Australia Says NO Again....to Syariah

Bravo! Bravo!

What a Lady !!!! We should have more leader like her in the world.

Australia says NO - Second time she has done this!

Australian Prime Minister does it again!!
This woman should be appointed Queen of the World. Truer words have never been spoken.

It took a lot of courage for this woman to speak, what she had to say for the world to hear. The retribution could be phenomenal, but at least she was willing to take a stand on her and Australia 's beliefs.
The whole worldneeds a leader like this!

Prime Minister Julia Gillard - Australia

Muslims who want to live under Islamic Sharia law, were told on
Wednesday to get out of Australia, as the government targeted radicals
in a bid to head off potential terror attacks.

Separately,
Gillard angered some Australian Muslims on Wednesday by saying she
supported spy agencies monitoring the nation's mosques.
 

Quote:
'IMMIGRANTS, NOT AUSTRALIANS, MUST ADAPT. Take It Or Leave It.
I
am tired of this nation worrying about whether we are offending some
individual or their culture. Since the terrorist attacks on Bali , we
have experienced a surge in patriotism by the majority of Australians. '


'This culture has been developed over two centuries of
struggles, trials and victories by millions of men and women who have
sought freedom'

'We speak mainly ENGLISH, not Spanish, Lebanese,
Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, or any other language. Therefore,
if you wish to become part of our society. Learn the language!'

'Most
Australians believe in God. This is not some Christian, right wing,
political push, but a fact, because Christian men and women, on
Christian principles, founded this nation, and this is clearly
documented. It is certainly appropriate to display it on the walls of
our schools. If God offends you, then I suggest you consider another
part of the world as your new home, because God is part of our culture.'


'We will accept your beliefs, and will not question why. All we
ask is that you accept ours, and live in harmony and peaceful enjoyment
with us.'

'This is OUR COUNTRY, OUR LAND, and OUR LIFESTYLE,
and we will allow you every opportunity to enjoy all this. But once you
are done complaining, whining, and griping about Our Flag, Our Pledge,
Our Christian beliefs, or Our Way of Life, I highly encourage you take
advantage of one other great Australian freedom, 'THE RIGHT TO LEAVE'.'


'If
you aren't happy here then LEAVE. We didn't force you to come here. You
asked to be here. So accept the country YOU accepted.'

Job Hunting in this Economy

I know how bad the economy is these days. Cratchit prattles on incessantly about how difficult the times are and how lucky he is to have his current situation. Him, a clark making 15 schillings a week with a wife and family and he is happy about it.

From time to time, I like to terrorize Cratchit and have discussions about how to look for a job in a bad economy. He often leaves these conversations looking quite pale and stays to himself the rest of the day.

Remember that employers want value when they hire you. If you are just another face in a crowd of people with the same background and experience as everyone else, then you do not stand much of a chance at finding the job that you want. Let me point out a few things that will help you to improve your chances of finding a job in a bad economy. If you are persistent enough, I may even give you Cratchit's job.

- Your Resume

What does your resume say about you that will make employers want to interview you? Resume experts that tell you to follow a template are steering your wrong. Yes, your resume should have a professional format to it. But the content needs to really stand out in order to be effective. Start off with a summary of your career accomplishments and your career goals. Let the human resources manager see your highlights right away.

Use a consistent structure for your resume so it is easy to find information on it. The layout should flow from beginning to end in manner that presents your information in a concise but interesting way. Don't skimp on the resume. Hire a professional to help you lay it out and design it. Your resume is the first impression you make on an employer. It is one of the most important job hunting tools you have, so make it count.

- Your Skills

If you are having a difficult time finding a job, then you should be looking for ways to add to your skills. Attend training classes pertinent to your industry or get certifications that will add value to your experience. It is entirely possible that you will have a lot of down time during your job hunt. Rather than let that down time go to waste, you should use it to improve your educational and professional background to help you stand out from other candidates.

Here is an idea that some of you may find hard to take. Go to work for free if you cannot find paying employment. Yes, I know. It seems counter-productive. But you can look at it as a sort of unpaid internship. If you are a marketing professional, then offer your services, on a limited basis, to local companies at no charge. Your only requirement is that you get to list the experience on your resume and the company management gives you a letter of recommendation when you leave.

This little trick accomplishes two things. First of all, it gives you valuable work experience to add to your resume. Secondly, it can act like an unpaid audition for the company that decides to give you a break. Remember to offer only limited services. If you do a good job on a limited basis, the company may offer you full-time employment. It is a good alternative to doing nothing at all and getting nowhere.

Finding a job in this kind of an economy is a challenge. But if you continue to work on things that will allow you to stand out from the rest of the crowd, then you will eventually land the job you are looking for. I have to get going now. Cratchit just put more coal on the fire and I need to remind him about the coal policy in this office as it applies to his situation. Good luck!
