Moustache Research Papers
By now, many of you have noticed that I have been growing a moustache since the beginning of November. Fortunately, a few members of our team have joined me, as Joe’s and Ty’s moustaches are beginning to strengthen as well, so I’m not the only one!

The reason I grow a moustache every November is to support a charity called The Movember Foundation. The Movember Foundation is a charity that I’m really supportive of because of the work they’re doing to address some of the biggest men’s health issues, such as prostate cancer, testicular cancer, and mental health and suicide prevention.

Additionally, as many of you know, in addition to being a student at U of M, I’m a full time referee in USA Hockeys Officiating Development Program (the ODP). Every year, the members of the ODP, and many in the hockey community, grow moustaches to raise awareness for Movember. Although we’ve raised awareness, we’ve never actually made a tangible impact by raising money. I

For those of you that didn’t know I was doing this, or haven’t asked me about it, I’d really appreciate it if you would consider making a donation. On a personal note, It’s a cause I’m really passionate about because of the work they’re doing specifically with mental health/suicide awareness. It’s an issue that I’ve seen affect two of my close friends at school, and can just as easily affect any one of us, our friends, family or loved ones. I also that I think unfairly gets stigmatized, and I think this should change; so I’m glad Team MoDP will be able to make a small impact and help Movember raise the most amount of money possible.

Additionally, Gary Taverna sent me a link where any donations of “$50 or more, up to $1,000” made to 501(c)(3)’s, like Movember, will be matched by U.S. Bank after entering your donation into the following

    Charles Haddon Spurgeon once said, “Growing a beard is a habit most natural, Scriptural, manly, and beneficial” (Dennis). Like most of Spugeon’s work, this statement has sound validity behind it. Beards come naturally to men, and as men, we must allow this process to take place. We do not shave our legs, arms, or eyebrows, so why would we want to shave our natural all-purpose filter that is our beard. Beards are meant to be grown and enjoyed, do not allow your face to be robbed of a God-given gift by not sporting one. Decide to embark upon this virile task of a beard, because growing a beard allows you to look manly, save money, and it is biblical.…

    The moustache made Mike feel older, he thought if he had it he would have more of a say or treated differently. It also was the symbol of the story. When it was there Mike took on the type of worries that no teenage boy should have. It was almost as though the moustache was able to make Mike different or older in a way. No one was really on his side when he had it, but when it was gone all those struggles he had with people seemed to go away. He was able to be his 17 year old self with no worries. It was almost as though the author was trying to convey that type of thinking to the readers. In the beginning of the story Mike comes downstairs after being forced to go to his grandmother’s nursing home. His mother checks to see how he looks and states, “I still say a seventeen-year-old has no business wearing a moustache.” She then goes on to say how “It’s costing you money, Mike,” and although Mike knew of this he continued to want it. You could tell that the moustache meant something to him and he didn’t want to shave it off because he obviously liked it. In a way he was trying to prove that he was older and could manage what older people are able to manage. Although the moustache had continued to give the boy trouble, he wanted to keep it. Sometimes in life people want to be able to make their own…

    1940 Halo Hat

    I’ve been waiting to show you this project for a long time and I finally got my hair to work out long enough (thanks to a sideways clipped bang extension) to take a decent photo of my finished hat (above) so that I could complete the post. I’m not entirely sure what you would call this style of hat exactly. I know that it resembles a “halo hat”, but a true halo hat has a band almost like a huge beret, so that’s not it. I’m going to go with “1940’s large brim hat”. I became inspired to try this out when I was at the thrift store a couple of weeks ago and saw a hat partially sticking out from under one of the racks. It was covered in dust and looked like it had been kicked all around the store before it ran and hid under some hanging sweaters.…

    I feel like hats need to be worn because it can complete the style you're going for. Or maybe something happened to your head so you decided to wear a hat to cover that one spot. I also feel that hats can bring more satisfaction because others may like it. I don’t see what’s wrong with wearing a hat you can see their face. When you see them wearing, there is no threat to the hats or anything.…
