<b><small><i><font face="Arial">"The President and his senior advisers
have concluded that their campaign to convince the American public that
Iran poses an imminent nuclear threat has failed (unlike a similar
campaign before the Iraq war), and that as a result there is not enough
popular support for a major bombing campaign. The second development is
that the White House has come to terms, in private, with the general
consensus of the American intelligence community that Iran is at least
five years away from obtaining a bomb. And, finally, there has been a
growing recognition in Washington and throughout the Middle East that
Iran is emerging as the geopolitical winner of the war in Iraq." </font></i></small></b></font></span><font

<i><small>"I remembered one morning when I discovered a cocoon in the
bark of a tree, just as the butterfly was making a hole in its case and
preparing to come out. I waited a while, but it was too long appearing
and I was impatient. I bent over it and breathed on it to warm it. I
warmed it as quickly as I could and the miracle began to happen before
my eyes, faster than life. The case opened, the butterfly started
slowly crawling out and I shall never forget my horror when I saw how
its wings were folded back and crumpled; the wretched butterfly tried
with its whole trembling body to unfold them. Bending over it, I tried
to help it with my breath. In vain. It needed to be hatched out
patiently and the unfolding of the wings should be a gradual process in
the sun. Now it was too late. My breath had forced the butterfly to
appear all crumpled, before its time. It struggled desperately and, a
few seconds later, died in the palm of my hand.</small></i></div>

<span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(153, 102, 51);">The price of
Dutch marijuana has increased 20 percent this year because the supply
is being curbed by a rise in police raids on hemp plantations.</span><br

<br style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(153, 102, 51);">
<span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(153, 102, 51);">The
effectiveness of one gram of Dutch-grown marijuana also has decreased
by 1.5 percent, according to an e-mailed statement from the Trimbos
Institute, a Dutch group that studies drug addiction and treatments.
The level of THC, the compound that gives cannabis its potency, fell to
16 percent from 17.5 percent last year.</span><br
style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(153, 102, 51);">
<br style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(153, 102, 51);">
<span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(153, 102, 51);">It is the
first time that the price of Dutch marijuana has risen since the
institute started keeping a record of hemp prices in 1999. One gram of
marijuana, grown in the Netherlands, costs 7.30 euros ($10.30)
currently.</span><br
style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(153, 102, 51);">
<br style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(153, 102, 51);">
<span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(153, 102, 51);">A decrease
in supply of Dutch hemp and higher prices could be causing some
marijuana producers to mix the cannabis with compounds such as sand and
glass pearls, the statement said. The Institute didn't find evidence
that hemp sold in Dutch coffee shops has been mixed with other
compounds.</span><br
style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(153, 102, 51);">
<br style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(153, 102, 51);">
<span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(153, 102, 51);">Imported
cannabis was 5.4 percent weaker than a year ago, according to the
statement. The price of imported marijuana also increased this year, by
about 40 cents per gram.</span><br
style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(153, 102, 51);">
<br style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(153, 102, 51);">
<span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(153, 102, 51);">Earlier this
year, police in Rotterdam said they'd shut down 600 indoor marijuana
farms since 2005. There are about 6,000 active producers in the city.</span><br
style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(153, 102, 51);">
<br style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(153, 102, 51);">
<span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(153, 102, 51);">Dutch
officials have stepped up raids on an estimated 40,000 indoor hemp
plantations, which cause two fires a month in Rotterdam by tapping into
power lines for lights that feed their crops. The crackdown is making
it harder to supply marijuana shops with the Super Skunk and Purple
Haze their customers crave in a country that decriminalized use of the
drug in 1976.</span><br>

authorities announced this week they're to stop arresting 'first time'
drug users when caught with 'personal use' quantities of any narcotic.<br>
<br>
Under the scheme, users will escape prosecution the first time they're
busted with up to 0.3 grams of heroin or cocaine, 3 ecstasy pills, 2
grams of opium and 15 grams (half of ounce) of pot, though their names
will be recorded.<br>
<br>
"The General Inspector prefers to dry up the swamp instead of killing
the mosquitoes one at a time," an unnamed local police chief told
Israeli newspaper Haaretz (explaining they're not targeting just
suppliers), "For most of those caught for the first-time, any contact
with the police creates fear," he added.<br>
<br>
Tel Aviv electro promoter/ DJ Ellyot welcomed the news, telling Skrufff
'any relaxing of drug laws is good news for Tel Aviv's nightlife. I
think the police have finally understood that arresting people for
having one E on them is just a waste of time."<br>
<br>
Ellyot said police raids on clubs are very rare in Israel already with
few people encountering police on the club scene.<br>
<br>
"And of course there are far more pressing issues to be dealt with in
our part of the world," she pointed out, "Like dealing with greedy
capitalists and ending the occupation of Palestine. I mean two separate
states- Israel and Palestine," she added. "I don't really care which
borders they finally agree to- as long as they do. I can't wait to use
my passport and rock Ramaalla," she said.<br>

<span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 0); font-weight: bold;">I am sorry,
again, that we have let you
down with your expenses payment. we have literally run out of
money. we are looking at where we can raise some and will happily
reimburse you when we can. the event lost over £60k which
has left us in a very difficult position.</span><br

<span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 0); font-weight: bold;">Sorry again,
I now have to accept that I shit on my mates (or the attendees that
refuse to pay shat on my mates) and I am responsible.<br>
I will not give up, but have to ask myself what is the solution to
these issues?</span><br>
