Animals, Youth, Violence, and The Media
Youth Violence towards people, animals, and especially children and adolecents in the schools has increased dramatically in the past few years. Research indicates that there is a significant link between violent video games and television. Though there are probably other contributing factors, many studies do support a link between violent behavior and exposure to violence in the media.

Deciduous Flowering Shrubs - Part 3
Old-fashioned plants are survivors. In most cases, they're the plants who require very little from the gardener to keep on growing, thriving and blooming. It's for the very features that are denigrated by the plant snob set that I value some of the old-fashioned plants I grow, among them is Weigela.

CROSS-CULTURAL CUSTOMS, BELIEFS LINKED TO MENTAL ILLNESS
Ready for a foray into culturally-based psychiatry and psychology? There exists a strong belief among clinicians that cultural issues indeed play a significant role in assessing mental illness. Though there are proponents of a universal law to pertain to all cultures, the inclusion of cultural factors in mental health diagnosis is great news. Exploring the client's cultural identity, customs and traditions and cross-cultural conflicts is opening up more effective strategies to help those from various cultures. Since Hispanics comprise the fastest-growing minority in America, you can learn how depression and substance abuse came to have high incidence rates among Hispanics as they attempt to assimilate American culture and society. But the greatest factor in Hispanic clients is the rapid breakdown of the family, from which they received support and felt a sense of belonging. Once the lure of American culture causes family ties to be broken, depression, anxiety and panic may result, as well as a grave sense of loss on both the part of the family and the disenfranchised Hispanic. What conflicts do you find in your life that could be linked to poor cross-cultural communication, understanding or acceptance? Use these links--as well as your own experience-- to help you understand the issues. It's a wide world after all, but none so fascinating as you learn and learn more about culture, customs, beliefs and taboos as they relate to mental illness.
