Eleven physicians meet in Washington, D.C., to establish the U.S. Pharmacopeia, the first compendium of standard drugs for the United States. A Brief History of Early Drug Regulation in the United States The U.S. Food and Drug Administration is the oldest federal agency dedicated to consumer protection, originating as a single chemist appointed to the U.S. Department of Agriculture in 1862. FDA in 2006 employed more than 10,000 toxicologists, chemists, pharmacologists, physicians, microbiologists, pharmacists, veterinarians, lawyers, and others. This poster, excerpted from materials produced by the FDA’s History Office (On-line information at www.fda.gov\oc\history) highlights the fascinating early origins of the regulation of medicines and accompanies several objects generously loaned by the University of Arizona’s Museum of Pharmacy.

Food Fraud and the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act: Bridging a Disconnect
Food Fraud and the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act: Bridging a Disconnect CARISSA CRUSE* ABSTRACT To protect society’s food supply, the term food fraud should be replaced with the term food adulteration when used by the crusaders against food fraud. The term food fraud causes confusion from a legal perspective because it requires an intent to harm in order to take any protective and enforcement measures. This is backwards and needs to be corrected. Replacing food fraud with food adulteration will remove scienter as an element and replace it with a strict liability standard, so that when the food supply is harmed, that alone is enough to take action against the perpetrator of the harm. There is too much at stake when it comes to society’s health, businesses, and cultural requirements to permit a higher standard, specifically one that requires intent. Protecting society’s food supply includes many definitions. For this article, I suggest the crusaders against food fraud adopt the term food adulteration as the umbrella term that includes economic adulteration, food fraud, economically motivated adulteration, and food terrorism (food defense). I also suggest FDA eliminate its working definition of economic adulteration and revert to the definition of adulteration found in statute. Each term is individually defined in the chart below; however, generally, the word “adulterate” is defined as “to corrupt, debase, or make impure by the addition of a foreign or inferior substance or element especially: to prepare for sale by replacing more valuable with less valuable or inert ingredients.”1 Food Adulteration Refers to any change in a food product that a consumer (umbrella term) is unaware of regardless of intent.

Roosevelt Becomes a Progressive Leader
ROOSEVELT BECOMES A PROGRESSIVE LEADER Directions: Read the two articles about Roosevelt and answer the questions which follow. Roosevelt the Progressive Theodore Roosevelt, a Harvard graduate and Conservationist, was viewed as the most important representative of Progressivism. He came to people’s attention at the time of the Spanish-American War. His courageous charge up San Juan Hill during that war made him a hero. Roosevelt was elected Republican governor of New York, partly through the efforts of Senator Thomas C. Platt. Platt was the Republican boss of New York State who thought that Roosevelt could help his business interests. However, Roosevelt had no intention of serving Platt’s interests. He attacked the ties between business and government and refused to appoint Platt’s choice for state insurance commissioner. To get Roosevelt out of the governorship, the Republican party nominated him as Vice-President to run with William McKinley. The VP was considered a dead end job; but when McKinley was assassinated in 1901, Roosevelt became President. Roosevelt was an active and strong President. He believed that the Federal Government should become involved when states were unable to deal with problems. He also believed the President should help shape legislative policy. Roosevelt promised farmers, workers, and small business people a “square deal.” When a 1902 coal strike could not be resolved, Roosevelt appointed a commission to make recommendations for settling the strike. For the first time, the federal government intervened in a strike in order to protect the public welfare. Roosevelt worked to curb trusts when they became harmful to the public interest.

Theodore Roosevelt Compressed a Great Deal of Life Into His Short Sixty One Years
President Theodore “Teddy” Roosevelt Three years before the American Civil War one of the country’s most beloved presidents was born in New York City on October 27, 1858. Theodore Roosevelt compressed a great deal of life into his short sixty one years. Politician, Statesman, Conservationist, and President of the United States Theodore’s early years were racked with health issues and a body weakened by asthma. Living in the family home in New York City, young Teddy was considered too weak for regular school so his parents hired private tutors for him. He was extremely brilliant and obsessed with a fascination for all things about nature. He even called his own bedroom the “Roosevelt Museum of Natural History.” Even though he showed a great aptitude for learning “T.R.” was still in very poor physical condition. His father even put an entire gymnasium in one room of their very large home to help his son gain strength. The young Roosevelt was obsessed with overcoming his frail body and worked daily to build up his physique. He even took up boxing. Entering into Harvard University in 1876, he was both scholarly and outstanding in boxing. One of his early efforts as a writer resulted in a book titled “The Naval War of 1812.” His work was so well regarded that it was required reading at the United States Naval Academy. Planning to become an attorney, Teddy enrolled in Columbia University. But while he was still at Harvard, in 1880, he met the beautiful Alice Lee the daughter of a prominent Boston banker.

The Untold History of Substantive Due Process and the Idea of Fundamental Rights
A Tale of Two Lochners: The Untold History of Substantive Due Process and the Idea of Fundamental Rights Victoria F. Nourset To say that the Supreme Court's decision in Lochner v. New York, is infamous is an understatement. Scholars remember Lochner for its strong right to contract and laissez-faire ideals-at least that is the conventional account of the case. Whether one concludes that Lochner leads to the judicial activism of Roe v. Wade, or foreshadows strong property rights, 2 the standard account depends upon an important assumption: that the Lochner era's conception of fundamental rights parallels that of today.3 From that assumption, it appears to follow that Lochner symbolizes the grave political dangers of substantive due Copyright © 2009 California Law Review, Inc.

Westward Expansion and Industrialization
Industry & Progressivism The definition of gilded according to the Merriam- Webster dictionary is “to give an attractive but often deceptive appearance.” The Gilded Age in U.S. is the late 19th century, from the 1870s to about 1900. It was a time of enormous growth, attracting millions from Europe. Most of the growth and prosperity occurred only in the North and West. What was going on in the South at this time? Industry & Progressivism Industry & Progressivism The Gilded Age was a period of transformation in the economy, technology, government, and social customs of America. This formation forged a modern, national industrial society out of what had been small regional communities. Many new corporations and businesses gave way to ultra-rich individuals. The period was also marked by social movements for reform, the creation of machine politics, and continued immigration. The summer home of Cornelius Vanderbilt II. Built in 1893, it typifies the excesses of Gilded Age wealth. Industry & Progressivism Laissez-faire French word that literally translates to “leave alone” or “let it be” In economics, this means allowing industry to be free of state intervention, especially restrictions in the form of tariffs and government monopolies. Industry & Progressivism Bessemer Process The Bessemer Process was developed in 1855 when the Englishman Henry Bessemer invented a process to create steel from iron which produced steel cheaply and efficiently.
