There were participating representatives from about 30 large cities of Russia CIS and other countries. Ulyanovsk State Technical University was represented by the Chairman of the Sub-Faculty of "Heat and Gas Supply and Ventilation" (TGV) Mr. Sharapov, by the assistant professors Mr. Orlov, Mr. Rotov, Mrs. Rotova, and Mrs. Yamleeva.
The organizers especially noted that the speciality is being developed very slow, that the average age of faculties of Heat and Gas Supply and Ventilations Departments is above 60 years. In the report of the Chairman of the Scientific Committee of the Conference Professor Mr. Prohorov the role of the young scientific school of UlSTU in the development of issues of Heat Supply was noted (the average age at the Sub-department TGV in the UlSTU is only 35 years).
The Conference was dedicated to the 60-years Anniversary of the Victory over fascism in Great Patriotic War. The topic of the first report of the Chairman of the Organizational Committee of the Conference was "To the memories of the War's Veterans". At the conference were discussed the theoretical aspects and prospective directions of the scientific researches in the sphere of construction building thermal physics and energy saving technologies in buildings; heating, ventilation and air conditioning, heat and gas supply, heat generating mounts and the experience of practical application of such researches in the modern conditions.

|Parkwood Apartments, 6930 Fair Oaks Boulevard, Carmichael, CA
|Eric Price
CARMICHAEL, CA, Jan. 24, 2014 – Marcus & Millichap Real Estate Investment Services, the nation's largest real estate investment services firm, has arranged the sale of Parkwood, a 197-unit apartment complex in Carmichael, a city within the greater Sacramento, Calif. metropolitan area. The $14,250,000 sales price equates to $72,335 per unit.
Eric Price, a senior associate in Marcus & Millichap's Sacramento office, represented the buyer and seller, two family trusts.
"The sale of Parkwood demonstrates the demand from private investors for core assets in Sacramento's premier rental markets," says Price. "The new owner is in an excellent position to benefit from the area's resurgent housing market and continued movement in rents."
The property is located at 6930 Fair Oaks Blvd. in Carmichael across the street from the largest park in the area, Carmichael Park, which features six tennis courts, four baseball diamonds, a large children's play area and an off-leash dog park.
Safeway, Bel Air and Big Lots are nearby and Fair Oaks Boulevard, Carmichael's main thoroughfare, is home to many other retailers and restaurants, services and employment opportunities.
Constructed in two phases on 7.2 acres in 1973 and 1985, Parkwood's unit mix features one- and two-bedroom floor plans. Many units have additional half- or quarter-baths and 10 have had washers and dryers installed.
All of the apartments feature well-equipped kitchens with dishwashers, disposals and electric appliances. Select units have vaulted ceilings and outside storage space.
Parkwood's community amenities include access gates, two swimming pools, a fitness and recreation center, four laundry rooms and reserved parking for every apartment.
Recent renovations include parking lot resurfacing, siding repair and new exterior paint.

Q object encapsulates a SQL expression in a Python object that can be used in database-related operations. Using Q objects we can make complex queries with less and simple code.
For example, this Q object filters whether the question starts wiht 'what':
from django.db.models import Q Q(question__startswith='What')
Q objects are helpfull for complex queries because they can be combined using logical operators and(&), or(|), negation(~)
For example, this statement returns if the question starts with 'who' or with 'what'.
Q(question__startswith='Who') | Q(question__startswith='What')
Note:>If the operator is not included then by default 'AND' operator is used
class Q(tree.Node): AND = 'AND' OR = 'OR' default = AND def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs): super(Q, self).__init__(children=list(args) + list(six.iteritems(kwargs))) def _combine(self, other, conn): if not isinstance(other, Q): raise TypeError(other) obj = type(self)() obj.connector = conn obj.add(self, conn) obj.add(other, conn) return obj def __or__(self, other): return self._combine(other, self.OR) def __and__(self, other): return self._combine(other, self.AND) def __invert__(self): obj = type(self)() obj.add(self, self.AND) obj.negate() return obj
As you can interpret from above code, we have three operators 'or', 'and' and invert(negation) and the default operator is AND.
This is an interesting feature as we can use the operator module to create dynamic queries.
import operator from django.db.models import Q from your_app.models import your_model_object q_list = [Q(question__startswith='Who'), Q(question__startswith='What')] your_model_object.objects.filter(reduce(operator.or_, q_list))
We are performing the or operation using operator.or_
your_model_object.objects.filter(reduce(operator.and_, q_list))
Q objects not only simplify complex queries, they are very handy for dynamic filtering.

8. July 4th Picnic: The board approved the expenditure of $500 for this year's picnic via an email motion and vote prior to tonight's meeting. The picnic will run from 11AM until 2PM at Miller Park. Picnic shelter #10 has been reserved. The ANA will provide hot dogs and chili. Blue Ridge Ice Cream will be providing free ice cream from 1-2PM. Children's activities will be provided. The ANA will have membership information and Linda will have Playground Project information available at the event. Posters for the picnic will be going up in yards soon.
9. Historic District Markers: The Historic District Marker Committee is in the process of designing a marker to be used in designating the boundaries of the Ardmore historic district. The marker will have a Craftsmen/Mission style design to them.
The celebration for the Historic District is scheduled for October 15th at Miller Park. The city is co-sponsoring the event and providing a mobile stage. Patti Heath estimates a budgetary need of $1600-2000 for the event with the main cost being for the entertainment. The committee has proposed a raffle with all monies raised coming back to the ANA. Clark Harper will try to get vintage cars for display. A tractor hayride will be provided at a minimal cost. A motion was made and passed to have the Treasurer write checks as needed with $1000 being available to the committee now and rest available before the event, at a date to be determined.
10. Playground Equipment: The WS Foundation has agreed to accept tax-deductible donations from citizens for the playground fund. Linda is hoping that playground equipment will be installed at Miller Park during the Historic District celebration. She will place an order for equipment approximately August 1st. The group is hoping to attract people interested in selecting equipment or helping install equipment to the next meeting at 7 PM on Thursday July 14th at 2425 Westfield Avenue.
Two fund raisers are going to be held to raise more money for playground equipment. In mid-July there will be a yard sale fundraiser for the Playground Project at 2528 Westover Ave (Jim Jenkins' residence). Contacts for this event are Jim at 748-8335 (or Linda at 727-0912). And in mid-September there is going to be a "chicken stew" and marshmallow roast, with children's music, at Miller Park, hosted by Deanna and Chris Burris. Tickets will be pre-sold for this event. The Playground Committee is hoping to raise $10,000 more before purchasing equipment.
Flyers with information regarding the playground project and the fundraisers will be going up around the neighborhood soon.
Tim Grant says the City of WS will do all of the demolition work needed after children return to school in August.
11. New Business: As an effort to reduce the length of the ANA meetings Linda mentioned to the Board limiting discussion to 3-5 minutes per prescheduled item and using a timer, if required, to remind Board members to monitor their discussions. She believes that meeting discussion items should be limited to brief summaries and the "action" items required by the Board. All additional information pertaining to a specific discussion topic could be provided by a Board meeting prior to or just after the ANA Board meeting. No formal motion was made on this subject. Guest speakers would not be held to the 3-5 minute rule.
The meeting was adjourned at 8:45PM
Respectfully submitted,
Brenda Jo Breining, Secretary, ANA

In my previous article I discussed the position of women according to the Word of God in terms of her being commanded to be in subjection and in obedience to man, and how for many, in their sinful minds, they see this command as being oppressive and chauvinistic. But when we bring the man into the equation and the responsibilities put on him by the Creator because of his sin, is it being looked at with the same lens by our dear sisters? Let's have a quick look:
"And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life; Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou shalt eat the herb of the field; In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art , and unto dust shalt thou return." Genesis 3:17-19
Do we notice that there is something missing here? It is always implied that the man was given the responsibility to take care of the woman and provide for her because she was told that he would have the rule over her. If this is the case, then the difficulty that man would face on earth would bring the necessity for competition with other men, and a constant wrestling with the earth itself to acquire the resources for food, clothing and shelter, and God is going to ensure that the earth isn't going to just be compliant in the endeavors of man, hence the thorns and thistles.
In the New Testament, Paul says whichever man among us in the church who isn't willing to work doesn't eat. It is also said that man is to cherish the woman and care for her as he does his own body, and to be willing to lay down his life for her as Christ did for the church. I understand that the woman has a great plate in front of her to digest, but so does the man and if the men and women who serve God together understand this better, then our marriages will be more fulfilling because the man is always looking at the position of his woman according to God's Word, and so is she toward him according to God's Word.
If we can stop characterizing our individual plights as us being from two separate planets (Venus and Mars) and realize that we are from one planet, and that we both share one half of a task and a condition put on us by God because of sin, then maybe, just maybe we'll realize how much more one we are than separate.

Thu., July 26, 2012
HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Thursday, July 26, 2012: This year you become focused on home, family and your immediate circle. Others might try to distract you, yet they get nowhere. At times you might seem closed down, as you are so deep in thought. If single, you might attract someone who has difficulty with your level of depth. If attached, spend more time with your significant other. Take on a project together, and you will become closer. Scorpio can be possessive, and there is very little you can do to change this pattern. A baby born today has a sun in Leo and a moon in Scorpio all day.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) • • • • Deal with others individually. There is an element of confusion that marks your plans and interactions. Let go of the status quo, and be ready to adapt to different needs and ideas.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) • • • You take quite a stand, and others immediately become challenging. See and understand how you provoke these responses.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) • • • Dive into your work and complete as many errands as possible. Deal with a partner on a one-on-one level. This person is changing.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) • • • • • Tap into your innate creativity. You are a source of ever-changing ideas and solutions. News comes indirectly that you might have had a premonition about.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) • • • • You are energized and in touch with your needs. You might want to clarify a request from a partner, close friend or loved one.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) • • • • Observe what is happening with a key person. Clarify a situation, rather than allowing confusion to drift deeper into plans and ideas.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) • • • • Investigate and root out what might be going on with a daily matter or routine. Misunderstandings weave their way through this issue.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) • • • • • You must deal with an important project or decide to share some time with a special person in your life. You might not be aware of the implications of your actions.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) • • • Take your time getting going. If you feel you need time off, take it now, as your dream life is active and you could be quite tired.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) • • • • • You might not realize what an unstoppable force you are. Others often look on with awe as you continue like the Energizer Bunny.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) • • • • Others observe your actions. You might get jittery with this knowledge. Understand that you are unique in your own right; that is what draws others to you.

In The Best Case Scenario, You Will Have To Wait Until They Thaw So That The Water Runs Again.
Having issues with your plumbing can be a hassle, especially if you are not knowledgeable on the subject. You often have to wait for a plumber to make a house call, and you may end up paying a lot for a repair you could have made on your own. Read this article to learn the best ways to fix plumbing problems.
If you have pipes that sound as if they're squeaking or hammering, it's an easy fix. Exposed pipes need to be anchored. You might have to call a professional to help finish the project if pipes are in floors, ceiling or walls.
To keep your pipes from freezing in the winter, insulate all exterior pipes and be sure to keep your interior house temperature above freezing, even if the house is vacant. But, be advised that your pipes may freeze if the surrounding temperature near those pipes is less than freezing. In the best case scenario, you will have to wait until they thaw so that the water runs again. However, they could burst, which would cause a huge mess and an extremely big repair bill. plumbing austin
Pump your septic tank every five years to keep it working well. This will prevent sediment from piling up in your tank, which could cause it to overflow into your home and yard, or even cause the entire septic system to fail. Although it is somewhat of an expense to pump out a septic tank, it is nothing compared to what you will have to spend on cleaning up a backup of sewage or repairing or replacing your septic system.
Don't be tempted to use commercial bleach tablets, blue toilet tablets or any other product that claims to prevent toilet odor. It may help to get rid of your toilet's odors, but it will damage any rubber parts, causing your toilet to malfunction, or even break down.
Never put fat, grease, or oils into your drain. plumbing austinWhen they cool, they'll harden and clog your drain. Even with a garbage disposal, you are going to cause it to be less efficient and risk drain backups. To keep your kitchen pipes clear, never dispose of grease down your sink drain.
As you can see, plumbing problems don't have to be so difficult. If you can solve the problem yourself, you can save time waiting for a plumber, as well as saving a whole lot of money. Try applying what you've learned from this article next time you have a plumbing problem!

Officials for Operation Rescue, one of the cutting edge pro-life organizations in the U.S. ever since it bought an abortion clinic to shut it down and convert the building into its pro-life headquarters in Wichita, are reporting the death of a woman in Maryland after her "medical procedure" went wrong and the abortionist couldn't be reached.
The name of the victim, who was 33 weeks pregnant, was as yet unavailable, but Cheryl Sullenger, senior policy adviser for OR, said trusted sources had described the death of the 29-year-old woman after Leroy Carhart, who does late-term abortions out of the Germantown Reproductive Health Services, started the procedure and then was unreachable when there were complications.
The woman ultimately died at a local hospital, Sullenger's source confirmed.
The 29-year-old apparently was undergoing a multi-day procedure used by late-term abortionists, Sullenger said.
"Sidewalk counselors saw her every day from Sunday to Wednesday. She appeared, later in the week, to be pale and weak," Sullenger told WND today.
Early Thursday, there were complications, including chest pain and other discomfort, and the woman tried to reach Carhart but he was unavailable, the source reported. The woman then was transported to a local emergency room by her family where emergency workers also tried to reach Carhart, unsuccessfully.
The complication, apparently bleeding into the abdominal cavity, got worse, and she "coded," or had her heart stop, six times, Sullenger's source confirmed.
Emergency room doctors ultimately were unsuccessful at reviving her.
The source, who insisted on anonymity, reported an investigation into the death has been launched.
"We believe this incident supports our belief that this is a dangerous abortion procedure," Sullenger told WND. She said it involves a shot that kills the unborn baby, and then the abortionist leaves the mothers unmonitored.

No. 9 field hockey downs Michigan State in pink-out
By Matt Bradshaw —
No. 9 field hockey (10-3) defeated Michigan State (4-11) for their fourth consecutive victory. Louisville turned in a superior offensive performance for a 12-4 shot advantage and 4-1 final score.
Bethany Russ, Taylor Stone, Biz Allgeier and Erica Cooper netted goals for the Cardinals. Both the players and fans wore pink for the matchup to honor breast cancer survivors, victims and promote awareness.
First half
Twenty minutes passed in the first half before any goals were scored. U of L kept the Michigan State defense on its toes with strong possession and multiple opportunities on goal.
"It took a little while to get going in the first half," head coach Justine Sowry said. "We weren't playing Louisville field hockey and that's really frustrating when we're 11 games into the season."
Redshirt sophomore Russ took advantage of a penalty corner at the 21st minute and scored her seventh goal of the season. Junior Carter Ayers assisted the opportunity for a 1-0 lead.
"I had some firm words and they started to kick it into action," Sowry said. "In the first half, our circle return was very good and we were productive. That was one of our goals for this game and something we've been working over the last couple of weeks."
At the 23rd minute, senior Stone took control of another penalty corner and whipped the ball into the cage. Senior Katie Walsh assisted the goal for a team-high seventh assist this season.
Redshirt freshman Allgeier kept things going with a goal at the 27th minute, and freshman Cooper added another one minute later with a deflection off a penalty corner. Cooper leads the squad with eight goals this season.
Louisville scored four goals in under seven minutes and held a 4-0 lead at halftime. The Spartans had zero shots on goal to nine from the Cards.
Second half
Michigan State kept fighting and managed a goal off a penalty corner at the 55th minute. Junior Hollyn Barr replaced senior Ayeisha McFerran as goalkeeper and saved the initial shot, but the Spartans scored on the rebound.
"In the second half, we started to play some different players," Sowry said. "It just knocked us off our rhythm a little bit. Regardless of who comes on and off the bench, we still have to be able to play to our identity and the way we play."
U of L kept control of the game after the score and did not allow any closer chances. They finished with an 8-2 advantage in corners and won the game 4-1.
Five games remain in the regular season, including two versus conference opponents. Louisville is hitting their stride on the pitch and hope to win a majority of the coming matches to boost their NCAA and ACC standing.
Field hockey hosts No. 4 Duke on Oct. 12 for a top-10 conference matchup.
Post-game ceremony
Along with the pink-out to honor breast cancer survivors and promote awareness, the program honored Sowry and last season's All-Americans.
Sowry recently picked up her 100th career win as head coach. She has led the Cardinals to four straight NCAA appearances, a conference title and runner-up finish in the ACC Championship.
Field hockey recorded their best-ever conference performance in 2017 with their runner-up finish and remain one of Louisville athletics' most successful programs. The beginning of October marks the 60th consecutive week Louisville has remained top-20 in the national rankings.
"It's something we're really proud of," Sowry said. "It's a level of respect around the country, that they're starting to look more consistently at our team collectively and individually."
Last year saw the program increase its number of All-American selections. The postgame ceremony honored Nicole Woods, Ayeisha McFerran and Taylor Stone with the unveiling of individual All-American banners at Trager Stadium.
"We've had a lot of success as a team and certainly individually," Sowry said. "To have three All-Americans in one year is huge. It says a lot about the quality of players we're recruiting and the hard work they're putting in to become the great players they are."

Fintech: PrimaryBid transforms equity capital raising for small companies
COPYING AND DISTRIBUTING ARE PROHIBITED WITHOUT PERMISSION OF THE PUBLISHER: email@example.com
Taking payments off retail investors' debit cards for new share placings has quickly changed the way AIM-listed companies place new equity and could have implications for bigger deals.
In the search for clues as to how new financial technology might alter equity capital markets (ECM) and eventually transform the way companies raise money, sometimes it pays to peer down from the heights of multi-billion dollar rights issues, accelerated book builds and syndicated IPOs.
So far, radical change is mainly evident in the way start-ups and smaller companies raise equity.
New investing platforms such as SyndicateRoom have sought to democratize the process, giving retail investors access to start-up fund raising and breaching the wall that used to protect the juiciest pickings for a club of connected insiders.
SyndicateRoom brought a crowdfunding approach to early stage investing, ensuring that retail investors coming through its site fund only start-ups sponsored by professional angel investors – so ensuring an element of selection and filtering – and get to buy exactly the same class of shares on the same valuation terms as these professionals.
However, while incentivized by tax breaks, early stage investing is a notoriously high risk hobby. It is ideally suited to those with the wealth, patience and risk tolerance to build portfolios, knowing most start-ups will fail and the survivors will keep coming back for further funding, which investors must either provide or accept dilution.
PrimaryBid is another newcomer to watch.
Since starting in 2016 with a focus on more established and so lower risk companies already listed on AIM, its track record of bringing new retail money into secondary share placings and IPOs from such companies deserves attention.
It has helped companies raise £37 million, working on 20 deals, most in the £1 million to £2 million range and typically arranged by banks and brokers syndicating to small clubs of institutional investors.
At the top end of ECM, as covered by GlobalCapital and tracked by Dealogic, retail investors are the dumb money meant to support deals in the secondary market that bookrunners circulate in primary for their highest commission and spread, effectively paying institutional customers to dump after the initial pop.
At this lower end of the ECM, the traditional view was that attracting retail money was more trouble than it was worth.
PrimaryBid's experience challenges that view.
The company takes two approaches. It offers companies' brokers and banks the option of adding an additional retail component to an institutional fund raising, which it then facilitates taking payment directly and instantly off retail customers' debit cards.
The company has attracted an interesting mix of investing customers. The minimum bid it accepts is for £1,000, but some individuals are investing in the tens of thousands of pounds a time, with the highest single ticket being for £100,000.
For AIM-listed companies raising just a couple of million in a secondary placement, this suddenly becomes significant.
Anand Sambasivan,
Anand Sambasivan, co-founder and chief executive of PrimaryBid, and a former investment banker at Credit Suisse and Bank of America, tells Euromoney: "It turns out that much of this retail money is often patient, long-term capital provided by investors that really do their homework on companies. If you follow the bulletin boards you see how, when an AIM company releases a regulatory notice of a fund raising, within minutes the discussion lights up.
"Individual retail investors may be tough for small companies and traditional brokers to reach, but in aggregate this represents a desirable allocation as well as bringing additional price tension and liquidity."
Pressed for an example, Sambasivan recalls: "We took part in March in a £1.5 million capital raise for Versarien, a graphene company, that was a mainly institutionally held and quite illiquid stock. We said we were confident we could generate £300,000 of additional demand on a deal originally seeking to raise £1 million.
"We were heavily oversubscribed in just hours with demand for £800,000 and we delivered new capital equivalent to something like 40-days average trading volume."
The whole deal was increased by 50% in response, allowing the company to scale up manufacturing and marketing of its new graphene brand, Nanene.
Sambasivan says: "The limited secondary market had not disclosed the true extent of primary liquidity potentially available to the company."
Dave Mutton, who joined PrimaryBid as chief operating officer in 2016 and had previously been head of UK business development for Amazon, explains. "We do know-your-customer and anti-money laundering checks on our investors who can sign up to follow a company and be pinged on their smartphones if it seeks to raise money.
"We can feed this kind of interest to companies, so they get a better sense of potential demand. And if enough investors express interest to us to invest in a company at a specified valuation, we can approach the company directly or its bankers or brokers and suggest a secondary placement."
PrimaryBid gets payed a standard fee portion of the proceeds companies raise through it. Investors, many now repeat customers, do not pay for access to new issues. The management team's ambition is to establish PrimaryBid over the next 12 to 18 months as the main, regular conduit for retail distribution of new share placements by AIM-listed companies.
The company, which launched in beta in 2015, but really kicked into gear from last March, has worked on just 20 out of 500 deals on AIM in that time and is essentially a bet on that market. AIM-listed companies are currently raising funding to the tune of about £4 billion a year. Pre-crisis they were raising more than £20 billion annually.
Some of them, though, are large deals. In November, PrimaryBid was able to bring an extra £2.8 million of demand to a £24.1 million deal for Sound Energy, a Mediterranean oil and gas exploration company.
|Dave Mutton,
"We have been talking to a couple of companies on the main list as well as talking to other exchanges," says Mutton. "And we have been talking to a couple of institutional investors about taking reverse enquiry for new equity capital directly to companies.
"Speed is one of our key selling points. Conventional new equity offers can take several weeks to complete and attach high costs, whereas we have shown that we can open an offer to retail investors on Thursday or Friday and have it oversubscribed over the weekend."
Ideas are tumbling out.
Sambasivan says: "An underwriting fund would be quite compelling. Underwriting has been something that institutional investors traditionally got paid for, but there is no reason not to outsource some of that to retail."

Three-time Norwalk robber sentenced to five years in jail
STAMFORD-The second of two Norwalk man were sentenced Friday at the Stamford courthouse to five years in jail for participating in three Norwalk armed robberies in 2017.
The late night robberies by two masked men with handguns that occurred in January of that year struck Shorehaven Mobile on East Avenue, Rainbow News and Variety on Main Street as well as M&J Family Grocery on Bouton Street.
After pleading guilty to the armed robberies in May, Anthony Tompkins, 27, of Sheridan Street Norwalk was sentenced Friday by Judge Margarita Hartley-Moore to five years in jail and seven years special parole. His co-conspirator on the case, Stephen Violet, 20, of Norwalk was was given an identical sentence by the same judge on Monday as part of the same plea agreement that the two men decided to take advantage of.
According to the arrest affidavit's for both men, the robberies took place late at night and involved the either the two threatening to shoot or pointing their guns at the clerks and ordering them to open their registers and give them all the money they had.
During the Shorehaven Mobile robbery on Jan. 7, 2017, the two made off with about $800 in cash as well as cigarettes. During the Rainbow News robbery on Jan. 14, 2017, the store clerk told police the two robbed him of about $3,000 in cash and cigarettes. At M& J Family Grocery on Jan. 11, 2017, the two took about $1,400 in cash, according to their arrest affidavits.
According to the affidavits, Violet confessed to his participation in the robbery and said that Tompkins was with him when he robbed the stores.
When asked by Hartley-Moore if he had anything to say, Tompkins said he "Just wanted to get this over with."

For readers of Schindler's List, The Man Who Broke into Auschwitz and The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas comes a heart-breaking story of the very best of humanity in the very worst of circumstances.
I tattooed a number on her arm. She tattooed her name on my heart.
In 1942, Lale Sokolov arrived in Auschwitz-Birkenau. He was given the job of tattooing the prisoners marked for survival - scratching numbers into his fellow victims' arms in indelible ink to create what would become one of the most potent symbols of the Holocaust.
Waiting in line to be tattooed, terrified and shaking, was a young girl. For Lale - a dandy, a jack-the-lad, a bit of a chancer - it was love at first sight. And he was determined not only to survive himself, but to ensure this woman, Gita, did, too.
So begins one of the most life-affirming, courageous, unforgettable and human stories of the Holocaust: the love story of the tattooist of Auschwitz.

Install an image on your Raspberry Pi 2 [Full Guide]
It was a moment I hesitated, and although I have no specific ideas about what I'll do, I decided to test it Raspberry Pi . Since it's been a while since the first version was released, I went directly to the V2 corresponding to the following model: Raspberry Pi 2 – Model B with 1 GB of memory ; So advertised as 6 times faster than the first .
Personally, I bought a full pack on Amazon which provided me all the different cables and accessories as well as a box for Raspberry. . You are free to buy everything separately to be more specific in the cables or SD card chosen by example
Specifically, it looks like this:
While still in the discovery phase, the next articles should be devoted to this new gadget! 😉
Today, I start simple. You just got your new toy, so you must now use Micro SD card adapter to be able to load an operating system image . These may include Windows IoT or Raspbian (found in fact to be a Debian-specific version for Raspberry Pi)
To download images, please visit the following links:.
once your downloaded image file, unzip it (if necessary). In the case of Windows IoT , the file is already in ISO format while Raspbian must be unzipped via WinRAR or 7-Zip. Depending on your choice, you should get the following files:
In my case, I will choose the Debian version and therefore the file 2015-09-24-Raspbian-jessie.img . Now we have to burn / copy the image on our SD card. For this, please have your Micro SD card adapter and connect to your PC
You will need the following software:. Win32 Disk Imager . This is available at the following address: https://href.li/?http://sourceforge.net/projects/win32diskimager/ . Install it and start it (there is no complexity).
Look now at what letter your SD card is mounted and start burning the image.
After a few minutes, your OS is available on the Micro SD card. It remains only to remove it from the adapter and boot from the Raspberry Pi to check that it works
You should see the following screen:
Your Raspberry Pi is ready. We'll see in the next article how to connect to it from the command line . 🙂

Young and Dangerous, the second album by Rock band The Struts is the best I have heard in the last 5 years! There I said it. To hear an album for the first time and instantly enjoy every song is a rarity and then to have it on repeat for a week and still not be apathetic towards the music is even more astonishing. Buy it, download it or borrow it. Just get it and give it your full attention!
Usually, I start reviews with a brief history of the band and then go into more detail regarding each individual track before summing up and giving a final rating. However, this album has completely reinvigorated my belief in the idea Rock music has a massive future and bands like The Struts are hugely relevant and will be keeping the fires burning for many years to come.
I first became aware of the band through word of mouth concerning their live performances and, in particular, the swagger and on stage bravado of lead singer Luke Spiller and since I reside in the same area of the UK of his birth I was particularly interested. Therefore I listened to the first album 'Everybody Wants' and immediately heard references and sounds reminiscent of early Queen, Aerosmith, and even The Darkness. Fast forward 4 years and finally a follow up has arrived.
The album is book ended by the track 'Body Talks'. Starting with a laugh, this is a song which sets the stall out perfectly to the feel and emotion the album conveys with its instant "stuck in the head" tune and singalong lyrics. 'Primadonna was recently released as a promotional single, the track and accompanying video portrays the energy and humor within the band and maybe shows they don't outwardly take themselves too seriously. 'In Love With A Camera' maintains the continual pace of the album and sees Luke trying out his best Justin Hawkins (The Darkness) impression hitting some very high notes and showing what a great versatile singer he is. 'Bulletproof Baby' is another song released as a sampler for the album and is a response to some who may have criticized the band. The song itself will certainly become a live favorite and has a superb chant chorus reminiscent of Queen in their 70's heyday. 'Who Am I?', 'People' and 'Fire' (Part 1) show this is not just a group with a lead singer and 3 other guys. Adam, Jed, and Gethin are musically adept at their relative instruments with the guitar work and the tightness of the rhythm section on show throughout the whole album.
Things slow down for the customary ballad 'Somebody New' although this is not a simple love song and shows a lyrical maturity and a great tune (although I swear I have heard it before. Deja Vu maybe?). I especially enjoy songs when a band takes a risk and breaks the mold by going completely left field. 'Tatler Magazine' is a funny and head bobbing song and with a guitar solo in the middle to match. 'I Do It So Well' and 'Freak Like You' continue the flow and take us to the last song 'Ashes'(Part 2). A beautiful power ballad which is another song from the album becoming instantly memorable with a very cool outro. The album concludes with a different version of album opener 'Body Talks' featuring singer Kesha.
The Struts have been compared to The Rolling Stones, Queen, Def Leppard, and The Darkness, however, as far as I am concerned, The Struts are very much doing their own thing and are incomparable to anyone. Young and Dangerous is a superb album and a definite future classic. I look forward to catching them on tour in the UK early next year and I will be front row center!

Grain Free Double Chocolate Bean Biscuits May 08 2019 by Simone Denny
Vegan, Grain Free, Gluten Free, Dairy Free
I love these biscuits! Who knew that you could make yummy grain-free biscuits out of white beans? Well, I recently discovered you can. They are quick to make, very high in protein, from the beans and nuts and they make a generous batch. My girls gave these the thumbs up for school lunches.
- 1 can of cannelloni beans or other white beans (or 1 cup of soaked and cooked white beans)
- 2 cups of almonds (roasted or unroasted)
- ½ cup of cacao powder
- ½ cup of maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon of baking powder
- 2 tablespoons of coconut oil
- 100g of good quality dark chocolate
- Preheat oven to 180C
- Grease a flat baking tray and set aside
- Put all ingredients in the blender, accept the chocolate and blend until fairly smooth (a bit finer than crunchy peanut butter).
Option 1: chop dark chocolate into chunks and stir into the mixture OR
Option 2. Melt the dark chocolate and spoon a teaspoon onto the top of each biscuit (after they have cooked and chilled).
- Roll mixture into balls – approximately the size of a heaped dessert spoon (bliss ball size) and place them on the tray. Flatten the biscuits with a fork.
- Bake for 25 minutes
- Cool on a baking rack
- If following option 2 (above) add chocolate to the top once cool.

As my last post for 2018, here are some thoughts to wrap up the year of style, fashion, retail and beyond. These are very subjective musings, so feel free to agree, disagree, and add to my list. It's all in good fun and there are no right or wrong answers. Or course, there's an emphasis on the positive, because that's how we roll on YLF.
Highlights of the Year: My favourite moments are with my favourite person – husband Greg. Our trip to Positano on the Amalfi Coast was as perfect as can be, including some very special moments with old friends from South Africa. As was Greg's whirlwind visit to the Netherlands earlier this month when he flew in from Seattle to surprise me and my Dad. WOW. I thought I was dreaming!
We attended a Simple Minds soundcheck before their Seattle concert so we spoke to the band and shook Jim Kerr's hand! I'll keep these magical moments close to my heart forever.
Most Adventurous Decision: Seven months ago we committed to a loft in Salt Lake City because Greg works there some of the time. This has been a game changer for us, and our best decision of the year. Greg, Sam and I regularly commute between Seattle and Salt Lake City so that we can spend quality time together. We're thoroughly enjoying living in two very different cities, and we've met some wonderful new friends.
Fashion Highlight: First, the street style of Summer dresses on our trip to the Amalfi Coast. It was diverse, on-trend, colourful, and I savoured every moment. Buying a wardrobe pet and wallet in Italy for my birthday with Greg was extra special.
Best Super Hero: Spider Sam
Best YLF Flashback: I stumbled across a post that Alison Gary from Wardrobe Oxygen wrote about YLF in 2013. It was perfect timing. I was feeling a little low, and bam, her post found me. Thank you Alison for your grace, eloquence, candour, energy, humour, fabulous style, beautiful smile, authenticity, and positive attitude. You inspire me and our readership, and enrich the style world in countless ways.
Most Meaningful Fashion & Style Moments:
- The availability of extended size assortments across a slew of retailers. FINALLY!
- The use of a more diverse set of models across the fashion and beauty industry.
- The sea of black gowns at the Golden Globe Awards ceremony to signal solidarity with the #metoo movement.
- The unstoppable grace, energy, intellect and wisdom that Michelle Obama brings to the world, both as a style icon and as a human being.
Most Disappointing Fashion Moments: There's a thread about this on the forum and it is well worth a read. The intolerant attitudes of top designers at leading fashion houses is disappointing, and is making me rethink my support for luxury brands.
Fashion & Style Buzzwords: Diversity, Acceptance, Extended Sizes, Gender Fluidity, Sustainability and Capsules.
Favourite New Accessories: Modern Retro watermelon specs, vintage white pearlized sunnies, and two birthday Furlas.
Biggest Client Surprise: When my little 19-year-old nephew asked me for a style makeover. So we went shopping in Arnhem in the Netherlands for the day, and had a ball. It was fun to see and hear Seb's perspectives on fashion and style, and it cracked me up how exhausted he was after our day of shopping. Seb agreed that shopping is hard work!
Best Clothing Brand: Boden because of their commitment to quality at a reasonable price, their diverse assortment of colours, and their extended size curves.
Best Dutch Clothing Brands: Expresso, because their coordinated capsules are relatable, practical and wearable. Scotch & Soda because of their commitment to quality, unique looks, and the relaxed edge they add to dressy clothing. G-Star because their men's outerwear is hip, flattering, practical and beautifully made.
Best Footwear Brand: Naturalizer, because of their commitment to extreme comfort, good quality and fashionable silhouettes at relatively reasonable prices. And because they frequently provide footwear across narrow, regular and wide widths. If it weren't for Naturalizer's narrow widths, I would not have sandals.
Best Sleepwear Brands: Boden's flannel PJs and Natori's pyjama sets, because they're flattering, very comfortable, and launder well.
Most Impressive Retailer: Nordstrom, because they want their brands to embrace the size spectrum. This year, Nordstrom displayed a diverse set of mannequins in one in-store department. They stocked sizes US0 to US22 of a clothing item on one sales rack, thereby integrating regular and plus sizes. A first for retail and WELL DONE. We want more of this type of retailing and marketing.
Favourite New-To-My-Wardrobe Clothing Brand: Items from the Scotch & Soda store in the Netherlands where the assortment is more diverse than in the US, and I can have fun shopping in Arnhem when I visit my Dad.
Best Purchases: I couldn't choose because I LOVE THEM ALL!
Biggest Style Surprise: I like tucking and semi-tucking into high-rise jeans and pants, and feel oddly out of sorts wearing and tucking into mid-rise jeans.
Best Trends: The ones that make you feel happy and fabulous, and that you'll continue wearing after they've had their fashion moment. For me that's midis, white boots, structured outfits, designs from the '60s, '70s and '80s, block heels, flats, straighter legs, and dark denim.
Worst Trends: The ones that boss you around and don't get your style.
Most Saturated Items at Retail: Skinnies, cropped pants, oversized fits, and tops with exuberant sleeves.
Most Annoying Retail Styling Technique: The plethora of bare ankles for Fall and Winter fashion. Hello! Retailers sell boots, socks, hosiery and full-length bottoms, so why don't they style cold-weather fashion with these items. The obsession with bare-ankled models is a mystery.
Biggest Missed Opportunities at Retail: Longer length dresses with long sleeves made of substantial fabrics that we can wear in Winter.
Worst Fit Problems: Dresses that are too short, widths that are too tight on the calf, sleeves that are too tight, and overly wide necklines.
Worst Quality Problem: Knitwear that pills.
Favourite Workout for Mind, Body & Spirit: A heated vinyasa yoga class led by a competent yogi.
Most Celebrated Body Parts of the Year: Ankles in cropped pants, heads in super cute hats, wrists with arm bling, and waistlines with tucking and semi-tucking.
Accessory of the Year: Scarves.
Best Online Shipping Service: Zappos. Fast, easy, efficient, pleasant and accurate.
Best Customer Service: Nordstrom, because they will replace a lost or stolen package without fuss.
Most Popular YLF Blog Posts:
My Favourite Blog Post: Celebrating Diversity in Style. My toes are tickled that it was popular with our readership too.
Colour of the Year: Red, in all its hues.
Wardrobe Item of the Year: Spring & Summer dresses because it's been the best warm-weather dress season that I can remember.

Barcelona 3-0 Liverpool full Highlights Download May 1 2019
Lionel Messi put Barcelona in complete control of their Champions League semi-final against Liverpool on Wednesday night, with his late goal putting the hosts two goals up against Jurgen Klopp's side.
Luis Suarez had earlier scored against his former team at the Camp Nou to hand Barcelona the initiative in the first leg of their semi-final.
And the former Liverpool man was at it again towards the end of the second-half, as he scampered clear of the English side's defence and attempted to deftly lob the ball over Alisson.
His neat shot struck the crossbar, only for Messi to follow the ball in anticipation of the rebound, with the Argentine tapping the ball into the empty net to put his side 2-0 up.
It was Messi's 599th goal for Barcelona.
Lionel Messi has scored his 600th goal for Barcelona in all competitions, exactly 14 years ago since his first goal against Albacete on 1st May 2005. Genius.

The Internet is a wonderful thing sometimes. Today I was trying to find some corroboration of a news story a friend emailed me about, and what did I find? A news article that features Russ and his nameless Irish Water Spaniel, along with our friend Norm and his Boykin Spaniel, Scarlett.
Russ and Norm, along with Cooper (Irish Water Spaniel) and Scarlett (Boykin), helped teach a pheasant hunting workshop last September, and the article was written by one of the students.
Here's a link to the article on TDN.com, the web outlet for The Daily News Online, a local publication for the people of the lower Columbia River.
But the Internet being what it is, I can't guarantee that that article will always be available, so I'm posting a PDF of it here. Click the image below to access the full article in PDF format.

The weather was crap, and I truly did not expect to get anything in the ground or in pots today. But hey, lookee here:
That is approximately one half of the flowers I purchased in those two clay pots. I don't have any idea what they are, but they sure are pretty. The hanging baskets were impulse purchases, one selected by the chauffeur/long-suffering mother (not mine) and the other, is well, blue and orange. I like blue and orange together (see: my living room).
Let's move on to the bedding plants, shall we?
It appeared that I went a little bit crazy, and perhaps that's true. I have green peppers, orange peppers, jalapeno peppers, cherry tomatoes, beefsteak tomatoes, Early Girl tomatoes (yes, I like tomatoes and peppers), spaghetti squash, butternut squash and zucchini and yes! watermelon.
Plus basil, thyme, dill and parsley.
So why, do I only have one cucumber plant? Because the chauffeur was in charge of cucumbers and she was busy worrying about her kids. Sigh. (kidding! Love you! I'll go and get more cukes).

telent is a winner in the RoSPA Awards 2016
telent Technology Services Ltd has been successful in the 60th year of the RoSPA Occupational Health and Safety Awards 2016.
The company, based in Warwick, achieved the Gold Award for Fleet Safety in the prestigious annual scheme run by the Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents (RoSPA).
The RoSPA Awards is celebrating 60 years of presenting highly-regarded and sought after accolades to businesses and organisations which have shown commitment to accident and ill-health prevention.
Through the scheme, which is open to businesses and organisations of all types and sizes from across the UK and overseas, judges consider entrants' overarching occupational health and safety management systems, including practices such as leadership and workforce involvement.
Julia Small, RoSPA's head of awards and events, said: "To win an award at such a highly-regarded event as the RoSPA Awards is a great achievement for our winners. It recognises their commitment to maintaining an excellent health and safety record and raises the bar for other organisations to aspire to. We offer them our congratulations.
"This year was doubly special for our winners as their achievements were recognised as the RoSPA Awards celebrated its diamond anniversary, which is a ringing endorsement of the thousands of businesses and organisations that have committed to continuous improvement in accident and ill-health prevention."
Mark Plato, telent CEO, said "Winning a RoSPA award truly highlights the commitment shown by all of our staff and drivers to safety. Through our Driver Safety Programme, which has taken a much more proactive approach to improving road safety over the past three years, we are able to continually improve how we manage work related road risk. The wellbeing of our staff is of paramount importance to telent and we strive to prevent accidents and ill health."
"Around 15 million business miles were driven in 2015 and we are dedicated to our ongoing driving and fleet improvements which are informed by RoSPA and BRAKE guidelines and research."
The majority of awards are non-competitive and mark achievement at merit, bronze, silver and gold levels. Gold medals, president's awards and orders of distinction are presented to organisations sustaining the high standards of the gold level over consecutive years.
Competitive awards go to the best entries in 24 industry sectors including construction, healthcare, transport and logistics, engineering, manufacturing and education.
There are specialist awards for occupational health, environmental management and fleet safety, and excellence trophies for the best international, new entry, workforce involvement and organisation operating or based in Scotland. RoSPA's top accolade is the Sir George Earle Trophy.

text: Résumé speaks for itself; it states what you are, and where you want to be. With the role of HR professionals widening with the changes in the business world, any additional experience is an added advantage. The shift into defining the strategies by HR in the recent years has brought about a different meaning to a career in human resources. Getting noticed amongst a set of résumés requires conscious effort from the part of the employee. Before drafting the résumé the candidate must identify the probable employer, and analyse his area of business. He should ensure himself that the expected career switch and advancement is possible through a job in the short listed company. With many companies having outsourced a great many of its HR functions, one should guarantee the presence of the role before sending out the application. Once the openings or a list of roles has been identified, the next step is tailoring the résumé and the covering letter to match the role in mind. A single résumé to all the companies will fail to attract the attention of the prospective employer. Achievements defined in the résumé must have significant impact or relationship to the job applied for. Like any résumé, the résumé for HR professionals should point out the significant accomplishments made by the candidate. The area of specialisation and his contributions to the same must be highlighted. With the scope of work in HR widening, the area of specialisation could be wide and varied. A candidate's accomplishments might vary to his role in and input to recruitment and retention of the key employees of his organisation even during the times of recession. With many companies acquiring or merging with foreign companies, the people management requires the guidance of an expert to maintain a cordial relationship amongst the employees. With many opportunities springing up for an HR professional to display his talents and skills, highlighting his achievements and the knowledge in those area of work that is relevant to the job applied for should be emphasized in his résumé. The past experience could have helped the individual in gaining knowledge that has augmented his skills. These should be identified and résumé should be used as a medium to sell the skills so gained. If possible, it should reflect how the candidate could employ it in the line of business of the new company. This is possible only after understanding the market of the company and its general policies. The résumé should be drafted with an objective in mind and must revolve around it. Jargons should be avoided at all costs as it can render them useless. If the candidate was forced to leave his current employer on account of performance, he should mention the measures taken by him to overcome the negative feedbacks. However, the candidate must wipe out the reason for the loss of employment and the negative factors in the résumé. In short résumé should reveal your accomplishments so far and the probable accomplishments to the new employer in a clear, concise manner.

'Stunningly bizarre': Ohio public library cancels LGBT Pride event after backlash
An Ohio public library canceled an LGBT Pride week event after it sparked outrage from the Republican speaker of the state House.
Ohio House Speaker Larry Householder sent a letter to the Ohio Library Council on Friday demanding that the Licking County Library in Newark stop a planned Pride week event. The event, aimed at teens, featured a tutorial on applying makeup for dressing in drag and a guide to safe sex, according to the Newark Advocate.
"When I was first informed our public libraries were being used to teach teenage boys how to become drag queens, I thought it was a joke," Householder said. "But the joke is apparently on the taxpayers, who fund our libraries. This is a stunningly bizarre breach of the public trust. And it must stop."
"Let me be crystal clear: This isn't about banning books or banning thought or any other red herring argument. This is about right and wrong. This is about being good stewards of the public's money," Householder said.

The LGBTQ people are trying to change everything to it's own queer agendas. They have taken the Lord's Rainbow and changed the color to suit their tastes along with everything else they transform.
Homosexuality is not just a sin it is an ABOMINATION. Leviticus 18:22 , Leviticus 20:13.
Thank You Lord That You Had Larry Householder In Office to Stop This Horrific display of disgust. PEOPLE REMEMBER WHAT HAPPENED TO SODOM AND GOMORRAH. Jesus came to forgive those who turned from their sins. REPENT NOW BEFORE YOU GO TO HELL FOR THE ACTS OF ABOMINATION YOU ARE SO PROUD OF. IT'S ONLY TO LATE WHEN YOUR DEAD & YOU DIDN'T BELIEVE IN GOD'S WORD as TRUTH.
Tax payers pay for our library's to benefit the education of our children. We Don't Need Them Educated By The LGBTQ's. Grow Up People, Get in the Word Of God, and Stop Thinking that Your Way Is The Right Way. It's Gods Way, Or The Highway. Think about where you are going to spend eternity instead of the 70 or 80 years on this earth. There is more after we pass on. Read Scripture (Our Country Was Founded On It) AND in IT you will find the truth."""" HE That Has an Ear, LET HIM HEAR"""", Rev 2:17, Mat 11:15, Mat 13: 9-16, Rev 3:13, Mark 4:9 & So On & So Forth. It's Time, Are You READY?
The LGBT leader states that no public funds were to pay for that event, fair enough, however what does he/she think is paying for the library building, it's maintenance, insurance and employees. If he/she wants it to truly be privately funded, then by all means do it in a private venue, or have someone with a private venue volunteer and pay that building.
Thank you Jesus for putting a halt to this atrocious event. I am so pleased our Ohio representative, Larry Householder stood firm for truth and refusal to host this evil event to our children as an acceptable life style sayeth our Lord and Savior. Amen

Today – being the false prediction of the Mayan's Doomsday, or whatever they call it, being December 21, 2012, as the false prophets and idolaters have done and gone before and taught falsehood – we, brother Lungisa Zondi, my grandson Cee-Jay and myself, went out along the Durban beachfront to preach our Lord Jesus Christ and Him crucified, resurrected and ascended. We went and quelled the man-made rumours and preached the Truth sharing Matthew 24:36 ~
Matthew 24:36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.
We were also blessed with meeting many people today as we shared Jesus Christ with many tribes, tongues and nationalities. It was a day spent for the glory of God Almighty alone.
Please keep Bheki Nhlumayo, Sandile, Thami and many other nameless individuals that our Great King and God Jesus Christ knows who were spoken to, received Gospel tracts and were ministered to privately and through the open-air preaching of God's Word. We also ask that you keep an Indian man who blasphemed, cursed, ranted-and-raved, and even gave a growing crowd an "ear-tickling" word as to the god he shared. We pray for his hard and defiled (dirty) heart to be changed. We say dirty for it was the condition of his Mark 7 heart that poured from his mouth:
Mark 7:20 And he [Jesus] said, That which cometh out of the man, that defileth the man.
Mark 7:21 For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders,
Mark 7:22 Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness:
Mark 7:23 All these evil things come from within, and defile the man.
Today we also shared the True birth of Jesus Christ from the Holy Scriptures in Luke 1 and 2 which is in the Hebrew month of Tishri (September/October) and not the false day of December 25! It was also our first day in Durban being the beginning of this festive season in which we will be preaching Jesus Christ and Him crucified and warning people of their idolatries of celebrating Xmas that is also known as "the Profane Man's Ranting Day, the Superstitious Man's Idol Day, the Papist's Massing Day, the Old Heathen's Feasting Day, the Multitude's Idle Day, and Satan-that Adversary's-Working Day."
Brethren, go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature, speaking all Truth! Including the true birth of Jesus Christ! If you preach anything else – you preach a different and false jesus!

The majority of high school students participate in some form of extra-curricular activities. In addition to sports and cheer squad, there are opportunities to sign up for a wide range of afterschool clubs, theater and study groups. The immediate benefit of these activities is that it keeps the student engaged and challenged. There are some more surprising benefits of extra-curricular activities to consider:
Increased Self-Respect
Extra-curricular activities can help promote an increased sense of self-respect. That is vital to foster especially with preteen and teen girls. Going out for the cheerleading squad can help a young girl overcome a fear of getting up in front of a crowd. That is a skill set that will help her in every subsequent job interview and board meeting. Highlands School discusses how extracurricular activities build skills which will in turn help children and teens feel confident and capable. The activities all come with goals. Accomplishing those goals provides confidence. That is something every child should have.
Lower Likelihood of Risky Behaviors
When a student signs up for extra-curricular activity, they are instantly becoming part of a group that can provide emotional support for that student. This helps lower the risk of engaging in risky behaviors like alcohol, drug abuse, or sexual activity. When isolated, many teens turn to those behaviors as a way of filling a void. That can lead to serious problems. The Recovery Village talks about how teenage and young adult girls make up larger and larger proportions of heroin use. It could be that participating in extracurricular activities will simply make them too busy to get involved with those bad habits.
Improved Health and Fitness
Extra-curricular activities like cheer and sports can improve the overall health and fitness of teens. They will certainly get in at least one hour a day of physical activity, if not more. Whatever strength building they do at this age will benefit them later on in life especially with issues like bone density. That is something every woman will deal with after a certain age.
Builds Leadership Skills
Whether the activity is on the playing field or the classroom, the teen will be part of a team. That provides the chance to build up their leadership skills. You don't have to be the captain of the cheer squad or football team to be a leader. Teens can set an example of working hard at practice and doing their best at play. TalentSmart recommends to let teens and children be independent as frequently as possible, as this will help them gain experience leading, but also to learn how to handle making good and bad choices and living with the consequences of each.
Looks Great on a Resume
Once high school starts, the quest for getting into college begins. Academics are a major determining factor for admissions. However, Wisdify explains that extra-curricular activities help create a stronger portrait of that student. They are able to show where the student's interests are and how they can benefit their chosen course of study. Colleges want students to be role models for their institutions. That means finding well-rounded candidates who are active in their community and schools. Extra-curricular activities can provide that in abundance.
Even though family schedules can get a bit hectic with the inclusion of extra-curricular activities, it will be worth the effort. You want your kids to look back on this time with fondness. All the lessons they'll be learning will become the foundation for their lives out in "the real world."
