Dear Stan, THE Rotary Club of Manama is organising a great family fun day at the Rugby Football Club in Saar on May 7 from 9am to 2pm, open-to-all and entrance is free!

The six-a-side football tournament is the club's biggest annual fund-raising charity event. The funds raised from this event will be used for building a counselling ward at Salmaniya Medical Complex for diabetic patients and to buy life saving insulin pumps for underprivileged diabetic children.

The Manama Rotary Club is affiliated to Rotary International and has the privileged status of being the first Rotary Club in the Gulf. It was formed in 1965 under the initiative of Shaikh Mohammed bin Mubarak Al Khalifa, the Deputy Prime Minister.

The RCM in its 45 years of honourable existence has raised huge sums of money towards innumerable charitable causes.

The RCM is striving hard to put together a fun-filledfundraiser this year. The game plan for the football tournament is to play each half for around six minutes with a two-minute break in between, which totals to a 14-minute game. The tournament will finish off with semi-finals and finals.

The RCM is creating history or rather `her-story' by inviting ladies teams for the first time.This will be a unique feature this year.

You can also partake the delectable food items, which will be on sale, besides handmade jewellery and other handicrafts. There will also be face painting, nail art, henna designing, a scavenger hunt, etc.

The master of ceremony will be Krazy Kevin! So come one and all. Have a good time and do good while you are at it!

Dear Stan,

I READ with interest your two excellent articles (GulfWeekly, April 21-27, 2010) concerning the dangers lurking for children on the internet as well as the efforts by schools to curtail online bullying. Having two young children myself, I know that this is something we will have to face in the coming years.

You may be interested to know that there is a US-based website gaining popularity that can help protect your children on Facebook, Twitter, MySpace etc.

Originally designed for the large university sports and athletic programmes, the site has also become popular with individual parents and schools as a first line of defence against the kind of bullying that led to the recent tragic suicide of a teenage girl in America.

The website is called YouDiligence: www.youdiligence.com

Name and address supplied.

Editor's note: YouDiligence constantly scans your child's Facebook, MySpace and Twitter pages for key words in several categories such as drugs, depression, bullying, racial slurs, alcohol and violence. It sends an automatic detailed email alert in real-time when a match is found.

What would take you hours to 'maybe' find on your own, YouDiligence says it finds for you in seconds. It can be downloaded for a 30-day free trial and then costs around $10 a month.

Dear Stan,

I READ Shilpa Chandran's article in last week's GulfWeekly about Yasmine Rasool and her art and photography classes. I would like to contact her as I am very interested in taking up photography.

Could you give me the contact details for her workshops?

Gillian Yadaz,

by email.

Editor's note: Yasmine can be contacted on 38888352.

Dear Stan,

SOMEONE, a scam artist, has hacked into my gmail account and is sending out bogus 'help' emails to my contacts all over the place! Please ignore them and sorry, I am fine and in Bahrain!

Beware coffee shop free WiFi - I think that's how it happened!

Brian Davis,
