Abstract:
Objective: In the current climate of growing concern for the harmful effects of cigarette smoking and passive smoking, the high prevalence of this activity within psychiatric settings can no longer be ignored. This paper reviews the findings of research in a public stand-alone psychiatric facility in South Australia where significant legal and occupational health, safety and welfare (OHSW) concerns were apparent for both patients and staff as a consequence of the strong culture of smoking in that setting. The aim of this paper is to raise awareness of this significant health and legal issue and to inform policy and practice change. Method: This paper reviews legal issues associated with smoking in psychiatric settings and presents relevant findings from previous studies in which in-depth interviews and observations in community and inpatient psychiatric settings were conducted. Results: Significant legal and OHSW concerns were apparent for both patients and staff in all settings. The potential for future litigation was high. Conclusions: There are a number of legal and OHSW implications of continued smoking by staff and patients within mental health settings. Several administrative, clinical and cultural practices need to change within this system of care in order to improve overall patient wellbeing and to avoid the potential for litigation by patients and staff.

Abstract:
In this of the International Journal of Critical Indigenous Studies, the articles reveal how competing economies of knowledge, capital and values are operationalised through colonising power within inter-subjective relations. Writing in the Australian context, Greg Blyton demonstrates how tobacco was used by colonists as a means of control and exchange in their relations with Indigenous people. He focuses on the Hunter region of New South Wales, Australia, in the early to mid-nineteenth century to reveal how colonists exchanged tobacco for food, safe passage and Indigenous services. Blyton suggests that these colonial practices enabled tobacco addiction to spread throughout the region, passing from one generation of Indigenous people to another. He asks us to consider the link between the colonial generation of Indigenous tobacco consumption and addiction, and Indigenous mortality rates today whereby twenty percent of deaths are attributed to smoking.

Abstract:
Tobacco smoking is the largest preventable cause of death and disease in Australia, and the major cause of drug death. Under a third of adults smoke, male rates having declined significantly following the Second World War. The publication of international reports during the 1960s causally linking tobacco with death and disease stimulated action by Australian health professionals, although governments remained unresponsive. In the 1970s, advertising bans in the broadcast media were introduced, but quickly circumvented by the tobacco companies through sport sponsorships. However, the 1980s brought increased public awareness about health issues, and legislation concerning advertising restrictions and other aspects of tobacco control. Importantly, unequivocal evidence about the effects of passive smoking also become available in this decade, signalling a battle between public health interests and the tobacco industry, which the industry can now be said to have lost. Although consumption and disease rates are falling, priority areas for action still remain.

Abstract:
The paper reviews the goals of stormwater management adopted in Adelaide and declares a focus on harvesting of stormwater to replace mains water in irrigating areas landscaped with grass, flower beds and shrubs. Four categories of catchments are recognised according to their levels of pollution production - roof runoff and “low”, “medium” and “high” pollution runoff surfaces. Four case study examples of systems involving appropriate treatment trains are described, each one delivering harvested stormwater suitable for irrigation. Two examples are given of large roof areas draining to gravel-filled trenches providing “passive” irrigation to grassed surfaces and two examples of runoff from ground-level surfaces supplying cleansed recharge to small aquifer storage/recovery schemes.

Abstract:

Tobacco smoking remains one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Despite all the efforts made by governments, researchers and communities to educate women about the dangerous effects of tobacco smoke and nicotine, smoking during pregnancy continues to be a common habit and accounts for a significant percentage of fetal morbidity and mortality. The offspring is, as a result, exposed to nicotine through the blood and the milk of the mother. Nicotine is therefore expected to interact with the developing fetus and the offspring of mothers who smoke or use Nicotine Replacement therapy for smoking cessation, resulting in the interference with normal fetal lung development. Maternal cigarette smoke or nicotine exposure produces adverse effects in the lungs of offspring, these include
intrauterine growth retardation, low birth weight, premature birth, reduced pulmonary function at birth, and a high occurrence of respiratory illnesses after birth. The main objectives of this study were to determine: 1) the effects of maternal nicotine exposure during gestation and lactation on lung development in the offspring, 2) if there is evidence of premature aging of the lungs of the lungs of the nicotine exposed offspring, and 3) whether tomato juice can have protective effects on the fetal lung development and function in the offspring. From the study, it was established that maternal nicotine exposure had no significant effect on the growth parameters of the offspring. However, it results in the late onset of gradual parenchymal damage which resembles premature aging. The study also found that the consumption of tomato juice may have protective effects on the premature aging of the lungs of the offspring.

Full text
Abstract:
In this project apatite fission track and (U-T)/He thermochronometers are used to determine the cooling history of rocks from the coastal (south eastern New South Wales) and the interior (Bathurst area) regions of the eastern Australia high elevation passive margin. Two traverses across the coastal lowlands, escarpment and plateau top are used to determine the tempo and styles of response of the landscape to the continental breakup and sea-floor spreading of the Tasman Sea (85 Ma). The three prevailing models of escarpment evolution namely retreat into a downwarped rift shoulder, escarpment retreat and excavation in place on a high elevation rift shoulder with flexural rebound are described and tested using a previously untested combination of apatite fission track and (U/Th)/He data. The thermochronological data indicate that the coast was affected by a denudational pulse that peaked around 120-100 Ma and that was extinguished by the time of sea-floor spreading. The rapid denudational event caused the removal of 3-4.5 km (depending on the geothermal gradient) of crust at the coast and of approximately 2 km at the present base of the escarpment. The thermochronological data are inconsistent with the downwarped rift shoulder model and the apatite (U-Th)/He data indicate that, while the coast was denuded very rapidly, the coastal lowlands were excavated in place at a much lower pace, and the escarpment reached its present position no later than 60 Ma. This suggests that during continental extension and breakup, rates of denudation at the coast were approximately 80-30m/Myr (depending on the geothermal gradient), whereas at the base of the present escarpment they were about 10-5 m/Myr. The period after sea-floor spreading was characterised by stability and low rates of erosion. The pre-breakup topography, reconstructed using the backstacking technique, is characterised by a considerable relief in the area of the present escarpment. This result confirms the hypothesis that the escarpment evolved pinned to its present position.

Abstract:
The Health Belief Model developed by Becker ( 1984) cited in Katzenellenbogen et al. ( 1999) guided this study. The model attempts to identify beliefs and the way they may interact to influence individuals' conscious decisions to undertake certain healthrelated actions. "The most important health beliefs that influence actions are thought to be: • The person's perceived vulnerability to a particular condition or illness, • The person' s perceptions of the severity or effects of the condition or illness, • The Person's perception of the efficacy, costs, and benefits of any proposed actions" (Katzenellenbogen, joubert & Karim, 1999: 169). The three points mentioned above guided systematically the whole study as follows: 1. The students' perceived vulnerability to a particular cond ition or illness in this case guided the researcher to describe and to understand students' personal perceptions of the risk of diseases they run by smoking or that they can cause to other people in their surroundings. It was also necessary to find out whether or not non-smokers were aware of the consequences in terms of diseases of being permanently exposed to tobacco smoke. 2. Once smokers as well as non-smokers have agreed that smoking increases the risk of diseases, the following step was to ensure whether or not they continue to neglect and run the same risk. because smoking consequences occur only after a long period of time. 3. The last step was to ensure that students who smoked could actually accept and put into practices some available strategies for giving up smoking. after being sensitised or on their own initiative, in order to remain in good health.

Abstract:
In recent years we have seen a veritable ‘explosion’ in the use of the sea for a growing variety of marine leisure activities. This is now a truly global phenomenon that can be seen from Iceland to South Africa, Australia to Florida. Activities in the sea have always been part of coastal tourism, from paddling and swimming to sailing and diving to angling and boat trips. However, in the past decade or two we have seen the invention of new activities and the developments of variations on traditional marine activities. We now have coasteering, wild swimming, paddle-boarding, RIB and banana boats and sea kayaking, all giving tourists further opportunities to get pleasure from the marine environment. Many of these activities also reflect a change in marine leisure with an increase in active rather than passive activities and an increase in adventure activities. This has, inevitably, increased the risk level of sea-based leisure activities in some ways. Several of the more adventurous new activities also involve travelling further from land or to less developed areas of coast, increasing the risk further. Interestingly, it appears that many tourists become ‘hooked’ on some sea-based leisure activities once they have experienced them on vacation. From that point onwards their desire to continue to participate in an activity will often influence their choice of vacation destination. The innovative developments we have seen in terms of sea-based leisure activities have led to a huge increase in participation in marine leisure activities. This has been stimulated by, and reflected in, the investment made in equipment and infrastructure for such activities by governments, commercial operators, and hotels and resorts.
