thread_title: IS THERE A SINGLE COUNTRY IN THE WORLD WHERE COCAINE IS LEGAL TO USE(EXCEPT IN MEDICAL PURPOSE)

message: I consider http://www.lwl.org/LWL/Jugend/KoopSucht/nl/Repression/index_html#b a reliable source: It's "factum is een tweetalige website met feiten en cijfers rond de drugs- en afhankelijkheidsproblematiek, preventie en het drugsbeleid in Nederland en Duitsland." EN: "Factum is a two language site with facts and figures about the drug-problem and dealing-with-drug-problem, prevention and the drugspolicy in the Netherlands and Germany."
It's funded by the german government, which is clearly against drugs. And I'll explain a bit: "het opportuniteitsprinciepe" is a law that allows the public prosecutor to prosecute it finds important. They have internal guidelines that aim to prosecute drug trade and especially international drug trade. So, allthough it's technically possible to prosecute, in practice it wont happen if you posses up to 0.5gr or a 'one day dose' of cocaine.

thread_title: "Bluegrass" band??

message: I have an issue with whether or not this band is relevant. I can find nothing that backs up the claim of a #1 Bluegrass Album on the Billboard charts. What I did find was a single chart position for May 1, 2010 that indicates that the album "Palomino" reached #46 on the Independent Albums chart, where it remained for ONE week before dropping out of the Top 100, never to be seen again. While some of the festivals listed in the article are indeed big festivals, it's not any great accomplishment for a completely unknown band to get a token "local opener" slot. I fear that the author is closely associated with the band, and is embellishing more than a little.
Further, the Billboard website has no reviews, and no album information. It's kind of hard to believe that a #1 album in any category wouldn't have a single review, no album information, and no information about the band's personnel lineup. I think this one needs to go away until this band actually does something. Osirisascending (talk) 18:30, 25 September 2011 (UTC)

They had to scrabble around and find a replacement conductor pronto.  This account is very much at odds with his one above, which is all about him NOT getting what he asked for.

The social democratic brand of positivism, although sensing that injustice was the root cause of crime, either deflected its attentions to purely individual deprivation (e.g. maternal deprivation, broken homes, etc.) or made the fundamental mistake of believing that ameliorating deprivation quantitatively in an absolute sense (e.g. raising standards of education, housing, etc.) would solve the problem of relative deprivation.
