The life of a heroin user

Heroin is perhaps the most widely recognised drug from the group known as opioids.
Others are opium, morphine, codeine, oxycodone, buprenorphine and methadone.
Of all these drugs, heroin is probably the one perceived to be the most dangerous. But what do we really know about who's likely to even try heroin or become addicted to it?
In his new book Professor Shane Darke, from the National Drug and Alcohol Research Centre, takes a biographical approach to the lifecycle of the heroin user from birth until death.

LulzSec Kayla suspect(s) held in UK

Officers from the Metropolitan Police Service's Central e-Crime Unit (PCeU) have today arrested two men for conspiring to commit offences under the Computer Misuse Act 1990.
The arrests - [E] 24ys and [F] 20ys - are part of an ongoing investigation in collaboration with the FBI, South Yorkshire Police and other law enforcement bodies in the UK and overseas, into the activities of the online 'hacktivist' groups Anonymous and LulzSec - in particular in connection with suspected offences conducted under the cover of the online identity 'Kayla'.
The men were arrested separately at addresses in Mexborough, Doncaster, South Yorkshire and Warminster, Wiltshire. The Doncaster address was searched by police and computer equipment was removed for forensic examination.
The arrested men have been detained at police stations in South Yorkshire and central London whilst further enquiries and interviews are conducted.
Detective Inspector Mark Raymond, from the PCeU, said: "The arrests relate to our enquiries into a series of serious computer intrusions and online denial-of-service attacks recently suffered by a number of multi-national companies, public institutions and government and law enforcement agencies in Great Britain and the United States.
"We are working to detect and bring before the courts those responsible for these offences, to disrupt such groups, and to deter others thinking of participating in this type of criminal activity."
