determined “according to [its] effects, medical uses, and potential for abuse” (Claim V). In this classification system, marijuana is a Schedule I drug, grouped with heroin, LSD, hashish, methaqualone, and designer drugs. These are drugs having “unpredictable effects, and [causing] severe psychological or physical dependence, or death” (Claim V). A closer analysis of the DEA's Federal Scheduling system reveals that, according to various studies by physicians on both sides of the legalization debate
Children's Story Puss in Boots A close examination of the tale type 545-b (according to Aarne and Thompson) (1) reveals a well known, almost universal tale of man and animal helper. There are many consistencies between western tradition and Central Asian renditions. Several themes are parallel yet cultural influences vary some of the plot details. The political and social structures of the time in which these stories were told shape these details and lays the background for the story. The most
Introduction The intent of this paper is to perform an analysis of the cable industry's external environment. The first sections of the document will discuss environmental scanning and define the telecommunication niche that is currently occupied by cable operators such as Comcast. The next section will identify the macroeconomic variables that currently impact cable operators and will compare two variables to two corresponding industry variables. The final section of the paper will identify some

The Biopharmaceutics Classification System (BCS) is a scientific framework that is used to classify the drug substances on the basis of their intestinal permeability and aqueous solubility . BCS is known as a drug product regulation tool for scale-up and post-approval challenges in worldwide . The objective of the BCS is to provide a regulatory tool to predict in vivo performance of drug products by conducting in vitro dissolution tests or measurements of permeability and solubility.
