Additionally, people that start using alcohol before the age of 15 are four times more likely to an alcohol alco-hol addiction at some point in their lives, compared to those who start drinking at the legal age of 21. Advertising and other media messages play a big role in setting set-ting social standards concerning concern-ing underage drinking. It has been proven that advertisements advertise-ments for alcoholic beverages influence current drinking be- quirement for oxyfuel was purely political, as included in the Clean Air Act amendments, and had nothing to do with any scientific analysis." "The vote of the Air Quality Board enables the requirement to be incorporated into state law effective May 18, 2004. It is then incumbent on the EPA to approve the CO Maintenance plan in order to eliminate oxyfuel oxyfu-el for the 2004-2005 winter season. sea-son. However, the EPA needs to act in some fashion before the end of June, since that is when the petroleum refiners need to be notified as to whether oxygenate oxy-genate will be needed for the winter season," added Grover. ltri utm I Bank.

Steroid products are dangerous," danger-ous," Hatch said. "They hurt the public health. They are giving sports a black eye, and they endanger en-danger kids. So, it's a no-brain-er.

The FDA's action is based on a provision in the Dietary Supplement Sup-plement Health and Education Act of 1994 (DSHEA) which was authored by Hatch that requires manufacturers of new dietary ingredients not sold before be-fore 1994 to submit a petition to the FDA 75 days prior to marketing mar-keting that provides the agency with evidence the product is safe. Hatch and Sen. Joseph Biden (D-Del.) reintroduced the The Anabolic Steroid Control Act of 2003, which would remove the requirement that a substance be proven to promote muscle growth from the Steroid Control Con-trol Act and make it easier to add steroid precursors such as androstenedione and THG to be added to the list of Schedule Sched-ule III anabolic steroids. A similar simi-lar effort is underway in the House of Representatives. "Under this bill, clever chemists will no longer be able to dodge the law by disguising their chemicals to skirt the legal definition of a steroid. Our bill gives DEA the power to schedule sched-ule nearly any steroid precursor now or in the future giving the law flexibility so we don't have to play catch-up with every new andro look-alike that comes along." said 1 latch. ft $199 month and ZERO down Up to $5000 OFF SPANISH FORK 2534 North 200 East (801) 798-3553 00. wl6r a dews. atgMty I i , .,.. f - -iSm.
