FOR REPRODUCTION, PLEASE CONTACT ALAN LLOYD VIA TFTW.ORG.UK Earl Jackson gets them jiving at the Dublin Castle (photos © Tony Annis) Cliff White speaks. a lot Tony Papard listens to the radio Tony Annis on the Dublin Castle Mr Angry gets profiled - not a pretty sight Soul Kitchen, Jazz Junction, Blues Rambling And more... 1 Hi Keith, I'm not sure you were alive in 1971 when the first issue of our first mag appeared. I thought you and TFTW might be interested (and even amused) to see a sample of it. Extract from my editorial: "Why do we call it "THE ROCK"? Because the music of the fifties/early sixties to us is "THE ROCK", not the so-called "Rock" of today. Because our interest in and love of it is as steady and as strong as a Rock." (Cringe) We hope you feel the same way." Well, we received some strange feedback. For example, the Blackpool Striped Rock Confectionery Co. wrote to us asking for free samples. Also, the Armada Club in Gibraltar requested copies to present to the Spanish Ambassador. Only joking... 43 years ago!! Yours, Neil Foster 2 That doggie in the window says: “ HOLD THE THIRD PAGE! and how much would you pay? ” Hi Gang. It is with much sadness that I commence my column for Issue 82. I know I speak for all the loyal attendees of our annual 2is Reunion/British Rock’n’Roll Heritage Show that we were so looking forward to having rhythm guitarist, singer and founding member of the Liverpool institution which is The Undertakers, Geoff Nugent, joining us for what would have been his debut on a Tales From The Woods show at the Borderline on Sunday 1st February 2015.

  • CHAPTER 4 Job Search Techniques
    CHAPTER 4 Job Search Techniques Getting Started Note: See Chapter 7, Employment Abroad, for specific job-search techniques for those going abroad. Once you have determined what kind of job you want, the next step is to find that job. Remember that a job-search is a job -- it must be taken seriously and given the priority it deserves. Getting Before beginning a job-search, there are certain things that you need. Organized • Your employment portfolio containing your important employment records. See Chapter 1, Introduction. • A completed resume and/or a Federal application package. See Chapter 9, Applications and Resumes. • Stationery for writing cover letters(Chapter 9), networking and informational interview requests (Chapter 4), thank you notes to send after interviews and networking contacts (Chapters 4 & 9). • Contact information: your mailing address, telephone number, e-mail address. Your telephone should have voice mail or an answering machine so that messages can be left. If you are in temporary lodgings or job-hunting in a new location, a post office box is a good idea. You might ask someone to act as a job coach for you. The purpose of a coach is to make sure that you are staying on track -- that you have a plan and a schedule and that you are making progress. Report to your coach regularly on your job-search activities and your future plans. An activity schedule and a job log may help you make the best use of your time during your job-search. Each week you schedule all your employment tasks (e.g., answer classified ads, go to an employment support meeting, call to check in with a network contact).

Along with the support of the Mayor’s Representative (Director, District Department of Transportation) the TSD provides leadership by developing, promoting, and coordinating programs; influencing public and private policy; and increasing public awareness of highway safety. Our partnerships include the Metropolitan Police Department, DC, Department of Motor Vehicles, Courts, and the University of the District of Columbia, hospitals, and private citizen organizations. The number of people killed in traffic crashes in the District of Columbia increased by four in 2005. This increased was due, in part, to speeding drivers and disobeying traffic signals. There were 49 traffic fatalities during 2005, up from 45 in 2004. The Planning and Administration program area includes those activities and costs necessary for the overall management and operations of the District of Columbia’s Highway Safety Office. The Chief of the Transportation Safety Division is responsible for the DC Highway Safety Program, and participates in activities that impact DDOT’s highway safety program and policies.
