How to Block calls on Apple iPhone

2011-11-18T07:14:00.001-08:00

Learn how to block calls and messages on an Apple iPhone.

Sometimes you just don’t want people calling you, from telemarketers to former relationships and even that crazy uncle that no one in the family really wants to talk to.

Unfortunately, if you have an Apple iPhone there is no native option to block incoming calls. If you want to get an app that blocks calls you’ll have to jailbreak your phone. If you’d like to jailbreak your iPhone we recommend PC World’s breakdown which has options for every version of the iPhone.

Now that you have a jailbroken iPhone we recommend the app called iBlacklist. This particular app allows you block calls and SMS from individuals as well as callers using blocked or unknown numbers. iBlacklist costs $12.99 and isn’t on the Apple store. You’ll need Cydia, which is an alternative app store for jailbroken iPhones.

Okay, lets get to blocking some people -

1. Tap the Cydia icon on your phone. Once Cydia is open type iBlacklist into the search bar. Select it when it comes up on the search list.

2. Follow the instructions to download and pay for iBlacklist. After its done downloading click “Close Window” to close Cydia and return to your homescreen.

3. Scroll through your apps to find the iBlacklist icon and open up the app.

4. In the main menu click “Blacklists”. This will show you the current lists of blacklisted groups and numbers. To add a new number tap ‘Add new Blacklist’.

5. You’ll have to choose between adding a number from your contact list, recent call list, recent message list or if you want to manually add a number. If you do choose to add an existing contact, you’ll be prompted to select the contact from whichever list you selected. However, if you manually enter it you’ll need to name the contact along with putting the number in.

6. After you’ve entered the contact to be blocked look for the red call icon on the configuration role. Set the switch to “On”. They will now be blocked. You can also block SMS messages by swyping the “On” switch next to the red message icon.

7. Now you’ll need to tap “Action to be performed” and choose what you want to happen to the call. You can choose between having the call go straight to voice mail, automatically hung up on, to receive a busy signal or to be blocked without your phone ringing. Click the blue button to add the contact to your blacklist. The changes will be saved.

Now, that individual or group is blocked.

Best Ways To Recycle and Reuse Greeting Cards

2011-11-17T00:57:00.001-08:00

Today, even if conversations are just a click away, the trend of sending greeting cards and postcards on festive occasions, or birthdays have not taken a back seat. Greetings are nice to receive and even send; they have strong memories attached to them and some hold on to them for years together. They contain thoughts that would bring up nostalgic memories when you read them a few years down the line. However, when they start to pile up, they might put you in a confusion whether to throw them or keep them. Well... this Buzzle article will surely sort out your confusion and help you put these old cards to better use. Try some of the craft ideas mentioned below to clear out the heap of greetings collected; at the same time holding on to the sentiments attached to them.
Recycling and Reusing Greeting Cards

Key fob- Cut the front of the card into small designs. Like the one in the picture alongside. Next, punch a hole in one of the corners and tie them to a raffia ribbon. The raffia ribbons curl up giving the whole craft a beautiful look. You can now fix the ribbon in the ring of your keys. Your key fob is ready!

Bookmarks- Cut the front side of a greeting card into a long strip. Use the craft scissors with zig-zag edges to do so. These scissors are available in any stationery store and hardly costs you anything. Once you have cut out the strip, punch a hole in the upper corner of the strip and weave a woolen thread through it. In case you do not have a woolen thread, use a ribbon or a colorful string.

Coasters- For making greeting card coasters, you have to use the part of the card where the contents are usually written. Those cards which have a foil coated on them make for the best coasters. Cut the card in a circle, triangle, rectangle or square, whatever shape you like (just make sure your cup fits in that area). You could laminate these cut pieces to make them durable.

Envelopes- Greeting cards can be used to make envelopes, although these envelopes can be used to store discs only. All you have to do is paste the edges of the cards together and just leave one side open, so as to insert a disc or any small item which the envelope can accommodate.

Framed collage- Words or contents in the greeting cards are full of meaning and have the ability to create nostalgic moments. Cut the one's that mean a lot to you and create a collage of all those messages. You can also paste a picture of the person who wrote it to you and make the collage all the more meaningful.

Refrigerator magnets- Cut out a few images or designs you like from the old greeting cards. Use small pieces of cardboard to cover the back of the images you have cut, so as to thicken the image. With the help of some glue, paste a powerful magnet on the cardboard and let it cling on to the refrigerator door.

Lamp shade- Making a greeting card lamp shape might be a little difficult, but it doesn't hurt to give it a try. You will need four old cards in this case. Cut the front face of each of them and punch holes on the left and right side of the card. For sewing purpose, make sure all the four holes on the cards are aligned properly. Also poke the front face of the card with your pin, which will allow the passage of light highlighting the picture. Sewing all four cards together, it should look like a cube. Once you are done place a candle in a glass holder in the center of the lamp shade. It looks simply amazing, try it!

Gift tags- Trim out a part of scene on your old greeting card. Look for bright colors or some specific pattern that would highlight the occasion it is used for. Check that the other side of the image does not have any contents. Now, punch a hole in the corner of the image and insert a raffia ribbon through the hole and tie the end of the ribbons to create a bow. Use it as a pretty gift tag!

I am sure you might be amazed by the many things you can do with old greeting cards. So, pick any craft idea from above and try it and if you are of a crafty nature, I insist you try all the above ideas. Reuse greetings, it is an eco-friendly option after all!

Is Online Shopping Really Cheap?

2011-11-16T21:22:00.001-08:00

It is just so convenient to switch on your laptop or computer, browse through a couple of online shopping websites and place your order. M-Commerce has become so popular that you can now even make a purchase on your cell phones. You can shop while on the go. It doesn't take more than 15 minutes and you do not even have to step out of the door. You save on fuel expenses for a trip to the mall! Hurray! But, wait. Was shopping online really cheaper than going to the mall? You did save a great deal on the discounts, and the shipping charges are only nominal. And, eBay has made online shopping so smooth and easy. Even kids sell their stuff on eBay to make a quick buck. But, is online shopping good or bad? Let's delve deeper into this subject and find out.

Online Shopping: Saving the Bucks

During the holiday season, the world of Internet is like a paradise for shoppers. There are great deals not just in stores, but even on online shopping websites. Some websites charge you only once for the shipment of all your products bought. What an amazing way to save money. In fact, they may even charge you a fixed amount for it, irrespective of your bill value. Isn't that just so amazing? Ask a girl. Let me correct that. Ask a shopaholic girl and she will tell you all the websites you can save money with by shopping online. It's true. Everyday after work, I check all my favorite online shopping websites as a hobby and entertainment. By the way, it really helps educate you about what are the best deals to grab online. So, let me make online shopping cheaper for you. It's all in the game baby. If you know where to look for and what to buy, you will really save up on a lot of cash. May be you can even pick up the tab on drinks on a night out with friends. Yes, that much cash.

Like for perfumes, they are sold on market retail price at all stores unless you know those that sell you for half the prices. I don't. So, you can buy your perfumes online when they give heavy discounts on occasions such as the 4th of July, Christmas, Mardi Gras and Thanksgiving! You won't get that kind of discount online otherwise. Shoes, I have discovered, can be shopped for really cheap online. You only need a little bit of research and voila! You have the perfect shoe at the perfect price. Don't you pay attention to all those ad banners on Facebook? They are filled with great websites that you can trust to spend your buck. You can also totally compare prices of the same or similar products online and choose your best option before you make that purchase. There are so many money-saver coupons that online shopping websites offer to their members. Make use of them when you need to make a purchase. In fact, I would suggest that you hold back your urge to shop unless you really need to buy something. For clothes, online shopping is the word. If you want to have bargains like those available at thrift stores, just keep searching online. There are so many designer brands that are new or may be used and are being sold at absolutely unbelievable prices.

Tips to Safeguard Against Online Shopping Disasters

Beware of restocking fees. It is mentioned in the terms and conditions, which you often don't bother reading before you hit 'I agree'. Even if the site promises full money back guarantee on return or change in the size on request, they may still charge you a restocking fee as per the contract.
Always print screen and save the copy of your final bill before you close the window. Also, print the receipt.
Don't be lured by the discounts if you don't need to make a purchase. This rule applies even to shopping in a mall. If you give in to your temptations, they exploit your credit card. It can lead to unforeseen expenses that may be difficult to pay later.
Don't make any big purchases online, like buying furniture, expensive electronics, art pieces, gym equipment and others. There can be heavy import duties involved with buying expensive items from overseas. Be absolutely certain about these before you make a purchase.
Pay attention to the amount of shipping charges before you decide to punch in your credit card number. A cheap deal can come with high shipping costs and bluff you. Be absolutely sure about the sizes that you order.

These are some safe online shopping tips to help you prevent the risk of an online shopping fraud. Most of these online shopping websites are actually reputable and don't mind giving you those huge discounts. This is because since all transactions occur online, the retailer also saves up a good sum on overheads. You must know which sites are offering the best deals because most of them can end up charging you a bomb on your credit card. It is also advisable that you choose the cash on delivery (COD) option wherever available. You can protect yourself from any chances of online fraud with your credit card.

Trust only respectable sites to buy online. A great way to save up on online shopping is by purchasing only from websites that have head offices located in your country so you are charged locally on shipping charges, which will be nominal. You can absolutely make online shopping cheaper than shopping in a mall for yourself only if you act like a smart shopper. I know a lot of people who wait before they buy something from a store just to check its prices online. Now, that is one smart shopper.

Best Ways To Tell Your Girlfriend to Lose Weight

2011-11-16T21:12:00.001-08:00

Is your girlfriend putting on weight and you are wondering how to ask her to reduce it without hurting her feelings? The following article will help you with the techniques of telling your girlfriend to lose weight.

Although you have a very close relationship with your girlfriend, you cannot say or tell certain things on her face like asking her to reduce weight. Rather, asking anyone to lose weight is quite delicate because you never know how the person will react; will they take it positively or will they be severely offended. There are some tricks to be learned in achieving success in your task. First of all, decide whether you want your girlfriend to lose weight only for your sake and if the answer is yes, your approach is absolutely wrong. If she has gained like 4 pounds and it bothers you, it is incorrect on your part. But, if she gains 30 to 35 pounds and it is noticeable, you have the right to bring it to her notice and make her aware about the upcoming health issues. But, how to tell her all this and ask her to lose weight? The following tips will definitely give you some satisfying as well as logical ideas to handle this matter.

How to Tell Your Girlfriend to Lose Weight

Before suggesting various tactics to let your girlfriend know about her weight gain, let me tell you something about your approach. You should think of the issue from your heart and make her feel that you are genuinely concerned about her health. Don't ever let artificiality come into your speech.

Firstly, try to make the conversation as casual as possible because no one would like to be lectured on losing weight. Secondly, choose a location and time where you are alone with her and can talk to her without interruptions.
When you understand that she is responding in a positive way, you can turn the conversation on a serious mode. Stress on the fact that she will always be beautiful for you and she must concentrate more on her health than the looks. You can insist on finding out ways to improve her health and one way would be losing extra weight. Do not say that she will be more attractive for you after losing weight because she might get hurt.
Once you know that she is ready to work out to get rid of the extra pounds you can suggest various ways to lose weight like planning the workout schedule for her which will show your concern and involvement in doing good for her and will be an encouragement for her. The best way to motivate your significant other would be an active participation in her workout and other weight loss activities like the diet plan. You can have the same food that your girlfriend orders to assure her that you will also be benefited by the same diet. You can also order for yourself as healthy food as possible like salad which will make her think at least once before she orders the cheesy stuff. Do not fill your plate with the food items that your loved one's diet chart does not allow her. Join a gym together and go for walks which will make her feel your support and encourage her to do more exercise.

Some Other Tips

If you are still afraid to tell your girlfriend to lose weight directly on her face, after going through the above guidelines here are a few more suggestions coming your way. Read them carefully and try to use any of them as per your convenience.

You can buy her clothes of a smaller size. When she will try them out, they won't fit and she will have to reveal it to you. Then you might say, "Oh! But, I thought you were the same size last month". This will make her realize the truth without you offending her and she will feel like doing something about it.
Plan a workout for yourself and pretend to her that you are not satisfied with your own fitness. This is a kind of reverse psychology which will work for sure. You will indirectly ask her to consider her fitness level without even saying it to her and she will take it positively.
Make her join yoga class and tell her it is best for relieving stress. If you tell her directly to join it to lose weight she might get annoyed and refuse it. Yoga has such capabilities that at the superficial level it will look like stress reliever but it will also work for weight loss and your girlfriend won't even realize it. The only thing is you should be careful while choosing the appropriate form of yoga which has more calorie burning exercises.
And last but not the least, appreciate her efforts. This appreciation will encourage her to lose more weight and stay healthy.

If you really care for your loved one's health and genuinely want to help her out in shedding some extra pounds, follow the above guidelines and it will work wonders for your girlfriend to lose weight but, not at the cost of any problems in your relationship.

Top 10 Fattest States In America

2011-11-16T21:09:00.001-08:00

People nowadays have become extremely health conscious. If they gain even a few excess pound, they hit the nearest gym and also keep a strict eye on their diet. The various problems that a fat or an obese person faces, can only be understood by one who is facing the same problem or who had faced such problems earlier. Obesity, specially childhood obesity, has become a major concern, mainly in the developed countries. Obesity can lead to various health issues in future, if not taken care of from a very early age. Heart problems, breathing problems, diabetes at a very young age, high cholesterol level and also high blood pressure, etc. Besides health issues, people face problems in the society as well, when others makes fun of them. There are some states in United States of America, which have been termed as the 'fattest states in America'. Interested in knowing which are the top 10 fattest states? Given below is the fattest states in America, 2010 list which you can refer to.

Top 10 Fattest States in America

Obesity in America, has been and it still is a major concern. Obesity is a medical condition, where a person gains weight drastically, or where accumulation of body fat takes place, which in turn leads to various health related issues (some of which I have talked about already) and also reduces the life expectancy. The Body Mass Index (BMI) of an overweight person is on a scale of 25 kg/m square to 30 kg/m square. If the BMI goes beyond 30 kg/m square, then the person is said to be obese. Here is the list of the fattest states in America, states where most of the people are way above the maximum BMI level.

1 Mississippi: The American state which tops the list of fattest states in the US, is Mississippi. 33% of the people here suffer from the problem of obesity and it's mainly adults who are obese. This state has been selected as the fattest state, 6th time in a row. It's not something to be proud of.
2 and 3 Tennessee and Alabama: The next position, according to the obesity statistics in America, is the state of Tennessee. Here around 32% of the population suffer from obesity. This second position is a tie between Tennessee and Alabama, where people face the similar problems. Some experts have pointed out that the main causes of obesity in America and in these states, are lack of proper education, low income rate, grocery stores located at a great distance, and also the recession. All these factors, force people to depend on cheap, unhealthy food.
4 West Virginia: Around 31.4% of the people in West Virginia suffer from obesity. This is because of too much of fast food and too little exercise.
5 Louisiana: The 5th fattest state in America is Louisiana. The main cause of obesity here, as some people have pointed out, is mainly the sugared soft drinks as well as the free refills that people here have the privilege of. Reduce that, and half your problem will be solved.
6 Oklahoma: Although, right now it occupies the position of the sixth fattest state in America, Oklahoma, is very fast approaching the top level. Adult obesity has become a major problem here. Steps have been taken to get this under control, with proper diet in schools and regular check ups for obesity in schools.
7 Kentucky: Lack of proper physical activities due to improvement in electronic gadgets., easy availability of cheap fried fast food, are some of the major causes for this state of Kentucky to be the 7th fattest state in America.
8 Arkansas: Results shows that every one in three people from Arkansas, are suffering from the problem of obesity. It's the children who suffer from more than the adults.
9 South Carolina: The 9th state in the list of top fattest states in America, is South Carolina with 28% of the people suffering from obesity.
10 Michigan and North Carolina: The 10th position of fattest states in America, is tied between North Carolina and the state of Michigan with nearly 27% of the people facing problems of obesity. If proper actions are not taken, then very soon, these states might climb higher up in the fattest states ladder.

This was the list of the top 10 fattest states in America. You can also learn more about the fattest cities in America. This is not something that one should be proud of. If people do not take action soon, then the adults as well as the children will face problem in the future. Health will be affected and so will the life expectancy rate. So proper physical exercise as well as proper healthy diet is important.

Places Where Anacondas Live

2011-11-16T21:06:00.001-08:00

Anacondas are the largest snakes in the world. Based on this fact, it is quite obvious one would like to know where do anacondas live? Let us have a look at a few anaconda facts and learn more about their habitat from the following article.

Anacondas, the name reminds of a famous Hollywood flick, that featured this large snake. One of the most fearsome creatures of the world, anacondas are members of the Boa family. These are carnivorous predators and one of the longest snakes inhabiting the earth. This makes one where does the largest snake on earth live? We shall answer the question where do anacondas live in the following paragraphs and learn a few more interesting anaconda facts as well.

Where do Anacondas Live

I remember receiving a mail with pictures showing a large snake that had swallowed a really large pig. This snake was none other than our very own anaconda. Such a large snake that is capable of gulping down an animal twice its body width! This sure was a scene to remember. This is when I wondered where do anacondas live? The anacondas are inhabitants of the South American tropical rainforest. They live in areas mostly towards the east of Andes and all through the Amazon and Orinoco river basins. They are also found in the rainforest of Colombia, Venezuela, Northern Bolivia and South Central Brazil. They love the Amazonian basin where the temperatures match their body temperature, tropical and cold.

Where do Anacondas Live in the Rainforest

Now that we know where do anacondas live, we move over to the next question. This question is where do anacondas live in the rainforest. The anaconda habitat is mostly aquatic. These semi-aquatic snakes prefer living in water as water can help support their humongous body weight. The anaconda habitat consists of shallow caves or the branches of trees near the river bank or near the river bank. These snakes prefer swampy areas with calm waters than rivers with swift moving water. These snakes are quite slow and sluggish on land. When in water, they move with surprising agility and swiftness. They swim in water submerging their bodies with only their nostrils above the water surface.

Anaconda Facts

Let us now have a look at a few facts on anacondas that will help us know more about these beautiful reptiles. Anacondas are brownish green in color. They have scaly skin that looks moist, but when you touch it, you will find it rather dry. They have tiny teeth that helps then grab their prey. Although, one can be bitten by an anaconda, it is rarely fatal. This is because anacondas are non-venomous snakes and do not have fangs. They use their nostrils to breathe and tongue to smell. They tend to emit a musk, that is very foul-smelling and poisonous to small animals. This musk helps protect these snakes from attack of ticks and leeches when they are basking on land.

Anacondas are really large snakes in length as well as weight. They are known to reach a height of about 29 feet and have a body diameter of 12 inches. They are solitary creatures and very shy. This is a stark contrast to the type of ferocious image created by the media. They are mostly nocturnal and come out to hunt at night. They are carnivorous and eat only meat. They can swallow pigs, deer, caymans, rodents, frogs, fish, etc. There are many rumors and a few reported cases of humans begin swallowed by these large reptiles.

Anacondas do not kill their prey with venom, but they squeeze their prey to death. They coil their huge bodies around the victim and continue to squeeze. They squeeze till every bone in the victim's body is broken and the victim is suffocated. When they are hiding under water, they pull their prey into the water and drown them to death. Then swallow the prey whole as their jaws are made of stretchable ligaments. Once they have a meal, they will not hunt again for several weeks. The process of digestion takes several weeks depending on the size of their prey. The snake has to digest the food as soon as possible or else the prey will rot in their gut. They have the ability to regurgitate or vomit out their prey from their gut, if they cannot digest it.

The most well-known species of anacondas are the green anacondas and the yellow anacondas. The green anacondas are calledEunectes murinus. They have a dark green skin color with black oval patches. This helps give it a perfect camouflage in wet vegetation. The yellow anaconda is known as Eunectes notaeus. It is yellow in color and has black spots on its body. It is smaller in size than the green anaconda.

This is all about where do anacondas live in the rainforest and a few interesting anaconda facts. The anaconda habitat is the tropical rainforest of South America. Anacondas, largest snake in the world, are vulnerable to one selfish predator, humans. Their habitats are destroyed by humans and they are killed for their skin. Some humans just kill an anaconda out of fear of snakes. One has to save the environment and prevent killing of these beautiful snakes. Anacondas are endangered species that need to be protected. They do not kill until they are threatened by man. This is all about these shy creatures who are misinterpreted as a deadly killers.

Britain also received Ile Royal or the Cape Breton Island from France and she also agreed to stop its fortifications in the British Honduras (Belize) but kept its log wood cutting company there. The King of Great Britain was to be recognized by France as the Prince elector of the Holy Roman Empire.

Spain
Spain was another major power that was involved in this treaty. After the signing of the treaty, Spain had to give up Florida and Minorca to Britain and received New Orleans, Louisiana from France and Cuba and Philippines from Britain.

The major Treaty of Paris 1763 significance was that it marked the start or rather the beginning of the British rule outside Europe. It played a major role in world history. The treaty was supposed to bring the Americans closer to the British, but just the opposite happened. The Britishers looked down upon the Americans and as for the Americans, they were not the ones to sit back and take orders from others, hence the thirteen colonies united and revolted against the British.

Best Ways To Hatch Turkey Eggs

2011-11-16T20:58:00.001-08:00

There are different steps involved in rearing turkeys, from the right feed and water to maintaining a good breeding stock. One such step is the birth of new poults (turkey chicks) through hatching. Scroll below to learn how the eggs should be cared for to ensure a healthy brood of chicks.

As a turkey breeder, whether novice or professional, incubating and hatching the eggs of a turkey is a delicate but interesting process. The eggs are laid between April and June. Depending on the size of the hen, the number of eggs per clutch can vary. Heavy breeds lay as few as 50 eggs, while lighter turkey breeds can lay as many as 100 eggs. Turkey eggs can either be hatched naturally by the turkey hen incubating them, or artificially, using an electronic incubator. Natural incubation is normally avoided, especially if the turkeys are bred for consumption, as the turkey hen can be a slightly careless mother. Below, the process of how to hatch turkey eggs using an incubator is detailed.

How to Hatch Turkey Eggs in an Incubator

The hatching process is divided into the following main parts.

Selecting and preparing the eggs:

Prior to handling the eggs at any time, always wash your hands well.
Do not touch other objects, including your face, then touch the eggs. As the dirt from your hands can contaminate the eggs through their thin surface.
Choose eggs that have clear, smooth surfaces, free of any cracks or damage.
Wash eggs with a sanitizer, especially if there is visible dirt on them.
A week before incubating the eggs, you should place them in egg cartons and store them in a cool dark location.
Eggs should be incubated as soon as possible. Ideally they should be stored for just a week before incubating. As the eggs get older, their rate of hatchability decreases.
Before placing the eggs in the incubator, let them reach room temperature.
The eggs need to be rotated in the incubator, so that they are uniformly warmed. You can mark the flat sides of the eggs with different letters using a pencil, so you can differentiate between sides.

Preparing the incubator:

Try to get an incubator with a temperature regulator, or you will need to use a digital thermometer, so you can easily measure the temperature present within the device.
The amount of moisture or humidity in the incubator is also important. Fill the water channels as mentioned in the manual, to maintain the correct level of humidity.
Read the manual well, so you understand how to set its temperature properly. Make sure it is clean and disinfected before use.
If possible, try to test your incubator and its working process beforehand with a trial run by incubating chicken eggs.
Place the machine in a location that will be undisturbed at all times and remains at a consistent temperature. An ideal temperature setting is between 70°F and 75°F.
Make sure the incubator is placed far away from air vents, doors, or windows, as such locations can let in cold air or sunlight, that can affect its temperature.
Set up the incubator well in advance to placing the eggs. It should be prepared for use 24 hours before placing the eggs.

Incubation:

Turkey eggs require 28 days to hatch, so keep track of the days of incubation accordingly. The first 24 days are key formative days for the eggs.
The optimal temperature of the incubator is between 98°F and 102°F. Make sure it has reached such a temperature range and remains constant. The machine's temperature should not go above or below the optimal temperature range.
Keep checking the incubator's humidity levels. It must not get too dry or too wet. A humidity level of 55% should be maintained throughout the incubation period. To precisely measure humidity levels, you can use a hygrometer.
The incubating eggs need to be turned to ensure they receive uniform warmth. Movement also stimulates the hatching process. But the eggs should not be disturbed repeatedly. They should be rotated at least 3 times a day.
Some incubators will turn the eggs automatically as needed. Other models will need you to manually turn the eggs. Place the eggs in the machine, all having the same mark or symbol side up.
The eggs should be turned by 180 degrees, such that the side with the other symbol is completely visible. Turn all eggs in the incubator at the same time.
Stop turning the eggs on the 25th day of incubation. If your incubator has an automatic egg turning ability, lay the eggs out on the wire floor of the machine. Otherwise turn the eggs, such that their larger end is slightly elevated. The eggs should remain undisturbed for the last 3 days of incubation.
During the last 3 days of incubation, the humidity levels should be increased to 75%. Depending on the humidity levels at your area of residence, you may need to increase or decrease the humidity levels within your incubator.

Hatching:

The eggs are most likely to start hatching on the 28th day of incubation. It can take between 5-10 hours for a chick to hatch out of the egg.
Cracks may appear in the egg's shell. Make sure the cracked side of the egg is facing upwards, so the chick can emerge properly. You may even hear peeping noises.
Do not interfere in the hatching process. Let the chick hatch on its own. Hatching is the first test of survival. A chick capable of hatching on its own, is a healthy and strong chick. Chicks too weak to hatch, will remain weak and will soon die.
A newly hatched chick should be left alone for 5-6 hours in the incubator, until it dries from the hatching process. Then show it some food and water. Keep it warm and wash your hands before handling it.

Hatching Turkey Eggs Naturally

A turkey hen preparing to lay eggs and nest, can get very territorial and broody. Once she has established her nesting place, she will not budge from it and will get very aggressive if you try to. She can injure you painfully with pecks and jabs and if you touch her eggs, she may decide to abandon them. So leave her to nest, with sufficient food and water and let nature take its course. After the eggs have hatched, move the mother and her brood of chicks to a secure pen. The pen should protect the newly born chicks from predators as well as be covered and warm enough to protect them from the weather.

Once the chicks are born, it is time to follow the right rearing and breeding practices to grow healthy and hearty turkeys. It may seem difficult at first, but the incubating and hatching process with any fowl's eggs, needs patience, research, and attention to detail to succeed.

Best Ways to Build Trust in a Marriage

2011-11-14T07:12:00.001-08:00

Brian and Jenna had the perfect marriage; or so it would seem to their families and neighbors. What everyone didn't know was that Brian had become increasingly possessive and intrusive in Jenna's life. Whenever she was in the shower or in the kitchen, he'd rush to check her cell phone messages and who she called. When Jenna left for work, he would call her office to see how long it took her to reach there. Of course Brian was no James Bond and she did eventually found out about his actions. But what Jenna was worried and confused on was why would Brian even do such a thing? He had always been a caring, trusting boyfriend and now a husband for 3 years. After all this time, did he not know Jenna inside out? To this, Brian would only say, "It's been 5 years since we know one another and I am worried if you might lose interest in me. And I don't want that." Jenna would plead in front of him to stop all of this and trust her completely. Even though Brian would say OK, deep down he was still the same. Jenna would ponder for hours together as how to build trust in a marriage and bring her old, sweet, loving Brian back...

Anyone who is in a happy, content marriage will tell you that a happy marriage recipe is keeping faith and trust in one another. Of course there are other factors as well, but if a husband and wife don't trust each other, then the marriage is definitely headed towards doom. How a person manages a relationship depends entirely on him/her. Lost trust can make the love between husband and wife sour, and it quickly turns into a frustrated marriage for both. For Brian and Jenna, the distrust came from Brian's false assumptions, but there are couples who have genuine issues that bring on this feeling. Infidelity, betrayal, lying, extramarital affair, all can lead to the husband or wife not communicating and trusting each other.

It's a sad occurrence when a couple loses the one important element in their marriage. Believe it or not, but gaining someone's trust is really tough. Whether this feeling was intentional or unintentional, it brings a cloud of sadness for any couple. In our article, we are going to see how a couple can work together in rebuilding trust in a relationship and keep it so forever.

How to Regain Trust in a Marriage

How to build trust in a marriage? Doesn't it sound like a tough thing to do? It may not be so much if you know the person you are married to. The difficulty or issue here is that the thought process is a bit cloudy and it has to be cleared to make a better decision.

Communication
Communication is very important between a couple to get things rolling and finding the root cause of distrust. Communicating with your spouse, having an open dialog where both explain their innermost feelings, why the issue of trust is there, how did it come to be so, and finding a solution to keep both the partners happy is essential. Lack of communication in marriage can create hundreds of misunderstandings between a husband and wife which is tough to bridge.

Dependable
In a marriage, being able to rely and depend on one another is crucial. Taking any big or small decisions, work or home related issues, children, everything, it has to be done keeping your relationship in mind. Any decision a husband or a wife makes affects both. So when couples ask about rebuilding trust in a marriage, being reliable is a key step. It brings a sense of security for both and keeps the negative feelings at bay. Many marital problems such as distrust comes from not being able to depend on one another completely.

Honesty
We all know that keeping secrets and being dishonest, even if it about something as small as hiding a pack of cigarettes, can create differences. Dishonesty is a common marital problem that doesn't erase itself with time. Admitting to your mistakes or errors, sincerely apologizing, and making a genuine effort to not repeat it again will take you one step closer to being closer than ever and reconnect with your spouse.

There's one thing you need to realize when you wish to find answers to how to build trust in a marriage - no trust means anunhappy marriage for the both of you. But being mature enough to understand and admit that there is a problem in your marriage and it needs to be fixed, takes a huge heart. There are some trust building activities that you can try to bring yourself closer, understand each other's needs, and make your relationship stronger than ever.

Best Questions to Ask Before Ending a Relationship

2011-11-14T06:56:00.001-08:00

If you think break ups are the only solution for a relationship that's gone sour, you might be mistaken. Here's a look at some questions to ask before ending a relationship; these questions would help you to gauge the situation and arrive to the right conclusion.
When cupid strikes and you only see and feel love around you, let's face it people, you are truly, madly, deeply in love! All of us know that typical heady feeling you experience when in love. While some couples live happily ever after, there are few that do not really end up together as planned! Break ups are the most difficult things to deal with about a relationship especially when falling in love is always so easy... forgetting someone seems to take an eternity!

While in a relationship, there are many times when a couple may consider that drastic step. For some, there really is no way out, but then, have you given a thought for a better way out? There are some things you need to ponder before you call it the quits unless your partner has really been abusive and uncouth in the mannerisms towards you. There are various reasons, which may cause you to break up with your partner, but before you arrive to a conclusion, I would like to suggest a few questions to ask yourself before ending a relationship. This will help you to analyze the situation and take a rational decision without really trying the extremes. Let's face it people, this is the same person you loved and yearned to spend every single minute of the day. This is also the same person whose voice cheered you up on a dull day. This is still the same person you wanted to spend the rest of your life with! So before ending a relationship, here are some questions you need to ask yourself. These questions should hopefully help you to arrive to the right decision and ultimately find true happiness.

Questions to Ask Before Ending a Relationship

Have you drifted apart in due course of time?
Trust me; with the kind of hectic schedule you both would be having, sometimes couple just tend to drift apart. In that case, you would need to give it a serious thought. Are you feeling the need to end the relationship only because he/she does not have time for you? Spending quality time with each other is extremely important for a relationship. You need to develop a bond and if he/she is busy all the time, then it's obvious you both are going to feel the strain and one of you would really get bored of endlessly waiting for him/her. If you have been stood up for all the dates or if you always wait for his/her phone calls (after endless promises of calling back in 5 minutes); then you need to give it a serious thought and talk it out with your partner. If your partner gives you the same old talk then I think you would be wise enough to move on. But if there is some genuine reason for his long disappearances, then you need to have a talk and try to solve the issue rather than opting for a break up.

Do you really wish things should work out for the better?
No matter how much you hate him/her, the bottom line remains you also are in love with the same person and break ups can be tough really! If you still have a feeling of longing to be with him/her, then try to know if there can be a solution rather than walking out on your partner. This will at least give you the satisfaction you have tried. And if you are lucky enough, you both might just rediscover the joys of a new relationship with each other altogether!

Has he/she broken your trust?
Amongst the numerous reasons for ending a relationship, infidelity is one of the most common ones. Let's face it, people live in this fast paced life and many do not have the inclination for a long-term relationship. With flings and one-night stands on the rise, cheating out on your partner is definitely not a done thing. Are you really in love with your partner and can you forgive him/her and begin the relationship all over again? Would you trust him/her completely again? Or does your partner have the habit of lying all the time? Trust is the basic foundation of any relationship; therefore, know the truth before you end the relationship. This question should be asked before ending a relationship because it would help you to tackle the situation more effectively. Believing gossipmongers simply worsens the situation. If your partner has broken the trust you placed in him/her, it would only be better you tackle him/her directly and solve the problem. If you think he/she is covering up his/her tracks, then only you would be able to know if the entire relationship is worth all the effort.

Is it because of lack of communication?
Communication and spending time with each other is extremely important for any relationship if you wish for its growth. The lack of communication will obviously lead to misunderstandings. Effective communication is required to know and understand each other's requirements in a relationship. Do you think you can develop a healthy relationship with your partner if you both mend your ways? Or have you reached a stage when you are too tired to even try? How important is he/she to you? If you think it's worth the effort, then go ahead and talk it out.

Is it because of family issues?
Sometimes, families can also affect any relationship that's probably going the right way. No two individual are the same and if your family does not approve your beloved, then you need to know few things.

Would you be able to leave your family only for the sake of your partner?
Would you be able to talk it out altogether and arrive at a mid point?
Would you prefer to stick to your family?

There are many times when family pressures may force you to end the relationship. In that case, before you end the relationship, you must know if you would be able to handle his/her absence in your life. If your partner is worth it, then there is no harm in trying to talk it out and resolve issues rather than losing your beloved. These are probably just the initial hurdles, so you must know the depths of the relationship before you decide to end it altogether.

Have you lost that spark in the relationship?
Many times, hectic work schedule and responsibilities steal all the zing from any relationship. In that case, you would need to know whether you could restore it back. This can happen to anybody and breaking up is not the only solution. Communicate. Do something special for him/her. A tiny gesture is enough to get the warmth back into the relationship. Plan a surprise dinner. Send a special love message through flowers. These little things go a long way to adding the romance to a relationship.

Are you'll having different goals?
As time passes, sometimes, a couple's priorities may also undergo a change in life. In that case, you might want to end the relationship simply because you don't share common goals. In that case, can you work your way around it? Is there some common point you both can come to? Have you taken interest in your partner's work profile or hobbies? Does he/she make the same effort? The answers to these questions would surely help you to arrive to a right conclusion. You can also refer to: Ways to end relationships.

These questions to ask before ending a relationship would help you to assess the situation rather than flying off the handle and running away from it. Here's hoping you find true love and stay happy forever and ever!

Why Do All Men Lie to Their Girlfriends

2011-11-14T06:54:00.001-08:00

For any relationship to go the right way, the foundation should always be based on trust. Trust is something that is built up with time. Being honest to each other is of utmost importance in any relationship. Although this is something every individual is aware about, I have noticed couples lie blatantly to each other! I have often wondered why do men lie to their girlfriends? Women have also been giving stiff competition to men off late! The problem with men remains to be…well, we can’t live with them nor live without them. Lies only creates more chaos in an already disturbed relationship although a little bit of white lies can at times, save a relationship. So, are men natural liars or is it a habit? My viewpoints are based on what I have seen and observed and the different kind of liars I have met so far!

Why do Men Lie to their Girlfriends?
There may be various reasons why a guy would choose to lie to his girlfriend. This brings up one really sweet incident to my mind. One of my good friends, Amanda, never did know how to cook and when she met this really amazing guy and started going steady with him, she decided to whip up a good meal for him. The other day I happened to bump into her boyfriend so I casually asked him about the evening spent at her place! He told me he was really deep into the relationship though he admitted she sure was a bad cook! I was appalled thinking he may have blurted the truth to Amanda but he reassured me saying he lied and had told her she is an excellent cook! Well, I guess this man really lied for a reason and it was only because he loved her to a great extent. It left me with a nice feeling all over.

The other day I came across another situation concerning a couple from my group! The girl had worn something that looked like it was dug up from the attic and when she cooed gently to her boyfriend, saying, ‘How do I look honey?’, I was appalled when her boyfriend said, ‘As beautiful as ever!’ I smiled as I thought if beauty truly lies in the eyes of the beholder or was that guy really lying to keep his girl happy! There are of course many reasons why a man would lie in this instance; it may simply be to keep out of trouble and being nagged by the girlfriend!

So, I came back to the golden question, why do men lie to their girlfriends? Apart from white lies, men also lie probably if they end up being habitual liars. For such men, telling a lie is no big deal; they lie for fun and as a form of entertainment. For them, telling a lie is merely a habit without any malicious intentions! Well, in that case, it would be difficult to spot a habitual liar although time would reveal the truth! For instance, I knew this person who often pretended to be busy! None of his dates planned at exclusive restaurants ever worked out, there were only false promises saying, ‘I’m busy’ or the usual, ‘I have a very important conference to attend’. In this case the reason could have been genuine, but there are times I felt lies was being told as a cover up for lack of interest. Whatever, the reason, one can never cover up lies for long! Truth always finds a way out and comes to the surface when a person least expects it to!

Men as well as women lie for various reasons (known to them!) But if you wish to be in a long-lasting relationship, then you need to be truly honest to yourself first and then with your partner! With love and trust as the base, you can then have a healthy relationship you can certainly cherish forever.

All you need to do to take advantage of this glitch is to purchase four fences or hedges from the market and lock the Farmville farmer. You can do this by placing the four fences or hedges in a square and locking in the farmer inside the square. Once you have locked in the farmer, see how fast you are able to plow and harvest your crops and trees. This in turn will allow you to gain more Farmville coins as well as experience.

One big problem that many of us face is that we have a lot of Farmville coins but not enough XP which will lead to attaining higher levels. To solve this problem, there are some very good Farmville tricks and cheats that will make you gain more XP. First make space in your farm and start plowing 10 to 20 squares of land which will cost you 15 coins per square. Now take an inexpensive crop like soybean that cost only 15 Farmville coins and start planting them. When you are done planting soybeans, immediately click on the shovel tool and delete these squares of land on which soybeans have been planted. You will gain experience by plowing the land as well as planting soybeans. Now repeat the whole procedure two or three more times until you have gained a lot of XPs. In this way you will lose some Farmville coins but gain a lot of XP that is needed to increase your level in the game. This is one of the best Farmville cheats that work.

Another good Farmville secrets guide is to send and receive multiple gifts. To do this ask a family member or friend who plays Farmville and is your neighbor to log on to his Facebook account in Firefox. Log in to the Farmville application and go to the page that says "Free Gifts". Now instead of selecting and sending gifts right away, right click the Free Gifts button and select "Open in new window". Open up several windows in this way. Now select a different gift that you need in each of the windows and select your name from the list of Farmville friends. Click on the confirm button and send button one after the other in each of the windows and each window that you had opened will send you the free gift selected. This Farmville hacks is called the unlimited gifts cheat. Friends and family can thus send you many gifts in this way. Once you have accumulated the gifts, sell any decorative items like fences, lamppost, hedges, ponds and trellis as they just take up too much space. Keep any high income giving trees like avocado, banana, grapefruit, olive and starfruit as once you plant them they give you 50 to 120 coins at regular interval. Sell any other ornamental trees like cherry as they only take up a lot of space.

Another one of Farmville tricks and cheats that you can use is to buy a lot of hay bales. Hay bales cost just 125 farm coins but give you 5 XP. So go crazy and purchase a lot of hay bales to get more XPs by spending less money. Yesterday I tried implementing this Farmville trick by filling up my entire farm with hundreds of hay bales stacked together. I quickly earned a lot of XP which helped me to increase my level in the game. You can later use the hay bales to create Farmville layouts and Farmville farm designs and sell any that you don't need.

These were some Farmville tricks and cheats that you can use to increase your level quickly in the game. Playing Farmville is quite addictive and you will soon be able to come up with smarter game cheats and strategies to increase farm coins and experience and make your farm the best one.

Farmville, a game launched by Zynga, on the most widely used social networking site, Facebook has become one of the most popular games among internet users of all age groups. Farming ideally implies a lot of hard work and patience. But what's the harm in adding a dash of smartness to it? Here are some Farmville cheat codes to help you grow faster in terms of experience as well as Farmville coins. You can use these game cheats and watch the faces of your competitors go green with envy! One can also think about using the Farmville cheat engine to reduce the level of difficulty.

Farmville Cheats to Gain Experience

For most players, advancing to a higher level is the major concern as against earning money. There are two important Farmville tricks to gain experience at the expense of a few coins.

Soybean Trick
Keep a small part of land free, so that you can use this trick repetitively whenever you are free. Approximately ten plots of your farm will suffice for this trick. Now, start with plowing these plots, then visit the market and buy soybean seeds. Sow these seeds on the plowed plots. After this is done, use the recycle tool to delete these plots. You might wonder, what is the point of taking all the efforts if you just have to delete the plots in the end? But you will notice, being one of the sneakiest Farmville cheat codes, that your experience points rise with this simple task!

Haybale Trick
The other trick is the haybale trick, which is relatively simpler but not as effective. In this trick, you simply have to buy a haybale and sell it off. At the end of this transaction, you lose a net amount of 95 Farmville coins, but gain 5 experience points. Getting into the math of both these tricks, plowing and planting soybean on 10 plots will cost you 300 coins and give you 30 points of experience. So, each point costs 10 coins. Whereas, in the haybale trick, each point costs 19 coins. Simplicity or efficiency? The choice is yours.

Farmville Cheats for Money and Other Gains

Unlimited Gifts
One of the easy Farmville cheat codes is best used with your Farmville buddies. On the other hand, if you have only competitors as against friends, then you can opt for a fake account. However, doing this with a friend makes the benefit mutual. Officially, you cannot send more than one gift to any person in a day. Once you send a gift, the name of that friend is removed from the list of people you can send gifts to, for that day. There is a way to get around this. Right click on the free-gifts icon, and open the link in either a new window or a new tab. Select any gift in each tab and proceed to the next stage. Then select your friends. You will observe that the same list appears on each tab. Then press 'confirm'. For this trick to work, it is necessary that all the tabs progress simultaneously. So be patient and switch tabs for every stage. You can also try out some Farmville cash cheats to gain some easy cash.

Lock Yourself
One of the easy Farmville cheats and tips is to be yourself, I mean be in your farmer avatar. The cute little fellow can be quite a hindrance to your speed while farming. All you need is two fences and some free space in the corner of your field. You need to make a small enclosed space to lock the farmer while you work. Arrange the two fences perpendicular to each other to form two sides of your enclosure and let the two sides of the farm, which meet at the corner, act as the remaining two sides. Whenever you have to work, move the farmer into this enclosure and then proceed to work. This will save you a lot of precious time, as a free farmer would otherwise walk his way slowly to a plot and work at his slow pace, no matter how fast you click your mouse. This Farmville tip should help in working with speed.

Use Animal Homes
One of the simplest Farmville cheat codes is to that when you have chicken coops, dairy farms and horse stables, they can prove to be very useful. They take up less space than what the number of animals they hold would take, if arranged outside. Also, collecting goodies from animals becomes ten times faster. It would be wise to sell the other animals because no animals help you earn experience points and they simply take up space. This space, if utilized for sowing seeds, would reap higher benefits. This is one of the easy Farmville cheats that work. But if you happen to be an animal lover, you can still keep them arranged on one side of a farm. Making a cozy fenced shelter for them can make your farm 'look' better, but then you're losing out on some serious space.

Sell Gifts
This is one of the smart Farmville cheats that works. Gifts come free of cost, and it is best to sell them and earn profit. If you receive trees as gifts, you can keep them till they bear fruits and then, you can sell them off. This is because trees take up space and take a very long time to bear fruit and even then, the fruits don't earn you any appreciable amount of coins.

Choose Your Crops Smartly
If you are at your desk all day long, it is best to plant blueberries, which are ready for harvesting every 4 hours. It is also smart to plant a variety of crops and not the same ones repeatedly on your field. But if you visit Facebook, only after certain fixed time intervals, you can plant the same crop all over, so that you don't have to login again and again for each crop separately. Also, for players who visit daily, the best crops I would suggest are peas, sunflowers and grapes. They earn you appreciable coins as well as 'xp' (experience) points.

Stacking fences is a way of adding aesthetic value to your farm. In reality, it is just an illusion of a stack. The fences are actually all placed on the ground, but arranged behind each other in a specific angle that gives them the appearance of a stack. Using these Farmville farm designs and other tricks helps in making the game easier and interesting.

Finally, a word of caution. There are a lot of Farmville cheat codes and software such as the Autobot, which runs on your computer and automizes farming. Using such Farmville cheats that work, is a risk, because Zynga can track such bots and can permanently ban your account. Not just that, it can track your IP address and ban all accounts connected to this IP address. It is safe to use just smart Farmville cheats that work well and to not cause any issue with the providers of such an interesting game. After all, it's the excitement associated with farming that makes this game tick. So, enjoy the game and keep farming buddies!

Effective Website Promotion Ideas and Techniques

2011-11-13T04:51:00.001-08:00

Here are some effective website promotion ideas, tips and techniques to drive more and better traffic to your website. Read ahead to find out what these website promotion techniques are.

Do you have any idea as to how many websites exist on the world wide web? Take a guess, even if it is a wild one. A hundred thousand? Five hundred thousand? One million? Ten million? One billion? Okay, here's the answer. The total number of websites that exist on the Internet is a little over a whopping 5 billion. Can you believe that? Well, you have to! You don't have a choice!

Now consider this scenario. Consider yourself as being a newbie entrepreneur who has just launched an exciting startup venture in a popular commercial field (for example, nutrition and healthcare). Now, considering the mass global appeal that the Internet has, you decide to launch your own website in an effort to give your business a digital identity, and one which is visible to the entire world at the click of a mouse. But have you considered the odds of your brand new website competing with the other 5 billion established websites in terms of reaching across to the global Internet audience? Where would your website stand in terms of Internet supremacy? Needless to say, you will have to heavily promote your website if you want to see it stand out and succeed, rather than get lost in the massive crowd. So how do go about it? Well, for starters, here are some useful website promotion ideas and tips to begin with.

Effective Website Promotion Ideas and Techniques
Here are some effective website promotion techniques and ideas for you to keep in mind.

Optimized Content
Make sure that all of your website content is original, and more importantly, that it is optimized from the perspective of search engine optimization (SEO). By original content, I mean content that is not plagiarized, i.e. copied, stolen, borrowed, duplicated or summarized from any other similar existing piece of work. Make proper use of title tags, meta tags, keywords, etc. Read more on what makes a good website.

SEO Consultation
If you are not knowledgeable enough about SEO practices and optimization techniques, then the best thing to do in the circumstances, is to seek the services of a specialist SEO services consultancy or firm. Those guys are always well-informed about the latest updates regarding search engine algorithms, latest trends, best practices, etc. Rest assured, with them, your website will be in safe hands. Here are a few SEO tips for your benefit. You can also read more on the role of professional SEO consultant services.

Link Building
Link building plays a very important role in your website moving up the ranks in Internet search engine results. Get backlinks to your website from different popular sites, reputed sites, social networking sites, and if possible, government sites. Also,website submission to several web directories is also a good idea if you want to increase web traffic.

In addition to the above-mentioned ideas, here are a few more website promotion tips for you to implement:

Try and implement the concept of link exchange or reciprocal links. It can help in bettering your page rank and can drive newer audiences and wider traffic to your website. However, make sure that you do indulge in link exchange only with reputed and ethical websites, or else this move may backfire.
Use graphics and animation effects if you can. Today, if a picture is worth a thousand words, then an animation is probably worth a few multiples. However, be smart and tactful when dealing with the graphical aspect of your website. Do not overload your website with glittery graphics, banners and unnecessary animation effects. It will not only look disturbing to the viewer, but will also result in a larger page size (meaning the webpage will take that much longer to fully load).
Create a blog on the same topic as your website and link it to your website. A blog opens up the possibility of reaching across to a diverse network of Internet users. Post reviews, articles and regular updates pertaining to your website, your product, or your service.
Start with Pay Per Click (PPC) advertising programs or campaigns such as Google AdWords for advertising and marketing your website across a large medium (in this case, the Google search engine). It is a hugely popular and equally successful method of promoting your website, and of driving quality web traffic towards it.
Do not forget other offline methods of website promotion. Use every available opportunity to publish and promote your website URL. Print it on your company brochure, product leaflet, business card, letter head, etc. Also, include it in your emails below your email signature, etc.
Come up with interesting ways to draw visitors to your website and keep them hooked. Include contests, visitor polls, questionnaires, etc. Award freebies, product samples, etc. to those visitors who participate sincerely and with a genuine interest in all of your polls, surveys and questionnaires.

Well, these were a few useful website promotion ideas for you to consider and implement. You can read more on website marketing techniques and how to advertise a website. All the best!

Best Tips for Using Facebook Safely

2011-11-13T04:49:00.001-08:00

The following safety tips for Facebook would be helpful for people who are new members of the most popular social networking site, and also for the people who have been members for quite sometime now. Learn to be safe on Facebook...

The Internet is an exciting way of being globally connected to the world. You can do various things on the Internet at just a click of a button. Other than electronic shopping, one of the most popular reasons why people need the Internet is because of social networking sites. They are a new trend in the market, and almost everyone who owns or has access to a computer and the Internet, is a member of a social networking site. It's the best way to stay connected with friends and distant peers without taking the pains of calling or meeting them everyday. When you talk about social networking sites, one name comes to mind and that is Facebook. Sure, there are many more social networking websites in the market, but Facebook is the most popular, and today we are going to discuss some safety tips for using Facebook.

Tips for Using Facebook Safely

It's the most popular social networking site in the world. Period. More than 250 million people log in daily on Facebook, and the site boasts a membership of over 600 million. Though the site is the best platform for people to meet, interact, share photos and experiences, it's also a good platform for anti-social elements who hack other people's account and try to cause harm. Facebook users often share personal information through chatting and post information on each others walls, which can create a lot of problems if seen by a mischief maker. This makes it very essential that you know some safety tips for using Facebook, and also be aware of Facebook dangers.

Sharing Information with Caution
Most of us share pictures and information on our profile, but it's very important to make sure that no outsider can view what you upload on your profile. Facebook's default setting allows people who are not your friends to view your information. Make sure you only allow your friends to see all the pictures and videos you post. All your other settings should also be set as 'Friends Only'.

Do Not Accept Every Friend Request
The main purpose of Facebook is to make sure that you, as a member, stay connected with all your friends and peers. However, accepting every friend request you get is foolishness. There have been many cases where sex offenders, potential kidnappers, and even private investigators have created fake accounts to gain access through your information. As soon as you accept their friend request they start tampering with your account. Keep your Friends List as close knitted as possible.

Less Personal Information
Make sure you don't fill up your personal information on the Facebook page. Updating your birthday is also a matter of concern, the more information you add about yourself the more easy it is going to get for someone to use your account for wrong purposes. Don't fill in your phone numbers, addresses or even birthdays.

Do not Leave Your Facebook Account On
Leaving your Facebook account open on a public computer is like leaving your cell phone in a public place. Anyone can sit and start updating posts to your wall, customize site settings, and even type something which may later lead to conflicts. Always sign out of your account.

Avoid Posting Children's Photos
The world is filled with child molesters and kidnappers, therefore I would suggest not to post your child's pictures on Facebook. Make sure your kids don't get entangled in this Facebook madness. Their photos can also be used for commercial purposes.

Think Before Posting
Before posting anything on the wall, think twice. Do not go on posting your late night extravaganzas and which hot chick you hooked up with last night. Almost everything you post on a Facebook wall can be seen by all the members of your "Friends List". If you really need to share your details with your friends and colleagues do it on email. Don't be a laughing joke on the Internet.

Hope this article on safety tips for using Facebook was helpful to you. By following such simple tips you will help Facebook be a much better and safer place for its various users.
