lysergic acid diethylamide is a hallucinogen
Hallucinogens are also called psychedelics or psychotomimetic agents.
Hallucinogens are substances that induce changes in thought, perception, and mood, without causing major disturbances in the autonomic nervous system.
Perceptual alterations can take the form of illusions, synaesthesias, or hallucinations.
Illusion: Misinterpretation of an actual experience
Synaesthesias: Sensory misperceptions (e.g. hearing colour or seeing sounds).
Both require external stimuli for their institution.
Hallucinations differ from them in this important respect, since they are perceptual alterations without any external stimulation.
5 A’s of smoking cessation guidelines, Nicotine replacement therapy (NRT), Bupropion, Varenicline, Tips to quit smoking and Complementary Health Approaches for Smoking Cessation are discussed in this presentation.
Drugs are a major constraints in our community targeting adults and young people. Substance abuse education is vital to teach the society of the danger of all the types of drugs that are out there.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

seventeen year-old drug addict
At night she sleeps with her few remaining valuables.
Her cash, credit card, and car keys. She wears the one
bracelet she still owns constantly. Her son has stolen her
heirlooms, jewelry, anything of value so he could buy
heroin.
She does not know what to do about her son. No matter
what she does, “ she sees the evidence on his arms and in
his eyes.” “ „I wish my son would just die already‟
Colleen said, „so I could get this over with.‟ “

14. Cures and
Solutions
One popular cure for heroin addicts is the
‘methadone way’. Methadone is a legal drug
that is not intoxicating or sedating. It is used to
quench heroin cravings. However while it stops
heroin addicts from being addicted to heroin it
makes them addicted to methadone.
Another curing drug is buprenorphine. It blocks
the effects of heroin and morphine.
Some other drugs that are ‘curing drugs’ are
naloxone and naltrexone, they are used to help
15. Cures and Solutions
Most heroin addicts go to a rehabilitation
center or a hospital to be treated by a
physician so they can avoid withdrawal
symptoms in detoxification treatment. Many
last at least three to four months.
Some treatments combine methadone or
buprenorphine with psychotherapy. Often
with behavioral therapists.
