Long-lived trees names and life expectancy. The longest living trees in the world
Etiquette is about behaving better than absolutely necessary.
Rules of etiquette, aka basic rules respect and politeness work both ways. You show them towards another person, he shows them towards you. This way everyone wins. But there are several nuances that are worth recalling and clarifying for every self-respecting person:
- Never come to visit without calling. If you are visited without warning, you can afford to wear a robe and curlers. One British lady said that when uninvited guests she always puts on shoes, a hat and takes an umbrella. If a person is pleasant to her, she will exclaim: “Oh, how lucky, I just came!” If it’s unpleasant: “Oh, what a pity, I have to leave.”
- Whoever you are- director, academician, elderly woman or a schoolboy - when entering the room, say hello first.
- Handshake: It is not customary to shake hands with women, but if she extends her hand to a man first, she should shake it, but not as firmly as for men.
- Rules for paying for an order in a restaurant: if you say the phrase “I invite you,” this means you pay. If a woman invites a business partner to a restaurant, she pays. Another formulation: “Let’s go to a restaurant,” - in this case, everyone pays for themselves, and only if the man himself offers to pay for the woman, can she agree.
- The umbrella never gets dry when open.- neither in the office nor at a party. It needs to be folded and placed in a special stand or hung.
- The bag should not be placed on your lap or on your chair.. A small elegant clutch bag can be placed on the table, a large bag can be hung on the back of a chair or placed on the floor if there is no special chair (these are often served in restaurants). The briefcase is placed on the floor.
- The golden rule when using perfume is moderation. If in the evening you smell your own perfume, know that everyone else has already suffocated.
- If you go with someone, and your companion said hello to a stranger, you should say hello too.
- Cellophane bags are acceptable only upon returning from the supermarket, as well as paper branded bags from boutiques. Carrying them with you later as a bag is redneck.
- A man never carries a woman's bag. And he takes a woman’s coat only to carry it to the locker room.
- Home clothes- these are trousers and a sweater, comfortable, but having a decent appearance. The robe and pajamas are designed to go to the bathroom in the morning, and from the bathroom to the bedroom in the evening.
- From the moment your child settles in a separate room, learn to knock when entering his room. Then he will do the same before entering your bedroom.
- A woman may not take off her hat and gloves indoors, but not a hat and mittens.
- Total number of jewelry according to the international protocol should not exceed 13 items, and this includes jewelry buttons. A ring is not worn over gloves, but a bracelet is allowed. The darker it is outside, the more expensive the jewelry. Diamonds used to be considered an adornment for evening and married ladies, but in lately It became permissible to wear diamonds during the day. On a young girl, stud earrings with a diamond of about 0.25 carats are quite appropriate.
- The man always enters the elevator first, but the one closest to the door exits first.
- In the car The most prestigious place is considered to be behind the driver, a woman occupies it, a man sits next to her, and when he gets out of the car, he holds the door and gives the lady his hand. If a man is driving, it is also preferable for a woman to take a seat behind him. However, no matter where the woman sits, the man must open the door for her and help her out. In business etiquette, men have recently been increasingly violating this norm, using the feminist motto: “There are no women and men in business.”
- If after an apology you are forgiven- you shouldn’t return to the offensive issue again and ask for forgiveness again, just don’t repeat such mistakes.
- Talk publicly about the fact that you are on a diet- bad form. Moreover, under this pretext one cannot refuse dishes offered by a hospitable hostess. Be sure to compliment her culinary talents, even if you don't have to eat anything. The same should be done with alcohol. Don't tell everyone why you can't drink. Ask for dry white wine and sip lightly.
- Taboo topics for small talk: politics, religion, health, money. Inappropriate question: “God, what a dress! How much did you pay? How to react? Smile sweetly: “It’s a gift!” Change the conversation to another topic. If the other person insists, say softly: “I wouldn’t like to talk about it.”
- Eight things you should keep secret: age, wealth, prayer, composition of medicine, love affair, gift, honor and dishonor.
- Every person over 12 years of age must be addressed as “you”. It’s disgusting to hear people say “you” to waiters or drivers. Even to those people with whom you know well, it is better to address them as “you” in the office, but only as “you” in private. The exception is if you are peers or close friends. How to react if your interlocutor persistently “pokes” you? First, ask again: “Excuse me, are you addressing me?” Otherwise - a neutral shrug: “Sorry, but we didn’t switch to “you.”
And finally - Jack Nicholson about the rules good manners:
“I am very sensitive to the rules of good manners. How to pass a plate. Don't shout from one room to another. Do not open closed door without knocking. Let the lady go first. The purpose of all these countless simple rules- make life better. This is not some kind of abstraction. This is a language of mutual respect that everyone understands.”

These tasks can be solved on the fly while munching on a sandwich during your lunch break. Or you can break your whole brain, but still not figure out where the truth is and what the catch is.
We offer you together with website stretch your kinks and click logic problems like nuts.
1. The riddle about the prisoners
4 prisoners were sentenced to death.
They put on two white hats and two black hats. Men don't know what color hat they wear. The four prisoners were lined up one behind the other (see picture) in such a way that:
Prisoner #1 can see Prisoners #2 and #3.
Prisoner #2 can see Prisoner #3.
Prisoner #3 doesn't see anyone.
Prisoner #4 doesn't see anyone.
The judge promised freedom to any prisoner who named the color of his hat.
Question: Who named the color of their hat first?
The 4th and 3rd prisoners are silent because they don’t see anything at all.
The 1st prisoner is silent because he sees in front of him hats of different colors: those of the 2nd and 3rd. Accordingly, he has either a white or a black hat.
The 2nd prisoner, realizing that the 1st is silent, concludes that his hat is not the same color as the 3rd’s, namely white.
Conclusion: Prisoner No. 2 was the first to name the color of his hat.
2. Difficulties on the road
One man, while changing a tire on his car, dropped all 4 lug nuts into a drain grate. It is impossible to get them from there. The driver had already decided that he was stuck on the road for a long time, but then a child passing by advised him how to secure the wheel. The driver followed the advice and calmly drove to the nearest tire shop.
Question: What did the child advise?
3. Turnout failed
The man needed to infiltrate the secret club without arousing suspicion. He noticed that everyone who came first answered the guard’s questions and only then entered. The first person to arrive was asked: “22?” He replied: “11!” - and passed. To the second: “28?” The answer was: "14". And it also turned out to be true. The man decided that everything was simple and boldly approached the guard. "42?" - asked the guard. "21!" - the man answered confidently and was immediately expelled.
Question: Why?
4. Gift from Baba Yaga
Summer had already ended when Ivan Tsarevich, heading to a distant kingdom for his bride, asked to spend the night in a hut on chicken legs. Baba Yaga kindly greeted the guest, gave him something to drink, fed, and put him to bed. The next morning she saw off Tsarevich Ivan with the following parting words: “You will meet a river along the way, there is no bridge across it - you will have to swim. Take this magical caftan. Put it on and boldly throw yourself into the river, the caftan will not let you drown.” Ivan Tsarevich walked for a hundred days and nights and finally reached the river. But he didn’t need a caftan to overcome it.
Question: Why?
5. Cages with rabbits
In the yard there were 3 large cages in a row, painted different colors: red, yellow and green. Rabbits lived in cages, and there were twice as many of them in the green cage as in the yellow cage. One day, 5 rabbits were taken from the left cage for a living corner, and half of the remaining ones were transferred to the red cage.
Question: What color was the left cell?
The cell was yellow. The problem suggests that there were twice as many rabbits in the green cage - therefore, there are an even number of them there. After five were taken from the left cell, an even number remained in it (since it was easily divided in half). This means that before the capture the number of rabbits was odd. Thus, the left cell is not green. But it’s not red either, as can be seen from the conditions of the problem.
