      Marijuana can prevent cancer, not cause it
      "The Office of National Drug Control Policy has been spending millions of taxpayer dollars on advertisements and printed material declaring that marijuana causes cancer. The truth is just the opposite - marijuana can prevent cancer.

In this case, a man with two homes in foreclosure was using them as a growing operation for his marijuana operation -- since he was arrested, one can only guess that he didn't have a prescription from his doctor for medical use of his crop.From a story in the San Bernardino Sun:A bank employee stumbled upon a foreclosed house used to grow marijuana, leading to the seizure of an estimated $4.5 million in drugs in two houses and an arrest Saturday.

      Evidence Based Politics and Medical Marijuana: A Challenge to Republicans
      In health care there has been a great push towards evidence based medicine to ensure that treatments used are effective and that we don’t waste money on those which are not effective.

John Tierney posts on a challenge to Republican candidates regarding their views on medical marijuana, and backs up his views on the subject with evidence: Some of the Republican presidential candidates have dismissed medical marijuana as unnecessary or “too dangerous.” Now they’re being offered $10,000 to come up with the scientific evidence.

      Marijuana and Mortgages

It was speculated that these home marijuana farmers were getting into the ‘biz’ because of their increasing ARM mortgages, and the need for additional funds to cover it. That got me thinking about an incident that happened in my own neighborhood, literally across the street. A few years ago, one of the major employers in my area started MAJOR layoffs. People that were used to making six-figure incomes were suddenly shown the door. This had a huge ripple effect throughout the area because most of the people let go were IT workers, which drove the supply up (and the demand down). The quiet neighbor across the street was one of these layoffees. To add insult to injury, he soon got divorced, and the wife and kids moved away. he started staying in and wasn’t seen very often.

When I drink like this, I feel like we are drinking together again, all three of us".This goes on for several months, and then one day the guy walks into the pub and asks for only two shots.The bartender is worried that maybe something happened to one of his brothers."Is everythink OK"? he asks."What do you mean", answers the guy."Well, for months you have been asking for three shots. now you order two. Did something happen to one of your brothers?", the bartender asks.

      American Medical Association Opposes the Marijuana Tax Act of 1937
      Since the medicinal use of cannabis has not caused and is not causing addiction, the prevention of the use of the drug for medicinal purposes can accomplish no good end whatsoever. How far it may serve to deprive the public of the benefits of a drug that on further research may prove to be of substantial value, it is impossible to foresee.read more | digg story No TagsShare This

      Marijuana and Hookers? Fine, But Please Don’t Eat the Mushrooms
      The Netherlands has a pretty easygoing stance on sin. You can buy a woman sitting in her undies in a shop window; go on a marijuana binge culminating in your eating a shipping container of Doritos; and take your bikini top off any damned well where you please. But the local constabulary would like you to know: the mushrooms are off limits. That’s the word out of Amsterdam after Gaelle Caroff, a visiting teenager from France, gobbled up some magic mushies, flipped out, and fatally ran off the top of a building. That alone may be bad enough to get the psychedelic veges banned, but it’s only the latest in a string of mushroom-inspired self-inflicted damage from tourists. On one occasion, a British tourist went crazy in his hotel and started punching windows, while on another, an Icelandic tourist who thought he was being chased, jumped from a balcony and broke both his legs. A Danish tourist, also tripping on ’shrooms, recently took his car on a magical joy ride through a campg

      Gov. Mitt Romney meets a medical marijuana patient.
      At a campaign stop in Dover, Delaware, GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney has a tough time dealing with a question about medical marijuana from Clayton Holton, a wheelchair-bound man suffering from Muscular Dystrophy. Holton asks Romney if he’d arrest him or his doctors for using medical marijuana and that was all Romney needed to hear — he cuts and runs, moving on to shake hands with other people in the crowd, ignoring Holton as he presses him on the question. What a scumbag.Further proof that this country can use Anyone But Romney in 2008.

      Republicans and Medical Marijuana
      I know medical marijuana is not, nor should it be, the defining issue of the 2008 presidential election. But, it seems the stubborn refusal of the current administration and all the Republican candidates, Dr. Ron Paul excepted, tells the country much about these folks.Last Saturday Mitt Romney bravely confronted marijuana and the disabled in Dover, New Hampshire:The other day, at another town meeting in New Hampshire, a sickly Linda Macia mentioned from her wheelchair that she used medical marijuana. Miss Macia politely asked John McCain his position on permitting it. Barely were the words out of her mouth before the senator spun on his heels and stalked away.This is another one of those things I find puzzling.There is certainly evidence marijuana has medicinal value. And why wouldn't the old party of states' rights want the federal government to let each state decide for itself whether it wishes to permit disabled and terminally ill patients to use cannabis under a docto

      Hizbullah's Marijuana Enriches Financial Pot
      The Hizbullah terrorist organization in Lebanon is reaping a bumper marijuana crop in the Bekaa Valley in Lebanon, according to the French news agency AFP. The area, dominated by Hizbullah Shi'ite Muslims, is benefiting from the continuing Lebanese political crisis that has prevented authorities from risking warfare with Hizbullah terrorists."We targeted eight sectors in the Bekaa and Hermel region but the army could not fully ensure the security of my agents in light of its battles with the Islamists at the Nahr al-Bared refugee camp," said drug enforcement officer Adel Machmouchi. He said his agents came under rocket-propelled grenade attacks when they approached a marijuana field last month.

      Marijuana Found In Vick’s System
      In yet another black-eye for Falcons quarterback Michael Vick, Chris Vivlamore of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports that Vick has been tested positive for marijuana and as a result, has been ordered to wear an electronic monitoring device and receive mental health counseling, according to court documents filed on Wednesday. Vick tested positive for marijuana in a urine sample submitted on September 13, 2007 - seventeen days after entering a plea agreement in Federal court on dogfighting charges. As part of his pretrial release, Vick had agreed to “refrain from use or unlawful possession of a narcotic drug or other controlled substance.” A probation officer (Vick’s, I would imagine), Patricia Locket-Ross, petitioned Judge Henry E. Hudson to impose stricter conditions on Vick on Monday. Other conditions imposed on Vick include: being restricted to his Virginia home daily from 10 PM to 6 AM; the home confinement will include electronic monitoring at Vick’s

      Someone told me marijuana was a herb!
      So here I am sleeping (finally) and enjoying a wonderful dream where everyone is happy and all of a sudden my mother turns into a monkey! That's right. A MONKEY! Now something in my brain tells me it is not normal for a mother (especially mine!) to turn into a monkey so I slowly wake up and come to some sort of consciousness only to discover that the noise is outside our house and YES it sounds exactly like a monkey. You know the "oo oo oo oo oo WAH WAH" sound they make (Picture Cheetah from Tarzan). So not only did it wake me up but it woke Dan as well and he decides to get up and open the shop to let me sleep in. I asked him to kill the damn bird before he left but evidently he could not find it because shortly after he left it started up again. I covered my ears and got another couple of hours of sleep. This peri-menopause stuff is awful! What is it? God decided that a woman needs to have something to replace the sleep deprivation caused by children so he just adds a hormonal stew

      Who'd have guessed: Growing marijuana isn't a good thing
      While most view growing marijuana in the context of illicit drug-trade problems and the effect this substance is having on our kids, there are few who see the real problems this is causing our environment. Sure, there are few ecological issues in a backyard propagation - apart from the dreaded increase in phosphate fertilisers. But the problem escalates when we consider that the bulk of marijuana comes from illegal plantations grown in the most remote forests. For five months of the year growers tend their 'secret gardens' carefully keeping their stash as hidden as possible counting the days until harvest. Alex Breitler, from Recordnet asks this; What will they leave behind? Irrigation tubes that snake for a mile or more over forested ridges. Pesticides that have drained into creeks and entered the food chain, sickening wildlife. Piles of trash and human waste in the most rugged and bucolic drainages. Pro-marijuana lobbyists argue that if the drug were legalised then these pro
