The movie Zero Dark Thirty is misleading and "grossly inaccurate" in its suggestion that torture produced the tip that led the US military to find terrorist leader Osama bin Laden, three senators said on Wednesday in a letter to the head of Sony Pictures Entertainment.
The filmmakers dispute that interpretation and encourage people to see their movie, already considered a top Oscar contender, before characterising it.
The members of the Senate Intelligence committee - Dianne Feinstein, Carl Levin and John McCain - insisted that Sony and its president and CEO, Michael Lynton, had an obligation to alter the movie and make clear that torture in the hunt for bin Laden was fiction and not based on fact.
"We are fans of many of your movies, and we understand the special role that movies play in our lives, but the fundamental problem is that people who see Zero Dark Thirty will believe that the events it portrays are facts," the three senators wrote. "The film therefore has the potential to shape American public opinion in a disturbing and misleading manner."
McCain has insisted that the waterboarding of al-Qaeda's No.3 leader, Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, did not provide information that led to the bin Laden's compound in Pakistan.
Last year, McCain asked then-CIA Director Leon Panetta for the facts, and he said the hunt for bin Laden did not begin with fresh information from Mohammed. In fact, the name of bin Laden's courier, Abu Ahmed al-Kuwaiti, came from a detainee held in another country.
Feinstein, who heads the Intelligence committee, backed up McCain's assessment that waterboarding of Mohammed did not produce the tip that led to bin Laden.
In their letter to Sony, the politicians said the "use of torture in the fight against terrorism did severe damage to America's values and standing that cannot be justified or expunged. It remains a stain on our national conscience. We cannot afford to go back to these dark times, and with the release of Zero Dark Thirty, the filmmakers and your production studio are perpetuating the myth that torture is effective. You have a social and moral obligation to get the facts right."
Director Kathryn Bigelow and screenwriter Mark Boal said in a statement from Sony that they depicted "a variety of controversial practices and intelligence methods that were used in the name of finding bin Laden".
Bigelow and Boal, who won Oscars for The Hurt Locker, said the new film showed that no single method was responsible in the successful manhunt for bin Laden, and no single scene in isolation captures the total effort the movie dramatises.
McCain said he watched the movie on Monday night after receiving a copy.
* Zero Dark Thirty opens in New Zealand cinemas on January 31.

Picture Cleopatra running in a pitch-black maze, shooting down possessed flying mummies and skeletons, and trying to beat the odd(of death) with the help of the-orb-that-lives (DASLEBEN the name). Intriguing, yet thrilling, right?
But that's not even close to the actual description. We will wow, that's a promise. The progress and development of the game will come real soon in our next news, but for now, lets us all enjoy our design of Cleopatra.

Stand Tall with Sarah's Inn raises over $93,000 to end violence
Oak Park non-profit Sarah's Inn hosts annual signature fundraiser
By Sarah's Inn
Oak Park, IL (October 31, 2013) - Complete with dazzling decorations and delectable treats, the second annual Stand Tall with Sarah's Inn signature fundraiser on October 19 was filled with good friends and inspiring conversations. Organized and hosted by an event committee of Oak Park residents, the event raised more than $93,000 for Sarah's Inn.
"The day began with Board members on ladders and Dudes Makin' a Difference and New Era student volunteers from Oak Park and River Forest High School moving tables and boxes," says Sarah's Inn Board President Dale Hayes Clarke. "The event was a success because of the diversity of people coming together to support our work to make our community a safer place to live."
More than 200 people attended Stand Tall with Sarah's Inn, which was located at Cheney Mansion in Oak Park, and over one-third of the donors were new to Sarah's Inn. The event was supported by over 40 sponsors representing local community members and businesses.
"We are thrilled at the outpouring of support from our community, including all of our generous sponsors who underwrote the event and our local vendors who helped us keep our event costs down through their in-kind donations," says Sarah's Inn Development Director Juliet Yera. "As a result, we were able to maximize fundraising for our programs."
The event featured an original photo essay entitled "How have you been inspired by Sarah's Inn?" From a survivor of domestic violence seeking options to an adolescent girl standing up to online bullying, each photo subject represented an individual impacted by Sarah's Inn programs.
Founded in 1981 by Oak Park residents, Sarah's Inn is a community-driven non-profit that works to break the cycle of domestic violence through crisis intervention, community education, and violence prevention programs. Sarah's Inn has served local community members affected by domestic violence for decades, and is the curriculum development and teaching partner for cyber-safety and anti-bullying education at Brooks and Julian Middle Schools in Oak Park and other local middle schools, as well as the Step Back violence prevention program at Oak Park and River Forest High School.
"This event was a success because of the people," says Sarah's Inn Board member and event committee Co-Chair Kim Green. "Our generous supporters, event committee, and Sarah's Inn staff all came together to support our mission."
The mission of Sarah's Inn is to improve the lives of those affected by domestic violence and break the cycle of violence for future generations.

Hundreds Rally to Mark the First Anniversary of Patrick Dorismond's Death
Over five hundred people gathered on Saturday on Church Avenue in Brooklyn to mark the 1st anniversary of the death of Patrick Dorismond, a 26-year-old Haitian-American who was shot dead by an undercover New York City policeman. Among those present at the rally, organized by the Haitian Coalition for Justice, were Dorismond's sister and mother.
Dorismond was on his way home when he was approached by undercover police allegedly on assignment to fight drug dealing. According to friends who witnessed the incident, Dorismond was stopped by a man who asked him where he could buy drugs. Dorismond got angry when his assertions that he didn't know about such matters went unheeded.
A second plainclothes officer then entered the argument, which ended in the Haitian-American man lying dead on the sidewalk. Nine days later, thousands marched in a funeral procession through Brooklyn. Police attacked some of the mourners and arrested 27. Among those beaten and arrested was Democracy Now! Technical Director, who joins us now in the studio.

'Promising' treatments for Alzheimer's to be discussed in Dahlonega
Ken Stanford
DAHLONEGA - Alzheimer's is a little-understood condition with a far-reaching impact. One in eight older Americans are affected, and it is the sixth-leading cause of death in the United States. The prognosis for Alzheimer's patients is grim, as the disease is progressive. Very few effective treatments have been developed for the disease, leaving those diagnosed and their families feeling little hope.

 Dr. William Frey II, professor at the University of Minnesota and Founder and Co- Director of the Alzheimer's Research Center at Regions Hospital, has developed an innovative new treatment that's bringing hope to patients with Alzheimer's and other brain disorders. The treatment is being employed by Dr. Frey and his staff at the Alzheimer's Research Center, and is called "intranasal insulin." This treatment essentially involves a nose spray through which insulin is introduced to the body, and has shown to, "improve the memory, attention and functioning of Alzheimer's patients." Because of the efforts of Dr. Frey, the federal government has now named intranasal insulin, "as one of the most promising potential treatments for Alzheimer's."

 Chestatee Regional Hospital in Dahlonega will be providing a chance for people in Northeast Georgia to hear Dr. Frey talk about his groundbreaking research and treatment options for patients with Alzheimer's. He will be speaking at 1:00 at Dahlonega Baptist Church on Friday, February 7.

 If you plan to attend, please RSVP by calling (706) 429-6665.

Berks County authorities are calling on the public to get involved in the investigation of mysterious homicide.
They want all residents who have security cameras to check the footage from Wednesday morning.
That's when police say a Latino man in his 40s was killed, and his body later dumped on the River Road exit ramp off of Rt. 12 in Reading.
"We're looking for the public's help. If they saw anything unusual," said John Adams, Berks County District Attorney.
Neighbors like Nick Benny say he's ready to get involved in the investigation. He is one of several residents on his block with security cameras.
"I'll review it. Yeah, and then I'll call them and let them know," said Benny.
Police are also hoping somebody may have surveillance footage that will reveal clues as to where the victim was killed.
An autopsy on Thursday determined that the man died of a gunshot wound to his upper body, said Sgt. John Solecki, Reading Police Dept.
So far, no family members have contacted police, authorities said.
Investigators say if they don't hear from family members soon, they may have to release the victim's name to the media.
They say it is key to find out who the victim was with before this crime so they can move forward with this investigation.
Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Alert: Berks County immediately.
The number is 877-373-9913.
Anonymous calls are accepted, and you could earn up to a $10,000 reward for information leading to an arrest.

Students worry about rising toll of mental illness: Goar
Alliance of student leaders calls on Ottawa to address rise in mental illness on Canada's campuses.
|Report an Error
Share via Email
Long before statistics show a trend, people sense a change in their world. That is happening now at Canada's colleges and universities.
Students see more of their friends than ever before seeking help for mental illness. Clinics report more demand for psychological services. Everyone on campus — undergrads, post-grads, researchers, teaching assistants, faculty and administrative staff — is touched directly or indirectly by the high cost of education, heavy student debt loads and the scarcity of jobs for graduates. For some, the anxiety is debilitating.
There is very little numerical evidence of a shift. Health Canada , the Canadian Mental Health Association and the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health are all disseminating the same estimate they've always used: 10 to 20 per cent of Canadian youth are affected by mental illness. Statistics Canada shows elevated rates of depression and substance abuse in the 15 to 24 age bracket — but that has always been the case.
Despite the lack of hard data, the Canadian Alliance of Student Associations is so sure the toll of mental illness is rising that it has just released a policy paper calling for a national plan to address adolescent mental illness.
The alliance, made up of 22 student associations representing 280,000 young people, is urging all three federal parties to incorporate its proposals into their 2015 election platforms. "By putting the CASA's recommendations into action, the government will not only work toward improving the lives of the Canada's youth and student population, but also the health of Canada's future labour market," says Jonathan Champagne , executive director of the alliance.
Student leaders are asking for four specific commitments:
Although the provinces control health-care and education, this is a pan-Canadian problem, the students argue. Ottawa is the only level of government capable of pulling together Canada's disparate, gap-ridden mental health system. Moreover Statistics Canada, the Canada Student Loans Program and the Mental Health Commission of Canada fall under federal jurisdiction, they point out.
It took the research team about a year to compile as much information as it could, draft the policy paper and get everybody to sign on. The effort was led by one student from the University of Moncton, but endorsed by the entire board and staff.
Champagne admits they couldn't establish a direct link between today's bleak job market for graduates and the prevalence of mental illness on campus. All they could find were studies showing "stable, productive employment has a strong positive effect on overall wellness."
They're right — this isn't good enough.
Their "road map for federal action" does not mesh well with the government's agenda. The Conservatives are slashing Statistics Canada and scaling back health transfers to the provinces. They haven't said whether the Mental Health Commission of Canada will exist after 2017 when its mandate expires. Their two top priorities are balancing the budget and cutting taxes.
The opposition parties are still formulating their policies. The Liberals are weighing a resolution , approved at their convention in February, to increase mental health spending to 8 to 10 per cent of the national health budget (it now stands at 5.5 per cent). The New Democrats have pledged to boost funding to mental health services, without providing specifics.
Students are the face of Canada's jobless recovery. They followed the advice of educators and policy-makers: stayed in school, got good marks and acquired marketable skills. Now they are mired in debt as they hurtle toward a job market saturated with recent graduates. Employers aren't hiring. Boomers aren't retiring. The economy isn't picking up. It all preys on their minds.
The surprise is that they're asking for so little.
Carol Goar's column appears Monday, Wednesday and Friday.

Great Outdoors
Gardens make my summer. All you have to do is add some splishy splashy and you have an instant antidote to the daily miseries of city dwelling. So with fall around the corner, an old college friend and I decided to booze it up outdoors one last time. The site of our indiscretion was Cherry Tree, a recently opened Irish pub with a much raved-about backyard. Outside the large space was packed with young twentysomethings. There amid candles and chitchat we sipped fresh mojitos (a $4 special) on one of the several long wooden benchesa size perfect for large groupswhile starring up in awe at the incredibly tall tree that had given this watering hole its moniker. Unfortunately at 11 p.m. this haven closes, and the yard tranquility doesn't transfer into the inside. There with a Jägermeister machine, a chalkboard listing the Top 10 drunks of the week, a giant Irish flag, and a bartender administering beer bong hits ($5) to fellow imbibers and a dancing Guinness mascot, the atmosphere felt more Emerald Isle frat party than local Park Slope saloon. Nonetheless the revelry was contagious. Soon my friend and I found even our post-collegiate selves pondering whether we should give the beer bong a try. Thankfully a Whitney Houston song (it was '80s music night after all) sparked an impromptu karaoke session, sparing us from funnelingan action I somewhat regretted the next day, since it would have provided needed amnesia to the fact that summer is almost over.

Is Alex Smith The QB To Lead Kansas City Chiefs Deep In Playoffs?
Damon Huard. Tyler Thigpen. Brady Quinn. These are just three names off the less-than-impressive list of quarterbacks that have started a game for the Kansas City Chiefs since 2007. There have been 10, in case you were wondering. So in March, when it became official that the Chiefs had traded two draft picks to acquire Alex Smith from the San Francisco 49ers, Chiefs fans were ecstatic and rightfully so.
Fans had just been forced to endure a season that saw Matt Cassel throw for 12 interceptions and only six touchdowns. The majority of his interceptions coming on downright awful throws. After much ire from disgruntled Chiefs fans, it was obvious that Kansas City would have to pursue alternative options.
But, instead of dipping into a shallow pool of quarterbacks in last April's draft, Kansas City opted to go for Smith, who boasted a 70.1 percent completion percentage in 2012 before being benched in favor of the younger Colin Kaepernick.
It appeared that one's trash was another's treasure as Kansas City had found their quarterback of the future for a relatively small cost. Chiefs fans were happy and all seemed well in Chiefs Nation. After Smith led the Chiefs to a 9-0 start, Andy Reid was being hailed as a genius and last year's debacle was all but forgotten.
But, after struggling down the stretch while facing the highest quality of competition on their schedule, Chiefs fans must begin to wonder if Smith truly is their man for the future.
Smith has led a Chiefs offense that ranks 24th in the league in passing with an average of 209 yards per game. To put that in perspective, ranking 22nd and 23rd respectively were the Jacksonville Jaguars and Minnesota Vikings. If you didn't put it together yourself, that's not very good.
Add that to the fact that Smith has shown a knack for falling off in the second half of games, and you have a recipe for disaster. Smith has been money in the first half this season, throwing for 1,943 yards, 15 touchdowns and only one interception. But compare that to only 1,370 yards, eight touchdowns and six interceptions in the second half of games,, and it's quite obvious that his performance drops off considerably when the Chiefs needs him the most.
Smith supporters often reference his accuracy when making a case for the former No. 1 overall draft pick. These numbers can be deceiving. Throughout his career, Smith has had the luxury of playing with a top-tier defense. Whether it was the 49ers early in his career or this year's stifling Kansas City defense, Smith hasn't had to win many games by himself. He has thrived on low-risk, low-reward passes, rarely throwing the ball more than 20 yards downfield.
This is Kansas City's offense, and it's worked for them the majority of the season so many will say "if it ain't broke, don't fix it." But, this mantra will only last so long before Smith's inability to win games, rather than simply manage them, is exposed.
Smith has been routinely praised for his high football IQ, and the laud is well deserved. Smith limits his mistakes and rarely makes a truly bad decision with the football. One of the more cerebral quarterbacks in the league, Smith knows how to manage the clock and exploit opposing defenses' weaknesses. This is a major reason why Smith has been so successful as a starter in the league.
But, as the Chiefs move deeper into the playoffs, defenses will get better and the weaknesses will grow fewer. The Chiefs will need a quarterback who can lead a march down the field in late-game situations, but don't expect Smith to be that quarterback.
Ultimately, I don't think Smith can lead Kansas City deep into the playoffs this season, or any season in the future. Smith is by no means a bad quarterback, but he's also not a great one. Smith will have to pull off a Trent Dilfer-esque playoff run if the Chiefs plan on advancing far into the playoffs with him as their field general.
If a quarterback like Blake Bortles or Johnny Manziel slips to the Chiefs late in the first round of the 2014 NFL Draft, the Chiefs would be wise to seriously consider calling a quarterback's name.

It is overpriced. Better museums for children this age with more age-appropriate things in Raleigh and San Antonio are newer and less expensive! The one area designed for ages 6 and under she could enjoy was overrun by older children. They tried to take things out of her hands. Not pleasant.

This is a wonderful place to take young and old, alike! The exhibits are fascinating and kids learning while doing!
What a great place to take your family of all ages! There is so much to explore. So many hours of "hands on" learning to play with. I believe there will be more scientists developed because of this wonderful place!
We take our grandsons here several times a year and they always enjoy it. It is in the River Market district, a lovely area of downtown Little Rock.
This is a great children's museum. Our 4 year old granddaughter loved the dinosaur display so we went several times during our stay. They also have science type classes that are fun.
was ok needs more stuff my lillte girl is two and they charged here to enter. needes more things for kids to do . the time you pay for parking and find patking , it seems they gould work with you al little more
Loved all the hands on activities and live demonstration. I saw a lot of adults enjoying themselves. All the exhibits were in working order. Good luck if you find free parking. Street parking is only an hour at a time. A school was there when we went so it was packed. The loudness and waiting behind kids were the biggest...
Very fun time for the kids. I think even the adults learned something. They always changed up the projects on display so it is always something interesting to see.
Bottom line, if you have kids and are in the Little Rock area, stop here for at least a couple hours.
We have a 5 and two 3 year olds and they all had a blast. The exhibits are just the right mix of educational and fun and just about all of it is hands on. My son loved laying...

Date:Wednesday May 9 2007
Time: 10:00AM
At least 3 of Dundee United`s 1st team squad are definitely leaving in the summer, as manager Craig Levein attempts to re-build ahead of next season.
It`s common knowledge that defender David McCracken is on his way out, with Levein refusing to re-consider the players Tannadice future after several impressive performances in recent months.
However, it`s recently been confirmed that Lee Mair has agreed terms with Aberdeen and has signed a pre-contractual agreement that will see him head to Pittodrie at the end of the current campaign.
'All the paperwork is done and he will be at Pittodrie for pre-season training and the club's summer trip to Egypt,' said Mair`s agent Charlie Duddy.
Meanwhile, goalkeeper Derek Stillie is also planning on leaving Tannadice to pursue his legal career.
Stillie plans to quit full-time football, so that he can move to London to resume his legal studies.
The 33-year old is currently Dundee United`s 1st choice keeper and Craig Levein will have to act fast to find a replacement - otherwise United will have to rely upon inexperienced 21-year-old Ewan McLean next season.

Dashcam tapes show horror and chaos of Fla. cop's murder
The footage can only be viewed at the clerk of the circuit court's office
Tampa Tribune
TAMPA, Fla. — You could hear in their voices that this was no ordinary call: A fellow police officer had been shot.
The police cruisers screamed through the Tampa night, hitting speeds as high as 87 mph as they weaved in and out of traffic. Their worst fears were confirmed when they reached Nebraska Avenue and East Arctic Street on Aug. 19: Cpl. Mike Roberts was on the ground, bleeding, his assailant nowhere to be found.

*Ja Rule got a brief taste of freedom last week before returning to jail another case.
The 36-year-old rapper left a state prison in central New York last week after serving most of his two-year sentence for illegal gun possession. He then went straight into federal custody for his tax evasion case.
The Federal Bureau of Prisons says he has since moved from an upstate jail to Brooklyn's Metropolitan Detention Center, which houses prisoners awaiting court dates or having short terms left on their sentences.
The bureau said Thursday his expected release date is July 28.
Ja Rule admits he failed to pay taxes on more than $3 million earned between 2004 and 2006 while he lived in New Jersey.

August 3, 2014 - I Love the kitty and all its Beautiful colors..I get lots of nice comments but the cord is a little cheap for the money I spent..but other than that its very very cute
October 6, 2013 - The cat itself is beautiful, colorful and very unique. However, the cord is flimsy. I will be cutting off the cord and putting the cat pendent on a different chain.
March 21, 2013 - i like the pendent, but the cord is cheap plastic and not easy to adjust. not worth the $

There's nothing like a rendition of "Elvira" to pick up the spirits of a sick friend. Recently, Joe Bonsall of the Oak Ridge Boys received an email from former First Lady Barbara Bush to do just that for former President George H.W. Bush.
"It was very encouraging to hear him sounding so happy, because we've all been worried about him," Bonsall said. "We love him, we've known him since 1982. George and Barbara are good friends of ours."
After Bush was moved out of intensive care later that day, Bonsall said some media outlets were reporting that it was because of the Oak Ridge Boys' music.
A statement from Bush's office said "Words cannot properly express how much The Oaks' special performance meant to the President and the Bush family…This friendship goes back many years, and what happened yesterday gave the President a real shot in the arm as he, thankfully, continues to improve."
This year, the Oak Ridge Boys will celebrate 40 years in show business.
See the "performance" here:

How much of a leap is it to suppose that telling people who's winning the week before the election makes the well-known bandwagon effect influence those who struggle with their polling decisions?
While numerous studies have documented the existence of the bandwagon effect in the political domain, very few have attempted to understand the underlying mechanisms of why people conform to prevailing popular opinion.
There is some variation in the results of national polls that have been released in the past week or two but all of them show the margin between Romney and Obama to be within two or three points one way or the other. All of them with one exception, that is -- the Gallup tracking poll.
Further "education" on climate science alone is unlikely to make inroads with people who have already decided that climate change is not real or not human-induced.
As far as I can tell, the September-October shift is the largest recorded by the Pew trend line. But is it a real surge?
Conservatives tend to believe that the 2010 midterms showed that the majority of the country had "figured out" who Obama really was and had rejected him. That is simply a false presumption.
My Facebook feed, email inbox, and the chatter I hear in conservative meetings are all telling me the same thing: the polls -- all of them -- are wron...
Set against this context, it is not unreasonable to ask if the polls could be wrong. But based on the evidence, it would be unreasonable to conclude that the polls are giving us a qualitatively incorrect impression of how the election is shaping up.
By almost a 3-to-1 margin (56 to 20 percent), American voters are deeply concerned that the lives of American children have become worse over the last decade.
Just like the Apollo-Rocky II Superfight, the president's team has slogged it out and not just clawed back into the fight, but now has Romney on the ropes. But Romney is still standing, and there's a bunch of time left before the final bell.
Mitt Romney's gaffes keep pumping air under Barack Obama's convention bounce, and Republicans say that the same polls that liberals complained about in 2004 are, you guessed it, "skewed."
Conservative blogger Dean Chambers has started a new polling website that he claims takes the slant out of liberal mainstream media polls. The result? Now Romney is leading Obama by 7.8 points.
Of course, we are heading into debate season, so things could always change, but at the moment it is looking decidedly good for an Obama win. Here's how the election would break down if held today.
It's a provocative headline from Politico: "Veterans Retreating from President Obama." Provocative, but not exactly true.
Obama is ahead in every single battleground state -- whether by a hair or outside the margin of error. This isn't to suggest that every state will go his way, but this does say something about the state of the race.
Though scores of Republicans are looking at poll numbers and moving to the sidelines or outright jumping ship, at least two imaginative Romney cheerleader/pundits -- Hugh Hewitt and Dick Morris -- maintain a different view. They say Romney already is ahead.

Rowan Pelling's sex advice column: How do I tackle sexting teens?
- Don't forget - we all have foolish stories to tell about our youth
- But if word gets out about the sexts, it could be emotionally scarring
- If you are close, talk to the mother - and you may want to tell a teacher
QUESTION: My 16-year-old daughter told me that her best friend has been sending her boyfriend naked photos of herself using her phone. He's then shown these to other boys.
I've thought of telling the girl's parents, but they're very strict and might overreact. Also, my daughter swore me to secrecy. What to do?
Omg: If word gets out about the sexting, it could be emotionally damaging - encourage your daughter to give her friend a stern lecture
ANSWER: You are right to tread cautiously. If there's any creature harder to deal with than a hormonal teenage girl, I've yet to meet it. Parental advice acts as a red rag to a bull; they trample all over it in their raging desire to pursue the opposite course.
Then there's the complex code of schoolgirl loyalty to frustrate you. Your daughter has told you her pal's secret in confidence, so if you blunder in you risk alienating your child and her friend, and will very likely jeopardise their friendship. Wisdom, tact and guile are needed in this case.

If you were close to the parents of your daughter's friend and believed they would take a proportionate response, then it might be worth taking the risk of telling them. These things are often best sorted out quietly and efficiently between mothers.
However, the mums have to know and trust one another well enough to know that sources will not be revealed and a vulnerable teen will not be shamed or punished excessively.
Clearly this girl is acting in an unwise and self-destructive manner - but pause for a minute to remember your own youthful mistakes. Our generation may not have had mobile phones to record our wayward moments, but we still behaved foolishly.
I attended a school with a strong religious ethos, but that didn't stop some classmates having sex at 15, stripping down to undies at teen parties and midnight skinny-dipping with boys. My grandmother, who was a teenager in the Twenties, had similar stories of mayhem to recall.
That's not to say you shouldn't intervene. Instead, bear in mind the parental job here is to steer teens through danger zones without turning each mistake into a wrecking ball.
A girl who is told by adults that her boyfriend has shown naked pictures of her to his mates could become mentally scarred, perhaps with tragic consequences, as the sense that 'everyone knows' can prove overwhelming.
You want to protect this girl, so the best course is to alert her to the pitfalls of her behaviour without turning the situation into a crisis.
I would urge your daughter to give her friend a stern lecture. Teenage girls are great moralisers and peer-to-peer homilies tend to go down better than adult reprimands. If the girl visits, you could steer the conversation towards sexting. Remind them it's impossible to stop images being shared once they're out.
You should also try and track down a teacher at the girls' school who is sensible and trustworthy and can, if needs be, intervene because she's 'heard a rumour'. Teachers need to know about sexting among their pupils, as it can cause bullying in the classroom.
With guidance, your daughter's friend should desist from sending risque photos and will one day - aged 45 or so - roll her eyes at the foolishness of youth.
