Testimonials from Our All-Stars My daughter is 12 and is starting her 4th year at the gym. Cheerleading is her passion and love and we have been very happy being a part of the Spirit family. One of the most wonderful things I have seen at the gym is the combination of what I am going to call the Four “S’s. Safety, Skills, Self-esteem, and Self-Discipline. I have always been impressed with the emphasis on safety training of the coaches, working in progression, and conditioning so the cheerleaders are ready for the season. I love that my daughter has been forced to develop self-discipline in prioritizing her time and energy to make sure homework is done and a few IMs to her friends have been sent, before we can go to practice. Most important, my daughter knows she is a skilled athlete and performer and that makes her feel great! She continually has progressed (2 levels in 3 years) in her skills and feel good about herself. To me, that is what every parent wishes for their child – Self Esteem. She enjoys working hard to gain more skills and the coaching staff has been ideal about helping her progress. We have had the joy of working with many coaches and we have been very pleased with all of them. My daughter was chosen as athlete of the week for our town paper and I wanted to share a quote that she used in the paper that completely came from her. Who would you like to thank? My family for giving their time and my coaches Idris and Jackie because they’ve always taught us everything they know and have encouraged us and had faith is us. I also wanted to thank my team because I was the youngest going onto the team and didn’t know anyone and they’ve been real supportive. I still remember the first time we went down to the gym in Woodbridge. Anna just turned 10 a few months before. I credit your program with helping my daughter become the woman she is today. I will always cherish my memories from there. You guys have a special place in my heart. Karen Tullock, mother of graduating senior Anna Ingrassia Our family is returning to Connecticut Spirit All Star Program (CT Spirit) following a short break and a family tragedy. My daughter, Amber, started with CT Spirit in 2003 when CT Spirit was located in Woodbridge, CT. At that time, Amber tried out and qualified for the Junior Black team. She was a cheerleader on the Junior Black Team for a couple of years; after that, she was a cheerleader on the Senior Silver Team for a few years. This year, Amber tried out and finished the season with the Diamond Team at their new location in Hamden, CT. As much as Amber enjoys being a part of CT Spirit, where safety is a key element in the Gym, being a competitive athlete, in a competitive sport, involves some risks. During this past season, Amber injured her shoulder at practice. She will take this summer off from cheerleading for a Bankart Lesion procedure. This surgical procedure will repair Amber’s torn Labrum which re-attaches the ligaments and cartilage in her shoulder. In spite of Amber surgery and a six month recovery period, Amber will return to the sport and to cheerleading at CT Spirit. She is looking forward to returning to the Diamond Team or hopefully qualifying for CT Spirit’s International Team for another competitive season in 2010. Whether Amber cheered on a CT Spirit team or she attended a CT Spirit function, both Amber and I have always had great respect and appreciation for CT Spirit All Stars’ program. In addition, we have high regard for the Owner, Robin Norko and for her ideology, vision and concern for the safety of her athletes. Robin is driven by teaching safe cheerleading techniques at CT Spirit. She believes in having respect for all persons; and she enforces respect among athletes, coaches and parents, alike. Through Robin’s leadership, she trains her coaches and athletes to compete safely and effectively, as well as encourage and motivate them to “bring home the first place trophy” at local, World and International competitions. The synergy in the Gym goes beyond the walls of CT Spirit. CT Spirit parents also find the time to embrace one another. Some parents take time to get together while our cheerleaders are at practice - getting ready for the next competition. We have gotten together with one another at membership gyms for a quick exercise workout, met for coffee, or even met for a quick social hour. There is so much to be said about the Connecticut Spirit All Stars program. CT Spirit has added value to our family and it has been a rewarding experience for both Amber and I. Amber and I have roomed together with other families at away competitions. We have shared excitement when our team “takes the floor” and does well; and we have also rallied together for encouragement and support when our team took the floor and failed to peak their performance. Amber and I are proud to a part of the Connecticut Spirit All Stars Gym. In fact, Amber makes a statement that speaks volumes of the synergy she embraces from the coaches and from the CT Spirit program. Amber leaves most practices, jumps into my car and reiterate, “I love cheerleading….cheerleading is my life”. Her consistent comment is heart-warming and it makes me happy because she is a 16 year young teenager whom, I know, is surrounded in a positive environment - loving life. My teenager is happy to be a part of CT Spirit. She enjoys the coaches and the rigorous practices. I attribute Amber’s happiness at the Gym to CT Spirit’s philosophy - the respect for one another and learning and perfecting an art with proper training and techniques taught by qualified and skills coaches. Thank you Connecticut Spirit All Stars. Frances and Amber Barnes

Content Layouts Joomla! provides plenty of flexibility when displaying your Web content. Whether you are using Joomla! for a blog site, news or a Web site for a company, you'll find one or more content styles to showcase your information. You can also change the style of content dynamically depending on your preferences. Joomla! calls how a page is laid out a layout. Use the guide below to understand which layouts are available and how you might use them. Content Joomla! makes it extremely easy to add and display content. All content is placed where your mainbody tag in your template is located. There are three main types of layouts available in Joomla! and all of them can be customised via parameters. The display and parameters are set in the Menu Item used to display the content your working on. You create these layouts by creating a Menu Item and choosing how you want the content to display. Blog Layout
Blog layout will show a listing of all Articles of the selected blog type (Section or Category) in the mainbody position of your template. It will give you the standard title, and Intro of each Article in that particular Category and/or Section. You can customise this layout via the use of the Preferences and Parameters, (See Article Parameters) this is done from the Menu not the Section Manager! Blog Archive Layout
A Blog Archive layout will give you a similar output of Articles as the normal Blog Display but will add, at the top, two drop down lists for month and year plus a search button to allow Users to search for all Archived Articles from a specific month and year. List Layout
Table layout will simply give you a tabular list of all the titles in that particular Section or Category. No Intro text will be displayed just the titles. You can set how many titles will be displayed in this table by Parameters. The table layout will also provide a filter Section so that Users can reorder, filter, and set how many titles are listed on a single page (up to 50) Wrapper Wrappers allow you to place stand alone applications and Third Party Web sites inside your Joomla! site. The content within a Wrapper appears within the primary content area defined by the "mainbody" tag and allows you to display their content as a part of your own site. A Wrapper will place an IFRAME into the content Section of your Web site and wrap your standard template navigation around it so it appears in the same way an Article would. Content Parameters The parameters for each layout type can be found on the right hand side of the editor boxes in the Menu Item configuration screen. The parameters available depend largely on what kind of layout you are configuring.

Support and Documentation Support Support for the Joomla! CMS can be found on several places. The best place to start would be the Joomla! Official Documentation Wiki. Here you can help yourself to the information that is regularly published and updated as Joomla! develops. There is much more to come too! Of course you should not forget the Help System of the CMS itself. On the topmenu in the Back-end Control panel you find the Help button which will provide you with lots of explanation on features. Another great place would of course be the Forum . On the Joomla! Forum you can find help and support from Community members as well as from Joomla! Core members and Working Group members. The forum contains a lot of information, FAQ's, just about anything you are looking for in terms of support. Two other resources for Support are the Joomla! Developer Site and the Joomla! Extensions Directory (JED). The Joomla! Developer Site provides lots of technical information for the experienced Developer as well as those new to Joomla! and development work in general. The JED whilst not a support site in the strictest sense has many of the Extensions that you will need as you develop your own Web site. The Joomla! Developers and Bug Squad members are regularly posting their blog reports about several topics such as programming techniques and security issues. Documentation Joomla! Documentation can of course be found on the Joomla! Official Documentation Wiki. You can find information for beginners, installation, upgrade, Frequently Asked Questions, developer topics, and a lot more. The Documentation Team helps oversee the wiki but you are invited to contribute content, as well. There are also books written about Joomla! You can find a listing of these books in the Joomla! Shop.
