Normally, your weight is evenly distributed between both feet when you’re in the A-stance. Since an uppercut requires you to throw a punch at an odd angle, you need to shift your weight to generate power. Keep your weight on your back foot to generate enough natural momentum to throw a strong uppercut.  You can throw an uppercut with your nondominant hand. To do this, shift your weight to your nondominant leg instead. An uppercut is the most difficult type of punch to pull off effectively. Due to the fact that you’re striking from an odd angle, it’s harder to land your punch with power. The goal of an uppercut is to cut through your opponent’s defenses by striking from a unique angle. Lean back 2–3 inches (5.1–7.6 cm) and lower your dominant shoulder. Slide your dominant elbow against your ribs with your forearm aimed at your target. Keep your nondominant hand raised in front of you to block counterpunches and hide your attack angle. These instructions are reversed for an uppercut with your nondominant hand. Importantly, you should not tuck the elbow if you’re throwing an uppercut with your nondominant hand, though. Instead, let it freely hang under your shoulder. Raise your dominant heel off of the ground and bend your knee inwards. At the same time, lean forward toward your target. While leaning forward, lower your dominant leg another 2–3 inches (5.1–7.6 cm). This will give you more power and create a better angle of attack. When done correctly, your body will look like it’s doing a kind of scooping motion as you’re dipping down and extending your punch out. Despite the way it may look in a professional fight, you don’t actually throw your arm in a circular motion, it’s basically a straight punch upwards at an angle. Throw your fist up towards your target. Hit with your middle knuckle and drive through the punch. After you extend through the target, pull your arm back and prepare for another punch or block.

Shift your weight to your dominant leg to generate power. Lower your dominant arm and shoulder 10-20 degrees. Pivot with your dominant leg to initiate the punch. Drive your fist upwards to strike your target at an angle.


Normally, you’d heat soup in a pan, but if all you have on hand is a kettle, that will work just as well.  Open the can of soup and pour the contents into the kettle.  If the soup is condensed, add water or milk in the volume recommended by the directions on the label.  Heat the soup for about 8 minutes on medium heat, then allow to cool for several minutes before consuming. Instant ramen is a tasty and quick noodle soup.  Put the noodle brick and the contents of the flavor packet into a bowl, boil some water in your kettle, then pour the water over the ramen until it covers the noodles.  Place a plate or cover over the bowl and wait about 5 minutes before eating. Place 200 grams (7.1 oz) canned chickpeas into one container, along with half of a red bell pepper (sliced thinly), and a handful of sliced sugar snap peas.  Add a tablespoon of soy sauce and and 1 or 2 teaspoons of ground coriander.  Cover your ingredients with boiling water and place a plate or lid over the container to keep heat in.  Wait about 2 minutes, then enjoy your tasty soup.  Add salt or pepper if you wish. For a smoother soup, put all the ingredients in a blender, then cover with boiling water.  Turn the blender on high for about 20 seconds. Pour canned food directly into the kettle before heating.  Heating canned goods directly in the can is unsafe, and can lead to harmful metals and chemicals leaching into your food.

Reheat canned soup. Pour boiling water over instant ramen. Make a chickpea soup. Don’t cook canned foods inside their own cans.


Nose piercings should be cleaned twice a day - once in the morning and once in the evening - until they are fully healed. Cleaning your piercing too little may cause it to become dirty and infected while over-cleaning your piercing can lead to irritation and delayed healing. The simplest way to clean your piercing it to use a salt solution. To make a salt solution, mix 1/4 teaspoon of non-iodized sea salt in 8 oz. (1 cup) of warm water. Alternatively, you can buy a packaged sterile saline solution from a store. Before you touch your piercing, it is essential that you thoroughly wash your hands with antibacterial soap. Otherwise, bacteria from your hands could come in contact with the piercing (which is essentially an open wound) and cause an infection. Grab a clean cotton ball and dip it into the salt solution. Gently press the cotton ball against your nose piercing and hold it there for 3 or 4 minutes. Be careful when removing the cotton ball in case it gets caught in the nose ring or stud. After cleaning, gently pat the area around your piercing dry with a clean cotton ball, a tissue or some paper towel. Avoid using a towel to do this, as towels can harbor bacteria and snag on the ring or stud. If you see any crusting develop over the piercing, resist the urge to remove it. The crust is your body's way of protecting the piercing. Lavender oil lubricates the piercing, reducing tenderness and promoting healing. After cleaning, apply a little lavender oil to the piercing using a lint-free cloth.  Twist the stud or rotate the ring to get the oil inside the piercing, then wipe away any excess with a clean tissue (otherwise it could irritate the skin). Lavender oil can be found at health food stores, at the supermarket or at the chemist's. Make sure the bottle is labeled "BP" or "medicinal grade". Avoid using any material with fibers that can get caught in the piercing. This includes cotton swabs, cotton balls, tissues, and toilet paper.

Clean your piercing twice a day. Prepare a salt solution. Wash your hands. Soak a cotton ball in the salt solution. Pat the area dry with some clean tissue. Use a little lavender oil to promote healing.


Not all Bonsai trees are the same. Many woody perennials and even some tropical plants can be made into Bonsai trees, but not every species will be appropriate for your unique location. When selecting a species, it's important to consider the climate that the tree will be grown in. For instance, some trees die in freezing weather, while others actually require the temperature to drop below freezing so that they can enter a dormant state and prepare for the spring. Before starting a Bonsai tree, make sure the species you've chosen can live in your area - especially if you plan on having an outdoor tree. The staff at your local garden supply store will be able to help you if you're unsure.  One particularly beginner-friendly variety of Bonsai tree is the juniper. These evergreens are hardy, surviving all across the northern hemisphere and even in the more temperate regions of the southern hemisphere. In addition, juniper trees are easy to raise - they respond well to pruning and other "training" efforts and, because they are evergreens, never lose their leaves. They are rather slow growing, however. Other conifers commonly cultivated as Bonsai trees include pines, spruces, and cedars of many varieties. Deciduous (leafy) trees are another possibility - Japanese maples are especially beautiful, as are magnolias, elms, and oaks. Finally, some non-woody tropical plants, like jade and "snowrose", are good choices for indoor environments in cool or temperate climates. The needs of indoor and outdoor Bonsai trees can vary drastically. Generally, indoor environments are drier and receive less light than outdoor environments, so you'll want to choose trees with lower light and moisture requirements. Below are listed some of the most common varieties of bonsai tree, grouped by their appropriateness for either indoor or outdoor environments:   Indoor: Ficus, Hawaiian Umbrella, Serissa, Gardenia, Camellia, Kingsville Boxwood.  Outdoor: Juniper, Cypress, Cedar, Maple, Birch, Beech, Ginkgo, Larch, Elm. Note that temperate...

Not all Craigslist postings are created equal; some will have less information than others and that is okay. However, it is important to take a look at the information that is there and check for red flags that could mean the posting a scam. These red flags would be if the posting:  Consists of only a few words. For example, “Need writer”. A reputable company would put more effort into specifying the type of writer they need and what you would be writing about. Has grammatical errors. Numerous errors shows a lack of effort that should make you consider whether or not this posting is from a reputable company. Provides no contact information. Your only option will then be to reply to the job posting through Craigslist. It is still okay to apply, but if you are concerned, you can choose to exclude certain personal information (like your home address). Leaves you with many questions. If you find yourself looking for basic information like company, location, title, job duties, etc. it may be a fictitious posting. If the company’s name is listed, research it. Doing your homework and checking out the company will help you to get an idea of what the company is like and whether or not it seems legitimate. Keep in mind, it is not necessarily a scam if the company wishes to remain confidential at first. However, this information must be provided if you are asked to do an interview.  Read or click through their website. Does the website look professional? Is the job listed on a “careers page”? Do you have an understanding of what the company does after looking at their site? Call a general number provided and, if possible, speak to someone. If someone answered the phone, did they use a professional greeting such as “Company B, how may I help you?” If someone did not answer the phone, was there a professional sounding voice mail? If you are looking at a Craigslist posting and can’t find any contact information, or the information seems odd, go to the company’s website and verify their contact information. Be cautious if...

Not all Ivy League schools offer the same experience. Find out whether the research opportunities, location, social life, students, professors, climate, dormitories and food services are things you would enjoy for four years. Talk with professors and current students. Get a sense of what your life there would be like. Also, try to see if you can spend a weekend there.  Several colleges offer that option. Ivy League schools are notoriously expensive and they do not offer any athletic, merit or regional scholarships. You must complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) to receive aid. Seek out teachers who know you well, have a favorable opinion of you and seem willing to write a great recommendation on your behalf. Some will appreciate if you can make their job easier with a discussion or a few notes for starting points on what to say about you. What many applicants do not realize is that high grades and test scores will not guarantee admission. They merely "get you through" the first round of rejections. After that, the college will examine what kind of person you are. This is done through one or more essays, teacher and counselor recommendations, an interview and sometimes a peer recommendation. Begin the application process early so that you will have sufficient time to revise anything if needed. Ask adults familiar with prestigious universities' culture (your school counselor, for example) for advice on what kinds of things from your experience to write about and how to best present them to the school.  This can help with interviews too. Interviews can be with someone from the admissions office of the university or an alumni, and range from relatively nonchalant to interrogative ordeals. Dress respectfully, be expectant of questions your interviewer may ask, but above all just be yourself - or a subtly more mature version! Find someone to give you practice interviews. Even if they aren't familiar with the process, they will help you stay relaxed and articulate. If your interview does not...

Not all STDs are symptomatic; however, there are some indicators that you or your partner might have contracted an STD and should see a doctor. Common symptoms include:  Sores and bumps around the vagina, penis, or rectum Pain while urinating Pain during sex Unusual or foul-smelling discharge from the vagina or penis Unusual vaginal bleeding Do not avoid doctors if you are worried about an STD. Many STDs are treatable and even fully curable, if caught early. Be honest and open with your doctors, and inquire about your treatment options. While everyone should get tested frequently for STDs, there are certain demographic groups who should be tested more frequently. These include:  Pregnant women or women who are trying to become pregnant People who have HIV — they are more susceptible to contracting other STDs People who have sex with HIV-positive partners Men who have sex with men Sexually active women under the age of 25 — they require more frequent chlamydia tests Sexually active women over the age of 21 — they require HPV tests People born between 1945 and 1965 — they are at higher risk for Hepatitis C, a curable disease  People who have multiple partners, have a single partner who sleeps with multiple partners, use prostitution services, use certain drugs, have unprotected sex, have a history of STDs or STIs, or had a parent with certain STDs when they were born are all at higher risk Get yourself tested every three to six months if you are at high risk and every one to three years if you are at low risk. Anyone who is sexually active is at risk, so even if you are in a monogamous relationship it is a good idea to get tested every few years. In protecting yourself and dealing with the problem before it is spread to others, you reduce the risk of STDs spreading in the general population. You protect everyone by protecting yourself. Testing can be done in doctor's office, a local clinic or via a lab-certified at-home testing service, such as myLABBox.com.  Testing is especially important when you have a new...

Not all amps have an effects loop, but if yours does, you can experiment with placing some of your effects inside your amp's effects loop to give your guitar a richer, more nuanced tone. The effects loop is before the power amp section but after the preamp of your amplifier. You'll see "Effects Send" and "Effects Return" jacks. On some amps these may also be labeled "Preamp Out" and "Power Amp In." Most guitarists who use the effects loop to set up their guitar pedals put the time-based effects in the loop to avoid the washed out sound that can be produced if these effects are fed into the overdrive and distortion of the amp. This set-up can give you a clearer sound if your amp is generating sound that is overdriven or distorted. The sound from your amplifier's preamp section feeds into these effects. Placing modulation pedals in the effects loop will give you a different sound than if you run them through your signal chain directly from your guitar. Experiment with these and see if it suits your style. Moving the volume pedal inside the effects loop allows you to control the entire sound coming out of the amplifier.

Examine your amp. Place your delay and reverb effects in the amp's effects loop. Move volume and modulation into the effects loop.


Not all birds found on the ground are in need of rescue or care. Some bird species raise their young on the ground, including killdeer, plovers, and seabirds as well as all chicken and duck species. Furthermore, identifying whether the bird is a seed or insect eater or whether they are prone to certain diseases will be essential in caring for your bird. When identifying the bird, pay attention to different parts of their body. Juvenile birds have different markings from adult birds, but their species can usually still be determined by their shape, weight, and coloration.  What is their silhouette or shape? How big are they? What markings do they have? Where on their bodies are the markings located? What color are they? Where do the colors appear on their bodies? Are they prey hunters or songbirds? Where did you find them? The woods? A marsh? A meadow? At this stage, you should also check to see if a young bird is a nestling or a fledgling. Nestlings are young chicks who are not yet moving much. They have been pushed or blown out of their nest. Most nestlings will not have developed markings or coloration yet. They will either have no feathers or fluffy downy feathers. Fledglings can flap their wings and are training to fly. They will have a thin layer of feathers and may have some slight markings. It is normal for fledgling birds to be outside of the nest, and it is harmful to capture them. Place the bird on your finger and see if they can grip. If they have a strong grip, they are a fledgling. They are in no need of rescue! If they have a weak grasp or are unable to stay upright, they are likely a nestling. Try to locate their nest before you try to rescue them. The bird may be stunned from an injury. If the bird flew into your window or is found paralyzed on the ground, there is a chance that they are in shock. Birds can recover from shock with rest.  If the bird is alive but unmoving, be aware that they may be suffering from a blood clot or concussion. They require quiet rest in a dark location to recover....

Not all charities are created equal. When making decisions about donating time and money, spend some time figuring out what organizations are most effective.  You want to support causes that make a real impact. Determine which charities make a real impact and which do not. Look for tangible outcomes and real life outcomes. Solid charities will give you a breakdown of where the money goes. For example, look into how much is spent on charitable causes and how much simply goes back into the organization.  Look for verifiable impact. That is, how many people does the charity actually help? What kind of services do they provide? A trustworthy charity will be able to provide real statistics rather than feel good anecdotes alone. It can sometimes make more sense to go deep rather than wide. That is, donate more to a smaller amount of organizations. Your money will go further and you'll have more of an impact. Focus on a handful of worthwhile organizations rather than donating a small amount of money to one or two causes. Reevaluate your cause each year. Charities are subject to change and this is sometimes for the worse. Reevaluate where you're donating your money each year. Watch for changes in infrastructure in existing charitable organizations that may change how your money is being spent. Stay up to date on news articles about existing charities and pay attention to the board of directors. Changes in power could lead to an organizations adjusting its values in a way you dislike.

Evaluate charities. Donate to a few causes you feel strongly about. Reconsider charities each year.


Not all domestic rabbits have lop ears, but all rabbits with lop ears are domestic. Lop ears are when the ears hang down (like basset hound ears) rather than stick back or up. Wild rabbits are usually smaller than domestic rabbits. Wild rabbits weigh in at 2 to 4 pounds. If you think the rabbit is bigger, she's more likely to be domestic. Wild rabbits all have the agouti coloring. That means they have variegated grey, brown, and tan fur. Domestic rabbits also sometimes have this coloring, but unlike their wild cousins, their bellies are usually lighter. They also come in a variety of other colors, including silver, palomino, chocolate, and tan, and they may have markings on their legs (often dark) or shoulder (often white), as well as spots, depending on the breed. Wild rabbits will be afraid of you and likely run as soon as they see you. Domestic rabbits may be more social. They may even come and ask for attention. Domestic rabbits will have a more curved forehead. On the other hand, wild rabbits are more triangular in their faces. Also, wild rabbits have thin ears, meaning you can almost see through them at the ends.

Look for lop ears. Guess at the weight. Check the coloring. Watch for social behavior. Look at the head shape.


Not all drinking water is created equal. Water tastes differently depending on its source, and perhaps your impression of water is based on having only tried one or two specific types. Some differences are subtle, some are obvious immediately, while some take a bit of faith that there is something "special" about the water according to your beliefs or preferences. Here are some of the principal sources of water:   Mains or tap water: This water is usually treated and you can often taste the chemicals. Chlorine is the most well-known treatment agent and few people enjoy its distinctive after-taste. Chlorine kills microorganisms in the water but it can also deplete your body of certain vitamins and harm your beneficial intestinal flora. Filter such water before drinking it. Note that while boiling water will kill most germs, it won't remove chemicals. However, as the chlorine used in water treatment is generally in a gaseous form, one easy way to reduce the chlorine content is to refrigerate the water overnight. The chlorine gas is released and the water tastes better chilled.  Filtered water: Filters can go directly on a tap (faucet) or the water can be filtered through a jug, watercooler, or other system. Filters tend to be charcoal and reverse-osmosis, though there are other types. Most filters need to be changed regularly to ensure effectiveness. This water usually tastes much better than water straight from the tap. See How to choose a home water filter for more information.  Well water: Provided you know that the source of this water is pure and clean as clean, this can be a fantastic way to get the trace minerals your body needs. However, well water is extremely easily contaminated so you need to be constantly vigilant and test it often. If it's confirmed good, then enjoy it as it will usually be very pleasant tasting water.  Distilled water: This water has been heated into steam and then collected and condensed back to water. It's great for an iron and machinery but it's not good as drinking water....

Not all fruits will dry well, so focus only on the ones known to produce excellent results when dried. These include:  Vine fruits such as grapes. Note that grapes produce different types of dried fruits: Zante currants come from from a tiny, seedless black grape; sultanas come from a sweet, seedless green/white grape; and raisins come from large, sweet grapes such as muscat.  Tree fruits such as stone fruit (apricots, peaches, plums, nectarines), mangoes, bananas, apples, figs, dates and pears. Make sure that the fruit you use is mature, firm, and ripe. Fruit that is damaged, unripe, or overripe will lack nutritional value, won't dry as well, and won't taste as good since the sugars aren't at their peak stage of development.

How would you rephrase that briefly using English?

Select fruits that are suitable for drying. Choose ripe fruit.


Not all herbs will freeze well but for those that do, here is what to do. Usually this method works best for soft-leaf herbs such as basil, tarragon, lovage and parsley.  Some herbs can only be frozen as they don't dry, such as chives. Strip the leaves off and place them into freezer bags or containers.  Label and date them as they should keep for up to 3 months. If you want them to last longer, blanch them for a few seconds in hot water and then dip straight into ice-cold water and pop them into the freezer in bags/containers. Blanched herbs will freeze for up to 6 months. If you choose to do it this way, freeze approximately one-third chopped herbs to two-thirds water.  Basil is great pureed with olive oil before freezing in ice cubes (don't add water).  Remove herbs frozen as ice cubes and store in plastic freezer bags.  Remove pieces as needed.

Freeze the herbs for ease of use when cooking. Select appropriate herbs for freezing. Wash and dry freshly picked herbs, as above. Some cooks prefer to freeze herbs in ice-cube trays, so that they have handy little sizes for cooking use.


Not all jobs can be performed effectively from home so examine your strengths and experience to determine if you can make working from home effective for you and your family.  Assess how much money you need to make. Determine how much money you’ll need to make in order to live comfortably. In some cases, you may need to factor in overhead costs, initial cash outlay to get the business started and the amount of time it will take to turn a profit. Tally your monthly bills to help determine the total amount you should make and decide how much money you would like to add to your savings account. Determine if you have the equipment/tools to make your home-based business a success. Knowing what you need in terms of tools should be included in the cost.  In some cases a simple computer and certain software will do the trick. However, if you are running another type of business, such as an embroidery or catering company you may need to purchase certain equipment to get your home based business off the ground. Decide if you need assistance or if you can perform this task as a one man or woman show. Another cost to consider is whether you can do this on your own or if assistance will be required.  For example, if you are starting a house painting company you may need to hire one or two employees to help you complete larger jobs. Find a specific space in your home that you can call your “office.” Even if you plan to do most of your business in the field, you’ll need to have your own space for paperwork and invoicing.  Whether it’s the kitchen table or you can allot for an entire room for an office, identify a space before you begin work. Being self motivated is the key to being an effective “at home” worker. If you aren’t already an organized person you’ll have a rough road ahead.  Use organizational tools and a solid day planner to keep you focused on your schedule.

Not all lipsticks are created equal.  Makeup artists suggest that in order of longevity matte formulas have the most staying power, followed by cream formulas, then liquid lipsticks, with lip glosses coming in last. It is unlikely that you'll find a lip gloss that lasts all day.  The formula is designed to be slippery and shiny.  It may feel comfortable and luxurious on the lips but it will need to be reapplied frequently throughout the day. These are specially designed products that prime the lips for lipstick application and help the color adhere to the lips.  They are available from many different brands. Some makeup artists use concealer or foundation over the lips to similar effect.  This has the added benefit of canceling out the natural color of your lips so that the true color of the lipstick shows up. Reverse lip liner is a colorless product that can be applied to the skin just outside the outline of your lips to provide a barrier and prevent feathering around the edge of your lips. As an alternative, apply concealer in this same area to prevent bleeding and help your lipstick stay in place. Feathering occurs when the lipstick bleeds into the fine lines around the edge of your lips.  These fine lines get more pronounced as we age. The key to long-wearing lipstick is to apply several thin layers.  This is best achieved with a lip brush, which also allows for greater precision and control. A lip brush can help you apply the product neatly and precisely.  It also ensures a more even distribution of product than when lipstick is applied right from the bullet. Experts recommend using a lip primer and a lip liner with a lipstick on top or a liquid lip stain underneath a lipstick.  Then as one layer wears off, the base layer remains intact. Make sure they are similar colors!

Select a matte formula. Invest in a lip primer. Outline your lips with reverse lip liner or concealer. Get a lip brush for precise application. Use several products together for a really long lasting effect.


Not all litters are safe for ferrets. Ferrets have a tendency to roll in or sniff their litter and many ferrets have very sensitive respiratory systems; therefore, a dust-free, unscented litter that does not clump is safest for ferrets.  Denatured wood litter pellets, recycled newspaper pellets, and alfalfa pellets all make good litters. If you run out of regular litter, you can use cat litter if it's unscented and un-clumping in a pinch. You can also use shredded newspapers. Avoid cedar and pine shavings as litters. The chemicals can irritate your ferret's eyes. Your ferret should be able to fit all four of their paws in the litter pan comfortably, so make sure pick a box or pan that's big enough. You also want a litter pan or box with lower sides. Ferrets will have an easier time getting in and out of a litter pan with lower sides. You want to start litter training in the ferret's cage. Set the litter box in the corner of the ferret's cage. Fill it with your chosen litter. Make sure you don't use the litter anywhere else in the cage. You want it to be clear to your ferret they need to eliminate in the litter box. Ferrets are not like cats. They do not instinctively opt to use a litter box; therefore, you need to teach your ferret what the litter box is for. Place some urine and feces in the litter box. The scent will encourage your ferret to go in the area.

Not all neighborhoods, subdivisions, and cities allow clotheslines. Some people believe that they look bad in yards or neighborhoods. Check with your Home Owner's Association or city ordinances. Most loads of clothes use 35 feet of line. The length of line needs to accommodate at least one load. The area you place the clothesline in shouldn't be a high traffic area. Make sure it's not in an area where people or dogs frequently walk. You also don't want the clothesline to hang over anything, like flowers, a pool, or shrubbery.  Don't make the line any longer than that. The longer the line, the more sag the line will  have.  Avoid placing your clothesline under trees that drip sap, leaves, or other material. You also want to avoid placing your clothesline under trees with a lot of birds.  If you want to dry colored clothes, make sure there is a spot in the shade so the colors don't fade. You can spread clotheslines between multiple posts or multiple trees if you plan on drying many loads at one time. When building your clothesline, you want to make sure that it is the proper height. You don't want the clothesline to be too tall so that you can't easily hang your clothes. On the other hand, you don't want the line to be too low so that larger items, such as blankets and sheets, touch the ground. The wood for your posts need to be taller than how high you want the poles. Part of the pole will be in ground. For a 6 ft. clothesline, you will need at least wood that is 8 ft. tall. To make a proper clothesline, you need to purchase the right materials. You will need:  2- 4 x 4 x 10′ treated wood posts 2- 2 x 2 x 8′ treated wood posts 8 - 1/4″ x 6″ hot dip galvanized lag screws (and washers) 2 - 1/4” x 8” galvanized lag bolts 8 – eye hooks 2 – clothesline tighteners 2 – quick links 100 ft clothesline 2 bags Quikrete To make a clothesline, you will have to saw wood, drill holes for bolts, and dig a hole into the ground.

Not all people express anger verbally, so take a look at how she holds herself. Obvious signs of anger include shaking or trembling as well as sweating and a red or flushed face. Not all signs are this obvious though, so consider the following too:  A clenched jaw or clenched fist Avoiding eye contact Turning away from you Crossing arms over her chest Frowning, rolling eyes, or otherwise cold expressions If she uses a mocking or strained tone, as if she is speaking through clenched teeth, she is likely not impressed with you. She may even use a sarcastic tone, mock you, or make fun of you when you're mentioned in conversation or when you try to speak to her. Other signs to watch out for include:  Yelling Shouting Raising her voice Snapping at you The girl may express her anger by dropping her communication with you through phone calls or text messages. She may ignore your calls and voicemails and be unresponsive to your texts. You may find yourself sending out texts to her and not getting your usual quick reply or no reply at all.  If she is texting you back, look for passive-aggressive anger, such as usually short or sarcastic replies or "how do you think I am" when you ask her "what's up?"  If she suddenly starts using periods at the end of her text messages, this could be a sign of anger or aggression.

Notice if she displays closed body language. Listen to the tone of her voice when she speaks to you. Check if she is not answering your calls or texts.


Not all security cameras are Wi-Fi compatible, so before you spend the money to purchase a DVR for your security system, double-check that your cameras will be able to broadcast their streams. You can also use Ethernet-only security cameras, though this will be difficult to do if you have more than one security camera you want to monitor. A DVR stores the footage recorded by your security cameras; if you buy one that has streaming capabilities, you'll be able to connect to it to view live footage as well.  Not all DVRs can stream security camera footage, so make sure that your selected DVR has live streaming capabilities. Your DVR should come from the same company which manufactured your security cameras. If you bought your cameras as part of a package, the DVR may be included. Using an Ethernet cable, plug one end of the cable into the back of your DVR, then plug the other end of the cable into a free "Internet" port on the back of your router. Using an HDMI cable, attach the DVR to a computer monitor or TV. You'll just need to do this for long enough to change the DVR's IP address, after which point you'll be able to access the DVR online. Using the DVR's remote, enter the username and password to view your DVR's dashboard. In most cases, you'll use "admin" as the username, and the password field will be blank. Once you've logged in, you're free to begin setting up your stream's software. You can check your DVR's manual to see if there's a specific set of login credentials you'll need to use.

Not all styles of mustache should be used for all types of faces and hair. Pay attention to the way that your facial hair grows, and where it's the most thick. No point in trying a fu-machu if your hair doesn't stay thick all the way down the side of your mouth. To see how a mustache might look, try editing a picture of you in Photoshop, adding a fake mustache. You can also ask friends and family how they think you would look. If you can do neither, simply look in the mirror and imagine yourself with the mustache of your choice. Shorter mustache styles are best for men with very coarse, thick, and dark hair. Since the style and the hair will be short, these styles will show up better the thicker and coarser the hair. Try out the following short mustache styles:   The pencil: Famously sprouted by John Waters, R. Kelly, and innumerable silent film villains, a pencil mustache looks as if it were drawn thinly on top of the lip with a make-up pencil. To trim one, follow your upper lip line with a trimmer, carefully removing the hair between your nose and your lip, until a thin line is left. The mustache should end at the corner of your upper lip, or just beyond.   The fu manchu: This classic features a slim pencil-like mustache that starts at the upper lip, but continues down the sides of your face until reaching the bottom of your jaw, and sometimes beyond just like a stereotypical Chinese philosopher. Grown slightly bushier and wider, this same basic mustache shape is known as the "horseshoe", which is worn by retired wrestler Hulk Hogan.  The boxcar: A boxcar is a fairly simple mustache, but one that ends just a bit before you reach the corner of your lip. To trim it, leave your mustache alone, but trim a straight line perpendicular to the corner of your lip, so the hair ends just before it. It should look like a perfect rectangle. Don't go to short or you'll end up with a toothbrush moustache, worn by Adolf Hitler and Robert Mugabe. If you want to try out a bushier, burlier mustache, it usually works best with...

Choose a style that suits your face. Try out a shorter style. Try out a longer style. Experiment with combo styles. Keep the ends trimmed. Use a proper grooming regimen to keep your face clean. Shape your mustache.


Not all tequilas are created equal. If you are planning on sipping your tequila and enjoying it like most Mexicans do, be sure to choose tequila that is 100% authentic.  There are tequilas that are "mixtos," meaning that they are made with at least 51% agave and fortified with sugars. Stay away from these. They don't taste much like tequila. Many bartenders and tequila experts recommend choosing a family-owned tequila over a large conglomerate. (We're looking at you, Cuervo.) If you can find a tequila that's part of a small, family-owned business, chances are overwhelming that it will be 100% agave, and simply that it will taste better. Because añejo tequilas are aged for at least a year, they make for better sipping than a tequila that is rushed to maturity or those that are front-loaded with tequila flavor but lack any body or complexity to round it out. These añejos are often compared to aged cognac.   Añejos tend to be more expensive than reposados or blancos, but not outrageously so. You should be able to find a good añejo for under $50. Drink añejos at room temperature. Adding ice to it dilutes the flavor and can mask the tequila's different components. If you become serious about sipping tequila, consider getting a tequila glass to enjoy your añejo in. Many also enjoy the tequila in a snifter. "Sangrita" means "little blood" in Spanish, called this way because of the color of the liquid. The sangrita is non-alcoholic. Pair the sangrita with your sipping tequila in a separate shot glass and take turns sipping the tequila and sangrita. To make sangrita, mix together, then refrigerate:  1 cup fresh-squeezed orange juice 1 cup tomato juice (not V-8) 1 oz fresh-squeezed lime juice 1 tsp grenadine 12 dashes hot sauce — e.g., Cholula

Choose a tequila that is made from 100% agave. Choose an Añejo tequila. Enjoy your tequila with a little bit of sangrita.


Not all types of material will work for making a hoodie, so it is important to choose your fabric carefully. You can go with a heavy or lightweight fabric depending on how warm you want the hoodie to be.  For example, you could go with fleece or a thick stretch cotton (sweatshirt material) for a warmer option. Or, you could go with a jersey or t-shirt material for a lightweight hoodie. Make sure to buy more material than you think you will need. Two yards will likely suffice for an adult sized hoodie. Unfold one of the arms of your sweatshirt. Then, line up the top part of your sleeve with the folded edge of the fabric and the armpit area of the sleeve with the other edge of your fabric. Use your chalk to trace about 1” (2.5 cm) from the bottom of the sleeve and the wrist area to provide adequate seam allowance. Then, cut along the chalk lines.  Make sure that you do not cut along the folded edge. Leave this intact. Repeat this process again to create the other sleeve piece.

Not all women can take it. Your doctor will likely advise against it if:  You could be pregnant You have breast cancer You have fragile bones and are prone to breaking them You are taking aminoglutethimide for Cushing’s syndrome The benefits include that, when used correctly, it is over 99% effective and it doesn’t require you to remember to take a pill each day. Disadvantages include:  Side effects which can’t be stopped until the shot wears off. This may include: irregular bleeding, temporary thinning of your bones, a change in sex drive, weight gain, depression, hair loss, increased hair on the face or body, headaches, nausea, or breasts that are tender. The shot does not protect against sexually transmitted diseases like HIV/AIDS. It may take six to 10 months for you to get pregnant, even after the shot wears off. If you are thinking of getting pregnant sometime soon, the shot may not be a good method for you. Many Planned Parenthood centers charge according to income. If you are worried about the costs, ask about an income-based sliding scale. Potential costs may include:  $0-$100 per injection $0-$250 if you need an initial gynecological exam $0-$20 if you need a pregnancy test before the injection

Not doing this can lead to a point of view breach.  A POV breach occurs when a character knows something that he or she couldn't possibly know from his or her point of view. For example, even though the narrator may know that Paul hit John from behind, John won't know Paul hit him, unless he discovers this information from outside sources or by process of elimination. A POV breach can also take away from the believability of the story as a whole, and undermine the character voices you have worked so hard to create. So watch out for any breaches of point of view. Another issue that can arise is head hopping, where you hop around from 1 character's thoughts to another character's thoughts within 1 scene. Though technically a correct way to do third person omniscient POV, this technique can be confusing for the reader and lead to too many thoughts crowding up the scene.  Be consistent with dialogue tags to avoid confusion. You may also need to use the characters' names if you have multiple characters of the same gender. To avoid confusing your reader and head hopping around, focus on creating a bridge or smooth switch to another character in the scene. Do this by drawing the reader's attention to the character and describing the actions or movements of the character in the scene. For example, if you are shifting from Paul's perspective to John's perspective, you could note: “John rubbed his lower back, where he had been hit. He noticed Paul standing beside him. Could Paul have bumped into him? John thought.” This is a good way to transition to a new viewpoint. Once the new character takes the lead in the action, continue into his or her thoughts or feelings. For example: “John slammed his drink down hard on the bar. Who is the jerk who hit me? he yelled. John noticed Paul, standing beside him. Who is that guy? John thought.” Before trying the third person omniscient perspective in longer work, try it in some shorter writing pieces first. The third person omniscient can be difficult to master on your initial...

Stay in the POV of 1 character until you transition to another character. Use transitions to move smoothly between multiple characters. Signal a transition before shifting to another character's perspective. Have a character take the lead in the action. Experiment with the third person omniscient POV in shorter work.


Not every Android phone or tablet will be able to crack a WPS PIN. The device must have a Broadcom bcm4329 or bcm4330 wireless chipset and must be rooted.

Not every cruise will have the same packing requirements. Take into account what the climate is like where you’ll be going. If it’s a Caribbean tour, for instance, you’ll want to have at least one swimsuit, along with other warm-weather accessories like shorts, tank tops and sandals. For longer trips, these items might comprise as much as half the clothing you bring. Include a pair of khakis or skirt and collared shirt or blouse for places where short sleeves aren’t acceptable. Even if you’re not making stops in Oahu or the Bahamas, you’ll want to plan on throwing in a pair of swim trunks or a bikini. Many cruises feature temperature-controlled pools, hot tubs and steam rooms among the amenities they offer. To take advantage of these amenities, you’ll need the proper swimwear.  If you get away without a swimsuit, your only option will to be to purchase one from one of the ship’s gift shops, which are often steeply overpriced. Lather up with sunscreen and put on your sunglasses to protect yourself while you swim or tan. Toss a jacket into your luggage or carry-on in case you get chilly above deck or at port. Travelers headed to frigid locations like Alaska or Iceland should gear up with a warm, heavy coat (wear this one onto the ship to save room). Beachgoers should also make room in their suitcases for a hoodie or cardigan for those windy nights.  One helpful guideline is to dress in layers, regardless of where you’re headed. That way, you’ll be able to put on and take off clothing as you see fit. You should, of course, choose bulkier layers for cold-weather cruises. For cold-weather cruises, take a hat and scarf and slip a pair of gloves into the pockets of your coat. Unless you plan on hitting the buffet for every meal throughout your trip, class up your wardrobe with a set of formal or resort casual attire. Gentlemen can wear a polo or button down shirt with a dinner jacket and slacks; ladies should pack a skirt, evening gown or party dress. In some instances, certain restaurants and clubs adhere to strict...

Not every defensive player will have the ability to play offense, but if you have the opportunity, go for it. Playing offense gives you insight into what strikers want to do and how they do it so you can better anticipate their moves as a defender. If you don't have the opportunity to play on offense, the next best thing is to talk to friends of yours who are midfielders or forwards. Through them you can learn how they see the field and how they create opportunities to score. Knowing how their mind works will make you a better defender. If an opponent senses that you're afraid to battle with them, they'll run right through you. You can't be a truly good soccer defender if you're afraid to challenge a strong opponent for the ball. You also can't be afraid to foul. While you never want to foul another player, you still want the opposing team to see you as someone who would stop at nothing to keep them from penetrating your side of the field and finding an opportunity to score. Patience is paramount for a defender. Simply running forward and challenging every player that has the ball is aggressive, but it isn't the smartest way to play and you may end up racking up fouls.  Stay on your toes and face the attacking player, presenting as much of your body's surface area as possible. Stagger your legs so you can switch directions quickly. Stay alert and ready to go after the ball at any moment, but avoid lunging (or diving in) for the ball or directly threatening the attacking player. While ready to strike, wait patiently for the attacking player to make their move. Apply pressure and strike when you sense weakness or see the attacking player make even a minor mistake. When you're aggressively defending, it can be easy to get carried away in that mindset. Remember that the referees and the opposing team are people too. If an opposing player falls, help them get back up. Avoid arguing with referees or protesting, even if they've made a bad call. Just shrug it off and keep playing.

Get some experience on offense. Maintain confidence and have no fear. Remain calm and let your opponent make mistakes. Practice good sportsmanship.


Not every older dog will have muscle loss, but many dogs will. Just like humans, dogs may become less active as they get older, due to a number of reasons, including having less energy and having more aches and pains. Not being as active can lead to muscle loss. To help with muscle loss, try to encourage your dog to be more active. If your dog experiences trauma, such as being hit by a car, it may develop lameness in part of its body. In turn, that can lead to muscle loss, as the dog is not as active or isn't using that particular muscle as much. Dogs can develop lameness from other sources, including infection, dislocation of the shoulder, and muscle or bone degeneration. Large breeds, such as German Shepherds and Labradors, are more likely to have joint problems, meaning they are more likely to develop arthritis. Arthritis can lead to muscle loss, since it can make your dog reluctant to move as much. For instance, Labrador retrievers are prone to type II muscle fiber deficiency, which they'll generally show before a year of age in muscle loss. German Shepherds, on the other hand, are more likely to develop fibrotic myopathy, which generally shows up the most in the dog's thigh muscles. Certain dogs, such as greyhounds, will develop exertional myopathy if they are forced to use their muscles too much.

Watch for muscle loss as your dog ages. Pay attention after trauma and other causes of lameness. Look for arthritis in large breeds. Watch for conditions that certain breeds are predisposed to.


Not every player will want the same cards for their deck. Try finding someone who has a card you need (and they don’t want), and see if you can reach a trade agreement. It doesn't have to be card for card. Sometimes trading a few cards for a single rare card is worth the trade.  Game lobbies and shops are great places to meet other players, which can open up your trading opportunities. Check online to see what rare cards are available, or for resources that can help you design a deck. Challenge your friends to a friendly game and wager one another’s cards! This adds an element of competition to card trading, and can be a good way of amassing additional cards that you can use for further trading.  Make sure you don’t mind parting with the cards you put on the line. You don’t want to wager cards that are important to any of your decks. Keep things friendly! Such bets can get heated, even among friends, so make sure you are on good terms and agreeable with the person you are challenging. The prizes for winning local tournaments includes a large number of cards. This can range from the latest tin, to a box or two of the latest card set. If you’re a particularly good player, this can be a great way of getting the game to “pay for itself.”  National tournaments tend to award actual money, rather than cards. Take care when entering tournaments. The price of a winning deck can be quite steep, and the skill and dedication required are immense!

Not everyone can be an acupuncturist, as it requires several specific skills. You will need good hand-eye coordination, steady hands, strong communications skills, and a passion for working with people. As a traditional practice, there are a variety of different schools of thought regarding best practices, such as traditional Chinese, Japanese, and Five Element. Find out what they did to earn their certification, and why they went into the profession. They can also tell you about the difficulties you will encounter in trying to get started, as both a student and practitioner. If you want to work in the United States, then you'll have to demonstrate a command of the English language to work as an acupuncturist. You will have to know how to understand and communicate flawlessly with your patients and review clinical records.  When it comes to acupuncture, it is crucial to know exactly what to say to your patients and to understand when your patients are expressing discomfort or concern. Depending on the school of acupuncture you follow, you may also need to learn the traditional language of that school.

Not everyone has the same body type, and there are some ways you can make a knee-length skirt look better for yours.  Short women or girls look really good in knee-length skirts that fall right below the knees. It’s not true that short women can’t wear knee-length skirts.  If you’re very tall, you will look great in a skirt that falls right at the mid-calf point. That doesn’t mean you can’t try a knee-length skirt, but it’s something to consider. Women over 40 look good in knee-length skirts, which are slimming, and show the calves. There are many styles of knee-length skirts, and different body types look better in some than others.  Knee-length skirts don’t have to be boring, and they don’t have to come in a boxy, shapeless style. There are pencil skirts, full skirts, balloon skirts, and A-line skirts, for starters. Pleated skirts are great on apple-shaped women because they camouflage the stomach area. Hourglass shapes look great in pencil skirts because they slim the thighs while still showing off your curves. Skirts with details on the bottom, like ruffles, also show off the curves.  A-line skirts look great on women with pear shaped bodies. They minimize a larger lower half. If you're very thin, avoid bulky skirts, and try belts!Women with straighter bodies and not a lot of curves could try wearing a baby doll dress on top of the knee-length skirt. This will give the illusion of curves. Since the knee-length skirt is a little simple in concept, you can make it seem different and stand out even more by choosing a bold color.  Think bright colors like bubblegum pink, mustard, lime green, and peach. Pastels work well, but gem colors do too. You could try wearing a knee-length skirt with pleats. Choose it in a bold color, like lipstick pink, so it doesn’t look like you raided grandma’s closet. Knee-length skirts with mermaid hems are another way to make the style seem more up-to-date and very romantic. Consider pairing a red mermaid hemmed skirt with a simple white sleeveless shirt. Pay attention to how...

Not everyone is likely to buy every product or service. In a world with limited resources, you need to prioritize where you market and search for leads. Of course, each business has different markets, but there are helpful questions you can use to find yours, as well as how to use the information:  What age of the person is likely to buy my product/service? (Younger people use more online, older more print and TV.) Is my product gender specific? (Are there blogs, reviewers, and sites that might want to test a product for their viewers?) What other products would someone who likes my product buy? (Can you market your product in similar places and ways as these other similar products?) What interests to people who like my product share? (Where do your potential leads like to hang out, what do they research, what sites do they read, etc?) What problem does my product/service solve? (Find and illustrate the success of your product towards people who are struggling.) This one takes some work, as you'll need to find a company that wants to work with you. But the benefits can be astounding. For a simple example, think of a homemade baker with a killer chocolate chip cookie. Selling to other people is working on its own, but it would be much easier to move a product if you teamed up with a dairy farmer, for example. Since the milk & cookie markets overlap but don't compete, you can each share sales lead information. You're not going to run each other out of business (different products,) but you might just double your sales. This is obviously a silly example, but real-world co-marketers like this are everywhere. Think of a lawn-maintenance service that teams up with landscapers, or a tutoring company that helps watch kids at an after-school program or daycare. Leads can be generated by many different marketing campaigns or can have many different sources.

Create and collect lists of emails, contacts, followers and phone numbers for later sales pushes. Once you have determined sales leads, stay in touch to move the leads from 'sales lead' to 'sales prospect'.


Not everyone needs medical treatment to deal with acne scars, but visiting your dermatologist is a good first step in deciding on treatment. See your dermatologist for an exam to be sure you have acne scars and not another skin condition. Your doctor can then discuss your different treatment options with you, including the risks, possible side effects, and benefits of each, and if at-home remedies may suffice to deal with your scars. Your doctor will apply a potent acid to your skin to burn away the top layers, which lessens the depth or height of scars. This treatment works better on your face and hands than it does on your body, but deep peels can improve the appearance of shallow scars. A dermatological surgeon should do a good evaluation of your skin before you get a chemical peel. You should expect tenderness and peelings for up to 3 weeks, depending on the depth of the peel.  Chemical peels make your skin more sensitive to light for a while, so be sure to protect yourself from the sun. You cannot get a chemical peel if you're pregnant or nursing, have taken the medication Accutane within the last 6 months, or have an underlying skin condition such as eczema, psoriasis, or rosacea. You have to abstain from using retinoid products and bleaches for at least 48 hours before a chemical peel. You can also do chemical peels at home. While weaker than what a dermatologist can offer, these peels are a cost-effective and easy option. Needling and rolling are non-invasive procedures that may minimize acne scarring. Your doctor will roll a needled device over your scars to stimulate the tissue underneath them. You will probably need multiple treatments to see results, but it's a safe and effective scar treatment. Another small surgical procedure called subcision may help improve scar appearance. This is when your doctor loosens the fibers under your scar by inserting needles. This is a more invasive process than rolling, so talk to your doctor about what's best for you. Dermabrasion is a minor medical process in...

Not everyone should do reflexology. If you have any of the following health conditions, refrain from reflexology:  Deep vein thrombosis Thrombophlebitis Cellulite on your feet or your hands An infection A high temperature A high-risk pregnancy Two weeks after a stroke Reflexology is not a medical science. While some people find it effectively helps manage aches and pains, you should not rely on it to treat chronic conditions. Any type of ache or pain that does not go away on its own should be evaluated by a medical professional. If you have a chronic condition, remember reflexology will not cure it. Something like chronic sinus issues, for example, will continue to be an issue even when using reflexology. Think of reflexology as a means to ease symptoms rather than cure a medical ailment.

How would you rephrase that briefly using English?

Refrain from reflexology if you have health conditions. See a doctor for persistent symptoms. Understand reflexology is not a cure.


Not everyone who crosses your path is someone you should seek out as a friend. If a coworker or someone you aren't invested in dislikes you, it may not be pleasant, but you can decide if it's worth it to try to build the necessary bridges and win them over. Not everyone is worth your effort, especially if they are really difficult and you lose nothing by avoiding them. Did you make a mistake? Does the person have a legitimate reason to dislike you? It might be worth it to apologize and try to set the record straight about your behaviors if you think they might be justified in not liking something you did or are doing. Admitting a mistake is different from beating yourself up about it. Everyone makes mistakes. It's important to forgive yourself, even if the other person doesn't. Don't be afraid to say goodbye if the person is actively trying to hurt you. It's okay to prioritize yourself in these situations and remove yourself from the crosshair. Sometimes people rub each other the wrong way and there's nothing to be done but avoid each other, especially if the situation is getting out of control and you are getting hurt.  It can be tempting sometimes to stay and fight, but disengaging is its own form of power. You are standing up for yourself and telling the person that you refuse to be bullied. Disengaging might be avoiding them when it's acceptable to do so, like if you're coworkers but you aren't collaborating on anything. It might also be removing the person from your social media feeds so that you aren't tempted to interact with them. How important is it that this person likes you? Are there other people who do like you? Friends and family? Avoid worrying about one person who has a problem with you, which could be about their own issues rather than anything to do with you. Some people will dislike you because they envy you. Don't let people bring you down because of your successes. If you're feeling down about someone disliking you, do something to help yourself feel better. If you love working out, go to...

Not everything that at first sight looks like a seizure, is a seizure. Some things that are commonly mistaken for a fit are:  A faint of cardio-vascular origin: This is when the heart cannot maintain circulation to the brain and is starved of oxygen, resulting in your pet losing consciousness. A faint of neurological origin: This is when the vagus nerve is overstimulated, telling the heart rate to slow, and resulting in a blood pressure drop that causes your pet to faint. Pain reaction: An exaggerated behavioral response that can mimic a seizure. A faint can be confused with a seizure, because it looks similar when your dog drops to the ground and loses consciousness. However, a faint is caused by inadequate oxygen supply to the brain, which results in your dog briefly losing consciousness. The most common cause of faint is an irregular heartbeat.  Some dogs appear perfectly well and have no other symptoms, whilst others have a history of coughing, heavy breathing, or reluctance to exercise. The key differences between a faint and a fit are:  Before a faint the animal shows no aura signs: the loss of oxygen to the brain and drop in blood pressure happen almost instantaneously. During a faint the animal's muscles are relaxed (in a fit, the muscles are rigid, and legs extended): The muscles are not being given any messages at all. No loss of bladder or bowel control during a faint: The dog is in a state of relaxation, rather than heightened muscular activity. No champing the mouth, or excessive salivation: A faint does not last long enough for enough saliva to be produced for your dog to drool. On average, a faint lasts no longer than 30 seconds: An average seizure lasts 2 to 3 minutes. After a faint the animal acts as if nothing has happened (no post-seizure signs): Once circulation is restored, the dog acts normal again. The longest nerve in the body, the vagus nerve, passes along the neck. When pressure is applied to this nerve, such as when a dog pulls on his collar, it can cause a dramatic slowing of the...

Not knowing what you want or not being able to decide often leads to feelings of worry or uncomfortableness. At lot of this worry comes from being afraid of making a wrong decision. As you begin to make decisions about your life, keep your focus on the present or the near-present. Trying to go too far into the future can lead to stress. Research shows that our ability to predict what we’ll want in the future is skewed, so you can only make decisions that are right for you in the present with the information you have now. Don’t focus so much on getting it right for your future-self. Making decisions can be difficult and scary. You may need to decide what you want from life, or you may need to decide how to get what you want after you know. If you don’t know what you want, making decisions can be difficult. Learning how to make decisions can help you become better at deciding what is right for you. Start with small decisions first, so that you become more comfortable and confident in your ability to make decisions for yourself. Not making any decisions at all is also a deciding choice. Sometimes, not making a decision at all often causes more regret than making any decision. Being able to make informed decisions is helpful because poor decisions or no decision at all can sometimes bring about feelings of pain or regret. You can start building these skills by stating specifically the decision that you want to make.  You can write down the decision or state it mentally. You need to make it known to yourself what decision has to be made so you can start working towards what you want. For example, if you are trying to decide which college major to choose, you would write down, “Decide between engineering and nursing.” If you are trying to decide how to deal with a friend, write, “Decide how to deal with my friend who makes me feel bad sometimes.” In this stage, you should gather as much information as you can about your options. Making an informed decision is extremely important because this helps you feel like you...

Focus on the present. Start by making small decisions. State the decision that needs to be made. Gather more information. Look for alternatives. Evaluate your options.


Not listening to what you say is a red flag—but how much of a red flag it is depends on the circumstances. At best, he is seriously misguided, and at worst, he is potentially violent and very unsafe. You always have a right to say no; this is important in considering whether and how to protect your safety. Learn how to  read emotions. A tense or harsh tone of voice may indicate someone is angry or upset. Facial cues might indicate the same, such as drawn in eyebrows, dilated nostrils, and a hard, piercing stare. If you notice these signs, try to end the interaction as soon as possible, or get in sight of others. If you feel that this guy is likely to hurt you or make you extremely uncomfortable, you're probably right. If you think that he isn't horrible but just misguided, then you're probably right. Err on the side of playing it safe. You don't want to get hurt. Learn to trust your gut. How do you feel in your body when you are around this person? Does your heart beat fast in alarm? Do your fists clench? Do you find yourself holding your breath? All of these could be bodily signs that this person is making you uncomfortable, even if he has a smile on his face. Direct confrontation may lead to escalation, so avoid telling him off; he might start threatening you or turn violent. Trust your instincts and find ways to either end the interaction or get around others. For example, you might look at your watch and suddenly exclaim that you are late for a meeting or appointment. This can be a good way to get away from the person. It also demonstrates that someone somewhere is waiting on your arrival, and will be wary if you are late. Some men become loud, threatening, or violent if a woman keeps saying no. He is less likely to do this if you are somewhere with more witnesses, and you are more likely to run into a kind bystander who can help you out.  Crowded areas are far safer than isolated places. Look for other women. Many women can recognize the signs that a woman is being harassed by a guy, and can swoop in to...

Not much beats watching a great film at the movies! If a good film has just come out, text your guy friends to come and watch it with you. Even an average movie is funnier if you’re watching it together! If you’re booking online, try to do it at the same time so that you can all sit together. Nothing boosts the spirit of a group like having some food! Decide on somewhere to eat and then head out together. If you don’t know where to eat, throw out a few ideas to your friends. Burgers, curries, steak and chips, and Mexican are all delicious options. If you and your friends have a favourite place to eat, make it a weekly tradition. For example, you could have a Mexican Monday and go to a taco restaurant, or on Thai Tuesday you could grab a Pad Thai together. The pools are a great way to cool down and are a fun place to catch up with friends. Have a bomb competition off the diving boards, go down the hydro-slides, have races in the pools, or simply chill and catch up. Mix it up and try out the pools in a different suburb or the neighbouring town. Doing everyday activities together is a great way to bond with your friends. Catch a ride with your friend to your local gym and workout together. This is a great way to push yourself further during your workout. If you’re doing weights, take turns spotting each other. You’ll need to find a friend that goes to the same gym as you, otherwise, they won’t be allowed in. Alternatively, ask your gym if your friend can have a free trial.

Not only are you more likely to be perceived as educated and intelligent, you are more likely to actually become more intelligent due to the probability that you will have more intellectual discussions and be more challenged. Being around educated individuals will help increase your intellectual stimulation, help further your knowledge base, and help further your own education. Impressions are important to conveying a great deal of information including intellect and education. Particularly affecting the perception of education is the amount of exposed skin others can see. The more modest and formal your appearance the more others will focus on what you are saying and thinking, rather than what you are wearing.  Wear modest and formal clothes that fit well. Make sure your clothing is ironed and stain-free. Keep your hair neat. Have good hygiene. Remove facial jewelry. Keep your shoes, fingernails, and teeth clean. Watch out for bad habits or nervous habits such as nail biting, hair twirling, or chewing on pens. You want to communicate confidence in yourself, your education, and your intelligence. While these habits don't necessarily show a lack of education, they will cause you to be perceived as anxious, nervous, or uncomfortable. If you feel the urge of a bad habit coming on, try to actively refocus your mind on the other person or the conversation. There is a cultural component among the educated, that includes music, art, theatre, and cultural experiences. Taking part in these activities will increase your exposure to various topics, spark your creativity, and provide you with conversational material which illustrates your education. Some cultured areas to consider include:  Attending theatre performances or the opera. Listening to classical music. Visiting museums and art galleries. Reading books, journals, and the newspaper. While this may seem like an odd factor, using your middle initial in your name is largely regarded as an indication of intelligence and education. This appears to be due to the fact...

Not only does quitting smoking have far-reaching effects for your overall health, it may also help to improve your good cholesterol levels. Talk with your doctor about smoking cessation aids and programs that might help you quit. Some studies indicate that certain types of alcohol, such as red wine, might help in lowering cholesterol, but this is only true if you drink it in moderation, which is no more than 1 drink daily for women and no more than 2 drinks daily for men. However, if you don’t drink, don’t start!

Not only does regular exercise reduce the likelihood of heart disease and other illnesses, it has also been shown to treat both depression and anxiety. There are various explanations for why this occurs. First, exercise releases endorphins, a feel-good chemical in the brain that improves mood. It also reduces certain immune system chemicals that cause depression and raises the body temperature, which promotes relaxation.  Regular exercise also helps you get in shape and improve your overall appearance, which for many people, is enough to rid them of their self-doubt. Endorphins help to inhibit your body’s stress response, which lowers your risk for feeling anxious or developing symptoms of panic throughout the day. Some studies show that exercise helps to alleviate symptoms of depression and anxiety just as well as medication. Even just 10 minutes of physical exercise can help alleviate anxiety and depression symptoms as much as a 45-minute workout.  Exercise can lower your baseline anxiety or the level of tension or anxiety you experience daily. If you experience a high level of anxiety symptoms daily, exercise can decrease the number or severity of these symptoms that you experience. People who suffer from anxiety tend to turn to alcohol to ease their tension and nervousness. Though alcohol may ease symptoms temporarily, it will actually make them worse in the long run.According to the Dietary Guidelines of America, if you are female, you should have no more than one drink per day. If you are a male, you should no more than two per day. Because alcohol is a depressant, is temporarily suppresses your feelings of anxiety or tension, however, when the alcohol is metabolized and rids the body, your anxiety and depression will rebound. Similar to a spring that has to be pressed down harder and harder, your emotions are held down even more by the alcohol. Once the alcohol is gone, the spring will jump even high than it is when it’s just sitting there. This rebound means that you will likely experience more...

Not only is it polite, it also allows you to show off more of the German you are learning!  Use the formal phrase "Wie geht es Ihnen?" (vee gate ess eenin), when asking strangers or acquaintances, “How are you?” Use the informal phrase "Wie geht es dir?" (vee gate ess deer) or simply “Wie geht’s?” (vee gates) (mainly children)to ask someone you know well, or a child, "How are you?" Generally speaking, to be polite use the formal version with someone you don’t know, unless they begin using the informal with you. This is especially the case in settings involving areas like business, education, and government. If someone asks, you can respond to the question “Wie geht es Ihnen?” or “Wie geht’s” in a variety of ways.  You could simply say: “Gut” (“goot”), “good”; “Sehr gut” (“zair goot”), “very good”; or “Schlecht” (“shle-cht”), “bad.” However, a more extensive response is more polite. You can say “Mir geht es…” (“mere gate es…”), followed by “gut,” “sehr gut,” or “schlecht” to mean “I am doing…” “well,” “very well” or “bad,” respectively. A good conversation starter is to ask people about their backgrounds. Try these questions, using the formal / informal version as appropriate:  “Woher Kommen Sie?” (“Voh-hair co-men zee?”) / “Woher kommst du?” (“Voh-hair comst do?”) = “Where are you from?” “Ich komme aus [insert place name]” (“Ich come-uh ow-s”) = “I am from [insert place name]”. For example, “Ich komme aus den USA” (Ich come-uh ow-s dane oo ess ah), “I am from the United States.” “Wo wohnen Sie?” (“Voh voh-nen zee?”) / “Wo wohnst du?” (“Voh voh-nst do?”) = “Where do you live?” (in the sense of “Which country, state, or city, etc. do you reside right now?” “Ich wohne in [insert place name]” (“Ich voh-nuh in”) = “I live in [insert place name].” For example, “Ich wohne in Chicago.”

Not only is knitting relaxing, but you end up with a useful product at the end of your hard work. Knitting requires a little practice and some supplies, so head to your local craft shop and pick up needles, yarn, and an instruction book. Practice simple patterns and items first, like scarves. Using materials you already have around the house, make small models, wreathes or wall hangings.

Not only is olive oil an unsaturated fat and better for your heart, it can also help to prevent cancer. Try dipping your bread in olive oil, instead of covering it in butter. Grilled octopus or calamari is much lighter, healthier, and far more delicious than fried calamari.If calamari on the menu is fried, ask if the chef can grill it instead. Tomatoes, onions, and garlic contain antioxidants, and can be part of a well-balanced diet.  Be careful with white sauce; Cream-based sauces have far more fat than red sauces. Watch out for pesto. It may be green, but it isn't as healthy as it looks. Pesto is very high in fat, containing not only a lot of olive oil, but also cheese and nuts. Opt for tomato-based sauces, such as marinara, since these are usually the lowest in fat and calories. While cheese in moderate portions can be good for you, containing protein and vitamins, it’s also packed with saturated fat and cholesterol.Going easy on the cheese will help you maintain a healthy balance in your meal.  Avoid adding Parmesan to your food at the table as well. This adds fat and calories without adding much flavor.

Choose olive oil instead of butter. Avoid food that is fried, such as mozzarella sticks. Pick sauces made with a tomato base, garlic, onions, olive oil, and spices. Ask for half the amount of cheese.


Not only will they make her laugh but they will make her think at the same time, and that is something all girls love: stimulating their funny bone and their mind. You don’t have to limit your imagination; be true to your own warped sense of humor and viewpoint because that’s really the whole point. Being yourself in a fun and funny way – there’s  nothing sexier than that. Some examples could be:  What would your superpower choice be? If you could only wear one color for the rest of your life, what would be it? if you could be any animal for a day, which would you choose? You can beam one person to live like an Inuit in the North Pole never to be seen by society again. Who is it? What would be the hardest food to give up? Swing on the swings, slide on the slide, climb the jungle gym, play king of the hill, and just let it all hang out. There’s nothing more fun than getting in touch with your inner child. When you’re in the room together narrate what’s happening, what you’re thinking, what she’s thinking, and make it different genres: drama, noir, romcom, detective/thriller, action movie, or superhero movie. She can join in and you can switch narrators. Have a little quality time at the diner, coffee shop, shopping, or doing just about anything while in your PJ’s. You can’t help but feel a little silly and have a little fun. Can you do a Scottish accent? English? Hindu? Even if you’re not good at it you’ll both have a lot of fun creating new identities and speaking in a foreign accent. Get old school by bringing back this game from your childhood. Just make sure you both agree to keep the dares safe and legal because it’s no fun going from silly to incarcerated or hospitalized. Mix in an assortment of hot and cold, sweet and savory, spicy and mild. Chocolate is usually a must, and it’s a great idea to touch her lips with something cold then switch it out with something hot.

Not only will this help you build strength, it will offer a good method of stretching your muscles thoroughly. There are many types of yoga you can do. For a more gentle experience, you could try Hatha or restorative yoga. For a harder workout, consider trying Bikram or power yoga. Before you begin any workout, especially if it is an aerobic exercise, you should consider doing some dynamic stretching or dynamic warm-ups. Dynamic stretches should get your body moving and warmed up, putting the muscles you will be using through their full range of motion.  Start with some simple moves, such as high knees, heel kick backs, then straight leg lifts forward, back, and out to the side. Try doing leg circles in both directions. Big arm moves are very effective for increasing blood flow. Arm raises in front, out to the sides, triceps press backs, overhead reaches, shoulder circles, rowing motions, can all accompany leg moves and improve the warm up.  Stretch your spine. You can do this by rounding your back as you bend down to try and touch your toes. Stand up slowly and then extend your back in the opposite direction. Repeat this as many times as you like, ideally about five or six times.  Head and neck moves should be done after shoulders and should only be combined with spinal warmup moves such as rounding the spine and arching the spine. Regardless of what type of exercise you have done, spend 15 to 20 minutes stretching your muscles slowly and carefully. Stretching regularly can help improve flexibility, range of motion in your joints, and may decrease the risk of injury.  Any stretching done before you run must be a dynamic stretch. Static stretches, in which you elongate your muscle and hold it for several seconds, should not be done as part of a warm-up. Doing so can reduce your performance.  Remember to stretch your legs, back, chest, shoulders, and arms. If you are outside, and it is cold, put on some warm, dry sweatpants and a sweatshirt while you are stretching to keep yourself and your muscles warm.

Not only will you need some ready-to-split logs of appropriate length, which is approximately the length of your forearm, and your trusty axe, but you should also ensure your safety by equipping yourself with:  Work gloves Workboots (preferably steel-toe) Safety glasses (optional, but recommended) If you don't have a chopping block already, your most likely choice will be a large, thick piece of un-split wood. A flared stump also makes an excellent chopping block.  If you choose a thick piece of wood, look for one that is knotty, as these will be more resistant to the force of your axe and last longest as a chopping block. Elm wood has a grain to it that makes it naturally split resistant. If an elmwood chopping block is available to you, you should take advantage of it.  A recycled tire around the top of your chopping block can stabilize pieces of wood that don't balance well on your chopping block.  A chopping block should always have yield; chopping on a hard surface can do damage to your axe or, in the case of a dangerous deflection, yourself. Take the piece of wood you want to split and balance it on your chopping block. You may have to adjust your wood to get it to stand correctly due to natural irregularities, like splits or knots, in the wood growth. Your log should be as stable as possible, with the area you are striking pointing toward the position where you will be chopping wood. Make sure there are no twigs, loose stones, slick mud, or anything else underfoot that might cause you to slip. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and address your wood and chopping block head-on. It is important that you keep your legs spread shoulder-width apart. Poorly balanced wood or irregular grain/knots in the wood can cause your axe to hit a glancing blow. Keeping your legs shoulder-width apart keeps you safest from landing your axe on your foot or toes. Take your axe in both hands with your dominant hand near the head of the axe and your non-dominant hand toward the end of the handle. A proper swing is...

Not quite the same as a liquid liner, cream based eyeliners are applied with a thin brush and a thick liner paste. Cream eyeliners give smoother lines than a pencil and are very similar in appearance and application as a liquid liner. Believe it or not, you an can actually make your very own liquid eyeliner using a mixture of loose powder eyeshadow and water. Mix the two together to form a thin paste, and use a clean eyeliner brush to draw it on. When things are heated, they typically melt down into a liquid; the same process applies for pencil eyeliners. Use a lighter to heat up the end of an eyeliner pencil until it becomes very soft. Wait 10-15 seconds, and then draw on the creamy pencil over your lash line. Make sure it is not hot.
