We all know that "Happy Birthday To You" is copyrighted, and that it doesn't show up in movies because it costs money to license. Right?
Well, there's some question about whether the original copyright was valid, whether the holder failed to renew it, and whether it's more narrowly defined than they pretend it is. But it wasn't worth anyone's money to fight the copyright holders, Warner.
Except someone is fighting them:
The creatively named Good Morning to You Productions, a documentary film company planning a film about the song Happy Birthday, has now filed a lawsuit concerning the copyright of Happy Birthday and are seeking to force Warner/Chappell to return the millions of dollars it has collected over the years. That's going to make this an interesting case.

That's awesome Par, it sorta reminds me of one of my favourite music videos. *Warning* It's kinda NSFW, but mostly in a "your co-workers won't respect you ever again if they see you watching it" kind of way.

Maybe homeopathic gunpowder is the answer to the whole US gun control thing? Sure everyone and their dog can carry loaded guns around, but they all have to use homeopathic gunpowder in the bullets!

The Long List of Absurd – Health Canada Approved – Homeopathic Medicines:
The mandate of Health Canada is to approve these products when they are shown to be safe and effective. I don't quibble with 'safe' (what harm can nothing do?) but the bar for 'effective' must be particularly low.4. Carcinosinum – Homeopathic cancer. No particular type specified. NPN 80022612.
14. Ova Tosta – Roasted egg shells. My guess is that these are chicken eggs. NPN 80019832.
16. X-Ray – Sugar pills exposed to x-rays, then serially diluted. DIN-HM 80029649.
21. Gunpowder Pellets – Homeopathic gunpowder. Not for use in guns. NPN 80017147.
22. Oxygenium – Homeopathic oxygen. So many questions. Don’t blank sugar pills already have this included? How do you keep the original oxygen from being inhaled or floating away? NPN 80009300.
