Cannabis (Sub)Culture, the Subcultural Repository, and Networked Mediation
SIMULATED SESSIONS: CANNABIS (SUB)CULTURE, THE SUBCULTURAL REPOSITORY, AND NETWORKED MEDIATION Nathan J. Micinski A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS May 2014 Committee: Ellen Berry, Advisor Rob Sloane © 2014 Nathan Micinski All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Ellen Berry, Advisor Subcultural theory is traditionally rooted in notions of social deviance or resistance. The criteria for determining who or what qualifies as subcultures, and the most effective ways to study them, are based on these assumptions. This project seeks to address these traditional modes of studying subcultures and discover ways in which their modification may lead to new understandings and ways of studying subcultures in the contemporary moment. This will be done by suggesting a change in the criteria of examining subcultures from that of deviance or resistance to identification with a collection of images, symbols, rituals, and narratives. The importance of this distinction is the ability to utilize the insights that studying subcultures can offer while avoiding the faults inherent in speaking for or at a subculture rather than with or from it. Beyond addressing theoretical concerns, this thesis aims to apply notions of subcultural theory to study the online community of Reddit, in particular, a subset known as r/trees–a virtual repository for those images, symbols, rituals, and narratives of cannabis subculture. R/trees illustrates the life and vibrancy of a unique subcultural entity, which to this point has evaded a cultural studies analysis. To that end, this project advocates for the importance of the cultural studies approach to analyzing cannabis subculture and further, to insert the findings of this study into that gap in the literature. -

Surveying the area through a lens of geographic place and space, this research will look at the historical factors that led to the rise of a counterculture here. To contextualize this development, it is necessary to examine the development of a cosmopolitan neighborhood after World War II that was multicultural and bohemian into something culturally unique. -

It's Hip to Unzip Open Land Communes and Their Neighbours
“It’s Hip to Unzip”: Open Land Communes and Their Neighbours in Northern California, 1966-1979 by John Stuart Miller B.A., The University of British Columbia, 2013 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE AND POSTDOCTORAL STUDIES (History) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) December 2016 © John Stuart Miller, 2016 Abstract This essay considers the histories of two countercultural, back-to-the-land communes located in northern California: Siskiyou County’s Black Bear Ranch and Sonoma County’s Morning Star Ranch. Both of these communes were highly influenced by the concept of Open Land, according to which anyone may freely live in a given space, particularly those individuals rejected or alienated by urban modernity. I examine the ways in which these communes related to and were shaped by their rural neighbours, as well as the local state, asserting the importance of the surrounding community in effecting events at each commune. I argue that positive relations with neighbours determined the continued viability of these communes, and that these positive relations in turn required a compromise of original founding principles including Open Land. I further uncover the changing perceptions rural people held of hippie communards, and contextualize the back-to-the-land ideal within broader American traditions of frontier settlement and reinvention. !ii Preface This thesis is entirely the original, unpublished, and independent work of the author, John -

These partial control districts would give the Historic District Landmarks Commission (HDLC) jurisdiction over demolition. Additionally, it would give the HDLC full control jurisdiction over all architectural elements visible from the public right-of-way for properties along Saint Charles Avenue between Jena Street and South Carrollton Avenue, and over properties along South Carrollton Avenue between the Mississippi River and Earhart Boulevard. Recommendation: The City Planning Commission staff recommends approval of the Carrollton and Uptown Local Historic Districts as proposed by the Study Committee.

Transitioning from Medical to Recreational WHAT CANNABIS RETAILERS NEED to KNOW CONTENTS
Transitioning from Medical to Recreational WHAT CANNABIS RETAILERS NEED TO KNOW CONTENTS Transitioning from Medical to Recreational 5 Understanding Seed-to-Sale Tracking 10 How to be successful in the new recreational landscape 15 2 Recreational cannabis has taken the country by storm. In just a few years, it’s gone from being an illicit substance to a recreational one, sold and regulated in a similar way to alcohol. It’s now legal to sell flower, edibles, and other cannabis products for recreational use in Alaska, Colorado, Nevada, Oregon, and Washington. Soon, recreational markets will open in California, Massachusetts, Maine, and other states. Transitioning from a medical retailer to a recreational retailer presents an attractive business opportunity because of the significant increase in new customers – and revenue. Unfortunately, this isn’t a straightforward transition… CANNABIS LEGALIZATION STATUS • It can be challenging and expensive to obtain a recreational license. Medical cannabis broadly legalized • There are ever-changing regulations Cannabis legalized for recreational use you must comply with. No broad laws legalizing cannabis • And there are expenses you didn’t have to consider before. as of August 2017 At Green Bits, we’ve seen this transition happen in Alaska, Colorado, Nevada, and Oregon. We’ve been on the frontlines and helped hundreds of customers make the transition from medical to recreational. For this eBook, we talked to a host of store owners and managers who have been through the transition. We’ve learned how tough the transition can be, and which changes you’re likely to see. We’re here to prepare you as your state undergoes a market transition that will change how cannabis is bought and sold forever. -
The Myth of Medical Marijuana
DRUG FREE AUSTRALIA The ACT Medical Cannabis Conundrum Why legislate an inferior product? 1. The Greens Bill is premised on an ignorance of the currently legal status of medical cannabis 2. The Greens ‘medical’ Bill has not been requested by the medical establishment 3. The Greens Bill ignores 74% of addicted teens in Colorado sourcing cannabis from medical marijuana patients 4. The Greens Bill does not recognise that it is legislating trafficable quantities of cannabis 5. The Greens Bill, perhaps unwittingly, aligns with drug legalisation strategies worldwide 6. The Greens Bill ignores the heavily evidenced harms of crude cannabis to users and their community 7. The Greens Bill will proliferate recreational cannabis use, which most Australians condemn Central Issues & Compiled Evidence DRUG FREE AUSTRALIA Executive Summary - Seven Central Issues for ACT Legislators 1. The Greens Bill is premised on an ignorance of the currently legal status of medical cannabis ‘Medical Marijuana’, (which is a misnomer) has been legally used in Australia since the mid-1990s, when the THC capsule developed in the US called Marinol was imported into Australia under TGA Special Access for 100 patients. Marinol can be imported today under the same arrangement. Alternatively, the whole-leaf extract of cannabis, called Sativex, was approved by the Australian TGA in 2012 for MS spasticity. Both medications are pharmaceutically standardised in terms of dosage, strength and purity, which crude cannabis products are not. Both medications can be used for maladies where clinical trials have previously shown promise – nausea, AIDS wasting, chronic pain and MS spasticity. A third pharmaceutical medicine which is high in CBD, Epidiolex, is currently being tested in the US and could be tested here under similar arrangements – CBD is the element within cannabis believed to be responsible for the relief of severe seizures in epilepsy-like syndromes for some sufferers, including children. -
