This was a new idea to me and I wonder who the "lifelong SOPHE" members are and where this ideas is coming from and what it really means. Like others I am a member of several health education organizations, SOPHE (local and national) and AAHE, and the idea of one organization has merit and warrants discussion on this list. Meanwhile, it's membership time in the world of SOPHE, and I welcome any PacificNorthwest based health educators (Alaska, Idaho, Oregon, Washington, British Columbia) to consider PacificNorthwest SOPHE.

Everyone was working out and trying not to be conspicuous about noticing Arnold in our midst. One fellow, however, was trying desperately to draw the attention of the world champion. He was frantically and most sloppily attempting to perform a set of dumbell curls with a pair of 60's in front of Arnold, who was using a pair of 30's. Finally, after much flailing and showing off, he spoke to the Master, "Hey, Arnold!" (all eyes were upon him, all activity halted) "Why are you using 30's while *I'm* using 60's"? he jousted. Arnold calmly looked about the room and quietly replied in his Austrian accent, "Because *I'm* Arnold Schwarzenegger, and I don't NEEEED to use 60's!"

Rather than just delete that "free subscription" or other ad, try this: send the entire message, unaltered, back to the sender (or both senders if there appears to be a company involved). If you want to be really polite, include a message letting them know why you are responding in this way. Consider the effects of such action if it were universal. If the several hundred members of this list alone each returned their messages, the advertiser's host computer would be crowded with their own junk mail. They might get the message. I have tried this with incorrigible advertisers/publishers at home too. The entire package -- envelope and all -- are stuffed into the little postage-paid return envelope that is often supplied and mailed back. Junk mail is more than annoying. The advertisers costs are subsidized by you and I: Bulk mailers pay reduced postage rates.

Kittleson (GA3748@SIUCVMB.SIU.EDU)" Subject: Updated info Greetings fellow health educators: It was nice to see so many faces at APHA (or should I say it's nice to put faces with e-mail names). A few things... 1.) As indicated before the two conferences (APHA and ASHA), I would like to invite individuals to share with us any of the interested sessions, discussions, current events that you may have had while attending the two conferences. I would imagine that many of the HEDIR subscribers who didn't attend would find this of interest. 2.) Also related to ASHA and APHA...if you found any interesting session that gave handouts, or if you presented and would like your handout available to all who couldn't attend or didn't attend the conferences, please send it to me via e-mail at the following address: KITTLE@SIU.EDU Keep in mind that if you send it as an attached document, please send it via mime or binhex... not uuencode. If in doubt, send it via ascii. You must send it to KITTLE@SIU.EDU It'll be available on the e-mail home page around November 15. 3.) From my discussions with many of you at APHA, many are not aware that the directories are available on the world wide web. So, if you have netscape (or something similar), you can get up to date copies of the directories by tapping into the following address: http://www.siu.edu/departments/coe/hedrec/HEDIR/Menu.html please note that the address is case-sensitive 4.) Fourth (and finally), many of you indicated an up-to-date copy of the directories. For most of this year I have indicated that you can get weekly updates by tapping into the filemanager here at SIU. It may be difficult for some to do, so I'm sending up to date directories to all. If you don't need them, just erase them. It was good seeing so many of you. Thanks for your input on this system. Have a nice November.

So, assuming that I'll receive permission relatively soon, I hope to send out the issue #5 addendum within a couple weeks. Thank you for your patience! :) =========================================================================== NEWS ---- In issue #1, I mentioned that I came across a quarterly magazine called "Survivor: A Creative Journal by Men and Women Survivors of Sexual Assault."

Many, many thanks to publisher Greg Barton for all his help in putting Survivor online! :) SAIP's section on Child Sexual Abuse has expanded quite a bit thanks to the incredible efforts of Nancy Faulkner, M.S. (NFHV58B@prodigy.com). Nancy has provided SAIP with lots of great information about her Sexual Abuse Recognition and Non-Disclosure Inventory (SARANDI), as well as information on determining if a child is being sexually assaulted and how to help children get help. I urge everyone to take a look at Nancy's work--you can find it listed on the info page under the "Child Sexual Abuse" section.

Those interested should please drop me a note and let me know. (I understand that some would rather not have their name, email, etc. posted on the WWW, so I won't add requests appearing in the newsletters to the "Requests" page unless specifically asked to do so) I'm considering making the page multilingual--unfortunately my foreign language skills (3 years of French and 2 years of Chinese) are rather pathetic, so I'm on the lookout for expert translators (the usage statistics suggest that I should begin with German, French, Japanese and Spanish) who are willing to translate SAIP's documents for very little money (i.e. for free :) If you or someone you know would be interested, please let me know. Since the page is getting rather lengthy, I'm considering splitting it up a bit, probably something like Yahoo. I'd appreciate any thoughts or suggestions for a better format. I am currently designing a search engine for the page (a nice practical application for the Information Retrieval class I'm taking this semester :) I hope to have it operational by December or January. =========================================================================== MY TWO CENTS ------------ I had the unfortunate opportunity to watch part of "Saturday Nite Live" on October 28th (for those of you not familiar with the TV show, it's a weekly variety show on NBC that tries very hard to be comical, but as far as I'm concerned, doesn't do a very good job, and hasn't for a number of years). I've never been much of a fan of the show, but I ended up watching the last half, and now I really regret it. I was absolutely furious and disgusted after seeing a particular sketch shown towards the end of the show. It involved a prison warden reprimanding and firing a guard because he had been repeatedly "beaten and raped" not only by other prisoners, but by other guards and even the warden himself. (And it even went as far to suggest that victims enjoy it!) So not only was it *extremely* tasteless, it just perpetuated the same old myths. I was absolutely sickened to think that some people find rape comical, so I wrote Lorne Michaels (SNL's producer) expressing my anger and disgust, (including about 10 pages from a book detailing the facts about rape, and prison rape in particular) and demanded an immediate, formal apology to the entire viewing audience. It'll be interesting to see if I even get a response--I must admit I'm not expecting one. =========================================================================== ========================================================================= #978 Date: Wed, 8 Nov 1995 15:29:03 -0600 From: Undetermined origin c/o Postmaster A health education colleague who is about to join a group of physicians as a private practitioner heath educator is very interested in resources for liability and/or malpractice is needing to know if there are any resources for health educators?

I received a call from a local high school teacher who is concerned about discussion in his district (Beaverton OR) to implement their health curriculum through an "infusion" model. The teacher (a PE specialist) believes the move is an attempt by district administrators to eliminate health education specialists at the secondary level. Further, the PE specialists on the committee are endorsing this approach since the district is also moving to eliminate many of their positions as well. The concerned teacher is upset because some of these teachers have demonstrated a history of limited interest, background and motivation to teach health effectively in the past. Here's the gist of my request: Does anyone have any journal articles or published research that discuss different models (and their effectiveness) for delivering health education at the high school level? Are there any documents that detail how infusion must be done to insure that health education doesn't get lost? Even if you are unable to identify specific documents that address these questions, I would encourage any of you to respond to these questions from a professional standpoint. I believe that the responses of professionals in the field, particularly those responses based on observations and experience, will also help to guide the curriculum review process in Beaverton. Thank you in advance.

Let's all think of and thank a veteran tomorrow. It seems to me: That our biggest challenge as academics and educators is to remain humble enough to continue to learn from humble sources of knowledge and wisdom. Most of the important things I've learned about life I've learned from my dog. I'll take her hiking, for instance, I'll be set on attaining the goal such as the lake, the top of the mountain, maybe a big view at the end of the trail. If I fail to acheive the goal, I'm disappointed. My dog, on the other hand, is filled with puppy exuberance; she runs for the sake of running, she plays, smells, hunts, and romps. Rain or mud only make it that much more fun to her. EVERY trip to her is a great time. She always arrives at the truck happy, refreshed, and pleasantly exhausted. She licks my face and says, "Thanks Boss, that was our best trip ever!" Good dog, >wise< dog! Some highlights of lessons my dog has taught me: 1) Don't just stop and smell the roses--smell everything! 2) Always make time for a daily nap. 3) Love unconditionally and be loyale to those who love you. 4) (and remember) If it ain't big, wet, and sloppy--it ain't a kiss!

This outline was developed from the wonderful lecture given by Dr. Bill Cissell to my class several years ago. . . - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - for this discussion NOMINAL means "a minimal phrase or word description of ideas." GROUP means "a small to medium sized group of people from 4-10 people." PROCESS means "it is a step-wise procedure." . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Considerations: It has the advantage of providing for a lack of dominance of the groupby verbal aggressive people. It is similar to brainstorming. There is no criticism of anyone's ideas. It gives quiet people opportunities to gain self confidence. It is the best use of the Democratic process. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . STEPS: 1. Form group(s)- elect or appoint a recorder 2. Each person then lists five ideas they have related to the problem on their own paper. THERE IS NO CRITIQUE OF ANY IDEA BY THE INDIVIDUAL OR GROUP 3.(Use a blackboard or large piece of paper (flip chart) placed near the group to list these ideas. 4. The recoder writes each person's nominal phrase on the blackboard or paper for everyone to see. 5. Each group CONSOLIDATES their ideas by mutual agreement between each party. 6. Each person within a group now ranks the five best ideas from "5" being the best to "1" being th lowest. 7. The recorder then places everone's rankings by the idea and then totals their sum. (5+4+2 etc.) 8. The five best (highest scores) are re-written on the paper or board. 9. If there is more than one group, then the leader is to conduct a CONSOLIDATION between the groups and a new ranking is done. 10. ALTERNATIVES . . . list the highest ranked idea from each group . . . or now list the highest three and either ask the group to meet again for the final selection. Or obtain a consensus immediately about the best idea. A great way to involve everyone in the decision making process. Try it - you'll like it. Regards John R.

Dooley" Subject: Dealing with junk mail For those of you who have been having problems returning the junk mail, I suggest that you really look at what is being sent to you. Often it tells you where to send it in the middle of the message. It is NOT the return address at the header. This is so that people who come up with the solution that some of you have (namely, to return it to them) can't easily do so. Wehave all run into similar problems, like when personal replys to a general message sent over the Hedir, are returned to everyone on this list. So pay attention to return addresses, CC lists, etc...they are there for a reason. :-) Lea Dooley ========================================================================= #1003 Date: Mon, 13 Nov 1995 11:27:00 EST From: David Foulk Subject: Re: AOIS Approved News Release: World's *Cheapest* Way to get Form: Vacation Request Dates: From From Date: to: On Date: for: Comments: Please give us a vacation from unsolicited ads ========================================================================= #1004 Date: Mon, 13 Nov 1995 11:29:00 EST From: David Foulk Subject: Re: BREATHTAKING COMPENSATION WITH UNLIMITED FREE TRAVEL Form: Vacation Request Dates: From From Date: to: On Date: for: Comments: Give us a vacation from unsolicited advertisements ========================================================================= #1005 Date: Mon, 13 Nov 1995 11:40:00 EST From: David Foulk Subject: Re: Health curriculum infusion When I first saw this request I was interested and saved it because I thought the time might come when we would face similar questions here. I did not realize it would come so quickly. It seems we are seeing comprehensive school health as the mechanism for "infusion" and the join of both Health Education with Physical Education content in the process. Physical Education very much wants in and wants to play a major role in the comprehensive school health education movement. They are taking the opportunity to move in this area because Health Education here is much smaller in numbers and thus perceived to be open for pillage (my perception). I wonder if any of your responses could be of help to us here. Thank you for the time.

Kittleson (GA3748@SIUCVMB.SIU.EDU)" Subject: Junk Mail Recently, there has been some discussion about sending "junk" mail back to the sender. In theory that is a great idea..but in reality it won't work. Most e-mail advertisers use a system in which their system cannot receive messages but only send them. This prevents people like us (who are peeved at them) from sending back nasty memos. I handle it by sending a fax to them (if a fax number is sent), but basically there's little that can be done. To reiterate, the HEDIR list is a public list. What that means is that it is listed among listservs. In fact, I believe you can request a list of all listservs from the university of Georgia (that's the uga that you sometimes see). It's important that HEDIR is a public list so that people can find us (those that have a legitimate need), but we are also vulnerable to junk mail solicitors. As indicated several weeks ago, when our system is capable, I will be editing all memos and forwarding those that are only health related memos. I guess technically this is censoring, but I will not censor any health related info, only the "junk mail". Until our system here at SIU can do that we'll have to put up with it. I will say, all these people need is ONE person to respond positively (in other words buy something) to keep them going. If we all ignore them (not buy any- thing) that will show them that e-mail is not the way to promote their product. So, if you are concerned about receiving this junk, please don't purchase anything from them (no matter how good it sounds). Later....

I'm sorry. I consulted with the experts here at SIU and found that it is possible for someone to "disguise their trail" or even access servers illegally to get ads out to people. Given the dislike for junk mail, I can understand why advertisers would want to do this. The good news is that I found out it is possible to limit access to the list to members of the list: only members could send mail out over the HEDIR. Anyone trying to send mail to the HEDIR that was not a member of the list would simply have their mail returned to them automatically. Another list here at SIU was having similar problems with junk mail; the decision was made to implement the more restrictive system and they report that it has been very successful. There are, of course, some good and bad points to adopting such a system.

WP ---------- Forwarded message ---------- HUMOR + by Mike Corso 11/11/95 poetry free "THE GINGRINCH THAT STOLE CONGRESS" by Mike Corso CNI Telecom Every Rep down in Congress liked Clinton somewhat, Except for Newt Gingrinch, who simply did NOT! He hated Bill Clinton! He hated his wife! He vowed to torment them the rest of his life! The Ging hated anyone left of the Huns, He hated the wusses who didn't like guns. He hated the teachers who wouldn't lead prayers, He hated the people who'd tax millionaires! He hated "McGoverniks" whining 'bout rights, Like equal protection for gays and nonwhites. He hated the folks who said "Nicotine kills" And vowed he would pass more pro-nicotine bills. He hated the folks who said "Women need choice" And vowed to give middle-aged males more voice. But he hated the people on welfare much more; He hated the way they were POOR POOR POOR! He hated the way they had no jobs at all! This struck him as heaploads of GALL GALL GALL! They also lacked training and day care. So what? The Gingrinch announced he'd come up with a plot: "Get off of Welfare! Get off today! Or we will take all of your children AWAY!" Now, no one knew what made the Ging such a meanie: It could be because he was built like a weenie. It could be because he had Donahue hair, Or maybe because not much lurked under there. But probably what most explained the man's life Was the fact he abandoned his children and wife. Yes, 'way down in Georgia, his wife lay near dead Sickened with cancer, in a hospital bed. He crept in to see her (they let him, of course) And whispered, quite sweetly, "I want a divorce!" He whipped out his pencil with something like zeal And got down to work on his alimony deal. And while she was whimpering he said, "By the way, I'm leaving for somebody younger - hooray!!" The Gingrinch's heart shrank two sizes that night. And that may be what makes him so far Christian Right. Now, the night before Congress the Ging hatched his plans: From now on he'd speak for, quote, "Normal Americans." Tax-slashers! That's what those "Normal" folks lov! He'd take to the skies and dismantle the gov! He jumped out of bed and he summoned his pet: A Doberman Pinscher who once killed a vet. George was his name (as in Wallace, not Bush); "Boy!" said the Gingrinch, "We're gonna whip tush!" They flew to a soup kitchen, filled with sad "bums," Snatched up the kettle and stole all the crumbs. They flew to a basketball game late at night And shooed the kids out, to the dealers' delight. They unplugged mass transit and cried "Buy a car!" Then chopped down a forest and chomped a cigar. What bliss! What fun! What downright glee! What joy! What yuks! What great TV! The next day the Gingrinch sat high above you And looked down on Congress (as many folks do). He wanted to relish the joy and the cheer Of folks waking up to their first tax-free year. He waited and waited and waited some more; He waited to hear them cry "Newt! Take the floor!" He waited for kudos and champagne free-flowing, He waited for trumpets on high to start blowing. But instead of rejoicing and hoopla, etc., He heard a strange rumble that made his palms wettah The people weren't happy, not happy at all! They ringed 'round the Statehouse! They filled up the hall! They groused and they grumbled and cried, "We're real mad! We want all those costly old programs we had! Give back our givebacks! Give back our pork! Give back the stuff you walked off with, you dork!" And the Gingrinch sat simply quite stunned at the sight Of Normal Americans, not left and not right, Who wanted clean air and wanted green trees, Who wanted full coverage for medical fees, Who wanted nice schools and streets safe to play -- They wanted it all - but just wouldn't pay! And when the truth hit him, the Ging grinned a grin, He laughed and he laughed till the tears ran down his chin. The Clintons climbed up to the Dome, laughing too. "Hee hee hee," Bill and Hill laughed, "Hoo hoo hoo!" They laughed with the cheer that comes from within, They laughed with the knowledge: You just cannot win. The Gingrinch and Clintons now shared the same plight Whatever they'd do, they could not do it right. "Folks hate you," said Bill, "once you land in D.C. But I've got a plan: Let us bond, you and me. We'll work as a team, yes! That's my advice! We'll listen and nod and make NICE NICE NICE!" The Prez put his hand out, they hugged on the ledge... And then that old Gingrinch pushed Bill off the edge.
