Pastoral Care Child Protection
Pastoral Care Child Protection:
Information for Parents
An Inclusive Learning Community Striving to meet the needs of all
General Principles for Promoting Pastoral Care in Holy Trinity PS
Holy Trinity Primary School is committed to providing a safe, caring, challenging and stable environment for all our pupils.
We achieve this through a team approach involving parents, staff, therapists and other relevant professionals.
Central to all our plans, policies and procedures is the welfare of each pupil and as each one progresses through the educational and pastoral experience within our school, we seek to ensure that he/she will have the basic right to be safe from harm, with proper care given to his/her well-being by those persons who care for/work with them. Thus the young persons' welfare must always be paramount and all needs taken into consideration
Staff aims
In promoting Pastoral Care the aims of the staff in Holy Trinity Primary School are to develop our pupils'
- Self esteem
- Confidence
- Assertiveness
- Communication Skills
- Sense of responsibility
- Respect for themselves and others
- Awareness of personal safety
- Experience of success
To support these aims the school has developed detailed Pastoral Care, Discipline and Child protection policies to which all staff are committed and which are regularly reviewed and updated.
Child Protection
Our Child Protection Policy is designed to protect our pupils by ensuring among other things, that all staff are well informed about and have received training in child protection issues, are aware of their duty of care and their responsibility to report any concerns re Child Protection issues to the designated teacher Mr John Reihill or deputies Mr Brian Treacy or Mrs Majella Jones.
It should be noted that information given to members of staff about possible child abuse cannot be held "in confidence". In the interests of the child, which are always paramount, staff may need to share this information with other professionals. However, only those who need to know will be told.
Guidelines and Procedures
In all their contact with pupils, staff in Holy Trinity follow the guidelines and procedures described in the DENI publication 'Pastoral Care in Schools—Child Protection' 99/10.
We believe that:
- Children should always be taken seriously.
- In any incident the child's welfare must always be paramount.
- A proper balance must be struck between protecting children and respecting the needs of parents and families.
- The needs of children must always come first.
- Children with disabilities are children first and have equal rights to protection. However they may have particular needs that require specialist attention.
Procedure where Parents/Guardians have Concerns:
- I have a concern about my/another child's safety
- I can talk to the class teacher
- If I am still concerned, I can talk to the Designated Teacher For Child Protection– Mr Reihill or Assistant Designated Teacher Mr B Treacy and Mrs M Jones.
- If I am still concerned,I can talk to the Principal, Mr B Treacy
- I f I am still concerned,I can talk/write to The Chairperson of the Board of governors Monsignor Peter O'Reilly 02866322075
- At any time,I can talk to the Gateway Team Social Services 028711314090 or 02895049999 or the PSNI 101 Non emergency 999 emergency
This is a summary of the many aspects of Pastoral Care in Holy Trinity Primary School. Detailed copies of the Pastoral Care and any other policies mentioned are available from the school on request or on our website www.holytrinityps.com
Children, ICT & e-Safety
Children, ICT & e-Safety
Information for parents and carers:
The purpose of this guide
Children of today are increasingly using Information & Communication Technology (ICT) in schools and in the home.
This guide explains:
- How your children are using ICT in school.
- How using ICT in the home can help children to learn.
- How children can use the Internet safely at home.
- Where to access further information
We are an inclusive Learning community striving to meet the needs of all
How your child uses ICT at school:
ICT in Holy Trinity is taught as a subject in its own right and also supports children's learning in other subjects, including English and Numeracy.
Within ICT lessons children learn to use a wide range of software and electronic devices including:
- Word Processing to write stories, poems or letters;
- Databases to record information, e.g. minibeasts;
- Spreadsheets to create tables, charts and graphs;
- Desktop Publishing to design posters, leaflets or cards;
- Multimedia Presentation to present text, pictures, sound and video;
- Drawing Programs to create pictures and designs;
- Internet and CD-ROMs to find information;
- Email to contact children in another school;
- Digital Cameras to record what they have done in class or on a visit;
- Controllable Robots to give instructions and make something happen;
- Video Conferencing to share ideas or ask an expert.
Simple rules for keeping your child safe on the Internet at school and home
To keep your child safe they should:
- ask permission before using the Internet and discuss what websites they are using
- only use websites you have chosen together or a child friendly search engine
- only email people they know, (why not consider setting up an address book?)
- ask permission before opening an email sent by someone they don't know
- not use their real name when using games or websites on the Internet, (create a nick name)
- never give out any personal information about themselves, friends or family online including home address, phone or mobile number
- never arrange to meet someone they have 'met' on the Internet.
- never tell someone they don't know where they go to school or post any pictures of themselves in school uniform
- only use a webcam with people they know
- tell you immediately if they see anything they are unhappy with.
Children under 13 years of age are not permitted to use social networking sites such as Face book.
Using These Rules:
Go through these rules with your child and pin them up near to the computer. It is also a good idea to regularly check the Internet sites your child is visiting e.g. by clicking on History and Favourites. Please reassure your child that you want to keep them safe rather than take Internet access away from them.
Be SMART on line
S - Safe: Keep safe by never giving out personal information over the internet.
M - Meeting someone you have met online can be dangerous, always talk to an adult before you consider doing this.
A - Accepting emails, opening files or pictures from people you don't know can lead to problems—they may contain viruses or nasty messages.
R - Reliable: Someone on the internet might lie about who they are and information on the internet may not be reliable
T - Tell your parent, teacher or trusted adult if someone or something on the internet makes you feel uncomfortable.

How learning at home with ICT benefits children
Home use of ICT by children:
- improves their ICT skills
- offers them choice in what they learn and how they learn it
- supports homework and revision
- improves the presentation of their work
- connects learning at school with learning at home
- makes learning more fun.
All this can lead to better performance at school and an improved standard of
work. For further information go to:
Parents Centre: www.parentscentre.gov.uk/usingcomputersandtheinternet
Information for parents and carers
Using the Internet safely at home
Whilst many Internet Service Providers offer filtering systems and tools to help you safeguard your child at home, it remains surprisingly easy for children to access inappropriate material including unsuitable text, pictures and movies.
Parents are advised to set the security levels within Internet Explorer or other browsers with this in mind. Locating the computer in a family area where possible, not a bedroom, will enable you to supervise your son or daughter as they use the Internet.
Also consider mobile phones and games consoles and other devices that can access the internet. However, don't deny them the opportunity to learn from and enjoy the wide variety of material and games available on the Internet. Instead discuss with them some simple rules for keeping safe online and making sure they understand their importance.
Behaviour, Anti Bullying and Complaints policy
Information For Parents:
Behaviour Policy
Holy Trinity behaviour and discipline policy is designed for all staff to be consistent in the way we deal with the children; to create a common expectation of behavioural standards, incorporating good manners and respect. Behaviour is presented positively, concentrating on rewarding the good rather than punishing the bad. As a Catholic school we believe that the essence of good behaviour is care and consideration for others. We expect high standards of behaviour and courtesy from our children at all times.
Within school we have a THREE-tier system of operation with regards rules and consequences:
- Tier 1- Classroom / general teaching Rules and consequence procedures operated by staff during teaching time. (Class rules displayed in each class)
- Tier 2 - Lunchtime/ Breaktime Rules and consequence procedures operated by dinner supervisors.
- Tier 3 - Head/Deputy Teacher referrals: Referrals by staff following breakdown of actions in relation to levels 1 and 2
Our aims are:
- To create an understanding of personal discipline and for the children to understand why discipline is needed;
- For children to take personal responsibility for their actions;
- To create an environment where everyone is safe from hazards caused by the behaviour of people within the school;
- To create an environment where everyone is respected and cared for;
- To create an environment where property is respected and treated with care.
Consequences of breaking a rule
- Verbal warning
- Time out from classroom /activity
- Break time/lunch time detention
- Being made to undertake some low level task e.g. Litter duty
- Referral to Head Teacher / Deputy Head
- Withdrawal of privileges
- Letter home /Parental meeting
School / pupil disciplinary stages
Our Anti-bullying policy
Bullying is a highly damaging and distressing form of abuse and is not tolerated in Holy Trinity. All staff are vigilant at all times to the possibility of bullying occurring, and will take immediate steps to stop it happening, to protect and reassure the victim and to discipline the bully. Parents of both the targeted child and the child displaying bullying behaviour will be contacted immediately bullying behaviour is identified.
Any complaint by a parent that a child, is or may be, being bullied will be fully investigated by Mr. Reihill, the designated teacher for child protection, and action will be taken to protect all children. We are a TELLING school. This means that anyone who knows that bullying is happening is expected to tell the staff.
Anti Bullying Procedures:
Report bullying incidents to staff and ithe ncident recorded.The facts of the incidents will be clarified and recorded by staff/principal .
In serious cases parents will be informed and will be asked to come in to a meeting to discuss the problem. If necessary and appropriate, police will be consulted.
The bullying behaviour or threats of bullying must be acted upon and the bullying stopped quickly.
An attempt will be made to help the children change their behaviour and the situation closely monitored to ensure a repeat does not occur.
Anti Bullying Outcomes:
- Help the targeted child to identify ways in which he/she may be strengthened and supported.
- If possible, the pupils will be reconciled.
- The school will look at solution focused interventions which help all.
- After an incident / incidents have occurred, the facts outlined clearly and the incident dealt with appropriately, each case will be monitored to ensure repeated bullying does not take place.
Working in Partnership with Parents/Carers

- parents expressing a concern about their child being bullied
- the school requesting a meeting with parents/carers regarding a bullying situation.
Staff will:
- Ensure that all relevant facts are collected and clarified.

If the Republican presidential candidates at CNBC's Wednesday debate had to pick the event's biggest loser, it would probably be the news media.
In answer after answer, the candidates targeted the news media, often CNBC itself, for asking what they considered to be hostile questions and making unfair criticisms.
It climaxed with Ted Cruz taking a question about the debt ceiling and using the full length of his allotted response time to bash the three moderators of the debate. "The questions that you've asked so far in this debate illustrate why the American people don't trust the media," Cruz said to thundering applause from the audience.Read more on WashingtonExaminer.com

Lew Duddridge (1918- ) grew up during tumultuous times and imparted his life's experiences in books. Having lived through the drought-stricken 1930s of rural Saskatchewan, he stressed the powers of positive thinking in "The Best of 70 Years of My Life -- It's All Downhill from Here Canada" (1988), and elaborated on his Second World War experiences as a pilot in "Who Cares Now" (2001, Borealis). Duddridge became a businessman and community leader in later life.
An eighty-two year old man explores his life and the lives of his Royal Canadian Airforce friends of World War Two. Eleven Aircrew friends from his little hometown of Hanley Saskatchewan made the supreme sacrifice. The author wonders "Who Cares Now?"
Chapter One - Who Cares Now touches on a number of reasons why we should be a caring Nation. The sacrifices made by the Aircrew of R.C.A.F. 405 Pathfinder squadron, complete with names and circumstances, begs the question of caring.
Chapter Two - Ray and Lew, Comrades at Arms. The life story of the authors closest friend, Flying Officer Ray Burgess, and how his life and death impacted on Lew.
Chapter Three - My Brother was a Hero. The Author´s only brother flew Spitfire fighter aircraft in Egypt, Italy and France. Sibling rivalry is a fact of life when one brother flies Lancaster Bombers, and the other Spitfire Fighters.
Chapter Four - Flashback. The Author relies on assisted recall to uncover the highlights and lowlights of 82 years of living.
Chapter Five - Chetwin Hamre Popplewell. This chapter is made possible by the research done by Chet´s cousin Brent Hamre. Brent uncovers every detail of Chet´s training and the missions he flew. The research was so complete that it led to the German pilot who shot Chet down. Chet was the pilot of the Halifax bomber that became the 46th allied aircraft shot down by Major Egmond zur Lippe Weissenfeld. Major zur Lippe ran his total to 51 of our aircraft shot down before he died in March 1944.
Chapter Six - Sixty Years Flying and Still Going Strong. This chapter could be expanded to a book of it´s own. The incidents that go with flying both fixed wing and helicopters for 60 years are described here. Eight hundred of those hours were out of British bases in World War Two.
Chapter Seven - Hilda. Meeting a beautiful Welsh girl in the middle of a German air raid in the middle of World War Two and marrying her six months later, is told as Lew sees it.
Chapter Eight - Lewis. What did the Author expect of life? Time marches on and Lew attempts to keep up with it.

This document is divided into 3 sections (Each section is written by the Chief Scientist):
Return to Top
At 1853 UTC (76 W) we broke out of the stratiform precipitation area just before we turned SE. Spoke to Pete about moving S point to 15 N 74.5 W to put us up the center of the large stratiform region and the trough axis. Pete concurred said they had good wind shift in both convective features. He had strong NE flow after crossing E system where we had strong ESE flow. Apparently the E system was stronger at 500 mb. I mentioned that our estimated surface pressure was the lowest at our W turn point and that possibly a surface circulation might be W of the turn. The low clouds appeared to be spiraling into a region NW of our turn point. 42RF extended its W track to 76.5 W and dropped a GPS sonde at their W turn point. The splash pressure was 1010 mb with ENE winds of 10 kts. From 1900-1920 we tracked SE along the W edge of the large stratiform area (excellent radar presentation) as the winds shifted from E to SE to SSW and increased. At 1921 UTC (15.2 N, 74.68 W) 42RF was directly overhead, 3 min from our S turn point.
At 1924 UTC we tracked N in the middle of the monstrous stratiform region (as big as I ever saw in TOGA COARE - 14 December 1992 comes to mind). We were half way between two intense NNW-SSE bands of convection ( both lines were 20-30 km away). As we tracked N between the lines from 1900-1939 UTC the winds were from the SE at 20-30 kts, there was lightning visible, and extremely heavy rain at the aircraft (great 2D-P data). At 1938 UTC we penetrated an intense reflectivity region encountering a strong wind shift from 160° to 90°, a 5 m s-1 updraft, graupel, and a lot of electrical activity. Pete said 42RF had a similar experience in the same location at 500 mb. They attempted a GPS-sonde drop in the feature with no success. Apparently, there was a pretty good mid-level mesocyclone at that spot. At 2010 UTC we reached the end of our N leg and climbed to ferry altitude for the return to Miami.
Return to Top
The dropsonde intercomparison went very well. Four pairs of sondes were dropped, with 43RF videotaping the GPS-sonde drops from 42RF. Three of the four ODWs worked well. 42RF performed maneuvers on the last two drops to test how the GPS navigation performed in turns.
1. We had power problems with the workstation, similar, but much worse than on the 15 August mission. The problems resulted in Peter Dodge shutting down the workstation for much of the Figure 4 pattern. However, there were other problems noted with the 60-Hz power on the aircraft this time. The 60-Hz bus converter alarm kept going off during turbulence and monitors flickered. Apparently, the workstation is very sensitive to jitters in the 60-Hz power converters. We should get a rack mounted UPS for the work station to prevent this from occurring in the future (AOC talked to Joe Griffin about possible UPS models). After we left the turbulent air Peter Dodge ran the workstation all the way back to Miami with no problems. Hence, we decided not to pull the CPU off. He backed up the whole system and planned to take the DAT back to Joe Griffin to check things out. Subsequent to the flight AOC replaced a bad 60-Hz power converter.
2. The right camera was not functioning during the flight.

DOVER, Del. -- Barbara Cramer and her staff at Incorporating Services Ltd. here missed Christmas.
``We came in early. We didn`t eat lunch. We didn`t go to the bathroom,`` she recalled. Her business -- typical of those in the small but specialized industry of incorporating companies here -- found December to be unusually busy. ``Some of us came in on Saturdays for a few hours. I stayed late several nights. We didn`t have time to Christmas shop.``
Tiny Delaware, famous as the nation`s incorporation capital, has become more popular than ever, 1986 statistics show. The momentum has continued into 1987, said Cramer, who will hire more employees and expand her office.
On Feb. 11, Walt Disney Co. shareholders approved the California-based company`s decision to reincorporate in Delaware. Other major U.S. corporations will ask their shareholders to vote on similar proposals later this year. Delaware will give incorporating an extra boost with its first aggressive promotional campaign.
Delaware has been the favorite legal home of many U.S. corporations for most of this century.
Harris Corp. of Melbourne, Fla., which incorporated in Delaware in 1926, said the state`s main advantages are its corporate laws and legal precedents set in court. While those advantages have evolved over time, a quirk of history helped give Delaware an edge.
New Jersey had been the preferred state until 1913, when Gov. Woodrow Wilson, the future president, pushed passage of laws viewed as anti-business. Many companies reincorporated in nearby Delaware. New Jersey never recouped the loss even after repealing its laws.
A reecent new Delaware law letting firms limit directors` financial liability helped swell the number of new incorporations to 31,545 for 1986 up 19 percent from 26,603 in 1985. There are 176,000 active corporations in Delaware.
A company incorporating in Delaware does not have to operate there but agrees to obey state laws and pay franchise taxes. E.I. du Pont de Nemours & Co., Delaware`s largest employer, is among the few big firms based in the state besides being incorporated there.

You can call me Ceolsige. Or Hanna. IDGAF. I am an accountant by day, a writer by night. I also love (a select few) video games, animals, overeating and taking naps. I live in North Carolina, in the Charlotte area.
Since I learned to scrawl words onto paper I have written stories. As a child I wrote mainly about the adventures of animal characters, but these days I tend to write post-apocalyptic fiction.
The focus of this blog is creative writing, but there will be plenty of miscellaneous posts.
I welcome comments of any kind (except spam –gtfo with that shit), so feel free to provide constructive advice or just say hello.

Custom Ranch Offers Space, Charm, and Quality!
140 Cardinal Ave, Albany, NY 12209
$350,000 | 4 Bedrooms | 2 Bathrooms | 2,300 Square Feet
The builder of this stunning home customized it for his own gracious living. For a building of this time, you'll be surprised with the large size of the closets and the fact that the majority are cedar-lined and have lighting. You'll also be delighted to see that it was also built with ceiling lights in all the bedrooms and light switches at every practical location. And this is just the start!
Outside you'll find character and quality with a brick house and garage, slate roof, and a charming front porch and exterior back patio with low-maintenance yard. The long, wide driveway can park over ten cars, including the two-car detached garage with garage door openers. Take a drive around and you'll see you're just minutes to the Jewish Community Center, shopping, schools, bus line, major highways, more!
As you step inside, you'll be greeted with 9.5' ceilings and a grand foyer with dual closets and bench. To the left, you'll see a spacious living room with fireplace (never used by current owners), and attached Florida room. The formal dining room is next and brings in plenty of natural light through the gorgeous oversized windows.
The eat-in kitchen was just updated in 2016 with new cabinets including deep storage drawers, trash/recycling receptacle, and other custom features. The new cabinets are enhanced with granite counters, under-cabinet lighting and stainless steel appliances.
Off the kitchen is the hallway to four spacious bedrooms, a full bathroom, large linen closet and door to an unfinished attic with high ceilings, just perfect for a future master suite.
The finished basement is a huge bonus of this home, as it was just refreshed and could make a great in-law apartment. It features a large great room including a spacious living area, built-in bar and beautiful new kitchen. There is also an office with closet and full bathroom with shower. The best feature of this basement is the new kitchen that mimics that of the first-floor kitchen, but also has a large island with stool seating. This is also the area you'll find the included washer and dryer.
Off the finished area of the basement, you'll find a large workshop perfect for any project that comes to task. This area also houses the three-zone boiler (installed 2007), new hot water tank (2016), and central air conditioning for the main house (2002). The finished area of the basement has a separate newer air conditioning system. Another special feature of this home is the updated plumbing and the reverse-return hot water line which ensures nearly instant hot water at any faucet. The main water line was also replaced in 2005 and the sewer line has a backflow preventer installed.
It truly has all been thought of for you. There is nothing left to do but move-in and unpack your bags. "Welcome home!"

"We've just come through a year where we've seen a growing number of students, 188 fewer teachers, cuts to programs and layoffs of teaching assistants. Now the provincial government is planning more cuts in education," STF President Patrick Maze said. "This is going to have devastating consequences in the classroom."
The STF has learned school boards have been warned to plan for cuts in education funding in addition to those introduced in last year's budget. In some school divisions, that process is already underway.
The STF has received copies of a memorandum sent out by the Chinook School Division asking teachers, coordinators and administrators to participate in meetings today to "look at programming differently with fewer available resources."
The memorandum goes on to say that the Chinook School Division is currently employing 55 more full-time equivalents (FTEs) than the division is funded for. Teachers are being asked to participate in a review that will "discuss school staffing levels and program options."
"If I were parent of a child in Chinook School Division, I'd be outraged," Maze said.
"Based on what I'm hearing from teachers all over the province, there's no way you can introduce further cuts without seriously harming the quality of education provided to our children," Maze said.
These additional cuts come against the backdrop of the aggressive goals for improvement set out by the current government in its Saskatchewan Plan For Growth, released in 2012.
That plan described educating, training and developing a skilled workforce as one of the six core growth activities of government.
"Here we have a government loudly proclaiming their dedication to important educational goals, then cutting the resources needed to achieve them through back-to-back austerity budgets in education," Maze said. "It's the height of hypocrisy."

With backing from The Clinton Foundation and celebrity support from numerous stars including Pactricia Arquette, Donna Karan and Rachel Bilson, CHOOSE HAITI will hopefully have no problem reaching its goal of selling one million "Choose Haiti" bracelets.
Made in Haiti by local artisans, the new bracelets are made from bottles bought in bulk from tent camp residents (after they've been sanitized, cut and then covered with recycled newspaper). The eco-friendly, one-of-a-kind bracelets - priced at just $5.00 each - will hopefully create jobs for thousands of unemployed Haitian workers today, and help create a more sustainable future (not to mention cleaning up loads of litter) for this determined and courageous nation.
Bracelets are currently available at Forever 21, Footlocker, Anna´s Linens, QVC and Beyond the Rack, or click here to order online.

April 19 - May 5, 2019
Level of Diving
Diving will be in warm water off of the shore. Minimum 3mm wetsuit and dive boots are required. This trip is good for all levels of divers, including junior divers. Great place to finish your required open water dives for certification.
Please note, dives on this trip are not guided by a Divemaster. Divers will be able to explore the island and the divesites at their leisure. Guidance and advice regarding divesites and points of interest will be provided by the trip leader at the beginning and throughout the trip.
Get Certified!
Bonaire is a great place for beginner divers and a great place to finish your open water training. Complete your classroom & pool training with us in Edmonton, then join us on our spring trip to Bonaire to finish your open water training dives. We will have an instructor on the trip that will complete your training dives over the first two days and then you'll be certified to dive with a buddy for the rest of the trip. (Scroll to the bottom of the page and click on the Trip Brochure link for more info).
Snorkeling Adventure!
Not into scuba diving? No problem! Bonaire has fantastic snorkeling as well and quite often at the very same sites that the divers are at so you'll never feel left out or left behind to sit at the resort by yourself (unless you want the peace and quiet). We will have a snorkeling instructor on hand to show you some basic snorkeling skills and then you will head out to two different snorkeling sites for a guided snorkeling adventures! Great way to learn good snorkeling techniques and become familiar with the ocean environment with an experience snorkeling instructor by your side. You will be more comfortable and confident to continue snorkeling the rest of your holiday. (Scroll to the bottom of the page and click on the Trip Brochure link for more info).
Bonaire is known as the Caribbean's diving and snorkeling paradise. Located off the coast of Venezuala and next to Aruba and Curaco, Bonaire is a small, Dutch island that is part of the Netherlands. It is best known around the world for the healthy and abundant marine life and was one of the first islands to distinguish its precious reefs as a protected marine park. Weather conditions are very consistent throughout the year and a tradewind sweeps across the island almost relentlessly providing a gentle breeze through the warm days and nights. Water termperature is warm ranging from the high seventies to low eighties fahrenheit.
The diving is about as easy and laid-back as you will find anywhere in the world. Because the reef is only a couple minutes swim off the beach, shore diving and snorkeling is the most popular way to enjoy the underwater world. The road that fringes along the island is lined with yellow-painted rocks that indicate the name of the dive site. Drive onto the beach (made up of dead, broken coral), grab your gear, and go! Diving is 24 hours a day... get up early, sleep in, go for a night dive.... it's all up to you!
Although diving and snorkeling are the most popular activities on the island, there are a lot of other things for people to do and see. There is windsurfing, kayaking, beaches, yachting, birding, and lots of sight-seeing. The Washington-Slagbaai National Park offers a variety of vegetation, animals, and birds inlcuding flamingoes, wild donkeys, and goats. The two main cities are Kralendijk and Rincon and both offer a glimpse into the Bonairian culture. Lots of fantastic and reasonably priced restaurants and grocery stores can be found around every corner.
The Resort
Perla Boneriano is a small, quiet resort located in the midst of all the popular shore-diving and snorkeling sites. Head north or south and you'll have a tough time deciding which site is your favorite. Within a half block of the resort are lots of retail outlets including a gift shop, liquor store, ice cream shop, bank, fitness centre, massage facility, and lots of restaurants and lounges to relax.
There are seven villas within the resort with a total of only forty beds, ensuring lots of quiet and privacy. Most villas are 2-bedroom villas, some one level and some two levels. The two bedroom villas include two bathrooms located off the bedroom and a small half-bath in the common living area. There is one villa that is one bedroom if you prefer more privacy. The villas are all equipped with fully-functioning kitchens, covered patios, patio furniture including pool lounge chairs, air-condition, TV, free wifi internet, outdoor shower, and gear rinse stations.
The villas surround a swimming pool that is perfect for cooling off after a hot day of diving or for lounging around with a good book.
There is a small, secluded beach located within a five minute walk which has great snorkeling and diving. It's not well known so tends to be quiet and great for relaxing or playing in the sand.
Dive shops are located..... everywhere, making access to air or nitrox tanks a breeze. Rental gear is available as well as technical diving services.
Because the villas are fully furnished with kitchen essentials, eating in is easy to do. Grocery stores are fully stocked with high quality meats, baked goods, canned goods, and fresh fruit & vegetables.There are many restaurant options as well and meals are reasonably priced.

My friend, Art Harun posted the speech transcript below.
This was a speech made by Najib in 2012.
After I read it, all I could say was CIBAI LA. NIAMAH!!!
".......so we can best foster tolerance and understanding not by silencing the voice of hatred but by making the voice of reason louder" ah?
Yormarder la!!!
A great and magnificent speech about the goodness of moderation. This is an example of how a great leader can change the world by espousing moderation to fight extremism.
This should be emulated by every leader in the world.
"In Islam, the Prophet Muhammad counsels that "moderation is the best of actions"; in Christianity, the Bible says "let your moderation be known unto all men"; and in Judaism, the Torah teaches that moderation in all things is a "way of life" in the truest sense of Jewish custom.
But if moderation has long had a home within the world religions, then the reverse is also true: extremism has never been welcome inside our mosques, churches, synagogues and temples. Perpetuating hatred is, by its very nature, a lonely pursuit, flying in the face of widely held morality – and it is this dangerously untethered animus, coupled with a head-in-the-sand refusal to acknowledge the views and the values of others, that makes extremism such a potent threat.
And yet, time and again the side of righteousness has triumphed. History has been made not by those who espoused extremism but by those who, without surrendering their beliefs, stayed true to the path of moderation. We are all familiar with the extraordinary strength of will and leadership of Mahatma Gandhi, Nelson Mandela and Aung San Suu Kyi, but you don't have to be a world leader to be an inspiration. Moderates can make a difference wherever they make a stand – and it is time for the massed ranks of the moderates everywhere to stand up and to say to the extremists with a single breath a firm, resounding "no".
Because one thing is clear: we cannot rid the world of extreme views by force. Violence begets violence – so we can best foster tolerance and understanding not by silencing the voice of hatred but by making the voice of reason louder. Persuasion, negotiation and co-operation: these must be our weapons in the face of enmity and malice." : End quote

According to the developers of Alchemy Network Monitor, it's estimated that network failures cost 3-5 billion dollars to companies each year. Surveys show that an average network administrator reports 3 to 15 serious network malfunctions annually. Yet most of these problems could be easily avoided – if the administrator had proper network monitoring software installed. If you're a network administrator and need to be on 24 hour call, but at the same time you don't want to hang around the office all day waiting for the worst, then this is a really interesting little app for you.
Alchemy Network Monitor utilises several network protocols such as TCP/IP, ICMP (ping), IPX/SPX, POP3, SMTP, Oracle and MySQL to continually monitor the status of your network. If any problem is detected or if the sever goes down, Alchemy Network Monitor can warn the network administrator via mobile phone SMS or email.
You can do this by instructing Alchemy Network Monitor to send an email to your default email address provided by your mobile network. If you don't have this, you can use the Alchemy Alert plugin which will forward a warning to your phone. Alternatively, you can also use the program to launch external programs that can send SMS such as Skype or other 3rd party software. This is a really useful app for network administrators on the move.

The fundamental forces shaping the US military for a long time have been the extended reach and challenges of extended operations in Iraq and Afghanistan. Today, it faces new budgetary pressures under a political focus on deficit reduction and domestic priorities. Here's an analysis of the international relations by our Associate Editor, Navodita. We begin a new weekly column, every Saturday, this week. A Different Truths exclusive.
The recent US Navy plane crash off Okinawa coast that left eleven people dead has sent waves of uncertainty and distress across the US Navy. Eight people have been rescued and are in good condition aboard the carrier, said the US Navy in a statement. However, the US and Japanese ships and planes are searching the area for the three people who have gone missing since.
It's been a difficult year for the Navy in the western North Pacific following a spate of incidents – most involving ships assigned to the East Asia-based US 7th Fleet – that included the death of 17 sailors. Earlier, it was USS Fitzgerald and USS John S. McCain and now it's USS Ronald Reagan. The Navy has launched multiple investigations and reviews in the wake of this year's accidents.
Meanwhile, the US military has also banned the consumption of alcohol among its troops in the wake of this accident. The military said its forces on Okinawa must stay on base or at home. The crash is likely to renew resentment over the US military's presence on Okinawa. Last year, Prime Minister Shinzo Abe protested to then President Barack Obama after a Japanese woman was allegedly raped and murdered by a US military contractor on Okinawa. His trial began last week as he admitted raping her but not murdering her.
The US military, despite downsizing after the Cold War, maintains global reach, missions, tasks, and considerations. The United States Armed Forces consists of the Army, Marine Corps, Navy, Air Force and Coast Guard. President Trump remains the Commander-in-Chief of the US Armed Forces and forms military policy with the U.S. Department of Defense and U.S. Department of Homeland Security, both deferral executive departments, acting as the principal organs by which military policy has carried out.
The fundamental forces shaping the US military for a long time have been the extended reach and challenges of extended operations in Iraq and Afghanistan. Today, it faces new budgetary pressures under a political focus on deficit reduction and domestic priorities. There were three notable changes in the US military between 1996 and 2015 – precision munitions, especially air-delivered ones, had become the norm rather than the exception. Precision-guided munitions constituted only 7 percent of the air-to-surface weapons employed in the 1991 Gulf War but 70 percent of those used during the 'major combat' phase of Operation Iraqi Freedom in 2003.
Second, the Air Force and Navy have benefitted from improvements in key platforms. F-22 "Raptor" procurement is now complete, and it should be able to operate in heavily defended airspace that would be prohibitively dangerous to older jets. A third change has been the introduction of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) into the arsenal. In 1996, neither the Navy nor the Air Force had any operational UAVs, while the Army and Marine Corps each fielded a handful. Armed UAVs, especially the MQ-1 Predator and MQ-9 Reaper, have been heavily used in Afghanistan and Iraq. The most important influence on the size and development of the US military during this period were the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. The war against the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) and other smaller conflicts have, thus far, seen operations on a significantly smaller scale with correspondingly lower costs.
Through 2017, the US military will continue to evolve, but the likely changes will be evolutionary rather than revolutionary. F-35 schedules continue to slide, and although the US Government Accountability Office predicts that more than 350 aircraft will be delivered to the U.S. Air Force, Navy, and Marine Corps by 2017, it does not expect that the aircraft will be ready for initial operational testing by 2017. At the same time, further shrinkage in the Air Force fighter inventory can be expected.
With the recent and most ambitious five-nation trip by President Trump to Asia, US is seeking not just new trade deals with Asian partners but also seeking a diplomatic pressure against North Korea by these nations. Despite the self-proclaimed triumph, the success of Trump's trip actually depends on what he – and China, North Korea, South Korea and Japan, among others – do in the months or years ahead.
As far as Asia is concerned, Washington has begun to focus more heavily on US difference capabilities in Asia – particularly the challenge posed by Chinese power – in shaping policies, plan, and procurements. The clearest and most comprehensive public statement to this effect can be found in a January 2012 DoD document, 'Sustaining U.S. Global Leadership: Priorities for 21st Century Defense'. The document highlights the mix of 'evolving challenges and opportunities in Asia and states, "while the U.S. military will continue to contribute to global security, we will of necessity rebalance toward the Asia-Pacific region."
While Modi's visit to the US and Barack Obama's visit to India in 2015 seem to start off a bilateral dialogue between the two nations, similar efforts by Indian Ambassador to the US Navtej Sarna were taken when he hosted a reception for the National Governor's Association, which was attended by the Governors of 25 states and senior representatives of three states. This was the first time such an event had occurred and seemed to put the final 'business seal' to the military relations that have developed over the years.

What is a typical Sunday morning experience for our children?
The Youth Education Program at Unity of Buffalo begins upstairs in our sanctuary. The children and their accompanying adults have the opportunity to sing together and pray with our full community. After this, I lead the children that want to be part of the children's program that day downstairs, while the congregation blesses us by singing, "We are Walking in the Light."
Once downstairs, we have a moment to say hello and then we usually begin with the sound of chimes. I tell the children to listen to see how long they can hear the sound which seems to help them focus and still their bodies.
Next, we say the Prayer for Protection. From time to time when new children are present, I share that this is one of my favorite prayers, particularly when I am troubled by something goingon in my life. I offer the suggestion to envision each line of the prayer… the light of God surrounding us, the love of God enfolding us, the power of God protecting us, the presence of God watching over us.
Next we have a relatively brief lesson on a basic Unity principle, a spiritual idea. Again, especially with new visitors, I explain that I am there to share with them ideas that Unity teaches. I tell them that they do not need to agree, that they can find the answers in their own hearts. I often read a book or lead the children in a process or discussion that illustrates the idea. I encourage their ideas and perspectives. Often, but not always, the lesson I share has the same theme as the adult lesson upstairs.
Following this time, we usually do some sort of activity connected to the lesson such as art, an experiment, a food project or game. Sometimes my planning may seem out of synch with the children and I modify to meet the needs of the children present. I always hope the children can have fun as they explore the world of Spirit.
By this time, the kids are often eager for a snack. I try to find things that are both tasty and reasonably healthy. Then, a bit of free play perhaps, and soon we hear the words to the Peace song, the closing song for the service upstairs wafting down to our area. The children often grab a Friendship Hour bite of something to eat, greet their adults and continue to enjoy each other's company.
That's a Sunday in my life at Unity of Buffalo…
Dawn Lewandowski, Youth Education Director

Like any form of literature, when short stories are done well, they can be absolutely divine – they're an integral part of the fiction portfolio and they're storming the book shelves of all the good book shops and their writers are getting ever higher profiles.
I have long a particular fondness for the short story with Roald Dahl being a staple of my early years…I will never forget the story in one of his collections where the protagonist, Billy, ends up in a B&B in Bath faced with the very real prospect of becoming a stuffed piece of furniture.
More recently, Rachel Trezise and Anneliese Mackintosh have topped off my 'just read and totally loved' pile of books and the London Short Story Festival made me hungry for more.
The festival was directed by a friend of mine, Paul McVeigh, who himself is a very talented man with his stories appearing on BBC Radio 4 and he recently performed at the night that I run, Listen Softly London (obviously he was far more excited about the latter).
Held at Waterstones in Piccadilly, it was a case of many worlds colliding as writers, editors, book lovers and a man with a doll listened to stories, shared experiences and asked questions. There were, over the weekend, a range of free and paid for events and I can't compliment the festival enough for reaching out as far and as wide as possible to ensure that people of all backgrounds felt that the event was accessible.
A highlight of the festival for me was seeing Maia Jenkins, winner of GQ Norman Mailer Student Writing Prize, read one of her stories and meeting Dan Coxon editor of the fantastic Litro magazine for good chats over wine and crisps. There were also some moving pieces of work read in Speakers Corner, where for absolutely nothing you got to hear some fine authors read their work, and a highlight of this for me was hearing from English Pen and their latest book which is an anthology of work written by prisoners during their creative writing classes.
The weekend intoxicated me with words and I can't wait for next year's festival to come around. I've already submitted one short story to a magazine off the back of inspiration I found in a Litro magazine workshop, and I've been scribbling down more ideas.
Maybe one day I'll write something over a page long…
Big applause to those who backed the event – Waterstones, London Irish Centre, Salt, Litro and Popshot magazine!

Howdy folks!
So I'm normally trolling around the PS4 section.. This last weekend I said, what the heck, I'll get a PS Vita. Since Target is departing Canada they were 20% off. So I have Borderlands 2 and I got some other game that's name is eluding me right now. Haha. Got the Borderlands 2 bundle.
Love the size of it, the feel, all of it. I had a PSP Go when it first game out.. Blaaaah. Garbage. Small screen, crappy controls. Never used the thing because of it. Definitely looking forward to playing more on the Vita. Great system

Google Street View exposes SAS bases
Google's Street View service, which has recently been dramatically expanded, has again driven into controversy by publishing photographs of the entrances to several secret British military bases.
Paul Keetch, the South Herefordshire MP whose constituency includes an SAS base whose entrances appeared on Google Street View late last week told the BBC: "If you are a terrorist and you can get a detailed photo of a military installation for free online, that's bound to encourage you to think maybe I can break in there."
Google had responded: "Street View is only made up of images from public roads and so it's to be expected that buildings that anyone can see walking down the street may appear". But it appears to have changed its mind this morning.
Since warnings from the UK government which says the company has breached the Official Secrets Act that prohibits "loitering, photography, sketching" of sensitive buildings, the Google Street View pictures of the base's entrance are no longer online. It's understood that other controversial sites, including Aldermaston (atomic research), RAF Menwith Hill and Thames House will also be removed.

Essential Information
A Doctor of Philosophy in Creative Writing program features a unique blend of both creative work and scholarly study of literature, including literary history and theory. Students study a variety of genres, including poetry, creative nonfiction, short fiction, screenplays and playwriting while honing their craft as writers.
Applicants to these programs must have a bachelor's and master's degree in English or another relevant discipline. Other admissions requirements will vary according to the institution, but a minimum GPA and GRE scores are likely to be required. Most institutions also request creative writing samples in more than one genre or style or in critical writing.
Most Ph.D. programs in creative writing require 4-8 years of full-time study and require 30-60 credit hours beyond what is required for a master's degree. A large portion of these programs is devoted to the creation and defense of a creative dissertation, which may take the form of a full-length novel or novella; a collection of poetry or short fiction; or a play or screenplay.

Employment Outlook and Salary Info
According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, employment of English language and literature postsecondary educators was expected to increase by 10% from 2014-2024.

When Flair was first hospitalized, his manager, Melinda Morris Zanoni of Legacy Talent and Entertainment, indicated it was for routine monitoring and there was no reason to panic. Shortly after midnight on Sunday night, the situation seemed to worsen with her tweeting to pray for and send positive energy to The Nature Boy.
Head WWE producer Michael Hayes visited Flair on Sunday and tweeted that he can "assure" that Flair needs everyone's prayers and positive vibes.
TMZ reported Monday afternoon that Flair was in a medically induced coma and was being prepped for surgery. As mentioned in this report, that surgery has been performed.

CAIRO — Staring gloomily at the street from her tiny neighborhood store, Nagwa Arafat wondered whether she should keep her shop open around the clock with business so bad.
``Nobody has any money,`` complained the middle-age shopkeeper whose corner store sits on Al Gamaliya Street in one of Cairo`s poorest and most crowded neighborhoods. ``They can`t buy, and without their money, I can`t buy things to sell,`` she said.

It's Not Often We're Wowed...
The quote is from a transcript of the proceedings at the Tunis Symposium on Advocacy in Music Education back in 2009 and comes from Wayne Bowman.
Mr. Bowman is a professor of music education at Brandon University in Manitoba, Canada and has written extensively about philosophical perspectives in music and music education. We look forward to learning more about him and reading more of his work. But for now, let us allow his quote to wash over us...
"And all too often advocacy claims sound like last gasp efforts to defend instructional practices that have simply failed to keep pace with social and musical change."
If you are a music maker or music teacher at any level, read the full transcript here, it will be well worth your time. And hopefully you'll be as gassed as we were to hear such insight.
It's time music educators re-vamped their approach, be more inclusive, professional, and by all means, modernize materials and practices to catch up to what is expected by today's students. Not doing so risks extinction.

"And all too often advocacy claims sound like last gasp efforts to defend instructional practices that have simply failed to keep pace with social and musical change."
That sentiment can be applied outside of education too. I was having a discussion just the other day with the Exec. Dir. of Michigan State's Wharton Center for the performing arts about how the United States orchestra model is broker. But the people in their development depts. keep issuing their "last gasp" requests for donations.
I'm thinking a lot about how the wikipedia model might be applied to music making. I'm not yet sure how it would work, but decentralization strikes me as a potential boost for art music.

We have said there has never been a greater disconnect between those who teach music and those who want access to music education. And I imagine the same might be said about those who run orchestras, those who perform in them and those who buy the tickets. I like the way you think - thanks for the comment.

It's been utter chaos lately, meeting followed by meeting followed by people who you've got to question how the fuck they get paid what they do for what they actually do. It's in these moments I drift and check out all little things that make them…who they are (there's only so many tan sandals you can see before driftage kicks in) . From clashing leopard prints and stripes effortlessly (bitch, I'd pay her for how well she was dressed) to a man batting his stunningly long eyelashes at me ( now known as eyelash man at my work) I try find something of….uniqueness in everyone. After months of dealing with someone painlessly through email, meeting them this week floored me. Freckles they get me every goddamn time. Freckles that are embraced and not hidden, freckles that are flaunted, and styled. Freckles over every goddamn inch of her. Seriously I've cursed this woman for months. Her ineptitude has pushed me to near tears….. Yet today I was hers. Yes ma'm, okay ma'm give me 10,000 of those tan sandals. Sigh

This lesson plan has students examine the role of precedent in Supreme Court decisions and explores why precedents are usually followed and what justices take into consideration when they overturn precedents. Students will analyze the case of Dickerson v. United States (2000), which most Court watchers predicted Chief Justice William Rehnquist would use to overturn the precedents established in Miranda v. Arizona (1966). Finally, students will trace the Miranda decision to Yarborough v. Alvarado (2004), a case that answered the question of whether juveniles are entitled to special procedures for Miranda warnings.
