In the news:
Define Addiction… Two decades of advancements in neuroscience convinced American Society of Addiction Medicine (ASAM) to change definition of addiction. Formerly considered a behavior issue, it is now defined as brain disorder. "Many behaviors driven by addiction are real problems and sometimes criminal acts. But the disease is about brains, not drugs. It's about underlying neurology, not outward actions." The report suggests that addicts may not have a choice over their behaviors, but choice does play a role in getting help.



More News:
Since Trump claimed a “rigged” presidential election during the 3rd debate with Clinton, the Russian media revealed on Tuesday that Russia has sought to send monitors to the US polling stations on November 8th. In response, the US State Department has called it a “PR Stunt”, and rejected the offer. However, it is interesting to note that the United States often sends monitors to observe elections in other countries with a history of voter fraud and that U.S. officials participated in a similar observation mission for Russia's parliamentary elections in September.
