Here are Safety Tips for Women Travelling Alone, read through this article and travel safely. While travelling is for a variety of reasons, traveling to explore the unknown is an experience that is exhilarating. Besides being a way to pass time, just the realization there are hundreds of tourist destinations in Africa, should be enough to awaken the explorer in you. Over the years it has become quite normal for a guy to travel solo, on the other hand the female lone traveler isn’t as common and evokes worry. Clearly society perceives solo female travelers as easy preys, species who could easily be in danger. Nowadays the ladies are taking the plunge into the world of the lone traveler, we salute them and offer them a few safety tips below. <b>Dressing up</b> The way you dress creates your first impression; things always go right when you come off as smart and confident. A hint of weakness could make you a target when traveling, dressing provocatively or extravagant could create an experience you would like to forget. Dress for the occasion, when in Rome dress like the Romans; when visiting a conservative place observe the people, you wouldn’t like to be the only one wearing a bikini at the beach. Blending in with the locals when visiting metropolitan areas, dress comfortably with light attires. If your trip involves a lot of exploring on foot, wear comfortable flats, loafers or sneakers. <b>Engage Yourself</b> While what you wear my might be your first impression, how you engage and communicate with those around you completes the picture. Make your mark in certain places; engage people around in conversations so your absence will be noticed in places near your hotel, tour bus and campground. Also stay connected with friends and family online; make use of apps like whatsapp and BBM to check in. <b>Move on, don’t over indulge</b> While it's good to engage people around, you should avoid getting too comfortable with strangers. If possible create the impression you are in town with a friend but had to split up. Avoid exchanging personal information when making calls in open places; you never know who is listening in. Don’t over indulge men; you might need to buy a fake wedding ring to fend off guys you are not interested in. The ring helps create the perception you are not traveling alone and your hubby just might be in the neighborhood. <b>Read More</b> http://www.caltrends.com.ng/2016/11/here-are-safety-tips-for-women.html Source: http://www.caltrends.com.ng

TV/Movies / See How To Add Subtitles In Windows Media Player On Pc by Mikadocal: 10:27pm On Nov 07, 2016 |
While Microsoft has introduced a new media player app dubbed Movies & TV with Windows 10, it still includes the age old Windows Media Player. It's a wise move, considering there are a number of people who still use the Windows Media Player for its simplicity. While Windows Media Player is great when it comes to handling simple media playing tasks, chances are, you are here because you haven't been able to add external subtitles to videos in the application. If you explore the web, you will find various ways that claim to fix subtitle addition in Windows Media Player, however, in our experience, most of those ways don't really work. Well, the good news is, we tried different options and we did manage to add subtitles in Windows Media Player. So, without further ado, here's how to add subtitles in Windows Media Player: 1. The first step is to make sure that the video file and its subtitle file feature the exact same name. Windows Media Player does not let you add subtitles manually and it only detects the subtitles when they have the same name as the video. 2. Once done, open Windows Media Player and in the Library Mode, go to Play -> Lyrics, captions, and subtitlesand click on "On if available". You can also find this option in the Now Playing Mode by right clicking on the top. 3. Then, download the DirectVobSub (VSFilter) codec and install it on your PC...http://www.caltrends.com.ng/2016/11/tech-see-how-to-add-subtitles-in.html source:http://www.caltrends.com.ng |

Travel / Need Visa Application? Here Are Tips For Successful Visa Interview by Mikadocal: 7:22am On Nov 03, 2016 |
Below, we have been given tips on what they must do to scale through their visa application without any difficulty. 1) TIES TO HOME COUNTRY Under US law, all applicants for non-immigrant visas are viewed as intending immigrants until they can convince the consular officer that they are not. You must therefore be able to show that you have reasons for returning to your home country that are stronger than those for remaining in the United States. "Ties" to your home country are the things that bind you to your hometown, homeland, or current place of residence (i.e., job, family, financial prospects that you own or will inherit, investments, etc). If you are a prospective student, the interviewing officer may ask about your specific intentions or promise of future employment, family or other relationships, educational objectives, grades, long-long range plans, and career prospects in your home country. Each person’s situation is different, of course, and there is no magic explanation or single document, certificate, or letter, which can guarantee visa issuance. 2) ENGLISH Anticipate that the interview will be conducted in English and not in your native language. One suggestion is to practice English conversation with a native speaker before the interview. If you are coming to the United States solely to study intensive English, be prepared to explain how English will be useful for you in your home country. 3) SPEAK FOR YOURSELF Do not bring parents or family members with you to your interview. The consular officer wants to interview you, not your family. A negative impression is created if you are not prepared to speak on your own behalf. If you are a minor applying for a high school program and need your parents there in case there are questions, for example, about funding, they should wait in the waiting room. 4) KNOW THE PROGRAM AND HOW IT FITS YOUR CAREER PLANS If you are not able to articulate the reasons you will study in a particular program in the United States, you may not succeed in convincing the consular officer that you are indeed planning to study, rather than to immigrate. You should also be able to explain how studying in the United States relates to your future professional career in your home country. 5) BE CONCISE Because of the volume of applications that are received, all consular officers are under considerable time pressure to conduct a quick and efficient interview. They must make a decision, for the most part, on the impressions they form during the first minute or two of the interview. Consequently, what you say first and the initial impression you create are critical to your success. Keep your answers to the officer’s questions short and to the point. 6) SUPPLEMENTAL DOCUMENTATION It should be clear at a glance to the consular officer what written documents you are presenting and what they signify. Lengthy written explanations cannot be quickly read or evaluated. Remember that you will have 2-3 minutes of interview time, if you’re lucky. 7) NOT ALL COUNTRIES ARE EQUAL Applicants from countries suffering economic problems or from countries where many students have remained in the United States as immigrants will have more difficulty getting visas. Statistically, applicants from those countries are more likely to be asked about job opportunities at home after their study in the United States....continue reading http://www.caltrends.com.ng/2016/11/need-visa-application-here-are-tips-for.html source: http://www.caltrends.com.ng 2 Likes |

Health / Health: See Deadly Hpv Disease, Worse Than Hiv/aids That C0ndoms Can’t Stop. by Mikadocal: 12:18am On Nov 03, 2016 |
Obviously, Unmarried men too seem to prefer condoms as the popular method to protect against STIs. But for a virus whose disease has no symptoms, the inefficacy of condoms allows for faster and wider spread, especially amongst those with multiple sex partners. The only 100 percent effective way to prevent HPV transmission is abstinence from any sexual contact, including 0ral, anal, and vaginal sex. See also: Morning after:That ‘oops’ moment when women’s emergency pills backfire Since abstinence may not be a realistic option, Dr Mugo advises remaining monogamous while in a relationship, vaccination and screening for women. Women can also pass viruses without having any symptoms. But the chance of females infecting men is estimated at less than five per cent of the rates of male-to-female transmission. There are more than 100 types of HPV and about 13 of these are cancer causing, with HPV types 16 and 18 causing approximately 70 percent of all cervical cancers worldwide. Sadly, it’s physically difficult to tell whether your partner has the HPV virus unless they have pr!vate part warts, yet those who do not have visible signs can also spread the virus. read more...http://www.caltrends.com.ng/2016/11/health-alert-deadly-hpv-disease-worse.html Source: http://www.caltrends.com.ng |

Romance / Guys, Here Are 10 Ways To Impress Any Girl On First Date by Mikadocal: 8:19am On Nov 02, 2016 |
Obviously, A first date can be pretty intimidating for any guy. Your mind starts stressing about the tiniest things, right from what you should wear on the date till how you should greet her when you see her. While there is no such thing as a ‘perfect’ date, we have come up with a list of small ways to impress her while on the date, to increase your chances for a second date. In the end, it is always about the little things, which create the best first impression. 1. Be A Gentleman The utmost means to impress a girl on the first date is to be a complete gentleman. Pick her up from her place, get her flowers, open the door for her, pull out the chair for her, be polite to the waiter, the valet, and every person you interact with. Being a gentleman is one of the most effective ways to ensure that you get a second date. Men seem more charming and attractive when they adopt these old-school means to impress a woman. A first date can be a pretty nervous affair for the both of you, so it never hurts to keep this tips in mind when you’re on the date. Maintain the romantic vibe, make her feel comfortable, and you’ll have no problem making the date successful, and impressing her enough to get a second date. 2. Pay For The Date While there is a strong amount of feminism surrounding this topic, it is always considered to be better if a guy pays, at least on the first date. A girl will definitely offer to pay or split the bill, but since its a date and you definitely don’t want to be friend-zoned, pay the bill for the night. If you let her pay for the entire date, it destroys the whole point of you asking her out on the date. This is considered a deal-breaker for almost every woman. 3. Think of Questions There is nothing more awkward on a date than the silence when none of you can think of topics to talk about. In order to avoid this, make a set of cute questions before the date, in order to get to know her better. Don’t go too personal, stick to stuff like where she studied, what her first job was, and what her pet is like. She will be impressed by your effort to get to know her, and she will reciprocate by asking you the same questions, making sure that there won’t be any dull moment in the date. 4. Don’t Use Your Phone Your phone is your worst enemy during a first date. If you spend the entire date staring at your phone screen, your date will feel ignored and she will think the date was a waste of her time. Only attend extremely important phone calls, and apologise to her when you do. Your social media applications can wait while you’re on an important date. Keep this mantra in your head during the date. You might definitely be tempted to view the unopened conversations on your phone, but resist that temptation till the end of the date. Give your date your utmost attention in order to make a good impression. 5. check others: http://www.caltrends.com.ng/2016/11/guys-here-are-10-ways-to-impress-any.html Source: http://caltrends.com.ng
