American band 30 Seconds To Mars, besides going to China and The Arctic Circle to shoot two music videos, being enrolled in a legal battle with their discography (EMI), and having fans from all over the world landing on Los Angeles for The Summit -along with other cities worldwide- to make sounds and vocals as well as fans recording such sounds and such vocals at their very homes in the last three years, they are in the final process of what will be presumably called ‘This is War.

The third album of the Leto’s and Milicevic are due to be released on October 20th, without any further confirmation from them than a teaser found in their twitter account.

30 Seconds To Mars have experienced a whole journey in their way through the music. Since their first record, Self-titled, launched in 2002, they have seen how their popularity and their fanbase grows with a military arrangement of troops; that is, the Echelon, street teamers and loyal supporters who promote the band inside and outside – online and offline.

Their second record, ‘A Beautiful Lie‘, was another great story, a total success they didn’t foresee but always believed in, having all the singles (The Kill, From Yesterday, A Beautiful Lie) at the top positions and getting with that a big and shinny Trophy Room.

Now, four years later of the first steps of such success, they’re back, and they’re not alone. This new record will have words from Kanye West, Brandon Flowers (The Killers), Tibetan Monks and, of course, their fans – all in the same CD.
And just in case we don’t have enough of the space, a camera has been behind to abstract a piece of the life on Mars, with more Mars and more fans, for the THISISWAR documentary, in which anyone can still be a part of.

Announcements for single and tour are coming soon.

Carlos Santana has urged president Obama to legalize marijuana in order to improve and clean the economy. At least, that’s what he thinks it’ll work for.

The 61-year-old guitar legend believes that by making the drug legal, it could transform the flagging American economy.

He specified money should be addressed to education, and used this subject to take a swipe at California Governor, Arnold Schwarzenegger:

“Legalize marijuana and take all that money and invest it in teachers and in education. You will see a transformation in America.”

“I really believe that as soon as we legalize and decriminalize marijuana we can actually afford a really good governor who won’t keep taking money away from education and from teachers and send him back to Hollywood where he can do ‘D’ movies and we can get an ‘A’ governor.”

“The pessimist people will have a harder time dealing the crisis”

Taking advantage of the economic spiralling being a constant subject worldwide, I’m going to portray the unique solution to fight against it by oneself: to be optimist.

Why do I say this? Have I become rich being optimist? Well, not yet, but that’s what Bernabé Tierno, Spanish psychologist, educationalist and a successful author, explains in a recent interview in El Mundo.

He’s a defensor of the positive psychology: “[the crisis] will be taken over by those who don’t allow the complaint and instead make everything that’s on their hands. The affected ones have to work in whatever they can, any thing before staying at home moaning” says the writer.

Tierno talks about how the pessimist people will have a harder time dealing with the crisis “and they are not precisely a minority. They’re those who spend the day blaming everyone. I call them toxic persons. And that doesn’t mean to blame our politicians shouldn’t be done. There’s no excuse for the fact that anybody bounds to accept the mistakes“.

To the question if the society, being the way it is, installed in a well-being state, will be able to survive its bankruptcy, he adds he’s been interviewing nonagenarian people for three years now: “They answer proposing tranquility, that everyone searches for a personalized happiness, it means, with what they already own. (…) It’s been demonstrated that who hasn’t have to go through difficulties is not ready for the life. Another key against the crisis is the humor.
Following this, Bernabé Tierno points out that it’s neccesary to adapt te expectations to the new reality “and even so, there’ll be who will be unable to assume it and will suffer because of it. These are those that live always worried for what people will say“.

Obviously, happiness and humor won’t lead us to the money tree, but it’s a wise thought to not surrender ourselves to the depression of what we don’t have, because, as Bernabé stated in one of his conferences, “the road to the happiness only depends on us”.

In any case, the message breathes armony and a calm reaction to the situation ahead of us.
