1. Never go alone. The safe number is four so that in case of an accident, one can stay with the injured and the other two can go for help.
2. Wear proper climbing boots that are comfortable and not slippery.
3. Take along warm clothing.
4. Take along reserve rations.
5. Take survival aids----a whistle, first-aid kit and a flashlight.
6. Take a map and compass.
7. Plan walks carefully. Work out exactly where you are going to climb and make route lists.
8. Check the weather forecasts. On high ground, mist and rain can close in with a frightening speed.
9. Turn back if the weather deteriorates or if a route is proving too much for a companion or for the group.
10. Stay together whatever happens--unless, say, someone has an accident and one person must stay while the others go for help.
11. Always leave word where you are going and when you expect to return.
12. Keep to your planned route and schedule.
13. Know what to do in an emergency.
LOOK FOR:
1. Paths. Many mountain tracks are not shown on the map but do use those you find heading in your direction.
2. Easy slopes. To climb or descend, choose where the contours are well spaced rather than attack steep grass, rocks and scree on closed pack contours.
3. Ridges. The best walking always lies along the skyline where the main height has been gained and there is less distance to climb on the ups and downs of a horizon's crest. The footing is often short turf and the views are fantastic.

15 Tips On Buying The Right Kind Of Meat
1. If possible, look for the inspected and passed stamped marks, especially in big cuts of meat. It is dangerous to buy meat from ambulant meat peddlers (maglalako). It pays to go early in the market to your favorite "suki" while the butcher is still cutting the beef carcass into retail cuts. This will more or less help in the identification of a carcass, whether it's really cow's meat or carabao's or a horse's.
2. Know the different meat cuts.
3. Select meat for specific use. For example, shank and brisket for stew and tender portion like the loin muscles for steak, braising and broiling. In general the tender cuts lie along the back. The less tender cuts are those involved in the excessive movement of the animal such as the leg, shoulder and neck.
Remember that bones of young animals are porous and red while white in older animals.
The use of pressure cooker, if available, shortens cooking time thereby saving fuel and improves the tenderness of the meat.
4. Beef must be firm, bright red in color with yellow fat, free from slime and off-odor. Avoid brightly off-colored meat as this is an indication of the use of artificial coloring matter like "achuete" and other food-coloring.
5. When buying ground meat of good quality select from a big cut and have it ground by the butcher in your presence.
6. Buy refrigerated meat in places where refrigeration facilities are available.
7. Thawed meat must be cooked immediately. Avoid refreezing thawed meat. When storing meat to be frozen, package in convenient family size units and identify properly as to the kind of meat cuts and date of purchase.
8. Freeze quickly at zero or lower temperature. Beef should not be kept frozen for more than 12 months, while pork not over 6 months. Frozen meat is just as good as fresh meat provided it is properly handled.
9. Never wash soiled meat. Soiled meat should only be wiped with damp cloth.
10. Meat should not be wrapped in newspaper; use plastic bags or other vapor resistant wrapping materials.
11. The meat stall's cutting table must be smooth, free from crevices and kept clean at all times.
12. Keep dust and vermin away from the meat stalls.
13. Store packages correctly in the refrigerators. Refrain from overloading the freezer and provide space for the air to circulate inside the freezer.
14. Buy meat where proper hygiene and sanitation is observed by the handler.
15. Find time to attend seminars, read newspapers and magazines, meetings and demonstrations where proper handling of meat and meat products are discussed.

10 Tips On How To Exercise Properly(For Women Only)
1. Vigorous exercise will not hurt a pregnant woman. Exercise, in fact, can help a woman prepare for a more normal birth by strengthening those muscles she must use to help with the birth of her baby. Squatting and stooping exercises are especially helpful.
2. Strenuous sports will not hurt a woman. With few exceptions, women can condition themselves for almost any sport there is. And we may be surprised to find women excelling in competition with men in certain sports.
3. Exercise during menstruation is not harmful. In fact, exercises are often helpful in relieving menstrual cramps and backache. In general, bending and stooping exercises are most helpful to relieve discomfort.
4. Exercises shortly after having a baby will not make the female organs "drop". In fact, the sooner a woman can resume exercises after having a baby, the better her muscle support will be.
5. Exercise will help some women regain bladder control. Many women have delayed "lazy" muscles around the bladder neck that prevent adequate control of their bladder. When they cough, sneeze, laugh or strain, they lose urine involuntarily.
Not every woman with this problem can be cured, but most can be helped. Those whose loss of support is not great enough to require surgery will find definite improvement with specific exercises designed to strengthen these muscles. Ask your doctor to explain these exercises to you.
6. Exercise will help you lose weight, but this is only an adjunct to dieting. A woman cannot depend upon exercises alone to cause weight reduction. If she diets and exercises, her muscles will remain firm and she can avoid the flabbiness that could result from dieting alone.
7. Exercise is especially good for tall women. In addition to giving them the appearance of "radiant health", it will help them to improve their posture, which is often their greatest problem. It helps to prevent "slouching".
8. Exercise does increase the appetite, but it will not increase the weight unless a woman ignores all rules of eating.
9. Exercise will not cause you to "spot-lose" weight. In other words, you cannot lose weight only in one place,whether in diet or exercise. But dieting will help you to lose weight and exercises will help you to build up support and improve posture. Both combine to improve your appearance.
10. Finally, almost anyone can exercise. But make sure you are not the exception by checking with your doctor.

15 Tips On The Proper Use Of Insecticides
1. Read the label. Those that are labeled "non-toxic to humans" are the safest but must be handled carefully. Even though exposure to the substance once may not be dangerous, there is a growing concern about cumulative toxicity, the effect of long-term buildup. So use even the mild insecticides carefully. Use of the word "caution" also indicates a relatively mild insecticide.
2. When you get to the word "Warning," you know you have a more dangerous product. Follow the directions to the letter.
3. If you see the word "poison" and the old skull-and crossbones symbol, skip it and pick another product. Leave the stuff to the professionals and stay out of their way.
4. Read the instructions carefully. Never mix different insecticides together. Never mix an insecticides in greater strength than directed----it's only the bugs you want to kill, not pets or children or yourself.
5. Determine what you need for it. If it is one type of bug you are concerned about, then pick the least toxic insecticide that will kill the bug.
6. Keep the kids and the pets away when you dust or spray for a good length of time afterward.
7. Keep insecticides out of reach of children. Such dangerous material should be kept under lock and key. Don't store them with food products. Never use garden insecticides inside the house.

1. Begin to exercise care the the first time you open a book. Lay the book on its back. Open it a few pages at a time, beginning with one side, then on the other. Press lightly along the bound (inside) edge as you turn the pages to minimize the stiffness. It also helps to prevent "spine" injury.
2. Make a habit of using a book mark, instead of turning down page corners, or leaving a book lying face down.
3. Don't overcrowd book shelves, to allow easy removal of books----otherwise the spine will be damaged if you do it by force. To pull out a book from the shelf, insert forefinger and thumb on either side of the book, then gently slide it out.
4. Stack flat oversized books such as atlases, art and music books.
5. To preserve their binding, don't let your books slump on partly filled shelves. Use book ends so that they will stand upright.
6. Set books near the front of the shelf to allow air to circulate at the back.
7. Remember that too much heat dries out books; too much moisture causes mildew.
8. Condition leather-bound books for temperature changes with saddle soap or a fine paste wax. The best time to do it is when the book is new, then repeat every year or every two years. Apply a small amount of wax on a piece of clean, white, absorbent cloth. Spread quickly and lightly over the leather, making sure not to touch the end paper or pages. Muff immediately with a second soft, clean cloth.
9. Mend torn pages with gummed rice paper, onion skin or tissue.
10. Dust books every month with a soft, clean cloth.
11. Once a year, remove books from shelves and dust them individually.

6 Tips On Buying Cemetery Lots
1. Visit several cemeteries. Ask your minister for suggestions. Don't buy sight unseen.
2. Don't buy too big a plot. When children leave home, they may prefer to make their own arrangements.

6. Buying a cemetery lot intelligently boils down to this: make the purchase before the actual need, and check all legal and financial angles as carefully as you would in buying a house.

7 Tips on Proper Hair Care
1. Hair Massage--Massage will do little, if anything, to stimulate hair growth. If you are losing hair, see a doctor for possible medical help, but avoid self-styled "specialists" who offer so-called wonder tonics or cures.
2. Brushing---The old notion that 100 brush strokes a day produces beautiful hair is false. That much brushing may prove injurious, especially with brushes that pull the hair or scratch the scalp. Twelve to 15 strokes daily is usually sufficient.
3. Hair Sprays--Applied properly, most hair sprays will not harm the hair. Excessive use or failure to shampoo, however, can cause it to become dull.
4. Wigs-----Normal wig wearing is not injurious to the hair provided the wig is not too tight, but more shampooing may become necessary because wigs increase scalp perspiration.
5. Permanents-- Despite popular opinion, we have no medical evidence that permanents are ineffective during pregnancy. Women using hair dryers, however, should apply low heat to keep from splitting or otherwise damaging their hair.
6. Cutting-----Although trimming may beautify hair by removing damaged or split ends, cutting does not promote faster growth. Hair grows at the same rate regardless and the rate is largely a matter of heredity.
7. Braiding----Tight or frequent braiding may pull at the hait roots and cause damage. Hair should not be left braided overnight, and rubber bands or tight clips should be avoided.

5 Tips On How To Guard Your House Against Mud And Pet Stains
1. Check for colorfastness before cleaning any rug or carpet for the first time . Rub an inconspicuous area of the carpet with a damp white cloth. If carpet is not colorfast, the damp cloth will get stained. When bleeding happens, check with the manufacturer if possible, or a professional carpet cleaner for cleaning information.
2. Turn area rugs periodically to distribute soil and wear in traffic areas such as small throw rugs, particularly in front of frequently used sofas or chairs. The occasional rearrangement of furniture will help keep the good looks and life of area rugs and wall-to-wall carpeting.
3. Vacuum regularly to keep rugs and carpets clean. This reduces the chances of sharp, jagged bits of dirt from literally cutting at the rugs' fibers, thus shortening the life of the carpet. Vacuum daily areas that receive heavy traffic.
4. When liquids are spilled, blot up right away as much moisture as possible with absorbent cloths. If stain remains from spilled liquid, treat with dry cleaning solvent for greasy spills, or a weak white vinegar and water solution for alkaline spills. Then clean with rug shampoo.
5. Treat wet spots as soon as the accident occurs. First, blot up as much moisture as possible, then wash areas with rug shampoo or a mild detergent and water solution. Next, to neutralize the highly alkaline odor of animal urine, sponge the stain with a weak white vinegar and water solution. Guard against over-wetting while doing this, blotting up any excess moisture from these two treatments. Then dry area as quickly as possible. An electric fan may help speed the drying up.

4. When liquids are spilled, blot up right away as much moisture as possible with absorbent cloths. If stain remains from spilled liquid, treat with dry cleaning solvent for greasy spills, or a weak white vinegar and water solution for alkaline spills. Then clean with rug shampoo.
5. Treat wet spots as soon as the accident occurs. First, blot up as much moisture as possible, then wash areas with rug shampoo or a mild detergent and water solution. Next, to neutralize the highly alkaline odor of animal urine, sponge the stain with a weak white vinegar and water solution. Guard against over-wetting while doing this, blotting up any excess moisture from these two treatments. Then dry area as quickly as possible. An electric fan may help speed the drying up.
10 Safety Tips For Biking
1. Be sure the bike's seat is at the right height and is securely fastened.
2. The bell or warning signal is to be used only to tell others of your approach.
3. It is not advisable to carry a passenger on the back of your bicycle. This overloads your bike; it is not well balanced and it may trip over easily.
4. It is courteous not to drive too fast. Riding at a brisk speed, a rider may knock down or bump into a commuter or bystander.
5. It is safe to keep to the right and to turn at corners slowly.
6. Respect the rights of pedestrians, especially if biking on sidewalk is permitted.
7. Always give pedestrians the right-of-way.
8. It is not good and safe to hook your bicycle onto an other bicycle or any vehicle in motion.
9. Obey traffic lights, traffic signs and road markings.
10. Provide a good reflector behind your bicycle so it can be seen well at night.
