Extractions: Summary INTRODUCTION Tobacco use is the single most preventable cause of death in the United States (1). Illnesses caused by tobacco use increase demands on the U.S. health-care system; lost productivity amounts to billions of dollars annually (2-3). Because four out of every five persons who use tobacco begin before they reach adulthood (1), tobacco-prevention activities should focus on school-age children and adolescents. Evidence suggests that school health programs can be an effective means of preventing tobacco use among youth (4-7). The guidelines in this report have been developed to help school personnel plan, implement, and assess educational programs and school policies to prevent tobacco use and the unnecessary addiction, disease, and death tobacco use causes. Although these guidelines address school programs for kindergarten through 12th grade, persons working with youth in other settings also may find the guidelines useful. The guidelines are based on a synthesis of results of research, theory, and current practice in tobacco-use prevention. To develop these guidelines, CDC staff convened meetings of experts from the fields of tobacco-use prevention and education, reviewed published research, and considered the conclusions of the National Cancer Institute Expert Advisory Panel on School-Based Smoking Prevention Programs (4) and the findings of the 1994 Surgeon General's Report, Preventing Tobacco Use Among Young People (8).

Extractions: University of Toronto Faculty of Medicine Psychiatry Home The Addiction Psychiatry Program was started in 1996 with the mission to provide academic leadership and scholarship in addictions. This includes: establishing and maintaining exemplary clinical services for individuals with psychoactive substance use disorders; providing high quality multidisciplinary education and training at the undergraduate, postgraduate and continuing education levels; and to stimulate and foster research and scholarly work in the area of addictions within the Department of Psychiatry. An overarching principle that guides the Addiction Psychiatry Program is that a comprehensive understanding of addictions and experience in working with individuals with psychoactive substance use disorders is an integral component of comprehensive psychiatric care and needs to be achieved in a psychiatry training program. The Addiction Psychiatry Program has its primary Centre of Excellence at the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health, with 20 of the faculty having primary appointments at that site. Two faculty have primary appointments with St. Michael's Hospital, one faculty member has a primary appointment at the Hospital for Sick Children, and one faculty has an appointment at Humber River for a total of 24 Addiction Psychiatry faculty. The goal of the Addiction Psychiatry Program is to further develop training opportunities throughout the U of T system. Dr. Patrick Smith is the Program Head and Dr. Tony Toneatto is the Research Coordinator for the program. Dr. Dan Digiacomo served as the Educational Coordinator for the program and as the Residency Coordinator for the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health for the past three years and Wayne Skinner will be fulfilling that role going forward.

When AT Forum addressed these issues about 5 years ago,[1,2] only 59% of clinics responding to a survey had disaster plans of some sort. These primarily dealt with natural disasters, such as weather emergencies, earthquakes, floods, or fires. Only a few had considered manmade crises, mostly bomb threats or riots.

Extractions: Pathological Trance and Addiction Dennis R. Wier Director, The Trance Institute, Bruetten, Switzerland I make an assumption about what is desirable in life, and I should state it explicitly. I assume that a robust life is a life of variety and wide options, and that an impoverished life is a life with few options and little variety. Life naturally contains limits and limits help to restrain chaos and thus to free a certain kind of energy. Although there are many people of the opinion that all limits are bad, I feel that limits alone are not bad, in fact, limits are necessary to empower creativity. However, certain types of strict limits in life seem to imply the presence of a pathological state or at least delusions about lack of personal power. There is a delicate balance between the limits which empower personal growth and the limits which crush human spirit. One way to find this balance is to realize that within any personal psychological reality there is a set of changing stimuli and response potentials. A behavior is a pair of specific stimulus with its response and a behavior results in a new stimulus which joins other stimuli in creating the personal psychological reality. Theoretically, the responses that may exist for a given set of stimuli can be counted. The number of such potential responses is often thought of as the "richness" of a person's life. A relatively low number of potential responses or options indicates a relatively impoverished reality.

Extractions: The Effects of Substance Abuse on the Development of Children: Educational Implications Author: Colleen Meade Originally Posted At: http://www.teach-nology.com/tutorials/teaching/abuse/ Another great tutorial from TeAch-nology.com! The Web Portal For Educators! ( http://www.teach-nology.com **What's All the Hype?** The effect of substance abuse on growing fetuses has been avidly researched in recent years. The birth of the Thalidomide babies in the early 1960 awakened the world to the fact that drugs ingested by the mother can severely impact the development of the growing baby. Thalidomide was widely prescribed to relieve morning sickness in pregnant women. It was the use of Thalidomide that affected "nearly 12,000 infants in 46 countries" and caused defective "limbs, eyes, ears, genitals, and internal organs" (Bethune, 2001). The birth of these children soon became known as "history's greatest medical disaster" (Bethune, 2001). This paper seeks to describe the possible effects of substance abuse in gestation, the environmental effects from typical substance-abusive households, and the implications in the field of education. It also seeks to outline curricular adaptations, which can be made to appropriately educate children affected by these issues.

Extractions: Lisa Gorman Ninety percent of smokers begin smoking by the age of 19. Nicotine is considered the number one entrance into other substance abuse. Adolescents between the ages of 12 and 17 who smoke daily are 15 times more likely to use illicit drugs than their peers. Substance abuse is a learned behavior. Teens who begin smoking learn to use the substance. The earlier youth begin using tobacco, the more likely they will continue use into adulthood. Why is tobacco use addicting? The nicotine in tobacco acts as a stimulant, depressant, or tranquilizer depending on the dosage. An individual builds up tolerance to tobacco use, requiring larger doses to maintain a certain physiological effect. When the body becomes accustomed to the presence of nicotine, it then requires the chemical to function normally. This level of dependence is referred to as an addiction. Teens who are addicted to tobacco have several common experiences. A number of them tried their first cigarette in the sixth or seventh grade. Smokers often do not perform well at school. They do not feel they are a part of school and are isolated from those students who are active in sports. Most of the smokers feel they have little hope of going to college or getting a good job after high school. They also report addictions to other substances, such as alcohol. They experience pressure from home and school, and use tobacco as a form of relief. In addition, teen smokers enjoy trying to hide their smoking or outwit school administration. This has made school more fun for some tobacco users.
