Summer Means Less

Summer means less clothes for most people, but surprisingly nearly two fifths (38%) of Brits whose skin is irritated by fabric say it is this time of year, more than any other, that clothing fabric causes the most irritation to their skin, according to a poll commissioned by COTTON USA.

During each of the seasons of Autumn and Spring, when we are wrapped up against the elements, only a mere 1% of affected adults are most concerned about their clothes causing skin irritation. The same goes for children, with nearly a third of parents of kids with irritable skin (29%) saying that summertime is when their child’s skin is most affected by the clothes they wear.

The main culprit appears to be nylon, with only 2% of people believing it is the least irritating material, followed closely by polyester (3%) and wool (5%).

Cotton comes top as the best answer to summer skin blues, with almost two thirds of adults (65%) citing cotton fabric as the least irritating material against their skin.

Dr Sarah Wakelin, consultant Dermatologist at a Central London Teaching Hospital, comments: “Skin irritations often worsen during summer due to the heat and humidity. Most people with sensitive skin will feel better in clothes made of pure cotton as it allows the skin to breathe easily.”

Steph Thiers-Ratcliffe, International Marketing Manager, COTTON USA concludes: “Cotton is extraordinarily important in our daily lives and this latest research shows how beneficial it is for people in terms of comfort next to their skin. Cotton clothing ranges from denim jeans and shirts through to underwear, T-shirts, sweatshirts, shorts, dresses and children's wear, so is suitable for every occasion, whatever the time of year.”
About the research

The research was carried out by YouGov Plc. Total sample size was 2107 adults. Fieldwork was undertaken between 27th - 30th March 2009. The survey was carried out online. The figures have been weighted and are representative of all GB adults (aged 18+).

Dell Server

High Performance for Today.and Tomorrow

Dell goes the distance to increase price/performance and performance-per-watt3 in its newest generation of servers. The latest 64-bit dual-core Intel® Xeon® processors deliver performance gains of up to 69%4 over the previous generation.

1066MHz FSB facilitates better speed. 64-bit memory addressability provides scalability for large memory footprint applications.

A TCP/IP Offload Engine (TOE) helps deliver greater network throughput and efficiency by offloading the TCP/IP processing to a dedicated processor, freeing up the main system processor in web-based applications or when using iSCSI.

XPS 600
32GB FBD RAM
Memory

The new PowerEdge 9th Generation servers offer up to 32GB of fully-buffered DIMM memory, twice the memory capacity of the previous generation. This allows for simultaneous reads/writes of memory and can help improve performance in virtualized workloads.

XPS 600
600GB Harddrive
Storage

Serial-Attached SCSI (SAS) hard drives deliver the next generation of SCSI performance and reliability for critical business applications, while SATA options provide greater value for systems that rely on external storage and fiber-channel storage.

XPS 600
PCI EXPRESS
Peripherals

PCI Express I/O expansion facilitates greater I/O throughput and support for high-bandwidth I/O peripherals such as Infiniband, 4Gb fiber channel and future 10Gb Ethernet.

XPS 600
Availability Without Compromise

Dell addresses the need for high availability in the new PowerEdge 9th Generation by providing hot-plug redundant power supplies and hard drives, plus multiple SAS RAID options - without sacrificing expandability, and including support for High Availability Clustering and deployment in SANs. Redundant NICs and redundant cooling fans help keep the servers running smoothly.

XPS 600
Setting the Standard for Manageability

SAS hard drive carriers and memory options are common across the entire line of PowerEdge 9th Generation servers. The PowerEdge 1950, 2900 and 2950 feature standardized drivers and BIOS.

All servers include an Integrated Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) 2.0 management controller (with SMASH Command Line Protocol), plus an optional DRAC 5 remote management card with continuous video and Active Directory integration for robust remote server management.

Buy Her Lingere

ure flattery

Not every woman feels comfortable with baring her bottom in a sexy thong.

Put some thought into what body parts she feels most comfortable with and choose lingerie to complement.

A few ideas:

* Show off nice legs in something short like a baby doll or short chemise.
* Play up good cleavage with a halter or bustier style.
* Display toned arms with a camisole.

Have fun

Get her in touch with her inner child by choosing fun prints like cherries or clouds. Or appeal to her wilder side: animal prints, lace or bold colors like red are perfect.

Colors

Black, red and white (or off-white) look good on almost everyone. Blondes look great in pastels, and brunettes can carry off stronger colors like purple and emerald green. Redheads do best with greens, blues and earthy tones.

Soft touch

If you like touching the garment, she'll like wearing it. Velvet, silk and satin have lots of tactile appeal. If you're buying online, stick with fabrics that you already know what they feel like.

Get comfy

Casual, updated intimates come in styles like tank tops, bikinis and p.j.s. Look for cotton, flannel or other naturally cozy fabrics.

Sizes

The best way to find her correct size is to ask.

Alternatives: you can snoop around the lingerie drawer to find the sizes of stuff she already owns. Or you can guess (tricky territory -- Lingerie.com even promotes the amusing "fruit comparison" method for finding cup size.)

Presentation

Don't forget to wrap the lingerie (or have it professionally wrapped) with beautiful paper and a lots of lush tissue paper. You can get creative and make bags or baskets with related items, like a book of poetry, a bottle of champagne or great-smelling body products and candle.

Key styles

* Chemise - A straight gown that skims the body.
* Negligee - A loose, usually sheer, gown.Peignoir set - Negligee that includes a matching sheer robe.
* Babydoll - A short gown that fits around the bust, flares toward hemline.
* Pajamas - Pants and top, originally styled after men's p.j.s.
* Bustier - A usually strapless elongated bra that provides extra lift to the breasts.
* Camisole - A sleeveless top that can be paired with matching undies or worn under a jacket for work.
* Teddy - A one-piece style, similar to a bodysuit.
* Tap pants - Soft, very short version of boxing shorts.
* Thong - Provides coverage in the front of the panty with a thin strap in the back.

Labels to know

* Nick and Nora - Fun, retro print p.j.s
* La Perla - The creme de la creme of high-end lingerie
* Agent Provocateur - Sexy, playful and very hip
* Victoria's Secret - Well-priced, with everything from comfy p.j.s to sexy bra sets
