These activities can get you FIRED from your work<p align="justify"><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">Most of the states in the U.S. (and in many countries also) exercise <strong><u>at-will employment rules</u></strong>. That is, a company can fire an employee for any reason, unless the issue at hand is protected by law, like gender, race, religion, national origin, or disability.</span></p><p align="justify"><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"><strong><u>What it means to us?</u></strong> This means that it could be <strong><em>legal</em></strong> for your employer to <strong><em>fire you</em></strong> over your political leanings. And that’s not the only area. In a piece for <a onmouseover="window.status='http://www.yahoo.com';return true;" onmouseout="window.status=' ';return true;" href="http://www.anrdoezrs.net/click-2111478-10464641" target="_blank"><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">Yahoo! HotJobs</span></strong></a>, Larry Buhl writes about five key areas where a company may scrutinize. According to Buhl, they are:<img height="1" src="http://www.tqlkg.com/image-2111478-10464641" width="1" border="0" /></span></p><ol><li><div align="justify"><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"><u><strong><span style="color:#009900;">Smoking, drinking, and overeating</span></strong></u>: Due to the cost of health insurance, more and more employers view “unhealthy” habits as a threat to their bottom line. </span></div></li><li><div align="justify"><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"><u><span style="color:#009900;"><strong>Risky behavior</strong></span></u>: Likewise, a company might see your bungee jumping hobby as a liability. </span></div></li><li><div align="justify"><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"><strong><u><span style="color:#009900;">Speech</span></u></strong>: Will your employer consider your blogging to be destructive griping? </span></div></li><li><div align="justify"><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"><strong><u><span style="color:#009900;">Romantic relationships</span></u></strong>: Dating someone at a competitor’s company has landed employees in hot water. And some employers might take issue with unmarried coupling or even same-sex relationships (federal law doesn’t protect employees from discrimination based on real or perceived sexual orientation). </span></div></li><li><div align="justify"><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"><strong><u><span style="color:#009900;">Political activity</span></u></strong>: Volunteering for Obama could be trouble if you have a pro-McCain boss, and vice versa. </span></div></li></ol><p align="justify"><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">Union members and employees in the public (government) sector are generally more protected, but private sector employees can be fired at any time. Buhl provides tips from legal experts for protecting your job from unexpected dangers:</span></p><ul><li><div align="justify"><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"><strong><span style="color:#6666cc;">Understand the concept of at-will employment</span></strong>. Don’t assume that termination must be illegal just because you think it was unfair. </span></div></li><li><div align="justify"><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"><strong><span style="color:#6666cc;">Be fully aware of your company’s policies and terms of employment</span></strong>. Read the employee handbook, and ask HR if you have any questions. </span></div></li><li><div align="justify"><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"><strong><span style="color:#6666cc;">Be familiar with the company’s internal dispute mechanisms</span></strong> (if any) for filing grievances. </span></div></li><li><div align="justify"><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"><strong><span style="color:#6666cc;">Think before you act</span></strong>. Could your employer see your actions off the job as potentially destructive to the company? </span></div></li><li><div align="justify"><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"><strong><span style="color:#6666cc;">Don’t disclose</span></strong>. You don’t have to disclose lifestyle choices or off-the-clock activities unless there is a clear link to your ability to perform the job.</span></div></li></ul>Geminihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10892597924715870749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38055677.post-47565793143877822212008-07-10T10:57:00.000+05:302008-07-10T10:57:02.203+05:30Google Page Ranking - The secret is out!!And I feel proud to bring the original version, directly from Amit Singhal, Google Fellow in charge of the ranking team at Google!!<br /><br />Google ranking is a collection of algorithms used to find the most relevant documents for a user query. We do this for hundreds of millions of queries a day, from a collection of billions and billions of pages. These algorithms are run for every query entered into most of Google's search services. While our web search is the most used Google search service and the most widely known, the same ranking algorithms are also used - with some modifications - for other Google search services, including Images, News, YouTube, Maps, Product Search, Book Search, and more.<br /><br />Do not forget to read the detailed postmortem of Google Page Rank here on the <a href="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2008/07/introduction-to-google-ranking.html#links">Official Google Blog: Introduction to Google Ranking</a>.Geminihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10892597924715870749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38055677.post-36727983244428336502008-07-09T19:51:00.004+05:302008-07-09T20:10:55.784+05:30TEACH INDIA – Let’s learn to teach<blockquote><p align="justify"><strong><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">We've just identified the perfect solution to illiteracy – <u>YOU</u>.</p></span></strong></blockquote><p align="justify"><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">After phenomenal success of the “Lead India” drive, The Times of India (TOI) has launched a all-new initiative – <strong>TEACH INDIA: Let’s learn to teach</strong>.<img style="float:right; margin:0 0 4px 4px;cursor:pointer;" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_cqGfGfi8SHY/SHTNhlceVFI/AAAAAAAABw0/ah84FuH0ToE/s400/logo_ti.gif" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5221023844900164690" /> Under this initiative, TOI is encouraging young citizens of India to donate a few hours a week only for 3 months towards teaching underprivileged, undereducated children from our neighborhood. It is not a nation-wide initiative, but it is in fact a nation-building initiative! It is solely based on one single motive – your willingness to teach the underprivileged, to remove the illiteracy from our superb nation and in the process help the children to live a better life.<br /><br />It involves various programmes including basic education, support classes and even story-telling. The type of programme a volunteer is assigned to, will be decided after initial assessment by the NGO, keeping your location and time preference in mind.<img style="float:right; margin:0 0 4px 4px;cursor:pointer;" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_cqGfGfi8SHY/SHTNhxGIMlI/AAAAAAAABw8/vT7hd7QQ7xI/s400/UNV_logo.gif" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5221023848027664978" /> One has to devote a few hours every week for initial 3 months, later on s/he can continue depends on the experience / willingness. This drive is supported by almost 60 of India’s most committed NGO’s, corporates, schools, and is recognized by the UN Volunteers.</p></span><blockquote><p align="justify"><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">Come on Indians, the nation is calling you… seeking your selfless help to eradicate illiteracy… to come forward and help change the future of a child forever. Your few hours a week can change the future of our youth! We owe a lot to this beautiful nation; it’s the pay back time now! I have already applied and am hoping that I would get this wonderful chance to serve my country. </span></p></blockquote><div align="justify"><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"></span></div><p align="justify"><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"></span> </p><p align="justify"><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">If you also share my opinion, hop in immediately: visit </span><a href="http://teach.timesofindia.com/"><strong><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">http://teach.timesofindia.com</span></strong></a><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"> now for more details and complete the application formalities.

If the Pope won, the Sikhs would leave. </span><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">The Sikhs realized that they had no choice. So they picked a middle-aged man named Harbinder Singh to represent them. Harbinder asked for one additional condition to the debate.</span><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">To make it more interesting, neither side would be allowed to talk. The Pope agreed. </span><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">The day of the great debate came. Harbinder Singh and the Pope sat opposite each other for a full minute. </span><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">Then the Pope raised his hand and showed three fingers. </span><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">Harbinder looked back at him and raised one finger. </span><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">The Pope waved his fingers in a circle around his head. Harbinder pointed to the ground where he sat. </span><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">The Pope pulled out a wafer and a glass of wine. </span><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">Harbinder pulled out an apple. </span><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">The Pope stood up and said, "I give up. This man is too good. The Sikhs can stay."<br /></span><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">An hour later, the cardinals were gathered around the Pope asking him what had happened. </span><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">The Pope said, "First I held up three fingers to represent the holy trinity. </span><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">He responded by holding up one finger to remind me that there was still One God common to both our religions. </span><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">Then, I waved my finger around me to show him that God was all around us. </span><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">He responded by pointing to the ground and showing that God was also right here with us. </span><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">Then, I pulled out the wine and wafer to show that God absolves us from our sins. </span><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">He pulled out an apple to remind me of original sin. </span><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">He had an answer for everything.

Palmair European flies no more than twice a day, has a worker who does the seating plans on her kitchen table and carries only 70,000 passengers a year. But it beat heavyweights including Walsh's BA and Branson's Virgin Atlantic along with 64 others in the Which? poll for best experience and value for money. It was also voted best for short-haul. </span><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">Delighted boss David Skillicorn said: “We're just little Palmair with a little Boeing 737. Those who want more leg room get it and families who want to sit together can. Other airlines charge for a service like this but not us. “We've even taken out seats to give the 130 passengers more leg room.” Founded 51 years ago and employing 50 staff, Palmair flies to 14 European destinations including Spain, Tenerife, Portugal, Corfu and Croatia. Worker Teresia Rossello greets every passenger and then waves them off at Bournemouth Airport in Dorset. There are no night flights as they are considered antisocial. Which? said the awards singled out “special” firms. Air New Zealand was joint third with Palmair, behind Jet Airways and winner Singapore Airlines. </span><br /><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"></span><br /><strong><u><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">Plamair facts</span></u></strong><br /><ul><li><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">50 staff work there: 25 crew and 25 support staff </span></li><li><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">70,000 fly a year but only in the day and not before 8.20 am. </span></li><li><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;">1957 - Peter Bath set up the airline and waved off every flight until 2006.</span></li></ul>Geminihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10892597924715870749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38055677.post-38251991139049312252008-06-12T15:03:00.001+05:302008-06-15T15:07:56.920+05:30How to pronounce Oklahoma correctly?<p title="http://groups.yahoo.com/group/fun_and_fun_only" style="text-align: center;" align="center"><span style="font-size:130%;"><b><span title="http://groups.yahoo.com/group/fun_and_fun_only" style=";font-family:Arial;color:black;" ><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:Arial;color:black;" >I never knew this. <o:p></o:p></span></span></b></span></p> <p title="http://groups.yahoo.com/group/fun_and_fun_only" style="text-align: center;" align="center"><span title="http://groups.yahoo.com/group/fun_and_fun_only" style=";font-family:Arial;font-size:130%;color:black;" ><span style=";font-family:Arial;color:black;" ><br /><br /><o:p></o:p></span></span></p> <p title="http://groups.yahoo.com/group/fun_and_fun_only" style="text-align: center;" align="center"><span style="font-size:130%;"><b><span title="http://groups.yahoo.com/group/fun_and_fun_only" style=";font-family:Arial;color:black;" ><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:Arial;color:black;" >I guess I had been pronouncing it correctly, but I never knew the story behind it..<o:p></o:p></span></span></b></span></p> <p title="http://groups.yahoo.com/group/fun_and_fun_only" style="text-align: center;" align="center"><span title="http://groups.yahoo.com/group/fun_and_fun_only" style=";font-family:Arial;font-size:130%;color:blue;" ><span style=";font-family:Arial;color:blue;" ><br /><br />There is a right way and a wrong way to pronounce<o:p></o:p></span></span></p> <p title="http://groups.yahoo.com/group/fun_and_fun_only" style="text-align: center;" align="center"><span title="http://groups.yahoo.com/group/fun_and_fun_only" style=";font-family:Arial;font-size:130%;color:red;" ><span style=";font-family:Arial;color:red;" ><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:180%;" ><st1:state st="on"><st1:place st="on">Oklahoma</st1:place></st1:state></span><o:p></o:p></span></span></p> <p title="http://groups.yahoo.com/group/fun_and_fun_only" style="text-align: center;" align="center"><span title="http://groups.yahoo.com/group/fun_and_fun_only" style=";font-family:Arial;font-size:130%;color:blue;" ><span style=";font-family:Arial;color:blue;" > <o:p></o:p></span></span></p> <p title="http://groups.yahoo.com/group/fun_and_fun_only" style="text-align: center;" align="center"><span title="http://groups.yahoo.com/group/fun_and_fun_only" style=";font-family:Arial;font-size:130%;color:blue;" ><span style=";font-family:Arial;color:blue;" ><br /><br /><br />The proper way is:<o:p></o:p></span></span></p> <p title="http://groups.yahoo.com/group/fun_and_fun_only" style="text-align: center;" align="center"><span title="http://groups.yahoo.com/group/fun_and_fun_only" style=";font-family:Arial;font-size:130%;color:red;" ><span style=";font-family:Arial;color:red;" ><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:180%;" ><st1:state st="on"><st1:place st="on">Okla</st1:place></st1:state> . . .

Naturally you'd have two tradtional options: take a loan, or arrange from your own savings. Getting loans from traditional financial institutions may be a nightmare. However, there is one big relief - Advance Restaurant Finance (ARF), a licensed finance lender and limited liability company. It provides short term, working capital for merchants. To put it in simple words, it fills the void between traditional bank financing and less attractive avenues of financing, such as taking on partners. ARF offers its customers a secure lending while still allowing them to retain control of their businesses and goals.

Then buy a car...<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">A Missouri car dealer said on Thursday sales have soared at his auto and truck business since launching a promotion this week that promises buyers a free handgun or a $250 gas card with every purchase.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">Max Motors, a small Butler, Missouri dealership that has as its logo a grimacing cowboy wielding a pistol, has sold more than 30 cars and trucks in the last three days, far more than its normal volume. And owner Mark Muller credits his decision to start offering buyers their choice of a $250 gas card or a $250 credit at a gun shop.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">"This thing has taken off.

Not sure what to do, where to go, whom to approach, whom to consult, etc. etc. I have faced these situations quite often and most of the times I have to let it go and at the end, I become the loser. L Be it in my love life, or in my career, or in my life as a whole. I have found myself at the crossroads of life, not sure which way to take. I always wished I had someone to consult, someone who would accurately guide me...<br /><br /><a href="http://www.kqzyfj.com/click-2111478-3750871" target="_blank"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5200925097339598210" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_cqGfGfi8SHY/SC1l0gJXNYI/AAAAAAAABlo/FmyWtfURnVM/s400/Keen.jpg" border="0" /></a><br />Now I have found one in <a href="http://www.kqzyfj.com/click-2111478-3750871" target="_blank"><b>KEEN</b></a>.
