There are several strains of acne that one must learn about if one is to become a beauty therapist, a dermatologist, a doctor or even a pharmacist. One must know the different strains so that they can prescribe the proper treatments to the person inflicted with the acne. One strain that we will […]



Getting ready for golf!

Sep 22nd, 2010 | By Eveloped Journalist | Category: Business Acumen

First off , when my friend asked me out for a Golf day - I wasnt sure where to start - I had nothing in the line of golf gear and I certainly didnt know the first thing about my swing. We got out to the course and a guy gave me 2 promotional tote […]



Reading between the lines is better than reading the signs

Sep 22nd, 2010 | By Eveloped Journalist | Category: Business Acumen

The sign said click here so I stood at the corner and began clicking my fingers expecting someone to run up to me with a microphone and a camera telling me I was on a candid camera type show. Of course it never happened. Maybe there was someone filming me making a total […]



The writing is on the note card

Sep 22nd, 2010 | By Eveloped Journalist | Category: Business Acumen

Having ordered some stationery for the office recently, I decided to treat myself and get some personalized note cards for home use. After I’d completed and processed my order I wondered what on earth I had just wasted my money on. I mean, it’s not like I write to anyone outside of […]

At the coffee dock in the office this morning, a notice on the board caught my eye. It was for an easy weight loss program. Not wanting to look too eager to learn more I casually pretended to be looking at a notice beside it which was something or other for sale. […]



Wiping the years away – if only it were that easy!

Sep 22nd, 2010 | By Eveloped Journalist | Category: Business Acumen

How do we decide to buy one product over another? How do we know which is the right choice for us? Those marketing people really have it sewn up haven’t they? Brainwashing us telling us what they perceive to be the best wrinkle lotion, the best this, the best that. I just tend […]



Dressing up to party is not my idea of fun

Sep 22nd, 2010 | By Eveloped Journalist | Category: Business Acumen

Does anyone out there know how to lose weight fast? I’ve a fancy dress coming up and I want to go as The Joker but I’m a bit on the large side for the only costume that I can track down. Right now, I’d be more suited to go as The Penguin. I’m […]



Learning a valuable lesson at a young age

Sep 22nd, 2010 | By Eveloped Journalist | Category: Business Acumen

When I was a young boy I wanted a pair of binocular so bad that I stole one from my cousin. Of course, my mother nearly hit the roof when she found out. Mainly because we lived more than an hour away and we were at home when she discovered […]



They’re not wrinkles, they’re proof I’ve lived.

Sep 22nd, 2010 | By Eveloped Journalist | Category: Business Acumen

What is it with women and botox? I was watching the news earlier and couldn’t get over the lack of movement on the news readers face. My brother pointed out that there isn’t a proven treatment for wrinkles but that botox seems to provide a temporary respite from the onset of wrinkles! […]
