Where heroin is prescribed legally, like Switzerland, virtually all it's so-called nasty side effects are negated.
People prescribed it don't OD because quantity/quality consistencies are guaranteed. They don't catch things like HIV/HCV because IV equipment availability minimizes equipment sharing. The desire to rob or steal is minimized because prescription heroin doesn't cost much more to make than aspirin.
Heroin is just a catalyst of morphine, that converts back to morphine in the body, & as such negative side-effects of long term use of prescription heroin are as minimal as they are for morphine, being simply a higher rate of dental cavities if one's dental hygiene isn't upgraded, due to DIDMS (drug induced dry mounth syndrome) like many other medications. Yes there are war veterans who have been on autonomous morphine pumps for over 40 years years (for things like shrapnel against the spin, etc) & that is their only negative side-effect. Even this side-effect can be negated through the regular use of a electric toothbrush & extra strong toothpaste like NF2K.
BTW I know a number of people that were perpetual thieves/scammers/sex-workers till they got on prescription heroin & in very quick time became highly successful professionals in a number of different legitimate industries.
I Also know many people that tried heroin & didn't like it & moved on, & also know people that don't have any problem using heroin infrequently enough to never get a habit (Simply no more than 2 days a week)
It's not hard to tell the addicts from those that arn't. The fact is if a person does not have 1 of about 8 specif axis 1 mental disorders or 1 of about 12 personality disorders, the odds are they will never become a addict long term regardless of how much they experiment with drugs in their teens or their 20's. Mind you a large percentage of those that do have personality disorders are never diagnosed as, & thus arn't aware of their risk, are in denial, or are simply written off as junky scums. Adversely you could say that anyone that's over 30 that's still living a dysfunctional drug addict life style, odds on has a personality disorder &/or 1 of about 8 specific A1 mental disorders, whether they have been diagnosed or not. The classic junkie cliché of ripping off one's own grandmother is usually an indicator of a cluster B personality disorder. These facts outline the answers to the old questions of the difference between a heavy drinker & a alcoholic, or a recreational gambler & a compulsive gambler. Invariably the difference is that the alcoholic/compulsive gambler also has a personality disorder or a mental disorder.
One could also define the 12 steps of AA/NA as a arguably functional lifestyle method for those that are on the wagon in regards their compulsions & have undiagnosed personality disorders or are in-denial in that regard (many addicts have many attitudes that have not matured from their days in high school, where to identify as having a mental problem was considered worse than to identify as a druggie).
dozens of mines have opened in areas where it wasn't viable as late as 10 years ago due to coverage 40 metres deep of ice that has since disappeared making the opening of these mines viable for the 1st time.
I don't see why copyright law enforcement should've ever entered the criminal code, it should have just remained a part of the civil law code like patent law.
Lambo was a tractor manufacturer. Then one day Mr Lambo bought a Ferrari & wasn't impressed & took it back, Mr Ferrari refused to improve the Ferrari as Mr Lambo requested, so Mr Lambo stormed off in a huff yelling 'bugger you, I can do a better job building supercars myself'
It seems you're saying that if the country you reside in legislated away your freedom & the law said everyone of your ethnicity must reside in death camp, the rational thing to do would be to comply, because otherwise one would be breaking the law, making one a convict, because a convict is a convict.
For example Alcohol & tobacco, & even Oxy-Contin & MS-Contin arn't hard to get legal prescriptions for if one knows what one is doing. BTW in many countries Diacetylmorphine (the pharmaceutical name for heroin) is a legal prescription drug, including in both the UK & Canada.
Actually I have a friend of mine that's been a editor of a successful magazine for over a decade, all while being on prescription heroin program with the UK's NHS.
Incidentally one can legally consume GHB by simply putting a couple of drops of acetone-free nail polish remover in one's mouth & washing it down with a glass of water. Acetone free nail polish remover + water = GHB. As long as one doesn't mix the Acetone-free nail polish remover with the water before consuming them, one isn't even breaking federal laws in regards the manufacture, possession & use of a controlled substance.
problem are the dickheads thinking one has said "could of" & daring to issue a corrections, leading one having to explain that one's using an abbreviated form of "could have" spelt "c-o-u-l-d-'-v-e".
It really didn't take relatively long at all for the Soviets to put the mujahuden on it's last legs & losing the will to fight. Giving Bush Senior no choice but to give up the orthodoxy of plausible deniability & have his CIA send in the Stingers, changing the situation on the ground overnight. The Soviet way of fighting in Afghanistan bore little resemblance to the NATO led alliance way of fighting in Afghanistan.
I suggest you do some research on the state of the Afghan Mujahudeen fighting the Soviets during the last months before the Stingers entered the equation.
If you &/or the IRS public servant processing your form can't do basic arithmetic.
If a $1 raise from $39,999 to $40,000 put's one's income in a higher tax bracket, it's only that final dollar that falls within that higher tax bracket that gets taxed at the higher rate, the other $39,999 is taxed exactly the same as before.
It's only the part of the raised income that falls above the threshold that's taxed at the higher rate. The rest of the income that comes in under the threshold is taxed at the lower rate just like it was before the relevant raise put one's income over the new threshold.
For example say incomes under $20,000 arn't taxed & the tax rate between $20,000 'n $40,000 is 30% & income over $40,000 is taxed at 40%; in a case where someone's gross pay is raised from $38,000 PA to $42,000 PA then it's only $2000 of the total $42,000 PA that's taxed at 40%. Incidentally in this example, the 1st $20,000 of both the before & after pay rates are tax free too.
I assume the only reason why Lucas doesn't own the trademark to 'Jedi' is because someone else beat Lucas to the post & managed to trademark the word already. In which case shouldn't they be suing Lucas? Maybe Lucas had to buy a license to 'Jedi' in the 1st place
If they expect too high a price they are left with a bunch of unsold tickets that are worthless.
Remember if you don't want to pay the high price a scalper demands you have the right to say no, if all like minded did the same scalpers would go out of business.

what a load a crap
Tell you a secret, if a woman's dry it means she's not aroused (well except those with medical issues)
not acceping the things one cannot change = loser
just because it maybe illegal to sell or possess certain drugs does not mean it's is illegal to buy them.
Europeans, Canadians & us Aussies don't have a problem backpacking arround the world, doing a gap year, why Americans don't do it is beyond me.
UNESCO should be thankfull that there's a backup in case the original gets wiped by an eathquake.
while questioning suspects & informants, so it must be ok.

it doesn't exist in the real world
UK does not fall within US juridiction
I don't see why copyright law enforcement should've ever entered the criminal code, it should have just remained a part of the civil law code like patent law.
LEOs regularly exaggerate, embellish & lie to magistrates 'n judges, both in court & in chambers to get convictions, warrants & court orders galore.

Then there's the utility meter reader or (in Yank parlance) the cable guy.
Actually one thing I did notice at high school was that it seemed virtually all the tall kids were gluttonous milk drinkers.

Their one child policy means there's 400 million less Chinese than there otherwise would be. That means huge cuts in emissions in China already
Ever heard of Hellenistic Bactria. Their kings did not wear Macedonian royal berets on their coin stampings for nothing.
Where there's one there's useally more.
& one can negotiate as the tickets become worthless if scalpers hold onto them too long
If they expect too high a price they are left with a bunch of unsold tickets that are worthless.
