Jim is accused by his ex-girlfriend's mother, Sara, of sexually molesting his 4-year-old daughter Katie. Sara says Katie told her that "my daddy do that" when touching herself. Jim denies the allegations. On the Dr. Phil show, Jim takes a lie detector test and Sara and Latia, Jim's ex-girlfriend, confront him on stage. Latia admits she has no proof but believes her daughter, though she has never seen Jim harm Katie. The discussion becomes heated as Jim maintains his innocence.
Prom Safety and Date Rape are basically two powerpoints in one. Prior to the prom (or any similar event) present this presentation to your teen students (pending school approval of course). Included in this powerpoint is information on date rape drugs, drinking and driving, safety in groups, and more. Be sure young men AND young women are presented these safety tips. This will often encourage the 'good guys' to be more observant to their female friends and their surroundings. Feel free to tweak this powerpoint to meet your needs. You may want to make this two completely separate powerpoints (or contact me and I will be glad to do it for you). I have presented this presentation numerous times. The teens were very receptive. Be sure and ask questions as you are presenting, sparking discussion, engaging your students. I try to keep my presentations simple and to the point, making it easier for the kids to follow.

This document summarizes the different age ratings used by the British Board of Film Classification (BBFC). A 12 rating means that only children age 12 and over can watch films. A 12A rating means children age 12 and over can watch unaccompanied, while younger children must be accompanied by an adult. The main difference between 12 and 12A is that 12A films are shown in theaters. A 15 rating prohibits anyone under 15 from watching, and films may contain stronger content than 12/12A ratings. An 18 rating is strictly for adults age 18 and over and can contain very strong graphic content.
Children's interpretation of the abuse, whether or not they disclose the experience, and how quickly they report it also affects the short- and long-term consequences. Children who are able to confide in a trusted adult and who are believed experience less trauma than children who do not disclose the abuse. Furthermore, children who disclose the abuse soon after its occurrence may be less traumatized than those children who live with the secret for years.

Movies can influence teenagers both positively and negatively. Positively, some movies provide educational information that helps with school. However, movies often portray unrealistic body images that cause body issues in teens. They may also increase likelihood of early sex, violence, and substance use. Specifically, movies glorifying drug and alcohol use make teens more likely to start young. Further, realistic violence in movies can increase aggressive behavior in teens and make them less likely to report violence. While entertainment is important, parents must help teens view movies critically and lead by positive example to minimize negative influences.

Op 9 oktober heeft Ed Alting Siberg op het Ministerie van Economische Zaken in Den Haag zijn visie gegeven op het duurzaam inkopen van ICT gerelateerde hardware.
De middag stond centraal welke aanbieders van circulaire ICT hardware oplossingen goede praktijkgerichte ideeën hebben voor circulaire ICT oplossingen.
Circa 85 Centrale- en decentrale overheden alsmede hardware leveranciers vulden de zaal.
Belangrijke vraag vanuit alle departementen van de Rijksoverheid was inhoudelijk in te gaan op de vraagstelling:
‘Welke meest veelbelovende mogelijkheden voor levensduurverlenging en hoogwaardig hergebruik van ICT hardware ziet uw organisatie?
Hoort daar een andersoortig businessmodel (bv leasing, koop-terugkoop, etc) bij?
Sprekers waren: HP, Canon & SiSo (namens Recover-E ®)
Recover-E ® is geen theoretische oplossing maar is vanuit de praktijk ontwikkeld en gesubsidieerd door de Europese Unie.
Recover-E ® is een onafhankelijke organisatie die vanuit de praktijk de regie neemt om marktpartijen in de gehele ICT keten met elkaar te verbinden.
ICT Lifecycle oplossingen kunnen door vele partijen worden aangeboden maar zijn gebaseerd op een lineaire economie waarbij adaptie op de gehele keten ontbreekt.
Recover-E ® beantwoorde aan alle vragen die die middag vanuit diverse ICT inkoop verantwoordelijken (Centrale/Decentrale overheden alsmede vendoren) werden gesteld.

3. Adolescent psychology deals with common issues teens face like pregnancy, drugs, eating disorders, and depression. Peer influences can also affect behaviors and identity development.
4. Open communication between parents and teens is important
This document discusses teen dating violence and unhealthy relationships. It defines abuse as behaviors used to maintain power and control over a partner. Dating violence can include verbal, emotional, physical, sexual, technological or financial abuse. Signs of an unhealthy relationship include behaviors that physically or emotionally harm one's partner or make them feel afraid. The document provides examples of different types of abusive behaviors and "red flags" to look out for in relationships. It notes that leaving an abusive situation can be dangerous, so safety planning is important. Reasons why people may stay in abusive relationships include not realizing it is abuse, feeling embarrassed or not believing others would support them. The goal is to help teens identify unhealthy relationships early to prevent escalating abuse.
This document discusses sexual assault and provides statistics about teen sexual abuse. It notes that 54% of female victims are abused before age 18, most often by someone they know. It then gives tips for teens on establishing boundaries and trusting their intuition. The document also lists potential signs of abuse in teens and stresses the importance of family support for recovery. Finally, it discusses common parental reactions and provides local crisis hotline resources.
Before beginning my work on this book, I had many parents asking if it was really necessary to even teach drug prevention to children as young as eight. The answer to that question is a resounding, “Yes!” Studies have shown that children as young as six are smoking marijuana, taking prescription pills, and drinking alcohol.
This document provides tips for single fathers on protecting their parental rights. It advises never agreeing to give the child's mother sole custody and explains why. Sole custody gives the mother control and means the father would only have "reasonable parenting time", which is often poorly defined and results in little contact with the child. The document urges fathers to insist on joint legal and physical custody instead and have specific parenting time spelled out in court orders, rather than leaving it vague. It warns that agreeing to the mother having sole custody could severely limit the father's relationship with his child and make it very difficult for him to gain more custody rights in the future.
This document discusses resources for managing crises and the effects of various types of crises on individuals and families. It identifies support systems like the American Red Cross, family counseling centers, and FEMA that can help people cope with crises. The document also describes strategies for problem management during crises, such as maintaining physical and mental health, financial stability, and social support systems. Various crises that families may experience, such as job loss, relocation, addictions, and gambling problems, are outlined along with their impacts. Terms related to crises, abuse, addiction, and interventions are also defined.
13 Do's and Don't to Protect Child Custody and VisitationGoldberg Jones
Child custody and visitation battles are the most harrowing parts of divorce. It's important to take steps to protect your rights as a parent, and here are some tips to do just that.
Grooming is a tactic used by abusers to desensitize victims to abusive behaviors over time. It starts with only positive behaviors to gain trust, then gradually introduces abusive elements in small amounts that do not seem alarming. This process continues until inappropriate behaviors feel normal to the victim. The document then provides tips for parents to help protect children from online grooming, such as teaching them that not everyone is honest online, monitoring their social media use, and ensuring open communication.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

We continue to add our full support and encouragement to all pupils in our school as they proceed
through the exam writing process. Seven more exam days remain before the exams are completed
and we can then look forward to our mid-year break.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION RE MATRIC CERTIFICATES
We have received a directive from the Western Cape Education Department that every
unclaimed matric certificate that we hold at Fairmont has to be returned to the Education
Department by the end of this term. Should you know of a past pupil or be one yourself
who has never collected the certificate, to do so urgently. They will be held at the
Department in Cape Town for a period of three years only and thereafter will be
destroyed.
The 2014 matric certificates will remain at Fairmont until the end of the year. The
unclaimed certificates will be returned to the Department where they will also remain for
a period of three years and thereafter will be destroyed.
COUNSELLOR'S CORNER
Teen drinking – an alarming reality
Adolescents' alcohol consumption has reached alarming levels. Many teenagers are drinking
heavily, and the starting age is becoming ever younger.
Adolescents have always been known to experiment with alcohol, but what we're seeing now is a
very different story. The age at which heavy drinking starts, the number of teens involved, the
frequency and the quantities consumed are very different to 'when we were young'. Binge-drinking
is becoming increasingly common and teen alcoholism is on the rise, as are a number of other
alcohol-related side effects.
There is an abundance of out-of-control teen parties where alcohol flows freely, parental supervision
is inadequate and behaviour is wild.
Most parties for thirteen-year-olds and up involve alcohol (with or without parents' knowledge). It is
smuggled in, delivered to the gate, openly carried in, or quite often even supplied by the hosting
parents themselves. Parents say that if they try to ban alcohol from a party, they're told that 'no one
will come', that they're forcing their child to commit 'social suicide', and that 'everyone drinks
wherever we go; it's the norm'.
A typical scenario we often hear about goes something like this: Your teen persuasively tells you
about a party, sleepover or club that 'everyone is going to'. You don't want to to be the only stick-in-
the-mud, nor do you want your child to be branded as antisocial, so you make all the necessary
arrangements to get him or her (and possibly a friend or two) to the event, and to go back to one of
the friends' homes afterwards. Unbeknown to you there is alcohol at the party, and your beloved,
along with many mates, overindulges.
They go back to the friend's house, where they proceed to throw up for the rest of the night, sleeping
late the next day to recover. As you collect them later that day, you're met with pale faces that are
explained away as 'a late night'. The hosting parents, even if they suspect what happened, probably
won't mention a word in order to avoid any recriminations. Some children will only get so drunk once,
while others turn it into a regular occurrence.
Alcohol – the root of many problems
Some of the realities include the following:
Alcohol is a gateway to the drug scene. Under its influence, joints of 'weed' are tried, and
these in turn often lead to other, stronger drugs.
Teens lose their inhibitions and engage in sexual activity they would not otherwise have
indulged in.
3. Alcohol affects decision-making. After even one drink, teens may well make questionable
decisions concerning drunk-driving, going home with someone they've only just met, spending
money, etc.
Drunk girls are a rape target. Many rapes occur because the girl is too drunk to protect herself,
ends up in bad company or makes decisions that lead her to dangerous places.
Aggression increases, leading to confrontations and fights. Stories abound of fights at
parties, schools and homes as a result of alcohol-fuelled aggression.
Health-related side effects. Various studies have shown that excessive use of alcohol is
physically detrimental, damages brain cells, can jeopardise fertility, reduces bone density,
increases the risk of breast cancer and can affect various other areas.
Teen alcoholism is growing. There is no arguing the point: alcohol can be addictive and, when
consumed regularly in large quantities, a reliance can be formed and the chances of becoming
an alcoholic rise sharply.
Drunken driving claims young lives and forever devastates families.
Parties: quandaries & tips
When they’re off to someone else’s party
In the interests of de-stressing the party issue:
Find out as much as you can about the party, for example, at whose house will the party be?
Will the parents be there all the time? (Never allow your child to go to a party if the parents are
not there). What boundaries are they implementing?
Don’t be shy about phoning the hosting parents to enquire about any areas of concern.
Let the hosts know if you’re uncomfortable with particular aspects, such as serving
alcohol, and ask them not to allow anything that breaks the law.
Always check that you’re comfortable with the driver and that they won’t be drinking.
Feed them before they go. Unless you’re 100 per cent certain that food will be served, and
even if you’re assured that they’re not hungry, ensuring that they eat something before going is
a good idea, especially if they drink alcohol (as so many do nowadays).
Make sure they have access to a charged phone. Then, if at all worried, they can call.
Make it clear that they cannot under any circumstances leave that party and go to another
without getting your express permission.
You (or a trusted parent) should pick them up at the agreed time but they should also know
that they can phone you at any stage if they need to leave.
Be awake when your children return home or have them wake you. Engage them in
conversation for a while.
Encourage them not to take valuables to the party, and, if they do, to hang onto them at all
times. Cellphones are often essential and cameras are great fun, so if these are taken along,
it’s worth stressing their vulnerability to being lost or stolen.
Keep reminding them never to leave their drink unattended!
Define your rules and make the consequences of breaking them absolutely clear. And be
strong in enforcing any consequences you may have listed.
Instil values in your children from young and discuss what happens to people who don’t
adhere to them.
It’s your prerogative to tell your teens they can’t go if what you hear about a particular party
makes you totally uncomfortable. First make sure that you’re not being unreasonable or
unnecessarily paranoid, but at the end of the day, you’re the parent and your word goes.
4. When you’re the one hosting the party
Make sure you have a large, preferably undercover area where everyone will fit and clearly
state the designated areas.
It’s best to allocate which loo you want them to use. Even with the best of intentions, some
guests may overindulge, and this may result in throwing up or missing the loo seat, so in the
interests of keeping stress levels down, restrict them to where you’d like them to go.
Control the number of guests. Facebook invites are popular but risky as this can result in
hundreds of guests (and many strangers) so it’s worth implementing a policy upfront.
Provide something to eat in spite of what your offspring might be telling you.
Provide plenty of soft drinks. Don’t serve alcohol to underage kids, it’s against the law.
Consult your teen on every decision – and, even if you’re directing operations, make them
feel that their input counts and that plans are along the lines they’ve envisaged. Some points
are non-negotiable, and you need to list those early on in the process.
Agree what your booze policy will be and how you will enforce it. Some parents man the gate
and search every arrival, pouring out any unwelcome contents. Others just float around,
surreptitiously sussing out whether alcohol is posing a problem, and deal with it if found.
Do not leave the premises during the party – you are responsible for other people's children.
Relax and look forward to the party – and let your teens see your enthusiasm. Many of them
will be in a state of anxiety ahead of the event, hoping that it’ll be declared a great success, and
cringing in fear of no one coming. De-stress them with your words and actions, and help them
to set the scene for an enjoyable evening.
Treasure the chance to host your teens’ friends in your home. Even though you may not
get to meet too many individuals in the throng, your teen can feel proud of hosting everyone on
his or her home turf, and you get to know more about their friends.

7. 6) JARYD PAYNE (PAST PUPIL) – MISSING AT SEA
The families of Anthony Murray, Reginald Robertson and Jaryd Payne are raising funds
http://www.gofundme.com/t2md9s to locate, properly examine for survivors, secure and bring to port
the upturned catamaran hull that has been sighted in the Indian Ocean – most recently on 5 June
2015, 552NM SE from Reunion Island.
Experts advise the families that this is almost certainly Moorings A5130, the Leopard catamaran that
was on a delivery trip to Phuket from Cape Town when all contact was lost with the crew on
18 January, at the time of Cyclone Bansi.
The families of Anthony, Reg, and Jaryd have been driving the search for their loved ones for over
four months, via a Facebook group and a Tomnod campaign, and with the help of official broadcasts
to all ships in the area of drift as designated by the maritime authorities of South Africa and Australia.
This campaign is to raise funds to urgently establish if the three yachtsmen are alive in the hull or if
the life-raft was deployed. The funds will also be used to properly bring the yacht to shore for
investigation and examination by authorities, as well as for any legal costs that arise, for the families
out of this traumatic and ongoing incident.

Reg Robertson, Anthony Murray and Jaryd Payne’s arrival in Thailand is long overdue. The
trio set sail to deliver a catamaran in Thailand and their expected date of arrival was 2
February 2015.

8. 7) LIBRARIAN’S CHOICE
THE LAST ROAD TRIP
by GARETH CROCKER
Following the death of a man they barely knew, five friends decide
to make the most of what’s left of their lives. Abandoning the
humdrum routine at their retirement estate, they embark on a
thousand-mile road trip that takes them from the furthest corner of
the Kruger Park to the blazing stars of Sutherland for the biggest
adventure of their lives and one last hurrah together. Along the way,
they rediscover things about themselves that they thought had long
since been lost. Above all, they discover that it’s never too late to start
living.
