Atlanta hotels
What travelers to Atlanta are saying
General Information
The host of the memorable 1996 Summer Olympics is a vibrant city, with a vast metro population of well over 5 million people. A major commercial and transportation hub, Atlanta is the gateway and unofficial capital of the South.
A notable role in the Civil War and Civil Rights Movement puts the city on the map for many tourists. Sweet Auburn is a U.S. National Historic Landmark District that contains many vital monuments, from the Martin Luther King, Jr., National Historic Site to the Odd Fellows Building and Auditorium. A tour of the peerless district is a must. Other points of interest like the world class Georgia Aquarium, World of Coca-Cola and CNN Center remain wildly popular with international visitors. Centennial Olympic Park preserves the legacy of the 1996 Games and affluent Buckhead is a superb entertainment and nightlife district. In the end however, Atlanta's quiet "Old South vs. modern global city" identity crisis is what makes the city so magnetic.

Lakers center Dwight Howard says he didn't mean any disrespect toward his former Magic teammates with his recent comments.
- Filed Under
By the time Los Angeles Lakers center Dwight Howard was done talking from his kitchen table chair in his Bel Air home, telling his side of his story that is being revisited because of today's reunion game in Orlando, the familiar tingling in both of his legs had returned.
The player once known as Superman, whose back surgery in April turned him into Clark Kent for several months and whose uncertain future has been an NBA hot topic for so long now, was reminded yet again that he's not himself just yet. He's getting there, though, and the timing may wind up being just right.

Superman & Batman movie will follow Man of Steel

Re: Superman & Batman movie will follow Man of Steel
^ True. But those characters were very much supporting characters and I don't believe (but an subject to correction) that solo films are planned for any of them beyond general 'maybe' replies to interviews. The logo for the Superman/Batman one contains both of their symbols so it really looks to me (at this admittedy very early stage) like a joint movie, as oppose to the Marvel approach of supporting roles from other characters from that universe.
True, this. Sure sounds like a joint adventure, which isn't going to appeal to everyone who isn't an enthusiastic fan of different comic series. More casual comic fans or non comic fans who might happen to enjoy an individual movie series with Superman, Batman, Ironman et al will look at a title like Superman vs. Batman and ask, "What?"

Despite the augmenting number of mega-mergers and acquisitions in the pharmaceutical industry worldwide, many companies have chosen strategic alliances such as co-promotion deals with other drug makers, licensing agreements to manufacture and/or distribute drugs developed by other firms, and research collaborations with other firms to develop new biotech products. In analyzing alliances in the pharmaceutical industry, we will first introduce general industry characteristics. Then, we will examine specific cases within the framework of the strategic alliance conceptual model (refer to Figure 3.4).
Worldwide sales of pharmaceutical products, both prescriptions and over-thecounter (OTC) medicines, reached $315 billion in 1998—up from $297 billion in 1997 with prescription drugs accounting for approximately 60 percent of sales. 1 The United States accounts for about 40 percent of the total of retail sales worldwide, with Europe at 32 percent, Japan at 24 percent, and other areas accounting for only 4 percent of total sales. 2 In other words, the most important market is a "triad" consisting of the United States, Europe, and Japan. Then, any pharmaceutical company trying to be internationally competitive must have operations or links in this "triad." Once, Ohmae asserted that the global competitive success of companies depends upon their presence in all markets in the "triad." 3 For global pharmaceutical firms, it is especially important to have a presence in the U.S. market, which represents the majority of the worldwide

Judge Sebe Dale's Charge to the Pearl River County Grand Jury (Poplarville Democrat, Nov. 5, 1959) Nov. 5, 1959, Judge Sebe Dale Delivers Strong Charge to Grand Jury without Mentioning Specific Cases
Gentlemen of the Jury: It has seemed well that my charge on this occasion should be written, and read as written, for a wise man of old said "that writing makes an exact man" and there are times when we should be careful, if not exact.
You are called upon to perform one of the most serious and important duties that is the part of a citizen to perform. Many of you have worn the uniform of the armed services, and before doing so you took a solemn oath. But I doubt that such duty in the armed forces was more sacred and more important than that which you are now called on to perform, and in registering to vote, thereby qualifying for jury duty, you took an oath that was just as solemn as was the oath upon entering the armed forces, for in each instance you closed with "and will bear true faith and allegiance to the same. So Help Me God." So it seems that you are no less soldiers today, guarding and protecting the welfare of your people, requiring much courage. May we truly understand and believe.
Section 1781, Mississippi Code, reads in part; "The judge shall charge the grand jury concerning its duties and expound the law to it as he shall deem proper; and he shall particularly give it in charge the statutes against gambling, bucket shops and the unlawful selling of intoxicating liquors, those relating to gambling minors, and the giving or selling them tobacco or liquors; those providing for assessment, collection and disbursement of the public revenues, state and county; those defining the duties of public officers; and especially those relating to collection and payment over fines and forfeitures those against

Visit to Exeter on the occasion of our friends' 50th wedding anniversary celebration.
Staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful.
Holiday Inn Exeter is undergoing a major refurbishment, so we look forward to seeing many improvements in the near future. Our room was fine, everything we needed, although next time we'll try for a room for folk with disabilities, which would have made getting our transit wheelchair into the room a bit easier, with more space to manoeuvre and also a wet room, although the shower in our room was better for us than a bath. There isn't an in-house restaurant, but the first night, when we didn't want to go out again after our journey, we were able to get a pizza from the bar. The buffet breakfast was well stocked for all tastes and I was able to take our selection back to the room, as my husband is unable to get up in the mornings, having PD. We have become aware, having stayed in another HI earlier in the summer, that they are not clones of each other and have their own characteristics, which is a good thing.

"Liberating, and extremely helpful"
I bought this book after a huge row with my wife. I wish I'd bought it earlier. It would have saved me a lot of trouble. This book is practical, challenging, and extremely helpful. It may be short, but it contains essential nuggets of truth that will turn your life the right way up.
I have listened to "Making Marriage Work" several times during my drives to and from work. It's short and relatable. It has helped me to feel hopeful about my relationship when I had been letting myself get bogged down with disappointment and dispair. Working on positive sentiment overload and avoiding the "Four Horsemen of the Apocolypse" have been invaluable tools for me.
"Jam-packed with a lifetime of gems"
I'll keep it short. This guy is the real deal. You can tell he has worked in this industry for decades. The whole thing is packed full of little pearls of wisdom... all based off of REAL research on REAL people. I felt like I was listening to a "cheat sheet" of answers to marriage's major issues. It's short and that's good because he moves quickly and it never drags. It's one powerful point after another. Each point he makes is dead-on correct too!
"For every married couple"
This is a short talk filled with information critical to married people, (actually all relationships). If you care about a relationship, avoid the 4 Horsemen Gottman speaks about. Listen to this talk, it's short, informative and critical.
"Clear and to the point!"
Great presenter! His ideas and research were easy to understand and actionable. Would highly recommend!
"Great Into"
Great introduction to the study of marriages and relationships by Dr. John Gottman. I'm looking forward to learning and exploring more with his many other published works.
"An eye opener"
This short talk helped me in my thought process when it comes to relationships. I see where I have been inadequate in my communication and I feel like I have the keys to the kingdom now.
"very helpful and well researched info "
i would recommend this to anyone in a long term relationship. well researched, easy to listen to.
"What every marriage needs..."
Fantastic data and understanding about how to build lasting intimacy and friendship inside of marriage. I really appreciated that some conflicts are truly never solved but that they are keys to unlocking intimacy. And that inside those conflicts are dreams that are stifled. Really good stuff and challenging.
"definitely worth listening"
lots of insight very calminf voice uses humor to help us realize that we are just as normal as the next
"Must know stuff"
Yes, I think I am going to listen to it a few more times because it has advice obtained scientifically through a lengthy and thorough study. It doesn't give a lot of complicated tips and hints you have to have faith in. It rather tells you what it has been observed to work empirically and you can trust without faith.
It is quite short, so you definitely want to listen in one sitting. Then, listen to it again on a different day.
"Best 46 minutes you will ever spend"
Highly recommended. Clear, concise and a perfect summary of his longer works. It covers what makes relationships work and what ensures they do not succeed. Good introduction to the rest of Gottman's work. Packed with his key ideas in a nutshell. It helps to hear the author himself give this talk. Seems like a nice bloke. I have all his works and have studied his research.

Marriage and Divorce American Style: A Destructive Marriage Is Not a Happy Family. (Cover Story)
Hetherington, E. Mavis, The American Prospect
ON AVERAGE, RECENT STUDIES SHOW, PARENTS and children in married families are happier, healthier, wealthier, and better adjusted than those in single-parent households. But these averages conceal wide variations. Before betting the farm on marriage with a host of new government programs aimed at promoting traditional two-parent families and discouraging divorce, policy makers should take another look at the research. It reveals that there are many kinds of marriage and not all are salutary. Nor are all divorces and single-parent experiences associated with lasting distress. It is not the inevitability of positive or negative responses to marriage or divorce that is striking, but the diversity of them.
Men do seem to benefit simply from the state of being married. Married men enjoy better health and longevity and fewer psychological and behavioral problems than single men. But women, studies repeatedly have found, are more sensitive to the emotional quality of the marriage. They benefit from being in a well-functioning marriage, but in troubled marriages they are likely to experience depression, immune-system breakdowns, and other health-related problems.
We saw the same thing in the project I directed at the Hetherington Laboratory at the University of Virginia, which followed 1,400 divorced families, including 2,500 kids--some for as long as 30 years--interviewing them, testing them, and observing them at home, at school, and in the community. This was the most comprehensive study of divorce and remarriage ever undertaken; for policy makers, the complexity of the findings is perhaps its most important revelation.
By statistical analysis, we identified five broad types of marriage--ranging from "pursuer-distancer" marriages (which we found were the most likely to end in divorce), to disengaged marriages, to operatic marriages, to "cohesive-individuated" marriages, and, finally, to traditional marriages (which had the least risk of instability).
To describe them briefly:
* Pursuer-distancer marriages are those mismatches in which one spouse, usually the wife, wants to confront and discuss problems and feelings and the other, usually the husband, wants to avoid confrontations and either denies problems or withdraws.
* Disengaged marriages are ones where couples share few interests, activities, or friends. Conflict is low, but so is affection and sexual satisfaction.
* Operatic marriages involve couples who like to function at a level of extreme emotional arousal. They are intensely attracted, attached, and volatile, given both to frequent fighting and to passionate lovemaking.
* Cohesive-individuated marriages are the yuppie and feminist ideal, characterized by equity, respect, warmth, and mutual support, but also by both partners retaining the autonomy to pursue their own goals and to have their own friends.
* Traditional marriages are those in which the husband is the main income producer and the wife's role is one of nurturance, support, and home and child care. These marriages work well as long as both partners continue to share a traditional view of gender roles.
We found that not just the risk of divorce but also the extent of women's psychological and health troubles varies according to marriage type--with wives in pursuer-distancer and disengaged marriages experiencing the most problems, those in operatic marriages significantly having fewer, and those in cohesive-individuated and traditional marriages the fewest. Like so many other studies, we found that men's responses are less nuanced; the only differentiation among them was that men in pursuer-distancer marriages have more problems than those in the other four types.
The issue is not simply the amount of disagreement in the marriage; disagreements, after all, are endemic in close personal relations. It is how people disagree and solve problems--how they interact--that turns out to be closely associated with both the duration of their marriages and the well-being of wives and, to a lesser extent, husbands. …

Investigators believe the crash occurred when the rotator blades touched of a chopper that was landing and one that was taking off. The collision caused extensive damage to both aircraft, crumpling the tail and breaking the blades of one and causing the blade to fall off and other damages to the other. The injured included a pilot and an observer in each of the Bell OH-58A helicopters and two officers on the ground. The FAA and the National Transportation Safety Board were investigating.

This is me. This is Rick Ross. As you can probably guess, we don't exactly have a lot in common, but I am trying to change that. I don't really have a choice. Rick Ross is transforming my life.
Over the space of three months, he's released two stupendous projects — The Albert Anastasia EP (a mixtape, which, for reasons known only to him, is actually 13 tracks long) and Teflon Don, which, by the time you read this, will probably be sitting at #1 on the Billboard 200 — that made me start Googling stuff like "Big Meech" and "Larry Hoover".
He caused me to ponder just why some cocaine is nicknamed "Archie Bunker" (duh, because it's so white!), and walk around my apartment shouting "F— the judge, prosecutor and the district attorney!" so loudly that my wife is starting to reconsider our marriage. He has even forced me to reconsider my feelings on Diddy .
Clearly, big things are afoot.
I'm not really sure why any of this is happening but I'm certainly not the only one who feels this way, as Teflon Don has received a groundswell of critical acclaim from a host of, shall we say, less than traditional media outlets. So it might be as simple as the fact that the album is really good. But there are plenty of really good albums released each year, and most of them don't get this kind of attention, so that may not entirely explain why Ricky is having his moment right now.
It could have something to do with the elaborate, wide-screen world he's created for himself — a downright "Scarfacian" sphere of swagger and sophistication — or the way he lumbers between those two extremes, oftentimes in the same song, and always convincingly so (a feat his contemporaries have yet to truly master). It might be the monolithic figure he cuts or the lengths he goes to in order to keep his granite-hard Boss persona intact (arriving at a strip club by helicopter was a genius touch), or the fact that, despite those things, he's still not afraid to release a song like "Tears of Joy," a complicated, (sorta) fragile pondering of his life of excess.
There are a million more reasons — his innate ability to positively destroy the first four bars of a song (see "Blowin' Money Fast (B.M.F.)"), his ability to bring out the best in dudes like Jay-Z ("Free Mason") and the aforementioned Diddy — and all of them are probably correct. But they all point to the same thing: Right now, there's no one as compelling as him, no one as multifaceted, no one as interesting. Sure, Eminem has released his million-selling mea culpa, Recovery, and whenever Kanye comes back, certainly the entire world will be waiting to hear what he has to say (and if his verse on Teflon Don's "Live Fast, Die Young" is any indication, he's gonna be plenty mad), but at the moment, Ross is Boss. At least for me.
And in a lot of respects, Teflon Don came to me at exactly the right time. For whatever reason, I find most rock music — or at least everything that goes into it — to be intolerably boring at the moment. Perhaps I've been around it for too long, have interviewed too many mumbling white dudes with beards, but I'm having a hard time feigning interest, no matter how great the efforts of the National or the Arcade Fire may be. Win Butler is no Rick Ross, after all. He's interminably real. Ross — with his minks and Maybachs, his tales of mansions and machine guns (be they real or imagined) — is downright fictional, like a character out of a movie. I don't care about his prison-guard past, or whether he actually moves keys of coke through Biscayne Bay, I just want to be entertained and enthralled, and if it's by an extra hefty man with a huge beard, well, then all the better.
So that probably explains why I've become obsessed. Maybe it means I'm regressing, but that doesn't bother me. After all, there was a time in my life when I loved pro wrestling too. And listening to Teflon Don is a lot like the WWE, only with more bullets. It's theater. It's art. It's awesome and everything I've been looking for. Because I don't want to be morose right now. I want to get "Super High." Give me fiction, give me fantasy, give me velvet-draped, cognac-drenched, caviar-wishes-and-cocaine dreams. Give me the Bawse. I'm ready too. I've already started growing the beard and everything.

Here's a look back at the week in real estate. For more real estate coverage, follow reporter Lily Leung on Twitter @lilyshumleung or on Facebook at facebook.com/sdutleung.
Monday: The U-T San Diego released the final part of a three-part Web series reviewing local real estate trends of 2011.
Part one was an overview of homebuyers chasing value. Part two broke down which price ranges buyers preferred. The final segment was on cash buyers and investors. (utsandiego.com/buyers)
Tuesday: Rental housing is coming to the South Bay, adjacent to the U.S. Olympic Training Center. Chula Vista Mayor Cheryl Cox anticipates that visiting athletes will take advantage of the housing option once it goes online in the fall.
Wednesday: DataQuick's monthly report reveals that home prices in San Diego stayed flat in January compared with year-ago numbers, while sales saw a 5 percent bump.
Want to know if prices dropped or rose in your neighborhood? Check out "Search your ZIP code: Jan. home prices." (utsandiego.com/ZIP)
Thursday: U-T San Diego's rental column is back. This week's reader question is about painting rentals. Can a tenant do it without landlord permission? (utsandiego.com/paint)
Also Thursday: The average rate on the 30-year fixed mortgage held steady at a record low for a third straight week, offering more incentive to those looking to buy a home or refinance. Mortgage buyer Freddie Mac said the rate on the 30-year home loan was unchanged at 3.87 percent. That's the lowest level since long-term mortgages began in the 1950s.
The average on the 15-year fixed mortgage was also unchanged at 3.16 percent. That's up from a record low of 3.14 percent reached two weeks ago.

By Sonny and Sandy, of the PodCacher Podcast.
June 7th was another record-breaking experience for flash mob participants. Over 27,000 geocachers gathered at 792 events in 52 countries for this annual event.
WWFM hosts are known for their creativity and quirkiness and this year's events did not disappoint. Here are some "WWFM snapshots" from around the globe.
We had an awesome event blowing bubbles around a giant sculpture of an upside down cow. It was freezing here in Pretoria but geocachers are not put off by a bit of cold weather and we had a super turnout of 35 people. It was great to see some new geocachers attending their first ever event and a Flash Mob at that!
Pretoria, South Africa
During the event the geocachers gathered to the main park of our town to take a football club type of photo – with everyone wearing a red shirt and black pants. All participants were asked to gather to the different parts of the park. When the referee whistled, everyone gathered in front of the main building in the park in three rows and took their places as professional football players in front of the building. After the photos were taken, the referee whistled again and everyone disappeared without saying a word.
Mikkeli Finland
26 geocachers decided to copy Monty Python's Ministry of Silly Walks at the busiest zebra crossing in Causeway Bay, HK. There were zombies, gymnasts, supermen and women, backwards walkers and couples with their own silly walk. We had to cross 5 times to earn our smiley.
Hong Kong
Painting it Purple was our theme. Attendees were to dress and accessorize in purple and to bring along a paintbrush with purple ribbon tied to it. When the event began, we started "painting" everything in sight with our paintbrushes. The color purple was chosen because our event was held very near the Relay For Life of Lancaster. After the event, some of the cachers went into the Relay and walked some laps around the track to Celebrate, Remember, and Fight Back against cancer.
Pennsylvania, United States
With pride we would like to report our WWFM XI event, "Applause for Hugo". Hugo, in this case, is a statue of Hugo the Groot on the central square in Delfs. At 19:00 hours, a lot of people walked up to this statue and gave it a standing ovation.
Delft, the Netherlands
58 people (most on Pool Noodle ponies) rode into the Riverfront Carousel and sang Happy Birthday to the Carousel ponies (who were all wearing party hats for their 13th Birthday party). The Operations Manager was surprised and delighted and really, really wants a geocache there now! He said "it gave him goosebumps seeing us".
Salem, Oregon
The 10 largest WWFM XI events were all in Germany, each with over 150 participants. The very biggest was in Dortmund with 450 people. The other countries with events over 100 people were Switzerland, Belgium, Austria, The Netherlands, Portugal, France, and Team PodCacher's San Diego event.
On the other end of the scale, there were actually quite a few with only 2 participants. Events in Poland, Denmark, Portugal, Spain, Indonesia and Greenland.

Posted by Tom Fornelli
Texas Tech was able to walk away with a 45-38 win against Baylor in the Cotton Bowl on Saturday, but not before they took some time out of their busy schedule to teach us all how to not execute an onside kick. To set the scene, it was early in the first quarter when the Red Raiders had just scored on a 10-yard run from Eric Stephens to tie the score at 7-7. I guess since it was so painfully obvious that defense was not going to be played in this game, Tommy Tuberville decided to try an onside kick.
That's when this happened.
Yes, that's right, Raiders hands team. You're on the hands team so you can just stand there and stare at a live ball at your feet and allow Baylor's Terrance Ganoway to pick it up and take it to the house. Brilliant.
The greatest part of all this? The same thing happened to Texas Tech in their game against Iowa State last week when Jeremy Reeves returned an onside kick 42 yards for a touchdown to ice the game late in the fourth quarter.
So maybe Tuberville and the Raiders should stick to kicking deep.

So you think, Linux is Free
We have been using Linux for more then 18 years, without paying a single penny, Thanks to Open Source. There are more than 137000 registered machines, which are using Linux as their Operating System. Linux is the work of thousand of developers working as a Community. But have you ever wondered, what would be the development cost of Linux. Open Source does'nt mean that its Development Cost is zero. Two researchers have estimated the cost of replicating Linux kernel from the scratch at about 1.4 billion USD! Who said Open Source is free?
Jesus Garcia and Isabel Alonso from the University of Oviedo have estimated the development cost that would take approximately 1000 top notch developers around 14 years to replicate the giant Linux kernel. The cost estimation was done using Constructive Cost Model(COCOMO) 81 algorithm and the whole experiment revealed only the estimates and it was not intended for actual use.
But the point is that the sheer amount of development costs, the time span and the developers needed is mind boggling. Does this ever cross your mind when you use Linux?
You can read the complete report here.

All Entries For internet
How to Keep Your Child Safe in Cyberspace
Technology is everywhere. Personal computers and smart phones grant us easy access to games, chatting forums, and countless threads of information that seep into every corner of our lives.
When we think of children's cyber safety, we most often think of monitoring Internet use on computers. And some parents do, though not enough. One study of teen Internet safety reported that 75% of teens said that their parents almost never monitor their use. Additionally, almost one-third of teens surveyed said their parents would disapprove of how they spend their time on the Internet.
Besides computers, other devices need monitoring, too. Kids and teens now chat, share pictures, and watch videos on cell phones and gaming systems. Downloaded games on smart phones and gaming devices often have a chat component within them—and these games can usually be played with random online ''buddies.''
What technology does your child have access to? What technology does your child have that allows others to have access TO your child? Do you trust blindly or monitor closely? Would your child know what to do if he came across inappropriate content or if someone asked her questions through a chat?
Recently, the playroom door in our house was closed. It is never closed, so it caught my attention. I opened it and my 7-year-old son, with his gaming device in hand, looked up with an ''Oh, no, I didn't expect you to walk into the room'' expression. Without thinking, I blurted out, ''Put your hands where I can see them and don't move!'' (Perhaps I need to cut back on TV.) I took his game and found that he was watching a video that was borderline inappropriate for his age—I would deem it ''okay,'' but only with adult explanation of its content. Unbeknownst to me, the system regularly gives the (child) user notifications and access to new games, music videos, and the like.
It became clear that a ''switch'' had turned on in his little brain, and he had to be monitored more closely than I'd realized. Read More ›
'Of Course It's True--I Read It on the Internet!'
A few weeks ago, I was asked to talk to an eighth-grade health class about food and nutrition. During the school day, there were five periods of eighth grade health; each class contained about 25 students. I have worked with this age group before and was well aware of the diverse reactions I would encounter among typical 13 and 14 year olds. I knew that some would be very much interested in the topic, some would be defensive and defiant, others rude, and some just ''too cool'' to comment. But off I went, with my plastic food models, portion plates and sugar test tubes.
However, the reactions I experienced throughout the day were not what I expected. To make my point, here are just a few examples. (Trust me; the full list is much longer.) Read More ›

Bottom Line
Just getting the former Macromedia programs integrated would have been a major achievement, but Adobe has also managed to give each program significant new features and functionality. I strongly recommend the terrific values found in the Creative Suite 3 packages for anyone involved in computer graphics.

"Lovely cottage, good location"
Lovely cottage in a good location a short walk from the nearest beach & Broadstairs. Lovely sea view from the front first floor bedroom. Our 18 month old loved playing in the garden, running around the house and playing with the toys, although we could have relaxed a little more if a stair gate were provided (or if we brought one!). My only comment would be we could have done with a little more information in advance regarding arrival & departure times/procedures as we had to prompt the owner to find out. Usually we don't stay at the same place twice, but for Sandy Bay Cottage, we may make an exception!
Thanks, will we see you again?

Transgender Lifestyles and Parenting
Chaz Bono on ABC's Dancing with the Stars sparks controversy and discussion among many American families.
Maybe you will watch this week's Dancing with the Stars premiere and maybe you won't; but no matter how you feel about Chaz Bono or DWTS, we hope that you will take this opportunity to talk with your children about bullying, and especially about cyberbullying. Cyberbullying comes with it's own set of precautions, and as more and more teens join social networks and communicate via cell phone, it is imperative that you and your family understand the rules of the game when it comes to digital communication.
Cyberbullying: Three Steps to Get You Started
1. EDUCATE. Cyberbullying is "a communication or posting by one or more people using cybertechnology or digital media designed to hurt, threaten, embarrass, annoy, blackmail or otherwise target another person." It is important that both you and your child know what cyberbullying looks like, that way you know the warning signs when you see them. Familiarize yourself with the types of social networks your child uses and the privacy controls for each one. It is always a good idea to "friend" and "follow" your child on Facebook and Twitter. In addition, social media monitoring services, such as FamilySignal offer easy, non-intrusive ways to keep an eye on your child's online behavior. Below is a bank of resources to help, including a link to state cyberbullying laws, education materials, and parent forums.
2. COMMUNICATE. One of the more important steps to dealing with a bullying situation, online or off, is establishing an open line of communication between you and your child. Talk with your kids regularly and make sure they know what to do if they or someone they know becomes a victim of cyberbullying.
3. STAY TUNED. Cyberbullying is a hot topic, and new research and resources are published every day. Keep your eye out for the latest alerts on social network privacy controls and online safety. See the links below for a few sources to help you stay informed.
