| The Soilent Green Files:: Cannabis Use Does NOT Decrease Lung Function
According to a story published by the Marijuana Policy Project, the American Medical Association conducted a long-term study over 20 year's time to determine if pot use causes lung damage. The results determined that occasional marijuana smoking (defined as 2-3 times per month) did not reduce lung function and in some cases smokers actually showed lung function improvement.

| Medical Marijuana Laws in Illinois |
|
| November 9, 2011, vector |
| Medical Marijuana is legal in 14 states. Illinois could be the next progressive state to help sick and suffering people if the state officials and policy-makers stop waiting around for something to happen and take a stand and come up with a plan that will allow physicians and doctors to help people. In the meantime medical marijuana will continue to be legal...just on paper, though.

| Missouri Marijuana Legalization Initiatives File |
|
| July 9, 2011, vector |
| Twin initiatives that would regulate marijuana sales and production and legalize the possession of pot by adults were filed with the state Secretary of State's office Wednesday. The initiatives were filed by a new coalition called Show-Me Cannabis.
One of the initiatives would amend the state constitution; the other would revise state statutes. The Secretary of State's office has a month to approve their language. Once one or both are approved, signature gathering aimed at putting the initiative on the November 2012 ballot could get underway. |
| Phytocanabinoids - THC and other marijuana chemicals |
|
| May 6, 2011, vector |
| Our bodies make a variety of marijuana-like chemicals called "endocannabinoids" that activate many brain, pain receptor, and other endocannabinoid receptors distributed throughout the tissues and organs of our bodies. As you would expect, the activation of these endocannabinoid receptors affects and regulates the chemical processes of our bodies-pain, inflammation, immune response, cardiovascular function, gastrointestinal function, etc. |

| May 1, 2011, vector |
| The San Jose City website states the new decision on the 10 club limit passed by a
6-5 vote. In the May/June time-frame, the process will be reviewed with a decision
released sometime in August on how to apply to be one of the chosen 10. The website
specifically says to not come down to city hall and line up but to check back on the
website for updates. The guidelines state that no more than 2 clubs can operate per
district with supplies only available from on-site grow operations. |
