Marijuana Use Studies - A History, with Ethan Russo, MD At Second Clinical Cannabis Therapeutics Conference in Portland, OR (2002), Dr. Ethan Russo recounts major studies on the use of marijuana by different populations. Beginning with the India Hemp Drugs Commission in 1893, Dr. Russo reports that every study came to basically the same conclusion - Society has no cause for concern regarding the effects of Cannabis use on health or crime, and in fact, it has many positives - like medicinal value, spiritual traditions and productivity. Other studies mentioned: * Panama Canal Zone Army Study (1930) * La Guardia Report ( 1943) * Shaffer Commission (1972), with data from Greece, Costa Rica, Jamaica and America. * N.Y. Academy of Sciences (1976) * and other N.I.D.A. investigations. Dr. Russo cites a great reference book for further study: "Marijuana Myths; Marijuana Facts", by Lynn Zimmer and Dr. John Morgan. Dr. Russo also debunks the myth that today's marijuana is stronger than 1970's marijuana. Conference hosted by Patients Out of Time. DVDs are available at: http://www.medicalcannabis.com This video is part of a report on a Chronic Cannabis Use Study that Dr. Russo conducted on patients supplied legal marijuana by the U.S. government.Watch the entire presentation at: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-9112662989507508748 Tags: medical cannabis marijuana ganja pot hashish drugs potency THC alternative medicine motivation |

Interdisciplinary Studies of Open Source Software (OSS) Projects Google Tech Talks February, 25 2008 ABSTRACT We all love to hate large software systems. They are hard to build, hard to evolve, and don't work very well. Why is this? A lot of reasons, some social, some technical, and some socio-technical. We believe that OSS provides an excellent source of data to test hypotheses about the factors that affect important phenomena/outcomes in software projects. Our group at UC Davis, comprising bio-informaticians, organizational behaviourists, physicists, and software engineers, is using a range of different approaches to the analyze the veritable torrents of data pouring out of open source projects to understand how things work in OSS, and what tools and techniques can help. One important issue is IMMIGRATION: how do new people join projects, and how can we help the difficult intellectual and social challenges they face. We present two results: 1.a) Can we build "recommender" tools that help programmers deal with "information overload" by helping them focus their attention? 1.b) Such tools have always been evaluated with user studies. Can we do something more quantitative? 2) What are the factors influencing immigration of new developers in Open source projects? Joint work with: V. Filkov, A. Swaminathan, G. Hsu, and students C. Bird, Z. Saul, and A. Gourley We gratefully acknowledge support from NSF (Science of Design and Human and Social Dynamics Programs), the IBM Faculty Fellowship Program, and the GrammaTech and SciTools corporations. Speaker: Prem Devanbu Prem Devanbu is Professor of Computer Science at UC Davis, he joined UC Davis after almost 20 years in Industry, including 17 years at AT Bell Labs and its various offshoots. He received his undergraduate degree in Electrical Engineering (Medium Current) from IIT Chennai, India, and his M.S., and Ph.D from Rutgers University in Piscataway, NJ.

Oread Disability Studies Section Ribbon Cutting Ribbon cutting for disability-studies book section at Oread Books set for April 6 Life Span Institute doctoral student Dot Nary always thought that there should be a disability studies section in the Oread Bookstore in the Kansas Union. She found that Lisa Eitner, general book supervisor at Oread Books, was enthusiastic about the idea. The dedication of a section for books on disability studies and the disability rights movement will be 2 to 4 p.m. Thursday, April 6, in Oread Books in the Kansas Union on the University of Kansas campus in Lawrence. A brief program at 2:30 p.m. will feature a ribbon cutting, speakers, a literature table and door prizes. Fifteen KU departments and organizations, including the Life Span Institute and several other Life Span affiliated centers, are co-sponsoring the event, which is free and open to the public. Typically, bookstores designate sections devoted to books on group movements and issues, such as women and racial minorities, but it is less common for books on disability to be shelved together. "It is important that we recognize the importance of the disability rights movement and of disability studies as an area of scholarship. This recognition can serve to promote greater awareness of the contemporary experience of disability in society and contribute to social change," said Dot Nary, doctoral student in applied behavioral psychology and co-coordinator of the event. April 6 was chosen for the ribbon cutting to honor an event now considered by many to be the political coming-of-age of the disability rights movement. During the first week of April in 1977, people with disabilities began a 25-day sit-in at the federal building in San Francisco, the longest such event ever held in a U.S. federal building. A group of 120 activists with a variety of disabilities protested the fact that regulations to implement Section 504 of the 1973 Rehabilitation Act had not yet been issued, thereby delaying discrimination remedies guaranteed by this federal law. Their protest was successful as 504 regulations were signed into law on April 28, 1977, without proposed changes that would have significantly weakened this landmark legislation. Speakers at the event will include Kathryn Nemeth Tuttle, associate vice provost for Student Success; Glen White, professor of applied behavioral science, who teaches an undergraduate course on independent living for people with disabilities; and a representative of AbleHawks, a campus group for KU students with disabilities.

Business Case-Studies, Models and Design Principles Dr. J. Sairamesh (Ramesh), Managing Partner at 360Fresh Inc. In this talk I will cover Service ValueNetworks that have emerged in various Industries (e.g. Manufacturing, Pharma, HealthCare and others) in various forms and shapes over the last decade. The Service ecosystems supporting such value networks are complex and ad-hoc and have varying risk criteria, interconnectivity and risk measurements when compared to more traditional supply-chains and value-chains. Value networks as a research area represent a novel approach to modeling complex enterprise relationships from the perspective of value creation and sharing. This talk addresses three major challenges of value network-driven enterprise analysis: (1) unifying the business knowledge of multiple enterprises and their diverse and conflicting objectives in the value network, (2) sensing the value network and processes through systems design, and 3) analyzing the value offered by multiple service entities in the network based on common goals and metrics. Biography: Dr. J. Sairamesh (Ramesh) is currently a Managing Partner at 360Fresh Inc. Previously he was a Manager and Program Leader for Business Solutions and Manufacturing Quality Research at IBM Watson Research, New York. He was one of the functional architects for IBM's e-business and e-Marketplace products. At IBM, from 2001 to 2007, he helped drive the vision and strategy for business solutions on value-chain management, warranty and enterprise quality in manufacturing (automotive) for IBM. He led a team on early warning solutions, services middleware and end-to-end quality technologies. He has helped incubate and drive three commercial business solutions for IBM's customers in the areas of Dealer-CRM, Early Warning for Warranty and Supply-Chain Quality. He has numerous US Patents and over 50 research publications. He has won three outstanding innovation awards and a research division award for his eCommerce and Business Solutions work at IBM. He received his M.S., M. Phil.(1992), and Ph.D (1996) from EE and CS at Columbia University. Tags: CITRIS UCBerkeley Research Education Industry business knowledge |

The Center for Chinese Studies at 50: Past, Present, and Future Established in 1957 with funding from the Ford Foundation and the State of California, the Center's early mission was to coordinate and support the study of contemporary China on the Berkeley campus. Over the last 50 years, the Center has evolved into one of the most active research centers at Berkeley, supporting research and teaching on all aspects of Chinese culture and civilization. In the early 1960's, a contemporary-China reading room was established at the Center, which has since become known as the the Center for Chinese Studies Library, that has grown to become one of the premier research collections on contemporary mainland Chinese affairs in the United States. This roundtable presentation features: Bob Scalapino, Professor Emeritus, Political Science, UCB Lowell Dittmer, Political Science, UCB Joyce Kallgren, Political Science, UC Davis David Keightley, Professor Emeritus, History, UCB Tom Gold, Associate Professor, Sociology, UCB Wen-hsin Yeh, Professor, History, UCB Liu Xin, Associate Professor, Anthropology Kevin O'Brien, Professor, Political Science Annie Chang, Former Head Librarian, CCSL Tags: uc berkeley ucberkeley cal webcast education international asia asian history |

News@Northwestern - Herskovits Library of African Studies 80 years ago, a Northwestern University anthropology professor realized that no one was systematically collecting materials that documented the history and culture of Africa. Today, the Melville J. Herskovits Library of African Studies at Northwestern houses the largest collection of African-related materials in existence. Scholars come from all over the world, even Africa, to sift through its treasures. Northwestern University regularly produces News@Northwestern, a television news magazine, in conjunction with Hess/Hoffman Productions of Chicago.

BOB LARSON STUDIES WHAT IS THE DEVIL? (307) What is the nature of Satan & how does he operate? They have messed with people's food supply, first, making most of us dependent on 'cheap' food so we don't grow our own, then, they control the food, filling it with contaminants & by creating inflation making it more & more expensive. They want people dependent on the system so they can take control over us -- but the opposite is what we should do. Instead of leaving our land & farms, we should go back to them, grow gardens & learn how people survived hundreds of years ago -- it is coming to that -- there will be famine for EVERYONE if they are not stopped. As it is now there is enough food, resources, for every man, woman, child & animal but this is a WAR OF CONTROL AGAINST THE PEOPLE so resources are hoarded at the top, the people & animals are not provided for, in fact, it is a conspiracy to deprive us of life, liberty & the pursuit of happiness, making us dependent on the system they control is an important part of their plan. Go back to the land! Grow your own organic food -- get a cow, learn to make yogurt, butter & cheese (I know how.) Learn to preserve, pickle, dry, & store food. Keep fowl for eggs -- I have organic eggs every day. Think now what will happen when they mess up our monetary system, be ready for yourself & your progeny, at least have a plan B by owning some land! (Yes, they will try to take away our land, herd us into cities, etc., if they keep doing what they are doing it will be increasingly harder for us & they are only 13 families against 6 BILLION people!...We must keep our faith in God's might & power but get ready for Whatever. FOUR HORSEMEN OF THE APOCALYPSE, ANTICHRIST, ANTI-MOTHER, ILLUMINATI, SHADOW GOVT. DID ALL THE TERRORISM THEMSELVES, WAR, FAMINE. Satan for some reason started, in our era, with the Indigenous people, Indians, Aborigines, non white races, black people for the most part. We have seen the oppression, the rounding up, the slavery, the genocide, the forced sterilization, the soul numbing hunger & poverty -- now it's our turn, the whites will experience all the same. Satan will use the whites to oppress others, but in the end many, many of them will also be oppressed? Who will be left? Rasa is calling women to get up & speak up, where are they? Why is it mostly men? It's time to get out of the broom closet & fight before the next Inquisition & Holocaust hits. Study oppression now if you want to know what's coming to us, the ones that were always safe. RASA SPEAKS ABOUT MICROCHIP & HOW SATAN HARMED THE HUMAN RACE THROUGH RELATIONSHIP DESTRUCTION. THE MOTHER/CHILD BOND SHOULD NOT BE MESSED WITH -- SATAN HAS BROKEN THEM APART WITH EARLY WEANING, DAY CARE CENTERS (KIDS SHOULD BE IN EXTENDED MATRIARCHAL CLANS) & MALE AUTHORITY THAT DICTATES BOTTLE FEEDING, VACCINES==ANY AUTHORITY AWAY FROM MOTHER/GRANDMA IS WRONG. (PATRIARCHAL MEDICAL SCIENE IS SATAN-BASED & MOSTLY IN THE HANDS OF MALES WHO ARE MIND CONTROLLED PAWNS, IT MUST BE AVOIDED AT ALL COSTS.)
