How To Detect a Lie By Examining Body Gestures

Do you have a clue whenever someone is lying straight in your face? Are you getting the whole truth and nothing but the truth?

I just came across an interesting video from Howcast. It gives you some suggestion and potential tips to gauge whether a person is lying or not.

The tips shared in this video are just guidelines and possible indicators that someone is lying. You should also use your own intelligence to determine the case. You'll need to have - A good ear, Good eyes and A healthy skepticism.

Here a short summary of the steps from the video:

Step 1: Watch their hands
Watch the suspected liar’s hands. Body language studies show that people tend to touch their face and scratch their nose when they lie.

Step 2: Follow their eyes
Follow their eyes. Liars tend to blink a lot and don’t maintain eye contact.

Step 3: Note their words
Note their words. A liar will skip contractions—saying “I did not” instead of “I didn’t”—and avoid pronouns, using someone’s full name instead of “he” or “she.”

Step 4: Check their smile
Check their smile. People who are telling the truth use many facial muscles, but liars smile with just their mouth.

Step 5: Note their posture
Notice their posture. Liars tend to keep their body posture closed (by folding their arms, for example). They may also unconsciously put an object between you, like a cup of coffee.

Step 6: Pause before responding
Pause momentarily before responding; if the silence makes them uncomfortable, they may be lying.

Step 7: Note the details
Pay attention to details. If they provide more information than necessary, that’s a bad sign. People tend to be overly specific when they’re making something up.

Step 8: Change the subject
Change the subject. If they seem relieved, that’s probably a red flag that they’ve been lying straight to your face!

Step 9: Teach your liar a lesson
What you do from here is up to you. It may be smart to file your knowledge away for future use. However, if you’re noticing a trend, it might just be time to teach your liar a lesson.

How To Crack a Master Combination Padlock With a Beer Can

Have you ever set a master combination for you padlock and happens that you forgot what was you password? Does it sound familiar to you? I bet it does for some of you.

It can be very troublesome when you need to use the padlock again or worse still that you need to get things out from your school's locker. What can you do to open it? Are you going to call a "padlock hacker" to crack the code for you which would take them days to crack that 64,000-possible-combinations lock. That's just insane. A better choice would be - just cut the padlock apart. Ouch!

I have a better solution for you. I found this video tutorial teaching you how you can crack open your padlock in a matter of time with just a beer can shim and save your padlock. Check out the video below.

How to Fix Annoying Video Lag in Firefox

Have you ever notice an annoying persistent lag every 10 seconds or so when you are watching a video (YouTube) in Firefox?

Ever since Firefox version 2.0 implemented the session restore function, when you are watching a video on YouTube (perhaps on other video sites as well, you may notice a tiny freeze-up of the video every 10 seconds or so. This is caused by the session restore. By default, it is set to save all open tabs every 10 seconds. If you happen to have a lot of tabs open at once, it's easily noticeable.

Here's the step-by-step fix for this problem:

1. Type in about:config in the Firefox address bar and hit Enter.
2. Next a warning page will appear. Just click on "I'll be careful, I Promise!".
3. In the “Filter” box at the top of the list (where your cursor is blinking), type in browser.sessionstore.interval and it will automatically reduce all the listings.
4. Now you'll see a value of 10000, which is in milliseconds. (Meaning your session is saved every 10 seconds.)
5. Change the number by double clicking on it to 300000, which is 5 minutes. If you feel like being more on the safe side, try increasing it to something a bit lower, say 120000, or every 2 minutes. For me, I choose 300000. If you're a risk taker or you don't rely much on the session restore, you can go for 600000, which is 10 minutes. (Please be at your own risk)

That's all you have to do to fix the annoying lag while watching videos in Firefox. Was that easy or what? If you did give it try, let's hear if it does the trick for you in the comments.
