Where did Dow Chemical dispose of surplus Agent Orange after 1976?

According to an article from the Detroit Free Presspublished in the 1980's, Dow Chemical disposed of several tons of Agent Orange and DDT into small landfills where two prisons now stand in Jackson, Michigan. The Agent Orange was buried in a clay lined pit beneath where the dining facility now stands at G. Robert Cotton Correctional Facility (the chronic medical and parole facility for the state), and the DDT was simply buried in an unprepared hole beneath the dairy barns (abandoned now) at the Southern Michigan Correctional Facility (that prison has been condemned twice, painted both times, and renamed with new mailing addresses).

It is important to note that these prisons are located across Cooper Street from each other and share the same water wells that also serve a portion of the city of Jackson. At the time the article was published, the state Department of Agriculture discovered in a routine inspection of the dairy barns that DDT was leaking above ground so badly the chemical was melting the soles of the inspectors' boots.

They belive that the bible is the word of God and they belive in a central docterine called the Plan of Salvation. From Healthymom - The beliefs of the church were written in a letter by Joseph Smith now called, "the Articles of Faith". There are 13 and are as follows: 1. We believe in God, the Eternal Father, and in his son, Jesus Christ, and in the Holy Ghost. (as three separate individuals) 2. We believe that men (all) will be punished for their own sins and not for Adam's transgression. 3. We believe that through the Atonement of Christ all mankind may be saved by obedience to the laws and ordinances of the Gospel. 4. We believe that the first principles and ordinances of the gospel are; first, faith in the Lord, Jesus Christ; second, repentance; third, baptism by immersion for the remission of sins; and fourth, the laying on of hands for the gift of the Holy Ghost. 5. We believe that a man must be called of God by prophesy and by the laying on of hands by those who are in authority to preach the Gospel and administer in the ordinances thereof. 6. We believe in the same organization that existed in the primitive church, namely, apostles, prophets, pastors, teachers, evangelists and so forth. 7. We believe in the gift of tongues, prophesy, revelation, visions, healing, interpretation of tongues, etc. 8. We believe the Bible to be the word of God as far as it is translated correctly. We also believe the Book of Mormon to be the word of God. 9. We believe all that God has revealed, all that he does now reveal and we believe that he will yet reveal many great and important things pertaining to the kingdom of God. 10. We believe in the literal gathering of Israel and in the restoration of the ten tribes. That Zion will be built upon the American continent, that Christ will reign personally upon the earth and that the earth will be renewed and receive it's paradisiachal glory. 11. We claim the privelege of worshipping Almighty God according to the dictates of our own conscience and allow all men the same privelege. Let them worship how, where or what they may. 12. We believe in being subject to kings, presidents, rulers and magistrates; in obeying, honoring and sustaining the law. 13. We believe in being honest, true, chaste, benevolent, virtuous and in doing good to all man; indeed we may say that we follow the admonition of Paul: We believe all things (truth), we hope all things(right), we have endured many things and we hope to be able to endure all things. If there is anything virtuous, lovely or of good report or praiseworthy we seek after these things.

What are facts about sangha?

Sangha means a community of adherents; Since you mentioned "three" facts, my guess therefore is the TRIpitaka. The Tripitaka writings of early schools of Buddhism, which were originally memorized and recited orally by disciples, fall into three general categories and are traditionally classified in three baskets (tri-pitaka). The commonest order is the following. The first category, the Vinaya Pitaka, was the code of ethics to be obeyed by the early sangha, monks and nuns. According to the scriptural account, these were invented on a day-to-day basis as the Buddha encountered various behavior problems with the monks. The second category, the Sutra Pitaka (literally "basket of threads", Pali: Sutta Pitaka), consists primarily of accounts of the Buddha's teachings. The Sutra Pitaka has numerous subdivisions: it contains more than 10,000 sutras. The third category is the Abhidharma Pitaka. This is applied to very different collections in different versions of the Tripitaka. In the Pali Canon of the Theravada there is an Abhidhamma Pitaka consisting of seven books. An Abhidharma Pitaka of the Sarvastivada school survives, also in seven books, six in Chinese and one in Tibetan. These are different books from the Pali ones though there are some common material and ideas. Another work surviving in Chinese, the Sariputrabhidharmasastra, may be all or part of another Abhidharma Pitaka. At least some other early schools of Buddhism had Abhidharma Pitakas, which are now lost.
