different café and computer shop being put up in different busy street and places.
Which yours truly also joined the bandwagon and start my own internet café business.

 |

What Do 'Castle' and 'Dollhouse' Have in Common? I'm glad you asked! The two television series actually have several things in common besides being TV programs on two fairly mainstream networks.
"Castle" stars actor Nathan Fillion and is a popular crime-mystery-detective show broadcast on ABC. "Dollhouse" starred Eliza Dushka and was a sci-fi, action, mystery series that was aired on the FOX network. "Castle has been on for six seasons while "Dollhouse" was only on for two.
So what elements do the two television programs share? If you are a fan of the old FOX show "Firefly," you might begin to come up with some of the answers.
If you want to know all the similarities I found between "Castle" and "Dollhouse," please read this article: What Do 'Castle' and 'Dollhouse' Have in Common?

Facebook to Buy WhatsApp?
Recently there’s breaking news that the Facebook are
planning to buy WhatsApp for 19 billion dollars. I actually didn’t know if this
deal were close but it’s a very lucrative offer to think that WhatsApp only
operate for 5 years but of course you can’t denied its huge active users with over
450 million and still counting.
Referrals: Another Reason I Like Writing for Seekyt
In my recent article "Earning Money Writing for Seekyt.com," I provided a summary of how Seekyt works as a site for writers and why it is one of my favorite sites to write for. However, I neglected to add one of the unique things Seeky does to encourage writers to support and share each other's posts.
We are each given a unique referral ID (mine is /referrerId/2158) which not only allows people to sign up as our referral if they click on our articles or links, but also allows us to refer someone else's article and attach our referral code to the end.
If a new writer registers a new account within 30 days of clicking on a link to someone else's article I shared with *my* code at the end, *I* will be credited with the referral. This is a great reason to share, not only your own content, but everyone's content and potentially make money doing it.
So, to summarize, Seekyt pays writers a percentage of all ad sales on our articles. We increase our ad share by writing articles, by referring new writers, by gaining new followers, and by interacting on the site in other ways. My earnings percentage is currently 72%. If I refer 10 people, I increase my percentage by 1%. If I refer at least 50 new members I will earn an additional 5%. So, I can earn up to 6% additional revenue on my articles just for sharing Seekyt with my friends, in addition to increasing my revenue share by writing more articles and increasing my followers.
Examiner remains my favorite writing site because I consistently earn a decent monthly income for my articles there, but I really like the options Seekyt provides its writers to earn money from the ads. I have done well writing there and feel like it provides an excellent alternative to writing for page views.
This is my Seekyt referral link if you want to use it. Be sure and follow me if you sign up. Seekyt pays bonuses for followers, comments and other activity on the site.

3 Simple Changes to Better Your Diet
 |
| Image Credit: UBC Learning Commons |
Big changes start with small steps in the right direction. The little changes that you might not think are important now will start a snowball effect. The effort will build up over time and you will soon be able to take those "harder" steps.
Replace an unhealthy snack with an unprocessed snack.
The key is to change unhealthy habits by replacing them with healthier ones rather than cutting things out. If you cut what you like out, it will create a negative connotation and result into a future binge.Don't drink your calories.
Many people don't think about how many calories they consume when they drink. It can be juice, coffee and of course the biggest issue for most, alcohol. Hundred of calories can add up in less than half an hour. Switch to water or tea (if you need the caffeine) and you'll save yourself a lot of those extra calories.Change your mindset.
Thinking you can't have something is not the same as thinking you don't want to ruin your progress. When you give into a craving, you're thinking about the temporary satisfaction that will ensure. When you regret it later, you're going to think about how it affected your progress in eating clean. Fortunately, that little cheat will not have a big impact on your progress. But it is best to get your cravings under control, so the next time you cheat it's because you want to and not because you lacked the control to resist.No changes were made to the image and is used under the Creative Commons License.
Keyword Planner Replaces Keyword Tool Review
Wrote an article in Bubblews:
This is about the search engine optimization (SEO) where you use important keywords to allow people to find your articles, posts, and news. When there are massive amounts of people searching for certain words, why not create an article that helps people find your article?
The tutorial article explains how to set up the keyword planner to find your keywords. You need to set up a Google Adwords account, which is easier to do if you have an account for something else in Google. Then you can just add to that account with the Adwords.
It is no longer free and anonymous. You need to be a part of Google’s family and accounts now. Get a gmail email account to start yourself off with Google. From there it is easy to get a Google Plus account. Then get the Google Adwords account.
Hope this helps others with Search Engine Optimization and Google Adwords.

UEFA Euro 2016- a Diluted Competition
One of the best competitions in the world of national team soccer after
the FIFA World Cup is undoubtedly the European championship. Every four
years the elite of the old continent meets in a final tournament full of
excitement. However, after the recent changes made by UEFA, European
soccer’s governing body, in the structure of the competition, it seems
that a place in the final tournament is no longer reserved for the finest national teams in Europe.
To be more concrete, starting with France 2016 the number of teams qualified for the European powerhouses will increase from 16 to 24. What does that mean? Well, it means that almost half the continent will take part in the final tournament, so qualifying for Euro will no longer be a reason of pride for smaller nations. If we exclude a few minnows like Liechtenstein, Andorra, San Marino or the rookies Gibraltar, we can say that more than half of Europe will participate in the final tournament from now on.
Is it a good thing for European soccer? Obviously not, because the value of the final tournament will be significantly diluted and the preliminary stage will be extremely boring. All the favorites will qualify and there will be little room for surprises in the preliminary stage. Just try to imagine a FIFA World Cup, which now has 32 competitors in the final tournament, with 64 or even 96 qualified teams. That would really sound absurd!
If there’s a good thing in the new format of the European championship, that might be the fact that my country, Romania, will finally obtain another qualification after a 8-year drought. I find it hard to believe they cannot qualify under these circumstances, but where is the satisfaction of a great achievement if qualifying is so easy from now on?

I think UEFA’s decision to increase the number of
participating teams is not beneficial at all for the thrill and excitement of
the competition. 16 teams qualified out of 54 UEFA members was the ideal number. Now, besides the lack
of excitement of the preliminaries, there’s also an inflation of teams of low
value in the final tournament. I really think this change is not beneficial for
the general interest around this prestigious competition.

The Many Benefits Of Olive Oil
Benefits of olive oil are abundant. The olive tree was originated in Asia and was grown for over thousands of years in the Mediterranean countries where most of the oil is made.
The olives are pitted and crushed to a thick pulp. The olives are then pressed to remove all the juices and are placed in a sieve to remove the water from the oil.
Spain, Greece, and Italy widely consume olive oil and in those countries they have a low cardiovascular disease the oil has a beneficial effect on cholesterol and protects the digestive system.
Taking olive oil for the digestive system can relieve an upset stomach as well as heartburn. It also aids in constipation mixing with lemon juice and taken on an empty stomach.
It is used for earaches, dry skin and stretch marks. Olive oil is also an excellent moisturizer and is added to soaps for its anti-aging effects.
Olive oil can help prevent hair loss by massaging it into your scalp every evening leave it on overnight and wash out in the morning.
This marvelous oil has a therapeutic effect when taken orally it stimulates the metabolism and helps aid the digestion by lubricating the mucous membranes.
Olive oil can help strengthen your finger nails by soaking your nails in a bowl of the oil, with lemon juice and warm water. Wear a pair of gloves overnight so that the oil can penetrate your nails.
When choosing olive oil look for labels that say extra virgin. This assures you that it has been cold pressed from fresh olives and does not contain chemicals.
Extra virgin means the best flavor and it is a golden yellow color that is a higher quality.
The essentials in olive oil have 77 percent of monounsaturated fatty acids, 9 percent polyunsaturated fatty acids,14 percent saturated fatty acids and vitamin E .

The Haunting Hotel Called Ballyseede Castle in Ireland
I plan to visit Ireland next year where
I will tour some of its counties. I have found a hotel, which is a
haunted castle called Ballyseede Castle. I would like to spend a
night in this castle, but I am a bit worried about the hauntings at
this place. Do you think I should risk staying here for one night?
