As you probably already know, Phil May is currently in the hospital after suffering breathing difficulties. He has been diagnosed with COPD, a serious disease affecting the lungs. Phil can beat this, but he needs your help and encouragement. He needs to give up drinking and especially smoking urgently and immediately. Those closest to him believe the best chance he has of doing this is to turn his lifestyle around, and immerse himself again in art, music and writing.

How can you help? Write a personal letter to Phil today. Give him your encouragement. It’s important that he knows that what he does artistically has value and connects with you. Tell him how much his music has meant to you. Explain why you are a fan of the Pretty Things. Write about why a particular Pretty Things song, album or live show has meaning for you. Share your own story of kicking drink, drugs or smoking or of overcoming a potentially deadly illness or disease. Let him know that what he does matters. We feel if Phil returns home to a flood of letters like this, he’ll be inspired to make the changes he needs to make,

What to do: Write your letter today, and mail it to the address below.

Phil May
c/o Ugly Things
PO Box 3021
La Mesa, CA 91944
USA

 All letters will be forwarded unopened to Phil’s home in London. We need LETTERS. Emails or Facebook comments won’t get the job done. Phil is not a computer person; he won’t ever see them. Only a letter has the personal touch that will get our message through. Write today, do not delay. This is your chance to make a difference and help save Phil.

  7. Sufferers whose physicians advocate medical marijuana for sure diseases and power circumstances are exempt from criminal prosecution in states
    that have passed medical marijuana legal guidelines.
    When the Meeting Public Security Committee authorised the invoice
    on a four to 3 vote in January 2010, this marked the first time in United States historical
    past that a invoice legalizing marijuana passed a legislative committee.
    While the laws failed to succeed in the Assembly ground,
    Ammiano said his plans to reintroduce the bill later within the
    12 months, relying on the success of Proposition 19 , the Regulate, Management and Tax Hashish Act.
    In November 2010, California voters rejected Proposition 19
    , by a vote of 53.5% to forty six.5%, an initiative that will have made possession and cultivation of
    hashish for recreational usage authorized for adults the age of 21 or older, and
    would regulate it equally to alcohol.

    California was the primary state to determine a medical marijuana program, enacted by Proposition 215 in 1996 and Senate
    Invoice 420 in 2003. Nevertheless, cannabis dispensaries throughout the state accept suggestions, with an embossed license, from a doctor who has given the patient an examination and believes hashish could be beneficial for their ailment.
    Possess, transport, process, purchase, receive, or give away, with none compensation in anyway, no more
    than one ounce of dry cannabis or eight grams concentrated hashish to adults the
    age of 21 or older. Possess, plant, domesticate, harvest,
    dry, or process no more than six dwell plants and the produce of
    these plants in a personal residence, in a locked space
    not seen from regular view, in compliance with all local ordinances.

    When Proposition 215 and California Senate Invoice 420 handed within the state of California, individuals searching for to use marijuana for medical functions grew to become in a position to be issued a
    suggestion from a licenced medical practitioner for the authorized use of
    cannabis. Doctors and physicians difficulty these prop
    215 suggestions in lieu of a writing a prescription, since marijuana just isn’t federally authorized.

    A recommendation, often merely known as a rec,”
    (but also commonly quoted as a Prop 215 card/certification) is a
    health care provider-issued transcript that is recognized statewide, and it’s what you will want in order
    to legally access MMJ dispensaries and collectives.

    After getting an evaluation, and assuming that you simply qualify (which, like we stated, isn’t very exhausting),
    a 420 physician will problem you a advice. It permits an individual to each access and order from dispensaries and supply companies, and also protects them legally.
    This program assigns an ID number to the patient, that’s then registered to the California Department of Public Health database, which might be accessed on-line for quick verification. If you
    want to know extra about them, we’ll suggest a
    third get together service in the next sectoin that gives completely confidential hashish evaluations, suggestions, and
    ID playing cards for only $39.

    Both your suggestion and card can be valid for one year, regardless
    of in the event you get it immediately from a stroll-in analysis or
    on-line. When it expires, you’ll need to get a renewal
    with a purpose to legally possess cannabis and access the business in any
    type. Even if you’ve been previously registered with a
    dispensary or a collective, if your paperwork have expired, you’ll have to renew
    them before you go in or place a supply order. That being said, come 2018, when leisure dispensaries start to serve
    the public, you technically will not need a health
    care provider’s advice anymore (though having one will help
    you avoid hefty taxes that will apply to gross sales of leisure weed).

    For those who bought your legal medical paperwork anywhere outdoors of the state of California, they won’t
    be legally recognized. Nevertheless, your California rec will be acknowledged by
    some states the place hashish has been legalized for
    medical use, and you don’t should be a California resident to get a advice here (any U.S.
    issued ID will suffice). So there you have it folks, find
    out how to get a weed card on-line , and easy methods to order hashish delivery immediately afterwards (and do not forget you get a
    $20 free credit score while you use NuggMD to your hashish analysis).
    In potspeak, reciprocity means individuals from California and 26 other states and the District
    of Columbia can simply obtain and use medical
    cannabis in Nevada.

    That is no problem for medical cannabis patients in most medical
    cannabis jurisdictions, the place authorities-issued medical hashish cards
    are necessary to acquire and use medical cannabis.
    In California, most people enter dispensaries with letters or cards printed at doctors’ places of work.
    Based on the California Division of Public Health, 6,667 California Medical Marijuana Identification Cards had been issued in fiscal 12 months 2015-2016.
    They rapidly heard from us in the dispensary group,” mentioned Jeff Grossman, assistant supervisor at The Dispensary in Reno, which,
    he mentioned, serves many Californians visiting
    two nearby destinations, the Peppermill on line casino and Atlantis resort.

    We all know that people fly into Reno and keep on the resorts and resorts,” stated Dunseath, who is also president of the Reno Riverwalk Merchants Affiliation. A novel program licensed by Nevada’s 2014 medical cannabis law permitting certified
    patients from any legal medical cannabis state to
    buy and use medical cannabis in Nevada. In Arizona, Delaware,
    Maine, Michigan, New Hampshire and Rhode Island, reciprocity programs provide authorized protections for out-of-state patients to own medical cannabis in line
    with the boundaries of their residence states however do not enable access to dispensaries.

    The measure removes prison sanctions against those who use medical marijuana underneath
    physician’s orders, though dispensaries and cultivation facilities have yet to be
    developed. Patients who need entry to medical marijuana should apply with the state, together with a written certification from a physician licensed within the state.
    Dispensaries: Nonprofit Hashish Care Facilities might be licensed to distribute
    medical marijuana. Tips passed in 2003 set limits for possession and cultivation of marijuana
    by eligible sufferers and their caregivers.
    Dispensaries: State-licensed dispensaries should not be inside 600 feet of a school and can’t operate for a profit however otherwise
    are regulated at the local stage.

    The amendment to Florida’s Structure , scheduled to take impact on January 1, 2016,
    allows sufferers with a health care provider’s advice to make use
    of marijuana to alleviate signs of sure illnesses and medical situations.

    Possession: Particular limits on amounts but to be decided.
    Possession: Eligible patients with a physician’s approval may possess up to 20 ounces of
    low-THC cannabis oil. Illinois Governor Pat Quinn signed
    House Bill 1 into regulation on Aug. Patients with a health care provider’s
    suggestion must register with the state to take part in the program, which doesn’t
    allow individual cultivation of hashish.

    Even if profitable, sufferers should still be subject to a $one hundred effective and
    a misdemeanor for possession. The law mandates a state-run patient registry and
    permits up to 35 state-licensed (and nonprofit) medical marijuana dispensaries.
    Sicknesses: most cancers; glaucoma; HIV/AIDS; hepatitis C;
    amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS); Crohn’s Disease; Parkinson’s Disease;
    multiple sclerosis; different circumstances determined in writing by the patient’s doctor to be
    alleviated through the use of medical marijuana. Dispensaries:
    Rules for state-licensed medical marijuana therapy facilities are
    but to be established.

    State law doesn’t permit the possession or use of complete
    plant marijuana, nevertheless, simply capsules, oils, tinctures, and other such preparations.
    Possession: DOH is within the means of determining limits,
    however it is probably not a complete-plant form of hashish nor more than a
    30-day supply. The North Dakota Compassionate
    Care Act , or Statutory Measure 5 on the ballot, was authorised by voters by
    a large margin (64 %) on Nov. The legislation requires eligible patients with a physician’s recommendation to
    apply for a state I.D. card in order to lawfully acquire
    their medicine. Of Well being will subject certifications for accredited dispensary candidates.

    Sure, every physician working at DOC420 is licensed.
    You can are available for a free consultation to see if your medical situation qualifies.
    We do not report lists to any state or federal government company, employers,
    or insurance coverage firms. No, we don’t report lists to
    any state or federal authorities company, employers, or insurance coverage corporations.
    Sufferers usually are not required to get a state ID card,
    but it surely supplies an additional measure of safety.
    Patients and caregivers can obtain state ID playing cards by way
    of the well being departments of the county where they stay.

    You will be able to enter any dispensary/collective all through California for the acquisition of medical marijuana.

    Some medical hashish users concern the measure, Proposition 64, would impose
    stricter rules that might have an effect on the place they could consume marijuana and the way
    much marijuana they could grow. If it is
    legalized, extra people who do not respect it and simply need to get excessive are going to make the most of that,” Rice
    said. In relation to allowing leisure cannabis use, response from the medical
    marijuana community ranges from enthusiastic advocacy to passionate opposition — with many left someplace within the
    middle, confused and torn. I’m fully on the fence about
    it,” said Robert Taft, a longtime medical marijuana advocate
    who owns 420 Central licensed medical marijuana dispensary in Santa Ana.

    The proposed ballot initiative would largely prolong the same regulatory
    framework to recreational marijuana production, testing
    and gross sales. Some predict that publish-legalization,
    many California dispensaries would simply have two
    lines: one for sufferers and one for recreational consumers.
    In Colorado, which legalized cannabis in 2012, recreational sales are 60 percent to 70 percent of
    the market. That’s why many of California’s medical marijuana companies welcome legalization: It presents potential to considerably develop their markets.
    As well as, the California pollmeasure would exempt hashish sufferers from paying gross sales taxes, which might help preserve shopper prices down.

    The intent is to keep medical marijuana affordable enough that patients can nonetheless buy it with out making it so
    comparatively low-cost that recreational users will keep in that market, mentioned Richard Miadich, a Sacramento attorney representing the legalization marketing campaign. For those who use marijuana for minor
    health circumstances or to get excessive, Rice said larger costs under legalization could also be
    price it to avoid doctor’s recommendations or authorized issues.

    But for people like her, who use the drug each day to
    operate, those taxes could imply an enormous hit. It is going to make individuals who genuinely want
    medicine not be capable to get it at a reasonable price,” she said.

    In order to truly obtain a medical marijuana advice, you will need to go to your physician,
    as beforehand mentioned. If you need to visit with a health care provider
    through video chat through an official online recommendation program, please click right here For those
    who’d desire to fulfill in individual, a quick
