Hi Everyone!I would like to talk about safety while dating online.1. Personal Information. It's not necessary nor advisable to provide personal information such as your last name or your address. You should wait till you really know who are you dealing with.2. Too Many Mysteries. Confidentiality and discretion are always advisable, but if your partner feels uncomfortable with your curiosity, he or she might be hiding something.3. Picture. If someone denies you absolutely the possibility of exchanging his or her picture, even when doing so privately, he or she might be hiding something.4. There's No Rush. Asking you out from the second message or saying that he or she is in love with you, it should make you think about who are you really dealing with. Use always your common sense.5. Phone N

Before we start...you need to recognize that the only way to stay truly safe in a dating situation is to not date, period! There are always risks in dating, especially when you date strangers (blind dates, first dates and cyber-dates). In addition, teens should not be cyberdating. There are special rules for teens online. These tips are just for those over 18 years old.Cyberdating is a little different from the other first dates, though. When you first meet a cyberdate in person, offline, you feel as though you know them - the normal first date precautions are often tossed to the wind. You know their favorite actors, authors and foods. You know everything they have told you, but they may not have been telling you the truth. You do not really know them. So treat them as strangers, use all the normal precautions you use with strangers, even cute ones. You should not give any more information to a first cyberdate than you would to a stranger you meet on a plane, or in a club, or in a bar.

By: Leslie GerardThese days, people are shopping for a lot more than apparel online. If youre looking for love, the internet may very well replace your favorite singles hot spot. Its important to note that dating in cyberspace requires a different approach, in many ways, than you may normally expect on the average dating scene.When you first meet someone online, avoid the temptation to divulge too much information about yourself. This is especially true when it comes to your full name, address and/or telephone number. You wouldnt give this information to a perfect stranger, so why give it someone that youve just met online? Chatting via IM isnt so much different than a telephone and if someone seems overly pushy when it comes to getting your personal information, theres probably a reason and its not likely to be a good one. Although many people have found success with it, meeting someone online is a gamble to say the least. Theres no way to know for certain who you are talking to and,

SHARP EDGESNew toys intended for children under eight years of age should, by regulation, be free of sharp glass and metal edges. With use, however, older toys may break, exposing cutting edges.SMALL PARTSOlder toys can break to reveal parts small enough to be swallowed or to become lodged in a child's windpipe, ears or nose. The law bans small parts in new toys intended for children under three. This includes removable small eyes and noses on stuffed toys and dolls, and small, removable squeakers on squeeze toys. LOUD NOISES Toy caps and some noisemaking guns and other toys can produce sounds at noise levels that can damage hearing. The law requires the following label on boxes of caps producing noise above a certain level: "WARNING −− Do not fire closer than one foot to the ear. Do not use indoors." Caps producing noise that can injure a child's hearing are banned.CORDS AND STRINGSToys with long strings or cords may be dangerous for infants and very young children. The cords ma

Look for and heed age recommendations, such as "Not recommended for children under three". Look for other safety labels including: "Flame retardant/Flame resistant" on fabric products and "Washable/hygienic materials" on stuffed toys and dolls.WHEN MAINTAINING TOYSCheck all toys periodically for breakage and potential hazards.

By: Nicole MunozRespecting nature should be a top priority anytime you relax or play in the great outdoors. Camping safety and protecting yourself from common outdoor hazards should be just as important. Each year, thousands of accidents occur in the outdoors as a result of camper and backpacker carelessness. Protect yourself with these camping safety tips.Campfire SafetyCampfire negligence is a leading cause of forest fires and also causes many camping injuries and deaths. Only build your campfires in designated areas. Most campgrounds provide fire rings or pits for campfires or you can use a Coleman fireplace to safely contain your campfire. Keep the area surrounding your campfire free of trash and other debris that could ignite and set your tent, chairs, and other gear a safe distance from the flame.Many campgrounds and state parks provide wood for campfires for a small price, but supplies are often low during peak seasons. Bring your own dry firewood to avoid taking wood from the n

Crib DesignDispose of antique cribs with decorative cutouts, corner posts or lead paint. The space between the slats should be no more than 2−3/8 inches apart to prevent infants from getting their head stuck between them. Cribs manufactured after 1974 must meet this and other strict safety standards. The corner posts should be the same height as the end panels or less than 1/16 of an inch higher than the end panels.No cut−out areas on the headboard or foot board so a baby's head cannot get trapped. The top rails of crib sides, in their raised position, should be at least 26 inches above the top of the mattress support at its lowest position.As soon as the child can pull himself to a standing position, set and keep the mattress at its lowest position. Stop using the crib once the height of the top rails is less than three−fourths of the child's height.MattressThe mattress should fit snugly next to the crib so that there is no gap.

Most single women avoid traveling alone abroad. I know I did. Until I got a job that involved traveling alone every month, at which point I had to face the realities of being a single woman traveler. I’ve had to use the men’s room more times than I can count. I’ve been proposed to by a stranger (thanks to a short skirt). I’ve even had to avoid another traveler whose psychopathic tendencies turned my friendly conversation into some sort of deep friendship. But the point is that I’ve learned the hard way that when traveling alone, whether you are a woman, man or child, you have to be aware. Aware of culture and surroundings and how you are perceived by others. Personal safety does not start with a bottle of pepper spray, it starts with being aware of your surroundings. That being said, I am definitely not against letting go and having fun. Traveling alone has opened my eyes to so much, especially about myself. It’s been invigorating, enlightening

Take the medication at the same time each day. Check with your doctor before using nonprescription drugs, especially ones that contain aspirin. Talk to your doctor before taking any vitamins or supplements. Tell any new health professionals that you are taking medication that affects how your blood clots. Be alert for signs of bleeding, and call the doctor immediately if any of the following symptoms occur: Blood in urine or red or tarry stools; Bleeding from the nose or gums or spitting up blood; New, excessive, or prolonged vaginal bleeding; and, Frequent, severe bruising or tiny red or purple spots on the skin.Talk to your doctor about medications you are taking to find out how often you should have blood tests. If you are taking ticlopidine, get frequent blood tests to check your white blood cell count during the first 3 months of treatment.

Get regular blood tests to ensure that you are taking the right amount of medication. Eat a balanced diet. Do not suddenly change your intake of vitamin K–rich foods, such as broccoli, brussels sprouts, cabbage, asparagus, lettuce, spinach, and some vegetable juices. It is most important to maintain a consistent level of vitamin K foods in your diet. Vitamin K can interfere with the action of warfarin, making it more likely that your blood will clot. Avoid excessive use of alcohol. If you drink, do so only in moderation. Alcohol may increase the effect of warfarin. Don't use tobacco of any kind. Talk to your doctor before taking any vitamins or supplements. Do not take ginkgo biloba or garlic while using warfarin. Avoid activities that have a high risk for injury, such as skiing, football, or other contact sports. If you are taking warfarin, an injury could result in excessive bleeding. Wear a seat

BBQing as it is commonly known or grilling is one of America's favorite summer past times. Why grill? Grilling provides an opportunity to entertain family and friends. It is a stress-free and relaxing way to prepare delicious nutritious meals on weekdays or weekends. Preparing meals during the summer months on the stove or in the oven increase the heat in our home causing our cooling bill to increase. To save energy and money why not "fire up the grill."According to the National Fire Protection Agency approximately 1,000 structure fires and 3,400 outdoor fires are caused by barbecue grills annually. Safe grilling begins before the cooking starts.Check the connection between the propane tank and the fuel line on gas grills, to be sure there are no leaks and that it is working properly.Never use a match to check for a gas leak. If you suspect a leak, put soapy water on the area and watch for bubbles to form. This will identify the area of the leakage. Never light a grill that has a leak

Every time I turn on the TV or log onto the Internet lately, there's another news story about food recalls or food safety risks.Now that summer is here, it becomes even more important to remember and prevent the health risks that accompany food preparation during warmer weather. These reminders should help you keep your food safe: * Make sure you start any cooking project with clean surfaces and utensils - taking this precaution right off the bat will reduce the risk of spreading bacteria and food-borne illness. * After preparing raw meat or poultry, immediately wash your hands, all work surfaces, and utensils. And never bring any other foods into contact with the utensils and platters you've used for the raw meat or poultry. * Thaw foods in the refrigerator unless they will be cooked immediately after thawing. If a frozen food comes in a sealed package, it can be thawed in a cold-water bath. * Marinate steaks and chicken in the refrigerator as well. And remember: Never r

by Bruce ChambersIf you're having a party, provide food with drinks. Offer non-alcoholic substitutes such as fruit, soft drinks.2 drinks taken within an hour by a person 100 pounds produces a 075 reading. One drink is equal to about 1.5 oz. of whisky or 2 bottles of beer. The rate of elimination for each hour after drinking has stopped is 015. A 200-pound person, after 1 drink produces a reading of .019, so you can see there is a big difference due to weight.

Yup, it's a trend! This is our third example of safety advice so glaringly obvious that we can only assume its target audience will need someone with a higher IQ to read it to them very, very slowly. This time it's not a press release. It's an actual, honest-to-God story from an intern at the Daily Press in Newport News, VA. Katie Bahr lowers the bar for local drivers, telling them "When a school bus stops and its red lights are flashing, no cars are allowed to pass the bus from either direction until it is moving again, state law says." For riders, Bahr turns to David Benware, the director of transportation at Hampton City Public Schools. "Make sure the bus has come to a complete stop before beginning to approach it from the outside or — if you're on the bus — before getting out of your seat." We'll add that children should remain seated when the bus is in motion.
