article: Lacking fluency in the Spanish language isn’t a dealbreaker. Cuba is located near the U.S., so there are plenty of English speakers. It still pays to master conversational Spanish, including words for locations, directions, and food. Make flashcards to help you study. A useful translation option is Google Translate. Open the app, then select the Spanish dictionary to download it before you go. At the very least, use it when you get stuck while trying to communicate. Print out some basic maps of Havana and anywhere else you travel. Jot down notes on directions to anywhere you want to go. Otherwise, try downloading a map app that lets you download maps to view while offline. For example, Maps.Me is an app that lets you store maps on your phone. The Cuban government has set up a few wi-fi hotspots. These are often in parks or around tourist areas, such as hotels. You won’t be able to connect to the Internet in your hotel or casa. Plan on staying offline for the majority of your trip. To access Wi-Fi in Cuba, you have to buy time from hotels. They provide a card that you use to log into the network. Food is served at most casa particulars for a small fee of about 5 CUCs. You get a large helping of authentic Cuban food without having to go outside. Contact the house owner to arrange this. Paladars are basically Cuban restaurants, and the largest ones require reservations. Look up the restaurant information before you travel. Call them to make your reservation. The cheapest way to do this is through Skype.  Successful paladars have a lot of English speakers, so language issues are uncommon. Expect to leave a 10% tip at any paladar. Restaurants cancel your reservations if they don’t hear from you! Plan on letting your casa owner or hotel employee know. They will call and confirm the reservations. Havana is a busy city and hotels and restaurants know plans change. Always call ahead to confirm a reservation.

Place feeders near bright flowers to attract many hummingbirds. Elevate your feeder about 5 ft (1.5 m) off the ground. Hang multiple feeders to prevent birds from fighting over spots to feed."
article: If your hummingbird feeder is in a location that receives full sun throughout the day, heat from the sun will get trapped in the feeder and raise the internal temperature. This will cause the fluids to ferment and spoil. Hot nectar could also potentially burn the hummingbirds’ small mouths. Hummingbirds won't come to a feeder full of fermented nectar, so they're likely to go hungry in this case. Make sure to account for your view when you choose a place for the feeder. It's a treat to watch these iridescent birds as they hover and drink. So, place the feeder within view of a window. Because you'll need frequent access to it for cleaning and refilling, the location should be easily accessible, and not too high for you to reach. However, since feeders often have 5-6 birds buzzing around them, don't hang the feeder in a high-traffic area (e.g. in front of your home's main entrance). Hummingbirds love bright colors and naturally flock to them. For example, if you hang your feeder near a planter full of brightly-colored flowers, it'll attract many more birds than if you were to hang it in front of a drab beige-colored wall. If you're hanging the feeder in a tree or on a pole in your yard, choose a location near a flower bush or a plant with brightly-colored leaves.  If you don't have any flowers in your yard, consider filling a planter with bright flowers to draw in hummingbirds. While hummingbirds tend to favor the color red, they'll come to any bright flower. At this height, you’ll be able to see the feeder easily and won’t have to stretch or stoop to change the water. This height will also situate your feeder out of the reach of small children, pets, and pests (like chipmunks or squirrels) that could otherwise knock down or break the feeder. To afford your hummingbirds some protection from predators and give them a sense of security, locate the feeder within 10–15 feet (3.0–4.6 m) of a tree, bush, or another natural cover. Male hummingbirds can be aggressive and territorial about feeding and roosting locations, so by hanging more than 1 feeder, you'll ensure that more birds can enjoy the nectar. Locate 3-4 feeders out of sight from one another. This way, many birds can feed at once. For example, try hanging 1 feeder in front of the main entrance to your home, 1 off of a rear deck, and 1 on a second-story window.

article:
Some companies have begun making felt tip pens that can detect counterfeit bills. Draw a line or an “x” on suspicious bill to see if it leaves a mark, which can indicate a counterfeit bill.  Be aware that detector pens are not foolproof, but work in many cases because their active ingredient, which is an iodine solution, reacts with wood-based paper.  Realize that a detector pen may leave a pastel mark on an authentic bill and that it will fade within a day. This can help you identify which bills you've checked. Purchase counterfeit detector pens at most large retailers or office supply stores. They generally cost around $5 and can check up to 3,000 bills. If you work with a lot of notes, you may want to consider getting a machine that detects counterfeit bills. Running bills through these machines can help you ensure the authenticity of your money in a quick and effective manner.  Recognize that there is a wide variety of counterfeit detecting machines a broad range of price points. Buy the type of machine according to the type of work for which you need it. Machines can do everything from detecting watermarks and other features with UV-light to detecting magnetic strips and magnifying micro-printing feature.  Place a stack of bills into the machine and it will self-feed and alert you if it discovers Buy your machine at a large retailer or office supply store. You can ask other businesses or colleagues if they have any suggestions on good models. Most notes in circulation have features, such as watermarks or security threads, that are visible when viewed under ultraviolet light. If you work with large sums of cash or prefer to not mark bills, consider getting a UV-light to scan for counterfeit notes. Choose a model appropriate to your needs. You may want to consider self-feed scanners or hand-held UV-lights that illuminate security features. You can buy UV scanners at many large retailers and office supply stores. If you are truly unsure if a note is authentic after looking at it or scanning it, take it to your local bank. Most banks have personnel and devices that can see if the notes are counterfeit.  Explain to the bank manager that you are concerned money you received is counterfeit but are not sure how to tell. Ask if the branch can verify the money and then follow any suggestions the staff has if they discover fake notes. Remember to be kind and provide any information you can about the origin of the notes.
