Stand out from the crowd It's easy to be overlooked amid the flood of CVs employers receive. Here are some strategies to consider that could help you gain a potential employer's attention: Cultivate your digital brand Tailor your job applications It's important to maintain your 'brand' both offline and online. What you share on your Facebook page, in a YouTube video, or on a blog all matter to potential employers. In fact, it's likely a hiring manager will at least 'Google' you before an interview. You need to ensure what is viewable to the public won't reflect poorly on you as a professional. Tailor your CV and cover letter for every application. It's well worth it because the hiring manager can see at a glance, your credentials and why you should be considered for an interview. Set up your LinkedIn profile A great way to build your online identity is by setting up your professional profile on LinkedIn. Essentially it's your online CV, and helps you to network with others. Joining our free student club, OneNetwork, will give you the opportunity to access our LinkedIn group. Here, you'll be able to connect with potential employers, join in on conversations and profile your professional experience. 16 Plus, adapting your CV for each job opportunity shows you're taking a thoughtful approach to your job search. Instead of hitting "send" and deploying the same information time and again, you're making the effort to explain why you're the best candidate for each specific role. Follow up: before and after the interview After you send out a CV, don't play the waiting game if you want to get noticed. Sending an email or calling to confirm your CV has been received can help earn you a spot on a busy hiring manager's radar. After an interview, it also makes a good impression to send a thank you email. Doing this re-emphasises your enthusiasm for the position and your strengths.

Step into the highest version of you.
Sept 30 Morning Pages
You've already experienced everything before. If you want to experience anything in this dimension, you just pull/receive/download that energy into "this" you. Receive it and step into it, naturally, appreciate it, intend it, focus on it, receive it into existence, open your heart to receive it, this is the way you bring things into this creation, this is how you create it, you become aware of it.
And if you have any blocks to receiving this, the ego is still trying to run the show for you.
Everything can be released really fast for you, as fast as you can believe this is possible for you. Free your mind from this enslavement and step into who you really are, an infinite being having a human experience.
It's hard to wrap your egoic mind around it if you have closed yourself off from anything outside of your conditioned programming, so if you find yourself struggling with these concepts, I recommend researching and familiarizing yourself quantum physics, consciousness, parallel realities, and releasing negative limited beliefs.
Following what feels right and good for you. Releasing your fears. Speak out your confusion and lunacy and crazy stuff. Write it down to get it out. You can't understand an illusion, but we can prepare our minds to be able to try it on and as we come to a place where we can experience it actually working, then your egoic mind will be in a much more helpful place to be able to try things out without resisting so much.
You're just stepping into another vibration. You are stepping into your higher self and communicating to other people's higher selves. The vibrations / the energy does the talking. The words don't matter. The energy matters. The energy moves you to the right frequency you need to activate for your own transformation and lights the way for others.
You work on yourself, you be it and then others will come to learn how you did it. In order for me to teach it, I have to be it. In order for me to help people love themselves more, I have to love myself more. In order to help people out of poverty, I have to help myself out of poverty. In order for me to help others overcome their barriers, I have to overcome my own barriers.
In order for me to help the world vibrate higher, I have to vibrate higher.
In order for the world to be the change, I have to be the change.
I have to be what I want to see.
And that is my motivation and inspiration.
In order for the world to be abundant, I have to be abundant.
For others to be happy, I have to be happy.
To inspire others to their dreamlife, I have to be living my dreamlife.
To raise consciousness of this planet, I have to raise my own consciousness.
To vibrate higher, I have to vibrate higher.
To heal the sick, I have to heal myself.
In order to release the stress in my life, I had to release the stress in my life.
In order to show the world there is a better way, I have to show them a better way.
I have to "Be" a better way.
If I want to empower people, I have to be empowered.
If I want to end suffering for the world, I have to end suffering for myself.
In order to give the world the gift of a fantastic life, you have to create a fantastic life.
In order to connect with your higher self, you just connect with your higher self.
In order to unbrainwash old patterns that no longer serve you, you need to reprogram new patterns than serve your new life.
In order to make massive contributions to this world, you need to have massive value, you need to be vibrationally, compatible with money and abundance.
In order to create change in the world, you have to be be the change you want to see in the world.

Avoidables have defects ranging from looks to unexplained gifts. Some of us are half breeds. Dragons and animals were known to have bred with the human race thousands of years ago. We all live in cities, usually divided in two. The Perfects live on the Upper Side, while the Avoidables inhabit the Lower Side. We've been consumed by hate for a race that rejects us so heartlessly. We've become dangerous. All we want is the Perfects to love and respect us.
Follow Hope, Purple and Jason on their individual journeys.
Hope uncovers a great secret about herself when she meets Jason, a Perfect that brings out the best in her.
Purple tries to rescue a kidnaped Hope, but soon realises that she's in better company than they knew. When he meets Alia, he's determined not to follow his best friends footsteps in love.
Jason needs to prove himself. Avoidables view him as the Perfect mummy's boy, but he will find a way to show Hope that he is perfect for her.

Developed in the early 1990's by Drs. Mark Lovell and Joseph Maroon, ImPACT is a 20 minute test that has become a standard tool used in comprehensive clinical management of concussions for athletes of all ages. ImPACT Applications, Inc. was co-founded by Mark Lovell, PhD, Joseph Maroon, MD and Michael (Mickey) Collins, PhD.
Given the inherent difficulties in concussion management, it is important to manage concussions on an individualized basis and to implement baseline testing and/or post-injury neurocognitive testing. This type of concussion assessment can help to objectively evaluate the concussed athlete's post-injury condition and track recovery for safe return to play, thus preventing the cumulative effects of concussion. In fact, neurocognitive testing has recently been called the cornerstone of proper concussion management by an international panel of sports medicine experts.
ImPACT can be administered by an athletic trainer, school nurse, athletic director, team coach, team doctor or anyone trained to administer baseline testing. ImPACT is the most widely used computer based testing program in the work and is implemented effectively across high school, collegiate and professional levels of sport participation.
- Measures players symptoms
- Measures verbal and visual membory, processing speed and reaction time
- Reaction time measured to 1/100th of a second
- Assists clinicians and athletic trainers in making difficult return to play decisions
- Provides reliable baseline test information
- Produces comprehensive report of test results
- Results can be e-mailed or faxed for fast consultation by a neuropsychologist
- Automatically stores data from repeat testing
- Testing is administered online for individuals or groups
The test battery consists of a near infinite number of alternate forms by randomly varying the stimulus array for each administration. This feature was built in to the program to minimize the practice effects that have limited the usefulness of more traditional neurocognitive tests. ImPACT takes approximately 20 minutes to complete. The program measures multiple aspects of cognitive functioning in athletes including:
- Attention span
- Sustained and selective attention time
- Non verbal problem solving
- Working memory
- Response variability
- Reaction time

This Is Our Beautiful City
- Anna Dyson
- 1 Comment
As the sun set on an extraordinary day for me yesterday, I was in an appropriate location: standing on a patch of wasteland in Harehills, with a magnificent view over our beautiful city.
I was filled with a sense of gratitude for living here, and pride and responsibility for OUR city. I turned to my host, PC Ash, and shared my thoughts;
"Wow, look at our beautiful city."
And it felt so pertinent, standing on a piece of wasteland in Harehills with another local who is more passionate about change for the better in Harehills than I am, to share that moment of gratitude for feeling a sense of belonging and pride in where I live.
PC Ash is an absolutely inspiring local bobby who has been a trailblazer in transforming this patch of wasteland – which he first came across whilst on the beat and was shocked by the abundance of discarded needles and trash on the area- into a community hub. So far he has succeeded in gathering volunteers to clear the land, import some portacabins, accessing electricity and water, and creating a youth centre, crèche, meeting space and even a small kitchen. When I visited last night, their efforts were certainly paying off: the youth club was in full swing and kids of all ages were enjoying the space, learning new skills and doing their homework together. They were safe, they were happy and they were creating community across cultural divides.
And there's more. PC Ash and his incredible team of volunteers are planning on building more useable spaces on the site. The cost of moving a disused portacabin from Wakefield (this guy has contacts!) is about £30k. Is this putting him off his plans? Of course not. And what's the plan for one of these new spaces? You guessed it – a cafe. And who has now solved the quandary of how to get toastlovecoffee finally off the ground? You guessed it….. Harehills here we come!
How exciting! Can't wait to see what's next…

HARTFORD -- Hundreds of Eastern Connecticut families whose homes have crumbling foundations are seeking a Federal investigation, alleging that state officials knew about the problem, blamed on faulty concrete and installation, at least as far back as 2002.
It's estimated that it would cost $200,000 to repair each home, and the homeowners want somebody to pay for it. Their insurance policies have coverage only in the case of a collapse.
The state has offered loans, but the families say they cannot afford to make loan payments, on top of mortgage payments.
Guest: Tim Heim, President of the Coalition Against Crumbling Basements

The 1st ever Jamaica Natural Hair, Health and Beauty Festival, will be held at the historic Fort Charlotte in Lucea, Hanover, Jamaica on Emancipation Day, Tuesday, August 1, 2017, under the theme: "'Hair' we come; Here's to health; Ital is Vital".
This festival at its core, is geared at enabling women and girls to love, manage and wear their beautiful natural hair, of all types, with ease, with beauty and with grace.
Increasingly, Jamaicans are becoming health conscious and very mindful of the foods we consume, and the products we put on our bodies, and are always seeking ways of finding the best products we believe to be in the best interest of our health. Therefore, the Jamaica Natural Hair, Health and Beauty Festival will go beyond the superficial, beyond aesthetics, because beauty, it is said, is only skin-deep.
As most people may know, the health of the hair in its natural state is a reflection of general health. The skin too, is emphasised, because the skin, is our largest organ and the health of the skin is a major reflection of the health of the rest of the body.
We will celebrate and promote healthy hair; celebrate Jamaican producers of natural and organic beauty products for the skin, hair and body, as well as other products for healthy living; organic and wholesome foods – fresh fruits, vegetables, herbs - and beverages. Of course, naturally, we will be promoting the consumption of water.

THE SHOOTING of American police officers has been openly glorified during a black nationalist event held at a Birmingham university, newly unearthed video footage reveals today.
At the centre of the incident is Dr Kehinde Andrews, an associate professor in sociology at Birmingham City University (BCU). He rose to prominence in October 2017 after appearing on BBC's Newsnight programme on which he claimed the Union Flag was "a symbol of oppression" and the Royal Family "divisive". Recently appearing alongside comedian Russell Brand, Dr Andrews has also referred to Britain as a "bleary island" in columns for the Guardian and Independent.
As well as his academic work, Dr Andrews is founder and chair of the Organisation of Black Unity (OBU) which says its aim is to create a mass network of black people through membership. The group supports African-American human rights activist Malcolm X who was notorious for advocating the complete separation of black and white people.
On its website, Shy Society can reveal today, a two-hour YouTube video captures a debate organised by Dr Andrews for his OBU group in March 2015. The event is held on the Perry Barr campus of Birmingham City University, where the professor is employed and is framed around a famous Malcolm X speech and the importance of the black community using their vote.
Also at the discussion, and co-chairing the debate, is an African woman called Tamar Francis who announces to the audience of black students that she is the vice-chair of OBU, or Dr Andrews' second-in-command. Around 20 minutes into the debate, Dr Andrews references a shooting in the United States during the Ferguson unrest whereby members of the black community fired on American law enforcement officials.
Responding to this point, Ms Francis tells the crowd:
"As far as the violence and shooting at the police, I'm going to take this to another area. At the beginning of Malcom's speech, he talks about Islam as his religion and that's a personal thing between him and god. But his moral and political and economic philosophy is black nationalism, okay, and he says that to say that when he's talking about the marching and protesting… and the march that Martin Luther King did between Lincoln and Washington, that's what we kind of find ourselves doing. So metaphorically we find ourselves here marching between Conservatives and Labour, or we find ourselves marching from town to Handsworth. We're constantly marching and marching and marching. And just like Malcolm says 'you can't sing up on some freedom, but you can swing up on some freedom' – and what he means by that is the passiveness and almost this pride in suffering mantra that we've taken up, and I do blame religion a lot for that as well.
"If he (Malcolm X) was saying it was too much back in the 1960s, it's 2015, come on, so that's a natural reaction for anyone. Sometimes I feel like going out there and shooting some police, you know what I am saying? So, I think that's a natural reaction because what's going to happen now? This is what happens: we get very euphoric when there's an incident, we get our placards up, we start marching but what's going to happen next week? Why do we always have to wait for a headline for some action to be taken? Because nothing is happening constantly, behind the scenes it seems like we're never getting anywhere. Because every time something happens we're starting again – we've got to regenerate that energy we've got to go out into the streets and we've got to start again. And it's pointless. So, it's not surprising to me, it's just like when the riots happened. None of those people that were doing those things *INAUDIBLE* they're just tired of and just having to accept and succumb whatever the system tells us is going on. So, I'm not surprised that's its happened and I think it's going to happen even more.
"If we had a more nation building type mentality these things couldn't happen. And unfortunately, because this shooting wasn't organised, and it wasn't something that was orchestrated properly, it's just going to seem like a one-off effect. You're going to have people within our own community probably trying to demonise them – not understanding the bigger picture – but ready with their placards to go and march again. And I personally, you know like I say I don't condone violence, but by any means necessary. That's what I say (laughter)."
Ms Francis' remarks remain unchallenged and as the debate turns to the integration of the black community, the deputy of Dr Andrews' organisation leaves people in no doubt to her position in an exchange with local councillor Paulette Hamilton, another of the panellists.
"I'm not interested in integration, segregation for me is excellent… There has never been any advantage to integrating with them," she says defiantly. Ms Francis, appearing to take her own advice, had at the start of the discussion urged students to speak their minds because they were "among their own people".
"So when you're in this environment you're free, you're amongst your people – we speak how we want to speak," she had told the crowd.
Ms Francis' comments about shooting police officers, segregating British communities along racial lines, "demonising" criminals, and "orchestrating" violence against law enforcement will no doubt come as a shock to many. Dr Andrews, who teaches the UK's first undergraduate degree course in Black Studies at BCU, openly promotes his founding of the Organisation of Black Unity on his university website bio.
OBU is funded through membership fees and on a page entitled 'what we want' members can be seen calling for "an independent black nation" and for members of the community to "throw away European religion".
Shy Society contacted Birmingham City University, Dr Andrews, and Ms Francis for comment. None of them responded to our request at the time of publication.

Myrtle Beach, NC – A woman attempted to demand a $300,000 bribe from police when calling the 911 hotline. The kicker is that Jennifer Melissa Herring was calling 911 from her cell phone while in the middle of a police car chase.
About 11:30 PM Monday, North Carolina deputies in Brunswick County began to pursue Jennifer Melissa Herring' vehicle in the area of Holden Beach Road and Oxpen Road in Supply. According to Myrtle Beach Online, Deputy Joe Cherry tried to stop the vehicle, but the driver refused, and she took off at high speeds.
The Myrtle Beach woman called 911 while being pursued to tell authorities there was no emergency. Instead, she claimed she would not pull over unless they gave her $300,000 dollars. Perhaps she was hoping that police would fear for the public's safety and give up the chase, as was the case with Katt Willams and his three-wheeled motorcycle chase. The police obviously would not reward a reckless driver with a bribe in the face of blatant blackmail such as this .
Police Deputy Cherry chased the vehicle until it reached the end of Old Ferry Road, which was a dead end so Herring pulled into a private driveway. The police car chase took about 15 minutes and reached speeds of up to 70 mph in a 45 mph speed limit zone.
When Herring finally stopped, she was charged with driving while impaired, felony fleeing to elude arrest, driving while license revoked, careless and reckless driving and driving left of center, according to the Brunswick County Sheriff's Office.
Herring is being held at the Brunswick County Detention Center pending a bond hearing. Herring also was charged in an unrelated case of failure to appear on a pending DWI case, which also was filed in Brunswick County.
What do you think of the audacity of this woman demanding a $300,000 bribe from 911 in order to pull over for a police car chase?

Yan Orjoux, the Self-Made Man [fr]
Seated at his usual place, in the corner of his favorite restaurant, a vegetarian Indian restaurant in Marietta, Georgia, where he likes to eat spicy - he loves the " rich spread of Asian cuisine "- Yan Orjoux perfectly blends in with the diverse clientele. With his large square frame and pronounced French accent, blending in is not always evident, especially with his professional life that sends him outside the U.S. up to five months of the year.
However, that's what he tries to do. Direct like an American and warm like a Southerner, he knows his Indian server by name and jokes with strangers like old friends. The people he talks with, are they close or does he just treat them as such?
Perhaps this explains, at least in part, the secret of his success at the age of 46. In fifteen years, Yan Orjoux has built and developed a distribution and exportation company of equipment for the oil industry, based in Marietta, Star Trade International, LLC. Named after a Little Five Points bar where he met his American wife, during the 1996 Olympic Games, the company now has about 30 employees at several sites around the world, especially in Asia, and includes among its clients some of the biggest names in the oil industry.
"I always wanted to work for myself," says the boating and cycling enthusiast. A native of Bayonne on the Basque coast, he attributes his attraction to entrepreneurship to his dream of traveling and freedom. "I like being free to spend time with my family and friends or to go sailing or cycling any time."
The birth of an idea
The idea for his company was born in Africa, when Yan Orjoux was at the head of General Motors Gabon. This was after working in distribution and exportation of electrical equipment within the Pinault Group for 6 years for the Africa region and South America—a great opportunity he attributes to his then mentor who had taken him under his wing – followed by two years in London as head of the African zone for the Japanese company, Itochu.
Recognizing a need for quality equipment to repair oil platforms, Orjoux started the company upon arrival th the U.S. with his wife and baby in 2000. The moment had come to spread his wings.
"The United States is an excellent country to start and grow a company, largely because of existing structures and flexibility, such as industrial and banking."
Becoming a self-made man
Becoming a "self-made man" in the United States is not done overnight. At first, Orjoux confesses that starting a business from scratch in a country that he knew little of demanded a great amount energy and drive. Eight months after the creation of his company, he went looking for clients in Asia.
Yan Orjoux knocked on doors and found himself in front of a Chinese executive, who, aware of the big problem of supply in its refining company, introduced him to several oil companies. Thanks to this daring move, Star Trade International, LLC was off to a great start.
During his second year, he opened an office in Shanghai, and the company is now present in 15 countries.
"I am passionate and very curious. I love to see how things work, discover new technologies," he says, explaining his overall strategy. Next week, he will be in South Korea, then Malaysia and Indonesia to visit factories, meet customers and work on new projects. "I always try to be very present in the field and diversify our activities by means of new technologies to remain competitive to our customers."
A man of tradition
Yan Orjoux attributes part of his fascination with Asia to their respect for traditions. He encourages traditions in his own home and imparts his French culture to both sons, Samuel (15 years) and Loïc (12 years old), thanks, in part, to annual trips to France as well as speaking French at home.
Passionate about traveling - he has been to 75 countries according to the last count - he explains that spending almost half the year away from his family is not as painful as it sounds, especially since his wife Alanne, a reporter for CNN, and his sons also share the taste of travel. An attentive father, Orjoux taught French for six years in an after school program at his sons' elementary school.
"They have already visited several countries, " he shares, proud to expose his son to different cultures, religions, and and socio-economic situations. "We just want to teach them to love and to respect people for who they are- whatever their color or religion- not just for what they have. "
Does he have any advice for French youth who aspire to do the same in the Southeast? Yan Orjoux sips his sweet Indian tea before answering.
"Be authentic, passionate and, of course, have a solid project. But first, whatever the country and the project, be bold. Love work done well. Don't let yourself get discouraged, and do not hesitate to knock on doors without bias or fear."

Sleepwalking: How to Keep Your Young Wanderer Safe
A teen who wandered for 9 miles in her sleep reminds us of the dangers of sleepwalking
"Sleepwalking teen walks 9 miles" made headlines on November 3, 2015, after a 19-year-old was found safe after disappearing from her Denver, Colorado home at night. It turns out the teen, who was known to walk in her sleep, had apparently sleepwalked for hours — something she didn't remember after she woke up in her pajamas and socks 9 miles away from her home. It was an occurrence that sleepwalking experts said is highly unusual but not impossible. The triggers, one sleep expert said, include sleep deprivation and stress.

The news triggered a memory of a night some years back in Oakland, California, when my friends' 12-year-old son shuffled out of his room at midnight, a towel hanging over his arm and a glassy, dazed look in his eyes. He noticed me and paused for a moment. "We have to get to the airport," he whispered urgently. "The plane's about to take off!"
He had sleepwalked before and I wondered if his subconscious was dealing with the trauma of the Oakland firestorm just days earlier, when our neighborhood had prepared to evacuate. I was reluctant to wake him up for fear of scaring him, but he was heading toward the door. I tried to think fast. "Ben, you know what?" I said. "The flight was canceled." He turned around. "Oh, huh, okay," he said, sounding relieved, and shuffled back to his bed.
Almost 17 percent of children sleepwalk at some point (it's more like 4 percent of adults), according to the American Academy of Sleep Medicine. Sleepwalking and sleep-eating — part of a group of disruptive sleep behaviors known as parasomnias — originate during deep sleep. Sleepwalkers have been known to walk, climb out windows and even drive, but since they're in a deep sleep, they are hard to awaken and rarely remember the episode.

If you have a child or teen who sleepwalks, the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) has these tips.
- Try not to wake your child if he's sleepwalking because this might frighten him. Guide him or her back to bed instead.
- Lock tall the windows and doors in your home in case your youngster decides to leave the house Consider extra locks. If your child is old enough to drive, keep the car keys out of reach.
- Don't let your sleepwalker sleep in a bunk bed.
- Remove any sharp or breakable objects from the vicinity of your child's bed.
- Keep dangerous objects out of reach.
- Remove clutter from the floor throughout the house to prevent a fall.
- If your child is young, install safety gates outside his or her room and at the top of any stairs.
The AAP and the National Sleep Foundation suggest establishing a relaxing bedtime routine for your child or teen (and yourself, if you sleepwalk). Sleepwalkers should avoid drinking too many liquids before bed, since a full bladder is linked to sleepwalking. Adults should also avoid alcohol as well as certain medications if they seem to trigger an episode.
