Are you a fan of DRCNet, and do you have a web site you'd like to use to spread the word more forcefully than a single link to our site can achieve? We are pleased to announce that DRCNet content syndication feeds are now available. Whether your readers' interest is in-depth reporting as in Drug War Chronicle, the ongoing commentary in our blogs, or info on specific drug war subtopics, we are now able to provide customizable code for you to paste into appropriate spots on your blog or web site to run automatically updating links to DRCNet educational content.
For example, if you're a big fan of Drug War Chronicle and you think your readers would benefit from it, you can have the latest issue's headlines, or a portion of them, automatically show up and refresh when each new issue comes out.
If your site is devoted to marijuana policy, you can run our topical archive, featuring links to every item we post to our site about marijuana -- Chronicle articles, blog posts, event listings, outside news links, more. The same for harm reduction, asset forfeiture, drug trade violence, needle exchange programs, Canada, ballot initiatives, roughly a hundred different topics we are now tracking on an ongoing basis. (Visit the Chronicle main page, right-hand column, to see the complete current list.)
If you're especially into our new Speakeasy blog section, new content coming out every day dealing with all the issues, you can run links to those posts or to subsections of the Speakeasy.
Click here to view a sample of what is available -- please note that the length, the look and other details of how it will appear on your site can be customized to match your needs and preferences.
Please also note that we will be happy to make additional permutations of our content available to you upon request (though we cannot promise immediate fulfillment of such requests as the timing will in many cases depend on the availability of our web site designer). Visit our Site Map page to see what is currently available -- any RSS feed made available there is also available as a javascript feed for your web site (along with the Chronicle feed which is not showing up yet but which you can find on the feeds page linked above). Feel free to try out our automatic feed generator, online here.

Medicinal cannibas use featured on popular Soap
I am very proud of all the writers and producers of the soap "General Hospital" as they have integrated the medical/legal issues surrounding the use of marijuanna. Okay, so I watch the soaps. I'm here to tell you that they are doing a good thing by using this topic in one of the show's by-line stories. I'll try to explain as briefly as possible but it is truely a break-through for those of us, for whatever reason we have, believe that marijuanna should be de-criminalized. In the story, the district attorney gets cancer and starts chemo. In the meantime, her estranged husband, who is suing her for child custody, takes over her job, finds out about her "smoking" pot, and has her arrested. If you think this sounds pretty hokie, it gets much better but I will spare you all the sub-plots (it's pretty good tho). In any case, you can anticipate all the issues surrounding this scenario: a mother who exposes her children to drugs, the affect the "drug" has on her parenting skills, the exposure to criminal elements, and the list goes on. As I said, I' proud of the show for it's efforts; we'll see how they handle the fall-out and the follow through of the story line.
