Prime TV are re-running the David Bowie: Five Years doco at 8.30pm tonight. From a review:
What this film does is tell Bowie’s ascent to mega-stardom in five different years of his career. The first is about Bowie as the glam-rock superstar Ziggy Stardust while the second year focuses on his flirtation with Philadelphia soul music and his Thin White Duke persona. The third is about Bowie’s Berlin trilogy with Brian Eno while the fourth year is about the making of his 1980 album Scary Monsters and the groundbreaking videos he would make for two of its singles. The fifth and final year is about Let’s Dance and becoming part of the mainstream after being known as a cult artist.

The inability of even seasoned decision-makers to properly assess risks and benefits is astounding. What does he think cannabis can do to patients? Panadol is hugely more dangerous.
National’s 100% political “no decriminalisation” line in the sand
Yep, it's all about politics - not the evidence or what would benefit people's wellbeing the most.

Story picked up on Stuff - and good on them for actually linking to the source blogpost. Unscientific reader poll results also interesting.

in speculating on potential for abuse and diversion, I think the committee went beyond its own expertise
