The aim is to examine the variation in the content of ecstasy tablets seized in the northwest of England during 2001 and to compare it to the UK average from 1991 to 2001. All tablets submitted to the Forensic Science Service in the northwest of England during 2001 were analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography with diode array detection (HPLC-DAD).

This article was written by the Chief of Police for Detroit talking about the strategy on the drug war. He basically talks about the drug problem in Detroit and the strategy is to stop it.

He wants to have the department and the city to rethink the strategy of controlling the drug use in the city of Detroit.
