Should cannabis production be allowed in cities and in unincorporated towns？

Understanding this dynamic is important for local governments as they develop land use policies to govern when, where and how much cannabis production is permissible . Cannabis production’s effects on neighbors is an important point for local government officials to consider as they develop and adopt new policies to encourage the transition of black-market cannabis […]

There is a broader acceptance of cannabis in the mainstream media and among the public

Nevertheless, it would be erroneous to assume that acceptance of cannabis arose with the same intensity across California counties and cities.At the moment, only one-third of California cities permit the distribution, cultivation, testing, manufacturing, or sale of cannabis, while the rest have passed ordinances forbidding any cannabis-related economic activities within city borders. This project is […]

Several studies have analyzed cannabis use among pregnant and non-pregnant women

One other study has utilized results from TAG to predict cannabis involvement in an independent sample. Vink and colleagues used polygenic scores created by aggregating SNPs at varying p-value thresholds, up to p = 0.5, to predict tobacco, alcohol and cannabis phenotypes in an independent Dutch sample. Such an approach has the advantage of utilizing effects, […]

The minimum capital investment in testing equipment needed to satisfy regulations is substantial

To complement licensed testing lab data, we also drew on personal interviews, phone calls, and email exchanges with sales representatives of three large equipment suppliers. Table 3 summarizes capital costs, other one-time expenses, and annual operational and maintenance costs used in our calculations. We report average cost and standard deviation for each estimate. We assume […]

We hypothesized that cannabis exposures would increase significantly following each of these changes, especially among children

Marked increases in cannabis sales were reported by industry and business sources during the COVID-19 pandemic,1 and studies of cannabis users in the U.S.,2 the Netherlands,and Canada reported increased cannabis use during the pandemic. Content analyses of Twitter and other social media and online sources during the pandemic found increased discussion of cannabis as treatment […]

The SF extract of hemp seed effectively scavenged the DPPH and ABTS radicals than ethanol extract

Accordingly, the ethanol and SF extracts hemp seed appears to both scavenge the free radicals and also restore the expression of antioxidant enzymes. Hence, the expression of antioxidant enzymes activity by hemp seed is might be ascribed to the presence of bio-active metabolites. This study is the first report on the expression of antioxidant enzymes […]

Models for each sub-cortical structure are based on a training set of manually traced images

Voxel-wise statistics were corrected at the cluster-level using Threshold-Free Cluster Enhancement to a Family-Wise Error rate of p b 0.05, with 5000 permutations. Nevertheless, as a further control for heritability, we conducted follow-up analyses by randomly selecting one user from each family such that there were no siblings within the sub-sample, resulting in 272 marijuana users. Identical […]

The issue of marijuana legalization has been divided and debated across political stances

In recent years,however,the public health policy regarding marijuana legalization has been swiftly changing in the United States.As of April 2018,nine states – Alaska,California,Colorado,Maine,Massachusetts,Nevada,Oregon,Vermont,and Washington – and the District of Columbia have enacted laws to authorize the production,distribution,and possession of marijuana.A total of 29 states and DC have allowed medical use of marijuana for patients with approved health […]

Not only did the hemp knitted fabric keep the primacy in the heat transfer ability but also became the most conductive

Accordingly,a higher value of the coefficient indicates a larger surface area of the pores.Before the wear trial test,the surface area of open pores was the lowest for PAN knitted fabric,which can be easily observed visually in Fig.1.After the wear trial test,the stitch surface coefficient reduced for all the knitted fabrics,even for the PAN knit whose […]
