Los Angeles City Council to rush vote on medical pot law The draft ordinance currently being urged would severely restrict the operations of medical marijuana dispensaries, which have exploded across the city in the absence of permanent regulation. By John Hoeffel October 20, 2009 | 10:25 p.m With its moratorium on new medical marijuana dispensaries declared unlawful, the Los Angeles City Council is now poised to act quickly on a strict ordinance that it has struggled with fitfully for more than two years.

Medical Pot Is Bringing L.A. Together In the increasingly acrimonious pot wars, all sides agree City Hall is incompetent By PATRICK RANGE MCDONALD AND JILL STEWART Published on October 21, 2009 at 5:04pm When Los Angeles Superior Court Judge James C. Chalfant ruled on October 19 that the Los Angeles City Council’s two-year moratorium on medical-marijuana dispensaries was illegal, invalidating the ban, few legal experts seemed surprised — including City Attorney Carmen Trutanich, whose aide promptly admitted that the City Council had indeed been in the wrong.

Hi, I’m Justin Eusebio.While tuberculosis is one of the world’s oldest surviving plagues and HIV-1 infection is one of medicine’s newest challenges, there is an undeniable relationship between HIV/AIDS and tuberculosis. Independently, Mycobacteria tuberculosis and HIV are formidable pathogens but in concert, the prospects for controlling either epidemic are jeopardized. TB-HIV coinfection and interaction complicate all aspects of each disease: pathogenesis, epidemiology, clinical presentation, diagnosis, treatment, prevention, and even social and economic issues.

I have grown to dread hospitals and the medical industry in general "and it is an industry". Medical care has become a joke in this country, even in some of the best hospitals which are under staffed, over worked, unprepared and chaotic. Insurance and drug companies, plus other bean counters dictate what, when, how and who gets treated and who gets sent away. A lot of the under staffing and overworking of hospital and clinic staff comes from mandates in hospital admin (bean counters) and from HMO's and insurance companies.Over the past 10 years I have been rushed to the ER more times than I'd like to remember.

For nearly two thousand years "immunity," a legal concept invented in ancient Rome, serves almost exclusively political and juridical ends. "Self defense" also originates in a juridico-political context; it emerges in the mid-seventeenth century, during the English Civil War, when Thomas Hobbes defines it as the first "natural right."

My pan-Canadian quest to get laid has been a poor attempt, but I’ve been sort of beentrying. For a few weeks, maybe even longer, I’ve been chatting with this one guy on line. The first time we were supposed to be in touch he was on the road sans charger, and his cell battery died. After two hours I said to myself, “F. this, I’m heading out for dinner” Along Davie St. I wandered contemplating food, and how much I hate, no loath, eating in restaurants by myself. This negative feeling around restaurants stems from my Kaletra days, the time of my life when I was on a mission to throw up in all the finest restaurant...

Preventing Mother to Child Transmission of HIV in Mwandi, Zambia- A SuccessEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Welcome to this installment of the AIDS Pandemic, a podcast hosted by Dave Wessner of the Department of Biology at Davidson College. I am Sarah Bertram. This past summer, I traveled to Mwandi, Zambia through a Davidson biology and pre-medical program. Mwandi is a predominantly Lozi village of about 7,000 people and the catchment area totals about 25,000 people. We spent 5 weeks in Africa, 3 of which were spent working in the Mwandi Mission Hospital, the Mwandi AIDS clinic, the Orphans and Vulnerable Children’s center, and the Mother and Child Health Center. We all went with a research topic to study that was based on som...

Oct 1/09 Scatter Perm TravelingEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Last night someone must have snuck into my bedroom and given me a Scatter Perm while I was asleep, as it’s been one of those days so far. All is not lost as long as the my plane doesn’t do a crash landing. So far it’s a bit bumpy, and how knows maybe I’ll be able to use a barf bag for the first time. I knew I should have brought my Marinol with me (anti-nausea pills). For some reason I looked at my e-ticket and read my arrival time in Vancouver and thought I was my departure time. When I printed my boarding pass just before the taxi came, I realized that I wasn’t going to make it to the gate in 15 mines. My iPhon...

Ryan White funding extended for 30 days Senate committee passes measure to renew HIV program for four years By LAURA DOUGLAS-BROWN Sep 30 2009 The U.S. Senate voted 62-38 late Wednesday to approve legislation that will extend funding to the U.S. government for 30 days after the Sept. 30 end of the current fiscal year. Included is a measure to maintain HIV/AIDS programs funded by the Ryan White CARE Act for the next month. The U.S. House passed the measure Sept. 25. The legislation buys time for Ryan White, but does not permanently renew funding for the programs. At stake is at least $2.1 billion in funding that props up H...
