How do the smartest kids in school smoke weed and still manage to rank in the top 10? It's pretty interesting, I just wanna know why doesn't weed affect their memory. But it seems to do the opposite for them? Best Answer - Chosen by Voters First of all, weed isn't all that bad for you. Its villianized by society and the government because they need an excuse to keep it illegal. They wanna keep it illegal for political reasons and if your interested why, watch a documentary on it. I suggest watching "the union". Yes it does make your memory worse, but if your very smart to begin with, you should still do well. Marijuana use isn't that bad, but marijuana abuse can be. Smoking once in a while isn't bad for you, but if you do it twice a day, your memory will suffer. If your dedicated to do well in school, and that's a main priority of yours, you can smoke weed and still do well. I'm in my fourth year of college and im doing premed and I smoke once or twice a week and still do well. Just gotta have the right mindset. I'm not telling you to smoke, but just know that its no worse for you than alcohol. And its a lot better for you than cigarettes.

What is the difference between cigarette tobacco and pipe tobacco? I was at the store and seen two different types of tobacco. One bag said cigarette tobacco and another said pipe tobacco. I tried a pipe tobacco cigarette and it just seemed a little harsher than cigarette tobacco and the smell to. Ive also noticed that pipe tobacco is alot cheaper than cigarette tobacco. I smoke marlboro or usa gold sometimes and trying to get a tobacco close to them. Regular. Is their a brand of cig or pipe tobacco close to them? Best Answer - Chosen by Voters I have been in the tobacco industry for many years so I think I can help point out a few things.
Cigarette tobacco or rolling tobacco is fine cut and used to make self-made or hand-rolled cigarettes. Pipe tobacco, on the other hand, is more coarse and more moist and is used for pipe smoking.
Rolling tobaccos won't work on pipes as they are too fine. They won't allow enough air to flow through the pipe. Also they burn hotter and faster while pipe tobacco which is moist and coarse and are a heavier mix tend to burn more slowly making it ideal for pipe smoking.
Is it ok to take yasmin birth control and smoke? hi im 18 and have recently been prescribed yasmin birth control for my painful and irregular periods. i forgot to mention to my doctor that i smoke as she didnt ask me. ive been reading through the booklet and i read something about increased risk of blood clots if you are a smoker, how serious is this risk? i dont smoke heavily, between 2-5 cigarettes a day on average. should i switch to a different pill or is there not a high enough risk? thanks for your help. Best Answer - Chosen by Voters The doctor that prescribed Yazmin is a HACK and possibly a QUACK because Yasmin and Yaz are involved in major lawsuits right now. The BAYER pharmaceutical makes that junk and it is very dangerous and has caused all kinds of health problems for women. You need to find a real doctor that actually cares about your health.
The BAYER pharmaceutical company is NOT a CREDIBLE, MORAL company. Watch this video and see what they did to hemophiliacs around the world with their injectable they knew was tainted:
The truth is that ALL birth control pills affect your endocrine and that is a system of several organs in your body that is very complex and when you affect one of the organs in that system, you affect them all. It's one reason birth control pills cause you to gain weight because the thyroid is one of the organs in that system. The "feed back loops" that regulate functions in the body are affected. The so called "adjustment period" is your body defending itself from the damage it is doing. No one that is committed to giving or taking these pills is willing to face the truth. In fact, did you know that birth control pills contain less hormones now than they did for several years after they were approved by the FDA? Doesn't it seem odd that this fact was never widely publicized? They determined that breast cancer had increased due to the pill and made the changes. So, let's see, if you decrease the poison and it doesn't cause cancer, who's to say that other contributory factors won't also increase your chances of breast cancer that is now epidemic with 1 in 7 women getting breast cancer.
The adrenal glands are part of the endocrine system, as well as the pancreas. Does diabetes and bad menopausal problems ring any bells? No, you most likely won't find any so called "scientific study" that will back up this concept, but who are you going to believe? Doctors and drug companies that stand to make billions on this and that by the way, have no answers to why cancer by the year 2010 will be the number one killer in America over heart disease. And that statistic is due to how we have learned to keep people on life support drugs and give them "MAKE BELIEVE HEALTH." An interesting fact that makes me very concerned about what drug companies and the FDA are doing about this issue is that last year 10,000 to 20,000 max. people died from using illegal street drugs in the U.S. That sounds bad and our war on drugs is a total joke that is NOT winning that war. A few battles here and there, but the problem goes on and on. Last year, over 106,000 people died in hospitals in the U.S. from taking doctor prescribed medications that were FDA approved for the symptoms and correctly administered. That is almost 11 times the people dying from illegal drugs. Does that sound like a good system to you? Does that sound like we are waging war on the right problem? And that number are the people that died; just think of the ones that survived and were damaged by the drugs and still living as if they were on life support pills. I cannot put my trust in that system to look out for me in any way and people who do are paying the price each day.
Those symptoms you are having is your body trying to tell you something; I would listen very carefully to it. Your body has an innate intelligence that so called "modern" medicine does not.
There are many other methods of birth control that do NOT affect your body in a negative way. Remember, it's not just the symptoms you need to address, but what those symptoms are trying to tell you.
Is it illegal in the USA to buy Clove cigarettes online from Indonesia? After the United States ban on the selling of clove, and other flavored cigarettes (like Djarum) - is it still legal for them to be purchased, online, from Indonesia? Is the ban against ownership/purchasing, or against the stores in the US that could sell them to minors? If we have packs left over from the pre-ban period, are they still legal? Best Answer - Chosen by Voters Here is what I've been able to piece together about the flavored cigarette ban in H.R. 1256. This is not a definitive answer; as of yet, I can't find a clear answer from an authoritative source.
Nicotine or a specific combination of nicotine have not been scheduled in accordance with the Controlled Substances Act. (1) As I understand it, the FDA regulates the sale and importation of products, but in order to ban a food or drug entirely, it has to be scheduled in accordance with the CSA. The CSA is administered by the DEA, not the FDA. I can find no indication that a person is not allowed to possess or consume tobacco cigarettes with clove or other fruit flavorings. Currently, you can still purchase loose flavored tobacco, including clove infused tobacco, for rolling, pipe or hookah use. Accordingly, this shows that you can have a clove cigarette and smoke it.
That being said, here is the exact text from H.R. 1256 relating to flavored cigarettes. I am not an attorney, juror, or legislator, but I could not find one other section in the bill that went into further detail on what this text may mean.
‘(A) SPECIAL RULE FOR CIGARETTES- Beginning 3 months after the date of enactment of the Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act, a cigarette or any of its component parts (including the tobacco, filter, or paper) shall not contain, as a constituent (including a smoke constituent) or additive, an artificial or natural flavor (other than tobacco or menthol) or an herb or spice, including strawberry, grape, orange, clove, cinnamon, pineapple, vanilla, coconut, licorice, cocoa, chocolate, cherry, or coffee, that is a characterizing flavor of the tobacco product or tobacco smoke. Nothing in this subparagraph shall be construed to limit the Secretary’s authority to take action under this section or other sections of this Act applicable to menthol or any artificial or natural flavor, herb, or spice not specified in this subparagraph.' (2)
As far as the health risks of cloves versus traditional cigarettes, well, there isn't any difference. The only studies I have been able to find indicated that the higher the tar and nicotine levels, the higher the health risks. (3) These people are under the impression that many cloves have higher concentrations of tar and nicotine than traditional cigarettes commonly available in the US, however the kretek imported into the US had both reduced tar and nicotine levels of about (4). In example: (5)
Cloves:
Djarm Black Tar 25 mg Nicotine 1.6 mg
Djarm Black Slimz Tar 18 mg Nicotine 1.2 mg
Wismilak Diplomat Tar 35 mg Nicotine 1.7 mg
as imported in US Tar 10-12 mg Nicotine 1 mg (4)
Traditional Tobacco Cigarettes:
Marlboros Tar 13 mg Nicotine 1.0 mg
Lucky Strikes Tar 12 mg Nicotine 1.0 mg
Zins Mild (Netherlands) Tar 10 mg Nicotine 0.9 mg
Tali Jagat Filter (China) Tar 20 mg Nicotine 1.7 mg
But they didn't target cloves because of their health concerns, they targeted them for being flavors that kids may possibly like. The segment of the populace that smoked flavored cigarettes is so small that even if it doubled, you wouldn't save nearly enough to make a dent in the real numbers. See (6) and (7).
Lastly, to throw my two cents in. I like fruit loops, cocoa crispies and cereals with marshmallows. I like Belgian lambics and other beer that is made or flavored with fruit or fruit tasting additives. I like chocolate milk, whole milk, and I think ice cream is better with chocolate and strawberry sauce and a cherry on top. I also am a fan of those flavored condoms. Since my use of these products in my own home in no way affects any of you, I kindly ask that you mind your home while I mind mine.
Everyone is so willing to give up freedom to 'save even one life' and all I am remind of is all of the men who lined up to die so that we could have freedom in the first place. Why now must we give up freedom to save lives when we chose to give lives to gain it?
"We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness."
For me, I find some happiness sitting down after a good meal and smoking a clove, much in the way that our forefathers enjoyed a pipe after dinner.

Is smoking one cigarette while breastfeeding bad? I wanted to try a clove because there illegal now an I've never tried them. and I'm breastfeeding my 15 month old daughter still.

anyways, here--
Should a mother who smokes cigarettes breastfeed?
First of all, a mom who can't stop smoking should breastfeed. Breastfeeding provides many immunities that help your baby fight illness and can even help counteract some of the effects of cigarette smoke on your baby: for example, breastfeeding has been shown to decrease the negative effects of cigarette smoke on a baby's lungs. It's definitely better if breastfeeding moms not smoke, but if you can't stop or cut down, then it is better to smoke and breastfeed than to smoke and formula feed.
The more cigarettes that you smoke, the greater the health risks for you and your baby. If you can't stop smoking, or don't want to stop smoking, it's safer for your baby if you cut down on the number of cigarettes that you smoke.
eta: I should add, the problem with cigarette smoke and babies is the third hand smoke thing. if you're smoking, put on a jacket or change your shirt before you breast feed so that your baby is not breathing in third hand smoke. when your baby is breast feeding, he or she is not inhaling any smoke from your milk, know what I mean? it's more like there's the sort of chemicals in your milk that are in the cigarette, so your baby will digest those, rather than breathing them in (given that you change your clothes and prevent third hand smoke exposure). there's a difference between the lungs and the stomach -- not that digesting smokey breast milk is GOOD but your baby won't be breathing in the smoke. does that make sense? people think that if you smoke and breast feed it's like smoking around your baby and there's a difference. just to clarify.
cigarette smoke has about an hour and a half half-life, if I remember correctly. it takes about an hour and a half for it to get half way out of your breast milk, essentially. digesting tobacco and nicotine out of breast milk may possibly make your baby more colicky or make them have a stomach ache but it also might not have an effect on them. I am a one-or-two-a-day-smoker and I've never had any problems. I breast feed then smoke a cigarette if I want.

What's with all these kids smoking newports? I see like 14 year old kids walking around with newports.
I mean I've been smoking since I was 15 and even all my friends smoke newports.
I think they taste like crap. Best Answer - Chosen by Asker Funny you should ask..........I worked in a group home once, and Newports were INDEED the preferred currency.
It's like childrens first real cigarettes. Ya have the candy cigarettes.......and then ya have the bubble gum cigarettes, and then the next step, is the real deal........so you get some minty Newports.
Like, nicotine light.
Then maybe ya grow up a little, and be bold and brave and try a Marlboro Light or something,
The kids who want to be cool.........maybe go for a filter free Joe Camel.....(and usually gag on them)
Newports let them smoke.......but don't tax them tooooooooo much, just yet.
Did you know, back in the days of Cigarette advertising, the ads MOST OFTEN found near SCHOOLS, were Newports and Joe Camel?
This was no accident. Newports, because they were MILD, and Camels, because KIDS LIKED the cool Joe Camel character.
It was SPECIFICALLY created and GEARED towards children.
