I find the dating scene to be so complicated and scary. Most people in our society today are involved with online dating. But there are so many possibilities of becoming targets. And what I mean by targets is, victims of rapists, abusers, or thiefs! What should a person do if they find themselves in a position where they like someone, but they’ve met online, and are unsure of what percautions to take? Here are some safety tips for you to fall back on.

1. Always meet your interest in a public place. If they tell you they don’t like public places for
some reason or another. Leave them alone! They are probably up to no good.

2. Get as much information as you can about your interest before you meet. Address, Place
of employment, Bank, etc., and check up on this information before meeting them. You need to
know that they are being honest and up front with you from the start.

3. Bring a friend to watch over you. This friend should not be joining you, but be off to the side
close by, taking pictures. This friend should get a picture of their car, license plate number,
the interest themselves, etc. They won’t know who you know (unless you have their
face plastered on the website you met them on).

4. Don’t forget to bring your cell phone, which hopefully has voice activation. If at any point you
start feeling uncomfortable with his advances, you can just reach inside your purse and push
the side of your phone and start recording. I give this advice, because if you decide you want
to file charges against him for harassment, the police will need some kind of proof.

5. Never give them too much information. Don’t get into bank accounts, where your kids go to
school (it’s none of their business unless they want to start paying their child support), how
much income you make, where you keep your valuables in the home (they could follow you
home and break in while your gone, or worse, sleeping!)

It’s a very unsafe world these days, and people are becoming harder and harder to trust. I know…I’ve made this mistake. And it almost cost me my life! Worse yet, I didn’t have the smarts at the time to take these precautions, and the police had very little to go on. I never did catch my attacker.

Be safe…not sorry!

When purchasing a pet lizard, be aware that it will need plenty of live food. Lizards love catching and eating live creatures, and if you give your lizard a variety of live insects and bugs, it will stay healthy and live a long, happy, cold-blooded life. You can find live food for your lizard at any pet store that sells lizards.

Choosing live food:

Choose the live food/foods you would like to give your lizard from an array of creatures such as, flies, locusts, wax worms, mealworms, black crickets and house crickets. As a general rule of thumb, never give your lizard any live food that is larger than the width of the lizards head. Make certain that the store you purchase these live creatures from is reputable and sells good quality insects and worms. If you need a good recommendation for a store, ask a veterinarian that will treat a reptile.

Taking Care of the Live Food:

You will need to take care of the insects and worms as they wait on death row, or they will not be “live food” for the lizard come mealtime. Put the insects or worms in a container with holes in the top for ventilation. A bug box works great because no hole punching is necessary. Feed them pieces of soft fruit or vegetables or insect food, which you can also purchase at a pet store. Always keep food for your insects or worms in the bug container so that they never go hungry.

Feeding the Lizard:

Dust the insects or worms with a calcium rich vitamin powder, purchased at the pet store, right before feeding them to the lizard. This will give supplementary nutrients to the lizard, which will keep him healthy. Put the powder in a zip lock bag, add the insects or worms, and shake very gently until they are thoroughly coated directly before feeding time. Do not over shake or shake the bag too roughly or you may harm or kill the insects. Shake the insects or worms out of the bag directly into the lizard’s home, being careful that any hopping bugs do not escape.

Tip:

Another rule of thumb: do not feed the lizard more than it will consume in a few hours. If the insects remain after several hours, remove them and place them back into the insect container if they are still alive.

The experience of Croatia.

Ever thought of going to Croatia or you just heard many things about that beautiful country?

Well if so, I will guide you and give you all the information you need.

Dubrovnik

Dubrovnik is on top of my list. Dubrovnik was founded in the first half of the 7th century and that automatically tells you that this city has a lot of history in it. Libertas Summer Festival is the one of the most celebrated events in Croatia. Music, theater, and dance attracts thousands of visitors which is held indoor and on open-air stages of the Renaissance city. The food and restaurants are always crowded with locals and tourists and the menus contain the best flavors of Dalmatian cuisine. Variety of pasta dishes, plenty of different seafood meals, and juicy steaks. Most of the restaurants you see are owned by private owners so the food and specialties they prepare are unique and can’t be eaten anywhere else.

After a lazy day on the beach and couple of beers, the nightlife is the key to unleash yourself with great music and tropical drinks. The most popular club in Dubrovnik is Latino Club Fuego, which opened in June of 2001. With an interesting designed interior, great music, and reasonable prices, the visitors love coming back and they quickly become permanent satisfied guests.

One special reason to come to Dubrovnik is to watch the City Brass band. The sound of trumpets, trombones, bombardina, clarinets, tambourines will make you feel the origin and history of this century old city.
