Cannabis can "reduce nerve pain"

2010-08-31T15:01:45Z

Smoking cannabis has been proven to ease pain for people suffering from nerve damage, in possibly the first scientific test to study inhaling the drug.

Canadian scientists tested four different potency levels of herbal cannabis in 21 patients aged between 25 and 77, and found smoking also reduced anxiety and depression.

Patients with chronic neuropathic pain resulting from surgery or traumatic injury were asked to smoke 25 mg from a pipe three times a day, and researchers found no one suffered serious side-effects.

All those inhaling the most potent drug, which contained 9.4% of the active ingredient THC, reported feeling "high" and euphoric on one occasion, but said they felt less pain, anxiety and depression, and slept better.

Some of these patients said they experienced headaches, dry eyes, dizziness, numbness, coughs and a burning sensation after puffing on the pipe, but none showed a significant change in heart rate, kidney function or vital signs.

Previously, clinical trials used cannabis extract in pill form to treat certain types of pain, to avoid claims of patients getting high. It is thought this report, published in the Canadian Medical Association Journal (CMAJ), is the first to study the effects of smoked cannabis.

George Michael Charged With Drug Possession

2010-08-12T15:31:56Z

Singer George Michael has been charged with possession of cannabis and driving while under the influence of drink or drugs.

He was arrested near his home in Hampstead in the early hours of July 4 after a minor car crash outside Snappy Snaps, the photographic shop.

The star was charged on Thursday morning and freed on bail.

He will appear before Highbury magistrates on August 24.

"Early one Sunday morning, about a month ago, he had been to the Gay Pride March in London and there was a minor collision between his car and a building," said Sky News' crime correspondent Martin Brunt.

"He was arrested and tested by police. He was bailed and when he returned to the police station in Camden this morning he was told that he would be charged with possession of cannabis and driving while unfit through drink or drugs.

"He has been given bail again and will appear in court in about two weeks time where he will face those charges.

"We don't know whether he will plead guilty or not guilty.

"This is not the first time he has been in this kind of trouble. He has openly talked of his dependence on cannabis and his efforts to try and reduce his intake."

Patients denied cannabis spray

2010-08-05T09:41:59Z

A CANNABIS-based drug that may relieve symptoms of multiple sclerosis will be denied to Calderdale patients.

NHS Calderdale has confirmed the oral spray Sativex will not be routinely funded for the area's estimated 300 sufferers.

The newly-licensed medicine contains cannabinoids, extracted from cannabis plants, which can help to relieve painful muscle spasms.

There are fears that blocking its use could criminalise patients, who may resort to taking the class B drug instead.

MS sufferer Richard Schofield, from Halifax, said: "Some people say smoking it or having it in a cake does alleviate their problems and I'm quite sure there would be people who would go ahead with it."

Mr Schofield, who said he is satisfied with the medication he is prescribed, added: "For me personally, I don't think Sativex would be of any benefit at the moment, but I'm sure for some people it may well be an answer."

Mr Schofield's wife Liz, a support officer at the Halifax branch of the MS Society, said: "Living with MS is difficult and the symptoms can be very debilitating - anything that helps people manage their condition is good news and it should be made available if there is a clinical need."

The spray has been approved by the Department of Health and was licensed for the first time in the UK in June by the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency.

The medicine costs £125 for a 10ml vial - around £11 per patient each day - and the decision to fund it will be down to individual primary care trusts.

NHS Calderdale said it had rejected the drug on advice from the Yorkshire and the Humber Specialised Commissioning Group.

A spokesman for the group said: "We agreed that Sativex does not provide enough benefit to patients to justify its high cost. We also thought that this medicine had not been tested over a long enough time to be able to tell if it will work safely in people with multiple sclerosis, who often need treatment for many months or years."

Laura Weir, head of policy and campaigns at the MS Society, said: "It is extremely unfortunate that Yorkshire and Humber Specialised Commissioning Group have advised PCTs to not fund Sativex.

"People with MS urgently need access to effective treatments and therapies - this decision is yet another example of the continuing postcode lottery that people with MS face."

Morocco: Marijuana Economy Goes up in Smoke

2010-07-30T09:27:59Z

For generations this remote mountainous town has been the heart of Morocco's cannabis-growing area, where growers earned a reasonable living from cultivating marijuana.

Although growing cannabis was officially illegal, authorities turned a blind eye and farmers had fields of the leafy green weed.

But now farmers are angry that they are being forced to pay bribes to local police to continue growing the crop.

In this village, in the heart of the Rif Mountains, thousands of farmers protested while the police and the army watched helplessly.

“Long live the king!” chanted the crowd, invoking Morocco’s ruler as a shield from police repression. “Stop stealing from us!”

Thousands of families live off the cultivation of cannabis in this region that stretches more than 11,000 square miles. The growing of cannabis is commonly referred to as "the culture of kif," (kif is a term for the dried bud of the female marijuana plant). Farmers say the area's harsh climate makes it impossible to grow anything else.

Although it is illegal to cultivate cannabis, it remains one of Morocco’s most lucrative sources of income. Morocco is estimated to have grown 53,000 tons of cannabis in 2005, according to the most recent figures from the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime. Most of the marijuana is processed into hashish. European countries complain that Morocco is the prime source of the cannabis smuggled into their territories.

The Moroccan government claims to be cracking down on hashish production in accordance with several international treaties.

Since 2003, Morocco has received $28 million euros from the European Union to eradicate the cultivation of cannabis. In addition the United States has given $43 million, between 2005 and 2012, to help farmers find new crops to replace marijuana.

In the past year, Moroccan authorities have cracked down on cannabis production using different strategies, including burning fields.

Marijuana is still openly grown in the villages in the Rif mountains but the farmers claim that their already meager income is now being dramatically reduced by authorities who demand bribes to allow the cultivation to continue.

"There are no alternatives in this region — we are currently in the fifth generation of kif culture — this region needs assistance,” explained Abdellah Ljout, a local representative and social activist. “People are not saying they want to cultivate cannabis. They say they want to survive. They are ready to stop if they find another dignified way to earn a living."

Ljout said he thinks the solution starts first with the political will to eradicate the illegal crop in a region where cannabis has been cultivated for more than 100 years.

The Moroccan government — which declined to comment for this story — enforces the law erratically, he said.

Attempts by police to search one farmer's house for cannabis sparked the anger of the local population. Military and police trucks surrounded the house at 4 a.m. on April 10. But the farmer’s wife barred entry and dozens of neighbors gathered around to support the family.

The next day, an estimated crowd of 10,000 people — mostly young men — gathered in the main street of the village to voice their anger.

Villagers say that the local authorities regularly threaten them with warrants to prevent them from talking. They make sure farmers know that they can arrest them at any time they choose. The authorities invoked the presence of illegal weapons as an excuse to search the house.

"They accused us of having weapons and I told them we did not have any. A policeman checked my father-in-law's house and didn’t find anything,” said Abdelouaret El Bohidi, a cannabis farmer. ”Here, everyone knows each other. They know there aren't any weapons and that we are against weapons.”

In the region, there are a few palatial houses owned by a handful of farmers and middlemen who have profited from cannabis cultivation and the production of hashish. But the vast majority of locals struggle to earn a decent living in the face of obligatory bribes and poor weather conditions.

El Bohidi produces about 10 kilos a year that he sells at $300 each. He says that he has no choice but to bribe the local authorities. But it was the bribery payments to local authorities that brought these cultivators to break their silence.

"This is everything I own: I use it to buy grains, wheat, oil, soap, school books. I use it to pay electricity,” said El Bohidi, referring to a bag of marijuana. “If they take this from me, I will lose my mind. I won’t have anything left to feed my children.”

One farmer who asked to remain anonymous out of fear of retaliation said that two or three times a year he has to bribe the authorities. They usually come to his house and bargain over his freedom.

"If you don't give them anything, you go to jail,” he said. “They have nothing to lose. They throw you in jail to set you as an example to the others."

The farmers want the government to take a strong stance to stop the harassment for bribes.

"If they want to forbid us to cultivate, they should tell us on television, or our elected officials should tell us,” said Mohamed Amaghir, another farmer. “We will cultivate something else if they give us the means to do it. All we are asking for is a piece of bread and nothing else."

'Decriminalise personal drug use', suggests chairman of the Bar Council

2010-07-20T10:27:44Z

Nicholas Green QC, the chairman of the Bar Council for England and Wales, said it was “rational” to consider “decriminalising personal drug use”.

Taking such a step would save the economy billions of pounds – drug-related crime costs the economy £13billion a year - free up police time, cut crime and improve public health.

However campaigners and MPs rounded on the remarks, made in a newsletter to barristers, saying it sent out the wrong message on drug use.

Mr Green, who runs body which the 4,500 criminal and defence barristers, said: “A growing body of comparative evidence suggests that decriminalising personal use can have positive consequences.

“It can free up huge amounts of police resources, reduce crime and recidivism and improve public health. All this can be achieved without any overall increase in drug usage. If this is so, then it would be rational to follow suit.”

Mr Green, who has made his name primarily as an expert in competition law and arbitration issues, said the Council was apolitical and could speak out in favour policies “which work and not those which simply play to the gallery."

And this will save money and mean that there is less pressure on the justice system.”

In the paper which looked at how money coul d be saved in the criminal justice system, Mr Green also spoke out in favour of Ken Clarke, the Justice secretary, who has signalled that fewer criminals should be sent to prison.

He said: “If the prison population could be reduced from circa 85,000 to 80,000 it could save over £200million per annum.

“There is a great deal of research from elsewhere to suggest that a less “bang ’em up” approach to sentencing actually reduces crime.

“The tabloids’ response, which is to throw more people into custody, simply does not work.”

The maximum sentence for using a Class A drug – like heroin, cocaine and ecstasy – is seven years in jail. For lesser Class B drugs - like cannabis - and Class C drugs, the maximum penalties are five years and two years in prison.

Keith Vaz MP, chairman of the Commons' Home Affairs Committee, said: “I am shocked by the suggestion that drugs should be decriminalised for personal use.

“The legalisation of drugs would simply create the mistaken impression that these substances are not harmful, when in fact this is far from the truth.”

“The answer to the issue of drug abuse is not to merely decriminalise it. This is not the best solution for the wider public or the police.”

James Clappison MP, a former member of the Commons’ Home Affairs Committee, said the remarks were “not entirely a helpful contribution to the debate”.

He said: “There seems to be a very strong link between recreational drug use, leading to drug addiction leading to crime fuelled by drug addiction. I would have thought the chairman of the Bar Council would have seen that for himself.”

Philip Davies, Conservative MP for Shipley, added: “It is a ludicrous argument to say let’s legalise drugs to take pressure off the police and the courts. That is an argument to legalise everything.”

Debra Bell, a mother whose son developed severe personality changes after smoking cannabis from the age of 14 with his friends, said: “What is talking about? This will send out the wrong message to youngsters.

“There are children as young as 10 getting involved in drug use. Recreational drugs are addictive – that is why there are controlled.”

Ms Bell, who now runs the “Talking About Cannabis” advice website, added: “For some adults it might not be a problem, but that is not the case for children and adolescents. It divides families.

A spokesman the Bar Council said: “We have not called for the decriminalisation of drugs. Plainly we are recommending an evidence-based approach.”

A Home Office spokesman said: “As set out in the coalition agreement, we want to ensure that getting off drugs for good is a clear goal of drug treatment.

“We will also review sentencing policy to help offenders come off drugs, explore alternative forms of secure, treatment-based accommodation for drug offenders, launch a rehabilitation revolution to break cycles of drug misuse and introduce a system of temporary bans on new legal highs.”

David Cameron Could Be Man To De-Criminalise Cannabis

2010-07-14T13:13:03Z

David Cameron could be the man to de-criminalise cannabis as the most "drug-experienced" PM, a former government adviser has claimed.

Prof David Nutt insisted he was optimistic there would be changes in the British narcotic laws.

He commented: "UK politics itself has in recent years been a major block to rational debate.

"Perhaps this will change now David Cameron is Prime Minister as he is the most obviously drug-experienced person to have held this post, having been caught using cannabis as a schoolboy at Eton (for which he was not expelled)."

Prof Nutt, a former chairman of the Advisory Council on the Misuse of Drugs, told the academic journal Prometheus: "As an MP, he served on the science and technology committee and took a progressive view on drugs arguing that MDMA [ecstasy] was inappropriately positioned in class A.

"Soon after he became the leader and repeated this view, and within hours was dragged before the party grandees and told that this was not the way to win power, so he publicly retracted this view.

"It will be interesting too see what line the Government takes on drugs in general and school expulsion for possession."

Prof Nutt, who now teaches at Imperial College London, said UK drug laws are "unscientific and unjust". The expert wants more action against alcohol and less tough action against ecstasy.

He even blamed an ecstasy crackdown with heavier prison sentences as a possible cause for more boozing, saying: "It could be argued that the rise of binge drinking in the 90s might have been driven by concerns over potential criminalisation for possession."

Prof Nutt was sacked by former Home Secretary Alan Johnson when he launched a campaign for the de-criminalisation of cannabis.

He added: "It is critical the Government takes the Lib Dem approach with an independent committee to assess drug harms. The statement by science minister David Willetts that he regrets the processes that lead to my sacking is a sign of a better approach."

Canada's 'Prince of Pot' admits marijuana seed dealing

2010-05-26T15:10:41Z

A Canadian cannabis advocate has pleaded guilty to selling millions of marijuana seeds in the US in exchange for an agreed five year jail term.

Marc Emery appeared in court in Seattle after being extradited from Vancouver.

Emery, who became known as the Prince of Pot, sold millions of marijuana seeds around the world by post before his 2005 arrest.

His seeds were traced to illegal cannabis-growing operations in the US, US drug enforcement officials said.

Emery's sentencing hearing is scheduled for 11 August, and he or prosecutors can withdraw from the plea deal if the judge issues a different sentence.

A vocal advocate of legalising cannabis Emery was arrested in Canada on a US extradition request, but bailed amid legal efforts to have him serve time in Canada if convicted.

His wife Jodie has called his extradition an "outsourcing of justice".

In a recent interview Emery said he had no regrets about his online dealership that sold seeds to consenting adults, the Associated Press reported.

There is also a brand new strain, also from Reserva Privada. It's called Headband and is a highly acclaimed strain that has not been available in seed form for quite some time. The details are below:

3rd Coffeeshop High Times Cannabis Cup 2009
The Headband has a great yield, and the high is completely medical and not too over-powering. Finding a keeper mother is easy in a pack of 6 and this plant clones easily as well, rooting in 8-10 days. She grows fast in vegetive stage and spreads out wide to produce many tops and an even canopy. Producing heavy resin early and a great aroma, our Headband has bag and head appeal She doesn’t grow as tall as Sour Diesel or as stretchy as the OG Kush and is not so picky with the nutrients. She has a fuely-soury taste and smell with a long lasting high. She is a good all day smoke that won’t knock you down like some of the heavy indicas and is a good strain for anxiety. This original cross is not the 707 or any other clone only “Headband”, this cross was made by reversing the OG Kush to pollinate the Sour Diesel.
Sour Diesel x OG Kush
70% Indica : 30% Sativa
Flowering Time: 9-10 weeks
Yield: 500-600g/m2

And that's not all! We've also added yet more new seed banks recently:

Tories slam Lib Dems' call for cannabis cafes

2010-04-30T09:27:58Z

CAFES for pot smokers could be legalised under secret Lib Dem plans, it emerged yesterday. A leaked policy document from Nick Clegg’s party calls for the decriminalisation of the possession of cannabis, “social supply” of the drug to adults and cultivation of plants for personal use.

The document follows an internal party vote that commits the Lib Dems to making it “no longer a crime for the occupier or manager of premises to permit someone to use cannabis on those premises”.

The party’s constitution binds its leaders – if they win power – to implement votes carried at annual conferences.

The Tories, who unearthed the document, said the policy would go further than the Amsterdam model of turning a blind eye to “cannabis coffee shops”. Cafe owners could allow customers to smoke the drug outside or buy “hash brownies” and vaporised cannabis.

Tory Shadow Home Secretary Chris Grayling said: “Lib Dem policy on drugs is deeply worrying. It’s quite clear they want to be soft on crime and to sign up to more and more powers from Brussels. I have spoken to countless people whose lives have been wrecked by hard drugs.”

Nick Clegg has also come under fire for suggesting that heroin and other drugs should made legally available.

The Lib Dem leader claimed that criminalising drug use was restricting “individual freedom and civil liberties” – and argued that drug offences should not lead to jail.

While serving as an MEP, he complained it was unfair that drug users were being pushed to the fringes of society. He said heroin should be made available to addicts under medical supervision.

He signed a motion calling on EU states “to take measures to make the fight against organised crime and trafficking in narcotics and psychotropic substances more effective by establishing a system of legal control and regulation of production, sale and use of currently illegal substances”.

Last night a Lib Dem spokesman said: “We will always base drugs policy on the independent scientific advice of experts.”

Will cannabis come back to haunt Labour?

2010-04-29T09:13:46Z

On May 6th 2010 the population of the UK (that has the vote) will go to the polls to decide who will run the government for the next four years, and for a British cannabis community which numbers between 3 and 7 million people depending on which newspaper you read, the future is bleak.

Labour
In the red corner, the current Labour government's stand on cannabis is only too well known.

Regardless of the fact 14 of the United States have now legalised cannabis for medical use, or the fact that over 50 million people world wide now have access to a legal supply of cannabis to some degree, the Labour government stubbornly refuses to open a debate on what the legal status of cannabis should be.

Indeed rather than trying to reduce the strain on an ailing and antiquated judicial system it would appear Gordon Brown would seek to add to its problems, by classifying cannabis a class B drug back in January 2009.

Which brings with it the threat of a 14 year prison term if you're caught dealing.

So did the change of law reduce harm? Or reduce the amounts of people experimenting with cannabis?

Not if the social networks are anything to go by (which they are), as the amount of cannabis advocating Facebook and twitter members is higher than ever (pardon the pun)!

The reality of course, is the politicians know this only too well. Showing the reclassification for what it really is.

A mathematical equation which is meant to work out in favour of the judicial system. How much it costs to police versus how much it earns.

A 'stealth tax' by any other name, which is used to earn tax revenue from a commodity outside of the legal tax system. And who gives a damn how many of our children are convicted of a "drug offence" for being caught carrying cannabis three times in the same area. At least I think thats how it works although its really hard to say for sure.

So a vote for Labour is a vote for a party which has no new ideas on the cannabis issue. Just plenty of old ones.

Conservative
To be honest there's no point even mentioning the Conservatives as their primary spin doctor (Paul Dacre at the Daily Mail), won't have anything positive said about cannabis in his newspaper and lets face it, thats where tory policy is cooked up.

Which is remarkable when you think the mechanisms cannabis uses to destroy tumours have been called remarkable by at least two practicing American doctors.

Or that a British bio-science company called GW Pharmaceuticals, who just happen to be based at a government owned top secret Porton Down facility, is tip-toeing around quietly in the background, attempting to license its cannabis spray treatment for MS (called Sativex), under the protective shroud of prohibition.

How does THAT work? How in this instance, can Home Secretary Alan Johnson maintain cannabis has no medicinal use to us? Its an outrage.

Which brings us squarely to the third of the so-called 'Big Three'.

Liberal Democrats
After the first televised leaders debate, it didn't pass unnoticed that so rattled were Messr's Brown and Cameron, by the calm and reasoned arguments put forwards by Lib Dem leader Nick Clegg, they decided to join forces in trying their best to shoot down the cheeky young upstart, by releasing negative policy stories in their respective newspapers.

'He said this', said Gordon Brown. 'He said that' said David Cameron.

But all that has done is stoke Mr Clegg's flames, and especially so amongst a cannabis community which is more 'connected' and in touch with current affairs than ever before.

A South Wales man who used cannabis to kick a damaging alcohol habit actually wrote to Nick Clegg's constituency office in Sheffield, to ask for the Lib Dem's standpoint. This is what he received in return;

If the Lib Dems are voted into power at the 2010 General Election, they will;

* Re-classify cannabis BACK to a Class C drug.

* Adopt a policy of not prosecuting possession for own use, social supply to adults or cultivation of cannabis plants for own use.

* The Lib Dems will repeal Sections 8 (c) and (d) of the Misuse of Drugs Act so that it is no longer a crime for the occupier or manager of premises to permit someone to use cannabis on those premises.

* And they will also Permit medical use of cannabis derivatives, subject to appropriate pharmaceutical controls and the successful conclusion of current clinical trials.

So with this in mind, please vote, and whilst you're at it, please choose your vote carefully.

Using Cannabis To Treat Health Problems

2010-04-23T15:30:35Z

There was a time when I despised the smell of marijuana; inconveniently, it coincided with my college years.

So it would probably surprise those who knew me then as a violin-playing, straight-A student to discover that today, at 33, I cruise the streets of Los Angeles with a pot prescription. Then again, maybe it wouldn’t. But it surprises me.

As the child of pianists who took trips to Carnegie Hall while others tripped out to The Doors, I always thought of marijuana as a “gateway drug”, a bad weed that could only lead to suicide or, worse, failure in the arts. When I gave it more of a chance in my late twenties, it wasn’t to boost “creativity”. In fact, I don’t even know if I like cannabis yet, given all of its strains and forms.

Late last year, I simply began to experiment with it in search of relief for some vexing medical symptoms.

I was living in the right city at the right time, to be sure, but I lacked the positive and extensive marijuana history that so many of my peers enjoyed.

In 1999, I took my first hit as a college junior from a pipe that belonged to my younger brother.

At the time, I was feeling even more invincible than other young men: I had recently survived Hodgkin’s disease and a stem-cell bone marrow transplant, following sub-lethal chemotherapy and a failed romance with an engineer. If I could endure such objective toxicity, I reasoned, something natural couldn’t cause too much harm. I was right, but all I remember is coughing like an emphysema patient and obsessing about ( imagined ) cockroaches on my walls.

A few years later, I tried pot again, while working in Manhattan as a music writer.

But after a similarly bad experience at a Radiohead concert, with my undead pal the Maharishi, I ended the relationship.

Then my life changed dramatically: in 2005, after I moved to Los – -Angeles, I began to experience the onset of mysterious after-effects from my “cured” cancer, including peripheral nerve damage and a potentially malignant lesion in the base of my skull, something that few doctors could make sense of, much less treat.

Fortunately, California life proved to be therapeutic in itself: I found solace in the sylvan hills, the surf, the Pacific dolphins.

My new crowd included more creative, fewer type-A people.

And of course drugs were every-where. The first day in my new apartment, I “lunched” at a neighbouring rocker’s pad. In a scene like something out of Annie Hall, he offered me a dent out of a miniature Matterhorn of cocaine.

Later that winter, I attended a Christmas party at the home of a wannabe-dancer-turned-television production assistant. Instead of the usual ornaments, her Christmas tree dangled bags of weed, joints and hash. “How’d she get all that stuff?” I asked a studio musician. “She goes to one of those, like, medical places. She’s ’sick’ with ‘insomnia’.”

“Opposite world” is how my New York-based brother described my new dimension. He was on to something.

Not only did everyone seem to survive in this city without a job, but the green crosses on storefronts with signs reading “Compassionate Care Collective” weren’t advertising chemists.

It was a new century, and these were a new breed of “legal” medical – -marijuana dispensaries stores that sold medically approved weed in California even though the drug was proscribed under US federal law.

As pot shops spread, there was a growing pride in the laidback medical–marijuana subculture, with everyone from celebrities to staid professionals indulging as rampantly as the TV show Weeds – -featuring a pot-dealing soccer mom would have you believe. Gourmet chefs offered “secret” upgrades on the pot brownie; weekend classes sprang up to teach medical-marijuana business skills; you could buy $100,000 cultivation trailers at dedicated trade shows. Hand in hand with all this came a growing public acceptance that cannabis could help people with chronic conditions, from cancer and multiple sclerosis to Aids and attention-deficit disorder and a tacit acknowledgment by LA authorities that the legal ban would henceforth go largely unenforced.

The medical marijuana system was easy to work. All you needed was a doctor to recommend cannabis to treat diagnoses as vague as pain, anxiety or insomnia.

Then, you could join a local “collective” and take your pick from different varieties of medical-grade weed, which in some places you could buy with a credit card. To find a doctor, you could visit a dispensary for a referral if you didn’t want to cold-call a number from an alternative newspaper or road sign. Professional weed doctors charged $100-$250 for a recommendation letter that was valid for a year. Some even provided a credit-card-sized version.

Armed with that, you could buy nearly as much marijuana as you liked ( up to 8oz ) in various forms, including starter plants.

It was revolutionary: stronger strains, more choice and no drug dealers.

Of course, it could have been all that vitamin D shining down on me as I worked poolside, but if LA culture and chronic illness had taught me anything, it was that people should live as they like; I wasn’t about to crusade against abuse of the medical marijuana laws, particularly when long, expensive visits to the country’s best hospitals had failed to relieve my legitimate neuromuscular symptoms. But I was also victim of a cognitive disconnect: after seeing how successfully chemistry and -physics cured cancer, I didn’t think much about alternative medicine.

And so I watched the medical marijuana scene from afar, my nerves and muscles continuing to scorch and twitch under T-shirts and denim.

Then, in 2006, a men’s magazine sent me to Virginia to report on a religious teenager with Hodgkin’s disease who had been taken into temporary custody for disavowing chemotherapy in favour of herbs and natural food. I soon found myself ensconced in the case and wanted to take my health into my hands using “natural” means.

That led me to Donald Abrams, head of University of California San Francisco’s Osher Center for Integrative Medicine, a conventionally trained oncologist who had also studied under wellness guru Andrew Weil. Abrams put me on a successful anti-inflammatory diet and recommended acupuncture. But unbeknownst to me at the time, he was also a prominent cannabis researcher whose studies confirmed the plant’s success with easing neuropathic pain.

And so, last winter, when I decided to give my mystifying skull-base lesion more attention by scheduling an innovative procedure with a leading neurosurgeon, I contacted Abrams, too. By this time, my attitude towards pot had matured: if I could authorise a doctor to drill into my head and suck a tumour out through my nose, how bad could weed be? Still, I wanted to go about this properly, by first asking a trusted expert whether this “treatment” could actually help. I sent Abrams an e-mail, and within minutes received a resounding affirmative along with a digitally signed letter on UCSF letterhead recommending medical marijuana for pain. For once, it was enviable to be me.

Walk into West Hollywood’s premier dispensary, The Farmacy whose owner was a pharmacist before becoming a cannabis entrepreneur and you could be in a Malibu cafe. There’s a well-lit waiting room; the couches are chic and comfortable; and the light-wood grain of the furniture blends calmingly with surfboards and black-and-white Ansel Adams-style photos on the walls.

On my first visit, last December, a smiley woman who looked like Alanis Morissette was sitting at reception.

In front of her stood a jar of quarters for people who needed coins for the parking meters. After some pleasantries, Alanis took my recommendation letter, phoned UCSF, and had me sign in. Then she gave me a “passport”, a customer loyalty card of sorts: stamp it after each purchase so you can earn a free score.

I also received an introductory discount coupon, and soon was escorted behind a wall into the actual store: a pot-smoker’s dreamspace replete with a quasi-coffee house counter, gourmet chocolates in a glass case, a refrigerator filled with marijuana soda, and a freezer storing marijuana gelato.

The clerk, or “budtender”, asked about my “preferences”. A deadringer for the actor James Franco, he looked unfailingly chill. “Nothing too strong,” I said. I explained my symptoms and that I’d heard about two opposing types of marijuana indica and sativa the former more of a downer, the latter more like an upper.

“I want indica,” I said. I wanted to slow overactive nerves.

Franco nodded and let me smell three different strains.

One smelled like lavender, another like peat. I took the most basic.

Franco seemed confident that it would work and also sold me marijuana chocolate bars with almonds.

I bought the “edibles” because I don’t like smoking anything, really, and because I lacked an expensive vapouriser such as The Volcano, a $700 product that today’s upscale weed-lovers use to inhale the active ingredients in marijuana without the ash. In minutes, I was in my car, and within the hour I was home, eating a confection with my wife in front of a documentary film. My crampy muscles soon relaxed, yet I remained completely lucid.

No giggling, no forgetting. No paranoia.

Three days later, early on Saturday evening and I’m ready to go to the next level. so far the Farmacy chocolate bars have worked well: Divided into single “doses”, they gradually ease my peripheral nerves, which often feel like fraying electric wires shorting out, sizzling, popping.

I don’t experience a “head high” ( no imaginings or unprovoked laughing fits ) and I’m now confident enough to try the Farmacy weed. It’s called Sensi Star, which Google tells me took first prize at the 1999 High Times Cannabis Cup. But what do the experts say about how it actually works?

Well, according to the Marijuana Strain Library at the site Kindgreenbuds com ( the world’s leading cancer experts have yet launch a weed site ), the strain’s THC levels hover around 20 per cent ( THC is marijuana’s most active ingredient ), rendering it a “one-hitter quitter” while its CBD content measures 0.9 per cent ( CBD, another but less prominent active ingredient, has been shown in studies to alleviate pain and inflammation, and appears in Sativex, a mouth spray available in Canada for multiple sclerosis patients ). Of course, I don’t know what any of this means, really, but this is already more than I learnt at the dispensary simply that Sensi Star is “really nice”.

I smoke while my wife works on her dissertation. I forget the “one–hitter quitter” rule and soon I’ve taken enough to fill up half my glass pipe’s bowl a small proportion of the eighth of an ounce that I had purchased.

I take rapid inhalations I’m not just bad at smoking, I’m annoyed that I’m bad at smoking; California hasn’t killed all the type-A in me. So, gallantly, I smoke more, and 20 minutes pass.

Suddenly, I’m calling out for my wife. “I don’t know what’s happening,” I stutter. “Everything’s changing; I’m for-forgetting; everything I say; wait, what did I…? Maybe we should put those knives away; they look sharp!” I point to the cutlery on the kitchen counter, terrified, watching my hold on my consciousness slip away. I’m walking forward and backward, and obsessively shifting from one leg to another. “I’m dying; I’m not me, please save my life!”

I don’t know who I am, and as Lina starts to rub my arms, asking me if I feel her hands on my skin ( I don’t ), I wonder who she is, too. This isn’t paranoia.

I’m crying one moment, laughing hysterically the next, my “self” plunging deeper into the abyss. “Please take me to the hospital,” I scream. “I am losing myself, who am I? Ha! Oh shit, this is getting worse.

It’s faster.

It’s faster!”

I’m lucky that Lina, a psychotherapist knowledgeable about substance abuse and psycho-pharmacology, doesn’t tell me that she’s never witnessed such a severe reaction; what she would later describe as “part-temporary psychosis, part-temporary dementia”. I look at her in a newly 3-D rendering, no James Cameron necessary, and for one pleasant moment, think, this is one attractive girl; it might be nice to kiss her.

Lina calls The Farmacy. “Awww man, that SUCKS,” the budtender says. “Do you have any bananas?” The potassium in them, he explains, could help. The weed I smoked was “too stimulating”; my high could last all night. Oh, and put on some soothing music. “Just no Alice Cooper,” he warns. “Once, someone did that for me, and it freaked my shit out.” Lina remains dubious, but has me eat bananas and drink water. Meanwhile, I’m seeing colours I don’t recognise and I lack a sense of time or spatial depth.

One minute feels like four years.

And it’s getting worse, rapidly. “No it’s not,” Lina says. “Just relax, it’s slowing down.” Later, Lina will tell me that she was lying; my erratic personality changes were getting more frequent and were scaring her.

Six hours pass, and Lina calms me with trivia questions from a Seinfeld game. I get all the answers right.

By midnight, I’m drowsy, but only after I pop 0.5mg of clonazepam, an anti-anxiety pill that my neurologist prescribes for muscle twitches.

The next day, I awake feeling normally stoned.

I am “burnt” all day, as stoners say: sensitive to light, giggly, tired.

But I don’t experience pain or twitching or cramps, and my muscles feel like whipped cream cheese.

I tell Lina that I am “off pot for ever”, but I am already basking in what it feels like not to have to worry about my symptoms.

Maybe I will try weed again.

It’s 24 hours since my first puff of Sensi Star, after the scariest night of my life, about which I feel terribly guilty, but I’m already breaking my promise. “Maybe I didn’t buy the right kind,” I say. “Maybe I smoked way too much?”

“You are not trying that stuff again,” Lina says.

How can a drug work this way? How come we don’t know more about it? How can I learn about types and dosage?

Do I have to survive nights like this just to build up my tolerance so it eases my symptoms but doesn’t drive me batty?

Come February, I’m back from successful brain surgery the only experience that I might call scarier than My Highest Night. I’m currently on a break from experimenting with anything; normalising. The one thing I don’t forget, however, is how, for all of their psychoactive properties, the hospital’s extremely addictive and dangerous narcotics didn’t help my headaches or nerve pain. At home, painkillers and gabapentin, a popular neuropathy drug, are only mildly effective.

Recently, Californian activists won a chance to vote on legalising marijuana completely come November. This, after the city council had just approved a new law to limit LA’s dispensaries to 70, requiring hundreds to close, and creating “buffer zones” around schools.

The city hardly has the cash to raid each dispensary operating illegally. But it will probably threaten injunctions. The mayor, reticent on this issue for years, has signed on, too.

It’s a curious predicament: a massive amount of research and education remains necessary to persuade some people to think of pot in a constructive light.

But the economic benefits of taxing marijuana may actually drive voters to legalise the drug this autumn.

In the meantime, I’ve met a number of other LA residents using marijuana for legitimate medical reasons, operating happily and productively here in Opposite World. A 23-year-old multiple sclerosis patient studying to be a therapist offered me a compelling argument for marijuana reform: “This in-between state does not work,” she said. “Pot helps, but even though my neurologist wants me to use it, she wouldn’t officially recommend it. I try new kinds often, and take as little as possible, especially at work.” A 30-something composer for Hollywood movies who uses low dosages to stay pain-free agreed. “I’d hate to have to use a drug dealer,” he said. “And I don’t want chemicals in my body.”

Despite my oh-so-exciting adventures, I’m still interested in learning more about marijuana, especially if I can find a strain that helps and doesn’t induce ( any additional ) insanity.

Abrams recommends more CBD and less THC. “The THC is what’s psychoactive,” he says. “Cannabis has functioned as medicine for 2,700 years. It’s just the last 70 years that it has been considered something else.”

I just hope the new crackdown and potential legalisation keeps prices low and availability high. I already pay way too much for FDA-approved drugs one a branded version of an element from the periodic table that currently costs $200 a month.

Who knows?

Blending cutting-edge interventions surgery and neurologists with something old and legitimate might work. I’ll just have to make sure that in the future I ask more questions and stay well away from Alice Cooper.

Canada: Pot prohibition politely ignored for 420 Day

2010-04-21T07:58:44Z

It was a bit like Guy Lombardo counting down to the New Year.

Except instead of the stroke of midnight, it was 4:20 p.m. And instead of popping the cork on bottles of champagne, the reggae musician urged the Victoria Park crowd to "Get your bong ready and spark that (stuff) up!"

And then the crowd lit pipes and joints of marijuana.

And frankly, it was a lot calmer than any New Year's Eve party I've ever attended.

It was all part of 420 Day, an annual counter-culture celebration for marijuana enthusiasts around the world.

While more than 1,000 people gathered in Victoria Park for Tuesday's event, larger crowds were expected elsewhere, including a gathering at the Vancouver Art Gallery (at which former Londoner Marc Emery, still awaiting extradition to the U.S. for selling marijuana seeds online, was expected to speak), a 420 film festival in Calgary and a celebration in Niagara Falls at Hwy. 420 and Victoria Ave.

"It's just a very peaceful day," said 19-year-old Kalen Charles-Dunne. "You've got people of every kind . . . brought together by something as simple as a plant."

Earlier in the day, London Police Const. Amy Phillipo had said police would be monitoring the local event.

"People will be held responsible for their actions," she said. "We're not going to be turning a blind eye."

But a blind eye was precisely what was turned. At 4:20 p.m., three police officers strolled through the middle of the park while clouds of pot smoke billowed round them. Later, an officer said there'd been "no problems" and no charges had been laid.

Welcome to Canada's weird world of wacky tobacky, where pot is mainly illegal (except for some medical exemptions) but where many otherwise law-abiding Canadians have decided it's a law they'll politely ignore.

"It's a matter of freedom and civil rights," said a 48-year-old woman who identified herself as Rose Marie. "We don't want to be harassed because we choose weed over booze. As far as I'm concerned, booze causes a lot more problems."

Statistics show that about three million Canadians aged 15 or older - or about 12% of the population -- admitted having used cannabis at least once in 2002 (the year for which most recent figures are available). The Canadian Community Health Survey found 1.1% of Canadians used cannabis daily, 3.9% at least once a week and 6% at least once a month.

And just last week, an Angus Reid poll revealed 53% of Canadians support the legalization of marijuana.

"I don't take Tylenol or Advil, so if I have an ache or pain I'll blaze one," said Kroo Kidd, a 35 year-old environmental science student at UWO. "I can tap into myself better that way."

Why 420?

The origin of the expression is cloudy. It's been said to correspond to the number of active chemical compounds in marijuana, California police code for a pot bust, the birthdate of Bob Marley, the death of Adolf Hitler and even Bob Dylan's song Rainy Day Women No. 12 and 35, which is commonly known for its refrain, "Everybody must get stoned." (And in case you're wondering, 12 times 35 equals 420.) Recent consensus, however, links 420 (which is now observed every year on the 20th day of the fourth month) to the daily time (4:20 p.m.) that a group of high school students in San Rafael, Calif., routinely gathered to smoke pot during the early 1970s.

As the tokers were starting to depart Victoria Park at about 5 p.m., I noticed one young man yelling angrily.

He was upset, it turned out, that others had left their litter behind.

Four-year old finds Cannabis in second-hand Xbox 360 game

2010-04-18T14:25:03Z

A four-year old boy has become the latest to find a rather unexpected substance in a second hand copy of an Xbox 360 title.

Riley Brown had been particularly excited when his father Andy has purchased him a copy of Fight Night Round 4, reports The Sun newspaper today. However, upon opening the copy he was slightly perplexed as to what the contents of a small 2-inch by 3-inch bag was that had been hidden behind the instruction manual.

Andy, a thirty-year old Estate Agent from Littlehampton, West Sussex, said “He’d only been playing the game ten minutes when he came down with the bag in his hand and asked, ‘Daddy, what’s this?’ I checked and realised. I was horrified and took it off him straight away. But what if he’d thought it was sweets, and started munching away? It doesn’t bear thinking about.”

It is believed that the bag had contained a small amount of both cannabis and tobacco, presumably left in there by its former owner who had traded the copy in at their local Blockbuster store.

However upon complaining to the staff at Littlehampton’s Blockbuster, Andy had been a little annoyed at the response he got. “They didn’t seem too concerned and said they’d credit a free rental to my account,” he remarked. “But this isn’t a matter of a scratched CD or wrong disc, it’s serious. They should check all the boxes before they sell them.”

Country singer Willie Nelson reveals he regularly smokes dope

2010-04-17T23:16:50Z

Music legend Willie Nelson shocked US news veteran Larry King on his TV show when he admitted smoking cannabis – just before they went on air.

The country singer, 76, who is playing music festival Glastonbury in June, was talking about his smoking habits on CNN’s Larry King Live when the presenter asked him if he smoked it before going on stage.

Nelson, who wrote the country hit Crazy, said: “Sure… but I have a huge tolerance for it that maybe everyone doesn’t have.”

King then asked: “Did you smoke pot today?”

“Sure,” replied Nelson.

King, also 76, pointed and shouted in mock indignation: “So you have pot in you right now?”

“Yes,” said Nelson, before stretching out his arms as if to be handcuffed and joking: “You could arrest me!”

'Hemperor' Jack Herer Passes Away at 70

2010-04-16T11:14:48Z

One of the most prominent figures in the legalization community died today, 70 year-old Oregon resident Jack Herer, author of The Emperor Wears No Clothes and lifelong cannabis activist.

California NORML reports and Salem-News.com confirms Herer passed away this morning, after months of serious health complications from a massive heart attack in late 2009.

California NORML's Dale Geiringer said Herer was an idealistic, hard-headed pioneer with a voice louder than any P.A. system.

"Jack's big contribution was to raise awareness of hemp and the importance of hemp in American agriculture and industry before the mid 20th century. I saw an immediate impact when his book came out around 1990. I had just gotten involved in the marijuana movement and it was the height of the war on drugs. People would just avoid you like the plague. Then when Jack had his book come out, hemp suddenly became an environmental issue."

Herer's work in The Emperor Has No Clothes became canon to the new generation of activists. However, his later attempts to change various states' laws through the initiative process met with failure. He tried for years to get hemp initiatives on the different ballots, but they proved too radical for the time.

"He kept staying with his initiative and it always had problems. He was asking for a little bit more than the moon," says Gieringer. "It's ironic because he died the year full-scale legalization — I should say half-scale legalization is on the ballot. My recollection is Jack wasn't particularly enthusiastic about it."

According to Herer, The Emperor Wears No Clothes has sold 600,000 copies. Herer also had a strain of potent cannabis named after, called Jack Herer.

We'll miss you, brother.

Afghan farmers reap cannabis harvest worth £61m

2010-04-12T21:00:00Z

Afghanistan, already the world's top opium supplier, is now the world's biggest producer of cannabis, according to United Nations drug experts.

There is large-scale cultivation of the drug in half of the country, resulting in 3,500 tons of hashish worth an estimated £61m annually, according to the first assessment of cannabis in Afghanistan by the UN Office on Drugs and Crime. It warns that the threat from the drug needs to be dealt with to deny the Taliban the millions they make in protection taxes paid by farmers and drug smugglers.

The focus on opium has resulted in cannabis being overlooked, according to Antonio Maria Costa, executive director of UNODC. "A concentration of cultivation in the southern part of Afghanistan shows that the Taliban and those insurgents that control the southern parts of the country are not only funding themselves by trafficking opium but also by trafficking cannabis. It's the same area."

Sporadic government crackdowns have merely resulted in a shift in production to the south of the country, with most cannabis now grown in regions where the insurgency is at its strongest. There are close links with the heroin trade, with more than 67 per cent of cannabis farmers also growing opium, according to the report, which is based on a survey of more than 1,600 villages across the country. UN experts estimate that 60,000 households are now growing cannabis.

Although cheaper than opium, cannabis can potentially earn a farmer more because it yields twice the quantity of drug per hectare and is cheaper and less labour-intensive to cultivate. Farmers can earn £2,173 per hectare – more than the £1,304 they get from opium. But since cannabis has a short shelf life and is grown only in the summer, when there is less water available, they continue to cultivate opium as their main drug crop.

A British-backed paramilitary unit is hunting down Afghan drug lords as part of a new strategy against the drug trade. Four helicopters have already been provided by Britain for airborne assault missions by the Afghan Special Narcotics Force, with another two being made available to an Air Interdiction Unit this year. Targets are being drawn up by an Interagency Operations Co-ordination Centre in Kabul, led by officers from Britain's Serious Organised Crime Agency and the US Drug Enforcement Administration. But efforts are hampered by high levels of corruption and drug use among police, with 68 per cent testing positive for cannabis.

Slamming the Afghan government as "pretty rotten", Mr Costa added: "Corruption has been a major lubricant of the very prosperous drug industry... it's throughout the system."

2010-04-08T10:00:10Z

A Whitley pensioner who admitted producing cannabis plants has been ordered to carry out 80 hours of unpaid work.

Keith Bradbury, of Carousel Court, off Northumberland Avenue, appeared at Reading Crown Court on Wednesday, March 31, where he admitted one count of producing 63 plants.

The 66-year-old produced the plants in Shinfield on July 2.

He entered a guilty plea to the count at his first hearing in Reading Crown Court and was ordered to carry out the unpaid work as part of a year-long community order.

Sting angers anti-drug activists over marijuana campaign

2010-04-03T14:09:35Z

British musician Sting has angered anti-drug groups by adding his name to the campaign to legalise marijuana in America.

As politicians in many states, including California, consider legalising pot, celebrities have come out in support of the suggested legislation and Sting wants America to spend the money it uses in the war on the drug, on poverty and environmental issues instead, reported aceshowbiz.com

"The war on drugs has failed but it's worse than that. It is actively harming our society. People who genuinely need help can't get it. Neither can people who need medical marijuana to treat terrible diseases,” he said.

Sting is calling on fans to support activists at the Drug Policy Alliance (DPA) that campaign for those jailed for no violent drug offenses to be released from prison.

But his comments have upset anti-drug activists.

"Sting should stick to singing and not meddle in matters he doesn't understand. We do not need pop stars coming out and making irresponsible statements like that,” said a spokesperson for DARE, which teaches schoolchildren about the dangers of drug use.

California Dreaming of Cannabis Freedom

2010-03-29T10:11:13Z

California has moved a step closer to making cannabis legal after it was announced a vote is to be held on the issue.

Campaigners submitted almost 700,000 signatures on a petition to make the controversial topic eligible for a ballot in November.

The vote could pave the way for California to become the first US state to decriminalise the drug.

Approval would mean possession of 28.5g of cannabis, which is currently illegal and punishable by a $100 fine, would be legal for anyone over 21-years-old.

It would also be lawful to grow limited amounts of marijuana at home for personal use.

The California Secretary of State said campaigners, who needed 433,971 valid signatures for the ballot to go ahead, submitted a total of 694,248 verified through a random sampling.

Stephen Gutwillig, California director of the Drug Policy Alliance which launched the ballot campaign, said: "This is a watershed moment in the decades-long struggle to end marijuana prohibition in this country.

"Banning marijuana outright has been a disaster, fueling a massive, increasingly brutal underground economy, wasting billions in scarce law enforcement resources and making criminals out of countless law-abiding citizens."

In a recent survey in the state, more that 50% of Californians said they would support the legalisation of cannabis for social use and the taxation of sales proceeds.

US pollsters Gallup also found that 44% of Americans favored legalisation.

Supporters believe the California vote could be the first step in marijuana being legalised throughout the US.

Lobbyist John Lovell said: "This is the first step towards the ban's defeat."

But many Californians are strongly opposed to a change in the law.

Silas Miers, a spokesman for California Mothers Against Drunk Driving, said: "With legalisation of recreational marijuana use, impaired driving, fatalities, injuries and crashes will go up, and we don't want to see that."

GW Pharmaceuticals expects approval for MS drug derived from cannabis

2010-03-19T16:25:49Z

GW Pharmaceuticals, which makes drugs derived from cannabis, is due to have its first medicine on the market within months.

The British biotech company announced that regulators in the UK and Spain said that there were no quality, safety or efficacy issues with Sativex, its drug to treat spasticity in multiple sclerosis (MS).

Full approval is expected within three months. Sativex has been much delayed, but the news that it was finally close to approval sent GW’s shares up 15 per cent to 115p.

Sativex is the first prescription medication in the world to be derived directly from the cannabis plant. Marijuana plants grown at secret locations in the English countryside provide its main ingredient. It is an oral spray which works by acting on the same parts of the brain that respond to smoking cannabis. Sativex works by protecting against damage to nerve cells and restoring normal functions to nerve cells that are already damaged.

Its approval will trigger a payment of £10 million to the company by Bayer, the pharmaceutical company which co-owns the drug in the UK, and £2.5 million from the Spanish partner Almirall.

The company is still 22 per cent owned by its founders Geoffrey Guy and Brian Whittle, who also founded Phytopharm.

GW will be able to expand into other European countries quickly under the mutual recognition procedure, in which countries recognise drugs that have been approved elsewhere more quickly. The company hopes that recognition will be confirmed in the first half of next year.

Justin Gover, managing director of GW, said: “This will also allow us to start thinking about expanding into markets beyond Europe.”

Trials of Sativex to treat pain in cancer patients are taking place in the US.

Stefan Hamill, analyst at the stockbroker Execution Noble, said: “This is a watershed moment for GW where the intangible becomes tangible. The immediate benefit will be milestone payments and product royalties from launch, but the greater significance is validation of GW’s cannabinoid focused business model.”

Grandad jailed for growing cannabis

2010-02-24T09:35:32Z

A 62-year-old man who set up a cannabis factory in his home to clear gambling debts has been jailed.

Devoted grandad Joseph Tully was imprisoned for nine months yesterday at Bradford Crown Court after pleading guilty to possessing cannabis with intent to supply, being concerned in the production of cannabis and possessing amphetamines with intent to supply.

His wife, Lesley, 55, admitted permitting premises to be used for the production of cannabis.

Prosecutor Duncan Ritchie said police executed a search warrant last May at the defendants’ address in Fletcher Crescent, Rastrick, Brighouse.

More than 40 skunk cannabis plants, which were some weeks from maturity, were discovered growing in a bedroom and four smaller plants in a tent in another bedroom. The cannabis would have been worth in the region of £16,000 on the streets. Amphetamines with a street value of £2,000 were discovered in a freezer at the house.

Mr Tully told police his wife had no involvement and the drugs were his.

Miss Shazma Zaman, for Mr Tully, said he accepted what he did was wrong and had created the situation by accruing a gambling debt. His foolish actions had implicated his wife in the proceedings.

Miss Zaman said her client had numerous illnesses. He was a family man who played a pivotal role in his grandchildren’s lives and it would have a devastating effect on them. Giving Mrs Tully a conditional discharge for two years, the judge, Recorder David Kelly said: “ It wouldn’t have been easy to go to the police, as you should have done.

“That is what you did wrong. You did not consent to it, but you did permit it by not informing the authorities.”

Australia: Cannabis easier to buy than pizza, drug expert Dr Alex Wodak says

2010-02-18T15:51:40Z

CANNABIS is easier to buy than a pizza, says a drug expert, so why not legalise and tax it to benefit everyone?

Dr Alex Wodak, the director of the Alcohol and Drug Service at Sydney's St Vincent's Hospital, says cannabis will soon be Australia's smoke of choice.

"In a few years time, we'll have more Australians smoking cannabis than we have smoking tobacco and by default that market is largely taken over by criminals,'' Dr Wodak said.

"Having a black market of that size is not good for anybody and inevitably big black markets can only survive if there's significant police corruption.''

Dr Wodak delivered the keynote address at the Australian Drug Law and a Civil Society symposium at the Lismore campus of Southern Cross University today.

He also heads the Australian Drug Law Reform Foundation.

"At the moment, we have no control over cannabis at all because the trade is run by criminals,'' he said from Lismore.

"By taxing and regulating it, we would start to have some influence over the way people use cannabis.

"Overall, the aim should be to try and reduce the harm.''

Cannabis prohibition was expensive and ineffective, Dr Wodak said, with surveys showing up to 2.5 million Australians will smoke cannabis in 2010.

"It's easier for most Australians to purchase cannabis than to buy a pizza - it's a readily available substance,'' he said.

Dr Wodak said legalising cannabis and regulating it could be carried out similar to what happens in the alcohol and tobacco industries.

"We could have warning labels on packets, we could have age restrictions - we could also have help-seeking information if you're trying to cut down or stop,'' he said.

Dr Wodak said research had shown punishing people for possessing cannabis does not inhibit their desire to keep using the drug.

"We've proved that we've stimulated a huge black market for cannabis in Australia by prohibition,'' he said.

He quoted polls in the United States showing support for legalising cannabis had climbed from 12 per cent in 1969 to 44 per cent in 2009.

"I think the minute that politicians start to see that 51 per cent of the population is supporting the taxation and regulation of cannabis, they'll take 10 seconds to work out that's what they want too,'' Dr Wodak said.

He also expects a legal international trade in cannabis to develop one day, but acknowledged making cannabis a legal drug in Australia and overseas will happen incrementally.

Irish police raid cottage making cannabis poteen and biscuits

2010-02-02T15:59:14Z

Irish police have uncovered a 'cottage' industry in Mallow, Co Cork, which was manufacturing cannabis-infused poteen.

The enterprising entrepreneur was also growing cannabis plants and manufacturing a range of cannabis-flavoured biscuits and butter. The biscuits, known as Marrakesh Biscuits, are apparently very popular.

The rural cottage in the townland of Glantane near Mallow was the scene of the raid last week when local gardai called around unexpectedly and made the discovery of a still and 22 cannabis plants in an upstairs loft.

Locals in Mallow, which wags have now dubbed 'Mellow', were bemused by all the fuss. "You have to hand it to the distiller. He was out trying to create a bit of industry in these lean times. The stuff was being sold locally as Creme de Grass -- I didn't drink any of it, but I heard it had quite a strange effect on the auld head if you took a drop," said one local.

Detective Sergeant Paul Reidy led the raid, which also uncovered regular dry leaf marijuana of the smoking variety. All the items seized have been sent to Garda Headquarters for analysis, explained Sgt Reidy.

The search was carried out at a house in Glantane at 7.30am on January 23. Twenty-two cannabis plants and drugs cultivation paraphernalia were found, as well as other items such as cannabis alcohol and biscuits. It was a heady mix -- A cannabis plant is worth about €400.

A local man in his mid-40s was arrested at the scene and detained in Mallow garda station. He was subsequently released and a file was sent to the Director of Public Prosecution's office, a garda spokesperson said.

Cannabis cafes making ganja gourmet food

2009-12-18T22:27:55Z

A number of marijuana restaurants have sprung up after weed was decriminalised for medical use in some US states.

There’s even a TV show called Cannabis Planet showing viewers how to add pot to meals such as shrimp capellini and teriyaki chicken.

Many health-conscious patients say they would rather eat the drug than smoke it, and they would prefer to eat something other than sugary treats.

‘When I started using marijuana, I was eating a brownie every day. I gained a ton of weight,’ said Michael DeLao, a former hotel chef who hosts the Cannabis Planet TV show in Los Angeles.

‘Then I learned how to really cook with marijuana and once more people learn about all the possibilities, we’re going to see a lot more people wanting this in their food,’ he added.

In Denver, Colorado, a new medical marijuana eatery called Ganja Gourmet serves lasagna (LaGanja), Panama Red Pizza and an olive tapenade called ganjanade, along with sweets such as cheesecake, muffins and brownies.

All patrons must show a medical card that proves they have a doctor’s permission to use pot for some kind of ailment. ‘The food is really good,’ said customer Jamie Hillyer.

Chefs say it takes 20 minutes to two hours for the pot-laced meal to produce a high and, if patrons each too much, they feel sluggish. So, at Ganja Gourmet, customers are allowed to eat only one menu item every 45 minutes.

But the craze could be short-lived. Denver’s city council wants to ban marijuana being smoked or eaten in restaurants.
