i just wanted to throw a uniform criticism out there...
well, im sorry to be "that guy" and i really dont mean to offend anyone but the incredulous stupidity of uniforms is blaring in my mind and i just need to vent
so here goes....allow me to show how ineffective uniforms are
1.uniforms do not promote not facilitate social equality
-i can tell the difference between a 6.99$ polo shirt and a 50.99$ polo shirt.....
-people will criticize others method of dress irregardless of the uniform and if that is impossible, they will degrade their pysical appearance
-uniorms dont idenify you with common traits of another student, they make you despise him because he reminds you of how idiotic what youre wearing is
2.uniforms do not promote discipline or "spirit"
-school spirit is nice, but being yelled at for insignifigant "inractions" that i was already aware of makes me fel incompotent and killed what little spirit i ever had
-treating people like they are incapable of dressing themselves makes them question both the intellegence of the system that is teaching them, destroying morale, and their own intelligence, which kills self esteem
-pestering people to tuck in their shirts is stupid....its a shirt it doesnt matter, and you just made that guy feel like an idiot
3.unifroms dont stop gang activity
- thats what tattos, hand gestures, colors, and slang are for.....gangs will exist always and a change of decent clothes to stupid clothes wont ever stop that
4.uniforms do not "prepare anyone or the real world"
-my jobs have never had a formal dress code, and sure some do, but they are the minority .....many jobs have free dress , so this statement is null isnt it
-college has no dress code so that doesnt apply there either
5.uniforms straight up look bad on people....i mean im a big guy, about 6'3 and 200 lbs and im nicely built but anytime i tuck in a polo shirt, i gain like 20 lbs , the same goes for slacks........its makes me more self aware that i look idiotic in them and untucking the shirt, solving the problem, gets me yelled at
6.uniforms do not promote academic welfare
-my intelligence and perseverance promote my academic study, not what im wearing nor does it distract others....(if you spend all day looking at some dudes lip ring, thats your creepy fetish, not everyones)
-i solely determine if i want to try to apply myself in school and i , the very smart person that i am, and about 2000 other people at my school feel underappraciated and insulted that we are told that what we think is irrelevant in the face of 100 administrators
-my uniform actually distracts me and inspires me to say screw you to learning because its not worth it
7.uniforms can be expensive for low income familes
-lets say you have 4 kids and you have to pay 100 dollars for each o them to have brand new clothes evry year, that gets expensive and then no matter how "equal" they allegedly make people, those kids will still be insulted becasue they couldnt afford more expensive uniform articles and other accesories
8.unifroms are plain uncomfortable
9.the way that uniforms are enforced are too adamant, too spartan, and plain way too retarded(no offence)
if you needed to make sure i was someone that you didnt know, then check my id, i can live with that, but if you know me im not putting it on, you know who i am , not am i tucking in my shirt just because you think youre better than me
10. uniforms make students ffel irrelevant in position to their admin....this is not so
all people are 70%water and 30% wasted metal, and theyre all equally dismal creatures....youre not better than me becasue of your age or your title or anything like that, were on the same level
.............theres a few more, but im tired, ill post the rest later
feel free to comment if you want, i just wanted to release a bit of hate in a free environment
You said it all. I opted out of my daughter wearing the uniform and we got SO much negativity because we wouldn't conform. It was actally quite an eye-opener and a big lesson in group pressure.
None of the things they tell you as good points about the uniform are true, as the OP has said here. The only thing that IS true is that it is faster to get dressed in the morning. Granted, but do you give up your options in life just for ease? If so, wouldn't it be easier just to let the army select a president? We wouldn't have to be bothered making an informed decision and voting. So much easier..."Surrender your lesser liberties and you shall soon surrender your larger ones, as well" Patrick Henry.
i aplaude your use of the opt out policy, that was very impressive of you, because i find that most parents have been brainwashed to believe in the "good" of the uniform and they wont hear otherwise, you are one of the exceptions to that realization, and that deserves some applauding, i say....
incidently youre liberty arguement is all the more impressive, and i appreciate your deliberation
I guess uniforms are not for everyone! Most of the kids I know love wearing uniforms. In fact, it was one of the reasons why they chose the high school they're attending.
Here, uniforms can only be bought at one store so everyone has the same quality of clothes. And it costs way more than $100... more like $700.
Some of the reasons these kids (including my daughter) like the uniforms are:
- nobody is judged by the type of clothing they're wearing (expensive or cheap, in style or out-of-style, etc.)
- a person is judged/accepted by their personality, not by their image
- don't have to worry about what you're going to wear every day
- they have "dress down" days every month, some twice a month (meaning you don't have to wear your uniform)
And yes, they're are "rules" that must be followed when wearing your uniform.
IMO, it should be up to the student if he/she wishes to attend a school that requires a uniform. I left it up to my daughter. It was her decision to wear a uniform.
One friend's daughter attends a high school that has no uniforms and it's getting ridiculous how these kids are pressured into having the same brand of clothing (even purses) and shoes. If you can't afford it, then you are labelled and considered an outcast. Is it any better???
i suppose i wouldnt really care about the uniform, no never mind i would but to a lesser degree, if they didnt shove it down your throat at every chance.....
700, damn , those must be some expensive clothes.......good god
the only problems are youll always be judged, and if im judged by my clothes the only thing anyone would ever think was "man if i screw with that guy, he'll kill he....everyones deluded about 14-18 year old kids it seems
with normal clothes, you can pick alternative styles to go with the contour of your physique....if everyone wears the same generic clothes then the skinny peolpe will look anorexic and the overweight people will look even more ridiculous......congradulations, you just got judged
go up to any kid now and theyll tell you all the same reasons that anyone ever mentions, but those arent there reasons, theyre just vomiting out the stuff the admin has wrongfully spoon fed them year after year
fashion.....screw fashion
id much rather wear what i feel comfortable in than be forced to remind myself how unattractive i think i am by putting on a uniform that has no bearing on academia
a school isnt a day care, is an academic institution, and if someone is bothering you then either
walk away......kill him(for the extremists).....or ignore him, dont adopt a uniform that makes 3000 people feel incompotent compared to the 20 admin that like the idea
utterly ridiculous..........
hmmmm, more of a rant than a reply, my apologies
Children's little minds are easily molded. They do
not have the maturity or life experience to see the concept behind the conformity thinking.
Personally I think it will be interesting to see if these uniformed children, who will be adults in charge when we are old, will force us into uniforms in our retirement communities? How will we like that? I'll be escaping over the fence in my walker, you can bet!
"- a person is judged/accepted by their personality, not by their image "
Not 100% true. Even though all kids may be wearing the same uniform, the "fit" of the clothing on their frame is not the same. This heightens opportunity for kids to compare how they each look in the same outfit and certainly heightens things that kids may want to hide such as breast development, pudgy tummy, etc.
IMHO, it is far better for children to wear clothing that fits well and is comfortable. This increases their self esteem which has a direct impact on self-image and the image projected to others.
For those who argue that children can be harsh re: designer labels, etc. Welcome to the Real World. Adults can be harsh, too, on many levels. I've dealt with my fair share of young twenty-somethings who think the world will come to an end because so-and-so doesn't think they're the greatest person ever. Grow up.
Children must be *taught* that judging others is wrong, and self-esteem should be based on personality and inner strength rather than the clothes on the body. Uniforms are a shallow and misdirected effort to compensate for the failure of people to grasp this concept.
I taught abroad and all the kids wore uniforms and it didn't seem to be a big deal. You could def see who had nice new uniforms that fit and who had hand me downs but that would have been the case either way.
Our children went to Catholic school and wore uniforms. The first year I bought three shirts and two jumpers for $100 which she wore for two years. I handed them down to a smaller girl and an older girl handed hers down to my daugher. They were very high quality and lasted for years. Now she is in public school and I can tell you a year's clothes cost me WAY more than $100.
Next year the oldest is going back to Catholic school and her uniform is khakis, required shirt sold at school $12 and blazer $30. I'm planning on buying 3 shirts and 2 blazers, she already has khakis. You can put a student in a uniform against the generic public school fare and more than likely the public school kid paid more for their clothes.
Beyond that I would rather have my daughter corrected for her uniform not being tidy than having to spend the day looking at cleavage, butt crack, navels, underwear, etc. that kids without uniforms are allowed to wear at school. Yikes!
perhaps the international spect is more relaxed toward subjects, unfortunately the us tends to blow them out of proportion
the thing is though that sure youll have to buy something new from time to time, and when it becomes possible leave it to the kids and their own funds to buy new clothes(no skin off your back), and if they tell you theyll die without a new 100$ shirt, well then obviously its a play
you dont have to have a fashion orgie everytime someone in your family wants to buy something, so the extra cost is little to negligient
besides id rather spend the 1000 extra dollars a year (with my money of course) than wear something that makes me look incompotent and pathetic.....its not a matter of money , its a matter of how little im going to do for the admin who think theyre better than me(who are sadly mistaken by the way)
the chief parental concern is money, but that concern can be rendered irrelevant by a simple premise, and then it boils down to the real problem
"why have this ineffective system that offers no value toward school at all in my face all the time-the answer, some people(administrators) went to school and got a degree in "making adolescent children feel like a waste-ology)
and if thats the only reason i have to dress like an idiot, to appease someones dejected taste in clothes and superiority, then i think maybe theyre the one with the problem and that the system that the crazy dude made up isnt in my best interest
It's interesting that the supporters of uniforms think they are just great - for somebody else to wear. If you really believe uniforms are less expensive, more democratic, make the wearer smarter and better behaved - then why aren't YOU wearing one? Oh, I see, because nobody is forcing you to do it. There is a word for that and it starts with H.
I'm not forced to wear a uniform but I have a type of clothes that I wear to work that I consider my uniform and then a certain type of clothes that I wear when I am out and about or volunteering at school that is different.
There are many types of jobs that require uniforms of sorts including business attire, medical scrubs, exercise gear, and actual company uniforms. When I taught overseas, I wore the school uniform every day and it was fine by me. My first two jobs (grocery store and hotel) required me to wear a uniform also not a big deal to me. If the company I work for now said- you have to wear a uniform I would without complaint. I consider myself more than the clothes I wear.
There are many positive aspects to kids wearing school approved uniforms. I support uniforms but I am not passionate at this point in my life. I have worked with kids all my adult life--now I am on a college campus. the girls uniform there is skin tight jeans & skin tight low necked shirts! I want to say at 9:00 AM every morning--this is not Sat night at the bar!! The male profs like it though.
To newgardenelf...
school uniforms and work uniforms are different matters
though in many way, not to mention that in exchange for your services in the workforce youre paid adequately...
besides remember for every job with a uniform there is one without
to debbimc
if for any reason a bit of skin has been incorporated in ones style(and i rather wish it wasnt most of the time) then a uniform wont obliterate that....in fact it will repeat the same exact thing out over and over making it more applicable
besides a simple dress code list or "no halter top" rule could knock some of the right out, so why a uniform......i doubt the alleged positives that people mention but never define
and like you said, college is a free environment, you paid 500 dollars for the class, so you can wear whatever you want to

Did not see the print edition.
The zombie-fied, lazy, poorly educated, hypnotized, shallow Americans who are sleeping through the wildly metastasticizing political cancer that is devouring our every Constitutionally endowed liberty and sealing this country's ruin.
It would be difficult to read this piece without infusing bias or emotion into the delivery. He does a marvelous job considering the text.
Not really a pivotal moment. The material was presented logically and progressively.
Make the time.
Read it and be prepared.

citric acid
am picking up my new w/d today. we have really hard water, and after reading about lemi-shine and citric acid, i have a question. i found the lemi-shine for dishwashers, but can't find the one for washers. is it the same stuff? if so, how much of the product and how often should it be used in my washing machine, and would it go directly in the tub, or just in the detergent dealiebob? i'm assuming one would use it in the machine-clean cycle. stop machine (if possible) and let it sit for a while like is recommended for dishwashers?
obviously my machine w/be new, so i'm not sure when to start using this. can't seem to find the small packages for washing machines, so i thought the dishwashing stuff would work the same....any thoughts or ideas?
also, if this lemi-shine works, would the straight citric acid powder work, like someone earlier alluded to? if so, i'm assuming one would use it in the same way as lemi-shine?
w/post my lg 2150 machine reviews soon!
thsnks, you guys!
I purchased Lemi Shine Machine Cleaner directly from Lemi Shine. I simply signed-up for their email offers via their website, and then when they offered free shipping (if you purchased a certain dollar amount) I stocked the various Lemi Shine products that I like.
@posskat, do you have Canadian Tire in your part of Canada? They have it.
Here is a link that might be useful: Lemi Shine - Canadian Tire
Big LemiShine fan here. I live in an area of really hard water too, and the product is amazing!
Washer directions are on the package, but yes, add it and let the machine sit with water in it for a while, then drain.
As to how often to use it, I'd follow the washer manufacturer's recommendation for cleaning.
Best of luck in finding it!
yes, there is a canadian tire here! duh! i was in the states and all i could find was the dishwasher powder, so i got that. i w/stop at canadian tire today--thanks for that! i didn't want my machine to even start to get the buildup, which i'm pretty sure is what reduced the cleaning power of my old machine....i'm using the machine now, and i need to get it more level, so the door won't swing open so much, as it's located in a hallway. vibration isn't too bad. so far am loving it! w/do a real review when i get a few miles on it.
Miele sells a washing machine descaler that's pure citric acid, according to the ingredient list.
@posskat, Calgon makes a product to prevent hard water buildup in washing machines. Not sure if it is available in North America but it is very popular in Europe. I get the impression that Lemi Shine or citric acid are to be used to remove buildup. If I had hard water (which I don't) I would rather use a product to prevent the buildup in the first place.

Midtown is pretty well-known for its education and culture. Personally, I don't think the community's culture, like its thriving art scene, would exist without the great educational institutions here. The Atlanta campus for the well-respected Savannah College of Art and Design is located here, as are the main campuses for the Georgia Institute of Technology and the John Marshall Law School. These schools attract a young student population that keeps the area trendy and innovative.

Anna Wintour @ Costume Institute Gala
Love It or Hate It? Anna Wintour's Costume Institute Gala Look
by Beauty
Like us on Facebook
Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour took fashion risks with her outfit at the Metropolitan Museum of Art Costume Institute Gala — bet Fab is going to have something to say about that! I was surprised to see that she changed her signature beauty look a bit, too. You don't need to be Miss Cleo to know that Anna would wear her hair in a bob, but she usually favors a neutral lip. Not this time; instead, raspberry-hued lips give her a feisty look. What do you think?

Pale straw-green; rich fruit salad and cream style; no shortage of flavour, ready now. Trophy Best '13 Verdelho, Swan Valley Wine Show '13.
Really exciting wine...the back story on this is that while in college I once found a few closeout cases of Swan Valley Verdelho in a random rundown corner shop liquor store...long story short, the stuff was delicious and it became our house wine for as long as the supply lasted! While traveling in Swan Valley some years later I was excited to taste this lovely bottle from Sittella and be transported back to my first discovery of Verdelho from Swan Valley. The region has a long history of producing the varietal but it was originally used for fortified wines like the ones of its ancestral home the island of Madeira. The multiple award winning 2013 Sittella Verdelho is dry, fresh and combines citrus flavors with richer, fleshier stone fruits and even some lush tropical notes. The wine is soft and generous in texture with gentle but pleasant acidity keeping it focused and long on the palate. Really worth checking out! Another stellar wine from Colby at Sittella.

According to E! News, the newly-wed Fergie and Josh Duhamel are starting their honeymoon in Dubai, before going away to an unknown island destination.
Gossip is also going around that Geri Halliwell and her boyfriend Nick House, who owns two nightclubs in London are planning to open a new nightclub in Dubai.
Last week, reports suggested that Lindsay Lohan and her partner DJ Sam Ronson were house hunting on the Palm island in Dubai.
Have you spotted any stars in the city recently?
2 Comments
i bet no one would complain if Fergie replaced Megan Fox in the next installment of Transformers
Recently with the opening of a mega city of the Dubai Palms where many of Hollywood most well know celebrities made an appearance Dubai has gained in popularity as well as attained the fancy of former Spice Girls member Geri Halliwell.
Geri Halliwell is reportedly planning to open a new nightclub in the desert city with the help of Nick House, a dating nightclub entrepreneur she is rumored to be currently dating.
I do not know whether at all the two are an item and how long will this business cum pleasure relationship last but from a purely business perspective Dubai makes very little sense to me. The real estate boom is gone and the ripples have shattered Dubai as well and then the city is very close to the terrorism capitals of the world.
SO now we know that Dubai has charmed celebrities for sure .

2 Candidate Interview Reviews Back to all InterviewsSort: Popular Date Difficulty
Store Manager Interview
The process took a day – interviewed at Bloomingdale's in February 2012.
Unfortunately the prescreening information somehow did not get through to the human resources department. I put my salary range being $110,000-130,000. This is a lower range than most of the jobs I am interviewing for but it is retail, so I didn't want to price myself out. I assumed my salary range was within the target for the job when I was solicited to come in for an interview. The more I was talking the person had to stop me from prattling on about the industry, trends in retail growth, etc and say "HOLD ON what in the world. I mean, do you have any idea what this job pays?" I referenced the pre-interview questionaire I filled out prior to obtaining an interview and said, "Well I'm assuming it is within that range." The response was, "um, this job pays $30 MAYBE $40,000. I am so sorry you have wasted your time. I have no idea how that happened." I thought it was very unprofessional. I really liked the people that I interviewed with though. I am not sure if it was just a computer glitch but that is not something that should happen.

Brilliant service and love the fact it's free postage
Since having my first facial, I have changed from using ordinary soap and water to the Bare Minerals Facial Cleanser and love it.
Excellent product, wouldn't change it
Best cleanser I've found! Can be used to wash off eye make-up which is great. Leaves my skin clean and soft.
Happy with product.
Absolutely love it!!! The smell is just amazing, like in a luxury spa treatment. Cleans skin very good, but gently as well.
I've been using this cleanser 3 weeks and I can definitely see a differnce in my skin , looking brighter and clearer , you only need a small amount so I would imagine it's gonna last ages .
This is the only cleanser I will use now. Great for sensitive skin. Removes waterproof mascara.
Foams well and mild enough for sensitive skin
As above. Will use this indefinitely.
I love this cleanser and have re-purchased it. It's quick, easy, rich foam and rinses off clean. The price is good compared to other brands.
Excellent product and really good price
amazing cleanser & I have sensitive skin :)
