Beating online bullies
Bullying is a problem in probably every classroom, and more than a few workplaces. But online bullying, while increasingly common, may be easier to stop than you think.
After all, bullying can only be stopped if there's concrete proof that it's taking place. Now this can be tricky if someone's being picked on in dark alleys or behind the bike sheds. But where electronics are concerned it should be a whole lot easier.
Take abusive texting for example. The text message comes with its own
date and number stamp - so either the bully will have to use a separate
account or someone else's phone. Email is trickier but I'm willing to
suspect there are more than a few bullies out there who are dumb enough
to use their own email addresses. After all, it's not a profession that
attracts the best and the brightest.

In the time of recession one job or one work is hardly fulfilling needs of people. So everyone is looking for supplementary source of income.
Now the question is what can be that source of income in such a bad phase of economy??
Well it’s very difficult to start new business at this point of time as it requires lot of cash and efforts. So again question is how to make more money in such conditions when needs are same and income is low?
We strongly suggest that if you like to take bit of risk and don’t want to spend too much money and time on new venture then stock market is the right place for you.
To be very frank this is not the right time for investment that is for long term to medium term investment but every day is a favourable day for day trading. No matter if NSE or BSE
is bullish or bearish as In stock market one can earn in both of these trends.
So just think about it and see if stock market can be the right place to make some extra money.
Please feel free to contact us for any query.

I have a 49 year old friend who is suffering from leukaemia and depression he tried to kill himself last night because he is being bullied on-line, he is being told he is a shit head and should top himself. Now he is so scared to use the internet that he's disconnected his e mail addresses and refuses to use the internet. I have no way of contacting him now to let him know that I want to put a stop to this nasty abuse. What can I do to make sure this doesn't happen to anyone else.

It would be helpful to have more information on adults who fall victim to this kind of bullying. Adults like my friend. This sort of thing can traumatise an adult as much as a younger person. Bullies are basically cowards who do not care who they hurt and as extreme as it may sound if it can be proved that a person committed suicide as a result of bullying then some sort of murder charge should be brought against the bully.
