    As I said before, it is not merely a plag. item, it is an item of value WRONGLY called Plag. because it is of such a high level it contains attribution.

    People don’t like to read empty items where there is no proof, where it is vacuous.  That is the problem.

    I haven’t been paid… think the site wants to not pay us. Give false stories… oh… you plagiarised!   If you read the articles I wrote on Reincarnation you can see nothing was plagiaired, it is just a trick.

    acelawrites wrote a new post, Avoid Eating Too Much During Fiestas/Celebrations 7 years, 4 months ago

    In the Philippines, there are so many celebrations like fiestas or feasts of Patron Saints. Many of them are observed during the dry season months of May and June when children/students are on vacation from […]

    • We cannot avoid to eat much during celebration hehehehe.It is always expected weight gain if there is no exercise to follow.At home, every day we do some steps exercise.;

      By the way, I opened another blog with gumamela flower and acelawrute hahahaha nother thieft.lols.

      • It is the culture of Filipinos to offer so much food during fiestas; quite lavish. And they will feel sorry if you will not eat in their house! So what we do is just eat a bit, then if they are my siblings, I just tell them I will take home that food! ha ha ha! so I will not cook the following day!

        The person who used my favorite gumamela flower is Zasa! I don’t know. Now I will always use that for my posts here because if I use my other photos, anybody can just “steal” it!

    • Well of course we shouldn’t eat too much food but for me fiestas is an exception. But there will be times when you really can’t control your eating and end up having stomach ache or LBM (hahaha). In the end, just eat what you can afford to eat.

      • Thanks, @Christian! It is true, sometimes we are too happy to bond with friends and relatives so we tend to overeat and forget about the planned dieting! Anyway, just do more exercises, and have a strict diet onwards!

    • May is the month for fiestas indeed. And when it is fiesta , there really are lots of foods.

      On the eve of the fiesta, you will hear pigs being slaughtered for the fiesta food preparation. And when it’s fiesta eve, for sure there is “dinuguan”, since the pig has been slaughtered and its blood should be made of use.

      Anyway, here in fiestas, the foods are mostly of meats porks and chicken and those delicious desserts.

      But I noticed that in your post you mentioned of crabs and shrimps prepared as one of those fiesta foods. Oh, I love those than pork.

      Maybe next time you should invite me if the foods are crabs and shrimps. But oops, of course it should be eaten in moderation, lest I forget. he he he

    Should the media library be remove from
    Literacy Base? I say yes the Literacy base library should be remove here why Some newbi might think it OK to use the photos that are in the Literacy base library . As I read […]

    • This is exactly my point. I’m not against anyone using the photo of others as long as it is permitted (and I don’t know if this is permitted in literacybase)but also credit the photo to the owner of the photo.

      I don’t consider this as stealing but merely as using of other’s photo. And maybe the owner of the photo also make it clear that it’s only him/her can use the photo by putting watermark in the photo.

      Just like when you submit in a contest where the secretariat is allowed to published the winning entries without any obligation but the copyright is still owned by the author.

    • I agree, the Admin should remove the Media Library because anyone can use it without the owner’s consent. Just like what a member here had done to me; she used my photos several times, even the one with my name watermarked on it. She/he apologized and promised not to do it again. So the solution is to remove that feature here.

    • Hi David,
      As long as anyone works for a website online, The chances of earning money are less. Unless he is a writing geek and very good writing skills. Because, now-a-days, those who have creative writing skills get wonderful pay on the go.
      To have a consistent income online, one has to start their own website and offer services to public or provide a feature that engage normal public. Hope it makes sense..

    • 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.

    • The environmentalist must stop this water pollution. Our fishes may not anymore safe to eat. It is so disgusting. Other countries like New Zealand, their seas are so clean so non toxic.

      • Good to know about the strict implementation of handling garbage in New Zealand, along with other countries. In the Philippines we have strict laws too, but I wish all the people will follow it, because everyone could be affected if our seas are polluted!

    • That is the proof how irresponsible people are. We throw the garbage in the sea, in fact, anywhere. Dumping anything as if we are the maker of all the things in this world. Poor whale, the latest victim of human inhumanity.

      If only we know how to manage the garbage, there will be no dead whale washed ashore.

      • It is true, it show’s man’s inhumanity! If all of us would be responsible enough, we can enjoy pristine waters, clean and cool air, and lots of food on the table. If only we care a lot for the environment.

    • Its not only the water pollution, All of kinds of pollution which we see in this world is man made.. Just because of someones ignorance, Pollution has reached a stage, where it cannot be fixed in short time..

      • It is so saddening to see a sea creature who died due to man’s irresponsibility! It is cruelty to animals and to man itself because whatever we eat that is taken from polluted sea can be dangerous!

    • Yes, I saw this news on TV. Poor whale. He has eaten the rubbish by irresponsible people.

      Could it be that the people living near the sea are the ones responsible for throwing these garbage? Then, they should be warned in blatantly just throwing their garbages into the sea.

      The government with this kind of news should be now making guidelines on how it can be avoided that garbages be thrown into the sea.

      If they don’t do something about these garbages thrown at the sea, sooner or later the fishes too will be affected and will die from eating them too.

      What about the environmentalists, can’t they do something to prevent the people from throwing their garbages into the sea?
