, and it’s much easier for creepers to be creepy. Those lines and newbies can be super annoying. But so can a skeleton crew of help and no one available to walk you to your car in the hours between really late and really early.
Practice Proper Parking Protocol
Park under a light, near a security camera (you picked a gym with security cameras in the lot, right? Or near a parking facility with security cameras — which are proven to drop crime by 50 percent). Make sure all your valuables are out of sight, in your trunk, or preferably out of your car all together — but not in the gym. Keep them home, thank you very much. Walk to your car purposefully, cell phone and keys in hand, aware of the situation around you. If it’s dark, ask the gym for someone to escort you to your vehicle.

Keep Your Stuff Secured — Or Away From The Gym
One popular gym chain has a line of hooks for you to hang your keys on. A thief just has to pick up a set, walk into the lot, and start clicking the automatic lock button until they hone in on the correct car. Don’t use the hooks.
For that matter, don’t use unsecured lockers for your gym bag: your keys, your phone, your wallet, your gym card, your clothes, even your sneakers and towel. Pick a locker on the end, where it’s more likely to be in other people’s field of vision and hence less likely to be tampered with. Bring a padlock, and not a cheap one. Use it, and carry the key on a chain around your neck or a workout-friendly bracelet. And bring as few items as you possibly can. And it goes (almost) without saying: no expensive jewelry or watches, please.
Keep Tabs On Your Items
There are some things — like your phone and headphones, your gym card, maybe your phone, your towel — that you absolutely want to bring with you to the gym. That increases if you’re hitting the pool, when your gear quotient ups exponentially.
Be deliberate. Know what you have with you, and memorize it in order: “Water-phone-headphones-card-towel,” or the like. Develop a habit of repeating it after every single machine or move you make, and checking you have every single item on the list as you repeat it. That way, you don’t leave anything behind.
In The Washington Post, Detective Sonya Richardson of the Falls Church Police Department said of gyms, “What’s unbelievable is that people think their property is safe there.” The Post goes on to note that “Locker rooms are smorgasbords of unattended jewelry, electronics, credit cards and cash, but they don’t have security cameras and often are designed to allow for privacy.”
Of course, you need to use the equipment safely and know your own physical limits. But you also need to be aware of the people around you. Watch your stuff, take steps to keep yourself and things safe, and use common sense to make sure that if thieves are around, you’re not the one they target.This time, the Tokyo Olympic Games, The athletes of our country have a great performance, But small S It's because of some inappropriate remarks, Make yourself ready to be put on the cusp.

Mississippi Governor Haley Barbour says the death toll could be as high as 80 in one Mississippi county alone.
The powerful storm cut a path of destruction through (the southern U.S. states of) Louisiana, Alabama and Mississippi, uprooting trees and destroying homes and buildings.
Rescuers used helicopters to pluck stranded residents from rooftops of houses submerged in flooding. The death toll is expected to rise.
Live power lines are down and gas lines ruptured, and authorities are warning residents not to return to their homes yet.
The storm came ashore early Monday and has cut power to more than one-million residents. Officials say it could be weeks before residents are allowed back into the area.
Forecasters say the storm is now centered in northern Mississippi, and moving northeast.

Billboard is reporting that Matt Roberts, a founding member of 3 Doors Down, one of the most successful bands of the early 2000s, has died. Roberts was 38.
3 Doors Down was founded in 1996, by childhood friends Roberts (lead guitar), Brad Arnold (vocals and drums) and Todd Harrell (bass). Of the three founding members, only Arnold is still with the band; Roberts departed in 2012 for health reasons, while Harrell was removed from the band after being charged with vehicular homicide in 2013.
Accompanied by guitarist Chris Henderson, the group exploded into the public consciousness in 2000 with “Kryptonite,” the first single off its debut album The Better Life. (The album would later lend its name to a charitable foundation run by the group’s members, credited with raising funds for Habitat For Humanity and lending support to towns damaged by Hurricane Katrina.) The Better Life—which also featured the hit singles “Loser” and “Duck And Run”—was the 11th-best-selling album of the year, and secured 3 Doors Down its dominant place in the musical scene of the early 2000s.
Roberts’ death was announced today by his father, Darrell Roberts. No cause of death has been announced, but the TMZ report on the death suggests prescription drugs may have been involved.abstract
- Multifrequency lasing in a new class of injection heterolasers, i.e., in an interband two-cascade laser with a tunneling p-n junction separating two active regions of quantum wells located in the same waveguide is obtained and studied. The developed laser structure with pulsed pumping provided the simultaneous emission of two first-order modes with the wavelengths of 1.063 and 0.98 m and two third-order modes with the wavelengths of 0.951 and 0.894 m. Due to nonlinear mixing of the modes within the laser cavity, the generation of the second harmonics and sum frequencies was observed. 2007 Pleiades Publishing, Ltd.- News

'Optimism' as teacher strike vote looms
The Chilliwack school board and local teachers’ union expressed vague optimism and few specifics in light of a looming provincewide teacher strike vote next week.
Citing major concession demands by government, an unfair salary offer, and a deliberately confrontational attempt to reverse the recent BC Supreme Court decision on class size, composition, and staffing levels, the B.C. Teachers’ Federation (BCTF) announced Tuesday teachers will vote on job action March 4 to 6.
If teachers approve a strike, they would have 90 days to activate some sort of job action, but the BCTF has said that wouldn’t mean school closures, teachers walking away from extracurricular activities or a disruption to report cards or communication with parents—yet.
But all those could come—as they did two years ago—if no progress is made at the provincial bargaining table.
“When you vote for a strike, legally you are voting to allow your organization to undertake any kind of action it wants,” Chilliwack Teachers’ Association (CTA) president Clint Johnston told the Times.
He said he is hopeful, however, that all job action can be avoided even if a strike is approved by teachers next week.
“We are eternal optimists and we hope to conclude a deal at the table,” he said, “and we’re optimistic that, if the government learns the lesson we believe the courts are trying tell it, which is that they need to bargain in good faith at the table, that we can have a deal within 90 days, and we can walk away without any action ever impacting children or students.”
His sentiments were echoed by school board chair Walt Krahn
