Should I Send My Written Acceptance Letter Now?


On Wednesday, I received a job offer from a law firm that practices exactly the niche area of law I’m interested in so I was very excited about the offer – they wanted me to start next week. I called them back today to discuss the details of the offer and to accept the offer. I was informed that they would like to move the start date back a few weeks to late-January/early-February but they didn’t have an exact date at this time. I accepted the offer under those terms and asked that they send me written confirmation of everything we discussed with the precise start date. Should I wait until I receive their letter prior to sending my letter/email essentially providing written confirmation of my acceptance of the offer?

Anyone Remember This 90s Radio Programme?


It was on Radio one around ten pm in the mid 90s, presented by Greg Proops, it was a series of sketches supposed to be from niche radio stations around the world. I remember one being a station for tourists in New York aiming to dispell the myth that you were likly to be gunned down at the drop of a hat, yet being nothing but cheery reports that ‘a bunch of tourists were masacred today at (some popular tourist destination)’.
Another one i remember was a station from an incredibly posh public school, where all the students were talking street, remarking how one female teacher taught modern languages ‘like b*tches should’, and talking about ‘cricket man, dudes in white’.
anyone remember?

During an interview with CBS Minnesota affiliate WCCO on Tuesday, Obama was asked if Americans were better off than they were four years ago.
“Well, you know, I think we are better off now than we would have been if I hadn’t taken all the steps that we took,” the president replied.

Affiliate Marketing Today?


Is it still possible to make a living with Affiliate Marketing today? I know it’s a lot different before because competition wasn’t that tight but now every niche seems to be saturated. Also, with the recent Google changes, ezinearticles and squidoo don’t rank as well anymore. Any expert advice you can offer me? Please don’t answer if you just intend to promote your training.

How Can I Not Get Ripped Off?


So I’m considering selling some of my old silver scrap lying around for a bit of extra cash, but I don’t want to get ripped off or gouged. I know anyone who buys precious metals go by the market spot price on any given metal so I checked the spot price on silver when the market closed today and it was going for $30.40 per ounce. I know that metal weights are different in that they use troy ounces (31.1 grams) and I did the math and sterling silver is going for $0.98 cents per gram. So I decided to weigh my silver… turns out I have 981.6 grams of sterling silver which adds up to 31.56 troy ounces, which with a little math applied means it’s worth, based on the spot price which I know can change hourly, about $961.95. That’s a nice chunk of change. So now my actual and very important question: how much or what percentage or what cut (however you want to phrase it) do the buyers usually take? It seems to be a closely guarded secret and varies significantly from place to place. I know that the buyer has to pay for the refining if the metal has any extra allowing, like solder, but trying to offer me $40.00 for 6.07 troy ounces of silver (about $185.00) worth of refined sterling silver a few months ago when the spot price was roughly the same seems like an outright blasphemous rip off of more than 50% of it’s worth. I forgot to mention that I’m a jeweler so you can bet I didn’t sell my silver for $40 bucks. Scandalous. What’s the decent industry standard deduction for selling precious metals? Thanks in advance!
