Ask DJ Lyons about Bullying: Question #1
As a Conflict Resolution Specialist, I sometimes receive questions about coping with bullying from one of my readers or from one of the workshop attendees of my “Be Bully Free” school programs. Knowing that these issues are common to many young people throughout the world, it felt timely to start an Ask DJ Lyons about Bullying column. Please note that DJ Lyons is the pen name I use for my two published books and some of my other writing. My real name is Debbie Dunn. Should you have a question of your own about bullying, feel free to e-mail Debbie Dunn aka DJ Lyons at moredunntales@yahoo.com. I will of course keep your real name and e-mail address entirely confidential. You will receive both a personal reply and a response via this column. I will change your name in the column to protect your privacy.
Question #1: Girl from UK deals with frequent name-calling from one persistent boy
“I would like to ask you something about my experience with bullying and I hope you can help me. Right, so there's this boy called Thomas (name changed to protect his privacy) in my year and he makes these faces at me or calls me a name I really do not like. So he does this face once in a while, but hasn't done it for weeks. Then last Wednesday he pulled it when I was in the art room and he walked by the door, with his friends, whom I know, are very nice people and they don't do it, it's only him. It's started about near the beginning of year 9 and it's year 10 now; but in year 10 he hardly ever does it, less than once in a week, but when he does do it, it just really bothers me. Everyone has grown up except him; he is so sad and annoying. I would like to ask you how I should deal with it and the best method you can think of. Right now I guess he can see it in my eyes that I get annoyed, but I don't ever talk to him or say anything back, why should I waste my breathe on him? I am thinking that I should maybe smile at him nicely and then say a nice comment to subtly show him that you’re wasting time doing what you’re doing, but I’m not really sure. As for my personality I am a well liked person with many friends, I’m quite confident but I can be shy at times but I wouldn't say I am a weak person. I hope you can give me some advice to resolve my issue.”
Thanks in advance,
Sandra (name changed to protect her privacy)

How to Be Alert to 4 Signs of Breast Cancer – Lump, Dimple, Rash, or Nipple Discharge
.jpg)
Breast Cancer health alert: Many people are aware that a lump in the breast could potentially be a sign of breast cancer. Whether this mass or tumor turns out to be benign or malignant, you should always get it checked out.
Are you also aware that nipple discharge could be a sign of breast cancer? Additionally, if you have a rash, a dimple (indentation of any size), or there is puckering on your breast, this could also be a sign of serious breast cancer. If you notice any of these signs, make an appointment with your doctor as soon as possible to find out whether you might have cancer calls invading your breast and potentially other regions of your body.

Wouldn’t flowers celebrating the Twilight series plus Valentine’s Day be a romantic gift?

As most people are aware, Valentine’s Day is coming up right around the corner. So now it is to the advantage of one member of a partnership or both members of that partnership to come up with the ideal Valentine’s Day memento to celebrate the occasion. Naturally, some husbands or partners can get away with giving a sweet, sentimental card. Some can get away with giving a box of candy. Interestingly enough, I just stepped into the other room and saw a commercial about a guy presenting flowers from 1800flowers to his wife or girlfriend. She is sobbing away. He is a little worried. She praises him for making her feel all warm and fuzzy. So, I guess you get the point that flowers could make a very great gift to someone you love.
Now take that one step further. Does the person you love also love and enjoy the Twilight book and movie series by Stephenie Meyer? I must admit that I have watched both movies plus read the four-book series twice through already. I was very excited to learn that the author is considering publishing a fifth book on the subject – this time from the point-of-view of Edward. She has even posted a draft of the first chapter for her readers to enjoy on her website. I’ll include the link to that website in the resource section.
Then I discover that 1800 flowers actually has a Twilight flowers DVD offer that includes roses, a pre-order of the New Moon DVD, Twilight candy bar, and Twilight poster. That could be a really romantic gift for those people in your life who wish to be remembered on Valentine’s Day and who is a great fan of the Twilight Series.
As for ordering flowers from 1800 flowers.com, MSNBC actually highlighted them as the company who are listed with the best price per item ordered. Nicer yet, the company has agreed to send $2 to the Haiti relief effort for every Twilight gift bundle ordered.
