213 cities on the Global Cannabis March May 2, 3,4!
WHITE HOUSE TO END DRUGS & TERROR ADSAlso Stops Study That Found Campaign Wasn't Working$150 million budget toward children's media as it fights for Congress to extend the program another five years.The Office of National Drug Control Policy will also cease a polarizing $8 million annual study that found the ads aimed at youth were not working and that pitted the drug office against the Partnership for a Drug-Free America.Youth-oriented media
Now, the office will direct 60% of its buys toward youth-oriented media -- the same percentage it had previously directed at adults -- and will focus on halting drug use among children already using rather than aim to deter youth from starting drugs. The drugs-and-terror ads will end in May.The drugs-and-terror campaign first broke five months after the Sept. 11 attacks, with two Super Bowl ads that cost the drug office more than $3 million to run. The spots centered on the idea that people who purchase drugs help fund terrorism. One ad showed a shopping list that includes an AK-47 rifle. "Where do terrorists get their money?" said the voice-over. "If you buy drugs, some of it might come from you." Later ads replaced "terrorism" with "terror," suggesting drug buys supported drug-cartel attacks on innocent civilians.Ogilvy & Mather controversy
The ads were controversial not only because of their message, but because of the way they were produced. While almost all White House Office of National Drug Control Policy creative comes from the Partnership, the terrorism ads were produced outside the Partnership by the drug office's agency, WPP Group's Ogilvy & Mather.The Partnership said the ads were off-strategy and refused to do any of the spots. Partnership Vice Chairman Allen Rosenshine, chairman-CEO of Omnicom Group's BBDO Worldwide, ripped the campaign in a congressional hearing.Spending cuts
The battle, coming to a drug office already wounded by complaints over Ogilvy's initial stewardship of the account, bolstered congressional critics who tried to cut spending dramatically. They eventually reduced it by about $25 million to about $150 million.Legislation to continue the program is expected to soon be proposed by a bipartisan group of senators. Reps. Mark Souder, R-Ind., chairman of the Government Reform panel, and Rob Portman, R-Ohio, said last week that it would likely include language limiting the drug office's ability to go outside the Partnership for creative and also language that could require the drug office to rebid the contract won last year by Ogilvy.*****!!!

Paul@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@Bill to legalise ganja for private use soon, says NicholsonJamaica ObserverSunday, March 30, 2003ATTORNEY General A J Nicholson said yesterday that legislation is now being prepared to give effect to the recommendation of a commission, which sat two years ago, for the decriminalisation of marijuana when in private use here.Nicholson did not say when a Bill will reach Parliament and neither did he give details of the drafting instructions, but stressed that decriminalising marijuana -- called ganja here -- will be within a limited scope."Yes, it will, for private use only," he told the Sunday Observer yesterday.Marijuana is widely used in Jamaica, and is said by Rastafarians to be holy sacrament. But the use of the drug is illegal, for which a person can be fined and, or, jailed.Additionally, the island is one of the hemisphere's leading exporters of marijuana to the United States, and the Americans have promoted eradication and interdiction efforts in the island.Earlier, in a speech to the Surrey Chapter of the Lay Magistrate's Association, Nicholson sought to draw a distinction between the historic use of marijuana in Jamaica and the country's more recent role as a trans-shipment point for cocaine and the crime and violence that has come in its wake."I am a 1942 model, which means I have been on planet earth for quite sometime and I know that it is only recently that we are having the kind of violent crimes that we are now experiencing," Nicholson told the lay magistrates. "So it couldn't be caused from ganja. The illegal trade in cocaine is what is tearing the heart out of Jamaica."The Jamaican authorities insist that the country's high level of violent crime is substantially driven by the drug trade, particularly cocaine, because of the high stakes associated with the business.US and Jamaican law enforcement officials estimate that up to 10 per cent of the cocaine in Colombia, between 100 and 120 tonnes a year, passes through Jamaica on its way to North America and Europe.In a speech prepared for delivery in Fort Lauderdale, Florida 10 days ago, the national security minister, Peter Phillips, noted that the cocaine transshipped through Jamaica had a street value of between US$3 billion and $3.6 billion, representing between 40 and 50 per cent of Jamaica's gross domestic product (GDP) for 2001."In terms of total merchandise trade for 2001, the value of the drug trade was estimated between 65 per cent and 78 per cent of total legitimate trade," Phillips said in his prepared text. "In other words, the drug trade is valued at more than three-quarters of all imports and exports for Jamaica in 2001."This business, which generated tremendous resources, promoted a demand for high-powered weaponry to protect itself during the transit of drugs through Jamaica.Clearly, marijuana doesn't carry nearly the same reputation in Jamaica and has substantial folk appeal.Nearly two years ago, a National Ganja Commission, appointed by Prime Minister P J Patterson, recommended the decriminalisation of the drug, which has deep cultural roots here.The committee, which was headed by University of the West Indies sociologist, Dr Barry Chevannes, also raised the possibility of the expansion of the use of ganja in pharmacology and in industry.For instance, in the late 1970s, two UWI researchers developed from marijuana a drug called Canasol for the treatment of glaucoma. Hemp, a type of marijuana plant has several industrial applications, including in the manufacture of rope, cloth and other products.At the same time, the Chevannes committee recommended that the state start an intensive education drive, especially among young people, to reduce the demand for the drug.They suggested, too, that the Government attempt to influence the international community to re-examine the status of marijuana and that the police increase their vigilance in destroying large ganja plantations and generally stem the trafficking of illegal drugs.^ ^^^ ^^^^^ ^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^ ^^^^^ ^^^ ^

It is 5:30 am and i have taken the weekend to think about how i should express my self regarding the Hearst 2003 Million Marijuana march .
1st " You have gotten my demande to rent the local sport palace ( Claude Larrose ) to have a Rock & Roll concert for 16 years old or older and as you know there is No Alcohol , No Smoking alowd of any kind , and NOT a demand for YOUR permition to protest the laws regarding the adult use of the cannabis plant for medical , industrial , spiritual and recreationnal purposes .
I'm sitting at the CPU and and i can not understand how you can judge some thing that you ALL dont know nothing of , the trouble that we , as sick Canadian had to go true to tell the federal gouvernement that this plant called POT was helping us all cope with the terrible illines that was inflicting us all , that we were not creminals and that we wanted them to acept and understand the life challenges that we were all going true .
I will not start the debate all over once more for HEARST Municipal counsel.
Marijuana , Cannabis is fully legal trueout Canada as medication , but are Federal Gouvernement is not able to put it on the pharmacies shelf because they dont have a big enough suplier .
And this year on May the 3rd 2003 Hearst citizen and activist WILL walk down the street as a worldwide legal protest regarding the adult use of the cannabis plant for ALL purposes .
Jesus and Terry Fox all started to walk alone and no one believed in them at first , No one tough they would or could achieve their objective .
Since a very young age i have experince the DRUG world , I had allways wonder .." WHY ME " but i was put into this path so that i would have the experince and the knowledge to see the differences once i'd be ill . Now i understand why this path was choosen without me knowing why at the time .
As one of the first legal Marijuana Medicinal user , I am proud of what i have become and what i represent to YOU all . I am not a creminal and i dont see my self as a bad influence and niether does all of my freinds .
Hearst , will celebrate their 1st annaul Million Marijuana March Saturday May the 3rd starting at 4:00pm , with or without the Municipal counsol's aprouval . This is a worldwide peacefull protest of all LAWS prohibiting the adult use of the cannabis plant for all purposes .

WHITE HOUSE DRUG CZAR LAUNCHES CAMPAIGN TO STOP DRUGGED DRIVING
PROBLEM IS WORSE THAN MOST REALIZE:
8 MILLION DRIVERS UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF DRUGS LAST YEAR
(Washington, D.C.)-John P. Walters, Director of National Drug Control Policy(ONDCP), today announced a White House collaborative effort to reduce drugged
driving on American roads. Director Walters was joined by representatives of
the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), the AAA
Foundation for Traffic Safety, and the family of a drugged driving victim, to
raise public awareness of the problem of drugged driving.
Director Walters said, "While the consequences of drunk driving have become
well known over the past 20 years, drugged driving has received relatively
limited attention. We have solid data regarding the prevalence and
seriousness of impaired driving. America already loses too many lives to
drivers who are under the influence of alcohol, we cannot allow a lack of
public awareness to contribute to the deaths of more innocent motorists."
Data indicate that drugged driving has become a significant public safety
hazard:
* According to NHTSA, illegal drugs are used by approximately 10 to 22
percent of drivers involved in all motor vehicle crashes
* The 2001 National Household Survey on Drug Abuse indicates that an
estimated eight million adults drove under the influence of an illicit drug
at some time in the past year
* The New England Journal of Medicine published results from a roadside
study of reckless drivers (not impaired by alcohol) in which 45 percent
tested positive for marijuana.* A Students Against Destructive Decisions (SADD) survey of middle and high
school students revealed that 68 percent of licensed teen drivers who use
drugs regularly reported that they also drive while under the influence of
illegal drugs
* More than half of the teens who reported using illegal drugs also
indicated that they were not concerned about riding with a driver who is
using illegal drugs
To increase awareness of the problem of drugged driving, ONDCP unveiled two
new television advertisements that will begin airing in January. ONDCP,
NHTSA, and AAA also announced their support of increased resources for stateand local law enforcement officers and prosecutors, including a model policy
that provides states a framework for drugged driving legislation, and
development of new technologies to identify drug-impaired drivers in the
field.
NHTSA, responsible for training more than 5,500 police officers in 35 states
as Drug Recognition Experts, announced that it is mobilizing a major
enforcement initiative during December, which is National Drugged and Drunk
Driving Prevention Month. Next month's activities, which will include
sobriety checkpoints and saturation patrols, mark the start of a year-long
effort by NHTSA to increase public awareness of the risks of drugged and
drunk driving.
Director Walters concluded, "Our national experience in reducing drunkdriving tells us that we can make a difference; when we apply technology,
enforcement, and education, we prevent this destructive behavior that takes
away too many innocent lives each year."

By MELISSA WESTTribune Staff WriterBUCHANAN -- The houses lining South Red Bud Trail have their share of patriotic symbols on display, from American flags fluttering in front yards to little yellow ribbons tied near a porch light.Amid the flags and ribbons, however, a simple but stark message of dissent stands out.Spray painted in bold, black letters on the second story of one Buchanan home on the 100 block of the street are the words "God Forgive America!"The residence belongs to 36-year-old Jay Statzer, who was inspired to post the missive when the ground war in Iraq began last month.Statzer characterized his three-word communiquZ as a reply to "God bless America" signs that have appeared everywhere from billboards and bumper stickers to a sign in a neighbor's yard down the road."I feel it's wrong to assume we're so blessed in this country and think that we're blameless for what happens in the Third World," said Statzer, who does not believe that Iraq poses a chemical or nuclear threat to the United States.He also considers his sign a "call out to all Americans of all faiths to recognize and learn about U.S. wrongdoings" and hopes Americans will take "ownership and responsibility" for any unjust acts it has perpetuated and "ask God for forgiveness for what our nation has done in our name."So far Statzer, who says he is hard to get in touch with, has not heard any local feedback to the message.Nearby resident Josh Simpson, 25, says that, while he supports U.S. military action against Saddam Hussein, he is not offended by Statzer's spray-painted opinion."People have the right to do what they want, but I don't agree with it," Simpson said. "I think it's kind of ridiculous. Anybody who spray paints on their house is kind of crazy."Activism is nothing new to Statzer, a South Bend native who grew up in a military family. His father, the late Gene Statzer, served in the U.S. Navy during and after World War II."Back when I was high-school age, I cared ... about what happened to the Native Americans," he recalled.It was during his time at Purdue University, where he studied electrical engineering, that Statzer became involved in activist work.Now Statzer, who says he keeps himself financially afloat through carpentry jobs, works as a full-time activist for Cures not Wars, a New-York-based organization that advocates the use of a consciousness-altering substance called ibogaine to cure drug addictions.The group also advocates legalizing marijuana and Statzer is organizing a 2003 Global March for Cannabis Liberation rally in South Bend on May 3."Basically, I've always been a truth seeker, just out of my spiritual conviction," said Statzer, who considers himself a Seventh-day Adventist. "When you compare the truth to what you're told by our government, you can't help but turn into an activist."Statzer professes skepticism of the government's version of the truth and believes that the CIA is responsible for training and financing leaders like Manuel Noriega, Saddam Hussein and Osama bin Laden."They go around the world creating enemies for us, whether it's a dictator or a terrorist," Statzer said of the U.S. government. "We have to accept our responsibility for this for not taking control of our own government."To Statzer, "a well-informed society is crucial to a democracy." He says that schools and the news media have failed to keep citizens informed of what politicians and bureaucrats have done in secret."People would rather go on believing lies because it's easy rather than do their homework and learn the truth," he said.His "God Forgive America" message is a call for people to seek the truth."When you seek the truth, you seek God because God is truth," Statzer said. "Anything that is against the truth is against God, and to know the truth and prefer to believe a lie is a sin."So people should learn the truth and repent."*************************BUSHWHACKED!!*****************************From: Mike Cane <mikecane01@...>

Is the secret to alcoholism and other addictions
locked up in hallucinogenic drugs?
By John Horgan
Photography by Jennifer Tzar
Even with several tablespoons of peyote in me, by
3 in the morning I'm fading. For almost six hours
I have been sitting in a tepee in the Navajo
Nation, the largest Indian reservation in theUnited States, with 20 Navajo men, women, and
children. They belong to the Native American
Church, which has 250,000 members nationwide.Everyone except the four children has eaten the
ground-up tops, or buttons, of peyote,
Lophophora williamsii. U.S. law classifies the
squat cactus and its primary active ingredient,
mescaline, as Schedule 1 substances, illegal to sell,
possess, or ingest. The law exempts members of
the Native American Church, who revere peyoteas a sacred medicine.
A barrel-chested man wearing a checked shirt
and cowboy boots stands over the cedarwood fire
and murmurs a prayer in Diné, the Navajo
language. As this roadman, or leader of the
service, sprinkles sage on the coals, my eyelids
close. I smell the sage and hear it hiss, and I seethe roiling geometric patterns, called form
constants, generated by compounds such as
mescaline. Then the balding white man on my right nudges me and tells me to keep
my eyes open. The Navajo might be offended, he whispers, if they think I havefallen asleep. Later, he shakes his head when I lean on an elbow to relieve the achein my back. Too casual, he says.
My guide to the etiquette of peyote ceremonies is John Halpern, a 34-year-old
psychiatrist from Harvard Medical School. For five years he has been coming here
to the Navajo Nation-27,000 square miles of sage-speckled desert stretching from
northern Arizona into New Mexico and Utah-to carry out a study of peyote.
Funded by the National Institute on Drug Abuse, the study probes members of the
Native American Church for deficits in memory and other cognitive functions.
Halpern has brought me here to help me understand him and his mission, which is
to provoke a reconsideration of the pros and cons of hallucinogenic drugs,commonly referred to as psychedelics.
Coined in 1956 from the Greek roots for "mind revealing," the term psychedelic
refers to a broad range of drugs that include peyote, LSD, and psilocybin, the
primary active ingredient in so-called magic mushrooms. Three decades ago the
federal government shut down most research on psychedelics, and The Journal of
the American Medical Association warned that they can cause permanent
"personality deterioration," even in previously healthy users. Halpern says this
blanket indictment is "alarmist" but agrees that there are documented dangers
associated with the recreational use of the drugs. When ingested recklessly in large
doses, psychedelics can generate harrowing short-term experiences, and they can
precipitate long-term psychopathology in those predisposed to mental illness.
Nonetheless, more than 20 million Americans have tried a psychedelic at least once,and 1.3 million are users of the drugs, by far the most popular of which is now
MDMA, or Ecstasy. Halpern undertook his peyote research in part to test persistent
fears that those who repeatedly use psychedelics run a high risk of brain damage.
While recognizing that psychedelics are toxic substances that should not be
treated lightly, Halpern thinks some of the drug compounds could have beneficial
uses. "There are medicines here," he says, that could prove to be "fundamentally
valuable." He hopes the mind-revealing power of psychedelics can be harnessed to
help alleviate the pain and suffering caused by two deadly diseases that have long
been notoriously resistant to treatment: alcoholism and addiction. More than 12million Americans abuse alcohol, and another 1 million abuse cocaine or heroin.
Halpern's conviction that psychedelics might help alcoholics and addicts is based
both on research by others and on his personal observations of members of the
Native American Church. Although Indians in central and northern Mexico, peyote's
natural habitat, have ingested it for spiritual purposes for thousands of years, only inthe last century did this practice spread to tribes throughout North America in the
form of rituals of the Native American Church.
All the subjects of Halpern's research are Navajo, who account for roughly 10percent of the church's membership and hold key leadership positions. Even thoughtribal leaders have banned alcohol from their reservation, alcoholism is still rampant.
For the Navajo and other tribes, rates of alcoholism are estimated to be more than
twice the national average. Those in the Native American Church say their medicine
helps keep them sober and healthy in body and mind, and Halpern suspects they areright.
He first took peyote himself five years ago, shortly after presenting his research
plan to leaders of the Native American Church. "It would have been supremely
insulting to them if I didn't try it. So I tried it." Halpern also hoped that firsthand
experience would help him understand how peyote ceremonies might benefit churchmembers. He checked beforehand with the U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency, which
told him that it would not object to peyote use by non-Indians for serious scientific,
educational, or journalistic purposes. Halpern has participated in five services in all,including the one we both attend, and these experiences have imbued him withrespect for the Indians and their faith. When I expressed curiosity about the
ceremonies, he said the best way to appreciate them is to participate in one. He
warned me that the ceremonies are in no way recreational or fun, and our session in
Arizona bears that out.
Like most Native American Church services, this one has been called for a
specific purpose-in this case, to help a wife and husband burdened with medical
and financial problems, all too common on the reservation. Except for Halpern and
me, everyone is a friend or relative of this couple; some have traveled hundreds of
miles to be here. The meeting lasts for 10 hours with only a single 10-minute break,and it unfolds in a rhythm of rituals: smoking tobacco rolled in corn husks; singing
hymns in Diné or other Native American languages to the pounding of a deerskin
drum; eating peyote and drinking peyote tea passed around in bowls, three times in
all.
There is a spellbinding beauty in the incantations of the roadman, in the sparks
spiraling up from the bed of coals toward the tepee's soot-blackened roof, in the
stoic expression of the elder who adds cedar logs to the fire and rakes the coals into
a half circle. But none of the worshippers seems lost in blissful aesthetic reveries. Far
from it. For much of the night, the mood is solemn, even anguished. Two people
vomit, including the wife. Both she and her husband sob as they confess their fears
and yearnings. So do others as they listen, offer prayers, or divulge their own
troubles-usually in Diné, but occasionally in English.The power of these ceremonies, Halpern tells me later, is only partly
pharmacological. After all, worshippers usually eat just a few tablespoons of peyote,
which amounts to less than 100 milligrams of mescaline-enough to induce a
stimulant effect but not full-fledged visions. Peyote, Halpern speculates, serves
primarily as an amplifier of emotions aroused by the ceremony's religious and
communal elements. He cannot prove this conjecture yet, nor can he say how or if
the putative benefits of these sessions might be achieved by non-Indians in more
conventional psychotherapeutic settings. "A lot more work needs to be done to
answer such questions," he says.
His creeping baldness notwithstanding, Halpern looks younger than his age. Hecan be brash too. During our weekend in Navajo country-where we visit a
substance-abuse clinic and meet a Native American Church leader as well as attend
the peyote session-he exults in displaying his knowledge of psychedelic chemistry
and his talent for mimicry. A nightclub owner once said his impressions were good
enough for a stage act, he boasts. (Actually he is good, especially at obscure sitcomcharacters like Colonel Klink's irritable commander in Hogan's Heroes: "Kleenk,
you EE-dee-ot!")
Halpern says he does have "an abrasive, sarcastic side." But he also has an
earnest, idealistic side that comes to the fore when he talks about his upbringing.Raised in a Jewish home in an affluent New York suburb, he was never particularlyreligious, but he inherited a passion for healing from his psychiatrist father and
psychologist mother. They convinced him that "medicine is the highest profession
you can have, because it's such a privilege to work with human beings and to heal
them."
He traces his interest in psychedelics to the early 1990s. Interning at a psychiatrichospital in Brooklyn, New York, he became frustrated that he could not offer better
treatments for alcoholic or drug-addicted patients. During a weekend at his parents'
home, he vented to a visiting family friend, Chunial Roy, an Indian-born psychiatristwho had settled in western Canada. Roy recalled that in the 1950s, he did a survey
of alcoholism among Indians in British Columbia and found low rates among
members of the Native American Church. Roy added that psychedelics such as LSD
had once been considered promising treatments for addiction and other disorders."I was so fascinated that I did all this research," says Halpern, who had nevertaken psychedelics and knew little of their history. He learned that LSD, mescaline,
and psilocybin, initially viewed as mimickers of the symptoms of mental illness, came
to be seen as potential treatments. From 1950 to the mid-1960s, journals published
more than 1,000 papers describing the treatment with psychedelics of 40,000
patients afflicted with alcoholism and various other disorders.
One early advocate of psychedelic therapy was William Wilson, known more
familiarly as Bill W., who founded Alcoholics Anonymous in 1935. After observing
alcoholics undergoing LSD treatment and taking the drug himself in 1956, Wilsonbecame convinced that it might benefit alcoholics by triggering religious experiences
like the one that had helped him stop drinking. The studies that instilled these hopes
in Wilson and others were largely anecdotal, lacking controls, or flawed; they were
nonetheless suggestive enough, Halpern thought, to merit follow-up investigations.
After Halpern began his residency training at Harvard Medical School in 1996,
he found a mentor: Harrison G. Pope Jr., a professor of psychiatry who had
investigated marijuana and other psychotropic drugs. Halpern and Pope have
coauthored several papers, notably one that considers whether hallucinogens cause
permanent neurocognitive damage, as some early critics claimed. "At present," they
wrote, "the literature tentatively suggests that there are few, if any, long-term
neuropsychological deficits attributable to hallucinogen use." They contended thatmost studies linking psychedelics to neurocognitive toxicity examined too few
subjects and did not control adequately for pre-existing mental illness or for
consumption of other, more toxic substances, such as amphetamines and alcohol.
It was to help resolve this lingering controversy that Halpern and Pope decided to
examine the Native American Church, which offered a large population that
consumes a psychedelic substance while avoiding other drugs and alcohol. Halpern
and Pope won grants for their project not only from the National Institute on Drug
Abuse but also from Harvard Medical School and two private foundations that
support research on psychedelics: the Multidisciplinary Association for PsychedelicStudies and the Heffter Research Institute (named after the German chemist who
isolated mescaline from peyote and discovered its psychoactive properties in the late
1800s).
Obtaining the cooperation of Native American Church officials turned out to be
more difficult. Many disliked the idea of having their faith scrutinized by a scientist,
especially a white one. After Halpern gave his pitch to one church gathering, a tribalelder harangued the crowd in Navajo for 20 minutes. Finally he turned to Halpern
and, angrily evoking the specter of Christopher Columbus, exclaimed: "1492!"
Another difficult moment came during his first peyote session. The roadman keptinsisting that Halpern take more peyote, until finally he vomited. Halpern felt thatthe roadman's implicit message was, "You want to learn about peyote? I'll teach you
about peyote."
Halpern persisted, coming to meetings bearing gifts of sweet grass and flat cedar,
aromatic herbs prized by Indians. "I was trying to show I took the trouble to learn
something about their culture." He trolled for volunteers for his research by puttingup ads in Laundromats and handing out flyers at a flea market in Gallup, New
Mexico. (The $100 promised to those who completed the study helped too.)
One church leader who persuaded others in the flock to trust Halpern was VictorJ. Clyde, vice president of the Native American Church of North America and an
elected state judge. During our trip to the Navajo Nation, Halpern and I visited
Clyde in Lukachukai, Arizona, where he lives with his wife and three children. Clyde
is compact and broad-shouldered, and he speaks with the tough self-assurance of aformer prosecutor.
When I asked what the Native American
Church stands to gain from Halpern's work,Clyde replied that scientific evidence of peyote's
safety should protect church members. Just last
year, the Pentagon cited concerns about
"flashbacks"-recurrences of a psychedelic's
effects long after it has vanished from the
body-in barring servicemen in the Native
American Church from sensitive nuclear
assignments. Didn't Clyde ever worry that
Halpern's research might turn up harmful effects?
Clyde eyed me momentarily before responding to
my question. If peyote was harmful, he said
firmly, his people would have noticed by now.
Clyde's belief that peyote does not harm
church members has been corroborated byHalpern's research. He estimates that he spoke to
1,000 Navajo before finding 210 who met his
criteria. The subjects fall into three categories:
Roughly one-third have taken peyote at least 100
times but have minimal exposure to other drugs
or alcohol; one-third are not church members and
have consumed little or no alcohol or drugs; and one-third are former alcoholics
who have been sober for at least three months.
Halpern and several research assistants administered a battery of tests-of
memory, IQ, reading ability, and other cognitive skills-to the three groups.
According to preliminary data that he has presented at conferences, church
members show no deficits compared with sober nonmembers and score significantly
better than the former alcoholics. Church members also report no flashbacks. With
his coauthor Pope, Halpern plans to publish his full results in a peer-reviewed journalthis summer, after presenting them to church leaders and Navajo health officials.
Halpern is already anticipating objections to his research-for example, that its
significance applies only to one substance used by one ethnic group. "You could in
one sense say mescaline is not the same as all these other compounds," he says. His
study nonetheless indicates that psychedelics as a class may not "burn out" the brain.
"If we find this group of people that, with these special conditions, aren't having
problems, that does have some relevance for the population at large."
Halpern also realizes that he may be accused of going native, of becoming so
close to his subjects that his objectivity has been compromised. To reduce the risk ofbias, he and Pope designed the study to be blind; those who scored the tests given to
the Navajo did not know to which group each subject belonged. Moreover, Halpern
did not participate in peyote ceremonies with any of his research subjects.
Perhaps the biggest weakness of his and Pope's research, Halpern acknowledges,
is that its design precluded testing to see whether peyote reduces the risk ofalcoholism. Halpern would like to see that issue addressed in a follow-up study. An
ideal partner for a trial could be the Na'nizhoozhi Center, a substance-abuse clinic in
Gallup whose clientele is almost entirely Native American. The center, founded adecade ago, offers conventional therapies and self-help programs, such as AlcoholicsAnonymous, as well as various traditional Indian healing ceremonies. These take
place in a yard behind the clinic that is large enough for several of the octagonal log
cabins known as hogans, sweat lodges, and a tepee for Native American Church
sessions. Although peyote is not given to patients during on-site church sessions,staff members encourage some clients to participate in regular peyote ceremonies
once they leave the clinic.
The clinic's records indicate that those who participate in Indian healing
ceremonies fare better than those who have participated in Alcoholics Anonymous.Halpern hopes that someday the clinic, perhaps with his help, will rigorously
compare the relapse rates of patients who participate in peyote ceremonies versus
other treatments. Ideally, to distinguish the effects of peyote per se from those of the
ceremony and of church membership, one group of alcoholics could receive peyotein a non-religious setting; another group could receive a placebo.Halpern would never recommend such a protocol, however, because it would
violate precepts of the Native American Church. "Peyote taken the wrong way, they
believe, is harmful," he explains. Out of respect for the church, Halpern would never
advocate testing peyote's effects on non-Indians, either. In this respect, he
acknowledges, his affection for church members does influence his role as a
researcher.
But there are many other compounds that can be explored as potential
treatments for non-Indians. In a 1996 paper, Halpern reviewed scores of studies of
the treatment of substance abuse with psychedelics and found tentative evidence thatthey reduce addicts' craving during a post-trip "afterglow" lasting a month or two.
This effect might be at least partially biochemical; LSD, mescaline, and psilocybin
are known to modulate neurotransmitters such as serotonin and dopamine, which
play a crucial role in the regulation of pleasure.
One possible candidate for psychedelic therapy would be dimethyltryptamine, or
DMT, the only psychedelic known to occur naturally in trace amounts in human
blood and brain tissue. DMT is the primary active ingredient of ayahuasca, a tea
made from two Amazonian plants. Like peyote, ayahuasca has been used for
centuries by Indians and now serves as a legal sacrament for several Brazilian
churches. Recent studies of Brazilian ayahuasca drinkers by Charles Grob, a
psychiatrist at the Harbor-UCLA Medical Center, and others suggest that ayahuasca
has no adverse neurocognitive effects. An advantage of DMT, Halpern says, is thatwhen injected its effects last less than an hour, and so it could be incorporated into
relatively short therapeutic sessions.
Halpern already has research experience with DMT. In 1994 he spent six weeks
helping Rick Strassman, a psychiatrist at the University of New Mexico, inject DMT
into volunteers to measure the drug's physiological effects. That study showed that
DMT is not necessarily benign. Twenty-five of Strassman's 60 subjects underwent
what Strassman defined as "adverse effects," ranging from hallucinations of
terrifying "aliens" to, in one case, a dangerous spike in blood pressure. Strassman's
concerns about these reactions contributed to his decision to end his study early.An even more controversial candidate for clinical testing is
3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine, more commonly known as MDMA or
Ecstasy. MDMA is sometimes called an empathogen rather than a psychedelic,
because its most striking effects are amplified feelings of empathy and diminished
anxiety. Advocates contend that MDMA has therapeutic potential, and several
researchers around the world are now administering the drug to patients withpost-traumatic stress and other disorders.
Critics point out that MDMA has rapidly become a drug of abuse, with almost
800,000 Americans believed to be users. The drug has been linked to fatal overdosesand brain damage; just last fall, a paper in Science reported that only a few doses ofMDMA caused neuropathy in monkeys. To help resolve questions about MDMA's
safety, Halpern and Pope have begun a study of young Midwesterners who claim to
take MDMA while shunning other drugs and alcohol.
All drugs pose certain risks, Halpern says. The question is whether the risks are
outweighed by the potential benefits for a population. For example, the benefits ofgiving MDMA to terminal cancer patients to help them cope with their anxiety
might outweigh the risks posed to their health. In the same way, DMT or some
other psychedelic might be worth giving to alcoholics and addicts who have failed torespond to other treatments.
Halpern also hopes to conduct a brain-imaging study to test his hypothesis that
psychedelics reduce craving in addicts by affecting their serotonin and dopamine
systems. "It sounds reductionistic," he says, "but a picture can be worth a thousand
words." An ideal collaborator would be Franz Vollenweider, a psychiatrist at theUniversity of Zurich, who with positron-emission tomography has measured neuralchanges induced in healthy volunteers by psilocybin and MDMA.
Some psychedelic effects have already been explained in relatively
straightforward neural terms. For example, human brain-imaging tests and
experiments on animals have shown that mescaline, LSD, and other psychedelics
boost the random discharge of neurons in the visual cortex. This neural excitation is
thought to induce form constants, the dynamic patterns I saw when I closed my
eyes under the influence of peyote, which are also generated by migraines, epileptic
seizures, and other brain disorders. But the effects of hallucinogens will never bereducible to neurochemistry alone, Halpern emphasizes. Decades of research have
confirmed the importance of "set and setting"-the prior expectations of users and
the context of their experience. The same compound can evoke psychotic paranoia,
psychological insight, or blissful communion, depending on whether it is consumed
as a party drug in a nightclub, a medicine in a psychiatrist's office, or a sacrament in
a tepee. In the same way, psychedelic treatments may produce different outcomes
depending on the setting.
The long-term challenge for researchers, Halpern says, is to determine which
settings can exploit the therapeutic potential of hallucinogens while reducing the risk
of adverse reactions. In the 1950s and 1960s, psychedelic therapy usually involved a
single patient and therapist. In many cases, Halpern believes, psychedelic therapy
might work best for couples, families, and friends. "If you take it by yourself, youmay have important insights," he says, "but you've lost this other opportunity to
learn and grow."
People might also respond to settings and
rituals designed to evoke religious sentiments.
Recently various scientists, notably Harold Koenig
at Duke University, have reported finding
correlations between religiosity-as reflected by
church attendance and other measures-and
resistance to depression. Ideally, Halpern says,
therapists should be able to choose among many
different settings to best serve a patient's needs.
One of his favorite proverbs is, "Many paths, one
mountain."
Halpern believes he has benefited from his
peyote sessions, albeit in ways difficult to quantifyor even describe. Borrowing the term for a
compound that boosts the effect of a
neurotransmitter, he speculates that peyote serves
as a "humility agonist," counteracting his
arrogance by instilling awe and reverence in him.
He acknowledges, however, that these emotions
might be less a function of the peyote than of the
ceremony of the Native American Church.
Reverence is certainly evident in Halpern's bearing throughout the session weattend together. Although plagued by chronic back pain, he sits straight-backed for
hour after hour on the $5 cushion he purchased earlier that day at Wal-Mart. Heintently watches every ritual, listens to every song. When the roadman askseveryone to pray for the husband and wife who are the meeting's focus, Halpern
chimes in loudly.
Especially early on, the ceremony seems impenetrably foreign, but its meaning
becomes more apparent as the night progresses. At one point the roadman, after
offering a long prayer in Diné, turns to the husband and wife and says in English:
"You must make more time in your lives for those who care about you." The rituals,I realize, are just expressions of gratitude for earth, fire, food, and other primordial
elements of existence. After each of us sips from a bowl of water passed around the
tepee, the roadman carefully pours some water on the dirt floor. Halpern says in myear, "Think what water means to these desert people."
As dawn approaches, the mood throughout the tepee brightens. Everyone smiles
as the husband and wife embrace and as their two children, who have been sleeping
since midnight, wake up blinking and yawning. The wife, coming back into the tepeeafter fetching a platter of sweet rolls, jokes and laughs with a friend. As we drinkcoffee and eat the rolls, she thanks us for having sat through this long night with her
and her family. "Thank you for letting us join you," Halpern replies, beaming at her,
"and may you and your family enjoy good health."
Driving out of the Navajo Nation that afternoon, Halpern seems exhilarated,
although he has not slept for 36 hours. He howls along with a CD of Native
American Church chants and does imitations of Bill Clinton and several Star Trek
characters. Outside Shiprock, New Mexico, his expression turns grim as we pass a
policeman giving a sobriety test to a wobbly young man. Neither peyote nor anyother medicine, Halpern realizes, can cure all those afflicted with alcoholism or
addiction. "We don't have magic pills," he says drily. If his research on psychedelics
yields therapies that can benefit just 10 or 15 percent of the millions struggling with
these disorders, he will be more than satisfied. "I'm trying very slowly," he says, "to
put all the pieces in place."
Experiments with People
John Halpern's peyote study is part of a revival of psychedelic research. At least a
half dozen prominent researchers are exploring the potential of using hallucinogens,
including:
Francisco Moreno, a psychiatrist at the University of Arizona College of
Medicine in Tucson, administers psilocybin, the primary active ingredient of
hallucinogenic mushrooms such as Psilocybe semilanceata, to 10 patients as an
experimental treatment for obsessive-compulsive disorder.
Pedro Sopelana Rodriguez, a psychiatrist at the Psychiatric Hospital of Madridin Spain, gives MDMA, or Ecstasy, to 29 women suffering from post-traumatic
stress disorder caused by sexual abuse.
Evgeny Krupitsky, a psychiatrist at the St. Petersburg Scientific Research
Center of Addictions and Psychopharmacology in Russia, treats alcoholics and
heroin addicts with ketamine, an anesthetic that at sub-anesthetic doses produces
out-of-body experiences. Krupitsky has reported positive results in his clinic and at
the Yale/West Haven VA Medical Center in Connecticut.
Deborah Mash, a neurologist at the University of Miami School of Medicine
who also works at a clinic in St. Kitts, West Indies, treats opiate and cocaine addictswith ibogaine, an extract of the West African shrub Tabernanthe iboga.
Charles Grob, a psychiatrist at the Harbor-UCLA Medical Center in Torrance,
California, plans to offer psilocybin to late-stage cancer patients as an experimentaltreatment for pain, anxiety, and depression.--------------------------------From: Gamma <gammalyte9000@...>

My information regarding taking any form of medication by rectum is far more
efficient than orally. If you take pills and medication orally there is
always possible damage to all the body parts they have to pass through to
get to the appropriate place in the body but if you take them rectally (hope
that is a proper word??) the ingredients pass into the body faster and with
far less damage to other organs and no you don't lose any benefits taking
medication that way,. In fact you should get more benefit from it.
I know that in France they are great believers in administering drugs by
rectum rather than orally and it seems to be a good way of administrating
medication.AlisonIF YOU WANT YR CONTACT ON THE NEW IBOGAINE POSTER, SET UP AN IBOGAINE DROP-IN CENTER TODAY!********************************************************************To get on the poster for the 2003 Global March for Cannabis Liberation, check yr contact info and add yr city to the List http://www.cures-not-wars.org/cities.htm , which right now consists of 214 cities :

Hello Dana.

Please note that some of the web address and email links there do not end
with a space, and therefore do not work right when clicked. Sometimes 2

Adding spaces after the problem links would solve the problem.
