Watching the kids ski down the little hill for the first time in their colorful parkas and giant goggles is as great a spectator sport as the terrain park. It's one of the coolest things to see at Alpine!
We have 3 ski school programs that teach kids as young as 3 years old to expert adults. The youngest kids get introduced to skiing in a comfortable warm environment. When they're old enough for the snow they take their first runs in the arms of one of our expert instructors. From there they move on to the the bigger practice hill and the Meadow lift where they can get safely work up to longer runs and steeper terrain while having a great time.
There's no terror of loading and riding the chairlift, and no back-breaking hike up the run with your kid in your arms. We have two moving carpet surface lifts that make getting up the hill for beginners easy, fun and fast. This year we've added a 200 foot SunKid conveyor to open up that much more terrain for beginning skiers and boarders.
Call (530) 581-8200 for info and reservations or reserve your lesson through the Alpine Meadows online store.

Elephants Abroad: A Dispersed Collection
I confess, I have a serious crush on elephants. It all started with a vintage pink cast iron elephant bank that I found over 10 years ago. As my collection grew, I began dispersing them throughout my home and workspace. You can find them mixed in with the dishes…
…hanging out on the coffee table, playing in the nursery and resting on my desk. I'm not sure how many is too much or if there is such a thing, but at this point I can't help but take them home when they cross my path. They bring me serious joy — but that's the point of a collection, right?
Just in case you too may be elephantine in your collection habits, make sure the trunk is "up" to bring you lots of luck! Happy collecting!

proud fellow member of the elephant crushers
have you seen the notebooks you can get made of elephant dung? *I'm serious!*
I love the elephant towels in the picture. Does anyone know where they came from?
WHERE did you find the little crocheted elephant on the swing? He made me laugh.
@83eggs I don't know where they got that one, but you could probably find a similar one on Etsy.
I'm in the elephant crush group, too. I have this adorable ring holder by my sink http://gifts.redenvelope.com/jewelry/baby-elephant-ring-holder-21320044?viewpos=1&trackingpgroup=productsearch
It's one of those things where I would buy all the adorable ones I see, but I don't want to turn into that girl w/ the elephants nor do I want others to know about my "crush" and then start buying me them for every birthday & holiday! (You know how that goes!)
I have to own up to my collection, as well; there's not a room in my apartment sans pachyderm.
I have almost exactly the same thing- except my collection isn't elephants, it's dachshunds. Any shape, size, colour- I have them made out of cloth, china and even a dachshund hand bag.
All I need now is the real thing!
hi all!
The elephant on the swing is actually part of a mobile in my son's room...
The sweet elephant towel was a gift that a friend made for me...I think the fabric was ordered on etsy:)
AH I love elephants. My mom collects them and has more than 150 from all over the world!
Another elephant crusher here--elephant bookends, elephant oil burner, elephant evil eye, teapot, lamp, stuffed and in soapstone. They haven't infiltrated the kitchen yet, but give them time. And I received a small herd of elephants from family and friends for my birthday this year!

The country is changing, with one-third of the population representing a historical "minority." In this increasingly diverse world, you can confidently say your workplace actively fosters diversity, inclusiveness, and cooperation. For these reasons and others, you're proud to be a part of it—and we want to hear from you.
Minority Nurse is looking for nominations for health care's diversity MVPs, from the magnet hospitals to nursing schools to local hospice care centers. Nurses can nominate their workplaces based on the facility's efforts to improve and maintain inclusiveness and diversity.

When hiring groups devoted to minority recruitment and retention not only exist, but are consistently used, it shows a commitment to diversity. When hospital administrators take the time to include their nursing staff in development, they exhibit a commitment to diversity. And you, in taking the time to recognize your workplace for its commendable practices and diverse work environment, are showing a commitment to diversity as well.
It's not necessarily a numbers game—we don't require applicants to produce statistics or quotas, though you are welcome to do so if you wish. We're simply looking for readers who take pride in their workplaces' commitment to diversity.

It's a year when the event received a significant boost — being linked as curator of the new Sundance Kids program at January's Sundance Film Festival.
Because of that Sundance link, and the global attention that comes with it, the stakes have been raised for Tumbleweeds.
"With the exposure of Sundance Kids, to help heighten awareness of what we're doing in the community and the importance of film and growing film lovers, I think we're going to see a really good festival this year," said Holly Yocom, executive director of the Utah Film Center, which presents Tumbleweeds.
"There's definitely more pressure than there's been in the past," Yocom said. "The film world, as well as just our community — more people are paying attention to what we're doing."
Tumbleweeds is bringing back the two movies that debuted at Sundance Kids: the Spanish adventure "Zip & Zap and the Marble Gang" and the Oscar-nominated French-Belgian cartoon "Ernest & Celestine" (which will be screened in the original French voices and the English-language dub).
"Not everyone got to experience those films [at Sundance], so we're hoping the word-of-mouth from everyone who did see them will continue to travel and more people will get to see those films," Yocom said.
Five of the movies on the slate come from German-speaking countries: three from Germany, one from Austria and one German/Swiss co-production.
"Obviously, there is an audience there [in Germany]," said Xavier Koller, the Swiss-born director of the German/Swiss film "The Black Brothers."
"The Black Brothers," adapted from a beloved children's book in Europe, tells of boys in a poor Swiss region in the 19th century. These boys were sold into indentured servitude in Milan, forced to work as chimney sweeps. The movie tells of these boys banding together to confront their slave trafficker (played by the German actor Moritz Bleibtreu, who appeared in "World War Z" and "The Fifth Estate").
Telling a story aimed at a younger audience can be challenging, said Koller, whose 1990 adventure "Journey of Hope" won the Oscar for foreign-language film.
"It has to work emotionally," Koller said. "Any story you tell for children, [you must] focus on them and take them seriously, listen to them and get them involved."
A young audience "will connect to the actors who represent them in the story" more readily than an adult audience," Koller said.
Other German-language films the Tumbleweeds programmers are excited about showing are the fantasy adventure "The Little Ghost" and the coming-of-age drama "Windstorm," about a girl and her horse.
Making youth films for an international audience is different than making one for American viewers, Koller said.
"In American movies, there's much more violence in there than in this movie," Koller said. "Because ['The Black Brothers'] is a more realistic story, it might be emotionally more draining than 'Star Wars' or any of these [films]."
Yocom has found Tumbleweeds audiences sometimes have reacted to the content in foreign films that international audiences let slide.
"There's one swear word in 'Zip & Zap,'" Yocom said, adding that a few parents were upset by that. "Do you know what I hear on TV every night? I watch 'Glee' and … I think, 'When did these swear words become OK for TV?' "
Because of such sensitivities, the festival programs films for a range of ages — from all-ages screenings to movies aimed at kids 12 and older.
Another obstacle for American audiences is the language barrier — but that's one Tumbleweeds has overcome quite creatively.Next Page >

What is it like to die?
What is it like to die? - going to an eternal sleep or spending a temporarily dreamless night?
"Now, if the death is only a dreamless sleep, it must be a marvellous gain. I suppose that if anyone were told to pick out a night on which he slept so soundly as not even to dream, and then to compare with all the other nights and days of his life, and then were told to say, after due consideration, how many better and happier days ad nights than this he had spent in the course of his life - well, I think that ... (anyone) would find these days and nights easy to counts in comparison with the rest. But death is like this, the, I call it gain, because the whole of time, if you look at it in this way, can be regarded as no more than one single night." - Plato, The last day of Socrates.
This remind me Hamlet's monologue
"..................................To die, to sleep;
To sleep: perchance to dream: ay, there's the rub;
For in that sleep of death what dreams may come
When we have shuffled off this mortal coil,
Must give us pause..."
being alive means not having first hand experience with death and its process.
but makes us to think if the world ended now would we be happy how you lived our life, would we done justice or would we just let it pass us by.
and finally would we be ready to face the death.

Nov 5 2012: Edwin - all memories precious, sad or joyous. English expression 'all part of life's rich tapestry'. In the case of Steve Jobs he had possibly, at the time of his statement, knowledge that he had a life-limiting illness. Do like ancient greek texts and fables. Like to read about Herodotus, simply reporting back what he heard, a kind of early social historian and sometimes called 'the father of liars'. People often only seem to have a capacity to hear what their own lived experience has exposed them to. Personal observational experiment at the moment, self and environment. Go and chat to someone, notice number of times conversation fluent and also observe body language, go away and think about it, think about own lived experience, note to self and revise. Hours of fun for me plus social interaction. Essence, self awareness. Results in progress. Do like the idea of emoticons. Still need a shared vocabulary at times. And as you pointed out, who knows anyway !

First Nations elder brought to tears by school mural
CBC News
While she was growing up, Pic River First Nation resident Diane Michano-Richmond could not understand why her parents did not speak their language.
It was only later in life that she discovered the impacts of the Indian residential school system.
"I didn't know anything about my culture," the First Nations elder said. "But I started learning ceremony way back in 1980, and I started fasting in the Sun Dance and that's where I got all my teachings from."
Students at the Marathon high school have been learning about issues such as the Indian Act, Indian agents, and residential schools as part of an English course to better understand the some of the recurring themes in stories written by Aboriginal authors.
It was the students who then suggested creating a mural once they learned more about Indian residential school.
"When I saw the mural, I cried," Michano-Richmond said.Michano-Richmond was asked to do the opening prayer at the unveiling of the mural and perform a traditional song and drumming.

National parks brace for service cuts
'Sequestration' could mean shorter seasons and fewer campgrounds and other visitor facilities. Here's what the major national parks have planned if their budgets are slashed.
This post comes from MSN Money contributor Tanya Mohn.
Travelers hoping to enjoy the splendor of the great outdoors this spring and summer should be prepared for cutbacks at the nation's 398 National Park Service sites.
The cutbacks would result from the looming sequester -- automatic spending cuts that will take effect Friday if Congress can't agree on a plan to address the national debt. If this happens, the National Park Service would be cut by more than $110 million, according to estimates, which would affect every park in the system.
"A one-time cut of this magnitude is more damaging than any the Park Service has ever faced, at least in recent history," said John Garder of the National Parks Conservation Association. "The mindless across-the-board cuts are so bad, they should never be allowed to happen."
The proposed 5.1% cut is especially worrisome, Garder said, because it would be on top of reduced funding that has occurred in recent years, and many parks already lack the resources necessary to operate.
Char Miller, a professor and director of the environmental analysis program at Pomona College, said the parks have "already been cut to the bone."
"The significant cutbacks will be felt by visitors to any national park, and will be visible from maintenance on trails and visitor services to the presence of park rangers," he said.
The Coalition of National Park Service Retirees has posted a detailed list of how sequestration-related cuts are expected to be implemented. The information is based on internal National Park Service memos and other sources, said spokeswoman Joan Anzelmo.
Among them:
- Yellowstone National Park will delay spring road openings in the park and to the west, south, east and northeast entrances. "Savings would come from a combination of reduced or delayed seasonal hiring, extended unpaid furloughs for employees, and reduced operating expenses including fuel, equipment and maintenance," the coalition says.
- Grand Canyon National Park will delay opening the East and West Rim drives and reduce hours of operation at the main visitor center.
- Yosemite National Park will delay the opening of the Tioga and Glacier Point roads by up to four weeks.
- Glacier National Park will delay opening the Going-to-the-Sun Road by two weeks. It's the only road across the park.
- In Grand Teton National Park, the Jenny Lake Visitor Center, the Laurence S. Rockefeller Preserve and the Flagg Ranch Visitor Contact Station will remain closed for the summer.
- Great Smoky Mountains National Park will close five campgrounds and picnic areas.
- Cape Cod National Seashore will close the Province Lands Visitor Center for the season. Also, access to large sections of the Great Beach will be reduced.
- Along the Natchez Trace Parkway, 25 comfort stations will be closed one day each week.
- Mount Rainier National Park will close the Ohanapecosh Visitor Center.
- Denali National Park will postpone the opening of the Eielson Visitor Center.
If you're flying to a city near your national park of choice, sequestration could affect that experience too.
"These across-the-board cuts may punish travelers with flight delays, long security lines at Transportation Security Agency checkpoints and multi-hour waits to clear Customs and Border Protection," Roger Dow, the president and chief executive of the U.S. Travel Association, said in a statement.
Park advocates say that not only the parks will suffer if Congress does not act in time. Communities and businesses that rely on park tourism would also be hurt if visitors, including international tourists, decide to go somewhere else.
"Our national parks generate $31 billion from tourism and recreation alone. Every dollar invested yields $10 of economic activity," said Garder, who recommends that people contact their members of Congress to ensure that national parks "don't fall through the cracks."
"If they do, long term it will ultimately damage the locations and the ability for families and others to visit these inspiring destinations, and the countless local economies that depend on them," he said.
A recent poll conducted by the association and the National Park Hospitality Association found that nine out of 10 Americans do not want additional cuts made to already strapped national park budgets. "National parks are widely supported across the political spectrum," Garder said.
Do you have a vacation planned to a national park this spring or summer? Have the looming budget cuts caused you to re-evaluate your plans?

Gerard begins to feel the effects of his illness.
I walk back into Gerard's room, he's crying again and I can clearly hear his ragged, panicked breathing, which is occasionally interrupted by a terrified whimper.
"Oh, Gerard..." I sigh as I put a hand on his shoulder. He flinches slightly at the touch but does not pull away, so I pull him into a tight hug.
We stay like this for a long time, his face pressed against my now tear soaked t-shirt and my arms wrapped firmly around his shaking body.
"Shh, you're gonna be okay, I promise." I murmur, even though I know I can't promise anything. I don't think he's going to say anything for a while, then he says quietly.
"Only if you stay with me, Frank."
"I'll never leave you." I whisper back, before kissing his greasy hair.
This seems to calm him down a little and we stay like this until he, exhausted, falls asleep against my chest. I stay with Gerard all night, I expect someone to come in and tell me I can't stay all night, but no one comes. Except a guy called Doctor Grant. He comes into the room around midnight and replaces the bag of liquid on Gerard's IV stand, with another bag of liquid, saying it's the first stage of his treatment. Eventually I go to sleep, still in my chair, my head resting on the side of Gerard's bed, it's an extremely uncomfortable
position, but I'm to tired to care.
I'm woken when light filters through the thin hospital curtains, Gerard is still asleep. I still haven't forgotten about Mikey, I do wonder who he is; I guess I'll just ask Gerard, but not now. I have important things to think about. Like telling the police. Although I have been reluctant to say anything to the police before, I'm starting to change my mind.
Gerard has a life threatening illness, and the thought of the people who did this to him just sitting somewhere getting away with it makes my blood boil, mind, this might not be the best time, the stress of a police investigation might make his illness worse. But then I can't let them get away with it... I figure I'll just ask Gerard, if he says no, that's it, we won't do anything else about it, at least not until he's got better. "But what if he doesn't get better?" Says the voice in my head before I can stop it. No. He will get better. He has to get better.
My internal debate is cut short when Doctor winters walks in. "Have you been here all night?" She asks me.
"Yeah.." I reply.
"Hmmm, visitors aren't actually allowed to stay overnight."
"I'm sorry, I just couldn't bear to leave Gerard alone when he was so scared."
"Well since it's his first night I'm prepared to let it slip." She says, giving me a small, knowing smile. Speaking of Gerard, the man has begun stirring awake.
"Hey, sleepyhead." I greet him, only realising after I've said it, what a dumb nickname it is.
"It hurts." he mumbles, then closes his eyes again, frowning in pain.
"What's wrong? Where does it hurt?" I ask him hurriedly. Gerard swallows, opens his eyes, blinks heavily, and then looks up at me.
"Stomach.." He says, and then gasps in pain. I see his body curl up into a ball under the covers.
"Yes, you will experience stomach pains. I'll give you some pain killers." Says Doctor Winters. I'd almost forgotten she was there. Doctor Winters does give him pain killers, and she stays in Gerard's room for a long time, explaining to us about his illness and the medication, which he could have to take for up to a year. It seems like she's done telling us about the illness, but she has one more thing to say.
"Now Gerard," She starts off, "I'm going to have to tell the police about what happened to you, but I have to check that you're okay with it first."
"Police? Why?" Gerard asks, he looks confused, bless him.
"Well, someone's made you very ill," I say, choosing my words carefully. "We can't just let them get away with it."
"No, you're right, we can't." He says.
"So, do I have you're permission?" Asks Doctor Winters.
"Yes," He says, but something seems to still be bothering him. "But, will they like, want to ask me questions?" He asks. Doctor Winters sighs.
"Yes, someone will want to ask you questions. I will tell them that a stressful police investigation could heed your recovery, so it will only be one person talking to you. If you want them to leave at anytime you just tell me." Thankfully, Gerard seems reassured by this.
"Okay." He says.
"Great." says Doctor Winters, then she smiles at us both, before leaving. Gerard stays at the hospital for the next couple of days, he's quite thin already, but he refuses to eat, claiming he's lost his appetite. I go home at nighttime to sleep but apart from that I spend most of my time with Gerard at the hospital.
A lot of the time he's asleep, and when he is awake, he's either suffering from his stomach aches, throwing up, (yet another symptom of Hepatitis C) or he's delirious from painkillers.
One day when Gerard is actually awake, not in too much pain and aware of everything that's going on around him. I'm sitting in my chair next to his bed, while he bites and chews on his nails. "I'm bored." Gerard announces.
"Well what you wanna do?" I ask.
"I wanna draw something... I used to be an artist, y'know, before..."
He trails off.
"Wow, you were an artist?" I can't help but sound a more than little
"Yeah" He says, looking down at his hands, face reddening. I decide I
have to see some of Gerard's art work, how though?
"Well then, in that case I have an idea." I say mysteriously, getting up.
"Where are you going?" He asks, frowning up at me.
"Just out, I'll be back in an hour or two." I say, as I put my jacket on, then kiss his flushed cheek, and step out the door. I don't know why I kissed his cheek, it just seemed really right at that moment. I shrug as I get in to my car.
When I get to the art store, it's almost deserted on this... Fuck. I don't even know what day it is. I look through the isles until I find what I'm looking for; a sketchpad and a pack of pencils. Perfect.
I go to the till to make my purchase. The young man at the till has sandy blonde hair and tanned skin. "That'll be twenty-two pounds fifty please." He says. Fuck, that's expensive, I sigh, I should probably get a job, and the money I inherited off my granddad won't last forever.
"Thank you." says the clerk as I take my bag of items. He was so checking me out, I think to myself as I walk away and out of the store. He was kind of cute, I could go back there, get his number... Nah, he wasn't that cute. And besides, I have to get back to Gerard; he'll be wondering where I've got to.
When I get back to the hospital I find Gerard in the same place that I left him.
"Frank!" He says as I walk into the room, a smile playing on his lips
"Hey.. Oh look Gerard, there's pee in your pee bag!" I observe merrily while pointing at the bag attached to the side of Gerard's bed, before dissolving into fits of giggles. Oh god, I can be such a child sometimes. I'm red in the face from laughing when I sit down beside Gerard
"Fraaa-aank!" He whines, face in hands, although I can see he's holding back a laugh. He tries smacking me playfully on the arm, but he's so weak it might as well have been a butterfly flying into me.
When we both calm down, Gerard leans back against his bed with a tired smile on his face. "I needed that." he says.
"Yeah, me too." I say, because really, I can't remember the last time
I laughed like that. "Oh! Yeah, I have something for you." I almost forgot.
"What is it?" He asks, looking at me with his big hazel eyes. I pull the sketchpad and pencils out of the bag.
"Just because, I know you're an artist, and you must be bored in
here.. So yeah..." He stares at the sketchpad, his mouth making an 'O'
shape. Then it turns into a wide grin.
"Thank you so much Frank! It's perfect I love it!" He beams, before hugging me tightly, and then inspecting his new sketchpad gleefully.

text: Comment: I am a beginning rider and I am very pleased with this helmet. I purchased the silver Trial By Fire helmet in a medium based on the size chart given here at Jafrum.com. It is a perfect fit, and the features are unbeatable at this price. I specifically like the quick release chin strap. It makes it easy to use with or without gloves on. I may pick up another one in one of the other colors! Great helmet with great features!!

Family squabbles have a way of turning ugly in a matter of seconds, and yet can be weirdly comical to a bystander. Relatives know too much about each other and have too wide a range of weaponry to choose from. When a burned dinner from ten years before can suddenly surface as a major accusation, it's safe to say that all bets are off and we enter the realm of the absurd.
"Everybody in Our Family," a new film by Romanian director Radu Jude, is a violent, funny and disconcerting vision of a familial argument turned into actual slugfest. What makes the movie compelling is that even though the characters act in extreme ways, the whole thing doesn't seem exaggerated in the least.
Marius (Serban Pavlu), a thirty-something divorced dentist, plans to take his small daughter Sofia (Sofia Nicolaescu) to the seaside. The girl lives with Marius' ex-wife Otilia (Mihaela Sirbu) and her new partner Aurel (Gabriel Spahiu). When Marius arrives and announces it's time for the long-planned camping trip, his former mother-in-law, Coca (Tamara Buciuceanu-Botez), informs him that the girl was sick just the day before and that the trip may be not such a great idea. Aurel seconds her, even though Sofia seems fine. Marius doesn't take no for an answer, and since his ex-wife is still at the beautician's, he decides to simply take his daughter and leave. A fight with Aurel ensues and once Otilia joins the party, things get really nasty.
Even though the elderly Coca tries to placate him, Marius goes off his rocker in a spectacular fashion. He bangs Aurel over the head with a frying pan, gags him and ties him up — just for starters. The film turns into an epic fulfillment of every Ralph Kramden-like threat of what will happen "one of these days" if a man is pushed to his limit. Old wounds are opened and no can of worms is left untouched. By the time Marius and Otilia are exchanging startlingly vulgar barbs (all the more jarring in mouths of folks priding themselves on their education), there is a delirious feeling in the air. We laugh — mainly because there's barely any malice in the picture, just a gargantuan failure of communication.
Movies that tackle explosive conflicts set in confined spaces usually originate as stage plays and can be burdened by glib wordiness. Even such pressure-cooker classics like "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" (or the more recent "Carnage") ultimately feel like elegant contraptions for actors to exercise their chops. "Everybody in Our Family," on the other hand, is much more raw: the dialogue is seemingly messy and unpredictable, editing is choppy, and the whole situation feels as banal, silly and horrifying as only an actual altercation can be.
What makes the movie work is the consistent, comical self-pity of Marius, who at one point even professes mad love for Otilia and says they should get back together again. It's a great moment for the actress Mihaela Sirbu, who manages to convey that tiny glimmer of amusement still dancing inside her, letting us know that Marius and Otilia were probably a great couple long ago. In this moment, the film plays almost like a kitchen-sink version of "His Girl Friday," with madcap Marius trying to save Otilia from a lifetime of boredom with Aurel the fuddy-duddy. He even quotes poetry to her and her expression makes it clear that no one has done it in a long, long time.
Not as extreme as Cristi Puiu's "Aurora," which waited about two hours before allowing the events to coalesce into some sort of a plot, Jude's film nevertheless takes its time setting up its centerpiece. The first half is constructed almost entirely of small non-events, which is in accordance with the recent trend in New Romanian Cinema, of which Puiu is the patron saint — a fascinating and much-awarded string of films that redefine screen realism in their dedication to process, duration and detail.
The last shot of the movie is great in an unobtrusive way that made me think of the closing scene of one of my favorite films of recent years, "The Kid with a Bike." The main character, bleeding and shaken — but already going back to old habits, as indicated by the cigarette he lights up — simply walks away from the camera and down a busy street. We've witnessed the violent turmoil he experienced (and caused), but we're forced to let go of him just as his nerves start to settle down. What Jude suggests is that Marius is a volatile man of passion who would better fit into another period in history. Had he lived in medieval times, he would be that guy who burns down three villages to get a girl's attention, or starts a war over a misplaced token of affection. Jude doesn't make us admire him, but he leaves us no choice but to acknowledge how much life there is in the guy.

Don't Let Any Woman Test You
But then, out of left field, she tosses you a hand grenade: she accuses you of having an affair with the new girl at work. A girl you've exchanged maybe ten words with.
After you finish picking your jaw up off the floor, you deny her accusation, but she's pouty, sullen. "I can't believe you're destroying our relationship," she tells you. "What is it? I'm not pretty enough for you anymore?"
Desperate, shaking your head in disbelief, you try to pour oil on troubled waters by apologizing for something you never did in the first place.
But it's too late. The sex is cut off. And it's only after innumerable phone calls, flower deliveries, and humiliating begging that you manage to restore harmony.
For something you never did in the first place.
What the hell happened here?
Well, my friend, you were just a victim of "The Test." And you failed it miserably.
the nasty tests women dishWomen are like spoiled children. They are self-focused, insecure and irrational. They crave drama and games. They demand constant attention, reassurance, and above all, power in relationships. And, like children, who ceaselessly push limits to see just how much they can get away with from their parents, women relentlessly test men.
Just how do women test? Here are a few examples:
Why women will always test you, and what you can do about it
