[ "Hold the coin under cold water. Keep the coin under the running water for about 1 minute on each side. Gently rub the coin between your fingers to help loosen some of the dirt and grime on the surface. Set the coins on a soft towel when you’re finished rinsing them.\nBe sure to plug your sink before cleaning old coins in your sink so none of them slip down the drain.\nRunning water helps break apart any loose dirt that’s on the surface of your coins. <img> Rub the coins with a soapy water solution. Fill a small bowl with warm water from your faucet and mix in a squirt of dish soap. Dip each coin in the soapy water one at a time and keep it submerged. Rub your thumb and index finger over the coin to help the soap break apart dirt or grit.\nIf you don’t see any dirt or grime coming off of your coin, let it soak for about 5 minutes before trying to scrub it again.\nSoapy water is a great solution for removing surface dirt without damaging or scratching your coins. <img> Brush the coins with a soft-bristled toothbrush or a paper towel. Keep your coins submerged in the soapy water solution while you brush them. Gently scrub the face of the coin until it turns shiny again, which may take a couple of minutes. Rinse the coin off with clean water every 30 seconds to check for any spots you missed. When you’re finished, give the coin one final rinse.\nTo scrape away buildup in tight areas, gently break it apart with the end of a toothpick.\nAvoid using a toothbrush on collectible or antique coins since it could leave behind small scratches. Just stick to rubbing soapy water onto each coin with your fingers. <img> Dry off the coins with a towel. Pat each coin gently with a lint-free towel to absorb all of the moisture. Make sure that each coin is completely dry so the metal doesn’t wear away over time.\nPatting the coins will allow you to avoid creating micro-scratches with the material you are wiping it with. <img> ", "Scrub pocket change with baking soda and vinegar. Dip your coins in white distilled vinegar and let them soak for about 30 seconds. Take one coin out of the vinegar at a time and immediately sprinkle a pinch of baking soda on the surface. Rub the baking soda into the face of each coin with your fingers to scrub away the dirt and grime. Then, just rinse all your coins under clean water and pat them dry.\nVinegar and baking soda create a bubbling reaction that helps loosen dirt and grime.\nBaking soda is an abrasive, so it may leave scratches on your coin. Only use vinegar and baking soda on coins that aren’t valuable or collectible. <img> Clean copper coins in a vinegar and salt solution. Dissolve 1 tsp (7 g) of table salt in a bowl with ⁄4 cup (59 ml) of white distilled vinegar. Drop your coins into the mixture and let them sit for about 5 minutes. Pull the coins out of the liquid and gently wipe them with a paper towel to break apart the tarnish and dark spots.\nSalt and vinegar create an acidic solution that helps quickly dissolve the copper oxide spots on your coins faster than if you soaked them in water. <img> Brush off tough tarnish with lemon juice and salt. Sprinkle table salt onto the surface of each coin and add a few drops of lemon juice to make a thick paste. Use a soft-bristled toothbrush to gently scrub each of the coin’s faces for 1–2 minutes. After that, just rinse all your coins with cool water and dry them off with a soft towel.\nLemon juice has citric acid that reacts with the tarnish to remove it. The added salt abrasive helps scrub the tarnish away even better.\nSince salt is really abrasive, it could leave scratches on antique or collectible coins. <img> Dissolve tarnish with a hydrogen peroxide soak. Fill a small bowl with enough hydrogen peroxide to submerge your coins. Put a few of your coins into the solution at a time and let them soak for up to 24 hours so the tarnish has a chance to loosen up. Rinse your coins under cold running water when you’re finished and pat them dry with a soft towel.\nHydrogen peroxide also helps sterilize and disinfect your coins. <img> Let coins soak in cola to dissolve the tarnish. Fill a small cup or bowl with any type of cola and submerge your coins. Let the coins sit for at least 5 minutes before taking them out and rinsing them off. Lightly rub the surface with a paper towel to help polish your coins and make them shine again.\nCola contains phosphoric acid that helps tarnish break down quickly. <img> Try scrubbing your coins with ketchup. Squirt enough ketchup on each coin’s face to cover it. Work the ketchup into each coin with a soft-bristled toothbrush for about 1–2 minutes per side. When you finish scrubbing, hold your coins under running water to rinse them off.\nThe acids in ketchup can help dissolve tarnish to help clean silver and copper coins. <img> Dip coins in a commercial cleaner solution for heavy tarnish. Wear latex gloves and safety glasses when you use a cleaner solution since it’s very acidic. Hold 1 coin at a time between your fingers and submerge it in the cleaning solution for about 5 seconds. Take the coin out of the solution and immediately rinse the residue off with clean water.\nThe acidic cleaner strips the grime and tarnish off the surface to make your coin look shiny. <img> ", "Ask a professional coin grader to see if you should clean antique coins. Look for a coin dealer in your area and bring your coins in to have them evaluated. Since the discoloration and patina caused by exposure to air can actually add to the coin’s overall value, wait until you hear from an expert before doing anything.\nEven the smallest scratch from wiping the coin can reduce its value, so always get an expert opinion before you clean.\n\nGet your coin graded so you can properly determine its condition and value. <img> Wipe surface dirt off with a cotton swab soaked in acetone. Dip the end of your cotton swab in acetone so it’s damp. Carefully wipe the cotton swab over the face of the coin so you coat the entire surface. Go over the coin again with the dry end of the cotton swab to pick up any residual dirt or liquid on the surface.\nAvoid pressing hard on the coin’s surface so you don’t cause any damage. <img> Store your coins in hard plastic holders. Set your coin inside of the plastic holder and snap it closed so nothing can get on the surface. Avoid opening the container after putting your coin away so it doesn’t get exposed to the environment around it.\nKeep your coins in an album so you can easily look through them. If you have really valuable coins, keep them in a safe to protect them. <img> " ]

[ "Set up your computer. If you are setting up a new desktop computer, there are a few steps you will need to go through before you can start using it. After finding a place near your desk to put the tower, you will need to connect your monitor, keyboard, and mouse, as well as plug the tower into a power source.\nThese are the only things required to be connected to the computer in order to use it. You can add more peripherals and accessories later.\nIf you are using a new laptop, you will have significantly less to set up. Plug your laptop into a power source to ensure that it is charged, and then press the power button to turn it on. <img> Create an account. If it's your first time turning on a brand new computer, you'll usually be asked to create an account. This account will hold all of your documents, pictures, downloaded files, and any other files that you create.\nWhen creating any type of account, you'll need to come up with a strong password to protect your personal information. Even if you're the only one who will be using the computer, you'll still want to protect it with a password to prevent hackers and thieves from accessing your data.\nIf you're aren't asked to set up a new account, you may already have an account on the computer. If the computer is at your workplace or school, you'll usually be assigned a username and password by your administrator. Contact your work or school's IT department to find out which username and password you should be using. <img> Get familiar with the desktop. The desktop is the main work area of your computer. Your desktop appears every time you log into your account, and contains icons and shortcuts to your programs and files. The desktop will look and function differently depending on which operating system (such as Windows or macOS) you're using:\nIf you're using Windows 10, you'll have a horizontal bar at the bottom of the screen—this is called the Taskbar, and it's where you'll find the Windows Start menu (sometimes just called the \"Windows menu\" or \"Start menu.\" This icon looks like a flag made of 4 small squares, and it'll be at the bottom-left corner of the screen. Click this icon to find the applications (apps) on your computer.\nWindows 8 has replaced the Start menu with the Start screen. It functions much the same way, but is fundamentally different in the way it displays information.\nIf you have a Mac, you'll see a horizontal bar with icons at the bottom-center part of the screen. This is called the Dock, and it's where you'll find your apps, folders, files, and quick shortcuts. To find your apps, click the Launchpad icon on the Dock—this looks like a rocket on some Macs, and like 9 multicolored squares on others.\nAlso on your Mac is the menu bar, which is the horizontal bar running along the top of your screen. The menu bar is where you'll find the controls for the currently-active app, as well as the Apple menu, which is represented by an Apple icon. The Apple menu is where you'll find the settings and preferences for your Mac. <img> Learn mouse and keyboard basics. The mouse and keyboard are your primary means of interacting with your computer. Take some time to get familiar with how they work and how you can interact with your operating system and programs.\n\nLearn how to use a mouse to navigate. Your mouse allows for pinpoint navigation and control, and is necessary for a wide variety of activities. There are a variety of mouse types, and some have more buttons than others.\nA mouse on a Windows PC usually has two buttons—the left button is your primary mouse button, while the right mouse button generally opens menus and features. You'll usually need to double-click (click twice quickly) to open files and folders.\nA mouse on a Mac tends to have only one button. If you are used to using Windows and switching to a Mac, this may be confusing, especially when you're told you need to \"right-click\" something. To right-click on a Mac, you'll press and hold the Command key as you click your mouse button.\nIf you're using a laptop that has a trackpad (a finger-controlled mouse) rather than a separate mouse, you can move the cursor around by dragging your finger on the pad. Some trackpads have separate buttons you can click, while others don't appear to have buttons at all. On a trackpad, you'll usually click by double-tapping, or by pressing hard enough to click the entire pad with one finger. <img> Open an application. Even if you built your computer yourself, there will be some preinstalled applications and utilities that you can use without having to install anything new. If you are using Windows, click the Windows Start menu (that's the Windows icon at the bottom-left corner) to browse through your available programs. If you are using a Mac, click the Launchpad (the 9 multicolored squares or rocket icon) on the Dock. <img> Find your files. Both Windows and macOS have special apps you can use to browse, open, and manage your files. When you open your file browser, you'll see your files separated into special folders—these folders have names that describe the types of files inside. For example, your Documents folder is where you'll usually find the files you create in Microsoft Office, Pages, and other apps, while the Pictures or Photos folder is where you'll find your photos.\n\nWindows: The Windows file browser is called File Explorer. You can open it by clicking the folder icon on the Taskbar, or by pressing Windows key + E on the keyboard.\n\nmacOS: The Mac file browser is called Finder, and you can open it by clicking the two-toned smiley face icon on the left side of the Dock. <img> Install your first program. Installing software is a very common task on a computer, no matter what kind of computer you are using. The process is usually very straightforward, as most installers give clear instructions for each step. Both Windows and macOS now have their own easy-to-use \"stores\" that make it easy to find and install apps with no computer experience at all.\n\nWindows: If you're using Windows, you can use the Microsoft Store to browse for and install all types of apps. Some apps are free, while others cost money. You'll find the Microsoft Store in the Windows menu, but you can also open it by typing store into the Search bar and clicking Microsoft Store in the search results.\n\nmacOS: Your Mac has an app called App Store, which allows you to browse, search for, and install free and paid apps. Click the blue icon with a white \"A\" on the Dock to open the App Store.\nOnce you learn more about using your computer, you can start installing apps from places outside of the Microsoft Store and App Store. Both Windows and macOS have their own unique apps, and installing those apps is a little different on each operating system. <img> ", "Select files and text. You can use your mouse or keyboard shortcuts to select files on your computer and text on documents and website. Click and drag the mouse across the text you want to select, or press Ctrl + A (PC) or Cmd + A (Mac) to select everything in your current location. Once you've selected files or text, there are several different actions you can take. <img> Copy and paste. \"Copying\" a file or text leaves the original intact, while creating a copy on your computer's clipboard. You can then \"Paste\" the file or text elsewhere:\n\nWindows: To copy, press Ctrl + C. To paste, press Ctrl + V. You can also copy and paste by right-clicking on the selection with your mouse and selecting Copy or Paste from the menu.\n\nmacOS: Copy by pressing Cmd + C, and paste by pressing Cmd + V. You can also copy and paste by right-clicking (or by holding Cmd as you click) the selection with your mouse and selecting Copy or Paste from the menu. <img> Save and open files. Many programs such as word processors, photo editors, and more allow you to create and save documents and files. When working on a computer, it is wise to save often. You never know when the power might go out, costing you hours of unsaved work. Get in the habit of saving often, and if you are making major revisions to a file it might be wise to create a new copy. You can quickly save your work in most programs that allow saving by pressing Ctrl + S (Windows) or Cmd + S (macOS).\nYou will also usually find the option to save files in the File menu, which is usually at the top-left corner of the app (or the top-left corner of the screen, if you're using a Mac.\nIf you have a lot of important files on your computer, consider setting up a backup system. This will ensure that you have at least one extra copy of all your important files should something happen to your computer. Windows and macOS both have backup systems built into the operating system. <img> Find and sort your files. As you use your computer more and more, your personal collection of documents, media, and files may start to get a bit out of control. Take some time and organize your personal folders in File Explorer (Windows) or Finder (macOS). You can create new folders to help create a directory of easily-accessible information. <img> ", "Set up a connection. In order to connect to the internet, your computer will need to have access to an internet connection. This may come in the form of a wireless network, or you may need to connect your computer directly to your network's router or modem. All of this depends on how the network at your location is configured, and the capabilities of your computer.\n\nConnect your computer to a wireless (Wi-Fi) network. If your home, office, or school has a wireless network set up, you can use your computer to connect to it. Most laptops can connect to a wireless network without any fuss, while some desktops will need to have a wireless network card installed.\n\nA wired network connection can be faster and more stable. If your computer is physically close to your internet access point (router or modem), you might want to consider using an Ethernet cable to connect your computer to the network. This is much more viable with a desktop, since they are typically immobile. A wired connection will not experience interference like wireless network might, and transmission speeds are much faster. <img> Open a web browser. The web browser is the software that allows you to view webpages, watch online videos, download files, and do essentially everything else internet-related. All computers come with a browser installed by default—the default web browser in Windows is called Microsoft Edge, and it's represented by a small \"e\" icon. If you're using a Mac, the default web browser is Safari, and it's the compass icon. There are also several popular alternative browsers, including Google Chrome and Firefox. <img> Install an antivirus application. Both Windows and macOS come with built-in protection from viruses and other malware (bad apps). If you're new to the internet, it may be helpful to install additional antivirus protection to keep hackers and identity thieves out of your personal files. Some popular options are Malwarebytes, Avast, and AVG.\nWith an anti-virus program, you can scan any flash drives that you plug into your computer. <img> Browse safely when online. There is a lot of bad stuff on the internet, so be sure to stay safe while browsing. This means avoiding giving out personal information, only downloading from trusted sources, and steering clear of viruses, scams, and other illegal and dangerous activity. <img> Send an email. Emailing is one of the most common forms of communication these days, and knowing how to send an email is now an essential computer skill. You can set up a free email account with a variety of different services, and can be composing an email in just a few minutes. <img> Download a file. The internet is chock full of different types of files that you can download to your computer. Popular types of files include images, music, and programs. There are thousands of places to find files to download, and a variety of different ways to do so. <img> ", "Install a printer. If you're setting up a home office or are planning on using your computer for school, you're probably going to want to print sooner rather than later. Installing a printer on modern computers is incredibly straight forward—you'll usually just plug the computer in via USB to one of the available USB ports on the computer. Many printers are also wireless, which means that all you'll need to do is connect the printer to the same Wi-Fi or wired network as your computer. <img> Set up a home network. Networks allow multiple computers to interact with each other and share the same internet connection. Connecting all of your computers and devices can give you quick access to files across devices, allow anyone on the network to print on the shared printer, play games together, and much more. Setting up a network requires a router or network switch. This is a piece of hardware that all the devices will connect to, either via Ethernet or wirelessly. <img> Install a webcam or microphone. A webcam lets you video chat with friends and family around the globe through programs like Skype and Zoom. If you're using a modern laptop, you'll usually have a webcam that's already built in and ready to use! If not, you can buy a webcam from any computer or department store and plug it in to a USB port. [Image:Use a Computer Step 19 Version 3.jpg|center]] <img> Add speakers. While virtually all laptop computers have speakers built-in, desktop computers generally need external speakers or headphones in order for you to hear sound. Most computers have speaker connectors built-in that can be accessed on the back of the tower. Computer speakers are generally color-coded, so simply match the colored speaker plugs to the correct port. <img> Connect your computer to your TV. If your computer is located close to your TV, or you have a laptop that you can set nearby, you can turn your computer into a home theater machine by displaying the image on your TV. With the right cables, you can play your sound through your TV speakers or home theater system.\n\nConnect your Mac to a TV.\n\nConnect your laptop to a TV.\n\nConnect your desktop PC to a TV. <img> ", "Learn basic troubleshooting tips. Like anything electronic, your computer will occasionally encounter problems. Knowing some basic troubleshooting tips can help save you a lot of time and potentially money. You don't have to be an expert, but knowing what to try first can be very beneficial.\nThe first thing you should try whenever you are encountering a problem is restarting your computer. Believe it or not, this will resolve a large number of issues you are having with a program or function.\nTo restart your Windows PC, click the Windows Start menu, click the Power button (it looks like a circle with a vertical line at its top), and then select Restart.\nTo restart a Mac, click the Apple menu at the upper-left, select Restart…, and then click Restart to confirm.\n\nIf you are having connectivity problems when browsing the internet, resetting your connection may fix your problem. <img> Know how to recognize a virus. Viruses are destructive and invasive files that can pose a serious threat to your information and files. Viruses can slow a computer to a crawl, or cause you to lose everything you have stored. Most viruses can be avoided by practicing smart internet behavior.\nBesides viruses, adware and spyware can cause serious problems for your computer and your security. These are often installed alongside other programs, and can be very difficult to get rid of.\nYou'll often hear the word \"malware\" used to describe things like viruses, adware, and spyware. <img> Uninstall troublesome programs. As you add more and more programs to your computer, you'll find that there are some you use more than others. If you have old programs installed that you no longer use, they're taking space on your computer that could be used for other things. Certain programs may be running in the background as well, even if you're not using them, which can significantly impact your computer's performance. Regularly uninstalling programs you no longer use is a good way to maintain your computer's health.\n\nUninstall programs on a Mac.\n\nUninstall programs in Windows. <img> Clean out the dust to keep your computer running cool. Heat is your computer's worst enemy, and as it gathers dust it will start building up more heat. You can keep your computer running cool by regularly cleaning out the inside of the case with compressed air, and by vacuuming the outside. Try to clean your computer at least two times a year, more if you have pets or are a smoker. <img> Replace or upgrade your hardware. Sometimes your hardware will fail, or simply won't be up to the task you want. In cases like these, upgrading your desktop may save you from having to buy a new computer.

[ "Tan before 10:00 a.m. or after 4:00 p.m. to avoid a sunburn. The sun is the most powerful from mid-morning to late afternoon. While this might sound like the perfect time to tan, it’s too risky because your skin may burn. Instead, sun yourself in the early morning or late afternoon for the perfect tan.\nFor instance, plan to go out at 9:00 a.m. or 4:00 p.m. <img> Choose a spot with the least amount of cloud coverage. About 90% of the sun’s rays penetrate the clouds, so you should have no problem tanning. However, you’ll get more rays if you pick a spot with minimal cloud coverage. Look for the brightest area you can find. Additionally, stay away from shadows cast by trees, buildings, and fences.\nCheck the sky to see if any sunlight is penetrating the clouds. Additionally, look for shadows on the ground. If you see a shadow, move to another spot. <img> Apply an outdoor tanning lotion or oil if you’re using one. Tanning lotions help promote a bronzed look and may help you tan faster. It’ll also keep your skin moisturized. Look for a lotion that’s labeled for use on your skin tone. Then, massage the tanning lotion into your skin before you tan.\nLotion and oil work the same. However, you might prefer an oil if your skin tends to be dry because it's more moisturizing.\nRead and follow the directions on the label so you know you’re using your product correctly.\nSome tanning lotions have a low SPF, such as an SPF 8, that can help protect your skin as it tans. These are a great option because they’ll help you get the darker look you want with less skin damage.\nUsing an indoor tanning lotion outdoors may increase your risk of skin cancer because these lotions are designed to enhance UV rays. Keep in mind that there are more UV rays outdoors than in a tanning bed even on a cloudy day.\nAdditionally, don't use baby oil because it can tan your skin too quickly and cause damage.Tip: It’s best to wear a broad spectrum SPF 15 sunscreen even while you’re tanning. It will take you longer to get darker skin, but it’ll also protect your skin from damage. If you want a faster tan, look for a sunblock that just protects against UVB rays, since UVA rays are responsible for tanning. <img> Stretch out on a towel or lounge chair. You can start on your stomach or your back, depending on your preference. Elongate your body so that you’re less likely to have uneven patches. Additionally, spread out your arms and legs so they get maximum sun exposure.\nIf you’re bent at an angle or your arms are flat against your body, you’ll have areas of skin that remain pale. <img> Rotate your body so you tan evenly. Shift your arms and legs to ensure that each side is getting sun. Additionally, turn onto your sides and back to sun those areas, as well. Make sure your front and back each get the same amount of sun.\nFor instance, tan your front first, then turn onto your left side. Next, tan your back, followed by turning onto your right side. <img> Tan for 5-10 minutes on each side so you tan evenly. How long you can lay out will depend on how dark your skin naturally is. Set a timer so that you don’t tan for too long. Then, turn as soon as the timer dings.\nIf you have pale or light skin, stick to 5 minutes per side for a total of 20 minutes tanning.\nFor medium or dark skin, 10 minutes per side should be okay. This means you'll tan for a total of 40 minutes.\nIf you wear sunscreen, you can increase how long you’re outside. With an SPF 15 sunscreen, you can tan for about an hour total. This applies to most skin tones, aside from very pale skin that burns easily.Tip: Keep in mind that SPF 15 sunscreen lets you stay in the sun without burning 15 times as long as normal. That means that if you normally burn after 10 minutes in the sun, you could safely stay outside for a total of 150 minutes. <img> Build up your color by tanning every day for short periods of time. It's best to slowly build up your tan so that your skin is even and doesn't burn. While you're working on your tan, it's safe to go out every day as long as you don't stay out longer than about 20-30 minutes for light skin or 30-60 minutes for medium or dark skin.\nAfter you reach your desired shade, you can maintain your glow by tanning 2-3 times per week. Keep your tanning sessions the same length as when you were building your tan. <img> ", "Rinse off in the shower to remove lotion, sweat, and grime. If you're feeling sticky, rinse off in a cool or warm shower right after you tan. Use a mild soap or body wash to cleanse away any lotion, sweat, or dirt that’s stuck on your skin. After you rinse off the soap, pat yourself dry with a clean towel.\nDon’t take hot showers immediately after you tan because they can dry out your skin.\nIt’s best to avoid exfoliating after you tan because it will remove the top layer of skin, making your skin appear lighter. <img> Apply moisturizer to your skin after tanning to prevent dry skin. Squeeze a quarter-sized amount of lotion onto your hand, then slather it over your body. Massage the lotion into your skin to help it absorb. Add more lotion to your palm when necessary.\nPick a thicker moisturizer, like a cream. Look for one that has natural oils, shea butter, or cocoa butter for added moisture. Alternatively, try a lotion that's made to be used after sun exposure. However, avoid petroleum jelly because it can lock in heat.\nHydrated skin looks healthy and supple. <img> Drink 10 to 12 cups (2.4 to 2.8 L) of water daily to stay hydrated. Tanning can dry out your skin, but water rehydrates you from the inside. Make sure you’re drinking extra water every day while you’re tanning. This will help keep your skin looking youthful and hydrated.\nIf you’re also very active, you may need more water. If you’re not sure how much water to drink, talk to your doctor for the best advice. <img> Extend your tan by taking cool showers and moisturizing. Cool showers and moisturizer will keep your skin moist, which reduces flaking and peeling. When you shower, set the water on cool and keep it short. Then, apply an even layer of moisturizer over your entire body.\nConsider using an illuminating lotion in the morning to boost your glow. These work like regular lotions but leave your skin looking shiny. You can find an illuminating lotion at your favorite beauty supply store or online. <img> Care for a mild sunburn with a cool towel and aloe vera. If your skin is looking a little red, cool it down with a cool towel or a cool shower. Then, apply a thin layer of aloe vera gel over the sunburn to replenish lost moisture and help it heal faster. Additionally, drink a lot of water to help rehydrate your skin. While your skin is healing, stay out of the sun to prevent further damage.\nIf your sunburn hurts, take over-the-counter NSAIDs, such as ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin) or naproxen (Aleve). Just check with your doctor first. <img> ", "Wear sunglasses to protect your eyes from UV rays. Choose a pair of sunglasses that blocks UV rays. Put them on before tanning and while you’re spending time outdoors. This will protect you from vision loss and eye damage.\nTo prevent tan lines from your sunglasses, as well as signs of aging, wear SPF 30 sunscreen on your face and use a self-tanning cream to darken your face. If you prefer a natural tan on your face. Remove your sunglasses and close your eyes when you're tanning your front side. However, keep in mind that your eyelids only block about 25% of UV rays and you can get skin cancer on your eyelids.\nAs a bonus, you’ll also reduce your risk of wrinkles from squinting.\nThink of how cute you’ll look sunning yourself with the perfect pair of shades! <img> Apply a broad spectrum SPF 30 sunscreen when you aren’t tanning. Your tan is going to be ruined if you end up with a sunburn. Plus, excessive sun exposure is damaging to your skin. To protect yourself, apply sunscreen about 15 minutes before you go out. Then, reapply it as often as recommended on the bottle, which is typically every 2 hours.\nYou’ll need to reapply your sunscreen every hour if you’re swimming or sweating a lot. Make sure you dry off your skin with a towel before you put on more sunscreen so that it soaks into your skin.Did You Know? You need to apply about a shot glass worth of sunscreen over your entire body to ensure you’re fully protected. <img> Wear a hat and clothing to help protect your skin. Choose a hat with a brim, like a floppy hat or bucket hat. This protects both your scalp and your face. Additionally, wear loose clothing that covers as much skin as possible, like long-sleeves or pants. If it's too hot to wear this, choose lightweight clothing that covers as much of your body as is comfortable.\nFor instance, wear a cover up over your bathing suit, along with a floppy hat. <img> Take breaks in the shade when spending the day outdoors even if it's cloudy. While sunscreen helps you stay outside longer with less skin damage, it’s still wise to avoid being in the sun all day. Instead, move to the shade to take breaks from the sun. This is especially important while the sun is at its peak from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.\nFor instance, relax under a big umbrella or sit under a tree.\nWearing a wide-brimmed hat will also help you protect your face. <img> " ]

[ "Wiggle your tooth with your tongue. The great thing about using your tongue to loosen your tooth is that you can do it almost anywhere, no matter what. Try pushing your tooth back and forth; whatever you can do with your tongue that doesn't make your tooth hurt is fair game.\nYou may feel an itchy feeling at the base of your tooth, near the root. This is a sign that the tooth is getting ready to come out. <img> Use a finger to move the tooth a little more. Each day, using a clean finger, you can gently wiggle the loose tooth. This will help the tooth gradually come out naturally. Don’t try to force the tooth to move, however.\nMake sure to wash your hands well with soap and warm water before trying this method. <img> Try biting into crunchy foods. Another way to get your loose tooth out is simply by enjoying a normal, healthy snack! Apples or pears make excellent choices because of their tough skins and crisp texture.\nIf your tooth is very loose, it might be difficult to bite into food with it. However, biting with other teeth and then chewing can still help to loosen it.\nIf the tooth is not very loose and you bite hard into something, there might be some pain. Be careful until you can tell how it feels to bite with the tooth. <img> Brush your teeth. When a tooth is really loose, even pushing on it just a little bit can make it fall out. Sometimes, even brushing your teeth is enough to make the tooth fall out (or make it looser). Brush your teeth as normal (at least twice a day), being sure to go lightly on the loose tooth.\nAlways brush your teeth for at least 2 minutes and be sure to clean each tooth. <img> Grasp the tooth with gauze. You can tug at the tooth to help loosen it, even if it isn’t ready to come out on its own, or if you don’t want to pull it. Using some sterile gauze and your fingers, grasp the tooth and gently tug or wiggle it. \nIf you do want to pull the tooth, you can use this same method, by giving the tooth a quick twist as you tug at it. The gauze can also help soak up any blood.\nYou can also apply a small amount of oral anesthetic to the tooth and gum area before tugging at it if you are worried about it hurting. <img> Try waiting. If your tooth just won't seem to come out, it may not quite be ready to fall out, so be patient. If your loose tooth isn't hurting you, distracting you, or getting in the way of your other teeth, you have no reason to worry about waiting.\nUsually, your baby teeth fall out in the order that they came in, starting around age six or seven. However, teeth can fall out in a different order and at different times. Your dentist will examine your teeth and answer any questions you might have about losing your teeth. <img> Don't force a tooth that won't come out. Generally, it's a bad idea to try to remove a tooth that's slightly loose but not ready to fall out. Forcing a tooth to come out can hurt and often leads to lots of bleeding, and possibly infection. If a tooth is forced out before the adult tooth is ready to emerge behind it, there can be problems in the future, such as crooked teeth or a lack of space for new teeth to emerge.\nTricks to force a tooth out, such as by tying one end of a string around the tooth and the other end around a doorknob, then slamming the door, are not a good idea. These can break the tooth off or cause other injuries.\nIf you do accidentally knock one of your teeth out before it's ready to fall out naturally, contact your dentist, who can help ensure that the problem is taken care of. <img> When all else fails, see a dentist. If your baby tooth is causing you pain and it won't come out no matter what you seem to do, don't be afraid to get help. Schedule an appointment with your dentist; he or she will be able to tell what is keeping your tooth from falling out normally and may even be able to painlessly take it out for you. <img> ", "Gargle after your tooth falls out. You can expect a small amount of bleeding when you lose a tooth. After your tooth has come out, you should try to gargle water or keep on spitting out water a number of times until it's not bloody and it's clear.\nDon’t necessarily be alarmed if it looks like there is a lot of blood. As the tooth area bleeds, the blood mixes with saliva, which can make it look like there is more than there actually is.\nYou can make a saltwater gargle with 1/4 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 cup of warm water. Stir to mix it and gargle. The salt helps fight infection. <img> Use gauze to treat bleeding. Even if your tooth has been so loose that it seemed to be barely hanging on, it may bleed a little when it falls out. Don't worry; this is perfectly normal. If this happens to you, put a small ball of clean gauze in the hole where the tooth used to be to soak up the blood.\nBite on the gauze to hold it in place for about 15 minutes. Most of the time, the bleeding should take less time than this to stop. If the bleeding won't stop, call your dentist. <img> Take a small amount of over-the-counter pain medicine. If your mouth is a little sore after your tooth comes out, you don't simply have to wait for the pain to go away. Over-the-counter pain medicine such as acetaminophen or ibuprofen can make a sore mouth feel much better; just be sure to take the right dosage for your age and size according to the directions on the bottle.\nAsk an adult to help you take the right dose of medicine.\nChildren should not take aspirin unless a doctor says otherwise. <img> Use a cold compress to beat swelling. Cooling the area can also help with any pain you may have after losing a tooth. Place a few pieces of ice in a plastic bag (or use a bag of frozen vegetables) and wrap the bag in a light cloth. Hold this against your cheek in the spot where your mouth hurts for about 15-20 minutes. Over time, the pain, swelling, and inflammation should gradually decrease.\nYou can also buy pre-made cold compresses from most pharmacies. These work the same way as home-made compresses. <img> See a dentist if the pain doesn't go away. Most teeth that fall out naturally should cause no long-term pain. However, sometimes when a tooth becomes loose or falls out because of an injury or dental disease, there can be pain or damage. Sometimes, even more, serious problems like abscesses (fluid-filled \"bubbles\" caused by infections) can occur. If left untreated, these problems can make you sick, so be sure to see a dentist if the pain from losing a tooth doesn't go away on its own.\nSometimes bits of a tooth may be left behind after one falls out. Usually, these will fall out in time as well. However, if there is redness, swelling, or pain caused by a piece of tooth that remains behind, contact a dentist for help. They'll be able to remove it for you. <img> " ]

[ "Measure the width of the closet. Before you purchase your closet rod, you need to know how long it has to be. Every closet varies, so it's important to measure the width of your specific closet with a tape measure so you can purchase the correct length.\nOne common mistake when installing closet rods is to cut them too short.\nMake sure you measure the width of the closet in the area where the rod will be installed. The width of another area, such as the bottom of the closet, could vary dramatically from the upper part of the closet where the rod will be located. <img> Consider various types of closet bars and purchase one. There are a wide variety of closet bars available at most home improvement and hardware stores. In general, you can choose between metal and wood. You will also have the option of getting a solid bar or one that is adjustable.\nMany home improvement stores also stock closet bar kits. These kits include all of the parts you will need to put up your bar: the bar, sockets, and anchors.\nWhatever type of closet rod you choose, make sure it is the right length. Solid rods can be cut to length, but there are also many adjustable rods that can work in a variety of closets. <img> Purchase rod sockets. To install a closet bar you insert the ends of it into sockets that are attached to the wall. These sockets come in a wide variety of styles and are usually made of either metal or wood. If you choose a metal socket, you can typically also choose from several finishes, including silver and white.\nSome rod sockets are attached to shelf brackets. These can be used to hold the rod and to put a shelf above the rod area. <img> Get wood screws and the attachment tools you will need. In order to put the closet bar up securely, you will need to anchor it appropriately. Many sockets come with screws, but if yours don't, you will need to purchase some separately. You will also need a few tools to attach the clothes bar. These include a drill, a screwdriver, and a saw for adjusting the length of the bar and cutting structural support pieces.\nTypically, you will need at least 3 wood screws that are about 1 inch (2.5 cm) long for each socket. <img> ", "Choose an appropriate height for the rod. In order to make the closet rod truly helpful, put it at a height that makes it accessible and useful. In general, it's a good idea to mount a single rod at 5 feet (1.5 m) tall. A double rod set up should have the bottom rod mounted at 3.5 feet (1.1 m) and the upper rod mounted at 7 feet (2.1 m).\nIf there is a shelf above the rod, you should make sure the rod is at least 2 inches (5.1 cm) below the shelf.\nTo figure out how high to put your clothes bar, first think about what you will use it for. For example, if you want to hang long dresses off of a bar, you need to hang it pretty high. If you simply want to hang shirts off of the bar, you can put it at a more moderate height. <img> Decide how deep you want the bar to be. It's important to have it back far enough so that the hangers and clothes that are on the bar will clear the door. However, you also need enough room behind the closet rod for the hangers to clear the back wall. In most cases, having the bar 10 inches (25 cm) off of the back wall works well.\nTo ensure that the rod is positioned correctly, hold a hanger up on the inside of the closet so the hook is at the height you want the rod to go. Position the hanger so it is fully inside the closet and even has a few inches of clearance from the door. Then make a mark at the center of the hanger hook on the wall of the closet. This will give you your proper depth.\nIf you have a particularly deep closet, you can put your bar even deeper. <img> Mark both sides of the closet. Once you have figured out the ideal height and depth for your bar, mark where the brackets will go on both sides of the closet. Measuring up from the floor with a tape measure, make a small preliminary mark at the correct height and approximately the right depth on one side of the closet. Then pull the measuring tape up and check the depth of your mark. Adjust your mark so that it continues to be at the correct height and is now at the right depth as well.\nRepeat this process on the other side of the closet as well.\nTo check your work, measure from the ground, the ceiling, the front, and the back of the closet on both sides. Your marks should be at the same point on both sides. <img> Check for adequate structural support at your marked positions. Closet bars need to be able to support a large amount of weight. To make sure they don't fall because of this weight, it is important to screw them into studs in the wall. The easiest way to find studs in a wall is to use a stud finder.\nYou can also run a strong magnet along the wall to look for screws or nails that are in studs.\nIf the wall is concrete, use expandable anchors that are rated high enough to hold the closet rod and everything you might want to hang from it.\nLook at the top and bottom trim on the wall. They are likely nailed into the studs, so if you can see nail heads, you can identify where the studs are. <img> Add wood supports to the closet walls if needed. If the locations you have marked for the bar sockets do not have studs behind them in the wall, you will need to add supports to the wall. This is done by attaching 1 by 5 inches (2.5 cm × 12.7 cm) pieces of wood along the wall that the sockets can then be attached to.\nTo put up structural support, measure the depth of the side walls of the closet. Cut two pieces of wood that are 1 by 5 inches (2.5 cm × 12.7 cm) to that depth. Then screw them into the studs on the side walls, making sure that their center point is the height you want your clothes bar to be at. These will give you a solid base where you can attach your clothes bar. <img> ", "Mark for screw holes. In order to attach the sockets to the wall, first hold them up and mark the screw holes with a pencil. The socket that is a solid circle can be placed in any position, but the one that has an open side cannot. You need to make sure that the open section is facing straight up.\nOnce you are holding the socket in the proper position on the wall, mark the inside of the screw holes with a pen or pencil. Then you can take the socket off the wall. <img> Drill pilot holes. Use a ⁄4 inch (0.64 cm) drill bit to put holes into the surface-mounted wood or the studs where you have made your marks. Drilling pilot holes will help prevent the wood from splitting when you attach the screws.\nBefore drilling your holes, look at the length of your screws. You only need to drill the holes this deep. <img> Attach the sockets. Once the pilot holes are drilled, you can place the sockets on the wall, positioning them one at a time on top of the pilot holes. Then attach them with the screws you purchased.\nMake sure that the screws are completely inserted. If the heads stick out at all, it could impact your ability to get the rod into place. <img> Adjust the length of the rod. If you have a rod that needs to be cut down, do that now. Double check the length you need and then use a saw to cut the rod. If the rod you bought is adjustable, adjust it to the correct length following the included instructions.\nBe sure to double check your measurement before cutting the closet rod. If you accidentally cut the rod too short, it will be useless and you will have to purchase another one. <img> Insert the rod. How you insert the rod depends on what type of sockets you have purchased. However, with the most common kind you simply insert one end of the bar into the socket that is a solid circle and then drop the other end of the bar into the opening of the socket that has an open side.\nOnce the rod is in place, make sure it feels secure by pulling down on it a little. If it feels strong, you can start to hang your clothes up! <img> " ]

[ "Read the care label to determine how to wash the jacket. This is especially important if your jacket is actually a linen blend, such as a linen-cotton or linen-rayon blend. The label tells you what temperature to set your washing machine and whether or not you should dry the jacket in the dryer.\nIf the garment doesn't have a care label, wash it on the gentlest setting with warm, not hot, water.\nThe care label also tells you what heat to set your iron to if you plan on ironing the jacket. <img> Button or zip the jacket. The zipper can catch on other garments and buttons can get caught in your machine, so take a minute to fasten your linen jacket. Remember to check the pockets for loose items before you wash the jacket.\nZipping or buttoning the jacket can also help it keep its shape while you wash it. <img> Rub a few drops of liquid detergent onto a stain to pretreat it. If you notice a stain on the jacket, wet the fabric and rub liquid laundry detergent onto the stain until it suds. Set the jacket aside for 30 minutes so the detergent can break up the stain. Then, wash the jacket.\nIf you wash the jacket before treating the stain, you may accidentally set the stain, which makes it harder to remove. <img> Fill your machine with lukewarm water and laundry detergent. Instead of tossing the jacket in and adding soap and water, put the soap into your machine and let it fill with water first. This allows the soap to dissolve so it won't leave permanent white stains on the linen fabric.\nIf you have a front-loading washing machine, read the manual to determine if your machine has special care instructions for linen or if you should wash it by hand.\nYou can use your favorite laundry detergent as long as it doesn't contain bleach, which can weaken the fibers.\nFill the machine at least half full of water even if you're only washing 1 or 2 linen items. This allows the fabric to circulate in the machine. <img> Add the linen jacket to the machine. Once your machine is at least half full of soapy water, add the jacket along with any other linen items you'd like to wash. Ensure that you don't fill the machine more than half full of linen. This prevents the jacket from getting tangled and allows it to circulate in the soapy water.Tip: If you're washing a load of linen fabrics along with your jacket, separate them by white, dark, and colored fabrics. This prevents dye from bleeding, especially if the linen hasn't been washed before.\n\nDon't wash non-linen items along with the linens because they might damage the linen fibers. <img> Skip the fabric softener, which weakens the fibers. Your linen jacket will become softer the more you wash it, so there's no need to use fabric softener. If you do use fabric softener, it will coat the fibers, which prevents the linen from wicking moisture and actually stops it from becoming soft. <img> Run the machine on a gentle cycle. Depending on your machine, you might need to select the delicate or handwash cycle. Using any of these gentle settings prevents the linen fibers from being stretched or pulled during the wash.\nRemember to check the care labels of other linen items that you want to wash along with the jacket. If they have different care instructions, you'll need to wash them separately. <img> ", "Check the care label to find what temperature water wash the jacket in. Always check the care label of any garment before you wash it. This tells you how hot or cool the water should be so the fabric doesn't shrink or weaken.\nMost linen fabrics can be washed in lukewarm water, but it's good to double-check, especially if your jacket is a linen-cotton or rayon-cotton blend. <img> Work a few drops of detergent onto stains to pretreat them. Check the jacket for any stains and rub liquid laundry detergent onto each stain you find. Keep rubbing the fabric until you see soap suds. Then, leave the jacket for 30 minutes before you wash it.\nLeaving the jacket to rest allows the soap to penetrate the stains so they'll wash out easily. <img> Fill a sink or basin with lukewarm water and 1 tsp (4.9 ml) of laundry detergent. Clean out a deep sink or set a large basin on your work surface. Run enough lukewarm water to fill your sink or basin about half full. Then, stir in 1 teaspoon (4.9 ml) of liquid laundry detergent so it dissolves.\nUse any type of laundry detergent as long as it doesn't contain bleach, which can damage the linen fibers. <img> Add the jacket and swish it in the water for 2 or 3 minutes. Place the linen jacket into the soapy water and submerge it. Use your hands to gently squeeze and move the jacket around so the soapy water loosens dirt. Depending on how dirty the linen jacket is, you may need to wash it for at least 3 minutes.Tip: If your linen jacket is heavily soiled, soak it in the soapy water for up to 1 hour. Then, use your hands to gently squeeze and wash the jacket.\n\nSince you don't have to worry about zippers or buttons catching in a machine, there's no need to fasten the jacket before you wash it. <img> Drain the soapy water and fill the container with clean water. To rinse your jacket, drain the soapy water from the sink or slowly pour it out of the basin. Then, re-fill the sink or basin with fresh lukewarm water.\nFill the sink or basin at least half full so the jacket can circulate easily. <img> Swish the jacket in the clean water to rinse the soap away. Use your hands to swirl the jacket around in the water to remove the soapy residue. Keep swishing the jacket until it's free of suds.\nIf the jacket still feels soapy, you may need to drain the water and rinse the jacket again. <img> Squeeze the jacket gently to remove the water. Lift the jacket up so water drips into the sink or basin. Use your hands to gently squeeze the jacket without twisting the fabric. If you think you've removed most of the moisture, you can finish drying your jacket on a clothesline.\nIf there's still a lot of water in the jacket, lay it flat on a clean towel. Then, lay another towel over the jacket and press down so it absorbs the moisture. <img> ", "Toss the jacket in the dryer on low if you'd like to speed up drying time. If you're short on time and need your jacket quickly, read the care label to see if you can dry it in the machine. If you can, place it in the dryer and turn it to low or gentle heat. Remove the jacket while it's still wet and finish drying it on a clothesline.Tip: Place just the jacket in the dryer to tumble dry and set a timer for 5 minutes. Most of the moisture should be removed and you won't risk overdrying the linen.\n\nIf the jacket doesn't have a care label, avoid drying it in the machine just to be on the safe side.\nNever use high heat to dry the jacket or you could weaken the linen fibers. You may even shrink the fabric if the linen hasn't been washed and dried before. <img> Hang the linen jacket from a clothesline until it's dry. Get out a few clothespins and use them to attach the jacket's shoulders to your clothesline. Leave the jacket for a few hours or until it's dry.\nIf you don't have a clothesline, hang the jacket on a hanger that has smooth support arms. Hang the jacket in a well-ventilated space so the jacket dries quickly. <img> Iron the jacket with high heat if you want to remove wrinkles. Heat your iron to the linen or cotton setting, which is high heat. Lay your damp linen jacket on an ironing board and press the hot iron over the fabric to smooth out creases or wrinkles.\nThere's no need to spritz the fabric with water since it's still damp. If you're ironing completely dry linen, you may need to spray water onto the fabric to help release the wrinkles. <img> " ]

[ "Identify if the birth certificate is fake. It may be difficult to tell whether a birth certificate is authentic or a fake just by looking at it. However, you can look for the following details:\nAn authentic birth certificate should have a seal on it. The seal is often raised or multicolored. It can also be impressed into the paper. If the birth certificate doesn’t have a seal, then it could be fake.\nCheck to make sure that the certificate was signed. It should be signed by the city, county, or state registrar.\nA genuine birth certificate should also have the person’s full name, as well as the place and date of birth. If this information is missing, then the birth certificate may be fake.\nAlso make sure the birth certificate has a filing date on it. <img> Get a copy of the birth certificate, if possible. If you have the fake birth certificate, then you should hold onto it or make a copy, which you can share with law enforcement. If you don’t have a copy of the birth certificate, then don’t worry about it.\nAs you gather information, remember not to break the law. Don’t sneak into someone’s home to find the birth certificate or hack into their computer. Let law enforcement investigate. <img> Write down where the person lives. Law enforcement also needs to know where the criminal is located. Write down the address, if you know it. If you don't know where he or she lives, then find a work address, if possible. <img> Document other important information. Also look for other helpful identifying information, which you can report. For example, if you suspect the criminal used a fake birth certificate to illegally immigrate into the U.S., then find the following information about the person:\nSocial Security Number\ncountry of origin\ncountry of birth <img> ", "Choose whether to report anonymously. You can generally choose to report a crime without giving your name. For example, you may be afraid of the criminal and not want to get involved in the investigation. However, if you report anonymously, then the police can’t ask you to testify.\nTo report anonymously, you should look for an online complaint form. Many law enforcement agencies have them.\nYou might also call a hotline. However, some people are afraid that the call might be traced, so you should probably call from a pay phone.\nYou might also want to report using Crime Stoppers by calling 1-800-222-TIPS. Crime Stoppers is a national organization that collects anonymous tips. Many cities have their own individual Crime Stoppers phone number, which you can find online. <img> Contact your local police. Birth certificate fraud is a felony in about half of all states and a misdemeanor in about half. Chances are that someone who gets a fake birth certificate is also using it to commit other crimes, so you should certainly report your suspicions to local law enforcement.\nYou can find the police phone number online or in your phone book.\nYou can also find an online complaint or tip form by searching the Internet for “your city” and “police tip form.” <img> Report to the FBI. It is a federal crime to commit fraud in connection with identification documents, such as a birth certificate. The Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI) investigates federal crimes. Your local law enforcement might forward your complaint onto the FBI. However, you could also contact them yourself.\nYou can find the number to your nearest FBI field office by visiting the website.\nYou can also provide a tip using the online form. <img> ", "Call ICE. False birth certificates are often used to help someone enter the country illegally. You can report an illegal immigrant to ICE by calling toll-free at 866-347-2423.\nICE allows you to report anonymously as well. <img> Report online instead. You only need to make one report to ICE. If you prefer, you can report online instead of reporting by phone. Visit the complaint form and provide the following information:\nyour name\nyour phone number\nyour email\nwhether you are located in the U.S. or outside the country\nthe suspected violation\nwhere the crime has been committed (i.e., where the criminal lives)\ndetails about the crime\nwhether you have reported the crime to another law enforcement agency <img> Receive a monetary award. ICE has the power to give you a monetary award, though this award is discretionary. They don’t have to award one.\nYou shouldn’t expect ICE to keep you updated on the investigation.

[ "Wash your face with a gentle cleanser once or twice per day. Splash your face with lukewarm water, then gently massage in a small amount of a hypoallergenic facial cleanser. Rinse the cleanser away with cool water, then pat your face dry with a soft cloth.\nThe best time to wash your face is in the evening before going to bed. You can also wash in the morning, especially if your dermatologist recommends it. Alternatively, you might just use lukewarm water and a clean cloth to gently wipe your face in the morning. <img> Use steam from the shower or sink to soften your skin. Do this after washing your face. If you showered, let the steam build up in your bathroom and hang out in there for 5-10 minutes. Or, fill the sink with hot water, lean your face over it, and drape a towel over your head for 5-10 minutes.\nMilia aren’t caused by clogged pores, but letting the steam open your pores may make it easier to exfoliate dead skin cells covering the milia.\nSteam also softens your skin, which makes exfoliating a bit easier. <img> Gently exfoliate under your eyes with a warm, damp, soft cloth. After you’re done with your steam treatment, run a clean cloth under warm water and squeeze out the excess. Rub the area under your eyes gently for 1-2 minutes, using a circular motion and light pressure. Rinse your face with cool water, then pat it dry with a clean towel.\nDon’t rub so hard that you cause redness or discomfort. Your goal is to remove dead skin cells from the area of the milia, not to try to rub the milia off!\nExfoliate every other day, unless your dermatologist recommends doing so more or less frequently. <img> Apply a natural remedy like honey or rose water, if desired. Both honey and rose water have antimicrobial properties and may potentially encourage milia to disappear more quickly. For a simple honey mask, apply a small amount of honey beneath your eyes, let it sit for 15 minutes, then wipe it away completely with lukewarm water and a soft cloth.\nAlternatively, you can make honey masks with ingredients like turmeric, almond oil, aloe vera, or oatmeal.\nFor a rose water face mask, mix together spoonfuls of plain yogurt and honey, then stir in a few drops of rose water. As with a plain honey face mask, leave it on your face for 15 minutes before wiping it away.\nThere’s no real evidence that natural masks like these will help get rid of milia, but they’re also very unlikely to cause any problems. <img> Conceal the milia with hypoallergenic makeup if you wish. If you want to hide the milia while you treat them, use a lightweight, hypoallergenic makeup that won’t clog your pores or cake over your skin cells. Remove the makeup completely when you wash your face in the evening.\nSmall amounts of concealing makeup shouldn’t impact how long the milia will last. Caking on heavy amounts of makeup may cause the milia to stick around longer, though. <img> ", "Don’t pick, poke, or try to remove milia, especially near your eyes. You can’t “pop” milia like pimples (which you shouldn’t do anyway), and trying to do so may break the skin and cause an infection or scarring. While it’s possible to remove milia yourself with a sterilized needle, tweezers, and comedone extractor, you should definitely never try this with any milia that are anywhere near your eyes.\nThe risk of injuring your eye with a sharp instrument is simply too great to risk.\nThink twice before trying to remove milia that aren’t near your eyes. Even if you properly sterilize your tools to reduce the risk of infection, there’s still a chance you’ll cause scarring. It’s always safer to see have a doctor remove milia. <img> Apply an OTC topical medication with your doctor’s approval. Do this if you prefer a medical treatment to a natural mask. It’s always best to consult your dermatologist or primary care doctor before using any of the numerous over-the-counter options available. They’ll help you choose the right option for your specific needs and avoid potential drug interactions or side effects.\nOnly use treatments that are specifically labeled for use near the eyes. Even then, be extra careful not to get any of the medication into your eyes.\nThese topical treatments often include one of the following ingredients: alpha hydroxy acids; salicylic acid; retinol. <img> Treat milia with prescribed topical retinoids. Talk to a dermatologist about the option of treating the milia with topical retinoids. Topical means a cream or a gel that you put on top of your skin, rather than a medicine that you ingest. If your doctor prescribes topical retinoids, you will most likely have to apply the retinoid to the milia every day for several weeks.\nRetinoid is the active form of vitamin A.\nKeep in mind that this is purely cosmetic, since milia aren’t actually harmful, so you could just wait for them to go away. <img> Undergo “deroofing” or similar mechanical removal techniques. Your primary care doctor or dermatologist will likely remove milia using a process called “deroofing.” They’ll create a tiny slice in your skin right next to each milia, then use a comedone extractor and/or tweezers to draw and pull the milia out through the skin opening.\nThis is an extremely delicate procedure when done anywhere near the eyes. Always leave it to the professionals, or simply leave the milia alone. <img> Discuss alternate treatments like cryotherapy or laser ablation. Milia can, in some cases, be removed using methods other than manual extraction. These are less likely when the milia are near your eyes, out of concern for any accidents that may cause eye damage. Alternate treatments may include:\nCryotherapy, in which the milia are frozen off with a small, specialized tool.\nLaser ablation, which essentially “zaps” the milia away with a targeted beam of light. <img> ", "Leave milia alone if they don’t bother you physically or emotionally. Unless they get infected, most likely due to you scratching or picking at them, milia are completely harmless physically. Therefore, leaving them alone is nearly always the appropriate medical recommendation. They’ll usually go away on their own within 2 weeks to 6 months.\nHowever, if having prominent milia under your eyes (or elsewhere) is causing you emotional distress, it’s reasonable to have them removed for your own wellbeing. Let your doctor know if this is the case for you. <img> Don’t worry about milia on newborns or infants. Roughly half of all babies develop at least some milia on their faces during their first 6 months of life. It’s not clear exactly why this happens, but it’s completely normal and nearly always completely harmless. The milia will almost certainly go away on their own by around 6 months of age.\nNever try to remove milia from a baby yourself, and don’t expect to find a legitimate doctor who will do so either. The only reason a doctor might consider removing milia is if they are red, swollen, and possibly infected. <img> Take care of your skin to possibly reduce the likelihood of getting milia. There’s no guaranteed way to prevent milia, but being kind to your skin may lower your chances. Proper skin care may also reduce your risk of acne and more serious conditions like skin cancer. In addition to an under-eye cleaning, steaming, and exfoliating routine, take steps like:\nApplying sunscreen whenever you go outdoors.\nWearing a broad-brimmed hat to keep the sun off your face.\nRemoving makeup thoroughly at bed time.\nContacting your doctor regarded the appropriate treatment for any abrasions or minor burns on your skin. Milia can sometimes occur in the area of healing skin. <img> " ]

[ "Determine your size. The number of stitches you cast on and work for each of the sweater’s sections will depend on the size you need. Measure your chest and use this measurement to choose your size. The measurements for sizes of this sweater include:\nExtra Small: 32 inches (81 cm)\nSmall: 36 inches (91 cm)\nMedium: 40 inches (102 cm)\nLarge: 44 inches (112 cm)\nExtra Large: 48 inches (122 cm)\nExtra Extra Large: 52 inches (132 cm) <img> Get plenty of yarn. After you have determined your size, you will be able to purchase your yarn. The amount of yarn you will need will depend on the size sweater you want to make. Choose a bulky weight yarn to make your sweater, such as Lion Brand Homespun. Check your size to find out how many skeins you will need.\nExtra Small: 3 skeins\nSmall: 4 skeins\nMedium: 4 skeins\nLarge: 5 skeins\nExtra Large: 5 skeins\nExtra Extra Large: 5 skeins <img> Gather your tools. In addition to your yarn, you will also need some special knitting tools to make your sweater. Before you begin, you will need:\nSize 10 knitting needles (6.0 mm)\nSize 8 knitting needles (5.0 mm)\nScissors\nYarn needle <img> ", "Cast on the required number of stitches for your size. Start by casting on the number of stitches that corresponds to your size. This will be the same for your front and back pieces. Use your size 8 needles to cast on the stitches. Depending on your size, you will need to cast on:\nExtra Small: 56 stitches\nSmall: 63 stitches\nMedium: 70 stitches\nLarge: 77 stitches\nExtra Large: 84 stitches\nExtra Extra Large: 91 stitches <img> Use your size 8 needles to work the next six rows in garter stitch. After you finish casting on the required number of stitches for your size, begin working in the garter stitch. Continue working in the garter stitch for the next six rows. This will form the bottom border of your sweater.\nTo work the garter stitch, knit all of your rows. <img> Switch to your size 10 needles and work in the stockinette stitch. After you finish your sixth row, begin working your next row onto your size 10 needles. Then, start working the rows in the stockinette stitch. Continue to work your rows in the stockinette stitch until your piece measures 15 inches (38 cm).\nTo work the stockinette stitch, alternate between knitting and purling your rows. For example, you would knit the first row, then purl the second row, then knit the third row, and so on. <img> Bind off first four stitches of the next two rows. After your piece reaches 15 inches (38 cm), you will need to begin shaping the area for your armhole. To do this, bind off the first four stitches at the beginning of your next two rows. This will leave you with four bound off stitches on either side of your back piece.\nTo bind off, knit the first two stitches in the row, and then loop the first stitch over the second stitch. Then knit one, and loop the first one over the second one. Continue to knit one and loop the first over the second until you have bound off the first 4 stitches in the row. <img> Work in stockinette stitch until the piece is the desired length. After binding off the stitches for shaping the armholes, your will continue working the piece in stockinette stitch. Keep going until the piece is the right measurement for your size, which includes:\nExtra Small: 21 (53 cm)\nSmall: 21.5 (54.5 cm)\nMedium: 22 (56 cm)\nLarge: 22.5 (57.5 cm)\nExtra Large: 23 (59 cm)\nExtra Extra Large: 23.5 (60.5 cm) <img> Bind off. When you have achieved the desired length, you will need to bind off the stitches. Use the same standard bind off method that you used for the armhole to bind off the entire last row. <img> Repeat for the second piece. Remember that front and back pieces of this sweater will be identical, so you need to make two of these pieces. After you finish making one, repeat the process and make the other piece. <img> ", "Cast on using your size 8 needles. To start each of your sleeves, you will need to cast on the right number of stitches for your size. Find your size to determine how many stitches to cast on.\nExtra Small: 31 stitches\nSmall: 32 stitches\nMedium: 34 stitches\nLarge: 35 stitches\nExtra Large: 37 stitches\nExtra Extra Large: 38 stitches <img> Knit six rows using size 8 needles for the sleeve borders. Use your size 8 needles to work the first six rows of the sleeve in the garter stitch. This will form the border for your sleeves. <img> Switch to size 10 needles and stockinette stitch. After your sixth row, switch your needles to the size 10 pair. Then, begin working the rows in the stockinette stitch. <img> Work your increases. You will need to work increases as you continue to knit the sleeve. This will ensure that the sleeve will get larger as you work up towards the shoulder. Begin working increases when your sleeve is about 30 rows in total. Then, work an increase into the edge stitch every four rows as you make your way up to the shoulder.\nTo increase, knit into the stitch as usual, but do not slip the old stitch off the needle yet. Knit into the same stitch again by inserting the needle through the back of the stitch instead of through the front of the stitch. Then allow the old stitch to slide off as the two new stitches replace it. <img> Continue working the rows of your sweater sleeve. Keep going until your sleeve is the required measurement for your size. The sleeve size measurements include:\nExtra Small: 18.5 inches (47 cm)\nSmall: 19 inches (48 cm)\nMedium: 19.5 inches (49.5 cm)\nLarge: 20 inches (51 cm)\nExtra Large: 20.5 inches (52 cm)\nExtra Extra Large: 21 inches (53 cm) <img> Bind off the stitches. When your sleeve is the desired length, you will need to bind off the stitches. This will secure them so that you can sew the sleeves onto the front and back pieces. <img> Repeat to create your second sleeve. After you finish one sleeve, make sure to make a second one. Make your second sleeve exactly the same way as the first one. <img> ", "Thread your yarn needle. Start by threading your yarn needle with about an arm’s length of thread (around 18 inches). This will help to ensure that the yarn will not get tangled as you sew. Make sure to use the same color and type of yarn that you used for your sweater pieces.\nKeep in mind that you will need to rethread the needle before sewing each piece of the sweater, so have some yarn ready to go. <img> Sew the sleeves closed. Line up the edges of one of your sleeves so that the right sides are facing each other and the long edges are even. Sew from the bottom corner of the sleeve near the six row border to the end of the edge near the shoulder. Then, tie off the yarn and cut any excess yarn. Leave the sleeves turned wrong side out for now.\nRepeat this for both sleeves. <img> Sew together the front and back pieces of the sweater. Line up the two pieces of your sweater so that the right sides are facing each other and the edges are even. Remember that these should be identical pieces, so lining up the edges should be easy. Then, begin sewing from the bottom corner of the sweater on the edge of the six row border you created and up towards the top. Stop sewing when you reach the armhole space.\nRepeat this for both sides of the sweater.\nLeave the piece turned inside out for now. <img> Attach the sleeves. After you have finished sewing up the sleeves and sides of the sweater, you will need to attach the sleeves to the shoulder area of the sweater body pieces. Take one of the sleeves and line it up so that the seam is facing downwards. Begin sewing where the seam of the sleeve and the seam of the body piece meet. This will be in the armpit area. Sew around the sleeve edge to attach the sleeve and close up the armhole.\nRepeat this for both sleeves. <img> Sew up the shoulders to shape the neckline. To complete your sweater, you will need to sew along the top of each of the shoulders to shape them and create the neckline. Sew along the edges of the front and back pieces of the shoulder to connect them.\nMake sure to do this while the sweater is still turned inside out.\nBe careful not to make the neck opening too small or you may not be able to get the sweater over your head.\nAfter you finish sewing the shoulders and shaping the neckline, tie off the thread and cut the excess. Then, turn the sweater inside out to hide the seams. Your sweater is complete! <img> " ]

[ "Treat multiple windows as one by framing them with drapes. To create a grand visual, look at your multiple windows as one large window. Hang the drapes so they run in a horizontal line along the top of the windows—the drapes will fall towards the floor on the far left and far right side of the window section. Use hooks to hold the drapes, or put the drapes on a rod if all of the window frames are even.\nUse a level to ensure the hooks are even before installing them.\nDraw a line or dot with a pencil where you'd like the screw to go into the wall to hold the hooks.\nInstall the hooks by holding each one steady and drilling in the screws—it's likely that the hooks will come with their own hardware.\nTo make your window look grand and visually appealing, hang a curtain rod 1 foot (0.30 m) above the top of the window. <img> Hang sheer curtains from a rod for a delicate and soft effect. Sheer curtains are super easy to install—all you have to do is hang them across a rod and they’re ready to go. The sheer quality will allow the room to be lit by sunlight while also creating an opaque view through the curtains. These are great for summertime as they have a light, flowy look and feel.\nSelect white sheer curtains to make the room lighter.\nOpt for sheer curtains with a colored tint in them for a more dramatic look.\nYou can choose a rod that comes with its own attachments to make installing it against the wall super easy, or you can pick out a simple rod and choose your own hooks. <img> Try out a valance to allow light in while adding detail. A valance is a single piece of fabric that hangs from the top of the window. It only covers a small portion of the window. Many valances come with their own mounting hardware and directions since their designs can be very different.\nImagine drapes that go all the way across your window, except with the bottom four-fifths cut off—this is what a valance looks like.\nValances come in different patterns and materials, giving you a wide variety to choose from.\n\nHang a valance by using a level to make even marks where the brackets should go, following the specific instructions related to your chosen valance to screw the brackets into the wall.\nValances also come in boxed form (also called a cornice) for a more formal feel. They look like a window box at the top of the window. <img> Add a window scarf for elegant draping. A window scarf is whimsical, but doesn’t provide privacy. Wrap the window scarf loosely around a rod above your window, similar to how you would twist streamers horizontally for a party. This adds a nice decorative effect, and each end of the scarf can be used to shield a little bit of light at each end of the window.\nWindow scarves can be bought at a home goods store or online, or you can make them out of your own material. You could use a long scarf or tapestry, if desired.\nYou can create as many or few loops around the rod as you'd like.\nSimply drape the window scarf around the rod in loose coils, letting the ends of the scarf run down the side of each window evenly. <img> Use a roman shade for easy-to-use curtains. A roman shade allows you to choose how much light you let in through the window horizontally. If you’re trying to decorate multiple windows, you can have a separate roman shade for each window, or you can use one large roman shade for all of the windows combined.\nRoman shades are made from fabric, woven wood, or bamboo. Some have a cord while others are cordless, which is ideal for a seamless look.\nRoman shades are usually lifted up and let down using a string hanging from the top of the shade.\n\nInstall a roman shade by choosing where you'd like it to be mounted, using a level to make even marks where the brackets should go, and screwing the brackets into place using a screwdriver.\nYou can pick out roman shades that are already designed, or you can have them custom-made to your specifications. <img> Install hooks at the corners of oddly-shaped windows for unique drapery. If your window has odd slants or unique angles, hang the drapes so that they go along the lines as opposed to covering them up. Use simple drapes of a solid color to make the window the main focal point.\nUse hooks to attach the drapes then twist them around each hook so that they stay in place, if desired.\nDrill a hole for each hook using a bit that is the same size as the hook, then screw the hook into the hole.\nIf your windows are uniquely- or oddly-shaped, consider getting custom-made window treatments. <img> Paint the trim of the windows to draw attention to their shape. Instead of adding curtains or covering up the window, paint the trim of the window with a color of your choosing. Opt for a bold color to make the window stand out, or use a color present in the room to complement your decor.\nPut down strips of painter's tape along the wall on the edges closest to the trim to make sure you don't get paint anywhere you don't want it.\nUse a brush with a smaller width than your trim to ensure you can paint the details, and use at least 2 coats of paint, letting the first coat dry before adding a second.\nPut down a drop cloth beneath the window to make sure you don't get paint on the floor. <img> ", "Complement outdoor colors by choosing a similar shade for your drapes. If your window shows a view of a forested backyard with lots of trees, you might consider hanging drapes that are a similar green shade as the trees. Choose colors that complement the outdoors, helping to blur the line between inside and outside.\nIf your window overlooks a skyline, you could use drapes that are the same color as the sky, or even a shade of the sunset.\nWith this look, your windows will seem to disappear as the focus point is the outside view. <img> Go with a whimsical print for a lively look. To make your curtains stand out, select a fabric with a creative or abstract design. It could be a fabric with animals on it, symbols, patterns, or another type of loose design.\nFor example, if you’re trying to choose drapes for your child’s bedroom, pick out a fabric with zoo animals, the ABCs, or their favorite book characters on it.\nYou can use curtains to easily and inexpensively change the style of any room. <img> Choose a ruffled curtain for a feminine look. A ruffled curtain, either of a sheer material or solid fabric, is a great option if you’re trying to give your room a more dainty and soft look. Hang the ruffled curtain on a rod, or install nicely-designed hooks on each side of the window to hang them on.\nUse a level to measure where the hooks should go if using them, and install them using a drill and screws designed for the hooks. <img> Accent a bold-colored item in the room to create a focal point. If you have an item in the room that’s already the focal point, create curtains or drapes of the same color. This will give the room a bold and inviting look and will make choosing a color super easy.\nFor example, if there’s a large painting in the room of the ocean, consider getting drapes that are the same color as the waves. <img> Pick out lively curtains to frame your windows. A bold color will create a focal point for your room if you don’t already have one. This works especially well for rooms with mostly neutral-colored items in them, but can be a great contrast for other bold-colored items.\nGo for bold colors such as red, royal blue, pink, green, or bright yellow. <img> Opt for soft neutrals when picking out drapes for a light and airy feel. Soft colors will make the room appear lighter and more open. Aim for colors such as white, light gray, or tan to create this effect. <img> Select a woven fabric for blinds to create an organic feel. Blinds made out of a woven fabric, such as woven wood, create a natural look while letting in lots of light. Choose an organic material to create blinds that you can easily adjust to let in certain amounts of light.\nYou could also use wood and buy or create shutters for your windows.\nChoosing fabrics made of neutral colors will reinforce the organic aesthetic. <img> Draw attention to the windows by selecting striped drapes. Choose drapes that have stripes covering them—the stripes could be wide or super thin, whichever size you like best. Choose stripes of a bold color to make them the focal point of the room, or choose a more neutral contrast to allow them to blend in more.\nFor a nautical option, pick out wide blue stripes against a white background.\nChoose thin tan and white stripes for a more neutral look. <img> " ]

[ "Select a main attacker (or two, if desired). Tartaglia, Keqing, Beidou, Xiao, and Ayaka are a few of many characters with combat talents designed to deal top-tier damage. It is quite easy to maximize these characters' damage output. While it is possible to build characters designed as supports as your main attacker (such as Barbara, Qiqi, Noelle, and Amber) and get excellent results, it will take a lot more guesswork, farming, and time to get the damage you want.\nSome characters can also be played as burst attackers. A character built as such has their build optimized for damage when their elemental burst is active, however, another character will do the majority of the damage when said characters burst is not active. <img> Choose characters to support this main role. Some characters have passive roles that maximize damage, while others are able to heal your primary attacker or reduce incoming damage and resistance to interruption. Barbara, Qiqi, Bennett, and Diona are excellent healers. Sucrose is able to provide an Elemental Mastery boost after casting her elemental skill, and she (along with Kazuha and Venti) can group enemies together. Zhongli and Noelle can protect your character from incoming damage. Mona can temporarily stun smaller enemies and provide a big damage boost for enemies affected by her burst. Kaeya, Ayaka, Xingqiu, Barbara, and Mona can apply Cryo and Hydro respectively in a pinch (which makes them good support candidates for melt/vaporize or freeze teams).\nYou should also keep elemental reactions in mind when selecting supports, since they can also greatly boost your damage.\nIf Razor or Keqing is your main attacker, it is crucial to add a Cryo character (such as Kaeya) to your party. Likewise, if Eula is your main attacker, you should add an Electro character (such as Fischl) to your team comp. If you're running a character who is neither an Electro or Cryo user as a physical attacker (such as Jean or Xinyan), two of your supports should be Cryo and Electro respectively. This is because the Superconduct reaction greatly boosts physical DMG output. <img> Take advantage of elemental resonance. Elemental resonance can give your team a boost without farming artifacts or the like.\nHaving characters of any four elements will give all characters a 15% resistance to all elements and physical DMG.\nHaving two Pyro characters in your team increases ATK by 25% and decreases the Cryo status effect time by 40%.\nHaving two Hydro characters in your team increases healing by 30% and decreases Pyro time by 40%.\nHaving two Cryo characters in your team increases CRIT rate against enemies affected by Cryo by 15% and decreases Electro time by 40%.\nHaving two Electro characters in your team generates elemental particles everytime Electro reactions are triggered and decreases Hydro time by 40%.\nHaving two Anemo characters on your team decreases stamina consumption by 15%, increases movement speed by 10%, and shortens skill CD by 5%.\nHaving two Geo characters on your team increases shield strength by 15% and gives a 15% damage boost to players protected by a shield and decreases enemy resistance to geo by 20% within 15 seconds of the shield being created. <img> Select a party's weapons. You must choose four weapons that have stats and effects that complement your DPS and supports.\nEach new character comes with a 1-star weapon, but it can be changed to one of higher rarity. 3-star and higher weapons also have passive effects.\nFor your attacker, stats such as high base ATK, ATK%, CRIT rate, and CRIT DMG are highly effective. For your supports, it depends; Elemental Mastery is great on Sucrose and Kazuha, but not so much for Fischl. High defense is needed for Noelle and Albedo, but high HP is needed for Bennett and Diona. <img> Attempt the Gacha for characters. If you do not have a good set of characters, the Wish system will allow you to attempt for more characters. You are guaranteed characters at set intervals. <img> ", "Level your characters up. Leveling up characters will allow you to maximize outgoing damage as well as increase their other substats like CRIT Rate (the probability a critical hit is scored).\nYou can get Adventurer's EXP as well as character level-up materials by fighting enemies and bosses, provided you spend Resin. <img> Level up their three talents. For this, you will need to collect the appropriate talent level-up materials. You can get talent level-up materials from domains that offer them, provided that you spend Resin. You can also get some talent level-up materials by defeating each of the weekly bosses.\n\"Crowning\" a talent refers to getting a talent to its maximum (Lv. 10 or Lv. 13, depending on constellation). Once at its maximum, it cannot be leveled up further, except when the max talent level has been upped to 15. <img> Level up weapons. Weapons can be enhanced with enhancement ore and ascended by completing domains that offer them, provided you spend Resin. Higher level weapons deal more damage than lower level weapons. <img> Select good artifacts. Artifact stats are randomized upon obtaining them, but to get maximum damage potential, you want to focus on artifacts that increase ATK, artifacts that give the appropriate elemental damage bonus, as well as artifacts that increase CRIT Rate and CRIT DMG.\nHitting opponent weak spots is guaranteed to score a critical hit and deal critical damage. For this reason, CRIT rate might not be super important for archers.\nArtifacts can be obtained by completing domains that offer them as well as defeating bosses.Tip: Certain artifact sets are particularly advantageous to certain elements and character positions. Gladiator's Finale is best for the Traveler as well as any melee character. Wanderer's Troupe is best for any ranged character. Each Tiara is good for minimizing DMG from one element. Thundering Fury is best for Electro, Crimson Witch of Flames is best for Pyro, Viridescent Venerer is best for Anemo, Blizzard Strayer is best for Cryo, Archaic Petra is best for Geo, and Heart of Depth is best for Hydro.\n\nObtaining artifacts with good stats will take multiple tries.\nArtifacts can be used to level up other artifacts. <img> " ]

[ "Strong odors could deter spiders from hiding spots near your patio. Some studies have shown that essential oil works effectively as a natural repellent. Add 5–7 drops of a peppermint or chestnut oil to 2 cups (470 ml) of water in a spray bottle. Spray along the edges of your patio and anywhere else where spiders might like to hide, such as along your home’s foundation or in any dark holes or gaps nearby.\nRosemary, lavender, eucalyptus, and citrus essential oils may also be effective.\nWhile there haven't been many scientific studies about vinegar being effective for spiders, it doesn't hurt to try spraying it around your patio's perimeter.\nCitrus and peppermint oils are poisonous to cats, so avoid using them if you have any pets nearby. If you’re concerned about using other essential oils, ask a vet if they’re safe around your pets. <img> ", "Diatomaceous earth dries spiders out and kills them on contact. Diatomaceous earth (DE) is a powdery substance that cuts through a spider’s exoskeleton and kills it. Spread some DE around problem areas, like any dark corners or cracks on your patio. Since rain and wind will remove DE, just be sure to reapply it if you have bad weather.\nYou can buy DE from your local garden store.\nDiatomaceous could be harmful if it gets on your skin or in your lungs. Wear a mask, safety glasses, and long-sleeved clothing when you apply it. <img> ", "The chemicals in these fruits could be enough to turn spiders away. Hedge apples are small green fruits also known as Osage oranges that many people use to deter spiders. Buy some hedge apples from your local garden supply store and set them around your patio. Be sure to keep a few extras on hand so you can replace them if squirrels or chipmunks get to them.\nWhile some people have had success with hedge apples, there isn’t any scientific research backing up their claims. <img> ", "Spiders will find a new place to rebuild their webs away from your patio. Spiders tend to build webs in areas where they won’t be disturbed. If you see a web somewhere on your patio, use a broom, dewebber pole or vacuum to clean it up right away.\nIf the webs are out of your reach, use a hose to spray them down with some water. <img> ", "Prevent baby spiders from hatching by crushing or vacuuming the eggs. Egg sacs are ball- or cone-shaped pieces of silk that are either white or tan. Look for egg sacs near webs or hidden in small, dark areas that won’t be disturbed. When you see them, simply crush them with a shoe or newspaper, or use a vacuum to suck them up and get rid of the spiderlings inside.\nAvoid moving egg sacs by hand since baby spiders might have already hatched inside. <img> ", "Spiders won’t have anywhere to hide when you clean your patio. Spiders tend to build their webs or live in areas that are dark and undisturbed, like near construction materials, woodpiles, and rocks. Reposition any large items away from your patio so you’re less likely to see spiders crawling around. If you can, store your items in sealed bins or a shed so spiders can’t even access them.\nWear gloves and long sleeves when you’re moving your things around just in case there are spiders on them already. <img> ", "Keep your patio dark to stop attracting other bugs. The main thing drawing spiders toward your patio are other bugs they're trying to hunt. Since exterior lights attract bugs at night, spiders will usually build their webs nearby. Only turn on your outdoor lights when you need to or get motion sensors so they’re not on the entire time.\nIf you can’t turn off your lights, try switching to a yellow or purple bulb instead. Bugs aren’t as attracted to yellow lights, which may mean there won’t be as many spiders.\nIf you can, reposition any exterior lights on a post that’s away from your home and patio so you keep the spiders away. <img> ", "You can knock off spiders and webs before you sit down. Spiders might make their homes in the dark corners of your furniture, so sweep or spray it down with a hose. Be sure to check underneath the furniture and in any tight corners for webs too. Try to clean your furniture once every 2 weeks or so to keep spiders from getting too comfortable.\nIf your patio furniture has cushions, try to wash them at least once a month. <img> ", "Pruning your plants discourages spiders from hiding in them. If you have any plants overhanging your patio, you’re more likely to see spiders nearby. Grab a pair of pruning shears and cut back any of your plants that extend past the edge of your patio. Make it a routine to check every few weeks or so for new growths you can trim off.\nYou can also transplant any plants that are too close to your patio to move them further away. <img> ", "Tall grass near your patio could attract a lot of spiders. Rather than letting your lawn grow really long, keep it short and under control. Pay special attention to the area of grass around your patio. Make it a point to mow regularly so you’re only removing a third of the growth at a time so your grass stays healthy. <img> ", "Caulking prevents spiders from hiding or getting inside your home. Search near the foundation of your home near your patio to see if there are any cracks, holes, or gaps that a spider could be living inside. Get a caulk gun and apply caulk to the damage to create a tight seal that spiders can’t get through. Without any nearby hiding spots, the spiders will try to find a new area to live.\nReplace any damaged window screens or weatherstripping as well if you want to protect your home from spiders too. <img> ", "Spiders won't be able to feed if there aren't other insects. If you see spider webs near your patio, check them to see if you can find any insects caught in them so you know what pests you need to take care of. If you see any moths or gnats, turn off your outdoor lights at night since they could attract the bugs. If you see flies, try keeping cups of vinegar outside as a natural trap. If there are mosquitoes, get rid of any water sources on your patio or in your yard. <img> ", "Residual pesticides can help, but they’re not as effective outdoors. You only need to use chemical pesticides if you have a large spider infestation. Opt for a pyrethroid pesticide that contains bifenthrin, cyfluthrin, permethrin, or tetramethrin since it’s the most effective for killing spiders. Spray the area around your patio with the pesticide, following the instructions on the packaging and focusing on dark holes or cracks where spiders hide.\nChemical pesticides could be harmful to children and pets.\nRemember, spiders are beneficial since they hunt other pests, like flies and mosquitoes, so you don’t need to get rid of them completely.\tExpert Answer\t\t\t\t\t\tQ\t\t\t\tWhat is the best outdoor spider killer?\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tLuke Lewis\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tPest Management Expert\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tLuke Lewis is a Pest Management Expert and the Founder and President of Native Pest Management.

Depending on the climate and conditions where you plan on planting your irises, one variety may be a better choice. Below is information on just a few of the most common iris varieties:\nSiberian Iris: Despite its name, native to Central and Eastern Europe and Turkey. One of the most adaptable irises — very easy to grow and maintain. Do especially well in temperate climates.\nLouisiana Iris: Native to the hot, humid southeastern United States. In spite of this, grows well in a wide variety of conditions. However, they will not bloom well if they receive less than an inch of water or so during hot growing season months.\nBeardless Iris: Native to Central and Southern Europe. Do well with at least half a day of full sun. Can even survive constant sun though this is not necessarily preferable. <img> Plant in late summer. Most Irises are best planted in late summer (early fall at the latest). This gives the iris a chance to establish its roots while there is still enough sunlight to fuel its growth so that it can survive the winter. For most Iris varieties, July and August are the best months for planting.\nNote, however, that in areas with long summers and mild winters, you can get away with planting irises as late as September or even October — in these cases, there's usually still enough sunlight to help the plant grow its roots before winter. <img> Pick a spot with about six to eight hours of full sun per day. Most irises thrive if given generous amounts of sunlight. You won't necessarily want your iris to be in constant sun (though they can still do well in these situations), but they can usually stand more sun than similarly-sized flowers. Try planting your irises in a flowerbed that receives the shade of a tree late in the day or on the side of your house that the sun hits in the afternoon for a good amount of light. <img> Plant in slightly acidic soil with good drainage. Irises prefer soils that are neutral to slightly acidic — a pH of about 6.8-7.0 is best. In addition, irises require soil with a good amount of aeration and drainage. This is important for preventing root rot, which irises can be susceptible to if over-watered.\nFor heavy, clay-rich soils with bad drainage, try adding humus or organic matter to improve the permeability of the soil.\nPlanting on a slope or in a raised flower bed can help with drainage — in these cases, water will naturally run away from the iris. <img> Plant the rhizome so that its top is exposed. One common mistake first-timers make when planting irises is to plant them too deep. Unlike most plants, irises do best when their rhizome — the brown, root-like structure at their base resembling a potato — is slightly exposed to the air. The plant's roots should be arranged so that they spread downward beneath the rhizome.\nNote that in very hot climates, covering the rhizomes with a thin layer of dirt (no more than an inch or so) can help protect them from drying out. <img> Plant the rhizomes so that they are spaced apart. More so than other flowers, irises have a tendency to grow together when they're planted near one another. When this happens, the plants can compete for the same soil, water and nutrients, hampering each others' growth. To prevent this, try to plant your irises' rhizomes at least one to two feet apart.\nEven with this preventative measure, after a few years, your irises may grow together anyway. If this happens, don't worry — you can fix this by simply digging up some of the rhizomes and replanting them farther away to \"thin out\" your flowers. <img> If the growing conditions are unfavorable, pot the iris. Depending on where you live and what time of the year it is, conditions outdoors may not be suitable for growing new plants. Rather than plant your irises in the soil outside when they're not likely to do well, instead, get them started in a pot. This allows you to carefully control the amount of time that the plants are exposed to the weather outside until it improves and you can transfer them to the garden. If conditions are very bad, like, for instance, if there's heavy frost, you can even keep the plants indoors 24/7.\nFor most irises, a 12-inch pot will work well. Exceptionally small irises can do well in 6-to-8-inch pots.\nRegardless of the size of pot you use, make sure it has good drainage — at least one big hole on the bottom (or several smaller ones) for the water to drain out of. <img> ", "Water generously after planting. After you plant your irises, give them a thorough watering. If conditions are dry, water every 7 to 10 days or as needed during the morning or evening. Assuming you planted your irises in the late summer or early fall, you may stop watering your plants as soon as the weather cools and it begins raining or snowing.\nOne common mistake to avoid with your irises is over-watering. If the rhizome or roots are held in contact with moisture without being given a chance to drain, root rot can set in. This fungal condition can be potentially fatal for the iris and easily spreads to nearby plants, so prevention is key. <img> Taper watering off as the plant becomes established. Over time, your plant will require less and less watering on your part. Once the weather takes a turn for the cooler in the fall, you can stop watering until the next summer growing season. In general, your iris should require less watering with each subsequent summer — for climates with mild summers, it's possible\nThe exception here is for areas with very hot, dry summers. In these cases, some watering may be necessary every summer to keep the iris from drying out. Though irises are quite durable, they can't survive in extreme conditions without help. <img> Keep rhizomes uncovered and roots well-aerated. As the iris grows, you'll want to periodically check to make sure that the rhizome hasn't become covered with dirt, organic matter, or other debris. If it has, gently brush it off without moving the plant itself or disturbing its roots. In addition, make sure that the soil still has good aeration and drainage — if it doesn't, add humus or organic matter as needed. <img> Trim brown or dying leaf matter and the flower stalk. Unlike high-maintenance garden plants, iris leaves don't require pruning or trimming for good growth. In fact, leaving the leaves undisturbed even after the growing season allows the iris to gain more nutrients from photosynthesis for next year's growth. In general, the only sort of trimming you should need to do for iris leaves is to remove brown, dead leaf tissue that has already died — this provides no benefit to the plant.\nNote that, before winter, you may also want to cut the flower stalk to its base. If the flower dies during winter and falls at the base of the plant, it can cause rot to spread to the rhizome as it decays. <img> ", "Protect the plants in preparation for winter. As the plant's roots establish themselves throughout the late summer and early fall, you may want to put some thought to how you plan to protect your irises once the weather grows cold, especially if you live in an area with exceptionally cold winters. Snowfall can naturally protect the soil from the cracking and heaving that can occur during very cold weather and dislodge the rhizomes.\nIf your area doesn't reliably get snowfall, you may want to spread a loose mulch (like evergreen bough) across the ground to protect the soil. Don't apply a thick layer of mulch — this can actually trap moisture in the soil and cause rot.\nDestroy any irises exposed to heavy frost — left to rot, these plants can become havens for borer eggs. <img> Weed and protect against pests in the spring. As the weather begins to warm, you can allow any snow to melt naturally and/or remove any protective mulches you used in the winter. As new plants begin to sprout up, keep a keen eye out for any weeds near your irises and pull them out as early as possible. Use environmentally-friendly herbicides or weed killers to keep grasses and weed away from the bases of your irises.\nIn addition, you'll want to be wary of any encroaching pests, especially slugs. There are many, many ways to bait slugs, from commercial products to improvised home solutions. One very easy way to do this is to make a beer trap — fill a wide-mouthed jar halfway up with beer and bury it up to the rim of the jar in the soil. Slugs, attracted to the beer, will fall in and drown. <img> Monitor growth and give nutrients in the spring. Irises can benefit from the occasional light application of fertilizer starting the growing season after you plant it. Don't use a fertilizer high in nitrogen — this can cause excessive foliage growth (and, eventually, rot). Water after dispensing the fertilizer to avoid fertilizer \"burn\". Below is a selection of fertilizers that are acceptable to use with irises:\nGeneral purpose \"5-10-10\" fertilizer\nGeneral purpose \"5-10-5\" fertilizer\nBone meal\nSuperphosphate <img> Repeat the cycle as needed! As the iris grows more mature, the amount of time you'll need to spend maintaining it should decrease drastically. Still, even when your plant has been established for years, it's a good idea to give it a check up every few weeks just to ensure that there are no problems with it. As long as the plant is receiving good sun during the growing season, occasional rainwater, and nutrients from the soil, it should be just fine. Irises are perennials, and they'll gradually spread from the roots over many growing seasons.\nEvery three to five years, you’ll want to divide the irises in crowded flower beds and replant them to avoid competition for water and soil. <img> " ]

If you don't already know the width of your walls, you will need to measure them. Select pieces that closely match the width of your walls and purchase them.\nFor most rooms, 8 foot (240 cm) long pieces are easier to work with.\nQuarter round is available at most home improvement stores. <img> Line up your quarter round against the wall and make pencil marks. Place your pieces of quarter round on the floor up against the wall. In this position, you can easily mark the locations for your cuts. Make small pencil marks to indicate the places where you will need to trim your quarter round. <img> Determine the angle and direction of your cut. Each piece of quarter round will end at either a joint, a corner, or a door jamb. Quarter round will always be cut at an angle, usually 45 degrees.\nCut 2 joint pieces at 45-degree angles in the same direction (meaning both angled to the left, or both to the right). These joint pieces should fit together to form a flat line against the wall.\nMost corners will be 90-degree angles. For most corners, cut corner pieces at 45-degree angles in opposite directions (one to the left and one to the right, so that they fit together).\nFor corners that are very different from 90 degrees, measure the angle with a protractor, and divide this number by 2 to determine the angle of your cuts.\nIf your quarter round will end at an obstruction, cut at a 45-degree angle and attach a quarter round return. <img> Use a miter box and hand saw to cut your quarter round. Slide a piece of quarter round into your miter box and use the pins to secure it. Locate the slot that represents the correct angle for your cut. Steady the miter box with your non-dominant hand, and hold the saw in your dominant hand. Apply pressure with the saw and move it back and forth over the quarter round until your cut is finished.\nA miter box and saw set can be purchased at most home improvement stores, or online.\nRemember to wear gloves and protective eye wear.\nAlways exercise caution when using a saw. <img> ", "Line up your quarter round and make marks with a pencil.

[ "Carry your bag in front of you and low to the ground as you walk down the aisle in search of your seat. Holding it up and at your sides will inevitably knock seated passengers on their arms, shoulders, and heads. You can pull it along if it has wheels. <img> Utilize the overhead space above your own seat row. Do not place your bags in the overhead at the front of the plane unless you are sitting in that row. Don't put your bag in a bin near the front of the plane for a quick exit -- it means someone else will have to wait until the entire plane has emptied to walk back to get their bag. Taking the storage space of other passengers is rude and can potentially delay departure as they search for storage. <img> Avoid hogging the aisle. Remember that space is limited on board. Always be swift and alert while putting things in the overhead lockers, as other people need the aisle space to get around you and to their seat. Place the items that you will frequently use in your seat back pocket or under the seat in front of you. <img> Take care when retrieving luggage from the overhead compartment! It may be positioned to fall on you or someone else. If you have a lot of bulky, heavy luggage in the overhead bin, wait until others have left before standing and blocking other people from leaving the plane (they may have another flight to get to), or ask somebody to help you get your luggage down while everybody is waiting to leave the plane. This will help with traffic flow and allows all passengers to leave the plane as fast as possible. <img> ", "Keep your chair upright at least until you're told it can be reclined. Don't lean your chair back as soon as you get on. If you do decide to recline your chair when you can, do it slowly. Otherwise, you risk bumping the head of the unsuspecting passenger behind you who's getting something from the bag at their feet, or you could knock over the drink on their tray. Remember to return the seat back to the upright position during meal and drink servings, or if possible, wait until food and beverages are finished being served and cleaned up. <img> Check behind you—is that person tall, or do they have a child on their lap? If so, consider keeping your seat upright out of consideration, especially if it's a short flight. By reclining, you're taking space away from the passenger behind you; you may be more comfortable, but at someone else's expense. You can also ask them if reclining your seat would be all right. If you're someone who can't make yourself comfortable without reclining, then do your best to choose an aisle, bulkhead, or exit row seat when booking the flight so the person behind you has extra space. <img> Choose a bulkhead or exit row seat if you're a tall/big person or have a child on your lap and know that having the seat in front of you reclined will make you uncomfortable, (unless you have a child, in which case you should never choose an exit row seat). Not only will you have more space, but the person in front of you will also have more space and may decide not to recline their seat out of consideration for you. If you sit in the middle, however, the person in front of you is cramped, as well, and will probably want to recline their seat, whether you like it or not. <img> Keep an eye on any children you're traveling with. Children have a tendency to bump, kick, or yank the seat in front of them without realizing it throughout the flight, which can make the person in front of them very uncomfortable. It's difficult enough to control some children on a long flight, but it's even more difficult to deal with an angry passenger in front of you.\nIf your child(ren) has difficulty flying, do everything you can to relax the child so you do not disturb other passengers nearby. Bring plenty of books, games, snacks and other things to keep your child quietly occupied.\nYou can also try walking to the galley area of the plane to stretch your child's legs.\nChange diapers in the restroom on the plane. In most restrooms there are changing tables and trash bins for diaper disposal.\nWhen breastfeeding, use a drape, both for your own privacy and for the comfort of other passengers. <img> Avoid getting involved further if a passenger breaches etiquette by doing something like constantly thumping or yanking your seat back, and refuses your polite request not to do so. Instead, ask a flight attendant to handle the situation, and if they can't or even won't (this does happen), ask politely but insistently for the chief flight attendant (purser) to handle it. <img> Avoid grabbing the back of the seat in front of you. Grabbing the seat back as you walk in the aisle or in your row can be unpleasantly jarring to the person sitting in it. Copy the flight attendants who balance themselves in the aisle by grabbing the luggage compartments above their heads, rather than the seat backs. <img> ", "Respect other's willingness to talk. No matter how much you love to make new friends on the plane, the person next to you might rather get some work done, or simply may not feel like being chatty. If a friendly comment gets a minimal answer, take the hint and leave them be. If you're traveling with children, try to avoid letting them think of passengers as playmates. Some passengers will smile to be polite, but may not be interested in playing \"peek a boo\" with the child. <img> Keep in mind your screen is visible to those behind you if you want to watch a movie on your personal DVD player. If your movie has nudity, graphic violence, etc. it may offend the more sensitive viewers (e.g. children) looking on. Using a smaller, handheld device to view movies, such as an iPod Touch, may be more practical in this situation. <img> Watch your elbows. If you're reading a newspaper or using a laptop, try not to let your elbows \"spill over\" onto someone else's personal space. Do your best not to hog the arm rests, especially if the person next to you is in the middle and has limited space to begin with.\nMake use of your own arm rest and headphone plug outlet. Don't use someone else's because it's more convenient for you. <img> Keep your stuff close. If you put a bag or a jacket at your feet, don't let it spill over onto the legs or feet of the person sitting next to you. <img> Get your own reading material—don't read theirs. They'll notice, and it's nosy and rude.\nIf you're stuck in an aisle seat but still want to enjoy the view, don't lean over the person next to you to look out the window. <img> Pack headphones for any portable electronics, especially games and DVD players. Hearing someone else's music and sounds can be very irritating. <img> Avoid getting drunk during (or before) the flight. You may be having the time of your life, but your fellow passengers may not think so (there are airlines which don't allow any passengers on board suspected of being over the limit on alcohol consumption). <img> Do not start or join phone calls or group meetings. This includes voice-over-IP services like Skype and group call services like Discord. Phone conversations, especially on Wi-Fi, can be a nuisance to other passengers; as such, many airlines and the FCC do not support use of airplane Wi-Fi for phone calls. Keep those for while you are on the ground in your hotel room.", "Be considerate of other passengers when you exit the plane. Resist the urge to push your way out first; let those nearest to the exit disembark the plane first. When your turn comes, move quickly so people with connecting flights can make it in time. <img> Think ahead and book your flight early if you know you'll need a connecting flight. This way, you can get a seat up front and exit quickly. <img> Get up to use the lavatory or walk around only when necessary. Go through your carry-on luggage at intervals. If you need something, think ahead and retrieve items you might need later on during the flight. <img> Avoid yanking on the seat in front of you for support when you get up; use the seat armrests. If you want to get up but there is one or more passengers between you and the aisle, politely request that they get up to let you pass.

[ "Face your fear. Determine what you are afraid of and challenge it. When it comes to being fearful of sex, you need to know what has caused you to be afraid. Identifying specific fears will help you focus on finding a solution.\nSit down and make a list of the things you fear about sex. For example, you may not know how to approach the subject, you might be afraid of doing something wrong, or you're embarrassed of how you look naked.\nChallenge your fears by listing possible solutions to resolve your fears. For example, if you don't know how to approach the subject with someone, ask a trusted friend how they do it, or find someone who does it well and model his behavior. Even watching a romantic movie might help.\nIf you are afraid of doing something wrong, you need to study the subject and figure out what techniques work best for you. Preparation and knowledge will lessen any fear. <img> Educate yourself on human anatomy and physiology. The structure and function of the human body have been studied for centuries. There are volumes of information you can refer to if you are unaware of some or all parts of the female or male anatomy.\nIf your fear is related to not knowing enough about a woman's and man's external genitalia, then it is time to get educated.\nThe female genitalia includes: the vagina, a tubular organ connecting the genitals with the uterus; the uterus, a hollow muscular organ where a fetus grows during pregnancy; the vulva includes all the visible external aspects (mons pubis, labia majora, labia minora, clitoris, urethra, vaginal vestibule, perineal body); glans, the tip of the clitoris that is a highly sensitive organ.\nThe male genitalia includes: the penis, cylindrical mass of penile tissue; the testes, oval, glandular organs contained inside the skin pouch called the scrotum; glans, the structure at the tip of the penis.\nThe four stages of sexual response are: excitement, plateau, orgasm, and refractory period.\nAn orgasm is a genital reflex governed by the nerves in the spinal cord and is experienced differently by women and men.\nOnce you understand the basic structure and function of relevant body parts, you will feel more in command of yourself and your fears about sexual activity. <img> Make a plan of action. Most fears are conquered by devising a plan of action. Overcoming a fear of sex is no exception. Identify what your main objectives are, set up steps to take and follow your plan.\nMake a list of the things you fear. Is your fear related to the possible sexual encounter you might have during a date? Therefore, does the thought of asking someone on a date scare you? Are you concerned with looking good, having bad breath, or sweating too much?\nApproach your dilemma one step at a time. For example, if you are afraid to ask someone on a date, start by first asking a stranger what time it is. Although you won't be asking the person on a date or to have a sexual encounter, you will gain experience approaching someone and asking them a question. This is the first step toward your goal.\nWorking toward a solution will help lessen your fear. Creating a plan of action helps you feel like you can do something to improve your situation. <img> Practice. To overcome a fear of sex you need to gradually work your way through the process. Research indicates that overcoming a fear is aided when a person faces the fear in an imagined situation or a live experience. Developing a positive habit is the desired goal.\nLearn how to please yourself. Determine what feels good to you by touching yourself, imagining an interaction with someone, or using sexual accessories designed to arouse.\nWith a willing participant, build your experience over time in the areas of communicating your feelings, holding hands, kissing, massage, sexual touching and eventually intercourse. Do not pressure yourself into doing too much too soon. This may only add to the fear you are feeling. <img> Be open with your emotions. When communicating with someone you care about be kind and caring and show them you are emotionally open. Sex is an emotional experience, so be mindful of this when speaking and when spoken to.\nIf you are physically or emotionally uncomfortable in any way, tell the person you are with and take the time you need to get to a place of comfort. For example, if you feel rushed or physically ill say, “I've got to stop right here. I'm not comfortable.”\nAvoid jumping into sexual situations too quickly. The results could be dangerous. You can still be emotionally open with someone and show discretion about how far you will allow yourself to be involved. <img> Remember to have fun. Sexual interactions are supposed to be enjoyable so relax and engage in the excitement of it all. Focusing on having fun will distract you from being fearful.\nLightening the mood during a sexual encounter will allow you to feel free. For example, be playful and silly and laugh at yourself. It will set you both at ease.", "Address your physical functioning. The human body is amazing. Yours is unique and needs to be taken care of so you will have confidence with your sexual abilities. Eating right, getting an appropriate amount of sleep, and exercising will help you maintain great health and a positive sense of yourself.\nCertain drugs and alcohol will affect your physical functioning. Avoid them to eliminate lingering fear.\nIf you do have difficulty getting and maintaining an erection, see a doctor who is specifically trained to manage these issues.\nErectile dysfunction is usually attributed to a poor blood supply to the penis. Eating foods that promote good vascular health and following a healthy-heart related plan may help the condition. A diet high in vegetables and fruits, whole grains, fiber, lean meats, and low-fat dairy products is recommended. <img> Relax your expectations to improve performance. Placing undue pressure upon yourself does not work to your advantage. If you have a fear of not being able to perform and meet your partner's needs, then you must adjust your mindset.\nMen tend to be competitive about many things in life, which isn't always healthy. It becomes a problem when it causes you so much stress during a sexual encounter that you are more focused on “winning” than on enjoying each other's company. Being overly focused on winning indicates you seek high levels of external validation.\nShift your thinking toward the sharing aspects of your interaction. This will move your focus from yourself to the experience itself and your partner.\nDon't judge yourself. Your self-worth is not dependent upon your sexual performance. You are an entire person with many positive qualities and abilities. Don't let one aspect of your life define you.\nWrite a list of some of your positive attributes, and how they benefit you and the people around you. <img> Improve your emotional vocabulary. It is a common struggle to figure out how you feel and communicate it clearly to someone. Frustration can set in when you don't know what you feel. You may be afraid of saying the wrong thing or not saying what you really mean.\nStart by writing about the feelings you are having. Writing helps to organize your thoughts about your fears and clarifies what you are feeling. Your writing doesn't have to be perfect. The important thing to do is to pull your emotions up from your subconscious to acknowledge them, and then you can process them.\nIf there is something you want to tell someone, rehearse it ahead of time. Visualize yourself meeting with the person and having a good conversation.\nDon't feel pressured to give your feelings a label. You don't need to give everything a perfect name in order for it to be real. Perhaps you feel a little unsteady and a bit nervous and excited, but a little nauseous at the same time. This may translate to feeling love or infatuation for someone. It can be confusing. <img> ", "Make sure you are safe. A woman's primary concern when engaging in any sexual activities is her safety. Taking precautions will help alleviate your fears toward being emotionally or physically harmed. Whether you have a fear of getting pregnant, of losing your virginity, or your parents finding out, securing your safety will help manage all of them.\nYou have control over your body. Avoid those things that cause you to lose control like alcohol or drugs.\nMake sure you feel comfortable and are ready for sexual activity.\nAlways make sure someone knows where you are when there is a potential to engage in sexual activity with someone.\nGuard against pregnancy by using a form of birth control. The fear of getting pregnant can motivate you to make good choices. <img> Don't compare yourself to others. Competing or comparing yourself to others in a group can be dangerous. Becoming sexually active is a turning point for everyone. You must resist the pressures of trying to fit in or make someone like you by offering sexual favors.\nYour sexual development is a very personal and unique part of your life. It is your experience so you must take ownership of it. Don't allow others to negatively influence your decisions. You must learn to set boundaries with confidence, which will help fight off any fears you have.\nFor example, someone shows you a lot of attention and you end up dating. Your affection grows for the person, but not as fast as the person would like. They say to you, “I'm really interested in a lot of people and I thought we would be having sex by this point. When are we going to have sex? Don't you like me?”\nAn effective response would be, “I like you a lot and I'm enjoying the fact that we are getting closer. I appreciate that you've been patient with me. However, my choice to have sex with you will never be something I rush into. If you need to date someone else, then I have no other choice but to let you go.” <img> Assert your right to say, “no.” Sexual assault, dating or domestic violence, and stalking are very serious matters. As a woman, or anyone, you must be clear about your intentions when faced with a possible sexual encounter. You have the ability to stop an interaction at any time. When you say, “No!” and “Stop” it means “Stop!”Look out for yourself as if you were looking out for your best friend. If you sense danger in any situation, always follow your intuition. Be comfortable with changing your plans, your mind, and those you date. Trust your instincts.\nThe important thing to remember is you must trust the person you are with so you can make clear, well-informed decisions.", "Find a therapist. If you are avoiding sexual contact and the thought of having sex causes you to feel excessive and unreasonable anxiety or panic, you should seek help from a professional therapist. This may be signs of a phobia rather than a normal fear response.\nThe physical symptoms of a phobia include: sweating, shaking, feeling lightheaded, and having difficulty breathing. A counselor can help you manage these symptoms and the condition.\nSee a therapist if you have sexual abuse in your history, which may hinder your enjoyment of sexual activity. Talking with a counselor and processing those traumas will lead to a positive relationship with others. <img> Learn relaxation techniques. When everyone relaxes, everyone benefits. Approaching an intimate situation with a sense of calm will stave off fear, and enhance your enjoyment.\nRelaxation techniques include guided imagery, biofeedback, and breathing exercises. These will help you lower the stress and fear you feel. Use these techniques prior to interacting with someone.\nGuided imagery involves focusing on calming images and can be done by yourself or with help from a therapist.\nBiofeedback is a technique that trains you to lower your heart rate and blood pressure, which are associated with fear.\nBreathing exercises help to calm the nervous system associated with the fight-or-flight response, which is triggered when you feel fear.\nIf fear takes a hold of you when you are with someone in an intimate situation, pause and take a minute to breath and tap into the relaxation skills you have learned. <img> Challenge your negative thoughts. Your thoughts affect your emotions. There is a tendency to overestimate the negative outcomes before you experience them, and underestimate your ability to cope with and manage a situation. These thoughts are imbalanced and need to be challenged.\nFor example, you are extremely nervous and afraid that you will throw up on your date when you are kissing. Challenge the thought by saying, “You cannot predict the future and you have never thrown up on anyone. If you feel nauseous excuse yourself and go to the bathroom. You can handle it.”\nYou are stronger than you think. If you feel you lack adequate coping skills, improve them. For example, take notice of the way you effectively cope with another type of fear in your life and apply the same technique. Also, observe how someone you admire copes with difficult situations. Ask them for suggestions that you can implement.\nUse positive self-talk to calm your thoughts and nerves. For example, if you feel your fear, anxiety or stress increase, tell yourself, “You are fine. This is going to be fun. You are not going to be embarrassed. Have a good time.” <img> " ]

The stabilizer film will keep the resin contained in the crack.\nAdd a small amount of resin at a time. If you apply too much too quickly it could form an uneven bulge under the film. <img> Wait 20 minutes to allow the resin to harden. After you apply the resin to the crack, slowly pull the tip of the syringe out of the stabilizer film. Leave the resin undisturbed for at least 10 minutes so it can start to set and harden in the crack.\nCheck the packaging of the resin adhesive for specific drying times.\nSet an alarm on your phone or clock for 20 minutes. <img> ", "Peel off the stabilizer film. Use your fingernails to pry up a corner of the stabilizer film. Use 1 smooth motion to gently remove the film by peeling it off.\nDon’t use quick or jerky movements or you could tear off a section of the film.\nUse a razor blade to get underneath the film if you can’t peel it off with your fingertips. <img> Add a drop of the resin over the crack and cover it with the curing film. Use the syringe to squeeze out a small drop of the resin adhesive over the freshly filled crack. Take the curing film and press it over the crack. The small drop of resin will spread out under the film to cover the crack.\nUse your fingers or a razor blade to smooth out the curing film and remove any bubbles from beneath it.Tip: If you need to use more than 1 curing film to cover the crack, add a drop of resin for each film that you need to place. Make sure you cover the entire crack! <img> Wait 1 hour to allow the resin to cure. Leave the curing film completely undisturbed to allow the resin to fully set and cure in the crack.\nCheck the packaging of the resin for the specific curing time.\nAim a fan at the mirror to help it cure faster.\nSet an alarm for an hour so you can be sure when the resin is done curing. <img> Remove the curing film and scrape away the excess resin. Pry up a corner of the curing film with your fingertips and gently peel it off. Try to use 1 smooth, fluid motion so the strip comes off cleanly. Take a razor blade or a utility knife and gently scrape over the top of the crack to remove any excess resin.\nBe careful not to scratch the resin of the glass of the mirror.\nAngle the razor blade or utility knife so it’s parallel with the surface to run it over the crack evenly. <img> Clean the area with glass cleaner. Polish the repaired mirror by spraying some glass cleaner over the entire surface. Use a clean cloth and rub the mirror in circular motions to buff it clean.\nDon’t saturate the mirror with glass cleaner.\nYou can find glass cleaner at department stores and online. <img> " ]

[ "Leave the fish in their tank when you’re doing routine maintenance. If the tank is large enough that you can clean a section of it while your fish hang out at the other end, then you should be able to do most cleaning tasks without removing them. You can clean decorations by removing a few at a time, scrub sections of the tank’s walls, and even clean sections of gravel all without having to take your fish out.\nAvoid removing your fish from their tank often. It can be shocking and stressful and can sometimes make them sick. <img> Transfer the fish from their tank when you need to do a deep cleaning. This hopefully won’t happen very often, but when it does, it is essential to put your fish into a separate container as you clean their aquarium. You may also need to relocate your fish if their tank is too small for you to clean it without potentially injuring them.\nIf your tank is maintained regularly, you shouldn’t have to do extensive cleaning more than once every 6 months.\nTanks that don’t have water pumps, filters, and other maintenance-equipment pieces do need to be cleaned by hand more often than larger aquariums. <img> Remove the aquarium decorations before you actually remove any fish. Wash your hands before reaching into the tank, and consider wearing clean rubber gloves to help protect your fish from any bacteria you might be carrying. Set the decorations to the side on a clean surface so you can clean them later.\nConsider cleaning the decorations before removing the fish from the tank. That way, the fish will be out of their habitat for less time than if you were to wait to clean the decorations. <img> Rinse out a container that is large enough to hold your fish. The container definitely doesn’t need to be as large as your tank, but it needs to be big enough that the fish will still have room to swim around a bit. Choose a container that is deep enough that your fish won’t be able to accidentally jump out of it. Rinse it with cool water to remove any dust or debris.\nNever use soap or a chemical cleaner to prepare the container for your fish. Even if it’s rinsed off well, the remnants could still be harmful to your fish.\nIf you have a small tank with just 1 or 2 fish, you could even use a large mug. <img> Fill the container part way with water from the aquarium. Transfer water directly from the aquarium to the rinsed container, using a clean glass or measuring cup. Make the water deep enough that the fish can easily swim without scraping the bottom of the container.\nThis will help keep your fish from going into shock. It won’t have to worry about adjusting to a different temperature or pH balance because it’ll be in the same water.\nBoth saltwater and freshwater fish are sensitive to the temperature and chemical levels in the water. Never put any fish directly into tap water. <img> Scoop the fish out with a net and transfer them to the container. Be as gentle as possible, and try to transfer just 1 fish at a time. Once the fish is in the net, cover the top with your hand so they can’t wriggle out, and then submerge the net in the container and let the fish swim out on their own.\nNever drop fish into the water from a height or try to flip them out of the net.\nSome fish are really fast swimmers and can be hard to catch, so be patient. Try to avoid pinning fish against the wall if you can. You may even want to use 2 nets to trap a fast-swimming fish. <img> ", "Clean the tank as quickly and as thoroughly as you can. Because the whole transferring process can be stressful to your fish, as can just being away from its normal habitat, try to work as quickly as you can to clean the tank. Plan out what you need to do beforehand and lay out the equipment you’ll need to use so everything is easily accessible.\nNever leave your fish in the temporary container overnight. Make sure you set aside enough time to completely clean the tank all at once so that they’re back at home within a few hours at the most. <img> Scrub the algae off the walls if it has become overgrown. Do this before removing any water. Sometimes the chemical balances in the water can make excessive algae grow and cover your tank, and it gets to be too much for your normal filtration system to handle. If this happens, use an algae scrubber to remove the visible sections of algae. You can also use your aquarium vacuum to siphon away any algae that is on the bottom of the tank.\nIf some sections are really stuck on, use a razor blade to scrape it off. Just be very careful to not accidentally hurt yourself.\tEXPERT TIP\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tDoug Ludemann\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tProfessional Aquarist\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tDoug Ludemann is the owner and operator of Fish Geeks, LLC, an aquarium services company based in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Doug has worked in the aquarium and fish-care industry for over 20 years, including having worked as a professional aquarist for the Minnesota Zoo and Shedd Aquarium in Chicago. He received his Bachelor of Science in Ecology, Evolution, and Behavior from the University of Minnesota.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tDoug Ludemann\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tProfessional Aquarist\t\t\t\tThe key to removing algae is exporting the nutrients that cause algae to grow. The cheapest way to do this is through water changes. You can also try protein skimming, which eliminates compounds from the water instead of only trapping them in a filter where they can break down and cause algae. <img> Change 20% to 25% of the water if the tank is excessively dirty. Normal tank maintenance has you replace 10% to 15% of the water on a weekly basis, but sometimes you might need to do a little more. For example, if your tank hasn’t been cleaned in several weeks, or if your fish have started to get sick or die, you might need to do a larger change than you normally would. Keep in mind:\nIf you have a saltwater aquarium, you will need to check the saline, pH, and ammonia levels and get them back to a normal range before replacing your fish.\nIf you have a freshwater aquarium, you will need to pay attention to the water temperature and dechlorinate the water before you add it to the tank. <img> Transfer the fish back to the aquarium once you’re done cleaning. Once the tank is clean, gently net the fish and put them back into the aquarium. Remember to move 1 fish at a time and to lower the net into the aquarium to safely release them.\nDon’t forget to feed your fish once they’re back home. <img> ", "Change 10% to 15% of the tank’s water every week. Fill up a bucket (always use a clean bucket that has never been washed with chemicals or detergents) with tap water for a freshwater tank or reverse-osmosis water or distilled water for a saltwater tank. Check that the water temperature is the same as the water currently in the aquarium. For a freshwater tank, add in a de-chlorinator to treat the water. For a saltwater tank, treat the water with an aquarium-specific saline solution. Then use an automatic water changer to siphon off old water and replace it with the new water.\nIf you don’t have an automatic water changer, you’ll need to haul off several buckets-full of water manually and replace them with the fresh water.\nDon’t just “top off” the tank to replace water that has evaporated. The water still has some built-up impurities that need to be replaced, and that’s only done by removing and replacing water. <img> Clean out the filters on a bi-weekly or monthly basis. Fill a small, clean bowl with water from the aquarium. Remove the filters and rinse them out in the bowl. Never use tap water, because that can remove the good bacteria that you need to keep your tank healthy. Replace the filters right away.\nIf the tubing for the filters looks dirty, use a pipe cleaner or filter brush to scrub them clean, too. <img> Scrub away algae from the walls of the aquarium bi-weekly. Use an algae scrubber to scrape down the sides of the tank, working from the top of the tank down to the bottom. Make sure your hands are clean before you put them into the tank, or wear clean rubber gloves to do this work.\nNever use a dish sponge or rag to clean the tank. These could introduce harmful bacteria to your aquarium.\nIf you don’t already, think about getting some algae-eating creatures to help keep your tank clean. <img> Siphon the gravel every 2 weeks to clean away waste. Use your aquarium vacuum by sticking one end into the gravel and following the manufacturer’s instructions. Vacuum the bottom of the tank back and forth until the water coming out the other end starts to run clear.\nYou usually don’t need to clean all of the gravel. Rather, try cleaning just 1/4 to 1/2 of it. This will leave some of the healthy bacteria in place that helps keep your aquarium’s habitat running. <img> Remove and clean the tank decorations when they get visibly dirty. When you notice that the decorations in the tank are starting to get covered in algae, take a few minutes to remove the item and clean it off. Just clean 1 item at a time to keep from disrupting your fish.\nNever use chemical cleaners or soap to clean aquarium decorations. <img> " ]

However, if you don't have a red wine glass, any wine glass or slightly rounded glass cup will do! <img> ", "For wine-tasting, a standard pour is around half the size of a normal pour. Typically, this means you will pour about 90 millilitres (3.0 fl oz). There should be plenty of room in the glass so that you can swirl the wine around and dip their nose into the glass without it touching the wine.\nA bottle of wine has roughly 10 tasting servings. For a party of 8-10 people, you will need at least two bottles of each wine that you want everyone to taste. <img> ", "This prevents your fingertips from heating up the wine and changing the wine's flavor. Plus, you don’t want to leave smudges on the wine glass, which are never attractive!\nMost people hold the glass towards the base of the stem. Grip the stem with your thumb and index finger, and rest your remaining fingers on the base for stability. <img> ", "Take time to observe the wine from every angle. Look straight down the center of the glass to see the depth of the wine's color. Then, tilt the glass to the side and hold it up to the light to see how clear the wine looks. Give the glass a good swirl to see if the wine forms “legs” that run down the side of the glass like raindrops.\nThe clarity of a wine will tell you about the quality of its craftsmanship. If a wine is murky, it might have had some problems in the fermentation process or was unfiltered.\nThe “legs” of the wine that are created by swirling it in a glass will tell you how rich and dense the wine is. The bigger the “legs” the bolder the flavors and alcohol content. <img> ", "A wine's aroma is an important part of its flavor profile. Swirl the wine in your glass to expose more of the wine's surface area to the air. This brings out the scents and flavors in the wine. Stick your entire nose into the glass and inhale deeply.\nThe senses of smell and taste are closely linked, so be sure to give the wine a good sniff between each sip.\nIt's ok if you don't smell a lot at first! The more you smell wines, the more you'll learn to distinguish individual flavors, like fruity, smoky, and earthy tones. <img> ", "Hold enough wine in your mouth to completely cover your tongue. Lightly swish the wine around your mouth so that it coats your entire palate. Swallow the wine after it has been in your mouth for at least ten seconds.\nYou can draw in some air between your teeth to further enhance the flavor. Your tongue only has the four basic tastes (sweet, salty, bitter, and acidic), so pulling air across the wine in your mouth will bring out the aromas that can be detected by the nasal passage along the back of your throat. This is sometimes called “chewing” the wine. <img> ", "Cabernet Sauvignon is very popular and served all over the world. It has flavors of black cherry, currants, and a touch of bell peppers. Often, Cabernet Sauvignons have a slightly oaky scent with traces of herbs and vanilla.\nCabernet Sauvignons are a great red wine to try out because they straddle the line between dry and sweet. <img> ", "Cabernet Sauvignon goes perfectly with hearty meat dishes like roasted lamb or beef. If you are looking to make a great steak taste even better, try it with a glass of Cabernet Sauvignon.\nMost Cabernet Sauvignons have strong tannins, which refresh your palate after every bit of meat. <img> ", "Merlots are easy to enjoy and can fit many situations. However, they typically lack complexity compared to other red wines. They have rich, fruity flavors that might remind you of strawberries, cherries, plums, and even watermelon.\nIf you tend to have a sweeter palate, Merlots might be for you. Although not all Merlots are sweet, they tend not to have strong tannins, so they won't create the sensation in your mouth that dry wines are known for. <img> ", "Merlot is a versatile wine and it pairs well with many foods. Chicken, duck, turkey, and rabbit are all popular meats that go well with Merlot. It also brings out the flavor in couscous, moussaka, goat cheese, and spicy Chinese food.\nMerlots tend to be lighter, fruity wines on the sweeter side of the spectrum. If you are eating something that is lighter and salty, chances are a Merlot will pair with it well. <img> ", "A Pinot Noir can range in flavor and aroma depending on where it was grown. They can produce the flavors of raspberries, clove, licorice, cherries, blackberries, and plums. Some have hints of roasted tomato, beets, and rose petal.\nIf you are looking for a red wine that encourages you to sit and ponder its flavor profile, Pinot Noir is for you! <img> ", "Mushrooms, truffles, and mild cheeses are ideal foods to eat with a Pinot Noir. Pinot Noirs often have a light body but have a lot of savoriness in their flavor, which balances and accentuates the earthy tones in your food.\nA drier, full-bodied Pinot Noir could also match well with roasted turkey or lamb. <img> ", "Zinfandels are known for their dark fruit flavors like black cherry, raisin, prune, and blackberry. They often have smokey and spicy undertones. Their aroma often suggests a swirl of vanilla, jam, and oak.\nZinfandels are another great way to begin your exploration of red wines. Their flavors are complex and bold. They also typically have high alcohol content. <img> ", "Sauteed mushrooms, roast venison, and pates are great options. They will complement the depth and complexity of a Red Zinfandel. They also pair well with spicy food and barbecue. Sharp cheeses like Double Gloucester, Aged Gruyere, Havarti, Gorgonzola are also great with a Zinfandel.\nIf you like smoked meats or dishes that incorporate roasted tomatoes, try them with a Red Zinfandel. This accentuates the savoriness of both the wine and the food. <img> ", "They often have a smoky fragrance that is similar to unburnt tobacco. Tempranillos originate from Spain and Portugal, and have a spicy, earthy taste with hints of cherry and plum. Usually, Tempranillos are fairly dry wines because they have an abundance of tannins.\nThe flavor of the wine varies depending on the grape variety, soil quality, and overall winemaking process. <img> ", "The zestiness of a Tempranillo makes it a great companion with all kinds of spicy food. Indian Curries, spicy barbecue, and even hot wings can be greatly enhanced by a glass of Tempranillo. Cajun food, in particular, goes well with Tempranillo. Try it with some Jambalaya, Gumbo, or a Cajun-flavored steak.\nTempranillos are difficult to pair with a cheese. If you really want to serve cheese a Tempranillo, get something soft and smokey like smoked provolone or brie. <img> ", "Badly-paired food and wine can end up making both elements taste bad. This is usually because the flavors are either too similar or too contrasting. Usually, the foods that don't work well with red wine have a white wine that compliments them well.\nUnless you are drinking a dessert red wine like a port, chocolate doesn't usually pair well with red wine. This is because the tannins in the wine and the tannins in the chocolate combine for an overwhelmingly bitter taste.\nBrussel sprouts and asparagus both contain sulfur compounds that make red wine taste like it has gone bad. Even though these vegetables have earthy flavors you might think go well with a red wine, they can ruin your meal if you combine them.\nRed wines aren't generally paired with seafood. The iron in red wine attaches with fish oil to create a fishy, metallic aftertaste. Sushi, in particular, can be ruined by pairing it with a red wine. <img> ", "Ultimately, pairing red wines with food is a matter of personal taste. Trying out new combinations can be fun and exciting, and you shouldn't let conventions dictate what you are willing to explore. <img> ", "Many wineries focus on particular types of wines. Do some research on the internet or call the winery to find out what kind of wines they offer and if they have a specialization.\nAlmost every winery will have at least some varietals of red wine, but there will be a lot of variation depending on the regional tastes and the winemaker's preferences.\nNearly all wineries offer wine tastings, but it doesn't hurt to ask when you are doing your research. You should also ask if the wine tasting is complimentary, or if there will be a charge. <img> ", "Try several varieties during your tasting. The advantage of going to a winery to take part in a tasting is that you will have the chance to try several different wines. Try to sample several wines to help you develop a sense of what you like. A wine list will usually have the wines in the order you should sample them, but a general rule is that begin with dry wines and move to sweet.\nIf you do not want to drink all of the wine at a tasting, you can spit it out into the designated receptacles after tasting it. <img> ", "Wineries employ knowledgeable people who tend to really enjoy wine. They can help guide you to certain flavors you might like and make suggestions about what food would go well with your wine. They might also be able to recommend wines that their winery does not have available that you could seek out and try on your own. <img> ", "A palate cleanser helps you really enjoy the nuances of different red wines. Often, a winery will offer saltine crackers or bread. Eat the palate cleanser and rinse your mouth with a drink of water before moving on to the next red wine.\nYou can also cleanse your palate with some fresh, lightly salted mozzarella cheese. <img> ", "This will help you to remember your favorite wines. Bring along a small notepad or record your thoughts on your phone. Jot down if you like or dislike a particular varietal and why you felt this way about it. Also, if there are particular flavors, aromas, or textures that you enjoy, you should put them down so that you remember them in the future.\nYour notes can be as basic or elaborate as you want. You could simply write which varietals you like, or you could make a detailed record of each wine's flavor profile and make a ranking system. <img> " ]

[ "Find a good etymological dictionary. To start informally studying etymology, buy or gain access to an authoritative dictionary that includes the linguistic origins of words in its definitions. The easiest way to tell that it does is if it has, “etymological” in the title. However, it may still include etymologies even if it does not include this in the title. Check a definition to see if there is a section labeled “origin” or “etymology.”\nThe most respected print dictionaries for English’s etymology include An Etymological Dictionary of Modern English, A Comprehensive Etymological Dictionary of the English Language, and The Oxford English Dictionary. The last also has an online subscription option.\nThere is also a free, well-researched online dictionary that’s specifically dedicated to etymology, available here: http://www.etymonline.com/ <img> Look for the roots. Etymologies seek the earliest origin of a word by tracing it back to its most basic components, that is, the simple words that were combined to create it in the first place. When you know the roots of a word, you can better understand how we arrived at the sound and meaning for the word that exist today.\nFor instance, the word “etymology” itself has Greek roots: “etymos,” which means, “true sense,” and “logia,” which means, “study of.”\nBesides helping you to understand the origin of a word, knowing its roots can help you understand other words with similar roots. In the case of “etymology,” you’ll note that the root “logia,” which means “the study of,” appears in multiple other places in modern English, from “biology” to “astrology.”\nTake note of any patterns you find, particularly if you’re working with the etymologies of multiple words. This will help streamline your studies. <img> Trace the word’s journey into English. Etymology traces not only the word’s origins but also how its meanings and spellings have developed over time. Sometimes that means that a word has traveled through more than one language on its journey into modern English.\nEtymological dictionaries will usually present this trajectory in reverse-chronological order, starting with the most recent usage and showing where each iteration came from in turn.\nIf we return to the word “etymology,” it entered into Old English as ethimolegia (\"facts of the origin and development of a word\"), from Old French etimologie, ethimologie, from Latin etymologia, from Greek etymologia (\"analysis of a word to find its true origin\"). So, it appeared in the written record of 3 languages (Greek, Latin, and French) before it entered into English. <img> Understand the dates. Most etymologies will include dates in their origins of words. These represent the first time a particular word appeared in a document written in English. (Keep in mind that a word may well have existed in spoken English a long time before that, but this is the date of the first written record of it that has survived.)\nFor example, “etymology” entered English in the 14th century but did not take on its modern spelling and definition until the 1640s. <img> Check the examples and sources. Thorough etymological dictionaries will often include documentary sources for each iteration of a word and/or examples of how a word has been used in context over time, usually through a phrase or sentence from a written document in English. This provides concrete historical evidence for the word’s origins while giving you insight into how its meaning has changed.\nFor instance, the word “queen” comes from the Middle English “quene,” which can be seen in Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales, and the Old English “cwen,” which appears in Beowulf. <img> ", "Look up words you’re curious about. Now that you know what to look for, start studying the etymology of those words that make you wonder, “Where did this come from?” It’s an entertaining way to get to know the historical meaning behind the things you say, and you’ll often be surprised about where they come from.\nIt’s also edifying to look up those words that seem so normal that you’ve taken their origins for granted. For instance, if you study the etymology of a familiar word like “nostril,” you’ll find that it comes from Old English “nosu” (nose) and “pyrel” or “thrill” (hole). It’s literally a “nose hole.” You’ll also note that “pyrel” and “thrill” once sounded alike in English, which shows how far the language has developed phonically. That also means that the word “nostril” is surprisingly related to the word “thrilling.” <img> Follow up on surprising word origins. If what you find when you look into the etymology of a particular word does not make obvious sense today, do some research to figure out why its original meaning is what it is. If you’re writing a paper on etymology, briefly discuss these origins and why they are unexpected.\nFor instance, you may wonder where a word like “disaster” came from. When you look it up, you’ll find that its Greek roots are the negative prefix “dis” and “astron” (star). So, it’s earliest meaning was something like “bad star.” This might be surprising until you consider Greek astrology and their strong belief that celestial bodies exerted control over our lives on Earth. <img> Recognize related words. Now that you know the origin of a particular word, you can use it to identify words with similar histories and therefore with related sounds and meanings.\nIn the case of etymology, there are not a lot of related words, but you can see that “etymological,” “etymologically,” and “etymologist” are all closely related forms. In the case of a word like “autopsy” with the Greek root “autos” (meaning, “self”), there’ll be a whole host of related words, from “autonomy” (self-governing) to “automobile” (self-moving) to “automatic” (self-acting). <img> ", "Get an etymology app. You can make studying etymology part of your daily routine by downloading a related app on one or more of your devices. That way, you can carry your hobby with you wherever you go. These apps can also help you understand how words have evolved from their origins and provide you with new perspectives.\nEtymology Explorer gives you engaging visual maps of word origins that are complete with full definitions, linguistic histories, and links to related words.\nWordBook is a comprehensive dictionary app with a significant etymological component that provides the word origins and links to related words for thousands of entries. <img> Take a related MOOC. Sometimes there are free Massive Online Courses available on etymology. They’re taught by qualified professors at top universities and colleges, so you’re getting a dose of higher education on word history at no charge!\nThe Open University has a free online course available on the history of the English Language that you can take at your own pace. It explores etymology alongside lexicography. <img> Go to the library. Search your local library’s online catalog for textbooks, dictionaries, studies, and other resources related to etymology. That way, you can expand your knowledge of the complex subject without paying lots of money to build your own collection of etymology books since academic books tend to be expensive.\nUniversity libraries will probably have more etymology-related resources available than public libraries.\nThis is also a great opportunity to delve into specific types of etymology that may interest you. For instance, you can get an etymology book associated with a specific language or dialect or with a particular field, like geography or medicine. <img> Do Internet research. A quick Internet search can yield tons of results about the etymologies of various words. You might even find some interesting discussion threads on the topic. You could also post a question to a forum site, like Quora, for more information.\nIf you’re looking for more academic results, try using a site like Google Scholar. Follow a related blog or podcast. There are many popular blogs and podcasts where you can read and listen to stories about etymology. Both offer a fun and informative way to keep up your hobby of studying etymology.\nFor blogs, try the Oxford Etymologist, The Etyman Language Blog, or Omniglot Blog.\nFor podcasts, try The Allusionist, Lexicon Valley, or The History of English. <img> ", "Take a course for credit. Many colleges and universities offer traditional and online courses related to etymology. There will not be a broad array of related courses available, but there is likely to be one or two at most higher education institutions. The best place to look for classes related to etymology are in the Classics, English, and Linguistics departments.\nKeep in mind that you will have to be enrolled at a college or university in order to take a course through them. Most courses taken for credit will require you to be accepted as a student through a formal application process and to pay a tuition fee. <img> Apply for a linguistics degree program. No colleges or universities currently offer degrees specifically in etymology. However, many higher ed institutions do have Linguistics Departments that offer bachelor’s, master’s, and/or doctoral degrees. Getting a degree in Linguistics is the best preparation you can have for becoming a professional word historian.\nThe QS World University Rankings publishes an annual list of the top international programs in Linguistics according to their strengths in research and reputation along with their student and faculty ratio and diversity. <img> Get a related job or internship. Study etymology in a hands-on way. There isn’t too much call for professional etymologists these days. However, if you’d like to pursue a career in word history, the best way to go about it is to seek an editorial position with a quality dictionary, like the Oxford English Dictionary.\nDictionaries require constant updates to word definitions and etymologies, which means they always need new editorial staff. Search for job openings at dictionaries that interest you. They could be anything from the Oxford English Dictionary to Dictionary.com. <img> " ]

When you reach your last step down the runway, step forward with one foot and then extend the opposite foot to the side. Place your hand on your hip and push your hips forward.\nLean on your back foot when posing. This makes your body look more balanced.\nWatch videos of popular runway models to find alternate pose options. <img> Turn and walk back to the starting point. After posing, turn by pivoting on the balls of your feet. Keep your face towards the end of the runway as you turn until you’ve turned around completely. Step forward again with your lead foot and return to your starting position. Depending on the desires of the show director, you may need to pose again. Turn by pivoting on one of your feet and strike a pose. Pivot again and leave the stage.\nWhen you reach the end of the runway you may have the opportunity to do more than one pose. If so, keep pivoting and shifting your weight back and forth to maintain your rhythm.\nIf you have a long train, walk in a semicircle around the end of the runway instead of pivoting to show off the garment. <img> Practice walking in heels. Put full length mirror at the end of a hallway and walk back and forth. As you walk, ask yourself if you look graceful and confident. Experiment with alternate poses and walking rhythms. Walk until you can confidently walk forward without looking down or tripping.\nWatch videos of popular runway models walking. Take note of how they position their bodies and show a walking rhythm.\nAsk a friend to watch you walk and give you feedback. <img> ", "Practice good grooming habits. Wash your body and hair thoroughly before the competition. Make sure any unwanted hair is plucked, shaved, or waxed away.Pluck or wax your eyebrows to highlight the arch. If your skin looks ashy or dry, exfoliate yourself with a loofa or exfoliating scrub while you shower. Lastly, get a trim if your hair has visibly damaged ends.\nMost models have long hair. However, there are many successful models with pixie cuts. Wear what makes you confident!\nMoisturize your skin with an unscented moisturizer to help you glow. <img> Wear minimal makeup. Unless your competition says otherwise, try to only wear the essentials. You want to show off your natural beauty. Apply some concealer and powder to even out your skin tone and highlight the apples of your cheeks with a natural-looking blush. If your eyebrows are too light, darken them a little bit with eyebrow makeup and shape them with wax or hairspray. Last, apply some mascara. If you have naturally dark hair, use black mascara. Otherwise, use brown mascara.\nDon’t wear colorful nail polish. Instead, clean your nails and apply a coat of clear nail polish.\nPull your hair back from your face in a tight ponytail to show off your features. <img> Find out what to wear. Each competition has different requirements. If you are allowed to choose your own outfit, pick something that is flattering for your body type and makes you feel confident. However, many competitions have strict clothing requirements. For example, the Charleston Fashion Week competition requires that models wear black tank tops with black leggings and three inch heels.\nIf you’re having trouble choosing something to wear, see if you can find any pictures or videos of past winners to get ideas.\nWhen in doubt, don’t wear jewelry. <img> ", "Improve your posture. Walking with a slouch won’t flatter your figure at all. Straighten your back and square your shoulders, pushing out your chest slightly. Keep your chin up and look forward. Bend your knees slightly as you walk.\nUse good posture even when you aren’t walking on the catwalk. Practice makes perfect!\nIf you have trouble maintaining good posture, visit a chiropractor. <img> Work on your walk. Take a step, keeping your hips stationary and your feet pointed forward. Instead of swaying your hips while you walk, move your shoulders. Keep your back and hips straight and swing your arms slightly. IF there’s music playing, try to walk in time to the music.\nWatch videos of successful male models on the catwalk for tips and inspiration.\nLook forward as you walk, not down. <img> Pose at the end of the catwalk. Make sure you stop for three to five seconds. There are a lot of great poses to choose from. However, the most common pose for men is the “c” pose. Place your left hand on your hip and arch your back away from your hand. Point your right toe out towards the audience and turn your face to the right.\nWatch videos of popular male models on the runway to find new positions.\nBalance your weight on your back foot when you pose. <img> Turn and walk back to the entry point. Pivot on the balls of your feet and walk back to the beginning of the runway. Keep your face forward as you turn. When you reach the end of the runway, you may have the opportunity to pose again. Pose for three to five seconds then exit the runway.\nYour face should be the last part of you to turn away from the audience. <img> ", "Apply makeup. Most male models wear natural looking makeup that highlights their skin and eyebrows. Choose a foundation that matches your skin tone and apply a thin layer on your face with a foundation brush. Next, brush a thin layer of translucent powder over your face to hold the foundation in place. Lastly, groom your eyebrows. Pluck any stray hairs and darken your eyebrows with brown eyeshadow if they’re too light.\nApply a moisturizer thirty minutes before you put on makeup. This will make your skin look full and healthy.\nMake sure to blend the foundation really well around your nose and mouth. These areas are easy to overlook. <img> Groom your hair. First, get a haircut. Before the competition, get a haircut at a salon or a barbershop. These days, most male models have short haircuts that are faded on the sides, although there are always exceptions! Additionally, make sure you wax or shave any chest, shoulder, or back hair before the competition.\nPractice doing your hair in the weeks leading up to the competition. If you do, you won’t be nervous about doing it when it matters.\nYou may need to buy products such as hair wax or combs to style your hair properly. <img> Wear the proper attire. Each competition will require different clothing. Some competitions let you choose your own outfit. If so, try to wear something that’s flattering to your figure. However, most competitions will ask you to wear flat shoes, black leggings, and a black tank top.\nIf you’re not sure what kind of clothing flatters your body type, visit a nice men’s department store and talk to an associate to get fashion advice.\nIf you don’t wear the proper attire you will most likely be disqualified. <img> ", "Do an internet search for local competitions. Many cities host local versions of famous modeling competitions. For example, Austin, TX hosts an “Top Austin Model” competition every year. Most of these competitions don’t require any previous experience modeling and can lead to modeling contracts with large agencies.\nMake sure you fulfill the physical requirements for the competition. Many competitions have a height and clothing size requirement.\nResearch the application process in advance to make sure you have everything you need. Some competitions have applications and fees. <img> Be prepared for scammers. Research the company hosting the competition. There are many companies that try to take advantage of aspiring models by tricking them into bad contracts. Look online for reviews of the company or of the competition to find out if it’s a legitimate competition.\nIt should be easy to find photos of past winners and reviews of the agencies hosting the competition. If you can’t find these things, the competition might be a scam.\nSimilarly, many “modeling schools” are scams as well. Be prepared to do heavy research before signing up. <img> Get headshots done. A “headshot” is a professional photo that highlights your natural beauty. Not all competitions require a head shot with your application. In fact, some competitions include free headshots as a part of the package. However, if you need to get headshots done, go to a professional photography studio. A professional photographer will know how to take photos that fulfill headshot requirements and flatter your figure.\nBe prepared to pay between $100-$700 for professional headshots. This is an investment in your future!\nWear minimal makeup when getting headshots done.\nTry to transmit confidence through your pictures.\nWhile looking through photos, agencies search for exuberance, whether it's your smile or the way your face lights up.\nKeep in mind that anyone can win a modeling competition—it's all about having the right photos. Your age, height, and overall look don't matter. <img> " ]

[ "Buy seasonal items to resell. Seasonal goods such as Halloween masks or Christmas wreaths can be purchased at a very low cost from the dollar store, especially if you purchase them shortly after the holiday has passed. Buy seasonal items the day after a holiday, store them in your basement and then resell them at the beginning of the holiday season next year. <img> Buy electronics to resell. You can find electronics for very cheap prices at the dollar store, including items like headphones, DVDs, and home entertainment products. If you see a good deal on one of these electronic items, buy it and resell it online or at a flea market.\nBuy headphones to resell. Headphones in the under $50 category can be found at dollar stores. Read headphone reviews, learn about current models, and see if you can find any good deals on headphones in the under $50 price category. If you find any, you should be able to make a good profit by reselling them online.\nFind DVDs to resell. People love old movies and you can find many old DVDs at dollar stores for a bargain. Find titles that have a cult following or are nostalgic favorites for particular generations, and then resell them online. <img> Buy books to resell. Dollar stores have great deals on books. If you collect all of the books in a series or work to collect all of the books from a particular author, you can then resell the collections online. Fans of the series or author will pay significantly more for a complete collection. <img> Find discontinued products. Cosmetics, shampoos, and other personal products that have been discontinued can still be found at dollar stores. If there is a niche market for a discontinued cosmetic or shampoo with a nice scent, you can purchase the discontinued products and resell them to this niche market online\nTest out the market for discontinued items before buying too many of them. Try reselling a couple of the items online to gauge demand. Check to see how many people view your item on an auction site and how fast it sells. If it sells quickly, buy some more from the dollar store and repeat. <img> Purchase party supplies. Party supplies are pretty cheap but if you collect all of the relevant supplies for a particular party theme, you can resell the set. You may have to visit multiple dollar stores in order to find the items for the party theme.\nFor example, if you collect all of the party supplies for a zombie birthday party, you can then resell it as a complete set online or at a flea market. <img> ", "Inquire into the price range for your product category. Start by searching on auction sites, such as eBay, to see what the product or similar products in your category are selling for. For example, try to find the price range for your particular brand of electronic headphones as well as the larger price range for headphones in general. If you can find the price for your particular brand of headphones, take note of both the highest and the lowest price listed for the item. With this knowledge of the price range, you can start thinking about how much you will ask for your item.\nIf your item is in better condition or has something different from the others on the list, you may be able to price it in the higher price range.\nIf the item is pretty much the same as the other items listed, you may want to set it at an average price. <img> See how much your item usually sells for. Looking through the online listings for your item on the auction site, such as eBay, you should see how much people have actually paid for the item. Taking this price into consideration, think about how much you could sell your particular item for.\nIf you are using eBay, scroll down to the ‘show only’ options on the left side of the page, towards the bottom of the listings page. Click on ‘sold listings’ and then review the items in your category (e.g., headphones) that have sold. Reviewing the prices of sold items, determine what you think you could sell your dollar store item for online.\nIf you cannot find your item on eBay or other auction sites, try searching for similar items. For example, if you found a particular brand of faux wood headphones at your local dollar store but cannot find the same brand on eBay, see if there is a similar pair of faux wood headphones. <img> Set a price for your dollar store items. Taking into consideration the current price range for your product category (e.g., headphones) and the prices that your particular item has sold for, set a price for your item.\nPrice your items competitively. Taking into consideration both how much you paid for the item at the dollar store and the current price range for the item on eBay, try to set a competitive price that will get the item sold quickly and efficiently.\nIf you are using eBay, you can set a reserve price which is the lowest that you would be willing to sell your item for online.\nOn eBay, you can use a fixed price which means that there will not be any bidding on your item. It will be sold, or not, at the fixed price you set. <img> ", "Choose an auction site. You can resell dollar store items on online auction sites such as eBay, eBid, Bonanza, Webstore.com, or OnlineAuction.com. If you choose this approach, you will need to choose the best auction site for your selling goals. You should look at which sites have the lowest selling fees, listing options, and selling features.\nAuction sites sometimes have a seller verification fee but this feature can also be found for free on some sites. In addition, fees may be charged for the final value of the item sold, as well as, for listing the items and relisting them if they do not sell.\neBay allows you to list your first 50 items free but then charges a fee. Sites like eBid and Bonanza allow you to list your items for free. <img> Photograph your dollar store items. A big part of e-commerce, including selling dollar store items, is the quality of the images you use to sell items. You will want to use the best camera you own and shoot the product against a white backdrop. If you have a whiteboard, you should use it. However, you can also shoot the product against a white wall or a white desk. Pay attention to the light in the room and try to avoid making shadows over the product you are selling.\nTake five photographs of each item. Be sure to take photographs of unique features, labels, tags, and details. If there is an oddity or discoloration, you should also take a photo of it so that consumers know what they are getting. Your consumers will appreciate your thoroughness and objectivity. <img> Create a listing for your dollar store items. You will need to decide upon a title, price, description, illustration (e.g., photo), as well as payment and shipping information. Try to use a simple title that adequately lets people know what you are selling. The price should be competitive with similar items listed on the auction site you are using. The description and illustration should allow consumers to get a good sense of what you are selling online. Use the following principles:\nMeasure your items and offer exact measurements for online buyers.\nShow clarity and objectivity. If an item is damaged, you need to tell your consumers exactly how it is damaged. If the packaging is torn, you need tell the consumer. <img> List your items online. With your price, photograph, and full listing information, you can now list your dollar store items on the auction site of your choice. To be successful in this venture, you will need to be well organized, take good photographs, and offer good descriptions.\nOrganize small items into larger lots. For example, if you have a bunch of balloons and some zombie masks from the dollar store, put them together with some other items to make a zombie party theme kit. Individually, the dollar store items may not sell. When grouped together as a set, they should attract good bids.\nYou can try selling your items on eBay. <img> Sell and ship your items. If one of your dollar store items sells, you should try to ship it to the customer as soon as possible. This will help develop trust between you and your customers, which will allow you to sell more dollar store items online. Use the shipping method that you listed on the auction site and ship the item out as soon as possible.\nPack the items well so that there is less chance of damage during shipping. <img> Sell your dollar store items at a flea market or garage sale. If you have some items that you were unable to sell online, you can always set up a booth at a garage sale.

[ "Wring your clothes out to get the majority of the water out. Take your clothes out of the washer and make sure they aren’t dripping wet anymore. If you washed your clothes by hand, gently squeeze them out over the sink until they aren’t dripping wet.\nMost washers have a spin cycle that removes a lot of the water.\nYou can hang clothes outside to dry them.\nBefore that, you should let them go through a complete spin cycle so the excess water can spin out. <img> Set up a clothes horse on the balcony. Purchase a metal or plastic clothes horse that fits on your balcony and unfold it so that it stands up. Make sure it’s large enough to fit all your clothes from a single load of laundry.\nYou can find clothes horses at most home goods stores.\nYou can also purchase mounted clothes racks that attach to the railing of your balcony. <img> Lay your clothes over the rack in a single layer. Unfold all of your clothes so that they lay flat, then lay them over the bars of your clothes horse. Try to keep your clothes in a single layer so they dry faster.\nIf you are hanging small items like socks, use a clothespin to keep them in place.\nIf your clothes don’t all fit in a single layer, you may need to buy another clothes horse. <img> Put heavy clothes, like sweaters, flat on a mesh rack. Instead of draping your heavy clothing items over a clothes rack, lay them flat on a mesh clothing rack. This will help you avoid any creases or stretching as your clothes dry out.\nSweaters, jackets, and heavy knits are all too heavy to hang on a clothes rack.\nYou should lay down jackets flat to dry. <img> Rotate your clothes every few hours so they dry quicker. If your clothes sit in one position the entire time, they’ll probably take a long time to dry. Check on your clothes every 2 to 4 hours and rotate them to new spots and angles on your clothes rack so that every side is exposed to the fresh air.\nThis is especially helpful for thicker clothes that dry slowly.\nIf you live in a humid area, your clothes may take even longer to dry. <img> Take your clothes in as soon as they are dry so they don’t fade. Depending on how warm it is out and how thick your clothes are, they could take anywhere from 2 to 4 hours to dry fully. Once they feel dry, fold them up and take them inside to get them out of the sun.Tip: If you are worried about your clothes fading, try to keep your clothes horse out of the direct sunlight. <img> ", "Check with your property owner to see if you can hang clothes outside. Some apartment and condo buildings have laws preventing their residents from hanging laundry on the balcony. Read the by-laws of your complex to make sure you won’t get fined or punished for having visible laundry on the balcony.\nSome states have laws preventing property owners from banning laundry on balconies. Be sure to check with your home’s contract as well as the laws in your state and county.\nMost hotels don’t allow their guests to hang clothes on the balcony. <img> Move the clothes rack away from the railing so it isn’t visible. Instead of pushing your clothes rack up against the railing, try keeping it near the door of your balcony so it’s less noticeable. This will also help you when you’re taking your clothes in and out so you don’t have to carry them so far.Tip: If your balcony isn’t big enough to hold your clothes rack, consider putting it inside under a window or near a fan. <img> Put potted plants in front of the clothes rack to hide it. Find a few tall plants and place them near your balcony’s edge so that they hide your clothes rack. Adding potted plants will also spruce up your balcony and make it feel more like the great outdoors.\nCheck with a plant nursery near you to find some affordable potted plants for your home. <img> Check to see if your clothes rack is visible from the street. If your home faces the street or a communal area, walk down there and look up at your balcony. If you can see your clothes rack, try moving it to a different position and then checking again.\nClothes racks can be an eyesore, which is why most property owners don’t allow them on the balcony. <img> Avoid hanging your clothes on the balcony railing. Clothing hanging on the railing of your balcony can blow off in the wind, fall off onto the street, or make the railing moldy from constant moisture. Hold off on drying your clothes on your balcony until you have a clothes rack you can use.\nHanging clothes on the balcony is also an eyesore, which is why many property owners don’t allow it. <img> " ]

[ "Choose thick tubular webbing for the slackline and slings. Slacklines are typically made from nylon cords 1 to 2 in (2.5 to 5.1 cm) wide. You will need a long piece for the slackline and 3 smaller “slings” to anchor the line. For the main line, 50 ft (15 m) is a good length for beginners. Get shorter lines 10 to 15 ft (3.0 to 4.6 m) long.\nThe cords, along with other components, are available online and at outdoor activity supply stores.\nGet the webbing and other supplies you need in one go by purchasing a slackline kit. Online stores and outdoor activity suppliers sell them.\nYou can make a slackline out of other material, including car tow lines or bungee cords. <img> Purchase line lockers and carabiners to connect the webbing. Pick up 2 line lockers and 5 carabiners to set up your line. The line lockers are metal rings that prevent the slackline from coming undone. Make sure the carabiners are oval-shaped and climbing-strength to ensure they support your weight on the line.\nYou can also use metal rings from the hardware store or rappel rings from an outdoor activity supply store. <img> Select strong anchor points to tie the slackline to. Find 2 trees, posts, concrete walls, or other solid objects. Measure the distance between them to make sure your slackline is long enough. Shorter spans are easier to learn on and allow you to keep the line closer to the ground.\nFor a 50 ft (15 m) line, look for anchor points about 20 to 30 ft (6.1 to 9.1 m) apart. The distance between the anchors has to be about 20 ft (6.1 m) shorter than your slackline so you can tie the line around them.\nMake sure the anchors are capable of sustaining 500 to 1,000 lb (230 to 450 kg) of force. If the anchors feels loose in the ground, don’t use them. Fragile surfaces like wood walls aren’t safe anchor points.\nIf you don’t have anchor points available, you will need to make some. Build your own A-frames or purchase them in a kit. <img> ", "Cut wood boards to create the A-frame components. You will need approximately 4 2 in × 4 in (5.1 cm × 10.2 cm) planks about 8 ft (2.4 m) long. This will be enough to create 2 A-frame. Use a miter saw set at a 22.5 degree angle. Wear safety goggles, ear muffs, and a dust mask if you cut the boards yourself. You can also rent a saw at a home improvement store or have store employees cut the following boards:\n2 planks 18 in (46 cm) long.\n2 planks 20 ⁄4 in (53 cm) long.\n4 planks 36 in (91 cm) long.\n2 planks 37 ⁄8 in (96 cm) long. <img> Arrange the boards in an A-shape on a workbench. Set the boards out on a flat surface so you can fasten them together. Work on 1 A-frame at a time. To create the frame, place the 2 medium boards on the sides. Fit the remaining boards between these medium boards. Place 1 of the long boards at the bottom, then fit the shorter boards at the top and in the middle.\nEach A-frame uses 5 boards. When you’re done, the boards will create the shape of an A. Make sure all of the boards fit snugly together. <img> Clamp the boards and drill pilot holes through them. Countersinking pilot holes prevents the boards from cracking and weakening. Use a drill with a ⁄4 in (1.9 cm) countersink bit to drill a pair of holes in each of the middle boards. Measure about 2 in (5.1 cm) from the ends of each board, then drill the holes diagonally into the side boards.\nWork from the bottom edges of lower support boards in the middle of the A-frame. For the small board at the top, drill through the side boards to reach it.\nUse a pair of wood clamps to hold the boards in place as you work. <img> Bolt the boards together with 2 ⁄2 in (6.4 cm) decking screws. Place a screw in each of the pilot holes. The screws will pass through the support planks and into the frame planks on the side. Make sure the boards fit together well and feel sturdy when you try to move them. That way, they won’t fall apart when you’re walking on your slackline. <img> Cut plywood to fit over the A-frame. The plywood creates a spot for you to attach the slackline and anchor lines. You will need a 8 in (20 cm) sheet of plywood ⁄2 in (1.3 cm) thick for each A-frame you wish to make. Set the A-frame on top of the plywood, then trace its outline with a pencil. Cut the outline using a reciprocating saw.\nYou can also use a jigsaw or circular saw to cut the plywood.\nTo avoid cutting the plywood too short, leave it a little longer than the outline. You can always cut it down further or sand it, but you can’t fix it once it’s too small for the A-frame. <img> Fasten the plywood to the A-frame with 2 in (5.1 cm) decking screws. Place the plywood over the A-frame. Place a screw about every 12 in (30 cm) along each of the boards in the frame. Screw through the plywood and into the frame boards to secure everything together.\nThe frame boards are a little difficult to find underneath the plywood. Feel for the solid boards through the plywood. If you’re unsure, lift up the plywood to locate them. Outline them with a pencil to help you place the screws. <img> Drill a pair of holes through the plywood to create anchor points. Use a 1 ⁄2 in (3.8 cm) drill bit to make the holes. Position them underneath the top board on the A-frame. Make the holes about 2 in (5.1 cm) apart. Use a reciprocating saw or another tool to remove the wood between the holes.\nBasically, you create a slot in the A-frame to thread the slackline webbing through. <img> Tie the A-frames to anchor points using nylon webbing. Find an anchor point for each A-frame. One way to do this is by planting metal stakes or struts firmly in the ground. Use extra line lockers and carabiners to run the webbing from the stakes to the slot in the A-frame. Make sure the stakes are well-planted so the frames can’t move when you touch them.\nAnother way to plant the A-frames is by burying concrete cinder blocks in your yard. Tie a chain around each cinder blocks, then run the chains to the A-frames.\nTo preserve the webbing for longer, sand your A-frames smooth before using them. <img> ", "Secure a sling to the first anchor point at waist height. Position the loop of webbing about 2 to 3 ft (0.61 to 0.91 m) off the ground for a 15 to 20 ft (4.6 to 6.1 m) slackline. Loop the webbing tightly around the tree, then connect the ends with a carabiner.\nBefore using trees for anchors, cover the bark with padding like a towel or carpeting.\nIf you’re creating a longer slackline, you may need to raise the slings up further to keep the line off the ground. If the line touches the ground when you climb onto it, take it apart and raise the webbing. <img> Hook the slackline to the sling with a carabiner Fold the first 12 in (30 cm) of the line over on itself to create a small loop. Push the loop through a line locker to keep the slackline secure later. Then, pull about 5 in (13 cm) of the line back around and through the line locker again to create a double loop. Clip a single carabiner to it.\nPull on the line to make sure the sling feels secure in the loop. If it feels loose, take it out of the line locker and carabiner, then knot it again. <img> Place a line locker and carabiner about 80% of the way from the second anchor. Lay the slackline out on the ground between the anchor points. Walk towards the loose end of the line and the second anchor point. Estimate when 80% of the line is behind you, then pull the line through a line locker. Tie the end of the line to a carabiner using a double loop like you did earlier.\nYou can usually get a good estimate of where to place the line locker by looking at the line as you walk. If you need to, measure it out with a ruler or tape measure.\nFor example, if you’re using a 20 ft (6.1 m) line, place the line locker 15 to 16 ft (4.6 to 4.9 m) along the slackline. <img> Wrap 2 slings with carabiners around the far anchor point. Place the slings on the anchor point closest to the free end of the slackline. Keep the slings close together. Connect the ends of each sling with a single carabiner. Lay the carabiners on top of one another, positioning them so the “gate” parts that open face in opposite directions.\nRemember to protect trees by placing padding underneath the slings.\nTest the slings when you’re done to make sure they are knotted tightly in place. <img> Loop the slackline around the carabiners to anchor it in place. Bring the slackline underneath and through the lower carabiner on your anchor point. Then, pull the line back towards you and through the carabiner with the line locker. Pass the line under and through the upper carabiner on the anchor point. Finally, pull the line underneath and back through the carabiner with the line locker.\nThis is called a “primitive” 4-carabiner pulley system. It can be a little tricky to get at first, but it’s a safe, fun way to create a slackline without any extra tools or knots.\nIf you have a ratchet system, attach the ratchet to an anchor point, then feed the slackline webbing through it. <img> ", "Pull the line toward the far anchor to tighten it. Grab onto the tail end of the slackline and pull it towards the first anchor with the single carabiner. Get the line moderately taught, enough to keep it from sagging. Tighter lines are better for bouncing and doing tricks. Adjust the line to get the amount of tension you desire.\nIf you’re using a ratchet, pull the ratchet handle down to tighten the line. Don’t tighten it too much. Keep at least a little slack in the line to prevent it from snapping.\nYou may need help pulling a line over 30 ft (9.1 m). Have a friend help you pull the line.\nAnother way to pull a long line is by installing a pulley system. Hook the pulley to the anchor point. Run a cord from the locking anchor in the line to the pulley. Then, tug the webbing through the pulley to tighten it. <img> Test the line by sitting or bouncing on it. Climb onto the line. Walk across it or bounce on it a little bit to stretch out the anchors and knots. Make sure the line feels secure but doesn’t touch the ground when you walk the middle of it.\nIf the line needs adjustment, tug on the end of the slackline to tighten or loosen it. If you need to raise the line, loosen it first before untying the webbing around the anchors. <img> Release the line by pulling it in the opposite direction. Pull the tail end of the line away from the anchor point to undo it. This is very safe and easy to do in a primitive pulley system. Once you have lowered the line, removing all tension from it, unhook the carabiners to take down all of the webbing.\nIf you’re using a ratchet, unlock the ratchet to release the tension. Pull the slackline out of the ratchet to take it down. <img> " ]

[ "Inflate the balloon and leave a 3 in (7.6 cm) tail. Keep blowing until the air has inflated the balloon to about 3 in (7.6 cm) from the end, then stop blowing and tie off the balloon. The small “tail” that you leave will become the dog’s actual tail in the end.\nAlways use balloons specifically made for balloon animals. Qualatex and Betallatex balloons are great for making balloon animals.\nAlways use a balloon pump to inflate your balloons. <img> Make 3 basic twists to create 4 segments. Start at the base of the balloon (at the balloon’s knot) and twist the balloon 2 times to create the dog’s snout. Make 2 more twists that are slightly shorter than the first segment to form the dog’s ears. Leave the last segment alone; this will become the dog’s body.\nHold all of the segments in 1 hand to prevent them from becoming untwisted, since they have not yet been locked.\nYou can also make an extra-long snout and call your balloon animal an anteater. <img> Twist the ear segments together. Use your free hand to grasp the second and third segments, the ear segments, and twist them together 3 times. This lock twist will keep them from coming untwisted. Do you see the dog's head yet? <img> Make 3 more basic twists for the neck and 2 legs. Make the first twist a few inches below the head to form a neck segment. Make 2 more twists below the neck to create 2 segments that are equal in length; these will be the front legs. Hold all the new segments in the same hand to prevent them from coming untwisted.\nWould you rather have a giraffe than a dog? Make the neck segment extra long; the rest of the body is exactly the same.\nYou can make the leg segments long or short, but they should be about the same length (otherwise, your dog might not be able to stand up!). <img> Twist the leg segments together. Fold the balloon at the twist between the 2 leg segments. Grasp the leg segments with your free hand and twist them together 3 times at the base of the neck. The legs and neck are now locked in place, so you can let go if you need to. <img> Make 3 more basic twists along the remaining length of the balloon. The first segment is the dog's body, the second 2 segments will become the back legs of the dog, and the final segment is the tail. Hold them all in one hand to prevent them from becoming untwisted. <img> Twist the back legs together. Fold the balloon at the twist between the two back leg segments. Grasp the segments and twist them 3 times at the base of the body segment. Take a look at your finished sculpture: it has a knotted nose, short ears, front legs and back legs and a tail that sticks straight up. Your work is complete!\nWant to make your balloon dog even cuter? Use a permanent marker to give them 2 eyes and a mouth. <img> ", "Inflate a balloon and leave a 4 in (10 cm) tail. You can pick any color for your swan, but white or black balloons both make striking swan sculptures. Tie your balloon off to keep it inflated. <img> Bend the balloon into a paper clip spiral shape. Roll the ballon in on itself to put the knotted end at the center of the “paper clip” shape. Keep the tail end jutting out from the paper clip. Then, pinch the middle to hold the balloon together. <img> Twist the middle of the balloon together. Grasp the folded balloon in the middle so that you're holding 3 parts: the top of the paperclip, the bottom of the paperclip and the knot in the center. Twist the 3 parts together, making sure you catch the knot in the twist. Hold the twist to make sure it doesn't come undone. You now have 2 loops with a long neck jutting out from the center twist. <img> Tuck 1 loop into the other. Use your free hand to close one of the loops and push it up through the other one. This creates the body of the swan, with the tucked-in loop resembling folded wings and the outer loop resembling the swan's underside. Tucking in the loop also keeps the structure from coming undone. <img> Pinch the long portion to create the head. Grasp the neck a few inches from the tail and use your hand to move some of the air into the uninflated tail part. This will cause the top of the neck to curve into the shape of the head. The remaining uninflated tail forms the swan's beak.\nUse a marker to give your swan eyes if you’d like to. <img> ", "Inflate the balloon and leave a 6 in (15 cm) tail at the end. Leaving a shorter tail might result in the balloon popping halfway through the sculpting process, so make sure you have plenty of uninflated balloon at the end. Tie off the balloon with a knot. <img> Make a basic twist 1 to 2 in (2.5 to 5.1 cm) away from the knot. This will create a small segment that will be the monkey's face. Hold both segments in one hand to prevent them from untwisting. <img> Make a short fold twist. Start by making a second basic twist close to the first one so that you have a small segment in between the twists. Fold the segment so that the two twists line up. Use your free hand to grasp the folded segment and twist it 3 times to lock it in place. You've just made the monkey's first ear! <img> Do another basic twist. A couple of inches from the first ear, make another basic twist to create a short segment. Hold it in 1 hand so that it doesn't untwist. This new short segment will be the monkey's forehead. <img> Make another short fold twist. Start by making a second basic twist close to the first one so that you have a new small segment between the twists. Fold this segment so that the 2 twists line up. Use your free hand to grasp the folded segment and twist it 3 times to lock it in place. This is the monkey's second ear.\nYou can already see the monkey’s head starting to form during this step! <img> Twist the ears together. Carefully grasp the two ears by the twists at their bases. The forehead segment will be sticking out between them. Twist the ears together three times to lock them in place. The monkey's head is now complete: it has a nose, a forehead, and two ears. <img> Make 3 more basic twists for the arms and neck. Make the first twist a few inches below the head to form the neck segment. Make two more twists lower down to form two segments that are equal in length. These will become the monkey's arms.\nHold all of the segments in one hand to prevent them from untwisting. <img> Twist the arms together. Fold the balloon at the twist between the two arm segments. Grasp the segments and twist them three times at the base of the neck segment to lock the arms and neck in place. The balloon should now resemble a monkey with a head, neck and arms. <img> Make 3 more basic twists to create the body and legs. Make the first twist a few inches below the arms to form the body segment. Make 2 more twists lower down to form 2 segments that are equal in length. These will become the monkey's legs. Hold all of the segments in one hand to prevent them from untwisting.\nLeave plenty of room at the end of the balloon for the tail, which should be the longest segment of all. <img> Twist the legs together. Fold the balloon at the twist between the two leg segments. Grasp the segments and twist them together 3 times at the base of the body. The body and legs are now locked in place, and the tail is hanging down from the body.\nYour monkey is now complete! Make your monkey even more adorable by drawing a face on with a permanent marker. <img> Inflate a coconut tree trunk for your monkey to hang onto. Choose a balloon in a contrasting color and inflate it completely, then tie it off (no need to leave a tail at the end). Slide it between the monkey's arms and legs so that the monkey appears to be climbing it. Enjoy your monkey balloon animal! <img> " ]

[ "Choose a niche to specialize in. Since your clothing line will be a reflection of your perspective, spend time thinking about what you want your clothing line to achieve and what needs you want the brand to fill. Avoid vague or generic concepts like “women's clothing” and try to zero in on specific garments. \nFor example, if you're a horseback rider and you can't find riding pants that are both comfortable and stylish, you can use your unique perspective to design pants that address those needs.\nIf you're a yoga instructor, use your experience and perspective to create apparel that will appeal to other yoga enthusiasts. <img> Identify your target customers so you can cater to them. Check out fashion blogs, celebrity trends, and industry studies in your niche market to learn more about your target audience and what they want. You can then base your clothing line around unique solutions that fill their needs.\nFor example, maybe you want to design apparel for women who play roller derby. You can check out roller-girl fashion blogs and look into what's being worn by famous women and tastemakers in the industry.\nLook into the practical side of things, as well. If there's a demand for stylish knee pads, research sturdy designs and breathable materials. <img> Maintain consistency in your designs and concepts. Create a recognizable personality and look for your brand and keep these elements consistent. This includes color palettes, fonts, your logo, and even little details like stitching and zipper styles. It's important to maintain consistency all the way down to photography and the tone of voice you use in marketing content.\nFor example, if your target customers are teenage girls who are into pastel goth fashions, use a color palette that resonates with them, such as pink, purple, and aqua. Create standout characteristics, like pink stitching, for your entire line.\nThe tone of your marketing content should also feel youthful and alternative to match the subculture of your customers. <img> Create an eye-catching logo that reflects your brand and vision. Usually, the most effective logo is a simple one! You can use graphics and typography to speak to your target market and represent your style. Start by sketching your ideas on paper, then use Photoshop or an online logo design tool to create a high-res digital version.\nFor example, if your clothing line is bold streetwear or grunge throwback apparel, you wouldn't want to use a rounded font. Choose a font with hard edges and sharp lines, and use all capital letters.\nIf you don't feel comfortable designing your own logo, consider collaborating with an artistic friend or hiring a graphic designer. <img> Find ways to stand out from your competitors. Research who your competitors are and look for needs that they aren't fulfilling for your target market. Once you identify how your competitors are lacking, you can create products that address those needs, which can help you gain visibility over them in the marketplace. Make sure your brand brings something new to the table that no one else offers!\nFor example, maybe you're designing stylish sports bras for plus-sized women and your competitors are only addressing fit, not aesthetics. Your brand can offer the same (or better) fit in a wide variety of trendy colors and patterns. <img> ", "Decide exactly what kind of apparel your line will include. You've narrowed down niche and target market, so you probably already have a pretty good idea about what products you plan to offer. At this point, set specific parameters for your initial designs. You can always expand your line of products later when you have more capital and experience, but try to focus your vision in the beginning stages.\nFor example, narrow down a roller derby apparel line to include shorts, tank tops, and knee socks. Once your brand takes off, consider expanding to include accessories like knee pads and helmets. <img> Create a mood board to brainstorm and solidify your concepts. Collect images, photos, designs, colors, fonts, and any other elements that reflect your brand's vision. You can assemble these items in a scrapbook, on a corkboard, with online tools like Pinterest, or with fashion design mobile apps.\nUse your mood board as a source of inspiration as you're designing your pieces and reference it frequently to help you maintain consistency.\nKeep collecting material and expanding your mood board as your designs and products expand. <img> Choose a color palette to create consistency. Go with colors that make sense with your aesthetic and reflect your customers' style demands. For example, for a line of roller derby apparel, you might choose bright colors like hot pink and aqua and set them against a high contrast white or black backdrop. The colors are energetic, fun, and reflect your customers' style and interests.\nOr, if you wanted a grittier feel, you could go with dark red, black, and gray to appeal to strong, competitive personalities.\nYou can also work an accent color into the main theme. For example, you could add an accent color like neon yellow for small details like buttons and stitching. <img> Sketch out your ideas for each garment on paper. Focus on getting the designs, color, and overall aesthetic down on paper first. Don't worry too much about technical details at this point. Then, continue developing your concept sketches to include construction characteristics like zippers, sleeves, body, hems, and linings. <img> Convert your sketches to digital format. As your sketches develop, you'll eventually need to transfer them from paper to digital format by using a program like Adobe Illustrator. Digital files will be easier to work from once you start making technical patterns, since patterns need to be clear and geometrically precise. <img> Develop technical clothing patterns from your digital sketches. Technical patterns are necessary for production and include all of the specifics for a garment, right down to the measurements. If you aren't sure how to create a technical clothing pattern, you can always find a basic commercial pattern and adapt it until you get the hang of the process.\nYou can also look into video tutorials, software, and design apps for help with technical pattern-making. <img> ", "Use high-quality materials for your clothing. As a small start-up, you may not have a huge budget for materials, but try to use the best quality that you can afford. It's important to set a quality standard for your brand, since poor quality is not something that new customers forget. That doesn't mean you can't upgrade to even better materials later, once you start turning a profit, but just focus on what you can afford for now.\nKeep in mind that it's better to create a very limited line of clothes made with quality materials rather than a vast line made with poor materials. <img> Put together Tech Packs for samples. In order to produce samples, you need blueprints. Tech Packs include technical patterns outlining every last detail—measurements, trims, fabrics, grading, coloring, buttons, etc. You should also include a Cutter's Must list, which is an itemized list of the pattern pieces required to complete each garment.\nYou can hire a professional to help you create a Tech Pack, which usually costs between $70 and $400. <img> Manufacture a small set of samples for testing. You can produce samples yourself or outsource to a samples manufacturer. Base your decision on your current capabilities, skill level, and budget. For example, if you have extra money in the budget and very little experience with sewing, you may want to outsource. <img> Seek out a factory that you can trust to manufacture the final pieces. If possible, find a manufacturer in your area so you can visit the factory and talk with them on-site. Ask for a list of references or physical samples to evaluate some of their work.\nMake sure the factory is fine with creating small batches, since you'll probably want to start out with a small amount of inventory and work up from there.\nIt's not uncommon for young brands to try a few different manufacturers until they find the perfect fit. <img> " ]

[ "Look for small red dots, flea dirt, and flea eggs on your dog’s skin. One of the most conspicuous signs of fleas are what they leave on your dog. Take a close look at your dog’s skin to see if they have any small, red, raised bite marks. Additionally, fleas often leave behind “flea dirt,” which will look like small, dark grains of sand, as well as small white eggs that resemble tiny grains of rice.\nIf your dog has an allergic reaction to the bite, the red area may be larger.\nIf your dog has dark fur, run a flea comb once through its fur to check for signs of fleas. Then, tap the comb on a white paper towel to see if any flea dirt or eggs fall off. <img> Watch your dog to see if they scratch excessively. Excessive scratching, licking, and biting at the skin is another clear sign your dog may have fleas. Watch your dog’s behavior to see if they are suddenly itching, biting, or licking at their skin more than is typical. <img> Look for irritation and scabs on your dog’s skin. Scabs, bald spots, and inflammation can be indicative of a number of skin conditions, including fleas. If you suspect fleas, take a look at your dog’s coat to see if the they have any areas of irritation, bald spots, or scabs.\nIf you find any of these symptoms present on your dog, call your vet. In addition to being a sign of fleas, these symptoms could be signs of ticks, mange, and other canine skin conditions. <img> Use a flea comb. If you think your dog may have fleas, you can buy a flea comb from most pet stores. Use the comb to check for fleas, as well as anything fleas may leave behind. Flea combs can make it easier to identify fleas, along with flea eggs and flea dust. <img> Look for jumping adult fleas. In severe cases, you may actually see adult fleas jumping on your dog’s back when it moves. Take your dog to the vet right away for treatment.\nThe severity of the case also depends on your dog, so don’t panic. The vet will be able to tell you how bad it is and prescribe treatment accordingly. <img> ", "Check with your vet. Before using a home treatment, talk to your vet to make sure you get the right product for your dog. Different sized dogs will require different dosages, and young puppies may be too small or young for certain medications. Call or schedule an appointment with your vet to make sure you get the right flea treatment for your dog’s specific needs. <img> Use a flea shampoo to kill fleas. Flea shampoo is a fast-acting way to kill fleas on your dog. It’s a first line of defense, though, and will only last for about a week, so take your dog to the vet for a more permanent oral medication as well. Read over the packaging to make sure you apply the correct amount to the correct areas on your dog. Repeat the bath as recommended by the packaging or your vet.\nToo much topical flea treatment can be irritating and potentially dangerous for your dog. Be careful about using the right amount for your dog’s size and age.\nUse your flea comb to brush out your dog after they dry to help remove any residual flea eggs.\nApplying the flea shampoo correctly should leave very little residue on your dog’s fur, but still be sure to rinse well afterwards. <img> Apply a flea and tick prevention medication to your dog’s fur. The same medication that you use to keep fleas and ticks off your dog can be used to help kill a flea infestation. This treatment is more gradual, so it is most effective when combined with a fast-acting treatment such as a flea shampoo.\nTopical treatments such as Advantage and flea collars can both help manage a flea infestation.\nFlea collars only target adult fleas. You’ll still need to treat your dog with a medication that targets the eggs and fleas in developmental stages, in case any were left over after the bath. <img> Get a prescription for stubborn flea infestations. If your dog has a flea infestation that is causing them a severe amount of discomfort or is otherwise difficult to dismiss, make a vet appointment. Your vet can prescribe medication to get rid of a stubborn infestation, and to help keep your dog comfortable during treatment.\nAlways carefully follow your vet's instructions for administering the medication. Pay special attention to things like dosage, what time of day it should be administered, how many times a day it should be administered, and potential side-effects. <img> Treat your house immediately to prevent a recurrence. Wash your dog’s bed, blankets, clothes, and cloth toys in the washer, using dog-safe detergent and the “sanitation” setting if your washer has one. Disinfect bowls and plastic toys with hot water and dish soap. To remove fleas on the floor or carpet, place a flea collar inside your vacuum bag and vacuum up your dog’s common areas. Empty the vacuum frequently.\nFlea-proofing your environment right after an infestation will get rid of any fleas or eggs that happened to fall off and escape. <img> ", "Use regular flea and tick prevention. You can find flea and tick prevention in tablet, topical, and collar forms at most pet stores. Pick a method that works for your dog, and use it regularly. Apply topical treatment or administer the pill as instructed by your vet or the medication’s packaging. Likewise, flea collars should be changed as recommended by the collar manufacturer. <img> Brush them with a flea comb. Regular brushing with a flea comb can help get rid of fleas before they spread. Brush your dog weekly with a flea comb to help get rid of fleas before they can lay eggs and create a full infestation. <img> Wash your pet’s belongings weekly. Help keep fleas away from your pet by washing their bed and blankets, bowls, toys, and clothing like sweaters weekly. Use hot water and a dog-safe laundry detergent to wash fabrics, using the “sanitation” cycle if your washing machine has one. Wash your dog’s dishes and plastic toys with hot water and dish soap. <img> Keep your house clean. To keep fleas away from your dog, you need to keep them out of your home. Vacuum in the areas where your pet regularly rests, and use flea spray or flea traps around your home. This is especially important if your dog has had a previous flea infestation.\nThe right solution for your home will depend on your particular environment. If your dog has suffered from repeated flea infestations, opting for something like a flea bomb can help you get rid of a lot of pests quickly.\nFlea traps work well as a safety measure in homes where infestations are already controlled. <img> Isolate any infested pets. Keep fleas from spreading from pet to pet by keeping any infested pets secure in their own space. This could include keeping a dog with a minor infestation in a room with a closed door to make sure no other pets can enter. If you have a more significant infestation around your house, you may want to take non-impacted pets to a stay with a friend or at a boarding facility until the fleas clear up.\nIsolation should not seem like a punishment. Make sure your dog has access to plenty of food and fresh water, as well as comfort items like blankets, beds, and toys. Spend ample time with them every day. The point is to keep the fleas from spreading, not to ignore them or make them feel bad.\nAlways wash your hands and change your clothes after you have interacted with a flea infested pet before you allow any other animals to come in contact with you. <img> " ]

[ "Get your containers and soil. Whether you are starting seeds so that you can transplant them into your garden or into larger containers later, you will want to start them in seed starting trays or a large pot, These are large and deep enough so that the seeds will have room to grow, and are compartmentalized to avoid overcrowding. You will also want to select a soil made especially for growing seeds.\nMake sure your seed starting trays or pots have holes for proper drainage. If you choose to plant in a pot rather than starting in trays, a six inch (15 cm) pot should be good enough to start.\nLook for a soil that is made especially for starting seeds, or make your own by combining 1 part each of peat moss, vermiculite, and perlite. <img> Select your seeds. Starting plants, especially herbs and vegetables, from seeds is not always easy, so it’s important to select seeds that have a good chance of being successful. Herbs and vegetables such as lettuce are good choices to start in pots.\nRemember to check your hardiness zone to make sure you are growing a plant that will survive in your area if you plan to keep it outdoors or transplant it later on.\nLook at your local nursery or farmer’s market for seeds that have been carefully screened and selected for quality. <img> Get your pots ready for planting. Rinse out your pots or seed trays to remove any dust and particulates, and moisten your soil. The soil should be damp but not wet. Then, fill your pot up to half an inch (1.25 cm) from the top with your soil mixture.\nIt is also sometimes recommended that a thin layer of sand be added to the bottom of the pot before soil to promote better drainage. <img> Read your seed packet. Your seed packet will typically let you know how deep to plant your seeds, and how far apart each seed should be. Consult your seed packet, or otherwise talk to the seed provider, to get specific instructions regarding how deep and how far apart seeds need to be planted.\nYour seed packet will also tell you the best time of year to start sowing your seeds, if you plan on keeping the pots outdoors. <img> ", "Place seeds in the soil. Once you are fully prepared to start planting, place your seeds in the pot as indicated on the seed packets. Gently press in the seeds, or lightly cover them with a seed-starting mixture or mulch.\nYou can use toothpicks to tweezers to help you distribute and press in larger seeds. <img> Moisten the seeds. Use a mister or a small watering can to moisten the seeds after planting. The top layer of seed starter or mulch should be damp, but not wet. Be sure to add small amounts of water at a time, as adding too much could displace or wash away the seeds. <img> Ensure proper light and temperature. Most seeds will need a consistent temperature of between 65° and 75° Fahrenheit (18° to 24° C) and regular exposure to sunlight to properly germinate. Keep your seeds in a climate controlled environment and a sunny area where your seeds will get a full day’s worth of exposure.\nIf you live in an area where sunlight or temperature is variable, you may also consider purchasing a sun lamp or heating mats to help encourage your seeds to grow.\nSome seed starting trays come with a cover to create a warm, moist environment for the seeds. Keep this on until the seeds sprout from the soil.\nIf you don't have a cover, you can slip a plastic bag over the pot to keep moisture in until the seeds sprout. Keep the seeds out of direct sunlight while the cover is on, or they will overheat. <img> ", "Water seeds as needed. Water the seeds as the soil starts to dry. It should always be moist, but never wet or muddy. Do not water the seeds if the soil is already moist to the touch, as overwatering your plant can be just as harmful as underwatering. <img> Turn the seeds. After the seeds have sprouted, give your pot a quarter turn each day. This will prevent your seeds from overreaching toward the light, which can cause weaker stems. <img> Feed your seeds. Once your seeds start to sprout leaves, you will need to ensure they get proper nutrients. Use a half-strength liquid fertilizer on a weekly or every-other-week basis to keep them growing strong. You can increase the strength of the mixture gradually as the plants grow bigger. <img> Transplant your seedling when necessary. If you started your seedlings in trays, you will eventually need to transplant them to a pot or outdoors. Likewise, as potted plants grow you may need to move them into larger pots. Monitor your plant to make sure it has plenty of room to grow in the pot. If it is outgrowing its space, transplant it into a larger container. <img> " ]

[ "Avoidant people like slowly learning about you piece by piece. Leave your life story at home on your first dates and only share what’s relevant to the conversation you’re having (it'll keep them wanting more). As you get to know each other more, you can open up about your life in more detail.\nLeave bread crumbs about yourself to keep your avoidant interested in you. They’ll think about you more intently (in a good way).\nDon’t withhold too much. An avoidant person likes a little challenge, but also wants to feel like they’re making progress towards figuring you out.\nBeing mysterious doesn’t mean you can’t share your thoughts and feelings. Just share your life story in chapters instead of throwing the whole book at them. <img> ", "Avoidants overthink and doubt themselves when they’re not distracted. Try doing something active or creative together, like a hike or painting class. They’ll get lost in the activity and it’ll be easier for them to build trust and intimacy with you. Try things like:\nRecreational sports or outdoor activities like volleyball or pickup soccer.\nTaking a walk through a new neighborhood or park.\nA cooking, dance, or gardening class. <img> ", "Many avoidants suffer from low self-confidence or damaged self-esteem. If they think you’re out of their league, they’ll start to distance themselves. Make them feel good and desired by complimenting their intelligence, good looks, or the way they make you feel. If you make them feel wanted, they’ll want you!\nIt's difficult to compliment someone who’s pulling away from you. Do your best to say nice things about them even though you’re unhappy about their current behavior.\nLet them know they’re the only person you’re interested in. Say things like “no one is as nice to me as you” or “you’re the most interesting person I know.” <img> ", "Open, relaxed body language makes an avoidant feel secure around you. It shows them that you’re receptive to their advances and invites them to make a move. Physical cues are less overwhelming to an avoidant than words — communicating these same things out loud might cause them to retreat farther from you.\nLean in slightly while you talk, keep your shoulders low and relaxed, make eye contact for more than three seconds, and face them with your shoulders and feet to show your interest. \nTry not to cross your arms or let your eyes wander—it’ll make the avoidant feel nervous or unwanted.\nAvoidants usually have nervous or inhibited body language themselves since they’re not sure how much to interact or proceed with someone.\nDo some light touching on the arm and try to mirror their behavior whenever possible. <img> ", "When your avoidant partner starts to pull away, let it happen. Avoidants believe that no one else gets them, and they need time to themselves to organize their thoughts and feelings. It hurts, but chasing after them when they want to be alone will push them even farther away since they’ll feel like their independence is threatened.\nIt seems cold to let them wander, but for an avoidant, a little cold is attractive!\nOnce they admit to themselves how much they miss you romantically, they’ll return.\nThink of it like fishing—if you pull too hard too fast, you might break the line and lose the fish. Alternate reeling them in and letting them loose a little until they’re comfortable committing. <img> ", "Even when they feel close to you, an avoidant needs alone time. Metaphorically, they want you in their house but not always in the same room as them. Let them know you value independence and alone time so they don’t feel like they’re letting you down by focusing on their interests and careers. Accepting their difficult needs is a surefire way to make them want to be with you more.\nBarrages of texts or frequent requests for attention might overwhelm an avoidant. Discuss boundaries to see what they’re comfortable with—they’ll appreciate your efforts to understand them. <img> ", "The waiting game is crucial to convincing an avoidant to contact you. Let them meditate on you and your relationship and wait for them to initiate the next phase or first move. Even if they’re pulling away, there’s a good chance they still have feelings for you. When they realize you’re not contacting them, they’ll be afraid of losing you and finally give you a call.\nIt’s hard to wait, so occupy yourself with hobbies that fulfill you and spend time with people who support you. Just because you’re waiting on them doesn’t mean your life is on pause!\nA little FOMO can work wonders. If you’re having the time of your life even though they’re not with you, it’ll drive them crazy enough to come running back. <img> ", "Avoidants don’t need much communication to feel satisfied in a relationship. Try to be OK with this and stay patient when you’re waiting for them to call or text you back—it might take them hours or even days to get back to you. Remember that they struggle with communication and chances are they aren’t ignoring you on purpose.\nTry not to misinterpret their slow communication as cruelty or ignorance. When you accuse them of wrongdoing, they’ll take it as a reason to get even more distant.\nIt takes time to accept and get used to this irregular communication. Don’t beat yourself up if you don’t adapt right away.\nWhen an avoidant sees that you’re still there for them during their isolated spells, they’ll feel more confident in you and your future together. <img> ", "When an avoidant is being distant, show them what they’re missing out on! Treat yourself to a clothes shopping spree or spa day, try out a new hairstyle, or do anything that makes you absolutely glow. You’ll pique your avoidant crush’s interest while investing some time in yourself (it’s important to do things that make you feel good while you grapple with their distance).\nDon't confuse looking good with attention from the avoidant. Tend to your appearance because it makes you feel confident—your avoidant would be lucky to be with you right now!\nIf the avoidant sees other people giving you attention or hitting on you, it may trigger their FOMO and motivate them to reach out to you. <img> ", "Avoidants are drawn to people who don’t broadcast their whole life online. It adds to the enticing mystery you’ve built around yourself. This has an added bonus if you’re already dating an avoidant—they’re very private and don’t usually like having pictures of all their dates and outings with you online.\nTry not to post for a few days or weeks. At the very least, avoid posting photos of you with your avoidant date (it'll increase their anxiety).\nOverall, avoidant people use social media less than others as a way to maintain privacy and keep their romantic lives hidden. <img> ", "Nothing scares an avoidant more than when romance moves too fast. It’s tempting to make the most out of moments where they let themselves get close to you (like saying “I love you” for the first time or asking them to move in with you), but it’s best to simply enjoy their efforts to get close to you without any pressure. Over time, it’ll make them feel safe enough to take a risk and chase after you.\nRushing or pressuring them into anything—a commitment, a dog together, even just a date—can make them feel closed in.\nRespect an avoidant’s need for time to make decisions and choose to pursue you. After you stick it out, they’ll feel closer and more trusting towards you. <img> ", "Avoidants isolate when they think they’re dragging the relationship down. It’s important to point out the good and meaningful things they do so they don’t focus on the negative. Tell them what you value about them or highlight the things they do that make you smile. When they feel adequate, they’re more likely to open up and pursue a relationship.\nShare how much you appreciate it when they open up to you (and reassure them you’re always there for them).\nTell them you enjoy their company or that you always have fun when they’re around.\nSubtly acknowledge the sweet nothings and small favors they do for you that hint they’re warming up (a smile or squeeze of their hand is enough). <img> ", "Avoidants look for any opportunity to be disappointed or find flaws. This is how they justify distancing themselves and shutting other people out. Show them they can count on you no matter what by following through on your promises and doing what you say. When they learn they can trust you, they’ll feel more comfortable pursuing you.\nOnly make promises you can keep and follow up on.\nAlways be honest and open about your feelings.\nMatch your actions to your words to prove you mean what you say. <img> " ]

Then, let him know in a friendly tone. He'll leave the conversation thinking about how charming you are.\n“I love the way your new cut sweeps to the side like that. It looks good!”\n“The new haircut has a sort of sporty vibe to it. I really like it!”\n“I really like how the sides are shorter than the top. It looks cool!” <img> ", "When you reassure him about his cut, you'll put his nerves at ease. When a guy gets a new haircut, he may feel like a fish out of water until he gets used to it. Assure him that the cut totally fits his vibe, essence, or personality and he'll be touched by your thoughtfulness.\n“Wow, this haircut really fits your cool, edgy vibe. It looks great!”\n“The new cut makes you look even smarter. That fits, given you’re a total genius!”\nIf you’re afraid to get specific, offer him a more general compliment for the same sweet effect, “That haircut really suits your style, Eric.” <img> ", "For double the effect, tie your compliment to another flattering comment. If you’re looking to really leave an impression, pair your haircut compliment with another compliment on his style, his eyes, or his overall good looks. Commenting on his new haircut is a subtle way to compliment him, but you don’t have to stop there.\nSubtly comment on his great looks: “Wow, your cut looks awesome. I mean, you already looked good, but this is even better!”\nExplain that you’re glad to be able to see his eyes: “Your hair used to cover your eyes a bit. I love this new cut. Your eyes are so green!”\nCompliment his taste: “You pick out the coolest clothes. Apparently your style extends to great haircut choices as well!\" <img> ", "New haircuts can give guys a refined, polished look. He’ll love it if you let him know he’s rocking that post-haircut glow, so don’t hold back. Explain that he’s totally elevated his old look. Use words like “handsome,” “clean-cut,” “dapper,” and “sophisticated” for the perfect compliment.\n“Woah, your new cut makes you look so handsome!”\n“With your new cut and trimmed beard you look totally dapper. If you were ever considering modeling, I’d take the headshot now!”\n“Wow, the new look makes you look so polished. You were handsome before, but this is next level!” <img> ", "Sneakily pretend not to notice his cut for a sweet, effective compliment. Sometimes, guys worry that you're complimenting his haircut just because you noticed it. Tell him this, and he'll believe you really like his hair—because you thought he looked better noticing his cut. Use this if you aim to be casual. You won't earn points for noticing his cut. But he'll love that you boosted his confidence!\n“Wow, you look great. Is something different?”\nStudy his face for a second and tap your chin like you’re thinking something over, “Why do you look so good today?”\nTap a friend and point to your crush, “I’m not crazy right? He looks especially good today for some reason.” <img> ", "Compare him to a stylish celebrity for a compliment that'll really land. Tell him that he looks like someone known for being fashionable or handsome—or someone you know he admires. This compliment will feel especially meaningful because nothing will get lost in translation. He already admires that celebrity’s look and now he knows that his haircut has the same vibe!\n\"Woah, very Zac Efron-esque haircut. I really like it.\"\n\"The haircut is so sleek! It reminds me of Henry Golding.\"\n\"Your haircut looks great. You know whose haircut it reminds me of? Jason Momoa. <img> ", "Show him that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Explain that you or another guy you know is looking for a cool, new haircut—and you think he’d be the perfect inspiration! Use this compliment if you’re a bit nervous and looking for a more subtle form of flattery. You’re just asking for a “friend” after all. Tell him this and he’ll think you’re beyond sweet.\n“Woah, I like the cut. I’m looking for a new one actually. What did you tell your barber?”\n“My best friend is looking for a sporty cut like that—did you bring a photo in? Maybe he could look at it.”\n“Wow, where’d you get that cut? That’s five-star material. My cousin is looking, actually. I want to let them know where you went!” <img> ", "If he’s a bit shy (or you are), be extra considerate of his feelings. Use this tactic if you think there’s a chance that a bold or straightforward compliment might embarrass him as much as it flatters him. Wait until he’s alone, then gently let him know that the cut looks great. He’ll think your empathy is super sweet—and you’ll make his day without making him red in the face.\n“Hey, Arthur. I don’t mean to bother you, but you got a new cut right? I really like it.”\n“I didn’t want to make a big deal in front of everyone—but I wanted to let you know that your new haircut looks great.”\n“I hope I'm not overstepping, but I just wanted to say that your new haircut looks really nice.” <img> ", "If you have a flirty rapport, playfully explain that his new cut looks hot. You two may already fire flirtations back and forth on the daily. In that case, let him know that you think his new cut is completely swoon-worthy. He’ll probably think you’re being a little silly—but he’ll also definitely feel flattered, too.\n“You’re KIDDING me. You knew what this new haircut would do to me. I can’t take it...”\n“Have you seen Too Hot To Handle? I think you’d make a great contestant with that new cut.”\n“Hot haircut alert. When you described that to your barber, did you just ask for the haircut of my dreams?” <img> ", "To turn up the intensity, hint at romantic feelings with your compliment. If you want to subtly clue him in, explain that you have a hard time focusing on anything besides him (and his sleek new haircut). This compliment is perfect if you're looking to signal your interest without being too obvious. You'll flatter him—and leave him dreaming about you, too!\n\"I had a hard time focusing in class today. That haircut is great! It really got my attention.\"\n\"I really love this cut on you, Rufus! I actually couldn't take my eyes off of you to be honest.\"\nStudy his face for a moment and say, \"Sorry, I don't mean to stare! I just think this new haircut looks so nice on you.\" <img> " ]

[ "Avoid things that cause ulcers. Diet, exercise, and lifestyle all play factors in whether or not a horse will develop an ulcer. A horse’s stomach is split into two parts--the non-glandular part which immediately follows the esophagus, and the glandular part, which secretes enzymes like pepsin and hydrochloric acid. The glandular part is coated with mucus and bicarbonates, which protect it from the effects of hydrochloric acid or in common terms Muriatic acid! (Imagine drinking Muriatic acid). The ulceration of the non-glandular part of the stomach is the most common type of ulcer because it does not have the same protective lining as the glandular part. Causes of ulcers include:\nProlonged feeding of concentrates.\nProlonged starvation and low frequency of feeding (feeding only 3x/day).\nStress like prolonged and high-intensity exercise, prolonged or frequent transport, prolonged confinement, depression, and no socialization with other horses.\nProlonged use of NSAIDs (Non-Steroidal Anti Inflammatory Drugs). These drugs block the production of chemicals in the stomach that inhibit acid production.\nStarvation in foals caused by poor mothering mares that lead delayed or infrequent milk suckling. <img> Look for signs of stomach ulcers in foals. Foals may exhibit different symptoms than those of adult horses. Stomach ulcers are very prevalent in foals who have not suckled milk properly and they can actually lead to death. If you notice any of these symptoms, bring your foal to a horse veterinarian immediately. In particular, look for:\nColic or extreme abdominal pain\nTeeth grinding or bruxism\nExcess salivation\nDiarrhea\nPoor appetite\nEmaciation or poor body condition\nAttempting to lie on his back <img> Look for symptoms of stomach ulcers in adult horses. Some of the symptoms that foals exhibit may also become apparent in adult horses. Whenever you observe these clinical signs you should suspect stomach ulcers, and immediately consult or bring your horse to a horse veterinarian. They can diagnose it definitively using an endoscope (a device that can see the inside of the horse stomach) and give proper treatment and advice. Look for:\nPoor appetite\nPoor body condition\nWeight loss\nMild colic\nMental dullness\nAttitude changes\nPoor performance\nLying down on back more than usual <img> ", "Rest the horse for a week. This will ensure that no reflux of acid will reach the non-glandular part of the stomach. During exercise and training, a lot of acids are refluxed, because exercise puts pressure on the stomach. Rapid movement that occurs during training can also cause acids in the stomach to splash. The stomach contains rapidly dividing cells. Resting the horse will ensure that the damaged lining will be repaired. <img> Place the horse in a stall and make sure that his hay bin is always full. Horse stomachs secrete acid in a cyclical fashion. This means that the acidity will increase and decrease throughout the day--sometimes a horse’s stomach will have a pH of 5 or it can drop to as low as a pH of 1. When a horse has hay 24/7, his stomach will always be full. Hay causes the horse to chew more, thus creating more saliva; saliva protects against strong acids.\nThe chewed hay will float in the horse’s stomach and will form a protective layer that prevents the reflux of acids into the non-glandular part of the stomach.\nRoughage like alfalfa hay, for example, contains a lot of substances that act as antacids like calcium, magnesium sulfate, saponins, and mucilage proteins. <img> Feed your horse before letting him exercise. After you have let your horse rest for a week, you can begin to reintroduce him to exercise. Thirty minutes before the exercise, feed him small amounts of alfalfa hay or 500 grams of alfalfa chaff. The alfalfa will create an alkaline layer that blocks acid splashing into the upper non-glandular section of the stomach. <img> ", "Give your horse proton-pump inhibitors. These drugs cause complete blocking of acid production, which in turn lets the stomach heal itself. These drugs are more potent than others and are generally given to the horse once a day.\nOmeprazole and pantoprazole are both proton-pump inhibitors. Omeprazole (dose at 0.7mg to 1.4mg/kg daily), is the only FDA approved drug for the treatment of gastric ulcers in horses. Commercially available paste of omeprazole can be given once a day and during transport. <img> Give your horse histamine Type 2 (H2) receptor Blockers. These drugs cause partial blockage of acid production in the stomach, hence it is given more frequently. In general, you should give your horse this medication three or four times a day.\nCimetidine, ranitidine, and famotidine are variations of this medication. Dose of cimetidine (300 to 600mg 3 to 4 times a day). Ranitidine is effective in foals and is given once a day. <img> Try giving your horse protective coatings. These drugs provide a protective lining in the stomach mucosa and aid in its healing process. There are two main kinds of prescribed protective lining, sucralfate and lecithin.\nSucralfate: this drug binds to the stomach mucosa and may promote healing. Dose for foals (1 to 2 grams in foals 4x a day), in horses (2mg/kg 2x a day).\nLecithin: contains phospholipids and essential fatty acids like linolenic acid (omega 6), and linoleic acid (omega 3). Lecithin binds to the lipid layer of the stomach, providing an additional layer of protection against acids, omega 3 and omega 6 fatty acids strengthens the cell membranes of the stomach lining. <img> Try other substances that promote protective lining growth. Other substances that give a protective layer in the stomach include slippery elm powder, low protein whey powder, and psyllium husk. These substances can be given as slurry before feeding, or as top dressing in dry feed. <img> Give your horse antacids. Sodium bicarbonate can be used up to 200grams per dosing to provide short term relief, and neutralize gastric acid, it is usually given after feeding whole grain rations. <img> Give your horse probiotics. Probiotics include yoghurt products containing Lactobacilli spp. As a daily, these probiotic supplements can help as the beneficial bacteria competes with ulcer forming bacteria.\nProstaglandins can also combat bad bacteria. These are recommended in horses that have developed ulcers because they have high doses of NSAIDs. <img> " ]

[ "Use single brackets if you’re going to hang the swag by itself. If you’re just going to have the swag over the window without any curtains, single curtain rod brackets are the way to go. Single brackets will hold up 1 curtain rod, which is all you need for the swag. <img> Get double brackets if you want to hang curtains up with the swag. Double curtain brackets come with 2 slots instead of 1 so they can hold 2 curtain rods. If you want to hang up regular curtains that you can open and close along with the swag, you’ll need to use 2 rods.\nThe swag will go on the front rod, and the curtains will go on the back rod. <img> Measure the width of the window to find out how long of a rod to get. To measure the width of the window, take measuring tape and measure from the outer edge of the window frame on the left side of the window to the outer edge on the right side of the window. Write the measurement down so you have it when you're shopping for curtain rods. <img> Get a rod that's at least 2 inches (5.1 cm) longer than the width. Traditionally, curtain rods extend further than the width of the window. The more the curtain rod extends over the sides of the window, the larger the window will appear. If you want to make the window seem bigger, choose a rod that's up to 1 foot (0.30 m) longer than the width of the window.\nAvoid using a rod that's not at least 2 inches (5.1 cm) longer than the width of the window frame or it could be too short.\nDon't use a rod that's longer than 1 foot (0.30 m) or it could look too long above the window. <img> Use a decorative or cafe curtain rod for your swag. Both decorative and cafe curtain rods can hold a swag, whether it's scarf-style or made with a rod pocket. If you're using a particularly heavy swag, you may want to go with a decorative rod since they're sturdier.\nAvoid using a traverse curtain rod for your swag. Traverse curtain rods are designed to hold curtains that have pins that hook into the rod. Since curtain swags don't have these pins, a traverse rod won't work. <img> ", "Mark 4–8 inches (10–20 cm) above your window on either side. This is the level you’ll hang the curtain brackets at. The higher you hang the brackets, the larger your window will appear. Avoid hanging the brackets more than 8 inches (20 cm) above your window or your swag may look too high.\nMake the marks with a pencil so they’re easy to erase.\nDon't hang the brackets less than 4 inches (10 cm) above the window or it may look too crowded. <img> Hold the brackets on the wall above the frame and mark the screw holes. You want 1 bracket on either side of the window frame. Hold them so the screw holes are level with the marks you made earlier.\nMake sure the distance between the brackets isn’t greater than the length of the curtain rod or else the rod won’t fit. Use a tape measure to measure the length of the rod and then measure the distance between the brackets. If the distance between the brackets is greater, move them closer in toward the frame. <img> Use a long level to make sure the bracket marks are lined up. Place the level between the bracket marks so the top edge is lined up with the each of the marks. Then, check the gauge in the center of the level — if the air bubble is outside of the marked lines, the bracket marks aren't level. If that's the case, redraw the bracket marks so they're level with each other. <img> Drill pilot holes through the screw hole marks you made. A pilot hole is a pre-drilled hole that makes it easier for screws to go into a surface. To drill the pilot holes, use a drill bit that’s slightly smaller than the screws that came with the brackets. Drill into the screw hole marks you made on both sides of the window. <img> Screw the brackets into the wall. Hold the brackets on the wall so the screw holes are lined up with the pilot holes you drilled. Then, drill the screws that came with the brackets through the holes until the brackets are secure. <img> ", "Slide the swag onto the curtain rod if it has a rod pocket. Rod pocket curtain swags have a pocket along the top edge that slides onto the rod to hold the swag in place. If your swag has a rod pocket, slide it onto the end of the curtain rod. Then, center the swag on the rod so the front of the swag is facing out.\nIf you’re not using a rod pocket swag, you can skip this step. <img> Wrap the swag around the curtain rod if it’s a scarf-style swag. Scarf-style curtain swags don’t have a rod pocket. Instead, wrap the fabric around the curtain rod so it drapes like a regular swag. Start by hanging one end of the swag over one end of the rod. Then, hang the other end of the swag over the other end of the rod. Let the fabric in the middle drape down.\nWhen you’re finished, the draped fabric in the center should look like a regular curtain swag.\nWith a scarf-style swag, you can experiment with different wrapping techniques until you find something you like. For example, you can wrap the swag so it's asymmetrical, with one end of the fabric hanging down further than the other end. <img> Put the curtains on the second curtain rod if you're hanging any. Attach the curtains to the second curtain rod using the rod pocket, holes, or clips that the curtains came with. When you're finished, there should be 2 curtain panels on the rod. <img> Mount the curtain rod in the brackets. Set the ends of the rod in the bracket holders so the rod is centered over the window. If you’re using double brackets with 2 rods, mount 1 rod in the back bracket holders and the other rod in the front bracket holders.\nWith double brackets, the rod with the swag should be in the front and the rod with the curtains should be in the back. <img> Adjust and center the curtain swag. If you're using a rod-pocket swag, make sure it's slid all the way to the center of the rod. Also, check to make sure there aren't any parts of the rod pocket that are bunched up — if there are, smooth them out with your hands.\nIf you're using a scarf-style swag, make sure the draped part of the fabric is centered on the rod. <img> " ]

[ "Wash and dry your hands. Use hot water and an antibacterial soap to thoroughly wash your hands, making sure to scrub in between all of your fingers and on every surface. Dry your hands on a fresh, clean towel, instead of a hand towel that has been used by others.\nWhen cleaning out any wound it is very important to have your hands clean and dry. This will prevent you from adding more germs and bacteria to the wound. <img> Inspect the wound closely before touching it to determine if you can clean it. Look closely at the wound to figure out where the wound opening is and where the pus is coming from. If you see areas where the pus is on the surface of the wound, you can clean these at home. If you see that the pus is inside of an abscess, a raised area of skin that is sealed, then it’s best to have it drained by a medical professional.\nTake your time assessing the wound so that you don’t disturb areas that are not exuding pus and are healing. Disturbing these areas unnecessarily can just open up the wound, creating another area where germs and bacteria can enter. <img> Apply a warm compress or soak the wound. For a compress, use a small clean towel, such as a washcloth, soaked in warm water. Gently lay it on the surface of the wound and let it sit there for a few minutes without applying pressure. After a few minutes take the compress off the wound and very, very gently wipe the surface to remove any pus that you have loosened. If you want to soak your wound, fill a clean sink or basin with warm water. Submerge the wound for up to 20 minutes and then pat the area dry with a clean towel, removing any pus that has been loosened.\nRepeat your compress or soak once or twice a day.\nIf your wound is closed with sutures, it’s especially important not to submerge it in water. Only use a compress and follow your doctor's directions for wound care. <img> Clean the area with soap and water. Apply a small amount of liquid antibacterial soap to the wound and then rinse it off thoroughly. Be sure to be as gentle as possible but to get all the soap off with clean water. It's important to get rid of the bacteria and any debris that is coming out of the wound in the pus. Doing this once a day will keep the wound clean and will help it heal.\nOnce cleaned with soap and water, pat the area dry with a clean, fresh towel. Make sure it is totally dry before you bandage the wound or apply medication.\nIf the wound is on a child, tell them not to touch the wound while it is drying and before you are able to re-bandage it. <img> ", "Go to the doctor if your wound is infected and won't heal. If your wound is infected, it's important to get medical care so that the infection doesn't grow and spread to other parts of your body. Signs of an infection that needs medical care include dark red coloring around the wound, abscesses forming on the wound, a large amount of pus coming out of the wound, and that you have a fever or generally feel unwell.\nWhile it is important for you to know how to care for the wound correctly, it's also important to know when to get professional medical care. If you have been cleaning the pus correctly for several days and your wound still won't heal and it continues to produce pus, then it's time to contact your doctor. <img> Have the wound cleaned out by a medical professional. A doctor can remove the pus with a syringe and drain the area. If the area has a large abscess, the doctor may need to open it up with a scalpel or insert a drainage tube, which will allow pus to drain out of the wound freely. They will often pack the wound with gauze, that you will then have to change daily.\nIf the area is very tender and painful, your doctor may be able to apply an anesthetic to the area to dull the pain during the procedure. <img> Follow your doctor's instructions for future cleaning of the wound. Once your wound has been cleaned and the pus removed by your doctor, they should give you instructions for aftercare. Typically this will include directions for changing any dressings and cleaning the wound as it heals. Follow your doctor’s instructions so that the wound will stop producing pus and can heal properly.\nThe directions will vary slightly depending on where the wound is and how infected is has become. <img> Take antibiotics to eliminate the infection. In many cases, taking antibiotics is what is really going to get rid of the pus and allow your wound to heal. Your doctor may prescribe a topical antibiotic that you will need to apply to the wound or a systemic medication in pill form that you will take daily.\nIf your wound is highly infected, it's likely you will need to take an antibiotic pill that will help stop the infection and prevent it from traveling elsewhere in the body.\nFollow your doctor's directions for when to apply or take the antibiotic and for how long to use it. It's important that you take it for as long as prescribed, even if it appears your wound is totally healed, so that the infection is totally eradicated. <img> ", "Do not stick tools or swabs into the wound. While you may be tempted to use a cotton swab or another tool to pull the pus out of a wound, there is a large chance that in the process you could reopen the wound further or introduce more bacteria into the wound.\nBecause of this risk, it’s best to only do surface treatments at home and if you think that the wound needs more detailed cleaning, seek out care from a medical professional. <img> Avoid squeezing the wound. It may seem like this would be an effective way to remove pus but it's not. Squeezing the area can actually push some of the pus down deeper into the wound instead of getting rid of it all. Squeezing will also open up the wound further, which can create more risk of infection.\nInstead, be gentle with your wound as it heals and allow your body to heal itself. <img> Avoid touching the pus and don't get it on surfaces. If you touch your wound with dirty hands, that can make the infection worse. Also, the pus can be a symptom of a contagious infection, so getting it on things that other people use can spread the infection.\nFor instance, use separate towels from the rest of your family members. This will help minimize the risk of other people getting a contagious illness.\nAlso, wash your hands often. This will minimize the chance that the infection is spread by touching things with dirty hands. <img> " ]

[ "Use computers whenever possible. Submit your papers and other homework via email. If you have laptop then use it. <img> Ask instructors to create a blog or website. Instructors can put all assignments, lecture notes and handouts online using a blog or website to which all students have access. They can also set up a dropbox or other collection tool to which students can submit papers and homework. <img> Tell your school about free paper-saving software. You can download software that will help save paper by removing wasteful content when printing from the Web and reformatting documents to print more efficiently. Well-reviewed ones include FinePrint, PrintEco, & Printfriendly. <img> Make two-sided copies. Adjust your copier's settings so that the machine prints on both sides of the paper when you're making copies of multi-page documents. <img> Re-use printer paper. Align discarded printer paper so all the blank sides are facing one direction, 3-hole punch it and send it through the printer again for a second use. <img> ", "Ask for donations. Local businesses often have reams of unused paper goods that might include outdated letterhead, envelopes of the wrong size and old signs. Ask companies in your neighborhood or your parents' places of business to donate these paper goods to your school. (In many cases, it's tax-deductible!) <img> Ask your school to buy recycled or alternative paper products. Besides being better for the environment, recycled paper products can be less expensive, too. You can also find products made from non-tree sources such as hemp, bamboo, banana, kenaf and crushed stone. <img> Advocate for page-flipping catalogs. Ask your administration to forgo product catalogs and purchase supplies from companies that have websites or page-flipping catalogs and online ordering. Encourage your school to eliminate paper promotional materials and put all newsletters and catalogs online themselves. <img> Use notebooks and tablets wisely. You can purchase notebooks made from recycled paper. Once you do, go a few steps further in your paper-saving efforts and use both sides of the paper. Write smaller (but still large enough for you to read what you've written) and avoid leaving a lot of white space on the page.\nDon't do silly things with paper such as passing notes, making airplanes or spitballs or throwing it at your classmates' heads. These activities are both paper-wasting and trouble-making. <img> Request individual white boards. Rather than work out math equations or create brainstorm lists or do other in-class activities on paper, students could use small white boards with ultra low-odor dry-erase markers. Some marker brands are even made from recycled materials and are refillable, too. <img> Think outside the classroom. Paper products are used in the kitchen, cafeteria and restrooms at school, so strategies for reducing paper waste should take these areas into account as well.\nBe sure your school is buying napkins, paper towels and bathroom tissue made from recycled paper.\nLobby for hand dryers instead of paper towels.\nPost reminder \"These Come From Trees\" stickers on napkin and paper towel dispensers to help remind people to reduce unnecessary use. <img> ", "Get across-the-board involvement. A successful recycling program depends on the support of students, teachers, staff, administrators and custodians. Form a committee that's made up of individuals from each of these populations to develop a program that takes into account everyone's needs and addresses everyone's concerns.\nDesignate one person as the representative for each group so that they can explain the need for recycling to their peers and ask for their support. They can also help communicate program developments and changes and be the \"point person\" for questions that arise. <img> Determine paper pickup. In some cities, paper recycling is the law and collected paper will be picked up on scheduled trash days. In other locations, you'll need to find a drop-off point or pick-up service to take your paper. The website Earth911 has a search feature that allows you find recycling services in your area. You can also search online to find a local materials recovery center or recycling drop-off center and see if they'll accept your paper.\nIf you can't find a drop-off center for your paper, you may have to explore paying for a pick-up service to haul it away. Research costs associated with this to be sure if will ultimately benefit your school. <img> Set guidelines for acceptable paper. Depending on how and where you'll dispose of your recycled paper, you may have to limit or separate what you collect. Some collection locations will accept \"single stream,\" meaning a variety of paper grades mixed in one collection box, or they'll want \"sorted stream\" drop-offs, meaning you'll need to separate papers by grades (there are five basic paper grade types.) Certain types may not be accepted at all. Find out what and how your collection agency takes and structure your program accordingly.\n\nOld corrugated containers. Also known as “corrugated cardboard,” this kind of paper is typically found in boxes and product packaging.\n\nMixed paper. This broad category includes things like mail, catalogs, phone books and magazines.\n\nOld newspapers. The name of this category says it all.\n\nHigh grade de-inked paper. Your school will undoubtedly have the most of this kind of paper, which includes things such as envelopes, copy paper and letterhead.\n\nPulp substitutes. This paper is usually discarded scraps from mills, so it's unlikely you'll have to worry about it, although there's always a chance that it could be a part of paper products your school buys. <img> Secure collection boxes. See if your local recycling center can provide you with collection boxes; otherwise, purchase some plastic tubs to serve the purpose. Keep them all the same color and/or clearly mark them as paper collection boxes so that no one accidentally puts garbage in them.\nIf you must sort your paper, use labels or images of the kinds of paper that should be deposited into each different box. <img> Provide education. Not only do you need everyone on board for your program to be a success, but everyone should be well informed and clear as to how the program works. Consider asking environmental science or social studies instructors to devote a class period to discussing the guidelines of the recycling program. Or plan to have educational assemblies for explaining the program, including information about what kind(s) of paper is being accepted and the location of the collection bins.\nCreate a reference card with information about the program to distribute to everyone in the school. Or, to save paper, create a web site or page on your school's site where everyone can reference program guidelines. <img> Chose a central location for paper storage. You'll need a place where you can store the collected paper between recycling drop offs or pick ups. The copy machine room may be a good choice or perhaps a section of a large storage closet.\nPut safety first and do not allow large piles of paper to block exits or be stored near flammable chemicals. Check with your local code enforcement office to make certain you're in compliance with all applicable building and fire codes. <img> Keep enthusiasm high. Once your recycling program is off the ground, keep people excited about it by reporting on it's progress and recycling and savings goals you meet.\nMake weekly or monthly announcements over the PA system or via your school's closed circuit television of the amount of paper that's been recycled to date. Remind everyone of the importance of maintaining the program and use the opportunity to clarify any confusion and address any questions or concerns that have been raised.\nPlan field trips to your local recycling center or invite guest speakers to come to your school to discuss the value of a recycling program and its positive financial and environmental impact. <img> Work around obstacles. If your school is reluctant to establish a recycling program, ask if you can conduct a simple paper waste audit to find out what is being thrown out and from where. Once you can show your school the amount of waste paper being generated and thrown out, those in charge may be more motivated to adopt recycling. <img> " ]

[ "Be yourself. Sometimes we feel like we have to act a certain way to \"fit in\" and feel accepted. The reality is, it's a lot harder \"faking it\" than it is to just be yourself. It can be emotionally and physically draining, and often times makes you feel worse about yourself.\nPeer pressure can be difficult when all you want is for people to accept you. But true acceptance starts with yourself. Learn to be compassionate toward yourself — forgive mistakes and learn from them. Remember that there never has been and never will be anyone else exactly like you, and that's a pretty amazing thing. No one can do you as well as you can. As Judy Garland said, \"Always be a first-rate version of yourself and not a second-rate version of someone else.\"\nBe optimistic that people will like you for you. <img> Listen to your inner voice. When we're not sure of ourselves, we're influenced by what others think or say to determine who we are and how we act. Each day, reflect on what you really think about a situation, person, or action with the ultimate goal of voicing or acting in accordance with your values in order to live genuinely. Your inner voice helps to tell you the difference between what's right and wrong.\nAre you acting in a way that you think is right, and matches what you really think? Or are you just \"going along with everyone else\"? Think about someone who is heroic for their efforts in the community. What do you think that hero would do?\nBy following your intuition, you will get closer to who you really are. Don't be afraid to listen. Focus less on judging others, and more on accepting them (and yourself) for who they are. \nPractice being assertive, meaning you clearly express yourself while respecting the views and beliefs of others. <img> Look inside yourself, rather than in a mirror. What you wear and how much money you (or your family) has does not define you. Pretending to \"have it all\" by wearing fancy clothes or acting better than other people isn't genuine or sincere.\nBeing real means being honest about what you want versus need, hope versus fear, and like versus dislike.\n\"Dressing to impress\" is not a requirement 24/7. While it is healthy to look good, and have others compliment you, you cannot define your sense of self only by what others say or think. <img> Take a step back from social media. In our modern world, there are lots of ways we can create artificial, or \"fake,\" images of ourselves in order to feel better. Your Instagram or Facebook selfie may look good in that moment, but it's not who you are as a true person. It is an image and nothing else.\nGetting people to \"follow\" or \"like\" you in social media can have an emotional toll, as you feel the need to compete with others for attention rather than thinking about what really matters in life. <img> Evaluate what matters to you. Instead of trying to get attention or make people respect you through your external image, understand that people will actually pay attention to you if you really have something to say. Think about your values. Values determine what is important to you, and being \"real\" means your actions and words are in line with your values. If compassion and human rights are what matter to you, don't worry too much about things like social standing; act out of compassion and kindness. For instance, if no one is sitting next to the new girl at lunch because she seems really geeky, go ahead and join her.\nSuperficial people are not open to difficult situations. Rather than avoiding people when they don't \"fit in,\" lend a hand, and make an impact in a real and honest way.\nWe all have ups and downs in life. Share both the ups and the downs, not just one or the other. <img> ", "Stop pretending to be happy all the time. By pretending to be happy all the time, you are likely avoiding important issues with people and things going on in your life. You may have a tough decision to make, or be really struggling through a difficult situation.\nWhile it's okay to say you're doing \"fine,\" there are times when you don't have to smile and pretend everything is fine. You are human. You have good days, bad days, and so-so days.\nThis is not an excuse to act angry, mean, or rude, but rather you don't have to put on a fake smile all day. It's important that sometimes you confront your feelings rather than ignore them. <img> Break the mold of what society says. You may feel that society is giving you the message that \"being fake\" is normal, healthy, and expected, and that everyone should want and value the same things. But there are many downsides to this way of thinking. Here are a few to consider:\nPretending to know more, or be better at something than you really are, will often end badly. Particularly if you are pretending to have more skills for a job or project than you do.\nFaking it to fill some void, or feeling like you're not good enough, is an issue of self-esteem. Faking self-confidence can be harmful in the long run to your mental and physical health.\nBeing fake doesn't necessarily get you more, or better things, in life. It is like lying — a temporary fix to a persistently deeper issue. <img> Remind yourself that no one is perfect. We all want to be the best, the most popular, well-liked, and most successful. The reality is that no one is perfect, even the people that you look up to. The popular people, the outgoing and bubbly people, the highest paid people, they all have problems.\nWhile having someone to admire is important, think about what challenges they may have faced, and the fact that no one was born with a perfect life.\nThe people who \"you wish you could be\" all worked and struggled. If they say it just came \"naturally,\" they are likely lying. Life is often about trial and error, in hopes of you reaching your better, happier, smarter, and more beautiful self. <img> Do things that you really enjoy. If you feel like you're pretending to enjoy things that you don't, you don't have to. When we do the activities that we like, we are happier and more sincere about what we do.\nBy pretending to like something that you don't, people may notice, and wonder why you're acting that way. Pretending out of politeness is different from pretending in order to fool others and yourself. If you are trying to fool yourself into liking something, that likely will not last.\nIt's okay to have a different opinion or interest in something. You can still have a good time even if you have differences with other people. <img> ", "Stand up for yourself. Don't be fooled by someone's looks, or how they talk about lavish or expensive things. Listen to what they are really saying and doing. Are they negative, mean, or critical of people? Do they make you feel less or not good enough? They are likely acting out of insecurity — faking a sense of superiority or self-esteem.\nIf they are your friends, be honest with them about how their actions make you feel, and see if they respond in a caring and sincere way. If they don't, consider spending time with other friends.\nDon't let someone make you feel less than, even if he has a fake smile throughout. Sometimes calling someone out on what he is doing can help to change the way he is acting. For instance you could say, \"You know Bill, I see you smiling but you actually seem uncomfortable or upset. Is something wrong?\" <img> Cope with people who appear to lie or exaggerate. Fake people may be emotionally immature, or feel bad about themselves. Instead of coping with this in a healthy way, they lie and manipulate in order to make themselves seem better that others. They have an exaggerated sense of self that simply hides what they are really feeling. \nThey may see your successes as competition and attempt to \"one-up\" you in order to feel good.\nWhen you encounter someone like this, remember that she is coming from a place of fear and insecurity, no matter how confident she may seem in the moment. Instead of getting angry or trying to fight back by one-upping her, try to look at her behavior with compassion — think to yourself, \"Wow, she must be feeling really insecure right now.\" Then just smile and refuse to participate in her game. <img> Surround yourself with friends and family who have stuck with you. Fake friends often don't last. They don't know how to have a strong and long-lasting relationship based on trust. Instead of continuing to hang out with people you know are fake, think about those friends and family who have known you for many years (maybe a lifetime).\nSpend more time with those who know, love and care about you.\nTalk with parents, school counselors, or mentors that may have advice about what you're feeling.\nMake an effort to reconnect with friends or family that you may have ignored or lost touch with. Some of them may not respond, but the real friends and family will forgive and forget. <img> " ]

[ "Wash your hands before cleaning your piercing. Never attempt to clean a piercing without washing your hands first. Bacteria from your hands can easily rub off onto the piercing, so wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water before beginning the cleaning process.\nWash your hands with clean, running water and soap for 20 seconds. To keep track of time, hum the \"Happy Birthday\" song to yourself twice.\nMake sure to wash your hands completely. Do not forget to wash under your fingernails, between your fingers, and the backs of your hands. <img> Use mainly the aftercare spray provided by your piercer. Your piercer should provide you with an aftercare spray used to clean your piercing. For most sprays, you only need to mist them on your piercing three to six times a day. This minimizes the need to touch the area around your piercing, which can increase your risk for an infection.\nIf your piercer did not provide you with an aftercare spray, buy one online or from another piercer in the area.\nUse your spray as instructed on the bottle or by your piercer. If you have any questions about the spray, call your piercer. <img> Treat crust with a sea salt solution. Crust sometimes builds up around an eyebrow piercing. This should be removed promptly to prevent infection. A simple sea salt solution is used to remove salt.\nDissolve a quarter cup of sea salt in a cup of warm water. Then, soak a cotton ball in the solution.\nPlace the cotton ball over your piercing. Hold it in place for two to three minutes. This should dissolve any crust built up around the piercing. <img> Keep soap away from your piercing. Soap is not a good option to clean an eyebrow piercing. It can cause irritation, especially when a piercing is fresh. Stick to sea salt and the cleaner your piercing provided. <img> ", "Keep soap and shampoo away from your piercing in the shower. Be extra cautious during your regular shower routine. Minimize using soap and shampoo near your face. Getting these products in your eyebrow piercing can cause irritation.\nWhen shampooing your hair, it can help to tilt your head back while applying the shampoo. Leave your head tilted backwards throughout the entire shampooing process to keep shampoo away from your piercing.\nWash your face with gentle face wash and avoid getting it on your eyebrow piercing. Facial cleansing wipes are also a good option. <img> Do not get moisturizers or makeup in the piercing. If you use makeup or facial moisturizers, do not apply them near the piercing. These products can irritate or contaminate a piercing. Makeup brushes also may contain bacteria, so applying makeup near your piercing poses a risk.\nTry taking a break from makeup for a few days after getting your eyebrow pierced. <img> Keep the piercing clean while sleeping. Keep all bedding clean, especially pillows, while the piercing is new. Change your sheets more often than normal as your piercing heals. For the most part, sleep on the opposite side of the piercing to prevent contamination. <img> ", "Practice basic self-care. The best way to keep your piercing from becoming infected is to build up your own immune system. A basic healthy lifestyle is the best offense to prevent an infection. Eat a healthy diet and get enough sleep while your piercing is healing. This will help your body fight off potential infections. <img> Leave the jewelry in place for the first six months. Do not remove your piercing prematurely. This can cause an infection. Leave the piercing in place for the first six months before changing out your jewelry.\nIn the event you notice an infection, do not remove the jewelry on your own. While this may seem like it makes sense, it can make an infection worse. First, call your doctor to get treated for the possible infection. If it's necessary to remove the piercing, contact your piercer and have them do so. <img> Stay away from swimming pools. Do not go swimming in a pool or lake while the piercing is healing. Bodies of water contain a lot of bacteria. Your piercing will be extra susceptible to bacteria while it's healing. <img> Avoid nicotine and alcohol. Nicotine and alcohol lower your immune system. This lessens your body's natural ability to fight infections. While your piercing is healing, limit your use of alcohol and nicotine products. <img> " ]

[ "Balance the body of the guitar on top of your dominant thigh to hold it. In a seated position, move your dominant leg slightly forward and bend your knee to place your foot flat on the floor. Place the guitar on your thigh, orienting it so that the strings are facing away from you and the head (the small tip of the guitar) is pointing in the opposite direction from your dominant side.\nKeep the guitar upright and hold the back of it close enough to you that it touches your stomach and chest while resting on your thigh.\nUse your non-dominant hand to hold the neck of the guitar. The neck is the long piece of wood that connects the head of the guitar to the body.\nIf you have trouble balancing the guitar, attach a strap to the guitar and place it over your shoulder to make it easier to keep the guitar upright. <img> Grip the neck using your thumb and forefinger. Form a “V” shape with the thumb and forefinger of your non-dominant hand and place the guitar neck in that “V” to stabilize it. When you want to play the guitar, press your thumb flat against the back of the neck and use your fingertips to press down on the strings.\nAvoid hooking your thumb over the top of the neck, even if it feels more natural to grip the guitar this way; doing this will cause you to grip the guitar with too much force and will limit the reach of your fretting fingers.\nThe flat side of the neck is called the fretboard because it’s inlaid with metal frets that indicate where to put your fingers to play specific notes. <img> Memorize the names and numbers for the different strings of the guitar. In order from thickest to thinnest, the strings of the guitar are named E, A, D, G, B, and e. The strings are also numbered from thinnest to thickest so that the e string is also called the 1st string and the E string is called the 6th string.\nThe strings descend in pitch from 1st string to 6th string, so the E string is the lowest in pitch, while the e string is the highest.\nIt’s important to remember the names and numbers of your guitar strings to be able to read tabs and talk about specific notes.\nTry using a mnemonic device to remember the guitar strings, such as “Eddie And Debbie Got Brown eggs.” <img> Hold your pick with a firm but comfortable grip. A pick is a small piece of plastic used to strum the guitar or play individual notes. To hold the pick, grip it between the thumb and index finger on your strumming hand and orient it so that it’s perpendicular to your fist. Your grip should be firm enough to hold the pick in place while you’re playing, but not so tight that it’s uncomfortable.\nYour thumb and finger should cover about ⅔ of the pick, leaving a little more than ⅓ of it sticking out of your hand.\nYou don’t necessarily have to use a pick to play the electric guitar, but you should definitely hold the pick in a comfortable and proper way if you use it. <img> Play the guitar without fretting any strings to practice your strumming. Use your strumming hand to strum all 6 strings at the same time in a downward stroke and do this until it feels natural. Once you’re comfortable with downstroke strumming, practice strumming all 6 with an upward stroke as well.\nIf you don't want to be too loud while practicing your strumming, you can simply “mute” the strings by lightly touching them with your fretting hand so that no sound is produced when you play.\nStrum the guitar by moving your wrist up and down rather than by moving your whole arm up and down. This will make your strumming more energy efficient and reduce your risk of injury in the long run.\nOnce you’ve gotten the hang of performing downstrokes and upstrokes individually, try strumming the guitar in a downstroke-upstroke-downstroke-upstroke pattern until you’ve gotten the feel of it. <img> Practice strumming and fretting the strings at the same time. To play a note on the guitar, press your finger down between the frets on the fretboard; this is called \"fretting the strings.\" While pressing down 1 or more strings with your fretting hand, strum the guitar with your other hand. This will help you get used to doing 2 separate things with your hands at the same time.\nDon’t press down on the frets themselves, as this will produce a buzzing sound instead of the note you were trying to play.\nOnly press down on the strings as hard as is needed to produce a clean note. If you press down too lightly, the string will buzz. However, pressing down too hard will only put more strain than necessary on your fingers.\nDon’t worry about playing chords yet; just focus on getting the basic movements down first! <img> Dip your fingertips in ice water or rubbing alcohol to manage finger pain. Although your fingers will definitely be sore when you’re first starting out, this pain will go away after enough time. Use ice water or rubbing alcohol treatments to minimize finger pain when you experience it. Remind yourself that the pain is only temporary to avoid letting it discourage you from continuing to play guitar.\nYour fingertips will eventually grow calluses that make playing guitar a lot less painful. Calluses usually take at least a month or 2 to grow, so don’t feel discouraged if they don’t grow immediately!\nApply rubbing alcohol to your fingers 3 times a day for a week to encourage calluses to grow faster. <img> ", "Start out by learning to play a simple first position chord. A chord is a harmonic group made up of 3 or more individual notes. First position chords, such as the C chord, A chord, and G chord, are the easiest to play, so one of these should be the first chord you learn.\nNote that when you play certain chords, you don’t strum all 6 of the guitar strings. For example, when you play the C chord, you only play the bottom 5 strings and ignore the E string entirely.\nPractice the correct finger placement on the fretboard for the chord first. Once you’re comfortable pressing down on the right notes, work on strumming and fretting at the same time. <img> Learn how to play 3 more simple chords after you’ve mastered 1. Almost any song you hope to play on the electric guitar will involve at least 4 different chords, so you’ll need to master more than just 1 to play guitar well. Work on learning the other first position chords before tackling anything more complicated.\nFor example, if the first chord you learned to play was the C chord, the next 2 you learn to play should probably be the D chord and the G chord.\nFollow the same process of learning the correct finger placement on the fretboard first, then practicing strumming the guitar while pressing down on the right notes. <img> Practice switching from 1 chord to another. Place your fingers in position for 1 chord, then move them into position for another chord. Repeat this process until you can quickly switch between the 2 chords. Then, add a third chord into the mix and continue switching your finger placement as quickly as you can.\nYou’ll eventually get to a place where you can quickly switch from 1 chord to another without even thinking about it (which is exactly what you need to do to play guitar!). <img> Add increasingly complex chords to your repertoire. Once you've learned the rest of the simple guitar chords, such as the D and E chords, the next thing to do is learn how to play barre chords. Barre chords are played by using your index finger to press down all the notes on a single fret. Although they’re more challenging, barre chords are very important for playing a wide variety of songs.\nSome of the most important barre chords to learn how to play are the E major chord, E minor chord, A major chord, and A minor chord.\nOnce you’re comfortable with playing 1 or more barre chords, practice switching between them and moving from a barre chord to a simple chord on the fretboard. <img> ", "Create a daily practice schedule and stick to it. Learning to play the guitar well is something that requires dedication. However, you don’t have to devote all of your time to practice. Simply set aside 15-30 minutes every day to practice playing guitar and commit to sticking to this schedule no matter what.\nUse this practice time to work on the chords you already know and add new chords to the mix. Once you know enough chords, try learning to play a whole song!\nSome examples of easy guitar songs for beginners include the Beatles’ “Love Me Do,” Creedence Clearwater Revival’s “Proud Mary,” and Neil Diamond’s “Sweet Caroline.” <img> Use music books to learn new chords and techniques. If you’re just looking for new chords to learn, you can buy books that include the guitar chords for a lot of famous and popular songs at nearly any music store or book retailer. Many music books will also include helpful tips and techniques for playing the guitar that you may not have encountered in practicing on your own.\nSome books will also include helpful multimedia tools, such as CDs, that make learning new techniques on the guitar even easier. <img> Visit music websites to find tabs and tutorials for songs. Websites like ultimate-guitar.com and ultimate-tabs.com have a large database of tabs (simplified forms of musical notation) that tell you how to play different songs on the guitar. For extra help, there are also plenty of video tutorials on websites like YouTube where more experienced guitar players offer tips on how to play songs from start to finish.\n\nGuitar tabs are an easier way to read chords if you can’t read traditional sheet music. Tabs use 6 horizontal lines to represent the guitar strings and numbers on those lines to indicate which frets you need to press down to play the chord.\nYou can visit ultimate-guitar.com at this URL: https://www.ultimate-guitar.com/. You can visit ultimate-tabs.com at this URL: https://www.ultimate-tabs.com/ <img> Set a realistic goal to achieve with your practicing each week. For instance, aim to learn 2-3 new chords each week or be able to switch between 2 chords flawlessly. Whatever goal you set, make sure it’s specific and achievable. Your goal should also be measurable so that you know when you’ve achieved it. \nFor example, if your goal is to learn 2 new chords, you can easily judge whether or not you’ve learned 2 new chords after 7 days. However, if you set a goal like “practice new chords,” it’s harder to tell whether you’ve actually achieved this goal by the end of the week. <img> " ]

[ "Don't worry too much about what language you pick. Many beginning coders struggle with what language to pick when they first start learning. (Because they don't know where to start with their first code). The actual language that you start learning on doesn't make a big difference when it comes to learning about data structures and logic. These are the skills that matter most, and they can be honed with any language.\nWhen picking a language, just focus on what kind of development you want to start with and pick an introductory language from there. For example, if you want to learn web development, start with HTML5, supplemented with CSS, JavaScript, and PHP. If you want to want to do desktop applications, start with C or another basic programming language.\nIf you make coding a career, you will find that you may never use the language that you first learned to code. Instead, you will be learning languages as you go through documentation and experimentation. <img> Find free resources online for the language you choose. The internet is a treasure trove of free tutorials, classes, and videos, all tailored towards the language of your choice. You can start getting a basic grasp of just about any introductory language in a day.\nPopular sites include Bento, CodeAcademy, Code.org, html.net, Khan Academy, Udacity, W3Schools, Code School and many more.\nThere are a variety of language-specific starter guides available right here on wikiHow.\nYou can find how-to guides for almost any programming scenario on YouTube.\nStack Exchange is one of the more popular Q&A sites for any programming questions you may have.\tEXPERT TIP\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tArchana Ramamoorthy, MS\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tChief Technology Officer, Workday\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tArchana Ramamoorthy is the Chief Technology Officer, North America at Workday She is a product ninja, security advocate, and on a quest to enable more inclusion in the tech industry. Archana received her BS from SRM University and MS from Duke University and has been working in product management for over 8 years.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tArchana Ramamoorthy, MS\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tChief Technology Officer, Workday\t\t\t\tOur Expert's Story: \"I came to coding with zero background in either computer design or programming. When I wanted to learn to code, I started by reading Java books and using online information. In today's world, there are so many resources available, so it's very easy to learn new skills!\" <img> Download a good text editor. Many programming languages allow you to use external text editors when you write your code. Find a text editor that will allow you to see indentations and code markup.\nPopular programs include Notepad++ (Windows), TextWrangler (OS X), JEdit, or Visual Studio Code. <img> Download any necessary compilers. Some programming languages require a compiler in order to run the code that you create. Compilers translate the code you write into a lower-level language that the machine can process. Many compilers are open-source and free to use. Languages that require compilers include:\nC\nC++\nC#\nJava\nBASIC\nFortran <img> Start your first project. Pick a good introductory project that will help you get your feet wet. There are a variety of suggestions and tutorials online, but some places to start are basic websites for HTML, basic database and form functions with PHP, or simple programs with any of the compiler languages. <img> Comment all of your code. All programming languages have a comment feature that allows you to enter text that is ignored by the compiler. This allows you to add comments to your code. These comments are crucial, both for letting others know how your code works and for reminding yourself what your code does.\nYou can also use the comment function to quickly remove code from your program for testing purposes. Put comment tags around the code you want to exclude and then remove the comment tags to return the code. <img> Pick apart other programs or web projects. When you're learning as you go, don't be ashamed to look things up and see how others have tackled the same tasks. Take time to understand why the code is doing what it does.\nSee this guide for details on how to view the source code of websites. <img> ", "Take classes. Community colleges, tech schools and online programs offer certifications and classes that will help you get a job as well as teaching you programming. An advanced degree like Computer Science is not always necessary, but could help to get a full time programming job.\n(A lot can be said for having one-on-one time with a teacher or programming expert, something that isn't always available with online sources.)\nClasses can get expensive, so weigh the benefits. If programming is just a hobby, classes may not be worth the time and money. If you want to turn programming into a career, classes can give you a big boost (but again, it's far from necessary if you have the talent). <img> Expand your knowledge. Beyond simply learning programming languages, you will benefit a lot from logic and mathematics classes, as these are often required for advanced programming. You don't necessarily need to learn this at school, but classroom settings can help.\nProgramming involving physics calculations and other simulations requires a strong understanding of algorithms and models.\nLogic is the fundamental basis of programming, so understanding logic and processes will help you problem-solve when you are coding.\nKnowing advanced math isn't required for most programming, but the knowledge can lead to benefits and optimizations. <img> Learn more languages. Once you've got a good grasp on your initial language, you can start to branch out. Find another language that complements the one you know, or pick a language for a specific job that interests you. Complementary languages, such as HTML and CSS, are often the easiest to learn.\n\nJava is one of the most popular languages, and there are often lots of opportunities for Java developers. Java can run on a huge variety of systems and has innumerable applications. Java is used for Android applications, one of the fastest growing markets.\nC++ is highly recommended for developing video games. Learning how to code in Unity (a widely used, low-cost game engine) and UDK (the code for the popular Unreal engine) can help open some doors, though they aren't as useful outside of the video game industry.\nIf you want to make iPhone apps, Xcode and Objective-C are going to be your primary tools. You'll also need a Mac, since Xcode can only compile on a Mac.\n\nPython is a server scripting language that is one of the easier languages to learn. Python is used for web services such as Pinterest and Instagram, and is simple enough to learn the basics in just a few days. <img> Be patient. You will often be faced with challenges while programming, especially when it comes to hunting for bugs or implementing a new idea. You'll have to learn to be satisfied with achieving small results rather than solving a whole puzzle at once. Patience leads to more effective code, which will lead to better-performing programs and happier colleagues. <img> Learn to work with others. If you have multiple people working on a project, you get multiple viewpoints on how to go about it. Working on teams is virtually unavoidable in the business world, so unless you're planning to develop everything independently, be prepared to work with others. <img> Get a job where you can practice your coding skills. Work as a volunteer designing websites or writing desktop applications. A part time job with a small company can lead to opportunities to write code for websites or simple applications. <img> Connect with other programmers. There are countless communities and gatherings of developers that can help support and inspire you. Look up local programming conventions, participate in a hack-a-thon or game jam (timed events with a common theme), and sign up on some programming forums to start expanding your exposure and network. <img> Practice, practice, practice. It is estimated that it takes about 15,000 hours before you can be considered an expert in computer programming. This is years of applied practice. True mastery of programming will come only after you put the time in to practice and become proficient.\nTry to spend time programming every day, even when you're not working.

[ "Cut an aircraft cable. Purchase a ⅛ inch aircraft cable. Then, use wire cutters to cut the cable so that it is 48 inches (1.2 meters) in length.\nYou can purchase an aircraft cable at your local hardware store. <img> Drill two holes in a washer. Using a 5/32 inch drill bit, drill two holes in a flat washer. Lay the washer flat and drill one hole at the top and the other hole at the bottom of the washer. For example, the two holes should be located at 12 and 6 o’clock.\nPosition the holes between the pre-existing center hole of the washer and the outer rim. <img> Pinch the washer using a vise. Place the washer in a bench vise and pinch the washer. It should bend slightly in half. This will form the lock for the snare. <img> Thread the aircraft cable through a nut. Take one end of the cable and thread it through a ¼ inch nut. Then, thread it back through the nut creating a loop. Continue to pull the cable back through the nut until you have a loop with a ¾ inch (2 cm) diameter.\nLeave an extra inch of cable at the end. <img> Hammer the nut closed. Place the nut on an anvil and hammer the nut so that the cable is fastened in place and the loop is secure. <img> Push the cable through the washer holes. Then, push the cable through the top hole of the washer, from the outside of the bend to the inside. Pull the cable about a foot through the washer. Then, loop the cable through the bottom hole of the washer from the inside of the bend to the outside.\nThis should create a loop. <img> Thread the end of the cable through a nut. Create a stopper at the end of the cable. Thread the end through a ¼ inch nut. There should be about ½ an inch (1 cm) of cable sticking out through the center of the nut. <img> Hammer the nut closed. Place the nut on an anvil and hammer it so that the nut tightens around the cable, locking it in place.\nThe snare is now complete and ready to be set. <img> Set the snare trap. In order to set a snare trap, you want to place it on a trail or path that is frequented by coyotes. Then, attach the small looped end of the snare to a solid object, such as a fence post or small sapling. This will anchor the snare in place. Hang the larger loop from a nearby branch so that the bottom of the loop is approximately 12 inches (30 cm) off the ground.\nWhen a coyote walks past it will mistake the hanging wire for a branch and walk into the snare. The loop will tighten, trapping the coyote as it continues walking and the bent washer will prevent the loop from loosening. <img> ", "Select a trap. The most common coyote trap is a jaw trap. In order to make a trap set, purchase a no. 3 coil spring trap. This will be the appropriate size to trap a coyote. You can purchase a trap at your local hunting store. <img> Create a trap bed. When setting a trap, you need to dig a trap bed. The trap bed should be large enough so that it can fit the trap when opened and laying flat. It should be about 1 inch (2.5 cm) deep so that it can be covered with dirt and hidden. <img> Cover the trap with dirt. Set the trap and then place dirt over top of the trap. Pour the dirt through a sifter so that it gently sprinkles over the trap. Try and make the area look as natural as possible. You can also lay larger sticks or mounds of grass and dirt along the sides of the trap. These can be used as guides to make sure the coyote steps on the trap.\nWhen placing guides, be sure to make it look as natural as possible. Do not put the sticks in a straight line. They need to look like they fell there naturally. <img> Dig a tunnel near the trap bed. Once the trap is covered by dirt, dig a hole about 8-10 inches away from the trap bed. The opening of the hole should be facing towards the trap bed and the hole should be two inches in diameter and dug on a 45 degree angle.\nThe hole is supposed to look like it was dug by a small rodent, such as a mouse or mole and the small dirt pile that is covering the trap will look like the dirt that was removed from digging the hole. <img> ", "Position the trap on a natural coyote trail. The best traps are located in areas where coyotes naturally walk on a regular basis. Typically, these paths are located along fences or other field boundaries. Before setting your trap look for coyote tracks or traces of hair. This will help you determine where the coyotes travel. <img> Use bait to lure the coyote. Meat is the best way to attract coyotes and can actually lure coyotes from a wide area. Use a piece of raw meat, such as beef or wild game. Coyotes will also be attracted to dog food, which can act as a cheap substitute to raw meat.\nThis meat could also attract domestic animals, such as dogs. As a result, you should place the trap far away from homes.\nYou can also purchase lures and scents from a hunting store. <img> Ensure the traps do not have a human smell. Coyotes have a very sensitive sense of smell and will avoid an area if they smell humans. As a result, you should always wear gloves when setting traps so that your scent is not left near the trap. You can also spray the area surrounding the trap with commercial coyote lures to cover up the smell. <img> Approach a trapped coyote with caution. If you successfully trap a coyote, you will need to cautiously remove the coyote from the trap. Read the local laws in your jurisdiction concerning coyote trapping. In some states coyotes that are trapped must be euthanized. Other locations may have specific handling legislation. Always wear gloves when removing a coyote from the trap. This will help prevent the transmission of diseases, such as rabies.\nIf the animal is still alive, you may want to contact a wildlife control expert. <img> " ]

[ "Look for natural ingredients. When you’re browsing different sheet masks, check the ingredient list on the package. No matter your skin type, it’s best to go with ingredients that are natural and generally beneficial for your skin. Look for the word “organic” and grab a mask that has aloe and/or kiwi extract.\nStay away from masks that contain synthetic dyes, parabens, and mineral oils, as these can all irritate the skin.\nAloe has moisturizing and cleansing qualities that may help to fight aging, heal sores, and reduce acne.\nKiwi extract may help with keeping your skin firm and soft. <img> Treat dry skin with humectants. Humectants typically do a good job with hydrating your pores and minimizing fine lines on your face. Get a sheet mask that contains humectants, such as hyaluronic acid, butylene glycol, and glycerin, to get rid of flaky skin. <img> Clear up acne with a snail extract gel mask. This is beneficial to those who struggle with acne because it helps the skin retain water and also heals and soothes blemished skin. If you’re dealing with a breakout, consider looking for a gel sheet mask instead of a regular cotton one, as a gel mask may help more with acne.\nSnail extract is also beneficial for those with normal skin. <img> Use a yogurt mask on oily skin. These masks help minimize your pores and also keep oil production under control. Additionally, yogurt acts as a natural exfoliant that effectively cleans out pores. <img> Get a clear gel mask to soothe sensitive skin. This type of mask moisturizes inflamed areas and is also very soothing on irritated skin. It will leave your skin looking attractively soft and dewy.\nThis type of mask is especially beneficial to those with skin conditions, such as eczema. <img> Get a naturally hydrating mask if you have combination skin. If your t-zone is typically oily but other areas of your face are dry, get a mask that prioritizes cleansing and hydrating. Look for natural ingredients, like sea kelp, that help the skin shed toxins and moisturize the skin at the same time. <img> Read product labels. Often, sheet mask packages will contain information on which skin types benefit the most from the specific product. Refer to the packaging for guidance in this area. <img> Read reviews online. There are a lot of different sheet masks out there to choose from. If you feel stuck between a few different ones that all seem to cater to your skin type, go online and look up reviews for each product. Go with the one that seems to have the best reviews overall. <img> ", "Wash your face. Wash your face before putting the mask on so that your skin is best equipped to soak in the essence. Create a lather with a cleanser of your choice and warm water and massage it into your skin. Then rinse it off with fresh water and pat your face dry with a hand towel.\nIf you have oily skin, look for a oil-control cleanser that deep cleans pores and balances pH.\nIf you have dry or combination skin, get a hydrating cleanser that washes away impurities without stripping away your natural oils.\nIf your skin is sensitive, try dense, creamy, foaming cleansers that balance pH. <img> Apply toner to your face. Toner takes the cleansing to a deeper level by making pores look smaller, balancing pH, and picking up any left behind makeup or dirt. Put a few drops of toner onto a cotton ball and rub it all over your face. This will prepare your skin for the mask so that it can fully reap the benefits of the essence.\nNo matter your skin type, look for a toner that has aloe vera, rose, chamomile extract, cucumber extract, lavender and/or hyaluronic acid.\nIf you have oily skin, get a toner that contains sandalwood or tea tree.\nIf you have normal or combination skin, look for a toner that contains willow bark or witch hazel.\nIf your skin is dry and/or sensitive, use a toner that contains calendula. <img> Open the mask package and massage the essence into your skin. Carefully pull out the sheet mask and squeeze the essence into your palm. Put the sheet back into its package and use your hands to massage the excess essence into the skin on your face, neck, and upper chest. <img> ", "Put the mask on. Carefully remove the mask from its package again and unfold it completely. Lay it on your face, making sure to match up the eye, nose, and mouth holes. Spend a few seconds pressing the sheet mask onto your skin so that it sticks and makes as much contact as possible. <img> Keep the mask on for about 20 minutes. Check the package for timing directions and follow them strictly. Most sheet masks need to be kept on for 15 or 20 minutes, and no longer. Turn on some music and lay on your back with your eyes closed while you let the mask work its magic.\nIf you leave the mask on for too long, it may dry out and start pulling moisture back out of your face.\nSet a timer if you’re worried you’ll lose track of time. <img> Peel the mask off. After the correct amount of time has passed, peel the sheet mask off by starting at the chin and pulling up. Then, discard the mask. <img> ", "Massage the leftover liquid into your face. The essence is great for your skin, so resist the urge to scrub, wipe, or wash it off of your face. Instead, use your fingers to dab in the essence that remains on your skin. <img> Lock everything in by applying moisturizer. Once most of the essence has absorbed into your skin, squirt a bit of your favorite moisturizer, cream, or oil-based serum into your palm and then massage it into your face. This will act as a seal on your face, which locks the essence into your skin.\nHydrate your skin with a serum if you have wrinkles, dullness, or dark spots.\nUse a cream or ointment if your skin is dry.\nTry using an oil-based moisturizer if you have sensitive skin.\nIf you aren’t sure which moisturizer to use, go with a non-comedogenic lotion. <img> Put sunscreen on your face. While they contain many other beneficial ingredients, most sheet masks don’t include sun protection. If you’re using your sheet mask in the morning, put a product on your face that has an SPF afterwards to protect your skin from the sun all day.\nGo without the sunscreen if your moisturizer has an SPF. <img> Use sheet masks as often as you want. Sheet masks contain ingredients that are good for your skin, so nothing bad should happen if you use them frequently. For optimal skin improvement, try using sheet masks once or twice per week. Or, simply use sheet masks as often as your skin seems to need them. <img> " ]

[ "Change those spark plugs often! Platinum spark plugs may claim to last 100,000 miles (160,000 km), but they have been known to foul up at just 75,000 miles (121,000 km). Spark plugs are relatively inexpensive and (depending on the vehicle) easy to replace. If you're not that handy or mechanically inclined, read some auto repair books or be-friend a mechanic. <img> Limit your driving. This article includes ideas such as carpooling, combining trips and taking the first parking spot you find. <img> Find good gas prices. This article offers tips about making sure you are paying a competitive price for the gas you do buy. Be sure to recognize the value of the gas you spend to go out of your way. <img> Take care of your car. A properly maintained vehicle will run more efficiently and give you better mileage, which saves you money in gas. <img> Fill up efficiently. This involves three things:\nConsider whether to fill your tank up full or halfway. Filling up your tank halfway will reduce your car's weight, increasing your mileage slightly. However, if your nearest gas station is significantly out of the way of your daily route, make sure to take into account the gas spent driving to the station and the value of your time.\nDon't top up your tank between fills. It is wasted money and bad for the environment because it invariably forces liquid fuel into the evaporative emissions system, where it overwhelms circuits that route fuel tank vapors to the engine.\nWait until you have a quarter tank, but don't push this any further. Doing this can extend your gas mileage because you are hauling a lighter fuel load. It also gives you the opportunity to buy more gas if you run across a bargain. However, in cold weather, you run an increased risk of condensation in the fuel tank. Running a car with less than a quarter tank can shorten the life of the electric fuel pump, and running on empty will often destroy the pump. <img> Top off the air in the tires every few weeks to the car manufacturer's recommended pressure. This is best done when the tires are cold (have not been driven on more than a mile or so). It is proper for them to have a few psi higher pressure after extensive driving, but filling them hot should generally be avoided unless they are very low on air to avoid inaccuracy. Excessive pressure adds very little efficiency and can cause bad handling and uneven tire wear. Some gas stations, notably Sheetz gas stations, have air pumps that are free to use and automatically inflate the tires to a pressure set on the pump. These are very convenient. (If an automatic pump seems to be adding an unexpectedly large amount of air, double-check its progress with a hand air gauge to avoid overfilling.)\nIn California, gas station operators are required to offer free air to customers who purchase fuel. <img> ", "Buy a diesel. Some diesel cars offer mileage comparable to popular hybrids. Getting a diesel car also allows for use of bio-diesel or even waste vegetable oil (WVO/SVO) fuel. Though diesel pricing can vary widely from traditional petrol. <img> Buy a hybrid. Not only do hybrids give you immediate savings at the pump, the U.S. government and your local state offer tax breaks for people who use gas-saving cars. Federal deductions for using gas-saving cars can be as high as $2,000, but check before buying to see if they're still in effect. Also, check with your insurance company because hybrids have higher insurance rates. <img> Buy a smaller car. Generally speaking, smaller cars are lighter and get better mileage. <img> Pay more attention to the torque specification than horsepower when evaluating a vehicle for purchase. Many engines produce maximum torque at a rarely used RPM. An engine that produces maximum torque in the range of 2200 to 3000 RPM will yield usable power. An engine operating at its torque peak will be more efficient. <img> Buy a motorcycle or scooter instead of a car. They are cheaper and often get 70 MPG or more. Riding gear is available for most weather conditions. A good example is the Kawasaki EX250, which costs about $3,000, gets 60-70 MPG at highway speeds, and can go 0–60 mph (96.6 km/h) in under 6 seconds! <img> ", "Avoid idling. While idling, your car gets exactly 0 MPG, while starting the car uses the same amount as idling for 6 seconds. Park your car and go into the restaurant rather than idling in the drive-through. Idling with the air conditioning on also uses extra fuel. Also, avoid going so fast that you have to brake for someone. Whenever you brake, you waste the gas it took to get going that fast.\nCars can have fuel efficiency and keep up with the community standards for speed limits.\nIf you drive at the safe and appropriate speed for the driving conditions, it can save gas and maintain the car better.\nSpeeding can burn more gas. It may require you to stop and start frequently and put extra wear on your brakes. <img> Plan your trips in advance. This can prevent wasting fuel and wasting time. Plan to use alternative routes. Often, back roads can prevent you from stopping at traffic lights and more importantly sitting in traffic jams. Try to schedule your trips and errands when traffic is lighter. <img> Use a global positioning system (GPS) to navigate and find the fastest and shortest distance to your destination. Avoiding hills and stops will increase your gas mileage. <img> Drive at a consistent speed. Avoid quick acceleration and hard braking. Cruise control will keep you at a constant speed, even when going up and down hills. <img> Avoid using cruise control when driving on hilly highway roads. The cruise control will keep you at a constant speed, which means it will not anticipate a coming hill and accelerate to meet it. It will make the car idle downhill and then flaw it for the uphill sections. It is far more efficient to turn it off on these roads and maintain the flexibility of normal driving. <img> Avoid stops. If approaching a red light, see if you can slow down enough to avoid having to actually stop (because you reach the light after it is green). Speeding up from 5 or 10 mph (8.0 or 16.1 km/h) will be easier on the gas than starting from full stop. <img> Anticipate the stop signs and lights. Look far ahead; get to know your usual routes. You can let up on the gas earlier. Coasting to a stop will save the gasoline you would otherwise use maintaining your speed longer. If it just gets you to the end of a line of cars at a red light or a stop sign a few seconds later, it won't add any time to your trip. Ditto for coasting to lose speed before a highway off-ramp: if it means you catch up with that truck halfway around the curve instead of at the beginning, you haven't lost any time. In many cities, if you know the streets well, you can time the lights and maintain the appropriate speed to hit all green lights. Usually this is about 35 to 40 mph (56 to 64 km/h). <img> Maintain a safe following distance. Don't stick to the bumper of the car directly in front of you. You will brake more and accelerate more to keep that unnecessary and dangerous narrow gap. This also gives you a lot more room to play with when you are timing traffic signals. Likewise, ignore tailgaters. They will tailgate you whether you go the speed limit, or 100 mph (160 km/h) over the speed limit. Allow them to pass when it's convenient. <img> Slow down. Air resistance goes up as the square of velocity. The power consumed to overcome that air resistance goes up as the cube of the velocity. Rolling resistance is the dominant force below about 40 mph (64 km/h). Above that, every mph costs you mileage. Go as slow as traffic and your schedule will allow. Drive under 60 to 65 miles per hour (97 to 105 km/h) since air grows exponentially denser, in the aerodynamic sense, the faster we drive. To be precise, the most efficient speed is your car's minimum speed in it's highest gear, since this provides the best \"speed per RPM\" ratio. This is usually about 45 to 55 mph (72 to 89 km/h). <img> Take off slowly from a full stop. This is one adjustment that will have dramatic effects on your gas mileage; don't tear off from a stoplight or stop sign! <img> Stay well away from store fronts where you will spend significantly more time idling and waiting for pedestrians and other vehicles. <img> Use A/C only on the highway. At lower speeds, open the windows. This increases the drag and reduces fuel efficiency, but not as much as the A/C at low speeds (35-40 mph). Even better, at any speed, turn on the vent when it is cool outside or open windows just a few inches. The air con - when used a lot - is known to use up about 8% of the fuel you put into your car. <img> Shift into neutral if you are not comfortable with downshifting. Standard transmission vehicles may save gas by shifting into neutral when going down hills steep enough to maintain speed (although engine braking is safer on steeper declines). Do not do this in a hybrid car; they use this \"regenerative engine braking\" to generate electricity and charge the batteries. Note: This strategy will result in more wear and tear on your brakes. Neither of these strategies are recommended for normal automatic cars. <img> Park in the shade. Gasoline actually evaporates right out of your tank, and it does so faster when you park directly in the sun - winter or summer. Parking in the shade also keeps it cooler inside, and you will need less A/C to cool off when you get back in. If there is no shade available, park so that your gas tank (the actual tank under the car, not the valve to fill it) is facing away from the direct sun. Also, today's fuel systems are supposed to be airtight. Your gas cap should have a seal in it. Make sure that the seal is keeping the fumes in and outside air out. <img> " ]

[ "Determine your body shape to help you choose flattering pieces. While everybody is different, most female bodies fall into 1 of the following body shape categories: pear, apple, straight, inverted triangle, or hourglass. Start by measuring around the fullest part of your chest, the smallest part of your waist, and the widest part of your hips. Then, rank your bust, hip, and waist measurements from largest to smallest.\nIf your bust and waist are smaller than your hips, you are a pear shape.\nIf your bust is larger than your waist and hips, you’re an inverted triangle.\nIf your bust, waist, and hips are about the same, you have a rectangle shape.\nIf your waist is wider than your bust and hips, you're an apple shape.\nIf your waist is smaller than your bust and hips, you have an hourglass shape. <img> Emphasize your bust if you have an apple body shape. If you have an apple body shape, wear tops that highlight your bust and show off your shoulders. Try to avoid clingy materials around the waist area, and gravitate toward thin belts rather than thick ones. Solid colors tend to look better than busy patterns on apple bodies, but feel free to experiment!\nYou can also choose to emphasize shapely legs with tights and skirts.\nKeep in mind that these aren't hard and fast rules—there is plenty of room for experimentation. <img> Wear formfitting clothes that accentuate your waist if you're a rectangle shape. For rectangle body shapes, try form-fitting tops and scooped necklines to give your body more curves. Skinny jeans and dresses that emphasize your waist are also great options.\nStay away from shapeless dresses, shoulder pads, and boxy tops and coats.\nCinch loose clothes at the waist with your favorite belt so that your shape doesn't get lost in the fabric. <img> Choose pieces that hug your curves if you have an hourglass shape. If you’re an hourglass, go with tops, pants, and dresses that hug your curves and emphasize your waist. Avoid shapeless and baggy clothing.\nStay away from pieces with extra fabric at the hips or bust to keep your look proportionate. Avoid wearing ruffles or pleats around your waist or hips.\nBe sure to wear supportive undergarments that fit you well! <img> Go with clothes that accentuate your upper body if you have a pear shape. For pears, try wearing tops in bright colors and prints to draw attention to your upper body. Stick to dark pants and skirts to slim your hips and waistline.\nAvoid details, like beads or other embellishments, at the hip or rear, since these can draw attention to those areas.\nGo with wide necklines, like boat-necks, scoop-necks, and sweetheart necks, to broaden your shoulders and emphasize your bust. <img> Accentuate your waist and legs if you have an inverted triangle body shape. If you’re an inverted triangle body shape, opt for tops with vertical stripes, A-line dresses, and bottoms that accentuate your waist and legs. Select wide-legged pants and skirts with bold, horizontal patterns to create the illusion of volume.\nAvoid pieces that make your hips look slimmer, like pencil skirts, skinny jeans, and other tapered cuts.\nStay away from boxy shoulder pads and other shoulder embellishments that draw attention to this area. <img> Opt for clothes that are comfortable and fit you well. Avoid buying clothes just because they’re on sale! Always try them on first and make sure they fit you well. If the item is too long, loose, short, small, or big for you, leave it on the rack. Also, go through your current wardrobe and get rid of anything that doesn’t fit you well.\nIf you own clothes that are too small, donate them to charity or give them to a little sister or cousin. Try to avoid keeping something that “might fit you again one day” if it’s already too small.\nToss out baggy clothing unless you think it can be tailored to fit you perfectly. It’s usually only worth spending money on tailoring an item if it’s something really nice, though.\nKeep in mind that some clothes are supposed to be loose or formfitting! However, if your clothes are dragging on the ground, or if you feel like your movements are restricted, the items don't fit well. <img> Wear colors that look great with your skin’s natural undertones. No matter what your skin tone is, your skin’s undertones will fall into 1 of 3 categories: cool, warm, or neutral. Once you determine your undertones, choose clothes in colors that complement your undertones for a simple way to look polished and put-together.\nPeople with warm undertones look great in reds, oranges, yellows, ivory, browns, and gold.\nCool tones match well with greens, blues, pinks, purples, and silver.\nIf you have neutral undertones, you can pull off almost any color! Go with medium shades of any color you want and avoid pastels. <img> ", "Buy staple pieces that you can mix-and-match for an effortless look. Wardrobe staples are items that never go out of style, which means you can rock them at any time and feel confident that you look stylish. It’s really easy to build an outfit around staple pieces, especially if they’re solid colors that you can mix-and-match with other items in your closet.\nClassic staple pieces are basic white T-shirts, black leggings, neutral-colored cardigans, long-sleeved button-down shirts, blue jeans, and black leather jackets.\nDon't cater too much to the trends—these usually last just a season. Wear trendy pieces as accents and mix these up with your basic pieces. <img> Select a base item to build the rest of your outfit around. Once you determine a base item, you can easily build complementary pieces around it to complete your outfit. This could be a top, bottom, or even a cool pair of shoes. Picking the rest of your ensemble will be a snap once you have the initial element laid down!\nFor example, you might decide you want to wear black skinny jeans, a colorful halter top, or a patterned sweater. <img> Opt for pieces in contrasting solid colors to create visual interest. Contrasting colors break up your outfit and keep it from looking uniform. When choosing contrasting colors, try to stay within the same shade range. If you start with a neutral, pair it with a contrasting neutral.\nFor example, pair a jewel-toned color with another jewel-toned color. If your base piece is pastel, choose a contrasting pastel piece to go with it.\nPairing a white top with black jeans is a simple way to make your neutral outfit pop. Neutrals work in any season.\nWear a pastel pink skirt with a pastel blue polo shirt for a cute spring look.\nA burgundy long-sleeved shirt under a sleeveless forest-green corduroy dress would be great for fall. <img> Pair print or patterned base items with solid-colored pieces. Avoid wearing multiple patterns or prints simultaneously. If your base item is a cute plaid skirt, make sure your other elements are solid. Choose solid colors pulled from the pattern of your base item to pull your look together.\nFor example, if your plaid skirt is mostly navy blue with forest green and tan as secondary colors, choose a top that matches 1 of the secondary colors to tie the look together. <img> Try a half-tuck so that your shape isn’t swallowed up by a baggy top. You can always tuck in your shirt completely, but if you’re styling a casual outfit with a loose top, experiment with tucking half of the front of the top into your pants. That way, your waist isn’t lost in baggy layers and your outfit looks a little more polished.\nFor example, half-tuck a loose sweater into regular fit blue jeans for a cozy, stylish look that doesn’t swallow you whole. <img> Choose a third layer in a complementary or contrasting color and texture. Layers can quickly elevate any outfit and create a more stylish vibe. Cardigans, hoodies, tights, vests, and jackets are typically considered to be third layers. Select colors that tie into or contrast with your outfit. Opt for fabrics with a different texture than your base items.\nFor example, pair a pumpkin-colored cable knit cardigan with a burgundy silk top and dark wash skinny jeans.\nElevate a basic white T-shirt and blue jeans with a black leather moto jacket.\nTop off your outfit with a well-cut blazer or fuzzy cardigan in a contrasting color. <img> Go with cuts and styles that flatter each other when building layers. Create a streamlined look by selecting layers that make sense with the cut and style of your base pieces. It can be fun to pair contrasting styles, but wearing layers in similar styles always looks put-together and effortless!\nFor example, avoid wearing bulky or baggy layers on top of fitted pieces. If you're wearing skinny jeans and a fitted shirt, top it off with a slim-cut cardigan or perfectly tailored blazer for a polished ensemble.\nIf you're wearing an edgy graphic T-shirt with your favorite band's name emblazoned on the front, pull on a leather jacket and biker boots to complete your street-ready look. <img> ", "Wear shoe colors that complement the colors of your outfit. Black and nude shoes go with almost any outfit, so when in doubt, reach for one of those colors! If your outfit has a lot of brown in it, avoid black shoes and opt for brown or nude shoes instead. If you’re wearing a bright pattern, wear solid-colored shoes. If your shoes are bold, like a leopard print, pair them with solid-colored tops and bottoms.\nAdd another visual element to your outfit by choosing shoes with an interesting texture, like suede. <img> Match your shoes, belt, and bag for a polished look. If you’re wearing black shoes, pair them with a black belt and black bag to instantly pull your entire outfit together. Do the same with nude and brown accessories. Make sure the hardware matches, as well!\nFor example, if your belt has a silver buckle, your bag and shoes should also have silver elements.\nYour jewelry, like bangles, necklaces, and earrings, should also match. If your belt has a gold buckle, wear gold earrings. <img> Grab a pair of statement sunglasses to complete any outfit. Fun sunglasses can take almost any outfit to the next level! Choose sunglasses that flatter your face shape and match or contrast with the colors of your outfit for the best results.\nFor example, try a pair of black cat-eye sunglasses for a classic look. Oversized shades or round lenses are great for bohemian styles. <img> Stack your rings for a cool, street-style vibe. If you’re into boho or easy glam looks, try layering your rings! Put your biggest ring on your index finger of either hand. Then, layer regular and midi rings on your ring fingers. Finish off the look with 2-3 contrasting midi rings on your middle fingers. <img> Apply natural makeup for a fresh-faced look if you like makeup. Makeup isn't a requirement, but it can help you feel more confident and put-together if you enjoy wearing it. Apply a lightweight foundation that matches your skin tone and use a dab of concealer to hide any imperfections and breakouts. Sweep on a subtle, rosy blush and a hint of mascara for a fresh, natural makeup look.\nIf you have oily skin, use a little powder to get rid of shine.\nGo with a nude or berry lip gloss or stain. <img> Create a neat and simple hairstyle before you head out the door. Run a brush through straight hair to remove tangles. If you have curly hair, use your fingers or a wide-toothed comb to get rid of any knots. Then, wear your hair loose around your shoulders, pull it up to get it out of your face, or apply a texturizing product to shorter styles to provide shape and definition.\nTry applying a small amount of anti-frizz cream or serum to tame flyaways.\nIf you have limited time in the morning, consider getting a low-maintenance haircut that's super easy to style. <img> ", "Wash your face twice a day to keep your skin clear. Wet your face with lukewarm water and gently massage a dime-size amount of face wash into your skin with your fingertips. Avoid scrubbing your face roughly! Then, rinse away the cleanser with warm water. Repeat this process every morning and each night before bed. You should also wash your face after sweating heavily.\nIf you have dry or sensitive skin, you may want to limit cleanser to once per day, preferably in the evening. You can splash your face with plain warm water in the morning to rinse off your skin.\nAvoid harsh cleansers that list alcohol as an ingredient to prevent dry skin. <img> Apply moisturizer after washing your face to keep skin hydrated. After washing your face, gently pat your skin dry with a clean towel. Then, use your fingertips to apply a pea-sized amount of moisturizer all over your face. Be gentle around the delicate eye area when you're rubbing the product into your skin.\nUse a moisturizer with SPF 20 or higher in the morning to prevent sun damage.\nYou can use a thicker moisturizer without SPF in the evening for an extra dose of hydration.\nBe sure to choose a moisturizer that’s formulated for your skin type. <img> Brush your teeth at least twice a day and floss at night before bed. Dental hygiene is important for looking and feeling great every day! At a minimum, brush your teeth every morning before you leave the house and every evening before bed. Follow up with floss in the evening to remove food between your teeth. Rinse out your mouth with a quality mouthwash to kill germs and bacteria that cause bad breath.\nIdeally, you should brush your teeth after each meal.\nIf you want to brighten your smile, try a whitening toothpaste.\nVisit your dentist at least once a year to get a cleaning and check for cavities. <img> Shower at least once per day to keep your body clean. Most people should shower at least once a day; you can do this in the morning or at night before bed, depending on your personal preference. You should also shower after sweating heavily.\nBe sure to shampoo your hair at least once per week, depending on your hair type and texture. You can use dry shampoo on in-between days to prevent oily hair. <img> Sleep 8-10 hours every night so that you're well-rested. Getting a good night’s sleep gives your body time to repair itself and helps you look and feel your best every day. Establish a sleep schedule so that you go to bed and wake up at about the same time every day. Try to stick to your schedule on the weekends, too!\nWhile adults can get by with 7-9 hours of sleep per night, teenagers between the ages of 14 and 17 need 8-10 hours. <img> Eat a healthy diet that emphasizes nutritious food. A nutritious diet supports glowing skin and healthy hair and nails. Incorporate plenty of fresh fruits and veggies into your diet. Try to avoid processed grains, like white bread, and stick with whole grains. Eat plenty of low-fat protein, like seafood, lean meats, eggs, and legumes. When it comes to dairy, go with fat-free or low-fat options.\nAvoid skipping meals! Try to eat 3 meals per day or 5-6 small meals per day, depending on your preference, caloric needs, and schedule. <img> Aim for at least 60 minutes of exercise per day to stay in shape. Exercising every day will keep you looking and feeling your best. For teen girls, 60 minutes of moderate exercise daily is ideal.

[ "“I’ve had an upset stomach all morning.” Rather than getting into all of the details of your sickness, just be vague about dealing with some stomach issues. Your boss will probably understand what you’re really trying to tell them so you don’t have to mention your symptoms out loud.\nGenerally, it's best to keep it brief when you're calling in sick, so don't feel pressured to elaborate. <img> “I’m recovering from a stomach bug.” Stomach bugs are usually viruses that can cause diarrhea, so referring to one will let your boss know you have digestive issues. Since stomach bugs can be contagious, your boss will want you to stay home so you don’t get anyone else sick. <img> “I’m dealing with food poisoning.” Diarrhea is one of the main ways to determine if you have food poisoning. If you’re also experiencing stomach cramps, nausea, vomiting, or a fever, then they may have been caused by something you ate. Your boss will understand you need time to recover without having to hear all of your individual symptoms. <img> “I’m sick and need to stay close to the bathroom.” Your boss will get that this is code that you’re dealing with some sort of digestive issues. Since they’ll want you working when you’re most efficient instead of running to the bathroom, they’ll let you take the day off. <img> “I’m not feeling well today.” You don’t have to elaborate on any symptoms or how you’re feeling when you’re sick. Your boss should respect your privacy, so a simple call letting them know that you’re ill is all you may need.\nIt might be in your company’s policy that you need to give some details about why you’re missing work. If that’s the case, just mention that you have stomach cramps or digestive issues. If your boss really presses for details, then it’s okay to mention that you have diarrhea to them. <img> “I have diarrhea and can’t come in.” If you’re okay with using the actual word and don’t mind your boss knowing your full symptoms, it’s okay to come right out and say what you’re experiencing. Your boss will immediately understand what you’re dealing with so they don’t ask any more questions.\nYour boss will usually keep your symptoms a secret and just tell your coworkers you’re sick so you don’t get embarrassed. <img> ", "Yes, you can miss work due to diarrhea so you don’t spread infection. Diarrhea can be really uncomfortable and inconvenient, so it’s completely acceptable that you want to stay home. Taking the day off gives you privacy and some time to rest so you can recover fully. Plus, since some diarrhea is caused by contagious viruses, you shouldn’t be around people until your symptoms have completely passed.\nThis is especially true if you work in food service since you could potentially contaminate anything you serve to a customer.\nIf you’re gone for an extended amount of time, your boss may ask for a doctor’s note for proof that you were sick. <img> ", "Fever A fever is one of the first signs that your body is fighting off an infection and that you’re sick. Since you aren’t sure whether your sickness is contagious or not, it’s better to err on the side of caution and call in sick. <img> Migraine When you get a migraine, it can be so hard to focus on the work you need to get done. Instead of trying to force yourself to work through the pain, just take the day off and treat your symptoms. <img> Vomiting Vomiting is usually caused by a stomach virus that could easily spread to your coworkers. Treat the vomiting at home rather than going to work and putting your colleagues at risk. <img> Pink eye If you have eye pain, redness or swelling around your eyes, or a gritty feeling when you blink, you may be dealing with pink eye. Pink eye is extremely contagious, so you should stay home and treat it instead of coming to work. <img> Sinus pain If you have a runny nose and feel pressure around your sinuses, they could be the first signs of a sinus infection. Since it can be hard to focus with sinus pain and because the infection could spread to other people, it’s safer to call in sick and stay home to recover. <img> Persistent coughing & sneezing A minor cold isn’t enough to call in sick, but if you can’t seem to shake the symptoms within a week, it could be a sign you’re dealing with some form of respiratory illness, like the flu. Since you don’t want to get others sick, take off work and avoid close contact with other people until your symptoms go away.\nIf your symptoms are caused by allergies, then take over-the-counter allergy medication instead to relieve your symptoms and return to work. <img> Shortness of breath If you have a hard time catching your breath, it could potentially be a sign of COVID-19 or another respiratory illness. To be on the safe side, call your boss and let them know that you’re having trouble breathing and can’t make it in today. <img> " ]

[ "Go for snacks rich in fat, protein, and fiber. The first thing to do is to determine which foods are appropriate snacking material for the induction phase of the Atkins diet. This phase is all about drastically lowering the amount of carbohydrates you consume, so it goes without saying that you need to identify low-carb snacks. These snacks should be made of fat, protein, and fiber to best help you control your appetite between meals. You can find a large number of snack recipes online.\nUse search terms like “Atkins friendly snacks,” “Atkins diet snack recipes,” or “Low-carb snacks.” <img> Eat cheese-based snacks for a filling, high-protein option. One of the attractions of the Atkins diet is that you don't have to cut out all fatty food, and still get to enjoy things like cheese (with the exception of cottage cheese and ricotta, which are higher in carbs than other cheeses). Cheese can be a good option for a small snack between meals that will limit your hunger and help you stick to the serving sizes for the main meals.\nAn ounce of hard or string cheese is a great snack for the induction phase.\nGrate some mozzarella over 2 slices of tomato with a little basil for a nice snack.\nWrapping some grated cheese in a lettuce leaf is nice alternative to just eating the cheese on its own. <img> Snack on eggs for protein and healthy fats. Eggs are also a good choice for snacks while you are in the induction phase of the Atkins diet. They’re chock full of protein, vitamins, and healthy fats, and help you stay full longer between meals. You can prepare eggs scrambled, hard-boiled, or soft-boiled, or even make yourself a small omelet with non-starchy veggies (such as spinach or broccoli) and cheese.\nTry keeping a few hard-boiled eggs in your refrigerator for an easy snack between meals. <img> Eat vegetable-based snacks to get vitamins, fiber, and fat. Vegetables make good snack choices during the induction phase. Half an avocado is an excellent snack to put into your rotation. Alternatively, try an artichoke drizzled with a little lemon juice. A simple side salad with a boiled egg is also a fine choice for a low-carb snack.\nYou can combine vegetables with cheese to make a delicious snack that is low in carbohydrates but will stop you from getting too hungry. For example, have a cup of sliced cucumber and 2 slices of cheddar cheese.\nYou can also stuff 5 green or black olives with cheese, or have them on their own. <img> Opt for meat and fish-based snacks to get protein. There are lots of meat-based snack options for the induction phase. For example, roll some cooked sliced ham around a few raw or cooked greens to make a delicious ham roll-up. Or, switch the vegetables for cheese to make a cheese and ham version. Get 2 slices of ham and smear a tablespoon of cream cheese on each one. Roll it up for a great phase one snack!\nOne fish option is to switch the ham for 3 ounces (85 g) of sliced smoked salmon. Smear the cheese onto the salmon. Roll the salmon and cheese up in a thin slice of cucumber.\nIf you’re a vegetarian, swap out the meat for tofu. Or, dip some cucumber slices in hummus. <img> ", "Aim to snack in the morning and afternoon. In the induction phase of Atkins, you should eat 1 mid-morning and 1 mid-afternoon snack. You may not feel the need to snack if you have opted to eat 4 or 5 small meals during the day rather than 3 main meals. However, ensure that you don't go more than 4 to 6 hours during waking hours without eating anything.\nIf you don’t feel like eating much, you can have a hot drink or broth as an alternative to a solid snack. <img> Prepare your snacks ahead of time if you’re on the go. Most of the snack options are quick and easy to prepare. For example, it doesn't take long to make a cheese and ham roll-up, or to hollow out an avocado. You may, however, need to prepare these snacks in the morning before you go to work or school. Always try to do this on the same day that you eat them, or the night before, so they are as fresh as possible.\nFor some snack options, such as salads, you can prepare larger amounts and eat them over a couple of days to save time. Pickles (no sugar) are also a quick snack option.\nHaving readily prepared snacks in the fridge, already set aside in the appropriate portions, will help to you control what you eat very closely and keep track of your consumption. <img> Stick to the program, even when you’re snacking. Snacking can often lead to problems with any diet, so it's particularly important that you monitor what you eat closely and stick to the program outlined. Try to vary your snacks so it doesn't become too repetitive and boring. Experiment with different combinations and different ingredients to broaden your horizons.\nThere are some Atkins branded protein bars and shakes that are low in carbohydrates and make good snacks, but always check the label for the net carb content. Some bars are designed as snacks, others as meals.\nDon't become stuck on protein bars and shakes, try to keep as much balance in your diet as possible.\nRemind yourself that the induction phase is short-term, and that you will be adding in more variety in the next phase. <img> Keep up your water intake. It is especially important that you drink enough water in the induction phase of the diet. The Atkins diet has a strong diuretic effect, so you need to make sure you do not become dehydrated. Aim to drink 8 glasses of water a day. Each glass should contain 8 fluid ounces (240 mL) of water.\nIf you don’t like the taste of plain water, add a splash of lemon or lime juice for extra flavor. <img> ", "Plan out your goals. You should see this as the first step on your way to sustainable weight loss and a healthier lifestyle. Seeing the induction phase in your broader plan can motivate you stick with it through these first weeks. Having regular phases and regular goals can help you to maintain your commitment and support you in your long-term weight loss plan.\nHaving attainable, specific, and plausible goals will be the most productive way to map out your progress.\nCouple your Atkins goals with some for specific amounts of regular exercise, such as 30 minutes of running twice a week. <img> Don't obsess too much. Sticking to Atkins throughout the induction phase will require focus and commitment, but you don't want it to dominate your thoughts every waking minute. If you are constantly obsessing about net carbs, it could all become too overwhelming, or even disrupt other aspects of your life. Try to keep it to something you think about at meal times, and forget about it the rest of the time.\nCarrying on your life as normal while you are dieting will help you to stick to it and show that you can make dietary changes that are sustainable and not disruptive.\nThis is hardest in the induction phase when the drop in carbs in most pronounced, so plan some activities with friends or work on hobbies to take your mind off it. <img> Maintain your overall health during the diet. If you don't look after yourself well during the induction phase, you could fall ill and end up coming off the diet prematurely. The most likely causes of feeling unwell are dehydration and an electrolyte imbalance. There are some things you can do to help you avoid these and stay as healthy as possible in the first weeks of Atkins.\nDrinking an 8 fl oz (240 mL) glass of water 8 times a day will keep you well hydrated and negate the effects of a loss in water weight in the induction phase.\nThe loss of water weight can lead to light-headedness and a loss of energy. To ward these off, combine good hydration with consuming sufficient salt.\nBe sure to consume enough protein—typically, this is 3 servings a day of 4–6 ounces (110–170 g)—to maintain lean muscle mass. <img> Measure your progress. One way to help you maintain motivation and stay on track during induction is to keep good records of your progress. Having a graph or chart that shows how far you have come will help push you forward in the following days. Plot out small milestones even in the induction phase to give yourself a trajectory to follow.\nBeing consistent in your net carb intake is key in the induction phase, so devise a plan that takes this into account\nTry for level and steady progress rather than any peaks or troughs. <img> Reward your successes along the way. Once you complete the induction phase, take a moment to feel proud and reward yourself. This doesn't mean pigging out on chips—try to reward yourself with something that isn't food. For instance, you could buy yourself a little present, or go to a movie. Having frequent, smaller rewards as you meet your goals and progress through the Atkins program can be more effective than one big reward at the end.\nSmall rewards will help you stay motivated and feel tangible benefits beyond just your weight loss.\nInstead of a material reward, you could give yourself an afternoon off from work or study to have fun. <img> " ]

[ "Do not place the clothing in the dryer. It is important that you do not put clothing onto which color has transferred into the dryer. Doing so will set the transferred dye into the fabric. This will create a permanent transfer of color between the items, effectively ruining your clothing. <img> Separate the clothing. Once you realize that dye from one piece of clothing has transferred on to your white clothing, separate the colored piece of clothing from the white clothing. This will prevent additional dye from transferring on to your white clothes. <img> Read the clothing labels. Before you attempt to remove dye that has transferred on to your clothing, you will need to carefully read the clothing labels. The labels will tell you whether it is safe to use products like bleach, and what temperatures are safe for washing the fabric. <img> ", "Soak white clothing in bleach or vinegar. Place the whites in a large sink or bathtub. Add 1 cup (235 mL) of white vinegar. If the clothing labels state bleach is okay, you can substitute the vinegar with ¼ cup (60 mL) of non-chlorine bleach. Add one gallon (3.8 liters) of cool water. Soak for 30 minutes.\nYou can also soak your stained clothes in a bucket filled with warm water and 1 c (240 mL) of oxygen bleach. <img> Rinse and launder. After you have soaked the white clothing for 30 minutes, rinse with cool water. Then place the laundry in the washing machine. Add detergent and wash with cool water. Air dry the clothing. <img> Try a color remover. If soaking and washing the white clothing in vinegar or bleach does not remove the dye, you can try a color remover like Rit Color Remover or Carbona Color Remover. Mix the product with water according to package directions, and then soak, rinse, and launder the clothing.\nYou should only use color remover on all-white clothing as this harsh product will strip all dyes from the fabric. <img> ", "Try rewashing with detergent. If dye has transferred from one colored item to another, you may be able to easily remove by simply rewashing the clothing with laundry detergent. Place the items with dye transfer into the washing machine. Add detergent and wash according to clothing label. <img> Soak in color safe bleach. If rewashing the colored fabrics does not remove the transferred dye, you can try soaking the items in color safe bleach. First test an inconspicuous patch of the fabric for colorfastness. Then add color safe bleach to water according to package directions. Soak for at least eight hours, rinse, launder, and air dry.\nOxygen bleach is safer than chlorine bleach and won't damage your garments.How to Make Homemade Color Safe BleachHydrogen peroxide: Add 1 c (240 mL) of hydrogen peroxide to a clean half-gallon jug.Add water: Fill up the rest of the jug with water.Mix in essential oils to scent: If you’d like your color-safe bleach to smell good, mix in your favorite essential oil, like lavender or peppermint. <img> Try a color catcher. A color catcher is a piece of fabric that has been specially formulated to catch bleeding dye in the washing machine. Place the color catcher in the washing machine and then wash the clothes according to the instructions on the package.\nYou can buy color catchers at your local grocery store or online. <img> ", "Read your clothing labels. One of the easiest ways to prevent coloring from one piece of clothing transferring to another is by reading the labels on your clothing. Many items, like dark denim, will include tags that state the dye might transfer. These tags will also instruct you to wash the items separately.\nChoosing Clothes that Won’t Bleed ColorAvoid: Labels that say “Color Rubs Off,” “Do Not Use Detergent,” “Wash Before Wear,” “Turn Inside Out to Launder,” “Use Cold Water,” or “Color May Wash Down.” This tells you that the dyes used in the clothing item are unstable and will likely bleed in the wash.Choose: Clothes made from synthetic fibers, like nylon or polyester. These fibers tend to retain color better than natural materials, like wool or cotton. <img> Sort your clothing. You can prevent color transfer between clothing items by sorting and washing the items accordingly. For example, you should sort white clothing, dark or black clothing, and brightly colored clothing into separate piles. You should then wash each pile of laundry separately to prevent color transfer. <img> Wash problematic items separately. There are certain items of clothing that can be particularly problematic and result in the unwanted transfer of color. You should wash these items by themselves and according to the directions on the clothing label. For example, it is a good idea to wash a new pair of dark denim jeans or a red cotton shirt by themselves. <img> Don’t allow wet clothes to sit. Forgetting to remove your wet clothes from the washing machine can result in dye transferring from one item to another. To prevent this from happening, always remove your clothes when the washing machine’s cycle ends. Do not allow them to sit unattended in a laundry basket while wet.\nTips to Help You Remember Your LaundrySet a timer: As soon as you throw in a load, set a timer on your phone or kitchen timer that will go off when your laundry is finished.Install a sensor: There are several smart home laundry sensors on the market that you can purchase. These gadgets are configured to send users a notification to their smartphones when their laundry is ready. <img> " ]

[ "Follow the instructions provided by your vet. When you pick your cat up from the veterinarian following a surgery and anesthesia, you will likely be given a list of care instructions. Make sure to carefully read and follow the instructions. For example, your vet may provide you with information regarding administering pain medication, or how to feed your cat while it is recovering from the anesthesia. <img> Place your cat in an enclosed area. When you arrive home with your cat after a surgery or procedure that required anesthesia, your cat may be groggy. Place your cat in a confined room, such as a bedroom or bathroom.\nChoose a room that is quiet and free of other pets or young children. Avoid letting other pets interact with your cat before it recovers fully. This helps keep both your cat and your other pets calm and safe while your cat is still influenced by the anesthesia.\nAlternatively, you could confine your cat to a large crate while recovering. <img> Remove elevated objects. Choose a room that does not have any elevated objects. Your cat may be tired and groggy and could fall off of a countertop or elevated piece of furniture. Jumping may also irritate any stitches or incision sites and should be avoided.\nYou may also want to carry your cat up and down the stairs for the first 24 hours until they start to regain their energy levels. <img> Keep your cat comfortable. Your cat will need to spend quite a bit of time sleeping and resting while recovering from anesthesia. As a result, you want to create a comfortable place for the cat to sleep. Place their favourite bed and a few blankets in the enclosed area with the cat.\nMake sure the bedding is placed on the floor so that the cat is not tempted to jump onto a bed or other piece of furniture. <img> Limit food and water intake. Provide food and water in small amounts following anesthesia. Your cat may have a mild reaction to the anesthesia, resulting in vomiting. Only give your cat a small amount of food, about half of what they normally eat. If the cat does not vomit, then you can return your cat to its regular eating schedule.\nFollow all feeding instructions provided by your vet. <img> Provide your cat with easy access to the litter box. Make sure that your cat can easily access their litter box. Place it in the confined room with the cat so that they do not need to travel far to go to the washroom. Do not keep the litter box on a different floor from the cat. You want to minimize the amount of stairs they are climbing while recovering from anesthesia. <img> Avoid rough play for a few days. For the first 24 to 48 hours after surgery your cat should not engage in any rough play. If you have other pets, keep them separated for a few days, to give your cat adequate time to recover. Rough play could result in tearing stitches or irritating the incision site.\nIf your vet recommends exercise restrictions while your cat recovers, make sure you follow them exactly. If you are unsure if your cat needs exercise restrictions, contact your vet for clarification. <img> ", "Check on your cat frequently. Although it is important to keep your cat in a quiet, traffic-free area while they recover from an anesthesia, you should still check on them frequently. For example, you should enter the room with your cat every few hours to make sure that it is breathing normally and not experiencing too much discomfort. <img> Monitor your cat's breathing. In some cases a cat may have a negative reaction to the anesthesia, causing them to experience respiratory distress. This includes laboured breathing. If your cat shows signs of laboured breathing, contact your vet immediately. <img> Keep an eye on the incision site. Usually when cats receive anesthesia, it is accompanied by surgery and/or stitches. As a result, it is important to watch the incision site for any complications. Watch for redness, swelling, or any discharge from the incision, or for your cat biting or scratching around the area.\nCall your vet immediately if you notice any signs of irritation around the incision site.\nYou can also help avoid complications such as biting by using an Elizabethan collar, sometimes called a cone collar, available from your vet or pet supply stores. Be sure to properly fit the collar so that your cat cannot get around it. <img> Call the veterinarian if any complications arise. If you are at all concerned with your cat's recovery from the anesthesia, then you should call your veterinarian. For example, if your cat's energy levels do not begin to rise within a few days, this could be a sign of an underlying issue. It is always best to be on the safe side. <img> " ]

[ "Position the machine 1 to 2 feet (0.30 to 0.61 m) from the wall and furniture. The machine needs to pull in oxygen and release exhaust, so it needs plenty of space. Make sure the area around it is unobstructed.\nIn addition to needing space for air circulation, the oxygen concentrator will become very hot, potentially causing a fire risk if it’s near items like furniture or curtains. <img> Connect your humidification bottle if one is prescribed. Fit the threaded cap on your humidification bottle into the outlet on your oxygen concentrator. Slowly twist your bottle until it’s securely attached to the machine.\nThe location of your outlet will vary depending on your model, so you'll need to check the manual that came with your machine. In many cases, the outlet is on the side of the machine near the dials.\nAlways use distilled or filtered water in your humidification bottle. Unscrew the cap on the top of the bottle, then fill it with water. Screw the cap back on before attaching the bottle to your oxygen concentrator. Change your water every time you use the machine.\nYou will likely be prescribed a humidification bottle if your doctor prescribes you an oxygen flow rate greater than 2-3 liters per minute (LPM). <img> Attach your oxygen tubing to either the humidification bottle or an adapter. If you’re using a humidification bottle, you will see a port on the bottle. This is where you insert your oxygen tubing. If you don’t use a humidification bottle, you will use an oxygen adaptor, also called a Christmas tree adaptor, to attach your tubes. It looks similar to a tiny funnel, with one large end and one pointy end.\nThe oxygen adaptor fits into the outlet on your machine that you would typically use for a humidification bottle. You just need to fit the larger side of the adaptor into the outlet. In most cases, you will simply push the adaptor into the outlet. If you're having trouble, check the manual that came with your machine. <img> Make sure your air filter is in place. Your oxygen concentrator has an air inlet filter that removes particles and allergens from the air. It should be located on the side of your machine. On occasion, you might remove or change the filter, so always double check to make sure it’s there before you turn on your machine.\nYou should remove the filter from the back or side of your oxygen concentrator once a week. Wash it in warm water, then squeeze out the excess water. Pat it down with a clean towel before returning it to your machine. <img> ", "Start your oxygen concentrator at least 15-20 minutes before using it. It takes time for your oxygen concentrator to begin cycling the correct concentration of air. That means you’ll need to have it on for awhile before you begin breathing in the air the machine produces. Plan accordingly.\nTo determine exactly how much time your machine needs to be on before the oxygen concentration is correct, follow the instructions on your model or the directions provided by your doctor. <img> Plug it into a grounded outlet that’s not in use. Your oxygen concentrator should be the only item plugged into that outlet, as it will draw a lot of power. If your outlet is not grounded, it’s safe to use an adaptor.\nA grounded outlet will have 3 prongs instead of 2. Some older outlets only have holes for the typical side-by-side prongs on an electrical cord, but your oxygen concentrator will have a third round prong on the plug.\nDo not use an extension cord, as this causes a fire risk. <img> Switch the power button to the “on” position. The switch should be labeled as “on/off,” but it might also be labeled as “start.” Lights will come on and you'll be able to hear the noise of air being pulled in and released.\nMake sure the machine is in the \"off\" position before you plug it up. It could get damaged if it's already switched \"on.\" <img> Listen for the alarm. Your oxygen concentrator should sound an alarm when it’s turned on. This is to make sure it’s not accidentally turned on when it’s not supposed to be. After a few seconds, the alarm will become silent.\nThe alarm will sound every time the oxygen concentrator is turned on.\nYou will also hear an alarm if the power flow is interrupted. <img> ", "Locate the liter control knob or switch on your oxygen concentrator. What your knob looks like can vary, but it should be the main knob or switch on your machine. It may be marked for liters per minute (LPM) or levels, such as 1, 2, 3, etc.\nThe knob or switch will likely have numbers next to it, though the exact markings will depend on your model.\nCheck your machine’s manual to make sure you’re using the right knob or switch. <img> Turn the knob or switch until it points to your prescribed number. Your doctor will prescribe the appropriate amount of oxygen for you. If you aren’t sure about which setting to use, call your doctor for clarification.\nIt’s very important that you use the right amount of oxygen, so don’t just guess. Either check your written prescription or call the doctor. <img> Avoid using more or less oxygen than your doctor has prescribed. Using the wrong oxygen setting can be harmful. Follow all of your doctor’s instructions!\nIf you think you’re not getting the right amount of oxygen, talk to your doctor about it. Don’t adjust your oxygen on your own. <img> ", "Check your tubing for kinks or bends. These can interrupt the flow of oxygen, so smooth them out if you find any. It’s okay for your tubes to coil a bit, such as in a big circle, as long as the air can flow freely.\nIf there is a kink, you might not get all of the oxygen you need. You may need to replace your tubing if it won't straighten out. <img> Put your mask over your face for low levels of oxygen. Make sure there are no gaps around the edges of the mask. Place the elastic attachment on the mask over your head or around your ears, depending on the style of your mask.\nShift the mask around until it feels comfortable.\nAdjust the mask if it shifts or becomes loose. <img> Fit your nasal cannula upward into your nostrils for high levels of oxygen. Each prong of the cannula should curve up into one nostril. Once the prongs are in place, loop the tubes over your ears. Adjust the tubes under your chin by sliding the tube adjustor up or down.\nPut your nasal cannula in water to check if they're working. Watch for bubbles caused by the air flowing through the tubes.\nAdjust the tubes until they’re comfortable once you put the nasal cannula in. <img> Breathe through your mask or nasal cannula. Take breaths as you normally would, allowing the machine to supplement your oxygen. Use the machine for as long as your doctor recommends. <img> Switch the power to \"off\" when the machine isn't in use. Press the same button you used to turn it on. The machine can become overheated while it's on, causing a risk of fire. It's important to not leave it running when it's not in use. <img> " ]

You might want to include a rack to place shoes on, or even just a small mat or rug where you place the shoes.\nWhen people enter, they'll see the \"shoe area\" with you and your family's shoes, they'll see you (and other household members) without shoes on, and hopefully they'll put two and two together. <img> Leave your own shoes in the shoe area. To make sure that the function of the space is understood, leave some of your own shoes in the shoe space so that your guests will see this and know what to do. Put several pairs of shoes in the shoe area.\nIf you create a shoe space without any shoes to occupy it, your guests may not realize that you want them to put their shoes there. <img> Put a sign up. To be absolutely certain that your guests understand the function of the shoe space, make a cute sign to hang above it. This will help eliminate any possible confusion.\nYou can include a cute phrase on the sign like, “Leave your worries (and your shoes) at the door.” <img> Create a mudroom. A mudroom is a space in a house (usually near the most used entrance/exit) that holds all the gear people wear outside — like coats, scarves, boots, shoes, etc. If you have a clearly designated room/area for these items, it is easy for guests to utilize the space.\nIf your guests have to go through or pass by the mudroom on their way into your home, it will be quite easy to encourage them to use it. <img> ", "Link the request with the invite into your house. Try saying, \"Do come in — you can put your shoes on the rack.\" That way the request is linked neatly with the invitation to enter. In fact, it would be very awkward at this point for your guest to do anything other than remove her outer footwear. <img> Ask directly. If your guests remain oblivious to any visual clues you may have provided, you should ask them directly. Be firm, but polite with your request. Most people will respond positively because they won't want to offend.\nIf you feel it is necessary, give a good reason for asking them such as having had new carpets or having just had them cleaned, the weather being particularly foul, or you can say that your driveway is gritty and you're trying to minimize how much of it gets brought in on shoes.\nTry saying something like:\n“I'd appreciate it if you took your shoes off when you come in. We've just had the carpets cleaned.”\n“Please take your shoes off when you come in the house. We like to avoid tracking in toxins and bacteria whenever possible.”\n\nRemember that it is your house, so you have every right to ask your guests to remove their shoes. <img> Inform your guests on the invite. If possible, it is best to let people know in advance that you would like them to remove their shoes. This will keep your guests from being caught off guard in a situation that may make them uncomfortable. It will also give them time to consider bringing their own slippers or wearing socks if they might have otherwise not worn socks.\nYou could say, \"Oh, by the way we don't wear shoes in our house. You may want to bring some slippers or socks.\" <img> Be firm and polite if they want to refuse. Some people may not want to take their shoes off no matter what you say. At this point, you should consider how important your “no shoes” house rules are and decide if you want to cause a fuss about it.\nIf there is a cultural or religious reason for not wearing shoes in the house, be open and let your guests know how important it is. For example, “I'm very sorry this caught you off-guard, but where I'm from taking your shoes off before entering is a sign of respect. It would mean a great deal to me and my family if you could do us the honor of entering our home without your shoes.”\nRemember that you are well within your rights to ask your guests to remove their shoes, but if this makes your guests uncomfortable, they may choose to leave. That is a risk you must be willing to take. <img> ", "Provide socks or slippers for guests. If you want your guests to take off their shoes, it might be a nice gesture to provide them with an alternative that is acceptable to both parties. Having some nice slippers or comfy socks available for your guests can help eliminate your guests' feelings of discomfort or desire to push back against your request.\nHowever, you will probably find that most guests will prefer to be in socks or bare feet than wear borrowed slippers.\nYou can also try buying some disposable shoe covers (like the kind doctors wear over their shoes) for your guest to wear over his bare feet. This way, she won't feel strange borrowing someone else's socks or slippers and you can throw away the used covers after she leaves. <img> Provide scented foot spray. It may be helpful for you to provide some scented foot spray near the area where you want your guests to remove their shoes. This will give your guests an alternative option if they are embarrassed about the possibility of having foot odor. <img> Be aware of alternative customs. In Japan, it is unheard of to walk into someone's house in your shoes, which are always left outside, and pretty slippers are always available. These can be bought quite cheaply in many local stores.\nThis cultural difference is why it's a good idea to provide socks or slippers for your guests. <img> " ]

If your license is from any other state, then you will have to go through the full licensing process. If you have a Florida license and you wish to obtain a Georgia license, then you will need to: \nMake sure your Florida license is in good standing. It cannot be expired.\nPass the exam for the type of license you want to obtain in Georgia.\nMeet all of the prelicensing and educational requirements that were required to obtain your license in Florida.\nSubmit a Georgia Crime Information Report (GCIC) along with your application. <img> Make sure you meet the basic requirements for licensure. To apply for a real estate license in Georgia, you must be at least 18 years of age, have a high school diploma or GED, be able to successfully pass a background check, and be able to prove that you are a lawful resident of the United States.\nDocuments that can be used to verify \"lawful presence\" include a driver's license, a U.S. passport, a US military ID, a US Permanent Resident Card or Alien Registration Receipt Card, a U.S. Certificate of Citizenship, or a U.S. Certificate of Naturalization. <img> Learn about the educational requirements for taking the real estate exam in Georgia. Georgia offers three different educational options for prospective real estate salespersons:\nSuccessfully complete a 75-hour Salesperson Prelicense Course.\nSuccessfully complete 10 quarter hours or 6 semester hours of coursework in real estate or real property, agency, or contract law from U.S. or Canadian accredited college, university, or law school. Official transcripts must be provided to the testing agency AMP for approval.\nProvide proof of completion of at least 75 hours of prelicense coursework in another U.S. state or Canadian province. Proof must be submitted that this coursework was approved by the real estate regulatory agency of that state or province. <img> Register for a pre-license education class. Most prospective Realtors in Georgia opt to complete the 75-hour Salesperson Prelicense course from an approved school before taking the exam. These courses are offered both online and in classrooms. Classroom courses are offered on a variety of schedules. The Georgia Real Estate Commission (GREC) maintains a list of approved schools on its website. \nThe course you need to obtain an entry-level real estate license is called the Real Estate Salesperson Pre License course.\nDifferent learners have different needs; be sure to choose a course option (online vs. classroom) that works best for your schedule and learning style.\nNot all real estate schools offer the same level of service. When choosing a class, don't look only at the cost; also consider the services (live help, tech support, practice tests) that the school provides before making your choice.\nKeep in mind that some classes are all text and others use animation in their presentations. Consider what you would prefer before signing up. <img> Obtain a Georgia Crime Information Center (CGIC) Report. Within 60 days of taking your exam, you must obtain a certified criminal history (CGIC) report, which includes information about any criminal history you may have, including arrests, judgments, sentences, and so forth. CGIC reports can be obtained at most sheriff's offices and police stations in Georgia.\nIf you have prior criminal convictions or disciplinary actions from any licensing or regulatory agency, you will need to complete and submit a Background Clearance Application and supporting documentation that verifies each incident, along with a detailed written explanation of the circumstances surrounding the event, any restitution you may still owe, etc. <img> Attend and pass your class. Be sure to pay attention, take notes, and read your textbook carefully. You must receive at least a passing score on the school's final exam to receive a completion certificate. Different schools have different score and retake requirements, so be sure you are well-prepared for the test before you begin. <img> Study for the State Real Estate Exam. If you are diligent and pay attention, your Prelicense course should sufficiently prepare you to take the exam; however, many people require additional study help to pass.

[ "Choose oysters with desirable traits like strong shells or plentiful meat. As with any other animal or organism, you want to choose only the best of the best when looking for the oysters that will produce your oyster spawn. Select a few oysters to farm that will act as the parents for your upcoming crop of shellfish.\nFactors like the depth of the shell, the speed at which they grow, and the amount of meat they contain are all significant factors when choosing a good quality parent oyster.\nAs oysters are sequential hermaphrodites, they switch back and forth between being male and female over the course of their lives. As long as you have a good number of oysters to parent your new crop, you will likely have an assortment of males and females. <img> Let the oysters ripen and produce gametes in a breeding tank. Once you've selected a good range of oysters, you need to prepare them for breeding. Set up a large breeding tank, around 120,000 litres (32,000 US gal), and fill it ocean water that has been warmed. Put the oysters into the tank and leave them for 2 months to begin putting on a gonad, which will produce the gametes needed to breed your oysters.\nGametes are the cells, either sperm or eggs, that the oysters will produce and release in order to create new oyster spawn that you can feed and grow.\nBigger oysters will produce more gametes than smaller oysters, so having larger oysters in your tank will result in a larger crop of oysters.\nThe oysters will still need to be continually fed as they grow a gonad, which is why warmed ocean water has to be used. This will contain the phytoplankton that the oysters will feed off of. You'll need a constant supply of warm ocean water for 2 months to keep the oysters alive while they prepare to spawn.\nThe breeding tank will usually be a massive plastic tank capable of holding the 120,000 litres (32,000 US gal) of water, which can continually cycle new water in. This is a piece of specialty equipment needed to breed oysters, so it would have to be custom-ordered. <img> Transfer the oysters to spawning trays to release the gametes. After 2 months of warm water, the oysters will be ready to breed. Shift the oysters into a spawning tray, or a shallow trough, filled with water that is around room temperature. Within a day or so, you should see oysters releasing gametes into the water, where the sperm will fertilize the eggs.\nThe spawning tanks will need water that is between 20 to 30 °C (68 to 86 °F) and with a salinity of 10ppt to trigger the oysters to release gametes.\nMuch like the breeding tank, the spawning tank will need to be continually provided with food from the ocean to keep the oysters alive. Spawning tanks are normally long and shallow troughs with pipes that allow new water to be heated and cycled in as needed. <img> Feed and protect the fertilized eggs to help them grow. It will take roughly 2 weeks for the larvae to grow to the point where they will begin developing a shell. Pour the water from the spawning tanks into much larger tanks so they have room to grow, and begin feeding them with filtered seawater. They will slowly develop from being near invisible fertilized eggs into larvae the size of a piece of dust.\nThis is the equivalent of the gestation period in other animals. The oyster larvae must be taken care of, fed well, and kept away from predators during this time.\nThe oysters feed on phytoplankton naturally found in ocean water, so you will need to be constantly cycling ocean water into the tanks as the oysters grow. These tanks will need to be the same size as the breeding tanks, around 120,000 litres (32,000 US gal). <img> Place the grown larvae into a setting tank. Oyster larvae will reach a point where they need a tiny amount of calcium carbonate to begin forming their shells. Transfer the larvae from the large tanks into wider setting tanks and a source of calcium carbonate. Over the course of 4 to 5 weeks, each oyster will attach to some calcium carbonate and continue growing.\nThe most common source of calcium carbonate is old oyster shells which have been finely ground into a sand. In the wild, oyster larvae will attach to old oyster shells and grow from there, leading to large clumps of oysters growing in the same place.\nThe setting tanks are a much wider, longer, and deeper version of the spawning tanks. They'll need to be provided with food from ocean water that the oysters need to grow their shells.\nAs the oysters are still tiny at this point, the ocean water will need to be filtered so that only phytoplankton can get in, and anything that may harm the oysters will be kept out.\nOver this period, the oysters will go from looking like a grain of dust to being around the size of a flake of ground pepper. <img> Grow the oysters in an upweller for around 2 to 3 days. An upweller is another tank designed for growing oysters that will constantly pump nutrients and water through to the oysters. Once the oysters have grown their shell, move them into an upweller to keep growing. Over the course of a day or so, they will double in size. When they grow to be around 0.64 centimetres (0.25 in) in size, they’re ready to be cultured.\nOysters that are ready to be grown and cultivated will be around the size of a fingernail on your pinky finger. All oysters will grow at different rates, so you should remove them to be cultured when they are the right size, rather than after a set period of time. <img> ", "Bottom-culture your oysters for stronger shells and a free-range look. Bottom-culturing your oysters is a process wherein the oysters are left to grow on the seafloor by themselves. This will result in a stronger shell, but also gives you less control over the oysters. It is most similar to the way oysters would grow in the wild.\nBottom-culturing doesn’t require a lot of special equipment to grow oysters, but also means that you don’t have anything to protect the oysters. As such, you’re likely to lose a lot of oysters to the elements, the ocean, or predators. <img> Let your oysters grow in a mesh bag in the ocean for around 4 months. Before they can be scattered over the ocean floor to grow by themselves, the oysters will need to be a little bigger. Put them in a mesh bag or cage that will stop predators from getting to them. Submerge the oysters in the ocean for 4 months or so, or until they are between 3.8–5.1 centimetres (1.5–2.0 in) long.\nThe goal with this portion of culturing your oysters is to get them as big as possible before putting them into the ocean. This will stop them from being eaten as easily and make them more likely to last through winter. <img> Scatter your oyster seeds over the bottom of a muddy bay to continue growing. Collect all of your oysters from the mesh bags or cages and bring them to a muddy bay or beach where they can grow. Begin scattering the oysters across the seafloor, trying to spread them evenly within an area that you can easily keep track of.\nBoth sandy and rocky beaches will work, but mud will work best for culturing oysters. The oysters won’t stick to it the way they may to rocks, and it will be heavy enough that it won’t cover the oysters the way that sand will. <img> Wait 1 1/2 to 3 years for your oysters to grow to their full size. On average, oysters will grow roughly 2.5 centimetres (0.98 in) every year. In order to get the oysters between 6.4–7.6 centimetres (2.5–3.0 in) that you may be familiar with, you’ll need to leave your oysters for around 2 years to let them grow.\nSome states and countries will have limitations on how long you need to leave oysters to grow before you are able to harvest them. Make sure you check your local laws to see if there are any restrictions you need to abide by.\nThe upside of bottom-culturing is that there is very little that you need to do over this growing period. You should be able to leave the oysters mostly unattended while waiting for them to grow. <img> Pick oysters off the seafloor to harvest them. After your oysters have had plenty of time to grow, you can easily harvest them by simply picking them up off the seafloor. Use a basket with holes in it to pick up the oysters, keeping them submerged until you are able to put them on ice to store them.\nProfessional oyster growers will use long metal rakes designed specifically for lifting oysters from the seafloor to collect them. This will make harvesting easier but isn’t necessary.\nWhen sorting through your oysters, if you find any that aren’t big enough, you can return them to the ocean to let them continue growing. For best results, put them in a mesh bag and put them back in the ocean, checking on them every month or so. <img> ", "Use off-bottom culturing to have more control over your oysters. Off-bottom culturing is a method of growing oysters where they are kept off of the seabed as they grow. There are many types of off-bottom culturing, including cage culturing, rack-and-bag culturing and floating culturing, but all revolve around growing oysters in bags or cages floating in the water. Here are a few advantages and disadvantages to off-bottom culturing:\nOff-bottom culturing requires more equipment than bottom culturing, as you will need cages, bags, racks, and buoys to grow the oysters. This makes the start-up cost of off-bottom culturing much more expensive than bottom-culturing.\nOff-bottom culturing requires the oysters to be “tumbled” as they grow. Tumbling is a process wherein the cages or bags are shaken around regularly to strengthen the shell, mimicking the natural tumbling that happens to bottom-cultured oysters. This makes off-bottom culturing more care intensive, but also results in better-looking oysters.\nAs the oysters are kept off of the seafloor and protected by cages, it’s far less likely that any will be lost as they grow. <img> Transfer your oyster seeds to a mesh oyster grow-out bag. This is a large bag made of a robust mesh where the oysters will be given a chance to grow naturally. Each bag should be able to hold around 1,500 oysters. Attach the bag to something that will keep it in place on top of the water, or place it in a cage where it can float in the ocean to let the oysters grow.\nThe first bag you use will need to have very small holes in the mesh to prevent the smaller oysters from falling out. Start with a 4 mm (0.16 in) mesh bag for oysters just coming out of the hatchery.\nOne way to keep the bags in place and floating in the ocean is by attaching them to a long wire strung between poles in the ocean. The wire should sit at around sea-level so that the oysters still get the effects of the waves when clipped onto it. This is rack-and-bag culturing.\nYou can also put the bags in larger cages that will sit on stilts in the ocean, keeping the oysters around sea-level as they grow. <img> Tumble your oysters every 5 to 10 days to strengthen their shells. In order to keep the shells of your oysters thick and round as they grow, you should tumble them every few days, especially when they are still young. With the grow-out bag still sealed, shake the oysters around vigorously for a few seconds before returning them to the water to grow.\nThis isn’t an essential part of off-bottom culturing but it will result in much better oysters once they are fully grown. <img> Move the oysters to bags with a larger mesh as they grow. Around 3 to 6 months after the oysters are taken from the hatchery and put into their first grow-out bag, some of them will need to be moved into a bigger bag. Check each grow-out bag you have every 3 to 6 months, and move the bigger oysters into a different bag with a larger mesh. This will give them more room to grow and help keep track of oyster sizes over time.\nThe mesh sizes of different bags will change between different manufacturers, but a should shift from bags that are roughly 4 mm (0.16 in), to 9 mm (0.35 in), to 18 mm (0.71 in), to a 23 mm (0.91 in) bag over the course of around 2 years.\nWhile you’ll be able to fit around 1,500 oysters straight from a hatchery in one bag, less and less will fit in each bag as they grow. By the time you reach a 23 mm (0.91 in) bag, you may only be able to keep 100 to 200 in each. <img> Give the oysters between 1 1/2 to 3 years to grow. Full-sized oysters that are ready to be harvested are usually around 6.4–7.6 centimetres (2.5–3.0 in) in length. Depending on the conditions in which you are growing your oysters, it can take between 1 1/2 to 3 years for the oysters to reach their optimum size. Have patience and check on your oysters frequently to watch them grow. <img> Pull in the grow-out bags to begin harvesting your oysters. After 2 to 3 years, you can simply pull in the bags to begin harvesting your oysters. Empty one bag at a time out onto a large surface where you can begin sorting through them. Any oysters that are big enough can be kept on ice to be eaten, with any smaller oysters tossed back into the bag to keep growing.\nOff-bottom cultured oysters are much easier to harvest than bottom cultured oysters, as you don’t need to search the seabed to find oysters of the right size. It takes more work but is also more organized. <img> " ]

[ "Choose a sentence to write in Oppish. This will be an easier way to begin than speaking, because you can take your time. Try a sentence with simple words that you would use in everyday life. Write down the sentence in regular English.\nMake sure some of the words have more than one syllable. This will give you practice with different kinds of words. <img> Add the syllable “opp” after each consonant or pair of consonants. Do not add an “opp” to the end of the word, however. Try writing each word in Oppish underneath the English version of that word. For example, under the word, “cat” you would write, “C-opp-at”. Under the word “hello.” you would write, “h-opp ell-opp o.”\nSome Oppish speakers insist on an “opp” after every single consonant, so the word, “flip” would be spelled, “f-opp l-opp i -p-opp.”\nFor short words, particularly the words \"I\", \"a\" and \"an\" insert an \"opp\" before the word. So \"I\" becomes \"opp-I\". \"An\" becomes \"opp-an\" and \"a\" becomes \"opp-a.\"\nWrite out Oppish in a way that you will remember and understand. After all, it’s a secret language for you. <img> Practice with more complex words and sentences. Try some more difficult words, such as, “computer” (c-opp omp-opp ut-opp er) or “yesterday” (y-opp est-opp er-opp d-opp ay). See if you can write down a sentence only in Oppish without having to write the English version out first. You can also practice translating paragraphs from articles or books into Oppish. <img> ", "Choose one of the simple sentences you’ve written in Oppish. Practice reading it out loud. You may need to practice each word several times until it rolls off your tongue easily. Continue to practice one sentence until you can say it as though you were speaking English.\nIf the way you’ve written the Oppish words is difficult for you to understand, you can re-write them in a way that is easier to read. <img> Choose more sentences to read aloud. Try reading an entire paragraph out loud in Oppish. If you stumble over certain words, just keep practicing. Oppish is considered the most complex of the invented languages, so it may take some time to master. <img> Speak a word out loud without writing it down. This step can be a difficult one. Choose a new word that you haven’t written down. Practice saying it aloud in Oppish. It may take a few tries to figure out the translation.\nStart with a simple word with one syllable. You can use something simple like “house” or, “h-opp ouse” <img> Continue practicing with new words and sentences. Think of a short sentence that you’d like to translate. Say it out loud to yourself, then try to translate it into Oppish. For example, you could say “I feel hungry,” and then translate it to “I f-opp eel h-opp ungr-opp y.”\nTry to practice until you can say a sentence fluently, as though Oppish came naturally to you. <img> ", "Find another Oppish speaker. For some people, this may be the most difficult part of having a conversation! However, if you’ve decided to learn Oppish, chances are that you already know at least one other Oppish speaker. Ask them if they’d be willing to help you practice.\nSome people use Oppish as a secret language because they don’t want to be overheard by others. These people may not want to help someone else learn their secret code. <img> Start with basic conversation. As with any language, you need to build up slowly. You can begin with simple greetings and conversations such as, “H-opp ell-opp o. H-opp ow ar-opp e y-opp ou t-opp od-opp ay?”\nIf your partner starts off speaking very quickly or using complex words, you can ask them to slow down.

Once you’re able to easily understand your conversation partner, you can build your skills with more complex words and sentences. You may still have a hard time speaking Oppish fluently, but keep practicing.\nIf you know multiple people who speak Oppish, try talking with more than one person. People will speak slightly differently, so it’s good to practice with multiple partners.\nYou may be able to find videos online of people speaking Oppish. You can watch these videos to practice understanding others. <img> " ]

[ "Pay attention to the shape of your dog’s back. If your dog is experiencing low-grade hip pain, subtle signs like your dog’s posture and the shape of their back may be one way to detect hip dysplasia.\nIf your dog suffers from hip dysplasia, they may have a sloping back when they stand. Their back may be arched and their pelvis may be tucked underneath them, giving the impression of a back sloping down to the pelvis, rather than a flat, level back.\nMany pups who inherit hip dysplasia from their parents will show signs of the condition at less than 12 months old, so if your dog develops a sloping back at a young age, this may be a warning sign. <img> Look at how your dog walks. If your dog is taking short, mincing steps with their back legs, rather than long, easy strides, this may indicate he is experiencing pain or discomfort in his hips. One of the consequences of hip dysplasia is premature arthritis, so younger dogs with this condition may experience issues usually associated with older dogs, such as inflammation, pain, and bone remodeling.\nYour dog may also develop a habit of transferring weight onto his front legs to relieve any pain in his back legs and leaning forward, so the muscles of his forequarters will be more developed than the muscles of his rear end. <img> Check if your dog is hopping rather than walking. Some dogs with two sore hips will “bunny hop” instead of walk. Rather than move each leg independently and stepping with alternating legs, your dog may move his two back legs as one unit and “hop” forward. <img> Notice if your dog doesn’t want to hop into the car or climb up the stairs. Dogs with hip issues may be reluctant or unable to perform activities that require propulsive power from their back legs like climbing stairs, jumping into a car, or leaping over objects. <img> Take your dog to the vet if your dog displays lameness. Because the signs of hip dysplasia in young dogs are not very obvious, it can be difficult for you as the owner to realize something isn’t right until the dog goes completely lame. When your dog displays lameness, this may appear to be short term injury but in fact may be a more serious issue like hip dysplasia. To be certain, take your dog to the vet to get tested. <img> ", "Determine if your dog has a history of lameness or hip issues. Older dogs may have been lame at a young age and then recovered, only to have other hip problems develop later in life. If your dog has a history of hip issues, they may have hip dysplasia but missed being diagnosed or were misdiagnosed. <img> Check if your dog appears stiff or in pain after lots of exercise. Older dogs with hip dysplasia may be stiff or have discomfort after lots of running around and playing.\nThey may also have hind leg lameness that clears up after they rest, only for it to reoccur once they start using their muscles and exerting themselves. <img> Take your dog to the vet if your dog displays lameness. While older dogs have many other possible health issues, properly diagnosing hip dysplasia in an older dog will ensure they live a less painful and much longer life. <img> ", "Allow your vet to watch your dog walk and run. Your vet will stand directly behind your dog as he walks and runs. She is looking at the degree of his pelvic roll and if one hip joint bobs up and down more than the other. She will also look at your dog run and walk from the side to look a the length of his stride, whether the hind leg stride matches the front stride, and if both back legs strike out at the same distance or if one leg takes smaller steps. <img> Allow your vet to analyze your dog’s muscle development. Your vet will be checking if your dog’s thigh muscles are well-developed or if they are weak and it is easy to feel the bones beneath the skin.\nIf a young dog has weak muscle development, this means he is not exercising as much as he should because he is likely uncomfortable or in pain. <img> Let your vet examine your dog’s back leg joints. Your vet will also look at each joint in your dog’s back legs to ensure the pain is localized to your dog’s hip joints. Just because a dog has hind leg lameness, this doesn’t mean the problem lies in his hips, as a sprained toe, a sore ankle, or a damaged ligament may be the source of the issue.\nOnce your vet is assured the other joints are sound and there is no heat or swelling on other joints, she can focus her exam on your dog’s hips. <img> Allow your vet to look at the range of motion of your dog’s hips. Your vet will extend your dog’s leg backward to test how sensitive his hip joint is. If your dog pulls against this movement, he clearly has a sore hip, as he will want to keep it as still as possible and not move it to avoid pain.\nA dog with supple, healthy hips will allow the leg to be moved with almost balletic flexibility, while a dog with a dysplastic hip will move stiffly. The range of motion of a normal hip is in all directions, so a dog with hip dysplasia will have limited to no range of motion.\nIn severely dysplastic hips, there be the sound or impression of bone clunking against bone, as the vet manipulates the hip joints. This occurs because the joint space is uneven, allowing the bone to literally rub against another bone. <img> Get an x-ray of your dog done while he is under a general anesthetic. As your dog’s hips will be too sore to tolerate the legs being held in position to get the correct view for an x-ray, a general anesthetic will be used to get an ideal position of his hips.\nThe vet will check for landmarks on the radiograph like the angle of the femoral neck, making sure the femoral head (ball joint) joins onto the shaft of the femur (thigh bone) on a short neck, at an angle of 45 degrees. A dog with dysplasia will have an almost straight femur heading into the femoral head. A healthy joint sits deep in the socket, so another indication of a poor hip is the ball barely sits in the socket.\nThe vet will also check that there is even joint space between the ball and the socket and that the ball joint is rounded rather than square. Dysplastic hips often resemble a square peg in a round hole, with a block-shaped femoral head or ball sitting in a scoop shaped socket. <img> Make sure your vet does an Ortolani test on your dog. Confirming hip dysplasia based on how your dog’s hips look on an x-ray is problematic, as an x-ray does not illustrate the degree of pain or lameness your dog might be experiencing. So make sure an Ortolani test is done by your vet in conjunction with an x-ray.\nUnder anesthesia, your dog will lie on his back with his thigh bone pointing towards the ceiling and his knee flexed. The vet will put pressure on the femur via your dog’s knee. If your dog’s hip is unstable, the hip bone will slip slightly out of joint, sometimes heard or felt as a “clunk”. The vet will then press the hip toward the pelvis, relocating the hip with another “clunk”.\nThese “clunks” and the hip’s ability to dislocate out of the joint indicates the hip joint is not being supported properly by your dog’s ligaments and muscles, a clear sign of hip dysplasia. <img> ", "Become familiar with the basic anatomy of the hip. A clear sense of hip anatomy will help to better grasp how hip dysplasia can occur in your dog.\nThe hip is a ball and socket joint. The femur (thigh bone) ends in a ball (the femoral head) which sits in a boney cup (the acetabulum) in the pelvis. Much like a ball bearing running smoothly on a track, the perfect hip joint moves smoothly because the cup (acetabulum) is the perfect fit for the ball (femoral head). <img> Be ware of the factors necessary to avoid pain in your dog’s hips. Even joint space, where the gap between the femoral head and the acetabulum is even all the way around and does not narrow or flare wider in certain areas, as well as the correct angle of the femoral head, all lead to healthy, pain free hips.\nMaintaining a perfect angle of 45 degrees where the femoral head joins onto the femur is important because when your dog stands, they will transfer weight up the shaft of the femur to the femoral head. If the angle is too straight, which usually occurs in hip dysplasia, your dog’s body weight will not spread evenly through the joint.\nAnother important factor is a tight soft tissue support network. A combination of muscles, ligaments, and tendons hold your dog’s bones in their correct alignment and allow for pain free movement. If this soft tissue network is too slack, which occurs in hip dysplasia, it allows the bones to move around too freely and they can bump and grind against one another an unhealthy way, leading to serious pain for your pup. <img> Think about restricting your dog’s diet to combat hip dysplasia. Studies have shown that a restricted diet for susceptible breeds can lead to a 46 percent decrease in cases of hip dysplasia. Feeding dogs to lessen their weight can also lessen the stress on their hip joints.\nHowever, a restricted diet does not alter the genetic predisposition to hip dysplasia found in larger dog breeds. <img> " ]

[ "Keep your email concise, conversational, and focused. It is harder to read letters on a computer screen than on a sheet of paper, so keep emails short and to the point. While there is no ideal email length, keep sentences short, about 8-12 words and leave a space between paragraphs.\nIn a work email, get straight to the point: \"I'm hoping you will...\" \"I think we should....\" etc. right up front, making the case in the following lines. Many people only read the first few lines before deciding to respond or to save for later. Those line should give enough of the \"meat\" to allow an informed decision. For personal emails, it's often a nice idea to open with a brief personal note before getting into the main point of your email. <img> Avoid fancy formatting. Changing fonts and colors, inserting bullet lists, or using HTML can make an email look bizarre or render it unreadable for the recipient, even if the formatting looks fine on your computer. Keep it simple. <img> Limit attachments. Don't add an attachment unless really necessary. Keep attachments as small as possible. Most email applications can send and receive attachments up to 1 MB, but anything over that can be a hassle for you or the recipient, and even smaller files can take a long time to open if the recipient's email connection is slow. If you need to send a larger file, compress or zip it or use online services that will help you send large files such as YouSendIt.com. If you need to send multiple pages, such as meeting plans or large text corrections, send a fax or a typed set of pages in a letter.\nDon't zip email attachments unless necessary. Unless an attachment is too large to send otherwise, you risk wasting your recipient's time and possibly hinder them from accessing your attachments. Many mobile devices are unable to uncompress zip files. Additionally it's redundant since many common files like .xlsx, .docx, .pptx (MS Excel, Word and Powerpoint) are already in a compressed format.\nKeep in mind that many people or businesses will not open attachments from someone they don't know, and some email accounts are set up to automatically send emails with attachments to the spam folder, so if you're applying for a job, for example, make sure you follow the recipient's instructions regarding attachments. If no instructions are given, send another email to let the recipient know you'll be sending an email with an attachment. <img> Think before you send. Don't send e-mails when you are emotional. Feel free to write the subject and text of the email, then save it. Only add the recipients and send it after you have had time to think about what you are sending; you might change your mind and be better off for it.\nEmail has also become a tool to ask or tell people things that you would normally never say face-to-face (ever wonder why you become a different person instinctively online?). If you are sending someone anything, reread it and ask yourself if you would say this to them if they were right next to you, or face-to-face. If it's on a touchy subject, read it twice. <img> Be careful using abbreviations and emoticons. This may be acceptable in an informal e-mail such as with a friend. However, in a formal letter you wouldn't have to tell someone that you're \"laughing out loud,\" people may find it inappropriate, and could feel you are being frivolous.\nSome abbreviations, such as \"BTW\" for \"By the Way,\" are commonly used in emails and are generally acceptable except in formal, professional emails. <img> ", "Use the recipient fields correctly. Addressees in the \"to\" field are expected to take action, and those on \"CC\" are for keeping colleagues or bosses informed.\nBe careful about requesting ACTION from more than one person in the \"To:\" field. This can lead to multiple efforts for the same task, or no effort because it's assumed someone else is handling the request.\nIf sending an e-mail to a list of people whose addresses you want to keep private, put them all in the BCC field and put your own address in the \"to\" field.\nIf you want to phase someone out of the thread (for example, if they have introduced you to someone else, and now you and that person are working out some details and you don't want to bog down the inbox of the introducer) move the person's address from the \"to\" or CC field over to the BCC field. <img> Make the subject line useful. A good subject line provides a useful summary of the email's content, preparing the reader quickly. Email inboxes are frequently swamped, so a good subject line helps the recipient determine the priority of your email. It also helps to prevent your email from being deleted before it has even been read. Since the subject is the first thing your recipient sees, keep it error free, concise, and avoid generic lines such as \"Hi,\" \"What's up,\" or the recipient's name (the latter may be blocked by anti-spam filters).\nAvoid prioritizing your messages for the recipient. Get out of the habit of marking every email as \"Urgent!” or \"High Priority\" or your emails will end up being treated like the boy who cried wolf and they'll all get ignored. It is irritating and presumptuous to assume your e-mail request is higher in the queue than anybody else's, especially in a work context. Be gracious enough to give the receiver credit for working out for themselves how to prioritize your message. <img> ", "Be careful of who you copy on replies. If you reply to a message and then CC: a third-party that the original sender did not include, be certain in your mind that the original sender will not be upset about it. This information may have been \"for your eyes only\". This is especially important if the original sender is your work supervisor. Be cautious about using BCC:. This can backfire if the person being BCC:'d replies back, not having seen that their copy was a blind one. <img> Determine to whom you should reply. Emails sent to you solely generally require that you reply only to the sender, but for emails sent to several people, you may need to choose the \"Reply to All\" option to send your response to everyone. Be judicious; using \"Reply All\" all the time creates returns in abundance and leaves messages languishing in the in-boxes of many people. Consider the consequences of receiving an email, hitting reply all and it goes out to twenty people and then those twenty people hit reply to all; it can compound very quickly into hundreds of thousands of emails and everyone feels compelled to hit \"reply all\" as a means of keeping everyone in the loop because nobody knows who is meant to read it and who is not. <img> Think twice before replying to just say thank you. Some people don't want an email that says \"Thanks.\" This takes additional time to open the email and read it just to read what you already know. Some people include a line that says “NTN” – “No Thanks Needed.” <img> Summarize long discussions. Scrolling through pages of replies to understand a discussion is annoying. Instead of continuing to forward a message string, take a minute to summarize it for your reader(s). <img> Be sure to include info that you are responding to. Many people, and companies, write and respond to hundreds of emails every day. Avoid sending an indistinct email that says only 'Yes'. Include the question that the recipient asked so they know what you are responding to. Avoid making the recipient scroll down more than a single message in the history. <img> Reply promptly. If you need to do some research or some thinking before you respond to an email, or if you're too busy to write a full response promptly, send a short response letting the sender know that you got the email and advising when you will respond. <img> Be proactive. When replying to an email, you can save everybody some time by anticipating any questions or concerns your reply may elicit. Address these in your reply before somebody has to send a new email to ask about them. <img> ", "Don't forward emails that are private. For example, avoid forwarding an email containing a secret, especially if the person you're e-mailing doesn't want you to. Doing so can possibly cause the recipient to lose trust in you, and you could possibly have your relationship messed up. You certainly do not want that to happen. <img> Don't spread rumors about people. If you feel tempted to do so, put yourself in the other person's shoes, and think about how you would feel if that person spread rumors about you. For example, if your friend has a reputation for being mean and bossy, think about how you would feel if your friend told your other friends about one of your quirks. You wouldn't be very happy, right? <img> Avoid discussing people's private business. For example, avoid letting your friend know that her friend broke up with an ex-boyfriend. Email isn't completely private, so it's possible that the person whose business you're discussing could see the emails and become mad at you and/or embarrassed, and this could mess up your relationship with the person. <img> Avoid flaming. Flames are basically insults sent online to offend you, so it's important not to send flames to other people or start flame wars. This could make the other person mad, and you could also have your account suspended for this. <img> Avoid sharing the personal information of others without permission. This can be anything, from a person's age to the name of the school that he or she goes to. Put yourself in the other person's shoes -- how would you feel if someone gave your friend the address of your house? You would not be very happy, so be sure to obtain permission before sharing someone's personal information with others over email, or don't do so at all. <img> Don't send an email when you're angry. It will show you are angry and you can upset the person. For example, if you're angry at someone at work, and you email that person a large rant in all caps, this could cause the person that you emailed to become irritated. This is the same thing with replying to emails; if you're angry at someone for sending you a particular message, hold off replying until you have calmed down. <img> " ]

[ "Open a window and turn on a vent or fan to ventilate the room. Both mold and the products you’ll use to clean it can irritate your eyes, throat, and respiratory system. Opening your windows will allow the air to circulate around the room so you aren’t exposed to the fumes for too long. If you have vents in the room where you're cleaning, turn those on, as well. Additionally, angle a fan so it blows the fumes away from you and toward the window.\nIf it’s cold outside, you still need to open at least 1 window to allow the air to circulate in the room.Tip: It’s best to wait for a dry, sunny day to treat the mold. As you clean the mold, spores will likely enter the air and may land on other areas of your home, which may be wet from the rain. Since mold grows best in moist areas, it will be harder to fully eradicate the mold when it’s raining. <img> Put on a facemask, gloves, and protective eyewear. Mold can cause an upper respiratory if you breathe in the spores. Similarly, fumes from the cleaning products can irritate your airways, eyes, and skin. Make sure you’re wearing your protective gear during the entire time you’re cleaning up the mold.\nIt’s also a good idea to wear long pants, a long-sleeved shirt, and rubber boots, if you have them. This will protect your skin while you clean. <img> Read all of the instructions for using your cleaning product. Some cleaning products contain harsh ingredients, and using them incorrectly can be harmful to your health. Additionally, you could accidentally damage the surface you’re cleaning. It’s best to read and follow the instructions carefully.\nRead the precautions and warnings provided by the manufacturer. <img> Avoid mixing bleach with ammonia. If mixed together, bleach and ammonia create toxic fumes that can be very hazardous to your health. It’s very important that you avoid combining them. Read the labels on the products you’re using so you know if they contain bleach or ammonia.\nIn general, it’s best to just avoid combining cleaning products all together. <img> Throw away absorbent or porous items that are moldy. These items include things like drywall, upholstered furniture, carpet, rugs, ceiling tiles, and art, which either have holes in the surface of them or absorb liquids. Unfortunately, the mold spores can get into the pores of the material and continue to grow, even after you clean the item. Since those spores also reproduce and continue to spread the mold, it’s best to get them out of your home.\nIf an item can be laundered, then you may be able to salvage it. For instance, you may be able to wash a blanket or curtains in a washing machine.Tip: If you have an item that is very important to you and you don’t want to throw it away, you may be able to hire a professional to salvage it. Things like furniture, art, and rugs may be able to be restored by someone trained in killing mold on porous materials. <img> ", "Use bleach to effectively kill mold on surfaces. Make a bleach solution by adding 1 cup (240 mL) of bleach to 1 gallon (3.8 L) of water. Put the solution in a bucket or spray bottle. Then, apply it directly onto the mold when you’re ready to use it.\nBe very careful when cleaning with bleach. It can irritate both your lungs and your skin. Additionally, it may stain fabrics or carpet if you splash or spill it.\nDon’t ever combine bleach with ammonia or a cleaning product that contains ammonia. <img> Opt for hydrogen peroxide as an effective bleach alternative. Get a bottle of 3% concentration hydrogen peroxide, and don’t dilute it. Pour the hydrogen peroxide into a spray bottle or a bucket. Then, spray or sponge the hydrogen peroxide directly onto the mold.\nHydrogen peroxide is both antibacterial and antifungal. Additionally, it cleans about as effectively as bleach, and it doesn’t create harsh fumes. However, it may stain fabric or carpet, so be careful not to spill or splash it. <img> Use white vinegar to kill the mold if you want a natural treatment. Don’t dilute the vinegar before you use it. Instead, spray or sponge it directly onto the mold.\nVinegar has a very strong smell that you may not like. However, it will fade away over time. As another option, you can add your favorite essential oil to the vinegar to reduce the smell.Variation: Add baking soda to the vinegar to create a foaming mold treatment. Add equal parts baking soda and vinegar, which will create a foaming reaction. Use a sponge or stiff-bristled brush to scrub the solution onto the mold. <img> Use baking soda for a natural option that also removes odor. Fill a spray bottle with warm water, then add .25 tbsp (5 g) of baking soda. Shake the bottle to mix the 2 ingredients. Then, spray the baking soda onto the mold when you’re ready to use it.\nBaking soda is a very effective natural cleaner. Plus, it’s odor absorbent, so it may help you get rid of the musty mold smell. <img> Try borax for a natural mold treatment. Add 1 cup (204 g) of borax to 1 gallon (3.8 L) of water in bucket. Stir the solution to combine the ingredients, and transfer some of the solution to a spray bottle, if you have one. Then, apply the cleaner to the wall by spraying it or sponging it over the mold. \nYou can find borax near the laundry supplies at your local department store or online. <img> Use tea tree oil if enjoy cleaning with essential oils. Add 1 teaspoon (4.9 mL) of tea tree oil to 1 cup (240 mL) of warm water in a spray bottle or bowl. Then, apply the treatment directly onto the mold. It’s best not to rinse tea tree oil after you apply it, as it’s nontoxic and will prevent the mold from coming back.\nTea tree oil is antifungal and antibacterial, and it may be the most effective natural cleaner for mold. Additionally, it’s not harmful to people or pets. However, it can be a bit expensive, but you don’t need very much to treat mold.\nMake sure the tea tree oil you choose is labeled as coming from Melaleuca Alternifolia, which is the technical name for tea trees. <img> Make a 1:1 solution of clear ammonia and water for a strong cleaner. Add the ingredients to a spray bottle or bucket, then shake or stir to mix them together. Next, apply the ammonia-water solution directly onto the mold with your spray bottle or a sponge.\nYou can find clear ammonia in your cleaning aisle. Don’t use a product that isn't labeled as “clear” to clean mold.\nNever, ever combine ammonia with bleach or a product that contains bleach.\nAmmonia may need to set longer than other mold treatments, so you may want to give it up to 3 hours to treat the mold. <img> Purchase a commercial bleach cleaner for an easy option. You can find several mold treatments available for purchase, or you can just get a cleaner that contains bleach. Check the label to make sure that the product you choose says it will kill mold.\nYou can find these products on the cleaning aisle at your local department store or online. <img> ", "Scrub the mold with soap and water to clean the surface. Add about 2 tablespoons (30 mL) of a mild dish detergent to a bucket of warm water, then stir to mix them. Dip a stiff-bristled brush into the soapy water, then scrub the affected area. Rinse the brush in the bucket often to keep the brush clean as you scrub away the mold. Remove as much of the mold as you can.\nThe root of the mold will likely remain on the surface, even if you don’t see it. However, scrubbing the area with soap and water will make it easier for the cleaning product you use to penetrate to the root of the mold and kill it. <img> Apply your cleaning solution to the mold to kill it. Use a spray bottle or sponge to apply the solution to the moldy area. Go over the area several times to make sure it’s fully saturated. You want the cleaning solution to penetrate the mold to effectively kill it.\nYou don’t need to scrub the area at this time. <img> Allow the cleaner to sit for 15 minutes to 1 hour so it penetrates the root. This gives the treatment time to work. Harsh treatments like bleach, hydrogen peroxide, and ammonia typically work quickly. Alternatively, natural treatments like white vinegar, baking soda, borax, and tea tree oil often require longer to work.\nYou may want to periodically apply more cleaner, depending on the surface you’re treating. If the liquid cleaner seems to be pooling below the mold-affected area, you may want to add more cleaner and soak up the excess liquid. <img> Scrub the surface with a stiff-bristled brush, if necessary. If you removed all of the mold when you scrubbed the area with soap and water, then you don’t need to scrub. However, it’s best to scrub if you have lingering mold or a mold stain. Use your stiff-bristled brush to work the cleaner into the mold. Rinse your brush often to keep it clean.\nIf necessary, you can apply more of the cleaning solution you’re using as you scrub the area. However, don’t switch cleaners, even if you’re unhappy with the results. <img> Rinse and dry the area. You don't need to rinse the area unless you prefer not to leave a residue. However, you do need to dry it. If you want to rinse the area, use clean water to remove the remnants of the cleaning solution. Then, pat the area dry with a clean towel. To speed up the drying process, blow the area with a fan.\nIf you are unhappy with the results of your cleaning process, you can try again. However, before you try a different cleaner, thoroughly rinse the affected area to remove any remaining residue from your cleaning solution. Then, let the area fully dry before you try again.Variation: You don’t need to rinse liquid cleansers, like a bleach solution, white vinegar, tea tree oil, or an ammonia solution.

[ "Make sure to be \"hot\" instead of \"cute\". Being \"hot\" has the connotation of being an adult who people have an instant sexual attraction toward. This stands in contrast to being \"cute\". Usually when someone is considered cute, they are attractive in more of a youthful way and less of a sexual way. So if you want to be a hot person, you can dress to impress and get the attitude. \nThere is also a misconception that \"hot\" means \"sexy\", but they are not actually the same thing. \"Sexy\" means attractive in a more grown-up, mature way (where you do not need to have an edge). Think of the difference between a Megan Fox and Angelina Jolie. Angelina Jolie is mature and classy (which is where she gets her sexiness from), while Megan Fox is edgy, daring, and seductive (which is mostly what makes her \"hot\"). <img> Sharpen your edge. To look hot, you need to be a little intriguing and mysterious. When people see you, you want them to think \"ooh\" rather than \"aww\". You can do this by not telling everyone everything about yourself at once, not always being available, and just taking a longer time to open up. This will keep people wondering and guessing about you.\nYou need to have a little edge. Think of the difference between a stereotypical rock star and a stereotypical teacher. If both are good-looking, you'd probably think of the rock star as hot, and the teacher as cute. Both are good, but if you want to be considered hot, flirting subtly or a tinge of rebelliousness helps. <img> Be comfortable with your body. To be sexually attractive, you need to be comfortable in your own skin and know how to emphasize your best qualities. That doesn't mean you have to show skin, but being just a little seductive doesn't hurt. If you feel comfortable doing it, let people see the parts of your body that you love the most—or just enough to intrigue them. Whether you're showing your sculpted arms or just a bit of cleavage, you'll be on your way to being hot.\nIf you're having difficulty being comfortable in your own skin, try to find a different way of being with your body. For example, instead of criticizing your body, find ways to move in your body that feel good. Find an activity you enjoy doing where you use your body. This can help you improve your body image and appreciate what your body does for you — the more you use and appreciate your body, the more comfortable you will be with your body. <img> Have good posture. Stand up straight and look proud and happy to be who you are and to look how you look. Keep your shoulders up, your head looking straight ahead, and your arms at your sides. Avoid slouching, or you won't look confident. People who are hot have good posture because they're proud to own what they've got—and they love to flaunt it. If you're a woman, walk like a diva and smile seductively from time to time. <img> Get in shape. There are many hot people who aren't in the best shape, and there are many people in great shape who aren't hot. However, if you want to get some more attention from others, work to lose weight if you are overweight, or do muscle-building exercises if you are underweight or skinny. Make an appointment with the local gym to see which machines/workout routines are best for you.\nExercising will also make you feel more comfortable in your own skin and happier to be who you are. This will make you look and feel hot, too.\nHowever, remember that the only person who can decide what's good for you and your body is yourself. Body image dissatisfaction is rampant in our society, and you get to choose to love your body as it is.\nAlways put your health first, not your weight. Remember, what you weigh is not more important than who you are. <img> Be hygienic. This means brushing your teeth and flossing at least twice a day, washing your face to get rid of blackheads or acne, washing your hair on a suitable schedule, and generally taking care of your body. You should also use deodorant, trim your fingernails, and smell fresh. If you want, try a nice-smelling fragrance, or treat yourself to a spa day.\nNo matter how hard you work out, if you show up smelling like you haven't showered in a few days, not many people will consider you hot. <img> Look mature. Make sure you look sharp in your outfits by picking clothes that flatter your figure. Remember that hotness is in the eye of the beholder, but take the time to shop around for clothes that complement you in color and style. Here are some things to keep in mind as you get hotter:\nTrying fashion trends can help you become more noticed.\nUse jewelry. Look for earrings, necklaces, bracelets, rings, or bangles.\nDon't wear gym clothes, running shoes, or free crew neck T-shirts. Save those for when you work out.\nYou can dress casually as long as you appear as though you put effort into the way. <img> Maintain great hairstyles. A few great styles include straightening, curling, crimping, a bun, beach-like waves, a fishtail braid, a ponytail, or a messy bun. Hot people are dynamic. They are always mixing things up and keeping people on their toes. Think of J-Law chopping off her locks for a short hairdo—she looks even hotter!\nAs for guys, if you find one cut that really works for you, you can stick to it for a while. If you're going bald, don't underestimate how hot a fully shaved head can be. And a bit of gray is definitely hot, too. <img> Consider wearing makeup, if you want to. The key is to keep it at a minimum. Eye shadow, mascara, eyeliner, and lip gloss or balm is all you need, unless you have acne or a skin-related disease, in which case concealer and optionally foundation is a good choice. Makeup can tell guys that you like their attention (as unrealistic as this sounds, anything \"sexy\" can give a message that you're begging for attention, so be careful not to go overboard with makeup).\nFeel free to try makeup if you're open to that style. Eyeliner in particular can be attractive on people of all genders, or you can just use concealer to cover up imperfections. <img> Look a little edgy. If you're masculine, you can skip this step. For clothes, tanks, shorts, layering tops, yoga-leggings, and jeans are just some ideas. If you are young, you can get in the way with wearing anything (as long as you aren't made fun of for wearing it). Think of Beyonce or what The Saturdays wore in their music video \"What About Us\". Remember: skimpy clothes don't make you any more hot. <img> ", "Be mature. You cannot be \"hot\" if you remind people of a young child by complaining constantly, picking fights with others, and acting immature. Stay classy in your attitude, present yourself with poise, and be polite to everyone you meet. Treat people with respect, avoid whining, and take responsibility for your actions. If you act mature, people will see that you're a person worth knowing, and someone who should be taken seriously.\nYou don't want people to be turned off because they think you're a crybaby or a complainer. Make sure to project an image of yourself that isn't childish. <img> Be cool. Ironically, being hot means being cool. For instance, think of Brad Pitt. He is considered by many (but not all) people to be hot because he has a cool demeanor, is handsome, and he's not always smiling or talking (this does not mean you can't smile or talk to others).\nHot people say things that are necessary, witty, or things people want to hear.\nDuring terrifying situations, hot people impress others by simply not freaking out, telling others that it's nothing or okay, and sometimes handling it.\nSomeone who's hot isn't usually hyper, or nervous. <img> Exude confidence. Hot people know they're hot and have the confidence to back it up. Be proud and happy with who you are, walk with your head high, and talk about positive things and things that make you happy. If you walk around looking like you're waiting to get noticed or like you don't know who you are, then you won't come off as hot. Instead, smile big when you enter a room, be friendly to people, and give people the benefit of the doubt when you first meet them instead of being instantly suspicious of anyone outside your social circle.\nIf you want to be confident, then try hanging out with people who make you feel good about yourself.\nOf course, it's okay to doubt yourself. You don't have to act happy with yourself all the time. When you have doubts, talk to a close friend instead of letting everyone around know that you're feeling insecure. However, if you doubt yourself too much, then people will believe that you are weak and not confident, which you must exude in order to be supposedly \"hot\". <img> Don't get too emotional. You can be really happy or really mad, sure, but in general, hot people keep it pretty even keeled. You don't see them crying for joy, shrieking when they see their friends, or snapping at their teachers. Instead, they pretty much know when to show that they're happy or sad, but they don't overdo it. They don't draw attention to themselves because of how they are feeling. People will notice them because they're awesome, not because they're having a hissy fit.\nIf you're talking to a friend and feel yourself getting angry, take a minute to take a breather and get to feeling calm again. <img> Treat everyone with kindness. It's a myth that really hot people are only nice to other hot people and ignore the people \"below\" them. If you're truly hot, then you should be able to see past the exterior and to know which people are worth knowing. Don't just hang out with people who are hot and who make you look good; instead, spend time with the people who you respect and like the most. Look around you and ask about the company you keep; are these people really the nice, kind people you want to be?\nIf you're nice to everyone, people will be even more impressed by you, because they'll think, \"It's so awesome that they are really friendly to everyone in spite of being so hot. They really aren’t letting that get to their head.\"\nThis goes for strangers or people you just meet, too. Don't go into a new conversation with suspicion; try excitement or curiosity instead.\n\nDon't be a snob. Don't walk by that girl in your history class and look the other way just because you think it's not \"cool\" to say hi to people. <img> Avoid bragging too much. Just because you think you're hot, it doesn't give you an excuse to go on and on about how much weight you lifted at the gym, how great you look in your new outfit, or how many phone numbers you got over the weekend. If you're really hot, then other people will notice and they will do the work for you. People won't feel like you're really hot if you're constantly trying to prove it to them. The next time you open your mouth to brag, stop yourself and praise someone else instead.\n\nBeing humble and modest can go a long way in making you look and feel hot. If you brag all the time, people won't like you because they'll think you're full of yourself. <img> Keep your options open. Hot people don't get all obsessed over one crush, or spend 100% of their time fawning over their boyfriends and girlfriends. Instead, they play the field a little bit. If they find someone they like, then yeah, they'll stick by them, but in general, hot people take things lightly and enjoy exploring their options. If you're out at a party or a club, don't just home in on the one person you like as if you're a laser: instead, talk to a variety of people, and you may end up liking someone you didn't expect to click with.\nHot people also don't get too disappointed by rejection. Sure, rejection sucks, but don't spend too long feeling sorry for yourself it's just not worth it. <img> Avoid checking yourself out in public. If you're hot, then you should know it. Don't check yourself out in windows outside, and don't take out your mirror and start adjusting your makeup in front of everyone. Your hotness should look easy and effortless. If you need to check up on your appearance, do it in the privacy of a bathroom, not out in the open. Otherwise, you may come off as insecure. <img> Be gracious. Hot people should be gracious and happy for what they've got. They shouldn't be sore losers, mad over the little things, or rude to waiters, teachers, or strangers. Gracious people treat everyone with kindness, help people out, and recognize that they're lucky to be alive. Don't act like you deserve to be treated like a million bucks while everyone else is chopped liver; this kind of behavior is ugly and will turn people off.\nGracious people know that they have to work for what they want and don't think that they \"deserve\" to get the best of everything. If you really want to be hot, then you have to be kind and grateful about it, too. <img> Be nice to your friends. There's a stereotype of people who treat their friends more like accessories (think: Regina George in Mean Girls) because they're just so hot that they can do anything they want. Well, it's up to you to break that trend. Don't treat your friends like lemmings, sidekicks, or followers who are at your beck and call. Instead, treat them like equals, and let them have equal say in what you do. Ask them how they're doing, take the time to do something nice for them, and make sure your friendships are meaningful.\nDon't be the person who gossips about his or her friends the second they turn around, either. You'll quickly get a reputation for being fake. <img> Be hot around people you're attracted to. If you want to be hot, then you have to be able to flirt a bit when you're talking to someone you like. However, this doesn't mean that you have to put it all out there and come on too strong. Find a balance between keeping your cool and giving the person a little bit to work with; that way, you'll come off as hot, but people will still want to get to know you. If people think you're an ice queen or in love with yourself, you won't be getting many dates, no matter how hot you are.\nAnd if someone who you're not into comes up to you, be as nice as you can about it.

[ "Cope with mixed feelings. Middle school is the next level up to your future! Think of life like a video game- each level gets progressively harder and harder, and you may have to repeat steps to get to the next level. Middle school often means new friends, getting used to a block schedule, getting a locker, and dealing with other challenges. Your friends may be in a different school than you, so you'll have to make many new friends. Talking with people you don't know can be intimidating, but assume good faith. Not everyone's a bully or isn't interested in you- just imagine that the person's a nice person that wants to make as many friends as possible.\nYou may be excited about going to a new school- new teachers, making new friends, getting a locker, and ditching old, mean friends can be a relief to many kids who found out that being in middle school means that a bunch of people are new to you. Some people will know you from elementary school (if they go to the same school as you), but others will be from different elementary schools.\nIf you are nervous, that's normal! Middle schools are often larger than elementary schools, and teachers expect students to be responsible for all of their tasks- students need to do their homework, turn it in on time, manage chores, juggle with extracurriculars (which may increase in middle school), and do other things.\nIf you are sad, cry it out. It's ok to be sad if you are leaving your elementary school. Especially if you have been at your elementary school since kindergarten or preschool (which totals to 6-8 years in elementary school), it's hard to leave your best friends and teachers that you've known for so long! Deal with being excited for middle school. 6th or 7th grade means a new beginning for students. All of the teachers are new, you will have a different schedule, get assigned a locker, and make a lot of fun friends. If you've just graduated elementary school, you'll have to wait until summer vacation's over.\nIn the meantime, talk with your friends online! You can get some life updates from them and share your thoughts about middle school together. You could also fill up your time going on a vacation like a regular summer vacation. Travel across the state, across the country, or even to a different country.\nWhen you're nearing the beginning of middle school, happily shop for school supplies. If you've used your school supplies for many years already, they're probably worn out or broken. Purchase new ones at a school supply shop, like Staples, Target, Office Depot, etc. If your school offers you school supplies, just purchase some pencils, a couple of erasers, a glue stick, some pens, a pair of scissors, and a pencil case to put those supplies in. Deal with your feelings if you are sad. Elementary school, for some kids, marks the end of friendships and childhood. In middle school, talking about My Little Pony or SpongeBob SquarePants might get you a few stares and you could be seen as immature. You may have to deal with friends moving away or going to a different school. All of this can be hard to deal with.\nIf your friends are leaving, take time to talk to them during the last months, weeks, and days of school. Make sure to ask them for their contact info, like their email address or phone number. This ensures that you can email or call each other during convenient times even if you can't see each other.\nIf you have more unique interests, you may be seen as immature. If you still enjoy playing with toys, that's ok! Same goes if you watch cartoons. Not everyone outgrows these things, and many outgrow them due to peer pressure that liking these things is \"immature\", \"babyish\", or \"stupid\". Don't listen to those mean/negative people and walk away when they start talking about this. Talk to a teacher about these bullies if they physically hurt you or call you names. Prepare for middle school. Middle school is different than elementary school in many different ways. You'll have more work to do, and you will need to be responsible for turning in your homework and managing your time responsibly. Peer pressure may increase in middle school too. This might sound like a lot to deal with, but it is actually easy to get used to. You may have required reminders from your parents to do homework. This will decrease, and your parents will likely increase their expectations that you know what homework to do and when to turn it in.\nYou will need to improve on your studying skills, since tests will increase. Don't put off studying until the last day- you won't remember anything you crammed into that study session, and you will get bad grades. Start studying a week to 4 days before the test.\nUnderstand that you don't have to give in to requests from others. You don't (and shouldn't) listen to people that tell you to bully others, pull mean pranks, steal something, injure others, gossip, vandalize, drink underage, or do any other unethical or illegal things. Doing these could get you expelled or even arrested. Check in with your parents to see information about your middle school. A month to a few weeks before the middle school year starts, your school should've provided you with basic information about the school, what the rules are, who the teachers are, and the dress code. Your school usually sends an email to your caretakers that talks about these things. Go over these things and ask your parents to send a follow-up email if you have concerns or questions on anything.\nA month to a week before school starts, you might receive your homeroom teacher, the first class/period you have and what classroom it is in, and/or your schedule. Review these things to make sure you don't get lost on the first day!", "Get up earlier. This doesn't just apply to people who live further away from the school- even if you live just 5 minutes from the school, you never know what could happen. Your parents' car might've broken down, you may have a menstrual accident in your school clothes (and have to clean up), you might have lost school supplies, or your siblings might've woken up too late. Wake up an hour to 30 minutes earlier than your regular wakeup time. This ensures that you know where to go and what to prepare for middle school.\nIf you usually wake up at 7 AM for school, set your alarm or wake up at 6:30 AM. If you wake up at 6:30 AM, wake up at 6 AM. If you wake up at 7:15, wake up at 6:45 AM at the least. Go over your classroom number, your homeroom teacher's name, and/or your schedule. These things are given to you a month to a week before school starts, and you want to review these things just in case you forget. Write these down in a planner or a small notepad just for school stuff. If your schedule says you go to Room 19, find where Room 19 is on the school map or directory. If it says Room 206, search for room 206. Find a nice outfit to wear on the first day of middle school. You should wear a nice outfit to wear on the first day of middle school. It makes you feel more confident and can help you make friends easier! If your school does not provide nor require uniforms, you will need to choose your own clothing. Choose a simple outfit. It could be as easy as a T-shirt and sweatpants or a blouse and jeans.\nBefore you choose an outfit, groom yourself by shaving off armpit and leg hairs and showering if you do it in the morning. You should also comb your hair to make it presentable.\nYou don't want to wear overly distracting clothing, like neon or sparkly pieces. Don't wear anything with swear words or inappropriate slurs on it.\nYou should also avoid overly revealing clothing at all costs. Don't wear a short crop top or a shirt with a very low neckline. Don't put on a very short skirt or sag your pants either.\nIf you require a uniform, wear that. Wear your uniform (that your caretakers probably purchased from the school or a uniform company), which could consist of a white, red, blue, or gray polo shirt, trousers with a belt, a plaid or gray skirt, and a school uniform sweater, sweatshirt, or jacket if it's chilly outside. Stay calm when you arrive at your first class. When you get to school, it's probably very nerve-wracking. So, calm your fears down when it's time to enter the classroom. Promise yourself that your first class will go amazingly, and that it'll be very fun. Don't worry that people will hate you, that you'll get lost during your next class, or that the teacher will be mean. Understand that you have those thoughts, then change them to positive thoughts. You will be liked by everyone, you will find your way to your next class, and the teacher will like you very much.\nThe teacher may have assigned seats. Some teachers allow students to choose their own seats on the first day of school. Choose a seat in the front if you can, since it helps you concentrate (and not look at the other things in the classroom). If you can't choose, see who you're sitting with.\nListen to the teacher's important instructions. The first day's mostly going to be introductions to the school, the school's rules, student introductions, and the first assignments. There will likely be forms for your parents to sign, like welcome letters from teachers and technology use agreements. Remember to tell your caretakers this to let them sign the papers. Know how to open your locker. You may feel embarrassed that you don't know how to open a locker since the 7th and 8th (and sometimes 9th) graders are experts in deciphering locks on lockers. Turning numbers on a lock may seem difficult, but most locks are easy to open. Most schools have combination locks, which have a number dial for you to turn.\nFirst, turn the dial three times to the right (or clockwise). This resets the previous numbers that were turned. Turn it up to the number 0. The number 0 should be turned all the way upright on the last turn.\nNext, know your first number. Turn right to your first number so that it is at the very top of your lock, like the 12 on an analog clock. If your first number's 10, turn right all the way to the number 10 so that it is at the very top of your lock.\nThen, turn left (or counterclockwise) to your first number again. If it's 10, turn your lock to the number 10 again. After this, turn left again, but this time turn it to your second number. If your first number's 10 and your second number's 22, turn left from the number 10 and turn it until you reach 22.\nLastly, know your last number. Turn right to your last number. If it's 41, turn right from 22 (your second number) to 41. 41 should be at the top of your lock. You can then open your locker from the side or on top of the lock by pushing or pulling it. If your lock has a shackle (the upside-down U-shaped piece), pull on it, and the lock should open. You can then open your locker by pulling the door open or pushing on a lever on the locker. Find what to do during breaks and lunchtime. The \"recess\" or \"playtime\" you have experienced for so long will be replaced by a 15-25 minute break. Middle schools won't have a playground anymore, since most kids won't be interested in playing and running around. Since you can't play on the play structure, you'll need to find other ways to spend your time.\nLearn how to open your locker. If you didn't get time to do this while moving from class to class, do it during break or lunch.\nTalk with your old friends. This makes your experience of making friends less nerve-wracking, and you can talk about how school's like so far. You may see some familiar faces in your class and many new ones.\nHang out with new classmates. There are probably people you don't know in the school in your 6th grade class, since 2-4 elementary schools' students come to one middle school. There are less middle schools than elementary schools. Say hi to someone beside their locker, or catch up to someone walking by themselves and introduce yourself.\nPeople-gaze. This is when you watch other students around the school. If you want to find someone to talk to or are shy, do this first for a few days. Look at students walking around, kids opening their lockers, the sporty boys from your old school talking about memes, the kids playing basketball on the basketball court, someone sitting alone on a bench, or teachers walking around.\nYou could also walk up to the school fence or wire and watch things outside of your school. See the cars drive by, leaves rustling and falling to the ground, people walking on the street, or the clouds in the sky (only if the sun isn't too bright).\nEat a snack. Many kids bring a snack to recess in elementary school- you can do the same thing in middle school. Hold your snack and eat it while talking to your friends near the lockers, or walk around with your snack. You could also sit down to eat slower.", "Pay attention during class. Listen carefully during class to make sure you know all of the instructions. In elementary school, you may have gotten away with zoning out for a quarter or even half of the class. In middle school, especially a private middle school, you'll need to pay attention to every detail. You don't want to miss some instructions on formatting essays or instructions on doing a project! Even small details count- some strict schools may subtract points if you miss out on writing small details, like positive and negative signs, punctuation errors, typos, or not indenting paragraphs.\nIgnore people who try to distract you. Your best friends or the class clown may try to distract you by making funny faces, passing notes, tapping your shoulder, or whispering to you. Ignore them, and after class, tell them to stop talking during class, since it distracts you.\nAvoid talking during class. Sure, it may be really challenging in class to not share a cool story to your friends, laugh at a funny joke, catch up with your friends with PC games, or talk about a meme with your friends. But those can wait until after class. Whenever you're about to start a conversation during class, think to yourself, \"I need to pay attention to get a good participation grade.\" or \"This meme can wait. I should close down this meme website, since it's not related to school.\"\nTry to pay attention even though people around you are talking. You should tell the teacher about the noisy classmates if they are disrupting your concentration or disrupt your ability to hear the teacher. Use your time in class wisely. Class times vary from 40 to 60 minutes, and that is plenty of time to work. Your teacher may have spent half of that time lecturing, but spend the rest of the time working on the assignment your teacher told you to do. Don't waste it by surfing on banned websites, chatting with friends, fidgeting with a Rubik's cube, or doing anything unrelated to school.\nDon't spend 10 minutes or even 5 minutes chatting with your friends. You might get carried away and waste all of your time in class talking instead of doing classwork.\nIf you have extra time left over, do other assigned homework from school, read a book, or relax.\nIf your teacher assigned a web article, read it. If your teacher gave you a worksheet to do, write it. If you need to take pre-algebra notes, start taking them. If you need to work on a project (alone or in groups), start on the project. If you are in a group, talk with your group members about which roles everyone gets in the project. Attend electives in your middle school. Electives are additional classes that you attend that reflect your interests. They are similar to clubs, but they are more formal and you learn more useful things in elective classes. If you're applying to a private high school, joining a couple of electives can help you get into the private high school of your choice.\nCommon electives in middle school include a computer science, graphic arts, visual arts, performing arts, cooking, journalism, Spanish, Chinese, and crafts electives.\nSome schools only allow middle schoolers to choose electives in 7th grade, so you may have to wait until next year to choose. Join a sports team at your school. Most middle schools offer sports teams that students can join. You'll have to attend the tryouts first to see which students get in and which ones don't. This sounds intimidating, as in elementary school, anyone could join, no matter how amazing or mediocre their playing skills were. Your team will also compete in tournaments with other middle schools. So, you'll need to actually commit to this and attend practices- you can't slack off or not practice anything. You should attend all practices and games unless you are very sick or have some other mandatory event that you have to attend.\nSome schools have sports that rotate on a schedule- during the fall, they may offer boys' football and girls' volleyball. In the winter, they may offer sports like boys' and girls' basketball. In the spring, they could offer boys' soccer and track and field.\nUnderstand that not making the team is not the end of the world. You can always practice your skills when you're not on the team to try out again for next year. Join clubs at your school. In addition to regular school, you can join clubs. Clubs are afterschool activities that reflect your interests. Middle schools often have a lot of clubs for you to choose from. These are a space for doing what you enjoy while learning a few things and doing fun projects.\nSome clubs your school may have include a book, newspaper, writing, journalism, student council, synopsis, environmental, math, ACSL, robotics, coding, history, art, music, speech and debate, drama, and a choir club.\nIf there isn't a club suited to your interests, ask a teacher or head of your school (usually the principal or headmaster) if you can make a club.\nYou should join more clubs in 6th or 7th grade than future years. You might not have time to join that many clubs in 8th or 9th grade because of preparation for high school. Join 2, 3, or even 4 clubs if you can to enjoy them. Tell someone if you are being bullied. Bullying doesn't cease in middle school, so you should be prepared. Private, public, online, charter, and magnet schools all have bullying- private schools don't have less rates of bullying than public schools, even though students in private schools are usually middle-class, have a stable family life, and are more educated. Bullying is never fun nor is it good, so it's crucial to immediately tell a trusted adult- whether that's a teacher, counselor, or even the principal at your school.\nAnyone can bully you in different ways- they may make fun of your clothes, say that your interests are \"silly\" or \"stupid\", gossip about you, make you late to class, or do physical things to you (punching, shoving, kicking, pushing, pulling, or slamming you). These are all warning signs of bullying, so it's important to tell someone about this. Make some new friends in middle school. Sure, hanging out with your old buddies feels exciting. You guys get to catch up with things, like what you did during the summer and other life events. But it's best to make some new ones, since this indicates that you're open to change. There will be some lonely kids that have trouble making new friends (as their old friends are now in different middle schools or maybe they didn't have any friends) because everyone is just sticking with their old friends from elementary school. So, try to make some new friends instead of hanging out with old friends all the time.\nIf there is time during a class transition, try to make some small talk. Say something like, \"How was your first class? For me, I felt pretty nervous.\" or \"I'm so excited to have our first pre-algebra lesson! I can't wait for all of the introductions to be over, since math's my favorite subject.\" or \"How are you feeling today? I still haven't memorized my schedule, even though it's been a week of 6th grade already.\"\nDuring lunch, sit next to a new group of classmates. Don't judge them or hold prejudice against them. Assume good faith, and don't think that \"Oh, they already have friends, so they won't want to talk to me.\", \"They are probably mean/they hate me.\" or \"They don't seem to have anything in common with me.\". You could also sit next to a person sitting alone and try to talk with them about school, clubs, and personal life. Cope with having a crush on someone in middle school. Crushes can start at early as elementary school, although those are usually short-lived and last for a few days or a few weeks. Middle school crushes are more serious, and you may feel awkward about this due to puberty or a lack of confidence. Hormones and becoming more mature are reasons for having middle school and high school crushes.\nDo you feel your heart pounding and your face turning beet-red when the curly-haired girl sits next to you in class? Do you keep trying to talk to this boy you really like next to your lockers? (if they are next to each other). Are you daydreaming about this person every day in many classes? Do you try to flirt with them during break or tell funny jokes? Do you feel overjoyed if you're in the same class as them? If so, you probably have a crush on this person.\nYou could get into a moderately serious relationship with your crush if they like you back, or you could focus on other things and talk about your feelings if they don't like you back/you are rejected by them." ]

[ "Lay your paper out so that all the corners are aligned. You'll want to use between 8 and 13 sheets per pompom, depending on how thick the paper is. The thinner the paper, the more sheets you should use. <img> Fold your paper like a fan. To do so, fold the edge of the paper in about one inch. Then, flip over the entire stack of paper and do the same thing on the other side. Repeat until you have one long strip of paper with accordion folds. <img> Cut down the edges. Once the paper is folded, trim the edges. For soft, feminine looking pompoms, round the corners. For more dramatic pompoms, cut them to a point. \nDon't worry if you don't get the cuts as perfect as you'd like. While shaping the edges of the paper will definitely have an effect on the shape of the pompoms, you will not be able to notice small details or mistakes once they have been folded out. <img> Cut off 9 to 10 inches (22.9 to 25.4 cm) of floral wire. Bend it in half. <img> Slide the wire onto the paper. It should be placed as close to the center of the paper as possible. Twist the ends of the wire together to keep it in place.\nDon't worry about making the wire super tight. In fact, keeping the wire slightly looser will make it easier to fan out the pompom. <img> Bend the excess wire to make a loop. Then, thread the fishing line through the wire and tie a knot. Be sure that there is plenty of fishing line hanging out—you will use this to hang the pompom later. <img> Fluff out the pompom. Slowly lift the top sheet of paper until it is standing straight up. Repeat with the first four layers, then flip the pompom over and repeat. Continue until all the paper is fluffed out.\nUse gentle, slow movements to do this, or you risk ripping the paper. To push each piece up as far as possible, try running your first and index fingers along the accordion folds from the outside of the pompom to the middle. <img> Hang the pompom by sticking a tack through the fishing wire. Enjoy your new decoration! <img> ", "Cut a circle out of the cardboard. The size of the circle is completely up to you—small circles will make small pompoms, and bigger circles will make bigger pompoms. <img> Cut the cardboard circle in half. You should have two identical half circles. <img> Plan the honeycomb paper. Cut down the paper you are going to use so that it is significantly smaller than your sheet of scrap paper. Then, place one sheet of paper flat on top of the scrap piece. <img> Plan the glue lines. Keeping it flat on the scrap paper, evenly divide the honeycomb paper into 4 to 8 sections (depending on how large your paper is). Instead of folding the honeycomb paper, draw lines on the scrap paper where each fold would be. Alternate mark colors every other line.\nIf you do not have scrap paper, you can make these marks directly on your paper, using a pencil or thin pen.\nIf you are using a piece of paper that is 4.25\"x5.5\" (half of an 8.5\"x11\" piece of paper), consider spacing your lines between 1 1/4 and 1 3/4 inches apart. <img> Pick a line color. Keeping your honeycomb paper flat on the scrap paper, run the glue stick vertically across the honeycomb paper where you have made marks in that color.\nIf you are using a thin paper, such as tissue paper, hold it firmly and gently work your glue stick from the middle of the paper to the edges to prevent tearing. <img> Place another piece of paper on top of the paper you just glued. Rub firmly to make sure it sticks. <img> Apply glue. Apply glue along the lines of the opposite color as last time. Place another piece of tissue paper on top and rub across to ensure the glue sticks. <img> Repeat the above process with 30 to 40 sheets of paper. Be sure that you alternate glue lines between each sheet to continue the honeycomb effect.\nFor a multi-colored pompom, change the color of your paper halfway through the gluing process.\nFor a stripe pattern, change the color of your paper every 5 sheets or so. <img> Cut the honeycomb paper. When you're done gluing sheets of paper, place one of the semicircles on top of the paper and trace loosely around it. Then, cut out the paper so that it is very slightly larger than the cardboard. <img> Glue the cardboard semicircles onto your honeycomb paper. Once you have cut out the honeycomb paper, glue one piece of cardboard onto each side. <img> Use the needle and thread. To ensure a uniform effect, pull the threaded needle at the top corner of your semicircle. Tie a loose knot, cut the thread, and repeat on the bottom corner.\nBe sure you've left some slack in your knots, or the pompom will not open. \nLeave the thread long on one end—you can use this to hang the pompom up later. <img> Hold the cardboard on both ends. Pull apart slowly and round into a ball. The honeycomb pattern should become more apparent as you open up the pompom. <img> Glue the cardboard pieces together. This will allow the pompom to hold the spherical shape. <img> Hang. Enjoy your new decorations! <img> ", "Cut the paper into small squares. This will help you avoid lopsided flowers.\nThe size of the squares depends entirely on the size of your gift. If the gift is small, You will need to make smaller squares. However, if the gift is large you may prefer to make the biggest squares possible! <img> Stack your squares. You should have 4 squares per flower. <img> Fold the stack in half twice. Your stack should now have 16 layers. <img> Fold the stack diagonally to create a triangle. Then, repeat so you have an even smaller triangle. <img> Fold the sides of the triangle up. The result should be an even smaller triangle. <img> Using the folded edge as the point, draw a half oval onto the widest part of the triangle. It should span from edge to edge. <img> Cut along the line. Discard the top of the triangle. <img> Open the tissue paper. Stack 8 layers so that the petals are slightly offset to make a flower. To make a fully round pompom, stack all 16 layers. <img> Fold the stack in half. Punch a hole in the center. Then, string some ribbon or twine through the hole. <img> Open the flower and flatten the petals. Then, slowly fluff the petals out to create a flower effect. For a flower, leave the last piece flat. For a pompom, fluff 8 sheets up and the other 8 down. <img> Tie on top of a gift. Use the twine or ribbon to tie around your gift. <img> Finished. <img> " ]

[ "Apply hydrogen peroxide and direct pressure to encourage the blood to clot. Soak a clean tissue or washcloth in hydrogen peroxide, then apply gentle but firm pressure to the bleeding zit. The pressure will encourage the blood to form a clot, while the hydrogen peroxide will kill any bacteria coming out of the zit. This will prevent your acne outbreak from spreading to the surrounding skin.\nNote that hydrogen peroxide can dry out your skin, so make sure to moisturize once the bleeding has stopped. <img> Use an ice pack. Cold decreases blood flow to an area (whereas applying heat increases blood flow). If direct pressure alone does not stem the bleeding, try applying pressure with an ice pack. Place ice in a clean towel or washcloth and hold it to the bleeding source for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the bleeding stops.\nMake sure the towel is clean to avoid the risk of introducing bacteria into your broken skin. <img> Treat the bleeding with an astringent. Astringents like skin toner or witch hazel can be used both to tighten skin and to slow down bleeding. If you don’t have an astringent skin product around the house, you can use vinegar from your pantry. Soak a cotton swab or clean washcloth in the astringent and press it firmly against the blood source. With enough time, it should shrink the blood vessels and stop the flow of blood. <img> Use a styptic pencil to stop stubborn bleeding. Styptic pencils are antiseptic tools that are used to stop bleeding from small scrapes and cuts quickly and cleanly. They coat the area with alum or silver nitrate, stemming blood flow almost immediately. The waxy material also creates a thin barrier over the damaged skin, protecting it from bacteria and infection. You can buy a styptic pencil at the pharmacy or online.\nWet the styptic pencil, and apply it with gentle pressure to the zit until it stops bleeding. <img> Press a potato slice against the bleeding source. Research has shown that potatoes are a fast and effective way to stop bleeding from small cuts and scrapes. The starch soaks up water and blood plasma, and encourages the blood to clot quickly. <img> Apply benzoyl peroxide to both clear up the zit and stop bleeding. Soak a cotton swab or tissue with benzoyl peroxide and apply direct pressure to the pimple. It will both encourage the bleeding to stop and attack the bacteria that causes zits in the first place. This will help prevent the spread of your outbreak to the rest of your skin.\nBenzoyl peroxide can dry the skin out slightly, so be sure to apply moisturizer after washing it off. <img> Visit your doctor if the bleeding doesn't stop. Bleeding from a minor source, such as a zit, should stop within one to nine minutes. If a minor wound bleeds more than that, it might indicate anemia or another blood clotting disease. Your doctor will be able to diagnose and address any underlying health problems that might contribute to your bleeding. <img> ", "Resist the urge to pop your pimples. It’s tempting to just get the offending pus out of your skin, but you should leave pimple popping to medical experts using professional tools. When you pop a pimple, the bacteria that oozes out can get into the pores in the surrounding skin, actually spreading acne to otherwise healthy skin. You might also cause more bleeding, which is never a good thing!\nA pimple should run its course within three to seven days, so just medicate it with topical treatments and wait it out.\nThink about it this way: you probably want to get rid of the zit because you don't like the way it looks. But a zit is temporary. Popping it can cause scarring — and you probably won't like the way that looks, either, but the difference is the scarring is permanent. It's better to just wait out the pimple and allow it to clear up rather than risk permanently marring your skin. <img> Continue using benzoyl peroxide. Most acne treatments on the market make use of it, so you can find it in a wide variety of styles. Depending on your preference, you can use benzoyl peroxide as a lotion, gel, cleanser, cream, or face wash. It kills off the bacteria that causes acne outbreaks and removes excess oil and dead skin cells from the surface of the skin.\nBe careful not to get it on your clothing, as it can discolor dyed cloth. <img> Try applying salicylic acid to your skin. The products on the market that contain salicylic acid come in a wide variety of strengths, so look at the packaging to determine which product will be best for you. Like benzoyl peroxide, it comes in a variety of application styles: medicated wipes or pads, creams, gels, cleansers and face washes, and even shampoos.\nSalicylic acid can cause skin irritation when you first start using it, so apply a small amount for a few days. You can gradually increase your usage as your skin adjusts to the product.\nThese products tend to dry out the skin. Make sure you moisturize regularly, and decrease your usage if the dryness gets out of hand.\nDon’t use products with salicylic acid if you have any open or broken pimples on your face. <img> Try Retin-A (tretinoin). This is a topical cream that must be prescribed by your doctor or dermatologist. Wash your hands before and after applying Retin-A, then wash your face with a gentle cleanser. Wait about 20 to 30 minutes, then apply the cream — if your skin is not try, the Retin-A may irritate it. Apply a thin layer to the acne lesions before bedtime or in the evening. Avoid the eyes, ears, and mouth.\nRetin-A can make your skin sensitive to sunlight, so make sure you limit exposure and wear sunscreen and protective clothing if you go outside. Never apply to sunburned skin.\nConsult your doctor if you are planning on getting pregnant. <img> Be gentle when washing your face. Many people mistakenly think that scrubbing at their skin will help clean and treat the skin more quickly. In fact, vigorous scrubbing usually makes acne worse. It irritates the skin, and can weaken its natural defenses against bacteria and infection.\nChoose a gentle cleanser like Cetaphil or Noxzema. These soaps will help keep the skin moist and clean. The best way to massage to soap into the skin for cleaning is with you hands and fingers. Make sure you wash your hands before applying the soap. <img> Use products as directed. If a product tells you to use it twice daily, don’t assume that using it four times a day will be twice as effective. In fact, the opposite might be true: by upsetting the balance of your skin, you can cause redness, dryness, and irritation that keeps your skin unhealthy and uncomfortable.\nDon’t give up on treatment too quickly! Many treatments take a long time to have a positive effect on unhealthy skin, so follow the instructions and be patient. Experts recommend waiting at least six to12 weeks before deciding a treatment doesn’t work for you. <img> " ]

[ "Read the instructions on the front panel. Every pinball machine has a different way to rack up points. Find the instructions cars near in the front left of the machine and read over how to get bonuses and accumulate points while you play.\nCompare any symbols on the instruction card to the symbols inside the machine. Make sure you understand what each instruction is referencing. <img> Study the layout of the machine. Pinball machines have a busy interior that may seem overwhelming at first, but many machines have similar structures. Pay attention to where the components are that will earn you points and will move the ball. <img> Pull the plunger to release the ball. The plunger is the handle at the front of the machine that you pull and release to shoot the ball into the machine. Use it whenever you start your pinball game or when you lose the ball. <img> Use the flippers to hit and shoot the ball. The flippers are the paddles at the bottom of the machine that you use to hit the ball. The buttons for the flippers are typically found on the left and right sides of the machine.\nCheck to see if you only have 2 flippers, or if there are additional flippers near the top of the machine. <img> Use the bumpers to get points and bounce the ball. Bumpers are found throughout the entire machine and will bounce the ball away. Common places for bumpers are at the top of the machine and just above the bottom flippers. <img> Watch the display on top to see what to aim for next. The display will display goals and your current score. Check the display often when you have control of the ball so you know the next goal for your machine.\nSome pinball machines will tell a story the longer you play them. Tune into the screen so you don’t miss anything.\nMake sure you have control of the ball when you check the screen. You don’t want to lose a ball because you looked away.\nListen to sound cues as well. Many times a voice will tell you what you should shoot at next. <img> ", "Only use one flipper at a time. When you try to use both flippers, you’re more likely to miss the ball. Instead, look at the direction the ball is coming and only use the closest flipper. If the ball is on the left use the left flipper, and use the right flipper if the ball is falling down the right.\nUse both flippers only if the ball is falling directly down the middle. Nudge the machine slightly to move the ball into safety.\nAnticipate the ball’s movements instead of reacting to it. Reacting to the ball will only make you have less control. <img> Rest the ball on the flippers to slow the ball down. When the ball comes down, activate the nearest flipper and let the ball rest in the pocket made by the path and flipper. When you’re ready to shoot the ball, let the flipper fall so the ball rolls.\nActivate the flippers slowly so you don’t accidentally hit the ball back up into the machine.\nIf you’re able to slow down and think about your next move, you’ll be able to make your balls last longer and get a higher score. <img> Learn where the ball goes with different parts of the flipper. After you’ve stopped the ball, try hitting it on different places with the flipper. For example, let the ball get closer to the end of the flipper before activating it to hit the opposite side of the machine. This is known as a forehand hit.\nEach pinball machine will play differently, even if they’re the same game. Take the first ball of each game to learn the machine and how it shoots. <img> Practice backhand shots by hitting the ball near the top of the flipper. Rather than letting the ball roll down the flipper, hit it immediately to aim for a spot on the same side of the machine as the flipper. Practice hitting the ball a few times to see where the ball goes when you shoot it.\nFor example, if you’re using the right flipper, hitting the ball near the top of the flipper will make it go right. <img> ", "Nudge the machine to change the ball’s course. If you notice the ball falling where you can’t capture it, such as straight down the middle or on either side, push the whole pinball machine to the side to change the ball’s direction. A light nudge every now and then will help you play longer and get a high score.\nIf you nudge the machine too hard or multiple times, the machine may freeze and you’ll lose your ball. This is known as a “tilt.” <img> Save the ball by quickly hitting each flipper. When the ball is falling near the middle of the machine, quickly alternate between the 2 flippers so the ball bounces between them. Many players will do this naturally, but practice doing this with more control.\nThis technique is often referred to as the “slap save.” <img> Pass the ball from one flipper to the other. Catch the ball with either the right or left flipper. Lightly hit the flipper so the ball bounces over to the opposite side. Activate the opposite flipper to catch the ball on the other side.\nIf the ball is coming down the machine fast, let it bounce off the flippers without activating them to slow it down and gain more control. <img> Stop the ball by hitting it as the flipper is at the top of its movement. Time your hit so the flipper stops moving just as the ball hits it. This will cause the ball to immediately slow down and get trapped so you have control again. This technique is known as the “flip catch.”\nThis technique will take practice and timing. Don’t be discouraging if your ball bounces back up out of control the first few times you try it. <img> " ]

Punch holes on each end and thread a piece of string or a shoelace through them. This will hold your sunglasses in place. <img> Test your sunglasses. Notice how little sunlight gets in your eyes. These sunglasses work similar to the way the blinds on your windows at home do. <img> ", "Make a template. Take apart a pair of cheap sunglasses and use the parts to create a template for your cardboard sunglasses. An easy way to do this is to lay each part on a photocopier and make a copy.\nAlternatively, you can try to trace out the shapes of the parts using pencil and paper..\nCut out each part of the sunglasses from your paper template, leaving room to attach the earpieces...\nMake sure to include eye-holes in the area where they should be present. <img> Attach the earpieces. Using glue, attach the arms to the frame. Be careful not to use too much glue, or it might soak the cardboard and make it too soft. <img> Cut the lenses. On a sheet of acetate, use the cut-outs you made earlier when you cut the eye-holes to trace out the shapes of the lenses. Cut the shapes of the lenses out of the acetate sheet, leaving a little extra around the edges.\nAcetate is a type of plastic. The type used here comes in sheets and is used as a thin plastic over in photo albums or presentation booklets. You can buy it at any office supply or craft store. <img> Paint the cardboard frame. Using any color you like, paint the frame. Acrylic paint is best for this, but if you don't have any, watercolors will do. <img> Glue on the lenses. Using a little glue, attach the acetate cut-outs to the frame. Again, you don't want to be heavy handed with the glue or you'll risk softening the cardboard too much. <img> ", "Melt some plastic.

Take apart a pair of cheap sunglasses and use the parts to create a template for your wooden sunglasses. An easy way to do this is to lay each part on a photocopier and make a copy.\nAlternatively, you can try to trace out the shapes of the parts using pencil and paper.\nCut out each part of the sunglasses from your paper template.\nAlso keep the lenses from the cheap sunglasses to use in your new wooden pair. Remove them by pushing them gently out. <img> Attach each shape to pre-cut blocks of wood. Each block of wood should be approximately the length of the cheap sunglasses. Don't worry about depth, as you'll need a margin of error. <img> Cut away the shape of the sunglasses. It's quickest to use a scroll saw or some other powered saw for this. However, you can use a coping saw to do it by hand. It will take longer, however.\nIf you're using a scroll saw, try not to make sharp turns continuously—just cut one angle and then cut another angle separately. You may find that backing out of your current cut and approaching from another angle is helpful when you're cutting fine turns or small details. <img> Fit the lenses. Place the lenses on top of the openings where they should go and trace their shape with a sharp pencil. Use a drum sander attachment in a drill press to sand near, but not over the lines you just traced. You could also probably do this with a rotary tool with a drum sander attached. The reason you are doing this is to leave a groove for the lenses to sit. <img> Remove excess wood and shape the frame.. With a wood chisel, cut away the excess wood from the back of the frame. Make sure you don't cut too much away. Next, observe the curvature of the original frame, and attempt to copy it on your wooden one. You can use a drum sander attachment on a drill press to do this, or a rotary tool with the appropriate attachment.\nAt this time, you'll also want to sand down the frame and the earpieces until they are smooth. You can do this using a combination of a rotary tool, wood files, and sandpaper. <img> Make the hinges to attach the earpieces. For this, you can cut away the hinges from the cheap sunglasses you've been using. You can also cannibalize the hinges from another pair that no one wants.\nCut away little cavities approximately in the shape of your hinges in the frame and earpieces.\nThen glue the hinges into place. You'll need to use clamps to hold them in place while the glue sets. Leave the clamps on for about an hour.\nAttach the earpieces to the frame using the screws that came with the hinges. <img> Apply mineral oil and buff with beeswax. With a piece of cloth, apply a coat of mineral oil to the wooden frame. This is helpful because of the amount of time the frame will be in contact with the skin. Finally, buff the frame with beeswax for a smooth finish. <img> Pop the lenses into the frames. The final step is to snap in the lenses for the last time. Don't force them in, or you might break them. Simply push gently until the lenses pop into position. <img> " ]

[ "Cull your existing collection. If you’ve been in business a long time already, you might have a sizable stash of business cards that need to get organized. Before you start organizing the ones you may still find useful, save time by going through your cards and disposing of all the ones that might not be useful anymore.\nGet rid of business cards you don’t recognize. They won’t do you any good.\nGet rid of business cards that advertise defunct services or companies.\nSave really nostalgic cards (e.g. the card for the restaurant where you got engaged), but set them aside. <img> Decide how you want the cards to be organized. You can simply put the cards in alphabetical order by name or company, if that seems most useful to you. You also might consider grouping them by event or industry, and then alphabetizing them within those parameters. Experiment until you find a system that feels right for you, then stick to it. <img> Copy out a small collection. If you have just a few business cards and you don't want to digitize them, it’s possible to avoid using an app to organize them. Get all their information into one place by writing out their information into a reference place you’ll use.\nIf you like using a paper address book, you can transfer your cards’ information into that.\nYou can also type the information straight into the Contacts feature on your computer. <img> Store useful cards. Once you’ve made sure their information is easily accessible, it’s time to figure out what to do with the business cards. The “old-fashioned” habit of keeping useful cards, even if you just use a rubber band in your desk drawer, is a good backup for computerized information.\nA Rolodex is easy to add and subtract cards from, and its rotating motion makes it easy to scan through cards. However, it is big and bulky, and may add an unintentionally retro look to your desk.\nA business card holder is attractive and compact, with individual clear sleeves to hold each business card. Avoid having to reorganize the whole thing every time you add a new card by leaving several empty slots in each alphabetical section.\nYou can also use drawer dividers to help keep your business cards divided in your desk. <img> ", "Make sure your digital contacts are on point. If you decide to import your business cards so they mesh seamlessly with your digital contacts, you’ll want to make sure that both pools are freshly organized and updated. Before uploading your business cards, take the opportunity to examine your existing contact list and remove any outdated ones.\nIf you don’t have a way to organize your digital contacts yet, Google Contacts is often recommended, because it’s free, reliable, and works across a variety of operating systems. <img> Pick an app. There are many apps available for tablets and smartphones that will scan a business card and automatically upload its information to your contacts. You can’t use the app while in the middle of an event, obviously, but you can use it in your hotel room after you’re finished networking for the day. Here are a few popular options--they’re free or a few dollars at most:\nCamcard scans physical cards and allows you to swap “e-cards” with other users.\nWorldcard automatically sorts cards, and is available in Japanese, Chinese, and Korean versions as well.\nScanBizCards allows you to keep a clear version of the image after you’ve noted its information. <img> Consider a card scanner. If you find yourself sorting through dozens of business cards after every event, a separately-purchased business card scanner might make your life a bit faster. Card Scan is a popular option. However, smartphone apps can do the same job, so if you’re not working with an intimidating volume of cards, this separate purchase might not be necessary. <img> Upload cards and contacts promptly. When you return from a business lunch, trade show or meeting, immediately put the business cards you received in a safe and memorable place. When you have time, grab the business cards that have piled up in your desk drawer, and import them. Try to do this on a consistent schedule--once a day or week, for example. <img> Take digital notes. Just like you write on a physical business card, you should be able to add additional notes in a business card app. Type out any information that wasn't on the card: what the card’s owner does, what information or prospects they offered, when you met them, and so on. Be detailed: you’re not doing this on the spot, so you can take your time.\nCopy your written notes out.\nIf you’ve looked up the person since you met them, you can also expand with additional research. <img> Create a rating system. Organize your contacts further by reflecting on how often you expect to write to or work with them. Split them into groups: reliable business contacts, potential business contacts, and those that you’ll probably never talk to again. Use a system you won’t forget so that you can categorize your contacts.\nSome apps include a feature where you can make notes like this.\nYou could use a numbering system or a green, yellow and red stoplight system, depending on your app. <img> Arrange the contacts appropriately. Depending on your card or contacts app, you will have a lot of choices about the ways you can organize contacts. (You will also probably be able to tag contacts to sort them into different groups, meaning you can organize their information in many different ways.) Here are some ideas on how to put contacts in order:\nAlphabetize by last name.\nCategorize by alphabetical order of name or company.\nCity where you met.\nCategory of industry. <img> ", "Have your own cards handy. In most cases, people don’t just hand each other business cards--they trade them. Facilitate a business card swap by keeping your own cards with you in professional settings like meetings and trade shows, but also in your everyday life. You never know when you’re going to meet a new contact.\nIf you’re having trouble keeping your cards neat, try designating a special pocket or folder for them. A rubber band also works, in a pinch.\nNever just hand over your card without asking--this can be seen as pushy. Instead, say something like “I’d really like to talk to you more about what you do. Would you like to exchange cards?” <img> Read the card when you receive it. Examining the business card for a second or two is a good way to make note of important information about a new contact. If you struggle with remembering names, use cards as a tool to connect names to faces. The person's title is usually printed on a business card, too. This is another clue about who they are and what they do. <img> Have a place to put new business cards. If you carry a notebook or bag with you to meetings, designate a place in it for the business cards of new contacts. Or, use the second pocket on your own business card carrier to collect cards you receive.\nDon't stick cards in your notes, or stuff them in a pocket. They might easily go missing, or even go through the wash.\nIf you’re traveling and expect to receive a lot of business cards, you can stash them in a Ziploc bag in your hotel or briefcase to keep them neat and dry.\nMake sure the place you put new business cards is not the place you keep your own cards. You don’t want to mix them up.\nWherever you put the cards right now is not a permanent place--remember that you’ll be removing and organizing them later. <img> Handwrite notes. Whenever you get a new business card, write down the name of the place where you met within a few days of meeting. This way, you won’t forget. Also, jot a brief note about what you talked about. Then when you contact the person later, you can remind them of the details of your conversation.\nIf the card is glossy and you can’t write on it with a normal pen, try sticking a post-it to the card instead. <img> " ]

You are welcome to bring your own wheelchair to use at the park, but they are also available for rent from the Stroller and Wheelchair Shop just inside the main entrance. The availability is limited. Wheelchairs cannot be reserved in advance and are rented on a first-come, first-served basis.\nYou will likely be more comfortable in your own wheelchair if you have one. If you don’t usually use a wheelchair, but think you would be more comfortable having one for a full day at the park, or if you would rather not transport yours to Disney, arrive early to ensure there is a wheelchair available for you to rent.\nThe wheelchair cannot leave the park, so you will need to return it before you leave the park for the day.\nWheelchairs rent for $12/day, or a reduced rate of $10/day for several days. This reduced rate may not be offered during peak times.\nKeep your receipt and show it at the office when you are picking up a wheelchair for a multiple day rental.\nComplimentary wheelchairs are available to help guest get from the disabled parking area to the wheelchair rental office. <img> Ride around in an Electronic Conveyance Vehicle (ECV). ECVs are motorized, four-wheeled vehicles available for rent at Disney World through the Wheelchair Rental Office. The rate for renting an ECV is $50/day. Walt Disney World also requires a $20 deposit, which they will refund when you return the ECV to the rental location before the park closes.\nA limited number of ECVs are available at the park. Disney does not take reservations in advance, so it is a good idea to arrive early for the best chances of having an ECV available to rent. <img> Grab a Guide for Guests with Disabilities. These are available online or at the Guest Relations office. Each attraction at Disney World differs in how they are able to accommodate guests with mobility disabilities. The Guide for Guests with Disabilities will point out the different options for accessing each attraction at the park. <img> ", "Visit in the off-season. When planning your trip, consider going between Thanksgiving and December holidays. The holiday decorations will make the park even more beautiful and the lines will be much shorter than peak season, allowing you to more easily access all of the attractions with less wait time.\nThe park closes a little earlier during this time, so plan on being there first thing in the morning. <img> Bring your own food and snacks. There is plenty of food available at Disney World, but the cost and long lines could put some stress on your vacation and your wallet. The park allows you to bring your own food, and if you have a wheelchair or ECV, it will be easy to carry some provisions to keep you going.\nDon’t bring alcoholic beverages, which will not be admitted.\nIf you do want a treat, try a fresh-baked cookie from Main Street Bakery. <img> Schedule breaks and listen to your body. You may feel like you need to get everything in while you are at Disney world. This can put a lot of pressure on you and potentially make the trip more exhausting than fun. Choose the attractions you really want to experience and put those first on the list. If you are feeling tired, take a break. Even consider going back to your hotel for some rest in the afternoon and returning in the evening for more fun.\nYou can even take a break at the park by visiting an attraction like Mickey’s PhilHarMagic 3D movie. This is a 13-minute film which allows you to be indoors and relaxing for a little movie break. <img> Take a little bit of Disney home with you. A vacation is rarely complete without a good souvenir. Visit the shops and choose a gift for yourself to remind you of the great time you had on vacation. You can even make personalized mouse ears at The Chapeau on Main Street. <img> ", "Pick up a Disability Access Service (DAS) card to avoid long waits in line. These are available at the Guest Services office at the main entrance of the park. The DAS card is meant to assist people who cannot wait in line for a long amount of time. The card allows guests with disabilities to receive a return time for an attraction they would like to visit.\nIn order to receive the card, you must register in the Guest Relations office and have your picture taken.\nAs soon as the guest finishes one ride, they can receive a return time for another attraction.\nRetrieve your return time at Guest Relations kiosks placed throughout the park.\nReturn to the attraction at your assigned time for immediate access to the ride. <img> Enter some rides through the Auxiliary Entrance. This is a separate entrance for people with mobility disabilities and up to five of their friends. These entrances are more convenient and usable for people in wheelchairs. <img> Have a friend help you out of your chair and onto the ride. It is best to contact a Cast Member when you are accessing a ride, but it should be noted that they are not allowed to lift a guest out of their chair and transfer them to the ride. Make sure you have a friend with you who is capable of helping you out of your chair and onto the ride, should you need assistance. <img> Watch parades from designated viewing areas. Guest Relations can help you learn the parade times and routes, as well as pointing out designated areas for viewing the parade from a wheelchair. These areas are limited in space and fill on a first come, first serve basis. Arrive early to secure a good spot to view the parade. <img> " ]

[ "Determine whether or not your annuity is transferable. If your annuity is not transferable, then you cannot sell it under any circumstances. Check your contract to see if it is transferable. If you are trying to get immediate funds, list your nontransferable annuity as an asset or form of income and apply for a bank loan. <img> Determine if your annuity is a structured settlement. Check your contract or consult your accountant to learn about the laws in your state. Most states have laws that protect people trying to sell their structured annuity. If your state has a Structured Settlement Protection Act, your transaction will have to be approved by a state court. The Periodic Payment Settlement Act protects those who received a cash sum as a result of personal injury and wrongful death lawsuits, from spending the awarded money too quickly, which may then force them to turn to public assistance to meet their needs.\nDon’t try to sell a structured annuity by yourself, especially if you are living in a state that does not have a structured annuity protection law. Talk to a trusted broker and attorney before you proceed. <img> Evaluate your annuity. Before you shop around for annuity buyers, find out what the resale value of your annuity is. Hire an accountant if you are unclear on the details of your investment and its relative worth. Keep in mind that selling your annuity always result in your receiving a lower amount of money from your annuity. You will get a lump-sum payment that is adjusted with a discount rate, meaning that you'll get about 8 to 14 percent less than you would if you waited for the payments. <img> Understand the tax implications of selling your annuity. All annuities offer tax-deferral from the time of your initial investment. Your distributions, however, are taxable. This means that your annuity grows tax-free in the accumulation phase, but is taxed as distributions are made to you. These payments are taxed as ordinary income.\nGains made by selling your annuity before it matures are taxable as ordinary income. However, losses on the sale are not tax-deductible as investment losses.\nIf you withdraw from an annuity before age 59.5, you are also charged a 10% tax penalty. However, exceptions are made in various cases, such as the death or disability of the annuity holder.\nYou can also trade your annuity for another qualified annuity contract without paying taxes on the first annuity. These \"1035\" exchanges can be tricky, so check with a tax accountant or investment adviser before proceeding. <img> ", "Search for potential annuity buyers. Your best source for locating a potential buyers is the insurance agent that first sold you the annuity. They understand the market well and will likely have contacts for this sort of transaction. Additionally, they may also charge you a reduced commission for finding a buyer, as you already paid them a commission when you purchased the annuity. Alternately, you can search for an annuity buyer online. Before working with any of these companies, make sure that they:\nHave positive, independent reviews of their services.\nHave excellent customer service.\nCan make a competitive offer for your annuity.\nAre licensed to conduct business and follow all appropriate regulations.\nCommunicate timelines and figures in a transparent way.\nRecommend that you first consult with a financial professional before selling.\nTry checking with the Better Business Bureau (BBB) to identify whether or not the company is reputable. Companies with poor ratings from the BBB should be avoided.\nSome reputable buyers of annuities include JG Wentworth, Catalina Structured Funding, Peachtree Financial, and Stone Street Capital. These companies can be contacted by phone or through their respective websites. <img> Hire a broker. If you are having trouble finding potential buyers, or if you can't find the price you think is reasonable, hire a broker. You’ll have to pay a brokerage fee, but you may stand to gain from the expertise of the broker's negotiations. Choose your broker carefully. Check their certifications to ensure that they are licensed to negotiate the sort of sale you want to make.\nAsk the broker you want to hire for a quote. If they quote you a percentage, calculate it before you agree.\nLook up the name of a broker you haven't worked with before. Any violations or complaints they have might be online. <img> Get offers for your annuity. Try to obtain offers from at least five companies before you choose. When you find companies online, use their quote form to get a free quote from them. A quote is not necessarily the amount you would receive, and it may not include the fee that may be deducted when a settlement is reached.\nWhen you fill out the free quote form, give them only the standard information. Your name, email address and the name of your annuity should be the only information they ask for.\nDo not give your social security number, bank information, or pay any fees to obtain a free quote.\nGive yourself as much time as you can to make the sale. A rushed sale is less likely to get you a good deal. <img> Pick the best offer. Getting an offer of about 80% of the value of your annuity would be considered a good deal. Do not take a deal in which your buyer expects you to pay fees out of pocket before a settlement is agreed upon. Once you have finalized your agreement, all agreed upon court costs, legal fees and commissions should be deducted from the final settlement. <img> Gather your paperwork. To sell your annuity, you will need copies of your original annuity application and your annuity policy. If you are already collecting on your annuity, you will need your most recent disbursement check and tax return. If you have a settlement agreement, you will need a copy of that. Bring your valid government issued id, such as a passport or driver's license, and a written declaration that you are selling your annuity of your own free will.\nGather any other documentation your buyer requires, such as a copy of a court judgment for a structured annuity, or copies of any release agreements. <img> ", "Decide what type of funding you are trying to get from your sale. Investigate the various ways annuity buyouts are made. Remember that no matter what kind of deal you make, the buyer will get the better deal in the long term. You will likely be offered anywhere from 60% to 85% of the value of your annuity. With this in mind, consider alternatives to selling your annuity.\nIf you are just selling your annuity to free up some cash, taking out a loan might better serve your purposes. <img> Consider selling as a straight purchase. If you sell as a straight purchase, the buyer will give you one lump-sum payment for your annuity. You will not go on to collect future payments. Choose to sell as a straight purchase if you are trying to get the largest immediate sum possible, or if you have determined that your annuity is not serving its purpose.\nIf you sell an annuity contract, you will have to pay ordinary income tax on your annuity's earnings. <img> Consider selling as a partial purchase. In this case, the buyer purchases your immediate annuity payments for a set period. At the end of that time, you once again collect your annuity payments as scheduled. Consider this option if you have a temporary shortage of cash, but would like to continue investing in your retirement. <img> Consider selling as a reverse purchase. Sell several years of your annuity. For example, if you are now receiving $1,000 per month for the next 15 years, sell your payments from years 5 through 10 only. You will get a lump sum for those years, but still receive your current payments up through year 4. You will then receive no monthly payments in years 5 through 10, but they will resume in years 11 through 15.\nKnow that this will result in a lower overall payout from your annuity. You will get the money for the sold years up front, but it will be lower than the total value of the payments from those years.\nYou also need to be sure of the value of the future payments before any deals are made.\nThis might be a good option if you need money now, but know you will be able to support yourself during an upcoming time period. <img> Consider selling as split purchases. If your buyer makes a split purchase, they will receive part of your monthly payment. If you only need $500 a month and your annuity payment is $1,000, sell half your annuity; you will get an immediate lump sum for the half you don't need, and continue to receive monthly payments of $500.\nEven though you've only sold half the annuity, you will still pay ordinary income taxes on the deferred earnings and any gains made on the sale. <img> " ]

[ "Ensure you have a well-fitting bra. For busty women, the most important starting point for a stylish outfit is finding the correct bra. It should offer full-breast coverage and give your chest shape without over-accentuating its size. Try a nude-colored bra, which helps to eliminate outlines under sheer T-shirts.\nTake a look at brands like ThirdLove, Chantelle, or Wacoal, which go up to sizes G and H and offer cute styles. <img> Try to find simple lines and silhouettes. Details like ruffles, frills, breast pockets, and ruched fabric will make your breasts seem larger. Focus on tops with clean lines that won’t call attention to your bust. <img> Pick a flattering fabric for tops or dresses. The ideal materials will be stretchy while also providing support and structure—stretch cotton or gabardine, for instance. Fabrics to generally avoid include:\nShiny or metallic materials\nRibbed knits\nStiff fabrics\nSlinky jersey <img> Select the right neckline. V-necks are often the most flattering on busty women because they lengthen the silhouette and direct the eyes downwards. Scoop necklines are also a good look for big breasts. Avoid polo, crew, cowl, and square necklines, which tend to draw attention to the bust.\nWatch out for overly deep V-necks—they may show off too much cleavage to be appropriate in certain settings. <img> Look for sleeves that won’t draw attention to your chest. Focus on tops with long sleeves that flare below the elbow, or natural shoulder sleeves (where the shoulder seam aligns with your actual shoulder). If you’re looking for a tank top, try finding one with wider straps—spaghetti straps can make your shoulders and chest appear much larger. Consider steering clear of these sleeve styles:\nSleeves that finish at the line of the bust\nDrop shoulders\nRaglan sleeves\nKimono-style sleeves <img> Size up with button-down tops. Oxford shirts can be particularly tricky for big-busted women. The key is to buy a shirt that specifically fits your breasts (which may mean bumping up a size or two).\nOxfords can be easy to style in a larger size—try tying it at the bottom, layering under sweaters or dresses, or half-tucking it in to your pants.\nAnother option is to find a tailor, who can take in the shirt around the neckline, armholes, and lower torso. <img> ", "Find an A-line skirt that balances your bust. Look for A-line styles, which flare out and help maintain a proportional silhouette. Pair a tucked-in shirt with a skirt that has a slightly lower waistline, to help lengthen your torso.\nTo accentuate your curves, try wearing a pencil skirt. <img> Combine a solid-color top with a matching bottom. Finding a dress that fits perfectly can sometimes be tricky, since busty women often wear different sizes on top and bottom. By pairing separates of the same color, you can create the cohesive look of a dress without the sizing issues.\nConsider mixing textures to add visual interest and draw attention to your bottom half—a black leather skirt with a black cotton V-neck sweater, for instance. <img> Pair boyfriend jeans with a tucked-in shirt. A wide-legged look can be great on a big-busted woman, since looser jeans or dress pants help to balance out their top half. Try pairing low-rise boyfriend jeans with a tucked-in, drapey T-shirt in a thick fabric such as terry cloth or densely woven cotton.\nSkinny jeans are not always the best option, since they can make your breasts look even larger. <img> Wear a dress that emphasizes your waistline. The best dress styles for big busts include wrap dresses, fit and flare shapes, and neat A-line silhouettes. Short hemlines can be a plus, since they pull the eyes down to the legs and away from the chest area.\nTry strategic color-blocking to achieve a cinched-waist effect without a belt or tie. <img> Throw on a blazer or jacket over your outfit. Watch out for double-breasted styles, which can sometimes add weight to your upper half. Go for narrow lapels—or ditch the lapels all together and choose a lapel-free vest or blazer.\nDon’t worry about buttoning your blazer up, which can lead to gaping and pulling. It’s stylish and work-appropriate to keep it open. <img> ", "Select a medium-length necklace. The best necklace for a big bust hangs around your throat or sternum and calls attention to the delicate line of your collarbone. Necklaces that are too long will hang off your bust instead of lying flat, while chokers draw the eyes up and make your breasts appear larger. <img> Draw attention to your legs with high heels. A pair of statement heels can make legs look longer, diverting eyes from your chest. Shoes that are sparkly or brightly colored will attract even more attention.\nIf you’d prefer not to wear heels, split-front booties offer another way to visually elongate your legs with footwear. <img> Avoid bulky and oversized scarves. Blanket scarves or scarves knitted from chunky yarn serve to add extra volume to your bust. Try thinner materials, such as a cashmere pashmina, which will lay flatter. <img> Find a belt that won’t take over your midsection. The right belt can help emphasize your waist. Watch out for too-wide styles which can have the opposite effect, erasing your waistline and overemphasizing the bust.\nTry a skinny belt paired with low-waisted pants, which highlights an hourglass figure. <img> " ]

[ "Scoop your cat’s litter box at least twice a day to reduce the smell. Create a daily schedule and scoop all litter boxes at least twice a day. Alternatively, stop and scoop a litter box anytime you happen to walk by one. Sweep up the spilled litter around each box at least once a day.\nCats have an incredible sense of smell. The overwhelming scent of urine may be one of the reasons they’re avoiding the litter box. <img> Keep your cat’s litter box clean by washing it regularly. Empty and scrub each litter box in your home at least once a week. Use hot water and unscented soap. Allow the boxes to air dry or use a towel to dry them if you need them immediately. Fill each box with fresh litter after each wash.\nYou may want to designate a specific cloth or sponge specifically for litter box cleaning and not use it for anything else.\nConsider having twice as many litter boxes as you use, so you always have a spare set when one set is being washed. <img> Make your cat more comfortable by trying a different brand of cat litter. Cat litter comes in huge varieties nowadays, including clay, newspaper, pine, corn, walnut shells, wheat, silica, and even grass. Each type and brand of litter may feel and smell different to your cat; some they may like and some they may not like. Buy small bags of several types of litter and put out one box of each type. Observe which type your cat prefers and switch to that type permanently for all your litter boxes.\nNot all types of cat litter are clumping. Read the information on the bag to determine if the litter you want clumps.\nWhile useful to you, as the litter scooper, litter box liners or bags are typically not favoured by cats.\nIf you don’t know what litter your cat prefers, try putting out multiple trays with different types of litter to see which one your cat uses the most.\nSudden changes between types of litter can confuse your cat, so it may not recognize the tray as the area where they use the bathroom. <img> Ensure there is always 1 to 2 in (2.5 to 5.1 cm) of litter in your cat’s box. Cats are picky about everything, including how much litter is in their box. Typically, cats prefer 1 to 2 in (2.5 to 5.1 cm) of litter in their box. Increase or decrease the amount of litter you’re putting in each box based on your current habits. Make sure there is an even layer of litter in each box as well.\nKeep in mind that clumping cat litter slowly reduces as you scoop. Therefore, it may be necessary to add more litter to the box during the week, between cleanings. <img> Give your cat options by providing a different kind of litter box. Just like the litter itself, litter boxes come in a huge variety. Some are covered (with holes on the top or the side), some are tiny, some are large, some have high sides, and others have low sides. Change one or more of your litter boxes to a different type to see if your cat prefers something different. For example, if you currently have litter boxes with high sides, try a couple with lower sides to see if the sides were preventing your cat from using the boxes.\nKeep in mind that covered litter boxes tend to keep the smell inside. To a cat, the smell might be overwhelming and completely off-putting.\nAny type of reusable, washable box or bin will work as a litter box. You do not need to only buy boxes or bins marketed as litter boxes.\nOlder cats that have arthritis may have trouble getting into litter boxes that have trays with tall sides. Try using a shallower and larger tray, such as an oil drip pan, so it’s easier for the cat to squat and pee inside of it. <img> Make sure you have 1 more litter box than you have cats. For example, if you have 2 cats, you should have 3 litter boxes. If you have less than the recommended number of boxes, your cats may not be sharing nicely, especially if you’ve put all the boxes in the same location.\nAvoid putting all your litter boxes in the same place.\nIf you have a multi-level home, put at least one box on each level. <img> Keep your cats calm and cooperative with a pheromone diffuser. Synthetic cat pheromones come in spray bottles and plug-in diffusers. When used, humans won’t smell anything, but cats will smell a calming and relaxing scent. The spray can be used in specific areas, as needed. Whereas, the diffuser can be plugged into an outlet in a room frequented by your cats.\nSynthetic pheromones are sold at vet clinics and pet stores. If you’re unsure which one to purchase, as your vet for advice. <img> ", "Figure out if recent changes are stressing your cat. Think about what may have happened in your home during the period your cat stopped using their litter box. For example, did you move, did someone move in or out, did you get a new pet or did an existing pet leave, did you renovate or rearrange a room, did you have a baby, or did you change your work hours? Any of these events may have caused your cat to become stressed and anxious, which may have caused them to stop using their litter box. You may need to retrain your cat with the litter box if you determine this is the cause.\nYou may also want to seek the advice of your vet for other ideas on how to help your cat in these situations. For example, your vet may prescribe anti-anxiety medication for your cat.\nIf it is at all possible, avoid sudden changes to major aspects of your household. Cats are creatures of habit and are happier when things stay the same.\nYou can use pheromone diffusers or food supplements to help reduce your cat’s stress and make them feel more relaxed. <img> Provide a separate litter box for any cats being harassed by other cats. Even cats who appear to be getting along may be stressed or anxious about their cat roommates. This stress and anxiety may be what’s causing one or more of your cats to stop using the litter box. Watch each cat as it uses the litter box. Check if they’re being harassed or chased away by another cat. Change the litter box locations if you see this happening. Block off certain areas of your home as safe spots for the harassed cat, where they can go to the litter box without being bothered.\nCats in multiple cat households may stop using the litter box because it’s located in a space they believe ‘belongs’ to another cat.\nCats in multiple cat households are also more likely to urine mark as a means to identify their territory. <img> Put all litter boxes in low-traffic areas of your home. Make sure they’re not located in a room that’s frequently closed off; your cat needs to be able to get to the litter box 24/7. Spread out your litter boxes if you have more than 1 cat, as they may each prefer a different location to do their business.\nBathrooms, basements, closets, low traffic hallways, porches, laundry rooms, or mudrooms are all great spots for a litter box, as long as your cat can always get to those locations. <img> Clean up all cat urine immediately to prevent further accidents. The smell of urine may attract your cat (or another cat) to continue to use the area improperly. Clean the area where they peed with a specialized product made specifically for cleaning cat urine. These types of products contain special enzymes that neutralize the smell of urine (and ammonia). Read the instructions on the bottle for detailed steps on how to use the cleaner properly.\nCat urine enzyme-based cleaning products can be found at any pet store or online. <img> Retrain your cat to use the litter box to correct the problem. Put your cat in a small room or pen with a litter box, bed, toys, food, and water. The area should be small enough that your cat will have no choice but to pee in the litter box. Only allow it out of the room or pen when you can supervise. If you see your cat heading towards an area where it's peed before, carry your cat and put it in its litter box. You may need to do this for several weeks before your cat is successfully retrained.\nIf your cat does have an accident, clean up the liquid with a paper towel and then put that paper towel in its litter box. This will help it associate urine with its box.\nOnce your cat is using the litter box properly, gradually allow your cat back into the rest of the home, but continue to supervise them as much as possible. <img> ", "Rule out medical issues with a visit to your veterinarian. Take your cat to the vet as soon as possible after the first few accidents. Unfortunately, one of the most common reasons why a cat will stop using their box is due to a urinary tract infection or bladder stone. Follow your vet’s instructions for treatment. If your vet doesn’t find a medical issue, they will still help you solve the problem by providing potential solutions to try at home.\nUrination problems due to medical issues cannot be resolved by trying to change your cat’s behaviour or revamping their litter box and/or litter.\nIf you allow a medical issue to persist, your cat may associate their litter box with pain. This may cause them to stop using the litter box altogether, even when their medical issue is cured.\nUrinating outside of the tray could be a sign your cat feels discomfort or that it needed to empty it’s bladder immediately. Don’t ignore these signs since there could be a more serious problem, such as a urinary blockage. <img> Follow your vet’s instructions for treating any medical issues. The sooner a treatment plan is implemented, the sooner your cat will start to feel better and the sooner they’ll return to their normal peeing location. Untreated medical problems may cause your cat to associate the litter box with pain and suffering, even when they’re no longer sick. In such cases, you may need to take the time to retrain your cat to use the litter box.\nAsk your vet to provide you with a detailed treatment plan and a list of options. You may need to try several options before you find a solution that works for your cat. <img> Ask your vet to help you determine if your cat is urine marking. Take note of where your cat is peeing outside of their litter box. Urine marking often happens on vertical spaces like walls, chair legs, speakers, or on the side of a couch, rather than on the floor. Observe whether your cat is also peeing in their litter box. Cats who are urine marking only do so with a small amount of urine. They continue to use their litter box for normal elimination needs.\nFinally, determine if the urine smell outside of the box is stronger than it is inside the box. Cats used a more concentrated version of urine to mark, so it leaves a lasting smell. Provide your vet with this information and work with them to find a solution.\nIntact cats (those that have not been spayed or neutered) are more likely to urine mark than cats who have been fixed. <img> Spay or neuter your cat to stop them from urine marking. One of the reasons for urine marking is that your cat is advertising for a mate. An indoor cat may even urine mark inside in an attempt to communicate with cats that are outside. The easiest way to stop a cat who is marking specifically for mating purposes is to have them spayed or neutered. You can take your cat to your regular vet to be spayed or neutered, or you can attend a spay and neuter clinic in your community which may not charge for the operation.\nCats can be spayed or neutered as young as a few months old, as long as they are the proper weight and the vet is familiar with pediatric spays and neuters.\nMost cats adopted from a shelter or humane society will be spayed and neutered before you bring them home. <img> " ]

[ "Research your state laws. Not all states require that the agent and principal sign the power of attorney document in front of a notary. \nFor example, in Mississippi, the power of attorney document must be signed in front of a notary. In New Hampshire, signing in front of a notary is not required. You can find out whether your state requires notarization for a power of attorney document on the website USLegal.com.\nEven if your state does not require you to notarize a power of attorney, doing so may limit eventual challenges to the document. If notarized, there can be no question that the signatures on the document are valid. <img> Locate the appropriate power of attorney form. Many power of attorney documents are state specific. Make sure the one you use fits your state's minimum requirements. \nIt may be easiest to find one specifically designed for use in your state. Many states provide power of attorney forms online. You can also find forms via websites such as USLegalForms.com.\nOften, a power of attorney is specific for the situation. For example, a financial power of attorney allows the agent to make decisions regarding the principal's finances, but does not necessarily grant power to the agent concerning health care decisions. A general power of attorney is less specific and allows the agent to make all decisions on behalf of the principal. <img> Draft a power of attorney document. Power of attorney can be granted in one of two ways:\nThe \"springing power of attorney\" only grants power to the assigned agent after a certain event. For example, a power of attorney document could grant authority to someone after you are incapacitated by injury or an accident.\nA \"durable power of attorney\" goes into effect either immediately or from a specified date onward. The agent does not need to prove your incapacity in order to act on your behalf. <img> ", "Fill out the forms. Fill out the form in accordance with state requirements. Your power of attorney document must fulfill certain basic requirements:\nIt must clearly identify the principal (the person who is granting the power). The document should use the full legal name of the principal.\nIt must identify the agent (the person who is granted specified powers). The document should include the full name of the agent.\nThe form should stipulate exactly what authority the principal is handing over to the agent. For example, the principal could hand over only financial authority to the agent (the power to control the principal's bank accounts) or health care decision making authority (so the agent could make health care decisions on behalf of the principal).\nThe document should be clearly titled “Power of Attorney.” It should include the date at which the power will go into effect or the circumstances (such as the incapacitation of the principal) that will cause it to be enacted. <img> Consider hiring a lawyer to review the document before you get it notarized. A lawyer can read the document and point out any errors or loopholes that need to be closed. For example, an attorney may notice that the document uses language that could been seen as ambiguous, and therefore could lead to confusion. \nAn attorney can review the document at any time, but it will require notarization again if changes are necessary. You may be able to save time by having it examined before a final copy is notarized. <img> Find a notary public. You can find a notary in communities of almost any size. There should be one located near you. The American Society of Notaries has a Notary Locator you can use to find a notary in your area.\nOnce you have located a notary, you may want to make an appointment before going in, to make sure that the notary has time to answer any questions. However, an appointment is usually not required.\nBanks often offer notary services to their customers free of charge.\nMany post offices and mailing centers keep a public notary on staff.\nIf you have the power of attorney prepared or reviewed by an attorney, it may be possible for the law firm to notarize the document. <img> Meet with the notary and sign the document in their presence. The notary must witness both the agent and the principal signing the power of attorney, so make sure you complete the form (with the exception of the signatures) before meeting with the notary.

[ "Place 4 stones into each of the 12 cups. Mancala sets come with a total of 48 stones or marbles. Divide these between you and your opponent so that each of you has 24 stones. Place 4 of your stones into each of the 6 cups on your side of the board and have your opponent do the same. Don’t put stones into the mancalas (home cups) at the ends of the board.Tip: Some mancala boards don't have mancalas. If you have a board like this, collect the stones you capture in a small pile in front of you or in a bowl. <img> Pick up the stones from 1 of your cups on your turn. To start the game, choose someone to go first. You can do this by tossing a coin or let the youngest player go first. On your turn, pick up the stones in 1 of the cups on your side of the board.\nNever pick up stones from your opponent’s side of the board to start your turn. You must start your turn by emptying one of your cups. <img> Place 1 stone into each of the cups to the right of that cup. Redistribute the stones into the cups to the right. Move counter-clockwise around the board to redistribute any remaining stones. Only put 1 stone into each cup. When you reach the end of your row, place 1 stone into your mancala, but don’t put a stone into your opponent’s mancala if you pass it. <img> Take turns to continue playing the game. After you finish placing all of your stones into cups, your turn is over. Allow your opponent to do the same on their turn. Alternate turns with your opponent until someone wins the game. <img> End the game when all the cups on 1 side of the board are empty. It does not matter if you or your opponent is the first player with empty cups on their side. When 1 of you has no stones in any of the 6 cups on your side, the game is over. Stop taking turns at this point.\nFor example, if you empty the last of your cups on your turn, then the game would end right after your turn. Play would not pass to your opponent. <img> Count your stones to see who has the most. The player with the most stones is the winner, so count your stones and have your opponent do the same. If you have the most stones, then you win. If your opponent has the most stones, they win. It does not matter how many more stones you have than your opponent or vice versa.\nFor example, if you have 26 stones and your opponent only has 18 stones, then you win the game. But if your opponent has 21 stones and you have 20, then your opponent is the winner. <img> Note that there will still be stones on the board when the game is over. Only 1 side of the board needs to be empty to end the game. Any stones that remain on the board will not count towards either player’s points. For example, say your opponent ends the game by clearing the stones from their side, but you still have stones on your side. These stones do not count towards either of your points. The person with the most stones in their mancala is the winner.\nFor example, if you have 21 stones in your mancala and your opponent has 20 stones, then the other 7 stones still on the board are neutral. You would be the winner because you have the most stones. <img> ", "Identify a move that would end on an empty cup on your side. You have to have enough stones in the cup to go all the way around the board and back to your own side. By placing your last stone into an empty cup on your side, you can capture your opponent’s stones in the opposite cup. Look for a cup that would allow you to do this. Then, find a cup with the right amount of stones in it and collect them.\nFor example, if you see an empty cup on your side and spot a cup 2 spaces away with 2 stones in it, then pick up these stones to make the move.Tip: This move works best after you and your opponent have taken several turns. You won't have any empty stones at the beginning of the game. <img> Place 1 stone into each space going counter-clockwise. After you pick up your stones, drop only 1 into each cup ahead of that cup. Move counter-clockwise around the board.\nKeep dropping 1 stone at a time until you reach the last space, then drop that stone as well. <img> Collect the stones in your opponent’s cup across from your cup. As long as the last cup you dropped a stone into was on your side and empty, you may capture the stones in your opponent’s cup. You also get the stone you placed into your cup.\nFor example, if there are 4 stones in your opponent’s cup, then capture those 4 plus your 1 stone for a total of 5 stones.\nRemember, it does not matter how many stones are in your opponent’s cup. Whether there is 1, 2, 3 or more stones in a cup, you get to capture them all using this strategy! <img> Place your opponent’s stones and your stone into your mancala. Once you have gathered up your stones and your opponent’s stones, place them into your mancala. These stones are now yours.\nIf your board does not have mancalas, then place the stones you capture into a dish or pile in front of you.\nNote that after you capture, your turn is over and it is your opponent’s turn. <img> ", "Determine if you will be playing by Wari rules before you start. In this variation, you can capture stones the normal way, or depending on the number of stones in your opponent’s cups. If the last cup you place stones in on your turn is an opponent’s cup with 2 or 3 stones in it, capture the stones in that cup. You can also take the stones in any other preceding cups with 2 or 3 stones in them.\nFor example, if you place 1 stone into 4 of your opponent’s cups and they each have 2 or 3 stones in them after you do this, then you can capture the stones in all 4 cups.\nHowever, if only the first and last cup out of 4 have 2 or 3 stones in them, then you can only capture the stones in these cups. <img> Look for cups that have 1 or 2 stones and target those cups. You need to have enough stones in your cup to go around your side to the opponent's side of the board. Before you start your turn, look to see if your opponent has any cups with 1 or 2 stones in them. If they do, then you can capture these stones by placing stones into them for a total of 2 to 3 stones per cup. Gather up stones from 1 of the cups on your side of the board. Choose a cup that will allow you to put stones in cups on your opponent’s side.Tip: You can also try to prevent your opponent from using this strategy on your cups. Place stones into cups on your side that only have 2 stones in them. This will ensure that each cup has 3 stones at the end of your turn, and your opponent would be adding a 4th stone to the cups. That will prevent your opponent from collecting these stones. <img> Collect stones from the cup that you end on if it has 2 to 3 stones. If you place stones into your opponent’s cups and the last cup has 2 or 3 stones, capture those stones and place them into your mancala.\nThese stones are yours now. <img> Gather the stones in previous cups if they also have 2 to 3. Make sure to check the previous cups that you dropped stones into as well. If any cup before the last one has 2 to 3 stones in it, then you may also collect these stones.\nAfter you finish your capture move, let your opponent take their turn. <img> " ]

[ "Wash and condition your hair. Getting your hair wet is the first step to straightening it, so start by washing and conditioning your hair. To improve hair moisture and prevent frizzing, use a deep conditioner, or leave your regular conditioner in your hair for an extra two or three minutes.\nOptionally, use a shampoo formulated to straighten hair.\nIf you've already washed your hair recently, just dampen it with water. Too much washing can strip away protective oils and can lead to frizzy hair. <img> Towel dry your hair to remove excess water. Gently pat your hair dry until it is no longer dripping, but still damp. This will speed up the blow-drying process, thus reducing damage to your hair. <img> Apply anti-frizz product. This will help your hair stay straight while it dries, especially if it's naturally prone to curling up under cool air. Apply a dime-sized amount from the roots to the ends. Use more if you have thick, long hair. You can choose from any of the following treatments:\nAnti-fizz serum\nLeave-in conditioner or leave-in hair balm\nMoroccan oil\nA mix of 4 oz (120 mL) camellia oil and 1 oz (30 mL) avocado oil <img> Section your hair. Part your hair into 3–6 sections, depending on how thick your hair is. Keep all but one section out of your way using crocodile clips. <img> Choose a blow dryer setting. Blow dry with cool air if you want to protect your hair, but be prepared to dry for up to an hour. For faster drying and a longer-lasting effect, use hot air. Hot air can damage your hair over time, especially if used frequently.\nIf using hot air, apply heat protectant to your hair first. If possible, choose one based on natural oils, not silicone. <img> Choose a brush. Find a flat paddle brush or a round brush. Avoid wide brushes, as these are difficult to handle. <img> Brush as you blow-dry. Take one thin lock of hair, slightly narrower than your brush. Blow dry this with the nozzle pointed downward. Brush slowly in long, straight strokes as you dry that section. Keep the brush under the hair and the dryer nozzle hovering over the hair. Move the brush and dryer at almost the same speed, with the dryer trailing behind just a short distance. Repeat if necessary until the hair is completely dry and straight, then move on to the next lock of hair.\nStart with the lower layers of hair, around the nape of your neck and your ears.\nYou can also blow-dry your hair in front of a fan, rather than tiring out your arm with a blow-dryer. Keep in mind that it may be more difficult to control a fan than a blow-dryer. <img> Style your hair (optional). Smooth more anti-frizz product into your dry hair to keep it smooth, straight and glossy.\nKeep your hair in a low, loose ponytail if you want to put it up. Putting it in a bun or braid will leave creases in your hair, making it appear wavy. <img> ", "Try this easy, gentle method. This method is best used to turn moderately curly hair into gentle waves. The result won't be as straight as a flat iron could make, but your hair will be healthier and more resistant to humidity. This process is also very easy, and it requires no special hair products. <img> Wash and partially dry your hair. Wash your hair in the evening. Towel dry gently, leaving it damp but not dripping. <img> Comb your hair. Comb or brush out any knots and tangles. <img> Tie in a series of fabric hair ties. Tie your hair into a loose ponytail using a fabric hair tie, not an elastic hairband. Add a second hair tie about 2 inches (5 cm) below the first, and repeat at regular intervals.\nYou can use hair clips or bobby pins instead. <img> Leave the hairbands in overnight. Remove them in the morning, or once your hair is dry. <img> Brush out indentations (optional). If the hairbands have left marks, brush them out with a round brush. <img> " ]

Some people recommend black or chamomile tea for this drink.\nChoose your favorite tea, as all flavors can work, though. Coffee doesn’t work as well. The coffee taste is too strong, so it camouflages the whiskey too much. What you’re trying to do is to enhance the tea’s flavor.\nRecommended tea include ginger, earl grey, peppermint, hibiscus, or chamomile.\nSome people even use cheaper tea bags such as Lipton.

Simply put the tea leaves in the coffee filter.\nMake your own tea bag with cheesecloth. Cut a square of the cheesecloth, and put your loose tea inside of it. Tie up the bag, add it to the cup of hot water, and let it brew for several minutes. You can reuse the tea cloth.\nUse a strainer (sometimes called a tea leaf infuser). These come in different sizes. Measure the tea for the right amount you want to make. Place the tea in the infuser. Put the infuser in the tea cup. Some infusers are ball-shaped, and others resemble spoons. <img> Steep the tea. After you've boiled the water, you will need to steep the tea in the water.\nPlace a tea bag into the mug with hot water. You want to give the tea bag time to turn the water into tea. Different teas brew for different amounts of times. For example, it takes about 1 to 3 minutes to steep white tea but about 3 to 4 minutes to steep black tea.\nIf you want more than one drink, use the teapot or regular saucepan if you don’t have a kettle. Fill the mug about three fourths of the way full to leave space for the whiskey.\nYou may want to use a glass measuring cup to pour the water. Be careful if using boiling water in a saucepan. You risk the water spilling more than if using a kettle with a spout. Don't worry about the alcohol evaporating. Alcohol doesn't boil until 173 degrees Fahrenheit (or 78.3 degrees Celsius), and most cooking methods don't cook off all the alcohol. <img> ", "Put the whiskey into the tea. One way you can do this is to take one or two shots of whiskey, and pour them into a one-liter teapot as the water boils.\nMany people use Jack Daniels whiskey when making this drink, but any type of whiskey works. You could also make a mug of tea and then add a single shot of whiskey in it to taste. You could also use 60ml (.24 metric cups) whiskey for 60ml water, basically an even split.\nSome recipes call for 1 ½ ounces of whiskey (50 ml) for every 1 cup of hot water (250ml) and 1 tea bag. How much whiskey you use, though, depends on how much of an alcohol taste you want or can tolerate.\nIrish whiskey can be a good choice because it lacks smoke and has a sweet candy-like flavor. This will add sophistication to even the cheapest teas. This is also a great drink in winter weather or over the holidays. <img> Add lemon and honey. In the classic hot toddy drink, you add lemon and honey along with the tea and the whiskey. You can leave these elements out if you want, of course.\nThe honey is a sweetener that helps a sore throat. You may want to add 1 to 2 slices of lemon and 1 to 2 tablespoons of honey into the drink. Let the slices of lemon float in the top of the tea cup. If you have a sore throat or are sick, breathe in the steam.\nStir the drink. Some people pour the honey into the bottom of the mug and then pour the hot water on top of it.\nMany people believe that hot toddies can help cure the common cold. You don’t need to add the extras to the drink if you want, although they all have their purpose. For example, honey is often added to a hot toddy for its soothing properties. <img> Add in some spice. It depends on your personal taste, but some recipes for hot toddies call for adding some spice to the tea.\nFor example, you could add in a grating of nutmeg after making the tea or a 1cm (.39 inch) piece of ginger that you’ve peeled or sliced.\nSome people put a cinnamon stick into the glass after making the drink. Let the cinnamon stick stand in the mug for a few minutes to infuse it with the taste.\nSome people also add white sugar or milk to their whiskey and tea. One teaspoon of white sugar is about all you would need for a single mug of tea. <img> ", "Try using cold green tea. Although the classic combination is hot tea and whiskey, you can also make a variation of the drink using cold or iced green tea.\nCold green tea mixed with whiskey is considered by some to be a drink common in China. Some people put Irish whiskey, sweet bourbons or scotches into iced green tea instead. You could also use iced tea.\nGreen tea is a neutral enough flavor, which is why mixing it with whiskey can spice it up. However, it’s not the classic way to make the drink.\nReally, you should try variations that play to your tastes. There is not one single way to make a drink, so play around and be creative! <img> Put other liquor into the tea. Although combining whiskey with hot tea is a great way to make a drink, if you don’t have any whiskey around or don’t like its flavor, you could try other hard liquor.\nScotch mixed with Earl Grey tea is one combination you might want to try. You could also mix Bourbon or Scotch with tea. Some people make the drink with brandy.\nGunpowder teas have a smoky flavor that goes well with a full-bodied and equally smoky Scotch. There are many different types of hard liquor you can mix with hot tea. <img> Go without tea. Maybe you want a hot toddy but you are trying to avoid caffeine or simply don’t like the taste of tea. There are variations of this hot whiskey drink without tea.\nPlace 2 ounces (.05 kilogram) of whiskey in a large microwaveable mug. Add 1 tablespoon of honey and pour hot water into the mug.\nYou could try using hot cider instead of tea. The process works the same way. This is a good variation for people trying to stay away from caffeine.\nAdd 1 teaspoon of lemon juice. Now, place the mug in the microwave for 1 minute and take it out when it is piping hot. Add a lemon slice and drink. <img> " ]

[ "Focus on what you’re attracted to the most in a guy. Think about what really turns you on, whether it’s a physical quality or something more emotional. Keep an eye out for guys who embody a lot of the traits that you like, which will help you decide who’d be a good candidate as a potential boyfriend.\nFor instance, if you like guys who are a bit outspoken, look for a guy who seems to make the first move.\nIf you prefer a more shy, reserved kind of person, keep an eye out for a guy who keeps to himself. <img> Look for signs that the guy is interested in starting a relationship. Watch for small things that he does, like holding the door or saving you a seat somewhere. While you can chalk these behaviors up to chivalry, they may be a sign that a guy wants to take things to a more romantic level with you.\nInside jokes are another great sign that you’re close with someone. <img> Search for new life experiences instead of searching for yourself. Try not to use the excuse of “finding yourself” too often—while it’s important to take time to recharge, don’t use this time as a reason to give up on starting a new relationship. Instead, try to put yourself out there, even if you’re nervous. You may be surprised at how many opportunities are available to you!\nFor instance, you can head out to a club for an hour or so instead of spending a night at home. <img> Pay attention to any red flags that the guy gives off. Be on the lookout for any obvious turn-offs, like someone having a rude personality or acting disrespectful of your boundaries. While there’s nothing wrong with seeing the good in people, don’t let optimism blind you to the facts of a situation. It can be difficult to let go of a possible connection, but it’s always better to wait for someone who will treat you properly.\nFor instance, if you’re with a guy who tries to make decisions for you, like which movie you’ll see a theater, it might be a bad sign for the rest of the relationship. <img> ", "Ask him what he likes in a partner. See if you both have any similar turn-ons, or if you’re compatible for one another in some way. If you both don’t have much in common, you can save yourselves a lot of trouble by be opening about your likes and dislikes in a potential partner.\nFor instance, if he’s interested in girls who like outdoor activities, it might be a turn-off if you’re only interested in indoor activities.\nTurn-ons and turn-offs aren’t the deciding factor of a relationship, but they can give you a basic idea of how things may pan out. <img> Disregard any insecurities that tell you you’re not good enough. Keep in mind that doubts and self-criticisms are completely normal, and commonplace when you’re thinking about starting a new relationship. You may be feeling inadequate, or creating a list of everything you don’t like about yourself. Ignore these thoughts, and follow through with what you desire. If you want to strike up a conversation with someone, don’t let your insecurities stand in the way.\nFor instance, instead of thinking: “What if he doesn’t like me?” you can think something like “I have a lot to offer in a relationship, and I have nothing to worry about.” <img> Make decisions about your potential relationship independently. Don’t be tempted to ask your parents or guardians for “permission” regarding your relationship. Instead, acknowledge that any new relationship is your own choice and responsibility, and no one else’s. Focus on your own desires and priorities in a relationship instead of worrying about what anyone else wants.\nIt’s totally okay to ask loved ones for advice about a new relationship, but you shouldn’t have to worry about getting their “blessing.” At the end of the day, your relationship is your decision! <img> Stay confident in your own identity and interests. Don’t try to become a carbon copy of the guy’s opinions and interests—this will look disingenuous, and ultimately will be a turn-off. Instead, let your partner know when you disagree with whatever he has to say. Disagreement doesn’t have to negative; in fact, it can lead to some really positive, engaging conversations where you get to know one another better!\nFor instance, if he talks about how soccer is his favorite sport, you can mention that you like basketball more. <img> ", "Communicate clearly without playing games. Let the guy know if you’re interested in starting a relationship. Don’t worry about playing hard to get, or sounding a certain way in your texts. Instead, focus on being as honest and clear as possible. You’ll be saving yourself (and your potential partner) a lot of trouble and heartache in the long run!\nFor instance, you can say something like: “Hey! I really appreciate your friendship and I think I’m ready to take things to the next level. Would you wanna go out sometime?” <img> Look for nonverbal signals that he’s giving off. See if he’s crossing his arms or refusing to look you in the eye—these could be signs that he’s closing himself off, or that he’s not engaged in whatever you’re talking about. Similarly, watch for moments where the guy turns away from you in the conversation, as this can be a sign that he isn’t interested.\nFor instance, if the guy crosses his arms while you’re talking about the future of your relationship, he might not be willing to think that far ahead. <img> Take time to listen to him. Focus on whatever he has to say, even if it seems insignificant at the time. Get in the habit of sincerely listening in every conversation—this will really go the extra mile in your relationship, and show that you really care about what he has to say.\nIt’s easy to get caught up in your own thoughts during a conversation, but try to anchor yourself in what the other person is saying. <img> Let him know when something is bothering you. Don’t keep your emotions bottled up, as this will just lead to more conflict further down the line. Instead, take time to express yourself clearly and effectively without saying anything hurtful. Your relationship won’t get off the ground if you keep your emotions and thoughts hidden from view.\nFor instance, you can say something like: “Can I talk to you about something? I’ve been feeling a little stressed since yesterday, and I just want to clear the air.” <img> ", "Prioritize emotional bonding over sexual intimacy. Write down a list of your priorities for the relationship, focusing specifically on your emotional needs. Spend your time getting to know him better instead of trying to take things to the next level. When you have a tight emotional bond, it’ll be easier to pursue a sexual avenue in the relationship.\nIf sex is the only thing tying your relationship together, you may need to reevaluate both of your priorities.\nFocus on activities that help you both get to know one another emotionally. This could be something as simple as playing a video game, or sitting down and having a long conversation. <img> Stay calm instead of posting a lot on social media. Resist the temptation to tell everyone about your new boyfriend; instead, try to keep things as low-key as possible. Wait until your relationship is a few weeks or months old before you start posting a lot of pictures and sappy posts on social media. If you’re overly enthusiastic, it might be overwhelming or unappealing to the guy.\nWhile it’s always great to start a new relationship, you don’t want to put all of your hopes and dreams in one guy. Just have fun with the relationship—you can figure out later if you’ll work well together in the long-term. <img> Share details about yourself gradually. Trust is an important part of any relationship, but it’s not something that’s earned overnight. Give your relationship time to develop and grow stronger; over the first few days and weeks, you can start sharing more information about yourself as you both go closer. Keep in mind that the beginning of your relationship isn’t a race—it’s a long-term process where you’ll get closer and closer with someone.\nFor instance, you can share a story or 2 from your childhood on your first date instead of spilling your entire life story. <img> " ]

[ "Dial the exit code of the country that you’re calling from. The exit code informs the phone company that you’re calling from outside of Eritrea, and they will be able to connect you to the telephone services in that country. Exit codes vary based on the country that you are calling from.\nFor the United States and Canada, the exit code is 011.\nFor many other countries, including the United Kingdom, the exit code is 00. <img> Type in the country code for Eritrea (291). Next, you’ll dial 291, which lets the phone company know that you’re placing a call to the country of Eritrea. <img> Dial 7 if you are calling a mobile phone or 1 for a landline. For Eritrean phone numbers, the next number is considered the “area code,” but there are only two options based on the kind of phone that you’re calling. <img> Dial the 6-digit subscriber number. Be sure to type the numbers into the phone carefully to avoid calling the wrong person! All phone numbers in Eritrea have 6 digits in addition to the country and area codes.\nFor example if you’re placing a call from the United States to a mobile phone in Eritrea, you will dial: 011 291 7 XXX XXX. <img> Wait for the phone to connect and ring. For long-distance calls, it can take a moment for the call to connect. Be patient and wait to hear ringing to ensure that the call has connected.\nIf the phone doesn’t ring within 15-20 seconds of dialing, hang up and attempt to re-dial the number. <img> ", "Buy an international calling card. Calling cards help to offset some of the expensive charges for placing international calls. The card, which you can buy at most grocery stores, comes preloaded with a specific number of call minutes that you’ve already paid for.\nLook for cards that charge low fees to place calls and have low maintenance fees or none at all. These charges take away time from your calls.\nMake sure to select a card that has options for calling Africa. Some International calling cards might be region specific, like Europe or Asia. <img> Locate the PIN on the back of the card. Once you’ve purchased your card and are ready to make a call, flip the card over and locate the PIN, which is normally hidden under a scratch-off or peel-off coating.\nSome calling companies print the PIN on your receipt to avoid theft. If you can’t find it on the back of the card, check your receipt.\nIf you can't find the PIN for your calling card, call the customer service number printed on the card for assistance. <img> Dial the access number. To use the card, you have to activate it by calling into the card company. Normally, this is an 800-number listed on the front or back of the card. Listen closely to the directions, especially if it’s your first time calling.\nThe automated message will prompt you to enter your PIN, so have the number on hand when calling. <img> Dial the phone number and wait to be connected. Once you’ve entered your PIN, the automated message will prompt you to enter the number you want to call. Be sure to enter the country code (291), area code (7 or 1), and the 6-digit subscriber number.\nBe patient while you’re being connected. You should hear ringing within a few seconds of dialing the number. If you don’t, hang up the call and re-dial the access number to start over.\nIf problems persist, contact the customer service number of the card company for assistance. <img> Keep track of your minutes to avoid being cut short. Use a pen and paper to keep track of when your call was connected and how much time you spend on the line. Some companies will remind you of how many minutes you have remaining before you place your call, but it’s always good to keep track for yourself!\nOnce you’re getting down to your last 5-10 minutes, consider reloading the card you have now or purchasing a new one. <img> ", "Contact your cell phone company to get an overseas calling plan. If you know you’ll be calling overseas or traveling often, some phone companies offer international plans for discounted rates. Your savings will depend on how often you’re calling Eritrea and how much money the plan for your phone company costs.\nBe sure to ask your provider if there are any additional fees for calls to places like Africa, which may be outside of their traditional international plans. <img> Use a VoIP service like Skype or WhatsApp to call via WiFi. Apps like Skype, Viber, WhatsApp, and many more allow users to place international calls to other individuals who have the app downloaded on their device, sometimes for little or no cost. They use a service known as Voice over Internet Protocol to place the call over WiFi or broadband.\nMany VoIP services are free when the call is placed to another user of the same app, but they will charge fees for placing calls to mobile or landline numbers.\nSome VoIP services charge a flat rate for use of their services, which can be much less expensive than other methods of calling. This is especially useful if you call Eritrea often, and the person you are calling uses a landline. <img> Download a messenger app that supports calls. If you’re calling someone who has a smartphone, apps like Facebook Messenger, Kik, and WhatsApp support user-to-user calls over WiFi or data for free.\nYou won’t be charged for placing the calls, but be aware that your phone company might charge for data or WiFi usage as per your phone agreement. <img> " ]

[ "Eat healthily. Food can give you the energy to get through the day, but it also helps your body grow. Getting the vitamins and minerals your body needs by eating healthy, regular meals and snacks can help you grow taller faster.\nHave breakfast, lunch, dinner, and two healthy snacks every day. This makes sure that your body has enough energy to get you through your day and encourages it to grow. <img> Choose foods from the five food groups. You need different vitamins and minerals to grow. You can get what you need by eating a variety of foods from the five food groups every day. The five food groups are fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, grains and dairy every day. Make sure to choose different food options at every meal so that you get enough nutrients to grow. \nSelect fruits and vegetables such as strawberries, blueberries, apples, broccoli, spinach, and potatoes. Lean proteins like chicken, fish, and eggs are good options to help you grow. You can get grain by eating whole wheat breads and pasta or some cereals. Dairy is found in sources like milk, cheese, yogurt, and even ice cream.\nEat two healthy snacks in between meals. Some good snack choices are low-fat string cheese, yogurt, an orange or apple slices. Healthy snacks help keep you full in between meals as well as avoid junk food. <img> Make a meal plan. Create a plan for your meals each day of the week. This can help you make sure you're getting enough vitamins and minerals to grow. Talk to your parents about doing the plan together so that you can get healthy meals at home and when you're at school.\nWrite a specific plan for each meal every day. For example, you could write, “Monday: whole wheat toast with peanut butter, a cup of strawberries in Greek yogurt, and a glass of orange juice for breakfast; apple slices for a mid-morning snack; turkey sandwich, cut veggies and dip, and glass of milk for lunch; string cheese and crackers for afternoon snack; chicken breast, steamed vegetables, and salad for dinner; cup of blueberries and raspberries for dessert.”\nPack your lunch on days that the food isn't as healthy as you would like. For example, you might want to pack a salad or sandwich on wheat bread instead of having the pizza and fries your school offers. Remember that you can have one “cheat” day a week so that you don't crave or overindulge in your favorite foods.\nGet your parents involved in your meal plans. This might include writing the plan together, cooking with your mom and dad, or even helping them grocery shop. <img> Drink during the day. Just like food, getting enough to drink helps your body grow faster. Water is the best choice. But even milk, fruit juice, and sports drinks can help you grow taller.\nDrink the recommended amount every day. Boys between 9 and 13 should drink 10 cups every day and girls of the same age should drink 8 cups. Boys between 14 and 18 should drink 14 cups every day and girls between those ages should have 11 cups. If you are physically active or it is very hot outside, you may need to drink more.\nEating nutritious food like fruits and vegetables can add 2-3 cups of water towards your daily total. <img> Avoid unhealthy choices. Nutrition is important to your growth. Because of this, you don't want to eat too many unhealthy foods. Foods like sweets or French fries or drinks such as soda may keep you from getting what you need to grow.\nChoose healthy foods whenever you can. For example, a salad instead of fries will help you grow faster and grilled chicken is better than a cheeseburger. If you choose where to go out for dinner, choose a restaurant with healthy food options instead of a fast food restaurant. <img> Replace unhealthy foods. If you eat a lot of unhealthy foods and want to grow taller, try replacing them with more healthy options. You can do this gradually so that it isn't a shock to your system. It will also help you figure out what you like and don't like.\nChange your food and drink choices simply and gradually. For example, you could have brown rice instead of white rice or cake with fruit instead of cake with frosting. To drink, you could have sparkling water with flavor instead of soda. <img> Get your parents involved. Tell your parents that want to eat healthier to grow taller. Ask them to help you get the nutrition you need by helping you make healthy choices and cook food. Getting your whole family involved can make everyone a bit healthier and you taller.\nAsk your parents if you can shop with them. You can all make decisions on food and meal planning together. Make sure to include foods from all five groups. <img> Take a children's vitamin. If you are worried that you're not getting enough vitamins, you could take children's vitamins in addition to eating a healthy diet. Always talk to your parents and doctor before taking any vitamins or other medications.\nGet most of your vitamins and minerals from food and drinks. This is easy if you eat a variety of healthy foods every day and get enough to drink.\nStay away from megavitamins, supplements, hormones, or anything not safe for children. These may harm your health and prevent you from growing taller. <img> ", "Do lots of activities. Just like nutrition, exercise or even just moving are important to growing taller. Playing sports or even going for a walk helps build your bones and muscles, which also help you grow taller. Try and to do some type of activity every day.\nDo at least an hour of moderate activity every day. You could do things like running, swimming, biking, or even walking. Activities such as playing hide-and-seek, jumping on a trampoline or with a rope are other ways to get your body moving.\nJoin a sports team or intramural club at your school. For example, if you're not into competitive sports, participate in a group that plays a sport like volleyball or dodgeball for fun. <img> Stretch every day. As you walk or sit during the day, the bones in your spine press together. This makes you a bit shorter at the end of the day. Doing some stretches in the morning, afternoon, and evening can grow taller throughout the day.\nStand against a wall with your back against it. Raise your hands in the air as far as you can. You can also sit with your back against a wall, raising your arms and bend forward to touch your toes. Hold each stretch for 5-10 seconds and repeat 10 times.\nSit on the floor and spread your legs wide apart. Bend forward at your hips and stretch your arms out to touch each of your feet. Hold the stretch for 5-10 seconds and repeat 3-4 times.\nHang from a bar or a set of rings. Try to touch your legs to the ground to make yourself taller.\nRecognize that your body will be its natural height after a good night's rest. <img> Try yoga. Doing some gentle yoga can stretch out your body. Even if you've never done yoga, just trying one or two poses can do a lot to stretch you out and make you taller. If you do an entire yoga session, this also counts towards your daily activity. Join a local yoga class or do a yoga DVD or podcast at home.\nDo a gentle form of yoga like restorative or yin yoga for the best stretching. If you can't do a full yoga session, do downward facing dog for 10 deeps breaths. The downward dog looks like a triangle: you put your hands and feet on the floor and raise your bum in the air. <img> Limit lazy time. You might enjoy playing video games or spending time on your tablet. These types of activities don't help you move and grow. Make a schedule of when you have downtime on your computer or devices. Ask your friends to do activities that move your whole body instead of sitting around the house.\nTry video games such as karaoke or Wii that get you moving.\nRemember that some downtime or mindless play will help you rest, which is also an important part of growing. <img> ", "Stand tall. How you stand can affect not only on how tall you appear but also how tall you grow. Standing up straight and sitting in a chair with a back can make sure you stand properly and help you grow taller. They'll also help you look taller than if you were slouching.\nAvoid sitting with your shoulders hunched over or forward, which can cause your spine to grow crooked. Pull your shoulders back and pull in your belly for the best posture. <img> Get plenty of rest. Just as moving your body is important to growing, so is giving it enough rest. Sleep helps your body recover from the day and grow better. Remember that sleeping also gets your body back to its taller self, too.\nSleep between 10 and 12 hours every night. Take a short nap of 30 minutes during the day if you're tired. You can also do a relaxing activity that doesn't require a lot of movement or using your brain. <img> Avoid alcohol, drugs, and smoking. Like unhealthy food, unhealthy habits can also keep you from getting taller. Drinking alcohol, taking drugs, or smoking cigarettes can keep your bones and muscles from growing properly. These habits can cause your posture to be hunched or stooped with osteoporosis as you get older.\nTalk to your parents, a trusted adult, or medical professional if you drink, smoke, or take drugs. These people can help you find a way to stop any of these habits, which will help you grow taller in the long run. <img> Reduce your stress levels. If you experience any stress because of school, bullying, or peer pressure, don't be afraid to talk about it with your parents or with a trusted adult. High-stress levels in kids stagnate growth tremendously. If you are feeling stressed, try do some breathing exercises. You can ask about it to your PE teacher. <img> Look at your family members. Genetics play a major role in determining how tall you are. For example, if both of your parents are not very tall, you may not end up very tall. However, you may also have tall relatives that you don't know. You may end up taller than you expected- or even taller than the rest of your family!\nAsk your parents and grandparents if they know how tall your ancestors were. You can also ask your siblings and parents when they grew. This can give you an idea of when you might have a growth spurt.\nRemember that you have other awesome things about you other than your height. Try and focus on things such as your great hair or something that you do well. <img> See your doctor. If you are worried about your height, make an appointment to see your doctor. A medical professional can not only make sure that you're growing properly but also diagnose potential issues hindering your growth. A doctor may also be able to give you tips to grow taller faster.\nBe honest with your doctor about your concerns about getting taller. Make sure your doctor knows things like what you're eating, what activities you're getting, and if you have any bad habits such as alcohol.\nAsk any questions you have about getting taller. Your doctor may be able to reassure you that just being patient is all you need to do. Puberty affects growth and can happen at different times for different people.\nYour doctor can also show you what percentile you fall into compared to your peers of the same age for height. Together, you can then use this information to discuss potential issues. <img> " ]

[ "Use cuticle oil daily to condition your nails. Prepping your nails and cuticles before applying the gel polish makes them very dry, so you’ll need to put the moisture back in them once your manicure is complete. Dry nails will become flaky, causing the polish to come off prematurely. To keep your nails moisturized apply cuticle oil every day by brushing it on your cuticles and your skin around it.\nFor extra softness and conditioning, apply the cuticle oil right before bed and follow up with moisturizing hand lotion. <img> Add a thin layer of clear polish over your nails after one week. A great way to prevent chipping gel polish is to reapply a topcoat about a week after the gel manicure. You can use a gel topcoat and cure it with the light. Or, you can use regular clear nail polish and let it air dry. To seal the tips of your nails, run the brush along the top edge first before covering the entire nail with the top coat.\nContinue to reapply a top coat every few days to minimize your manicure or pedicure from chipping. <img> Be gentle with your nails. When you have a fresh new gel manicure, be mindful of everything you're doing with your hands and fingers. Even the slightest chip on the edge of the nail can get bigger and lift from the nail bed. So avoid doing things that can damage the edge of the polish, such as tearing open packages or scraping sticky labels off of surfaces. <img> Avoid using hot water or cleaning products. If you want your gel manicure to last at least 2 weeks without chipping or lifting, try your best to avoid prolonged exposure to hot water. This means if you plan on washing the dishes or cleaning, wear gloves to protect your nails. Hot water and chemicals from cleaning products can seep into the polish and cause it to breakdown, resulting in chipping and peeling. <img> ", "Don't use hot water or soap on your nails before your gel manicure. Some people like to wash or soak their nails before starting a manicure or pedicure. This is not a good idea, because soap contains oils that can adhere to the nail. This can cause lifting of the gel polish after application. You want your nails to be completely dry, so avoid moisture at all costs before painting them.\nStay away from tasks that expose your nails to water for at least an hour before gel application, such as washing the dishes or taking a shower. This is because your nails retain water for a while. <img> Prep and prime each hand separately for best results. Focusing on 1 hand at a time helps you do an even, accurate job preparing each nail. Start with the hand that's easiest for you, then move on to the hand that feels harder. Go slowly so you'll make fewer mistakes. This will set you up for the best manicure possible.\nDon't rush your prepping and priming process or you'll undermine the purpose. <img> Push back your cuticles to clear your nail bed. Applying nail polish over your cuticles can cause the polish to lift and chip after drying. The first thing you should do before polishing your nails is to use a wooden cuticle stick to push your cuticles as far back on each fingernail as possible. If you have a significant amount of cuticles, gently use the stick to scrape them off the nail.\nUse a wooden cuticle pusher instead of a metal one, because wooden ones are soft and won’t harm the nail bed.\nYou can also use a cuticle remover to soften your cuticles before pushing or removing. However, make sure it is oil-free. <img> Buff your nails with a nail buffer. The purpose of buffing is to smooth out the surface of the nail bed and remove any excess dry skin. To do this, hold the buffer parallel to your nail, and buff your entire nail by rubbing quickly back and forth from edge to edge. Try to use no more than 6 strokes per nail, or you may over buff them.\nUse the side of your nail buffer with the coarsest texture. Usually, this side will be colored black.\nMake sure you use a buffer on your nail bed and not a file. A file is very rough, and should only be used for the edge of the nail.\nYou can find a nail buffer at most beauty supply stores. Sometimes they are shaped like a rectangular block, while others may be shaped like a Popsicle stick. <img> Cleanse your nails with 99% isopropyl alcohol and a lint-free wipe. It is important to make sure that your nails are completely dry and free of debris before applying gel polish. Cleanse by applying 99% isopropyl alcohol to each nail. Pour a small amount on a cotton pad and rub it on each nail. You will see your nails start to slowly appear chalky and very dry. Then, wipe each nail with a lint-free wipe. <img> Use nail primer if you want to dehydrate the nail even further. A nail primer will help to dry out the nail bed and assist with the adhesion of the gel polish. It can be purchased at any beauty supply store. Just apply a thin even coat with the brush provided, and allow it to dry. Application of this product will prevent lifting and chipping, especially when applied to the tips of your nails.\nYou can dehydrate your nail bed even more by applying pure acetone with a cotton pad. Make sure to avoid the cuticles when applying acetone; you don’t want to dry them out too much. <img> Apply a thin layer of base coat to your nails. Before starting your gel manicure, apply a gel base coat to each nail. This is a critical step, as the base coat allows the gel polish to completely adhere to the nail. Use the brush that comes with the base coat to paint the entire nail, without touching the cuticle or nail bed. Make sure you also paint the tip of the nail to prevent chipping.\nIt’s important to avoid getting the base coat on the cuticle or nail bed. If it does, the polish may lift, and the manicure will not last long. <img> Dry the base coat under an LED or UV lamp. Immediately after applying the base coat, put your nails under an LED or UV lamp to cure it. If you have an LED lamp, cure the base coat for at least 30 seconds. If you have a UV lamp, leave your nails under for 1 minute.\nFollow the manufacturer’s instructions to determine whether the gel polish cures or dries best with LED or UV light. It varies depending on the type of gel polish you purchase. <img> ", "Paint thin layers of gel polish on your nails. When putting on nail polish, make sure you apply thin layers. To do this, dip the brush in the nail polish, then wipe a little bit off the side of the container before touching the brush to the nail. If you apply thick layers with too much polish, they might not completely dry and that will cause smudging.\nApply at least 2 thin layers of polish, but no more than 3. <img> Work quickly, focusing on 1 hand at a time for precision. The gel polish will set more evenly if you apply it quickly. Brush the polish on as fast as you can without being sloppy, then go immediately to the next nail. Finish all of the nails on 1 hand before you turn your attention to your other hand, which will help you keep your results as neat as possible.\nYou don't need to rush, but you also don't want to take your time. Don't pause between nails, spend a lot of time dipping your brush, or stop to examine your work after each nail. <img> Avoid getting gel polish on your cuticles and skin. It is important to avoid getting any gel polish on your cuticles or skin while you’re painting your nails. Even a small drop of polish on your skin can cause it to separate from the area after it dries because this prevents the nail from being fully sealed. This is because gel polish does not adhere to the skin.\nIf you accidentally get the gel polish on your skin or cuticle during application, quickly remove it with a wooden cuticle stick or cotton swab before curing it. <img> Cap the gel polish on the tip of the nail for each layer you apply. When applying gel polish, make sure to cap the edges of the nail. To do this, paint the entire nail, and then paint over it a little bit underneath the edge of the nail. This will help to delay chipping because the polish will wrap around the nail and cling to it. When it does start to chip, you won’t notice it because it will chip on the edges first before coming off the tip of the nail.\nWhen capping the edge, make sure the coat is as thin as possible to avoid peeling. <img> Cure each coat completely before adding the next coat. The most important part of the gel manicure is arguably using either UV or LED lights to cure the polish. The lighting is used to dry and harden the gel polish, making it last longer than a regular manicure. Leave your nails under the light for the recommended amount of time right after you apply a coat. Gel nails under LED lights take about 30 seconds to cure on average, while UV lamps take 1-2 minutes to cure.\nKeep in mind that UV bulbs need to be changed on a regular basis. If not, the light will dim, resulting in dull gel colors and faster chipping. LED bulbs do not need to be changed.\nUV lamps should be at least 36 watts, while LED lamps need to be 18 watts for most gel polish brands to fully cure. <img> Add a top coat and cure it under the lamp. Once you finish applying a few coats of your gel polish, finish off your manicure with a topcoat. This is an important step to seal the gel, and it adds an extra layer of protection. As with the base coat and gel coats, avoid getting the top coat on your skin and cuticles. Cure it under the UV or LED light when you’re finished applying. <img> " ]

[ "Identify all the necessary project stakeholders. A stakeholder is anyone who will be affected by the project. This is a long list of people ranging from the project sponsor down to the individual employees who will work on the project. There are a few stakeholders you should identify and communicate with throughout the process.\nThe project sponsor is the person or business that provides the funds for the project. They usually own the end result. Usually the sponsor has to sign off on all big decisions.\nThe management team are the ones who oversee the project. Usually each member of the management team heads a division that carries out specific tasks to complete the project.\nEnd users are people who will use the project when it's finished. Visitors to a building, for example, are end users. You usually don’t meet with end users, but you should take their potential concerns into account while planning the project. <img> Meet with the upper-level stakeholders to work out the project's goals. In this pre-planning stage, work out a clear definition of the project goals by speaking with its stakeholders. You don’t have to meet with every stakeholder, since many are lower-level employees. But you should speak with stakeholders at the management and ownership levels. You’ll have to meet their expectations with this project.\nSpeak with the project sponsor to understand their expectations and work out the project goals. Begin by consulting with them.\nMeet with the management team before drawing up concrete plans to understand the budget, timeline, necessary resources, and risks of the project. If the managers bring up any concerns about the project, take them seriously. They are the ones who have to carry the project out and can identify potential problems. <img> Define the project’s scope to plan how you will complete it. The scope is the intended result of the project. What will this project accomplish when it’s completed? What objectives will it meet? Having a clear idea of the project’s scope is crucial for planning what steps you’ll take to meet those goals. In speaking with the important stakeholders, get an understanding for what the intended project scope is.\nFor instance, a project scope could be building a new luxury apartment building. All the subsequent planning will build towards this end result.\nMake sure the project scope is feasible. For example, if a sponsor wants to travel to Mars next year, this is probably not a manageable scope. Talk with the sponsor and inform them of what is currently possible, and then work out a scope you can meet.\nIf the sponsor is not entirely sure what the intended scope for the project is, help them work it out. Speak with them and the project managers to come to a conclusion on what the end result should produce. <img> Divide the project into key milestones. Once you’ve defined the scope, you can identify the milestones the team has to meet. Milestones are large tasks that progress chronologically. When one milestone is met, another begins.\nIf the goal is building an apartment building, important milestones would include purchasing the land, getting the building permits, laying the building foundation, constructing the frame, and so on until the building is completed. Identify all necessary milestones like these.\nList the milestones in the order they have to be done. For example, you can’t lay the foundation until you have construction permits. Keep your project flow organized like this. <img> Draw clear lines of communication between project stakeholders. Communication is crucial during the entire project process. Different people and departments should have clear lines of communication so every manager is informed of the project’s progress. Before you even start writing the project plan, identify who is in charge of each task and who reports to whom. This will help your team run much more smoothly so they can complete the project on time.\nPart of this workflow is making sure people aren’t bothered with problems that aren’t in their department. For example, the person responsible for landscaping around the building doesn’t need to know if there was an issue with the phone lines in the building, so they shouldn’t be contacted if such a problem occurs.\nPlan on writing this communications workflow in your project plans so all participants know who to contact if they need information. <img> ", "Break milestones into substeps to estimate the cost and schedule. Estimating costs and timelines is difficult for large tasks. Each milestone you identify is too large for an accurate cost and schedule estimate. Divide milestones further into more substeps for completion. Then develop timelines and budgets for each substep.\nIf one milestone is “Lay the building foundation,” there are many substeps involved there. You have to contact potential contractors, get price quotes from them, choose a company, excavate the land, pour the concrete, and so on. Account for each of these substeps when making your estimate. <img> Estimate the cost of each substep to calculate the total project cost. With your milestones broken down into substeps, developing a cost estimate will be much easier. Take each individual substep and research its potential cost. Then use this information to develop an estimate for the total project cost.\nIf you're calculating the cost for the \"Lay the foundation\" milestone of an apartment building, the costs to account for include the price of concrete and other materials, the permits for pouring concrete, and the labor cost for the work. Research the average cost of each step to develop a cost estimate. Use the most up-to-date information you can find so your figures are accurate.\nIf your company has analysts who have worked on these projects before, consult with them on these costs. It’s their job to account for project costs.\nBreak your cost estimate into several different forms. Draw up a total project cost, cost per milestone, and cost per month or quarter. Project sponsors need this information to adjust their expectations and financing. <img> Determine which substeps are dependent on each other. All projects have some steps that can’t be completed until a previous step is done, which impacts the project timeline and schedule. These steps are dependent on each other, and a delay on dependent steps delays the whole project. Other steps are independent, and aren’t necessarily reliant on other steps being completed first. Identify all the substeps that are dependent on each other to develop an accurate calendar for the project.\nFor example, a new building requires construction permits. This means that no work can start until you get these permits, and all other steps are dependent on this step.\nOnce construction starts on an apartment, you can’t start wiring the building until the foundation is constructed. However, you can start doing the landscaping outside while you wire the building, so these two tasks aren’t dependent on each other. <img> Develop a timeline for each milestone. Just as you broke down each milestone into substeps to estimate the cost, do the same to develop a timeline. Research the normal amount of time needed for each substep. Use this information to develop a timeline for each milestone, and finally for the whole project.\nTake the planning stage into account as well. For instance, building permits in your city may take 6 months to process. That means no construction can start for at least 6 months.\nWhile you're waiting for the permits, however, you can start negotiating with construction companies. Then when the permits come through, all the agreements are in place for work to start. Identify steps like these than can happen simultaneously to speed the process.\nWhen estimating project timelines, it’s often best to overestimate a bit. This way you have breathing room if there are any unexpected problems. <img> Name any potential risks that could impact the project. All projects involve certain risks that stakeholders should be aware of. These can range from scheduling delays to permit problems that could endanger the whole project. While researching the budget and schedule, identify all the risks this project could face. If possible, present suggestions that could overcome these setbacks.\nFor example, if you’re planning a building project, one potential risk is the price of raw materials going up and impacting the project budget. You might propose that working fast is the best option for avoiding this risk. Alternatively, you could propose buying certain materials ahead of time and storing them so the project doesn’t encounter unexpected price increases. <img> ", "Demonstrate how the plan addresses your sponsor’s expectations. The main person or people you have to impress with the project plan is the sponsor. If they like your plan, they’ll go ahead with the project. If not, they could end up pulling out and you could lose a lot of money. Begin by addressing how this plan accomplishes the project scope.\nUse clear, simple language when explaining your plan. Avoid jargon as much as you can so there are no miscommunications and everyone is on the same page.\nClear statements like, \"I will show you the three ways that this plan accomplishes our project goals,\" convey your message best. <img> Explain your process for developing the budget and timeline. Sponsors and managers will want to know how you came up with your estimates. Be ready to briefly explain your procedure. While explaining, name any potential variables or risks that could impact these projections, and how the project might account for them.\nYou don’t have to go through every calculation you made. Start by presenting the estimate for each milestone, and give a summary of how you reached that conclusion. If anyone wants more information, be prepared to go into more detail.\nBe concise and direct when explaining the budget. For example, state, \"I've calculated a total budget of $15 million for this project. This includes $7 million for material costs, $1 million for permits, $5 million in labor costs, and $2 million in land purchases. I developed these estimates by researching the normal expenses for construction in this area last year. I'm happy to explain these calculations further if anyone wants more detail.\" <img> Provide a complete copy of the project plan to all stakeholders. You won’t be reading the entire project plan word for word in the meeting, and some stakeholders may want more information. Provide a full copy of your report to each stakeholder, either electronically or on paper. Allow them enough time to review it and get back to you with suggestions.\nIf your team has a shared cloud folder or uses a communication software, upload the plan here. Also print off some paper copies to bring to the meeting.\nYour stakeholders may want a summary of the information without the entire report. Provide a handout that hits all the major points in your plan. <img> Ask for feedback and revisions. Revising the project plan is a normal part of the process. It’s likely that at least one stakeholder will have suggested changes to the project plan. Ask the team for feedback or criticisms. If someone suggests a change, bring it up with the whole team. If they agree, make the revision to the plan.\nStating, \"I'm confident that I've been comprehensive with this project plan, but I welcome any feedback or suggestions,\" shows that you're happy with the plan you produced but are flexible enough to work with a team as well.\nTake concerns from project managers seriously. They are the ones who have to carry the project out, and if they think one of your estimates is unrealistic you should consider revising it. <img> " ]

[ "Practice patience. You need to be patient, since it can take a while to determine the right medication for you and it may take a few tries. You should give your medication four to six weeks to start working.\nRecognize the long timeline. Antidepressants take different amounts of time to start working for different people. You may notice some benefit from a medication after only a day or two. However, it may take four to six weeks for the antidepressant to kick in.\nIf your antidepressant has not started working after six weeks, you should speak to your doctor about alternative medications. <img> Watch for improvement in your symptoms. Use a diary to keep track of your symptoms on a daily basis. If you felt like your future was hopeless prior to starting the medication, you might want to consider how you feel about your future after taking the medication for two weeks. If you feel like you are slow and have a hard time concentrating, see if these symptoms have changed at all while on the medication. \nUse a depression screening test to track your symptoms. You can find depression screening scales online. Complete the symptom questionnaire and view your results to see if they change over time.\nYou can also use health diaries or mobile applications to track your symptoms. <img> See if you feel any better. If you start to have more energy for the day and feel less depressed, this is a sign that your medication has started working. If you feel better after two to six weeks, this can be a very good sign. <img> Identify side effects. Although the drug may be helping with some of your symptoms, it may also be resulting in side effects. You should pay attention to both any improvements and any side effects. Although the new wave of antidepressant types such as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) and serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs) have relatively fewer side effects than older types of medications, they still involve many side effects. These side effects commonly include a lower sex drive, a dry mouth, nausea, insomnia, anxiousness and restlessness, gaining weight, sleepiness, constipation and diarrhea. Typically, side effects will emerge prior to the benefits of the treatment. However, you should also tell your doctor if you are experiencing side effects.\nIf your side effects do not go away, you should talk to your doctor about alternative depression medication.\nIf some of your symptoms are getting better but you are experiencing unpleasant side effects, you should talk to your doctor. <img> Watch for warning signs that the antidepressant is not working. It is important to look for signs that your antidepressant is not working. There are a variety of warning signs such as mood swings, suicidal thoughts and increased energy accompanied by the blues. In particular, keep an eye out for the following signs that your antidepressant is not working:\nIf you feel you have way more energy but still feel down, this may be a bad sign. Some medications start working but do not function correctly for your condition. If this is the case, you will have more energy but will still feel blue. Talk to your doctor if this is the case.\nIf you feel better right away after starting a medication, it may be a sign that the medication may be inappropriate for you. It usually takes a while for antidepressants to influence your brain chemistry. If you feel immediate improvement, you may be experiencing a side effect or placebo effect. In either case, talk to your doctor.\nIf your depression gets worse or you start to experience horrible mood swings, this is a sign that your antidepressant is not working properly. You should talk to your doctor.\nAll antidepressants carry an increased risk of suicidal thinking and behavior in children, adolescents, and young adults between the ages of 18 and 24 during the first two months. If you or someone you know is contemplating suicide, has worsening depression, or has behavioral changes, contact a doctor immediately. Do not stop taking your medication unless your doctor tells you to. <img> ", "Purchase a mental health application. A variety of mobile applications are available that help you track your depression. These applications have a variety of tools that can help you monitor your depression, learn new activities and communicate your experience to a medical professional. <img> Download the Start application. The Start application, which is designed by Iodine and part of Apple’s Care Kit medical development tools, helps you track depression. It lets you share your data directly with a medical professional. You take a short questionnaire at two week intervals, which is called the Patient Health Questionnaire. Taking the questionnaire helps you determine whether your symptoms have improved. You use the application for six weeks, and then use the results to decide with your doctor whether the medication is working. <img> Track your mood with the CBT Self-Help Guide. This is a smart phone diary application that helps you track how you relate and respond to events throughout your day. You write about events in your life, related moods and intensities. This can help you track your depression while taking an antidepressant. If you start it prior to taking an antidepressant, you can use the diary application to determine if your mood has improved after starting an antidepressant. <img> Download MoodKit. This application helps you monitor your mood and learn mood enhancing activities. It can be helpful for mild depression, but is not useful for people with moderate or severe depression. In any case, it can be one tool, amongst others, to help you track your mood while taking antidepressants. <img> Use the T2 Mood Tracker. This application helps you monitor your emotional states and includes a great graphing feature. It can help you monitor your depression so that you can more accurately report your experience to a mental health professional. With accurate tracking and reporting to a mental health professional, you will have a better sense of whether or not the antidepressant is working.\nWhat’s My M3. This application helps you monitor your “M3 score,” which is a number that helps your doctor determine whether or not your mood disorder is treatable. By tracking your M3 while on antidepressants, you can communicate your M3 score to your doctor. <img> ", "Communicate your experience of the antidepressant. Tell your mental health professional how you are feeling in response to the medication. If you have been using a mental health application, use the data you have gathered from monitoring your response to the antidepressant. \nIf you use a diary, review your diary prior to visiting your mental health practitioner. By reviewing your diary, you will have a better sense of your moods, emotions, and responses to the medication.\nIf you have been using the same antidepressant for a long time and it isn’t working like it once did, you should tell your doctor.\nOver time, your body may develop a tolerance to your antidepressant. This may cause your symptoms of depression to return. If you believe this is happening, talk to your doctor. They may adjust your dosage or change your medication. <img> Ask your mental health professional. Using the information you gather from monitoring your mood while on the antidepressant, your doctor should be able to determine whether or not your antidepressant is working. Be sure to tell your doctor about any benefits you experience as well as any side effects that you are experiencing.\nTell your doctor if you skipped any doses. Skipping doses is one cause of a faulty antidepressant, so you need to communicate that information to your doctor.\nIf you are taking other drugs or alcohol while on medication, you need to tell your doctor. This can be another reason for an antidepressant to stop working.\nIf you are experiencing severe side effects, you may need to switch medications.\nDo not change your dosage or stop taking your antidepressant without consulting your doctor. Suddenly quitting the medication could worsen your depression or cause withdrawal symptoms. Your doctor can help you by slowly and safely decreasing the dose, if needed. <img> Inquire into alternative antidepressants. According to a large study, only 37% of people got better after trying just one antidepressant. Your doctor should be able to determine whether or not your current antidepressant is working or whether you need to try a different type of medication. \nThe most popular antidepressants are SSRIs and SNRIs. Another common medication is bupropion, which belongs to a class of antidepressants known as NDRIs. Bupropion is used for depression, seasonal affective disorder and quitting smoking.\nIn addition, there are older types of depression medications such as tricyclics, monoamine oxidase inhibitors and tetracyclics. People respond differently to depression medication so you need to work out a treatment plan with your doctor for your specific condition. You might need to try a different type of antidepressant if your current one is not working. <img> Consider psychotherapy. Combining antidepressant drug therapy with mental health counseling like psychotherapy is usually more effective than taking the drug alone. There are multiple forms of psychotherapy that might help. These include:\n\nCognitive Behavior Therapy: this form of therapy helps you change your way of thinking by identifying how you currently perceive the world and yourself. The therapist will help you create healthier patterns of thinking.\n\nInterpersonal Therapy: this form of therapy helps depression caused by family conflict, loss, relationship problems, social isolation, and major life events such as giving birth.\n\nPsychodynamic Therapy: the therapist helps you resolve unconscious conflicts, like childhood trauma. <img> " ]

[ "It’s possible your teacher still works at the school you attended. Most schools have a directory, which lists their employees and contact info. Go to your old school’s website and look for a tab that says “staff,” “directory,” or “contact us” to see if your old teacher is still there. If they are, you can go visit your old school to see them or send them an email.\nSome school districts and schools do not list teacher information on their website. If you can’t find anything like this, it may not exist. <img> ", "If your teacher has moved on, the school may give you their contact info. Visit the main office when school is in session. Explain that you’re an old student and tell them why you’re trying to reach your old teacher. If the school keeps records with contact info, they may pass along a phone number or email address.\nIf someone at the school remembers you, ask them for help. Even if the main office won’t lend you a hand, an old teacher who knows you just might. <img> ", "You may be able to find their contact info this way. Put your teacher’s name in quotes to only pull up results that match their name. Try searching for their name plus the school you went to combined with the city where the school is located.\nExample searches might include: “’Dan Garcia’ St. Joseph’s Cincinnati,” or “Ms. Swavorsky Munster High School Springfield Wyoming.”\nEven if they aren’t at the same school, their bio on their new school’s website might mention that they worked at your old school, or that they’ve been teaching in your city for a certain number of years. <img> ", "LinkedIn and Facebook are going to be your best options here. On LinkedIn, search your teacher’s name and look for connections who worked at your old school. You can also pull up your school and scroll through the current and past employees. On Facebook, search their name in the search bar. Look for profile photos that look familiar or profiles that live in the town where you went to school.\nYou can try searching Instagram, Twitter, and other social media sites if you’d like. But LinkedIn and Facebook are the only platforms where people use their own names by default.\nOn Facebook, look for profiles with mutual friends. A lot of students friend their old teachers once they graduate. <img> ", "Even if you haven’t spoken to your teacher, an old classmate may have. Shoot your old classmates texts or message them on social media to ask if they’ve spoken to the teacher you’re looking for. Wanting to reach out to an old teacher is super common, and one of your old schoolmates may have already done the work for you.\nYou might send your classmate a message like, “Hey! Long time no talk. I hope you’re doing well. Random question: do you know where Ms. Palmer is these days? I’ve been trying to get in touch with her.” <img> ", "If you’re in contact with any old staff, they may be able to help you. Are you friends with one other old teacher on Facebook? Reach out to them and let them know you’re looking for an old teacher. Even if they don’t have a number or email address for you, they’ll definitely help you search for the teacher (plus, they’ll know who to ask).\nIt helps if you really drive home that you want to thank the teacher you’re looking for. Teachers and school staff really love hearing from students who want to express gratitude, so they’re sure to lend a hand. <img> ", "If anyone would have the inside scoop, it’s the alumni. If you still can’t find your old teacher, look online or call the school to see if there’s an alumni association. If there is, contact them and ask the head of the association if anyone knows how to reach your old teacher. If anyone would have a lead for you, it’ll be the people in this association.\nThis is an especially good idea if you went to school in a smaller town and/or if you attended a school with a tight-knit community.\nYour old teacher may even be a member of the alumni association—especially if they went to that school growing up.\nIf there’s a local teacher’s association, you could try contacting them. <img> ", "If your old teacher was certified, their records may be open to the public. Some school districts and states maintain open records for certified teachers. Check your state’s education department’s website and your school district’s website for a teacher lookup tool. It’s not a sure thing, but they may have an email address for your old teacher.\nUnfortunately, if your state/district doesn’t publish certification info or your old teacher was never certified, this may be a dead end.\nIf you went to a public school, check to see if the district union’s membership records are public. It’s extremely unlikely that they are, but it’s worth a shot. <img> ", "There are a few online tools you can use to search for individual people. A lot of these “background check” and “people finder” sites are shady. However, a few of them should be helpful here—especially if you’ve already gathered some other information. Here are some reputable options:\nTrue People Search is probably the cleanest free tool out there. If you have your teacher’s name and city, the site will scour public records and published data to give you contact information.\nSocial Catfish will pull up any public contact information for your old teacher if you have their name and city locked down.\nFamily TreeNow focuses on genealogy, but you can actually pull addresses for people based on their name and city. You’d only be able to write your old teacher a letter, but this should work! <img> " ]

[ "Use a smaller feeding dish. A small ceramic (not plastic) food dish that’s only large enough to hold one feeding block will suffice. The larger the bowl, the more your rat will eat. Small bowls serve as natural portion control. \nMake sure your feeding bowl is sturdy so that it doesn’t tip over as your rat eats.\nYour rat may chew a plastic bowl. <img> Provide fortified food. There are good quality commercial rat foods available through pet stores and veterinary offices. These foods can be found in either “block” or “seed” type forms, and a mixture of both is recommended. If you’re trying to help your rat lose weight, feed it no more than 3 tablespoons per day.\nRat blocks contain a complete supply of vitamins and minerals.\nAvoid the generic “rodent formula” foods available at pet stores, as these often don’t provide an adequate amount of protein for your rat. <img> Limit your rat’s treats. One tablespoon of chopped fruit or vegetable is the best treat for your rat. Including apples, strawberries, bananas, and squash as treats rather than regular part of your rat’s diet will help support its weight loss. Feed treats in a separate dish from your rats regular food and make sure to clean the treat bowl daily. \nFrozen peas in a dish of water is a wonderful summertime treat that your rat can enjoy year-round.\nAvoid sticky foods like peanut butter as they can create a choking hazard.\nFeed your rat a hard treat, like a dog biscuit, once per week to keep its teeth sharp.\nLike humans, rats will gain weight if they eat foods that are high in sugar and fat. <img> Feed your rat at night. Rats are nocturnal creatures by nature, which means they’ll tend to be most active during the nighttime hours. It’s good to feed them early in the evening, when they’re most likely to be alert and awake.\nIf you notice small stashes of food around its cage, it’s likely you’re overfeeding it and should cut back on the amount of food you’re providing.\nDon’t skip your rat’s meals, or your rat may become hungry, anxious and unhappy. <img> Wash your rat’s food bowl daily. Make sure that it doesn’t get caked with old food, which can lead to diseases. Scrub old food off with a wire brush or sponge, and use plenty of soap and water. Allow the food bowl to air dry.\nIt’s a good idea to wash out the food bowl at the same time as you clean out the rest of your rat’s cage.\nPlace your rat’s food bowl at an opposite end of the cage from the rat’s bathroom area. <img> Check for specific conditions. If your rat looks like it’s gained weight, it’s possible that it’s pregnant, particularly if you have more than one rat. The most common reason for bloated-looking abdomen in rats is pregnancy. For any medical conditions in rats, you’ll want to consult with your veterinarian.Other possible conditions that may result in increased size include:\nA tumor in the abdomen. Not only can the tumor cause a bulge in the abdomen, but it can also cause fluid to accumulate in the abdomen.\nLiver and kidney disease, which can cause fluid build up in the abdomen.\nMegacolon is a condition of the nervous system, where the nerves to the large intestine don’t effectively allow for the colon to push out feces. As a result, the colon becomes backed up. Both the colon and the stools become larger than usual.\nUrinary blockage also can result in a rat’s appearing swollen and overweight. If the bladder is blocked, then the urine can become backed up, feeling like a balloon in the center lower abdomen. <img> Steer clear of hazardous foods. While rats may enjoy a wide and varied diet similar to your own, there are certain foods that are hazardous to your rat. Dried corn, for example, has high levels of fungal contaminants which have been linked to liver cancer in rats.\nYou’ll also want to limit the amount of nitrates in your rat’s diet. Nitrates are found in beets, celery, eggplant, lettuce, cucumber, radishes, spinach, collards and turnip greens.\nNever give your rat any food that’s moldy or spoiled. <img> ", "Provide plenty of exercise for your rat. Rats are intelligent animals who need a great deal of mental stimulation and activity. If you’re trying to help your rat lose weight, making sure it has plenty of activities will help it stay healthy and happy. \nProvide tunnels, igloos, ropes, ladders, blocks, and child or baby safe toys for your rat to play with.\nWooden gnawing blocks make great chew toys. You can also offer rawhide chew sticks or hard dog biscuits.\nOld soup bones or chicken bones are fine for a rat to chew on. <img> Try an exercise wheel. Your rat might enjoy running on an exercise wheel, which is the rodent-version of a treadmill. Make sure the wheel you find is large enough for your rat, and solid (or with very small mesh) to protect the rats’ feet and to avoid a rat tail being caught and damaged.\nNever get a metal wheel with rungs or a crossbar which could get your rat’s tail tangled in it.\nNot all rats will enjoy running on an exercise wheel, and some may use it only for napping. However, for those rats who do enjoy it, an exercise wheel can be a great way to run off excess energy. <img> Play every day with your rat. The best thing you can do for your rat is to make sure it has plenty of social interaction with you and your family. Rats are very social, and will get bored and unhappy if left too often alone.\nTake your rat out of his cage for at least an hour every day, snuggling and petting him.\nIt’s a good idea to keep him within one room at a time, with the door closed, so that he can safely explore the whole room. <img> Make your own toys. Your rat will be happy to play with any number of homemade toys. Give him paper towel tubes or PVC pipes to run through. He’ll likely enjoy toys designed for birds, such as ladders, swings or anything he can gnaw on.\nFind a branch from a fruit tree, and place it inside his cage. This will give him something he can climb on and something he can chew on.\nKeeping plenty of toys and activities around for your rat will keep him engaged and interested, and ultimately more healthy and happy. <img> " ]

[ "Try to set aside time every day to practice. Karate is all about structure and discipline. With these principles in mind, it only makes sense to structure your practice. Even when practicing at home, it's important to stick to the same practice time each day as much as possible. By sticking to a schedule, progress is guaranteed and your work goes much further!\nSelect a time that doesn't interfere with dinner plans or schoolwork.\nFind a friend that's willing to stick it out and practice the same days with you! <img> Wear comfortable clothes like baggy shorts or sweatpants with a T-shirt. Most karate classes will recommend that you wear something comfortable and loose. You can also purchase a traditional karate uniform from an online supplier if you want to really get in the zone. <img> Purchase a body opponent bag so it's easier to practice on your own. If you're willing to make the investment, you can get a body opponent bag from an online supplier or local martial arts shop. This will make it much easier to warm up and practice without a friend.\nIf you have friends that want to learn karate, have them practice with you! <img> Stretch and workout before your training starts to prepare your body. Always get a good 15-minute stretch in and make sure it covers all aspects of the body: arms, quads, calves, groin muscles, back, neck, ankles, and wrists. For workouts, try regular crunches, full-body crunches, regular pushups, triangle pushups, fingertip pushups, squats, and lunges.\nTo stretch your thighs, stand on one foot, bend one leg back into your corresponding hand, and apply pressure toward your body.\nTry Chinese splits, which involves standing upright, placing your hands on the floor, and then extending one leg back and one forward.\nFace a wall and spread your legs as far out as you can. Each time you spread wider, slide yourself closer to the wall. Gauge your improvement by how close your chest is to the wall each time. <img> Warm up with your stance before you begin practicing specific technique. Stances are the very basis of your basics—no matter what stance you're in, your knees should always be bent! Without a good stance, you can't do anything else! You should be able to perform a stance anywhere, whether you're on a sandy beach, rocky mountain, or urban terrain.\nWarm up with your stance before jumping into defensive and offensive techniques. <img> ", "Practice lowering your center of gravity. Each style you train in will have its own set of blocks. But no matter what style you train in, all of your blocks should pass through the center of the body. Typically, this is accomplished by bending your knees to lower your center of gravity and keeping your feet wide outside of your shoulder width.\nEvery time you block an attack, be sure that you are not falling off balance. If you are, this is a sign that you are not lowering your center of gravity effectively.\nIf you have a body opponent bag, push it away from you while maintaining your center of gravity. As it moves back toward you, practice blocking it while keeping your center of gravity. <img> High block by bringing either arm across your body to your forehead. Visualize your opponent trying to punch you on top of your head. Always make sure your arm is right in front of your forehead as you block. Keep your palm facing towards your opponent and your arm tilted up at a 45-degree angle. Make sure your arm is covering your whole head.\nUse this block if someone is trying to strike you on top of your head with their bare hand.\nImagine you are blocking a punch from both a left and right arm to get comfortable with this motion. <img> Forward block by rotating a bit past your centerline. Use the arm on whichever side your opponent is striking (or whichever side you visualize them striking) and move it across your body so that it touches your opposite shoulder. From here, bring it back to its proper side while ensuring that your hips return to your base stance with it. Make sure your arm does not go past your shoulder and keep your palm facing towards your opponent.\nMake sure your hand reaches as high as your head.\nUse this block to defend a round punch coming to the side of the head.\nWhether you practice with a friend or alone, always consider punches coming from both the left and right side. <img> Cross block by moving either arm to your ear and across your face. Your hand should move as high as your head. Keep your arm tilted out at a 45-degree angle and your palm facing towards you. Make sure that your arm goes fully across your face.\nTurn your hips in the direction of your hand movement to increase the block's power.\nUse this block to defend a strike coming straight into your face. <img> Downward circle block by bringing the opponent's arm down past you. Practice this block with a friend—doing so alone is difficult. Keep your defensive palm facing outward and your offensive arm titled at a 45-degree angle. Block the punch with your offensive forearm and step outside of your opponent's punch. Place your defensive palm on the opponent's offensive shoulder and your offensive palm on their forearm and guide them downward past you.\nGuide the opponent's punch by using their force against them.\nUse this block to defend a punch coming into the stomach. <img> ", "Learn how to throw basic Karate punches. Stand with your feet shoulder width apart and hold one fist straight out in front of you. Keep your other arm bent in an L-shape with your fist facing upward. When you punch, bring your bent arm forward and turn your fist downward. Always use your hips—70% of the power from your punch comes from here. Tilt your fist at a 45-degree angle downward to keep the wrist stable— those are the only knuckles that have bones connecting to the arm bone!\nAlways tilt your wrist downward so you are hitting with your first 2 knuckles, also known as the unit knuckles. This also prevents you from hyperextending your elbow.\nTwist your wrist back to facing upward as you draw the punch back to release your locked elbow. <img> Practice snap kicking motions and progress your speed. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart. Raise your knee a bit past your waist if you're kicking to the waist or almost all the way to the chest or higher to kick to the face. Keep your toes pointed down as your knee is raised. Now, extend your leg straight while keeping your foot straight and pointing toward your opponent. Continue practicing this motion and increase the speed as you get more comfortable with it.\nStart by practicing waist-level snap kicks before progressing higher.\nBe sure to strike blade of your foot with heaviest impact at the heeled of the bladed foot.\nUse these kicks to lighten up your opponent and throw them off balance. <img> Practice thrust kicks to push your opponent back. Lift your knee toward your chest and turn your shoulders as you raise it. Flex your ankle upward toward the shin. Thrust the bottom of your foot toward the target and strike it (or them) with your heel or the bottom of your foot.\nPractice thrust kicks on a punching bag and increase their force as you get more comfortable.\nOnce you're comfortable with your kicks, practice on a friend that knows Karate and is comfortable blocking. <img> " ]

[ "Wear cotton underwear to reduce moisture. Light cotton underwear is best because it is breathable and doesn’t trap moisture. If you don’t regularly wear this type of underwear, then switch and start doing so.\nYou could also wear cotton-crotch underwear if the whole piece isn’t made of cotton.\nOn the other hand, avoid underwear made of silk or nylon. These could trap moisture and cause yeast infections. <img> Change out of wet or sweaty clothes as soon as possible. Staying in wet or sweaty clothes could stimulate yeast growth. If you exercise, go swimming, or get wet in any way, change and put on dry clothes and underwear as soon as you can.\nEspecially remember to change out of your bathing suit as soon as you’re done swimming. <img> Avoid any fragranced feminine hygiene products. Fragranced or deodorant tampons, pads, and sprays can all throw off your vaginal pH. This could stimulate yeast growth and cause an infection. It’s best to avoid any of these products and stick with non-fragranced types to avoid yeast infections. <img> Use a condom every time you have sex. While yeast infections aren’t STIs, infections after sex are common because a lot of bacteria enters your vagina. Using a condom every time can prevent bacteria from causing an infection.\nUsing a condom at all times is also important to prevent other STIs.\nEven if you take hormonal birth control, this won’t protect you from infections. Always use a condom as well. <img> Avoid douching to prevent infections from starting. While some women like using a douche and feel cleaner afterward, this is a bad idea. Douching removes all the bacteria from your vagina, including healthy types. This could cause yeast to grow out of control and start an infection. It’s best to avoid douching altogether and only use plain water to rinse your vagina. <img> Try taking oral probiotics to see if that helps. Probiotics could increase the number of good bacteria in your vagina and stop yeast from growing. Get an oral lactobacillus supplement, which is the good bacteria in your vagina, and take it as directed. This isn’t a surefire way to prevent infections, but it might help.\nSome doctors recommend taking probiotics if you’re on antibiotics. This might help you avoid yeast infections from the medication.\nYou can also get more probiotics from yogurt and kefir, both of which contain lactobacillus. <img> ", "Opt for medical treatments rather than unverified home remedies. There are a lot of remedies for yeast infections on the internet, but don't use them. Some common home remedies include adding vinegar to a bath or putting yogurt, essential oils, or garlic inside your vagina. These are all harmful and could cause other infections. Only use medically-approved treatment methods. <img> Visit your doctor to confirm that you have a yeast infection first. While it might be uncomfortable, doctors recommend scheduling a visit whenever you think you have a yeast infection before trying to treat it yourself. Even if you’ve had a yeast infection before, there are other infections that could cause similar symptoms, so it’s important to get a proper diagnosis. That way, you can take the right steps to treat it properly.\nThe doctor will examine your pelvis and vagina, and also take a sample to test for yeast. These tests confirm whether or not you have a yeast infection. <img> Apply the topical antifungal that your doctor recommends. In most cases, your doctor will tell you to use a topical cream or suppository to kill the fungus. Most of these are available over-the-counter, but your doctor may try a prescription-strength medication if you have yeast infections often. Apply the cream or suppository to your vagina as directed, and the infection should clear up within a week. Most topical treatments follow a once-a-day course for 3-7 days, but follow the instructions for the type that you use.\nSome topical treatments for yeast infections are Monistat, Vagistat-3, and Terconazole.\nSuppositories and creams for yeast infections come with a plastic applicator. Lay back and insert the applicator tip into your vagina. Then squeeze the tube to release the cream or push the plastic plunger on the applicator to release the suppository. Wash your hands and the applicator when you're done.\nIf you're using a suppository, it’s best to apply the medication before bed so the suppository doesn’t fall out. <img> Take oral medication if your doctor prescribes it. Your doctor may also try an oral antifungal medication to fight the infection, especially if you’re prone to yeast infections. These are powerful medications, so you may only have to take 1 or 2 doses to clear the infection. They usually work within 1-3 days.\nA common oral antifungal is Diflucan. A single-course of the medication is common, but you may have to take another dose a few days later if the symptoms don’t go away.\nPregnant women shouldn’t take oral medication for yeast infections, so your doctor won’t prescribe this if you’re pregnant or may be pregnant. <img> Finish the entire course of the medication. Whether you use oral or topical medication for your infection, it’s very important to take the entire course of the medication as directed. If you stop early, then the infection might come back. Follow all of the dosing directions and take the medication for as long as the doctor tells you to.\nDepending on the type, topical medication could take 1-7 days to work.\nOral medications usually take 1-3 days to work, depending on the type. <img> ", "Use only water to clean your genitals. Keeping your genitals clean can help prevent discomfort and shorten the infection, but don’t use soap. Soap can change your vagina pH and make more yeast grow. Simply rinse with plain water to keep yourself clean.\nDry yourself well after bathing. Moisture can help yeast grow. <img> Take a warm bath to relieve discomfort. Yeast infections are very uncomfortable, even if you’re treating them with medication. A warm bath could soothe the pain while you wait for the infection to heal. Try soaking for 20 minutes a few times per day to make yourself more comfortable while the infection clears.\nDon’t add any bubbles or fragrances to the bath. These can cause irritation and make a yeast infection worse. A popular home remedy is adding vinegar to the bath, but there's no evidence this works and doctors don’t recommend it.\nMake sure the water is warm, not hot. Hot water is irritating and can make the pain worse.\nYou may also find a cool bath more soothing. Experiment to see what makes you more comfortable. <img> Use a cold pack to reduce the pain. Just like a bath, a cold pack could help relieve the pain while you wait for the infection to clear. Try wrapping a cold compress in a towel and holding it against your genitals for 15-20 minutes at a time to relieve the pain. You can repeat this as often as you have to until the infection heals.\nWear pants or underwear while using a cold pack so you don’t introduce more bacteria into your vagina.\nAlways wash the towel after each use. Also clean the cold pack before and after using it so you don't spread infections. <img> Avoid touching or scratching the area. This causes more irritation and could make the infection worse. It might be tempting, but you’ll be much better off if you stop yourself from itching. Use cold packs or baths instead. <img> Refrain from sex until the infection is gone. Sex during a yeast infection is not only painful, but it will also introduce more bacteria into your vagina. This could make the infection worse and prevent it from healing. Avoid sexual contact until the infection is completely clear. <img> " ]

[ "Level out your cake layers with a knife so they are flat. Use a bread knife to cut off the top layer of each cake. Try to make a flat line on the top of each cake so that it creates an even, flat top.\nIt will be much easier to stack your cakes if they’re already level. <img> Frost your cake tiers with buttercream so that they are totally smooth. Add a thick layer of buttercream frosting to your cake tiers and use a flat spatula to spread it out. Smooth the frosting out with a bread dough scraper so that it’s totally smooth.Tip: You can also use a layer of fondant over the top and sides of your cake to make sure they’re perfectly smooth. <img> Spread a thin layer of buttercream frosting on a cake plate. Make sure the cake plate you are using is a little bit bigger than your bottom tier. With a flat spatula, spread a thin layer of frosting into the center of the cake plate so that your bottom tier won’t wiggle around.\nYou can find cake plates at most home goods stores. <img> Place your bottom tier in the center of the cake plate. Pick your bottom tier up with a flat spatula, and try to touch it as little as possible. Carefully position your bottom tier on the cake plate so that it’s centered. <img> Mark the diameter of the next cake plate on top of the tier. Cake plates, or cake boards, are round discs made of cardboard or plastic that each tier sits on top of, so it’s important to know how large they are before you start stacking your cakes. Position the cake plate for the next tier on the center of the bottom tier, then use a knife to gently outline it on the top of the bottom tier. After that, take the cake plate off and set it aside for later.\nYou can make your own cake boards out of cardboard by cutting out circles that are the exact diameter of each tier, or you can purchase pre-cut cake plates or boards from a home goods store. <img> ", "Measure the height of your bottom tier. The dowels that you use will depend on the height of your cake tiers. Use a ruler or a tape measure for an accurate measurement.\nYou can also insert a large straw into the center of the cake and then see how far it goes in. <img> Cut 4 plastic dowels as tall as your bottom tier. Mark the height of your cake onto each dowel with a pencil. Then, use PVC cutters to snip the excess length off of each dowel so that they fit the height of your cake.\nYou can find plastic dowels at most home goods stores. They are thicker and more sturdy than wooden dowels. <img> Push the dowels in a diamond around the border of the cake board imprint. Take a look at the impression you made on the top of your tier with your knife. Push 1 dowel into the top of the circle, 1 into the bottom, and the other 2 on both sides of the circle. Make sure they are spaced about the same length apart.\nThe top of the dowels should sit flush with the top of the tier so that they don’t stick out. <img> Lay a cake board on top of the bottom tier. Use the cake board that is the same diameter as the next cake tier to protect the top of the bottom tier. Place it on top of the dowels and make sure that it sits flat.\nSome plastic cake boards have dowels attached to the bottom. If yours does, you can push your cake board into the holes that you made with the plastic dowels. <img> Set the next tier on top of the cake board. Carefully pick up the second tier of the cake with a baking spatula, being careful not to disturb the frosting. Set it gently onto the cake board and then smooth out the frosting if you need to.Tip: Try to touch your cake tiers as little as possible to avoid smudging the frosting. <img> Measure the height of the second tier and insert plastic dowels into it. Find the height of the next tier of your cake and then use your PVC cutters to cut 4 plastic dowels down to size. Position them in a diamond shape in the center of the cake so that they are about 0.5 inches (1.3 cm) apart from each other. <img> Place the top tier on top without a cake board underneath. If you are working with 4 tiers, insert dowels and cake boards between the second and third tier. If you only have 3, don’t put a cake board on top of the middle tier.\nThe top tier doesn’t need a cake board because it’s the smallest one, so it will just be supported by the dowels underneath it. <img> ", "Cut a bamboo stick to the height of your stack. Hold up a sharpened bamboo dowel and mark the top of your cake stack with a pencil. Use your PVC cutters or a knife to cut the excess bamboo stick off so that it is the height of your stack.\nYou can find bamboo sticks at most home goods stores.\nBamboo sticks work well for securing cakes because they won’t get soggy like normal wooden dowels and they aren’t as thick as plastic ones. <img> Push the bamboo stick through the center of your stack. Position the bamboo stick in the middle of the top tier. Slowly push it down through all the tiers of your cake until it reaches the bottom. If any of the stick pokes out of the top of the cake, cut it off.Tip: If you are having trouble pushing the bamboo stick through, use a hammer to pound it into the cake. <img> Fill the hole in the top of the cake with frosting. Since the bamboo stick went through the top of the cake, there may be a small, but visible, hole in the top tier. Use some buttercream frosting to patch the hole in the top tier so that you can’t see it anymore.\nUse frosted flowers or a cake topper to cover up the uneven surface at the top of your cake if you’d like even more coverage. <img> " ]
