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.

Long time ago, the discrimination to Igorots cannot be denied. During those times when the lowland people considered themselves as upper class people of the Philippines and the Igorots are the lower class.
Those were the days.
These days this discrimination have long been forgotten. In terms of education, political positions, way of living among others, they were not left behind if not on the front line doing the job. Look now whose names are in in MMA, in SAF of PNP, in politics, in showbiz industry, in beauty pageant particularly Miss World. -
Only ignorant people will criticize those belonging to ethnic groups. They do not know and appreciate what is beautiful in a culture or not. Never mind them, they need to be educated to appreciate anyone, who are God’s beautiful creations.

Well I was ignorant. But no longer. You could probably do a series of post about the different tribes in the Philippines. Never heard of the Igorots or the Aita tribe.

Happy Mother’s day to your mom, so sad to know your parents separated, but at least you could still see them once in a while together, but me, I was 6 when mom passed away. I never had felt her real and warmth hug and kiss. Life is mysterious we have to fight life.

Happy Mother’s Day to your Mom! She is indeed so strong; she did all her best for your family, though on her own! She’s a nice inspiration to you and your siblings!

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.

Oh yes. I go more by look… My veges need to look a little handicapped before I buy them.

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
