The paths of stars

Jerry Lai @transcendent (709) • Xian, China 17 May 16

The paths of stars can be very attractive. You are unlikely to notice it with your eyes only, but you would get it if you have a digital camera. On a cloudless night before the moon rose in the sky, I took my SLR digital camera...

Whenever an employee resigns from a company,frustrated and disgruntled the most obvious reason is that they are frustrated of their managers. Because managers are the ones to carry the face of the company before the employee. They...

Amanda Tucker I think it is also the frustration that comes from being one of the "worker ants" that is doing the hard work while the manager gets the credit.

Siblings. Is this normal?

Indradi Akmam @Ianist (278) • Indonesia 17 May 16

My family and I are normal, but not that close to each other. I'm the youngest of 3 children. My sister is 6 years older than me and my brother is 9 years older than me. In the house or in the car, we usually never talk to each...

Amanda Tucker I am honestly an only child but I have half and step-siblings that I never really talk to as an adult. So I guess that it is normal not to be able to talk to each other much.

Osei Enoch @Facevalue1987 (9) • Accra, Ghana 24 Nov 15

Amanda Tucker There is another theory that natural disaster's occur in order to keep the balance. Higher population, higher chances of strains of bacteria strengthening in order to kill off a percent. Higher population, more deaths from pollution. Etc... Nature will keep it...

Dogs

Rushi Ambildhok @Rushi27 (45) • Pune, India 18 Nov 15

Amanda Tucker I really wish that were the case. However, religion is not the culprit. Mankind's interpretation and manipulation of their beliefs is.

How do you feel about Paris attack? I'm still shocked.

Freeny @Freeny (53) • Australia 18 Nov 15

I've never been to Paris but it was on my ''to see'' list since I was a teenager. I'm still shocked what happened there and I can't understand why these terrorists seek innocence's blood this much. I pray to God for people who...

Which are the Biggest Rip-Off Consumer Products?

EugenesDIYDen @EugenesDDen (310) • Ireland 18 Nov 15

Cosmetics, sports goods, toiletries, medication? Expensive medication is somewhat understandable because of the need to recover research costs and make a profit, but what about the others?

Amanda Tucker Anything you buy is kind of wasteful. There is really no reason why you can't make products cheaper by taking away the fancy looking plastic wrappings.

Video Games

Amal Shah @Senzokai (4) • Mumbai, India 15 Nov 15

I was an avid gamer until a year back when my Alienware M11X finally breathed its last. Many of you would be surprised it ran that long. I used to download many games, play them and then delete them. The Assassin's Creed series,...
