It's nice sometimes to do what the news rarely does and post follow-ups to stories. I posted about the case of Britt Pilton a few months ago because I have seen and experienced bullying within schools and her story touched a nerve with me. Now Maria Ogilvie, the nasty bitch who basically bullied her to death has been sacked. Perhaps manslaughter might've been a better option, but you take what you can get. I hope this evil person never works in education again, or anywhere for that matter.

I rarely cross post or 'borrow' other peoples' content. But I couldn't resist this list I came across. Someone spent the time and effort to catalogue all the things that, according to the Daily Mail, lead to cancer.
