Nasty Worms

I think that one my dog has worms. I’ve been noticing that she has been acting a bit odd while doing her business outside. So today I took a closer look and Bingo I see some nasty stuff going on in there. Looks like a trip to the vet is needed. One more thing to have to deal with. Got to nip it in the bud and hope that none of the other animals catch it.

Tutoring Offered Online

My God, where was the Internet and all that it has to offer when I was in school? A co worker of mine was telling me that her son was receiving tutoring via the Internet and I thought that that was pretty cool. I could have used some Math homework help back in my schooling years, especially middle and high school. Numbers and I have never gotten along, lord knows what I would do with out my handy dandy calculator.

I spent a good amount of time with the little old lady down the street that tutored the neighborhood kids for a small fee. It helped and I got through the school, but it was a real drag, I can tell you that. She smelled bad, like old moth balls and her teeth were always, well, just nasty. Just what a teen aged boy wants to spend time with after school.

From what I understand you can go to tutorvista.com  where they offer folks Free math help and Free homework help for a large variety of subjects, K -12 and even up into the college years. Pretty cool huh? Pass the word it’s all good!

How to Catch a Liar

I found this on Yahoo.com and thought it good enough to share here, interesting information since this world is filling up with so many liars these days!

How to Catch a Liar

1. How is the person speaking?

Although a change in voice can be the tip-off to a lie, experts say that to be sure, you should also pay attention to a person’s speech rate and breathing pattern — if either speeds up or slows down, chances are you’re not hearing the whole truth.

2. What is the person saying?

Liars tend to avoid exclusionary words like “but,” “nor,” “except,” and “whereas,” because they have trouble with complex thought processes. Liars are less likely to use the words “I,” “me,” and “mine.” In their attempts to distance themselves psychologically from their tall tales, liars will tend to communicate using fewer personal pronouns.

3. Is his face giving it away?

You may think disguising your true feelings is easily accomplished with the help of a smile, but the expressions that flash across your face will give away what you’re really thinking — whether you know it or not. Experts advise paying close attention to the micro-expressions that a face can’t hide. These clues are often so difficult to detect that even trained experts have trouble discerning them.

4. How is the person smiling?

A smile can sometimes mask a person’s true feelings. Pay close attention to how a person smiles as well as other facial movements. You may be able to detect the emotions he or she is trying to hide — such as fear, anger, and disgust. A true smile will incorporate both a person’s lips and eyes.

5. Does the body language follow the story?

It’s more important to examine a person’s entire demeanor, as there’s no one feature that’s apt to give away a liar. Honesty is characterized by features that are in sync with one another — so besides posture, note the fit between face, body, voice, and speech.

6. Is your subject behaving uncharacteristically?

Experts believe changes in a person’s baseline — how she generally conducts herself — are worthy of your attention. You should weigh rate of speech, tone of voice, posture, and hand gestures against what you know, along with the context of the situation.

7. Is the question simple or embarrassing?

It’s normal for someone to look away when asked a difficult question. But when someone avoids your gaze when asked a simple question, you should be suspicious.

Mesothelioma Issues

I have to say that I don’t know all the much about the much talked about this Mesothelioma Disease that a good amount of people are having to deal with these days. I do know that there seems to be a lot of commercials for Mesothelioma Attorney practices advertising their Mesothelioma Lawyer services for people to take advantage of.

I just recently found out that a neighbor has been in contact with one of these practices. It seems that he was in the Navy back in the Vietnam days and spent some time on a submarine, which is where he contacted this disease. He has been experiencing symptoms for years and had no idea what the cause of these symptoms was until just a few years back. I’m glad that he found out about this condition and is taking action and could possibly get some money to help with the situation. Our Vets deserve all that they can get for what they did for us and our country.

Wild Life

We get all types of wild life around the place, but rarely do we see a bear. Well last night I saw one and he saw me and stood up on his hind legs for a moment or two and then decided to vacate promptly, which was best for the both of us.
