Microsoft OneDrive and Microsoft SkyDrive: What's the Fuss?

Microsoft OneDrive vs SkyDrive

 

Microsoft OneDrive and SkyDrive refers to the same cloud storage service (online storage service) provided by Microsoft and, in fact, there is no difference between them in the service they provide. It’s only a name change. Initially, Microsoft’s cloud storage service was called SkyDrive but later, due to a lawsuit that arose due to using of word “sky,” which breached the trademark of British Sky Broadcasting Group (BSkyB), Microsoft had to rebrand the service as OneDrive. So OneDrive is the latest name given to the former name SkyDrive. Now the name SkyDrive is no longer being used.

Microsoft SkyDrive:

In 2007, Microsoft introduced its cloud storage service under the name “Windows Live Folders” where it is an online storage space that the users who created an account got several Gigabytes of space. 

Later, by the end of August 2007, the name was changed to SkyDrive and continued that name until the name was changed as OneDrive in 2014. To get a SkyDrive, account users should create a Microsoft Live account. 

Initially, some free spaces of about 7 GB was provided (Currently users get 15 GB). If extra space is needed, they can be obtained by paying. To upload and download files, a web interface has been provided and it is supported by all major browsers such as Internet Explorer, Firefox and Google Chrome. Apart from the browser interface, client applications exist for various operating systems such as Windows, Windows Phone, iOS, Mac OSX, and Android where they allow synchronization of files in the local SkyDrive Folder with the online SkyDrive storage. 

From Windows 8, Microsoft introduced SkyDrive features into the operating system itself where a metro application came inbuilt into the distribution and also latest Office products such as Office 2013 can work directly on the SkyDrive. In addition, SkyDrive is linked with Office Web applications where users can create office documents in the SkyDrive and, on the fly, use them directly from the web browser itself. 

Apart from the normal SkyDrive, an enterprise service called SkyDrive Pro exists where that gives larger storage capacities integrated with more advanced features for business users. Users get several options to do with the files. One is, they can keep their files private. Another option is that they can share the file with others using a link. The next option is one can make a file publicly appear on web. Users can select whether a file is read-only to others users or whether it is editable.

Microsoft OneDrive:

Microsoft OneDrive (previously SkyDrive, Windows Live SkyDrive and Windows Live Folders) is a file hosting service that allows users to upload and sync files to a cloud storage and then access them from a web browser or their local device.

The concept behind the name OneDrive is spelled out pretty clearly by the refreshed service’s tagline: one place for everything in your life. “One place for all of your photos and videos. One place for all of your documents,” Microsoft said in its first OneDrive blog post. “One place that is seamlessly connected across all the devices you use.”

It is the latest name given for SkyDrive where the name change happened in February 2014. In 2013, British Sky Broadcasting Group (BSkyB), which is a British telecommunications company, filed a lawsuit against Microsoft for using the word “sky. ” After high court decided that Microsoft breached the trademark of Sky Broadcasting Corporation by using word “sky,” Microsoft settled down the case by deciding to drop the name. Then they named their service (rebranded) as OneDrive where SkyDrive became OneDrive and SkyDrive Pro became OneDrive for Business. Only the name was changed and there was no change to services or features. 

OneDrive is Microsoft's competition to Google Drive and Apple's iCloud, attempting to be the place where customers can manage their files on the cloud from anywhere. The name change to OneDrive from SkyDrive doesn't change the overall meaning of what Microsoft is pursuing in the cloud: your one stop shop for file access - old name or new name.

OneDrive is free, personal online storage that you can choose to use at home, work, or school. Your files are available from any device by going to the OneDrive website or using the OneDrive mobile app for your phone. 

Now nearly a year has passed since the name change and Microsoft added and modified features during this time. Currently, OneDrive provides the service of 15 GB of free storage for new users.. Office 365 users would get unlimited storage. The current web interface is a cleanly built interface using latest HTML 5.

The main difference between Microsoft OneDrive and SkyDrive:

• Microsoft SkyDrive is a storage service introduced by Microsoft in 2007. In 2014, the name of the service was changed due to a lawsuit and the new name is OneDrive.
• OneDrive is improving on SkyDrive, there's really no bad way to spin it. If you were a SkyDrive user in the past, you probably won't mind the rebranding and new features.

Finally!

The cloud storage service started by Microsoft in 2007 had the name “SkyDrive” but, in 2013, after a lawsuit filed by British Sky Broadcasting Company regarding the usage of word “Sky,” Microsoft had to drop the name SkyDrive. Then, in 2014, they re-branded the service under the name OneDrive. Hence, SkyDrive and OneDrive refers to the same service but the current name is OneDrive.

Some Creative Business Ideas that Made Millionaires!

The married man who created an affair website for married people:

Ashleymadison.com is a dating website with a difference; it only accepts married people, or someone wanting to date a married person. The site's slogan is "Life is short. Have an affair". The site founder is a former attorney Noel Biderman, who is interestingly a happily married man. Although his mission can be perceived as very wrong (for the record: cheating is bad!), the fact that the site claims 3.2 million members suggests that it's also doing something right.

The man who created a million dollar business of dog poop-scooping:

The most noted pioneer in the poop-scooping business is Matthew Osborn, who runs Pooper-Scooper.com. He never knew that this business would one day make him a millionaire. Osborn got started back in 1987 when he opened Pet Butler in Columbus, Ohio. At the time, Osborn was working two full-time jobs and making less than $6 per hour at each. He had a wife, a daughter and a son on the way, and was desperate to make some extra money. He learned that there were about 100,000 dogs within 15 miles of his home. The business slowly took off, and despite the dirty work, Osborn says he enjoyed satisfying the customers and working outdoors in some of the nicest backyards in Ohio. Eventually Osborn employed seven people and owned a fleet of six trucks serving about 700 regular customers. While Osborn may have put poop scooping on the map, Matt "Red" Boswell is taking it into the future. Boswell owns the Texas-based Pet Butler. Today, Pet Butler is the largest pet waste removal service in the country, and serves about 3,000 clients.

The housewife who invented a microwaveable pillow:

Kim Levine, invented Wuvit, little bags that come in various patterns and provide soothing penetrating moist heat. Kim realized that if she put some corn in cloth, sewed it together and then put it in the microwave; a warm relaxing pillow would be created. She rushed to create the simple product idea with her sewing machine and her multi-million dollar empire was born! Initially, Kim thought the Wuvit® concept would just be great gift for her kids and for people in her local area. But soon she realized her idea had huge potential. When local parents started calling her in the middle of the night asking for another soothing pillow because their kids could not sleep without the Wuvit®, she knew she had a fabulous opportunity. She started going to local retailers and craft shows, and then eventually got a major break when Saks Department Store decided to put the Wuvit® products in their stores! Now she's a millionaire and has even written a book about her retail endeavors.

The guy who sold pixels at a webpage for $1 Million:

Back in 2005, a 21-year-old student in England named Alex Tew launched The Million Dollar Homepage, through which he sold the pixels of a 1000×1000 grid for $1 each. Although it was an extremely simple idea, the unique project attracted enormous amounts of press coverage, and eventually earned $1,037,100 in a matter of months - the final slot on the page went for $38,100. It also spawned countless copycat websites that virtually all failed, since the idea was no longer novel.

The guy who created a company that provides excuse letters to miss work:

Do you need an excuse to miss work? A company has launched an excuse absence network service for U.S. employees and students which offers a load of excuses you can use to be absent from work. The Excused Absence Network provides all your excuse letter needs for just $25 per excuse note. These can be notes which appear to come from professional doctor or hospital and even fake jury summons and authentic-looking funeral service program with poems and pallbearers. The founder started the business for $300 and currently runs it off a laptop in a small Oklahoma town. The site gets about 15,000 hits a month

Eight Unknown Facts About Sir Isaac Newton

His Birth Was Premature
Isaac Newton wasn't expected to survive as he was born prematurely. It is said that he was so small when he was born that he could have fit inside a quart mug.

He Was Almost a Farmer
Newton's mother insisted that he becomes a farmer when he was 17 because he was born in a farming family. If it weren't for his uncle, he would have never attended Trinity College in Cambridge.

He Kept His Publications Secret
Although majority of Newton's discoveries were made when he was in his early to mid twenties, he didn't publish them until many years later. This resulted in many arguments over credit.

The True Story About Newton and His Apple
We always heard of a story that Newton was walking around his garden at Woolsthorpe Manor when he saw a falling apple, inspired by which he formulated the theory of universal gravitation. But Newton himself said that he was in his house staring through the window when he saw an apple fall from a tree.

Newton Was an Alchemist
Newton had a secret interest in alchemy. His studies regarding alchemy (the making of gold and silver from a base metal) were kept secret as it was a crime under an act of 1404. He recorded his studies in willfully cryptic language.

Newton Was Extremely Religious
Even though people use Newton's work, particularly the law of motion and universal gravitation to argue against the existence of God, Newton himself was extremely religious. He used to say that, "Gravity explains the motions of the planets, but it cannot explain who set the planets in motion. God governs all things and knows all that is or can be done." Despite his deep religious belief, Newton didn't believe the existence of spirits and ghosts.

Newton Was Passionate About The Bible
Newton was so passionate about Bible that he wrote more about religion than about science and mathematics! He calculated the date of the Crucifixion of Jesus Christ as April 3, A.D. 33. He even predicted that the Jews would return to Israel. He was also passionate to find the hidden meanings in the Bible.

As a Politician He Uttered Just One Sentence
Newton served as a Member of Parliament for exactly one year (1689 - 1690). During all the lengthy proceedings, he spoke only once: he asked a nearby person to close an open window!

Why should the wedding ring be worn on the fourth finger?

There is a beautiful and convincing explanation given by the Chinese.....

Thumb represents your Parents
Second (Index) finger represents your Siblings
Middle finger represents your-Self
Fourth (Ring) finger represents your Life Partner
& the Last (Little) finger represents your children

Firstly, open your palms (face to face), bend the middle fingers and hold them together - back to back

Secondly, open and hold the remaining three fingers and the thumb - tip to tip

Now, try to separate your thumbs (representing the parents)..., they will open, because your parents are not destined to live with you lifelong, and have to leave you sooner or later.

Please join your thumbs as before and separate your Index fingers (representing siblings)...., they will also open, because your brothers and sisters will have their own families and will have to lead their own separate lives.

Now join the Index fingers and separate your Little fingers (representing your children)...., they will open too, because the children also will get married and settle down on their own some day.

Finally, join your Little fingers, and try to separate your Ring fingers (representing your spouse).

You will be surprised to see that you just CANNOT....., because Husband & Wife have to remain together all their lives - through thick and thin!!

Please try this out.............

Do you know the truth of the conflict between israel and palestine ?

THERE WAS NO COUNTRY IN THE WORLD NAMED ISRAEL TILL 1948. AS ISRAEL WAS FORMED IN 1948 BY OCCUPYING PALESTINE.

PALESTINE WAS A COUNTRY UNDER BRITISH CONTROL UN TILL 1948 WHEN JEWS SEIZED POWER OF THE COUNTRY AND FORMED ISRAEL.

PALESTINE WAS A COUNTRY WITH THREE RELIGIONS MUSLIM, CHRISTIANS AND JEWS. WITH JEWS IN MINORITY OF 9%. CHRISTIAN 8% AND MUSLIMS 81%(AS PER THE CONSENSUS OF 1910 ) ALTHOUGH BEFORE 1900 THE TOTAL POPULATION OF JEWS IN PALESTINE WAS EVEN LESS THEN 5%. BUT DURING THE FIRST AND SECOND WORLD WAR WHEN JEWS WERE GETTING SLAUGHTERED IN EUROPE AND RUSSIA . THEY STARTED MIGRATING TO PALESTINE , WITH THE HELP OF BRITAIN THEY WERE ALLOWED TO SETTLE INSIDE PALESTINE AND SOON WITH THE SUPPORT OF BRITAIN THE MINORITY COMMUNITY OF JEWS BEGAN TO GROW STRONGER INSIDE PALESTINE. AFTER THE WORLD WAR 2 LARGE NO OF ARMED JEWS STARTED MIGRATING TO PALESTINE FROM EUROPE, RUSSIA, POLAND , CHEKOSOLOVAKIA AS JEWS HAVE BEEN MASS MURDERED IN THESE COUNTRIES .SOON THESE JEWS INSIDE PALESTINE START DEMANDING PALESTINE TO BE GIVEN TO THEM AS A JEWS HOMELAND. LOTS OR ARMS AND AMMUNITION AND FUNDS WERE COMING TO THESE JEWS FROM THE JEWS ALL AROUND THE WORLD . AS THE EUROPEAN COUNTRIES WERE ALSO AGREED WITH THE IDEA OF A SEPARATE JEWS HOMELAND AWAY FROM EUROPE (AS THE EURPOEAN WERE VERY ANNOYED ND AFRAID OF THE JEWS FINANACIAL POWERE AND CONNECTIONS AND SEE THEM AS THEIR RIVALS IN ACUIRING THE WORLDS FINANCIAL CONTOL).SO THE EUROPE GAVE ALL THEIR SUPPORT TO THE JEWS REBEL GROUP INSIDE PALESTINE.

IN 1948 THE JEWS BEGUN REVOLT AGAINST PALESTINE. PALESTINE ARMY WITH OLD ARMS AND TECHNOLOGY HAD NO MATCH AGAINST THE JEWS WITH THE LATEST ARMS AND TECHNOLOGY PROVIDED BY BRITAIN AND U.S.A. SOON THE JEWS RAVISHED THE PALESTINE ARMY AND MANY PALESTINE ARABS FLED THE COUNTY TO THE NEIGHBOURING ARAB COUNTRIES (MAINLY EGYPT, JORDON AND SYRIA). THE JEWS HAD CAPTURED PALESTINE AND DECLARED IT AS A NEW NATION CALLED `ISRAEL', U.S.A IMM ACKNOWLEDGED THIS NEWLY FORMED COUNTRY IN UNO AND ISRAEL WAS DECLARED A INDEPENDENED NEW NATION.

SO THIS IS THE HISTORY OF ISRAEL . ISRAEL IS THE COUNTRY WHICH IS FORMED IN PALESTINE BY GRADUALLY REMOVING PALESTINE PEOPLE FROM THERE OWN COUNTRY AND OCCUPYING THEIR LAND SINCE 1948. SINCE 1948 THE PALESTINE PEOPLE ARE STRUGGLING TO GET THEIR HOMELAND BACK FROM ISRAEL. BUT THEY ARE TOO WEAK AS THEY ARE UP AGAINST THE MIGHT OF USA AND ALL OF EUROPE.,

ALTHOUGH IT IS PALESTINE WHO HAVE LOST THEIR HOME LAND AND HAVE BEEN LIVING UNDER ISRAELI OCCUPATION SINCE MORE THEN 60YEARS NOW, BUT IT IS ISRAEL WHO HAS BEEN SHOWN AS A VICTIM OF PALESTINE ALL OVER THE WORLD ?

IT IS BECAUSE ALL THE WORLD MEDIA HAVE BEEN CONTROLLED BY JEWS ALL OVER THE WORLD. ALL THE MAJOR NEWS PAPERS (LIKE NEW YORK TIMES,WASHINGTON POST,TIMES MAGAZINE, DAILY HERALD, THE TELEGRAPH U.K ,ETC ) AND TV NEWS CHANNELS (LIKE CNN , BBC , FOX NEWS, ABC NEWS) ARE UNDER DIRECT OR INDIRECT CONTROL OF THE JEWS. AND THIS SYNDICATE OF WESTERN MEDIA IS PORTRAYING SINCE ALL THESE YEARS ISRAEL AS INNOCENT COUNTRY AND PALESTINIANS AS TERRORIST!!

BUT THE FACT IS THAT UN TILL 1989 PALESTINIAN WERE DEMANDING THEIR HOME LAND BACK FROM ISRAEL PEACE FULLY AND THEY EVEN AGREED TO GIVE MORE HALF THERE LAND TO THE JEWS BUT THEY RECEIVED NO RESPONSE FROM ISRAEL. SO AFTER LOOSING ALL HOPES THEY STARTED THEIR ARMED STRUGGLE FROM 1987 ( IT IS TRUUE THAT NO FREEDOM CAN BE WON WITHOUT STRUGGLE).

From 1987 to 1993, the First Palestinian Intifada against Israel took place. After few years of on-and-off negotiations, the Palestinian groups have launched an orchestrated attack against Israel. This was known as the Al-Aqsa Intifada. The events were highlighted by Palestinian suicide bombing in Israel that killed only a few Israeli's but created a panic inside israel, and the continued Israeli Security Forces invasions and targeted killings of Palestinian group leaders, which resulted mostly in many Innocent Palestinians civilians deaths.

AND IT WAS THE RESULT OF THIS ARMED STRUGGLE THAT IN 1994 ISRAEL AGREED TO GIVE SOME OF THE PALESTINE HOME LAND BACK TO PALESTINE (WEST BANK AND GAZA AND EAST JERUSALEM) . BUT EVEN THIS WAS DELAYED FOR MANY YEARS AND IN 2001 PALESTINIAN STARTED THEIR STRUGGLE FOR INDEPENDENCE AGAIN WITH WHAT EVER LIMITED MEANS THEY HAD. IT BRINGS IN SOME RESULTS AND IN YEAR 2004 ISRAEL FORCES MOVED OUT OF WEST BANK AND GAZA(BUT EAST JERUSALEM STILL WAS UNDER ISRAEL OCCUPATION) .

Also in 2002, the Road map for peace calling for the resolution of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict was proposed by a "quartet": the United States, European Union, Russia, and United Nations. U.S. President George W. Bush in a speech on June 24, 2002 called for an independent Palestinian state living side by side with Israel in peace. But it never metalized. Only Gaza and west bank were vacated by Israeli forces but even they were kept under indirect control of Israel.

BUT THIS LIMITED INDEPENDENCE HAD MADE THINGS EVEN WORSE FOR PALESTINIANS AS BOTH GAZA AND WEST BANK HAS BEEN CIRCLED FROM ALL SIDE BY ISRAEL AND ISRAEL HAS MADE 10 METERS TALL CONCRETE WALL AND HENCE MADE ALL PALESTINE PEOPLE AS PRISONERS WITHIN THEIR OWN COUNTRY. THE PALESTINE PEOPLE HAVE NO AIR PORT OR SEA PORT OF THEIR OWN AS BOTH HAS BEEN DESTROYED BY THE ISRAELI ARMY AND THE ISRAELI ARMY IS RELUCTANT TO ALLOW PALESTINE TO MAKE ANY AIR PORT AND E PORT. HENCE THE ONLY WAY THE PALESTINE PEOPLE CAN GO OUT OF THEIR COUNTRY IF BY PASSING FROM ISRAEL. ISRAELI ARMY HAS MADE CHECKPOSTS AT ALL THE CROSSINGS FROM GAZA AND WEST BANK AND OFTEN HARASS THEM AND NOT LETTING THEM MOVE OUT OF PALESTINE. NO NEW TECHNOLOGY OK ANY KIND IS EVER ALLOWED TO ENTER PALESTINE AS ISRAEL REFUSE TO ALLOW ANYTHING WHICH CAN EDUCATE PALESTINE ON THE PERTEX THAT IT CAN LATER BE USED TO MAKE SOME KIND OF WEAPONS AGAINST ISRAEL !! EVEN THE SCHOOLS AND UNIVERSITIES DON`T HAVE LABS OR LITERATURE TO EDUCATE STUDENTS ABOUT SCIENCE AND NEW TECHNOLOGIES. AS ISRAEL DON`T WANT THEM TO LEARN AND LATER BECOME SCIENTIST OR ENGINEERS.

THESE HELPLESS PALESTINIANS HAVE ONLY ONE WAY OF FIGHTING AGAINST THIS MOST MODERN FORCES OF ISRAEL` BY FIRING HOME MADE ROCKETS TOWARDS ISRAEL FROM THEIR BORDER. BUT THIS IS A USELESS WEAPON AS THESE ROCKETS ARE HOME MADE THEY HAS NO ACCURACY AND RANGE.

THAT IS THE REASON THAT IN THE PAST 8 YEARS MORE THEN 5000 ROCKETS HAVE BEEN FIRED BY THE PALESTINIANS EXTREMIST AND THEY HAVE MANAGED TO KILL JUST 18 ISRAELI'S. YES JUST 18 ISRAELI'S IN 8 YEARS!! WHERE AS ISRAEL AS KILLED MORE THEN 5000 PALESTINIANS AND INJURED MORE THEN 20000 PALESTINIANS ON THE PERTEX OF TAKING REVENGE AGAINST THESE ROCKET ATTACKS. SO MANY OF YOU NOW CAN IMAGINE THAT THE LATEST ISRAEL ATTACK ON GAZA IN WHICH MORE THEN 1400 PALESTINIANS WERE KILLED (550 CHILDREN AND 250 WOMEN) AND MORE THEN 5000 PALESTINIANS HAVE BEEN INJURED (MAJORITY OF THEM IS CHILDREN AND WOMEN). THIS ATTACK ON GAZA AS TOLD BY ISRAEL TO THE WORLD WAS TO AVENGE THIS SO CALLED USELESS ROCKET ATTACKS ON ISRAEL. CAN U IMAGINE HOW CRUEL AND RUTHLESS THE ISRAELI REGIME IS ? THEY ARE COMMITTING GENOCIDE IN PALESTINE AND CALLING IT AS A ATTACK TO STOP THE FLOW OF ROCKETS INSIDE THEIR COUNTRY ?? THE ROCKETS WHICH HAD KILLED JUST 18 PEOPLE IN LAST 8 YEARS. MORE THEN THIS NO OF PEOPLE ARE KILLED EVERY YEAR WHIILE SWIMMING IN BEACHES IN ISRAEL. SO WHOULD THEY STOP PEOPLE FROM GOING TO BEACHES ALSO ???

Israel’s latest war in Gaza has confirmed for many of its critics what had been apparent to many in the Middle East, that Israel has no interest in any negotiated peace, because peace means Israel would have to give back some occupied territory.
The Israelis are now engaged in the same media campaign before slaughtering more Palestinian women and children.

Israel's 22-day offensive in the Gaza Strip from 27 december to 18 january killed 1,434 people, including 960 civilians, 239 police officers and 235 fighters, a total of 5,303 Palestinians were injured in the assault, including 1,606 children and 828 women, It’s so pathetic and it is hypocrisy as usual.

SO IN THE THE MOST EXTRAORDINARY AND AMAZING EVENT OF HISTORY. A GROUP OF MINORITY JEWS COMMUNITY CONSISTING LESS THEN 10% OF THE ENTIRE POPULATION OF THE PALATINE KEPT ON GROWING BY IMMIGRATING JEWS FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD AND WHEN THEIR POPULATION REACHED 30% THEY REVOLVED AGAINST THE ORIGINAL RIGHTFUL OWNERS OF THE COUNTRY AND TOOK OVER THEIR COUNTY AND MADE THE PALESTINIANS AS REFUGEE INSIDE THEIR OWN COUNTRY OF PALESTINE !!

IT IS CLASSIC LESSON IN PURE AND SIMPLE MEDIA MANIPULATION. BRAIN WASHING THE WORLD, AT IT BEST. WITH CAREFUL SCHEMING AND MANIPULATION. ISRAEL HAS ALWAYS PRECONDITIONED THE WORLD OPINION TO ACCEPT EVERY FORTHCOMING AGGRESSION. AND THEY HAVE ALWAYS SUCCESSFULLY MANAGED TO PROJECT THEM SELVES AS THE GOOD-GUYS.
PALESTINE, WHICH IS THE RIGHTFUL OWNER OF THE TERRITORY. IS PRESENTED TO THE WORLD BY THE JEWS PR MACHINE AS A PRIMITIVE, BARBARIC, STONE-AGE COMMUNITY RULED BY A GROUP OF TERRORISTS THAT DISTURB THE WORLD PEACE!

Over the years, the Israelis have succeeded in their campaign to portray themselves as the victim – not the aggressor. As a result, when there is a crisis in the West Bank, the World looks on, turning a blind eye to the aggression.

A little bit of history...

The next time you are washing your hands and complain because the water temperature isn't just how you like it, think about how things used to be.....

* * * * * *

Here are some facts about the 1500s:

* * * * * *

Most people got married in June because they took their yearly bath in May and still smelled pretty good by June. However, they were starting to smell so brides carried a bouquet of flowers to hide the body odor. Hence the custom today of carrying a bouquet when getting married.

* * * * * *

Baths consisted of a big tub filled with hot water. The man of the house had the privilege of the nice clean water, then all the other sons and men, then the women and finally the children-last of all the babies. By then the water was so dirty you could actually lose someone in it. Hence the saying, "Don't throw the baby out with the bath water."

* * * * * *

Houses had thatched roofs-thick straw-piled high, with no wood underneath. It was the only place for animals to get warm, so all the dogs, cats and other small animals (mice, bugs) lived in the roof. When it rained it became slippery and sometimes the animals would slip and fall off the roof. Hence the saying "It's raining cats and dogs."

* * * * * *

There was nothing to stop things from falling into the house. This posed real problem in the bedroom where bugs and other droppings could really mess up your nice clean bed. Hence, a bed with big posts and a sheet hung over the top afforded some protection. That's how canopy beds came into existence.

* * * * * *

The floor was dirt. Only the wealthy had something other than dirt. Hence the saying "dirt poor."

The wealthy had slate floors that would get slippery in the winter when wet, so they spread thresh (straw) on the floor to help keep their footing. As the winter wore on, they kept adding more thresh until when you opened the door it would all start slipping outside. A piece of wood was placed in the entranceway. Hence the saying a "thresh hold."

In those old days, they cooked in the kitchen with a big kettle that always hung over the fire. Every day they lit the fire and added things to the pot. They ate mostly vegetables and did not get much meat. They would eat the stew for dinner, leaving leftovers in the pot to get cold overnight and then start over the next day. Sometimes the stew had food in it that had been there for quite a while. Hence the rhyme, "Peas porridge hot, peas porridge cold, peas porridge in the pot nine days old."

Sometimes they could obtain pork, which made them feel quite special. When visitors came over, they would hang up their bacon to show off. It was a sign of wealth that a man "could bring home the bacon." They would cut off a little to share with guests and would all sit around and chew the fat."

Those with money had plates made of pewter. Food with high acid content caused some of the lead to leach onto the food, causing lead poisoning and death. This happened most often with tomatoes, so for the next 400 years or so, tomatoes were considered poisonous.

Bread was divided according to status. Workers got the burnt bottom of the loaf, the family got the middle, and guests got the top, or "upper crust."

Lead cups were used to drink ale or whisky. The combination would sometimes knock them out for a couple of days. Someone walking along the road would take them for dead and prepare them for burial. They were laid out on the kitchen table for a couple of days and the family would gather around and eat and drink and wait and see if they would wake up. Hence the custom of holding a "wake."

England is old and small and the local folks started running out of places to bury people. So they would dig up coffins and would take the bones to a "bone-house" and reuse the grave. When reopening these coffins, 1 out of 25 coffins were found to have scratch marks on the inside and they realized they had been burying people alive. So they thought they would tie a string on the wrist of the corpse, lead it through the coffin and up through the ground and tie it to a bell. Someone would have to sit out in the graveyard all night (the "graveyard shift") to listen for the bell; thus, someone could be "saved by the bell" or was considered a "dead ringer."
