  I would like to know if my posts that are published under copywrite and not able to be used by anyone else? And since they are mine, I can use them in my other writings as I choose, correct?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  If they are solely of your own creation then copyright is automatically vested in your as the creator. Yes you can use theme elsewhere but you ought to read what Google’s position is on people creating duplicate content across domains > http://support.google.com/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=66359
