Ditch That Jerk

Ditch That Jerk

Pamela Jayne; Andrew R Klein

Hunter House Publishers
2000
sidottu
Neither weighed down by research nor weightless with airy promises, Ditch That Jerk is a gritty, honest, and most of all experienced view of physical and emotional abusers and their effect on victims. Engagingly written, it shows women how to assess their partners and relationships for potential abuse, and for potential change - or not. Author Pamela Wiseman uses examples from counseling sessions to illustrate how the mind of an abusive man works and how to identify the patterns. She details the tricks used by such men to keep women in line and discusses warning signs, alcohol and drugs, and the excuses people use to explain abuse. Optimistic and empowering without candy-coating a difficult topic, this book gives women the tools to make clear-headed decisions about damaging relationships.

Die Empfindlichkeit kleinbäuerlicher Haushalte gegenüber klimatischen Schocks

Die Empfindlichkeit kleinbäuerlicher Haushalte gegenüber klimatischen Schocks

In dieser Studie wurde versucht, den Empfindlichkeitsindex der Aktivit ten von Kleinbauernhaushalten gegen ber Klimaschocks zu bestimmen, um geeignete Programme und Strategien in Kenia zu formulieren. Die qualitativen und quantitativen Daten, die mit Hilfe von Frageb gen von 390 Haushalten erhoben wurden, wurden mit Hilfe der Sensitivit tsmetrik und des Chi-Quadrat-Tests auf Angemessenheit ausgewertet. Die Studie ergab, dass Kleinbauern, die sich ausschlie lich auf landwirtschaftliche Aktivit ten verlie en, zu 43,17 % empfindlich auf Klimaschocks reagierten, w hrend diejenigen, die sich auf nicht-landwirtschaftliche Aktivit ten verlie en, zu 36,40 % empfindlich waren. Wenn die Haushalte sowohl landwirtschaftliche als auch nicht-landwirtschaftliche T tigkeiten aus bten, verringerte sich die Empfindlichkeit aufgrund der Wechselwirkungen zwischen den beiden T tigkeiten um 21,20 %. Obwohl der Prozentsatz der Empfindlichkeit f r die Haushalte, die beide T tigkeiten aus bten, niedrig ist, war die Empfindlichkeit statistisch signifikant (P=0,000). Trotz der signifikanten Empfindlichkeit gegen ber Klimaschocks wurde die Landwirtschaft als wichtiger eingestuft (81,5 %) als andere Aktivit ten zur Sicherung des Lebensunterhalts. In der Studie wird empfohlen, dass die Regierung in Zusammenarbeit mit den Interessenvertretern Ma nahmen zur Anpassung an den Klimawandel und zur Diversifizierung der Lebensunterhaltsm glichkeiten entwickelt.

Revered interior designer David Kleinberg invites readers inside a selection of projects representing the height of sophistication, luxury, and refinement For over 35 years, David Kleinberg, whom Architectural Digest calls a designer of ‘singular rooms [that] adhere to the traditional values of elegance, beauty, practicality, [and] comfort,’ has created a body of work that is wide-ranging in style yet always modern in sensibility. Kleinberg is revered for creating spaces that not only epitomize sophistication and luxury, but that also function effortlessly for his clients. In his newest monograph, Kleinberg shares eleven recent residential projects, some of which have never been photographed until now, in glamorous locales across the United States – in Manhattan, the Hamptons, Aspen, and Palm Beach – as well as on London’s Eaton Square. The book opens with Thom Brown and Andrew Bolton’s townhouse, which was immaculately restored and filled with exquisite furnishings and art from varying periods and closes with an intimate tour of Kleinberg’s own private garden in East Hampton. Featuring a foreword by Thom Brown and Andrew Bolton, and written with Architectural Digest’s West Coast editor, Mayer Rus, the text offers readers insights into the process of the celebrated interior designer. Wrapped in grey linen and featuring a tipped-in detail shot that shows Kleinberg’s signature mix of contemporary art with period details, the book’s luxe package reflects the elegant, upscale interiors within.

Abetting Batterers

Abetting Batterers

Andrew R. Klein; Jessica L. Klein

Rowman Littlefield
2020
nidottu
Whatever the number, domestic violence victims remain far too many for a preventable crime. More and more victims of intimate partner violence are reaching out to police, prosecutors and judges only to be sorely disappointed, even betrayed. While laws and programs have multiplied over the last few decades to address domestic violence, the country is getting safer for almost everyone except for women who have, or have had, abusive male intimate partners. Andrew R. Klein and Jessica L. Klein look at the criminal justice response to domestic violence across America today, ranging from police to prosecutors and courtrooms across the nation. Abetting Batterers reveals the troubling pattern of inattention and incompetence that compromises the safety of women and encourages their male abusers to continue their abuse and violence. Although criminal justice system agencies vary among cities, towns and counties within the same state they all too often relegate domestic violence to the backburners of the system, dismissing victims and ignoring even the most serious and chronic abusers. The variation reveals the real problem in preventing intimate partner violence lies in these agencies’ commitment and will, rather than their ability to do the job. The authors unveil what is working in regard to protecting victims of domestic violence and holding their abusers accountable, and they suggest strategies for ensuring that what is being done right can be replicated and become the law and practice across the nation. The wide variation in how intimate partner violence is handled by similar jurisdictions demonstrates the real problem in preventing it lies in these agencies’ commitment, rather than ability to do the job. This book proves to be invaluable in understanding what is and is not being done in the reality of domestic violence in America.

Death before Sentencing

Death before Sentencing

Andrew R. Klein

BLOOMSBURY PUBLISHING PLC
2022
sidottu
Death before Sentencing provides a comprehensive description of America’s 3,000 plus county and local jails being ignored by the media, politicians, and even criminal justice reformers. Jails have largely escaped scrutiny for deaths in their facilities for several reasons. First, the nation’s jails are local affairs. Even repeat jail deaths warrant no more than limited local coverage at most. Jails are mostly run by sheriffs, often the most powerful and largely untouchable political figure in a local community. Third, the families of deceased jail inmates do not usually have the resources to sue or socioeconomic clout to be heard demanding jail accountability for loved ones’ deaths. And lastly, many understood jail deaths as occurring from “natural causes,” the verdict medical examiners and coroners erroneously employ to allow those responsible for the deaths to escape any accountability.This book constitutes the most complete investigation of the deadly side of jails, describing the daily deaths of detainees, including those from suicides, drug and alcohol withdrawal, forced restraint and brutality, as well as medical malpractice. Andrew R. Klein with Jessica L. Klein show how the failure of jail oversight by state correctional officials, state and county prosecutors, state police as well as sheriffs, medical examiners, and coroners allows for the secrecy surrounding and the cover up of jail deaths. Through a growing number of wrongful death lawsuits and the increasing role of the media in uncovering the truth about deadly jails, communities, led by the grieving families, are working to hold jailers and their medical providers accountable.This book concludes with hopeful signs of reforms being initiated by the U.S. Justice Department under President Biden, state legislatures, successful lawsuits, and reformers as well as suggests the major institutional reforms required to stop the daily deaths in America’s jails.
