Medicinal Marijuana.

 

Marijuana is a misunderstood plant. Demonized for long ago without any scientific basis thus hinder its true potential as a natural medication with very few negative side effects. Marijuana is a natural remedy and should be available to everyone's reach. The active chemical compound (THC) is defined as Schedule I Substance with no medical benefit, severely restricting its access to the public, but study after study this has being probed wrong. Weed has medicinal value. 

Check this video from CNN, Dr Sanjay Gupta discuss the use of medicinal marijuana in his upcoming documentary: Weed. Due to be air on CNN this Sunday august 11, 2013.

 

 

 

The Incredible case of Alex Echols. 

Eleven-year-old Alex Echols is severely autistic kid, and his doctor said Alex's self-destructive behavior is brought on by Tuberous Sclerosis, a rare, genetic disorder that affects about 50,000 people in the U.S.  The disorder causes unregulated growth of non-malignant tissue in organs. In Alex's case, his neurologist said growths in Alex's brain have led to seizures and autism.

What is killing us?

In the united states, there are 178 substances that have been declared illegal. They are supposed to be so dangerous that they are forbidden even for medical research. Many of these have never cause death or physically damage.  Every year, just in the U.S.A tobacco kills 430, 000 people, alcohol 200, 000. in 1999 140, 000 died from side effects or reactions to prescription drugs. Legal drugs use result in the 15 percent of all hospital admission, a cost of $136 BILLIONS ( with a big B)  in medical cost ( with much of taxpayers ended up paying). Marijuana, so far has zero deaths related.

5 Bizarre things from Japan.

 

Japan is, by all means, a very interesting place. The culture, its art and the people makes this whole island truly unique. The motherland of Dragon Ball and Pokemon, has tons of crazy things to offer. Like Bart Simpson once said: "your sparkling, whale-free seas"  and crowned by the majestic view of Godzilla. there are here a few things of why Japan is such different from the western eye. Enjoy

5. Fast Food.

Craving for a massive Burger King NY Pizza Burger ? Which is beef patty topped with pepperoni, mozzarella and marinara sauce. Stacked on a 9-1/2-inch sesame seed bun.

                                      Mama Mia !  or like Japanese say  マンマミーア!

or maybe a surf and turf sandwich which is a Wendy’s Burger with a beef patty topped with lobster, lettuce, tomato, and onion. It is a"premium" Wendy's creation. This burgers are sold for about $16.

                                   Mr Krab? noooooooo !

Wanna get fancier? try the Foie Gras Burger

Chopped and fried duck liver. What can else you can ask for ?

4. How the japanese park their car.

Japan has serious problems with traffic, it can be so jammed that a single ride from Tokyo International Airport to a 20 miles destination, takes so long that can cost up to 400dlls. No-fucking-kidding (無クソ - 冗談!) . So in a way the alleviate this situation, Japanese Engineers create a fantastic way to park the cars, and leave the streets unclogged for the cars go freely.

 

3. Bicycle parking.

Since is quite problematic driving cars in Tokyo, the japanese people changed their stir wheel to bicycles, but now thousands of bicycles need a parking spot. How it was solved? in a total badass way.

 

2. Hentai.

Japanese people may seem a little bit bizarre regarding sex - their national average is  of 2.79 sexual intercourse per month- so; in order for them not lose their shit and brains altogether they use a lot of imagination and porn; not the porn that we mere mortals are used to know. Japanese standard includes: Witches, dragons, demons, end of the world and then: boom !! sexual scene. The fantasy that rivals  your imagination. Either on printed or video formats.

There are several examples that you can browse yourself. 

1. Used Underwear Vending Machine.

This one is a little hard to confirm; a sorta of twisted urban legend, or just came out from a hyper mind with lots of imagination and spare time. Goes like this: During the 60’s and 80’s there was a boom on vending machines all thru Japan, nowdays you can find so many products in them: canned bread, eggs, beer, noodles, hot dogs, fries and pizza. Yes, there is a hot dog vending machine.

 

    Crispy? 

then naturally came clothing vending machines, but in Akihabara , which is Tokyo's anime, manga and electronics heaven, there are asome of these that sell  in a vacuum sealed bags: used underwear from high school girls. How do you know that you are buying the soiled underwear of a gorgeous woman and not from a fat, hairy dude that will do anything to get the money that desperately needs ? There is a picture inside the bag that shows the lady in uniform.

The reason of a vacuum sealed bag? well, it seals the “aroma” of the panty bearer.

There is a video that you can check, is from the late Attack of the Show from g4tv.com. I can’t say is accurate but way too weird for not mention it in this post.

 

 

Fact: If you get turn on with the smells of soiled underwear, dirty socks or used clothes, you have mysophilia.  Fucking pervert.

Just Madonna naked. Asking to be take home.

Back on the days, MTV was a new platform in which music became more than sound: was an animated story with rhythm,  a vision of the artist; and with the help of the director, gave a whole new meaning to the song, Madonna and Michael Jackson where one of the first artists that gave a "face" to the cover and where a hit - Madonna's Like a virgin and Erotica videos you can see the progress of the artist and Michael Jackson's Thriller, stills make people move around like a dancing zombies- something that was not gonna be able to achieved without the great value of the production that was show in these videos. 

Now MTV became a host of reality TV, dumb teenagers that don't know how to use a condom and stupid kids that are so high in all the vapor emanating from the chemicals used for having a great hair that  they act like horny monkeys. 

In order to find a great video, we gotta do some research, and these are a few of the best and shocking-music-videos. 

Enjoy it

 

#5 Madonna, Erotica:

Madonna had some ups and downs in her career, but she knows how to use her image, this soon grandmother and the primordial MILF made a lot of noise in this video; wanna se her experimenting her sexuality and sodomizing some random people? Check this video Directed by Fabian Doren. 

 

 

Some deleted scenes:

#4. Spiritualized; Hey Jane !

Spiritualized is great rock band, so far they have released seven albums in a period of fourteen years, very prolific, their first videocover of the 2012 release, huh?: hey Jane, is directed by AG Rojas and is fantastic; a ten minutes video and  worth every damn second of it. Summarizing in just a plain and simple way: this is a love history. 

 

Spiritualized 'Hey Jane' from Somesuch & Co. on Vimeo.

 

#3. Icky Blossoms. Cycle. 

How you can make porn better? if you mixed some porn videos with the music of the Omaha electronic band Icky Blossoms, directed by David Dean Burkhart, the edition most likely was exhausting, but somebody had to do it. 

 

#2. Michael Jackson's Thriller. 

This video is old, but like a good wine, it just get better with time. This iconic short film is a landmark for a lot of us, every time we hear the powerful base we are transported to the the movies, were Michael and her girl were watching the scary flick, went out, then got lost, a cemetery, then MJ is motherfucking werewolf, then dancing zombies, then doing the "thriller" and then is a dream, or isn't? The Anthem of Halloween, directed by John David Landis. Awesomeness. 

 

 

#1. The Prodigy, Smack my bitch up!

A timeless classic, a night that involves alcohol, clubs, drugs, great music, and strippers, a MUST WATCH. Banned by MTV in the 90's. directed by Jonas Arkenlud.

Fantastic video, enjoy.

 

 

Extra: Nine Inch Nails, Closer

This video is weird, when Trent Reznor was polishing this "industrial techno music" the lyrics had to be as enigmatic possible to pair with the gritty music: I wanna fuck you like an animal..../my whole existence is flaw/You get me closer to God...

What the heck does that mean? Well, put in context a crucified monkey, a pig's head, and a bunch of old farts looking at you while naked, floating on the air: is a pretty shocking video. Mark Romanek as the director. Pretty weird, pretty good. 

  did I miss some video that you liked ? 

Fuck it, it is my blog, I show whatever I want. 

To Watch, to think, to enjoy.

 

 

I have no special talent. I am only passionately curious.

 

Once I heard that a great photo is like a good story if it needs further explanation, means is not that good. Pictures have a powerful message, because it explains everything without words, maybe a very subtle meaning, maybe there is not purpose at all, but in many levels, consciously or unconsciously, talks directly to our psyche, and like it or not, this communication is open, and shows us the past, and makes us remember a nostalgic feeling; because it does not matter how gray, black or white those events were. Those dull colors always surpass the uncertainty of  a bright future.

Isn't ?

 

Amor en tiempos de cólera. ( love in hateful times) 

 

There is always time to show some love.

It’s of a couple kissing in the middle of a riot in Vancouver following the Canucks’ 4-0 loss to Boston in Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Finals. Hey, whatever turns you on. Some people like chocolates, some like porn, some are in the middle of a protest, surrounded by cops, in the middle of the street with tear gas. Why not?

Hitler and Pope Pius XII. The past will always come to hunt you down.

From The Hitler's Pope: The Secret History of Pius XII. On March 2, 1939: Cardinal Eugenio Pacelli was sworn in as Pope Pius XII; four days later (as Hitler’s tanks are rolling into Poland), Pacelli wrote a letter to Hitler: "To the illustrious Herr Aldolf Hitler, Fuhrer and chancellor of the German Reich! Here at the beginning of our pontificate we wish to assure you that we remain devoted to the spiritual welfare of the German people entrusted to your leadership. During the many years we spent in Germany, we did all in our power to establish harmonious relations between church and state. Now that the responsibilities of our pastoral function have increased our opportunities, how much more ardently do we pray to reach that goal? May the prosperity of the German people and their progress in every domain come, with Gods help, to fruition!"

Bravery.

The future is one day closer !

 

 

 

This has been a very interesting week in technology, all because the Consumer Electronic Show was held in Las Vegas , and in plain english  is the version of porn fest for geeks but instead of beautiful women with 38 kkk breast, or girls with the amazing talent of having three oranges on their mouth at the same time. You will take  peek on sexy and hot electronics, full of shiny  devices, which are a promise to do amazing stuff. perhaps an iPad killer?  maybe and iPhone killer? And where we can see the future of naughty, naughty electronics.

This CES you can notice an interesting shift, there is not a breakthrough hardware, - no Xbox 720, no PS4- instead we have a beautiful oled tv by Samsung and LG which look absolutely fantastic, or Nokia's Lumia 900 phone, from Nokia, running on windows 7 Mango OS, LTE phone, 4.3 inch AMOLED Screen with a Carl Zeiss Lens - the best optics in its class-  ATT will be the carrier, that means a very expensive data plan. No price or release date yet.

 

 

This phone might be the make or break deal to Nokia.

 

Just a revamp, improve, get better, faster, ala iPhone 4s.

As well you can find very quirky devices like Olly, that can be to your computer, each time that there is an update from any social network, there is an scent ( of your choice) that will alert you. Receiving your updates are gonna be fun, but honestly I think these apparatus just keep the stereotype about geeks and personal hygiene, or flatulance.

Hmmm, second thought, I am in!!!!

 

 

Now you can be connected all day long to the net, playing Skyrim and not need of taking a shower. 

 

 The three more promising devices to watch these CES 2012 are:

 

LG OLED TV, 55 inch, 3D.

This  is a gorgeous OLED TV of 55 inches, from LG, -55EM9600-  that is coming out this year hopefully before december 21, you know, doomsday-  the thing about this tv is that the screen has an amazing display because of the use of the Organic Low Emission Diode (OLED) which gives a more natural, vivid colors, and the device thickness is just 4mm ( .15 inch) . Is just amazing.

 

Why the need of going out, when reality looks way more better throughout this tv.

This is the working model, coming out this fall, it is beautiful indeed. 

Bundle with apps, internet and 3D in its whole glory.  No prices revealed yet, but the rumor is about $8000 dlls. 

 Makerbot Replicator 3D printer. 

This Machine is is very promising,  is a 3D printer,(yeah, 3D printer), that will allow you, well, print about everything you want. Imagine that you, by mistake dropped you iPad and the aluminum body got messed up. Well, you go to your house, turn on  the MakerBot Replicator 3D and just get some aluminum form your sodas can and Voila , your fresh and new iPad body is there! Maybe with the time just some sand, electronic sensors and dale! a new replacement for your tv screen and or iPhone, tablet, gadget and whatever needs a fixture now you can print it.  I can see this printer in any graphic designer office and even architecture firms to have escalated miniatures of their creations, to minimize costs and maximize earnings. 

 

I can print lego pieces and create sick designs now! 

This printer just works now with plastic, hey but there is  always a first step, the price of this device in one color $ 1799 dlls, two colors, $ 1,999 dlls.  

This reminds me a lot of a human tissue printer. An amazing idea as well, with a altruistic goal. Check the video, is fantastic

 

 

 

Razer Project, Fiona. 

Video games are a scape of reality: a place where you can be the hero ,the villain, kill innocents, make some havoc, be a sorcerer, a soldier. It's an virtual reality, where most likely, there is gonna be a happy life. In reality, we know how everything is gonna end.

From that primordial fear, I present you the Razer Project, Fiona. 

 

 

Looks like and IPad with Playstation move controllers attached to it.

A hybrid console Windows 8 tablet, aimed to play pc video games , with an Intel processor i7 CPU - the most powerful processor for this specific task. With this steer wheel design - not of the best on my humble opinion-  hard core gamers, will be able to play pc games on the  go. With a resolution of 1280 x 800, be willing to pay the $1,000. 

 

What you think about these devices? A Need  or just for showing off? or the line between these attributes is getting thinner? 

Speak Your mind.

Sex and Intelligence.

Why smarties have less sex?

This question was proposed by Lauren F. Friedman to some scholars about why " Intelligence is negatively associated with sex frequency" as said Rosemary Hopcroft a sociologist from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. 

Looks like people with higher education  generally have a lower number of sexual partners, example: high School diplomas degrees get approximately eight sexual partners per year, College degrees no more than four. 

Feeling to close right now that book of Advance Finances, or Calculus and go to the closest bar and show the world and yourself that what are you are reading is completely wrong and you are able to get vagina/ass/penis? - whatever you like- and does not matter how nerd you are!

Wait, before you close the book -or turn off that iPad you fucking geek  -and get into a world of of carnal pleasures and sin, you might want to know why is this happening in your virgin life. Guess what, there might be a perfect reason for you being in this way now. 

You can blame your genes. Yes; you are right, I said blame mother nature. 

Fuck you mother nature for make me nerd ! You and your hot branches and those sexy green leafs 

Looks like the behaviour regarding our sexual life is learned in our teenage stage. A very high number of college freshman still virgin, specially females and this is correlated with the pursuit of a degree because if you engage in an active sexual life the chances of getting pregnant are higher thus getting the college career becomes harder to reach. 

But this lack of action has it's long term purpose. When you are in college you use a lot of energy and resources, but then the rewards are a better income, a more stable way of life that it can be channelled to the offspring and thus perpetuate the species. Thus deep inside in our mind we are drive by the solely idea of keep our species safe. 

" Money, not intelligence, helps men have more sex" Hopcroft says. " in and of itself, intellect won't do the trick but intelligence helps them get the money". 

Do you homework. !

Great animation.

I am still amazed about how great histories can be told by images, but some special rarities, like The Backwater Gospel by: By: Bo Mathorne, Tue T. Sørensen, Arthur Gil Larsen, Rie C. Nymand, Mads Simonsen, Thomas H. Grønlund, Esben Jacob Sloth, Martin Holm-Grevy; is an amazing  example about how new animation is an essential part of this history telling, it is embedded with  the ideas of the director, the crew and projects this amazing result. A short animated film.

Enjoy.
