Ritalin abuse scoring high on college illegal drug circuit
January 8, 2001

From Linda Ciampa
CNN Medical Correspondent
(CNN) -- There's a popular drug on the streets with nicknames such as "Vitamin R" and "R-Ball" that's making its way into the college scene. But it's not for kicks -- students use this drug to improve concentration and study longer.
The drug is Ritalin, a mild stimulant commonly prescribed for young children to treat attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder, or ADHD.
But on U.S college campuses, students are popping Ritalin without a doctor's prescription -- which is illegal -- before taking on all-night study sessions or to boost alertness during an important test.
"People find this drug enticing because they can get their academic work done quicker or do more in a shorter period of time," said Dr. Eric Heiligenstein, of the University of Wisconsin. "So for students who have put off work or are not very strong academically, we find some are using it to kind of counteract or remedy their problems."
it's not just college kids who are turning to Ritalin. New reports suggest there is a growing trend of Ritalin abuse among younger teens or even adults bent on getting more done at work or keeping with today's fast-paced lifestyle.
Federal drug officials said Ritalin is among the top controlled prescription drugs reported stolen in the United States. The Drug Enforcement Administration also lists methylphenidate, Ritalin's generic name, among a dozen or so "drugs of concern."
There are health concerns surrounding this trend. Ritalin can increase a person's heart rate and blood pressure, among other problems.
"What it means, in rare situations, is the person is put at risk primarily for a cardiac arrhythmia," said Dr. Lawrence Diller, author of "Running on Ritalin." "Then there's irregular beating of the heart -- which can cause sudden death."
Still, Ritalin is safer than some drugs because the stimulant has not been produced in clandestine labs, regulators said. Also, it remains a safe and effective treatment for millions suffering from ADHD, according to the drug's maker, Novartis Pharmaceuticals.

Open Letter to
Mr. Doug Bloom
President of Maritime & Northeast Pipeline
Mr. Bloom:
In response to your letter in the Feb. 25 edition of the Telegraph Journal I would like to offer this reply in hopes of opening up debate as to what is "A safe,efficient and environmentally responsible pipeline".
As to your reference of all the economic spinoffs for the City of Saint John I would like to point out that, "We have heard it all before".
The fact is that once this project is completed your company will benefit to the tune of billions of dollars in profits while the residents assume all the risks associated with a high pressure natural gas pipeline running through their city with no real, lasting and visible benefit to the man in the street.
If this pipeline is to come through and I have no doubt that it will, then the least your company can do is ensure that the line is
a. Run in an area of low residential density.
b. In a way that is of true economic benefit to the City.
c. Contribute to the environment.
I feel that all of these conditions can be met by following the route drawn as the "Least Desirable Route" on your maps that were presented at the Millidgeville open house several weeks ago. This route entails skirting Rockwood Park to the rear of Ashburn Lake. It then crosses the Kennebecasis River near Sand Point. From there it crosses the Kingston Peninsula to Hardings Point where it then crosses the Saint John River and from there on down through Musquash.
How is this route of any benefit to the City of Saint John and surrounding area? In several ways not evident at first glance.
First and foremost is the fact that the river crossings can be accomplished by bridging instead of directional drilling. This would facilitate ready access for maintenance of the gas line and provide much needed land linkages that have only been dreamed of for over a hundred years. The bridges would eliminate the need for 2 cable and 1 seasonal ferry system and give the entire area direct access to the City core. Land values would rocket. Commute times would be reduced. Reduced fuel consumption would result in lower automotive air pollution. Improved police, fire and ambulance services (saving lives). Access to clean air, sunshine and out of the fog belt. The addition of this land base would be a definite plus when trying to attract a younger highly trained work force who do not wish to live in an urban downtown core. People living in these areas woud be more inclined to partake and contribute financially to the night life in the downtown if access were a hop, skip and a jump instead of a long dragged out journey in the late evening hours to and from their homes.
As to the environmental obstacles Mr. McClelland spoke of in the Musquash area. I trust that M&NE will maintain their high standards as to the "pipeline constructiuon and right-of-way restoration". As to your already having a pipeline running through the City, I say, "One is quite sufficient".
Yes there are those who don't want bridges but if Saint John is to grow they need access to that land base. Now would be the time to gain that access and reap its future rewards.
In closing I would like to pose the question. Is this route really about the good of Saint John or is it more a question of "For the good of M&NE stockholders?"

GOD'S PICTURES COLLECTION!!!
MAY YOUR UNFAILING LOVE REST UPON US, O LORD, EVEN
AS WE PUT OUR HOPE IN YOU.
( PSALM 33:22 *NIV )
Dear Charles,
God's love for each one of us is tremendous indeed! For
every child of His is very important to Him! So today I will share
with you something that one of our Sister's sent to me this week.
It speaks of God's Tremendous love for each of us.
To you, Charles,
If God had a refrigerator, your picture would be on it.
If He had a wallet, your photo would be in it.
He sends you flowers every spring.
He sends you a sunrise every morning.
Whenever you want to talk, He listens.
He can live anywhere in the Universe, but He chose your heart.
Now God didn't promise days without pain, laughter without
sorrow, sun without rain, but He did promise strength for the
day, comfort for the tears, and light for the way.
So face it Charles, He is crazy about you!
Therefore let us; GIVE THANKS TO THE LORD, FOR HE
IS GOOD; HIS LOVE ENDURES FOREVER! Amen.
( 1 CHRONICLES 16:34 )
With My Love & Prayers,
your servant Allen
