But there are some steps you should take to extend the life and shine of your wine glasses if you wash them in the dishwasher. Likewise, if you have to wash them by hand, there are some tools and tips you can use to make them sparkle with minimal risk of breaking.

Dishwasher detergent: Whatever you have on hand is probably fine. If you really care about the lifespan of your glassware, get something that allows you to control the dose, such as a powder detergent (not tablets or gel packs), since too much detergent can etch the glass over time.

Expect it to take however long the wash cycle is on your dishwasher (usually two to three hours), plus a few minutes per glass to polish. Plan for five to 10 minutes per glass to wash and polish by hand.

Never polish your glass by holding the base in one hand and twisting the polishing cloth around the rim of the bowl at the top; this could torque and snap thinner stems. Instead, hold your glass gently by the bowl. Check out this Riedel video to view the proper polishing technique.

Whipping your glasses off with one hand might seem like a stylish shortcut, but this is one of the worst habits when it comes to handling them. Repeatedly taking them off squint (usually with the same hand) causes the frame to become slack, wider and often crooked. If your glasses' temples (arms) open to different angles, they've likely been stretched out of shape from using one hand to put them on or take them off. If this

New habit: When you remove your glasses, always do it with consideration, using two hands. Holding each temple (arm) in each hand, slide them off evenly. This prevents straining the hinges and keeps your frame symmetrical. Inversely, the same rule applies when you put them on.

Not always your fault: Thin acetate frames are more likely to warp as the material is more susceptible to temperature change or prescription lens curvature. In terms of preventative measures, thin acetate frames should also be stored correctly when not in use; ideally in their protective case. It's important to ensure that thin acetate glasses frames are handled with care and stored properly when not being worn to extend their lifespan and keep them straighter for longer.

To fix misaligned hinges open your glasses fully. Grab hold of your frame front and the temple you'd like to adjust. With one hand on the frame front and the other on the temple, gently lever the temple in the direction which will make it sit level. (This may be upwards or downwards.) Be sure to be gentle and make minor adjustments as only a few degrees will make all the difference. *Avoid bending too far as this will damage your hinges. If you're unsure, ask for advice or take your glasses to a professional.*

How to fix it: Decide which temple is straightest and needs curving. Use warm water (50°C) or a hair dryer to gently heat the temple for about 60 seconds whilst avoiding your lenses. Holding the heated temple only, use your hands to curve the temple inwards so it matches the other. To compare temples to make sure they're even, open your frame, lay it on a table and check it from above. You can of course apply this method to both temples if required.

When attempting any kind of adjustment on a pair of spectacles it is important to consider all possible risks before doing so. In most cases, it's usually better for an optician or repairs service with expertise in this area to handle any necessary repairs and adjustments. They'll know how best to handle each situation without causing further problems.

Your glasses may look crooked due to incorrect handling or storage of frames, as well as natural warpage. The best way to fix this problem is to have them adjusted professionally so that they fit snugly on your face and are symmetrical.

The size of a briefcase is linked to perceptions of the status of its owner. Those who carry large, bulging briefcases are thought to do all the work and probably take work home because they are poor time managers. Slim briefcases say that the owner is only concerned with the bottom line and therefore has more status. Always carry a briefcase to one side, preferably in your left hand, which allows you to shake hands smoothly with your right hand without fumbling. If you're a woman, avoid carrying a briefcase and handbag at the same time - you will be perceived as less businesslike and more disorganized. And never use a briefcase as a barrier between you and another person.

When women smoke they will often hold the cigarette high with their wrist bent back in a wrist display gesture, leaving the front of the body open. When men smoke they keep their wrist straight to avoid looking effeminate and drop their smoking hand down below chest level after they puff, keeping the front of the body protected at all times.

Films and media advertising have generally in the past portrayed smoking as sexy. Smoking is another opportunity to emphasize our sex differences: it allows a woman to use wrist displays (discussed in a subsequent section) and open her body to a man and it allows the cigarette to be used like a small phallus being seductively sucked between her lips. A man can highlight his masculinity by holding the cigarette secretively and seductively. Previous generations used a seductive smoking ritual as an acceptable form of courtship with a man offering to light a woman's cigarette while she touched his hand and held his gaze longer than usual as she thanked him. In many places today, however, smoking is considered declasse or in general decline due to restrictive regulations so the smoking courtship ritual is virtually dead. The key to the perceived female sexual attraction behind smoking is the submissive attitude it implies; in other words, it carries the subtle message that a woman who smokes can be persuaded to do things that are not in her best interests. While blowing smoke in a person's face is unacceptable everywhere, in Syria it's seen as a sexual invitation when a man does it to a woman!How to Spot a Positive or Negative DecisionWhether a person has a positive or negative attitude towards his circumstances is revealed by the direction in which his smoke is exhaled, whether it's up or down. We are assuming here that the smoker is not blowing the smoke upwards to avoid offending others and that he could have blown the smoke in either direction. A person who is feeling positive superior or confident about what he sees or hears will blow the smoke in an upward direction most of the time. Conversely, a person in a negative, secretive or suspicious frame of mind will blow the smoke down most of the time. Blowing down and from the corner of the mouth indicates an even more negative or secretive attitude.

In films, the leader of a motorcycle gang or criminal syndicate is usually portrayed as a tough, aggressive man who, as he smokes, tilts his head back sharply and with controlled precision blows the smoke towards the ceiling to demonstrate his superiority to the rest of the gang. In contrast, Humphrey Bogart was often cast as a gangster or tough guy who held his cigarette inverted in his hand and blew the smoke down from the corner of his mouth as he planned a jailbreak or other devious activity. There also appears to be a relationship between how positive or negative the person feels and the speed at which he exhales the smoke. The faster the smoke is blown upwards the more superior or confident; the faster it is blown down, the more negative he feels.

If a smoker is playing cards and is dealt a good hand, he is likely to blow the smoke upwards, whereas a poor hand may cause him to blow it downwards. While some card players use a 'poker face' when playing cards as a way of not showing any body signals that may give them away, other players like to be actors and use misleading body language to lull the other players into a false sense of security. If, for example, a poker player was dealt four of a kind and he wanted to bluff the other players, he could throw the cards face down on the table in disgust, curse, cross his arms and put on a non-verbal display indicating he'd been dealt a poor hand. But then he quietly sits back and draws on his cigarette and blows the smoke upwards. And then he Steeples. It would be unwise for the other players to now bet on the next hand, as they would probably be beaten. Observation of smoking gestures in selling situations shows that when smokers are asked to buy, those who have already reached a positive decision blow the smoke upwards, whereas those who have decided not to buy, blow downwards.

Regardless of what type of object or thing we choose to handle, wear or smoke, there are special signals and rituals we display without awareness. The more of these objects we use, the more we signal our intentions or emotions. Learning how to read these signals gives you a second set of body language cues to observe.

Another way to explain this is to consider the video camera. Video cameras have motion stabilizing equipment built into them. This equipment stabilizes the visual world in order to capture a clear visual scene even though natural motions of the hand holding the video camera would otherwise blur the image. Patients with vestibular disorders experience vision problems because of a deficient VOR causing the eyes to move during head motion when they should instead be still.

Without proper computer set-up and use, there are many injuries that may result. Tendonitis is the most common problem, involving tendon inflammation and localized pain in the elbow, forearm, wrist or hand. Bad posture can cause fatigue, muscle strain, and, in later stages, pain. Back pain, one of the most common complaints of older men and women, is usually the result of years of faulty posture. In addition, poor posture can affect the position and function of your vital organs, particularly those in the abdominal region. Stand up straight to promote health and good appearance. You will exude confidence and dignity as you hold your back up straight using abdomen and back muscles. 2b1af7f3a8
