“Parents might say, 'Oh, if
they were doing that, they’d
tell me,’ but the reality is,
they probably won’t,” Dick
said. What works is knowing
where children are, who
they are with and what they
are doing. Children with
the highest level of parental
monitoring were less likely
to start drinking or using
drugs, Dick said.
Once teens start to
drink or use drugs, the
consequences turn severe.
Recent studies show that
teens who start usinj
marijuana before they turi
17 are at higher risk o
developing schizophreni;
than people who didn’t usi
or started smoking marijuan;
later in adolescence o
young adulthood.

growing criticism from
opponents in the past few
months who cite a clause
within the site’s privacy

policy, Facebook “may share

believe the site’s creator

HOROSCOPES
ARIES You may know
everything someday, at the
rate you’re going. For now,
be happy if you can figure
out whom you should ask.
TAURUS Be wise in using
what you’re given, and
you’ll be given more. In
other words, don’t waste
it, or make an awful mess.
GEMINI There’s somebody
in your fife who always
leaves you feeling better.
Go to the extra trouble to
make sure you let that one
know how much you care.
CANCER It could seem like
the weight of the world
has setded onto your
shoulders. It hasn’t, really.
That’s just a delusional
illusion. Shrug it off.
LEO Somebody’s urging you
forward. Someone believes
you can do it. Let go of your
rather pessimistic frame
of mind. Let yourself be
convinced, even if you have
evidence to the contrary.
VIRGO More work coming
in. Luckily, it’s the kind you
like. Unluckily, the money’s
not exactly fabulous, yet.
LIBRA You’re very lucky now.
Try somethingyou’ve alw tys
wanted to do. Skydiving
is possible, but not your
only option. Do it now.
SCORPIO Do you want to
dig into your savings and
get the store-bought item,
or take the extra time to
custom build it by yourself?
It’s good, either way.
SAGITTARIUS There’s a
difference of opinion, but
logic will prevail. Be more
spiritual and persuasive
than confrontational.
The truth sells.
CAPRICORN Gather up the
goodies as fast as you can.
This moment won’t last
forever. Check your pockets
for holes, or you could lose
it as fast as you earn it.
AQUARIUS You provide
stability to a loved one who
really needs some. This is
not difficult; it is the most
natural thing in the world.
PISCES You don’t always have
to buynew. Fixup something
you’ve got stored away, and
put it back into service.
Don’t half-ass it, either.
j most researchers agree that
l marijuana doesn't necessarily
f set up the brain for further
i addictions. It does give kids

i substances and access to a

drugs are available,
i The real gateway drug
t may be nicotine, experts
say. Most kids try cigarettes
before other drugs.
Researchers compared sets
of identical twins in which
one twin started smoking
before age 17 and the other
twin smoked later. Twins
who started smoking before
age 17 became addicted
to other substances, such
as alcohol or other drugs,
more readily than their
twins who waited, Volkow
said. Because identical
twins have the same genetic
make-up, the addiction of
early-smoking twins can’t
be chalked up to genetic
susceptibility alone, she
said.

: The site has been in
the news as of late, as the
creators have put the site
up for sale for prospective
buyers in the mass media
world.
Last year, media
conglomerate News
Corporation bought out
Myspace for a reported
$580 million.
Facebook has been
approached with a price
of $750 million, but
Zuckerberg turned the deal
down.
Instead, he seeks $2 billion
for the site, almost triple
the price News Corporation
paid for Myspace.
