How to Avoid Getting Shot by the Police During a Traffic Stop

Whether or not a traffic stop is justified and regardless of what the officer or officers say regarding this, there are several things you could do that might save your life:

1. Comply with the officer's orders whether you like it or not.

2. Do not make any sudden moves and if you are instructed to raise you hands do so and keep them raised even if your nose itches or any other reason.

3. Do not automatically reach in your glove compartment.

4. If you have a gun or guns in the car tell the officer at the beginning. Phrase it in a way that is non-threatening. "Officer, I wanted to let you know that I have a gun in the glove compartment." Or, "Officer, I wanted to let you know I have a gun on the seat beside me."  Make sure you hands are in clear view at all times. 

5. Make sure any passengers in your car also do as you do. Coach them while you are pulling over at the beginning of the stop.

5. No matter what the officer says and even if they are taking you to jail for something you did not do, comply and do not resist. Spending a few hours in jail and paying a small bond is well worth living the rest of your life. Any false arrest or misunderstandings can be hashed out in court if necessary. Sometimes police catch their mistakes before the case goes to court and charges will be dropped. 

6. When given an order by an officer, if you did not understand it repeat what you heard and confirm what they are asking. 

7. Do not do anything during a traffic stop unless you are directly ordered to do so by the police.

How to Put on Perfume or Cologne

 There is almost nothing sadder than when someone spends $100.00 on a bottle of smell-good, only to ruin it by putting on too much. People around are robbed of the opportunity to appreciate your investment, to catch a slight, aromatic whiff of your bottled scent as you pass them in the supermarket or in a fancy restaurant, work, everywhere you go.  And if you continue to take a bath in your perfume or cologne you have for all intents and purposes wasted your $100.00, because no one can appreciate the overwhelming scent you carry, and you would be better appreciated with no perfume or cologne on at all.  Sometimes the scent of perfume or cologne is so overwhelming it immediately invades the nostrils of others, causing some to actually feel sick or get a headache.  The best way to apply perfume or cologne to your body is not to directly apply it at all. To apply perfume or cologne place yourself in a room with high ceilings if possible. If not possible still use this p...

How to Create a Natural Privacy Fence by Growing Bamboo

 Bamboo, one of the fastest growing plants in the world is misunderstood by many people when it comes to gardening. The main reason for this is because some people do not have enough knowledge about bamboo and the 1,000 species of the plant. You can successfully grow bamboo in your yard with only a little extra knowledge about the plant and caring for it. You can create a natural fence of bamboo along perimeters of your yard by doing the following: 1. Plant a version called "clumping." There are numerous clumping versions of bamboo. Just make sure you have purchased a clumping version because it forms a root ball, and the roots should not spread like evasive varieties of the plant. 2. Decide the approximate height you are seeking for your privacy fence. This is because you can control the height of the bamboo early on. If you wait too long, it may take lift equipment to reach the top of the bamboo. You can also control the depth of the bamboo on a regular basis, for example i...

How to Make Vanilla Bourbon Chicken

                                                           Photo: Herbscapes.com Yesterday a neighbor gave me a small jar of Madagascar Bourbon vanilla she has been curing for about six months. The vanilla beans stood in a brown liquid of vanilla and bourbon. For some reason I immediately thought of chicken. I will definitely infuse this liquid gold into some dessert creations, but I happened to have three chicken filets in the fridge ready to make their culinary debut. I rinsed the filets under cold water and placed in a plastic bag. It occurred to me that if I poured too much of the vanilla bourbon into the bag, it would be absorbed by the filets and overtake the flavor, knocking out the fresh German thyme I planned to top on the cooked meal. In plain English: it would be too strong. I carefully dripped about an eighth of a teaspoon into...
