After the French and Indian War (1763), the King of England disallowed an act made by the Colony of Virginia's assembly. In a lawsuit, a young lawyer by the name of Patrick Henry declared that the king was a tyrant and that by the act of disallowance, the king forfeited his right to have the colonists remain obedient to him. If the beginning steps that led to the formation of our nation started from such actions, which by comparison to our situation today, was much less grievous, how much more justified would citizens be in taking similar actions in our present situation? Patrick Henry's statement called for disallowing the legitimacy of the king to govern over them. What legitimacy, therefore, should we consider our government today to have that allows the formation of laws, which disallows natural law? Laws that take from citizens their private property, permit abortion and accept unnatural lifestyles. Laws against natural law are laws without legitimacy. We must ask the question, has the present system of electing and governing betrayed the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution? If it has, then are we not being led to the same conclusion as Patrick Henry????????????that the ruling government over us has made itself illegitimate? Has the present form of government hi-jacked our legitimate Declaration and Constitutional, Republic form of government? If we answer yes, then how will we respond? Will we follow the witness of our Forefathers who recognized that the king had forfeited the right to govern and therefore, forfeited the right to have the people remain obedient to him? Has the present form of government, which is acting against our republic and the will of the peopleit is suppose to represent, forfeited the right to govern? At what point do the words declared in the Declaration, "It is their right, it is their duty to throw off such government and provide new guards for their future security" play in against the present form of government? The present form of governing is not fulfilling the dreams our Forefathers had. We are called to fulfill those dreams. The time is ripe. The time is now.
15-year-old Ben and his two best friends wake up from hibernation to discover the horrific truth about their peaceful town. Winter is just a few days away. Everyone in town is getting ready to lie down in their hibernation pods and sleep till spring. Ben and his two best friends, Ellen and Chess, are about to escape this established tradition. They have scored SilverBlue mushrooms. Ben is looking at his share, pushing them around in the palm of his hand. They're tiny with a strange blue cap and a translucid stalk. And if you eat them, you're supposed to wake up from Hi-be and go for a white winter. Ellen has convinced the boys that it would be awesome to stay awake for an entire season of freedom with zero parental supervision and the whole town for themselves. Ben is secretly in love with her. He swallows the mushrooms to impress her and returns to his family to get ready for the long sleep. After nearly suffocating on his ventilator during his awakening, Ben realizes that nothing is the way he wanted it to be. Their town has become a scary and silent place. Food is scarce. Ellen is actually in love with Chess. And most importantly, their neighborhood is overrun by hordes of primitive wordless outsiders ransacking houses, killing and eating their sleeping occupants. If they want to survive, Ben and his friends will have to uncover all the secrets buried right under their feet and stop whoever was really controlling their town from killing its people, even if it means making an unlikely alliance with one of those man-eating outsiders.

An up-close portrayal of late-'90s London's many music scenes, from the pages of Sleazenation and beyond In the late 1990s, as a graduate from art school, the British photographer Ewen Spencer began making pictures for Sleazenation, in particular for the infamous listing pages at the rear of the magazine that were called Savoir Vivre. The images were made in both black and white and color, and were immensely candid and full of characters that seemed to be everywhere at that time. London was at the epicenter of a cultural boom in this period. Small clubs, parties and discos were plentiful in venues from North to South, and Spencer was in a minicab and night bus taking in all the scenes--from Northern Soul, Acid House, Jungle and Garage to Nu Metal, South London blackout clubs and more. Spencer captures an era filled with love, lust and messy authenticity. Ewen Spencer (born 1971) graduated from the University of Brighton in 1997 and began shooting for style magazines such as Sleazenation and The Face, with an emphasis on youth culture. In 2004 his series Teenagers was shortlisted for the Project Assistance award at Rencontres D'Arles, curated that year by Martin Parr, who tipped Spencer as "one to watch." In 2013 he began self-publishing a biannual photo-zine, Guapamente focusing on global youth subcultures. Spencer has also made documentaries on Britain's Garage and Grime scenes. His monograph Young Love was published by Stanley Barker in 2017.
