    bestwriter wrote a new post, Wild flowers 8 years, 1 month ago

    Naming flowers as wild needs a second look. The number of flowers that one sees in gardens is mind boggling. And to think that all those flowers were once seen in jungles and forests in unbelievable. 

    The […]

    • those are really pretty wild flowers, I spotted white tiny lily wild flowers in the overgrwon weed garden too.
      Wild flowers are as beautiful as any other potted plants too.
      Nature is just plain beautiful, could grow on its own in between the wild

      • As I have said in my blog every flower that we see in our gardens were brought in from forests and jungles. I have never seen tiny lilies in the wild.

    • Wild flower are more useful for health than city flowers due to air and water process. Wild Flowers are of special interest to flower lovers. Most wild flowers are beautiful, fragrant and colorful. Wild Flowers can be grown in gardens and just about anywhere else. Wildflowers are those that grow spontaneously under respective conducive conditions, even without being deliberately grown.

      Perhaps due to their immense appeal for flower lovers, seeds of Wild Flower meadows – a few mixed Wild Flower species – are sold commercially. The term ‹Wild Flower‹ has been made vague by commercial seedsmen who are interested in selling more wild flowers or wild flower seeds more expensively than when labeled with only its name and/or origin.

      The term implies that the plant probably is neither a hybrid nor a selected cultivar (a cultivated selection of a plant species that is vegetatively propagated) that is in any way different from the way it appears in the wild as a native plant, even if it is growing where it would not naturally.

      The sheer range of color, tone and shapes in Wild Flowers is breathtaking. Here we present the description of the most popular Wild Flowers – indeed Wild, Wild Flowers! Tour the brilliant world of Wild Flowers!!!

    bestwriter wrote a new post, I am a victim of Herpes Zoster 8 years, 1 month ago

    This happened three years ago. I just felt a slight pain behind my knee and I did not think  much of it.I thought some insect had bit me.  A couple of days later I spotted reddish blotches all down to the middle o […]

    • Doctors won’t tell you this, but the body can actually clear the herpes virus out of its system eventually by itself, no matter which form of herpes it is. I was diagnosed with it as a teenager and then retested as an adult…it had totally gone away.

    • There is a vaccine now on the market that will prevent shingles or herpes zoster in the adult. Here in Canada you can get it at the pharmacy but the price is steep at 250$. The name of the vaccine is Zostavax and it is highly recommended to every adults who have had chicken pox in their youth. I am sorry to hear that you are still suffering side effects of this nasty virus. My father suffered from it and was even hospitalised at its beginning and treated with Acyclovir intravenously for it. But he never complained of any sequel afterwards.

      • Thanks.
        I too was under treatment and the virus was cured. The numbness that I reported the docotor said it was age related as many around me do have those symptoms though none of them got this virus. I feel this numbness is because of my damaged nerve due to the virus. I am working on it myself and hope to see the end of it.

    • sorry to hear of your problem, i thought those are blisters, didn’t know that it would bring in so many problems.

      Maybe you can check with private hospital for more advice, general hospital leave patients less options

    • When my children were little, the chickenpox vaccine had recently become available and our pediatrician recommended against it for several reasons. At that time, there was only a single dose in infancy. And he said immunity would likely wear off just when the child was most vulnerable to serious complications from the disease.

      The other thing he told me is that more people are getting shingles now because fewer adults are exposed to small children who have chickenpox. Because most are now vaccinated, the parents and grandparents aren’t exposed in adulthood – when apparently, this could help to ward off a shingles attack. There is a shingles vaccine, which may help those 50 years and older who have had chickenpox themselves. Failing that, it may actually be beneficial to be exposed to a child with the virus (check with your doctor first!)

      We had the exposure when our three oldest caught the virus. So I’m hoping we are safe. But I think perhaps when the shingles vaccine is available to us, we will take it. I’ve seen my mother suffer with shingles and, like you, she was left with painful nerve damage. That’s something I think we’d all rather avoid.

      I hope you can find a solution to your pain.

    bestwriter wrote a new post, Beyond the Classroom 8 years, 1 month ago

    Education
    Education is a continuous process and not necessarily that a classroom has it all.  Beyond the classroom is what one should look for.
    Classroom has limits
    Everyone needs to go to school where one […]

    • Nice post, yes you are right on sharing here about what some students are apt to this time.Sad to say students this time always engage themselves to selfie,texting and not anymore reading books. So sad, like in my class as a Physics professor, many flunk every end of the school term for they refused to study hard. Sometimes I told myself better do not have this kind of advancement.Mane were gone astray because of technology abuse.I pity those who do not value the right education at all.

    • Classroom is the place where students build their characters. I think that it is the place where students find the atmosphere in which heredity seed flourishes with in fresh educational atmosphere. Beyond the class room conditions are different for the students because they have to face good or bad situation that effect green students memories to a greater extent.

      I also have a great interest in encouraging my students to help others beyond our school community. In flipping my classes and offloading direct instruction to videos students watch for homework, I have created a large resource of free, publicly available instructional math videos.1 One of the most rewarding parts of this process has been discovering the reach of my voice and lessons; being able to teach students around the world who find and use my videos has been extremely fulfilling. So I asked myself: How can I share this experience with my students?

      I believe that students reinforce their learning and gain deeper insight into material by teaching others. To that end, I ask my students to post to Socratic.org throughout the year. This forum encourages students to ask or answer calculus questions (as well as other subjects). Once a month, students are expected to answer a question posed by one of their classmates on Socratic as a formal assignment for class. Students have the option to complete additional response posts and, in doing so, reveal an interest beyond class requirements while displaying their initiative to go above and beyond.

      I explain to students that their answers are not meant to be perfect — they are learning! A wonderful feature of Socratic is that all answers are editable, so that somebody from the Socratic community (or myself) is able to correct errors. The edits are reported back to the student, and a revision history is shown so that students can learn from updates.

    • isn’t it weird to have mix bananas or sweet potatoes into pork stew?
      Both are sweet in nature but pork stew is salty and oily.

      Anyway, it is good to know that you still have your mom’s recipe, well embed in your heart.

      • Those are vegetable bananas which are not ripe. Just try adding sweet potato. The sweet potato absorbs everything around it and tastes delicious.

    @Treathyl Fox  I do not have many connections. I therefore do not share. But sharing helps if one has many followers. At another site some of my friends have started sharing my blogs as I was not doing well there at all. There only views were recognised and nothing else.

    I had a call this morning from a person I know who claims to be a social worker. She told me she visited many houses yesterday and spent time with them. She has no life of her own and I understood her motive […]

    • lol
      Some people claim themselves as social worker or volunteer but did nothing physically to help except verbally to help.
      Advice is useful only when the heart matters, when someone is in need of help, only true friends would help, not social workers

    • People weakness on earth is fame and nothing else after this comes wealth and love is the last but they do not knows what they are doing God knows every man’s heart and awards his deeds’ award on earth. In his world man is driven by emotions not by reason when emotions candle burns the lamp of wisdom extinguishes automatically.

      Social workers are human beings but they are lack of knowledge and do not know the realities of this world and do everything for ostentation and fame but they do something are better who do nothing in practical field.

      Another benefit to social work is the ability to advocate in areas of passion. Someone with a passion for children can specialize in agencies that help children and families with children. Social workers interested in criminal justice may help ex-convicts as they try to assimilate back into society. Schools and hospitals offer additional opportunities for specialized social workers.
