Paris in May 2011
While walking through the streets in Paris, enjoying the architectural beauty of that city, I kept noticing how human forms had been incorporated into building designs. Often these stone people - carved a century or more ago - were nude. Public art. In Europe, the human body is not a thing from which to avert one's eyes. The body is the body and is a very common subject for art.
I thought how rare this is in America. Publicly exposed skin. Male or female. In America there are more than a few folks that equate nudity in art as pornography's first cousin. Or, God forbid, in the same immediate family.
Porn may be difficult to define, but judges know it when they see it. Nudity is a lot easier to define. It is simply the human body - without the fabric. Heck, we were all born with our own body. Yes, it does tend to change a bit as we move from infancy to old age, but it is a gift that accompanies life. A happy birthday suit!
In late 2002, I worked with a professional model in the studio as an art subject for the camera. No client. Just me, an assistant and the model. I loved one of the resulting images, a silhouette of the reclining nude. A celebration of the human form if you will. I was doing the same thing artists have been doing for centuries. It was not about any kind of titillation. It was about beauty.
On the first day of every year, I place an eight-foot print in the storefront window of my studio. I made a print of the selected image and placed it on an easel the morning of Jan. 1, 2003. Spotlights on a timer lit her up every evening. And time went by.
It was the first week of March when a tall visitor in a coat and tie poked his head into my office. He identified himself as a detective of the Shreveport Police Department.
"I'm sure you know why I'm here," he said politely.
"I'm sure I do not know," I replied, whatever I was working on now instantly forgotten, my curiosity now on high.
"We received a complaint about your friend in the window."
Oh. Her.
A woman had called in an official complaint. I was informed - very politely and professionally - that it is illegal to display a female nipple in public in our fair city. (Eleven years later, I believe it still is.) I was given two choices: take the print down or cover the offending nipple. The detective was just doing his job and I bore no animosity toward him. I bore the complainant no animosity either. She probably saw herself just doing her job - upholding the law and protecting the city from publicly visible nipples.
I actually considered photographing a male nipple and Photoshopping it onto the female form. Bam! I would then be a law-abiding citizen!
My solution was good old-fashioned patriotic American. I attached a small American flag to cover the offending body part. After two months of exposure, my work-of-art photograph became a multi-media piece for the rest of 2003. Photograph and cotton fabric.
But still, not a stitch of clothing.

Is Zom-poc/post-apoc the genre for misanthropes?

I'm not saying that it "validates" misanthropy. I'm just reporting that I see what appears to be a correlation between a love of Poc fiction and a general shall we say "jaundiced" view of civilization.
Yeah, but you're coming at it from an extremely closed-minded and two-valued perspective. To you, it has to be either one thing or the other, without any room for compromise, and that's disingenuous and hardly fair to assume.
I'm honestly not saying that to be insulting; its just been my experience thus far that you make up your mind about something and then can't be swayed no matter how reasonable, plausible or just obvious the evidence/argument may be.
I myself was completely nonplussed by the idea of The Walking Dead until this past summer when I finally sat down to watch it; it's now one of my favorite shows. Not because it's about zombies (which I don't really care for, to be honest) or because its a post-apocalypse show, but because of the characters themselves and how they handle their predicament each week. Rick, Carl, Daryl, Merle, Michonne and Andrea are endlessly interesting to me in therms of what drives them while people like Shane, the Governor, Dale, Lori et al each have their own agendas or motivations and whether or not they coincide with everyone's primary goal - survival - is fun to watch.
I do not believe at all zombie fiction or "end of the world" stories are indicative or a leaning toward misanthropy at all. As we have seen it (this subgenre) is not for everyone, and that's ok. If you don't like it, that's not a bad thing nor does it mean that I'm a misanthrope because I enjoy it.

At first glance, Professor Severus Snape is an intimidating, sarcastic, unfriendly, and stern man. But don't be fooled; his frosty exterior hides a passionate heart and noble intentions. One of J.K. Rowling's more complex, layered characters, he evolves from anti-hero to full-on hero during the course of her books. Which makes him worthy of a playlist in our book.

Video: Chris O'Dowd and new wife Dawn Porter sparkle at premiere of his new film
Published 16/10/2012 | 05:00
ACTOR Chris O'Dowd was on the red carpet in London last night for a screening of his latest project, 'The Sapphires'.
The newlywed star arrived to the UK premiere of his new film last night with his wife, Dawn Porter, who wore a blue silk knee-length dress accessorised with black high heels. O'Dowd sported a sharp, dark suit.
The star recently revealed how he became an accidental sex symbol following the massive box office success of 'Bridesmaids', in which he plays the quirky Irish highway patrolman Officer Rhodes.
"After 'Bridesmaids', women know who I am," he said. He has currently just finished filming the second series of the highly successful 'Moone Boy' which he cowrote, playing the role of Sean Murphy, imaginary friend to 11-year-old Martin Moone, whose antics form the storyline.
Asked how much he resembles the young hero, he responds: "Martin's a more charming, witty version of me.
"I didn't have an imaginary friend but I did talk to myself a lot. I still do," he added.
O'Dowd (32) married journalist Dawn last month in front of guests including Brian O'Driscoll and Amy Huberman, 'Fr Ted' writer Graham Linehan and TV presenter Caroline Flack. The newly marrieds did not reveal the location of the ceremony with Dawn tweeting: "It was incredible. I promise to tell you all about it soon. For now it's just for us # perfect. Chris meanwhile wrote: "Chris O'Porter" and then posted a picture of himself and Dawn wearing tracksuits and wrote: "Just married!!!!".
The Sapphires was screened as part of the 56th BFI London Film Festival.
And O'Dowd will walk the red carpet in Dublin tonight, for the Irish premiere of 'The Sapphires', a musical comedy set in the 1960s, at the Savoy cinema on O'Connell Street

Description:AgCenter scientists have developed a new encapsulation formulation to increase the solubility of statin and icariin compounds. The increase in solubility was tens of thousands fold for both compounds according to lab experiments. This can greatly increase the bioavailability, or absorption into the body, of statin- and icariin-related drugs. Both concepts have been formulated into powders with relatively high drug loads. All ingredients used in the process are natural.

The CIEP Conversation Partner Program pairs American students, staff, and professors at UNI with students in the CIEP. Partners meet a minimum of one hour each week throughout the academic year. It is required that students speak English for one hour during the time they are together. This provides a cultural exchange for both partners, while one is learning English in a conversational setting. Students have the opportunity to improve English skills, experience American culture, and share their own culture with others. Students attend various athletic and cultural events together, make traditional food, visit local stores or watch movies together.
As of September 15, we are no longer taking applications for Fall conversation partners. All applications submitted will be deferred to the Spring 2016 semester. If you have questions, please contact: firstname.lastname@example.com. Thank you!

HOUSTON (AP) -- Pinch-hitter Hector Sanchez connected on the go-ahead RBI single in the ninth inning and the San Francisco Giants rallied for a 3-2 win over the Houston Astros on Tuesday night. The Giants were down 2-1 entering the ninth. Brandon Belt singled off Wesley Wright to start inning before pinch-hitter Joaquin Arias doubled down the left field line off Wilton Lopez (5-3) to score Belt and tie it 2-2. Sanchez completed the rally with his one-out line drive to center field that scored Arias. Houston took the lead on a wild pitch by Matt Cain in the eighth inning. The game was tied 1-all when Jimmy Paredes, in his first game since being recalled from Triple-A Oklahoma City, drew a walk. Brett Wallace singled before a sacrifice bunt by Jason Castro left runners at second and third. Then came the wild pitch in the dirt that bounced in between the legs of catcher Buster Posey and off the backstop. Posey went to get the ball and Paredes trotted home ahead of the throw and ove...

Cargill Must Pay Ex-Singapore Trader Bonus, Judge Says
Cargill Inc., the biggest agricultural company in the U.S., must pay a former Singapore-based trader $1.74 million in deferred bonuses, the appeals court in the Asian city ruled.
"The employee is entitled to the bonus," Judges Andrew Phang, Chao Hick Tin and Andrew Ang wrote in a 49-page ruling received yesterday.
Mano Vikrant Singh, who left Cargill in 2008, sued the company claiming his bonus was wrongly forfeited. Singh, who was paid a monthly salary of S$25,000 ($20,054), had a bonus of $3.2 million for the 2008 financial year, according to the ruling.
Cargill, which forbade some staff that left from continuing a career within the financial or commodity-trading industries for two years, sought to stifle competition with its restrictions, Singh had said in his complaint.
Cargill, based in Minneapolis, Minnesota, had demanded that Singh return confidential information he took from the firm, and said he breached his contract by setting up Xangbo Global Markets Pte.
The company said in a statement today it will abide by the decision.
Philip Jeyaretnam, Singh's lawyer, said the judgment established that the restraint of trade doctrine doesn't only apply to outright prohibition of post-employment competition.
Alain Monie
In a separate ruling, Singapore High Court Judge Lee Seiu Kin said that Ingram Micro Inc. Chief Executive Officer Alain Monie should be paid $4.56 million in incentives and bonus from his former employer Asia Pacific Resources International Ltd., a pulp and paper maker.
Monie, who was recruited to be the CEO of the paper company, was paid S$97,500 a month, according to the Aug. 7 verdict. He quit in October 2011 after about 14 months and sued the company for the payment owed under his employment contract.
"The source of the dispute lies in the poor manner in which the agreement was drafted," the judge wrote.
Asia Pacific Resources didn't reply to an e-mail seeking comment.
The cases are: Alain Monie v APRIL Management Pte. OS946/2011. Singapore High Court and Mano Vikrant Singh v Cargill TSF Asia Pte. OS103/2011. Singapore Court of Appeal.

This article tracks developments in computer-related criminal law and legal literature. An analysis of federal computer crime legislation and enforcement, and a discussion of state and international approaches are presented in the article. Finally, recent developments in this area are reviewed.
A. Defining Computer Crime
The rapid emergence of computer technologies has spawned a variety of new criminal behaviors and an explosion in specialized legislation to combat them.(1) While computer crimes include traditional crimes committed with a computer, the term also encompasses offenses against intellectual property and other crimes that do not fall within traditional criminal statutes. The diversity of computer-related offenses thus demands a broad definition. The Department of Justice defines computer crimes as "any violations of criminal law that involve[s] a knowledge of computer technology for their perpetration, investigation, or prosecution."(2)
Estimates of the predominant sources and extent of computer crimes vary. Many experts value losses due to computer crimes in the hundreds of millions and even in the billions of dollars.(3) While the exploits of youthful computer hackers have received the most press coverage,(4) experts maintain that insider crimes committed by disgruntled or greedy employees have caused far more damage.(5)
B. Types of Computer-Related Offenses
There are no "typical" computer-related crimes and no typical motive for committing such crimes.(6) Computer criminals can be teenage hackers, disgruntled employees, mischievous technicians, or international terrorists.(7) However, classifying computer-related crimes by considering the role the computer plays in a particular crime is possible.(8)
First, a computer may be the "object"(9) of a crime, meaning the computer itself is targeted. In this category are theft of computer processor time and computerized services. Second, the computer may be the "subject"(10) of a crime. In these cases, the computer is the physical site of a crime, or is the source of or reason for unique forms of assets lost.(11) The use of "viruses'"(12) and "logic bombs"(13) fit into this category. These crimes present novel legal problems because of the intangible nature of the electronic information that is the object of the crime.(14) Third, a computer may be an "instrument"(15) used to commit traditional crimes, such as theft, fraud, embezzlement, or trespass,(16) but in a more complex manner.(17) For example, a computer might be used to scan telephone codes automatically to make unauthorized use of a telephone system.(18)
A. Federal Criminal Code
Congress has treated computer-related crimes as distinct federal offenses since 1984 after passage of the Counterfeit Access Device and Computer Fraud and Abuse Law. …

Last week, I blogged about the need for our professional societies to more actively involve themselves in helping our profession, our departments, and our institutions grapple with the changes in historical scholarship brought about by the digital revolution. This week there has been an important development on this front. The AHA's ad hoc Committee on the Professional Evaluation of Digital Scholarship in History, which was formed in January 2014, issued draft Guidelines for the Professional Evaluation of Digital Scholarship in History. The committee is asking for feedback on this draft. They hope to put together a final version of these guidelines for approval by the AHA's Council during the last two weeks of May. I encourage anyone interested in these issues to read the draft and join the conversation.
Since the draft was only circulated online two days ago, my responses to it are very preliminary. I may blog about it again when I've had more time to think about it. But here are some immediate responses to the draft. Continue reading

Marilyn Reed got roped into her first virtual workout this past December, and she's been hooked ever since.
She signed up for a virtual race at the urging of a fitness-minded Facebook group. The concept is simple enough - participants sign up for a race of whatever distance and then run or walk that distance in their own local area, on their own time. Participants report their finishing times online to race organizers and later receive a medal, T-shirt or race bib in the mail.

Welcome to WebmasterWorld Guest from 184.108.40.206
Having had these two listings for some months now, I can't say I would pay $300 dollars to submit to the directory. Direct referrals are few and far between, despite my sites having great placement within the directory.
I haven't really noticed any residual effects from being listed, such as increased search engine rankings. It may have helped bump my PR up a bit, for whatever that is worth (not much, in my opinion).

Scratch that they sold it.
NM, They sold it. =*( I actually don't know how to delete this post.....
Re: Coleman 14' (Holder)
It looks like everything you need is there as far as I can see (unless the centerboard is missing for some reason). If the sails really are new and the motor runs, you would be getting a great deal. Ask him to set up the boat (mast/sails/rigging) and show you how everything works if you go to look at it. Small boat parts are not really to expensive. Usually it is the sails that are worn out on these old boats and are the most costly things to replace.
Re: Coleman 14' (Holder)
Cool thank you for the advice! Having him set it up is a good idea for more than one reason! Thanks!
Re: Coleman 14' (Holder)
New sails are "crisp" feeling. Check the standing rigging (wires that support the mast) for broken strands. Don't be put off by minor cracking in the fiberglass. It may only be superficial (gelcoat), but even if it isn't you can easily do fiberglass repairs yourself (its actually kind of fun to do).

Maverick cops now in the majority, says Scotland Yard head of personnel
Scotland Yard has launched a recruitment drive among the happily married and conventional rule-following community, as the the force has now become 'maverick cop heavy'.
'There are too many cops pulling stunts, tearing up the rule book and getting results their own way,' said Bernard Hogan-Howe. 'They have got particularly irksome since the rule book went digital and they find that just deleting it is not enough and they have to go round wiping the back ups it on everyone else's computers.'
Nobody on the force imagined that the Human Resources department would be forced to break convention like this. But as Met Commissioner told the officer who came up with this solution, 'You may not play it by the rules Johnson, but you are the best goddamn personnel officer this force has got!'

Today, more than 10 years after the adoption of Regulation 2790/1999, much has changed. First, while the adoption of Regulation 279/1999 marked a more favorable reception of economic insights in EU competition law, those insights have, to some extent, subsequently been laid down in the Article 81(3) Notice of 2004 and have nowadays become commonplace. This is despite a somewhat ill-defined preference for empirical research (as opposed to theoretical insights), in particular in the area of resale price maintenance, and the continuing treatment of a number of specific vertical restraints as hardcore restrictions that do not necessarily decrease consumer welfare.
Second, following the adoption of Regulation 1/2003, the enforcement of competition law in the area of vertical restraints has become predominantly a matter for national competition agencies. In fact, since the entry into force of Regulation 2790/1999, there have only been a few Commission decisions specifically dealing with vertical restraints. But with the decentralizing of the overview of these types of restraints to national competition agencies, the risk of diverging analytical approaches and prioritization approaches increases. For instance, during the discussions on what would become Regulation 330/2010, four member states questioned whether resale price maintenance should continue to be treated as a hardcore violation.
Three additional developments seem to have had a clear impact on the new regime for vertical restraints...

- An ISBN is the 10 or 13 digit number, usually printed on the back of a book with a bar code, that serves as a unique identifier for the book.
- Searching by ISBN is the best way to search because it will get you the exact title and edition that you need.
- Many professors include the ISBN on their syllabi or in their course management system.
If you don't have the ISBN, try a title or author search.
Title search
- Enter all words in the title you are looking for. The search engine will try to find books that have all the words you entered in the title. Leave out words such as "a," "an," or "the."
- When including edition, use numeric values. For example, "1st edition" instead of "first edition."
Author search
- Enter all or part of the author name you are looking for.
- You do not need to enter a first name, but if there are a lot of books by authors with the same last name, it may help to narrow the results.
- You can enter the name in any order such as "John Smith" or "Smith John." Avoid using a comma since it has a special meaning in the search.
Keyword search
- You can search by keyword but this approach is not recommended as it will likely return a large set of results.
- If you want to search by keyword, try a combination of author and keyword. For example, "Warren Accounting" where "Warren" is the author and "Accounting" is the keyword.
To refine your results, use the filtering/sorting options
- Filter options include product type and discipline area. Sort options include alphabetical sort (ascending or descending) and copyright year (ascending or descending).

Mainly my question is : there was ships going from Genova to all the world? or just few itineraries? also I will like to know where I can find a list of ships who make the voyage between ITaly and southamerica (with and without stoping in the US) between 1850 & 1879
Once again thanks a lot for supporting us in our quests .
Over 25 million Italians have emigrated between 1861 and 1960 with a migration boom between 1871 and 1915 when over 13,5 million emigrants left the country for European and overseas destinations.

More penguins to squeeze: Mary Franklin on leaving Lucasfilm for ReedPOP
We learned yesterday that Lucasfilm event lead Mary Franklin is heading to ReedPOP. And while we'll still see her at Celebration – they produce the con and are under contract at least through Anaheim – it's still a little bittersweet. Mary herself wrote about it today.
In addition to Celebration, ReedPOP puts on NYCC, C2E2, Emerald City Comicon and a wide selection of international events.
Celebration Anaheim on track to be "the biggest one yet"
Celebration Anaheim (or, as known to us rebels, Celebration VII) now has a poster, revealed on Hero Complex. And it looks like sales are good:
"It's going to be really interesting, because we are way ahead with ticket sales from where we usually are this far out," said Mary Franklin, senior events and fan relations lead for Lucasfilm. "I feel safe saying this is going to be the biggest one yet."
Mary goes on to play coy about The Force Awakens stuff at the con, but… We know, Mary. We know.
Video: Gareth Edwards accepts ALS ice bucket challenge
We've already seen J.J. Abrams and Mary Franklin (first at the Yoda fountain!) do the challenge, but what's really interesting here is that it's pretty much the first official Lucasfilm recognition (Star Wars uploaded the video) that Rian Johnson is on board. No one really doubts it at this point: Johnson's rep has confirmed, he's clearly had permission to be out there talking like it's a done deal, but the lack of an official announcement has been puzzling.
Celebrities are doing the ice bucket challenge to raise money to fight Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, also known as Lou Gehrig's disease.
First look at Lucasfilm's SDCC pavilion
On StarWars.com this morning, Mary Franklin shares some pictures from the Lucasfilm Pavilion at San Diego Comic-Con. (Though not the one above – that's from her Twitter.) The con officially begins tonight, with the Rebels panel on Thursday and three book panels on Friday.
Episode VII news is not expected, unless it comes via the grapevine (or Mary's video wall, but that's a long shot.) And while the rumor mill is saying we might get an announcement of a Princess Leia comic from Marvel, I'm not sure where that would happen: At the A New Dawn panel, which seems focused on Del Rey? None of Marvel's own panels seem to fit the bill.
In any case, don't forget about the Rebels screening and HitFix party!
Video: The life and times of the real Chopper
Our pal Mary Franklin has a strong supporting role in this video about the real-life Chopper and his travels! (There's a new Rebels clip at the end as well.)
SDCC: Peek at Her Universe's new booth, Lucasfilm's Pavilion
With preview night at San Diego Comic-Con nigh, Her Universe posted a photo of their new mega-booth. And over at the StarWars.com blog, Mary Franklin shares a look at the Lucasfilm Pavilion. Galactic Hunter has pics from tonight as well.
And here are the Mara and Jaina shirts! For real!

May the 4th: Mary Franklin is Her Universe's Fangirl of the Day!
Who's an appropriate choice to be Her Universe's Fangirl of the Day on May 4th? Lucasfilm's Mary Franklin is not only Club Jade's favorite bartending visionary, but she's been responsible for almost every single Celebration and the Bantha Tracks newsletter. (Which, granted, may be the more impressive feat overall, but hey: We love our bar.)
You'll want to check out Mary's blog entries on the StarWars.com blog, particularly her series going behind the scenes at Celebration, which even features a few other Jaders here and there.
And of course you've been keeping up with the Fangirls of the Day, right?
Celebration VI schedule to be revealed in app first
Actual news in an email update? Refreshing! According to an email sent to CVI attendees about an hour ago, the program schedule will be coming to the Celebration mobile app first. No word on when the reveal will happen – early next week, perhaps? – but consider yourselves warned.
One thing we do know about the schedule: It's 9 feet long. And it looks like this.
Extra credit if you can figure out what this means:
Math clue for 2 new CVI programs: Multiply me by 2, or remove the zero and add a D.

SDCC is nearly here: Are you ready?
SDCC kicks off tonight with Preview Night, while those of us at home hang on Twitter and our RSS feeds for tidbits from the floor (and brace for the floods that'll be unleashed tomorrow.) Until then, here's what Star Wars fans need to know. (Besides the panel schedule!)
Home base. On the Star Wars Blog, Mary Franklin made her debut and then dropped some hints about what we can expect to see from Lucasfilm at the con. Here's a hint: Snakes. Here's a closer look.
UPDATE: Mary has also made her debut on Twitter as, fittingly, @MaryLFL! To find other Star Wars luminaries, check out our Twitter guide.
Pregaming. Course of the Force coverage marches on from San Diego – and we had a few of our own on the course yesterday.
Expanded Universe. We've already got the basics on Dark Horse's Star Wars, so we're on the edge of our seats for Del Rey's contribution at the The Future of Star Wars Publishing panel on Friday. In the meantime, check out the Del Rey booth, with a Scoundrels photo opportunity. (That'll also be at CVI!)
Merchandise. Here's a handy list of all the Star Wars exclusives and debuts at the con. I hope that Chewy Messenger Bag makes it to CVI! Apparently Kotobukiya's Jaina Solo statue will be there?
On that note, Bleeding Cool's Kate Kotler talked to Ashley Eckstein about what we'll be seeing from Her Universe this week, and details on the new Doctor Who and Star Trek lines. Plus a look at their new Artoo charm!

Got a couple of millions in your pocket? Fully fund the next Kanye West film in exchange for a cameo—if you think that's a fair exchange.
February 5, 2012 4:41 by p.deleon
"Now I ain't saying she a gold digger…But she ain't messin' with no broke niggas…Get down girl, go head get down. Get down girl, go head, get down"
Looks like Kanye West doesn't fall far from his songs. We are in a bit of a daze at just how brazen certain rumoured intentions of the rapper have with the Middle East. The National this Sunday reports on reports from those in the know, that West is considering making a 30-minute short film that would "bridge the cultural divide and break misconceptions" set to be filmed in either Abu Dhabi, Doha or Dubai.
The hushed whispers suggest that this moviemaking project would be quite like Runaway, the 34-minute art-house film released to promote West's album: My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy.
Kanye is no stranger to the region. He has performed in Dubai and has made an appearance at the Abu Dhabi Formula One Grand Prix in 2010. Sources tell The National Kanye fell in love with the region and this 'love' was instrumental in his decision to film here: "His reps were discussing how he basically fell in love with the area after the F1 show and it became one of his favourite parts of the world."
Kanye loves the Gulf? Who is surprised? Think of all the culture, the history, the sand and…we are forgetting something for sure, oh, of course, all the money.
Oh yes, the Gulf is rolling in the green stuff, and it would seem that is part of the appeal (read: the entire appeal) for choosing a location: "The way they pitched it would be for whichever territory they end up producing it in to completely fund it. And from what I've heard, there's been a lot of interest," said the source, adding that there might be cameo appearances for those who had invested in it."
Woah, what is that? A cameo appearance for fully funding a film—what on earth could be a more rewarding exchange, right? The sad part is, Kipp doesn't doubt that there actually will be a lot of people interested in throwing cash on a project like this. How can anyone be okay with this?
[UPDATE: A reader familiar with the situation has confirmed that Kanye West's team have been in talks with production companies in Abu Dhabi. However, he reports that "funding in exchange for a cameo" has not been part of discussions at all. "The National got it wrong. They (Kanye's people) are speaking with various production companies here. That's it," he wrote.]
We are reminded of the words exchanged between Morris Townsend and his well-to-do but rather dull love interest in Henry James's classic: Washington Square. Townsend, who is of a working-class background, asks, if it isn't a fair exchange, his good look, youth and charm for his lady's money?
Perhaps on the larger scheme of things, it is a fair exchange—yet the idealist in Kipp can't help but wish that local art houses and producers look to perfecting their own special brand of art to get recognition instead of tacking on an American pop idol for the same.
Besides, as an investor, would you much rather put your money in a project that you believe in? Well I suppose unless you were a young buck of an investor who's a fan of self-loving 'entertainers' who frequently throws Diva tantrums and think themselves god-like and untouchable.

Obama Administration Will Soon Announce New Pot Policy; Meanwhile Arrests Continue
Categories: Cannabis Chronicles
|Attorney General Eric Holder
"We are, I think, in the last states of that review and are trying to make the determination as to what the policy ramifications are going to be, what our international ramifications are," Holder said, adding that an announcement would be made "relatively soon."
One thing that's clear is despite decades of war against marijuana, pot's popularity continues to climb. While there's been an overall drop in usage of most other drugs, teenage use of marijuana remains at an all-time high, and voters in more states are passing medical marijuana laws each year. But rather than give up the war on weed, statistics show that the government continues to stubbornly prosecute marijuana cases.
In fact, according to a recent Huffington Post article, annual marijuana arrests nationwide have more than doubled since 1980, and now cost U.S. taxpayers $10 billion a year. Even more disturbingly, in 2011, the year the Obama administration began cracking down on California's medpot industry, there were more marijuana arrests--663,032, to be exact--than for all violent crimes in America.
One factor that may explain the government's fondness for pot busts, is that when murderers, rapists and child molestors are taken off the streets, there's no asset forfeiture process that pays the bills. However, when the government busts a marijuana growing operation, the DEA can seize the property and fund its budget with the proceeds. In fact, as I recently outlined in one particularly egregious case in Anaheim, the DEA filed $1.5 million forfeiture proceedings against the landlord--a computer engineer and his dentist wife--of a building where an undercover cop used a doctor's note to purchase exactly $37 worth of medical pot at a dispensary that no longer exists.
With that kind of high-yield profit margin, don't expect the Obama administration to abandon the war on marijuana just because of a few pesky voters.
