EOC: Sexual Harassment

First of all, I really think Sexual Harassment should take things SERIOUSLY!!! I mean when the man Harassed a woman it's a crime ok fine, but it should be as equal as to a woman Harassing the male! I think she should get charge just as a guy would for his Sexual Harassment!  It's far! Just like if a woman hits a guy, if the guy DEFEND himself he's in trouble, what about that woman hits on the guy for no reason?! I'm sorry but if a woman fights like a guy, she deserves to get punch by a guy! Every crime should be treating equally! Man and Woman has every right to file suit, it should be the same as the same sex! Sexual Harassment is SEXUAL HARASSMENT!! The rules I’ve learned when I was a Job Corps about how to know someone is Sexual Harassment on you, by the way they lean over for a hug, if they have their butts out that’s a different hug, if they want to get to close to you type of hug, that can be sexual harassment. Placing hands o the shoulders if they leave their hands on the shoulders for to long it can sexual harassment! Just the tape is fine.

“The liberal idea of tolerance is more and more a kind of intolerance. What it means is 'Leave me alone; don't harass me; I'm intolerant towards your over-proximity.”

What You Can Do If You Are Sexually Harassed*

Every instance of sexual harassment is different. The strategy you choose will depend on many factors, including how much you can afford to risk losing your job and whether you feel you can get support from your co-workers. Race and class differences may also affect how you respond, partly because these differences in a workplace can isolate workers from one another. As you think about whether and how you might respond to sexual harassment, here are some things to consider:

• Remember that you are not to blame. Sexual harassment is imposed sexual attention. No matter how complicated the situation is, the harasser is responsible for the abuse.
• Document what happens. Keep a detailed diary including dates, times, and places. Save any notes or pictures from the harasser--don't throw them away in anger. Keep a record of anyone who witnessed the harassment.
• Investigate your workplace or school policy and grievance procedure for sexual harassment cases. Know its overall records before you act.
• Generate support for yourself before you take action: Break the silence, talk with others, and ask for help in working out a response.
• Look for others who have been harassed who can act with you. Collective action and joint complaints strengthen your position. Try to use organizations that already exist, such as your union or employee organization, or an advocacy organization for your particular racial or ethnic group.
• Let the harasser know as directly and explicitly as possible that you are not interested in his attentions. If you do this in writing, keep a copy of your letter.

“When a stranger on the street makes a sexual comment, he is making a private assessment of me public. And though I’ve never been seriously worried that I would be attacked, it does make me feel unguarded, unprotected. 

Regardless of his motive, the stranger on the street makes an assumption based on my physique: He presumes I might be receptive to his unpoetic, unsolicited comments. (Would he allow a friend to say “Nice tits” to his mother? His sister? His daughter?) And although I should know better, I, too, equate my body with my soul and the result, at least sometimes, is a deep shame of both. 

Rape is a thousand times worse: The ultimate theft of self-control, it often leads to a breakdown in the victim’s sense of self-worth. Girls who are molested, for instance, often go on to engage in risky behavior—having intercourse at an early age, not using contraception, smoking, drinking, and doing drugs. This behavior, it seems to me, is at least in part because their self-perception as autonomous, worthy human beings in control of their environment has been taken from them.”

Sweetwater Travel

 Brazil

Formerly known as the Royal Amazon Lodge, 
the Agua Boa Amazon Lodge is located on a small clear water tributary of the Amazon perfectly suited for peacock bass. The Agua Boa is a crystal clear with a white sand bottom. Imagine a small river flanked by Varzea flood forest and Gallery forests still in pristine shape with all of its great wildness still intact. The crowns of many of the hardwood trees in the Gallery forest reach heights of 200 feet and all of the species are still present. It is not uncommon to find beaches filled with the tracks of the endangered Amazon River turtles, tapir and even jaguar. Nothing could be more spectacular for an angler than the return ride to the lodge after a great day of fishing through meandering bends of this great watershed as the forest comes to life each evening.

The River

The Agua Boa River is the Amazon’s first and only fishery managed to require catch and release and single barbless hooks. The Agua Boa Amazon Lodge is the only lodge or settlement on the river and, together in cooperation with the Brazilian Institute for Protection of the Amazon, has helped place the Agua Boa into an area of permanent protection. The Agua Boa is one of the few areas of the Amazon that you should not see another inhabitant during your entire stay.
The Agua Boa River is a small clear water river flowing over white sand. The river begins high in the Mocidade mountains to its confluence with the Branco river. The river is absolutely spectacular. It is flanked by a combination of upland forest, flood forest and savannah with all of its wildlife still intact. This combination of pristine and varied habitats makes for both interesting and scenic fishing. It is common to see tapir, monkeys, manatee, river otters, parrots, toucans, macaws, anteater, sloths, peccary, agouti, and even the occasional jaguar. 

The Fishing

Clients will fish two to a boat with one guide. The guides have been trained extensively and have many years of experience guiding for peacock bass. They are not bilingual but are somewhat conversant in fishing English and will understand your needs. After breakfast, you are welcome to fish with your guide until 6 pm.

The rivers and tributaries around the Royal Amazon Lodge are rich and diverse. Possible species include the three species of peacocks: the butterfly (up to 10 pounds), the paca or spotted (up to 20 pounds), and the temensis (up to 24 pounds).  Peacock Bass are perhaps one of the toughest gamefish around. Their topwater strike is often so ferocious that the entire fish will fly several feet of the water with the fly. Once hooked peacocks exhibit a savvy toughness unknown to trout and largemouth fisherman. A large peacock is unstoppable on its first few runs. Anglers can only hope that the fish stays well away from the structure. This is usually their second escape route. Most fish go aerial in a tarpon like display... gills rattling as they fly end over end... only to run again. They are a not for the weak of heart. Everyone that fishes the Royal Amazon will return with stories of stripped reels, destroyed tackle and memories of giants that couldn't be stopped. 

The Lodge

The Agua Boa Amazon Lodge is located on a quiet stretch of the Agua Boa river. At the lodge, clients are attended by a friendly Brazilian staff. We have kept the size of the lodge small to afford anglers a great expanse of fishing water and to insure that the atmosphere at the lodge is a pleasant one. For those of you that have traveled on houseboats with 14-20 bass fisherman crammed into a small space, the attraction of the Agua Boa Amazon is an obvious one. It is the small family atmosphere and sheer elegance of the lodge that have made the Agua Boa Amazon a success.

The Agua Boa Amazon Lodge was built in 2001 by the owner and operator, Dr. Jan Wilt. In 2007, it sold to Lance Ranger, a former client of the lodge. Lance and his staff have continued the tradition of excellence at the lodge and the Agua Boa Amazon Lodge offers a very superior lodging/fishing experience for Peacock Bass in the Amazon. 

The lodge is a spacious facility with a large dining room, a living room, bar and game room. The game room has a snooker table, ping pong table, darts and an endless array of games from chess to backgammon. There is also an entertainment area with a DVD player, and satellite TV. The lodge also has a great porch with an eating area, hammocks and sitting area. 

Outside there is a 20 meter swimming pool and bar area and a volleyball and soccer field. The Agua Boa Amazon has the finest facility in the peacock bass world. Combine the accommodations with the small capacity at the lodge, and you will not find a better buy in the Amazon.

French Polynesia, Tahiti, the South Pacific – all three terms are synonymous beautiful, white sand with images of beaches set along an endless sea of vitreous blue water. Tahiti trips are very popular among people with different interests. Today, in addition to its beauty, French Polynesia is becoming known for its vast flats and world class bonefishing.
 

With hundreds of uninhabited atolls, French Polynesia offers a rare undiscovered fishery in today’s world making a Tahiti trip appealing to fishermen.  Similarly, if you are a fisherman looking for a way to convince your spouse that you should be able to take one more fishing trip this year, then French Polynesia is a great option. Haven’t you always wanted to ask, “hey honey, you want to go fishing in Tahiti?”

Sweetwater Travel has led nine years of exploratory Tahiti trips to this special area of the South Pacific. The results have been very good, and we are now offering six weeks of for next winter.  

Our Tahiti trips operate in the vast Tuamotu archipelago of Polynesia. Over the past ten years, Sweetwater has explored a large number of atolls. Through our exploration, we have identified two quality itineraries which will introduce the angler to remote, undeveloped atolls holding quality numbers of bonefish.

 French Polynesia’s strength is the size of its bonefish. Our trips have yielded one fish which measured 33 inches and several fish between 25 and 30 inches. Overall, the average fish weighed about six pounds with most anglers landing between 3 and 6 bonefish per day.  Our fishermen have been impressed with the quality of the fishing with seasoned bonefishermen describing the fishing as “world class”.  

Our French Polynesia trips are fishing trips, but, like all Sweetwater trips, they are designed to maximize fishing time while insuring that you have the opportunity to experience the wonders of this part of the South Pacific. This year’s groups included one group of three couples and another of six men. Both groups thoroughly enjoyed themselves. Groups are limited to six. Single rates are available. 

This is a very special trip in a very special part of the world. Please join us!

Monster Expire by adds

I like how Mr. Vernillion encourage people to take plenty of pictures, I've always wanted to go fishing. My dad always says we'll see, that never came sadly. If I every want to go fishing I would like to go to Mr. Vermillion's fly fishing place. If it doesn't cost so much. The ideal of staying there for three days, with no shower, kinda set me off a bit. I do not want anyone smelling me, not only that camping outside? I hate most bugs even SPIDERS!! I do not want to feel them crawling around me! I also get very scared very easily, I may not sleep through those three nights, because of bears or anything that can injure me or anyone, I want to live thanks. Overall the fishing thing is much better than camping for three days, I would like to try it someday, if I have enough money.

Week 4: Personal Hygiene

I think hygiene is the most important of our everyday lives, I mean I do not want to hire someone who have very poor hygiene, that can ruin my business, and/or make my employees very uncomfortable that makes them not want to show up for work. I'll talk to them personally and being nice about it I mean i do not want to hurt anyones feelings.

It goes to the same way for costumers no ones wants to smell someone who walks in the door and smelling someone that makes anyone uncomfortable, I'll makes the employees do not want to help them as much. I also makes other costumers may not want to be around in the business if someone smells every time.

In a restaurant is very important, if someone smells they can carry germs and it can make people sick if they eat or drink anything. Also it is very important the cooks and chef always have clean aprons, if it's still dirty form last night or weeks ago that's germs that can transfer to their food. They should always keep their station clean.

For the fashion they still need to smell good, if a model needs to wear their cloths for the fashion show they need to smell good or otherwise their smell can transfer their cloths and no one wants to buy them because of smelly arm pits.

“Love is a boomerang dripped in honey, in that it emanates from me just as surely as it will return to me. Still, I think I’d much rather wash my hands and be done with it.”

“I wash my hands before putting them in sanitation gloves.”

Ya know what I do almost every day? I wash. Personal hygiene is part of the package with me.

Jim Carrey

The Secretary of Hygiene or Physical Culture will be far more important in the cabinet of the President of the United States who holds office in the year 2035 than the Secretary of War.

Nikola Tesla

All mental hygiene is based on the core practice of doing nothing. Most of us are good at wasting time, staring at the wall while telling ourselves we should be working. We call this doing nothing, but our brains are furiously active. We think constantly, and our thinking is often rife with distress.

Martha Beck

I think that carrying on a life that is meant to be private in public is a breach of taste, common sense, and mental hygiene.

Myrna Loy

Hygiene is, as important as ABC Always Be Clean.

Stay clean to attract friends, not flies!

Be fresh and flirty! Not foul and dirty!

He who has health, has hope. And he who has hope, has everything.

Hire or Not Hire

I think they should look at the background, what if they don't change at all. So I'm a little ehh on it but, you really can judge a book by it's cover. Like covering up for a friend, instead of the friend putting in jail the guy who's in jail don't need to be in it, or someone comes in at the right place at the wrong time and gets blamed for something he or she didn't do. Those are ok to hire, but if they done something really bad then no. They do not need to be hire, it's for everyone safety to not hire someone who has a bad criminal record. Like I said, it they were to put on blame or covering up as a friend. They might be ok to hire however, need to keep close eye on them, in case if something were to happen.

Week2 Returning Veteran

As watching the movie American snipper it touched me when seeing the main character shooting the mother then her child. It would be tough to shoot a child, if anyone returns home from the war would stick that to them. Of course he or she well have to face the law coming home.


The main character I think almost cried when he thought this little kid kicked up an RPG, but the kid notice it was to heavy and runs away. Anyone doesn't want to shoot a kid, however to save soldiers they might have to. It's sad really.

As getting close to the end of the movie he wanted to come home, he went to the bar of his hometown. He was thinking, thinking of the people he killed and the child he killed in the beginning.

Any solider returning home might have that state in mind that their being under attack, it'll hunt them until the day they die. Like when the dog was playing with the kid during their families bbq, he thought the dog was hurting the kid. In his mind instantly went to combat mood. as he snapped out of it, he notice he wasn't at war anymore.

I think that can be helped but it won't vanish, it'll stay with them. Anything can triggers their combat mood, in a work field some of them can be ok working with some tools. When some Veteran have it worse than others may not work with any type of tools, who knows they might think your the enemy which your not and might hurt someone.
