To all the mental health professionals:When I entered college to undertake the education required to become a social worker as I wanted to help those in a difficult position. Very early on the Professor stood in front of the class and said the following "As a mental health position you are obligated to treat whoever presents themselves in front of you regardless of the diagnosis or your personal opinions and beliefs. If you are unable to see past the problem and see the human being who needs help then you need to find a different profession". A number of people raised their hands and expressed concern about treating pedophiles, sexual deviants and people with psychopathic behavior. The professor quickly replied a human being with a mental illness is still a human being who deserves the best quality of care that a worker can provide.A diagnosis is just a tool that is not being used effectively in too many different offices and hospitals across the world. A specific diagnosis is to be

I have included an obituary of Jim Reddell for a number of reasons, he was a dying breed in the British Labour Party, working class, trade unionist, absolutely loyal to the Party and Country through thick and thin, conservative with a small c, yet well to the left of most of todays Labour MPs. The likes of Jim were to be found in almost every Constituency LP in the land, up until Tony Blair became leader that is. Hard working, first rate local councillors who new the people they represented like the back of their hand, in their time they sorted out more personal problems than the average CAB advisor of today. Yet Blair and his ilk had no use for them and moved them aside to make way for middle class New Labour wide-boys/girls who were passing through and had no interest in the people that Labour had been founded to represent. Indeed alongside the demise of the likes of Jim Reddell came the demise of the British Labour Party as a vehicle for progressive changeI will also admit to a pe

I like to blog; because I can earn money from it, I can meet a lot of friends from it, I can improve my writing skills from it, I can get the world’s latest news from it; and the most important part is, I can control it. How many times have you ever think of becoming your own boss in your own life? I’ve thought a lot about it. However, for now of course, I’m still a tiny worker working for people.Well, I’m not saying that working life is not good. At least, it helps us to know more about the outside world. What’s the market needs now? What area we need to improve? What is our strength? And what we are looking for actually? Many people trying to start their own business right after they’ve graduated and facts show that most of them failed. I got friend trying to make money from selling DVDs, and before he start to earn, he spent thousands of RM. I did try to build up my own computer distributing business in KL on 2007, but I failed; because I don’t have “kang tao” to g

A new coalition of 121 Indian non-governmental organisations (NGOs) has called for a "policy of inclusion" to ensure the community's participation in all levels of the decision-making process. It has appealed to set up a non-political independent task force to initiate programmes including a moratorium on the demolition of places of worship, education, economic and employment opportunities. The coalition's chairman, Datuk A. Vaithilingam, said the organisations also called for the setting-up of a community development fund to be managed by the task force to provide incentives and implement community empowerment programmes. "We have submitted a preliminary statement comprising of urgent reforms for disadvantaged Indian-Malaysians directly to the Prime Minister's Office last Friday," he said. "The coalition is confident that these proposals will receive due consideration, and look forward to seeing its immediate implementation because we want all parties to w
Works Minister and president of the Malaysian Indian Congress (MIC), Seri S. Samy Vellu, has said that the party will be reorganised to make it more effective and efficient in meeting the needs and demands of the Indian community. He said the 62-year-old party would undergo a "cleaning exercise" to make it more relevant to Indians. "The party will change its course to move more effectively to resolve the problems facing the community," the Star Online quoted Vellu, as saying. Vellu said although the methods adopted by the MIC have been successful in resolving the community’s woes, a more concerted effort was needed for the "more difficult and sensitive problems." "The people’s expectations have changed and we also need to make changes to remain relevant. We will work in a manner that will benefit the community," he said. "The creation of more Indian graduates will be our main objective in 2008," he said, adding that the

Dear all, I’ve finally made up my mind and launched my second English blog called BB Community. This time, I am using free Wordpress.com host and the link is http://bbcommunity.wordpress.com/. My idea of the blog is to share my knowledge to bloggers who really want to make money blogging. I am trying to make it a one-stop information station for bloggers who are interested in blog-for-money kinds of programs. The most important thing is, I will not put any ads or pay-per-posts in this blog; and of course, I will not earn any money from it. I hope my idea on sharing blogging knowledge will contribute something to the blogosphere, especially to fresh bloggers. Someone have to do something to help out. Support me?Last but not least, I will keep working hard for BB Market Place. No, there are no reasons for me to abandon this blog. This is a place where I learned and got helps from all of you. You all are my strengths to success. I wouldn’t make it this far without you guys! Let’s im
Britain’s first Muslim minister has told young Asians that England is the best country in the world for Muslims to grow up and live in. Shahid Malik - the International Development Secretary, urged Muslims to embrace the national flag and celebrate their Englishness, as this would demonstrate their patriotism and deal a massive blow to Islamic extremists and preachers of hate. "My message to young Muslims is be proud to be English and don't let anyone steal your identity. This is one of the greatest nations in the world and we should be proud to live here - let's shout about it a bit more. There is no other country in the world I would rather be. The rights and freedoms we enjoy are better than any country in the world for Muslims, better than any country in the Islamic world,” The Sun quoted Malik, as saying. The tolerance and sense of fair play shown by Britain to Muslims should be reciprocated by a zero tolerance of hate-fuelled Islamic views, Malik said. (ANI

Hamburg (medien-news) - Anfang Dezember 2007 startete das Online Gamer-Portal "rawgamer" offiziell eine mehrmonatige Beta-Phase. Unter der Internetadresse www.rawgamer.de findet der passionierte Computerspieler zahlreiche Möglichkeiten, sich mit Gleichgesinnten über alle erdenklichen Computer- und Videospiel-Themen auszutauschen. Zum Start verfügt die Community bereits über 15000 Spiele aus drei Dekaden. Mit den Spiele-Legenden der jüngeren Vergangenheit versteht sich rawgamer auch als ein Game-Museum. Die Hauptrolle spielen aber aktuelle Titel für PC und Konsolen.
"rawgamer" verbindet die klassische, informative Website mit den Funktionen einer modernen Social Community. Die Mitglieder sind stark in die Mitgestaltung des Angebotes eingebunden, laden Screenshots hoch, bewerten Spiele und tauschen sich aktiv über die Plattform aus.
Die beliebtesten Community Funktionen sind:

Die Hamburger Technologie-Agentur "INSTANTSOUP Media GmbH" bringt den Spaß des Speed-Datings ins heimische Wohnzimmer
Hamburg (medien-news) - Endlich ist es möglich, Speed-Dating auch vom Sofa aus zu erleben. Das Prinzip von "Meetya.com" unter der Internetadresse http://www.meetya.com ist einfach. Man trifft sich in Online-Events, den so genannten Meetyas. Ein Meetya dauert in der Regel eine Stunde. Im 7-Minuten-Takt werden dem Teilnehmer laufend neue Gesprächspartner vorgestellt. Diese Zeit muss reichen, um sich zu präsentieren und einen guten ersten Eindruck zu erzeugen. Im Anschluss entscheiden die Teilnehmer, ob sie ihr Gegenüber wiedersehen möchten oder nicht. Im Falle beiderseitiger Sympathie wird ein Kontakt hergestellt, ansonsten sieht man sich nie wieder.
"Wie im richtigen Leben gilt hier das Sehen und Gesehenwerden. Wer aufeinander trifft, ist zufällig, und was daraus wird, kann man kaum vorhersehen. Darin liegt der Reiz von Meetya." meint Geschäftsführer Paul Wa

One of the challenges online marketers face is getting their message out in social networks, forums and so forth without coming across as spammers or desperate!This week sees the launch of Zion5. This site will give business people who operate online the opportunity to network legitimately with others who are interested in business opportunities be they in network marketing, affiliate products, e-books, off-line opportunities or a myriad of other options.The official launch of Zion5 is 9nd December 2007 . The top 100 members that have the most referrals at the time of launch will automatically get boosted to the top of the uplines ** FOR LIFE **.That means that the top 100 people will control everything that happens in Zion 5.Zion5 promotes themselves with this phrase : This is Facebook for online money makers. Build contacts, send messages and promote your websites all in one place!One of the biggest plus factors for me is the messaging system. Users can send their info to others thro

Documentarian and filmmaker Ken Burns, creator of The War and 19 other films about American history, told an overflow audience at Bunker Hill Community College today that wars too often happen when nations forget "to listen to history." Burns spoke as part of the College's Compelling Conversations speaker series.Describing his exploration of World War II as "a tour of hell," Burns told the audience that he had avoided making a documentary about the Second World War until two statistics changed his mind. The first was that 1,000 veterans of World War II are now dying every day, taking their personal experience of the war with them. The second was that a significant number of American high school seniors in a recent survey thought the United States had fought with Germany against Russia in World War II."I was concerned that we were losing both our veterans and our historic compass," Burns said. In choosing to tell the story of the most destructive war in history, in which 60 million peop

Animal rights group People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals has demanded an immediate closure of a Web community that "instigates violence" towards dogs.In a letter to the Union Information and Technology secretary, the organisation has urged the Central government to direct Google to block "some illegal and cruel content posted on its social networking site Orkut.""We have also requested him to initiate appropriate action against the members who claimed to have committed acts in violation of Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (Act) 1960," PETA-India coordinator (Campaigns and Legal Affairs) N G Jayasimha told.In fact, the letter followed after PETA spotted topics on Orkut community on 'I hate dogs', which discussed 'How 2 kill a dog?'.Through the discussion, PETA volunteers figured out that one of the members of the community "suggests killing of puppies by dropping them from a building" and also "admits to throwing three puppies", another member claims, "I have killed two by my car
Here's a new social site 'iContactCommunity' that I'm just getting to grips with...It seems to be a massive resource with thousands of online articles, some are newsletters, some are more like adverts. I am reminded initially of 'Digg' as you get to vote on your favourite articles, but it is also like 'sqidoo' in that your articles are hosted online rather than on your own website or blog. You also get to drop comments against the articles too. I think it would certainly be worth investigating as a place to promote a website or blog, or just get your opinion out there...The articles themselves are wide and varied, for instance I am interested in Premier League football, so I entered the term 'Premier League' and the top result was a simple two-line post about the Man United Arsenal match last week.I clicked on the art section and discovered something startling: an art event where 'Mr Matisse will be painting during the evening...'. Now as far as I can work out Henri Matisse should be a
