In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Alpha males are defined primarily by their dominant characteristics. If he’s really an alpha, he’ll want to feel like he’s in control of the chase. If you catch his eye at a party or in a club, smile at him to let him know you’re interested, but let him be the one to come to you.  If he asks for your phone number, don't ask him for his. That way he'll have to be the one to call or text first. If the two of you are hanging out and having a good time, let him ask you out for a second date. Every situation is different, so if you think he's interested but he doesn't ask you out, go ahead and ask him out instead. If you want to attract a top-tier mate, you need to know your worth. By valuing yourself, you’ll show him that he should value you too.  Show him that you're confident by accepting compliments without deflecting them and talking about your accomplishments. Just as you know your strengths, you should also be humble about your weaknesses. You don’t have to tell him what they are, but don’t act like you’re too good for him. Make him feel like he’s number one by telling him all the things you like about him. Building up his ego will make him want to have you around. Try saying something like, “I love how you’re always working to better yourself,” or “It’s so much fun to watch you work the room at a party.” Appeal to his inner provider by making him feel like you need him. Ask him to help you with small things that you have a hard time with or don’t enjoy doing, like opening a jar that’s stuck or calling to make reservations at a restaurant. There’s no need to pretend you’re weak to attract your alpha male. You can be strong and confident while still needing him. Think of things that play to his strengths, then ask for his help. Alpha males like to make decisions, but that doesn't mean they'll always want to be the one with a plan. Let him know a few things you'd like to do, then sit back and enjoy as he makes it happen.  For instance, if there's a movie you really want to see, let him know you'd be interested in going to the movies for a date. Spontaneous dates can keep things fresh. If the weather's nice, ask him if he'd like to eat lunch in a nearby park. Most alpha males enjoy regularly trying something they've never done before, just to keep life interesting and challenging. Take a day trip to a nearby museum neither of you have ever visited, try out a new restaurant, or hike to a hidden waterfall just outside of town.
Summary: Give him time to make the first move. Be confident but not cocky. Flatter his ego by complimenting him. Make him feel needed. Help him come up with fun date ideas. Try new things together.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Oil-requiring components vary from gun to gun, so check your gun manual for information about the specific areas that need oil on your particular firearm. If you don't have a manual, inspect the gun for the areas that have visible wear and apply the oil in those places.  Oil aids in gun preservation, and you should use the oil sparingly.  Be sure to oil the rails for the bolt and the bolt itself to prevent oxidation. Avoid getting oil around the housing and the firing pin, which can cause malfunctions and can prevent the gun from firing. If you accidentally got any oil on the wooden parts of your shotgun, immediately wipe the oil off with a clean, dry cloth. Gun oil can soften the wood, causing it to be more easily scratched and dented. Twist back on the end cap and then close the breach, fully reattaching the barrel back onto your shotgun. Visually inspect the exterior for any remaining dirty areas. If you spot any, wipe with a clean, lint-free cloth. Always wash your hands after handling the gun and cleaning supplies. Always do this before you reload the gun. Open and close the action, shoulder the shotgun, and take a moment to aim it at something and make sure everything feels right. Cloth cases will absorb the oil that you just applied to the gun, which could lead to rust. Put a packet of moisture desiccant in the case with the gun. This will help cut down on any moisture build-up while your gun is being stored.
Summary: Oil the components requiring lubrication. Wipe down the surface with a clean cloth to remove excess oil. Open the breach and put the barrel back on. Do a quick test for functionality. Store your gun in a hardshell case instead of a cloth case.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Since it can be difficult to find investors, many small business owners look to close friends and family to raise at least their initial seed money. It's easier to find investors if you've gotten your business off the ground than it is if you've only got an idea. If you have a friend or family member who is interested in any significant investment, treat it as a business transaction – not a gift. Put it in writing with a legal contract or investment agreement. Any social media accounts you have can be used to help you find investors. Set up business-specific pages and accounts, and encourage friends and family to connect to them and share them on their networks.  Use posts not only to talk about your idea but also demonstrate the need for the product or service you want to offer. Include news and information about the neighborhood where you want your business to be located. Encourage your friends and followers to share posts about your business and help you spread the word. When you set up dedicated social media accounts for your business, help spread the word by giving people who a reason to follow along. Contests and exclusive discounts will get more people on board. For example, if you're planning to open a coffee shop, you might offer a free cup of coffee to the first 20 people who like and share a post. Many products and services lend themselves well to crowdfunding through a website such as Kickstarter or GoFundMe. Unique rewards at different levels of sponsorship can help attract micro-investors who are interested in supporting the next great idea. Crowdfunding also helps market your product or service. If you fund your project through contributions from 100 people, those are 100 people who are interested in your idea and want to see it succeed. Each of those 100 people will potentially tell their friends about your product or service.
Summary:
Talk to friends and family. Drum up interest on social media. Provide incentives for likes or follows. Try crowdfunding sites.
