Nurturing adolescent aspirations in Jharkhand
Girl Champion Neelam at the Kishori Ekta Youth Club in Jharkhand
Celebrating the International Day of the Girl Child this year was special with a visit to Jharkhand in early October. The Kishori Ekta Youth Club, a good two-and-a-half hour drive from Deoghar in Jharkhand, is located in the Phadam village in Palajori block, and is well connected by tar roads. The drive speeds past hillocks, lush green landscapes, clear air, herds of goats, and ducklings. Towards the end of the village, just next to the main road, is a pucca house with a narrow entrance. The world behind the narrow entrance took me by surprise. The walls are full of artwork by adolescent girls – hearts, parrots, peacocks, menstruating women, arms raised asking for menstrual hygiene, impressions of girls' hands on the charts with their photographs, their names and much more.
At the adolescent girls' centre, about twenty girls aged between 10 and 16 have gathered. After a round of introductions, they head outside into the open space around the house for some routine gameplay. Once back inside, they energetically fished out board games – one on myths about menstrual hygiene, another on factors that could support or impede the journey of an adolescent girl to be self-reliant, and another on problem-solving in times of crisis. Some of them hadn't played the games before. They read the instructions out loud, shared their own interpretations and ended up in a laughing heap as the confusion grew.

As we spoke, I found the girls loved to play and paint at the centre – two very powerful mediums to liberate the body and express voice. Some of these girls had just restarted school as secondary schools are now slowly reopening in Jharkhand. Others were looking forward to the opening of their own schools – some of which are a good 8-10kms away from the village. I wondered what that distance would mean for them, and asked about their commute. "We will cycle to school!", they all said confidently. Not even for a moment was there an iota of doubt in any of them – they were determined to to study, and they had worked out how to overcome the barrier of distance.
During the lockdown some of them learnt to make rakhis, decorate diyas that earned them Rs 10-15 each. They kept these earnings to use in the club, where even some the younger ones proudly shared that they had "learnt something to earn that money."

Neelam is a Girl Champion for the community where this centre is located. A Girl Champion is a peer educator who facilitates club activities and is often seen as a role model in the community. She told me that while the club usually welcomes about 10 or 15 girls on a typical day, they had a special reason for gathering in larger numbers on that day. The club was getting a computer, and the Quest Alliance Anandshala team was setting it up. Like any 'NGOwali', I checked if the girls had used computers before. None of them had, even though some of them were in grade 10 and 11. But they had seen a computer, and understood the concept. When I asked some more questions about accessibility to digital platforms, they revealed that a majority of them had used a mobile phone for calls or messages, but not computers. Intrigued, I wanted to know what caused the excitement over this computer here at the centre. One of the girls volunteered an answer – "We will use Google!". When asked how that would help, she replied in a typical adolescent tone – that unique mix of exasperation and amusement – "Humko nahi pata aur kya ho sakta hai computer pe, hum dekhenge toh pata chalega na?" (We don't know what else can be done with a computer, we will know once we work (look) into it). The spirit of curiosity and exploration was obvious, apart from the palpable joy of the entire group celebrating the arrival of a computer.
Seeing the club in action gave me hope, and sparked many thoughts and ponderings. The girls in this club in remote Jharkhand seem confident, curious, wanting to explore, and ready to take risks. If we assume a similar spirit kindled in adolescents across the state, why then does Jharkhand have high child marriage rates, and issues of early pregnancy? The delicate spirit of this group resonated strongly with me. It is a spirit which, if nurtured, could only grow stronger and take on challenges as a community, but if throttled could get discouraged quickly.
This was a sobering reminder of what many individuals experience during the adolescent phase. In contrast, Neelam is a wonderful example of that spirit nurtured. Having had to discontinue her studies due to health issues in the family, coupled with mounting education fees and other costs, she saved an honorarium payment, enrolled in college and is currently facilitating the club and pursuing her studies. In a way, she personifies the impact of Girl Champions in the community.
As State, society and civil society organisations, can we truly be open to engage with adolescent girls and parents, with the objective to encourage them? Each one has a role to play in making our schools a space that is encouraging and engaging. How do we as CSO's not label programmes and not favour certain kinds of strategies over others? How do both state and CSO's make parents allies and not operate in the paradigm of "parents are not interested"? These are questions that need quick and effective answers. Most importantly, we must acknowledge that adolescent girls are part of the solutioning, and models can be built to harness the adolescent spirit. Games, play, income-generating activities, modules and courses, health, computers, literacy – we need it all to support adolescent girls in the country. Many more Neelams are in the making at the club. They have defined their own paths, and we owe it to them to support their dreams and ambitions.

Making informed career decisions.
An analysis of the kind of career decisions taken up by women trainees after their ITI training.
We live in a world of paradoxes and the declining participation of women in the labour force is one such reality that has become a cause of concern and shame for all of us. Despite rising-levels of education in women, year-on-year, the Female Labour Force Participation Rate(FLPR) of women in India is on the decline. This dismal trend represents the way women are perceived in our households, forced to make compromises at every step of their career journeys.
"I was interested in studying engineering but my parents asked me to join this Industrial Training Institute (ITI) and study the beautician course – they did not want me to do an office job and this ITI was near our house," says Radhika (name changed), Student, State Govt Women ITI
Radhika's reality is not uncommon among women, who pursue vocational education in government-run women ITIs. The pandemic has only made matters worse and further exacerbated this gender divide in the workforce. According to the Centre for Monitoring Indian Economy (CMIE), as of November 2020, 67% of all men of working age (15-64) were employed, in comparison to just 9% of women, who were employed in the same period of time.
The second wave of the pandemic which was more intense and led to an exponentially large number of deaths has made it even more difficult for women to enter the workforce. But, amidst this grim reality, are there new trends in employment for women that have emerged?
"Earlier I was looking for jobs related to my trade but there were so many issues like low salary, timings and distance from home. I then came across a tele-calling role which paid more and I was able to convince my family to take it up, even though it had nothing to do with my trade," says Nikitaben Tadvi, an alumna of Basic Cosmetology from NSTI, Vadodara.
In March 2021, Quest Alliance analysed the placement trends of 3983 women graduating from ITIs and NSTIs across Delhi, Gujarat, Rajasthan and Tamil Nadu. We specifically looked at what sectors and roles working alumni have taken up.
According to the study, during the pandemic, 46% of the working alumni opted for non-trade based employment, garnering a monthly income of Rs. 8400 which is Rs.600 more than income from trade-specific employment.
This finding must be placed in the context of the challenges women face in ITIs to convince families to allow them to pursue a career. Family support (or the lack of it) plays a pivotal role in key career decisions made by women post course completion. Factors like distance from home & perceptions about the type of jobs women can do play a significant role in ensuring if a young woman enters the workforce.
The findings in that respect indicate that women in ITIs were able to negotiate with families to take up non-trade specific job roles owing to higher average monthly incomes and greater flexibility with respect to location and job timings. New employment options like work from home due to the pandemic has also helped many women enter the workforce.
"I used to work as a teacher before the pandemic. But after I lost my job, I decided to take up a work from home job opportunity as a telecaller. I get paid Rs. 12,000 a month and work from the convenience of my home," says Janvi Harvi, an alumna of fashion design technology from Govt. ITI, Junagad (woman).
The study also looked into state-specific trends and offered insights on the kind of jobs women in ITIs were pursuing post course-completion.
While Delhi had 42% working alumni who took up trade-specific jobs; Rajasthan on the other hand had 74% women working in trade-specific jobs. The difference in states may be attributed to availability of trade-specific industry, migrant population in a region and the perception of families regarding the kind of employment suitable for women.
Quest Alliance's intervention in women ITIs and NSTIs since the past four years has helped influence deep seated perceptions in families about the need for women to enter the workforce, and the kind of jobs they can take up. Activities like virtual parent engagement initiated by Quest Alliance in collaboration with ITIs and NSTIs, during the pandemic, have given parents an opportunity to both understand and support the aspirations of their daughters.
"I promise to support my daughter in her career and bring up marriage only when she is of the right age to take decisions on this," says Jitendra Kumar, a parent of an ITI student in Delhi
Additionally, the Placement Officers in ITIs and NSTIs have also played a pivotal role in negotiating with parents to support their daughters to take up non-trade based jobs. Events like virtual job fairs, industry guest sessions, and job drives organized in collaboration with Quest Alliance have gone a long way in supporting women students in ITIs find a job despite the pandemic.
"The one thing that I am really proud of as a Placement Officer is that even during the pandemic, we were able to place our trainees via a virtual job fair. In UP, women trainees are weary of the private sector. They think that as women the only thing they can do is work as trainers in ITIs or as teachers for the government. It is this deep rooted mindset that we are up against. And, every placement in the private sector feels like a small victory" says Neerja Sood, PO, NSTI (W), Allahabad, Uttar Pradesh
The intervention by Quest Alliance in collaboration with ITIs and NSTIs across states in India is a testament to the fact that a concerted effort in changing deep rooted perceptions about women entering the workforce can bring in long-term behavioral change in families and encourage more women to enter the workforce.
An ecosystem level approach involving all stakeholders (parents, students & institutes) has helped women students in ITIs and NSTIs make use of opportunities like work from home or take up higher paying non-trade based jobs during the pandemic. For a woman to take up work of her choice; she needs to be self-confident, believe in herself and speak out and negotiate. Therefore this choice to work in a trade based or non trade based sector is a function of women's agency.
Quest Alliance's intervention has helped women develop this agency and given them the confidence to take control of their careers and learning journey.
Key insights from the study can be seen here.
About the JPM project:
Quest Alliance, supported by JP Morgan, has worked with 84 ITIs and NSTIs across 19 states impacting around 40,000 disadvantaged young women since January 2018. Women are provided essential life and career development skills. The program also seeks to influence systems change, through capacity building of ITI leadership, placement officers and trainers on gender sensitization, industry engagement and placements.

Gender and Self-learning: Autonomy for the Vulnerable During Crisis
Because making a choice is always a political decision. And when systems do not allow for that to happen, no amount of agency building exercise will be fruitful.
Our programs and processes have been built upon the vision of enabling self-learners.
Self-learning is a process by which the learner takes charge of her learning journey. This manifests in the form of choosing what to learn, when to learn, from whom, how, and to what extent. While the self in self-learning may sound like everything is dependent on the individual, it is not a lonely activity. The emphasis on self emerges from the need for placing the agency of choice-making in the hands of the learner as opposed to a system or an institution determining the best pathway for an individual to achieve their goals.

How can we make women ITIs future-ready?
As a step towards bringing more women to the workforce, Quest Alliance – in partnership with JP Morgan – hosted a round table on 'Driving Holistic Reform in the Women ITI Ecosystem in India'.
With the aim of bridging the gender gap in India's workforce, the multi-stakeholder participation led to several important solution strategies.
Women's participation in the workforce continues to decline across the world. The situation is particularly stark in India, some of the reasons for which are expounded here.
While the battle to fight social norms keeping women away from the workforce will be a protracted one, an urgent step towards bridging the gender gap in India's workforce was taken in the form of a round table on 'Driving Holistic Reform in the Women ITI Ecosystem in India'.

What is keeping women from working in India?
Women's labour force participation has never looked promising, but the decline in numbers in the last two decades have been alarming. One of the major reasons for this drop is the rise in the number of women in formal education, which in turn delays their entry into the job market.
But the real travesty is that the few who do enter the labour force are faced with gendered distribution of jobs, which is mostly concentrated in low productivity industries.
Women's careers may be peaking in the world of Indian films, but the narrative in real life tells a different story. Only 27% are in the labour force – down from 35% in 2004. And this fall is even sharper when seen from the lens of women in the age group of 15-24 years. Almost half are not in education, employment or training, compared to just 8% of young men.
This is critical in the larger context of declining female labour force participation rates (FLPRs).
According to a report by the Centre for Monitoring Indian Economy (CMIE), while 2.4 million women fell off the employment map, jobs for men increased by 0.9 million in the same time period. This meant that while women were quitting jobs, more men were joining the workforce.
Why is this happening? Why are women withdrawing from the world of work?

Conservation Physiology for the Anthropocene: A Systems Approach, Volume 39A in the Fish Physiology series, is a comprehensive synthesis on the physiology of fish in the Anthropocene. This volume closes the knowledge gap by considering the many ways in which different physiological systems (e.g., sensory physiology, endocrine, cardio-respiratory, bioenergetics, water and ionic balance and homeostasis, locomotion/biomechanics, gene function) and physiological diversity are relevant to management and conservation. As the world is changing, with a dire need to identify solutions to the many environmental problems facing wild fish populations, this book comprehensively covers conservation physiology and its future techniques.
Conservation physiology reveals the many ways in which environmental change and human activities can negatively influence wild fish populations. These tactics inform new management and conservation activities and help create the necessary conditions for fish to thrive.

She went on for a PhD in Zoology (2007) at the University of British Columbia and held a National Science Foundation postdoctoral fellowship at UC Santa Barbara before moving to her current faculty position at UC Davis in 2009. Studies in the Fangue lab are largely focused on determining the ecological significance of physiological variation in aquatic species that inhabit nature and anthropogenically-challenging environments. A key goal of her research is to provide strategies designed to minimize environmental impacts, rebuild wildlife populations, restore ecosystems, inform conservation policy, generate decision-support tools and manage natural aquatic resources. The Fangue lab is composed of a large research team of postdoctoral scholars, graduate and undergraduate students, and technical staff, and we are committed to a safe, inclusive, diverse, optimistic and equitable research environment. Dr. Fangue has received numerous advising awards including the faculty excellence award from NACADA: The Global Community for Academic Advising in 2017. Dr. Fangue serves on the editorial board of the journal "Conservation Physiology" and is a UC Davis Chancellor's Fellow. Dr. Erika Eliason is an Assistant Professor at the University of California, Santa Barbara. She received her BSc from Simon Fraser University, MSc and PhD from the University of British Columbia, and held an NSERC postdoctoral fellowship at the University of Sydney and Carleton University. As an ecological physiologist, Dr. Eliason uses a combination of field and lab-based studies to investigate how fish cope with anthropogenic stressors (e.g. temperature, fisheries interactions). Much of her research focuses on how climate change affects physiological performance across populations, age, body size, and sex in marine and freshwater fishes. Tackling both basic and applied questions, Dr. Eliason's research is informing conservation policy and enhancing the management of natural resources. Dr. Eliason has served on the editorial board for ICES Journal of Marine Science, Journal of Fish Biology and Canadian Journal of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences.

Worldwide Olympic Partner P held a special press event to recognise the role and contribution that mums play in supporting Olympians and to celebrate the opening of the P Family Home at the London 2012 Olympic Games.
The P&G Family Home is a place where Olympians and their families can relax, unwind, and be together. In the P&G Family Home, the company will offer athletes, their mothers and families services provided by many of P&G's trusted brands, such as beauty, grooming and laundry services and a Pampers playground.
P&G, which, in the run-up to the Games, has supported 150 athletes who have featured in advertising and retail programmes, has also offered a "Thank You, Mum" gift to mothers of Olympians. For some, the gift will help them travel to London to watch their child compete at the Olympic Games.
In addition, as part of P&G's commitment to the Olympic Movement, the company asked hundreds of mothers what it could do to honour all that mothers do for their children. The response was to support the youth sports organisations around the world. So in January at the Youth Olympic Games in Innsbruck, Austria, P&G committed to raise USD 5 million for youth sports programmes through sales of its brands.

Guardsmen Teach Veterinary Skills to Afghans
DVIDS | By Sgt. Ned Johnson
CAMP LEATHERNECK, Afghanistan — In rural Afghanistan, many Afghans raise livestock and grow crops for survival and not profit. The death of a goat or loss of crops could lead to hungry children for a family.
In northern Helmand province, soldiers with the Georgia National Guard Agricultural Development Team III, Regimental Combat Team 7, are working with Afghan government agents to educate local farmers about livestock.
District levels of the Government of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan employ agricultural, irrigation and livestock agents. The veterinary team, headed by U.S. Army Maj. Eugene Johnson, a veterinarian with ADT III, travels to the districts to teach these government employees.
Once the Vet Team teaches the government official, the Afghan then teaches his own people. The Afghan agricultural agents use posters in Pashtu to teach basic veterinary lessons designed by the soldiers.
"We are giving them the knowledge to teach their people their way," said Johnson, a native of Platte City, MO. "They keep asking for more because they want the knowledge."
The vet team gives the initial class, but after that the Afghans have done a great job teaching the local farmers, said Spc. Cynthia Medina, a native of Canton, Ga., and a veterinarian technician with ADT III.
"He was asking questions to the farmers and being interactive," Medina said about one of the Afghans teaching a class. "The class went very well."
The team teaches classes on nutrition, disease and parasites. Johnson said the team focuses the classes based on issues given to them by the Afghans.
The animal experts also try to provide affordable solutions based around items readily available in Helmand.
"We always try to keep their country in mind," Johnson said. "If we can teach them simple things to improve their livestock, we can make a big difference."
Many of the Afghans have no formal education but are very willing to learn all they can because it affects their lives, Johnson said. They are also willing to show the soldiers how they usually do things, so Johnson and his team can show them ways to improve. Medina created a simulated calf, spending a week coloring in its spots and features to make it look real, so the Afghans could conduct practical application training. The team also uses a wooden, simulated cow pelvis to show the Afghans techniques for birthing.
The soldiers with ADT III, who have been here since January, think their hands-on approach has worked and would not have it any other way.
"We've made a lot of ground, and I believe we have made an impact," Johnson said. "There's no place I'd rather be than working with the guys on the ground."

Customers need to make sure they're getting the answers they need."Here's a look at what consumers and businesses should know about Heartbleed and its effects on networking devices.How is networking equipment affected?Just like websites, the software used to run some networking equipment such as routers, switches and firewalls also uses the variant of SSL/TLS known as OpenSSL. OpenSSL is the set of tools that has the Heartbleed vulnerability.As with a website, hackers could potentially use the bug as a way to breach a system and gather and steal passwords and other sensitive information.What can you do?Security experts continue to advise people and businesses to change their passwords, but that won't be Converse Trainers White
Heartbleed could harm a variety of tech systems
enough unless the company that created the software in question has put the needed fixes in place.When it comes to devices, this could take a while. Although websites can be fixed relatively quickly by installing a software update, device makers will have to check each product to see if it needs to be fixed.Both Cisco Systems Inc. and Juniper Networks Inc. continue to advise customers through their websites on which product is still vulnerable, fixed and unaffected. Owners may need to install software updates for products that are "fixed."Hayes praises Cisco and Juniper for being upfront with customers. He cautions, though, that many other companies make similar products that likely Converse Tennis Shoes
have the bug, too, but haven't come forward to say so.As a result, businesses and consumers need to check the websites for devices that they think could have problems. They must be diligent about installing any software updates they receive.Weber says that while there are some checks companies can do to see if their networking equipment is safe, they're largely beholden to the device makers to let them know what's going on.Companies also need to make sure that business partners with access to their systems aren't compromised as well.Are other devices at risk?Hayes says the bug could potentially affect any home device that's connected to the Internet, including something as simple as a Wi Fi enabled Blu ray player.He also points to recent advances in home automation, such as smart thermostats, security and lighting systems. Now, it appears that the computer bug is affecting not just websites, but also networking equipment including routers, switches and firewalls.The extent of the damage caused by the Heartbleed is unknown. The security hole exists on a vast number of the Internet's Web servers and went undetected for more than two years. Although it's conceivable that the flaw was never discovered by hackers, it's difficult to tell.There isn't much that people can do to protect themselves completely until the affected websites implement a fix. And in the case of networking equipment, that could be a while.Here are three things you can do to reduce the threat: Change your passwords. This isn't a full proof solution. It'll only help if the website in question has put in place required security patches. You also might want to wait a week and then change them again.
NEW YORK It now appears that the "Heartbleed" security problem affects not just websites, but also the networking equipment that connects homes and businesses to the Internet.A Converse Dainty Ballerina Navy defect in the security technology used by many websites and equipment makers have put millions of passwords, credit card numbers and other personal information at risk. The extent of the damage caused by Heartbleed isn't known. The threat went undetected for more than two years, and it's difficult to tell if any attacks resulted from it because they don't leave behind distinct footprints.But now that the threat is public, there's a good chance hackers will try to exploit it before fixes are in place, says Mike Weber, vice president of the information technology audit and compliance firm Coalfire.Two of the biggest makers of networking equipment, Cisco and Juniper, have acknowledged that some of their products contain the bug, but experts warn that the problem may extend to other companies as well as a range of Internet connected devices such as Blu ray players."I think this is very concerning for many people," says Darren Converse Shoes Ladies Size 9

Claiming that it would be "premature" to conclude that an Iranian group was behind the attack on an Israeli embassy vehicle here on Monday, Delhi Police Commissioner B K Gupta said here on Tuesday that investigators have sought information and samples of similar explosive devices used in strikes in Georgia and Thailand.
Speaking at a press conference, Gupta said that sleuths were focusing on Iranians living in Delhi. Besides, other police and intelligence sources said that passenger manifests of some foreign airlines were also being checked to unearth clues to the possible entry of men of Iranian origin into the country.
Intelligence analysts said that the attack, which could be part of a covert operation, appeared to be a replication of strikes that a dissident Iranian group called the Mujahideen-e-Khalq (MEK) undertook to kill Iranian nuclear scientists, including Mostafa Ahmadi-Roshan, the deputy director of the Natanz uranium enrichment facility in central Iran last month.
Two motorcyle-borne men had attached a magnetic bomb on Ahmadi-Roshan's car which exploded seconds later. The MEK is suspected to be involved in similar attacks since 2007. Gupta said that Israeli authorities have been requested to share information and samples of the explosive devices used in Tbilisi (Georgian capital) and Bangkok where too investigators probed car explosions in which suspected magnetic bombs were used. A vehicle on which a magnetic bomb was found attached to was detected and defused in Tbilisi Monday.
Gupta said that the magnetic bomb used in Monday's attack "was the size of a palmtop, not bigger than a brick" and that isuch a device has not been used before in terror attacks in India. But the police commissioner added that the report of the Central Forensics Science Laboratory would would provide vital information on the nature of the explosive and the mechanism used to set it off.
Ruling out the involvement of Indian terrorist outfits, Gupta said police teams were checking on and verifying the antecedants of Iranians living in some parts of Delhi, including Paharganj.
The commissioner said that the police is also on the lookout for a red motorcycle that the hitman used.
Closed-circuit television footages did not provide much help to the police. On the basis of the footages, the police detained five persons, but let them off when nothing related to the attack emerged following their questioning. "The bomb would have exploded in three to five seconds after it was stuck on the vehicle. The attacker then hit a boulevard, moved to the other lane, apparently took a left turn and fled," Gupta said, adding that the motorcyclist was very well trained.
The police have also sought CCTV footage of the last seven days from all private and government buildings, including the Israeli embassy and the Canadian high commission, to examine the movement of suspicious persons, if any.
The magnetic bomb has its origin in the Second World War, reports DHNS from New Delhi.
Designed to make it stick to tanks, a hand-held explosive device containing a strong adhesive was extensively used by the British soldiers in World War II as an ad hoc solution to the lack of sufficient anti-tank guns in the aftermath of the Dunkirk evacuation.
Tough to spot and easy to adhere, a small magnet bomb is a mixture of C4, a common variety of plastic explosive, combined with an accelerant and then packed with shrapnel or any other metal.
A detonator is always used to trigger the magnetic bomb. Roughly the size of a brick or palm, the bomb made up of explosives will explode in five seconds after getting attached to a car or a truck.


I found this particular article on the about.com site, and as it's been written with a bias towards prudence when choosing a personal trainer, I thought it was quite apt. SM.
Everyone knows that regular exercise is the best way to lose weight, tone up the body and reduce unwanted fat. A well maintained exercise routine can also help reduce many health risks, including diabetes, high blood pressure, cancer, and heart disease. Fitness training also helps to build and maintain healthy bones, muscles, and joints, can reduce feelings of depression and anxiety, and reduces stress and increases energy.
Then why, if the benefits are so self-evident, isn't everyone out there jogging or hitting the weights in order to achieve their fitness goals? Some of the excuses that people make are lack of commitment and motivation, busy lifestyle, lack of proper knowledge to safely and effectively exercise – all are warranted but all are easily overcome when employing the services of a personal trainer. A trainer acts as a guide and consultant, assisting clients in a variety of capacities to enable them to lead a healthier life. People who hire personal trainers are looking to optimize their invested time and effort, and minimize their risk.
If you're just starting out, a personal trainer will put together a well-balanced fitness program, guiding you through each phase with step-by-step instruction, and giving you the requisite knowledge and tools needed to adopt and maintain a healthy lifestyle. For those just getting started, regular sessions with a personal trainer serve as the catalyst to incorporate exercise into a busy lifestyle.
Perhaps you already exercise regularly, but are not achieving the results you had hoped for. It's common for the benefits of exercise to 'plateau' as your body becomes accustomed to an exercise program. When all the hard work and sweat are not having the desired effect it's often hard to stay motivated. Employing the services of a personal trainer can 'shake up' your fitness regime by adding variety to your exercise program, re-focusing your goals, and providing you with that much-needed extra edge.
Whether you're young or old, a beginner or have worked out for years, the most effective way to achieve any fitness goal is to have a personal trainer guide, monitor and motivate you along the way. Personal trainers aren't for everyone, but a trainer provides certain benefits that you can't find when working out on your own. Here are ten reasons a personal trainer may be right for you.
One of the main reasons people benefit from a personal trainer is that they lose the motivation to stick with a consistent exercise program. Certified personal trainers can provide structure and accountability, and help you develop a lifestyle that encourages health.
If you are an absolute beginner, a personal trainer is the ultimate fitness coach. A good trainer will introduce you to a very simple, effective routine and build efficiently so before you know it, you have the confidence and knowledge to decide what is right for yourself.
Ok, you are already in pretty decent shape, but you've been there for years. If you are stuck in the same routine and want to break out of a rut, a personal trainer is the perfect solution. A trainer will jump start, not only your motivation, but your routine as well.
If you ultimately want to learn all the facets of designing your own routines so you don't need to use a personal trainer, going for a few months may be all you need. All good personal trainers will teach you the basics of building and modifying a fitness program to achieve maximum results.
Many personal trainers make house calls. If you don't have the type or interest in going to a gym, but have a hard time knowing what to do on your own at home, a personal trainer can bring fitness into your living room.
A qualified personal trainer has an education in physiology, health promotion, athletic training, kinesiology or a similar field. They should have medic first aid and CPR certification as well as certification from an independant organization such as VTCT, YMCA, or similar.
Finally, why use a personal trainer? Well, you should feel comfortable with the trainer, his/her style of communication and the expectations of your time together.


The proposed $500 million sale of the Weinstein Company looks like it's gone up in smoke. NY Attorney General Schneiderman filed suit against TWC today as the sale was coming to the finish line. A group of investors led by former Small Business Administration head Maria Contreras-Sweet is now halted in its tracks.
Schneiderman according to reports was concerned that TWC president David Glasser would continue as president of the new, still to named company. Many of the TWC employees were also going to stay on even though Contreras-Sweet had started her bid calling for a clean sweep and all women running the shop. She caved pretty quickly when she realized she didn't know what she was doing, had no experience running a film studio.

Iaropolk Sviatoslavitch (en russe et en ukrainien : Ярополк Святославич) fut un prince Rus' de la dynastie des Riourikides, né entre 958 et 960 et qui régna de 972 à sa mort en 980. Il était le fils aîné de Sviatoslav.

Biographie

Iaropolk était le fils aîné du grand-prince  dit Sviatoslav le Brave (942-972), grand-prince de Kiev appartenant à la dynastie des Riourikides et d'une certaine Predslava, mentionnée dans le traité russo-byzantin de 945. Lorsqu'en 969 son père, Sviatoslav, annonça sa décision d'aller vivre à Pereïaslavets, en Bulgarie, Iaropolk hérita de Kiev, Oleg, reçut les terres drevlianes et Vladimir, le cadet, hérita de Novgorod. Ce n'est qu'en 972 que Iaropolk prit possession de son héritage, Olga, sa grand-mère, très malade, ayant prié son fils de surseoir à son plan jusqu'à sa mort.

Bientôt, la guerre éclata entre Iaropolk, devenu grand-prince, et son frère Oleg, parce que celui-ci avait tué le fils de l'un de ses hommes. Oleg fut tué au cours de la bataille où s'affrontèrent les deux princes et Iaropolk s'empara des possessions de son frère. Puis, il décida de conquérir Novgorod d'où Vladimir, prudent, s'était éloigné en apprenant la nouvelle de la mort d'Oleg. Ayant réuni à son profit l'ensemble des possessions de son père, Iaropolk s'établit à Novgorod .

Il tenta alors d'établir des contacts avec le monde occidental. Lambert d'Hersfeld rapporte que, le jour de Pâques 973, l'empereur germanique  reçut la visite d'envoyés de la Rous' (legati gentium Ruscorum) chargés de riches présents; quatre ans plus tard, il reçut le légat du pape  à Kiev.  En 979, il signa un traité d'amitié avec Ildéja, prince des Petchenègues et il reçut les ambassadeurs de l'empereur byzantin venus lui porter le tribut que Constantinople avait déjà payé à son père.

En 980, Vladimir revint d'exil avec une droujina (détachement) varègue et reprit Novgorod. Peu après, il envoya un message à Rogvold, prince de Polotsk, lui demandant la main de sa fille Rognéda. Mais il fut éconduit, Rognéda préférant Iaropolk, fils légitime de Sviatoslav, au bâtard Vladimir. Celui-ci, à la tête d'une armée composite, marcha alors contre Polotsk dont il s'empara, faisant Rognéda prisonnière alors qu'elle s'apprêtait à rejoindre Iaropolk, puis se dirigea vers Kiev où celui-ci s'était retranché. Vladimir s'entendit alors avec le voïvode de Iaropolk appelé Blud pour faire sortir Iaropolk de Kiev. Blud conseilla à Iaropolk de se réfugier dans la ville de Rodnya à l'embouchure de la rivière Ros'. Vladimir mit le siège devant Rodnya et obligea Iaropolk à négocier. Faisant confiance à Blud et à la promesse de son frère, Iaropolk se dirigea vers la forteresse où se trouvait Vladimir. Dès son arrivée, il fut attaqué par deux Varègues qui lui plongèrent leur épée dans le corps.

Conversion ?

Bien que Iaropolk n'ait jamais été baptisé, la question a été posée de savoir jusqu'à quel point Iaropolk se rapprochait du christianisme.

Le Chronicon d'Adémar de Chabannes et la Vie de saint Romuald de Pierre Damien décrivent comment saint Bruno de Querfurt fut envoyé dans la Rous' (latin Russia) et réussit à convertir un roi local (un des trois frères qui gouvernaient le pays) au christianisme. Les deux textes comportant de nombreux anachronismes, Vladimir Parkhomenko soutient que les actes de Bruno regroupent en fait des actions qu'il faut attribuer à ses prédécesseurs, Adalbert de  Prague et plusieurs missionnaires anonymes qui travaillaient en Europe de l'Est durant le règne d'.
Poursuivant ce raisonnement, l'historien  suggère que Iaropolk avait commencé les rites préparatoires au baptême, mais qu'il fut assassiné par son demi-frère païen dont les droits au trône étaient douteux, avant d'avoir pu être reçu dans la foi chrétienne. Toute information sur le baptême de Iaropolk suivant le rite latin aurait alors été supprimée par les chroniqueurs orthodoxes soucieux de conserver intacte l'image de Vladimir comme Apôtre de la Russie, pour les générations subséquentes.

On sait toutefois que, plusieurs années plus tard, Iaroslav le Sage (neveu de Iaropolk et fils de Vladimir) fit exhumer le corps du prince et lui donna une sépulture chrétienne. Il donna également le nom de Iaropolk à son petit-fils.

Mariage et descendance

Iaropolk était marié à une religieuse grecque, Julia, capturée en Bulgarie par son père. Après la mort de Iaropolk, Vladimir la viola ; elle devint enceinte d'un fils,  (vers 980-1019), dont, selon le chroniqueur, on ne sait s'il fut le fils de Iaropolk ou de Vladimir.

What Can Men Expect From Yoga?
Home/YOGA BY GROUP/Yoga for Men/What Can Men Expect From Yoga?
Very often, men wonder what they can expect from Yoga. Within the United States, Yogic practices have traditionally been seen as a woman's form of physical exercise. This view is diametrically-opposed to the traditional Indian view of the practice of Yoga training. Going back to the early Indus Valley Civilization, the deep study of Yogic methodology and philosophy was primarily the domain of men. Regardless of the cultural context, or the time period, men can expect a regular practice to enhance their health and well-being on a physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual level.
Physically, the regular practice of asanas (postures) will strengthen a man's muscles and ligaments, as well as, improve his sense of balance. Asanas will help to keep a man limber and flexible as he moves through the decades of his life. This flexibility will help to prevent injuries from muscles strains and torn ligaments. As a man ages, practicing balancing postures will also help to improve and hone his sense of balance, which is very important in preventing injuries, such as broken hips from falls. Additionally, with the regular practice of vigorous styles, such as Ashtanga, Power, Flow, or Vinyasa Yoga, a man's cardiac health will be improved, and his blood pressure could be lowered.
The pranayama techniques (breathing exercises) help to balance the brain, alleviate anxiety, and ease depression. The human need for pranayama is timeless. Our world moves at such a fast pace. The availability of all kinds of electronic technologies keeps us wired-in at all hours of the day and night. Many men and women are balancing a demanding career with personal family obligations. A brisk-paced schedule may have the effect of creating a frenetic mind and body. The breathing practices of Yoga help to restore balance to the parasympathetic and sympathetic nervous systems, allowing a man to slow down and rejuvenate his body and mind during a Yoga class.
On a spiritual level, gathering together with a group of like-minded, and often spiritually-oriented practitioners, will give a man the opportunity to connect with the energy within a Yoga school. In the practice of Yogic methodology, the body and mind are connected through pranayama, asana, meditation, and relaxation techniques. The inward focus of a Yoga class, the gathering of other practitioners, and the atmosphere, within a typical session, will all help a man to be in touch with, and nourish his mind, body, and spirit. By choosing to practice Yoga regularly, in a class setting or in the privacy of his own home, a man will reap many benefits – ranging from improved physical health and well-being to emotional balance and spiritual growth.
See our selection of Online Yoga teacher certification courses.
The regular practice of asanas will strengthen a man's muscles and ligaments, as well as, improve his sense of balance. Yoga has a lot of benefits for human being.
With the regular practice of vigorous styles, a man's cardiac health will be improved, and his blood pressure could be lowered. Thanks for this informative posting!
Numerous men and ladies are adjusting a requesting profession with individual family commitments. An energetic paced calendar may have the impact of making a frantic personality and body.

Mahmut Caglar was on the scoresheet for Biggleswade in their 6-0 win
Zoe Ashton
Published: 14:50 Monday 06 January 2020
Parkinson hat-trick and singles for Ryan Neufville, Charlie Clayton and Mahmut Caglar in season's biggest win
Biggleswade United ended their three-game losing streak away from home as a Dave Parkinson hat-trick inspired the visitors to their biggest win of the season at Crawley Green.
Ryan Neufville, Charlie Clayton and Mahmut Caglar also got on their scoresheet in a remarkable contest that saw three penalties awarded and Crawley's Michael Draycott sent off.
The away side were ahead on eight minutes when Parkinson's strike from the left deflected over the goalkeeper into the net.
Despite losing captain James Bishop to injury midway through the half, Caglar his replacement, United maintained control of the game and doubled their lead on 26 minutes as Parkinson squeezed in his second at the near post.
United would find a third goal before the break and when they worked a short corner into a position for Spavins to deliver dangerously with the flick-on diverting the ball to the back post for Neufville to hammer home.
Having surrendered a two-goal halftime lead against Crawley in the reverse fixture just over a month ago, it was imperative that the intensity levels were sustained in the second period.
And six minutes after the break any fears of a collapse were allayed when the highly productive Spavins crossed for Clayton to guide it into the net with his back heel.
Switching to the left flank, Spavins was on hand to create United's fifth of the game bending one on to the toe of Parkinson to complete his hat-trick on 72 minutes.
Three minutes later, the goalscorer was impeded in the area allowing Caglar to step and slot the ball into the bottom corner.
Had his teammates showed similar composure, Crawley could've suffered further humiliation as Milo Keane saw his penalty, which he won, saved.
Parkinson was next to try his luck from 12 yards after Draycott handled in the box and was red-carded but he struck the post as somehow the match finished with just the six goals for United.

Meizu MX5 Pricing And Availability
By Kristijan Lucic June 30, 2015, 5:31am
Meizu has announced three new devices during the company's press event in Beijing today. This Chinese smartphone OEM has announced the Depth-VR virtual reality glasses, a 10,000mAh Power Bank and most importantly, their new MX5 flagship smartphone. We've already talked about all three of these devices, and are here to take a closer look at the Meizu MX5's pricing and availability. So, if you're interested, read on.
As many of you probably know already, Meizu doesn't really sell their Android-powered devices outside of Europe, well, not officially at least considering you can't really buy a device straight from Meizu. You can always purchase Meizu's smartphones via Chinese resellers which ship all over the world, but not directly from the company. That being said, Meizu is doing a really good job promoting their devices all over the world in order to prepare the turf for the possible expansions and what not.
That being said, let's talk about Meizu MX5's pricing and availability. The company has released three different variants of their newest Meizu MX5 flagship, the 16, 32 and 64GB models. The cheapest model is priced at 1,799 Yuan ($290), the 32GB variant costs 1,999 Yuan ($322), and the 64GB model will set you back 2,399 Yuan ($403) if you choose to purchase it. Like with many of their previous devices, Meizu did a great job keeping these price points really low, and offer quite a solid set of specs and functionality. The Meizu MX5 flash sale reservations are already live in China, and if you're interested, visit Meizu's official webpage. The first sale will take place on July 5th, and the phone will ship at the end of July.
The Meizu MX5 sports a 5.5-inch 1080p (1920 x 1080) Super AMOLED display along with 3GB of RAM and 16, 32 or 64GB of internal storage. This handset is powered by MediaTek's Helio X10 64-bit octa-core processor, and a 3,150mAh battery is also included in this package and it offers mCharge fast charging capability. The 20.7-megapixel camera is available on the back of this handset, and below it you'll find a Laser Autofocus sensor. The 5-megapixel snapper is available up front, and the device ships with a physical home button which doubles as a fingerprint scanner. The MX5 is only 7.9mm thick, is made out of metal and it offers dual-SIM and 4G LTE connectivity.
