"The question we settle in an election is not whether elites shall rule, but which elite shall rule," said conservative pundit George Will on ABC's This Week.
That's why we need daily television news that reports with ordinary people’s interests in mind. The Real News is such a network; it’s the missing link in the global media landscape.
The Real News Network (TRNN) is a non-profit, viewer-supported daily video-news and documentary service. We don’t accept advertising, and we don’t accept government or corporate funding. TRNN is sustained by viewer donations and earned revenue.
Since 2007, we have produced more than 7,000 stories that have been viewed more than 100 million times. The next phase of development is the move to television. We will compete with cable news for an audience in the millions.

What's News and Who's a Newsmaker?

Our perspective on reporting the news is guided by an editorial approach that seeks facts and doesn’t bow to pressure. In everything we produce, we ask:
What’s news? We cover the big stories of the day, but we broaden the definition of what’s important: the movements for working peoples’ rights, for peace, for the health of our planet, and against racism – are news.
Who’s a newsmaker? We don’t just cover people in high office or limit news to the partisan horse race for power. We think that people who fight for human rights and work for solutions are newsmakers.
What matters to a mass audience? We combine sizzle with substance, understanding that craft and entertainment values are critical to winning a large audience. We strive to answer the questions: “Why is this happening to me?” and “What can I do about it?”. TRNN programming provides facts and context to help people advance their interests.
What is the real debate? Our debate is fact-based and witty, resisting talking points and narrow partisanship. We question underlying assumptions and search for solutions.
Are we objective in method and transparent in presentation? We all have interests. This affects the facts we consider important and the sources we decide to trust. TRNN strives to delve into the complexity of issues and base our journalism on verifiable evidence. We work at being transparent and providing ways for viewers to question, debate, and criticize our work.

 Why is My Child Stealing and What Can I Do? Advice for Parents on Kids, Stealing and Shoplifting

By: Dr Marlene Maheu

"My fourteen year old daughter was arrested for shoplifting make-up this week," said Marie, a working mother of two girls. "Is this just normal teen behavior, or is it something more serious? She’s grounded for a month and I’ve taken away her iPod and computer privileges, but to tell the truth, I’m still in shock. I’m furious and I don’t even know how to talk to her about what she did."

Is Shoplifting the Same as Stealing?

Many parents have asked me over the years, "Is shoplifting a candy bar or cosmetics or clothes the same as stealing?" The truth is, stealing is stealing. It’s criminal, antisocial and worst of all, it corrodes a child’s development, character and integrity through the use of justifications and excuses. However, shoplifting candy bars from a store and stealing with aggression are two very different acts.

Stealing is wrong, and the best way to understand it is to examine your child’s thinking. Kids who steal often feel entitled to what they’re stealing, even though they or their parents can’t afford it.

There is a fierce sense of competitiveness amongst teens and pre-teens these days regarding having the cool stuff, wearing the hip clothes, and sporting hot make-up or accessories. Many kids will resort to stealing as a response to this phenomenon. Sometimes kids even steal for the sense of excitement it gives them, or do it under peer pressure.

A big part of the problem is that our society’s message is completely absent of a strongly objective morality. In most movies and songs today, the bad guys do good things and the good guys do bad things, and everybody looks the same. So kids justify what they’re doing. It’s not surprising when kids develop these ambivalent feelings about integrity, character and the difference between right and wrong.

The "Five Finger Discount"—What’s Behind a Child’s Thinking When He Shoplifts?

A child’s thinking behind this type of behavior is that "No one will get hurt and the store has a lot of money." They rationalize that they need to have this stuff in order to be accepted. They might say, "My parents won’t allow me to buy clothing or makeup like this, so I have to steal it."

But remember this: It’s our job as parents, teachers and therapists to strongly defend the concept that stealing is wrong. Tell your children this: "Stealing is wrong for two reasons: It’s illegal and puts you at risk of being arrested and prosecuted. It’s also hurtful because when you take something that doesn’t belong to you, somewhere, someone down the line is being hurt."


Make it real to your child by explaining that if they shoplift cosmetics or video games, the company adjusts its price upwards to insulate itself, and all the rest of us pay a little more for it because of it.

If your child is caught stealing, in all cases, there needs to be meaningful consequences for the behavior. To you as a parent, the most important aspect of your child's decision to steal is the way of thinking that preceded the stealing. She should pay whatever the consequences are for stealing, and also write an essay on how she justified it.

Ask her, "What were you thinking before you stole this?" Remember this: It is in the examination of the justifications and excuses where the true learning will take place.

Certainly consequences like making her take the stolen item back to the store, apologizing and making financial amends are all very good parts of the equation. That kind of accountability can be very productive in deterring future stealing, if accompanied by an examination of the faulty thinking which drove them to do it.

You also might give them the consequence of, "You can’t go to the mall for two weeks. Two weeks of no stealing." If parents ask me, "How do I know?" I say "Don’t worry about it. They need to get another chance. You’re not there to be a cop." Always give them the chance to earn your trust back.

Stealing with Aggression: A Whole Different Mindset

"Aggression" means a "threat of harm or violence or the use of harm or violence." Some kids have gotten to a level of stealing where they are willing to physically assault someone else to take what they want. When dealing with stealing with aggression, the focus has to be on very strong consequences to deter future behavior, as well as a very focused examination of the thoughts, not the feelings, the thoughts which underlie this type of behavior.

When people steal with aggression, they're clearly saying, "I want that bad enough that I’ll hurt you if you don’t give it to me," which is very different than a shoplifter who says, "This won’t hurt the company, they have a lot of money." It’s a very different mindset and has to be addressed with vigor.

Let me be clear: Stealing with aggression is hardcore antisocial behavior. When you deal with individuals who exhibit criminal behavior, you’ll often find that one-on-one, they can be very charming, pleasant, and intelligent. Many criminals have advanced social manipulative skills. The difference between a criminal and a non-criminal is that the criminal is willing to use violence and aggression to get what he wants, while the non-criminal has very strong boundaries in those areas.

So when children are willing to use violence and aggression to get their way, it can be a key indicator that they are quite far down the wrong path. Of course there are always isolated incidents where kids will threaten other kids to get their way. Adolescent bravado can sometimes lead to threats. The astute adult has to ferret out which is which. But make no mistake, if your child is using threats of violence and aggression to steal, he has to be dealt with very sternly.

Again, it is very difficult to counteract the media forces in our society which constantly advocate aggression and violence as legitimate means to solve problems. Our media promotes the idea that if you want or need something bad enough and you have a good excuse-making system in place, you can justify anything. And you can use aggression and violence to achieve your end.

So here’s the message kids are getting: "If you can justify it, then it’s OK to do it." And we all know that kids can justify anything. So society has to react very strongly to aggression and threats involving stealing or anything else. I mean, look around you. Look at all the violence and aggression, senseless killing. Now think about this: in the minds of the kids who are committing that violence they believe it’s the OK thing to do.

If you look beneath the violence, to the thinking patterns, it’s very scary. That’s why you see situations like Columbine and Virginia Tech, where kids commit horrible violence on other kids and justify it because they perceive themselves as victims. Stealing is wrong and hurtful. But stealing with aggression and violence is much more problematic and needs to be dealt with aggressively.

If Your Child is Stealing within the Family, Everyone is Paying the Price

It’s common to hear that kids steal from their family members. Younger kids after all don’t have the level of moral development that leads to them understanding that this type of stealing is wrong and hurtful. This has to be taught with patience and firmness.

Stealing within the family should have the same consequences as stealing from a store, whether it’s from a sibling or a parent. Labeling, yelling and name-calling does not change the behavior. Discussions about the rights of others and respect for other’s property, followed by a consequence the child must carry out, are the preferred ways of dealing with theft in the family.

For young children, a consequence might be that they go to their room with the door open for 15 minutes, at the end of which time you come in and talk with them about stealing. Focus on the child realizing he was wrong, instead of just saying he is sorry. As kids get older, other consequences come into play, like paying rent for the stolen property, paying back the stolen money, and loss of social privileges.

Tell them you’re taking away their privileges because you’re not sure they can be trusted outside of the house. Don’t forget that if someone is unsafe or untrustworthy in the house, there should be real concern about what kind of trouble they might get into outside of the house where there is even less structure.

Volume and frequency of the stealing are also important to address. If a pre-adolescent or adolescent steals a large amount of money, which is measured compared to what the family has, the police should be called and you should be starting the legal process. This is designed to hold that child legally responsible, not only family-responsible.

The assumption here is that you've tried all you can within the family and it’s not working, and that now the police have to get involved. Stealing is a crime. These acts should be looked at as criminal acts more than as mental health problems. While mental health issues may be involved, adults who have mental health problems are punished for stealing just like adults without mental health problems.

Prisons and correctional institutions are full of people with mental health problems who also stole. They're not in jail for mental health problems, they’re in jail for stealing.

If there’s a high frequency of theft, or stealing for no apparent reason or the hoarding of food, that can indicate deeper psychological forces at play. These kids need to be assessed to see if there’s a therapeutic response to their behavior. But make no bones about it, they also need to be held accountable in the home as well as outside of the home for their antisocial behavior.

Although stealing may be a symptom of a larger problem, it is still stealing. The lesson about not stealing has to be reinforced and the child has to be held accountable. We can’t make excuses about antisocial and harmful behavior even when it occurs in the home.

Remember, you’re trying to produce a person who can function safely and productively in adult society. Excusing stealing will not produce that person. Sometimes parents minimize this behavior and it comes back to hurt them later on.

When Your Trust is Betrayed: How to let Your Child Earn it Back

The sense of betrayal that parents feel after their child has stolen from them is very real and should be addressed openly. If it’s a younger child, certainly the emotion should be screened out of it, and your child should be taught about trust. The way you’d explain trust to a younger child is by saying, "Stealing is hurtful and if somebody trusts you, it’s important not to hurt them."

Explain that trust is really a word we use for depending upon other people to do certain things or to not do certain things. The stronger that our belief is that they won’t hurt us, the deeper the sense of violation is. As kids get older and become teens, I think that their loyalties and allegiances are torn between the values of their peer group and the values of their family. Very often there’s a contradiction between the two.

This contradiction needs to be tolerated by parents to a certain degree because the teenager’s developmental role is to become an individual. And one of the ways that teens do that is by pushing their parents away and by rebelling against family norms and values. A certain amount of rebelliousness should be tolerated.

Nonetheless, a teenager stealing from parents is not an act of rebelliousness. It’s a violation of trust and it’s the commission of a petty crime in an arena where the teen doesn’t feel there will be severe consequences.

If there are several acts of stealing, they should be dealt with sternly in the family, using the behavioral concepts that I mentioned earlier. If there is major stealing of money and other valuables, the parents should consider involving the police and pressing charges. Although this seems harsh, the principles behind it are easy to understand.

If a teen is stealing from you because he perceives you as being weak and if family consequences aren’t helping with that, the family needs to seek outside help in order to strengthen itself. Secondly, and this is very important, if kids get away with stealing valuables from home, they’re going to develop a value system which allows for stealing any time the person can justify it.

When I have gone to youth detention centers to talk to the teens I was working with about the crimes that got them there, they invariably had a justification for it. That type of justification, or what we call an "alibi system," is developed and reinforced at home. In short, teens develop a way of thinking to justify their teenage behavior. They develop an alibi for everything.

Once that alibi system becomes criminalized, you’ll see an increase in the amount of antisocial behavior such as stealing, drug use, and sometimes aggression. Parents who insulate kids from the consequences of their behavior are only extending, supporting and reinforcing the bad judgments that lead to those behaviors.

The way trust is won back: for younger kids, they should be told what to do in order for the family to feel like they trust them again. "Don’t take your brother’s things so I can trust you to be upstairs alone. If you steal something from your older brother, you can’t go upstairs unsupervised."

Make the child uncomfortable. Consequences make them uncomfortable. You can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make them drink—but you can make them thirsty. Consequences are designed to make the child thirsty.

In addition, positive statements about trust should be made frequently with younger kids. "When you handle it that way, I know I can trust you." Model the values you want your younger kids to have and identify them. Make statements like, "It’s good when you tell me the truth.

I know I can trust you downstairs with the TV. I know I can trust you to go into my bedroom." The more we say statements like that, that you see what your child is doing, or you hear what they’re saying, the more real it makes them feel.

With older kids who steal, it’s important to say, "You’ve lost my trust, and therefore you can’t go upstairs alone. I don’t think I’m going to be able to trust you around money again. So I’m going to close my bedroom door and you can’t go in anymore." There are parents who put locks on their doors, and I think kids should pay for those locks. But always give them a means to earn that trust back, either in that conversation or a subsequent one.

Is Your Child Stealing Chronically?

If a kid steals chronically, earning a parent’s trust back is the least of his problems. Because he’s already developing an alibi system that says it’s OK to hurt the people you love. There are plenty of parents who don’t trust their kids around their money and valuables.

In today’s society, parents are second class citizens and there’s almost a societal expectation that their kids will abuse them and that they should take it, and that’s just crazy. That expectation is expressed in justifications like, "All kids steal, all kids lie, kids sometimes lose their temper." But certainly all kids don’t lie or steal to the same degree, nor do all kids verbally abuse their parents and break things in the home. And when they do, they need to be held strictly accountable.

Right and Wrong: There is a Difference

I truly empathize with what parents are up against these days. The concept of right and wrong has taken a real beating in our recent history. It’s been replaced by the concepts of "consumerism" and "possessiveness."

Therefore, when you tell kids it is wrong to steal, they have limited formal moral and ethical training to use as a reference point, and whatever moral and ethical training they have is easily drowned out by the media, which screams at them constantly. And there’s too much excuse-making for kids’ behavior.

Adults say "It’s only a stage he’s going through." Or he has ADD. Or his father is an alcoholic. And they keep making those excuses until the kid is in serious trouble. Things like developmental stages or mental health diagnoses or family influences have to be dealt with as separate issues from the stealing or aggression.

Do these issues need to be addressed? Of course they do. Are they significant? Absolutely. Should they be allowed to justify stealing or aggression? Never. No matter what parents you have, no matter what mental health diagnosis, no matter what stage you’re in, it’s wrong to steal because it hurts others.

That has to be black and white to everybody.

Volunteering Services Boost Depressed Societies

By: John Milly

Before we begin our blessed journey throwing some light on the various facets of volunteering services, let’s get the hang of the definition of volunteering and how it vigorously contributes to the intensification of neglected communities.

What exactly volunteering is? How does it play a vital role when it comes to strengthening a deprived society?

The retorts to the above stated questions would lie in the minds of those zealous individuals that have been strongly serving a noble cause for over a period of time. They are truly aware of the fact that since ancient times, there have been several homeless communities that are totally neglected due to the fact that there had not been passionate individuals that could have imparted their time and knowledge then into the poor groups of people. When we say that all are equal in the eyes of God and that the Almighty has created a universe under which we reside so, it becomes our prerogative to help those who have never seen a bright sunshine in terms of housing, shelter, education, nourishment and the list goes on. We should earnestly comprehend the fact that we have one life that has been bestowed on us by the Lord and we should present our lives in such a manner that it paves the right track for disadvantaged societies.

In uncomplicated words, "volunteering" is opting for the services that comprise sharing of time and knowledge with people belonging to under-privileged community. We all should take some time out and pay a visit to the organizations that deal with such blessed services. Such organizations have taken over the entire planet by storm and they provide a priceless opportunity to the individuals that have taken an oath to serve the poor and needy and will always bequeath their services for their evolution.

There is a plethora of benefits that can be massively reaped by the individuals. The first and biggest perhaps people derive from volunteering services is the satisfaction of integrating services into their lives and thus, building a difference in their community and country. When you render your time, understanding and knowledge to disadvantaged people, not only it proves to be a satisfying experience for you but you get loaded with the substantial benefits such as the following:

• Pride

• Satisfaction

• Accomplishment

When we formulate a strategy to get in touch with an organization that deals with diverse volunteering services, we solve different problems that have been faced by the poor communities. We improve their lives in various aspects and mingle with them so that they can lead their lives in a deserved manner.

Go Voluntouring is an organization that provides diverse opportunities to individuals that are willing to undertake Volunteering services in another country and contribute their skills and knowledge to less-privileged people. They gladly accept Volunteering services for the development of deprived communities.

Do you hunker down with a bowl of popcorn to watch Forensic Files? Do you TiVo every episode of CSI, including the numerous spin-offs? Then, you might want to consider a career in criminal justice by enrolling in an online criminal justice program.

While it used to be that those in the criminal justice system did not go to college, the rapidly evolving science and technology of crime solving, as well as the need to develop verbal skills, writing skills, management techniques and strategic planning ability have led more criminal justice organizations to seek people with degrees. Now, as the field of criminal justice heats up with more people interested in Homeland Security positions and forensic science, a college degree is a requirement.

There are many fascinating aspects within the umbrella of criminal justice. Online schools for criminal justice have sprung up, educating professionals to enforce the law, investigate crimes, collect evidence, protect others from criminal and terrorist activities, and develop criminal rehabilitation plans and security programs.

Jobs in the criminal justice field include corrections officers, police officers, probation officers, customs agents, CIA agents, DEA agents, FBI agents, Secret Service agents, crime scene investigators and forensics experts. In a world where new types of crimes are created as technology advances and globalization increases, there will be a greater need for people to solve and prevent these crimes.

Online schools for criminal justice recognize the growing need to provide comprehensive e-learning modules for online criminal justice degrees. That is why there are many specializations created for online criminal justice degree programs that may not yet be available in traditional settings. For example, some relevant online criminal justice degrees include a B.S. degree in juvenile justice, global issues in criminal justice law, computer security and forensics, homeland security and emergency management, homeland security technology, cyber crime, and crime scene investigation.

Besides the textbook theory of criminal justice, online criminal justice degree programs are in touch with what today’s employers seek: effective interpersonal and communication skills, strong problem-solving capabilities, and mental and emotional training to combat the many stressful situations that a criminal justice job may bring.

To get started on a criminal justice online degree, do your investigative report on whether the criminal justice degree program is accredited, what courses are offered, costs, what types of financial aid is available and how will that online university help facilitate your criminal justice job search. Remember, an online criminal justice degree will take discipline and commitment to achieve a successful end. Case closed, an online criminal justice degree is what you need to be the star of your own criminal justice program!

 How To Have The Right Outlook For Self Defense

By: Marty Bresse

One of the most crucial things you can do is learn to be aware of who is around you. When walking, observe your surroundings all of the time so that you're not caught unawares by anyone that might do you harm. You're going to be put through intensive workout routines to be sure you are flexible, have improved endurance, are able to remain alert, and are able to react quickly to any threat that might come your way. As you probably know, self-defense is something that everyone should learn. You never know when you are going to be confronted by a violent assailant or someone dangerous where you live. We can not always count on the authorities or other law enforcement agencies to safeguard us.

Many people take self-defense classes for many different reasons. Nevertheless, the ones we've mentioned are the most common reasons. Self-defense is the act of safeguarding your life, somebody else's life, and even your property or home from a perceived threat. This is not to say that it is just strangers that you should be wary of as attacks are frequently carried out by folks you know. Rather than be mauled and probably killed, get away once you see a chance.

It is very important to understand what method to employ based on your current position in any given situation so you can effectively attack first. If you choose to sign up for a martial arts class for the purpose of learning self defense, it is best to find a class that focuses on actual situations and not formal and traditional training. This is where understanding of distance and angles is going to help and if you are up close to a person a strike with the fist or palm of the hand could be the best option. Self-defense in some classes is mixed with some workout routines in the gym or just general endurance exercises like push ups and sit ups that help strengthen different groups of muscles in the body.

You're going to be subjected to rigorous workout routines to be sure you are flexible, have better stamina levels, are able to remain alert, and are able to react fast to any threat that might come your way. You're going to be put through intense workout routines to be sure you are flexible, have better endurance, are able to remain alert, and are able to react quickly to any danger that may come your way. If you love competitive sports, you could visit places and participate in competitive events. This sort of training is sure to make you physically fit.

When you register for a self-defense class, you will learn how to respond quickly if you are ever in a dangerous situation. Compared to somebody who has no training, you as a self-defense student can predict your opponent's moves before he makes them, and this lets you subdue your enemy in the shortest time possible and all this is done without making use of excessive force and much energy. If it looks like that the confrontation will result in violence, then you need to strike first with all your strength and power. This needs to be your top priority in registering for any class and finding an instructor who is giving lessons that are solely for self defense and specifically for women is best.

You can actually look ahead to becoming fit when you sign up for self-defense classes. You will always be in a better position to protect yourself from an assailant if you have self-defense lessons under your belt. If you really want to have the confidence to defend yourself on the street, then joining self defense and martial arts classes will certainly help you. In this article we are going to have a look at some pointers to keep you safe on the streets. In addition, the fact that as a woman you will typically need to fight off someone who is physically stronger than you means that self defense tactics need to take into account the type of attacks you may be a victim of. This class will be taken for the main purpose of protecting yourself. You must learn these tactics right away in case a real-life situation does arise. If you focus your strategy on attacking the vulnerable body parts like the eyes and nose, you will be effective.

Reporting a Runaway

By: Remi Kalacyan

Every year, thousands of runaway children take to the streets in Canadian cities. And while 90% of them return home with the first two months, many never make it back. There are many things you need to know about how to find a missing person. The steps you take for reporting a runaway child may ensure that he/she makes it back home sooner than later.

• Call the police – IMMEDIATELY. Demand that a report be taken. Make sure to give as much information to the responding officer as possible, including the child’s full name, date of birth, approximate weight and height, and distinguishing characteristics: glasses, freckles, birthmarks, hair and eye color, and the clothing the child was last seen in. Their trained investigators know best how to find a missing person, so any details you can provide will make their jobs easier, and help them to be more efficient.
• Call surrounding police stations in surrounding areas. Give them the same information you gave your local force, as well as the responding officer’s identification number and name, and your original report number.
• Check with your child’s friends and their parents. Runaway children may seek shelter at a friend or loved one’s home first, and may have given an indication as to where they are going. Ask if any of your child’s friends are also missing.
• Call your extended family to see if your child has taken up residence with one of them.
• Call your child’s school. After reporting a runaway to the local police, reporting him/her to the school is critical so that the faculty and staff can be on the lookout. Go through your child’s desk and locker.
• Contact local border controls. Runaway laws do not extend to different countries, so if your child tried to cross the border he/she will be detained.
• Check your home computer, your child’s computer (if he/she has one) and telephone records for unfamiliar calls and/or emails.
• Use social network sites. Reporting a runaway online may help increase the amount of people searching for your child. Make sure to post recent pictures.
• Contact homeless shelters. Many runaway children take refuge in these shelters. Posting flyers and pictures will make your child more recognizable to both the staff and the patrons of the shelters.
• Cooperate with the police and the media to help engage the community in the search.
• Contact hospitals and clinics in your area.
• Post flyers at malls, restaurants and popular hangouts.
• Hire a private investigator that specializes in domestic services, such as child custody problems and finding runaway children. They are well versed in runaway laws, and can help expand your search outside of local jurisdiction.

Don’t Wait

Whatever you do, don’t wait. When it comes to reporting a runaway, time is of the essence. Police and private investigators know how to find a missing person, but the clock will work against them. The more quickly you speak to the professionals, the more quickly they can begin to search for your child. There is NO 24 hour rule when it comes to runaway children, so it’s important that you alert the authorities as soon as it becomes clear to you that your child is missing.

Mom Calls Police on 3-Year-Old Not Wearing Seatbelt and What to Know about Child Safety Car Seats

Michelle Fortin called the police on her toddler, Camille, to teach her a safety lesson after she had unbuckled while her mom was driving.

 What to Know about Child Safety Car Seats

By: Mark Dacanay

Child car seat injuries occur because of the lack of knowledge by a lot of parents about what type of seats and restraints should be applied to their children while riding a car.

It is important to remember that seatbelts are designed to protect the average sized adults and not small children.

That is why in the event of a car accident, children are thrown off the vehicle and sustains major injuries even though they were wearing seatbelts.

All 50 states, including California, have their own child safety laws that require the use of child safety seats and booster seats for infants and children.

However, you should not just buy the next child or booster seat you see. You should think it over before deciding which safety seat is right for your child.

An appropriate child safety seat should depend on your child’s age, weight and height.

Here are some guidelines that you can follow about the kind of car safety protection your child needs.

• A federally approved infant safety seat should be used for children aged 1 year and below. The infant seat should be facing the rear of the car to protect the infant’s fragile neck in the event of a car crash. The infant safety seat should also be semi- reclined to so the baby’s head does not flop forward.

• Children aged between 1 to 4 years old can be placed in a child convertible seat that faces forward. However, the car should also be equipped with safety harness straps so that the child is securely held in place.

• When your child outgrows the convertible seat, they can now be placed in a booster seat. This will allow the seatbelt to fit the child better and more comfortably.

• When the child grows too big for the booster seat, he or she can now move to a regular car seat with regular seat belts. It is recommended though, that they continue sitting on the back seat until they reach the age of 12.

Following the said guidelines should reduce the risk of major injuries to your child in case of a car accident.

However, parents should make sure that the safety seats they use are properly installed. A recent study showed that although 80% of drivers use child safety seats, about 70% of those were improperly installed.

The most common mistakes were the improper use of harness and tethers that keep the child secured in the event of an accident.

To avoid these mistakes, you can follow the following tips:

• You should carefully study the car safety seat instructions and the vehicle owner’s manual.

• Check if you are going to need a special locking clip because not all standard seatbelts would secure a car safety seat without it.

• Look for the label that says the car safety seat has met federal motor vehicle standards.

• The car seat that you installed should not move more than one inch from side or forward. It should be a tight fit.

• Check for proper installation by pushing and pulling on the car seat near the belt buckle.

• Send in the car seat registration card to get information on possible recall orders.

If your child has been injured because of a defective safety car seat, you may have a product liability claim in your hands.

POLICE MONSTER Workout - Best of Michael Counihan

Tactical Workouts Revolutionary Tactical Strength And Conditioning Program Provides A Simple Training Blueprint To Help Cops, Soldiers, And Prepared Citizens Gain Tactical Muscle

 How Fast Should You Lift? Joseph Arangio

From time to time, you must mix up your workouts to break a plateau or simply beat boredom.
You see, both mind and muscle adapts to a familiar training plan in about four weeks.
If you don’t have access to a tactical strength and conditioning coach, to customize a program for you, here’s a proven approach to reboot your own workouts: lift fast on some days and moderate-to-slow-paced on others. This rep-timing technique, called time under tension (TUT), helps you target specific goals, like boosting power, growing muscle, or building endurance, simply by tweaking your repetition tempo.
Also, you’ll quickly learn that certain exercises work best when performed at a particular speed, if for no other reason than avoiding sloppy form or, even worse, injury.
More on that in a minute.
There are four numbers that define the tempo of a movement. So if your program recommends you do a barbell chest press at a tempo of 30X0, here’s what it means.
The first number (3) recommends you take three seconds to lower the weight (“negative” or “eccentric”). The second number (0) is the length of the transition between the lowering and lifting part (no pause at the bottom, when the bar is touching your chest).
The third number (X) is the lifting portion (“positive” or “concentric”). The “X” tells you to raise the weight explosively. Finally, the fourth number (0) means no pause at the top.
Now before you make a snide comment about “having to go out and buy a metronome to do this workout,” please note that exercise generalists will never sway from the idea of “lifting the weight explosively and lowering it under control.”
While I agree with the idea of keeping it simple, focusing on tempo is a sneaky way to control your lifts, thereby avoiding achy joints that go hand-in-hand with sloppy technique. So you’d be remiss to not test this training strategy for at least a month. You’ll benefit from newfound focus and intensity during your workouts.

Don't be your Own Worst Enemy!

By: Marc Victor

I cringe to think how many times clients come into my office to discuss their criminal matter with me only to learn they have done possibly irreparable damage to their case. I have found few people who are aware of their constitutional rights.

Your awareness of some simple concepts may serve you well in the event you or a loved one is the unfortunate subject of a criminal investigation. First of all, always remember, you are not required to talk to the police. There may be occasions where your persuasive oral skills will serve to get you a stern warning instead of a costly ticket; however, talking with the police will rarely benefit you when the investigation is for a crime.

In addition, talking to friends and family about your criminal matter is usually not a good idea either. Although you do not expect a friend or family member to compromise your case, you may put him or her in an unfair position. A prosecutor may summon your family member or friend to the witness stand in a criminal trial and ask questions about your statements. Such a dilemma will force your family member or friend to decide between perjury and possibly hurting your case.

Don't get caught up by the fact that the police officer failed to inform you of your "Miranda Rights." These are your rights to remain silent and to have an attorney present during questioning. So long as you are not under "arrest" the police officer may properly ask you questions without informing you of these rights.

You are never required to consent to a search. If a police officer has a search warrant, you must permit the search. However, if a search warrant has not yet been obtained, you should insist the officer obtain one before you voluntarily allow a search. The fact that you insist upon a search warrant does not mean you have something to hide. Rather, it is a confirmation of the constitutional concept that police do not have the right to arbitrarily conduct searches of your property.

A police officer has no right to detain you unless there exists reasonable suspicion that you committed a crime or traffic violation. However, a police officer is always allowed to initiate a voluntary conversation with you.
Sometimes it is unclear whether or not a person is detained. If you are in doubt, you should ask the police officer if you are in fact free to leave.

If you are arrested, Arizona law mandates that you will be brought before a judge within twenty-four hours. This is an important hearing for you. The judge will decide what conditions, if any, must be met before you can be released from jail. You have a right to retain an attorney for this hearing to argue for your release.

Regarding the crime of driving under the influence of alcohol, the best advice is to have a designated driver. However, if you are the subject of a DUI investigation, you must be especially careful and thoughtful about what you say and do. In Arizona, a conviction for DUI guarantees a jail term.

Arizona law does not require you to submit to roadside field sobriety tests. Although these tests may assist you to convince an officer you are not intoxicated, as a general rule, refusing to take the tests is the better choice. Keep in mind, it is the police officer who subjectively decides whether you passed or failed the tests.
Deciding whether to submit to a blood, breath or urine test is a different matter altogether. If you refuse one of these tests, you will likely lose your driver's license for one year. You should consult an attorney before deciding to refuse or submit to one of these tests.

DUI is a complex area of the criminal law. However, like other criminal charges, the decisions you make during your initial contact with a police officer can be the difference between conviction and acquittal.
