The 1969 Life article—known for its first use of the phrase “sex, drugs, and rock”—portrayed protesters as unconventional drug addicts whose life-style was “antithetical in almost every respect to that of conventional America.” The middle-class position of cannabis users affected cannabis laws by altering typical stereotypes about consumers and generating new arguments against the existing […]

The legalization of cannabis is a product of moral and political debates in contemporary America
A log-rank test was used to determine the significance of difference between two survival curves. All analyses were conducted using JMP staThistical softwar.Survivorship of adults reared from wild-caught larvae and pupae was examined in three different environments: indoor, plantation, and forest . Female mosquitoes placed indoors survived significantly longer than those in banana plantation and […]
Prevention of marijuana use for underage persons is an important public health goal
The AUMA initiative appropriately prohibits sales of marijuana to minors and prohibits anyone under the minimum age be allowed in any store that sells marijuana and marijuana products, including staff. This provision is stronger than regulations for retail alcohol stores, which explicitly allow underage people in convenience stores. However, AUMA fails to include other important provisions […]
The study focused on the safety of the drug combination and was quickly funded
NIH cannabinoid research support increased from $111.3 million for 285 projects in 2015 to $189 million for 408 projects in 2019, with more than a doubling of funds dedicated toward cannabis and cannabinoid therapeutics from 2015 to 2019, from $21 million to $46.5 million , about 0.5% of the overall NIH research budget. Of the […]
All regressions in this report will contain both county and year fixed effects
To discover an answer, we will look at medical marijuana, crime, arrest, unemployment, and mortality rates in California counties from 2005-2014. The arrest and mortality rates will be used specifically to examine the possibility of marijuana being a substitute drug. Today, there are approximately 572,762 medical marijuana patients in California, which is equivalent to 1.49% […]
A dairy cow takes two years to reach puberty with another nine months for gestation before she produces milk
Los Angeles was the first county to industrialize dairy production ; the number and size of milk cow herds expanded to supply the rapidly expanding demand for dairy products. By 1925, Los Angeles County was the leading producer of milk in the state, driven by population growth after World War I. The high cost of […]
These prior studies suggested that MI can improve MH treatment initiation in veterans
We included measures of employment indicating whether respondents were employed, temporarily unemployed or seeking work, or part of a residual category that included retirees, students, and stay-at-home spouses or partners. The study was approved as exempt by the UCSF institutional review board on July 16, 2016. The 2016 survey contained 3,058 respondents. Weighted probabilities of […]
It is important to highlight that the network traffic in these systems is typically nonuniform
The ECP also helps the missions of other agencies like the National Institutes of Health , National Science Foundation , National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration , and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. Such large-scale systems require interconnections between thousands of computing nodes. Traditional networks offer fixed links where optical fibers connect electronic packet switches […]
Crime and criminals are subjective, spatially delineated and historically contingent categories
They are not, nor ever have been, pre-determined or natural classifications. As laws, land use regulations, as well as national and local power relations shift, so do the definitions of crimes and criminals . Thus, remote sensing cannot detect crime as it might detect a stand of a certain tree species: crimes, their perpetrators and […]
Many arrestees who test positive for cannabis also test positive for alcohol or other drugs
These findings, while far from definitive, do not suggest a clear and direct link between cannabis use and crime. This makes it difficult for researchers to infer the extent to which a certain behaviors can be attributed to specific substances. Furthermore, because of the way that marijuana is metabolized by the human body, positive tests […]
