		<description><![CDATA[Via SmartBlog:

Nonverbal tells. Liars don’t rehearse their  gestures, just their words. The cognitive load is already huge, so when  they tell their story, they freeze their upper body, look down, lower  their voice, and slow their breathing and blink rate.

		<description><![CDATA[Part two in my Awkward Tip Etiquette series 
I stiffed my take-out waiter for the first time this weekend and got an ugly look for it.
Normally I tip receptionists a buck for boxing my meal and carrying it all the way from the kitchen to the reception desk. (Excruciating work, I know.) But this time [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[
Want to encourage better conversion rates on your website (be it purchases, blog traffic, whatever) while looking good? Don&#8217;t give your readers more than a few options to choose from. By forcing them to look at what you want, you&#8217;ll enjoy more targeted traffic.
Apple does it. So does Shoe Guru. Both may be extreme, but [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I got a bone to pick with cheap employers, of which there are several in my resident state of Utah. Here&#8217;s what they do.

They don&#8217;t pay competitive hourly wages for jobs that don&#8217;t require significant waiting on the customer, like a server does in a restaurant.

The Tipping Point (chapters here)
