Communities take aim to snuff out smoking.

When the Minnesota Department of Health released a report on smoking in early January, newspapers played up the cost angle. "Smoking's tab up 32 percent in Minnesota," proclaimed a Pioneer Press headline. "Health care costs tied to smoking rise," the Star Tribune reported. Buried beneath the headlines, however, was the real story: Minnesota's anti-smoking efforts have stalled out. Despite intense efforts to curb smoking in the state, our smoking rate has hovered around 22 percent since 1990. A 1991 jump to 23.3 percent placed us above the national average of 23 percent and knocked us out of first place in a Northwestern National Life Insurance Co. ranking of the nation's healthiest states.

When doctors cross the line.

Everybody's doing it. Lawyers. Professors. Yes, even doctors. Professionals in positions of authority and trust are taking a closer look at how they relate to their clients, students, or patients. Perhaps it all started with Anita Hill, the woman who sounded the wake-up call that was heard around America with the message that sexual harassment, even sexual innuendo, will no longer be tolerated. It's a new day and age. Today, for ethical as well as practical reasons, some bar associations (including Minnesota's) are warning lawyers not to have sex with clients, and many colleges are forbidding professors from getting involved with students. The American Medical Association and state medical boards are also re-evaluating the rules, because in today's climate even something as simple as a pat on the knee can get a physician in trouble.
