Leafy green vegetables deserve a
place in your diet because they contain so many essential vitamins and
minerals. Both collard greens and spinach are low in calories, but high
in nutritional value. If you are unsure which variety of leafy green
vegetables to include in your diet, comparing the nutrition of spinach
versus collard greens may make that decision easier.
Iron
Adding
leafy green vegetables to your daily diet is one way to increase your
intake of iron. Iron is a mineral that enables your body to produce red
blood cells, as well as ensure that your entire body has the oxygen it
needs to function properly. A 1 cup serving of cooked spinach provides
significantly more iron than 1 cup of cooked collard greens. This
serving of spinach contains 6.43 mg of iron compared to the less than 1
mg present in the same amount of collard greens.
Calcium
Important
for strong bones and teeth, calcium is a mineral present in leafy green
vegetables, including spinach and collard greens. Calcium also plays a
role in the function of your hormones, nerves and muscles. One cup of
cooked spinach supplies you with 245 mg of calcium. The same serving
size of cooked collard greens contains less calcium, with 74 mg.
Fiber
Fiber
is another nutrient present in larger doses in spinach than in collard
greens. Your diet should include at least 20 g of fiber per day, the
Harvard School of Public Health reports. Fiber helps prevent
constipation and may also help lower your cholesterol and prevent heart
disease. A 1 cup serving of cooked spinach contains 4.2 g of fiber while
the same amount of cooked collard greens only contains 0.4 g of fiber.
Vitamin C
Your
body relies on vitamin C for infection control, as well as to be an
antioxidant that helps neutralize harmful free radicals. Vitamin C also
promotes healthy formation of collagen, a substance required for your
bones, teeth, gums and blood vessels. Both spinach and collard greens
supply a healthy dose of vitamin C, but spinach contains almost double.
One cup of cooked spinach has 17.6 mg of vitamin C, and 1 cup of cooked
collard greens contains 9 mg.
Vitamin A
Vitamin
A is important for healthy eyes, but also plays a role in healthy skin
and cells. Spinach is a vitamin A powerhouse and contains significantly
more vitamin A than collard greens. A 1 cup serving of cooked spinach
supplies 18,866 IU of vitamin A. One cup of cooked collard greens
provides 2,109 IU of vitamin A.

Two, three, four
One, two, three
Well, it doesn't matter
Well, when I tell you the story
None the less,
I'm quite used to it
It won't be running in TV-Funk (magazine). -
Yes, she was young,
Her heart so pure and white
And every night has its price.
She says: “Sugar Sweet,
ya got me rappin' to the heat!”
I understand, she's hot,
She says: “Baby, you know,
I miss my funky friends,”
She means Jack and Joe and Jill.
My understanding of funk,
yeah, it'll do in a crunch,
I understand what she wants now. -
I think it over,
Her nose does the talking,
While I continue to smoke,
She knows the 'Special Places' very well;
I think she takes the metro, too.
There they're singing:
“Don't turn around, look, look,
the Kommissar is out and about!
He'll keep his eye on you
and you know why.
Your zest for life will kill you.”
Alles klar, Herr Kommissar?
Hey man, wanna buy some stuff, man?
Did you ever rap that thing Jack?
So rap it to the beat!
We meet Jill and Joe
And his bother hip
And also the rest of the cool Gang
They rap to, they rap fro
In between they scrape it off the walls. -
This case is clear,
Dear Mr. Commissioner,
Even if you have a different opinion:
The snow on which we all
ski downhill,
every child knows.
Now the nursery rhyme:
“Don't turn around, look, look,
the Kommissar is out and about!
He has the power and we're little and dumb;
this frustration makes us mum.”
“Don't turn around, look, look,
the Kommissar is out and about!
When he talks to you
and you know why,
tell him: 'Your life is killing you.'”

here is what our federal government has to say about marijuana a whole lot compaired to alcohol info following
It is a dry, shredded green and brown mix of flowers, stems, seeds, and leaves
derived from the hemp plant Cannabis sativa.
The main active chemical in marijuana is delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol, or THC for short.
It is also smoked in blunts, which are cigars that have been emptied
of tobacco and refilled with a mixture of marijuana and tobacco.
This mode of delivery combines marijuana's active ingredients with nicotine and
other harmful chemicals.
Marijuana can also be mixed in food or brewed as a tea.
As a more concentrated, resinous form, it is called hashish; and as a sticky black liquid,
hash oil. Marijuana smoke has a pungent and distinctive, usually sweet-and-sour odor.
many effects. When someone smokes marijuana, THC rapidly passes from the lungs
into the bloodstream, which carries the chemical to the brain and other organs
throughout the body.
THC acts upon specific sites in the brain, called cannabinoid receptors, kicking
off a series of cellular reactions that ultimately lead to the "high" that users
experience when they smoke marijuana.
Some brain areas have many cannabinoid receptors; others have few or none.
The highest density of cannabinoid receptors are found in parts of the brain that
influence pleasure, memory, thinking, concentrating, sensory and time perception,
and coordinated movement.
Not surprisingly, marijuana intoxication can cause distorted perceptions,
impaired coordination, difficulty with thinking and problem solving, and
problems with learning and memory.
Research has shown that, in chronic users, marijuana's adverse impact on
learning and memory can last for days or weeks
after the acute effects of the drug wear off.
As a result, someone who smokes marijuana every day may be functioning
at a suboptimal intellectual level all of the time.
Research into the effects of long-term cannabis use on the structure of the brain
has yielded inconsistent results. It may be that the effects are too subtle for
reliable detection by current techniques.
A similar challenge arises in studies of the effects of chronic marijuana use on
brain function. Brain imaging studies in chronic users tend to show some consistent
alterations, but their connection to impaired cognitive functioning is far from clear.
This uncertainty may stem from confounding factors such as other drug use,
residual drug effects, or withdrawal symptoms in long-term chronic users.
drug seeking and abuse despite the known harmful effects upon functioning
in the context of family, school, work, and recreational activities.
Estimates from research suggest that about 9 percent of users become
addicted to marijuana; this number increases among those who start
young (to about 17 percent) and among daily users (25-50 percent).
Long-term marijuana abusers trying to quit report withdrawal symptoms
including: irritability, sleeplessness, decreased appetite, anxiety, and
drug craving, all of which can make it difficult to remain abstinent.
These symptoms begin within about 1 day following abstinence,
peak at 2-3 days, and subside within 1 or 2 weeks following drug cessation.3
use and increased rates of anxiety, depression, and schizophrenia.
Some of these studies have shown age at first use to be an important risk factor,
where early use is a marker of increased vulnerability to later problems.
However, at this time, it is not clear whether marijuana use causes mental
problems, exacerbates them, or reflects an attempt to self-medicate
symptoms already in existence.
Chronic marijuana use, especially in a very young person, may also be a
marker of risk for mental illnesses - including addiction - stemming from
genetic or environmental vulnerabilities, such as early exposure to stress or violence.
Currently, the strongest evidence links marijuana use and schizophrenia
and/or related disorders.4 High doses of marijuana can produce an
acute psychotic reaction; in addition, use of the drug may trigger the
onset or relapse of schizophrenia in vulnerable individuals.
this effect can last up to 3 hours. In one study, it was estimated that
marijuana users have a 4.8-fold increase in the risk of heart attack
in the first hour after smoking the drug.
This may be due to increased heart rate as well as the effects of
marijuana on heart rhythms, causing palpitations and
arrhythmias. This risk may be greater in aging populations
or in those with cardiac vulnerabilities.
carcinogens and to be an irritant to the lungs. In fact,
marijuana smoke contains 50-70 percent more carcinogenic hydrocarbons
than tobacco smoke.
Marijuana users usually inhale more deeply and hold their breath longer
than tobacco smokers do, which further increase the lungs' exposure
to carcinogenic smoke.
Marijuana smokers show dysregulated growth of epithelial cells
in their lung tissue, which could lead to cancer; however,
a recent case-controlled study found no positive associations
between marijuana use and lung, upper respiratory, or upper
digestive tract cancers.
Thus, the link between marijuana smoking and these cancers
remains unsubstantiated at this time. Nonetheless, marijuana smokers
can have many of the same respiratory problems as tobacco smokers,
such as daily cough and phlegm production, more frequent acute
chest illness, and a heightened risk of lung infections.
A study of 450 individuals found that people who smoke marijuana
frequently but do not smoke tobacco have more health problems
and miss more days of work than nonsmokers.8
Many of the extra sick days among the marijuana smokers in the study were for respiratory illnesses.

worse. In one study, heavy marijuana abusers reported that the
drug impaired several important measures of life achievement,
including physical and mental health, cognitive abilities, social life,
and career status.9 Several studies associate workers' marijuana
smoking with increased absences, tardiness, accidents, workers'
compensation claims, and job turnover.
incentives (i.e., providing vouchers for goods or services to patients who
remain abstinent) have shown efficacy in treating marijuana
dependence.
Although no medications are currently available, recent discoveries
about the workings of the cannabinoid system offer promise for the
development of medications to ease withdrawal, block the intoxicating
effects of marijuana, and prevent relapse.
The latest treatment data indicate that in 2008 marijuana accounted for
17 percent of admissions (322,000) to treatment facilities in the
United States, second only to opiates among illicit substances.
Marijuana admissions were primarily
male (74 percent),
White (49 percent),
and young (30 percent were in the 12-17 age range).
Those in treatment for primary marijuana abuse had begun
use at an early age: 56 percent by age 14.**
of substantive research and heated debate.
Scientists have confirmed that the cannabis plant contains
active ingredients with therapeutic potential for relieving pain,
controlling nausea, stimulating appetite, and decreasing ocular pressure.
Cannabinoid-based medications include synthetic compounds, such as
dronabinol (Marinol®) and nabilone (Cesamet®), which are FDA approved,
and a new, chemically pure mixture of plant-derived
THC and cannabidiol called Sativex®, formulated as a mouth spray and
approved in Canada and parts of Europe for the relief of cancer-associated
pain and spasticity and neuropathic pain in multiple sclerosis.
Scientists continue to investigate the medicinal properties of THC and other
cannabinoids to better evaluate and harness their ability to help patients
suffering from a broad range of conditions, while avoiding the adverse
effects of smoked marijuana.
16.7 million Americans aged 12 or older used marijuana at least

rates reported in all years between 2002 and 2008
There was also a significant increase among youth aged 12-17,

although this rate is lower than what was reported in 2002 (8.2 percent).

Revised November 2010
Marijuana is the most commonly abused illicit drug in the United
States.It is a dry, shredded green and brown mix of flowers, stems, seeds, and leaves
derived from the hemp plant Cannabis sativa.
The main active chemical in marijuana is delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol, or THC for short.
How is Marijuana Abused?
Marijuana is usually smoked as a cigarette (joint) or in a pipe.It is also smoked in blunts, which are cigars that have been emptied
of tobacco and refilled with a mixture of marijuana and tobacco.
This mode of delivery combines marijuana's active ingredients with nicotine and
other harmful chemicals.
Marijuana can also be mixed in food or brewed as a tea.
As a more concentrated, resinous form, it is called hashish; and as a sticky black liquid,
hash oil. Marijuana smoke has a pungent and distinctive, usually sweet-and-sour odor.
How Does Marijuana Affect the Brain?
Scientists have learned a great deal about how THC acts in the brain to produce itsmany effects. When someone smokes marijuana, THC rapidly passes from the lungs
into the bloodstream, which carries the chemical to the brain and other organs
throughout the body.
THC acts upon specific sites in the brain, called cannabinoid receptors, kicking

experience when they smoke marijuana.
Some brain areas have many cannabinoid receptors; others have few or none.
The highest density of cannabinoid receptors are found in parts of the brain that

alterations, but their connection to impaired cognitive functioning is far from clear.
This uncertainty may stem from confounding factors such as other drug use,
residual drug effects, or withdrawal symptoms in long-term chronic users.
Addictive Potential
Long-term marijuana abuse can lead to addiction; that is, compulsivedrug seeking and abuse despite the known harmful effects upon functioning
in the context of family, school, work, and recreational activities.
Estimates from research suggest that about 9 percent of users become
addicted to marijuana; this number increases among those who start
young (to about 17 percent) and among daily users (25-50 percent).

drug craving, all of which can make it difficult to remain abstinent.
These symptoms begin within about 1 day following abstinence,
peak at 2-3 days, and subside within 1 or 2 weeks following drug cessation.3
Marijuana and Mental Health
A number of studies have shown an association between chronic marijuanause and increased rates of anxiety, depression, and schizophrenia.
Some of these studies have shown age at first use to be an important risk factor,
where early use is a marker of increased vulnerability to later problems.
However, at this time, it is not clear whether marijuana use causes mental

Currently, the strongest evidence links marijuana use and schizophrenia
and/or related disorders.4 High doses of marijuana can produce an
acute psychotic reaction; in addition, use of the drug may trigger the
onset or relapse of schizophrenia in vulnerable individuals.
What Other Adverse Effect Does Marijuana Have on Health?
Effects on the Heart
Marijuana increases heart rate by 20-100 percent shortly after smoking;this effect can last up to 3 hours. In one study, it was estimated that
marijuana users have a 4.8-fold increase in the risk of heart attack
in the first hour after smoking the drug.
This may be due to increased heart rate as well as the effects of
marijuana on heart rhythms, causing palpitations and
arrhythmias. This risk may be greater in aging populations
or in those with cardiac vulnerabilities.
Effects on the Lungs
Numerous studies have shown marijuana smoke to containcarcinogens and to be an irritant to the lungs. In fact,
marijuana smoke contains 50-70 percent more carcinogenic hydrocarbons
than tobacco smoke.
Marijuana users usually inhale more deeply and hold their breath longer

Many of the extra sick days among the marijuana smokers in the study were for respiratory illnesses.
Effects on Daily Life
Research clearly demonstrates that marijuana has the potential tocause problems in daily life or make a person's existing problems
worse. In one study, heavy marijuana abusers reported that the
drug impaired several important measures of life achievement,
including physical and mental health, cognitive abilities, social life,
and career status.9 Several studies associate workers' marijuana
smoking with increased absences, tardiness, accidents, workers'
compensation claims, and job turnover.
What Treatment Options Exist?
Behavioral interventions, including cognitive-behavioral therapy and motivationalincentives (i.e., providing vouchers for goods or services to patients who
remain abstinent) have shown efficacy in treating marijuana
dependence.
Although no medications are currently available, recent discoveries
about the workings of the cannabinoid system offer promise for the

Is Marijuana Medicine?
The potential medicinal properties of marijuana have been the subjectof substantive research and heated debate.
Scientists have confirmed that the cannabis plant contains
active ingredients with therapeutic potential for relieving pain,
controlling nausea, stimulating appetite, and decreasing ocular pressure.
Cannabinoid-based medications include synthetic compounds, such as
dronabinol (Marinol®) and nabilone (Cesamet®), which are FDA approved,

cannabinoids to better evaluate and harness their ability to help patients
suffering from a broad range of conditions, while avoiding the adverse
effects of smoked marijuana.
How Widespread is Marijuana Abuse?
National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH)
According to the National Survey on Drug Use and Health, in 2009,16.7 million Americans aged 12 or older used marijuana at least
once in the month prior to being surveyed, an increase over the
rates reported in all years between 2002 and 2008
There was also a significant increase among youth aged 12-17,
with current use up from 6.7 percent in 2008 to 7.3 percent in 2009,

Past-month use also increased among those 18-25, from 16.5 percent
in 2008 to 18.1 percent in 2009.
Monitoring the Future Survey
Results from the 2009 Monitoring the Future survey show, as in thepast few years, a stall in the decline of marijuana use that began in the
late 1990s among our Nation's youth. In 2009, 11.8 percent of 8th-graders,
