There are no records in history of anyone dying from the active ingredient in marijuana which is THC. Smoking itself is harmful and could probably kill you just cause smoking itself is harmful. You can get around this by using a vaporizer or by eating marjuana in a snack or food after preparing the marijuana by frying it in some kind of fat like butter. You can take insane amounts of THC these days by consuming butane hash oil made from good weed and no you won't die unless there impurities in the hash oil or worst case scenario you will have a bad trip and get a panic attack but you probably won't die. You are.more.likely.to die from coffee than from marijuana, but even that scenario is quite unlikely.

It is awesome. Recommended questions (and answers) was muissing so far.

The biggest problem was that until now Musing was merely a feed and no awesome threads were highlighted. The problem with that being that when you arrive on the site via an external link, you don’t know where to go next.

Shaping the flow of traffic is a very important thing for websmasters as most users don’t know where to go next and will generally follow the options given. If you look for example at a site like WebMD you will see that when you enter it via Google, and even when browsing the site, each article has plenty of related links in the sidebar. That’s because you came for a specific thing and the site tells you ‘Don’t leave yet! Here’s more of that topic’.

That is also very important for SEO btw.

Thus it wouldn’t be surprising if over time, and depending on how you found the question thread, the recommended links will be more related to the question you are currently reading or answering.

How can I get rid of rats? Without killing them?

gungunkrishu (67) · 6 years ago

zyzymena (61) · 6 years ago

The sight of a mouse in one's house is a nightmare because with one comes along others for a party. They have a vivacious breeding habit such that in a matter of weeks, you could have a dozen of them. Apart from the fact that they communicate using their urine dropping diseases everywhere, they could harm your cable wires, eat up your documents, destroy your food items and cause so much havoc and this is why they are pests and the first thought of a house owner on sighting them is to kill them, I do kill them actually.

However, there are animal lovers who would rather look for a less horrible way to get rid of them without causing any harm

1. The use of scents. Rats have a sharp sense of smell and they hate the scent of some spices like peppermint, black pepper, garlic . Simply acquire these items and place them in sensitive areas where you know there is an increase in the rat activities. This is a natural and safe method of chasing them out of your house but do not forget these creatures are smart and can easily circumvent this.

2. Use of non-lethal traps.: these are human traps that are made in such a way to trap the rat in a container with no way out. It uses baits anywhere. Just drop the trap where there is high rodent activity or droppings and watch them take the bait. After it catches them, dispose of the rat very far away from your house to ensure it doesn't return again.

3. Keep your home clean and tidy. Rats ain't dirty animals but a dirty environment is more appealing to them. Secure your food tightly and seal up all holes. These will help you get rid of the rats humanely without having to poison or kill them.

There are various ways you can control sex urge. Sex urge firstly starts from the mind so one of the ways you can control sex urge is to control what goes through your mind. When your mind is filled with sexual thoughts, the resultant effect is constant sex urge. So control what goes through you mind.

But in order to control what your mind ponders on, you have to consider what you feed your eyes and ears. What we look at consistently and listen to, influence what go through our minds.. when you spend your time watching or listen to sexual content, you're filling your mind with sexual thought and the resultant effect is sexual urge.

So control what you watch and listen to. You also need to keep yourself busy engaging in productive work. An active heart would have no need dwelling on sexual urge. whenever you're having such urge, just get yourself busy and the urge would die down.

I had been invited to an event and there was going to be lots of people, I mean people that were from my past, my former classmates, friends from a long time ago. It would have been been a really nice time today catch up on old times.

However, I couldn't man up. This might seen strange to some people but I have a fear for crowds. I can literally have panic attacks just being in a place like that. So, I made the regrettable decision to not be attend.

It was a friend's wedding. She had been beryl close to me when we were in school that people actually thought we were dating. We had an emotional attachments quite alright but it had nothing to do with a relationship. We were just good friends that were close.

While the occasion was going on, I kept thinking about all the good things that would happen. It pained me terribly that I wasn't there for her.

Later that day and till the next week, friends started uploading pictures on Facebook and I felt really sad. It was all I could do with to stop myself from shedding tears. Up till now, I haven't been able to reach her. Even if I did, I wouldn't know the exact excuse to give. It's still fresh in my memory as it happened just two weeks ago

Yes, I have boycotted something important in my life for something much more important in my life.

After my degree in college, I started my job hunt and finally got a good paying job for my level of education and it was a dream job for me and a month to my official resumption I decided to try out taking a form to further in my academics.

At first I was skeptical about it, I needed to school the more but o needed the money as well as the experience. I just decided to try out my luck.

A month passed by and I resumed my job and two months passed by without hearing no news from the school on the status of my admission, I then lost hope and was thanking God I didn't throwaway the job offer.

By the third month when I've lost hope on admission for that particular year, I received a letter from the college admission office I was applying to that I've been admitted to further my studies. This came as a shock to me because it was the same day I received news from my boss that I'd be part of a research team to another country which is my dream come through. Some would say it was a double blessing but I was stuck in a quagmire because I had to resume school immediately if I plan to meet up with my studies.

I weighed my options and decided to let my boss know I'd not be going on the researchers expedition because I would be going back to school. I felt I had bitter because I might not get that kind of opportunity again but I also felt Happy because furthering my academics is my dream come through.

I boycotted the very much important job and research expedition for my very much important academics. Both were important but my academics was more important.

To answer your question I think we have to determine why it is that we have rights in the first place. Is it because we are sentient beings or is it simply because we are human. Well human rights are defined as rights which everyone is entitled to BY VIRTUE OF BEING HUMAN. So if it isn't human, then it shouldn't have any rights if if you ask me, I mean would you give bigsby or Google assistant or your cellphone camera which has AI features rights?? No you wouldn't.

There's a reason why in just about every movie about AI, the robots rise up and slaughter the humans, and that's because human beings become sentimental and start attaching longing qualities to inanimate objects. Just because it can talk back to you doesn't make it real, just because it may seem sentient doesn't mean it's truly alive, so no, I don't support giving it any legal rights, I don't even support making any sentient robots in the first place. I think you should check out the movie "Extinction", you'll get what I'm trying to say.

I think it was Fay Lapka, one of my favourite writers as a child who said that "Fiction is not just a product of our imagination, it's a prediction of what could happen". Anybody working on creating sentient robots like Sophia should probably thread carefully and be smart about whatever you're building, humanity is at the point where science and science-fiction are becoming dangerously close.

Legal rights refer to rights in accordance with the law,legal rights are based on a societies customs and laws, with the ubiquitous nature of law in mind it could be assumed legal rights exist in every modern society.An example of a legal right is the right to vote, in any society voting is considered a delicate issue as it involves the enthronement of a new leader charged with the responsibility of pleasing his people,different factors influence the voting choice of people some which may include the ability of the candidate to appeal to their emotions , with this example it's clear that a "conscious robot" will be incapable of participating in the electoral process making "it" unqualified to have such rights.

Another example would be the right to life, in most modern societies the right to life is embedded into the constitution making it a legal right, in the case of a "conscious robot " I'll assume "conscious" indicates it's intelligence which is not an indication of the existence of life, regardless of the robot being capable of making decisions and mimicking emotions, it would be illogical to grant it the right to life simply because it is not alive biologically nor emotionally , instead it should be protected by property rights.

Basically what I'm saying is a robot no matter it's mental capabilities should not and cannot be granted the same legal rights as humans simply because it is a lower "life" form.

Courtship is simply a stage in a relationship where you get certain that the person you're with is the person that you want to share the rest of your life with. It's the stage of intense commitment to the one you love and this stage precedes the marriage state of the relationship.

Courtship starts after proposal. The period from when you propose to the time of the actual wedding is the courtship period. This is a kinda delicate stage in a relationship because both you and your partner have decided to be vulnerable to each other. You let go all your defences and allow the other person in completely. Just be cautious of how you behave and what you say to her. Because your partner will tend to read more meaning into every of your word and action.

Be yourself and treat her like the queen she is to you. Whenever you're not cool with any arrangement, try to discuss it with her and share your thoughts and fears with her on why you're not cool with such an arrangement. That's the woman you wanna share your life with so you gotta learn to be open to each other and share your fears. There's nothing really much to do. Just love and cherish and be open to her concerning anything that you're not cool and everything will fall into place.

What is tie?

Tie is a digital money that its makers guarantee is pegged to the U.S. dollar. The thought is that it's considerably more steady than most computerized coins that have enormous value swings.

It was developed in 2015 and hypothetically a man would pay $1 for one tie coin.

At present, there are 2.2 billion tie available for use, as indicated by information from Coinmarketcap.com, a site that tracks digital money costs.

Who made it?

The computerized coins are issued by an organization called Tie Constrained that is represented by the laws of the English Virgin Islands, as indicated by the legitimate piece of its site. It is joined in Hong Kong.

It has developed that Jan Ludovicus van der Velde is the President of digital money trade Bitfinex, which has been blamed for being associated with the value control of bitcoin, and in addition tie.

What's the purpose of tie?

Numerous individuals exchanging on trades, including Bitfinex, will utilize tie to purchase different cryptographic forms of money like bitcoin.

Tie Constrained contends that utilizing this strategy to purchase virtual monetary standards enables clients to move fiat all through a trade all the more rapidly and inexpensively. Likewise, trades commonly have rough associations with banks, and utilizing Tie is an approach to dodge that.

"Trade clients know how dangerous it tends to be to hold fiat monetary standards on a trade. With the developing number of indebtedness occasions it very well may be very risky. As specified already, we trust that utilizing ties opens trade clients to less counter-party chance than consistently holding fiat on trades," the organization clarifies in a whitepaper on its site.

So what's the discussion?

Right off the bat, many have raised worries that tie is being issued by the general population who possess the Bitfinex trade. Faultfinders contend that there ought not be such a cozy relationship.

In any case, the issues run further than that. Fears have been raised that Tie Restricted doesn't really hold enough U.S. dollars to back all the computerized coins available for use. These gossipy tidbits have been flowing for a couple of months.

Not long ago, Bloomberg announced that the U.S. Item Prospects Exchanging Commission sent subpoenas on December 6 to Bitfinex and Tie, refering to an unknown source.

Tie has likewise been discharging more coins onto the market In January, alone Tie has discharged 850 million new advanced tokens. The organization has been expanding the quantity of coins available for use in the course of recent months, and this has corresponded with the record highs found in digital currency costs, making a few commentators propose there is value control going on.

"Over the recent months, an enormous measure of tie has been made, it has moved to the Bitfinex trade and apparently purchases bitcoin and different cryptos. This, I accept, has been keeping the cost up," Nicholas Weaver, a senior scientist at the Global Software engineering Establishment at Berkeley, California, told CNBC by telephone Thursday.

To back these cases up, an unknown measurable examination posted online a week ago took a gander at the connection between bitcoin cost and tie. The end was that tie is made when bitcoin is falling.

"Tie printing moves the market obviously; 48.8 percent of BTC's value ascend in the period considered happened in the two-hour time frames following the entry of 91 diverse tie stipends to the Bitfinex wallet," the investigation said.

What does Tie Constrained say?

CNBC has contacted Tie Restricted for input yet has not gotten an answer.

In September 2017, the organization discharged a report entitled "verification of assets," purportedly demonstrating that it had the required stores. Be that as it may, it was a long way from clear and the names of the banks were passed out.

Besides, Friedman LLP, the bookkeeping that did the review, has cut ties with Tie. As per a report from CoinDesk a week ago, the two gatherings had "broke up" their relationship.

What next?

Given that the unknown report claims tie was in charge of 48.8 percent of bitcoin's value ascend in 2017, the creator said there could be a 30 percent to 80 percent revision. Maybe this is now occurring as bitcoin fell beneath $8,000 Friday out of the blue since November 24.

"In the event that a tie catastrophe unfurls, it will probably cause a significant pulverizing expansive influence crosswise over a large number of the trades that see the majority of their volumes exchanged against the as far as anyone knows USD-upheld cryptographic money. In such a situation, we may see cryptographic money costs withdraw drastically in the following month or somewhere in the vicinity," Thomas Glucksmann, head of APAC business advancement at digital money trade Gatecoin, told CNBC by email Friday.

The other response could be something comparable to a bank run. This would occur if the estimation of tie goes to zero and after that individuals abruptly ask for their fiat cash back. Tie can never again prop some other digital money up.

"You could see a spike in costs in tie just bitcoin trades. In this way, on those trades just you will see a keep running up in value contrasted with the bitcoin trades that really work with really cash. So you would see a tremendous cost wander as individuals see that just way they can transform tie into genuine cash is to purchase other digital money at that point move to another trade. That is a bank run," Weaver said.

Adjustment: This article has been altered to mirror the right measure of tie available for use.

Well, like every other platforms, the names give to the folks who uses the platform is derived directly from the name of the platform. For instance steemit is a platform and those who use it are called steemians. Also, Facebook Is a platform and those who use it are called facebookers.

Therefore, the most ideal name that cab be given to the folks who use this platform, myself included is MUSERS.

The word Musers is derived from the root word muse which simply means source of inspiration. And as we know musing has been a source of inspiration to many people through the contributions of its members to the existing body of knowledge in the world. Musing.io itself was derived from the word muse so it is only proper to derive the name given to the users of the platform from the same word, hence the reason why i suggested the word MUSERS.

MUSERS is the most ideal name to be given to the folks that makes musing home.

Regardless of what you look like at it, an anime is a toon. The fundamental distinction is that an anime is viewed as a Japanese style of toons in the West.

Numerous English-dialect lexicons characterize anime as "a Japanese style of film liveliness" or as "a style of movement created in Japan."

In any case, in Japan, the expression "anime" does not determine an activity's country of cause or style. Rather, it fills in as a sweeping term to allude to all types of liveliness from around the globe (both remote and local). "Anime" is credit word alluding to "liveliness" or "kid's shows," adjusted from the English word "activity."

Taking this from another point of view, in Japan, Disney motion pictures are alluded to as "Disney Anime", This alludes to a specific style, not the class all in all.

The Japanese Wikipedia on "anime" particularly takes note of that:

アニメーションをアニメと略せる言語は日本語に限られるため、日本国外で「anime」という場合は日本製の表現様式のアニメに対して用いられる。日本国内では、製作国や作風に関わりなくアニメが使用される。

While in Japanese, "liveliness" was curtailed to "anime," Outside of Japan, the word has been utilized just to allude to media considered "Japanese activity." However in Japan, the nation of root and abstract style (of the media) are not considered while applying "anime" to it.

Western kid's shows and anime can both shift in illustration styles, in view of the staff, spending plan, and character/set outlines. Anime arrangement are regularly more point by point than your normal western show as there is a greater amount of a wealth of in fact talented craftsmen abroad than there are accessible in the West.

Both can achieve distinctive age paying little heed to their underlying target group of onlookers (Avatar: The Last Airbender, My Little Pony, and Adventure Time are prominent precedents).

Ordinarily western toons are more carefree when contrasted with Japanese anime. In any case, both can manage more develop subjects, in both a genuine (like Cyber 6, Mighty Max, and Dungeons and Dragons) and hilarious light (like Futurama, South Park, The Simpsons, and Family Guy). There are western kid's shows for develop grown-ups simply like there are 18+ anime in Japan.

In the event that you ask the normal individual in your nation and one in Japan, both will view them as silly. The distinction among anime and kid's shows is extremely abstract. It normally comes down to what you like and how you like it.

Great question!!! I like the fact that people are getting more comfortable with asking anime based questions on musing.

The difference between them lies in the origin of each one. Animes are mainly asian animations, usually Japanese, which like marvel and DC cartoons are based on Japanese comics or "mangas" as they are called. Mangas differ from comics in the sense that they are actually black and white and aren't coloured at all. They are also usually shorter than comics and come out more frequently. Some animes may be based on manhuas which are also Japanese comics, but are in full colour.

The defining factor of animes is that they follow what happens in their mangas to the letter, except for the addition of some filler episodes and a slight change in the story if the show is being cancelled, they mostly serve as an on-screen re-enactment of what we see in the mangas or manhuas.

Cartoons on the other are shows which usually have no direct origin to any comic book or manga and when they do, they don't follow it the same way animes do. Even shows like Iron man, avengers, Spiderman and so on which are based on already existing comics, don't actually follow the storylines of these comics because there are so many different versions, at best they pick a single storyline and augment it a bit. Most of the time, fresh storylines are created and presented on TV which have nothing to do with the comics.

The creative direction of a cartoon is dependent on the writers but that of a manga is purely dependent on the manga, there's no way around it.

DLive was the first decentralized video live streaming platform built on top of the Steem blockchain. You could say that it was the "Twitch platform" of Steem as most content posted there are livestreams that includes but not limited to gaming, travel, art and vlogs.

Because of how the Steem community showed interest on their platform and how DLive showed potential for months, the Steemit Inc team delegated around 2 Million Steem Power to them for the purpose of curating some contents(videos) published via their platform. This made DLive one of the top 5 platforms on Steem for months until last week when they announced that they will be moving from the Steem Blockchain to the LINO Blockchain.

As expected a lot of Steem users were disappointed by this sudden move of DLive. I for one think that they just used Steem to start a solid community and earn some funds to start their own blockchain. Grr

Anyways, DTube can be seen as the "Youtube" of Steem. Like Youtube it is mostly used for vlogging and uploading videos. They also do have livestreaming which right now is not that popular with their users (don't know why). Unlike DLive though, Dtube take a 25% cut on your potential payout which honestly is a lot for me and why I preferred DLive months ago.

So yeah the difference right now is that DLive is now on LINO blockchain and DTube is a video social media platform built on top of Steem.

I take it you mean long distance relationships. Well I've been in one and I'm currently about to be in another one so I know it's very possible for long distance relationships to last, but it depends on the attitude of the two people involved in the relationship.

If both parties are actually willing to put in the effort to make it work then I'm pretty sure it can work, but if one person doubts that possibility even for a second then that's a recipe for disaster right there.

The most important thing is their communication, if the two people involved can maintain steady communication between each other then they shouldn't really have much of a problem. Granted long distance relationships are lacking in terms of physical contact, I've found that people who are far away from each other tend to communicate more than people who live close to each other. This is probably because talking with each other is all they have, without it then they're just friends who live in different parts of a country or the world.

Distance can be a good thing too, it can help you appreciate what it means to have the person you love beside you, and when you eventually make your relationship a normal one, you'll cherish it far more than people who've never experienced a long distance relationship.

I'm a writer so I think I can provide a few insights on this. But to clarify, by beloved do you mean,

a) a strong relatable character?

b) a well built realistic character?

c) a lovable character whom everyone likes?

I ask this because a strong fictional character is not exclusively a very happy very loving one that everyone roots for. Sometimes the bad guy, the evil lady, the ruffians and the thieves might be the character that elicit the strongest reactions from us. Even if that reaction is hate.

I will try to explain to my knowledege how a character like this may be created. Also if what you're referring to is the latter, i.e a lovable character whom everyone fawns over, I will also try to elaborate on means by which that can also be achieved.

First of all, we must identify what makes any work of fiction thrive, what makes the reader stay engrossed and keep reading, and this is CONFLICT. A conflict is a situation that provides the impetus and the action. Let us keep this in mind for now.

The first thing to do in creating a character is the identification of traits. I.e is the character male or female, tall or short, white or black, pink or yellow? (lol)

Note that having identified your character traits in your mind, you do not have to bombard your readers with all the details, but only the ones important to the plot. Ernest Hemingway refered to this as the Iceberg Theory.

Now having set your character in your reader's mind, a way to make them lovable or admirable is to give them traits that conform to conventional goodness and beauty. Lovely eyebrows, charming smile, blue eyes, great hair etc. But all these, it still should be said, are only by the way and are by no means the important part.

The important part is where the conflict comes in. The part where you throw your characters into a conflicting situation. A situation that sets a challenge for them and mostly require them to make a decision. Examples of conflict in books and movies might be the part where a lady chooses between two men in triangle romance; the part where a dragon attacks in fantasy, the scene where Daisy had to choose between Gatsby and Tom Buchanan in The Great Gatsby.

In all these cases you'll notice there are also characters and elements that bring about the conflicts, but that is a scope of discussion for another question entirely.

The important thing, however, as I was saying, is the part where your character makes the decision. This is important because most of times the fate of the character, not only in the fictional word but also in real life with the audience, depends on this. This is where your character can be shown to be lovable or sinister.

Another good advice when creating characters is to make the character with relatable traits so as to inspire verrisimiltude but never to make them respond to situations predictably. Make him or her do and say things that are totally peculiar and unpredictable. This way even a sinister character may be admired for his or her uniqueness. Trust me, uniqueness is a trait valued by even the greatest pessimist.

Another area you can work on is the aftermath of the decison. Here you can switch things up and introduce a PLOT TWIST. Remember the story is ultimately yours and you can choose to steer it in any direction YOU want. You can choose to make the seemingly good decision turn out the bad one. You can make the seemingly innocent character turn out absolutely evillllll; the evil one you can make to turn out good.

This is a form of what is known as CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT, which is one of the most important part of fiction writing.

Then comes your DENOUEMENT or resolution, where the pieces are then restored and peace falls upon the city once or more, or if there's no chance of peace, at least the storm is passed and the characters have the chance to live on in the audience's mind.

Hope I've managed to answer your question satisfactorily.

Cheers.

Oh there are quite a few reasons behind social media obsession; some are even more rational than you'd think.

1. Life gets boring.

The internet, on the other hand, is always active. This is what happens when you billions of people all congragating in the same location.

Our lives get boring and life has been made so "easy" by the internet that you can basically sit in the comfort of your house and enjoy the benefits of relating with people whom you might not even have the chance to.

People, by the way, of different characters and dispositions. Whatever kind of person you're looking for in the internet you're sure to find. Then again we have the celebrities who have made their life an entertainment. We follow the celebrities, see them constantly posting their glamorous lifestyles and we want to do the same.

2. You can be a better or less genuine you.

It may simply be a case of imitation or just wanting to spice up our boring lives but there's no doubt the internet affords us the opportunity of a clean slate.

You open a twitter account and get hundreds of followers from all over the world who have no idea what you're like in real life. You realize you have the opportunity to be something else. Something flashier or stronger or more mature or funnier or meaner or more handsome and more beautiful than you're percieved in real life.

This is why most people seize the opportunity by posting filtered version of their lifestyles. Posing with cars they don't have or applying excessive filters and giving themselves beauty they don't have or copying quotes and showcasing knowledge they don't have.

Nobody should tell anyone how to live their lives of course but you can't help but consider that it's a shame people aren't using the opportunity of the internet to really re-invent themselves, and TRULY make themselves better people.

3. Another reason people get obessed with social media is that they want us to!

Yes, there are people out there who want you to spend every second of your day surfing Facebook! Because they make an enormous amount of money from it.

Which is why they're busy devising more means and features to make you do just that. They want you to wake up and make the first thing you think about as you wake to be the number of likes your photo got the previous day and how you're going to get a borrowed car to pose with so as to get more likes.

4. Following the crowd

Is another reason for social media addiction. Sometimes though we might bit be able to resist this, at least not without paying the priceof ostracization or being "out of the know".

Most of our friends are all there, most conversations and informations have become virtual. And this is why the next point should me as a sort of post scriptum.

---

Social media isn't all bad. And spending time on there or getting people to spend time there isn't entirely bad either. So long as you have a tangible reason to be there; something tangible you have as a reward for it.

For example steemit.com or musing.io, fiverr, amazon, quora etc are places you can spend your time and not only gain valuable knowledge but also earn real cash and have great fun at the same time!

Cheers!

I think this has a lot to do with people's mentality. Social media is basically an outlet for people to vent out their frustrations in hopes that they'll see someone that might understand just exactly what they're going through.

Add to that the fact that alot of people are more interested in creating false images of themselves online than in reality and you'll begin to see why people are so obsessed with social media.

The advent of social media provided an escape for people and a means for people to connect with other people around the world, but this slowly changed from connecting with others around the world to being worshipped by people around the world. It became a race to see who could amass as many views or followers or likes or even upvotes as the case may be.

Social media has made us feel like we have to share our daily activities with people online because our online life is more important than our real one. The fact that you could get a "you look good" or a "great job bro" online but not in real life also adds to the reason why people are so addicted to social media. Everybody wants to be appreciated and everybody loves getting complimented, if you can't get that in real life then the next best place to get it is on social media.

There are some people with whom you cant tell certain things directly. They use social media as tool to convey their thoughts. But on the other side some people who in seek of attention upload sad post. whenever they are worried and expect others to ask about their problems. They post anything to get attention.

Some express there happiness like posts all good moments which is fine to some extend when it crosses the limit it becomes a problem they will not enjoy the reality. For example if someone loves rain they must sit and feel it instead seeing through camera and posting it wont give them actual happiness of rain.

Now a days its very easy to know about someones personal life as they post everything in social media which may end up in trouble. You can post things but there should be a limit and you must not allow everyone to know everything about you and your personal life.

Social media are most people only means of getting the sort of attention they crave for that they aren't getting in real life. The average human loves attention and complement and social media seem to offer most people that.

You see people that haven't gotten a complement or commendation in a long while in real life having lots of that in the social media. That's why so many people likes posting everything about themselves in the social media because they are seeking approval and commendation.

It's not wrong but it's risky. Since both of you are meeting for the first time, it would be ideal and safer to meet in a neutral ground other than the person's home. Beside, you can't truly tell who that person is. Most people have different image online and different image in real life. Meeting someone you don't know before for the first time in his place is very risky.

Most people have been taken advantage of through such meeting. What if you don't like the person in life, how would you retreat. If you meeting in an open place like an eatery, you can easily walk away if things fall short of what you expected or he/she tried to take advantage of you. But in his/her place, you can't walk away easily should things fall short of what you expected.

Meeting in a public place for the first time is ideal and safer.

Well in a sane world, there is nothing wrong with visiting an online friend at home for the first time but it's quite unfortunate that we are in an insane world where every stranger has the potential of being a good guy or a rapist, kidnapper or a murderer.

Visiting an online friend at home can be very risky especially if you do not trust the to a large extent. People can be saints online but demons in reality so you've got to be careful with whom you put blind trust in when visiting for the first time.

Furthermore, you have to be prepared for the worst to happen so that you'd not end up being victim to certain social vices.

Conclusively, if you can avoid it, you can meet for the first time in a public place and if you must see the person in his home, go prepared

futuremind (70) · 6 years ago

dijin (50) · 6 years ago

Definitely it is wrong to visit online friend at home for first time because u dont know who they actually are and also you dont know about their intensions on you. You cant believe someone blindly just by talking through online.

So it is always good to meet your online friend somewere in common place for first time. There are many people who convince by speaking full of lies only when u meet in real you can figure out things more clearly. This world has many fake people its always wrong to trust someone so soon and invite them to home. It will be safer if u meet them up were you can get help.

Oh boy it's got to be star wars!!! There's no contest here. Star Trek is great, but Star wars has it beaten in every way!!

Can you imagine what the world would be like today if the words "May the force be with you" were never spoken?? The very concept of the Jedi Knights battling the darkside is nothing short of genius. Don't even get me started on the concept of the light saber, a weapon able to cut through just about anything, I can't even begin to understand the physics behind how it works.

Then there's the fact that we get to see Luke Skywalker grow as a character and as a Jedi, shaping himself up to do battle with Darth Vader and the sith lord, only to find out that Darth Vader was actually his father, completely blowing everyones mind away!!!!!

It doesn't end there, like all great franchises, the show isn't complete unless we get to go back into the past and see the events that lead to the beginning of the entire franchise and we meet Luke's father, Anikin. We get to watch as he's corrupted by the darkside and eventually ends up becoming Darth Vader.

Let's not forget the new episodes with the resistance fighting not only for the sake of the galaxy, but for their very lives!!! The story is just beyond real!!! There's so much depth in it that they even have successful spin off stories like Solo and Rogue one. You can't pull of something like this if the franchise wasn't brilliant.

It's Star Wars for me any day and any time, sorry Spock.

johntagbo (57) · 6 years ago

Personally I prefer star trek to star wars. Growing up we all heard about the most epic scene in all of movie history. The scene from star wars where Luke found out that Darth Vader was actually his supposedly dead father. I looked forward to the day I'd watch that scene and then one day I did. And it was the worst bit of acting I had ever seen. The truth is that most people only like star wars because of the Jedis. Han solo, chubaka and the rest of them are nice and all but the Jedis are the main attraction

Star Trek on the other hand is full of adventure and every character is interesting in his or her own way. Then putting them all together makes for a most entertaining film.

When watching star trek, I enjoy the entire film, from the first second to the last but with star wars, I only look forward to the scenes where the Jedi fight or use the force. The clones aren't interesting at all in my opinion

You are probably wondering about the current increase in post payouts right now but posts value is defined by 3 things.

1) The SP of the voter which controls the amount you get

2) The price of steem which can drastically change the vote value of people and it tends to be the main influencer.

3) the rewards pool, which is what is increasing the value of posts right now.

This increase in value is happening because the reward pool was left basically unused in the days after hf20 when steem was unstable and everyone VP went down to 20%. The reward pool is forcibly redistributing it's content right now so that it gets used more, think of it like a happy accident that will reward you for your constant activity :-D

No you won't get any reward from musing for delegating any steempower to them. I'm not entirely sure what musing's business model is exactly but I know that it has nothing to do with rewarding people for delegating steempower to them.

With that in mind, you could still delegate some of your steempower to musing; if you feel that musing has done alot for you, and I'm sure it has, then I don't think it's a bad idea. I plan to delegate a little steempower to them soon, even though I don't have much, at the very least, it would be my way of saying thank you to them.

rasamuel (63) · 6 years ago

Oh yes there are rewards. Maybe not directly. Because to my knowledge musing offers no such compensation in their business package, but indirectly there a quite a number of ways you and the entire platform can benefit:

First by giving musing more steem power you give the opportunity to cast bigger votes, which would provide even higher rewards for people on the platform who asks and answer questions. Yourself included. So in the short run if you keep being a dilligent muser (I called people who using musing musers) then you can expect to get a return in terms of even higher rewards dor your efforts.

Another way you benefit also steems from the above, that is the higher the steem power musing has the higher the reward, the higher the numner of people who wants to use musing, the bigger the platform gets, the more curators we have, leading to higher efficiency leading to even higher number of users... on and on in that beautiful cycle that in the ends come to benefit us all abundantly!

So you see that while there may be no short term immediate reward, there is a more fruitful indirect long term reward. Have a nice day.

Musing.io always reward meaningful and valuable contributions both questions and answers as well, although sometimes the way the curators weigh contents is quite different but sometimes I do not expect rewards and some other times I definitely do.

It's always something anazing to get rewarded for the things you enjoy doing and that's really a fantastic feeling.

It always makes me feel my voice, opinions and views is worth something and also makes me feel I can help people out answer their question and get rewarded, it's the most amazing feeling

Even though the things we are said to be free have some cost.

May be its not in monetary terms but they have cost.

Some things have cost in shape of money.

Some have cost in shape of time.

There may also be some things that have cost in shape of favours.

Actually there already is some sort of leader board for example when you open the answer section you would see the the person who got the biggest upvote for a question answered, that's how I got to know the people who are one of the most splendid contributors on musing.io

The feature I would love is for musing.io to have a sort of reputation score for each users to see how good and relevant their contribution has been, I know it may seem very audacious since we already have a reputations score on steemit which musing.io is built on.

However I think musing.io is an advanced dapp that boost the highest number of human currently and it will be amazing if I click on a users profile on musing.io and see like a reputations score to show how far and how good your contributions have been.

Mind you, this score will be solely based on musing.io engagements and contribution really and bot on your steemit.com engagements.

The second one will be that I want to see a count of question asked and questions answered on each users profile in other to keep tabs of your contributions and other users too on musing.io

Music-spilling administrations let you tune in to about any melody or collection for a little month to month charge. According to our observation, there are something like 11 membership music administrations accessible around the globe: Spotify, Rdio, Apple Music, Rhapsody, Google Play Music, Tidal, Xbox Music, Deezer, Napster, Mog and Rara. In any case, in spite of the considerable number of choices, they're all really comparable - you commonly pay around $10 every month for boundless gushing on the Web, versatile and at home.

With an as yet developing cluster of spilling administrations, it very well may be hard to choose which one to pick. Here are the key inquiries you ought to consider before you choose.

Editors' note, February 29, 2016: This post has been refreshed to incorporate Google Play Music's family plan.

1. What's in the music list?

In CNET's correlation of the best music-spilling administrations, you can see that all have huge lists with no less than 20 million tunes. That implies you're probably going to discover all, or about all, of the tunes you could need to stream, regardless of which benefit you pick.

While the libraries of most membership administrations are far reaching, there are still some huge holes. Some gigantically mainstream specialists, for example, The Beatles and AC/DC, aren't accessible, while different craftsmen will regularly bar their freshest discharges to urge you to buy them.

Moreover, a few more up to date specialists are deciding not to stream their music since they aren't profiting through these administrations. Taylor Swift is the most conspicuous model; she didn't discharge her most recent collection "1989" on any spilling administration and pulled every last bit of her records from Spotify, however her more seasoned collections are as yet accessible through Rdio, Rhapsody, Google Play Music and others. Be that as it may, almost the majority of Swift's discography is accessible on Apple Music.

Before you focus on a month to month membership, agree to accept a free preliminary, if accessible, to check whether the administration you're thinking about offers the music you need.

Spotify on iPad

Not precisely the Beatles discography you're searching for.

Sarah Tew/CNET

2. How might I stream my music?

About the majority of the administrations offer applications for iOS, Android and Windows Phone, in addition to an approach to tune in on your PC, regardless of whether it's a Web application or a devoted work area application. Contingent upon the administration, the work area application or Web player will be better. For instance, Spotify's work area application has more highlights and console controls, which its Web player is deficient.

A few administrations likewise match up with home sound gadgets, as Sonos players and select keen TVs. Others, as Spotify and Xbox Music, can play music on the PlayStation or Xbox. Look at the diagram underneath for an outline of the applications the best gushing administrations offer.

Spotify Apple Music Rdio Rhapsody Tidal Google Play Music

Portable apps iOS, Android, Windows Phone iOS, Android coming Fall 2015 Android, iOS, Windows Phone iOS, Android, Windows Phone Android and iOS Android and iOS

Work area options Windows, Mac and Web player Via iTunes on desktop Windows, Mac and Web player Windows and Web player Windows, Mac and Web player Web player as it were

Home sound compatibilty Playstation 3 and up, Sonos, Roku, Amazon Fire TV, TiVo and many shrewd TVs Apple TV (later this year) Roku, Sonos, Chromecast Sonos, Xbox 360, TiVo, Samsung, LG and many savvy TVs Sonos and numerous other stereo brands Sonos, Chromecast

3. Is there a free preliminary or a free membership?

In case you're interested about experimenting with one of the administrations, fortunately every one of them offer a free time for testing, regularly enduring from seven days as far as possible up to an entire month. Apple Music is liberally offering a free three-month time for testing from the time you join. Memberships are for the most part additionally on multi month-to-month premise, so it's anything but difficult to drop following multi month or two if it's not working out for you.

Also, Spotify, Rdio, Google Play Music and others let you tune in to music for nothing, yet you'll hear promotions sprinkled between tracks. Free memberships are additionally constrained by they way you can play music. For example, in the Rdio versatile applications, you can just play radio stations, rather than picking a tune to play on interest. In Apple Music, you'll just have the capacity to tune in to the free live radio station Beats One, and other Internet radio stations, with notices.

4. Are there family designs or understudy rebates?

A few administrations offer family plan estimating, making it less expensive for various clients in a family to stream together. Spotify gives you a 50 percent markdown for every individual you add to a Premium record, slicing the expense to $5 per individual. For two individuals, you'd pay $15 every month, three individuals would pay $20 add up to et cetera, up to five individuals. Every client has an individual profile, so your playlists don't blend with your children'.

Apple Music eases up to six individuals share a similar participation for a sum of $14.99 every month. Similarly, Google Play Music additionally offers a family plan for up to 6 individuals for $14.99 month to month.

Rdio gives you a chance to include an extra companion or relative for $5 every month, per extra client. Song doesn't offer a family plan fundamentally, however you can utilize a solitary record on the work area, portable and home sound gadgets, so you could share a record utilizing a solitary sign in.

Ok by murder I take it that you mean killing someone in cold blood, not out of selfe defense and not by accident. If so then there is no justification whatsoever. No one has the right to take a life, especially if unprovoked.

This life that we have, the very life force in our bodies is the only thing that we can be sure of as human beings, infact as living things that truly belongs to us and taking that away from someone, an innocent, is something that to me is unforgivable.

Life is precious and life is short, to bring another human beings life to an end is already something that walks precariously between the lines of right and wrong. It may be understandable in times of war of if it's in selfe defense but when a life is taken in just about any other situation then to me you've commited a crime not just against humanity but against God himself.

Whatever the case, these are the words of an idealist mind in a non-ideal world. Looking at things with a non-ideal mindset, I can here say that there are actually some murders that can be excused or justified. Take for example, Muammar Ghadaffi's murder. He was a tyrant and a mass murderer who ordered his own people to be locked in houses and burned alive. Some might argue that he was unarmed and not dangerous at the time but so were most of the people that he killed. Men like that are nothing but pure evil and the world would obviously be a better place without them...but alas I'm an idealist and my mind will always come back to base.

Even if you do kill someone like that, it's still can't be justified because when you kill a person in cold blood, you literally taint a part of your soul and there's no justification for that, not in this world or the next.

If you ask me, I'll say all the three leads to same outcome really, however I'll answer this questions very practically and to the best of my understanding, there are different kind of love but from your question above I'm guessing you're talking about sexual love or love towards the opposite sex and not natural or agape love

Love for me is displaying deep emotion or endearing affection towards a person of the same or opposite sex. Now love involves sacrifices, a feeling of wanting to be near someone, sharing special moments and having sharing sexual entabglement with them.

Obsession on the other hand means not being able to control the way one feels, thinks and want someone or something. Obsession happen when you love someone but it seems they're not interested in you and in a bid to get that love at all cost they end up being obsessed, wanting to b4 possessive at in some cases very jealous and displaying displaying dangerous behaviours.

infatuation is quite different this one works with with the phrase "love at first sight" it's means showing an ephemeral feeling and desire towards someone, however it's often related to lust because the feeling isn't deep and doesn't last long. These three sometimes happen in sequence in strange situation, but the most dangerous of them all is obsession.

Taste in the human heart is diverse. There likes, Love is the feeling of wanting to keep giving. Obsession is a feeling of wanting to continue to have

Obsession is a feeling of wanting to have

There is a fundamental difference between love and obsession. When we love someone, we always want to give and make your loved ones happy. But if your feelings are only in the form of a desire to have a very strong one until you are willing to do anything to have it, it is an obsession. Love really needs to be fought for. But there is always a limit.

Like poet's words, love does not always have to have. Love can happen and continue to exist, even though you can only stare silently from afar. In contrast to obsession, your feelings for him merely want to have. The feeling of wanting to have it has no limits, before you really get it, even if it's in negative ways.

Love is when we learn to love others more than ourselves. Being in an obsession whatever you do is only for yourself

In obsession everything is done for yourself

When we fall in love, it is when we learn to love and work for the best for others. Because of love, you always want to try to be a better person every day. You try your best to stabilize yourself so that it is worthy of coupling with it. Your goal is only one, make it happy, which means making yourself happy too.

But in obsession, whatever you do is for yourself. The desire to have it is so great, and you will do various ways to get it. Changing to another figure can be done, but it's not to stabilize yourself so that you can match it, but only to be able to make it yours.

Love is accepting - letting it hone itself then embracing the results. Obsession is the desire to shape it into the person you like

Love is acceptance as is

Love is the acceptance of what it is via

When you love someone, you accept him as he is. The feeling of love you have is almost no effort. That is to say, even though he appears so, he has flaws that often make you resentful, sometimes being so annoying, but you still feel happy with him. Are you receiving it? Both of you try to stabilize themselves for the sake of days in the future.

Regtech is a smart legal tool that uses innovative technology to help people and businesses generally understand and comply with applicable regulations. While legaltech covers all types of products and services related to innovative technology-based services to improve service in terms of legality.

This association is a place for various companies engaged in the legal sector with one goal, namely increasing literacy and education about the law. Also, as a community partner to connect with regulators and the government. The community can deal directly with the association to understand the law, so it is expected that there will be no more multi-interpretation on a legality or regulation.

Regulatory technology, also known as a "RegTech" is a new field within the financial services industry that utilizes information technology to enhance regulatory processes. It puts a particular emphasis on regulatory monitoring, reporting and compliance and is thus benefiting the finance industry.

The objective of RegTech is to enhance transparency as well as consistency and to standardize regulatory processes, to deliver sound interpretations of ambiguous regulations and thus to provide higher levels of quality at lower cost. Oftentimes RegTech companies utilize the cloud through software-as-a-service.

RegTech to date has been focused on the digitization of manual reporting and compliance processes, for example in the context of Know your customer requirements. This offers significant cost savings to the financial services industry and regulators. However, a 2016 academic paper suggested that the potential of RegTech is far greater stating that "it has the potential to enable a close to real-time and proportionate regulatory regime that identifies and addresses risk while also facilitating far more efficient regulatory compliance".

A boss is a leader that overseas certain departments in an organisation. Since bosses manage people, they are supposed to be kind, friendly and humble regardless of their technical expertise. A nice and friendly boss will always achieve more and spur those working under him/her to give their best easily than a boss that is rude and arrogant.

Arrogance would make a boss constantly disrespect his subordinate and treat them like they are nothing. And when those working under such boss are not happy with him, they wouldn't put in their best in their job. So any day and any time, I would choose a boss that is kind and humble.

Africa is one of the most blessed continents in the world in terms of natural resources and human capital. Young Africans are very hard working and can make something awesome and great out of very little. Africa's major problem is leadership.

The type of people that have been taking the mantels of leadership in Africa are extremely selfish, wicked and greedy. They don't have the interest of their land at heart. The average African leader is very corrupt. He/she would prefer to steal his country's money and stash it in a foreign bank where his people won't benefit from it, than use it to set up industries and develop his land

The average African leader likes power and control and as such, the make life hard for their citizenry so that they would always be under their control. Africa has everything to be among the most developed continents in the world but good leadership is what it's lacking.

francistagbo (64) · 6 years ago

I believe it's quite obvious why African countries are underdeveloped, colonial rule had a heavy hand in that, but I think the right question should have been why African countries have *remained* underdeveloped; that's where the real issue is.

We can whine about how the Americans and Europeans exploited our natural resources for decades and enslaved our people but no African country has been under European or American rule for quite some time now but yet Africa has still remained underdeveloped.

To understand this, you have to understand the mentality of your average African man Vs the mentality of a European/American man. Because of the nature of our continent and the hardship that we face, the concept of patriotism is almost non-existent so we don't think about how to move the country forward, we only think about how to move ourselves forward, even at the expense of our country.

Religion has also played a significant role in our development or should I say lack of development. Your average African man isn't interested in investing in technology or anything that can push the country forward, what's more important to him is sewing a seed in his pastors church so that God will bless him abundantly.

The truth is that we've remained underdeveloped because we have a selfish mindset, and it's something that just about all Africans share, whether you're old or young. Granted this mindset was born out of the kind of hardship that we face, it's the defining factor that keeps us underdeveloped. It's this selfish mindset that gave birth to corruption which is what just about every African believes is the reason why we're the way we are

This is a great question because I decided to write a novel last year and I had this same problem. I realized that sometimes you don't know how to start. You can't go with "once upon a time". it's too walt Disney and it's childish.

The best beginnings start mid-moment. They start in the middle of a conversation or with someone looking out the window of a house or with a person thinking.

For example, my book starts with a boy going to an academy. I didn't know whether to start with his waking up or him already at the school. The first would require unnecessary details and the second would skip too many. So I started with him walking to the school with his mom. To paint a better picture of the plot, I had them reminisce a bit to give an idea of their background and why he was going to the academy in the first place. Then when I was satisfied with it, their conversation changed to them talking about what would lie ahead. So I guess what I'm trying to say is that the best beginnings aren't exactly at the beginning, but close to it. Close enough to give a mysterious background but not so close as to paint a definite picture of the character. there has to be something for the readers to learn as they go forward.

I've written quite a number of 'unfinished' stories. I post them onto story blogs and somehow I always manage to catch people's attention. I think the reason from thus is because I try to start well on grabbing their attention.

A secret I learnt some days ago is that nothing matter how bad your story is, once you have something of a mystery to begin with, people's attention will be caught. They'd want to know who killed the young lady? How the man discovered he was a werewolf, who raped here at six android why? The key is to reveal that there's a mystery to be solved. That's one thing in always do a it always works the trick.

Depends on the frequency and time spacing when they post. As for me I totally have no problem when people upload a whole album with over 20 selfie pictures on it as I could just scroll down away from it one time.

However same can not be said when they upload a selfie every hour. It is really annoying (especially if they are not even close to being cute). What I usually do is just "unfollow" them, we are still friends on Facebook but I will no longer see posts of that person on my feed.

Seriously people, posting a selfie picture every hour ain't cute.

My favourite love song is ALL I WANT IS YOU by Bryan Adam. There are series of love songs but why I chose to love this is because of the lyrics. love has to do with something precious. Bryan Adam used the words well in the music. Check some of the lyrics below

Don't want diamonds, don't want gold

Don't want fashion, don't wanna be cool

Don't wanna hustle just to get through

When it all comes down babe

All I want is you.

Don't need a doctor don't need a nurse

Don't need a prescription babe

Only make me feel worse

Don't need a license don't need insurance

Don't need a ticket where we're goin' babe

You got my assurance.

This speaks really of love and its original. I can't love any other love song more. I play this almost everyday. Its my favorite and I cherish the effort put into this....Love is sweet when its original. Only fake ones hurts.

To some extent, bagging double degrees in distinct fields of study come with an up hand in the job market. It simply means that you are qualified for two distinct jobs. When people with just one degree are struggling to get job in their fields, you have two different fields to concentrate on.

You'll have more job opportunities and more chances of getting a job that meet your taste than those that have just one degree. So having double degrees will truly give you an edge in the job market because you'll have more job opportunities

Well well, from where I'm from, the more degrees you have gives you an edge in the job market. So yes bagging double degrees in a distinct field comes with an up hand in the job market.

Having double degrees in my country doesn't come easy so when you eventually bag a double degree, you are seen as more vast in your field and you become an hotcake for recruiters who can afford to pay for someone with your level of experience. Even if you are already on a job, having double degrees gives you am additional advantage in the sense that whenever there is a promotion lurking somewhere, you get the promotion first before your other colleagues who still have just one degree.

Furthermore, there is always competition in the job market and having double degrees doesn't only give you advantage but places you above the competition because it raises the bar of the kind of job you are fit for.

I'd love to see Chimamanda Adichie join steemit. She's an accomplished African writer who's works have received critical acclaim all over the world.

It would be wonderful to read her poems and short stories because she brings a touch of professionalism that's none African, but at the same time she still manages to maintain a very African tone.

She's also an outspoken feminist and advocate for gender equality and although I don't agree with just about everything she says on the topic, it would be nice to have a place where I could openly discuss and debate over our varying views on the matter of gender equality.

Another person I would have loved to join steemit is Kanye West, yes I said it, Kanye West!!! Sometimes I feel like steemit lacks a little excitement and that's something that he'd bring. Of course most of what he'd post on or say would be extremely controversial, but it would bring alot of excitement to the platform.

Also, he has a lot of followers who would be more than happy to register on steemit as well and spread the gospel of steem. If I had to choose between him and Chimamanda, I'd choose Chimamanda though, there's so much I could learn from that woman and steemit would be the perfect place to do that.

If I was given the opportunity to make one rule with the assurance that everybody in this world would be under compulsion to obey, the rule would be LOVE EVERYONE AS MUCH AS YOU LOVE YOURSELF.

I chose this rule because as at today, the whole world is in chaos and love doesn't exist at all. There is hatred everywhere, hatred for different races, hatred for different religion, hatred for people with different ideologies etc the list is endless. But I'd everyone is compelled to obey this simple rule, then we would have successfully solved the issue of war and hatred and brought permanent peace to the world.

This is so because the absence of love, gives way for hatred and hatred leads to anger, anger to chaos, chaos to war and disaster and the presence of love on the other hand brings about an all round peace all over the world.

In a nutshell, the greatest rule that I can think of that would directly impact the world in the positive way of everyone is compelled to obey is LOVE EVERYONE AS MUCH AS YOU LOVE YOURSELF.

Why yes it does, it's actually recommended that while you're trying to shed a few pound, you should drink quite a few pints of water a day.

You're probably wondering how water helps make you lose weight so I'll tell you;

1. It increases your resting energy expenditure: You might want to ask what resting energy expenditure is, well it's basically the rate at which you burn calories when you're resting after a workout. Studies have shown that you could increase your REE buy up to 30% if you drink more water.

2. Reducing appetite: Yes that's right, if you drink water before a meal, chances are it's going to reduce your appetite and as we all know, the less you eat, the more weight you lose.

3. Drinking water reduces your calorie intake: Well if you're used to eating a burger and fries with a glass of coke then how bout you switch it out for some water, this will make make sure that your calorie intake is reduced because water is calorie free, and the less calories you take in, the less calories you have to burn.

Drinking about 1-2 liters of water a day will definitely help you lose some weight, but you're going to have to work out and diet as well if you want to get rid of that fat faster.

It's not about your profession but who you are. Don't go into a profession because you want to attract woman but because it's what you truly love. Attracting woman has nothing to do with your profession. You can attract the most beautiful women in your locality regardless of what you do.

Your personality is very important in attracting the opposite sex. Also your confidence level is very important. If you're a lively and interesting person to be with, women will always get drawn to you. Just be you, be confident, be neat and smart, be lively and interesting and you would always have women's attention. It's all about you, not your profession

Definitely haunted house. They can both be scary but the haunted house has something the maze will never have. Something that is so important to scaring people that its used in every horror movie ever.

HAUNTED HOUSE HAS NO EXITS

In a field, when it gets too scary you can just pick a direction and run. But with a house, once they enter, you bang the door and lock it. That alone will get blood pumping and fear rising. Then once the really scary things start, they'll have nowhere to run and no choice but to face their fears and scream. Haunted houses all the way

The answer to this question is incredibly broad, but first it all comes down to what age group you mean when you say "child" , in my personal opinion influence in a child's life basically means those factors that shape the child's behavior and attitude , in the early years (age 0-7) the main influence in the child's life would be his immediate social environment of which his family is the main component, and every member of the family influences the child consciously or subconsciously.

The later years of a child's life would bring about exposure to other factors that further shape the personality of the child, factors like peer group influence in which case children adopt personalities and attitudes of those within their age group, who have in turn been influenced by members of their families in a situation I like to call "culture-mixing", and there is also mass media which exposes the child to different situations and circumstances that go a long way in structuring the child's perspective of the world, but the availability of mass media also depends on the child's social environment.

It's my opinion that there is no one individual or factor that holds total credit in influencing a child's life but rather the major influence in a child's life is his environment along with it's nature and content, but if asked to pick one as the BIGGEST influence I'd say it's the family, being the first agent of socialization that the child is exposed to and the one that has the highest emotional impact on the child.

Actually steemit's behavior doesn't define a person's personality I must admit it always hurts when you have to see engage them, UPVOTE their contents and yet it seems like they're not reciprocating.

In my opinion I don't think you should cut anyone off on steemit really since you decided to engage them in the first place, you may decide to reduce the engagement on their blog, but I'll definitely kick against stopping the engagement completely.

Steemit is intertwined the person you feel may not reciprocate your engagement may decide to resteem your blog post and their followers who feel you have a great content may follow you and support you.

At a period in my steemit journey I use to engage a person for a long time and they never returned back either through response or upvotes, but I still kept on engaging just that it was a bit reduced, and at a period I had medical challenges so I posted it on my blog and the person saw the post and resteemed it. Through the resteem I got an UPVOTE of $25 and she gave me 20 STEEM to buy medication.

See? That they didn't respond doesn't mean they don't care it could be that they were busy. In conclusions never cut a person off, just keep engaging but it may be reduced. I hope this helps

The only reason why I unfollow an account is due to it's inactiveness.

Every month I look at SteemSpectacles and Steem.Agency to check what accounts I have followed have gone inactive and prune/remove some of them. I do not remove anyone simply just because they do not upvote me!!!

As a matter of fact, most of the people I have supported on this platform and have a constant interaction with are planktons/minnows. I really love to engage with planktons/minnows as it is not that intimidating to talk to them and they can relate to the struggle of growing your account.

I even discourage some of them to not upvote my comments on their post as it will likely become dust(although I have Dustsweeper) and it can be used to upvote others so they can be made visible to other people.

What I want here is genuine interaction and one that is not based on how much one can give. In the long run, this platform will likely replace social media and we need real people as followers and not just upvote fishers.

Thanks for the reply! I have some people I have enjoyed following for a while, but it occurred to me the other day I have never seen an upvote or comment from them on any of my posts.

If you do that then you are in trouble in the long term . Just as life is people come in and out of your steemit life. Sometimes it is very hard to grow and keep all your people happy so you make friends with others but it's very hard to uovote every followers post all the time

Well, in order to answer your question I'd tell you what steemit is all about.

For starters, steemit is a cryptocurrency platform where one can earn the cryptocurrency called Steem or SteemDollars (SBD) just by posting creative contents and getting upvotes from other users with influential Steempower.

The number of upvotes and the steem power of those who upvoted your Post determines the amount you earn per post.

Steempower are influential tokens that influences upvotes and post payouts.

For you to make enough money on steemit all you need do is to continually post creative and attention catching contents using the proper tags. Furthermore you can also make money on steemit by commenting on others post or even using steem Dapps and other steem related platforms like Musing.io etc to make money on steem.

Actually, thinking about other people's opinions about yourself isn't always bad. This is because basically self-conscious emotion comes from self-awareness. These conditions help us in thinking about ways to adapt in a social environment. Self-conscious also plays a role in preventing someone from crossing the line or violating social norms. The reason is, you will feel guilty and embarrassed if you continue to break it.

Positive self-conscious emotions if not excessive have many advantages. Feeling proud of an achievement can encourage someone to work harder. Confidence can encourage you to try new challenges. Even self-conscious negative emotions such as envy are needed to recognize what you really want in life.

So the opinion of others is really important to me.

Thank you!

Well, whenever I think of it, I don't really care about what others think of me or the opinion they hold concerning me because they don't in any way add value to who I am and what I am.

My very being and personality is solely dependent on me. I motivate myself to do better, I push myself above my limits and I don't give ear to negative opinions about me.

However I listen to what everyone has to say and I say a polite thank you so I Wont come off as being rude but most of what is said about me goes straight to the dump.

Personally, to me it doesn't matter what opinion anybody has about me, their opinion does not make me who I am and cannot change who I am. Their opinion is just their thoughts about me which is gotten from what they think they know about me which they don't know jack. I am a man of myself and do not take to heart other peoples opinion about me.

The only opinion I listen to is the opinion o have about myself. I know I might sound egocentric but that's just the way i see myself.

It depends, others opinion about you do not matter at all, in one way. Quite often, other peoples opinion about other people, are a reflection of their own beliefs, and thus, their opinion about you, tells you more about them, then it does about you.

However, getting useful feedback from people, is worth listening to, because it can help you see other peoples perceptions of you.

Steemd give you a more accurate figure but my favourite one is the steem extension steamplus. When you download this extension you get your normal Steemit platform but on steroids. It’s give some you everything and your two decimal place rep score

One of the fastest methods to learn any language is to watch movies/videos, in the language you want to learn, with captions/subtitles in your language.

If you alreaday have a basic understanding of, in this case English, and can follow a conversation, with the captions you will be able to pick up more because subconsciously you may read them.

If you do not yet have that basic skill, then your focus will be mostly on the captions (in your language) and subconscously you will start picking up the English spoken text as well.

The fastest way to pick any language up though is to speak it. Speak and write it. Have no fear to make errors, in fact ask a friend/peer to occasionally correct you. But correct you in a way that it doesn’t become a burden for ou, because being corrected too often may lead to feeling demotivated.

If you like writing, you can use any writing platform, like Google Docs, a markdown editor, or even Medium with collab eateries and then share your text and ask your peers from improvements, corrections.

A combination of ‘all of the above’, with highest focus on actually speaking it and allowing to be occasionally corrected is the fastest method to pick up any language.

The best way to learn it fast is to learn it slow. Do not rush as many languages need years of studying. There are many aspects of English that a student of the language has to learn just to get the gipse of it.

Read simple books first starting with those that have simple English words and slowly moving up to books that have more details. Talk to your friends in English and watch a lot of American films and television series.

Write more often. Google helps a lot too.

Learning a new language can come off to be extremely stressful, over bearing and some times boring but it all depends on the person who wants to learn.

In order to learn English faster, one have to dedicate a certain percentage of time daily to focus on learning the language.

There is no particular shortcut to learning a language other than relating with those who speak the language, listening to them speak, imitate them, ask for meanings to what they spoke, read books on the language. And get a tutor.

The first thing one learns from a new language is the way they greet, then the alphabets that represents their language and used to form words. For English it's A-Z, then you learn to understand the sound and pronunciation of these alphabets and start using it in pronouncing simple words before going into complicated words.

Getting a good tutor would speed up the process ten times faster and also continuous practice of the language by trying to speak it no matter how shoddy it might sound helps in practicing the language better.

Finally, according to a figure of speech in literature, it says ' the best way to learn a language is to speak it' . this simply means you cannot learn the language if you don't try to speak it. Speak it the way you understand and those who knows better than you would correct you, that way you learn by experience and also learn faster.

In my opinion, minnowbooster is a better as the steempower that you lease from bots needs to be effectively deployed to earn profits. Currently, minnowbooster’s website shows the APR is 14-16% which is more or less similar to what other bidbots are offering. However, if you are leasing it at APR of 19% i am sure you would be indulging into magical activities to make more profits

The success of the steem blockchain is not dependent on the price of steem but the level of activities that takes place on the blockchain. If there's more activities on the blockchain and a lot of people get to know about the steem blockchain and adopt, the steem blockchain will certainly succeed.

Steemit is regarded as a social platform, engagement in this platform has to be easy and fast like every other social platform in order for it to gain more acceptance. The people in steemit and those coming in in the future will determine the success of steem not just the price of steem. Whether the price go lower or higher, if the people keep engaging in the platform, the platform will certainly succeed
