IESLTS TESTS ADVICE

Chris Jim · June 17, 2017 CEO at Hustlr | Oxford | Engineer at Amazon, Ex-Facebook I am sitting for IELTS test this Saturday, what advice would you like to give? Take a good rest and Do NOT cram the night before. Here are some tips and advice from my own personal experience taking the IELTS test. Listening Section: Make sure for the listening section you pay attention to every detail of the conversation. Often it isn’t that you didn’t hear the conversation, it’s just that u aren’t focused. Reading Section: You will have a lot of time for this section generally speaking. Be sure to make the most out of it. If you are stuck on one question go to the next. And i’m sure you are troubled by the fact that not given/false are extremely similar. The truth is, it isn’t. Don’t interpret the passage. Rather, look for evidences as questions are always evidence-based. If u can’t figure out why the statement is right or wrong 90 percent of the time the answer is not given. Writing Sectio...

8 must read tips for trading Bitcoin and Altcoins

Image
YUVAL GOV   LAST UPDATED ON  JAN 11, 2018 Safety rules were written with blood. That statement sounds familiar to every soldier around. Although we are not dealing with a risk to human lives, losing your expensive Bitcoins by making mistakes trading is definitely not a fun situation. So, how we can avoid those mistakes in our trading? How to be mostly on the green side? First, it is important to note that to trade right requires attention and your one hundred percent focus. Secondly, trading is not for everyone. The following tips are easy to internalize because these tips were “written in blood” (my own blood). However, it’s still difficult to apply them in real-time. After all, we are not rational human beings. Have a reason before entering each trade: Start a trade only when you know why you’re starting and have a clear strategy for afterwards. Not all traders make gains from trading, since this is a zero-sum game (for everyone who benefits someone else loses o...

Get better GPS performance with these suggestions by  Crutchfield's    There are two basic types of in-car GPS navigation systems: in-dash and portable. This article will give you some tips on installation considerations for both systems, but focuses on the in-dash systems, since they are more involved. After reading this article, see our  Navigation Installation Guide  for detailed installation instructions. In-dash Navigation Systems In-dash navigation systems consist of 2 or 3 parts: a car stereo with a built-in screen, an external GPS antenna, and occasionally, a hideaway connection box that contains audio/video inputs and outputs.

Parking brake For safety reasons, any video screen in the front of the car must be attached to the parking brake wire. This applies to GPS systems too. Some of the more advanced navigation functions are dis...

GET SALTED: THE LATEST SKINCARE TREATMENT TO TRY

  Beauty insiders are buzzing about the rejuvenating benefits of salt therapy. By Emily Dudding Apr 28, 2015 Tom Schirmacher I lie completely naked under a plastic dome while a tiny machine pumps microscopic particles of pharmaceutical-grade salt into the air. I can't see it or smell it—it's only when I lick my hand and taste the salt film that I'm sure something is happening. It's my first time on a dry-salt bed, but I may be hooked. While nutritionists pepper us with dire warnings about the health risks of eating too much salt, salt aficionados of an entirely different breed are touting the little crystals as a cure for asthma and allergies, a boost to the immune system, and a way to increase athletic endurance and even to add a glow to your complexion. The secret? Skip the shaker in favor of inhaling the "Salt has incredible qualities," says Ulle Pukk, a cofounder of the  Salt Therapy Associatio...
