Careers Fears Should Conquered !

By: Susan Johnston

For most people, Halloween conjures scary images of witches, goblins, and ghosts. But for many workers, there are other fears lurking in the shadows all year: like the fear of being reprimanded, laid off, or stuck in a dead-end Job. According to Ford R. Myers, president of Career Potential, LLC, and the author of "Get the Job You Want, Even When No One's Hiring," "the American workplace is largely driven by fear. Most bosses use fear as a mechanism to control and drive the employee's activity." - Job

Fear #1: What if I get laid off?
Given the unemployment rate, layoffs are a chillingly real possibility for many workers. However, you can cope with that fear by actively building your network. "Regardless of whether you believe you'll be laid off, you should proactively engage in your professional community," says Michael Woodward, PhD, an executive coach and the author of the "The You Plan." "Belong to your professional association or community organizations. ... The difference between those who stay unemployed and those who are quickly able to get back on their feet is that the latter have strong networks."
Fear #2: If I don't get laid off, but others do, will I be able to handle the added responsibilities?
When companies downsize, often the best employees get "rewarded" with more work. This can cause job-performance anxiety, especially if the new tasks are outside your skill set or if you're afraid of adding another project to your to-do list. In this situation, Woodward suggests reaching out to your boss and coworkers for guidance. "Knowledge helps create certainty," he says. "You could wallow in that stress or you could say, 'I need some clarification on a couple of points.' It's an opportunity to broaden your skill set and to make yourself more valuable in the future."
Fear #3: Will I be underemployed forever?
Often younger workers end up in support roles where they may not feel challenged. More-experienced workers can also wind up in this predicament due to a layoff or workforce re-entry. However, thinking ahead to your next position keeps things in perspective when it feels like you're endlessly folding t-shirts or fetching coffee. "The smart person does not just ... do what the boss tells them and nothing more," says Myers. "They should consistently grow their credentials. Step up for the juicier, more challenging assignments. Show up earlier; leave later." Remember, the old model of your boss or human resources managing your career is no longer applicable. It's up to you to determine your next steps.
Fear #4: What if my boss yells at me again?
A boss who yells or criticizes you in front of others can really damage morale, so Myers advises that people be "very, very careful about the culture that they choose." Another thing, he says, "is to be very proactive and clear with your boss when you first get hired about how you establish the relationship and set the right precedent." If you're already in a job with a toxic boss, you can sometimes manage a situation (and prevent future problems) by discussing it in a calm, nonthreatening manner. "Don't bring it up in public and don't point fingers," Myers advises. "Say to your boss, I have a concern about something that happened. I'm not sure what your motivation was. I may have misunderstood, but this was my perception; I'd like to get your take on it."

Re New Your Work In 2011

Sometimes, a job even a pretty good one--can start to feel like it's "going nowhere." But although you may want to advance your career, you may not be in a position to look for a New Job. Maybe you're in an industry where staffing is still tight. Or maybe you just started a new job, and you'd like to put in a few years before moving on. Or maybe you can't take a financial risk right now.
Whatever the case, there are small changes you can make that will boost your Career without giving it a major overhaul. We asked several experts for their tips:
1. Improve relations with your boss.
Your direct supervisor is one of the most important people in your professional life. If that relationship is feeling strained, get back into your boss's good graces by figuring out how to best communicate with him or her, suggests Katherine Reynolds Lewis, a workplace journalist for About.com and the Fiscal Times. "So often, managers have so little time to do the management, so you have to manage up," she says. Ask your supervisor if you can schedule a weekly check-in meeting. Or if your manager is more spontaneous, strike up a conversation and subtly mention your latest accomplishments. "Don't assume that your boss knows when you've done a great Job," urges Lewis.
2. Beat procrastination or lateness.
If you struggle with tardiness or procrastination, then Fearless Career coach Victoria Ashford suggests owning up to the weakness and enlisting coworkers to help you stay accountable. "The biggest hindrance is not having a good support system," she explains. "Tell people, 'This is a problem for me,' and get them to share their techniques." Understanding the consequences can also help. "If you're not there on time, the door gets closed for a meeting," says Ashford, "and the embarrassment of you peeking through the glass reinforces the need to be on time." - Job Vacancy

5 New Year's Career Resolutions for 2011 !

By: Lydia Dishman

There's just something about opening a calendar for a new year that inspires us to improve our lives. So it's no surprise that New Year's career resolutions often focus on big goals--such as a promotion or a new Job.
And that's why many resolutions get tossed aside by the second week in January, according to Tracy Brisson, founder and CEO of The Opportunities Project. "We get overwhelmed when we realize that outcomes are not always in our control," she explains. But Brisson says that there are plenty of attainable goals--such as adding people to your network or committing to read one business-related book per month--that can add up to Career success.

Sara Sutton Fell, CEO of Flexjobs.com, recommends a mix of easy-to-achieve and lofty goals. She says, "The important part is to choose goals that are directly related to making you more successful in your job."
Here are some other suggestions from the experts:

Hone your elevator pitch.
For Jasmin French, principal of the personal branding firm J. French, it starts with honing your personal brand. French advises doing a simple inventory, "What did you do in 2010 that has transferable value to your employer or potential employer in 2011?" Then, she says, turn that into a succinct (60 seconds or less) pitch on what you are uniquely positioned to do better than anyone else.
French also suggests that you get people to start talking about you by updating your LinkedIn profile with any certifications you've earned or classes you're taking, as well as forwarding relevant articles. "Create your own buzz. It's self-promotion, but it's not shameless."

Brush up on hard skills.
Victoria Ashford, a leadership and career coach at Fearless Leading, suggests heading back to school for additional education, certification, diplomas, or language skills. "Once you have the knowledge and skill, it's yours forever--hard to take away," she notes. "Industries and work environments change, so make sure you're keeping up. Be intentional about your knowledge base and upgrade or update it now."

Solidify your soft skills.
While you're admiring that new diploma hanging on the wall, Ashford cautions that you shouldn't forget about "soft" skills, such as business etiquette, body language, and personal accountability. "Master the arts of introductions, conversation, and establishing professional presence. Ask others to judge your handshake, table manners, and posture," she advises.
A University of Illinois study concluded that 55 percent of the first impression you make is based on your appearance and your body language. And while first impressions are made within the first 30 seconds of meeting someone, it can take up to as many as 21 interactions to undo a bad first impression. French says, "If you want to be known for being detail-oriented, hem your pants, polish your fingernails, or iron that shirt."

Work better with others.
Susan Bender Phelps, a trainer and speaker with Odyssey Mentoring, urges employees to treat everyone they work with as if they are a customer. "Everyone includes your company's management team, your direct supervisor, even your cubicle-mate. Provide knock-your-socks-off service."
Bender Phelps says that one place to start is by sharing credit with your team and with everyone in the organization who contributed to a success. "When you do this consistently, you become the kind of leader people will want to follow, regardless of your title." Likewise, acknowledge people when they do great work, and be specific: "Give evidence that demonstrates you understand their work and the difference it made to the organization."
Approach failure as an opportunity.
"Use every failure or mistake as an opportunity to learn and plan for the future," emphasizes Bender Phelps. She recommends paying attention to what you were trying to accomplish, what you did to make that happen, what went right, and what went wrong. By taking time to consider what went into a failed initiative, you can learn what could have been done better--and in the future, if you're presented with a similar situation or project, you'll know what you should do differently.

"The Best 11 Ways to Hurt Your Career"

By Megan Malugani, Monster Contributing Writer.

While most Career advice focuses on how to succeed, we can all learn valuable lessons by dissecting Career failure as well. Workplace experts offer insights into some of the top ways workers undermine their own careers and jeopardize their career development.

1. Not Taking Your Education Seriously
If you party too much in college and end up with a run-of-the-mill 2.5 GPA, you'll be passed over for the best entry-level jobs, says New York City-based executive recruiter and coach Brian Drum, of Drum Associates. Not finishing your master's degree is another way to hurt your career-development goals, adds Anne Angerman, a Career coach with Denver-based Career Matters.

2. Not Having a Plan
In the current poor Job market, you may have defaulted into a Career you aren't crazy about. That's OK, as long as you develop Career plans to get where you want to be. "Think of every Job you take as a stepping-stone to your next Job," Drum advises.

3. Lying
You'll lose professional credibility in a hurry if you lie, from exaggerating on your resume to getting caught fibbing on Facebook. "If someone calls in sick to work and then that evening posts a photo on Facebook of their extra day vacationing in Cabo San Lucas, that's a big problem," says corporate etiquette specialist Diane Gottsman of the Protocol School of Texas in San Antonio.


4. Sullying Your Reputation on Facebook or Twitter
Social media can harm your reputation in other ways, too. Personal posts and tweets from work--when you're supposed to be doing your job--can tag you as a slacker. And the content of your posts or tweets can come back to haunt you as well--you never know who might stumble upon those bachelor-party photos. "You need to assume that every boss and potential employer knows how to use Facebook, Twitter, and MySpace, and post from the standpoint that everyone is watching--even if in reality they're not," Gottsman says.

5. Not Respecting Professional Boundaries
Sharing TMI about your personal life with colleagues is unprofessional. "Your coworkers don't want to hear about your fights with your husband," Angerman says. On the other hand, if you're ultraprivate and work with a chatty group, join the conversations occasionally so coworkers don't resent you.

6. Gossiping, Slandering, and Excessively Criticizing
If you publicly bash fellow employees, the boss, the board of directors, or even your competitors, you'll be perceived as negative at best and a troublemaker at worst. The ramifications can be broad and long-term, Gottsman says. "Industries are tight," she says. "You don't want to be the one who started that rumor about the head of your industry." As far as bad-mouthing competitors--what if your company merges with a competitor, or you want to work for one someday?

7. Carrying on an Inappropriate Relationship with Your Boss|
Never a good idea, but an especially bad one if your boss is married. "When you get involved in a drama or in something unethical that can be brought out in the open, you're asking for trouble," Gottsman says.

8. Not Controlling Your Alcohol Intake or Libido
Getting drunk at the office party or on a business trip damages your credibility. Ditto a romantic, ahem, "indiscretion" that your colleagues know about.

9. Job-Hopping Just for the Money
Job-hopping--in moderation--may not automatically disqualify you from a position. "But it gets to the point--like if you have seven or eight Jobs by the time you're 35--that employers are not going to want to invest in you," Drum says. Also, if you have leadership aspirations, keep in mind that the top dogs of many large corporations have been with those organizations for long periods, he says. Additionally, many companies have "last in, first out" layoff policies, which could leave you out of a Job if you never stick around long enough to build tenure anywhere.

10. Losing Touch with References
You'll kick yourself later if you leave a job without collecting personal contact information from colleagues who can serve as professional references for you in the future. "If you were forced to leave a job and you can't ask your boss for a reference, hopefully you've built up some rapport with a colleague and can ask them," Angerman says.


11. Leaving a Job on Bad Terms
Job Indonesia - Don't become a lame duck when you've got one foot out the door, Drum says. "The employer only remembers about the last five minutes you were there," he says. Give proper notice and don't leave a mess behind. And by all means, do not make a huge dramatic production of it when you quit, complete with cursing, slandering, and throwing things, Gottsman advises. "It's very difficult to get another job when you've left destruction in your wake," she says. - Indonesia Vacancy

Top 10 ways to love Seoul - Lonely Planet

Author: Simon Richmond, Lonely Planet

Job Indonesia - An old Korean proverb says, “Even if you have to crawl on your knees, get yourself to Seoul!” It is a view that The New York Times concurred with by tipping the South Korean city – which in January assumed the mantle of World Design Capital – as one of its top places to visit for 2010. - Job Vacancy
Lowongan Kerja - Like any booming metropolis, Seoul sure is not perfect. But there are plenty more reasons to embrace rather than reject one of Asia's most underrated and unjustly maligned cities. The following ten, presented in no particular order, will set you on the fast track to loving Seoul.
1. The galleries
"Eclectic" hardly covers Seoul's buzzing contemporary art scene, which ranges from dreamy modern renditions of traditional Korean landscape paintings to quirky public art sculptures. Spend a day being amazed by the varied offerings in the galleries of Insa-dong, Samcheon-dong and up-and-coming Tongui-dong.
2. The architecture
Compensating for all those sterile apartment blocks are the picturesque traditional quarter of Bukchon Hanok Village and striking contemporary structures such as the Leeum Samsung Museum of Art or Tangent, the HQ of Hyundai Development Corp. By the end of this year the city will also have Zaha Hadid's futuristic Dongdaemun Design Park & Plaza as its show pony.
3. The saunas
An ideal way of recovering after a night's partying in Seoul (it is highly recommended to hit the bars and clubs of happening Hongdae over the expat enclave of Itaewon) is sweating it out at a jimjilbang, a traditional Korean sauna. Slip into the foreigner-friendly Silloam Fomentation Sauna, near Seoul Station.
4. The free entertainment
Thrilling demonstration of taekwando at Gyeonghui-gung; the changing of the guard at Gyeongbok-gung; traditional music performances at Seoul Plaza; spectacular light shows along the Cheong-gye-cheon, at N-Seoul Tower and the Bampo Bridge - it will not cost you one won to enjoy any of these regular public events.
5. The tea shops
Sipping a fruity, herbal beverage and nibbling rice cakes in a quaint teashop is one of Seoul's great pleasures. Tiny Yetchatjip is famous for the songbirds that flit around its bric-a-brac-packed salon, but we prefer Dawon for its airy gallery-surrounded courtyard and traditional hanok tea room. Both can be found in Insa-dong.
6. The greenery
Concrete abounds in Seoul, but there is also no shortage of natural greenery. Soak up the serenity of the Secret Garden at World Heritage-listed Changdeokgung, or saunter along the revived Cheong-gye-cheon, an ingeniously landscaped stream flowing through Seoul's heart. One of our favourite spots is beautiful Seonyu-do Park, crafted from an old water filtration plant on an island in the Han River.
7. The hiking
More greenery is at hand in the mountains and hills that encircle the city - fantastic, accessible hiking territory for all. Shadow the remains of Seoul's ancient fortress walls for panoramic views from the summit of Bukaksan or climb sacred Inwangsan, where shamans still practice their daily rituals.
8. The shopping
Whatever you want to buy, it is sure to be on sale in Seoul. For a taste of old Asia, flex your bargaining skills at the buzzing all-night Namdaemun or Dongdaemun markets, or go contemporary and cruise the slick boutiques and department stores of Myeong-dong and Apgujeong.
9. The cycling
Freeways dominate Seoul, but as part of its drive to be more eco-minded the city has started to promote pedal power. Bicycle rental stations are becoming more common, and dedicated cycle paths along much of the Han River provide great views and a fun way to exercise.
10. The food
Seoul offers some of Asia's best eating, from sizzling nokdu bindaetteok (mung-bean pancakes) at Gwangjang Market to elegant royal banquets at Korea House. Gourmands should also schedule a visit to Noryangjin fish market, where all kinds of marine life is just waiting to be consumed. Enjoy!

Spaniards Little Upset That Has Lost Bid.

Author: bbc.co.uk - Job Vacancy

Lowongan Kerja - The Spain-Portugal bid had been low-profile all along. Even on decision day it was not front-page news, and barely merited a mention on the morning TV bulletins. - Job Indonesia
Last week, Miguel Angel Lopez - the man heading the bid team - explained that the focus was on securing the support of Fifa's 22 executive members, not "handing out glasses of Spanish wine at events."
Some suggest Spaniards are still smarting after giving heart and soul to their bid to host the 2016 Olympics, and losing.



Spaniards Little Upset



So there were no expectant crowds out on the chilly streets today.
But plenty of people had been quietly confident about their chances.
What the Iberian bid offered was a safe bet for Fifa: a sure-fire footballing fiesta, held in two countries that are passionate about the game.
Much of the infrastructure was already in place. Spain has Europe's biggest and best high-speed rail network, and several refurbished airports; together, Spain and Portugal offered seven elite stadiums already built, and in use - and no trouble at all in filling them.
Presenting the Iberian bid in Zurich, Prime Minister Zapatero also highlighted the peninsula's enticing scenery and culture - and the climate.
Fifa, though, went for something completely different.
'Real shame' "Iberian Disappointment," was the reaction on Marca.com, a sports website, as news of Russia's victory emerged. "Spain and Portugal's dream is over."
That regret was reflected on the streets of Madrid.
"All us football fans would have loved to have the World Cup here, so close, so we could go," Ricardo said. "It's a real shame we lost."
"It's regrettable, because I think Spain has the best league in the world," said Pedro. "People would have been very excited, especially after just winning the World Cup."
Some people think the fact that Spain had already hosted a World Cup - in 1982 - counted against it. Others blame global politics.
Spanish newspapers suggest the Iberian bid's final presentation did not help: "flat and unimaginative," according to El Pais.
Winning the contest to host the World Cup could have lifted the mood in two countries in the deep gloom of recession. But some people are relieved it went to Russia.
"I'm happy we didn't win," says Juanjo Bombillas. "I don't think the economic circumstances here are right now to make the kind of investment we'd have needed."
At least Spain has its success on the pitch as consolation.
"Losing this doesn't bother me," Javier said. "We're already world champions, so let Russia have this one - I don't mind."

2 Scientists Become Victims (Iran arrests over attacks on nuclear scientists)

Author: bbc.co.uk - Lowongan Kerja

Job Vacancy - One scientist was killed and another left seriously injured. Intelligence Minister Heidar Moslehi said a number of people were identified and arrested in connection with what he called the two terrorist attacks. Mr Moslehi did not identify the suspects, nor did he say how many people had been arrested. But he did repeat Iran's claim that the intelligence services of the US, Britain, and Israel were responsible for the attacks. - Job Indonesia


The two scientists Victims


The two scientists, Majid Shahriari and Fereydoon Abbasi, were targeted separately as each drove to work on Monday morning. Reports said motorcyclists drove alongside the scientists' cars, attached magnetised bombs to the side of the vehicles, and then drove away. The bombs exploded, killing Dr Shahriari and seriously injuring Dr Abbasi. The attacks and subsequent arrests come just a few days before Iran is due to restart talks on its nuclear programme with the permanent members of the UN Security Council and Germany.

US-Japan Starts Military Exercises Since North Korea Tensions Rise !!!

Author: bbc.co.uk - Job Indonesia

Lowongan KerjaMore than 44,000 Japanese and American military personnel are taking part in the drill off Japan's southern islands. - Job Vacancy
40 Japanese and 20 US warships are also involved, as are hundreds of military aircraft.
The exercises come 10 days after North Korea shelled a South Korean island, killing four people.
South Korean observers are present for the first time.
'Immediate threat' The joint military exercises - codenamed Keen Sword - are being held to mark the 50th anniversary of the US-Japan alliance.

The aircraft carrier USS George Washington

They are intended to be a show of solidarity between the Pacific allies at a time of heightened tension in the region, says the BBC's Roland Buerk in Tokyo.
The drills were planned well before North Korea shelled the South Korean island of Yeonpyeong last month, killing two marines and two civilians.
But they come just days after the United States and South Korea carried out their own joint military exercises, putting on a show of force in the Yellow Sea.
US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said North Korea remained "an immediate threat to the region around it, particularly to South Korea and Japan".
North Korea also posed "a medium-term threat, should it collapse, to China", she said.
Beijing has criticised the manoeuvres and called for more talks with Pyongyang, saying it is better to negotiate than "brandish weapons".
Japan's government has been on high alert since North Korea shelled the island of Yeonpyeong on 23 November, killing at least four South Koreans.
Japan's Prime Minister Naoto Kan ordered his ministers to step up information-gathering and be prepared for emergencies.
About 50,000 US soldiers are stationed in Japan.
The US-Japan exercises will continue until 10 December.

Interpol issues "Red Notice" !!!

Author: bbc.co.uk - Job Vacancy

It said the Australian was wanted for questioning in Sweden over an alleged sex offence, which he has denied. - Job Indonesia
The Red Notice does not amount to an arrest warrant. Instead, it asks people to contact the police if they have any information about his whereabouts.
Meanwhile, Ecuador's President Rafael Correa has said he did not approve an offer of residency made to Mr Assange.


 Mr.Assange

Work praised Lowongan Kerja - Mr Assange, 39, has filed an appeal with Sweden's Supreme Court in an effort to overturn a ruling by the Stockholm district court earlier this month that he be detained for questioning on allegations of rape, sexual molestation and unlawful coercion, stemming from a visit in August.
His petition was rejected by the Stockholm appeals court last week.
Australia is also investigating whether he has broken any laws there.
Mr Assange has dismissed the allegations as part of a smear campaign.
His mother, Christine, has spoken of her distress at the Interpol alert.
Mrs Assange, who lives in Queensland, told Australian radio: "He's my son and I love him and obviously I don't want him hunted down and jailed. I'm reacting as any mother would. I'm distressed. A lot of stuff that's written about me and Julian is untrue."
On Monday, Ecuador's Deputy Foreign Minister Kintto Lucas had praised Mr Assange's investigative work and said he was welcome to live and lecture in the country "without any conditions".
But Mr Correa told reporters that the offer had "not been approved by Foreign Minister Ricardo Patino - or the president". Mr Patino said it would "have to be studied from the legal and diplomatic perspective".
Sweden turned down Mr Assange's application for residency in October. The Scandinavian country's laws protect whistle-blowers.

Prisoner Released By Mistake 3 Times ?

Author: bbc.co.uk - Job Indonesia

Justice Minister David Ford called for an immediate disciplinary investigation into the matter. 
Lowongan Kerja - Sean Gerard Cahill was released after appearing at Laganside Courts on 24 November.
Cahill failed to turn up at Lisburn Magistrates' Court on Tuesday. He is the third prisoner released by mistake in two months. - Job Vacancy
Cahill was convicted and sentenced to one month imprisonment on a charge of aggravated vehicle-taking.
He was released at that point due to the time that he had spent on remand awaiting trial.


 David Ford


Rather than being released, Cahill should have been returned to custody pending a further hearing scheduled for Tuesday 30 November.
The second hearing was in relation to charges of robbery, possession of an offensive weapon and taking a vehicle without the owner's consent.
The error came to light when Cahill did not appear at Lisburn Magistrates' Court on Tuesday morning.
David Ford said: "I have demanded that a disciplinary investigation be launched immediately into this most serious matter.
"It is vital that we urgently find out why this has happened, and if individuals are to blame I will move swiftly to take the appropriate action.
"This is the third time in a matter of months that a prisoner has been released in error and I share the public anger that will naturally follow this latest serious incident."
The justice minister will receive a fuller detailed briefing from officials on Wednesday morning.

GE Buys 25,000 Electric Cars To Kick-Start Market !!!

Author: bbc.co.uk

Lowongan Kerja - It hopes that its purchase of 25,000 electric vehicles will drive the development of a network of charging stations, and other related products, which it produces.

Its first order is for 12,000 Chevrolet Volts, which will start to roll off GM's production lines this month.

GE will use them as company cars and lease them to corporate customers.

It intends to buy the 25,000 cars by 2015. It will use some of them in its own fleet.
The rest will go into its Capital Fleet Services business, which leases cars to corporate customers.

GM said it wanted to "lead wide-scale electric adoption and generate growth for its businesses".

GE's Jeff Immelt said he hope the purchase would "move electric vehicles from anticipation to action".

It predicts that the nascent electric vehicle market could be worth $500m (£310m; 366m euros) in revenue to GM over the next three years.

General Motors Getting Ready For Profitable Future

Author: bbc.co.uk


Job Indonesia - A year-and-a-half after the US automotive giant General Motors (GM) filled for bankruptcy protection, the Cadillac factory in Lansing, Michigan, is still churning out cars. - Job Vacancy

The Grand River Assembly, which lies about 90 miles west of Detroit, is gearing up production, hiring hundreds of new workers and getting ready to start producing a Cadillac that will be both smaller and much less thirsty than those it used to make.

Lowongan Kerja - The model is a powerful symbol of a new beginning for the bruised carmaker after last year's $50bn - £31bn at current exchange rates - bail-out by the US taxpayer.

But symbolism will not do for GM's new chief executive Dan Akerson, a former telecoms executive and naval officer known for his keen, at times even combative, focus on figures.

They are beginning to look impressive. GM made $2bn net profits during the July to September quarter, a dramatic turnaround from a near-$1bn loss during the same period a year earlier.

"The results of the third quarter clearly point to the amount of progress that GM has made," says Mr Akerson, who also has a background in private equity investment.

With sales remaining strong during the last three months of the year, GM expects to make a profit for the year as a whole.

"Although we're a different company, it's worth noting that last time GM reported a profitable year was 1994," Mr Akerson says.

Making better cars
Dan Akerson, chief executive, General Motors Mr Akerson is known as a combative executive who focuses closely on financial figures
With Mr Akerson at the helm, GM is getting ready for the second leg of a long and painful journey.

The first, which was run by his predecessors Fritz Henderson and Ed Whitacre, was all about pushing through a harsh restructuring, all under the watchful eye of a board of directors representing the US government's 61% stake in the group.
The second phase of GM's revival is about to start as the government and its co-owners - the Canadian government and the union - get ready to pass majority control of the company back to private investors.

And it is clear that this phase will have to be product-led.

In recent years, the quality of many of the models made by GM has fallen short of the quality products delivered by many of its rivals, and so the company reputation has suffered a great deal.

Mr Akerson is eager to fix that.

He knows well that building quality cars can be costly, so this year GM has spent close to $5bn on capital expenditure.

Next year, and in the years ahead, Mr Akerson is expected to spend even more - and he is eager to pass on the message.

"We've just started doing a better job in marketing our brands to consumers," he says.

International challenge
But making better cars will not be enough without further changes to GM's corporate culture, as well as a bolstering of morale in a company that has seen tens of thousands of jobs go in a matter of months.
Improved financial risk management is also vital, according to Mr Akerson, who has been pushing for closer monitoring of what profit margins different units within the firm deliver, as well as for a more deliberate approach to currency risk.
And of course, Mr Akerson says, "we continue to be vigilant in reducing cost".
But the biggest challenge will be to rebuild relations with both customers and government officials, workers and dealers, across the pond.
This is particularly important in Germany, the largest car market in Europe, where deep wounds were inflicted last year during lengthy talks with both the unions and the government.
Mr Akerson is fully aware of what needs to be done. "We know we have much work to do. We still have to fix Europe," he says.
Private investors, preparing to buy GM shares, will hope he also knows how to do it.

GM Shares Jump After Record Public Offering

Author: bbc.co.uk


Indonesia Job - Shares in General Motors (GM) have risen 3.6% on the first day of trading following the carmaker's record public share offering.

GM raised $20.1bn through its offering, making it the largest share sale in the US to date.

President Barack Obama said the firm was on track to recover the government money spent on bailing it out.

The amount raised could rise to a world record $23.1bn if underwriters exercise an option to sell more shares.

Surprisingly strong investor demand had allowed the carmaker to lift the price of the shares on offer to $33 from the $26 it had initially hoped for.

GM is returning to the market after a $50bn government bail-out.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed up 173 points at 11,183, a rise of 1.6%.
Mr Obama said: "Today, one of the toughest tales of the recession took another big step toward becoming a success story.

"American taxpayers are now positioned to recover more than my administration invested in GM, and that's a good thing."

Canada, which pumped in $10bn and owns 12% of the stock, said it too would seek to recover some of its investment by selling part of its stake.

Different ballpark
 
The day's trading began on Wall Street when GM chief executive Dan Akerson rang the opening bell on the New York Stock Exchange.

Analysis

This is a very bright start.
The share offering is more ambitious than anyone expected, and the demand for stock seems overwhelming.
Not bad for a company that almost went bankrupt 18 months ago.
But there's still a long way to go if the taxpayers are to get all their money back. The bailout cost them $50bn.
It's thought the government will have to sell its remaining stock at around $50 a share for several years to recoup its investment.
But the bailout was never only about GM. The Obama administration argued that the entire American car industry, with all its associated businesses, was at stake.
So far, the evidence suggests that something is working.
A general revival does seem to be under way, at least in terms of the profitability and competitiveness of the companies involved.
But the cost has been huge: tens of thousands of workers were laid off, plants closed, familiar brands ditched and auto dealers told to look for other work.
And the bailout itself remains hugely controversial, with the administration's critics still seeing it as an unwarranted intrusion of big government into the free market.
It's clearly in the interests of both GM and the White House for the nickname "Government Motors" to become a thing of the past.
"There's a lot of work to do, but today is the beginning of the new company," said Mark Reuss, GM's North American president.
Government officials said the company's strong market debut showed they had made the right choice in rescuing the carmaker.
"This is a bit better than people had been projecting. As to a year ago, it's not even in the same ballpark," Ron Bloom, the Treasury official in charge of the GM investment told Reuters.
"A year ago, people said, 'You have no exit, you have no strategy. This company is not fixed'."
The carmaker has raised $20.1bn from the sale of the shares. However, an over-allotment option, which will be settled over the next 30 days, would add $3bn to that figure, taking GM beyond the $22.1bn raised by the Agricultural Bank of China's market launch.
The share sale, known as an initial public offering (IPO), will allow the US government reduce its current 61% stake in the company to as low as 33%.
GM returned to profit this year for the first time since 2004. The company made $5bn during the first nine months of this year.
Scott Painter from the US car comparison site Truecar.com believes the IPO is a sign of how well the economic recovery is going.
"I think GM having a strong IPO and pricing it at the high end of the range certainly speaks well of America and confidence in America, and GM is a really good indicator of everything that we've been through over the last couple of years and how the recovery is working out," he said.

Why 'Yes' is so hard for the Irish

Author: bbc.co.uk

Job Indonesia - In a radio interview, the Governor of the Bank of Ireland Patrick Honohan confirmed what most people expected - that some kind of bail-out for Ireland seems to be on the way. They may dress it up as a loan for the banks but it will involve tens of billions of euros. Up until the governor's comments, the Irish government was sticking to its line that it did not need rescuing. - Job Vacancy

Lowongan Kerja - And indeed even after the governor had spoken, Irish Finance Minister Brian Lenihan said that his country was not yet at the point of taking a substantial international loan.

Europe's crisis managers, who have been a busy bunch this year, had not envisaged a situation where a country did not want to be bailed out. Quite the opposite. In setting up various rescue mechanisms they feared the profligate, or those who ran up bad debts, would beat a path to their door.

So when last weekend various officials - some close to the European Central Bank - began briefing that it was only a matter of time before Ireland was bailed out, they did not expect such stout resistance from Dublin.

So why did Ireland try and hold out?

The Irish government is fragile. It faces a difficult by-election. Its hold on power is slight. A bail-out, however dressed up, is a humiliation. It is a judgment on the way the government has run the country.
There is a stigma to being rescued. The image of the Celtic Tiger has long disappeared but the Irish still cherish the memory. For some years they had the fastest-growing country in Europe. To be bailed out would wound Irish pride.

Then there are conditions. One of the reasons that Ireland did so well was inward investment - particularly from the US. Large multinational companies were attracted to Ireland by a corporate tax rate of 12.5%. Others in Europe - including the French and Germans - dislike the tax. They believe it gives Ireland an unfair advantage.
Many government officials in Ireland fear that one condition of a rescue would be to give up their low corporate tax rate. A few days ago, Ireland's Europe Minister, Dick Roche, bridled at the very suggestion. "We are in charge of our own taxes," he said. We shall see what the terms of any loan are.
European Commissioner for the Economy Olli Rehn (archive

Then there is the not-so-little matter of sovereignty. Already Irish commentators have focused on the EU Economics Commissioner, Ollie Rehn. When they were not reporting on his visit to an expensive restaurant, they asked: "Is he the most important man in Ireland?" Is this unelected official essentially running the country, was the tone of some of the comment.

There are stirrings of unease here at what Ireland may be giving away. When it was announced that a team of experts from the EU, the IMF and the ECB were coming to Dublin, the opposition leader referred to them as "officials arriving to dictate terms of a bail-out to the government".

Ireland for a long period was enthusiastically European. Many smart people headed to Brussels. They embraced the European identity as a way of distancing themselves from their neighbour Britain. They took great satisfaction in seeing Irish companies buying up big hotels in London.

So there is foreboding as to what a bail-out would signify. One Irish commentator wrote today: "Having obtained our political independence from Britain to be the masters of our own affairs, we have now surrendered our sovereignty to the European Commission."

Brian Lenihan has defended the increasing influence of the officials from Brussels with references to European solidarity. "We share our sovereignty with Europe in relation to currency," he said. "We pool our sovereignty in this area, so if you're pooling your sovereignty, you have to act with your partners in whatever steps you take." Yesterday he spoke of a "very supportive reaction from the wider European family".

What the Irish government is hoping for - if the Bank governor is right - is a narrow deal to restore the liquidity of its banks so they can borrow more easily. That would be less of a humiliation.


It should not be forgotten that when Irish voters were first given a say on what became the Lisbon Treaty they voted "No". Irish independence is both young and keenly felt.

So if the country is forced to accept a full bail-out, questions will be asked about the future. Will Ireland ever regain control over its budget and its economy?
And that is a question being asked not just on the streets of Dublin but in Athens, Lisbon and Madrid.

Ian Martin, writing in the Wall Street Journal observed: "A new model of government without direct accountability to voters is being constructed."
That, of course, is the long-term implication of this crisis. Presuming that the eurozone does not fracture, its flaws are being used to give the European Commission much greater powers of scrutiny and economic management. And this may go further. While everyone focuses on Ireland, Greece and Portugal, the gap between these economies and Germany only widens. The price of saving the euro may be that the stronger countries bail out the weaker - precisely what German voters were told would never happen.

The "ever closer union" that some dream of may be delivered on the back of a battered currency.

Life Style Sehat di Ajang Internasional

Job Indonesia - JAKARTA, KOMPAS.com - Hidup sehat sangat diidam-idamkan setiap orang, baik pria atau perempuan, tua atau muda, warga negara Indonesia ataupun warga negara di belahan dunia lainnya. Tak ada yang menginginkan sakit, sehat sekarang menjadi mode dan tren. Kampanye hidup sehat banyak disuarakan berbagai pihak. Berawal dari kampanye nasional, lantas ide ini menginspirasi Nutrifood untuk menyelenggarakan ajang Mister International 2010 di Jakarta setelah menyisihkan negara lainnya. - Indonesia Job

Lowongan Kerja - Menurut Christian Widi Nugraha, Brand Manager L-Men, penyelenggaraan Mister International bertujuan mengkampanyekan gaya hidup sehat bernutrisi. "Kami ingin memotivasi para pria Indonesia untuk lebih peduli terhadap kesehatan dan penampilan," kata Widi.


Bertemakan Transformation, L-Men ingin menginspirasi para pria Indonesia untuk melakukan perubahan dalam hidup menjadi lebih baik, terutama pola hidup sehat. Terbukti, ajang Mister International 2010 mendapat sambutan positif. Mereka pun datang ke Indonesia. Sekitar 40 peserta dari berbagai negara yang umumnya berprofesi sebagai model ini antusias berpartisipasi. Tahun ini merupakan tahun kelima ajang Mister International digelar oleh Mister Singapore Organization.

Bagi Widi, acara ini memiliki makna ganda. Pertama mengkampanyekan gaya hidup sehat ke dunia internasional. Kedua, memajukan pariwisata Indonesia. Selama pageant period, para peserta kemudian diajak mengunjungi berbagai obyek wisata di Jakarta, Bandung dan Bali. Di Jakarta mereka diantaranya mengunjungi Museum Gajah. Di Bandung, mereka diajak merasakan indahnya suara musik tradisional angklung Mang Udjo dan berlatih silat. Di Bali pun mereka dihibur oleh beragam tarian dan bertandang ke tempat-tempat wisata, seperti pantai Dreamland, Tanjung Benoa, arung jeram di Sungai Ayung, Bali Zoo, dan Bali Classic Center.

"Cuaca di Bali tak beda jauh dengan di Namibia," kata Barnabas Hangey Weyulu (27), peserta dari Namibia ketika asyik menikmati keindahan pemandangan di Bali Classic Center, Ubud, Minggu (14/11/2010).

Selama empat hari berada Bali, selain dipadati dengan berbagai pemotretan, agar tidak jenuh mereka banyak belajar soal hidup, kebudayaan dan masyarakat setempat. Saat memasuki Bali Classic Center di Ubud, Gianyar, mereka terkagum-kagum dengan tari selamat datang yang disuguhkan. Para peserta begitu antusias mendengarkan penjelasan soal kehidupan masyarakat Bali sehari-hari, bersatu dengan alam sekitar. Yang paling mereka sukai adalah berlatih tari kecak dan berbaur bersama seniman Bali lainnya.

Thomas Sebastian (25), peserta asal Indonesia sangat menikmati keindahan Pulau Dewata. Pria yang lahir di Bandung, 3 Januari 1985 ini mewakili Indonesia dalam ajang Mister International. Dengan tinggi 181 cm dan berat 74 kilogram, Thomas tentu menyandang beban berat karena sebagai tuan rumah, dia pasti diharapkan muncul sebagai pemenang.

Namun siapa sangka operasional manager di sebuah perusahaan tekstil ini dulunya memiliki bobot 98 kilogram. "Perlu kerja keras menurunkan berat badan seperti sekarang," ujarnya disela-sela sesi pemotretan di pantai Dreamland, Pecatu. Tak heran untuk menjaga kondisi tubuh agar tetap fit, penggemar musik dan biliar ini rutin ke gym 4 kali seminggu. "Selama 2 jam saya habiskan di gym," sambung Thomas.

Surfing

Namanya sesi pemotretan, sudah pasti diperlukan partisipasi, kedisiplinan, keseriusan para peserta. Untuk itu berkali-kali pengarah gaya berteriak-teriak melalui megapon agar seluruh peserta konsentrasi penuh saat pengambilan gambar di pantai Dreamland, Pecatu, dimana matahari sedang bersinar terik. Ternyata deburan ombak di pantai Dreamland tak mampu membuat Tim Boulenger (25), peserta dari Australia berkonsentrasi.

Tim yang berdiri di barisan belakang sering kali mengalihkan pandangannya ke arah ombak yang datang bergulung-gulung ke pantai Dreamland itu. Pengarah gaya pun tak kenal lelah berteriak-teriak agar Tim melihat kamera. Begitu sesi pemotretan selesai, Tim lah yang paling dulu bergegas meninggalkan lokasi. Dia mengambil papan berselancar dan langsung merasakan deburan ombak pantai Dreamland. Wajar Tim kebelet ingin berselancar atau surfing, pasalnya dia berprofesi sebagai instruktur berselancar di Australia.

Setelah puas menikmati alam Bali, mereka kembali ke Jakarta untuk bersiap-siap mengikuti pemilihan Mister International pada 20 November 2010. Lantas apa saja yang menjadi penilaian para dewan juri? Alan Sim, President Mister Singapore Organization mengatakan penilaian dititikberatkan kepada penampilan fisik, fotogenitas, kepribadian, karakter yang menarik dan kemampuan berkomunikasi. Nah, siapa pemenangnya, kita tunggu.

Jet Lag Bisa Bikin Bodoh !!!

Lowongan Kerja - Apakah Anda sering bepergian dan terbang melewati zona waktu yang berbeda, terus merasa sulit berpikir normal? Ataukah Anda merasa saudara atau teman yang baru balik dari luar negeri agak tidak nyambung kalau diajak ngobrol? Sebuah penelitian membuktikan, ternyata jet lag bisa menimbulkan efek tak bagus terhadap kecerdasan dan daya ingat. - Job Vacancy

Job Indonesia - Sebuah studi yang dipresentasikan di pertemuan tahunan Society for Neuroscience Senin lalu menemukan, hamster percobaan yang mengalami jet-lag yang ekstrim dan kronis ternyata memiliki kemampuan belajar yabng merosot dan memori yang rendah.

Tidak hanya terhadap kecerdasan, menurut Erin Gibson, peneliti dari Universitas California, Berkeley, jet-lag juga merupakan ancaman yang serius terhadap kesehatan. Studi ini menunjukkan bahwa orang yang jenis pekerjaannya mengharuskan dia kerap mengubah pola tidurnya memiliki potensi yang tinggi mengidap penyakit-penyakit kardiovaskular, diabetes dan kanker.

Gibson dan koleganya membuat jadwal tertentu buat hamster percobaan ini dengan cara memajukan jadwal siang dan malam buat hewan ini selama enam jam setiap tiga hari dalam periode hampir satu bulan. “Tak ubahnya naik penerbangan dari New York ke Paris setiap tiga hari,” ujarnya seperti dikutip Wired.com. Jumlah total tidur sang hamster sejatinya tidak berubah, tapi jam-jam bangun dan tidur betul-betul berubah.

Jadi kalau Anda sering-sering bepergian jauh naik pesawat, jangan lupa sering-sering baca buku supaya tetap pintar dan tidak pelupa (pikun)..

Ziarah ke Makam Private Harry Potter

Author: yahoo.com - Job Vacancy



Lowongan Kerja - Sebuah pemakaman di Israel kedatangan rombongan penggemar Harry Potter, yang datang untuk berziarah makam seorang yang juga bernama Harry Potter. - Job Indonesia

Prajurit Harry Potter dulunya adalah seorang tentara Kerajaan Inggris yang tewas di sebuah pertempuran pada 1939. Saat itu ia berumur 18 tahun, tapi di makamnya ditulis 19 tahun, sebab ia mengaku 1 tahun lebih tua saat mendaftar masuk ketentaraan.

Kata seorang pemandu wisata di kota Ramle, tak ada hubungan antara prajurit Harry Potter dengan tokoh karangan JK Rowling. “Tapi nama itu memang laku dijual,” ujarnya, seperti dilansir Yahoo! Movies UK & Ireland.

Ziarah para fans ke makam itu dimulai sejak lima tahun lalu, dan makam itu makin populer setelah dicantumkan di sebuah situs daring (online) pariwisata. “Kalau tak dibilang Harry Potter dimakamkan di sini, tak adalah yang bakal ke sini,” kata warga Tel Aviv, Josef Peretz.

Nah, begitu si lelaki itu pergi, Arumi mencoba untuk kabur diam-diam dan pergi ke KPAI," ujar ketua KPAI, Hadi Supeno saat dihubungi wartawan, Kamis (18/11) malam.

Sampai saat ini, Arumi pun berada di bawah lindungan KPAI. Hadi mengakui jika Arumi berada di tempat yang dirahasiakannya. Ini untuk mencegah agar kasus ini tidak melebar dan semakin ruwet.
