Rehabilitated Zombies (PDS- Partially Deceased Syndrome)

If you are a fan of the show  The Walking Dead then you need to check out this BBC America series called In The Flesh. Sadly I discovered this series, after it had already debuted, but better late than never. I started watching it from the start of the 2nd Series. SO I recently caught up on the event of the debut series by renting the first DVD.
If you have not heard of this series before it takes place in Wales(UK), and it's a world where the dead rose on a particular day. But not all of the dead came back to life...only certain random people. They did come back as flesh eating monsters, but people learned that they could be rehabbed by using a chemical injected into their spinal columns. These PDS "sufferers" as they are often called are ostracized by the community and are treated rather poorly. Those who have not received treatment are called "Rabids"

So these people are entering a world that is scared, hates them, and they are not sure where they fit in. Are they still human or Undead? This also gives rise to cult like religions on both sides dealing with the "Rising". All of these elements along with very likable cast of characters has made for quite the interesting and not the average zombie TV show.

Past episodes can either be rented or purchased on disc format, and viewed by streaming on Amazon. No one is paying me to review this show, and I receive a very small commission for my links.

Some Sites to Earn Extra Cash

I know times are tough and everyone is feeling strapped for cash these days, so that is why I decided to share with you all some of the things I have found that are helpful in getting a few extra bucks. No you cannot get rich from these websites, but they will provide you with some extra income.

Clickworker - This is a German based site that pays workers to write, translate and research for information online, also to verify different items. They do require workers to take assessments to see how proficient you are with English or other languages that you may know. If you choose to take the assessments you will then have the opportunity to complete more jobs. They pay a few cents for each job, but they are quick and easy assignments and the cash adds up fast. This site pays once a week, and can be completed through Paypal if you choose. Once you become a member of this site you can then recruit others, and be paid $5.00 for every worker that joins and earns the amount of at least $10. I have been doing this for quite awhile. I will admit I was skeptical at first , but it is a better site than others I have tried in the past.

Bing - Almost everyone searches for things online, and yes almost everyone uses Google. But Bing is a new up and comer, and they are offering users the chance to earn rewards for searching. While it is not as accurate as Google it is still worth using the search engine to gain rewards for searching random things. This is another service that offers a referral program, and if someone joins and achieves silver status you are awarded 500 pts.

SurveySpot - Taking surveys is another simple and easy way to get easy cash. Plus you also get the opportunity to tell brands what you really think about products and services. Sometimes you may even get to try new products before everyone else.

Opinion Outpost - Similar to the above survey site, but they offer more payable surveys.

Cash Crate - Is a site that offers many opportunities to earn cash from surveys, to signups and more. Please click the website name to learn more.

These are just a few opportunities that I have chosen to share with you all. I hope that they may be of further interest to you and wish you luck in your pursuits.
