However did you get 13 votes in 2 hours @hellenna? You must have a supportive community. Just curious that's all. I know everyone on here has been trending 3 to 4 votes only.
I have no idea what is going on here, I am going to have to get someone independent to look into this.
What do you mean by that.....i am not breaking the rules, my fellow steemians are just supporting me. Is it a crime to get alot of upvote from good steemians who are supporting me ?...keep to your words @deliberator.
It is after all my competition, should I choose as I have, to let someone else that is more experienced on this platform look into this, to see if it is a case of vote manipulation, then it is within my own choice to do so, should nothing untoward be found, I will indeed "keep to my words" I hardly need you to tell me that fact though.
Manipulation.......... You must be joking. You can see some of my contest below that i joined through comment: https://steemit.com/irise-network/@olamax/win-up-to-6sbd-in-the-irise-network-weekly-contest-d4ad3e24d63dc#@hellenna/re-olamax-win-up-to-6sbd-in-the-irise-network-weekly-contest-d4ad3e24d63dc-20180210t110740728z
I did not do extensive research, but @cheetah bot did call her out for plagiarism on her very first post. I did look at the two post and extremely similar, one or two word difference in parts. This could be explained by her finding a person that said what she felt better than she could, but based on what I have seen her post to defend herself on your post, un likely.
Her intro post. Look at the remarks and then read her post, and the linked post that @cheetah bot left. She made no attempt to explain her first post theft. I would vote to mute her, but your call.
I did ask for independent advice, and you have given it. I am now placing this post under mute, many thanks for your time. It is much appreciated.
Good luck!
What a great idea!! Thank you for doing this:)
I'm definitely going to resteem this to get the word around! Here's a post I did, dedicated to my friend who is unfortunately dying from cancer. Writing it helped me deal with the helplessness I was feeling. Thank you again!
https://steemit.com/life/@lynncoyle1/my-friend-silvia-s-legacy
Cancer is a monster that takes good people from the world before their time. I'm saddened for your friend. But, as your post states, she will leave a legacy. Good luck on your entry!
Thank you so much for your kind words @beekerst! I really appreciate it:)
Checking down the list and you are on top right now. I hope you stay there @lynncoyle1!

I didn't do anything but cast my vote where it's best deserved @lynncoyle1. :)
Maybe others would have seen yours (and everyone else's posts) if I hadn't hogged all the blog space! Lol. I really didn't know. I thought it odd to post it all in, but who was I to question the Deliberator's rule? ;) My fault.

We are all familiar with rainbow and how it is formed. But, have you ever seen a rainbow within clouds? This phenomenon is called cloud iridescence. It is a Greek personification of the rainbow does Cloud Iridescence form?
Cloud iridescence is a diffraction phenomenon caused by small water droplets or small ice crystals individually scattering light. Iridescence is therefore mostly seen at cloud edges or in semi-transparent clouds, while newly forming clouds produce the brightest and most colorful iridescence.
And for you to observe this phenomenon, you need to place the sun itself behind foreground object, a building or a mountain.Other aids are dark glasses, or observing the sky reflected in a convex mirror or in the pool of water.
Rare Meteorological Phenomenon "known as Cloud Iridescence

Thanks for the opportunity
Thank you and how incredibly generous of you! My understanding is that to participate, I just post something in this box. If I misunderstood, please feel free to set me straight.
I submitted the following on a steemitchat contest yesterday. It was my first attempt at writing on Steemit. The challenge was to write a story, no more than 200 words describing the most difficult conversation I've had.
Following is my submission:
THE “FIRST CALL”
Fully trained and certified as a volunteer on a suicide hotline, I sat in the quiet of my home, mouth dry, heart booming, hands shaking, as I awaited my “First Call” to be “patched through”.
It happened! The call ominously exploded the stillness! In that moment, the simple act of picking up the phone felt daunting, impossible. I began questioning my sanity for VOLUNTEERING for this!
The call was from a successful business woman who despite financial, socio-economic and cultural advantages was a broken, hurting and self-destructive soul!
My job was to assess the risk, take necessary measures, to “intervene”, like send emergency medical aid.
Her life was saved that night. Though we never met, her voice was imprinted in my heart. I never forgot it.
Ten years later I was getting price quotes for my business and made a call to a potential supplier. Their company operator transferred me to the owner.
When "she" answered, I knew who "she" was. When I replied, "she" knew who I was. There was a pregnant and precious pause. We both stammered warm and grateful words to each other.
As it turns out neither of us forgot that “First Call”.
I enjoyed this story a lot! Its funny the way things work out! :)
Thank you for enjoying a memory with me. It was more than 30 years ago, yet so fresh! Thanks again!
Youre welcome! Made me smile! :)
Well now, you just made me smile! Funny thing about that! You can't give one without receiving one!That is one of my life missions - sharing smiles like they are going out of style!!
Blow-Drying Squirrels
When I was 12, I caught a baby squirrel.
I immediately bathed it, and attempted to blow-dry it.
Baby squirrels don't like hair dryers.
They really, really, don't like them.
I planned on keeping it as a secret pet, but evidently, my closet was not a good hiding place for it. My mom found it, and released it into the wild, otherwise known as the backyard.
The following year, a squirrel with two babies close behind her, paraded herself up the steps of our front-porch, and turned to face me. I immediately knew it was the squirrel I had caught the year before.
I sat there, stunned, as the squirrel chattered at me, then promptly turned and marched off.
For many years, I thought it was so cute that little squirrel had come back to show her babies off to me. It was only recently that I realized she wasn't showing her babies off to me.
She was warning them.
Did I mention that squirrels don't like being blow-dried?
These days when I encounter a squirrel, they typically stop in their tracks, stare at me, then turn and run up the nearest tree.
I casually walk past and say, "I see you've heard about me."
