Safety rules for online dating
There are many stories out there about the perils of online dating. Some are urban legends,
and some are alarmist or driven by contempt. Others ring true because we hear them from
friends and or read about them in the newspaper. The truth of the matter is that yes, there are
creeps out there who prey on people who reveal personal information on the internet. It is also
true that there are basic precautions you can take to keep them at bay. Follow these strategies
to date online safely:
I) Stay anonymous
This is basic, but it is easy to let things slip in your initial excitement when someone
contacts you. First, only use dating services that do not disclose personal information. Second,
don’t reveal identifying information about your neighborhood, apartment building, or workplace.
Third, if you have children, do not name them or their school.
II) Meet in a public place
It is not a good idea to go hiking on a secluded trail or rafting down a river on the first date.
Instead, meet at restaurant, coffee shop, or mall some distance away from your home. Carry
your cell phone and keep it on at all times. At your meeting, if you have any reason to feel uncomfortable or unsafe, leave.
III) Go with your instincts
Usually, everything checks out and the person you meet is normal. If your gut tells you otherwise, trust your intuitive judgment.

JOB INTERVIEW: ESCAPE THE PITFALLS
It begins even before you say your first word in an interview. By the time the interviewer
walks toward you, an opinion is already being formed. There you sit waiting to give your
answers to questions you’ve prepared for, while you are already being judged by your
appearance, posture, smile or nervous look.
NONVERBAL PITFALLS TO WATCH FOR:
The Handshake: It’s your first encounter with the interviewer. The person holds out his
hand and receives a limp, damp hand in return — not a very good beginning. Your handshake
should be firm, not bone-crushing, and your hand should be dry and warm.
Your Posture: Stand and sit erect. We’re not talking “ramrod” posture, but show some
energy and enthusiasm. A slouching posture looks tired and uncaring. Check yourself out in
a mirror or on videotape.
Eye Contact: Look the interviewer in the eye. You don’t want to stare, as this shows
aggression. Occasionally, glance at the interviewer’s hand as he is speaking. By constantly
looking around the room while you are talking, you convey a lack of confidence or discomfort
with what is being discussed.
Your Hands: Gesturing or talking with your hands is very natural. Getting carried away
with hand gestures can be distracting. Also, avoid touching your mouth while talking. Watch
yourself in a mirror while talking on the phone. You are probably using some of the same
gestures in an interview.
Don’t Fidget: There is nothing worse than people playing with their hair, clicking pen tops,
tapping feet or unconsciously touching parts of the body.
Preparing what you have to say is important, but practicing how you will say it is imperative.
The nonverbal message can speak louder than the verbal message you’re sending.

PERFECT MASSAGE
Let’s face it, sometimes we could all use a good back rub. Massages have been proven to
: reduce stress, improve sleep, relieve certain types of muscle pain, improve posture, and relieve
soreness (especially from sports and other related fitness activities). A massage also improves
circulation and flexibility. Increased circulation of the blood helps you to eliminate toxins, feel great,
and promote healthy bodily functions. Massage therapy has also been known to provide a more
comfortable pregnancy. What a great gift for the mom-to-be.
Here are some massaging tips that hit the spot.
• Start with the shoulders and work your way down. The trick is to knead and roll rather
than pinch or lightly stroke. Be careful not to rub directly on the spine, because the skin is
thinner there.
• Use rhythmic movements and try to keep them consistent. It’s best not to rub longer in
one spot than in another unless asked.
• When massaging the neck, place your thumbs on the sides of the neck, curving your
fingers over the top of the shoulders. This area is more sensitive for some than others. It’s
best to ask the person.
