Kiếm tiền từ blog của bạn 2007-05-23 00:20:00 Đa số những quảng cáo kiểu “kiếm tiền trên mạng” đều không đáng tin hoặc không bõ công. Tuy nhiên, nếu việc đó xuất phát từ một công ty có uy tín như Google thì có lẽ có lẽ chúng ta cũng nên cân nhắc. Dịch vụ Google Adsense không yêu cầu bạn click vào đâu cả mà chỉ thống kê xem các quảng cáo của họ đặt trên trang web của bạn có bao nhiêu người viếng để tính tiền chi trả cho bạn mà thôi. Nói đến kiếm tiền trên mạng, có thể bạn sẽ nhăn mặt thầm nhủ “chuyện tào lao, lừa đảo”... Nhưng khi vấn đề có liên quan đến Google thì hẳn đây là một việc nghiêm túc. Nếu bạn là một webmaster và muốn sử dụng trang web của mình để “kiếm chác” chút đỉnh thì Google Adsense là một công cụ mà bạn nên quan tâm. Chỉ riêng danh tiếng của Google cũng đã đủ là một sự b

Today's Joke (May 08, 2007) 2007-05-08 00:18:00 A Scotchman's appetite A Scotchman in a tavern bet 100 dollars that he could eat a turkey and three pounds of sausages. The turkey was cooked and set before him, and the man ate it up; then the sausages were cooked and set before him and the man ate them up. He got his money, drank a few glasses of beer and went home with a friend. When they were near his house, he said to his friend:"Don't speak of the bet to my wife. Don't tell her that I have eaten so much." "Why?"asked his friend. "Because she would give me no supper."answered the man.Source: http://giangdaytructuyen.blogspot.com Read more:Today
Show 370 Tuesday 8 May 2007-05-08 00:06:00 Going to Canada 2007Day 1: Kutchan to TaipeiOn the way to the airport we stopped to film a piano.If you've ever been from New Chitose airport to Niseko by bus, you've probably visited these toilets. There's a piano playing by itself right by the doors going into the toilets.We left the car at a place near the airport.It only cost 7000 yen to park it there for 6 months. So cheap!We got on the plane OK. Every time I travel I think I have everything sorted but a new problem presents itself.This time I found there was a new law that means you can't take bottles with more than 100 mils of liquid inside them onto the plane. This would have been handy to know before we checked our bags in. Oh well, they were nice and let us check in the bottles separately.The immigration officer told me to take care because it was hot in Taiwan.I found two mistakes on the sign near at the boarding gate.There was no window where we were sitting. Bummer.We hope to make your flight more comfortable and enjoy Read more:Tuesday

And she stayed in Auckland for 10 months and studied reflexology and worked at a Japanese restaurant.What is the food like at Japanese restaurants in New Zealand?Yeah, sometimes good. But sometimes terrible. Yeah. When I see sushi, sushi is always with nori and rolling, roll sushi. And my friend asked me in Japan ... actually my boyfriend asked me about sushi in Japan. He said “what is this?”. “This is sushi”. And I said ... and he said “no, sushi should be rolling”. So, I was surprised.What most surprised you when you went to New Zealand?Ah, it was ... I didn’t know about Japan, Japanese culture, Japanese things, more than I thought. I studied a lot of things in New Zealand about Japan. About what did Japan do at the World War 2, or yeah ... many things. In Japan we can watch the movie about the war but they are just only for Read more:Monday

Show 366 Friday 4 May 2007-05-03 23:57:00 Hi, I’m Sarah. Welcome to The Daily English Show.Today I have some news. Drum roll, please.The Daily English show’s next location has been decided. This show started in Tokyo, then moved to Niseko and the next location is ... Canada.I’ve never been to Canada before, in fact, I’ve never been anywhere in that whole continent of America. So it’s pretty exciting.So we (my boyfriend and I) are going to be doing Wwoofing. Wwoofing stands for world wide opportunities on organic farms. I always thought it stood for willing workers on organic farms – but anyway. It’s a kind of volunteer organization – and you do volunteer work on organic farms – and you get food and accommodation provided.It’s not full time work – just about 4 hours a day, so I’ll have plenty of time to keep doing The Daily English Show and teaching online. I’m really looking forward to meeting some interesting Canadian people. And learning some Canadian English – and hopefully learning something abo Read more:Friday
Are You a Listener or a Reader? 2007-05-24 03:12:00 Some people understand better by listening, others by reading. Which are you? Do you know?As management guru Peter Drucker points out in his book, "Management Challenges for the 21st Century," "Very few people even know that there are readers and there are listeners, and that very few people are both. Even fewer know which of the two they themselves are"Drucker illustrates the point with examples of recent U.S. Presidents: Eisenhower and Kennedy were readers. Eisenhower's staff made sure he was given questions from the press in writing before a briefing or conference. Kennedy, who knew he was a reader, assembled an admirable staff of brilliant writers such as Arthur Schlesinger and Bill Moyers, who wrote to him before discussing the memos in person.Franklin Roosevelt, Harry Truman, and Lyndon Johnson were listeners. FDR and Truman enjoyed oral give-and-take and were good at it. Lyndon Johnson, with years as a gifted parliamentarian, was - indeed, had to be - an excellent Read more:Reader

Listening for the Fine Print 2007-05-12 03:25:00 My aerobics classmates looked amazed when I nonchalantly tore the white tags from the gym's new foam exercise mats. The tags read "UNDER PENALTY OF LAW THIS TAG IS NOT BE TO REMOVED except by consumer." (I suspect the mattresses in their homes may still have the tags attached.) They hadn't looked for, or noticed, the fine print.In fact, many of them may never have read beyond the first lines on their labels. The fine print in contracts generally comes at the end. The specific details in news stories also comes towards the end, well after the headlines. And the "fine print" in personal accounts that people share with us in conversation tend to show up later on.Sometimes those details are sprinkled throughout and, like small forest animals, require alertness and awareness to notice and hear. Big problems in listening that cause us to miss small but critical details include:1. Jumping to conclusions . Assuming we already know what's coming.2. Impatience , often because the listener wan Read more:Listening

Learning To Listen 2007-05-11 03:23:00 By Laura Davisn a culture which honors "doing," multi-tasking and filling in all the empty spaces in the day, the art of listening has been all but lost. Even in the best of circumstances, listening is hard and when people feel angry, hurt, or feeling backed into a corner, the difficulty magnifies. Fortunately, you don't have to be good at listening in order to become better at it. Listen
ing is a discipline. Like playing scales on a piano, the more you work at it, the better you become. All it takes is a clear intention and the willingness to practice. It's best to start with conversations in which you don't have a lot at stake--a neighbor you're chatting with over the fence or an old friend you bump into at the grocery store. Observe where your mind goes when you are supposedly listening. Pay attention to how frequently you think of the past or the future, how often you are busy planning your next sentence rather than hearing what is being said. Notice how quickly and incorrigibly Read more:Learning
