Content: Following World War II, Chrysler had a large number of dealers that carried two or more Chrysler makes, with Plymouth–DeSoto and Chrysler–Plymouth relationships being the most common. However, as Chrysler attempted to spin Plymouth off into stand-alone dealerships, existing dealers typically chose to become higher-volume Plymouth dealerships over the slower-selling DeSoto brand, leaving the marque with a weakened dealer network and fewer outlets selling its cars. Also, DeSoto Division's failure to adjust to changing market trends by introducing a new compact car model in 1960 as its GM and Ford counterparts, as well as its own Dodge and Plymouth siblings did, also hastened its demise. Brand management and marketing
It was Chrysler's own brand management, which pitted each of the five marques (Plymouth, Dodge, DeSoto, Chrysler and Imperial) against one other, that did the greatest damage to DeSoto and, ultimately, to the company itself in long-range product planning. [ citation needed] Rather than carefully managing the market relationship to specific price points for all consumers, as General Motors had done so successfully, Chrysler allowed its own divisions to develop products targeting markets covered by their own sister divisions. Dodge was, by far, the most successful when it introduced the lower-priced Dodge Dart in 1960, advertising for which compared the Dart to the "C" car, the "F" car, and the "P" car—Chevrolet, Ford, and Plymouth. While Dart sales soared in 1960, they did so at the expense of Plymouth, which lost sales to the Dart. Plymouth, traditionally one of the "low priced three" fell out of third place, only to regain it twice (1971 and 1974) before its own demise in 2001. When Chrysler marketing showed that consumers were likelier to buy an entry-level Chrysler than a DeSoto, Chrysler, seeing the opportunity, introduced the Chrysler Newport as a 1961 model, selling more than 45,000 units in its first year. At less than $3,000, the Newport, along with the Dodge Custom 880 introduced in 1962 covered the small price range that DeSoto had filled.

This move downmarket by Chrysler Division into DeSoto's price class was also fueled by the launch of the luxury Imperial as a separate make and division in 1955. "The Final DeSoto"
While various collectors claim to own the last DeSoto sold to the public, DeSoto's Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) system was altered in its final days, showing that the "final" DeSoto could have been produced on any number of dates in the last half of November 1960. DeSoto trucks

Your dog will be losing puppy teeth between the age of 3 to 7 months. Like humans, the adult teeth push the puppy teeth out. Puppy Age - Teeth that Fall Out and Grow
3 Months: Puppy Incisors begin to fall out
4 Months: Adult Canines and Molars start to come in
6 to 7 Months: Adult Molars Come In
7 to 8 Months: Full Adult Teeth
By month 8 your dog should have a full set of 42 teeth. In general, the larger the dog, the faster you will see teeth. Certain breeds have fewer (Doberman Pinshers), or more teeth (spaniels, hounds, greyhounds). Puppies are just like babies and seek to teeth to relieve the pain of the teeth breaking through the gums.

Content: A puppy can be vaccinated for Parvovirus as early as 5 weeks. A combination vaccine (5-way) should be given at 6 and 9 weeks. At 12 and 15 weeks of age your puppy will need another combination vaccine, possibly a 7-way, as well as a rabies vaccine. Adult dogs will also require a booster shot once a year. What Are The Risks Or Side Effects My Puppy Might Experience From The Vaccines? While puppy vaccines are generally safe for all dogs, there are a few things you should watch for after the shot has been given. Mild reactions include fever, soreness at the injection site, and loss of appetite. These minor reactions usually resolve within 24 hours without treatment. Uticaria is a moderate reaction of the skin and is exhibited as hives, rapid swelling and redness of the lips, around the eyes, and in the neck region. It is usually very itchy.

Content: Giving a distemper/parvo combination vaccine is essential for the health of puppies. Shortly after puppies are born, they receive immunity to many diseases from their mother’s milk (called colostrum). As the puppy matures, this immunity fades. At w hat age should I Vaccinate my Puppy against Distemper and Parvo? DHPP Vaccine
Typically between 6-10 weeks vaccination with a combination vaccine should begin. Some toy breed dogs may not start vaccinations until 12 weeks of age due to their small size. Puppies should receive a vaccine every 3 weeks until they are 16 weeks of age. The final vaccine should be given at or after 16 weeks of age for ideal protection. A minimum of 2 vaccines must be given to puppies for the best protection. Depending on when the puppy’s vaccine series begins, they may receive 2-4 vaccinations in total.

For adult dogs, consideration should be give to the dog’s risk level of being exposed to distemper and parvo when deciding on adult boosters. Discuss with your veterinarian the number of cases they see. Checking with local shelters and rescue groups can also be helpful. If these diseases are not common in your area, booster vaccines may be given less often than if your dog is often exposed to these diseases. Dogs that frequent dog parks, dog shows, boarding facility, and day-care facilities may also be at increase risk.

Determining A Dog’s Age
By Brandy Arnold
Posted on Aug 4, 2014
There are many reasons why it’s important to know a dog’s age. From the type of diet he should be eating, to what type of behavior to expect, and to determine if he is suffering a health problem or is simply getting older and slowing down. While it’s quite easy to tell a puppy from an adult dog, many fully grown dogs look a lot alike whether they’re 3 or 13. Fortunately, since our pups can’t speak up and tell us what year they were born, there are a few simple ways to make a close estimate of a dog’s age. Examine the Dog’s Teeth
Checking your dog’s teeth is the most common (and easiest) way to know how old he is. Normally, dogs develop all of their permanent teeth when they are about 7 months old. 1. If your pooch’s teeth are all clean and white, it is possible that he is about 1 year of age or younger. 2. Once you see a yellowish discoloration at the back of his teeth, your pooch may be about a year or two.

Once you see a yellowish discoloration at the back of his teeth, your pooch may be about a year or two. 3. When a minimal tartar build-up is present and if some of his teeth wear off, he may already be about 3 to 5. 4. If your dog shows a more extensive amount of wear, as well as tartar presence on his teeth, then he may likely be anywhere between the age of 5 to 10. 5.

What Happens during Fido’s Teething Process
When Does He Lose his Teeth
What to Consider
Advertisement
Content: Each of his baby tooth roots generally becomes taken in by his emerging adult tooth, though there are times when this does not take place properly. At about three months of age, your pup will begin to lose his incisors in order to make room for the new teeth. When your pooch is four months old, his adult molar and canine teeth will start to appear. While the molars come in at the age of six or seven months, Fido’s complete set of new adult teeth emerge between the seventh or eighth months. What to Consider
As soon as your little pooch reaches the age of eight months old, he shall develop a total of 42 teeth. Some dogs, however, may have fewer or more. Generally speaking, the larger the breed, the quicker his teeth will emerge. To ensure that your Fido shows no bite problems, visit you vet by the time he’s three or four months of age. To offer your little buddy some relief while he’s teething, make sure to have plenty of chew toys available in differing texture and softness. Sometimes, a washcloth dipped in water and frozen can soothe sore gums, too.

Content: Baby teeth come in first, followed by adult teeth. Unlike us humans, who take months and years to get all our teeth in, dogs do it in a matter of months. In fact, your puppy’s baby teeth start coming in between 3 to 5 weeks of age, and all their baby teeth are full grown by the time they’re 8 weeks old. Around age 4 to 6 months, the process starts all over again, with a dog’s adult teeth coming in. How Many Teeth Does a Dog Have? A puppy grows 28 baby teeth. Those include 12 incisors, 4 canines and 12 premolars, according to the Dogster article, What Age Do Puppies Lose Their Teeth?. In comparison to us humans, a puppy doesn’t have his baby teeth for very long. A month after he finishes growing them, your puppy starts losing his baby teeth. Adult dogs have 42 teeth.

Content: Chew toys may seem to provide an innocuous way to keep your dog entertained, but they also serve important purposes for dogs who don’t have patience for dental care that isn’t administered under anesthesia by a vet. Look for chew toys that are safe and recommended for your dog based on age, size, and breed. Nylon, rawhide, and rubber toys are most frequently cited for the benefits they provide at keeping a dog busy, helping to remove buildup, and working the gums. Additionally, there are dog treats readily available with ingredients that support dental health. Varying your dog’s diet to include hard kibbles that include dental supplements can be of great value to dogs that resist traditional brushing of all 42 of their adult dog teeth. Share your experiences with dog teeth! Every visit to the veterinarian should include a basic dental checkup, and that checkup should be scheduled at least once a year, particularly at and after age three. More than two-thirds of dogs develop preliminary symptoms of gum or dental disease by the age of three, making regular maintenance essential to your dog’s overall health. How do you and your dogs deal with dental health care? Do you have difficulty with brushing, but better luck with other methods?

Content: The process of puppy teething begins as puppies enter their third month — weeks 12 to 16 — and lasts two to three months as their replacements sprout into place. An adult dog’s mouth contains 42 teeth in total, and all should be visible by 6 months of age. In the order that they erupt, the permanent set includes: 12 incisors. The first baby teeth to erupt are the first to be replaced. Between weeks 12 and 16, or three to four months of age, the deciduous incisors start being forced out by their permanent versions. All permanent incisors should appear by 5 months of age. Incisors are precision cutting instruments. In the wild, they help a dog remove flesh from as close to the bone as possible. They are also the primary teeth used in self-grooming.

Content: Adult dogs gain four premolars as they reach maturity. These teeth begin to erupt between 16 and 20 weeks of age, and should all have emerged by 5 months. Premolars are sharp, jagged, and angled teeth that are used for tearing and grinding food. Premolars are the ones used most with chew toys. 10 molars. There are four molars at the rear of the upper jaw, two on each side. There are six molars on the lower jaw, three on each side. The molars erupt between weeks 16 to 24. These teeth are broader and flatter, helping a dog crush and pulverize his food en route to the digestive tract. Adult dog teeth tend to have fully grown in by 8 months. (

Content: There are four molars at the rear of the upper jaw, two on each side. There are six molars on the lower jaw, three on each side. The molars erupt between weeks 16 to 24. These teeth are broader and flatter, helping a dog crush and pulverize his food en route to the digestive tract. Adult dog teeth tend to have fully grown in by 8 months. ( Photo via Shutterstock)
All of a puppy’s permanent teeth should have erupted by 5 to 6 months of age. Compare that to human children, who tend to begin losing baby teeth around 5 or 6 years of age. A puppy’s accelerated maturation compared to humans means their adult teeth have already erupted by 8 months. These are just rules of thumb, not strict guidelines. Size and breed have an impact on the length of the process.

Plastic wall panels are an inexpensive way to dress up a room. They’re easy to clean and simple to install. However, fitting them means you'll initially need to cut them to fit the wall. Alternatively, you may need to make cuts for a pipe or an outlet box. Cutting plastic wall panels is not a particularly challenging job but you will need to be studious and precise for the paneling to look good. Continue reading below Our Video of the Day
Step 1: Measuring and Testing
Measure the wall to check what size you need the plastic wall panels to be. Next, measure out the wall panel itself, with the finished side up, and mark the measurements onto the surface of the panel. What you use to cut the panel depends on the type of panel itself.

If it’s hard plastic, you’ll need to use a hacksaw. If the plastic is softer, you should be able to use tin snips. The best means of testing the panel for cutting is to take a scrap piece of the plastic wall panel and try the tin snips first. If the panel is too hard, it will quickly snap or crack. If it’s too soft, the plastic will stretch a little when cut with tin snips.

Content: In both of these situations, use a hacksaw instead. Cut with the finished side up and if you use a hack saw, make sure the blade is of a very fine grading. You can score and cut any small edges with a utility knife. The main thing to be sure of is that you cut exactly on the marked line. It’s best if you go slowly and check every so often that you are keeping to the line. The fine blade on the hacksaw with help you get a smoothly finished edge. Step 2: Cutting a Hole
When you need to cut a hole to go around a pipe or an outlet box, you’ll need to employ a different technique. Very carefully mark the dimensions of the hole you need on your plastic wall panel. In the center of the hole, use the drill with a ½-inch bit to punch through the plastic, drilling through from the finished side.

In a house where smoking once occurred indoors, there likely will be cigarette smoke stains on the walls. These are unsightly to have around, and thanks to the presence of nicotine and tar, they are just as bad to clean up. There are numerous products on the market for doing this, and the best thing to do is pick one that says extra strength first. If it does not work, then it will be time for a different approach. Check out the advice below for some other options you can use. Keep in mind that this job will still take some time and elbow grease, and make sure you wear rubber gloves to protect you skin while you work. Continue reading below Our Video of the Day
Step 1 - Dab Stains with Rubbing Alcohol
Rubbing alcohol is a cheap option as most people already have it sitting around the home. Soak part of a cleaning rag in it and wipe the stains. It's important to note that this may harm some types of paint, so test it in a discreet area first.

When you are cleaning the walls, work your way from top to bottom. If you start near the floor, there is a good chance any excess formula will run down the walls and take the nicotine tar with it. This will dirty much of what you already cleaned. Also, if you need to, go over the walls a second time.

409 is a cleaner recommended for this job. Have several clean wash rags at the ready and, depending on the size and number of walls to clean, at least two bottles of 409. To avoid wasting a lot of this clean, spray it directly onto the rags rather than the walls, and then scrub the stains. That way, you won't have formula dripping down the walls before you can use it. Step 3 - Try One of these Other Cleaning Products
In the event that the previous two methods didn't work, don't fret. There are still a number of other products you can work your way through such as Clorox Clean-Up, Mr. Clean Magic Erasers, Simple Green, and dry-cleaning chemical sponges.

There is one last-ditch solution for cigarette stains when all else fails: repainting. However, you can't simply apply a coat of paint on top of the stains. The nicotine and tar will seep through. Instead, use a stain-blocking primer like Kilz Primer first.

Hallmarks of Self Esteem
I learn by going where I have to go. - Theodore Roethke
(from The Artist's Way by Julia Cameron)
Content: Whatever helps you live a balanced, happy, fulfilling life, respecing yourself and others, is part of positive self esteem. We Are All Just Doing Our Best
Healthy self esteem is not about being perfect or never making mistakes. Its about working towards the positive in life. When things go wrong and when things go right, its about preserving the good things like love, friendship, family, hope, making a contribution, sharing, kindness and fun. Did I already mention love? With each new situation you get to choose afresh. Keep on choosing the negative and this is what your life will mainly consist of. Keep choosing the positive and you are moving in the right direction. Photo by Hamed Masoumi
Help Good Things Happen
People with positive self esteem may appear lucky or it may seem that things come more easily to them. But there is a certain mindset and approach to life that encourages good things to happen and that deals with bad things in a way that does its best not to create more bad feelings or lasting unhappiness.

People with positive self esteem may appear lucky or it may seem that things come more easily to them. But there is a certain mindset and approach to life that encourages good things to happen and that deals with bad things in a way that does its best not to create more bad feelings or lasting unhappiness. In many cases healthy self esteem is about saying yes to life and your experiences. Accepting what already exists right now is important, because once something has happened you cannot erase and rewind. Don't waste precious energy fighting what has already happened. Save it for figuring out how to respond. This is your only real point of choice.

Content: Sometimes it is about saying: Stop. No. Or, I'm leaving this situation. Knowing when enough is enough and having the ability to act on this knowledge is also part of having high self esteem. The assertive part. Developing the characteristics of positive self esteem is possible. How easy it is depends on how strongly you hold on to habits of thinking and behaving that do not work for you. It can be difficult to change if you don't know how, but when enough factors come together, changes can come about easily and naturally. You have to be open to the cues that show up in your life and be willing to start somewhere.

With the completion of the St. Croix Crossing Bridge on August 2, 2017, vehicle traffic has been re-routed from the existing Stillwater Lift Bridge, which is undergoing a transformation to a bicycle and pedestrian facility. The Loop Trail will cross the St. Croix River at the Stillwater Lift Bridge and on the new St. Croix Crossing Bridge. Trails in Minnesota and Wisconsin will complete the loop and will connect to regional and local trail systems.

Headings:
Frequently Asked Questions
Where does the money come from?
General fund revenues
Nongeneral fund revenues
Where does the money go?
How is Virginia's budget adopted?
How much of the state's money goes back to localities?
Content: State transportation revenue comes from several sources including the motor vehicle fuels tax, the motor vehicle sales and use tax, road taxes, vehicle license fees, state sales tax, interest earnings, and other miscellaneous taxes and fees. Money in this fund is used to support highway construction and maintenance and operating costs. Federal, local, and toll revenues are also used to finance transportation programs. For the biennium, transportation revenues are anticipated to be $5.9 billion. Other nongeneral fund revenue sources include fees paid by citizens and businesses for licenses ($2,840.1 million), profits on sales of alcoholic beverages ($2,365.3 million), Unemployment Insurance Fund ($776.0), and earnings on state funds and rents ($451.2 million). Table showing 2020-2022 revenue estimates
Where does the money go? Virginia's state government budget is divided into an operating budget and a capital budget. The operating budget includes expenses to run the daily activities of government. The capital budget includes the one-time costs of building, improving, or repairing government facilities. The budget of the Commonwealth for the 2020-2022 biennium includes $134.2 billion for operating expenses and $3.3 billion in capital outlay.

Title: Candidiasis Yeast Infections
Headings: Candidiasis... The Yeast Infection
Candidiasis... The Yeast Infection
Content: Dr. Martin H. Zwerling, M.D., in an article published in the South Carolina Medical Association Journal told of an "incurable" patient who was being treated by several specialists: "Her gynecologist is treating for recurrent vaginitis and irregular menstrual periods, while an otolaryngologist is trying to control her external otitis and chronic rhinitis. At the same time, her internist is unsuccessfully attempting to manage symptoms of bloating, indigestion and abdominal pain, and a dermatologist is struggling with bizarre skin rashes, hives and psoriasis. Lastly, her psychiatrist has been unable to convince the patient that her 'nerves' are the cause of her extreme irritability, inability to concentrate and depression. Some doctors would label such a patient as "psychosomatic" and since there is "nothing physically wrong", the doctors might conclude that they cannot cure her." Incurable? Not if you THINK YEAST! This patient and thousands like her are suffering from chronic candidiasis. Some of the sickest patients seen in private practice have a problem with Candida albicans and will respond to treatment.

Title: Candidiasis Yeast Infections
Headings: Candidiasis... The Yeast Infection
Candidiasis... The Yeast Infection
Content: Naturopathic medicines and nutrients can rid the body of Candida overgrowth while leaving natural disease-fighting "good bacteria" needed for robust health. Unfortunately, many physicians don't recognize systemic Candida overgrowth as a medical problem unless it is found exclusively in the mouth (as thrush) or vagina (as yeast). That is why many chronic problems caused by Candida are often misdiagnosed and determined to be of mental rather than physical origin. One must remember that the body functions as a complex, interrelated system. Since hormone imbalances, hypoglycemia, low thyroid function, candidiasis, vitamin and nutritional deficiencies, allergies (of food, chemical or environmental origin), toxin accumulations, negative stresses and other conditions are all interrelated they must all be addressed in order for a person to regain and enjoy good health. This is what naturopathic medicine strives to accomplish. We know the use of excess natural sugars (including honey) can aggravate and continue the Candida problem. Our clinic uses natural, yeastfree medicines. TABLE 3 Partial List of Possible Common Yeast- Connected Signs, Symptoms and Conditions. ( Only a trained physician should make the determination of diagnosis as these symptoms could be caused by other problems such low thyroid, toxin accumulation, environmental allergies, nutritional deficiencies, etc.)

Descriptive Studies
What are descriptive studies? Descriptive studies are observational studies which describe the patterns of disease occurrence in relation to variables such as person, place and time. They are often the first step or initial enquiry into a new topic, event, disease or condition. Descriptive studies can be divided into two roles - those studies that emphasize features of a new condition and those which describe the health status of communities or populations. Case reports, case-series reports, before-and-after studies,cross-sectional studies and surveillance studies deal with invidiuals. Ecological Studies examine populations. Common misuses of descriptive studies involve a lack of a clear, specific and reproducible case definition and establishing a casual relationship which the data cannot support. Whilst descriptive studies can highlight associations between variables or between exposure and outcome variables, they cannot establish causality. Descriptive studies do not have a comparison (control) group which means that they do not allow for inferences to be drawn about associations, casual or otherwise. However, they can suggest hypotheses which can be tested in analytical observational studies.

1. Health care planning
Descriptive studies provide knowledge about which populations or subgroups are most or least affected by disease. This enables public health administrators to target particular segments of the population for education or prevention programmes and can help allocate resources more efficiently. 2. Hypothesis generation
Descriptive studies identify descriptive characteristics which frequently constitutes an important first step in the search for determinants or risk factors that can be altered or eliminated to reduce or prevent disease.

Jaime Escalante was a math educator from Bolivia. He immigrated to the United States in the 1960s. In 1974, he accepted a job as a math teacher at Garfield High School in East Los Angeles. The student population was predominantly Hispanic and low-income. It was a challenging place to teach, with a history of violence and academic underperformance. Escalante wanted to see his students succeed and started an advanced mathematics program. Eventually, his program grew. In 1982, his largest class took and passed the AP Calculus test. Because so many of his students had passed, the testing company suspected cheating and invalidated their scores.

Eventually, his program grew. In 1982, his largest class took and passed the AP Calculus test. Because so many of his students had passed, the testing company suspected cheating and invalidated their scores. Escalante protested, and many students retook and passed the test months later. This incident gained a lot of public attention and was the basis for the 1988 film Stand and Deliver. Jaime Escalante continued teaching until 1998. He received many awards for his work in education, including the Presidential Medal of Excellence, and was inducted into the National Teachers Hall of Fame in 1999. 2.

Content: However, adding more chemicals is sometimes dangerous, as the chemicals can be toxic. Allowing animals to graze on the land is another solution, and there are others that are non-toxic. 5. More flooding around the world. I list this problem mentioned above separately, as it is so serious. Many news stories document that flooding is a terrible human and environmental problem today. Few news stories relate it back to modern chemical agriculture, but that is one of its main causes. Flooding is the result of reduced soil permeability and loss of topsoil. When the rains come, the soil cannot absorb the water, so it just forms a torrent and tears through homes and cities. 6.

When the rains come, the soil cannot absorb the water, so it just forms a torrent and tears through homes and cities. 6. Desertification around the world. I will list this problem separately, as it, too, is so critical to stop. Desertification simply means that as the soil loses fertility, fewer weeds and other plants, bushes and trees grow in the area, and after a while the area turns to desert. This ruins it as an animal habitat, and it cannot be used for farming, ranching, or most other human activities. This is still happening across Africa and parts of Asia thanks to unwise farming practices.

CONCLUSION
Content: Desertification around the world. I will list this problem separately, as it, too, is so critical to stop. Desertification simply means that as the soil loses fertility, fewer weeds and other plants, bushes and trees grow in the area, and after a while the area turns to desert. This ruins it as an animal habitat, and it cannot be used for farming, ranching, or most other human activities. This is still happening across Africa and parts of Asia thanks to unwise farming practices. Fortunately, this problem is being addressed, more than the others, as it is so serious. 7. Insect and other pest infestations due to imbalanced plant chemistry. Insect infestations have always plagued agriculture. Lately, some of these problems are becoming worse.

Content: Uruguay became the first country to legalize marijuana in December 2013. Latin America is a crucial geographic zone for drug production and trafficking. The Andean countries of Colombia, Peru and Bolivia are the world’s main cocaine producers, while Central America, Mexico and the Caribbean have become the principal corridors for transporting drugs into the United States and Europe. As a result, the countries of the region have suffered various consequences of drug trafficking and US-led eradication and interdiction efforts. In production countries, these include environmental and community damage from forced eradication of coca crops such as aerial spraying and the funding of guerrilla insurgent groups through illicit crop cultivation and sale, most notably, FARC in Colombia and the Shining Path in Peru. Throughout the entire region, in both drug production and trafficking areas, there has been an upsurge of violence, corruption, impunity, erosion of rule of law, and human rights violations caused by the emergence of powerful organized crime groups and drug cartels. Mexico’s drug war has turned incredibly violent in recent years, resulting in tens of thousands of deaths. Law enforcement attempts to put cartels out of business by arresting key figures have led not to the demise of the drug trade, but to bloody struggles for control. With prohibition propping up drug prices, it is inevitable that the drug trade will continue, no matter how risky or violent it gets. Central America is now home to some of the world’s most dangerous cities, with the highest global homicide rate found in Honduras, at 82.1 murders per 100,000 inhabitants.

Content: They have not been charged with a crime, but are instead referred by local community mental health programs through involuntary civil commitment procedures pursuant to the LPS Act. Those whose psychiatric conditions require a higher level of care and cannot be treated in locked facilities or board-and-care homes are sent to a state hospital for treatment. LPS patients leave state hospitals when their county of residence places them in a different facility, or home with their families, or they have successfully petitioned the court to remove the conservatorship. Offenders with Mental Health Disorders (Penal Code Section 2962/2972)
Parolees who committed one of a specified list of crimes and who were treated for a severe mental disorder connected to their original crime can be committed to a state hospital as a condition of parole for a period not to exceed the length of their parole term. If the person still requires treatment at the end of their parole term, they can be civilly committed under PC2972 if it is determined that they are a substantial danger to themselves or others. These commitments last for one year and may be renewed annually by the court. Mentally Ill Prisoners transferred from CDCR (PC 2684)
These inmate-patients are transferred from CDCR for inpatient mental health care with the expectation that they will return to a CDCR facility when they will no longer require inpatient treatment. Not Guilty by Reason of Insanity (Penal Code 1026)
Patients judged by the court to be not guilty because they were insane at the time of the felony crime are committed to a state hospital for treatment for a period equal to the maximum sentence of their most serious offense. Their treatment goal is to control violent behaviors and develop socially responsible behavior and independent living skills, while treating their mental illness. Sexually Violent Predators (Welfare and Institutions Code 6602 & 6604)
Individuals who are convicted of a legislatively defined set of sex offenses who complete their prison sentences are evaluated by DSH or independent evaluators.

Title: Buddhists in Dubai?

Here's a fairly general question: What do Arab Muslims esp. locals in Dubai think of Buddhists? Buddhists have voluminous scriptures (sutra), but I assume that Buddhists would NOT be viewed as being "people of the book." Could anyone compare typical Arab attitudes on the subject with those of Southeast Asian Muslims (Malays, etc.)?

-------------------
I'm an Arab, Muslim, and a local from Abu Dhabi.
In my personal perspective I don't think anything in particular of Buddhists. Live and let live, they are free to practice their religion in their counties or in private here in the UAE. The problem would be if they tried to spread their beliefs to others while residing is the Arab world. This would be simply considered insulting and blasphemous.
In an Islamic context, Buddhists have nothing to do with the People of the Book (Muslims, followers of Jesus of Nazareth, the true followers of Moses / Jews, etc...).
Nik
Dunno if it helps but I should think the largest Buddhist community is the Sri Lankan community here...though I think its a different branch, Theravada (sp?) Buddhism as opposed to Mahayana Buddhism which is practised in the far east...I suppose the attitude towards Buddhism would be the same as towards Hinduism, lots of Indian Hindus here

Pumkin,
We are tolerant but like any community, tolerance has its limits. We have no objection to anyone practicing their religions in private or within their communities (establishing Churches in compounds).
I don't disrespect anyone's faith and I surely expect the foreign guest in my country not to disrespect ours. An example of this disrespect are the so called "missionaries" who prefer to cowardly target orphans or disadvantaged children who haven�t yet had the chance to discover their own faith. These Neo-Protestants or Evangelists are the real core of the problem in the entire Middle East. In other parts of the Arab world, our Christian Arab brothers have generally lived in hormony with the Muslim community but the ignorant, hostile, and insulting maneuvers from a small group of foreign Christian Fundamentalists are causing great discomfort in our communities.
You speak about Churches, wouldn;t you think it insulting that if a group of Muslims demanded the construction of a Mosque in the streets of Vatican City. If I was a Catholic I would be very shocked.
My advice is that when you come to our country respect our differences. If you come here as a tourist enjoy it and if you come for work / business may God bring prosperity to your venture.

Most Buddhists believe in peaceful co-existence and dialog with members of other religions/philosophies including Islam. I have never heard of any Buddhists trying to convert Muslims anywhere. If asked, a Buddhist will explain aspects of Buddhism, but that's normally it. I've read that there are some parellels between Islam and Buddhism esp. between Sufi and Zen, but I still don't know enough about Islam to comment on those.

There is no link. Islam is more than a religion, it is a way of life as presented by God through the Prophet Mohammed (PBUH).

not really. Some sufs think they can enlighten themselves by singing hymns. For example there is a surah where there is three times NAs (mean people in arabic). But some sufis mistake that for dance. SO they tell ppl "God asked us to dance morning, evening and night.... :lol:

Hi there, Are you still in Dubai? I just came from Japan, I've been there for 8 years, and I am a Professional Karate and Shakuhachi Instructor. Although both arts are very related to Zen Buddhism, the later art actually has its roots in the Fuke sect of Zen Buddhism. I am now here in Dubai in the process of establishing myself as both an instructor and performer. Please let me know if this instrument, or rather meditation tool, is of interest. If so, I would be able tell you more about it, and could play it for you to hear if it is of interest. Sincerely, Kyle Kamal Helou

There is no link. Islam is more than a religion, it is a way of life as presented by God through the Prophet Mohammed (PBUH).

not really. Some sufs think they can enlighten themselves by singing hymns. For example there is a surah where there is three times NAs (mean people in arabic). But some sufis mistake that for dance. SO they tell ppl "God asked us to dance morning, evening and night.... :lol:

Hi there, Are you still in Dubai? I just came from Japan, I've been there for 8 years, and I am a Professional Karate and Shakuhachi Instructor. Although both arts are very related to Zen Buddhism, the later art actually has its roots in the Fuke sect of Zen Buddhism. I am now here in Dubai in the process of establishing myself as both an instructor and performer. Please let me know if this instrument, or rather meditation tool, is of interest. If so, I would be able tell you more about it, and could play it for you to hear if it is of interest. Sincerely, Kyle Kamal Helou
Content: Pumkin,
We are tolerant but like any community, tolerance has its limits. We have no objection to anyone practicing their religions in private or within their communities (establishing Churches in compounds). I don't disrespect anyone's faith and I surely expect the foreign guest in my country not to disrespect ours. An example of this disrespect are the so called "missionaries" who prefer to cowardly target orphans or disadvantaged children who haven�t yet had the chance to discover their own faith. These Neo-Protestants or Evangelists are the real core of the problem in the entire Middle East. In other parts of the Arab world, our Christian Arab brothers have generally lived in hormony with the Muslim community but the ignorant, hostile, and insulting maneuvers from a small group of foreign Christian Fundamentalists are causing great discomfort in our communities. You speak about Churches, wouldn;t you think it insulting that if a group of Muslims demanded the construction of a Mosque in the streets of Vatican City. If I was a Catholic I would be very shocked. My advice is that when you come to our country respect our differences. If you come here as a tourist enjoy it and if you come for work / business may God bring prosperity to your venture.

Legacy
Content: Sports
Olympic Rings by Pierre de Coubertin
The Ancient Greeks loved athletics and sports. Their legacy is exemplified in the modern-day Olympic Games which began with the Ancient Greeks in 776 B.C. During the 2012 Summer Olympics in London over 10,000 athletes participated from over 200 nations. It is estimated that around 4 billion people around the world watched some portion of the 2012 games. Art
Greek art heavily influenced western art throughout history. The Greeks are most known for their realistic sculpture which tried to capture the beauty and perfection in the subject. Roman art copied the Greeks, and the Romans often had Greeks create sculpture for them. The Renaissance later revived the Greek style and it still can be seen in artwork today. Interesting Facts About the Legacy of Ancient Greece
Greek was spoken throughout eastern Europe for hundreds of years. Today, many European languages have words that come from Greek. Greek letters are still commonly used in math, science, and engineering equations.

Slavery
Content: Although these houses were small and cramped, they had some level of privacy from the master. Small families and communities were able to develop around these quarters. House slaves had less privacy, sometimes living by themselves in a loft above the kitchen or the stables. What did they wear? Field slaves were generally given one set of clothes that had to last them a year. These clothes were similar in style to what any colonial farmer would wear when working. Women slaves wore long dresses and men slaves wore pants and loose shirts. Slaves working in the house usually dressed nicer, often wearing their master's old clothing. How were slaves treated? Slaves were treated differently depending on their masters.

During the Industrial Revolution, women and children became an important part of the workforce. At first, this was because they would work for low pay compared to men. Often the working conditions were poor and dangerous. Eventually laws were passed to outlaw child labor. Changes in Society
The factory system had a large impact on society. Before the factory system, most people lived on farms in the countryside. With the formation of large factories, people began to move to the cities. Cities grew larger and sometimes became overcrowded.

Interesting Facts about the Factory System
In order to fight dangerous working conditions and long hours, workers began to form unions and strike. Early factories used water for power and were usually located along a river. Later factories were powered by steam and, eventually, electricity. Many factories during the Industrial Revolution had dormitories on site where the workers lived.

Woodwind Instruments
Woodwinds are a type of musical instrument that make their sound when a musician blows air into or across the mouthpiece. They get their name from the fact that most of them were once made of wood. Today many are made of other materials such as metal or plastic. The Oboe is a woodwind instrument
There are a lot of types of woodwinds including the flute, piccolo, oboe, clarinet, saxophone, bassoon, bagpipes, and recorder. They all look somewhat similar in that they are all long tubes of various sizes with metal keys that cover the holes when played to make different notes. The bigger the woodwind instrument the lower the pitch sound they make. Woodwinds can be divided up into two main types of instruments. Flute instruments and reed instruments. Flute instruments make sound when the musician blows air across an edge in the instrument while reed instruments have a reed, or two, that vibrate when the air is blown.

Plutonium
Content: This characteristic is important in nuclear reactors and nuclear explosives. Where is it found on Earth? Plutonium is an extremely rare element in the Earth's crust. It is so rare that for many years it was thought that it did not occur naturally. The main source of plutonium is from the use of uranium-238 in nuclear reactors. Large quantities are produced each year by this process. How is plutonium used today? Plutonium is used in both nuclear reactors and nuclear weapons. It was used to create the second nuclear weapon deployed during World War II which was the "Fat Man" nuclear bomb dropped on Nagasaki, Japan. Plutonium has also been used as a power and heat source for spacecraft.

How was it discovered? Plutonium was discovered by a team of scientists at the Berkeley Radiation Laboratory in California in 1940. Glen Seaborg, Arthur Wahl, Edwin McMillan, and Joseph Kennedy produced and isolated plutonium-238 from a sample of uranium. The discovery of plutonium was kept secret until 1946 because of World War II.

There is no answering evidence which is true." In a civil suit, the plaintiff has the burden of proof so in the event of a tie in the evidence, the plaintiff loses.

Justice Streit of the Supreme Court of Iowa wrote this, in re Marriage of Fennelly & Breckenfelder, in which the mother had been awarded physical care pursuant to a previous court order: "Iowa law distinguishes custody from physical care. " Custody concerns the legal rights and responsibilities toward the child, including decisions affecting the child's legal status, medical care, education, extracurricular activities, and religious instruction. "Physical care, on the other hand, is the right and responsibility to maintain a home for the minor child and provide for the routine care of the child. "When considering the issue of physical care, the child's best interest is the overriding consideration.... If joint physical care is not appropriate, the court must choose one parent to be the primary caretaker, awarding the other parent visitation rights."

Content: Sex trafficking is a growing scourge of humanity and its watchdog, the law. Coercion is the criminal motor behind sex trafficking and may take a variety of forms such as a promised marriage, prospective care of the victims' family members, and even the immigration of the victim to another country. Another well-versed form is to offer the victim or her family accommodation or services and to then demand rent repayment of those services, which, according to the trafficker, can only be repaid by the prostitution of the young, female family member. "Uneducated, marginalized, and discriminated against, these women may be lured by traffickers promising employment opportunities abroad. Regardless of socioeconomic status, Indian women may also be tricked into trafficking by individuals offering sightseeing or adventure tours or a trip to Muslim holy places. Some women are tricked into leaving home through love or friendship and others are kidnapped. Once captured, these women are forced into labor or sexually exploited.... Victims generally come from rural areas or urban slums and have very little education or are illiterate." 1
The Government of the United States offers a description of sex trafficking under the headline The Face of Modern Slavery as follows (and offering a definition of child sex trafficking): " Sex Trafficking: When an adult is coerced, forced, or deceived into prostitution—or maintained in prostitution through one of these means after initially consenting—that person is a victim of trafficking.

Content: Under such circumstances, perpetrators involved in recruiting, harboring, transporting, providing, or obtaining a person for that purpose are responsible for trafficking crimes. Sex trafficking also may occur within debt bondage, as women and girls are forced to continue in prostitution through the use of unlawful “debt” purportedly incurred through their transportation, recruitment, or even their crude “sale”—which exploiters insist they must pay off before they can be free. A person’s initial consent to participate in prostitution is not legally determinative: if one is thereafter held in service through psychological manipulation or physical force, he or she is a trafficking victim and should receive benefits outlined in the Palermo Protocol and applicable domestic laws."

The use of children in the commercial sex trade is prohibited both under U.S. law and by statute in most countries around the world. Sex trafficking has devastating consequences for minors, including long-lasting physical and psychological trauma, disease (including HIV/AIDS), drug addiction, unwanted pregnancy, malnutrition, social ostracism, and even death."

Content: and Frankenstein, by 18-year-old British writer Mary Shelley. All three works are outcries against man’s inhumanity to man. To drive home the point, the writers magnify the inhumanity so we can see it better. They do this by directing it against outcasts: a hunchback, an ex-convict, and a manmade monster. The more of an outsider someone is, the more people abuse that person. The Romantic period was the first time in history that art focused on teaching people to care about each other. In this sense, Romanticism was “art with a heart.” Romantic artists were also concerned with promoting individual liberty, ending slavery, and supporting democratic and independence movements, like the Greek war for independence from Turkey and the nationalism movement in Italy. To promote democracy in England, the Romantic poet Percy Bysshe Shelley (husband of Mary) said to his countrymen in “Song to the Men of England:”

Distinguish between Real Property and Personal Property
In this article
By Alan R. Romero
Anything that can be legally owned may be called property. All property can be grouped into two main categories: real property and personal property. Personal property can be further classified as chattels and intangibles. One reason to know these categories is simply to understand what other property lawyers are talking about. Of course, knowing the categories can also help you decide which rules should apply to a particular item of property and which remedies are available for violations of property rights. State statutes may define different categories of property for different purposes. So whenever the categorization of property makes a difference in legal rights or remedies, you should first search for relevant statutory definitions. Real property: Land and buildings
Real property describes land and things that are attached to the land, which is why land is sometimes called real estate or realty.

Real property describes land and things that are attached to the land, which is why land is sometimes called real estate or realty. Even though wood, steel, and other building materials aren’t land themselves, when they’re built into structures attached to the land, they become real property, too. Trees and other plants naturally growing on the land are also part of the real property. But plants that require regular human cultivation and labor, such as grains and vegetables, sometimes aren’t treated as part of the real property. Personal property
Personal property is all property that isn’t real property. That’s a big category.

For example, immigrants to North American from Haiti and Eastern Europe are less trusting of others than Western European Americans and African Americans. Asian Americans show fewer outwards signs of depression than European Americans, who clearly smile less and display more negative emotion when depressed. Looking for universals
Are there psychological universals? Cross-culture studies have been conducted in a wide range of areas, such as developmental psychology, cognitive psychology, and psychopathology. Cross-cultural similarities have been found for such phenomena as theory-of mind, counting ability in infants, and mate preferences (in almost all cultures studied, men value attractiveness and chastity more than women do, and women value status and financial prospects). Ultimately, as can be found with many issues in psychology, the “answer” to the human universal versus cultural variability question is that broadly speaking, the components of the mind and human behavior can be thought of as (by varying degrees) both universal and variable across cultures. Psychology and gender
Perhaps the most simple and obvious human differences are sex and gender, male or female, masculine or feminine. Nearly all descriptions of other people when we talk about them, tell stories, describe them, or research them include an accounting of sex and gender.

A gender role is a collection of social norms and expectations for a person who identifies or is identified as either masculine or feminine, man or woman. The presence of gender roles in societies gives rise to stereotypes and biases, prejudices, and judgments, of course. However, the world is still very “gendered,” and people are still pretty much viewed through the lens of gender role and gender role categories. Psychologist Sandra Bem developed the Bem Sex-Role Inventory as a way to characterize an individual’s gender in relation to a scale.

Before you begin painting walls, cut in the edges with a paint brush. Cutting in means that you use a paint brush to paint areas that are too tight for rollers (such as at the ceiling line, corners, and along baseboards and trim). Loading your brush and applying paint the proper way will prevent drips and spatter, save your brushes, and produce great-looking results. 1 Gather your tools: paint, a small container, and a 2-inch angled sash brush
You can paint in Zen-like silence or to some groovy tunes. Yeah, baby! 2 Pour some paint into your small container. You need only 1 inch of paint for now. 3 Hold your brush properly by using a pencil grip. A pencil grip provides extra control and prevents muscle fatigue.

Taking a Close Look at Disability Insurance
In this article
Your ability to earn money is one of the most significant assets that you have. Expenses often increase due to disability, while income is drastically reduced. In the event that you’re unable to continue to earn your income because of illness or injury for any period of time, your family’s financial plans could be ruined. Social Security includes a disability feature, but you’re considered disabled only if you can’t perform any work; you have to wait for at least five months to initiate benefits; and the amount you will receive will likely be less than half your income. The only way to protect yourself and your family from financial disaster is to maintain adequate disability insurance. Disability insurance replaces a portion of your income if you become ill or injured. It’s very expensive because the likelihood that you may need this benefit is relatively high. The risk isn’t something that you likely can bear yourself, so you must transfer the risk to an insurance company.

Content: and the amount you will receive will likely be less than half your income. The only way to protect yourself and your family from financial disaster is to maintain adequate disability insurance. Disability insurance replaces a portion of your income if you become ill or injured. It’s very expensive because the likelihood that you may need this benefit is relatively high. The risk isn’t something that you likely can bear yourself, so you must transfer the risk to an insurance company. Disability insurance companies won’t sell you an insurance policy to replace 100% of your income. However, they do sell policies that go up to about 70% of your current income. If you don’t have at least 70% of your current income provided through your employer’s disability insurance plan, you should obtain supplemental coverage to bring you up to 70%. If you currently need all your income to provide your standard of living and achieve your financial goals, you’re going to have trouble making ends meet if you only bring in 60% to 70% of your current income. What typically happens in real life is that people have to make drastic lifestyle changes— unless you obtain as much disability insurance as you can get.

Pregnancy and Childbirth Coverage under Medicare
Content: To receive hospital services, you need Part A hospital insurance. For doctors’ services and outpatient procedures (such as lab tests), you need Part B coverage. If you’re enrolled in Medicaid because your income is low, that program may pay some or all of your out-of-pocket Medicare costs, depending on your state’s eligibility rules. Medicaid may also pay for your infant’s medical care. But after the birth, Medicare doesn’t cover services for your baby at all. Related Articles

Content: Tips for Faculty about creating an effective syllabus that helps students to learn. The syllabus is a great place for faculty members to begin helping students appreciate the nature of a given course. As educators, we must not assume that our students explicitly understand why they are taking a given class, how it relates to the college curriculum, or what is meant by the requirements that we carefully outline in our syllabus. The stereotypical response that students give about the course being required, while humorous, reveals the need for faculty to become more explicit in their syllabus construction as a teaching tool. Sharon Rubin outlines several questions that many syllabi fail to address. Carefully crafting our syllabi to address some of these questions would help our students as they learn in our courses. 1. Why should a student want to take this course? How does it make a difference as part of the discipline? How does it fit into the general-education program?

Content: History has seen its share of wars, deaths, failures, successes and heroes. Never had it experienced horrors as it had in the 20 th century; as technology continued to evolve, so did the atrocities of war. A new kind of horror emerged, one that was not targeted towards soldiers, but towards the very core of civilizations, towards specific races; genocide. Armenians in Turkey were the first unfortunates of these horrors, but nothing has matched the six million Jews killed in the Holocaust. Other genocides have continued to occur, almost one every decade since the Second World War. The world cries out “never again” every time but has not yet managed to stop a genocide. This is not something humans can simply look back on as a mistake in history, this is not yet something from the past, it is still very much something from the present. It did not end in the 20 th century, as Darfur proves that it continues to plague our society.

This essay will be seeking to answer why the humanitarian intervention failed to prevent the genocide in Rwanda. The reason for the genocide will not be the focus point, as this essay will assume that there was no possible way to prevent it. It will focus on three main possible reasons why the intervention failed; the first being that the roots of the conflicts were too deep to simply stop it, the intervention was poorly designed and executed, and there was a lack of interest from foreign governments to intervene. The Rwandan Genocide
Before focusing on these main points, it is important to give some background on the events in Rwanda. This was the biggest genocide of the 90s, with an estimate 800,000 deaths. There were only one-hundred days separating the beginning and the end of the killings. This massacre started with a plane shot down, killing the Rwandan president.
