Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the late 1990s, marijuana grow operations have been identified by media and others as a new and dangerous criminal activity of epidemic proportions. With Killer Weed, Susan C. Boyd and Connie Carter use their analysis of fifteen years of newspaper coverage to show how consensus about the dangerous people and practices associated with marijuana cultivation was created and disseminated by numerous spokespeople including police, RCMP, and the media in Canada. The authors focus on the context of media reports in Canada to show how claims about marijuana cultivation have intensified the perception that this activity poses significant dangers to public safety and thus is an appropriate target for Canada's war on drugs. Boyd and Carter carefully show how the media draw on the same spokespeople to tell the same story again and again, and how a limited number of messages has led to an expanding anti-drug campaign that uses not only police, but BC Hydro and local municipalities to crack down on drug production. Going beyond the newspapers, Killer Weed examines how legal, political, and civil initiatives that have emerged from the media narrative have troubling consequences for a shrinking Canadian civil society.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some people suffer from chronic, debilitating disorders for which no conventional treatment brings relief. Can marijuana ease their symptoms? Would it be breaking the law to turn to marijuana as a medication? There are few sources of objective, scientifically sound advice for people in this situation. Most books about marijuana and medicine attempt to promote the views of advocates or opponents. To fill the gap between these extremes, authors Alison Mack and Janet Joy have extracted critical findings from a recent Institute of Medicine study on this important issue, interpreting them for a general audience. Marijuana As Medicine? provides patientsâ€"as well as the people who care for themâ€"with a foundation for making decisions about their own health care. This empowering volume examines several key points, including: Whether marijuana can relieve a variety of symptoms, including pain, muscle spasticity, nausea, and appetite loss. The dangers of smoking marijuana, as well as the effects of its active chemical components on the immune system and on psychological health. The potential use of marijuana-based medications on symptoms of AIDS, cancer, multiple sclerosis, and several other specific disorders, in comparison with existing treatments. Marijuana As Medicine? introduces readers to the active compounds in marijuana. These include the principal ingredient in Marinol, a legal medication. The authors also discuss the prospects for developing other drugs derived from marijuana's active ingredients. In addition to providing an up-to-date review of the science behind the medical marijuana debate, Mack and Joy also answer common questions about the legal status of marijuana, explaining the conflict between state and federal law regarding its medical use. Intended primarily as an aid to patients and caregivers, this book objectively presents critical information so that it can be used to make responsible health care decisions. Marijuana As Medicine? will also be a valuable resource for policymakers, health care providers, patient counselors, medical faculty and studentsâ€"in short, anyone who wants to learn more about this important issue.

Book excerpt: When Rick Ryder comes across a body at the bottom of a 30-foot waterfall in the Blue Ridge mountains, he has no idea the death will put his work, as well as his life and friendships, in jeopardy. On the same property, police discover a large patch of high potency marijuana, and soon 70-year-old Queenie Weaver is charged with murder and manufacturing a controlled substance. Rick races the clock to prove her innocence before she loses the land that has been in her family for generations. More lives are threatened as Rick uncovers evidence that the death and the marijuana plot are part of a conspiracy to acquire thousands of acres of mountain property. Skill, luck, perseverance and, what his wife refers to as stupidity in the face of danger, lead Rick to a climactic showdown which will either exonerate Queenie or end with more killing. The future of a way of life in the mountains hangs in the balance.

Book excerpt: Also available on Kindle Before you pull out the lawn mower or sign up for the lawn mower service, grab a copy of this book to get insight on a strategy that will allow you to efficiently earn the best lawn in the neighborhood and that will keep you from wasting time and money on losing battles. Among the variety of books on lawn and garden, it has been impossible to find one that combines a concise strategy and actionable tactics with clear photographs of the weeds that are causing your lawn care problems. That gap has now been filled. How do you come up with a schedule for lawn feeding? When do you apply feedings to your lawn? What do forsythias have to do with anything? Do pre-emergent applications only apply to crabgrass? Is your lawn supposed to be a pleasure? or a master? These are some of the questions addressed and answered in a short, targeted text of the NC WEED KILLER's strategy for lawn care and weed control. Then there are 31 full color close-up photographs in the Rogue's Gallery of common weeds. Knowing what you are up against allows you to pick the best strategy and target the best weed control herbicide. Luckily, landing in the 7c zone of North Carolina, the NC WEED KILLER has been able to document the weeds that have been creating problems from New York to Georgia, from North Carolina to The Pacific Northwest. And, he has been able to work out the best ways to combat those weeds- and win! With the books available made so large to attract publishers, and so complex that there is too much information, the home gardener has been left without clear guidelines and a concise strategy. With hardcover volumes so large and with those little web site thumbnail pictures on your computer, getting the information out into the garden for good side by side comparison has been difficult, if even possible. Pick up your 8 x 8 A Photo Handbook to Weeds... and head for the yard! A simple plan, portable information, and actions that aren't going to rob all your time and money. You are looking at the answer you have been looking for. Good reading - and Good Successful Gardening!

Book excerpt: How does anyone get to the top of their field? We all know it takes hard work, dedication, and the occasional dose of luck, but what separates a wannabe from a winner? The Art of Doing brings together an incredible cross-section of individuals who are the at the top of their respective fields, from actor Alec Baldwin to New York Times crossword puzzle editor Will Shortz, to and asks them each one question: how do you succeed at what you do? The advice that they share is illuminating, and occasionally surprising, providing their top ten strategies on how to achieve greatness in a variety of ways. From the practical ("How to Open a Restaurant and Stay in Business," by restaurateur David Chang) to the zany ("How to Live Life on the High Wire," by infamous World Trade Center tightrope walker Philippe Petit), each interview is a testament to the knowledge and experiences that these risk-taking, barrier-breaking individuals have used to achieve their own success. With its diverse perspectives and variety of opinions about how to be the best in any field, this book will shape readers' views of success and inspire them to carve out their own niche.

Book excerpt: In “a brilliant antidote to all the…false narratives about pot” (American Thinker), an award-winning author and former New York Times reporter reveals the link between teenage marijuana use and mental illness, and a hidden epidemic of violence caused by the drug—facts the media have ignored as the United States rushes to legalize cannabis. Recreational marijuana is now legal in nine states. Advocates argue cannabis can help everyone from veterans to cancer sufferers. But legalization has been built on myths—that marijuana arrests fill prisons; that most doctors want to use cannabis as medicine; that it can somehow stem the opiate epidemic; that it is beneficial for mental health. In this meticulously reported book, Alex Berenson, a former New York Times reporter, explodes those myths, explaining that almost no one is in prison for marijuana; a tiny fraction of doctors write most authorizations for medical marijuana, mostly for people who have already used; and marijuana use is linked to opiate and cocaine use. Most of all, THC—the chemical in marijuana responsible for the drug’s high—can cause psychotic episodes. “Alex Berenson has a reporter’s tenacity, a novelist’s imagination, and an outsider’s knack for asking intemperate questions” (Malcolm Gladwell, The New Yorker), as he ranges from the London institute that is home to the scientists who helped prove the cannabis-psychosis link to the Colorado prison where a man now serves a thirty-year sentence after eating a THC-laced candy bar and killing his wife. He sticks to the facts, and they are devastating. With the US already gripped by one drug epidemic, Tell Your Children is a “well-written treatise” (Publishers Weekly) that “takes a sledgehammer to the promised benefits of marijuana legalization, and cannabis enthusiasts are not going to like it one bit” (Mother Jones).
