Grammarly review

Being a writer myself, I know how errors creep inside text. You may not necessarily write bad grammar, but the desire to accomplish a specific deadline, or perhaps, a slip in concentration, can make grammatical errors slip through. It will certainly affect the content you create.

That was something, I encountered, often. And then I saw this advertisement about grammarly. At first, the ad clipping didn’t impress me. I gave a miss. But then, I would come across banner and the text ads often during my online browsing. During one such session, I decided to click through the ad, didn’t read too much. There was something that struck me, though, and during my third visit to the site, I lapped on to the idea of a free trial.

Why the best sites pay a premium to their writers

Online writing has reached a new high. It has come down to a point where writers now have to struggle hard to find sites that pay extremely well. There are numerous writing opportunities on sites such as Elance, or freelancer, but, unfortunately, the prices have come down recently. It’s hard to imagine writers having to write a piece of content for as little as $1.50 per 500 words.

It’s a shame that writing has just become a tool for creating back-links. Where are those original pieces, for which magazines are willing to pay a premium. What has been happening to the writing industry is hard to figure out. Where does all this lead to?

The Most Important U.S. Tax Filing Deadlines

The IRS publishes all filing deadlines in advance for the upcoming year, so you will always know which forms must be filed and when, and when payments must be made.

In the case of all mid-month (i.e., 15^th) dates, the deadline is extended to the next working day in the event that the 15^th falls on a weekend or a federal holiday.

If you are an employee only and do not own your own business, or rental real estate, or make a lot of money investing, then you may only need to know about the BIG ONE, April 15^th, when your personal income tax form is due.

Obesity in America

There has been a lot of talk gaining around and discussions taking place in the healthcare circles about the rise of obesity in the US. If you look at the stats showing the rise of obesity in the country, you will notice there are greater chances that the graph will perhaps show a further rise in the next decade or so. Some reports suggest that, in the next decade or two, 56% of American will be obese. Now, that’s something to think about as a nation.

When discussing obesity, you also need to understand its consequences as a whole. The growth in obesity could well mean the increase in obesity related diseases. There will be certain increase in the number of diabetes patients in the country. Heart attack and stroke could also be on the rise. There are fair chances of certain kinds of cancer strikes, along with gall bladder and liver diseases. Finally, obesity leads to pregnancy complications. That also means rising healthcare costs, something nobody wants in America at this moment.
