During the 2012 presidential campaign, Mitt Romney caught criticism for his proposed California home with parking on an upper floor, requiring a car elevator. Much more elaborate elevator access will be available in the new Porsche Design Tower near Miami (opening in 2016 and already 80 percent sold out, according to a December report by Slate.com). The 132 oceanside units (in square footage from 4,300 to 17,000 and in price from $5.3 million to $32.5 million) include glass-walled, elevator-accessed spaces for two or four cars (for people who would rather admire their Bugattis and Maseratis than the Atlantic Ocean). Inexplicable

Equality Under Law: (1) In December, Fort Worth, Texas, judge Jean Boyd sentenced teenager Ethan Couch to probation with no jail time for drunkenly killing four people in a car crash -- apparently accepting Couch’s “defense” that his affluent, permissive childhood had taught him irresponsibility. (WFAA-TV turned up a 2012 case in which Judge Boyd sentenced a 14-year-old black kid to prison for punching another boy who then fell, bumped his head and died.) (2) New York City prostitute murderer Rasheen Everett got a 29-year sentence in December, despite his

Suspicion Confirmed

Tension over digital security is such that an alarming disclosure made in 2004 (and largely ignored) can resurface on a website in 2013 and appear even more astonishing. At the height of the Cold War in the 1960s (and largely because of Pentagon-White House contentiousness), “safeguards” were installed to prevent rogue generals from launching nuclear war on their own. What today would be a “PIN” number was assigned to each missile, but Strategic Air Command generals mocked the PINs by setting

each one to “00000000” -- a code that today would be ridiculed as naive. (Furthermore, “00000000” was then written out on each missile’s instructions, according to the former launch control officer who disclosed it in 2004.)

Many medical professionals are certain that Dr. Stanislaw Burzynski, 70, is a quack, treating cancer patients with expensive, FDA-unapproved substances, giving false hope to the terminally ill and in some cases diverting them from better-regarded treatments. However, according to a December USA Today investigation, Dr. Burzynski enjoys enthusiastic support from a small but dedicated group of patients, and neither regulators in Texas (where he is licensed) nor two juries (who turned back indictments against him) have been able to stop him. FDA regulators have been inconsistent toward him but appear to be gaining aggressiveness following recent inspections of his facilities. (Dr. Burzynski manufactures his own proprietary drugs, charging around $10,000 a month to patients who can pay.)

Australian performance artist Casey Jenkins admits that her signature engagement is “confining” and “slightly uncomfortable,” but that “Casting Off My Womb” is nonetheless an important work. Jenkins spends 28-day cycles knitting cloth from wool that has been inserted into her vagina -- symbolizing the creation of “life” emerging from the natural female cycle. The output, she said, records a female life

Police Report

From the Homer (Alaska) Tribune: On Nov. 11, police were called at 2 a.m. by Robert Tech, 47 (better known as “Turkey Joe”), who said he was assaulted by Charles Young, 61 (“known in town” as “Yukon Charlie”). Joe was talking too much, Charlie told officers, and he had to keep hitting Joe because he would not shut up. Joe, whom officers found inside the bus he has been living in, said he declined to fight back because “I’ve been a leader of men all my life.” Charlie was arrested.

One Rule Fits All: Jim Howe, father of two children at South Cumberland Elementary School in Crossville, Tenn., was handcuffed and briefly detained by a sheriff’s deputy in November after mistakenly believing that he could walk his kids home when class let out at 2 p.m. Actually, the school allows 2 p.m. departure only for kids being picked up in cars; pupils who leave on foot must wait until 2:35. (Howe assumed that the waiting period was only to protect young pedestrians from pickup traffic.) Deputy Avery Aytes said a rule is a rule and that if Howe failed to cooperate, he would be jailed.

South Africa, still transitioning to freedom after apartheid, has been slow to embrace the “performance art” that is a staple of American and European popular culture, but artist Anthea Moys is creating her own space, according to a December Wall Street Journal dispatch from Johannesburg. Recently she played an exhibition soccer game -- alone against an 11-player lineup. Her “team” quickly fell behind, but sympathetic spectators wandered onto the pitch to help her, and she managed to lose by only 12-0. Before that, she had entered a 60-mile bicycle race in Johannesburg and, dressed properly in helmet and Spandex, she mounted a stationary bike at the starting line and began pedaling furiously as the other cyclists took off. “I’m not very competitive,” she said. “I’m interested in the joy of games and how people view them.

IN THE KNOW

Cannabis & your Rights

By, NORML The following information is intended as a brief summation of your constitutional rights and is meant to offer helpful hints at how to effectively assert and protect those rights within the context of a police encounter. Of course, this information is no substitute for consultation with an experienced attorney. 1. Don’t Leave Contraband in Plain View Although law enforcement officers must obtain a warrant before they can conduct a privacy-invading search, any illicit material that can be plainly seen by any person from a non-intrusive vantage point is subject to confiscation. An arrest and a valid warrant to search the rest of the area is likely to ensue. A “roach” in the ashtray, a pipe or baggie on the coffee table, or a joint being smoked in public are common mistakes which all too-frequently lead to arrests. 2. Never Consent Many individuals arrested on marijuana charges could have avoided that arrest by exercising their Fourth Amendment rights. If a law enforcement officer asks for your permission to search, it is usually because: (1) there is not enough evidence to obtain a search warrant; or (2) the officer does not feel like going through the hassle of obtaining a warrant. Law enforcement officers are trained to intimidate people into consenting to searches. If you do consent, you waive your constitutional protection and the officers may search and seize items without further authorization. If officers find contraband, they will arrest you. If you do not consent to a

search, the officer must either release you or detain you and attempt to get a warrant. The fact that you refuse to consent does not give the officer grounds to obtain a warrant or further detain you. An officer can obtain a search warrant only from a judge or magistrate and only upon a showing of “probable cause.” Probable cause requires an officer to articulate information that would cause a reasonable person to believe that a crime has been or is being committed and that evidence of that involvement can be found within the object of the search. There are exceptions to the search warrant requirement which permit an officer to search an area without a warrant or consent under certain circumstances. The important thing for you to remember is never to consent to a search or talk with an officer if you want to preserve your rights. If an officer asks to search you or an area belonging to you or over which you are authorized to control, you should respond: “I do not consent to a search of my [person, baggage, purse, luggage, vehicle, house, blood, etc.] I do not consent to this contact and do not want to answer any questions. If I am not under arrest, I would like to go now (or be left alone).” 3. Don’t Answer Questions Without Your Attorney Present Whether arrested or not, you should always exercise the right to remain silent. Anything you say to law enforcement officers, reporters, cell mates, or even your friends can be used as evidence against you. You have the

right to have an attorney present during questioning. Your right to remain silent should always be exercised. 4. Determining if You Can Leave You may terminate an encounter with officers unless you are being detained under police custody or have been arrested. If you cannot tell whether you may leave, you can ask officers, “Am I under arrest or otherwise detained?” If the answer is, “No,” you may leave. An officer can temporarily detain you without arresting you if he has “reasonable suspicion” that you are involved in criminal activity. An officer must be able at a later time to articulate to a judge objective facts that would have caused a reasonable person to suspect that you were involved in criminal activity at the point that you were detained. Also, the officer may perform a “pat down” or “frisk” on you during the detention if he has reasonable suspicion that you are armed. However, an officer may only reach into your pockets if he pats something that feels like a weapon. When an officer attempts to contact or question you, you should politely say: “I do not consent to this contact and I do not want to an-

swer any questions. If I am not under arrest I would like to go now (or be left alone).” If arrested, you should again refuse a search of any kind and refuse to answer any questions. At this point you should insist on speaking to an attorney as soon as possible. 5. Do Not Be Hostile; Do Not Physically Resist There are times when individuals politely assert their rights and refuse to consent to a search but the officers nonetheless proceed to detain, search, or arrest them. In such cases, it is important not to physically resist. Rather, you should reassert your rights as outlined above in section 2. 6. Informing on Others The police and prosecutors often try to pressure individuals into providing information that would lead to the arrest and conviction of others. Threats and promises by police and prosecutors should be viewed with caution and skepticism. Decisions should only be made after consulting with an experienced criminal defense attorney and examining one’s own conscience.

EDIBLE REVIEW

Marijuana Smoking Edibles and Tinctures Cannabis dispensaries are increasingly offering a wide variety of edible goods made from marijuana, in addition to a growing assortment of cannabis concentrates and buds. With all these options, medical marijuana users face some real choices about how best to use cannabis to treat their medical conditions. Smoking Cannabis Inhaling cannabis smoke from a joint, pipe, or bong is a quick and effective way to introduce cannabinoids into the bloodstream and the associated cannabinoid receptors in the brain. The psychoactive effects known as the “high” are usually noticeable within one to three minutes and generally last for two and three hours. Many medical cannabis users prefer smoking cannabis because the effects are so quickly noticeable making the dosage relatively easy to gauge. Laboratory testing enables dispensaries to accurately determine marijuana potency and help provide dosing estimates to patients. Health Effects of Smoking Cannabis Unfortunately inhaling smoke is not the most healthy method of consuming cannabis. While there is still no conclusive correlation between the effects of smoking cannabis and an increased incidence of lung cancer, this is likely due, in part, to the difficulty in finding subjects with a history of long term cannabis use but no history of smoking tobacco. In September of 2011, the University of Colorado Cancer Center released a paper stating, “There is little direct evidence that THC or other cannabinoids are carcinogenic”. This means that THC on its own is not a cancer causing compound. The article goes on to state that, at least in rodent test subjects,

“cannabis smoke is carcinogenic”. In other words, the smoke from burning cannabis is carcinogenic, not the plant itself. While the debate over cannabis smoke and lung cancer is far from over, long term exposure to cannabis smoke is shown to accelerate the decline in pulmonary function. For some medical marijuana patients the increase in the quality of life associated with smoking cannabis is worth the long term risk of inhaling smoke. For others, especially those already experiencing throat and lung problems, cannabis smoke can cause irritation and exacerbate or complicate existing medical problems. Luckily there are other options available to those who choose to use medical cannabis but wish to avoid or decrease exposure to cannabis smoke. Hash, Kief and other Concentrates One simple method of decreasing the amount of inhaled smoke is to increase the potency of the product. Hashes, kiefs, and other cannabis derived concentrates allow medical cannabis users to smoke less plant material while still consuming high levels of cannabinoids. Though this still requires the inhalation of smoke, one “hit” of hash may be equivalent to 6 or more hits of cannabis

bud. Pros: Quick to take effect Relatively easy to judge dosage Predictable 2 to 3 hours of relief Cons: Inhalation of smoke, tar and carbon monoxide Short 2 to 3 hours high requires continued use throughout the day or night. Possible inhalation of mold spores Marijuana smoke odor draws attention and limits the places you can medicate Dangerous to travel with by car or air May result in inhalation of butane from lighters or chemicals from burning matches Vaporizing Cannabis Many medical cannabis users have begun vaporizing cannabis instead of smoking it. Vaporization, or volatilization, is a process in which the cannabinoids are released in gas form through the application of heat without combustion. Because the buds or concentrates are never burnt, vaporization produces none of the byproducts of combustion like carbon monoxide and tar. The released vapor is also much cooler than smoke, making it less damaging to lung and throat tissue.

An increasing number of medical marijuana users are finding the advantages of cannabis infused foods known as “edibles” to treat their medical conditions. Unlike smoking cannabis, edibles are introduced to the body through the gastrointestinal tract and processed by the liver before entering the blood steam The liver changes the cannabinoid THC into the more potent 11-hydroxy-THCwhich tends to have a stronger more sedative effect. This makes cannabis edibles especially suitable for patients with sleep disorders caused by pain or general insomnia. Patients ingesting cannabis will often feel the effects within 45 to 90 minutes with a high lasting between 6 to 10 hours. Edibles are generally sold as high calorie treats like cookies, candies and brownies made by infusing butter or cooking oil with cannabis. The cannabis infused butter is then added to a traditional recipe. Edibles made from marijuana leaf and bud often has a distinct taste and a green tinge from the plants chlorophyll. Edibles made from concentrates like hash oil often have a less noticeable taste and color. Medical marijuana users who prefer to keep the calorie count under control sometimes dip bread in marijuana butter or

EDIBLE REVIEW CONT.

Marijuana Smoking Edibles and Tinctures

Dosage One of the most common complaints with cannabis edibles is their often-unpredictable strength. Though one dose of an edible should contain about 20 mg of pure THC, the strength of an edible is determined by the quality and quantity of the marijuana used to create it. The slow onset of cannabis edibles can create even more confusion. Impatient users looking for relief from their symptoms often do not wait long enough and eat more before feeling the effects of the first dose. When in doubt, always start with a small dose and wait at least 90 minutes before eating more. To maintain a consistent dosage between batches, edibles should be made from a consistent source of laboratory-tested marijuana with known cannabinoid potency. Health Effects and Cannabis Edibles Because cannabis edibles are ingested instead of smoked, all of the harmful side affects associated with smoking are eliminated. Though some users have described feeling nauseous or groggy, and on rare occasions, vomiting. There is no known long term negative side affects from ingesting cannabis edibles.

Pros: None of the known health problems associated with smoking cannabis Can be consumed anywhere without being conspicuous Edibles are easy to travel with since law enforcement rarely thinks to look for edibles Longer lasting effects don’t require continued dosing throughout the day or

night Cons: May not be suitable for patients experiencing nausea or lack of appetite Edibles often contain large quantities of empty calories from sugar, fat, and other highly processed ingredients. Long lasting effect (6-10 hours) may not be suitable for every situation Edibles must be kept away from children or others who may unknowingly consume the cannabis. Patients must wait for up to an hour before relief from their symptoms. Slow onset can lead patients to eat more than is needed resulting in discomfort. Appropriate dosage is often unknown Cannabis Tinctures Cannabis infused tinctures became common in the 1840’s after Dr. Walter O’Shaughnessy, “On The Preparations of the Indian Hemp, or Gunjah”, published an article. By the late 1800’s almost every major pharmaceutical company was producing cannabis tinctures. While not as popular today, cannabis and offer a great alternative for medical marijuana patients. Tinctures are usually an alcohol-based solution of dissolved cannabinoids that can be taken as drops. If held under the tongue the drops are absorbed directly into the bloodstream and taken to the brain within minutes, much like smoking or vaporizing marijuana. Cannabis tinctures can also be added to food or drink so the liver can

process it in the same manner as eating cannabis edibles. THC is converted to 11-hydroxy-THC which takes more time to reach the brain, but delivers many more hours of relief. It may take a bit of experimenting to figure out the proper quantity for treating your symptoms. Start out with only one or two drops and wait for the effects before taking more. Because tinctures are made of high proof alcohol they will evaporate if left uncovered. As the percentage of alcohol to cannabis diminishes the potency of each drop will increase. Pros: Fast or slow onset depending on how it is taken No calories like edibles No throat and lung irritation from smoking Easy to measure doses once the required number of drops is known Easy to conceal and travel with Can be used anywhere with-

out notice Does not attract accidental use like edibles might Cons: May conflict with some patients beliefs as it contains some amount of alcohol Some consider the taste to be quite unpleasant Alcohol can evaporate, increasing the strength of the remaining tincture Dosage must be determined by gradual dosage increases until a desired dosage is determined There is nothing wrong with experimenting to find what form of cannabis works best for you. Likely you will find that a combination of methods is required to treat your symptoms. Many users find that smoking or vaporizing work best during the day and edibles work best at night before bed. However you take your medicine, be sure to get it from a safe and consistent source.

IN THE KNOW

Recognition of

Fathers Day

On July 19, 1910, the governor of the U.S. state of Washington proclaimed the nation’s first “Father’s Day.” However, it was not until 1972, 58 years after President Woodrow Wilson made Mother’s Day official, that the day became a nationwide holiday in the United States.

Mothers Day: Inspiration for Fathers Day The “Mother’s Day” we celebrate today has its origins in the peace-and-reconciliation campaigns of the post-Civil War era. During the 1860s, at the urging of activist Ann Reeves Jarvis, one divided West Virginia town celebrated “Mother’s Work Days” that brought together the mothers of Confederate and Union soldiers. In 1870, the activist Julia Ward Howe issued a “Mother’s Day Proclamation” calling on a “general congress of women” to “promote the alliance of the different nationalities, the ami-

cable settlement of international questions, [and] the great and general interests of peace.”

Did You Know? There are more than 70 million fathers in the United States. However, Mother’s Day did not become a commercial holiday until 1908, when–inspired by Jarvis’s daughter Anna, who wanted to honor her own mother by making Mother’s Day a national holiday–the John Wanamaker department store in Philadelphia sponsored a service dedicated to mothers in its auditorium. Thanks in large part to this association with retailers, who saw great potential for profit in the holiday, Mother’s Day caught on right away. In 1909, 45 states observed the day, and in 1914, President Woodrow Wilson approved a resolution that made the second Sunday in May a holiday in honor of “that tender, gentle army, the mothers of America.”

Recognition of

Fathers Day

ORIGINS OF FATHER’S DAY The campaign to celebrate the nation’s fathers did not meet with the same enthusiasm–perhaps because, as one florist explained, “fathers haven’t the same sentimental appeal that mothers have.” On July 5, 1908, a West Virginia church sponsored the nation’s first event explicitly in honor of fathers, a Sunday sermon in memory of the 362 men who had died in the previous December’s explosions at the Fairmont Coal Company mines in Monongah, but it was a one-time commemoration and not an annual holiday. The next year, a Spokane,Washington woman named Sonora Smart Dodd, one of six children raised by a widower, tried to establish an official equivalent to Mother’s Day for male parents. She went to local churches, the YMCA, shopkeepers and government officials to drum up support for her idea, and she was success-

ful: Washington State celebrated the nation’s first statewide Father’s Day on July 19, 1910. Slowly, the holiday spread. In 1916, President Wilson honored the day by using telegraph signals to unfurl a flag in Spokane when he pressed a button in Washington, D.C. In 1924, President Calvin Coolidge urged state governments to observe Father’s Day. However, many men continued to disdain the day. As one historian writes, they “scoffed at the holiday’s sentimental attempts to domesticate manliness with flowers and gift-giving, or they derided the proliferation of such holidays as a commercial gimmick to sell more products–often paid for by the father himself.” FATHER’S DAY: CONTROVERSY AND COMMERCIALISM During the 1920s and 1930s, a movement arose to scrap Mother’s Day and Father’s Day altogether in favor

of a single holiday, Parents’ Day. Every year on Mother’s Day, pro-Parents’ Day groups rallied in New York City’s Central Park–a public reminder, said Parents’ Day activist and radio performer Robert Spere, “that both parents should be loved and respected together.” Paradoxically, however, the Depression derailed this effort to combine and de-commercialize the holidays. Struggling retailers and advertisers redoubled their efforts to make Father’s Day a “second Christmas” for men, promoting goods such as neckties, hats, socks, pipes and tobacco, golf clubs and other sporting goods, and greeting cards. WhenWorld War II began, advertisers began to argue that celebrating Father’s Day was a way to honor American troops and support the war effort. By the end of the war, Father’s Day may not have been a federal holiday, but it was a national institution. In 1972, in the middle of

a hard-fought presidential reelection campaign, Richard Nixon signed a proclamation making Father’s Day a federal holiday at last. Today, economists estimate that Americans spend more than $1 billion each year on Father’s Day gifts. This is information from TheHistoryChannel.com
