  • 1970: Jim Morrison's film HWY: An American Pastoral is publicly shown for the first and only time




Quote:

On March 27, 1970, the Jim Morrison Film Festival took place at the Queen Elizabeth Theatre in Vancouver, British Columbia. The festival was presented by Poppin Magazine and included the only known public showing of Morrison’s film HWY: An American Pastoral.

HWY: An American Pastoral is a short film by Jim Morrison, Frank Lisciandro, Paul Ferrara, and Babe Hill and stars Morrison as a hitchhiker. It is a 50-minute experimental film in Direct Cinema style. It was shot during the spring and summer of 1969 in the Mojave Desert and in Los Angeles.

In the informal 1971 interview Morrison gave to Ben Fong Torres, Morrison states the film "was more of an exercise for me and a warm-up for something bigger."

In 2009, restored and re-mastered excerpts from HWY were featured in Tom DiCillo's documentary When You're Strange. However, the complete film was not included in the Special Features on the When You're Strange DVD, and there have been no further announcements regarding a DVD release for the film. Bootleg copies of the film (with a visible timecode at the bottom of the screen) can be found on the internet.

  • 1984:  Ross Ulbricht of Silk Road is born




Quote:

Ross William Ulbricht (born 27 March 1984) created a darknet market named Silk Road and ran it until his 2013 arrest, under the pseudonym Dread Pirate Roberts.

Ulbricht was convicted of money laundering, computer hacking and conspiracy to traffic narcotics in February 2015. He is serving a life sentence without the possibility of parole.

Silk Road, arrest and trial


As early as 2009 Ulbricht had been contemplating the idea of building an online black market that would use Tor and bitcoin to evade law enforcement. Tor is a protocol which encrypts data sent online through intermediary servers before reaching a final destination; by hosting his market as a Tor site, Ulbricht could conceal its IP address. Bitcoin is an online virtual currency; while all bitcoin transactions are recorded on a log, the blockchain, if users can avoid linking their identities to their online "wallets" they can conduct transactions with considerable anonymity.

Ulbricht began work on developing his online black market in 2010 as a side project to Good Wagon Books. He also sporadically kept a diary during the operating history of Silk Road; in his first entry he outlined his situation prior to launch, and predicted he would make 2011 "a year of prosperity" through his ventures. Ulbricht may also have included a reference to Silk Road on his LinkedIn page, where he discussed his wish to "use economic theory as a means to abolish the use of coercion and aggression amongst mankind" and claimed "I am creating an economic simulation to give people a first-hand experience of what it would be like to live in a world without the systemic use of force."To author Nathaniel Popper, the creation of Silk Road was an act of "sheer desperation" after Ulbricht exhausted most of the nest egg he had out of college on his failed businesses. Ulbricht moved to San Francisco prior to his arrest.

Ulbricht was first connected to "Dread Pirate Roberts" by Gary Alford, an IRS investigator working with the DEA on the Silk Road case, in mid-2013. In October 2013, Ulbricht was arrested and accused by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) of being the "mastermind" behind the site. Ulbricht was arrested on the 1st of October 2013 at 3:15 Pacific time in Glen Park library, a branch of the San Francisco Public Library. Agent Chris Tarbell presented Ulbricht the warrant for his arrest.

Ulbricht was charged with money laundering, computer hacking, conspiracy to traffic narcotics, and procuring murder. The charge of procuring murder was removed from the indictment although the evidence was factored into Ulbricht's sentence. Ulbricht was convicted of all the remaining charges after a jury trial that concluded in February 2015. He was sentenced to life imprisonment without the possibility of parole on 29 May 2015. His lawyers submitted an appeal on 12 January 2016, centering around claims that the prosecution illegally withheld evidence of DEA agents' malfeasance in the investigation of Silk Road, for which they were convicted.

The prosecutor believed that none of the six contracted murders-for-hire occurred despite Ulbricht having paid $730,000 to have them done. A charge of procuring murder is to be dealt with in a separate pending trial in Maryland.

In my e-mail calendar.  It's easy.  I don't need a weatherman or a good memory or a book or anything.

I’ve honestly never seen the dude’s face before. He just looks so normal. I always had this picture in my mind of some late 40’s, semi-fat and balding dude with thick glasses and shit. I really should have looked that up. :lol:

No, Ross is only 35 years old today.  It boggles the mind to know that he has another 50 to 60 years left of his life and all of those years will be spent in prison.  This is all because he made a website where people could trade illegal drugs, because of his belief in personal freedom.  Ironic that unless he gets a presidential pardon somewhere down the line, he will never have personal freedom for himself again. 

Happy Birthday Ross.  Thank you for sacrificing your life for freedom.

:heartpump:
