Hey Pump, just been sitting back thinking about CBIS and the price surge. I figured this song would be perfect to play when CBIS opens after the weekend break lol
Yup, and taking those darn stairs 5 at a time lol. Bring it on CBIS.
Those legal statuses may have changed subtlety but the Nimbin Hemp Embassy has all up to date State laws on cannabis in Australia. Under Federal law it is still illegal, but decriminalisation is very much in place for small amounts
I live in the Australian Capital Territory, in Canberra, the capitol of Australia.
lol We are very "Americanised" here in Australia due to television, but for me it comes from spending my early schooling in Washington DC. Also I am a senior mod and medical cannabis educator on a a large med cannabis site (Treating Yourself) so have much contact with Nth Americans.
Cannabis is still illegal in Australia, but Sativex is about to go on sale here so I gather that any tincture form of medicine from CBIS would ride on the back of that approval.
Currently, there is about to be a trial getting underway in the Nimbin Valley for cannabis cafes that would primarily cater to med use but also cover controlled rec use. There is a fascinating discussion on this trial at the Nimbin Hemp Embassy Forum here: http://www.hempembassy.net/forums/Cannabis-and-the-Law/The-first-steps-in-the-move-towards-the-regulation%2C-taxation-and-control-of-Cannabis-in-Australia./9,1328,0,0,0,0,0 (you may need to register to view).
Change IS coming to Australia but all eyes are on the US and no action here will be taken at a Federal level until then.
Dr Bob made many many valuable contacts here in Australia in the medical cannabis field. It was those contacts that resulted in some special genetics being donated to CBIS by one of Australia's best breeders.
I just jumped in and bought another 30K, taking my overall holding to 50K. Us folks here in Australia are very excited about this new upward trend and we are ALL remaining staunch behind CBIS
CBIS does have the right strain. How do I know this...well let's say Dr Bob's visit to Australia was most rewarding. What I can and will tell you is that the right strain must be very high in CBD, and CBIS has positively nailed that issue!!!!!
Just as GW has the right strain/s, well now CBIS has also.
Also keep in mind that CBIS products can and will be made available in other countries overseas. It is NOT just the US market we are talking about here. Other countries are light years ahead of the US when it comes to cannabis as a medicine, so I am sure that CBIS will be targeting those countries where the market is more receptive.
Hey pump, something else to consider. CBIS has genetics from Australia in it's research stable, and the contacts and friends Dr Bob made here in Australia bode well for CBIS venturing into the Australian market. Sativex has been okayed here, so the walls are tumbling. We are pushing the PTSD market here and if CBIS produces an ailment specific product, the possibilities are enormous, seeing as 1 in 10 Aussies suffers from PTSD, and that figure is climbing. There is currently NO single or combination conventional medicine to treat PTSD...BUT CANNABIS DOES - either in extract form, tincture form, or whole bud form. Add to that the potential of the Asian market...go figure.
Once the US gets its act together, beginning with the passing of proposition 19, the dam wall will fully rupture, so have yer CBIS life jacket on or you will sink with the bashers!
And from me. It is great to see a confident, considered post in support of CBIS. Much appreciated.
Pump, you and I are riding on the same wave mate and it is a sweet even swell. I am standing on my long board with my CBIS T-shirt and sunnies, cruising and smiling! Might even catch a nice tan in the bright sun from CBIS lol
Hey Pump, still no sign of Dade eh mate. I just woke up to this news here in Australia and spilled my damn coffee I was so excited. Rock on CBIS!!!!!
Lots of confidence still for CBIS
That is nonsense Dade, as you have been doing nothing but bashing CBIS in post after post. You seem embittered and keep on posting same same in post after post. Sure, you may have a share stake in this, but lighten up mate. You ask questions and that is ok, but I reckon people make their own luck and you surely need to be looking for that four leaf clover.
Try posting with hope and confidence and create a good vibe for CBIS.
This song is so you, Dade lol. I figure the favour should be returned after the videos you sent me before.
Way to go Matty!! I picked up another 12,500 myself and share your confidence that CBIS will rock the Planet!
Check this pumpnass https://qrnshareoffer.com.au/
Cool post. Nimbin Wave is put out by a good friend of mine. Great to see Aussie sites get an airing here.
I just bought another 12,500 shares here in Australia at 4.6 cents. I am sitting back patiently waiting in the total confidence that things are about to get moving. As I said in an earlier post, I am a disability pensioner and really take every cent I have with great care.
Bring it on CBIS.
This is significant news!!!! Disinfectant – A Huge Market!!
MRSA destroying new disinfectant……Pot!
http://greenieweenie.com/2010/09/27/mrsa-destroying-new-disinfectant-pot/
The increase in MRSA infection in UK hospitals is a growing concern for both doctors and patients alike, but according to an American based company an effective, cannabis-based disinfectant is available to fight the super-bug.
MRSA (methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus) is a type of bacteria which has become increasingly resistant to antibiotics. MRSA infection has become increasingly difficult to treat, and can lead to death.
The number of cases of MRSA has been rising sharply – from 2,422 in 1997 in England and Wales, to 7,684 in 2003/4 in England alone. Official figures show that about 15% of reported MRSA cases result in death.
Disinfectant – A Huge Market
UK Children of the 70's and the 80's will be well familiar with the famous Domestos bleach TV adverts which ran for a couple of decades.
Domestos..Kills all known germs..Dead!
Much as they do today, animated germs and bugs ran riot across our screens (and down our toilet bowls), and the unbeatable bleach product would swing in as our saviour, and that of our families and young children.
Today, disinfectant is a huge consumer market, which sees shoppers spending millions of pounds sterling every year on liquid for the toilet, for the kitchen sink, and of course, the new generation of bleach/disinfectant wipes and sprays, used to protect our families from cross-contamination on the kitchen work-tops and food preparation areas.
If only we could kill germs and bugs as efficiently in our hospitals, right? Well apparently we can, according to a study which says Cannabis has shown “Exceptional” antibacterial activity against MRSA.
But the truth is no-one wants us to know about it. At the behest of a government which is dead set against any positive news regarding cannabis being released for general consumption, the press simply refuses to tell us about it.
But thankfully thats not the case in America.
Cannabis Science Inc
Dr. Robert Melamede, PhD., Director and Chief Science Officer for American based Cannabis Science Inc, reported recently on the current state of research into the use of natural plant cannabinoids to reduce the spread of drug-resistant bacteria, including methicillin-resistant Staphyloccus aureus (MRSA), and the prospects for development of topical whole-cannabis treatments.
According to studies published in the Journal of the American Medical Association and by the Center for Disease Control in 2007, MRSA is responsible for more than 18,500 hospital-stay related deaths each year, and increased direct healthcare costs of as much as $9.7 billion.
Dr. Melamede stated, “Research into use of whole cannabis extracts and multi-cannabinoid compounds has provided the scientific rationale for medical marijuana’s efficacy
in treating some of the most troubling diseases mankind now faces”.
“Infectious diseases such as the flu and HIV, autoimmune diseases such as ALS (Lou Gehrig’s Disease), multiple sclerosis, arthritis, and diabetes”.
Amazingly this also includes neurological conditions such as Alzheimer’s, stroke and brain injury, as well as numerous forms of cancer.
“One common element of these diseases”, continues Dr Melamede, “is that patients often suffer extended hospital stays, risking development of various Staphyloccus infections including MRSA”.
“A topical, whole-cannabis treatment for these infections is a functional complement to our cannabis extract-based lozenge.”
Investigators at Italy’s Universita del Piemonte Orientale and Britain’s University of London, School of Pharmacy reported in the Journal of Natural Products that five cannabinoids – THC, CBD, CBG, CBC, and CBN – “showed potent antibacterial activity” and “exceptional” antibacterial activity against two epidemic MRSA occurring in UK hospitals.

It was posted earlier that a SIGNIFICANT announcement will come through in 7 to 10 days.
My Norton Internet security says that link is unsafe!!!!!!
Lots of good info here from investors. Time to buy CBIS mate, the shares are soon to rock and roll so get yer dancin' shoes on. Small world eh!
Yes mate! I was the person who organised Dr Bob's trip to Australia and was his guide during the time here. Dr Bob loved Australia and has plans to return next year for MardiGrass 2011. He spoke at the Law Reform Rally and I introduced him to the major medicinal cannabis activists, including Tony Bower, better known as Mullaway. See this: http://www.finda.com.au/features/2010/05/15/shares-rise-in-marijuana-researcher/ That is me in the pic with Dr Bob!
Now we are talking!!! Go CBIS
CBIS has rid itself of Kubby, and that in itself assues me that the company will move forward. Kubby was like a sea anchor, slowing down the ship against the flow of the current. Keep suckin' on those lozenges Kubby - maybe CBIS will make special "all day suckers" just for you.
CBIS has Dr Bob Melamede AND the right plant genetics to work with in making medicine. Anyone with an ounce of knowledge about cannabis strains know that genetics is where the "niche" is, as you so stated.
Great post mate!! CBIS will endure this temporary turmoil.
Let Kubby suck on 'em for all I care.
CBIS will be offering exclusive genetics that are very high in CBD. Sure, dispensaries have lots of strains, but those strains are mostly high THC strains. The best strains are high in CBD, and that is the intellectual property.
Nice work with your posting wplong89. Much appreciated.
The medicine is so beautiful isn't it. The colours are amazing and the aromas must be dank. Obviously they have skilled growers of the genetics. I also note the grow area is spotless and high standards are being religiously followed, as it should be if making high quality medicine.
YES!!!
Great post!! I can assure that in the not too distant future, CBIS will be growing some incredible Australian medicinal strains of cannabis. Things can only get better.
If you understand the science of the plant and the endocannabinoid system, you will see that CBIS truly are market leaders. And trust me, it DOES come down to the quality of the genetics being supplied to the market, be it in dry form, tinctures, or medibles and extracts.

Wall Street Journal Reports on Cannabis Science Inc
I'm in for the long haul too, Roz
I agree mate, that there is a tide for change that no Government can stop. I am in Australia and see news story after news story that cannabis is a medicine that MUST be taken seriously. The fact that there are dispensaries in Washington DC shows that even in the capitol, folks need this terrific medicine.
CBIS has the genetics, the brains, and the determination, to make this company rock and roll. Just wait until Proposition 19 gets up at the vote and watch the share price take off!
