Electronic Cigarette Beats Smoking Ban

A handful of companies are beating the smoking ban by offering smokers an electronic way to legally get their nicotine fix while indoors. is a smokeless, sleek black tube with a rechargeable battery and a nicotine cartridge.
And unlike a normal Davidoff cigarettes, the tube releases a cloud of water vapor in the atmosphere, making it legal to smoke indoors.
"I buy cigarettesusually, so this is right up my alley," said smoker Monique Ownes, who said she now prefers smoking electronically.
However, smoker Jacob Asbill said he wasn’t too impressed by the new device. "Looks like a pen actually," Asbill said. "If it looks more like a cigarette and if it tasted more like a cigarette."
The American Lung Association says that even without the smoke, nicotine has its own dangers, and is linked to cardiac disease and high blood pressure. Even though the state says the E-Cigarette is exempt from the smoking ban, it’s still up tocigarettes individual businesses to decide whether smokers can use it indoors.

Alcohol, cigarettes and drugs cost Australia $56b a year

TOBACCO, alcohol and illicit drugs cost Australia $56 billion a year.
A study has revealed the social and economic toll of drug-linked illness, premature deaths, lost productivity, crime and accidents. It found drug-related burden has jumped more that $20 billion since 1998-99, when a similar study put the figure at $34.5 billion. The latest findings, to be released today by Health Minister Nicola Roxon, put the lost productivity associated with tobacco at $16 billion. cigarettes
Ms Roxon said the huge costs involved reinforced the need for drastic preventative measures. "What sets this Government apart from our predecessors is recognition that the rise of preventable chronic disease also poses a frontline economic challenge," she said. "Poor health adversely affects workforce participation and productivity - something we can’t afford at a time of a skills shortage."
The Government-commissioned research, by professors David Collins and Helen Lapsley, showed the social and economic cost of alcohol was $15.3 billion in 2004-05. cigarettes cost $31.5 billion, or 56 per cent of all drug-related costs.
The social and financial costs associated with illicit drugs were estimated more than $8 billion. The Productivity Commission recently called for 20 per cent of the health budget to be spent on preventative health measures.
But just 2-5 per cent of health spending goes towards prevention. VicHealth director Todd Harper said there was a great opportunity now to boost preventative health programs. "We need an approach that recognises good health care and prevention have benefits way beyond the savings in the healthcare system," Mr Harper said.
"We know that one of the most effective investments in tobacco (control) alone has been national social marketing campaign, which has been shown not only to be effective, but also to save money. "We would be spending less than $10 million a year on those ads and yet they are one of the most effective strategies we have available."
cigarettes, alcohol abuse and obesity will be the top three priorities in the Rudd Government’s preventative health strategy. The Government has also promised to commission a special economic report by the Treasury, outlining the benefits of preventative health measures.

Suit on Light Cigarettes Is Thrown Out

In a legal victory for the tobacco industry, a federal appeals court on Thursday threw out an $800 billion class-action lawsuit on behalf of smokers who said they were misled that light cigarettes werecigarettes safer than regular ones.
Plaintiffs’ lawyers had wanted to represent potentially millions of people across the country who had smoked light cigarettes, but the court found that it was impossible to tell why smokers chose light cigarettes, so the group could not be treated as a class. Instead, smokers will have to sue individually.
“Individualized proof is needed to overcome the possibility that a member of the purported class purchased lights for some other reason than the belief that lights were a healthier alternative,” the ruling said.
The unanimous ruling by a three-judge panel of the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit means that individuals can still pursue lawsuits against cigarette makers, but they cannot be grouped together as a class.
Stocks of big tobacco companies were little changed by news of the ruling, which was not entirely unexpected. Shares of the Altria Group, which owns Philip Morris USA, maker of Marlboro cigarettes, were up 2 cents, to $22.06, in mid-afternoon trading Thursday in New York. Stock in Reynolds American, whose R. J. Reynolds Tobacco unit markets the Camel brand, were up 14 cents, to $59.85.

Liggett plans cigarette fire safety compliance

Liggett Group will convert all of its domestic cigarettes production standards to meet all state fire safety standards by January of next year, the company has announced.
The Mebane-based cigarette maker said in an announcement that the move is "consistent with cigarettes fire safety standards enacted by a growing number of states." The company will continue to meet all deadlines for fire safety standards in individual states that become effective before January, the company added.
CEO Ronald Bernstein said the company will make changes both to its cigarette paper and to its production methods to meet all the guidelines required in different states, while continuing to produce what he called "best-in-class" cigarettes.
"Converting our production to make all of our cigarette brands fire-standards-compliant nationwide consistent with that commitment," Bernstein said.

Cigarettes to be sold under shop counters

Cigarettes are to be forced beneath shop counters with supermarkets and cornershops banned from displaying tobacco products, The Times has learnt .

The latest assault on smokers will also see the disappearance of vending machines from pubs and restaurants in an attempt to further limit children’s access to tobacco.

Both measures are to be included in a consultation to be launched later this spring. Legislation, if needed, could be introduced this autumn.

Dawn Primarolo, the Minister for Public Health, last night signalled she was ready to take on retailers to implement changes that she claimed would save hundreds of lives. “It’s vital we get across the message to children that smoking is bad. If that means stripping out vending machines or removing cigarettes from behind the counter, I’m willing to do that,” she said.

“Children who smoke are putting their lives at risk and are more likely to die of cancer than people who start smoking later.”

When the ban on displaying tobacco products is implemented England will join just a handful of others to have taken the step. Ontario, Canada, has passed legislation forcing cigarettes under the counter which comes into effect this May. Two administrations in Australia - Tasmania and the Australian Capital Territory - are also taking steps to keep tobacco out of sight.

The consultation process, due to begin in late May, will set out the range of options under consideration. Ministers are obliged to detail how much the measures are likely to cost businesses and will be expected to show what benefits banning cigarette displays and vending machines will bring. Interest groups will have one to three months to register objections.

The consultation is also expected to include measures that make it easier to sell nicotine replacement gums and patches.

The most recently available statistics show that 22 per cent of adults smoke, a 2 per cent drop since before the smoking ban was introduced last July. The Government has set a target of reducing the figure to 21 per cent by 2010.

Retailers made clear last night that removing cigarettes from sight could carry heavy costs, forcing many convenience stores to carry out refits costing thousands of pounds.

The Association of Convenience Stores said it would challenge the Government to prove that removing cigarettes from display would have any effect. The body’s chief executive, James Lowman, said that the change would carry “major operational and equipment costs”. “We would expect the Government to present a clear case that these measures were necessary before placing yet another significant burden on thousands of retailers across the country,” he said.

A spokesman for the British Retail Consortium said that, while tobacco represented a “very small” part of overall sales in a typical supermarket, banning all tobacco products from sight could be impractical. “Any further regulations should be balanced against the practical implications for serving customers who want to buy these products.”

Action on the display of tobacco products at the point of sale was first raised in a draft copy of the Cancer Reform Strategy last December.

Ministers have grown increasingly bullish over antismoking measures since tobacco advertising was banned in the press and on billboards in February 2003. The successful introduction of the smoking ban last July was followed by the increase of the minimum age of sale from 16 to 18 which came into force last October. From this autumn new explicit picture warnings on tobacco products will be required in addition to written cautions.
