Catch a Staten Island ferry in New-York

This is a nice way to spend a couple of hours in New-York, especially if it's a nice sunny day. Just go down-town and catch a ferry to the Staten Island and back. It's great if you like water trips, you get a great view on the Statue of Liberty and on the Manhatten sky line.

Oh, and it's free, too!

Pack yourself a flight bag

If you're taking a long flight, don't forget to pack yourself a small bag you'll be taking with you on the plane.

Put in it some book or mp3 player, earphones, some warm cloth, and whatever you may need - medicine, sleeping pills, etc. Trust me, you don't want to find out that your toothbrush is in your luggage half way between London and New-York.

Is the egg boiled or raw?

Have you ever found an egg in a refrigerator and had no idea if it's already boiled or not? Well, there is an easy way to find out! Try spinning the egg around. If the spin is fast - the egg is already boiled. If the spin is slow and holds only for a couple of spins - the egg is raw.

The reason for that is that the raw egg is liquid inside, and this liquid is interfering with the spin.
