    @kaylar, they must stop their drama. How dare they say you plagiarized. Bring it to other plagiarized tool and spread here the result.That sounds weird.

    kaylar wrote a new post, Genetically Modified Foods; No Thanks 7 years, 6 months ago

    I was in the supermarket this morning.  They had just opened this new store and I, a long time customer came to visit.

    I happened to be talking to the owner about lots of topics, as I was shopping.  I passed a […]

    • I have no problem with genetically modified products like the agricultural crops. I believe the genes of the crops were altered just to become disease resistant and can grow to the desired size and weight it should be. I don’t believe it can affect our body because I believe the scientist won’t allow this to market if it does harm to our health.

      But I cannot blame those people who are afraid of consuming genetically modified foods.

      • I don’t trust any of this. Think of ‘healthy’ hydrogenated vegetable oil, virtually forced down our throats

    • I am afraid of eating genetically-modified foods, too! It is better safe than sorry; so I prefer organically-grown or naturally-grown fruits and vegetables. I also grow some of my vegetables in our small garden. It is always nice to harvest from your own plants.

      • When I had land I did the same thing. Grow my own, and know what was used on them… I’m not comfortable with G.M.

    • Organic and naturally grown foods are better but may be in some cases GM crops if properly checked and supervised without any wrongful method, could be useful for farmers as well as end consumers.

    No.  It is not that X plagiarised items which is why… it is that the false charges of Plag. cause good writers not to write good.

    Put it like this; suppose you wanted to discuss a current topic.  You would need to define it, you would quote your sources, and you might even supply quotes which would confirm the validity of your item.

    @Cely, good thing she apologized to me for using my photos. She said she will not do it anymore! At least she admitted her mistake. Maybe she thought that every photo from the Media Library can be used by everybody. So the solution is to remove that feature here.

    Thanks @Cely, next time I’ll have it (hopefully)! We always say “hopefully” because we are not so sure 100 percent if we will get payments or not! And that negative experience with Bubblews affected that view so much!

    It was such a bad experience! It taught us not to be too trusting!

    I wrote an item.  LB says I plaged.   They gave me a link of an item I’d never seen that has nothing connected to what I wrote.

    Wonder if it is one of those scams to not pay?

    BTW  haven’t been paid yet

    Bubblews left a bad taste in almost everybody’s mouth.  So bad that people united to try to sue them.  Tsu social network was also a disappointment.  Many of these sites are very disappointing.  It’s the reason you don’t just devote all your time to one of them.  Because you never know when any of them will shut down.

Because there seems to be no way to confirm which one are getting paid and which one didn’t get paid. So that’s another thing we have to look forward towards as well.

    Yes I can understand. I think admins need to pay attention and get rid of the copy pasters. And they have to get rid of the users who are stealing images and the content. LB needs to cut the people who are not playing by the rules. Because you know often such rule breaking leads to the site being lost at many things. And for that reason I think we…[Read more]

    • It is a good law, and should be strictly implemented to safeguard lives of passengers, even of the drivers. If they wanted to answer an emergency call or a text, they should stop at the roadside to attend to it.

      While on the road, I can see people doing that, driving while talking on their cellphones, even those who are on motorcycles!

      • I experienced this many times, while riding a passenger utility van or mini-bus there are drivers who actually texting and calling while driving. Some passengers just took a photo and posted them in facebook because there was no other way penalize this kind of drivers.

        But now there’s this law penalizing them.
