Writing related ndash; scam

p I am a professional writer, and I get paid to write content for peoplersquo;s blogs, website, advertising campaigns and other projects, and I have recently been the victim of a scam artist that took my content and never paid me for it. This was a complete nightmare at first and I felt so angry and upset that someone would betray my trust like that. I am telling you because I want you to know what to look out for, and how to deal with it if you should ever end up in the same situation./p/p

p class=MsoNormalUnfortunately unlike in other areas of work, there are no companies such as a href=http://eniginscambusters.com/Enigin Scam Busters/a, working to expose scam companies or people, and usually you will not know who the scam artist is until you are the one that has not been paid for your work! I was contracted privately through a forum, to complete a 20 article job lot. I completed my work and sent in my invoice, then days later I received an email from Paypal saying that an Echeque had been paid in to my account, but had problems with it. I contacted the lady, who sorted the problem, and payment was completed. I was then given a much bigger task, which I completed, and received the same Paypal message. I received two more large orders for work, and as she had sorted the problem before, I did the work, expecting the problem to be resolved. It never was./p/p

To cut a long story short. The lady in question (who I later found out went under a number of different names) disappeared. I then had to copy scape all of the articles that I had written, and find out where they had been posted, contact the website owners, and offer two options. The first was that they took the content down so that I would use it, and the second was that they pay me for it. If they did not comply I had to file a DNC against them./p

I Love Writing

p
p style=text-align:justifySoon after finishing university with a degree in IT, I landed up in call centers where I was assisting customers, selling products, making collection calls and finally supporting dell customers with their hardware and software problem. I enjoyed the last one very much, it paid well and obviously a lot of fun adds up when you are paid well. Life was fun, but also stagnant. A creepy feeling always came into my mind that may be I will be working in call centers all my life and this feeling was not helped by the elderly who sat and took calls with me./p/p

p class=MsoNormal style=text-align:justifyI am not saying that working in a call center is bad; it is just that it was not what I wanted to do with my life. Call centers did help me with doing something I really liked to do, which is interacting with people, but a part of me still wanted to get into something that would really allow me to speak out my mind and would also pay me for it. Getting into a singing career or for that matter acting would not have met my immediate needs, but there is something else that I got into that I really loved and it was freelance writing./p/p

p class=MsoNormal style=text-align:justify;tab-stops:338.5ptThe benefits of freelance writing are many, but so are the disadvantages. While it allows you to work anytime and any where you want, it might not be there for you every time you need money. This is when you start looking everywhere, including a href=http://www.printdesigns.comdisplay stands/a for adverts of writer required. However, this is one job where you can start making money fast, even if itrsquo;s not always a lot. The most important part for me about freelance writing is that it allows me to express myself on many topics and I even get paid for it. I only hope that every time I write it would positively help not just the client I write for, but also the readers who spend their time reading my written work. /p/p

Russia + The UK = ?

admin — Tue, 20 Sep 2011 12:46:37 +0000

p
Our dear Prime Minister have finally made a step ahead of his predecessors - he visited Russia as being the first UK PM to do so after the spy scandal between the two countries almost 12 years back. The conclusions from the visit are clear - Britain needs Russian money desperately, it actually needs any money from anywhere. However, cooperation with Russia is crucial since while the West is getting poorer, the East is growing strong and mister Cameron is clever enough to realize that./p

The meeting between the Russian President Dmitri Medvedev and the UK Prime Minister was an official way for both countries to exchange certain diplomatic warmness after the spy scandal of a double agent that totally disrupted the relations between the two countries. However, both leaders showed great respect to each other and even though tough questions remained unanswered during the meeting and the press conference, an improvement has begun. brWhy is Russia so special? Russia is special in so many ways to the UK - mostly because Russian billionaires are becoming an impressive percentage of the rich population in the country and their money is necessary worldwide. Russian social elite are generally quite attracted to the UK - from buying property to developing any sort of business including even a href=http://www.carter4.fr/R4 3DS/a data readers.This is why by ensuring strong political cooperation and international tolerance, the UK can benefit quite a lot from the Russian high class businessmen. brAnother strategic advantage in this political move is that the UK is a main player in NATO and the EU. And Russia knows that - being in good relations with the big boys makes you part of a powerful pact that you might benefit from. And even though Russian PM Putin might disagree on this, democratically oriented Medvedev knows how to play his political parts. brLe us hope that the good relations between the two countries would strengthen and that further cooperation would be achieved. This is the only way for Europe to avoid any future financial cataclysms and improve itself in many social and economic directions during the upcoming decades./p

Are Police Cuts Really Necessary

admin — Sat, 13 Aug 2011 12:03:06 +0000

Despite the fact that both leading political formations in the UK - the Tories and the Labours, seem to be quite inadequate in their proposals for coping with the British economic problems, the latter expressed a genuine and quite reasonable concern about whether the enactment of the police cuts by the Tory government should continue. The concern is mainly related with the unavailability of police force in the UK which became quite clear after the riots in London, Manchester and Birmingham. The public was afforded no protection against the rioters and this is the reason why many people were devastated having their businesses crashed and their homes burnt by violent criminals marching freely around London.

If completely enacted, the police cuts would reduce the number of officers in the UK. They would also decrease the availability of policing equipment, would reduce the operating budget of the police boroughs and would probably affect the preservation of peace initiatives inside the country. The deficiency of funds would also equalize the number of officers in specific areas - this is completely wrong as areas such as the violent Tottenham need more policing than the peaceful Uxbridge areas. Police might even need some advanced Octopus HR software to coordinate its officers simply because the need for policing would increase.

Despite these concerns, Mr Cameron and his deputy prime minister Clegg are refusing to accept removal of the police cuts scheme. rather than redirecting the cuts in a more favorable area that needs less current attention, the leaders of the UK would go ahead with the propsed money saving measures. Hopefully, this would expose the country to further violence and police inability to cope with it.

UK Growth slows to 0.2%

admin — Tue, 26 Jul 2011 14:33:05 +0000

The UK economy suffered too much of problems int he last year. From a steadily growing economic power, UK lost its economy around the second and third quarter of 2010. However, the first quarter of 2011 revealed some signs of healing when a percent of growth was marked. This put the beginning of huge talks about how the government was underestimated and how the economy is finally building up itself to a good level of stability. Nonetheless, we again witness economic problems - the economy shrunk again with only 0,2% of growth in the second quarter of 2011.

Economists say this is caused by the jumping oil prices, the Japanese problems where the UK had significant loss of interests in trade with Japan and so on. In domestic factors, elements such as unemployment in some particular regions and severe economic pressure on stock trading have contributed to the slowing down of the recession. Some suggestions even lead to the political problems of the country where the exhaustion of huge military resource for operations in Libya has costed the UK an opportunity to input budget savings into the restoration of the economy.

But even when the economy slows down, the politicians of the day are positive. The Tories once again said that the economy is actually working and all is fine until this economy is creating jobs for its people. Probably Mr Cameron needs to go through digital display printing and advertise his persona by saying that he actually achieved a progress in economic terms rather than firing 3000 people from the public sector in Manchester.

The fact is that the economy is again decreasing in its temps of development and the UK is in need of more savings to be inputted into the corporate and business environment. Otherwise, the country is again risking an economic stability problem.

Superbugs Contaminating US Meat And Poultry

admin — Wed, 29 Jun 2011 16:19:31 +0000

Burgers? Check. Mince? Check. Chicken? Check. Staphylococcus? WHAT? Your family barbeque has an unexpected and most unwelcome visitor in the form of a superbug.

Meat and poultry is contaminated by dangerous bacteria, including superbugs that are antibiotic resistant. Recent nationwide studies by the Translational Genomics Research Institute (TGen), situated in Flagstaff, Arizona, have determined that a staggering 47% of the tested samples were contaminated, of which 52% contained superbugs. Said samples were from different sources, brands and stores primarily located in Los Angeles, Washington DC, Chicago, Fort Lauderdale and Flagstaff areas, which is extremely worrying.

Further testing showed that the root cause may be found in the animals'food, which raises questions about how antibiotics are widely used in animal-food production. This has been the source of vigorous debate within the industry and among political divides. There have also been a number of news stories relating to this issue. The jury is still out. Now since I will be flying on some cheap flights over the next few months, I can only hope they don’t serve any of those meats.

The infected animals are reared in heavily populated arms where they’re dosed with small quantities of antibiotics. This unfortunately creates the perfect breeding ground for the drug resistant bacteria which will then pass from animal to human.

The World Health Organization recognizes the connection between the use of antibiotics in livestock and the ever resistant superbugs. If that’s the case, why have these industrial farms been permitted to continue this lethal practice when it has been banned in Europe except when directly treating illness?

Scape-goats & Bad Behaviour…

admin — Wed, 29 Jun 2011 16:17:56 +0000

The new series of the ever watchable and awe-inspiringly funny The Apprentice kicked off last night with an explosive episode containing…well, lots of mistakes and people looking a bit thick. Not just any people, but some of England’s finest business acumen. This is something we’ve all come to expect of course, but this first episode was especially brutal, and made the project manager Edward look like a less than desirable employee. And that’s saying nothing for when he appeared on …You’re Fired on BBC 2 afterwards…

So it begs the question: why do law professionals and accountants often come off looking the worse in the media? I’m not just talking the Alan Sugar based show, either. Watch a gangster film and it’s usually the politician or the accountant type that gets gunned down first or last. But there again, the murky world of law and order has always been entangled with criminality, and then the credit-crunch came along and anyone who worked with numbers or was supposed to be administering “justice” suddenly got a right earful, and justifiably so, under the terrible circumstances…

So, what’s your opinion: is this harsh image deserving? Or should we calm down and find a new less damaged scape-goat in the way of the politicians right at the top of the food-chain?

Well, one thing’s for sure, there’ll be another scandal coming along soon enough, whether it’s DNA Testing , food, politics or health and safety. We’ll just have to wait to find out what it’s going to be…

Lagarde Backed by the UK

admin — Wed, 08 Jun 2011 14:19:10 +0000

After the scandal that brought him the most of troubles and attention in the world, the head of the International Monetary Fund has resigned. However, this is no relief for the body as it is now governed by no-one but the 24 chairmen. Currently, a new director needs to be appointed as quickly as possible if the organization is to proceed to functioning normally.

One of the most probable people suitable for the position is the French minister of finance, Lagarde who has much of authority to deal with the matters of the International Monetary Fund. Her application is backed by many of the countries who have their say in the governance of the fund and whose future largely depends on the performance of the organization. The UK has given its consent after the UK Chancellor George Osborne has given his consent and has formally backed the application of the French minister.This is a clear sign that thus the Parliament has given consent for the Chancellor to make such a decision and to give formal support.

It has been argued that the UK would propose a British financial expert for the position. However, this was not the case and the financial commentators in the country have not even made a comment on the scenario. Nevertheless, it would have been an extremely suitable position for a UK expert having in regard the fact that the UK needs financial attention from other institutions.

The red diesel Manchester producers and many other people seeking financial support and the back up from a third institution on a global have not waited enough to see a Brit on this highly important position that might focus the Monetary Fund in a more UK prospective.

Law Struggle

admin — Sun, 27 Mar 2011 16:33:15 +0000

Law struggle is referred to as the process of opposition of political decision-makers and unelected members of the judiciary. Recently, the process of questioning the impartiality of both law Lords and politicians in the Parliament has been given immense importance in the UK after several decisions were summed up and presented to the public in a documentary.

The documentary film by BBC focuses on the life of the Law Lords - the most senior judges in the realm. They discuss the importance of impartiallity and the fundamental distinguishable feature between elected bodies and legal scholars. However, members of the public have been long asked the question of whether measures adopted by the Parliament, such as the protection of the motherland terrorism policies, need to be addressed with such a doze of subjectivity and negativism by the judiciary. The Law Lords struck down legislation allowing wider discretion for Law Lords when deciding on the suspects of terrorism.

The Law Lords, however, are universal experts in the country. they have decided upon various aspects such as the striking down of the best home equity loans and the departure from outdated legal principles in the banking system. They need to keep the state in accordance with the rule of law. As such, their impartiality is vital for the process of justice delivery. The struggle between them and the politicians in the Parliament might worsen in future as several individuals are about to question to actions of the British government under the Blair mandate in terms of attitude towards terrorism and the measures that authorities adopted in the dealings with potential suspects from British or other international origin.

A Catholic Economic System

admin — Wed, 16 Mar 2011 13:03:20 +0000

In his lecture on the 11 March in Chicago, economist Harold Harett has made a shocking speech in front of politics students and representatives from different political structures about the distribution of political power in a state. He revealed his ’perfect state'economic system and described its environment as a distributive state (also known as a Catholic economic system state).
Politics often resembles artist John Waterhouse performances. However, it has a deeper influence that we suggest just because it determines the economic environment. Harett revealed that through the distributive political management of the economy, states would achieve what both communism and capitalism could not - a stable and equal society.
He argues that promoting catholic values is just a beginning - his main point is that in distributive economic system communism and capitalism would persist. In terms of capitalism, private ownership would be encouraged as well as competition and business activity. His main idea s that capitalism is good when controlled and this is the reason why he says that equal society can be achieved only through partial capitalism achievements.
In terms of communism, Harett reveals that the distributism would promote private ownership but would aim to keep on low levels. Thus there would be many small business but not major business players. Thus everyone would be equally offered small business production which would encourage the development of individuals but also keep them in one social layer.
The hybrid economic system would also promote the values of Christianity in the sense of catholicism and thus harmony and social understanding can be achieved in the ’perfect state'as described by Harett.
