He survived the trailer park. He survived the streets. But now Jace is in the big leagues, and the price of failure is a shallow grave in the Humboldt hills.Jace is twenty years old and sitting on a pile of cash earned through blood and paranoia. The game has changed. A hundred-thousand-dollar contract from a polished dispensary owner seems like a golden ticket, the one big score that will get him out for good. The deal is simple: deliver fifty pounds of premium weed in three months. But in the ruthless world of Northern California's black market, simple deals are for suckers and dead men.To meet an impossible deadline, Jace must move his operation from a backyard shed to the lawless, unforgiving mountains, where corporate growers patrol their stolen land with rifles and a quiet, professional menace. Forced to assemble a new crew of desperate, untrustworthy men, Jace quickly learns that the greatest threat isn't the competition—it's the vipers he's invited into his own camp.Betrayed from within and hunted by ruthless rivals, Jace is pushed to a new level of savagery. But as he fights to hold his fledgling empire together, he discovers the horrifying truth: the dispensary owner is just a frontman. The real players are silent partners hiding in plain sight—powerful political figures who view Jace not as a supplier, but as a disposable asset in their portfolio. They don't care about the weed. They care about plausible deniability. And Jace is the last loose end.A worthy successor to the gritty realism of California Sober, Weed is a masterclass in tension and pace. Fans of Don Winslow and Dennis Lehane will be captivated by this raw, unfiltered descent into a world where the only line between predator and prey is a loaded gun and a willingness to pull the trigger first.This is Book 2 of the unforgettable Jace Ryland series. There is no redemption here. There is only survival, and the cold calculus of what a man will become to stay alive.

Humans have used cannabis for thousands of years, since Neolithic peoples sought out its medicinal benefits. But for the past century, its use has been largely criminalized. Stigma around cannabis has made it difficult for people of all ages to get straightforward answers about how to minimize health risks related to cannabis consumption or to understand how the plant has shaped and continues to shape society today.In Weed: Cannabis Culture in the Americas, culture writer Caitlin Donohue crafts a comprehensive and thought-provoking review of cannabis in the Western Hemisphere. Donohue’s investigation spans from Vancouver, Canada, to Buenos Aires, Argentina, interviewing medical researchers, educators, activists, artists, business leaders, and other experts to explore the long relationship between cannabis and the human race, its almost universal prohibition in the twentieth century, and modern efforts to legalize the much-maligned plant in all its forms.

Am I of the growing world, bound to the everlasting root, or am I simply a red-blooded man, destined to die? -Weed The seductive central character from the internationally acclaimed Poison Diaries, Weed, re-awakens in this book to a world where he must try to do good and learn from his allies in the plant world. But will this half-man, half-plant creature's desire for revenge weaken him, leading him to use the potency of his plant knowledge to do evil as well as good? Powered by his connection to both healing and vicious plant life such as Belladonna, Hemlock, and Cannabis, Weed struggles against time and the temptations of the seductive women he meets on his journeys, traveling from his home at Alnwick Castle in Northumberland to Lindisfarne, London and the island of Anglesey in an adventure of love, betrayal, murder and salvation. Weed was conceived by Jane Northumberland – The Duchess of Northumberland – creator of the Poison Garden at Alnwick Castle and author of The Little Book of Poisons, Potions and Aphrodisiacs. Weed is brilliantly evoked here by Hugh Sington for the legions of fans worldwide who have been anxiously awaiting his return – now Weed is poised to rejoin the mortal world...

Hemp, Cannabis sativa, is one of the world's oldest sources of food and medicine, with a history that dates back ten thousand years. It relieves glaucoma, epilepsy, migraines, insomnia, asthma, the nausea associated with AIDS and chemotherapy, and a host of other conditions. It was once a staple in every American medicine cabinet, but because hemp is the plant from which marijuana is derived, it has been unavailable to consumers until recently. Now products made from imported hempseed are sold by stores and mail-order companies across the United States to satisfy a growing demand. Hemp for Health reveals the developments that have returned this ancient plant to the forefront of health and nutrition and that have doctors calling for its legalization. The author provides everything from recipes using hempseed, and an analysis of cannabis's therapeutic effect on the nervous system, to current information on bills that are currently moving through several state legislatures to legalize domestic hemp production .

Societal opinion about the drug has dramatically swayed over the years, from viewing it as a grave danger to society in the 1930s film Reefer Madness, to a harmless recreational high in the ’60s, to an addictive substance and gateway to such “hard” drugs as heroin today. The myths and misinformation about marijuana have only multiplied over the years as the controversy over legalization and medical marijuana grows.A nationally recognized clinical expert and leading researcher on marijuana, Kevin P. Hill provides a comprehensive guide to understanding the drug in Marijuana: The Unbiased Truth about the World’s Most Popular Weed. Through research-based historical, scientific, and medical information, Hill will help you sort through what you hear on the streets and in the media and cut straight to the facts. Whether you’re a parent concerned about your child’s use, someone with an illness considering medical marijuana as a treatment option, a user who has questions about its effect on your health, or if you’re just trying to make up your mind about legalization, this book will give you the most current and unbiased information you need to make informed decisions about marijuana.

Weeds and Science Technology addresses topics that include management of weeds, agricultural, aquatic, Technology for integrated weed management and weed use tools. The technological revolutions in weed science are characterized by the use of chemical weed control methods. A weed generally implies a plant that is considered by the user of the term to be a nuisance, and normally occurring disturbed environments include dunes and other windswept areas with shifting soil alluvial flood plains, river banks and deltas, and areas that are often burned Since human agricultural practices often mimic these natural environments where weedy species have evolved, weeds have adapted to grow and proliferate in human-disturbed areas such as agricultural fields, lawns, roadsides, and construction sites the weedy nature of these species often gives them an advantage over more desirable crop species because they often grow quickly and reproduce quickly, have seeds that persist in the soil seed bank for many years of have short-life spans with multiple generations in the same growing season. It is intended that the book will prove to be useful in not only teaching the weed science courses but also in revamping and development of need-course curriculum.

For those tied to the western landscape who wonder whether we might find redemption in the story of its water during a time of increasing climate extremes, a based-on-true-events tale of family farmers fighting to save the land they steward.Inspired by true events, this Chinatown-meets–The Grapes of Wrath novel tells the story of California’s Sacramento Delta farmers facing off against agribusiness owners over the massive water tunnel(s) the state plans to build under hundreds of thousands of acres of prime Delta farmland. Winter 2022-’23 inundated California with as much as three times the average rain and snowfall and pulled the state out of one of its biggest droughts in recorded history. But the truth is that the American West, from the Oregon border down to Mexico, is prone to drought—and in California, the biggest battle for water takes place in the Great Central Valley, where south-of-Delta agribusiness controls every stream feeding into the Sacramento and San Joaquin Rivers. The protagonists of More Than Any River are the family farmers fighting for the Delta, and the antagonist is the big agribusiness controlling its water—but ultimately, the Great Central Valley itself emerges as the central character in this gripping tale of divisive land politics and high stakes.

How to Weed Your Attic: Getting Rid of Junk without Destroying History provides answers to the question: when someone dies or it's time to move --- or just clean out the attic, garage, or basement, what papers and other things should we save for the sake of history and what can we safely toss? After reading this clearly written book by a retired archivist and a retired museum curator, you can comfortably clean out your attic – or office, garage, basement, cupboards – with confidence that you're not tossing out historically valuable (or invaluable) things, and that you will not ask your local museum to take things that really belong in a thrift store, junk yard, or recycle center. The book first describes how to identify historically important documents and artifacts. The authors explain a few simple rules: 1) a complete or long collection has more value than a partial one; 2) emotive material provides a richer picture than factual material; 3) unique usually has more value than mass produced; 4) documents and objects carry more information than they intend to; and 5) a 25-year rule exists without our consciously recognizing it. They then apply the rules and assess the probable historical value of four different types of materials: mass produced (from books to vehicles), individually created (from art work to toys), business materials (from governance documents to uniforms), and commemorative materials (from awards to wedding dresses). The book includes a brief description of the basics for preserving materials the reader wants to keep and references sources for more detail. It also recognizes that the reader may not want to keep stuff that clearly has historical value. For those readers, the authors describe how to donate materials to a cultural repository. In broad strokes, they explain how repositories differ, what the repository will want to know about the stuff you're offering, where an appraiser and/or tax advisor fits into the process, and what the reader can expect the repository to do and not do. Finally, the book addresses unexpected issues that may arise around questions of legal ownership and privacy. Throughout the book, the authors illustrate their points using photographs and vignettes.

Legal marijuana is one of the country’s fastest growing industries and after a few years since legalization, Vegas has created a marijuana monument that no other jurisdiction has ever imagined—not Silicon Valley, Bangkok, or Barcelona. Not even Amsterdam. Sin City is already home to the world’s largest weed stores. It’s also the only place on the planet where people can pick up cannabis at a drive-thru, as if picking up fast food. A one-of-a-kind marijuana museum and a weed-entertainment mega-center are further evidence that Vegas is just getting started as the Cannabis Capital of the World. Weed and Loathing in Las Vegas is a fun, colorful, and fast read that explores Sin City’s goal of becoming “Amsterdam on steroids.” It’s also brutally honest as it spotlights the shady politics, regulatory corruption, casino clout, anointed players, and moneybags behind the new billion-dollar business. Weed and Loathing blows away the pot smoke that has, until now, concealed and distorted the cannabis culture of Las Vegas.

"I don't read Doonesbury. He glorifies drugs." —Former White House Press Secretary Marlin Fitzwater   Welcome to the age of pivots. Two centuries after the Founding Fathers signed off on happiness, Zonker Harris and nephew Zipper pull up stakes and head west in hot pursuit. The dream? Setting up a major grow facility outside Boulder, Colorado, and becoming bajillionaire producers of "artisanal" marijuana. For Zonk, it's the crowning reset of a career that's ranged from babysitting to waiting tables. For Walden-grad Zip, it's a way to confront $600,000 in student loans.   Elsewhere in Free Agent America, newlyweds Alex and Toggle are struggling. Twins Eli and Danny show up during their mother's MIT graduation, but a bad economy dries up lab grants, compelling the newly minted PhD to seek employment as a barista. Meanwhile, eternally blocked writer Jeff Redfern struggles to keep the Red Rascal legend-in-his-own-mind franchise alive, while aging music icon Jimmy T. endures by adapting to his industry's new normal: "I can make music on my schedule and release it directly to the fans."   He's living in his car.     G.B. Trudeau's Doonesbury is now in its fifth decade, and has chronicled American life through eight presidents, four generational cohorts, and innumerable paradigm shifts. His political sitcom Alpha House, starring John Goodman, is available on DVD and by streaming from Amazon Prime.   For the record, Trudeau always inhaled back in the day. As President Obama once explained, "That was the point."

The first edition of this book, published in 1979 under the name Aquatic Weeds, was a good success, but du-ing the last eight years several thousands of new references have been added in Literature and it definitely required updating. This second edition is based on relevant literature available up to 1985. Almost all aquatic weeds mentioned in the edition have been sketched, and modern plant classification has been followed in describing these weeds. The problems created by aquatic weeds in different situations in the country have been illustrated state wise. Besides, a general view of global aquatic weed problems has also been included. Principles and methods of aquatic weed control, have been dealt with in five different chapters. The modern research techniques and practical application aspects for each method of control, including physical, chemical, biological and design control have been discussed inadequate details. The Appendices include a detailed list of source of latest information on aquatic weeds and a comprehensive glossary of terms used in aquatic weed science, besides the several ready reckoners. The author sincerely hopes that the readers would gin from this second attempt and would be kind enough to write to the author for gaps which they consider should be taken care of in the third edition. 1987, 300 pages approximate, 46 figures.

“She’s LA’s Martha Stewart of weed. Her new cookbook makes edibles more fun and less scary.” —Los Angeles TimesCook delicious dishes with cannabis like never before and take each meal to new heights with recipes that are sure to delight stoners and newcomers alike.Recreational cannabis use is now legalized in nearly half of the United States (and medicinal use is legalized in most states), but for so many people, edibles are the preferred method. For some, smoking is too harsh on their lungs while others find it more fun to eat their weed. Plus, the high you get from consuming cannabis in food can be stronger and more sustained versus the immediate and sometimes overwhelming rush you might get from smoking it. While most dispensaries sell gummies and possibly infused chocolates, there’s so much more you can do with weed at home, and that’s what How to Eat Weed and Have a Good Time is here to prove.Author and host of VICE’s Bong Appetit, Vanessa Lavorato is teaching you how to create sweet and savory cannabis dishes right in your home kitchen. After crafting 200 certified lab tests in her research—to help ensure that the infusions for staples like cannabis butter, oil, sugar, and more are as accurate as possible—Vanessa walks you through every step of the process with informative tables and charts, making this book incredibly useful and wildly popular.With dazzling photography throughout, the book includes delicious recipes like taquitos, wontons, meatballs, granola, muffins, cookies, blondies, brownies, cupcakes, and more. There are also recipes for dips, dressings, and sauces from salsa to pesto to marinara—many of which can be prepared in advance and stored in the fridge or freezer for when you want to take a dish to new heights. And for when you want to drink your weed, there are recipes for milkshakes, chai, iced tea, and even a Bloody Mary.This book is packed with tips and advice throughout on topics like how weed gets people high, using everything from your stove to your microwave for decarboxylation (heat activates cannabis), cooking with concentrates, and shopping for weed. This is the most authoritative book ever published on the subject of cannabis consumption.

35 quick and easy recipes for snacks, drinks, dinners and lunches that will send you stratospheric! They say that your wedding day or the day your children are born are the best ones of your life. And, sure, they were great days… but if I'm going to be really honest, there were three days in the August of '69 that go down in history as the best days of my life. Between the 15th and 18th August, 1969, I lost myself and found myself on a dairy farm in Bethel, New York. Woodstock – the festival that rocked the world and defined my generation – was pure, unadulterated fun, love, harmony… and marijuana. I'm not going to lie – I was high pretty much the whole time. As I imagine most of the other half million people there were, too. We smoked, we danced, we laughed, we hugged… we lived. Over the years, I slowly transformed from that young, carefree hippie with flowers in her hair to a respectable teacher, to a PTA mum, to an empty nester, to who I am today: a silver-haired senior who has recently rediscovered her penchant for pot. So, in the spirit of sharing, caring and being daring, I have had a blast putting together this book, filled with my favourite cannabis-laced recipes from Hendrix Hash Brownies to a Muddy Milkshake that I hope will get you nicely buzzed. I've been reminiscing as I stir, chop, bake and simmer, reliving my far-out, groovy, wonderful Woodstock days. I even tie-dyed my apron. Peace.

Marijuana. It's been called a gateway drug, an introduction to the world of harder illegal drugs. Yet many people consider it to be a safe drug—at least safer than heroin, LSD, or cocaine. However, while marijuana might not be directly responsible for causing any deaths, the consequences of its use can be detrimental to the lives of its users. This book describes the history of marijuana use, the dangers of its use, and the legal consequences. You'll also learn about the controversies surrounding the drug—including the issues of decriminalization and the use of medical marijuana. Treatment options for marijuana dependency are also discussed

Congenial, unassuming, Adam Thompson's job is to scour the countryside to identify weeds that must be destroyed. Around his hometown, he is well-received. When he ventures into a remote corner of the county, he meets the Hudson brothers and learns routine friendliness is not always the way of things. He becomes an unwitting focal point in the county's crime of the decade. The story winds its way through a small town in Nebraska to Mount Rushmore to Rodeo Week in Stampede, Montana, and back again. It's a raucous, unpredictable journey, which underscores the importance of change, the influence of family, and the risk of squandered human potential. A scarred eyebrow becomes an ever-present reminder of Adam's run-in with Rufus Hudson and his brothers. His granddaughter runs her fingers over his dented eyebrow and asks if the scar will that ever go away. "No," he answers. "It's just a part of who I am. A very important part, I think."

Legalization and decriminalization of marijuana is America’s most important social problem. You will find that this amazing, instructive and timely book explains in easy to understand language why anyone who is educated in the facts of marijuana’s value as a medicine can only conclude that decriminalization and legalization is necessary. Our federal government has caved in to the relentless pressure of huge pharmaceutical corporations and other lobby groups who have strongly vested interests in delaying legalization as long as possible. It is a national disgrace to watch our PTSD afflicted veterans suffer needlessly. It is immoral to incarcerate hundreds of thousands of black youths for minor marijuana offenses. And to see millions of Americans suffer every day of their lives when a simple herbal plant used for over 5,000 years could change their lives is more than any moral and caring individual should be able to bear.

In today's ever-evolving world, where the debate surrounding the legalization and use of cannabis continues to make headlines, it is crucial to delve into the fascinating realm of different strains of weed and their respective effects. Cannabis, known by many names including marijuana, pot, and weed, has a long history of human consumption and cultural significance. However, not all strains of this versatile plant are created equal. Each strain possesses its own unique combination of cannabinoids, terpenes, and other chemical compounds, giving rise to a vast spectrum of effects on the mind and body. One of the most well-known and widely used strains is the Sativa variety. Sativa strains are typically associated with uplifting and energizing effects. These strains are cherished for their ability to stimulate creativity and promote social interaction. If you find yourself in need of a mental boost, Sativa strains may be the ideal choice. With their cerebral effects, they are often favored by artists, writers, and individuals seeking a productive, yet euphoric, experience.

“I don’t read Doonesbury. He glorifies drugs.” —Former White House Press Secretary Marlin Fitzwater   Welcome to the age of pivots. Two centuries after the Founding Fathers signed off on happiness, Zonker Harris and nephew Zipper pull up stakes and head west in hot pursuit. The dream? Setting up a major grow facility outside Boulder, Colorado, and becoming bajillionaire producers of “artisanal” marijuana. For Zonk, it’s the crowning reset of a career that’s ranged from babysitting to waiting tables. For Walden-grad Zip, it’s a way to confront $600,000 in student loans.   Elsewhere in Free Agent America, newlyweds Alex and Toggle are struggling. Twins Eli and Danny show up during their mother’s MIT graduation, but a bad economy dries up lab grants, compelling the newly minted PhD to seek employment as a barista. Meanwhile, eternally blocked writer Jeff Redfern struggles to keep the Red Rascal legend-in-his-own-mind franchise alive, while aging music icon Jimmy T. endures by adapting to his industry’s new normal: “I can make music on my schedule and release it directly to the fans.”   He’s living in his car.     G.B. Trudeau’s Doonesbury is now in its fifth decade, and has chronicled American life through eight presidents, four generational cohorts, and innumerable paradigm shifts. His political sitcom Alpha House, starring John Goodman, is available on DVD and by streaming from Amazon Prime.   For the record, Trudeau always inhaled back in the day. As President Obama once explained, “That was the point.”

Peter Joseph and his friends really didn't pay that much attention to the weed that grew wild by the old grist mill. But after chewing on it and putting it in the corncob pipe, the weed took on a whole different meaning.

A magical and mysterious garden where the unexpected seems to take over. A dissatisfied Daisy, an adventurer, caught up in mischief and desires, bringing about a whole new world of humor, tears, and love. The wild flowers and creatures take on a new meaning, as they grow in the imagination of the reader, each new character with their special task and story blends reality and fiction into a magical world of flowers, fairies, and humans. Plants that appear in this innocent garden, pushing their way in, overtaking other more charming plants, echo similarity to what the children and adults appear to go through, in this magical, enthralling story.

Big Weed presents an inside look at the legal marijuana industry and the huge economy it's creating—from the founder of Green Man Cannabis, one of the fastest-growing marijuana producers in the country.Marijuana legalization is the hottest story in the US today. More than 20 states have authorized sales in some form; Denver has more legal marijuana dispensaries than Starbucks franchises. We are witnessing the dawn of a new industry. And like the early days of gourmet coffee chains, the rules and players are being established on the fly.Christian Hageseth is the face of the revolution-an entrepreneur and father of three who worked in the white-collar professional world for 20 years before opening his first dispensary. The Founder and Chairman of Green Man Cannabis, the fastest-growing legalized marijuana company in the country, he's the perfect tour guide through the wild frontier, where police hardly know what laws to enforce, or parents what to tell their kids. He paints a colorful picture not only of how he got into the business, but of the big interests that are eager to do the same-namely Philip Morris, Monsanto and a who's who of Big Pharma. He predicts a future where the marijuana market splits in two: the high-end, artisanal market, supplied by individual growers and small farms, and the mass market, covered by the cigarette giants and anyone bold enough to compete with them. Much like beer and coffee, your brand of weed will be just one more reflection of your lifestyle. It's an entrepreneur's dream, and Hageseth invites us along in Big Weed as he pitches skeptical investors, negotiates a shaggy cast of colleagues, and builds the biggest business he can.

In the vein of Steinbeck’s Cannery Row, this novel takes the reader on a wild ride to a community turned upside-down by the social changes of the 1970s. Seen through the eyes of a young man newly fled from his straight-laced Dutch upbringing, the fishing village of Bamfield on Vancouver Island’s pristine west coast is the unlikely meeting place of an uneasy mix of fishermen, the Nuu-chah-nulth whaling clan, hippies, drug peddlers and the scientists and students of the Bamfield Marine Station.Gaz, a marine biologist, begins to live the laidback life of Lotusland in the 70s, becoming a beachcomber and small-time marijuana grower with his two friends, rich kid Blay and Weeping Salmon People aristocrat, Ben. And not long after, he falls in love with Heidi, a student at the Marine Station. But things go terribly wrong: greedy Blay brings big-city interests into their casual pot business, Ben is murdered, Heidi’s affections begin to wane and the local police are on to them. Of Bamfield, Simon Winchester wrote in the New York Times, “[It is] a town so tight-knit . . . [so] full of hidden intrigues and eccentrics . . . [that] with its extraordinary history, [it] seems the perfect subject for a novel.” Louis recognized this potential and felt compelled to explore Bamfield’s cauldron of characters in Cedar, Salmon and Weed.

Jimmy Donnelly is an underworld legend. Known as Jimmy the Weed, he has mixed with the most notorious gangsters in Europe in a criminal career spanning five decades. He has been arrested on suspicion of murder, theft, violence and fraud, has faced numerous court trials and has walked free from them all. Most infamously, Donnelly was a key figure in the Quality Street Gang, or QSG, an enigmatic group of car dealers, ex-boxers, scrap merchants and club owners. They socialised with the elite of Manchester, from football stars like George Best and Stan Bowles to famous entertainers, and inspired the Thin Lizzy song "The Boys Are Back In Town". They were also targeted for many years by Greater Manchester Police, who suspected some of them of major crimes. In the mid-1980s, the QSG became embroiled in the sensational Stalker Affair, which led to a national political scandal and ultimately to the resignation of the city's Deputy Chief Constable. From gangland feuds to major heists, Donnelly has seen and done it all, and tells it in unvarnished detail. JIMMY THE WEED is the last great untold story of British gangland.

The spellbinding mock history of the Department of Agriculture's most secretive and vital agency.The little-known USDA Agency of Invasive Species—founded by President and humble peanut farmer Jimmy Carter—would like to reassure you that they rank among the most effective and cost-efficient offices within the sprawling federal bureaucracy. For decades, under Administrative Director Adam Humphrey and his “strategic disengagement” approach, the Agency has epitomized vigilance against the clear and present danger of noxious weeds. Humphrey’s record of triumphant inertia faces only two obstacles. The first is reality; the second is the loud critic who dares to question the magic behind the Agency’s success: Nicholas Bader. Formerly known as President Reagan’s “bloody right hand,” Bader is on an obsessive quest to trim the fat from the federal budget. Full of oddball characters who shed light on the daily operations of Beltway minions, The Weed Agency showcases a world in which federal budgets balloon every year, where a career can be built upon the skill of rationalizing astronomical expenses, and where the word "accountability" sends roars of laughter through DC office buildings. That’s life inside the federal Agency of Invasive Species… and it may sound suspiciously similar to your reality.

How the future of post-legalization marijuana farming can be sustainable, local, and artisanal.What will the marijuana industry look like as legalization spreads? Will corporations sweep in and create Big Marijuana, flooding the market with mass-produced weed? Or will marijuana agriculture stay true to its roots in family farming, and reflect a sustainable, local, and artisanal ethic? In Craft Weed, Ryan Stoa argues that the future of the marijuana industry should be powered by small farms—that its model should be more craft beer than Anheuser-Busch.To make his case for craft weed, Stoa interviews veteran and novice marijuana growers, politicians, activists, and investors. He provides a history of marijuana farming and its post-hippie resurgence in the United States. He reports on the amazing adaptability of the cannabis plant and its genetic gifts, the legalization movement, regulatory efforts, the tradeoffs of indoor versus outdoor farms, and the environmental impacts of marijuana agriculture. To protect and promote small farmers and their communities, Stoa proposes a Marijuana Appellation system, modeled after the wine industry, which would provide a certified designation of origin to local crops. A sustainable, local, and artisanal farming model is not an inevitable future for the marijuana industry, but Craft Weed makes clear that marijuana legalization has the potential to revitalize rural communities and the American family farm.As the era of marijuana prohibition comes to an end, now is the time to think about what kind of marijuana industry and marijuana agriculture we want. Craft Weed will help us plan for a future that is almost here.

He developed procedures for treating what at the time was called Battle Fatigue, Shell Shock, etc. It took at least 10 more years before PTSD became recognized and utilized as the appropriate, treatment-oriented diagnosis.For the next 8 years, he worked as a civil commitment court evaluator as well as a clinician with the Psychiatric Clinic in Mankato Minnesota. He specialized in the treatment of children and adolescents. However in a small town, semi-rural area, he often had to treat whoever walked in the door.In 1980 after moving to Minneapolis, he served 2 years as the Treatment Coordinator for the inpatient adolescent unit at the University of Minnesota Hospitals. For the next 3 years he was director for one of several clinics that was part of a local HMO. By the late 1980’s he had developed a full-time clinical and forensic practice. Around 2001 he gradually phased out of his clinical practice in order to devote full time to his forensic practice which included evaluations in the areas of child custody, post-divorce decree mediation, juvenile and adult competency to proceed to trial, criminal evaluations referred either by the county attorneys office or private defense attorneys, and civil commitments (Mental Illness, Chemical Dependency, Mentally ill and Dangerous, Sexual Offenders).By the mid-1990s he began writing poems, which quickly morphed into writing song lyrics as well as poems. This has continued to the present time and served as the basis for the book. He used to play a lot of tennis and racket ball, was a long-distance cyclist, a 10K level runner, and wilderness camper. He can still play a lousy game of golf, hike up to a couple of miles, lift weights, and do 10 mile bike rides. He remains a blues and hard rock fan as long as it’s played LOUD. Favorite authors are James Lee Burke, Michael Connelly, Cormack McCarthy and Daniel Silva. Roger lives in Arizona with his wife (Gail) of 58 years.

Every business has blind spots. Some are buried in spreadsheets, others tucked behind enthusiasm or optimism that hasn't been tested. What separates long-term players from short-lived sparks isn't just hard work or passion—it's the ability to pause and ask the right questions before momentum becomes a runaway train. The Bold Ask takes you through that moment with precision. It builds a mindset where confidence isn't bravado, it's clarity. It's not about confrontation—it's about inquiry with intent.At its heart, this book is about raising the standard. It moves past conventional advice and soft strategies, cutting straight to the point: If your idea, pitch, or business model can't stand up to a handful of tough, targeted questions, it's not ready. And if it can, then it's worth backing. That's the filter. Not emotions. Not assumptions. Not popularity. Tough questions are the gatekeepers of real progress, and The Bold Ask helps you build them, ask them, and respond to them—without flinching.The chapters guide you through the real work of uncovering the weak links in your strategy before they become expensive lessons. You'll discover how to challenge your own ideas, how to push your team without crushing morale, and how to build a culture where critique means growth, not threat. You'll learn what to ask when the numbers look good but your gut disagrees, or when enthusiasm from stakeholders doesn't match what your customers are actually doing. The focus isn't on theory. It's on execution—on what to say, when to say it, and how to handle what comes next.What readers gain from this book is a personal toolkit that transforms hesitation into inquiry. They stop hoping for clarity and start building it through structured questions. They stop avoiding the elephant in the room and start naming it, measuring it, and dealing with it. Whether you're testing a product, exploring a new market, building a team, or refining your pitch, this book brings a ruthless sense of logic to the table—not to kill dreams, but to make them stronger.In business, it's easy to fall in love with an idea. It's much harder to ask if that idea solves a real problem, if it scales, if the market wants it, and if you're the right person to deliver it. That's what The Bold Ask encourages you to do. Not to be cynical. Not to be a skeptic for sport. But to lead with sharper vision and more honest assessments—because that's what makes a founder resilient, a manager trusted, and a team effective.The writing challenges you to let go of vague praise and start asking your people to clarify, quantify, and defend. It shows you how to stop fearing rejection and start using it to refine what you're offering. You learn how to reframe questions that shut people down into ones that invite stronger answers. And most importantly, you're reminded that the most powerful position in any conversation isn't having all the answers—it's knowing what questions deserve your time.It doesn't matter if you're bootstrapping, scaling, or restructuring. The tools inside The Bold Ask apply across stages, across industries. They work whether you're sitting across from an investor, explaining vision to a partner, or looking in the mirror after a rough quarter. The common thread is clarity. It strips away fluff and demands you stop hiding behind vague goals and start getting specific about what works—and what doesn't.What makes the approach in this book different is that it doesn't aim to make you comfortable. It makes you capable. It replaces the fear of being challenged with the drive to challenge smarter. It gives you the language to ask questions that aren't just bold, but useful. Questions that reframe meetings. That shift product roadmaps. That prevent wasted time and money. That build trust through transparency, not ego.

According to Wikipedia: "Ebenezer Cooke (ca. 1665 – ca. 1732), a London-born poet, wrote what some scholars consider the first American satire: “The Sotweed Factor, or A Voyage to Maryland, A Satyr” (1708). He has been fictionalized by John Barth as the comically innocent protagonist of The Sot-Weed Factor, a novel in which a series of fantastic misadventures leads Cooke to write his poem. As Barth explained, The Sot–Weed Factor began with the title and, of course, Ebenezer Cooke's original poem. . . . Nobody knows where the real chap is buried; I made up a grave for Ebenezer because I wanted to write his epitaph.' "

How to Weed Your Attic: Getting Rid of Junk without Destroying History provides answers to the question: when someone dies or it’s time to move --- or just clean out the attic, garage, or basement, what papers and other things should we save for the sake of history and what can we safely toss?After reading this clearly written book by a retired archivist and a retired museum curator, you can comfortably clean out your attic – or office, garage, basement, cupboards – with confidence that you’re not tossing out historically valuable (or invaluable) things, and that you will not ask your local museum to take things that really belong in a thrift store, junk yard, or recycle center.The book first describes how to identify historically important documents and artifacts. The authors explain a few simple rules: 1) a complete or long collection has more value than a partial one; 2) emotive material provides a richer picture than factual material; 3) unique usually has more value than mass produced; 4) documents and objects carry more information than they intend to; and 5) a 25-year rule exists without our consciously recognizing it. They then apply the rules and assess the probable historical value of four different types of materials: mass produced (from books to vehicles), individually created (from art work to toys), business materials (from governance documents to uniforms), and commemorative materials (from awards to wedding dresses).The book includes a brief description of the basics for preserving materials the reader wants to keep and references sources for more detail. It also recognizes that the reader may not want to keep stuff that clearly has historical value. For those readers, the authors describe how to donate materials to a cultural repository. In broad strokes, they explain how repositories differ, what the repository will want to know about the stuff you're offering, where an appraiser and/or tax advisor fits into the process, and what the reader can expect the repository to do and not do. Finally, the book addresses unexpected issues that may arise around questions of legal ownership and privacy. Throughout the book, the authors illustrate their points using photographs and vignettes.

The Weed of Earth is a story that takes place almost twenty years after the events of The Children of Earth. The main character is Aura Maria Solis, Estrella Solis's niece. As a result of a dramatic combination of events, she ends up in the colony on Patris, where she meets Gemma, Estrella's daughter. And of course, Raul, Estella's android.Aura Maria has a problem - her IQ is very low. For this reason, her mother abandoned her, and social supervision tried to take her away from her father in order to raise her up as a manual worker. Her artistic talents were not paid attention to, because in the world of her birth they were of no value. The girl's father bribed officials to look after his daughter. However, he was only allowed to do so until she was 21 years old. The verification commission considered Aura Maria as showing no hope and it was decided to euthanize her. Johnny Solis managed to trick the authorities to include the girl into the colonist transport and so she found herself on Patris.

Description: Are you a recovering control freak? If you find yourself constantly exercising your “leadership skills,” have the burning desire to always “help” others, and you always seem to know the “right way” to do things, there might be a bigger issue buried beneath these seemingly good qualities: You might be a control freak. In It’s Not My Weed to Pull—Diary of a Control Freak, author Charli Brown shares through humor and garden imagery how God showed her that not every problem was her problem to solve, and that when she tried to hop over into others’ “gardens,” to help, the result usually ended in disaster. In her no nonsense, cut-to-the-chase way, Charli opens up about her own experiences, and guides readers to understand the problem that being a control freak really is, for yourself and for others, and what God has to say about pulling up weeds in someone else’s garden.

They don’t say ‘grow like a weed’ for nothing.” —Jeb Blount, author of Fanatical Prospecting, CEO of Sales Gravy“All strategy is 'rooted' in customer value.  It’s imperative to do a strategic deep dive to better understand the evolving 'landscape' around new opportunities that, like a weed, continue to pop up in unexpected, yet scalable, areas.” —Sam Reese, CEO of Vistage Worldwide“It’s not just a business growth guide, it’s a whole new mindset.

Rogers, Forbes Senior Contributor and Founder, Forbes CMO Practice“I’ve always looked down at weeds, especially the ones attempting a hostile takeover in my yard. This book has convinced me to turn a new leaf. I now see weeds for their miracle of can-do spirit and as the ultimate guides for growth. If you buy this book, I will plant a weed in your name in my neighbor’s yard.” —Rick Dees, Angel investor, legendary radio personality“I wish I had this book when I was in my 20’s, I could have saved millions of dollars worth of mistakes.” —Dennis Brown, Host of Growth Experts Podcast, seven-time Inc 500 fastest growing entrepreneur“Stu Heinecke has delivered a fresh and deep-thinking approach to strategic business leaders who need to disrupt, pivot, and adapt for rapid growth.” —Marcia Daszko, author of Pivot, Disrupt, Transform, speaker, strategic change consultant“There are few books that I’ve come across in my life that cause me to drop everything I’m doing. For me, those books include The Hard Thing About Hard Things, Crossing the Chasm, and now I add Stu’s masterpiece—How to Grow Your Business like a Weed.” —Ammanuel Selameab, Founder of venture capital-backed startup Accrue.io“We’ve always known what it means to grow like a weed. This book tells us how to scale like a weed.” —Robert Mankoff, former cartoon editor at The New Yorker, co-founder of Cartoon Collections“While gardeners have been waging war with weeds, we have neglected to learn from these skirmishes. In How to Grow Your Business Like a Weed, Stu Heinecke shows us the many lessons we can learn from these invasive plants. Like weeds, these ideas will creep into your thoughts and inspire you!” —Charles Birney, Co-founder of Podville Media“Weeds teach us that our business roots must take hold in conditions that enable growth and scale. Weeds also show us that while we must remain grounded, agility is the key to sustainability. As we read this practical, must-read guide to growing any business, we couldn’t help but notice that Stu Heinecke consistently mentions “conditions” (culture) and “grounding” (values) before growth, scale, and agility. In other words, throughout this book, Stu provides leaders with the best possible advice: Before building a business that can thrive in even the harshest of environments, we must intentionally create—and consistently maintain—an inspiring foundation.” —S. Chris Edmonds and Mark S. Babbitt, Co-authors of Good Comes First“This is a really innovative concept—a brilliant read that reframes seed stage startups as mighty weeds.” —Chris Wilkes, Vice President, HearstLab“For millions of years, weeds have perfected their processes to adapt, spread, and grow. Stu brilliantly outlines how weeds are genetically programmed to execute their process and the unique attributes that give them their unfair advantages to dominate. I highly recommend this book as part of your own process to grow and scale your business.” —Eric Bristol, Demand Generation at Salary.com“Stu Heinecke’s book opened my eyes to how the weed ecosystem and the world of professional sales are so similar. The sales process is replete with positive growth agents such as referral sources, social media influencers, and reference customers, while there are also negative agents such as the competition, objections, and ghosted prospects. I love how he presents this intertwined set of forces as fighting and at the same time, working in tandem.” —Fred Diamond, Institute for Excellence in Sales“Successful entrepreneurs are a lot like weeds. Both adapt to thrive despite the environment, challenges, and competition they face.” —Jeremy Knauff, Entrprepreneur columnist, CEO of Spartan Media“This book brought back to me how the Marines who stood up the Marine Special Operations Command as a part of SOCOM in 2006. We were a weed to the rest of the Marine Corps.  Our Commander, General Dennis Hejlik, saw how we were going to create a long term relevancy for us as the world migrated away from traditional military operations.  The establishment wanted us to go away, but we persevered to resist the desire to pull us out of the ground.  I have taken this mindset into my practice as a digital marketer.  Many scoff at the idea, but like a weed, virtual live selling has become even more important with the challenges that the pandemic created for brick and mortar companies. Weeds are the out-of-the-box thinkers of our planet and look to thrive no matter what the circumstances.” —Jim Fuhs, LtCol USMC retired, President of Fuhsion Marketing“Next time you spot a weed, take a closer look. It’s a miracle of evolution, mindset, process and growth strategy. As Stu explains in this book, there is a lot to learn from weeds that can transform the scale of any business.” —Jim Huffman, GrowthHit CEO“In How to Grow Your Business Like a Weed, Stu Heinecke shares his exhaustive research from interviews of everyone from billionaires to scientists as to the parallel to growing a business—or nonprofit—or community like the amazing garden weed. Those building a business in today’s changing landscape will benefit from the Weed Mindset and the W.E.E.D.S. model for success. Once the right process and mindset are in place, growth can be massive. This book leads the way for that to happen.” —Lori Richardson, author of She Sells, CEO of Score More Sales“The mark of a good book is that it gives you insights and strategies to be successful. The mark of a great book is that it transforms how you think, how you feel and how you react to challenges and opportunities.
