Trials on children have not been carried out in all the drugs, but the completed studies show a worrying increase in suicidal behaviour among those on SSRIs compared with those given a placebo (sugar pill). None of the drugs has a licence for use in children with depression in the UK, but GPs have prescribed more and more SSRIs for children. It is estimated that as many as 50,000 children are on antidepressants in Britain.

A Bad Call on Ozone
September
2, 2011
President Obama’s decision not to proceed with stronger air-quality standards governing ozone is a setback for public health and the environment and a
victory for industry and its Republican friends in Congress. The president sought to assuage Ms. Jackson by reminding her that a host of other environmental rules approved or in the works — including mandating cleaner cars and fewer [ moins de ] power plant emissions of mercury and other pollutants — would do much to clean the air. All true. But there is still no excuse for compromising on public health and allowing politics to trump science.

States Prosecute Fewer [ moins de ] Teenagers in Adult Courts
March 5, 2011
A generation after record levels of youth crime spurred a nationwide movement to prosecute more teenagers as adults, a consensus is emerging that many young delinquents have been mishandled
by
the adult court system. and next year will do the same for 17-year-olds. Illinois recently transferred certain low-level offenders younger than 18 into its juvenile system. And in January, lawmakers in Massachusetts introduced a bill to raise the age of adulthood in matters of crime,
and their counterparts in Wisconsin and North Carolina intend to do the same.
in criminal
matters, begins on the 16th birthday. that older adolescents differed significantly from adults in their capacity to make sound decisions, and benefited more from systems focused on treatment
rather than on
incarceration.

Still Few Women [ peu de ] in Management, Report Says
September 27, 2010
Women made little progress in climbing into management positions in this country even in the boom years before the financial crisis,
according to a report to be released on Tuesday by the Government
Accountability Office. women accounted for about 40 percent of managers in the United States work force. In 2000, women held 39 percent of management positions.
Outside of management, women held 49 percent of the jobs in both years. over the last few [ dernières ] decades. Full-time women workers closed the gap to 80.2 cents for every dollar earned by men in 2009, up from just 62.3 cents in 1979. Much of this persistent wage gap, however, can be explained by what kinds of jobs the sexes are drawn to,
whether by choice or opportunity.
