Ten Easy Ways to Improve Your Resume.
In my line of work, I see hundreds of resumes, and I often see the same patterns over and over again. I frequently observe resume tendencies that are not necessarily mistakes, yet the jobseekers behind these resumes could have much nicer, cleaner, more readable resumes if they just tweaked a few things. And none of these tweaks are hard to accomplish. Even if your resume has other problems, you’ll see significant improvements if you make these 10 easy fixes.
1. Use a bulleted style to make your resume more reader-friendly. Given that employers screen resumes for between 2.5 and 20 seconds, they will find your resume a lot more readable if you use bullet points instead of paragraph style. It’s just easier to read…

10 Ways That Could Save Your Life (10 Ways for Reducing Blood Pressure).
When most people are told they have high blood pressure (or Hypertension) it comes as quite a shock. With many people being diagnosed between the ages of 25-45, it is fast becoming a great concern for both the individual and their young families.
The problem is, it has no early symptoms. You feel good, lifes great. Yes, you may be a little unfit and you could eat better, but generally you feel fine.
If youre lucky, youll get a warning. Some people will have dizzy spells whilst for others the early warning comes as a mild heart attack. If you are one of the lucky ones who get the warning, dont take it lightly.
Hypertension is part of the collective term Cardiovascular Disease. Cardiovascular Disease encompasses high blood pressure, high cholesterol, heart failure, and stroke. It is the biggest killer in the western world with 696,947 deaths in 2002 in the US alone.
When blood pressure is measured, you get two numbers: the Systolic (top number), and the Diastolic ( bottom number). Of most concern is the diastolic reading. A reading of 80-90 is now considered pre-hypertension. This means that youre not in danger yet but it would be a good idea to start modifying your lifestyle. If your diastolic blood pressure is over 90, then you have high blood pressure and you should get medical advice immediately. Getting on top of it early can make all the difference.

Fifteen Ways to Save Time in the Kitchen.
1. Always Keep Your Counter Tops Free of Clutter: making meals can be hectic enough without having to tidy up first.
2. Clean as You Cook: After all of your prep work is done, and your meal is cooking, make sure to wash and put away any knives, spoons, cutting boards etc…that you have used. There will be less to wash after dinner, and you will have a clean, uncluttered space for serving your meal.
3. Keep Your Kitchen Well Stocked: Nothing makes cooking more of a hassle than getting started and having to run to the store for a key ingredient. Always keep your pantry well stocked with frequently used items such as spices, rice, pasta, beans, canned tomatoes/sauce. Your refrigerator should also be kept stocked with things like onions, cheeses, condiments and salad items. Buy Bagged Salad Greens: Take advantage of all of the washed, pre-cut salads that are available today. Add some tomato and cucumber slices and some bottled dressing, along with some roast chicken from last nights dinner, and Voila! you have a salad that is also a meal by itself.

3 Ways To Save Fuel And Energy With Magnets.
The theory behind using a powerful magnetic field to improve fuel burn in combustion engines is nothing new. Magnetic fields were use to improve the combustion of fuel as early as 1940s. The US air force used magnets on their Mustang aircraft and produced greater range and performance from poor quality fuel. In 1952, Felix Bloch and Edward Mills Purcell were jointly awarded a Nobel Prize for their work on magnetic fields on solid, liquid and gas substances.
There are three ways magnets save energy and fuel.
Attach a magnet to the fuel lead pipe of your burner. The magnet conditions the fuel allowing greater combustion. This happens immediately. You produce more heat for the same amount of fuel and harmful emission is cut. I have Calorgas (Liquid Petroleum Gas) central heating. Since attaching a magnet, my direct debit has been cut by 110%. If your boiler is old and inefficient, instead of buying a new boiler, try a magnet first.

“We’ve all seen her that one woman who is just so hot that every guy is too intimidated to approach her. But what if some one was willing to do it, and what if that someone was you? The simple truth is that the more attractive a woman is the more likely it is that every other guy is too scared to talk to her. So, here are 10 tips to put yourself ahead of the “pack” by learning how to talk to super-attractive women.”
1. Recognize when she’s receptive and when she’s not. “It’s important that you cultivate the ability to recognize when a woman is “open and receptive” to you, and when she’s not. When she looks at you, does she look away? Does she look down or to the side when she looks away? As you become better and better at seeing receptive “states” in women, you’ll find that your success will improve substantially.”
