House Democrats Urge DEA To Speed Up Cannabis Rescheduling

0

[ad_1]

Top Democrats from influential House committees are urging the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) to expedite the process of rescheduling cannabis.

In a letter sent to Attorney General Merrick Garland and DEA Administrator Anne Milgram, Representatives Jerrold Nadler (D-NY) and Frank Pallone (D-NJ), ranking members of the Judiciary and Energy & Commerce Committees respectively, stressed the need for quick action following a scientific review by the Biden administration.

According to Marijuana Moment, the lawmakers argue that cannabis has “less potential for abuse than other drugs” and serves an “accepted medical use in treatment.”

Their comments align with recommendations from the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and the Department of Justice, which have called for the reclassification of cannabis from Schedule I to Schedule III under the Controlled Substances Act (CSA).

“We value the Department of Justice’s steadfast commitment to prevent the misuse and diversion of controlled substances that pose a threat to public health,” Nadler and Pallone wrote.

The lawmakers applauded the Biden administration for initiating the review and urged the DEA to “swiftly complete this process and transfer marijuana to schedule III.”

Push For Full Descheduling

While the immediate focus is on rescheduling to Schedule III, which would loosen some federal restrictions on cannabis, the legislators also urged federal agencies to explore further reform.

They said that “continuing to assess whether schedule IV, schedule V, or descheduling may be appropriate” could be the next step in aligning cannabis policy with evolving scientific and medical understanding.

Descheduling, which would remove cannabis from the CSA entirely, remains a key objective for many advocates and lawmakers, including Nadler, who has previously sponsored the MORE Act – a bill that would result in full legalization.

Election-Year Focal Point

The timing of the lawmakers’ push comes as cannabis policy increasingly takes center stage in U.S. election politics. Both major parties are positioning themselves on the issue as the 2024 presidential election approaches.

However, final action on the rescheduling is not expected until after November, with the DEA scheduling an administrative hearing on the matter for December 2. This hearing will allow for further input from experts and stakeholders before the agency potentially finalizes its decision.

NYC attacker in ‘X-Men’ shirt randomly bashes elderly woman

[ad_1]

An attacker in an “X-Men” T-shirt randomly bashed an elderly woman with a metal object as she walked in the East Village last week, cops said. 

The 68-year-old victim was strolling on East 14th Street near First Avenue, steps from the Stuy Town apartments, around 6:15 p.m. Sept. 22 when the Manhattan menace crept up behind her, police said. 

He hit her in the back with an “unknown metal object” before taking off, police said.

Surveillance footage released by the NYPD late Monday shows the suspect ambling down the sidewalk at one point wearing his gray “X-Men” T-shirt, black pants and gray sneakers and carrying a backpack. 

The victim refused medical attention, and the suspect was still at large Tuesday, cops said. 

The assault was one of several unprovoked attacks across the city in recent weeks. 

An unhinged attacker randomly slashed a 62-year-old man with a boxcutter as he crossed a Bronx street in broad daylight Sunday, cops and sources said. 

The victim was waiting for the light to change on Hugh Grant Circle near Metropolitan Avenue in Parkchester around 2:20 p.m. when Joyner Javon, 33 — who has a history of being emotionally disturbed — suddenly cut the man’s right ear for no reason, authorities and sources said. 


The suspect, seen wearing an 'X-Men' T-shirt, fled the scene and has not been caught.

Javon was arrested and charged with assault, cops said. 

In Park Slope, Brooklyn, last week, a mumbling maniac also randomly stabbed a 32-year-old man in the chest on Seventh Avenue near Lincoln Place, cops said. 

Earlier in September, a violent brute randomly punched a 74-year-old woman in the face on a southbound A train as it approached the 104th and Liberty Avenue station in Ozone Park, Queens, according to cops.

Weeks earlier, a maniac slashed a teen boy on a Bronx subway — as terrifying surveillance footage captured the criminal stalking the platform while holding a giant blade after the random attack. 

The madman cut the 16-year-old straphanger in the back of the head onboard a southbound No. 2 train as it rumbled toward the Prospect Avenue station in Melrose, according to police.

Our Founder Reflects on NYT Cooking & the Origin of Food52

0

[ad_1]

Welcome to the latest edition of Food52 Founder Amanda Hesser’s weekly newsletter, Hey there, it’s Amanda, packed with food, travel, and shopping tips, Food52 doings, and other matters that catch her eye. Get inspired—sign up here for her emails.


Last week, New York Times Cooking celebrated the 10-year anniversary of its incredibly successful cooking app. In truth, the app’s success was more like 20 years in the making. The Times had wanted to digitize its vast recipe archive since the early 2000s, but due to a lot of internal to-ing and fro-ing (something the Times specializes in), it took more than a decade to take the leap. The extended maceration has proven worthwhile—they got it right. They understood their readership’s long held desire for inspiration, recipes they can trust, and a place to be heard about it. The app shines not only because of the breadth and quality of its content but because of the wacky and endearing commentary from its readers.

It may seem odd to highlight one of our competitors, but Food52 owes some of its origin to the Times (where I worked for 11 years), and I’ve always believed in rising tides and all that. I was working on The Essential New York Times Cookbook, a compendium of the most noteworthy recipes from the Times’s 170-year-old archive, when Merrill, my co-founder, and I decided to start Food52. One of our inspirations was the Times’s bountiful recipe coverage from the 19th century: It was generated almost exclusively by readers. As part of my research, I’d also put a notice in the Times asking readers for their “most-stained recipes.” I received thousands of detailed and colorful responses, many of which are sprinkled throughout my book.

These two signals—the desire for home cooks to have their recipes celebrated in a respected publication and then to be able to chat about their cooking experiences—helped shape Food52.

NYT Cooking hasn’t yet embraced publishing its reader’s recipes; it sticks to recipes and resists having an aesthetic or point of view about lifestyle, or getting into how recipes fit into a larger whole, with products and other home content. Those are the things that we do! There is room for both approaches. I’m a loyal NYT Cooking fan. Maybe you are, too. But you’re here for something else.

Now, before I lose my job, let’s move on to some of those other things that you come here for:

10 of the best films about US presidential elections

[ad_1]

The tension is building in the race for the White House – and that tension runs through Hollywood’s most gripping political dramas, comedies and documentaries.

The current campaign may be the most tumultuous in US history, with a late-in-the-day candidate change and two dramatic debates, along with the possibility (again) of the first woman president. But the race for the White House has intrigued film-makers for decades, with some startling results. Even Frank Capra, the goody-two-shoes of US cinema, cast a sceptical eye on the process. Some films are thinly veiled fictions, others prescient fantasies, but all find themes that go the heart of US democracy and ideals. Here are some of the best presidential election movies, including an under-appreciated gem from Mike Nichols and Elaine May, another starring Ryan Gosling and George Clooney, and a West Wing warm-up from Aaron Sorkin.

1. Primary Colors (1998) dir Mike Nichols

One of Mike Nichols’ best and least-known films, with a glittering screenplay by Elaine May, this satire follows a not-at-all veiled fictional version of Bill Clinton through the primaries on his way to the White House. John Travolta is unlikely but brilliant as Jack Stanton, a Southern governor who can charm his way out of anything. Travolta captures the Clinton charisma as well as the empathetic “I feel your pain” glances without becoming a caricature. Emma Thompson plays his wife, Susan, a Hillary before she had a political career of her own, but whose instincts are as sharp as anyone’s. Based on the 1996 novel by the journalist Joe Klein (originally published as Anonymous), the film goes behind the scenes as the campaign tries to dispel rumours – some true, some not – of Stanton’s womanising. Adrian Lester, as an idealistic young campaign manager, embodies the theme of lost innocence that runs through so many movies about US elections. The film is also very funny even as it raises one of the fundamental questions of 20th and 21st-Century politics: does a little spin and subterfuge matter if it helps put someone who’ll do the best for the US in the White House? Even Lincoln stretched the truth, Stanton argues.

2. All the President’s Men (1976) dir Alan J Pakula

One of the great films of our time, All the President’s Men is of course front-and-centre about journalism. But take another look as you’ll see how much it is also about dirty campaign politics. When Robert Redford and Dustin Hoffman, as Washington Post reporters Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein, ­track down the truth behind the Watergate break-in and the cover-up that led to Richard Nixon’s resignation, much of their investigation leads them to CREEP, the all-too-accurate acronym for the Republicans’ Committee to Re-elect the President. That committee’s bungled attempt to steal information from the Democratic National Committee headquarters in the Watergate building was just the first clue to exposing all sorts of other campaign creepiness from illegal payments to character assassination. Still suspenseful every time you watch it, the film beautifully weaves together many threads about the US. The corruption behind Nixon’s 1972 campaign is one of its themes with enduring, cautionary impact.

3. Wag the Dog (1997) dir Barry Levinson

This satire from the 1990s seems timelier than ever now, in the age of artificial intelligence and disputes about what constitutes a fact. Robert De Niro is at his droll best as Conrad Brean, a campaign consultant called in when a story about the president’s affair with a young woman breaks two weeks before the election that will keep him in office. (One jaw-dropping aside: the film was released just a month before the Clinton-Lewinsky scandal broke. The Clinton presidency really was a gift to film-makers.) To save the campaign, Brean recruits a Hollywood producer – hilariously played as the ultimate narcissist by Dustin Hoffman – to film evidence of a war with Albania that doesn’t really exist. They even find a war hero who wasn’t a hero and make him a celebrity. The press buys it, the public buys it and who’s to say what’s real anymore? The film’s portrayal of how politics and Hollywood merge is taken for granted now, but David Mamet’s biting screenplay and Barry Levinson’s sharp direction hold up perfectly.

4. The War Room (1993) dir DA Pennebaker and Chris Hegedus

DA Pennebaker and Chris Hegedus’s groundbreaking documentary is based on amazing behind-the-scenes access to Bill Clinton’s first run for president in 1992, and stands as the real-life version of Primary Colors. Clinton appears only briefly. The central characters are the strategist James Carville and the communications director, a baby-faced George Stephanopoulos, long before he became a news anchor. A sign on the wall of the campaign office gives us Carville’s now famous line about what mattered most: “The Economy. Stupid.” Stephanopoulos is seen putting out media fires, including a phone conversation in which he tells a reporter working on a rumour about Clinton that he will look foolish and have no future if he writes that lie, almost making that response sound like a fact not a threat. (That particular rumour has, in fact, long since been discredited.) The film is exhilarating as it captures all the youthful energy of a campaign running on hope and adrenaline.

5. The Best Man (1964) dir Franklin J Schaffner

Gore Vidal’s screenplay is firmly in the JFK era, but its take on the machinations to choose a presidential nominee at a split convention still goes to the heart of many issues in campaign politics, including money, promises made in exchange for support and skeletons in the candidates’ closets. Henry Fonda plays William Russell, the experienced secretary of state, fondly called an egghead by one of his supporters. “Do you think people mistrust intellectuals like you in politics?” one reporter asks him. Senator Joe Cantwell (Cliff Robertson, who the year before played Kennedy as a war hero in the hagiographic PT-109) is his slick, young, ends-justifies-the means rival. Each candidate has dirt on the other, but will they use it? Vidal takes a jab at the era’s homophobia by making one of the secrets the rumour of a gay affair, and complicates the issue when it turns out that one of the rumours is false. The noble ending seems forced, but until then the film remains full of intrigue and soul-searching questions.

6. State of the Union (1948) dir Frank Capra

This strong but little-known Spencer Tracy and Katharine Hepburn drama was directed by Frank Capra, and its sharp-eyed cynicism about the political process makes it one of his least corny films. Tracy plays Grant Matthews, a successful businessman married to Mary (Hepburn) but involved in an affair with a politically ambitious newspaper heiress, Kay Thorndyke, played by Angela Lansbury. Kay wants to use her money and influence to put Grant in the White House, but they’ll need Mary to play along as the loyal spouse. Hepburn captures Mary’s hurt and disappointment when she realises she’s being used as a campaign prop (the spouse as prop is one of the most intractable aspects of running for office). Tracy makes Grant an essentially good man who for a time is co-opted by ambition and political handlers. Like any Capra film, this one an idealistic ending, but its true interest for us today is its clarity about the seductiveness of power and the compromises that go into electing a president.

7. The American President (1995) dir Rob Reiner

If you love The West Wing but wish it were more of a romcom, this is the film for you. Before creating his series, Aaron Sorkin wrote the screenplay for this Rob Reiner politics-tinged romance about Andrew Shepherd, charmingly played by Michael Douglas, a widowed president and single father running for re-election. When he falls for an environmental lobbyist, Sydney Ellen Wade, played with equal charm by Annette Bening, his advisors tell him to keep her out of the public eye and his rivals start attacking her. Martin Sheen, before he was President Bartlett on The West Wing, plays Shepherd’s chief of staff and best friend, and there is a hint of the television series in the wrangling to get votes for Shepherd’s crime bill to pass through Congress, along with the question of whether he will jeopardise his re-election by supporting an environmental bill. But the most characteristic Sorkin element is the rosy idealism about the possibility of politics to do some good, an idea that makes this a buoyant outlier among more typical, sceptical 1990s political movies.

Alamy (Credit: Alamy)Alamy

8. The Ides of March (2011) dir George Clooney

This dynamic film starring Ryan Gosling and George Clooney, who also directed, didn’t make much of an impact when it was released, possibly because its story, with a whiff of the Clinton sex scandals, might have seemed tired during the Obama years. Seen now, it smartly taps into the persistent theme of lost political innocence, with Gosling as Stephen Meyers, a young but savvy campaign strategist, who goes to work for Mike Morris (Clooney) a politically gifted governor running for president. Philip Seymour Hoffman plays Stephen’s jaded boss and Paul Giamatti is the manager of a rival campaign in a cast that includes Jeffrey Wright and Marisa Tomei. Evan Rachel Wood plays a young Morris intern, and the very mention of that role is enough to hint that you know where the plot is heading. But the gamesmanship among the candidates, and between the campaigns and the press, is so smart and well-played that the predictability hardly matters.

9. Game Change (2012) dir Jay Roach

You might laugh to keep from crying at this fact-based film about how John McCain’s campaign chose Alaska Governor Sarah Palin as his 2008 running mate, a cynical, haphazard move that backfired in every possible way. Jay Roach’s comedy-of-errors stays close to reality, based on the reported book by John Heilemann and Mark Halperin, and at times edits actual reporters and politicians into scenes with the actors. Woody Harrelson plays Steve Schmidt, the strategist who insists that McCain (Ed Harris) has to do something game-changing, like choosing a woman, to have a chance of beating Obama. With time running out, and little vetting, they choose the inexperienced but telegenic Palin. Julianne Moore brings Palin to life with remarkable verisimilitude as she captures her odd inflections of language, and with some sympathy for how far she is out of her depth. She is so clueless about foreign affairs, and for that matter foreign countries, that Nicolle Wallace (Sarah Paulson), the director of communications who is trying to guide her through, just gives up. Sobering yet still a romp, this film might be the only silver lining in the whole Palin debacle.

10. Head of State (2003) dir Chris Rock

The Obama presidency was just a gleam in America’s eye when Chris Rock wrote, directed and starred in this comedy as Mays Gilliam, a lowly local politician in Washington, DC who is recruited by the Democrats to run for president when their candidate dies shortly before the election. It’s all a ruse: the party politicians want to get credit for running a black candidate, who is sure to lose, while keeping the spot open for one of their own insiders next term. The joke is on them, of course. Mays is a straight-talking guy, in touch with working people and willing to tell them the no-nonsense truth about everything, pointing to inequities and getting crowds to chant, “That ain’t right!”  Rock’s stand-up comedy is often satiric, but this film is more broadly comic – Bernie Mac plays Mays’ loud, brash brother – and more earnest. It echoes the question raised way back in 1948 by State of the Union: can a truth-teller win? Head of State doesn’t entirely work. It’s distracting when the rapper Nate Dog pops in and out of the film with musical narration. But it is breezy and fun, so ignore that 30 per cent rating on Rotten Tomatoes.

11. Bonus Short: Betty Boop for President (1932) dir Dave Fleischer

Back when the very idea of a woman president was preposterous, Betty Boop ran. The cartoon vamp campaigned with a song in this six-and-a-half-minute animated comedy, with promises of ice cream and shared wealth. “Some of you have money / While some are poor, you know,” she sings. “If you send me to Washington / I’ll just divide the dough.” She imagines herself in front of a split Congress, the elephants on one side and the donkeys on the other disagreeing on everything. The short is a delightful little oddity, but honestly, there have been worse candidates.

Unlock Your Potential: Positive Affirmations for Self-Improvement

The Power of Affirmations: How Words Shape Your Reality

Affirmed to be more than simple positive thinking, affirmations are deeply connected to the brain’s neuroplasticity, the brain’s remarkable ability to reorganize itself by forming new neural connections. By consistently practicing affirmations, individuals can rewire their brains to align with their aspirations. Prior to embarking on the journey of affirmations, it is vital to comprehend the adverse implications of negative self-talk. Engaging in negative self-talk reinforces self-imposed limitations, shaping actions, emotions, and decisions accordingly.

Crafting potent affirmations involves employing positive, personal, and present-tense language. Adopting affirmations in daily routines can yield transformative outcomes, reinforcing the desired beliefs until they become inherent. Pushing through initial resistance is integral, as it signifies the transition from old to new beliefs. As affirmations gradually become intrinsic beliefs, individuals naturally gravitate towards opportunities and environments that align with their objectives. Renée McRae aptly emphasizes, “Words matter, literally.”

The Science Behind Affirmations

Affirmations are deeply rooted in the brain’s ability to reorganize itself through neuroplasticity. Through consistent practice, affirmations forge new neural connections, embedding empowering beliefs in the subconscious mind.

Why Negative Self-Talk Is So Destructive

Negative self-talk perpetuates limiting beliefs, influencing actions, emotions, and decisions detrimentally.

How to Develop Effective Affirmations

Crafting affirmations involves using positive, personal, and present-tense language to reshape beliefs and guide actions towards desired outcomes.

Practicing Affirmations in Daily Life

Incorporating affirmations into daily routines, such as morning reflections, journaling, and setting reminders, reinforces positive beliefs and facilitates transformative shifts in mindset.

9. Amplify Your Positivity: Embracing the Power of Affirmations

The Power of Affirmations: How Words Shape Your Reality

In this enlightening article, the profound influence of affirmations on shaping one’s reality will be explored. Delving into the impact of positive words, readers will uncover the transformative ability hidden within affirmations.

The Science Behind Affirmations

Affirmations transcend mere positive thinking, delving into the realm of neuroplasticity. The brain’s capacity to rewire itself based on repetitive thoughts and experiences forms the foundation of affirmations. With consistent practice, affirmations forge new neural connections, embedding empowering beliefs into the subconscious mind.

Negative Self-Talk and Its Consequences

Before embracing affirmations, understanding the detrimental effects of negative self-talk is paramount. Each instance of self-limiting phrases like “I can’t” or “This is impossible” reinforces restricting beliefs. By replacing such discourse with positive affirmations, individuals can craft a new narrative, fostering growth and empowerment.

Crafting Effective Affirmations

Crafting compelling affirmations requires a blend of positivity, personalization, and staying in the present moment. By focusing on desires rather than limitations, using “I” statements, and employing the present tense, individuals can create impactful affirmations that resonate deeply.

Incorporating Affirmations into Daily Routine

Practical strategies for integrating affirmations into daily life are key to their efficacy. Starting the day with affirmations during a morning routine, documenting affirmations in a journal for reinforcement, and setting up reminders throughout the day are effective methods to ensure consistent practice.

Impact of Affirmations on Reality

Through dedicated practice, the influence of affirmations on daily life becomes evident. As alignment between affirmations and subconscious beliefs occurs, individuals may experience heightened confidence, newfound opportunities, and an enhanced sense of purpose. The manifestation of affirmations into deeply ingrained beliefs facilitates a natural progression towards goals and aspirations.

By harnessing the power of affirmations, individuals can steer their reality towards positivity and growth. Through intentional repetition of empowering words, the transformative potential of affirmations unfolds, paving the way for a life aligned with one’s deepest desires.
