Knot for Karate Belt

How to blow: a bubble out of gum

1. Chew it vigorously until you feel that it's rubbery and smooth, rather than sticky, sandy and rough. Saliva helps a lot in this process, so go ahead and just mix the two of them.

2. When you feel that it's nice and firm, use your tongue to roll the gum into a ball and put it in the middle of your tongue.

3. Press the ball between your tongue and the roof of your mouth to make it flat, a bubblegum pancake, if you will.

4. Gently conduct this pancake and set it vertically on the back part of your front teeth, which should now be closed.

5.Slightly open your mouth and use your tongue to push the central part of the pancake out of your mouth between your teeth.

6. Your mouth should not be completely open, nor your teeth completely closed.

7. Still holding the border of the pancake between your front teeth, gently wrap your slightly moistened lips around the part of the gum sticking out of your mouth, and start blowing very slowly.

How should you tie your Karate belt? Here is the answer.

How do you tie your shoes?



KNOT 1.

http://www.fieggen.com/shoelace/ianknot.htm
Here is an interesting way to tie your shoe,for me anyways, I do the bunny ear knot.

The way to show the steps in how tie a shoe lace, is much harder that than just doing it I have learned it is crazy hard here i am trying different techniques and I am pretty sure that these are to simple but i am making it really hard or something?

KNOT 2.

Step 1:
Hold one end of each shoelace in each hand.
Step 2:
Cross them, making an X.
Step 3:
Pass one end of the shoelace under the other.
Step 4:
Pull tight.
Step 5:
Fold one shoelace in half while holding laces taut.
Step 6:
Wrap the other end around the folded end.
Step 7:
Grasp it in the middle after pulling it around the folded end.
Step 8:
Bend it into a flat loop and pull through, making a bow.
Step 9:
Repeat with other shoe.

KNOT 3.

Step 1:
Cross the two shoestring ends over each other once and then loop one end under the other to make the first basic knot of a bow.
Step 2:
In your right hand hold the right shoelace, with palm down, in your pinky, ring and middle fingers.
Step 3:
In your left hand hold the left shoelace, with palms down, in your pinky, ring and middle fingers.
Step 4:
Position your index fingers and thumbs in gun position.
Step 5:
With your right hand place your index finger over the right shoelace and your thumb under the right shoelace. Your hand will be spinning towards you and the string will rest on top of your index finger and thumb.
Step 6:
With your left hand spin your thumb away from you over the shoelace and your index finger under the shoelace. Your hand will spin away from you and the string will rest on top of your index finger and thumb.
Step 7:
With your right index finger on the bottom and right thumb on top grab the left shoestring between your left finger and thumb.
Step 8:
Hook the right string with your left index finger between the right index finger and thumb.
Step 9:
Pull strings in opposite directions.

KNOT 4-5-6
