Crystal Scouts: Encyclopedia II - Scouting - Coeducation

At the international level, there are two separate umbrella organisations for coeducational and boys-only organisations (WOSM), and for organisations for girls only (WAGGGS). Historically, the early success of the Boy Scouts attracted girls, but the mores of the times did not allow a coeducational programme. Scouting for girls was started by Baden-Powell in the form of the Guide movement, with the aid of his sister Agnes who was the first Guide Commissioner. Later, his wife Olave took the leading role ...

Crystal Scouts: Encyclopedia II - Scouting - Breakaway and nonaligned organisations

Scouting is first and foremost an educational game, one that benefits any youth that would learn from its method. Between the first publication of Scouting for Boys and the creation of the first supranational Scout organization, WOSM, fifteen years had passed and millions of copies of the appealing handbook had been sold in dozens of languages. By that point, Scouting was the purview of the ...

Crystal Scouts: Encyclopedia II - Scouting - Conceptual Influences

Many elements of traditional Scouting have their origins in Baden-Powell's own personal education and military training. But it has to be remembered that the ideas that he promoted were revolutionary in education in his time. He was unique, a retired army general at 55 years of age, able to inspire and enthuse thousands of young people, from all parts of society, to get involved in activities most of them had never contemplated. The only comparable organisation (in the English-speaking world), the Boys' Brigade, has never been able ...

Crystal Scouts: Encyclopedia II - Scouting - Origins

Lt-Gen. Sir Robert Baden-Powell founded the Scouting movement in 1907 in the United Kingdom. He also introduced the parallel movement for girls, the Girl Guides in 1910 with the aid of his sister Agnes Baden-Powell. The Guides are known as the Girl Scouts of the USA in the United States. The seeds of the idea of Scouting began during the Siege of Mafeking, South Africa, during the Second Boer War of 1899–1902, where Baden-Powell served as the commanding officer. Baden-Powell defended the town against the Boers (later known as Afrika ...

Crystal Scouts: Encyclopedia II - Scouting - World Membership Badge

The world membership badge is part of the official uniform of Scouts in all parts of the world. It is a purple, circular badge with a fleur-de-lis in the centre, surrounded by a piece of rope tied with a reef knot (also called a square knot). The fleur-de-lis is an ancient symbol, originally used by Baden-Powell for the enlisted scouts of the British Army and subsequently adopted and modified for the Scout Movement. The arrowhead represents the North point on a compass, and is intended to point Scouts on the path to service and unity. The th ...

Crystal Scouts: Encyclopedia II - Robert Baden-Powell 1st Baron Baden-Powell - Return to England

On his return, Baden-Powell found that his military training manual "Aids to Scouting" had become something of a best-seller, and was being used by teachers and youth organizations. Following a meeting with the founder of the Boys' Brigade, Sir William Alexander Smith, Baden-Powell decided to re-write Aids to Scouting to suit a youth readership, and in 1907 held a camp on Brownsea Island for 22 boys of mixed social background to test out some of his ideas. Scouting for Boys was subsequently published in 1908 in six installments ...

Crystal Scouts: Encyclopedia II - Robert Baden-Powell 1st Baron Baden-Powell - World War I and later events

On the outbreak of World War I in 1914, Baden-Powell put himself at the disposal of the War Office. No command, however, was given him, for, as Lord Kitchener said: "he could lay his hand on several competent divisional generals but could find no one who could carry on the invaluable work of the Boy Scouts." It was widely rumored that Baden-Powell was engaged in spying, and intelligence officers took great care to foster and inculcate the myth. Baden-Powell and his wife moved to Pax Hill near Bentley, Hampshire, a ...

Crystal Scouts: Encyclopedia II - Robert Baden-Powell 1st Baron Baden-Powell - Early life

Baden-Powell was born in Paddington in London in 1857. He was the sixth of eight sons among ten children of a Savilian professor of geometry at Oxford University. In the family and to his friends he was known as Stephe (rhymes with Livy).

Crystal Scouts: Encyclopedia II - Crystal radio receiver - Composition

A crystal set is the simplest radio receiver, consisting of a long-wire antenna, a tuner to select the desired radio signal by frequency, and a detector consisting of a diode demodulator usually consisting of a sharp wire or pin pressing against a sensitive point on a galena mineral crystal in a holder. A semiconductive mineral crystal, usually lead sulfide (galena) or cadmium sulfide is fixed inside a brass cup and the radio operator finds the loudest signal by touching the wire, called a "cat's whisker", to various points on ...

In 1876, Baden-Powell joined the 13th Hussars in India. In 1895 he held special service in Africa and returned to India in 1897 to command the 5th Dragoon Guards. Baden-Powell enhanced and honed his Scouting skills amidst the Zulu tribesmen in the early 1880s in the Natal province of South Africa, where his regiment had been posted, and where he was mentioned in dispatches. During one of his dispatches, he came across a large string of wooden beads, worn by the Zulu king Dinizulu, which was later incorporated into the Wood Badg ...

Tim Jeal's work, researched over five years, was published by Yale University Press and well-reviewed by the New York Times, the Washington Post and other publications of record. Along with many other pieces of evidence for his contention, Jeal mentions as illustrative an episode which occurred in November 1919.

Crystal Scouts: Encyclopedia II - Witches 5 - Tellu

The third member of the Witches 5, she is named for the mineral tellurite. Tellu is voiced by Chieko Honda in Japanese, Kirsten Bishop in English (Telulu), Norma Echeverria in Spanish, and Donatella Fanfani in Italian. After Tellu got Mimete out of the way, she was assigned the task of gathering heart crystals, which she does so by opening a flower shop and giving away beautiful plants that would later wrestle heart crystals out of their owners. Tellu would then capture the ...

"Seed Bead" is a generic term for any small bead. Usually rounded in shape, seed beads are most commonly used for loom and off-loom bead weaving. They may be used for simple stringing, or as spacers between other beads in jewelry. Larger seed beads are used in various fiber crafts for embellishment, or crochet with fiber or wire.
