To Be A Businesswoman.
Feb 28, 2009 Etc.
I have been dreaming for a long time to have our own business. I remember writing “to be a businesswoman” under the question ambition on the slum book. I dreamt of becoming a teacher first, then a businesswoman as I grew older. But I still don’t know what type of business to pursue. Add to that the fact that we really do not have enough money to fund a business. I have a slight idea of what I want to put up, but I am not sure if I’m ready for it. Then there are Home Based Franchise Opportunities which I think is better than starting from scratch. It’s because you are putting up a business that has a name and a market already. People are familiar with it plus the package and the materials are available already.

Not only for ourselves, but more for the future of our kids. Various sites and information are likewise available on the internet. Lots of environment-friendly products are also popping out everywhere, from lip balms to papers to bags, etc.. I, for one, am preferring such products over chemical-based.

Headhunting.
Feb 28, 2009 Etc.
I was in the mall last week and noticed that the search firm where I applied before is holding an office there. It made me think of reasons why such well-known headhunting firm will hold office in a mall. Probably it’s just one of their branches and the mall is a good venue to be seen by more people. Executive Search company is one of the very profitable industries that is why competition to work in such industry is high. These firms look for and recruit competent and qualified people for various executive positions in different companies and organizations. Companies want to get the most competent employees so they turn into executive search firms to do it for them.
Finding the best employees for your organization is not easy. This is where Dennis Carey, the leading executive recruiter comes in to help you in your predicament. More information can be found on Dennis Carey’s profile.

Stop Wishing For That Amazing Camera.
Feb 26, 2009 Tips & Techniques
…and appreciate the one you’ve got.
A very nice article I snagged from Digital Photography School.
All cameras have are essentially the same thing, a shutter that exposes light on a light-sensitive surface. Sure, there are differences in engineering tolerances and technical ranges and the latest technology. But Ansel Adams didn’t have today’s latest gadget. He had know-how, and practice.
The real difference between an average photo and an amazing photo, is the photographer, not the camera.
Here’s how you can make your camera amazing. It just takes a little bit of work.
1 Read your camera manual. If you don’t have it anymore, you can probably find it online. Learn every feature and aspect of the camera you have. It will take amazing pictures if you know how to use it properly.
2 Take your camera with you everywhere you go, and take lots of photos. Take photos of everything. Find something uninteresting and find a way to make it interesting. That is the essence of art.
3 Practice in manual mode. All cameras have a manual mode take a photo and change a single setting. Then change that one setting and take another photo. In my opinion this is the best way to understand the manipulation of light.
4 Make each photo count. One of the biggest downfalls of digital photography is the ability to take so many photos so easily for so little monetary investment. So we buy a cheap camera and snap away, hardly taking a thought to what is in the view finder. STOP! Think about your next photo, then take the time to make it amazing. You’ll start thinking like a photographer and your photos will improve ten fold.
5 Keep your best photos in a special place, discard the rest. Professional photographers take thousands of and show only their best to the client. Take photos for you, you are your own client. One day you’ll look back and be amazed at your work.
Now get to work.
So I really don’t need a new camera after all. Oh well. Off to search for barcode scanners.
Digital Photography for Moms.
Feb 23, 2009 Photography
I just want to share this site called Digital Photography for Moms I came across earlier. Most moms I know are into photography. Of course there are still some that are just not into pictures. Anyway, the moms I get to interact with oftern are into scrapbooking so it’s no surprise that they are likewise interested in taking pictures. Naturally, we all want nice pictures in our scrapbook pages. So aside from spending money on scrapbooking kits and albums, these moms also set aside funds for a good digital camera and memory card.
