"What we do to children they will do to society…"
Karl Menninger
Dear Family Members,
Your child's class is beginning a discussion about prevention of bullying and interpersonal violence. In the next few weeks, they will be discussing:
- Identifying bullying behaviors of all kinds
- Effective ways to avoid or stop bullies
- How to speak up – Take A Stand – against bullying
- How to be an advocate for those who are being bullied
- How to accept coaching and be a coach for others
- How to communicate effectively
- How to ask for help when you need it
Please take some time to read this handbook. It will make it easier for your family to use some of the ideas being introduced at school.
Talk about these ideas at home. Most families find that the ideas presented in the program are helpful to everyone. After all, we would all welcome less conflict and tension in our lives.
Sherryll Kraizer, Ph.D.
Bullying, intimidation and interpersonal conflict is something all children encounter in one form or another. Children struggle with being called names, being picked upon, being excluded, not knowing how to make friends, or being the ones acting unkindly or aggressively toward others. All forms of bullying are abusive and all are opportunities to teach children how to get along, how to be considerate people, how to be part of a community or group.
Bullying can take many forms: physical, emotional, verbal or a combination of these. It may involve one child bullying another, a group of children against a single child or groups against other groups (gangs). It is not unlike other forms of victimization and abuse in that it involves:
- An imbalance of power
- Differing emotional tones, the victim will be upset whereas the bully is cool and in control
- Blaming the victim for what has happened
- Lack of concern on the part of the bully for the feelings and concerns of the victim
- A lack of compassion
- A cycle that will continue and often escalate without intervention
Bullies are very often children who have been bullied or abused themselves. Sometimes they are children experiencing life situations they can't cope with, that leave them feeling helpless and out of control. They may be children with poor social skills, who do not fit in, who can't meet the expectations of their family or school. They bully to feel competent, successful, to control someone else, to get some relief from their own feelings of powerlessness.
Not all children are equally likely to be victimized by bullying behavior. Those children who are more prone to be picked upon tend to have the following characteristics:
- Low self-esteem
- Insecure
- Lack of social skills, don't pick up on social cues
- Cry or become emotionally distraught easily
- Unable to defend or stand up for themselves
- Physical characteristics which make them appear different
- May not have a support group of family or friends
Some children actually seem to provoke their own victimization. These children will tease bullies, making themselves a target by egging the person on, not knowing when to stop and then not being able to effectively defend him or herself when the balance of power shifts to the bully.
Children who are not bullied tend to have better social skills and conflict management skills. They are more willing to assert themselves about differences without being aggressive or confronting. They suggest compromises and alternate solutions. They tend to be more aware of people's feelings and are the children who can be most helpful in resolving disputes and assisting other children to get help.
If you learn your child is being bullied, you may immediately want to protect your child and confront the aggressor. You may feel embarrassed and want your child to toughen up, to get in there and fight back. You may feel helpless yourself. None of these responses are helpful.
Get as much information as you can about what has happened. Avoid blaming anyone, including the bullying child or children. Look at your own child's behavior and style of interacting. Ask yourself what you know about your child and how you can turn the immediate situation around.
If you are going to get in touch with the parents of a bullying child, remember that they will probably feel defensive. Keep in mind that your goal is to have a safe and nurturing environment for all of the children, not to escalate an already difficult situation.
For your own children, there are several suggestions:
- Discuss alternatives to responding to bullies.
- Don't react, walk away, get help if pursued
- Agree with the bully, saying, "You're right."
- Walking away
- Be assertive.
Children learn by doing. Role-play is what makes prevention of bullying and interpersonal conflict real for children. Role-playing takes concepts and turns them into skills. Actually walking through situations and having your children practice different responses is what takes the ideas presented here from the level of a concept – or an idea – to a skill that is learned in the "muscles" and will never be forgotten.
It is like the difference between understanding how to ride a bicycle and actually being able to ride a bicycle. Role-play, mixed with discussion and other activities, enables your children to learn the skills in their muscles. This is what allows them to act on behalf of themselves or others in real life situations.
The process of teaching role-playing is one of discussion first and then actually walking through a scenario, applying the concepts to real situations and learning how to implement the concepts with skill. This is usually a process of successive approximations based on your coaching your child, helping them as they go, to get better and better at standing up for themselves and others.
What every parent doesn't want to hear – your child is behaving like a bully. Your first response will probably be defensive. Disarm the situation and buy yourself some time to process what's being said. For example, say "Instead of labeling my child, please tell me what happened." Make yourself really listen, Remember that this discussion is ultimately about the well being of your child, regardless of how it's being presented.
Even if your child is behaving aggressively or acting like a bully, remember that this behavior is probably coming from your child's feelings of vulnerability. You need to look for what is going on in your child's interaction with others, what is causing your child to behave that way.
In talking with your child, DO NOT BLAME. Do not get into a discussion about the "whys" of what happened. Your discussion should focus on several key points:
- Bullying is not acceptable in our family or in society.
- If you are feeling frustrated or angry or aggressive, here are some things you can do.
- Remember to role-play, act out the new behaviors.
- Ask, how can I help you with this? Who could you go to in school if you see yourself getting into this type of situation again?
- Specify concretely the consequences if the aggression or bullying continue.
- Be ready to listen when your child wants to talk about it.
- You want to stop the behavior, understand your child's feelings, then teach and reward more appropriate behavior.
As soon as children begin to interact with others, we should teach them not to be bullies and not to be bullied. We need to show them that intimidation, interpersonal conflict and violence are not part of what we value. We can help provide words for their feelings, intervene to limit and change their behavior and teach them appropriate ways to express their feelings and wishes. Children do not learn to solve these kinds of problems and get along by themselves. We need to teach them.
When preschoolers begin to call people names or use unkind words, intervene immediately and consistently. In kindergarten children learn the power of exclusion. Respond to, "She's not my friend and she can't come to my party." with, "You don't have to be friends with her today, but it's not all right to make her feel bad."
In the early elementary grades, cliques and little groups develop which can be quite exclusionary and cruel. Children need to hear clearly from us, "It's not all right to treat other people this way. How do you think she feels being told she can't play with you? Kids don't have to play with everyone or even like everyone, but they can't be cruel about excluding others."
Making fun, picking on and other forms of bullying need to be identified in their earliest stages. The message needs to be crystal clear: "This is not okay. Think about how he must feel. How could you her and let other kids know it's not all right to treat her this way?"
Children who are not bullies or victims have a powerful role to play in shaping the behavior of other children. Teach your children to speak up on behalf of other children being bullied.
The No More Secrets Rule – taught in the younger grades of the Program – is one of the most important things you can teach your children because intimidation and secrecy keep young children from telling about bullying and other abusive behavior, particularly at the hands of older children or adults. This rule is an important part of protecting younger children and we encourage you to adopt this rule at home.
The No More Secrets Rule is an agreement you make with your family that you won't keep secrets anymore (not even in the family) and if asked to keep a secret, your children will say "No, we don't keep secrets in our family and I'm going to tell." Younger children can simply say, "No, I'm going to tell."
Surprises are okay. Surprises are things that make people happy that get told sooner or later, whereas secrets are never told. Children quickly learn the difference, and by age four can respond to a request for secrecy about a birthday gift with "That's not a secret, it's a surprise."
Young children often confuse secrecy with whispering. Explain to them that telling something you only want one person to hear is different from keeping a secret. A secret is when they promise not to tell anyone else.
By age five or six, children can learn that there are many ways to be asked to keep a secret. They enjoy making a game of trying to trick Mom and Dad into keeping a secret without using the word secret. For example, what if someone says any of the following: "This is just between you and me." "Do you promise not to tell anyone else?" "You don't need to tell your mom and dad, I'll tell them later." "We won't tell them about our little game?" Your children should respond to all of these requests by saying, "No, I don't keep secrets and I'm going to tell."
By age seven or eight, secrecy is such an integral part of children's lives with their friends that they are reluctant to give it up. This includes friendship clubs, secret bonds, oaths, pacts, etc. Essentially, we're allowing secrecy with peers and discouraging it with anyone older.
If a request for secrecy, whether or not the word secret is actually used, seems confusing or odd or compromising, one option open to older children is to say "I really don't like keeping secrets and I don't want to start now," or "I don't like this idea, let's do something else," or "I'd like to go home now."
Privacy is not the same as secrecy. Privacy means you can be by yourself or keep something to yourself. Secrecy means you're bound not to tell. Privacy respects individual needs. Secrecy creates shame and keeps children from getting help when they need it. It's important that children know the difference.
Parents want to believe that their children will come to them if they have a problem and that is usually what they do. But there are three situations parents should prepare for. One is that children sometimes aren't very effective communicators and we don't hear what they are trying to say. The second is that we aren't always very good listeners and we don't understand what they had to say. Finally, sometimes children need to know what resources they have for help in the extended family or outside the extended family.
The Take A Stand Program helps prepare children to be better communicators, and to ask for help when they need it. You can support that effort by asking your children, "If you had a really hard problem that you wanted to tell me about, how would you get my attention?" "How would you know I heard and understood your problem?" "What would you do if, for some reason, I couldn't help you with the problem or didn't understand?"
Help your children develop a contact list of people they can talk to. Make sure they know how to reach those people. The reality for all of us that sometimes, our kids want to talk to someone else about a problem. The more your children know about accessing help – from you and others — the more we can assure their safety and well-being as they grow up.

New plan to see banks suffer 50pc losses on Greek government loans
BANKS could suffer losses of 50pc on their loans to the Greek government, under plans being discussed in Brussels.
Eurozone countries will ask banks to accept losses of up to 50pc on their holdings of Greek debt, officials said yesterday. It's part of a master plan to avert a disorderly default and try to end a crisis that threatens the world economy.
European leaders will hold a make-or-break summit on October 23 where a comprehensive new Franco-German crisis plan is expected to be discussed.
Four eurozone officials told Reuters that a "haircut" or loss of between 30pc and 50pc for Greece's private creditors is under consideration.
Greece has already signed off on a deal with its lenders that will see banks suffer a 21pc loss when they swap the government bonds they currently own for new bonds due to be paid back in 30 years.
The deal already announced was signed off by European leaders and representatives of the bank sector before an EU summit on July 21.
Since then, the Greek economy has sunk deeper into recession, fanning fears of an outright default and forcing eurozone leaders to consider more radical action to stem the crisis.
To restore confidence in the banking system, officials are also working on plans to shore up the balance sheets of banks through recapitalisations.
Greece's debt mountain is forecast to climb to €357bn this year, or 162pc of its annual economic output.
The crisis has rumbled on for almost two years but eurozone governments have failed so far to come up with a convincing plan for how to cope with it.
"We are negotiating in every way to lighten this debt," Greek Prime Minister George Papandreou told a cabinet meeting yesterday.
A eurozone official told reporters that the final level for private sector participation had not been set and it was unclear as yet how banks would react to the new demands.
"A voluntary participation is the target, for now at least, and many feel strongly that we must avoid any risk of a full default," the official said, requesting anonymity.
The European Central Bank is against forcing losses on banks that previously loaned money to the Greek government. It is concerned that the realisation of those losses will undermine, possibly fatally, the health of at least some European banks, with unknown consequences for the economy. (Reuters)

Title: Ambulatory Care Quality Alliance Pilot Project
Partner: RTI International
ACTION Contact: Amy Roussel, email@example.com
Description: The Ambulatory Care Quality Alliance (AQA), a broad-based national coalition of more than 125 member organizations representing physicians, consumers, employers, government, health insurance plans, and accrediting and quality improvement organizations, had the following objectives at the time this task order was launched: (1) to improve health care quality through a process in which key stakeholders agree on a strategy for measuring performance at the physician level; (2) to collect and aggregate data in the least burdensome way; and (3) to report meaningful information to consumers, physicians, and other stakeholders in order to inform choice and improve outcomes. RTI developed a quantitative analysis plan for the AQA Pilot Project, which the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality and the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services were cosponsoring at six sites throughout the United States. The plan was developed to permit robust and maximally generalizable quantitative results and to accomplish efficient pooling of data across the sites.

Funding: $188,015
Deliverables: Quantitative analysis plan for internal use by the AQA Pilot Project.
Health Care Organization and Design
Title: Redesigning Delivery Processes for Efficiency and Value-Implementing, Assessing, and Spreading Redesign Methods and Techniques
Partner: RAND Corporation
ACTION Contact: Allen Fremont, firstname.lastname@example.com
Description: This project implemented and tested interventions that had proven themselves useful in pilot sites in the United Kingdom's National Health Service (NHS). The interventions involved demand components (e.g., smoothing demand, buffering interruptions) and supply components (e.g., changing staff hours or assignments, changing day work routines) for improving quality and efficiency of night work in hospitals. The impact of the demand strategies was assessed separately from an intervention that used both supply and demand strategies, as did the NHS project. This project used a collaborative improvement framework that RAND's partner, the University Healthcare Consortium, had successfully applied to several projects over a 3-year period. RAND monitored clinical outcomes carefully. Qualitative data were used to provide feedback to improve implementation, as well as in evaluation of what worked well and why.
Period: 09/06-07/09
Funding: $399,639
Deliverables: Final report, including "Supply Recommendation" Packet, toolkit, data collection forms, interview guides, and cost data collection worksheet.

Title: Assessing Physician Incentives for Pay for Performance
Partner: University of California at San Francisco
ACTION Contact: Claire Brindis, email@example.com
Description: This project assessed a performance intervention that focused on the frequency of information feedback and size of incentive payment to health care providers at three sites. A randomized controlled trial feature, which was implemented at one site, was limited to the frequency of bonus allocation, with one group receiving an annual payment as a one-time bonus after the fact while a second group received a quarterly payment. Comparison of the effect of physician-level incentives was made across three sites in an observational study, assessing the impact of using incentive payments at the departmental level versus incentive payments across all physicians. Results indicate that physician-specific incentives, developed with input from the participating physician, appear associated with modest acceleration in improvement in some targeted measures, but not others. The frequency of payment itself, with no difference in the maximum bonus amount or in the frequency of reporting performance score, made no difference in performance in response to the pay-for-performance program. In the context of other ongoing organizational-level quality improvement efforts, the relatively small financial individual physician incentives we observed had limited incremental effects on well-established ambulatory care measures.
Period: 09/06-10/08

Emergency Preparedness
Title: Emergency Preparedness Resource Inventory and Surge Model Enhancements
Partner: Abt Associates
ACTION Contact: Terry Moore, firstname.lastname@example.com
Description:The purpose of this project, funded by the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), was to revise two recently developed AHRQ tools—the Emergency Preparedness Resource Inventory (EPRI) tool and the Surge Model—into alignment with the U.S. Department of Homeland Security's Universal Task List and to enhance Abt's previously developed Surge Model by adding a pandemic influenza scenario. The EPRI tool continues to be enhanced and this project has been extended to 2011. The tool allows local or regional planners to assemble an inventory of critical resources that would be useful in responding to a terrorist attack or natural disaster. It is Web based so that all selected organizations in an area can enter information about their resources. The Surge Model estimates the medical resources needed to treat casualties arising from biological, chemical, nuclear, and radiological attacks. Resources include hospital staff, medical equipment, and medical supplies.

Title: HAvBED2 Delivery of a Sustainable Bed Availability Reporting System
Partner: Denver Health
ACTION Contact: Susan Moore, email@example.com
Description: This HRSA-funded project refined the real-time hospital bed tracking system, "National Hospital Available Beds for Emergencies and Disasters (HAvBED) System," which was developed by Denver Health under a previous task order. This tracking/monitoring system serves as a potential management tool to assist in a State or region's ability to distribute and care for a surge of patients in the event of a large-scale mass casualty incident. This task order focuses on developing a maintainable working production system that will be deployed to communities that do not have a hospital bed tracking system. The system can be used for planning and response by the Department of Health and Human Services Office of the Assistant Secretary for Public Health Emergency Preparedness and other Federal, regional, State, or local command centers. A users' guide for hospitals or other users and a systems operations guide for administering the HAvBED2 system were developed.

The majority of my cooking "ability" comes from randomly throwing whatever I have into a skillet and putting it on high. Lately I've stopped burning stuff and my meals have become much more palatable. Sometimes I get inspired by what I'm craving and make a valiant attempt at re-creating it. A couple weeks ago, on cheat day, I was craving rice like crazy.
Now, since then I've become a little more lenient on how much and what type of carbs I eat. After years of eating ultra low-carb a la The Anabolic Diet, I've decided to add more carbs in during the week. Going ultra low carb in addition to Intermittent Fasting had me feeling incredibly tired the day after an intense workout. At the time I didn't really care because it gave me a reason to drink more coffee (score!), but soon enough I had seen enough evidence to make me realize I needed to add some more natural carbs into my diet. So now I'll toss in some potatoes or rice into the meal post-workout, and if it was a particularly brutal workout I might even have a tad but more for dinner.
Anywho, it was cheat day and I was craving mass amounts of rice like they make at hibachi restaurants. Nice and crispy from being cooked on high heat, and co-mingled with the incredible edible egg. Here's my attempt…
Gather the Ingredients
First off, sorry for the lack of stellar photography. By the time I realized I should probably document the process I was more than half way through. But it's super easy, so no worries. Here's what you're going to need:
- Chicken
- Eggs
- Rice
- Spices
Measuring is for fools, so I just threw a bunch of random amounts into this. If you want to make enough for the whole week, grab a value pack of chicken. If you only want enough for the day, then grab the regular one pound-ish pack. You should already have mass amounts of eggs in your fridge in addition to a variety of spices in your pantry. For rice I just bought some of the boil-in-a-bag stuff and used one bag for each serving.
Onward to the cooking and such…
Pre-cook your chicken. It makes it so much easier. If you dont this entire meal turns into a fairly long ordeal. Since I'm lazy and am convinced my time can't be wasted over a pan cooking chicken for any amount of time, I choose to bake it. Put the oven on 350 and bake it for 30-35 minutes. It'll come out perfectly cooked and juicy. Marinate it before hand if you want to add extra awesomeness.
When it's done, slice it up into 1/4 inch – 1/2 inch strips. Mine ended up around 1/2 inch because I was rushing through it, but I suggest going thinner if you can. While your chopping up your chicken you can start the rice. Just follow the instructions on the container of whatever type of rice you get.
Throwing it all together
Now we get pictures…yay!
Pre-heat a skillet and put a bit of whatever fat you like cooking with in it. I use ghee, so once it was melted I put the chicken in the pan in a single layer. I like crispiness, so I left the chicken like this for a while to make the one side a bit crispy. On top I added chili powder, crushed cayenne pepper and smoked paprika.
Next, I added the rice. Also leaving it to cook for a while longer than usual in hope of making it crispy.
Once I felt it was cooked enough,I pushed all of the rice and chicken to the side. I didn't do it the first time, but every time after I pushed them as far to the sides as I could. This gives the eggs more surface space and they are able to cook a bit faster. In the open space I just created, I threw in a but more ghee and then cracked some eggs right in the middle.
Push the chicken and rice farther to the sides to let the eggs cook faster
Once I felt the eggs were cooked about 75% through, I mixed the entire thing up and put the burner back on high to finish it off.
Now plate it, open a beer and enjoy!
Like it, share it, spread it around with your friends. Then drop a comment below with your favorite cheat day recipe, healthy or not!Featured Image Courtesy of: 4BlueEyes Pete Williamson

The national swimming team launched its final preparation for the Budapest World Championships on July 4 at the Olympic swimming pool of the Moulay Rachid National Sports Institute in Maamora. The three swimmers found themselves for two weeks to follow the preparation program concocted by Karim Lousteque. The latter assured the "Matin" that "the swimmers were well prepared in the beautiful setting of the Sports Institute Moulay Rachid". The work concerned the development of speed, but also a psychological preparation to put the swimmers in the best dispositions before attacking the world.
The swimmers did not hide their satisfaction with this course. Driss Lahrichi, who will be aligned on the 50 and 100 backstroke, displays his ambition for these World Championships and assures him to continue to progress. "Between last year and this year, I improved my time in 100m backstroke by a second and a half, which is great. If I continue with this margin, I hope by 2020 to make a semi-final or a final at the Olympics in Tokyo in 2020, "he said. Regarding his participation in the world championships, Lahrichi said he was ready for the big event: "Yes, I'm ready for these championships. We are at the end of the season. These championships are just a bonus. We will try to achieve our best times, "he said. Hiba Hafsi, African champion in the 50 backstroke, is the only Moroccan swimmer to make the trip to Budapest. Very sharp just a few days to enter the scene, the swimmer of Olympique de Khouribga hopes to improve her times on the 50 and 100 backstroke. "I am aiming to improve my times," she told us. The third swimmer to defend the colors of Morocco is Souhaïl Hamouchane, specialist in the 50 m freestyle and the 100 m crawl. The swimmer of the ASPTT Toulouse is satisfied with his preparation: "We are ready. We worked well. We did weight training and series. We will start sharpening to prepare well physically and morally. Concerning his goals, Hamouchane ensures that he goes to Budapest to improve his times and, why not, to qualify at the Olympics in Tokyo.

I'm kind of having a moment right now. I desire neutral colored suede flats... and literally just as the thought is growing in my mind I stumble upon The Perfect Shoe at Totokaelo.com . It's sort of sad that Rock and Republic obviously made these with me in mind, and yet failed to consider my finances when setting the price point! Someone PLEASE rip off this design pronto so I can afford them!!
These embellished flats are cute too! I like the idea of a little peplum sort of accent on a shoe. These are by Joy Chen and available on sale at Endless.com and Amazon.com

500 mm F5.6 L...why no such lens ??
Feb 21, 2012
there is an obvious "gap" in the 500 mm prime area
i have always wondered why no one makes an affordable
500 mm F5.6 L type quality lens ??
I would have thought sigma would have ??
I'm talking about a high quality lens not the tamron 200-500 or 50-500 sigma style
I'm sure there's a market for it...i would buy an affordable one
Its obvious the new 200 -400 F4 L with built in teleconverter is not going to be afforable to most of us much as i'd like one !
can anyone tell me why no 500mm f5.6 L type lens around
PS before anyone says there a canon 400 F5.6L i know i've just sold mine
after 6 years..a great lens BUT not long enough !! (that why i want a 500 F5.6 L like it)

Health supplement enters new market
NZX-listed Promisia Integrative's chief executive Charles Daily is relocating to the US in an effort to break into its lucrative health supplement market.
Wellington-based Daily will move to Washington DC for 10 months next month to target the market in the mid-Atlantic states which have a combined population of just over 30 million.
Promisia (formerly Savoy Equities) launched its first product Arthrem, a plant-based extract marketed as a dietary supplement for joint health, on the New Zealand market a couple of years ago when it generated annual turnover of about $20,000. Turnover is now about $20,000 a month.
Daily, a US citizen originally from the Washington DC area, said just over 12 per cent of Americans suffered from joint problems. That equates to more than 3.6m people in the targeted mid-Atlantic region.
"We want to go to America to get a fraction of the potential . . ."
He will work out of the Washington DC offices of law firm Foley Lardner which has a division specialising in Federal Drug Administration regulatory requirements. Their expertise would be utilised to help with the importation of the product.
Daily, who came to New Zealand in 1997, said he was "bullish" in believing the plant extract from the herb Artemisia also had anti-viral properties which could be turned into a topical application.
"Once we go topical it can either be cosmetic or a medicine. That is a grey area and that is where I'll need assistance from the law firm as well."
Daily said a big issue facing the dietary supplement industry was a lack of scientific evidence that products worked as manufacturers claimed. He admits that is the case with Arthrem, but maybe not for much longer.
"We have provisional approval for a double-blind placebo-controlled trial that will be run out of Otago University. The business I am trying to build is to take . . . natural products and implement a robust scientific approach so that we have valid, robust scientific information."
Daily said strong scientific evidence would give users confidence in the product and may well allow it to be prescribed or recommended by doctors. He said another important component of the trial is that the research would be unique to Promisia's product and they would therefore own the intellectual property rights.
