Food Sites - December 09

(a) Meals for you
Did you go to a restaurant, order a meal and wonder, man, how much caleries in it and what are the ingredient?
Did you like the meal and thinking "hmm....  I should have ago myself ......"

Did someone you love tell you their favourite food and you want to cook for them, but have no idea what it looks like?

If you did, I hope you enjoy http://www.mealsforyou.com/.  What you need to do is simply search recipe by name, and you will find the picture, the recipe, the ingredient etc etc etc.........

(b) Hookery Cookery

Another food site I enjoy is http://www.hookerycookery.com/.  It is simple and "tidy".  Yes, tidy.  Imagine you are interested in just suggestion for Christmas and Easter.  Instead of being flooded with all sorts of recipes, just click on "Christmas", you will find some meals special for Christmas.

Online survey

Is it true that you can make a lot of money from doing online survey? No idea.

I have found the following link.
http://www.auspaidsurveys.com/survey-panel-review-scoreboard.html
At a glance, you can see which are the well rated survey panel. If you are interested in making money from online survey, but not sure where to start, you might want to start by researching some of these companies on the above link.

I will not suggest you pay for any registration if you are not sure what you will get yourself into.

I have recently registered with:
1. http://www.rewardscentral.com.au/
 There are points earning daily with their "Web click" and "Quick Survey". There is also points earning with "Guessing Game" if you get the right numbers.   There are also offers for their members.

It will probably take times to accumulate points. However, I see it as a way to keep up to date with best deals on the market.

2. http://www.freestuff.net.au/
They will be sending you emails for free stuff. If you are interested, you can apply for receiving free samples.

Have fun.

Struggling with job hunting

Do you find yourself:

1. Applying for jobs in the past 3 - 6 months with no result?

2. Changing the format and details of resume and cover letter because you were told you need to customise it for each jobs application? However....... nothing works?

3. Running out of ideas on how to present your resume in order to earn an interview?

4. Demotivated with finding jobs?

You may want to find out more about "Guerrilla Resume", which is an unconventional ways of marketing yourself.

Have a look at these link
http://www.careerjockey.org/how-to-find-a-job-faster/
http://www.jobdig.com/articles/1041/Four_Guerrilla-Style_Resumes.html

Is it bullet-proof? Probably not, but it is a starting point for ideas to think outside the box and explore something that might work for you.

Good luck.

Great Ocean Road - Twelve Apostles


The Twelve Apostles along Great Ocean Road is a 'must visit' tourist attraction in Melbourne.  It is a collection of limestone stacks off the shore of the Port Campbell National Park.

The Twelve Apostles are created by constant erosion of the limestone cliffs of the mainland that began 10–20 million years ago.  Some of these photos were taken from a helicopter.  The experience is unspeakable.

Inpirational Quote - S

Success
I cannot give you the formula for success, but I can give you the formula for failure - which is: try to please everybody.
(Herbert Bayard Swope 1882-1958 American newspaper editor)


Success consists of getting up just one more time than you fall
(Anonymous)

Success is to be measured not so much by the position one has reached in life, as by the obtacles which one has overcome while trying to succeed.
(Booker Taliaferro Washington - American teacher, writer and speaker)


Source: The complete pocket positives (Compiled by Maggie Pinkney and Barbara Whiter)

Success is a lousy teacher.  It seduces smart people into thinking they can't lose.
(Bill Gates 1955-)

No man will succeed unless he is ready to face and overcome difficulties and prepared to assume responsibilities
William Boetcker (1873-1962)

The winner in life think constantly in terms of I can, I will and I am.  Losers, on the other hand, concentrate their waking thoughts on what they should have or would have done, or what they can't do.
Denis Waitley (1933-)
