Release Press Release , Free Press Release

Release Press Release , Free Press Release:

Questions have been raised in recent months over the beauty craze which sees customers place their feet in tanks of water containing dozens of tiny Garra Rufa fish which nibble on dead skin.
While the pampering carries a "very low" risk for healthy clients, those with conditions including diabetes and psoriasis have now been advised against the indulgence.
The pedicures - which are popular in Asia - have been banned in some US states, including Florida, Texas, New Hampshire and Washington amid fears that infections could spread through open wounds.
The Health Protection Agency (HPA) today issued new guidance after a panel found fish tank water contained a number of micro-organisms and that infections could be transmitted either from fish to person (during the nibbling process), water to person (from the bacteria which can multiply in water), or person to person (via water, surrounding surfaces and the fish).
While it advised certain individuals to avoid treatment, it said any risk was "very low" for healthy clients when spas adhered to strict codes of cleanliness.
Dr Hilary Kirkbride, consultant epidemiologist at the HPA, said: "Provided that good standards of hygiene are followed by salons, members of the public are unlikely to get an infection from a fish spa pedicure, however the risk will be higher for certain people.
"This is why we feel it's important for salons to ensure the client has no underlying health conditions that could put them at risk, and that a thorough foot examination is performed to make sure there are no cuts, grazes or existing skin conditions that could spread infection."
Garra Rufa fish - a type of toothless carp - have become increasingly popular in salons across Britain, in part because of their novelty value.


Dr Paul Cosford, director of health protection services at the HPA, said the risk posed by the fish tanks could be kept to a minimum if spas followed "strict standards of cleanliness".
"If a member of the public is concerned about the level of cleanliness of a salon they visit, they should report this to their local environmental health department," he said.
Anyone considering a fish pedicure can help reduce health risks by ensuring cuts or infections on the feet or legs are given time to heal before treatment.
Clients are also urged to wait at least 24 hours after having a leg wax or shaving to minimise the chances of contracting an infection.
The HPA guidance has been endorsed by the Chartered Institute of Environmental Health and the Royal Environmental Health Institute of Scotland.

Interviews | Interview questions | job interview

Interviews | Interview questions | job interview:

Job Interview Mastery is a 4 step interview strategy that has been specifically engineered to help individuals find and secure the job of their dreams. If you are fresh out of college, middle management or even Senior Management, this four step process will take your career to a whole new level.

One of the things that I regret the most about my youth was the fact that my institution did not provide me with proper career guidance and interview training. So, when I completed my studies, I never took the time to discover what vocational clarity meant nor did I have access to a professional job interview trainer.

Along with my friends, I tried to design my cover letter and resume. I started applying for jobs and said a lot of prayers for my resume to be shortlisted so that I can attend a job interview. While many of my friends got jobs through campus recruitment and campus placement services, a number of us had no job once we finished college. We soon found out that not many companies wanted to hire freshers and even if they did, they were paying a very low salary.

I had no one to turn to who could design a cover letter and a professional resume for me. The best that I could come up with was to download a sample resume format from the internet or borrow a sample resume template from my friend. The only problem with that approach was that when we went for an interview, all our resumes looked the same.

Today, as I travel and speak at college campuses and educate students on the importance of job interview coaching and the importance of getting an online job interview coach, I also tell them to start their career by investing money and getting a professional resume as this is one of the keys to getting selected in a job interview.

Most college students and fresher’s do not understand the importance of a professional resume as they have not understood how the corporate world works. Two college graduates from the same college who completed the same degree can apply for the same job. However, one cover letter and resume gets shortlisted for a job interview and the other cover letter and resume does not get shortlisted for a job interview.

Why?

The reason is because one cover letter and resume looks a lot more professional and interesting and hence gets shortlisted for the job interview. So, if you want a professional cover letter and a resume created for you, please get in touch with us. We would be happy to not only provide you with online interview training but we will also design a professional cover letter and an international resume that helps you get your dream job in India or abroad.

Interview Training & Interview Questions For College Students

Over 80% of college students are completed unprepared when they attend their first job interview. Whether it is a job interview on campus or a job interview at a company, college students are not prepared because they do not know what interview questions will be asked.

They have never been for a job interview and most of them have never had any online job interview coaching. They are not prepared because they do not know how to prepare for a job interview, or how to answer job interview questions. This is one of the main reasons why a majority of college students end up doing poorly in their first job interview.

College Campuses must make it mandatory to offer their students Job Interview Coaching and Resume Services that ensures that each and every student is given a interview question template of the 25 most common job interview questions and also learn how to answer provide job interview answers.

Irrespective of what field they are going into, a majority of job interview questions for college students are common. Each college student should also have a professional cover letter and an international resume designed for them so that their chances increase in being shortlisted for a job interview.

Colleges must make it mandatory for their students to have personal one-on-one job interview training and they must tie up with a professional job interview coach so that all their students can get online job interview training or direct job interview coaching.

This will not only help their students to fair better during job interview campus recruitment but it will also help them to get selected by big brands and top multinational corporations.

VIDEO RESUMES & VIDEO JOB APPLICATIONS for College Students

In today’s job interview market, both Companies and Job seekers are become more digitized and the world of recruiting is quickly changing via digital and social media. There are a number of companies who ask for a video resume or a photo resume as they want to have a look at the job interview candidate before they decide to shortlist them for the job interview.

Making a video cover letter and a video resume requires a lot of skill and technique. The key factor in creating a video job interview application is the fact that you need have an excellent job interview video script.

Remember, a video job application is basically an interview in itself. While it is important to look your best, it is also important that you prepare yourself for your job interview video and answer important job interview questions during your job interview video recording.

Google+ approaching 20m users in less than three weeks, analysis shows | Technology | guardian.co.uk

Google+ approaching 20m users in less than three weeks, analysis shows | Technology | guardian.co.uk

Google+, the social networking product from the search engine giant, is heading for 20m users within the next few days just three weeks after its launch, according to calculations.

Paul Allen, the founder of Ancestry.com, said on Wednesday that his model which calculates its growth by the prevalence of surnames,indicates that by last Monday the site had hit 18m users and was growing at 750,000 per day.

The Google+ app for the iPhone, which was released earlier in the week, was the top free app on Apple's iTunes Store.

Allen said that the rate of growth has slowed slightly since last week, when there were a million people joining per day.

Google+, which is built as a social network that uses the idea of "Circles" - user-generated groups of people with whom to communicate. The idea is, like Twitter, to allow a wider social group than can be created on Facebook, without the need for reciprocity that its "friends" system requires, while letting people post at length rather than Twitter's 140-character limit.

Allen says that the potential for growth is enormous: "Google hasn't started marketing Google+ through any of its other channels yet. More than a billion people worldwide use Google products, including its top rated search engine, YouTube, and Blogger. Chairman Eric Schmidt says the vision is to integrate Circles and sharing with all the other Google properties. When that happens, you will likely see millions of people joining Google+ every day for some period of time."

Larry Page, the chief executive of Google, expressed delight with the growth of the service following the company's record profits and revenues last week. At the time he said that Google+ had passed 10m users. Allen says that his own model at the time showed 13m users, indicating that it is probably broadly accurate.

Allen explains his methods: "I don't have access to log files or to a massive consumer panel. I'm simply measuring how many Google+ users there are of various randomly selected surnames every day. Last week I increased the sample of surnames that I query from 100 to 1,000.

"Over a four-day period, the 100-surname sample showed a Google+ growth rate of 28.4%. The 1,000 surname sample showed a growth rate of 28.5%. [That's] statistically insignificant. So I'm not sure whether to keep running 1,000 surname queries per day or just stick with 100. Yesterday, the number of users with the 1,000 surnames jumped from 23,922 (all counted by hand) to 24,990, for an increase of 4.47%. I tried to get the count a full day after the original count, but there is no way to make sure that my data entry team can time it exactly right. The counts could be off by several hours, cutting into the accuracy."

• Meanwhile, Google is killing off Google Labs, its experimental area where it released potential products to see how users liked them.

The move is part of a refocus on tighter product releases, and away from the sometimes haphazard approach to releasing its software.

In a blogpost, the company says that "we're prioritizing our product efforts" and that "we believe that greater focus is crucial if we're to make the most of the extraordinary opportunities ahead."

Google Labs contains a huge range of products and ideas, some in nascent form. Among the engineers working on it are Andy Hertzfeld, a former Apple staffer who worked on some of the first Macintosh designs and was closely involved in the design of Google+ .

Content is king in terms of SEO



Content is king in terms of SEO

Posted: 5/31/2011
By: Jaime O'Hara
In today's digital world, it's essential for a small business to leverage search engine optimization to bring its online presence to the next level. Incorporating a variety of SEO tactics into a business marketing strategy will help a firm gain a greater number of consumers and push its brand image to the next level.

When it comes to SEO, experts often utter the phrase, "content is king." A company should post regularly updated content that features a variety of keywords - optimized for its industry and market - in order to rank high among search engine results.

"When you are making use of a blog in endorsing your small business, give your readers constructive content within your web site website. It is also imperative that you supply persistent updates," the UK News Reporter noted. "Regular actions on your blog will permit the major search engines to index your web blog rapidly."

Additionally, a firm should complement its SEO efforts with social media marketing. Not only can a business link back to its website using content loaded with keywords, but it can also boost its search engine ranking on its social pages by leveraging the same strategy.

How Google Decides When To Debunk SEO Nonsense

Jun 1, 2011 • 8:37 am | comments (2)by Barry Schwartz twitter | Filed Under Other Google Topics


As you can imagine, Google spends too much time debunking false and misunderstood information on how Google works. We covered one this morning on email marketing's effect on rankings. To be honest, we have posted some things in the seven plus years on writing on search that Google was upset with. It happens, Google has a PR team to deal with it and Matt Cutts, amongst other Google engineers, are frequently debunking false information.

Danny Sullivan put together an outstanding chart named The Matt Cutts Debunking Flowchart. It is a somewhat humorous but sometimes true flowchart of how Matt and his team decide when to debunk this information. From conspiracy theories to just wrong information, to making Google look better when they really are somewhat wrong. The large flowchart is at Search Engine Land, but here is a smaller sized version.

Google's Matt Cutts Debunk Flowchart By Danny Sullivan

So what were some of the recent debunking Google has done? Matt Cutts posted them atHackerNews:

  • Claiming that your email newsletter's Gmail reputation affects your ranking: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2600933 I did a full debunk here: http://goo.gl/6A8f9
  • Claiming that Hacker News was penalized by Panda: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2595704 I did a full debunk here: http://goo.gl/7Tw9o
  • There was an SEO blog that had a headline "Google Copying Bing's Image Results? Google Cheating Bing?" at http://www.seroundtable.com/google-indexing-bing-13477.html when in fact it was just images on bing.net and Bing neglected to have a robots.txt file. We have a policy against search results in search results, so we were happy to remove the images in less than a day. The SEO blogger changed the headline to be less sensational.
  • Oh, one more debunk: http://allthingsd.com/20110527/google-no-government-investig... The webspam team continues to take manual action to remove spam in the same way that we have for the last decade.
  • Those are the four debunks that come to mind from the last week or so. Sigh.

Of course I take a little issue with my story but I won't argue here.

The chart is fun and I can totally relate to this on a much smaller scale

Google India launches new tools to help India Inc go global

Google India launches new tools to help India Inc go global

Google India launches new tools to help India Inc go global

India Infoline News Service / 14:51 , Jun 01, 2011

This tool will be available as part of Google Ads for Global Advertisers, a new website and hub for businesses to identify, reach, and engage with customers worldwide.

Continuing with its focus on the Indian SMB sector, Google India today announced the launch of Google Global Market Finder - a free online tool for advertisers to find new markets overseas. The new tool is designed to help Indian businesses expand their business and reach out to potential customers in the international markets. This tool will be available as part of Google Ads for Global Advertisers, a new website and hub for businesses to identify, reach, and engage with customers worldwide.


The new tool will help businesses of all sizes address traditional barriers to international expansion, such as finding the right customers, translating their websites and ad campaigns into local languages, and reaching customers in foreign markets with relevant ads. The Global Market Finder and Google Ads for Global Advertisers will be available to advertisers in 43 languages.


Speaking at the ‘Think Export with Google’ event held by Google, Sridhar Seshadri, Head Online Sales, Google India said, “We have seen tremendous success with the adoption of our AdWords platform by Indian SMBs in the last two years in the domestic market. And with the launch of these new tools for export oriented businesses in India, we want to bring the benefit of Google’s global reach and help Indian SMBs compete at a global stage and overcome traditional hurdles of marketing in the international market.”


“According to the recent foreign trade data released by the Ministry of Commerce and Industry, the Indian export market has witnessed 37.5% growth in 2010-2011 fiscal year, which is a standing testimony of the huge potential of this space. With this launch, we want to reach out and help all advertisers, especially SMBs, by giving them access to information about the markets that have shown demand for their products. Since the tool determines demand based on the how often the product is searched for online in a particular geography, it is quite accurate in its assessment of demand“ he added.


Global Market Finder (http://translate.google.com/globalmarketfinder) helps in identifying new markets with high demand for your products and services. Businesses enter keywords that describe their product or service and select the region they’d like to explore. The Global Market Finder automatically translates those keywords into any one of 56 languages used in the selected region. It then ranks each location by opportunity based on factors like local search volume, suggested bid price, and competition for each translated keyword.


Google Ads for Global Advertisers (http://www.google.com/adwords/globaladvertiser) is a new website where businesses can learn how to expand into foreign markets. It contains tools and tips to help businesses:

  • Find the right market for their products and services using tools like the Global Market Finder and the Consumer Commerce Barometer.

  • Translate their website and ad text using Google Translate Web Element and Google Translator Toolkit.

  • Reach new customers with relevant online ads using services like Google AdWords.

  • Understand options for international payment, shipping, and customer service.

Google has already helped hundreds of thousands of businesses reach new customers in foreign markets. The Global Market Finder and Google Ads for Global Advertisers website will help even more businesses realize their global potential. These tools are especially relevant for SMEs as they do not have the resources required for in-depth research and insights into unexplored markets.


Sharing his experience, an entrepreneur from Kochi, Mr. Brijith Shaji, Managing Director of Arbrit Safety and Engg solutions- arbritonline.com , a consultancy service on Health and Safety management said, “Initially, for a long time we believed that our customers were limited only to Kerala and the neighboring markets at best. Google AdWords made us realise that there were several other markets whose potential we had never even considered.

For Consumers and Businesses

This week, Google introduced Google Wallet, which could either be representative of the future of how we pay for things and organize our daily lives or a massive bust. Time will tell. In the meantime, we've compiled a great deal of information about the product, and what's known about it before its true launch.

Share your thoughts about Google Wallet with us in the comments.

Here is what you need to know about google Wallet:

1. Google Wallet stores virtual versions of credit cards and coupons on a phone.

2. It will also store loyalty and gift cards in the future.

3. Google Wallet is a free app.

4. Google Wallet is separate from Google Checkout, and can be thought of as the brick-and-mortar counterpart to the online payment nature of Google Checkout

5. Google Wallet uses Near Field Communication to allow consumers to make contactless payments.

6. Google Wallet is currently field testing, but will become available to consumers this summer.

7. At first, Google Wallet will only be available on the Nexus S 4G by Google from Sprint, but Google will expand it to other devices/platforms in time.

8. Citi, MasterCard, First Data, and Sprint are launch partners for Google Wallet.

9. Google is also partnering with point of sale systems companies, including Verifone, Hypercom, Ingenico, and ViVOTech, to "introduce rich interaction between Google Wallet and the point of sale."

12. If you want to be notified about Google Wallet availability and product updates, you can give Google your email address here.

13. Google Wallet will support Citi PayPass eligible MasterCard credit cards and the Google prepaid card upon launch, but will support more in the future.

14. Users can pay with Google Wallet anywhere MasterCard PayPass is accepted.

15. Users can tap their phones on the merchant's PayPass terminal to transmit payment details.

16. You don't have to have a network connection to make a payment.

17. You can't use Google Wallet if your phone battery is dead.

18. Currently, when a user adds their Citi MasterCard to Google Wallet, they can immediately spend up to $100, but to access their full line of credit, they'll have to wait for Citi to send an activation code to enter into Google Wallet. 19. Google has very ambitious goals for Google Wallet, saying one day it may store your boarding passes, ID, and even keys.

20. Google Wallet will sync to your Google Offers (Google's recently launched Groupon competitor, which it also intends to integrate into other Google products like Search, Latitude, Maps, and Shopper.

21. According to reports, there will be stickers that customers can put on any device that can hold the information for one card, and when tapped on an NFC device, would work with Google to handle payments.

Security and Privacy Concerns

22. If your phone with Google Wallet is lost or stolen, Google says you should contact your credit card company for assistance, and that you should report your phone lost/stolen and basically take the same precautions you would have anyway.

23. Google Wallet will allow you to remove all cards from your phone by resetting it (which also removes all transaction data).

24. Google says it protects your payment credentials by storing them in a chip called the "Secure Element" that is contained within the Nexus S 4G, and is isolated from the phone's main OS and hardware. Google does not say how this will be addressed with other devices. That's probably for the manufacturers to determine.

25. Google does enforce a PIN number.

26. In terms of the possibility of a malicious app accessing your credit card, Google says, "Both the Android platform and the Secure Element are designed to prevent this from happening. Android enforces strict access policies so that malicious applications wouldn't have access to data stored by Google Wallet. Even Google Wallet itself has very limited access to the Secure Element, and cannot read or write data from its memory. There are multiple levels of protection for data stored on the Secure Element and it is protected at the hardware level from snooping or tampering."

27. Note that malware did infect Android apps as recently as March.

28. Google's response to the possibility of someone getting close to your phone to read sensitive data, is, "The NFC antenna in your phone is only activated when the screen is powered on, and even if the antenna is on and in proximity of a reader, payment credentials can only be transmitted from the Secure Element to a payment terminal if you first enter your Google Wallet PIN."

29. As far as being held liable for unauthorized transactions on credit cards store on Google Wallet, Google says the same rules apply as plastic cards.

30. Google says it does not "currently" receive data about products you purchase using Google Wallet.

31. Google Wallet does record locally on the phone the time of transaction and the credentials used to pay. There is an option to turn on a feature to record your location.

32. Google enables you to clear your transaction history from the main menu of the app. What Businesses Need to Know

33. To accept contactless payments, Google says your terminal must be ISO 14443 or 18092 standard (they will normally contain the universal contactless symbol).

34. You'll need First Data's latest systems to be able to accept Google Wallet (in addition to other contactless payments).

35. Merchants interested in participating can call First Data at 888-265-8147 (you can also request a call back here).

36. Merchants pay card-present rates for transactions made via Google Wallet (as opposed to card-not-present rates)

37. There are no additional charges.

38. Google does not take a cut of transaction fees through Google Wallet.

39. Businesses can request to become "SingleTap" merchants, where consumers can pay, redeem offers, and earn loyalty points. Merchants can integrate gift cards into Google Wallet.

40. Current SingleTap merchants include: American Eagle, Bloomingdales, The Container Store, Duane Reade, Einstein Bros. Bagels, Foot Locker, Guess, Jamba Juice, Macy's, Noah's, Peet's Coffe & Tea, RadioShack, Subway, Toys R Us, and Walgreens.

41. Current Tap and Pay merchants include Coca Cola, CVS, Jack in the Box, Sports Authority, and Sunoco.

42. Merchants can always send questions about Google Wallet to the company at wallet-b2b@google.com.

43. Google says it will remain an "open commerce ecosystem" by supporting many payment instruments with the goal of creating virtual versions of all the plastic cards that exist today, establishing APIs that issuing banks can develop for, and APIs to enable transfer of offers, loyalty programs, receipts, etc. at the point of sale, and spreading Google Wallet to more mobile devices and platforms.

"In terms of iPhone, RIM, Microsoft -- we will partner with everyone," Google VP of Commerce Stephanie Tilenius (named in the PayPal suit) is quoted as saying.

Questions

There are still plenty of unanswered questions. Rachel King at ZDNet posts some good ones, such as what happens when the battery dies? ATM cash advances? International travel?

Google is clearly very serious about the future of this app (see those aspirations mentioned earlier). I'm guessing some of these things will be addressed in time.
