PLEASE TAKE TIME TO READ THIS. it may save a life. Reblog this!
It seems that alot of attackers use some tactic to get away with violence. Not many people know how to take care of themselves when faced with such a
situation. Everyone should read this especially each n every girl in this world. THOUGHT THIS WAS GOOD INFO TO PASS ALONG…
FYI - Through a rapist’s eyes! A group of rapists and date rapists in prison were interviewed on what they look for in a potential victim and here are some interesting facts:
1] The first thing men look for in a potential victim is hairstyle.
They are most likely to go after a woman with a ponytail, bun! , braid, or other hairstyle that can easily be grabbed. They are also likely to go after a woman with long hair. Women with short hair are not common targets.
2] The second thing men look for is clothing. They will look for women who’s clothing is easy to remove quickly. Many of them carry scissors around to cut clothing.
3] They also look for women using their cell phone, searching through their purse or doing other activities while walking because they are off guard and can be easily overpowered.
4] The number one place women are abducted from / attacked at is grocery store parking lots.
5] Number two is office parking lots/garages.
6] Number three is public restrooms.
7] The thing about these men is that they are looking to grab a woman and quickly move her to a second location where they don’t have to worry about getting caught.
8] If you put up any kind of a fight at all, they get discouraged because it only takes a minute or two for them to realize that going after you isn’t worth it because it will be time-consuming.
9] These men said they would not pick on women who have umbrellas,or other similar objects that can be used from a distance, in their hands.
10] Keys are not a deterrent because you have to get really close to the attacker to use them as a weapon. So, the idea is to convince these guys you’re not worth it.
———————————————————————————————————————————-
POINTS THAT WE SHOULD REMEMBER:
1] If someone is following behind you on a street or in a garage or with you in an elevator or stairwell, look them in the face and ask them a question, like what time is it, or make general small talk:
can’t believe it is so cold out here, we’re in for a bad winter. Now that you’ve seen their faces and could identify them in a line- up, you lose appeal as a target.
2] If someone is coming toward you, hold out your hands in front of you and yell Stop or Stay back! Most of the rapists this man talked to said they’d leave a woman alone if she yelled or showed that she would
not be afraid to fight back. Again, they are looking for an EASY target.
3] If you carry pepper spray (this instructor was a huge advocate of it and carries it with him wherever he goes,) yelling I HAVE PEPPER SPRAY and holding it out will be a deterrent.
4] If someone grabs you, you can’t beat them with strength but you can do it by outsmarting them. If you are grabbed around the waist from behind, pinch the attacker either under the arm between the elbow and
armpit or in the upper inner thigh - HARD. One woman in a class this guy taught told him she used the underarm pinch on a guy who was trying to date rape her and was so upset she broke through the skin and tore out muscle strands the guy needed stitches. Try pinching yourself in those places as hard as you can stand it; it really hurts.
5] After the initial hit, always go for the groin. I know from a particularly unfortunate experience that if you slap a guy’s parts it is extremely painful. You might think that you’ll anger the guy and make him want to hurt you more, but the thing these rapists told our
instructor is that they want a woman who will not cause him a lot of trouble. Start causing trouble, and he’s out of there.
6] When the guy puts his hands up to you, grab his first two fingers and bend them back as far as possible with as much pressure pushing down on them as possible. The instructor did it to me without using
much pressure, and I ended up on my knees and both knuckles cracked audibly.
7] Of course the things we always hear still apply. Always be aware of your surroundings, take someone with you if you can and if you see any odd behavior, don’t dismiss it, go with your instincts. You may feel
little silly at the time, but you’d feel much worse if the guy really was trouble.
——————————————————————————————————————————-
FINALLY, PLEASE REMEMBER THESE AS WELL ….
I know you are smart enough to know these pointers but there will be some, where you will go “hmm I must remember that” After reading forward it to someone you care about, never hurts to be careful in this crazy world we live in.
1. Tip from Tae Kwon Do: The elbow is the strongest point on your body. If you are close enough to use it, do it.
2. Learned this from a tourist guide to New Orleans : if a robber asks for your wallet and/or purse, DO NOT HAND IT TO HIM. Toss it away from you…. chances are that he is more interested in your wallet and/or
purse than you and he will go for the wallet/purse. RUN LIKE MAD IN THE OTHER DIRECTION!
3. If you are ever thrown into the trunk of a car: Kick out the back tail lights and stick your arm out the hole and start waving like crazy. The driver won’t see you but everybody else will. This has saved lives.
4. Women have a tendency to get into their cars after shopping,eating, working, etc., and just sit (doing their checkbook, or making a list, etc. DON’T DO THIS! The predator will be watching you, and this is the perfect opportunity for him to get in on the passenger side,put a gun to your head, and tell you where to go. AS SOON AS YOU CLOSE the DOORS , LEAVE.
5. A few notes about getting into your car in a parking lot, or parking garage:
a. Be aware: look around your car as someone may be
hiding at the passenger side , peek into your car, inside the passenger side floor, and in the back seat. ( DO THIS TOO BEFORE RIDING A TAXI CAB) .
b. If you! u are parked next to a big van, enter your car from the passenger door. Most serial killers attack their victims by pulling them into their vans while the women are attempting to get into their cars.
c. Look at the car parked on the driver’s side of your vehicle, and the passenger side. If a male is sitting alone in the seat nearest your car, you may want to walk back into the mall, or work, and get a guard/policeman to walk you back out. IT IS ALWAYS BETTER TO BE SAFE THAN SORRY. (And better paranoid than dead.)
6. ALWAYS take the elevator instead of the stairs. (Stairwells are horrible places to be alone and the perfect crime spot).
7. If the predator has a gun and you are not under his control, ALWAYS RUN! The predator will only hit you (a running target) 4 in 100 times; And even then, it most likely WILL NOT be a vital organ. RUN!
8. As women, we are always trying to be sympathetic: STOP IT! It may get you raped, or killed. Ted Bundy, the serial killer, was a good-looking, well educated man, who ALWAYS played on the sympathies of unsuspecting women. He walked with a cane, or a limp, and often asked “for help” into his vehicle or with his vehicle, which is when he abducted his next victim.
Send this to any woman you know that may need to be reminded that the world we live in has a lot of crazies in it and it’s better safe than sorry.

Food Coloring
Below you'll find information on food coloring that is commonly used and some ways to make your own (see below).
The following colors are used in food.
Blue 1 or also known under the name Brilliant Blue – you can find it in snacks, sauces, candies and soft drinks. It can cause Cancer, ADHD, Rhinitis and Asthma
Green 3 or Fast Green is found in sauces, icings, baked goods, gelatins and also in vegetables. It has been linked to bladder cancer and Allergies.
Orange B found in sausages and Hot dogs. Can be the cause of Allergies, ADHD and also Kidney Damage..
Red 3 or Erythrosine found in popsicles, candies and baked goods. Has been connected with Chromosomal damage and Thyroid Tumors.
Red 40 or Allura Red AC. Used in common snack foods such as Goldfish. Can additional be found in sauces, candies and soft drinks. This color has been connected with ADHD, Cancer, Asthma, Rhinitis
Yellow 5 or Tartrazine – found in candies, jams, cake mixes, cereals, snacks, instant noodles. It has been connected with ADHD, blurred Vision, Anxiety, Migraines and Asthmatic Attacks. (You should think twice, when you buy your kids favorite breakfast cereal which contains this dye.)
Yellow 6 or Sunset Yellow - found in sausages, gelatins and baked goods – this dye can be the cause of Adrenal Gland and Kidney Tumors.
Mellow Yellow
Boil 2 cups of water in a pot on your stove. When a full boil is reached you can take the pot from the burner and let the water cool for about 30-60 seconds.
Now add a small amount of turmeric to the water. Once you have obtained the shade of yellow you want you can quit adding this herbal coloring agent. If you will use stale, outdated turmeric instead of a fresher version you can get the natural color without the strong herbal flavoring.
After the colored water has cooled it can be stored in a glass container with a tight fitting lid.
Great Green Color from Spinach
Add 2 cups of spinach leaves to a pot and add enough cold water to cover the leaves.
Boil for 60 seconds.
Allow pot to simmer on the lowest heat setting of your stove for an additional 10 minutes.
Let the water cool and then strain it through cheesecloth or a wire mesh strainer.
You can safely store the green food color in any glass container that has a tight fitting lid.
The Royal Color of Ruby Red
Add a few beets to a pan. Add enough water to cover the beets. You do not have to wash or peel the beets before using them for this recipe.
Now simmer the beets for about 45 minutes, or until they are tender enough that you can pierce the beets with a fork.
Allow the pan to cool. Remove the beets and use a paring knife to peel them. Slice or chop the beets and then add these vegetables back to the pan containing the boiled water.
Let the pan sit undisturbed for several hours so the water can absorb the deep, ruby coloring from the beets.
Pour the liquid through a piece of clean cheesecloth or a fine, mesh strainer. You should have about 1-1/2 cups of water. Combine the colored water with 2 ¼ teaspoons of a natural white vinegar. Add this mixture to a glass container with a tight fitting lid. Shake well, label the container and store until needed.
Berry Blue Food Color
Add 1-2 cups of water and 1 cup of blueberries to a pot. Fresh or frozen berries can be used.
Allow the berries to simmer on the stove for 20-40 minutes.
After the liquid has cooled for about 15 minutes you can pour it into a blender and pulverize the mixture for 1 minute.
Once this process is completed use cheesecloth or a fine mesh strainer to separate the berry particles from the liquid.
Once straining has been completed this natural blue food coloring liquid can be safely kept in a glass container. Always make sure the lid to the container is one that forms a tight seal.
Tips to Help You Create the Best Natural Food Colors
Do not store any of your liquids in plastic containers because the containers will become stained, and chemicals from the plastic will be leached into the food color.
Don't be afraid to experiment with different herbs and plants to come up with other colors.
The shades of these natural food colors can be intensified or lightened depending on how much of the main ingredients you decide to use.
Here are some more suggestions – which fruits and vegetables you can use to make your own handmade food coloring – it is easy and fun – just juice them or boil them.
Brown: coca or coffee powder
Green: kale, parsley, spinach, romaine, cucumber, bell pepper, watercress.... Boiled green veggies, using the water/juice will give you a much lighter green color
Pink or Red (depending how much of the fruits of vegetables you use): beets, berries, cranberries, tomatoes, rhubarb, strawberries, pomegranate, - mostly you use the juice of it – however, sometimes it makes sense you use the whole fruit (for cakes, etc)
Purple and Blue (depending how much of the fruits of vegetables you use): cabbage (can be juiced or boiled), blueberries, skin of the eggplant, blackberried, grapes (black or purple ones)
Yellow/Orange: curry and/or turmeric powder, or yellow beets, carrots,
