All great workers have a list of colleagues they can turn to for references during a job hunt. These trusted coworkers and advisors have seen you at your best and worst, giving them an unbiased approach when having to discuss your traits with hiring companies. That being said, references are no longer welcome on most resumes.
When Should You Include Professional References in a Government & Military Resume
The practice of cutting off professional references in a government & military resume began when companies started to realize how unnecessary the practice can be. They want more information on the applicants, not space taken up by information they will request further along the interview process.
Even so, there are still some companies that demand this section, and if that's the case, you need to have it on your resume. However, if they don't, but you've forged a strong relationship with a well-known, highly regarded government or military official whose name would virtually guarantee you an interview, it's smart to include the person on your resume.
How to Include Professional References in a Government & Military Resume
Should you decide to include references in a government & military resume, there are still a few rules to follow. First, this information is the absolute last section on your resume or should be put on a separate piece of paper. Do not go with a simple "References Available Upon Request." Secondly, make sure you have the necessary information. This includes name, title, company, address, phone number and email.
Example of Professional References in a Government & Military Resume
Cpl Carter M Brown
Tips for Providing Professional References to a Hiring Manager
- First, decide on the specializations the references should have, then consider their ranks. Just as you want to specialize your resume to fit the needs of the hiring company, you want to specialize your references so that you make as much of an impression on the hiring manager as possible.
- Don't keep your references in the dark about your goals. Share with them your resume and anything else they should know. This ensures that should they be called, they'll have very specific talking points in regards to the skills and abilities the job you're applying for requires.
- Coach those that need help. Some of your references may be eager to help but clueless in terms of what to do. Be available to talk to them and answer questions. Send them a list of common topics that may come up.
- Never assume your colleagues can serve as references. They have lives outside of work and may not have the time necessary to prepare for a reference interview.
- Always choose references that will complement the job you're going for. If you want a position as a Contract Specialist, find references that are fellow contract specialists, senior contractors and acquisition specialists.
References are only as enticing as the resume they are featured on. If you truly want to impress a hiring manager, you need MyPerfectResume's Resume Builder to help you create a standout resume in only minutes.

The Smashing Pumpkins Take on the 1990s
The Smashing Pumpkins are indisputably one of the great bands of the 1990s. Though they have gone through numerous line-up changed (they've had seventeen members throughout their history) their music has remained consistently good.
That's thanks in large part to front man and songwriter Billy Corgan, who is as pointed and revealing in his songs as he is when discussing his contemporaries.
Billy on Kurt Cobain – Billy flat out said that he and Kurt were the top two alternative songwriters of their time. 'Anybody else is a distant third.' He really admired Kurt's ability and Kurt was one of the few people who could make Billy jealous through his greatness. Billy figured there were ten amazing Nirvana songs, which he love. Oh yeah, and Kurt did steal his girlfriend.
Billy on Courtney Love – Bill saw a photo of a young Courtney Love and said 'I need to meet this girl.' He called her label and arranged for her to stay at his apartment when she came through town. Not surprisingly, a romantic relationship developed. Billy called a young Courtney 'a typhoon' and he eventually had to throw her out of his apartment. She moved onto a 'bigger fish', her future husband Kurt Cobain. Billy and Courtney have publicly feuded over the years, but he called her a ground-breaker and one of the undervalued musician. Still, Billy admitted that he stopped making hits when he stopped writing about Courtney and Courtney stopped making hits when he (Billy) stopped writing her songs.
The Foo Fighters – Billy was surprised that Courtney recently made up with former Nirvana drummer and current Foo Fighters front man Dave Grohl. Billy felt that Dave isa great musicians, but the Foo Fighters have not 'evolved' since their earliest days. Billy puts his life on the line to make new and different music, and the Fighters don't seem to do it for him.
Billy on Pearl Jam – The act that really bore the brunt of Billy's criticism was Pearl Jam. Robin asked if Billy would rank them up with Nirvana and the Smashing Pumpkins – Billy said 'not even close'. Pearl Jam, according to Billy, are 'derivative' and it's 'hard to say' whether or not their songs will stand the test of time. 'I don't think they have the songs,' Billy said. 'You can't stack them up against my songs and Cobain's songs.'
Billy on Celine Dion – The Pumpkins were up for a bunch of Grammy Awards one year and they didn't win – it finally got down to album of the year and Celine Dion took home the prize. She brought twelve producers onstage and proceeded to thank 'the little people'. Billy was disgusted.
The Pumpkins are still going strong, even if Billy is the last original member, and they performed three great songs for us: A cover of David Bowie's 'Fame', their classic 'Zero', and a brand new track 'One and All (We Are)' from their new album 'Monuments to an Elegy', which you should check out. Hey, Tommy Lee plays the drums!

Star Wars: The Clone Wars Season 3 – Trailer
I may not be the biggest fan of the extended universe of Star Wars, but I do enjoy a few of the novels and comics that have come and gone. I've always been one of the people who thought that the new trilogy wasn't as bad as everyone else thinks, and to punctuate this point I always point to The Clone Wars cartoons for the naysayers.
From the LucasFilm PR:
Mystery, intrigue and adventure await our heroes with all-new action-packed episodes of Star Wars: The Clone Wars. As war continues to rage throughout the galaxy, the dark side grows even stronger and the Jedi Knights are pushed to the breaking point. The lines between good and evil become blurred as secrets are revealed, truths are questioned and alliances are betrayed. Loyalties are tested as new enemies emerge and heroes rise – and fall.
I'm not gonna lie, I'm excited to see what happens this season. These shows have really been the saving grace for the company to alot of geeks out there. The new season starts on Friday Sept. 19 at 9 PM, when they will have a one-hour event on Cartoon Network.

An ideal awning care includes cleaning, impregnation and correct storage. Maintaining an awning properly, can significantly increase its durability. Here we provide the most important instructions on how to care for your awning after a trip to avoid mildew stains or mold infestation.
1. Drying
The alpha and omega of awning care is the drying. The awning shouldn´t only be dried when it is stored, but also during the trip. Residual moisture can lead to mold stains and mildew within a short period of time. Therefore, it should always be packed in a dry condition. If the awning has to be packed wet, it is recommended to rebuild it or hang it up for drying within the next 12 hours.
2. Cleaning & Impregnating
You can check our article Clean your awning: This is how it´s done! to get some advice on how to clean your awning properly. Hereafter we provide a short overview on the most important information about the cleaning and impregnation process:
The miracle cure: lukewarm water & soft brush
Basically a cloth or a soft brush and lukewarm water are sufficient for regular cleaning. For stubborn stains, use a gentle detergent or a special tent cleaner that does not attack the coating. There are special cleaners for infestation of mould fungi, green coverings or mildew stains.
Only on uncoated fabric vinegar cleaner can be used.
If aggressive cleaner have been used, it is often advisable to impregnate the awning again, if it is coated. The tent must be dry before impregnating it and then completely dried again afterwards (do not rinse it again!).
Our GentleTent awnings are made of high-quality TenCate or Polycotton material, which makes them already fungicidal and dirt & moisture repellent. Warm water and a cloth are therefore sufficient for the regular cleaning. For stronger stains, use cleaning & impregnating agents tested by TenCate, e.g. Isaclean, 123products, HG, or Ultramar.
2. The ideal storage
Before being stored, the whole awning has to be completely dried, then it may be stored for a longer period of time. A tent should be stored correctly in a dry, well-ventilated room. It is best to pack it in a cotton bag, whereby the poles and all other accessories should be packed separately, to prevent damage.
Most of the producers provide instructions of how to fold and store the tent properly. It is therefore recommendable to follow these instructions.
Tip: If plastic-tent-windows would lie on each other after the tent was folded, paper or cotton sheets should be put in between to prevent the windows from sticking to each other.
3. Further tips & tricks for maintaining your awning
- Control: If the tent is not used for a longer time, it should be unpacked an controlled on mold, stains or humidity every 6 months. The earlier damages can be found, the easier they can be removed. This should especially be done for the case of a not 100% dry and little ventilated storage room.
- Seam sealing: Seam sealers offer, as the name suggests, a waterproof seal for tent seams. Depending on the intensity of use of the awning, seam sealant can be applied to the seams with a brush or sponge every 2-3 years to increase their durability.
- Zips/zippers: Slip sprays are non-greasy slip & release sprays that reduce friction resistance and are therefore a miracle cure for zippers, for easier insertion into keder strips and much more.
- Professional tent cleaning: If you want to be on the safe side when it comes to cleaning awnings, you can also opt for professional tent cleaning. The costs for this depend on the size of the tent (m²), the fabric, the colour and the type of the stain. It must be calculated with +/- 20€/m².

Example English Literature Essay The Theme of Isolation in Jane Eyre and Wide Sargasso Sea
Compare and contrast the ways in which the writers presentthe theme of isolation to construct the characters of Rochester, Jane andAntoinette in "Jane Eyre" and "Wide Sargasso Sea".
The theme of isolation is utilisedin English literature to shape the principal characters and provide aparticular vision on some crucial aspects of their identities. The aim of thisessay is to compare and contrast the ways, in which Charlotte Bronte and JeanRhys interpret the theme of isolation to construct such characters as Rochesterand Jane from the novel Jane Eyre and Antoinette from Wide SargassoSea. In these literary works the ideas of isolation are presented as adirect result of characters' loneliness that they have experienced since earlychildhood, thus the writers apply both to social and inner isolation. Thereality, in which these people live, is so harsh that they isolate themselvesfrom the rest of the world. Such alienation is a complex psychological disorderthat influences the formation of characters' identities. Isolation results in theexpulsion of a person from all social affairs and interactions, preventinghim/her to become a full member of society. Although Jean Rhys utilises the similaridea of isolation as Bronte's narration, she provides her own interpretation ofthis issue. Contrary to Bronte, the writer considers that madness of a woman isnot innate, but rather is a consequence of the injured self that is formed in aperson because of isolation and oppression. In this regard, isolation isperceived by characters as a certain rescue that seems to save them for a timebeing, but, in fact, it gradually destroys these protagonists. The fact is thatthe identity of a person is created through certain social and culturalinteractions with people, but isolation deprives him/her of acquiring the completenessof identity.
Jane Eyre and Antoinette Cosway,the principal female characters of Jane Eyre and Wide Sargasso Sea,are portrayed as entirely isolated personalities who, despite the differentbackground and different living conditions, experience similar loneliness anddespair. Jane is a little orphan who is treated cruelly by her aunt and who isisolated from the rest of the household. When Jane is sent into LowoodInstitution, her isolation is aggravated; she is transformed into a reserved andserious woman with low self-esteem and lack of hopes. Similar to Jane,Antoinette's isolation starts at home and continues in the nunnery, influencingher identity. She spends almost all time in the room and close people regardher as mad, although she acts in a rather normal way. But, contrary to Jane, suchprolonged isolation results in more complex psychological destruction andfurther madness of Antoinette. As she claims at the beginning of thenarration, no one came near us. I got used to a solitary life (Rhys 18). Noone notices her and her family; instead people betray her trust and hopes. Antoinette'sisolation in childhood shapes her personality, negatively influencing her adultlife and relations with people. This vulnerable and emotionally destroyed womanlives in her own created world, and when Rochester, a person whom she loves,alienates from her, she can no longer endure this isolation. Antoinette seekslove and attention, but her own husband fails to understand her.
Rhys reveals that Rochester'sisolation can't be explained by his severity; instead he is portrayed as adestroyed personality who is forced to marry a person chosen by his family andwho has to live in a place alien to him. Antoinette regards Rochester'salienation as his inability to accept something that is different from hiswell-ordered life and habits. As a result of Rochester's alienation, hisattitude to Antoinette is sometimes negative, and gradually, she is transformedinto a mad female, like her own mother, but Rhys opposes to the view thatAntoinette inherits this madness from her mother. Instead, throughout thenarration she stresses on the fact that isolation inevitably brings a woman tothis psychological disorder. Antoinette's mind is split and she flees into thepast, isolating herself not only from the outside world, but also from herpresent life. Such isolation appears to be really dangerous for such asensitive woman, and, as Coral Howells puts it, Antoinette's moment ofauthenticity is also the moment of her destruction (121). In pursuit ofescaping this isolation, Antoinette commits a suicide.
Thus, Antoinette fails to eliminatethe negative emotions and feelings that are evoked by her loneliness andisolation. Although Jane Eyre also experiences anger and scorn towards herrelatives, she manages to destroy these emotions. Unlike Antoinette, this youngwoman who feels isolation since childhood meets a person who experiences thesame loneliness, and falls in love with him. This powerful feeling saves herfrom despair and finally destroys her isolation, she no longer wants toalienate from people, and especially from Rochester. The relations between Janeand Rochester differ from the relations between Rochester and Antoinette; inthe case of Bronte's narration both characters destroy their isolation and findnecessary strength in each other, they are identical in many ways and areunable to live apart. As Jane claims, I am mot talking to you now through themedium of custom, conventionalities or even of mortal flesh; - it is my spiritthat addresses your spirit equal, - as we are! (Bronte 238). Rochester'swives have really traumatic past that is aggravated by their isolation, butthey respond differently to it. Although Jane loses her parents and isconstantly ignored by society, her isolation helps her to develop some skillsthat provide her with necessary strength and allow her to overcome negativefeelings. She becomes a mature young woman who possesses own viewpoints and whois able to evoke powerful feelings in another person. Jane expresses her dreamsand loneliness in her beautiful drawings that allow her to successfully copewith her isolation. When Jane learns about Rochester's wife, she decides toisolate herself from him, but finally she feels that he needs her and returnsto him. Being an orphan, Jane understands that she has nobody to rely on, andshe learns to rely only on herself. Contrary to Jane, Antoinette lives with hermother at the beginning, but she is alienated from her, because her mother isattached only to her brother, and when she loses him, she is destroyed.

I know it's been a while, but the Stunner had to handle some school business. Yep Exams are over and I'm in the homestretch now. The coursework grades are good and I feel as if I passed the exams. So it's almost over now, just the damn Major Project standing in my way of absolute freedom from that university! I am so happy to be finished with school...well at least for now. The only thing I'll miss are those sexy ass girls especially the ones in Leon's class hehehehe.
Now it's time to get my social life back on track, and considering my somewhat recently unfortunately acquired single status (I won't get into that as my heart is still broken) I have a lot of work to do! So watch out ladies the Stunner is on the prowl and he wants you!
I have settled in to my new apartment pretty well, and in good time. Well I had to settle in quickly as I had exams just a few weeks after moving. I got my internet within a week of moving, but it wasn't used much as I was logging on mostly to my books. I unpacked the last box of books unto my bookshelf yesterday and cooked my first big cooking today. Want to know what Chef Stannerboyarde cooked? Well I made a serious beef lasagna with cheddar, mozzarella and Parmesan cheese, steamed string beans, carrots and tin corn in my special butter sauce and some fruit punch to wash it down. See ladies, the Stunner can take care of you! Now I just need to buy a few frames to put up my drawings and photos and a few more little things to set up my bachelor pad! Now hopefully the next time I tell you I'm moving, I'll be moving into my own palace!
For some time now my TV has been showing signs of aging, the picture quality was diminishing and considering I had fixed it once before I decided it was time to upgrade. So to prepare for the idleness that would follow the ending of my studies, I got myself a new TV. I traded in my old 20 inch traditional TV to a 27 inch flat screen, and let me tell you, Serena's ass has never looked bigger! I don't feel bad splurging on the new TV as the old one was donated to me by sister some 5+ years ago when I moved out on my own. And after all a man has got to enjoy some fruits of his labour! Also I got a DVD play as a present, so you know di I inna business!
Don't worry I wont become a cholesterol filled, lazy, blog of a couch potato. I plan to hit the parties and shake my two left feet with the ladies and also I have decided to explore this beautiful country and capture it's breathtaking scenes with my camera. So you'll get my party reviews here and my photos on my photoblog! Also I have only one month to get the official 2007 Summer Body so I can hit the beach, so I have a lot to keep me occupied this summer.
Well enough about me in one post! I have to save some for the other posts. Mi gone find out what you have been up to!

Blended Learning is an education program where the student learns in part through online delivery of content and in part in a classroom ("brick and mortar") setting. Differentiated Instructions is a teaching methodology where students with different learning abilities are given opportunities to learn at their own pace.
Hence the action research on this topic will help formulate a blended learning environment to deliver differentiated instructions and resources to students. Students will be able to learn at their own pace, place and time. This personalised teaching/learning will also help them become independent learners, responsible for their own learning. It will also cater to visual and auditory learners.
In her Action Research, she is using the "Flipped Class room" model of Blended Learning where students learn the content online through videos, related links, worksheets etc., and come prepared for the class the following day to complete the numericals and proofs on the same topic.
2. Ms.Rajalakshmi – Math Teacher Class 6,7,8
Ms. Rajalakshmi, is involved in the GTA project to optimise teaching, understand the hindering variables between teaching and learning, measure the variables, analyse them, and arrive at tangible results to maximise the imparting of learning objective. Her research topic is "Dispelling misconceptions in integers to maximise learning in class 6". The purpose of this endeavour is to gain an insight into the causes of misconceptions in this topic and to enable the students to come up with individual learning strategies. She has chosen class 6 as her interest group as this is the level where students learn the basic concepts of integers and build it thereafter. The main objective of her study is to adopt a student centric approach to learning.
3. Ms. Sivagamasundari – Math teacher Class 8,9
Ms. Sivakamasundari is implementing an Action Research Project in Class VIII. With the intent of bringing innovations in the Math class, the project aims to help students overcome their fear of abstract algebraic concepts and retain algebraic identities with ease. The students are given opportunities to connect with prior learning, visualise identities using algebraic tiles and engage in activities which facilitate understanding. Understanding the logic behind algebraic concepts and relating it to geometry aids recollection. Students are also encouraged to use website links in the form of games and work sheets.
Class room activities include videos for the visual learner, hands-on activity for the kinaesthetic learner and interactive smart board lessons for both types of learners. This project is also an opportunity for the teacher and student to benefit from teaching strategies being practised across the globe.
4. Ms.Viji Arunkumar– Social Studies teacher Class 4,5
The CHSV Social Studies curriculum under Anveshna is shifting focus from content centered instruction to learner based instruction. With this as the primary objective, Ms.Viji's Action Research aims at using technology as a VAK tool to enhance interest in Social Studies at the upper primary level. As students today are tech savvy, a technology-driven pedagogical approach should perk their interest and encourage them to take a deep dive into the subject. With technology advancements, they will be in a better position to leverage technology to gain more knowledge about the global community.

The Cheapest New SUVs You Can Buy in Every Segment
Not all new SUVs have to break the bank
It's no secret that SUVs have gotten expensive, especially if you want the latest features and technology. A fully loaded Honda CR-V, for example, now costs more than $37,000. As for a top-of-the-line Chevrolet Suburban, that's more than $80,000. But if you're on a budget and need a new SUV that won't completely break the bank, you still have options. And if you have a little extra to spend, you may be surprised how inexpensive some luxury SUVs can be.
So we put together a list of the least-expensive SUVs you can buy today (destination charges are included in the prices). Since different people have different needs, we broke this list down by segment and included both mainstream and luxury examples.
Subcompact SUVs
Nissan Kicks - $19,685
The Kicks may not come with all-wheel drive or an engine that makes more than 125 hp, but as we found in our First Test, it's a surprisingly good car. And with a base price that slides in right under $20,000, it's about as affordable as crossovers get.
Hyundai Kona - $21,035
The Hyundai Kona's starting price may not be quite as low as the Kicks', but it's still far from expensive. You can also order the Kona with all-wheel drive and a more powerful engine if you can afford to spend a little more.
Subcompact Luxury SUVs
Infiniti QX30 - $31,245
The Infiniti QX30's low base price makes it surprisingly affordable for a luxury crossover, but the styling is anything but low-budget. It's a seriously good-ooking car that's also fun to drive.
Lexus UX - $33,025
Both the QX30 and Lexus UX bring plenty of style to the table, but the Lexus is the one you buy if you want to stand out. Its in-your-face styling is guaranteed not to get lost in a crowd.
Compact SUVs
Hyundai Tucson - $24,245
The Hyundai Tucson would benefit from a full redesign, but a recent update has definitely made it more competitive. Its low price and long warranty make the Tucson an even better deal.
Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross - $24,690
This isn't the Mitsubishi Eclipse you remember from the 1990s, and if you start adding options, the Eclipse Cross can get pretty pricey. But the base model still stands out on the road and costs less than $25,000.
Compact Luxury SUVs
Buick Envision - $33,190
Buick hasn't quite managed to shake its reputation as a brand for the elderly, but its latest attempts have included offering several affordable premium vehicles. The Envision, for example, starts well below $35,000.
Lincoln MKC - $34,990
We're not sure what's going to happen to the MKC's base price when Lincoln changes the name to the Corsair for 2020. For now, though, it's one of the few compact luxury crossovers you can buy for less than $35,000.
Midsize SUVs
Dodge Journey - $25,140
The Dodge Journey has been around for a long time, but it remains popular for two reasons: It offers a third row of seats, and it doesn't cost a lot of money. Room for seven for a little more than $25,000? That's not a bad deal.
Hyundai Santa Fe - $26,795
The Hyundai Santa Fe comes standard with a long list of features, but what really makes it such a good deal is its price. A base Santa Fe is only a little more expensive than the Journey, but if you don't need that third row, you get so much more car for your money.
Midsize Luxury SUVs
Lincoln Nautilus - $41,335
If you want a sports car disguised as an SUV, the Lincoln Nautilus probably isn't the vehicle for you. If you want a comfortable, good-looking SUV that offers a lot of features for your money, though, give this SUV a serious look.
Cadillac XT5 - $42,690
Like the Nautilus, the Cadillac XT5 isn't exactly sporty, but its comfortable ride and better-than-expected handling make it a nice choice for less than $45,000. If that's what you're looking for, you can't go wrong with the XT5.
Full-Size SUVs
Nissan Armada - $48,495
For some buyers, a car-based crossover with a turbocharged four-cylinder simply won't do. If you're one of those people, look no further than the Nissan Armada. It's a body-on-frame SUV with a naturally aspirated V-8 and a low starting price.
Chevrolet Tahoe - $49,790
Like the Nissan Armada, the Chevrolet Tahoe is a good, old-fashioned body-on-frame SUV. And while no one will argue that $50,000 makes it cheap, it's pretty affordable compared to other full-size SUVs.
Full-Size Luxury SUVs
Infiniti QX80 - $66,895
Do you like the Nissan Armada but wish it was more luxurious? Then the Infiniti QX80 is the SUV for you. It's pretty much an Armada that's been dressed up and given a new look. It's also way cheaper than a Range Rover.
Mercedes-Benz GLS - $71,145
There's a new Mercedes-Benz GLS on the way for 2020, but even though it's outdated, the current GLS has a distinction that few Mercedes-Benz models have earned. It's actually one of the least expensive models in the segment.

Now that I am no longer freaking out about half-face paralysis, time to start writing! I don't know if this is the right venue for this kind of stuff, but I think a lot. Also, what are people's opinions of Tumblr for blogging? I don't understand Tumblr at all...everything confuses me! But anyway...
Once upon a time, I wrote an undergraduate thesis. I know that the definition of a thesis can vary wildly across institutions, so I will clear that up, it was a major work that spanned two semesters of writing. Anyway, I refuse to believe that I wrote that beast to only be read by a handful of people. And so I decided to keep writing about my thesis and other things that interest me through blogging! And with Halloween coming up, is there a better time to talk about controlling images and stereotypes? I think not!
So what is the difference between a controlling image and a stereotype? Often, I think people almost exclusively use the term stereotype. We can point them out like the "fiery Latina," the "Dragon Lady," and the "Welfare Queen." But let's challenge language and stop referring to these (very real) depictions of WoC as stereotypes. Stereotypes is a word that does nothing to convey why these depictions are dangerous. "So what they are stereotypes?" people can say. "Everyone knows stereotypes aren't real depictions."
But that ignores the biggest problem with these images; the fact that they do not exist in a vacuum. Because if someone sees enough of these images depicted, one can start to forget that they aren't rooted in reality. More importantly, seeing these images can start to have real effects on how you view the actual people who are supposedly represented by these images. In the words of someone far smarter than me, these representations are dangerous because they have the ability to "guide behavior toward and from those persons, constrain what is seen and believed about them, and when internalized, profoundly influence the self-perceptions of the marginalized." (Beauboeuf-Lafontant, Behind the Mask of the Strong Black Woman)
I myself have experienced this peculiar phenomenon. Like when people imitate my speech and liberally sprinkle in the word "girlfriend" though I never use it in my actual speech. Or when someone exaggeratedly moves their head when mimicking angry!alwaysajayne. It is an incredibly interesting experience when you realize that your own personality doesn't matter at all, that people are capable of projecting a false personality onto you.
So let's call a spade a spade. The word "stereotype" doesn't capture the actual problem with these images, and let's be honest about that. I look forward to hopefully hearing other people's thoughts in comments, and please let me know how you felt about this post as far as being appropriate for this forum!

Yesterday's Birthday Blues quickly turned into Birthday Chills. Last week I spoke far too soon about the cold snap ending as some creepy Arctic wind is heading London's way again and unfortunately the first of the chill knocked its way into my head rendering it all foggy, clogged up and somewhat clouded. The brain is not fit to be processing say a Chekhov play, but it can just about plough through an array of fashion-related printed matter that in their own ways are trying to combat the notion of being overly fash-on. By the way that's not to insult any of these publications to say they can't equal Chekhov… or perhaps they wouldn't want to. I'll leave you to judge should you wish to support any of them with your parting of pennies…
Manzine – Issue IV (¬£3 Can be bought online here)
I'm a fan of stealing reading material from Steve be it Fantastic Man, Monocle or Fire & Knives (above ALL magazines, it's my favourite read at the moment – except it's about food so I can't chant about it here…). The latest steal was Manzine, edited by Kevin Braddock who recently explored the 'changing face of masculinity' in this article in the Guardian through the media landscape of mens' mags. I'm not sure I entirely agree with a whole sex being defined by the media trend epochs that sees the rise and fall of various men's mags but I did have a fun time thumbing through Manzine which doesn't really try to be aspirational and in fact tries very hard to be completely down to earth and being as ordinary as possible. A good old fashioned witty moan n' groan gives a helping hand… namely about topics such as cupcakes, people who answer the phone with 'Yellow' and how rugby is misunderstood by the world. It also extolls the delights of a donor kebab, bars of soap as opposed to gels and pits black pudding vs. scotch eggs which makes for a categorically British zine which I suppose Manzine doesn't pretend not to be. I also like the inclusion of a diverting short story on a separate leaflet that compels me to read it more so than if it has been integrated into the zine. I'm not sure why that is. I don't know what the sum of all these parts add to the dialogue about mags aimed at men and but it does pipe up as a levelled voice, an agenda-free zine that gives you a chuckle, not a didactic bible to follow.
Pamflet – Issue XI (¬£1.50 Can be bought online here)
I hearted Pamflet before but seeing as issue XI might be its printed last, it definitely needs another inclusion here. Wonder what it is with zines like Manzine and Pamflet and their love of Roman numerals but I do think both seem to hit the nail on the head in their rants-with-a-point-to-make (as opposed to the pointless rants that I get myself into, ending up without consequence or a point to be made). In its editorial letter, the Pamflet girls Anne-Marie and Phoebe pinpointed precisely what makes the rise of zines again relevant – that they're "focused on stuff we love and stuff we hate". No grand statement of intention or crusading spiel. Therefore we go onto to issue XI which gives its blessing to claddah rings, Jamie Hewlett's Tank Girl and exposed plasters on cuts/scrapes (a look I've rocked since the year dot due to my proneness to spontaneous bleeding…). Fashion wise, the issue delves deeper into their suspicion of 'trends' and everyone's right to be a bit vain and how consumption does not equal style – all obviously get positive yay points from me and are expressed ever so eloquently by the Pamflet troop of writers. These issues getting under Pamflet's skin aren't necessarily ones that everyone will relate to but then again, Pamflet never professed to be an all-rounder guiding beacon for dis-enfranchised women if ever such a thing exists or will exist. Still, Pamflet's gripes and points to make are ones that I personally nod my head to and I'm looking forward to their existence to live on as an updated blog as well as the possibility of a get-together London-based discussion salon which provides substantial basis for the gentlewomen's club that I was banging on about a while ago. Mind is cogitating…
Rubbish – Issue 2.5 (¬£9.99 Can be bought online here)
It's been quite gappy in between Rubbish's Volume 1 and 2 hardback annuals that I wouldn't even put in the magazine category. They've now compacted it down to an A3 sized cardboard covered issue that they've termed as issue two and a half. For those not familiar with Rubbish's previous issues will get a good taster from this one here themed around everything PLAYTIME. Rubbish is determined to get away from the po-faced and serious persona that fashion can sometimes take on and look upon the joys of it in as irreverant a way as possible. For this issue in particular, engaging with kids and their untainted sense of fun is what Rubbish have put forward be it getting six year olds to draw portraits of Henry Holland or getting them involved in shoots (totally legit and responsible as the kids are from modelling agencies…). The main subject this issue revolves around Lady Gaga and writer Jessica Brinton likens Gaga's attitude to dressing to childsplay dressing up hence why Sasha Sunshine has shot their favourite young friends getting creative with the contents of the under-sink cupboard.
"It got me thinking. Words and phrases like "trend," "must-haves," "it-bag," "best-dressed" and "star style" – the motifs of grown-up, modern fashion – suddenly seemed, not stepping stones on the road to fashion success, but prison bars designed to stop us releasing our inner Gaga."
This excerpt from the article DID indeed get me thinking. I'd agree so far as those terms that Brinton refers have increasingly become style prison bars but I'm not entirely sure everyone has an inner Gaga to be released or if releasing our inner Gaga is the ONLY solution to breaking those shackles.
In other fashion playtime antics, Henry Holland, Sibling and Holly Fulton dress salad ingredients up in mini outfits, photographer Venetia Dearden imagines a Back to the Future scenario in a photo shoot and Rubbish introduce the new work-out method of 'Voga' – emulating poses seen in magazines such as 'The Lacoste' or 'The Balmain'. I also like the inside of the mag which instead of a huge ad features Liberty prints, what Rubbish call the 'fabric of play' which I couldn't agree more considering how close they also look like the 'play clothes' that Maria makes up for those tuneful kids in Sound of Music.
Centrefold – Issue 6 (¬£7.50 Not available online alas but can be bought from Wardour News, Wardour Street, No-One, Magma and KK Outlet)
This one doesn't need so much explanatory text as it is basically a lush oversized visual fest created just to be gorged upon without the need for supplementary articles or extra chat. It's therefore not really reading material but there's much to be read into regarding the images that Centrefold have put together for this issue, guest-edited and curated by Daniel Baer (Studio Baer) and stylist Joanna Schlenzka with photographers such as Yelena Yemchuk, KT Auleta and Miguel Riveriego contributing. The richness of textures and stylistic periods evoked by the A/W 10-11 season is distilled quite nicely into the seven editorial stories in the issue which have a greater impact when printed on A-2 folded 150gsm paper chosen carefully from GF Smith. Its ode to colour balance, typography as well as styling and photography means Centrefold exploits the advantage of print more so than others, celebrating what can be done on paper that perhaps can't be replicated digitally.
(Photography by Yelena Yemchuk)
Without meaning to make an 'issue' out of 'plus' sized models, I do love this story by Johan Sandberg which matched with the styling, makes for an impactful story that doesn't make these models into freakish entities but rather takes advantage of their shape to showcase the clothes in a beautiful way – particularly the Shao Yen Chen cut-nylon white ensemble…
Winter knits still 100% relevant, especially the matching ensemble by Prada and a vintage Aran sweater painted by the stylist which is making me want to do the same…

This past week, I went with A and his class on their field trip to one of our city's historic cemeteries. I know what you maybe thinking…a cemetery, really? However, it's one of the coolest tours the kid's get to take in elementary school, and they learn so much about the history of our city. In addition to that the cemetery is beautiful a features some massive and enchanting magnolia trees.
A loves to learn about pretty much everything, so he enjoyed all the historical information about the settlers of our city, and how they played a part in what our city was and is. And I enjoyed seeing all the beautiful Spring trees.
We did a tour of one of the historical homes and then decided to not go on the bus tour, but instead A and I had popsicles in downtown Huntsville. It's rare that I have off work on days when the boys have field trips during the school years, so this was very special.
Oh and I wore this backpack and these shoes. The backpack can also be carried like a purse and I love it because it's comfortable, but also stylish. And the shoes are more comfortable than my Converse. Seriously. They have arch support and a bit of stretchiness in the toe that means I wore them all day and my feet didn't hurt, nor did they slip off my ankle. Amazing!

Prospects Of Emergency Aviation Development As Part Of The Civil Defence System In Croatia
Free (open access)
Paper DOI
604 kb
S. Steiner & V. Zagorec
Regarding the trend of globalisation and regionalisation and its impact on standardisation and establishment of a unique practice in emergency operations of protecting and rescuing people and assets in danger, as well as the strategic orientation of Croatia to equally participate in the integration projects – one of the necessary preconditions for that is the establishment of an adequate system of emergency aviation. The institutional and technical dimensions of such a system would not only indicate the recognition of the obligations taken on by Croatia but would be applicable in the general, practical sense. This paper defines the notion of emergency aviation and provides its classification – Search and Rescue, Emergency Medical Service, Fire-fighting; analyses its role in the system of civil defence; and argues for the establishment of the emergency aviation system in Croatia. Theoretical assumptions of its modelling are elaborated upon Keywords: emergency aviation, civil defence, search and rescue, emergency medical service, fire-fighting. 1 Introduction The concept and strategic planning of transport development, as well as adequate functioning of relevant public and social departments in Croatia, are based on the orientation towards the integration of Croatia and its equal participation in global and regional integration processes. The basic precondition is the harmonisation of the national regulations and manner of operations with the standardised model which ensures uniqueness of application at the international level.

A quiet dark stone
Broccoli Brown is a quiet dark stone colour that sits effortlessly alongside natural materials such as weathered wood or flagstone floors. Its muted quality makes it ideally suited to studies, where its reserved tone serves as the ideal backdrop, especially when taken over the ceiling as well as the walls.
A relaxed green- grey
Ash Grey has a relaxed feel that makes it suited to any space, particularly when combined with the slightly warmer Skimmed Milk White on woodwork. For a more modern look, try teaming with a lighter Snow White trim. The underlying green in this shade means that it will appear more intensely coloured in natural daylight and greyer in areas of low light.
A mid-tone off white
Skimmed Milk White is a mid-tone off white with extraordinary softness. Its laid-back nature creates rooms that feel as if they have been that colour forever, whether used on woodwork alongside a stronger wall colour, or on walls with a Snow White trim for a more contemporary feel.
A warm cream with a hint of orange
Orange Coloured White is a fresh yet warm cream particularly suited to north facing spaces. The addition of the merest amount of red pigment to this earth based neutral adds a delicate luminosity without feeling too creamy, creating delightfully warm rooms that appear to glow.
Sold Out
A fresh delicate white
Snow White is a wonderful alternative to a pure white, versatile enough to be used on woodwork and ceilings alongside any other colour. A tiny hint of yellow pigment is the secret to its warm and reflective nature, bouncing light around in even the darkest of spaces and creating rooms with a laid-back feel.
Recommended Primer & Undercoat: White & Light Tones
Complementary white: Skimmed Milk White

Uutta Helsinkiä Malmi Airfield Area Open for Development
The area in question is certainly large enough to accommodate all kinds of residential, commercial and public development. With over two kilometres in length and almost two kilometres in width, the area is roughly the size of 420 football fields.
Before any major development effort takes place, Malmi Airfield serves the citizens of Helsinki as a generous event venue, capable of hosting thousands and thousands of patrons. In addition, the City is willing to rent out properties and areas for a variety of purposes while it is understood that development will take decades to complete.
Eventually, there will be 13,500 apartments here. Once construction really gets going, the target is to add 400-600 new apartments every year.
The City is committed to building the necessary schools, daycare centres and also a dynamic urban centre for the new community. In the starting phase, residents can turn to nearby Malmi centre for their daily services.
There are plans to launch as many as ten different neighbourhoods here, with different themes and focus areas. Nallenrinne and Lentoasemakorttelit are the first two neighbourhoods that will enter the City's development pipeline.
The development will start from the southern part of the area, since the conserved real estate of the airfield – such as the terminal and the hangar dating back to the 1930's – are located there. New uses will be invented for the existing buildings and, also, new premises will be constructed in their vicinity, as the required infrastructure is already present.
In addition, the southern end of the Airfield features soil that is well-suited for construction, so it makes sense to start there. Some pre-construction efforts, such as the relocation of an old pipeline for natural gas, need to be undertaken before the actual residential construction can commence.
There are some existing neighbouring communities, located very close to the Airfield. In Tullivuori (southwest of the Airfield) and in Falkulla's Kiila area (northwest of the Airfield) the City is engaged in complementary construction that will, eventually, support also the community structure of the coming Malmi "Airtown".
Looking at the future of Malmi Airfield community, certainly one key element will be nature. The local "hidden pearl" is the Longinoja stream, on the western perimetre of the area, which is home for trout.

The MI US Select fund, within MPS, is a segregated mandate with an approximate 55/45 split between JPMorgan US Equity Income and Baillie Gifford American Growth. These mandates are not the exclusive US equity exposure in the portfolio, an allocation is also reserved for a passive holding, providing market exposure at extremely attractive rates. The JPM US Equity Income and Baillie Gifford management teams have been selected due to their excellence within their respective areas of the market, namely Value and Growth.
Value, as a strategy, is one we would associate with lower prices paid relative to the current level of earnings. The market might apply this discount for many reasons but will often be down to low expectations for earnings growth or a higher level of volatility around the earnings stream. Indeed, economically sensitive business such as banks, industrial and commodity businesses, will often find themselves lumped into the Value category for exactly these reasons. Upside rewards are on offer here, if stocks enjoy both earnings growth but also a positive rerating for those earnings. Conversely, and though no cycle is identical, Value is likely to struggle in a recessionary environment as the double whammy of an earnings collapse and a lower rating paid for those earnings can mean dramatic falls in share prices.
JPMorgan are currently widely invested in banks and energy where, provided the US avoids a recession, and the oil price remains reasonably firm, the two sectors should deliver a decent earnings performance and pay healthy dividends.
Growth as a style, will typically see managers buy business trading at higher ratings. This is because the market either has high confidence in a modest but consistent level of revenue growth, or because there is the potential for supernormal growth. A consumer staple business such as P&G would fall into the former camp whilst Netflix would fall into the latter.
Baillie Gifford are fully immersed in the US Technological and Biotechnological innovators that are changing the landscape regarding consumer, business and medical trends.
This style has been particularly in favour over recent years as concerns about banking fragility and high optimism about Technological disruption have dominated the investment narrative.
Which style will win out? This is a hard one to call, however, unlike many other investment houses we are unwilling to bet against Tech given the high valuations. Such a dogmatic stance will have cost clients dear. And, who knows, perhaps Amazon will be the only listed business left in the world in 10 years.
Our strategy is to split evenly between the two styles, with a little less in Baillie Gifford given their starker style positioning, letting stock selection do the talking. On that basis, and aided by the highly competitive charging structure, we are delighted to see the MI Select US fund outperforming its target index since initiation.

Homemade Natural remedies that works
So how to remove warts fast and easy? Grate some garlic, mix with a drop of honey and put on the wart, under the bend or towel. Do that until the disappearance of warts, every night, but not longer than 10-15 days.
How to remove warts, remedy
A fresh clove of garlic chop and put on the wart, but before that, smear the surrounding skin with unsalted pork fat or goose fat. Fasten the garlic with a patch. Change the garlic patch daily.
It is also possible to cover the skin around warts with the inner side of the banana peel and drop few drops of the garlic juice on the wart. A patch should be changed every day. Warts should disappear for 7-10 days.
This natural remedy is very suitable for the treatment of blisters. In these cases, garlic is usually fastened with a patch to the diseased place overnight.
Cure blisters with natural remedies, garlic
The most prominent anti-blisters agent is to put garlic on a diseased place, cover with gauze, and carry that way a few days. However, the practice has shown that this method sometimes leads to burns, and even roughening of blisters.
But there is another recipe, more complicated, which healed many people.
Roast a few cloves of garlic, make a porridge of them and mix with butter or cream in a ratio of 1: 2. Place this mixture in a diseased place for several days.
Instead of roasted garlic, you can put a patch of two parts of garlic cooked in milk.
Effective garlic remedy, to cure blisters
Make a juice of garlic and white lilies, take honey and white wax, every ingredient of 30 grams, and mix everything in a clay pot. Heat the mixture on the steam, mixing with a wooden spoon. With this agent, smear the blisters overnight.
