"During the past year, how often do you have a drink with alcohol?" "During the past year, how often did you have six or more drinks at one time?" "During the past year, how often were you not able to stop drinking once you had started?" Those are the questions the state Department of Health and Health Care Authority are asking in the new ePrevention tool, an online screening tool to combat alcohol misuse. For those whose responses indicate potentially dangerous alcohol use, the tool connects them with nationwide and New Mexico-specific resources for people hoping to reduce their alcohol intake. "We're hoping that this will bring some better awareness to people. ... They can and should assess their own drinking behavior, and this gives them a tool to do it," Rebecca Neudecker, section manager for the Office of Alcohol Misuse Prevention at the state Department of Health, said in an interview. A tool like this has particular relevance in New Mexico, which had the highest alcohol-related death rate in the country in 2021, Neudecker said. More than 2,000 New Mexico residents — six people per day — died due to excessive drinking that year, according to data from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. In addition to death, excessive alcohol use is associated with cancer, heart disease, anxiety and depression, learning and memory problems, liver disease, digestive issues, violence, and motor vehicle crashes, Department of Health data shows. The screening tool is the result of a partnership between the two state agencies as well as CHESS Health, a New York-based company that creates technology to aid in addiction management and recovery. The tool could prove useful in doctors' offices for providers to assess patients' alcohol intake, according to Tami Spellbring, deputy director for Clinical and Prevention Services at the Health Care Authority. "This screening tool will assist medical providers, social workers and mental health professionals in helping New Mexicans get the support they need," Spellbring said in a news release. "Improving access to online screening and intervention for alcohol misuse is a much-needed step forward," Spellbring added. But the online tool also works without a provider — making it a good option for those who don't visit a primary care provider regularly, Neudecker noted. "It allows people to assess where they are privately — if they want to do that, if their drinking is reaching a level that they need to be concerned about," she said.PORT HARCOURT – The Managing Director of the Niger Delta Development Commission, NDDC, Dr Samuel Ogbuku, says the Commission is investing in digital learning because it holds the key to unlocking untapped potential and shaping the future of the Niger Delta region. Ogbuku, who spoke during an interactive session with newsmen at the NDDC’s headquarters in Port Harcourt, stated that the Commission was determined to harness the power of technology to build a brighter future for the Niger Delta, where every child would have the tools and opportunities to succeed. He remarked that the NDDC, in collaboration with the Renewed Hope Initiative, RHI, of Nigeria’s First Lady, Sen. Oluremi Tinubu, launched a large-scale digital education initiative aimed at distributing 45,000 U-Lesson tablets to primary and secondary schools across the nine states in Nigeria’s Niger Delta region. According to the NDDC boss, the initiative was aimed at enhancing educational opportunities in the Niger Delta region through the distribution of U-Lesson tablets and software designed to improve student literacy and learning outcomes. He stated: “The initiative fosters a conducive learning environment by integrating digital learning resources. It aligns with the Sustainable Development Goals, particularly Goal 4, which emphasises the importance of inclusive and equitable quality education. This approach aims to empower students, ensuring they have the tools to excel academically and compete globally. “It is all about being pragmatic and positioning our region for the future. Digital education came to the forefront during the outbreak of the Coronavirus pandemic, COVID-19. The pandemic taught us that interpersonal learning will be a thing of the past very soon. During the COVID-19 period, churches were functioning through online platforms. “We want the children growing up to be able to use computers and other digital devices for learning. We realise that some of our students sent outside the country for postgraduate studies struggle with the highly computerised modern society. That is why we are investing more in educating our students on digital learning.” “Education is improving, and even our phones are always on software upgrades. Education is also being improved to meet the present reality of our society so that students can compete with others when they leave our country.” Ogbuku in a statement signed by Seledi Thompson-Wakama, Director Corporate Affairs, NDDC on Sunday, explained that the U-Lesson software was tailored to the Nigerian educational framework, noting that it featured an offline video library, allowing students to access educational content without internet connectivity. The Managing Director stated: “This digital tool complements traditional face-to-face instruction, empowering students to master their materials and excel in tests and examinations. We believe that every student in our region deserves a quality education, and we are committed to providing the resources necessary to make this a reality.” Speaking on the NDDC Foreign Post-Graduate Scholarship Programme, Ogbuku observed that 2,700 students from the Niger Delta had benefitted from the scheme since its inception in 2010. He noted: “We reactivated and strengthened our foreign postgraduate scholarship scheme, making it more merit-based and funding it adequately to prevent the challenges of the past.” He said: “We have made educational development and human capacity building our key policy thrust. The previous negative narrative of the NDDC is changing due to the conscious and sustained efforts to chart a new course of development for the region.

NoneWashington — House Republicans on Thursday blocked two Democratic resolutions that would have compelled the House Ethics Committee to release a potentially damaging report on its investigation into former Rep. Matt Gaetz, voting to refer the matter back to the committee. Democratic Reps. Sean Casten of Illinois and Steve Cohen of Tennessee introduced twin privileged resolutions, forcing floor action within two legislative days. In a 206 to 198 vote, all but one Republican voted to refer Casten's resolution back to the Ethics Committee. Cohen's resolution met the same fate in a 204 to 198 vote, with one Republican voting with Democrats. Republican Rep. Tom McClintock of California was the only member to cross party lines. In a statement, Casten accused his Republican colleagues of voting "to sweep these allegations under the rug and set an unfortunate precedent." He said he would continue to pursue the report's release. The votes came after President-elect Donald Trump announced last month that he intended to nominate Gaetz for attorney general, prompting intense scrutiny over the Florida Republican's background and the House Ethics Committee's investigation into allegations that Gaetz engaged in sexual misconduct and illicit drug use. Gaetz, who has denied the allegations, withdrew from consideration for the attorney general nomination a little over a week after Trump made the announcement. Gaetz immediately resigned from Congress after Trump announced he wanted the Florida Republican to join his Cabinet. The timing of his resignation came days before the House panel was set to vote on releasing its report on Gaetz. House Speaker Mike Johnson, a Louisiana Republican, urged the committee to keep the report secret, arguing that a former member is beyond the panel's jurisdiction and it would set a "terrible precedent." "I believe it is very important to maintain the House's tradition of not issuing ethics reports on people who are no longer members of Congress," he said on Nov. 15. "The House Ethics Committee's jurisdiction is over sitting members of Congress. That's an important rule." Casten's resolution cited four instances in which the Ethics Committee has released reports on its investigations into members after they've resigned. The bipartisan committee met Nov. 20 to consider whether to release the report , but was evenly split along party lines about how to move forward. A day later, Gaetz withdrew himself from consideration, facing a tenuous path to Senate confirmation. There was growing interest from senators on both sides of the aisle in seeing the report before a confirmation vote. The House Ethics Committee met again Thursday to discuss its investigation into allegations against Gaetz. In a statement, the panel said it is "continuing to discuss the matter." The committee's top Democrat, Rep. Susan Wild of Pennsylvania, who wanted the report made public, did not attend the meeting.
