This error occurs when your computer is not able to communicate with a server or server can't find what was requested. Since the decimal form of April 4 coincides with 404, this day has become 404 Day. April 4 is a special day for Electronic Frontier Foundation, that organizes a day of action against censorship in public and school libraries. According to the Children's Internet Protection Act (CIPA) public and school libraries have to censor and restrict access to the websites, that might include obscene or pornography images, harmful to minor images in exchange for federal funding. Unfortunately, the filters block the constitutionally protected websites, like the websites with vitally important health information, websites of art museums. Due to keyword blocking the filters also block the content, that can not be legally prohibited, for instance, medical information about breast cancer and chicken breasts. At the same time filters are not always reliable, since they do not block thumbnails of an adult sexual nature. 404 Day action against censorship in libraries should raise public awareness of filters and unnecessary restrictions. The bloggers and librarians can write about their experiences with blocked websites, Internet filtering and CIPA to help others find out how to deal with filters.[/SIZE][/I] [B][FONT=Arial][SIZE=6][COLOR=#ff8000]SU News[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/B] [IMG]http://sujuiceonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/fans_spring_game-300x300.jpg[/IMG] [B][URL='http://sujuiceonline.com/2016/04/04/three-takeaways-from-syracuse-footballs-spring-scrimmage/']Three Takeaways From the SU Football Spring Scrimmage (the juice; Salamone)[/URL][/B] [I]Despite the snow currently resting on the roof of the Carrier Dome, it is technically springtime in Syracuse.

No score was kept and the game was played in two halves with a five minute break in-between. There were no kick-offs as the offense would simply start with the ball at its on 20-yard line, 40-yard line or opponent's 20-yard line to simulate a red zone offense. Here are some of the biggest takeaways from the scrimmage. Offense Shines When Dino Babers was first announced as the new head of Syracuse football, the general assumption was that Babers, a coach with a long and extensive offensive background coming from Baylor and Bowling Green, would greatly improve and [URL='http://www.nunesmagician.com/2015/12/7/9862226/syracuse-football-first-impressions-of-new-orange-coach-dino-babers']speed up an Orange offense[/URL] that appeared dull and lifeless for long stretches of play last season.

Syracuse Played Fast, Plan to Play Faster Saturday was the first opportunity for fans and media to get an extended look at Syracuse's revamped uptempo offense. The [URL='http://www.sbnation.com/college-basketball/teams/syracuse-orange']Orange[/URL] finished with a total of 155 plays and would quickly get back to the line at the conclusion of each one. Despite the offense finishing with 13 touchdowns and a much more fast and exciting style of play compared to last year, Babers said he was still disappointed with the pace of the offense. ...[/I] [B][FONT=Arial][SIZE=6][COLOR=#ff8000]Other[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/B] [IMG]http://image.syracuse.com/home/syr-media/width620/img/schools_impact/photo/20069360-mmmain.jpg[/IMG] [B][URL='http://www.syracuse.com/schools/index.ssf/2016/04/school_closings_central_new_york_see_whats_closed_monday_april_4.html']School Closings in CNY After Weekend Snow (PS; Duncan)[/URL][/B] [I]Some schools have announced closings due to the weather.
