Shaming people on Social Media

This week, after getting mad and running out of ideas on how to get my kids to clean up after themselves, I did something despicable. I took a picture of a plate and a cup that my son had left on his work desk in my office and sent it to him via a facebook private message. I then got him and his 13 year old brother in the room and threatened: "The next time you guys leave your s*** lying around, I will snap a picture and I won't send it to you privately! I will post this stuff on Facebook, I will tag you in it and all your friends will know what slobs you are!" Was it wrong? It certainly was a desperate attempt from a desperate mother to shame her kids into doing the right thing. They laughed it off. They know the chances of me doing such a thing are slim to none. A while back, there was this youtube video of a father who used a gun to destroy his daughter's laptop after she posted a very disrespectful rant on facebook about how bad she had it with her parents. His actions were criticized by Dr. Phil on National TV. Dr. Phil apparently thinks that a child should never, ever be embarrassed in public. Do you agree? Or do you think the father simply had guts and only returned the shame his daughter , who was 15 by the way, tried to inflict to him? At 15, are you still considered a child? Are you not well aware of your wrongdoings and therefore, shouldn't be surprised if you get an equal reaction to any of your actions, even from your parents?
This got me thinking that this is a slippery slope. As with everything, there are people out there who do use technology to get others to do what they want for the wrong reasons and practice cyber blackmail and cyber bullying. Would the actions of this father be considered cyber bullying?

Bullying is a serious problem in our schools. Cyber bullying is a problem that follows us in our homes. With the wide access to cell phones with cameras, kids today have no problem posting embarrassing texts or pictures to shame their peers. Going through my 13 year old's facebook messages--yes, I have his password and check his stuff every now and then and you should too--I just couldn't believe the stuff that comes out of young people's mouths nowadays. My son is not allowed to miss-behave and use derrogatory, sexist or racist terms online. If he does, he knows that will be the end of his social media life. I'm sure he gets away with some stuff, it's hard to monitor every single social media account they have, but I sure as hell try! On February 25, it will be Pink Shirt Day. The Seeker would like to encourage everyone to take a stand against bullying and wear something pink to show that we are all working together to prevent bullying in our schools, in our communities and online. And if you are a parent, I urge you to pay close attention to the virtual world your child lives in. It will likely partly shape who they become.
Unless and until our society recognizes cyber bullying for what it is, the suffering of thousands of silent victims will continue. -Anna Maria Chavez

ONE OF OUR COMMUNITY'S GREAT VOLUNTEERS The Kinsmen Community Residence offers an enhanced quality of life to adults with developmental challenges by providing the opportunity to learn and practice independent living skills and by increasing their participation and involvement in the community.
When staff at the OSPCA were asked about Karen, they said, ?She is happy to do anything!? She will wash and dry the dishes before putting them away, she does the laundry and folds it all, she plays with the animals, and gives a hand where ever needed. The staff also commented on how friendly Karen is, always saying ?Hi? to everyone she meets. She never complains about any task asked of her and smiles while working. When asked what her favourite part of volunteering is, Karen replied, ?Coming and helping out.? Thank you, Karen for volunteering and making a difference in many people and animal?s lives. Keep up the good work!
Here is a look into the life of one of our great residents!
Barb Jackson, Manager

M O M TALK
Je ssica
LANO IS Date Night
My fiancé and I recently had a mini escape and travelled to Toronto for two days. We dined, dressed up, saw both a Raptors and a Leafs game. We laughed, we had drinks, we walked and more importantly we talked. I never questioned the love I have more my fiancé, but I still found myself falling deeper for him during this time. We truly enjoyed one another?s company. I have come to realize that I had forgotten who my fiancé was outside of a Father and provider, I forgot who I was in his life, and I forgot that I could be more than a Mom. We had a chance to reconnect; I didn?t know that we needed to reconnect. I got so adjusted to seeing him before and after work, I had found myself content being a housewife and a caregiver. We had our roles and found comfort in our new life. This trip changed everything. It was as though something was missing and we never knew. It was hard being away from our 10-month pride and joy, we Face timed him often and played games over the phone, we kissed him goodnight and sent our love every opportunity we had. He was in good hands, and knowing this let us be ?us?. I discovered a new side of parent life while on this trip, and that is your relationship with your partner is equally important. Ten Months ago, I gave birth. Ten months ago I thought life, as I knew it was over. That I would never leave the house with feeling guilt, that I would never buy myself something nice again and the time I had with my fiancé would be spent at home struggling to stay awake as we watched a movie, or fighting to keep my focus while we played board games. Ten months ago I was utterly clueless. I am far from an expert today, and I still have so much to learn as any new parent would. But my most recent lesson learned in that it is okay to a woman, it is okay to take time to be with your boyfriend, fiancé, husband, girlfriend, wife, whomever! Life revealed a secret to me. And it was so simple, its ?okay? and mandatory to stay connected to your partner. In life, there is a difference between existing and living, in a relationship there is a difference between being together and spending time together and like everything else, it requires work and balance. You need to take time for each other, and that is okay.

TRY SO M E LU SCI O U S THO M PSO N LEM O N P U D D I NG CA KE -In another very large bowl, using you electric mixer, whip the butter, sugar, flour and salt together. Add the egg yolks and continue to beat until smooth. -Now add the lemon juice, mixing with the electric mixer until well combined. -Lastly, add the milk slowly as it will splash you. Mix well to combine. -To this mixture, gently add the beaten egg whites, carefully folding them into the lemon mixture. This is a huge amount of batter. I nearly had my bowl overflow the top as I mixed the meringue into the lemon mixture. -Pour the pudding mixture into the prepared 9" x 13" pan. (See my note below .) -Place the roast pan with the pudding in the pan on your middle oven rack. Now carefully pour in the boiling water to come halfway up the outside of your lemon pudding dish. -Bake your pudding for 50 minutes in the 325 degree F. oven. The last 15 minutes, I placed a sheet of tin foil loosely over the top of the pudding to stop overbrowning. -Once done, carefully lift out the pudding still sitting in the pan of boiling water and allow this to sit for 10 minutes. Then you can carefully lift the pudding dish out of the pan of hot water. NOTE: If you divide each ingredient in half, you will make a 9" square pan of pudding and the baking time will be 30 to 35 minutes. -Do not refrigerate leftover pudding, just keep it in a cool place. Serve the baked pudding warm or at room temperature. ENJOY!
If you love lemon, you will love my new recipe for a baked lemon pudding which forms it's own sauce as it bakes. You will bake your pudding in a 'bain Marie' which is just a baking dish holding hot water in which you will place your dish of lemon pudding. This will ensure that your baked pudding will be very tender and the sauce will form as the pudding bakes. Thsi is the most lemony pudding I have tried to date. We just loved it. I wish you all a very happy St. Valentine's Day. Happy birthday to Steven and Jacob, two of our grandsons celebrating their birthdays this week. Enjoy a great week! IN G R E D IE N TS : 1/ 2 cup butter at room temperature 4 tbsp. white sugar (for sprinkling) 1- 3/ 4 cups white sugar 2/ 3 cup unbleached all-purpose flour 1/ 2 tsp. Kosher salt 8 extra large eggs, at room temperature, separated 1 cup lemon juice (I just used my bottle of Real lemon juice, but you can use freshly squeezed if you wish.) 2 cups milk (I used skim milk.) M E TH 0 D : -Preheat your oven to 325 degrees F. Set a kettle of water on to boil. Have your oven rack right in the middle of your oven. -Use 2 tbsp. of the butter to very well grease a 9" x13" baking pan. Sprinkle the 4 tbsp. of white sugar all over the bottom and sides of the buttered 9" x 13" pan. Tip the pan to evenly coat the sugar all over the buttered sides and base. -Place the buttered baking dish into a roasting pan large enough to hold the dish, without having the sides of the pan touch the larger pan. -In a large bowl, break the egg whites, one at a time into a small bowl first, then add each one to your large mixing bowl. Be sure not to get any egg yolks into the egg whites of they will not whip up into a fluffy meringue. Using you electric hand mixer, whip the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Set this aside for now.

PO SITIVELY M ARLENE
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ given way to mass-produced greeting cards. About ÂŁ1.3 billion is spent on cards, flowers, chocolates and other gifts yearly, with an estimated 25 million cards being sent out. The mid-19th century Valentine's Day trade was a fore runner of other "commercialized holidays," in the United States that followed. This practice of exchanging cards was extended to all manner of gifts in the second half of the 20th century. Such gifts that included roses and chocolates that were then packed in heart-shaped, red satin boxes. The ~U.S. Greeting Card Association~ says that about 190 million Valentines are sent out each year in the United States. Teachers are the ones who receive the most Valentines because of the "Valentine Exchange Programs" in the schools. This figure then goes up to 1 billion because of this exchange. Half of the Valentines that are given are to family members, other than to husbands and or wives, and they are usually given to the children. The "Diamond Industry" began to promote "Valentine's Day," as an occasion for giving jewelry as presents in the 1980s. YAAAY for this idea!!! Right Ladies!!!

Hi everyone reading this week's Seeker. I hope that you have managed to stay warm during our Arctic cold spell! The nights are getting shorter and the days are getting longer, which means winter is slowly coming to an end... Well, in about 5 weeks or so, I hope. We are, after all, Canadians living in a "Snow Zone". So get out your snow clothes & boots, your down hill or X-country skis, your skates and toboggans to help keep away those Winter Blues! If we can't beat him (Old Man Winter, that is) then join him and enjoy this time of year instead of complaining about it. You can't change the weather or fix it, so ENJOY IT!!! I have to tell you that my dear friend Wendy and I, and about 200 other beautiful women dressed in pink & black, had a FUNTASTIC ~Girl's Night Out 2~ at the ~Royal Canadian Legion~ ! It was for a wonderful cause, (Baldwin House) and they had the support of all of these wonderful women of the community on Saturday evening. The place looked like a glamorous "Ball Room" that all of us pretty princesses got to enjoy ourselves in. A BIG Thanks goes out to Shelley Harley Green for her Dj *Magic* for the evening and to all of the wonderful volunteers in the Kitchen: Rene, Courtney and Dot, to all of the volunteers on the floor: Patti, Alicia, Cindy, Elaine and Roxy and off course to all of the talented singers: Patti, Laura, Alison, Rose, Jade, Carolin, JoJo, Yvie, Cathy and Lise. All of the karaoke singers did a beautiful job of keeping us entertained throughout the evening. This special "fund raiser" raised about $5000 for ~Baldwin House~!!! Thank you to everyone for your donations of prizes and services. We look forward to doing this all again next year. See you there! This weekend is Valentine's, a time to enjoy the day, (Febuary 14th) that is set aside for remembering those of whom we love and cherish. What are your plans for this "Special Love Day" (that comes around every year at this time???) Dinner? Dancing? Movies? A Hot Date? Whatever your plans are, please think of the many others who may not have anyone or any Valentine plans for themselves. Please do a little something "Special" for the ones that you love. You can give them a call, or send them a card or even just to remind them that you are thinking of them and that you love them. It could and would mean the world to someone that is lonely and sad at this time of year. John and I have been invited for a "Valentine's Dinner Party" at our good friend, Curtis and his fiancee's Raeleen's place this weekend. What a lovely gesture to do something like this, that is so kind and thoughtful for the ones you love and know. John and I look forward to joining them and some others for this "Special Love Day Celebration"!!! For Valentine's Day I thought I would look up and find some interesting facts to share with you. Paper Valentines became so popular in England that in the early 19th century they were made in factories. The "Fancy Valentines," were made with real lace and ribbons. But later on in the 19th century they were made with paper lace that was introduced at this time. In 1835, 60,000 Valentine cards were sent out by post in Britain, even though the postage was very expensive at the time. Ever since the 19th century, the handwritten notes and cards have
At the turn of the millennium with the rise
of internet popularity it created New Traditions for us to follow. Every year, millions of people use digital ways to create and send Valentine's Day messages, such as e-cards, love coupons or printable greeting cards. An estimated 15 million e-Valentines were sent in 2010!!! That sure was a lot of Valentine emails that were sent that year!!! Did you know that the verse," Roses are red," is traceable as far back as Edmund Spenser's epic ~The Faerie Queene~ in (1590)??? It read like this: "She bath'd with roses red, and violets blew, And all the sweetest flowres, that in the forrest grew." The modern clichĂŠ "Valentine's Day poem," can be found in the collection of English nursery rhymes Gammer Gurton's Garland (1784): "The rose is red, the violet's blue, The honey's sweet, and so are you. Thou art my love and I am thine; I drew thee to my Valentine: The lot was cast and then I drew, And Fortune said it shou'd be you." My wish for you is that you all have a very "Happy Valentine's Day," with the ones you love. Many muaaaaahs go out to all of my cherished and avid readers!!! TIP OF THE WEEK: Instead of buying Valentine's cards this year... Why not make them yourselves??? It is so easy to do and it means a bit more and it is so very special when you do. 1. Get yourselves some coloured paper 2. Get some paint, or coloured pens, crayons or markers 3. Design your card on a blank page. (Look at other examples of cards, or look in books and magazines and get some ideas from them.) 4. Take your design and make it on the coloured paper. 5. Add some hearts and other different kinds of fun things like: rainbow sprinkles, flowers, butterflies etc...to make your Valentine card, Sweet and Unique. If you are a lady giving it to your man, put some lipstick on and kiss your card leaving an actual "kiss" from you to him. If you're not so artsy or talented you can still buy some stickers and things to make a Unique card for your handsome or lovely. Or you can make up a coupon for hugs and kisses, or to do something special together for Valentine's Day this year. Until Next Week: Just know that... We are here to Embody LOVE and ENJOY the ADVENTURES of a LIFETIME!!! ~Harold W. Becker~ Marlene Baker of www.fashionography.ca & www.positivelymarlene.ca

G RANT CHILDREN'S TREATMENT CENTRE CHARITY AUCTION AND DINNER The Children?s Treatment Centre held their 14th Annual Charity Auction and Dinner on February 6th. The CTC is a community based, community supported agency committed to the prevention and treatment of child abuse in Cornwall, the United Counties of Stormont, Dundas and Glengarry and Akwesasne. They provide free and immediate assessment and treatment to any child in need and that child?s family. This centre is entirely funded by the community it serves and receives no government funding which makes this annual event a big part of its success. The event held at the Best Western Parkway Plus had its highest attendance this year with 209 people in attendance. It's thanks to the many sponsors, patrons and attendees that this event has helped to raise hundreds of thousands of dollars for the CTC and can continue to help to keep kids safe and treat victims of child abuse.
Ms. Marilyn Van Derbur, founder of Second Cup Mr. Frank O'Dea and many more. The CTC also features a yearly Dinner & Roast in September which offers a rare opportunity to see one of our locally or nationally well-known personalities get roasted by their fellow peers. The Dinner & Roast is a fun-filled event with barbs, playful jabs and comical banter. Past roasted guests include MP Guy Lauzon, NHL Player Mr. John Wensink and Father Kevin Maloney among others. The CTC is always looking for volunteers and supporters to help out with our many events and fundraisers. You can contact the Children?s Treatment Centre at 613-933-4400 or visit their website at http:/ / www.ctc-sdg.com
CORNWALL & AREA'S 13TH ANNUAL BRIDAL SHOW It was lucky 13 for Cornwall & Area's 13th Annual Bridal Show, held on February 8th. Despite the bad weather, this year's attendance was the highest it has been in the past 6 years. More than 350 guests attended the show with more than 100 registered brides to visit with exhibitors who were on hand to help them plan the wedding of their dreams. The event is also open to the general public as many of the products and services offered can be used for all occasions. While this particular show does not generally feature a Fashion Show as part of its regular schedule, it did feature 42 exhibitors, some exciting prizes and grows every year. If you missed out on this year's show and would like to participate next year, please contact Carol Grant by email at cornwallbridalshow@hotmail.com.
Every year, guests enjoy a fun filled evening which boasts a silent auction, an excellent meal, a live auction with auctioneer Theresa Taylor & Associates and the chance to bid on items graciously donated by supporters and patrons of the Children's Treatment Centre. As stated by Angie Baker, committee member, "We are all here because we have something in common - we all love children". Items up for bid this year included a Chef in the House, golf green fees, Apple iPad, hockey tickets and jewelry, just to name a few. One of the other highlights of the evening is the auctioning of some delicious and showstopping desserts made by local baker/ chef Judy Stewart. This year, her four desserts raised more than $1100. The evening's events raised an astounding total of nearly $51,000 thanks to the generosity of everyone in attendance. You can help support the Children's Treatment Centre by attending any of their great fundraisers. The Bike-A-Thon Plus 2015 will be held on May 23rd and will feature a day of family fun at the St. Lawrence College with face painting, pony rides, games, children?s activities and more. The Celebrity Walk & Breakfast, their largest fundraiser and attended by over a thousand people every year will be held on October 30th. It was started by the Standard-Freeholder in 1997 and continues to bring together hundreds of concerned supporters to celebrate success, to listen to a special Guest Speaker and to congratulate the Celebrities who make this campaign a success for the children. Past guest speakers have included former Miss America (2010)
GIRLS NIGHT OUT 2 Girls Night Out 2 was held on February 7th at the Royal Canadian Legion and featured a WOMEN ONLY night of shopping, a silent auction, chinese auction, supper and dancing. Women vendors were set up for the ladies in attendance to shop for all of their favourite things such as jewelry, clothing, cosmetics, housewares and of course, chocolate! A delicious spaghetti supper including buns, salads and dessert was served and the ladies were entertained with DJ Shelley Harley-Green and guest karaoke singers. The event, which only cost $15 admission was in support of Baldwin House. Many sponsors donated gift certificates and prizes to
help raise funds. Value Village was also credited for donating 18 pairs of high heels which were combined with flowers donated by Blooms as the centerpieces which were beautiful! Approximately $5,000 was raised during the evening. Please plan to attend next year's event if you missed out this year - it's a definite night of fun with the girls in support of
a worthy cause.

Becoming Ind ep end ent
w it h Young L iving
Caitlyn Richer writes: ?Independent distributor? is the term they choose to use when you make the choice to partner with Young Living, however; this term means so much more to me. I?d like to share with you how I became independent through my Young Living business, not only in respects to the financial aspect but becoming independent in terms of my health as well.
FEATURE OF THE WEEK
When I decided to partner with Young Living, it was solely based on my health. I had interest too in the business side of it, but I had a huge list of health problems I was told I could manage through simple changes in diet and products. I was experiencing serious digestive issues, mental health issues, skin issues, and immune system issues. It was normal for me to have 3-4 strep throat infections, on top of the regular 2-3 colds & 2-3 flus per year. YES, I was sick most of the time. Since using Young Living products, I haven?t had a strep throat infection or flu in over two years and my cold symptoms last about 2 days. I have not been in a walk-in clinic since and my monthly doctors visits have stopped. I have become INDEPENDENT with my health as well as my finances. My personal victory over illness has turned into a deep passion to help others deal with their illness. This led me to offer various massage services that include Essential Oils. I would like to offer you a discount with the coupon herein.

M O RRELL THE SECRET TO HAVING MORE TIME, MORE SPACE AND MORE MONEY Part 2 of 2 Planning Your Routine Another way to stay on top of things is to have a written down plan. Therefore: Take the time to develop a routine, using a calendar or spreadsheet accommodating your lifestyle, to ensure all of the rooms and all their content get cleaned on a regular basis. Think how often you use a room. For example the bathrooms and the kitchen need to be cleaned more often; this is just common sense. Then the bedrooms, laundry and family rooms should be next. Also take into consideration the seasons. Do a little bit of your weekly chores each day ensuring one day does not have more chores than the others.
BOOKYOU R BOOTHTODAY...
ONLY A FEW LEFT!
Before starting put everything you need for the one day chores, in a basket and keep it a centralized location.
In each room, save the dirtiest areas for last, i.e., when cleaning the bathroom, do the toilet last. This way you do not have to keep changing the rags and soap cleaning water. Depending on the amount of people living under your roof, consider getting some help from the rest of the household.
Food For Thought Families are extremely busy these days. It's not uncommon even in a two-parent household to have both parents working full-time, and for those couples who have children in school and involved in other activities, time is a very precious commodity. In all of the commotion of work, the various errands needing to be run and the taxiing around of family members, household chores can get lost in the shuffle, which can add even more stress to an already-stressful situation. These are the reasons why many families turn to professional organizer and cleaning help to keep their home clutter free, organized, and clean
