I watched the livestream of #occupydc and police moved in with plastic riot shields, batons and helmets, and according to the ustream reporter police “indescriminately bashed people in the heads with their batons.” The reporter named “officer Kellenberger of the US Park Police” specifically as someone who was using brutal, indescriminate means.” He also said “90% of them are not wearing badges or nametags.” Read More

This goes out to my best friend Robert in Belfast, Northern Ireland. Robert and I have been friends since we were 16 and he moved to the USA when we were 20.

February 2nd, 2012 | Headlines | 1 Comment

Here’s another example of ignorant people throwing stones. Guess what, they are kids. Kids write on walls with crayons when they are 2 years old and you don’t arrest them. Kids put their gum under their tables and you don’t fine them for littering. Kids sometimes repeat curse words and you don’t call the FCC. How does arresting a child, throwing him into juvie for 6 months and fining his poor parents $2000 take graffiti off the streets? Read More

DAVID CHOE TO MAKE $200MIL FROM FACEBOOK

February 2nd, 2012 | Headlines | 2 Comments

Over the last seven years ago, David Choe has been commissioned to paint the different facilities of Facebook Headquarters.  They admire his work so much that when they leave an old office, they simply cut out the pieces from the wall and take them to the new place.

Being the lucky guy that Mr Choe seems to be, he agreed to take Facebook stock instead of cash for his work. Paperwork was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission to begin an initial public offering and it is expected  the social-networking empire with be valued somewhere around $100billion.

Check out photos from his most recent trip to the Facebook headquarters on his blog!
