Myth â„–1 The final figure, being given to you after the end of the IQ test, is a parameter of your mind and abilities.
Actually The test contains some sections (so-called subtests) - on abstract, verbal, figurative thinking, etc. Results of subtests are summarized, and the average value as a result is being stood out. Hence, a person, having an outstanding figurative thinking and very poor logic, will get an average final result.
Myth â„–2 The higher IQ is, the clever its owner will be.
Actually There is a joke that high parameters of the test show not the intelligence of the person, but the ability to pass tests for factor of intelligence. In fact IQ points are a parameter of ability of the person to learn something new. It is a degree to which the person can observe and understand an event. But neither to practical mind, nor to creative abilities is related.
Myth â„–3 The person with high IQ has more chances, than others, to succeed in business.
Actually For achievement of vital success persistence and high motivation without fail should be applied on high parameters of intelligence. The person possessing high intelligence, but deprived persistence, can waste all life pending “the high time”. The person, persevered in knowledge but unmotivated by any purposes, risks to waste all possible opportunities. The combination has persistence plus of motivation, let even at absence of strongly pronounced intelligence has the greatest chances for success.

Physiological changes at women during and after pregnancy
1st trimester
Practically from the moment of conception the female organism starts to prepare for a birth and feeding by a breast. Many women notice the changes occurring to mammary glands even before to the first delay of menses. Thus, swelling of mammary glands can serve as the first signal, that you are pregnant.
Soon, the quantity of a fatty fabric in mammary glands and quantity of circulated blood, that promotes growth of dairy channels, increases. Many women feel some weight in the field of a thorax as the breast becomes harder. Veins on a breast can become more appreciable, dummies to increase, the prepapillary circle becomes darker.
How to facilitate the state at this stage:
Buy new bra.
Limit the use salt, as it keeps moisture and leads to puffiness.
2nd trimester
Approximately after achievement of the middle of term mammary glands get the necessary volume for manufacture of milk. Because of increase in volume there can be extensions or an itch.
Breast after a birth
Right after branches of a placenta the prolactin hormone, signaling mammary gland that is time to make milk, starts to be developed. Formation of milk is stimulated with the further sucking movements of the baby, therefore if you plan to nurse, start to it do as soon as possible.
With the advent of the milk the breast swells considerably, becoming heavy and may be covered with pimples and it can itch.
To facilitate unpleasant sensations, it is possible to do the following actions:
If you plan to continue to nurse, in the first some days reduce stagnation of milk to a minimum as it will provide good formation of new milk.
If you do not plan to nurse, it is recommended one day prior to a birth of the child and all next week to carry a rigid sports bra.
Whether the breast will return to its antenatal condition?
After you have taken away the child from a breast, the rests of milk will be absorbed by your organism. Dummies will come back to the former size. The breast also will come back to antenatal volume if you come back to antenatal weight. There is one “but”: the breast will not look so elastic as up to sorts, and nothing can be done here.

Photoepilation
Photoepilation foresees the influence of short flashes of light hair bulbs. The principle of elimination of a follicle is the same, as at laser epilation, the only difference is that the influence is excreted on the greater area by the light ray with other physical features. Laser epilation is quite often carried to one of epilation kinds. The advantages of this method are: painlessness, an opportunity of carrying out of procedure in “bikini zones” and on the face.Â
Thermolysis
Thermolysis provides hair removal of due to a variable electric current. Passing through a hair follicle, the current causes fluctuations of molecules and leads to local allocation of heat and destruction of the cells, being a source of growth of hair. The Flash-method means the use of an alternating current of high frequency that allows making procedure of less painful at the same effect. The Blend-method combines thermolysis and electrolysis, that makes the procedure less painful, but more long. The advantages are the rapidity, proof effect; the only problem is that the procedure is quite painful and can’t be used for the “bikini zone” and the face.
Electrolysis
At electrolysis procedure a hair follicle is influence by constant electric current. The electrochemical reaction occurs in the end of a needle which, is brought to hair. The newly formed alkali and acid destroy the cells, responsible for the growth of hair. The main advantage of this method consists in smaller morbidity comparing to thermolysis that in turn, defines an opportunity of carrying out of procedure in sensitive zones. Unfortunately, such procedure requires a lot of time and a dose of patience.
Wax epilation (waxing)
Wax epilation includes hair plucking by means of wax that can be accompanied by removal of a hair follicle. The special structure, containing adhesive substances, is put on the skin (wax, honey, biologically active substances, sedatives, etc.). So, the removal of hair occurs together with removal of wax. Low price is the only advantage of a method. The insignificant decrease in growth of hair will be marked through some procedures.
Chemical depilation
The principle of chemical depilation consists in influence on hair of the chemical substances containing in a depilating cream. After destruction of albuminous layers of an external part of hair it easily gives in to painless removal. The obvious advantage of this procedure is in its painlessness, an opportunity of application on the face and in “bikini zones”. But it is necessary to remember about the allergic reactions and irritations of the skin, and also weak influence of a cream on rigid, dark hair.

Today there are about ten methods of undesirable hair elimination: from become in short terms super known laser epilation up to unfamiliar to the sugaring. The aim of our article is to represent data on depilation and epilation in order to give the full information and allow you to choose the suitable method. The term epilation assumes influence on reproductive system of hair - a hair bulb, or a hair follicle. It means, that epilation foresees not only the removal of hair, but also the elimination of their superfluous growth. Through one or more often some procedures the quantity of hair bulbs decreases, due to what the constant effect is reached.
Depilation assumes the removal of hair without the influence on a hair follicle, though some influence on reproductive system of hair nevertheless is present. The difference is only that at wax depilation and other methods of hair plucking, the effect arises only some months later.
Laser epilation
Its principle consists in destroying influence of a laser beam on a hair follicle. It is known, that a pigment in a bulb cells absorbs light contain and collapses. Laser epilation is painless, owing to local, short in time (millisecond) influence and fast cooling. So, the basic advantage of this kind of epilation is an opportunity of carrying out of procedure in “zones of bikini”, auxiliary areas, on the face. The other doubtless advantage of laser epilation is the high factor of removal of hair (kill ratio) - the percent of hair the removed for ever for one procedure. The disadvantages of laser epilation are the existing restrictions at a light skin and light hair, and also its high cost in comparison with other methods. It depends on quantity of impulses of a laser beam that is in turn defined by the area of epilation, quantity of hair and their structure (at rigid, dark hair - is more expensive, at soft - is cheaper).

Only 15 % of women prefer contraceptive tablets. Hormonal tablets have appeared only about 10-15 years ago, and, as all the new, have been apprehended with mistrust and vigilance. The majority of female fears are strongly exaggerated, especially if to speak about hormonal preparations of the third generation.
Difficulties of a choice
The combined oral contraceptives (COCs) may be monophase, biphasic and three-phase. Monophase COCs contain a constant doze of hormones: what a tablet you have taken, quantity of operating substances in it same, as well as in previous. Biphasic COCs simulate ovulation, therefore the first 10 tablets contain an estrogen, and in minimum quantities, and the others 11 - progestin component. So biphasic preparations need to be taken precisely under the scheme and to not to be changed at all their sequence. Three-phase contraceptives gradually increase a doze of gestations and estrogen, leading up it up to a maximum in the middle of a cycle and reducing before the menses. It is difficult to say which of these medicines works more effectively, in fact each woman has her own particular features the cycle. For example, if the organism has got used to strong hormonal jump in the middle of a cycle, the monophase preparations calculated on menses cycle without differences, will not approach it. The three-phase COCs are more often subscribed to such ladies - they allow direct the ovulation under that regime to which the organism has got already used.

We advise you to rinse fat hair with pure water, then - dark hair - should be rinsed with vinegar water (1 spoon of vinegar per 1 liter of water), and light hair should be rinsed with acidified chamomiles water (2 spoons of chamomiles per 500 ml of water with addition of lemon juice).
