World's oldest marijuana stash totally busted
Two pounds of still-green weed found in a 2,700-year-old Gobi Desert grave

Nearly a kilo (two pounds) of still-green plant material found in a 2,700-year-old grave in the Gobi Desert has just been identified as the world's oldest marijuana stash, according to a paper in the latest issue of the Journal of Experimental Botany. A barrage of tests proves the marijuana possessed potent psychoactive properties and casts doubt on the theory that the ancients only grew the plant for hemp in order to make clothing, rope and other objects. They apparently were getting high too.
Lead author Ethan Russo told Discovery News that the marijuana "is quite similar" to what's grown today. "We know from both the chemical analysis and genetics that it could produce THC (tetrahydrocannabinolic acid synthase, the main psychoactive chemical in the plant)," he explained, adding that no one could feel its effects today, due to decomposition over the millennia.
Russo served as a visiting professor at the Chinese Academy of Sciences Institute of Botany while...

On May 17, 2005, a backbench MP from Westminster sat before a United States Senate subcommittee investigating sanctions-busting oil deals in Iraq before the war, and boldly stated: “I am not now, nor have I ever been, an oil trader”, deliberately echoing language from Joe McCarthy’s infamous anti-communist witch hunts of the 1950s.
Eleven years earlier, the same politician had made a personal visit to Saddam Hussein, and, in the presence of the then-Iraqi dictator and TV cameras, uttered the immortal lines: “Sir, I salute your courage, your strength, your indefatigability”, earning him the title of the “MP for Baghdad Central” from his political foes.
George Galloway, today a member of parliament for his Respect Party in Bradford West in northern England, has rarely shunned controversy in all his years in British politics, remaining one of the most divisive political figures ever to grace the hallowed halls of Westminster. He is the mavericks’ maverick, a man who has built a reputation as a political street fighter, a consummate public speaker...

LEGEND CURTIS HELPED TO SET THE TONE

The demise of the legendary Tony Curtis marks the end of the swashbuckle era for many of us of a certain age.
The demise of the legendary Tony Curtis marks the end of the swashbuckle era for many of us of a certain age.
Along with Kirk Douglas - Spartacus himself - Tony Curtis never looked better than when swashing his buckle, his short sword flashing, his groin barely covered by a short leather skirt.
And, indeed, when he graduated to frocks with Marilyn and Jack Lemon, none could like it hotter than that.
It was as good as it gets. Curtis leaves his oft-estranged and frequently luminous daughter Jamie Lee, who inherited his good looks, acting talent and all-round star quality.
He also leaves something else you don't see much any more but formerly ubiquitous; the "Tony" - called after him, the DA, the hairstyle which marked the late Fifties and into the Sixties when it was cropped first by the Beatle-cut and then the formless hippie long hair.
In Dundee in my youth, real men sported a Tony and shouted...

It's happening a few hours from here and to say the least, it's national news. More and more is coming out and it's just awful.
But thank goodness for Charles Ramsey who stepped up and helped. His video is making the rounds on the internet and McDonalds said on twitter they would be in touch with him as he has now made them even more popular!
