Drugs can be legal like alcohol, tobacco, and caffeine or illegal like cocaine, meth, cannabis, and heroin. Cocaine is a recreational drug that can be snorted, inhaled, or injected and causes physical symptoms such as loss of contact with reality, a fast heart rate, and enlarged pupils due to its addictive effect on the brain's reward pathway. Tobacco is the main component in cigarettes and dip and gives smokers a greater risk of lung cancer and heart failure despite more than 70 species of tobacco plants existing.

Cocaine teachback
Cocaine is a highly addictive stimulant drug derived from the coca plant. It is classified as a Schedule II drug due to its high potential for abuse and ability to produce short-term effects like euphoria and increased energy. Long-term cocaine use can lead to increased tolerance, severe medical complications involving the heart and brain, and psychological issues like paranoia and psychosis. While millions of Americans use cocaine each year, trafficking remains a serious problem, with cocaine as the second most trafficked drug worldwide according to the document.
Cocaine teachback
Cocaine is derived from the coca plant and is a highly addictive stimulant. It is commonly snorted, smoked, or injected. Cocaine causes a short-term "high" by flooding the brain with dopamine but is followed by feelings of depression. Long-term cocaine use can lead to cardiovascular issues, strokes, seizures and cognitive impairment. While small possession can lead to jail time, large-scale drug trafficking often faces only fines, highlighting the need for reform of anti-drug policies.
Drugs
There are several types of drugs that affect the body in different ways. Stimulants speed up the nervous system and include caffeine and nicotine, while depressants slow it down and include alcohol and cannabis. Narcotics act like depressants but target the brain. Antibiotics kill bacteria but not other cells, and are often made by fungi. Heroin is highly addictive and withdrawal can cause vomiting, sweating and pain. Alcohol is also depressant and drinking too much can kill through organ damage or water imbalance in the body. Cigarette smoke contains nicotine, tar and other carcinogens that are addictive and damage lungs and blood vessels, raising cancer and heart risks.

Smoking has numerous immediate health effects on the body that begin with the first cigarette. It rapidly causes addiction through changes in brain chemistry and increases stress levels. It also immediately irritates the respiratory system by causing bronchospasm, increased mucus production, and persistent coughing. Additionally, smoking immediately harms the cardiovascular system by adversely changing lipid profiles, accelerating atherosclerosis, and increasing thrombosis - all of which raise the risk of heart disease and stroke.

The document discusses psychoactive substances and their effects. It describes that psychoactive substances are capable of altering normal brain function and consciousness by interacting with the central nervous system. It categorizes psychoactive drugs into four main types: depressants, stimulants, opioids, and hallucinogens. Depressants like alcohol and benzodiazepines slow brain activity while stimulants like cocaine and amphetamines increase it. Opioids relieve pain by interacting with opioid receptors.

CocaineA powerfully addictive psychoactive chemica
Cocaine is a powerfully addictive stimulant derived from the coca plant. It has been used for centuries in South America but became widely popular in the late 19th century. Cocaine can be consumed in several ways including snorting, rubbing on gums, injecting, and smoking crack cocaine. Cocaine is highly addictive and use can lead to numerous negative health effects such as increased heart rate, seizures, strokes, and overdose. Long term use changes the brain's reward system and makes it very difficult to stop using cocaine.

Science
Science is the systematic study of the structure and behavior of the physical and natural world through observation and experiment. Some careers in science include meteorologist, geochemist, ecologist, volcanologist, science illustrator, and oceanographer. The scientific method involves asking a question, making observations, forming a hypothesis, experimentation, collecting data, analyzing results, and communicating findings. Physical models represent systems visually, mathematical models use mathematical concepts and graphs, and conceptual models represent systems through interrelated concepts. Scientific theories are well-substantiated explanations based on repeated observations, while scientific laws describe what happens in nature without explaining why.
Wind turbines
Wind turbines convert the kinetic energy of wind into electrical energy. They work by using blades caught by the wind to spin a shaft connected to a generator. Wind turbines can catch fire due to flammable materials near hot or faulty machinery and wiring, and high winds can spread any fires. There are two main types of wind turbines: horizontal axis turbines with blades parallel to the ground and vertical axis turbines with blades perpendicular to the ground.

Lego
Lego is a line of plastic construction toys manufactured by The Lego Group. The toys consist of colorful interlocking plastic bricks that can be assembled in various ways to build objects, vehicles, buildings, and working robots. The Lego Group began in 1932 when a Danish carpenter started making wooden toys and expanded into plastic toys in 1947. Lego bricks from 1958 are still compatible with modern bricks, allowing for creative building across generations. The bricks are made through an injection molding process using strong ABS plastic and are designed to have nearly perfect interlocking connections while withstanding millions of possible combinations.
Apollo 11
Apollo 11 was the first mission to land astronauts on the Moon. It launched on July 16, 1969 carrying astronauts Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, and Michael Collins aboard a Saturn V rocket. The Saturn V had three stages - the S-IC first stage burned for 150 seconds, the S-II second stage burned for 367 seconds, and the S-IVB third stage burned for 475 seconds. Armstrong and Aldrin spent just under 8 days in space, including 2 hours and 31 minutes on the lunar surface, while Collins remained in lunar orbit aboard the command module.
How did WW2 start
The Battle of Westerplatte was the first battle of World War 2 in Europe. On September 1st, 1939, Germany began its invasion of Poland by bombarding the Polish garrison at Westerplatte, which was defended by 182 soldiers and 27 civilians. The Poles held off the German attacks for over a week with concealed firing positions and howitzer fire, inflicting casualties on the Germans. After days of bombardment by naval and artillery fire as well as air raids, the besieged Polish garrison surrendered on September 7th after running low on supplies, having defended Westerplatte bravely for over a week.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.
