Radiator Valves
AEL Radiator Valves are manufactured to UK and European standards EN215 & ISO9001 so not only do our valves provide a professional finish to any installation they are assembled and tested in a quality controlled environment dedicated to producing radiator valves in traditional and modern styles with thermostatic or manual control in various colours that can accommodate any pipework configuration to provide that professional finishing touch to your choice of radiator.
All our Radiator Valves are tolerance tested to open and close as the specification requires so each valve will control the correct flow of hot water into the radiator.
The amount of hot water flow that will be allowed through a Thermostatic Radiator Valve into the radiator will depend on how close the pre-setting of the temperature dial on the valve head is to the actual temperature of the room. Each TRV has a safety frost setting that allows water to pass to help avoid freezing of the water in the pipework or radiator.
The Manual radiator valves operate just like a tap because the flow of water into the radiator is controlled by how much the valve head has been turned open or closed, you simply set the valve head position by hand until the radiator is giving the amount of heat required for your room.

Pets Can Teach Children How to Nurture and Care
|Children Develop Caregiving Skills with Pets
Children in homes with pets have great opportunities to develop critical caregiving abilities and social skills. When children are encouraged to participate in caring for family pets at age appropriate levels they can begin to learn how to nurture and care for others.
Pets are not threatening and can be stress reducers for children. Providing simple care based on a child's individual abilities will sow seeds of joy and responsibility.
Caring for pets is a neutral activity that is almost always a good fit for children. Use these tips:
Check with your veterinarian for more ideas to create the best home for your pets.
Gail Melson, author of Why the Wild Things Are: Animals in the Lives of Children has been watching animals and children for some time. She estimates that of every ten children, four grow up in a home that includes domestic animals. She has determined that as many as 90 percent of all youngsters live with a pet at some point during their childhood.
Living with pets and caring for them can teach both boys and girls great lessons.
Young girls are usually encouraged to play with dolls and play house. Girls learn to care and often actively begin tending to others in the home before the age of eight. Girls will play dress-up with their animals, dolls and siblings. Later, girls may become babysitters in their home or neighborhood. The social and caregiving skills learned in these activities are useful to girls throughout their lives.
"Nurturing animals is especially important for boys," Melson says. Young boys are usually not encouraged similarly and may miss out on the opportunity to learn caregiving skills. Balls, cars and sports typically occupy the interest of young boys. Boys can care for pets in their home without fear of criticism or reproach; they are merely caring for their dog, cat, hamster or other animal. Actually providing the care becomes the only issue and boys are able to feel comfortable with nurturing. Taking care of an animal is not gender specific and both boys and girls can always remain equally involved.
"Nurturing isn't a quality that suddenly appears in adulthood when we need it," Dr. Melson advises. "And you don't learn to nurture because you were nurtured as a child. People need a way to practice being caregivers when they're young." Household pets provide frequent opportunities for young boys and girls to develop nurturing habits. Caregiving for animals teaches them responsibility for seeing that the family dog or cat receives fresh water and food at certain times throughout the day.
Children can provide simple care from a very young age and fill greater needs as their abilities allow. Caring for the family pets can also help children expand their sense of self awareness and develop an awareness about other people, time or space. Children will also to develop their ability to anticipate needs.
Helping your child to become responsible for pets in your home needs to occur on a step-by-step basis. The process must be implemented according to your child's cognitive abilities and physical abilities. Remember that each child is different and has different levels of capabilities when you begin talking to them about caring for your household pets.
When your child is the responsible party for providing care for a pet in your home, always remember that you'll still need to keep your eye on the water dishes, food bowls, walks and potty trips. You may find it necessary to provide gentle reminders for your child. Creating happy notes and making simple awards like stickers, stars or allowing extra playtime will make the transition more fun for your child. Involving the whole family to encourage your child will increase his or her success and enjoyment.

Cat Diabetes
What is Cat Diabetes?
Diabetes mellitus, the clinical name for "sugar diabetes," is a condition that affects the concentration of glucose, a type of sugar, in a cat's blood. Diabetes in cats is rarely the result of a shortage of insulin (Type I Diabetes). More commonly, diabetes results when a cat's body has trouble using the insulin it has made properly (Type II Diabetes).
Insulin affects the way a cat's body uses food. When a cat eats, food is broken down into very small components that the body can use. One component, carbohydrate, is converted into several types of sugars, including glucose. Glucose is absorbed from the intestines into the blood. Once in the bloodstream, glucose travels to cells where it can be absorbed and used as a source of energy-if insulin is present. Without enough insulin, glucose can't enter cells and builds up in the bloodstream. So a cat may act hungry all the time and eat constantly, but still lose weight because its cells can't absorb glucose.
Most cats develop Type II Diabetes, in which their cells no longer respond normally to the amounts of insulin produced by the pancreas. While many cats initially require daily insulin injections, the treatment goal is to correct the factors or conditions causing insulin resistance. If these factors, such as obesity, can be adequately controlled, many cats will experience temporary remission or permanent resolution of their diabetes. Many cats with Type II Diabetes will experience marked improvement in their insulin sensitivity when changed to a species-appropriate high protein, low carbohydrate food. However, not all cats with diabetes are suited to this type of diet. Your veterinarian will conduct a thorough evaluation and recommend the most appropriate diet and treatment for your cat's diabetes.
Diabetes Risk Factors for Cats
- Older Cats
- Neutered Male Cats
- Obesity
- Physical Inactivity
- Medications (Steroids and Progestins)
If you think your cat may be at risk, make an appointment today to get your cat checked for diabetes.
We're here to help! Visit VCApetdiabetes.com to watch a video on how to give an insulin injection, monitor blood glucose with our eDiary, find expert advice and get support from our interactive community to help manage your cat's diabetes.
Diagnosis and Detection
Diabetes is one of many conditions that can affect your cat and cause visible changes in behavior and other signs. That's why it's important your cat be thoroughly examined by a veterinarian at least once a year or more frequently, if your veterinarian advises.
Knowing the signs of diabetes is the first step in protecting your cat's health. If any of these statements describes your cat, speak with your veterinarian about the possibility of diabetes:
- Drinks more water than usual (polydipsia)
- Urinates more frequently, produces more urine per day, or has "accidents" outside the litter box (polyuria)
- Always acts hungry (polyphagia), but maintains or loses weight
- Is less active or sleeps more (lethargic)
- Has thinning, dry, or dull hair
When evaluating your cat for diabetes, your veterinarian may ask about these signs and will check your cat's general health to rule out the possibility of other conditions or infections.
A sample of your cat's urine may be tested first for the presence of glucose, ketones, and/or a urinary tract infection. If glucose is present in your cat's urine, your veterinarian will want to determine your cat's blood glucose concentration and fructosamine concentration. If the blood glucose concentration is consistently higher than normal, your cat's pancreas may not be secreting enough insulin or your cat's body is "resistant" to the insulin being produced. Regardless of the cause for increased blood sugar, your pet is suffering from diabetes mellitus.
A diabetes diagnosis is considered definite when glucose is found at a persistently high concentration in blood and in urine.
After the Diagnosis
It can initially be overwhelming when your cat is diagnosed with diabetes. Diabetes is a condition that you can manage successfully and your VCA veterinarian is here to help. Once the diagnosis has been made, ask your veterinarian to schedule a specific "diabetes appointment" during which you can discuss all of your questions or concerns. During this appointment, make sure to address the following topics with your VCA veterinarian:
- Diet–determining the best type of food for your cat. Cats, as carnivores, often have significant improvement in their blood sugar levels when placed on a high protein, low carbohydrate food. This is also the perfect time to address weight loss if your cat is overweight or obese.
- Insulin–how to store and administer it properly
- Hypoglycemia–how to identify and treat potentially life-threatening low blood sugar
- At-home monitoring you should perform and when you should alert your veterinarian. Ask how you should monitor your cat for the possibility of diabetes remission
- Recommended veterinary rechecks
For more information on the types of feline diabetes, please read:
- Diabetes Mellitus in Cats
Diabetes Mellitus is a disease of the pancreas. In simple terms, it is caused by the failure of the pancreas to regulate blood sugar. Click on the link to learn more.
- Diabetes in Cats – Testing and Monitoring
There are several recommended tests to have done on your cat when Diabetes Mellitus is suspected. Cats can live happily and healthfully with diabetes if proper monitoring is performed by you at home and your cat has regularly scheduled visits with your veterinarian. For the best monitoring of a diabetic cat and the highest chance of diabetic remission, blood glucose can be checked by you at home. Ask your veterinarian if this monitoring approach might be right for you and your cat. Click on the link to learn more.

Egypt's draft charter gets 'yes' majority in vote
- Low turnout may feed a perception of illegitimacy for the constitution
- Saturday's vote comes a day after clashes between supporters and opponents Morsi
- First phase on Dec. 15 produced a "yes" majority of about 56%
CAIRO (AP) — Egypt's Islamist-backed constitution received a "yes" majority in a final round of voting on a referendum that saw a low voter turnout, but the deep divisions it has opened up threaten to fuel continued turmoil.
Passage is a victory for Islamist President Mohammed Morsi, but a costly one. The bruising battle over the past month stripped away hope that the long-awaited constitution would bring a national consensus on the path Egypt will take after shedding its autocratic ruler Hosni Mubarak nearly two years ago.
Instead, Morsi disillusioned many non-Islamists who had once backed him and has become more reliant on his core support in the Muslim Brotherhood and other Islamists. Hard-liners in his camp are determined to implement provisions for stricter rule by Islamic law in the charter, which is likely to further fuel divisions.
Saturday's voting in 17 of Egypt's 27 provinces was the second and final round of the referendum. Preliminary results released early Sunday by Morsi's Muslim Brotherhood showed that 71.4 percent of those who voted Saturday said "yes" after 95.5 percent of the ballots were counted. Only about eight million of the 25 million Egyptians eligible to vote — a turnout of about 30 percent — cast their ballots. The Brotherhood has accurately predicted election results in the past by tallying results provided by its representatives at polling centers.
In the first round of voting, about 56 percent said "yes" to the charter. The turnout then was about 32 percent.
The results of the two rounds mean the referendum was approved by about 63 percent.
Morsi's liberal and secular opposition now faces the task of trying to organize the significant portion of the population angered by what it sees as attempts by Morsi and the Brotherhood to gain a lock on political power. The main opposition group, the National Salvation Front, said it would now start rallying for elections for the lawmaking, lower house of parliament, expected early next year.
"We feel more empowered because of the referendum. We proved that at least we are half of society (that) doesn't approve of all this. We will build on it," the Front's spokesman, Khaled Daoud, said. Still, he said, there was "no appetite" at the moment for further street protests.
The new constitution would come into effect once official results are announced, expected in several days. When they are, Morsi is expected to call for the election of parliament's lawmaking, lower chamber no more than two months later.
In a sign of disarray in Morsi's administration, his vice president and — possibly — the central bank governor resigned during Saturday's voting. Vice President Mahmoud Mekki's resignation had been expected since his post is eliminated under the new constitution. But its hasty submission even before the charter has been sealed and his own resignation statement suggested it was linked to Morsi's policies.
"I have realized a while ago that the nature of politics don't suit my professional background as a judge," his resignation letter, read on state TV, said. Mekki said he had first submitted his resignation last month but events forced him to stay on.
The status of Central Bank Governor Farouq el-Oqdah was murkier. State TV first reported his resignation, then soon after reported the Cabinet denied he has stepped down in a possible sign of confusion. El-Oqdah, in his post since 2003, has reportedly been seeking to step down but the administration was trying to convince him to stay on.
The confusion over el-Oqdah's status comes at a time when the government is eager to show some stability in the economy as the Egyptian pound has been sliding and a much-needed $4.8 billion loan from the IMF has been postponed.
Over the past month, seven of Morsi's 17 top advisers and the one Christian among his top four aides resigned. Like Mekki, they said they had never been consulted in advance on any of the president's moves, including his Nov. 22 decrees, since rescinded, that granted himself near absolute powers.
Those decrees sparked large street protests by hundreds of thousands around the country, bringing counter-rallies by Islamists. The turmoil was further fueled with a Constituent Assembly almost entirely made up of Islamists finalized the constitution draft in the dead of night amid a boycott by liberals and Christians. Rallies turned violent. Brotherhood offices were attacked, and Islamists attacked an opposition sit-in outside the presidential palace in Cairo leading to clashes that left 10 dead.
The turmoil opened up a vein of bitterness that the polarizing constitution will do little to close. Morsi opponents accused him of seeking to create a new Mubarak-style autocracy. The Brotherhood accused his rivals of being former Mubarak officials trying to topple an elected president and return to power. Islamists branded opponents "infidels" and vowed they will never accept anything but "God's law" in Egypt.
Both rounds of voting saw claims by the opposition and rights groups of voting violations. On Saturday, they said violations ranged from polling stations opening late to Islamists seeking to influence voters to say "yes." The official MENA news agency said at least two judges have been removed for coercing voters to cast "yes" ballots.
The opposition's talk of now taking the contest to the parliamentary elections represented a shift in the conflict — an implicit gamble that the opposition can try to compete under rules that the Islamists have set. The Brotherhood's electoral machine has been one of its strongest tools since Mubarak's fall, while liberal and secular parties have been divided and failed to create a grassroots network.
In the first post-Mubarak parliamentary elections last winter, the Brotherhood and ultraconservative Salafis won more than 70 percent of seats in the lower chamber, which was later dissolved by a court order. The opposition is now betting it can do better with the anger over Morsi's performance so far.
The schism in a country that has for decades seen its institutions function behind a facade of stability was on display in Saturday's lines of voters.
In the village of Ikhsas in the Giza countryside south of Cairo, an elderly man who voted "no" screamed in the polling station that the charter is "a Brotherhood constitution."
"We want a constitution in the interest of Egypt. We want a constitution that serves everyone, not just the Brotherhood. They can't keep fooling the people," Ali Hassan, a 68-year-old wearing traditional robes, said.
But others were drawn by the hope that a constitution would finally bring some stability after nearly two years of tumultuous transitional politics. There appeared to be a broad economic split, with many of the middle and upper classes rejecting the charter and the poor voting "yes" — though the division was not always clear-cut.
In Ikhsas, Hassan Kamel, a 49-year-old day worker, said "We the poor will pay the price" of a no vote.
He dismissed the opposition leadership as elite and out of touch. "Show me an office for any of those parties that say no here in Ikhsas or south of Cairo. They are not connecting with people."
In the industrial working class district of Shubra El-Kheima just north of Cairo, women argued while waiting in line over the draft charter.
Samira Saad, a 55 year-old-housewife, said she wanted her five boys to find jobs.
"We want to get on with things and we want things to be better," she said.
Nahed Nessim, a Christian, questioned the integrity of the process. "There is a lot of corruption. My vote won't count." She was taken to task by Muslim women wearing the niqab, which blankets the entire body and leaves only the eyes visible and is worn by ultraconservative women.
"We have a president who fears God and memorizes His words. Why are we not giving him a chance until he stands on his feet?" said one of the women, Faiza Mehana, 48.
The promise of stability even drew one Christian woman in Fayoum, southwest of Cairo, to vote "yes" — a break with most Christians nationwide who oppose the draft. Hanaa Zaki said she wanted an end to Egypt's deepening economic woes.
"I have a son who didn't get paid for the past six months. We have been in this crisis for so long and we are fed up," said Zaki, waiting in line along with bearded Muslim men and Muslim women wearing headscarves in Fayoum, a province that is home to both a large Christian community and a strong Islamist movement.
The scene In Giza's upscale Mohandiseen neighborhood was starkly different.
A group of 12 women speaking to each other in a mix of French, Arabic and English said they were all voting "no."
"It's not about Christian versus Muslim, it is Muslim Brotherhood versus everyone else," said one of them, Shahira Sadeq, a Christian physician.
Kamla el-Tantawi, 65, said she was voting "against what I'm seeing" — and she gestured at a woman nearby wearing the niqab.
"I lose sleep thinking about my grandchildren and their future. They never saw the beautiful Egypt we did," she said, harkening back to a time decades ago when few women even wore headscarves covering their hair, much less the black niqab.
Many voters were under no illusions the turmoil would end.
"I don't trust the Brotherhood anymore and I don't trust the opposition either. We are forgotten, the most miserable and the first to suffer," said Azouz Ayesh, sitting with his neighbors as their cattle grazed in a nearby field in the Fayoum countryside.
He said a "yes" would bring stability and a "no" would mean no stability. But, he added, "I will vote against this constitution."

The latest in a series of occasional posts on books I didn't finish and why I didn't finish them
Title: Bacardi and the Long Fight for Cuba: The Biography of a Cause. By Tom Gjelten. Viking, 413 pp., $27.95.
What it is: A history of the Bacardi rum family, intertwined with that of Cuba, from its founding in 1862 through Fidel Castro's resignation and his brother Raúl's succession in February 2008.
How much I read: About 40 pages: the preface, last chapter, acknowledgments, and other parts, including those about Ernest Hemingway and the Bay of Pigs disaster.
Why I stopped reading: Not many books about successful businesses give a rich social, historical and human context for the stories they tell. Gjelten aims to do that in Bacardi and the Long Fight for Cuba. And he succeeded in the sections I read: They were interesting and well-written and may help to nudge this book onto some "best of the year" lists. I didn't have enough interest in rum and Cuba to spend eight or nine hours with the story, the amount of time it might take me to read 400 pages. But I'd consider giving this book as a gift to a fan of serious, thoughtful nonfiction about recent history or international affairs.
Best line in what I read: The first: "A bottle of white Bacardi rum sold in the United States bears a small logo – mysteriously, a bat – and a label that says 'Established 1862.' Just above the dates are the words 'PUERTO RICAN RUM.' There is no mention of Cuba.
"The Bacardi distillery in San Juan is the largest in the world, but the Bacardis are not from Puerto Rico. This family company for nearly a century was Cuban, cubanissima in fact – Cuban to the n th degree."
Worst line in what I read: Gjelten says that when Fidel Castro collapsed at an outdoor rally in June 2001, the Cuban foreign minister shouted to the crowd, "¡Calma y valor!" He translates this as, "Stay calm and be brave!" Why not just "Calm and brave!"? And Gjelten ends by commenting on a Bacardi family member's 1907 view that Cuba needed a leader "who is just and truly loves his country": "A century later, Cuba needed that leader more than ever." "More than ever" is a cliché that's fine in everyday conversation but weakens the ending of a book. And the problem with most dictators isn't that they don't love their countries – it's that they love them too much and value them above other things that are equally important, including human rights.

Cypriot turmoil holds markets at ransom
Europe braced for renewed turmoil as outrage in Cyprus over an unprecedented levy on bank deposits threatened to derail the nation's bailout. European shares and the euro tumbled.
Cypriot President Nicos Anastasiades, who bowed to demands by euro-area finance ministers to raise 5.8 billion euros by taking a piece of every bank account in Cyprus, appealed to lawmakers in Nicosia to ratify the levy on Monday. The vote was delayed from Sunday over the opposition of the European Central Bank amid talks to restructure the tax.
While Cyprus accounts for less than half a percent of the 17-nation euro economy, the raid on bank accounts risks triggering new convulsions in the financial crisis that began in 2009 in Greece.
Moody's Investors Service said that the move is a significant step toward limiting support for bank creditors across Europe and shows that policy makers will risk financial- market disruptions to avoid sovereign defaults.
The tax is "a worrying precedent with potentially systemic consequences if depositors in other periphery countries fear a similar treatment in the future," Joachim Fels, chief economist at Morgan Stanley in London, wrote in a client note.
Scenes of Cypriots lining up at cash machines raised the specter of capital flight elsewhere and threatened to disrupt a market calm since the ECB's pledge in September to backstop troubled nations' debt.
With no government in Italy, Spain in the throes of a political scandal and Greece struggling to meet the terms of its own bailout, more turmoil could hamper efforts to end the crisis.
The Euro Stoxx 50 Index fell 1.6 percent and the euro slid as much as 1.9 percent; the currency was trading at $1.2960, down 0.9 percent at 9.45 a.m. local time in Frankfurt (10.45 a.m. Greek time).
Borrowing costs in other debt-strapped nations rose. Italian 10-year bond yields climbed 13 basis points to 4.73 percent, adding to last week's 10 basis point climb. The rate on similar-maturity Spanish yields jumped 14 basis points to 5.06 percent, while Germany led gains among higher-rated nations' securities.
"Traders and investors are aghast as these measures,» Michael McCarthy, a chief market strategist at CMC Markets in Sydney, told Bloomberg Television.
Anastasiades exhorted political factions to support the deposit levy, which he pledged is a one-off measure that will avert a collapse of the financial system that in turn would have led to the country's exit from the euro.
"A bank collapse would cause indescribable misery,» Anastasiades said in the televised address. He called the crisis the country's worst moment since the 1974 Turkish invasion that has left the country divided.
In a bid to ease a run on banks, depositors who keep their account for two years will receive securities linked to future revenue from the country's gas reserves, the president said.
He said he would also seek to soften the impact on savers. The potential changes include taxing deposits less than 100,000 euros at a 3 percent rate, while setting the levy at 10 percent between 100,000 euros and 500,000 euros and at 12 percent for deposits greater than that, Cyprus's Antenna TV reported, without saying how it got the information.
The levy – as of now 6.75 percent of all deposits up to 100,000 euros and 9.9 percent above that – whittled the euro- area's bailout of Cyprus to 10 billion euros, down from an original figure of about 17 billion euros, near the size of the nation's 18 billion-euro economy.
"Obviously, people would have prefered to pay nothing, but it's a better deal than it could have been,» said Marshall Gittler, head of global foreign-exchange strategy at Limassol, Cyprus-based IronFX.
"It's unusual to ask depositors to take a hit, but if they hadn't then the hit would have fallen uniquely on Cypriot taxpayers, so in a sense it's fairer."
Cyprus is considering changing the structure of the taxes to charge big depositors more and small account-holders less, a European official said. The European Commission, the IMF and the ECB would support that as long as the amount raised stayed the same, the official said.
The bank tax was the alternative to imposing losses on investors in a so-called bail-in, a step opposed by the Cypriot government, the European Commission and the ECB, German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble said on ARD television on Sunday night.
"It's up to them to explain it to the Cypriot people,» Schaeuble said.
"Clearly, the taxpayer should not be asked» to rescue banks from insolvency, he said, adding that Cyprus faced a «very difficult time» unless it accepts the tax.
Euro finance ministers reached agreement early on Saturday morning after 10 hours of talks. Cypriots awoke to find bank transfers already frozen as the government prepared to impose the tax before banks reopen on Tuesday.
Monday's bank holiday in Cyprus may be extended by at least one day, state-run broadcaster CyBC reported, without saying where it got the information.
Anastasiades, whose minority government took office less than three weeks ago, said the ECB would have stopped providing liquidity to one of the country's banks on Tuesday, leading to its collapse, he said.
The president will meet with lawmakers on Monday before parliament's session on the measure begins at 4 p.m. His DISY party holds 20 seats in the 56-seat legislature. The third-biggest faction, DIKO, which supported him in his February election, holds eight seats.
Cyprus's communist AKEL party, with 19 seats, plans to vote no.
Afxentis Afxentiou, the governor of Central Bank of Cyprus from 1982 until 2002, told CyBC that failure to enact the legislation «opens the road to chaos."
"Cyprus will turn into Libya,» Afxentiou said. «Even with the pain, we need to follow a normal course, with hope we'll see better days."
Jeroen Dijsselbloem of the Netherlands, who leads the group of euro-area finance ministers, sought to highlight the rescue package's "unique measures" that address the «exceptional nature» of Cyprus.
Its banking system's assets are about five times the size of the economy. Instead of targeting the country's wealthiest depositors, which include Russian billionaires, the tax also stings ordinary savers.
The ECB's pledge to buy bonds should prevail over market panic, though the tax on deposits brings the euro area into «uncharted territory again,» Holger Schmieding, chief economist at Berenberg Bank in London, wrote in a note.
"Given the fragile state of the banking systems, especially in Greece and Spain, anything that can impede the needed rebuilding of confidence in these banking systems can potentially cause financial and economic damage," he said.
In Cyprus, where a poll showed 71 percent of Cypriots said parliament should reject the levy, the immediate effects were on display. Many cash machines ran out of money, including cooperative bank ATMs, Erotokritos Chlorakiotis, the general manager of the Cooperative Central Bank, told CyBC.
A man in the coastal city of Limassol drove a bulldozer into a bank branch to protest the levy, CyBC reported.
At a cooperative-bank branch in the capital Nicosia, a sign informed customers that it was shut on instructions from the Central Bank of Cyprus.
Nicos Nicolaou, 57, said he hoped his deposits would not be affected.
"All my life I never had deposits in banks because I didn't trust them,» he said. «I only worked with co-ops."
Andreas Andreou, a 48-year-old public servant, said he felt betrayed by Anastasiades's concession.
"We voted for him to save us and instead he's disappointed us,» Andreou said.

We're all familiar with tales of social networking sites (SNSs) casting dark shadows over events leading up to a victim's suicide. Frequently the issues revolve around private encounters, moments and words that spread like wildfire once they've been introduced to the digital stage - often without the target's consent.
With the 21st-century ingenue Cyberbullying playing the lead role in each one of those dramas, we rarely hear examples of how social networking promotes a healthy mental state and even prevents suicide in some instances. Although the media continually make the connection, there is no conclusive evidence that cyberbullying causes suicide.
Social media and suicide prevention
We do youth a disservice by perpetually drawing a straight line between the two concepts of online harassment and self-murder. Continuing to make that association falsely communicates the message that there is no alternative escape from cyberbullying other than ending one's life, which can result in children making that fatal decision.
Adults should remember that youth connect emotionally and define relationships through their digital devices and web platforms. They acutely feel both rejection and connection via digital media.
According to a recent International Center for Media & the Public Affairs (ICMPA) study, "students around the world reported that being tethered to digital technology 24/7 is not just a habit, it is essential to the way they construct and manage their friendships and social lives."
It's crucial that we understand both the positive and negative sides of social media, thereby putting cyberbullying into context and appreciating its place amidst all of the benefits and opportunities that arise from digital connections.
To further this point, a growing body of research from the Australia-based Cooperative Research Centre for Young People, Technology, and Wellbeing (YAW-CRC) supports the idea that SNSs have a much more positive effect on relationships and mental well-being than most of us may be aware.
According to the YAW-CRC's The Benefit of Social Networking Services report:
There is a demonstrated positive relationship between young people's use of social networking services and self-esteem (...) It is also argued that a sense of community and belonging has the potential to promote young people's resilience, giving them the ability to successfully adapt to change and stressful events (...) overall, it appears that the social connections developed and fostered through SNS play an important role in promoting young people's well-being.
Although cyberbullying represents the seamier side of social networking, it's greatly outweighed by the support systems that youth develop online.
Too often it's said that friendships in virtual communities don't carry the same lasting loyalty and profound connectivity that real-world relationships hold. Statements like those diminish the value that young ones place on their online relationships and in the end miss the importance of social networking in fostering a sense of self-worth and belonging on this planet.
Things to remember
Marginalized children and teens need to hear from trusted sources that their lives are not over if they experience digital persecution from peers. And parents, mentors, and teachers should refer to resources (e.g., the Cyberbullying Research Center) to better understand social media's place in self-esteem development.
If you are concerned about yourself or a child who is being harassed online, intervention programs make all of the difference. For more information, please visit National Suicide Prevention Lifeline or the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration's (SAMHSA) What a Difference a Friend Makes website.

Bond reduced in case with a 1-year-old
A Benton Township man was able to spend Christmas with his family after his $300,000 cash or surety bond was reduced to $50,000 in connection with serious injuries inflicted upon a 1-year-old child.
Sean Paul Bauers, 23, has been released on bond, jail officials confirmed Monday. Bauers stood mute Dec. 18 to a charge of first-degree child abuse — punishable upon conviction by life in prison or any term of years. He is also punishable as a second-offense habitual offender.
Bauers had earlier waived a preliminary examination in 89th District Court and was segregated from other inmates in the Cheboygan County Jail for his own safety.
One-year-old Harlow Cole remains in a Grand Rapids rehabilitation facility and is expected to be a patient there for at least another month, family friends say.
Michigan State Police say they were called to the emergency room of McLaren Northern Michigan hospital at Cheboygan on Oct. 31 to investigate a complaint of suspected child abuse.
Alyssa Armbruster, 19, had brought in her 1-year-old son, Harlow Cole, for treatment on his first birthday after he was lethargic and barely awake following an extended sleep period that began in the late afternoon the day before.
Police say that Bauers had been caring for the child.
A court affidavit states Baby Harlow was examined by Dr. Thomas Charlton, who told police the child sustained numerous injuries that included trauma to the brain, spinal hemorrhaging, two fractured ribs and abusive bruising to the right side of the face, the left neck, the right chest and both sides of the back.
In addition, a red area on the child's back near the neck appeared to be a type of rug-burn.
After being transferred to McLaren's Petoskey Campus, the child was then airlifted to Devos Children's Hospital in Grand Rapids, Mich. The injuries were "not accidental trauma," in the physician's opinion.
Police say that Bauers admitted to shaking the baby "a handful of times," the affidavit states, including an episode of Oct. 29. Armbruster offered no opinion to police as to how the boy was injured, noting only that "he bruises easily."
Jury selection has been set for Feb. 12, with five days reserved for trial.

GoDaddy, one of the Internet's biggest webhosting providers, experienced technical difficulties on Monday that prevented many people from visiting sites that relied on the service for connectivity.
A little after 5 p.m. California time on Monday, company officials took to Twitter to say the outage was mostly resolved.
"Most customer hosted sites back online," the dispatch stated. "We're working out the last few kinks for our site & control centers. No customer data compromised."
Searches using the dig utility also indicated domain name system servers operated by GoDaddy competitor VeriSign were being used to resolve the godaddy.com domain name. Wired reported VeriSign was hosting GoDaddy's DNS servers, too, although Ars couldn't independently verify that. One reason GoDaddy might turn to VeriSign is to avail itself of functional domain-name-resolution services. VeriSign operates a denial-of-service mitigation service called iDefense, so another possibility is that GoDaddy is under attack and is turning to VeriSign for help blocking it.
Monday evening's update from GoDaddy came after it spent much of the day combating an outage that affected virtually every domain it hosted.
"We are aware of an issue affecting several services, including e-mail, our website and some customer websites," company officials wrote in a status update posted early Monday afternoon. "We understand your frustration. We want you to know that our team is investigating the source of the issue and is working to resolve it as quickly as possible."
"Update: Still working on it, but we're making progress," GoDaddy representatives wrote in a separate Twitter dispatch. "Some service has already been restored. Stick with us."
Anecdotal evidence suggests the outages aren't universal. GoDaddy's homepage, as well as GoDaddy-hosted sites such as tuCloud.com were inaccessible on Monday afternoon for two Ars reporters. One reporter was located in the UK and was using a custom domain name system lookup server, while the other was located on the United States east coast and used DNS servers provided by ISP RCN. Both of those sites worked fine for a separate Ars reporter located in California who was using OpenDNS, a free service that translates human-readable domain names into the IP addresses relied on by computers that route Internet traffic. There were widespread reports on Twitter and elsewhere from other users who also reported trouble reaching GoDaddy-hosted sites.
"We have a lot of customers who want to know why their whole internet world is down and yet their equipment is running just fine," Tony Kapela, vice president of data center and network services at managed hosting provider 5Nines.com, told Ars.
Shortly after this article was published, some people who previously reported site outages said they were no longer experiencing outages. Others reported precisely the opposite.
At publication time, there was no evidence to support claims that the outage was the result of a denial of service attack. The unverified claims came from someone who identified himself as a member of the Anonymous hacking collective. The North American Network Operators Group has yet to provide any evidence supporting or refuting claims a denial-of-service attack was responsible.
Article updated to add new details.

I appreciate this post from Steve Landsburg on Pigouvian models, Coasian models, and policies addressing external costs (and the comments are valuable too). The foil for his post is an Elizabeth Kolbert New Yorker column, in which she uses two examples to illustrate her argument in favor of a Pigouvian carbon tax — taxpayers foot the bill for the cops' efforts to fish a drunk guy out of the gutter, and the general public bears the cost of the guy who fills his gas tank to drive his gas guzzler. In both cases, she argues that a tax (on liquor and on gasoline) shifts the burden of the cost in beneficial ways that reduce deadweight loss.
Landsburg's main point is that we've learned more and moved on from Pigou's original model, notably in the way that Coase characterizes costs from interdependence of individual actions and outcomes as symmetric. Using Pigou's "polluter pays" logic treats one of the actions as having bad consequences, but as Landsburg notes, "… we now know that Pigou was wrong (although his insights laid the indispensable foundation for later, better insights)". The most valuable of those later, better insights come from Coase, who builds the reciprocal nature of costs into his model. When individual agents' actions and outcomes are interdependent, the actions of agent 1 change the outcomes of agent 2 … and vice versa. I also like how Landsburg analogizes Pigou:Coase as Newton:Einstein.
Another notable aspect of this post is the worthwhile link in the comments to a paper from Russ Sobel distinguishing between technological and pecuniary externalities — not all interdependencies lead to situations where there are uncompensated external costs that should be addressed.

Kent Bush: The origins of our independence
The Declaration of Independence didn't start a war.
The 13 American colonies began revolting against their British landlords a few years before. By July 4, 1776, the colonial militias had gained control of their borders and boundaries.
The Declaration of Independence was the Continental Congress's way of saying, "Let's do this!"
They knew the British had no intention of letting up on the unfair taxation of the colonies. They knew that the British were preparing their forces for a major push to put these outmanned American rebels in their place. They knew they were calling down the thunder when they signed that document that said, "We, therefore, the Representatives of the united States of America, in General Congress, Assembled, appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the Name, and by Authority of the good People of these Colonies, solemnly publish and declare, That these united Colonies are, and of Right ought to be Free and Independent States; that they are Absolved from all Allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political connection between them and the State of Great Britain, is and ought to be totally dissolved."
But they didn't care. The Declaration didn't start the war, but it did define what was at stake. Considering the resources available, the new Americans fought well. However, it wasn't as easy as we sometimes like to believe.
Even five years later, the British were able to resubjugate a few of the colonies, but thanks to other European countries wanting to see England lose part of its empire, the landlocked militias received some timely help from the French and Spanish and finally helped us level the playing field at sea and secured the victory.
France wanted to hurt England, and they did. But they spent themselves into huge debt helping with our revolution and tumbled into a revolution of their own soon afterward.
While bullets were still flying in the Revolutionary War, the Continental Congress wrote and ratified the Articles of Confederation. Less than a decade after fighting ended, the U.S. Constitution was written and ratified.
By 1791, the Bill of Rights was attached and the primary law of the land - that is still the basis and baseline for all of our laws - was in place.
It would have been impressive to create legislation of this magnitude once during the best of times. Our nation's founders managed to do it twice while the country was embroiled in a war for its independence.
Think about that when you find it hard to concentrate on a task at hand because your neighbor kids sit on the porch throwing one firecracker after another into a bucket full of water.

BUCK, TONY: Self-contained_underwater_breathing_Apparatus
Solo percussion, after the spirit of The Necks by Necks drummer Tony Buck. A slowly evolving and very satisfying non drum solo,. Drum solos are somehow directed, and tend to be technically and purposefully driven. This is rather an organic web of developing sound, seemingly driven by its own logic, the sound hoping that the player has the technique not to stand in it's way. This player does. And interestingly, because the technique is never the point, one notices how extraordinary Tony's technique is, not for itself but for its ability to do whatever the music needs.

Frequently Asked Questions About SCORE
SCORE provides expert guidance and assistance to thousands of start-up and existing businesses, just like you. Our goal is for you to receive the help you seek and be successful in your business.
Below you will find a few points that we believe may be helpful as you engage with your mentor.
What is SCORE?
SCORE, America's premier source of free and confidential small business advice for entrepreneurs and small businesses, is a nonprofit resource partner with the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA). We have over 300 SCORE offices across the country offering free business mentoring and low- or no-cost workshops.
For over 50 years, SCORE's thousands of working and retired business professionals have volunteered to support the success of small business nationwide. SCORE business mentoring is free and confidential.
How does your mentoring service work?
SCORE provides free business advice through our network of volunteer business experts. You can meet with a mentor online or face-to-face in a chapter near you. To request a mentor, visit www.score.org/find-mentor and search for a mentor by keyword, industry, location or expertise. If you prefer, we can also make a match for you based on your business question.
SCORE's experienced business mentors provide general business advice on every aspect of business planning, start-up, management and growth.
What can I expect from SCORE?
- SCORE will attempt to contact you at least 3 times via email or phone, or both, over the next 2 weeks. If you have not connected with a mentor at the end of this time, please contact email@example.com.
- SCORE mentoring services are provided at no cost to you, regardless of the number of times you visit a SCORE mentor.
- The discussion with your SCORE mentor is strictly confidential. Our mentors sign a Code of Ethics and Conduct that addresses the protection of your information and business idea.
- Your mentor will employ the SLATE methodology in your mentoring session, which stands for:
- Stop and Suspend Judgment
- Listen and Learn
- Assess and Analyze
- Test Ideas and Teach with Tools
- Expectation Setting and Encouraging the Dream
Your mentor's goal is to use their expertise to help you make sound decisions for your business.
- At the conclusion of your session, your mentor should ask "Did I help you today?" If you did not feel that you received valuable advice or assistance, please discuss this with your mentor. Our #1 goal is to provide you with a positive experience and help you with your business needs.
- SCORE will work to assign you to the perfect mentor, based on your need, industry, and location. If your initial mentor is not a good "fit" for you, we will work with you to locate another mentor. We have thousands of mentors across the country and no doubt do have the perfect person just for you. In this case, you may contact your local SCORE office or email@example.com to request a new mentor.
How can I maximize my experience with SCORE?
- Your mentor will likely recommend different services to better meet your needs, including a small group workshop or on-line materials, to accentuate mentoring. Take advantage as they are supplemental to the advice you are receiving.
- SCORE does not provide grants, business loans, CPA services, or legal services, but your mentor may be able to suggest outside resources to assist you in those areas. Keep an open mind about what you think you may need initially, and work with your mentor to try to find a solution.
- Your business is not built in a day. Similarly, you benefit most from SCORE by meeting with a mentor for more than a one-hour appointment. Before the conclusion of your initial session, your mentor (or someone from the local SCORE office) will schedule another appointment for you or assist you in finding the correct resource. You should meet with your mentor regularly to maximize your chances of success.
What do you expect from me?
- Our mentors are volunteers. Their time is given freely to help you and others achieve your goals and dreams with a small business venture. Out of respect of your time and our mentors' time, we ask that you follow through on any scheduled appointments or provide notice of a change.
- Both you and your mentor will work together to identify key areas to focus on to build to your business success. While your mentor will always be there to help you, they will not do the work for you. You are responsible for moving your business forward.
- After you first meet with your mentor, you will receive an electronic survey from SCORE office about our service. The survey will take you about 1 minute to complete. We ask for your feedback in order to continue to improve our service. Our Client Satisfaction Survey results are reviewed continuously at all levels in SCORE.
How do I become a mentor?
If interested in becoming one of our volunteer business mentors, visit www.score.org/volunteer and complete an application. Your application will be sent to the local SCORE leader for review. The SCORE leader will contact you for an interview and if volunteering seems a good fit for you and SCORE, you'll be asked to complete our training and onboarding process. This process includes a 3-month probationary period where you'll complete 2-3 online training modules, review and agree to our standard operating manual and code of ethics, shadow experienced mentors, and participate in team mentoring. In addition to mentoring, there are other roles for which you may volunteer, including workshop facilitator, community outreach, marketing and administrative roles. Each role requires an application, onboarding & training, and code of ethics agreement. Contact email@example.com for more information.
What qualifies SCORE volunteers to give business advice?
The key qualification SCORE mentors bring is real-world business experience. They are working and retired business owners, executives and managers who have been through the same challenges and decisions that many entrepreneurs are facing today.
In addition, SCORE teamed up with Deluxe Corporation to develop the Mentoring Methodology Training program for the orientation and certification of volunteer mentors. Designed by SCORE mentors and a panel of industry experts, the program gives new and experienced mentors access to proven tools and methods of success. It is these mentor tools and process that have resulted in the success of more than 56,000 new businesses and over 47,000 jobs created in 2014.
The Mentoring Methodology Training program is based on 5 key components represented by the acronym SLATE:
- Stop and Suspend Judgment
- Listen and Learn
- Assess and Analyze
- Test Ideas and Teach with Tools
- Expectation Setting and Encouraging the Dream
Working with a SCORE-certified mentor means personalized guidance and support from those who have "been there" and are equipped with the optimal tools to help others succeed too.
What if I'm not interested in being a mentor? Are there other ways I can help?
Absolutely! Contact your local chapter to discover what additional volunteer opportunities exist in your community. You may be able to help present a local workshop, participate on a marketing or fundraising committee, complete administrative tasks, or assist with community relations. Are you a college student looking for internships or volunteer hours? Contact your local chapter today and see how we can work together.
What resources are available on SCORE.org?
Since 1997, SCORE has offered a leading online business resource for entrepreneurs – www.score.org. This site is a comprehensive small business resource that includes SCORE's mentoring service. Entrepreneurs visit www.score.org/find-mentor to search a database of SCORE mentors or request a mentor match. SCORE's website also offers "how-to" guides, small business quizzes, online workshops, LIVE Webinars, and the SCORE Small Business Blog with info on current trends in entrepreneurship.
Are your workshops free?
All SCORE online workshops (available at www.score.org/take-workshop) are free of charge. You can register for a live webinar presented by a business expert, view a recorded webinar, or take an elearning course on a business topic. We also offer instructor-led workshops, roundtables, and events in your community. These are available for free or for a nominal fee. All funds received from the local workshops go back to supporting the chapter and development of new workshops, handouts, materials and other business resources.
