  • CSE: TGIF | OTCQX: TGIFF | 1933Industries.Com DISCLAIMER STATEMENTS
    CSE: TGIF | OTCQX: TGIFF | 1933industries.com DISCLAIMER STATEMENTS This presentation relates to an entity that is directly involved in the United States cannabis industry insofar as its business activities include the cultivation, production, manufacturing and distribution of cannabis and cannabis-related products where use of cannabis is legal for medical and/or adult use purposes, as applicable. While some states in the United States have authorized the use and sale of cannabis, it remains illegal under federal law and the approach to enforcement of U.S. federal laws against cannabis is subject to change. Because the Company engages in cannabis-related activities in the United States, it assumes certain risks due to conflicting state and federal laws. The federal law relating to cannabis could be enforced at any time and this would put the Company at risk of being prosecuted and having its assets seized. For these reasons, the Company’s investments in the United States cannabis market may subject the Company to heightened scrutiny by regulators, stock exchanges, clearing agencies and other U.S. and Canadian authorities. There can be no assurance that this heightened scrutiny will not in turn lead to the imposition of certain restrictions on the issuer’s ability to operate in the United States or any other jurisdiction. There are a number of risks associated with the business of the Company. CSE: TGIF | OTCQX: TGIFF | 1933industries.com 2 3 COMPANY OVERVIEW Branded Goods Company Model: 1933 Industries is a consumer-packaged goods Controlling the Supply Chain company with a portfolio of authentic, premium brands in the cannabis industry.

  • High Times High Holiday Approaches!
    April 12, 2007 High Times High Holiday Approaches! The 411 On 420 NEW YORK, April 12 /PRNewswire/ -- April 20th has long been the High Holiday for marijuana smokers and this year will be no exception. As the concept of 4/20 spreads throughout the nation, more and more of the twenty- five million U.S. marijuana smokers are choosing April 20 to celebrate stoner culture or fight for marijuana law reform. Whether you want to change the world or simply chill out and enjoy a stoner friendly vibe, April 20, 2007 will have something for every smoker. High Times can help you put your coverage of the 420 phenomenon in context. 420 - A Brief History The term '420,' once shrouded in mystery, began as a code for marijuana among a group of students known as 'The Waldos' at San Rafael High School in Marin County, California. Throughout the 70s and 80s the term spread through the relentless touring phenomenon that was the Grateful Dead. All the while, The Waldos held small ceremonies on April 20th at Mt. Tam in Marin. When a flier urging participation in cannabis ceremonies on April 20th appeared at HIGH TIMES headquarters in 1990, the magazine began promoting the code. Since then 4:20pm has become the peak ceremonial moment for all HIGH TIMES events and April 20th has become the official cannabis holiday, recognized the world over as THE date to celebrate the sacred herb. To launch the 2007 festivities HIGH TIMES will hold a press conference at the magazine's Park Avenue headquarters at High Noon on April 18.

  • Let It Grow—The Open Market Solution to Marijuana Control Jon Gettman1* and Michael Kennedy2
    Gettman and Kennedy Harm Reduction Journal 2014, 11:32 http://www.harmreductionjournal.com/content/11/1/32 COMMENTARY Open Access Let it grow—the open market solution to marijuana control Jon Gettman1* and Michael Kennedy2 Abstract This commentary evaluates regulatory frameworks for the legalized production, sale, and use of marijuana. Specifically, we argue that the primary goal of legalization should be the elimination of the illicit trade in marijuana and that maximizing market participation through open markets and personal cultivation is the best approach to achieving this goal. This argument is based on the assertion that regulatory models based on a tightly controlled government market will fail because they replicate the fatal flaws of the prohibition model. This commentary argues that an examination of the reasons for prohibition’sfailure—to wit, the inability of government to control the production of marijuana— completely undercuts the basic premise of a tightly controlled market, which depends on the ability of the government to control production. The public interest would be better served by an effective regulatory framework which recognizes and takes advantage of competitive market forces. This analysis argues that reducing teenage access to marijuana requires the elimination of an overcapitalized illicit market. Further, it asserts that this goal and maximization of tax revenue from a legal marijuana market are mutually exclusive objectives. Keywords: Cannabis, Decriminalization, Drug traffic, Government policy, Drug legalization (United States), Drug control (economic aspects), Drug policy, Legalization markets, Marijuana, Regulation Commentary So, now that legalization is on the table, so to speak, Background what sort of legalization is best for the public interest? The This article presents the case for legalizing marijuana by answer is simple: the sort that works where the abandoned way of a wide-open commercial, competitive market policy of prohibition has failed.

  • Freeing Voices of Dissent in the Underground Newspaper Collection
    Laurie Charnigo Prisoners of Microfilm Freeing Voices of Dissent in the Underground Newspaper Collection “We are a people, and a people must have their own voice, and that voice is the underground press.”1 - Thomas King Forcade 1. Bad juju I put the finishing touch on the display case in the lobby of our library, a sign in bold newsprint: “Come Explore the UPS Underground Newspaper 41 Collection (1963-1975)!” Stepping back to admire my creation, I almost had to brace myself against the dizzying psychedelic collage of graphics. This display screamed not only “Look at me!” but “Damn! I’m cool!” And oh how cool it was covered with photos, comics, and covers from a wide range of colorful Vietnam-era ‘underground’ newspapers. The bright art of Black Panther’s Emory Douglas shouted “Power to the People!” Psychedelic covers of the San Francisco Oracle flashed Vedic Motifs, bearded gurus, and hookah- smoking shamans. Gilbert Sheldon’s Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers and Trina Robbins’ feminist superheroes playfully danced throughout the display. There were photos of protesters marching for civil rights, gay rights, women’s rights, and in opposition to the war in Vietnam. There were raised fists of solidarity, peace signs, concert posters, a real lava lamp (which I hoped wouldn’t burn the library down), and covers of the Berkeley Barb, Avatar, the Los Angeles Free Press, and many others. Books about the Vietnam-era underground press were featured prominently throughout the display, such as Ken Wachsberger’s extensive Voices from the Underground series and John McMillian’s Smoking Typewriters: The Sixties Underground Press and the Rise of Alternative Media Laurie Charnigo is education librarian at Jacksonsville State University in Alabama.
