Obviously you need to focus on one specific goal. If it pays, you can have a surplus that will allow you to achieve your other goals.

Take some basic accounting classes.

Does Vancouver need a designated public square?

It's noon on a soggy Sunday at Occupy Vancouver, a small village spread across dozens of tents. Several larger structures house amenities—an eatery, a library, a first aid station—meant to reinforce the occupiers' posture of permanence. Most sit on the north plaza of the Vancouver Art Gallery, the city's de facto public square. Some recent arrivals snake south along Howe and Hornby streets, flanking the building with wooden pallets and tents and tarps.

"Mic check!" yells a man.

"Mic check!" repeats the audience via human microphone.

"There are 175 tents!", yells the speaker.

The human mic first echoes the words, then supports them with loud whooos and wheees.

A sleepy camper walks by with a foamy toothbrush in his mouth. Another carries a steaming mug of coffee and a halved avocado. Volunteers at a so-called "infrastructure tent" hand out dry clothes and blankets next to a work yard with a muddy wheelbarrow, stacks of long two-by-fours and a pungent fresh-cut wood smell. A lone drummer beats a djembe next to the large fountain (now drained) and small groups of people lunching and conversing. When an official with Vancouver Fire & Rescue Services strolls by, a granola camper type with a headset springs to mock attention and offers an exaggerated hand salute, which the man returns with a confused half-smile.

Chicago Alderman Says Cash ... - Cannabis Culture Magazine

Some officials in cash-strapped Chicago believe they've found a way to bring in millions of desperately needed dollars while freeing up police: marijuana.

Alderman Danny Solis plans to introduce an ordinance Wednesday that would make possession of small amounts of marijuana a ticketable offense with a $200 fine rather than a misdemeanor. He estimates the change would generate $7 million a year and, since the vast majority of such cases are dismissed, would save police and courthouse workers money and thousands of hours of time.

Similar laws exist around the country, but unlike in other states and cities where debate has often focused on marijuana use, the discussions in Chicago are centered almost entirely on money and wasted resources.

"In these trying times of the economy, we could really use the revenue generated by fines versus Arrests," Solis said. "And each (arrest) means police officers are spending an inordinate amount of time outside the neighborhoods, inside the district offices doing paperwork."
