Jobs for Students

By Alex Wu

While it is not easy too find jobs when you are not yet graduated from college, you can take chance of the available part time job opportunities. Students actually have many options for part time jobs because many organizations and businesses need flexible staffs to make sure the small tasks and operational activities are done on time. Part time workers help to handle a lot, from the seasonal work loads to the simple day to day tasks. You usually work in shifts or few days in a week so that there is room to manage your other activities. Of course it can be messy without good time management. But if you really consider spending time for value-added activities during your college years, part time job maybe one of the extra 'activities' you should add into the schedule. Well, students can take jobs as follows and consider the advantages and disadvantages:

1. On-campus jobs. You can contact the college employment service to find information about on campus jobs. In many campuses, administrative and other formal jobs are categorized into work study. If you are not qualified for them, then you can find positions at the hostel, kitchen, or others. The jobs do not pay high, but you can enjoy the extra income of your spare time. So why not? Imagine if you work as beverage boy/girl, dishwasher, or others for few hours every day or few days in a week when you usually spend the time for sleeping or gossiping, isn't that a good choice? You earn extra money and you spend the time wisely. Of course the work is usually not challenging, but it is fine because you get some experiences and learn to be responsible. You can always find other jobs.

2. Work Study. Work study is usually job that requires you to work for several hours or shifts in a week at your university. It can be as library staff, clerk, department receptionist, administrative jobs, or others. You usually need to fill the application form provided by the Financial Aid Office at your university to see if you are qualified for work study. The pay is not high, but you have advantages for the flexible hours and the experience. Work study will give you great feel of office environment because the work and surrounding is usually quite formal and well-planned. Also, it is easier for you to manage time between class schedule and work shifts.

3. Off-campus jobs. Off campus jobs maybe the most challenging of all. You have more difficulties in time allocation and work longer hours. The pay is usually higher because the workload is too. But you should take it as a challenge to prove out your credibility and productivity. Off-campus jobs range from many, public relation, department store staff, retail staff, marketer, housekeeper, online jobs, nanny, tutor, etc. The extra income can be considerable since you may also get other benefits from the workplace.


4. Internships. Internships are great for real-work experience. You are not always paid, but it is big advantage to put intern experience in your CV. Discuss with your academic advisor about the available intern programs for your major. Even though you may not get paid, the experience should outweigh the time and effort you spend. And you can still do other jobs while that. - 16890

The basic aspects of article writing or the requisite in order to be a good article writer are language/vocabulary skills, research skills and writing environment. The writing environment will differ from article to article and this is one area where most writers find it difficult to cope with.

The language skills however remain the primary skills of article writing. This is because language skill is the thing that would help budding writers to stand on their own legs.

6 Ways To Use Christian Anger Management

By Broyde McDonald

Christian anger management instructions can be found throughout the Bible, especially in the books of Psalms and Proverbs. It is with these guidelines that Christians are to live and set an example so that the entire world would be a more orderly and peaceful place.

The instructions are not plentiful, but from place to place the wording is different. However, the meaning of what is said is not changed.

Right now we will look quickly at six of them.

Stay away from anger

Reading the Bible, you will realize why this is included in the Christian anger management plan. The two big reasons are that anger leads to sin, and anger has the effect of putting a person in danger of the judgment of God.

Let things go

Allow people to get away with things. Just fix the damage that they had caused and leave them for God to get even with. He is fair enough to see that they reap what they sow. But you need to remember that it is by forgiving others their trespasses that we can go to God to see our trespasses forgiven.

Yes it is sin

Let's suppose that they just made you furious today so you went and cussed them outor you did something else to calm your hurt feelings.

The truth is you have just done something that is wrong in God's eyes. It doesn't matter that you were made angry by the people you attacked. You are expected to be cooler than that, and to not be cool can get you into trouble.

Pray

Like all Christian effort, Christian anger management needs to start with prayer. Some things can be done without prayer, but for it to be considered a Christian event, God has to be included and praying is how a Christian gets God to be a part of things.

Don't hold it for long

The first course of action when angry is to get away from the angry feeling. The guidelines are that the sun should not go down before the Christian is calm.

This does not mean that you are to do what you can to stop the sun from moving. It is saying that before the night comes the Christian is better served by having already calmed himself from his anger while the sun was still up. - 16890

Tips to Balance between Study and Part Time Job

By Alex Wu

Working while studying is a good idea to learn new things and develop your skills. It is not just about the academic skills, but also soft skills that will be valued a lot when you later work professionally or start a business. But as part time jobs also mean more responsibility, students often find difficulties in balancing between their study and work. For sure, there are more to consider, manage, and sacrifice. But part time jobs really help you to learn the steps ahead earlier. They can be good for your resume too. Here are some tips to help you find the middle point between study and part time work.

1. Plan your time well. There should be no conflict between study and work. Once you know your class schedule, you can make arrangement about the work shifts and study schedules. It is not easy to be discipline with time, but that is the important thing you learn when taking part time jobs. Set the time, and try your best to finish all on schedule. Of course it does not need to be that strict. Some people do better with "spontaneous" scheduling, some can not. The point is to fulfill all your responsibilities. Make evaluation. When every college task is finished on time, when your grade does not go worse, and when you still get praises at the work place, then it means you are doing all right.

2. Be efficient and flexible. Part time jobs can take from 18 to over 30 hours per week. You lose that much for study and fun time. There is no way to keep the days run the same. What is possible is to learn to be efficient and flexible. You need to understand about the 'sacrifices' you have committed to. It is not necessarily so, but it is really about better time management.

By being efficient, you can think of bringing your text book or small notes during commuting and read them while waiting, or focusing on one work at a time so that it finishes right at the time and you can move on to the next task. If you know the schedule is strict, then get prepared for the day. By being flexible, you can think of doing what you like and need to do in unplanned but still controllable manners. You have to let go some things, for sure. But they can be offset pretty well if you love what you do and try to be flexible. Part time is not killing you.

3. Keep your body fit. Eat good food, do enough exercise, and take enough sleep at night. Now it starts to sound like health tips. But this is just the general rules of long term health we all need to know. What is worrying is that students often forget this, especially when they live out of the home. Make sure you maintain enough nutrients intake and exercise routinely. They will keep you fit all day long to do the tasks. Take enough sleep so that you can concentrate and feel energetic until the end of the day. Avoid junk foods, alcohols, other junk drinks like soda, and greasy foods. Take enough vegetables and fruits. They will cost you cheaper too in long term. - 16890

Affordable Web Hosting - Ups and Downs

By Nick Halmond

There are plenty of people that want to get their website online, but are not contented with the free web hosting services that are offered around the Internet. There are social networking sites and free website builders as well, but their customization features are lacking. Affordable web hosting is perhaps the best solution for people that dont want to spend too much, yet get all the nice commercial web hosting features. However, affordable web hosting has its ups and downs.

On the upside, most affordable web hosting packages are complete. They have a reasonable amount of space and bandwidth for blog sites to be hosted or even small forums to be managed. The PHP support along with other support for databases like MySQL should be enough for several different types of sites to be set up with ease.

What you should really focus on upfront is the types of back-up systems available. While it's something to worry about, there shouldn't be a problem finding a suitable site that keeps your information from being discarded in unfortunate situations. Plus, it's always nice to have back office help when needed, and FTP access if you want to upload files from the computer.

Another thing you'll want to look for is speed and security. Most affordable web hosting has uptime at 99% and speeds that reflect high speed Internet use. Even if your site is full of traffic, their servers will do the job. Just keep in mind that the more multimedia items you have on your website, the performance starts to go down some. However, just compare these to a free web hosting site and you'll notice the difference.

Unfortunately, some website owners don't understand the issues that come about with too much multimedia stuff on their site. If you mix this in with a good amount of traffic you will see a steep decline in the site's performance. When you reach this pinnacle we recommend switching over to a dedicated server. If you don't, you're sharing servers with several other websites and the experience could get worse over time.

Since you will be sharing servers with other websites most of the time, you could suffer if they're attacked by a virus. It's a major security even if you feel as though your site is secure. We always recommend backing everything up as an insurance plan so you can avoid any future issues.

Privacy may also be an issue as well since most affordable web hosting companies do not allow custom nameservers to be made. The least that you can do is pay extra for domain WHOIS privacy. Still dedicated servers offer better privacy protection and some enhanced security options as well.

So as you can see there are a few minor drawbacks to using affordable web hosting. However, they are all in the later stages of your website's success. It's important to understand when you're starting any business, you should only spend what you need to in the beginning. Once you are able to accumulate the traffic and conversion rates that will bring you a return on your investment, then it will be time to take a look at dedicated servers. For now though, stick with affordable web hosting and keep the costs down. It will truly help you out in the end. - 16890

Take Your Company Public: Have Investors Begging To Invest!

By James Scott

Take Your Company Public: Have Investors Begging To Invest! As the economy worsens and banks continue to crash and the US dollar is losing its place as the world currency American entrepreneurs need alternative funding solutions that cater to ongoing capital needs that take advantage of the international finance stage as opposed to domestic institutional lenders.

Many companies, for the first time, are considering going public as a viable option but where does one start on this trek? How much does it cost? What type of lawyer and consultants do I need? Who sells my stock? Etc.

The reality is, going public is fairly straight forward if you have a product or service that lends itself to an invest-able option to global financiers. The process of a start-up or small/medium size business going public usually begins with the basic business plan (50 to 100+ pages in length) and a Private Placement Memorandum (Regulation D Rule Exemptions 504, 505 or 506).

The company would then do an initial round of funding with accredited investors with a mini/maxi built into the offering circular that makes it possible to reach a simple benchmark that would allow the company to start using the investment cash for growth via public offering using OTCBB (over the counter bulletin boards); this is the quickest and cheapest way to go public being that 99.9% of companies don't have the liquidity and time in business to qualify for an IPO. There are several things that a company can do to make your capital raise a pleasure and not a nightmare. Start with a solid market maker that will commit to putting forth a dominating effort to sell your shares. The next thing you need to do is put a face and a voice to the company. Hire a publicist and pick an executive, usually the CEO or CFO, set up, daily interviews on radio and TV to promote the company and as you do this you will begin to see instant results. Another thing is to send out articles and press releases focusing on every single positive point, contract and strategic partners, feed that publicity machine. Branding is another powerful aspect to raising capital. Make your brand and image something that people see on online and in magazines. A solid publicist will do wonders for you. Get your press releases going on the wire to broker dealers and market makers and other stock promoters.

Fund raising has been complicated by unethical companies that are looking to create capitalization angles for themselves whether they are the business raising capital or the broker dealer buying and selling their stock. Done honestly, there is no reason a company with a viable business concept can't be successful in raising capital quickly and easily being sold on the public market. - 16890

Attention Investors: Seed Capital Investments Will Change Your Life!

By James Scott

Everyone has heard about a friend of a friend who knew a guy that had a sister who got involved with a company just before they went public, made a small seed investment and when the company went public she made millions.

Real Pre - Public investments in companies that are built to last with solid executive management and board of directors all wrapped in a industry that can still flourish in a recession are extremely difficult to find and impossible to be part of unless you are 'in the know', meaning you are the auditing or contract attorney for the company filing with the SEC, the accounting firm doing the third party audit, the consulting firm who is putting together the corporate strategies for the company or the investor relations industry that is gearing up for the publicity and promotions campaign to run in a post offering environment.

Typically the invitation to invest in a pre-public company comes in the form of a Direct Public Offering after the company is divided into shares with a private placement memorandum and before the third party audit and before and during the comments stage of the S1 filing. If you are fortunate enough to invest in a company with the above description you will most likely being offered deeply discounted stock (cheaper than what will be offered in the public market) which means you will (if the offering goes as planned) increase your initial investment amount by 200+ percent.

This is not at all a rare instance. Getting invited to invest in the pre-public, seed capital stage is actually quite simple if you know who to talk to. The best companies to become aligned with are 'go public' facilitation consultants and corporate turnaround consultants. These groups take companies public for a living and can usually plug you right in when the company is qualifying with the SEC and needs to have 40 investors on the book to qualify to go public (on the OTCBB). Simply contact the company and they will typically give you a quick information form to fill out to collect your name, phone, investment history and investment threshold.

It's a fact, once you started investing in solid pre-IPO stock investments, you will dump your broker and never buy stock the traditional way again. Now get out there and experience the power of seed capital investment! - 16890
