- Ecstasy -- Chemicals
Ecstasy is a street name for the chemical MDMA (methylenedioxymethamphetamine). It is a stimulant that combines the properties of methamphetamine (speed) with mind-altering or hallucinogenic properties. Ecstasy has a structure similar to stimulants like cocaine, and hallucinogenics such as LSD. The highly addictive nature of ecstasy is similar to that of cocaine and amphetamines. - Testing -- Miscellaneous
Various testing methods normally test for a "panel" of drugs. Typically, a drug panel tests for marijuana, cocaine, opioids, amphetamines, and PCP. If a school has a particular problem with other drugs, such as MDMA, GHB, or steroids, they can include testing for these drugs as well. - Ecstasy
Ecstasy is the name for MDMA (3-4 methylenedioxymethamphetamine). MDMA (and its close relation MDA) are classified as enactogens, drugs that have stimulant, hallucinogenic and mood-improving qualities. It was originally developed as a diet aid. Before it was made illegal in 1985, it was used experimentally by mental health professionals in controlled settings to help people in couple's counseling. It began to be used illicitly in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Though Ecstasy use remains rare, its use among teenagers almost doubled between 1998 and 2001 and it is the only drug which has shown a marked increase in consumption in the college population with a 69% increase between 1997 and 1999. - Maps -- Addition
In November 2000, MAPS listed Experian eMarketing on its Realtime Blackhole List. Experian sued MAPS and obtained a Temporary Restraining Order against this listing from the U.S. District Court in Colorado. Under the settlement agreement, MAPS is prohibited from listing Experian eMarketing again without first obtaining a court order. In addition, neither Experian eMarketing nor its clients will be required to employ the practice of double opt-in (process by which a consumer must reaffirm their permission before they are added to an e-mail list) demanded by MAPS in November 2000. Should MAPS breach the settlement agreement, there are substantial remedies in place and exposure to damages. - Ecstasy -- Effects
Ecstasy is a slang term for an illegal drug that has effects similar to those of hallucinogens and stimulants. Ecstasy's scientific name is "MDMA," short for 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine, a name that's nearly as long as the all-night dance club "raves" or "trances" where ecstasy is often used. That's why MDMA is called a "club drug." - Ecstasy -- Drugs
Ecstasy is a synthetic drug made in a laboratory. Makers may add anything they choose to the drug, such as caffeine, amphetamines and even cocaine. Ecstasy is illegal and has effects similar to hallucinogens and stimulants. It is addictive. The pills are of different colors and are sometimes marked with cartoon-like images. Mixing ecstasy with alcohol is extremely dangerous and can be lethal. - Patent -- Patent Reform
A self-proclaimed goal of the Patent Reform Act is to decrease patent litigation. But lawmakers have forgotten that a patent does not even give an inventor the right to practice the patented invention – only the right to exclude others from practicing it. - Ecstasy -- Tablets
Ecstasy... known as E, generally is used 100-200 milligram tablets that sell for $20 to $30 a tablet. Typically, tablets are light brown or greenish in color and bear stamped images, often of pop culture icons such as Popeye, Superman and Gorbys. Ecstasy also can be snorted, smoked or injected intravenously. - Viagra -- Erectile Dysfunction
Viagra's popularity with young adults has increased over the years.[22] It is sometimes used recreationally. Some users mix Viagra with methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA, ecstasy) in an attempt to compensate for the side effect common to many amphetamines of erectile dysfunction, a combination known as "sextasy", "rockin' and rollin'", or 'trail mix'." - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Center -- State
The number of individuals citing cocaine as their drug of choice upon entering D.C. drug rehab facilities has decreased in; 1,889 admissions in 2002, 1,378 admissions in 2003 and only 395 admissions in 2004. Cocaine is the most significant drug-related problem in the state, particularly in the form of crack. Although drug-related violent crimes have decreased in recent years, the violence associated with the distribution and abuse of crack continues to be excessive. There is so much traffic moving to and from the capital every day that there is never a shortage for criminals selling illicit drugs. 64 kilos of cocaine were confiscated in the city in 2006.
