it is not legal is because we can't find a good way to tax it?
Answer:
TLC ? Leandro? Hahahaha...Weed has "Tender Loving Care"...Hahahahaha your right but wrong that's THC
Alcohol is at least 20 times worse for you than liquor and the "Government" taxes and allows IT. So the answer is the YES the Government is full of crap about this.
Some of the things are true to an extent such as mental problems caused by marijuana do happen but they arent permanent. I think the taxing thing might one of the reasons but probably no the only one
Well I don't think so since Marijuana does contain TLC which makes people hallucinate and three's short term effect and long term effects and these areShort-term Effects
Short-term effects of marijuana include problems with memory and learning, distorted perception (sights, sounds, time, touch), trouble with thinking and problem solving, loss of motor coordination, increased heart rate, and anxiety. Long-term Effects
Marijuana smoke contains some of the same cancer-causing compounds as tobacco, sometimes in higher concentrations.Studies show that someone who smokes five joints per week may be taking in as many cancer-causing chemicals as someone who smokes a full pack of cigarettes every day.
Weed is safer than an antidepressant, trust me.
Leandro L is funny as hell! "TLC" HAHAHAHAi think he means thc. he obviously knows nothing but what the government has told him.i will say that while it is not exactly good for you.. it is wayyyyy better for you than alcohol... and thats a fact. so if the potential harm of a substance should dictate its legality, then it should be legal. hell, there are already legal stores that sell pot in california if u got a doctors signature.
You find a good summary of when and why marijuana was outlawed at http://druglibrary.org/schaffer/library/...You can find a funny short history of the subject at http://druglibrary.org/schaffer/history/... In short, most state marijuana laws were first passed in the period 1913-30. There were two major reasons for the laws.The first reason was racial prejudice against Mexican immigrants. The second was the fear heroin addiction would lead to the use of marijuana -- exactly the opposite of the modern gateway myth. It was outlawed at the national level in 1937. You can find the full transcripts of the hearings for the law at http://druglibrary.org/schaffer/hemp/tax... The reasons the law was required -- it was said, was because marijuana causes insanity, criminality, and death. It should be noted that the head of the Federal Bureau of Narcotics said that there was no connection at all between marijuana and heroin. In short, the reasons for the law were racism, ignorance, and nonsense. The primary economic interests associated with making it illegal were the newspapers which made money with sensational journalism and the people within the Federal Bureau of Narcotics itself. Since then, entire industries have grown up that benefit from marijuana prohibition.Taxation was not an issue. Hemp was grown throughout the country and taxed just like any other crop.Taxation was the means they used to create the law. At the time, everyone agreed that the US Government had no constitutional power to prohibit drugs. Therefore, they achieved prohibition by putting a tax on drugs, and then making the amount of the tax so much that no one would pay it. They also required a license, and then didn't issue any licenses. Therefore, when people got arrested, they didn't really get arrested for marijuana. They got arrested because they didn't pay the tax on marijuana and have the license. It was a "tax violation."Harry Anslinger, who was head of the Federal Bureau of Narcotics from 1930-1962 knew from the very beginning that the marijuana laws were completely unenforceable. He knew because, shortly after the law was passed, he walked out on a bridge over the Potomac and saw before him a field of wild cannabis that stretched as far as the eye could see. Therefore, he reasoned that the only way to approach the prohibition was with a campaign of Reefer Madness. That is, he would tell such stupendous lies that no one would dare touch the stuff. For example, his own US Official Expert on marijuana testified in court, under oath, that marijuana would make your incisors grow six inches long and drip with blood. He went on to say that, when he tried it, it turned him into a bat. The lies have gotten a little less ridiculous since then, but the US Government still maintains an openly admitted policy of lying about drugs.

Is it true that aspirin can affect our liver?
please tell me... i want to know about how serious is the effectness...
Answer:
It is very rare that Aspirin can cause any damage to the liver. There have been only a handful of cases of hepatotoxicity (liver damage) but these have been primarily in either YOUNG rheumatoid arthritis patients or lupus patients, and even then it was reversible.Sometimes Aspirin is mistaken for acetaminophen, which in high doses can cause liver damage, but even this is rare.Keep in mind that Aspirin still needs a somewhat healthy liver to function properly! Aspirin is broken down into the active salicylate partially by the liver. The salicylate in Aspirin is then broken down into smaller components, primarily by the liver, so it can be easily removed from the body in the urine.
ye it duz, but in the long term, it starts to get eatn away shall we say!
yeah if you take the whole bottle
I don't know specifically, but a lot of drugs do IF you take them for a long time or abuse them. For most people, I don't think it would be a problem.
Your body needs ways of getting rid of harmful chemicals, and the liver is very important in this process. Any time you take medicine, even an aspirin, it's your liver's job to later remove the medicine from your bloodstream. If your liver isn't functioning correctly, the medicine may stay in your bloodstream longer than it should, and that can cause problems. :-)
Aspirin is ok.. stay away from Acetominephen (tylenol)
Yes, Aspirin can affect our liver.Aspirin causes insignificant gastrointestinal bleeding that can over time, however, cause iron deficiency; gastric ulcers may also occur with long-term use. Complications can be avoided by using enteric-coated aspirin, which does not dissolve until reaching the intestine. Aspirin should not be given to children who have chicken pox or influenza, because it increases the risk of contracting the rare and frequently fatal Reye's syndrome, a disease of the brain and some abdominal organs.

is it true that ayurveda and yoga can cure otherwise incurable disease?
Answer:
Ayurvedic medicine is a form of alternative medicine in use primarily in the Indian subcontinent. The word "Ayurveda" is a tatpurusha compound of 膩yus "life" and veda "knowledge", and would roughly translate as the "Science of Life". Ayurveda deals with the measures of healthy living, along with therapeutic measures that relate to physical, mental, social and spiritual harmony. Ayurveda is also one among the few traditional systems of medicine involving surgery. Even now aurveda is practiced by many persons in India and they sometimes cure cronic diseases like cancer, Diabetes and heart ailments aprt from minor diseases. Yoga is a family of ancient spiritual practices originating in India. It is one of the six schools of Hindu philosophy, in which it is often paired with Samkhya, and they are referred together as the Samkhya-Yoga school.
Today in India and across the World, Yoga is a vibrant living tradition and is seen as a means to both physical health and spiritual mastery. Karma Yoga (yoga of Action), Jnana Yoga (yoga of Knowledge), Bhakti Yoga (yoga of Devotion), and Raja Yoga (yoga of Meditation) are considered the four main paths of Yoga.
Outside India, Yoga has become primarily associated with the practice of asanas (postures) of Hatha Yoga, a system of Yoga that developed from - and in order to prepare students for the practice of - Raja YogaYoga is not a medicinal treatment and by severe practice of Yoga we can keep our body healthy and also cure problems like constipation, blood pressure, obesity, and very many diseases-.
I believe that they can. I'd like to hear some experiences regarding these powerful healing techniques.
Theoretically, yes it is. Practically the chances are rare. However they help lessen the intensity of disease. But one should go for these options because there is no other choice anyway. Yoga is also a good defence against any future possible diseases.
wouldn't everyone like to believe that...but in true fact it does not...maybe it can help to alleviate some of the symptoms associated with diseases but it does not in any way cure the disease
Ayurveda is Sanskrit for knowledge of living. Ayurvedic herbs etc help in keeping one healthy .Yoga is Sanskrit for a state or stature. Yoga helps muscles,bones and joints healthy and functional. Curing otherwise incurable diseases is claimed but not proved.
Is it true that breakthrough medical research has proved that doing research on rats causes cancer in rats?
Answer:
Yes and no. For example, some kinds of cancers that ONLY occur in rats have been found. It was widely believed that saccharin or cyclamates (I forget which one) caused cancer, but the fact was that rats digest, process and eliminate it differently than we do. When it is concentrated in their urine, it forms crystals, which it does not do in our urine because our urine contains a higher percentage of water. (A human with water levels in the urine as low as a rat's would already be dead of dehydration.)The sharp-edge crystals in the rats' bladders repeatedly cut them and caused bleeding, required healing, and eventually led to a breakdown of the healing process, with uncontrolled cell growth and reproduction, called cancer-- because the bladders were continually being cut by the sharp-edged crystals and needing to be healed...! So it was not that the sweetener caused cancer. ANYTHING that crystallized in their urine like that would eventually have caused cancer. The rats just couldn't tell us, that's all. Stop medical experiments on mute animals-- experiment on PETA members, instead. THOSE WORTHY OF OUR RESPECT WOULD VOLUNTEER.11 DEC 06, 1851 hrs, GMT.
this is probly a joke question(?)but--having had many rats and mice over the years,i can tell u that EVERY-and i do mean 100% of them-rodent that i ever had,died of cancer in its old age.u could see the tumours,and they'd have to be put down.in the wild,they are predated by almost everything-owls,foxes,u name it.they dont live long enough to develop the disease.but 3 year old mice and 5 yr old rats are extraordinarily prone to cancer in my opinion.ive often wondered if those tests are skewed-i mean,was it the diet they were fed.or the chemicals they ingested in the lab-or,like my pets,was it just that rodents are cancer prone to begin with??
Is it true or a myth?
that food grade "poppy seeds" can cause a false positive for an illegal drug in a standard drug test?
Answer:
Yes, you can test positive for opiods after poppy seeds. I work in research and we used to work with cocane addicts. They were tested for drugs when they came in to do research. One day the researchers decided to test the poppy seed ingestion on themselves, and they tested positive after eating poppy seed muffins.
It's true...Mythbusters tested it on their show and proved that it does happen.
That's true...avoid them if you know you will be tested.
Yes.this is true. Do you ever watch Mythbusters TV show? On that show they tested this myth and proved it to be valid. I was pretty amazed, I didn't really think it worked, and you didn't have to eat a whole bunch to do it either!
Poppy seeds can definitely cause a false positive on a drug screen. It has to be poppy seeds from opium poppy plants. Both opiate and non-opiate poppy seeds are sold and used in cooking, but non-opiate seeds are more common. They get into your system quickly and stay for a couple of days.
It's false. Mythbusters ate a whole cup of poppy seeds and it turned out NEGATIVE. So it's harmless to eat a poppy seed muffin. Maybe a long time ago it happened, but today they raised the limit on the margin for error to reduce false positives.
Yes, they are called interferring substances.
Yes it can , it's has thesame chemicals as opium (drug the smoked in korea during the war- also in perks) , so it will test posotive and also police dogs can smell poppy seeds as if it were opium..
there have been cases where poppy seed kolaches (we laughed at how specific they got) did cause false positives in drug tests for morphine/heroin. although if/when they reflex to tlc it should come out normal.

Is it true that a person's pupils will dilate when they see someone they are attracted to?
I read about this somewhere, but I'm not sure how credible the source was.
Answer:
Yes, it's true, but none of the responses so far have really given the most accurate reason for it, so I'll elaborate. Pupillary dilation is called mydriasis and is mediated by the sympathetic component of the nervous system. The sympathetic output is elicited by anything that causes arousal -- fear, emotion, surprise, etc. So, seeing someone you're attracted to clearly fits in this category, and results in sympathetic activation, which causes mydriasis of the pupils.The sympathetic system is also responsible for the other physiological manifestations of attraction, such as increased heart rate, nervousness, increased respiratory rate, etc.
Someone or something, it's true.
I don't know because i never carry a mirror
Yes ,it is very true..heart beat is raised and breath ing is quickened..Kinda like the fright or flight thing.
Pupil dilation:To start off with pupil dilation can indicate liking, interest, attraction or鈥?. intense fear. (we鈥檒l leave out intense fear for another segment). Our pupils dilate and grow when we see someone we are attracted to. Why? Because our eyes enlarge to take more of this person in. This is an unconscious occurrence which we cannot physiologically control. The fun part about this is you are able to tell if someone is interested in you by observing their pupils 鈥?do they expand or contract? Contracting would not be good as it indicates intense dislike. Of course, you need to take the environment into account as well. If you are standing in the sun it may be difficult for the physiological response of pupil dilation to occur. On the flip side, if you are standing in a dark area, pupils will automatically contract, even if there is no liking involved. In addition, remember that some people will have larger or smaller pupils by nature. Dark restaurants induce romance because the dim lights encourage the larger pupils making people more attracted to one another.The fun part about this is that most people do not consciously understand pupil response so you are now one up on a great deal of the population. Studies done indicate as pupil size increases so does attractiveness. For example: models on magazine covers normally have their pupils doctored to give them larger pupils because advertisers know this sells more magazines. Likewise, if pupils appear smaller, it decreases the attractiveness.Interesting tidbit: During the middle ages, women often used a plant extract called Belladonna (Italian for "beautiful lady") To give themselves bigger pupils. They would put drops of the extract into their eyes in order to look more attractive to men - and it worked. The problem was Belladonna was poisonous so the women used Belladonna to look beautiful鈥?. and they did鈥?. and then they would die. Ok, so important points to keep in mind, dilation works in an "unconscious" fashion. Individuals with enlarged pupils are subconsciously seen as attractive, warm, friendly, conscientious people.
yes its true and whats more we are more attracted to people with dilated pupils saw a documentary.they took identical twins and put a solution into the eyes of one to make her pupils dilate.every one in a street survey then chose that girl but couldn't say why they did
yes. why don't you try it.
It is true, this is due to the sudden changes in body chemistry and blood circulation. For example: some people experience cold fingers and some people get a shaky hand. This is blood shifting to the parts of the body where it is required and this causes various effects in the body not just pupil dilation. Breasts expand and you produce more pheromones. etc.
Yes it is true. Psychological experiments have been conducted by touching (i.e. by drawing to make it appear bigger/dilated) a persons pupils alone and presenting the photos to people of the opposite sex. Consistently they had picked out those whose pupils had been touched to appear dilated as more attractive without knowing why. This is one of the subliminal responses that attracts you to people (sometimes of the same sex also).
its absolutely true. sexual arousal causes pupils to dilate.
yes not only that but anything that attracts them that is a function of the eyes
Yes, but it doesnt mean they are going to cheat on you.
