In an article last week we asked who drinks the most coffee. It turns out what matters is the number of people in a nation who are drinking coffee more so that per capita coffee consumption. Thus the USA is the hands down winner in the race to consumer the most coffee.
The USA consumes the most coffee followed by Germany Japan and France. What these nations lack in per capital consumption they make up for in population size.
But among the whole list of coffee drinking countries, where are the real coffee drinkers? In general the farther north you go the more coffee people drink.

Will the coronavirus and after effects cause marijuana legalization to jump forward or fall back, read this https://cannabis.net/blog/opinion/will-covid19-push-back-or-move-up-cannabis-legalization-at-the-federal-and-state-level
Since the Government published its Coronavirus recovery strategy, we have been moving quickly through the relaxation of lockdown in ‘steps’ and are now celebrating the large milestone at which non-essential businesses are permitted to reopen, if they can become “Covid Secure”. Now at Step 2, it is starting to feel like the return to normality of sorts, albeit with one-way systems, queues to enter shops and Perspex screens.
But how do we expect the high street and retailers to fare? what role will local communities play in the near future? and how will the role and behaviours that brands have taken during the pandemic affect consumer behaviour?
Posterscope’s latest article ‘All Hail Retail’ looks at SHOP in the NEAR, focusing on all these questions along with the role OOH can play in reaching these shoppers in the right locations in a dynamic, agile and relevant way.
There is no doubt that shopping as we know it, will remain changed for some time yet. Appetite is of course there; we will simply see retailers adapting and evolving to ensure customer safety.
One thing for certain, is that while there will be both winners and losers on the high street, more importantly, there will be opportunities for new businesses to develop and succeed – let’s not forget that after crisis follows a period of rapid innovation… and so we should be positive in expecting new businesses, new approaches, and new experiences on our High Streets.

Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex System Analysis, S...Oleg Kshivets
RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

Child trafficking and forced labor are not to be put on the consumer's shoulders

Cannabis Slavery in Scotland – Who’s to Blame?

https://cannabis.net/blog/opinion/cannabis-slavery-in-scotland-whos-to-blame 4/15
Everybody knows that “DRUGS” is the world’s largest and most profitable illicit market.
However, do you know what the second largest black market is?
If you guessed “guns” – guess again. The second largest black market on the planet trailing behind the illicit drug market
is human trafficking!
Pulling in an estimated $150 billion annually in profits for traffickers – human trafficking is a robust and highly profitable
market, which is evil to its core.
Trafficking involves “transporting someone into a situation of exploitation.” This includes, forced labor, prostitution,
organ removal, forced marriages. These are what we refer to as “Modern Slavery”.
I would add in “Drug prisoners” as another form of modern slavery, but this is not the point of this article.
4. 7/14/2021 Cannabis Slavery in Scotland - Who's to Blame?
https://cannabis.net/blog/opinion/cannabis-slavery-in-scotland-whos-to-blame 5/15
You may be asking by now, what is the point of this article? What does human trafficking have to do cannabis?
Well, I felt the need to preface this piece with human trafficking because of the story I’m about to tell you about human
trafficking and cannabis in a place called Scotland.
Cannabis and Child Trafficking in Scotland
Alex-Cole-Hamilton, a Liberal Democratic Politician and Member of Parliament for Edinburgh Scotland. He recently
wrote an article in the Edinburgh News
(https://www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/news/opinion/columnists/cannabis-the-ugly-truth-about-child-slavery-in-
secret-farms-in-scotland-cannot-be-ignored-by-users-alex-cole-hamilton-msp-3297817) where he outlines the “ugly truth
about child slavery in hidden cannabis farms in Scotland”.
In the article, the politician points out that within the illegal cannabis industry, these illegal players traffic children
typically from Southeast Asia to the UK, and force them into tending cannabis farms.
These conditions are often dismal and even the thought of trafficking someone to grow weed is quite unsettling.
Up until this point I was 100% on board with Cole-Hamilton’s position on human trafficking – we should totally not do it!
The problem comes when he wanted to shift the blame on consumers.
“This is of course true, but there is another aspect to this story and one that will make uncomfortable reading for many people
who enjoy cannabis and believe it to be harmless to themselves and the world around them.”
This statement is something that is often used by politicians when talking about cannabis. “People think that cannabis is
harmless to themselves and the world around them…”
This is a naïve outlook on life. Anybody with an ounce of understanding knows that for you to wear those cheap
commodities or enjoy the latest iPhone, in all likeliness – there was some form of child labor involved.
5. 7/14/2021 Cannabis Slavery in Scotland - Who's to Blame?
https://cannabis.net/blog/opinion/cannabis-slavery-in-scotland-whos-to-blame 6/15
Corporations do a damn fine job at keeping consumers ignorant of the dismal realities of production, but the fact of the
matter is that most people who work in “production facilities” do so for $1 a day or less.
If this is acceptable within a legal market – it comes to no surprise that within the illegal market, implementing modern
slavery is the cheaper alternative. There are no regulations.
However, is this the responsibility of the consumer? Should the consumer “stop consuming” simply because this is
happening?
This is what we’re talking about in today’s article – who’s to blame for the bloodshed and pain within the illegal
cannabis industry?
Politicians will always blame YOU!
Cole-Hamilton’s position isn’t anything new – politicians have long been playing the “you’re responsible for our fuckups
card”.
This is why “you’re carbon footprint” is so important these days!
Because while the major corporations continue to consume our clean water, destroy our forests, make barren our
earth, all in the name of profits; you’re the despicable fuck who is destroying earth!
Oh, and forget about asking about the carbon emissions of the military, that’s on a “need to know basis” and you sure as
hell don’t need to know!
Just keep on believing that you’re the scum of the earth and the reason why everything is going to shit!
This is politics 101 folks! They did the same with drugs.
The blood of the innocent on your joints
6. 7/14/2021 Cannabis Slavery in Scotland - Who's to Blame?
https://cannabis.net/blog/opinion/cannabis-slavery-in-scotland-whos-to-blame 7/15
Many of you may not be old enough to remember, but in the 1980s-1990s the D.A.R.E campaigns tried every angle to
guilt of shame consumers away from cannabis.
Fortunately, all of their PSAs acted more like commercials to the counter-culture – however, within these narratives you
can find the similar blame strategy unfold.
Politicians would cite the horrific deaths and murders that occur because of the drug trade and make you feel like
“you’re funding all of this”.
In one way, they do have a point. If you buy drugs from the cartel, you’re giving them money that they use to buy guns,
people and politicians.
On the other hand, you didn’t make drugs illegal in the first place. It wasn’t you who sent some of the most lucrative
goods into the underground to be regulated by psychopaths who have no compassion for society.
It wasn’t the consumer that established these laws – it was the politicians!
Don’t Accept the Narrative!
I am writing this article as a means of opening up your eyes to the world that politics work. The politician will always
shift the blame to you; it makes them the “solution”.
The truth is, we should remind politicians that it was they that established the rules of the game. You – the consumer, is
the last link in the supply chain.
Politicians argue that if consumers were to “just not consume drugs” then traffickers simply wouldn’t have people to
sell to, and thus – you’d end the entire illicit trade.
Except, that’s a ludicrous position to take. One could also argue that if we all just stopped drinking soft-drinks and
stopped eating candies, we could significantly reduce Diabetes, hyper tension, etc.

https://cannabis.net/blog/opinion/cannabis-slavery-in-scotland-whos-to-blame 8/15
Similarly, one cannot expect consumers to “end the war on drugs” especially since “consumers were consuming drugs
before the war on drugs even existed!”
Drug consumption predates prohibition, meaning that the “new kid on the block” is prohibition and if anyone simply
“needs to change” – it’s the laws surrounding drugs.
I bet you that if cannabis was legal, regulated and widely available in Scotland – you’d find no trafficked child on a
cannabis field.
