Juggling is a skill that involves tossing and catching objects in a creative manner. Professional jugglers take years to practice to perfect this art. One of the basic needs for juggling is juggling balls. These balls have to be of a certain weight and shape to help jugglers catch them easily. Here is a simple guide on how to buy juggling balls. Decide on the number of balls you can juggle Some people juggle with three balls, some with five, while others can juggle with even seven balls. You will have to invest in the number of balls once you’ve decided how many balls you can juggle. This answer also decides what size to opt for when you are going to purchase juggling balls. If you are going to juggle with just three balls, large-sized balls are great. These are easily visible to the audience too, and that’s an added advantage. Look for balls that are 6-7 cm in diameter. However, if you are going to juggle with more than five balls, handling balls of larger diameter is going to be a challenge. In such cases, opt for slightly smaller balls (4-6 cm) in diameter. Choose between the different types of balls There are so many types of balls to choose from, such as those listed below:

• Silicon balls: These are bouncy balls that are easy to catch and can be thrown really high. These are perfect if you are going to bounce and catch the balls during your act. Bounce jugglers regularly use these silicon balls.
• Stage balls: As the name suggests, these are used by professionals on stage. When you buy juggling balls for professional performances, these hard, plastic or rubber balls are better to handle.
• Beanbag balls: These are the most affordable and ideal balls for beginners and those who want to juggle as a hobby. These come in a variety of colors and sizes. The balls are made of vinyl and are filled with sand, rock, rubber, and even millets.

The size of the ball When you select juggling balls, the size of the ball is another vital point to keep in mind. Smaller balls are easier to handle while softer balls are easy to maneuver. The bigger the diameter of the ball, the more challenging the juggling will be. If you are a beginner juggler, buy juggling balls that are from brands that are reputed in the industry. You can start with basic beanbag balls and move to more professional models as you get better.

The risk of suffering from a number of mental conditions increases with age. Dementia is one such mental condition that majorly affects elderly people. This is not a disease in itself but is a collection of conditions such as memory loss, weakened coordination and the weakening of other mental faculties. This condition affects different people in different ways. While for some, this condition can progress at a fast pace, others may experience the early stages of dementia for years. What is common in all cases of this condition is that it worsens with time and that there is no cure for this condition. The most common types of Dementia include: • Alzheimer's Disease • Dementia with Lewy bodies • Vascular dementia • Parkinson's disease • Frontotemporal dementia and • Mixed Dementia Each patient of dementia experiences this condition differently. Early stages of dementia are characterised by forgetfulness, impaired special reasoning and difficulties coming up with the right word in a conversation. This is also known as Mild Cognitive Impairment. The stages of dementia ca be categorised as mild, moderate and severe dementia. Mild Dementia: In the early stages of dementia, a person may be said to be suffering from mild dementia. At this stage they can function independently but will begin experiencing symptoms such as: • Forgetting where they keep things • Forgetting words in the middle of a sentence • Forgetting recent events • Persistent complaints of fatigue • Withdraw from society and become more subdued • Difficulty making plans and solving problems • Trouble managing numerical situations such as managing finances • Loss of interest in hobbies or work Moderate dementia: As this condition progresses from the early stages of dementia, patients are likely to need help with their daily lives. Moderate dementia is marked by: • Poor judgement especially in cases of financial decisions • Confusion • Increased memory loss • Loss of long term memory • Impaired coordination of motor skills • Reduced interest in bathing and grooming • Agitation • Suspicion of being persecuted by others • Insomnia and restlessness Severe dementia: In this stage most dementia patients are completely dependent on others to take of them. This stage is marked by worsening mental and physical capabilities. Some of the symptoms characteristic of this stage are: • Inability to communicate • Inability to dress oneself • Inability to eat on their own • Increased susceptibility to infections such as pneumonia • Loss of physical abilities such as walking independently or sitting erect • In its most severe stages, it can also cause urinary incontinence and the loss of control over bowel functioning While dementia cannot be cured, an early diagnosis can help slow the progression of the disease and improve the patient's quality of life. This also gives his or her caregivers enough time to plan their future care requirements. There are also a number of clinical trials being run which a patient in the early stages of dementia may be a viable candidate for.

A new phone called the LG Q8 has been launched by the brand with specifications and features that closely resemble one of the other LG cell phones, the V20, which is priced at around $480. The latter came out in the last year and was a moderate hit. The first news of the LG Q8 was seen on the Italian site of the brand, which failed to mention the price or the specs of the phone. While some people had a good experience with the LG cell phone called the V20, it lacked the premise for higher audio recording and instead came with an option for a removable battery. To make up for these minor inconveniences, one of the best LG cell phones, the Q8 was launched with certain features that overtook the V20 in many ways. Some of these features are:

• A smaller 5.2-inch display as compared to the V20 display size of the 5.7-inch
• A non-removable battery
• An IP67 certification
• Water resistance abilities

Some other specifications of the phone include:

• A display size of 5.2-inch with a resolution of 2,560x1,440 pixels
• 564 ppi pixel density
• 5.87 x 2.83x 0.31 inches dimensions
• Android 7.0 Nougat mobile software system
• It weighs 146 grams
• Its dimensions in millimeters are 149 x 72 x 8 mm
• It comes with a 2.15GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 processor
• With 4K video capture capacity, it comes with a 4 GB RAM and a storage capacity of 32 GB
• The Q8 boasts of an expandable storage of 2 TB and a 3,000mAH battery
• A 16 MP rear camera also works in its favor
• It has rear finger print sensor clearly positioned on the back, other sensors that include the proximity sensor, light sensor, and accelerometer.
• It charges quickly and has a single SIM slot for GSM.
• A regular audio jack of 3.5 mm and loudspeaker capabilities are present in the phone.

It is expected to be launched in January 2018 and is available on 4G and 2G networks. The LG Q8 is now increasingly being touted as a sleeker, repackaged version of the V20 model.

Want to try your luck finding gold in an unclaimed land? All you need is a metal detector.

Metal detectors work on the principle of electromagnetism. Every metal (in solid state) has its own electric and magnetic field. Metal detectors have 2 circuits; one circuit, which is connected to a small battery which powers it up. This circuit is called as transmitter circuit. It sends electricity down the shaft to the coil at the bottom. The coil gets magnetized (changes its magnetic field) when this magnetized coil is swept on the ground and if there is a metal object near its sweep area, the magnetic field of the coil charges the metal object. The magnetic field of the metal detector changes the magnetic and hence the electric field of the metal object. This change in electromagnetism of the metal object is picked up by the receiver circuit of the metal detector. Due to the change in the magnetism of the coil of the metal detector, the electricity flows up the shaft of the detector to the receiver circuit. This change in the electromagnetism registered on receiver circuit confirms a metal detected by the coil.

Gold is not something that you can find in your backyard. And it is highly unlikely and improbable that you will stumble upon a pot of gold. Gold as metal can be found in the size of grain or even as big as nuggets. The place to find gold are the places where gold has been searched earlier and excavated from earlier. Placer deposits along the river streams and river beds can accumulate gold in small amounts.

You need to consider those states in the USA that used to produce gold in the earlier years. You cannot expect to find gold where it isn't to be found so, research your search area. You can head out to the regional libraries or look for details on mines and geological surveys that shed light on details about the type of land and what metal it is abundant of. Also, you need to consider the federal laws of the area you are searching for and the stakes that it will have on the gold you excavate. If the land has a certain ownership and patent, there is a good probability that you might have 'struck gold'.
