states that already have
approved
recreation-

drug’s other benefits,
like as a safer substitute
for painkillers amid the
deadly opioid epidemic.
“It’ll take the scourge of
the old days when drug
dealers sold heroin and
crack and methamphet-
amines and marijuana —
it was all lumped togeth-
er” said Stu Carter, who
owns Utopia Gardens, a
medical marijuana shop
in Detroit. “Now we can
pull that away from that
illegal drug world and
make it much safer for
the consumer.”
In North Dakota, legal-
ization faces an uphill
battle. No significant out-
side supporters have fi-
nanced the effort, which
comes as the state still is
setting up a medical mar-
ijuana system voters ap-
proved by a wide margin
two years ago.
The medical marijua-
na campaign in predom-
inantly Mormon Utah,
which
has
received
$293,000 from the Mari-
juana Policy Project, was
jolted last week when
Gov. Gary Herbert said
he will call lawmakers
into a special postelec-
tion session to pass a
compromise deal into
law regardless of how the
public vote goes.
Medical
marijuana
also is on the ballot in
Missouri and while the
concept has significant
support, voters may be
confused by its ballot
presentation.
Supporters gathered
enough signatures to
place three initiatives be-
fore voters. Two would
change the state consti-
tution; the third would
amend state law. If all
three pass, constitution-
al amendments take pre-
cedence over state law,
and whichever amend-
ment receives the most
votes would overrule the
other.
An organizer of one
amendment, Brad Brad-
shaw, said it is unclear if
having three initiatives
could split supporters so
In terms of special ef-
fects, “First Man” tends
to telescope tightly on
what transpired in the
cockpits, so brace your-
self for lots of hand-held
camera work from the as-
tronauts’ point-of-view,
as opposed to the awe-in-
spiring God shots you
ultimately get from the
lunar surface.
A fitting tribute to an
American icon best re-
membered as a humble,
vulnerable soul with hu-
man frailties.

the proposals fail.
“A lot of people don’t
really even have this on
the radar at this point,”
he said. “They’re going
to walk into the booth to
vote and they’re going to
see all three of these and
say, ‘What the heck?’ You
just don’t know how it’s
going to play out.”

“First Man” is a relative-
ly sober affair, which
divides its time between
chronicling the astro-
nauts’ perilous training
regimen and speculat-
ing about the ever-stoic
Armstrong’s inscrutable
psyche.
The movie’s somber
tone is set not long past
the point of departure
when Neil and wife Jan-
et’s (Claire Foy) two-year-
old daughter Karen los-
es her battle with brain
cancer. In lieu of mourn-
ing, he throws himself
into his preparations
for space flight, and his
emotional unavailability
puts an unspoken strain
on their relationship.
Meanwhile, the risks
associated with the Gem-
ini and Apollo programs
only further intensify
Armstrong’s
palpable
angst. After all, numer-
ous astronauts died in
accidents during train-
ing, including his close
friends Ed White (Jason
Clarke) and Elliot See
(Patrick Fugit).
