COED’s Weed Strain of the Week: Bubba Kush

As the years go by and the youth become the adults, weed has assimilated itself more and more into everyday life, and therefore, everyday business. Medical marijuana, commercial marijuana, marijuana paraphernalia, literal marijuana commercials, edible marijuana, marijuana oil, marijuana magazines, and now, COED marijuana articles. Everybody else in the United States seems to be getting in on the reefer madness, so we’ve decided to do the same by introducing a new franchise: Weed Strain of the Week.

When I think of weed strains, the first thing that comes to mind is the 2008 stoner comedy classic Pineapple Express. In one of the earliest scenes of the movie, Saul explains to Dale how fire his newest strain of marijuana — Pineapple Express — is by only referring to previous strains that Dale had smoked.

“This is like if that Blue Oyster shit met that Afghan Kush I had – and they had a baby. And then, meanwhile, that crazy Northern Light stuff I had and the Super Red Espresso Snowflake met and had a baby. And by some miracle, those two babies met and fucked – this would the shit that they birthed.”

The strain “Super Red Espresso Snowflake” always stood out because it’s the perfect skewering of drug dealers who tried tell you what kind of strain you were buying: they were really just making shit up. However, now that legal marijuana and dispensaries exist, actual marijuana strains are more prevalent than ever, so we figured it’s time we start learning them all, one by one.

This week’s Weed Strain of the Week? Bubba Kush.


Bubba Kush

– Species:

  • Indica

– About (via Leafly):

  • Bubba Kush is an indica strain that has gained notoriety in the U.S. and beyond for its heavy tranquilizing effects. Sweet hashish flavors with subtle notes of chocolate and coffee come through on the exhale, delighting the palate as powerful relaxation takes over.

– History (via Wikileaf):

  • Bubba Kush is a heavy indica hybrid that enjoys very wide popularity. The strain’s original L.A. breeder claims that while one parent was an OG Kush plant, the other was an unnamed Northern Lights phenotype brought back from Mardi Gras in New Orleans; this unnamed mother strain affectionately came to be known as “Bubba,” and has since been lost. Prior to 1998, Bubba Kush was only available as a clone, but it has since been replicated so that its seeds could be packaged and sold. Bubba Kush is a classic indica with a solid sedative high that leaves users relaxed but still functional. It has a typically high THC content, ranging from 15% to 22%.

University Of Wisconsin Suspends Fraternity For Almost Killing A Chick With A TV

Whenever viral videos of college kids doing idiotic things come across our social media feeds, rarely do we contemplate the consequences of what could have happened off-screen.

Frat bro Swanton bombs himself through a table? Hilarious, sure, but what about the broken ankle he now has and the bills he has to pay?

Hilarious video of someone drunken fool having dicks drawn on his face? What if that kid had an interview the next morning? You get my point: everyone usually watches the video, chuckles for 3.5 seconds, then moves on with their lives.

However, this video is different. This video caused everyone who watched it to immediately notice the potential consequences of this fraternity’s actions because if they weren’t so lucky, they would have literally killed someone.

Following the instant virality of this video, the University of Wisconsin-Madison has suspended the responsible fraternity. The university announced the suspension on Thursday, July 5.

via The Star Tribune:

The national Kappa Sigma fraternity has terminated its University of Wisconsin-Madison chapter’s charter after people pushed a television off the chapter’s balcony and nearly hit a woman. Police believe the incident took place sometime this past weekend.

Instagram videos show people pushing a cathode-ray television set off Kappa Sigma’s Madison fraternity house’s balcony while a crowd looks on from the ground. The television plunges to earth and barely misses a woman walking beneath it. The crowd cheers and begins stomping on the wrecked TV.

UW-Madison officials announced Thursday that the national fraternity had terminated the Madison chapter’s charter on Tuesday. A message left at the fraternity’s national headquarters Thursday wasn’t immediately returned. University officials also said Thursday that they have suspended the fraternity pending an investigation.

This is the latest major Greek life suspension, expulsion, or overhaul in the last year, as schools such as Indiana University, the University of Michigan, Ohio State University, Texas State, Florida State, Ball State, Louisiana State and Penn State have all suspended fraternities in the wake of hazing and alcohol deaths.

These reports come amidst similar allegations that have been made against fraternities nationwide, including Sigma Alpha Epsilon at East Carolina University, who was shut down for hazing and the Lamda Chi Alpha chapter at the University of Arkansas which has been accused of taking sexually explicit photographs of women without their permission.

In response to incidents like these, fraternities such Phi Kappa Psi have made numerous changes to their code of conduct in an effort to address the issues that have arisen.

The Rock’s ‘Furious’ Spin-Off Adds Idris Elba, Already Seems Better Than ‘Fast & Furious’

WENN

Perhaps sensing that the preposterous Fast & Furious franchise had run its course, Universal wisely invested in a Dwayne Johnson & Jason Statham spin-off, which already sounds more entertaining than Fast & Furious in theory.

Well, we can now confirm that The Rock & Statham’s spin-off, apparently titled Hobbs & Shaw (like Starsky & Hutch but on steroids, I guess) is officially more interesting than the Fast franchise because they’ve added Idris Elba as the villain. The Rock, Jason Statham and Idris Elba in an action movie? Seriously, what more could a dude want in a summer movie?

Oh, and I didn’t even mention that David Leitch — the guy who directed John Wick Deadpool 2 — is attached to direct. A murderers row of action movie-making.

via Variety:

Idris Elba is in final negotiations to play the main villain in “Hobbs and Shaw,” the “Fast and Furious” spinoff starring Dwayne Johnson and Jason Statham. The film will see the often-at-odds pair teaming up. Sources say Elba’s character is the antagonist the duo will go up against.

“Deadpool 2” director David Leitch is on board to helm, with Johnson and Statham reprising their roles as special agent Luke Hobbs and criminal mastermind Deckard Shaw, respectively. “Fast and Furious” architect Chris Morgan penned the script, with production set to commence this fall.

Since his arrival in the franchise’s fifth installment, Universal has tried to find a way to spin off Johnson’s Hobbs character, given his popularity with fans. Statham joined the series in the seventh movie, and considering the chemistry between the two actors in 2017’s “The Fate of the Furious,” Universal took action on plans to develop a spinoff. It hits theaters on July 26, 2019.

Hobbs & Shaw is set to begin production this fall, which would put it on schedule for a Spring/Summer 2020 release date.

As a guy who has never loved the Fast franchise, I can already tell you I’m all in on the Hobbs & Shaw franchise.

France vs. Uruguay Live Stream: How To Watch 2018 World Cup Online

0

At long last, the quarterfinals is upon us in the World Cup. In the first quarterfinals match, France will battle Uruguay for a spot in the semifinals. Both teams were able to win their respective groups and then managed to hold on to one goal victories in the round of 16. Now, star forwards Kylian Mbappé and Luis Suarez will battle it out as both players will look to deliver a decisive blow against each other on the scoreboard this Friday.

France entered the World Cup as one of the favorites to lift the trophy. So far this tournament, France has done nothing but prove that it is a legit contender. France only allowed one combined goal in three group stage games before allowing two goals in the Argentina match. However, France possesses a powerful line of attacking forwards who can score with ease. France’s solid all-around play should pose some problems for Uruguay who play a more counter-attacking style of play. Expect France to pressure Uruguay’s defenders and midfielders constantly on Friday in order to set up some serious attacking chances.

Uruguay entered the tournament somewhat overlooked. Although this team does possess a lot of talent, people did not consider Uruguay to be one of the favorites for this tournament. However, Uruguay has looked like one of the best teams in the World Cup up to this point in time. The team swept all three of its group stage games without allowing a single goal over that span before conceding one goal against Portugal in the round of 16. Uruguay’s defense has been the key to its success but France’s strikers are arguably the best left in the tournament.

As for my prediction, I have to side with France. With Cavani at less than 100%, it might be pretty hard for Uruguay to keep up with France. France is the deeper team and should win this close contest.

Belgium vs. Brazil Live Stream: How To Watch 2018 World Cup Online

At long last, the quarterfinals is upon us in the World Cup. In the second quarterfinals match, Belgium will battle Brazil for a spot in the semifinals. Both teams were able to win their respective groups and then managed to secure victories in the round of 16. Now, star forwards Romelu Lukaku and Neymar will battle it out as both players will look to carry their teams this Friday.

Belgium’s success is due to its star forwards Eden Hazard and Romelu Lukaku. Belgium’s attack was crucial in its insane comeback against Japan last round. Belgium managed to be down two goals in the second half but did not panic as the team rallied to win a thrilling 3-2 game. Now, Belgium will need to play with that same level of intensity for an entire match instead of just the second half since Brazil is a significantly better team than Japan.

Brazil entered the tournament as the favorite to lift the trophy and the team has looked quite solid throughout the tournament thus far. After initially struggling in the group stage, Brazil has won each of its last three matches by a score of 2-0. Brazil easily disposed of Mexico in the round of 16 match thanks to some brilliant defensive play from the midfielders and defensive backs. Brazil’s defense will need to keep its current form against a much stronger offensive threat this Friday if the team hopes to advance to the semifinals.  

As for my prediction, I have to side with Belgium. I personally think that Brazil is the more skilled team but Belgium has dealt with high-pressure situations recently unlike Brazil. Belgium simply should not have beaten Japan last round which makes them that much more dangerous moving forward. Belgium is a world class team that has been given a second life. Expect Belgium to make the most of it.

Saman Gunan: Full Story Of Thai Navy Seal Diver

TODAY

The efforts to rescue a soccer team of young boys who are trapped in a cave in Thailand has turned deadly. Early Friday morning, reports surfaced that 38-year-old diver Saman Gunan died while trying to deliver oxygen tanks. Gunan fell unconscious after his own air supply had run out. His diving partner brought him out of the cave but was unable to revive him

“His job was to deliver oxygen. He did not have enough on his way back,” the Chiang Rai deputy governor said.

From BBC:

PO Saman was brought out by his dive partner but could not be revived.

The oxygen level in the chamber where the boys have taken refuge has fallen to 15%, officials said at a news conference. The usual level is about 21%.

The boys and their coach ventured into the cave while it was dry, but were trapped by a sudden deluge of rainfall. Ten days later British rescue divers found them perched on a rock shelf about 4km (2.5 miles) from the cave mouth.

Gunan, who was an avid runner and cyclist, was no longer in the navy but had agreed to assist in the rescue operation

This is former Petty Officer Saman Gunan, 38 years old, former diver with the Thai Navy who died early this morning returning from the cave where the boys are stranded. He will have a full military funeral. More details @BBCr4today #Thamluangcave pic.twitter.com/j7TkTjP1Oq

— Dan Johnson (@DanJohnsonNews) July 6, 2018

“On the way back from setting up oxygen bottles, Petty Officer First Class Saman Gunan passed out. His buddy tried to give him first aid, but he did not respond. We brought him to chamber three and gave him another round of first aid, but he remained unconscious,” Thai Seal commander Rear Adm Arpakorn Yookongkaew said.

With the falling levels of oxygen, there is concern about how long the boys and their coach who are trapped can remain in the cave. The death of Gunan also shows the dangers of the massive rescue operation. The boys are between ages 11 and 16, with reports that a number of the boys are unable to swim.

Cristiano Ronaldo Facebook Show Reportedly In Discussion

Anthony Stanley/WENN.com

Cristiano Ronaldo is the biggest soccer star in the world and soon Facebook could be looking to cash in on his popularity. According to a report from Variety, Facebook is in talks to produce a reality series focused on Ronaldo for its Facebook Watch platform. Facebook has previously worked with NFL stars Tom Brady and Marshawn Lynch and the Ball family, but scoring a show with Ronaldo would undoubtedly be their biggest hit yet.

Ronaldo would also be in for a huge payday if the show was to be produced.

From the report:

The social giant is in talks to bring the Ronaldo docu-series to Facebook Watch, its video platform for TV-style content, according to multiple sources. Facebook is prepped to invest substantial coin in the project: The Portuguese footballer could get a paycheck of around $10 million for the 13-episode show, sources say.

CAA is packaging the series, to be produced by Matador Content and Religion of Sports, a sports-media firm founded by Gotham Chopra, Michael Strahan, Tom Brady and production company Dirty Robber. Sources differed on how advanced the negotiations are; one said a deal is close to being finalized while another characterized the talks as nascent.

If Ronaldo was to get his own show, it would reportedly be patterned after “Tom vs. Time,” which follows New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady on and off the field. It would give sports fans a unique behind-the-scenes look at what it takes to be one of the top athletes in the world.

Ronaldo most recently took the field in Russia for the 2018 FIFA World Cup. However, his Portugal squad was bounced from the tournament by Uruguay in the Round of 16.

WATCH: Drunk Man Is No Match For UFC Hall Of Famer Matt Serra

Matt Serra is in Las Vegas this week for the Ultimate Fighting Championship’s International Fight Week. Serra is one of the members of the 2018 UFC Hall of Fame class which also includes Ronda Rousey, Art Davie, Bruce Connal, Shogun Rua, and Dan Henderson. But before his induction ceremony, Serra had a little run-in with a drunken man.

Serra was in a restaurant when a man was allegedly harassing other customers.

The former UFC champ says the man was threatening waitresses and then eventually had the guts to take a swing at him. As you might expect, Serra made quick work of the drunken man and took him to the floor while assistance was on the way. While Serra was holding the man down, the drunken patron showed just how much liquid courage he had as he screamed “I’m going to f*** you up!” as Serra laughed on.

Serra uploaded video of the incident to his Instagram account.

Instagram Photo

Serra also posted an earlier video of the man, who was unsuccessfully attempting to wake up a passed out woman. It’s safe to say they were living it in Vegas.

Phi Sigma Kappa and Sigma Alpha Mu At WVU Suspended Until 2020

Following an extensive review of their Greek life policies and rules, West Virginia University has suspended four fraternities, two of which have been permanently suspended.

According to a press release from the university, Phi Sigma Kappa and Sigma Alpha Mu will be suspended through the Fall 2020 semester, while the Pi Kappa Alpha and Phi Gamma Delta (otherwise known as FIJI) fraternities are suspended indefinitely.

Back in February 2018, a committee established by WVU’s Office of Fraternity & Sorority Life reviewed each chapter in the university’s academic, disciplinary, and community engagement and came up with an appropriate “action plan” to “better align each organization with the university’s mission.”

Following the conclusion of their months-long investigation, the committee gave their recommendations to Dean of Students Corey Farris.

The recommendations for each fraternity ranged from losing their official recognition to appointing an academic mentor.

via WVU:

“President Gee challenged us to be bold,” said Matthew Richardson, director of the Office of Fraternity & Sorority Life. “He wants us to be fair and equitable in our approach to fraternity and sorority engagement, and I feel confident that we are set up for success in light of the Reaching the Summit recognition review.”

Richardson added, “Transparency is key, and we intend to publish all relevant information regarding our chapters to our website for students, parents and families to see. This will include academic and judicial histories on our campus.”

While four fraternities have been suspended, all of the West Virginia sororities are reportedly in “good standing” for the upcoming semester.

This is the latest major Greek Life overhaul in the last couple of years, as schools such as Indiana University, the University of Michigan, Ohio State University, Texas State, Florida State, Ball State, Louisiana State and Penn State have all suspended fraternities in the wake of hazing and alcohol deaths.

These reports come amidst similar allegations that have been made against fraternities nationwide, including Sigma Alpha Epsilon at East Carolina University, who were shut down for hazing and the Lamda Chi Alpha chapter at the University of Arkansas which has been accused of taking sexually explicit photographs of women without their permission.

In response to incidents like these, fraternities such Phi Kappa Psi have made numerous changes to their code of conduct in an effort to address the issues that have arisen. In addition, schools such as Texas State have introduced new Greek Life rules to try and prevent these problems.

Ant-Man And The Wasp Goes Big With Small Surprises

Ant-Man and The Wasp is without a doubt a smooth palette cleanser from a packed year of Marvel films with high stake wins and losses. This film allows us to take a step back and soak up some of the lighter parts of the cinematic universe without needing to overthink every single detail. Before we get into the highs and lows of Ant-Man and The Wasp, I should say SPOILER ALERT!

Do not read any further unless you want to be spoiled.

Also, be prepared to hear the word “Quantum” a lot.


Everyone Wants Access To The Quantum Realm

It’s no secret that Hank Pym’s technology is genius, but everyone in this movie is obsessed with grabbing a piece like the one hot girl at a frat party. Pym’s Quantum Realm dimensional lab (which can shrink for safekeeping) that he built to rescue his wife Janet Van Dyne from the Quantum Realm she’s been stuck in over 30 years ago, is tossed around from “bad guy” to “bad guy” like a hot potato — which makes for some great action scenes, but not a lot of story.

Also, all the “bad guys” aren’t really that bad. Everyone is just operating on their own self-interest for obtaining the Quantum Tech and they’re far less sinister than Yellowjacket in the first Ant-Man film. In fact, the Quantum Realm changed the molecular evolution of Janet Van Dyne to the point where she’s somehow now, more than human, having the ability to reassemble fragmented cells and “heal” the body back together (she helps Ghost reassemble herself).

This could definitely have been a small detail that may play a big role going forward in the next stage of films.


Marvel Women Take Center Stage

What’s great about this film is so many women are kicking ass without having to be extra sultry like Black Widow has been known to do in past films. Hope aka The Wasp, Ava aka Ghost, Janet Van Dyne, and even Cassie Lang are all incredibly important to the synergy of this second installment.

Let’s start with Hope. Hope dealt with a tremendous emotional load the last film upon learning her mother could possibly still be alive. Despite being wanted by the FBI for providing the Pym Tech to Scott for him to fight in Captain America: Civil War, Hope didn’t mope around, she got to work on building a Quantum tunnel device with her father to pinpoint the location of her mother once she went subatomic. She traded in her business suits for wings and I have no doubt she would dominate her own stand-alone movie if the time ever came.

Ava Starr aka Ghost is the daughter of Elihas Starr, a former SHIELD colleague of Hank Pym. A big part of this movie is how Hank Pym is a nightmare to work with/for and basically, everyone he’s crossed has some ill feeling toward him. Ava lost her parents in an explosion of Quantum Field Research that her father was conducting to rebuild his reputation after Hank threw him to the curb. Naturally, Ghost blames Pym, she actually isn’t wrong here. Also, her body is constantly being torn apart and reassembled through phase shifts… can’t assume she had a pleasant childhood. Still, Ghost is productive as hell working on a way to use the Quantum Realm dimensional lab as a means to keep herself alive. Luckily… Janet is a cool mom!

Janet Van Dyne, a prisoner of the Quantum Realm after having gone subatomic, could have easily allowed her 30 plus years of shrinking into oblivion destroy her faith (or sanity) that one day someone would rescue her. Nope! She took her time trapped there to allow the Realm to physically evolve her until she managed to imprint a message in Scott’s mind when he entered the Quantum Realm at the end of the first Ant-Man to give Hank and Hope a location of where to find her in the vast abyss. Talk about an ironclad will!

Then there’s sweet Cassie Lang, Scott’s daughter, and his number one fan. She’s smart as a whip and despite the consequences, gives her dad the reverse pep talks he needs to get out there and fight. Cassie will no doubt be an important player in the MCU going forward as they already planted the seed here; she doesn’t need to be a super-hero, she wants to be like her father and help people. Even if they age the actor up for future projects, there’s no doubt Cassie Lang has the heart of a hero.

In a not-to-miss end credit scene, Hank, Janet, Hope, and Scott have set up a small Quantum Realm dimensional portal to go in and extract particles that Janet says will heal their “Ghost friend.” Everything seems to be going smoothly as Scott enters and obtains the goods, but something else seems to be happening out in the real world… something that happened in a SNAP. Scott, who thinks the trio are screwing with him, screams to be pulled back out, only for the viewers to see that all three of the finally reunited family have turned to dust… with no one there to flip the switch to bring Scott back.

Now, this could seem like a major dumpster fire, but considering what we know happened to Janet during her time in the Quantum Realm, this actually could be the best place for Scott — or anyone — to be during a cataclysmic event! If this means Scott can harness the ability to phase shift through realities, he can travel to points of time when certain Avengers have yet to be destroyed and maybe change the outcome of Thanos’s end game. Hell, maybe Scott can go all the way back to a time when baby Thanos wasn’t so fond of genocide!

The key takeaway here is that we have a new playing field and this time its one that could work in our heroes favor.

Guy Calls Police On African American Woman For Using The Community Pool

Adam Bloom has been identified as the man who racially profiled Jasmine Edwards at their neighborhood pool in Winston-Salem, North Carolina.

According to the video uploaded to Facebook, Bloom called the police on Edwards and her son after he asked Edwards to present a form of identification to prove they belong at the pool.

Bloom reported her to authorities because she didn’t have an ID card on her. Residents of the Winston-Salem neighborhood are supposedly the only ones allowed to use the pool, and Edwards said she proved her residency by providing her address.

The incident took place on Wednesday, July 4 at the community pool in the Glenridge community.

“This is a classic case of racial profiling in my half a million $$ neighborhood pool,” Edwards said in her original Facebook post.

via Winston Salem Journal:

Winston-Salem police were called to a private community pool Wednesday afternoon after a white man asked a black woman to show her ID.

Video of the incident was posted by Jasmine Edwards to Facebook and had gotten nearly 3 million views by Thursday afternoon.

On Twitter, the incident was trending with the hashtag #idadam. In the video, the woman referred to the man as Adam. Hundreds of people had tweeted about it, with some tweets tagging the man’s alleged employer.

The Glenridge Homeowners Association later identified the man as Adam Bloom. No one answered the door at his home Thursday afternoon.

Edwards and the man both live in the Glenridge community, which is off Robinhood Road, said Karam Gulkham, a lifeguard manager for the pool.

Bloom’s lawyer, John Vermitsky, said the incident was not racially motivated and he was simply doing his job: “It’s not unreasonable for there to be that perception,” Vermitsky said to the New York Post:

His lawyer, John Vermitsky, told The Post that his client works for the Glenridge Homeowners Association, where he and Edwards live, as the pool chairman and board member — so he’s required to ask people for IDs on account of his position.

In fact, he claimed that Bloom wasn’t even the one who initially complained about Edwards.

“He had a pool member come to him and say ‘this person doesn’t appear to be a pool member’ and asked to check their credentials, as he’s required to do so,” Vermitsky said.

“[Edwards] became loud and confrontational, and he wanted to make sure that the situation was handled properly.”

Bloom resigned from his position as pool chairman and board member on Thursday, July 6.

He has since been nicknamed ‘Pool Patrol Peter’, similar to other nicknames given to individuals who have engaged in racial profiling such as “Permit Patty” and “BBQ Becky.”
