DID YOU KNOW (www.didyouknow.org)
Criminologists and sociologists use the term "dark figure of crime" to describe the number of crimes that go unreported or undiscovered. Researchers agree that official crime statistics have certain limitations: they can be influenced by police discretion and manpower as well as changes in legislation, technology, the economy, and social values. In addition, some crimes are simply not reported to police. ALSO DID YOU KNOW The straw was probably invented by Egyptian brewers to taste in-process beer without removing the fermenting ingredients which floated on the top of the container.


TIP OF THE DAY
How to stop social anxiety
We live in a hyper competitive world. If you are shy of public speaking, or let social anxiety hold you back, it will be very hard for you to survive and thrive in this competitive world. How could you stop social anxiety and forge ahead? Do the following.
Step 1
First, face the reality.
The reality is it's perfectly normal to have social anxiety. But don't let your fear become an excuse for inaction. Recognize that getting over the social anxiety is critical to your success, either in job or in your personal life.
Step 2
Second, take action to stop social anxiety.
You can start by finding a role model to imitate. Watch what your role models do, and adopt their techniques as your courage builds.
To practice, join clubs such as Toastmasters so you can have a chance to practice, share and learn experience with people who are in similar situations, and get guidance from experienced instructors.
Step 3
Third, just do it.

Start with low expectations, and start small. For example, you can start with speaking in front of a small number of people, or in front of people you are familiar with. Once you fee more comfortable, move on to interact with strangers, for example, introduce yourself to someone on the bus, at the grocery store, at the bar, etc. Remember, even you reach out, you might not succeed, but if you don't reach out, you fail.
