Hello All,
I just spent an hour on the phone with Microsoft support re: the kak worm
virus and the ugly things it has done to my hard drive. None of the
suggested "fixes"posted on the site worked for me. (BTW, I have the most
recent version of Norton Anti-Virus). As a result, I am asking that I be
removed from the listserve. As a doctoral student I can not afford to lose
or have corrupted any precious chapters, notes, or musing from the ABD world
because of a virus. Each day I turned on my computer this virus did
something slightly different. The patch that is available from the
Microsoft site supposedly prevents it from occurring again, but other
variations of the same virus are apparently out there now. I don't want to
scare anyone away from HEDIR, but I caution everyone to monitor their
computers and subscribe to a virus detection listserv to keep you posted on
what's out there and the damage it can do to your machine.
Thank you!

On Tuesday, May 2, the U.S. Senate will begin debate on reauthorizing the
Elementary and Secondary Education Act (S. 2). (
http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z?d106:s.00002: ).
Opposition groups are mounting a concerted effort to stop reauthorization.
This legislation is vital to the health and well-being of American children and
youth. I urge you to counter the opposition (attached message from Eagle
Forum) and contact your Senators in support of reauthorization of ESEA.

The Failed Education Giant is Back
Urge Senators to Oppose ESEA Reauthorization
May 1, 2000
On Tuesday, May 2, the U.S. Senate will begin debate on
reauthorizing the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (S. 2).
http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z?d106:s.00002:
ESEA, which is the largest federal law for K-12 education, has
been a failure since it was enacted in 1965, but the Senate feels
the need to continue failed education programs and throw more
money into the federal education black hole.
* Funding: Under S. 2, Title I funding for disadvantaged
students would nearly double to $15 billion.
* Goals 2000 and School-to-Work: While the time has run
out on both of these failed programs, they are continued with
the same top-down dictates, just under different names. S. 2
keeps in place the National Education Goals Panel, and
Goals 2000 is renamed "America's Goals," with no new time
limit to achieve the goals.
* Social Services in Schools: During the 1994
reauthorization of ESEA, the Clinton Administration put
counseling and health care programs in school that fail to
involve parents. These programs are continued under S. 2.
* Hate Crimes: S. 2 continues to fund projects that claim to
prevent so-called "hate crimes" by promoting homosexuality
while disparaging the religious beliefs of students and
parents.
* Gender Equity: Gender equity programs funded in S. 2 are
based on inaccurate and biased research. There programs
force teachers to divert attention from individual achievement
and to search for discrimination or problems that often do
not actually exist.
* Bad Amendments: The list of potential bad amendments is
long. Senator Jim Jeffords is expected to offer amendments
to promote School-to-Work and create a new program for
early childhood care and education. Amendments to
increase gun control, expand hate crimes, eliminate state
flexibility, and authorize funding for school construction are
also expected. Other non-germane amendments are also
possible.
* Good Amendments: Senator Shelby is expected to offer
amendments that 1) force anti-drug programs to explicitly
teach students that using drugs is wrong, and 2) prevent
student privacy invasions by third-party contractors, such as
commercial interests.

To echo Mark, David and others:
It is really very simple to call your legislators. Go to the website
listed below if you don't know your senator's phone no. Call, state
your name and location (if you wish) and simply tell them that you
urge the senator to support reauthorization of the Elementary and
Secondary Education Act. (ESEA). They will thank you and tell you
they will pass this information along. They keep tallies of these
messages.
This is a simple advocacy effort! Keep this in mind as other issue
come along.
Sincerely,
Terry Wessel

While I applaud everyone's support for contacting your congressperson
regarding educational issues, you may want to look at what is in S-2.
In this case Eagle forum opposition may not be the guarentee of a good
bill.
There are provisions in it that cause great concern to many in the
education community. I have attached below a copy of a letter sent by
45 national education and and commmunity organizations. I hope this is
helpful.
************************************************************************************* April
27, 2000
RE: ACTION ON ELEMENTARY AND SECONDARY EDUCATION ACT
Dear Senator:
We are educators, parents, policy makers, advocates and concerned
citizens from every point of view and every part of the country and we
are bound together by our common desire for a new national commitment to
help every child succeed.
Soon, the United States Senate will consider an education bill, S. 2,
that poses a clear choice on the American people's most important
concern --first class schools for all our children and student
performance as strong as any in the world. We want to share with you our
conclusion that the choice is inescapable.
Amendments to S.2 offered by Committee minority members would build on
our recent progress and move the nation further along the road of
educational improvement. Their proposals invest in proven initiatives
for upgrading the quality of teaching in all our classrooms and make
available other critical resources -- and they link funding with tough
new standards for accountability and achievement.
In contrast, the bill reported by the Senate Health, Education, Labor
and Pensions Committee would take the nation backwards by simply handing
out money to states without requiring any real accountability for
educational results.
As you know, Congress first provided extra educational assistance for
poor children because states and localities were neglecting the needs of
these children. Before the Elementary and Secondary Education Act with
Title I was enacted in 1965, not one single state had a substantial
program targeting funds to children who were economically disadvantaged.
Title I now targets such assistance to more than 11 million students
from every ethnic background in our cities, suburbs and rural
communities. Even today, GAO studies have shown, that federal funds are
4.7 times more likely to be spent on the education of economically
disadvantaged students than state or local funds.
In 1994, Congress made Title I more effective by infusing it with the
spirit of tough-minded education reform. The changes were based on the
central idea that all children can learn and that they will learn if
standards are set high, teaching and curriculum are improved, children
are assessed on what they know and can do, and schools and school
officials are held accountable for producing results. These changes
have contributed to encouraging progress in schools throughout the
nation, progress reflected in improving test scores, lower dropout rates
and more students going on to college.
Now is not the time to turn backwards. While no one is satisfied with
the pace of progress, we know we're on the right road and must keep
moving forward. This means:
Improving Instruction. We need to attract and retain good teachers and
school leaders, and help them do their best work. First, we need to
offer incentives to the ablest people to enter the profession and for
many of them to work in high-poverty schools. Second, we must provide
high-quality professional development for teachers, administrators and
other staff already in the system. And, third, we must ensure that,
within a reasonable period of time, all classrooms will have teachers
who are fully qualified to teach in their assigned fields.
Unfortunately, the Committee bill falls short. Under its various
"Straight A's", block grant and Title I portability provisions,
resources desperately needed to attract and retain good teachers and
provide for their professional development could be diverted to other
purposes, including vouchers. Nor does it provide any assurance that
high-poverty schools, which have the most urgent needs for qualified
educators, would receive their fair share of the top professionals.
Giving Poor Children a Real Opportunity to Meet Standards. The goal
here must be to accelerate the progress of students who are not meeting
standards. To meet the goal, resources must be targeted for the extra
help essential for students in poverty, students who are learning
English, and others with particular needs. Their needs, not only for
qualified teachers, but for smaller class sizes, curricular materials
geared to high standards, effective learning strategies and technologies
and safe and modern classrooms must be addressed. Care must be taken as
well to assure that the exams used really do test what students have
actually been taught and learned and that they meet professional
standards of validity and fairness.
The proposals by Committee minority members address these needs. The
Committee bill doesn't.
Accountability for Results. The 1994 law contains an unambiguous
requirement that states and school districts adopt high standards and be
held accountable for their success or failure in helping all students
do better. Federal funding has made possible the development of
effective and efficient accountability systems with clear measures of
expected student progress. Now these systems are going into effect, and
the amendments offered by Committee minority members will strengthen the
standards and ensure continued progress.
For example, parents will be able to hold schools accountable by
receiving "report cards" on how their children's schools compare to
other schools on student achievement, teacher qualifications and other
important issues. And parents will have the option to transfer their
children from failing schools to other public schools that are
performing better.
In contrast, the Committee bill, through its "Straight A's" provisions
undermines accountability by providing block grants with no guarantees
of service and waiting five years before the states are required to give
any real accounting of the results they have produced.
Not Making the Same Mistake Twice. We are dismayed that the Committee
bill and other proposals would undermine promising new initiatives which
have begun to succeed over the past five years in favor of tired old
approaches that failed in earlier decades. Throwing money at problems,
offering block grants without standards of accountability, letting state
and local government spend federal tax dollars without answering to the
taxpayers does not work. Block grants for education and other services
and federal revenue sharing are tactics that have been tried before and
abandoned by Congress.
This is a path the Senate must not take. Senators should neither
support Straight A's nor any combination of Straight A's and block
granting of dissimilar programs. However packaged, this approach will
have a drastic impact on the educational progress we are beginning to
make. The track record of block grants shows the funding will
disappear.
We respectfully ask the Senate to look at the record, to embrace and
build upon the reforms that are succeeding, to reject methods that have
failed in the past and enact a powerful ESEA with high hopes for the
futures of all our children.

To echo Mark, David and others:
It is really very simple to call your legislators. Go to the website
listed below if you don't know your senator's phone no. Call, state
your name and location (if you wish) and simply tell them that you
urge the senator to support reauthorization of the Elementary and
Secondary Education Act. (ESEA). They will thank you and tell you
they will pass this information along. They keep tallies of these
messages.
This is a simple advocacy effort! Keep this in mind as other issue
come along.
Sincerely,
Terry Wessel

Dear HEDIR Members:
The American Academy of Health Behavior recently discussed on their Listserv, the most influential literature in the field of health education and came up with the list below. The list is not considered to be exhaustive but I thought HEDIR members would like to peruse or comment on the list.
Below are the responses of several Academy members with the list of the articles that have best influenced our field. To keep the responses anonomous and to assist with the flow from one comment to another, I have taken the liberty of altering where needed . I prefer any comments are discussions be forwarded to the Listserv and not directly to me. The info could be an excellent discussion in a class or a session at one of the future Academy meetings. I heard from several persons who noted that part of the dilemna of identifying the most infuential publications was that there is a tendency include primarily philosopy and theory publications, publications that advanced or defined the profession, whereas many of the content area key papers have influenced the profession only marginally because many times they are published in specialized journals and not health education journals; however, influenced the nation as a whole. This would inlcude such content areas as alcohol, tobacco, sexuality, drug abuse, etc.
What do you think? Any comments?
Hope you find The Academy's list informatiive and interesting.

RESPONSES
One cannot think about influential landmarks in the field, without looking up the specific references (third edition bibliography in Health Promotion Planning) I would nominate the seminal pieces on institutionalization and sustainability of programs by Goodman et al., on media advocacy by Larry Wallack & Lori Dorfman, on youth interventions combining school and media by Brian Flynn et al., on ecological approaches by Ken McLeroy et al., on the comprehensive school health model by Kolbe and Allensworth, on diffusion and implementation by Chuck Basch, on the health belief model by Marshall Becker, on worksite health promotion with the impressive series of studies at DuPont by Bob Bertera et al., on the life skills model by Botvin et al., on empowerment in African-American communities by Ron Braithwaite, on community coalitions by Fran Butterfoss et al., on asthma education by Noreen Clark, on cancer screening in rural poor populations by Mark Dignan
et al., on community competence by Ginny Eng, on tobacco control by Michael Eriksen, and of course Glover's work on smokeless tobacco and more recently on smoking cessation.
It would be difficult, again, to pick single articles, but the work of the Stanford and Minnesota heart health projects have been enormously influential (Farquhar, Fortman, Flora et al., Blackburn, Perry, Carlaw, Mittlemark, et al.). Barbara Isreal's more recent work on participatory research looks like it will be influential, but that remains to be seen, and the same must be said of Neena Wallerstein's work on community development, Marshall Kreuter's on social capital, Matthew Kreuter's on tailoring, but these stand out as some of the new cutting edges.
One quasi-objective measure of this would be the citation counts on health education publications. James Price at University of Toledo has done a couple of analyses along these lines, published variously in Journal of School Health and the Eta Sigma Gamma monograph series. The refs I have are:
"Most Frequently Cited Articles in Health Education, 1969-1977" (See Journal of School Health, 50:408-410, 1980). Most cited authors and articles in health education journals, 1970-1979 (See J. School Health, December 1982 and Eta Sigma Gamman, 1982).
Three of Green's references have been cited as the first, second and 7th most frequently cited during that era (recognizing that these would now be in
competition with more recent publications):
Green, L.W. Should health education abandon attitude-change strategies:
Perspectives from recent research. Health Educ. Monogr. 1:24-48, 1970.

1969-1977." See J. School Health September:408-410, 1980.] Reprinted in

published applications of the PRECEDE model since 1974, see
http://ihpr.ubc.ca/precede.]
Might be good to do a citation count on more recent publications, but one way to look at the question of influence on the field is to factor in the time the papers have had to have an impact, setting the cutoff date back by at least five or ten years. However, Green's best work without regard to citation counts, may well be the federal government on the first round of the Healthy People initiative in the late 70s and early 1980s. These articles took the Precede-Proceed concepts to scale and applied them in national policy and in the formulation of internationally adopted definitions of health promotion, preserving a central role for health education within the policies embracing health promotion.

I don't think research has had much impact on the health promotion field. However, the articles that seem important to me appear below. They obviously reflect my narrow focus on substance abuse. They are not authored by health educators.

While I do not have specific references at hand, I do know that I have been very influenced by the Framingham studies, the Orange county (CA) studies, Marc Lelonde's health field analysios (1974, Canadian Ministry of Health), and Benjamin Paul's anthology of cross-cultural research. Also, some of Dorothy Nyswander's writings in the early Health Education Monographs. Many of my colleagues find the fairly recent compensium of research by Glanz, Rimer and (name escapes me) valuable.

In St. Louis, we are being bombarded by radio ads for Body Solutions and
Body Shaper (the same item, just different names). They are being
promoted as ways to loose weight while you sleep. The kicker is that we
had an MD promoting this on his talk show. The product is out of Texas,
was developed by a chiorpactor(who has lost his license to practice in
Texas).
I have not found any good resources on the websites for Tufts University,
the AMA, or the ADA to counter these claims. Any other comments or
thoughts?

I got this request from an individual based on a hedir message of April 28.
If anybody can help it would greatly appreciated. The HEDIR archives did
not include an email address:
=======
I'm sorry to bother you with this, but I'm not sure where to send a reply to
the message sent by Roger Weissberg via HEDIR on 4/28. His message was an
invitation to join the listserv CASEL: "To be added to the list, please
reply to this e-mail requesting to be subscribed."
========
Unfortunately, the Weissberg email did not include the email one would need
to subscribe. Any help? Thanks.

Please check with your local chapter of the American
Red Cross to see if you can order African-American
HIV/AIDS products and the Hispanic program products.
I know that both programs have t-shirts and there may
be other items such as pins. Also, we have a
beautiful set of African proverb posters, suitable for
framing.
Please contact me if you have any problems ordering
these tiems from your chapter.
In good health,

HEDIR Folks:
For a new course that I will be teaching at the undergraduate level in the
fall of 2000 entitled "Disease and Injury: Identification, Control and
Prevention", I want the students to read a non-fiction book in one of the
two areas. I currently have a strong selection of books on disease but
have very few on injuries. If you can be of any assistance, I would
appreciate your reading suggestions on appropriate non-fiction books with a
focus on injuries.
Thank you for your assistance in advance. john

Guide to Help Prevent School Violence
The Department of Education has just issued a NEW guide recommending how
communities can develop violence prevention plans. The 62-page booklet,
"Safeguarding Our Children: An Action Guide," is based on the premise
that a key element in any such plan is *teamwork* among educators,
mental health professionals, parents, students, & community groups &
organizations. The guide is a follow-up to the 1998 publication, "Early
Warning, Timely Response: A Guide to Safe Schools."
Both guides are available at the following website:

Nothing I can find indicates this is hoax. HOWEVER, unlike the kak.worm
virus, this is an attachment that you must open. It will do NOTHING unless
you open it. Thanks Charlotte.

We just got hit with this virus at the University of Toledo this morning. If
opened, it appears to e-mail everyone in the address book with the infected
file. Universities that have networked faculty address books will also get
tied up mailing out hundreds of infected e-mails (as is happening here).
It's a mess.

Greetings from your co-coordinators of the 2000 ACHA Resource Room! The
Resource Room is your site to share and gather good stuff and ideas with
colleagues who have experienced using these items and strategies on campus.
If you are interested in putting items in the Resource Room, you need to
know the following:
1) What to Bring. You name it! Newsletters, posters, fliers, brochures,
pamphlets, handouts, bookmarks, keychains, cups, buttons, frisbees, safer
sex or cold care kits, newspaper inserts, etc., for people to take. You may
also wish to bring t-shirts, videos, CD-ROMs photo albums and program
manuals to display.
2) Security. The Resource Room is also going to be a place where people can
hang out and network and such, so people will be wandering through. The room
may not always be staffed, in fact, it will probably be unstaffed
a lot. So don't bring anything so valuable or one of a kind that it will
break your heart and ruin your life if it walks away. (Unfortunately, this
sometimes happens, even to materials marked "For Display Only".) You may
also want to be there in person during times you want to demo or display
something particularly precious, like a computer program (BYOL- Bring Your
Own Laptop.)
3) Quantity. Don't be shy about bringing a big stack of whatever you're most
proud of. The more innovative and timely your materials are, the more they
will be in demand. This is not to discourage folks from bringing "less sexy"
stuff. Tried and True is good.
4) Check back often! Conference attendees don't all show up on day 1, so
keep checking back at the Resource Room for new additions, as well as copies
of leftover program handouts.
5) Getting Your Materials There. You are, of course, free to haul all your
goodies with you in your checked or carry-on luggage. You may also ship your
materials to the ACHA office NO LATER THAN May 17; or you may ship them to
the hotel, with "ACHA Resource Room" on the label. If you ship to the
hotel, you can send out anytime up till May 22nd. If it's any later, you're
better off carrying it yourself.
Please clearly label materials "For ACHA Resource Room"

morning news reports estimate that 90% of business systems have been
impacted. the following is from the univ. of arkansas:
Our campus has indeed been struck by the VBS/LoveLetter VBScript worm.
RISK ASSESMENT: This worm is a relatively high risk. Requires Outlook
or
mIRC for spread, but execution can cause problems in any system. Will
delete and destroy numerous files on affected systems.
When the VBScript attachment is executed, it will (1) Copy itself and 2
other files to the WINDOWS\SYSTEM and WINDOWS directories; (2) Adds
itself
to the registry so that it will be executed when the system is
restarted;
(3) Replaces the Internet Explorer home page with a link to an
executable
program -- which, if executed, is also added to the registry so that it
is
ran at every system restart; (4) creates an HTM file to send to every
user
in channels in mIRC; (5) Uses Outlook to mass mail itself to all entries
in the address book (creates a registry entry so mass mail happens only
once); (6) Overwrites file on local and remote drives with names *.VBS
or
.VBE with its own code; (7) Renames files with .JS, .JSE, .CSS, .WSH,
.SCT and .HTA to *.VBS (and removes original file); (8) Renames .JPG,
.JPEG, .MP3 or .MP2 files to *.VBS (ex. pic.jpg will be deleted and a
new
file named pic.jpg.vbs will be created).
The Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT) web site indicates that
their
first reports of this infection are today. Here's the information
from their site
(http://www.cert.org/current/current_activity.html#loveletter):
Reports indicate that the worm is distributed via e-mail with the
following characteristics:
Subject: ILOVEYOU
The body of the message contains:
kindly check the attached LOVELETTER coming from me
A file attachment is included, named:
LOVE-LETTER-FOR-YOU.TXT.vbs

May 5, 2000
Friends and Fellows,
It’s Cinco de Mayo! My students tell me that it’s a very special
day-the one where the bars sell tacos three for a buck and tequila
drinks half price. ‘Nuff said on that.
Yesterday I watched a remembrance special on the May 4, 1970 Kent State
shootings. It’s odd and incongruent now to imagine that our own
National Guard once fired live rounds into a crowd of student
protesters. That historic event is as foreign to my 20-something
students as the Mexican Revolution.
The day before yesterday I watched a special that reviewed the now
classic photo of a Chinese student protester standing in front of a row
of tanks in Tiananmen Square in July of 1989. The day before that I
watched a clip that featured a crowd of German college kids chipping
away with a hammer at the Berlin Wall just a decade ago. Funny, but the
fact that the Berlin Wall video preceded the others is something of a
symbolic "telling" in itself: The chipping away of walls to reveal
truths and freedom. Tink, tink, tink, …..
Walls of truth never tumble at once but succumb to time and little
hammers one chip at a time. Tink, tink, tink….
Pondering the metaphors further I’ve been questioning the relative
roles of the players-the universities, the students, the guardsmen, the
walls, the hammers and the tanks. I now wonder if I am a student or
wall, a hammer or a tank, a professor or a guardsman.
Today’s quote:
"The university is not engaged in making ideas safe for students. It is
engaged in making the students safe for ideas." Clark Kerr
Still swinging my hammer,
Andy J :{)

Hello colleagues,
Dateline (NBC) will have a segment focusing on abuse of nitrous oxide on
Wednesday May 10. This is a followup to last week's Dateline segment on
club drugs. After that initial segment, the show received thousands of
responses related to nitrous oxide (by phone and via website), so they
are preparing next week's segment in reponse to that interest.
Nitrous abuse is a serious issue. According to the 1998 National
Household Survey on Drug Abuse, nitrous oxide and/or whippets were
abused by more than 6 million people in 1998:
348,000 young people ages 12-17
2,205,000 young adults ages 18-25
1,511,000 persons ages 26-34
2,061,000 persons ages 35+
For more information on inhalant abuse, see the National Inhalant
Prevention Coalition website: www.inhalants.org

Hello,
I was wondering if anyone could suggest a text that would be appropriate
for undergraduates in planning health interventions. This course is in
sequence to an evaluation course, therefore the text could also include
some evaluation.
Thanks for your help!!

HEDIR folks:
I have some grant money to spend on health risk appraisal software.
Does anyone have experience in using this for college-level courses
(other than the CDs that accompany textboks)? Any suggestions would be
most appreciated. Thanks.
