FCC Votes to Begin Crafting `Net Neutrality’ Rules
Oct 22 12:42 PM US/Eastern

AP Technology Writer
WASHINGTON (AP) – Federal regulators took an important step Thursday toward prohibiting broadband providers from favoring or discriminating against certain kinds of Internet traffic.
Despite the concerns of telecommunications companies and the agency’s two Republicans, the Federal Communications Commission voted to begin writing so-called “network neutrality” regulations. Proponents say the rules would prevent phone and cable companies from abusing their control over the market for broadband access.
FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski said regulations are needed to ensure that broadband subscribers can access all legal Web sites and services, including Internet calling applications and video sites that compete with the broadband companies’ core businesses.

Information on Substance Abuse: Is Marijuana Bad for You and Should It Be Legalized?
Question by Catherine: Is marijuana bad for you and should it be legalized?
I’m doing a report on substance abuse: Marijuana. And I would like to get as many people’s points of view as possible on the subject.
Feel free to answer any of the following with support to defend you’re response whether it is in support or against. Please state your age and the state you live in if you respond.
1) Is marijuana really bad for you?
2) Should Marijuana be legalized?
3) Compared to marijuana…it seems as though most drugs that ARE legal (alcohol, prescription pills, caffeine, etc.) are abused just as often if not more and are even worse for your health. Marijuana is a plant that is grown just like every other plant, it really is not that bad. TRUE OR FALSE *this is basically my view point on it*
4. Any other information about Marijuana (whether it’s about substance abuse, statistics, or personal expieriences or facts) is always wanted as well.
