10 Words You Should Remove From Your Resume Right Now Are you a "creative" and "effective" job candidate? News flash: you're also "predictable," like a lot of other applicants using these same buzzwords. LinkedIn released their annual list of the most overused buzzwords on their 187 million profile pages this week, with "creative" taking the dubious honor for the second year in a row. Words commonly used on LinkedIn are also likely to appear on resumes, meaning the list outlines the buzzwords you should be avoiding when formatting and writing your own resume. LinkedIn's top 10 repetitive words for the profiles of U.S. professionals were as follows (with some helpful translations): 1. The lack of creativity in using the word "creative" to describe qualifications isn't confined to the U.S. -- it was also the most overused buzzword in Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Germany, Singapore, Sweden, and the Netherlands. Still, removing the unoriginal buzzword entirely can be difficult. Loading Slideshow Ridiculous Resumes & Cover Letters 1 of 22
Air Force Survival Training Manual Given that there are so many survival manuals out there, it’s hard to know which ones are worth having in your survival library. Well, if there’s one survival manual that I highly recommend it is the Air Force Survival Training manual. The Air Force Survival Training manual (specifically the AFR-64) is, in my opinion, the cream of the crop. In fact, many of the numerous commercial and military books and manuals are based off of this manual (much of which which is copied verbatim — both the words and text!). I feel it is much better than the Army Survival Manual (FM 3-05.70) and even has a slight edge over Wiseman’s SAS Survival Handbook (which is also excellent). Here is just a portion of what this 600 page manual contains: first aid for illness and injuryfinding your way without a mapbuilding a firefinding food and waterusing ropes and tying knotsmountain survivalconcealment techniquessignaling for helpsurvival at seabuilding sheltersanimal trackingpredicting the weatherand much more…
Kevin Ward – Writing an Academic book – Some Thoughts Posted by Sarah-Louise Quinnell Following on from my appearence on the panel at RGS Postgraduate Forum – Annual Conference Training Symposium (PGF-ACTS) last week I present the first of three posts from the speakers on publishing. Todays post looks at writing and academic book and is brought to you by Professor Kevin Ward. So, you’ve decided that you are going to write an academic book. 1. - Does the publisher produce the type of book that you want to write in your field? - Are hardback and paperback versions of the book published simultaneously? - What marketing and distribution system does the publisher have? - Does the publisher send out copies to academic journals for review? - Does the publisher attend large academic conferences and participate in book exhibitions? 2. 3. - What are the strengths and weaknesses of the proposed book? - Who is going to read it and who is going to buy it? - Is the author/editor the best person to produce this book? 4. 5. share
Ryan Holiday: How to Write Any Essay: The Spartan System Writing the perfect paper is a lot like a military operation. It takes discipline, foresight, research, strategy, and, if done right, ends in total victory. It follows then that the best advice for writing a paper -- be it a high school essay, a college research paper, or even an office memo at a Fortune 500 company -- would come from the tactics of a brilliant military commander. I discovered these tactics myself as a student, reading in awe of the mastery of ancient military masters and put them to good use. I could then -- and still can, when necessary -- bust out a ten or even twenty page paper with a few days notice. What Was My Secret? In my reading of Greek history, I stumbled across an obscure military maneuver, one designed for troops penetrating deep in enemy lines. My essay format works the same. Forget your teacher's boring prompt. Here is the outline for a hypothetical five paragraph paper: Introduction: (see a complete intro example here) Begin with a broad, conclusive hook.
How to bind your own Hardback Book The art of book binding is an ancient craft, but actually it is not very difficult to do and with almost no practice you can get really awesome results. If you are on the lookout for fun craft projects or quick ways of making nice presents and gifts, then this could be the project for you. I know that there are other Instructables on the art of book binding but this project is meant to be a simple quick project that will give a very acceptable finish, and a book that looks like it has been professionally made, yet without the need for any special equipment. All you will need is: Some paper Minimum really is about 32 A4 or US Letter sized sheets, to make a half A4 (half US Letter sized book), although smaller books can be made as can ones with more pages. You can use tracing paper, thick or thin paper and of course colored or even preprinted or written on paper. Some stiff cardboard or corrugated (fluted) cardboard Some fabric or leather Any old stuff will do for the cover.
Idaho Observer: How to remove mercury and other heavy metals from your body – safely and inexpensively From the September 2007 Idaho Observer: How to remove mercury and other heavy metals from your body – safely and inexpensively Due to the enormity of the problem of heavy metal poisoning in today’s world, and the fact that entire books have been written on this subject, this column will attempt to bring to light some of the methods people have successfully employed to regain their health without going bankrupt in the process. By Ingri Cassel In the July, 2007, Back to Basics column we covered the devastating effects of mercury poisoning and the fact that many Americans experience the effects of mercury being slowly released on a daily basis from dental fillings. Simply removing them is NOT a safe method. This is undoubtedly the most expensive part of detoxing from mercury—removing the source that is in your mouth. To check for the presence of heavy metals, many people still go by hair analysis. Chemistry professor Dr. Dr. Dr. The following is from Dr. Dr. www.autism.com www.toxicmetals.info

The 12 Habits of Highly Connective People Anil Dash at Gel 2011 from Gel Conference on Vimeo. I started the day watching this video from Gel 2011. I love stories like Anil Dash's because I experienced myself the power of networks. Especially after moving continents and starting from zero, alone. Few things give you more joy than doing a good deed. Understanding the importance and power of networks, combined with new tools is our lifeline. That's what true connections can do. A couple of months back, I wrote a post about follow through, which is the secret to successful networking. Make it a habit, and you will see how quickly it yields results. (1.) believe you can make a difference in case you were wondering if this is only touchy-feely, look at how Dana White built a UFC empire out of his desire to connect with fans. (2.) think knowledge as a service it's an overused expression, it really does apply. (3.) take risks they can be small ones. (4.) have a point with your view in other words, put substance behind the approach.

Personal Branding Done Right By Mike Myatt, Chief Strategy Officer, N2growth So what’s the big deal about personal branding? The mere mention of this topic sparks intense emotions and frothy debate. I have written often on the subject of personal branding, and some of my practice focuses on shaping the personal brands of executives and entrepreneurs. Want to build a strong personal brand? Let me break it down as simply as I can…There are two types of personal brands: 1.) To be clear, I have nothing against leveraging the positioning and promotion of real talent/ability, or up-and-coming talent/ability, but I have everything against blatant self-promotion by those who pretend to be something they are not. So what’s the big deal you ask? The reality is that most of us will probably never achieve the status of icons, nor do most of us really aspire to that end. The bottom line is that personal brands can not only co-exist quite nicely with corporate brands, but they can add significant value to them. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
