Q: A box with suspiciously few images or text blocks on it is likely counterfeit. Most product labels and boxes (or other packaging) have a whole host of information printed on them, from bar codes and trademark and patent information to recycling symbols. Counterfeiters often don't want to spend the time to reproduce every detail, so they'll likely leave some of this stuff off. Also look for manufacturer contact information. Most reputable companies will provide a phone number or at least an address at which consumers can call them. China is the source of most counterfeit products. Of course, many legitimately produced products are also made in China, but a "Made in China" sticker on an already suspicious product is a red flag. You should also be suspicious if no country of origin is listed on either the packaging or the product itself. Counterfeiting rings will sometimes remove a "Made in China" sticker when importing fake products, and producers of counterfeits will sometimes simply leave off the country of origin designation. Just about any product that could pose some sort of safety risk will have one or more safety certifications on its label. Some counterfeiters products may omit a safety certification label altogether, while others will often include fake marks on their products. The UL (Underwriters Laboratory) label is the most common safety certification, particularly in the U.S. (the competing ETL mark is also a major certification in the U.S.). In Europe, the CE (the abbreviation doesn't officially stand for anything) marking is required on electrical products, and in Canada the CSA (Canadian Standards Association) mark is common. Look for at least one of these marks on electrical products. Low-quality products that don't claim to be brand-name may also simply use a counterfeit certification mark. Faked marks are usually, but not always, easy to spot. UL requires hologram marks for most products from China and for some products regardless of country of origin. If the certification mark is present only on the packaging, but not on the product itself, there's a good chance the product is fake.
A: Treat very plain boxes with suspicion. Look for a "Made in China" tag on high-end products. Look for a safety certification label on electrical products.

Q: This will make it easier to work under the hood. You can also use a drop light or other supplemental lighting if you deem it necessary. Most belts will be found on the side of the engine block. Serpentine belts are easily identified because they weave through several pulleys. V-belts are looped around two pulleys and there are two or more belts overlapping at a point, forming a V-shape. You should replace the belt: if it is frayed or tearing. if it has cracks or missing chunks. if the belt has coolant or oil on it. These conditions make the belt incapable of properly running its components, which can lead to major problems for your engine. If for any reason you cannot locate an accessory belt or gain easy access to it then you should take your vehicle to professional.
A: Park your car in a well lit place. Locate the belt in question.

Q: Forget about emailing for months and getting all worked up over email. The longer you leave it before you meet, the less likely it is to happen. Ask for a coffee date in the first two weeks of emails. This will save you a lot of time and energy and disappointments. If the other person doesn't agree to meet, move on and don't worry about it. There are plenty more. People tend to respect decisive partners. So decide/suggest the cafe, time and date. If the person can't make it when you suggest, reschedule within reason. The person will get the impression that you are not timid and are comfortable making decisions. This is good, although being pushy, demanding, or adamant is not the image you want to convey, either; find that comfortable median. If she suggests a time or location that is more convenient to her, be as accommodating as possible. By keeping your cool, you will stay on your game during the date, not complicate things with "high" expectations, and thereby avoid disappointment. The goal is to have fun and see if there's potential chemistry, not to get serious and find out ASAP if you've found your ultimate soul mate. Talk about yourself enough to let her get to know you, but don't brag about all your accomplishments or unload all your troubles. Don't mention past partners or that you haven't been dating for a long time. Just have some fun and enjoy.
A:
After an introduction, suggest meeting for coffee and a chat to see if you like each other. Choose the time and place if you're making the invite. Set your expectations low before the first date. Ask enough questions to keep the conversation flowing, but don't ask a long series of unrelated personal questions as if you are conducting an interview. Be relaxed during your date together.
