The six state-licensed growers and sellers for New Jersey medical marijuana patients have just been announced by the state health department.
The list of dispensaries, known as "alternative treatment centers," or ATCs, in New Jersey, as reported by Susan K. Livio at NJ.com, is as follows:
• Breakwater Alternative Treatment Center Corp., Manalapan, Monmouth County • Compassionate Care Centers of America Foundation Inc., New Brunswick, Middlesex County • Compassionate Care Foundation Inc., Bellmawr, Camden County • Compassionate Sciences, INc., either Burlington or Camden County • Foundation Harmony, Secaucus, Hudson County • Greenleaf Compassion Center, Montclair, Essex County
The state health department released the list of winning applicants on Monday, despite the Legislature's intent to repeal the medical marijuana program rules draft by the Christie Administration.
Many patient advocates in the Garden State believe the rules as proposed are far too restrictive and patient-unfriendly, and lawmakers seem to agree. The law's sponsors in the Senate said they would rather overturn the proposed rules and start over, delaying the start of the program, then allow such restrictive regulations to move forward.
The New Jersey Compassionate Use Marijuana Act requires the health department to license two alternative treatment centers in the northern part of the state, two in the central part and two in the southern part of the state, for a total of six centers. All must be incorporated as nonprofits, according to state rules.
Health and Senior Services Commissioner Poonam Alaigh said she expects the centers, in addition to growing, packaging and selling cannabis, to also track patient data, including which strains they are using, how much, and the medical "outcome" -- the benefits and side effects of using medicinal cannabis.
New Jersey required prospective dispensary operators to pay a $20,000 application with the promise the state would return all but $2,000 to candidates which were not selected. Applicants had to show the centers' proposed location is not in a drug-free school zone, and either conforms to local zoning or applicants have applied for a variance to permit the operation, according to the bidding rules.

Man the last few days have been pretty progressive and inspiring. I have been closely working with a college student by the name of brady. real cool kid workin hard to make it in the film circuit. We shot a short doc over two days of filming. meeting up with brady was cool...he possessed alot of qualities of a focused n film oriented person....cigarettes and a will to do it...lol. Filming locations were actually at a local pool hall and also bradys home. I got a moment to meet the rest of his family who were all real cool and nice people. They welcomed me very much and i was happy to have been able to be a part of the documentary and more so a part of helping another person strive towards their goals. THANKS BRADY.

WHAT HAPPENED?--(via topics.nytimes.com)
One of the poorest and least developed countries in the world, Haiti in recent years has struggled with problems ranging from near-constant political upheaval, health crises, severe environmental degradation and an annual barrage of hurricanes, which killed an estimated 800 people and caused vast damage in 2008.
On Jan. 12, 2010, a massive earthquake struck Haiti, reducing much of its capital to rubble. It was the worst earthquake in the region in more than 200 years, with thousands feared dead. The devastation created serious obstacles to those attempting to deliver promised foreign aid.
United States Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton told NBC's "Today" program that 3 million people - about a third of Haiti's population - had been affected by the quake, and that "there will be tens of thousands of casualties - we don't have any exact numbers."
Haiti occupies an area roughly the size of Maryland on the Caribbean island of Hispaniola, which it shares with the Dominican Republic. Nearly all of the 8.7 million residents are of African descent and speak Creole and French. The capital is Port-au-Prince.
The country is, by a significant margin, the poorest in the Western Hemisphere, with four out of five people living in poverty and more than half in abject poverty. Deforestation and over-farming have left much of Haiti eroded and barren, undermining subsistence farming efforts, driving up food prices and leaving the country even more vulnerable to natural disasters. Its long history of political instability and corruption has added to the turmoil.
I CAN CONFIRM THAT THIS IS WYCLEF'S HAITI FOUNDATION AND THAT THE MONEY IS DEFINITELY GOING TO THE RIGHT PLACE. Many people have already reached out to see what they can do right now. We are asking those interested to please do one of two things: Either you can use your cell phone to text “Yele” to 501501, which will automatically donate $5 to the Yele Haiti Earthquake Fund (it will be charged to your cell phone bill), or you can click here to DONATE.
Thank you, Wyclef
The regular Yele Haiti website will resume in a couple of weeks. In the meantime our focus is on providing real-time information about the situation in Haiti.

Reactions from Various Celebrities and fans Michael Jacksons name earned respect in many different circles.....
Quincy Jones-"For Michael to be taken away from us so suddenly at such a young age, I just don't have the words. Divinity brought our souls together on The Wiz and allowed us to do what we were able to throughout the '80s. To this day, the music we created together on Off the Wall, Thriller, and Bad is played everywhere in the world and the reason for that is he had it all...talent, grace, professionalism and dedication. He was the consumate entertainer and his contributions and legacy will be felt upon the world forever.I've lost my little brother today and part of my soul has gone with him."
Sean “Diddy” Combs says: “Michael Jackson showed me that you can actually see the beat. He made the music come to life!! He made me believe in magic. I will miss him.”
Star Jones: Death comes to all. But great achievements build a monument." He IS and WAS the greatest entertainer of all times...Peace to you brother.
Ice T: Rest In Peace Mike. People can say what they want but you were 100% original. WE will always love , miss & remember your GREATNESS.
Smokey Robinson--The world is mourning the loss of his talent and people will miss his music. Michael Jackson was one of the most intense, dynamic talents to ever live. When I was in London recently, the whole buss was about those 50 concerts. He was still Michael Jackson."
Talib Kweli tweets: “RIP Michael Jackson. Greatest performer ever.”
Busta Rhymes mourns: “GOD BLESS THE JACKSON FAMILY...BE STRONG AND OUR PRAYERS AND BEST WISHES GO OUT 2 THE JACKSON FAMILY!!!!!TO THE MAXIMUM LEVELS!!! MICHAEL JACKSON UR THE GREATEST TALENT EVER KNOWN 2 MANKIND.R.I.P. & GOD BLESS.”
Russell Simmons--"Michael Jackson was my generation's most iconic cultural hero. Courageous, unique and incredibly talented. He'll be missed greatly."
Fabolous writes: "If it is true, We need 2 celebrate this man's incredible music career.. the things we saw him do, records hit broke, hits he made.. Legend… Ed McMahon, Farrah Fawcett, & now Michael Jackson.... I really cant believe Michael Jackson is dead. Michael Jackson dying is so crazy. i actually feel a lil' f&*ked up inside.. As a kid i idolized Michael Jackson. R.I.P to the King of Pop.”
Actress Lauren London --- “Michael Jackson?!. It feels like someone called me and told me a family member passed away. Since I could remember...there was always MJ.”
Madonna: I can't stop crying over the sad news. I have always admired Michael Jackson. The world has lost one of the greats, but his music will live on forever! My heart goes out to his three children and other members of his family. God bless.
Justin Timberlake: I can't find the words right now to express how deeply saddened I am by Michael's passing," the pop-R&B hitmaker wrote. "We have lost a genius and a true ambassador of not only Pop music but of all music. He has been an inspiration to multiple generations and I will always cherish the moments I shared with him on stage and all of the things I learned about music from him and the time we spent together. My heart goes out to his family and loved ones.
Chris Brown: Rest in Peace, The Legendary Michael Jackson - the greatest entertainer ever!
Rihanna: Truely saddened, hopefully the rumors aren't true.... :( not believing anything until it's confirmed.
Jane Fonda: I am stunned. My friend, Michael Jackson is dead. He lived with me for a week on "Golden Pond" set
BEYONCE-"This is such a tragic loss and a terrible day. The incomparable Michael Jackson has made a bigger impact on music than any other artist in the history of music. He was magic. He was what we all strive to be. He will always be the king of pop! Life is not about how many breaths you take, but about how many moments in life that take your breath away. For anyone who has ever seen, felt, or heard his art, we are all honored to have been alive in this generation to experience the magic of Michael Jackson. I love you Michael." -
John Mayer- I think we'll mourn his loss as well as the loss of ourselves as children listening to Thriller on the record player. Dazed in the studio. A major strand of our cultural DNA has left us. RIP MJ.
Ludacris- If it were not for Micheal Jackson I would not be where or who I am today.His Music and Legacy will live on Forever.Prayers to the famR.I.P.
Questlove, The Roots: Im am devastated over this but we all have memories. i just hope that he will get due justice in all the press memorials and whatnot. i know he was mired in controversy the last decade of his life but i think its time we let him rest in peace and learn to separate the ART and the ARTIST. --that is the MJ i will forever remember.
Wyclef Jean "music god. he made me believe that all things are possible and through positive music he will live forever."
