The Vegan Society has forced Nestlé into a public climbdown over claims the company made about the role of calcium in a healthy diet.
The Advertising Standards Authority ruled that the Nestlé advertorial was misleading because it claimed that dairy products were "essential for healthy bones".
Nestlé said it had removed the advertorial for its Sveltesse yogurt drink on the AOL website after the ASA upheld a complaint from the society.
"The use of the word 'essential' implied dairy products were the only source of calcium," the ASA said in its ruling.
"Because that was not correct, we concluded that the advertorial was likely to mislead."
The Vegan Society said claims that dairy products were essential for calcium was "likely to distress and mislead" those who did not consume dairy products for ethical reasons.
"This is a real example of David triumphing over the might of Goliath," said the Vegan Society chairman, Alex Bourke.
"Nestlé used a misleading claim to promote a product when there is absolutely no evidence that dairy products are essential and we are delighted that the ASA council agrees."
The advertorial was aimed at women and entitled "Mastering Your metabolism part 3: eat well, feel great". One paragraph was headed "Dairy products" and stated "Essential for healthy bones..."
Nestlé said dairy products were commonly regarded as a primary source of calcium.
"We used the term 'essential' to highlight the importance dairy products contribute to calcium intake and healthy bones," a Nestlé spokeswoman said.
"Nestlé recognises that there are other sources of calcium and we did not intend to suggest that dairy products were the only source of calcium.
"Increasing numbers of people are adopting a vegan lifestyle - including celebrities such as Bryan Adams, Steve Jobs, Moby, Benjamin Zephaniah and many others - out of concern for their own health and that of people in the developing world, the plight of the animals and the destruction of the environment we all share."
The Vegan Society said green leafy vegetables, tofu, seeds, nuts and fortified soya milk were perfectly adequate sources of calcium.

A new Dollar General store is now open for business in Ogilvie. Construction began on the store this spring and celebrated a grand opening on Saturday, Aug. 4.
Before the opening of the Dollar General, Ogilvie residents had very limited retail options, many often driving to Milaca or Mora for groceries or basic goods. Dollar General and the city of Ogilvie first began conversations about building in Ogilvie in August 2017. The 9,100 square foot store was built on a cornfield on the south side of Highway 23, directly south of the Tower View mobile/manufactured home court.
The Dollar General chain has been expanding across America, particularly in rural areas where other such chains do not exist. Today, the company has more than 14,000 stores in 44 states.
“When choosing store locations, meeting customers’ needs is Dollar General’s top priority. The company looks for places where we can offer customers an easy and convenient shopping choice. We know convenience is a major factor in our customers’ shopping decisions as we generally serve customers within a three to five mile radius, or 10 minute drive,” said Angela Petkovic, Dollar General Media Relations.
The store will employ approximately 6-10 employees. Hours of operation are anticipated to be 8 a.m. to 10 p.m.

When it come to delicious Mediterranean cuisine I set my sights recently on a spot that has been around for 10 years in Richardson, Jasmine Cafe. I had been curious about the restaurant that I have passed many, many times in the past, particularly eye-balling the hookah lounge next door which is part of the same business. The lounge always seemed very crowded (and it is), and the restaurant equally as busy.
Owned by brother Salmen and and Loai Nameer, they both fell into the restaurant business by pure happenstance. The Nameer’s lived in Jerusalem, each attending university. Salmen decided to pick up shifts at a restaurant while working on his electronic engineering degree. Although he did graduate, his heart was really in restaurants. He enjoyed the people aspect, and he was working at one of the more famous restaurants which has been serving continuously for over 65 years; a place called Philadelphia which serves tasty Palestinian cuisine. Brother Loai soon followed in the footsteps, working his way up the ranks, beginning as dishwasher, and fell in love with his eventual post as chef.
Brother Salmen eventually made his way to the States to get his masters in engineering, and settled in Dallas working at more restaurants in the area, including Afrah in Richardson. Brother Loai followed 3 years ago when Jasmine was offered up for sale. The restaurant had lackluster sales, but it was a golden opportunity for the pair to run their own business, thus fulfilling a dream. They were able to make changes to the menu, offering the same cuisine and recipes you would find when visiting the Jerusalem restaurant. No Americanization here.
The key to offering this type of food, Salmen assures me, is to keep it fresh. “Many restaurants will make their hummus every three days, we make it all day to keep the flavors fresh,” said Salmen. This is true of all their menu items.
To grab a great taste of their offerings, it might be suggested to start with their luncheon buffet, which is glorious and filled with many meats and vegetables cooked fresh and served continuously until late afternoon. You will find most everything from their regular menu, plus more such as homestyle dishes, grilled meats and fish, a bounty of vegetables and dips, and items they decide might taste good that day.
The bread offering is not your typical cold pita cut triangularly. Instead they use a special recipe, implementing an Indian tandoor oven for this amazing crisp slab of fresh and hot to order basket of deliciousness. If for no other reason, come for that bread. It is an excellent vehicle for scooping up their baba ghanoush, or to spread thickly their house-made labni.
A few other starter items include their fried haloumi cheese that tastes like a slab of butter, which is the inherent flavor of the cheese that is given a swift saute in olive oil. The grape leaves (I am told they are not dolmas since there is no meat and is a vegetarian) are tiny and stuffed with rice and chunks of tomato, then served warm. These are two bite-sized, which I have always known that the smaller ones are the very best. The kibbe is fried, moist and delicious. The very best I have ever sampled. Same for the falafal, which often can often be dry and flavorless. Not the case at Jasmine Cafe.
The menu is extensive with many items you might not normally find at such a restaurant, such as the fish dishes, and even a kidney and liver treatment. For a robust snapshot of the offerings, we suggest the buffet (8.99) during the day, or the combination plate (serves 2-3 hungry people) for a mere 39.99. For a larger group they have a family feast that feeds up to six people for 74.99. Do the math, it’s a bargain. And for both of these all-inclusive meals the variety of dishes more than fill the table. In fact, you will be supplied with a side table to accommodate all you will be sent.
Be sure to sample the grilled meats, such as the lamb, and kabobs. The grilled chicken is spiced well and is served with a ramekin of homemade aioli for added flavor.
To complete the meal, treat yourself to their Nabilsi Knafa, which is an unusual dish of a soft, sweet cheese layer with shredded dough strips, sauteed and drizzled with a rose water syrup then sprinkled with pistachios. The Levantine cheese used is difficult to find in the States, and is sourced from Jerusalem. The dish is a bit sweet, and probably best shared, but is super addictive and best cut with a cup of the very powerful Turkish coffee, which can be purchased by the pot. Don’t forget the hookahs!
For a little holiday fun we are offering several lunch buffets good for two people. Make a comment below and we will pick out a few names at random. We will also give away a few at craveDFW’s facebook page, so be sure to add us there; the same for our Twitter account @crave_dfw.
Jasmine Cafe is located at 107 East Main in Richardson.

Missoula police detectives are investigating a possible death threat made to the Mountain Line bus service over the weekend.
A caller left the threat on the bus service's main office voicemail system on Sunday morning, according to Missoula Police spokesman Travis Welsh. The threat did not specify a driver or date as a target.
“Given the nature of the language used, it’s something we’re taking seriously,” Welsh said Thursday. “We’re trying to find out who did it.”
Mountain Line has not received any similar threats in the recent past, according to bus service community outreach coordinator Bill Pfeiffer. But Sunday's caller left two messages repeating the same threats toward bus employees.
"We always let the police know when something like that happens," Pfeiffer said. "This is the first time in quite awhile, but we take all threats seriously."


Small Ocean Epidermis Scarf
48×12 inches, 100% high-density, superfine polyester
This exquisite scarf, which is part of the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art, summons memories of ocean waves and sea creatures with tentacles reaching out for nourishment. The rich colors in the center and small bubbles at the ends were inspired by the floating sea and created using traditional Japanese dyeing techniques, and the bubbles are permanently pressed into the fabric. The lightness of this scarf is like a bubble––delicate, ethereal, and begging to be touched.

Youth gang crisis continues costing Victorian taxpayers (1.5.2018)
Written on the 4 May 2018
Tuesday 1 May 2018
Daniel Andrews' soft touch on crime and his loss of control of the youth gangs crisis continues to cost Victorian taxpayers' dearly.
Taxpayers are now spending an extra $64.8 million on youth justice since 2014 and yet the youth gang crisis has got worse, not better. That's a 90% increase in spending for a worse result.Not only is the youth gang crisis costing taxpayers almost double what was being spent in 2014, but Victorians are also picking up the tab for repairs to youth justice centres trashed in over 50 riots under Daniel Andrews.
The Andrews Labor Government has slugged taxpayers with 12 new or increased taxes some of which is now being used to fix the youth gang crisis.
Victorians can't afford another four years of Labor's mismanagement of youth justice.

In the summer of 1932, on the banks of Minnesota’s Gilead River, Odie O’Banion is an orphan confined to the Lincoln Indian Training School, a pitiless place where his lively nature earns him the superintendent’s wrath. Forced to flee after committing a terrible crime, he and his brother, Albert, their best friend, Mose, and a brokenhearted little girl named Emmy steal away in a canoe, heading for the mighty Mississippi and a place to call their own in This Tender Land by William Kent Krueger.
Over the course of one summer, these four orphans journey into the unknown and cross paths with others who are adrift, from struggling farmers and traveling faith healers to displaced families and lost souls of all kinds. Through perseverance, courage and luck, the four make their way to St Louis where Odie and Albert believe their aunt lives. What the four of them experience along their journey shapes and changes them in profound ways, as well as providing us with a glimpse of Depression era America.
The cruelty and oppression that the children faced at the Indian school is heartbreaking although the true depth of the corruption is revealed in bits and pieces. The narrow escapes and unexpected lucky breaks make this an exciting and absorbing book, all overlaid with the tension of whether Odie and Albert will be able to find their aunt.
If you are taking part in the Online Reading Challenge this year, this book is a good choice for our November theme of issues facing contemporary Native Americans.

When you hear watchdogs, the first thing that comes to mind is fierce and aggressive. However, many dogs that are known to be watchdogs are also family-friendly, loving, and caring house pets. These pets are parts of households and can also serve as esa animals with an appropriate emotional support letter received from a mental specialist.
Though most of the dogs are naturally inclined to bark when someone else approaches their living space and let the owner of the place know. A watchdog is a dog that will always alert you of a person approaching the house, even if it’s a friend or a familiar face. These watchdogs, however, can only inform the owner and not stop the intruder; that’s the job of guard dogs, which are trained specifically for that purpose.
An ESA letter dog breed may be small in size but is very feisty and is watchful at all times. It will notify the members of the family immediately if someone approaches the house or comes towards it. The breed gets its great watch abilities from being used as a hunting companion in Scottish highlands.
Make sure to keep good care of its fur and groom it from time to time, as it has a tendency to get its coat dirty. You will also need to take him on jogs and walks for it to expend its energy as it is a very active breed.
This breed, though good in its duty to watch the house, is very affectionate of its household members and especially small children, with whom it loves to play games.
Though bullmastiffs might seem to the outsider as ferocious dogs with the tenacity of a guard dog, they actually are very humble and gentle creatures. Their physical appearance makes them great watchdogs that will announce the approaching of an individual with its barks. But the bullmastiff requires an ESA letter for housing so an owner can take it with them in their house
This big muscular breed can at times get protective of its family, but never are ferocious enough to become guard dogs. With the family members of the house, bullmastiffs are very laid back and loving. They love to show affection and lie around inside the house.
The Schnauzer breed has three kinds of dogs, the Giant Schnauzer, the Standard Schnauzer, and the Miniature Schnauzer. The largest of the breed is kept both as a guard dog and also a support animal letter dog. The intensity of the schnauzer breed falls with its size. It is, therefore, the standard schnauzer is just the right amount of territorial and ferocious to be a watchdog. It makes for a great and loving household member, with a love for long walks and occasional runs. This breed will shower its housemates with love and affection.
The Great Pyrenees
The dog breed is known to be specialist livestock headers and guardians. These qualities make them suitable for household watchdog. Make sure you accustomed and familiarize the dog with the family members and friends from early on, as it can get testy around unacquainted strangers, and it is protective of the family.
You will find the Pyrenees to be a great indoor animal, who likes to stay quietly inside and doesn’t ask for much attention. However, it does require exercise and long walks, which can be a great way to get yourself to go outside.
The ESA registration is must for every pet however if you didn't get a chance to get an emotional support dog certification, then you can avail it from the real ESA letter website
American Eskimo Dog
Though small in size, this furry animal is quick-minded and attentive at all times. It’s an alert dog that has got a sharp bark, which makes it a good watchdog. You will find this dog to be very eager to please you and will burst with energy if you complement its eagerness. It will be content with exercise and games at home or in your backyard, but it is important for you to take it out on walks too.

The music was created with the aim to create a sense of dread and was inspired by the industrial band Throbbing Gristle. The reasoning behind creating a sinister feeling was to capture the vulnerability of being a women walking the streets and the conflicting feelings of being objectified and desiring sex while feeling the affects of ageing. Freya is inspired by the origin of her name- Freyja the Norse goddess- as a sense of empowerment while being a solitary woman. This issue is important as female desire is very overlooked despite there being a whole cultural phenomenon around unfulfilled male desire.

Ethereum is the second-largest cryptocurrency on this planet by a major margin, falling solely behind Bitcoin. It was created in 2015 by the sensible visionary Vitalik Buterin and some different blockchain specialists together with Charles Hoskinson (the creator of Cardano) and Gavin Wooden. Ethereum was the primary general-purpose blockchain, utilizing good contracts.
Good contracts are contracts coded into the blockchain that execute mechanically when predetermined circumstances are met. They allow new utilities corresponding to NFTs and decentralized finance (DeFi) platforms. DeFi platforms allow you to lend, borrow and stake for curiosity with out going by means of conventional finance channels. This innovation helped launch Ethereum and make it the most well-liked general-purpose blockchain by a protracted shot regardless of the makes an attempt of many opponents.
Despite the fact that Ethereum is so massive, it may be laborious to foretell its future worth actions. Nevertheless, Ethereum on-chain buying and selling indicators may be helpful to assist inform your buying and selling choices. They don’t seem to be excellent, however they are often helpful in forming educated guesses, particularly within the medium and long run.
Ethereum On-Chain Buying and selling Alerts Evaluation
Holders Making Cash at Present Costs
The Holders Making Cash at Present Costs metric isn’t used as a lot correctly, probably as a result of it isn’t the best to calculate utilizing a worth graph. IntoTheBlock takes each pockets with Ethereum in it, seems at every commerce and calculates the pockets’s Ethereum value foundation. Then it finds the chances of wallets with a price foundation above, at and beneath the present worth.
Ethereum has among the best values on this metric and beats out Bitcoin with a big proportion of wallets in revenue. That is seemingly a really bullish buying and selling sign as a result of it looks as if most paper arms holders — merchants who promote on the first signal of hassle — have already closed their positions.
Focus by Giant Holders
Focus by Giant Holders is a helpful buying and selling sign that isn’t used sufficient by Ethereum merchants. It’s calculated by including up all of the Ethereum holdings in massive wallets that maintain 0.1% or extra of the coin’s circulating provide. Ethereum has a circulating provide of about 122.1 million cash. Which means that the holdings of any pockets holding about 122,100 ETH (price about $180 million) are counted as massive holders on this metric. Ethereum’s focus by massive holders is surprisingly massive for such an enormous cryptocurrency. If the highest Ethereum holders had been to determine to promote, the value would undergo dramatically. Nevertheless, many different tokens are a lot worse. For instance, Shiba Inu’s focus by massive holders is about twice as excessive as Ethereum’s.
Worth Correlation With Bitcoin
Despite the fact that Ethereum has began to place up a combat for the highest spot, Bitcoin remains to be the largest crypto by a big margin. Each fluctuation within the worth of Bitcoin impacts each cryptocurrency (aside from some stablecoins like USDT or USDC) however the diploma of this correlation can differ over time and from crypto to crypto. Ethereum is closely correlated with Bitcoin although it’s so massive by itself. It’s much less correlated than many different altcoins, corresponding to FTT, which is a rounding error away from a 100% correlation.
Holder’s Composition by Time Held
The Holder’s Composition by Time Held buying and selling sign is straightforward. IntoTheBlock seems at each pockets holding Ethereum and averages the period of time every pockets has been holding the coin. Typically, the longer buyers maintain a token, the higher. It typically implies that most buyers have a number of conviction within the token. Ethereum’s holders appear to be bullish on their investments with greater than 60% of wallets holding it for greater than 1 yr.
Trade Inflows and Outflows
Trade Inflows and Outflows are vital buying and selling indicators. Centralized cryptocurrency exchanges are the one crypto off ramps to fiat currencies (USD, EUR, GBP). This obtrusive subject blocks the total decentralization of the crypto house, nevertheless it permits merchants to trace the movement of cryptos on and off the exchanges. A web constructive movement of crypto right into a centralized trade is a bearish sign as a result of it means extra individuals are on the brink of promote their tokens for fiat. When the outflow of crypto from centralized exchanges is larger than the influx, this bullish sign implies that extra crypto is being saved away from fiat offramps.
Is Now a Good Time to Purchase Ethereum?
Now could also be a good time to purchase Ethereum, however it’s not possible to make sure. Ethereum, together with the remainder of the cryptocurrency market, remains to be down closely from geopolitical crises of 2022 and rate of interest hikes. Now could also be a implausible time to select up Ethereum and different cryptos at a reduction, however there may very well be additional draw back as nicely. The crypto market has traditionally been comparatively predictable within the long-term with a cycle of clear bull and bear phases roughly coinciding with Bitcoin halvings.
The best way to Purchase Ethereum?
As a result of Ethereum is such a big and well-liked cryptocurrency, it is among the best to purchase. Ethereum buying and selling is supported by most of the finest crypto buying and selling platforms together with eToro, Robinhood and Webull. Earlier than you can begin buying and selling Ethereum or different cryptos, that you must confirm your identification with the trade. This course of typically requires you to offer your deal with, Social Safety quantity and an image of your driver’s license (or different legitimate ID). As quickly as your identification is verified, you may deposit fiat foreign money or one other crypto and purchase Ethereum.
This advert promotes digital cryptocurrency investing inside the EU (by eToro Europe Ltd. and eToro UK Ltd.) and USA (by eToro USA LLC); which is extremely risky, unregulated in most EU international locations, no EU protections and never supervised by the EU regulatory framework. Investments are topic to market threat, together with the lack of principal.
How Does Ethereum Match Into the Greater Image?
Ethereum is a monolith within the crypto house and should even rival the significance of Bitcoin comparatively quickly. Bitcoin remains to be the most important crypto and is extra well-known than Ethereum; nevertheless, it doesn’t have the identical utility. Ethereum’s general-purpose nature permits a lot of the innovation within the crypto business right now and is a big a part of its growing adoption. Ethereum could also be in a little bit of a stoop after the entire market crashed this yr, nevertheless it looks as if it has potential and will overthrow Bitcoin as the highest crypto finally.

Trauma can destroy the foundation we depend on
“I remember the moment I realized, deep down in my bones, that nobody was going to save me,” Adam told me.
This Vietnam veteran grew up in a large, loving family in a small Midwestern town where everybody knew and also looked out for each other. There was no crime of consequence, no bad parts of town and the police carried nothing more than a night stick.
He grew up safe, secure and optimistic. In his world, somehow things just always worked out and, he surmised at a young age, always would. But, as it turned out, the world had something different to say about that.
Selected in the first military draft lottery of the Vietnam era, he wound up a grunt in an infantry platoon sent to a forward area. All was relatively quiet for a time, and he made close friends among his comrades, none more so than Jake, a farm boy from Nebraska and a kindred spirit.
War is no friend to optimism, but despite what he imagined they were in for and the ever-present risks to life and limb, he just knew it was going to be all right. Nothing in his life had ever proven otherwise, and experience is a powerful teacher.
“It was supposed to be a routine patrol,” Adam continued, his eyes seeing something mine never had. “I was at the tail end when they ambushed us. We laid into them as best we could and managed to drive them off, but not soon enough.”
He looked away. “Jake was down, and when I got to him … well, I held him while the medic did what he could, but he bled out. He was a good soldier and a good friend.”
“And that’s when you realized,” I suggested.
“Yes,” he said, meeting my eyes once more, his countenance a blend of grief and indignation. “I realized there’s nobody watching over us and there’s no such thing as control over our lives. It’s just a crap shoot out there.”

Many who grow up in gnarly circumstances take a more jaundiced view of life than folks like Adam. When they encounter tragedy and loss it’s just more of the same and, consequently, not so great a shock. But, for those who’ve lived a blessed existence only to experience tragedy and trauma, the precipitous fall from “Everything will be all right” creates an existential crisis that shakes them to the core.
“You can call it PTSD or whatever you like,” Adam continued. “But for me, I just stopped believing in the goodness of life. I went from optimist to cynic in the blink of an eye.”
When, through one’s experiences, the world suddenly morphs from safe to dangerous, from benevolent to malicious, one’s spiritual tectonic plates rupture. An existential earthquake rocks the soul. Those of you visited by great loss, trauma and tragedy know of what I speak.
Over the years, Adam has drawn what he can from psychotherapy and other healing arts, but there are no panaceas for him or those in similar straits.
“I take what comfort there is in nature, music, doing some good and from my family, but that day changed my world forever,” Adam concluded.
Life is full of points of no return. But, sometimes, what we leave behind is the existential foundation we thought we could always stand on.

WASHINGTON – The U.S. Army is looking for the most innovative small business solutions in Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning and Autonomy that will lead to more informed Army decision-making, facilitate autonomous operations, and increase the speed and scale of military action.
The Army Applied Small Business Innovation Research program released one Direct to Phase II contract opportunity with awards up to $1.7M and 18 months in duration and two Phase I contract opportunities with awards up to $250K and six months in duration. These new topics include:
· Armament System Artificial Intelligence Data Logger and Architecture: Collect and enable real-time transmission and archival of armaments usage data across all platforms for current and future AI developments.
· Artificial Intelligence for Additive Manufacturing Part Selection: Develop an AI capability that analyzes technical data information and assesses the candidacy of a component for additive manufacturing.
· Self-Contained Personnel Safety Systems for People in and around Autonomous Vehicles: Develop a self-contained system for autonomous vehicles.
This is the first set of opportunities in which one of the topics was curated under the Army Applied SBIR program’s Autonomy Transition Broker Team. Comprised of Army Soldiers, researchers, technologists and acquisition officers, the Transition Broker Teams use technology scouting to identify emerging capabilities from industry that can enhance current or future Army programs. The program has established teams for artificial Intelligence and machine learning, autonomy, climate change and energy resiliency, system monitoring and radar targeting sensors, and immersive and wearable technology.
“The Transition Broker Teams work to maximize opportunities for the transfer of cutting-edge technology to overcome Army challenges confronted by the Soldier,” said Dr. Matt Willis, director, Army Prize Competitions and Army Applied SBIR Program, in the Office of the Assistant Secretary of the Army for Acquisition, Logistics and Technology (ASA(ALT)). “The Autonomy team will focus on the various software and hardware components of autonomous systems, review new areas of technology as they arise, and identify whether they enhance and expedite Army programs and enable commercialization opportunities for small businesses.”
Qualified small businesses can now submit proposals through March 3 at noon EST. Full proposal packages must be submitted through the DSIP Portal. Additional information, including eligibility information and how to apply, can be found on the Army SBIR|STTR website.
“Small businesses are an excellent choice to execute innovative ideas for Army technical solutions,” said Bishoy Said, mechanical engineer, DEVCOM Armaments Center and technical point of contact for one of the topics. “A larger company may find it more difficult to produce a tailored or customized one-time product, whereas a smaller company may quickly pivot to execute with less barriers. Technologies developed under the topic, ‘Artificial Intelligence for Additive Manufacturing Part Selection,’ could provide a solution to the multi-faceted problem in the Army to increase AM capabilities. But to do this we need to identify AM part candidates, which takes extensive man hours to evaluate. However, if the process is automated and improved, we will be able to identify more high-value parts, while saving time and money.”
To capitalize on small-business innovation and respond to important Department of Defense and Army modernization and sustainment needs, the Army Applied SBIR program releases contract opportunities on an ad hoc, rolling basis. This flexibility and timeliness in responding to the Army’s emerging technology needs seeks to maximize the initial cash-flow for small businesses while minimizing the time to contract.
“Utilizing innovative small businesses allows the Army to solve complex problems by finding multiple solutions,” said Dr. Ralph Tillinghast, lab director, DEVCOM Armaments Center and TPOC. “Overall, the effort lays the foundation to ensure armament platform data is being strategically collected to impact the full acquisition lifecycle from training, situational awareness, battlefield decisions, research and development optimization, logistics and maintenance.”

NEW YORK (AP) — Bernard Madoff’s longtime accountant was arrested on fraud charges Wednesday, accused of aiding the man who has admitted cheating thousands of investors out of billions of dollars in the past two decades.
The charges against David Friehling, 49, come as federal authorities turn their attention to those who they believe helped Madoff fool 4,800 investors into thinking that their longtime investments were growing comfortably each year. Friehling is the first person to be arrested since the Madoff scandal broke three months ago.
Friehling ran an accounting office in a nondescript suburban building north of New York City, and quickly drew scrutiny. Experts in accounting said it would be preposterous for such a tiny firm to audit properly an operation the size of Madoff’s.
He had served as Madoff’s auditor from 1991 through 2008 while he worked as the sole practitioner at Friehling & Horowitz. He was paid a tidy sum by Madoff: Prosecutors said he made between $12,000 and $14,500 a month from 2004 to 2007. That works out to $144,000 to $174,000 a year.
Friehling faces up to 105 years in prison if he is convicted. He is charged with securities fraud, aiding and abetting investment adviser fraud and four counts of filing false audit reports with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
Friehling’s lawyer, Andrew Lankler, did not immediately return a phone call Wednesday. The accountant had a court appearance Wednesday afternoon in federal court.
Acting U.S. Attorney Lev L. Dassin said in a release that Friehling is not charged with knowing about Madoff’s Ponzi scheme.
However, Dassin said: “Mr. Friehling’s deception helped foster the illusion that Mr. Madoff legitimately invested his clients’ money.”
In a Ponzi scheme, early investors are paid with money raised from later investors.
The SEC said Friehling did not meaningfully audit Madoff’s business or confirm that securities purportedly held by Madoff’s company on behalf of its customers even existed.
The SEC said Friehling instead pretended to conduct minimal audit procedures of certain accounts to make it seem he was conducting an audit and then failed to document his purported findings and conclusions as he was required to do.
The agency said if Friehling had done his job, Madoff’s financial statements would have shown his company owed tens of billions of dollars to his customers and was insolvent.

Can BetterHelp substitute for standard face-to-face therapy? Betterhelp Google Play Store…
The professionals who overcome are certified and credentialed therapists who were accredited by their state’s board to provide therapy However, while the service might have similar benefits, it’s not capable of alternativing to standard face-to-face treatment in every case. Please note that your service provider will not have the ability to make any official medical diagnosis, to satisfy any court order or recommend medication.
what going to a therapist is actually like subtitle or subtext why you should go to a therapist now of course there is are some barriers to entry maybe you need to spend for a therapist or possibly you need to go on a long waiting list to go to a therapist however i expect i’ll discuss treatment in a variety of ways individually therapy and group treatment.
that number is two i have actually simply counted it see this little rabbit guy whose ears has made her fingers and faces made from hand that’s how i work it out one two private treatment group therapy lots of group therapy free of charge we don’t have that economic barrier the majority of therapy i’ve been fortunate enough to have especially as an adult given that i’ve been making money although in the early part of my life i was getting some complimentary treatment where uh it is paid for however what i inform you is this a number of us do not deal with the deep motivations and worries that are secretly governing our lives i am fond of stating when speaking about the 12-step program that i use to which i have actually been provided and taught to aid with my own psychological health defects and failings that you do not make a choice between having a program and not having a program you choose between a conscious program and an unconscious program if you do not have a mindful program you will definitely have an unconscious program your decisions and actions will be certainly affected by the programming conditioning that you received throughout your life as a result of trauma education familial
circumstances and if you are unaware if you are not engaged in a journey of understanding and discovery then these will be the dominant forces in the actions that you take even something as basic as the kind of partners that you choose how you behave in a relationship your capability to remain in a relationship be faithful your attitude towards self-care grooming nutrition all of this is a form of programs now my belief is that your programming can be repaired and modified we are to a degree of course a job item of biology however also of our cultural conditioning the cultural conditioning component we can purchase and the biology aspect we can rather benefit from in a relationship with a therapist i’ll talk about a few of the therapists i’ve had
I registered. The length of time up until I’m matched with a therapist?
This process can take a few hours or a couple of days, depending on therapist schedule. Don’t fret, your membership period begins when you are matched with a therapist.
How will I communicate with my therapist?
You can get treatment in 4 ways:
Exchanging messages with your therapist
Chatting live with your therapist
Speaking over the phone with your therapist
Video conferencing with your therapist
You can use different methods at different times as you want, based on your needs, availability, and convenience.
How does messaging work?
How will I pay for my BetterHelp membership?
As soon as you are matched to a therapist, you and your therapist will get a dedicated “room”, which will be your personal and protected location to interact. In this room, you will discuss yourself, the things going on in your life, ask concerns and go over the problems that difficulty you. Your therapist will then read your messages, and react with concerns, feedback, insights, and guidance.
You can exchange messages with your therapist at any time, from anywhere, utilizing any Internet-connected gadget. You will get a notification by e-mail when the therapist has actually sent you a message.
How do live chat sessions work?
How do live phone sessions work?
How do live video sessions work?
Can I go back and check out the therapist’s previous messages?
The length of time can I use BetterHelp?
This depends on your requirements and differs a lot from one person to another. Some people feel they get the majority of the value after simply a few weeks, while others prefer to adhere to the program for an extended time period. This is completely up to you.
Is Betterhelp web available for handicapped users?

At the border I changed into my man tights. Normally this would mean the cold is something barbaric but I don't think Jordan knows a lot about cold weather. It is simply a case of covering my knees as this is a predominantly Muslim country. Of course all my clothes have at least one hole in them. Unfortunately my man tights have a hole right on the knee. Kind of defeats the purpose. Progress in Jordan was initially slow. Cycling through a bustling market town I kept getting pulled over, asked where I was from and invited in for tea. I like the way everyone says 'Welcome' here instead of 'Hello'. It is an excellent word and I would hear it 50 times a day throughout my time in the country. I took a road up into the mountains. The climb was long but with great views out across the bare hills of Jordan. I made things difficult for myself taking steep back roads in search of water but eventually found a well and camped in a rare clump of trees on the side of a mountain.
Last day of the decade and the end of an era. My Manchester United shorts finally bit the dust. They have more holes in them than, well, the United defence. Jordan is not the ideal place to pick up a replacement pair of shorts as no one wears any. The cycle into Amman was horrendous but I wasn't expecting anything else. They say cycling is good for you but I swallowed so much black smoke today it must have taken years off my life. The only way to get through it was to embrace the chaos and smile at everyone who cut me up. I'm very good at it to begin with but I could feel my patience beginning to wane. I found an outdoor equipment shop and got practical by buying a pair of shorts with zip pockets. Now I can cycle in a t-shirt and keep my map/phone handy. This is progress. I felt a little sad to get rid of my United shorts. They have been with me for over 30 countries. They have had more hotel sink washes than you have had hot dinners. For a minute I thought about posting them home but I realised that harbouring an emotional attachment to a pair of shorts was somewhat pathetic. No time to get superstitious about it either. We've been rubbish the entire time I've had them. I thought binning them would be sacrilege so I gave them to a kid who looked less than impressed. Cycled out of Amman and the day, month, year, decade ended well with a glorious camp-spot looking down on the rift valley beneath Mount Nebo. There was a time when my new years eve would not have begun at 9pm. This year I was fast asleep by 9pm.
First day of the decade and I hit an all time low. 410m below sea level to be exact. I was up at dawn to greet the new year and climbed up to Mount Nebo before enjoying a thrilling descent down to the Dead Sea. I knew I had started the day at 500m above sea level and felt that the descent was a lot longer. I was somewhat surprised though when the map on my phone said I was over 380m below sea level. Especially as I was looking down at the Dead Sea. The Dead Sea though is really a salt lake. It has a single source, the Jordan River, and is not connected to the ocean. I wondered if I had ever been to such a low altitude and got my answer a few minutes later when I saw a sign to the lowest point on earth. I was a little confused when I got to the official marker to find it 20m up a slope. The cycle along the Dead Sea was tremendous under a clear blue sky. It gets its name because of the high salinity which prevent fish and aquatic plants from living in it. I made excellent progress thanks to the abundance of oxygen at such a low altitude, the easy terrain, and a gentle tailwind. I hit the climb back into the mountains at the end of the day but after 130km my legs soon began to wobble. I didn't even make it to sea level.
I didn't sleep particularly well. A beautiful place to camp in the barren desert mountains. At sunset you can see a thousand shades or orange. Home to a lot of wild dogs though and one found me and yapped at me aggressively for about an hour in the middle of the night. Eventually he sloped off but I imagined he'd gone to fetch his mates and couldn't get back to sleep. The climb in the morning was fantastic. Photo opportunities at every bend. 20km at an average of 9% it was hard going but this was nothing compared to the pack of wild dogs I encountered half way up. A couple of oncoming vehicles had wound down their windows when they passed me, pointed up the road and said something in Arabic. I wondered what it could be and soon found out. Dogs are a common nuisance cycle touring but this was the hairiest moment I have ever faced. There were about 50 of them. This was not your normal dog encounter. They weren’t territorial. They were stray dogs, wild and hungry, and there were a lot of them. I approached them on a rare flat section and was able to speed through gesticulating wildly to keep them at bay but then the road turned uphill and I was surrounded. I was in what’s known as a spot of bother. I had some stones handy, I chucked a couple, but they kept coming back. The more dogs in a pack the more confident they are. I had never seen so many together. Fortunately I guy in a truck came downhill, saw my predicament, stopped in the middle of the road and started honking his horn. The dogs attention was diverted and I was able to inch away. A few followed but now that there was only a handful of them their aggression subsided. I would like to thank that truck driver but I never got the chance. It was the kind of road where a car would come along every minute or two but a couple of minutes is a long time when you’ve got a pack of wild dogs baying for your flesh. After that I enjoyed the rest of the climb grateful to still be in one piece. Made it to a high altitude plateau with panoramic views before descending to Wadi Musa. Otherwise known as Petra. One of the seven wonders of the world. Slept in a bed!
A rare spot of tourism today. Up at dawn once again. Easy when you are camping. Difficult when you wake up in a bed but I needed every minute of the day. Seeing the sites of Petra is a 4 hour walk and then I needed enough time to cycle 70km to get up and over a pass and down to a height comfortable for sleeping. It is extremely cold at night here when up at altitude. I baulked at the entrance fee (£60) but Petra did not disappoint. You could easily spend a couple of days walking around the ruins half hidden in the mountains. Not only is the place of great historical significance but the scenery is incredible with it's red desert landscape and silent canyons. A great place to hike around and take it all in. The money shot is the Treasury. Where Indiana Jones entered in search of the Holy Grail. There's loads more to see though. It must have been good. I've never taken so many photos. Most of the tourists don't bother to lower their arms. Happily snapping the whole time. Eventually dragged myself off and got back on my bike and headed up to a windy pass. Cycled though a wind turbine tunnel. Some people think they are an eyesore. I think they are a graceful addition to the landscape. When they are moving that is. They look daft stood still. The views out over the rift valley were spectacular and I eventually descended below 1000m just as the sun was going down. Camped in the desert. Wasn't expecting company but a van went passed, spluttered to a standstill and two Jordanians got out and explained they had run out of diesel. They phoned a friend to bring some, made a fire, they bought out the whiskey, I bought out the biscuits and we spent an interesting hour trying to have a conversation with no mutual language to fall back on.
This morning I headed to Wadi Rum, a valley cut into sandstone and granite rock, in the south of Jordan. It could have been an easy day if I had taken the road but for some inexplicable reason I decided it would be fun to take a short cut across the desert. Short cut turned into long push. Beautiful place to be, out alone in the desert, making my way in between small sandstone mountains. Wonderfully quiet. Dragging your bike through sand however soon gets annoying. I must have got on and off my bike about 50 times. Cycle a bit, push a bit, cycle a bit, drag a bit. 20km took 5 hours and had me seriously questioning my decision making skills. The only person I saw was a guy on a camel who invited me into his nearby shack for tea. In exchange for tea, bread and apples I connected to his phone Wi-Fi and registered his shack as a campsite on booking.com. He seemed happy and implied that God must have sent me off into the desert to find him. Maybe he did. Eventually found a road and cycled into the Wadi Rum national park. A climbers paradise but not a cyclists. More dragging through sand until it started to rain and the wind picked up. I found a quiet place to camp sheltered behind a rock.
When you wake up in the mountains fully clothed in your sleeping bag with a storm raging outside you don't expect to be swimming in the sea a few hours later. The temperature dropped below freezing over night but the storm soon died down and I got on my way. Left Wadi Rum, sped along the valley and dropped down out of the mountains for my first sighting of the Red Sea at Aqaba. Bought a ticket for the ferry across the sea to Egypt that night. I didn't have a lot to do so I found a little beach along the coast and went for a dip. More to get clean than to cool off. Out in the sea I could see Israel, Jordan and Egypt. Saudi Arabia was about 20km along the coast. Added a bit of red to the Red Sea by cutting my knee on some lovely looking coral. Ridiculous time for a 2 hour ferry. Departs at 11pm. Arrives at 1am. Security was tight at the Egyptian port of Nuweiba. I had simply planned to cycle a little way along the coast in the middle of the night, pitch my tent somewhere and catch whatever sleep I could. Immigration insisted on the name of the hotel I was staying at. I made one up. This was sufficient but then the police insisted on escorting me to the hotel that didn't exist. So off we went in search of it. Needless to say we never found it. I managed to persuade them to let me camp on the grounds of a resort. The resort was fine with this. I gave them a few Egyptian pounds. Pitched my tent at 3 in the morning and finally got my head down. An hour later there was an earthquake.

With SC voting last Saturday and NC yesterday, we are FINALLY free of political ads, at least until the summer. And that is certainly reason to celebrate here.
Funny how Steyers and Bloomberg tried to sell themselves as economic geniuses smarter than Trump when their campaigns just burned money and never got any traction. Meanwhile Trump went through the 2016 election with minimal spending.
Sean Davis @seanmdav
If only Bloomberg had hired Russians to buy $100,000 in barely literate Facebook ads, instead of spending $700 MILLION, he’d be president now. That’s what the media have told us for 3+ years.

So now they're left with a mentally challenged old white guy ....and Joe Biden.
I wouldn't mind Bernie as a candidate as I think crushing him in the general would be helpful for the country. having said that I didn't vote for him. The GOP has a closed primary in CA so as a libertarian (less junk mail begging for money) I had to write Trump in on my ballot.
[Free Beacon] Former DNC chairwoman Donna Brazile had harsh words for RNC chairwoman Ronna McDaniel, who said Democratic superdelegates may try to prevent Sen. Bernie Sanders (I., Vt.) from being the party's presidential nominee.
"Ronna, go to hell," Brazile said on America's Newsroom, startling anchors Ed Henry and Sandra Smith. "No, go to hell, I'm tired of it, Ed. We are not trying to prevent anyone from becoming the nominee. If you have the delegates and win, you will win."
"This notion that somehow or another Democrats are out there trying to put hurdles or roadblocks before one candidate, that's stupid," Brazile said. She added that Republicans are scared President Donald Trump will lose his reelection bid in November.
"Donna, with all due respect we had [McDaniel] on to talk about what she sees happening here in the same way we ask you to," Smith said.
Biden also won Mass. and (probably) Maine.
And I guess Texas, too.

^ Those are the people (outside of VT's shitty little hippie/red neck enclaves) who know Bernie and Fauxcahontas best. Familiarity, contempt... No wonder the good people of MA and ME rejected both of those ridiculous morons.
As to Bernie he seems to have become the La Raza / Chicano candidate. Yet another reason to end the scourge of Mexican / C. American low-end mass immigration.
Indeed. Democrats created a monster and now they don't know if they can control it. Yesterday's results must be encouraging for them but, as the demographics continue change, it will become more and more difficult.

Biden's success has zip to do with Bloomberg's or anyone's money.
That's not what I said. I predicted that Biden would prevail and THEN campaign with Bloomberg's money.
Which is the worst case scenario for Trump. Biden is a flawed candidate, but his flaws are well known and already "priced in".
All he needs now is a convincing VP. My bet is on Klobuchar.

And I guess Texas, too.
A number of voters with whom I've spoken selected Biden for the run-up and intend to vote Trump in the final.
Of course a lot can still happen. But with Bloomberg's money machine and ground game behind him, Biden can afford to stay above the fray.
Every attack Team Trump may launch against him can be countered tenfold now. Bloomberg wants to see Trump gone.
Many people think Bloomberg wasted his money. Trust me, he didn't. He's reported to have added 2.5 bn dollars to his wealth in the last 12 months.
It's not over yet, of course. But my money would be on Biden.

Fear and loathing of Trump should not substitute for cold eyes analysis.
If I had Bloomie's money I would not waste it on Biden's third (!) run for presidency. He was a weak candidate the first two times; he's a lame and withered version of his earlier self.
Still worse: the American people have only just begun to learn about the massive, endemic, billion $$$ corruption of Biden's brother. And then there's his son.
Every single charge brought against Trump is actually more true of Biden: weird and erratic? Check. Flaky? Check. Using the power of his office to suborn corrupt interventions by foreign prosecutors to benefit a family member? Check. War profiteering on behalf of his brother? Check.
$500 million would be better spent betting on Trump's re-election.
Hillary spent $1.2 billion in 2016 (campaign + PACs), Trump spent $650 million. How did that turn out for her?
This time Trump will likely raise $2 billion if needed so Bloomberg's money doesn't look all that scary, especially when spent on behalf of a corrupt blowhard fast entering senility.
In addition, Trump now has a successful record, has strip searched, anally probed and verified to be squeaky clean, while Biden has ... well he'll always have Hunter.

Hunter's a piker compared to Biden's brother James. War profiteer hired specifically to win, and given one-third of the profits from, a $1.5 BILLION Iraq reconstruction housing contract awarded while Biden was Zero's point man on Iraq in 2010.
A large chunk of a billion and a half.
For "reconstruction" in the Iraq shithole.
To James Biden, VP Joe's brother.
Biden has not even begun to face serious criticism, let alone fierce attacks.
If he's struggling to remain calm and coherent now, there is no way he'll survive the firefight he will be in following the convention.
[WASHINGTONEXAMINER] West Virginia Gov. Jim Justice signed legislation Monday to punish doctors who do not aid a baby born after an attempted child sacrifice abortion.
The Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act easily passed both bodies of West Virginia’s Republican-dominated legislature this month. The bill was largely a symbolic gesture since existing laws already prohibit doctors from withholding medical help in such cases of failed child sacrifice abortions.
"I stand for life ‐ in all cases, at all times," Justice said at the Monday signing ceremony. It is "unbelievable, to tell you the truth, that we have to do such a thing."
The new law allows the state medical board to revoke the license of any doctor who does not care for a baby born after an attempted child sacrifice abortion. Abortions in West Virginia are illegal after 20 weeks gestation, and the state’s lone child sacrifice abortion clinic in Charleston refuses to perform an child sacrifice abortion later than 16 weeks.
Democrats in the West Virginia legislature criticized the bill as redundant and an answer to a problem that does not exist. Just like Voting Fraud
"A child born alive who would somehow be killed ‐ that would be murder. It would clearly be murder. There's nobody doing that, and if they do do it, they're in jail," Democratic Sen. Mike Romano of Harrison County said.

[NYPOST] A top adviser to Rep. Alexandria Boom Boom Ocasio-Cortez Dem represntative from da Bronx in Noo Yawk and leader of the Mean Girl Caucus in Congress. One of the Great Minds of the 21st Century, she is known as much for her innaleck as for her dance moves. She is all in favor of socialism, even though she's fuzzy on the details... has abruptly left her campaign, The Post has learned.
The freshman politician’s campaign front man, Corbin Trent, revealed his surprise departure when a news hound contacted him for comment on Sunday.
His affiliation with AOC was also scrubbed from his twitter account.
Trent referred questions to AOC’s campaign manager Rebecca Rodriguez, who declined comment.
He was part of AOC’s brain trust when she shocked the political world by ousting ex-Rep. and then-Queens Democratic Party leader Joe Crowley in the 2018 Democratic Party, becoming the youngest woman elected to Congress.
AOC, a democratic socialist, has emerged as one of the most powerful voices on the political left in the US. She is heavily favored to win re-election later this year in the 14th congressional district covering parts of The Bronx and Queens.
Trent, 31, is a co-founder of Justice Democrats, the progressive political action committee that recruited and backed Ocasio-Cortez’s successful insurgency that toppled Crowley and backs other leftist primary challengers against incumbents deemed too tied to the status quo and monied interests.
Corbin, who declined comment on his departure, on Tuesday said he’s now a paid staffer on Bernie Sanders’ presidential campaign, pitching in with communications and other strategic work. AOC also is a Sanders booster.
He also worked on Bernie Sanders’ 2016 campaign for president.

Warren (D-Mass.), who currently holds a mere eight delegates after disappointing finishes in early states, will continue collecting what she hopes will be enough delegates to remain competitive in the case of a contested Democratic National Convention in Milwaukee, as her campaign manager, Roger Lau, outlined in a memo Sunday.
"Our internal projections continue to show Elizabeth winning delegates in nearly every state in play on Super Tuesday, and in a strong position to earn a sizable delegate haul coming out of the night," Lau wrote in the memo, published on Medium.
In mid-February, Lau wrote in a different memo that he expected Warren to take home delegates in all but one Super Tuesday state.
"Warren is poised to finish in the top two in over half of Super Tuesday states (eight of 14), in the top three in all of them, and is on pace to pick up at-large statewide delegates in all but one," he wrote.

He was elected to Congress in 2012 after defeating eight-term incumbent Silvestre Reyes in the Democratic primary. He declined to seek re-election in 2018, instead running for the Senate against Republican Ted Cruz, running a campaign that drew national attention because of his skateboarding skills.

An entertaining and thought-provoking exploration of economic theories that have been both widely accepted and largely wrong … I devoured it in a couple of sittings.
Tom discusses getting shouted at by Donald Trump, war zone reporting and applying investigative reporting tools to economics.
I couldn’t put it down. A thorough and nuanced examination of the evolution of supply side economics and the debates we had around how to put the theory into practice. I loved it.
Wonderful book very lively read…
Tom discusses Free Lunches, Labour market regulation and economic myths with RSA Chief Executive (who moonlights as the government’s Director of Labour Market Enforcement and was previously head of policy for PM Tony Blair), Matthew Taylor.
Market fundamentalism has done a grave disservice to society, promising fixes to the world’s problems based on a naive application of a narrow set of principles. In this engaging and thoughtful book, Tom Bergin lays bare the contradictions with this simplistic form of economic thinking. It’s an essential read to understand where economics has erred—and how it can do better.
A brilliant tour de force exposing the limitations of economic theories. Bergin punctures many accepted myths and – with care and rigour – demonstrates how much accepted economic orthodoxy is based on ideology and not reality. A very readable and well-researched book that we all should read.
It took just over a year for the story of BP’s Gulf of Mexico oil spill to wash up in a tide of new books on the disaster. Of all the accounts so far, Reuters oil writer Tom Bergin provides the most compelling look at how BP found itself with President Barack Obama’s boot on its throat and two-thirds of its market value evaporating.
Bergin…. has provided the best assessment yet of how the accident was rooted in the nature of BP.
A gripping story of corporate hubris and incompetence.
A robust read on the combustible history of big oil.
If you want to know why BP got itself into such a mess before and after Deepwater Horizon, Spills and Spin is an excellent and reliable account.
As much page-turning thriller as it is an historical account. Bergin neatly weaves company history into the drama of the days and weeks following the worst oil spill in history and keeps you gripped at every stage.
Bergin’s book is accessible, lively and utterly compelling…
This is an account of that sorry saga (the Deepwater Horizon Disaster), written in tremendous style by the Reuters oil correspondent who covered BP for many years before the fateful moment in April 2010.


Disha Patani is indeed on a roll. Post the success of Baaghi 2, the actress has bagged Salman Khan’s Bharat and the actress says she considers herself fortunate to have gotten the opportunity.
“I just consider myself lucky. It’s a great time and I am getting work. Everything boils down to hard work. Eventually, if you work hard you will get work,” insists Disha.
In Bharat, Disha Patani will play the role of a trapeze artist, who will be a part of a circus group. The circus segment in the film will reportedly be a tribute to Raj Kapoor and Mera Naam Joker.
The actress seems suited for the role as she is also a fitness freak. So ingrained is the fitness bug that the actress confesses it has become part of her routine.
“Nobody likes to go to the gym but it’s a necessity, it’s a need and after a point, it becomes a part of your lifestyle. Your mind shifts from body to strength,” the Baaghi 2 actress said.
Meanwhile, Bharat, an onscreen adaptation of the 2014 South Korean movie, Ode To My Father, is expected to hit the screens next year on Id....

Teen Dating Violence From Centers for Disease Control
Dating violence is a type of intimate partner violence. It occurs
between two people in a close relationship. The nature of dating violence can
be physical, emotional, or sexual.
Unhealthy relationships can start early and last a lifetime.
Dating violence often starts with teasing and name calling.
These behaviors are often thought to be a "normal" part of a relationship. But
these behaviors can lead to more serious violence like physical assault and
• Physical -- This occurs when a partner is pinched, hit, shoved,
• Emotional -- This means threatening a partner or harming
his or her sense of self-worth. Examples include name calling,
shaming, bullying, embarrassing on purpose, or keeping him/her away from
friends and family.
• Sexual -- This is forcing a partner to engage in a sex act
when he or she does not or cannot consent.
Why is dating violence a public health problem?
Dating violence is a serious problem in the United States.
Many teens do not report it because they are afraid to tell friends and family.
• 72% of 8th and 9th graders reportedly "date."
• 1 in 4 adolescents report verbal, physical, emotional, or
sexual abuse from a dating partner each year.
• About 10% of students nationwide
report being physically hurt by a boyfriend or girlfriend in the past 12
How does dating violence affect
Dating violence can have a negative effect on health throughout
life. Teens who are victims are more likely to be depressed and do poorly in school.
They may engage in unhealthy behaviors, like using drugs and alcohol, and are
more likely to have eating disorders. Some teens even think about or attempt
suicide. Teens who are victims in high school are at higher risk for victimization
Who is at risk for dating violence?
Studies show that people who harm their dating partners are
more depressed and are more aggressive than peers. Other factors that increase
risk for harming a dating partner include:
Having a friend involved in
Having problem behaviors in other
Belief that dating violence is acceptable
Exposure to harsh parenting
Exposure to inconsistent discipline
Lack of parental supervision, monitoring, and warmth
How can we prevent dating violence?
The ultimate goal is to stop dating violence before it starts.
Strategies that promote healthy relationships are vital. During the preteen and
teen years, young people are learning skills they need to form positive relationships
with others. This is an ideal time to promote healthy relationships and prevent
patterns of dating violence that can last into adulthood. Prevention programs change the attitudes and behaviors
linked with dating violence.

Perception, Abuse, And Delinquency In Sins Of The Fathers
The following essay looks at Dane Peterson’s view of juvenile delinquency in his novel, Sins of the Fathers (2003). Peterson argues that there is a strong correlation between the abuse that a delinquent faces as a child and their delinquent behavior. To prove his point, he draws upon his theory of five different types of victims. This is not to say that these are the only type of victims found within delinquency, but these are some the most common ones found. Even though Peterson defined five different types of delinquents, the following essay focuses on the Dependent Victims, Intrusion Victims, and Reversal Victims. The following three types are fine examples of Peterson’s thesis. He also makes a point of defining the abuse as something perceived through the …show more content…
As the quote suggests, the way someone sees the world plays a huge role in how they perceive and understand the world around them. In Sins of the Fathers, Peterson argues how one can see just how much a delinquent’s perception of abuse and the effect of such abuse contributes to their behavior. Within the novel is an extensive amount of evidence to prove such a claim as well.
The book states its argument quite early on. Peterson suggests that “there is, in fact, a relationship between child abuse and delinquent behavior” (2003:13). To understand and help the delinquents, though, one must look at how the delinquent understands their existence and the perceptions they have of the world (Peterson 2003: 17). Even though in the novel, Peterson talks about five different types of delinquents, for this particular essay, the focus will be on three of the five types. The three chosen are great examples of how much perception and abuse play into the role of
