    • As long as they can fool people,they will thrive in their scamming activities! No one should believe such gimmicks!

      • When the Scam started, we felt that; “Hey America! Don’t blame us cause you have dumb people!”

        But America didn’t feel like that. So we were punished. But I’m sure it is still going on.

    • I agree with you that Golden days of writing online and earning has gone.. Lot of improvements has come in with Google adsense over the years.. Most of the sites today does have no matter, but they are earning something for engaging people on their sites for longer time… Google is paying for that reason.. Moderators are in turn passing the portion of their earnings to their most valued members for their contributions

    Seasonal flowers no doubt add variety to a garden but having to replant them each season, one needs time to opt for seasonal flowers.
    Due to lack of time seasonal flowers get a back seat and in their absence what […]

    • Bougainvillea is indeed beautiful and we have this in our home. Although it doesn’t require much maintenance they are pleasant to have in our garden. It surrounds the wall in our home and forms a natural garland in our home.

      We have this plant in the entrance of our college and it is one of the major attractions and landmarks to our college, This Bougainvillea stands as a pretty landmark in the entrance. Other than Bouganvillea we have so many exotic flowering trees which add the beauty to our serene environment.

      I just love them and planning to have more of them in my home. Thanks for the article. 🙂

    It doesn’t matter where you are.   School, Office, Street, very often you will encounter someone who never shuts up and who, if there is no one to talk with, starts to sing.

    • It is true, and many people especially young ones do not know the risks involved in plastering facebook with their photos! They are easy targets for scammers, etc.

      I do not accept friendships from people I do not know, so FB should stop such things as “people you might know!”

      • I totally agree with you. Anyone who clicks on these users has no idea who they are. I know my friends, but who is this? I could use any photo as myself… so do they.

    “Strange Days” is not a recent movie. It was released 1995. Nevertheless if you are a fan of either Angela Bassett or Ralph Fiennes or both, this film might interest you.

    Horror movies are definitely not for me! Are you kidding? The werewolf and Frankenstein used to scare me. Spooky sci-fi TV shows like “The Outer Limits” used to frighten me. Sorry. Had an overactive imagination and when my head hit the pillow to go to sleep, it was the beginning of nightmares.
