Secrets
To Make People Like You by Dr. Nerd
1) Use Positive Non-Verbal Communication
I
can’t stress enough how important non-verbal communication is when it comes to
making a positive connection with somebody. The vast majority of our
communication isn’t conveyed through our words, but through our bodies, our
tone of voice, even the speed at which we talk.
2) Get Them Talking About Themselves
Cold
hard truth: we’re all narcissistic to some degree. Even when we may not feel
like we’re the hottest thing since World War III, we do like to believe that
our inner lives and thoughts are fascinating. Just take a look at our social
networks as we fill our days with Facebook status updates, Instagraming
everything and tweeting about every aspect of our lives. We’re playing to an
audience, even if that audience is just the people from high-school that we’ve
reconnected with because we wanted to see if they were still hot and/or single.
3)
Validate Them
Another
key psychological component to building rapport with someone is to remember
that we instinctively like people who like us. Being liked makes us feel good,
after all. So one of the easiest ways to indicate that we like someone is to
let them know we think they’re fascinating and that they have a lot to offer.
So we help encourage that feeling by validating them as we talk. After all,
validation from others can be incredibly powerful.
4) Have Stories
Want
to impress someone and make them think you’re fun to hang around with? Have
stories to tell. Storytelling is a primal part of social cohesion, a way of
bonding that’s been a part of the human experience since we developed language.
Sharing a little about yourself is a
powerful technique, one that inspires trust and reciprocity from the people
you’re talking to. When somebody’s been afraid that they’ve been talking about
themselves too much, being able to share a little about yourself – especially an
amusing or entertaining story – is a way of giving back and letting them know
that you’re comfortable with them.

Vampires
"There are such beings as vampires, some of us have evidence that they exist. Even had we not the proof of our own unhappy experience, the teachings and the records of the past give proof enough for sane peoples."
Bram Stoker's Dracula - Chapter 18: MINA HARKER'S JOURNAL - 30 September
The vampires are monsters that has both thrilled and terrified people for hundreds of years, from sophisticated Parisian theatre-goers to Eastern European peasants. Today the myth of vampires is omnipresent as one of the majors horror motifs in arts, literature and music.
Definition
Vampires are mythical or folkloric creatures, typically held to be the re-animated corpses of human beings and said to subsist on human and/or animal blood (hematophagy), often having unnatural powers, heightened bodily functions, and/or the ability to physically transform. Some cultures have myths of non-human vampires, such as demons or animals like bats, dogs, and spiders. Vampires are often described as having a variety of additional powers and character traits, extremely variable in different traditions, and are a frequent subject of folklore, cinema, and contemporary fiction.
Vampire by Clyde Caldwell Vampire by Clyde Caldwell
Vampirism is the practice of drinking blood from a person/animal. Vampires are said to mainly bite the victim's neck, extracting the blood from the carotid artery. In folklore and popular culture, the term generally refers to a belief that one can gain supernatural powers by drinking human blood. The historical practice of vampirism can generally be considered a more specific and less commonly occurring form of cannibalism. The consumption of another's blood (and/or flesh) has been used as a tactic of psychological warfare intended to terrorize the enemy, and it can be used to reflect various spiritual beliefs.
Jiangshi Wikipedia
A jiangshi (chiang-shih in Wade–Giles), also known as a Chinese "hopping" vampire or zombie, is a type of reanimated corpse in Chinese legends and folklore. "Jiangshi" is read goeng-si in Cantonese, cương thi in Vietnamese, gangshi in Korean and kyonshī in Japanese. It is typically depicted as a stiff corpse dressed in official garments from the Qing Dynasty, and it moves around by hopping, with its arms outstretched. It kills living creatures to absorb their qi, or "life force", usually at night, while in the day, it rests in a coffin or hides in dark places such as caves.[1] Jiangshi legends have inspired a genre of jiangshi films and literature in Hong Kong and East Asia.

吸血鬼與德古拉展覽
吸血鬼與德古拉的傳說是歷久不衰的題材。國立歷史博物館與維也納藝術史博物館等多個國外收藏機構合作，推出德古拉傳奇特展，細究吸血鬼的歷史與傳說魅力。
國立歷史博物館、時藝多媒體與雙瑩文創為揭開吸血鬼疑雲，特別合作舉辦「德古拉傳奇—吸血鬼歷史與藝術特展」。展出期間自7月5日起到10月5日。
這次特展展品來自維也納藝術史博物館、埃斯特哈齊家族基金會與布拉姆．斯托克典藏等十餘個收藏機構，近百件珍貴展品。
特展的第一區「吸血疑雲」，藉由史料、兵器與甲冑等藝術文物，詮釋德古拉如何從驍勇善戰、威嚇施暴的王族，逐步與民間流傳的惡魔、蝙蝠、吸血鬼等異相產生關聯性。第二區「尋找真愛」，運用知名歌劇或戲劇女主角的戲服，詮釋女吸血鬼形象。
第三區「巢穴窺秘」由義大利建築師建構出吸血鬼的家，引領觀眾深入吸血鬼的世界；第四區「吸血效應」，透過書籍、繪畫、電影等當代創作，欣賞吸血鬼題材在文創領域的漣漪。
特展展出維也納藝術史博物館珍藏的「弗拉德．德古拉」（Vlad Dracula）油畫肖像，這幅肖像幾已成德古拉的標準形象；另外還展出一本1897年初版的「德古拉」小說，非常特別。
國立歷史博物館館長張譽騰表示，期望吸血鬼展覽能吸引更多青少年觀眾，從歷史與藝術的角度認識吸血鬼。他也說，吸血鬼展覽內容陰森神秘，是炎炎夏日「清涼」好去處。
