Oregon liquor control chairman backs 'alcohol impact area' downtown
OREGON - The Portland, Oregon City Council has yet to vote on a proposed malt liquor ban to send to the five-person Oregon Liquor Control Commission. But in case you were wondering, the man who chairs the citizen board that oversees alcohol sales in Oregon says he’s all for one should it come his way.
“I am a supporter of alcohol impact areas. It’s an excellent way for us to control some of the alcohol problems that exist in the Oregon metropolitan area,” said Phil Lang, a former Oregon House speaker who has served as chairman of the OLCC since 1998.
The city’s Office of Neighborhood Involvement has launched the process to bring a proposed ban to the city council. The impact area — the first in Oregon — would prohibit convenience stores and groceries in downtown, Goose Hollow, Northwest and Old Town from selling beer by the can, any malt liquor that contains more than 5.75 alcohol by volume, and wine that contains more than 14 percent by volume.
Affected grocers say it’s not fair to target their businesses, when many of their customers are low-income veterans and seniors looking for inexpensive alcohol to drink at home.
Lang agrees a ban would cut down on some problems caused by public drinking but “it may move some of that to another area, so you have to stay on top of it.”
He’s also asked liquor staff to study whether the agency legally could prohibit high-alcohol malt liquor and fortified wine statewide. Washington has several alcohol impact areas, and reports success in curbing public intoxication.

Mississippi is uniquely temperance-oriented. It imposed state-wide alcohol prohibition in 1907, over a dozen years before the rest of the country. It was the very first state to ratify the 18th Amendment to create National Prohibition. Following national rejection of Prohibition through Repeal in 1933, the state maintained its own state-wide prohibition for another one-third of a century. After that, it specifically "reaffirmed prohibition" when it decided to permit local option regarding alcohol.

Paul Domenech, 34, was arrested for drunk driving, but was found innocent of the charge when he proved before a jury in Tampa, Florida, that the alcohol officers had smelled on his breath was from the mixture of rubbing alcohol and gasoline that he had just used in his performance as a professional fire-breather. Don't try using this excuse. Better yet, don't drink and drive.

What are the similarities among alcoholic beverages? Of course, beer, wine, and spirits all contain ethyl alcohol (ethanol) as a product of fermentation in the manufacturing process. Beer (and sometimes wine) has natural carbonation, which may alter the absorption rate of ethanol. In general, one beer, one 5-ounce glass of wine, and 1.5 ounces of spirits contain similar amounts of alcohol (thus these are called "beverage units"). The ethanol in all alcoholic beverages is "handled" by the body identically - metabolism, effects on organs, etc. People can become dependent ("addicted to alcohol") on any alcoholic beverage.
