Looking For Well-Paid Freelance Academic Writing Jobs
Freelance academic writing seems to be a great opportunity for those people who have no desire to work in offices a boss. Being a freelancer means being your own boss with the freedom to decide what you want to do and what you would rather turn down. Freelance academic writing is really one of the most favorable options for self-employment, but if you want to find a well-paid job, you need to remember several major points.
- Think like an average customer.
- Demonstrate your samples correctly.
- Search for orders.
- Remember about your goals.
Imagine that you are a customer who has to choose one among numerous available freelance writers who are ready to complete practically any request. Which factors would you consider, when evaluating these writers? In most cases, customers choose writers who look the most professional, have the best samples of work and set the lowest prices. Keep these factors in mind when building up your reputation and image.
If you are into working as an individual writer, you definitely need to provide several samples of your works to let customers evaluate the quality of your writing. Since academic papers are very meaningful for your customers, you need to understand that they tend to be very picky when hiring a freelance writer. So, you need to build up a worthwhile portfolio at a special website where all texts go through manual moderation with relevant evaluation of their quality. Showing your best sides as a professional will help you earn more as an individual writer.
If you don't mind working on a team, you can offer your services to resources that work as teams of professional academic writers. Your previously created portfolio will be a valuable factor that can influence their desire to hire you. Of course, working for such a team means higher incomes, more requests from customers and a wider field for self-perfection in the area of academic writing.
Continuing to think as a customer, you will understand that your main goal is not simply to write a certain text. You are here to help a person, to achieve a particular goal with the help of a text. That's why you should be ready to keep on learning and improving your writing skills, to catch up with all the newest tendencies and styles of academic writing, etc. The more you focus on self-perfection, the better the quality of your work will be, and the more money you will receive for your texts.

Reading it made me glad that I don't work as an agent, that's a lot of queries! Read the full article here: Anatomy of a Query Letter.

SPRINGFIELD, Mo. -- Officials in northern Missouri say an 11-year old boy possibly died from the flu.
"That very cold weather seems to have brought everybody inside it's a perfect mode for the flu to spread from person to person," said Family nurse practitioner Anthony Inmon from the Family Medical Walk-in Clinic.
He says while the cold doesn't give you the flu it makes your immune system more susceptible to catching it. Inmon says the young, the elderly and especially those with respiratory issues such as asthma and COPD are more at risk for having pneumonia or other serious complications from the flu.
The flu is spread through contact with other sick people. The flu can also live on the surface of objects for up to two hours. After contact, it can take up to 48 hours to feel symptoms. And if you are feeling ill, doctors recommend you pay them a visit.
Inmon says the sooner you get on the medication, Tamiflu or Xofluza,
the more effective the medication is at helping you.
Doctors say the best way to prevent the flu is to get a flu shot because you build up immunity to the flu virus itself. Immon recommends using bleach on what you can to disinfect areas, keep children home from school when they feel ill and to isolate those who are sick from the rest of the household.

Behold! The brand spanking new free music template is here! Like the name of the website template - 'Orange Music'. Our free music templates are a great choice for setting up music Ð?±nternet site or a website for music band. Our team of editors invest some time and efforts to choose the free templates by hand and make sure that they are of superior quality. Oh well, now tell me - why bother? Free means very poor quality, doesn't it? Are free band templates worth anything? That's not me boasting, however, really, most of our free web templates are not only attractive but also standards compliant, i.e. valid HTML/CSS. Is it possible to imagine an experienced professional designing some low quality stuff? If you can, pity on you. As for me, I've never witnessed a web designer ready to destroy his / her name by spitting out lousy designs. Not all of the free website templates available on the webmaster websites and webmaster message boards are of good quality, but a lot of them are pretty decent and many are virtually as good as as premium or even better. That without a doubt is determined by who designed the template. Be it a beginner you will probably find it not that much of a value but there are plenty of qualified designers who design free templates as their own hobby projects or simply because of sheer humanism and desire to help make the world a better place. Creating a website template is not an easy task - it's not than any schoolboy who has discovered Photoshop can put on filters can create a web template by cutting and pasting elements of his treasured MySpace pages. Professional designers have put in quite a few years studying and practicing, understanding the design theory and particular applications of design theory for website creating. At present free website templates are usually not only identical when it comes to quality but can actually be better than some older premium web templates. We hope that our free music template is exactly what you were seeking for your music website.

it's not fair it's not fair it's not fair
I've had a lot of time and opportunity lately to think about how unfair it is that we had to lose not just one, but two babies. I sit and wonder what I've done wrong in this life to deserve such pain, and honestly, I can't really think of anything. I've made just as many mistakes as the next person, but nothing so wrong to deserve this.
I think about all the crappy people in the world who don't deserve children. Parents that abuse their children. Neglect them. Lock them in closets or car trunks. Parents that sell their children for things no person should be sold for. Parents that yell at their children on a daily basis, that use cruel, obscene words at home or in public, and make their child feel like less than they are. There are also good people that simply don't have the means to provide for their children, no matter how much they wish they could. But I wouldn't abuse our children, and we have the means to provide, so why us? How the hell is this fair?
It's so nice to get messages or emails from people saying how much I have helped them, even if they haven't lost a baby. I'm glad I'm able to do something with this loss, but honestly, I would much rather have my babies than help anyone. And I understand that's a bit selfish, but I also know that any other parent in my situation would say the same thing.
Here's the thing. Every mother I've met that has lost a baby deserves to be a mother. They are not the kind of person you look at and wonder if they've ever been around children in their life. You can feel their motherly love resonating from their body. You can tell by the way they care for their husband or siblings or friends or absolute strangers that they are meant to be a mother. And it's so, so, so unfair that they had that ripped away from them. Some of us more than once, and for some people, more than one baby at a time.
Growing up, our parents always tell us that life isn't fair, and that we should probably get used to it. The funny thing about that now is that we have watched our parents struggle with how unfair this is too. I think their definition of unfair was "sometimes you won't get the promotion" or "sometimes people are jerks." They never think unfair would be that sometimes you lose a baby. Or that sometimes you lose two.
I understand that this is not the worst thing that could ever happen in the world. I have lived a very privileged life, and I do realize that there could be worse things. But it's really really hard living in a state/stage of life where basically 70% of the female population is pregnant at any given time. I don't look at pregnant women and instantly hate them. Seeing their cute pregnant tummies make me miss mine. I would love to be pregnant all the time. And I don't hate women who tote around their newborns. It doesn't even bother me to be by babies anymore, and only rarely does it hurt when I hear one cry.
It sucks to talk to people and know that they have no idea who I really am. I'm not this innocent little girl anymore. I am a mom who's heart has been ripped out and shoved back and ripped out again. People look at me and they would never know I've had a baby. Two babies. With one, I was full term and full-pregnant huge, but you'd never know. They don't know about the stretch mark on my stomach that has faded too much for my liking. They'd never know that I have delivered a baby. Nobody would know any of this, because there's not a seven month old in the backseat of my car, or in his crib, or in the cart at the the store. And there's not a baby in my belly. I don't get to wander through the baby clothes or toys and buy things for either of them. I don't get to buy baby food. I don't get to buy diapers. I don't get to do any of that.
Instead, we get to buy flowers and take them to the cemetery.
I'm happy to have my babies as much as I do. But I would trade everything in the entire universe to have them just a little bit more.
Someone commented on one of my pictures the other day and told me how disgusted they were that I would share pictures of myself and Brandon in the cemetery. I told her that when this is all we have, it makes sense, and she fired back with some garbage about how intimate moments shouldn't be used for likes or comments, which is definitely not the reason I do what I do. I don't blog to get pity, or likes, or even to help people; I do it because it helps me, and sometimes I feel like it's easier to share my emotions with family and friends this way rather than through direct conversation. Her comments didn't upset me, because honestly she's no one to me (we don't even live in the same country. I thought Candadians were supposed to be nice?!), but I was still annoyed by it. Every other day this week, I've received messages from people letting me know how my blog has helped them, or that they think of Carter often, and those messages make the comments from crappy people disappear.
But it still makes me mad that people, like the two negative Nancy's I've dealt with and the tons of other garbage people who have rude things to say, feel like it's wrong for still parents to share anything, just because our baby isn't alive. I doubt that anyone would ever have commented on a picture of a mother and their live child and said how disgusted they are that the parent would share an intimate moment on social media. Just because our babies aren't alive doesn't mean that we don't love and care for them the same amount we would if they were alive. We're just forced to do it a bit differently.
It all just makes me mad. Makes me mad that we had to lose our babies, makes me mad that people don't understand, and makes me mad that I have to (somewhat) force the idea of my baby onto the world. It's not fair that it all feels fake. It's not fair that I don't have my babies.
I feel like I should apologize for writing this post, because it's super raw and negative. But these are my feelings, and if any of you (like the canadian) can't respect that this is my life, then you don't have to read these posts. Trust me, I'd rather be giving updates on my almost 8 month old, or sharing the bumpdates for little bean without the tinge of sadness, but it is what it is. We're here, we're sad, and we struggle to get through each day, but we do what we can and we keep moving forward.
**but honestly, the cover picture shows how loved and spoiled our babies are. thank you to everyone that visits them!

For your convenience, our most common questions are answered right here.
Not finding what you want? Reach out directly through our Contact Us page.
Q: Do I need prior experience to help out?
A: No! All you need is the desire to work on the publication. We will hold Training Meetings and Production Week in which you will learn everything that you need to. The editors in each category (Content, Copy, Layout) don't bite! They're always there to guide you and assist if you need help.
Q: Are there any criteria for article submissions?
A: Articles must be related to science, and range from 300 to 800 words. If the word count poses a problem, email us at firstname.lastname@example.com and we will work it out.
Q: Is there a selection process for which articles are featured in the magazine?
A: The selection process depends primarily on the number of submissions that we receive and the space that there is the in magazine. When we are planning layout, we figure out how many articles can fit in the magazine with sufficient spacing. We also do try to create a diverse set of writers from all classes to make sure the student body is well represented. In addition, we seek to vary the content of each issue so that many different aspects of the sciences are covered. We will always notify writers if their articles are or are not chosen to be published.
Q: What is Production Week?
A: Production Weeks occur 6 weeks in the year, two back-to-back weeks for each of the 3 issues. The first week of a Production Week is devoted to Copy & Content Editing, the second week to Layout Editing.
During these, all editors and associates will work after school in Computer Lab 016 on the magazine. Attendance at Production Weeks will be taken, and credit will only be given to those who have contributed enough to the overall product.
Q: How does being on the board work?
A: Being on the board is a fun and exciting experience! Ask any officer, and they'll tell you!
It is definitely a role with both responsibility and leadership opportunities. Officers attend monthly board meetings, in which we discuss the logistics of the publication and plan events such as the Annual Pi Day Fundraiser. Officers also are in charge of directing associates during Production Weeks. In addition to the various commitments in school (such as attending meetings and leading production crews) officers also have various duties outside of school (such as creating and updating Publication Guides). Also, while each officer has specific responsibilities, there is a lot of opportunity to take initiative beyond one's designated duties.
Q: How can I become a member of the board?
A: Applications to be a part of the board are given out at the conclusion of the Spring Issue. Applicants will be given 2 weeks to complete the application. After all applications are received, the Editor(s)-in-Chief will conduct interviews with each candidate. Candidates will be notified of decisions the following week.
Dedication is a major criterion used when we decide the editors. A publication, of course, is a collective effort in which many must work together to complete. We take attendance seriously when considering applicants.

A gritty first fixture kick starts our U9s rugby season.
On Wednesday, the Under 9s Rugby Team played their first fixture of the season against an experienced Birchfield Team. Despite many of our boys being new to contact rugby, we nonetheless put up stern resistance throughout a match in which we tackled with gusto and crossed the opposition try line on several occasions. Although Yarlet ultimately narrowly failed to secure a victory, an overall performance characterised by grit and determination bodes well for our forthcoming tournament at Birchfield on 11th February. Henry Pickering (Captain), Max Whittingham and Rohan Sheldon deserve special mention for their efforts. More of the same please, gents!

Linlithgow and East Falkirk MP Martyn Day launched a Grangemouth pub's initiative to capture the greatest moments from the local community last Saturday (16th July).
The Earl of Zetland, has been proving its commitment to developing as an asset for locals ever since Hawthorn Leisure took over in April. Twenty-six jobs were saved with the acquisition and the company has continued to invest in its future.
In a nod to community, the pub has now dedicated an area for images of precious moments from Grangemouth's people's lives. The idea was the brainchild of manager Shelley Davis whose inspiration came from customers' nostalgic memories of times when the Earl of Zetland was a church.
Mr Day, a member of the All Parliamentary Beer Group, was the first to 'hook up' a photograph. A supporter of community pubs, he said: "Aside from the obvious pleasures pubs bring, they are a huge contributor to both the local economy and society so it was a privilege for me to get involved in supporting this initiative."
Shelley, who also managed the pub when it belonged to Wetherspoon, added: "It's great to now be able to have individuality and adapt to customer demand. We've continued to tweak our offer, redecorated, installed a music system to add to the atmosphere and employed more kitchen staff.
"We've added eight Scottish dishes to the menu including Scotch Pie; Haggis Tatties and Neeps; and Highland Burger. Scottish liqueurs including Caorun and White and Mackay are the perfect compliment to beers from local breweries.
"Our promotions change regularly – buy one get a second meal for £1 on Thursday Curries and Sunday lunch; and free coffee with breakfast our latest offers. It's now about making the Earl central to local lives, of which the photographs are just the start."
Already, the pub has announced its intention to support a local charity this year and is spending time with local councilor David Balfour to visit worthy causes before putting the decision in locals' hands. Meanwhile the pub's community board is proving to be a popular resource for local groups.

The nervous system, together with the endocrine system, coordinates all activities of the organ systems to maintain homeostasis (keeping the body healthy and into balance). With yoga we directly influence our nervous system by doing asanas, pranayama and meditation.
The nervous system reacts quickly on signals from outside the body, but these reactions don't last very long. For instance: you put your hand on top of a burning stove. The receptors in your hand sent a signal to your brain telling that you are burning your hand. Your brain sent a signal to the muscles of the hand and arm. As a reaction you will withdraw your hand. All of this in a split of a second.
The endocrine system reacts slower, but these reactions take place over a longer period of time. For instance: you reach the age of puberty. Time to grow hair on your face. Your body starts to produce hormones that will stimulate hair growth.
Anatomically the nervous system can be divided in our central nervous system (CNS) and our peripheral nervous system. (PNS). Our CNS contains our brain and spinal cord. It coordinates all sensory information and gives impulses to our muscles. It also covers the 'higher functions', like intelligence, memory and emotions.
All communication between our CNS and the rest of our body runs through our peripheral nervous system (PNS). This includes all nervous tissue outside our CNS. Our spinal cord is the most important route to transfer information from the rest of our body to our brain and from our brain to the rest of our body. Our spinal cord can even handle and react on impulses without sending information to the brain.
All information (heat, pain etc) is collected by sensors of the PNS, sent through communication lines of our PNS to our CNS. Our CNS processes the information and sent and action (impulse) back.
We can divide our PNS into two parts:
Somatic nervous system and autonomic nervous system.
- We can control our Somatic nervous system. This is the system that coordinates the movement of our skeletal muscles.
- Our autonomic nervous system 'does its own job'. It controls blood pressure, heart and breathing rates, body temperature, digestion, metabolism (thus affecting body weight), the balance of water and electrolytes (such as sodium and calcium), the production of body fluids (saliva, sweat, and tears), urination, defecation, sexual response, and other processes.
This autonomic nervous system can again be divided in two systems:
sympathetic nervous system and Parasympathetic nervous system
- The sympathetic nervous system is also called our 'fight of flight system'. It prepares the body for stressful or emergency situations; fight or flight. Thus, it increases heart rate and the force of heart contractions and widens (dilates) the airways to make breathing easier. It causes the body to release stored energy. Muscular strength is increased. This division also causes palms to sweat, pupils to dilate, and hair to stand on end. It slows body processes that are less important in emergencies, such as digestion and urination.
- The parasympathetic system controls body processes during ordinary situations. Generally, it conserves and restores. It slows the heart rate and decreases blood pressure. It stimulates the digestive tract to process food and eliminate wastes. Energy from the processed food is used to restore and build tissues.
Our parasympathetic system has to be 'active' for about ten hours a day to prevent our body from depleting it selves of its energy. We sleep for 7 to 8 hours, so we still have to be 'switched off' for two more hours. When we watch television, surf on the internet or play with our phone, we think we are resting, but for our nervous system we don't. We are still alert. We are still in a fight or flight reaction, trying to cope with all incoming impulses. So we end up wearing ourselves out, bringing us close to a burn-out.
Yoga (and walking in nature) are stimulating our parasympathetic nervous system. Switching our body 'off' and giving it the rest it needs to recover.
