liamokempes (Liam Kemp) — Tue, 3 Mar 2020 12:15:00 -0800

A year ago I came across Yougov at first I did not really know if it was for me.

I have to say I enjoy two things :
1. I have a chance to influence things in this country by filling in my views in the surveys.
2. I have the chance to win up to potentially a £1000.

YouGov plc is a professional research and consulting organisation, pioneering the use of the Internet and information technology. It is not funded, run by, or affiliated to the Government or any Government agencies. As a research agency, we are commissioned by a wide range of clients from media, to academics, to companies, to not-for-profit organisations. YouGov therefore aims to provide accurate and high quality research to all our clients, allowing YouGov panel members the chance to voice their opinions on a wide range of topics.

Some of our research is commissioned specially for publication. This is often the case with our media clients and you may see the results of our surveys in newspapers and on television. Published results can be viewed in our published results archive. In other cases, research is used internally by a client for example, in order to inform a marketing or policy decision.

Once you have joined YouGov as a panel member you will be sent survey invitations to your email address. The invitation email will contain a link that will take you directly into the survey. Once in the survey, you will be informed of the amount you will be credited for the survey, usually ranging between 50p and £1, the subject of the survey and also an estimation of how long the survey will take to complete.

You may also be invited to participate in Prize Draw surveys in which one winner will be given a cash prize.

Once you have completed the survey you will automatically be credited within 24 hours and the amount will show up under the "Completed Surveys" tab in the "My Account" section in your YouGov account.

Tinchey Leads Campaign For Kids To Save Money

liamokempes (Liam Kemp) — Sat, 6 Mar 2010 08:00:00 -0800

British rapper TINCHY STRYDER turned teacher at a school in London on Thursday (04Mar10) in a bid to promote money management amongst U.K. teenagers.

The Number 1 hitmaker has become the spokesperson for the new educational campaign My Money, aimed at teaching youngsters how handle their cash.
And Stryder headed into a classroom at St Matthew Academy in the British capital to teach pupils an important lesson in finances.
He says, “I believe, whatever age you are - even kids with piggy banks - as long as you are aware of money you should understand how saving money is really important in life.
“If you’ve got something saved, as you get older saving can turn into investment.”

If your computer already has a basic Windows or Linux system pre-installed, you don't have to splash out a further £119.99 for the basic Microsoft Office 2007 Home and Student edition – or even £449.99 for the professional edition. Indeed, many computer specialists claim the free OpenOffice software suite is far superior.

OpenOffice is a free office application suite available for a number of different computer operating systems.
The package is designed as a single piece of software comprising five powerful applications: Writer, its word processing software: Calc, its spreadsheet creator: Impress for creating multi-media presentations: Draw for creating simple graphics: and Base which allows you to create and maintain databases.

Draw is a great free equivalent to micrisoft Visio , it is not as good as Visio but it is free and you can do process flow diagrams on it .Visio can be around £300 think of the money you are saving

Save Energy In Your Home = Saving Money In Your Pocket

liamokempes (Liam Kemp) — Sun, 7 Feb 2010 07:39:00 -0800

Saving Money At Home:

1.
Step 1: Draught Proof Your House

In an average house up to 20 percent of heat is lost through draughts*. To test an area simply hold the palm of your hand up against a door or window - if you feel cold air coming through, warm air is escaping. This is simple to fix and can save you hundreds on your yearly heating bill.

Fit draught excluders around all exterior doors and interior if need. Fill in any cracks or crevices on window frames, skirting boards or floors with a filler or sealant.

Closing curtains or shutters after dark fall also traps in the warm air and prevents draughts.
2.
Step 2: Turn down the thermostat

Turning your thermostat down by just 1 degree can reduce your energy consumption by over 5 percent*. You won't even notice the difference in room temperature

On the same note, don't heat rooms when you are not using them.
3.
Step 3: Hot water temperature

Your hot water thermostat needn't be higher than 60 degrees centigrade, that's 140 degrees Fahrenheit. Any higher and you will only be mixing it with cold water to cool it back down for use.

Haiti Disaster Please Give Your Support

liamokempes (Liam Kemp) — Sat, 16 Jan 2010 00:45:00 -0800

(Photo from Unicef site)

We have all been touched by the devastation caused by the earthquake in Haiti, at the moment 3 Million people are without electricity food and water it is a disaster on an unprecented scale please please help if you can.There are various ways of contributing my belief is that donating to Unicef is an excellent way to do your bit to help the children left homeless and parentless.

"Under 18s make up almost half of Haiti's 10-million population and aid agencies are warning they are at great risk from ongoing physical and psychological trauma.
Already the country faces the highest rates of infant and child mortality in the Western hemisphere with diarrhoea, respiratory infections, tuberculosis among the leading causes of death."(From BBC)

"The earthquake measuring 7.0 on the Richter scale in Haiti causing an unfolding humanitarian crisis. Children have been killed and injured — many are in desperate need of clean water, shelter and medical help. Early reports indicate a large number of casualties and widespread damage.
The situation for Haiti was already difficult before the earthquake hit the island. Haiti is the one of the poorest countries in the world and is struggling to recover from years of violence, insecurity and massive natural disasters. More than half of the country's 9.6 million inhabitants are under 21 years of age.
All children have rights — these are most at risk of being denied in emergencies. UNICEF is working to ensure that the rights of children affected in Haiti are not forgotten."

Save £400 On The Price Of A New Boiler

liamokempes (Liam Kemp) — Thu, 7 Jan 2010 01:33:00 -0800

"The Chancellor, Alistair Darling recently announced the Government's latest initiative to lower energy use in the UK - the boiler scrappage scheme. Within the new boiler scrappage scheme, the Government will give you £400 towards the cost of a new efficient boiler when you trade in an old G-rated boiler."

Similar to the the car scrappage scheme, this will help households replace costly, inefficient boilers with a grant of £400 to contribute to the replacement costs.
In addition homeowners will save up to aprox £310 a year in fuel bills by replacing a less efficient boiler,
Glowworm has a helpful boiler calculator feature on its site .
People who own their homes and landords who rent homes are eligible. However, social landlords, housing associations and boiler installers are not eligible under this scheme.
The average cost of buying and installing a new boiler according to electric.co.uk is £2500.

It's a central heating calculator, a hot water calculator and a great way to find exactly what you need. Using a domestic heating calculator like this is a good starting point if you don't know too much about boilers.
