A Moral Stand on the Internet

Will you do the right thing?


“Social responsibility, risking academic integrity, and being responsible if caught for plagiarism”, are only a few phrases found in Free Online Paper Mills, by Michelle Vu.  She emphasizes the importance of making the right decision and not taking advantage of the online sources of essay writing.  Her key online references include eCheat and Custom-Writing.com.   eCheat simply offers a database of essays that could not be totally viewed before purchasing.  Its competitor, Custom-Writing.com claims, "It’s not cheating, It’s collaborating".  This site offers references to help students with their own essays.  However, it also promotes essays by providing testimonials from previous clients who purchased essays from them online.  These sources are unethical and encourage plagiarism.

Taking a moral stand on making sound decisions in preparing your own essays sets a good example for all students. For riding the tail of plagiarism, by purchasing essays done by others, can only hurt the process of learning what may be needed for you to carry-out task later in life.
Yes, essay resources are out there.   But, keep your head in the game, be proud, and get results on your own.

Plagiarism: I Got You. You Got Me?




Let me remind you that plagiarism is not unique indeed. However, we all must consider the advantages and disadvantages if plagiarism. With the number of responsibilities that we all must meet on a daily basis, I'm  sure there is a least a thought of " How can I get this done with the least amount of effort." Although knowing the distress of the inconvenience, we have to make the extra standard to continue to aid in the value of the art form of creativity and ethical reason of responsibility. For the other side of the consequence of plagiarism can only be fatal to our understanding  and growth of knowledge.  So be strong and persistent and keep up the good work. 

The Big Decline on Property Value




          The American dream as the world knows it was always the two story home with the white Pickett fence.  Of course, who could accomplish that without a thriving career?  One able to accomplish those things probably didn’t imagine that the economy would crash.  What is one to do when he/she can’t afford their home and it’s value has depreciated by at least 30 percent? The big decline in property value has had a major impact on our society, the upside is houses are so cheap now, many home buyers can get great deals, but unfortunately sellers are taking a big hit. How has it affected you?
