Q: While they aren't the most expensive bags comparatively, Coach bags can still be anywhere between $200-$600. Even the used bags can retail for a hefty price. If a new Coach bag is selling for a cheap price, that's a good sign that it's a fake. Keep in mind the actual pricing of the bag you want and compare it the one you're considering buying. Are they similar? If a vendor avoids your questions, looks guilty, or gives vague answers when you ask about the authenticity of a bag, it's a good sign that you should be wary. Ask if they accept returns. If they don't, they may not be credible.  If the vendor has a lot of the same type of bag, this is also a red flag as it usually means they're replicas. Inspect the material in this instance. Are the bags made of fabric or cheap leather? If the seller is advertising Coach bags that are labeled as "designer-inspired" or "Grade A replicas", they're fake. This terminology is used so that the producer of the fake bags won't get in legal trouble. Mall vendors and street vendors, as well as online auction sites (such as eBay), will often sell fakes. Department stores are more likely to have genuine Coach bags in the purse section. If the bag holds up and wears nicely, it shows that the bag is authentic or at the very least well-made. A broken, torn bag by the end of a few weeks shows that the bag is most likely a fake. Coach bags are made from quality materials, so frayed threads, cracked leather, and warping from use are going to take a while -- probably a few years.
A: Determine if the deal is too good to be true. Pay close attention to the vendor. Look at the wear once the bag is broken-in.

Q: It’s best to start small when quitting caffeine. Begin by cutting out one caffeinated drink per day. Do this for a week. If you’re missing the ritual of a morning coffee or soda, think about replacing your caffeinated beverage with its decaffeinated counterpart. Then cut out a second caffeinated beverage per day and do it for a week. Continue this pattern until you have stopped drinking all caffeine. Alternatively, if you believe that you can stop it at once, try it out and if that does not work out - simply decrease your daily intake of caffeine. Allocate your caffeine money in the beginning of the week, so that if you over-consume it in the beginning of the week, you will have nothing to fall back onto in the end of the week. If you allocate less and less caffeine money as you go on, you will gradually reduce your intake. Set aside one day - possibly a Sunday - when you are not on the go for a detox day. Make sure on the day you have chosen to detox you have no pressing commitments or tasks. Keep your calendar empty for at least the first three weeks after giving up caffeine.  Give your body plenty of rest, and include a healthy intake of fresh fruits, vegetables, and consume a daily multivitamin which includes B vitamins as this will produce a similar effect to what you would otherwise gain from caffeinated products. Regular intake of water will help your internal organs to detox and will keep your body steadily hydrated. Caffeine is a diuretic which can cause people to lose fluid. The effects are mild for people who consume caffeine in moderation but for those that are addicted or for those that drink mostly energy drinks, this will lead to dehydration. Too much caffeine along with not enough water intake can easily lead to dehydration which causes numerous health issues. Try for eight 8 oz glasses of water per day. Find someone to quit with you. If you can't find that kind of support, promise to someone whom you love and respect that you will quit caffeine. Thus, consuming caffeine in any form will make you break your promise, and this will provide you with another incentive to stay on the wagon. Even just telling a friend that you are trying to cut out caffeine can help to provide you with some support. Try sending a daily text or calling a friend daily to update them on your progress.
A: Start phasing out caffeine. Make it hard to drink caffeine. Allow lots of time for rest and recuperation. Drink water. Don't go at it alone.

Q: What is competing for your dog's attention? Is it a squirrel? Is it a vacuum cleaner? A particular tempting pile to roll in? When you are first introducing a behavior, start in a familiar, low distraction place, like your house.  Keep your lessons short (5 minutes or less). Your dog has a small brain and won’t be able to concentrate for very long. Never train more than one dog at a time. Dogs are easily distracted, and another dog in the area doesn't help your efforts. Dogs always display different behavior when they are around other dogs (whether they are a familiar dog to them or not). They might end up playing with the other dog more than they are listening to you. Another option (if available) is enrolling the dog in “fun” classes, where dog training experts will help you with a stubborn dog.  You could also hire a dog trainer to come to your home.  Check with your local veterinarian for references. Try using a clicker with the dog. You need to associate your clicker with a treat, so your dog knows that a reward is waiting when you use the clicker and say a command. Maybe the dog feels like he is being bullied and has shut himself away from any input (this is especially common in sensitive dogs, and dog breeds that are usually sensitive).  Maybe the dog is slower by nature (some dogs are just not as active as some other dogs; if you have a dog that usually moves slowly, don’t expect him to do fast tricks.) Consider whether the dog is lazy or sick (dogs, like people, will be less motivated to do things on hot days, for example, or when they are not feeling well). Be honest about whether the dog simply does not understand what the owner wants (some things, like sentences, can seem very clear to humans but are not understandable to a dog despite a dog's best intentions). Maybe there is nothing in it for the dog (dogs, like humans, do things because there is something to be gained from it; dogs expect less - a treat, ball or a pat is to them what a whole salary is to a human).
A: Train the dog in a place with low distraction. Enroll the dog in obedience classes. Try to figure out why the dog is remaining stubborn.

Q: Many search options and phone books divide companies alphabetically. Naming your company with a letter at the beginning of the alphabet ensures its placement near the beginning of the list. Long names are harder to remember. A name in a foreign language might also be harder to remember, unless it is very short. Open your company up for future growth. Resist the urge to use your geographic region in your name, because your company may expand later. Rochester Paint Supply might limit you to only that area. Ask family and friends for their opinion and perhaps give them several choices. You can also hire a market research company to form an objective focus group. Seriously consider their input before making a final decision. You can find market research consultants through a local chapter of the American Marketing Association.
A:
Brainstorm a name that starts near the beginning of the alphabet. Keep the name short. Don't use geographic regions. Test the name.
