Washington, DC (PRWEB) July 31, 2014
MilitaryOneClick and Influence Central team up to connect companies and large brand opportunities with the military community around the world. Jennifer Pilcher, Founder & CEO of MilitaryOneClick and Stacy DeBroff, Founder & CEO of Influence Central met over 3 years ago at the Inc. Magazine 500/5000 awards conference where DeBroff received an award for fastest-growing privately owned company. Since then, the two companies have worked towards this partnership with creating the first ever "Military Consumer Research Survey."
Research respondents included spouses of active duty and retired personnel, as well as Moms of military service members, with near equal representation from the U.S. Marine Corps, U.S. Army, U.S. Navy, and U.S Air Force. These findings shed new light on shopping behaviors, retail preferences, travel habits, and big-ticket purchasing decisions of military spouses and Moms – and revealed an array of insights on what motivates this demographic when making consumer choices. The survey consisted of questions specifically targeting over 25 Fortune 500 Companies such as; MetLife, USAA, Navy Federal, Wal-Mart, Target, Lowes, Home Depot, Toyota, Ford, GM, Amazon, La Quinta Inns & Suites, Marriott, Disney, Sprint, AT&T and more.
Highlights of the results:
According to DeBroff, "Influence Central has long known that Moms direct their families' purchasing decisions, but we've now gained new perspective into this powerful American consumer group – learning what resonates with military families and what most influences their consumer choices and brand affinities. To further illuminate the emerging strength of the military consumer, we teamed up with MilitaryOneClick to connect military families with brands, and we're excited to have a strong group of military influencers eager to engage with brands in social media campaigns."

Global Research, December 30, 2007
The assassination of Benazir Bhutto has created conditions which contribute to the ongoing destabilization and fragmentation of Pakistan as a Nation.
The process of US sponsored "regime change", which normally consists in the re-formation of a fresh proxy government under new leaders has been broken. Discredited in the eyes of Pakistani public opinion, General Pervez Musharaf cannot remain in the seat of political power. But at the same time, the fake elections supported by the "international community" scheduled for January …

Measurements:*Dimensions:17" x 15" x 10"
Rated 4.9 out of 5Â by 9 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Deed The Perfect Roll-on I love this bag. It's big enough to hold my 17" laptop in a special laptop/paper pocket, and plenty of clothes for the weekend. It's flat, so you can put another bag on top of it to roll it through the airport. It fits in the overhead bin on an airplane (except the tiny ones that even my backpack won't fit in). And there are a couple of zippers in the front and one on each side for small items you need to keep handy. The only problem is I'm afraid it's not going to be very sturdy for the long haul. I love it, though, and will not be checking it in. It's a little spendy for the size and quality, but the style and design are really ideal. I travel a lot, and this is my favorite carry on I've had. I've had it for a few months, and it's gone with me coast to coast a half dozen times. If you need a great carry-on you can stack another bag on, go for it. 5.8.2011
Rated 5 out of 5Â by becki Love it I bought the trip roller in the Desert color, which has the look of worn leather. This roller is made of sturdy fabic and has lots of room. I used it as a carry-on and it easily fit under the airplane seat (middle aisle) and in the overhead compartment. It held my clothes, computer, papers and lots of other stuff. I'll be using this for travel from now on! 5.18.2011
Rated 5 out of 5Â by stacydoolan when can I go away again! from the moment I saw this online I loved it.. I was worried about how it would feel so held off , but then saw it in the store and knew I had to get it.. it is perfect for a weekend getaway ( my reason for buying it) I am also a makeup artist and have used it to carry my kit a time or two.. LOVE this bag!! 11.6.2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Tigra Simply the best It`s a real pleasure to find that pic on the website is absolutely identical to its original. It was love at first sight but i still hesitated coz it seemed to be overpriced. Finally, after reading all those positive reviews, i decided to order the bag. So now, when i have it in my hands, i have no regrets and want to thank the freepeople team for a well-run work. 10.12.2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by pilili_pdp It is lovely It is bigger that I thought, so I am very pleased 7.10.2014
Rated 5 out of 5Â by laurak_williams Absolutely Perfect I have been thinking about this bag for awhile and finally decided that the reviews couldn't lie. It's true. This bag is wonderful. My only concern was that the fabric would be too flimsy and I would regret not getting a leather bag. I was relieved when I took it out of the box and it seemed like the fabric was coated (not shiny), and very durable. For reference, I got the earth / aubergine color, and the purple is a bit more vibrant than the photo, but otherwise looks exactly the same. Love it. Well done FP 6.24.2014
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Meggplant Great carry on bag! I got this bag in charcoal and it looks great! It held everything I needed for a long weekend and was easy to maneuver through the airport and fit perfectly in the overhead compartment. So glad I finally broke down and purchased this bag! It is pretty sturdy and seems like it will hold up well. 6.12.2014

MORE Tanzanians living in rural areas will now have access to banking services, starting next month from FINCA Tanzania.
FINCA Tanzania has received a banking licence from the Bank of Tanzania (BoT), making it the first microfinance institution to transform itself from a non-regulated entity into a microfinance company regulated by the central bank. FINCA Tanzania Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Mr Tom Koscis said the licence allows the financial institution to start offering savings products to the public.
"The licence by the central bank, allows us to accept deposits from the public and to carry out banking services as a microfinance institution, making this a historic event in Tanzania's financial sector," he explained. This is an important step toward financial inclusion as FINCA brings over 73,000 clients, mainly from rural areas of the country who do not have access to banking services.
"We are launching savings products that are easy to access, easy to operate and at no fee at all. We are also making it easy for our clients to open an account with minimal paper requirements and procedures they are only required to carry the IDs to our branches," Mr Koscis noted.
In addition to the current 25 branches countrywide, FINCA Tanzania is making progress with integrating mobile technology into the company's operations to improve access to services and efficiency.
"Over 20,000 of repayments transaction each month are cashless, using mobile money and development of alternative delivery channels will continue and extend to other areas, to make banking more accessible and affordable," he added.

Kristin Cavallari, Giuliana Rancic chit-chat childbirth on E!
Chicago's pair of reality star/celebrity hot moms/part-time Midwesterners are getting together to shoot the bull on an E! special airing Sunday evening.
North Shore quasi-celeb Kristin Cavallari reveals to E! correspondent Giuliana Rancic that Jay Cutler took a page from thousands of other involved fathers and was an active participant in his son's birth.
"'He held one of my legs!'" Cavallari, 26, told Rancic. "He was there!"
Cavallari apparently didn't want her fiancee to get such a good look at the miracle of life.
"'I was like, 'You're going to be behind me. You're not going to see anything,'" Cavallari she said in a video seen here. "'And the nurse was like, 'Oh, no, no. He's going to hold your leg. I was like, 'Oh, no he's not.' She was like, 'It's different when it's your own.'"
"E! Entertainment Special: Kristin Cavallari," her sit-down interview with Rancic, premiers at 9 p.m. CST Sunday, March 10. on E!. To read more about Cavallari's life with Cutler in Winnetka, check out this interview in the Sun-Times' Splash.

It's the most famous corkscrew in history. Now an electron microscope has captured the famous Watson-Crick double helix in all its glory, by imaging threads of DNA resting on a silicon bed of nails. The technique will let researchers see how proteins, RNA and other biomolecules interact with DNA.
The structure of DNA was originally discovered using X-ray crystallography. This involves X-rays scattering off atoms in crystallised arrays of DNA to form a complex pattern of dots on photographic film. Interpreting the images requires complex mathematics to figure out what crystal structure could give rise to the observed patterns.
The new images are much more obvious, as they are a direct picture of the DNA strands, albeit seen with electrons rather than X-ray photons. The trick used by Enzo di Fabrizio at the Italian Institute of Technology in Genoa, Italy, and his team was to snag DNA threads out of a dilute solution and lay them on a bed of nanoscopic silicon pillars.
The team developed a pattern of pillars that is extremely water-repellent, causing the moisture to evaporate quickly and leave behind strands of DNA stretched out and ready to view. The team also drilled tiny holes in the base of the nanopillar bed, through which they shone beams of electrons to make their high-resolution images. The results reveal the corkscrew thread of the DNA double helix, clearly visible. With this technique, researchers should be able to see how single molecules of DNA interact with other biomolecules.
DNA cords
But at present, the method only works with "cords" of DNA made up of six molecules wrapped around an seventh acting as a core. That's because the electron energies are high enough to break up a single DNA molecule.
Using more sensitive detectors that can respond to lower-energy electrons should soon allow the team to see individual double helices, and even unwound single strands of DNA. "With improved sample preparation and better imaging resolution, we could directly observe DNA at the level of single bases," says di Fabrizio.
Earlier this year a University College London team led by Bart Hoogenboom felt their way along individual strands of DNA using the Braille-like technique of atomic-force microscopy (doi.org/jvc). Like the Italian team, they were able to detect the twisting groove that separates the twin strands of the double helix.

It was a small, single-rotor aircraft of pod-and-boom configuration with a fully-enclosed bubble canopy that could seat three people side-by-side. Cicaré's previous helicopter designs had attracted the attention of the Argentine Air Force, which in 1974 contracted him to develop a light helicopter for training and also marketed for agricultural use. A prototype, registered LV-X62 flew in September 1976, and the Air Force placed an order for five pre-production machines. However, development was terminated at this point.

A time-dependent gas-phase absorption-desorption technique has been used to evaluate the isotope effect on the diffusive transport parameters of hydrogen isotopes in polycrystalline tungsten and the reduced activation ferritic-martensitic steel OPTIFER-IVb.Experiments have been run with both protium and deuterium obtaining their respective transport parameters of diffusivity (D), Sieverts' constant (Ks), the trap site density (Nt) and the trapping activation energy (Et). Isotope effects on these transport parameters are analysed and modelled. Because the classical isotope relation for diffusivity has not been fulfilled, quantum-statistical vibration theory has been applied to model the isotopic relation. The hydrogen vibration properties description in a metallic-host lattice allows deriving more accurate tritium transport parameters. A congruent isotopic variation of diffusion parameters related to the type of crystal structure, bcc, has been confirmed.

KLab architecture of Athens, Greece was recently assigned the challenging task of re-designing a house which was already in the midst of construction. Using ingenuity, the architects created House in Psychiko, a modern dream home built for a family of five.
Situated in a residential suburb of Athens, this five-story home was a vertically-driven concrete structure, typical of the neighborhood aesthetic. To avoid such a sterile, literal facade, the architects became creative with materials and design elements, adding a wooden-box balcony, framed windows, new openings and cantilevering across the volume. Another main priority was to enlarge the main living area, providing more conducive spaces for an active family lifestyle.
From the street perspective, the rich wood cladding contrasts the white building magnificently. Window openings vary in size and shape, creating immediate interest. In the evening, well-arranged accent lighting across the exterior presents a captivating architectural vision. The LED address light at the entry door is a particularly cool concept.
The living room, dining room and kitchen occupy the same floor. What's most intriguing about this fresh design is the seamless back-and-forth between inside and outdoor living. The same wood was utilized for the pergolas and expansive pool deck which lies flush with the living room's floor. Sliding glass doors built within all three exterior walls create an open-air, garden experience for family and friends to enjoy together. The views from within look out onto the rectangular swimming pool, trees and quaint backyard.
The narrow kitchen was extended with a fully glazed cube where a casual dining set resides. This particular addition is not only quite functional, but contributes another dimension of light into the dwelling–love this!
Contemporary furniture includes a large grey sectional, ottoman and bold red accent chairs set aside the geometric corner fireplace. The utilitarian bulbs on wire fixtures are amazing–especially the caged designs above the dining table. Light wood floors float across the room, leading up the winding, open staircase to the children's' bedrooms and baths. One level up from there is the master suite, with a home office and roof garden on the top floor. The basement level is ideal with a playroom, guest suite and laundry area.
Considering the architects were working with an already-defined footprint and structural skeleton, the House in Pyschiko is a resplendent example of a transformed modern dream home, rescued with a most impressive redesign.
