The SMH published this bit of bent news today: This article is only half true. Dr Arnold fails to note the fact that the body does not store actual d9-THC in body fat. Only THC metabolites are stored in body fats. THC metabolites are NOT psychoactive. Even if Arnold's assertion is true (and it probably is) that physical exercise or food deprivation causing the body to draw on stored fat for energy causes THC metabolites present in fat to be released into the bloodstream, the subject will not become re-intoxicated. To assert so, as Arnold does here: is so silly that it makes me wonder if Arnold has enjoyed a spliff over the weekend and had spent Monday morning…

REBEKAH CAVANAGH August 14th, 2009 http://www.ntnews.com.au/article/2009/08/1...261_ntnews.html POLICE say drug dealers are continuing to exploit residents in remote Territory communities by charging them up to $100 for a bag of cannabis no bigger than the size of a 10 cent coin. Superintendent Helen Braam said it is just another example of the ongoing exploitation of remote Territorians. "The alternative for a remote community family is spending $100 on letting their kids go to the show, buying them a new bike for their birthday or sending them on a school excursion - something most urban kids take for granted, and whose parents are not being extorted becau…

Immigration Department spokesman Sandi Logan said the recreational room had not been used by either detainees or staff for quite some time. It was not yet known whether staff or detainees had cultivated t…

09:30 AEST, 6 August 2009 By Henri Paget, ninemsn Australians are experimenting with an illegal synthetic form of marijuana that does not show up on standard drug tests and is passing under the noses of customs officials. The drug, commonly known by the brand name Spice, is being ordered from overseas and packaged to look like a mixture of common incense herbs. But it is laced with a potent illegal chemical that produces a strikingly similar effect to marijuana when smoked. An office worker in Australia's mining industry told ninemsn he had ordered the drug online from Europe on two occasions, and received it both times. "It was sent in an urgent document d…

"Would you believe it? One of the reasons marijuana is illegal today is because cotton growers in the 30s lobbied against hemp farmers - they saw it as competition. Industrial hemp is not chemically addictive as is nicotine, alcohol, or caffiene." Gympie Times Saturday 18th July, 2009 Page 2 Author unknown editorial@gympietimes.com (It may not be much and flawed, but great to see some positive media information, very strange to find in the paper I thought)

From the West Australian on Saturday, there was a follow up today but I'll have to type that manually I think as I can't find it on their dumb-ass site. Author: LEE RONDGANGER and RONAN O’CONNELL Date: 11/7/2009 Source: The West Australian Saturday 11th July 2009 Copyright: "West Australian Newspapers Limited 2008" (I think?) This shit makes me mad. They are effectively searching people at random at a train station without consent or reasonable cause. And all that effort for a few "hits" by the dogs, and then subsequent searches which showed nothing. DAMN YOU STUPID ASS LIBERAL/NATIONAL GOVERNMENT! *pant, pant*
