'A congressional bill aimed at curbing sexual assault on America’s college and university campuses actually would make the problem worse, contends the anti-violence group Stop Abusive and Violent Environments, or SAVE.

The Campus Accountability and Safety Act sponsored by Sen. Claire McCaskill, D-Mo., includes provisions for counselors for sexual assault victims, anonymity for those who report sexual assaults and increased standards for campus security and safety officers.

Her office declined to respond to WND questions, but in a statement previously released by her press office, she said women on college campuses are in danger of sexual assault.
...
But SAVE President Everett Bartlett said one of the major consequences of the bill will be to remove some of the U.S. Constitution’s protections for the accused.

“The bill as it reads is biased in favor of the accuser and biased against the accused. It will make it difficult to protect a young man from false accusations,” Bartlett said.

'The sports network has suspended host Max Kellerman after he admitted Monday on ESPN-LA Radio show Mason & Ireland that he hit his then-girlfriend, Erin, several years ago. Max and Erin have now been married for 20 years.

"Max Kellerman will return to ESPNLA Radio and SportsNation on Thursday," ESPN said in a statement released to The Hollywood Reporter.

Max explained in the story that he and Erin were at a college party and were drunk at the time. Max said that Erin slapped him, and so he slapped her back.'

'HuffPost Live tackled the controversial subject of circumcision this week, speaking with a panelist who was not only vehemently opposed to the practice but felt that it created additional struggles for him as a gay man.

"I believe that I’m de-sensitized," Brian Levitt, who was circumcised as an infant, said. "Most intact men don’t understand how it works ... being a gay man, I have [an] intimate understanding [of male anatomy, which is] something that straight men don’t get."'

'The movement to welcome newborn Jewish boys into Jewish life without the surgery of circumcision has reached a milestone—over 200 officiants are now available to perform the peaceful welcoming ceremony. Over 120 of these are rabbis. Many of these officiants are members of the Reform, Humanistic, Renewal, and Reconstructionist Jewish movements. Not all of the officiants on the list are opposed to circumcision, but some are. Several Rabbis on the list have intact grandsons, some have intact adopted sons.

Called brit shalom (Hebrew for covenant of peace), this alternative naming ceremony corresponds with traditional brit milah welcoming ceremony, except that there is no cutting of the baby.

“They’re especially happy ceremonies, for that reason,” says Mark Reiss, M.D.'

'Kansas Department for Children and Families announced the creation of the Child Support Savings Initiative. It will encourage parents who owe child support to pay into education savings accounts for their children.

For every dollar put into an account, the state will reduce the parent's debt obligation by $2. Kansas welfare officials said they will use more than $600,000 in grants from two foundations to launch it: W.K. Kellogg Foundation and the Annie E. Casey Foundation.

Texas is the only other state, which National Parents Organization knows of, that has anything at all like this. In Texas, the Child Support for College, CS4C, is a pilot program of the Texas Office of the Attorney General and other partners aimed at linking child support customers to financial coaching institutions. The goal is to promote parent savings for their child’s future college education; but, Texas does not provide the match as is being tested in Kansas.'

'If you believe statistics mouthed by your president, and if you still define rape as it has been traditionally defined -- sexual intercourse without consent, usually using force -- our universities have become some of the most dangerous places in the world.

The argument of the White House and a multitude of others, you see, is that the male students are raping an astonishing 20 percent of the female students. In an online article, Heather Mac Donald, a fellow at the Manhattan Institute, cannot help facetiously wondering how mothers can bear to "send their daughters off to a crime scene of such magnitude, unmatched even in the most brutal African tribal wars."

'From terrorism to natural disasters, the standard reporting on casualties is often like this by Morning Edition host Steve Inskeep:

"First, we go to Gaza," recited Inskeep. "The health ministry there says more than 500 people have been killed – many of them women and children."

Why, Larry Kalikow of Warrington, Penn, wrote, were women's lives being singled out?

"Are NPR reporters specially trained to promote such flagrant sexism?" he asked. "When will NPR and its news journalists and reporters finally accept the egalitarian principle that all human lives are equally precious, and that the loss of men's lives is no less tragic than the loss of women's lives?"'

'A Georgia boy ended up with a suspension after he brought a toy to school as part of an assignment that his teacher handed out.

Ramsey McDonald's teacher asked fourth graders at Miller Elementary School to bring in their most beloved toys so that they could talk about them.

The youngster told his dad that he was going to bring in his iPad and some other toys.
...
"They told me my son brought a weapon to school and they asked me if I was aware," McDonald told WMAZ. "I asked them what it was and they said it was a plastic Nerf gun."

The boy ended up with a three-day in-school suspension for bringing the toy to class.'

'When I saw that Michelle Obama joked at the US-Africa Leaders Summit this week that “women are smarter than men”, I prepared myself for backlash. And – what do you know? – Politico wrote that the First Lady had “engaged in a battle of the sexes”, anti-feminist author and Fox News contributor Suzanne Venker called it a “sexist and elitist display”, and the headline at Business Standard read “Michelle Obama claims women are smarter than men”. As if it were a serious assertion rather than a joking aside!
...
But when the First Lady made the quip – at an event with former first lady Laura Bush, while addressing the spouses of African leaders – it wasn’t a humorless dig at men. It was a light-hearted moment of girl-power on the outskirts of a conference for heads of state that is incredibly male-dominated.

Story here. Excerpt:

'A former University of Massachusetts Amherst student who said he was expelled last fall over allegations he sexually assaulted a female student is suing the school, saying administrators unfairly and mistakenly found him responsible and discriminated against him because he is a man.
...
During a night of drinking, playing card games, and dancing with friends, the two students became friendly and flirted, and she later invited him to her room to have sex, the lawsuit said. They had consensual sex and the female student at no point showed signs of intoxication, according to the suit.

The next day, the female student could not remember what had happened, according to the lawsuit. At her roommate’s urging, the female student went to the campus health center for an evaluation. The following day, she filed a complaint with the dean of students’ office.

In her written complaint, she never called what happened harassment, assault, or rape, according to the lawsuit.

Three days later, the university told the male student he was under investigation for threatening behavior, sexual harassment, sexual misconduct, and violating community living standards, the lawsuit said.

He was immediately ordered to move off campus and was barred from the premises except to attend classes, the lawsuit said.

Two months later, the university held a disciplinary hearing, the lawsuit said. But the male student had not been given copies of case documents beforehand, key pieces of evidence were not presented during the hearing, the male student was repeatedly interrupted, and questions he had were ignored, the suit said.

'Most of us remember Brian Banks, the football player who was falsely accused of rape at 16 and spent five years in prison. And even when he was released, he had to register as a sex offender and had trouble finding work.

After his exoneration, at 26, Banks decided to release a documentary describing what his life had been like for the past ten years. And he started a Kickstarter to help raise funds for the project. He ended up earning $47,000.

After two years the film is not complete because it grew far beyond Banks’ own expectations. He shared that initially he thought it would be a small project but as more and more people learned about his story, they wanted to help him. First he was trying out for NFL teams, eventually joining the Atlanta Falcons for training camp. He would go on to play in four games during last year’s NFL season.

'Beacon Hill lawmakers are supposed to approve public-safety laws protecting the state's citizens -- not laws making it easier for suspected criminals to evade exposure.

Yet early Friday morning, in the 11th-hour rush to end the two-year legislative session, lawmakers held their noses and passed a domestic-violence law that shields the identities of accused abusers. Once Gov. Deval Patrick signs the law, the names of suspected abusers won't be made public on police arrest logs as is now the practice.

While most lawmakers said they opposed eliminating the public's right to know, they didn't want to gut a bill toughening penalties against repeat offenders.

'TMZ reports that the ex-Da Band singer was arrested on domestic violence charges following a fight with her husband Tony on July 21. The married couple was reportedly brawling outside of the house while she was allegedly drunk around 3:45am and now, she's landed a spot in jail for the next 93 days.

This isn't the first time Stokes ruffled feathers with the law. She stabbed her husband in 2009 and was sentenced to three years probation in a plea deal.'

'A Gastonia man was falsely accused of tying up and raping a woman three times, a prosecutor said Tuesday. Justin Michael Gowan spent nearly a year in jail awaiting trial on charges of rape, kidnapping, assault by strangulation and assault with a deadly weapon.
...
False accusation: Bogle commended Stockwell on researching the case and questioning the allegations. He said Gowan’s accuser had made similar claims about other men in the past.

“She has a history of creating a crisis and utilizing it as a mechanism for change,” he said.

Social workers have since taken the woman’s children, and Gowan’s child is living in Georgia with his mother, Bogle said.'
