Weekly: Blogging @ the Speakeasy

Submitted by David Borden on (Issue #483)
Consequences of Prohibition

Along with our weekly in-depth Chronicle reporting, DRCNet has since late summer also been providing daily content in the way of blogging in the Stop the Drug War Speakeasy, as well as Latest News links (upper right-hand corner of most web pages), event listings (lower right-hand corner) and other info. Check out DRCNet every day to stay on top of the drug reform game!

Chronicle editor Phil Smith was traveling most of this week, and so most of this week's blogging was done by content editor Scott Morgan. Scott contributed "ONDCP Admits Exaggerating Marijuana Potency," "Wanna Beat a Drug Test? Switch From Pot to Oxycodone," and "False Positives: The Dark Secret of the Drug Testing Regime."

Also joining us this week was Univ. of Las Vegas professor Randall Shelden, who contributed "Review of Lies, Damned Lies and Drug War Statistics by Matt B. Robinson and Renee G. Scherlen (SUNY Press, 2007)."

Check them out at http://stopthedrugwar.org/speakeasy -- we encourage you to post comments.

Also check out our "In the Trenches" activist feed for a plethora of press releases, action alerts, job listings and other interesting items reposted from many allied organizations around the world. And please join our Reader Blogs where you can become an author in the DRCNet community too.

Thanks for reading, and writing...
