The book here that I am reviewing is “Dracula” by Bram Stoker. Abraham “Bram” Stoker was interested in horror stories because when he was younger he was bed-ridden with an unidentifiable illness that made it impossible to walk. His mother would read horror stories to him. This sickness soon left Bram at the age of 8. Bram Stoker soon went off to Trinity College in Dublin Ireland where he studied mathematics, became an athlete and soccer star. He also became President of the Philosophical Society.

There are a few main characters. Jonathan Harker was the main protagonist and the book starts with him. He was a real estate agent going to Transylvania to consult with a client named Count Dracula, for a house in England. While on his way he keeps getting looks from people… looks like they see a dead man walking. When he gets to the castle weird things start happening to him. The deal is gets made and Jonathan returns to England. When Dracula arrives, weird things start happening all around England. I would go on but divulging anymore information would ruin things.

My opinion is that this book is awesome. I love the book. I personally read it ten times. I believe that it is greatly written book. Bram Stoker is a terrific horror writer. I want to read all his works someday.

Rolling Stone "Just Say Now"- September 2, 2010

 I chose a political article out of the Rolling Stone Magazine called "Just Say Now", written by Ari Berman. Editor and publisher of the Rolling Stone magazine is Jann S. Wenner. Being that millions of us Americans live in California we're all going to be affected by Proposition 19, the initiative to legalize marijuana. With the extreme chances of this bill passing, the divide between our politicians and Senators gets deeper than ever. Although our country has the advantage of producing enough profit to solve our debt in just a couple of years, the controversy continues to segregate our government.

With no reason to wait Richard Lee, founder of Oaksterdam University, commissioned a poll on the proposition. After receiving over half of the vote Richard Lee funded the money for the proposition to have a place on the ballot this November. Many issues have arose but the financial, industrial, and medical advancement is too rewarding for the government to refuse manufacturing this product. With many officials supporting the motion there's still no between when it comes to who is and is not supporting medical marijuana.

Not stop debates, polls, and research results keep this article very educational up until the closing paragraphs. Catching immediate interest whether you support the motion or not, there's no chance you'll finish without having a few personal opinions of your own.
