2. Lack of Specifics
Employers need to understand what you’ve done and accomplished. For example:

- Worked with employees in a restaurant setting.
- Recruited, hired, trained and supervised more than 20 employees in a restaurant with $2 million in annual sales.

Both of these phrases could describe the same person, but clearly the second one’s details and specifics will more likely grab an employer’s attention.

3. Attempting One Size Fits All
Whenever you try to develop a one-size-fits-all resume to send to all employers, you almost always end up with something employers will toss in the recycle bin. Employers want you to write a resume specifically for them. They expect you to clearly show how and why you fit the position in a specific organization.

4. Highlighting Duties Instead of Accomplishments
It’s easy to slip into a mode where you simply start listing job duties on your resume. For example:

- Attended group meetings and recorded minutes.
- Worked with children in a day-care setting.
- Updated departmental files.

Employers, however, don’t care so much about what you’ve done as what you’ve accomplished in your various activities. They’re looking for statements more like these:

- Used laptop computer to record weekly meeting minutes and compiled them in a Microsoft Word-based file for future organizational reference.
- Developed three daily activities for preschool-age children and prepared them for a 10-minute holiday program performance.
- Reorganized 10 years’ worth of unwieldy files, making them easily accessible to department members.

5. Too Long or Cutting Things Too Short
Despite what you may read or hear, there are no real rules governing the length of your resume. Why? Because human beings, who have different preferences and expectations where resumes are concerned, will be reading it.

That doesn’t mean you should start sending out five-page resumes, of course. Generally speaking, you usually need to limit yourself to a maximum of two pages. But don’t feel you have to use two pages if one will do. Conversely, don’t cut the meat out of your resume simply to make it conform to an arbitrary one-page standard.

6. Bad Objective
Employers do read your resume’s objective statement, but too often they plow through vague pufferies like, “Seeking a challenging position that offers professional growth.” Give employers something specific and, more importantly, something that focuses on their needs as well as your own. Example: “A challenging entry-level marketing position that allows me to contribute my skills and experience in fund-raising for nonprofits.”

7. No Action Verbs
Avoid using phrases like “responsible for.” Instead, use action verbs: “Resolved user questions as part of an IT help desk serving 4,000 students and staff.”

8. Leaving Off Important Information
You may be tempted, for example, to eliminate mention of the jobs you’ve taken to earn extra money for school. Typically, however, the soft skills you’ve gained from these experiences (e.g., work ethic, time management) are more important to employers than you might think.

9. Visually Too Busy
If your resume is wall-to-wall text featuring five different fonts, it will most likely give the employer a headache. So show your resume to several other people before sending it out. Do they find it visually attractive? If what you have is hard on the eyes, revise.

10. Incorrect Contact Information
I once worked with someone whose resume seemed incredibly strong, but he wasn’t getting any bites from employers. So one day, I asked him if the phone number he’d listed on his resume was correct. It wasn’t. Once he changed it, he started getting the calls he’d been expecting.

According to the Mayo Clinic, adults should get seven to eight hours of sleep a night. The Cleveland Clinic suggests that adults should get at least seven and a half hours of sleep a night and not much more than eight hours a night. Though older adults might sleep more lightly than they did as younger adults, this change does not mean that they need less sleep. In fact, the Mayo Clinic states that adults who sleep about seven hours a night have lower mortality rates than those who sleep much more or much less.

Too much sleep can be harmful, as well as too little sleep. According to the Mayo Clinic, oversleeping on a regular basis can lead to depression, weight gain and a variety of other health problems.

According to the Mayo Clinic, people who consistently get enough sleep have a stronger immune system and are less likely to get sick if exposed to a virus. When you sleep, your body produces proteins called cytokines. These proteins help fight infections, so if you have higher levels, you are better able to fight infections. You may avoid getting sick altogether, or if you do get sick, you can recover more quickly. You will also have more mental and physical energy and a better memory.

Sleep quality matters just as much as sleep duration. Sleep apnea, waking up frequently and other sleep problems might prevent you from sleeping deeply enough and reaping the benefits of healthy sleep. If you cannot fall asleep within 15 or 20 minutes or if you wake up in the night and cannot fall back to sleep within that time, you should leave the room and do something relaxing, according to the Cleveland Clinic. Only try to fall asleep when you feel tired enough. Avoiding daytime naps and performing regular daily exercise can also help you sleep more deeply.

1. Sit down in a comfy place such as a reclining chair, beanbag, or preferably, (you knew it was coming) a couch (just don’t sit on a potato!). Make it even more comfortable than it already is, but with minimal effort, of course!

2. Make sure you have everything you need. Such as snacks (junk food is great for being a couch potato), drinks, magazines, comic books (if you’re into that stuff), and most importantly, a television and remote(s).

3. Do something that doesn’t involve getting up. Flip through TV channels, or just eat.

4. Now just watch TV, because that’s pretty much all a couch potato does! Flip through the channels. Give each show about 10 seconds to entertain you, and if it doesn’t, just move onto the next one. If it does, watch until the show ends, or until you lose interest.

5. Another thing couch potatoes are famous for is playing video games. Go rent one that looks good or play one you already own! Please note that some Wii games involve some movement which could hinder your status as a couch potato.

6. Have others do things for you, like get you more food, or rent a movie for you, etc. But be sure to be nice about it, because if they refuse, you’ll most likely have to do it yourself.

What is the correct way of eating fruits?

It means not eating fruits after your meals! Fruits should be eaten on an empty stomach.

If you eat fruit like that, it will play a major role to detoxify your system, supplying you with a great deal of energy for weight loss and other life activities.

Fruit is the most important food. Let’s say you eat two slices of bread and then a slice of fruit. The slice of fruit is ready to go straight through the stomach into the intestines, but it is prevented from doing so.

In the meantime the whole meal rots and ferments and turns to acid. The minute the fruit comes into contact with the food in the stomach and digestive juices, the entire mass of food begins to spoil.

Eat your fruits on an empty stomach or before your meals. You have heard people complaining – every time I eat watermelon I burp, when I eat durian my stomach bloats up, when I eat a banana I feel like running to the toilet, etc. Actually all this will not arise if you eat the fruit on an empty stomach. The fruit mixes with the putrefying other food and produces gas and hence you will bloat!

Graying hair, balding, nervous outburst, and dark circles under the eyes all these will not happen if you take fruits on an empty stomach.

There is no such thing as some fruits, like orange and lemon are acidic, because all fruits become alkaline in our body. If you have mastered the correct way of eating fruits, you have the Secret of beauty, longevity, health, energy, happiness and normal weight.

When you need to drink fruit juice – drink only fresh fruit juice, not from the cans. Don’t even drink juice that has been heated up. Don’t eat cooked fruits because you don’t get the nutrients at all. You only get to taste. Cooking destroys all the vitamins.

But eating a whole fruit is better than drinking the juice. If you should drink the juice, drink it mouthful by mouthful slowly, because you must let it mix with your saliva before swallowing it. You can go on a 3-day fruit fast to cleanse your body. Just eat fruits and drink fruit juice throughout the 3 days and you will be surprised when your friends tell you how radiant you look!

KIWI: Tiny but mighty. This is a good source of potassium, magnesium, vitamin E and fiber. Its vitamin C content is twice that of an orange.

APPLE: An apple a day keeps the doctor away although an apple has low vitamin C content, it has antioxidants and flavonoids which enhances the activity of vitamin C thereby helping to lower the risks of colon cancer, heart attack and stroke.

STRAWBERRY: Protective Fruit. Strawberries have the highest total antioxidant power among major fruits and protect the body from cancer-causing, blood vessel-clogging free radicals.

ORANGE: Sweetest medicine. Taking 2-4 oranges a day may help keep colds away, lower cholesterol, prevent and dissolve kidney stones as well as lessens the risk of colon cancer.

WATERMELON: Coolest thirst quencher. Composed of 92% water, it is also packed with a giant dose of glutathione, which helps boost our immune system. They are also a key source of lycopene – the cancer fighting oxidant. Other nutrients found in watermelon are vitamin C and potassium.

GUAVA and PAPAYA: Top awards for vitamin C. They are the clear winners for their high vitamin C content. Guava is also rich in fiber, which helps prevent constipation. Papaya is rich in carotene; this is good for your eyes.

Drinking cold water after a meal is highly discouraged. It’s nice to have a cup of cold drink after a meal. However, the cold water will solidify the oily stuff that you have just consumed. It will slow down the digestion. Once this ’sludge’ reacts with the acid, it will break down and be absorbed by the intestine faster than the solid food. It will line the intestine. Very soon, this will turn into fats and lead to cancer. It is best to drink hot soup or warm water after a meal.

A serious note about heart attacks People should know that not every heart attack symptom is going to be the left arm hurting. Be aware of intense pain in the jaw line. You may never have the first chest pain during the course of a heart attack. Nausea and intense sweating are also common symptoms. Sixty percent of people who have a heart attack while they are asleep do not wake up. Pain in the jaw can wake you from a sound sleep. Be careful and be aware. The more you know the better chance you could survive.

Because of the secrecy of KFC’s Original Recipe, nobody can honestly claim to know they can make this at home. But, I can get you extremely close. So close, few will be able to tell the difference between your recipe and that of the Colonels. This is the recipe that gets you closer than all the rest. Remember, one of the secrets Colonel Sanders had been his pressure fryer cooking method. This locks in juices and cooks the chicken in less time, keeping it moist and less greasy.

Ingredients

- 2 envelopes dry tomato soup mix (Lipton cup-o-soup works perfect)
- 2 envelopes Italian dressing mix
- 1 tablespoon paprika
- 2 teaspoons dried chervil (it’s a lot like parsley, but don’t try to substitute)
- 1 teaspoon seasoned salt
- 1 teaspoon instant chicken bouillon powder
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- 1 teaspoon tarragon
- 1/2 teaspoon sage
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 3 cups pancake mix, (Bisquick works well)
- 3 cups buttermilk (enough to soak the chicken)
- 4 cups oil (southerners love using lard but you may want to substitute)

Directions

1. Blend all of the dry ingredients for the coating in a blender.
2. Soak the chicken pieces in buttermilk for at least one hour in the refrigerator.
3. Remove chicken from buttermilk and roll in the chicken coating mixture above.
4. Let chicken sit at room temperature while waiting for the oil to get hot.
5. Use a pressure fryer if possible for the most authentic copy of the original KFC recipe. If that is not possible, use a cast iron skillet. Do not crowd the chicken when placing into the skillet.
6. Brown the chicken in the skillet on high heat. Then turn down the heat and cover the pan. Cook until the fried chicken is done, about 30 minutes.
7. During the last 5 or 10 minutes, uncover the pan and turn up the heat. This will crisp up the fried chicken. Be careful not to burn the chicken during this last step.
8. Remove the fried chicken and drain on paper towels. Serve hot.

If you’re not convinced that the recipe above tastes just like what you bought at a local KFC, try this alternate version. Between these two, you should either expect to save a fortune from buying the KFC brand, or launch your own copycat franchise.

Ingredients

- 2 eggs, beaten
- 1 1/2 cups milk
- 1 cup flour
- 3/4 cup fine bread crumbs
- 1 tsp. Knorr chicken bouillon
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 1/2 tsp. garlic powder (not salt)
- 1/4 tsp. onion powder (not salt)
- 1/2 tsp. paprika
- 1/3 tsp. Bell Seasoning
- 1 tbsp. freshly chopped parsley
- 2 large cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 tsp. soy sauce
- 2 tsp. black pepper
- 1 tbsp. Wondra flour
- 1/2 tsp. Monosodium Glutamate (optional)
- additional flour for separate pre-coating
- 5-6 cups Crisco cooking oil
- 1 frying chicken, cut in pieces

Directions

1. Pour the oil into the pressure fryer or deep pan suitable for frying, and then heat over medium heat to about 360 degrees.
2. In a small bowl beat the egg, milk, and soy sauce, then stir in 1/2 tsp. Knorr chicken bouillon (save the other 1/2.. Put the garlic cloves through a garlic press and add into the egg mixture. Add half of the parsley and 1 tbsp. Wondra flour. Stir well.
3. In a separate bowl, combine the 1 cup flour and the bread crumbs, and the remaining ingredients. Mix well with a fork.
4. Put about 1/2 cup additional flour in a separate small bowl. Use this to dip each chicken piece, prior to dipping in the milk and seasonings.
5. Roll each piece of chicken around until well covered, first in plain flour, then in milk mixture, then in flour/bread crumbs mixture.
6. Gently lower the chicken pieces into the hot oil and allow to become a golden color (add the bigger pieces first..

Note: A special pressure fryer is the only type of pressure cooker that you can fry in safely. Read your manufacturer’s instructions before frying in a pressure cooker. If you don’t have your instruction manual, then prepare this chicken in a deep fryer instead.
