Food and Drug Administration

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA or USFDA) is a federal agency of the United States Department of Health and Human Services, one of the United States federal executive departments. The FDA is responsible for protecting and promoting public health through the regulation and supervision of food safety, tobacco products, dietary supplements, prescription and over-the-counter pharmaceutical drugs (medications), vaccines, biopharmaceuticals, blood transfusions, medical devices, electromagnetic radiation emitting devices (ERED), cosmetics, animal foods & feed and veterinary products.

The FDA was empowered by the United States Congress to enforce the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, which serves as the primary focus for the Agency; the FDA also enforces other laws, notably Section 361 of the Public Health Service Act and associated regulations, many of which are not directly related to food or drugs. These include regulating lasers, cellular phones, condoms and control of disease on products ranging from certain household pets to sperm donation for assisted reproduction.

    FDA (trade union)

    The FDA, formerly The Association of First Division Civil Servants, is a trade union for UK senior and middle management civil servants and public service professionals founded in 1918.

    Its over 19,000 members include Whitehall policy advisers middle and senior managers, tax inspectors, economists and statisticians, government-employed lawyers, crown prosecutors, procurators fiscal, schools inspectors, diplomats, senior national museum staff, senior civil servants, accountants and National Health Service (NHS) managers.

    Membership structure and affiliations

    Its federal structure means that some sections of the union operate under separate branding. Three parts of the union have distinctive institutional features. Senior staff at HM Revenue and Customs join the Association of Revenue and Customs (ARC) which is also a certified trade union as well as a section of FDA. Managers in the NHS join Managers in Partnership (MiP), a joint venture with Unison (http://www.unison.org.uk/) of which MiP members are also members. Members in mddle management (Higher Executive Officer and Senior Executive Officers) join Keystone (wearekeystone.org.uk).

    Ain't Livin' Long Like This

    by: Foghat

    R. Crowell - Jolly Cheeks Music - BMI
    I looked for trouble and I found it son,
    Straight down the barrel of a lawman's gun.
    I'd try to run but I don't think I can,
    You make one move and you're a dead man, friend.
    Ain't livin' long like this,
    Can't live at all like this, can I baby?
    He slipped the handcuffs on behind my back,
    Then left me freezin' on a steel rail rack.
    Can't sleep at all in the jailhouse baby,
    Ain't livin' long like this.
    Grew up in Houston on the wayside drive,
    Son of a car hop in some all nite dive.
    Dad drove a stock car to an early death,
    All I remember was a drunk man's breathe.
    Ain't livin' long like this,
    Can't live at all like this, can I baby?
    We know the story how the wheel goes 'round,
    Don't let 'em take you to the man downtown,
    They got 'em all in the jailhouse baby.
    Ain't livin' long like this,
    Can't live at all like this, can I baby? Ah take it!
    {Erik - Solo}
    I live for Angel, she's a road house queen,
    Makes Texas Ruby look like Sandra Dee.
    I want to love her but I don't know how,
    I'm at the bottom of a jailhouse now.
    Ain't livin' long like this,
    Can't live at all like this, can I baby?
    You know the story 'bout the jailhouse rock,
    Go on and do it, but just don't get caught.
    They got 'em all in the jailhouse baby.
    Oh, ain't livin' long like this.
    Oh no!
