This story once again demonstrates the reasons for the birth of apathy, why trying to co-ordinate any system with flawed objects is always doomed to chaos or as I have frequently quoted before from A Einstein “There are two fundamental infinities, the first the size of the universe and second being human stupidity and I’m not sure about the first.” Also very funny K . .

However they are currently suing the WordPerfect organ…

Controversy over medicinal marijuana has reached the eighth grade in Belmont, where a middle school principal has refused to let a student display her project on the possible medical benefits of pot. Ralston Intermediate School Principal Deborah Ferguson told 13-year-old Veronica Mouser last week she was barring her project -- called ``Mary Jane for Pain'' -- from the school science fair opening today.

Veronica burst into sobs and called her stepfather from the nearest phone. Now the emboldened teen, who loves debating and wants to be …

Burning the Bush for Sickle Cell by Peter Gorman For nearly 20 years, South Central L.A.’s Sister Somayah Kambui, a former member of both the US Air Force and the Black Panther Party, has been trying to educate the public about sickle-cell anemia. Not just the disease, but how smoking pot can alleviate the pain it causes and how eating hempseed oil can help alleviate its symptoms. Sickle-cell anemia, an inherited red-blood-cell disorder, affects at least 75,000 Americans, and an estimated 2 million more carry the gene for it. However, it rarely affects anyone without African ancestry, and has remained largely unknown to most of the US public. The disease causes n…
