Money making approaches [with blog(s)]

Saturday, July 17th, 2010

This site provides a nice simple overview, .. (Follow this link to read the complete article)

http://www.idoblogs.com/2010/07/16/how-can-you-make-money-with-blogs/

Sell Advertising:

Selling Other People’s Products:

Direct Sales:

Network Marketing.

This sentence (quoted-below) is the most relevant for me.

Be sure to recommend only those products or services that you know are reputable and that you trust in. Your blog’s readers will not be interested in tacky sales pitches or overstated promises, so avoid these by all means.

The computer says no!

Sunday, July 11th, 2010

SENARIO:

Searching a large database – (NOTE; – You MUST (It certainly helps if you) create an account -AND- Login before attempting to search this database)

Stop searching for something that does NOT exist

Do you -/- I – know WHEN to stop searching -?-

SEARCH – (On the advert number) – on the det.nsw.edu.au/jobs website!

Advert-Number: – NEI/10/062 – NO RESULTs

SEARCH – Position Title – (What is the title?)

POSITION - Information Technology Client Support Officer (Helpdesk) Eligibility List

! –      Enquiry returned no results

SO – It is NOT there – (Stop searching for something that does NOT exist)
The computer says NO! – The search entry -/- enquiry does NOT exist!

JOB-ADVERT: – (Helpdesk) Eligibility List

UPDATED: – 11:05am Monday 23 August 2010 – (Added the “text”, … of the actual ad being refered to today, still viewable on the MyCareer site) – AND – used the _wp-Plugin called “info Box”. This tools has been a bit of a curiosity to me for some time, … as it will NOT allow  the “box-of-info”, … to appear on the ‘front-page’ of the blog, … (Dont ask me why) – THIS is how it behaves, … – I can work with that – I need to be re-viewing and updating some older posts that fall into the “Links-Dont-Work-Anymore” category.

What version of Java is installed?

Saturday, September 19th, 2009

VISIT: http://www.javatester.org/version.html

Multiple copies of Java can be installed on a single computer, and, if you have more than one web browser, each one can use a different version of Java, or none at all, so be sure to test them all. Below are nine ways to determine the version of Java a web browser is using.

Note: The portion of Java that runs programs is referred to as the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) or Java Run-time Environment (JRE).

DOWNLOAD: Recommended Version 6 Update 16 – Java allows you to play online games, chat with people around the world, calculate your mortgage interest, and view images in 3D, just to name a few. It’s also integral to the intranet applications and other e-business solutions that are the foundation of corporate computing.

AND; HERE is another url to TEST what version of Java is Installed; [TEST - Sytstem-X] Verifying Java Version *-THE-URL-* = http://www.java.com/en/download/installed.jsp

Oops! You don’t have the recommended Java installed.
Your Java version is Version 6 Update 11 – [AND; They insist on me having verion 16]

Never mind that it has been HAPPILY working since XMAS, without any problem. GRUMBLE – GRUMBLE – Ok, gues Id better update to the latest version of Java-16

dead peasants insurance

Tuesday, September 15th, 2009

THIS; is quite a popular google search; -  dead peasants insurance

WHAT DOES IT MEAN? – (benefits payable to the corporation)

Corporate-owned life insurance
Corporate-owned life insurance (COLI) is life insurance on employees’ lives that is owned by the employer corporation, with benefits payable to the corporation. COLI was originally purchased on the lives of key employees and executives by a company to hedge against the financial cost of losing key employees to unexpected death, the risk of recruiting and training replacements of necessary or highly-trained personnel, or to fund corporate obligations to redeem stock upon the death of an owner. This use is commonly known as “key man” or “key person” insurance. Once, COLI was used for masses of non-key employees in order to get tax benefits, a practice known as “janitor insurance” or “dead peasant insurance”. Congress set limits on the practice in 2004, and today COLI is limited to the more senior executives of a firm.

The truth is out there
