“I’m not worried about chasing people away,” he said. “How many more people can we chase away by writing? Nobody reads. It’s not like I’m dropping an album, I’m like an M.C. and I’m like ‘Yo, I need all the beats to be polka beats.’ Okay, I might lose people, and there’s money involved. But there ain’t no money in this fucking game. If you get 2,000 readers, you’re good. You’re good. So you might as well do what your dream tells you to do and be happy that the people at the other end of the page are happy to see you.”

Graffiti artist Tilt has created Panic Room inside the Au Vieux Panier hotel in Marseille, France. One half of the room is covered in Tilt’s graffiti (including the bed), while the other is crispy clean white. This is one of the 5 rooms where the hotel invites artists from around the world to re-design and re-imagine.

Exercise and Ventilation
- Ventilation increases during strenuous exercise, with depth increasing more than rate.
- PCO2 and PO2 do not play an important role during exercise.
A perfect world
