Medical marijuana is legal in 20 states and the District of Columbia, but there are still use cases that are very controversial, like medical marijuana for children. Some claim it’s a wonder drug for epilepsy, severe autism, and even to quell the harsh side effects of chemotherapy, while others decry pumping marijuana into still-growing bodies. We went to the small town of Pendleton, Oregon, where medical marijuana is legal, to visit Mykayla Comstock, an eight-year-old leukemia patient who takes massive amounts of weed to treat her illness. Her family, and many people we met along the way, believe not only in the palliative aspects of the drug, but also in marijuana’s curative effect—that pot can literally shrink tumors.
Anonghost, pro-Palestinian hackers, last week hacked and defaced one of the subdomains of American Express (cto.americanexpress.com).
The hack occurred under the protest operation #OpGov, in support of Palestine. This operation involved the defacing of government websites all over the world. The following message had also been posted on hacked websites:

An innovative organisation in San Francisco is working to link the world’s digital giants such as Ask.com and Facebook with the poorest and most marginalised people on the planet.
In Dadaab, northern Kenya, lies the largest refugee camp in the world. There, 300,000 displaced people battle for the resources to survive, relying for the most part on hand-outs and aid.
In the middle of the vast and dusty site is a small hut filled with computers where an industrious group of people gather to connect to the outside world.
Working with a US-based non-profit organisation, Samasource, these refugees have been trained in basic computer skills, enabling them to do digitally based work for a company thousands of miles away.
Samasource aims to help provide impoverished people by giving them one of the most basic of human rights: The right to work.
