This article focuses on the issue of narcotics and Turkey over a 30-year period. Its point of departure is the 1970s, when the opium production crisis in Turkey, and its associated corrosion of relations with the US, had been brought to an end. The article concentrates on the period in the late 1980s/early to mid-1990s, when the hard drugs issue became fused with other security threats like terrorism and state corruption. During this dark period, Turkey's criminal organizations that were trafficking narcotics made significant inroads in alliance-building with parts of the security state.

As a researcher, I am disappointed in the Register's recent editorial regarding the very real phenomenon of diaper need. It costs about $20 to $25 a week to diaper a child. For most families, it is a temporary expense, but a very real one, particularly for families who are already struggling to feed their children. The Huggies study surveyed a sample of more than 2,000 mothers of infants and toddlers in the United States and Canada. What it found was hard evidence that diapers are a tremendous source of stress for mothers who are trying to cope with not only the strain and worry of being new mothers, but also financial instability.
