My answer would be: It depends. If good spelling is essential for doing the work in a good way a habit of bad spelling can be a reason to be fired. On the other hand, if the owner of the company knew that the future employee is bad at spelling and the owner hires the new employee anyways it gets a bit more difficult to say that the lack of spelling skills is a reason to fire somebody.If somebody is not able to work with a spelling control program there is more reason to fire somebody. But the reason would be a complete lack and failure of using a common computer program.And if somebody refuses to use an easy grammar school book and a dictionary to look up the spelling of the words then there can be a lack of dedication to the job. And if somebody refuses to use a grammar teaching book and a dictionary after being told several times to improve the spelling quality of the produced pieces of text somebody can be hard headed and unable to understand the own skills. So in both cases the lack of having a good idea about the self can be a reason to loose the worker.When the problem is giving not enough attention to the spelling of the text everybody experiences this. That is not a speciality at all. Probably everybody who sends emails, writes texts and sends messages on the internet makes mistakes. It should make somebody proud to try as much as almost possible to produce almost perfect spelled texts and emails. A way to learn the own skills is to read back the texts and the emails the next day. This makes clear if enough attention is given to the spelling of the words.And being a poor speller is a reason to get treated in a degrading manner. Because probably everybody can give some more attention to the spelling of the words. The problem is not the lack of spelling skills. The problem is that there is a lack of dedication to be a more or less perfect speller.If the problem seems to be very big and if the fear of getting fired gets impressive it can be necessary to start to look for ways to solve the problem. A talk with the boss can be a start. If the boss mentioned it twice there can be a reason to have a conversation about it. Maybe the company is able to pay for a spelling course. Maybe the company can provide dictionaries. The good point will be that you show that you care and that you are willing to listen to your boss and that you try to improve. That is more important than delivering excellent and mistake free texts and emails. Although the attitude that you are willing to do your best to produce mistake free texts is important. It shows that you care about the way the customer thinks about the company. Because the problem is not your spelling skills. The problem is the bad impression a poorly spelled email, message and text makes to the customer. So if you show that you care about that the problem is half solved.

The best way to get a lot of xistodollars on your account very fast is to start a lot of topics by yourself. It takes way too much time to look for a topic of somebody else to reply to. And it takes too much time and it needs too much attention to read the start post topic of somebody else and to read the posts of other people. This time can be better used by starting your own topic and typing your own topic start.Topics that are usefull can be like subjects about your hobby, something that interests you or something you read in the news paper.Pictures and videos seem to deliver a high rate of MyCents.Information about almost any subject can be easily found on wikipedia.Another fruitfull way is to join somebody else. The answers and replies of positive people who like to add something usefull to the topic can help to give new inspiration for a long reply. Since these people are very rare in forums you should try to be one yourself and be very carefull when you found somebody else who likes to add to your topics.Trying to react to people who like to troll is a waist of time. This time can be used much better in typing information about interesting topics and subjects you like yourself to tell about. And it is in vain to think that the things you type will change the attitude of the troll. The best way is to ignore the messages and the posts of the troll. The most used advice on the internet is: Don't feed the troll. This means that answering to the troll gives the troll the more reasons to go on with its boring trolling.The pleasure of being a member and adding content to this forum and earning a website and maybe a domaine name by posting is much higher when the focus is on joyfull subjects and friendly and helpfull members who like to help you and themselves to get the MyCents streaming in.

Another opinion is that it is possible to compare Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7.Advantages of Windows 7 are probably a higher speed and a very shiny look of the screen.And Windows 7 is designed for an SSD.Windows 7 has trim built in. This means the speed of the SSD keeps high over time.

The percentage of millionairs in the United States of America is said to be 1% of the population. Since there are about 300,000,000 persons living in the United States this would mean there are about 3,000,000 millionairs in the United States. But this doesn't match the numbers of other researches and inquireis. Other researchers mention a number of 7 million millionaires. The most billionaires live in New York. There are 10 million millionaires in the world. This means that 1/3 of the millionaires to 7/10 of the millionaires live in the United States. 10 million is 0,2% of the population of the world of 5 billion. Another source mentions a percentage of 0,15% of the world population.

Japan's Road To War Why did the initiate World War II?
Eza replied to Adell's topic in General Discussion
Perspectives A theory about history says that history and historical events are more easy to understand when the different perspectives of the individual participators are taken in consideration. When the topic start speaks about Western powers it might help to understand the events and the motivations looking at them from the perspective of the people who acted and of the people who used motivations to act the way they did. It is possible to divide between the United States of America and some of the European countries. The attack of Japan of Pearl Harbor was probably supported by a lot of people in Japan, including scientists. One of the reasons seems to have been indeed to fight back against the American attempts to influence other cultures of other countries. Those attempts and the influence on the own culture are and were considered to threaten the own culture of some countries. The empirialistic politics of the USA was seen like polluting the Japanese culture. An attack seemed to be the only way to protect the precious Japanese culture. Japan had gained lots of experience with warfare in China. And Japan was doing well, like in Korea. Japan is and was technically a very modern country. The weapons of Japan were more modern and more advanced compared to weapons of other countries. This gave Japan a big advantage in the first part of the war. Japan was and is a country with a strong hierarchy. And the army and soldiers are very much appreciated. And the honour of the emperor and the dignity of the people of Japan are values worth fighting for. This means that from lots of perspectives the decision to attack the United States of America was not a silly activity at all. It is not sure that a full success of the attack on Pearl Harbour would have Japan let win the war at the end. And maybe it is true that Japan overestimated its own force and power and underestimated the force and the scientific skills the United States could employ. From a different perspective Vietnam would have never fought back to the United States when the armed forces of the United States were considered to be superior of the means of Northern Vietnam. The same can be said of North Korea. And Iraq would have surrendered on forehand when the army of the USA were seen like unbeatable and superior. This shows that other reasons than rational reasons are used when decisions to fight are taken. After war prosperity It seems true that Japan has lost the war and a lot of other things. The same seemed true about Germany. But the countries that lost World War II are the countries that were economically among the richest and most prosperious countries and blooming economies. The loss of the war seemed to have had a positive influence on economic growth and welfare since the end of the war till recently. One of the reasons might be that Germany and Japan weren't allowed to have a huge army. The money of the governments can be spent to support the economy. Japan and Germany were since the war almost not involved in other wars till recently. This too means that the money of the governments could be used to support the economy. Like East Germany and West Germany got reunited too. This can mean Japan will get free once again. And Japan will once get freed of the influence and the military presence of the United States of America on the Janpanese soil too. Videos about the attack of Pearl Harbour. [media]http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/] [media]http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/] One of the biggest mistakes has probably been the lack of understanding that the United States of America don't understand the way people look to them. This means that the reasons of Japan to start the war are never understood. This is a more common problem. This problem is not only felt by Japan. There is a lot of disrespect for the American way and the American culture. The reasons for attacks are not understood by the American people and their politicians. This means that in spite of attacks to belongings of the USA the attitude of Americans don't change. And maybe attacks to American belongings increase the behaviour of the USA in the opposite way the attackers wanted to change it. This results in bigger problems and bigger gaps between different cultures and religions. -
It is possible to see some more or less interesting points of view. The first is the celebrating of the new year. The old year and the winter disappeared. Saying it in a basical way, the people managed to survive through the cold of the winter. So there are lots or reasons to be happy. Another interesting point of view is to see the way habits work. It seems people don't change habits very soon. In spite of the making of the calendre and while not following the decisions to let the year mathematically start on the first of January, the folkloristic habits of the folk people still go on with celebrating. The main reasons to celebrate were the end of the Winter, the start of the new season and a new year in the old way of thinking after the Winter and the start of Spring. These reasons to celebrate seem to be forgotten. But the people continue to party and to celebrate at the end of the winter and the start of Spring. It seems people adjust to the situation and celebrate the new year at December 31 and January 1. And the old habits of celebrating the arrival of Spring are still kept alive too. At the other hand, the habit of lightning fire work is based on the idea of evil spirits too. The idea with fire work is to make the evil spirits afraid and to frighten the bad spirits away and to let them disappear of fear by the loud noises. So the idea that bad spirits will be extra active when a change in the year happens and that something needs to be done to get rid of the bad spirits and to avoid the influence bad spirits can have to the people used to be the reason to make lots of hard noises. And without thinking of bad spirits who have to be frightened away people still use firework once the new year starts.

Months June June is named after Juno. Juno is the wife of Jupiter. Juno is a goddess of the Romans. The highest god is Jupiter. And the wife of the highest god is the highest goddess. Wikipedia: July July is called after Julius Ceasar. The general of the Roman Empire became emperor. To celebrate and to honour his highness the Romans called a month after him. First the Romans numbered the months. July was the fifth month. After some time the Romans gave names to some of the months. Wikipedia: August August is the eights month in the Gregorian calendre. August is named after the emperor of the Roman Empire Gaius Julius Caesar Octavianus. Because Julius Caesar got a month named after him Octavianus wanted to have a month too. And because July has 31 days the month of August must have 31 days too. Because Emperor August was in no way less than Julius Caesar. Before the month was called after Emperor August the month was called the sixth month. The emperor Gaius Julius Caesar Octavianus was called August. This means The Splendid One. So the month is called Splendid after his Emperor name. Wikipedia: September September is named after the word for seven in Latin. September is the sevent month when counted from the first of March bein the start of the year. October Latin is the language of the Romans during the Roman Empire. The word for eight is octo. So the 8the month is called October. The Romans originally started the year in March. Till 153 before the counting of the years in the Western way March was the start of the new year. November In Latin nine is called novem. So the ninth month is called November. December Ten is called decem in Latin. The tenth month is called December. January One theory is that January is named after Janus. Janus is a god with two faces. So at the change of the old year and the new year Janus looks back to the old year and looks forward to the new year. Wikipedia: February February is called after the god Februus. He is the god of purification and cleaning and the underworld. The second month of the year is ment to purify the soul. King Numu Pompilius divided the year in 12 months. Before that the Romans used ten months. The winter was not divided into months. The last month of the year before the start of the new year in spring was called after the god of cleaning. The last month got 28 days to fill up the days of the year. The extra day was put on the end of the year. In the year 456 the start of the year was put on Januar 1. Wikipedia March When the winter was over and ended it is time for war. The winter is to cold for warfare. The winter is too cold and the days are too short to march. So in spring the soldiers come out of their houses and army buildings and start to march towards the country of the enemy. March is the god of war. So the month in which the armies start to fight is called after the god of war. Wikipedia April There are different theories about the origin of the name of the month of April. First theory In the month after the month March the flowers start to open. Nature and plants open up. The month after March is called after the verb that means to open in Latin. Second theory The name comes from the word that means second. The month is the second month after the start of the year in spring. Third theory. The name origines from the word Aperta. This is another name for the Greek god Apollon. Wikipedia: May May can be called after the Roman goddess Maia. This Greek goddess was seen like a mother goddess. And in the month of May animals get young animals. So the month can be called after the mother goddess. The Roman goddess for fertility is the goddess Bona Dea. She is identified with the Greek goddess who makes nature grow. Wikipedia: Conclusion The origin of the names of the months shows that Western culture honours still the gods, goddesses and two emperors of the Romans.

In areas with the Roman Catholic believe carnival is celebrated. What is left of Carnival is a party, people enjoying themselves, people dressing up and lots of drinks. The goal of the festival seems to be happy. The original meaning of the festival seems to be forgotten. Carnival is folcloristic and modern at the same time.Here is a theory about the festival and its meaning.The festival was celebrated before the time of the Roman empire. The people at that time counted the new year to start in spring. After the cold of the winter nature starts to enwake again in spring. The plants start to grow. Flowers start to get flowers.So the idea was the year starts with the start of spring. Now this is a dangerous time. Because of the change of the old year to the new year the evil spirits come out too. And they seek who they can catch and put a bad spell upon. So people celebrate the end of the winter and the start of the new year. But at the same time it is important not to celebrate too much. The evil spirits might get jealous of so much joy and they are left out of the joy. So the people start to dress up to make it look that they look like somebody else. So the evil spirit doesn't manage to recognise them and to find out who is who. That is the reason for the dressing up in funny clothes in a way to look like somebody else.

Dancing On Stage Dance moves in American pop music.
Eza replied to Eza's topic in General Discussion
4. Lady Gaga Like is stated in another topic Lady Gaga can be seen like the successor of Madonna. The clips and extravaganza costumes Lady Gaga uses point in this direction. The moves and lack of appropiateness Elvis Presley showed are continued by Michael Jackson. Madonna proceeded with this approach in her concerts, life shows and video clips. The moves of the masked persons who crawl out of the covered bath tubes in the clip of Lady Gaga of her song Bad Romance show some resemblance with the moves of the zombies in the clip of Michael Jackson of his song Thriller. The way of performances and performing of the artists discussed in this topic show some alikeness. This shows that a line can be drawn from Elvis Presley, Michael Jackson, via Madonna all the way to Lady Gaga. The next video shows the moves of the zombie like futuristic dancers in the video clip of Lady Gaga. [media]http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/] Conclusions This study and research about dance moves on stage in American music leads to some conclusions. The first conclusion can be that artist get inspired by other examples, who looked for the edges of social appreciation. The second conclusion can be that while artists are sometimes seen by their time fellow persons like original artists they in reality copy and continue some ways of performing earlier singers explored before them. The conclusions in this study of the way new themes in performing arts of American popular music are discovered and used to impress the audience can lead to an understanding about how artists, performers and singers use the paths set by their precessors. And it can result in more appreciation of the way artists let themselves be inspired by other great and famous artists. -

The art of dancing on stage This topic deals with four famous artists. Using information about and videos of Elvis Presley, Michael Jackson, Madonna and Lady Gaga an effort is made to look for a line in the art of dancing and performing in American music. The research and the results of studying some videos of the performing artists lead to some conclusions. 1. Elvis Presley Elvis Presley moved in a special way. Some people loved it. And other people disliked it. The next video shows an early performance of a young Elvis Presley. The video seems to be a record of a live performance. The legs are shaking but there seems to be no particular and no special meaning ment by the moves. The guitar might prevent Elvis Presley from moving too much too.

Madonna considered herself to be a sort of an artist. When her family wanted to visit her show but had some objections against the more or less obscene gestures Madonna made in her show Madonna told her family that she would not change the moves because of her artistic integrity. So this means Madonna saw her shows like build by artistic creativity. LadyGaga can be seen like to be the successor of Madonna. This might mean LadyGaga sees herself like working out of creativity too. It can't be denied LadyGaga puts a lot of new ideas in her videos. The videos are like small artistic movies. So this means that the video clips LagyGaga makes can be seen like to be a sort of art. This would mean that beside being a performing artist LadyGaga can be seen like putting new elements into the art of making video clips too. Personal opinion: The video clip, the sound of the song, the music, the words and the text, the costumes and the movements and dance moves seem all to work together to create an athmosphere of being lost and being out of place, bareness and desolation. The masks and the sun glases as big that it can be used like a mask increase the feelings of abandonment the video clip invokes. This atmosphere is produced by the controversion between the two words of the title too, because usual the words bad and romance are not seen like belonging to eachother. LadyGaga: Bad Romance.

Youtube opens several interesting possibilities for people to join the art of making videos and to make video art. This results in some high quality videos as well in trends lots of people don´t understand. Several video art trends can be discovered on Youtube. Some of the trends of Youtube are described here. The videos posted in this post are ment to make the described trend clear and understandable. This explanation seems to be necessary since it seems some people don´t know how to handle and deal with videos on a forum and get really upset. 1. Music After some time of being against placing videos of artists by users the artists and the record companies place videos of artists on Youtube themselves. At the moment Lady Gaga and Justin Bieber are in a competition which video gets the most viewers. The video clip of Bad Romance of Lady Gaga competes with the video made about the song Baby by Justin Bieber. 2. Humor Some artists make humoristic videos. They are among the most popular video uploaders. Examples are Fred and Smosh. 3. Collaboration channels. Lots of users join Youtube. Some time ago after joining lots of them didn´t know what to talk about in their videos. So the collaboration channels arised. A group of users join one channel. Each user posts one video on their day. 4. Beauty, Make up and fashion. Lots of girls find a common interest. This makes the make up guru popupar. Some of them show items like The outfit of the day and My November favourites. 5. News. Some users seem to earn a living by making funny videos in which they give comments about the news. It is probably a way for users to know how to interprete the news. Examples are whatthebuckshow and sxephil. 6. Television Susan Boyle got world fame by the videos of her audition that were posted on Youtube. The channels of TheXFactorUK and Britainsgottalent are among the most viewed channels of Youtube. 7. Sexy girls Some pretty girls have popular channels that let them earn a reasonable amount of money each month. Examples are HotForWords and VenetiianPrincess. 8. Video art Youtube makes the art of making home videos popular. Video makers experiment with different ways of making videos. Surprisingly enough some of the users and some kind of videos become very popular. A talented genia girl is Mririan. Videos 1. Fred Fred is a British teenager boy with a high voice since the speed of the video and the audio track is increased. Fred seems to be very popular among young teenage girls. Some of them love their Fred Tshirt. In the videos Fred has all kind of adventures like his visit to the dentist and Fred goes swimming. The young boy who plays the character Fred was bored with making videos for some time. After a break he picked up the posting of videos again. Fred [media]http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/] 2. Susan Boyle Susan Boyle surprised millions of people with a surprising audition. The sound of her voice and her singing are considered to be like very beautifull. The surprise of her singing quality rose because she was completely unknown before the audition. And the difference between the impression she made on stage by her first appearance, her attitude and way of talking and the things she said and her voice and quality of singing amazed. It shows internet fame is gained because people, websites, news papers and television shows spread the link to the video. The audition of Susan Boyle in the talent competition television show Britain´s got talent of British television channel ITV. [media]http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/] 3. Video like a form of art One of the special things of Youtube is that almost everybody can make a video. For some sort of videos a webcam or a digital photo camera with webcam function or video application is enough. A computer and an internet connection are almost the only tools needed to make a video. A video editing program can be used to make a video without even using a webcam or a digital video camera. Pictures, videos and clips can be downloaded from the internet to combine them and make a new video out of existing material next to text videos. This means that while some time ago making video art clips was only done by video artists nowadays almost everybody who has the equipment consisting of a computer and an internet connection can join the home made video art.

Some old members seem to think that they own this forum.Being a member of the forum for a long time gives some privileges. And old members are appreciated for all the time they gave and all the efforts they made. Their posts and topics make this forum to what it is nowadays.On the other hand things move on. New ways of using the internet are invented. And new ways of using websites are developed. So when old members are stuck to their old way of posting and reading the posts of other members it might happen that they don't understand the changes that happen on the internet.So before telling other members how to behave on the forum it might be usefull to think if the negative attitude comes from outdated points of view.
