Avoid having to brake or even decelerate on a curve. If you ever need to take avoiding action, don't brake and swerve at the same time. Be very cautious about using your engine brake or retarder (exhaust brake / Jacobs brake / Telma / Voith etc. Jackknifing starts as a skid, so do your utmost to avoid skidding. Keep both tractor and trailer properly maintained. Modern anti-lock braking systems, first developed for aircraft to stop them skidding on the runway, are now fitted to heavy vehicles."
article: A heavily laden vehicle is unlikely to jackknife. Jackknifing usually occurs with empty trailers or when the weight of the load is badly distributed, providing too little traction where it's needed. The vehicle and trailer brakes are designed for a full load, and are far too powerful for an underweight trailer. When strong brakes are applied, the wheels could lock up, and cause skidding. It helps to drive a safe distance behind other vehicles and to try to anticipate what may happen ahead, allowing yourself plenty of time to pull up, especially on slippery roads and when you're going downhill. Apply your brakes while the vehicle is traveling in a straight line as you approach a curve. Slow down a little more than necessary, then release your brakes before you begin the turn. Apply a little power as you turn. This should prevent the drive wheels from losing traction. If you approach slowly enough, you'll find that you'll be able to speed up as you negotiate the curve. Downhill turns are especially prone to jackknifing. If you're going down a steep hill and wish to turn off to the left or right, don't assume that the trailer will follow you. The trailer tries to continue straight on down the hill due to its momentum and gravity. You must slow it right down or even come to a halt before turning. When you're satisfied that you've checked the trailer's momentum, then you can pull it around the corner. Brake first to slow the vehicle down as much as possible, then release the brakes in order to swerve. In this way, you'll remain in control of the vehicle. Once you've swerved, you can re-apply the brakes if necessary. If you ever need to do an emergency stop, for example, if a child runs into the road in front of your truck, don't stamp on the brake pedal. You should press it. Then press the clutch pedal to prevent the truck from traveling further. Hold the steering wheel with your hands in the 10 minutes to 2 position, keeping your thumbs out of the wheel. Press them against the rim, and lock your elbows inward. ) on a slippery surface. This could lock up the drive axle and cause jackknifing. An engine brake or retarder only acts on one axle, whereas the brakes act on all of the wheels. If you need to use the retarder to descend a hill, but the road is slippery, slow the vehicle down by braking gently first, then apply the retarder carefully. The same would apply if you were to engage a low gear. If, however, your vehicle starts to skid, take your foot off the brake immediately and correct the skid as you would with a rigid vehicle How to Control a Skidding Car. If it isn't corrected, it will be aggravated by the trailer pushing from behind and the vehicle will jackknife. Uneven brakes, worn tires and faulty suspension components increase the risk of losing control. They can sense tire skid and automatically adjust braking force to prevent wheel lockup.

Sit down on the floor mat. Put both your legs straight out. Put both of your hands on your toes and stretch for 15 seconds. Separate both legs as widely as you can. Bring both of your legs together. Bounce both of your legs up and down for 20 seconds. Bring both legs out straight. Point your legs straight up in the air. Try to bring your right leg back and over your head."
article: This exercise should only be tried when you are flexible. You may need to follow a regime of improving your flexibility first, otherwise you will find this exercise next to impossible. You can do this by jogging, doing jumping jacks or running on the spot for at least 10 minutes. Extend your right leg straight out in front of you. Gently stretch for 10 seconds. Switch over to do the same with your left leg. Stretch for 10 seconds. At this point, you may find that it isn't happening as well as you'd like. That's finetake all the time you need and keep working on this step until you get it. Put both hands in the middle of your legs, and lean down. Stretch for 15 seconds. Your legs should form a butterfly shape. Do this gently. Lean to the right for 20 seconds, then lean to the left for 20 seconds. Have them above your head and keep them up for 30 seconds. You can choose to stop here if wished, as your legs are now over your head. Or, you can go one further with the next step. When you have achieved this, then try to bring back your left leg as well. At this point, realize that this is exceptionally hard to do, so do not push it. It can take a very long time to do this successfully, perhaps even a year or two before it works for you. The second foot is harder to do than the first, because you have to get it beyond the first. Whichever leg is less flexible, do first.

article:
After rinsing your brushes, take a clean towel or paper towel and gently squeeze the extra water out of your brushes. Don't wipe your brushes against the towel because this can cause the bristles to loosen and fall out. And never shake out the extra water, which can also loosen the bristles. After squeezing out the extra water, lay your brush over the edge of the table with the bristles facing downward. This will maintain the shape of the brush and prevent extra water from seeping into the head of the brush. Put a towel under the wet brushes. Allow your brushes to dry completely overnight before you use them again. Never let your brushes dry while standing upright -- this can rust any metal parts of the handle and also loosen the glue in the head where the bristles meet the handle. Once your brushes are dry, gently fluff them out. Use your fingers to reshape your brushes if needed. You can also get the bristles slightly damp to reshape them. Hold your brushes in the steam from a garment steamer for a few seconds, then reshape the surface gently with your fingers. Try holding them in the steam from a tea kettle spout if you don't have a garment steamer. Let the brush cool before you use it.
