  • Medical Marijuana, Illicit Marijuana and Mr. C
    Medical Marijuana, Illicit Marijuana and Mr. C In late 2013, word came out that New York State was looking into legalizing medical marijuana for treatment of certain serious symptoms that arise from certain serious medical conditions. Among the symptoms and medical conditions to be included were muscle spasms in multiple sclerosis patients. Since multiple sclerosis is my specialty, both professionally and personally, I decided to write this article to help educate people about medical marijuana. I. My Experience with Marijuana as a Street Drug Until sometime in the recent past, I had had minimal experience with the world of marijuana. I know I had smelled something weird at several concerts that I went to when I was in college. My friends told me that it wasn’t marijuana but rather “herb cigarettes.” They told me that they were sold in a store in CollegeTown by a Ms. Jayne. One time, my friend asked if I could drive him to CollegeTown so he could get more “herb cigarettes.” When we got there, my friend told me that he would go purchase them and that I should wait in the car. I thought “whatever” because I knew smoking was bad for you regardless of what you smoked and I didn’t like the smell anyway. When he got out of the car, he went into a place that didn’t look so much like a store, but more like an alleyway that had several crates stacked up high so you couldn’t really see it from the street. I remember thinking that Ms.

EDRS PRICE MF-$0.65 HC-$9.87 DESCRIPTORS Community Action; *Curriculum Guides; *Drug Abuse; *Health Education; *Instructional Materials; Reference Materials ABSTRACT This K-12 sequential curricular program in drug prevention was developed by teachers in six participating countiesin Florida, as a result of the Drug Abuse Education Act passedby the Florida Legislature making such education mandatory in the public schools (K-12) beginning in the 1971-72 schoolyear. This program is based upon the creation of behavior involving the realmsof cognitive, affective, and normative domains, which is hoped will result in the individual's abstinence from theuse of drugs. The program was not written by "experts" in the field of drugs and narcotics nor by a professional writer, but by experiencedclassroom teachers. It was developed as an initial step in devisinga curriculum program and is also offered as a basis fora community action program. Generally, it is written in outline style and organized according to three areas: content, suggestedstudent activities, and resources and materials. Extensive appendixes include a list of slang terms, films, sources, a student dialogue on theuse and abuse of drugs, supplementary materials, directory of health services and agencies, school policies, Florida statutes,etc. A bibliography of books, journals and pamphlets

  • “Budding” Cannabis Cottage-Industry Has Set the Stage for an Impending Public Health Crisis Gauvin DV* Neurobehavioral Sciences, MPI Research, Mattawan, MI 49071, USA
    ulatory A eg ffa R i l rs a : c i O t p Gauvin, Pharmaceut Reg Affairs 2018, 7:1 u Pharmaceutical Regulatory Affairs: e e n c A a DOI: 10.4172/2167-7689.1000199 c m c r e ISSN:a 2167-7689 s h s P Open Access Review Article Open Access A“Budding” Cannabis Cottage-Industry has set the stage for an Impending Public Health Crisis Gauvin DV* Neurobehavioral Sciences, MPI Research, Mattawan, MI 49071, USA Abstract There is only one legally-competent authority in the United States (US) that can determine what is and what isn’t medicine – the Food & Drug Administration. In 2018, under US and International statutes, marijuana is not medicine. Individual states have approved the cultivation, sale, and distribution of a Schedule I controlled substance in direct violation of International and U.S. drug control statutes. The current administration of the US allows the daily violation and nullification of 3 International United Nation treaties as well as the US Comprehensive Drug Abuse and Control Act (1970). In a search for nirvana, a growing subculture has emerged that has taken the hallucinogen, Δ9- tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), of the 1960s to “infinity and beyond”. Techniques to “boost” or potentiate the actual THC content of marijuana by agricultural refinement, fertilization, and hybrid cultivation of “home grown” or medical advocate suppliers for the “medicinal marijuana” market has dramatically changed the subjective experience of smoked product. More disturbing is the intentional adulteration of bulk harvested materials (spicing), the development of “kitchen-based” extraction techniques (dabbing), and the processes of dose administrations that have grown almost exponentially over the last decade that sets the stage for a new chimera to drug safety in the US.

    m a p s • v o l u m e X I I n u m b e r 1 • s e x , s p i r i t , a n d p s y c h e d e l i c s 2 0 0 2 1 Sex, Spirit, and Psychedelics, the theme of this special issue of the MAPS Bulletin, is the second in a series edited by Jon Hanna and Sylvia Thyssen, the first being the “Psychedelics and Creativity” issue. These issues are a departure from most MAPS Bulletins, which primarily include articles related to MAPS’ core mission to develop the medical uses of psychedelics and marijuana. The theme issues enable MAPS to expand the scope of its educational activities to include discussions about the risks and benefits of a wider range of uses, including spirituality, creativity, sexuality, and celebration. MAPS offers this issue as a contribution to the cultural debate over whether legal contexts for the use of psychedelics and marijuana should be limited to medical and scientific applications, or perhaps also include other potentially beneficial uses. The connection between psychedelics and spirituality is thousands of years old. It’s also as current as the on-going litigation between the Drug Enforcement Administra- tion (DEA) and representatives of the US branches of two Brazilian Christian/syncretic religions, whose sacramen- tal use of ayahuasca tea is legal in Brazil and elsewhere but is still prohibited in the United States by the DEA. The connection between psychedelics and sexuality also extends back into recorded history—apparent in the cross-cultural quest to enhance sexual desire and performance through the ingestion of aphrodisiacs, some with psychoactive properties.
