Img source:  DateTricks.com Many relationships are like fairy-tales in the beginning. However, things can change and the fairy tale can become a cold, indifferent one with time. Of course, it’s not always like that and many partners are in love with each other their entire life (or most of it). The bottom line is it depends on both partners. If your relationship is not like it used to be, and you feel it’s falling apart, it doesn’t necessarily mean your partner is cheating on you. The reason for that change could be lack of communication, lack of trust, and indifference. Whatever the reason, you can always try something new to save your relationship. But, if you’ve found the man of your dreams and you want to keep it, you might want to do some of the following things. They will help you work on yourself to make sure he will never want to leave you. Also, they could help you improve your relationship even more. 9 Things to Do to Keep Your Man 1. Keep Your Cool Wh...

If you’re at home right now, take a moment to look around you. What do you see? Do you see a tidy home in which everything (well, practically everything!) is in its right place, or do you see total chaos and disorganization? If it’s the latter, don’t feel bad, it happens to the best of us every once and a while–but, if this is a very common occurrence in your life, there might be something more serious going on. A series of studies used in the writing of the book  Life at Home in the 21st Century: 32 Families Open Their Doors , show that people, especially women, living in cluttered homes experience heightened levels of stress hormones, the same kind that contributes to depression. This experience was outlined in psychiatrist  Dr. Audrey Sherman’s “Dysfunction Interrupted” column on PsychCentral . In it, Dr. Sherman reveals that she finds disorganization and the chaos that comes with it to be “the biggest problems to be reported by depressed in...

Dr. Songtao Shi from the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial research has conduct a study which discovered that baby teeth contain 1-2 dozen valuable stem cell, usable for treating different diseases further in life. Experts have been studying the effects of stem cells on heart, brain, pancreas and other organs in repairing possible damage from disease. The team of Dr. Shi discovered that adult teeth contain 1 type of stem cell, while baby teeth (from children aged 7 and 8) contain completely different stem cells. It was discovered that baby teeth can actually save life, just like the baby’s cord blood can. This means that, in case you cannot afford banking your baby’s cord blood for stem cells, or in case you have not thought about this on time, now you can do it by saving your child’s baby teeth. How does it work? he answer is very simple – you can find the stem cells inside the dental pulp placed in the tooth that recreates into the neurons, cartilage a...

On the other hand, if we want to obtain good results and make they bloom, we must know the habits of certain species of cactus. Christmas cactus needs only three things to grow and bloom: The light : This cactus likes the sun, but you will need to protect it a little bit. Direct sunlight could affect it and prevent it from blooming. A net curtain on the window will be enough to protect it from the sun. How often do you need to water a Christmas cactus : The Christmas cactus prefers dry soils, like most cacti. So, wait until the soil is dry and that it has slightly started to change color before watering the plant. How to fertilize a Christmas cactus : In the spring and fall, you can give it some fertilizer, but in a moderate way. Either by diluting the fertilizer in water, or with an organic fertilizer. If the cactus leaves soften, or turn yellow, or become brownish, it means that you water i...

Study shows that daughters of nagging moms may be more successful Good news, mothers of daughters! It looks like we may be able to use our daughters’ need to prove us wrong about everything to our advantage. A study from the University of Essex showed that girls who have mothers who “nag” them (a phrase we hate because a nag is a broken-down old horse and we are just trying to help, Goddammit) were more likely to go to college, get better-paying jobs, and avoid teen pregnancy than those with mothers who were more relaxed. The study looked at the lives of over 15,000 13 and 14-year-old teenage girls for six years. Results concluded that young ladies who had a main parent (usually the mother) that stayed on top of them about chores, school, and responsibilities were more likely to go to college and have high paying jobs. They were also less likely to become pregnant as teens. The “nagging” doesn’t necessarily come in the form that you think but has more to do with setting con...

All across the globe, people are jumping onto the trend of smaller “shoebox” living. Scaling back and and living a more sustainable lifestyle is made possible with compact, repurposed and/or off-the-grid living quarters. Following in the steps of the sustainable living movement, one housing developer purchased the Providence Arcade — a bankrupted and abandoned mall, which also happens to be the oldest mall in America. The now National Historic Landmark was built in 1828 and was the first indoor shopping mall in the United States. Developer Evan Granoff bought the Providence Arcade in 2005. By turning the upper-level retail spaces into micro apartments with businesses and the original sun-flooded atrium on the first level, Granoff believed he could restore the building to its former glory — and that’s exactly what he did. Even though the Arcade’s smallest apartments are just 225 square feet, all of the residents speak highly of their compact and sustainable li...
