When it comes to noodles, especially instant ones buy a brand that has been recommended by someone you trust and stay away from anything that costs 5p from Asda or Tescos as you normally get what you pay for. When in doubt, the building block of a good bowl of noodles is Nissin ramen. In nearly all oriental supermarkets, Nissin dominates the shelves. They used to be sold in Sainsburys and Tesco’s, but not any more for some unknown reason.
All flavours are good, my favourite being classic Beef or seafood. I seem to remember they also did or still do a Tom yum flavour. I may have dreamt this though as I often dream about noodles!
As a business owner you almost definitely need an online colaboration system. Why I hear you ask? here are a few examples that I have needed and used them for in the past.
Managing shared calendars
Let say you manage a small team of people. Having their calendars online and shared will make it easy to see who is on holiday and who isn’t. Booking work for them will be a breeze too.
Private discussion groups
You can talk with your team on private discussion about the next deal or an ongoing project in the prvacy of your own discussion board / forum. No waiting for group emails to be recieved as the responses posted will be instant.
Keeping shared documents updated
Online collaboration really comes into its element here. For example if you have a conference planning spreadsheet which two or more people need to see and you are emailing it backwards and forwards it can usually be a real pain to keep it updated or to make sure everyone gets the latest updated version.
If more than one person updates the spreadsheet and emails it out that will have created at different versions. It will then be hard to get back to one version without some major headache!
With online colaboration, this spreadsheet would be stored online and users would always edit and view the latest version.
Access from anywhere
You can forget bringing the laptop out all the time. All you need is a webbrowser and you can then access your documents online anywhere. You don’t even need to have spreadsheet or word processing software installed.
There are many benefits of online collaboration and Central Desktop allow you to try it for free.
I know its everywhere by now, but i just found out and i am very shocked by the news. Michael Jackson was 50 years old at the time of his death and leaves behind 3 children: Michael Joseph Jackson, Jr., Paris Michael Katherine Jackson and Prince Michael Jackson II.
Michael Jackson was loved worldwide and was known worldwide as one of the greatest performers of all time. He was a pop icon and will be missed greatly by all his fans.
Its true faxes are required a lot less in the age of emails and websites, but I have come across several occasions when an email is not good enough.
Sometimes you just need to fax
I’ve used 3 mortgage brokers over the past 5 years and only 1 of them would accept my proof of identification which is usually my passport and a utility bill via email. The other 2 brokers insisted that I fax these to them. I couldn’t understand why they needed a fax until I quizzed one of them. Donna, my then mortgage broker told me that when she printed emails off the sizing gets all messed up. Whereas if I faxed it to her it would come out of the fax machine in the correct size!! So that was it, because she didn’t know how or couldn’t resize images she had to have my ID’s faxed to her. But I didn’t have a fax machine.
Well what do you do when you do not have a fax machine or you are a very active individual and having a fax machine in an office somewhere would mean that you wouldn’t be able to use it most of the time?
Get eFax
You no longer need an actual fax machine to conduct your business. With eFax you can send and recieve faxes directly to and from your email address. Allowing you to conduct your fax needs from anywhere you can access your emails. You even get a local fax machine number so your customers will not even know you don’t have a real fax machine or you are in Thailand on the beach.

BEXHILL-BASED mortgage broker Eastbourne Financial Services Ltd is at the centre of a suspected £40m fraud investigation. Officers from the City of London Police arrested eight people in connection with the probe into fraud affecting mortgages taken out on more than 500 properties in the South of England between 2005-2007.
The seven men and one woman arrested are between 29 and 59-years-old and were arrested on suspicion of conspiracy to defraud and money laundering.
The Company is currently in liquidation and no longer authorised by the FSA. The City of London Police action followed a referral from the FSA, which has been closely involved in the investigation. The compnay specialised in subprime, buy to let and non conforming mortgages.
The Bank of England yesterday agreed to make everyone on a tracker mortgage richer by reducing the base rates again. This time the base rate was reduced by 0.5% bringing it to an all time low of 0.5%.
This rate cut will benefit everyone on a tracker or discount mortgage which tracks the bank of england base rate. Research show that only about one quarter of all mortgage holders will benefit from the rate cut. I guess I fall into that category. I secured a deal which is 0.95% below the base rate, which should mean that the bank will be paying me interest on my loan. Well I wont hold my breath on that!
Most investors who bought in the last two years will have bought using tracker mortgages or fixed rate mortgages that will be coming of the fixed rate now, or very soon. This is good news too as the mortgages will switch to the lenders SVR (standard variable rate) which is usually base rate plus 2% which will now be a stupidly low 2.5%. So as capital values tumble at least investors will have much improved cashflow.
Lottery spokesman Dominick DeMarco said the one winning ticket in Tuesday’s multi-state US Mega Millions $212-million drawing was sold in Ocean County, N.J.
The winner will earn about $8.1 million a year, before taxes, for the next 26 years as an annuity. I always thought you had more chance of getting run over by a car as you did of winning a lottery. Well the lucky winner of 212m USD doesn’t think so.
Lottery sales increased dramatically as people poured their money to take a chance on this Mega Millions drawing, which offered a jackpot of $ 212 million, the 10 largest in the history of the game.
The game offered in Massachusetts, California, Georgia, Illinois, Maryland, Michigan, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Texas, Virginia and Washington. Drawings are held on Tuesdays and Fridays.
The biggest jackpot of $ 390 million in March 2007, which was divided into players from Georgia and New Jersey. A woman from Massachusetts won the fourth-largest jackpot, $ 294 million in 2004.
