Marijuana: How Does It Affect You?

Marijuana is one of the most abused drugs in the world. Marijuana is derived from the dried flowering tops, leaves, stems, and seeds of the Cannabis sativa (hemp) plant. Cannabis has been used for hundreds of years by humans, for fiber (hemp), seed oils, seed, and medical treatment. Marijuana contains around 400 chemicals, of which the most potent is the psychoactive (mind-altering) chemical called delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol, or THC for short and other related compounds.

How do people use marijuana? People smoke marijuana in hand-rolled cigarettes (joints) or in a dry pipe or a water pipe known as a “bong.”  Sometimes users open up cigars and remove the tobacco, replacing it with pot—called a “blunt.” To avoid inhaling smoke, some people are using vaporizers. Some vaporizers use a marijuana liquid extract. Some marijuana smokers are more creative and make homemade bongs or pipes out of objects such as fruit, soda bottles or cans, corn cobs, etc.people also use marijuana in recipes.

Marijuana Effects Some people think that since it is legal in some places, it must be safe. But your body doesn’t know a legal drug from an illegal drug. It only knows the effect the drug creates once you have taken it.

Marijuana also affects brain development. When people begin using marijuana as teenagers, the drug may reduce thinking, memory, and learning functions and affect how the brain builds connections between the areas necessary for these functions. Major side effects of Marijuana; -Drowsiness -Dizziness -Euphoria -Short-term memory loss -Shallow breathing -Red eyes and dilated pupils -Dry mouth -Increased appetite -Slowed reaction time (If you drive after using marijuana, your risk of being in a car accident more than doubles.)

What is medical marijuana?

Half of U.S. states and the District of Columbia have legalized medical marijuana in some form, and more are considering bills to do the same.( source ) Yet while many people are using marijuana, the FDA still hasn't approved it as a treatment. If you live in a state where medical marijuana is legal and your doctor thinks it would help, you’ll get a “marijuana card.” You will be put on a list that allows you to buy marijuana from an authorized seller, called a dispensary.

Medical marijuana uses the marijuana plant or chemicals in it to treat diseases or conditions. It's basically the same product as recreational marijuana, but it's taken for medical purposes.

Medical marijuana is used to treat a number of different conditions, including: -Cancer -Crohn's disease -Appetite loss -Multiple sclerosis -Muscle spasms -Nausea -Pain -Eating disorders such as anorexia -Alzheimer's disease -Glaucoma -Mental health conditions

But it’s not yet proven to help many of these conditions.

In the meantime,  many refugees are uncertain about their futures and many Americans are uncertain about their nation’s reputation for welcoming immigrants from all walks of life.  

Tumblr and the International Refugee Assistance Project have convened refugees, advocates and policy experts to discuss the potential impact of such laws and policies and test the assumptions on which they are based.

Ibrahim, aka Sham Hasan was born and raised in Baghdad, Iraq. He served as a linguist and cultural adviser to the U.S. Army in Iraq. He arrived to the US through the Special Immigrant Visa program in 2014. Sham is a LGBTQ and refugee rights advocate. Betsy Fisher is the Policy Director at the International Refugee Assistance Project at the Urban Justice Center. An attorney and passionate Michigan fan (go blue!), she advocates for refugees and for individuals at risk who worked for the United States in Iraq and Afghanistan. Bader is an LGBT refugee who fled from his home country and, after a long journey, now lives in Lebanon.

UPCOMING ELECTRIC CARS

The little growing popularity of electrical motors has been due to a variety of factors, inclusive of influential industry backers, government subsidies, and the glaring economic benefits. But, the generation is yet to take over the mainstream automobile enterprise as is was hoping via industry gamers and environmentalists alike. As the electrical automobile company booms and new technologies stay launched, the time has never been higher to spend money on this endeavor of the future.

Have a look at some of the vehicles coming to the marketplace within the next few years.

2017 Chevrolet Bolt EV

(200+ miles of range; base price $37,500 before incentives)

General Motors, is definitely going to launch in electric-car technology, going to take an aggressive position in offering battery-electric cars as well as its Volt plug-in hybrid. Longest range of Volt plug-in hybrid except for BMW i3 Rex, which only travels about 75 miles on gasoline once its battery is depleted. Chevy will equip the future Bolt EV with a 60-kwh lithium-ion battery that gives it a wide range rating of 200 or more miles, making it decisively the first mass-priced 200-mile electric car.

Tesla unveiled its Model 3 this year and aims to begin production by the end of 2017

Tesla has revealed the model 3, the vehicle that CEO Elon Musk hopes will take the electrical automobile to the masses. Its first mass marketplace, long-variety automobile on March 31, however, the car won't go into production till 2017. on the unveiling of the version 3, this nighttime at the enterprise's design studio in Hawthorne, California, Tesla CEO Elon Musk stated the automobile will deliver as a minimum 215 miles of the range beginning at just $35,000 — that's a bold claim, and a crucial one for Tesla to meet. Musk is "relatively assured" that deliveries will begin through the cease of 2017, and "you may not have the ability to shop for a higher automobile for $35,000, despite no alternatives." And it is going to be one of the safest vehicles in the world, in step with Musk.

The automobile has a starting variety of extra than 200 miles per charge and may cross shape zero to 60 miles consistent with hour in just six seconds. The automobile will fee $35,000 before incentives and may be about 20% smaller than the organization's version S. but, it could still seat 5 humans quite readily.

215 miles of range, plus supercharger help is preferred. like the version S, the version 3 will are available both rear-wheel force and all-wheel force versions, and there may be a fifteen-inch landscape touchscreen internal — an interesting trade from the 17-inch portrait touchscreen within the version S and X. Autopilot hardware is widespread, and all protection features will be lively automatically.— "conveniently is the critical component here," says Musk.

However, do not assume to search out one any time quickly. The model three isn't predicted to begin manufacturing until late 2017, more than 18 months from now. Tesla will luckily take your preorder for a modest $1,000 down fee. Tesla plans to greater than double the dimensions of its dealership and carrier network by means of the end of subsequent yr, to promote and contend with all these new automobiles.

017 Hyundai Ioniq Electric

(110 miles of range; on sale early in 2017; base price TBD)

Hyundai's Ioniq lineup is the primary car in the international to be provided with the selection of a hybrid-electric, battery-electric powered, or plug-in hybrid powertrain—however no traditional gasoline model.

The organization expects the Ioniq Hybrid to sell fine, however, the electric model might be released 2d, rapidly after the Hybrid lands in dealers at the end of the year. The Ioniq electric is likely to be rated at approximately a hundred and ten miles of variety from its 28-kwh battery p.c., that's just like that used in the Kia Soul EV, however, makes use of distinct lithium-ion cells.

The percent is mounted beneath the rear seat and load bay of the hatchback body, in place of under the floor pan like the ones of the Nissan Leaf and Tesla Model S. But Hyundai hinted that perhaps the percent may be extended into the tunnel among the two seats if more capability have been wanted.nonetheless, the Ioniq electric powered may have basically the same variety because the 2016 Leaf, in addition to the up to date BMW i3 and Ford consciousness electric.

2017 BMW i3

(100-plus miles of range projected; on sale Sept 2016 or later; base price TBD)

BMW has been remarkably close-mouthed approximately the mid-cycle replace to its innovative i3 electric and variety-prolonged hatchback.

apart from an extremely garbled article ultimate November quoting HaraldKrüger--the corporation's CEO--there's been little posted about a variety boom expected to take the 2017 i3 over an EPA score of one hundred miles.but manufacturing of the new edition is rumored to begin in Germany in July, meaning that the first motors need to attain sellers in possibly September, with a national rollout over the fall.

modern inventories of this year's BMW i3 are low, and income to date have fallen extensively, indicating that BMW is cautiously managing the wind-down of the older model.That ought to, in theory, prevent it having to position many hundreds of dollars in incentives on the remaining 2016 models as soon as information of the longer variety 2017 variations breaks.

The longer-variety battery is anticipated to be used in each the battery-electric i3 (now rated at 81 miles of range) and the range-extended model (72 miles) that still has a small two-cylinder fuel engine powering a generator.The large question is whether BMW will make the brand new p.c. Retrofittable to older i3 variations, offering something of an improve down the street as % capacities decline.

2017 Ford Focus Electric

(100+ miles of range; on sale end of 2016 or early 2017; base price TBD)

Finally, the Ford Focus electric powered gets a brand new and longer-range battery percent. for the 2017 version 12 months, as discovered out overdue closing yr by its maker.

Contemporary electric powered version of the focal point hatchback has one of the lowest ranges of any electric powered vehicle offered (definitely 73 miles) and no capability for DC speedy charging. The 2017 version is predicted to be rated at one hundred miles or greater of variety. Ford has additionally devoted to providing the functionality of rapid-charging thru a mixed Charging gadget (CCS) socket to be presented at the updated cognizance electric. past that, little is known about the up to date recognition electric. However, it's far broadly predicted to continue as a low-quantity, restricted-availability compliance automobile. Any two-hundred-mile electric Ford will likely wait until at the least 2019 or 2020, while the corporation may also introduce a dedicated automobile referred to as the version E, together with a battery-electric version in addition to hybrid and plug-in hybrid variations.
