4 important questions to ask in a relationship to improve understanding

Great understanding of a relationship is very important for everyone in a relationship. The only way to know someone better is by asking questions. For a couple of people in a relationship to build a great understanding, it is advisable that these questions be asked;



1. "What do you find hard to talk about with me?"
For many reasons, many couples find it hard to open up on certain issues that touch their lives. In order to build trust and openness, it is advisable to ask what these things are and why they find it hard talking about them.
Their answers might be strange but you have to accept that that's what they actually are.



2. "What do you think about our relationship?"
This is a better approach to get to know what your partner has in mind about you and the relationship.
It is sometimes hard to directly ask your partner how much they love you but with this question, it is simple to know what they actually feel.



3. "How close are you with your family?"
Asking someone about their family and how they relate to them is a great way to express your urge to build a strong togetherness.
Additionally, this has been found to build trust and emotional intimacy.



4. "What would you want to change about me or yourself?"
This question is usually asked with an aim of knowing whether your partner recognises their bad sides and whether they would love to change them.
Similarly, they would point to your bad sides and change you or ask you to change on that.

9 odd but effective ways to stop snoring

If you're not quit ready for oral devices or losing weigh, there are some weird but effective snoring solutions from Sambataro and other sleep experts:

1. Sleep on a tennis ball . Lying on your back when you sleep puts greater pressure on your throat, so shifting to your side may work to quiet loud snoring, Dr. M. Safwan Badr, president of the American Academy of Sleep Medicine, told Huffington Post. To improve your odds of actually staying asleep on your side, sew a tennis ball into the front pocket of an old t-shirt, then wear the shirt backwards to bed. This should make it super uncomfortable to lie on your back once you drift off. Once you've adjusted to the new sleep position (and stopped snoring), you can ditch the uncomfy shirt.
2. Using a full body pillow may also help with snoring. Photo: Contributed by vailrealtynj.com/For the AJC
3. Buy a longer pillow  . According to Reader's Digest, a full-length body pillow can help you adjust to sleeping on your side.
4. Do tongue aerobics . Sounds a little odd, and you may not want an audience, but strengthening your tongue and the facial muscles you use to chew and swallow with exercises known as "myofunctional therapy" can work wonders with snoring, according to Sambataro. "Muscle weakness within the tongue, mouth, and upper throat may lead to snoring and obstructive sleep apnea," he says.
5. Change out your pillows . No, you're not trying to re-decorate the snoring away. Instead, you're after the allergens in your bedroom and in your pillow that may contribute to snoring. "If you feel fine during the day but obstructed at night, these things may be contributing to your snoring," Sambataro says. "Everyone should evaluate whether your pillows are creating some nasal congestion due to a reaction to the material."
6. Pop a bit of peppermint . A drop or two of peppermint oil rubbed around your nose may be able to open nasal passages, and peppermint mouthwash could shrink throat tissue that contributes to snoring, according to RD.
7. Mix mint into the humidifier . If you have the option to use a humidifier at night, bump your odds of opening your nasal passages by adding a few drops of peppermint oil to the water, RD suggested.
8. Combat snoring with a nose cone. Sambataro also suggests nose cones you place in each nostril to expand it. "This technique has a similar effect as strips, without the irritation of removing them in the morning," he notes.
9. Nod off after nasal sprays . With regular use, sprays will help get rid of the bacteria and fungus that produce mucous and eventually obstruct the nasal airway, Sambataro noted.

Lesson three

First, let’s learn the names of the white keys. You can use the diagram below to help you.
As you may know already, we use the alphabet to name the white notes of the piano, starting with “A” and moving up by step from left to right through the alphabet to “G”. The next note after “G” is “A”, where the pattern repeats: “A” through to “G”.

You may have already noticed that this occurs all over the keyboard — both up and down — and there are multiple “A”s, “B”s “C”s and so on. It’s common for pianists to refer to the “A” to “G” that sits in the middle of the keyboard as “middle A”, “middle B”, “middle C” and so on.

How do we learn it?

To identify the white notes quickly, you can use the black keys as orientation points , like points on a map. For example (using the diagram below), if I want to find the note “A”, look for a group of three black keys, move inwards to the two white keys enclosed, and “A” is on the right-hand-side.

Why learn it like this?

By using the black keys as orientation points, it makes identifying the white notes quick and easy compared with trying to work them out sequentially. It’s worth learning a few of the notes using this approach. For example, I could easily remember where “F” is by looking for the group of three black keys. “F” is the white key on the left-hand-side, as you’ll see in the diagram below. Before long you’ll know the white keys inside out.

Good-to-know terminology

A musical term you may have already heard, that defines the distance between two successive notes that share the same name (e.g. from middle “A” to the next “A” above), is called an “octave”.

We’d call the distance from middle “A” to the next “A” above that “two octaves”. Have a quick glance at the next diagram. The next “A” above that (still starting on “middle A”) would be “three octaves” — you get the idea.


( N.B. words like above or up on a keyboard means to move right, whereas
below or down means to move left.)


Octaves are useful to know because if you were instructed to play an “A” two octaves above “middle A”, you’d know which “A” you’d need to play. Similarly, if you were instructed to play an “A” two octaves below “middle A”, you’d know to instead play that “A” (the one two octaves below “middle A”), etc.


Practice tips
Bite-size chunks are where it’s at. They’re easier to digest, understand and remember. It’ll be a theme amongst most practice tips . When learning the white keys, do a little and often. Rather than sitting down for an unproductive hour, why not try to make habit of testing yourself for a minute or two every time you walk past your piano?
For example, just before leaving for work in the morning, spend 30 seconds trying to find all the “F”s up and down the keyboard. Once you’re familiar with the “F”s, when you next pass the piano, try and find all the “C”s. Then all the “A”s, etc. Before long you’ll have sussed all the names of the white keys.

Lesson two

This simple piano notes chart is designed to help beginners find their way around the piano keyboard. If you’re just getting familiar with the piano keyboard, all you need to do is recognize this pattern of black keys:

As described in the article Layout of Piano Keys , this pattern of groups of two and three black keys repeats itself over and over. All you need to do is learn this pattern, and you’ll be able to find any key on the piano using the piano notes chart.
But here’s an essential point which you probably won’t learn elsewhere: The piano keys don’t “really” have names. They’re just keys, not notes. (The article Piano Key Chart explains this concept in more detail.) The only exception is middle C, which is (roughly) in the middle of the piano keyboard, and that is only by convention.
I understand that this may be confusing at first, but it’s a good idea to understand this concept now; otherwise learning sharps and flats on the piano will be unnecessarily confusing later on.
The piano keyboard is relative, and it has to be relative to something , so let’s take middle C as our starting point. To orient yourself with the piano keyboard, find the first white key to the left of the group of two black keys, in the middle of the keyboard. That’s middle C:

Play middle C. Now play the next seven white keys in succession, going up the keyboard (to the right). It should sound like this:
This last key you played is also C, one octave higher. This is where the pattern of keys repeats itself. You just played a C major scale, in fact. Here are the note names for the C major scale:

Take “note” of these note names, since they will orient you on the piano keyboard. This, then, will serve as your piano notes chart.
What’s interesting is that these keys aren’t actually
called C, D, E, etc. They just play those notes. The same keys also play other notes. For instance, we could play a B-sharp major scale, in which you’d play the exact same keys on the piano, but this time all the keys would correspond to entirely different notes, starting with B-sharp. And of course on the piano C major and B-sharp major sound exactly the same, since they’re played using the exact same keys.

The black keys
This leads us to the black keys… which leads us to
accidentals. “Accidentals” are by design… they’re no accident. They’re the sharps and flats . A sharp means to play the next higher key on a piano, while a flat means to play the next lower key. Thus, the key immediately to the right of middle C is C-sharp . But it is also D-flat , since it is immediately to the left of D.
Exercise : See if you can name notes that correspond to the black keys. For a more advanced exercise, try to find alternate names for the white keys! I’ll give you a hint: Notes are not necessarily limited to just one sharp or flat….

Summary
Let’s summarize the piano notes chart. All you need to understand for now are the following few points:
The groups of two and three black keys
Middle C
The letters A through G
Sharps and flats are instructions to play the next higher and lower keys, respectively.

Now that you’ve familiarized yourself with the piano keyboard, you’ll longer need the piano notes chart. For the next step (and the answers to the exercise), it’s time to move on to the Piano Key Chart .

Zinedine Zidane joins Juventus: Ex-Real Madrid boss follows Cristiano Ronaldo to Juve

Former Real Madrid manager Zidane is currently out of work after quitting the Bernabeu at the end of last season.
But he has agreed to join Juve’s technical staff and will work alongside Fabio Paratici as a director.
That is according to Spanish outlet Libertad Digital, who claim radio station El Primer Palo will divulge more details of the deal tonight.
Zidane’s supposed appointment at Juve comes just days after Cristiano Ronaldo signed for the club.
The manager and Ronaldo were part of the Real Madrid side that won a third consecutive Champions League crown in May.

The French manager was appointed Real boss in January 2016 and oversaw a period of European dominance at the Bernabeu.
Zidane quit in May, citing fatigue, and was replaced by Julen Lopetegui.
Juventus legend
Zidane moving to Juventus is certain not a surprise, considering his history with the club.
The former midfielder was Juve’s for five years before he was sold to Real for a then-record transfer fee of €77.5m in 2001.
He left Juventus having won two Serie A titles but never clinched the Champions League with the Old Lady.
He was signed after Juve beat Ajax on penalties in the 1996 final and was on the losing side in both 1997 and 1998 as the Turn club lost to Borussia Dortmund and Real Madrid respectively.

Zidane to Juventus
Fast forward two decades and Juve appear determined to match the likes of European superpowers Real Madrid , Barcelona, PSG and Bayern Munich once again by investing heavily in the squad this summer.
They paid Real £105m for Ronaldo, who has penned a four-year contract worth £106m.
Juve chief Beppe Marotta is determined to bring the Champions League back to Turin, with the club having lost their last five European Cup finals.
That includes a 4-1 defeat to Zidane’s Real in Cardiff last year.

It was thought Zidane was due to take a break from football before heading back into management for the start of the 2019/20 campaign.
The France post was also tipped to go to the 1998 World Cup winner, but Didier Deschamps looks set to keep his job after Les Bleus won the World Cup on Sunday.
Pressure on Allegri
Zidane’s arrival at Juve would certainly put pressure on manager Max Allegri to deliver the Champions League this season.
The Italian, who took over from Antonio Conte in 2014, has won the league in each of his four seasons at Juve and reached two Champions League finals.
There were reports earlier in the year that he could quit the club this summer - but Allegri is determined to give Europe at least one more crack this term.
Juve are expected to dominate Serie A once again this season, with Napoli their only realistic challengers for the title.
Both Milan clubs are in turmoil off the pitch, while Roma lost talisman Radja Nainggolan to Inter in the transfer market and goalkeeper Alisson is tipped to leave as well.

Four reasons Ronaldo or Messi may not win ballon d'or

#1 Dismissal World Cup Campaigns

Lionel Messi for Argentina’s subpar world cup performance. Nevertheless, he was a part of the team which failed to deliver. He missed a crucial penalty in the first match, and couldn’t make much impact in the game against Croatia. He did score a crucial goal against Nigeria in sublime style, but looked far from his usual best. In the last match of their campaign, he tried everything he could, but unfortunately, Argentina were not good enough. Messi Wasn't good enough.

Cristiano Ronaldo might have had a good world cup statistically, but he too was, far from the beast he is for Real Madrid in the UCL. Again, it might be unfair to expect the same performances as Portugal doesn't have the quality Real Madrid has. But for a player with the caliber of Ronaldo, he should have been better.

Ron opened his campaign with a stunning performance. But that's it. In the second match, apart from a great header, Ron looked lackluster. In the third match against Iran, he couldn't do much. A clueless performance in the quarter-finals meant Portugal couldn't manage to beat a clinal and rock solid Uruguay.

Leo and Cristiano are not the sole reason their countries failed to deliver. But they are one of the reasons.
#2 RONALDO'S MOVE TO JUVENTUS

Juventus are an elite team, no doubt. But do they have the quality and motivation Real Madrid have? Ronaldo has been a constant performer for Madrid, due to reliable balls to pounce on. His Chemistry with Marcelo and Benzema has great benefited Real, and Ronaldo.

Juventus may try to replicate the chemistry, and may even be successful in it. However, the harsh truth is, Juventus isn't Real Madrid. Ronaldo’s transfer to a less famous league and a hard start to the UCL campaign could reduce his chances significantly. Moreover, even though Ronaldo is a great player, every player requires time to adapt. Will 5 months before the Ballon d’Or race be enough for Cristiano? Only time will tell.

#3 Embarrassing Exit from the UCL for Leo
       

Lionel Messi had a sensational domestic campaign, as always. Being the Top scorer of the league, and winner of a domestic double is a magnificent achievement for any player. But for Lionel Messi, it is only satisfactory. Leo’s UCL campaign- Barcelona’s UCL campaign- had a disastrous end.

They were favorites and looked on course for a historic third treble. However, one horror show in Rome was all it took. Barcelona and Messi fell hard. Barcelona couldn't produce anything special, and Lionel Messi missed an opportunity which could have put the tie to bed. This is the third time in a row Barcelona couldn't get past the quarter finals, and the third time in a row their Arch-rivals won the UCL.

 That night in Rome will certainly have inflicted deep wounds into Barcelona’s season and Messi chances for the Ballon d’Or.

#4 One Name - Luka Modric

A third UCL in three seasons for this midfield genius. Luka Modric dominated the midfield for Real Madrid this season, putting on glorious performances. With Lionel Messi having a disappointing UCL run, and Ronaldo having left Real Madrid, the stage is set for Luka Modric to make the Ballon d’Or his own.

Club achievements alone aren't the reason Luka may win this. After all, playing for Real Madrid means winning the UCL is an expectation, not an achievement.

What truly has been special is his world cup campaign. Forming a solid partnership with Barcelona’s Ivan Rakitic, he had run over the midfield of every team he has faced. His performance against Argentina were glimpses of the Magic he can produce. If the Croatians pull off a huge upset and defeat the mighty Frenchmen, not many people would be willing to bet against Modric from winning the Ballon d’Or.

Maybe the time is just right. Just right for the dominance of Leo and Ron to end. If Luka is the man to do that, the world shouldn’t mind much.
