Aren't you referring to the date where the President was given a report titled "Bin Laden determined to attack"?
T-minus 13 days to hoopla about 9/11.

Ah, Aaliyah, Massoud's secret lover.

My latest conspiracy theory is that there were no Islamic terrorists on those 9/11 planes, they were Aaliyah fans who just couldn't go on.

Was it perhaps this?

'Health Promoting' Schools
PROMOTING HEALTH IN THE SCHOOL LIBRARY
As they offer access to a wide range of resources in various formats, school library resource centres (LRCs) are in an ideal position to provide information on health issues. But while LRCs can provide such information library users must feel comfortable accessing it. Some users, particularly young people, may wish to access information discreetly and the LRC can accommodate this in a variety of ways. 'Help yourself' display stands of leaflets, young people's magazines, posters on the walls, and CD-Roms such as 'D-Code' and 'Body Facts' which provide information on drugs and the body through interactive games, all offer access without drawing too much attention. Aspects of the curriculum require pupils to find out information on a number of health related topics including pregnancy, smoking, alcohol abuse, healthy eating, drug dependency etc. These topics offer young people a means of accessing information for both academic and personal reasons.

The less formal setting of the LRC can be used by members of staff wishing to deliver health promotion information to small groups in a relaxed environment. One school nurse in Dundee has chosen to use the LRC to deliver sessions on healthy eating and smoking.

It is of course vital to provide up-to-date and relevant resources and involving young people in selection is an ideal way to raise awareness of the LRCs stock and ensure it appeals to those for whom it is intended.

Of course health information, particularly in leaflet form, is not solely for pupils. Other members of the school community, including cleaners, teachers, technicians and parents, may also appreciate informal access to this type of information.

Finally, while many areas of health promotion are serious, there is always plenty of scope for humour. A good sprinkling of information delivered in an amusing way can help to make everyone feel more relaxed about accessing information which can sometimes be seen as embarrassing, boring or uncool.

HEALTH WEEK AT SOUTHESK PRIMARY SCHOOL
The school organised a range of health-related activities and presentations for both pupils and parents. Our aims for the week were:

To help make pupils and parents more aware of the issues associated with a healthy lifestyle.
To encourage pupils to consider following a healthier diet.
To encourage pupils to undertake more exercise.
To help make pupils more aware of the safety issues.
A number of agencies helped us by participating in the programme, which was devised to cater for every class and to ensure that they all received an appropriate input for their stage. Valuable contributions covered topics such as physical exercise, diet, dental hygiene, social responsibility, personal safety, smoking, drugs, alcohol, basic first aid and road safety.

All the pupils and staff started each day of the Health Week with a twenty-minute walk around the surrounding area. Parents accompanied us on the walks with numbers ranging from twenty on the Monday to sixty-five on the Thursday. The pupils enjoyed the exercise while the staff felt that the children, on their return to school, seemed to be more prepared for their work.

To help encourage the pupils to opt for a healthy snack the school provided every pupil with a free healthy option each day. The items supplied included fruit, healthy bakes, milk and diluted juice. Throughout that week the children were also observed to be opting for more of the healthy snacks during the interval and lunch breaks. An assembly was held at the end of the week to celebrate the success of the programme and parents also praised the week's activities. A 'Health Week' will now become a bi-annual event at our school.
