    Yes, @Vallerie writing about our experiences would be easy for us because thoughts flows naturally and we don’t have to research some facts about things.

    Unlike when you make serious blogs you will really have to research first on what you are saying to substantiate them. And in doing the research, you will have to use your own words because you…[Read more]

    I have been here for few months , still with Newbie status, however I love to stick to here and write blogs here due to few reasons below. You may have a look and give some feedback if you love or don’t love to s […]

    • Those are the reasons that attracted me to the site in the first place. There are many things we can do here to earn some change. Almost every thing you do will get you a little something, even logging in and that is a plus. There are sites where we take 2 days just to even get one cent and that is when we work hard enough.

      I am hoping that this site will be the one for me to write and have fun reading blogs from everyone around here.

    Last night, everyone at the house was already in their bedroom at past 9:30 p.m. and so was I.

    I was in bed still doing Facebook and the lampshade is still switched on, when I heard the gate opened. I knew it […]

    • yes, you are right! Never get angry till sunset! And, never bring anger feeling until next day!
      so, hug him and give him a sweet kiss tonight! 🙂

      • Actually, I was like this in the early years of our marriage. But I managed to overcome it and became a patient and forgiving wife. Besides, I realized that even if I get angry he will still be doing his stubborn ways, so I just have to bear them so as not to be consumed by anger for days.

        However, I noticed that the past months , I easily get irritated or annoyed again by his stubborn ways and the latest was this one.

        Good thing, it was Valentine’s day yesterday so it was easy for me to be nice to him again.

    When it comes to my favorite Christian hymns, the list is very long. That spiritual music has been comforting me from the earliest years of my life.

    In the 1940s, when television was just beginning, the dramatic presentations were created to be simple, singular programs, just in case there was some sort of ‘abrupt ending’; such as the star going on to movies […]

    • I like those soaps on TV on which at the beginning of each episode the would show snippets from the previous one and towards the end would also show some snippets of the next episode.

      These next episode snippet really make the people motivated to watch the next episode.

      However now, if I wasn’t able to watch an episode, I can just open it on their website at anytime and watch all the past episodes. Very nice isn’t it, because you won’t miss any episode anymore.

      • Living in the 4th World, where we don’t get much good TV I’ve been watching on line and have found that the best, most popular series are story arc. The change in American television has been slow but steady.

    Years ago, a particular on line publishing site had many ‘Top Writers’ who were the chief farmers in having the site condemned as a ‘Content Farm’.

    A Content Farm is a polite way of saying; “Cow Pasture”.   To […]

    • Yes. I agree with you. Recently the are many who are coming up with some original content. What all they need is to make them understand what a plagiarism and spinning amount to. They are the original content writers. They write on their own. If somebody as per the norms and rules finds some words or sentences he can not be blamed for plagiarism. This happens mostly in dealing with articles relating to science, history, and other professional subjects. Here the idea becomes important than the words. How a content has been projected becomes important. One can not alter the terminology in writing an article on PHYSICS. One can not use his own word or definition for the terms ACCELERATION, velocity, moment of inertia etc., Whoever writes on them they carry the same definition and usage of words. We can not call it plagiarism.
      similarly, the dates in the history or the names of the rulers can not be changed. What needs is the expression and the angle from which a content has been projected.

      • That is the fact. One can’t change facts… how one deals with them is what must be examined. There are many good articles here… but also there are some which are not.

    • Yes, I have noticed that a lot here have very nice articles, very well written. But if you try to see at the net if they were original, you will not be surprised at all that they were actually plagiarized.

      Most too are spinned as you have defined them above.

      That’s why, I find it hard to post here, specially that it has to be a minimum of 300 words.

      Mostly, I just write based from my experiences that most can relate. At least, it could create interaction amongst those who can relate to it.

      I feel sad though, that here interaction is dismal. Our posts hardly gets responses. I hope it will get better soon.

      • What I find is that without moderation… welll… people do take advantage. Spinning an item is a term of art. For as I say; if you wrote about Queen Elizabeth in 2010 and then go to write about her again, if you have a new perspective it isn’t spinning.

    It is Sunday night.  I am in bed.  There is a buzzing from the far corner. I open my eyes and see the cell phone flashing.   It is flashing because it is Permanently on Silent.   It is permanently on silent bec […]

    • It is a general for all to receive a call from an ‘unknown’ in recent days. I prepared myself to face the disturbance the day I purchased a cell phone. What is the problem now? The morning before 10 only persons from office to inform well in advance about their absence or sanction of leave? Nothing else. In the evening after 10 anybody in the office is free to disturb me the reason being
      1. Holding an important position. Any Public Representative will feel it convenient to disturb me when the Head is not available for seeking information relating to Govt., work.
      2. Even Head does not feel it as he himself needs some information on files as Boss
      3. Colleagues and relatives may at any time find it necessary to call upon me as a courtesy.
      How can I avoid them? No way. This is the minimum respect and courtesy to answer their call if they happen to be relatives and friends and it will be the responsibility to clarify the doubts and furnish information to the Public Representatives and to the Boss respectively. This I can not avoid.

      But, I can’t sacrifice the happiness of the people at home by attending. Instead of causing a disturbance I found a nice way of keeping my cell phone on FLASH only.
      Even at the time of taking my breakfast, it will be ready at the side of my plate and ready to flash to make me alert.

      I generally do not like people who do not answer a call and plead excuse saying ‘I was in traffic’. I advise them to keep their phone on Vibration mode while in traffic or attending any social gathering where the chances of listening to the phone will be very less.

      Responding to a call shows what you are meant for a society.

      • I really disagree here. This is my life. I don’t have to be on call to whomever feels like calling me when it is comfortable for them. I am not a slave. I don’t have to jump when anyone calls. A person calls I have a right not to answer.

        A person is driving and the phone rings; let it ring. The person’s life is at risk. And when I am with my friends, no… I don’t answer. The people around me are more important than the caller.

    • I appreciate cell phones, especially, my android. I do, agree, that it should have a proper place in our lives. Families are too caught up with their cell phones at the dinner table that we have forgotten that it is a time to share and enjoy each other’s company without that distraction. I know a Pastor Friend who is with the phone 24/7 and is, constantly, getting calls. While I respect his position to serve others, there should be some consideration that his family time is important. Priorities play a strong role in regards to the use of phones.

      • Exactly Caleb, if we were having dinner I would not consider it proper to have the cell phone at the table. Cell Phones have become the leashes on humanity.

    • Since the advance of the technology from Internet at home until nowadays we have our smartphone with those communication apps, there are companies expected their workers to answer the call and message after work. Some employees even need to attend calls, messages and emails after work. To me this is totally unfair if there is nothing important. After work, they should be given a time to rest. Wow, if employees got to attend the managers or boss after work, then the company is really in a profits. They do not need to pay the employees overtime.

      During my father times, not everyone owns a cell phone, therefore after office hours, others don’t have chance to call each another.

      There should be a respect to people who had off work and resting at home.

      • Everyone should shut off their phone when they leave work. They shut it off and that is the end of the annoyance. The point is, as soon as I say ‘shut off..’ everyone looks at me as if I suggested they eat their relatives. This is how brainwashed people are.

        When I told the BFH I shut off my phone his mouth dropped open. Under no circumstances would I ever answer a work call outside of work.

    • Me, since my contracted phone is from my monthly load allowance, I see to it that the phone is always with me, because my lady boss might have an instruction for me.

      Besides, my sisters might call for an emergency news since my father is already 84 and has diabetes and with one leg amputated already so I always would answer it even if it’s at night but this never happens.

      As to those unregistered phone numbers, usually they are from my credit card provider to offer me a supplementary card, though they don’t call after 5:00 in the afternoon.

      As to my boss, she wouldn’t call on unholy hours although for her, his boss calls even at 2:00 in the morning when an idea suddenly appeared on his mind.

      • That’s the difference. I only like to talk to people on the phone when I feel like it. Not when they feel like it.

    • I am using this washing machine for the past 12 years This is great. So far I never had any trouble. It was a Top Loader. When I purchased it was the only model available with drier. A good mechanism that made the work easy. The speed and other activities are perfect. The credit goes to my wife who maintains it perfectly following the instructions meticulously. I am damn bored of this washing machine as it is giving looking dull. When I expressed it to my wife she kept it in her mind. A week back I saw a new washing machine. I thought that it was really a new one.
      But, wife got the cover totally replaced.
      I really surprise why couldn’t I get this idea.
      I never had an opportunity to go for a new one.
