Much of the information now available about our province is aimed at young readers and people with at least a high school education. The Hitch-Hiker is intended to provide information which beginning adult readers can read and understand. This work has a special feature we hope readers will appreciate and enjoy. Many of the places written about in this book are seen through the eyes of an adult learner and other fictional characters. These characters were created to help add a touch of reality to the printed page.

    PAGE B6 NORTHERN PEN, MONDAY, NOVEMBER 29, 2010 Book provides $100,000 for those affected by devastation Continued from page B4 doesn’t generally cover wind damage, Budgell said. Things like sheds, tools, toys, electronics and furniture could be among the things the assis- tance fund might cover. “Any time we get this kind of money, we always look at what we can do with it,” said Aubrey Vin- cent, the Salvation Army’s Emergency Disaster Services team co-ordinator, adding the team has been getting many calls from seniors. “Early on, it’s not clear what the needs are, but there are needs out there, no question about it. “The key message we want to give is that we are here now, and we are able to process quickly - usu- ally within a week.” “Hurricane Igor” is a collection of more than 100 photos gathered by The Telegram and six oth- er Transcontinental community newspapers across the island, The Charter, The Compass, The Southern Gazette, The Packet, The Beacon and The Pilot - as well as readers, who submitted their Olaf and Simone Patt, a German couple from Schwetzingen, have spent the past three months touring through Newfoundland and Labrador as part of own pictures - during the height of the storm, as well a world adventure. CLARISSA SMITH as the aftermath. A section of the book is also dedicated to the rebuilding efforts, on the part of community resi- dents, the military and government workers. “Hurricane Igor” is dedicated to the memory of 80-year-old Allen Duffett of Random Island, who died when the driveway on which he was standing Vagabonds at heart was washed away by the current.

    2014 NEWSLETTER Training aims to promote equality, respect among youth Bullying has been identified as an ongo- ing issue within many schools and communi- ties throughout Labrador. Professional and community agencies have come together to develop a long-term strategy to address the problem in the Labrador Straits. This group includes Labrador Straits Academy (LSA), the Southern Labrador-Strait of Belle Isle Com- munity Youth Network, Labrador-Grenfell Health, the RCMP, Public Health, Violence Prevention Labrador (VPL), parents, youth and clergy. Bullying is complex and we want to avoid misdirections, including encouraging zero tolerance, peer mediation, promoting an epi- demic of suicide, and piecemeal activities. Long -term, holistic and sustainable solutions are key to our planning and there are a number of best practice models to assist with this approach.
