Alchemist
Alchemist is a beast...his beats are nutz to me...I am a huge fan of his...I remember hearing Jadakiss "The Champ is Here" mixtape and he had a track on there that Alchemist premiered...but they only played like the first verse and then cut it off...i was mad as hell...lol....but the beat was retarded...it's something about Alchemist to me...he gives street niggas beats that enable them to paint vivid pictures...it's only a few that can actually do that on a consistent basis...I would love for my album to be produced by Alchemist, NO ID and Don Cannon...I know that would be fire...
So if any of those producers are reading this....GET AT ME....

Old Weed...LOL
World's oldest marijuana stash totally busted
Nearly two pounds of still-green plant material found in a 2,700-year-old grave in the Gobi Desert has just been identified as the world's oldest marijuana stash, according to a paper in the latest issue of the Journal of Experimental Botany.
A barrage of tests proves the marijuana possessed potent psychoactive properties and casts doubt on the theory that the ancients only grew the plant for hemp in order to make clothing, rope and other objects. They apparently were getting high too.
Lead author Ethan Russo told Discovery News that the marijuana "is quite similar" to what's grown today. "We know from both the chemical analysis and genetics that it could produce THC (tetrahydrocannabinolic acid synthase, the main psychoactive chemical in the plant)," he explained, adding that no one could feel its effects today, due to decomposition over the millennia.
Russo served as a visiting professor at the Chinese Academy of Sciences Institute of Botany while conducting the study. He and his international team analyzed the cannabis, which was excavated at the Yanghai Tombs near Turpan, China. It was found lightly pounded in a wooden bowl in a leather basket near the head of a blue-eyed Caucasian man who died when he was about 45.
"This individual was buried with an unusual number of high value, rare items," Russo said, mentioning that the objects included a make-up bag, bridles, pots, archery equipment and a kongou harp. The researchers believe the individual was a shaman from the Gushi people, who spoke a now-extinct language called Tocharian that was similar to Celtic.
Scientists originally thought the plant material in the grave was coriander, but microscopic botanical analysis of the bowl contents, along with genetic testing, revealed that it was cannabis.
The size of seeds mixed in with the leaves, along with their color and other characteristics, indicate the marijuana came from a cultivated strain. Before the burial, someone had carefully picked out all of the male plant parts, which are less psychoactive, so Russo and his team believe there is little doubt as to why the cannabis was grown.
What is in question, however, is how the marijuana was administered, since no pipes or other objects associated with smoking were found in the grave.
"Perhaps it was ingested orally," Russo said. "It might also have been fumigated, as the Scythian tribes to the north did subsequently."
Although other cultures in the area used hemp to make various goods as early as 7,000 years ago, additional tomb finds indicate the Gushi fabricated their clothing from wool and made their rope out of reed fibers. The scientists are unsure if the marijuana was grown for more spiritual or medical purposes, but it's evident that the blue-eyed man was buried with a lot of it.
"As with other grave goods, it was traditional to place items needed for the afterlife in the tomb with the departed," Russo said.
The ancient marijuana stash is now housed at Turpan Museum in China. In the future, Russo hopes to conduct further research at the Yanghai site, which has 2,000 other tombs.
WOW!!! If I was the dude that found it I would have smoked it....I don't believe that bullshit they talkin about how it might not get the same effect cuz it decomposed...I don't believe you..You need more people...lol...have you ever had an L left over from 2 days ago or just so happen to find one in your inside coat pocket by your keys you thought you lost???....well I have and let me tell you the potency then is even better than before because of the age...so just imagine one that was sittin for 2,700 years....lol....

Giant IDIOT!!
Well at least that's what the NY Post said...lol....
EAST RUTHERFORD, New Jersey (Ticker)—Plaxico Burress reported to Giants Stadium to learn his season is over.
The New York Giants placed Burress on the reserve/non-football injury list Tuesday, officially ending his season.
The anticipated move came one day after Burress was charged with two counts of criminal possession of a weapon after suffering a self-inflicted gunshot wound at a Manhattan nightclub the previous weekend.
The Giants fined Burress and suspended him for four games for conduct detrimental to the team for multiple and repeated violations of club rules.
Should the defending Super Bowl champions make the playoffs, which is a mere formality given their 11-1 record, Burress will not be allowed to return to the Giants’ active list.
“As we have said since Saturday morning, our concern is for Plaxico’s health and well-being,” Giants president John Mara said. “This is an important time for him to take care of his body and heal up and also deal with the very serious legal consequences and other issues in his life.
“When I spoke with Plaxico, he expressed great remorse for letting down his teammates.”
It marked the second suspension this season for Burress, who likely has played his final game in a Giants uniform.
One of the heroes of New York’s surprising victory in Super Bowl XLII, Burress posted $100,000 bail Monday after being charged with second-degree criminal possession of a weapon - a Glock semiautomatic pistol - and third-degree possession for carrying the ammunition clip.
Both are Class C felonies, for which Burress could be sentenced to a mandatory minimum of 3 1/2 years in jail if convicted.
Per league rules, Burress was required to report to work Tuesday to receive mandatory treatment on both the gunshot wound and the strained right hamstring that initially sidelined him for this past Sunday’s game against the Washington Redskins.
The veteran wide receiver, who caught the winning pass in Super Bowl XLII, met with Mara, general manager Jerry Reese and head coach Tom Coughlin to learn of his fate.
After undergoing treatment on his leg, Burress was sent to Dr. Scott Rodeo for an MRI exam on his injured leg. He returned to Giants Stadium shortly after 3 p.m. and was informed by Reese that he was being placed on the reserve/non-football injury list.
“The decision we made today regarding Plaxico’s roster status was based on the examination of Plaxico by our team physician,” Reese said. “Dr. Rodeo believes Plaxico would be out at least four to six weeks with the gunshot wound.
“I had two conversations with Plaxico today, and it was obvious that he understood the magnitude of this situation. He knows that we are here to support him and help him get healthy.”
Coughlin said no one player can replace Burress in the starting lineup.
“When you lose a player of Plaxico’s ability, it is incumbent that everybody step up and fill the void,” Giants coach Tom Coughlin said. “In the last two seasons, this team has done an outstanding job of that. We made it clear to Plax today that we are here to support him in any way possible.”
Burress turned himself in to detectives at New York City’s 17th Precinct in midtown Manhattan on Monday, where he was charged with criminal possession of a weapon following a shooting incident late Friday night at the Latin Quarter nightclub.
According to police reports, Burress shot himself in the thigh and was hospitalized overnight before he was released at about 2 p.m. Saturday.
A police spokesman said the investigation is continuing.
Burress and teammate Antonio Pierce were at the Latin Quarter when the shooting occurred. Pierce, appearing on New York radio station WFAN late Monday afternoon, pleaded with the public to “don’t believe everything you hear.”
A first-round pick of the Pittsburgh in 2000, Burress spent his first five seasons with the Steelers before joining the Giants in 2005.
Burress had a pair of 1,000-yard seasons with New York, and hauled in a career-high 12 touchdown passes in 2007 despite not practicing for virtually the entire season due to a gimpy ankle.
In the Giants’ stunning 17-14 victory over then-unbeaten New England in the Super Bowl, Burress caught a 13-yard scoring pass from Eli Manning with 35 seconds to play to provide the winning margin.
But matters have spiraled downward this season for Burress, who finished with 41 receptions for 454 yards and four touchdowns this year.
Burress, who signed a five-year, $35 million contract extension prior to the season, missed the Giants’ October 5 game against the Seattle Seahawks after being suspended for missing a team meeting.
He also was involved in a sideline confrontation with Coughlin during a game and has been fined multiple times for a total of approximately $200,000.
If this ain't the dumbest shit I done heard...I don't know what is...do ya'll know what his excuse was at first??...he said he was cleaning the gun.....in the club boy???...we must look like we got BOO BOO DA FOOL printed on the foreheads...his career as a Giant is prolly officialy over...he was one of my favorite wide outs too...fast as hell....but you know how strict New York is with their gun laws...they don't play....isn't Lil Wayne still on trial for the burner he got caught with??...and you see what they did to Remy....and she shot somebody for stealing her shit...New York gun laws are crazy...

FIRST GRADER ACCUSED OF USING KNIFE TO ROB BOY IN SCHOOL BATHROOM
The Miami Herald says a first-grader was suspended after he allegedly robbed a 6-year-old classmate at knife-point last week in the boy's bathroom of a Pines Lakes, Fla., elementary school.
The alleged victim, who lost $1, wasn't injured, according to the paper.
Local police are on the case. ''We're still investigating to make a final determination on what exactly happened,'' Pembroke Pines police Deputy Chief Dave Golt tells the Herald. "When you're talking to children of that age, there are always inconsistencies in the story."
WFOR-TV says the suspect was suspended for 10 days and faces expulsion.
Update at 10:18 a.m. ET: The Sun-Sentinel quotes a police spokesman who described the incident as an "armed robbery."
This is some crazy shit....it's sad but it's crazy....so this kid walks into the bathroom and then pulls out a knife and tells the boy it's a stickup?...as if they weren't gonna see his dumb ass in school no more...he needs his ass whipped and so do his parents...im sure he has shown some kind of behavior that may have shown that he is capable of doing something like this....there is no way a kid of mine will ever be doin some shit like this...they will show my picture on Fox news at 9 "A Father is being taken into custody because he actually put his foot in his kids ass...that's right folks he actually went for the field goal"...lol....

Obama's Sentences Stir Controversy
Obama's Use of Complete Sentences Stirs Controversy
In the first two weeks since the election, President-elect Barack Obama has broken with a tradition established over the past eight years through his controversial use of complete sentences, political observers say.
Millions of Americans who watched Mr. Obama's appearance on CBS's 60 Minutes on Sunday witnessed the president-elect's unorthodox verbal tic, which had Mr. Obama employing grammatically correct sentences virtually every time he opened his mouth.
But Mr. Obama's decision to use complete sentences in his public pronouncements carries with it certain risks, since after the last eight years many Americans may find his odd speaking style jarring.
According to presidential historian Davis Logsdon of the University of Minnesota, some Americans might find it "alienating" to have a president who speaks English as if it were his first language.
"Every time Obama opens his mouth, his subjects and verbs are in agreement," says Mr. Logsdon. "If he keeps it up, he is running the risk of sounding like an elitist."
The historian said that if Mr. Obama insists on using complete sentences in his speeches, the public may find itself saying, "Okay, subject, predicate, subject predicate -- we get it, stop showing off."
The president-elect's stubborn insistence on using complete sentences has already attracted a rebuke from one of his harshest critics, Gov. Sarah Palin of Alaska.
"Talking with complete sentences there and also too talking in a way that ordinary Americans like Joe the Plumber and Tito the Builder can't really do there, I think needing to do that isn't tapping into what Americans are needing also," she said.
Andy Borowitz is a comedian and writer whose work appears in The New Yorker and The New York Times, and at his award-winning humor site, BorowitzReport.com.
Now this is just obsurd...I guess they want President Obama to fall under their stereotype of what a black man should sound like. They want him to sound ignorant so that they can continue to ridicule and continue their quest to get him out of office even before he steps foot in there....Please someone tell me how using the correct grammar all the time will become a problem....don't we want someone who is well spoken???...maybe im missing something here....

Three found, busted after getting lost in sewer
Cowabunga!
Three blockheaded teenagers were busted playing in a sewer Wednesday in Queens - after getting lost while pretending to be Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, police sources said.
Schiller Milfort, 16, of Hollis, and Marvin Ottley, 17, of Bellaire, along with an unidentified 15-year-old boy, were shirtless and in their shorts and sneakers when firefighters plucked them out of a sewer in Kissena Park.
The make-believe heroes were crawling around the sewer system when they got confused and lost their way, police sources said.
They were not injured, officials said.
"These three idiots were playing Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and wanted to go into the sewers," said one police source. "They were never in danger, just goofing off and being stupid."
Milfort and Ottley were charged with criminal trespassing. The other teenager was released to his parents.
I fuckin love it.....three grown men taking off their fuckin shirts and goin into the fuckin sewer....lol....naw seriously this has to be the funniest story i have ever heard...What the fuck were you doin down there?..Don't they know it's real shit goin on out here?...You stupid son of a bitch!! You know it's fucked up when the law says you were idiots in a national newspaper....You ain't shit!!!

Presidential Debate!!
I GUESS!!!!! If that's what you want to call it....This dude McCain really gets on my nerves...Last night he went on to state that Senator and hopefully my next President, Barack Obama has not made an effort to repudiate some things that have been said in a negative aspect about McCain...Then he goes on to state that every single time someone is out of line with comments in regards to Obama, he immediately corrects them..(imitating Charlie Murphy)...WRONG....WRONG...what about the individual who just yelled "Kill Him" in regards to Obama at a recent rally.....what about his VP selection (who we won't talk bad about cuz she is doin the best she can)who at her own rallies says things like Barack is running around with Terrorist's?....Then this man goes on some more to say how Senator Obama has spent more money on a negative campaign than any other presidential nominee....Has Senator McCain's mind gone completely haywire since he began taking his medication for his early stages of Alzheimer's??...Barack Obama has raised more money than any Presidential Hopeful EVER....that's right....EVER....and FACT: Obama's campaign is 80 percent...80% about the issues at hand and only 20% negativity...and I think the only reason there is negativity is because the negativity from the other party has weighed so heavily on this campaign...hence the reason why Barack felt as though he had to explain himself last night when it comes to William Ayers, etc.....This shouldn't have been discussed at the Presidential Debate when the stock market is steady falling and people are losing their homes on a daily basis....no one is safe anymore....hell even the NBA said today that they are cutting jobs....Wake up people....Wake up!!!

Walmart Busts Three Men for Fraud After Accidentally Selling Them Empty Computer Boxes
Tuesday, October 14, 2008
CHANDLER, Ariz. — Three men from Mexico have been arrested in what authorities are calling a stolen credit card scam.
Adolfo Paz Gracia, 35, Javier Carreno Cruz, 29, and Jose Diaz Valenzuela, 29, were booked into Fourth Avenue Jail in Phoenix on three counts of forgery and one count of fraud schemes each.
Chandler police responded Sunday to a Wal-Mart store when employees reported three men bought a laptop computer and returned with an empty box, claiming a laptop was never in it.
Thinking the men were attempting to defraud the store, store employees called police.
When police arrived, one of the men ran away. During the chase, he threw credit cards to the ground. Police recovered the cards and determined they were forgeries.
Authorities say further investigation showed the three had 19 forged credit cards, which they allegedly had used to buy electronic items from other Wal-Mart stores in the Phoenix metropolitan area.
The counterfeit credit cards were encoded with valid stolen credit card numbers and police say an investigation is ongoing to identify the account holders.
Store employees later discovered they had indeed sold an empty box to the three men.

Bears LOST Again!!! 20 - 22
I was watching this game and then I fell asleep cuz I was bored with it personally. For some odd reason the CBS wasn't working so I couldn't catch the other game. At first everything was fine. I had a plate of hot food in front of me and something to roll up. The food was devoured and my plants were calmly up in smoke under the Cheech and Chong act....lol....By the time I fell asleep we were down 9 to 3. What a way to wake up though, a text message that put a smile on my face saying "You miss me?" and then just as my smile reaches full potential, I see this bastard Jason Elam kicking the field goal that had everyone's heart drop faster than the stock on Wall Street. That's some bull!!!!!!!!Urlacher betta pick it up soon!!!
ACG BOOTS
I don't know about ya'll but Winter is approaching fast and last year these were it. I agree they are the shit and I need a fresh pair for November. The ACG Boots are like a must right now. Remember how the Buffalino's were in '97, and then the Lugz boots from '98 with the white and black shoe strings.......wow that was the shit....lol....what ya'll think...
