Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alcohol use by young people is extremely dangerous - both to themselves and society at large. Underage alcohol use is associated with traffic fatalities, violence, unsafe sex, suicide, educational failure, and other problem behaviors that diminish the prospects of future success, as well as health risks â€" and the earlier teens start drinking, the greater the danger. Despite these serious concerns, the media continues to make drinking look attractive to youth, and it remains possible and even easy for teenagers to get access to alcohol. Why is this dangerous behavior so pervasive? What can be done to prevent it? What will work and who is responsible for making sure it happens? Reducing Underage Drinking addresses these questions and proposes a new way to combat underage alcohol use. It explores the ways in which may different individuals and groups contribute to the problem and how they can be enlisted to prevent it. Reducing Underage Drinking will serve as both a game plan and a call to arms for anyone with an investment in youth health and safety.

Book excerpt: "The United States Code is the official codification of the general and permanent laws of the United States of America. The Code was first published in 1926, and a new edition of the code has been published every six years since 1934. The 2012 edition of the Code incorporates laws enacted through the One Hundred Twelfth Congress, Second Session, the last of which was signed by the President on January 15, 2013. It does not include laws of the One Hundred Thirteenth Congress, First Session, enacted between January 2, 2013, the date it convened, and January 15, 2013. By statutory authority this edition may be cited "U.S.C. 2012 ed." As adopted in 1926, the Code established prima facie the general and permanent laws of the United States. The underlying statutes reprinted in the Code remained in effect and controlled over the Code in case of any discrepancy. In 1947, Congress began enacting individual titles of the Code into positive law. When a title is enacted into positive law, the underlying statutes are repealed and the title then becomes legal evidence of the law. Currently, 26 of the 51 titles in the Code have been so enacted. These are identified in the table of titles near the beginning of each volume. The Law Revision Counsel of the House of Representatives continues to prepare legislation pursuant to 2 U.S.C. 285b to enact the remainder of the Code, on a title-by-title basis, into positive law. The 2012 edition of the Code was prepared and published under the supervision of Ralph V. Seep, Law Revision Counsel. Grateful acknowledgment is made of the contributions by all who helped in this work, particularly the staffs of the Office of the Law Revision Counsel and the Government Printing Office"--Preface.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This project examined a new community-level intervention strategy to achieve compliance with alcohol sales-to-minors law: Mystery Shops. Mystery Shops are attempted purchases of age- restricted products by young, legal-age inspectors for the purpose of providing feedback to licensees on actual staff age-verification conduct. Unlike law enforcement inspections, licensees and staff face no legal penalties for failing to check the ID of someone young enough to trigger and ID-check but not under the legal purchase age. Mystery shops have shown to be effective with large national chains that implemented programs under agreements with state attorneys general. Researchers working with the Responsible Retailing Forum hypothesized that Mystery Shops will similarly improve staff performance for independently owned and operated licensees. To test this, we partnered with the Oregon Liquor Control Commission and the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Control Commission to conduct 13 monthly Mystery Shops in 24 communities, 12 in each state: in 8 communities, licensees received on-the-spot feedback and follow-up reports; in 8 communities, licensees received 13 Mystery Shops in 24 communities, 12 in each state: in 8 communities, licensees received on-the-spot feedback and follow-up reports; in 8 communities, licensees received reports on aggregate community-level performance and Responsible Retailing best practices; and 8 other communities served as no-intervention controls. Retailing best practices; and 8 other communities served as no-intervention controls. If proven to be effective, Mystery Shops will a provide communities with a low-cost means for assisting licensees to reduce underage sales without taxing the limited resources of law enforcement.

This book was released on 1992 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This document presents the testimony of Surgeon General Antonia Novello of the U.S. Public Health Service, and related materials from a congressional hearing examining underage drinking. In her opening statement, Chairwoman Patricia Schroeder reviews the incidence of underage drinking and notes the role of the advertising industry in promoting drinking. Surgeon General Novello's testimony notes the pervasiveness of underage drinking and discusses the problems created by exposing adolescents to mixed messages on drinking. Novello contrasts the health message that the use of alcohol by young people can lead to serious health consequences with the advertising messages that promote drinking. She examines the problem of labeling that makes it difficult to distinguish alcoholic from nonalcoholic beverages on store shelves; designated drivers, and teenagers who ride with drinking drivers; and adolescents' lack of knowledge about alcohol. Actions taken by the Surgeon General to combat the problem of underage drinking are reviewed, and the problems encountered in enforcing the National Minimum Drinking Age Act of 1984 are discussed. Novello describes actions taken by individual states to prevent underage drinking. The role of advertising in promoting underage drinking is emphasized throughout the document. Included in the document are a fact sheet on preventing underage drinking; the prepared statement of Michael Kavanaugh, sheriff of Roanoke County, Virginia; comments by John Calfee, associate professor of Marketing, School of Management, Boston University; and a report from the Office of Inspector General, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

Book excerpt: Whether adults realize it or not, the world we portray shows children and teens that alcohol is an important part of enjoying life. It is only natural during the years a teen is exerting rights and seeking independence, that they'd want to try what we inundate them with in messaging as a good time. This fact of life is what leads us to the controversial, contentious, and never-ending debate on teen rights and alcohol. This collection of essays analyzes many issues related to alcohol, including the national minimum drinking age, the liability of adult hosts of social gatherings where minors are served alcohol, the prospect of a graduated alcohol licensing system that would loosen restrictions for people aged 18 to 20, and the growing trend of mandatory alcohol testing at high school dances.
