...Again, plenty of opportunities to manufacture or grow your own stuff, but nowhere to buy it straight from a dealer. Also lots of paeans to the wondrous effects of heroin, most dating back to the 19th century, when opium was all the rage, and when kids were given heroin in the form of cough syrup. You can also read horrific addiction stories by people who've fallen in love with heroin and lived to tell about it. Support groups for addicts abound as well, as do contact numbers for needle exchange centers...

Most seniors have a difficult time taking such advice. First semester, all the rage was talking about blowing off summer research or switching topics or something else just as tantalizing as that.

...many cannot handle the honesty of Finley’s rage; conservatives have frequently tried to prevent her from receiving federal funding. Last Thursday, she gave Harvard students a chance to judge her for themselves when she came to the Carpenter Center and delivered a lecture entitled “The Body as Rorshach Test.” Clad all in black with silky auburn hair, and a svelte yet womanly figure, Finley looked more like a striking movie star than a queen of grotesquery...

Like most doctors, I've watched with concern the growing use of so-called club drugs--psychotropic substances that catch on from time to time among teenagers and young adults and become the rage at dance clubs and all-night raves. I know about ecstasy, Rohypnol and ketamine. But I was taken by surprise last week when Noelle Bush, daughter of Florida Governor Jeb Bush (and the President's niece), was arrested in Tallahassee trying to buy Xanax, having allegedly borrowed the name of a retired doctor and called in a bogus prescription.
