PREVENTING DRUG-RELATED DEATHS AT MUSIC FESTIVALS: WHY THE “RAVE” ACT SHOULD BE AMENDED TO PROVIDE AN EXCEPTION FOR HARM REDUCTION SERVICES ROBIN MOHR INTRODUCTION Amid flashing lights and pulsing beats, nearly 100,000 electronic dance music fans attended Electric Zoo on New York’s Randall’s Island in August 2013.1 Unfortunately the party was cut short. Following the deaths of two young fans, the final day of the three-day music festival was can- celed at the request of city authorities.2 In separate incidents, Olivia Ro- tondo, a twenty-year-old University of New Hampshire student, and Jeffrey Russ, a twenty-three-year-old Syracuse University graduate,3 died after collapsing at Electric Zoo with high body temperatures.4 Toxicology results revealed that Ms.

    HAWAII OPERA THEATRE By Giuseppe Verdi February 1, 3 & 5, 2008 NEAL S. BLAISDELL CONCERT HALL oahu 2118 kalakaua avenue 808.921.1000, ala moana center 808.942.1148 maui the shops at wailea 808.879.1060 shop gucci.com Director’s Notes by HENRY G. AKINA Don Carlo is often considered Verdi’s most Wagnerian work. It makes use of the evolving structure of the Musiktheater, made so popular by Wagner, and introduces several motives that can be seen almost as Wagnerian leitmotifs. Verdi creates an entire political world set in Spain during the reign of Philip II. The opera follows four members of the Habsburg family: Philip II, King of all the world, son of an Emperor and ruler of a kingdom that “the sun never sets upon." Champion of the Catholic faith, devoted ruler and supporter of the Inquisition. This man rules his empire from a small room in the bowels of the Escurial palace. Likened by his enemies to a spider at the center of its web. At the time of the opera he has married three times. His current wife he married in spite of the fact that she had originally been promised to his son, Don Carlo. This marriage is one of the greatest burdens of his life. He does not know how to love. He is fiercely anti-protestant. His presence is felt oppressively in Flanders, a hot-bed of this new and troublesome movement. He has unleashed his armies and the Inquisition upon them. Elisabetta, Queen of Spain, daughter of Katharina de Medici and the King of France.

THIS EVENT MARKS ALMOST FIFTEEN YEARS OF INTERNATIONAL CLUB HEALTH CONFERENCES, AND THE FIRST TIME SUCH AN EVENT HAS HAPPENED IN THE AMERICAS. We’re EXCITED TO BRING EXPERTS FROM EUROPE, AUSTRALIA AND ASIA TOGETHER WITH THOSE FROM NORTH AND SOUTH AMERICA FOR THE FIRST TIME. We’re hosting Club Health in San Francisco not just because the city is known for its diverse and vibrant nightlife, but also because it is among the best in North America for implementing progressive, health-oriented nightlife policies that arise out of a process that keeps the whole community in mind. Our local partners – the San Francisco Public Health Department, the California Music and Culture Association and the San Francisco Entertainment Commission – are a sign of that commitment. The people in San Francisco have realized something that more cities across the United States, Canada and even Mexico and South America are starting to see: that a city’s nightlife powers its economic engine, and gives it a particular quality that makes it compelling to visit. Nightlife has value for its business and cultural aspects, but it also presents significant health and safety

  • Preloading and Post-Loading Among Ecstasy-Using Youth^
    Mediating MDMA-Related Harm: Preloading and Post-loading Among Ecstasy-Using Youth^ Brian C. Kelly, Ph.D.* Abstract—Ecstasy use remains a key concern for professionals working in fields related to youth and drug use. At the forefront of these concerns are issues related to neurological dysfunction and depression—both acute and long-term—associated with MDMA use. Ecstasy users have been shown • to assess Ecstasy related harms and to engage in a variety of practices to manage these risks. To contend with risk related to neurological dysfunction and depression, some youth have tumed to "preloading" and "post-loading": the practice of consuming other substances to mitigate the negative effects of Ecstasy. Drawing upon data from an ethnographic study of club drug use among youth, the author provides a descriptive profile of the practices of preloading and post-loading as well as the motivations underlying these behaviors among New York City area youth. Youth utilize a range of preloading and post-loading practices, yet do not universally share similar practices, attitudes, and knowledge. It is critical to link clinical and behavioral sciences research to further study both the efficacy and safety of these practices. Keywords—club drugs. Ecstasy, harm reduction, pre-loading, post-loading, youth With the global surge in Ecstasy use during recent de- between 1996 and 2001, with lifetime prevalence figures cades, and the potential for harm associated with the use of almost doubling (Johnston, O'Malley & Bachman 2002).

  • Drug Criminalization Vs. Harm Reduction
    Running head: DRUG CRIMINALIZATION VS. HARM REDUCTION The Ideological Conflict between the Criminalization of Drug Use and Harm Reduction Programming Jessica Murray, M.A. Submitted in fulfillment of the requirements of Master of Arts in Criminology Faculty of Social Science and Humanities University of Ontario Institute of Technology Oshawa, Ontario February, 2019 DRUG CRIMINALIZATION VS. HARM REDUCTION Abstract Policies that criminalize individuals who use drugs were first enacted for the purpose of imposing deviant identities on impoverished and racialized communities. These policies, which are disproportionately enforced, have serious social, economic, and public health implications. Harm reduction philosophies seek to alleviate these consequences, but access to such programming is impeded by the stigma, enforcement, and professionalization of service provision associated with repressive drug policies. The failed War on Drugs is in opposition to harm reduction principles, thus exacerbating the harms of drug use in addition to generating unique harms of its own. In order to achieve justice for the drug using community, the mobilization of drug policy reform advocacy at all levels is necessary. In order to contextualize the stigma faced by individuals who use drugs, this report will illustrate the social construction of drug use as immoral and subsequent labelling of people who use drugs as deviant in an examination of the historical context of drug prohibitions and harm reduction philosophies. In highlighting the empirical evidence in support of harm reduction programming, I identify gaps in service provision and assess the ways in which prohibitory drug policies act as a barrier to service delivery, and in conclusion, provide recommendations for policy reform and means for achieving structural change.
