    A Comparison of Patients Relapsing to Addictive Drug Use with Non-relapsing Patients Following Residential Addiction Treatment in Antigua TC Martin1,2, JA Josiah-Martin1, J Kosakoski1, K Norton1, T Sinnott1 ABSTRACT The outcome of a 29-day residential addiction treatment programme for persons from Antigua and Barbuda with addiction to drugs or alcohol was assessed. All 100 patients entering the drug and alco- hol treatment programme at Crossroads Centre Antigua between November 1998 and October 2002 were included. All patients were assessed with regards to drug or alcohol use or abstinence in November 2002 using telephone and mail follow-up as well as informal follow-up with families and other community contacts. Crossroads Centre Antigua is a 35 bed, 29-day residential treatment centre for drug and alcohol addiction serving patients from developed countries (85%) and from the Caribbean region (15%). Patients records were also reviewed to obtain age, gender, ethnicity, drug of choice, years of problematic use, completion of the 29 day programme, family member participation at Crossroads Centre Antigua (a four-day programme) and acceptance of halfway house placement. Of the 100 Antiguan patients admitted, 46 (46%) were abstinent (non-relapsers) at average 20.7 ± 14.7 months after treatment. Abstinence did not have to be continuous. Forty-nine were known to be using drug or alcohol (49%) and five (5%) were lost to follow-up and considered to be using drugs (relapsers). Age (37.5 vs 41.1 years), gender (28% vs 22% female), ethnicity (87% vs 87% Afro- Caribbean), years of harmful use (12.7 vs 12.5 years) did not differ significantly between relapsers and non-relapsers.

    ERIC CLAPTON BIOGRAFIA Eric Patrick Clapton nasceu em 30/03/1945 em Ripley, Inglaterra. Ganhou a sua primeira guitarra aos 13 anos e se interessou pelo Blues americano de artistas como Robert Johnson e Muddy Waters. Apelidado de Slowhand, é considerado um dos melhores guitarristas do mundo. O reconhecimento de Clapton só começou quando entrou no “Yardbirds”, banda inglesa de grande influência que teve o mérito de reunir três dos maiores guitarristas de todos os tempos em sua formação: Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck e Jimmy Page. Apesar do sucesso que o grupo fazia, Clapton não admitia abandonar o Blues e, em sua opinião, o Yardbirds estava seguindo uma direção muito pop. Sai do grupo em 1965, quando John Mayall o convida a juntar-se à sua banda, os “Blues Breakers”. Gravam o álbum “Blues Breakers with Eric Clapton”, mas o relacionamento com Mayall não era dos melhores e Clapton deixa o grupo pouco tempo depois. Em 1966, forma os “Cream” com o baixista Jack Bruce e o baterista Ginger Baker. Com a gravação de 4 álbuns (“Fresh Cream”, “Disraeli Gears”, “Wheels Of Fire” e “Goodbye”) e muitos shows em terras norte americanas, os Cream atingiram enorme sucesso e Eric Clapton já era tido como um dos melhores guitarristas da história. A banda separa-se no fim de 1968 devido ao distanciamento entre os membros. Neste mesmo ano, Clapton a convite de seu amigo George Harisson, toca na faixa “While My Guitar Gently Weeps” do White Album dos Beatles. Forma os “Blind Faith” em 1969 com Steve Winwood, Ginger Baker e Rick Grech, que durou por pouco tempo, lançando apenas um album.

There was a housecleaning of product, and when the start wasn’t a vindication of the music or the artist − it those records got cut out, they didn’t come into print again was the vindication of the There’s One In Every Crowd and for a decade.

To learn more, visit www.conocophillips.com © ConocoPhillips Company. 2017. All rights reserved. SHARING INSIGHTS From the desk of Ryan Lance Chairman & CEO AS THE HOUSTON AREA RECOVERS from the devastating aftermath of Hurricane Harvey, I continue to be impressed by the incredible compassion and resilience of our ConocoPhillips workforce. We are forging ahead on many fronts, including the completion of this special issue of spirit Magazine featuring the annual SPIRIT of Performance Awards. One of the most important responsibilities of my job is meeting with ConocoPhillips employees and listening to their ideas and concerns. During the past quarter, I visited China, Malaysia and Indonesia and saw the amazing work our people are doing on projects such as additional development phases at the Peng Lai field in Bohai Bay; production rampup and an active exploration program in Malaysia; and an initiative to sell more gas in Indonesia. During a visit to Alaska, I heard excitement around our Willow discovery in the National Petroleum Reserve and the active upcoming winter drilling campaign. In July, the company’s board of directors joined me on a visit to our Bakken operations in North Dakota, where the team patiently answered all our questions and showed why ConocoPhillips is recognized as an operator of choice in that important region.
