Blotter Art is a term that refers to the artwork that liquid LSD is dropped onto. The artwork is printed onto "blotter" paper and then perforated into tiny squares or "hits," which can be torn apart into easy to manage quantities. In the 1960s, when LSD was legal, it was distributed in large pills, sometimes called "barrels" because of their shape. It was also sold on anything from sugar cubes to animal crackers. Dealers began to want their "batch" of LSD to be recognizable from the others, so they began to invent ways to trademark their acid. The chemists would make the pills a certain shape or color as to set them apart from others, especially if they were packaging particularly potent dosages. This also served as a form of a validation of authenticity, proving that the dealers were not selling fake LSD. http://www.makeahistory.com/index.php/section-blog/13313-the-lsd-blotter-art-gallery-mind-states-highzzz-documentaryBlotter Art is a term that refers to the artwork that liquid LSD is dropped onto.

There's a lot of evil things on the Internet if you know where to look for them. Phishing websites collect banking credentials; mule recruitment websites entice people into money laundering; fake escrow sites defraud the winners of online auctions; fake banks hold the cash for fake African dictators; and there are even Ponzi scheme websites where (almost) everyone knows that they're a scam. http://www.makeahistory.com/index.php/free-stuff/417-the-evil-side-of-internetThere's a lot of evil things on the Internet if you know where to look for them.... more

... Google and other search engines have to work very hard to create very intelligent robots to scan the web for sites. Until recently, these robots considered each and every page as a separate entity. Now, however, a change is occurring. Google is attempting to group pages together into sites, and then judge all of the pages as a group. The implication of this is apparently sites which are "tightly themed" will be positioned higher in the results pages than those that are not.... http://www.makeahistory.com/index.php/free-stuff/315-are-the-search-engines-censoring-the-internet...

Oscar Janiger, a Beverly Hills psychiatrist who ``turned on'' scores of artists, intellectuals and elite members of Hollywood's entertainment community, including the late Cary Grant, to the psychedelic drug LSD. From 1954 until 1962 -- four years before LSD was declared illegal - - Janiger was one of the first researchers to probe the drug's potential for enhancing intellect and creativity. He incorporated the drug into his therapy and handed it out to an estimated 1,000 volunteers including such luminaries as novelists Anais Nin and Aldous Huxley, actors Cary Grant and Jack Nicholson, and conductor/composer Andre Previn . http://www.makeahistory.com/index.php/section-blog/302-lsd-effects-on-creativity-free-book-based-on-the-groundbreaking-and-controversial-research-on-lsdOscar Janiger, a Beverly Hills psychiatrist who ``turned on'' scores of... more
