FILTHY LUCRE



"Congratulations, America: Even as our currency continues to falter, it takes home top honors in at least one category—having the highest amounts of trace cocaine of any bills on the planet. This according to a new study by those party guys at Trends in Analytical Chemistry, which found traces of the drug on nearly every bill in circulation in every country. It bears noting that currency in Germany and Ireland showed significantly lower concentrations, presumably because their citizens prefer their countries' native liquid vices."

SONY FILM CLASSIC: PERSEPOLIS



I was very much skeptical on watching an animated foreign film in black and white for approximately 50% of the view time, it brought back too many memories of the animated television series of Madeline. Though skeptical of the film, at first, my initial views were swayed by my girlfriends persuasiveness. I try to be opened minded about things and it may of appeared to be hard to attend to at first glance but it was worth it. The film, Persepolis, is a 2007 animation based on Marjane Satrapi's autobiographical graphic novel sharing the title. The film was written and directed by Satrapi with Vincent Paronnaud, french comic artist. The story follows a young girl, Marji, as she comes of age against the sceneries of turmoil during the Iranian Revolution, circa 1980. The Revolution takes a turn for the worst with Islamic fundamentalists, the beliefs held by those in movement, taking power and creating a new tyrannic theocracy themselves. The story concludes with Marji as a matured young expatriate of Iran. I give this film an 8/10.

"W." THE MOVIE




Directed by Oliver stone, The movie "W." is a chronicle on the life and presidency of George W. Bush Whether you love him or hate him, there is no question that George W. Bush is one of the most controversial public figures in recent history. In an unprecedented undertaking, the life of our 43rd President has been taken to the big screen. "W." takes viewers through Bush's eventful life his struggles and triumphs, how he found both his wife and his faith, and of course the critical days leading up to Bush's decision to invade Iraq. The movie is posted to be released within the last two weeks of October this year and no specific date has been set at this point. Warning! this cinema wont stimulate the box office, other cinematic venues or the economy.

ETHYL

-The buffer between reality and a good night. Has been known to make people seem more attractive and make obviously stupid idea's seem like good sense.



-I ended up being completely sober tonight reading news articles that I usually forget about. This one caught my attention mainly because it was a topic I would definitely partake in festivities for tonight. I read about a board of college presidents from about 100 of the best-known U.S. universities, including Duke, Dartmouth and Ohio State, that are calling on lawmakers to consider lowering the drinking age from 21 to 18, arguing that current laws actually encourage dangerous binge drinking on campus, word? The movement called the Amethyst Initiative began quietly recruiting presidents more than a year ago to provoke national debate about the U.S. drinking age, which is among the highest in the world. The Amethyst Initiative concluded that because the drinking age is that high the probability of under aged drinking is increased and the amount of alcohol under aged drinkers consume is higher because it is illegal, influencing the need to take advantage of whats available. I'm all for being able to get a legal alcohol at my age considering I'm 18 and a sophomore in college. For the majority my age, lowering the drinking age to 18 would influence a younger demographic, highschool. I only fear that the majority of underaged drinking cases, once the age is lowered, will be reported in deaths and accidents. Until then il decide to advocate. :]

GNARLS BARKLEY- WHO'S GONNA SAVE MY SOUL

Awesome video directed by Chris Milk. Some may not be connotative to the theme of this video and some may be empathic towards it. It does show more video to the point than music, besides that, it is considerably good. Take the time to view and enjoy.

BEAUTIFUL DECAY

I remember Beautiful Decay magazines from 2 years ago when we were just putting our own ideas together. Their definitive art and design publication gave us the motivation and creativity to express our own work, even when we had little knowledge in design programs and getting our name out . The magazine and online articles were our first exposure sourcebook that revealed innovation, talent, the DO's and DONT's, and learning the market. They hold up their name well with a vast creative content and most importantly, QUALITY CONTROL.
