At the time, the lawsuit must have seemed like an open-and-shut case. In August 2010, Arizona entrepreneurs Mark Haile and Michele Hammer each loaned $250,000 to Today's Health Care II, aka “THC,” a medical marijuana dispensary in Colorado Springs, Colorado. But in March 2011, THC defaulted on its loan, which meant that, according to the contract, the dispensary had to repay the principal loan at a default interest rate of 21 percent. When THC didn’t do so, the two lenders sued the business in Arizona Superior Court in order to enforce their agreement.

That didn’t happen.

From their factory in Ontario Canada, GGS Structures President, Leigh Coulter has announced the formation of a new division to help governmental agencies develop standards for cannabis cultivation. “While Colorado has done a tremendous job of showing the world that a legal, regulated, cannabis industry is socially viable and economically beneficial, the recent surge of pesticide problems has brought to light a significant gap in their regulatory standards for plant cultivation.” stated Ms. Coulter “As more countries around the world move towards developing a legal, regulated, cannabis industry, there is a clear and present need for knowledgable assistance in understanding how to build quality control at every stage of plant growth.”

Colorado leads the way in the marijuana business with states, countries and even Universities around the world looking at our program.  A group of Denver University (DU) students traveled to Uruguay as part of an international study program to examine the country’s cannabis culture and how it compares to Colorado.

It was a surprise for the students when they saw a glimpse of a marijuana grow cultivated by the Uruguay government.   “Wow…It was a room that looked like a field of marijuana plants. I’d never seen anything like that.” said Brittany Sandage.

The Institute of Psychiatry at King’s College London issued a press release on 27th November claiming that its latest study shows cannabis causes damage to the corpus callosum.  This was widely reported across the world and many publications extended what was already an inaccurate claim into saying that this “damage” was a cause of psychosis.

When marijuana was legalized in the District last year, many people rejoiced, but some with less smoking experience scratched their heads. “Weed is legal, great!” they might have mused. “But how do I grow it? Where do I find it? How do I smoke it?”

Just a few months ago, the answer to many of those questions was “just Google it,” or “I dunno man, go ask Adam at Capitol Hemp.” But the D.C. School of Mary Jane, a new educational business based in Columbia Heights, aims to change all that.

Rocky Mountain Organic MedicineLast month U.S. Postal Service officials in Portland, Oregon, announced that periodicals containing marijuana ads are "nonmailable." That came as a surprise to Oregon newspaper publishers, many of whom depend on the mail to deliver part of their print runs and some of whom sell space to cannabusinesses, which are legal under Oregon law. While publishers knew those businesses are still considered criminal enterprises under federal law, it never occurred to them that a single dispensary ad could make an entire issue untouchable by the USPS.
