Let´s mustaches! The Movember community has raised £346 million to date and funded over 800 programmes in 21 countries. This work is saving and improving the lives of men affected by prostate cancer, testicular cancer and mental health problems. BY Movember
Funds are raised through the Foundation’s annual awareness campaign, Movember, which sees the sprouting of millions of moustaches around the world, during the month previously known as November. At the start of Movember, guys take action by signing up with a clean-shaven face and for the 30 days of November commit to growing a moustache. These selfless and generous men are known as Mo Bros, and groom, trim and wax their way into the annals of fine moustachery. Mo Bros are supported by the women in their lives, affectionately known as Mo Sistas together, our Mo Community raise money and awareness to change the face of men’s health. With the sprouting of a new moustache, Mo Bros effectively become walking, talking billboards for the month; and like a run or walk for charity, they use their hairy ribbon to spark conversations around the often ignored issue of men’s health and seek funds to support the work of the Movember Foundation. 6 / CUTE DESIGN / Nº87 - 2014

At the end of the month, the Movember community celebrates their Mo growing efforts, either by joining us at one of the official Movember Gala Partés, held around the world, or by hosting their own end of month event with colleagues, friends or community groups.
Movember – A Global Movement Since relatively humble beginnings back in 2003 in Australia, the Movember movement has grown to be a truly global one; inspiring support from over 4 million Mo Bros, Mo Sistas around the world. The Movember Foundation currently runs official campaigns in 21 countries, however, we’re aware of pockets of support in virtually every corner of the world, from Moscow to Rio de Janeiro and everywhere in between. Movember’s success can largely be attributed to the strength of the global community; regardless of the city in which they live, they feel part of something bigger, united by a commitment to help change
the face of men’s health. It’s about global mateship. The global expansion of the Movember campaign is not something that has been driven from within – it has been invited and encouraged. Our policy is only to enter a new market if there is an existing strong ground swell of support. Word of mouth, the movement of expats and the incredible power of the internet have all contributed to the campaign stretching out across the globe. The geographic expansion supports and delivers on our primary objective of spreading key health messages to men everywhere. The idea for Movember actually started with a conversation between mates, so there’s a nice synergy to the fact that today it’s conversation that is central to achieving our goals. That one conversation back in 2003 has today grown into billions, taking place around the world.

News Men’s Health Programmes The Movember Foundation’s key programme in men’s health is our Awareness & Education piece. So, what is it achieving exactly? In short, it’s educating and empowering men when it comes to their health. Movember started with a conversation between mates and it’s a conversation that remains integral to how the Movember Foundation is changing the face of men’s health. Today, it is just many more conversations. When you count the online and in person chat that takes place each Movember, it’s literally billions of conversations. These conversations transcend a casual discussion about moustache growth into serious conversations about men’s health. But is all this talk actually making a difference? This is a question that the Movember Foundation is constantly asking itself and answers through an annual, independent survey of past participants. Encouragingly, the results show the answer is without doubt; yes, we are making a difference. Each member of the Mo community is making a difference through the awareness they spread during their personal Movember journey. It is the Mo Bros themselves that become men’s health advocates and are literally walking/talking billboards for 30 days. The Movember campaign provides the platform, by way of the website, and tools for them to participate, but it is the individuals that bring the campaign to life by making it their own and communicating our men’s health messages in a way that is meaningful to them, their family and peers. This authentic communication from someone known and trusted has high impact. This is where the effectiveness of our Awareness & Education programme lies. The research confirms that the Movember campaign is having a positive impact on getting men engaged and thinking 8 / CUTE DESIGN / Nº87 - 2014

about their health and taking preventative action. Compared to the general population, Movember participants spend more time thinking about improving their health, visiting a doctor or discussing their health with others.
· 62% had seen or were intending to see a medical professional to get their key personal numbers (blood pressure, cholesterol, waistline, weight) · 50% told someone they should take action to improve their health
The research shows that Movember is speaking to an engaged and highly influential group and as a result has a significant impact on health related behaviours of its participants.
· 75% said they were more likely to tell someone they knew to seek professional health if they thought it needed
Key global research findings:
Evidence clearly highlights that there’s a long way to go until men achieve the optimum level of health. Progress is being made but the issue of tackling the inequality between men and women’s health is a complex one and will take time. However, a unanimously agreed upon point is that better educating men on the risks they face
· 99% of participants talked to someone about their health · 75% became more aware of the health issues they face
· 1.7 billion conversations were had
News and empowering them with the information and know-how to proactively look after their health, is a vital piece of the puzzle. We seek to do our part through our annual Awareness & Education campaign. We’re aiming to increase the understanding of the health risks that men face and encourage them to act on that knowledge.

Isometric perspective Isometric projection is a method for visually representing three-dimensional objects in two dimensions in technical and engineering drawings. BY Wikipedia
The term “isometric” comes from the Greek for “equal measure”, reflecting that the scale along each axis of the projection is the same (unlike some other forms of graphical projection). An isometric view of an object can be obtained by choosing the viewing direction in a way that the angles between the projection of the x, y, and z axes are all the same, or 120°. For example when taking a cube, this is done by first looking straight towards one face. Next the cube is rotated ±45° about the vertical axis, followed by a rotation of approximately ±35.264° (precisely arcsin(tan 30°) or arctan(sin 45°) ) about the horizontal axis. Note that with the cube (see image) the perimeter of the 2D drawing is a perfect regular hexagon: all the black lines are of equal length and all the cube’s faces are the same area. There is isometric paper that can be placed under your normal piece of drawing paper as an aid. In a similar way an isometric view can be obtained for example in a 3D scene editor. Starting with the camera aligned parallel to the floor and aligned to the coor-
dinate axes, it is first rotated downwards around the horizontal axis by about 35.264° as above, and then rotated ±45° around the vertical axis. Another way in which isometric projection can be visualized is by considering a view within a cubical room starting in an upper corner and looking towards the opposite, lower corner. The x-axis extends diagonally down and right, the y-axis extends diagonally down and left, and the z-axis is straight up. Depth is also shown by height on the image. Lines drawn along the axes are at 120° to one another. The term “isometric” is often mistakenly used to refer to axonometric projections in general.(There are three types of axonometric projections: isometric, dimetric and trimetric.)
