Here are this week’s Life Pro Tips.
1. Ever need another email address but don’t want to register a whole new account? If you add a “+1”, “+2”, etc. before the @ in your email address, websites will register it as a new email, but still, send mail to your normal address. Makes organizing accounts or endless free trials much easier!
Example: Primary email: Bob@gmail*.*com
Modified emails (all go to the primary):
Bob+1@gmail*.*com
Bob+2@gmail*.*com
Bob+3@gmail*.*com
This can be used to endlessly register for free trials like Netflix.
No need to even sign in to the new address because all the confirmation emails go straight to your normal account that you are already logged into.
Instead, you can add anything you want after the plus sign, so you can do Bob+netflix or bob+netflix1, or whatever!
2. If your child does something (like cleaning) out of the norm, don’t ridicule them for it. Positively reinforce it.
3. Treat your ears nicely. Ears don’t repair themselves and earplugs to concerts are better than tinnitus for the rest of your life.
4. Get the originals over low-fat versions of food. After taking out the fat, food tastes terrible, so the companies pump it full of sugar to make up for it. Sugar contributes more to weight gain than fat does.
5. If you think you have an Alcohol Addiction, you probably do. The best thing you can do is get it early before you start getting withdrawals. Go to rehab, meetings, detox, or talk to someone.



4. Low fat foods are targeted towards people with cholesterol problems and lipidemia, not weight control.
