This page is part of a range of support being offered to schools and governing bodies in the Caerphilly county borough.
It covers a number of publications from local, regional and national bodies on Equalities and Community Cohesion issues, in order to help schools in preparing and delivering equalities objectives and actions within their own school environment to improve the educational experience of children and young people, regardless of their identity, circumstances and background.
All documents are publically available to share and no copyright infringement is intended. They have been brought together into one place on this website in order that our schools and governing bodies have a central resource easily available to them. The information was previously circulated on CD to all schools in the county borough.
This document is intended to show schools and governing bodies an example of what their own policy could look like. It contains a lot of detail that school may wish to edit or add in local context and is only intended as a guide.
Schools may for example choose to merge and copy parts of other schemes, such as their current race or disability schemes, which this plan will replace as a comprehensive equality plan and set of objectives.
Model Schools Strategic Equality Plan (PDF 75kb)
This guide was produced jointly by Governors Wales and the Equality and Human Rights Commission (Wales).
Schools have obligations under the Equality Act 2010 as employers, bodies that carry out public functions and as service providers. For Foundation, Voluntary Aided schools, the governing body is the employer whilst in community and Voluntary Controlled schools, the LA is the employer but the governing body is responsible for staffing matters, etc.
Governors Wales Equalities Fact File (PDF 146kb)
Learning has the potential to be a very powerful tool in promoting integration and mutual respect. This presents invaluable opportunities for positive cohesion messages to be promoted through learning experiences across all age groups and backgrounds.
The 'Respect and Resilience' document was produced to provide guidance and advice to schools on how they can further develop this highly important area of policy in line with the School Effectiveness Framework. It is clear that schools which are community focused, and the teachers and staff who work with young people, have a crucial role to play in ensuring that they have a safe and supportive environment in which to question things, but also to understand and foster tolerance and respect for others.

Worthington's Academy for the Supernatural
OOC: http://roleplayerguild.com/showthrea...rnatural-(OOC)
In the deepest reaches of Europe, there lays a school.. This school is hidden from the general populace by an array of magical barriers and invisibility spells. The reasons this school is hidden away is due to its true nature. This school... Is Worthington's Academy for the Supernatural. The purpose of the academy is to train young monsters, entities and mythological creatures about the human world and how to survive inside of it, as well as how to blend in with human society and live peacefully amongst them. However, not all of the students are fond of humans, and three of these students are not fond of monsters.. Those three students are Hunters. They were born into a family who is known for destroying the beasts and creatures of this world.. The Helsings.
But even with these hidden humans attending the academy, things are as normal as they should be... Except for the dark shadow that currently hovers over the academy. Something dark is happening inside of those hallowed halls... Something even more powerful and malicious then anybody could have imagined. And it begins... With a horn, and the ringing of a bell.. Time for school, kiddies.
Marcus observed the letter again with a dark smile. Idiots... Is it really that hard to tell I am not one of you? Surely you would've heard the name before in the horror stories you tell your children before bed. Poor, foolish beasts.. he thought to himself as the black carriage continued on its ever quickening pace. The skeletal horse-buggy and its undead driver had shown up at the old manor he lived in a day ago, and the journey from New York all the way to Northern England was nearly over. Others had been picked up inside of the large transportation (thanks to black magic, the carriage was as large as an 8 car train on the inside). Some of them he recognized, such as his second cousin, Henry, who he was not previously informed was involved in the mission, and a Harpy girl known as Wren. He had a bit of a history with this girl, but nothing short of a few encounters and battles, which usually ended in somebody crying or the one time when he wound up playing "Doctor". He felt somewhat uncomfortable and shocked that she was even here. Then again, it WAS a school for monsters, so it made sense. With the rest of the crowd, he merely nodded and remained emotionless."Mr. Robertson, We are pleased to announce that your registration to "Worthington's Academy for the Supernatural" has been accepted. Your knowledge of the inner workings of a Bug Bladdered Boar Beast is simply astounding!! Its almost like you dissected one of them yourself. Please report for classes on September 2nd, 2013 and have your luggage ready. A Doom-Buggy will be there to pick you up.
~ Gerald McDevin, Principal
Dressed in his hunting clothes, he would have made even Henry feel slightly uncomfortable. There he was, this pale and menacing brown haired boy dressed like something from a Hollywood film about ancient monster hunters, sitting silently with a totally emotionless expression... Even Marcus tried to not dwell on how he may have looked. When others asked what sort of monster he was, he responded with one of two things:
1. "School rules dictate we're not allowed to reveal that to each other. Sorry, but I don't want to get kicked out of the academy before I've even seen the campus."
Although the second option was always his favourite:
2. "Fuck off"
He was right though: School rules dictated that you weren't allowed to reveal your monster forms except authorized to. In Gym class, everybody would have revealed themselves and even walking in the halls or in the carriage, Marcus would have been able to detect the obvious. This was greatly advanced by the training he received while at the Helsing Academy. Vampire, Harpy, Pychopomp, two types of Shapeshifter, Some sort of Demon Weapon, an Earth Elemental, and a Dryad.. Pretty standard crowd, but I'm surprised there isn't any kind of Witch or Wizard.. Normally those guys are all over this sort of thing. he thought before the carriage hit a bump and his hat was crushed on the roof of the room. He groaned and straightened it out before he crossed his arms and leaned back in his chair, not speaking to anybody. It wouldn't be long now.. They'd be arriving soon.

In our camping area we have a hot tub to use and we keep pet chickens, Harry the goat and Larry the ram (who sounds like an American wrestler but is in fact a gentle, rescued sheep).
We are 10 minutes' drive from the nearest beach or half an hour if you cycle. You can rent or buy a bike nearby, we are friends with all the local surf schools and, if you want to go coasteering, then the people we recommend are award-winning.

Recipe from Good Food magazine, March 2006
Comments, questions and tips
I made this last night as my kiddies were poorly and we all needed comfort food. I changed I
The recipe slightly after reading other reviews, I used 500ml of carnation milk to replace the same amount of semi skimmed, the results were yummy, creamy and sweet. I now have to cook 2 for my family members.
It may be because I have fan oven but it took 3 hours for me to get to the right consistency and when tested, the rice still seemed grainy. I've left it overnight and hoping it has softened. But I liked the ease of this recipe - I might need to experiment with different heat settings.
I did use 1% milk though to make it even lower fat...
Absolutely delicious. I gave this recipe 4 stars because I altered it to suit my family: doubled all ingredients, used full fat milk, 1 tbsp vanilla extract and another of cinnamon. I heated the milk to just before boiling before adding the ingredients, to make it more creamy. I also checked it after 1 hour and then again at 15 mins to go, and added a splash of milk before stirring. This rice pudding is thick, smooth, creamy and sweet, but not sickly at all. Dished some out for my 4 yr old and I, then blitzed the rest for my 7 month old - enjoyed by all! Kept in fridge for days. Won't buy cans ever again.

Saudi Arabia's crackdown on protests in Qatif leaves two dead, South Sudan's first anniversary of independence marred by growing tension, Libya's former transitional council chief leads early election results, and more.

Saudi Arabia's crackdown on protests in Qatif leaves two dead [BBC Arabic, UK]
Presenter, Female #1
Rights activists say that two Saudi Shiites were killed after police opened fire at them in Qatif, in the eastern province of the country that is inhabited by a Shiite majority. The clashes occurred after authorities arrested prominent Shiite religious scholar Nimr al-Nimr for inciting strife.
Reporter, Female #1
This is how nighttime demonstrations in the eastern part of Saudi Arabia, in Qatif, started, with chants condemning the authority's practices. But it ended differently. Activists say that Saudi police opened fire at protestors and killed two of them and wounded others.
Guest Male #1 (Sheikh Nimr al-Nimr)
Injustice is hated.
Reporter, Female #2
Protests were sparked when this man was arrested: Shiite religious scholar Nimr al-Nimr, the Imam of al-Awamiyah Town in Qatif. He is accused by Saudi authorities of inciting protests, but his supporters say he is only calling for freedom and justice. Authorities arrested him on Saturday after he sustained a gunshot wound at the hand of security forces. Saudi Arabia says it opened fire after the imam and his companion resisted the security forces, and opened fire first. But a source close to al-Nimr said that authorities ambushed him.
Guest, Male #2 (Mohamed al-Nimr, Sheikh Nimr al-Nimr's Brother)
There was no resistance; first of all, the Sheikh was alone in his car, and there was no one with him for there to be resistance. Second of all, of course he did not have any weapons on him, and he didn't have anything that resembled a weapon. What happened was security forces stormed his car and opened fire in the air, and they claim that it was in the air, but when we went to the crime scene, we saw blood.
Reporter, Female #2
Shiites accuse the Saudi authorities of marginalizing them, and they have a difficult time getting government jobs. Their areas are neglected, and their houses of worship are frequently shut down. But Saudi Arabia denies their claims, and accuses them of implementing foreign agendas and vowing to renew terrorism in Qatif, while they insist they are merely demanding their legitimate rights. Ola Makky, BBC.
South Sudan's first anniversary of independence marred by growing tension [Dubai TV, UAE]
Presenter, Male #1
South Sudan celebrates today its first anniversary of independence from Sudan. However, the celebrations were not complete in this newly-born country, amid its strained relationship with al-Khartoum due to border conflicts. In addition, South Sudan is continuing to suffer from an abrupt halt of its oil production, which accounts for nearly 98 percent of its revenue. South Sudan, one of the most impoverished countries in the world, continues to lack a basic infrastructure, such as roads, electricity, and water distribution networks. Seventy-three percent of the adult population is illiterate.
Presenter, Male #1
The celebrations in the South are being overshadowed by the strained relationship with al-Khartoum, especially after talks hit a deadlock in Addis Ababa. Meanwhile, the head of the African Union High Level Implementation Panel on Sudan, Thabo Mbeki, arrived in al-Khartoum and held talks with President al-Bashir in a bid to bridge the gap between Sudan and South Sudan. Our correspondent Sami al-Shinawi reports from al-Khartoum.
Reporter, Male #2
The new round of talks aimed at bridging the gap between al-Khartoum and Juba have failed so far have to resolve the stalled issues between the two sides. This prompted the head of the African Union High Level Implementation Panel on Sudan, Thabo Mbeki, to visit al-Khartoum in a bid to launch a new round of talks. Al-Khartoum's delegation said the positive atmosphere that surrounded the talks is a clear indication of a possible breakthrough.
Guest, Male #3 (Abdelrahim Mohamed Hussein, Sudanese Defense Minister)
We have agreed on the general principles. This will help us move forward on a strategic path to resolve our issues. We will hold another meeting on July 11, God willing.
Reporter, Male #2
Both sides continue to cling firmly to their positions. While Juba continues to demand the implementation of Mbeki's roadmap, al-Khartoum believes that such a plan further complicates the issues. Observers believe the case could be referred to international arbitration.
Guest, Male #4 (Buhram Abed al-Munaem, Journalist and Writer)
The previous rounds of talks didn't produce any results. The talks may head to international arbitration. The UN Security Council's deadline on August 2nd will expire as the two sides are still in disagreement.
Reporter, Male #2
The long-term negotiations between Juba and al-Khartoum have further fueled the economic crisis, especially amid austerity measures in the north. In addition, the UN has warned of a looming hunger crisis in South Sudan. The deteriorating situation comes amid the closure of oil pipelines between the two sides. The transfer of stalled issues between the two sides is a southern demand opposed by the north. However, this is not the first time that both sides appear before an international arbitration panel, and in both cases, judgment is still pending. Sami al-Shinawi, Dubai TV, al-Khartoum.
Libya's former transitional council chief leads early election results [Al-Alam, Iran]
Presenter, Male #1
In Libya, the vote count for the General National Congress elections is underway. According to exit results, the National Forces Alliance, headed by Mahmoud Jibril, is in the lead. Meanwhile, the High Elections Commission said voter turnout exceeded 60 percent. The head of the Commission, Nuri al-Abbar, said the preliminary results will be announced today.
Reporter, Male #2
Debates are dominating Libyan circles, following the major lead of the National Forces Alliance, headed by Mahmoud Jibril, as confirmed by the exit results, prompting some to fear that a single-party rule may dominate the democratic process.
Guest, Male #3 (Rashid Mayhub, High Elections Commission Member)
There's no way that a single party will win an absolute majority. Why? The General National Congress consists of 200 members, including 120 independents and 80 representatives of the various political parties. No single party can win more than 80 seats reserved for the political parties. There are still 120 seats to be filled.
Reporter, Male #2
Knowledgeable sources on political conflicts believe the makeup of the next government hinges on the formation of coalitions, notably the coalition between Jibril and the conservative Islamic forces.
Guest, Male #4 (Hussam al-Abdullah, February 17 Movement Coordinator)
The parties will have no choice but to form coalitions. Why? The parties will look for stronger platforms in order to seek larger representation. So a group of parties may form a coalition in order to strengthen their position.
Reporter, Male #2
These scenarios may not have taken into account the heavy weight of the independent candidates, who account for 120 seats at the General National Congress, making them an influential factor on the political front.
Guest, Male #5 (Reda Haylul, Editor-in-Chief, Tripoli Post)
The independents control 120 seats, which is much more than the seats reserved for the parties. So their political weight is huge. If these independents decide to join a certain party, then their influence will be even greater.
Reporter, Male #2
Despite the raging conflict among the parties and the negative effects on the political future of the country, Libyans are demanding an end to division as means to preserve the principles of national unity. The rituals of the democratic wedding have come to an end in Libya, marking the beginning of a new dawn, amid concern over the political future of the country and the makeup of the next government, which hinges on the formation of coalitions among the political rivals. Wajdi Bin Masud, Al-Alam, Tripoli.
Thirty-seven dead in Syria as Russian president calls for peaceful solution [Al Jazeera, Qatar]
Presenter, Male #1
On the political front, Russian President Vladimir Putin called for a peaceful political solution in Syria. In a statement aired on Russian TV, he said the situation in Syria requires dialogue between the regime and the opposition, in order to guarantee a lasting peace, instead of foreign intervention.
Guest Male #2 (Vladimir Putin, Russian President)
I am fully convinced that we must do all we can to force the disputed parties to find a peaceful political solution to settle all disputes. This may lead to a long-term settlement and a stable development.
Presenter, Male #1
On the ground, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said that 37 people were killed today by the gunfire of the regime's army. Most of them died in Idlib, Hama, and the countryside of Damascus. On the other hand, the Revolution's General Commission reported that the towns of Qatana and Deir al-Asafeer in the countryside of Damascus were subjected to shelling by the regime's army. Syrian activists reported that violent clashes occurred between the regime's army and the Free Army on the southern circinate road in Damascus.
Reporter, Female #1
The target was bombed as identified. And the target here is civilian homes in the towns of Sahl al-Ghab in Syria. As for the weapons, they belong to the regime's army, according to activists who obtained the leaked video, but do not know the exact date of the bombing.
Reporter, Female #1
Another leaked video shows the Syrian forces raiding homes. And a third shows the destruction and looting as it appears here in a conversation between soldiers in the city of Tadmur in Homs Province.
Reporter, Female #1
The activists captured on film other operations by the regime's army against revolting cities, and the shelling of several neighborhoods in Deir az-Zour and the neighborhoods of al-Khalidiya, al-Sultaniya, al-Basateen, and Jobar in Homs, and the city of Izaz in the countryside of Aleppo and Khirbet Ghazala and Daraa al-Balad in Daraa.
Reporter, Female #1
And the result: deaths and injuries, the most notable pictures coming from the city of Ariha in Idlib, where events were described as a massacre, but whose images can't be entirely broadcast due to their graphic content. This comes as the destruction of buildings and properties continues across bombarded areas. The Syrian army's heavy mobilization against those revolting against the regime, since protests erupted 16 months ago, shifted the path of the revolution from peaceful protests to a military confrontation led by the Free Syrian Army, which has been recently gaining momentum on the ground.
Reporter, Female #1
The clashes with the regime's army are becoming increasingly violent in the areas witnessing heavy artillery shelling, as seen here in Jouret al-Shayyah in Homs. Capturing areas is also increasing as it appears in Homs's Talbisa, where the Free Army is seen patrolling areas outside the control of the regime and is celebrating its seizure of heavy and light equipment.
Reporter, Female #1
Despite the expansion of military operations, the Syrian revolutionaries are continuing to hold peaceful protests demanding freedom, similar to those that sparked their revolution.
Bahraini court orders Islamic Action Society to disband [Press TV, Iran]
A court in Bahrain has ordered the disbanding of a major Shia opposition party. Authorities say the Islamic Action Society is allegedly guilty of several violations, including what they termed as promoting violence and financial irregularities. Shia opposition parties, including al-Wefaq, have slammed the move. They say the decision is a violation of the constitution and law.
Meanwhile, Bahraini regime forces have detained prominent human rights activist Nabeel Rajab. He has been sentenced to three months in jail on charges linked to online tweets he posted against the regime.
Egypt constitutional court revokes president's decree [Press TV, Iran]
Egypt's highest court has just rejected President Mohamed Morsi's call to reinstate the dissolved parliament. The military disbanded parliament last month based on a ruling by the Supreme Constitutional Court, but President Morsi on Sunday ordered the chamber to reconvene, saying that the legislature should function until a new election is held. Later, the speaker of the assembly invited lawmakers to meet on Tuesday, but the Supreme Constitutional Court says that all its rulings are final and binding, and cannot be appealed.
Golan Heights residents fear Israeli attacks [Press TV, Iran]
People in Syria's Golan Heights fear an unexpected attack by Israel, believing that Tel Aviv will attack Syria after Western governments fail in their attempts to undermine the Syrian government and its sovereignty. The people of the Golan believe that Israel will not stop its expansion plans, even if it means opening the Golan front for a new war with Syria.
Report claims Israeli settlements in West Bank do not violate international law [IBA, Israel]
A newly-released report by a committee headed by retired Justice Edmond Levy claims that the building of settlements in the West Bank is not in violation of international law. It adds that the only settlements that are illegal are those that are built on private Palestinian land. Several government ministers have called on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to act immediately and authorize all settlements in the West Bank.
Susya revisited: Life after eviction [Palestine TV, Ramallah]
Presenter, Female #1
The citizens of Khirbet Susya, east of Yatta in southern Hebron, live in fear, especially at night as a result, of the provocations by the occupation's soldiers and settlers, who purposely intensify their attacks at night.
Reporter, Male #1
Here in Khirbet Susya, east of Yatta in southern Hebron, media outlets usually report on the suffering of the people in the morning, but this time we chose to convey the image at night, as the occupation settlers intensify their attacks during this time. Between the settlements and the Israeli camps, more than 350 residents live in tents that do not protect them from the hot summer or cold winter. But this is the least of their concerns amid the settler's attacks in the late hours of the night, when they enter the village like bats and wreak havoc in it.
Guest Male #2
The army's nighttime training operations are very disturbing; it is upsetting for the children and all the residents of the village. Around a year and a half ago, around 12 or 12:30 at night, they came and burned tents while people were sleeping inside of them.
Reporter, Male #1
Sara al-Nawagaa, a resident of the village and a recipient of one of the 58 orders that seek to demolish their tents and confiscate their land, manages her household in a primitive way, although she lives in the 21st century.
Guest, Female #2 (Sara al-Nawagaa)
We live here, where there is no access to roads. No roads and no cars. If someone gets sick, we transport them on a donkey to the doctor. A woman who is about to deliver a baby is put on a donkey or a tractor. They opened a road for the military base. They sometimes open it to us, and other times they close it.
Reporter, Male #1
Khirbet Susya lacks life's basic components, as the occupation prevents water and electricity from reaching it. The families of the village are forced to use rainwater and solar energy to be provided with small amounts of electricity. However, the occupation threatened this alternative energy with demolition.
Reporter, Male #1
Despite the residents' suffering and primitive way of life, and despite the attacks of the occupation and settlers, they vowed to stay in the lands of their fathers and grandfathers.
Guest, Male #3
All of this is an attempt to make us leave this land so that they can take it. But this is my father's land and my grandfather's land. They were here, and it is not easy for me to leave it; it is impossible for me to leave it. We will stay here until we die.
Reporter, Male #1
Susya is a marginalized area that requires more support and care and means to promote the residents' resistance, so their lands do not turn into an easy target for the expanding settlements. Sari al-Awaiwi, Palestine TV.

Wedding Planning Community - Wedding News Forums & Blogs
I have just seen a lovely photo of some paper flowers as a bouquet, in this very forum and I thought what a great idea, they will last longer, if not forever and you can separate them and use them as decorations in your house after the big day.... trouble is, would you throw the bouquet or keep it, I would be very inclined to keep it and not throw it, lol, what do you think? If the bridesmaids have a little bouquet too you could use it as a wedding favour and save some costs?
It is good idea but who sold that paper flower bouquet.I am so excited to see that flower can you post that flower for me.Thank you for share.
It depends on what one wants. For my wedding I have two bouquets. The one I threw away, my bridesmaids, and my centerpieces were made out of artifical flowers from michaels, hobby lobby, etc. The bouquet that I walked down the aisle with was a fresh flower bouquet from the florist. It was hard to tell that I had "fake" flowers at my wedding.
Being a wedding planner its what is acceptable to the bride and what they can afford. Again I've seen it done both ways, some brides want all fresh flowers and others want the look of fresh flowers without the cost.

Interview : Christina Kalantzi & Thomais Chatzigianni – Dakrya (2010)
Interview by Si Smith
Although Dakrya is derived from the Greek word for tears, there is nothing weepy and morbid about this group of theatrical musicians! Dubbing themselves "The Charlatans" and branding their new album "an avant garde metal freakshow", this septet of metal magick brings you the thrills and spills of the stage alongside the sparkle and allure of the circus. I spoke to two of the leading talents, Christina and Thomais….
First of all, thanks so much for this interview and greetings from all at Femme Metal. You call yourselves collectively the Charlatans. I gather that this is a old 16th century reference to "a flamboyant actor; one who attracts customers with tricks or jokes". How well would you say this describes your little theatrical troupe?
Thomais: Well our little concept is based on this kind of twisted circus world. It's a different but yet the same aspect of seeing the world we live in. It helped us connect with the character each one of us had inside … and bring it to life… Each one of us has its own unique and important role to play within this world.
Christina: We use our music to attract "customers", in our case the audience, and through the cheerful circus themes and musical theater atmosphere we try to introduce them to the "Crime Scene" which is the world that we live in. Our lyrics speak of dreadful stories where money, ego, and fraud are the driving force of our society. So I guess we are Charlatans, we trick people to attract them to our world!
You burst onto the scene in 2008 with "Monumento" which was an invigorating mix of religious and operatic imagery. In contrast the theme of the new album is described in the opening song as involving "a dazzling haze of criminal minds; riddles, traps and horrible crimes". How did this concept for the new album arise?
Thomais: It came really natural I would dare to say! Just look at the world around you… the whole album theme is vital and you are a part of it as well… it is the everyday things we have to deal with… people hiding behind masks feeling artificially beautiful, a world based on creating fear and insecurity… it was really easy for us to evolve with this concept.
Before the release of the full-length itself came the single "The Urban Tribe" as a download. In what ways did you feel that this was a representative track to put out as a single?
Thomais: First of all I believe that this track shows our new style and sound in many ways…the one that could hold the listener by the hand and make him enter our new world step by step and become familiar with the new things we wanted to express.
Christina: "The Urban Tribe" is a song that reflects the change in our musical style in the best way in our opinion. Also we all love it! It's a powerful track, a combination of jazz and swing elements with metal riffs and strong lyrics that holds the essence of the album.
Many of the lyrics of the new album involve jugglers, clowns or mime artists. Your vocals too are extremely theatrical and effectively express different nuances of emotion. What are your musical and/or theatrical backgrounds?
Thomais: Well I started my studies in the vocal area as a classical/opera singer (exactly what I do in "Monumento" album) but I've always had the craving of experimenting with my voice… the sound and color of it. I had a great love for dance and theater as well so musical theatre came across my way and I started searching and expanding my potentials as a singer in this field… I guess that helped me to discover my demanding little dark twisted character in "Crime Scene"!
Christina: Actually I have no theatrical background, never took any acting lessons or participated in a theatrical play. As for my musical background, I started singing since I started talking! I took singing lessons for many years and before Dakrya I was in another metal band. But I believe singing and acting are strongly connected, and many times you are called to play a role when interpreting a song. So I think it would be very useful for me and probably any singer to take some acting lessons.
The "roving" rhythms of tracks such as "The Urban Tribe" and "Camouflage" are highly reminiscent of the recent achievements of bands such as Diablo Swing Orchestra. Where would you say your influences are, as musicians, vocalists and performers?
Thomais: I think that the fact the seven of us has so many and different influences and sounds we like to listen and experimenting with gives this rare and weird sound. Of course we love bands such as DSO and Unexpect, but speaking for myself I really love soundtracks, alternative music, jazz, blues, and artists that love to take their sound one step further and create different and unique worlds like Tool, Porcupine Tree, Shining… there are so many I could name right now… I also have many pop – electro and industrial favorites, folk and world music as well… there are no limits in what I listen to, it depends on my emotional state every time.
Christina: We all like Diablo Swing Orchestra and I guess their sound was a great influence for us. As for me as a vocalist, my influences are quite diverse. From Dusty Springfield and Aretha Franklin to Bruce Dickinson! I love soul music, blues and jazz, while musicals like Chicago give me ideas about my stage performance. I want to find my own identity as an artist and i always have my eyes and ears open during this way.
The album slows down a little for "Inertia" then bursts into life again for the arrival of "Dramatis Personae", which swells up like a Final Act before the ending of the play. In what ways does this song encapsulate or summarise some of the main themes of the album?
Christina: ''Dramatis Personae" is actually the Final Act, as it reflects the main reason for the fear, the consumerism, the corruption and generally the madness that composes today's life and were mentioned in the previous tracks. We all play roles, we are actors in a play we don't really know the scenario, but have to improvise every time for our own advantage or the advantage of those above us. As the song says if you want to survive "play your role right!"
You have recently been signed by Sensory Records, the same label as bands such as DSO, Wuthering Heights and Circus Maximus. In what ways (if any) has this changed the way things are done in Dakrya? In what ways is the label supportive of you as artists?
Thomais: Well we are satisfied that this cooperation came up! We have the right promotional support and many chances to take our sound beyond the borders of our country. We feel very proud sharing the same floor with so talented artists and it has helped us focus more on our targets for the future.
Christina: We are very glad we had the chance to be signed by Sensory Records. They have appreciated our work from the beginning and they support and promote us a lot, especially in the USA. So as far as we are concerned we try harder to do everything with professionalism and become better musicians and performers through a lot of work, so that we can return their trust in us.
By now you will have just completed your first February show in Athens alongside Psycrence and Allen's Hand. Please tell us how the show went!! What were the highlights for you?
Thomais: We had such a really nice time and enjoyed ourselves a lot!!! It was the first time that we played for the Greek audience after so long and introducing the brand new concept and album to them was pretty challenging… it came up more like a theatrical show in the end! I was very exciting feeling this live contact with the audience again!!!
Christina: Yes, we had our first show in Athens on February after the release of our new album "Crime Scene" and it went really great! We enjoyed it a lot and I think the audience enjoyed it as well. We had the chance to play in a great venue, the sound was very good and generally we didn't face any problems or misfortunes. As for the audience I think the whole show, with our performance enriched with theatrical elements came as a surprise to them!
The whole Dakrya experience must be very daunting to recreate in the live environment. How on earth do you all keep track of all the elements involved? This surely must involve a lot of practice….
Thomais: Yeah it takes a hell of a practice!! Haha… well every rehearsal is a small show for us… cause as you very correctly said we have to give this sense of theatrical experience to the people that will give it a try and check us live. We also have this need of creating a vital world to bring those characters we get to play, into life. So we came up with lots of ideas and combined them interactively into our show…
Christina: Yes, the truth is that it's really difficult to recreate live the whole concept of "Crime Scene". When we do our rehearsals we practice on everything. It's kind of preparing a theatrical play where we have to take care of the costumes, the stage scenery and our whole performance apart from playing music and singing. Every song is a story we want to tell people and we enrich it with theatrical elements. On February's show the audience took a small taste of what is coming up because we're still working on it and try to make our stage performance better and make a step forward all the time.
I imagine it must be good for morale to have more than one vocalist up on stage at any one time. How does the dynamic work between you two? How do you manage to encourage each other when things get rough along the way?
Thomais: Well it was a spiritual kind of bonding that we shared from the very beginning… We managed to work perfectly together and had many ideas on how to create styles and melodies within the songs. We came to the point that we can choose the parts that Sophia gives us to work just by instinct. I feel that without each other the whole concept wouldn't be whole… I would feel incomplete as a voice and theatrical character if Christina wasn't there; knowing how important we are to each other encourages us and gives us strength for the show to go on!
Christina: We work perfectly together and sharing the stage has become something essential for us. Actually we can't imagine Dakrya with just one of us! I think we complement each other and we manage to create a balance on stage. We always help and support each other and for example if I forget any lyrics, Thomais is there to cover it up and this can be a great relief!
With all the different ideas that make up a Dakrya album, how do the creative roles divide up between the band members? How does the average track get written?
Thomais: Each one of us created his own character and gave it personal characteristics. The average track and idea is written by SophiaX and then all of us are involving our ideas and colors in it… she gives us the toys and then we play haha… then the roles and their development are take their natural way I believe due to the fact that we are not only band mates but very close friends, we know each other's way of thinking and there is a bidirectional trust in between us… so we always respect each other's "sound space".
Christina: Usually SophiaX is the one that composes the music and writes all the lyrics. So after the main directions from SophiaX, we all have the chance to add our own ideas and improvise on our instruments. Along with Thomais we get the music and the lyrics and then we make the vocal arrangements with SophiaX helping us especially when it comes to matters of expression and interpretation of the lyrics.
Finally, it would be great to know if you have any hopes of aspirations for the future of Dakrya. Or for yourselves as individuals? Is there anything revealing you would like us to know about yourselves before we close?
Thomais: We are planning to have some shows here in Greece and hopefully abroad, because we will be entering the studios once again soon!!!
Christina: What we really want for the future is to keep playing music that expresses us and making albums like "Crime Scene" which we feel very proud of. We are planning to have more live shows around Greece and abroad and we want more people to enter our "freakshow"!
Thank you so much for taking part, really, you guys do a great job, and we at Femme Metal wish the album and the Charlatans all success in the future!!
Christina: Thank you as well for your support and this great interview! We hope to see you all soon on stage!

Interview : Christina Kalantzi & Thomais Chatzigianni – Dakrya (2008)
Interview by Erwin van Dijk
Dakrya is a gothic metal band from Greece and the bandname means "Tears" in Greek. They recently released their debut album called "Monumento".
The first question: can you tell us something about yourself?
Christina : Hello, I am Christina and I am singing in Dakrya. Singing sets my soul free, makes me feel alive, and I hope that through our music the audience will find a way to express their feelings.
Thomais : Well… I am Thomais sharing the vocal area (the more classical one) with Christina in Dakrya too. It's a tough job but someone has to do it… haha I'm just kidding. Love sharing the stage with those guys cause they are my friends, and like a family to me.
How did you get into the music business? Did you always wanted to become a singer?
Christina: I always wanted to become a singer, since I remember myself. As a child I used to give performances in front of my parents! My deepest will was to sing and share this joy I felt with others. When I graduated from high school I thought that journalism was a good idea, so I studied mass media at the university. But singing is something that has always been chasing me and I'm quite sure that I won't let it go! At the age of eighteen I started singing lessons and soon I came across people who helped me find my way into the music business.
Thomais: Certainly a tough one, and difficult to handle with! Well, its classical background makes it even more demanding when I have to combine the techniques in this kind of music and it has its needs of space and time. That's why I believe emotion and expression are so important. They give colour and meaning to a voice, helping you pushing your limits further.
Guitarists and drummers can talk endlessly about their gear. Since you are one of the singers of Dakrya, what do you do to keep your voice in top condition?
Christina : As I said before, I've attended singing lessons for 4 years and I'm still working on my voice with exercises. Actually, I'm going to continue the lessons and try to improve my technique and my potentials.
Thomais : For me keeping my voice in a good condition is really important. It's my instrument and the way I handle it shows in the results so I have to be careful. I always prepare my voice before a show, rehearsal or entering a studio. Of course there is a weekly exercise too. The voice is a very fragile instrument and a unique one in every human being. You have to practise its different abilities every day and it never stops to amaze you.
Have you played in other bands before Dakrya? Or do you have an other band besides Dakrya?
Christina : I've participated in another band before Dakrya. That was my first experience in a band, which helped me to learn how to cooperate with other musicians and move on. We didn't have discography or even a band name, we were just a group of people who shared their love for metal and rock music. At the moment Dakrya is my only band and try to give my best to it.
Thomais : Yes I have been in other bands. I was the singer of Insidius Infernus for a period of time, a Greek black metal band, releasing two albums in our active years. I was 17 years old back then and had the cliché nickname Luciferia… hahaha. I have also participated in some theatrical choirs and giving session performances… at the moment I'm giving my full attention to Dakrya and I'll keep it that way for a while as we have new recordings coming and shows to give.
To what kind of music do you listen yourself? And who is your favorite singer?
Christina : I love music in general, but metal and rock music have a special place in my heart. Black Sabbath is my favourite band, with their incomparable riffs stuck in my head! Lately I'm more into southern rock, and listen to bands like Monster Magnet and the Greek's Nightstalker. As for the voices I admire, I love the powerful voice of Bruce Dickinson, the absolute rock voice of Axl Rose and the black voice of Joss Stone.
Thomais : I prefer listening to music that suits my emotional state at any time, I have some favorites starting with Primordial, Shinning or Meshuggah (the third one will make our guitarist really happy! Haha), ending with Loreena McKennit, Ayreon and so on. I listen to metal and classical music of course but I also love industrial, folk – acoustic and rock in general.
Christina, what are the differences between you and Thomais when it comes about singing for Dakrya?
Christina : Thomais has a more lyrical voice with a classical background and as I said we try to combine our voices. Of course, each voice has a different role in the songs. I believe that in Dakrya we are experimenting so much with our voices that sometimes our voices seem like one.
Thomais, what are the differences between you and Christina when it comes about singing for Dakrya?
Thomais : Well, first of all how our voices make as different… plus she is blond! Haha! Every song is a different concept… we have to express different emotions, playing a different role in a more theatrical aspect. That gives us different orientations, but makes us more bonded too. Depending on what you need to feel that very moment you listen the song.
What is the idea behind the band name?
Thomais : Dakrya is a Greek word written in Latin characters and it means 'tears.' I guess Sophia came up with that name for the band because she was having a kind of dark and esoteric period, nostalgic or even a hopeful one. A tear can be shed for many reasons… joy to anger, sadness or fulfillment.
Can you tell us something about the songs present on the debut album?
Christina: The first three songs in the album is a trilogy. They are talking about faith and its loss, the punishment that follows and the domination of pain, and finally about the newborn hope that rises from the ashes of our existence. The human element is very intense through the songs and they describe the emotional changes of a man and the function of the subconscious.
Thomais: All the songs have their own reason to appear in the album, even their order and their structure gives them a concept meaning. Past dominates and bounds a timeline when things change us personally, musically even the people participating in this attempt of giving life in this work. It's a monument of memories that became melodies for you to listen.
About the songwriting: is there one mastermind in the band who does all the writing or is it teamwork?
Thomais : Yes, all the credits go to SophiaX for that. She begun having a dream and tried give it life through her compositions and lyrics. Christina and I create all the vocal arrangements and George D. enriches the sound with extra guitar parts and solos.
Dagwn, the singer from Nethescerial did the brutal vocals on "Monumento". How was it to work together with a male singer?
Thomais : It was fine! We had a great time and fun during the studio sessions! We needed a masculine feeling and he clicked really nice. He is doing a great job with his band too and he was the first we though for the guest vocals.
Christina : It was fine! We had a great time and fun during the studio sessions! We needed a masculine feeling and he clicked really nice. He is doing a great job with his band too and he was the first we though for the guest vocals.
And how are you going to do his part live? With guest singers?
Thomais : George has already taken the responsibility for the brutal vocals and it works really well on stage too. Well, guest singers may appear in the future but for different reasons and not from the lack of one.
Christina: Yes, I think it's time for George to show all of his talents!
I could find little information about Thomas K, who did the declamations on "Monumento". Who is he?
Thomais : Thomas is a very good friend of us and had been preparing during rehearsals as a second guitarist for a small period. He left the group though for his own personal reasons and we won't have him with us but of course our friendship still remains.
Christina : Thomas K except from our friend I believe he is our biggest fan! He is very supportive and we are so grateful about it.
There are not many metal bands from Greece and certainly not with female singers (exceptions are to name a few Ismini and Astarte) Can you tell us something about the music scene in Greece. Is it difficult there for the more heavy metal oriented bands?
Thomais : Things are very difficult in the metal Greek scene in general. Labels don't pay a great attention to newcomers and sponsorships are rare in the beginning. So you have to try with your own forces, to prove yourself to the audience who is the only factor that will set the fate of a new group, by accepting or reject it.
Christina : Actually there are many metal bands in Greece. The problem is that it is very difficult for metal bands here to move on and become known to a larger audience and especially outside the borders of Greece. The most popular music in Greece is the local Greek music and dominates the music business without leaving any opportunities for metal or even rock bands to develop. It is really sad…
And since Greece is relatively far away from Western Europe (some 3,000 kilometres by car) is that the reason why we see not many bands from Greece tour in the west? (Besides Rotting Christ).
Thomais : All that I said before comes to the answer in your question. A label will make an attempt to support a band and helping it's effort by booking a European tour and so on, when it will notice it's success and acceptance in Greece.
Christina : If you don't have some kind of financial support I think it's too difficult to tour to Europe. Especially for young people who are working hard just to make a living and they have no savings…
So, are there any plans for a tour in Europe?
Christina : There are no plans at the moment, as we want to tour in Greece first, but there are a few potentials for European gigs in 2009 and we are going to make it true despite the obstacles! We want to see the world and taste new experiences as musicians and as persons too.
And the last question, are there things the reader should know that I haven't ask?
Thomais : Thank you Erwin, for giving us the chance to come closure to the audience. We would love to see you soon by giving a live performance in your country.
Christina : I want to thank you too! Well, the readers should know that we have some new stuff to work on and hope we will surprise them positively!

Dakrya – "Crime Scene" (2010)
Label : Sensory Records
Review By Tony Cannella
From Greece comes the avant-garde metal band Dakrya. On their impressive 2008 debut, "Monumento", Dakrya proved to be a difficult band to categorize and the same holds true on their new album "Crime Scene". The bands style and influences are wide ranging and they manage to incorporate it all in a metal framework.Dakrya are a band that really does not set any boundaries or limitations on themselves and that much is certain on "Crime Scene". The opening intro of "The Charlatans" kicks things off. This song is actually a straight-forward metal track, with a powerful guitar riff running throughout the duration of the song. "Blind Man's Bluff" is a great sounding second track, as female vocalist Christina Kalantzi really stretches her vocal range throughout this one and this track also features a number of cool tempo changes. With all that is going on throughout their songs, Dakrya still manages to inject heavy doses of melodicism – which is always a plus in my book. Other songs worth checking out: "Scare Mongering", the bombastic "The Urban Tribe", "Camouflage" and "Phantasmagoria". With "Crime Scene", Dakrya has released an album that is both adventurous and challenging but in the end, the payoff is well worth it.

Dakrya – "Monumento" (2008)
Label: Another Sphere Records/279 Productions
Review by Tony Cannella
Dakrya is a Greek word written with Latin characters and means Tears In metal circles they are a six person band from Greece. They have been in existence since 2004 and feature three female members in their ranks: Sophia X (keyboards & piano), Christina (lead vocals) and Thomais (Classic vocals). The band is completed by George D. (guitars), Alex D. (bass) and Stauros V. (drums). Musically, they are described as Theatrical Atmospheric Metal and they have just issued their debut effort titled "Monumento". The opening track "Crucifixion of Faith"opens with some really cool keyboard music and some male spoken word passages before things speed up and get heavier. Vocalists Christina and Thomais work well together and the male brutal vocals are supplied by Dagwn (from the band Nethescerial) throughout the CD. Next up is "Thorns of Punishment". This is one monster of a song. It is heavy, with a great guitar riff, with lots of changes and the interplay between the different vocal styles is a definite highlight and one of this bands strengths. "Newborn Hope"is next. Once again it begins with an eerie keyboard passage. It starts off slow, before getting heavier and evolving into just a classy track with plenty of atmosphere. Once again this song features some spoken word passages. Next is "Reflexions & Illusions". This is more of a straight forward metal track, but effective nonetheless. Next, we have "Waters of Oblivion". This is more of a mid-tempo number, but it still has plenty of aggression and great vocals. It keeps things going nicely. "Revelations of a Madman" is probably my favorite track here. It's got an epic feel and the three vocal styles are amazing and really gives the song an added. "Black Opera (Opus IX)" is another favorite. At 7 minutes long this is longest track. "Wingless Souls" closes things out on a classic note. This just a piano song with operatic vocals and orchestration. This is a beautiful track that really wraps things up nicely. The majority of the songs were written by Sophia X. She is obviously very talented in that respect as the songs are not your average, run-of-the-mill metal songs. It is quite apparent that she puts a lot of thought and effort into the material. "Monumento" is a fitting title for this CD. It's sound and ambition is indeed monumental. The songs presented here are heavy and aggressive whilst still being melodic and accessible. The music ranges from beautiful, symphonic passages to brutal all-out metal. The different vocal styles are a nice touch and a good way to change things up a bit. All of the vocal styles fit perfectly with the songs and they do a great job in conveying the emotions and feelings they are meant to. The talent and style shown by the two female singers is immense and the male brutal vocals are done very well. "Monumento" features 10 songs and 53-minutes worth of well thought out music that has a lot to offer the listener.
Rating – 85/100
- Crucifixion of Faith

Swimmer's itch
By Mayo Clinic staffOriginal Article: http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/swimmers-itch/DS00902
Swimmer's itch |
Swimmer's itch is an itchy rash caused by certain parasites that normally live in freshwater snails and sometimes on waterfowl.
On warm, sunny days, these parasites can be released into mainly fresh water or occasionally salt water. During your swim, the parasites might burrow into your skin, where they cause the swimmer's itch rash. But humans aren't suitable hosts for them, so the parasites soon die while still in your skin.
Although uncomfortable, swimmer's itch is usually short-lived. The rash of swimmer's itch, also called cercarial dermatitis, typically clears up on its own within a few days. In the meantime, you can control itching with over-the-counter or prescription medications.
Swimmer's itch |
Swimmer's itch is characterized by:
- Itching that may begin in just an hour or two, or as long as two days after swimming
- A red, raised rash
Swimmer's itch usually affects only exposed skin — skin not covered by swimsuits, wet suits or waders. The rash may appear up to 48 hours after swimming in infested water, but you may also experience itching without ever developing a rash. If you're exposed to the same parasites again, the rash might become more severe.
When to see a doctor
Talk to your doctor if you have a rash after swimming that lasts more than one week. If you notice pus at the rash site, consult your doctor. You might be referred to a doctor who specializes in skin conditions (dermatologist).
The cause of swimmer's itch is an allergic reaction to parasites that migrate from snails to ducks, geese, gulls, swans, muskrats and beavers. The parasites then return to water through infected feces and eggs.
Swimmer's itch isn't contagious from person to person, so you don't need to worry about "catching" swimmer's itch from someone who has this itchy rash.
Risk factors
Your risk of swimmer's itch depends on a number of environmental factors:
- Air and water temperatures that are warm enough for snails to reproduce and grow, such as in the late summer months in many parts of the world
- The return of migrating birds infected with parasites
- Bodies of water that contain parasites, especially along shorelines and in shallow areas
The more time you spend in infested water, the higher your risk of swimmer's itch. Children may have the highest risk, since they tend to play in shallow water and are less likely to dry off with a towel.
Some people are more sensitive to swimmer's itch than others are. And, your sensitivity can increase each time you're exposed to the parasites that cause swimmer's itch.
Swimmer's itch rarely leads to complications, but infection is possible if you scratch the rash too harshly.
Preparing for your appointment
You're likely to start by seeing your family doctor or a general practitioner. However, in some cases when you call to set up an appointment, you may be referred immediately to a specialist in skin conditions (dermatologist).
Your time with your doctor is limited, so preparing a list of questions will help you make the most of your time together. For swimmer's itch, some basic questions to ask your doctor include:
- What is likely causing my symptoms or condition?
- Other than the most likely cause, what are possible causes for my symptoms or condition?
- What kinds of tests do I need?
- Is my condition likely temporary or chronic?
- What is the best course of action?
- I have these other health conditions. How can I best manage them together?
- Are there any restrictions that I need to follow?
- Should I see a specialist?
- Is there a generic alternative to the medicine you're prescribing me?
In addition to the questions that you've prepared to ask your doctor, don't hesitate to ask questions during your appointment.
What to expect from your doctor
Your doctor is likely to ask you a number of questions, such as:
- When did you first begin experiencing symptoms?
- Have your symptoms been continuous, or occasional?
- What, if anything, seems to improve your symptoms?
- What, if anything, appears to worsen your symptoms?
- Have you been swimming or bathing outdoors recently?
Tests and diagnosis
Diagnosing swimmer's itch can be a challenge, because the rash can resemble other skin problems, such as poison ivy, chickenpox, dermatitis, impetigo or even herpes. There are no specific tests to diagnose swimmer's itch. Be sure to tell the doctor if your symptoms appeared after swimming or if others developed a similar rash after swimming in the same place.
Treatments and drugs
Swimmer's itch typically clears up on its own within a few days, though in some cases the rash can last up to a week. In the meantime, you can control itching with over-the-counter antihistamines or anti-itch creams, such as those that contain calamine lotion. If the itching is severe, your doctor may recommend a prescription medication.
Lifestyle and home remedies
As much as you're tempted, don't scratch. In addition to a cream or medication to soothe swimmer's itch, it might help to:
- Cover affected areas with a clean, wet washcloth.
- Soak in a bath sprinkled with Epsom salts, baking soda or oatmeal.
- Stir water into baking soda until it makes a paste and then apply it to the affected areas.
If the itching is intense, ask your doctor about prescription medication to ease your symptoms.
To reduce the risk of swimmer's itch:
- Choose swimming spots carefully. Avoid swimming in areas where swimmer's itch is a known problem or signs warn of possible contamination. Also avoid swimming or wading in marshy areas where snails are commonly found.
- Avoid the shoreline, if possible. If you're a strong swimmer, head to deeper water for your swim because you may be more likely to develop swimmer's itch if you spend a lot of time in shallow water.
- Rinse after swimming. Rinse exposed skin with fresh water immediately after leaving the water, then vigorously dry your skin with a towel. Launder your swimsuits often. You might even alternate wearing different swimsuits.
- Skip the bread crumbs. Don't feed birds on docks or near swimming areas.
- Take care of your pool. If you have a pool, keep it well maintained and chlorinated.
There's no evidence that applying sunscreen, lotions or creams helps prevent swimmer's itch.

So this rp is going to be about change, personal growth and facing and overcoming problems. The feeling I want this rp to emulate is finding inner strength and finding friendship and maybe even love among the regulars of a small café.
Welcome to the New Hope Café
Owned and run by Miss Naomi Grey the New Hope Café was founded on the principle that life is never without hope. You can find anything from a good meal to a listening ear to a shoulder to lean on at the New Hope Café. Come on in for a home cooked meal and maybe something that can brighten your day or your life.
I only have two rules:
1. No one-liners.
2. No fighting in the OOC.
Pretty simple huh? Easy to remember and follow.
Looks: I prefer real person pics, but anime is acceptable as long as it is high quality
Personality: doesn't have to be a lot, just a general idea
Secrets: Everyone has them. It is up to you whether or not you want to reveal them right away or later on down the road. Or you can reveal one or two now and save others for later. Totally up to you.
Name: Naomi Grey
Age: 24
Personality: Cheerful and kind. Always has her bright smile on for people. She feels that everyone has darkness inside of them, but if you nurture the light you can find happiness. Can be silly and quirky at times and loves a good laugh. Tries to see the bright side of everything that happens, but is someone trustworthy to lean on in times of trouble.
Secrets: It is not really a secret that her parents died suddenly or that her brother is the one that killed them in a drug-induced hallucination. It is also no secret that her brother is now in an asylum for the insane. But Naomi's happy smile hides other secrets that no one knows...
Thank you for you interest!

text: Monica (Roma Downey) shows up as a reporter at the World Cup Qualifier Ski Race in Park City, Utah. The "highlight" of the event promises to be a grudge match between two competitive skiiers, Jett (David Lascher) and Will (Sean Murray). Though they are lifelong friends, a certain amount of friction has developed around the fact that whenever they've skiied in the same race, Jett has invariably come in first, and Will has always finished up second. Enraged by the insinuation that Will has been letting him win all these years, Jett insists upon a final, definitive, winner-take-all competition--which may result in tragedy for both men! ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Posted 8:28 PM 2/26/2013 : Tucson-area schools bracing for budget cuts ahead of Federal sequester
TUCSON - The across the board spending cuts that could go into effect Friday will affect all of us. Especially if you have a child in school or are a teacher.
Many schools in Tucson get substantial amounts of money for Title One and the school lunch program.
The U.S. Secretary of Education had a national conference call with educators Tuesday about potential cuts.
What local educators are expecting?
The Flowing Wells district is anticipating a five percent cut. That's about $200 thousand, money that pays teacher salaries and funds programs like special education.
Dr. Nic Clement says there are a number of details that need clarification.
A big question that's still looming is when will the cuts happen?
"Is this going to take place beginning July 1, 2013 or is it retro to this year, when they received their federal dollars," asks Clement.
Questions like this were addressed in a national conference call with the Secretary of Education.
At stake for Arizona schools is $17 million in funding, 240 teaching jobs are at risk, with 19 thousand students, and 70 fewer schools being served.
In addition special education would be impacted. With $10 million in cuts including 120 teachers.
"We longer have counselors in elementary schools, we've cut back in library services. We've increased class sizes, this just compounds it," says Clement.
Clement says right now there's not enough specific information to make any firm decisions on how to deal with a $200 thousand cut.
