| 4.2m cameras watch us... so is Big Brother already here?
I dont have a real problem with Cameras being used in City Centers to monitor crime. I dont have a problem with cameras monitoring traffic to help solve traffic congestion. I do have a problem with even one camera being used to monitor people going about their day to day business.

Exhibit explores influence of Detroit comics
Comic books are not always a laughing matter or about mutants with out-of-this-world powers. They can also reflect the pulse of a culture, take a stab at the political climate, educate and tantalize. The Creative Arts Center in Pontiac explores the world of comics with its exhibit "The American Comic Book: A Detroit Perspective," through Feb. 16. The exhibit includes comic books and paintings by local illustrators Suzanne Baumann, Sean Bieri, Gary Grimshaw, Matt Busch and Matt Feazell. And as an extra perk, visitors will receive a free comic book. In addition to colorful, eye-popping images, the exhibit details the history of comics/cartoons, which, according to Carol Paster, executive director of the Creative Arts Center, is as old as America itself. .
