I wonder if pimps used this Cadillac at anytime of their pimping career in the 60s, im sure they can fit plenty of "hoe's" in this ride. Now when I saw this parked right outside my work I thought to myself who would possibly drive this huge boat around LA with so much traffic. Its a classical car that should be only for show and it looked a little beat up. It looked like it could be somewhere between a limousine and a yatch! Oh and check out the plates !

For a while it was looking like Allergic TO Aid had no future left! A couple of our members decided to take some personal time off and others are taking vacations. Although I really never went anywhere I myself am guilty for not writing and updating you all. Hopefully this will be the last time it ever happens!

Stats class in the summer for 8 weeks, 2 days a week 3 hours each day is "not bueno" as JFK would say. But I do my thing and grind it out like a pair of old brakes as Sa'wel once said lol.

Like Russs in his last post hahaha.. reminds me of how Cleveland is doing Lebron, now that he has chosen to leave and sign with the Miami Heat. Talk about having no appreciation lol. Especially for the man who single handly kept your boring ass city relevant to the outside world, for the last 7 years. But oh well, I can care less..the only thing that's looking like a definite is their basketball organization is doomed. So i guess the fans and front office have to take their agression out on somehow right?

instead he wastes his talent on meaningless crap like...

Bernard Pollard, while he was still on my lackluster Chiefs, is the sports equivalent of Sa'wel people...but at least he's getting paid and he's known for doing this...

Injuring Tom Brady... Way bigger than "beating your meat like rocky"

Legalization could slash the price of pot 80%

Cost could drop to $38 per ounce if Proposition 19 passes, Rand Corp. researchers say. The tax implications and probable rise in consumption are impossible to predict, study finds.

California's cash crop could become dirt cheap if the state legalizes marijuana.

Researchers associated with the Rand Corp.'s Drug Policy Research Center said Wednesday that not much is certain about the potential impact of Proposition 19 except that the price of California's choicest weed could plunge more than 80%, down from $300 to $450 per ounce to about $38.

"That's a significant drop," said Beau Kilmer, co-director of the center. "We're very clear about the fact that the price will go down."

The implications of such a drop would be profound. Kilmer and four other researchers who analyzed marijuana legalization said consumption would rise, but they could not determine with any certainty by how much. "We cannot rule out increases of 50% to 100% or perhaps higher, but we just don't know," he said.

Such a low price could also affect pot prices across the nation, encourage marijuana tourism in the state, increase the amount of pot shipped out of state, disrupt the smuggling of marijuana from Mexico and stimulate an underground market designed to avoid high taxes that might be imposed.

Rand, the Santa Monica-based nonpartisan research institute, had five prominent drug policy experts spend about six months examining what might happen to marijuana use and tax revenues if Californians approve the measure on the November ballot or the Legislature passes a bill introduced by Assemblyman Tom Ammiano (D- San Francisco) that would legalize pot and impose a $50-per-ounce tax.

The report called "Altered State?" is the most scholarly examination of the issue so far. It is likely to be scrutinized and cited by both sides in the debate.

"The uncertainty and the potential chaotic nature of what could happen here just totally derails this initiative," said Roger Salazar, the spokesman for Public Safety First, one of four opposition committees that plan to fight the initiative. "Outside of the prices going down there is nothing else that is certain here and certainly not worth having the state of California become the first entity in the world to completely legalize production and sales of marijuana."

Stephen Gutwillig, the California director of the Drug Policy Alliance, said: "The current system is loaded with the certainty of mass arrest, racist enforcement and boondoggle law enforcement expenses to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars," he said.

The report noted that it was impossible to predict tax revenues from the initiative, which leaves that decision to cities and counties, but concluded that revenues from a statewide $50-per-ounce tax could range from $650 million to $1.49 billion.

To calculate the price drop, researchers looked at the cost of growing marijuana in a 1,500-square-foot house. The researchers concluded that the wages paid to employees who tend the crop would slip from as much as $25 per hour to no more than $10, just a little above what nursery laborers earn.

The report is likely to make it even harder for legalization advocates to persuade the state's growers and suppliers, particularly in the Emerald Triangle, to support the initiative. The triangle area includes Humboldt, Mendocino and Trinity counties.

Dale Gieringer, director of the state chapter of the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws, who has also looked at the issue, said the calculated price drop sounded reasonable, but he said it would not occur overnight. "It will descend slowly, is the likely scenario," he said. "If you took it out of the statute book and dealt with it like parsley, yes, it would plummet."

He acknowledged that consumption would probably increase if Proposition 19 passes, but said it is half the level it was in the late 1970s. "Fads come and go, drugs come in and out of fashion," he said. "I think we're in for a short-term increase in marijuana consumption regardless of whether the initiative passes."

Researchers also looked at estimates of the cost of enforcing marijuana laws in California, which range from $200 million to $1.9 billion, and put it at "probably less than $300 million." They also concluded that it is not possible to determine whether increased use would lead to more drugged driving accidents and to more use of harder drugs, such as cocaine, finding that the research is inconclusive.

38 dollars for an ounce, omfg people please vote smart this time around. So for once and for all we can help our state budget out and boost Cali's economy up! Plus it doesn't hurt that weed prices will be dirt cheap also hahaha.

With so much hype and media coverage over what team Lebron James will be playing for, one can only ask is it really that serious? I'm completely stunned by how much gossip and rumors one player alone has created. Why is it a single athelete commands so much interest from not only the basketball world, but media outlets everywhere? It seems to me everyone is looking to get in on the Lebron frenzy. Whatever the reason may be, one thing is fact.. LBJ is one hell of a player. Yet is he a player deserving of all this recognition? IMO no..atleast first win a ring before people are ready to sell their newborns, in return for being the 1st to break the story on what team your going to hahahaha. This just goes to show you how serious PRO SPORTS has gotten in 2010. Your own hour long special “The Decision,” live Thursday, July 8, at 9 pm ET on ESPN? Really Lebron, just to fucking announce what team you plan on playing for..smh gtfo here! I find this shit incredibly humerous and sad to a certain degree. But i'm sure Lebron and his loyal fans, who can't seem to seperate themsevles from his nuts, are eating this shit up.On another note, the Chris Bosh and Dwayne Wade duo that Miami will have is going to be something to see. Damn I can't wait till the season starts!

Before I get into the post, let me start off by saying where the fuck are u knahs and russs?! Never before have I been presented with such lazy ass staff members. GET ON YOUR JOBS HOES! With that being said ....NBA 2k11 IS FUCKING BACK!!!!! The best basketball video game ever returns for it's 11th appearance. What better way of making a return than having the G.O.A.T on the cover? Damn I can't wait till this shit drops, unfortunately i'll have to do so for a couple more months :(

here's a lil background info on the cover...

We’ve known for over a month now that Michael Jordan was going to be on the cover of NBA 2K11, but we haven’t seen what that cover was going to look like. Now we have. This morning, 2K Sports revealed the official cover art for the game, featuring a highly-stylized, three-panel, iconic image of Jordan. Check it out in greater detail below. “We knew as soon as we signed Jordan that we needed to do something special for the cover,” says Jason Argent, vice president of marketing for 2K Sports. “This could possibly be the most highly anticipated cover art in the history of sports games and we think the image we came up with delivers on every front. I think fans will be pleasantly surprised at how Jordan is actually used in game, as NBA 2K11 will pay homage to ‘His Airness’ in many ways, but the cover art represented our first chance to stop and honor him along the way.” “It’s exciting to see it all come together,” says Jordan. “I am looking forward to seeing the final product, but my kids might have to give me some lessons.” NBA 2K11 will be available October 5, 2010.

Damn it just goes to show you, that the most easiest shots don't always go down. Just ask Nigerian striker Yakubu, who costed his team the win by not executing on the easy goal. Therefore they didn't advance and lucked out on the 30,000 bonus each team member would've gotten if they had done so. Oh well shit happens, I wish yall the best of luck when you all are back at it again in 4 years Nigeria. I just know Yakubu will be kicking his own ass about that goal for a long time to come lol.

Mr.Zone 6, Gucci's latest new work since being released from jail(hopefully for the last time lol) Enjoy!

Now that i've had some time to cope with the Celtics lost i'm back for another post lol. There are a number of reasons as to why we lost game 7, but in the end it all comes down to two things: REBOUNDING, and us allowing the Lakers to get back in the game despite having a double digit lead late in the 3rd. I know some of you Laker fans hate me, to those of you who do, let it be known the feeling is mutual hahahaha. Yet what i will say for now is, congrats on the Victory and repeating; the one postitive thing I take out of the Lakers winning is Mr. artest getting his 1st ring!!! Congrats Ron, you deserve it man!!(the staff here at ATA fucks with you tough! no homo and we'll be seeing u in COMPTON). On another note.. just know when we see eachother next time, which i'm confident will be very soon, the OUTCOME will be different. As for now all u Laker fans enjoy this win and talk your shit while it's still relevant. Big ups to the Celtics as well for being great competitors..hope to see the big 3 and everyone else back next season(DOC & SHEED COME BACK!!! haha). With that being said here's the Lakers interview on Jimmy Kimmel, funny ass shit!!! enjoy

sa'wel

Price for the melee in auburn...Season suspension.
Price for wearing the number 37 in memory of Micheal Jacksons #1 singles... Everyone thinks your crazy.
Price for the best post game interview,in the history of post game interviews... ATA post and a huge impending fine from Mr.Stern


Leave it to Ron to plug in his psychiatrist, who is obviously gonna be ballin after this, and his single, which no matter how garbage it is, is still gonna be a laker anthem for a while.
By the way, I know Ron-Ron is a Henny drinker, but... this is still for Artest.

So im glad to say that the Los Angeles Lakers are once again the champions, BACK To BACK! This Monday , June 21, starting at STAPLES Center and traveling south on Figueroa Street to Jefferson Boulevard, just north of the USC campus and Galen Center. Thats 2 years straight of Championship parades that the city is paying for when it really doesn't have much money to begin with. But oh well its our Lakers so we'll do whatever so lets party

FUCK BOSTON now they can rest in their Coffin. RIP to the competition

-Knahs

I hope all of you will be glued to your television screens watching the Celtics go to work on the Lakers!..1 more win and we're NBA CHAMPIONS once again..Everyone has doubted this team, saying they were to old, rusty, etc..But I like other die hard Celtics fans knew very much what we we're capable of doing..and man are we fucking showing it. It's do or die for the Lakers ..so let's see what happens..and oh yeah incase you've all forgotten..ain't shit change it's still ALL DAY!!!

I know you've all been spotting some Drake related posts on this blog, courteousy of Knahs and Russs. One thing i must state is that I in no way shape or form support dude. He has completely failed me from a fans perspective, coming from "so far gone"(one of his 1st mixtapes) to this utter piece of garbage debut album he calls "thank me later". What should we thank you for Drake? Going completely pop and mainstream? Singing on damn near every track? Making an album that consists of about 80% love songs? A better album title would've been "Hate me Later" hence the title of this post, because that's exactly what people who liked your music when u 1st started getting buzz will do after listening to this haha. I guess he figured, i'm with Wayne's camp now so it's all about album sales. So he took the route that put him in the best possible position to have alot of radio friendly tracks, and love songs geared towards female fans(who make up most of the population when it comes to purchasing music). Whatever the case may be, i'm still pretty confident if he just stuck to his original recipe for success the album would've still performed up to expectations. What a complete disappointment smh..should have i expected this coming from a guy like this?

these are the only two faces that could be given when listening to music such as this, which such high expectations from a hip hop fan's point of view

AS we come closer and closer to roc nations first artist release date, you can hear his sound change a lot... instead of witty punch lines, "only fuck with sistah's like incest." Cole went completely commercial, with generic "love lines"... but still a catchy song.



...And of course, only WE would score by luck rather than skill... and the reason why soccer will truly never be big in the US is evident in the final score... to get a draw with the Brit's and considering it a win is a Fail, just like...

Gotta give props to Deuce for being so ambitious...

LMFAO BIG BABY DAVIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you didn't hear ATA decided to add another member to the group to change up the pitch. His name is Cheebo and hes a very funny and talented guy. I got a chance to run into him at an outing that was held not to long ago, he had already drank a lot of alcohol by this point so the interview was a straight shooter no re-take.



-Knahs

This was a footage I took not to long ago a mini exclusive interview/intro that was cut off. But it was DJ YOSHE who was about to take the spot light to go up and spin along side his partner in crime Asaad!

hahaha I have to admit even though I absolutely hate him as a player, Kobe has some dope ass commercials. Like this latest one from Vitamin Water, lol notice how he left the topic of Boston up for discussion. He knows better than talking way to early hahaha..

New iPhone 4 announced today... And it really is amazing. Just watch this video
Holy SHIT


To save you some trouble, it basically has iChat on a phone, with a front facing camera, and and HD Video cam... Sometimes I think Steve Jobs and Apple, like to literally kill the competition, "(Bill)Gates I'm Raw, so you hearing Microsoft gon out cook me... is suspect as R. Kelly with girl scout cookies." Loso style...

Rondo get's fouled and goes to the line. Of course Nate has to show him some love as a timeout is called and Rajon heads back to the Boston bench.

John Wooden won 10 NCAA titles at UCLA. No other college coach had half of that.
Over 27 years, he won 620 games, including 88 straight during one historic stretch, and coached many of the game's greatest players such as Bill Walton and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar
RIP Wooden

Lmfao looks like the president himself, had a quick cameo in the "Whoomp! There It Is" music video. Don't know for sure if it's him, but you have to admit that looks dead on like Obama.
