  • Substance Abuse and Addictions Management
    SUBSTANCE ABUSE AND ADDICTIONS MANAGEMENT Substance abuse , also known as drug abuse , is a patterned use of a substance (drug) in which the user consumes the substance in amounts or with methods neither approved nor supervised by medical professionals. Substance abuse/drug abuse is not limited to mood-altering or psycho-active drugs. If an activity is performed using the objects against the rules and policies of the matter (as in steroids for performance enhancement in sports), it is also called substance abused. Therefore, mood-altering and psychoactive substances are not the only types of drug abuse. Using illicit drugs – narcotics, stimulants, depressants (sedatives), hallucinogens, cannabis, even glues and paints, are also considered to be classified as drug/substance abuse. [2] Substance abuse often includes problems with impulse control and impulsive behaviour. The term "drug abuse" does not exclude dependency, but is otherwise used in a similar manner in nonmedical contexts. The terms have a huge range of definitions related to taking a psychoactive drug or performance enhancing drug for a non- therapeutic or non-medical effect. All of these definitions imply a negative judgment of the drug use in question (compare with the term responsible drug use for alternative views). Some of the drugs most often associated with this term include alcohol, amphetamines, barbiturates, benzodiazepines (particularly temazepam, nimetazepam, and flunitrazepam), cocaine, methaqualone, and opioids. Use of these drugs may lead to criminal penalty in addition to possible physical, social, and psychological harm, both strongly depending on local jurisdiction. [3] There are many cases in which criminal or antisocial behavior occur when the person is under the influence of a drug.

  • The Daughtry Times Identification No
    Volume 7 Edition 8 | 2012-13 Academic School Year SUBSCRIPTION: 38 of 38 | The Daughtry Times Identification No. 242 In Lawsuit Over Death, “The Enforcer’s” Family Blames the NHL Friday, May 17, 2013 | John Branch, The New York Times The family of Derek Boogaard has filed a wrongful-death lawsuit against the National Hockey League. It contends that the N.H.L. is responsible for the physical trauma and brain damage that Boogaard sustained during six seasons as one of the league’s top enforcers, and for the addiction to prescription painkillers that marked his final two years. Boogaard was under contract to the Rangers when he was found dead of an accidental overdose of prescription painkillers and alcohol on May 13, 2011. He was 28. He was posthumously found to have chronic traumatic encephalopathy, or C.T.E., a brain disease caused by repeated blows to the head. “To distill this to one sentence,” said William Gibbs, a lawyer for the Boogaards, “you take a young man, you subject him to trauma, you give him pills for that trauma, he becomes addicted to those pills, you promise to treat him for that addiction, and you fail.” The N.H.L., through a spokesman, declined to comment Sunday. In 55 pages of detailed accusations, the suit does not seek specific damages to be awarded to Boogaard’s parents and four siblings. It asks that a trial jury determine “a sum in excess of the minimum jurisdictional limit” for each of eight counts in the suit. The suit was filed late Friday by the Chicago law firm of Corboy & Demetrio in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Ill.

  • Gordie Howe Was a Symbol of NHL Past
    This page was exported from - The Auroran Export date: Sat Oct 2 9:10:59 2021 / +0000 GMT FIVE MINUTE MAJOR: Gordie Howe was a symbol of NHL past By Jake Courtepatte As a twenty-something, I find it surprisingly difficult to write how I feel about Gordie Howe: not the Gordie Howe I know, grey-haired and waving from the seats with an old Red Wings jersey and a spotlight on him, but Mr. Hockey, Mr. Elbows, the toughest man in hockey. But as a lifelong hockey fan, I still feel the need to do him justice. So I thought, why not ask my dad? Here is the first seldom-told story he gave me, smiling. When goaltender Gump Worsley broke into the NHL with the New York Rangers in 1952, Howe was just beginning the prime of his career. In a game between the Rangers and Howe's Detroit Red Wings, the 24-year-old Howe had a chance to tuck away a supposed empty-netter late in the game, with Worsley diving back towards the crease in the hope of making the save. The maskless Worsley (he was once quoted as saying ?my face is my mask?) never faced the shot. When asked later why he kept the puck on his stick, instead of risking hitting Worsley square in the face, Howe simply said he would get plenty more chances on Worsley. In March of 1962, Howe became the second player to ever score 500 NHL goals, after Maurice Richard, in a 3 ? 2 Detroit victory over the New York Rangers and Gump Worsley.

Law School Student Scholarship. 925. https://scholarship.shu.edu/student_scholarship/925 Introduction This article analyzes the viability of the National Hockey League Players Association’s recklessness and negligence claims against the National Hockey League for its liability relating to traumatic brain injuries.1 In doing so, Part I of this article explores the overtly physical and violent- laden culture that is deeply-rooted within the sport of professional ice hockey. Additionally, Part I will examine the general nature of the allegations contained within the National Hockey League Concussion Litigation. Following this brief overview, Part II of this article outlines the American legal perspectives relating to tortious liability for injuries sustained as a result of player to player conduct. To illustrate the potential application of such tort law principles with regards to professional ice hockey-related claims, this section will analyze various case law, as well as the events that occurred on January 27, 2016, in which NHL Linesman, Don Henderson, was forcefully struck in his neck/head by Calgary Flames defenseman, Dennis Wideman.2 Thereafter, Part III discusses the implications of the legal standards depicted in Part II in an attempt to determine the general viability of the Players claims against the League.3 Additionally, this section 1 See Complaint for Damages and Demand for Jury Trial, Leeman, v.

  • Fighting in the National Hockey League from 19
    Antonio Sirianni Dartmouth College The Specialization of Informal Social Control: Fighting in the National Hockey League from 1947-2019 Abstract: Fighting in ice hockey has long been of interest to sociologists of sport and serves as a highly visible and well-documented example of informal social control and peer punishment. Drawing on over 70 years of play-by-play records from the National Hockey League, this paper examines how the ritual of fighting has changed over time in terms of context (when fights happen), distribution (who fights), and patterns of interaction (who fights whom). These changes highlight the subtle transformation of fighting from a duel-like retaliatory act, towards the status-seeking practice of specialized but less-skilled players commonly referred to as “enforcers”. This analysis not only broadens our understanding of ice hockey fighting and violence, but also informs our understanding of the theoretical relationships between specialization, status, and signaling processes, and provides a highly-detailed look at the evolution of a system of informal control and governance. *Earlier versions of this work have been presented at the 2015 Conference for the International Network of Analytical Sociologists in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and the 2016 Meeting of the American Sociological Association in Seattle, Washington. The author wishes to thank Benjamin Cornwell, Thomas Davidson, Daniel Della Posta, Josh Alan Kaiser, Sunmin Kim, Michael Macy, and Kimberly Rogers, as well as several anonymous reviewers, for helpful comments and suggestions. 1 Introduction: The sport of ice hockey, particularly at the professional ranks within North America, has long hosted a somewhat peculiar ritual: routine fist fights between members of opposing teams.
