 U.S. Newswire:                                                             
 The American Medical Association issued five "New Year's resolutions for   
 a healthier America" in 1994:                                              
                                                                            
  1.  Quit Smoking or Help Someone Else to Stop                             
      Tobacco-caused illnesses kill 450,000 Americans each year.            
  2.  Conduct a Home Safety Inspection                                      
      Check your home for potential hazards.                                
  3.  Learn Child and Adult CPR (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation)             
      As many as 200,000 lives could be saved each year.                    
  4.  Clean Out Your Medicine Cabinet                                       
      Dispose of old medicines.                                             
  5.  End the Cycle of Family Violence                                      
      Violence in the home kills or injures millions of women, children     
      and the elderly.                                                      
                                                                            
    The AMA provides New Year's resolutions as a reminder that the most     
    effective health care is preventive.  Many of today's diseases and      
    injuries can be controlled or avoided by changing lifestyles or         
    developing an awareness of hazards, according to the AMA.
