Twas three weeks before Christmas and in the East Shore, the weed was wrapped nicely, a major drug score. The buyer was waiting but police knew a lot, and busted two men with a trunk full of pot.

The holiday jingle unfolded on Townsend Avenue Wednesday morning, when a cross-country, 100-pound marijuana shipment, broken down and wrapped to look like Christmas presents complete with bows, arrived at a well-kept Cape Cod house in the middle-class neighborhood near the East Haven line. Police were there, too.

Pa smo ga dobili. Ne, ne samo stadion, temveč tudi prvi slovenski dokumentarec o marihuani. Tak, ta prav, s statističnimi podatki in komentarji usteznih uradnih oseb. Toni Cahunek, ljudstvu poznan iz krogov Impro lige in športnega novinarstva, se je v okviru magistrske naloge odločil raziskati zeleno področje preprodajalcev, uživalcev in preganjalcev konoplje in posnel Poročilo: žbe.

The documentary film brimming with opinions of Slovenian and foreign experts, political decision-makers and cannabis users, contributes to the revival of the polemic regarding the position of cannabis in the Slovenian society. While a new action plan for the field of drugs and psychotropic substances is being devised by the Commission on Narcotic Drugs, the summary report might serve as the basis to form more realistic and more effective policies, although warning incessantly about cogent arguments that, even half a century after the first provisions on global prohibition were passed, still make cannabis also in Slovenia the core of the long-lost war against drugs. Recommended to anybody having a more liberal attitude towards using the prohibited substance

In Österreich gibt es immer noch viele Führerscheinämter (Bezirkshauptmannschaften, Verkehrsämter), die nicht wissen, dass gelegentlicher Cannabiskonsum ohne Zusammenhang mit dem Lenken von Fahrzeugen einen gültigen Führerschein in keiner Weise gefährden kann. Dazu zählen die BHs Vöcklabruck, Gmunden, Amstetten, Melk oder Jennersdorf genau so wie die Verkehrsämter Wien oder Graz.

The recent arrest of music legend Willie Nelson for marijuana possession by the US Border Patrol in Texas has sparked a new national political effort called The Teapot Party.

Rather than stay quiet about the 11/26/2010 bust, Willie sent an email to Steve Bloom of CelebStoner.com: “Let’s start a new party. There is the Tea Party. How about the Teapot Party? Our motto: ‘We lean a little to the left.’ Tax it, regulate it, legalize it. And stop the border wars over drugs. Why should the drug lords make all the money? Thousands of lives will be saved.”

A steady drizzle of rain dampened the atmosphere but spirits remained high in more ways than one at the seventh annual Emerald Cup north of Laytonville.
Marijuana aficionados talked shop, smoked marijuana and examined pot-related wares in a narrow canyon along Highway 101.

“It's kind of wonderful,” Jon Staples, of Petaluma, said, noting the openness of the event, a far cry from the days when growing and smoking marijuana were strictly covert operations.
