Did you have any association with AKS? If yes, you are most welcome to share your story/photo/anecdote with us. We will publish them on this portal with your name and photograph after suitable editing, if needed. The article can be in English or Hindi.
Alternatively, you can also send articles related to social and literary issues for publishing on this portal. Articles pertaining to Gandhi and Gandhism, Socialist and Sarvodaya ideology, and to English and Hindi Literature will be of special interest to us.
These articles may also be included in the Commemorative Volume on AKS which is under planning.
This, however, needs to be underlined that Prof. Sinha had deep distaste for any kind of 'vyakati pooja' or 'Hero-worship' and that is why perhaps he could maintain his intellectual integrity. Hence, while this website will most certainly try to bring to light the life and ideals of Prof. Sinha, an intellectual detachment will be maintained so that alongwith the personality of Prof. Sinha, the literary and social issues and discourse that engaged him and that he remained engaged with, also remain focused.
The PROF. ARUN KUMAR SINHA CENTRE FOR LITERARY AND SOCIAL UNDERSTANDING is an initiative of the students, associates and family-members of Prof. Sinha to explore the mulch-dimensional aspects of his personality and work, and will also provide a platform to discuss the literary and social issues that were so very dear to Prof. Sinha.


Of all the new features in Java 7, one of the more interesting is the WatchService, adding the capability to watch a directory for changes. The WatchService maps directly to the native file event notification mechanism, if available. If a native event notification mechanism is not available, then the default implementation will use polling. As a result, the responsiveness, ordering of events and details available are implementation specific.
As we can see from the example, the register method returns a WatchKey object. The WatchKey is a token that represents the registration of the Path with the WatchService.
The directory being watched is no longer available.
The WatchService object is closed.
On line 5 we are calling the pollEvents method to retrieve all the events for this WatchKey object. On line 9 you'll notice a call to the reset method. The reset method sets the WatchKey state back to 'ready' and returns a boolean indicating if the WatchKey is still valid. If there are any pending events, then the WatchKey will be immediately re-queued, otherwise it will remain in the ready state until new events are detected. Calling reset on a WatchKey that has been cancelled or is in the ready state will have no effect. If a WatchKey is canceled while it is queued, it will reamin in the queue until retrieved. Cancellation could also happen automatically if the directory was deleted or is no longer available.
What was the target of the event, i.e what Path object was created,deleted or updated?
On line 6 we see the WatchEvent.context method being invoked. The context method will return a Path object if the event was a creation, delete or update and will be relative to the watched directory. It's important to know that when a event is received there is no guarantee that the program(s) performing the operation have completed, so some level of coordination may be required.
The WatchService does not pick up events for sub-directories of a watched directory.
We still need to poll the WatchService for events, rather than receive asynchronous notification.
java.nio.file package that contains the WatchService, WatchKey and WatchEvent objects discussed here.

How much does it cost to go Disneyland?

How much it costs to go to Disneyland. Photo: Fred Prouser
It's the only park to be built under the direction of Walt Disney himself and there are plenty of reasons to take the kids to Disneyland Park in Anaheim, California.
But first, parents need to work out how much a holiday to "the happiest place on earth" will cost.
Tom Walley, head of leisure travel at Flight Centre says while the Australian dollar has fallen, airfares to the United States have been "extremely competitive".
"We have seen flights for as low as $860 return to Los Angeles, however it is unlikely you will find such low prices during peak seasons like school holidays and over Christmas when airlines know more people will be flying and therefore, don't have the incentive to reduce the prices," said Walley.
The most popular time for families to travel from Australia to Disneyland is during September school holidays, with many booking in February.
He suggests booking in advance to secure the best pricing. "The later you leave it to book, the more you are likely to pay, so we always encourage customers to plan ahead and lock in their holiday as soon as they can."
At the time of publishing, Air New Zealand has flights for September from Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane to Los Angeles on sale from $1729 per adult and $1325 per child (ages 2 - 11). The sale ends February 26 .
Outside of sale fairs, Walley says, "expect to pay on average around $2000 per adult and around $1500 per child for September airfares booked outside of sale periods."
"If your family's schedule allows, I recommend avoiding school holidays and booking in a non-peak season for access to lower priced flights."
Once you have secured your flights, accommodation is the next major expense to take into account.
There are three official Disneyland Park hotels that are within walking distance of the park: Disney's Grand Californian Hotel and Spa (rooms starting at USD$379 per night), Disneyland Hotel (rooms starting at USD$329 per night) and Disneyland Paradise Pier Hotel, which Walley says is by far their best seller. Disneyland guests also get the added bonus of entering the park an hour before it opens through a private entrance.
However if you want to keep the budget down, Walley says staying at a hotel outside of the official Disney complex is also an option.
"Hyatt Regency Orange County is a good value, family-friendly option that caters well to Disneyland-bound guests with a shuttle service that operates daily," says Walley.
A five night stay is currently on sale through Flight Centre from $1145* per adult and from $495* per child which includes a free night, a four-day Park Hopper ticket for entry to Disneyland and California Adventure Park, one Magic Morning admission for early entry into a designated theme park and return airport transfers.
For a two day pass to Disneyland Park you are looking at $92.50 for adults and children over 10 years old per day. And, $86 per day for children aged between three and nine years.
The ticket prices vary depending on how many days you plan to visit the park.
For more information: visit the Disneyland Park website.
How many days should you plan at Disneyland
"There are two theme parks within the Disney complex - Disneyland and California Adventure Park - and both require at least a day each," says Walley.
"That being said, I think two days at each would be best as this allows for a slightly slower pace and the ability to take breaks instead of trying to cram everything in."
Just make sure you plan your park experience before you go and take advantage of the fast pass services.
*Valid for sale until 31 March 2016. For travel 1 August - 29 October 2016.

We are all faced with trials that require decisions to be made. How we come to these decisions however, is the thin line between success and failure.
When we make bad choices, typically we are overwhelmed by emotions such as worry, hopelessness, stress and fear. These end up being the driving force of the decision-making process, when really they shouldn't.
Your inflated ego and self-image blocks you from taking any encouraging input on board to make the right choice.
You cling to the fear of failure, which outweighs the greater reward.
You focus on the negative outcomes rather than the positive.
Your obsession for being in control often affects your choices.
Your hidden intention to fail overpowers your decision process; you shy away from taking on the extra responsibility.
You act on impulse, not taking enough time to weigh up all options.
To make changes in your life you need to understand how your thoughts are limiting you and causing you problems. When you are truly self-aware, you will be able to tell how you are feeling, what assumptions you are making, what expectations you have and how the things you are doing are affecting your core beliefs. Knowing all of this takes a great deal of honesty.
The more honest you are with yourself, the greater ability you have to make choices with clarity.
When you encounter a problem, pause for a moment and try to envisage the solution. Most of us never jump the first hurdle, we think about the negative – the enormity of the task, the difficulty, what else is involved etc. We then make decisions out of anxiety, fear and frustration. So try to expand your perspective and focus on the solution to get past the inevitable obstacles.
There are positives and negatives in most situations. Think of a negative scenario that you've encountered in the past, were there any positives that came out of that situation? Also, have any negatives issues arisen after a positive choice? This makes us more aware of how our decisions affect us, and will give us a great base for decision-making in the future.
If you feel like you are constantly making bad decisions, a life coach may be able to help you get back on track. To find a life coach in your area, please use our advanced search tool.

Parallèlement, il est aussi la tête d'affiche masculine de comédies romantiques décalées : Peace, Love et plus si affinités (2012), 40 ans : Mode d'emploi (2012) ou encore Admission (2013).

Biographie

Jeunesse et formation
Paul Stephen Rudd est né à Passaic dans le New Jersey dans une famille de confession juive. Son père, Michael Rudd, était guide touristique et ancien vice-président de Trans World Airlines. Il est décédé des suites d'un cancer en 2008. Sa mère, Gloria Irene (Granville), est la directrice commerciale de la chaîne télévisée américaine KCMO-TV dans la ville de Kansas City dans le Missouri. Ses parents sont nés en Angleterre. Son père vient de Edgware et sa mère de Surbiton, près de Londres. Ses deux parents descendent de familles juives venant de Russie, de Pologne et de Biélorussie. Le nom original du père de Rudd était « Rudnitsky », mais son grand-père l'a changé pour « Rudd ». Le nom de jeune fille de sa mère était « Goldstein ».

Il sort diplômé de l'université du Kansas, où sa matière principale était le théâtre, avant d'étudier au sein de l' à Los Angeles. Il est membre de la fraternité Sigma Nu et travaille durant ses études comme disc-jockey durant des Bar Mitzvah. Après l'obtention de son diplôme, il occupe divers emplois, dont celui de vitrier au sein de l'entreprise Holiday Ham à Overland Park, au Kansas.

Débuts d'acteur
Après avoir beaucoup joué sur scène, il se révèle au grand public en 1993 avec la série Les Sœurs Reed, où il tient un rôle récurrent. Deux ans plus tard, il commence sa carrière cinématographique avec Halloween 6 : La Malédiction de Michael Myers et Clueless, suivi en 1996 de Roméo + Juliette.

Ce n'est qu'en 1998 qu'il obtient son premier grand rôle dans la comédie sentimentale L'Objet de mon affection, au côté de Jennifer Aniston ; il y incarne un instituteur homosexuel qui se lie d'amitié avec le personnage joué par la comédienne.

En 2001, il collabore pour la première fois avec deux réalisateurs qui l'accompagnent par la suite : tout d'abord David Wain, pour une comédie à très petit budget devenue depuis culte aux États-Unis, Wet Hot American Summer, et réunissant de futures stars hollywoodiennes (Bradley Cooper, Amy Poehler et Elizabeth Banks), puis avec Jesse Peretz pour .

En 2003, il joue avec Rachel Weisz dans le drame sentimental Fausses Apparences, une adaptation de la pièce , écrite et mise en scène par l'auteur lui-même, Neil LaBute.

Il confirme néanmoins son interprétation pour la comédie, en participant aux deux dernières saisons (2002-2004) de la série Friends, où il interprète le personnage de Mike Hannigan, le petit ami puis mari de Phoebe (Lisa Kudrow).

Seconds rôles comiques au cinéma

Au terme de la série, il se fait remarquer via des seconds rôles dans des comédies populaires produites par Judd Apatow : le premier grand succès critique et commercial de Will Ferrell en 2004, Présentateur vedette : La Légende de Ron Burgundy, puis en 2005 celui de Steve Carell avec 40 ans, toujours puceau.

Il n'abandonne pas pour autant le cinéma indépendant américain, puisqu'il tient en 2006 les premiers rôles masculins de Diggers et The Oh in Ohio. La même année, il a un petit rôle dans la comédie fantastique La Nuit au musée, énorme succès commercial.

En 2007, il est à l'affiche de près de six films : il tourne dans la comédie romantique indépendante Trop jeune pour elle, joue et co-produit la comédie The Ten, écrite et réalisée par David Wain et Ken Marino. Il fait aussi des apparitions dans les comédies Son ex et moi, Alerte à Miami : Reno 911 ! et une production d'Apatow : Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story.

Premiers rôles de comédies populaires

En 2008, il incarne le premier rôle de la comédie romantique Le Fantôme de mon ex-fiancée, aux côtés d'Eva Longoria. Le film est un flop critique et commercial. Il tient ensuite un second rôle dans le deuxième long-métrage de Judd Apatow : En cloque, mode d'emploi, très grand succès critique et commercial aux États-Unis, et partage aussi l'affiche d'un autre succès critique, Les Grands Frères une comédie avec Seann William Scott réalisée par David Wain, et au box-office américain.

En 2009, Paul Rudd confirme ce statut de tête d'affiche avec I Love You, Man au côté d'un autre acteur engagé par Judd Apatow, Jason Segel. Le film est salué par la critique et très bien reçu par le public nord-américain.

En 2010, il joue dans l'adaptation hollywoodienne de la comédie française Le Dîner de cons, dont il partage l'affiche avec la star Steve Carell, qui est très moyennement reçue par la critique. Puis il tourne dans Comment savoir, comédie romantique signée du vétéran James L. Brooks, à laquelle il participe, aux côtés de Reese Witherspoon et Owen Wilson ; c'est un sévère échec critique et commercial.

Comédies indépendantes et reconnaissance critique

En 2011, il tient le premier rôle de la comédie dramatique indépendante Our Idiot Brother de Jesse Peretz, entouré de Zooey Deschanel, Elizabeth Banks et Emily Mortimer. Son interprétation est largement saluée par la critique.

En 2012, il incarne le rôle masculin principal dans la comédie romantique avec Jennifer Aniston et réalisée par David Wain, Peace, Love et plus si affinités, puis joue dans la quatrième réalisation de Judd Apatow, intitulée 40 ans : Mode d'emploi, avec Leslie Mann. Il reprend là son rôle secondaire de En cloque, mode d'emploi, devenu personnage principal à l'occasion de cette réflexion sur la vie de couple. Les deux films sont des déceptions au box-office et les critiques américaines très mitigées, malgré des retours positifs concernant les acteurs. Il joue aussi un second rôle dans la comédie dramatique indépendante Le Monde de Charlie. L'intégralité de la distribution du film est récompensée par un San Diego Film Critics Society Award pour leur performance.

En 2013, il partage l'affiche avec Tina Fey, pour la comédie dramatique Admission. Les critiques sont très mitigées, même si l'interprétation principale est une fois encore saluée.

Diversification et blockbusters (depuis 2013)

Il fait une incursion dans le registre dramatique en tenant le rôle principal de Prince of Texas, film indépendant de David Gordon Green, acclamé par la critique, mais reste un échec commercial. Puis, il mène , autre comédie dramatique indépendante, avec Paul Giamatti, aux retours cette fois mitigés. Enfin, il reprend son rôle de Brian Fontana pour la suite d'Anchorman, de nouveau un succès critique et commercial sur le territoire nord-américain.

En 2014, il partage l'affiche avec Amy Poehler (actrice à qui il donne déjà occasionnellement la réplique dans la sitcom Parks and Recreation) d'une comédie romantique parodique : They Came Together réalisée par David Wain. Le film est bien reçu par la critique, mais ne rencontre pas son public.

En 2015, il tient pour la première fois le rôle principal d'un blockbuster hollywoodien dans Ant-Man, douzième film de l'univers cinématographique Marvel réalisé par Peyton Reed. Un personnage qu'il reprend pour le film Captain America: Civil War, en , dans la suite d''Ant-Man, Ant-Man et la Guêpe, sortie durant l'été 2018, et dans Avengers: Endgame, sorti au printemps 2019. Il est également co-scénariste sur les deux films Ant-Man.

Toujours en 2015, il retrouve ses anciens partenaires du film Wet Hot American Summer à l'occasion d'une suite sous forme de mini-série télévisée à destination de la plateforme de vidéo à la demande de Netflix, intitulée Wet Hot American Summer: First Day of Camp.

En 2016, il revient également au registre dramatique en menant le film indépendant The Fundamentals of Caring, écrit et réalisé par Rob Burnett.

En 2018, il est la tête d'affiche du drame historique indépendant The Catcher Was a Spy de Ben Lewin, mais aussi aux côtés d'Alexander Skarsgård et Justin Theroux, à la tête du thriller de science-fiction Mute, de Duncan Jones.

Vie privée

Paul Rudd est marié depuis 2003 à Julie Yaeger. Le couple a deux enfants : un fils prénommé Jack Sullivan (2006) et une fille prénommée Darby (2010). Paul et sa famille sont de confession juive. Il expliquait en 2012 :

The 2018 Oscars Stage Will Dazzle with 45 Million Swarovski Crystals
Get a sneak peek at designer Derek McLane's sets for the 90th Academy Awards
Stefanie Waldek

Scenic designer Derek McLane might not have an Oscar himself (yet), but he's no stranger to the Academy Awards. For the sixth year in a row, the Tony- and Emmy-winning designer has been called upon by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences to design the stage for Hollywood's biggest celebration. This year's ceremony is particularly notable—it's the 90th anniversary—so McLane has created dozens of brand-new elements to delight the audience.
Rather than focusing on a historic design movement, like he did for last year's Art Deco–themed stage, McLane went for a more abstract look this year. "It's more about reflectivity and light, than it is about a particular period," he notes. And while there are certain designs that reflect the past, there's also a sense of the future: "I think that what I've done feels pretty modern and forward-looking." Here, we're bringing you a first look at McLane's 2018 Oscars stage.
Watch the 2018 Academy Awards on Sunday, March 4, at 8:00 p.m. ET on ABC.
The proscenium, which is the arch surrounding the stage in front of the curtain, is a brand-new design this year—and perhaps McLane's favorite element of the show. "It feels a little bit like a geode, or a kind of sculpture made out of crushed glass," he says. When producers Mike De Luca and Jennifer Todd asked the designer to do the show again this year, the proscenium was the first design he conceived. The end result is this dazzling faceted piece decorated with a staggering 45 million Swarovski crystals. (For comparison, last year's proscenium only had 27,120 crystals.) He then expanded upon the crystalline structure for the other pieces on the stage you see here, flattening them into more abstracted, two-dimensional forms that have a bit of an Art Deco flair to them.
For this set, McLane nods to Hollywood's glamorous history. "These mirrored arches have a little bit of a Hollywood regency flavor, and the capitals have an almost Egyptian Deco flavor to them." Crystal chandeliers hang from them in grand style, and the elements are repeated on the giant LED screen behind the stage. With digital projections, McLane notes, "you can kind of trick the eye into seeing something that you can't just build on the stage." He worked on these digital elements with screens producer Raj Kapoor, who riffed on McLane's sketches to create a cohesive look. "You wouldn't be able to do a set just virtually because the cameras are constantly moving. The TV audience can sense the three-dimensionality of objects," observes McLane. "Hopefully, if we do our job well, you won't really be able to tell the difference between virtual and built!"
"This is inspired by the movie Amadeus," McLane shares. "It doesn't look exactly like Amadeus, but that's where the idea started." With a Versailles Hall of Mirrors–esque aesthetic, these six mirrored panels are able to spin across the stage. On the reverse side of the mirrors are LED screens that will show images of nominees.
"These rings of light are clearly much more modern," says McLane. Protruding from the rings are spoke-like aluminum rods with incandescent light bulbs. Close-up shots of the rings will give the audience a chance to see the details of the bulbs, but in wide shots, they'll look more like hovering points of light. "This is something I've played with a bunch of times before at the Oscars," says McLane—as an Academy Awards veteran, the designer certainly knows what works on the stage. Like the mirrored panels, these rings are able to move into different configurations, creating a certain dynamism.

Samuel L. Jackson: Democrats Who Want To Bans Gun Are Traitors
February 19, 2018 Baxter Dmitry News, US 1
Democrat politicians who are agitating for changes to the constitution in order to ban guns must be viewed as "tyrants in waiting" according to Samuel L. Jackson, who says "America doesn't have a gun problem, we have a people problem."
In a week when senior Democrats including Barack Obama made pleas for new rules to limit gun ownership in the wake of the Florida school shooting, Jackson spoke up to defend US citizens' right to bear arms.
The 69-year-old said carrying a weapon was a "natural" way for Americans to defend themselves and their property against "the evil forces in society that won't magically go away just because you ban guns."
Samuel L. Jackson recalled how he grew up surrounded by "plenty of guns" in rural Tennessee, "and we never had any problems. We respected each other. We respected the guns.
"When I was in high school we had plenty of guns around. Boys were boys and we had fights. But nobody ever reached for a gun. Nobody ever shot up the school. What happened? Did the guns change, or did the people change?
"The problems we are facing in 2018 aren't down to guns. Don't give me that bullshit."
Asked why "many Americans, from coast to coast" think the country does have a gun problem, Samuel L. Jackson replied:
"I think you'll find it's not people from coast to coast. It's people on the coast. A lot of people who don't live in the real world are finding it easier to blame an inanimate object than address the real problems."
This isn't the first time Samuel L. Jackson has expressed his opposition to gun control.
Speaking to the Times, Jackson said he had continued exercising his constitutional right to carry a gun after becoming a famous actor. "I am not an unarmed citizen now," he said.
Jackson, the star of Tarantino films including Pulp Fiction and Django Unchained, added that he would use his gun against anyone trying to break into his home. He said he would tell any intruder: "Get the fuck out of my house. I have a gun," adding that if the warning was ignored "a big tongue of fire will come out of the end of this weapon".
In the wake of the mass shooting at Sandy Hook in 2012, Jackson also told an interviewer: "I don't think it's about more gun control."

KKK Supporter Called Out for Wearing Dreadlocks
News July 12, 2017 by Sheryl Estrada


Voyeurism is a term we use loosely here, more referring to human curiosity than anything perverse in nature. But it seems to be the best way to describe the work of Dutch documentary photographer Reinier Gerritsen in his series The Last Book. Over the course of three years, Gerritsen trolled the New York City subway system, observing and documenting the printed matter commuters were reading. With the decline of physical books in favor of digital media, his original intention was to chronicle the waning days of traditional publishing: "Conceived as an elegy to the end of bound books, in a positive twist it has now become evident that people are moving away from electronic reading devices and that the printed book is alive and well!" With the rigor of a sociological experiment, Gerritsen catalogued hundreds of photos on his website by author's last name. "It began as a series of modest observations and transformed into a collection of vivid documentary portraits, set against a visual landscape of best sellers, classics, romance novels, detective thrillers and every kind of printed book, as diverse as the readers." Gerritsen took note of patterns, observing that Suzanne Collins, James Patterson and J.K. Rowling were among the most popular authors of choice. This project was eventually published into a beautiful bound book itself (available here), and Gerritsen even headed back underground to photograph commuters with their e-readers for his own digital publication, an app called The Last Book Revisited (available here).

I was expecting this movie to be good. I liked the first one a lot (with only a few qualifications) and I liked the character even more in The Avengers. So, yes, I pretty much expected The Dark World to be good. And even then, I was impressed.
Because this is one of those movies that's the ideal in the tentpole-blockbuster-extravaganza films because it's a character movie first and all of those other things second.
The relationship with Thor and Jane Foster is better than the first movie. Even though I still don't think they have much chemistry we got to see them work together and fight for each other and that all worked well enough. Though, there isn't a lot of depth to their relationship or substance. But I think at this point the characters are solid enough on their own that I don't quibble about the relationship, even though it's really not great.
Loki is still the most interesting character because he shows the widest range of emotion and different dimensions of himself.
seriously, spoilers »
I loved seeing him in his grief, when he drops the illusion for Thor and he's so torn up. That was a great moment.
I think the problem is that Thor is such a self-contained character, as appealing and noble as he is, you don't get to see in him the nuances that Loki gets to play. He gets to be very funny in this movie, but not really intentionally so.
And there is a whole lot of funny in this movie which is delightful and sets off the dark tone of the battles very nicely.
That being said, it isn't as if the other characters have nothing to do. Thor is most interesting when he's with Loki. Their dynamic is just such a precarious balance of love and animosity and as it waivers back and forth it's engaging. And
again, spoilers but about the same thing »
I was pretty surprised by Frigga's death. It worked well for the story in forcing all the other characters to deal with it. And she got to go out in such a strong, noble way but it was still sad and kind of shocking. Which, I guess is what it was supposed to be. But I feel like, even with the funeral, no one really got to visibly deal with it the way Loki did. Maybe because Odin is the king and Thor is, well Thor, they only show power and anger and that doesn't leave room for a distraught sort of grief. But looking back, giving them even just a moment would have given the characters more depth and dimension which would have served them well.
I really enjoyed the roles the women got to play in the story. Frigga has a great fight scene and is a very commanding queen. Jane is more interesting as she plays a central role in this story and she's considerably less annoying than last time around. It's interesting to see what Jane bears in this story and to have Thor recognize it. And for both Odin and Thor to acknowledge the influence the women they love have on them (mostly, sorta, whatever you'll get it when you see it). Sif and Darcy are also fun and have their moments. It's always good to see strong women that are central to the story in a big adventure like this because that's so often not the case.
These movies are all about powerful men, tailor made for young men, crafted from the substance of their fantasies. And it's really cool that strong women are such an important part of them.
The story, overall, works and the first tag at the end hints at how it will tie in with Guardians of the Galaxy (and the Super Hero Squad Show my nephews would be quick to point out). Which is good. But it's not a movie that relies on the story or the plot logic, the focus really is the characters (and the fights) and the story is just used to move them and change them (and make them fight) which it what makes is such a very good movie.
Plus, you know, it's Thor and he's my favorite.
See how Thor: The Dark World ranks with the other Marvel movies.

Based On Open Source Technologies
========================

`Link to the article Based On Open Source Technologies <http://documents.firejack.net/s/FJK_Documentation/m/17047/l/172388-based-on-open-source-technologies/>`_


Probably the most common reason we Overgive to our kids. Why? Because parental guilt is present in epic proportions. We feel guilty that we are single parents. We feel guilty that we work. We feel guilty about everything! So we make ourselves feel better by giving everything to our kids. This method is not about what is truly best for the children. It is about us.
When parents feel the need to show through material possessions that we love our kids more because we give them the latest and greatest of everything. This is competitive parenting. It's not keeping up with the Joneses anymore, it is surpassing the Joneses because it allows parents to feel superior to the Joneses and everyone else. Again, not best for the children, but fuels our desire to feel good about ourselves.
This spoiling is rooted in the desire of the parent to be loved by the child and the misguided idea that if we give them everything or permit them to do everything and anything they want, our children will love us more and want us as their best friend. This needy type of parenting really shows it's ugly head as our children get older. These are the parents start out by buying the kegs for high school parties and often end up hitting the bars in later years with their only BFF's -their own kids. Your kids don't want you for a friend, they want you to be their parent!
These three reasons seem to alone or in combination with one another motivate us to Overgive to our children and put ourselves at the bottom of the list. These types of parenting don't deliver the results we are looking for. Instead of resulting in children who worship us for our generosity and recognize the sacrifices we have made on their behalf, we end up having children who don't respect us or appreciate our efforts.
So here is my plea. Stop handing everything to your kids and placing yourself at the bottom of the list. Take care of yourself. Realize that your kids won't respect you if you don't respect yourself. Remember your kids want you to act as a parent. They can make their own friends. They only have two or possibly one parent. Don't shirk your responsibility to be their parent-a loving authority in their lives. And develop a life for yourself that gives you and your children something to be proud of.

Access a group from Additio App, click on the 3 vertical dots menu and select the "Share group structure" option.
In order to share the structure, it is necessary for you to enter a name and the description of the structure you share. This name is the one that teachers who import the structure will see. Once you have entered the name, you will see that the option "Share structure with my colleagues" is set by default, so that all your school colleagues can use it. At this point you can select which tabs or columns you wish to import, or if you wish to import everything.
Once you click on "Save" the structure will be shared and a code will be generated in case you want to send it to a particular teacher.
Access again the 3 vertical dots menu in the group where you wish to import the structure to and select the "Import structure" option.
At this point you can choose whether you wish to import a shared structure to all the school (and therefore it will appear in the list of shared structures) or if you wish to import it with a code.
Once the structure has been selected from the list, a message will pop up asking you if you are sure of the importation. You have to click "OK" to confirm.
