Sexual harassment is any act done to embarrass anyone with the intention of getting sexual favors., taking advantage of his superior status in the exercise of employment, position or function .

Although this practice is regarded as a crime , unfortunately, the victim, in most cases, is silent for fear of reprisals such as loss of employment, since the attackers carry a much higher position than the victim. Being silent, however, is not the right thing to do, since, just like with bullying, the victim’s passivity only encourages the aggressor to continue his offensive behavior. Not to mention the discomfort that comes from constant constraints . In this guide Resourcefulus teaches you how to prevent sexual harassment .

1) Be aware of your own behavior in the workplace, often suggestive comments or dirty jokes, for you can be a natural and harmless, but are understood as a challenge for more daring behavior. Therefore, it is important to set limits .

2) Also, pay attention to your body language . For many people the physical contact is natural and automatic, that is, to talk, you are always touching, hugging, etc.. Such behavior can also be understood as a kind of dare, so avoid doing this to prevent misunderstandings .

3) Dress conservatively and appropriately . Suggestive clothes, with big necklines, short skirts, etc.can cause a wrong idea about you, encouraging the aggressor’s action.

4) Face the aggressor . It is important to do it soon, preferably the first time that he shows an inappropriate behavior. Explain that such behavior makes you uncomfortable and it would be better to stop with comments, touching or any improper action that is occurring. Many times the abuser does not even know they’re doing wrong to you because many think that the victim of such harassment appears to be “enjoying” it.

5) If the harassment persists, report the case to your superior or some competent authority. Do not feel intimidated or coerced , the law is on your side . Often an event to report harassment, and solve the problem, opens the way for other victims of the same perpetrator to take courage and speak out.If the fear of retaliation is too large, try to make the complaint anonymous.  The most important is not to shut your mouth about this incident.

Are you so embarrass to remove your shoes in front of other people because of your stinky feet? Can people not stand the smell of “blue cheese”  coming from your foot?  This is what you call bromhidrosis, also known as stinky feet!

This condition is the result of the interaction of bacteria with your feet’s sweat.  Sweat and moisture make an environment which is ideal for bacteria, fungi and other microorganisms to grow, absorb dead skin cells, and as a result generate waste materials that causes the bad odor Aside from that, other conditions that may increase the risk of having smelly feet are stress, drugs as well as hormonal changes. Tatiany Kermessi, a podiatrist, also points other factors that aggravate foot odor like acid diet, using plastic and synthetic shoes, using synthetic socks and stress.

The main solution to decrease the sweating of your feet is to lessen the quantity of bacteria in this area. Paula Belotti, a dermatologist said, “Antiperspirants and deodorants can diminish perspiration and bacterial growth. This will help get rid of the stinky smell  that bromhidrosis causes.

Another solution to prevent having stinky feet is through applying botulinum toxin or botox. This is also used for individuals who have too much sweating in the hands and armpits.

Other step that you can take to avoid foot odor is observe proper hygiene. Be sure to always wash your feet well, particularly between your nails and toes. Another precaution is that you must avoid using the same shoes each day.  Your shoes must be washed at least every 15 days.  You should not only wash the outside but the inside as well.

You may also soak your stinky feet in vodka in order to get rid of foot odor. This step was even tested by Discovery Channel’s Myth Busters and they were able to confirm that vodka indeed can prevent stinky feet. After soaking, discard the vodka and use a soft towel to dry your feet.

You can wash your feet using ordinary household bleach to kill the bacteria-causing odor. Mix  2 quarts of warm water and 1/4 cup of bleach, then soak your feet for 30 minutes. Rinse and then dry your feet. Do this weekly if the bad odor returns.

During breaks or if you’re at your desk, you can take off your shoes to allow air to your sweating feet. The increased circulation of air will make your feet dry and stop the odor.

• SUV : An ideal option for people with large family and for those who need large interior space and a big trunk.

• Pick-Up : This is best for the road, particularly those with turbo compressor and engine valves 16.  However, one disadvantage is that, sometimes, they don’t have a really comfy interior space, and a suspension stiffer which may be a hassle in urban areas.

• The 1.0 models are economical, however, they don’t give much power to the car engine.  This may give you difficulty when going to high areas, overtaking on steep roads, and the like.

• The 1.6 models performs well on hills and overtaking, because of the increased engine power.  They don’t require high fuel consumption as well.

• If you want a really powerful engine without worrying about the gasoline price, the 1.8 and 2.0 models are highly recommended.

4.    You may find it hard to decide whether to buy a new car (advantages: status, exclusivity, no damage to its structure, has a warranty, with certainty of origin) or a used car (advantage: a satisfying product with an affordable price ). Choose according to your needs.

5.    Another essential tip is not to spend above 20% of your monthly income for the payment of your car. Compromising this much portion of your salary may lead to financial problems in the future, particularly during emergency situations.
