  • It's Not Just About Tents and Campfires
    It’s not just about tents and campfires An example of how a non-governmental organization empowers young people to become good citizens making a positive change in their communities as well as in the world. Emelie Göransson Bachelor’s thesis in Development Studies, 15hp Department of Human Geography, Lund University Autumn 2013 Supervisor: Karin Steen Abstract The concept of empowerment is deeply rooted in power relations. Young people have often been seen as incompetent, however, if given the right tools they can achieve positive change today. They are not merely the adults of the future; they are the youth of today. Education and awareness rising are key ingredients in the creation of change and development. How to educate, enable and empower young people one might ask; the answer provided in this thesis is through the Scout Movement. The reason for this is that the Scout Movement is the world’s largest non-formal educational movement with a positive view on what young people can achieve. It is a movement that teaches young people good citizenship and empowers them to become self-fulfilled individuals creating a positive change in their communities. KEYWORDS: Scout, Scouting, the Scout Movement, the Scout Method, Youth, Young People, Empowerment, Citizenship, Community Involvement, Social Change.

Special Thanks INTRODUCTION Known unofficially for decades as the Old Pueblo, Tucson is building on its vibrant multicultural heritage to create a more urban, yet uniquely Southwestern-style future. The rest of the nation is taking notice that Tucson is on the upswing—a high quality of life, economic opportunity, lots to do and experience, and a happening dining, arts, entertainment, and local events scene. Tucson is being increasingly recognized for its livability, vitality, and cool factor. Tucson is a place like none other. Surrounded by five mountain ranges—the highest reaching more than 9,000 feet in elevation – and home to giant saguaro and other rare cacti in the heart of the living Sonoran Desert, Tucson enjoys an average 350 days of sunshine each year. Tucson hosts eclectic festivals and events year-round, most of them one-of-a-kind and home- grown, celebrating the region’s history and culture, visual and performing arts, a unique food heritage—Tucson is the first American city to be named a City of Gastronomy by UNESCO— local music, outdoor recreation, nature, science and technology, spectator sports, cycling and running.

    Jumpable 0.4.1 /co/co/’s Bizarre Adventures Welcome to Earth! Not your Earth, obviously, but one that at first glance looks about the sa… actually, that’s a lie. All sorts of weirdness is going on here, like cowardly dogs smarter than the average person, talking animals ranging from odd hybrids to almost human, and even a certain Man of Steel. But peel your eyes real good, and another layer of crazy shows up. Madmen wearing the same maledicted malicious [MELODIC] mask appearing every few hundred years to raise hell, a tribe of ancient warriors of dubious morality with mystic power thrumming in their [CELS] right about to wake up from their slumber, and even demonic conspiracies threatening to take over entire countries! ‘Course, each one bears elaboration, so I’m gonna make this the usual Location (well, Era) choice too. Roll 1d8 or pick for 0 CP, it’s all cool here. +1000 CP to start with, in case you’ve forgotten the rules already. 1. The first story of this world is that of Courage, a cowardly dog who lives in the middle of Nowhere with his owners, Muriel and Eustace Bagge. One day, the mask Eustace normally uses to spook the dog is broken by his wife, resulting in him stealing a new one from a travelling gypsy. But that [MASK] holds a dark power within, and CoCo is forced to tame his fear of ghosts and ghouls in order to stop his old master, now corrupted by the cursed artifact. 2. The second story of this world is that of a stylish man known as Johnny Bravo, who crash lands in Central America right as the enterprising Hank Hill and his guide, Nigel Thornberry, come in contact with an ancient race of beings known as the Pillarmen.

  • Boy Scout Joining Requirements
    Other Joining Requirements from page 4 of the Boy Scout Handbook Demonstrate the Scout Sign, Salute, and Handshake Scout Sign The Scout sign shows you are a Scout. Give it each time you recite the Scout Oath and Law. When a Scout or Scouter raises the Scout sign, all Scouts should make the sign, too, and come to silent attention. To give the Scout sign, cover the nail of the little finger of your right hand with your right thumb, then raise your right arm bent in a 90-degree angle, and hold the three middle fingers of your hand upward. Those fingers stand for the three parts of the Scout Oath. Your thumb and little finger touch to represent the bond that unites Scouts through out the world. Scout Salute The Scout salute shows respect. Use it to salute the flag of the United States of America. You may also salute a Scout leader or another Scout. Give the Scout salute by forming the Scout sign with your right hand and then bringing that hand upward until your forefinger touches the brim of your hat or the arch of your right eyebrow. The palm of your hand should not show. Scout Handshake The Scout handshake is made with the hand nearest the heart and is offered as a token of friendship. Extend your left hand to another Scout and firmly grasp his left hand. The fingers do not interlock. Describe the Scout Badge The badge is shaped like the north point on an old compass. The design resembles an arrowhead or a trefoil – a flower with three leaves.
