Hello,
my name is Rick Stevenson and I am Bolt Finance hiring manager. We have found and carefully reviewed your CV and decided to offer this job to you.

Our services
When buying-selling operations via the Internet are concerned, the buyer and the seller don’t know each other (they may be placed in different corners of the world) – it is very important both to the buyer and the seller for their deal to be made safe. Payment Protection means receiving money, documents, goods (it might be both the seller’s and the buyer’s) concerning the transaction to a reliable, experienced, impartial person – our Payment Protection agent. The agent will hold all the documents and money until all the terms of the deal are satisfied and only then release them to the intended receiver.

Why we need Payment Protection agents
Having a Payment Protection agent in every country we can quickly transfer funds inside a country without wasting time on the international bank transfers, and continue our rapid growth rather than overwhelming our own bank account with inbound and outbound transactions leading to severe hold times and possible service interruption. It is time that is of significant importance to our clients.

Career and Benefits
Your main task will be receiving money transactions to any bank account you would like to use for the purposes of this job; and then forwarding these transactions to the next party of the Payment Protection process according to our instructions. You will benefit from the commissions, which are 5-7% of each transaction and depend on the quantity of the completed transactions and the speed of your work. Besides, you will be paid a basic salary of 1500 GBP per month.

For your convenience there will be no paychecks, your commission will remain in your account after every successfully completed transaction. The money transfer fee is not included in your commission, meaning that you will deduct it from the received amount, not from your commission. Also you receive 5-7% of the transaction amount. Normally the amounts that we process vary from 2,000 GBP to 10,000 GBP, but can go higher on special occasions.

Job details
As the financial activity in your area is not too high, a Payment Protection agent will be processing approximately 1-2 transactions per week. Each transaction requires approximately 4-5 hours of the agent work. Our manager always calls the agent beforehand to provide all the instructions. Therefore, with the due time management, the agent is able to combine this job with other activities (e.g. primary job or studies).

If you are ready to proceed, please reply to this e-mail and our hiring manager (Jonathan Ford) will contact you shortly.

Please do not hesitate to contact us if you need more information.

holler if u wanna make an offer :)

Now waiting for James so we can have lunch, but in the mean time I have uploaded a video of me at the top of one of the mountains. It was pretty scary.

Having a sleepless night and travelling makes me really REALLY ratty, sigh, Im still tired now 24 hours later.

Anyway, the flight was with Monarch, I was shocked and appalled that there was no plane meal with this trip, but being both hungry and expectant we ordered a bacon panini each and shared a oats in a pot.

Arrival was quite smooth, easy security, no laughs at my sick phili passport photo. On arrival I found our rep and proceeded to ‘reserve’ a place at the front of the coach (being at the back up a 3 hour long winedy road can be pretty hellish) first on, first off was we :)

On arrival to Champs Avalins based in the Le Daille hamlet at the beginning of the Val d’isère ski area we checked in and helped our selves to ‘afternoon tea’. Afternoon tea is part of the ski week thing, at the end of the ski day most chalets usually arrange for a home made cake and a hot drink to welcome you home from a day on or off the piste. Its quite a good one here, altho the cake was a bit on the under cocoa’d side, included in their spread was but not limited too: tea, coffee, bread, honey, milk, cake, cheese and ham toasted bread, assortment of coloured squashes (including a red one im particularly fond of)

Because of the size of this chalet there are two dinner sittings, this is because its a hotel chalet, not the 8 person intimate thing im used to. Prior to beginning dinner we went to the bar downstairs for aperitifs and canapes, we couldn’t find them and didn’t much like it down there, a bit too pub for our liking. But anyway we had dinner on the first sitting at 6. Having seated our selves on a table with a group friends on, before we knew it we were guzzling some nice white wine and chatting away to a wine buyer from…. i want to say scotland, but maybe its wiltshire, anyway doesn’t really matter. a couple of hours later and we were hurried off out of the dining area so they could begin the second setting. Laden now with wine and a selection of cheeses we made it up to bed and watched our new favourite pre bedtime viewing of Malcolm in the middle.

Day 1
well, almost, day 1a, seems a shame to say day 2 when that was a travelling day.

Today after a long and sleep deprived night (half helped by some numpty who didn’t have his room key) we hurried down to breakfast, gobbled it up, passed on the hot option of (makes me want to wretch atm actually) eggy bread and baked beans(almost have a phobia of those) and went to get ready. James hurried off to catch his off piste lessons and I was taken by a rep to my ski school :) after describing my self as an advanced beginner who is happy on reds and blacks I was placed in what I believed to be a upper-intermediate class, I suppose it is :)

4 people in our group, its a nice good number, three guys including me all british and a french woman, Antony, Gavin and Fabien. Oh and the instructor Christophe. Our morning lesson flew by and I think I actually learnt some good technique and skills to practice, a miracle :) We went down some reds, some blacks and the womans world cup down hill run from last years tournament. By the end of the week, we should have done some more blacks, more practice and hopefully some tuition on how to handle moguls better. (personally tho, when I’m not tired i think i handle them and enjoy them ok as it is)

In the afternoon, James has arranged to meet me at the top of the Funval Funicular Railway, he was going to make me wait a while so I did some travelling around the area on my own, practicing my facing down the piste and hip movements. An hour and a half later, some 8 times on a particular lift we met up and came back for a lovely lunch at the bottom of Le Daille. I had steak hache et frites (burger and chips) while James had a beautiful tasting Lasagne, served by a quite friendly lady, not the stuck up types you often get.

The afternoon was quite long, as ever with James I think we both push our selves. I out performed him this once :) seemingly the last time I skiied and my lessons have made a huge impact in my performance, and I think the hours at the gym in the last 3 weeks working on my legs has helped an awful lot.

Unfortunately James wasn’t really a challenging ski buddy this afternoon, having chosen some particularly off piste suited skis with some rickety bindings his afternoon didn’t go well at all, a couple of times his ski just fell off, scary!. The worst time this happened we were on a pretty hefty mogul field, luckily I sent him ahead so I could watch it all unfold. Minutes after we began James’s ski came off and he slid down the bumps on his face, it was quite horrible to watch but he seemed to have only damaged his ego and wet his face with melted snow. Being the gentleman that I am, and with my new found talent I picked his ski up and whizzed down to pass it to him (note, I was skiing holding a ski, down some particularly taxing slope).

Now were both back at our room, overheating and bathing. Despite hurrying back for Tea today we missed it, so snuck cake into our room.

This is probably boring to read, but consider this entry just an online diary for me he he, that u may or may not have just read in its entirety

Shortly we will be going to the second serving of dinner,

crap, my keyboard stopped working before and it didn’t save my missed out bits

Blue skies like today,
Make things seem, ok.

Up and down is how it’s been.
Full time work is still a dream.
It’s been so long since I was there,
Some time soon I’ll not care.

I’ll have a job, I’ll join a team.
My life of travel will be the dream.
Until then I should enjoy my break.
In a week, a trip I’ll take.

On the piste is where I’ll be,
Where I learnt to plough and ski.
Speeding through a snowy scene.
Alpine trees and black run ‘wheeeeees’.

Hope the food and chalets good.
It could be dire, that’s understood.
Trip advisor says it’s iffy.
A bath is good, s’long it ain’t nippy!

Val d sere in two weeks!!!
Now almost one because I didn’t post this.  

In an ideal world I would have heaps of cash that I was willing to spend on a real life Apple Mac, but I dont and cannot justify it anyway when I can build my own perfectly good Mac.

(it lies but its nice)

From the day I  heard about PearPC (PPC software emulator), enabling Panther (OS X) to be run in a virtual machine on a normal PC, I have been interested. This has led to some rather costly and well planned purchases, like moving from an AMD platform to INTEL so my computer would be more compatible, and buying very specific graphics hardware.

Now much of the guess work and trial and error can be avoided by ‘following the crowd’ and learning from others mistakes, there is a huge community out there of forums and blogs for people who are devoted to making their pcs act and run like a mac.

If you know what to google, there is a wealth of information out there for the taking.

http://wiki.osx86project.org/wiki/index.php/HCL_10.6.0 – A good place to start shopping for hardware.

Despite there being instructions of exactly what other people did to get their hackintosh’s working, sometimes it jsut doesnt work for you, its a bit of a mine field, as theres so many things to take into consideration, like firmware versions, combinations of hardware, type of installation etc.

A costly mistake I made last week, an example of differing hardware versions making problems. Was my first major issue. After staying in to receive my parcel containing my new motherboard, ram and cpu. I thought I was in for an easy ride, until I hit up the forums to discover I needed to upgrade my BIOS to a custom version in order to enjoy the mac goodness, hours later and after some dodgy boot usb action I had corrupted my firmware. GREAT!

The next day, I sourced an ASRock P45DE. My previous setup was based on a ASRock dual-vsta775 which worked OK so I was hoping for similar success. The Hardware compatibility lists on the OSX86 Projects Wiki seems to indicate it would be easy.

There are various methods of installing OSX, Boot CDs, Hacked DVD images, DMGs restored to USB.

According to the HCL I could use a Chinese software called BootThink, and all would run swimmingly. It didnt, so I tried numerous different versions which I found online. iDeneb , SnOSX, boot-132…. the list goes on a little.

But anyway, the real reason I am putting this up, is to say that I found the EMPIRE EFI cd to work, this wasnt without its problems, but they were due to my hardware. During the installation of Snow Leopard using the EMPIRE EFI CD you need to swap disks at the beginning and place in a Real Retail Snow Leopard Disk. The problem was that the installer couldnt see my drive at all. To cut a long story short, I hacked open my housemates computer while he was out (im sure he wouldnt mind) and took his SATA DVD drive, this did the trick, the installer could see the drive and there fore begin the SL installation.

About half an hour later it booted into Snow Leopard, everything was big, and all quiet. But after installing a few ‘kexts’ (mac os drivers) all was running fine. (see www.kexts.com for kext helper)

My New Kit:

Intel Core 2 Quad Q8300 2.5GHz

ASUS P5QL-VM EPU iG43 (but I overwrote the BIOS with a dodgy custom firmware so thats now bricked (NEW chip on order from america for that)

Crucial 4GB Kit (2×2GB) DDR2 800MHz/PC2-6400

ASRock P45DE

To be added to my old bits:

Silentium T2 (slightly underpowered but seems to be holding up)

ATI Saphire x1950 Pro (ver 7280)

2 x ATA 500GB HDDs

1x IDE DVD-RW DL

erm, im bored now and forget the reason for writing this.. ho hum

ASRock P45DE + EMPIRE EFI + Retail SL DVD = SWEET

AMAZING HD TOO!

beautiful songs
