Why Not Consider Industrial Hemp?
Author: m-hadley
Date: 07/07/2008 10:58:26
Good Monday Morning, Everybody,
I trust that everyone enjoyed their long weekend and even though Frangela is fabulous, we are all no doubt ready for the return of Momma and the mooks. Here's a recycled post on a cause near and dear to my heart. The cultivation of Industrial Hemp could solve our energy problems, provide a useful substitute to tobacco crops that are falling as more and more Americans quit the cigarette smoking habit (no smiting of smokers among us intended :P). Anyway, read on and and always comments are welcome. Happee Mondee, kids!
With all the talk about reducing carbon emissions in this country, we are ignoring a sensible alternative to ethanol, an alternative that has already proven problematic because it takes a large amount of corn to produce, thereby removing corn from the food supply. An obvious answer to the problem of creating a cheap, easy-to-grow, renewable resource is the cultivation of industrial hemp. Before you all start making jokes about stoners and bongs and other references to industrial hemp's notorious cousin cannabis sativa or marijuana, let me explain that industrial hemp has a very low percentage of THC (typically less than 1%) - the active ingredient that creates a "high" from ingesting or smoking marijuana, so that a stoner would literally have to smoke a bale of industrial hemp in about 20 seconds and then all the smoker would get for her/his trouble is a headache.
The DEA remains in the dark ages about this ideal crop that not only could solve our energy problems, but also is so versatile, the fiber produced from this amazing plant can serve as a source of paper, clothing, and even cooking oil. Industrial Hemp is grown legally in Canada and many countries in Europe. It grows pesticide and herbicide-free and grows in virtually any part of the country. In fact, the government encouraged the cultivation of industrial hemp during WWI & WWII in order to make rope and other supplies for the troops. This is why the legacy of ditch weed still grows in many parts of rural America. If you'd like to learn more about this phenomenal crop, please visit the web site, Vote Hemp, and contact your Congress people about passing legislation that would allow farmers to grow industrial hemp - we are going to need all the help we can find to end our addiction to foreign sources of oil. This a great way to add to the solution!
Read about the government's insane battle to destroy industrial hemp crops being cultivated on the Sovereign Lakota Nation: S.D. family seeks the right to grow hemp.
Here's a link to an excellent column by Jamison Colburn, Why The War on Drugs Should Not Include a War on Hemp.

Good morning! 
YAY! New Momma and da mooks!
Faye. Great post. I always love enlightening people to the REAL reason that they won't "legalize" hemp. It's because a lot of other industries will lose money!! All about money....

Morning, comrades.
Ah......hemp.
Back in the early part of the last century, the family TriSec grew vast fields of the stuff in our ancestral homeland of Mindanao (The Philippines). At the time, the largest purchaser was Uncle Sam....and he made rope out of it for the US Navy.
My grandfather was a rather forward-thinking man, and as he saw the war clouds gathering on the horizon, he fled for the west coast of these United States in the late 1920s.
I have no idea how he came to Boston. My father, in fact, is from Pa's "second American family", as we have relatives on the West Coast of the same bloodline.
In any case, our family lost everything when the Japanese invaded. 38 years later on his deathbed (1979) Pa cursed the Japanese with his last breath....
I would suppose it is a valuable crop. In any case, it sustained several generations of previous TriSecs....I'd be glad to have it a cash crop here.

Good morning everyone. 
Only one week until Momma's on XM.
This will be kind of a hit and run since I have another doctor's appointment at a time when I am usually just staggering out of bed.

His movies had to grow on me over time but I really loved Tommy Boy and Black Sheep. I don't know why people locked on to Sandler when Chris really was truly funny and it didn't seemed forced.
I wish someone had brought him around like Robert Downey Jr. He's someone we really need these days.

Yeah and that was him in real life basically. He was always doing crazy things that made people laugh. And, then he'd use those moments in his movies.
My friend told me a story....He was at a party with Farley ( this was before any of them made it big ) and Chris out of nowhere says to Tim "Hot Dog Run!" and he grabs Tim and they both hop on a Vespa with Chris driving. The hot dog stand was in walking distance, but no matter....so there's Chris and my friend Tim cruising on a vespa until they thudded into the back of a bus...they weren't going very fast obviously. Tim said they just picked up pieces of the scooter, put them in their pockets and went and got hot dogs!

Oh no. I don't want to even try to debunk anything; you can't reason with Neanderthal mouth-breathers.
I think it would be fun to return the favor, using McCain's own quotes and positions. At least we don't have to make things up...

It's official, Barack will give his acceptance speech from Mile High Stadium! From the DNC:
:clap:
Breaking the mold of traditional political Conventions, the Democratic National Convention Committee (DNCC) today announced that Senator Barack Obama will accept the Democratic nomination for President of the United States at Denver's INVESCO Field at Mile High. INVESCO Field can accommodate more than 75,000 people and will be the site of the 2008 Democratic Convention's final day of programming on Thursday, August 28, 2008.
"The Democratic Party is nominating a true change candidate this August, and it is only fitting that we make some big changes in how we put on the Convention," said Governor Howard Dean, Chairman of the Democratic National Committee (DNC). "Senator Obama's candidacy has generated an enormous amount of excitement and interest, not only in the Democratic Party but also in the 2008 Convention. By bringing the last night of the Convention out to the people, we will be able to showcase Barack Obama's positive, people-centered vision for our country in a big way."
"Barack Obama's campaign for change has inspired millions of Americans and brought people into the political process who might never have been involved," said Convention Co-Chair Kansas Governor Kathleen Sebelius. "This change in the Convention program will allow thousands of first -time participants a chance to take part. I can't think of a better Convention finale for our nominee who has made reaching out to voters a hallmark of his campaign."
"When we said we wanted to 'bring down the walls,' open up this Convention like never before and truly speak to the American people, we meant it," said Leah D. Daughtry, CEO of the DNCC. "On August 28, we will offer grassroots Democrats, who have turned out in record numbers this year, the opportunity to witness history shoulder to shoulder with thousands of Americans standing up for the change our country desperately needs."
"Senator Obama and the DNCC have truly brought the community into the Convention," said Colorado Governor Bill Ritter, Jr. "This decision will enable thousands of residents from Colorado, the Rocky Mountain West and across the nation to witness history first hand. What a way to fire up our grassroots activists as we head into the fall campaign."
Primetime Convention activities Monday, August 25 through Wednesday, August 27 will continue to be held at the Pepsi Center. The final day of the Convention on Thursday, August 28, including the nomination acceptance speech of Senator Barack Obama, will be held at INVESCO Field at Mile High, also located in downtown Denver. Daytime Convention events, including meetings of the Democratic caucuses and councils will continue to be held at the Colorado Convention Center.

So I guess in typical Republican fashion, it took an entire tree to make a 12" wooden box. :rolleyes2:
although if they were going to give him a box to store all of his accomplishments as Prez, a 1" square box (that didn't open) would suffice.

I have been reading the Hulk comics since I was a kid. Actually, if you read the comics, the standard Hulk Smash version has not been used as much since the 80's and there have been many variations of the Hulk persona due to Banner having a split personality which was created as a defense mechanism when he was abused as a child.
The one thing that annoyed me about the final battle scene was that I could spot the Toronto businesses for a scene that is supposed to be taking place in "New York City".
But, I am psyched about The Dark Knight. I'm glad the films are now portraying the character as he's supposed to be.

Good morning, bloggers!! Excellent blog entry, m_hadley!
I hope that everyone had a great holiday weekend and is feeling fine today.
Over here, things are going pretty well. Following up some job leads and doing a few other things.
By the way, the UNN Daily Headlines are up.

That's Thom's whole point. But, people get so hell bent on their paranoia that someone's going to kill them that they fail to see it.
Thom is a member of the NRA is he not?
I agree with him...the point where we differ is I don't like guns. In an "Absolut" world they wouldn't exist. . . of course neither would cars!
But, in both cases I am fine with them being in the hands of those who know how to use them!!!! There is nothing wrong with basic competency regulations on objects that could harm others ( or yourself for that matter. )

That is true.
However, guns can kill people and therefore whether the right to own one is in the Constitution, or not, they should be owned and operated by properly trained and licensed individuals.

Because the right to ride a motorcycle is not in the Constitution.

That is true.
However, guns can kill people and therefore whether the right to own one is in the Constitution, or not, they should be owned and operated by properly trained and licensed individuals.

Heh.. motorcycles can kill people too, especially if the rider is a reckless idiot.
Oddly it's the same with guns, except you can't call an over-curious kid who finds a unsecured gun in their parents' closet a reckless idiot. In that case, you refer to the five dipshits on the Supreme Court who said you don't need to have guns locked up or trigger-locked last week.

Iteresting factoid from Randi. Since the Surge, we have lost over 1000 soldiers. Yup working like a charm. Randi talking about the soldier I mentioned earlier.

It cost us $43.00 for 2 tickets and refreshments.
I guess that is why some theaters are closing.

Generalization about motorcyclists? 
There are some very good, safe riders out there. And, there are some good car drivers who are aware of motorcycles and keep a safe distance, etc.
And, there are some bad, foolish riders as well as some not so good car drivers.
It is not the fault of either more than the other.

Take Webb off the VP list.
Full statement at link.
I must say that I am happy for this. Not for any other reason than he is a wonderful senator.
"[u ]nder no circumstances" -- does he want to be considered as Obama's veep. "Last week I communicated to Sen. Obama and his presidential campaign my firm intention to remain in the United States Senate, where I believe I am best equipped to serve the people of Virginia and this country. Under no circumstances will I be a candidate for vice president.
But Webb also said he would campaign hard to help Obama win the battleground of Virginia in the general election. "He is a man who speaks eloquently about our national goals and calls for the practical solutions that must be put into place to obtain them," he said. "I will proudly campaign for him."

Interestingly enough, Mrs. TriSec and I are also celebrating 12....this coming weekend. (Bastille Day).
And we would have done the 4th if we could have made the schedule work. (reception vs. church)
Wanna double-date?
Oh, which is why I'm chuckling over the current hurricane. We were hit by an earlier Hurricane Bertha in these parts the day before (July 13, 1996). The 14th was the hottest day of that year...like getting married under a blanket somebody fished out of a pot of boiling water.

Randi just mentioned the damm Lyrics to Independence day that Hannity likes to play as sone jingoistic tune. Look at the lyrics:
Well she seemed alright by dawn's early light
Though she looked a lil worried and weak
She tried to pretend he wasn't drinking again
But Daddy left the proof on her cheek
And I was only eight years old that summer
And I always seemed to be in the way
So I took myself down to the fair in town
On Independence Day...
Well, word gets around in a small, small town
They said he was a dangerous man
But Momma was proud, and she stood her ground
She knew she was on the losin' end
Some folks whispered, some folks talked
But everybody looked the other way
And when time ran out there was no one about
On Independence Day...
Let freedom ring
Let the white dove sing
Let the whole world know that today is the day of a reckoning
Let the weak be strong
Let the right be wrong
Roll the stone away
Let the guilty pay
It's Independence Day
Well, she lit up the sky that Fourth of July
By the time that the firemen come
They just put out the flames and took down some names
and sent me to the county home
Now I ain't sayin' it's right, or it's wrong
But maybe it's the only way
Talk about your revolution
It's Independence Day...
Let freedom ring
Let the white dove sing
Let the whole world know that today is the day of a reckoning
Let the weak be strong
Let the right be wrong
Roll the stone away
let the guilty pay
It's Independence Day
==============================
yeah, it is about a woman sick and tired of getting the shit beat out of her...
How very patriotic. That has pissed me off for a long time. I used to like the song to tell you the truth. And somehow it became patriotic? Since when is it patriotic to be put in a county home becuase your father beat your momma and momma killed herself and daddy?

Ok, Randi. Trying to pull people from the right to center by being very to the left (think of a tug of war) does not a whiner make.
I understand what she is saying, but if I bitch... it isn't becuase I am whining it is becuase to many people in the center are willing to just go along to get along, and when they do that the right just chips away a little more from moderates and liberals.
And Randi is FAR FAR from a moderate. I would not call what she says as whining, so it isn't fair to accuse people who say the same things as her as being whiners.

Iraq floats US pullout timetable
Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri Maliki has raised the prospect of setting a timetable for the withdrawal of American troops from Iraq.

I think it's a great idea! Who'd thunk it?

What bothers me most, to tell a truth is that my nephew loved watching him play. Sports should be sports.
Pop culture should be as well. The kid is 10. he loves the Yanks and A-rod. He doesn't need to know about his personal life.

What bothers me most, to tell a truth is that my nephew loved watching him play. Sports should be sports.
Pop culture should be as well. The kid is 10. he loves the Yanks and A-rod. He doesn't need to know about his personal life.
:kickcan: I hate that sports is the new hollywood sometimes.

Baseball players are called “players” for a reason. They’ve been known to change teams and switch hit, they hit, pitch and catch balls, and then there is the stuff the do on the field!

I am just sitting here, still stunned nay, aghast, that a professional baseball player is being accused of being unfaithful to his wife. It's astonishing; unfathomable!

I give you the great Wade Boggs, a married man with a girlfriend in each American League city. Mrs Boggs did file for deevorce.

You should see the coverage the NY Daily News and that other alleged "paper" The New York Post are giving it.

I would also like to add, after the nearly campaign crushing one-liner Hillary got off on Obama some months back, (that nearly lost him the election), McCain has stolen that line to now use on Obama, hoping to do the same. (View Ad #3)

Once it gets late, most of our bloggers turn in. It's down to just the night owls (and those still at work).

Rachel is definitely the best choice to fill-in for KO on Countdown.
And now, late night music video theater.
