Except American English, 'Cheque' means an order for your bank to transfer some of your money to another person and 'Check' is used for many non-banking related words like to verify that something is correct or not / a pattern of small square (in computer terminology). 
In US, both of these are referred as 'Check', it is completely geographical difference.

<< In the Internet or On the Internet or Over the Internet                                                      Behaviour or Behavior >>

In the Internet or On the Internet or Over the Internet

One of our readers dropped us an email asking which one is correct to use – In the internet or On the Internet or Over the Internet. Though there is no hard and fast rules but this is how we use.
We hardly use the phrase 'In the Internet' but there are few places where we have to use. For example, 'We live in the Internet era'. Internet is used as an adjective here, so there is no other option to use 'On' or 'Over' instead of 'In'. 
'On the Internet' is most commonly used phrase, mainly when Internet is referred as a storing place or any activity performed online, for example 'I have found this song on the Internet'.
There are few places where 'On the Internet' or 'Over the Internet', both can be used. For example, 'You can buy this over the Internet' or 'You can by this on the Internet', both are correct. If you say 'I have found this song over the Internet', though there is nothing wrong in it but 'on the Internet' sounds better here. Mainly it depends on the person who is using it and the verb that is used to form the sentence. 

Answer is as per our understanding, please feel free to share your view.

Solve vs Resolve

Below are the differences between Solve and Resolve (Solve vs Resolve):
'Solve' is generally used when there is a problem and we are trying to work out, but the problem does not involve any kind of disagreement with other person. For example, I have solved the math puzzle. Here math puzzle does not create any type of conflict or disagreement, so we have used 'Solve', not 'Resolve'.
'Resolve' is used when there is a conflict or disagreement and we are trying to find out answer or fix it. For example, They worked together to resolve the issue. There could be many ways to solve the issue, that means there are many opinions and conflicts. In such scenario, 'Resolve' must be used, not 'Solve'.
