Reviewed Apr 30 2009 • 1 review • health, civil rights, drugs • reuters.com

"Mexico's Senate approved a bill on Tuesday decriminalizing possession of small amounts of narcotics for personal use, in order to free resources to fight violent drug cartels.

The bill, proposed by conservative President Felipe Calderon, would make it legal to carry up to 5 grams (0.18 ounces) of marijuana, 500 milligrams (0.018 ounces) of cocaine and tiny quantities of other drugs such as heroin and methamphetamines."

Kathy Freston: The Breathtaking Effects Of Cutting Back...

Rated Apr 01 2009 • 11 reviews • health, food, convservation • huffingtonpost.com

I am of the opinion that becoming a vegetarian is one of the most radical, practical and immediate steps one can take toward personal and global change. Beyond the compassion for critters issue, animal husbandry has been pointed to as the number one cause of global warming. It is amazing to see how quiet folks who fancy themselves big guns for change will get when you bring this topic up.

If everyone went vegetarian just for one day, the U.S. would save:

* 100 billion gallons of water, enough to supply all the homes in New England for almost 4 months;
* 1.5 billion pounds of crops otherwise fed to livestock, enough to feed the state of New Mexico for more than a year;
* 70 million gallons of gas--enough to fuel all the cars of Canada and Mexico combined with plenty to spare;
* 3 million acres of land, an area more than twice the size of Delaware;
* 33 tons of antibiotics.

If everyone went vegetarian just for one day, the U.S. would prevent:

* Greenhouse gas emissions equivalent to 1.2 million tons of CO2, as much as produced by all of France;
* 3 million tons of soil erosion and $70 million in resulting economic damages;
* 4.5 million tons of animal excrement;
* Almost 7 tons of ammonia emissions, a major air pollutant.

What Causes Skin Itching After Your Shower? - Associated...

Rated Mar 05 2009 • 2 reviews • health • associatedcontent.com

"The problem of skin itching after shower, at bedtime, and during the winter is pretty common. While the time of day, the relative cleanliness, and the time of year seem unrelated, they are actually mostly caused by the same thing: sodium lauryl sulfate."

White House Says Medical Marijuana Raids Will End | Stop...

Rated Feb 06 2009 • 1 review • health, economics, law, medicine, drugs • stopthedrugwar.org

"The president believes that federal resources should not be used to circumvent state laws, and as he continues to appoint senior leadership to fill out the ranks of the federal government, he expects them to review their policies with that in mind."

It looks like we're on the verge of a major victory for state medical marijuana laws. For over a decade, this battle has raged from the hills of California to the Nation's Capital. It has been a defining cause, not only for the medical marijuana community, but for drug policy reform as a whole.

There is no question that a great many challenges remain in our path, but let's take a moment to reflect on the fact that the president is poised to order the DEA to stand down. That is not something that happens easily or often.
