Keeping Up With The Latest Fashion Trends

Fashion knowledge can influence many aspects of your life. The clothes we wear might not completely make the person, but they do appear to make that person look a heck of a lot better. This article has fashion tips that anybody can use every day.

Always keep your eye out for any changes in the latest styles. Styles are constantly changing, which is why you are going to want to make sure that you are always up to date with the latest there is to know. Magazines get looks directly from the runway, so they are often the first to publish new trends.

Sheer clothes might make you sexy. However, you need to be careful about the level of sheerness and the area of the sheer. Something too sheer can cause you to look trashy.

Moisturizers in your shampoo and conditioner are essential if you hair has a tendency to frizz in damp weather. This will protect your hair by refusing to lock in excessive moisture. Avoid products which create volume; this includes products containing wheat or rice.

Before throwing away your beauty products, get out every little bit. For tubed products, use a toothpaste tube squeezer to get every last drop. Sometimes turning a bottle on it’s cap or sideways can help you squeeze out that last drop. You may also remove the tops once a product reaches the remnants. You can save tons of money this way.

If you carry a few extra pounds, then avoid wearing clothes with horizontal stripes. This pattern can place extra emphasis on your body’s width, as it draws the eye across your body. If you love stripes, try a vertical pattern instead. This elongates your frame, drawing the eye up and down.

Common wisdom is to avoid horizontal stripes if you happen to be on the heavy side. These stripes put greater emphasis on your width, which will cause you to appear even wider than you really are. Patterns must run from head to toe to make you look taller and more slender.

A newsletter is a good way to stay on top of trends. When you do that, you’ll be ready for every season and you will be first in your social group to have the latest fashions.

To improve the look of your lips, use a pencil and then blend the perimeter with a sponge. Use petroleum jelly or gloss on top of this. Finish off by emphasizing your upper lip with extra gloss towards the center to achieve a pouty look. Another way is to use an shade of eye shadow that can highlight your lip color. Put just a dab of eye shadow in the middle of both your upper and lower lips.

When you look and feel great, people notice. When your reflection is impressive, people you know and strangers will notice you. When you want people to give you that approving nod, try to look great. What you’ve read here should set you on the path to fashion fabulousness.

Earthquake, tsunami combo caused devastation in Pichilemu, Chile

Thursday, March 4, 2010

Pichilemu, Chile – Last Saturday, Chile was hit by a 8.8 earthquake. Many coastal towns were also hit by a tsunami, and Pichilemu was one of them. Its inhabitants were surprised by the giant waves that destroyed the most of the costanera and that reached the city square.

Pichilemu, that means in Mapudungun language small forest, is one of the most famous Chilean resort towns in the central zone of Chile. It is recurrently visited by surfers from all the world, because the Punta de Lobos beach is considered one of the best for surf practice worldwide.

Central Pichilemu was not severely damaged by the earthquake, but the tsunami caused significant destruction. The Fishermen Creek, located in front of the beach, was completely destroyed, and its machines are now unusable. Most of the Agustín Ross architecture that characterized the city, three of them being National Monuments of Chile, were damaged. The Agustín Ross Mirador, a famous location in front of the beach, located less than 200 meters from the Fisherman Creek, was completely destroyed. Its famous balustrades were washed away or thrown asunder. Many restaurants, kiosks and a circus were affected by the tsunami.

The rural parts of Pichilemu, like Ciruelos, Rodeillo and Espinillo feature houses constructed from adobe. Many were more than 100-years old, and were destroyed or are now uninhabitable.

The most powerful aftershock was produced almost 40 kilometers in front of the coast of Pichilemu, at the 03:10 local time (07:10 UTC) in March 2, with an intensity of 5.5 in the Richter scale, according to the USGS.

The Intendant of the O’Higgins Region, Juan Núñez, had a meeting with the Governor of the Cardenal Caro Province, Loreto Puebla, the Mayor of Pichilemu, Roberto Córdova, and naval and military authorities, juntas de vecinos representatives. They decided to leave the Carabineros police force to maintain the security of the city.

Los Angeles undergoing large power outage

Monday, September 12, 2005

A power outage in a large portion of Los Angeles, California occurred at approximately 13:00 PST (20:00 UTC) on Monday. Reports from the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power indicate that the incident was caused by a worker who accidentally cut a line. The outage caused a chain reaction that took out power to a large part of the city.

According to local television stations, power is being returned to some of the city, including the UCLA Medical Center. Police are on “full tactical alert”, meaning that they will only respond to serious calls and all officers must remain on duty. Most officers are directing traffic.

Los Angeles International Airport briefly was affected but generators engaged shortly thereafter. No flights were delayed or cancelled.

According to the Department of Water and Power, the shutdown happened because of a mechanical problem at two receiving stations. The system automatically triggered a shutdown when a line was cut. DWP spokesman Ron Deaton said that if there is an increase in the power stations automatically shut down. “You cut the wrong wire and it triggers the system to shut down. We have finished repairing the transmission systems. Some units are not up yet, but we have other generating parts of the system. All that remains is the distribution of the power to the individual customers.”

The DWP is currently restoring power by redirecting it from other areas.

The DWP, LAPD, the DOD and Department of Homeland security immediately assured the public that the power outage has nothing to do with terrorism or sabotage, and that the identity of the worker(s) who cut the power lines will not be released.
