Inundated with medical-marijuana patient applications, Colorado's health department has changed one way it handles the flood of paperwork. Read more:

Starting April 1, health department workers will no longer review applications submitted at the department's walk-up window to make sure they are complete before accepting them. In a news release, the health department said that practice unfairly gave walk-up applications priority and contributed to a backlog of mailed-in applications.

The department has been receiving about 1,000 applications per workday, nearly quadruple the number it was receiving per day over the summer, according to the release.

The lag between when an application is received and when a license is issued has now stretched to six months. The department is awaiting legislative approval of funding to add temporary workers to help with the backlog.

PHOENIX - State senators voted Tuesday to let anyone who can legally have a weapon carry it under a jacket, in a purse or otherwise hidden.

The bill requires a final roll-call vote before going to the House.

Chinese Fluoride In Mass. Water Raises Concern

"I don't know what it is," Desmarais said. "It's not soluble, and it doesn't appear to be sodium fluoride. So we are not quite sure what it is."

Desmarais said the residue clogs his machines and makes it difficult to get a consistent level of fluoride in the town's water.

Since April the fluoride pumps in Amesbury have been turned off and they will stay that way until Desmarais can find out what's in the fluoride that's imported from China.

Why the Treasonous Patriot Act Was Renewed

The Patriot Act wasn’t renewed to protect you from terrorists.
The Patriot Act was renewed to protect the power elite from you.
It is a law that can and likely will be used to quell political dissent.
It is a law meant to frighten people into silence as more and more common folk are labeled “terrorist” by the corporate controlled media.
It is a law meant to terrorize people into obedience and quiescence as they run rough shod over the Bill of Rights and dismantle any semblance of a true republic we once might have enjoyed.
It is a law that can even be used, if push comes to shove, to imprison anyone who dares challenge the politically powerful, even if that challenge comes in the form of using the political process, simply by labeling such a person as a “terrorist” or accusing them of being involved with any group labeled a “terrorist” organization.
