The hacker group, known as the "Phantom Squad", have been tweeting about their plans to take down the PlayStationNetwork and XboxLive. What motivated them to take down PlayStation and Xbox was to prove that Microsoft and Sony don't pay enough heed towards cyber security. CNNMoney attempted to reach out to the "Phantom Squad" but they did not re-sieve a response. This is not the only time PlayStationNetwork have been bombarded with such claims.

Do Now: Writing Prompt (cloak)
If I were to be chosen to wear an invisible cloak for one day to perform a good deed, I would eavesdrop on potential criminals to see what they're converting or planning. Once I've gathered enough information, I would inform the police department. Majority of the time, police officers aren't able to gather such an excessive amount of information without being caught. However, with the invisible cloak, one would not have worry on such a matter. This could potentially save the lives of many, depending on how dark or sinister the criminal's plans are.
If given the opportunity, I would also enjoy assisting those who are being physically abused. It saddens me how physical abuse continues to grow each day. Hence as to why this trail must come to an end! With the invisible cloak, I could give these cruel monsters a piece of my mind! And who will believe them when they say and invisible force attacked them? It is important for these sinister beings to acknowledge the pain that they're afflicting onto others. What better way than to feed these creatures the taste of their own medicine, right?

Writing Prompt (new class)
If I were a teacher, I would instruct a self-defense class. Self-Defense is crucial to one’s safety! This class allows one to defend themselves from the physical abuse of others. Whether it's in the streets, at home, or even on school grounds, self-defense is needed. Without it, one may not be able to protect themselves from unstoppable forces.
The class will meet after school and are expected to behave in decorum. Fooling around and obstreperous behavior will not be permitted! Students will be provided with work out gear and other instruments needed for the class. We will go over simple techniques on how to approach and act in such a situation. However, as the school year ensues, the class will become more difficult. Over the course of the year, progression in the students will show by the increase in self-esteem, motivation, and coordination.

RSS Discussion Questions
- 1. Why did you select the sites you subscribed to?
- A: For my personal folder, I selected cooking, fashion, poetry, and inspirational quotes blogs because, each of these appeal to me. I enjoy cooking and creating new recipes and my personality shines through my fashion. When having a bad day, I turn to poetry and search through inspirational quotes. Both have the power to turn, once a sour day, sweet. I also selected those sites for my government and news files because, each of those sites were corporations that are government owned and sites that provide us with daily news.
- 2. Was it easy to find feeds and to subscribe to them?
- A: Yes, it was rather easy to find and subscribe to these websites.
- 3. Which sites were your favorites?
- A: My two favorite blogs are 'Fashion' and 'Inspirational Quotes'.
- 4. What else can you use RSS feeds for?
- A: You may use RSS feeds on Twitter, Facebook, Tumblr, etc. This allows one to share feed with their subscribers or followers.
- 5. How likely are you to continue to use RSS feeds in the future?
- A: As a matter of fact, I do see myself putting RSS feeds into use in the near future. I may have to share content for college purposes.
