Elizabeth Bennett I'm tired of this, aren't you?

Well, after the Thanksgiving weekend I came back to a lot of stuff to catch up on. One article just stood out and could not let go of it. It was written in Canada but can assure you that this problem is alive and well in America. Adults should know better and grow up, learn to leave this garbage at the door. However, from experience and the feedback I get daily, I can assure you that childhood bullies grow worse and exist in the office as well. In the article, I read of a woman working in an o… Continue

billy jones bluez "...the times and travels of an american bluesman."

SOUL-PATROL.com PRESS RELEASE : "As you all know, in my humble opinion, Billy Jones is one of the most compelling artists around on today's Black Blues music scene. For his latest album, he has put together a collection of his best songs on a single album called "The Billy Jones Story." This is something that I wish more artists should do with some of the outstanding music they have released and I am glad to see that Billy has taken that step. Look for 5 or 6 of these songs to make aContinue

Elizabeth Bennett Facebook did Great!

Yesterday kicked off Anti-bullying Week and it goes from November 16-20 2009. One thing that is really being focused upon is the problem of cyber-bullying. As we all know, this is a problem that is out of control and at some point, someone needs to put a stop to it. The problem is a huge one on social sites like My Space, Facebook, Twitter, Bebo and others where kids can go and interact with their friends as well as adults. . Facebook has decided to take some preventative measures and has launch… Continue

Kristin Bowers Children's Letters to God.

Sometimes we need to be reminded of the innocence in the world and there's no better place to find it than in the musing's of children. These snippets come from a little book I bought years ago called "Children's Letters to God." I pick it up every so often to remember that innocence still exists in its purest form.....and also to get a big LAUGH at the same time. ;o)
LOVE TO ALL!

Elizabeth Bennett Why Zero Tolerance is Flawed

As I was watching the local news last evening, I happened to see a segment on the issue of zero tolerance on there. Basically, local school districts were giving their policies and procedures as to how they handle this problem within their schools. The parents were complaining that zero tolerance was too strict and needed to be handled on a case to case basis. Schools have implemented this policy for quite some time in order to cut down on criminal behavior, catch the bullying going on and to ba… Continue

Elizabeth Bennett The problem of sexting

This past Friday, an episode of Degrassi The next Generation aired an episode entitled “Shoot to Thrill”. This episode involved a girl named Ali and her boyfriend Johnny. Ali took some pictures of Johnny and a stuffed animal promising never to share them with anyone. As the episode went on, we saw how poorly Johnny treated Ali in their relationship. Instead of breaking up with him, she took it up a notch and decided to take nude pictures of herself and send them to Johnny on his cell phone. Need… Continue

Elizabeth Bennett Stop Peer Abuse?

Wow! Another week and another Google Alert. This time, its about having cameras in the classrooms in the United Kingdom. Wonder if this trend will hit up the United States? A group in the UK called Class watch sets up cameras in classrooms and uses this as a basis for professional development. So far, they have been set up in over 100 schools and used for in class surveillance. They state that this is not an action of Big Brother existing but of trying to help teachers improve their performance… Continue

Kristin Bowers The Day I Met Daniel.

The Day I Met Daniel by Pastor Richard Ryan---an original essay reprinted in "A Third Serving of Chicken Soup for the Soul" ****This is a true story first recorded in 2001 the day after Pastor Ryan met Daniel. It has been passed around the Internet as "author unknown" for several years. I wanted to give credit to the author as well as validate that it was indeed a true story and not one of the e-rumor/chainmails that commonly get passed along. Thanks for sharing this with me, Victor! If youContinue

Elizabeth Bennett Abuse no more!

Well, another week and more news on the Peer Abuse front. This week, its great news and involves someone finally taking a group of bullies by the horns. In California, there is a serious problem with the paparazzi who try and do what they can to get photos of celebrities without their consent. When I say anything I mean anything! As a result, they become a danger not only to these celebrities but the public in general. All sorts of laws are broken when they are out and about stalking their prey… Continue

Kristin Bowers Human Family.

Human Family Poem by Dr. Maya Angelou Read at the dedication of the Disney Millennium Village I note the obvious differences in the human family. Some of us are serious, some thrive on comedy. Some declare their lives are lived as true profundity, and others claim they really live the real reality. The variety of our skin tones can confuse, bemuse, delight, brown and pink and beige and purple, tan and blue and white. I've sailed upon the seven seas and stopped in every land. I've seen the w… Continue

Elizabeth Bennett Blair, Please Grow Up!

Oh the joy of the fall season on television. New shows popping up and old ones returning. One that has always grabbed my gut is Gossip Girl. Last season was full of backstabbing, game playing and of course, the glorification of the Queen Bee. Well, The CW has graced us with another season and this time, the group of friends are either in college, hitting up the work force or just trying to find themselves. The bottom line is that they are now adults and as adults should be thinking along the lin… Continue

Elizabeth Bennett Slander is NEVER a good thing

South Carolina is in the news a lot these days. As the story broke earlier in the summer about Governor Mark Sanford and his mistress from Argentina, we seem to have more than our share of national publicity. If the Sanford story is not enough to keep people busy, we now have another story break concerning Sanford. The difference is that this story is not true. I guess some people have too much time on their hands. Rita Allison is a 69 year old grandmother from South Carolina. She is a member o… Continue

Elizabeth Bennett It could have been Prevented

This week I wanted to do something a little different. Even though this event occurred many years ago, the name and event remains the same. Also, I doubt this aspect has been discussed at any great length. This event occurred before I was born and before many today were born. It even occurred before Charles Manson and Helter Skelter. As many of us may not remember this particular event, it does go down in history as one of the greatest mass murders of our time. The late 1950’s was the birth of… Continue
