A Rhode Island woman suffering from Multiple Sclerosis becomes the first person to apply for state permission to legally use Marijuana under a new law that was passed in her state. Rhode Island is now one of the few states in the U.S. to allow the use of marijuana for medicinal purposes. In order to apply for state permission a person must have a serious medical condition and provide certification from a doctor in their state that says that use of marijuana may be helpful for the patient. Organizations such as the SSDP are working hard to make this law possible in more states to allow ill and dying patients to receive relief and the medicines that doctors prescribe to them.
Lawmakers have approved a sweeping health care
reform package that dramatically expands coverage for the
state's uninsured, a bill that backers hope will become a model
for the rest of the nation

More controversy in Iraq after claims that
members of a new al-Qaida-affiliated group dragged the
burning body of a U.S. pilot out of an Apache Helicopter.
The helicopter was supposedly shot down by the gunmen and
footage of the groups actions were said to have been
recorded and released to the public. U.S. officials are said
to have doubts about whether this is really true. The U.S.
command confirmed that the helicopter was an Apache and that
the two crew members were "presumed dead," suggesting the
remains had not been found. Later the same day, U.S.
authorities said the bodies had been recovered. So if the
bodies of the U.S. troops were recovered where did the
bodies recorded on the tape come from?
