That's all Folks!

DoseNation is going on indefinite hiatus. It's been fun, but burnout from sitting in front of the computer has kept me from being able to maintain the blog the way I'd like. The site may be revived in the future, but for now this experiment has come to an end.

If you still need a fix of daily drug news, you can visit the DoseNation News page, which will continue to syndicate headlines from topical blogs and news sites around the web.

Peace!

Review: 'To Live Outside the Law' by Leaf Fielding


First published in July 2011, 'To Live Outside the Law' is a book of many facets. It is part personal memoir of the ’60s-’70s psychedelic scene, part ‘true crime’-style insider account of the Operation Julie escapade, subsequent bust and jail time, and also a larger meditation on the cultural and spiritual impact on humanity of that most potent and exotic of illegal substances—LSD.

The book is tightly and economically written, telling us enough but without going into burgeoning detail, so that a large swathe of time is covered efficiently in its near 300 pages. The structure takes the time-honoured form of two interwoven strands, the first starting with the Julie bust and continuing on through the legal proceeding and imprisonment, and the second dealing with Leaf’s past life up to the bust. It works very well, with the unrelenting downbeat dourness of the former strand contrasting strikingly with the colour of the latter; and the two synergise together beautifully to answer the book’s central question, poised on its cover: How did I get into this mess?

This information can also be used to determine if plants are male or female before the respective organs appear. Anyone know if this genome will be posted on a public/academic database?

Modified ecstasy 'attacks blood cancers'

Ecstasy is known to kill some cancer cells, but scientists have increased its effectiveness 100-fold, they said in Investigational New Drugs journal.

Their early study showed all leukaemia, lymphoma and myeloma cells could be killed in a test tube, but any treatment would be a decade away.

Psychonautic adventures through Hamswell festival

"There was an omniscient voice of Hamswell that pervaded identically with the flow; The Megaphone – a voice of focus in an otherwise sense addled and wonky world. On Saturday morning, yoga with The Healing Earth was announced. The Megaphone sprinted up the sides of the valley, rousing some of the sleeping Hamswellians, and alerting those [still] awake. Coffea Arabica helped rouse Bobalicious from his morning trance hours earlier, but it was with the spirit of Hofmann that he made his way over to the temple of The Healing Earth and, under her guidance, in amongst the brave-25, there occurred a yogic becoming…"

Invisible College - 6th Edition

The latest version of the illuminated manuscript 'Invisible College' is available now. The print edition looks amazing, and is full of original articles and artwork. Here's a brief rundown of the contents:

From an in-depth interview with Jim Fadiman conducted by Diane Darling… to the internationally recognized Poetry & Aphorisms of Yahia Lababidi, this is the most adventurous edition of The Invisible College yet. We have great art, from sculptural works of Chuck St. John, the collage works of Jim Harter, to the elegant beauty of Oleg Korolev’s oil paintings. Poet Bryce Milligan graces our pages with his epic poem “Alms For Oblivion”, whilst Delvin Solkinson brings us an overview of visionary art around the world with his “World Medicine” article. We visit again with LyterPhotos with the latest installment of The Serpent & The Light: “Aesclepian Staves To Dionysian Raves”. Last but not least, Coleman Barks superb interpretations in “Epilogue: A Visitation With Rumi”.
