When you are interviewed and offered the job, your new employer will tell you what they pay. It will most likely be pretty much the same over a large area. Just because you are a nice person, you will not sway an employer. They have a budget they must follow, too. An entry position never pays as well as you would like. Take the job anyway. That’s how everyone starts.

lyrics below

[Marvin]
You’re alone all the time
Does it ever puzzle you
Have you asked why
You seem to fall in love and out again
Do you really ever love
Or just pretend, oh, baby
Why fool yourself
Don’t be afraid to help yourself
It’s never too late, too late to

Stop, look, yes, listen to your heart
Hear what it’s sayin’
Stop, look, listen to your heart
Hear what it’s sayin’
Love, oh, love, love

[Diana]
Though you try, you can’t hide
All the things you really feel
This time decide
That you will open up, let it in
There’s no shame in sharin’ love you feel within
So jump right in
Head over heels and fall right in
It’s never too late, too late to

Stop, look, listen to your heart
Hear what it’s sayin’
Stop, look, oh, listen to your heart
Hear what it’s sayin’
Love, love, love

[Both]
Darlin’, darlin’, stop and look
(Stop right now and listen to your heart)
Oh, listen to your heart hear what it’s sayin’
(Can’t you see that it’s not too late)
Stop and look
And listen to your heart hear what it’s sayin’

Stop and listen to your heart right now
(Stop, look)
(Listen to your heart hear what’s it’s sayin’)
Oh, can’t you see that it’s not too late
(Stop, look)
(Listen to your heart hear what it’s sayin’)
Darlin’, stop and look
And listen to your heart hear what it’s sayin’
Stop, baby
(Stop right now and listen to your heart)
And listen to your heart hear what it’s sayin’
(Ooh, ooh, can’t you see that it’s not too late)

Win 7 quick launch disapper every time?

December 18, 2010 - 10:30 am 1 Comment

In my note book, the quick launch option is disappearing every time when I restart the computer. I already told to my PC installer that I need a quick launch option. After installation, my PC installer restarted the computer many times, and it could not disappear. So I was satisfied that and take to my home, a week later use of the computer, now the quick launch option is disappearing every time when I restart the computer. However, sometimes it could not disappear but most of the time its disappear, and I set it again. Please help how to solve this problem.. thanks.

Take it back to your Installer, it’s that simple..

Advertising ideas for my new book The Lost Histories: Magus?

November 26, 2010 - 6:04 pm 2 Comments

I’m trying to think up some great ways to advertise without spending too much. I self published because I found that even if you can achieve getting a publisher, if you are new (like me, this is my debut novel) They really won’t help advertise and spread it around unless you have a reputation.

So I’m a self publisher who is attempting to find new ways to get this book known. Facebook is quite hard nowadays, the ads just don’t work well at all for what you spend, and posting like a madman on other’s pages is going to get people angered, not interested in my book.

I have quite a bit of business card advertisements ready for welcoming hands. I just need an outlet for them. And the makings of a book launch party are being formed.

What I am asking of you, the person reading this, is any and all ideas of how to get this book known and coveted by all. Ideas can be on or offline as long as they are viable and worth the time and effort, I work a five day week after all.

Also note that this is a fantasy book, that is perfect for any fantasy or Harry Potter fan, especially now that the series is in the final stages. This can be a new outlet for them.
It is available on Amazon, and is creeping into bookstore databases.

Here is my Facebook page for the book if you would like to review that as well: http://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Lost-Histories/138079016239393
I have a blog, but that would just mean having to get people to find the blog and it’s the same thing all over, facebook is universally accepted by almost anyone and easy to use but the ad price does not equal the amount of publicizing it gains. (Not much trust me)

Anyone else have any ideas?
Thank you sunflower, I hope you enjoy the book :D

I will read it, but one note,the title name is obscured by that green line(sure it is relevant to your story)..but maybe it should not have obscured the title for googling purposes.I was looking for" the lost historians",etc,etc.,not history.Maybe that is just me..and not important…It was hard to read whole title by the visual only on your cover of book in facebook.

Join the book readings club,like at BAM,or make up your own club…I am sure impressed with your efforts.

Clive Hamilton ‘Requiem for a Species’ book launch at ANU

April 14, 2010 - 5:30 am No Comments

Professor Clive Hamilton public lecture and book launch at The Australian National University on 29 March, 2010. The lecture is introduced by Professor Will Steffen, Executive Director of the ANU Climate Change Institute.

Clive Hamiltons book, Requiem for a Species is about why we have ignored the climate change warnings. It is a book about the frailties of the human species: our strange obsessions, our hubris, and our penchant for avoiding the facts. It is the story of a battle within us between the forces that should have caused us to protect the earth, like our capacity to reason and our connection to nature, and our greed, materialism and alienation from nature, which, in the end, have won out.

And it is about the 21st century consequences of these failures, and what we can do now.

Clive Hamilton is Charles Sturt Professor of Public Ethics at the Centre for Applied Philosophy and Public Ethics. He is based at The Australian National University. For 14 years until early 2008 he was the Executive Director of The Australia Institute, Australias leading progressive think tank, which he founded in 1993. He has held a number of visiting academic positions, including at the University of Cambridge and Yale University and is a Fellow of the Royal Society of the Arts. He is the author of a number of best-selling books, including Growth Fetish, Affluenza (with Richard Denniss), Silencing Dissent (with Sarah Maddison) and The Freedom Paradox. His new book, Requiem for a Species: Why we resist the truth about climate change, has just been published by Allen & Unwin.

This launch is presented by the ANU Climate Change Institute and the Centre for Applied Philosophy and Public Ethics, a joint centre of the ANU, Charles Sturt University and the University of Melbourne.

Introduced by Professor Will Steffen, Executive Director of the ANU Climate Change Institute.
