...lead are poisonous and potentially deadly. Although methanol is not produced in toxic amounts by fermentation of sugars from grain starches,contamination is still possible by unscrupulous distillers using cheap methanol to increase the apparent strength of the product. Moonshine can be made both more palatable and less damaging by discarding the "foreshot"—the first few ounces of alcohol that drip from the condenser. The foreshot contains most of the methanol, if any, from the mash because methanol vaporizes at a lower temperature than ethanol. The foreshot also typically contains small amounts of other undesirable compounds such as acetone and various aldehydes. Alcohol concentrations above about 50% alcohol by volume (100 proof) are flammable and therefore dangerous to handle. This is especially true during the distilling process when vaporized alcohol may accumulate in the air to dangerous concentrations if adequate ventilation has not been provided. Mixtures Moonshine has sometimes been mixed with an adulterant (e.g. methanol, lye) with the intent of increasing its apparent alcohol content. This practice has sometimes resulted in a toxic mixture that can cause blindness or death. Although poisoning incidents are rare, particularly in developed nations, they are a cause for concern about the safety of moonshine. Moonshine may be flavored with fruit or bark. The mash may be cooked...

...initial analysis of alcohol and drug-related violence inquiry in Sydney (CBD) makes it clear that the ‘problem’ has been represented to be alcohol consumption and substance abuse, causing violence and anti-social behaviour in King Cross and around the CBD areas, which, in turn, has triggered public safety. Clearly, the ‘problem’ has been directed to individuals, licensed premises and trading hours. Bacchi (2009) argues that, rather fixing and addressing policy problems, how policy makers construct or represent ‘problems’ in a particular way, will give shape the problem, which in turn, will be the representation of the policy problem. Bacchi (2009) suggests that the representation of the problem will determine the policy response of a particular issue or problem. Following the death Daniel Christie as a result of being assaulted in King Cross, on the 21th January 2014, the New South Wales (NSW) State Government introduced new restrictions on licensed premises to reduce alcohol-related violence (Roth, 2014). Therefore, the new regulations (the January 2014 reforms) specifically focusses on licensed premises through restrictions( contained in the Liquor Amendment Act, 2014) on the trading hours such as, 1:30 am lockouts, 3a.m last alcohol, a freeze on new liquor licences, no alcohol takeaway after 10 pm, banning of people up to 48 hours, extension of temporary and long-term banning orders issued to “trouble-makers”, suspension of online responsible service of alcohol training and introduction...

...Advertising Alcohol Alcohol abuse is a significant problem among young people and a solution needs to be found. Does alcohol advertising make teenagers more likely to drink? Internet research shows anti-alcohol groups such as the National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse (CASA) and the Center on Alcohol Advertising (CAA), regularly assert in reports and studies that alcohol advertising leads to underage drinking. In fact, forty five percent of the commercials that young people view each year are advertisements for alcohol. Research shows that television advertising changes attitudes about drinking. Young people report more positive feelings about drinking and their own likelihood to drink after viewing alcohol ads. Every day, there are millions of teens viewing television, reading magazines, going to sporting events, or buying items that are representing alcoholic beverages. Alcohol companies have to support their business somehow. Advertisements are a must to get a product out there and well known. However, it’s possible to present a product in a way in which that drinking doesn’t appear so appealing to adolescents. Companies could easily not use sex appeal or partying in their ads and still represent their product in a way to persuade adults to buy it. Exposure to alcohol advertising influences children by creating a positive attitude toward alcohol use. If children view alcohol in their home, they are more likely to drink at a younger age. Not only does it...

...CHAPTER 1 The Problem and Its Scope Alcohol has been cited as the drug of choice among the youth (National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA), 2006). It is prevalent, enduring, and rampant across the majority of the different realms worldwide. Underage drinking is when anyone under the minimum legal drinking age drinks alcohol. Aside from being illegal, it is a widespread public health problem that poses much risk attracting many developing adolescents and teens. The use of alcohol is a worldwide concern resulting to millions of death, including hundreds of thousands of young lives lost. Indicators revealed that underage drinking seem to be on the rise among the adolescents. Statistics showed the assessment of the five-year trend of under-age drinking where out of 73 responding countries, 71 percent indicated an increase, 4 percent a decrease, 8 percent were stable and 16 percent showed inconclusive trends (World Health Organization [WHO] Global Survey on Alcohol and Health, 2011). According to the World Health Report (2002) alcohol is responsible for 4 percent of total diseases burden and 3.2 percent of all premature deaths. It is associated with more than 60 types of diseases and other health conditions, including mental disorders and suicide, several types of cancer, and other non- communicable diseases such as cirrhosis, as well as intentional and unintentional injuries. It is very dangerous and harmful for the health and well-being of people especially...

...dilemma faced by organizations, economical situations and their social responsibility. How evil forces exploiting these conditions to benefit them, in which most of them are work for government officials, politicians and retailers. The society had adverse effects from persons addicted to alcohol. Alcohol is held responsible for a clichés of accidents and injuries in India, including road traffic trashes. The deaths caused by alcohol poisoning has been at alarming state. The regulations made by government of India inefficient. Prevention programs and treatment facilities are wholly insufficient to meet India's needs. It can be anticipated that alcohol use and related problems will grow in India in the future. Unless planned policy changes are designed and vigorously implemented these problems are likely to produce an excessive burden on this developing country's resources. Introduction Alcohol consumption has been a tradition since ages and it plays a significance role in religion culture and medicine. Alcohol is become a part of celebrations like birthdays, marriages, festivals. In other words right from human birthday to his death every major occasion has to be filled with alcohol.

...The Divine Drinking Debate: Biblical Alcohol Use and How it Relates to Today’s American Culture Mary Van Winkle Religious Studies 023 Fall 2004 Temperance as an American Cultural Issue The use of alcohol among conservative Christians in America has been a hotly debated topic for years. It began with the Women’s Crusade in 1873-74, the Anti-Saloon League in 1893 and the Women’s Christian Temperance Union, movements against businesses that sold alcohol and the gambling and prostitution that sometimes went hand-in-hand. Their momentum culminated in 1920 as the Eighteenth Amendment to the Constitution was ratified prohibiting the manufacture, sale or transportation of intoxicating liquors. Just over thirteen years later, however, the Eighteenth Amendment was repealed by the ratification of the Twenty-First Amendment, which gave states the rights to legislate their own liquor laws. It appears that the intense stance against drinking may be primarily a phenomenon of the American culture, and particularly limited to Protestants. According to Ruth C. Engs, “Numerous studies from both the United States and Europe have suggested that Protestants consume less alcohol but perceive great problems with the substance. In contrast Roman Catholics consume more alcohol but do not perceive its consumption as problematic.” Also according to Engs, in Northern European countries, where the Roman Empire had little influence...

Furthermore, many of the advertising examples displayed images of excessive consumption. In addition, the Conference noted...

Para evitar la caries o la gingivitis, el procedimiento es tan sabido que parece una cantaleta: el primer paso es cepillar los dientes a diario después de cada comida, recurrir al hilo dental para eliminar los restos de comida escondidos entre los dientes... y el uso de enjuagues bucales. Sí, el uso de estos últimos no es superfluo, como muchos pueden creer. Pero no todas las marcas son igual de capaces de auxiliar en la salud bucodental. Febrero 2009 • Consumidor 45 L os enjuagues bucales ayudan a suprimir temporalmente el mal aliento, reducen las bacterias en la boca y la refrescan, dejando en ella un sabor agradable. Algunos contienen ingredientes activos para ayudar a proteger contra enfermedades orales como la caries o la gingivitis. La caries dental es una enfermedad común, aunque en los últimos años su frecuencia ha disminuido gracias a los programas de salud bucodental, a una mayor atención dental y a la utilización de algunos ingredientes activos en los dentífricos y en las aguas de consumo. La caries se caracteriza por la destrucción del esmalte dental y la dentina (tejido duro situado debajo del esmalte) ocasionado por bacterias (entre ellas el streptococcus mutans), que se desarrollan en la placa dental y producen un medio ácido que...

...Chapter 1 THE PROBLEM AND ITS SETTING Introduction Alcoholism is a disease in which an individual continues to crave for alcohol despite of repeated alcohol-related problems. The signs of alcoholism and alcohol abuse are very similar, and are often just a question of degree or intensity. Typically, the last person to be aware that he/she has a serious drinking problem is the alcoholic himself/herself - they are in denial. Some signs and symptoms of alcoholism as well as alcohol abuse include, drinking alone, not being able to limit how much alcohol is consumed, dropping hobbies and activities the person used to enjoy; losing interest in them, feeling an urge to drink, having relationship problems, having problems with the law, having money problems, and requiring a larger quantity of alcohol to feel its effect (Videbeck, 2007). Alcoholism does not only affect the adults. According to Sociological theory, alcoholism is a learned response. This often happens at a young age. A child may see things around them or on TV of people drinking and they tend to believe that is the right thing to do. This addiction is primarily believed to be because of society's influences. This often will affect persons who mostly drink in groups. This theory is based more on the peer pressure a person might receive, so they often turn to alcohol drinking problems during college years. Moreover, it has become a public health concern because of its effect on the future of a child. The goal of the...

...Case Study of Betty Ford Substances like alcohol are used for many reasons. Alcohol is frequently used as a means of celebration, and also to assist in diminishing feelings of being anxious or overwhelmed. Some people use alcohol in social settings, whereas other people may drink alone. The use of alcohol to self-medicate when challenges come up in everyday life can cause significant problems. In many instances a person can become totally dependent on alcohol so that he or she can function appropriately. If a person builds a tolerance to alcohol, he or she will most likely need to drink every day as well as consuming larger amounts in order to achieve the same feeling. One of the most prominent and well-known instances of alcoholism and substance abuse is Betty Ford. Betty Ford was married to President Gerald R. Ford and was thought to be one of the most powerful first ladies in our history. Betty Ford’s achievements include her sponsorships of breast cancer awareness and women’s rights (Meyer, Chapman, & Weaver, 2009). Even though Betty Ford was acknowledged and respected for these achievements, she turn out to be an even greater inspiration in society when she admitted to and overcame her lifetime battles with prescription drugs and alcohol. Betty Ford was raised in Grand Rapids, Michigan and was the only daughter and youngest of three children (The National First Ladies’ Library, 2012). Even though Betty had a pleasant and positive childhood, her mother was considered...

...Earnest Hemingway said, “An intelligent man is sometimes force to be drunk to spend time with fools.” The question is, does excessive drinking cause one to develop the state of mind that those around them are fools? Or does one drink to bear the company of others? Then, one has to wonder if loneliness like in “Drinking Alone by Moonlight” by Li Po, when self-inflicted, is still the same. When does it evolve into hate, like in the “Hate Poem” by Julie Sheehan for instance? Drinking holds a lot of positive and negative reputation with it. Great wines make one appear “classy and sophisticated,” the ability to drink large amounts of alcohol make one appear to be “tough” or “cool” among today’s youth. Drinking, partying, and hanging out with friends are all phrases that have come to have the same meaning in today’s vocabulary. What kid’s don’t consider is the effects of long term drinking such as, loneliness, depression, alcoholism, and many other issues. Perhaps if kids knew that it could lead them down the path to, “drink(ing) alone, for no friend is near,” (Li Po pg. 457) they would not take it so lightly. Perhaps if the youth knew that loneliness and alcoholism could easily and quickly develop into hatred of others and things around them, furthering the sense of loneliness that Po felt. It can lead to the type of hate that involves everything one does such as, “the flick of my wrist,” and “the way I hold my pencil.” (Sheehan pg. 412) The fact of the matter is that these emotions...
