	Health and Health Care of Southeast Asian American (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		The Southeast Asian elderly appear to be at higher risk of psychological distress than younger Southeast Asians because they have fewer buffers and coping strategies to deal with their distress (Shapiro, et al., 1999; Yee, 1997; Yee and Thu, 1987).
		Southeast Asian families have been influenced by their religious and cultural philosophies, such as Buddhist beliefs surrounding karma and reincarnation with concern for ancestral spirits.

	Palmer \| U.S. Policy Toward Southeast Asia
		State capacity grew in Southeast Asia in the 1990s, but there also were profound institutional weaknesses, especially in banks and other financial institutions that were loosely regulated and vulnerable to short-term inflows of speculative capital.
		One of the interesting manifestations of this discontent with U.S. Asian policy was the split in the views of American and Southeast Asian participants in the Asia Foundation study "America's Role in Asia" released last February.
		The Southeast Asians cited the destabilizing forces of globalization in the region and the threat of American indifference to the Asian balance of power.

	AMERICAN INDIAN
		To summarize this: Iroquoian and Siouan tribes in the southeast were already joining forces because of their dwindling numbers after 1700—they told Lawson they were doing this—Tuscarora, Saponi, Meherrin, Monacan, and others were located in the mountains of western and southwestern Virginia circa 1750 and later.
		Though my focus has been on American Indians and the mixing of the various ethnic groups, I do not consider to be prejudice those individuals who reject one ethnic group or another as being part of their own particular Melungeon line.
		To further their claims to be American Indians, Chief Atkins, who was president of the Jamestown Association, involved members of all four groups in a powwow held annually Memorial Day weekend at the site of the Jamestown colony as a major tourist attraction.

	H-Net Review: Marc Frey on The Limits of Empire. The United States and Southeast Asia Since ...
		Southeast Asia came to be regarded as vital for American national security, and the containment of communism and the "search for stability" became the twin pillars on which American policy towards the region would rest.
		Thus, the increasing involvement in and commitment to Southeast Asia from 1950 on was primarily "a function of threat perception" (p.45).
		The American response to the Tet-Offensive of spring 1968 constitutes indeed, as McMahon argues, a kind of watershed in the history of U.S.-Southeast Asian relations.

	American Southeast - Ecoregions - Sierra Club
		The American Southeast looks solid on the map, but it is in fact defined by liquid: 2000 miles of the ocean's edge, hundreds of thousands of miles of rivers and streams, the diverse and ecologically critical Everglades, and almost half the remaining wetlands in the lower 48 states.
		From the Florida Keys to the mouth of the Rio Grande, the estuaries, coastal bays, mangrove swamps, and bayous support a jambalaya of fish and crustacean life, as well as endangered populations of Louisiana fl bears, red-cockaded woodpeckers, and Florida panthers--all cheek by jowl with 53 million people.
		In the Southeast (as elsewhere), toxic pollution is compounded by racism, increasing its deadly effect.
