Autospense medical marijuana vending machine

The Autospense vending machine by a Californian company Dispense Labs LLC is designed to allow easy access to medical marijuana for those who need it, while keeping it safely out of reach of those who merely want it. This machine is far more sophisticated than your average snack dispenser though – locks, cameras, sensors and proprietary software all add up to a high-security turnkey solution for dispensing, tracking and managing medical marijuana.

First of all, it’s members only, as you need to register with a particular dispenser. With your registration card, you can make your way through the security vending cage. However, swiping the card is not enough – you also have to enter your PIN number and have your fingerprints scanned. Once you’re done with security, you can finally make your purchase, the old school way, i.e. by selecting the right item on a touch screen and making a payment (cash, credit or debit card).

Surveillance cameras and sensors obviously make tampering with the machine very difficult, but they also provide important data that can be presented to concerned authorities at any time. Not only does the machine know who goes in and who goes out, but it also takes care of stocktaking and purchase tracking. Company founder and CEO Joe DeRobbio hopes that these security measures, coupled with a registration-only scheme and a high level of security, will convince lawmakers that medical marijuana can be dispensed in a safe and organized way.

“Autospense, a stand-alone machine embedded with a customized software solution, aims to become the model for government compliance and will bridge the gap between storeowners and governmental agencies with its accurate tracking and management of medical marijuana,” says DeRobbio. “In addition to improving financial accountability and security for storeowners and patients alike, Autospense addresses issues at the state and federal level with 24/7 tracking and electronic reporting capabilities.”

Although legal in California since 1996, the use of medical marijuana remains banned under the provisions of federal laws. The Supreme Court ruled that those restrictions may also be enforced in states allowing medical marijuana, so the legal ground is rather shaky.

Currently there is one Autospense vending machine operating at The Dispensary Store in Santa Ana, Orange County.

Swell machine. Will it fit in the bed of a pickup truck?

They have had these in LA for a couple years now.
I’ve never used one but I want to just because.

Ultima noapte într-un hotel ieftin înainte de a pleca spre Caraibe

Poem de Ron Paul Salutsky; Traducere: Corina Dragomir

Hainele se rotesc în continuu pe ventilatorul din tavan

după ce au fost spălate cu săpun de Castilia

într-o geantă cu fermoar

Iubita mea sună atît de bine pe tonomatul muzical Wurlitzer

dublată de tobele conga.

s-ar putea să fi luat Hepatita B de la farmacie

azi în timp ce îmi faceam o imunizare pentru Hepatita B.

Plec din oraşul asta mîine

într-unul din autobuzele permanente, pierzînd staţia

data asta s-ar putea sa însemne că mă îndrept

catre Polul Sud. A visat careva vreodată

la Polul Sud şi daca da, visul a fost

cu un om cu picioare lungi jongland cu norii

pe spatele unei broaste ţestoase

sau a fost mai impresionist, un mozaic

de umbre contingente la distanţă

şi deschidere? În ce parte e nordul

de la Polul Sud, în ce parte nu este,

care e codul zonei? Care e frecvenţa,

Dan, unde te-ai dus soarele meu mare

şi albastru? E o gradină de aisberguri

la geam, şi gîndurile mele

de purtare uşoară ca unda şi particula. Rucsacul meu

cerînd să fie îndesat, efectele mele

asteptînd dezaprobator pe pat în jurul meu.

Lenjeria mea de corp încolacindu-mi-se pe cap

pantalonii mei uzi cu multe buzunare respirînd greu

datorită caldurii de la televizor. Cutiţul meu de supravieţuire

tremurînd. Prezervativele mele ambiţioase

şi lubrifiantul personal donat nefolosit sertarului

de la noptieră. Cele doua ponchouri de ploaie

de 99 cenţi bucurîndu-se de ultima lor

noapte împreună, clătinîndu-se încet

pe frînghia de rufe

în zumzetul Wurlitzerului.

harta de găsit morţii fiecărui

vinovăţiilor mele, a ispăşirilor
mele, harta celor pentru care

harta tuturor celor ceea nu par

Your will always ice shower
Over the hold of your senses,
Try forget your real power,
No joy can break defenses!!

Pounce
On every gasp of wind!
Bounce
Like you have never sinned!!

Wait a sec shit are those glams
And your mind is an empty hall,
You’ve got no fuckin’ engrams,
Don’t smile stupid, bullshit is all.

Trounce
On all negativity around you!
Bounce
To make miracles come true!!

Do you think you are weak?
Then I bet you indeed are!
Do not feel and act strong,
You’ll not win every war!!

Renounce
Any pain and fear in your heart!
Bounce
Like every day is a new start!!

For help do not seek through,
You seek answers from outside!
No such help can satisfy you,
No wisdom comes from inside!!

Denounce
All that is sad and unfair!
Bounce
And show the world you care!!

Whole world is not yours, yay,
Stretch both arms and embrace!
If you’ll fall hard along the way,
Do not try to get up with grace!!

Announce
To the world who you are!
Bounce
Light all around like a star!!

Fuck off with the paradox of life,
Don’t try breaking from shackles!
Power within you is a blind side,
Don’t try to cause fancy miracles!!

my fifth raven

¤

Sternest ravens are stucked all in the muck,

baggier than god overstrunged you kick

around center cubicle fermenting your glance

as if wearing the willow long gone in gruff

silence, meeknest ravens all lie stalky in your

mind, as tough would be creeping on your

haunches the oldest angry hedgehog hurling

you your puke smirched purple skirt snippy

slacky sputtering right side on my nauseous

left limb deep abortively my wretchy sneer

unbreaking the dirty glass pane jolting

behind you accepting my crispiest strumpet

to be, you’re doping the query with your high

heels, lo! the window interspersed five storeys

below, now the icy breeze can fondly pat us

ten times in a row … don’t move! damn’you!

stay still while i bite your teat, while i grind

your nipple, while i bash your breast to the

quick, don’t move! let me get dazzled by that

ruby light, potted on the beauty of these red

trickles, let’em be my best ever weed, c’mmon!

just now your boiling heroine blood let me lick.

I am well. Now let your feathers truly breathe,

let your wings capacious spread, and say:

- Nevermore!
