Pond stocking tip #2 & 3: Trophy bass and Muddy ponds

without comments

Did you know when stocking a pond, you’ll want to stock five Bluegill for every Largemouth Bass. This will help you grow trophy Bass.

To clear up a muddy pond use liquid Aluminum Sulfate (Alum) and Agriculture lime. This will remove the suspended solids in your pond. Application rate may very, but about ten gallons per surface acre and two hundred pounds of lime per surface acre should do the trick. Alum can be purchased at your local water treatment supply store.

Comment system SezWho

with 2 comments

I have decided to finally try out and add the blog commenting system SezWho. It basically gives a rating to the comments people leave and allows you, the reader, to vote the comment’s relevance. It also adds a voting system to the posts as well. (Not sure if I’ll leave that operational for the network)

Using SezWho also gives you a profile. It shows who you have commented, the quality of your comments, and links to your blog. In a way, it’s a cool incentive to add for people to leave better comments. As of today, I received an email announcing the partnership of SezWho and Entrecard. As you know, I use Entrecard on a select few of our blogs. I will be expanding the use of it and adding SezWho to every blog. The partnership allows you to get credits for leaving comments now. Its something that I give high praise to. Before this partnership, Entrecard gave you traffic but it was a quick click through that didn’t really benefit the blog. I look forward to working with this system and to see the results of this new partnership.

Just for the record..

without comments

I wanted to clarify something about a follow up comment I received. On my post regarding borderline personality disorder, I do not personally have this. I am in psychology and was writing ABOUT the issue. I received a comment of sympathy for my “condition”. I am just fine and have not been diagnosed with this disorder. In any case, I do want to thank my readers for the comments you send in. If you post them on this blog or any other blog in the blog network, I thank you. It’s almost like a pat on the back saying, “job well done”. So keep sending them in, entertain me or my other authors, and please please don’t assume I have the disorders I write about. :)

Payday loans

without comments

Here is why you should get a cash advance to pay those extra timely expenses instead of charging it to the credit card. Don’t use a credit card for anything if you are paying over 25% interest. That’s basically handing the bank your wallet. A payday loan can easily cover your bills and expenses while you are in between paychecks. Don’t get caught in the credit card trap. How do cash advances work?

First of all, you have to be holding a current job and earning at least one thousand dollars each month. Secondly, you have to be a United States citizen and have a bank account. Thirdly, you have to be over 18 years old. Knowing that you meet these qualifications and are getting paid in a couple of weeks, payday loan companies will give you the cash you need before your paycheck arrives. That’s a life saver sometimes when there is that odd bill to pay or an unexpected bill that arises. You pick the time and you make the call. You have complete control over when you are paid. It’s as simple as that.

These people will get your back when the time comes. Always remember to borrow responsibly and keep your borrowing at a minimum.
