Evaluation of a Child Sexual Abuse Prevention Program --- Vermont, 1995--1997
Public health social marketing campaigns have targeted adults to prevent drinking and driving, smoking, and human immunodeficiency virus transmission (1,2); however, adults have not been targeted for prevention of child sexual abuse. In Vermont, STOP IT NOW! addresses child sexual abuse systematically as a public health issue by using social marketing and public education to emphasize the responsibility of adults for prevention. As one component of STOP IT NOW!, Vermont sex offender treatment providers and state attorneys' offices were surveyed in September 1997 to assess self-reported abuse by adults and adolescents. This report summarizes the results of the survey, which indicate that some adults who abuse will turn themselves in voluntarily for treatment despite mandated reporting to the legal system, and some parents will intervene to seek help for their children who have sexual behavior problems even without a victim's report. Continued studies are needed to evaluate this approach to preventing child sexual abuse.
The Vermont Center for the Prevention and Treatment of Sexual Abusers, a public agency jointly funded through Vermont's Department of Correction and Social and Rehabilitative Services, sent a survey to all 18 Vermont treatment providers working with adult and adolescent sex offenders. Sex offender treatment providers were asked to report the number of persons who self-reported before entering the legal system during 1995--September 1997. Fifteen (83%) sex offender treatment providers responded to the survey.
State attorneys' offices in Vermont's 14 counties were contacted by telephone to determine the number of adults and adolescents with sexual behavior problems who voluntarily entered the legal system during 1995--September 1997. These cases were distinguished from those that entered the legal system after a child victim or an adult informed by a child victim reported the situation. Because Vermont does not track self-disclosure, it was not possible to determine the percentage of sex offenders who self-reported.
Vermont sex offender treatment providers reported that 50 persons self-reported sexual abuse before entering the legal system during 1995--September 1997. Of these, 11 were adults who self-reported, and 39 were adolescents who entered treatment as a result of a parent or guardian soliciting help. State attorneys' offices reported that eight adults who had sexually abused a child self-reported to legal authorities in five counties.
Reported by: L Chasan-Taber, ScD, Dept of Biostatistics and Epidemiology, School of Public Health and Health Sciences, Univ of Massachusetts, Amherst; J Tabachnick, MPPM, STOP IT NOW!, Haydenville, Massachusetts. PM McMahon, PhD, Injury Research and Prevention, Louisiana Office of Public Health, Dept of Health and Hospitals and Dept of Pediatrics, School of Medicine, Tulane Univ, New Orleans, Louisiana. Family and Intimate Violence Prevention Team, Div of Violence Prevention, National Center for Injury Prevention and Control, CDC.
Editorial Note:
During 1993, approximately 300,000 children were sexually abused (3). Most child sexual abuse prevention programs focus on teaching children how to lower their risk for becoming a victim of sexual abuse (4). However, the greatest potential for prevention may be with persons who abuse or other adults who can intervene with the abuser. With treatment, those who abuse can modify their behaviors (5).
This report underscores the potential efficacy of targeting persons who abuse and the adults who know them. In Vermont, STOP IT NOW!'s public health intervention uses three strategies: 1) a media campaign targeting all Vermont residents to increase residents' awareness of abuse and its signs; 2) an outreach campaign targeting high-risk families that provides a helpline for adults with questions about or experience of sexual abuse and provides information to agencies working with these families; and 3) a strategy to explore partnerships with Vermont decision-makers and leaders and develop approaches to prevent child sexual abuse.
Community factors may be critical to the success of these programs. Vermont has treatment programs throughout the state and within the prison system. In this setting, STOP IT NOW! can guarantee treatment to anyone who enters the legal system. Vermont also offers accessible media markets for its small population. Finally, Vermont has a coalition of victim and abuser treatment organizations that supported the introduction of this approach to prevention.
The findings in this report probably underestimate the actual number of self-reported cases of child sexual abuse because the state attorneys' offices and sex offender treatment providers do not maintain an official record of self-reports. If information or evidence was insufficient to warrant an investigation, cases might never have reached the state attorneys' offices. In addition, case-patients also may have left the state or met with a therapist not specifically trained in sex offender treatment; these persons would not have been included in the survey.
Evaluation of programs such as STOP IT NOW! will help determine the potential efficacy and need for media and outreach campaigns that focus on persons who abuse and the adults who know them. A collaborative effort between public health officials, sex offender treatment providers, and the criminal justice system in the model of STOP IT NOW! may benefit the well being of children.

Spain had their big derby over the weekend so it's only natural that England would want to follow-up with one of their biggest rivalry games just two days later. Such is the case on Tuesday when Manchester City travels the short distance to Old Trafford for a Manchester Derby with massive title implications.
More from our team sites
More from our team sites
This match is one of City's "games in hand" over Chelsea and Liverpool, which means that in addition to the normal pressure involved with a derby, Manuel Pellegrini must factor in how important three points is to his team. Full points for City this week -- a win over United and a win over Arsenal on Saturday -- would put City in the driver's seat for the 2013-14 title.
Manchester United on the other hand will not be winning a second straight league title. What they can do on Tuesday is put a major dent in City's chances of winning their second in three years. Despite United's struggles this season, causing some misery for their neighbors would likely help David Moyes win some much needed points with fans.
Both teams will be without their first choice strikers with City's Sergio Agüero (hamstring) and United's Robin van Persie (knee) both on the sidelines.
Match Date/Time: 7:45 p.m. local, 3:45 p.m. ET
Venue: Old Trafford, Manchester, England
TV: NBC Sports Network (U.S.), Sky Sports 1 (U.K.), TSN (Canada)

"After upgraded Windows 8 Pro 64bit, I found the players work with the files sometimes, and sometimes display that my favorite HD videos or whatever it is. and other times the files play the audio, but display the green thing. Just like stuttering video, choppy video playback, or poor display performance can happen when I play videos, they aren't working properly. My problem is that not all these formats are supported by windows. How to watch these movies easily on Windows 8.1(Pro) with ease? Is it fixable?"
As we know, We can't play MKV, AVI, VOB, WMV, MPG, M4V, Flash video(FLV/F4V) , etc. HD videos on Windows 8.1(Pro) directly. Well, to play MKV, VOB, MPG, Tivo, MTS, FLV/F4V on Windows 8.1(Pro), the easy way is that to convert HD video to Windows 8.1(Pro) with compatible MP4 format using Video Converter for Windows 8.1.
Here Pavtube Video Converter Ultimate is your best choice. It can support windows 8.1/pro with easy quick interface, and great final file quality. It supports batch conversion and you can also trim, crop, add special effect, deinterlace or edit audio to your video files.

How to Enable HD Videos/Movies to playback on Windows 8.1(Pro)?
Step 1. Load HD Video files.
Fistly download it. After downloading, install and run the best HD Video Converter Ultimate on your PC, And click "Add Video" button to load your MKV, MOV, MTS, M2TS, VOB, AVI, AVCHD, Tivo…video files.

Click "Format", find "Commen Video" -> H.264 Video (*.mp4)" as Windows 8.1(Pro) most compatible format.
As your Windows devices, you you need to set a format for 1080p/720p HD video to Windows 8.1/8 tablets/phones conversion. Click "Format", find "Windows" -> Microsoft Surface Windows RT/Pro H.264 Video (*.mp4)".
If you like, you can click "Settings" to change the video encoder, resolution, frame rate, etc. as you wish. According to my experience, the file size and video quality is based more on bitrate than resolution which means bitrate higher results in big file size, and lower visible quality loss, and vice versa.
Step 3. Start Converting.
When the above mentioned steps finished you can click the big red "Convert" to start converting MKV, AVI, VOB, MPG, Tivo, WMV, MTS, M4V, FLV/F4V to Windows 8.1(Pro) at fast speed.

Fries concerns
I'm a concerned citizen of Fries. I've got some kids that play football over here. Last year they took up over $1,000 on a car wash to buy new equipment and I just wonder why none of the equipment showed up. Also, at the town meeting, you got to either be a member on the board to speak or you are not allowed to speak. I would like to know why.

His death may carry still another lesson, one about the devastating costs of mental illness.

A recent joint study from IDC and the National University of Singapore (NUS) predicts that companies around the globe will spend around $491 billion in 2014 for fixes and recovery from data breaches and malware. The sponsor, Microsoft, also noted that pirated software tweaked with intent is a common method of getting inside. Consumers will likely spend $25 billion as a result of those security threats. $491 billion is a lot of change and in the spirit of Mobile Threats Rise 261% in Perspective, I wanted to know what else costs $491 billion.
Apparently, quite a few things!
U.S. motorists may spend a record $491 billion for gasoline this year. Expensive oil and increased exports have kept our fuel prices high this year. We are still under the 2008 average gas price record but we will still spend more due to gas going up sooner in the year and staying high longer. I know I've seen $4.11 here in California where the average is $3.94. While the winter blend production does bring some relief, don't expect major drops due to higher global demand along with the various feuds in the world.
Back in 2005, the US House of Representatives passed a $491 billion defense bill. This was when we were still in Iraq and the only reason I find this interesting is that the cyber-war can now cost as much as real wars. Not really apple to apples admittedly, but I often talk about how our digital worlds are colliding integrating with our physical lives. Either way, the costs can be very real.
Now at the 3 year mark of the Fukushima meltdown, property damage so far has been assessed at approximately US$200 billion but some estimates show that the total burden will be $491 billion. While one could never put a price on the 19,000 people lost from the earthquake and tsunami, it is kinda spooky that breaches and malware are on par with nuclear disasters.
According to the Global Business Travel Association (GBTA) Foundation business travel was responsible for about 3% of U.S. GDP in 2012 or $491 billion. Essentially, every dollar of business travel spending generated about $1.28 in GDP. Of the $491 billion total, $208 billion accrued directly to businesses that served travelers or meeting attendees.
In 2011 the European chemical industry contributed to 20.9% of the world's chemical sales valued at €2353 billion, generating € 491 billion of revenues and employing 1.16 million people.
In 2012-13, India's total imports was $491 billion according to their Finance Minister.
And finally, the Earth is 491 billion feet from sun, give or take.
The malware market is on par with the likes of defense budgets, nuclear disasters, overall energy consumption and an entire country's import bill. It is often hard to quantify such large dollar amounts but when compared to the other $491 billion items, you can get a real sense of the magnitude.

Bilberry (Vaccinium myrtillus) is a dark blue edible fruit that is believed to be used by the British soldiers during wars' to improve their night vision. Bilberry is used widely as a European herbal alternative medicine for better vision.
Age' poor lighting' bad diet' strain and stress may play a large part in harming the normal eye vision. There are studies which state that exposure to very bright light may destroy the photoreceptors in the eye. When exposed to sunlight' the eye may succumb to damage caused by free radicals. This' over a period of time could contribute to retinal damage and in extreme cases cause vision loss.
Rich in the flavonoid anthocyanosides' Bilberry is believed to be used in the connective tissues of the eyes. There are some private researches that state that this Planetary Herbals supplement supports capillary integrity of the retina.
Rhodopsin' present in the retinal rods is very important for night vision. It is also said that the Bilberry extracts from this Planetary Herbal supplement may help eyes adapt to different variations in light intensity and increases the blood vessels circulation around the eyes.

The Ethisphere Institute, an international think-tank focused on the creation, advancement and sharing of best practices in business ethics, corporate social responsibility, anti-corruption and sustainability has published their 6th annual list of the World's Most Ethical Companies.
According to Ethisphere, each 2012 honoree was chosen for promoting ethical business standards and practices by exceeding legal minimums for compliance, introducing innovative ideas that benefit the public and forcing their competitors to follow suit.
Ethisphere will celebrate the winning companies at a dinner in New York keynoted by former U.S. Secretary of State Madeleine K. Albright.
You can find the full list on Ethisphere's web site and check out more coverage on Forbes.
Congratulations to Microsoft! Well deserved!
I call Bullshit. Maybe Microsoft is *now* one of the most ethical companies, but if anyone asked this question in the 90's, I doubt that any software professional in a competing organization that dealt with MS's 'Embrace and Extend' tactics, patent thefts (ie: disk-compression algorythms) - payoffs to Apple and other companies as settlements of patent infringment, use of their OS to provide unfair advantage (early use in their office suite of dde and ole PRIOR to making the hooks visible, handicapping Lotus, WordPerfect and other vendors) Not to mention what they did to Netscape....
In todays world tho, that is ancient history...

Fox & Friends co-hosts Brian Kilmeade and Gretchen Carlson touted articles on right-wing website WorldNetDaily.com and in the The New York Sun purporting to show that, in Carlson's words, "[s]enior terrorist leaders" have indicated "that they hope Americans sweep the Democrats into power because of the party's position on withdrawing from Iraq."
In recent days, Brit Hume, Bill O'Reilly, and Glenn Beck have all asserted that media bias was to blame for a dearth of coverage on the controversy surrounding Sen. John Kerry's "botched joke." To the contrary, the story has consistently been the top story on network- and cable-news broadcasts and has been the subject of front-page stories in most major newspapers.
MSNBC's David Shuster invited viewers to vote on the "nastiest" campaign advertisement among the "the five nastiest ads" culled by Shuster. However, Shuster's focus on "nast[iness]" obscured questions about the advertisements' accuracy; he also included on his list two Democratic advertisements that are based upon reported facts. In a discussion following one airing of Shuster's segment, CNBC's Donny Deutsch misrepresented one of the Democratic ads.
During an interview with Michael Steele, CNN's Wolf Blitzer did not ask Steele to reconcile his conflicting positions on the war in Iraq. He also failed to challenge Steele's assertion that he is "not running away from President Bush" and that he has "never run away from" being a Republican, despite his having been exposed as the "candidate" who reportedly told The Washington Post that he "probably" did not want President Bush to campaign with him.
Chris Matthews declared that he didn't think Republicans "would have put up with" Bill Clinton's affair with Monica Lewinsky because "I think a lot of Republicans were very tough on Richard Nixon." But Republicans apparently "put up with" former Rep. Mark Foley even after House leaders learned -- months and possibly years ago -- of potential misconduct on the part of Foley toward underage former House pages.
In a segment on whether Osama bin Laden will release a propaganda tape prior to the midterm elections -- as he did two years ago -- NBC's Lisa Myers omitted any discussion of bin Laden's motivations in releasing the 2004 message, which the CIA reportedly determined to be an effort to assist in the re-election of President Bush.
George F. Will falsely claimed that Republican National Committee chairman (RNC) Ken Mehlman "was appalled" by a controversial RNC ad attacking Tennessee Democratic Senate candidate Harold Ford Jr. that critics have characterized as racist. In fact, Mehlman has repeatedly defended the ad as "fair." Will also asserted that the economy "is just objectively good," joined by Time's Jay Carney, who asserted that real wages have been "coming up a little bit lately"; in fact, even though productivity has expanded by 14 percent since November 2001, real hourly wages have remained largely unchanged.
CNN reported a claim by Saddam Hussein's lawyer that the release of the verdict in his trial on charges of crimes against humanity two days before U.S. congressional midterm elections is timed to influence that vote, but CNN did not provide evidence that might lend credence to such an accusation: If true, this would be far from the first time that the Bush administration has timed an Iraq- or national security-related event for political advantage.

Five street signs were stolen off Glenwood Avenue between Aylesboro Avenue and Ewing Road.
The theft was reported to police at about 2:30 a.m. Tuesday, according to reports.
If those who took the signs are apprehended, they could face felony vandalism charges.
Boardman, otherwise known as Youngstown South.
White flight, the Columbiana area is becoming the new Boardman.
The cockroaches (I think you know who the cockroaches are)have come to Boardman, its too late now. Have other police agencies and local gov'ts asked themselves how Canfield and Poland have avoided this investation for so long? They have been known for ages as not a cockroach friendly place, and even the cockroaches know it. It seems to have worked. Just a thought
The middle of the night seems a strange time for someone to notice 5 street signs are missing . There must be more to the story .
@ vinytalk:
I would never wish anything bad to Columbiana, just saying that it is becoming the destination of those who want to escape the ills of Boardman.
It is the same as in the 1950's and 60's when Boardman was the go to place for Youngstowners who could afford to escape the growing problems there.

Students at High Point Elementary School worked hard all year to become Math Commanders. More than 120 students in grades three through five mastered at least 100 Accelerated Math objectives throughout the school year. Many students, including Addyson W., pushed themselves to master 200 objectives! All of the High Point Math Commanders were recognized at the end-of-year awards ceremony and received a trophy, certificate, and this awesome t-shirt that was created to match the school-wide Book Dynasty theme. One of the fifth-grade core classes had 100% of its students to reach Math Commander status by mastering at least 100 objectives! This class has challenged all of the third, fourth, and fifth grade classes next year to rise to the challenge of 100% mastering 100 objectives! At High Point Elementary, math makes us happy, happy, happy. Our school is full of Math Commanders, Jack!
High Point Elementary Kindergarten students have learned some new names. Mifuu, Rin, Manami, Shingo, Kazuma; These are not typical names heard in Washington County, Virginia. Yet, they are familiar names in Mrs. Caudill's kindergarten class at High Point Elementary School. These are the first names of some of the Japanese pen pals of Mrs. Caudill's students. The pen pals are 4th graders at Okinawa Amicus International School in Okinawa, Japan. Their English teacher, Amanda Green Arrington, is a former High Point/Wallace/John Battle student. She now teaches in Japan where she lives with her husband, who is on a five-year deployment with the U.S. Air Force. Mrs. Caudill's students are learning about Japan, its culture, climate, and history, along with writing and communication skills. They have experienced several Japanese activities, including folding origami animals, and eating with chopsticks. They each received a letter and a photo from their new Japanese friends. They will be sending letters back to their pen pals, along with some American items, including forks, and their favorite candy, Nerds. They are also planning to send a stuffed squirrel as a class mascot, because there are no squirrels on Okinawa. It has really been a fun and educational experience for the students. "We got to fold paper - it's called Origami," said Alia. Makinzy commented, "Eating with chop sticks was fun," and Delissa added, "We are going to send them forks because they don't eat with forks like us." All of the children can now find Japan on the globe, and know a little about what it is like to be an elementary student there. Mrs. Caudill hopes her students will stay in communication with their new friends for years to come.
High Point Elementary Principal, Sherry King, traveled to Washington, D.C. on May 1st for the honored privilege of meeting President Barack Obama. Mrs. King reflected that meeting the President was undoubtedly one of the most momentous life experiences for her both personally and professionally. "Although I have visited Washington D.C. on numerous occasions, enjoying all the history it has to offer, never did I imagine that I was destined to meet the President of the United States. While it was certainly wonderful to experience the grandeur of the White House with its historic and magnificent features, the real thrill and true honor was standing face to face with America's leader, representing our nation's elementary principals." While at the White House, Mrs. King was also part of a celebration honoring top teachers from around the nation. During the ceremony, held in the East Room, the President said, "It's a teacher's job to erase the negative messages and fill those boards with caring words and inspire confidence and strengthen values. Some of today's students may not even know what a chalkboard is anymore, but they do know what a teacher gives them stays with them for a lifetime because teachers matter."
As the fourth nine-weeks drew to a close, students at Greendale Elementary worked diligently to not only meet, but to also exceed, their reading goals so that they could be entered in the drawing for the final journey of the year. Ten lucky students, Lacie B., Charlize D., Brayden D., Meghan G., Kiera G., Ella H., Judah N., Jake O., Brady P., and Makayla R., were selected to travel to the Virginia Highlands Airport with teacher Mrs. Teresa Halsey and librarian Mrs. Valerie Cox, where they were excited to meet Pilot Bob Dorton and Airport Manager Mickey Hines. After a tour of the airport, during which the students were able to explore a hangar and sit in the cockpit of a Cessna Citation, they ate a picnic lunch from Subway in the Dorton Aviation classroom. During lunch, Mr. Dorton demonstrated a flight simulator and encouraged each student to consider flight lessons if he/she was interested in becoming a pilot one day. Mrs. Halsey also shared some of her son's experiences taking flight lessons from Mr. Dorton! We are appreciative of Mr. Bob Dorton for the wonderful experience he provided for us, Mr. John White for arranging this opportunity, and Mr. Mickey Hines for sharing the Virginia Highlands Airport with us! These students arrived back at Greendale just in time to join their classmates as they watched the movie Planes and enjoyed a sherbet snack! In this case, our students truly could imagine themselves "taking flight" through reading. Although this was the last journey of the year, our hope is that our students continue to journey through the books they read over the summer!

Harris confirmed the news with MMA Fighting via text message on Tuesday.
Harris (17-3) had won three straight fights inside the Octagon after signing with the organization following an unsuccessful bid on season seven of "The Ultimate Fighter." The decision loss to Falcao is his first official loss in the UFC, and yet it was enough to bring about his release after the lackluster finish to Saturday's fight.
What makes Harris' release particularly surprising is that, in addition to being a very respectable 3-1 in the Octagon, he'd also won Knockout of the Night bonuses in two of his four fights with the UFC.
The latter of those two -- a violent slam knockout of Dave Branch at UFC 116 -- even landed Harris on ESPN's Sportscenter. After that highlight reel finish, Harris said, he became known to many casual fans simply as "the dude that slammed that dude."
Now, after a loss in a fight that saw a time-keeping controversy and an uninspired ending, he finds himself suddenly out of a job.

All you need for a Maine Lake Side Vacation
We would come again to this cottage. Washer and dryer was a pleasant surprise. The location is perfect. Right on the water. It is not fancy but has everything you need. Even videos and games for a rainy day. It reminds us of the days we would spend at grandma and grandpa's cottage with the Notty pine kitchen. Campfire at night was fun.
A beautiful, quiet, space house
The photos don't do justice to this house, It is actually larger in real life than the photos show. It is a beautiful, spacious house in a quiet setting. All three bedrooms are huge. Everything is very tastefully done inside, with a complete kitchen and dining room. There is a TV in every bedroom, and the livingroom is large. We were very pleased with everything. Highly recommended
My long awaited review! Stayed here for Labor day weekend last year. Place is kept very clean. It is nice and quiet exactly what I wanted. Was fortunate enough to meet Martin's brother wondering the property. The chlorine in the hot tub was overwhelming, but felt nice overall. I would definitely go back and stay here again.

Located just to the right of Dusty Trail this route generally follows a low angle blunt arete. Although low angle, the arete is deceptively smooth in places. Overall, the climbing is fairly continuous at a reasonable level on very good stone. Be careful, this stretches a 60m rope! This goes to the same anchor as Dusty Trail. One minor runout at midheight can be minimized with a 3/4" cam.

Jessie J Releases New Music Video, Faces Criticism From Fans
Yesterday Jessie J released the music video for "Laserlight." Featuring David Guetta, while the music is no departure for the singer vocally, fans had something else to say about the video.
"Not going to lie @jessiejofficial I dont really like the laserlight vid, I can speak for a lot of heartbeats we don't really think its "you," one fan tweeted.
Jessie J. shot back and asked that same fan a question.
And what's "me"? RT @Jessiefacts: Not going to lie @jessiejofficial I dont really like (cont) tl.gd/gsupel
— JESSIE J (@jessiejofficial) April 9, 2012
"Laserlight" has already amassed over 100,000 views. Throughout the video, Jessie J is seen in diverse outfits: a studded leather jacket, pink corset and colorful clubbing gear. Despite fan criticism, Jessie J let her followers know it is an authentic video.
"I was asking genuinely. Why is everything made into a HUGE thing. I respect everyones opinion but I will always do what I love. Doesn't mean everyone is going to like it. Life isn't like that. But I am me. Always me. :)" she tweeted.
Different is good, change is normal, growth is important.
— JESSIE J (@jessiejofficial) April 9, 2012
Clearly accepting of her fans having a difference of opinion, Jessie J acknowledged one saying she knows it's not an attack on her as a musician.
#heartbeats are just giving your opinion . I think it's important for @jessiejofficial . clear that this is no attack , it's love .
— Márcia Rodrigues (@MarciaaRodrig) April 9, 2012
Jessie J's upcoming album, Laserlight is due out May 13.

In response to implementation of the healthier school lunch required by the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010, the American Council on Exercise issued the following statement:
The new school lunch provides students with healthy and balanced meals that are rich in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains and have less sodium, saturated fat, and empty calories than the old school lunch. Not surprisingly, students accustomed to lunches filled with high-salt, fried foods have not readily adjusted to the change. Some students, teachers, and politicians have expressed concern that children are not eating the lunches and consequently may not be meeting their nutritional needs or may finish lunch hungry.
The new school lunch provides 850 calories for high school students, 700 calories for middle school students, and 650 calories for elementary school students. It provides a nutritionally-dense and balanced meal, reflecting recommendations of the Dietary Guidelines. A child who eats the school lunch should receive more than adequate calories and nutrients to meet needs for optimal growth and development. Many school districts provide unlimited access to fruits and vegetables for children who are still hungry, or for young athletes and other active children who require more calories than the average student.
It should come as no surprise that the students are not readily embracing the healthier school lunch. If given a choice between french fries or broccoli, 99 percent of children will choose the french fries. However, given the current epidemic of childhood obesity and physical inactivity, schools and communities cannot afford to cater to a child's preference for sweet and salty foods. School is a place where parents send their children to gain an education and learn how to be healthy and care for themselves. The school lunch should serve as an example of the highest health standards in practice.
Parents, professionals, and community members concerned about the new school lunch should consider the following three points:

YWCA visitation center's closing brings uncertainty
"It wouldn't necessarily cover us if we had to expand the level of service," Paradiso said. The YWCA has told him it services about 25 families, he said.
• Legislation regarding visitation centers has passed both the New Hampshire House and Senate and awaits Gov. Maggie Hassan's signature. It adds language that allows judges to specify that visitation centers must use metal detectors and trained security. It also calls for studying whether centers should be licensed.
Without them, judges may allow unsupervised visitations in unsafe situations, said Maureen McDonald, a spokesman for the Coalition Against Domestic and Sexual Violence. But her organization questions whether resources on visitation centers could be better spent on prevention and victim services.
Karen McCall said she previously worked at the YWCA and now works at a local safe place for abuse victims. She said batterers will use a visitation center for six months, earn a good report and ask a judge for unsupervised visitation.
"Obviously, in situations where there's a divorce, we need to allow a child to have connection with both parents," said Deputy New Hampshire Attorney General Ann Rice. Her agency acts as a pass through for the grants that fund the visitation centers.
