Drinking coffee may help you live longer, a new study suggests. Two to three cups a day can cut risk of death by heart disease, stroke, diabetes.

Whether you are having it double-double, espresso, iced or decaf, a massive study out of Harvard University has found coffee drinkers are more likely to live longer.

Results show that death rates over a 13-year period among men and women who drank coffee decreased with a greater number of cups per day, up to six. Researchers say drinking two to three cups of coffee a day cuts the overall risk of death by 10%, especially from heart disease, respiratory problems, stroke, diabetes and infections.

The helpful antioxidants in coffee get most of the credit, along with about 1,000 other compounds besides the caffeine.

The study involved more than 400,000 people monitored over a 13-year period. The entire study can be found in the New England Journal of Medicine.

No matter how long you’ve been together, every relationship needs a healthy dose of flirting.

When most people think of flirting, they tend to think of their early days of dating when capturing each other’s attention and affection was of the utmost importance. However, flirting plays just as important a role in long-term relationships as it does before a couple’s attraction grows into love and turns into deep commitment. Without flirting, affectionate touches, and playful teasing, couples risk losing the spark and passion that separates romantic partners from platonic friends.

Here are ten easy ways to bring flirting back to your relationship:

1. Seduce Him
Remember when you used to get ready for a date by buying new lingerie or booking a blow-out at the salon? Get back to those days when you had so much fun seducing him, and allow yourself to experience the confidence boost that comes from looking and feeling your best.

2. Compliment Him On Something Unexpected
He knows that you find him attractive, but when is the last time you complimented his sexy forearms or marveled at his kisses or the way he holds you? Give him an unexpected compliment and you will boost his mood–and his ego–for the rest of the day.

3. Be Hands-On… Literally!
Grab his hand in the middle of the supermarket, stroke his thigh under the dinner table, or sexily hop on his lap while you are watching television. Touch him every chance you get, and seize all opportunities to be physically close. Let him know, clearly, that you can’t keep your hands off him.

4. Have a Naughty Fantasy
Sometimes the best way to rev up your sexual energy is to spend more time focusing on sexy thoughts. Allow yourself to have a naughty fantasy or read some erotica to inspire your sexual imagination, and then channel that surge of sexuality into your relationship by flirting with your mate.

5. Send a Flirty Text
Technology can sometimes serve as a distraction in a relationship, but it can also be used creatively to generate some sexy sparks between you and your partner. Send him a text during the middle of the day that says, “I can’t stop thinking about your…” or text him during the middle of a double date and say, “Let’s get out of here so we can be alone.”

6. Be More Vocal
Your partner isn’t a mind reader; so when he does something you love inside the bedroom (or outside the bedroom), speak up (in words and groans of delight) to let him know. Positive feedback is one of the best ways to generate more good vibrations. Just acknowledging your pleasure strengthens sexual attraction and intensifies your flirty behavior, and he will take it as a compliment.

7. Lose Some of the Clothes
If you are in the habit of wearing sweats to bed, it might be time to swap out your usual nightwear for something a little sexier. Rethink your bedroom wardrobe and opt to slip into a teddy or a sexy pair of boyshorts and casually put lotion on your legs while he watches… riveted.

8. Go Ahead, Flirt With the Waiter
(A little.) While flirting can sometimes cross the line–and cheating is never okay–a little flirtation with other men can go a long way to remind your mate how irresistible you are. Just be super-nice to the waiter or the mailman. It can give you a boost of confidence to see that other men find you sexy, and it will make your partner doubly glad that you are going home with him!

9. Share Fantasies
Take the chance to exchange some of your most erotic imaginings with the idea of being open to trying them out. Tell your partner exactly what you want him to do, and then ask him to tell you as well. It will be highly erotic to discuss these hidden fantasies and will lead to you both receiving the touches and strokes you desire.

10. Be Bold and Make the First Move
Don’t wait for your partner to make the first move. If you want more flirting in your relationship, then you need to take the initiative and start flirting yourself. Your partner will likely respond by matching your playful, sexy mood. And flirting will become more organic and natural in your relationship.

Hate is what happens when you put a shotgun to the face of understanding and it cowers in the corner

Truth is everything you tell yourself when you realize that no one is looking

Courage is ripping your heart from your chest and saying “here… hold on to this for me”

Trust is when you jump into someone’s arms knowing they would never let you hit the ground

Love is a tablespoon of hemlock I’ve been dying to try

Faith is doing what you love for a living and watching the bills pay themselves

Failure is when you talk yourself out of becoming something amazing

The following is a text version of the infographic above:

Cigars are made carefully through the following process:

Before we explain the specifics, we first want to familiarize you with the structure and composition of a cigar.

The Structure of Cigar

Cap: A small, round piece of tobacco wrapper leaf attached to the head of a cigar. The purpose of the cap is to lock in the wrapper and finish the head.

Head: This is the part of the cigar that one draws or smokes from. The head is always the closed end of the cigar and must be cut about 3 millimeters before the foot is lit.

Cigar Band: The label that surrounds the head of the cigar.

Foot: The foot of a cigar is normally pre-cut and is the part of the cigar that is lit.

Composition of Cigar

Cigars are made up of 3 types of tobacco leaves: the wrapper, filler and binder. Variations of these will determine the flavor characteristics of the cigar.

Wrappers: The leaves on the outer or widest part of the tobacco plant. The wrapper has a large influence on a cigar’s overall character and flavor. The wrapper color is often used to describe the cigar in general.

Fillers: The large majority of a cigar is comprised of filler. Filler is bunches of tobacco leaves grouped together inside the wrapper.

Binders: Leaves that have an elastic character that are used to secure the filler of a cigar together. Binders are for the most part wrappers that were rejected linked to blemishes, holes, discoloration or excessive veins, etc.

The 3 types of Tobacco

Ligero: Is harvested from the top of the tobacco plant, which is normally exposed to the highest level of direct sunlight. It is normally the darkest and the most flavor rich filler of the three.

Seco (Dry): Is pulled from the central portion of the plant. These tobacco leaves are generally lighter than Ligero in both flavor and color.

Volado: is extracted from the lowest portion of the plant. Volado is mostly utilized for its burning properties to help keep a consistent burn. Volado leaves have very little influence on the flavor of a cigar.

Filler: Filler is generally made up of strong ligero leaf in the middle, the lighter seco leaf surrounds the ligero and the volado wraps around both the ligero and seco.

The Manufacturing Process–Cigars are made in 2 ways. By hand or machine.

Cultivation of Tobacco: Tobacco plants are planted and cared for indoors and transplanted into fields once they have aged 6 to 10 weeks. The plants then take several months to grow and mature in the tobacco fields before they are harvested.

Curing: Once the plants are harvested, the tobacco leaves are then cured once they become yellow or dried brown in color. The curing process is begun when the harvested tobacco plants are secured and strung to laths (thin strips of wood). The laths are then hung in a curing barn that is well-ventilated.

Fermenting: After the leaves are cured, they are grouped together and are tied into bundles by size and color. They are then stored away months to years. During this time, the tobacco leaves undergo chemical composition changes (fermentation). During the fermentation process, the tobacco’s flavor and aroma intensifies.

Stripping: The filler leaves are cleaned up and main vein and stems are removed. This is essential to insure the cigar burns evenly. The stripped tobacco leaves are wrapped in bales and stored away so that fermentation can progress further. Once the leaves are just about ready to be used, they are physically steamed to rejuvenate lost humidity.

Wrapping: Wrapping is the most difficult step that can make or break the cigar. The worker takes the partially completed cigar and sets it on the wrapper tobacco leaf. With a unique tool called a chaveta (essentially a rounded knife), the worker trims away any abnormalities from the filler. The hand roller spirals the wrapper leaf around the binder and filler several times, and then finished it off by securing the end of the wrapper with a vegetable paste. The cigar is finished!

Hand rolling: Premium cigars are made by hand. The filler of hand rolled cigars always must be packed carefully and evenly so the cigar always burns smoothly. The wrapper is rolled in an even spiral around the cigar.

Machine rolling: The vast majority of cigars are manufactured by machine.

Inspecting: Completed cigars are inspected in a variety of ways and vary from factory to factory. The cigars are grouped together from the rollers in bundles and are labeled and or stamped with the following details: “Vitola” or size number. The name of the “tabaquero,” or cigar factory. And finally the Production Date.

The first, a blonde, does a total makeover. She goes to a fancy beauty salon, gets her hair done, new makeup; buys several new outfits and dresses up very nicely for the man. She tells him that she has done this to be more attractive for him because she loves him so much.

The man was impressed.

The second, a redhead, goes shopping to buy the man gifts. She gets him a new set of golf clubs, some new gizmos for his computer, and some expensive clothes. As she presents these gifts, she tells him that she has spent all the money on him because she loves him so much.

Again, the man is impressed.

The third, a brunette, invests the money in the stock market. She earns several times the $5,000. She gives him back his $5,000 and reinvests the remainder in a joint account. She tells him that she wants to save for their future because she loves him so much.

Obviously, the man was impressed.

The man thought for a long time about what each woman had done with the money he’d given her.

Then he married the one with the biggest boobs.

A poem in honor of Mother’s Day…

Somebody’s Mother
By Mary D. Brine

The woman was old and ragged and gray,
And bent with the chill of a winter’s day;
The streets were white with a recent snow,
And the woman’s feet with age were slow.

At the crowded crossing she waited long,
Jostled aside by the careless throng
Of human beings who passed her by.
Unheeding the glance of her anxious eye.

Down the street with laughter and shout.
Glad in the freedom of “school let out,”
Come happy boys, like a flock of sheep,
Hailing the snow piled white and deep;
Past the woman, so old and gray.
Hastened the children on their way.

None offered a helping hand to her,
So weak and timid, afraid to stir,
Lest the carriage wheels or the horses’ feet
Should trample her down in the slippery street.

At last came out of the merry troop
The gayest boy of all the group;
He paused beside her and whispered low,
“I’ll help you across, if you wish to go.”

Her aged hand on his strong young arm
She placed, and so without hurt or harm
He guided the trembling feet along,
Proud that his own were young and strong;
Then back again to his friends he went,
His young heart happy and well content.

“She’s somebody’s mother, boys, you know,
For all she’s aged, and poor and slow;
And some one, some time, may lend a hand
To help my mother—you understand?—
If ever she’s old and poor and gray,
And her own dear boy so far away.”

“Somebody’s mother” bowed low her head
In her home that night, and the prayer she said
Was: “God be kind to that noble boy,
Who is somebody’s son and pride and joy.”
