> Sports Editor of The Times speaks exlusively to Westerneye
The seductive smile of a star columnist, the draw of a dramatic headline or the idea of a comforting read on your route to work; the newspaper, even amid the 24-hour media madness, remains relevant, offering reflection and inspection on the good, the bad and the ugly strife of every-day life.
“I’ve never been a sports reporter,” he concedes. “It was only when I got a job here at The Times as a sub editor that I had ever worked on sport. I worked my way through and ended up as the sports editor six years ago,” adds Hallissey, who conducts an orchestra of award-winning writers.
The section boasts a host of renowned correspondents like Oliver Kay, Patrick Barclay and Matt Dickinson, columnists such as Matthew Syed, that eloquent investigative observer of sport, while Simon Barnes, Neil Harman and Mike Atherton, the former England captain and foremost cricket correspondent, also hail and regale at The Times.
“We certainly pride ourselves on having a very good writing team,” Hallissey says of the section’s scribers. “[But] even they would admit that there’s the odd ego or two that needs to be soothed, because they’re all very competitive people and everyone wants to be on the back page or have the big spread. It usually works itself out in the end.”
The back page is the end product in every sense, a consequence of meetings and a maelstrom of plans and ideas discussed back at the News International headquarters in London. Indeed each day of Hallissey’s is dynamic. “The editor [James Harding] has a general conference at 11 o’clock, which all the departments attend [and it] explains what they’re hoping to do that day. So that’s home news, foreign news, business, sport, opinion, pictures. And at 12:30 we begin planning the sports section.
“The editor has another conference at four o’clock where all decisions are made. From there, our first edition goes [to print] at 10:15pm. As news happens they [the pages] get chopped and changed. Things that you thought were really good at the start of the day turn out to be not quite so good. You shuffle it all around and hopefully produce some sort of coherent newspaper at the end of it.
“[While we’re also] running an up-to-the-minute website that is not just dealing with breaking news and interpreting and analysing that, but providing the other bells and whistles and extra added value that we can’t put in the paper but can work so well online – graphics, video and audio.”
It’s a wonder what the old writers think of the make-up of the online set-up, esteemed erstwhile scribers such as Geoffrey Green and the perennially penning Brian Glanville and Hugh Mcllvanney. The days when you’d bark your copy over the phone are vanquished. Now reporters often file their first article for a blog or for breaking news not long after mid-day, after some have had their say on a weekly podcast like The Game.“It’s going to be an internet-driven business,” observes Hallissey. “Newspapers are a mature business, a hugely valuable and much-loved industry. [But] the internet, the iPad, the Android – those possibilities are limitless. That’s where a huge amount of thought and resources are going to be ploughed in to.”
With the ever-developing output in place, what qualities does Hallissey look for when employing a sports reporter? “What you want with sport is someone who is very knowledgeable, very passionate.” What else is important? Ideas and enthusiasm? “Yes,” Hallissey says. “And not wanting to be paid very much.”
You may begin poor in money but should you be rich in hard work and earn lavish luck, landing a position on a title like The Times is far from unattainable, as Tim and every other top journalist will tell you – probably via twitter.


Election polling numbers that don’t reflect election results have contributed to a mistrust in both public institutions and the polling industry at large, said Patrick Murray, director of the Monmouth University Poll.
“Those times when we don’t get it right, which are honest mistakes, are no longer perceived as honest mistakes and contribute to a real deepening of this public district in institutions,” Murray said on Hill.TV’s “Rising.”
Differences between horse race polling predictions and election results have also undermined trust in polling more generally, Murray added.
“Nowadays we’re in a situation where those misses are used as evidence that there’s something nefarious going on and that undermines everything else that we do in polling that has nothing to do with election polling, but has to do with measuring the fundamental state of our republic and our polity,” he said.
In a piece published on NJ.com in November, Murray wrote he “blew it” after the Monmouth University Poll predicted New Jersey Democratic Governor Phill Murphy held a double digit lead over Jack Ciattarelli, a Republican challenger, days before the state’s election. Governor Murphy instead won reelection as governor by three points.
Murray said a shift away from horse race polling in elections can help to legitimize polling again.
“What value do we bring to the table when we’re saying one candidate is ahead of another candidate by 6 or 7 points, does it really contribute to the dialogue?” he said, “There are other ways that we can do election polling that don’t necessarily need to use the horse race, such as candidate favorability ratings, issue ratings those kind of things.”

A diplomatic row between Sweden and Israel has intensified, with Israeli politicians urging Stockholm to condemn a newspaper article they have described as “blood libel”.
In the report, published in Sweden’s leading tabloid, a freelance journalist accused the Israeli army of stealing body organs from Palestinian men after killing them.
“The statements in the Swedish press were outrageous,” Benyamin Netanyahu, the Israeli prime minister, was quoted as telling his cabinet on Sunday.
“We are not expecting an apology from the Swedish government… We are expecting condemnation.”
The Swedish government has refused to apologise for the article published in Sweden’s Aftonbladet on Monday last week, saying the country’s press freedom prevents it from intervening.
“If I devoted myself to correcting all the strange claims in the media, I would probably not have time to devote to very much else,” said Carl Bildt, the Swedish foreign minister.
The controversy comes two weeks before Bildt is to visit Israel, with Stockholm currently holding the rotating EU presidency.
In the article, Donald Bostrom, a Swedish freelance journalist, writes about the shortage of body parts in Israel and makes references to the so-called New Jersey scandal earlier this summer which involved rabbis, illegal organ trading and money laundering.Bostrom then gives what he says is his own eyewitness account of an Israeli army raid on a Palestinian village in 1992.
He told Al Jazeera he was not anti-Semitic and insisted what he wrote was true.
“The body was taken away and the authorities made an autopsy with this young man against the will of the family,” Bostrom said.
“All those things are actually true and happened. When the military returned the body the family said, ‘We think they stole the organ of the body’ because there was an empty belly.
The article has sparked outrage in Israel, with scores of ministers and commentators calling it anti-Semitic and reminiscent of mediaeval libels that Jews killed Christian children for their blood.
Yuval Steinitz, the Israeli finance minister, said: “In the Middle Ages, slander was spread accusing Jews of preparing Passover matza [unleavened bread] with the blood of Christian children.
“And today it is IDF [Israeli Defence Force] soldiers who are accused of killing Palestinians to take their organs.”
Steinitz said on Sunday that the crisis would continue “as long as the Swedish government doesn’t change its attitude towards this anti-Semitic article.
“Those who do not condemn it are not welcome in Israel.”
Gideon Levy, a political analyst for Israel’s Haaretz newspaper, described the dispute as “out of proportion” and an attempt by Israel to undermine Sweden’s criticism of Israel’s occupation of the Palestinian territories.
“I think this is a very good example of very bad journalism and very bad diplomacy,” he told Al Jazeera on Monday.
“The story was published without any kind of factual grounds and it was very easy to deny it and very hard to prove it.”
Daniel Seaman, the head of the Israeli government press office, said on Sunday he would not give accreditation to two of the newspaper’s reporters planning to visit the Gaza Strip.
A spokesman for Israel’s interior ministry said it was freezing the issue of entry visas to Swedish journalists, though those already working in the country would not be affected for now.
The newspaper commented on its story on Sunday, acknowledging that it had no proof of any organ theft but argued that the story deserved publication because of the issues it raised.

Allahabad High Court's ruling on child abuse draws ire
- The Allahabad High Court reduced the sentence of the accused by three years
- Reportedly, he is accused of having 'oral sex' with the minor in exchange for Rs 20
- Wake up High Courts - Pocso meant to save kids from vilest crimes, MP Mahua Moitra said
The Allahabad High Court is facing flak after it reduced the jail term of a man convicted of sexually assaulting a 10-year-old boy. The court observed that 'oral sex' with a minor does not come under the 'aggravated sexual assault' category in the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act.
The court in its judgment said that the crime falls in the 'penetrative sexual assault' category which is punishable under Section 4 of the POCSO Act.
In 2016, an FIR was filed in the Jhansi district against a man accusing him of having "oral sex" with the 10-year-old son of the complainant in exchange for Rs 20.
As per the report, the minor was asked not to divulge the details of the incident. He was threatened with dire consequences.
"From the perusal of the provisions of POCSO Act, it is clear that offence committed by appellant neither falls under Section 5/6 of POCSO Act nor under Section 9(M) of POCSO Act because there is 'penetrative sexual assault' in the present case," Justice Anil Kumar Ojha observed.
The crime does not fall in the category of 'aggravated sexual assault' or sexual assault. It comes in the category of 'penetrative sexual assault' which is punishable under Section 4 of the POCSO Act, he said.
"After going through the records and provisions of POCSO Act, I am of the considered opinion that the appellant should be punished under section 4 of POCSO Act because the act done by appellant falls in the category of penetrative sexual assault," the judge said.
Based on the FIR filed four days after the incident, a case was registered under Section 377 (carnal intercourse against the order of nature) and 506 (criminal intimidation) of the Indian Penal Code and section 3/4 of the POCSO Act.
The convict appealed against the 10-year jail term sentenced by an additional sessions judge/special Judge, POCSO Act, Jhansi. The Allahabad High Court partly allowed the appeal and sentenced the convict to seven years in jail instead of 10 years.
The court order caused outrage in India as many criticised it.
A section of people pointed out that the Supreme Court while quashing the Bombay High Court's skin-to-skin contact ruling, cited 'sexual intent' and not the details of the act.
MP Mahua Moitra said: "Wake up High Courts - Pocso meant to save kids from vilest crimes. Don't dilute it."
As per a BBC report, India reports one of the largest numbers of sexually abused children in the world. Every year at least thousands of cases get reported. Last year, the National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB) registered 43,000 offences under the Pocso Act. This means, there was an average of one case every 12 minutes.
A study that was done by the ministry of women and child in 2007 showed that more than 53% of nearly 12,300 children who were surveyed reported one or more forms of sexual abuse.
Anuja Gupta, who's been working on the issue of child sexual abuse, said that the official numbers of child abuse victims do not match with the reality on the ground.
"Child sexual abuse is called a silent epidemic. It's everywhere. It's happening in every second home and across generations. But there's stigma and a general reluctance to talk about the topic since many of the abusers are close family members. People, including survivors, say they will sort it out within the family so for every case that reaches court, hundreds don't," she said.
A victim herself, she said that she doesn't see the problem ending.

If you’re planning on going solar within the year, none of the following really matters. You’ll automatically receive a great price for your photovoltaic (PV) installation.
But if you plan on delaying your solar purchase, beware. One of the industry’s most attractive incentives will expire soon. And if you install panels after that due date, you can expect to pay a premium.
We’re of course talking about the federal solar investment tax credit (solar tax credit) – an extremely generous subsidy that has revolutionized the clean energy industry.
Thanks to this incentive:
- New installations now go up every 3 minutes (which is amazing)
- Solar employment has soared from 15,000 employees (2005) to over 173,000 workers (2014)
- PV installation costs have plummeted from $7.50 per watt (2009) to less than $3 per watt (2013)
But in December of next year, the solar tax credit will drop to 10% (for businesses) and 0% (for homeowners).
With this quickly approaching deadline, prospective solar customers are scrambling to get their systems up as soon as possible. In fact, many solar installers report having backlogs since “last minute” demand for PV systems is so high.
What Happens If You Miss the Solar Tax Credit Deadline?
Some fear that when the deadline expires, the number of new solar PV installations will plummet. After all, the relative cost of going solar will be much higher (30% higher).
And it’s probably true that there will be a temporary dip.
But we predict that overall demand for new PV installations will actually rise. And here’s why:
- According to Swanson’s Law, the cost of solar PV panels decreases 20% for every doubling of “shipped” panels. This is because manufacturers continue to innovate and enjoy economies of scale as demand increases.
- Utility rates keep trending upwards – largely as a result of dwindling fossil fuel reserves and increased global demand for energy. Whatever your utility bill is today, it will almost certainly be higher a year from now.
These converging trends are helping to reshape the renewable energy industry. Grid power is becoming more expensive, and solar power is becoming less.
In some states (including California), solar is already cheaper then continued reliance on the grid. And within the next year or so, nearly the entire country will have reached or exceeded solar grid parity.
So even if you delay your PV installation, you’ll still end up saving money. But if you go solar today, you’ll save a lot more.

Crop Plastics Recycling Germany (ERDE) is our solution for the environmental recovery and recycling of your used plastics from agriculture. Discover more about the system, suitable plastics and sustainable disposal.
The ERDE SYSTEM
Crop Plastics Recycling Germany (ERDE) is a recovery concept for crop plastics. The necessity for this concept arises from the massive use of silage stretch film, silage sheets, underlayer films and other plastics products in the agricultural sector. This is because: in particular in such a nature-orientated branch, these films may not pollute the environment after use, and must be introduced into the closed loop recycling management.
For a sustainable agricultural economy which is gentle on resources, members of the IK Industrievereinigung Kunststoffverpackungen (Industrial Association for Plastic Packaging) e. V. have, together with RIGK, taken the initiative for environmental protection, and have called the Crop Plastics Recycling Germany system into being.
Participating manufacturers from the crop plastics sector currently are:
European association: ape Europe
At the Crop Plastics Recycling Germany (ERDE) collection points, silage sheets, underlayer films, silo tubes, silage stretch film, net replacement films, asparagus film, perforated film, baler twine, nonwovens and mulching film can be handed in free of charge. Asparagus farmers can contact RIGK directly for the return of asparagus film.
The crop plastics which are returned via Crop Plastics Recycling Germany (ERDE) are divided into five groups (see above) and have to be collected and handed in separately accordingly. Crop plastics have to be free of coarse dirt, and no foreign materials (e.g. iron, wood or tyres) may be in which them. The criteria are checked on hand-on by trained personnel.
The ERDE system is a simple solution for the reliable, environmentally-friendly and sustainable disposal of agricultural plastics. The collected plastics are crushed, washed and melted to regrind during material recycling , and then used for the production of very different plastic products. Through the successful collaboration between producers and farmers, the recyclable material cycle can be closed, resources preserved and the environment protected.
You can obtain all collection points and information on the Crop Plastics Recycling Germany (ERDE) website – or simply via your Smartphone with the free ERDE-App!
Please contact the RIKG Team directly regarding the return of crop forcing films, fibrous webs and yarns, which took place up until now through FOLIO and NETTI.

The harder end of minimal techno is the prevailing sound of Extraction. It's clear that Dare & Haste have closely followed Rob Hood's more visceral releases as well as the relentless assault of Jay Denham's Black Nation catalogue. These influences manifest themselves most audibly on the jarring riffs of "Emptied Hall", the jackhammer intensity of the title track or on "Fear Engineering", where a buzzing bassline accelerates the onset of an irresistibly gloomy techno groove. Added to these original compositions are some excellent remixes, including Chris Finke's dubby, acid-flecked take on "Extended Sink Device" and the eerie, isolationist minimal of Jake Conlon's version of "Residual Image Of Detroit".

New details have emerged on Microsoft's project to create an operating system aimed at taking over when it retires Windows.
Called Midori, it is an internet-based system, unlike Windows, which is tied to a single PC.
Microsoft is planning for Midori to replace Windows, which many believe will struggle to meet modern working patterns: increasingly mobile and using ever more devices to work on text, pictures, spreadsheets or e-mail.
Internal Microsoft documents set out the strategic options for the development of Midori, according to SD Times.
The publication says that the documents show that Microsoft's preference is for an "orderly replacement strategy" to move millions of users away from Windows to Midori, rather than "breaking sharply with its past".
The documents outline options for different approaches on the extent to which Midori and Windows would work together.
Meanwhile, Microsoft is expected to ship the next version of its operating system, Windows 7, by January 2010.
In a statement, Microsoft said, "Midori is one of many incubation projects underway at Microsoft. It is simply a matter of being too early in the incubation to talk about it".

Adventure time: UB Alumni run Niagara Falls Adventure Park
Zip lining down 350 feet or a daredevil jump off a rooftop might be a good way to blow off some steam as schoolwork starts to pile on.
Niagara Falls Adventure Park is the place to go. The park is run by Ryan Lynn, a UB alumnus, and Kevin Santa, a student taking a year off. The park, located at 427 First Street, Niagara Falls, has three attractions for thrill-seekers: zip lining, rope-courses and Daredevil jumping.
“The zip line is the most popular, since people know more about it. Ours is a bit more low-key, but it hits 30 miles per hour, but you’re side-by-side with a buddy and you can race,” said Lynn, general manager of the park. “When people see people doing the daredevil jump and having fun, that’s usually the next one they do.”
During his time at UB, Lynn was the vice president of Outdoor Adventure Club (OAC) and president for two years after that.
Lynn had the opportunity to work for the park while it was being built and the owners were looking for attractions that would fit.
Lynn isn’t the only worker to come out of UB to work the park – many from OAC and other outdoor clubs also are part of the staff.
This is because these clubs offer experiences that would fulfill the necessary requirements for the job: a knack for adventure.
“My favorite experience would have to be getting someone to do something they never though they’d do,” said Santa, the assistant manager. “I get a lot of people that get up the ladder and are scared, a lot of times they can work through it, but other times I help them. I usually goof around on it so people can see I’m safe and relaxed, it helps ease them through it.”
Before guests are set loose on the ropes course, they’re outfitted with a harness and a Bornac safety billet carabineer, which limits a fall off the course to about a foot.
“It was exhilarating, both the zip line and the free-fall. I felt alive and it was liberating, it's my first time doing this,” said Sally Tellier from the Canadian-side of Niagara Falls.
But not everyone has the best experience their first time around.
Santa recalls a 12-year-old girls first experience at the True Blue drop on the ropes course.
The True Blue drop is a section in the middle of the ropes course where guests can hook themselves to and lower themselves down to the floor, instead of climbing back to the ladders.
“We’d recently added a rope to it for easier access for kids and it slipped, but the rope wasn’t for safety, just for reach, but she fell,” Santa said. “She was scared by the drop and started crying, so I helped her down the ladder and off the course. When she came back the second time, she ran around the course and jumped down the True Blue 12 times, she even counted.”
Lynn has also had his fair share of experiences both good and bad and works to help groups have the best time possible.
The adventure park even took some Go-Pro footage while guests participated.
“We have a 10-foot free-fall jump and people’s reactions are great, we strap Go-Pros on them, but we can’t use the footage because people tend to use colorful language,” Lynn said.
The Niagara Falls Adventure isn’t open all year-round but they have a wide season of operation.
They operate during the week from Friday to Sunday, 2 p.m. to 9 p.m. and their season runs from early May to mid-October.

The business partner of family YouTube vlogger Ruby Franke is facing scrutiny over her life coaching service, ConneXions, which former patients described as a program that isolated them from loved ones and destroyed marriages.
Before she was arrested alongside Franke on child abuse charges, Jodi Hildebrandt was counseling Mormon couples and families in Utah. Seven former patients, who used her services between 2008 and 2019, told NBC News that Hildebrandt methodically separated spouses, pathologized patients’ behaviors as evidence of various addictions and encouraged people to cut off others who weren’t living in accordance with her teachings.
“The theory was that if you’re meeting with Jodi, then you are all living in truth,” said Stephanie Jones, 29, who was counseled by Hildebrandt with her ex-husband for nine months in 2019. “And so she didn’t want you talking to anyone else about your problem. She wanted you talking to people that were also living in truth. So this is where I started to feel like it kind of got cult-like. She wanted everything to stay in the group. You’re not allowed to have a different opinion than her.”
Hildebrandt, a therapist, was arrested in August. She and Franke were each charged with six counts of felony child abuse — unrelated to her work with ConneXions — after Franke’s injured 12-year-old son escaped from Hildebrandt’s home. Franke’s malnourished 10-year-old daughter was also found in Hildebrandt’s home.
Hildebrandt established ConneXions in 2007, according to her LinkedIn page, although Utah Department of Commerce records show that it was registered as an LLC in April 2018. The service is known for its courses on relationships and parenting, which some former clients say are rooted in the principles of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints — also known as LDS or the Mormon church.
The lessons revolve around concepts of “truth” and “deception,” according to ConneXions slideshow presentations reviewed by NBC News. The slides describe how people live in “distortion” when they allow their wants, needs and experiences to impact their commitments to the “truth.”
Franke, who is listed as a “certified mental fitness trainer” on the ConneXions website, was prominently featured in the service’s videos alongside Hildebrandt. In now-deleted YouTube videos viewed by NBC News, the two preached that those who are not living in “truth,” including children, should be cut off from the rest of their families. None of the clients who spoke to NBC News said Franke counseled them.
Former clients of Hildebrandt’s who spoke with NBC News, all of whom were active members of the church at the time of their treatment, said that Hildebrandt took an extreme approach to LDS teachings in her lessons.
An attorney for Hildebrandt did not respond to repeated requests for comment made via email, by phone and an in-person office visit last week. A representative for LaMar Winward, Franke’s attorney, declined to comment.
A spokesperson for the LDS church also did not respond to a request for comment. The church has also not publicly issued comments on allegations made about Hildebrandt or her recent arrest.
Some former male clients said they were treated indiscriminately for porn addiction
A primary focus in Hildebrandt’s programs, specifically for the men in her treatment, concerned porn and sex addiction, those who spoke to NBC News said.
Hildebrandt previously worked as a therapist specializing in “porn addiction.” Porn addiction is not recognized as a disorder in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5), the standard classification manual used by mental health counselors in the United States, although the LDS church encourages people to seek help from LDS-sponsored addiction recovery programs if they struggle with pornography consumption.
Pornography is considered a huge sin by the church, even perceived by some as a gateway to serious crimes like murder, according to John Dehlin, a former therapist and host of the podcast “Mormon Stories,” which seeks to bring awareness to issues within LDS culture. He said LDS members are taught that men are “sexual animals” and women are “the gatekeepers.” Dehlin interviewed several former patients of Hildebrandt’s and reviewed ConneXions material for his podcast.
Five men told NBC News that they were diagnosed with porn or sex addictions by Hildebrandt, although all of them said that they didn’t exhibit any abnormal issues with either.
They said they were put into men’s counseling groups that focused on porn, sex and lust. Group counseling involved weekly hourlong meetings and daily “support calls” in which participants called each other to discuss their therapy goals. They said that in these meetings their peers described getting kicked out of the house or abstaining from sex with their spouses for months at a time as punishment for watching pornography.
Spencer Tibbets, who described his childhood as “extremely sheltered” with little access to technology, said he was sent to Hildebrandt for two months when he was 16 after getting in trouble for obtaining a secret phone to play video games. Hildebrandt moved him from her children’s group to her men’s group so that he could have more in-depth conversations about his treatment goals. The men’s group participants were being treated for porn addiction.
“I had a secret phone, but I didn’t even know what porn was,” Tibbets, now 21, said.
Tibbets said that during support calls, men in the group would describe how they had been separated from their wives because they struggled with porn consumption. Tibbets said that in one call, a group member described incest fantasies to him.
Tibbets said Hildebrandt told him that if he “didn’t accept the Mormon God, [he] would never be able to get help from therapy.” At the time, he was questioning his faith after his father had given him the choice to attend church or not.
Brian Tibbets, 47, father of Spencer Tibbets, said he also saw Hildebrandt with his ex-wife for about four months in early 2018. He said his choice to leave the LDS church caused a strain in their relationship. They placed their three eldest children in Hildebrandt’s courses.
Tibbets’ ex-wife did not respond to a request for comment.
Hildebrandt had previously been disciplined by Utah officials
In 2012, Hildebrandt was disciplined by Utah’s Division of Occupational and Professional Licensing, according to documents obtained by NBC News. She was put on probation for 18 months by the state after she engaged in “unprofessional conduct.”
Hildebrandt disclosed information about a patient, identified as “John Doe,” with LDS church leaders and Brigham Young University officials, according to a 2012 stipulation and order report from DOPL obtained by NBC News. Doe was a student at BYU at the time. She also had a dual relationship with the patient’s wife, “Jane Doe,” whom she was counseling and managing as an intern, which is considered unprofessional. Her license was later reinstated with full privileges on Aug. 6, 2013.
Hildebrandt was taken off of the LDS family services roster after her license was put on probation, according to a 2012 report from The Salt Lake Tribune. But some patients told NBC News she was still informally recommended to them either by their bishops or by loved ones in the church after being removed from the roster.
Adam Paul Steed, 40, who saw Hildebrandt with his then-wife for nine months in 2008, said he is the unnamed patient in the report that led Hildebrandt to be put on probation. He said Hildebrandt tried to treat him for a sex and porn addiction after he started marriage counseling, but he refused. NBC News reviewed a DOPL complaint naming Steed, therapy notes from Steed’s sessions with Hildebrandt and an honor code report from BYU.
Steed said Hildebrandt had made false claims about him to the church, BYU and his ex-wife. He said he lost church privileges, was temporarily suspended from BYU and got divorced due to Hildebrandt’s actions.
“My family got destroyed,” he said. “My life got destroyed.”
Steed, who experienced childhood sexual abuse as a teen, said that Hildebrandt weaponized his experience with abuse against him. His marriage began to deteriorate around nine months into seeing Hildebrandt, who he said had insisted the couple needed to “triple down” on the amount of therapy sessions they were taking.
“[Hildebrandt] was blaming everything on me being a sexual addict at that point,” he said. “She was saying that that every time I said I was a victim of sexual abuse, that that was my addiction speaking. So if I had PTSD and trauma, and I mentioned it, they would confront me that that was my addiction of sexual abuse.”
When they began seeing Hildebrandt, he believed his ex-wife began feeling like she had to “protect” herself and their children from him.
Steed’s ex-wife declined to comment through her attorney Chris Wharton, who said, “Out of respect for the judicial process and the best interests of the parties’ minor children, my client is not providing any further comments at this time.”
Some former female patients say Hildebrandt shamed them for their views
Stephanie Jones, 29, said a bishop in her church referred her and her then-husband to Hildebrandt in 2019 after she alleged that he had been physically and emotionally abusive toward her.
At first, Jones said she loved Hildebrandt’s program because it was the first time she learned about boundaries and codependency. She later felt that the group counseling sessions were not helpful in addressing the abuse in her relationship. Her ex-husband, like other men in Hildebrandt’s program, was treated for a “lust” addiction.
“I don’t feel like she helped with what we were actually there to get help with,” Jones said.
Jones said Hildebrandt helped keep her ex-husband “in line.” But when she told Hildebrandt she wanted to leave him, the therapist encouraged her to stay.
“I do feel like she prolonged me staying with him because his behavior genuinely did improve when we were seeing her, but I think it was just because he didn’t want to get in trouble,” Jones said.
Jones’ ex-husband, who is currently incarcerated for an unrelated aggravated assault, confirmed through his attorney Joseph Rupp that he was put in a group for sex, lust and porn addiction. The lawyer said his client “believes that Stephanie might characterize their relationship as physically or emotionally abusive” but that the client “did not specify.” The ex-husband confirmed via Rupp that Hildebrandt encouraged them to stay together.
Jones said that in the women’s group, women without any other formal mental health diagnosis were treated for “control addiction.” Control addiction is not recognized as a disorder in the DSM-5. Jones said that an example of her addiction was if she tried to appease her husband when she was scared of him. She was told that she was trying to “control his emotions so that [she didn’t] get hurt.”
“Is it fair to call everyone that comes through your program an addict just because you want to be their savior?” Jones said. “She labeled me an addict as well. And she had me through a 12-step program for control.”
Jones was told to write down every way she used her addiction, which she was unable to do. She felt like the diagnosis was too abstract. Still, she had to call people in the women’s group about her supposed problem.
Eliza Tibbets, 19, said she was treated by Hildebrandt at the same time as her brother Spencer in 2018. She said Hildebrandt diagnosed her with a “control addiction” when she was 13 and in the children’s group at the time. She was eventually put into a 12-step program for a “lying addiction” because she wrote secret notes to her neighbors and acquired a secret phone to watch Netflix.
Tibbets didn’t feel like she had a lying problem. When she tried explaining herself, she said Hildebrandt would accuse her of living in “distortion.” When she was in the 12-step program, she was told to write down the ways she used her addiction. She also had to call adult women in Hildebrandt’s program to keep herself accountable.
“I’d never ever felt like any of them, especially Jodi, was like a safe place to go to for therapy,” Tibbets said. “I never felt safe. I always felt like I was getting attacked.”
She said Hildebrandt would often shame her and accuse her of being distorted if she said “something that she perceived as a lie” or was “not being completely compliant with her.”
Tibbets made it through four steps before she moved in with her father. They both stopped seeing Hildebrandt by the end of 2018.
The Utah Division of Professional Licensing, as the agency is now known, said last week that Hildebrandt voluntarily surrendered her mental health counseling license on Sept. 19. Her license is still active, but limited. She is not being formally disciplined by DOPL, but she will be unable to practice if she is released from jail, according to a stipulation and order report from the agency obtained by NBC News.
“Given the heinous abuse allegations, the agency felt that the surrender of the license was the best course of action to protect the safety of Hildebrandt’s patients and clients,” Margaret Busse, executive director of the Utah Department of Commerce, said in a statement.
Hildebrandt and Franke are both being held without bail until their next court hearing, which a judge has not yet scheduled.
CORRECTION (Sept. 25, 2023, 9 p.m. ET): A previous version of this article misstated the nature of Adam Steed’s sessions with Jodi Hildebrandt. He was not treated for sex and porn addiction, which he says he refused.

This little park is a real eye catching gem it is situated in Sablon Square where forty eight little statues ring both the square and the park. I will place a picture of the statues in an albulm as I realise while writing I did not include one. The park is small but well tended with many statues of Counts of Brussels framed by natures best greenery. The centre piece is a statue and water fountain commemorating the Counts of Egmont and Hoorne who were executed in the nearby Market Place by order of Philip ll of Spain in 1568. We enjoyed our stroll around here - a little bit of peace a step from a noisy city.
The Sablon is one of the most prestigious and attractive areas in Brussels. In recent years it has become the center of the antiques shops and art galleries.
The name of this area refers to the time when it was still situated outside of the city walls of the 12th century. It was originally a sandy road along which people had access to the city gates. Because of frequent use this road had become hollow and on both sides a yellowish earth layer could be seen. This type of sandy clay was called 'zavel' in Dutch and "sablon" in French. In the 14th century a small chapel in the sablon area was transformed into an important pilgrimage site where a miraculous statue of Our Lady was venerated. Very soon the area became more populated and was enclosed within the 14th century city walls. Around 1450 the little chapel had been transformed into a beautiful gothic church, the Sablon church or church of Our Lady of the Victories.
In the center is the statue of the counts of Egmont and Hoorne who were executed at the Market Place by order of Philip II of Spain in 1568.
Nowadays, the Sablon is visited by lovers of antiques and art because the entire area boasts hundreds of antiques shops and art galleries.

I would recommend a walk to the Kleine Zavel or as they call it in French Le Petit Sablon.
It is really a very nice little park.
There are a lot of little statues put around the iron fence. They all represent an occupation.
Try to find out which one it is!
It is a nice place to park your bicycle, if you are courageous enough to cycle through Brussels (see my transportation tips). It is also a nice little oasis to take your lunch bag and enjoy your sandwiches on one of the benches around the little fountain in the middle.
During the Middle Ages, the Sablon was a wasteland outside the Southern edge of the first city wall.
In the Eastern part, what is now known as Petit Sablon, was a grave yard for the Saint Johns hostpital. I write the year 1299 as the inauguration of this cemetery.
In 1304 a part of this territory was donated to build the Church you see at the opposite of the Petit Sablon. It is Our Lady’s church of the Sablon.
In 1704 the cemetery was dismissed (by Emperor Joseph II of Austria?).
Due to urbanisation of the area – new houses; streets; making of the square around the Church – the area became divided in two parts: big and small, Sablon and Petit Sablon.
Opposite the Notre Dame du Sablon is located one of the most elegant squares in Brussels - Place du Petit Sablon. The 48 bronze statues, standing on 48 fine neo gothic columns, recall the guild masters of the 16th century. Tile and thatch roofers, chair makers, gold beaters and dried cod dealers.
Coming from Rue Blaes we find a wonderful market ... after I have read that is the most famous antiques market ... I am so happy to have get here ... lost of antiques of hight quality ... hight prices ... but ... great food for my eyes and spirit ...
I get in love with a beautiful japanese doll ... the coast was 900 euros ... the day after I went to the flea market at Place Jeu de Balle and I founded another japanese doll ...very similar to this one .... but .... it was like compare a real diamon with a cristal one ... they can be smilar but ... there is something that make the great difference ....
This market take place at weekends, saturdays from 9am to 5pm and Sundays from 9am to 1pm
In the small park, Le Petit Sablon, you can see, besides the big statue of Egmont and Hoorne, lots of white Carrara marble statues.
These statues represent the heroes who fought against the Spanish tyranny or intellectuals and scientists from the 16th century. They all have in common the fact that they devoted their lives to conquering their freedom of thought.
Some of the names of the statues: William of Orange-Nassau, Corneille de Vriendt (sculptor and architect of the Antwerp City Hall), Gerard Mercator (geographer), . . .
Opposite the Our lady of Sablon Church there is a small park. It is Le Petit Sablon (de kleine Zavel).
At first this park was a square. This park is surrounded by a fence which is decorated with 48 beautiful small statues; these statues represent the different Brussels trades.

BAKERSFIELD, Calif. - The bricks on the plaza in front of Rabobank Arena may be getting a reprieve.
People purchased bricks back in the late 90s to help pay for the construction of Centennial Plaza.
People who purchased the bricks were allowed to put the names of family members and businesses on them and some used them as memorials for lost loved ones.
Last Friday the city announced they wanted to tear out all of the bricks and replace them with concrete because of issues with chipping, breaking and uneven bricks they say is causing a hazard.
The outrage from the community over the plan was almost unanimous.
People 23ABC spoke with say when they bought the bricks they intended them to be there much longer. They consider them a memorial and don't think that they should be moved or disturbed.
The controversial plan even got the attention of city council members who say there should be more consideration of the plan before taking the bricks out.
City Councilman Terry Maxwell says the city manager's office has now decided to postpone the date of when the removal of the bricks was set to begin.
Councilman Maxwell says he hopes another alternative can be found that won't destroy the memories of people who purchased bricks.
The City will discuss the issue at a council meeting on August 13.

London: The titular eighth Nizam of Hyderabad, Prince Mukarram Jah, on Thursday decided to waive his right to some residue funds from a long-drawn legal dispute in the High Court in England.
Following a failed attempt by members of his extended family to stake claim over nearly 35 million pounds lying in a London bank account during a hearing in the High Court in London on Wednesday, the prince declared that he wishes to have a clean break from the case.
This litigation has lasted almost the entire lifetime of our client, HEH VIII Nizam of Hyderabad. He wishes to have a clean break, said Paul Hewitt of Withers LLP, who have acted for the eighth Nizam since proceedings were issued in the case in 2013.
Waved right to claim
Thus, he proposes that whatever remains of the 400,000 pounds can be distributed to the wider members of the family, waiving his right to claim that money as well on the basis of the customary law which dictates that the seventh Nizam’s estate passed to his heir HEH eighth Nizam, he said.
On Wednesday, Justice Marcus Smith had dismissed attempts by Najaf Ali Khan, president of the Nizam Family Welfare Association, and Himayat Ali Mirza to challenge an October 2019 judgment in favour of India and Prince Mukarram Jah and his brother in a 70-year-old legal dispute with Pakistan over an estimated 35 million pounds belonging to the late seventh Nizam of Hyderabad at the time of Partition in 1947.
The two princes and India had reached a confidential agreement, which meant that the funds have been divided between them based on Justice Smith’s order from last year.
They also reached a confidential agreement with Christopher Lintott, the court appointed administrator of the late seventh Nizam’s English estate, by which an additional sum passed to the estate and of which an estimated 400,000 pounds remain.
At the end of a two-day ruling this week, Justice Smith approved Lintott’s application to appoint a trust company to be the new personal representative of the remaining funds.
The new representative will now establish who is entitled to what remains after legal costs of the 400,000 pounds, to which Prince Mukarram Jah has agreed not to lay any claim. It is now for the PennTrust to conduct an inquiry and allocate what remains of the 400,000 pounds in light of the eighth Nizam’s offer to the wider family.
The titular eighth Nizam’s relatives, claiming to be among the 117 heirs of the late seventh Nizam, had targeted Lintott for entering into the confidential agreement with India and the princes, saying that he should have secured more money for the estate of the erstwhile seventh Nizam.
The judge pointed out that confidential agreement was approved by another High Court judge, which makes the prospect of a claim against Lintott succeeding remote.
The historic dispute revolves around 1,007,940 pounds and nine shillings transferred in 1948 from the then Nizam of Hyderabad to the high commissioner in Britain of the newly-formed state of Pakistan.
That amount had since grown in a London bank account into 35 million pounds as the Nizam’s descendants, supported by India, claimed it belonged to them and Pakistan counter-claimed that it was rightfully theirs.
Last year’s High Court verdict had dismissed Pakistan’s claim, marking an important conclusion to an extremely long-drawn legal battle that saw the Indian government, the princes and the administrator of the estate of Nizam VII compromising their differences and entering into a confidential settlement agreement in 2018.

Whether it's long-term or short-term, proposals to hike the debt ceiling are schemes for allowing the federal government to borrow more money so it can continue to spend beyond its means. Politicians want to borrow more money because they have spending plans that consistently exceed the amount of money that the federal government takes in as taxes, and that are projected to continue to outpace revenues into the foreseeable future. Raising the debt ceiling means snowballing debt rolling downhill right toward our children and their children.
In a Cato Institute paper published in February of this year, Jagadeesh Gokhale of the Social Security Advisory Board warns:
Current U.S. fiscal policy, including the recently concluded "fiscal cliff " debt deal, is placing an enormous financial burden on today's children and on future generations in order to deliver government benefits to current middle-aged workers and their elders. Standard government accounting methods hide that intergenerational transfer from the public and make it difficult to calculate how large the transfer is. Intergenerational resource transfers will grow larger as the composition of budget receipts and expenditureschanges with relatively faster growth of age- and gender-related social insurance programs. Intergenerational redistributions through federal government operations could substantially affect different generations' economic expectations and choices and exert powerful long-term effects on economic outcomes.
Entitlements are a big part of the problem. In fact, current middle-aged workers are expected to receive such enormous benefits via Social Security and Medicare under existing policies, Gokhale continues, that their lifetime net tax burdens are "almost fully eliminated." With the Congressional Budget Office projecting spending to steadily rise, as a percentage of GDP, over the decades to come, while taxes are expected to remain a bit above their decades-long average share of GDP, that means deficits, year after year, and growing debt, as ceilings get bumped ever-higher until the economy buckles under the pressure.
This is without taking into account the fact that "the increase in debt relative to the size of the economy, combined with an increase in marginal tax rates (the rates that would apply to an additional dollar of income), would reduce output and raise interest rates relative to the benchmark economic projections that CBO used in producing the extended baseline." Taking the resultingly depressed economy into account, "debt under the extended baseline would rise to 108 percent of GDP in 2038."
This means, essentially, that the massive tab for everything else besides entitlements is being passed along to the next generation via borrowing to cover today's bill. And they'll have a lousy economy in which to scare up the payments.
Of course, most of the current flock of politicians—Barack Obama, Harry Reid, John Boehner, and company—expect to have happily sucked up the entitlements that will leave their tax payments "almost fully eliminated" long before the bill comes due. It's tough luck for their kids and grandkids, along with ours—unless they've arranged for them to dodge the consequences (they wouldn't do that, would they?).
That intergenerational passing of the check, with no plan in sight to do otherwise, is the big problem with just raising the debt ceiling like our self-proclaimedly responsible policial class insists. Pay no mind to the debt—it's doom if we don't comply.
But what doom? Economist and Reason columnist Veronique de Rugy has pointed out that "if the debt ceiling is not increased, the Treasury can prioritize interest and debt payment to avoid a default." Now, Moody's Steven Hess agrees, writing, "We believe the government would continue to pay interest and principal on its debt even in the event that the debt limit is not raised, leaving its creditworthiness intact. The debt limit restricts government expenditures to the amount of its incoming revenues; it does not prohibit the government from servicing its debt."
So, the federal government is fully able to pay off its already hefty tab even if we cut up the credit card. Then, maybe, it can finally get its spending under control.


BELMAR, NJ — Belmar Elementary School’s Sweetheart Dance was a magical night, as girls danced with their special dates and spent time with their friends at the Taylor Pavilion.
In addition to bringing their dads or someone special to the February 7 dance hosted by the Belmar Elementary PTO, they enjoyed pizza and ice cream sundaes, as well as taking snapshots in a St. Valentine’s photo booth.
And it's not every day that girls have a reason to wear their party attire — dresses in so many styles and colors that they made the festive occasion even brighter.
Donating food, flowers, decorations or providing other assistance were Federico’s, Spring Lake Community Theater, Jersey Shore DJs, Belmar Teachers Pride, Megan Mills at Wildflowers Florist and Gifts, and Belmar Elementary Peer Leaders.
Led by a PTO dance committee chairs Alli Ross and Jackie Dahrouge, parent volunteers included Carol Turano, Gina Colucci, Kendy Thompson and Sue Trogu, as well as BES staff members Patricia Glab, Laurie Diffley, Kerry White, Bruce Blattner, Jen Lawrence and Maura O'Brien.

The third Friday of February is recognized as National Caregivers Day, and the CIP is celebrating by sharing the stories of a few Elks Lodges that use their Beacon Grants to ensure that those who care are also cared for.
Horseheads, N.Y., Lodge No. 2297 used its Beacon Grant to hold a daylong Caregiver’s Retreat. The Lodge connected with the Alzheimer’s Association to bring in partners that shared their expertise with the caregivers in attendance. Seminars covered money management, avoiding scams, and physical and mental health practices. Representatives from government agencies, nonprofits and advocacy groups provided the attendees with resources.
The event brought together like-minded people with similar experiences. Studies have shown that working together improves quality of life and helps those in difficult circumstances accept them.
“One of the most beneficial aspects of our program is giving the caregivers an opportunity to sit with others going through the same struggles and share stories and ideas,” says Grants Coordinator Frank Savino. “Respite care provides the caregiver a temporary break from their duties to allow them to attend to their own needs.”
The keynote speaker, Rev. Dr. Cynthia Huling Hummel, is the director of the Finger Lakes Center of Excellence for Alzheimer’s Disease. Rev. Dr. Hummel is living with Alzheimer’s herself; she was diagnosed in 2016 and has spent the years since helping others navigate the same journey.
The event required about 50 Elks to pull it off. From setting up the Lodge to preparing and serving the meals to cleanup duty, members were more than willing to lend a hand to make the retreat a positive experience.
The event was such a hit that preparations are being made for the next one, tentatively scheduled for November 2024. When the time comes, a Beacon Grant will be waiting to assist them in making the retreat another success.
Some Lodges use grants to provide auxiliary support for caregivers. San Antonio, Texas, Lodge No. 216 uses its Beacon Grant to provide welcome distractions for children undergoing cancer treatment. In partnership with Jaxon’s Frog Foundation, the Lodge purchases Smile Bags for pediatric cancer patients, containing toys and puzzle books, along with practical items like colorful water bottles and sunglasses.
“We have seen firsthand the need to help these children and their families cope with the very long days at the clinic,” says Grants Coordinator Lee Hincher. “The Smile Bags helped Jaxon’s Frog Foundation reach children and families during some of their darkest times of need.”
The San Antonio Elks have learned over the eight years of completing this project that even the smallest items can make a difficult time easier.
Ketchikan, Alaska, Lodge No. 1429 uses a Beacon Grant to maintain a medical equipment closet. The Lodge uses grant funds to purchase medical items that are kept at the Southeast Alaska Independent Living facility. Members of the community can use the wheelchairs, shower benches, and walkers for up to three months. Many caregivers pick up wheelchairs for friends or relatives as they recover from medical procedures.
“We do not have a Medical Supply store in our community and need everything sent by barge or mail,” says Grants Coordinator Bernice Metcalf. “The medical loan closet is heavily used, and they need to have nice, safe working equipment to loan out to community members.”
One of the new Impact Grant projects being funded in 2024 is “Elks Caring for the Caregiver” from Wells, Maine, Lodge No. 2738. This project will create a monthly caregiver support group meeting at the Lodge. Connecting caregivers with their peers and local resources will improve their emotional, social and financial health, which better enables them to provide care. By the time of next year’s National Caregivers Day, we can expect the caregivers of the Wells community to feel bolstered by their local Lodge.
Every CIP grant project could be considered a project of caregiving. By identifying a need in their community and using grant funds to address it, Lodges show how much they care for their neighbors. On this National Caregivers Day, every Lodge can take pride in the fact they’ve made care a more prominent feature of their community.
For 2023-24, the Elks National Foundation allocated nearly $16 million to fund the Community Investments Program. Lodges meet local needs through CIP grants that offer Elks opportunities to serve their community in ways that will raise the Lodge’s profile, energize the membership, encourage former members to return to the fold, and gain the notice of people who want to be part of an organization that’s doing great things.

One of the largest departments in the federal government says it has role to play in safeguarding American’s health from the effects of climate change, and argues this role is “firmly rooted in public health history.”
The Department of Health and Human Services is a $2 trillion entity that houses agencies like the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, the National Institutes of Health, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Food and Drug Administration.
Last week, the department’s new Office of Climate Change and Health Equity said it was ready to tackle the challenges of climate-related health impacts, just as the government took on sanitation standards and air pollution in decades ago.
“The incredibly broad effects of climate change and the many ways it worsens existing inequities in the United States must be met with a swift and sustained public health response,” wrote John Balbus, the interim director of the Office of Climate Change and Health Equity. “Our country helped eradicate polio and sanitized our cities. Now we must rise to meet another challenge.”
Balbus said part of that work is ensuring the health of “disadvantaged” groups that would be most affected by climate change.
“Climate change does not affect all of us the same way. Just as unsanitary urban settings at the turn of the 20th century primarily affected low-income and immigrant communities, climate change likewise often hurts disadvantaged groups most,” he wrote. As one example, he said if global temperatures rise by 2 degrees Celsius, “Black and African American individuals are 34% more likely to live in areas with the highest projected increases in childhood asthma.”
The Office of Climate Change and Health Equity says it exercises the “power of convening, coordination and collaboration” to advance “climate change and health policy” as it pursues “environmental justice and equitable health outcomes.” Among its priorities are identifying communities with “disproportionate exposures to climate hazards and vulnerable populations,” and addressing “health disparities exacerbated by climate impacts to enhance community health resilience.”
HHS has also established an Office of Environmental Justice within the Office of Climate Change and Health Equity, which focuses on the “people of color, disadvantaged, vulnerable, low-income, marginalized, and indigenous peoples” who are “disproportionately burdened by environmental hazards.”
The new climate change mission at HHS was established by an executive order from President Biden that he released in his first week in office. That order created a special presidential envoy for climate, a role filled by former Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass., and gave most major federal departments a climate change mission.
It specifically instructed HHS to create its Office of Climate Change and Health equity to “address the impact of climate change on the health of the American people.” It also asked HHS to establish a working group to lower the risk of climate change to “children, the elderly, people with disabilities and the vulnerable.”

Campfire metaverse is on fire right now, don't miss out on this golden opportunity!
This one will be a long-term hold.💎
<Btc price has been fluctuating lately which means the market is currently open and you cannot tell whether it is going bearish or bullish. This uncertainty drives most traders away and forces investors to hold. I would say it is completely wrong to just sit back and wait and maybe make some few losses, that is the wrong mindset for an investor because as an investor it should be our job to find ways to keep adding more and more coins and charge. The goal is to make a profit. It all depends on the pattern you are trading in and the source of your strategies as well. I started at 7.2 BTC and went up over 15.5 BTC in few months, with the correct trading strategy given to me by a skilled trader, Jamie Jewitt. His methods are top notch and profitable, You can easily get to him on Telegram; (@Jamiesignal)for crypto inclined issues, cheers…🚀

An access decision determines whether records are open or restricted.
Privacy and other legislative or business requirements need to be taken into consideration when determining access to current records.
There is also a need to determine appropriate access to non-current records or archives under Section 43 of the Public Records Act 2005.
We recommend that access decisions for all information are made at the time of creation. This will help you manage access to information throughout its life cycle, as referred to in Principle 4 of the Records Management Standard for the New Zealand Public Sector.
The adoption of the Government ICT Strategy and Action Plan to 2017 and the increased use of digital business and recordkeeping systems in the public sector provide an opportunity for you to embed access regimes into these systems.
Section 43 of the Public Records Act (2005) requires that the status for appropriate external access to public records or local authority archives is made when:
• public records have been in existence for 25 years or
• public records are about to be transferred to the control of the Chief Archivist
• local authority records become archives
There must be there are good reasons to restrict public access to public records or local authority archives.
The Making Access Decisions on the Access Status of Public Records guide is to help you make appropriate decisions about open or restricted access to information in both paper and electronic record environments. It directs you to our forms and templates as well as other assistance and relevant legislation.

Description of original award (Fiscal Year 2022, $408,408)
In FY2018 Congress created the first set-aside from the CVF, “available to the Office for Victims of Crime for grants, consistent with the requirements of the Victims of Crime Act, to Indian tribes to improve services for victims of crime.” The program is open only to federally recognized Indian Tribes, and is administered via a formula. TVSSA funds may be used for any purpose directly related to serving victims of crime, and OVC encourages its Tribal partners to be creative and innovative in using the funds to provide culturally-relevant, linguistically-appropriate, victim-centered services. HOULTON BAND OF MALISEET INDIANS is using this FY 2022 TVSSA award to implement services for victims of crime that meet needs identified by the community and reflect tribal community values and traditions.

The separate incidents involved a 22-year-old Riverside County man and a 20-year-old man whose residence wasn't given.
One of the men has active status under the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program, and the other is a former DACA beneficiary whose protections have expired.
The man is now being held in Department of Homeland Security custody.

Apple is reportedly slashing iPhone X production in half Additionally both the iPhone X Plus and the 5.6 inch model will have 4GB of RAM, more than the 2017 iPhone X which only has 3GB. Should an iPhone SE sequel launch in 2018, Kuo predicts it would get a faster processor and a lower price.
In another incident, agents received a tip from a citizen who observed a suspected smuggling incident near Torrey Pines State Beach on January 24, 2018.
Inside, 10 undocumented immigrants were dead from overheating.
The 22-year-old driver of the vehicle admitted to performing scouting duties for a smuggling crew.
The third man in the vehicle was a 21-year-old Mexican national being smuggled by the two cousins, a CBP public relations officer clarified for Breitbart News on Tuesday.
Francisco said the decision to release the information was made by local officials in the San Diego Sector office and not at the direction of higher-ups at the Department of Homeland Security or Customs and Border Protection.
An agency spokesperson said those arrested can not be named until after charges are filed.
