Valium is not the innocent "mothers little helper" of the 1950's, Valium is a serious narcotic that can be addicting. Valium is the brand name for diazepam which is a benzodiazepine in the opioids category. This simply means that Valium is a powerful depressant that slows down brain activity and triggers the reward system. Valium is prescribed for anxiety and insomnia but is very easy to abuse. Many people who are sensitive to addiction find themselves taking more than the prescribed amount of valium. This can lead to physical dependence and Valium addiction.

I have a permanent injury and have a darvocet prescription. Without thinking I took a dose of my wifes hydrocodone cough syrup for a recent cold. I asked the above question because i take random drug tests for work and I am worried that it will show up.

How does antipsychotic drug work?

Anticholinergic drugs inhibit the enzyme Acetylcholinesterase enzyme which breaks down acetylcholine. Therefore with more Acetylecholine neurotransmitters present. The cholinergic receptors such as the muscarinic and nicotinic receptors are more likely to find an Ach chemical to join with so their reaction takes place. An example of this is Neostigmine and Physostigmine which improve the ability to void-treating urinary retention or reducing intraocular pressure-treating glaucoma.

How long does an employer have to terminate you after a positive drug test?

Technically yes but it would be really stupid to do so. The reason you get suspended for a positive screen is to give you time to dry out. After three months it's more of a retaliatory move, and those are illegal.

On the other hand, he's perfectly within his rights to fire you after 3 months for failing a drug screen, if "drug test failure" is a termination offense at your company.

Do male enhancement drugs cause drug screen failure?

It depends on the drug test, but for athletic drug screening, absolutely. The most recent hi-profile case was 2008 Olympic gold medal 400m runner LaShawn Merritt, who failed drug screening in 2010 for banned substances. Though stating he hadn't taken anything knowingly or willfuly, he eventually traced it back to taking some samples of a male enhancement drug (Extenze) containing DHEA (dehydroepiandrosterone) and pregnenolone. He accepted a provisional suspension as a result, for 21 months.

Punishment for a minor possessing drugs on school grounds?

It depends on several factors. First, what state (or even city). Second, how old the minor was. Some places you can be tried as an adult, in others as a jouvinile, and still others - if you are young enough - they won't prosecute you at all. That said, selling drugs is worse than posession, so if you are 17, tried as an adult, and had a kilo on you, you may go to jail for a bit.

What happens if you get caught with weed in Canada?

Depends on the amount. <1g, they'll probably take it away, maybe give you a fine, more than that, they might arrest you, you could be charged, =<15g, you WILL be charged, you will get a criminal record, etc. I recommend carrying any weed in dimebags in shoes, socks, or underwear/inside of pants, as the police will be a lot less likely to find it. A lot of the time they won't search those places. My best advice is to be careful. Don't smoke it at school, work, places that are really public, etc. Also keep in mind that smoking weed isnt illegal-possessing it is. You technically can't get in trouble for being high. Good luck.

What are the causes of increasing crime rate?

RISING CRIME IN INDIAN CITIES

For semi-urban and rural India, cities have gradually come to signify prosperity, better quality of life, and higher income underlined by a modern lifestyle and facilities. Of all the parameters that are perceived to qualify a successful life in the present context, living in a city is perhaps one of the most significant and sought after. In their quest for the seemingly ideal life, people are increasingly migrating to cities causing an imbalance in the supply and demand scenario of basic resources due to overpopulation. According to United Nations (1999), long term projections estimate that the world's population would probably stabilize at 9.3 and 10 billion between 2150 and 2200. This increase will occur mostly in urban areas, which will grow from 2.5 billion to more than 6 billion, with nearly all of this increase occurring in the developing world. In the shorter term, it is estimated that by 2020 the world's population will reach a 57 per cent urbanization level.[1]

The imbalance of available resources is marked by the dearth of space, shelter, food and basic amenities for the rising population leading to competition, rivalry and in turn insecurity. The most appalling and stark manifestation of this insecurity is the rise in crime in cities. The biggest irony of the present times is that, cities that attract economic power and foster growth are now the hub of crime and violence which drastically debilitate development. The rising crime in Indian cities may be attributed to widening inequality, poverty, improper urban planning, ever-increasing burden on urban infrastructure, proliferation of slums and poor neighbourhoods, and the not-so-perfect judiciary and legal system of the country.

Available statistics on crimes in India depict an extremely disturbing picture of the law and order situation of the country. As per National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB), Ministry of Home Affairs, Government of India, during 2010, a total of 67,50,748 cognizable crimes comprising 22,24,831 Indian Penal Code (IPC) crimes and 45,25,917 Special & Local Laws (SLL) crimes were reported, showing an increase of 1.11% over 2009 (66,75,217). The (IPC) crime rate has increased by 3.9% over 2009[2]. Crime trends under major heads from 1953-2011 reveal that crimes such as Dacoity and Burglary/House breaking have been on the decline over a period of 59 years however, crimes such as murder, rape, kidnapping & abduction, robbery and riots have been on the rise. While, Burglary/ House breaking has declined by 37.2% (from 1,47,379 in 1953 to 92,504 in 2011) and Dacoity has declined by 23.2% (from 5,579 in 1953 to 4,285 in 2011), Murder has increased by 250.0% (from 9,802 in 1953 to 34,305 in 2011); Rape by 873.3% (from 2,487 in 1971 to 24,206 in 2011); Kidnapping & Abduction by 749.0% (from 5,261 in 1953 to 44,664 in 2011); Robbery by 193.8% (from 8,407 in 1953 to 24,700 in 2011) and Riots by 233.7% (from 20,529 in 1953 to 68,500 in 2011)[3]. It is evident that heinous and violent crimes are on the rise which is surely a cause for concern.

The police force in India is constrained by the lack of adequate manpower, equipment, technology & technical know-how and to some extent political will. According to NCRB, in 2011 the actual strength of police force was 12, 81,317 against the sanctioned strength of 16, 60,953. In terms of percentage of IPC cases, disposed by courts was mere 13.5% as opposed to the remaining 84.5% cases which were pending. Similarly, disposal of SLL cases by courts was 41.3% while remaining 57.9% cases were pending during the year 2011[4].

Urban safety and security is vital for the inflow of investment and overall development and it is time that the challenge of securing our cities is taken up in the right earnest. Some of the measures that would be crucial to achieve this are better policing, inclusive urban planning to counter the risk of propagating crimes, technological advancement in security, and socio-economic up gradation and development of overcrowded slum areas that are prone to criminal acts and violence. The need of the hour is also for every citizen of the country to be aware of their role in ensuring the safety and security of society at large.

The Conference on Homeland Security 2012: Safe and Secure City being organised by FICCI on August 7-8, 2012 at Federation House, New Delhi will attempt to find answers to several questions concerning the safety of Indian cities. It would provide an opportunity to learn from initiatives across several states of India and deliberate on how to make our cities secure. The Strengthening our Policing Contest being organised under the aegis of this programme is a unique effort to engage the youth of India in devising innovative measures for strengthening the safety of our cities.

The writing on the wall is clear - It is not enough just to realise the gravity of the situation, take a backseat and hope that we as individuals never become the target of crime or violence. On the contrary, each one of us needs to rise to the challenge and strive for a society free of crime and fear.
