    • Perfect timing again! Got my first confirmed payment so I can tell others LB pays and now … murmuring. Guess I’ll just have to “wait and see”.

    • I like it that way because duplicate posts can endanger the site and even have their Adsense Account deleted.

    • I absolutely agree. We should be vigilant for those who have plagiarized posts and report them so this site will be rid of spammers and plagiarizers.

      This is what happened also to Bubblews. Because of the spammers, ultimately it closed down. Some can really be cheaters and greedy. They just want the money but won’t wreck their brain a bit to make their own posts.

      • The site and the community needs to work together. The community should contribute positively which will benefit both the site and community. You are right. Bubblews went downhill because of spammers.

    • I receive Notifications via eMail of all new posts and of responses to group or forum discussions. So far whenever I’ve noticed “questionable content” by the time I get to it, it’s already been deleted. So somebody is staying on top of things!

      • I noticed day I logged on, anxious to write a particular article. As I was waiting for the ‘post now’ I noticed something written in not English. I thought, let me get done with this item, and after I publish it…(I’m one of those people who gets a burst of creativity and have to run with it) I’ll contact support.

        I didn’t have to.
        It was gone.

      • Happy that there is brisk activity to keep the site clean which is necessary for any site to survive.

    Before the Internet we used to get letters from various people like this, mostly from Nigeria.  It was always ridiculous because Yard outscams Nigeria.  Now we get the idiot emails, and the moronic posts.  If I had that clowns email/IP I’d make a lot… A LOT OF TROUBLE for him/her/it

    • Trump, has really sow fear and some hatred in the hearts of Americans.

      I really hope that Trump will find a way to correct this in every American by doing things that can correct what made them hate or fear him.

      • Trump is the president for White Christian Men. He doesn’t care about any one else. The Men are to keep their women in line, and all non-whites are to get ready for deportation unless they are bona fide citizens and there is no where to deport them to.

        My family in Florida is telling me how many people are walking around sorry they voted for him. As if they didn’t know what he stood for; stands for.

    • Thanks for sharing, it work for walking on the slippery floor and walking down from a steep or mountain, I think.

      But, never walk like penguin in the usual walking pattern. My daughter is walking like penguin which made me headache. The doctor told me the reason she walks that way is because she are having a flat foot.

      Thus, we have to give her some training to build up her small muscle of foot in order to have a arch in her foot, and no more penguin walk in the future.

      • I am sorry to hear about the flat foot, but I know that can be corrected. What I am talking about is the safe way of walking on slippery terrain.

    • Oh that is indeed an irony. Saudi Arabia ia known to be a very rich nation and mostly, are muslims.
      Yet, it issosad that they cannot share their wealth with their fellow Muslims, who were refugees, because they fleed their country where they can be killed.

    • It is clear the kind of bias and hatred Saudi have for their ‘brother’ Muslims. Brings the whole Kingdom into disrepute, and prompts Europeans to say, if Their own people don’t want them why should we take them?

    • Actually, my hubby and I bith work when our daughter was still a baby. We hired a helper/nanny to take care of her. Then, we let my father-inlaw who was retired already, o come and see how the nanny is taking care of our baby.
      Though, when our baby has to go to the doctor for her regular check-up, I go on leave. When we come home, we make sure that she’s with us , playing .
      we are proud she grew up smart , kind and god fearing.
      Growing up, she only asks us when she canntunderstand her homework, which is a rarity. in every event that we are needed, we take a leave of absence from school.
      At least we, are still always by her side as she was growing up.
      She’s now a doctor and was a scholar since she graduated primary grade until she graduated in Medicine. 🙂
      That’s how modern is our way of raising her up.

    • That is one side, for I was in the same position as you when my children were born… working.. but.. I didn’t raise my child in the ‘feral’ style. She got a few smacks and learned quickly to behave herself, so she was no problem. But many parents who practice the feral style, you know they never hit the child, they never discipline the child… the child will throw him or herself on the ground if they don’t get their way.. also often has parents who have their own lives and the child either joins up or is left out.

    • What a way to boost the confidence of men!
      What if the men succumb to the prostitutes’s seducement? What would have happened?
      This is the first time I have heard of his kind of scam.

    • The men think the women are just single women, but they have been paid to let the men seduce them. The men feel great, they have seduced the women! They don’t know the women were paid. The point is; how many other scams like this…(where you ‘pay’ for some skill or education, and the ‘success’ was previously paid for…?

    • This is what actually happens in life. Marriages are taking place not between the persons but power/finance. If we eliminate these two factors, the real meaning of marriage will arise which is impossible to be found in most of the cases.

      It does not mean that both the bride and groom should have a glow on their faces. We cannot draw any conclusion if the glow is absent one for there may be many reasons.

      But, what actually springs up after a marriage is important. How they live, how they adjust themselves, the understand, give and take policy, mutual respect,..everything determines the bond between the couple.

      The glow, happiness, thrill, appearing on both the faces of bride and groom are all the days of past in the marriages where the elders were participating along with their families consisting of kids playing here and there, shouting loud, singing songs, etc. everything was making the atmosphere giving it totally a different look. The receiving of guest with respect, friends cutting jokes, somebody making some comments on bride and groom, some mischief by bride’s side and also from groom’s side were all bringing a life even into a dead silent atmosphere. They actually make things happen even if one does not want and finally those who do not like to participate in the event programs with enthusiasm will take some pleasure at least by viewing them. The whole atmosphere brings some change in the mental set up and activity.
      These are all totally absent.
      This clearly shows that it is not the money and status that actually binds two persons but only the feeling of ‘OUR BUT NOT YOUR AND MINE’.
      Any marriage should sow the seed of ‘OUR’ for a happy married life. How many are the marriages planting this seed?`

      • I think there are a lot of marriages for money and property and not love, and the families are either unaware or part of the scam.

    • I’ve been to weddings where the look on that Bride’s face was anything but happy… both ended in divorce.

    • I could understand the feelings. We can not take a solitary example to draw conclusions. This can be a tool to ventilate our grievance and express our hatred against a Ruler whose decision is affecting millions.

      He has been making this promise along with some more from the start of his election campaign. No one has paid any heed to them Those who believed and reposed trust in him had voted for him as they had not seen anything special in the promises of Mrs Hillary.

      Even after his victory, people took a very light of his promises as casual and routine dialogues made by every candidate during elections to gain votes.

      But, Mr. Trump turned out to be quite a different President, unlike his predecessors.

      So, the whole problem now.

    • I have tried to watch this series so many times, and I can’t seem to get past episode 5 in the first season. I’ve been told by so many friends and family that the series ends very strange, but luckily no one has spoiled it for me by telling me the ending.

      I keep telling myself that I’m going to start watching Season 1 from the beginning again, because it’s definitely a series where you can’t get up and go do something in the kitchen, or fix yourself a quick bite to eat while watching it, and be able to keep up on what’s going on. I think that’s what I did when I watched it the first few times.

      Maybe I’ll try watching it again soon, because I heard it was a good series, but just the ending was bad.

      • When you watch online, you can start, stop, and rewind. So you can see something… ‘what?’ and go back, see it again, stop, think, ‘get it’ then go on. It is a specifically puzzling series made to be puzzling….made to force you to think.
