Why get your Teenagers a R720 Website for Christmas?
Imagine giving your teenagers their own website for Christmas. At just R720 too! Christmas morning you hand them an envelope containing their log in details to their very own .co.za domain website! It’s not a Blogger site or a WordPress.com site as those kinds of sites have website addresses that end in blogspot.com or wordpress.com (and are totally free.) For example I have three totally free Blogger blogs and their addresses end in blogspot.com They are tntunleashed.blogspot.com and teresaschultz.blogspot.com and makemoneyuseinternet.blogspot.com They are nice sites and I like having them, but I also have sites where I pay for hosting and domain registration so that I can have a unique Internet address and be more professional, like Online Flea Market, Make Money Writing Online, Work From Home Ideas, and Web Design Designer. Although I like … Read entire article »

6000 SA Schools close due to Strikes and Intimidation – August 2010
I don’t get it. Children who are the leaders of the future are being forced not to attend school. What if their parents decide to finally make the move to leave South Africa? Perhaps an exaggeration, but if half of school pupils leave South Africa with their parents to get a better education in another country, that’s a ton of less school fees being paid here in South Africa. I predict that due to strikes and intimidation going on right now, parents who had merely thought of leaving SA before, will be leaving soon. Some may say that missing a few days of school is only a small inconvenience – but I don’t see that 6000 schools closing for a few days is just a small inconvenience. The … Read entire article »

Famous Inca Civilization Leaders
Manco Capac was an early ruler of the ancient Inca civilization (about the years 1200 to 1400) Parachuti was a famous Inca ruler. Parachuti founded the Inca empire in 1438, and conquered neighbouring tribes, expanding the empire. In 1468 Parachuti chose his son, Tupac Inca Yupanqui to lead the army, and in 1471 Tupac became the Sapa Inca leader. From about 1493, and before the Spaniards arrived, the Inca leader was Huayna Capac, the grandson of Parachuti. Atahualpa and Huascar were brothers and were in competition against each other to rule the Inca empire from about 1525 to 1532. Atahualpa killed his own brother, Huascar, and took over leading the Incas, until 1533. Atahualpa was executed for supposedly plotting against a Spanish explorer and Spain army leader Franciso Pizarro in 1533. Francisco Pizarro chose … Read entire article »

The gods of the Inca Religion
The Inca believed in and worshipped many gods. Everything that was important to the Incas had a god (the sun, the moon, and rain.) Above all the Inca gods was the creator, Viracocha. He was father and mother of the moon and sun, and also of the other Inca gods. He was thought of as an elderly man with white hair and a beard. Viracocha was most probably ruler of destiny, and was invisible. Verbal stories passed down many generations of Inca families tells that Viracocha rose up out of Lake Titicaca. Lake Titicaca is found between Peru and Bolivia, not far from Copacabana. Late Titicaca is not only beautiful, but mysterious too. In the year 2000, a large temple was found in it. The powers of nature, most importantly the … Read entire article »

What were the Incas famous for?
Incas are particularly famous architects and masons. In Peru, stonework (masonry) by the Incas is famous for being detailed – stone walls made from big stones that fitted together with outstanding precision, like two perfectly cut puzzle pieces. No cement was used. A wall built with stones and without using any cement is known as a dry stone wall. The stones fitted together so perfectly that even a blade of grass could not grow between the stones. What is particularly amazing about these walls, usually built with pretty big stones, (and is also amazing about the Inca), is that the Incas didn’t know about using iron and steel for machinery to help them transport the big stones, but they got their stones transported, and their strong walls built … Read entire article »
