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.

2. Do not starch household linen that is to be stored for long periods, or don't store clothes that are unclean.
3. Leave open once in a while closets, cabinets or drawers to freshen air and keep interiors dry. Or, use a handy hair dryer now and then to discourage moisture build-up.
4. Brush thoroughly upholstered furniture or rugs that show mildew. If possible, do this outdoors where they get lots of sun and fresh air. Should mildew stains remain stubborn, sponge lightly with thick suds, then wipe clean with damp cloth. Or, use half-and-half solution of alcohol and water, but use the solution sparingly, then dry very well.

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.
