This document presents a history of marijuana legalization and argues for its legalization. It discusses how marijuana was made illegal in the 1930s and the myths around its dangers that are not supported by evidence. The document claims that prohibition has failed and legalizing marijuana could generate tax revenue while reducing crime. In summary, it advocates for legalizing, regulating, and taxing marijuana to generate billions for the government while decreasing criminal activity and prison populations.
The document discusses the history, health effects, legal status, and economic impacts of marijuana legalization. It notes that marijuana has been used medically for centuries, but frequent recreational use can negatively impact memory and lung health. Currently, several states have legalized medical marijuana despite federal prohibition. Legalizing and taxing marijuana could generate billions in tax revenue while reducing enforcement costs and freeing law enforcement resources. The document argues prohibition has failed to curb use and arrests, and legalization could curb criminal networks while boosting local economies.
Marijuana refers to the dried leaves and flowers from the Cannabis Sativa plant, which contains the psychoactive chemical THC. It is most commonly smoked in joints or pipes, but can also be consumed in food or tea. Short term effects include altered perception and increased appetite, while long term use may negatively impact memory, learning, and lung health. Although it is addictive for some long term or teenage users, many argue that its medical uses for reducing pain and nausea from conditions like cancer outweigh potential negative side effects. Currently, 23 states have legalized medical marijuana, while 4 have legalized both medical and recreational adult use.
Dance involves rhythmic motions performed to music. It is one of the oldest art forms, with origins in worship, courtship, and ceremonies. There are many reasons why people dance, including for fun, recreation, and entertainment. There are several kinds of dancing like folk, social, and theatrical dances. Folk dances are native to specific cultures while social dances are performed in pairs, and theatrical dances are performed for audiences. Elements of dance include theme, design, movement, technique, music, and choreography.
Marijuana is a plant whose flowers and leaves can be dried and consumed. It contains THC which causes intoxication when used. Over 100 million Americans have tried marijuana, and 14 million use it daily despite risks of legal prosecution. Marijuana has medical benefits and can treat conditions like cancer and glaucoma. Legalizing marijuana could generate tax revenue, reduce criminal activity of drug dealers and cartels, and free up law enforcement to focus on more dangerous drugs. The NORML organization advocates for marijuana law reform and educates the public on the benefits of legalizing marijuana.
Marijuana comes from the Cannabis sativa plant. It is most commonly smoked but can also be eaten or drank. While some states have legalized it for medical use, it remains illegal under federal law. Marijuana has both short term and long term health risks for mental and physical health. It can also be addictive for some users. Debate continues around legalizing it for medical or recreational use due to its risks and potential benefits.
Dance is a form of communication that is used in all societies to express both personal and cultural meanings. There are three main categories of dance: artistic, ceremonial, and recreational. The document then provides details on four specific dance styles - ballet, tap, jazz, and modern - describing their origins, characteristic movements, terminology, and costumes. Famous dancers and common dance attire are also mentioned.

The document discusses design guidelines for touchscreen interfaces based on research into how people actually hold and interact with mobile devices. It provides data on finger sizes, common grips, touch targets, and notes that touch interaction is not just about finger size and pinpoint accuracy. The guidelines include making targets visible and tappable, designing for different screen sizes, leaving space for scrolling, and testing interfaces at scale.
The document provides principles for presenting data in the clearest way possible: tell the truth and ensure credibility with data; get to the main point by drawing meaning from the data; pick the right tool like pie, bar, or line graphs depending on the data; highlight what's important by keeping slides focused on conclusions, not all data; and keep visuals simple to avoid distractions.
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive functioning. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms for those who already suffer from conditions like depression and anxiety.

The What If Technique presented by Motivate DesignMotivate Design
Why "What If"...?
The What If Technique tackles the challenge of engaging a creative, disruptive mindset when it comes to design thinking and crafting innovative user experiences.
Thinking disruptively is a disruptive thing to do, which means it's a very hard thing to do, especially when you add in risk-averse business leaders and company cultures, who hold on tight to psychological blocks, corporate lore, and excuse personas that stifle creativity and possibilities (see www.motivatedesign.com/what-if for more details).
The What If Technique offers key steps, tools and examples to help you achieve incremental changes that promote disruptive thinking, overcome barriers to creativity, and lead to big, innovative differences for business leaders, companies, and ultimately user experiences and products.
Let's find out what's what together! Explore your "What Ifs" with us. See www.motivatedesign.com/what-if for details about the What If Technique, studio workshops, the book, case studies and more downloads--including a the sample chapter "Corporate Lore and Blocks to Creativity"

2. Generalità
Bucarest, (Bucuresti in romeno), capitale della Romania, è situata
nella parte sudorientale del Paese in un'area di lievissime
ondulazioni al centro della pianura valacca, tra il Danubio a Sud e
i Carpazi a Nord, ed è attraversata dal fiume Dîmbovita, affluente
dell'Arges, in parte canalizzato, e da un affluente del Dîmbovita, il
Colentina, il cui corso meandriforme si allarga a formare piccoli
laghi anche all'interno del perimetro urbano. La città è divisa in sei
settori amministrativi, a loro volta suddivisi in distretti. È il centro
nevralgico del Paese per quanto riguarda le funzioni
amministrative, ma anche per l'economia e i trasporti. La vita
culturale è animata da un politecnico (fondato nel 1819) e da varie
università statali e private, oltre ad accademie artistiche e
scientifiche, biblioteche, teatri (una ventina) e musei.

3. Storia
Secondo antiche scritture è stata fondata sulla riva del fiume Dâmbovița
nel 1459 da Vlad Ţepeş. Durante la seconda metà del XIX secolo la
popolazione di Bucarest è cresciuta molto rapidamente. La particolare
architettura d'ispirazione francese e l'ambiente culturale cosmopolita
dell'epoca diedero l'appellativo di Piccola Parigi alla città, anche se le
differenze sociali tra un crescente ceto agiato e la massa di poveri
continuarono a crescere.Il 6 dicembre del 1916, la città fu occupata dalle
forze tedesche e la capitale fu trasferita a Iaşi, però la città fu finalmente
liberata nel dicembre del 1918, tornando capitale del Regno di Romania.
Bucarest ha sofferto grosse perdite e distruzioni durante la Seconda
guerra mondiale a causa del terremoto del 1940 e dei bombardamenti da
parte dell'inglesi e americani. Il 30 dicembre 1947, i comunisti giunti al
potere con l'appoggio dell'URSS abolirono la monarchia instaurando una
dittatura comunista che gravitava nell'orbita sovietica.
