Proposition 19

Tomorrow in California, Proposition 19, known as the Regulate, Control and Tax Cannabis Act of 2010 will be on ballot statewide. Wikipedia has all the info:

"It legalizes various marijuana-related activities, allows local governments to regulate these activities, permits local governments to impose and collect marijuana-related fees and taxes, and authorizes various criminal and civil penalties. In March 2010, it qualified to be on the November statewide ballot. It requires a simple majority in order to pass, and would take effect the day after the election. Yes on 19 is the official advocacy group for the initiative, and No On Proposition 19 is the official opposition group."

According to the State of California analysis, the bill will have the following effects.

Legalization of personal marijuana-related activities

Except as permitted under Proposition 215 and SB 420 laws, persons age 21 and older may:

• possess up to 28.5 grams (1oz) of marijuana for personal consumption.
• use marijuana in:
  • a non-public place such as a residence or
  • a public establishment licensed for on site marijuana consumption.
• grow marijuana at a private residence in a space of up to 25 square feet (2.3 m²) for personal use.

Local government regulation of commercial production and sale

Local government may:

• Authorize the retail sale of up to 28.5 grams of marijuana per transaction to persons 21 and older.
• Regulate the location, size, hours of operation, and signs and displays of the establishments authorized to make these sales.
• Authorize larger amounts of marijuana for:
  • personal possession and cultivation, or
  • commercial cultivation, transportation and sale.

Other Permissions

• Allows for the transportation of marijuana from a licensed premises in one city or county to a licensed premises in another city or county, without regard to local laws of intermediate localities to the contrary.
• Allows the collection of taxes to allow local governments to raise revenue or to offset any costs associated with marijuana regulation.

Maintenance and addition of criminal and civil penalties

• Maintains existing laws against selling drugs to a minor and driving under the influence.
• Maintains an employer's right to address consumption of marijuana that affects an employee's job performance.
• Maintains existing laws against interstate or international transportation of marijuana.
• Every person 18 years of age or older who hires, employs, or uses a minor in transporting, carrying, selling, giving away marijuana, or knowingly sells or gives away marijuana to someone under the age of 14, shall be imprisoned in state prison for a period of three, five, or seven years.
• Every person 18 years of age or older who knowingly sells or gives away marijuana to someone older than the age of 14 but younger than 18, shall be imprisoned in the state prison for a period of three, four, or five years.
• Every person 21 years of age or older who knowingly sells or gives away marijuana to someone older than the age of 18 but younger than 21, shall be imprisoned in county jail for up to six months and fined up to $1,000 per offense.
• Any person who is licensed, permitted, or authorized to sell marijuana, who knowingly sells or gives away marijuana to someone under the age of 21 results in them being banned from owning, operating, or being employed by a licensed marijuana establishment for one year.

Due Date

Robert Downey Jr and Zach Galifianakis team up in this upcoming comedy which focuses on two men: a highly strung expectant father (Downey) and an aspiring actor (Galifianakis) on a cross country road trip so the father can arrive in time to see his child's birth.

The movie is directed by Todd Phillips who has done some great previous comedy work, with titles like ROAD TRIP, OLD SCHOOL and THE HANGOVER to name a few.

This should hopefully be a good funny movie for the summer.

Due Date is due for release on November 5th 2010. But thats most likely the US release date.

Can't Tell Me Nothing

Kanye West & Zack Galifianakis = Hilarious music video.

Between Two Ferns

Funny Or Die is a comedy website setup by Comedy Actor Will Ferrell and Adam McKay, which shows various arrays of funny sketches and segments featuring plenty of actors, musicians and comedians. One segment that is absolute gold is "Between Two Ferns with Zach Galifianakis"

You'd recoginse Galifianakis as playing the lovable character Alan from, in my opinion, the best movie of 2009, "THE HANGOVER".

Basically the segment is Galifianakis having his own talk show and insulting and being mean to his guests. Below are some of the best, but only a few have been made (8 to be exact).
