How to Completely Block Comment Spam in Your WordPress Blog?

The latest versions of WordPress installations come with Akismet, a spam-filtering plugin for WordPress. Akismet can be very useful especially in filtering spam comments containing numerous links, which are always a feature of spam messages. Unfortunately, it fails to do its job sometimes for flagging proper comments as spam. So it would be necessary to check the filtered spam for this error. Problems arise when you got a lot of spam, say hundreds or thousands, to review. It would take you a lot of time, or it maybe impossible for the blogger to finish checking all those spam.

Carol Kings
“Kay sigla ng gabi,
ang lahat ay kay saya.
Nagluto ang Ate
ng manok na tinola.
Sa bahay ng Kuya
ay mayroong litsunan pa.
Ang bawat tahanan,
may handang iba’t iba.”
The carolers at our neighborhood are usually little children rattling flattened bottle caps on a string of wire. Their pre-pubescent voices feel like barbed wire digging into flesh. The tone of the song is forgotten, replaced by a memorized sing-song monotone pitched at a volume that is meant to annoy, not to entertain. In our street, you pay carolers to shut up.
Office Prank
This is the funniest office prank I’ve seen. A fellow worker went on vacation and will return after Christmas, the boss and a co-worker wrapped everything on the guy’s cubicle with tin foil. And I mean everything! Scissors, monitor, chair, mouse, pen, everything!
Here are some pictures.

11 Simple Ways to Minimize Eye-Strain

Sitting several hours in front of your computers can be eye-straining. If you work at a computer for more then three hours a day you are likely to have symptoms of eye strain. This can be prevented however with these tips provided by Health 24:
1. Ensure that any close-up work or computer screen is not too close to your eyes. As a general rule, view material from as great a distance as possible, provided it can still be read easily.

On power and responsibility
“With great power comes great responsibility. This is my gift. This is my curse. Who am I?…”
No, I wasn’t thinking of being powerful because I am not. Neither that I am a superhero or something. Neither that I hold great power nor have control over certain things. I wasn’t thinking about being gifted because I am just as normal as the most of us.
I was just thinking about the current Philippine political scene. Of the so-called leaders who’s obsession with power is unsurmountable. Like vampires obsessed with blood.
