Before leaving for a date, know the exact plans for the evening and make sure a parent or a friend knows these plans and what time to expect your home.

Similarly, if you leave party with someone you do not know well, make sure you tell another person you are leaving and with whom. Ask a friend to call and make sure you arrive home safely. No matter how good the person appears to you, trust your inner instincts (直觉).

Hillary Clinton, 59, with her famous "I'm in, and I'm in to win" 2008 Race, began her e-mail to supporters, saying "I want you to join me not for the campaign but for a conversation about the future of our country. Let's talk, let's chat." Mrs. Clinton said that she would focus on "practical changes" in foreign, domestic, and national security policy, such as finding "a right end" to the Iraq war, expanding health insurance, pursuing greater energy independence and strengthening Social Security and Medicare, which satisfies many American people.

President Bill Clinton 1eft office in 2000 after two terms marked by economical expansion and a series of official examinations of his personal life and the Clintons' business dealings.
