There is often a trap in the words 'after school activities'. One may easily believe that since these activities are after school, they are not of much importance. But, one couldn't be more wrong. Research suggests that children pick up some of their most important skills from after school programs. That is why children who do not participate in any extra curricular activities are generally slow and less vibrant.

other financial topics are sure to appear in many of the
blogs that you regularly read. Techniques to make and
manage money are some of the most popular topics for

debt. Falling into debt is all too easy, and getting out of
debt can be very difficult for people who do not have a
lot of financial expertise. For people who have a knack
for dealing with finances, blogging about their insights
and knowledge can be a great way to literally and
figuratively share the wealth.

You, and you alone can decide what your child needs to do or learn. Tailoring the curriculum to suit the needs and interests of the child is one of the most obvious benefits of homeschooling

For millions of parents around the world, the day does not end with the school bell. There are still pictures to be painted, songs to be sung and games to be played. This all adds up to keeping children happy, safe and out of trouble. But, parents have to steer away from going overboard.
After school is not baby-sitting:
After school activities thrive only if it is backed by sufficient parental involvement. What would a soccer match be without parents cheering their little heroes from the sidelines?.
Of all of the different kinds of programs on the market
today, many people feel that Microsoft's recently
released ASP.NET blogging software is the most
advanced. In many ways, this particular program is
more adaptable and more versatile than any other
blogging software on the market. Although most of the
people who favor the program are accomplished coders
who are familiar with programming languages like html
and C++, this new program from Microsoft is much
easier to use than a lot of other blog design software
that incorporates hands-on coding. One of the things
that makes ASP.NET stand apart from its competitors is
the fact that it allows designers to use a wide variety of
programming languages when they build a blog. This
means that a larger number of coders can realize their
dreams by programming in the language with which
they are most familiar and in which they are most
accomplished.

berbagai strategi Partai Politik (Parpol) untuk mengangkat maupun
menjegal lawan politiknya. Kabar terakhir, Partai Gerindra dibuat pusing

Sontak, gambar uang yang membuat heboh media

Kemampuan Indonesia dalam membuat armada bus tak bisa lagi diremehkan.
Di kawasan Asia Tenggara, produk bus angkutan umum karya Indonesia
merupakan jawaranya.

Sayang,

bus dengan nama sendiri. Produk bus asal putra Indonesia lebih banyak
menumpang nama-nama produsen besar luar negeri.

mendapatkan uang lebih tanpa harus bekerja keras. Tak heran, bila ada
seseorang atau satu perusahana menawarkan satu investasi yang menawarkan
imbal hasil menggiurkan sontak saja akan diburu banyak orang.
Mereka yang tergiur pun mulai dari orang biasa, hingga artis.
Sayangnya, tak jarang tawaran investasi tersebut ternyata hanya
akal-akalan segelintir orang tak bertanggung jawab yang mencari untung
semata dari kelengahan orang lain. Mereka yang menjadi korban antara
lain para artis yang namanya sudah sangat dikenal masyarakat Indonesia.
Pekerjaan dengan kehidupan pribadi memang hal yang tak bisa
dipisahkan. Bahkan bumbu-bumbu percintaan kerap hadir di tempat kerja.

Mesir Ada banyak penemuan di bawah permukaan planet kita yang
berpotensi mengubah cara kita memandang sejarah. Salah satunya adalah
'dunia yang terlupakan' yakni ruang bawah tanah yang belum diselidiki
selama berabad-abad.
Disebutkan dalam berbagai teks kuno dan legenda lokal, ruang
misterius telah dianggap sebagai mitos sampai mereka benar-benar
ditemukan.
Sebuah penemuan luar biasa kali ini diklaim dapat mengubah sejarah
dunia--labirin di bawah tanah--dianggap sebagai salah satu penemuan
terbesar dari Mesir Kuno, dipercaya memegang jawaban yang tak terhitung
jumlahnya untuk sejarah itu sendiri.
Dilansir dari ancient-code.com ,
Senin (16/11/2015), para peneliti menemukan labirin membentuk komplek
bangunan dengan ruang-ruang yang panjang dan dalam. Temuan ini
disebut-sebut sama istimewanya dengan piramida.
Desain Labirin raksasa bawah tanah milik peradaban Mesir kuno
Komplek bawah tanah tersebut juga dipercaya menyimpan misteri
asal-muasal manusia dan catatan kuno tentang Atlantis. Termasuk rincian
peradaban, kerajaan-kerajaan besar dan penguasa sebelum sejarah yang
sudah diketahui.
Sementara itu, berdasarkan catatan sejarah seperti Herodotus,
diketahui gambaran seperti apa labirin tersebut. Labirin tersebut
terdiri dari 12 bangunan besar dengan pintu yang saling berhadapan satu
sama lain.
Terdapat dua jenis ruang dalam labirin tersebut, satu berada di bawah
sementara lainnya di atasnya. Masing-masing jenisnya berjumlah 1500
ruang dengan total 3000 ruang.
Tidak ada yang mengetahui secara pasti berapa usia sebenarnya dari
labirin raksasasa bawah tanah milik bangsa Mesir kuno ini, namun
Herodotus yang merupakan salah satu penulis naskah pada peradaban kuno
pernah mengunjungi bangunan labirin yang dimaksud lebih dari 1.300 tahun
yang lalu. (Dsu)/Rie

Following Friday's terrorist attacks in Paris, several stores in the
city as well as cultural institutions like museums reopened their doors
Monday. However, some stores, including Gap, La Prairie and Calvin Klein
canceled press events, while Victoria Beckham postponed an appearance
at Galeries Lafayette. Analysts speculate that despite
beefed-up security, consumers (specifically Chinese shoppers) will
likely avoid the city in the coming holiday months. Meanwhile,
L'Oreal Paris mourns the loss of digital projects manager Quentin

"If I didn't have the body I do, I wouldn't have the career I do," wrote the model.
"So many people are so quick to comment negative opinions this month.
Yes, judgment on social comes from people who, 99% of the time, have no
idea what they're talking about," she wrote on Monday, "but I'm human,
and I'm not going to lie, I did let the negativity get to me a little."

"It sickens me to think at 17 years old, a photo of myself with my nieces is suggesting that I'm 'asking for it.' "
Ariel Winter, social media vigilante, is back at it. For the second time
in a month, the 17-year-old has taken to Instagram to shut down the
hateful commenters who leave nasty messages on her posts.
Her social media activism began a few weeks back, when the Modern Family actress regrammed a photo from Ariana Grande in which the young starlets showed support for one another in the face of anonymous body shamers.
Over the weekend, after posting a photo of herself in a bikini with
her two young nieces, Winter received comments insinuating that by
posing in a swimsuit, she was "asking for it." Though the actress admits
that usually she wouldn't dignify such remarks with a response, she
felt a duty to stand up not just for herself, but for girls everywhere
who are judged by the clothes they wear.
"Who knew that an innocent photo with my nieces would turn into
this?" Winter captioned a second photo, which illustrated the various
judgments passed based on the length of a woman's skirt. "It sickens me
to think at 17 years old, a photo of myself with my nieces is suggesting
that I'm 'asking for it.' "
She continued, "I typically never give power to the mean things people
bravely say behind their computer screens on the Internet, but this is
for the girls who are constantly bullied whether it be online or at
school. You are not asking for anything because of what you are wearing-
you are expressing yourself and don't you ever think you deserve the
negativity as the consequence to what you are wearing- YOU ARE
BEAUTIFUL."

Strange news out of Japan this week: It appears that the humanoid companion robot known as Pepper —
which can read emotions and converse with humans — has a curious clause
in its user contract. Buyers must agree not to have sex with the
merchandise.
Pepper,
you see, is designed to use voice analysis and facial recognition to
respond to human emotional cues. But not, evidently, like that.

Ketua Asosiasi Pengusaha Indonesia (Apindo) Benny Soetrisno
mengatakan, saat ini para pengusaha lokal, khususnya yang berorientasi
ekspor, memiliki strategi khusus dalam mengatasi gejolak nilai tukar
rupiah terjadap dolar Amerika Serikat (AS).
Dia mengatakan, salah
satu caranya yaitu tidak lagi menggunakan dolar AS dalam setiap
transaksi ekspor impor dengan negara lain selain AS.
"Ada perubahan cara pembayaran, jadi pembeli di Eropa meminta jangan
pakai dolar AS, tetapi pakai euro. Sehingga mereka membayar dengan. euro
otomatis, mereka jual euro. Begitu juga dengan China, sekarang pakai
yuan," ujarnya dalam acara Bincang Sore 'Rupiah dan Nasib Ekonomi
Indonesia' di SCTV Tower, Jakarta, Kamis (3/9/2015).
Menurut
Benny, dengan cara seperti ini, perlahan-lahan para pengusaha dapat
mengurangi ketegantungan terhadap dolar AS sehingga efek penguatan dolar
sedikit ditekan.
(BI) berupaya menjaga nilai tukar rupiah terhadap dolar Amerika
Serikat (AS) agar tidak terlalu merosot. Salah satunya dengan
memanfaatkan fasilitas bilateral guarantee soft agreement (BGSA) yaitu
melakukan transaksi ekspor impor kepada beberapa negara terutama China
dengan menggunakan mata uang Yuan.
Artinya, pembayaran transaksi ekspor impor kepada China tidak harus
melalui transit penukaran dengan dolar Amerika Serikat (AS). Transit ini
bisa langsung menggunakan nilai tukar rupiah dengan yuan. Bank Indonesia (BI)
pun mengimbau kepada semua pengusaha terutama yang melakukan ekspor
impor ke China untuk memanfaatkan fasilitas BGSA dalam rangka mendukung
percepatan menekan nilai tukar rupiah terhadap dolar AS.
Sedangkan transaksi dalam negeri, Yoga menuturkan harus ada larangan
melakukan transaksi pembayaran uang mau pun jasa yang menggunakan mata
uang selain rupiah. Ini dilakukan untuk tetap menjaga kestabilan
peredaran rupiah.

Bok-dong is 89 now, and is going blind and deaf. She knows her health
is fading, and she can no longer walk unassisted. But her eyes burn
bright with a passion borne of redressing her suffering of a lifetime
ago.
She enters a meeting of
Tokyo foreign correspondents in a wheelchair, visibly exhausted after a
flight from Seoul and days of interviews and meetings.
The
nightmares from five years as a sex slave of the Japanese army, from
1940 onwards, are still crystal clear. Kim is determined to share her
story with anyone who will listen, until she's no longer physically
able.
"My only wish is to set the record straight about the past. Before I die," Kim says.
Nightmare begins
Kim
was a 14-year-old girl when the Japanese came to her village in Korea.
She says they told her she had no choice but to leave her home and
family to support the war effort by working at a sewing factory.
"There was no option not to go," she recalls. "If we didn't go, we'd be considered traitors,"
Korean 'comfort women' meet with Pope02:07
Instead
of going to a sewing factory, Kim says she ended up in Japanese
military brothels in half a dozen countries. Along with about 30 other
women, she says she was locked in a room and forced to do things no
teenage girl -- no woman -- should ever have to do.
Kim describes seemingly endless days of soldiers lined up outside the brothel, called a "comfort station."
Often they were so close to the front lines, they could hear the battles of World War Two happening all around them.
