Patients To Converge On Washington DC To Lobby For Medical Marijuana, Honor Cheryl MillerAugust 28, 2003 - Washington, DC, USAWashington, DC: Patients and their caregivers will converge on Washington, DC on September 22 and 23 to lobby for legal access to medicinal marijuana and pay tribute to Cheryl Miller. Miller was a longtime medicinal marijuana activist and MS patient. She died from pneumonia and other MS-related complications on June 7, 2003.
In honor of Cheryl's dedication and struggle, NORML and several other prominent drug law reform groups will be holding a two-day medical marijuana lobbying effort on Capitol Hill. Scheduled activities include: a candlelight vigil in front of the Supreme Court, a press conference on Capitol Hill, and a patient-lobby day to raise awareness in Congress of the need for medical marijuana and the passage of House Bill 2233, the "States' Rights to Medical Marijuana Act.""Throughout much of her life, Cheryl risked arrest and jail to use the only medication that alleviated her suffering," said her husband Jim Miller, who is organizing the project. "Cheryl chose to take this risk, though many other patients are simply forced to suffer. I hope that by bringing attention to the plight of my late wife Cheryl, I can hasten the day when marijuana will be made available so that others are no longer needlessly forced to suffer with pain or risk arrest."For more information on or to donate to The Cheryl Miller Memorial Project, please visit: http://www.cheryldcmemorial.org or contact Chris Mulligan of NORML at (202) 483-5500.DL: http://norml.org/index.cfm?Group_ID=5737Wisconsin Marijuana Activists To Travel To D.C.http://cannabisnews.com/news/thread17106.shtmlMS Society Demands UK Regulators Make "Quick Decision" Regarding Use Of Marijuana For Multiple SclerosisAugust 28, 2003 - London, United Kingdom"In the meantime, we urge the courts to deal sympathetically with people with MS who are charged with cannabis use when seeking relief from their symptoms," Group Says.London, United Kingdom: The British Multiple Sclerosis Society has urged the National Institute of Clinical Excellence (NICE) to make a "quick decision" regarding the legalization of cannabis-based drugs for patients with MS and other ailments. NICE is currently evaluating the safety and efficacy of synthetic THC (marketed in the United States as Marinol) as well as a variety of sublingual marijuana extracts developed by the GW Pharmaceutical company. NICE is a regulatory agency that advises the National Health Service (NHS) on new medical treatments and issues guidelines to doctors."We are aware that some people with MS are already benefiting from the use of cannabis, but by being forced to engage in illegal activity are experiencing great distress and fear," the MS Society stated in a formal submission to NICE. "Offering cannabinoid-based treatment via the NHS will provide a much valued opportunity to use the drug in a safe and trusted environment."According to a 2002 survey of British MS patients, 43 percent said they used cannabis therapeutically to alleviate symptoms of the disease. Most recently, a study published in the journal Clinical Rehabilitation reported that marijuana extracts alleviated pain and other neurogenic symptoms in patients suffering from MS and spinal cord injury who were unresponsive to standard therapy.Britain's Medicines Control Agency (MCA) is currently reviewing clinical trail data from GW Pharmaceuticals on the efficacy of cannabis extracts on MS related pain, spasticity and bladder control. The MCA is expected to make a decision regarding the regulation of cannabis extracts later this year."In the meantime, we urge the courts to deal sympathetically with people with MS who are charged with cannabis use when seeking relief from their symptoms," the MS Society advised.For more information, please contact either Allen St. Pierre or Paul Armentano of the NORML Foundation at (202) 483-8751.

More than 580 Canadians are currently qualified to use and possess medical marijuana under federal law.The agency is charging approximately $100 per ounce for the government-grown pot, which averages about 10 percent THC.Health Canada signed a contract three years ago with a private firm in Manitoba to grow cannabis for medicinal and research purposes, but this week marked the first time the agency had ever made any of its supply publicly available. The agency's decision came only after an Ontario judge in January ordered Health Canada to make pot medically available to authorized patients. The court determined that the agency's existing medical marijuana regulations were unconstitutional because they failed to offer qualified patients access to a legal source of medicinal cannabis. Health Canada is appealing that decision and may stop selling medical marijuana if the ruling is overturned.Under the existing plan, patients must pick up their marijuana at the office of their physician rather than at a pharmacy. Many doctors have objected to this aspect of the program, arguing that Health Canada is using doctors as "intermediaries" to deliver the drug. As a result, only a handful of the nearly 600 patients with federal approval to use medical marijuana have filed the necessary paperwork to buy Health Canada's medical-grade pot.For more information, please contact either Allen St. Pierre or Paul Armentano of the NORML Foundation at (202) 483-8751.DL: http://www.norml.org/index.cfm?Group_ID=5736Medical User Gets His Weedhttp://cannabisnews.com/news/thread17165.shtmlCanada Patients Get Government Marijuanahttp://cannabisnews.com/news/thread17161.shtmlToronto Man Expresses Relief as He Picks Up Pothttp://cannabisnews.com/news/thread17160.shtmlToronto Man Picks Up Medicinal Pot from Doctorhttp://cannabisnews.com/news/thread17157.shtml Source: NORML Foundation (DC)Published: August 28, 2003Copyright: 2003 NORML Contact: norml norml.org Website: http://www.norml.org/NORML's Weekly News Bulletin -- August 21, 2003http://cannabisnews.com/news/thread17127.shtmlNORML's Weekly News Bulletin -- August 13, 2003http://cannabisnews.com/news/thread17066.shtmlNORML's Weekly News Bulletin -- August 07, 2003 http://cannabisnews.com/news/thread17017.shtml

Drug Policy Alliance memo
Friends and Supporters:The war on drugs is a grievous attack on our civil liberties......and things are about to get worse. Yes, there have been successes. We've pushed senators to debate the RAVE Act on the floor, we've forced a medical marijuana vote in the House and we've got more support than ever before. Nevertheless, Congress and the Bush Administration are now conspiring against the Bill Of Rights with new legislation that threatens our right to assemble and erodes protections against search and seizure. We have received reports that police are using the RAVE Act to pressure promoters into canceling festivals and events. Unbelievably, the first event targeted by the law was a political fundraiser in Montana. Taxpayer dollars have already been used on an expensive ad campaign calling marijuana users terrorists. Now, in an even bigger grab for control, Senators are working on a controversial bill that could punish nonviolent drug offenders as terrorists. We can't afford any illusions. If the war on terrorism is as unsuccessful as the failed war on drugs, we're all in big trouble. Read on for some important updates and actions you can take on Rave Act II (including a September 6th protest in DC), a new "drugs and terrorism" bill, Drug Czar John Walters secretive tour around the country and the growing fight against U.S. Latin American drug policy. With these new challenges come new costs, and your financial support is crucial in our fight to protect our rights, so please visit our online donation page at: http://actioncenter.drugpolicy.org/ctt.asp?u=36993&l=4472 .1) RAVE ACT IIIn the fight to repeal the RAVE Act we have come up against another piece of anti-rave legislation. If made into law, this latest attack on our civil liberties would open more doors for the prosecution of innocent business owners unable to stop drugs coming into their venue. Thousands of our supporters have already faxed their representatives about what we are calling the RAVE Act II (officially known as the Ecstasy Awareness Act) and groups across the country, like EM:DEF and ROAR, are mobilizing voters against the bill. If you haven't faxed your Representative about the Ecstasy Awareness Act, please do so at: http://actioncenter.drugpolicy.org/ctt.asp?u=36993&l=4336 We also need you to fax your Representative about the CLEAN-UP Act if you haven't already. http://actioncenter.drugpolicy.org/ctt.asp?u=36993&l=4337 For more on what you can do to stop threats to hip hop and electronic music see: http://actioncenter.drugpolicy.org/ctt.asp?u=36993&l=4338 2) SEPTEMBER 6TH PROTEST AGAINST THE RAVE ACTThousands will gather at the Capitol in Washington, DC on September 6th for a musical protest against the RAVE Act and the continuing assault on dance culture. The event, sponsored by ROAR!: The National Dance and Music Rights Alliance, will feature Junior Vasquez, D:Fuse, booths, prizes, and much, much more.Dance for your rights. U.S. Capitol, Washington DC. 1pm onwards. For more information on the protest including directions see: http://actioncenter.drugpolicy.org/ctt.asp?u=36993&l=4339 Tour Buses are being arranged from numerous cities. Please email info roargroup.org for all general inquiries.3) NEW DRUGS AND TERROR ACT IN THE NAME OF 'VICTORY' Two years ago, with the very real experience of terrorism in our lives, Senators rushed to pass the PATRIOT Act. Essentially a license for the government to spy on its own people, the Act has become one of the biggest threats to our civil liberties. Now, without urgency, Senators are about to make an even bigger mistake. The misnamed Vital Interdiction of Criminal Terrorist Organizations Act of 2003, or the VICTORY Act (hang on.....that should be a small r and where did the Y come from??), contains numerous disturbing provisions including laws that could charge non-violent drug offenders as terrorists. It has not even been introduced yet and civil libertarians are commanding their battle stations. Judging by the title of the Act the government is more concerned about propaganda than dealing with real issues of terrorism or drugs. This legislation will undermine the country's struggle with terrorism by conflating it with the war on drugs. This legislation will become the next battle ground for civil rights in the U.S. Stay tuned, as you can be sure the Drug Policy Alliance, with your help, will be mounting a concerted and persistent campaign against this act. For more information on the VICTORY Act
see: http://actioncenter.drugpolicy.org/ctt.asp?u=36993&l=4340(4) WHERE'S WALTERS? THE DRUG CZAR'S SECRETIVE TOURMarching to the beat of the Bush administration's drug war drum, the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy's (ONDCP) Drug Czar John Walters is using tax-payer dollars to preach harmful, punitive drug policies across the nation while keeping the location of his appearances secret until the last minute. What does this say about the democratic process and the war on drugs? We've been asking supporters to contact both the White House and the ONDCP to ask that they operate in line with democratic transparency and release the dates and times of the Walter's tour. Call the White House: 
202-456-1414
president whitehouse.govCall the ONDCP:
202-395-6700

Damaging all crops, including food, and wreaking havoc on environmental and political conditions in a country already impoverished and plagued by civil strife aerial fumigation has only moved coca growing deeper into the forests and to other areas. The House of Representatives last month narrowly defeated Democrats' efforts to boost funds to fight the global AIDS epidemic by shifting money away from anti-drug efforts in Colombia. The House voted 226-195 against redirecting the money.More on the vote here:

Remembering Rainbow Farm 
    
 Who: Friends of Rainbow FarmWhere: In front of the "old" Cass County courthouse, at the junction of Routes 60 and 62, in Cassoppolis, MIWhen: 5:30 p.m., Labor Day, Monday September 1st, 2003What: Remembrance vigil for Tom Crosslin and Rollie RohmBring: Signs, banners, drums, music, candles, photos, memories, or anything you feel should be part of a loving and respectful gathering to honor our fallen brothersIt's that time again, folks.Two years ago, Labor Day weekend 2001, Tom and Rollie were executed by the forces of so-called law and order. They were not killed to protect the public safety, to punish them for smoking cannabis, or because of the plants in their basement. Our friends worked boldly and passionately to change destructive, unjust laws, and to inspire others to do the same; and in the end they rejected the authority of a court that had amply shown its bias. They refused to hide. They refused to run. They refused to bow down. And for that, the Police State ground them up in its gears.Now, Labor Day 2003, friends of Rainbow Farm will once again gather to remember, to honor, and to show the world that we will not forget. Whether you're an old Farm hand or just discovering the story, if you feel moved to join us, please do. We will begin at 5:30 and stay until we decide to go. I hope to see you there.PeaceLoveGratitude, Melody A. Karr, Michigan Cannabis Action NetworkBy the way, for those of you who haven't seen or heard, the October issue of Playboy Magazine includes a 9-page article entitled "Siege at Rainbow Farm." Whatever your opinion of the magazine, this was a pretty decent article --- as fair as anything else I've seen, more so than many. Word of warning: it does include graphic photos of Tom and Rollie's bodies.

US: CO: Honoring Bush
Viewed at: http://www.boulderweekly.com/uncensored.html
 
Honoring Bush- - - - - - - - - - - -
by Pamela White (AGAIN)
(letters boulderweekly.com) They say history is written by the victors. But lately it seems U.S. history is being written by bad fiction writers.Take George W.On May 1, he spent 20 minutes getting into a naval aviator flight uniform and climbed into an S-3B Viking aircraft. Then he took a flight of mere minutes and landed on the USS Abraham Lincoln, which was waiting just off shore. George then announced the end of major combat in Iraq, although, as the mounting death toll indicates, fighting is still far from over.It was nothing more than theater, a staged photo op designed to portray our draft-dodger president as a hero.Truth is no hindrance to propaganda. Nor does it dull the aspirations of commerce.That’s why a prominent toy company is now marketing a George W. Bush Elite Force Aviator doll."This is history you lived!" the advertisement states. "Exactingly detailed and fully equipped in 1:6 scale with authentic gear, this sure-to-be-sought-after, historic figure features a fully detailed cloth flight suit, helmet with oxygen mask, survival vest, g-pants and parachute harness. This meticulous figure commemorates an historic moment and will be coveted by both collectors and anyone wanting to show their support for this event in presidential history."Suggested retail value? A whopping $39.99.Makes you want to grab a bucket and barf.The only thing elite about George W, after all, is his attitude toward anyone unlucky enough not to be a millionaire. He’s not a hero. He’s certainly not a warrior. And his successes look oddly like failures, from weapons of mass destruction to the economy to the war on Iraq to his relationships with almost every other nation on the planet.As I’m not one to complain without offering a solution–and as I recognize the need for businesses to make money off famous, or infamous, people–I offer the following suggestions to bbi, the company that designed the doll.George W Elite Yale Student–This exactingly detailed doll comes with its own C-average report card, as well as a bottle of Jack Daniels and fully articulated plastic puddle of vomit. George’s right hand is curved to hold the miniature whisky bottle, and a little button on the doll’s back magically jerks the hand toward George’s slack mouth.George W Elite National Guardsman–While thousands of poor American boys were forced into planes and sent overseas to kill or be killed, George used his congressman daddy’s connections to move above other young men and win a slot in the Texas Air National Guard–despite getting the lowest possible passing grade on the entry exam. He then failed to report for duty for 17 months. This doll commemorates George’s heroic contributions to the nation’s struggle during the Vietnam years. Open the box, and you find nothing. Yep, it’s empty.George W Elite Cocaine User–Recreated with loving care, this doll features the George we know and love dressed in an expensive business suit and wearing a bit of telltale white on his nose. This doll comes with a variety of unique accessories–a tiny mirror, razor blade and coke spoon, complete with the monogram "GB" on the handle. It also comes with a tiny baggie of simulated cocaine. Buy it for your kids.George W Elite Drug Warrior–A perfect compliment to the George W Elite Cocaine User doll, the Drug Warrior doll depicts our beloved president after he’s put away his spoon and taken up busting drug users instead. The $3,000 suit he wore to his inauguration–the day that marked this transformation–has been painstakingly replicated. Accessories for this doll include a $150 pen used to sign the bill that allocates more than $2 billion annual for the War on Drugs George W Once Used. It also comes with a tiny manila folder with the number 71 on the front, symbolizing the percentage of U.S. prisoners incarcerated on drug charges.George W Elite Philanthropist–Our personal favorite, this doll comes with an unusual accessory–a baby. Clad only in a diaper and threadbare T-shirt, the baby has been carefully recreated to represent children of the working poor. George W bends at the waist and, with a push on the magic button on his back, grabs the Earned Income Credit check from the baby and pivots to hand it to the Dick Cheney Elite Haliburton doll, which must be purchased separately and clandestinely. (Retail price: $3 million.)I don’t mind honoring George W, provided we commemorate only his true contributions to our nation’s history and not staged fantasies. No doubt bbi will hop on these historically accurate options just in time for the holidays. Stay tuned to a toy-store shelf near you.Respond: letters boulderweekly.com

Thanks FoM
We've got MS patients and other patients trying to do their best to raise money in their communities, but the effort is coming up short. We don't want any patient willing to make the trip to stay home.Jim is one of the most creative activists I've ever known, and along with Cheryl, has moved this issue forward with sheer will power.I hope his sacrifice inspires everyone to chip in. I guarantee it will be worth it.Help move patients like those listed on the Donate link to the Patients page!Gary
