    Do you know how to dance tadek?
    Tadek is the tribal traditional dance of different tribes in the northern Philippines that includes Ilocandia and Cordillera. These tribes include Bago, Kankanaey, Tingguian, Itneg […]

    • So Tadek and Gangsa are Dance and Musical instruments. It is played by elderly people. But I am seeing some young ladies in the picture posted. Why only elderly people play. Why they tap their foot back and why the ladies forward? The dance appears to be some similarities with the dances of Manipur and Mizoram. The theme behind the dance is also very excellent We may name it as harvest dance. Still how many dances are there. What is the main dance of the people?

      • Tadek is a traditional practices and traditions are best practice by the elder people. But tradition is dying because of modern living. The most effective to pass the tradition is to teach them to the younger generations, which being done now in our region. The steps are being taught to them and there are reasons why it is done like that.

        But actually, tadek is not only for harvest dance, this can also be perform in weddings, rituals, festivals among others. Every occasion varies different kind of tadek dance.

    What could be the reason why an octogenarian be killed and put in a hole dug then covered it with soil in mountainous part of the village? No one can really speculate why the unknown suspects killed an old […]

    • You have mentioned that the person in question was an Octagenarian and he was digging for a root crop. How can he dig such a deep one? He was aged and weak also. The reason for killing this man might be due to old rivalry resulted as an act of revenge. or;

      While digging for the root crop he might have noticed some hidden treasure. As he could not lift it up he might have sought the help of another person, who after seeking the treasure might have killed him with greediness. or while taking out the treasure some passerby might have noticed him and killed him taking everything. Anything is possible. This is money which does not require any mercy and relationships end up in acquiring. No father, mother, sister and other relations. Money has become the ultimate truth in life. Or he might have noticed some hidden drugs while digging and somebody might have killed him and took possession of the drugs.
      I do not think there are any other reasons than the above.
      This is in which country?

      • Everybody now has their own speculations to the incident but lets just say the angel of hidden treasure is out because of the history and previous lives of the victim.

        His son was shot to death last month because he is considered one of the bigger drug personality in their town. Allegedly, his son was also involved in other lawlessness in their place that include shooting and killing. But because of the influence and fear, they never went to a jail.

        He might be old but revenge is just one of the angle of this incident.

    SuperD wrote a new post, Why Filipinos Celebrate Christmas That Early? 7 years, 12 months ago

    Its now ninety (90) days more to go before Christmas day. But the countdown has already started at 100 days before the big celebration.  When a ‘ber’ months has come, that means it’s the start of Christ […]

    • The last mass is on Christmas day. The Christmas celebrations continue to the First Sunday in January when Epiphany or the Feast of the Three Kings is celebrated. In the Philippines the early masses held before Christmas are called the ‘Misa de Gallo’ or ‘Simbang Gabi’ in Filipino.

      People in the Philippines like to celebrate Christmas for as long as possible! The playing of Christmas carols in shops can start in September! The formal Christmas celebrations start on 16th December when many people go the the first of nine pre-dawn or early morning masses. The last mass is on Christmas day. The Christmas celebrations continue to the First Sunday in January when Epiphany or the Feast of the Three Kings is celebrated.

      In the Philippines the early masses held before Christmas are called the ‘Misa de Gallo’ or ‘Simbang Gabi’ in Filipino.

      Most Filipinos are Christians with about 80% of people being Catholics. It’s the only Asian country with so many Christians. Because of this, Christmas is the most important holiday in the Philippines. December is actually one of the ‘cooler’ months of the year in the Philippines. The Philippines only has two real seasons, wet (June to October) and dry (April and May). December is one of the months in between the wet and dry seasons.

      Christmas customs in the Philippines are a mixture of western and native Filipino traditions. (Christianity became widely known in The Philippines in the 1500s when missionaries from countries like Portugal and Spain traveled to the area.) So people in the Philippines have Santa Claus (or ‘Santa Klaus’), Christmas trees, Christmas cards and Christmas carols from western countries!

    Your boyfriend is wrong about his perspective about family. You are right, you should call your parents every day: once a day, twice a day or thrice a day. What is important is how you make feel you parents how caring you are to them. Your voice is more than anything to make them happy.

    bestwriter wrote a new post, LiteracyBase is a tried and tested site 8 years ago

    I have been on this site since  4 months and see that the site keeps to its commitment and pays its community as promised. 

    Paying is the backbone of a site. Many sites have disappeared without p […]

    • I am a newbie here. I am doing all blog jobs. So if I I feel exhausted I generally take rest instead of an unnecessary comment on anybody. The site as per my observation is good. Aout the payment,I do not know. I observed one thing that for a blog paying 1 cent is somewhat discouraging. People prepare, do research and then only post something. There is a lot of effort involved in posting a blog. The payment may be as per the quality, importance, and quantity of the information in the blog

      There should also be a facility to upload videos. Most of my blogs are having videos. But I am unable to upload a video. As such I am forced to go for other images etc.,

      The site is doing some effort. There is nothing wrong in encouraging a site like literacy base.

    • @sivasubrahmanyam shatdarsanam I am not aware if anyone gets just a cent for a blog. the normally rate is 15 cents and above. Yes. Sometimes they pay less. And as for videos you can post youtube links of your videos.

      It is the tendency of members to leave one site and go where they get more benefit. One should understand that the community keeps the site alive and if we do not contribute the site will go down. Site depends on the comunity and the community depends on the site. Both have to play their role.

    • I have started writing here recently though i have been a member for a long time. I must say, it is one of the better paying sites but Literacy Base should also feature the blogs more prominently on homepage. At the moment, only 5 are shown and if you have set the screen on a larger font, even those are not visible. Otherwise, I am really enjoying writing here.

      Checking out new sites is not a bad idea but Literacy Base is a good site to write on as we can write meaningful articles here which generates good discussions and comments. There are multiple ways of earning and I love the fact that our comments earn us money.

    • Did I read it right? The member who is not satisfied by his participation for lack of interest and quality is likely to be the great enemy of the site. It is too subjective to say that a certain site is “tried and tested” when he or she has not benefited much from the said site. I am not saying this but this is what really happening – once the site delays in paying its users/members and eventually stops. Those who give all the praises in the world would also be the one who condemns and curses the site which once it gives them “bread and butter”.

      No harm or insult to express for this is my personal experience.

      • Agree with you on this. This thing is not only depended on the users. But also for site administrator. And yes if someone will find out better thing then current one then surely they will move towards that next thing. If any site is not on time for paying and not not giving answers to users then users may go away. No one can blame them either.

        If I talk about LB, I like the most thing about them is they are paying on time. It is important to gain trust for sure.

    • @maruto 100 As President Kennedy said let us not see whst the site is doind for us but what we can do for the site. If the community lets the site down that will be the end of the site I know tinycent is aa very tempting site but we should do justice to LB as it is a stable site and it is depending on us for its survival. Have you seen that there are not many Ads on LB?

    • I’m always inspired every time I read this kind of article. Of course the best thing for a writing site is for them to pay us (though I have not yet experience this). But more than that is how we enjoy the site. At least we have an ease here. We can relate to every story being posted.

      • SuperD They always pay but sometimes they delay approval but finally they do approve. We have so many outlets here to interact and by doing that we earn as well.

    • Well said, I haven’t stayed here on this site for long but am trying to keep up. It’s not easy trying to earn here it’s tough but that doesn’t mean that we quit we should keep the traffic flowing to keep the site going. Maybe people are finding it hard to keep up because it takes quite some time before one can reach the minimum payout. I must say if you are not patient it’s hard to stay on this site. Most people want to earn quick money fast.

      • @Anitah Gimase Take myLot for example. Their payment is dismal. Their payout is 5 dollars and it takes eons to reach there and yet no one leaves that site. That site is doing well.

    • When they see greener pastures elsewhere they go there. And that is how an existing site collapses.

    bestwriter wrote a new post, Garden Artifacts 8 years ago

    If one were to depend  on flowers alone to adorn a garden that would indeed be a tough order. There are times when gardens look bare and that is the time one wished there was something to enliven the garden. A […]

    • Exhibiting something in a grand and beautiful manner is an Art. The artifacts add beauty to the garden and they are also easy to maintain. Therefore, in many gardens, we are seeing artifacts. We are also seeing benches beautifully decorated and designed. But the maintenance aspect should never be neglected. Proper maintenance and cleanliness of the artifacts are very important. AT the same time the visitor should feel responsibility and should make every effort to keep the garden clean and beautiful.

    • Nice first of all I like the lawns in that picture that look really nice. I do agree with you that you don’t need gardens alone to bring out the good of your garden. I like the tips that you have listed above. The lights are a good way of creating a beautiful garden. I have seen many people embracing the idea of having a long in the garden and a small waterfall and that makes the whole place look bright and relaxing.this are some really good ideas when I buy my own house someday I will probably take some of these ideas with me.

    • @sivasubrahmanyam shatdarsanam It is understood if maintenance is missing then there should be no garden at all.

    • Most gardeners will make time to take care of those artifacts.

      • Yes. Nowadays people are taking interest in the maintenance of Gardens which was not so earlier. There is a change in the outlook of the people also. This is what we may call development at the roots. This is adding to the economy of Artifacts manufacturers and other Artists. These people were totally devoid of their share in the development. Now they are getting some work to make a decent life.

        Last week I was going on my bike and happened to see some flower pots which was very richly decorated giving a painting work . I immediately purchased two flower pots. They occupied the place at the entrance of my house. I used them for my rose plants.

        Another Article I purchased was a wall piece. It was not painted. I purchased it and painted beautiful colors for making it an attractive wall piece.

        Do you purchase Artifacts to decorate you house?

    • Countless idea to make a beautiful garden in the front and back yard of our home.I love gardening and that include the flowering plants, ornamental and even the vegetable that can look so great when done and manage in creative way.

      With your ideas to pick, I think we can always make a beautiful and attractive view of our house. Not to mention the budget because we can always innovate and find ways to make it better even when we have small budget.

    bestwriter wrote a new post, Keeping records of medical history 8 years ago

     

    In our lifetime we keep changing doctors. Not that doctors go by what other doctors have diagnosed or recommended but a patient should nevertheless have a folder with their medical history. 

    When a p […]

    • yes. It is right to keep a medical record of the history relating to one’s own health. It may perhaps be not appropriate to find out fault with Doctors alone. The mistake lies with the patient also. He should careful note down the treatment he had along with the date keeping copies of the prescriptions (if the originals are not with you).

      Not all cases of headache will be referred for doctors for examination and tests. He sees the age, conditon, B.P. and sugar etc., of a patients and if he assumes that the headache may be due to any other problem and needs some detailed examination then only he refers for further examinations and call for reports. If the situation calls for a specialist he refers the patient to a specialist.

      Soon after the reports are examined by a Doctor it is for the patient to collect and keep a record of it. In case of necessity he can show these reports to another doctor if he asks for them.

      No doubt, there are instances where the Doctors are doing business with the organs of a Human Body. But the cases are a few in number and we can not apply this illegal activity to the entire professionals in a sweeping manner.

      • @sivasubrahmanyam shatdarsanam I agree with you. Patients have to play a big role. I sometimes see the caretakers talk to the doctors and not the patients.

    • Yes it is good to keep medical records. It helps a lot and what you have said is very true. Nowadays I have come to realize that many doctors are becoming very ignorant of their patients diagnosis. Others don’t even take the time to talk to their patients to know the little details about their medical history thereby giving wrong diagnosis to diseases or illnesses which can be very dangerous and damaging to the patients body. But most doctors nowadays look at the symptoms one has and start giving medication even without knowing if there are allergies that may occur with the medicines that they give out. I feel that doctors don’t adhere to the doctors rule anymore to take people’s lives seriously. And it needs to be addressed

    • Very useful advice. Many people are very careless about their medical records and reports. Nowadays there are many medicines that can cause adverse reactions and also affect other organs so one specialist should always know what the orher doctors have recommended before.

    • Medical malpractice can always be avoided if we keep records of our medical history. Its true that some doctors do not care to know the history of the illness of the patients, all they do is to resort to their own test which don’t ask the history. To avoid that, we patients should tell these doctors that our concerns are our life and let them know it is not a lousy job for them.

    • I very much agree. Keeping your own medical record is appropriate and can help in avoiding a misdiagnosis or affect your own health. I, for one have not noted down all my ailments and their dates which I should have. For example, I vaguely remember that I had my tubal ligation if I remember well at age 24 but I cannot swear to it. The hospital, of course has kept that record but even in this day and age, it is hard to get hospital to coordinate their records for the same patient. But I will, from now on, jot down all my ailments in a diary type folder to be later presented to a doctor if need be.

Is it like we can make such slide show directly using youtube without any software? I mean integrated software on youtube itself. If yes then it is really unique feature for sure. Never tried it out though, but will check it out. Thanks.

    • @naruto 100 You must have a youtube account and once you do that you will find their slideshow software there.You just have to click on upload and choose that feature. You do not have to download anything

      • That’s interesting. I have youtube account, but mostly I use it for watching music videos and problem solutions regarding videos. I never seen my account settings and features deeply. I will check it out this option of uploading photos and making videos. Its good that for that we don’t even need any kind of software. This is interesting feature if we want to make some video using our photos. Will try it.

        • @naruto 100 You cannot create a video but you can create a slideshow. You can however upload your videos from your camera.

          There is a free software for creating videos. The software is free upto a video of 5 minutes. That software you have to download and then use.

          • Well, I am bit confused here. I thought those slide show will ended by saving in video format. Because youtube is video streaming site. So I thought they may be saving those slide shows in video format like many software I know that are doing it. Well, I will check it out for more information. Thanks for commenting back, I appreciate it. I love to know this kind of new information regarding technology.

    • lots of things to do and that software will really help us in our photos to make a good movie. But I am not really into this kind of stuff, I am just a viewer and just giving some views to the maker.
