<title>NORMLizer - Student Witchhunts</title>
<description><![CDATA[<b>Random student drug testing is an epic failure.</b>
<b>&#160;</b>
In recent years, the US Department of Education has awarded tens of millions in taxpayer dollars to fund controversial student drug-testing programs in public high schools. The result? Teens who attend schools with &ldquo;suspicionless&rdquo; drug-screening programs possess fewer civil liberties than their peers &ndash; and are no less likely to use illicit substances.

&#160;
However, the owner of a well-frequented head shop in Minnesota&rsquo;s fourth-largest city is challenging the analog ban in court, despite the increasing &hellip;<a href="http://hightimes.com/news/mmiller/7370">More</a>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[It&rsquo;s one our great debates &ndash; just how long does pot remain detectable in the body?&#160;A couple of weeks? A month?&#160;Three months?&#160;It&rsquo;s an issue directly impacting drug testing for employment and determines whether a driver busted for a cannabis DUI can be legally regarded as being under the influence &ndash; even if sober when pulled over.

<title>US Air Force Flies High on Spice</title>
<description><![CDATA[The United States Air Force banned the use of synthetic cannabinoid compounds (commonly marketed as Spice or K2) in June 2010 &ndash; some bases even forbid airmen from setting foot in smoke shops known to sell fake pot.

<description><![CDATA[Earlier this year Florida Governor Rick Scott signed a bill into law that would require welfare applicants to pass a drug test before receiving benefits from the state. Scott was adamant that people receiving welfare use drugs at a higher rate than the rest of the population. The governor attempted to make this case in an interview with CNN&rsquo;s T.J. Holmes:
