Advice On Finding Hunting Binoculars

If you are a hunter, you have to have binoculars. Though your eyes may be good and your aim may be wonderful, there are still times when these come in very handy. You may be able to see what is nearby, but wouldn’t it be great to see what might be coming your way long before it comes into the range of normal eye site? My father is a hunter, and he won’t go out into the woods without his hunting binoculars. Last year I bought him a new pair for Christmas because he had had the same pair forever, and he said he really appreciated the new and improved brand that we bought for him.

You can buy hunting binoculars in all types of strength. Some magnify only 20 times, and some go much higher. It depends on where you hunt and what type of game you usually are looking for while out. If you hunt in an area that has a lot of hills and deep forest, you might not need something that is very strong, however, that is up to you. If you hunt in wide open spaces, you definitely want something that is super strong so you can see as far as you need to see.

They also make hunting binoculars that have a feature to keep them steady. If you have ever tried to look at something that is a long ways away by looking through hunting binoculars, you know that things can be quite shaky no matter how steady you try to hold them. There are some that come with protection from this type of shaking. They aren’t perfect, but they can help you stay steady when you are searching far off into the distance.

You can find hunting binoculars in outdoor and sports stores, and you can also find them online. Though you can’t try them out online, you may find better prices that way. You could even go to a store and see what you like, and then see if you can find a better price online. A good set of hunting binoculars is going to be expensive, so taking some time to find the best brand for the best price is always a great idea. Just be sure to find a company that has a return policy if you order online just incase they arrive broken or you don’t get the model you ordered.

Frienda Advice

I Love Her, but She Just Wants to be Friends - any Advice?
Dear Becca:

I have been friends with this girl for about three years. We have become very close over that time. We hang out a lot, we have gotten physical in the past (no sex), but always kept it loose. We even 'sleep together' on occasion.

Here is my problem. I have fallen in love with her. She knows about it, and is not completely opposed to the idea of us dating. However, she doesn't want to lose me as a friend if we were to break up. She has in the past been in situations like ours and has lost good friends because of it. I really want to see what could happen with this relationship. I just have no idea what I should do, because in my heart I know I can't go back. Any ideas?

Sincerely, 'Confused'

********************

Dear Confused:

I have been trying to determine how old you are. You appear to have a good command of grammar. Given the clues in your letter, I am guessing that you are not a young teenager. My advice for someone who is thirteen years of age is different than it would be for an adult.

As human beings, we are very adaptable and can fall in love with more than one personality type. However, puppy love crushes aside, we usually know deep down when we are absolutely devoted to another person.

So, I have to ask you: are you really and truly, body and soul, in love with this girl? She appears to have some kind of affection for you at this point. That could change; but after three years, if love were to flower, there should be at least a blossom sprouting at this point.

Have you lavished gifts on her? Is she stringing you along because she doesn't want the gravy train to stop? Be honest.

How many good friends has she lost in the past? A couple of similar situations may be isolated instances. However, three or more unsuccessful affairs may be evidence of a trend. This girl may be shallow and incapable of a loving relationship right now. Or she may really have been hurt by someone in the past.

You need to sit down with her and discuss her past relationships in depth. Don't let love blind you. Before your discussion, write down or type out some questions. Try to anticipate what she might say and think of more questions - sort of like a computer flowchart. Spend some time with what you have written and try to commit it to memory (not word for word - just the general gist of everything).

The very act of flowcharting may give you some direction and open your mind to possibilities you hadn't previously considered.

If you and the girl cannot come to a meeting of the minds after your heart-to-heart discussion, it might be wise to seek out professional help.

Dating Advice From David Deangelo

Dating Advice From David Deangelo – What is the “Ewww Effect?”

There is this hideous little four letter word in the dating game that will instantly KILL any attraction a woman might have felt toward you. Do you know the word? I bet you do. It is “Ewww!” The “Ewww Effect”, as David Deangelo has so eloquently named it, is a total attraction killer, and to be avoided at all costs by every man out there, whether he is just circling the waters for a date, or has honed in on a target and is ready to move in for the kill!

But wait! Before you go any further, let me relay a story to you that David Deangelo tells in one of his newsletters (cited at end of article), because this is something that you have GOT TO KNOW before you go any further, today - this minute! So take 5 and read on… (And if this sounds familiar, don't worry, I have not named you!)

“Once upon a time, there was a man who was very attracted to a particular woman. At first, she was just another attractive woman... but the more he got to know her, the more he began to feel attracted to her... and the more time he spent with her, the more that attraction grew into a deep emotional attachment and affection for her.

But there was one problem. As his emotional attachment grew stronger and stronger, he also grew more and more insecure. Why? Because he couldn't tell whether or not she felt the same way towards him. Sometimes she would say things like "You are so important to me" and "I'm glad that you're in my life"... but nothing ever progressed past the "friendship" stage. There was an occasional hug, an occasional kiss on the cheek from her... and once she even held his hand for a long time while he talked about an emotional issue.

But something was wrong with the picture. She just wasn't acting like a woman that was "falling in love". She was acting like a friend. The insecurity that he felt became a spiral that amplified itself... and the more insecure he became, the more afraid he grew of "screwing things up" by kissing her or asking her to be his girlfriend. Plus, the more insecure he became, the less time she seemed to want to spend with him.

After spending many days and nights obsessing over this girl, the man finally arrived at the conclusion that if she only knew how HE FELT, that she would feel the same way. So he made a bold move. He TOLD HER how he was felt.

He confessed that he was in love, and that he would do anything to be with her. She looked at him with compassion in her eyes and said "Thank you... I really mean that... but I don't want to mess up our friendship... you're too important to me...”

This only confused the man more. He didn't know how to take it... Did it mean that she really loved him too, but that she was afraid of something? Did it mean that she wasn't ready for a long-term relationship? Did it mean that she didn't love him, but that she was trying to give him a hint? Did it mean that he hadn't tried hard enough? Did it mean that he needed to put everything on the line and REALLY let her know how he felt?

He finally decided that he couldn't go on like this anymore... he had to be with her. He had to make sure that she knew just how much he wanted to be with her... so he took a big step, bought her a symbolic gift, and wrote her a long, long letter... again confessing his feelings.

And then the unthinkable happened. She didn't reply. He called her three times a day for almost a week before reaching her. She made an excuse about being very busy, and said "I'll try to give you a call soon, I have to go"... and hung up...but he never got a call back. Over the following months, the man tried desperately to understand what went wrong... and what happened.”

What a nice, heartwarming story, huh? Sound familiar? I know, let me guess, you are not that desperate. But in one way or another, we have ALL been there. One time or another, the “Ewww! effect” has got us, and we got stuck in the friend zone, and then pushed out of the friend zone even because we wanted more.

Why does that happen? It is ALL about attraction, my friend, all about ATTRACTION. As David Deangelo says, the “Ewww effect is like hammering a railroad spike into the coffin of your relationship!” Why do men keep doing the things that cause the “Ewww effect” over and over? Because they don't GET IT!

Do you want to get it? I mean, really, do you WANT TO GET IT? (I'll give you a hint - SHE wants you to get it, that's for sure!)

The thing that most women know but most men don't is that there are certain traits that women are looking for in a guy. The surprising thing is that those traits don't have anything to do with whether or not you look like Brad Pitt or drive a Viper. Its all about the attraction and David Deangelo says it best when he says that “Attraction Isn't a Choice!” There are things a guy can do to up his attraction level to women by a HUGE amount, and David D tells you exactly what those steps are one by one.

Try this on for size - “if you think about it from HER perspective, you'll realize that the moment you do something to "confess", you have created a TURNING POINT in the relationship. Up until that point, you were harmless. I mean, women always know how men feel. She already knew you wanted her. She knew it from the beginning.

But now that you've started pursuing her and talking about how you feel, you've created a NEGATIVE TENSION that is VERY uncomfortable. You've triggered an emotion that is repulsive to women. And it does repel them. You can't "make a woman like you" or "change how she feels about you" by doing nice things for her...Doing "nice" things for a woman who isn't attracted to you HURTS you. It backfires. Worse, it creates the "Instant Ewww" feeling that makes it so she'll NEVER like you.

Men make this mistake over and over again in life because they're doing what MAKES SENSE to them. They're doing it because they don't have an understanding of ATTRACTION. I mean, if you have a friend, and you like them, and you want to make them like you more...and you do some nice things for them, they will probably like you more.

On the other hand...if you have a woman that you "like" in a romantic way and she doesn't "feel it" for you, and you do something nice for her because you want HER to like you more, it will BACKFIRE... and she will not only NOT like you more, she will most likely distance herself from you. Guys think that they need to communicate when they like a woman... as if that's part of the necessary process of getting a girl.

Advice to King Dave of the Isle of Man

To HM King David of the Isle of Mann (or Man), cousin to Queen Elizabeth II, come forth, I, your Not-So-Humble Servant to render such Wisdom as I can…

For about ten minutes today, David Howe, a 38 year old businessman from Maryland commanded the front page on FoxNews.Com with the story of his Coronation. In 2006 some Brit genealogist called to tell him that he might have a claim to the throne of the Isle of Mann (or Man). So, he filled out the right forms and sent them to Her Majesty's Stationary Office which after a 90 day review period approved his Royal application. Apparently they sent him a crown, a royal robe and a spoon. Some Kings get swords, others get scepters, but David gets a spoon.

My favorite part of the story is the reaction from the people of the Isle of Man, which I think can best be summed up as: "Who?" The elected government of the Isle of Man is probably still laughing themselves senseless. They are so disrespectful of their new King that the official government website has no mention of his coronation. Well King David, it looks like you'll need to stage an invasion to enforce Your Royal Rights. I recommend you look into some the old laws on how to execute traitors. That's how you get medieval on their butts.

The best part about this story is that HM (that's His Majesty, to you) King David has a lovely website. On his home page under an enormous picture of him, he details his efforts to provide aide for the poor AIDS afflicted children of Insert African Nation Here. Even Americans know you cannot be a Royal unless you have some charity to support. Especially useful are those charities that show you pictures of starving children. Those work best of all. Good choice there, Your Majesty. You hit that nail right on the head.

But if you do a little digging into the Royal website you find his Royal Pedigree. You know, like they do with dogs. Not only does he include his family tree proving his Royal Title, but he also proves that he is a cousin to the Royal Family of Great Britain. Wow, he's cousins with the Queen! Let's get something straight; I'm no genealogist but it seems to me when you cast such an enormous net (like the Cousin's Net), you are probably also related to Cher, Bill Clinton and Dick Cheney. I recommend that you lose the whole Cousins thing. Let's agree that you are only allowed to be a Royal Cousin if they invite you over for tea.

Also, if you take the time to look at his Pedigree you may notice that he has achieved his gentle rank through marriage. Now, that is perfectly legitimate. But, does that mean he's Royal by insertion? If so, then good job King David! I always heard you were supposed to pull your Sword out of the stone. It just goes to show that you cannot trust legends. But it might damage your macho image, so I would dump that webpage too.

Now, there's the matter of Royal Revenue. Until you conquer your island you can't collect taxes. But I have solved that for you! Just sell Knighthoods! There are tons of obnoxious idiots who would pay dearly for a title. I would add a web store and sell them that way. Between the money you can make from titles and the cash that will come in from your charity, you should have a pretty nice war chest.

To invade, you will need an army. And let's face it, no regular mercenary army will do. You need to show your subjects that you mean business and will not tolerate anything but total loyalty. For that mission, I can only recommend Blackwater. It might take up some of the money for the African kids, but you can always pay them back later.

Advice From The Kama Sutra

Sexual Positions to Aid in Conception - Advice From The Kama Sutra

The act of conception has been cloaked in mystery, it seems forever. However, the ancient Indian Rishis who studied all elements of our lives came up with some sexual positions and other techniques that promote conception and pregnancy.

Clearly outlined below, these sexual positions and techniques can be either followed (as an aid to conception), or avoided to prevent conception.

The Act of Conception

Clearly the delivery of a man's sperm into the woman's womb is the first condition to becoming pregnant.

However, the woman must be in or near her fertile days, the chemistry of her womb but be correct to facilitate the movement of the man's sperm, and her mental state has to be such, that the very cells of her body are ready to the conceptual event.

Any one of the three conditions out of balance with the other (available and healthy sperm, body chemistry and mental attitude), can prevent conception.

Addressing the Body Chemistry

The woman's body chemistry changes throughout her monthly cycle. Near, during and slightly after ovulation, her body chemistry inside the womb becomes less acidic and less hostile to the invading sperm.

In fact, as the man's ejaculation occurs, a special protective layer (a sort of shield) forms around the sperm, and it facilitates the sperm being able to navigate through the cervical mucus...now much thinner during the woman's fertile period.

The Woman's Mental State

Hardly understood, a woman's mental state determines her body's reaction to the invading sperm.

The sperm can be welcomed or unwelcomed (to use a metaphor), but in any case, if the sexual act places the woman in a relaxed and stressless condition, her uterine contractions (in response to the freshly deposited sperm) will actually propel the sperm quickly towards the fallopian tubes where awaits a fertile ovum (or egg).

Therefore, the man should discover how to relax and calm his partner, and how to help place her state of mind in a calm and relaxed condition.

The Best Sexual Position for Conception

Called by various names by the Indians in the Kama Sutra, by the Arabs in the Perfumed Garden, the sexual position that is most suited to aid conception is commonly known as the "riding high - missionary variant". Many ancients called it the Crab position.

Actually, it is technically known as the coital alignment position, and is a variant of the people in the West call the ‘missionary position' The Crab position however is not only suited to aid conception, but during the sexual act its employment will highly stimulate the clitoris, and often cause a massive clitoral orgasm.

As the sperm is ejaculated into the woman's womb, the orgasm and strong contraction will actually propel the sperm towards the fallopian tubes.

To do the Crab position, the man lies on top, but above the woman with her legs bent back at the knees, and pulled towards her breast. A small pillow (not too big) should also be placed under the woman's buttocks.

As the man penetrates her, he, glides forward along her body, with the root of his penis (that part closest to the body) stimulating the woman's clitoris.

No thrusting should occur, but the man and woman will alternately apply pressure to each other's pelvic regions A circular motion (often called ‘bump and grind') can also be applied, and in a short while the woman should arrive at a great and profound orgasm. The man should try to finish as near to that event as possible.

The couple staying in this position after ejaculation will also facilitate the sperm being pooled nearer towards its goal. The chances of becoming pregnant in this position (with the other conditions present), are very high.

Relationship Advice

Relationship Advice: Be Willing Have Your Partner be Upset With You

As a counselor, I often work with people who are unhappy in their relationship and thinking of leaving. They believe that they are unhappy because of their partner, but the real reason is that they are not taking responsibility for their own feelings within the relationship.

For example, when Lila started to work with me, she was convinced that it was her husband's lack of help around the house, his anger, and his unwillingness to communicate with her that was causing her unhappiness. Yet it soon because apparent to me that her unhappiness was being caused by giving herself and care-taking others to avoid conflict.

"Lila, you constantly give yourself up and do what others want you to do - not just with Seth, but with your children and with people at work. There must be a good reason that you do this, even though it is making you feel resentful and trapped. Why do you think you are doing this?"

"I just don't like to fight. I don't like conflict. I don't like arguing. I don't like for people to be upset with me.

"When people are angry or upset with you, what are you telling yourself that make this so hard for you?"

"I'm telling myself that I did something wrong or they wouldn't be upset."

"So you are taking responsibility for their feelings and behavior instead of your own. You are telling yourself that you are CAUSING their upset, rather than their upset coming from what they are telling themselves about your behavior. It sounds like you want to believe that you cause - and therefore control - their feelings and behavior, and you also want to believe that they are causing yours."

"If I don't do what they want and they get upset, aren't I causing their upset?"

"No. If you don't do what your husband wants and he gets upset, he might be telling himself something like, "Lila doesn't care about me." It is this thought that is upsetting him. But is this true? When you don't do what he wants, is it because you don't care about him?"

"No, not at all. Usually it is something that he can do for himself and I want to do something else with that time."

"So his upset is coming from what he is telling himself rather than from you having done something wrong. But he will continue to get angry and blame you as long as it works for him to get you to do what he wants. The way out of this dysfunctional system is for you to be willing to have him be angry with you. You might want to practice saying to yourself, 'I'm willing for others to be upset with me. I don't cause their upset. I haven't done anything wrong.' When you are willing for others to be upset with you and you know you are not the cause of their feelings, then you are free to take responsibility for your own feelings. You are free to be kind and loving to yourself and them, instead of giving yourself up and care-taking them."

As Lila became willing to have her husband - and others - be upset with her and willing to take responsibility for her own feelings rather than theirs, she found herself becoming happy. The more she took responsibility for her own feelings rather than for Seth's, the more loving she felt toward Seth.

I have found that taking responsibility for others' feelings rather than one's own is one of the key issues that cause relationships to fail. Learning how to take responsibility for your own feelings and wellbeing and not for others' feelings may heal your relationship!
