That publication is High Times, the marijuana magazine now celebrating its 30th anniversary. And the news is this: There's plenty of weed in the new liberated Iraq.

AUTOMATIC and unconditional welfare payments to people living in the Anangu Pitjantjatjara Lands must end to encourage young indigenous people to seek work, says the Lands' new co-ordinator. A straight-talking Bob Collins yesterday said confiscating and selling the vehicles of drug, alcohol and petrol smugglers was also needed to stamp out an "epidemic" of substance abuse. He said boredom and a lack of incentive to work or contribute to the community had led to a spiral of drug use, petrol sniffing, violence and suicide. "There is a major piece of public policy that's got to be addressed at the Commonwealth level," Mr Collins said. "If you want to give people a re…

NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- It was a case of being in the wrong pants at the wrong time. Kendrick Gibson, 26, was arrested by police Thursday after failing to surrender himself for booking on a misdemeanor citation for a suspended license charge. Authorities went to Gibson's residence to arrest him. With police inside his residence, Gibson began getting dressed, putting on a pair of blue jeans. He then suddenly took them off for another pair. The officers became suspicious and found plastic bags containing crack cocaine and a small amount of marijuana in the pockets of the first pair. Gibson also now faces charges of felony possession of crack for resale and misdemeanor m…

Medical cannabis users and advocates are lobbying city leaders to increase Berkeley's indoor marijuana plant limit from 10 to 72, which is the amount allowed in Oakland. Advocates say residents with cancer, AIDS, chronic pain, anorexia, glaucoma, migraine headaches and other severe illnesses need more than 10 indoor plants to cultivate marijuana for medical treatment. Berkeley allows 10 indoor and outdoor plants under a March 2001 ordinance that was brokered under political compromise. The Berkeley City Council will consider an increase proposal Tuesday. "It's not unreasonable to have 72 (plants)," said Mayor Tom Bates. "What people have told me is that this is w…

BOULDER, Colo. (AP) As police watched, hundreds of people gathered at the University of Colorado this week to smoke marijuana as part of an annual counterculture event organized by the Grateful Dead. A cloud of smoke wafted over Farrand Field just after 4:20 p.m. on Tuesday, April 20. The band organized the first 4/20 celebration in 1979 in San Jose, Calif., where "420" was the local police code for marijuana smoking. Freshman Adam Stroul said Boulder's 4/20 is "famous." "I probably heard about it four years ago," he said. "My buddy's older brother went here and told us about it." The Princeton Review, which named Colorado the nation's No. 1 party school in 2003, …
