The Marijuana Cancer Cure Cult by: Bruce Mirken|AlterNet:

"In a world that made sense, this plant and the anticancer drugs it produced would have been rushed into further testing, and we'd have known in a few years whether they had potential as treatments for human cancers. Instead, research proceeded at a glacial pace, with almost no further progress till the 1990s. Since then, vast quantities of lab and animal data have confirmed those early findings, but studies of these plant compounds in actual human beings with cancer remain nearly nonexistent.

What got in the way was Nixon's other war, the "war on drugs." The plant in question was cannabis sativa -- marijuana -- public enemy number one in that other war, and discovering that marijuana had beneficial properties was the last thing the U.S. government wanted to do."

Has a Man's World... Become a Woman's Nation?

"Declaring America to be a woman's nation, while deliberately provocative, does not mean we are but just as surely it does mean we no longer live in a man's world."

Findings from a recent study, presented by Maria Shriver and the Center for American Progress (The Shriver Report) examines the effects of the growing number of women in our workforce, and explores the many angles of this evolution that we must all navigate. Expect this publication to spark a long, overdue national conversation. We must figure out how to save our sanity and our children, while adjusting to changes in our duties and responsibilities. Should we welcome the changes, or should we be holding on tighter to what was? Should we try to retain some better semblance of the traditional family?

is Linsanity for Real?

Try as I did to resist temptation to scribble anything of significance about one Jeremy Lin... How 'bout this kid huh? Averaging like 25, 10, 7 and 4 out the shoot. Seizing the moment. Taking New York City head-on and punching it in the face with excitement. KaBoom! Linsanity! Like it or not, it's on like Donky Kong and superLINtendo takin' no shorts.

All begs the pressing question:
Is this Harvard Grad fa real?
Well let's see. He got size, four years in college. He got speed, not lightening quick but deceptive. The Magic Johnson in him likes to make the creative play or pass (sometimes at a peril). He is humble, and always deflects attention from himself while crediting other players and coaching staff. He is tough; other teams are trying to bang him but so far he's absorbing it. He got continuous dribble, the ability to see AND make the right play. In a nutshell, he's proven smart, he's talented, humble and determined.

Now, everybody is waiting for the other shoe to drop. Can he sustain this pace physically? Is he really as creatively good and infectious as he's been so far? Will the fire he has burning from being rejected be doused by a certain amount of success? Well that's why we watch folks. NBA action ... Faaantastic!
I guess.

One thing's for sure. Commish David Stern is lovin it. His obsession with globalizing the NBA got a shot in the arm when Lin burst unto Broadway; or 7th Avenue, as it may be. The enthusiasm in China is palpable. Even Jeremy's 85 year old Grandma is being hounded by media hogs. After the tease and the doom that is Yao Ming, the Chinese appear even more excited about this prospect. Instead of a big awkward unexciting Ming who's english was touch and go early on (or so it seemed), Lin brings flash, and exuberance whether he wants to or not. He boasts an American Ivy League education and perfect American English. If you don't think all that is a big deal to the average Chinese citizen anywhere in the world, then please, log on!

Lin even has a deal going to buy the copyrights to the term "Linsanity". Apparently two people submitted requests before he did. Guess he was a little late getting to the patent office. He's been a bit busy, lighting up the big city, and pumping energy into a league that is recovering from an internal conflict.

JAKE'S
TAKE

Jake on: Fake Boobies
REALLY!? Are we gonna go there? Did this guy just ask me how i feel about fake.. ..urgh!! sorry, almost puked on ma new T-shirt. Shoulda known it was coming. He had to be the retar.. oops! Mom says I'm too young to know how to say that word. Dude! Even if there's milk, the supply-line is screwed. like a giant glob from outa space, sittin on the train-tracks. What am i supposa do wit dose, use em as a pillows? Next subject!? #Nerd. Tryna push my buttons.

Jake on: Ahmadinejad
Mahmoud would make an inter'estin toy. The jacket, the head, removable shoes, side armor, yeah! But? Could he really push d BiG button if he had one? I mean, he seems like d kinda guy who would have trouble wit button-fly jeans or my diaper flaps. Probably has some poor sucker ready to greet 70 virgins; wit d dubious distinction of "button guy". "Button Guy.. ha!", I just said that in Iranian, ..in my mind. ...Did too! ...You'll just, have to believe me. Speakin of virgins, I'm still a virgin. Hell, I'm still a BaBy.
Jake on: Romance Comedies

Grandpa says they should go back to calling them what they actually are, fairytales. I like movies that make me think and wonder—about the world and all its good and bad. Movies that make me think about the depth of man and woman, not watch them play-fight in underwear or find out how many ex-girlfriends one can apologize to before getting hitched. I like movies that send chills up and down my spine and make me come to grips with the evil within? Flicks that make me marvel at modern technology, science being pushed to the limit. Love stories are OK, if the corn isn't dry enough to choke

Jake on: Sex in America
Many of us here in the states believe that America has been sexually oppressed and most of Europe is way ahead of us, but who says a head should always be the first thing on our minds? What happens when absolutely all of the mystique and chivalry departs the act and even the young is no longer coy? If sex comes too easy, then there’s no sexy in it." Yup. Jakester memorized that too. It said somethin about the "permanent absence of romance", but the sweet sound of Anita reading english wit dat accent sent me off to lala land before I got halfway through a bottle.

Jake on: OIL
"Sometimes it seems like dose folks on TV can't figure out if it’s a bad thing or a worse thing. ..Drillin d earth for oil (like, all da time!). I guess it could be a good thing. I mean, what's all dat cruddy stuff doin gurglin down dere anyway? Maybe we should be sucking it out and burnin da “you know what” out of it? What if hell is right here on earth, and the oil—the eternal fuel!!… Naaaaa, sounds like a “Palin Theory”. Speaking of Palin, I wonder if she's in d market for a new baby? Her boobs aren't fake,.. and she always got milk!.. I hear.

Anyway, I figure, you geniuses out dere will flood my inbox wit geological, scientific stuff about da black gold stuff. Ga'head, educate the Jake, please.

Jake on: GUNS
Maybe there should be a shooting range in every town, where people can go to shoot inmates on death row. It seems like America's favorite way to relieve stress is to shoot as many people as possible. Jakester stay strappt.

Jake on: CHINA
Pop says that, with all the US debt the Chinese are taking on, we should be able to open a line of credit at YUM's Chinese Restaurant, and that Obama should stop bowing so damn low to Asian leaders, and that America starting to come across as a bunch of beggars.
