The basics
Study abroad : Applying to University

Who can I ask to be a reference?

Whether as part of a university application or a job application, a reference is a key section which those reading the application will take into account when making their decision. After all, this is an impartial, third-party assessment of you, and is the only part of the application which you, the applicant, have no hand in writing.

Requirements for a reference

You should carefully read any requirements for the reference which are stated in the application. Often the university or company will ask for a specific type of referee to vouch for you, usually in relation to what you are applying for. Some requirements may include the following:

  • They must have known you for a substantial period of time (at least 2 years)
  • They must have known you as part of a professional or educational relationship
  • They themselves must be a professional of some kind, such as a doctor or policeman
  • They must have citizenship in the country

Asking someone to be a reference

You should always notify someone that you have put them forward as a reference for an application to anything, this is only manners. That way, they won’t be surprised by a call one day to ask about you, especially if they haven’t heard from you directly in years (would they even remember you?). They would also have time to prepare a worthy answer which captures who you are. Find out more about what you should do in our piece on reference letters.

Who to ask to be reference

Consider asking one of the following for a university or job application reference (note, that some may not be appropriate for certain applications):

Former school teachers, tutors and headmasters

When applying to university, you’ll likely be required to provide an academic reference as this is related to where you are applying to. Ideally this will be someone in the department or area for which you are hoping to study so they can talk about why you would be a good student in this subject at a higher level, as well as your work so far (Note: it might seem a bit odd to have a Theatre teacher provide a reference for you to study Business, but it might still work). It’s always useful to keep in touch with a teacher or tutor from each academic institution you have studied at (try and get a personal email address too in case they move on to another job, or ask to add them on Facebook once you have left that institution if you get on well with them).

Alternatively, there are many other staff members within the school community whom you can ask, such as student counsellors, office staff and even the headmaster/principal/dean/president (this would look really impressive!).

Doctor/Nurse/Medical professional

A family doctor or a nurse is not only a trusted, educated professional, but they may well have known you since you were a child if you have lived in the same area. Again, they are looked on highly in society for their roles and expertise. While they may not wish to mention it if isn’t relevant, they will appreciate any struggles you and your family have dealt with, such as death or illness, and they may choose to talk about how well you have dealt with these. If these have legitimately affected your academic or professional performance, then having someone to vouch for these would be useful.

Additionally, this may be a doctor or nurse who has treated someone close to you, who has gotten to know you over a period of time. This isn’t the most ideal reference though, and may only work for applications for passports, driving licences etc. when you’re really stuck.

Policeman/Local authority

Hopefully you won’t have come into contact with law enforcement individuals as part of their job, but you may well live next door to one. Authority figures are charged with the safety and protection of citizens and a reference from such a person would be looked on highly. While referees you know through personal relationships can sometimes be a grey area, they may still qualify so check. If you have performed work to make the local community a safer place (e.g. through a neighbourhood watch scheme), they can talk about this.

Community group members

Have you been a part of any community or social groups, especially as a volunteer? If so, the leader of said group can act as someone who has known you as a personal acquaintance, but they can also vouch for your professional skills if you have had a hand in event-planning as part of this group. They can talk about what this group does, which will offer a well-rounded picture of you as a person (i.e. what you’re passionate about etc.). If you are the leader of the group, this will look even better; you can either ask someone in the group to be a referee for you, or ask the person who appointed you for that role. Showing that you have given up your free time for these pursuits would be looked on highly.

Former employers

Even if you are young and applying to university, a reference from a former employer from a part-time job will show that you have been instilled with hard work ethic to earn your own money and take on responsibility besides your academic commitments. It’s an admirable quality in a young person, and they can promote simple skills you have, like being time-conscientious, solving problems and going that extra mile.

If you’re slightly older and applying for a job, then filling in the gaps in your employment history is essential. The person considering your application will want to know where you have worked, what you contributed to that organisation and why you concluded your employment. This is just one reason why you should aim not to be terminated for poor performance or misbehaviour, as it can follow you for years afterwards. Sometimes a co-worker can provide a reference, but someone higher in the company hierarchy would be preferred as they would be in a position to hire staff – the higher up, the better so think your line-manager, a director or even the owner/president/CEO.

Religious leaders

Religious leaders are pillars of any community and widely-trusted for their commitment, discretion and faith. If you have been a part of their congregation since childhood, they will have known you and your family intimately for at least 18 years. Plus, as someone who regularly attends a religious ceremony, they will have known you consistently for a long period of time, and can attest to you being a proactive member of a community through giving to charity, helping fellow worshippers, volunteering etc.

Other work acquaintances

If, for whatever reason, you can’t ask someone from within a company you’ve previously worked at, to act as a referee look through contacts you’ve made from other companies or organisations. Have you been in close communication with someone in another company? This may be someone you’ve attended professional events with or agreed deals with. Have you been asked to host a seminar or speak at an event as an expert? These are all instances where you may have done an exemplary job in a professional context, and your potential referee may indeed be in a very impressive position elsewhere now.

Owners of low-income housing tax credit (LIHTC) properties would have new options for estimating tenant utility costs under a set of proposed regulations being weighed by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS).

The long-awaited proposal comes after the IRS received comments from organizations representing owners, developers, tenants, nonprofit housing groups, housing credit agencies, and others, stating that the existing methods often result in flawed information being used for rent adjustments.

If utilities are paid by a tenant, a utility allowance must be built into the rent, meaning that an owner must deduct the estimated utility costs when establishing the rent that is charged to a tenant. The methods used for calculating the figures, however, tend to overestimate them. This could mean reduced rents to owners, which could ultimately hurt the financial feasibility of a project, said industry groups.

Owners say that the public housing authority (PHA) utility schedules that are often used do not reflect the proper usage of utilities for LIHTC units. This is because the PHA schedules are designed for Sec. 8 properties, which are older buildings with higher utility costs. LIHTC properties tend to be newer. Also, property owners are often unable to obtain local utility estimates due to a lack of data or an unwillingness on the part of the utility companies to provide information.

The IRS proposal would give property owners new options in estimating utility costs, including using estimates from LIHTC allocating agencies. Owners could also calculate utility allowances using the Department of Housing and Urban Development’s new utility modeling program.

HANO Settles Lawsuit

The Greater New Orleans Fair Housing Action Center and tenant Dasha Corner settled a lawsuit in July that claimed that the Housing Authority of New Orleans (HANO) and HRI Properties allowed HANO employees and other unqualified people to live in 63 units for about a year after Hurricane Katrina at a rate designed solely for low-income residents.

Corner claimed she was approved for a two-bedroom unit at River Garden Apartments, a HOPE VI development.

The property formerly was the site of the St. Thomas housing complex, which was demolished in 2000 and redeveloped as River Garden Apartments.

U.S. District Court Judge Peter Beer ordered that HANO and HRI Properties give preference to former St. Thomas residents at River Garden Apartments and detailed a rigorous application process. HANO and HRI deny any wrongdoing.

At press time, HRI was seeking to force HANO to pay court costs.

Foreclosure Prevention Campaign Launched

Neighborworks America and the Ad Council joined forces to launch a public awareness campaign aimed at preventing home foreclosures.

Television and radio public service announcements began airing in July, with print and Internet spots following.

The campaign urges homeowners in financial trouble to call (888) 995- HOPE. The Homeowner’s HOPE hotline, a counseling service provided by the Homeownership Preservation Foundation, is the cornerstone of a foreclosure prevention effort involving many of the country’s largest mortgage companies.

The foundation recently reported receiving about 750 calls a day.

“Homeowners are facing foreclosure at record rates,” said Colleen Hernandez, foundation president and executive director. “This issue reaches into every social and economic demographic out there, and homeowners facing delinquency need to remember that they’re not alone.”

The hotline received 30,000 calls in the second quarter of 2007, double the amount of calls received in the first quarter.

Employers Feel the Lack of Affordable Housing

A Shortage of affordable housing often means that workers have to commute longer distances to get to work.

This is a concern for the business community, especially larger employers, according to survey results released by the Urban Land Institute.

The survey was taken to gauge perceptions by employers and commuters regarding the impact of long distances between housing and jobs on business operations and workers’ quality of life.

More than 300 firms from across the nation responded. The survey polled employers from three groups: those with fewer than 50 employees, those with 50 to 100 employees, and those with more than 100 employees. The largest companies consistently reported the greatest awareness of problems resulting from long commutes and the lack of affordable housing, including high turnover.

The survey found that:

  • 55 percent of the firms with 100-plus employees reported a lack of affordable housing near their location.
  • 67 percent of the larger companies that acknowledged a lack of affordable housing believe that it is having a negative impact on their ability to retain qualified entry- and mid-level employees.
  • 58 percent of the larger companies reported having lost employees at least in part due to long commutes.
  • 69 percent of the larger companies believe a long commute time increases employee stress; 63 percent believe it triggers negative emotions; 48 percent said it causes more absenteeism; and 46 percent said it contributes to employee turnover.
  • 36 percent of the larger companies believe it is important to be actively involved in providing employee access to affordable housing.

McKinney Act Turns 20

Advocates for the homeless marked the 20th anniversary of the Stewart B. McKinney Homeless Assistance Act in July.

The act, which was later renamed the McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act in honor of the late Rep. Bruce Vento (D-Minn.), was intended to be the first step in addressing homelessness. Twenty years later, it remains the only major coordinated federal response to the problem, according to the National Law Center on Homelessness & Poverty.

Advocates passed out bittersweet chocolate bars to members of Congress to mark the anniversary as well as call for continued support. The House of Representatives passed a resolution recognizing the act in July.

The Department of Housing and Urban Development reported that McKinney-Vento programs administered by the department this year will award about $1.5 billion to support local housing and service programs.

Perry Deep

It's a shame the new El Palacio Cafe and Club didn't open its doors a few weeks earlier. Oscar Perry's deep, smooth voice and penchant for singing about love's ups and downs would have made him an ideal grand-opening headliner for Valentine's Day. Despite his impeccable blues credentials, the Houston native's voice makes comparisons to soul love-meisters such as Isaac Hayes and Mighty Sam McLain inevitable.

Perry's most recent CDs, Still Blue from a few years ago and I'm a Brand New Man from a few months ago, both showcase his tender but powerful bass vocals, as well as guitar skills that have been honed over decades of working with some truly remarkable talents. Perry was still in junior high at Wortham Middle School in 1958 when he made his first recording. (If you happen to have a copy of "True Confession" on the Leejay label, Perry would probably swap you a new CD for that old 45.) Then came years of what he calls "those $8 gigs," playing bass behind Third Ward lap-steel virtuoso "Papa Hop" Wilson at clubs such as the Big Tree and the Oak Grove. Perry then toured East Texas with Johnny Copeland's Soul Agents ("Every Dog's Got His Day" on Copeland's Catch Up with the Blues is a Perry creation from that era) before settling down as a session player, A&R man and songwriter for Houston's Duke/Peacock records, where he worked on a daily basis with Joe Scott, the classically trained conductor and arranger who shaped Peacock's full, urban sound. Several of Perry's songs were recorded by Duke superstar Bobby "Blue" Bland, while many of the Joe Medwick-penned tunes that made Bland famous were actually first recorded by Perry. "Bobby didn't like Joe Medwick, at all," remembers Perry. "He wouldn't even record a song if he had heard Joe sing it, so when Don Robey bought a song from Joe, I'd cut a demo on it for Bobby to listen to while he was learning the tune."

Perry then took his various talents to Sugar Hill studio, where he worked as A&R director for Huey Meaux. Meaux leased several of Perry's soulful ballads to Mercury Records in the early 1970s; "Mother, Can Your Child Come Home?" was listed by Billboard as "New Record of the Week" when it was released, and "You Can't Mend a Broken Heart" proved the best seller -- at least so far -- of Perry's career. His recent self-produced CDs, and his live shows, display Perry as an impressive, mature and polished artist who has learned well a lifetime's worth of lessons. It's frankly baffling that we still have plenty of opportunities to see the large man with the large voice up close and personal around town -- this is a talent that, in a fair world, would be coming home infrequently to play much larger stages. But life, as we all know, isn't fair; as Perry puts it when describing his approach to songwriting, "If you tell the truth about life you'll get the blues." Go check Perry out, and go with someone you'd like to love. The man's voice is a stiff aphrodisiac. -- Jim Sherman

Oscar Perry performs at 9 p.m. Saturday, March 9, at El Palacio Cafe and Club, 3512 Main. Tickets are $3. For info, call 522-5041.

Upcoming Events

Guitar Summit -- The promoters would have you believe that this is a real sit-down meeting of the masters: guitarists Stanley Jordan, Jorma Kaukonen, Manuel Barrueco and Kenny Burrell -- each renowned for his respective style -- coming together in intimate surroundings for a communal display of virtuoso technique. Be careful not to get your hopes up too high, though; there's only a brief on-stage union planned for Tuesday's show at Rockefeller's. Aside from a "surprise" encore at the end of the night, each artist will do his set alone and depart in an orderly fashion, which may be a disappointment to those who took the "summit" tag literally.

It should be an illuminating show anyway, given the unarguable appeal of its participants. Jordan's commercial peak came in the mid-'80s with Magic Touch, a debut that exposed his revolutionary string-tapping, two-handed technique to a massive legion of listeners. With that number-one jazz CD as an auspicious starting point, Jordan has gone on to earn three Grammy nominations and expand into electronic and computer-generated music, though with nowhere near the success of his more straightforward jazz outings. Jorma Kaukonen, on the other hand, began his career in coffeehouses around San Francisco before going on to be an integral part of Jefferson Airplane and, later, Hot Tuna. A folkie at heart, Kaukonen over the years developed an affinity for the finger-picking Piedmont style of blues, which -- along with his strong ties to folk and rock -- is the cornerstone of his decades-old acoustic vision.

Manuel Barrueco is a classical guitarist who's as trailblazing as he is tradition-minded. Barrueco is accustomed to playing symphony halls; seeing his artistry on a small stage should be a rare treat. Kenny Burrell, an accomplished and feeling practitioner of styles ranging from funk to Latin to bebop, has recorded with a long list of jazz legends. His accomplished grace on-stage is a testament to three decades as a beacon of both innovation and consistency in the jazz idiom.

So while the lineup alone warrants the Guitar Summit's rather steep ticket price, seeing everyone together for more than a single song -- say an hour or so of Jordan, finger-man extraordinaire, trading licks with former Airplane kingpin Kaukonen, as 30-year jazz veteran Burrell strums along and Barrueco awaits periodic opportunities to lay into an aching classical run up and down the strings -- would be worth double that. Ah well, it never hurts to dream. At Rockefeller's, 3620 Washington Avenue, Tuesday, March 12, at 7 and 9:30 p.m. Tickets are $20, $32 and $37.50. 869-8427. (Hobart Rowland)

Countdown to 2013 King of Content: 9. Jacoby Jones

Recent history has not been kind to the Houston Texans when it comes to either former Baltimore Ravens coming to Houston or the Texans cutting players loose and seeing them wind up in Baltimore.

The Ed Reed saga was chronicled in detail in the most recent "King of Content" post -- Hall of Fame career in Baltimore, washed out after seven games played in Houston.

With talent heading the other way, Houston to Baltimore, well, those guys all got crowned (in a good way) at the end of last season. Vonta Leach continued to perform at a Pro Bowl level at fullback and got a ring. Bernard Pollard continued to play his very limited box safety game with a side dish of constant shit talk and got a ring.

And then there's Jacoby Jones, who was run out of Houston on a rail after a disastrous muffed punt in a January 2012 playoff game (ironically, in Baltimore) and went to Baltimore, became a big play machine in the 2012 post season and, yes, got a ring.

But Jacoby Jones got so much more.

Jacoby Jones was able to ride a couple of huge plays in the Super Bowl (a long touchdown reception right before halftime and a touchdown return of the opening kickoff of the second half) and the touchdown dances that went along with them to mainstream relevance.

Ask any Texans fan what kind of odds he or she would have given you in January 2012 that a year from then, Jacoby Jones would wind up on the cover of Sports Illustrated, wind up as a hilarious guest on Jimmy Kimmel Live! and wind up in the final three on Dancing With the Stars within just a few months of a record-breaking Super Bowl performance.

5,000 to 1? 500,000 to 1? 5 trillion to 1?

Seriously, it was one of the most bizarre "deal with the devil" eight-month periods we've ever seen in sports history. (And appropriately enough, none of Jones's exploits in the Super Bowl would have even been possible were it not for a huge play to save the Denver divisional round game by...yes, you guessed it, Jacoby Jones!)

Of course, the crash back down to earth was just as "Jacoby" as his rise to relevance was improbable. Nursing a knee injury that he sustained colliding with teammate Brynden Trawick on a fair catch, Jacoby's crash landing was sealed with a champagne bottle upside the head from something called a Sweet Pea (she's a stripper, or a prostitute, or something) while riding a party bus for then teammate Bryant McKinnie's birthday.

The bottle seemed to serve as a metaphorical recalibration, sending Jacoby Jones back from whence he came for good -- an unproductive, nondescript wide receiver on an average NFL team.

That's the Jacoby Jones Texans fans had come to know and love!

Jones was featured in five posts this past year, good enough for ninth on the "King of Content" list. Here they are:

February 4, 2013: Super Bowl XLVII: 4 Winners, 4 Losers February 6, 2013:Jacoby Jones' Revenge Tour 2013 Continues With A Sports Illustrated Cover February 8, 2013: Jacoby Jones' Appearance On Jimmy Kimmel Live Was Jacoby-tastic!! (w/ VIDEO) September 24, 2013: Jacoby Jones' Deal With The Devil Ends In A Pool Of His Own Blood September 27, 2013: Sweet Pea vs Jacoby Epilogue: Jacoby Jones Apologizes For Doing Nothing Wrong

HISD Headmaster’s Future in Question

Supporters rally around Houston School District Superintendent Dr. Abelardo Saavedra as the school board decides whether his performance warrants renewal of his contract. Pat Hernandez has the story.

Before the board met in executive session, a gathering of prominent Hispanic leaders met in front of HISD headquarters to express their concern over the future of Superintendent  Abe Saavedra. The main focus of the meeting  was a training session for trustees, but the meeting agenda that drew the attention of Saavedra supporters was a closed door discussion of the superintendent’s performance.

image of Dr. Laura Murillo, president of the Houston Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, spoke before the board.

“The timing of this board could not be worse. Dr. Saavedra is leading the school district from recovery from Hurricane Ike. The entire city is recovering from the hurricane. The last thing this city needs now, is instability with the superintendent of this city. This very board has nominated him as region-4 superintendent of the year for his work.”

Jorge Mancilla a recent graduate of the University of Houston said Saavedra has helped to create a college bound attitude for students leaving high school.

“Participation has grown during his tenure and with what we’re doing, you could see a definite change in attitude and hope for these students, so they achieve things that they want. The departure of Dr. Saavedra and his leadership would be a massive void not only for the educational system but also for our community.”

The school board must notify Saavedra by tomorrow if it decides not to extend his 300-thousand dollar contract.

by Susan Twombly, April 2009

Cropped-off margins. Scrambled layouts. Endless, extra pages. Printing from the web can be a battle between the page you see and the print you get.

If you’re one of 130 million MySpace™ users who think printing from the web is just too much trouble, it’s time to try printing again.

What’s new?

Thanks to an agreement between HP and MySpace, you can now click on a “print” button on MySpace pages to get a print-ready version of what you see there -- including photos, blogs and comments from friends. And, you can choose only the images or pages you want to print: What you select on the screen is what you see on the print out.

With this new capability, billions of images on the most trafficked website in the U.S. are finally freed for sharing in the real world.

How is it different?

The difference is that you can print directly from MySpace. For example, if you want to print a photo, there’s no need to save the image to a hard drive first. Sure, you can use your browser or the “print screen” option on your keyboard to print, but why would you when you can simply click the “print” button? (Dude, it’s easier, do it.)

What about the trees?

With the new “print” button, you can print and save paper and ink. Since you can select only what you want to print, you use less paper. And, because you can remove navigation, banners, dark images, backgrounds and other content from the print, you save ink. Request free postage paid shipping material from for your HP inkjet or LaserJet print cartridges or return them to an HP Authorized Retail Location such as Staples for responsible recycling through HP Planet Partners.

OK, I can print. Now what?

That’s up to you, because it’s all about being able to experience your photos, blogs and friends’ comments in new ways you may have not thought about before.

For example, since sharing photos is one of the most popular activities on MySpace, having the capability to print them opens up a world of possibilities and new ways to express yourself.

Express yourself in new ways

And, you can print photos from your own profile, as well as those from other profiles. So, if your band, club or other type of group has a MySpace profile, this gives you a great way to let people print your photos to boost your promotional efforts.

You can also use MySpace photos to create and print creative projects, like photo cubes of your friends and family for gifts or mementos of special events in your life.

With the new “print” button, you not only have the power to print, you have the power to do more with your MySpace content – your way.

Strategy, people skills and focus are the three attributes leaders value in the boardroom

Add a comment

Three quarters (75%) ranked having a "strategic vision" as the single most important skill in running a business, with building a strong team the second most important attribute and sustaining focus the third vital skill, research from training provider The Leadership Team, has revealed.

But almost a third of business owners (30%) do not enjoy being a leader in the current economic climate. Just over half (51%) described their work/life balance as only "OK" with 35% labelling it good and 12% very good.

Some 51% of business owners are working more than 50 hours a week with 4% working as many as 80 hours.

Almost a quarter (23%) said their business was currently either "treading water" or "declining slightly" with 51% more upbeat claiming they were "growing slightly" and 25% even more bullish saying their company was "growing rapidly".

Looking ahead, only 4% of owners were "very optimistic" about the prospects for the UK economy in the next 2-3 years, while 41% were "optimistic", 27% saw "no change", 22% were "pessimistic" and 6% "very pessimistic".

Asked what they felt they were best at, 41% said strategy, 31% opted for managing people, 14% said sales, 10% marketing and just 4% financial management.

Asked who they most admired in business, a quarter (25%) said Virgin tycoon Sir Richard Branson, 8% opted for former Tesco boss Sir Terry Leahy while 5% chose Sir Alan Sugar.

Many other business leaders received single mentions including Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg, the late Apple founder Steve Jobs, retail bosses Sir Stuart Rose and Justin King, golfer Jack Nicklaus and former Dragons Den star James Caan.

The only women leaders to receive a mention were Dame Anita Roddick, the late founder of the Body Shop, and Chrissie Rucker, who launched The White Company.

The survey of 600 business leaders was carried out by The Leadership Team, which provides leadership development for chief executives, managing directors and directors from the region's foremost companies.

Jerry Hopkins, founder of The Leadership Team, said: "The survey's findings show that many business owners are finding life tough and lonely at the top in the present economic climate and the majority see either no change or things getting worse over the next couple of years.

"However, it is also clear that business owners believe that having a strong vision, being able to maintain focus in difficult conditions and building a strong team around them will be hugely important in determining just how successful they are over the coming years."

Rename Victoria Day To 'Victoria And First Peoples Day' Petition Features Prominent Canadians

Posted: Updated:

A group that includes some prominent Canadian actors, writers and politicians is calling on Prime Minister Stephen Harper to change the name of Victoria Day.

Author Margaret Atwood, Green Party leader Elizabeth May and actor Gordon Pinsent are among those behind an online petition to rename the public holiday, which is celebrated on Monday, as "Victoria and First Peoples Day."

Peter Keleghan, an actor and spokesman for the group, says the new name would give Canadians a chance to honour both the Crown and the indigenous peoples of Canada.

"I know there is a great deal of monarchists in this country but I think also that there is also an awful lot of talk about how First Nations people, Inuit people, indigenous people in this country are being treated," he said Sunday.

Victoria Day marks the birthday of Queen Victoria and is celebrated every year on the last Monday before May 25. Quebec celebrates National Patriots' Day on the same day, to honour the rebellion against the British in 1837.

There is already a day to honour Canada's indigenous peoples, but Keleghan pointed out it's not recognized as a federal public holiday.

National Aboriginal Day is celebrated every year on June 21.

Keleghan said the group is trying to spread the word about the proposed name change on social media. He's hopeful the message will gain traction in the days to come.

The petition, which is posted on the group's website,, calls on Harper to recognize the country's history.

"For centuries, Canadians, the First Nations, the Inuit, and the Metis have had a close affinity with the British Monarchy," the petition says.

"The newly named holiday would be an opportunity to commemorate that venerable relationship, to celebrate unique Indigenous cultures, to revisit our shared history, and to provide an opportunity for all Canadians to participate in the diverse and extraordinary heritage of our country."

Singer-songwriter Susan Aglukark, one-time NDP leadership candidate Brian Topp and Thomas King, an author who often writes on First Nations issues, have also signed the petition.

Walking To School Alone: How To Prep Your Kids For This Big Step

Posted: Updated:

School is back and for many families this is the big year: the year their kids are going to start walking to school alone! It’s both a scary and exciting milestone. How do we make sure our children are ready? What do they need to know to be safe?

Here is a plan to make sure you hit this milestone prepared:

1. Deciding on their readiness

You, and only you, can make the final decision on when your child is ready to walk to school alone. You can expect to see other children beginning this walk around age nine to 11 or grades 4 to 6.

Some children are less attentive and more impulsive. Some intersections are very difficult to cross safely, while others are benign and have crossing guards. You as a parent are responsible for making sure your child is street proofed and trained properly to handle the challenges of their route. The sooner you begin, the sooner they will be ready.

2. Develop safe pedestrian skills

To ensure your child is ready to walk to school alone, practice safety skills. Do they cross only at intersections? Do they watch and wait for the light to change colours at intersections? Do they look both ways before stepping into the street regardless if the light is green? Are they able to estimate the speed of an oncoming car? Do they understand that while they may have the right of way, they can’t assume that cars can see or notice them? Are they aware of cars coming out of alleys or making turns? Do they know to walk instead of run and move in predictable ways so that drivers can anticipate their direction?

Parents can use the first part of the school year to review these skills and allow their children to practice them independently while you walk behind them, but still in ear and eye-shot. If you are looking for supporting curriculum to ensure you have everything covered off, check out this website.

3. The case against cell phones

While parents say they would feel better if their child had a cell phone on them, walking with electronics creates its own hazards. Children need to pay attention to their surroundings and let’s face it phones, texting and listening to music with earbuds all distract. Electronics can also be stolen, making your child a vulnerable target.

Instead, why not consider making a plan for how your child can get access to help if they need to? Are there familiar houses on the street that they could make a call from? A gas station or convenience store where an employee could help them place a call? So many people have cell phones, they could probably just borrow one if needed.

4. Walking buses

A recent report on the activity level of Canadian children cited that we are among the most enabling of nations when it comes to driving our children around. The researchers recommend increasing children’s daily activity level by encouraging children to walk to and from school instead of getting rides.

One way to encourage young walkers is to create walking school buses. The idea is that a group of students walk together with one parent supervising the whole group to ensure safety.

Moving from a ratio of 1:1 supervision to 1:6 is a good stepping stone to autonomy and ensures your kid is getting exercise and socializing.

5. Parking lot safety

Even if you encourage your child to walk to school independently, many of their fellow students will still be getting a ride. That means that the area around the school drop-off zone and parking lot is a very busy place with poor visibility. For more accident safety advice, review the tips and information here.

6. Stranger danger

Abduction by a stranger in Canada is exceedingly rare. Most missing children have run away from home or are taken by a non-custodial parent. Still, we have to ensure our children have safety rules to keep them safe from both people they know and don’t know. Check out the safety rules I suggest here.

Nine High-Protein Snacks for Men on the Go

Posted: Updated:

Busy men are always looking for nutritious snacks to eat when they are on the go. Unfortunately, many of you end up grabbing high-carb, high-fat and low-protein convenience store snacks, which are terrible nutritional choices.

Although the opinions of experts vary greatly as to how much protein men should consume on a daily basis, the generally accepted figure is one gram of protein per 2.2 pounds of body weight. Therefore, a 180-pound man should get about 82 grams of protein in his diet each day.

If you're one of the many men who doesn't manage to meet this minimum requirement, or if you're simply looking for some alternative nutritious snack ideas, read on: The following nine high-protein snacks require little preparation and are generally low in both carbohydrates and fat.

1. Beef jerky
Believe it or not, this old classic is actually a healthy choice. On average, one ounce contains about 70 calories and one gram of fat, but delivers 11 grams of protein. However, the brands sold in convenience stores are often high in salt. If you'd like beef jerky to be one of your high-protein snack options, look for healthier versions in health food stores.

2. Egg whites
One egg white has only 15 calories, is fat -- and-cholesterol-free and contains four grams of protein. Throw two or three in a pan (with some peppers and onions if you want to make an omelette) for a quick, nutritious mini-meal.

3. Cottage cheese and fruit
A half cup of 2 per cent cottage cheese contains on average 16 grams of protein, yet only has 102 calories and two grams of fat (as opposed to other types of cheese, which can be extremely high in fat). If high protein isn't your ideal goal, then mix it with some fresh fruit for a fast, healthy snack.

4. Tuna
Tuna is a great source of protein with approximately 25 grams per can. Plus, one can of tuna in water contains approximately 111 calories and is fat-free. And hey, go easy on the mayonnaise if you're making a sandwich -- it's full of fat.

5. Protein bars
Although there are hundreds of varieties on the market, keep in mind that all protein bars are not created equal. Obviously, protein bars should be a high-protein snack, but be careful and avoid bars that are high in carbohydrates and fat. A good choice is DESIGNER WHEY Protein Bars: each 75-gram bar contains a full 30 grams of protein, with only six grams of carbs and five grams of fat.

6. Shakes
As with protein bars, many commercial protein shakes and powders can be high in carbohydrates. Advanced Protein, which delivers 20 grams of protein, two grams of fat and only two grams of carbs per scoop, is perfect for guys who work out.

You can also make your own high-protein shake without protein powder.

Blend the following ingredients:

  • 2 cups natural soy milk (Make sure it doesn't have any added sugar. The only ingredients should be soy and distilled water.)
  • 3 egg whites
  • 1 banana (Or another fruit of your choice.)
  • 1 tbsp natural peanut butter (It only contains peanuts and oil -- no preservatives -- available in health food stores and some grocery stores.)
  • 2 tbsps flax powder (Or 2 tsps flax seed oil.)
  • 1/3 cup rolled oats

7. Lentils
Although they may not seem appetizing on their own, putting a handful of them in your soup or salad will give your snack a protein boost. One cup of lentils has about 230 calories, one gram of fat and 18 grams of protein.

8. Peanut butter
If you loved peanut butter and jelly sandwiches as a kid, you're in luck: One tablespoon contains about four grams of protein, eight grams of fat and 95 calories. For an energy boost, spread it on a slice of whole-wheat bread (60 calories and one gram of fat) and top it with banana slices.

9. Oatmeal
According to Aubyn Garstang, a certified personal trainer, many men who train hard favor oatmeal for its balance of protein and good carbohydrates, which gives them the energy necessary to make it through an intense workout. One packet of instant oatmeal has about five grams of protein, 105 calories and two grams of fat. You can eat it alone or add some cinnamon to the mix.

A question of balance
No matter how busy you are, it's really not that difficult to eat nutritious, high-protein snacks. If you keep a few cans of tuna and some eggs in your fridge at all times, you'll have some healthy alternatives to fatty junk foods like chips and chocolate bars.

However, keep in mind that your body does need a certain amount of carbohydrates, which is the main source of energy for working muscles and other bodily functions. Therefore, you shouldn't try to eliminate carbs completely, especially if you work out.

The key is to eat a balanced diet that includes lean protein, minimally refined carbs (whole grain pasta, whole grain rice), simple carbs (raw fruits and vegetables), and a small amount of fat in order to provide your body with all the nutrients and energy needed to function at your best capacity.

A Lawyer's Take On Estate Planning In Your Second Marriage

Posted: Updated:
JAY DIRECTO via Getty Images

It is not uncommon for people to have more than one spouse or common-law partner in the course of their lives. Someone who is getting married for a second time, whether because of the death of a first spouse or following divorce, likely has an understanding of the legal implications of marriage. Dealing with the estate of a spouse or the division of assets after a breakdown of marriage illustrates how building a common life as a married couple creates legal entitlements and obligations.

In a situation where one or both spouses have been previously married, a trip together to the lawyer to prepare wills might be a familiar exercise. It might come as a surprise to the couple that making an estate plan for a second marriage is a very different endeavor than that exercise within the context of a first marriage, from the lawyer’s point of view.

Estate planning for a couple where one or both have children from a previous relationship is more difficult than estate planning for a couple with no children or who share children. The task becomes more complex where a step-parent treats a spouse’s child as their own, where the couple has or plans to have children together, or where there is a significant age gap between the children from the first relationship and the second.

It is important to be as clear as possible with the lawyer who is assisting in creating or updating an estate plan about any potential sources of tension.

For example, children from a first relationship might resent a step-parent, step-siblings or half-siblings for real or perceived favouritism. A surviving spouse might feel entitled to their deceased spouse’s estate after death and challenge any restrictions placed on their inheritance that benefits the late spouse’s former family.

These very common blended-family situations can create tension that can explode into estate litigation if the drafting solicitor is not very careful. While it is common for one lawyer to accept a “joint retainer” for young and childless couples, some lawyers may refuse joint retainers for couples who are blending their families and who wish to name children of a prior relationship as residuary beneficiaries of their estates after the death of their surviving spouse.

Instead, a solicitor might act for one spouse while referring the other to another solicitor for independent legal advice. Even solicitors who feel such an arrangement might reflect an overabundance of caution will take special steps in estate planning for blended families.

A common practice for estate planning within the context of a second marriage is to provide a “life estate” to the surviving spouse, and a “gift over” to the testator’s children. That means, for example, that when dad dies, the matrimonial home and all of his money are held in trust for his widow for life, during which time she is able to make use of these assets without the right to bequeath them to beneficiaries of her own estate. The surviving spouse may live in the house, spend the income from dad’s money, and depending on the terms of the will, encroach on the invested residue of her predeceasing spouse’s estate.

Even a relatively simple spousal trust arrangement involves comprehensive planning before death. It may make administering the estate more expensive and complex, as final distribution of the estate is postponed indefinitely and a trustee must administer the life interest. The trust arrangement may, in itself, give rise to conflict, if the surviving spouse believes that he or she ought to receive an interest in the estate without limitations.

It is important to be as clear as possible with the lawyer who is assisting in creating or updating an estate plan about any potential sources of tension. Understanding how the dynamics of your blended family might affect the administration of the estate will help the lawyer draft a will that serves the needs of your specific family and eliminate potential sources of conflict. Communicating to all interested parties about what to expect after the death of each spouse can also help ease tensions and avoid surprises after death that often lead to estate battles.

Catwalk Review: David Koma Spring/Summer 2012

21/09/2011 17:18 | Updated 22 May 2015
Catwalk Review: David Koma Spring/Summer 2012David Koma Spring/Summer 2012. Photo:PA

WHO? David Koma

IN A NUTSHELL: Focusing on 'the body as a canvas', the collection was inspired by tribal body paint and the works of contemporary artist Kim Joon. So think sheer 'second skin' tattoo designs, set against zulu-warrior shredded leather skirts and body-conscious dresses - in a colour palette of black and white with pops of neon.

BEG, BORROW OR STEAL: The opening set of white dresses demonstrated a slightly more commercial, wearable side to David Koma than we've seen in collections past - we'd happily rock any one of them come summer. The finale pieces - black, futuristic, hologram panels, structured perspex - were more textbook Koma: real works of art that you could imagine the likes of Beyonce or Kylie rocking on stage. (Both of whom, coincidentally, are already firm David Koma fans.)

F-ROW: Die-hard fashionistas, editors, press and buyers. It was a full house. (We were half hoping for a Cheryl Cole appearance, but were left disappointed.)

VERDICT: The closing show at London Fashion Week is never an easy slot to fill - weary, bleary-eyed fashionistas make for a tough audience - but David Koma brought the house down with his utterly seamless collection, met by resounding cheers and one of the loudest, longest rounds of applause we've witnessed in a while. A truly fitting end to London Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2012.

Chelsea V Juventus Champions League Preview: The Blues' 2-2 Draw In 2009 (VIDEO)

19/09/2012 14:01

Chelsea's sole meeting with Juventus on the continent ahead of Wednesday night's clash came during the Blues' route to that heartbreaking semi-final defeat on away goals to Barcelona in the 2008/09 Champions League round-of-16.

One-nil up from the first leg at Stamford Bridge - naturally courtesy of the talismanic Didier Drogba - the Blues fell behind twice at Juve's interim home, the Stadio Olimpico, but twice recovered thanks to Michael Essien and Drogba.

Vincenzo Iaquinta and the iconic Alessandro del Piero both registered for Juve, meaning that tonight's fixture is bereft of the game's four goalscorers three-and-a-half-years on.

For the Bianconeri, it marks the last time they played in the knockout phase of the competition. Their shock elimination at the group stage the following campaign pre-dated their two-year absence from the Champions League.

But now Italy's most successful domestic side are back after winning last season's Scudetto without losing a game.
