Ingredients

Hamburger Pattie

800g - 1kg / 1.6 - 2 lb ground beef (mince), 20%+ fat (Note 1)

Salt and peppe
3 onions, peeled and sliced into rings
2 tbsp oil
4 - 8 slices cheese of choice, I use Swiss (optional)

Hamburger

4 soft hamburger buns, lightly toasted

Lettuce, tomato slices
Ketchup, mustard, relish, sliced pickles

Instructions

Separate beef into 4 equal portions. Use hands to lightly form into patties the size of your buns (mine are about 10 cm / 4") - don't press hard, light fingers = soft juicy patties (see video for how I do this).
Season generously with salt and pepper on both sides. Make a dent on one side (stop burger from become dome shape and shrinking when cooking).
Heat 1 tbsp oil in a heavy based skillet or BBQ over high heat. Add onion and cook until wilted and caramelised. Season with salt and pepper, then remove.
Heat 1 tbsp oil until smoking. Add patties and cook for 2 minutes until deep golden with a great crust. Do not press! Flip carefully, cook for 1 minute then top with cheese (if using). Cover with lid and cook for further 1 minute until cheese is melted.
Meanwhile, toast the cut side of the buns lightly.
To serve: Spread base of buns with sauce / condiment of choice. Top with lettuce then tomato, then hamburger patty. Pile over onions, sliced pickles, then more sauce/condiments. Top with lid of bun. Serve immediately.

Recipe Notes

1. Fat is where the flavour is, so use a 20%+ fat beef mince (ground beef, preferably chuck). In Australia, even supermarket 20% fat beef mince is terrific, though quality beef from butchers (especially wagyu) will make exceptional hamburgers.

To make this using lean mince, use this recipe which has flavourings added to compensate for less fat which provides flavour in this recipe. This is the original recipe I shared on the basis of making hamburgers using lower fat beef.

2. In the video, I use a store bought tomato relish.

3. Nutrition including: 200g/7oz hamburger patties, 1 slice cheese, 2 tbsp tomato relish, lettuce, tomato, hamburger buns. It is about 40 calories higher than actual as it does not take into account fat discarded from pan.

How many pages are on the internet?

noreply@blogger.com (New Trends,Hot Issues,Latest NEWS) — Tue, 13 Sep 2011 11:47:00 +0000

It seems like an answerable question, right?

But no one really knows how many websites or individual Web pages make up this seemingly infinite digital universe that is the internet.

Kevin Kelly, a founder of Wired magazine, has written that there are at least a trillion Web pages in existence, which means the internet's collective brain has more neurons than our actual gray matter that's stuffed between our ears.

"The Web holds about a trillion pages. The human brain holds about 100 billion neurons," Kelly writes in his 2010 book "What Technology Wants."

"Each biological neuron sprouts synaptic links to thousands of other neurons, while each Web page on average links to 60 other pages. That adds up to a trillion 'synapses' between the static pages on the Web. The human brain has about 100 times that number of links -- but brains are not doubling in size every few years. The global machine is."

Wild, huh?

Well, at long last, an answer may be coming.

A group called the World Wide Web Foundation -- appropriately founded by Tim Berners-Lee, who pretty much created the internet -- is on a quest to figure out, with some degree certainty, how big the internet really is.

With a $1 million grant from Google, the foundation plans to release the results of its online forensic search, called the World Wide Web Index, early next year, the foundation's CEO, Steve Bratt, said in a recent interview.

Here's how the foundation described the project in an e-mail to CNN:

"The Web Index will be the world's first multi-dimensional measure of the Web and its impact on people and nations. It will cover a large number of developed and developing countries, allowing for comparisons of trends over time and benchmarking performance across countries."

Bratt stressed that it won't answer every question people have about the internet, but he hopes the index, which will be presented as a series of annual reports, will go a long way toward filling in some of the gaps.

"We want to be really careful about what will happen (as a result of the Web Index) because we just don't know," he said. "But this will be probably the best opportunity to quantify" the Web.

So, what kind of tools does one use to try to measure the internet? Certainly not yard sticks and rulers, right?

Bratt said the Web Foundation will conduct surveys of internet users, interview relevant people and try to gather data from internet service providers, national governments and search engines such as Google to come up with its findings.

In addition to looking at how big the Web is, the group wants to use data to tease out the role social media sites had in sparking revolution in the Middle East this year. And it wants to find out what kinds of websites people all over the world are looking at; what websites exist; and how internet trends differ from country to country and region to region.

The International Telecommunications Union digs into some similar questions, publishing reports on the number of internet users in various countries and how fast connections are around the world (South Korea is by far the fastest, in case you were wondering. The United States is super-slow in comparison).

Bratt said the Web Foundation's work will supplement, not replace, what the ITU does.

The foundation is starting work on the Web Index soon and is still seeking funding for the project, he said. The first of five annual reports will be available early next year, the group says.

Blast rocks French nuclear facility

noreply@blogger.com (New Trends,Hot Issues,Latest NEWS) — Mon, 12 Sep 2011 15:20:00 +0000

1 dead, 4 hurt in explosion at French nuclear site

PARIS (AP) – One person died and another was seriously injured in an explosion Monday in a site that treats nuclear waste in southern France, the country's nuclear safety body said, adding that no radioactive leaks have been detected

The Nuclear Safety Authority said three other people suffered lesser injuries in the blast at an oven in the Centraco nuclear site.

The Centraco site is located next to another nuclear site, Marcoule, located in Languedoc-Roussillon, in southern France, near the Mediterranean Sea.

"According to initial information, the explosion happened in an oven used to melt radioactive metallic waste of little and very little radioactivity," the agency said in a statement.

Officials from France's EDF power company, whose subsidiary operates Centraco, stressed that there was no nuclear reactor on the site and that no waste treated at the site of the explosion came from a reactor.

Spokeswoman Carole Trivi said a fire broke out after the explosion, but it has since been brought under control.

The cause of the blast was not immediately known, and an investigation has been opened, Trivi said.

A news report posted on the website of the local Midi Libre newspaper said no quarantine or evacuation measures had been immediately undertaken.

Staff at the plant reacted to the accident according to planned procedures, the Nuclear Safety Authority said in a statement.

France is more dependent on nuclear energy than any other country in the world, with most of its electricity coming from nuclear reactors.

Obama's jobs speech draws 31.4M viewers

noreply@blogger.com (New Trends,Hot Issues,Latest NEWS) — Sat, 10 Sep 2011 14:11:00 +0000

The Nielsen ratings people are reporting that 31.4 million television viewerswatched President Obama's jobs speech on Thursday evening.

That is more than 10 million less viewers than for Obama's State of the Union addresses, and other major speeches.

Other Obama speeches have been delivered in prime time; the jobs speech was at 7 p.m., after negotiations with Congress and concerns about bumping into the opening game of the National Football League season.

A total of 11 television networks carried Obama's speech: ABC, AZA, CBS, NBC, TEL, UNI, CNBC, CNN, FBN, FOXNC, and MSNBC.

Obama's State of the Union address in January drew 42.8 million viewers, according to Nielsen.

By contrast, Obama's March address on military action in Libya had on 25.6 million TV viewers.

Obama's most watched speech: His May 1 announcement about the death of Osama bin Laden, seen by 56.5 million television viewers,

Authorities check 'credible' terrorist threats to NYC, D.C.

noreply@blogger.com (New Trends,Hot Issues,Latest NEWS) — Fri, 09 Sep 2011 07:42:00 +0000

WASHINGTON – Federal authorities investigated "specific, credible but unconfirmed" threats Thursday night involving possible plots to attack New York City and Washington around the 9/11 anniversary, the Department of Homeland Security said.

The threat involving possible bombings was shared withNew York and Washington police.

The threat information was about three people who may have been dispatched to the U.S. to meet with associates to carry out the attacks, said a federal law enforcement official who was not authorized to speak publicly and asked not be identified.

President Obama was briefed about the matter Thursday morning and received updates during the day.

Department of Homeland Security spokesman Matt Chandler said documents recovered from the raid in May on Osama bin Laden's compound in Pakistan revealed al-Qaeda's interest to strike the U.S. on meaningful dates.

"In this instance, it's accurate that there is specific, credible but unconfirmed threat information," Chandler said. "As we always do before important dates like the anniversary of 9/11, we will undoubtedly get more reporting in the coming days."

New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg said the threat, while credible, was "not corroborated." He urged New Yorkers to go about their business as usual.

"There is no reason to change any of your routines," he said at a news conference Thursday night. He also urged citizens to report anything suspicious.

New York Police Commissioner Ray Kelly said the department was extending officers' shifts and would be increasing police presence on the streets.

He also said officers would be conducting additional bag checks at subway stations and warned citizens they might encounter police checkpoints throughout the city.

The threat information did not prompt an immediate elevation of the national threat level.

Earlier Thursday, Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano said there was "lots of chatter" among known terror associates and on jihadi websites in the run-up to Sunday's 10th anniversary of the attacks that killed nearly 3,000 people at the World Trade Center in New York, the Pentagon in Arlington, Va., and Shanksville, Pa.

In the past several days, federal, state and local authorities have dispatched thousands of personnel to sensitive locations in New York City, Washington and elsewhere to guard against possible disruptions.

Even without a confirmed threat, officials said the heightened state of alert was necessary because of al-Qaeda's stated intent to strike on the 9/11 anniversary.

Attorney General Eric Holder said there would be noticeable increases in law enforcement at national landmarks and public gatherings commemorating the anniversary.

Napolitano said more air marshals would be riding commercial airlines, which al-Qaeda hijackers converted into guided missles during the 2001 attacks.

Amtrak is stepping up screenings of passengers and baggage throughout its rail system, including the heavily traveled Northeast corridor.

Information seized from bin Laden's compound shortly after the terrorist leader was killed by Navy SEALs revealed that al-Qaeda considered the U.S. rail system as a possible target.

John O'Connor, Amtrak vice president and police chief, said the railroad is expanding patrols and bomb-detection teams.

White House chief counterterrorism adviser John Brennan said U.S. efforts in the aftermath of 9/11 — specifically the elimination of top-level terror leaders — have "made it much more difficult" for operatives to launch large-scale attacks.

Al-Qaeda "has taken it on the chin," Brennan said.

The death of bin Laden, the architect of 9/11, was the most significant and symbolic of the organization's losses.

Brennan said the material shows the al-Qaeda chief was "a little out of touch about how debilitated his organization was" after years of battle with U.S. and other forces.

"He was pushing for these major types of attacks," Brennan said. "I think his lieutenants were trying to tell him, 'We know what you want to do — great aspirations — but our ability to do that is degraded because we are losing people.'"

Baha Mousa inquiry: Events must never be repeated, PM says

noreply@blogger.com (New Trends,Hot Issues,Latest NEWS) — Thu, 08 Sep 2011 17:54:00 +0000

Events leading to the death of an Iraqi civilian in British army custody should never be allowed to happen again, Prime Minister David Cameron has said.

He said the 93 injuries sustained by Baha Mousa after banned interrogation methods were used were "shocking".

An inquiry found there was a "serious breach of discipline" by troops.

The head of the Army, General Sir Peter Wall, said the "shameful circumstances" had cast a "dark shadow" over the "high" reputation of the service.

Speaking in Downing Street after inquiry chairman Sir William Gage published his 1,366-page report, Mr Cameron said: "The British Army, as it does, should uphold the highest standards.

"If there is further evidence that comes out of this inquiry that requires action to be taken, it should be taken."

Some of the soldiers named in the report have been suspended from military service in the wake of the inquiry.

'No excuses'

Mr Mousa was arrested, along with nine other Iraqis, at the Haitham Hotel in Basra on 14 September 2003 by members of the 1st Battalion The Queen's Lancashire Regiment (1QLR).

The hotel receptionist's 22-year-old wife had died of cancer shortly before his detention, meaning his death two days after the arrest left his two young sons orphaned.

The inquiry concluded that the death of the innocent Iraqi was caused by a combination of his weakened physical state and a final bout of abuse.

Mr Mousa was hooded for nearly 24 of the 36 hours he spent in British detention - an interrogation technique which had been banned in 1972.

The head of the Army said moves to introduce many of the 73 recommendations in the report were "well advanced".

Sir Peter added that the incident took place at a time when the Army faced "hostile and intense" challenges but there could be "no excuses".

Presenting his report, Sir William said a "large number" of soldiers assaulted Mr Mousa and the other detainees, and he added that many others - including several officers - must have known what was happening.

He added the death was a "very great stain on the reputation of the Army, and no doubt they did at the time greatly damage some of the good work done by 1QLR and other units in Iraq".

Cpl Donald Payne had violently assaulted Mr Mousa in the minutes before he died, punching and possibly kicking him, and using a dangerous restraint method, the inquiry found.

While this was a "contributory cause" in the death, Mr Mousa had already been weakened by factors including lack of food and water, heat, exhaustion, fear, previous injuries and the hooding and stress positions used.

Payne became the first member of the British armed forces convicted of a war crime when he admitted inhumane treatment at a court martial in 2007. He was jailed for a year and dismissed from the Army.

The inquiry considered why banned interrogation methods, including hooding, white noise, sleep deprivation, food deprivation and painful stress positions, were used during the Iraq campaign.

Sir William found knowledge of this ban - introduced in the UK after an investigation into prisoner treatment in Northern Ireland - had "largely been lost" because of "corporate failure of the MoD".

General Lord Dannatt, the head of the British Army when the Baha Mousa inquiry was set up in 2008, said there was no attempt to cover up anything about Mr Mousa's death.

He told the BBC the hearings "would not have come about had the Army not been open and transparent prior to the inception of this inquiry".

After A Tummy Tuck: Recovery

noreply@blogger.com (New Trends,Hot Issues,Latest NEWS) — Thu, 08 Sep 2011 17:50:00 +0000

Tummy tuck recovery lasts between three and six months. During that time, you may experience some pain. It's very important to allow for a full recovery. Trying to do too much too soon can cause complications.

In this article, you will first discover what you can expect during recovery. Second, you will learn what activities you will be allowed to perform. And third, you will find out ways you can speed up your healing process.

What To Expect During The Tummy Tuck Recovery Process

A full recovery can take up to six months. Scars will continue fading after that time. Skin discoloration will gradually lessen over the next one to two years.

During the first weeks after surgery, you may experience swelling of the abdomen. This is completely natural. It's the body's reaction to the sudden change. You will feel discomfort and your doctor will probably prescribe painkillers.

You will also experience significant bruising of your skin. A compression garment can provide support your body needs to help it heal. It can also reduce swelling and bruising.

Limited activity

Though a complete cover he may take up to six months, the first six weeks are the most critical.

Your doctor will order you to stay home from work for several days. Heavy exertion will be prohibited for at least the first three weeks. You will not be allowed to drive, have sex, or engage in any taxing activities.

Use of a public pool will also be disallowed. This can cause complications resulting in serious infections.

A change in diet will be recommended to help your abdominal muscles strengthen themselves. This will help prevent the same problem from reoccurring.

Patients must do without nicotine as part of their tummy tuck recovery process. Nicotine can have an adverse affect during recovery.

Tips To Help Your Tummy Tuck Recovery

There are several ways you can speed your recovery after surgery. These involve a combination of simple exercise, proper body position, and precautions when showering.

As previously noted, you should not engage in any demanding activities. You should avoid anything that causes discomfort. However, during your first few days, you must walk around (cautiously) every once in a while. Doing this once an hour will help to better circulate your blood and prevent blood clots.

You must avoid tension in your abdomen. Whether you are sitting, lying down, or walking, try to keep your stomach relaxed. If your abdomen is continually tense, stressed will be placed on the surgical sutures. This can cause them to rip out.

During the first two weeks, you cannot take baths. Water may cause damage to the area of surgery. Instead, sponge baths must be given. Showers will eventually be permitted. Take special care with the surgical tape when you shower.

Spy Mouse iPhone Review

noreply@blogger.com (New Trends,Hot Issues,Latest NEWS) — Thu, 08 Sep 2011 17:48:00 +0000

In Spy Mouse you play the part of a vigilant mouse running through houses looking for slices of cheese. It's an easy puzzle game you can load up whenever boredom or free time strikes. You have to be wary of cat patrols and other dangers that are out to exterminate you.

There are six worlds you have to conquer. Each one has about ten levels making it quite a big game. Some stages you have to complete without being detected and another stage has to be completed with a limit number of paths a player can trace. These objectives are quite hard to complete and the game can keep you exceptionally busy for a long time. Better leave a message on your answering machine that you will be unavailable for a few weeks.

There is also a boss fight with a cat. The cat and mouse fight is an interesting addition to the game and provides a little action for a change. For most part of the game you will be running and hiding. For many action fans this will be the best part of the game. Unfortunately, cat and mouse fights are extremely rare and you will wish Firemint had included more such scenarios.

Spy Mouse provides no fast furious action. The graphics are very well done and the pictures are razor sharp and polished to the bone. It's clear that Firement went through a lot of trouble to make the game visually appealing to bring mobile gaming on par with giant game consoles like the Wii and PlayStation. Nevertheless, the game is mediocre and average despite its impressive graphics. The pace of the game is slow and tedious and most people will play it out of boredom and nothing else. In some levels you will spend a fair amount of time simply waiting for patrolling cats to disappear before you continue on your journey. You can't really challenge them at will, unless you want to die. There is no addictive gameplay or any exciting tactics you can call upon. The only surprise is the occasional boss cat mouse fight mentioned before.

Spy Mouse is only a game you play when your gaming console is too far away. Perhaps you are a passenger while wifey is driving to that pleasure resort you have been promising the kids since 1999 and now you've run out of excuses and had to put down the PlayStation controls and drive to that wretched place. Instead of cursing and swearing all the way, simply load up Spy Mouse and you won't see the trip at all.

4 Reasons YOU Are Failing to Make an Online Income

noreply@blogger.com (New Trends,Hot Issues,Latest NEWS) — Thu, 08 Sep 2011 17:46:00 +0000

In these times of recession, job losses/redundancies, huge debts etc. Many people are turning to the internet to look for another possible source of income. However, most of these people, no matter how hard they try, never seem to make anything close to what they want to achieve online. In this article I am going to outline 4 reasons why this is happening.

Firstly, many of these people want to earn money for doing next to nothing. They see all these internet millionaires who only seem to have to send an email to make tens of thousands of dollars and believe that they should be able to do the same.

What they fail to realize is that these millionaires have been online for 5, 10 maybe 15 or more years. Working hard day in day out to build their business to a level where they don't have to work hard anymore. For those of you out there who believe you can make millions online, overnight, with next to zero work, you are sadly mistaken.

Secondly, there are people out there who are scared of failing. They believe that they must do everything correct on the first try or they will be laughed at or shunned by the marketers who have already got a successful business running. I will let you in to a little secret you may not have thought about. Most of these marketers were in your shoes when they first started, the only difference is they were not as afraid of making those few failures before they tasted success.

As they have been in your shoes, most marketers will be only to glad to help with minor tasks or things you simply don't understand. There are forums all over the internet where there are accomplished marketers only too willing to help those newbie marketers out with takes they once struggled with. Do not be scared of failure and do not be scared to ask for help.

On the other hand, there are those newbie marketers out there who are quite accomplished with the technical side of internet marketing. These marketers can build blogs, websites, products etc. Without any problem. However, some of them still fail in the long term, they make a few sales here and there with their first product but this sales slowly stop and their second product will be lucky to make one sale. The reason this is happening? They aren't building a list!

I am sure no matter how long you have been online you will have heard someone say 'the money is in the list' or 'success lies within your list' and if you haven't, you have now. This is possibly the greatest piece of advice you could ever be given online. Think about it, with a list you can sell to people on demand, whenever you need to, by sending an email and promoting either your own product or someone else's. In the beginning you may only get 1-2 subscribers a week, but this number will grow as your online business grows and before you know what has happened you have a list of 1000s.

Finally, many newer marketers out there need a mentor. Someone who can teach them what to do and what not to do. Someone to walk them step-by-step down the right path, avoiding mistakes and giving them tips. Someone you can depend on and turn to in those moments when you are well and truly stumped.

The reason a mentor can be the difference between success and failure for a newer marketer is one I have already briefly mentioned. They have been in your shoes, they have taken those first steps before, they have made the same mistakes and been stuck with the same simple things. This experience makes them an invaluable asset to have when you are starting an online business and an asset which can take your business past beginner and to the level you always dreamed off.

How To Speed Up Your Computer Quickly And Easily - No Additional Software Required

noreply@blogger.com (New Trends,Hot Issues,Latest NEWS) — Thu, 08 Sep 2011 17:41:00 +0000

You often restart it just to find out that your work is lost. If you want to avoid wasting your time and effort just because of a slow-running system here are some simple and yet very effective ways to speed up your computer.

First of all, you should try increasing the virtual memory space on your PC. In many cases the issue is related to lack of Random Access Memory, or Ram. You can reset it by clicking on your start menu, then on 'My Computer', where you should an option called 'system information' or 'system performances'. Under performance you should click the 'settings' link, then the 'advanced' option. Lastly, click 'change' from the virtual memory option. There you will be able to change the virtual memory settings for your system and if needed, free up some space.

Another thing that might help is to store less files within your C drive. The C drive is usually the main drive that contains all the files required by the operating system. If you have too many games, applications or other files there that you can do without, do not forget to delete them. Resetting your start=up menu can also do wonders when trying to speed up your computer. And the good news is that it is actually a fairly easy process. All you have to do is to delete the programs that you do not need to execute whenever the system starts up.

While some people can settle for rebooting their PCs every time they run so slow that they are unusable, or already frozen, you should have higher standards. There is no point in getting frustrated due to data loss. A slow system means low work efficiency, a lot of time wasted and nervous break downs. Why would someone have to handle all of these when the solutions are so simple that everyone can apply them? You do not have to be a computer geek to check the amount of free virtual memory or to delete the applications that are wasting your computer's resources and your time.

Nevertheless, if you feel that you need additional help, remember that there are a lot of reliable applications out there that are specially designed to speed up your computer. Just make sure you do not pay for anything before you read some reviews and ensure you are buying software from a reputable company.

The Easy Way to Get Digital TV

noreply@blogger.com (New Trends,Hot Issues,Latest NEWS) — Tue, 06 Sep 2011 12:02:00 +0000

One of the most straightforward ways to go digital without having to pay a subscription is Freeview. Freeview represents excellent value for money but there are ways of really making the most of it.

Freeview offers various types of set top boxes including Freeview HD and Freeview+ giving you freedom to choose which type is better for you.

Using the correct equipment really does make a difference in the quality of your Freeview reception.

Your Freeview Aerial Installation needs to take into account a number of factors unique to your home, including, the area you live, any obstructions to your rooftop amongst other things.

The right installer will know exactly what to look for so you get the best possible quality viewing. By using the wrong free view aerial, you could suffer from constantly fuzzy pictures, loss of channels and other equally annoying issues that can ruin an evening's viewing, or stop you seeing that all important series finale you've been looking forward to.

For trouble free Freeview reception it's highly recommended the installation is wired with benchmarked cable, which will ensure the signal strength is always strong. It is also important to make sure the aerial has an uninterrupted line of sight to the transmitter, so that there is never any loss of picture quality.

If you have a Freeview set top box downstairs, one in the bedroom and another up in the loft conversion, for example, you may find that the picture quality differs between each. This is because one or two of the Freeview TV aerials may have not have a clear line of sight to the transmitter. It's a common problem and one that can be easily avoided if you use the right Freeview Installers.

The latest thing is Freeview HD. This gives a far superior viewing experience with the sharpest picture and sound. If you enjoy sport, nature programmes or the latest films, then HD could make all the difference, and it comes at a reasonable price too. The real beauty of Freeview is that it's a simple one off payment with no future subscription.

You can also have more than one set top box in different rooms in your home and your installer can use addition equipment to allow this to run from your TV Aerial.

The Best Online Home Based Business Opportunities

noreply@blogger.com (New Trends,Hot Issues,Latest NEWS) — Tue, 06 Sep 2011 11:59:00 +0000

There's always been a market for business opportunities for as far back as I can remember. And I'm sure if you asked your parents and even your grandparents they'd be able to tell you stories of people selling online home based business opportunities from the back pages of newspapers since the first newspapers went into mass production.

The arrival of the Internet was like a new gold rush for the folks selling business opps to people. Not only did they now have a massive audience but also they could reach millions of people all over the world without paying the extortionate advertising costs they were used to.

The problem was that most of what was touted as online business opportunities in those early days of the Internet were just hollow scams that never delivered the goods. And it left a lot of early online entrepreneurs with a sour taste in their mouth - some people were put off the idea of having their own online business forever.

And that's a real shame because the reality is that you can earn an honest and healthy income from any number of different online business opportunities. There are plenty of legitimate online home based businesses that you can become involved in for little or no financial investment required up front. The problem is that the real opportunities get buried behind the glitzy offers that promise you untold riches for little or no work.

So What Types of Online Business Opportunities are There?

1. Affiliate Marketing

This is a popular opp as it's never failed to generate results for people who learn the basics and then work very hard towards their financial goals. There are plenty of affiliate marketers who have gone from $0 per day when they started to $500 per day within 12 months. Affiliate marketing isn't hard to learn and it's a completely legitimate and honest way to earn a living online.

2. Information Products

Another extremely popular online business is creating and selling info products or eBooks online through vendors like ClickBank. There is a growing demand for digital products on pretty much any topic you can imagine - from raising tropical fish to reviving your relationship with your ex. And again this is a business model where you can go from earning $0 per day to earning several hundred dollars per day in a year or less.

Just remember one thing when you're considering a variety of Internet home based business opportunities that there's one very important word you need to focus on - "business". Because working online means you're running a business and you need to behave like that and plan out how you want your business to develop. Too many people approach an online business as if it's not a real business and they tend to be the people who struggle the most, produce the most disappointing results and quit after 6 months. And left asking themselves, I wonder how that happened?
