A Nice Story: What makes a good Manager?

One young academically excellent person went to apply for a managerial position in a big company. He passed the first interview; the director did the last interview. The director discovered from the CV that the youth’s academic achievements were excellent all the way, from the secondary school until the post graduate research, never had a year when he did not score

.The director asked, “Did you obtain any scholarships in school?”

The youth answered,”None.”

The director asked, “Was it your father who paid for your school fees?”

The youth answered,”My father passed away when I was one year old, it was my mother who paid for my school fees.”

The director asked, “Where did your mother work?”

The youth answered,”My mother worked as laundry woman.”

The director requested the youth to show his hands. The youth showed a pair of hands that were smooth and perfect.

The director asked, “Have you ever helped your mother wash the clothes before?”

The youth answered,”Never, my mother always wanted me to study and read more books. Furthermore, my mother can wash clothes faster than me.”

The director said, “I have a request. When you go back today, go and clean your mother’s hands, and then see me tomorrow morning.”

The youth felt that his chance of landing the job was high. When he went back, he happily requested his mother to let him clean her hands. His mother felt strange. Happy but with mixed feelings,she showed her hands to the young man.

The youth cleaned his mother’s hands slowly. His tear fell as he did that. It was the first time he noticed that his mother’s hands were so wrinkled, and there were so many bruises in her hands. Some bruises were so painful that his mother shivered when they were cleaned with water.

This was the first time the youth realized that it was this pair of hands that washed the clothes everyday to enable him to pay the school fee. The bruises in the mother’s hands were the price that the mother had to pay for his graduation, academic excellence and his future.

After finishing the cleaning of his mother’s hands, the youth quietly washed all the remaining clothes for his mother.

That night, mother and son talked for a very long time.

Next morning, the youth went to the director’s office.

The Director noticed the tears in the youth’s eyes, asked: “Can you tell me what have you done and learned yesterday in your house?”

The youth answered, “Icleaned my mother’s hands and also finished cleaning all the remaining clothes.”

The Director asked, “Please tell me your feelings.”

The youth said:

1. I know now what appreciation is. Without my mother, there would not have been the successful me today.

2. By working together and helping my mother, only now I realize how difficult and tough it is to get something done.

3. I have come to appreciate the importance and value of family relationships.

The director said, “This is what I am looking for to be my manager. I want to recruit a person who can appreciate the help of others, a person who knows the sufferings of others to get things done, and a person who would not put money as his only goal in life.You are hired.”

Later on, this young person worked very hard and received the respect of his subordinates. Every employee worked diligently and as a team. The company’s performance improved tremendously.

Something to think about:

A child, who has been protected and habitually given whatever he wanted, will develop an “entitlement mentality” and will always put himself first. Hewill beignorant of his parent’s efforts. When he starts work, he will assume that every person must listen to him, and when he becomes a manager, he will never know the sufferings of his employees and will always blame others.

For this kind of a person, who may be good academically and maybe successful for a while, eventually he will not feel sense of achievement. He will grumble and be full of hatred and fight for more. If we are this kind of protective parents, are we really showing love or are we destroying our children instead?

You can let your children live in a big house, eat a good meal, learn piano, watch a big screen TV. But when you are cutting grass, please let them experience it.

After a meal, let them wash their plates and bowls together with their brothers and sisters. It is not because you do not have money to hire a maid. You want them to understand, no matter how rich their parents are, one day their hair will grow gray, same as the mother of that young person.

The most important things are that your children learn how to appreciate the effort and experience the difficulty and learn how to work with others to get things done.

Oral Sex: What Do Women Like?

I’ve had my share of conversations with women regarding how they prefer their reception of oral sex and although I cannot speak for all women, this article will certainly be speaking for most.

If you’ve always wanted to know how you’re doing in the “cunning linguist” department, today’s your lucky day. I know it’s difficult when your partner doesn’t let you in on what you’re doing right or wrong. It sometimes feels as though you’re venturing into a shady area where you don’t have a clue as to what your partner might be feeling.But not to worry gentlemen, I am here to help you further your mastery of the mystery that is the vagina. If you’ve ever asked yourself the following questions, here I am to answer them for you.
how important is oral sex?
As I’ve informed readers over and over again, all women are different and so the level of importance regarding cunnilingus differs as well. But from what most women tell me, oral sex, if done right, becomes a very important aspect of sexual encounters.How do you feel about fellatio? That’s what I thought. But if your woman bit and chewed your penis every time she went down on you, you wouldn’t be too thrilled about her mutilating your penis whenever she decided to give you your “treat,” now would you?

The same applies for women; if you’re horrible at it, she may decide that oral sex isn’t that important, especially if you’re great in other venues. But if you’re the master of her castor, then she’ll be coming round the mountain when she comes.

Most of the women I ask about cunnilingus get this weird, elated look on their faces just before they let out a sigh and say, “oh, it’s very important.” There’s nothing quite like the feel of a warm, wet tongue against the vulva, I always say.
is oral better than sex?
Now there’s a question that’s difficult to get a handle on. Most women would say that both elements of sex are important, but then again, many women say that they only reach orgasm via oral sex. But the combination of both oral sex and intercourse is definitely awesome.

A lot of women reveal that the penis is a pretty straightforward tool, but the tongue can manipulate the vagina and the clitoris in a variety of ways. Think about it; our vaginas have holes with which you can insert your penis rhythmically — our mouths are holes as well, yes, but there’s that tongue attached to it and the tongue can manipulate your penis in ways you never imagined. You do the math.

And depending on the performer, oral sex can leave a woman weak and shaking. And if you’re the type of guy who throws his fingers into the mix, then chances are you’re the master of her domain.

So what do women like when guys go down on them?

What do women like?

So how can you perform oral sex in a way that’ll make her toes curl and have her digging her nails into the bed? That’s easy:

Tease first: Don’t just head straight for the vagina. Tease your woman by kissing the inside of her thighs, her hips and her belly button. Let your tongue brush up against the vaginal area, but don’t start licking and sucking right away. Give her time to get wet and make her beg if you have the stamina.

Enjoy yourself: If you’re having a good time down there, it will help her feel comfortable about your being there. Most women are somewhat neurotic about smelling and tasting good so if you love it down there, she’ll know you enjoy the flavor.

Move slowly: Spending more than 30 seconds down there is also nice. Taking your sweet time to inhale the bouquet and taste every section of the vagina is appreciated.

Stimulate the clitoris: Licking and lightly sucking the clitoris and its hood are much appreciated since the area rarely receives attention amid intercourse. As well, many women achieve clitoral orgasm much more easily than they do vaginal or G-spot ones.

Penetrate with tongue: There’s nothing quite like the feeling of a hardened tongue penetrating the throbbing lips of a woman (you know which ones I’m talking about). Take your time and explore the entire area with your mouth.

Massage the outer lips: While you’re using your tongue to suck and lick her vulva and clitoris, use your thumbs to massage her outer lips, pulling them apart and pushing them together gently. This will drive her crazy.

Use your fingers: If you can gently suck on her clitoris for a while and then use your fingers to penetrate her, chances are her legs will start trembling. Before long, she’ll be begging for a piece of your penis. As well, you can simultaneously massage her clitoris with your fingers while your mouth is sucking on it.

Use a pillow: Place a pillow under her butt so that her vagina is in a position where you can easily enjoy your meal.

Massage her nipples: Many women enjoy having their nipples stimulated. So while your mouth is busy down there, use your fingers to massage her nipples and caress her breasts.

Say something: Hearing a man moan while he’s eating his woman lets her know that he loves what he’s doing. Saying something like, “I’ve been dying to taste you all day” or “you taste so good” will only make her more comfortable and prepared to show you the big O.

Suck, then penetrate: To stop in the middle of intercourse to taste her is a grand turn-on. Every now and then, stop the penetration to go down on her. You’ll shock her with pleasure.

Use mints: Whether it’s a “curiously strong mint” or a Halls cough drop, menthol can work wonders and enhance the sexual experience like you wouldn’t believe. And when you’re done, you can let her try it out on you.

Hummer: Okay, not every woman loves this, but many do. When you place your lips over her clitoris, hum lightly — you’ll know instantly if she’s enjoying it.

And of course, there is an abundance of things you should avoid doing at all costs..

And as always, there are certain actions you should steer clear of at all costs.

Bad reaction: Saying things like “man, you smell!” or “did you shower today?” are not recommended. Not only will she feel bad, she’ll lose that sexual mood.

Don’t insist: If she’s not fresh, don’t insist on going downtown on her. Most women prefer being freshly showered before they let their men venture down there. Respect that, even if you have a thing for stronger odors.

Keep nails trim: Make sure your nails are trim and your hands are clean. The vagina is a very sensitive area so be cautious.

Don’t go faster: Women’s biggest complaint by far begins once they get very sexually aroused by what you’re doing. Men take their moaning as a signal that they should move their mouth and tongue as fast as humanly possible. This only serves to make your woman numb. If she moans, keep up the same tempo unless she indicates otherwise.

It’s not a lollipop: When you lick her clitoris, don’t look up at her with every swipe as if to ask, “Was that okay?” Practice, take your time and enjoy your moment of intimacy with her vagina. You’ll know when she’s enjoying it.

No enthusiasm: If your girlfriend performed fellatio with no fervor and even gagged on occasion, you wouldn’t enjoy it. Show some enthusiasm when you’re down there.

No limits: You don’t have to restrict yourself to the clitoris and vulva; relish the vagina in its entirety. And if you and she are the bold types, you can explore her backside with your tongue and/or fingers as well.

Don’t blow air inside her: Believe it or not, blowing air directly into the vulva can seriously harm a woman. Do not, under any circumstances, do it.

Bargaining chip: “I went down on you, now you have to go down on me.” Come on guys, you have to acquire a taste for your woman’s genitals. Learn to love and enjoy the area without keeping a mental scorecard.

But my ex liked this: Like I already mentioned, all women are different. So if you go down on a new partner, assume that she might not like what your last woman did. Start out slow, that’s your safest bet.
practice makes perfect
Enjoying the taste and aroma of your woman should be a given. Couples should try to experience everything together when it comes to lovemaking. Don’t limit yourself; expose yourself to the acts you’re somewhat apprehensive about, namely oral sex.

If you want to be an amazing lover, then you need to take on her vagina with more than just your penis. Take the time to learn about her body and enjoy it slowly. Then you can give her what you want, one inch at a time.

Oh and always play it safe.

Good Samaritans in the New World

I am just sharing this picture of a very humble guy named ROLDAN JIMENEZ PINEDA, 63yrs old, from Isabela.

Here’s what happened:
Just this windy and rainy morning, I was in my friend’s canteen. It is just beside the subdivision where I live. I was chatting with my friend’s dad about some business. This humble guy came in front caught my attention. He was not asking for money nor anything. Instead, he ordered P5 worth of rice. He cannot even look directly because he feels so shy.He said, “Maaari po bang bumili ng limang pisong kanin?” His hair is so wet that’s why he covered it with a small towel. His clothes are kinda wet too. When I heard his shaking voice, I can feel that he is tired, cold, and starving. He has a green backpack and a sack with old boxes and plastic bottles. I suddenly felt sorry about him, that my heart was telling me that I need to do something. Instead of me just sitting on my chair, I decided to stand up and tried talking to him. I asked him if that small amount of rice would satisfy him. He said that he was planning to eat some of it and save some, then continue walking til he reach Nueva Ecija which is more than a hundred miles I think. His destination would be Isabela, where he lives. He asked if he can fill his bottle with some water. I said, sure. While I was putting water in his used old bottle, I told him to order some more food so he can eat. Told him not to worry because I will pay it for him. Mang Roldan never asks for money. He earns his own by selling bottles at the junk shops. His eyes turned red, while he was trying to hold his tears. He said that he can’t thank me enough.

MANG ROLDAN: Nahihiya po ako kasi ganito lang suot ko.
ME: Akong bahala po sainyo. Ano pong gusto nyong kainin?
MANG ROLDAN: Wala po ako sa posisyon para pumili. Kahit gulay lang po o yung pinakamura.
ME: Kailangan nyo pong kumain. Order po kayo kahit ano, yung siguradong mabubusog kayo.

I took his hand so he can walk beside the stand where he can choose. While they were giving him his food, I told him that I need to go home and get some money so I can pay his bill. At home, I grabbed my old camouflage jacket which I gave him.
We talked about his tragic story and his plans. Years ago, he needed to sell their house and lot because his wife had a bone disease. Sadly, everything was spent but his wife didn’t make it. He had 3 children. The first born were twins, died because of bronchopneumonia. While the youngest was ran over by a bus. He tried putting a small business by selling fishballs in Manila, but in the time of Bayani Fernando, MMDA took his carts and destroyed them. Mang Roldan and his family are church people. You can tell with the way he speaks. He visited Pampanga to see his sister/brother. Too bad he wasn’t able to meet the only family that he knows. Hearing his story broke my heart.

I also noticed that he cannot walk straight because of his swollen left leg. “Lumipad yung bato na nadaanan nung gulong ng jeep, tumama sa paa ko” he said. He thanked me for the food and jacket. I handed him some money so he can ride the bus and buy food. He said that he cannot give me anything in return. Seeing him wipe his tears made me feel super sad that it made me cry too. I was speechless. I shaked his hand and told him that his story was enough for me to learn things, and I was happy that I was able to help him. I gave him my umbrella so he will not get wet on his journey. He didn’t want to take it, but I insisted. (I hope my mom won’t notice that her umbrella is missing)

While Mang Roldan was crossing the street I was looking at him. I noticed that he was walking towards a corner. He saw a beggar on the side. You know what he did? He did not share the food that he had, HE GAVE EVERYTHING! Rice, bread, and water. That’s it! That was priceless! I knew that this man is special. He touched my heart. I realized that what I gave him is not even enough. Salt water fell from my eyes. (even while I’m typing now). I decided to go to him when I noticed that busses and jeepneys were not stopping because of discrimination. So we waited for a bus and I took his picture. He smiled and said, “half-body lang ha, nakakahiya may dala akong sako. Hehehe!” What a guy! He can still smile after all the things that he went through. Finally, a bus stopped. I told him to act as if he is my uncle. Before he stepped on the bus, he thanked me again. I waved goodbye and said “Ingat Tito, text mo ko kaagad.” I said it loud so the conductor will hear me.
I don’t know, but he was like an angel that was sent to teach me and realize lots of things. That is why I decided to put it on FB, hoping that you will learn from it. If only I am wealthy enough, I would love to do more things just to help more needy, homeless, poor, deserving people. I also hope I could meet Mang Roldan again, and give him a fishball business or have him help me helping others.

I remember a book written by Father Jerry Orbos, that we should not be just good Samaritans but we need to be Better Samaritans.

You can share this if you want. If not, just please pray that God bless the people like Mang Roldan. May God Bless you too =)

Teach Kids to Love Math

Math is not the best loved subject in schools. Studies made by Herbert P. Ginsburg of Columbia University, showed that the parents and teachers’ attitudes has a big impact and influence with the “child’s expectations in the (sic) area of learning.”

But how do we encourage children to practice their mathematical skill if teachers rely heavily on textbooks? Teachers, according to Thornton & Wilson, are the key figures in changing how mathematics is learned and understood (1993, p.273)

First, teachers need to understand what motivates and how they view math affects the way they teach it. The National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) suggests teachers to find ways or methods that help lessen anxiety or make mathematics an interesting subject. Suggestion includes the following:

1. Accommodating for different learning styles

2. Creating a variety of testing environments

3. Designing positive experiences in math classes

4. Refraining from tying self-esteem to success with math

5. Emphasizing that everyone makes mistakes in mathematics

6. Making math relevant

7. Allow students to have some input into their own evaluations

8. Allowing for different social approaches to learning mathematics

9. Emphasizing the importance of original, quality thinking rather than rote manipulation of formulas.

Every child is unique and each has its own way of learning.  What are the different learning types? Some kids learn things visually (Visual learners), others are auditory learners, kinesthetic learner  – likes to move around & touch objects (Dunn and Dunn model). Teachers may find this challenging but it allows teachers to become creative in their teaching methods.

It is also important to understand that using teaching methods that provides a positive experience in Math classes makes kids enjoy learning it.  Teachers should refrain from equating one’s self-esteem to getting the right answer in Math. The idea is to allow students to discover the solution by themselves and have an environment that does not criticize kids when they commit errors or mistakes.

Arthur J. Baroody states that a key aspect to building positive view towards mathematics is to foster constructive and reasonable beliefs in learning math. Resources like the ones written by Mitsumas Anno (Anno’s Math Games 1987) provides alternative ways in making mathematics a fun way for children to look at situations in various perspectives.

Going back to first part of this article, teacher’ motivation and attitude or belief directly affects students’ interest in learning. Even the best creative teaching methods and creative teaching environment has less effect if teachers’ attitude and belief does not motivate students to value mathematics. How teachers’ respond to students’ who commit errors will either increase or impede the interest for learning math.

Monique Boekaert, wrote Motivation to Learn said that, “It is often stated that bad teaching kills motivation and that good teaching brings out the best in students of all ages.”  The best way to encourage children to learn math is to keep them motivated to learn. Keeping kids motivated to learn mathematics entails not only the best and creative teaching method. Teachers must keep themselves motivated to teach and encourage the children to learn.

The Story of Kyle!

One day, when I was a freshman in high school, I saw a kid from my class walking home from school. His name was Kyle. It looked like he was carrying all of his books. I thought to myself, “Why would anyone bring home all his books on a Friday? He must really be a nerd.”

I had quite a weekend planned (parties and a football game with my friends tomorrow afternoon), so I shrugged my shoulders and went on. As I was walking, I saw a bunch of kids running toward him. They ran at him, knocking all his books out of his arms and tripping him so he landed in the dirt. His glasses went flying, and I saw them land in the grass about ten feet from him. He looked up, and I saw this terrible sadness in his eyes.

My heart went out to him. So I jogged over to him, and as he crawled around looking for his glasses, I saw a tear in his eye. As I handed him his glasses, I said, “Those guys are jerks. They really should get lives.” He looked at me and said, “Hey thanks!” There was a big smile on his face. It was one of those smiles that showed real gratitude.

<br.

I helped him pick up his books and asked him where he lived. As it turned out, he lived near me, so I asked him why I had never seen him before. He said he had gone to private school before now. I would have never hung out with a private school kid before, but we talked all the way home, and I carried his books.

He turned out to be a pretty cool kid. I asked him if he wanted to play football on Saturday with me and my friends. He said yes.

We hung out all weekend, and the more I got to know Kyle, the more I liked him. And my friends thought the same of him. Monday morning came, and there was Kyle with the huge stack of books again. I stopped him and said, “Boy, you are gonna really build some serious muscles with this pile of books everyday!” He just laughed and handed me half the books.

Over the next four years, Kyle and I became best friends. When we were seniors, we began to think about college. Kyle decided on Georgetown, and I was going to Duke. I knew that we would always be friends, that the miles would never be a problem. He was going to be a doctor, and I was going for business on a football scholarship.

Kyle was valedictorian of our class. I teased him all the time about being a nerd. He had to prepare a speech for graduation. I was so glad it wasn’t me having to get up there and speak.

On graduation day, I saw Kyle. He looked great. He was one of those guys that really found himself during high school. He filled out and actually looked good in glasses. He had more dates than me and all the girls loved him! Boy, sometimes I was jealous. Today was one of those days. I could see that he was nervous about his speech, so I smacked him on the back and said, “Hey, big guy, you’ll be great!” He looked at me with one of those looks (the really grateful one) and smiled. “Thanks,” he said.

As he started his speech, he cleared his throat, and began. “Graduation is a time to thank those who helped you make it through those tough years. Your parents, your teachers, your siblings, maybe a coach — but mostly your friends. I am here to tell all of you that being a friend to someone is the best gift you can give them. I am going to tell you a story.” I just looked at my friend with disbelief as he told the story of the first day we met. He had planned to kill himself over the weekend. He talked of how he had cleaned out his locker so his mom wouldn’t have to do it later and was carrying his stuff home. He looked hard at me and gave me a little smile. “Thankfully, I was saved. My friend saved me from doing the unspeakable.”

I heard the gasp go through the crowd as this handsome, popular boy told us all about his weakest moment. I saw his mom and dad looking at me and smiling that same grateful smile. Not until that moment did I realize its depth.

Never underestimate the power of your actions. With one small gesture, you can change a person’s life.

Yes, I Gas Dogs and Cats for a Living. (WARNING:VERY SAD BUT WORTH READING from Facebook)

“Yes, I Gas Dogs and Cats for a Living. I’m an Animal Control officer in a very small town in central North Carolina. I’m in my mid thirties, and have been working for the town in different positions since high school.
There is not much work here, and working for the county provides good pay and benefits for a person like me without a higher education. I’m the person you all write about how horrible I am.

I’m the one that gasses the dogs and cats and makes them suffer. I’m the one that pulls their dead corpses out smelling of Carbon Monoxide and throws them into green plastic bags. But I’m also the one that hates my job and hates what I have to do.

First off, all you people out there that judge me, don’t. God is judging me, and I know I’m going to Hell. Yes, I’m going to hell. I wont lie, it’s despicable, cold, cruel and I feel like a serial killer. I’m not all to blame, if the law would mandate spay and neuter, lots of these dogs and cats wouldn’t be here for me to gas. I’m the devil, I know it, but I want you people to see that there is another side to me the devil Gas Chamber man.
The shelter usually gasses on Friday morning.

Friday’s are the day that most people look forward to, this is the day that I hate, and wish that time will stand still on Thursday night. Thursday night, late, after nobody’s around, my friend and I go through a fast food line, and buy 50 dollars worth of cheeseburgers and fries, and chicken. I’m not allowed to feed the dogs on Thursday, for I’m told that they will make a mess in the gas chamber, and why waste the food.
So, Thursday night, with the lights still closed, I go into the saddest room that anyone can every imagine, and let all the doomed dogs out out their cages

I have never been bit, and in all my years doing this, the dogs have never fought over the food. My buddy and I, open each wrapper of cheeseburger and chicken sandwich, and feed them to the skinny, starving dogs.

They swallow the food so fast, that I don’t believe they even taste it. There tails are wagging, and some don’t even go for the food, they roll on their backs wanting a scratch on their bellys. They start running, jumping and kissing me and my buddy. They go back to their food, and come back to us. All their eyes are on us with such trust and hope, and their tails wag so fast, that I have come out with black and blues on my thighs.. They devour the food, then it’s time for them to devour some love and peace. My buddy and I sit down on the dirty, pee stained concrete floor, and we let the dogs jump on us. They lick us, they put their butts in the air to play, and they play with each other. Some lick each other, but most are glued on me and my buddy.

I look into the eyes of each dog. I give each dog a name.

They will not die without a name.

I give each dog 5 minutes of unconditional love and touch.

I talk to them, and tell them that I’m so sorry that tomorrow they will die a gruesome, long, torturous death at the hands of me in the gas chamber.

Some tilt their heads to try to understand.

I tell them, that they will be in a better place, and I beg them not to hate me.
I tell them that I know I’m going to hell, but they will all be playing with all the dogs and cats in heaven.
After about 30 minutes, I take each dog individually, into their feces filled concrete jail cell, and pet them and scratch them under their chins. Some give me their paw, and I just want to die. I just want to die. I close the jail cell on each dog, and ask them to forgive me. As my buddy and I are walking out, we watch as every dog is smiling at us and them don’t even move their heads. They will sleep, with a full belly, and a false sense of security.
As we walk out of the doomed dog room, my buddy and I go to the cat room.

We take our box, and put the very friendly kittens and pregnant cats in our box.
The shelter doesn’t keep tabs on the cats, like they do the dogs.

As I hand pick which cats are going to make it out, I feel like I’m playing God, deciding whose going to live and die.
We take the cats into my truck, and put them on blankets in the back.

Usually, as soon as we start to drive away, there are purring cats sitting on our necks or rubbing against us.
My buddy and I take our one way two hour trip to a county that is very wealthy and they use injection to kill animals.
We go to exclusive neighborhoods, and let one or two cats out at a time.

They don’t want to run, they want to stay with us. We shoo them away, which makes me feel sad.
I tell them that these rich people will adopt them, and if worse comes to worse and they do get put down, they will be put down with a painless needle being cradled by a loving veterinarian. After the last cat is free, we drive back to our town.

It’s about 5 in the morning now, about two hours until I have to gas my best friends.

I go home, take a shower, take my 4 anti-anxiety pills and drive to work.. I don’t eat, I can’t eat. It’s now time, to put these animals in the gas chamber. I put my ear plugs in, and when I go to the collect the dogs, the dogs are so excited to see me, that they jump up to kiss me and think they are going to play.

I put them in the rolling cage and take them to the gas chamber. They know. They just know. They can smell the death.. They can smell the fear. They start whimpering, the second I put them in the box. The boss tells me to squeeze in as many as I can to save on gas. He watches. He knows I hate him, he knows I hate my job. I do as I’m told. He watches until all the dogs, and cats (thrown in together) are fighting and screaming. The sounds is very muffled to me because of my ear plugs. He walks out, I turn the gas on, and walk out.

I walk out as fast as I can. I walk into the bathroom, and I take a pin and draw blood from my hand. Why? The pain and blood takes my brain off of what I just did.

In 40 minutes, I have to go back and unload the dead animals. I pray that none survived, which happens when I overstuff the chamber. I pull them out with thick gloves, and the smell of carbon monoxide makes me sick. So does the vomit and blood, and all the bowel movements. I pull them out, put them in plastic bags.

They are in heaven now, I tell myself. I then start cleaning up the mess, the mess, that YOU PEOPLE are creating by not spay or neutering your animals. The mess that YOU PEOPLE are creating by not demanding that a vet come in and do this humanely. You ARE THE TAXPAYERS, DEMAND that this practice STOP

So, don’t call me the monster, the devil, the gasser, call the politicians, the shelter directors, and the county people the devil. Heck, call the governor, tell him to make it stop.

As usual, I will take sleeping pills tonight to drown out the screams I heard in the past, before I discovered the ear plugs. I will jump and twitch in my sleep, and I believe I’m starting to hallucinate.

This is my life. Don’t judge me. Believe me, I judge myself enough. ”

Everyone needs to know this.

There are many debates on the issue of protecting the global environment, but the issue that comes up in most conversations is climate changes or what is commonly known as global warming. Whether it is man-made, a natural occurance or both, there are effects within earth’s environment that comes with global warming.

With climate changes continually happening, environmental facts are to be considered when changing human habits and wildlife habitats. It is becoming more common for communities to be aware of the endless changing global environment to better prepare humans and wildlife for a better way of life on this planet.

There is much talk about how global warming is caused. There are some scientists and environmentalists who believe that it is strictly a natural process and there are those who have theories that man is the cause for the rise in the earth’s temperature. However, there are scientists who…

You will get a massive collection bonus because decorations multiply income. If you aren’t using decorations, you are missing out on one of the most profitable aspects of the game.

NEIGHBORS TIP

Getting a lot of neighbors is crucial in Cityville. You can setup headquarters in their cities, and kindly ask them to send you batteries. If none of your friends are interested in Cityville, try joining a Cityville forum.

LAYOUT IS EVERYTHING

The rate of your success is going to greatly depend on your city layout. At the beggining of the game, your red barn starts next to the road. What is the point of that? Save your space next to the road for business and stores. Franchise HQ’s do not need roads to work. Community buildings also not preform any better next to a road. I will be talking about a complete layout guide later in this article.

ENERGY GUIDE

To get energy you can do any of the following:

• Wait.
• Buy batteries.
• Visit Friends (once again, get lots of neighbors).
• Get friends to “gift” you with batteries.
• Collections.
• Level up.

ULTIMATE SECRETS GUIDE

The all around best “cheat for this game is to get a complete walk-through guide. I have found a great one for you that gives you information needed for maximum profits, and the perfect layout. This is the guide I used to get to level 46, and I will be 50 soon! Click the image below to learn more.

1. Carbohydrate- Contrary to popular belief this is the primary source of fuel your muscles are crying for after a workout to restore glycogen reserves to the cells. Complex carbohydrate in the form of oatmeal, sprouted grain toast or a low-sugar granola bar is a good energy source to have on hand immediately following an intense workout.

1. Eggs- With 6 grams of protein, omega 3 fatty acids, and a full spectrum of B vitamins, free range eggs are just about the perfect food for repairing muscle and feeding the brain any time of day, especially post exercise.
