#VapesGiving

Now, I’d like for you to break the internet.

Sharing is caring, giving is #FundingTheFuture

The academic scandal: Stanton Glantz

This one’s VERY good. SO good, it was copy/pasted on a Canadian blog and barely noted that Carl V. Phillips wrote it.

Paint me green and hear me roar!

Do you know Skip? Skip reveals much more than her real name in this one. Must read.

Like shaming adults, this tactic doesn’t work. Imagine my surprise.

More on the “Smoke-Free” world and efforts by public health to desecrate it despite itself after an email went out to hundreds of “leaders”.

It looks like I may have found the “what we know about e-cigarettes” master draft journalists are using

That’ll shut ’em up.

Matt Myers

I do recommend following and reading everything & anything Jim McDonald writes.

Speaking of Jim McDonald:

Jester

He’s not just not human, he’s a blogging machine.

If you’re a regular reader, you’ll recognize the names in the panel.

 


Learning from our failures in smoking cessation research

Be more forceful with things that don’t work – sounds like a plan.

“Widespread access to a range of treatments (perhaps more appropriately termed “cessation aids”), offered at little to no cost and available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 12 months a year ought to be ubiquitous. We should, as Baker notes, be more forceful in bringing the treatment to the smoker.”

 


NO GATEWAY

How many times do I gotta tell ya……. there IS no GATEWAY.

E-Cigarettes Not a Path to Teen Smoking


Understanding Nicotine Strengths and Percentages

Nicotine strengths are important.

This is an excellent reference from Lee

Understanding Nicotine Strengths and Percentages


Tobacco company outsmarts tobacco control experts… again.

The tobacco control/public health sector is much more interested in taxing tobacco for its own financial gain via funding and what they call an “end-game”. The “end-game” is simply their business plan – with no thought other than their survival – not the public – to continue what seems to be their “fight” against tobacco, and to fund themselves.

On the other hand, tobacco companies are well ahead of TC and public health posturing  – they are rightfully setting themselves up for the future with innovation & expectations – brought by consumer & market demand.

Combustible tobacco will never go away, but may lose its appeal. While tobacco control experts want to control tobacco for their own purpose, tobacco companies are finding a less harmful alternative to the traditional combustible products – like ecigs & heat not burn.

“Peter Nixon, the UK chief executive of the international tobacco giant said, “We are absolutely serious – one day, we want to stop selling cigarettes.” The company has committed to bringing about a smoke-free world that it has decided to pay brand ambassadors, termed “freelancers”, to persuade people to quit smoking.”

Tobacco giant Philip Morris is paying people to help quit smoking


My memory fades at times, I do not know where or when I first came across Mr. Fojtik, but I am glad I have. He coined the phrase “Phino” some time ago.
