The Legalization of Marijuana - Part 1 of 2

On July 30, 2001, the 'Narcotic Control Regulation' was amended and the 'Marijuana Medical Access Regulation' came into force. This sparked the beginning of a heated national debate, the subject in question being the legalization of marijuana for medical purposes in Canada. While marijuana is still considered an illegal substance in Canada, it is approved for use under certain circumstances. It is available for applicants who have a terminal illness with a prognosis of a life span of less than 12 months, those who suffer from specific symptoms associated with certain serious medical conditions, or those who have symptoms associated with a serious medical circumstance, where conventional treatments have failed to relieve symptoms (Health Canada, "Medical Marijuana").

How First Time Offenders Can Defend Against New York Marijuana Charges

 As part of my practice of the defense of DWI and other traffic related matters I often have to deal with other drug offenses. It is all too common that a bong, pipe, and/or other paraphernalia (vaporizers, spoons, hammers, chillums, bubblers, sidecars, sherlocks, raydiators, tubes, bats, headies) are found inside the car. All the police have to do is scrape together enough resin/residue, and another criminal charge is added to the fray. Over the course of my years of practicing in the Fingerlakes I have defended many college students from SUNY Cortland, SUNY Binghamton, Cornell University, Ithaca College, Keuka College, etc. Marijuana use seems to go with college like cereal goes with milk. Some people think that New York State has decriminalized marijuana, sometimes it is only charged as a violation, but even in relatively small quantities it can be charged as a misdemeanor or even as a felony (if sold to minors). There were 92,800 arrests for Marijuana in New York during 2007. Males

The Addiction of Marijuana - Fact Or Fiction?

 According to our definition, there are a certain number of people who can use marijuana occasionally and sporadically and never become tolerant to or dependent on its effects. However, these people represent a small percentage of the total number of people that use marijuana. Most marijuana users will develop a regular habit, and over a period of time will begin to show some of the classic signs of addiction. The Addiction of Marijuana Most people who smoke marijuana do so for the intoxicating effect it produces-a relaxed and almost euphoric state-and once these effects are experienced, the desire to replicate the feeling becomes very strong. Over time though, the small amount of marijuana that once produced these feelings cannot do so any longer, and users tend to smoke more and more attempting to achieve the same effect. This is the classic sign of tolerance-an early and reliable sign of addiction. Dependence is another clear sign of marijuana addiction. Many people, especially thos

Federal Government is Impelled to Support Medical Marijuana by the American Medical Association

 The American Medical Association, which is the largest doctors' organization in the USA, has reconsidered its position towards marijuana and currently supports exploration and medical research on marijuana for medicinal use. On Tuesday, the group has persuaded the federal government to re-evaluate its controlled substance categorization of marijuana in Schedule I, which unfairly maligns the plant alongside with some of the most hazardous narcotic substances, such as LSD and heroin. AMA officer of board, Dr. Edward Langston specifies that just a least number of controlled, casual tests have ever been maintained on ingested marijuana in spite of medical research in by marijuana doctors and other experts, which encompasses more than thirty years. As for now, the group encourages new researches on marijuana's effectiveness in spite of its support for the classification of marijuana in Schedule I, since 1997, because more and more marijuana doctors appear over time. If you have any

Is Marijuana OK From A Spiritual Point Of View?

 Now it's possible that you didn't want to hear that brief and definite answer. However, this negative response is not a vague bias. There are specific adverse effects that marijuana has on your aura and on your soul, and this affects your spiritual development. You won't generally hear about these insights, because the people speaking about this topic, whether in favor or against, generally lack the subtle energy sensitivity to describe what happens to your energy field when you put marijuana in your body. Of course, it is possible that you agree with these conclusions about the inadvisability of smoking this substance, but it's important to clarify exactly why marijuana is a problem, because otherwise, the argument about it can get sidetracked. For example... One of the reasons often given for avoiding marijuana is the argument that it is illegal, -- at least at the time of this writing -- and therefore, it must be a bad substance. There are historical reasons for mar

Simple Methods Of Effectively Removing Weeds From Your Lawn

 here are various methods of eliminating weeds from your lawn. The most common one, of course, is to manually pull out the weeds. But aside from this tried-and-tested technique, there are other simple yet highly effective ways to get rid of all the unwanted plants threatening to invade your lawn. Some of these tips and methods are the following: Pour boiling water on the weeds. You can boil water for the sole purpose of pouring them over the weeds. Or when you boil potatoes or pasta, you can repurpose the boiling water by draining the pot directly onto the weeds that are slowly trying to invade your garden and even your patio. A splash of scalding water will shrink even the toughest weeds within a couple of days. Douse the weeds with vinegar. Pour vinegar on the weeds or a mixture of half water and half vinegar or even the leftover vinegar from a jar of pickles, and they will be dead a few days later. Vinegar has been proven to be effective in exterminating weeds with long taproots suc

How to Naturally Dispose of Weeds

 Take a look at your perennials. Do they have a lot of dead foliage on them still from last year? If so, cut it or pull it off. Clean up all of last years growth so the new growth will look clean and fresh. Get rid of all the weeds in your gardens. Yeah, yeah, I know, that's no fun, but if you get all of them out now you can maintain a weed free garden all season long. Well, almost weed free. Weed control is an all summer task, but it shouldn't be difficult or overwhelming. Most people fail at weed control because they never get it completely under control. So here's what you do. Start loosening the soil and removing all the existing weeds. Then put down newspaper at least 8 pages thick and cover that with about 2″ of mulch. You can also use brown paper grocery bags, they work great! I don't like those weed barrier fabrics that you can buy in the garden stores because... when I was in the landscaping business I pulled out miles of that stuff. Why did we pull it out? Bec
