nothing in the current law changes anything to do with caregivers. future is unknown. arizona made a new law banning home growing within 25 miles of a dispensary.

an interesting question. LARA is supposed to be the administrator of the program. the boss, the chief, the prosecutor, the judge and jury. and yet... prosecutors and law enforcement have taken this role, without administrative rule.

the board has no power to shutdown anything. neither does LARA. as LARA doesnt license the current dispensaries either. this story is getting a lot of attention but its misguided. at least milegalize is using the story to get more attention. but yeesh.

hawaii added lupus to its mmj program http://health.hawaii.gov/medicalcannabisregistry/general-information/

yep, any ex-convicts or ex-felons can get a patient card. caregiver card is a different question. good luck buddy. if you are worried, you can go to michigan ichat and do a background check on yourself to see whats on your record. i think it costs $10. https://apps.michigan.gov/ichat/home.aspx well i guess ichat says surpressed records wont be found there either, so no luck there. if you have more questions feel free to ask.

for tourettes, here are some studies. 10.1038/sj.npp.1300047 10.1007/s13311-015-0376-4 10.1517/14656566.4.10.1717 10.1177/026988119300700411 10.3233/BEN-120276 10.1055/s-2001-15191 10.1007/978-3-540-88955-7_17

yes Tourettes is a good idea. its already a condition in other states. i thought it was covered by chronic/severe and persistent muscle spasms? it doesnt hurt to submit it. i'll dig up a bunch of papers for it. if you need to find the full access paper, find the doi of the paper, then paste it after http://sci-hub.cc/ and scihub will find the full pdf for you. example: http://sci-hub.cc/10.1176/appi.neuropsych.16110310

if you're on the milegalize mailing list they email you updates. or if you're in contact with the volunteer army they give you updates when you turn in petitions. as for a signature count, i dont think there is a public website with this information. each milestone, the groups put the news out. 100k: http://www.mlive.com/news/index.ssf/2017/07/michigan_legalization_petition.html 200k: https://www.regulatemi.org/news/2017/08/15/whoa,-we’re-halfway-there/ 200k: http://wtvbam.com/news/articles/2017/aug/21/marijuana-legalization-drive-passes-200000-signatures/ if you want to stay connected there are a few places... https://www.regulatemi.org/news/ and facebook https://www.facebook.com/MiLegalize/ https://www.facebook.com/RegulateMi/ twitter https://twitter.com/RegulateMI https://twitter.com/milegalize2018

i'd ask you how carruthers case is going now, but the answer is not good.

bob, i know you pay more attention than i do... how many dispensary owners have been sent to jail? not many. carruthers was one. but besides him, cant think of too many others. agro and her boys still fighting in court, STILL. how many would you say? less than 20 people? more than 50 ? i dont think its more than 100 people total in michigan. maybe i'm wrong.

$5000 per pound of edible? naw. $50-100 tops. brownies dont cost that much, ohio.

autism petition will be resubmitted hopefully in september.

Ocfentanil 2. Furanyl fentanyl (Fu-F) 3. Acryloylfentanyl (Acrylfentanyl) 4. Carfentanil 5. 4-fluoroisobutyrfentanyl (4-FIBF, pFIBF) 6.

Cannabidiol (CBD) Cannabidiol (CBD) is one of the active cannabinoids identified in cannabis. CBD has been shown to be beneficial in experimental models of several neurological disorders, including those of seizure and epilepsy. In the United States, CBD-containing products are in human clinical testing in three therapeutic areas, but no such products are approved by FDA for marketing for medical purposes in the United States. CBD is a Schedule I controlled substance under the CSA. At the 37th (2015) meeting of the ECDD, the committee requested that the Secretariat prepare relevant documentation to conduct pre-reviews for several substances, including CBD. IV. Opportunity To Submit Domestic Information As required by section 201(d)(2)(A) of the CSA, FDA, on behalf of HHS, invites interested persons to submit comments regarding the 17 named drug substances. Any comments received will be considered by HHS when it prepares a scientific and medical evaluation of these drug substances. HHS will forward a scientific and medical evaluation of these drug substances to WHO, through the Secretary of State, for WHO's consideration in deciding whether to recommend international control/decontrol of any of these drug substances. Such control could limit, among other things, the manufacture and distribution (import/export) of these drug substances and could impose certain recordkeeping requirements on them. Although FDA is, through this notice, requesting comments from interested persons, which will be considered by HHS when it prepares an evaluation of these drug substances, HHS will not now make any recommendations to WHO regarding whether any of these drugs should be subjected to international controls. Instead, HHS will defer such consideration until WHO has made official recommendations to the Commission on Narcotic Drugs, which are expected to be made in early 2018. Any HHS position regarding international control of these drug substances will be preceded by another Federal Register notice soliciting public comments, as required by section 201(d)(2)(B) of the CSA. DATES: Submit either electronic or written comments by September 13, 2017. ADDRESSES: You may submit comments as follows. Please note that late, untimely filed comments will not be considered. Electronic comments must be submitted on or before September 13, 2017. The https://www.regulations.gov electronic filing system will accept comments until midnight Eastern Time at the end of September 13, 2017. Comments received by mail/hand delivery/courier (for written/paper submissions) will be considered timely if they are postmarked or the delivery service acceptance receipt is on or before that date. Electronic Submissions Submit electronic comments in the following way: Federal eRulemaking Portal: https://www.regulations.gov. Follow the instructions for submitting comments. Comments submitted electronically, including attachments, to https://www.regulations.gov will be posted to the docket unchanged. Because your comment will be made public, you are solely responsible for ensuring that your comment does not include any confidential information that you or a third party may not wish to be posted, such as medical information, your or anyone else's Social Security number, or confidential business information, such as a manufacturing process. Please note that if you include your name, contact information, or other information that identifies you in the body of your comments, that information will be posted on https://www.regulations.gov.
