What does Tom Verducci think about doping?


The American sportswriter Tom Verducci says about debates related to rughts of steroid users to be chosen for the Baseball Hall of Fame. But as it commonly happens, this explanation manifests only confusion of writers about steroids.
The Baseball Writers Association of America (BWAA)  is a professional association of baseball journalists that chose players for the National Baseball Hall of Fame. All sportswriters who are members of the BWAA already not less than 10 years have opportunity to elect up to 10 players for the Hall of Fame.
Recently a debate took place between members of the BWAA. They discussed whether admitted or only suspected consumers of steroids and other prohibited medications might entry into Cooperstown.
Members of the BWAA usually should comment their votes:  they have to explain why they have voted pro or contra certain issues. Some of them confirm that doping destructs the integrity of sports and intake of prohibited products is frequently considered by them to be immoral.
As for Verducci, he doesn’t think that usage of steroids is necessarily a moral question. This sportswriter assures that steroids help consumers to take unfair advantage over those who don’t administrate prohibited medications. According to this sportswriter, performance-enhancing drugs make competitions unfair. Thus, administration of banned medications promotes unfairness in sports.  That’s why Verducci denies any connection between doping and morality. This sportswriter confirms that it is a question that is connected with performance but not to morality. So, Tom Verducci suggests that consumers of steroids should not be allowed to be in the Hall of Fame. But he has voted for Jeff Bagwell, an admitted steroid user. This sportsperson has acknowledged that he had taken androstenedione. It is necessary to mention that this medicine was not enumerated among anabolic steroids, when Bagwell administrated it. According to the Control Act 2004, it is enumerated among banned drugs. Since it wasn’t legally clamed to be a steroid, Tom Verducci decided to vote for the user of this medicine; however, it was always claimed to be an anabolic-androgenic steroid by scientists. Furthermore, it was said that Bagwell just became bigger but didn’t induce his performance due to administration of androstenedione.
Nevertheless, the decision of Tom Verducci to vote for the admitted consumer of the steroid is quite controversial. The following question appears: “Maybe Tom Verducci is not against usage of steroids and other performance-enhancing drugs by athletes?”  Since Tom Verducci doesn’t believe that doping is a moral question, he may suppose that enhancement of performance is not a real problem.
Many persons suggest that administration of steroids represents evil because they are illegal.

Steroids have nothing to do with millions cases of domestic violence


Johnnie Lee Wiggins is a NPC heavyweight bodybuilder. This person was enough successful. He took the third  place at the 2011 NPC Emerald Cup and won the 2011 NPC Empire Classic.
This person was a boyfriend of Prudence Hockley. She taught English at Woodinville High School in Washington. This woman met the bodybuilder in a gym. He was a personal coach at that time.
 Once the bodybuilder saw another man’s car in the yard of her home. It was on Christmas day. This bodybuilder was a jealous individual. Johnnie Lee Wiggins beat the teacher too brutally.  Then Johnnie Lee Wiggins left her unconscious and bleeding on the ground in the yard. She was taken in a medical centre where she died that day.  The child of Prudence Hockley was at home and called police and hospital.
It was not the first time, when Johnnie Lee Wiggins was aggressive with a lady. Some ladies reported that he was very jealous person. They also claimed that he became aggressive many times.
Earlier this bodybuilder served over 5 years in jail for assault, robbery and theft. It was in Georgia. Johnnie Lee Wiggins was released in 2008. During May 2011 he was under supervision of the Washington Department of Corrections.
It is necessary to notice that this bodybuilder was released on probation. During this time a police official caught him possessing anabolic steroids; he attacked the officer. The Washington Department of Corrections sent him to Georgia but he didn’t tell the Georgia Department of corrections that he had returned.
It was said that this bodybuilder had had “roid rage”. In fact, this term is widely applied by media that claims that it is an undesirable effect of anabolic steroids. But it is important to know that the affirmation about uncontrolled aggressiveness which is believed to be caused by administration of anabolic steroids is not proven scientifically. Only a significantly small number of steroid users suffer from this effect. Intake of steroids doesn’t lead to violence against ladies.  Millions cases of domestic violence happen each year but they have nothing to do with anabolic steroids.
There are other factors that lead to domestic violence. Anabolic steroids should not be blamed for uncontrolled behavior and assaults. Media must find other conditions to demonize for tragedies.

The UFC and their steroid program


Dana White, the president of Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) put efforts to defend the anti-doping policy of this organization. According to the UFC, their most advanced drug-testing program is in North America. Is it really true? Sometimes it seems that only fool fighters are caught administrating prohibited medicines by the UFC.
There are certain organizations that criticize the anti-doping program of the UFC harshly. The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA), the United States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) and the Canadian Centre for Ethics in Sport (CCES) belong to main organizations that criticize drug-testing program of the UFC. But which is the reason? Undoubtedly, they struggle for own interests. They put efforts to manage testing for forbidden medications in all professional as well as amateur sport leagues in the whole world. It is not a secret that steroid testing has become a profitable business.  Since they haven’t tested fighters for prohibited drugs, they have lost a lot of money.
But there are also some actual problems connected with the UFC drug-testing program which should be taken in consideration. Travis Tygart, the CEO of the WADA, claims that steroid testing of the UFC isn’t proper. Undoubtedly, the WADA possesses the best anti-doping protocol. The UFC anti-doping policy can’t be even compared with that of the UFC. The CEO of the WADA notices that the UFC put efforts to look better than they are actually. Travis Tygart claims that it is quite ironically that the UFC defends own drug-testing policy and doesn’t want to have the same or just similar principles as the WADA has.
Major League Baseball did a huge mistake, confirming that steroids represent a great problem in this sport. Thus, it was hurt good public impression about baseball.  As for the National Football League, it was created perception that their anti-doping policy has been very effective.
A question appears: Does Dana White have ability to show that there is no steroid problem in the UFC?

A new steroid program in surfing


Anabolic steroids are used by surfers too. Sport governing body claims that controlled drugs are an essential problem in this sport. That’s why the Association of Surfing Professionals made a decision to introduce testing for anabolic steroids and other banned preparations that are applied for performance-enhancing effects.
The Association of Surfing Professionals led some discussions with the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA). They asked how they could introduce testing for banned medicines into surfing. Since anti-doping program of the WADA is claimed to be the best policy, the surfing organization desires to use this protocol. Of course, this is the next victory of the WADA that induces the opportunity to control anti-doping programs in sports.
It is known that surfing is a competitive sport. So, strength, speed and endurance are principal abilities that induce winning. So, surfers could believe that administration of anabolic steroids and other performance-enhancing drugs influences on success greatly. It is also important to take in consideration that amount of money which is got by winners is large. Winners get no less than 100, 000 dollars. Desire to receive money could lead surfers to decision to take anabolic steroids.
Nevertheless, it is said that intake of anabolic steroids and other preparations that enhance performance is not widespread in surfing. Many persons believe that application of recreational drugs is more widespread among surfers than usage of steroids. Sport of 1970s and 1980s was oftan associated with marijuana and lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD). Current facts support this impression. The number of surfers who are caught administrating marijuana, methamphetamine and cocaine is quite enhanced.
The professional surfer Andi Irons died in November 2010. A heart attack that he had was caused by drug abuse. It was defined that steroids hadn’t been involved in this fatal case. Traces of methamphetamine, cocaine and methadone metabolites were found in his body.
Another surfer, Peter Davi, died in December 2007. Enhanced levels of meth were also found in his system.
As for the professional surfer Anthony Ruffo, he was caught distributing meth.
Only Neco Padaratz, a professional surfer from Brazil, was caught taking steroids. He was banned for one year. This person tested positive for prohibited products in 2004. This surfer confirmed that he had taken these drugs to get a complete recovery from back injuries. In spite of his defense, he was sentenced to a ban. He was the first person who was caught using steroids by the Association of Surfing Professionals. According to certain sources, he remains to be the only surfer who has ever been caught by the ASP.
The ASP has already the initial budget to introduce the WADA steroid program into surfing.
While it is unlikely that steroids represent a problem in surfing, the new anti-doping program can create a wrong public impression.

A unusual method of steroid investigation led in Michigan


The former officer of Paw Paw  Department Robert Kusmack was caught possessing Fluoxymesterone (Halotestin) due to a Michigan steroid investigation. The targets of the investigation were personnel of law enforcement and an owner of a gym. As a result, Robert Kusmack received probation of one year and was sentenced to pay certain fine. Thus, this police officer was fired in 2010.
Investigations related to steroids are conducted usually in the following way: consumers of steroids are used in order to catch steroid dealers. But sometimes authorities apply another method to conduct investigations.
 United States Mail Inspection Service had found a package which contained 50 vials of HGH and was addressed to the distributor of steroids Tom Radke. The West Michigan Enforcement Team (WMET) and the Kalamazoo Valley Enforcement Team (KVET) began to lead the investigation which resulted in detection of the steroid dealer.
But the authorities decided not to prosecute the dealer but to use him as an informant. It was made a decision to catch police officials that use steroids with the help of the steroid dealer. An owner of a local gym was implicated in this process too.
Tom Radke acted as an undercover informant in this investigation. He sold Fluoxymesterone to Aaron DiPrima that was the owner of a local gym. The gym owner supplied the police officer Robert Kusmack with this medicine. Both the owner of the gym and Robert Kusmack were arrested.
the gym owner pleaded guilty in possession of an analogue. He was sentenced to one-year probation. He was also sentenced to 60 hours of community service. So, the steroid dealer was not sentenced to jail. Three steroid users lost their jobs.

Cocaine and Xanax are responsible for deaths of some celebrities


The Road Warriors, a professional wrestling tag team, were first that introduced bodybuilding-type muscularity in this sport. Hawk (Mike Hegstrand) and Animal (Joe Laurinaitis) have been comprised this tag team. Hegstrand died in 2003. His death was sudden because of a heart attack. Mike Hegstrand died when he was just 46. It is known that popular media usually reports about deaths of professional wrestlers, connecting the cases with usage of anabolic steroids. The death of Hegstrand was not an exception. After the death of this person many articles appeared in newspapers which demonized anabolic steroids for this case.
Joe Laurinaitis admitted to administration of steroids by this professional wrestling tag team. But he claimed that these medicines hadn’t lead to Hegstrand’s death. He added that other conditions were responsible for Hegstrand’s death as well as deaths of other wrestlers. This person noted that such drugs, as cocaine and Xanax had to be demonized for such cases. Joe Laurinaitis confirmed that he desired to explain that steroids had not been linked with Hegstrand’s death.
Joe Laurinaitis claimed that cocaine and Xanax had contributed in the death of this wrestler. He also noted that these drugs led to deaths of such individuals, as Henning, Rick Rude and Davey Boy Smith. According to Joe Laurinaitis, usage of cocaine frequently leads to usage of morphine. These drugs destruct health totally and cause heart attacks.
Why must affirmation of Laurinaitis be true? He was in Australia with Hegstrand. He knows about what he tells. Lately Laurinaitis joined to Andrew William Wright to talk about his experiences with “Hawk”.

What does Andrew Tilin think about doping?


The amateur cyclist and writer Andrew Tilin  received a 2-year ban. United States Anti-Doping Agency banned this person after he had admitted administrating steroids for legal hormone replacement therapy. The admitting was made by the rider in own book which will be soon probably released. The title is following: “The Doper Next Door: My Strange and Scandalous Year on Performance-Enhancing Drugs” .
this book describes individual experiences of several persons that took performance-enhancing drugs.
Thus, Tilin took the steroid testosterone for hormone replacement therapy. It is quite clear.  Actually, it is not yet clear whether this person has mentioned about personal experience linked with other medicines that increase performance.
Tilin wants to understand and describe in his book why people dope. He notices the motivations of different individuals. Do these drugs help actually? These preparations are quite controversial; the explanations linked with these medications are also controversial. Since numerous users don’t like talking about their usage, some answers on questions about doping remain unopened.
Tilin has been essentially changed due to intake of the steroid testosterone. He has become much stronger but more aggressive. This person had to worry about his health and about the methods to cheat, being an amateur rider. Thus, Tilin became to be implicated in the doping subculture.
Writing his book, this amateur rider wanted to explain that steroids are dangerous and have many undesirable symptoms.  Many athletes who have taken controlled medicines criticize Tilin. One of critics is Joe Papp, a former American cyclist. This sportsperson was caught selling and applying some performance-enhancing drugs. He didn’t admit applying controlled medications willingly; he was caught due to an investigation. His professional and personal life was destroyed because of these controlled medications. Joe Papp wrote about Tilin that he had been doped for a year intentionally. Papp mentioned that Tilin had known that the steroid testosterone was prohibited but he had used it. Then he wrote that these medicines had unexpected results in consumers.  According to Joe Papp, Andrew Tilin had to be banned for four years.
The ban of Andrew Tilin started in March 2011.

What leads to detection of steroid dealers in many cases?


Distribution of anabolic steroids without doctors’ prescription to enhance performance is illegal in United States of America. If anyone wants to sell these medications and is involved in actions connected with the steroid black market, this individual takes risks having serious troubles. But there are also ways to prevent or minimize risks being caught by law enforcements.
Distributors of steroids must follow all traffic rules. This condition is very important. If a person violates any traffic rule, driving his car, police officers’ attention will be attracted upon this action. Imagine what happens: when anyone violates speed limit rules, he/she will be stopped by police officers. Moreover, if this person also smokes pot with his friend, driving the vehicle and violating traffic laws, drug-sniffing dogs will be probably brought to determine whether there are any drugs in the car.
Furthermore, reasonable distributors of steroids keep the all preparations, the price list and the customer list in a safe place. But if some distributors of steroids keep all these things in the car in which they were smoking pot, violating speed limit laws, they will be caught possessing steroids illegally with intentions to distribute them. Then the problems start.
Distributors of steroids may say that it isn’t necessary to describe such cautions because it goes without any saying that all distributors of illegal drugs comprehend  these cautions. But real facts show that some steroid dealers make such mistakes and that’s why they are caught.
Here is a case. Deputies of Yavapai County Sheriff Office stopped a vehicle driven by Johnson because this guy violated certain traffic laws. The deputies suggested that there might be contraband in this car. The suppositions were justified. Marijuana, some 10-ml vials of the steroid testosterone and syringes were found in this cat. Some documents founded in the vehicle displayed that the quantities of steroids were at the price of over 3,000 dollars.

Role of plastic surgery in fighters


Sportspersons are always looking for any ways to increase their performance. Nobody may doubt about it. That’s why a lot of athletes use anabolic steroids or/and other medications which possess performance-enhancing effects. But there is another way too. Mixed martial artists use even plastic surgery for this need.
 Everybody knows that mixed martial artists experience facial lacerations. This is the nature of this sport.  After fighter have experienced a cut, they become more vulnerable to future cuts. The scar tissue can develop; wounds are sutured in certain situations improperly. It happens that surgeons suture just the superficial layer of the skin. This aspect leads to improper healing of underlying tissue.
An interesting article about Frank Stile, a plastic surgeon was published by the writer Jake Rossen. This specialist makes surgeries for mix martial artists. The surgeon Frank Stile removes the scar tissue and replaces it with tissue from donated corpses. Such procedures are often used for cosmetic needs. Frank Stile turns to be the first surgeon that has applied this procedure for for enhancement of performance in mixed martial artists.
It is also necessary to notice that prominent facial bones in the nose, brow and cheek may make the fighters predisposed to cuts. But it can be avoided as well. Surgeons may remove the sharp edges. It may help to avoid probable cuts.
Since predispositions to lacerations disturb fighters to reach better results, certain specialists claim that it is possible to create a super-fighter with the help of plastic operation. Thus, these fighters will have significant competitive advantages.
Earlier specialists thought about this possibility too. It can prove the work written by the science fiction author Richard Matheson.  The story was created in 1956. Richard Matheson described a future. It was written that persons watched how large robot athletes fought, trying to destroy one another’s CPUs.
When Matheson was creating the story, he didn’t suppose that it would be provocative. Numerous people desired to see other sportspersons in reality. They wanted the fighter to be other than human. That’s why many people invested much money, hoping to reach this result.
It is possible to suggest that cosmetic surgery will soon achieve the level of the method of steroid use and administration of other performance-enhancing drugs.
Of course, a lot of ethical questions appear in this case. But some experts claim that it is too late to discuss these questions. Human performance is already tightly connected with technological progress. The corruption of sports has begun numerous years ago and it can’t be stopped, according to opinions of numerous experts.
Anti-doping agencies have shown that they are not able to fight against steroids and other banned preparations effectively.  Will anybody be able to keep fighters from surgical procedures?

Many people believe that all steroid users have uncontrolled aggressiveness


A lot of individuals suppose that “roid rage” or uncontrolled aggressive behavior is a common undesirable reaction which appears in those who use steroids. Furthermore, certain persons think that it is even impossible to avoid this negative result, if you utilize steroids. Nonetheless, it is not proven scientifically that it is a real unwanted consequence of anabolic steroids. But even if we suppose that it exists, it may occur only in small number of steroid users.
Since a lot of people confirm that “roid rage” is an unexpected result of anabolic steroids, numerous ill-informed legislative suggestions were made. Some such proposals have been made in Oregon. It has been proposed to introduce some new laws. According to these new laws, if any police officials  have used deadly force, or if police force resulted in severe injuries, they should be tested for steroids.
The politician Lew Frederick has made the same proposal in Oregon House of Representatives. Those police officials that have been involved in deadly force will be investigated, tested for some drugs and their mental health will be also evaluated.
In fact, it is not clear why police officers that are involved in deadly force will be tested for steroids. Can intake of steroids prove that application of deadly force was unjustified? Is it believed that steroids because of aggressiveness can make police officers unable to make reasonable decisions?
Investigation team is a reasonable idea for police officials who use deadly force. But steroid use is not to be taken in consideration here. Positives or negatives for steroids can’t define whether deadly force has been applied properly or not. It doesn’t matter a police official has applied steroids, aspirin or just drunk juice.
So, it is possible to conclude that legislators turn to be captivated by hysteria linked with “roid rage” of anabolic steroids.  Undoubtedly, Of course, illegal intake of steroids by police officials has to be a legitimate concern. But it is not said about uncontrolled aggressive manner as a principal reason in this situation. The problem is that illegal usage of controlled substances by police officers makes them vulnerable to corruption and the black market of steroids.  Such police officers are inclined to compromise.

Jeremy Jackson joined the TV series Celebrity Rehab


Jeremy Jackson played Hobie Buchanon, the son of David Hasselhof, in the television series Baywatch. He turned to anabolic steroids and HGH in order to overcome addiction to methamphetamine.
This actor did it because he was told to go into fitness to escape from addiction to meth but now he fears for his life. Jeremy Jackson became addicted to the gym and HGH and the steroid testosterone. He can’t discontinue taking these products.
Jeremy Jackson decided to join the cast of Celebrity Rehab with the physician Drew Pinsky for Season 5. But unemployed actors should be defined having drug addiction to appear on Celebrity Rehab.  What does Celebrity Rehab represent actually? It is the first TV series about real experiences of famous persons who desire to change their lives, to escape from addiction to alcohol and drugs. Thus, they join Celebrity Rehab to be treated.  All these persons have a real decision to achieve the recovery.
The main specialist is Drew Pinsky there. This person is known better as Dr. Drew. He is a radio and television personality. This doctor hosted the talk show LOVELINE.
It is known that Jeremy Jackson doesn’t administrate methamphetamine since 2000. He doesn’t have this addiction. Then, he has joined Celebrity Rehab to treat his steroid addiction.
 Earlier the specialist Drew Pinsky claimed in an interview that he knew many things about steroids. He said that when he was 20 years old, he was in the world of bodybuilders. Those who used steroids told him about many conditions  because he was involved in medicine. They told him such things which were not said to others. The specialist Drew Pinsky noted that certain athletes began to take steroids just because anybody gave them  a tablet. They attempted to use it and became addicted to steroids step by step. Now they are dying from the addiction. They have depression, aggressive manner, mania and physical troubles. They have cut their lives by 10-20 years. They have chosen this way themselves.
Nevertheless, it is important to notice that however it is widely discussed about steroid addiction and dependency, this condition doesn’t have any scientific basis. The American Psychological Association has not yet proved it. One supposes that they need to change the methods. Thus, further studies are required in this field.

State Pharmaceuticals wants to teach sportspersons about hypogonadism and testosterone replacement therapy


The company State Pharmaceuticals manufactures subcutaneous pellet delivery system for the anabolic steroid testosterone. This company pointed out that it was a sponsor of the professional golfer Dough Baron. It turns out to be that this sportsperson is the only professional golfer that has been banned by the PGA Tour because he has broken anti-doping laws. The chief executive officer of State Pharmaceuticals Robert Whitehead proclaimed that it was not fairly to ban Dough Baron. He defended this as well as other professional sportspeople that take the steroid testosterone, when it is prescribed by health care providers in order to enhance decreased levels of this hormone in them.
While the professional golfer filed a lawsuit against the PGA Tour, Robert Whitehead supported him in this lawsuit. The CEO of State Pharmaceuticals noted that the PGA Tour didn’t have any justice to name Dough Baron a  “cheater”. However the status of the lawsuit hadn’t been made public, the PGA Tour made a decision to approve the clinical administration of the steroid testosterone by  the golfer Dough Baron. Thus, he  received a TUE for usage of the steroid testosterone for medical purposes.
Robert Whitehead explained why State Pharmaceuticals sponsored the professional golfer Dough Baron. He stated that the PGA Tour acted improperly in many cases. The sportsperson Dough Baron that needed therapeutic administration of the anabolic steroid testosterone was called a liar. So, the PGA Tour contributed in medical ignorance and kept sportsmen from improving their health. Robert Whitehead, the CEO of State Pharmaceuticals, said that numerous points of view linked with testosterone replacement therapy were not proven scientifically. These incorrect affirmations have kept numerous individuals from the medical care.
Robert Whitehead noticed that Dough Barron was guilty in one mistake: he had become the innocent victim of other persons’ ignorance.
The terms of the agreement between State Pharmaceuticals and the sportsman Dough Baron were not made public. It was just noted that the golfer would teach public about hypogonadism and testosterone replacement therapy.

Many persons, including the director general of the WADA, doesn’t understand that not all prohibited products are steroids


It seems that the director general of the WADA David Howman seems to consider that Clenbuterol is included in the group of anabolic steroids. This person believes that illegal heroin doesn’t bring so much money as anabolic steroids which are legal, if they are purchased and administrated according to doctors’ prescriptions. He is also surprised by the statement that steroids are useful in order to increase growth of livestock.
Howman  proclaims that use of steroids for growth of livestock is quite obvious due to contaminated beef in China. This person notices that the WADA has written to the Chinese minister that has to explain what actually happens in the food industry of this country.
The director general of the WADA says about Clenbuterol as about an anabolic steroid. The director general of the WADA notices that Chinese beef contains steroids. He thinks mistakenly like numerous other persons consider that all drugs that have performance-enhancing effects are anabolic steroids. It shows ignorance of these individuals. They should comprehend that not only anabolic steroids belong to the list of prohibited drugs. There are drugs that cause performance-enhancing effects but they are not steroids.
Since David Howman is the director general of the World ADA, he must display significantly better knowledge linked with banned preparations. Howman must understand the difference between such medications as Clenbuterol and anabolic steroids.
Howman points out that steroid smuggling is much more profitable than heroin smuggling because steroids are legal in certain cases but heroin is illegal under any circumstances. Furthermore, anabolic steroids are legal in some countries.
Howman  notices that banned substances are dangerous for youth, elite sportspersons and any individual that buys and administrates them illegally.

A steroid dealer from Louisiana that had to pay a tax of 52 million dollars filed a lawsuit against the state of Louisiana


A drug tax has to be paid in the state of Louisiana for distribution of steroids. This drug tax exists in this state for the past 20 years. Thus, Todd Matherne, a distributor of steroids had to pay 52 million dollars because he distributed a lot of steroids with the labels of the “Zencall Labs”.  This steroid dealer was sentenced to 7 years in prison but he served 3 years of them.
In fact, Todd  Matherne didn’t know the Louisiana’s drug stamp law. But when he was released from the prison, he found about this law. As a result, this steroid dealer filed a lawsuit against the State of Louisiana, claiming that it was incorrect to enforce him to pay 52 million of dollars. He claimed that it had been an unusual and even too cruel decision. This man confirmed that his rights were violated.
The Louisiana Department of Revenue didn’t fight against Todd Matherne in the court. It was decided to achieve agreement in this situation. Thus, the tax was decreased significantly. According to the new decision, this distributor of steroids had to pay just 2, 000 dollars instead of 52 million dollars. Nevertheless, the drug tax law has remained in Louisiana but its constitutionality is still discussed.
John Williams, a specialist in drug prosecution for the Louisiana District Attorney Association, mentioned that certain laws in different other states were ruled unconstitutionally. He confirmed that it was the same with the drug tax law in Louisiana. But since several laws try to criminal twice the same crime, they may be lifted.
John Williams claimed that this law couldn’t work well because it might exclude criminal prosecution. Williams confirmed that this law was not being used because a criminal case could be lost in exchange just for taxes.
There is also another reason which may explain why law enforcements do not want to impose the drug tax law in Louisiana. Law enforcements do not support this law because the taxes don’t go to law enforcement; they go to state agencies.
According to drug tax law, the tax of 200 dollars is indicated per 1 g of anabolic steroids, if they are distributed by weight. If these medicines are sold by dose units, it is indicated to pay 400 dollars for 10 dosage units.
As for Todd Matherne, he was a steroid dealer of the huge underground lab called “Zencall Labs”. The Louisiana State Police busted this lab in 2005. Over 10, 000 tablets and 300 capsules of Winstrol, over 6, 000 tablets of Anadrol, 3,500 tablets and 1, 900 capsules of Cialis, 1, 5000 capsules of Tamoxifen, 2, 400 capsules of Clomid, 800 capsules of Anabol and 600 capsules of Dianabol were seized by the  police officers. Furthermore, over 700 vials of injectable anabolic steroids and several pounds of raw steroid powder were also seized.

Interactive games are used to teach children that it is not fair to use steroids


“Don’t Be An Asterisk” anti-steroid campaign was established to supply people with knowledge about intake of steroids, about risks related to performance-enhancing substances within and outsides sports in order to promote stopping applying these medicines.
 But ”Don’t Be An Asterisk” was in negligence during certain time. The United States Olympic Committee (USOC) and Ad Council decided to restart activities of this campaign. It was decided to create a new gateway page for the website and to alter the name from the “Don’t Be an Asterisk” to the “Play Asterisk Free”.
The new website for “Play Asterisk Free” has links and leads to the initial “Don’t Be Asterisk” that has remained unmodified for over 2 years. This site encourages the visitors to visit another new page which is on Facebook. Thus, they can play asterisk free there. The same page will be established on Twitter with the same name “Play Asterisk Free”. So, the popular social media will promote spreading the messages of the anti-steroid.
The initial site DontBeAnAsterisk.com includes an interactive soccer game. Players  have to score goals avoiding the asterisks. The asterisks are anabolic steroids. If the interactive players don’t avoid the asterisks, they become much more muscular.
However the game has been created to convince kids that steroids are not safe, the results are opposite. Kids find it funny to fail avoiding asterisks and to observe how muscles of the interactive soccer players become essentially increased. Although the game is still available on the website, it is unlikely that it can educate kids that steroids should not be administrated.
The principal goal of this campaign is to teach kids that a consumer of steroids isn’t a trustful individual; he\she is “fake”, a “joke” and a “poser”.

Jose Canseco’s professional life is affected because of his knowledge about steroid use by baseball players


Jose Canseco who has called himself as a “godfather of steroids” in baseball writes his next book. The author avoids discussing anabolic steroids and other performance-enhancing drugs. He desires to focus on his own experience. The book which has the title “The truth hurts” will describe how Jose’s revelations about steroid use by celebrated baseball players had negative influence on his life. He is going to notice that he has been affected both professionally and financially because he knew the truth.
Jose Canseco’s first book has the title “Juiced: Wild Times, Rampant Roids, Smash Hits and How Baseball Got Big”. It is the bestseller. The author named certain baseball players that administrated steroids. Such players, as Mark McGwire, Rafael Palmeiro and Jason Giambi were mentioned in the book. So, this writer made public steroid users in baseball. Furthermore, as a result, some of these accused athletes admitted that they used banned medications. Later, as a celebration of the winning, Jose published another book that had been entitled as “Vindicated”. This writer mentioned also names of other baseball players that applied steroids. Alex Rodriguez and Roger Clemens were named by Jose Canseco.
Some people consider that the third book of this writer will fail. It will not reach the same glory as previous books, according to them. These people add that the writer will be probably surprised but connections between truth about steroids and his professional life will not draw readers’ attention.
But it is unclear whether the suppositions of these people that consider that the third book of this writer will fail will be turned to be true. Jose has been entertaining a lot of individuals, when he fought against Danny Bonaduce in a celebrity boxing match in 2009. Earlier Jose Canseco was humbled, when he fought against the football player Vai Sikahema in a boxing match. Jose Canseco was knocked by Vai Sikahema and was ridiculed by numerous persons.
It is known that Jose Canseco used anabolic steroids and his natural testosterone secretion became reduced. So, he experienced such unexpected consequences of steroids, as low sex drive and depression.
This writer also tried to contraband HCG across the Mexican border. This person did it for self-administration to be treated from reduced testosterone level. So, he had legal troubles linked with steroids.
Recently Jose Canseco entertained many individuals, when he wrote on his Twitter account that he would hit easily a softball further than Rodriguez can hit a baseball. Jose Canseco challenged Alex Rodriguez to compete with him.
The time will come and we will see whether the third book of Jose Canseco “The truth hits” will be successful.
