In the United States, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Department of Children And Families (DCF) define child maltreatment as any act or series of acts of commission or omission by a parent or [2] other caregiver that results in harm, potential for harm, or threat of harm to a child. Child abuse can occur in a child's home, or in the organizations, schools or communities the child interacts with. There are four major categories of child abuse:neglect, physical abuse, psychological/emotional abuse, and child sexual abuse. Different jurisdictions have developed their own definitions of what constitutes child abuse for the purposes of removing a child from his/her family and/or prosecuting a criminal charge. According to the Journal of Child Abuse and Neglect, child abuse is "any recent act or failure to act on the part of a parent or caretaker which results in death, serious physical or emotional harm, sexual abuse or [3] exploitation, an act or failure to act which presents an imminent risk of serious harm". A person who [4] feels the need to abuse or neglect a child may be described as a "pedopath".
UNICEF Malaysia/2006/Nadchatram
Violence against children includes physical and mental abuse as well as injury, neglect, exploitation and sexual abuse. Tragically, children experience violence in all spaces most familiar to them: in homes, schools, parks and communities they live in. They also suffer abuse and exploitation in orphanages, on streets, in the workplace, in cyberspace as well as in places of detention.
2005 2008
2009 (Jan-July)
Factsheet: Child abuse in Malaysia Like in most countries, only extreme child abuse and neglect cases are reported in Malaysia, often involving tragic elements of disturbing injuries, sexual abuse or even death. International experience suggests that reported cases are likely to represent only 10 per cent of total cases perpetrated as most victims and their families remain too ashamed or unable to report the violations against them. Violence affects childrens physical and mental health, impairs their ability to learn and socialise, and undermines their development as functional adults and good parents later in life. In the most severe cases, violence against children can also lead to death. The causes of violence against children are complex. Family breakdown, stress, chronic poverty, unemployment, mental health disorders, substance abuse, homelessness, community violence and lack of quality parental time contribute to cases of abuse and neglect of children.
TypesChild abuse can take several forms: The four main types are physical, sexual, psychological, and [6] neglect. A Coordinated Response to Child Abuse and Neglect: The Foundation for Practice], Office on Child Abuse and doctor). There are many effects of child neglect, such as children not being able to [7] interact with other children around them. The continuous refusal of a child's basic needs is considered [8] chronic neglect. [edit]Physical[5]
Main article: Physical abuse Some human-service professionals claim that cultural norms that sanction physical punishment are one [9] of the causes of child abuse, and have undertaken campaigns to redefine such norms. [edit]Child
sexual abuse
Main article: Child sexual abuse Child sexual abuse (CSA) is a form of child abuse in which an adult or older adolescent abuses a child for [10][11] sexual stimulation. Forms of CSA include asking or pressuring a child to engage in sexual activities (regardless of the outcome), indecent exposure of the genitals to a child, displayingpornography to a child, actual sexual contact against a child, physical contact with the child's genitals, viewing of the child's [10][12][13] genitalia without physical contact, or using a child to produce child pornography. Selling the sexual services of children may be viewed and treated as child abuse with services offered to the child rather [14] than simple incarceration. Effects of child sexual abuse include guilt and self-blame, flashbacks, nightmares, insomnia, fear of things associated with the abuse (including objects, smells, places, doctor's visits, etc.), selfesteemissues, sexual dysfunction, chronic pain, addiction, self-injury, suicidal ideation, somatic [15] [16] [17] complaints,depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, anxiety, other mental
illnesses (including borderline personality disorder and dissociative identity disorder, propensity [19] [20] to re-victimization in adulthood, bulimia nervosa, physical injury to the child, among other [21] problems. Approximately 15% to 25% of women and 5% to 15% of men were sexually abused when [22][23][24][25][26] they were children. Most sexual abuse offenders are acquainted with their victims; approximately 30% are relatives of the child, most often brothers, fathers, mothers, uncles or cousins; around 60% are other acquaintances such as friends of the family, babysitters, or neighbours; strangers [22] are the offenders in approximately 10% of child sexual abuse cases. In over one-third of cases, the [27] perpetrator is also a minor (see child-on-child sexual abuse). [edit]Psychological/emotional Main article: Emotional abuse Out of all the possible forms of abuse, emotional abuse is the hardest to define. It could include namecalling, ridicule, degradation, destruction of personal belongings, torture or killing of a pet, excessivecriticism, inappropriate or excessive demands, withholding communication, and routine labeling [28] orhumiliation. Victims of emotional abuse may react by distancing themselves from the abuser, internalizing the abusive words, or fighting back by insulting the abuser. Emotional abuse can result in abnormal or disrupted attachment development, a tendency for victims to blame themselves (self-blame) for the [28] abuse, learned helplessness, and overly passive behavior.
Have unexplained burns, cuts, bites, bruises, broken bones or black eyes. Seems frightened and reluctant to go home. Fear of a particular person or family member.
Seems unusually withdrawn or overly aggressive. Have numerous fractures, welts or bruises in various stages of healing.Signs of sexual child abuse
Sudden refusal in participation of physical activities. Shows unusual sexual knowledge or behaviour. Have difficulty walking or sitting. Irritation of genital or anal areas. Juvenile prostitution, pregnancy or sexually transmitted infections.Signs of emotional child abuse
Apathy, depression and hostility. Shows extreme in behavior such as over demanding or extreme passivity. Have attempted suicide. Have low self-esteem. Recurrent nightmares, disturbed sleep patterns or a sudden fear of the dark.Signs of child neglect
Hunger and inadequate growth from poor nutrition. Consistently dirty, offensive body odour, unkempt. Inappropriate and lack of sufficient clothing. Failure to get needed medical care, illness left untreated. Poor school performance, tardiness or absenteeism.While it is difficult to be certain that the above signs result from abuse, they may be used to help identify possible problems in a child's life that warrants attention. Ways to prevent child abuse
Encourage open communication and honest discussion with your children. Develop strong communication skills with them and encourage them to tell you about anything that happens to them. Explain the importance of reporting abuse to you or another trusted adult. Make an effort to know your childrens friends and the people whom they are spending time with. Try to also participate in your children's activities, clubs or sports teams. You will have a better opportunity to observe how the adults in charge interact with your children. Be suspicious if your children spend unexplained time with someone outside of practices, meetings and events.
Be sensitive to any changes in your children's behavior or attitude. Pay attention if your children tell you that they do not want to be with someone or go somewhere. This may be an indication that something could be wrong. Teach your children what is and is not acceptable from others. Tell them that they have the right to say no to any unwelcome, uncomfortable or confusing touch or actions by others. Tell them to inform you immediately if this happens. Support your child. Let your child know you care. Explain your concerns and tell your child why it is important that you need to know who they are talking to and what they are doing. Reassure them that you are there to help and tell them that they will be respected and loved under any circumstance. Know your children's online activities and friends. Learn more about the websites they visit, what they use the Internet for and the people they are talking to. Tell your children never to plan a face to face meeting with people they have met through the Internet. If you suspect a case of child abuse, you may need to seek support from your health department, child support services department or other sources within your area. List for yourself whom to call for advice, information, and help. You may also look in your phone book for social services or other local agencies that deal with abused children.

How to create SQL Server 2005 Clustering with Virtual Server 2005 (Part 4)
In previous parts(Part 1, Part 2 and Part 3), we have completed windows clustering. Now, before installing SQL Cluster we have to configure MSDTC. We also need to make some shared drive which we would use to keep SQL Server databases and MSDTC. We are going to use Disk M for MSDTC and Disk X for SQL Server. We have already done the steps for Disk Q in part 2 (Create Quorum Disk section). I will reproduce the steps for Disk M and X here.
Configure Shared Disks
1. Turn off MyNode1 and MyNode2
2. Choose Virtual Disks > Create > Fixed Size Virtual Hard Disks
3. Provide Details for M Drive (250 MB) and hit "Create" button
4. Same way we would create X drive (2 GB) and Hit "Create" button.
5. Below is what you would see in Windows Explorer
6. Lets attach the disks to MyNode1 and MyNode2 (They are off at this moment) I am showing for MyNode1. Please follow same for MyNode2 also.
Click on Hard Disks
Hit OK and it would attach the disks to MyNode1. Follow the same for MyNode2
7. Turn on ONLY MyNode1.
8. Login to MyNode1 and Start > Run > DiskMgmt.msc. Cancel on the screen if you get any.
9. You should see two new Disks which are Not Initialized. Right Click and choose Initialize Disk. Then you create partition by Right Click New Partition. Below is final screen shot which you should see.
10. Now Turn Off MyNode1 and Turn On MyNode2
11. Go to DiskMgmt.msc on MyNode2 and assign drive letters (M for 250 MB drive and X for 2 GB Drive)
12. Open Cluster Administrator (Start > Run > CluAdmin)
13. Create New Group called MSDTC (File > New > Group) and provide details
14. Choose Both Nodes as preferred owner. You might get an error at last screen but that's OK because MyNode1 is offline.
15. Create a new "Disk" resource under MSDTC Group (File > New > Resource) Choose details as below screen shot.
17. Choose M Drive in "Disk Parameters" screen. and finish.
18. Now you should see a Disk resource under MSDTC Group. Right click and choose "Bring Online"
19. Follow 13 to 18 again to Create new groups called "SQL Group" and add "Disk X"
20. Up to here we have completed shared disk configuration for MyNode1 and MyNode2. Let's start MyNode1 and test fail over for new groups.
21. Before we install SQL Server, we have to configure MSDTC
Configure MSDTC as Resource
- On MyNode1 and MyNode2 follow below steps
- Open Control Panel on the cluster node
- Double-click Add/Remove Programs
- On the left side of the screen, double click Add/Remove Windows Components
- Under Components, highlight Application Server and click Details
- Select Enable network DTC access, and then click OK
- Click Next
- Click Finish
- Add "MSDTC IP Address resource" in MSDTC Group
- Right click MSDTC Group and select New > Resource
- Type a some name such as MSDTC IP Address
- In Resource Type, choose IP Address
- Click Next
- Click Next on Possible Owners screen
- Click Next on Dependencies Screen
- Give IP Address as 126.96.36.199
- Click Finish
- Right click the MSDTC IP Address resource and select Bring Online.
- Add "MSDTC Network Name" resource in MSDTC Group
- Right click MSDTC Group and select New > Resource
- Type a some name such as MSDTC NN
- In Resource Type, choose Network Name
- Click Next
- Click Next on Possible Owners screen
- On Dependencies Screen, move MSDTC IP Address and click on Add to bring on Right window. Now hit Next.
- Give Name as MSDTC
- Click Finish
- Right click the MSDTC NN resource and select Bring Online.
- Add "MSDTC" resource in MSDTC Group
- Right click MSDTC Group and select New > Resource
- Type a some name such as MSDTC
- In Resource Type, choose Distributed Transaction Coordinator
- Click Next
- Click Next on Possible Owners screen
- On Dependencies Screen, choose "MSDTC NN" and "M Drive" and click on Add to bring on Right window.
- Click Finish
- Right click the MSDTC resource and select Bring Online.
Above is the screen shot of "MSDTC group". Make sure you have matching "Resource Type" as shown in the screen.
Test fail over for MSDTC group. This finishes all Prerequisites to install SQL Server on Cluster. Get ready to install SQL Server in last part of the series.
You can follow http://support.microsoft.com/kb/899191 to make changes to MSDTC Services.
Lets move on to last part of the series

Yep, it's Reuters on the US is the 'new gulag' bandwagon
this from Reuters runs in the WaPo.
TOKYO (Reuters) - Human rights group Amnesty defended its description of Guantanamo prison as a "gulag" Thursday and urged the United States to allow independent investigations of allegations of torture at its detention centers for terrorism suspects.AI is trying to brazen out its clearly unsupportable analogy.
"The administration's response has been that our report is absurd, that our allegations have no basis, and our answer is very simple: if that is so, open up these detention centers, allow us and others to visit them," Amnesty International Secretary General Irene Zubaida Khan told a news conference.Ah! Looks like "Gulag" Khan admits that her charge is unfounded, pulled out of her ass for one reason only ... She's pissed because she hasn't been given unfettered access to any place she determines where she wants to go. Hell, why not accuse that the White House itself has secret torture rooms and then demand,
"Well if you don't have anything to hide, let me poke through the Oval Office, test the mattress in the Lincoln bedroom and fondle the White House china."
Then we get to a line in the Reuters report, no scare quotes around it, just a line presented as fact
The United States holds about 520 men at Guantanamo, where they are denied rights accorded under international law to prisoners of war.Let's make this perfectly clear ... THESE DETAINEES ARE NOT PRISONERS OF WAR.
And the fossils in the MSM still have no clue why they have lost so much credibility with citizens????
Posted by Darleen at June 2, 2005 07:11 AM
I'm not yet convinced that most of the people in Gitmo did the things that they're being held there for. They were captured under weird circumstances -- sometimes for big cash prizes, which gives the capturers incentives to nab anybody they can plausibly sell. Their trials were conducted by secret military tribunals. So I have no way of knowing whether they're terrorists or not. Given the military's propensity for making stuff up to look good (Pat Tillman is a small but hopefully uncontroversial example) I'm not giving them the benefit of the doubt.
If they are terrorists, I'm fine with holding them there. But if most of them are just unlucky goatherds, or even bottom-level Taliban soldiers who had no plans for attacking America and fought because their tribal leader would give them a sheep, we are more or less running a gulag.

Rooters has friends, too. This, from several sources:
"You people are no better than and no different than the Nazi concentration camp guards," a Red Cross representative said in April at a U.S. detention facility in Iraq, according to a Pentagon source quoted in a May 23 Wall Street Journal editorial.
I saw Dachau, empty but still there.
Posted by: Mr.Kurtz at June 3, 2005 06:11 AM
But Neil, many many detainees have been released having been found to have been captured in error. Also, war...particularly THIS war or terror is an inexact science. I feel the military is doing a terrific job, given the unenviable tasks they are performing.
Posted by: Jeremy at June 3, 2005 06:56 AM
Guantanamo is a despicable misuse of power. It's a way for the US to escape accountability. It's a possible violation of international law, and at minimum a sneaky way of getting around the law. But it's no Gulag.
That comment from the Amnesty International spokeswoman was totally inappropriate, idiotic and unnecessary. Guantanamo is NO Gulag. The scope and the purpose of Gulag is way beyond what Guantanamo is and will ever be. That comment has led the discussion down the wrong path, and has given the defenders of Guantanamo an easy way out.
"Hell, why not accuse that the White House itself has secret torture rooms and then demand,"
Come on Darleen, that's a moronic argument. We all know that nobody would live to tell about it if that was true. ;)
If I understand it correctly, the allegations about Guantanamo have been made by former detainees who were released. Do you really think that the US military under Bush would let them go if they suspected they had been guilty of anything? I doubt it. So the allegations sound at least credible enough to warrant external investigations.
Plus, before the Iraq war, the White House administration relied, among other things, on Amnesty International reports to make its case for invading Iraq (the only part of the case I found compelling!). Now all of a sudden such reports can be deemed "absurd" just because they don't fit with the administration's strategy? I found that a bit ironic.
Posted by: Mike at June 3, 2005 07:47 AM
The one huge Guantanamo-gulag disanalogy is the scale of the thing. We don't have millions of people in there. You could also cite the fact that the people there are foreigners and not our own citizens, but I don't think that makes it any better.
Certainly, a few people have been released. This is in large part because of political pressure from the outside -- several British nationals have gotten out, while those from other countries haven't been so lucky.

I doubt AI's reports on Iraq were made in an attempt to demonize the Bush Administration and were instead focused on reporting abuses in Iraq. Apparently, people were supposed to just cluck disapprovingly at the abuses and not do something about it.
