[T27]Take Safety Off Lighter
by Patricia Hawke, Pat
Everyone in any school system has a desire to keep kids safe. Parents, teachers, administrators, and school board members and employees work together to ensure the safety of students. Parents and schools alike rely on each other to educate their students on safety rules as appropriate to the age of the children. Tampa Schools are highly conscious of the need to keep their students safe, and have plans in place which do so. Two such plans in Tampa Schools are the Life Threatening Allergy (LTA) Responsibility Commitment, and the Jessica Lunsford Act.

The Life Threatening Allergy Commitment is in place to save children's lives. Millions of children throughout the country suffer from life threatening allergies, and Tampa Schools are ready to deal with any situation that may arise. All members of the district of Tampa Schools have responsibilities to keep kids safe, including, but not limited to the students themselves, parents, and all Student Nutrition Services employees. The details of this plan may be reviewed at the Tampa Schools website.

Effective September 1, 2005, changes in legislation under the Jessica Lunsford Act (a law enacted after the abduction and murder of Jessica Lunsford) now require all Tampa Schools contractors, subcontractors, and their employees to undergo a Level II background screening. This screening consists of an FDLE/FBI search. If a Tampa Schools contractor or their employees or subcontractors and their employees will be at any of Tampa Schools when students are present, have direct contact with students, or have access to or control of school funds, they will be required, as mandated by Florida State Law to undergo this screening.

If the contractor or subcontractors have no personnel who meet any of the three criteria, the law does not apply and no action is necessary. The fingerprints must be kept current and are required to be updated every five years. Any break in service to Tampa Schools will require individuals to be re-screened at their cost. Outside agencies? reports will not be accepted. Prior to being fingerprinted, each individual will be required to disclose any previous criminal history on the Criminal Record Information form. This document must be received and cleared by the Tampa Schools? Office of Professional Standards before being fingerprinted. All individuals will be required to meet the background qualification guidelines for contractors before being considered eligible for Tampa Schools site access.

After eligibility is assessed, notification of such will be sent to the contractor, along with the clearance for his or her employee(s) to report to Fingerprinting. The potential Tampa Schools contractor will receive a document that indicates the employee has been fingerprinted and is now considered an approved contractor/employee once the district receives the fingerprint return from FDLE/FBI. This usually takes 24 to 48 hours. Additionally, contractors will be mailed ID badges for their employees that must be worn at all times while present at any Tampa Schools campus. It is obvious that the district of Tampa Schools is highly aware of the necessity of keeping its students safe.

Many people use the internet under the illusion that their actions are 100% private and anonymous, unfortunately it isn't so every time you visit a site you leave a calling card that reveals private and personal information about you ,where you are coming from ,Computer's IP Address , chat room activity ,Medical ,Insurance ,Financial or Career info you access, what kind of computer you have and other details of your online adventures are available to every site you enter.
Internet users are exposed to different threats from hackers and other bad intended people therefore they have to take some basic safety precautions to avoid any unpleasant surprises.

How we can help you?

We can provide you with an updated list of anonymous proxies to protect your computer from malicious attacks. Proxy server acts as a shield between you and all your online activities. Technically speaking, a proxy server will rewrite the web pages you visit on protected servers so you will be safe and the most important thing that it will hide your computer's IP address so nobody will be able to trace you and this prevent them from seeing whatever you do online.

Usually, proxy servers are used to increase the effective speed of your connection to the Internet, as they save files that are requested most often in a special database called "cache". The cache of a proxy server is generally huge in its capacity, and contains not only the requests made by you, but also the files that have been requested by hundreds, if not thousands, of other Internet users. As a result, the information you need may already be present in cache by the time of your request, making it possible for the proxy to deliver it immediately.

Proxy servers will block outside parties from inserting onto your own hard drive malicious files and will neutralize JavaScript, Cookies and all other threats you could think of. Proxy servers are useful for many other things such as; if you find yourself banned or restricted from accessing the Internet or if you are fire walled or blocked then proxy servers are the perfect solutions to resolve these problems. Also, if you are attacked or flooded, not to mention trojaned or hacked in the chat rooms for example, proxy servers will eliminate these uncomfortable problems. Many people are unable to use Internet telephony services or their Internet speed is very low, proxy servers will do the trick and increase your Internet transfer speed and will allow you to use the Internet telephony services with no headaches.

Some people want to use the Internet without leaving any tracks, for example: if you want to send an e-mail without revealing who you are, you can use proxy servers to ?hide? your identity so other people won't know who sent the e-mail. Proxy servers are the best solution for hiding the user and protecting him from all sorts of evil attacks from people who are on the look for vulnerable Internet users which can be easily attacked.
