Today I bring you a tour blog stop that I am super excited about! I haven't been reading as much as I'd like to (all this writing is really putting a damper on that), but I did have the chance to read Ash Princess by Laura Sebastian and it was so so good.
I didn't have many expectations going in. Which is how I like it. I don't like having preconceived notions about a book, and I'm so glad this came to me that way, because it made a name for it all on its own.
I love when books surprise me. To be honestly, the beginning chapter didn't pull me in. I had to make past it. But once I started to get to know Theo and what she's been going through and who she's become, it all just took off from there.
A times, it's a difficult book to read because it deals with a lot of heavy subjects. Being in captivity for so long, paraded around as a trophy for a victory and constantly abused is not a pleasant thing to read. But I enjoyed getting to know Theo and how she dealt with many of the unfortunate circumstances that seem to surround her. Even when she was beaten down, she comes back up again. Figuratively and realistically. My heart broke for her but it also cheered, when she did just lay down and continue to take the hardships. She could've. This could've been a whole different story.
I have my opinions on the other characters, and all I'll say here is that they're probably not going to be the popular ones. But I'm used to that, so I'll deal.
I think Laura crafted a very interesting beginning to a series that I look forward to continuing on with (which will be a while since the book doesn't even come out till April 24th.). I flew through the book and cannot wait to pick up the next one!

Q: Problems with writing/reading int arrays in a file (c) I'm trying to read data from a file, a bunch of ints, two 2d arrays and two 1d arrays, the ints read just fine, but the arrays seem to read the wrong data, I'm not sure where the problem is: the writing, the reading or memory allocation.

Foxtrot's specialty is pinot noir, and only pinot noir. The winery, currently under development, is owned by Torsten Allander, a retired engineer, with his wife, Elisabeth, son, Gustav and daughter, Anne-Marie. This Naramata Bench vineyard was planted to pinot noir in the mid-1990s.
The Allanders, who had been living in West Vancouver, bought the property as a country retreat. After selling grapes for several years, Torsten created his own label, setting up a three-vintage winemaking trial at a nearby winery, starting in 2004, to assess the quality of Foxtrot-grown pinot noir. The 2004 and 2005 vintages, released at $50 a bottle, was received with such enthusiasm by restaurateurs and critics that the Allanders equipped their own cellar to make and age their wines.
The winery's first chardonnay was released from the 2008 vintage and also won critical acclaim.


ABOUT THREE months ago, the State Government sanctioned Rs 9 crore for repair of broken or breaking down portions of the Sanjay Gandhi Post Graduate Institute of Medical Sciences (SGPGIMS). The institute?s administration, instead of using the funds for what they were meant, pumped it into ?unwarranted? renovation. Further, the SGPGIMS administration also misinformed the State Government about it when eyebrows were raised.
ABOUT THREE months ago, the State Government sanctioned Rs 9 crore for repair of broken or breaking down portions of the Sanjay Gandhi Post Graduate Institute of Medical Sciences (SGPGIMS).
The institute's administration, instead of using the funds for what they were meant, pumped it into "unwarranted" renovation. Further, the SGPGIMS administration also misinformed the State Government about it when eyebrows were raised.
Tiles are replacing the concrete and mosaic of all hospital corridors. Besides, aluminum windows are replacing the iron window-panels. "This is absurd wastage of such a lot of money. The original wall surfaces and windows are almost flawless with no sign of any wear and tear, cracks etc. A good wash with detergent was all they needed. That's all.
They were so tough that labourers have to work very hard to dismantle the original surfaces. An entire floor reverberates when the labourers are trying to dismantle them. Further, everyone knows that tiles cannot match the strength of mosaic," says a member of the faculty forum of SGPGIMS.
"This is all ornamental work. And has 'interests' other than patients', doctors' or visitors' interests," said another doctor hinting at corruption going on in the institute in construction and repair activities.
About two-and-a-half months ago the renovation work began. And immediately, various sections of staff—faculty, doctors, nurses or other staff members—individually and in groups, raised eyebrows at the work.
So much so that the issue had reached the Governing Body meeting that took place two months ago. When questioned, the then director of the institute reported to the GB meeting headed by the Chief Secretary, that the work would be stalled.
A few faculty members, even videographed (with date and time tag) the 'work in progress', post the GB meeting.
Now work is in full swing. Approximately one-fourth of the total work on the ground floor is over. And it is in progress on other floors too. An engineer at the Engineering Department of SGPGIMS said that the corridors of all seven floors would get an identical look. "What is the benefit of replacing mosaic with tiles? It is neither in the interest of the patients or doctors. Meanwhile, the Patients' Residential Accommodation (PRA), the paid residences for patients relatives and doctors' residences need repairs. Despite the massive expenditure, it has no potential to bring comfort to patients, doctors or in any area by which the institute may generate revenue," said a senior officer of the SGPGIMS administration. These tiles and windows are not even strong. It is only a matter of time that they will start chipping, cracking and falling off.

Solution: Safe Harbor Educational Trust For Minor Children. The parties agree to jointly hire a Miami Trust attorney to prepare a Safe Harbor Trust with the following purposes: (1) Ensure that all support funds go the children; and (2) the children secure a first rate high school and university education. These goals are achieved by having the funds under the management of a third party trustee – who can be an attorney, CPA, trust company, or other trusted person. The trustee can be directed, pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, to purchase a 529 plan or F Florida Prepaid College Plan for the children's educational needs and the balance of the funds would be set aside to meet the Husband's support obligations and the private high school. Of course, the Trust can incorporate all other unique requirements of the Settlement Agreement. Each quarter (or more often) the Trustee provides an informal accounting of Trust payments so both parents are kept fully informed of all trust expenses, income, and distributions.
#2: Love Child But No Marriage. In this situation Mark Anthony (not the actor) has a two year old daughter from a prior relationship. The child's mother is obsessively harassing Mark, demanding child support of over $1 million by posting pictures and demands on Facebook, texts, and Instagram. Mark is willing to make the payment, but wants to end all further communications with the mother. He is not interested in maintaining a relationship with his daughter because he believes mother will continue to troll him on social media.
Solution: As required by the Support Agreement, Mark establishes an Irrevocable Minor's Trust with the purpose of providing for the daughter's support needs until she is 25 or secures a degree from a fully accredited college or university, whichever occurs first. Mark funds the Trust with a onetime payment of $1 million. Thereafter, it is the Trustee's obligation to ensure that the funds are conservatively invested and used for the health, education, maintenance and support of the minor daughter. The Trustee provides an informal accounting to both the mother and Mark every 90 days.
#3: Protecting Homestead Contributed by Grandmother. Jose and Emily Perez live in a house owned by Jose's elderly mother. They have twin daughters, age 7. Jose's mother wants to devise the house to the twins upon her death. She wants Emily to continue to live in the house with her and the girls after the divorce as long as she does not remarry, but upon grandmother's death, she wants the house or the sale proceeds available for the twins living needs or education until they are at least 25.
Solution: Irrevocable Homestead Trust For Minor Children. Grandmother deeds the homestead to an irrevocable Trust but retains a beneficial interest for life so Grandmother can still claim the three big benefits of homestead: (1) protection against creditors; (2) $50,000 property tax credit; (3) 3% Save Our Homes cap. Of course, grandmother must continue to occupy the house. Upon grandmother's death, the trust can continue to qualify for homestead, upon application by one of the beneficiaries residing in home. If sold, the proceeds are distributed in the Trust accounts and under the fiduciary management of the Trustee, used for the educational or other needs of the children.
Irrevocable Divorce Trusts are often good "insurance policies" in a Marital Settlement Agreement to ensure marital funds go the children and are not misused by a free-spending spouse or young adult who is not a good money manager – such as the young teenage boy turning 18 who would prefer to buy the yellow Mustang rather than go to college.
These are just a few examples of how Irrevocable Divorce trusts can be used in Marital Settlement Agreements. If is often a good idea to brainstorm with an experienced Miami Trust attorney about ways a trust may be used to protect marital funds.

The Baby Matrix: Why Freeing Our Minds From Outmoded Thinking About Parenthood & Reproduction Will Create a Better World
In the movie The Matrix, the character Morpheus offers two pills to Neo—if he takes the blue pill, he will go on with life as he has before, believing what he has always believed. If he takes the red pill, he will find out what the "matrix" really is, and many of his earlier beliefs will be shattered. When it comes to taking a hard look at a specific set of beliefs about parenthood and reproduction that has driven our society for generations, The Baby Matrix is the red pill.
The Baby Matrix: Why Freeing Our Minds From Outmoded Thinking About Parenthood & Reproduction Will Create a Better World looks at long-held beliefs about parenthood and reproduction, and unravels why we believe what we believe. We commonly think our desire to have children boils down to our biological wiring, but author Laura Carroll says it's much more than that. Unlike other books on parenthood, The Baby Matrix takes a serious look at powerful social and cultural influences that drive the desire for the parenthood experience, and lays out why we need to be very aware of these influences to make the most informed decisions about parenthood. It examines:
-the historical origins of beliefs about parenthood and reproduction
-why many of these beliefs no longer work for society or were never true in the first place
-why we continue to believe them anyway
-the prices society pays as a result
The Baby Matrix shows us how we got here, brings to light what is true, which includes knowing about the powerful influence of "pronatalism," and explains why society can no longer afford to leave pronatalism unquestioned.
"This is not a book about convincing people not to have children," says Carroll. "I want people to be very aware of the long-held social and cultural pressures, and be able to free themselves from those pressures when making parenthood choices. This will result in more people making the best decisions for themselves, will foster a society in which those who are best suited to become parents are the ones who have children and one that knows what it means to bring a child into the world today."
This book will make you examine your own intentions and beliefs, will rile you, and might just change your mind. Whether you are already a parent, want to become a parent, are still making up your mind, or know you don't want children, you'll never think about parenthood in the same way.
The Baby Matrix is a must-read for anyone interested in psychology, sociology, anthropology, parenting issues, environmentalism, and social justice. But most of all, it's for anyone, parent or not, who reveres the truth and wants the best for themselves, their families, and our world.

Need Help Dealing with Asperger's / HFA?
Do social situations feel like a challenging game to you? Looking for guidance in navigating social interactions? Contact Rob to discuss how he might help you.
The diagnostic world of Asperger's Syndrome and Autism is one of constant change. Until recently, Asperger's Syndrome was recognized as a separate diagnosis, but recently was wrapped into the Autism Spectrum. "Aspies" or "neuroatypicals" and even professionals, continue to use the term to describe their situation however. While High Functioning Autism (HFA) and Asperger's have some overlap, they are viewed as separate.
People with HFA and Asperger's are often highly intelligent, but struggle to understand common social interactions or detect emotions expressed by other people. This can create unique challenges as they struggle to cope with functioning in a world filled with "neurotypicals".
Rob has over ten years of experience helping both adolescents and adults with Asperger's. Whether you (or your child) have already been diagnosed, or are seeking an initial evaluation, Rob will help you understand Autism/HFA/Asperger's Syndrome, and help you navigate the world of, and face the challenges of social interaction and relationships.

Questar's 414 Light St. high-rise in Baltimore has topped out. Standing at 500 feet, the 44-story tower is now Maryland's tallest residential building. The upscale project, which broke ground in March 2016 with Lendlease as provider of construction management services, has already started pre-leasing and is slated to welcome its first residents in the spring of 2018.
Located in the city's Inner Harbor area, the 394-unit luxury residential tower is within walking distance of most central points of interest, including Oriole Park, University of Maryland Medical Center, Baltimore Convention Center, downtown and the East Pratt Street corridor. The community will also offer quick access to Interstate 95 and the whole Baltimore-Washington corridor.
The tower will feature studio, one-bedroom, two-bedroom and penthouse units. According to Yardi Matrix data, floor plans range between 506 and 1,830 square feet and the building was designed for LEED Silver certification.
"Within walking distance to public transportation, retail shops, restaurants, entertainment, businesses and more, 414 Light St. is at the forefront of the urban renaissance taking place in Baltimore's Inner Harbor," said Stephen Gorn, chairman & CEO of Questar, in prepared remarks.
The project benefited from a $108.8 million construction loan originated in February 2016 and funded by Citizens Financial Group, Yardi Matrix data shows.

Nights at Seaside by Addison Cole is the sweet edition of New York Times bestselling author Melissa Foster's steamy romance novel Seaside Nights. The stories and characters remain the same and convey all of the passion you expect between two people in love, without any explicit scenes or harsh language.
In NIGHTS at SEASIDE...Sky Lacroux has finally realized her dream and opened her own tattoo shop in Provincetown, Massachusetts. She's happy as can be, preparing the shop for its grand opening and renting a cottage in the Seaside community while renovations to her new apartment are being completed. The only thing missing is the one thing she longs for, and has no control over—love.
"I CAN'T BELIEVE in a few short weeks the apartment and the tattoo shop will be completely renovated. Blue, you're amazing!" Sky Lacroux shoved her favorite poetry book into her patchwork purse and locked the front doors of her shop. She waited for a few people to pass before stepping back on the busy sidewalk to admire it. She still had to paint the exterior and the sign above the doors and wait for the interior renovations to be done, but as she took in the narrow building she now owned, pride swelled inside her chest.
Inky Skies was located on Commercial Street, the busiest street in the artsy community of Provincetown, Massachusetts. It was sandwiched between her friend Lizzie Barber's flower shop, P-town Petals, which was painted light blue with flowers and greenery climbing up the columns out front, and the bright purple game store, Puzzle Me This. Sky planned on painting Inky Skies bright yellow, and as Blue Ryder, one of her best friends, threw his arm around her and dragged her away from the shop, she felt like she was walking on a cloud. Now, if only the universe would magically step in and find her the perfect man to share her joy with.
Yeah, right. Like that was going to happen in a primarily gay and lesbian community, especially with the way she worked all the time. Not likely. Her brother Hunter fell into step on her other side. Definitely not likely with these two guarding me closer than Fort Knox.
"Are you still planning a big grand opening, even though the shop has been open since you bought it?" Blue asked. He'd been one of Sky's best friends since she'd moved back to the Cape from New York three summers ago, to run her father's hardware store while he went into rehab to deal with an alcohol addiction. Thankfully, her father had remained sober after rehab and was back to running his store, which had enabled Sky to move out and fulfill her dream of opening her own tattoo shop. Two months earlier she'd purchased the tattoo shop where she'd been working part-time, and Blue, a specialty builder, was renovating both the shop and the apartment above it for her.
Blue groaned, and Sky laughed and poked him in the side as they crossed at the corner on their way to meet their friends.
"I wouldn't miss it for the world. I'm proud of you, sis." Hunter put a hand on Sky's forearm as they came to a curb and a bike whipped past.
"Hunter, I know how to stop at a curb, thank you very much." She rolled her eyes at her protective older brother.
She was used to being watched over, considering her four older brothers—and her slightly overprotective friend, Blue—had been doing it for years, but at twenty-six, with a new business and a new apartment, she was ready to spread her wings.
"Hey, just keepin' you safe." Hunter kept his dark hair shaved close to his head, and with his dark eyes and bulky muscles, he had an edge to him, but the playful grin he flashed softened all of that edginess, revealing the bighearted brother Sky adored.
"Hey, sugar!" A friendly drag queen, who went by Marcus during the day and Maxine when he performed, waved from across the street. He'd lost his lover, Howie, to cancer a couple of years ago, and as much as Sky wished he'd fall in love again, she knew from the look in Marcus's eyes when he spoke of Howie that what they'd shared was a once-in-a-lifetime type of love.
Ever since four of her friends had gotten married last summer, she longed to experience that kind of love, too.

iRobot Roomba 675 Robot Vacuum Review
Last Updated on March 18, 2022 by Helen Legrand Leave a Comment
iRobot Roomba 675 Robot Vacuum
iRobot Roomba 675 Robot Vacuum is compatible with hardwood and all types of carpets. Intelligent sensors for fall prevention and dirt detection make it a trustable one.
iRobot Roomba 675 Robot Vacuum ReviewiRobot Roomba 675 is a smart robot for a smart home. It offers a fair degree of automation. You don't have to keep a check on it or input it constantly since it automatically docks and recharges itself once the battery runs low. It does a pretty good job with carpets and pet hair, especially when combined with its small price.
The Wi-Fi connectivity and home app options make it a smart robot that can be tracked and controlled from anywhere. Battery run time is fantastic, and the build quality is entirely reliable. Have a look at this comprehensive breakdown of its features and performance to make an informed decision.
An User Manual
A Charging Station
One North American line Cord
iRobot Roomba 675 is 13 inches in diameter and 3.7 inches high. You can see that it is taller and wider than most other models, but it can still access standard spaces under the furniture quite well. Roomba 675 by iRobot is a standard-looking robot vacuum cleaner. It's round with a shiny plastic top. The center features a concentric arrangement of three-button: spot, clean, and dock. The sides of the robot vacuum are matte plastic. And the front features a carrying handle, which makes it quite practical to carry. When you flip the Roomba robotic vacuum, you find two rubberized wheels and a brush roll system.
You can also see an edge-sweeping brush on one side and various sensors for height and obstacle avoidance. The dustbin resides at the rear end. The charging dock is minimalist. It does not take much space, which is great for homes with pets. The cord, however, will be seen unwrapped since the dock does not feature a wrap for that.
Setting up the Roomba 675 is quite easy. Choose a perfect spot for your charging dock. iRobot suggests that the perfect spot should be 4 feet across from any other object. Plug the base into an electric supply and place your dot on its charging spot. iRobot suggests waiting for three hours before your first clean-up.
Features and Performance
Below is the list and detail of the most prominent features of the Roomba 675 robot vacuum:
Auto-adjust Cleaning Head
The Roomba 675 by iRobot is taller than other models out there. But it features an auto-adjust feature that adjusts the height of the vacuum when it encounters an obstruction. It also adjusts its suction power when the floor type changes. That way, it can access spaces such as under the couch.
iRobot suggests you empty the bin after each clean session. For that, you need to press the release button, and the bin slides out. Take out the filter and dust it off too. The filter also needs replacement every two months. The user manual has all the cleaning instructions in detail for the owner. The maintenance responsibilities and costs may vary with the workload for the robot vacuum. You can relax if it's just the floor cleaning with the regular dust and debris. But with pet hair and areas that have pollen in the air, maintaining your iRobot is important for its long life and efficiency.
Dual Multi-Surface Cleaning Brushes
A pair of side brushes on the underside of the iRobot Roomba ensure efficient cleaning. The brushes untangle and pick up the dirt, debris, and pet hair. These then push it up close to the suction, and the debris is thrown into the dust bin. Although the brushes are multi-surface, this robot vacuum works best on carpets. The brushes do the same on hardwood and tile floors too, but it tends to overlook pet hair and dirt on these floors. The edge-sweeping brush is also there to ensure that the edges along the walls are free from debris too.
iRobot Roomba 675 Robot Vacuum features dirt detect technology, making it a self-sufficient, low-input robot vacuum. It automatically senses areas of dirt and debris where suction power needs to be increased. You do not have to bother about manually taking care of that.
This app-controlled robot vacuum has an intelligent sensor that enables it to navigate obstacles such as furniture. Cliff detecting sensors can sense height and prevent the robot vacuum from falling down the stairs. It can also sense and adjust to different types of flooring, such as carpets and hardwood floors.
3-Stage Cleaning System
iRobot Roomba 675 uses a three-stage cleaning process where it loosens, picks up, and then sucks the debris. The side brushes also serve to untangle the pet hair before suction. The home app can also detect, adjust, and recommend according to the pollen season or increased shedding of the pet hair. Since this Roomba features Wi-Fi connectivity, you can schedule your floor cleaning from anywhere. So, when you return, you only find the floors cleaned and dusted. Create a virtual wall barrier so that it does not enter the restricted places of your house.
iRobot Roomba 675 takes almost 2 hours for a recharge when fully drained. When you turn on the clean mode, it can operate for 2 hours before returning to its charging dock. The recharge and operation time is not extraordinary, but the job it does in these 2 hours is quite reliable.
The Roomba 675 by iRobot does not come with remote control. But it is an app-controlled robot vacuum. Download and set up your iRobot Home app. Setting up the home app is super easy, and the application guides through each step. You can track cleaning schedules, battery status, and the location of the robot vacuum. The app control is quite intuitive. In case of any error or recommendation, the app notifications are quite self-explanatory. This app-controlled robot vacuum is self-rechargeable, but you can start, pause, resume or dock it from the phone app too. In addition to the self-recharging, app control, and pre-scheduling options, Roomba 675 also works with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant. It responds to the voice commands quite impressively. Connecting your voice control accounts with the iRobot 675 is straightforward too.
Home App and Voice Controls
Easy Setup and Operation
6L Dustbin Capacity
Senses and Adjusts according to the Floor type
Edge Cleaning brush provides Edge Cleaning Precision
Automatic Docking and Recharge
Lacks Mapping Features
It makes a Quiet Room Noisy
The Bottom Line: iRobot Roomba 675 Review
iRobot has produced many upgrades over the Roomba 675 robot vacuum, but this one retains its charm. And that's because it offers all the basic automation features along with a dependable performance at an agreeable price tag. Sensitive sensors for protection and auto adjustment make it hard to overlook. We recommend iRobot Roomba 675 Vacuum to those who want a basic cleaning function in an average-sized apartment or living space. If this is the first time you are buying a robot vacuum, this one is a good investment. If you would like to get reviews of other popular vacuum cleaners, kindly visit our reviews page.

Lo Stadio Rino Mercante è uno stadio sito nella città di Bassano del Grappa, in provincia di Vicenza. Dal punto di vista calcistico, ospita le gare interne del Football Club Bassano 1903. Essendo provvisto di un velodromo, ospita altresì eventi di ciclismo su pista.

Storia
Il campo fu voluto e pagato nel 1922 dal ricco mecenate bassanese Rino Mercante, il quale donò alla città un campo di calcio quando la squadra di calcio non era ancora nata.

Per l'utilizzo polisportivo del nuovo impianto ad uso delle società sportive già esistenti, il campo fu fornito di una pista di atletica ad anello conforme alle dimensioni richieste dalla F.I.S.A. e di un campo di calcio al suo interno omologato per i campionati nazionali.

All'esterno della pista il Veloce Club Bassano, trovati i finanziatori, organizzò delle gare ciclistiche dotando dell'impianto di una pista in terra battuta nel 1924.

Con l'arrivo di un podestà fascista il campo fu riammodernato e ribattezzato "Campo Sportivo del Littorio" nel 1928, in modo da ben poter figurare nel campionato di Seconda Divisione appena raggiunto.

Il velodromo, inaugurato negli nell'ottobre 1922 e successivamente rinnovato, ha ospitato in varie occasioni i campionati italiani di ciclismo su pista, nonché i campionati mondiali nel 1985, l'arrivo del Giro del Veneto tra gli anni 1970 e 1980 e arrivi di tappa del Giro d'Italia nel 1946, 1949, 1968, 1970 e 1974.

Dopo il 1945 lo stadio riprese il nome originario.

Struttura
Gli spalti possono accogliere fino a  spettatori, suddivisi in due settori:

Tribuna sud, costruita nel 1985 in occasione dei mondiali di ciclismo su pista, è parzialmente coperta ed ospita  posti a sedere.
Distinti, di costruzione antecedente rispetto alla tribuna, sono totalmente coperti ed ospitano  posti a sedere.

L'impianto non dispone di tribune sui lati corti del campo.

Il campo da calcio è in erba naturale e misura 105 metri per 65; la pista del velodromo è lunga 400 metri ed è pavimentata in resina e cemento. L'illuminazione notturna è garantita da quattro torri faro posizionate agli angoli del campo.

Il velodromo è stato realizzato interamente in calcestruzzo nel 1972. Ne esistono solo due esemplari in Italia (Bassano e Pordenone).

Incontri internazionali
Le squadre nazionali italiane di calcio hanno disputato due partite presso lo stadio di Bassano, entrambe nel 2013: nell'ordine vi giocarono la nazionale Under-21 e la nazionale femminile.

Diabetes mellitus is a condition where the body cannot regulate the amount of sugar or glucose in the blood stream. This is because the body is either not producing enough insulin or because the cells in the body are not responding to the insulin that is being produced. A lack of regulation in the amount of sugar in the blood stream can lead to a variety of symptoms in both the short and long-term. The long-term effects of high blood sugars can lead to serious health complications. Physiotherapy can help individuals with diabetes to reduce the risk of developing secondary health problems and to lead a normal active lifestyle.
Symptoms of undiagnosed diabetes include excessive thirst, a frequent need to pass urine, increased hunger, blurred vision and fatigue. There may also be some unexplained weight loss, nausea or abdominal pain. Once diabetes is diagnosed and the individual's blood sugars are under control, these symptoms will diminish.
Type 1 Diabetes is often known as insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) or juvenile diabetes as it usually affects children and young adults. Symptoms start over weeks/months as the pancreas stops producing insulin and blood sugars rise.
Type 2 Diabetes is often known as non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) or adult onset diabetes. It has a gradual onset and affects adults who are often obese as the cells stop responding to the insulin that is being produced by the body.
The third type of diabetes is called gestational diabetes (GDM). It resembles type 2 diabetes but it occurs during pregnancy and often disappears after delivery. It is important that the mother maintains strict control of blood sugars during pregnancy to avoid any harm to the unborn child.
Diabetes is diagnosed by your general practitioner using the results of a fasting blood glucose test. High levels of glucose in the blood before eating indicate that the pancreas is not producing enough insulin or the body is not responding to it appropriately. Your doctor will confirm the subtype of diabetes and commence appropriate treatment.
There is no cure for diabetes. It is managed using a combination of medication, diet and exercise. It is important that the individual understand the diagnosis and learns how to control their blood sugar levels independently. With support from a diabetic nurse, appropriate insulin delivery, a balanced diet and healthy lifestyle it is possible to achieve target blood glucose levels. However, without this glucose control, diabetes can cause a number of short and long-term health complications. Long-term uncontrolled blood sugars can cause damage to the eyes, kidneys, nerves and increased risk of cardiovascular disease such as heart attacks and stroke. The risk of these complications is increased if the individual with diabetes smokes, drinks high quantities of alcohol regularly and does not carry out any regular exercise.
Regular cardiovascular exercise is essential for those with diabetes as it helps the body to burn glucose and keeps cells healthy. This reduces the risk of the cells becoming resistant to insulin. Your physiotherapists can show how a range of cardiovascular and strengthening exercises at your local gym. A good exercise routine improves muscle strength, fitness, circulation and decreases blood pressure, body fat and the risk of secondary complications such as stroke and heart disease. It will help to improve your control of blood sugars and you will learn how your body responds to exercise. Our physiotherapists are also able to teach you a variety of exercises to do in water. Our hydrotherapy pool has ramp access to enable individuals of all ages and mobility levels to participate in water based exercise therapy within a warm shallow pool.
Our physiotherapists will work alongside your diabetes consultant, specialist nurse, chiropodist and other health professionals involved in the management of your long-term health condition. Our physiotherapist can liaise with them in a professional manner if necessary with your consent. At Physio.co.uk we work closely with a team of occupational therapists, podiatrists, orthotists and dieticians that can provide useful input into the management of diabetes.
At Physio.co.uk we have a clear understanding of the causes, symptoms and problems related to diabetes. With specialist physiotherapy treatment and advice you can avoid secondary complications and lead a normal fulfilling active life.
Physiotherapy sessions can be held at a location of your choice including one of our clinics, at your home, in the gym or in the hydrotherapy pool. Physiotherapy improves the management of diabetes and reduces the long-term associated health risks. To book an appointment or discuss your diabetic needs with a physiotherapist, please contact us now on 0330 088 7800. Alternatively, you can book an appointment with us online today!

1 kilo of Potatoes - 200 g. of Flour - 2 Eggs - 1 tablespoonful of Olive Oil or Butter - a pinch of Salt.
Prepare the dough with the boiled potatoes mashed and cooled, flour, eggs, oil or butter and a pinch of salt, and mix to a stiff dough. Roll out into sausage lengths about 1 inch thick and cut into small equal pieces, then press each one down the back of a fork in such a way that the dough is dented and will eventually absorb more sauce and therefore be more tasty.
Put into salty boiling water and when ready they will float to the top.
Once surfaced, skim and place in an oven dish, or small individual dishes, pour over some tomao sauce, sprinkle wih grated Parmisan cheese and small cube size pieces of mozzarella cheese. Place in oven till golden brown and serve wih fresh basil.
.500 g. of Spaghetti - 800 g. of Courgettes - 3 dal. Olive Oil - 50 g. Butter - 100 g. Parmisan Cheese - 100 g. Caciocavallo cheese (or sliced white cheese) - Salt - Basil.
Fry the courgettes, cut into small pieces, in hot olive oil a little a time until golden brown. Once fried place in layers in a dish and sprinkle wih salt, grated Parmisan cheese and basil.
Flavour with two tablespoons of the fried oil and leave for one hour.
At this point boil the spaghetti as to be firm when eaten and put them back onto the ring adding some boiled water with the ladle, then the butter, courgettes and thinly sliced caciocavallo. Flavour with basil. The paste of the Caciocavallo cheese will melt to form a creamy mixture to enhance the spaghetti.
500 g. Spaghetti - Oil of Oil - 1 Garlic clove - 100 g. shelled Nuts - 1 Anchovy - Parsley.
Lightly brown a piece of crushed garlic in the frying pan, then remove and replace with the kernels.
Cook the nuts on a moderate flame for four or five minutes bearing in mind that the oil contained in the kernel keeps toasting the nuts even after the flame has been extinguished.
Lastly add the anchovy which will crumple in the heat. Cook the spaghetti, drain leaving them slightly humid and add to the ingredients in the pan with tomato sauce. Saut� mixing thoroughly and add plenty finely chopped parsley.
Sliced Bread - Flour - Milk - Eggs - Mozzarella cheese - Frying oil.
Remove the crusts of bread and cut each slice in two or four parts; dip the crusts in milk, then in flour, dip in egg beaten with a pinch of salt and place on a plate.Sandwich the mozzarella cheese between two pieces of bread.
Dip in egg again and fry in fairly hot oil until the cheese melts.
1 kG. Cuttlefish - 2 Eggs - 100 g. grated Parmisan Cheese - 100 g. Mozzarella cheese - 50 g. Sultanas - Salt - Pepper - Olive Oil - 1 clove of Garlic - Hot Peppers - Parsley - 300 g. Tomatoes.
Scoop out the impurities contained in the pouch of the cuttlefish. Remove the cartilage inside and cut the tentacles. Combine all the ingredients in a basin and mix with a good helping of Parmisan cheese, eggs so as to obtain a thick creamy dough, add a pinch of salt and pepper, the mozzarella cheese cut into small cubes, and the sultanas.
Fill the pouch with the mixture and stitch tight with white thread. Put crushed garlic and red peppers in frying pan.Fry slightly until the oil absorbs the fragrance then remove both ingredients and replace with the tentacles.
Leave to fry slowly before adding the stuffed cuttlefish and cook on a high flame.Add the crushed tomatoes, salt to taste, lower the flame and cook for aprox. 20 minutes.Before serving remove thread, place on a dish and cover with the sauce, sprinkle with parsley.
300 g. Flour - 50 g. Sugar - 6 Eggs - Salt - 10 g. of yeast.
Sift the flour in a basin, take a quarter part and sieve with the yeast melted in tepid water (half glass). Leave to rise in a place away from draughts and if necessary first cover with a cloth and then with a woollen one as well.
When the dough has risen because of the effect of the fermentation produced from the yeast, add the beaten eggs, sugar and melted (not warm) butter, pinch of salt, then slowly sift the flour using a fork. A soft dough will be attained and should be kneeded well, even if using a mixer, before laying into a well greased tin cake which has previously been sprinkled with flour and sugar.
The dough should take up a third of the cake tin. Cover with a woollen cloth and leave to rise again. Put in oven until it has reached slightly more than half the height of the tin; should take about 1 hour and a half. Keep oven heat low until it thoroughly cooks the bab� and allow it to double its bulk. Then increase heat (from 100� to 200�) to bake perfectly.When the Bab� is cooled, remove from oven. To moisten the Bab�, boil half a litre of water with finely cut lemon skin spiral shaped and sugar. When almost cold add a glass of rum.
With this punch keep moisturing the Bab� until the liquid is absorbed.
500 g. Flour - large spoonful sugar - knob of Lard - pinch of Salt - sufficient white Wine or Marsala - Peanut oil for frying - Pastry Cream.
To prepare the dough for the cream horns sift together the flour on a work top with the lard in the centre, add salt and sugar and amalgamate with wine, or Marsala, until a soft elastic dough is attained.
Spread out thinly and cut into small squares to be rolled round the shapes: little tin tubes, in a way that the sides of the dough are laid one upon the other.
Press lightly with fingertips to crimp the edges to seal and dip the tubes covered in dough in abundant hot oil. The cream horns will brown in a few seconds, remove them and drain well. When lukewarm slip them delicately off the tube. Fill both ends with desired cream and sprinkle top with icing sugar.

A word that taunted me for years but seemed to give everyone around me an immense sense of joy.
I would ask myself constantly, "Why don't I feel the same?" I knew why and I would remind myself what I had been taught about my feelings. They're insignificant. My feelings and what I knew were just because I'm a teenager and "every teenager hates their parents." But I didn't hate my parents– at least not my Mother who had worked so hard to be OK.

About the Digitization of South Carolina Newspapers
Thanks to National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) funding and support from the Library of Congress from 2009-2015, the University of South Carolina Libraries digitized over 300,000 pages and 100 historical South Carolina newspaper titles, ranging in dates from 1836 to 1922. Since then, the University of South Carolina has continued to digitize and make available SC newspapers from all over the state. Almost all of these papers were scanned from the microfilm. You can find all of the digitized pages on the Historical South Carolina Newspapers Database and a portion of those at the Library of Congress' Chronicling America web site.

PUBG Corp's bolstering anti-cheat – and tougher bans are on the way
Like many online multiplayer games, PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds has seen a whole lot of cheating in recent years. As of last December, the PUBG cheating problem meant developer PUBG Corp. was dishing out around 100,000 bans to cheaters a week. Now, the studio's outlined a batch of new measures it's taking to address hacking and cheat program use – and plans for tougher bans on the way this year.
In a post on the battle royale game's site, executive producer of PUBG PC, Taeseok Jang, says: "The fight against cheat programs is never-ending and something we've been trying very hard to find a solution for". Noting cheating as a "high-priority issue" for the studio, Jang introduces the various "improvements" the developer's making this year "to ensure players can feel the impact of our efforts".
The first of these is "enhanced pre-emptive measures" designed to stop cheating before it even starts, such as two-factor authentication for users to prevent their accounts from being hijacked by cheaters, flagged, and banned. It's also looking to address hacking vulnerabilities in the games code itself.
In addition, however, this year the studio's "focusing on enhanced detection for our automated ban system as well as improving our hardware ban systems" for when cheats do happen.
There's a lot you want to know about our plans for this year.
In part one of this community letter from Executive Producer TS Jang, we talk about our plans to improve anti-cheat, performance, and stability.
➡ Read the full letter here: https://t.co/prwnohcwry pic.twitter.com/7Qzuj8KoTG
— PUBG (@PUBG) April 21, 2020
PUBG Corp's expanding the game's detection range "to better prevent cheat programs", as well as implementing "automatic analysis" to "automatically find clients using cheat programs by looking for exact differences in values between environments that are legitimate and those using cheats". The studio expects these changes to be ready to launch in July this year.
Once a cheater's been identified, the post continues, there are two ways it's toughening bans. First up, PUBG Corp's overhauling its system for issuing HWID bans, meaning the "improvements will seek hardware information at the user and kernel level using specific algorithms so that even if a cheat program tries to bypass, we will be able to quickly block the program again. This should help apply bans to PCs as well as accounts that use cheat programs."
As well as this, the company's bolstering the "level of bans" by changing the way it approaches those that have been temporarily banned for investigation. While the dev's determined to avoid "false bans" as much as is possible, Jang says the team's "come to realise that being too cautious here can negatively impact far more people than the suspected account". The studio's planning to bring in stricter measures, including "additional monitoring" for suspected cheaters, in June 2020.

Can it download paid apps?
– No, of course not, unless you purchased it with your logged account before. Please remember this isn't a tool for pirating.
Why do you make this extension?
– I'm an Android developer. While working on my new project, I have to decompile some apps on Google Play. Everytime I want to decompile one, I have to download it to my phone, use Astro to backup it to SDCard, connect phone to PC, then copy the apk file. That's a really long and painful to me, because I have to do it over and over again. That's why I come up with this idea.

As part of a hospital move billed the "biggest in Canada," 154 patients were transferred Sunday from the historic Royal Victoria facility to Montreal's new MUHC superhospital.
Final patient transferred to new site at 12:25 p.m.
As part of a hospital move billed the "biggest in Canada," 154 patients were transferred Sunday from the historic Royal Victoria facility to Montreal's new superhospital.
The move to the new McGill University Health Centre (MUHC) Glen site took several hours less than expected and involved fewer patients than originally thought, with some being discharged prior to the switch.
"It was just incredibly smooth," said Sheldon Magder, an intensive care unit physician at the MUHC.
"There was a lot of pre-planning... really good teamwork and everyone working together."
Beginning at 7 a.m., ambulances left the Royal Vic roughly every three minutes to shuttle patients to the MUHC.
A baby in neonatal intensive care was the first patient to be transported to the new McGill University Health Centre (MUHC) superhospital.
The last patient to be transferred arrived at the new site at 12:25 p.m.
The Royal Victoria hospital, an historic 122-year-old facility in downtown Montreal, stopped accepting new emergency room patients at 5 a.m.
The new MUHC facility admitted its first patient shortly afterward.
The first baby — a healthy boy weighing 3.6 kg —was delivered at the new site at 6:55 a.m., staff confirmed.
Greg Clark, an ER doctor, told reporters the new facility had been fully staffed for the past several days in preparation for the move.
"We're very excited to have this opportunity to be in this modern hospital," Clark said.
The move involved years of planning and presented a host of logistical challenges.
Health Care Relocations, an international consulting group which has moved 300 hospitals worldwide, was tasked with the job.
The Research Institute of the MUHC (an amalgamation of several MUHC sites) already completed opened its doors in February.
Spanning five city blocks, the new hospital has 346 adult care beds, 154 pediatric care beds and more than 8,000 staff.
The whole move is expected to cost $10 million.
The Black Watch Royal Highland Regiment paid tribute to the Royal Victoria and its years of service.
The hospital was built by Scottish immigrants in 1893.

Without treading into the territory of Not-Safe-For-Work, it's a fair call that there'll be plenty of pulses racing this Valentine's Day, or at the very least there'll be a few hearts aflutter. While you're thinking about what makes your heart thump, spare a thought for the valuable stuff inside it – blood.
This red stuff is surprisingly versatile and can be made into 22 different medical treatments, but it has a limited shelf life. The Australian Red Cross Blood Service needs consistent donations throughout the year in order to keep up demand, so if you're not already on board, why not make it your new good deed for 2016?
Why don't more people donate?
I don't have the time – This is one of the most common problems with volunteering for anything, but did you know that donating blood doesn't take that long at all? An appointment for whole blood donation (the kind everyone starts out with) takes just one hour. You can find out more about what an appointment involves here.
Won't it hurt? The feeling of the needle going in is a brief, mild sting at most and once it's in, you'll barely even notice it's there. Take it from me personally, I've had the jab a bunch of times and it's nothing to worry about. The agony of stubbing your toe lasts way longer than donating blood ever will.
It's scary to go alone – Who said you had to go alone? Provided you book in advance by calling 13 19 15, it's entirely possible to get appointments for you and your friends lined up around the same time. You can also get your workplace involved through the Red25 iiNet has been participating for several years and it's a great team bonding exercise as well as saving lives.
Once you've got a few whole blood donations under your belt, you can also look at donating Plasma or Platelets. These specific blood products are vital to treating a range of conditions including immune disorders, burns and other trauma, haemophilia and cancer.
An appointment to donate plasma or platelets takes a bit longer than whole blood because a process called apheresis is used. Your blood enters a centrifuge to separate your plasma or platelets from the rest of your blood, and then your red blood cells are returned to you along with fluids to replace the water content of the plasma you've donated. Because your red blood cells are returned to you, it's safe to donate more often – typically every 2-4 weeks.
This sounds good, how do I get started?
If you're keen to roll up your sleeve, you can check your eligibility and request an appointment at donateblood.com.au. Alternatively, you can give 13 14 95 a call and the friendly staff will talk you through registration.
Better yet, if you'd like to start your own Red25 group to help the Red Cross Blood Service make up 25% of Australia's blood needs through organisation and group donations, register online or call 1300 886 524.
Have any tips for would-be blood donators? Share them in the comments.
I was a blood donor from 25 years old to 50 plus years old later giving plasma on a fortnightly basis that's fine and I loved to do this,first in the Perth clinic then later in the Carousel clinic at Cannington,at the latter stage Red Cross introduced about 500ml of saline solution to replace lost or donated fluids this was fine for a while.
Then after a while my feet and legs began to swell and retain fluid when I asked about not administering this saline solution they declined also declined trying to do this to see if this was the cause of my swelling limbs,I was not happy that they would not at least investigate my problem as it may have been affecting others this way,so I decided I could no longer donate because of this swelling of my feet and limbs after donating.
an interesting article……… They would get more people to donate if they did not live in the dark ages and actually let gay males donate blood…… This is an issue with them assuming that we all have HIV or other viruses when in actual fact everyone is at the same risk regardless of sexuality……. I am disappointed that iinet would support this given the clear discrimination displayed by the Red Cross.
i think ive just noticed that my iinet adsl has been corrupted/modified by some indians who played with the wires out the front of my place. i would like to know if you are able to a port rebuild on your side of the server.
Best to raise with our Support (13 22 58) team, Neil. A Customer Service Representative will able to investigate and run through any necessary troubleshooting to restore.

Q: crossing number and thickness of a simple graph $G$
Crossing number$($cr$)$: The crossing number of a simple graph is the minimum number of crossings that can occur when this graph is drawn in the plane where no three arcs representing edges are permitted to cross at the same point. For an undirected simple graph $G$ with $n$ vertices and $e$ edges such that $e > 7n$ the crossing number is always at least $$cr(G)\geq \frac{e^3}{29n^2}$$

$(1)$ I was wondering is there exist any upper bound in general$?$ Here is a upper bound for the crossing number of the complete bipartite graph $K_{m,n}$. I need a proof of that result.$($if possible than provide a simple's one$)$

Thickness: The thickness of a simple graph G is the smallest number of
  planar subgraphs of G that have G as their union.

$(2)$ I was wondering is there any relation between these two number$?$
I asked the same question at MSE and get suggested to ask it here.

Radio Bean Birthday Party November 5, 2016 Leave a comment
Joe Adler and the Rangers of Danger at Radio Bean November 5, 2016 pic by Tim Lewis
I had a great time seeing music at Radio Bean and Light Club Lamp Shop last Saturday. For their birthday each year the Bean always throws a huge party with tons of bands. The show goes from 8am to 2am with almost every band in town. I usually stop in early, then go to work, then come back in the evening. Last year I took the day off and stopped in several times. This year my work schedule changed and I open on Saturdays and did not think I could be at work at 8:20 after stopping in.
It was a long tricky work day. I got out at 5, stopped quickly at home and arrived at the Bean at 5:30. Joe Adler & The Rangers Of Danger had just finished a Pj Harvey song as I got in and settled. Joe Adler was joined by Dalton Muzzy, Caroline O'Connor, Eric "Regal Segal" Segalstad, AaYa Segalstad. It was a nice version of the Rangers, who always seem to be a slightly different band. I did not know the two songs they played. The one about the wicked witch and the Dead Sea Scrolls sounded familiar and was nicely rocked out. The closer about I'll go soon featured a hyper distorted frenzied guitar workout from Eric and I was in a happy place.
Note from Joe Adler & The Rangers Of Danger "Always a pleasure to see you in the audience Tim! Glad you made it. The second song was an original called Fight or Flight, the final song was a Radiohead deep cut called How Can You Be Sure."
Honky Tonk Band at Radio Bean November 5, 2016 pic by Tim Lewis
It was a quick changeover then Brett Hughes and the Honky Tonk played some old school country songs. He played guitar and was joined by a bass player I did not know, Jeremy Frederick on drums, a pedal steel player I did not know and Marie Claire Johnson on vocals. Brett sang most of the songs though Marie took lead on the second one. It's been far too long since I have heard her sing and she always sounds great. They played three songs, mostly about whiskey, then called it a night. It's not my favorite genre but they played it so well that I had a great time.
Swale at Radio Bean November 5, 2016 pic by Tim Lewis
SWALE were up next and came out rocking. I did not know the opening song with the lyric "sound the alarm" that Tyler Bolles sang (Lawn Fire by The Pants per Tyler), but it was pretty cool. The band rocked hard on Jack Sharp then eased off with the lovely Waiting For You. Since they had learned the Paranoid album for a show they played last week, they ended the set with a blistering Fairies Wear Boots. It was great.
Cave Bees at Radio Bean November 5, 2016 pic by Tim Lewis
Another quick changeover resulted in Cave Bees taking the stage. They rocked as loud and hard and as fast as always. They opened with Sweet Pussy then played the newer song Juliet. Another newer one that I don't know the title of kept things rocking hard. The song about being saved by rock and roll, I think it might be called Queen City, was brilliant. They closed the set with Flight Of The Alligator and the whole room was rocked.
Caroline O'Connor at Light Club Lamp Shop November 5, 2016 pic by Tim Lewis
I was not sure who was on left, so I looked at the schedule then immediately ran to the Lamp Shop. Caroline Marie was on stage playing Ritual as I settled in. She created the usual loops with voice and guitar then picked up the sax and blew through the lovely end section. For the next song she set up a backing track with herself on bass and Jane Boxall Percussion on drums and played guitar and sang the gorgeous song Fly. I was elated for every note and that song ended the set.
Silver Bridget at Light Club Lamp Shop November 5, 2016 pic by Tim Lewis
The next band looked familiar so I did not move. Silver Bridget have a beautiful sound, rock a bit, and play some familiar songs. They feature John Townsend on acoustic guitar and kick drum, Matt Saraca on electric guitar and Johnnie Day Durand on the musical saw. They played great versions of Girl You'll Be A Woman Soon, Love Me Tender, and caught the full room by surprise when they pulled out Creep. It was short, but magnificent set.
Tom Banjo at Radio Bean November 5, 2016 pic by Tim Lewis
I popped back over to the Bean and saw one song from Tom Banjo and his Cranky Show. He seems pretty happy and optimistic and it was his visual aid that is cranky. He has a box with a scroll of thin paper with lots of images and a strong light behind it. Lee Anderson stood behind the machine and turned the cranks to load in each image as Tom told a story of a cat getting into lots of adventures, but always coming back. It was fun.
I popped back to the Lamp Shop and Osage Orange were on. They are a trio with a low-fi indie sound and have something compelling about their songs. One song may have said something about they could not stop us from dreaming. They finished with a new song about an arms dealer who falls in love with an herbalist. The constant refrain of I Would Sell My Guns For You was pretty cool.
Brian Parmalee at Light Club Lamp Shop November 5, 2016 pic by Tim Lewis
I caught a couple of songs from Brian Parmalee. He played keys and set up loops and played bass and sang. It was a nice lush sounding set and I think the last song was called Fetch.
Steady Betty at Radio Bean November 5, 2016 pic by Tim Lewis
I headed back to the jam packed Bean and found a place to stand in the back and got into the swing of Steady Betty's set. Kat Wright and Miriam Bernardo sounded fantastic as always on the lead vocals. Caroline played bass, so I got to see her in thee bands, which is always cool. They opened with Cupid then played the one about anything to stay boy. Linda Bassick took lead vocals for her song about change is coming. Joy In The Morning followed and was divine. They closed with the song about still being in love with you boy. Everyone in the room was dancing and having fun.
At that point the length of the day caught up with me. I headed out and had a lovely walk home. I only saw 10 of the 80 bands who played but had a great time while I was there.

The common thing which parents of teenagers can connect to – how to deal with teenagers, parenting a child was far more easy than the phase of parenting a teenager. It is a milestone when your teenager says 'I Love You' with a big smile. When your teen is happy, you are on top of the world.
Teenage is the time when slowly you have to step back and let your children take charge of their lives. More often, parents get to hear a common phrase 'It's my life, I can manage on my own. You don't need to interfere'. Despite this attitude, they struggle daily. It is important to understand the adolescence and the brain behind it and how to deal with teenagers.
Teens go through difficult times every day such as puberty, bullying, projects, submissions, exams, obsessiveness about their bodies, competitiveness and much more. During this phase, they detach themselves from us. This is the time we need to focus more on their problems to reconnect again with them. If your teenager is fighting with you over small issues regularly, choose what is the most important thing you need to focus on? Look into the situation and maintain balance. Decide and write down the three most important things you need to focus on how to deal with teenagers.
There are several issues you could have a fight over if they don't clean their messy room if they don't sleep or wake up on time if they don't work on time. All these things make us upset. But take a pause and think again how to deal with teenagers. Research has proved that parents of a teen should not try to improve all the things together. If there is a major problem such as drugs or any other addiction, you need to focus on that first. Rest of the things are secondary. Deal with the situation, why is he getting into this and how you can take him out of it.
Teenagers usually fight when they know that their parents would not agree with their decisions. When they choose a career which we as parents think, would not give them more money or they'll be homeless in future due to this. Relax and look back to your teenage years. When you wanted a school of your choice and your parents did not let you choose. Discuss with your children the pros and cons of everything and let them decide. It is your duty to show them the guiding light, they have to walk alone. Parents will not stay forever with children. This is the best way of how to deal with teenagers.
If you will allow them to choose a career what they love, they will try their best to achieve it. They will never think they are working. Never compare your children with others. Of course, all the parents dream of a renowned university and a renowned career but do not push them.
Even if they will get admission on your push, they will not love it. They might not be able to work hard to pass this journey. Help them choose what they love to do and encourage them to work hard for the same. Help them to get the best out of it. Teach them to be a good and honest human being above all. Rest of the things will follow.
Pick your value and fight for the thing which is spoiling your children. Rest, let it go, they will learn on their own.
Most of the teenagers do crazy things which drive us crazy too. There is a generation gap between us and our children. We have not been grown up in such circumstances, so it is difficult to accept and we end up in fighting over small issues. There is no manual or no such thumb rule to tackle this situation. We need to follow new ways of how to deal with teenagers.
Have patience and discuss with them openly. Tell them, if it is truly important for them to do. If it really defines them what they are. If they think it is important, be careful how you approach it. More you will fight over it, more they will fight back. Fighting is not a solution, try a different approach.
Treat your teenager with respect, learn how to let it go. Do not disrespect your teenager and do not remind them every time that they are irresponsible. They will learn gradually as we have learned from our mistakes. Give them a chance to be more responsible. I believe they will become responsible if we will respect them. We are so busy telling them, what they are doing wrong. That's why they often oppose us.
Let them take responsibility for their actions and make them feel empowered. Teach them how to self-reflect and self-evaluate. Discuss why they have done so and what they think will be the consequence.
We all know how 'lack of communication' creates most of the problems. It is very important to communicate to build any relation. Talking and speaking up is the key to a good relationship. We hardly get any time to talk to our teenager. Sometimes they are busy and sometimes parents are busy. But in the case of teenagers, talking can end up in a fight. We start giving them lectures and that is the reason they don't want to share anything with us. This is not the right way of how to deal with teenagers.
Do not say 'let's talk' instead say 'you talk, I'll listen'.
Spend time together and know their world.
Be casual, do not frighten them by saying 'I need to discuss something important'.
Often invite them to have coffee or an ice-cream with them.
Try to change your channels of communication, instead of talking try to write a message for your teen.
Based on the research, love can basically improve our heart, brain, and body. It will not only have a positive effect on your child's heart, brain, and body but also you as well.
Teenagers usually say 'I hate you'. They express hate towards you, let it go. It is not about what they feel about you but the circumstances or problems which they are passing through. We as parents need to express unconditional love when the things are good or bad. It is not about approving everything even if they are doing something wrong. It doesn't mean they'll party all night or lead a reckless life. By the time they are thirteen, give them some responsibilities and let them explore.
We love them unconditionally regardless of what they do, regardless of their grades or their test results. Let them know you are there to help them and support them in all the circumstances. Once we do this, chances are they'll be free to share things with us regardless of what happens.
At times children get angry, they go crazy, get upset or mad over something. What we often do is suppress their feelings. We do something to suppress their madness, anger or sadness. This is wrong.
The Science of Happiness has proved that we as parents and our children need to experience all the emotions. All emotions are valid and good. If they are sad or angry all the time, we need to look into the matter and consider it seriously. But if sometimes they get angry, let them be and let them express their feelings.
Try not to suppress their emotions, it will make them angrier. Let them go through all this and understand, it is natural and part of human life. If they fight with a friend, let them fight. Help them to reconnect later.
If there is no anger, there will be no change in the world. As long as your children are healthy and sometimes get upset, let them be. Gradually they'll come back to the natural and happy state.
