| There is no doubt that we witnessed on Friday 11th March what will be considered one of the most significant natural disasters in the Pacific Region for many years.

| Constant Media Coverage: How it affects your children!
When a traumatic event happens there is instantly a virtually continuous loop of 24-hour TV news coverage which inflicts our children with images of death and destruction. The sound and sights of bleeding shattered bodies, many of them children, and possible worst of all the shouted often hysterical comments of reporters about these events inundate us. Like the coverage of a War, the news coverage of a traumatic event can be equally disturbing to viewers, both young and old. | | |

| Work-life Balance Arrangements Beneficial for All
Flexible working-time arrangements are advantageous for both employers and employees a recent European survey has found. | | |

In the past few years organisations have changed their hiring strategies to include not only people who are well trained and have the expertise desired, but who can also demonstrate that they can handle themselves and others in a variety of work situations. This can be demonstrated through having empathy, being persuasive, showing initiative and getting on well with others.
