Biotechnology Center recently awarded nearly $25,000 to Western Carolina University in Cullowhee for equipment and supplies that will enable college and high school students from the western half of the state to get hands-on experience in molecular genetics research. "For some time, the university has been interested in developing a biotechnology program, both for its students and as a means of providing the Western North Carolina region with new opportunities for economic growth," said Wesley Bonds, an assistant professor of chemistry who leads the biotech efforts at the college. The money will pay for new laboratory equipment, which will be used with the existing DNA sequencers at Western Carolina University to teach undergraduate and graduate chemistry courses.

Health and Health Care in Schools Vol 1, No 9 - November 2000 Advocates Charge States Aren't Using Settlement Money for Tobacco Prevention The Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids and the American Cancer, Heart, and Lung Associations joined in October to tell a Senate committee that some states aren't living up to their promise to use tobacco settlement money to reduce the death toll from tobacco. "The tobacco settlement has resulted in an increase in the amount of money being spent on tobacco prevention and cessation, but the numbers are woefully short of what the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has concluded represents the absolute minimum to fund a truly effective, sustained comprehensive program," the associations testified at a hearing chaired by Senator John McCain (R-AZ). That's not what was envisioned in November 1998, the Campaign said, when 46 states and the tobacco industry settled the states' Medicaid lawsuits for recovery of their tobacco-related disease costs. The industry committed to paying the states approximately $206 billion over the next 25 years, with additional payments of $5 billion to 14 states to compensate them for potential harm to their tobacco-producing communities. That was a "unique opportunity to reduce the terrible burden exacted by tobacco on America's families and communities," but the states' levels of funding for prevention and cessation are "inconsistent with the magnitude of the problem," especially the near-record high rates of smoking by young people, the Campaign charged.

Safety First A Reality-Based Approach to Teens, Drugs, and Drug Education By: Marsha Rosenbaum , Ph.D. Director, The Lindesmith CenterWest ©1999, The Lindesmith Center. I first thought about drug education over twenty years ago, while working on my Ph.D. dissertation about heroin addiction. One of my first interviews was with a "nice Jewish girl," like myself, from an affluent suburb in a large metropolitan area. Genuinely intrigued by the different turns our lives had taken, I asked how she had ended up addicted to heroin and in jail. I will never forget what she told me: "When I was in high school they had these so-called drug education classes. They told us if we used marijuana we would become addicted. They told us if we used heroin we would become addicted. Well, we all tried marijuana and found we did not become addicted. We figured the entire message must be b.s. So I tried heroin, used it again and again, got strung out, and here I am."

Addiction Messenger - Volume 2 - 1999 Addiction Messenger: Volume 2, Issue 22 Helping Women Recover: A Program for Treating Addiction - Safety December 31, 1999 As many as three out of four chemically dependent women have been sexually abused themselves while some women may have been abusers. Alcohol and other drugs cloud the memory, so as a woman becomes sober, distressing memories can begin to surface. Women need to understand that these experiences can be discussed with a counselor. This sample session is meant to empower women to name whatever has happened and to deal with it at whatever pace they choose. Because safety is the first stage of trauma recovery, it will help them feel safe talking about abuse. By raising the topic in this session, the facilitator will let the women know that it is okay for them to talk about sexual abuse. This is not an appropriate forum in which to ask the women to talk in detail about their experiences and, No one should be forced to speak on this topic that does not want to.

Pre and Post Doctoral Training Program in Cancer Prevention and Control Massey Cancer Center Virginia Commonwealth University Post Doctoral Position Announcement Our Goals The goals for training in cancer control at MCC are similar to the goals of the Cancer Control Program. The overall goal of the training program is to provide pre-doctoral training in the areas of human genetics, biostatistics and psychology and post-doctoral training that will allow talented researchers to establish their careers as independent researchers in important areas of cancer control. The proposed program will establish unique multidisciplinary training that is not typical of any other cancer center and is founded in the unique opportunities at VCU and the unique surrounding environment of Richmond (Richmond and a large proportion of Virginia s rural areas are over 50% minority). The training program has five objectives: a) to develop a multidisciplinary integrated research training program with a broad range of research opportunities in cancer control b) to meet the needs of training in underserved research areas in cancer control such as psychiatric and behavioral genetics, and underserved populations

CSAP Resource Guide: Tobacco Tobacco use is increasingly becoming taboo in American society. Yet, according to statistics from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, about 32 percent of the total population has used tobacco within the past year, and 72 percent of the population has tried tobacco at some time throughout the course of their lives. Disturbingly, 36 percent of 12- to 17-year-old adolescents have already tried tobacco. Tobacco use remains the leading preventable cause of death in the United States, causing more than 419,000 deaths each year at an annual cost of more than $50 billion, according to a 1996 report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The Center for Substance Abuse Prevention recognizes the serious threat that chewing and smoking tobacco poses to the health of Americans and is committed to stemming the tide of new smokers by deterring tobacco's use. This guide provides the latest information and referrals for tobacco use prevention. It highlights research, materials, programs, and organizations for prevention professionals, educators, parents, and the general public. By working together, we can save lives. Nelba Chavez, Ph.D.

Annual Review Message from the President One year ago I wrote that "it has been a year of continuing change nationally and there has been a major drive within the College to contribute positively…" The same could be said this year, but even more so. Another major proposal was the need to strengthen regional activities. We have opened a further office in Wales, jointly with the RCS, and three more will follow this coming year. They have proved universally popular and I suspect that despite the cost there will be offices in each Deanery eventually. We have also increased the number of Regional "Teach ins" both for SHO's and for Consultants, forming a significant component of CME for the latter. There is also now a handbook containing the job descriptions of all College Officers (except myself) both in Regents Park and in the regions. This should help clarify some of the confusion that exists regarding the interface between the College and the Deaneries. In the wake of Bristol, where I gave evidence, there has been continued pressure on self-regulation. Clinical governance is being introduced. The College has worked closely with other Colleges through the Academy of Medical Royal Colleges to produce a generic model. This will involve annual appraisal by the Trust, participation in audit and CPD with a personal portfolio. Revalidation was agreed by the GMC in February and a wide range of working groups have been looking at options. Our Standards Committee (created in the College reorganisation) has made major contributions in both these areas. Revalidation will be introduced in 2001, but we are making the point

Gian Turci's Corner HOW STUPID (OR DISHONEST) CAN THEY GET? Or: how to read the lies of the anti-tobacco cartel April 13, 1999 The dishonesty of the anti-tobacco cartel is beyond the imaginable. And the naïvete of those who honestly believe the garbage the cartel spews out is equally unimaginable. Here is an article published by "On Health," a well-known lackey of the anti-tobacco industry. On Health regularly publishes garbage on tobacco, its users, and publicizes the junk science steadily mass-produced by the cartel. This particular article, however, requires some comments, because seldom I have seen something more stupid, as well as more false and misleading, all under one roof. The direct link to this article is http://onhealth.com/ch1/in-depth/item/item,33735_1_1.asp . I am reproducing it here for the sole purpose of commenting on it. The Rehooked Generation: How Do We Help Them Stop? By David Ansley Alarmed to discover a large, new generation of smokers gathering in the nation's secondary schools and colleges, public health officials are facing a question they've never seriously confronted before: How do you get an addicted child to stop smoking? ...Notice the resounding title: "The Re-Hooked Generation..." Where is the musical commentary á la "ABC Nightline?"
