Cancer: Trying to Understand Why Full THC Hemp Oil Works for Some and Not Others
September 13th, 2012Warning: No information that appears on Cryptogon should be considered medical advice.
Most Cryptogon readers will be aware of Rick Simpson, his story and his phoenixtears.ca website. If you’re not, you can head over there and get up to speed.
A few weeks ago, actor Tommy Chong went on CNN and announced that he had prostate cancer and that he was using hemp oil in attempt to cure himself.
He posted some initially encouraging tweets:
16 Jul Tommy Chong ?@tommychong
Did I mention I am 99% cancer free? Thanks to my “medication”. Hemp oil
works but you have to believe…..I believe….tc
13 Jul Tommy Chong @tommychong
Got my blood test results back…the hemp oil is working! PSA down to
2…..yes!
But then, on his 12 September 2012 Pot Cast #3 – A Nice Healthy Stream, he stated:
I went on CNN and I announced to the world that I was going to cure it with pot, with hemp oil. And I want to tell you that after three months of using hemp oil, it hasn’t done a god damned thing. In other words, it’s not working. So, back to the drawing board.
Now, check out the Dennis Hill story:
Biochemist Dennis Hill graduated from the University of Houston and did his Graduate Work at Baylor Medical School. Dennis worked as a Cancer Researcher at the MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston. When Dennis was diagnosed with advanced stage prostate cancer, which had metastasized to other parts of his body, he started researching. Since Dennis has a family history of prostate cancer, and he often witnessed ineffective results while working in cancer research, he felt a new approach was in order.
After researching possible alternatives Dennis ran across information about Rick Simpson using cannabis concentrate, which is an extract of the essential oil which is extracted from marijuana and contains cannabinoids. Simpson was using the oil to treat a wide variety of illness, including cancer. The more Dennis researched, the more he understood how cannabis worked on cancer. He has included 2 papers for the review of anyone interested that go into the science of how cannabis kills cancer. He was determined to give it a try, and decided to tell his doctor that he would be using cannabis concentrate alone for his treatment. He did not want to risk more damage to his body from chemo, so he chose to start the cannabis oil regime without any other treatment.
Dennis is educated, with a sound background in science, and a background in the cancer industry. He stated that the Cannabis Oil killed the cancer, and he is now cancer free. He never underwent any of the standard treatment ie chemo, or radiation. He maintained a healthy diet, and exercise as part of his healing and after care. Dennis worked two jobs while he was treating himself, and never experienced any of the side effects typically associated with standard cancer treatments. He administered 1 tiny dose of the cannabis oil in the AM, and 1 tiny dose of the cannabis oil in the pm, just as Rick Simpson suggests.

What’s going on here?
Why is full THC hemp oil an apparent miracle cure for some and ineffective for others? Unfortunately, there’s zero consistency in terms of what people are actually taking. The illegal nature of the therapy in many places forces people to do the best they can with whatever material they can obtain.
As far as cancer alternatives, all I know for sure is what worked for me: Black salve (bloodroot) cured occurrences of basal cell carcinoma on my body. SunSpotES cured occurrences of basal cell carcinoma on my body. The medical industry has unleashed a jihad against black salve and, to a lesser extent, Lane Labs, the makers of SunSpot ES. The PSYOP against black salve is one of the most vicious that I’m aware of on any topic, including 9/11. In my experience, the main differences between black salve and SunSpotES is that the SunSpotES costs more, goes slower and is much less painful than black salve.
That’s the extent of my personal, first hand knowledge of successfully curing cancer with alternative therapies.
You don’t know a lot about what goes on behind the scenes with my private contacts with people, but Cryptogon readers are dying of cancer, right now, as you’re reading this. The medical industry is as full of quacks as the alternative side. So, let’s just focus on what has worked for you, or what has worked for someone that you know in real life.

Update: Rick Simpson’s Response to Tommy Chong Situation
I went over to Rick Simpson’s Facebook page and posted the following comment:
Hello Rick,
I was wondering if you had any thoughts on Tomy Chong’s prostate cancer situation?
He just stated on his podcast:
http://sideshownetwork.tv/shows/tc/3357
“I went on CNN and I announced to the world that I was going to cure it with pot, with hemp oil. And I want to tell you that after three months of using hemp oil, it hasn’t done a god damned thing. In other words, it’s not working. So, back to the drawing board.”
Thank you,
Kevin
Rick Simpson (or someone with admin control of that page) responded. Here is what was posted:
Look, I told him what to do but he did not listen and I doubt he did the treatment properly. Too much work and business, you know, why would he take the time off and do the treatment right from day 1? I also don’t know who he got the oil fr
om and whether the oil was made exactly according to our instructions.I don’t think he took it three times a day, certainly not 60g as instructed, I’d say judging by how played with it in the beginning instead of doing it right. I think he just took some oil at night and thought it is enough. No, it is not.
And I doubt he ever ate a gram of high grade oil a day. I also doubt he took suppositories with the oil, as he was told.That’s what you get when you do not follow the instructions. The medical system has nothing better to offer and if he goes their way, he will get killed sooner or later and the oil will be blamed. Up to him.
He should do the treatment properly and eat another 60g or more, with no experiments like he did. And definitely no surgeries or ultrasound, it is not necessary.
The way I look at it, he did not take the treatment properly. To me he is just another guy who thought he can do it ‘his way’, which he did. Plus, I don’t know what his doctors told him and if he got his PSA readings from at least two sources in one day – he would not be the first one to get false data from them.
Anyway, it is up to him what he does. I would continue to pound the oil in me three times a day, plus I would use the oil in suppositories. Dennis Hill cured his prostate cancer with very low doses of the oil, and there is no reason why it should not work for Chong. Unless he is not doing something right. JB

U.S. Marines Headed to Libya
September 13th, 2012Via: AP:
When the Pentagon called out the Marines on Wednesday and dispatched them to Libya, it wasn’t the first wave of an invading force.
Instead, the 50 Marines are part of an elite rapid-response team and they were sent to assess and reinforce security in Libya in the aftermath of the attack in Benghazi that killed the U.S. ambassador there and three other Americans.
Known as a Fleet Antiterrorism Security Team, or FAST, the team’s role is to respond on short notice to terrorism threats and to bolster security at U.S. embassies. They operate worldwide, and the team that went is one of two that are based in Spain.
Russian Nuclear-Powered Ice-Breakers
September 12th, 2012Via: Scientific American:
Russia’s dream to dominate the Arctic will soon get a boost with a nuclear-powered icebreaker designed to navigate both shallow rivers and the freezing depths of the Northern Sea. Last month Rosatomflot, Russia’s atomic fleet, inked a deal to begin construction of a massive new vessel 170 meters long and 34 meters wide. That is 14 meters longer and four meters wider than any of Russia’s other nuclear vessels.
Powered by two “RITM-200” compact pressurized water reactors generating 60MWe, the new model is designed to blast through ice more than 4 meters thick and tow tankers of up to 70,000 tons displacement through Arctic ice fields. Rosatomflot says the vessel would have liquid ballasts allowing it to alter its draught (the depth of the loaded vessel in the water) between 8.5 to 10.8 meters, allowing it to access both Siberian rivers that reach deep into Russia as well as the Northern Sea.

Some Sort of Tracking Data Injected Into World of Warcraft Graphics
September 12th, 2012Via: Tom’s Hardware:
One World of Warcraft gamer has discovered that his screenshots secretly contain user info like the current server IP address, and the time the shot was taken.
ZoomThere’s indication that Activision Blizzard has been watermarking screenshots captured with World of Warcraft’s in-game client application since at least 2008. There’s also indication that Digimarc is the company behind the client’s watermarking tech.
According to reports, these custom marks include user IDs, the time the in-game image was captured, and the IP address of the local World of Warcraft server. Why? Possibly to track down users that are violating Blizzard’s Terms of Service like hacking the game or running a private server.
