Home Medical Online Store

I believe that many of us have a first aid kit at home. This is very important especially if we have young children or older people in the family. If you do not have, then may I suggest that you start equipping your home with one?

I recently saw a few items that would be great to have on “standby” at home from a home medical online store and they are not even expensive at all but having them at home would save us a lot of hassle especially in case if a minor medical emergency that may call for immediate medical treatment until we have the chance to seek medical treatment.

Allegro Medical is a leading supplier of medical products, equipment and supplies and they are able to offer these at very competitive prices since they are passing the savings to us consumers. I checked and compared prices from a few places and I would have to say that Allegro Medical generally has some of the lowest prices.

Loving The New Akismet

Have you upgraded your Akismet plug-in? Well, I did recently just before I upgraded my WordPress and then changed to a new WordPress theme and I tell you, I am simply loving it.

For one, I no longer have to go though the few hundred spam comments anymore but just check out those direct comments. Who cares about the spam pings and track backs, right?

If you have not been seeing your comments on my blogs, it is because I do not have the time to sieve through them one by one until I get cross-eyed but now with the new Akismet, I will be taking the trouble to go though them. After all, for direct comments that are trapped by Akismet, there will not be that many.

Once again, I welcome your comments and you can be sure that you will see them published on my blogs again and not get deleted!

Malaysia Boleh on Technorati!

Did you notice two Malaysians on Technorati lately? Well, can’t say Malaysia TAK boleh, kan? There’s Chua Soi Lek, Chua Soi Lek Sex Video, Chua Soi Lek Sex Scandal, Chua Soi Lek DVD and many other variations and of course Advertlets. They even claimed the top spot for a few days.

Did you know that people from around the world are looking for the Chua Soi Lek Sex DVD. Aiya, I tell you, even if we have it, we would not be sharing it on our blogs lah. Wouldn’t that be madness now that the police are hot on the heels of the DVD distributors, sellers, owners and even “watchers”?

I find it very amusing that they don’t catch the PRODUCERS or the ACTORS but catch people who may have received them for free. From what I understand from newspapers, people were distributing them freely and stuffing them into the mailbox of homes and shops.

Ah… if anyone is caught with the DVD even though they were forced into their cars or homes, then bad luck loh… and good luck to you for possessing “obscene material”!

Beauty Jobs For You

Do you have faith that you will be able to look for that ideal job on an online job board? Speaking from experience and those of my friends, I would say that we have a better chance of finding it online that submitting applications the conventional way. At least, it saves us lots of time and we don’t even have to go knocking from door to door.

This morning, I was told of an online job board that has plenty of beauty jobs to pick and choose. This is because the board was set up by a beauty school for people in the beauty industry.

If you have are in the beauty business or own a beauty salon, for example, then you can offer jobs on this board for free. This is also the perfect place for people looking for beauty jobs. Of course, they would have to be skilled and professionally trained because beauty jobs are also as competitive as any other jobs!

Vedis Scratched My Back. Will You?

A couple of days after I implemented ScratchBack, Vedis, who occasionally comes to read my blogs, bought a slot from me. Thank you very much, Vedis. It’s cheap, only $2 and after giving the commission to ScratchBack and then PayPal, I am not sure how much I will be getting but then a little something extra will always add up.

ScratchBack provides good exposure for your blog or website but it is nofollow and while you will not be getting any link juice, it is not frown upon by the Search Engines.

I actually joined ScratchBack a long time ago but did not have the chance to implement the widget on my blog due to limitations of my old WordPress theme. The sidebar was not wide enough and I didn’t know if I could narrow down the widget but now that I have it on my blog, I hope that it will fill up soon. Hey, there are only FIVE slots…. :(

If you have the time, do give Vedis a visit. She has plenty of tips on how to save money and reduce your debt. She is speaking from experience!

Robots.txt

Yesterday, while blog hopping, I came across a blog article, I don’t even remember where anymore, that the author said that we should create a robots.txt and upload it in the root directory of our server and this will cause the search engines to better crawl our blog and hence would not return as many errors as a blog without the robots.txt file.

Some people who already did this have reported an increase in blog traffic and one person even says that his traffic went up by more than 11%. That’s a lot of traffic which I could certainly do with.

As you can tell, yes, I already included the robots.txt file to all my WordPress blogs which I also added in my sitemap and then submitted the file to my Google webmaster account.

Since doing this, I did not notice any increase in traffic specifically from the search engines and I haven’t found the time to check the status of this from my Google Webmaster account.

Let’s give it a week and see what happens. I hope I don’t have to mess with anything technical and just blog but then there are times when there’s a call to get my hands dirty. Bah!!!

Have You Heard of Kona Kava?

I was told of this super supplement drink and promptly forgot about it until my friend brought up the subject today. According to him, this is a very popular drink in Hawaii, and if not mistaken, in Fiji too! I think that Kona roots can grow naturally in islands and that’s why they are so popular.

I was told that by the nature of the soil, kona kava roots grow abundantly and make very nutritious coffee and the Hawaiian people are so industrious that they came up with many different types of supplements from the Kona Kava roots in the form of a drink, paste and even in capsule form.

If you have been wondering what type of coffee this is, you should check out the site of Kona Kava Farm. You will even be able to get kava kava recipes from the site besides reading more on the Kona Kava roots and extracts and how they are beneficial to our health.
