The Halal Certification Process
What is Halal and What is Haram?
What is the meaning of "Halal"?
Halal is an Arabic word meaning lawful. It refers to the things, actions and processes permitted by Islamic Shariah law without punishment imposed on the doer. It is usually used to describe something that a Muslim is permitted to engage in, e.g. eat, drink or use.
What is the meaning of "Haram"?
The opposite of halal is haram , which in Arabic is used for unlawful or prohibited.
What is classed as Haram?
All kinds of food are considered halal except the following, which are haram:
Swine/pork and its by-products .
Animals improperly slaughtered or dead before slaughtering.
Animals not slaughtered with the name of Allah.
Alcohol and all forms of intoxicating and hazardous drinks.
Carnivorous animals, birds of prey, and land animals without external ears.
Pests such as rats, centipedes, scorpions and other similar animals.
Animals forbidden to be killed in Islam e.g. ants, bees, spider and woodpecker birds.
Animals which are considered repulsive generally like lice, flies, maggots and other similar animals.
Animals that live both on land and in water such as frogs, crocodiles and other similar animals.
Blood and by-products of blood.
Foods and drinks which contain any of the above haram ingredients or contaminated through contact with any of the above products.
What is Najs?
Animals or things that are themselves not permissible such as amphibions ,pigs (khinzir) and all its derivatives, blood and carrions.halal food that is contaminated with things that are non-halal; halal food that comes into direct contact with things that are non-halal.
What is Halal Certification?

Media and advertising channels with expressed permission for such use.
HARAM: This is another Arabic term which means impermissible or unlawful in Islam.
Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said: "Halal is clear and the Haram (unlawful) is clear. Between the two there are doubtful matters concerning which people do not know. One who avoids them in order to safeguard his deen (religion) and his honour are safe, while if some one indulges in it, he may be indulging in the unlawful……" (Bukhari)
General Qur'anic guidance dictates that all foods are Halal except those that are specifically mentioned as Haram (unlawful or prohibited). The Glorious Qur'an reads:
"O ye who believes! Eat of the good things wherewith we have provided you, and render thanks to Allah, if it is He whom ye worship. (chapter II, Verse 172)"
The unlawful foods are specifically mentioned in the Glorious Qur'an, in the following verses:
"He hath forbidden you only carrion, and blood, and swine flesh, and that on which hath been invoked any other name besides Allah's…….." (Chapter II, Verse 173)
"Forbidden unto you (for food) are: carrion and blood and swine flesh, and that on which hath been invoked the name other than Allah, and the strangled, and the dead through beating, and the dead through falling from a height, and that which hath been gored to death, and the devoured of wild beasts, saving that which ye make lawful (by slaughter) and that which hath been immolated to idols and that ye swear by the divining arrows. This is an abomination…." (Chapter V, Verse 3)
Consumption of alcohol and other intoxicants is prohibited according to the following guidance:
"O ye who believe! Intoxicants and games of chance, and idols and divining arrows are an abomination of Satan's handiwork. Leave it aside in order that ye may succeed." (Chapter V, Verse 9)
Meat is the most strictly regulated of the food groups. Not only are blood, pork, and the meat of dead animals or those immolated to other than Allah strongly prohibited, it is also required that the Halal animals be slaughtered while pronouncing the name of Allah at the time of slaughter.
"Eat of that over which the name of Allah hath been mentioned, if ye are believers in his revelations"
(Chapter VI, Verse 118)
"And eat not of that whereon Allah's name hath not been mentioned, for lo! It is abomination. Lo! The devils do inspire their friends to contend with you. But if ye obey them, ye will be in truth idolaters". (Chapter VI, Verse 121)
Attempts have been made to explain or justify some of the prohibitions based on scientific reasoning as follows:
Carrion and dead animals are unfit for human consumption because the decaying process leads to the formation of chemicals which are harmful to humans
Blood that is drained from the body contains harmful bacteria, products of metabolism, and toxins
Swine serves as a vector for pathogenic worms to enter the human body. Infections by Trchinella spiralis and taenia solium are not uncommon. Fatty acids, composition of pork fat have been mentioned as incompatible with human fat and biochemical systems
Intoxicants are considered harmful for the nervous system, affecting the census and human judgement leading to social and family problems and in many cases even death.
Although these explanations are sound, the underlying principle behind the prohibitions remains the above mentioned Divine orders.
Accordingly, Muslims permit all foods, pure and clean for consumption. Islamic Jurisprudence has derived certain principles from the Ahadeeth to determine whether a particular animal or bird is lawful or unlawful.
Why is it so important for a muslim to strictly consume halal?
Consuming Halal is an order of Allah and an essential part of the Islamic faith. Allah has repeatedly emphasised the consumption of Halal in His book. The following are some examples of such verses:
"O Messengers, eat from the pure foods and work righteousness" (Holy Quran 23:51)
"O you who have believed, eat from the pure things which we have provided you" (Holy Quran 2:172)
"O mankind, eat from whatever is on earth (that is) lawful and pure" (Holy Quran 2:168)
"So eat of that (meat) upon which Allah's name has been mentioned, if you are believers in His verses" (Holy Quran 6:118)
"And do not eat that upon which the name of Allah has not been mentioned, for indeed it is a grave disobedience". (Holy Quran 6:121)
By being careless about the dietary laws of Islam a believer puts himself in harms way both in this world and the world hereafter. In this world, due to in taking such a product he deprives himself from having any of his good deeds and duas accepted by his creator while in the hereafter he suffers the greatest loss ever imaginable i.e. refusal from being admitted to Paradise . All this is confirmed in the following traditions:
Abu Hurairah RA related," Allah's Messenger PBUH said: Verily Allah is pure and He accepts only what is pure and indeed Allah has given those orders to the believers, which he has given to the Messengers. He has said, "O Messenger, eat from the pure foods and work righteous". He -also- has said: "O you who have believed, eat from the pure things which we have provided you." Then (the Prophet PBUH) made mention of a man who undergoes a lengthy journey in a state that he is dishevelled and dusty. He spreads his hands towards the sky (calling), "O my lord, O my lord", however his food is Haram, his drink is Haram, his clothes are Haram and he has been nourished with Haram! So how will his call be answered?" (Muslim)
S'ad RA relates: Allah's messenger PBUH said "O S'ad purify your food (and as a result) you will become one who's supplications are accepted. I swear by He in whose hands the soul of Muhammad PBUH lies, verily a servant (of Allah) tosses a Haram morsel in his stomach (due to which) no deed is accepted from him for 40 days" (Tabarani)
Abu Baker RA narrated that Allah's Messenger PBUH said "That body will not enter Paradise which has been nourished with Haram" (Baihaqi)
Ka`b Ibn Ujrah relates that the Prophet of Allah (PBUH) said, "a body nourished with Haram will not enter Jannah". (Tirmidhi)
Jabir RA reported, Allah's Messenger PBUH said, "That flesh will not enter Paradise which has grown from Haram, and all that flesh which has grown from Haram, the fire (of hell) is more worthy of it." (Ahmed, Darimi, Baihaqi)
Abu Hurayrah (RA) reports that the Prophet of Allah (PBUH) said, "a time will come upon the people wherein a man will not bother what he intakes; whether from Halal source or Haram." (Bukhari)
In our times, it becomes even more important to ensure the meat and poultry consumed is genuinely Halal due to the execessive deceit, cheat and false labelling of Halal in the industry.

Instead of actually placing his extensive business holdings into a blind trust while he's president, Donald Trump continues to insist that he is above the law and doesn't have to do what every other president has done. And his designated spokespeople (i.e. paid liars) are getting in on the puffery parade, too.
"You know, Chuck, he has put the country ahead of everything else just [by] running and, indeed, winning and becoming president of the United States. I went and looked back at what all the press clips and conversations on shows like this were eight years ago, it was basically just debating on how cool Barack Obama is.
Actually, it's more than fair, Kellyanne; it's totally true. When in doubt, you blame the media, but that isn't gonna work much longer because it's becoming obvious to an overwhelming majority of Americans that Donald Trump is a crook, a con, a liar, and only sought the office of president so he can enrich himself and his spoiled brat children.

New wearable device could analyze the cortisol content of your sweat
24th July 2018 Editor	0 Comments Research
Now, a group led by materials scientist Alberto Salleo at Stanford University has created a stretchy patch that, applied directly to the skin, wicks up sweat and assesses how much cortisol a person is producing.
"We are particularly interested in sweat sensing, because it offers noninvasive and continuous monitoring of various biomarkers for a range of physiological conditions,"
said Onur Parlak, a post-doctoral scholar in the Salleo lab and lead author of the paper.
"This offers a novel approach for the early detection of various diseases and evaluation of sports performance."
Clinical tests that measure cortisol provide an objective gauge of emotional or physical stress in research subjects and can help doctors tell if a patient's adrenal or pituitary gland is working properly.
If the prototype version of the wearable device becomes a reality, it could allow people with an imbalance to monitor their own levels at home.
A fast working test like this could also reveal the emotional state of young — even non-verbal children, who might not otherwise be able to communicate that they feel stress.
The cortisol challenge
Parlak came to work with Salleo, who is associate professor of materials science and engineering, intending to develop wearable technologies.
While discussing Parlak's work at a conference, someone suggested to Salleo that it would be great if a sensor could measure cortisol.
Cortisol presents a special challenge to biosensors like the one Parlak was developing because these sensors detect a molecule's positive or negative charge and cortisol has no charge.
To overcome this challenge, Parlak built his stretchy, rectangular sensor around a membrane that specifically binds only to cortisol.
Stuck to the skin, it sucks in sweat passively through holes in the bottom of the patch.
The sweat pools in a reservoir, which is topped by the cortisol-sensitive membrane.
Charged ions like sodium or potassium, also found in sweat, pass through the membrane unless they are blocked by cortisol.
It's those backed up charged ions the sensor detects, not the cortisol itself. On top of all this is a waterproof layer that protects the patch from contamination.
"I always get excited about a device, but the sweat collection system that Onur devised is really clever, Without any active microfluidics, he's able to collect enough sweat to do the measurements."
Salleo said.
All a user needs to see cortisol levels is to sweat (enough to glisten), apply the patch and connect it to a device for analysis, which gives results in seconds. In the future, the researchers hope the sensor could be part of a fully integrated system.
Optimizing and diversifying
Parlak first showed that the device measured up to the gold standard clinical test in the lab, then gave it a real world test. He strapped on his running shoes and recruited two volunteers, who all ran for 20 minutes with the patches on their arms.
In both the lab and real world tests, the results were similar to the gold standard.
So far, the sensor appears to work as designed. But the researchers want to make it more reliable and accurate, and also make sure it is reusable.
The prototype seems to work multiple times so long as it is not saturated with sweat. In the future, they may try the cortisol sensor on saliva, which would avoid patients needing to sweat.
The researchers, hoping to take advantage of their generalizable design, are also figuring out what biomarker they may want to study next.
Eventually, the goal would be to have a device that measures several biomarkers at once, which would give a clearer and more individualized picture of what is going on in a person's body.

At the Junior School, we place great emphasis on sport and physical activity. We believe them to be important elements of a well-rounded education, providing enormous benefits. Apart from developing health and fitness, children develop self-esteem, self-confidence, discipline and respect, both as individuals and as part of a team and at a level appropriate to each individual.
In Games, the boys and girls are taught separately, working with qualified and experienced coaches. Boys play rugby, football and cricket with the girls playing hockey, netball and rounders. We also offer swimming and some experience of athletics, cross-country and tennis.
In PE, the children develop a wide range of skills as well as experiencing new activities. Indoor athletics takes place as well as opportunities to try things such as basketball, tchoukball and health-related fitness.
There is an extensive fixture list where all children have an opportunity to represent the School during their time at the Junior School, whatever their ability. The older, more able children will have the chance to represent the school at county, regional and national levels in a wide range of sports, with regular success. The School House competitions take place in all the major games with all of the children enjoying the close competition this brings.
We hope that sport at the Junior School creates an environment where the children can learn and develop skills but ultimately enjoy participating in sport now and for years to come.

Will Rising Discounts Crush Ford's Profits?
Ford's profit margin was strong last quarter, but it's likely to fall. Here's one reason why.
Ford says has been reducing incentives on its outgoing F-150 pickup. But analysts say that -- like competitors -- Ford's overall incentive spending has been rising. Source: Ford Motor Co.
Ford's (NYSE:F) remarkable turnaround has been powered by its strong results in North America. Lower costs (and much better cars and trucks) have helped Ford's North American division to some of the best operating profit margins in the business.
Those big profits have helped carry Ford while the company restructures its money-losing European operation and invests in a massive expansion in Asia.
But there's a storm cloud on the horizon: Competitive pressures have forced Ford to increase its "incentives," or discounts, here in the U.S.
There are good reasons to think that Ford will have to raise its discounts even further in coming months. Will Ford's all-important North American profits get crushed?
TrueCar.com analysts estimate that Ford's average per-vehicle spending on incentives in July was $3,398, up almost 14% from a year ago.
That's despite the fact that Ford has been holding down its incentives on the F-150 pickup, in an effort to manage supply and demand while it changes over its factories to the all-new 2015 model.
So, why are Ford's incentives up? The reasons vary to some extent with the model. For instance, Ford's Fusion is a strong contender that gained a lot of ground at Toyota's (NYSE:TM) expense last year, when its sales rose over 22%.
But this year has been a different story: Fusion sales are up just 4.3% through July, as buyers have favored SUVs over sedans. It's not just Ford: Rivals like Honda's (NYSE:HMC) Accord and Nissan's (NASDAQOTH:NSANY) Altima have also seen slower sales growth.
So now, in an effort to boost sales, Ford is offering interest-free financing for 60 or 72 months to Fusion buyers through its Ford Motor Credit arm, as well as "cash back" discounts of as much as $2,000 on some models and a series of attractive lease deals.
After a strong 2013, sales of the Fusion -- and many of its midsize sedan rivals -- have been subdued in 2014, as more buyers have chosen SUVs over cars. Source: Ford Motor Co.
That's just one example. But analysts say that Ford -- and to be fair, most of Ford's rivals -- are boosting incentives across the board right now. And they're predicting that incentives will keep rising.
Why? Because used cars are getting cheaper.
It makes sense that falling prices for nice, low-mileage used cars will put pressure on new-car prices. As the price gap between a new model and a nice clean certified-used one that looks pretty much the same starts to grow, more buyers will be tempted by the used models.
That in turn will lead automakers to boost discounts (or cut prices) -- if they want to keep their new-vehicle sales growing.
But why are used cars getting cheaper? Supply and demand: More used cars are coming to market -- because the number of vehicles coming to the ends of their leases is rising every month.
Generally speaking, the best used cars -- the ones that new-car dealers shine up and offer as "certified" -- are examples that have just come "off lease".
In Ford's case, Ford Motor Credit provides the company's lease offers. Customers lease a new Ford for 24 or 36 months and then return it to Ford Motor Credit, which then auctions off the lightly used vehicles.
Many of those off-lease Fords will find their way to Ford dealers, where they'll be "certified" and offered to customers who want a new-ish car but maybe don't want to pay full price for a new one. As more and more of those cars show up on dealer lots, and as their prices start to fall, it'll get harder and harder to make the case for a new model -- without some incentives.
There are other sources of used cars, of course, but that's how many of the nice ones make their ways to market in the U.S.
Now consider how new-vehicle sales have been rising in the U.S. over the last several years, and you'll see why supplies of nice used vehicles -- which lag the new-car market by two or three years, of course -- are starting to rise.
That's why prices will fall. And that's why Ford is likely to feel pressure to boost incentives further, squeezing its profits in North America.
Here's why that's a big deal.
Ford's sales in places like China have been booming, but Ford has been reinvesting much of the money it makes in Asia in an aggressive expansion effort. The company currently has five factories under construction in China and India.
Ford's global models have been finding lots of buyers in China. The Kuga -- a twin of the U.S.-market Escape -- has been one of several Fords posting strong sales. Source: Ford Motor Co.
Meanwhile, in Europe, Ford has been working on an aggressive restructuring plan. The company lost $1.75 billion in Europe in 2012 and $1.6 billion more in 2013, as steep recessions in many European nations clobbered new-vehicle sales.
While Ford Europe turned a small profit last quarter, that was a fluke. Ford expects Europe to post another loss for 2014, but says it should return to profitability in 2015. Meanwhile, the investment cycle in Asia will continue for at least another year, perhaps longer.
Both regions should start making nice contributions to Ford's bottom line -- in a couple of years. But while those efforts are playing out, Ford is heavily dependent on North America for profits.
As you can see, North America was a profit powerhouse, with a whopping (by auto industry standards) operating profit margin of 11.6%. Ford has warned that its margins will fall into the (still good) 8%-9% range as the year goes on, because of the costs of launching a series of new models.
Generally speaking, new models require fewer discounts to sell well. The new models that Ford is launching could help the company hold the line on discounts.
But if Ford has to keep boosting incentives to keep pace with competitors (and the used-car market), its margins could be hit harder. Stay tuned.

Audi Field és un estadi de futbol situat a la ciutat nord-americana de Washington DC, Estats Units. L'estadi va ser inaugurat el 9 de juliol de 2018 i és la seu del DC United de la Major League Soccer (MLS).

Història
El DC United va jugar de local en el RFK Stadium entre 1996 i 2017, situat en el Riu Anacostia, recinte que és propietat del Districte de Columbia i és operat pel DC Sports & Entertainment Commission. Aquest recinte ha estat la seu del club des de la fundació d'aquest, el 1996. La seva construcció es va iniciar el 1960 i va ser inaugurat l'1 d'octubre de 1961. Antigament es va construir per a esdeveniments de beisbol i futbol americà. Té una capacitat de 45.596 espectadors.

El 17 de desembre de 2014, el Consell de Washington DC va aprovar la legislació per a la construcció d'un nou estadi de futbol a Buzzard Point, molt a prop del Nationals Park. Està previst que s'inauguri a mitjan temporada 2018. El 15 de febrer de 2017, la marca alemanya Audi va signar un contracte per 12 anys, i el nou estadi va passar a anomenar-se Audi Field.

Lessons in Self Care

LESSONS IN SELF-CARE
by Alegra D Angelo, DWJ Public Policy Fellow 2016
Self-care is taking intentional actions to improve your mental, physical, emotional, or spiritual well-being. It's one way to manage the stress of everyday life. Self-care is empowering and has the ability to build up resilience and positivity. According to a study done by the Center for Disease Control, women and African Americans are more likely to report instances of major depression and less likely to seek out treatment. Self-care is reported to reduce the risk of depression, anxiety, and heart disease.
Self-care is not meant to be indulgent. For example, taking a ten-minute nap is a helpful self-care strategy. A quick nap boosts energy and reduces sleep debt.
Try to avoid watching TV during stressful situations, it can be a distraction and can even make the situation seem worse. TV in moderation is fun, but in but excess can turn into avoidance.

Black Women Promoting Peace and Justice in Our Communities
by Rachel Benjamin, DWJ Public Policy Fellow 2016
The month of June is generally recognized in this country as National Safety Month. Consequently, BWOPA/TILE's theme for the month of June is "Black Women Promoting Peace and Justice in our communities". We are honored to have Ms. Rachel Benjamin, one of our 2016 DWJ Fellows, explain the way one African-American woman uses her history with Chicago gang life to combat the ills of gang violence in impoverished communities. Her story reminds us that each one of us can make a difference by promoting peace within our communities.
The city of Chicago also referred to as "Chi-Raq" by some, is one of America's most deadly cities. Chicago's South Side is particularly troubled; it characterized by a concentration of gang violence, drug activity, poverty, and is primarily made up of African-American communities - also known as "concentrated disadvantage." In these communities, gun violence is a leading cause of death for young people. Within the first six months of 2016 alone, there have already been 1,599 sitting victims (Chicago Tribune). Law enforcement intervention has shown to be futile because the violence and disorder have continued to rage on.
Crime control/prevention initiative, CeaseFire, has been implemented in Chicago's South Side to address the gun violence head-on. This community led initiative utilizes community members as the primary interventionists in the effort to curb gun violence - they call themselves "the interrupters". Community activist Ameena Matthews, daughter of Jeff Fort, the co-founder of the Black P. Stones gang, has been a leader in the CeaseFire initiative. Using her past history of being immersed in the Chicago gang life, Ameena is able to relate to gang members on a personal level. Ameena uses her personal history to connect with gang members and helps them see the devastating effects that the violence they produce have on the community and the possible consequences it could have on their lives. When discussing her work with CeaseFire, Ameena says, "I'm not Ameena from the past or Jeff Fort's daughter. I'm Ameena with a soul, a peace builder who is showing others how to be peace builders and how to react in certain situations (Frontline)."
Ameena's efforts with the CeaseFire initiative promote peace and justice in the South Side Chicago community by transforming the way gang members perceive their actions. Ameena helps these individuals realize that their actions are doing more harm than good and urges them to put an end to the violence, thus creating a more peaceful and just community through utilizing community intervention rather than state intervention (i.e. law enforcement).
We've Got the Power To Be Financially Free!
by Monica Miller
Before we close the month of April, which is noted as Financial Literacy Month, it is only fitting for BWOPA to spotlight freedom fighter, Harriet Tubman.
Harriet Tubman becoming the new face of the American $20 bill is cause for both celebration and introspection for African American women. Today, the nation prepares to honor Tubman for her tireless work to free slaves over a hundred and fifty years ago. However, it is rather ironic that a countless number of African American women struggle daily with some form of financial captivity.
America's gender-based wage gap is likely to blame for black women's economic woes. It is well documented that African American women are paid 60 cents for every dollar paid to white, non-Hispanic men. Coupled with societal issues such as raising children alone and the lack of affordable housing, black women often find themselves in the precarious position of having to make absurd choices. For example, whether or not to provide basic needs for themselves and their families or saving money towards a college education and retirement.
As black women,we don't have to settle or suffer as an economic outcast. We should imitate Harriet Tubman's example by financially freeing ourselves so we can do our part to help other people who are oppressed and financially burdened.
Intrinsically speaking, black women whose finances are in disarray, need to first, take ownership of where they are. Second, make a vow to educate themselves about money. And third, implement financial strategies to change their pecuniary predicament.
Extrinsically speaking, black women need to advocate for policies on all levels of government that favorably influence their financial advancement. Such policies should require equal pay for women and men, parental leave, affordable childcare and flexible work schedules to name a few. As culture keepers, it is our responsibility to financially invest in businesses and organizations in our community that focus on developing, supporting, and advancing our people.
Just like Madame C.J. Walker, Oprah Winfrey, and Cathy Hughes; black women have the power and ability to achieve tremendous economic gains. We can not afford to be passive or intimidated by the present state of our collective fiscal affairs. We have the right to secure financial freedom for ourselves and we have the duty to ensure future generations will benefit from our decision to own our financial destiny.
Black History Moments
by Charlette Viney, BWOPA/TILE
The End of a Term, but the Legacy Continues ...
Through the years we have witnessed our champions display and celebrate black love. From Dr. King and Coretta Scott to currently President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama. We heard how the President worships the ground the First Lady walks on and how the First Lady is the President's number one cheerleader. We've seen them laugh and be goofy around each other. Embrace each other in front of critical cameras. This is the year, 2016, President Obama's last term. Let us be thankful to have lived to see black love celebrated in the White House these past 8 years.
Black love is Black History.
Nothing embodies the significance of African American achievements than watching 106-year old Virginia McLaurin's visit President and First Lady Obama at the White House to celebrate Black History Month. Ms. McLaurin, who has undoubtedly witnessed over a century of injustices towards her people never thought she'd live to see a black president in the White House. In her words, meeting the President and the First Lady was "The joy of my entire life" and as she stated "I can die smiling now". As we watched Ms. McLaurin dance with the President and First Lady we saw her deep love for her people. We connected with her jubilance because we understand that the Obamas are standing on the shoulders of many African Americans who gave their lives for future generations to have opportunities that they were denied. More importantly, like Ms. McLaurin, we applaud the strength and the courage it has taken the Obamas to grab a piece of American History and make it their own.
Black History is Love for Family and Community.
Still in awe from watching this year's SuperBowl's 50th Halftime performance, where Beyoncé performed her new single, "Formation." Starting off with a black power fist high in the air and dancers dressed in recognition of the 50th anniversary of the Black Panthers. Formation, a song in which celebrates her child's natural afro and her husband's wide nose. Controversy surrounded within seconds of the superstar's performance. Why? Because she expressed her love of Afrocentric features, self-love, love of her black child, love of her black husband, and social justice all in one song. Something that the Black Lives Matter movement has expressed repeatedly but others turned a blind eye too. In Beyoncé's performance, those blind eyes were forced to watch.
Today your children see a display of love in the White House that has never been seen before. They saw Beyoncé and a bunch of beautiful black dancers dance and celebrate blackness on a nationwide broadcasted event. To many children, this is the norm. Let us continue to display black love, self-love, and fight for social justice in which our children can relate and legacies such as these will continue. Let us continue to make great strides for the history books. Our black history moments.

Extended Day is perfect for those students looking for some additional enrichment and socialization opportunities. Students in all three of our morning classes have the option to add the Extended Day option to create a full-day of fun-filled adventures for our littlest learners!
When will the Extended Day program start?
The first day of our Extended Day will start on Monday, March 4th for M/W/F & M-F students.
What are the days/hours for Extended Day?
You can select from 2, 3, or 5-Day enrollment, just as we offer in the morning. Extended Day will begin immediately after the morning program ends at 11:30am, and pick up will be at 3:30pm.
Will current families receive priority registration?
You most certainly will! Current families will have a week to register before we open it up to all community members.
You can find the 2018-2019 fees by clicking here.
Do I have to pay the first & last month fee when I enroll for Extended Day?
Typically, we require families to make an initial payment that covers their first and last month's payment (Aug 18' and May '19). However, since you are already enrolled in our preschool program, we will waive the requirement to pay up front for both March '19 and May '19 Extended Day fees. You will only be charged one month at a time.
How will I be billed for the Extended Day Program?
You will be billed for Extended Day according to the 2018-2019 Preschool Fees. If you are already enrolled in our AM Preschool (8:30am – 11:30am), then you will see an additional charge added to your monthly auto-pay amount. For example, if you are a resident enrolled in our Morning M/W/F program, and want to add the Extended Day option, you will be billed on March 1 and April 1 in the amount of $245 for the morning program as you have been, plus an additional $327 for the Extended Day Program. Your final payment in May will only reflect your Extended Day enrollment, as you were billed for August/May when you enrolled in the Morning program. I know, this sounds confusing! Feel free to reach out to Sarah or Marty with questions.
Is there a nap- time as part of the Extended Day program?
The State of Colorado licensing division requires that children enrolled in an Extended Day program must rest for at least 30 minutes. This is simply quiet time – we do not require anyone to sleep if they do not want to. We have a separate room for nappers, and other children will transition to different enrichment activities.
* Cots are provided for rest time. Parents will provide a crib-size sheet, pillow, and blanket for their child.
What should I provide for my child for Extended Day?

Surprising Details About George Clooney Told By A Professional
Clooney and Gerber bought a dual villa complex known as Casa Amigos, just like their tequila brand. Half of the home was Clooney's, and the other was Gerber's, but the two homes are primarily connected.

SNPLawyers left 'baffled' by SNP inaction on Equality Act conflict as they say 'we warned you' numerous timesSNP politicians are shocked but following three years of warnings about Equality Act conflicts, campaigners say they were warned. For about 3 years, till March 2019, and across distinctive locations, the couple held N as a slave in their household, exactly where she was raped and subjected to forced labour.
He has delivered exceptional performances in some of the most iconic films of modern occasions, such as Batman & Robin, Out of Sight, and the Ocean's Series, among a lot of others. The American actor has also lately place on the director hat and has been the man behind various superb films. As brilliant as Clooney's expertise on the silver screen are his selection when it comes to automobiles. The Kentucky-born actor at present owns a number of remarkable automobiles, such as iconic American sports cars and ultra-rare restricted-run models. So, let's take a closer look at George Clooney's impressive car collection. The Sentry is a partner of the Clooney Foundation for Justice, founded by George and Amal Clooney to hold accountable those who commit international crimes and work for justice for the victims of mass atrocities and corruption.

George Clooney is a single of the most cherished Hollywood celebrities and needs no introduction.
In his free of charge time, he can be found cheering on his preferred soccer group or hitting the open road in his beloved car.
Having said that, there are mainly two overarching aspects that Zemeckis is obsessed with, adventure narratives and pushing the boundaries of specific effects. On the other hand, neither of these factors qualified for his 2016 picture, Allied, about two Globe War 2 operatives who fall in like. Identified for films such as Snatch and The Gentlemen, English director Guy Ritchie has engrained himself as possibly the foremost British gangster film director. Coming into the consciousness with Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, Ritchie followed up with Swept Away, a remake of the classic Italian film of the exact active same name about a housewife and her shipmate who get stranded in a thunderstorm.

Her career began early when she started to model infant clothing at the young age of two for the Sears & Roebuck catalog. Her family, which incorporated actor Philip McKeon, moved to Forest Hills when Nancy was nonetheless a young child. But given that McKeon starred in the sitcom, her life has been filled with rumor and innuendo.
Alternatively, you are watching a romantic comedy just like the ones you grew up on, the ones you still watch just about every year at Christmas or on a fall night, or when you are feeling especially cozy. In an interview with The New York Times earlier this year, Roberts credited Clooney with saving her from "full loneliness and despair" though in Australia, where she was away from her husband and little ones. "We had been in a bubble, and it's the longest I've ever been away from my loved ones. I don't think I've spent that much time by myself considering the fact that I was 25," she said. It is the biggest gap in between Tomatometer and Audience Score on Rotten Tomatoes web page, but the film received excellent critic reviews and also performed well at the box office, with a net of about $40 million.
Why Families Love their George Clooney.
His overall performance earned him nominations at both the Golden Globes and Oscars for greatest actor. After a string of rumored romances, George Clooney started bringing a new girlfriend — Las Vegas cocktail waitress Sarah Larson — to large red carpet events. They're noticed here at the "The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford" premiere in September 2007, the year the started dating.

Amal has lengthy been in a position to dip her sartorial toe into distinct strains of glamour, and this previous year we saw her as a chic chameleon, wearing a courtroom-prepared suit as very easily as a flirty dress.
The actor, director, and GQ Icon of the Year is the one particular issue we can all agree on—at a time when we can't agree on anything.
Of course, this is a big-studio romantic comedy, so the ice in between them will eventually crack and then melt away.
Britney Spears is controversy's favourite kid, and has held on to the moniker nicely even at the age of 40.
"Watch the reaction," he told Bush with glee as Roberts walked in. "Just the possibility to be definitely snarky to George jumped out at me," Roberts stated with a laugh. 'My hatred for you keeps me alive and we will never ever forgive you', father tells drink-driver who was…

The fake-sounding movie is directed by Elizabeth Banks and is certain to incur an fascinating fan base as soon as it hits theaters and streaming. Julia Roberts and George Clooney are starring opposite a single a different in a romantic comedy, but they aren't in enjoy when they reunite. Even although both actors have had long careers and you may think they had collaborated additional, they have only appeared in five films together. But this does not mean that the pair could not keep appearing in films with each other as their careers continue, coming back every single ten years or so to grace the massive screen and remind us how fantastic they are on screen together. The most current film for the pair to star in is Ticket to Paradise, and it is at the moment scheduled to be released on Oct. 21, 2022, after being pushed back from its initial release date.

That was not all, the human rights lawyer and activist utilised to also write letters for the actor and leave them under his pillows. Sandra Bullock chooses not to be on social media, which she says all stems from her 1995 flick "The Net." The actress joked that she discovered too considerably about hackers throughout her time on set. She says that by the time her youngsters want to get an account, she wants to be in the know about what's going on.
Use George Clooney just like a 'occupation'
To be confident, The American is not for all tastes — and it's a small self-consciously indebted to its influences — but the film is an absorbing, rewarding curveball from an actor who was pleased to take dangers even at the height of his celebrity. Just how taken George was with his new wife became clear on their initial post-wedding red carpet outing, at the Golden Globes in January 2015. The Hollywood icon paid a loving tribute to Amal as he accepted the Cecil B. DeMille Award for his lifetime achievement in the planet of film.
The big highlight of the film though, as is obvious from the trailer, is the dynamic duo of Roberts and Clooney, searching as charming and funny as they did in their last on-screen look.

Relationship & Life Coach Bree Maresca-Kramer M.A.
Going through a breakup is rarely easy. There are feelings to deal with, unresolved issues to address, and the grieving process to go through. The pain a woman feels after her relationship ends ranges from moderate to severe depending on her emotional and physical investment into it. This article is written to help those women who are struggling to get over their break up so they can be free to move forward with their lives.
Top Relationship & Life Coach Bree Helps Women Heal After A Breakup!
#1: Always Allow Your Feelings!
It is human nature to want to avoid pain, especially emotional pain. However, when we repress or run from our feelings we are really doing ourselves a grave disservice. Those uncomfortable feelings will ultimately have to be felt and processed through. If not, they will cause physical illness, self-protective walls, and a block in our lives. Therefore, the best prescription is to feel and express your feelings in a healthy way. This means you process through the feelings of sadness, hurt, anger, frustration, and self-pity but do not get stuck in them. Crying, staying in bed, journaling, talking to your support system, or working with a professional all help in this process.
#2 Go Through The Grieving Process!
It is vital to allow the natural grieving process to occur, as that will enable you to move to a healed place. The stages of the grieving process are denial, anger, bargaining, and acceptance. One can go through these stages in any order and can repeat the stages more than once. The important fact here is to stay aware of where you are and honor that stage. The grieving process is a natural innate process that helps humans move past a loss.
After a breakup there is a great opportunity, which presents itself that many women miss and that is personal responsibility. This is such an important part of your personal growth for it is the time to look at what you did in the relationship that could have been better. For instance, if you were excessively jealous, too clingy, too aggressive, or did not communicate well this is the time to face it. When a woman has the courage to look at herself with honest eyes and owns her mistakes and weaknesses she becomes empowered to heal and grow.
This is the fun part of getting past a breakup! This is the time where you have the opportunity to redefine what it is that you want to experience in your life and your next relationship. This is an empowering time for you for you get to re-write what you want to create and experience. This is the time for you to become better instead of allowing yourself to become bitter!

Relationship Help For Women From Expert Bree Maresca-Kramer M.A.
When a woman comes to me for relationship help it generally is because she is at the end of her rope. She has tried everything she knows to do; however, nothing is working. Generally, she is tired, frustrated, and feels little hope and depressed. She reaches out as a last ditch effort hoping that I will teach her something to make her relationship work. Thus begins the process of healing, growth, and transformation!
When a relationship is not going well, a woman needs to look at what part she is playing in the dysfunction. This part can range anywhere from picking the wrong type of man to unknowingly him.
This initial step takes courage for it is so much easier to point the finger and blame the man versus taking accountability.
This step entails stepping back and observing the actual dynamics within the relationship. This is often extremely difficult to do on ones own and requires the help of a neutral third person who is educated to do so. When I work on this step with a woman, I am helping her to recognize the way she and her man interact with one another in both healthy and unhealthy ways.
This third step takes a firm commitment to wanting to grow and heal. In general, human beings do not like or welcome change. This is ironic as change is the only constant that occurs during ones life. During this step, I teach my client the exact tools she will need to change her thoughts and behaviors in order to have a successful relationship with her man.
As a woman applies the new information and guidance she has received from our working together she will have the opportunity to enjoy the fruits of her labor. She will feel better emotionally, experience positive changes in her relationship, and move forward to a whole new place of love and intimacy with her man.
Relationship Coach & Expert Bree Helps Women Understand Men!
The differences between men and women are great. When a woman is unaware of these vast differences and how to bridge the gap between them, she can experience great emotional pain and relationship problems.
For a woman to have a happy, lasting, and healthy relationship she must understand herself, her man, and how to parlay that understanding into a successful relationship.
Relationship Coach& Expert Bree Helps Women Understand Men!
It is of the utmost importance for a woman to develop a sound relationship with herself. This may sound silly to mention but you would be surprised at how many women look to the man in their life to define them and make them feel good.
A woman must blossom into all that she is. She must come to accept and love all parts of herself, even those pieces that still need some healing. By doing this it will allow her to show up in her life and relationship fully empowered.
When a woman has the wrong types of expectations for a man she is doomed to feeling disappointed and miserable.
Many women really believe that their man should be or act in this or that way. This belief unfortunately blocks the woman from seeing the truth of the situation and instead, ends up feeling hurt by his inabilities. I commonly see this with the women I work with who will say things such as, "he should know what I want…if he loved me he would understand me…he needs to stop exercising so much and pay attention to me." In all of these statements there is one thing missing…understanding.
#3 Treat Him Like A Man!
Today, the biggest complaint I hear from men in relationships is that they are tired of their woman always bossing them around and not respecting them.
A man must be allowed to be the man or he will end up feeling emasculated and withdraw from the relationship. Many women today have lost their connection to their own femininity and because of that have taken on much more masculine roles, even with their own man.
#4 Express Love In His Language!
Everyone expresses and receives love in their way. Learning what these languages are is paramount in a healthy relationship for it allows each person to express their love in a way their partner can receive. This is further explained in the It's That Simple! relationship help book for women.
When a woman can express her love to her man in a way he relates too and understands, she will have one very happy man!
#5 Receive His Love With Grace!
When a woman has the capacity to accept, forgive, and love, she is able to gift a priceless gift to the world and those around her.
The man in her life will especially receive an amazing experience with her. This type of woman understands who her man is along with his strengths and weaknesses. She is able to receive what he can give and how he can express his love without harsh judgment, condemnation, or shame. She is a safe harbor for him and allows their love to be freely expressed to one another.
The major complaint I hear from single men actively dating is that they do not know what women want. When I share this with the single women I work with they are in absolute shock because they believe men automatically know what they want.
Thus, once again we have men and women searching for the same thing, finding that special someone and having a relationship, but feeling lost and frustrated with all of the dating games.
As my client a man will learn how to develop and master a level of confidence that will naturally draw women to him. In addition, he will learn how to take the lead and stay in control of the dating process. Finally, he will learn how to quickly create a bond that keeps her wanting more of him.
Most men have no idea how women think, feel, process or communicate. In order to have a great relationship with a woman a man must know "women speak" and then be able to communicate with her. In my dating coaching program for men he will learn to decode what she really means and is trying to tell him. From there we will move on to him understanding what she is looking for and how to deliver it.
So many men waste their precious time and hard earned money with the wrong woman. I teach the single men I work with a simple and easy to use technique to quickly determine if the woman he is interested in is right for him. Once he has this down pat we move onto removing any thoughts or behaviors that are blocking him from having the woman of his dreams.

Best Relationship Coach Bree Maresca-Kramer M.A. Helps Couples After An Infidelity!
Relationship Expert Bree Maresca -Kramer M.A.
Many people believe that a relationship cannot survive an infidelity. This is an erroneous belief because the fact is that a relationship can make it through as long as the couple has the right tools and willingness to do so.
An infidelity occurs for many reasons and there is not one cookie cutter answer to why. However, there is a way to get past it, heal the relationship, and become even stronger because of it. I have helped many men and women discover why the infidelity occurred and then how to rebuild their relationship. This process is not an easy one as it involves an incredible amount of emotional pain that must be directly addressed and healed. However, for those couples who want to keep their relationship together the good news is they can!
It is very important for a couple to become clear on why one or both partners decided to step outside the boundaries of their committed relationship. I am able to work with my clients on this step only if when they are willing to be honest with themselves and their partner. Once the reason is exposed then the actual healing from the infidelity begins. A couple will experience great relief at this stage in the process along with a glimmer of hope that they can make it.
Trust in a relationship is one of the fundamental key elements that must be present for the relationship to thrive. When an infidelity has occurred rebuilding the trust is vital. This part of the healing process is very individual for each couple. Some are able to start trusting quickly while others take much longer. Again the ability for the couple to successfully rebuild the trust has everything to do with the willingness on the part of the partners to do what it takes to make that happen.
Once a couple understands why the infidelity happened, they are well equipped with the information needed to make sure it never does again. In most cases, there are pre-warning signs, which came about before the infidelity actually took place. When couples are made aware of what to pay attention too, they are better able to ensure the sanctity of their commitment to one another.
When I am working with a couple who are in this healing process they will get to the point when the emotional pain subsides and they are ready to begin again. This step is quite enjoyable for the couple because they experience the rediscovering of one another and the love they have for each other all over again. This is the time the couple actually falls in love again!
Once the relationship has gone through the healing stages and is in a new place, I help them make a plan of action to ensure their relationship continues to grow and flourish. They are given the information, tools, and guidance to keep their relationship happy and healthy for the long term!

Get Relationship Help To Stop Fighting Here!
Whether I am in a grocery store, at a child's birthday party, or out to dinner, there are always couples who are in a fight and not speaking to one another or who are actively fighting. These couples range anywhere from dating to married with kids. Especially today with the financial and life stressors being so high, I developed a special relationship-coaching program just for couples to help them stop fighting with one another.
When a couple continually fights there is a specific reason. Whether it is unresolved old resentments, poor communication skills, or childhood issues being triggered the core of the arguing must be uncovered, addressed, and healed.
As a relationship coach and former Mental Health Counselor I work with my clients one-on-one via phone sessions to help them understand what the core issue of their fighting is all about. Once a couple has this vital information they are on the road to ending their misery and finding happiness together again.
When a couple can become sympathetic to one another's perception, true understanding enters their relationship. This is so very important to have in a happy and healthy relationship. However, most couples will look to insert their way or perception instead of trying to understand where their partner is coming from.
My relationship-coaching program teaches couples how to become empathetic to each other by first understanding their partners perception. This does not mean they must agree on everything but it does mean they become tolerant of one another's viewpoint.
By far one of the biggest reasons couples fight is a lack of effective communication skills. When a couple does not have these tools they will often run into misunderstandings, hurt feelings, and resentments, which all lead to the break down of a relationship.
This is so vital that in my It's That Simple! relationship help books there is a whole chapter dedicated to teaching effective communication tools. There is a It's That Simple! for Women and It's That Simple! for Men available.
If a couple is not ready to work with me as a relationship coach then I highly recommend they at least get these books to help them stop fighting and have a happy relationship.
Once a couple can get to the core issue, find understanding, and use proper communication tools with one another they are ready for the fun part of getting to date again!
This part of the relationship-coaching program teaches couples how to have fun with one another again. When a couple has been caught up in the negative cycle of fighting they rarely have had any fun together. When the couple I am working with is able to get past the pain and hurt, they are ready to experience some fun. Having fun together is an extremely underrated but vital element in a healthy relationship.
Find The Love & Intimacy Again!
When I am working with a couple, this is the final step they take in the healing process. It is the time in which we address and heal their emotional and physical intimacy. At this point in the process, I teach the couple how to grow closer both emotionally and physically so that their overall relationship becomes very fulfilling.
The couple has an opportunity to experience the giving and receiving of love with one another at a whole new level. This part of the process is absolutely beautiful as I get to help a couple who were once incredibly unhappy find and express the love they have for one another!
Relationship Expert & Coach Bree Maresca-Kramer: Get Relationship Help When You Need It!
All relationships, even the healthiest ones, run into some difficult patches now and then. Those couples who do not have the proper relationship tools to get through complicated times are the ones who fall apart and do not make it. Most of the time, in these cases, the couple needed some relationship help and would have been able to stay together. The unfortunate fact is that so many men and women were not taught these tools while growing up and are left to figure it out for themselves. When I work with couples I often times have to start with the very basics such as with communication, feeling identification, boundaries, and intimacy issues. When a couple has the willingness to learn and apply the right tools miracles in their relationship happen!
A Problem That Will Not Go Away!
If a couple has a problem that continues to arise and is not able to come to a solution it is time to get help. If a couple does not take action, the repetitive issue usually snowballs into other concerns causing more damage in the relationship. Many times a couple will come to me for help with just one issue. As soon as it is addressed and healed they move on with their relationship stronger and wiser.
When a couple stops talking it is a definite sign that they need help. Silence between partners is sometimes worse than fighting, as it can represent a defeated attitude toward the relationship. When one or both partners give up it is extremely difficult to make the relationship work. There must be willingness to do what it takes to make it work and talking it out is one of those things.
When a couple loses their emotional and physical bond that is a huge red flag and help must be attained immediately! A healthy relationship needs both a strong emotional and physical bond. Many couples allow life stressors to get in the way and block these two vital pieces of their relationship. When a couple sees one or both of these parts of their relationship not working it is definitely time to get help.
Fighting is a normal part of a relationship, as it represents differences coming to the surface of two individuals. When a couple can argue and work through it respecting one another, their relationship has a high survival rate. On the other hand, while a couple is fighting if they use blame, shame, or hurtful words or accusations they are causing great damage, which could ultimately end their relationship. There is a way to fight fairly that I teach my clients that changes everything!
This has to be by far one of the most important facets in a healthy relationship. So many couples have no idea how to effectively communicate with one another. A man must learn how to talk with his woman and a woman must learn how to talk with her man in order for their relationship to work.
That is why there is a whole chapter dedicated to teaching men and women how to talk with one another in the It's That Simple! relationship help book for men and It's That Simple! relationship help book for women.
When a couple runs into times where things could be better that is the time to get help rather than waiting for things to magically get better on their own. The fact is that relationship problems do not go away on their own. It takes information, tools, and guidance to solve the problems and have a healthy, happy, and thriving relationship!

Relationship Expert & Coach Bree Maresca-Kramer: Top Dating Mistakes Women Make!
Time and again, I have to help women learn how to stop acting like the man in the relationship and instead teach them how to act like a woman. A heterosexual man who is out there looking for a woman is not interested in finding another 'man' to date. Men today are tired of over bearing, bossy, and demanding women. They are looking for a woman who knows how to express her femininity while still being an independent woman.
A woman must allow the man to pursue, when she does not she is short – circuiting the dating or courting process. A lot of women do not like to hear this because they want to feel that they are the ones in control or the driver's seat. Actually, this is the worst place for a woman to be because she loses out in the end. She misses the courtship time and blocks the man from fall head over heals for her.
When a woman comes on too strongly to a man she appears desperate, even if she is not. Yes, men like to know a woman is interested but when it is too overt it is a turn off. When a woman responds to a man's pursuit she is letting him know she is interested. For example, if a man asks a woman out and she says "yes" that is giving him the green light. She does not have to pour it on about how great it would be to go out with him, just a simple "yes, that would be nice" will suffice.
Accepting Bad Behaviors From Men!
This has to be the worst mistake a woman can make. When a woman tolerates being treated disrespectfully or even worse abusively from a man, she is telling him he can keep doing it. In addition, she is harming her self worth at the same time. Eventually, her self-esteem will take a hard hit, which takes a great deal of concerted effort and work to repair. It is vitally important for a woman to pick a man who will adore her and treat her well today and in the future. The fact is that if he is not treating her well during the dating period it will only get worse down the road!
Forgetting To Cherish Herself First!
When a woman goes out looking for a man to fill her needs she is setting herself up for a big fall. True inner happiness and peace comes from knowing, accepting, and loving oneself first. When a woman does this she is ready for a wonderful relationship with a man who will also know, accept, and love all of her, even the parts that still need some healing.
The first mistake men make is not exhibiting confidence.
This is one of the biggest turn-offs for a woman. When a man comes across intimidated or unsure he is sending the message, "I am not good enough for you." Unfortunately, this is what the woman picks up and finds her exit quickly. True confidence comes from the inside out. When a man feels good about who he is that naturally radiate from him and is so attractive to women.
Another common mistake happens when a man comes across arrogant or cocky. As much as women are repulsed by a man acting insecurely they are even more disgusted by a man who is conceited. When a man is smug or vain he is shouting to the world, "Look at how great I am and be sure to tell me!" This leaves very little room for a woman or relationship.
This mistake may seem like common sense but you would be surprised at the number of men who make it! The mistake? They forget to secure the next date at the end of the current date. This can happen because of nerves or he is so excited that it just slips his mind. The important note to remember is that she and he are interested in one another make plans whiles she is in front of you.
This next mistake happens all the time! It is the reliance on modern technology too early on and too heavily. Yes, I am talking about texting. Texting is great for little quick notes and thoughts when you have already established a relationship. However, in the beginning stage of dating it is a big mistake.
Women feel great when a man they are interested in calls them. It opens them up to the possibility of having a relationship with him. If he primarily texts her, she feels as if he is not that into her or making an effort to get to know her.
So until you have established the relationship use your phone for calls.
Finally, one of the biggest mistakes a man makes while dating is not taking the lead. Women are very attracted to men who express their masculinity and do it in a chivalrous way. Opening the door, pulling out a chair, picking up the check, and treating her with respect goes a very long way. This does not mean he should be a pushover, it means he is comfortable in the male role and allows the woman to be comfortable in expressing her femininity.

Losing My Religion (Episode 8 in a series of 10)
Hugo Speer and Ruth Gemmell star as the parents of a bullied child in Losing My Religion, written by Shaun Duggan – part of BBC Daytime's Moving On drama series created by Jimmy McGovern. The series of 10 films, written by new and established writers, explores contemporary issues linked by characters who learn how to move on in life.
Religion for Joanne has only ever been the backdrop to her life; her children go to a Catholic school for the academic results more than anything else. So when her son Jamie is bullied, she immediately assumes the school will put a stop to it.
Shocked to discover Jamie is being targeted because the other pupils think he's gay, Joanne tries to talk to him but he's only 15 and uncommunicative. Her husband Dave warns her to keep out of it, instead advising his son to land a killer punch on his tormentors.
Head teacher Mr Georgeson claims he abhors bullying and will reprimand those involved if Jamie gives him the names. Joanne is worried and Dave admits he'd be gutted if his son was gay, as surely any dad would be, but Jamie overhears his dad talking and suddenly feels totally alone.
The next day, Jamie misses school and Dave comes home to find that his son has attempted to take his own life. As Jamie recovers in hospital, Joanne realises that she has always known the truth.
Dave has a real heart-to-heart with Jamie while Joanne takes issue with the school again. What if another child attempts to take their own life because the school won't educate them all on the complexities of sexuality? Mr Georgeson won't budge – he has a duty to adhere to the teachings of the Catholic faith.
Fearing Jamie will be cast aside by God, Joanne confides in her priest, Father Dwyer. Encouraged by his response, she presses Jamie again for the bullies' names. But when she discovers the problem is meshed into the very fabric of the school, Joanne knows she must stand up for her son, whatever the consequences.

The more I think on the subject, the more I feel satisfied of the imprudence of my placing myself in a situation, I must, one day have incurred considerable expense to have maintained; the running into a contest would, with my family, have been little short of madness.
The same motives which compelled me to resist becoming a candidate at the late election still exist; indeed are stronger, as I have an additional child to provide for. No nomination can succeed, neither is it fair merely for the purpose of putting our opponents to expense. You, I think, will enter into my feelings respecting subscriptions, agents unpaid and tradesmen injured in their business, though others will not.
The friends of the independence of the county had been so often taunted with the epithets of Jacobin and radical, that it would have been unworthy of him had he not afforded them an opportunity of evincing their loyalty ... He was not a moderate reformer; if reform was necessary let them have such a one as would effect some good.
Rooper, who never joined Brooks's Club, voted for the second reading of the reintroduced reform bill, 6 July, and divided steadily for most of its detailed provisions, though he voted for the disfranchisement of Saltash, 26 July 1831. He is not known to have spoken in debate during this period, but he presented an anti-slavery petition, 25 June. He voted with government against charges of improper interference in the Dublin election, 23 Aug. He divided for the passage of the reform bill, 21 Sept., the second reading of the Scottish bill, 23 Sept., and Lord Ebrington's motion of confidence in the ministry, 10 Oct. He voted for the second reading of the revised reform bill, 17 Dec. 1831, and was again a reliable supporter of its details. He divided for its third reading, 22 Mar., and the second reading of the Irish measure, 25 May 1832. He was in the government majorities on the Russian-Dutch loan, 26 Jan., 12, 16, 20 July, inquiry into the number of British mercenaries serving in Portugal, 9 Feb., and rationalization of the civil administration of the navy, 6 Apr. He voted for the Irish register of deeds bill, 9 Apr., and to open coroners' inquests to the public, 20 June 1832.
Rooper represented the county until his defeat in 1837, when he retired to private life, from which he had emerged, it was generally believed, more out of deference to his friends than from any ambition of his own. According to a fulsome obituary he was 'the personification of that rare virtue political honesty', and 'there was in him no bending sycophancy, no double-faced policy, no subserviency'. He was 'thoroughly English', for 'no other land would have produced the bones and gristle of his mind'.15 He died in March 1855, from injuries sustained after falling over the bannisters in the middle of the night.16 In his will, dated 28 July 1854, he devised £5,000 to each of his three youngest sons, but made additional provision for his second son who held the family advowson. He had already settled £3,000 on each of his married daughters and he bequeathed the same sum to those who remained single.17 He was succeeded in turn by his sons Bonfoy Rooper (1827-69) and the Rev. Plummer Pott Rooper (1828-81), rector of Abbots Ripton.
