How to Find a Better Job with an Amazing Architecture Portfolio
Is there anything better out there?
We all see the global unemployment numbers and wonder if we can ever afford to lose or leave our current jobs. We cling to the status quo for dear life fearing what might be out there waiting for us if we decide to look for something better.
While the unemployment numbers seem daunting there is actually high demand for good workers. The best firms in the world are in need of individuals to come in and be part of growing industries.
This is especially true in the global construction industry where architects, engineers, designers and other professionals are highly sought by the best firms in the world.
The catch is they aren't looking for just anybody. These firms want the best of the best. The issue for professionals is communicating their worth to firms.
If you feel you have something to offer and want to find a better job then creating an architecture portfolio is the first item to put on your priority list.
Here is how to create the type of portfolio that will win over those HR execs.
What Firms Want to See From Architects Today
You want to put yourself in the frame of mind of the firms you want to work for when creating your portfolio. This mindset takes you away from thinking about what you or other architects might enjoy seeing in a portfolio puts you in the person you're trying to win over – the hiring agent.
It's an obvious point, but an important one to remember early in the process.
Now, things have changed in the last few years. The Internet has changed the hiring process. The biggest change is access to information. Today, people have an immense amount of information at their fingertips.
Some see this as a deterrent when looking for new jobs. After all, hiring agents must have the ability to pick anyone they choose by doing a simple Internet search.
But the Internet is a great opportunity for you to really show your worth and get the ideal job.
Here are the modern tools you can use to show firms that you are exactly the person they need.
Creating Your Own Website Portfolio
There are a number of online portfolio collections and communities. These are great as part of your overall portfolio strategy, but it's not enough today.
Remember, employers are looking for top talent. It's relatively easy to create a resume on communities like LinkedIn and other architecture-type websites.
To stand out you need to put forth the extra effort to create your own website portfolio. Having your own website to showcase your work and experience gives you control over the platform. It also shows that you're willing to go beyond what the rest of the workforce is willing to do.
You have a few different options for creating your own website portfolio.
The first is to create a basic website with a basic design template. For around one hundred dollars you can purchase a domain and hosting. These will be annual costs. To keep costs low you can use a content management system such as WordPress, which is free, and use one of the many available free design templates.
The next step up will get you a semi-custom design template. These can cost a few hundred dollars more. There are templates that come with a cost, but they are very easy to alter on your own. They also come with support, which can be really handy when you have questions or issues.
The next step up will be a completely custom design, which can cost into the thousands of dollars, but will allow you to create the design that showcases your work exactly as you would like.
And that's a good question. How should you showcase your work on your own website?
Start by thinking about your website as your personal online salesperson. The task for the site is to sell you to potential employers.
Consider the most important information employers want to know about you just as if you were submitting a resume and going to an interview.
Include the following:
- Basic Information including contact information
- A few paragraphs about yourself including personal and professional stories
- Your work
Now, to expand on the idea of your work you'll have to show more than just the actual work. Employers want to see case studies. They want to read the story about the challenge you were presented with and your thought process to achieve success in the face of the challenge.
Remember, employers are investing in you. They want that investment to pay off. They want to see how you've helped others achieve success. They want to see how you can help solve their current problems or take them to another level of success.
Showcase the visual side of your work. That remains important, but the stories behind the work are just as important. People react to stories and it's something most people overlook as they search for jobs.
Low-Risk and Trial Work
Another point of difference to consider is allowing potential employers the opportunity to see what you can do on a specific project with little or no risk for them.
Think about it from the employer standpoint today; they need to find the best. It's expensive to hire new employees and when employees don't work out it's extremely costly and can set back the company especially for high positions.
You don't have to offer to do work for free, but you can offer to work on a trial basis where it's a money-back guarantee for the employer if things don't work out. You can work on a project just as you would normally and offer to accept payment should the company find the work satisfactory.
Now, this is likely going to be mostly small-scale projects. You don't want to invest long periods of time without a guarantee on your end, but again, this will set you apart from others without cheapening what you bring to the table.
Project-Based Employment
Project-based employment is more common today. Again, employers want low-risk options for employees. If you're willing to work project-to-project it eliminates some of the risk for the employer in the long run. They might even be willing to pay you more than they normally would if you were to accept a full-time position.
This approach has its positives and negatives. It's not a guarantee of long-term work, but you will have your own options available and if you remain one of the top candidates in the industry you'll find yourself always in demand with employers fighting each other for your services.
Traditional Elements That Remain Important
While creating your own website portfolio is an important way to earn a dream job today there are still classic concepts and strategies that will serve you well. Some may tell you these are out-of-date, but you can be sure that some of these concepts will never go out of style especially if the hiring agent has classic style.
Print Portfolios
Print has kind of been pushed aside, but there is still nothing like being able to touch something and see all the intricacies up close. Details, even though websites have come along way, are still ideal in print when it comes to items like photographs, drawings and other creations.
Print has never been cheap and it shouldn't be if you're looking to impress. It can cost several hundred and into the thousands of dollars to create a print portfolio that will win you the job you covet.
But if you compare yourself to others out there that will only create LinkedIn profiles you'll stand out if you take the time to send your print portfolio to the companies for which you wish to work.
Recent Projects
The concept of what have you done for me lately is timeless. People are interested in what you've done throughout your career, but it's important to have recent success and recent effort.
Whether it's your online portfolio or you printed portfolio you'll want to showcase your most recent case studies first. This requires frequent maintenance, but it's essential.
As projects and case studies become older you can retire the full details instead opting to include them as part of your story. Remember, people want to understand your story. When you write about yourself tell your entire story. Discuss your early struggles and how you fought through each challenge and each project to get to where you are today.
Project Layout and Design
A common question for those looking for jobs is how to present their projects and case studies. People want to know how they should design their portfolio.
The advice is basic, but relevant. Let the project, but the star instead of the portfolio. Let the colors of the images from your design be the main focus rather than making the website background or supporting elements the highlight.
Whether designing your website or print portfolio always use muted tones and minimal supplementary elements. Let the project images and feature sections stand out so employees can scan the portfolio as they determine where to start.
Promoting Your Portfolio
The final part of your portfolio is the art of promoting yourself. You can have a wonderful portfolio, but if nobody knows about it you'll never get your dream job.
Directories, Networking and Community Building
Earlier we spoke of online communities and directories. Use these to build your audiences. Websites like LinkedIn and other niche sites specific to the construction and design industry can be to your benefit.
Employers do search these sites when looking for the best potential workers. You can provide the most important information about yourself that will make you appealing with a quick glance. From each location link to your online portfolio so they can get just a hint of what you're about on the directory and find out the full amount on your own website.
Work to build your connections in the industry on community sites. The more connections you have the more potential for making a connection that will turn into a dream job. In the professional world it only takes one serendipitous moment to find happiness. Encourage these moments by building your networks.
Media and Public Relations
Another avenue available to anyone today is the media and public relations. Services like HARO are available that connection professionals and experts with reporters and other media sources. By building connections in the media and providing quotes and insight you can build your profile.
The more exposure you have the better chance you'll have to find the job you want. Potential employers are reading all the industry literature and they're watching many of the videos as well.
The Living Architecture Portfolio
The main take away from this article is that your architecture portfolio is a living, breathing being. You want to always keep it maintained and updated so potential employers can see the latest success case studies from your list of accomplishments.
An online portfolio is easier to manage in this nature. You have the opportunity to create your own website that you can frequently update and maintain. By keeping your own website you'll stand out as someone committed to excellent work and not just the most basic of work presentations.
What are your experiences with architecture portfolios?

Where is the center cabling box location for electrical windows right side
Problem: Right side windows can't control.
Usually this problem is the switches, but I confirm all the switches are good,
I can test them by a multimeter, both the center control switch in driver side
and the right passenge side switch are good. But I detect the same color
cable, some of them is broken. I understand the electrical diagram, I can
control the windows by direct use a battery to the cable connection, the
motor running and regulator can work.
someone know that, please tell me the location for all these type cable
collection or converge place.
The diagram image is only electrical working mechanism.
Thank you and Blessing~

The common problem area is the tunnel between the door and the body, the wires flex everytime the door is opened and closed eventually they break, so you then have to pull through new wires and solder and shrink wrap the connections, the main plug is normally located behind the drivers side kick panel and you will need light.
Thanks for the points, hope it goes well.
Thank you Tennisshoes, I will try to check it when the summer come, do you know any basic instrument can check the broke point? I just know some use in building.
Ohm meters, its just that you have to gain access to the wiring and unplug the doors connector and measure connector to switch connection and that will show you open circuits.

Looking for a way to shake up your next gathering — or just an excuse to party? A photo booth is an easy (yes, we said easy) way to take any event up a notch or two. Don't believe us? We've broken it down into three simple steps so you can bookmark, pin, print, save, or stash these directions away until the urge to party strikes. Although we have a feeling that won't be long…
Digital camera (a point-and-shoot will do!)
Remote shutter release
Painter's tape
Materials for a backdrop (We used 5 scarves and thumbtacks)
Props (Skip down to Step 3 to see what we suggest)
Step 1: Set the Stage
Start by selecting the location for your photo booth. While it will likely be the hit of the party, you don't want it to block anyone's path to the beverages or the bathroom. Pick somewhere prominent that will still be out of the way, like a hallway or corner of the room.
From here you simply need to set up your camera. Position it on top of your tripod and find a friend to model for you so you know what kind of space you're working with. Use some painter's tape to section off where your friends should stand so they're not cut out of the frame, and also to note where the tripod should go. If you're using a remote, be sure to place it somewhere that's easy to spot.
Party Tip: Set a floor lamp next to your camera and point the bulbs in the direction of your backdrop to better capture all of the shenanigans that are about to take place.
Step 2: Paint the Scene
Sure, the camera is set up and you could easily call it a day, but your guests will be yawning over your lackluster effort. This is a party photo booth after all, not school picture day. Create a backdrop that fits the occasion. We borrowed a brilliant idea from the girls at Scarves Dot Net and fashioned our backdrop out of a few scarves and a handful of thumbtacks.
Step 3: Pick the Props
To give our guests something to work with, we snagged a couple bar stools from the kitchen and a whole lotta props from all over the place. When selecting your props, consider the theme of your event and try to think outside of the box. Even everyday household items can create some hi-larious snapshots.
But of course, the staple of any photo booth is a bucket full of sunglasses. If you consider yourself crafty, you can DIY your own or if you're feeling a little lazy short on time (yeah, that sounds better) we have an entire collection of novelty glasses that are sure to fit the bill.
Looks like your photo booth is dressed up and ready to party down. Just don't forget to charge the camera and free up some memory space before your guests arrive!

Body lotions are skin-saviour during winters that helps in preventing skin from drying out. There can't be even a single day that I can skip using them as my very-dry skin begs for it. Today, I will be reviewing TBC Natural Vitamin-e Ultra Healing Body Lotion which I have been using for the past few days. I have seen products from "TBC by nature" online a lot of times but this is the first time ever that I am using their product, keep reading to know what I have to say about it 🙂 –Price- INR 265 for 500 mlAbout- Body Lotion is botanically rich, non-greasy daily lotion delivers deep, long-lasting hydration. Wheat Germ Oil, high in Vitamin E, combines with Vitamins A, B5 & C to help replenish lost moisture and minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Avocado Oil, high in essential fatty acids, helps restore elasticity and resilience. With use, skin is softer, smoother and more youthful looking.My Take on TBC Natural Vitamin-e Ultra Healing Body Lotion- TBC Natural Vitamin-e Ultra Healing Body Lotion comes in huge plastic bottle as it contains hefty 500 ml of product :O . For the price it retails and the quantity they offer, I think it falls in the category of most affordable body lotions. The bottle is very big to carry in bag, its long and sleek but I prefer carrying travel sized body lotions so that they take less space and I've more space for clothes 😛 . It comes with SPF 15 which is an added advantage, people nowadays have started looking for such body lotions with sun protection formula to let them step out in sun with no fear of getting tanned.It contains wheat germ oil which is very high in Vitamin E. The body lotion is white in color and the consistency is on runnier side, so when I initially used it I thought it wouldn't moisturise for long BUT..It's very hydrating! When I say it, I really mean it. Its made for very dry skin type, I use it daily after shower on slightly damp skin and it gets inside quickly leaving my skin well nourished for whole day 🙂 . It's not one of those body lotions that will not make you smell good, t's fragrance-free so the fragrance is extremely mild and doesn't linger. Even if you sniff closely, you'll only notice a faint smell. The formula is non-greasy, by the time you'll finish off rubbing it on skin you'll notice it's no more there on the top layer of skin. I love it for that! Greasy-ones are a big NO!
TBC Natural Vitamin-e Ultra Healing Body Lotion contains parabens, so for those who totally avoid paraben-inclusive products this would be a skip. It contains liquid paraffin oil too; if you get allergic reaction due to it, think well before you buy 🙂 Have a great day ahead!

Home Girl: The Single Woman's Guide to Buying Real Estate in Canada - Brenda Bouw
Statistics show that Canadian women now outnumber men in buying a house or condo. Women see the value in owning property. They are no longer waiting for, or expecting, a "Mr. Right" to come along before taking one of the key financial steps of their lives. Such is the case with the author of Home Girls: The Single Woman's Guide to Buying Real Estate in Canada
Brenda Bouw's own experiences in buying and selling real estate, and those of other single women she interviewed for the book--as well as insights from real estate professionals--are built into this informative and entertaining guide. If you are looking at buying a first property, you'll find out about the pitfalls you need to avoid and the necessary steps you must take to make that purchase a success story. If you already own real estate, you might be interested in renovating your house, buying an investment property or even becoming a landlord. Here are some of the key concepts:
* How to tell if you're ready to own your own home
* What to look for in a house
* The role of a real estate agent
* The offer, the deal, the closing and the aftermath
* The dozens of little expenses that you might not be aware of before it's time to pay for them
* What renovations to tackle yourself, and when it's time to call a pro
* How to become a landlord--and if you really want to be one
It is a truism that women tend to be more focused, organized and informed when it comes to making major purchases. Home Girl is the perfect book to give you an edge when it comes to understanding the process and negotiating your best deal. From thinking about buying a property, to getting the keys from your lawyer and popping the cork, Home Girl is the perfect companion to have along for the ride.

5 out of 5 stars.
At 564 grams this is the lightest jacket that I've owned. I bought mine in a small size, which leaves more than enough room to still wear a fleece underneath, this is a reliable companion on a hike at any time of year in any weather...
The front of the jacket is designed slightly higher than the rear to allow freedom of flow when climbing.
The jacket is constructed from Modica 3 layer GORE-TEX Pro Shell, meaning this is pretty much as waterproof as you can get whilst maintaining breath-ability, the black areas under the arms are stretch panels constructed from Stretch 3 layer GORE-TEX Proshell.
The jacket to the touch feels quite tough, this will take any scrapes from cliff sides and certainly rucksack straps.
The Raptor fixed hood is huge! It is well designed to take any climbing helmet, whilst being a fantastic hood when wearing it without a helmet. Easily the finest hood I've seen on any jacket - this is luxury when it comes to outdoor gear...
The hood is fully adjustable to be able to cope with strong mountain winds as well as having a big enough peak to shield your face from driving rain, snow or whatever the weather wants to throw at you. The peak is also wired so you can adjust it to your preference.
The two-way zip is water resistant with an internal storm baffle for extra protection from the elements, the front zip is also off-set meaning it closes away from where your mouth is.
One of the other interesting features of the hood is the venting face mask, a good feature that prevents the build up of condensation around your mouth area when the jacket is done right up, also note the PrimaLoft inner spin drift collar for added comfort...
The jacket has 3 zipped external pockets, 1 internal water bottle holder (to prevent your water from freezing on cold hikes). And 1 internal zipped pocket that is ideal for storing a wallet or mobile phone. Another interesting feature that was new to me when I bought this jacket are the pit-zips. These are great when on long up hills sections, especially when you need a waterproof on warmer days, the pit-zips are a great way of venting the jacket effectively, the jacket however for a GORE-TEX lined product is highly breathable.
As you would expect the jacket has elasticated and fully adjustable hem drawcords and the wrists have Velcro attachments...
As you would expect the jacket has elasticated and fully adjustable hem drawcords and the wrists have Velcro attachments...
This jacket is about as good as it gets at this level. Berghaus in my view have attempted to shrug off the older design image and have moved on successfully to deliver a modern looking jacket that is practical as well as functional. The only real draw back is the price, the jacket usually retails for around £300. I bought mine in a sale, I certainly wouldn't have paid that much for it. But you are getting a top of the range mountain jacket that looks frankly awesome what ever your outdoor activity.

The holes are kind of optional, they help in my setup since I don't really have much room at the front because of the mixer and also the cables from the far right turntable would possibly have been just long enough without this hole. As you say it's an easy fix to add later if needed.
Good to hear that you sorted things out, mind sharing some photos?
My hooks are all placed with the same distance from each corner. I don't know what it's really supposed to be, but I found that this work well with my setup.
My rubber bands are a bit different from the ones posted though, they are just under 4" long and only 5/16" wide. I tried combining the setup with different types of rubber bands, but ended up using just one type since the selection at staples here is kind of limited.
Basically I use the same amount of rubber bands on each hook all the way around, 4 rubber bands in my case, and then I use the black knob on the underside to adjust and compensate for weight differences to make it as near level as possible. My exact setup is not tweaked to perfection so there's room for adjustments and improvements, but it's close enough and works well for me so I decided to not get to anal about it.

Nike Miami Grand Opening: VIDEO
Last week, the fantastic new Nike Miami store opened its doors on the Lincoln Road Mall with a dazzling two-story, 31,000-square-foot athletic fashion gem. I was lucky enough to be able to attend the Nike Miami Grand Opening event and get a first look at the brand's limited-edition swag and state-of-the-art shopping perks. The visual impact of the store is significant, being just as impressive from the outside that it is on the inside.
The stunning exterior uses waffle ironing in concrete and terrazzo panels, echoing South American and South Florida design. The interior showcases a multimedia installation by Miami artist Jessy Nite, combining the forces of painting, typography, and sculpture.
The basketball and soccer fanatics out there will particularly love the most cutting-edge Nike+ Trial Zones. As a shopper, this means that you will not only do you get to try on products, but now you also get to try them out! You can get a feel for your potential new shoes on the 285-square-foot basketball court or score a gooooooool on the synthetic turf soccer field.
For the runners, you can even get a personalized running experience on a camera-operating treadmill. How cool is that? During the opening event, I was able to watch as the treadmill was recording strides and knee performance that was then downloaded to ensure a customized consultation for sneakers.
While that all might sound nice, you really need to see it to believe it! Luckily, YustisFutbol published this review of the store which showcases some of those impressive features we mentioned – specifically the Trial Zones! Soccer players out there will really love this video since he gives a brief review of the boots he was able to try out in the store.
As a Miami local, we are really looking forward to the events and releases we will now have access to with such an important Nike store in town. This can only mean good things for the Nike fans in the 305!
So what do you think? Will you be adding the new Nike Miami store on your to-do list next time you are in Miami Beach? Let us know in the comment section below. Thanks again to Nike for inviting us to the Nike Miami Grand Opening event!

It was twenty years ago today, Ken taught the band to play
As an example of the wonders on offer, this was the top 40 of this week in 1988. We know when we've done this in the past we've passed comment on every entry, but ultimately life's too short.
40 INXS - Never Tear Us Apart
39 Natalie Cole - Everlasting
38 LA Mix - Check This Out
Nothing says 1988 more than a megamix. Not even those four numbers in order.
37 Scritti Politti - Oh Patti (Don't Feel Sorry For Loverboy)
However much Green enjoyed colliding plastic soul and upturned lyrical content, by this point this was not a career high point. That said, the Shabba Ranks duet was still to come.
36 Glenn Medeiros - Nothing's Gonna Change My Love For You
Vic Reeves wielding a large painting was just around the corner.
35 Elton John - I Don't Wanna Go On With You Like That
34 Joy Division - Atmosphere
To promote Substance, and here joined to its Anton Corbijn oversized Puritan video.
33 Glen Goldsmith - What You See Is What You Get
No memory of Glen Goldsmith at all. Wikipedia - of course Wikipedia - says he had a few soul hits, was on Band Aid II and later wrote Peter Andre's Mysterious Girl, "the only song released three times by the same artist in the history of popular music" according to one blissfully ignorant source.
32 Hazell Dean - Maybe (We Should Call It A Day)
31 T'Pau - I Will Be With You
30 Fairground Attraction - Perfect
29 Sade - Paradise
"Have you heard this new music called jazz?"
28 Aswad - Give A Little Love
27 The Communards - There's More To Love
Their last single, and as everyone in a pub knows Richard Coles gave up a radio job as the unthinking man's pre-cancer John Diamond and has fairly recently been ordained.
26 Tracy Chapman - Fast Car
25 A-ha - The Blood That Moves The Body
The attempts at an Abba-style critical rehabilitation seem to have foundered once people realised that "Chris Martin likes them" isn't really in the Suicide class of critical influence. The single after this was Touchy, which might explain why it was doomed to failure.
24 Salt-n-Pepa - Push It/Tramp
Like everybody else who was famous at some point in America in the 1980s, they've been the subject of a revivalist VH1 docusoap, just the sort of thing to set female rap back another few years.
23 Belinda Carlisle - Circle In The Sand
22 The Sisters Of Mercy - Lucretia My Reflection
21 Bruce Springsteen - Tougher Than The Rest
20 Rose Royce - Car Wash/Is It Love You're After
Now there's a song that's outlived the film it was recorded for. No idea why it was reissued. General nostalgia?
19 Mica Paris - My One Temptation
18 Eurythmics - You Have Placed A Chill In My Heart
17 Matt Bianco - Don't Blame It On That Girl/Wap-Bam-Boogie
What an odd concept Matt Bianco were. Obviously there was deemed a gap in the New Pop market for a swing jazz influence. And they've reformed!
16 Voice Of The Beehive - Don't Call Me Baby
Not as great as you remember, sadly.
15 Tiffany - I Saw Him Standing There
14 Aztec Camera - Somewhere In My Heart
There's a definite other post, possibly later this week, about this song; in the meantime, consider the distance covered from The Sound Of Young Scotland to working with Mark Knopfler.
13 Morrissey - Every Day Is Like Sunday
12 Kylie Minogue - Got To Be Certain
First recorded for SAW by Mandy Smith. Where is she now?
11 Erasure - Chains Of Love
10 Wet Wet Wet/Billy Bragg With Cara Tivey - With A Little Help From My Friends/She's Leaving Home
Guess which side got the airplay. This was the charity release for Childline ("oh eight hundred double one...DOUBLE ONE"), and Bragg did get a week on TOTP. He'd forgotten the lyrics and had them taped to the floor by his feet, only to see them covered in dry ice. Later distracted by an audible crash he autopiloted his way to the end assuming there'd be a retake. There wasn't.
9 UB40 With Chrissie Hynde - Breakfast In Bed
8 Phil Collins - In The Air Tonight
You have to wonder how he really feels about having his bitter divorce song hijacked by a bloke in a gorilla suit. Wonderbra did a failed viral version - go on, guess how that went - only really notable for starring Jentina. Jentina! The alleged British gypsy Kelis of 2003 whose career was ended by Lady Sovereign! Reduced to online shilling for bras!
7 Desireless - Voyage Voyage
One of the great barely remembered one hit wonders of the decade, largely due to being all in another language which 'we' supposedly won't go for.
6 The Pasadenas - Tribute (Right On)
Essentially someone's idea of a British Temptations. Possibly whoever was buying Big Fun records, we can't say.
5 Maxi Priest - Wild World
4 The Fat Boys With Chubby Checker - The Twist (Yo, Twist)
Ah, Buffy The Human Beat Box. Early hitmaking rap was largely playful but after a while it perhaps became too facetious, especially when this sort of thing is becoming a hit. Roll on the black CNN.
3 Sabrina - Boys (Summertime Love)
One word, Ms Salerno (now a recording studio and management agency owner): straps.
2 The Timelords - Doctorin' The Tardis
We're all across who this was and what was published on the back of it, right? Good. Apart from the fact that not one of the artists that has openly cited The Manual as a major influence has had a number one single, the sometime Time Boy and Lord Rock admit in it that it is "a book that will be completely redundant within twelve months" due to the vagaries of popular culture.
1 Bros - I Owe You Nothing
A title that was never used smirkingly when Matt and Luke later filed for bankruptcy, oh no. Whatever happened to Tom Watkins?

Given the NME's failed attempt to get the Sex Pistols to number one this year, it's good to recall that the Childline single was taken from the NME's Sgt Pepper album and - thus - the paper's only really successful campaign to get a single to the top of the charts was for Wet Wet Wet.

Re: The Manual. You're wrong on this (unless I'm misunderstanding you) as Edelweiss (the band) did hit number one. From Wikipedia
"They reached a Europe-wide #1 position with their hit Bring me Edelweiss, by supposedly following the instructions given in The Manual, which was their main influence in getting their two hits. Bring Me Edelweiss sold five million copies worldwide. Bill Drummond, an author of "The Manual", mentioned that in the epilogue of the German release of "The Manual", which was originally published in 1989 (in English)."

Citation required on that - it reached, I think, number 5 in Britain.

Pennsylvania cheer squads participated in charity competition, with proceeds going to the local Boys and Girls Club.
Often, the talents of young cheerleaders go overlooked when they spend most of their time spreading school spirit on the sidelines at football games. Elementary and middle school-aged squads, which don't generally compete, rarely get to be the center of attention. Once a year, however, young cheer teams from all over Pennsylvania gather for the CheerFest Cheer for Charity. This year's event was held on October 12th in the Chambersburg Area Senior High School Gymnasium, and over 450 girls got to participate.
Excitement levels were high during the Saturday cheer competition as teams prepared to try to wow the judges with their two-and-a-half minute routines. The event was divided into four age groups (smurf, junior varsity, mid-varsity, and varsity), but all of the girls had to be in kindergarten through 8th grade to participate. The event organizer and president of the Keystone Youth Football and Cheerleading League, Alan Kline, noted that the event is
Making a varsity cheerleading squad is rewarding but also requires a lot of hard work. If you are unsure how to properly execute moves, you could end up getting hurt. Rather than ending up on the bench because of an injury, consider doing some extra practice at home to help you excel as a cheerleader. Each practice will make you sharper on your toes and will mentally prepare you for the moves you need to do. Rather than risk injury by practicing on your own, safely practice at home, with the help of a spotter, and can get you in shape while learning the proper way to pull it off! Have a Spotter: In order to stay safe while practicing, have someone else available to spot you as you do jumps, flips, tumbles and other basic cheerleading moves. They will have an eye for what you might be doing incorrectly and can help get you back on track. Working in pairs is the best way to gain knowledge from each other while practicing your moves. A spotter will also be there to catch you or support you as you perfect your skills. Flexibility: One way to
Your uniform is fresh from the dry cleaners, the vest perfectly pressed. The creases on your skirt are on point and your hair ribbon is tied exactly how you want it. Your routine is running through your head over and over again. You have spent every waking moment thinking about today. You are about to perform in your first varsity cheerleader competition. The only thing left to do is your makeup! How do you achieve a look that will WOW the judges without being too much? It's all about the eyes! Here's how to get a look that the judges will see, without looking tacky!
Innovative topical hand cream will stop your hands from perspiring when you need to avoid sweaty palms.
Before you head out onto the floor to do your cheer routine at a game or competition, you need to make sure you are in top form. Unfortunately, with pre-game jitters can come the tendency to sweat in the most inconvenient places. While a good antiperspirant should keep away potential embarrassment, if you have sweaty palms while cheerleading, it can actually be dangerous. After all, no one wants to be the base who accidentally loses their grip because of slippery hands. Tite-Grip is an innovative product that has become very popular among all kinds of athletes, but especially cheerleaders. Apply just a little of this topical cream to your palms, and your hands will stay bone dry.
Invented by Joe Ginger, a former PGA golfer, Tite-Grip is a patented hand cream that acts like an antiperspirant when applied to your palms. Ginger originally came up with the product to improve his golf grip, but he quickly found that the cream had applications in several athletic activities.

The 3-hour tasting tour, led by Food Crush Tours, will share the rich history and agricultural roots of The Barlow.

As a local, does it make sense for me to take this tour?

We are halfway in the rainy season and are enjoying the occasional rain showers. Some are planning treks while others are looking for leisure trips at nearby getaways. Sounds great! However, the pleasant rains have also brought along a number of monsoon related illnesses. Are you aware and cautious about them?
Some of the common illnesses visiting in monsoon:
It is one of the biggest reasons of major absenteeism in schools as well as offices. These viruses thrive in humid conditions and easily spread too.
This ailment somehow takes the top place during the rainy season. Female anopheles mosquito cause malaria by breeding in dirty water. The common symptoms of malaria are fever, shivers, muscle pain and weakness. If untreated, it can lead to more hazardous consequences.
Dengue fever is caused by the dengue virus found in certain mosquitoes. The common symptoms of dengue are fever, body aches, joint pain and rash. Keeping a check on the platelet count is needed as a low range needs urgent attention.
One of the most common monsoon ailments, leptospirosis is mostly caused by walking in dirty water. The chances of infection increases if you have skin injuries. This bacterial disease is spread by rats and symptoms include high fever and chills with severe headaches and body ache, followed by nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and abdominal pain.
This is another common ailment during monsoon, which is caused due to unhygienic consumption or handling of foods and water. When diarrhoea is caused by food contaminated with bacteria or parasites, it is often referred to this as food poisoning.
We generally tend to self medicate at times and ignore poor health symptoms. However it is best to consult a doctor immediately. Do check our below link for appointments, contact number and various doctor details. We cater to all kind of patient issues minor and major.
So be safe this monsoon by taking some small precautions. Happy Rains!

Some of the ladies of "The View" have some serious issues. They apparently have no issue bashing Christianity and Vice President Mike Pence's beliefs as "mental illness." But Pence wasn't going to let it stand, defended his faith and blasted them for their anti-Christian comments.
The View panel was discussing Omarosa Manigault leaving the White House and appearing as a contestant on "Celebrity Big Brother."
From Biz Pac Review:
"As bad as you think Trump is, you would be worried about Pence — everyone that is wishing for impeachment might want to reconsider their life," she said in a clip from the reality show which was shared on "The View."
"I am Christian. I love Jesus, but he thinks Jesus tells him to say things," she said to the other contestants.
Behar interjected with her unique brand of wisdom.
"It's one thing to talk to Jesus. It's another thing when Jesus talks to you. That's called mental illness, if I'm not correct, hearing voices," Behar said, before going on to trash the vice president for his self-proclaimed practice of refusing to be alone with a woman unless his wife is with him.
In the light of all the sexual assault and sexual harassment scandals, Pence's practice of not meeting alone with a woman is being proven more and more intelligent.
But Behar continued to mock Pence.
"Can he talk to Mary Magdalene without his wife in the room," she smirked, to the delight of the audience.
Pence didn't stay quiet in the face of the attack.
"To have ABC maintain a broadcast forum that compared Christianity to mental illness is just wrong," Pence said Wednesday on C-SPAN. "It is simply wrong for ABC to have a television program that expresses that kind of religious intolerance."
He continued:
"My faith sustains me in all that I do," he told C-SPAN, adding that "The View" hosts insulted the "vast majority of the American people who cherish faith."
"It demonstrates how out of touch some in the mainstream media are with the faith and values of the American people that you could have a major network like ABC permit a forum for invective against religion like that," he said.
Behar backed off a little after Pence's response and likely getting pushback against her attacks.
Behar took an ever-so-slight step back later on Tuesday though she still finds anyone talking to or hearing from Jesus should be suspect.
"I think Mike Pence, say what you want about him and his religiosity. I don't think he's mentally ill. Even though he is saying he hears voices I don't think he's that crazy," she said.
The answer is that because it's Pence and because it's Christianity, she thinks she had a free pass to just say anything, no matter how crazy or hateful it was.
This isn't the first time she's done something like this and probably wouldn't be the last.
And had she said it about any other group she would have been called out big time by MSM.

Funded under: PAR-FAS
SCIAme di DROni
From 2016-09-09 duration 24 months
Born for militar application, drones are expanding civil application fields. In civil field, RPAS (Remotely Piloted Aircraft systems) are commonly used to obtain aerial point of views exploited for context analysis, photogrammetry and agriculture. A challenging and innovative aspect is the development of evolved application dedicated to the environmental and territory protection and security. Aiming at this, the application should involve a set of different and configurable sensors such as detector of gases, heavy metals and bacterial charges, evaluator of electromagnetic foul-up, explosive detector and/or smart cameras able to perform an on-board elaboration and to send this result to the ground station or to other drones.
The project aims at designing, realizing and testing technologies and innovative sensors able to fulfill this field requirements.
The technologies to be developed will be:
- Communication between drone and one or more ground control station;
- On-board elaboration algorithms for optical and infrared sensors, near real time photogrammetry;
- Exploitation of cloud computing for information distribution.
The needed identified sensors are:
- Innovative GAS sensors, specific bacteria sensors and heavy metals sensors;
- Opportunity sensors, to be installed on drones, and usage of mobile devices for real time data diffusion;
- Compact sensors to verify electromagnetic foul-up levels and to verify radioways used by planes during landing phases.

|Map showing locations of kiwaids and the Cretaceous stem lineage fossil Pristinaspina gelasina in relation to land-masses and mid-ocean ridges.
in Roterman, Lee, Liu, et al., 2018.
The recent discovery of two new species of kiwaid squat lobsters on hydrothermal vents in the Pacific Ocean and in the Pacific sector of the Southern Ocean has prompted a re-analysis of Kiwaid biogeographical history. Using a larger alignment with more fossil calibrated nodes than previously, we consider the precise relationship between Kiwaidae, Chirostylidae and Eumunididae within Chirostyloidea (Decapoda: Anomura) to be still unresolved at present. Additionally, the placement of both new species within a new "Bristly" clade along with the seep-associated Kiwa puravida is most parsimoniously interpreted as supporting a vent origin for the family, rather than a seep-to-vent progression. Fossil-calibrated divergence analysis indicates an origin for the clade around the Eocene-Oligocene boundary in the eastern Pacific ~33–38 Ma, coincident with a lowering of bottom temperatures and increased ventilation in the Pacific deep sea. Likewise, the mid-Miocene (~10–16 Ma) rapid radiation of the new Bristly clade also coincides with a similar cooling event in the tropical East Pacific. The distribution, diversity, tree topology and divergence timing of Kiwaidae in the East Pacific is most consistent with a pattern of extinctions, recolonisations and radiations along fast-spreading ridges in this region and may have been punctuated by large-scale fluctuations in deep-water ventilation and temperature during the Cenozoic; further affecting the viability of Kiwaidae populations along portions of mid-ocean ridge.

Kiwaid representations are: i) Kiwa puravida ii) Kiwa sp. GM, iii) Kiwa hirsuta, iv) Kiwa araonae v) Kiwa tyleri vi) Kiwa sp. SWIR. Land shapes and ridge positions are modified from the InterRidge Vents Database 2.1 static map (vents-data.interridge.org/maps). Areas of mid-ocean ridge in light blue denote unexplored regions that may support Kiwaidae. Spreading ridge abbreviations are as follows: NEPR = Northern East Pacific Rise; SEPR = Southern East Pacific Rise; GR = Galapagos Rift; GM = Galapagos Microplate; PAR = Pacific-Antarctic Ridge; AAR = Australian-Antarctic Ridge; CR = Chile Rise; ESR = East Scotia Ridge; AmAR = American-Antarctic Ridge; SWIR = Southwest Indian Ridge; CIR = Central Indian Ridge; SEIR = Southeast Indian Ridge; MAR = Mid-Atlantic Ridge. Photograph of K. puravida modified from Thurber et al. [2011] and Kiwa hirsuta modified from Muséum National D'Histoire Naturelle (MNHN) crustacean collection–credit Noémy Mollaret
This study is an augmentation of Roterman et al. [2013] through the addition of more kiwaids, longer alignments and more fossil calibrations. Tree topologies produced here modify some of the inferences of the previous study. The sister-phyly of Kiwaidae and Chirostylidae within Chirostyloidea is placed in doubt, as are the previous inferences of a seep-to-vent evolutionary progression and a Northern Hemisphere origin for Kiwaidae. Current analyses do support the earlier inference for an East Pacific origin, however, and divergence estimates are broadly similar to previous analyses. Age estimates for the MRCA of Kiwaidae indicate an origin long after the PETM, around the Eocene-Oligocene boundary at a time of deep-water cooling and increased ventilation in the Pacific. Likewise, the rapid radiation of a newly defined Bristly clade appears synchronous with another transition to cooler and more ventilated conditions in the East Pacific during the Middle Miocene. The distribution, diversity, tree topology and divergence timing of vent-associated Kiwaidae in the Pacific is consistent with a pattern of regional extinctions, recolonisations and radiations along fast-spreading ridges over the last 40 million years. This pattern may have been punctuated by large-scale fluctuations in deep-water ventilation and temperature during the Cenozoic; further affecting the viability of Kiwaidae populations along large areas of mid-ocean ridge. The exploration of new vent and seep systems in the Pacific and beyond will help to better resolve the biogeographic history of Kiwaidae and provide new insights into the long-term resilience of metapopulations inhabiting deep-sea chemosynthetic ecosystems.

A convicted child sex offender is accused of setting up a fake Facebook account to strike up friendships with minors.
Police say Eric Thor Hakala, 37, of Naperville, set up a profile page using the alias "Mike Evans," a 15-year-old student from St. Charles East High School.
Detectives say Hakala was having sexual conversations and trading inappropriate pictures with several minor children in the Oswego, Batavia and the St. Charles area by using the fake profile account.
Police are asking parents in those cities to speak with their teens and go over their Facebook friend lists to see if they are connected with "Mike Evans."
If any communication is found, authorities are requesting parents to not report the activity to Facebook, but to preserve any conversations or photos.
Hakala faces numerous felony charges including two counts of Indecent Solicitation, two counts of Grooming, Harmful Material, and 10 counts of Possession of Child Pornography.
Anyone with information about the case is asked to contact the Naperville Police Department High Technology Crimes Unit at 630-305-5384 or the Batavia Police Department Investigations Unit at 630-454-2500.
