[ "Connect your Xbox 360 to an HDTV. Your Xbox 360 will need to be connected to a TV that supports 720p or higher resolutions (720p, 1080i, and 1080p). Nearly all modern widescreen TVs support this, but some older tube TVs will not. If you aren't connected to an HDTV, you won't be able to play splitscreen.\nIf you know you already have your Xbox 360 connected to an HDTV and can play games at HD resolutions, skip down to the next section. <img> Use an HDMI or component (five prong) cable to connect. In order to display an HD image, you'll need to connect your Xbox 360 to your HDTV using either an HDMI or component cable. Component cables have three video prongs and two audio prongs. The video prongs are red, blue, and green. The audio prongs are red and white. The Xbox 360 also has a sixth yellow prong, but you won't be using this.\nYou can use any HDMI cable with the Xbox 360, but if you want to use a component cable, you'll need one made specifically for the 360.\nThe early versions of the Xbox 360 do not have an HDMI port, so you'll need to use the component cable.\nComposite (RCA) cables will not work. These are three prong cables with a red, white, and yellow prong. This cable is not capable of transmitting HD video, and thus will not allow for splitscreen in Minecraft. <img> Open the Xbox 360's main menu. You can do this by pressing the Guide button on your controller. <img> Navigate to \"Settings\" → \"System\" → \"Console Settings\" → \"Display.\" This will allow you to check your display settings to ensure that you are displaying in HD. <img> Check the \"Current Setting\" entry. This should be \"720p,\" \"1080p,\" or \"1080i.\" Other resolutions will prevent splitscreen from working. Select one of the compatible resolutions from the list of available resolutions. If you don't see \"720p,\" \"1080p,\" or \"1080i,\" you may not be using the correct cable. <img> ", "Play local splitscreen when it's you and up to three other people. If you just want to play with some friends or family in the same room, you'll want to play a local splitscreen game. None of the players will need an Xbox Live Gold account to play, but they will need local Xbox 360 accounts. You won't be able to play online while you're playing a local splitscreen game.\nIf you want to play splitscreen as well as play online with others, see the next section. You'll need at least one Xbox Live Gold account to play online splitscreen. <img> Create local accounts for everyone that is going to play. Each player will need to have a local account before you start Minecraft. You can create local accounts by opening the Xbox Guide menu, pressing X to sign out, and then selecting \"Create Profile.\" Create enough profiles for everyone that wants to play.\nYou don't need to join Xbox Live at the end of the profile creation process in order to play local splitscreen. <img> Create a new world or load an existing one. You can start local splitscreen with any of your existing worlds, or you can start a new one from scratch. <img> Uncheck the \"Online game\" box before starting the game. Before you select \"Load\" or \"Create World,\" uncheck the \"Online game\" box. This will allow up to three other people to play locally without an Xbox Live account. <img> Start the game. The game will begin with the first player taking up the whole screen. <img> Turn on the second controller and press ▷START. This will open the Sign In screen.\nIf this menu doesn't appear, you either didn't uncheck \"Online game\" or you aren't using an HDTV. <img> Select the account the second player will use. The second player can choose any account on the system. The account will need to have been created before starting Minecraft in order to select it. <img> Repeat for other players. You can sign in with up to three other controllers for a total of four players. <img> ", "Play online to play with Xbox Live friends and local friends. You can play splitscreen online with your Xbox Live friends. This allows up to four people to play locally with up to four other people online, for a total of eight players. This requires at least one Xbox Live Gold account. Local and Silver accounts will not be able to join the game; extra players will need to sign in as Guests for the Xbox Live Gold's account, or use their own Xbox Live Gold accounts.\nMake sure you've previously signed into the console with all of the Gold accounts you intend to use. You only need one Gold account for up to four players. <img> Start Minecraft while logged in with an Xbox Live gold account. The first player controller should be signed in with an Xbox Live Gold account before starting Minecraft. <img> Create a new world or load an existing one. You can play an online splitscreen game with any of your existing worlds. You can also join online games being played by people on your Friends list. <img> Ensure that \"Online game\" is checked and start the game. If you're loading a world or creating a new one, make sure that the \"Online game\" box is checked before selecting \"Load\" or \"Create World.\" <img> Sign in the players that want to join. The \"Sign In\" window will appear. Additional players can press A and sign in with Guest accounts. Guest accounts must sign in now before the game starts. Other Xbox Live Gold accounts can join the game at any time, but Guest accounts must sign in at the start.\nOnce the game begins, only other Xbox Live Gold accounts will be able to join. <img> " ]

[ "Assemble your safety gear. You will need eye protection, a lab coat or heavy long sleeve shirt to protect yourself from splashes, and acid-resistant (latex or nitrile) gloves. You should also keep a box of baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) on hand to neutralize any acid spills.\nSulfuric acid is highly corrosive. Be careful not to spill or splash it.\nIf you get sulfuric acid on your skin, immediately flush your skin with soap and cool water for at least 15 minutes, and seek medical attention.\nIf you splash sulfuric acid in your eyes, flush your eyes for at least 30 minutes with cool water and seek medical attention. WEAR GOGGLES to prevent this from happening!\nIf you spill acid on a surface, cover the spill with baking soda. Wait for the bubbling to stop. Then carefully wipe up all affected surfaces with a sponge or paper towels, and wash all of the material collected down the sink with plenty of water. <img> Assemble your equipment. You will need a glass beaker or jar to perform the experiment in, and a glass measuring cup with milliliter gradations, or a glass eyedropper. You may also need a glass stir stick or spatula for retrieving excess copper pieces from the solution, and a scale to weight the copper.\nDo not use metal or plastic measuring spoons, as they will react with the acid. <img> Find a suitable workspace. This experiment will put off hydrogen (h2) gas, which is extremely combustible, and should only be done outdoors or under a laboratory vent hood, away from any open flames or ignition sources. You should also set up your experiment on an acid resistant surface, preferably one that is glass, or specifically chemical resistant.\nIf you don't have a chemical-resistant surface to work on, you should at least put a sheet of thick cardboard under your work area. The sulfuric acid will dissolve the cardboard, but slowly enough that you can neutralize the spill with baking soda before it eats clear through. <img> Assemble your materials. For this you will need 30% hydrogen peroxide, and concentrated (98%) sulfuric acid. Both of these can be purchased at a scientific supply company, although the hydrogen peroxide can also be ordered from major online retailers. You will also need a few inches of copper wire, or some chunks of copper pipe, available at any hardware store. <img> Create the acid solution. Place 10 milliliters (0.34 fl oz) 30% hydrogen peroxide in a beaker. Then add 3 milliliters (0.10 fl oz) concentrated sulfuric acid. This is called \"Piranha solution\" and will heat up quickly, so be extremely careful.\nNever attempt to cover a beaker or vessel containing Piranha solution; it can explode. <img> Add the copper. Carefully place about 3g of copper wire or metal chunks into the solution.\nDo not use pennies for this experiment, as they contain a lot of metals besides copper and may cause unexpected reactions. <img> Watch the reaction take place. Bubbles will begin to form around the copper, and the clear liquid in the jar will begin to turn blue. Leave the copper in the solution until the bubbles stop forming. This can take several minutes, depending on the temperature and concentration of your solution. Carefully lift out any remaining copper with a glass spatula or stirring rod. You should now be left with an aqueous copper sulfate solution. <img> Let the solution evaporate. If you wish to collect the copper sulfate crystals, pour the copper sulfate solution into a shallow glass dish and leave it exposed to air for several days while the remaining liquid evaporates. Remember that the solution is still caustic, and use care in handling it. You can then use your copper sulfate crystals in various experiments, or to grow larger crystals. <img> Dispose of excess copper sulfate solution correctly. Copper sulfate is toxic to fish, plants, and other wildlife and should not be poured into lakes or streams, or rinsed down the storm drain. Copper sulfate is a common ingredient in many drain cleaners, and small quantities, like what this experiment will yield, can be safely diluted with water and rinsed down the sink. <img> ", "Assemble your safety gear. Nitric acid is considerably more hazardous than sulfuric acid, so be very cautious during this experiment. You will need eye protection, acid-resistant gloves and a lab coat. <img> Find a suitable work space. Because of the risks involved with using nitric acid, this experiment should only done in a laboratory setting. As this experiment will put off toxic fumes (NO2 gas), it must be done under a fume hood. <img> Assemble your equipment. You will need a glass beaker or jar to perform the experiment in, a glass measuring cup with milliliter gradations, or a glass eyedropper, and a glass stirring rod or spatula to remove excess copper chunks, and a scale to measure the copper. <img> Assemble your materials. For this you will need water, nitric acid (70%), and concentrated (98%) sulfuric acid. These can be purchased at a scientific supply company. You will also need a few inches of copper wire, or some chunks of copper pipe, available at any hardware store. <img> Create the acid solution. First place 30 milliliters (1 fl oz) of water in the beaker. Then add 5 milliliters (0.17 fl oz) of nitric acid and 3 milliliters (0.10 fl oz) concentrated sulfuric acid. <img> Add the copper. Carefully drop about 6g of copper wire or metal chunks into the solution. Stand back away from the fumes, and watch the reaction take place. A brown gas will form, bubbles will form as the copper dissolves, and the liquid in the beaker will turn blue. The reaction is complete when the bubbling stops.\nThe gas that results from the reaction is toxic, and should not be inhaled. <img> Let the solution evaporate. If you wish to collect the copper sulfate crystals, pour the copper sulfate solution into a shallow glass dish and leave it exposed to air for several days while the remaining liquid evaporates. Remember that the solution is still caustic, and use care in handling it. You can then use your copper sulfate crystals in various experiments, or to grow larger crystals. <img> Dispose of excess copper sulfate solution correctly.

The sulfuric acid will dissolve the cardboard, but slowly enough that you can neutralize the spill with baking soda before it eats clear through. <img> Assemble your equipment. You will needs a 6-volt battery, a glass jar or beaker, 2 lengths of copper wire, concentrated sulfuric acid solution (available at scientific supply stores), a glass measuring beaker or eyedropper, and water.\nIf you do not have access to concentrated sulfuric acid solution, you can use battery acid, which is 30-35% sulfuric acid and is available at hardware and auto parts stores. <img> Create the sulfuric acid solution. Add 30 milliliters (1 fl oz) of water to the beaker, and 5 milliliters (0.17 fl oz) of concentrated sulfuric acid. If you are using the less concentrated battery solution, add 15 milliliters (0.51 fl oz) of acid to 20ml of water. <img> Set the two wires in the solution so that they are not touching each other. The wires should be an inch or so apart, depending on the size of your container, and should not be touching each other. <img> Connect the wires to the 6-volt battery. One wire should be wrapped around the positive terminal, and one should be wrapped around the negative terminal. <img> Watch the reaction take place. You should see bubble forming at the anode (the wire connected to the negative terminal) but not the cathode, and the solution will begin to turn blue as the copper sulfate is formed. Let the reaction run until the solution is quite blue, and then remove the wires from the solution and disconnect them from the battery. <img> Evaporate the solution to recover the crystals. You can evaporate the solution by pouring it into a shallow glass dish that is exposed to the air for several days. You can also speed the process up by boiling the solution carefully in a heat-resistant (pyrex or borosilicate) pan, and then pouring off the last bit of sulfuric acid that does not evaporate. Be careful, as the solution in question is caustic and should be handled with great care. <img> Dispose of excess copper sulfate solution correctly. Copper sulfate is toxic to fish, plants, and other wildlife and should not be poured into lakes or streams, or rinsed down the storm drain. Copper sulfate is a common ingredient in many drain cleaners, and small quantities, like what this experiment will yield, can be safely diluted with water and rinsed down the sink. <img> " ]

[ "Figure out what is allowed and what is not as far as uniform modification in your school dress code. Many schools with uniforms do not allow direct modification of the uniforms, but will allow accessories and small additions. If you are unsure of what exactly you can and cannot do, check with the office beforehand. <img> Decide what kind of statement you'd like to make. Personality is the biggest factor in how you'd like to change your uniform. Pick your style and stick with it. <img> ", "Add small touches to your uniform. Tasteful pins are a good non-permanent addition to your jacket or sweater. Adding new buttons to your jackets and shirts is a small but individual touch. Adding colorful ribbon to the edges of your clothing (or the top of your socks) is also a small but effective way to alter your uniform. Iron-on patches are great, but only if they are allowed. If you are not sure about permanently affixing something to your uniform, use safety pins and pin the patches on. <img> Get creative with accessories. This is probably the easiest way to change up a boring look. Adding things like hair clips, clip in extensions, jewelry, makeup, nail polish, and socks can change the whole look of an outfit. <img> Add funky jewelry. Make some out of bright duct tape, find beads, search through your house or art class for anything that's cool. <img> Choose other clothing pieces that work well with your uniform. This is where you can go crazy, if your school allows additions. A bright pink trench coat? Why not! Bright blue leggings? Go for it! If you don't have shoes that you are assigned, choose shoes that really show off who you are. Preppy folks can wear moccasins or Mary Jane shoes, punky/emo students look great in converse high tops or plaid slip-ons. Backpacks are another great way to show off your personal style. <img> Wear knee-high socks or no socks at all. <img> Carry a super cool bag or backpack. Sew labels, logos or patches onto the bag to improve a standard school bag. <img> ", "Look for a loophole in the uniform policy and make the most of it. Let them tell you what's wrong and then fix it if you have to. If it looks good, teachers won't write you up they will actually commend you on your style. If they give you detention carefully show them your loophole and get off with a warning. <img> Reflect yourself through outside sources. Although you cannot change the school uniform policy, you can change how you interpret it. There are a variety of blazers, slacks, skirts and button down shirts out there. Find one that you feel comfortable in, but still complies with school policy. <img> If you only have to stick to certain colors, you really are in luck! If the colors are blue, white and black, but you have been wearing a white shirt, blue skirt and black shoes every day of your school life, go wild! If you have no money and your parents are tightening their purse strings, customize your clothes. On a white shirt sew on black and blue felt patches and make a black, white and blue felt tie by braiding yarn and tying it like a tie! <img> If you're a guy, there are other things to do! Cool socks , shoes, undershirts, and belts can look great on guys. Part your hair differently, or gel it too. <img> Doodle tags or pictures, song names or notes onto the uniform with fabric pen. Just check it washes out first! <img> ", "Wear something really funky in your hair, whether it be a cool rubber band you found or some really awesome colored yarn. Something you made looks the coolest.\nIf you have medium hair, tie it up with a colorful band with a headband or let it flow, be confident.\nLong hair should be tied up high up or let down with a headband for a preppy look.\nThe tomboy short hair should be with a headband or clip. Also nice if plain. <img> Wear headbands. <img> ", "Rock that uniform with a great attitude! <img> Have great posture.

[ "Buy a tasteful picture frame. If you want to give the bride and groom something that will help them remember their special day, a picture frame is the perfect gift. It will be a welcome addition to the newlywed’s home.\nPick a material for the frame that can signify the beauty and importance of the day such as silver, glass, or a finely polished wood.\nAdd a more thoughtful touch to your wedding gift and get the date of the wedding, a message of congratulations, or the couple’s names engraved onto the frame. <img> Buy a gift basket for the couple. Arranging for a gift basket to be delivered to their home when they return from their honeymoon is a thoughtful wedding gift. You may not know them well, but ask someone that does what the couple’s likes and hobbies are and choose a basket based off of that. Examples of different gift basket themes include:\nA picnic basket of wine, cheese and fruit.\nA sweets basket complete with chocolates, dried fruit and assorted candy.\nA his-and-hers spa basket containing lotions, soaps and body washes. <img> Give the gift of money. Money is a great gift to give to someone you don’t know, especially if the bride and groom are planning for a big honeymoon or putting a down payment on a house. Buy a nice congratulatory card to slip the money or check inside, along with a thoughtful message.\nBe aware of regional and cultural etiquette regarding wedding gifts of money. In some social circles, cash is the best gift; whereas in others, it is still considered taboo.\nIf you know anyone going to the wedding that knows the bride or groom, ask them if they think cash or a check would be proper. <img> Get the couple a gift card. A gift card is a good alternative to a cash gift. Try and find one for the store where the couple has their wedding registry to make the shopping easier for them. <img> ", "Buy the couple a gift through the wedding registry. The registry information is usually spread by word of mouth. Sometimes it is also sent to guests in the invitation or posted on the couple's wedding website. The items on the registry are things that the bride and groom picked themselves so whatever you choose to buy will be a good gift.\nLook the registry over carefully and, if possible, take a copy with you when shopping. Avoid buying anything that duplicates the wedding registry.\nChoose a gift that can fit many homes’ styles. If you can't use the registry to help you match the couple's style, then avoid gifts that are distinct in color or style. Stick to items that would match many color and style schemes. <img> Ask others what the couple’s interests and tastes are. You may be able to find a gift that matches their interests. For example, if they like wine, you could buy them a wine rack or decanter. Matching their tastes can make for a thoughtful gift that the couple can really enjoy. <img> Create something for the couple. If you are crafty or artistic, consider putting those skills to use in making a gift. If possible, ask someone that knows them if the newlyweds would appreciate a piece of art or a practical item you can craft. If they would, spend serious time and effort on your creation and make sure that it is not thrown together the night before. Some examples of created gifts include:\nA painting of a specific place you know the couple has been to, or is interested in.\nA clay or blown glass bowl, vase or candle holder.\nA wooden cutting board with the date of the wedding and the couple’s names burned into it. <img> " ]

[ "Go slow on your first day at the gym. If you haven’t worked out in a while, it may take your body a few sessions to get back into the swing of a gym routine. Set a goal for about 1 hour of moderate exercise for your first day back in the gym, and adjust your routine after you see how you feel.\nIf you exercise too much your first day at the gym and get super sore and tired, you could discourage yourself from going back. Try to pace yourself so you can stick to a workout routine. <img> Stretch your muscles for 10-15 minutes after you work out. While you’re still warm from working out, try to stretch the muscles that you worked the most to relieve some of the soreness and stiffness the next day. You should dedicate about 10 to 15 minutes to stretching after your workout for the best results. If you’re taking a class at the gym, the instructor may lead you in a cool down. Otherwise, you can try these basic stretches:\nStand up straight and pick up one leg behind you, pulling your foot in toward your rear. Squeeze your glutes to feel a stretch in your quad, then switch to the other leg.\nPull your right arm across your chest, using your left arm to pull your bicep into a stretch. Hold this for about 30 seconds, then switch arms.\nStand with your feet shoulder-width apart and keep your legs straight. Bend at the waist and reach your hands down to touch your toes, feeling a stretch in your hamstrings. Hold this for about 30 seconds.\nTurn your head to the right, stopping when you feel a stretch in the left side of your neck. Hold this for about 10 seconds, then switch to the other side. <img> Drink a lot of water before, during, and after your workout. When you work out, you lose a lot of water from sweating. Make sure you keep a water bottle nearby and take a drink every time that you’re thirsty. Keep using your water bottle after you work out to mitigate sore muscles and fatigue.\nStay away from dehydrating liquids, like coffee, tea, and alcohol.\nFor most physically active adults, 10 to 15 glasses of water per day is a good goal to aim for. <img> Get at least 8 hours of sleep after your workout. The night after you work out, make sure you get at least 8 solid hours of sleep to help your body recover. This is not only a good practice to help you recuperate from a workout, but it can also lead to better overall health.\nExercising can tire you out more, leading to better, easier sleep.\nIf you are a teenager, try to get 9 to 10 hours of sleep per night. <img> Eat lean protein after a workout to keep your body healthy and strong. Eating balanced meals before and after you work out can help your body work at full capacity to restore your muscles. Lean proteins and plant proteins can both help your muscles recover faster after a workout. Try to incorporate healthy foods into your diet, like:\nLow cut fats of beef or pork\nSkinless chicken or turkey\nBeans\nUnsalted nuts and seeds <img> Take a rest day to avoid straining yourself. It can be tempting to go to the gym every day for a full week, especially if you’ve just gotten back into the habit. However, you should give yourself 1 full day of rest in between strenuous exercise to avoid muscle strain. Letting your body recover can also help you build muscle and lose weight faster.\nTaking a rest day doesn’t mean you can’t do any exercise at all. Consider adding in a light jog or a cardio exercise to get your heart rate up, but save the strength training or high intensity workouts for another day. <img> ", "Avoid strenuous activity for the next 24 hours. Your muscles need time to recover, and resting them is the best way to avoid injury. If you can, try not to do anything strenuous for the next day or so to avoid hurting yourself or making your muscles more sore.\nSore muscles are normal, especially if you haven’t worked out in a while.\nIf your muscle pain lasts longer than 1 week or it gets worse with exercise, seek medical care. <img> Press an ice pack against your sore muscles. Ice can help reduce inflammation and allow your muscles to recover quicker. Hold an ice pack or a bag of ice cubes against your muscles for 20 minutes at a time, 2 to 3 times per day.\nIf you’re using a bag of ice cubes, wrap it in a kitchen towel so your muscles don’t get too cold.\nConsider keeping a few ice packs in your freezer so you have a couple ready if you need them. <img> Try a warm shower or bath to loosen and soothe painful muscles. The warmth from a nice shower or bath can bring blood flow to your muscles, helping them recover more quickly. If you have the time, try taking a 10 to 15 minute shower using warm water, and focus the stream on the areas of your body that are the most sore.\nYou can try warming and cooling your muscles throughout the day. <img> Elevate your sore muscles above the level of your heart. Elevation can take blood flow away from your sore muscles, making them hurt less. If you can, try to sit or stand in a way that your sore muscle areas are raised up above the level of your heart to relieve some pain.\nIf your sore muscles are in your lower body, you can lay down and lean your legs up against a wall or a table. <img> Wrap your sore muscles in an elastic bandage to reduce pain. Grab a roll of elastic bandages and wrap a layer around your sore muscles. Make sure it’s not tight enough to cut off any blood flow, and keep the bandage on for about 5 hours before taking it off.\nThe compression from the bandage can keep blood flow away from your muscles, leading to less soreness and pain. <img> Take an over-the-counter pain reliever to manage soreness. Aspirin, ibuprofen, and naproxen can all help reduce swelling and decrease the pain of sore muscles. Follow the directions on your bottle of pain relievers and take them periodically throughout the day to reduce your soreness and stiffness.\nUse caution with over-the-counter pain relievers, and never take more than the recommended dose. <img> Rub a pain-relieving cream onto your sore muscles for relief. For a concentrated approach, pick up a tube of pain-relieving cream and rub a dime-sized amount onto your muscles. Focus on the area of your body that feels the most sore, and follow the directions on the tube for how often you should reapply.\nLook for creams with menthol or methyl salicylate in them.\nYou can find IcyHot and Aspercreme at most drug stores. <img> Book an appointment with a massage therapist if you're really sore. For the ultimate recovery session, book an appointment with your local massage therapist and specify that you’re there for muscle soreness. The massage can help to increase blood flow to your muscles, leading to a faster recovery.\nTo find a licensed massage therapist near you, search “massage therapist near me.” <img> " ]

[ "Use a power sander and a medium-grade disc to sand the treads. Attach a medium-grade sanding disc to a power sander, plug it in, and turn it on. Go over the entire surface of each tread to start smoothing out the roughness of the wood.\nIt's necessary to sand the surface of your treads before doing anything else. This should remove the unsightly orange tint of the pine, buff out scratches, and also allow the pine to better accept the stain.\nIf you don't already have a power sander, purchase or rent one from your local home improvement store. <img> Turn off the sander and switch to a fine-grade disc. Once you've gone over all of the treads, turn the sander off and unplug it. Remove the medium-grade sanding disc and attach a fine-grade sanding disc to the sander. <img> Go over the treads again with the sander. Plug the power sander back in and turn it back on. Sand all of the treads again so that they achieve an even smoother texture. <img> Hand sand the corners and edges with sandpaper. You likely won't be able to reach the entire surface of the tread with a power sander. Get a few pieces of fine-grain sandpaper from a home improvement store. Roll a pencil up into a piece of the sandpaper and hand sand all of the corners, edges, and crevices that the power sander missed. <img> Fill all holes and cracks in the treads with wood filler. Get some wood filler from a home improvement store and squirt it into any little holes or cracks you notice in your treads. These can occur naturally in the grain, or as a result of staples and/or tacks that have held carpet to the stairs in the past. <img> Wait 24 hours for the wood filler to dry. Stay off of the stairs for at least 1 day after filling the holes and cracks so that the filler can dry all the way. Once you think the filler may be dry, touch a couple of the holes or cracks and see if the filler feels wet or sticky at all. If not, the filler has dried completely. <img> Sand the treads again. Sand the treads again with all of the holes filled in. Go over the treads with the power sander until they're smooth to the touch and then hand sand the tight spots again. This should ensure that the filler is flush with the tread surface. <img> ", "Vacuum up excess sanding dust. After you're done sanding, go over the treads with a hand-held vacuum or use an attachment on your upright vacuum. Go over the entire surface area of the treads to ensure that no sanding dust is left behind. <img> Wipe down the treads with a tack cloth. Go to a paint store or a home center and buy a tack cloth. This is a special cloth that is sticky enough to pick up sanding dust, but doesn't leave moisture behind. Go over the surface of each tread with the cloth to remove all dirt, dust, and sanding dust.\nYou can also use a cheese cloth to wipe away the dust.\nIf you'd rather make your own tack cloth, soak a piece of cotton fabric in water, wring it out, and then wet it lightly with turpentine. Drip some varnish onto the cloth and then wring it out to distribute the varnish evenly throughout the cloth. <img> Fill in and buff out left behind holes and scratches. Wiping the treads with a tack cloth should give the treads a shiny quality, which will highlight any scratches or holes that you may have missed while sanding. If you find that you did miss some scratches, buff them out with sandpaper. If you notice any holes that you didn't see before, fill them with wood filler.\nIf you end up having to sand and fill in left behind scratches and holes, wait 24 hours before you vacuum each tread and wipe them down with a tack cloth as you did before. <img> ", "Apply a coat of wood conditioner and wipe it away after 15 minutes. It can be challenging to stain pine uniformly, but wood conditioner allows for a more even application. Read over the product's instructions, and then wipe the conditioner onto each tread with a foam brush. Then, wait about 15 minutes for the conditioner to soak into the wood. When the time has passed, wipe away any excess with a rag.\nYou can get wood conditioner from a home improvement store.\nFor best results, apply the conditioner in horizontal strokes. <img> Brush a coat of wood stain onto each tread. Get a wood stain from a home improvement store and brush it onto the stair treads with a bristle brush. Follow the directions on the can of wood stain, and make sure that you cover the entire surface of each stair by moving in long strokes and going with the grain as you apply.\nIf you need to get up and down the stairs, only stain every other tread for now. Once they're completely dry, stain the remaining treads. <img> Wait a few minutes and then wipe off the stain. It's best to wipe it off with a rag right away if you want a light stain and to wait about 10 minutes if you want a dark stain. If you wait 10 minutes before you wipe off the excess and it's still not dark enough, apply a second stain and wait another 10 minutes or so before you wipe it off. <img> Let the treads dry for 24 hours. After you're done staining, the treads need a full day to dry. Be sure to stay off of the stairs during this time so that the stain isn't smudged or accidentally wiped away. <img> Seal the stain with a coat of polyurethane for protection. Polyurethane is what seals your tread and keeps it from getting scratched or damaged. Use a large fine paintbrush to apply an oil-based or water-based polyurethane all over each tread. Apply the polyurethane in long, horizontal strokes.\nYou can find polyurethane at a home improvement store.\nFor best results, follow the directions on the polyurethane and stir it right before you dip the brush into the can each time. <img> Wait 24 hours and then apply a second coat of polyurethane. Give the treads at least a day to dry. Then, apply another coat of polyurethane just as you did before.\nAdd a third coat of polyurethane for a more protected seal.\nReturn to using the stairs as usual 24 hours after the final coat. <img> " ]

[ "Fillet and de-bone whole fish before eating it. If the fish is being served whole, you'll want to cut the head off first, just behind the gills. Next, hold the body with your fork, and use your knife to the belly open, starting at the head and ending at the tail. Pull open the body, and remove the backbone. You can do this by placing the tip of your knife under the spine, then lifting it out with your fork.\nIf you can't remove the bones, simply eat around them. Don't flip the fish over to eat the flesh from the other side of the bones. This is bad etiquette. Instead, use your fork to lift the bone up and pull the flesh away. <img> Eat fish fillets and steaks with a fork and knife. Most fish fillets will be de-boned, but you will still want to be careful. If you bite into a bone, simply pull it out of your mouth with your fingers, and set it down onto the side of your plate.\nSome people like to eat the skin of their fish. Other people like to peel it away first using a fork and knife. <img> Don't eat the shell, vein, tail, or head on shrimp or prawns. If you ordered pasta, likely the shrimp and prawns will already come peeled and deveined. If you ordered them as a dish, they may come whole. In this case, you'll need to the pull off the head and tail, then the shell. Be sure to pull out the black thread along the back and discard it before eating the shrimp or prawn.\nTo eat a peeled and headless prawn or shrimp: grip it by the tail, bite the body off, and discard the tail.\nWhen peeling shrimp, it is easiest to start from the underside of the body, where the legs are. <img> Eat crab and lobster directly from the shell with a fork. Crack the claws and legs with special cracker, then pull meat out with fork or pick. Some restaurants will also offer to serve the meat already extracted from the shell for you. <img> Use a fork or shell to pull the flesh away from clams and mussels. When eating a bowl of clams or mussels, see if you can find an intact shell, then use it to grip and pull the fleshy bits from the shells. You can also use a fork instead, if you'd like. <img> ", "For something classic, pair fish and seafood with pasta or spaghetti. Seafood, such as shrimp or scallops, go especially well with spaghetti. Tuna goes well with alfredo sauce and pasta. <img> For something easy, pair fish, especially fried fish, with potatoes. You can also pair fish fried in breadcrumbs with fries/chips for a typical \"fish and chips\" pairing. <img> For something refreshing or simple, pair fish and seafood with salads or steamed vegetables. Caesar salad goes well with pasta and shrimp or scallops, and bean salad is great when paired with tilapia. Steamed vegetables are also an excellent choice. You don't have to worry about adding any fancy sauces or oils. A little bit of seasoning, such as salt and pepper, will be plenty. <img> Try fish with brown rice or quinoa for extra fiber. Quinoa is full of fiber, iron, magnesium, phosphorous, potassium, and vitamin B. It goes well with just about any type of fish. Brown rice is an excellent source of fiber, and goes well with salmon, especially miso-glazed salmon. <img> Pair lean, flaky fish with zesty, refreshing white wines. Delicate fish, such as sea bass, flounder, sole, and tilapia, need a delicate white wine for balance. Consider white wines from the South of France, Greece, or Portugal. Lean, flaky will also go well with wines like Champagne, Chardonnay, Pinot Grigio, and Sauvignon Blanc. <img> Pair medium-textured flakey fish with medium-bodied white wines. Consider wines that are rich in aromas, or aged in oak. Fish like trout, catfish, cod, and halibut go well with wines like Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, and Pinot Gris. <img> Pair firm, meaty fish with rich, flavorful white wines, and some red and rosé wines. Fish like salmon, mackerel, mahi mahi, shark, swordfish, or tuna have a firm texture, almost like steak. They go best with rich wines, such as: Chardonnay, Dry Rosé, Sauvignon Vert, and vintage Champagne. They also go well with Pinot, such as White Pinot Noir and Pinot d’Alsace. <img> Pair salty, strongly flavored fish with mostly red wines. Fish like anchovies, sardine, herring, and mackerel need a strong wine, but will also go well with Champagne. Consider any of the following wines: Champagne, Dry Rosé, Pinot Noir, and any Greek red wines. <img> ", "Enjoy Eat Sushi for lunch or dinner. You can eat it at sushi bars, or you can prepare it yourself. If you choose to prepare it yourself, make sure that you buy sushi-grade raw fish, as the standard fish sold at the super market may not be fresh or flavorful enough. <img> Eat sushi with a pair of chopsticks. You can eat nigiri sushi with your fingers, but sashimi should only be eaten with chopsticks. Nigiri sushi looks like little pieces of fish served in little bricks made of rice. Sashimi is thin slices of raw fish.\nTry to eat nigiri sushi in one bite. This may be more challenging in Western countries, where nigiri is usually made larger. <img> Always dip nigiri sushi fish-side-down into the soy sauce. Never dip it rice-first into the soy sauce. The rice will soak up too much sauce, and it may fall apart. The last thing you'd want is a bunch of rice grains in your soy sauce. <img> Consider serving a bowl of Miso soup before the sushi. Miso soup complements the delicate flavor of sushi well. It is usually drunk straight from the bowl. <img> Be mindful of the pickled ginger and wasabi. Use pickled ginger as a palate cleanser between bites of sushi; don't eat it all in one bite. Also, don't mix wasabi into the soy sauce. The chef will already have placed what he feels to be the right amount into the sushi before serving it. If you want that extra spice, slip a little bit of wasabi under the sushi with the tip of your chopstick. <img> Save the sake for before or after the meal. If you must enjoy your sake with your meal, consider pairing it with sashimi instead of nigiri. Both sake and nigiri are rice-based. Many people feel that this will create a poor balance. <img> Enjoy sushi with a cup of green tea. It works well with both nigiri and sashimi type sushi. <img> " ]

[ "Make sure you can legally import your chosen item. Most items will be allowed, but there are certain guidelines that must be followed for some types of items. The United States imposes stricter guidelines on agricultural products, for example. Additionally, Chinese laws may prohibit the export of certain items, like animal by-products or fake designer clothes and accessories. Check with the laws and regulations of both countries before making an order. <img> Make a list of Chinese exporters, or suppliers, who can provide you with your product. Fortunately, Chinese exporters actively seek out import partners in the US through online forums and trade websites. You can find suppliers using online outsourcing directories or professional sourcing companies. Some good places to start include Alibaba.com, China.cn, and Analema International.\nExport agents in China are very commonly hired by Chinese exporters. Some of these export agents are also 3rd-party suppliers, while others just provide export services.\nYou can also visit trade fairs (two trades shows in China are worth mentioning, Canton Fair and East China Fair), search suppliers on Google Map, check customs data, go to local wholesale market, filter sellers on retail sites and use many other ways to find potential suppliers.\nIf you don't have much experience dealing directly with suppliers in China, another option is to seek the help of a commission-based China sourcing agent or sourcing service provider. However, the fee can range from 3 to 15% of the purchase price. Be aware that there might also be hidden commissions between sourcing agents and Chinese manufacturers. The biggest benefit of working with a good agent is its network and relationship with the qualified and trustworthy manufacturers, whom you might find hard to access on your own. If you decide to go this route, after working with sourcing agents a few times and familiarizing yourself with the process, you can eventually manage your own deals without their help. <img> Contact each supplier on your list. Once you have a list of exporters, you can begin asking questions in order to narrow it down to the supplier who is right for you. Some things you will want to ask each exporter to provide you with include:\nClient references. A reputable supplier should be able to provide you with client testimonials and references. Once they do, be sure to check them.\nBusiness licensing information. You want to be sure that any company you do business with is properly licensed and in compliance with all applicable trade laws in order to avoid future legal problems which may affect your business.\nManufacturing and staffing information. Be sure you understand the exporter’s relationship to the manufacturer. Do they manufacture the product themselves? If not, do they get paid by the manufacturer as well?\nThe name and location of the factory producing the product. If an exporter refuses to provide you with the name and address of the factory where the product is manufactured, they may not be a reputable supplier. <img> Investigate the product. Request information regarding the experience of each factory in producing your particular product. You should also ask for samples of the product. Unless you will be manufacturing your own new product, the supplier should be able to provide you with samples of the product so that you can get a better idea of the quality and know ahead of time exactly what you are paying for.\nCost is not the only the consideration when choosing a supplier; quality may be just as important, and the manufacturer’s experience can be a good indication of the quality of work. <img> ", "Make a trip to meet with your supplier. If at all possible, it's best to schedule a visit to your supplier in China. This will help you establish a relationship with the supplier and get a sense of how well their business is operated. This provides a better opportunity for negotiation than working on a deal over the phone. \nThe website should offer the supplier's physical addresses and contact details. If this information is absent, ask for their contact details and if they don’t mind you coming in and checking on their offices. This shouldn’t be a problem at all if they are not hiding something from you.\nVisiting trade shows is a great way to see suppliers face-to-face without traveling to China. <img> Obtain a business visa. In order to enter China, you will need to apply for and receive a Chinese M visa, which is the visa specific to business activities. You can apply for this visa at the nearest Chinese consulate. In order to get the visa, you will have to submit the required documentation and items, which includes:\nA valid passport from your current country of residence.\nA black and white photocopy of the picture page of your passport.\nBlack and white photocopies of previous Chinese visas you have obtained (if any).\nA recent, passport-style photo of yourself.\nA completed visa application form (available at the Chinese Embassy's website).\nAn invitation letter from the supplier you are meeting.\nA fee of approximately $140, plus any additional service or administrative fees.\nIt may take three weeks for your visa to be processed and shipped once you have applied for it. However, you may be able to pay for expedited service. Ask the consulate for details. <img> Negotiate a deal with the supplier. Remember that business interactions with Chinese exporters are governed by Chinese culture and customs, and different negotiation skills and tactics may be required. Some things to keep in mind when negotiating with Chinese suppliers include:\nThe focus is on relationships. Chinese do not do business with companies, they do business with people, and each business deal creates a new relationship with the other party. Chinese exporters are therefore not likely to jump into a deal until they have had the opportunity to get to know you a little.\nReliance is on moral influence, not legal practice. Chinese executives tend to rely more on a party’s moral obligation, rather than its legal one. This does not mean you should ignore the wise business practice of having a signed contract, but you should let your desire to get a signature on a contract take a back seat to building a trusting relationship where each party will feel morally obligated to perform, even if they did not have a signed contract.\nHierarchy is important. Shaking the hand of a low ranking executive first or calling a high-ranking executive by his first name can jeopardize interpersonal relationships and affect a Chinese executive’s willingness to negotiate. Pay close attention to how executives address each other and follow their lead. <img> Begin placing your orders. Each company will have a minimum order amount and a basic shipping agreement. Most exporters expect orders of at least 10,000 units, depending on the item in question. The most common types of shipping arrangement for Chinese exports to the U.S. include:\nCarrier air mail. This service is best for samples and smaller orders, but can be costly. Check with companies like DHL International, UPS, and EMS to set up an import shipping account.\nSea freight. For larger orders and bulky items, or to save money, you can use sea freight to import your items. This type of order is shipped as either a full container load (FCL), which is a full shipping container for your items, or a less than container load (LCL), which allows your shipment to share space in the same container with other shipments. FCL shipments are cheaper per cubic meter but require a large order to make the cost worth it. <img> Pay for your products. To place your order, you will have to pay a deposit on the value of your order. Usually an initial deposit of between 30-50% will be requested by a Chinese manufacturer to get your product/order into production. The remainder is paid upon delivery of the goods. Never pay the entire amount of the purchase price upfront. If there is a problem with the order, you may not be able to get your money back.\nRemember that the wholesale cost of your product is not simply the recorded cost of the item on the order, but the total cost of having it shipped to you, including taxes, tariffs, shipping, and insurance fees.\nA letter of credit is commonly used in trade with China. Go to your bank to get detail formality and cost.\nPayment for Chinese exports is most often made by credit card, but many Chinese suppliers also accept other forms of payment, such as cash, check, or even PayPal.\nYou need to have a good estimate of the landing cost before you make your order. Landing cost = cost of the goods + transport costs by forwarder + import duties (if any) + local transport costs + cost of service providers (inspections, agents, etc.).\nThere may be many hidden costs and you can consult an import management company, but the best way to avoid bad surprises is by making a first order of a small quantity, and collect all costs and fine tune your landing cost estimate.\nUse escrow services for payment whenever possible. Escrow companies allow a buyer to deposit funds with an independent third party, to be delivered to the seller once he or she has fulfilled his or her end of the supply and shipping agreement. <img> Avoid payment fraud. Some importers may experience this type of fraud when placing their orders. It typically involves their payment for orders being sent to the wrong bank account, which can leave both the supplier and the importer out of a large amount of money. Reduce your risk of this type of fraud by following two simple steps:\nDon't send your payment to a bank account that isn't registered under the name of the company you are ordering from.\nDon't send your payment to a bank account registered in a different city from your supplier, even if the name on the account is similar.\nOtherwise, you will simply lose your money and have virtually no legal recourse to get it back. <img> ", "Hire a customs broker. Locating and hiring a licensed customs broker can make your importation process much easier. This professional facilitates communication between you and the government, fills out and files necessary paperwork, and can help you navigate import regulations. They can also help estimate import costs and how long the import process will take. Just make sure that you can cover their fee with the sale of your imported products. \nNeglecting compliance can be very costly. This may force you to pay expensive and unexpected customs duties, such as the anti-dumping duty, as well as risk delaying your customs clearance. This will cost you expensive storage fees at a railway station or container yard. Avoid these expenses by hiring a qualified customs broker.\nFind a certified broker by searching on the website for the National Customs Brokers and Forwarders Association of America. <img> Acquire necessary permits and licenses. Work with your customs broker to identify which licenses and permits you will need, if any. Apply for them through the appropriate US government channels and wait for your application to be accepted before placing an import order. \nYou will need a specialized license to import items that fall under certain categories, such as food products, plants, animal products, prescription medication, trademarked items (brand name or designer goods), and copyrighted items (CDs, DVDs, etc.).\nThe specific licenses needed for each good may come from different government agencies. You can find which licenses you need by visiting the US Customs and Border Patrol's website and searching for \"licenses and permits.\" <img> File the Import Security filing (ISF). The ISF is a document specific to items shipped by sea freight that provides advance shipment information to US Customs. This document should be filed 24 hours before shipment sets sail. If this is not done by either you or your broker, you may have to pay a $5,000 fine. The data points required on the ISF are:\nIdentities of the buyer and seller.\nImporter of Record number.\nConsignee numbers.\nCountry of Origin.\nShip to party.\nHarmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States number (if your Chinese supplier has some export experience, he should have the harmonized schedule code, or HS code, for your product).\nManufacturer or supplier information.\nContainer stuffing location.\nConsolidator. <img> Get your product through US Customs and Border Protection (“CBP”). For help with this, contact a service port of entry near you. Ask to speak with a CBP import specialist assigned to the product you are importing. Import specialists can provide you with product specific requirements, advisory duty rates, answer your questions about filing an entry, and can assist you with preparing and filing the required paperwork. You can locate a port of entry and its contact information by visiting the CBP’s website.\nYou should be aware of any entry requirements specific to the particular product you are importing, including those of federal agencies besides CBP.\nFor more information about getting your product through U.S. Customs, read Basic Importing and Exporting at CBP's website: http://www.cbp.gov/trade/basic-import-export. <img> Submit initial import documents. Once the goods are received by the port of entry, you (or your customs broker) have five days to submit the first round of required import documents. These must be accepted by customs before further documentation can be filed. Required documents include:\nBill of lading.\nPacking lists.\nCommercial invoice.\nCertificate of origin.\nCustoms bond.\nInward cargo manifest or immediate delivery form. <img> File additional documents. After the first documents are accepted by the port of entry, you or your broker now have ten days to file two additional required documents. These are the entry summary (US Customs Form 7501) and any relevant invoices that can be used to value the shipment. <img> ", "Pay your import duties. Your import duties will be calculated using the value of your shipment as estimated by customs officers and the shipment's grouping on the harmonized tariff schedule. The value of the shipments includes the price paid, commissions incurred from the purchase, royalty fees, license fees, packing costs, and the value of assists (specialized machinery or molds used in the manufacturing process). Your duties are then determined by using the tax rate specific to items of your shipment type on the US Government's Harmonized Tariff Schedule.\nTariffs may vary by origin as well. For example, liquor (alcoholic beverages containing over 20 percent but no more than 50 alcohol by volume) is taxed at a standard rate of 8.4 cents per kilogram and an additional 1.9% of total value. However, this fee is waived when the items are coming from certain locations (including Canada and Singapore).\nIf any of your filed documents are inaccurate, you will need to file corrected documents before you can pay your duties.\nYour duties are due within ten days of the receipt of your initial import documents.\nYour customs broker should be able to help you estimate the cost of your duties before you import the goods. <img> Arrange for pick-up and transport. Contact a commercial cargo company to arrange to have your shipment picked up at the port of entry and shipped to your warehouse or local resellers. Cargo companies can be located by consulting your local yellow pages or favorite online phone book. <img> Check your shipment for accuracy and damage. Once the items have made it to you, look at the packaging and items themselves for any damage sustained over the course of the trip.

[ "Find a torch (flashlight) that emits a white light. The brighter, the better. If it's too weak, it may not do the trick. Most flashlights you find in your bottom kitchen drawer will do the job just fine.\nIf you find a flashlight/torch that's too dim, try replacing the batteries -- they may just be old. <img> Decide what color you want your light saber to be and get cellophane of that color. Cut out a piece to cover the front of the torch, adhering with transparent tape.\nCover just the lens of the flashlight. You don't want the cellophane to show through to the base. <img> Get a few pieces of clean, white paper. Steal some from your dad's printer tray if need be -- doubt he'll miss three pieces of paper in the long run.\nA4 or A3 paper both work. As long as it's clean and white, the force will be with you. <img> Wrap one piece of paper around the top or the torch or flashlight. On the underside of the paper, double over tape (or use the double-sided kind) all along the edges of the flashlight's base -- you don't want the tape to be visible.\nIf there is overlap, you may want to cut the paper to size. You want the light to emit evenly on all sides. <img> Wrap another piece of paper into a roll. Attach it to the end of the first piece of paper, overlapping minimally. Use the same taping method, adhering the tape on the inside of the second piece. Continue this process until you think your light saber is long enough.\nIf it gets too long, it may start drooping. Two or three pieces may be your limit. <img> Check that it's sitting straight and is firmly taped together. Then, turn on the torch or flashlight, turn off the lights, and have fun!\nThis paper version won't stand up to actual lightsaber duels. It's more for show and bragging rights than anything.\nIf you've time on your hands, make a light saber hilt out of a paper towel tube and insert your flashlight/torch into it. <img> ", "Spray paint the flashlight silver. You obviously won’t be using this flashlight for anything other than the light saber, so make sure its not an expensive flashlight that you may need later.\nLay out newspaper outside (preferably on the driveway or a table) before spraying the flashlight and cover the top with duct or masking tape. You don’t want to spray the top of the flashlight with paint otherwise you won’t be able to “see the light force” when it’s turned on.\nSpray the entire body a silver color. You may want to take a few passes with the spray paint. In fact, you don’t have to spray your saber silver either. Ask your young Jedi--he/she may desire a different color such as sparkly pink or purple. Making a homemade light saber allows you to fully customize the toy to your child’s liking. <img> Cover the flashlight head with a piece of colored acetone paper. If you could only pick up a regular flashlight, have no fear. Your light saber can have the color of your choosing using special colored paper.\nPlace the flashlight, light side downward on your paper. Trace the outside of the flashlight opening so that the paper circle is slightly larger than the flashlight opening.\nCut out the paper and place over top of the flashlight. You can secure it using glue, silver duct tape or even (if large enough) a rubber band. <img> Create the sword. Make sure the sword tubing is the desired size. Also, before you purchase it, compare the width to the size of your flashlight to ensure it can easily slip over the flashlight mouth.\nUse an exacto knife to size and cut the tube to fit. However, depending upon the girth of tubing you may need to use a hacksaw to do the job. If your Jedi is especially little, you may not want him/her to play with an extremely long saber so determine what he/she can handle and cut accordingly.\nUse excess tubing to “top” your saber. You will want the tube to have a top to it, so use residual plastic to create a topper. Use the top of your saber as the guide, however make the circle approximately ½ inch larger so you can completely cover the top of your tube. Use clear glue such as liquid nails or a hot glue gun to adhere the top to the sword. <img> Join the sword to the handle. Duct tape and a little elbow grease can help this light saber show you that the force will be with you.\nSlide the tubing over the top of the flashlight until the tubing covers approximately 1 inch (2.5 cm) of the flashlight top. You will want the tubing to cover enough flashlight real estate so that it stays in place and doesn’t fall off during battle.\nGlue the tube to the flashlight using liquid nails or Super Glue. Your first step to adhering the tube to the flashlight is to glue it together. Use small dabs of glue around the top of the flashlight and then slide the tube over it. Hold in place for several minutes to ensure it sticks.\nSecure the tube and flashlight using silver duct tape. You can also use other colors, however if you spray painted the flashlight silver, the silver duct tape will match best. Wind the tape around the tube and flashlight several times taping the tube both above and below the flashlight mouth area for full coverage. <img> Finished. <img> " ]

[ "If you're a Mac user, it'll be more difficult to move seamlessly between your phone and computer. Switching to Android means no more sharing a clipboard, handing off work between devices, or sending SMS and MMS texts from your Mac.\nIf you use Apple Calendar on your Mac, you won't receive event notifications on your Android. Switching to Google Calendar on both devices would ensure you are still notified of events in both locations.\nSince there's no version of Safari for Android, you also won't be able to access your Safari bookmarks and browsing history from your Android. If this is important to your workflow, you can always install Google Chrome on your Mac and use it with your Android the same way you did Safari.\nIf you're a Windows user, switching to a Samsung Galaxy phone will be an improvement—you can use the Link to Windows feature to transfer content between devices, and even use Android apps from your PC. <img> ", "When iPhone users exchange messages with other iPhone users in the Messages app, they can use features that Android users can't. iMessage is the technology behind the Messages app on your iPhone that lets you send and receive messages over Wi-Fi and cellular data instead of SMS and MMS. Some iMessage features you may miss are:\n\nSending messages with effects, like fireworks, balloons, and bubbles.\nInstalling iMessage apps from within the Messages apps, including sticker packs and games you can play with other iPhone users.\nSending and receiving secret messages in invisible ink.\nSending and receiving money with Apple Pay while texting.\nCreating and sharing Memoji. <img> ", "If you're used to streaming music and movies to your Apple TV, Mac, or AirPlay speakers, you'll run into trouble on your new Android. Androids don't come with AirPlay support, so if the device you want to stream or mirror your screen to only supports AirPlay, you won't be able to use it unless you install commercial (paid) software.\nThis might not be a huge problem, as Android's Chromecast feature is widely compatible with most TVs and smart speakers. <img> ", "Using FaceTime on an iPhone to place video calls is as easy as making voice-only calls. If you have an Android, you can only FaceTime with iPhone users if they initiate the call and send you an invitation link—a feature that's available as long as they're using iOS 15 or later. While this is an improvement from the days of no FaceTime options for Android users, the steps may be a little challenging to explain to less-technical friends and family members.\nThis doesn't mean you can't video chat on an Android! Google Meet is a great FaceTime alternative that your friends with iPhones can install. Once you both have the app, you can use it to video chat at any time.\nIf you're a Memoji fan, you can no longer use animated Memoji in FaceTime calls once you switch to Android. <img> ", "iPhone Wi-Fi password sharing makes it possible to share a Wi-Fi password with another iPhone user in a single tap. If you try to join a wireless network that a friend or family member is currently connected to, they won't be prompted to send you the password. <img> ", "Doesn't it seem like there's always an update ready for your iPhone? As frustrating as they might be, you might miss those updates if you switch to Android. Because all iPhone updates are pushed to devices directly from Apple, updates are generally available to all users at once. When Google pushes out an Android update, the update schedule varies by manufacturer.\niPhones generally receive updates for up to 6 years from purchase, while Androids are generally cut off from future updates after just 2 or 3 years.\nSamsung is an exception, as they now promise at least 4 years of security updates for their most popular and flagship models. <img> ", "There are hundreds of Android models to choose from at any given time, all with different sizes, specs, and manufactures—unlike Apple phones. Since there are so many different Android models, it can be difficult to walk into an electronics store and find a selection of protective cases that fits one particular model.\nAndroid's USB-C charging cables are standardized and easy to find just about anywhere. They are also more inexpensive than iPhone charging cables, and can even be used to power other types of devices.\nBecause Samsung models are the most popular Androids, you'll be more likely to find Samsung cases in stores than other models. <img> ", "AirDrop makes it easy to share files with anyone nearby who also has an iPhone, iPad, or Mac. But like other Apple technologies, AirDrop is not compatible with Androids. And while modern Androids come equipped with Nearby Share, that technology only works with other Androids.\nThere are still lots of ways you can share files from an Android to an iPhone, iPad, or Mac, including through Google Drive or iCloud. <img> ", "Offloading an iPhone app temporarily deletes the app without erasing the app's data. There is no identical feature for Androids—you can either delete the app's data without deleting the app, or delete the app and its data.\nFortunately, many Androids can take MicroSD memory cards, which means you can always add more space when you need to. If you're always having to delete files and apps on your iPhone to make room for more, switching to Android will be an improvement.\nGoogle also offers a cloud storage service similar to iCloud that provides plenty of room for backups, photos, and other files. <img> ", "The iPhone's interface is simple and straightforward. Once you learn how to use your iPhone, you can use any iPhone. If you ever switch to a different Android model, you may have to learn how to use all new apps and an entirely new interface. While \"ease of use\" is subjective, Androids are generally better options for people who want to be able to customize their phones and have access to a greater variety of apps. <img> " ]

[ "Scrape out the stinger if it’s stuck with a credit card or dull knife. Check to see if there’s a black dot at the site of the sting. If you see one, that’s the stinger. Press a credit card or dull knife against the edge of the stinger and gently scrape it across the sting to pull it out. If you cannot get the stinger out this way, you can try pulling it out with a pair of tweezers.\nYellow jackets don’t usually leave a stinger, but it’s a good idea to check for one. If the stinger is stuck in your skin, it can release more venom and make the sting hurt more.\nAsk someone to help you if you're nervous or if you can't reach or find the stinger. <img> Wash the affected area with soap and water. Once you have removed the stinger, hold the stung area under cool, running water and apply a small amount of soap to the area. Gently rub the soap around and then rinse it off completely. Pat the area dry with a clean, dry towel.\nDon’t scrub at the sting as this will likely irritate it. Wash it gently with your fingertips only. <img> Apply ice to the sting to reduce pain and swelling. Wrap an ice pack in a thin towel and apply it to the sting. Hold the ice pack in place for about 10 to 20 minutes. Then, remove it and let your skin return to its normal temperature before applying the ice pack again. This will take about 1 to 2 hours.\nUse an ice pack as needed to help reduce pain, itching, and swelling in the first 24 to 48 hours after getting stung.Tip: If you don’t have an ice pack, wrap a bag of frozen vegetables in a paper towel or thin cloth and use it as an ice pack. <img> Elevate the arm or leg if that’s where the sting is located. Prop up your arm or leg on a couple of pillows while you are seated or lying down. Or, if you’re standing and the sting is on your arm, raise your arm into the air and keep it there for as long as you’re able. This will help to reduce the swelling. <img> ", "Apply a paste made from unseasoned meat tenderizer and water. Mix 2 parts meat tenderizer with 1 part water to create a thick paste. Then, apply the paste to the sting. Cover the sting and the area around it completely. Leave the paste on for about 15 to 20 minutes, then wipe it away with a cool, damp washcloth or rinse it off with cool water.\nRepeat this as needed daily to help manage the pain and itching. <img> Spread a baking soda paste over the sting. Mix 2 parts baking soda and 1 part water to create a thick paste. Then, spread the paste over the yellow jacket sting. Leave it on for about 15 to 20 minutes and then wipe it away with a cool, wet washcloth.\nRepeat this a few times daily to help reduce the itching and pain. <img> Press a wet, cool teabag against the sting. Brew a cup of black tea and then remove the teabag. Let the teabag cool for about 5 to 10 minutes until it is room temperature. Then, press the teabag against the sting. Keep the teabag in place for about 5 to 10 minutes.Tip: You may also chill the teabag in a refrigerator and then apply it. Place the teabag in a plastic bag and chill it for about 30 minutes. Then, apply the teabag to your sting. <img> Use an over-the-counter product meant for stings. Antihistamine cream, corticosteroid cream, or calamine lotion work well for reducing the itchiness caused by a yellow jacket sting. Apply the product to the sting as indicated by the manufacturer.\nFor example, if you use calamine lotion, apply the lotion to cotton balls and dab it onto the sting or stings. <img> Take an over-the-counter pain reliever. Taking acetaminophen or ibuprofen can help to reduce the pain caused by a yellow jacket sting, which may be severe depending on the location and number of stings. Take the dose recommended by the manufacturer as needed for pain.\nIf you’re still having a lot of pain after taking a pain reliever, call your doctor. They may be able to give you something stronger or administer a local anesthetic, such as lidocaine. <img> Take an over-the-counter antihistamine to reduce swelling. It’s best to ask a doctor before taking an antihistamine for swelling from a yellow jacket sting, especially if the swelling is dramatic. However, if they say it’s okay, then take an over-the-counter antihistamine in the recommended dose.\nAsk what type of antihistamine your doctor recommends. Some common types include diphenhydramine or chlorpheniramine, but they might recommend something else. <img> ", "Seek immediate medical attention for multiple stings. If the person was stung by multiple yellow jackets, they may require immediate medical help. Twenty stings per 1 kg (2.2 lb) of body weight is usually lethal. However, someone may experience severe symptoms from far fewer stings. If a child has been stung more than 5 times for every 10 lb (4.5 kg) of body weight or a teen or adult was sting more than 50 times, call emergency services.\nFor example, if the child weighs 30 lb (14 kg) and they were stung more than 15 times, call for emergency services immediately. <img> Consider the location of the sting and call for help if it’s near an airway. If the person has been stung on their throat, mouth, or tongue, call for emergency services. Swelling in this area can lead to difficulty breathing. Call emergency services in case the person’s airway starts closing due to swelling.Tip: You may also want to call a doctor if the sting was on or near the person’s face, especially if it’s around the eyes. This may lead to swelling that could obstruct the person’s vision. <img> Call your doctor if the sting gets worse over the next 2 to 3 days. In most cases, a yellow jacket sting will cause redness, swelling, pain and itching that may last for 2 to 3 days. However, the sting should appear and feel better over time. If the sting is becoming more swollen, painful, red, or if you have other concerns about it, call your doctor. Some symptoms to watch for include:\nA sting that gets redder over the next 2 days\nA sting that looks infected, such as by getting warm, swollen, red, and draining pus\nA swollen area greater than 4 in (10 cm) or over a joint, such as the wrist or knee <img> Watch for symptoms of an allergic reaction. If someone is allergic to yellow jackets or if a person receives multiple stings, they may have an allergic reaction. If this happens, it’s important to seek immediate medical attention. Call emergency services or go to the emergency department of the nearest hospital. Some serious symptoms to watch for include:\nHives, itching, and swelling in other areas of the body\nAbdominal cramping, nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea\nDifficulty breathing or a tight feeling in the chest\nA hoarse sounding voice, difficulty swallowing, or swelling of the tongue or throat <img> Watch for signs of an anaphylactic reaction. An anaphylactic reaction is a severe allergic reaction to a yellow jacket sting. This usually happens within 10 minutes of the person getting stung. Call emergency services immediately if you or someone else is having an anaphylactic reaction. Symptoms of an anaphylactic reaction may include:\nDizziness\nSharp drop in blood pressure\nLoss of consciousness\nCardiac arrest <img> Ask your doctor to prescribe an epipen if you had an allergic reaction. If you had an anaphylactic reaction or a skin reaction other than scratching like hives and swelling, you should ask your doctor for an epipen prescription. That way, if there is a future emergency where you’re going into anaphylactic shock, you can administer the epinephrine to yourself.\nYou should always carry the pen with you in case of an emergency. <img> " ]

[ "Find a plastic lid and trace it onto a blank piece of paper. A plastic bottle cap or a coffee container lid are a few good options for a top. Wash the lid off with soap and water if you need to, then set it on a piece of white printer paper. Use a pencil to trace the lid’s shape on the paper.\nThe paper is used as decoration on the top. If you don’t wish to decorate the top this way, you can skip using the paper and instead move directly to skewering the lid.\nTry making tops out of other objects. Use CDs or metal cans for something unique. If you use a metal can, you can leave the can whole or cut it to a smaller size with tin snips. <img> Cut the circle out of the paper with a pair of scissors. Get a sharp pair of scissors and carefully cut along the outline you traced. Keep the edges of the circle as smooth and even as possible. The paper will fit inside the plastic lid.\nKeep in mind that larger, heavier tops tend to spin longer. Experiment with bigger lids and heavier paper for more spinning.\nIf you plan on making multiple tops, sketch more circles on the scrap paper. Cut the paper carefully to avoid damaging any of the outlines. <img> Fold the paper in half, open it, then fold it in half again. Create creases in the middle of the paper with 2 separate folds. Carefully fold the paper horizontally, making sure the edges line up. After opening the paper, fold it in half vertically. The creases from the folds will meet in the middle of the paper.\nWork slowly so the creases meet in the center of the paper. <img> Fit the paper in the lid and poke a hole through both of them. You will need a thick piece of metal with a sharp tip, such as a nail or wood burning tool. Aim the tool at the center of the paper. While holding it in place, push it down until it creates a small hole through the plastic lid. Wiggling the metal item or hitting its back end with a hammer often helps force it through the plastic.\nIf you didn’t use paper to mark the center part of the can, find the center by measuring the can’s diameter.\nTake the paper out if it gets in the way. If you’re having a hard time piercing the plastic, the nail may tear the paper.\nOther tools may be helpful for making the hole. Try making it with the tip of a utility knife. Thick needles or metal skewers are often enough to puncture thinner lids. <img> Fit a toothpick or wood skewer through the hole in the plastic. Fit the paper firmly in the lid if it isn’t there already. Then, push the wooden stick about ⅓ of the way through the lid. Toothpicks work well for smaller tops like those made from bottle caps. For larger tops like those made from coffee can lids and the one used in these steps, get a skewer like the kind used to roast marshmallows over a campfire.\nWood skewers and toothpicks are available online or at most general stores.\nIf you wish to shorten a skewer, clip off its end with a sharp pair of scissors or a similar tool.\nIf you’re making a top out of a metal object like a can, use a nail instead of a wood skewer. Hammer it through the center of the metal. <img> Remove the paper and decorate it with markers and sequins. Draw any design you like on the paper with permanent markers or other tools. To add more flash to your top, attach sequins or other decorations with a craft or fabric glue. Use a toothpick to spread a dot of glue on the decoration, then stick it to the paper. Scatter the decorations evenly across the top to keep it well-balanced.\nWhite PVA glue is safe for children decorating the top, but the glue usually doesn’t hold for very long.\nCome up with other ways to decorate the top. For example, wrap colored tape and pipe cleaners around the wood skewer to decorate the top’s handle. <img> Glue the paper to the inside part of the plastic lid. Set the lid so the open end is face up. Spread some glue around inside the lid. White PVA glue works well, but use epoxy for a longer-lasting top. Spread the glue out as needed with a toothpick until it forms a thin layer. Then, place the paper in the lid with the decorations face up.\nTransparent glues are best for this project since they don’t get in the way of the decorations.\nMake sure the holes in the plastic and paper are aligned, or else you won’t be able to fit the wood skewer in place. <img> Slide the wood skewer back through the paper and plastic. Push the toothpick or skewer until it’s about ⅓ of the way through the lid. Check the paper decoration to make sure it stays in place. Then, touch the skewer to see if it fits snugly inside the plastic hole you made. If it doesn’t fit well, remove it and widen the hole a little with a thick needle.\nIf the skewer fits too loosely in the hole, spread some glue around it to fill in the gaps. Hot glue or epoxy work best. <img> Wait for the glue to dry for at least 2 hours before spinning the top. Seeing the top will make you want to spin it right away, but it will last longer if you wait! Set the top aside on a countertop exposed to open air. To create a stronger bond, let the glue dry for 24 hours. Afterwards, let the top spin with dazzling colors!\nThe drying time depends on the type of glue you use. An epoxy glue is better when left alone for up to 72 hours.\nDecorations like sequins are prone to flying off if you don’t give the glue enough time to dry. Make sure they’re well-secured to the paper before spinning the top. <img> ", "Get a heavy washer and craft bead for the top’s base. Look for washers from 1 ⁄2 to 2 ⁄4 in (3.8 to 5.7 cm) in diameter. Bigger washers are heavier and cause the top to spin more. For the beads, get a wooden bead that is as wide as the hole in the center of the washer. The bead needs to fit inside the hole.\nWashers are available at hardware stores and wooden beads are sold at some craft stores. Search online if you can’t find them at a store. <img> Cover the washer with a colorful piece of tape. Choose tape that is wider than the washer, if possible. Cut off a piece of tape that is a little more than twice as long as the washer. Then, fold the tape over to seal the washer in like a wrapped present. Smooth it out to eliminate any wrinkles.\nColored duct tape and washi tape are perfect for wrapping up the washer. If you don’t have tape big enough to cover up the washer, wrap it with several smaller pieces.\nUse scissors as needed to trim the tape so it fits perfectly over the washer. <img> Decorate the top with smaller pieces of tape and other material. Fit smaller strips of decorative tape over the washer to give your top more color. For example, try laying thin strips of red and blue tape over the center of the top. Look for craft tape with designs like flowers or rainbow patterns to make your top unique.\nTape is the easiest way to decorate this type of top, but try gluing objects like sequins to it with PVC glue or epoxy. They likely won’t stay attached very long, but doing the decorating can be fun. The decorations need to be placed fairly evenly across the top to keep it balanced.\nAny decorations in the center of the top will be removed later, so keep this in mind when arranging patterns. <img> Cut the center of the washer out with a utility knife. Find a sharp utility knife or craft knife. Touch the top to find the hollow part in the center. Then, carefully cut around the inside part of the top. Remove all of the tape and other material from this center spot.\nAnother way to do this is by poking a hole through the tape with a toothpick or metal needle. Slip the tip of a scissor blade inside the hole, then cut out the tape. <img> Glue a wooden bead to the center of the hole. Fit the bead snugly inside of the hole. To glue it in place, warm up a hot glue gun. Hold the tip of the glue gun above the bead, then press the trigger to fill in the gaps between it and the washer. Let the glue cool for about 24 hours to ensure it sets in place.\nMake sure the holes in the bead face away from the washer or else you won’t be able to fit the top’s handle through it.\nA clear glue works best since it doesn’t stand out as much.\nFlip the top over and glue together the bottom surface. If 1 side is undecorated, spread the glue on that side so it’s more hidden. <img> Slide a wood skewer through the bead and trim it to size. Use a marshmallow skewer to support the weight of the metal washer. Position the top so it is about ⁄4 in (0.64 cm) up the length of the skewer. When the top is positioned correctly, the top will be able to spin without bumping the surface underneath it. Trim the top off the skewer with scissors so you are able to easily grab and spin the top by its handle.\nMake the top half of the skewer about the same length as the bottom half. You can leave it a little longer if you need to.\nUsing a skewer helps smaller tops spin more. If you have a larger top, you may be able to spin it without making a handle. <img> Glue the skewer in place and let it dry to finish the top. Warm up the hot glue gun again. Chances are the skewer will be loose in the bead. Use the glue gun to pour glue directly into the hole where the skewer rests. Fill it and let the top sit still for about 24 hours to cure.\nIf you move the top too soon, the skewer will likely fall out. You will need to glue it in place again.\nUse plenty of glue to ensure the skewer doesn’t move inside the bead while you’re spinning the top. If the skewer feels loose, add more glue and wait for it to dry again. <img> ", "Purchase some wooden wheels and dowels. Find wheels and dowels that are the same size. The smaller toy wheels about 1 ⁄4 in (3.2 cm) in diameter with a ⁄4 in (0.64 cm) hole are the best to get. Then, get some ⁄4 in (0.64 cm)-thick dowels that will fit snugly in those holes.\nThese wooden components are available online and at some craft supply stores. The wheels usually come in bags of 100 or 300.\nIf you get larger wheels, get larger dowels as well so your tops are well-balanced. <img> Cut the dowel rod into smaller sections with garden clippers. Using a ruler or tape measure, divide the rod into sections about 2 in (5.1 cm) long. You only need a single 2 in (5.1 cm) section for each top. Mark the dowel with a pencil as needed to remind you where to cut the wood. Then, carefully cut through it.\nIf you use larger wheels, use thicker dowel rods and leave them about the same size. If you need to make the rod longer to balance the top, measure how much wider than 1 ⁄4 in (3.2 cm) your dowel is and add that to the rod length.\nMetal gardening shears are sharp, so have an adult handle the cutting. Consider wearing gardening gloves for protection.\nAnother way to cut the rod is with a hand saw. Wear goggles to protect your eyes from wood shards. <img> Use a pencil sharpener to hone the end of the dowel rod to a point. If you have an ordinary pencil sharpener, the smaller dowel rods fit right into it. Mechanical and electrical sharpeners makes this part easy, but plastic ones work as well. Sharpen the end of the rod so it gradually tapers to a blunt point.\nYou don’t need to sharpen the rod until it’s small and pointed like a pen. Keep it big and gradual like a blunted crayon. <img> Decorate the wheels with paint or markers. Color the wheels to make your own unique top. Draw some patterns or images on it with a set of permanent markers or watercolors. Give the tops about 24 hours to dry before spinning them. Permanent markers create bright, vivid images, while watercolors are good for creating soft, gentle colors.\nDecorate the tops before assembling them. Coloring them is much easier when the wheels are off of the dowel rods. <img> Insert the rod into the wooden wheel. Select one of the toy wheels and push the pointed end of the rod through it. Let the wheel rest about ⅓ of the way up the rod. Make sure the pointed end sticks out slightly so your top spins properly. Then, repeat this with any other rod pieces and wheels you have to assemble more tops.\nIf the rod is too tight to fit in the hole, get a piece of super fine, 400 to 600 grit sandpaper. Applying light pressure, rub down the sides of the rod until the wheel fits snugly over it. <img> Secure the wheel to the rod with wood glue if it is loose. Look for gaps between the wheel and the dowel rod. Spread a glue that works well on wood, such as a carpenter’s glue, epoxy, or a polyurethane super glue. Squeeze the glue into the gaps between the wood components.\nThe glue also holds the wheel in place on the rod. If the wheel fits snugly on the rod, adding glue isn’t necessary.\nGive the glue plenty of time to dry before playing with the top. Wood glue generally sets within 30 minutes or less, but you get a stronger bond by letting it set for a full day. <img> " ]

[ "Eat 6 small meals a day so your stomach doesn’t get too full. If your stomach is too full, the food might flow out of your stomach and into your esophagus. This can further damage your esophagus. To help your esophagus heal, shrink the size of your meals. Rather than eating 3 big meals, eat 6 snack-size meals about every 2-3 hours.\nSmaller meals are less likely to cause acid reflux. This gives your esophagus time to heal. <img> Eliminate your trigger foods from your diet. Keep a food diary to figure out which foods trigger your acid reflux. Then, cut these foods from your diet. This might reduce your acid reflux so your esophagus can heal. Common triggers include the following:\nCaffeine\nSpicy foods\nFatty foods\nMint-flavored foods\nChocolate\nTomatoes\nCitrus\nOnions\nGarlic\nCoffee\nTea\nSoda <img> Eat a high fiber diet so stomach empties faster. Fiber improves your digestive process, so a high fiber diet may help you manage your stomach acid production. Make sure you eat enough fiber to meet your daily dietary recommendations. Consume at least 25 g of fiber daily if you’re a woman or 38 g of fiber daily if you’re a man.\nHigh fiber foods include vegetables, fruits, nuts, seeds, beans, legumes, and whole grains. For example, you could include a daily serving of sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, chia seeds, flax seed, or almonds to boost your fiber intake.Tip: If you don’t consume a lot of high fiber foods, an over-the-counter fiber supplement may help you reach your fiber goals. Talk to your doctor to find out if a fiber supplement is right for you. <img> Consume more probiotics to help your stomach digest food faster. Probiotics support healthy gut bacteria, which supports a healthy digestive system. To increase your probiotics, eat yogurt with live active cultures and fermented foods, such as kimchi, sauerkraut, miso, tempeh, and kombucha. This might reduce your incidence of acid reflux.\nYou can also find over-the-counter probiotic supplements. Check with your doctor to find out if they’re right for you. <img> Stop drinking alcohol because it may cause acid reflux. Alcohol relaxes your esophageal sphincter, which is a muscular ring that closes your esophagus. Normally, your esophageal sphincter prevents your stomach contents from rising up into your esophagus. Since alcohol relaxes your sphincter, it may trigger acid reflux. Eliminate alcohol from your diet to allow your esophagus to heal.\nIf you don’t want to stop drinking, you might limit yourself to 1 drink a day. Additionally, don’t drink within 2 hours before bed because your stomach acid may flow up while you’re sleeping. <img> ", "Maintain a healthy weight to reduce your risk for acid reflux. When you’re carrying excess body weight, it may apply pressure to your esophageal sphincter. This may open your esophageal sphincter, allowing your stomach acid to escape and damage your esophagus. Talk to your doctor to find out your optimal target weight. Then, change your diet and increase your activity to help you reach and maintain your healthy weight.\nDon’t assume you need to lose weight without talking to your doctor. Similarly, don’t make diet or exercise changes without checking with your doctor to make sure they’re safe for you. <img> Take pills with a full glass of water so they don’t lodge in your throat. Pills may get stuck in your throat, which can irritate your esophagus. To prevent this, drink a full glass of water every time you take a pill to wash it down. This might protect your esophagus.\nIf you’re taking more than 1 pill, swallow them 1 at a time to make it easier for them to go down. However, you don’t need to drink more than 1 full glass of water. <img> Stop eating 3 hours before you go to bed. After you eat, it takes a few hours for your body to digest your food. If you lie down during this time, your stomach contents and stomach acid may flow up into your esophagus. Avoid eating late night meals and snacks so you don’t go to bed on a full stomach.\nIt also helps to prop yourself up on pillows or elevate the head of your bed so that your food and stomach acid flow downwards. This may prevent it from damaging your esophagus. <img> Wait 2-3 hours after a meal to engage in vigorous exercise. While it’s okay to take a walk after you eat, intense exercise may push stomach acid up into your esophagus. To prevent further esophageal damage, allow your food to digest for at least 2-3 hours before you work out. This may help you avoid acid reflux so your esophagus can heal.\nFor instance, you might exercise 2 hours after your afternoon meal, just before dinner. Similarly, you might work out in the morning before you eat breakfast. <img> Chew gum to increase saliva production, which neutralizes acid. When you chew gum, your mouth naturally produces more saliva. Because saliva neutralizes stomach acid, chewing gum may help your esophagus heal. Chew a piece of gum after a meal or when you’re experiencing heartburn.\nSince minty flavors might trigger acid production, pick flavors other than mint. <img> Quit smoking to avoid drying out your esophagus. You probably already know that smoking harms your health, but cigarette smoke dries out your esophagus and damages your blood vessels. Smoking also relaxes your esophageal sphincter, which allows your stomach acid to flow up into your esophagus. Quitting is extremely difficult, so talk to your doctor about quitting aids to help you cut out cigarettes for good.\nYour doctor may prescribe you patches, lozenges, gum, acupuncture, and prescription medication to help you quit. <img> ", "Take an herbal acid reflux remedy if your doctor says it’s okay. Herbal treatments for acid reflux include licorice, chamomile, slippery elm, and marshmallow. Purchase capsules or tablets from your local drug store, a health food store, or online. After checking with your doctor, use your herbal treatment as directed on the label.\nDon’t take an herbal remedy without talking to your doctor, as they can interfere with certain medications. Additionally, ask your doctor to recommend the proper dosage for you.\nBe aware that licorice can raise blood pressure if taken in high doses over the long-term. If you do decide to try licorice, opt for a supplement labeled as deglycyrrhizinated, also known as DGL, such as rhizinate chewable DGL. <img> Use relaxation techniques to help prevent acid reflux. Unfortunately, stress may trigger acid reflux, so it’s important to manage your stress levels. To help you keep stress in check, incorporate stress relievers into your daily. Here are some relaxation techniques to try:\n\nMeditate for at least 10 minutes.\n\nPerform progressive muscle relaxation.\nTry guided imagery meditation.\n\nWrite in a journal.\nTalk to a friend about your problems. <img> Try acupuncture to possibly get heartburn relief. While there’s little evidence that it works, you might get heartburn relief from acupuncture. During acupuncture, a licenced acupuncturist inserts tiny needles into your skin to provide a health benefit, such as reduced acid reflux. This may allow your esophagus to heal. Talk to an acupuncturist to find out if the treatment might help you.\nSome people find that acupuncture improves their heartburn, but it doesn’t work the same way for everyone.\nAcupuncture typically isn’t painful but you might experience some discomfort.\nIt’s best to check with your doctor before getting acupuncture. <img> Use over-the-counter antacids to control stomach acid. You might be able to decrease stomach acid damage by taking antacids that are available in drug stores. Antacids neutralize stomach acid so it can’t trigger heartburn. Read the label and take your antacids as directed. Use them as needed to relieve your heartburn.\nCheck with your doctor before using antacids. <img> ", "Check with your doctor before trying natural treatments. While natural treatments are generally safe, they aren’t right for everyone. They may worsen certain medical conditions and may interact with certain treatments. Talk to your doctor to find out if natural treatments are right for you.\nTell your doctor that you’re hoping to heal your esophagus. They may have natural treatment options they can recommend. <img> Get an official diagnosis for your underlying condition. There are several different causes for esophageal damage, so it’s important to get a proper diagnosis. The correct treatment for you depends on what’s damaging your esophagus. Visit your doctor to get a barium X-ray, endoscopy, and lab tests on tissues collected from your esophagus. Then, talk to them about your diagnosis and treatment plan.\nDuring a barium X-ray, your doctor will have you drink a barium compound that will show up on an X-ray. Then, they’ll take a series of X-rays to see your esophagus and look for issues. This text is totally painless.\nFor an endoscopy, your doctor will insert a tiny camera and light down your throat. You might be partially sedated during the test so you’re comfortable. They might collect tissue samples during this test. <img> Ask your doctor if medications may be damaging your esophagus.

In order to be considered, you need to demonstrate that you are at least 21 years old, a US citizen, and currently living in the US. Make sure that your ID is current and accurate so you can submit it as part of the application process.\nYour ID can be your driver’s license or a passport, which will also show your address to provide proof of residency.\nYour birth certificate or social security card can be used to provide proof of residency. <img> Get a physical exam from a doctor to make sure you’re healthy. In order to qualify and handle the challenges of the show, you need to be in great physical and mental health. Getting an official medical exam will tell you and show the producers of Big Brother that your body and mind can handle the rigors of the show.\nAsk for a signed copy of your physical from your doctor so you can provide it to the producers if they request it. <img> Ask your job if you can take time off to be on the show. During the initial application process, you can work around your work schedule to focus on completing your application and audition video. But if you make it to the final stages and are being considered as a cast member, you must be able to meet the producers when and where they ask you to meet them. Check with your job to see if they would allow you to take time off to be on the show.Tip: Don’t quit your job if you can help it! Even if you get onto the show, it’s possible you may get evicted, or eliminated from competition. You'll want to make sure you have employment to return to <img> Consider carefully whether you can handle the challenges of the show. As a contestant– or \"HouseGuest\"– on Big Brother, you’ll be completely isolated from the outside world, but any and all of your actions could be broadcast on live TV. You’ll have to participate in weekly challenges and competitions, and you’ll be expected to share very personal information about yourself with people you don't know. Before you decide to apply to be on Big Brother, you need to think about whether you’re up for the difficulties inherent to the show, including lack of privacy and isolation from your friends and family. <img> ", "Write out a script for your audition video. Your audition video must be less than 3 minutes, and it shouldn’t revolve around crazy costumes or wacky antics. The producers of Big Brother are looking for genuine people to cast on their show, so you should use your script as a guide as you talk about yourself in a natural and confident manner. Don't read from a script verbatim, or you’ll appear rigid and unnatural.\nTell the producers why you think you would do well on the show and why you think you could win.\nTalk about your life: where you grew up, your childhood, your hobbies, and your passions. <img> Try to describe how your past experiences have shaped who you are.\nDiscuss your previous romantic relationships and your current relationship status. You don't need to go into extreme detail, but you should be candid and open about your love life. <img> Rehearse your video with friends to get their feedback. Before you record your video, you should test out your script in front of some friends. Ask them what they think about it and if they have suggestions that could make it more interesting. It can be helpful to get another person’s perspective.Tip: Time yourself with a stopwatch to make sure you’re under 3 minutes. <img> Record a 3-minute video. The easiest way to record a high-quality short video is to use a smartphone camera, but you can also use a digital camera. Use your script as your guide and try to relax and act natural. Remember: you can shoot as many takes as you want, so take your time and get it right!\nRecord in a well-lit room with the lights in front of you, and avoid shooting in front of a window with sunlight behind it.\nDon’t record with the sun directly behind you and shoot during the day for better lighting.\nTry to avoid loud and crowded rooms or windy areas for better sound quality. <img> Save the video to your computer so you can upload it. If you recorded your audition video on a smartphone or a digital camera, save it to your computer so you can easily upload it as part of your application. Connect your smartphone or your digital camera to your computer and move or copy the file to your desktop.\nPlay the video after you save it to test that the video file works and make sure it looks right. <img> ", "Fill out the online application at https://www.bigbrothercasting.tv/home.

[ "Measure out a 7x7 inch square of 10 ounce duck cloth. Use a ruler or measuring tool to measure out a piece of canvas that is 7 inches wide and 7 inches long. Make a mark at each of the 7-inch points so you will have a guideline for cutting the canvas. You can also draw lines connecting the marks so that you have a square pattern to cut along.\nDuck cloth is a durable type of canvas that can withstand heavy wear, making it the ideal fabric for making cornhole bags. You can purchase duck cloth at your local fabric store or favorite online fabric retailer.\nDon’t substitute duck cloth for any other canvas or fabric material. If you need extra durable material, substitute 12 oz. duck cloth. <img> Cut the duck cloth into a 7x7 inch square. Use fabric scissors or a rotary cutter to make sharp cuts. Cut along a straight edge to make the cut so that you won’t have any jagged edges.\nIf you’re using a rotary cutter, make your cuts on a cutting mat so you don’t cause any damage to your work surface. <img> Repeat 15 more times so you have 16 squares total. A full set of cornhole bags has 8 bags: 4 bags of one color/pattern, and 4 of another color/pattern. You will need two different colors/patterns of duck cloth to create a full set.\nEach bag is made up of two 7x7 squares that are stitched together. Repeat this process 15 times. You should end up with 16 squares; 8 of one color/pattern and 8 of your second color/pattern. You will have a bit of canvas left over. <img> ", "Create a ½-inch seam allowance. Lay two squares of the same color/pattern on top of each other and measure a ½ inch in from the edge of the fabric. Use a straight edge and a marking pen to mark ½-inch guidelines along each edge. Repeat this process on all four sides of the fabric so that you have a square is drawn that is ½ inch in from your fabric edges. \nA seam allowance is the distance between the fabric’s edge and where you will sew.Having a seam allowance prevents fraying and will create a more durable bean bag. These guidelines are where you will sew the squares together to create a bag.\nIf your canvas has two distinct sides to it, lay the squares together with the colored/patterned sides facing each other. You'll flip the bag inside out after sewing it to reveal the patterned side. <img> Insert sewing pins along the guidelines. Mark the seam allowance guidelines with pins on three sides of the square. On the fourth side, begin to pin the edge as you did the other three but keep an opening about 2 ½ inches wide so you can fill the bag before sewing it shut. This will mean using fewer pins than you did on the other three sides.\nUsing pins to reinforce your guidelines will keep your canvas aligned as you sew, which will prevent any gaps or inconsistencies. <img> Follow your seam allowance guidelines and sew the two pieces together. You can sew by hand or use a sewing machine, but be sure to use polyester thread or a similar sewing thread that is just as thick and durable. Remember to leave a gap to fill your bag!\nIf you are using a sewing machine, use two needles and two bobbins to create a double stitch seam.\nIf you are sewing by hand, you will need a thicker needle for sewing on canvas. As you hand sew each seam, incorporate back stitches to add durability. <img> Add a double-stitched seam for durability. Once you have sewn a seam, go back and add a second seam in between the original and the edge of the fabric to create a double-stitched seam. A double-stitched seam will add enough strength to your bag so it won’t tear as it hits the cornhole boards.\nIf you're using a sewing machine, you should have already created a double-stitched seam by using two bobbins and two needles. <img> ", "Cut the excess fabric on each corner of the bag. Use your scissors or rotary cutter to trim off the corners at a diagonal. This will prevent gapping and remove any fabric that may get in the way of throwing the bags. <img> Use a scale to weigh out up to 16 oz of your preferred filling. You can use either dry corn feed or plastic pellets. Most bags weigh in at 16 oz. Different cornhole leagues play with bags weighing in anywhere from 15.5. to 16.25 oz.\nDry corn is a traditional filling for backyard cornhole that creates a “dusting” effect as the corn breaks down, which can help your bags slide across the boards. Since corn is a natural material, it can decay over time and may mold or attract pests if not stored properly. You can purchase dry corn at most feed stores or from online retailers.\nPlastic pellets are a longer-lasting and more durable filling option than corn, but they tend to bounce off the boards and won’t have the sliding capacity that corn-filled bags acquire. You can purchase plastic pellets at most craft stores or in the craft sections of big-box retailers. <img> Hold the edges of the bag apart and pour your filling into the pouch. If you’re having trouble doing this, consider using a funnel tool to hold the pouch open while you pour. Leave a couple of inches of space so you'll have enough room to sew up the bag. <img> ", "Fold the opening of the bag together. Roll the fabric down as you pinch the filling down to the bottom of the bag. You want to pack the filling as much as possible so you can grab enough excess fabric to insert sewing pins.. <img> Insert pins along the opening, using the seam as a guideline. Take caution not to get any filling between the pins and the edge of the bag.. <img> Sew the opening shut using the double-stitched seam method. Line up your seam with the part of the edge you sewed earlier.\nRepeat the sewing and filling methods until you have a complete set of 8 bags; 4 of each color. <img> " ]

[ "Sit next to him in class. Even if your teacher doesn’t allow much chatter, your odds of talking to him are better if you're next to him. You'll be able to interact with him more often than if you were on opposite sides of the room. For example, you may need to borrow a pencil, or pass handouts to each other.\nIf you don't have class with him, or if your teacher doesn’t let you pick your seats, sit near him in the cafeteria or hang out with him during breaks. Say \"hi\" to him in the halls!\nThe more he is around you, the more likely he is to eventually develop feelings. You'll also be able to use body language to attract him, which will be explained later. <img> Figure out what to say. It can be scary to talk to someone you have a crush on, but it will definitely get his attention. Having an idea of what to say ahead of time may help, though. Rather than planning out word for word what to say, just have a general idea.\nFor example, you can plan to ask about certain topics, like a question about the homework assignment or make a comment about an upcoming project.\nMake sure you don’t sound too rehearsed. The more natural and casual you seem, the better. This can be avoided by not planning a script.\nKeep it casual. Rather than saying, “Hello. I remember you enjoy [TV show]. Did you watch the episode last night?\" try “Oh hey, you watch [TV show] right? Did you catch last night’s episode?” <img> Start a conversation. This will show him that you’re friendly and want to get to know him better. Use something around you for inspiration, like the crazy weather, the boring homework assignment, or the new movie that's coming out. A question would be even better, because this will help the conversation move along.\nAsk something that doesn't require a \"yes\" or \"no\" answer. For example, you could ask: \"How do you feel about the project?\" or \"What do you plan on doing for the project.\"\nTry not to feel too nervous or worry too much about what he thinks. It'll make the chat go more smoothly. <img> Find common interests. If you know you cheer for the same sports team or watch the same weekly television shows, bring that up in conversation. If you saw he ate your favorite flavor of chips for lunch, say something. It doesn’t matter what it is — common interests or hobbies are great ways to start conversations that can lead to other things. If he sees similarities in you, he will be more likely to like you!\nIf you don’t have any common interests, make some. For example, if he wore a band t-shirt to school, listen to their music and mention it in conversation.\nAt the same time, don't fake it. If you don't like the band, don't pretend you do. Consider looking up another band for the same genre, or even asking him for recommendations! <img> ", "Face him. Turning your body towards his is a welcoming and friendly gesture, and can warm a person up to us without them even realizing you’re doing anything. When you speak to him, make sure your legs are pointing towards him. If you’re in a chair, swivel your body so you’re facing him. If you’re standing in a circle and he approaches, turn your body so that it’s angled toward him. Try to keep your body angled toward wherever he is.\nDon’t make a spectacle of yourself turning your body towards him. Keep it subtle and natural. <img> Smile. Happiness is an incredibly attractive feature, and a big smile is sure to catch his eye. You don’t have to plaster a giant grin on your face, but try to smile as much as you possibly can in his presence. When your teacher makes a small joke, when your friend asks to borrow a pencil, whenever. Just show him that you’re a happy, upbeat person.\nFake smiles are pretty easy to spot, so make your smile look genuine and real by thinking of something funny or happy.\nYou don't need to smile 24/7 like a Barbie, but flashing an authentic smile whenever something makes you happy is a great idea. <img> Make physical contact when appropriate. No, you don’t need to give him a giant kiss on the cheek when you say hello or rub his back while he’s doing homework. Instead, find ways to casually touch him. When he makes a joke, brush his arm while you laugh.\nFor example, you can tap his shoulder if you need get his attention. If he’s passing a paper to you, graze his hand when you take it.\nDon’t be overly aggressive. The smallest physical contact can get a guy’s attention. <img> Mirror him. This is a subtle little trick to make you seem interested and likable to your crush. Again, it’s a simple way to make him feel connected and welcomed by you. Watch his body language, and mimic it. If he leans towards you, lean into him. If he leans up against a locker, lean up against a locker. If he runs a hand through his hair, wait a few seconds, then do the same. It’s really simple, and it’s really effective.\nBe sure to allow a 3 to 4-second delay before mirroring his action. You don't want to literally mime him—that will look more strange than endearing. <img> ", "Invite him to things. It doesn’t have to be any sort of romantic invitation. You can ask him to see a movie with a whole group of people, or work on some homework together. You can even ask if he just wants to meet up at a school sporting event or another local event in town. It doesn’t matter what the invitation is — what matters is that you’re showing interest and getting to spend time with him outside of school.\nDon't worry if he rejects your invitation once. He could be shy or just busy. If he rejects 2 or more invitations, however, consider moving on. <img> Create opportunities to be with him. Sometimes, there simply might not be anything fun to invite him to. Create a way to spend extra time with him. If you walk home from school every day, maybe you can change your route a bit so that you can walk with him. Ask him to study with you or work on a project together if you're in the same class. Join him in whatever activity he does during breaks. You might have to get a bit creative, but you should certainly be able to find ways to get extra face time with your crush. <img> Make mutual friends. This is key. If your crush spends all of his time with a certain group of people, it can be really helpful to befriend them. By joining his social circle, you’ll increase your odds of seeing him at social events outside of school. Of course, this doesn’t mean to ditch your current friends or use his friends to get to this boy. Dont try to hard, take it chill and try to be friends first. For example:\nSit next to his friends in class and start a conversation. Don't be pushy or fake about it, however.\nCompliment his female friends. If you like their backpack or outfit, mention it! Don't let jealousy get in the way and did them.\nGo out of your way to make his friends see you as a friendly, warm person.. If you're having a party, make sure you invite his friends and not just him. <img> Be honest. Tell him that you like him. It’s best to do this if you think he’s returned your flirty vibes, and you’ve developed a level of comfort around each other. Let your friendship grow a little bit before revealing your crush, just so he doesn’t feel overwhelmed or totally caught off guard. Not only will he be impressed that you had the confidence to tell him your feelings outright, he will also be flattered. Who wouldn’t?\nSome signs that he might be into you include: initiating physical closeness, laughing at jokes or having inside jokes with you, gently teasing you, blushing around you, making an effort to be around you, and asking you questions about yourself.\nYou don’t need to make this a serious, sit-down chat in which you pour out your heart. All you need to do is tell him what you think about him, or what makes you like being around him. Keep it casual.\nDo this when you’re able to talk to him alone. It’s okay if you’re with a group of people, just try to find a time to break apart and talk to him one-on-one.\nSay something like, “I have so much fun hanging out with you. I think you’re really funny and smart, and I like you as more than a friend.” <img> Let him speak and respect his feelings. You’ve put your cards on the table, and now you can give him the opportunity to do the same. Simply ask something like, “So, do you think you may have a bit of a crush on me?” It sounds terrifying, but it could make the difference. He may be shy, so respect that he might not be comfortable answering you. Don't pressure him or demand a certain answer.\nWhile a rejection might hurt at first, it'll save you time and hurt feelings in the future. It'll allow you to move on; you won't have to waste time and energy and on a boy who doesn’t return your feelings. <img> " ]

[ "Review the route map and find the stations nearest where you wish to go. There are five lines, referred to by their end points (not by their colors).\nRichmond ↔ Daly City - Millbrae: The line terminates at Millbrae on weeknights before 8 PM. At all other times except Sundays, this line terminates at Daly City. This line does not run on Sunday.\nWarm Springs or Fremont ↔ Richmond: The line runs to Warm Springs on evenings and weekends, and to Fremont on weekdays before the evening)\nWarm Springs or Fremont ↔ Daly City: The line runs to Warm Springs on weekdays before the evening, and to Fremont on Saturday; it does not run in the evenings or on Sundays\nPittsburg / Bay Point ↔ SFO: When the Richmond - Millbrae line is not running (i.e., on evenings and weekends), this line also goes to Millbrae\nDublin / Pleasanton ↔ Daly City <img> Find the stations nearest your starting point and your destination, and determine the trains to use to get from the former to the latter. You can use BART's \"Find Closest Station\" feature. Then check the schedule (keep in mind that the schedule differs for weekdays and weekends). Decide when you wish to arrive at your destination and work back from that.\nThe BART schedule is very complex. Some lines change destinations based on time. All lines have variable schedules based on day and time. If you are unfamiliar with the BART schedule, check online first. Once you enter the station, there are station maps within the station that you can access. <img> Find out the fare required for the trip you will take. BART determines fares based on the point of entry and exit, and one-way fares range from $1.95 (for stations that are within 6 miles of one another) to $15.70 (between the San Francisco International Airport and the Oakland International Airport). You can use the fare calculator on the BART website. <img> Use route-planning tools such as Google Maps or competing services, on the web or an appropriate app on your phone. When using these services, you may need to select the public transit option, and you may be shown options other than BART. Google Maps also includes a fare when it shows routes. You may also use the Google Maps Schedule Explorer to get a clearer idea of additional options and their timings. <img> ", "Go to the BART station where you start your trip. You may use your mapping tool to guide yourself toward the station. Look for the BART logo to identify the station. You can also look for 15 foot pillars with the name of the station and the BART logo, along with escalators and elevators going down.\nIf you will park a car at the BART station, be aware that parking at some locations fills up very early on weekdays. Also, some stations charge a nominal fee to park. Reserved parking, daily parking, and long-term airport parking permits are available for purchase. Note that not all stations have parking. In the BART system map, stations that have parking are designated with a P. <img> Buy a ticket. Ticket machines at each station take cash and change as well as credit and debit cards. Many retail locations near BART lines also sell tickets.\nTickets are sold according to how much money you put on them. You can add fare to a ticket while you are inside the BART system.\nCheck to see if you are eligible for any of the discounts. Students, seniors, and \"persons with disabilities, Medicare cardholders and children 5 to 12 years old\" are eligible.\nYou can put enough money on one ticket for multiple rides and use it several times.\nBART charges your ticket based only on where you enter the system and where you exit the system, so there is no charge for changing trains. You need to use your ticket or card at both entry and exit.\nWhen making a roundtrip, if you know exactly how much you will spend on the roundtrip, add enough fare for the roundtrip when buying the ticket. This will reduce your time spent waiting in line on the return journey.\nStarting in 2021, BART ticket machines only dispense Clipper Cards.\nIf you are a one-time BART user and are not sure what your exact fare should be, it is better to underpay initially and use the Add Fare gate if you have insufficient balance to exit. <img> Check for announcements about system-wide delays before entering the station. Such announcements are available on BART's website and will also be displayed at the station. This is particularly important if it is very critical for you to be at your destination by a specific time. <img> Tap your Clipper Card to the entrance reader. Keep your Clipper Card with you, since you will need it to exit BART on the other end.\nWalk on the left side of escalators, and stand to the right. Do not bring strollers, bikes, large suitcases, etc on escalators.\nFollow the signs and listen carefully to the announcements. Generally, the automated announcements for trains in one direction are made by a male and the automated announcements for trains in the other direction are made by a female.\nBART etiquette is to leave a space for passengers exiting the train, and then board.\nIf you need to use the elevator, pay before proceeding to the elevator. <img> ", "Board the correct train and ride BART to your destination.\nTrains are supposed to stop so that the doors of the train align with the black demarcated areas in the yellow strip adjacent to the tracks on the platform. During crowded hours, people generally form lines in front of the black areas.\nTrains vary in length from 3 to 10 cars. Each station can accommodate a ten-car train in each direction, and has twenty designated black demarcated areas where train doors may open (two per car, although the new trains that are progressively being rolled out have three doors per car). Trains with an even number of cars stop leaving an equal amount of space at the front and back (so for instance an 8-car train will leave 1 car of space in front and 1 car at the back when it stops). Trains with an odd number of cars leave an additional car's worth of space in the front than in the back (so for instance a 7-car train will leave 2 cars of space in the front and 1 in the back). Downtown San Francisco stations have markers on the walls indicating the beginning and end of the boarding zone for trains of different car lengths, but not all BART stations have these markers. Both the automated voice announcements and the automated displays include the number of cars in the train, so use this information to position yourself within the platform.\nA good rule of thumb is that, generally, the middle cars of a train are likely to be the most crowded, because most stations are designed so that the entrance to the platform is in the middle, and most people don't walk over to the ends of the platform. To maximize the chance of getting seating space or comfortable standing space, board the front or rear car of the train. Note, however, that bicycles are not allowed on the front car. <img> Practice good train etiquette.\nDo not stand in the doorway for long, or try to walk through the doors as they are closing. Be particularly careful about rushing bikes through doorways. Jammed doorways can hold up the train for you and your fellow passengers, and also prevent additional trains from arriving at the station.\nThe seats closest to the doors are for the elderly, pregnant women, and handicapped people. Please yield these seats to those in need of them. If there are other vacant seats, use them so that you won't need to vacate your seat on demand.\nSome seats on the train face other seats. These usually have less leg room, so avoid these seats if you care about leg room.\nKeep your belongings off the seat next to you and off the aisles. Place them on your lap or under your seat. If you are standing, you have a backpack and the train is reasonably crowded, take off your backpack and place it between or next to your feet, so as to make more space for others.\nIf standing, do not cluster near the doors if there is space elsewhere within the train. Move to the middle or ends of the car. Do not lean against the doorways. If standing near the doors, keep in mind that doors open on different sides at different stations. <img> Exit the train.\nKeep in mind that doors open on different sides at different stations. On two-track island platform stations, doors open on the left, whereas on stations with separate platforms for each side, doors open on the right. At timed transfer stations such as MacArthur, 12th Street, and 19th Street, there are island platforms where both trains are traveling in the same direction, so one of them has doors opening on the left and the other has doors opening on the right. Also keep in mind that unlike many other train systems, the direction in which doors will open is not announced by the train operator, so you need to pay attention to the station geography or other people's behavior.\nIf you are far from the car door, make your way to the door in advance of arriving at the station.\nCheck for all your personal items before making your way to the door. If you are missing a personal item, take a little time to search for it. You can report lost items to the station agent or recover them from the BART website.\nIf you miss getting off at your designated station (either because you don't notice it, or it's too crowded, or you are looking for a missing item) stay calm and get off at the next station, then ride a train in the opposite direction. You will not be charged extra for doing so. <img> Insert the ticket into the turnstile (or touch your card) on your way out. If any fare is left on the ticket, it will be returned to you for further use\nDo not exit through an emergency exit, otherwise you might be charged a much larger fee a few hours later as BART does not know where you exited.\nSince exits tend to be clustered at the times when trains arrive at the station, you may need to wait in line to exit. Be sure to keep your card or ticket out and ready to use for when it's your turn, so as not to waste other people's time.\nSometimes, fare gates don't work, and say \"See Agent\". Before seeing an agent, try an alternative fare gate. If the alternative fare gate doesn't work either, then see an agent. Do not just leave the station through an emergency exit.\nIf you see an \"Insufficient value on card\" message at the fare gate, use the AddFare booths inside the station to add value. Note that these booths can only be used to add enough value to exit the station. You need to use the booths outside the paid area of the BART system to add more value. <img> " ]

[ "Believe that you're the best. Cockiness comes from a confidence (many would say \"arrogance\") that you're the most competent, most interesting, best-looking person in the room (even if you're not!) You also need to believe the reverse - that most of the people you meet are all dull, boring, and/or incompetent. If you sincerely believe that you're number one and that almost everyone else can't touch you, the following steps will be much easier. They may even start to fall into place on their own.\nTry to mentally elevate and venerate the things you're good at while giving little importance to the things you're bad at. Are you a great student but a bad athlete? Then think like this: \"I'm the smartest person I know. I'm going to land a sweet job one day. Who cares about these meat-head jocks that people seem to like so much? Sports aren't important - these guys will be washing my car in just a few years.\" <img> Take it for granted that everyone loves you. A cocky person is the life of the party - any party. S/he is the reason that people are having fun. Keep this mentality at social gatherings - since everyone already likes you, you can skip boring small talk and get right to the interesting topics, like yourself! Assume a certain level of familiarity with everyone - if everyone's your friend, you can jump right into their conversations and even lightly tease them (like a friend would.)\nFor instance, let's say a cocky person has just arrived at a party. She sees a semi-close acquaintance having a conversation with someone in the corner. The cocky person might, without hesitation, wordlessly sneak up on her acquaintance, remaining just out of his line of sight, then chime in to the conversation unexpectedly as a shocking, funny prank. The assumption of familiarity is crucial - a less cocky person might have simply walked up to her acquaintance, made an awkward, stilted introduction, then excused herself from the conversation.\nSincerity is key here. People naturally look to others for social cues, so the more you sincerely believe that you're the center of attention, the more other people will too. <img> Let your opinions be known. The only time a cocky person is indecisive is when s/he is deciding which supermodel to ask out first. Cocky people have a strong opinion on almost everything and they're almost never afraid to share it. They don't worry about offending others because they know that they're right - if someone else doesn't want to admit it, that's not the cocky person's problem. A cocky person isn't afraid of a good debate - after all, he's sure to win because he knows he's right.\nOn the other hand, a cocky person won't ever embarrass himself by getting too emotionally invested in an argument. He feels no need to waste energy yelling or resorting to personal insults. After all, he's right-, so why would he need to?\nA cocky person won't refrain from correcting someone out of politeness. Let's say his history teacher mistakenly says that East and West Germany reunited in 1989, not 1990. He will raise his hang and politely (but firmly) explain the teacher's mistake: \"Excuse me, I think Germany was formally reunited in 1990. My Grandma was there.\" <img> Assume that everyone thinks you're hot. Knowing that someone desires you is a big confidence booster - imagine how your confidence will skyrocket if you simply assume that everyone thinks you're hot stuff! Take great pride in your looks and your charm. Are you wearing a new outfit for the first time? Hold your head high - be confident that everyone's admiring you. Give an alluring smile to the guy that you're interested in. If you believe that everyone already is in love with you, you've got no reason to worry.\nTruly cocky people exude an air of easy confidence, so even if you've put a great deal of effort into your appearance or behavior, act as if it's effortless. If complimented on a bold style choice, say \"Oh this? Just something I found in the closet\" rather than \"It took me four hours to put together, so I sure hope it looks good!\" <img> Don't let haters get you down. Rock your flaws. It's sad, but true: no matter how excellent you are, you'll eventually run into people who refuse to give you the respect you deserve. You might even run into the occasional person who doesn't like you. Don't bother with such small-minded people. If they don't love you, there's something wrong with them, not you.\nHaters often are aiming to get a reaction out of you. Don't give haters what they want by letting them get you angry or flustered. Casually dismiss them with a line like, \"You're just jealous because you share my impeccable taste in everything.\" <img> Get confident. Cockiness is an exaggerated form of personal confidence. To be truly cocky, you've got to have a good, self-confident foundation to work with. Cockiness without real confidence comes across as pathetic posturing, which is the opposite of what you want. Rather than seeming like you're not worried about what people think, you'll seem to be worried about what everyone thinks.\nIf you're not confident, there's no magic way to become so overnight, However, to start down the path towards confidence, begin by working towards achievements that make you proud. The good feeling you get from making these achievements will fuel you make bigger achievements, and, ultimately, become more skilled, experienced, and confident. <img> ", "Let everyone know how awesome you are. Don't be afraid to share your greatness. If you've gotten the hang of thinking of yourself as the top dog, it's time to start spreading the word. Here, a little finesse is required - if you simply walk around telling everyone you meet that you're great and they're garbage, people will think you're a bully or a psychopath. Instead, just use the opportunities you get in normal conversations to slip in cocky mentions of yourself.\nFor example, if your friends are discussing last weekend's big soccer game, you might say, \"Yeah, Beckham's goal was alright, but his passing game was pretty sloppy. When I played club soccer, I wouldn't have let the ball get away from me so often.\"\nWhen you're in a competition against someone, it's very cocky to engage in a little trash talk. If you're competing against a romantic interest, it can even be a little flirtatious. Just make sure to keep away from low blows - if you're really cruel, you can get penalized or ejected. <img> Take compliments like a champ. If you get a compliment (and you will), take it while subtly acknowledging that you already know you're the best. Instead of saying, \"Really? Gee, thanks!\" when you get a compliment, instead say \"Thanks, that's great to hear.\" You want to give other people the impression that you're not surprised that everyone's jealous of you. Show the world that you expect to be adored. <img> Show your achievements off. Truly cocky people have things to be cocky about. Be proud about whatever you've achieved in life. Bring these things up whenever you get the chance. Whenever you make a new achievement, relish your victory. Celebrate with your friends. Act especially confident and self-assured afterwords. You might even consider changing your appearance after you've achieved something (within reason.) After a big sports victory, you might, for instance, wear your jersey or letterman jacket to school the next day.\nBe warned - rubbing an opponent's nose in his or her failure is not good cocky behavior. It's embarrassing for everyone involved, especially you. Being a sore winner reeks of low confidence - cocky people know they're going to win ahead of time, so they're not hard on their opponents when their prediction comes true. <img> Get some serious friends. A cocky person doesn't have to have millions of fake friends and hangers-on. In fact, a person who worries too much about how many friends s/he has seems insecure - the opposite of cocky. You should, however, have a posse of people you can confidently call homie, dog, bud, or pal. The knowledge that you have people you can turn to when life gets tough will make you more confident and willing to take risks. Also, good friends are great companions or wingmen for your cocky pursuits! <img> Be generous with your affection. Properly applied, the sense of touch can be used create a lasting impression that you're confident about your body. However, if you're too generous with when and where you touch people, you'll be labeled a creep. This distinction can be a thin line, so to start with small, simple shows of affection. When greeting someone, give him or her a hug instead of a handshake. If someone says something funny, gently touch his or her shoulder as you laugh. Stand close to someone you like, brushing up against him or her \"accidentally.\" Making these small affectionate gestures can go a long way towards showing you're confident and not worried about peoples' reactions to your affection - in a word, cocky.\nCocky touching is great for flirting as long as it's used within reason. Adjust your body language to suit your partners' - if at any point s/he seems uncomfortable or creeped out, ease off on your shows of affection. <img> Flirt like a player. Cocky people know they're universally desired, so they have no trouble flirting with the people that they're \"in to.\" They approach romantic interests without hesitation. They're cool and confident when they talk to people that they \"dig.\" They're never afraid of being rebuffed. After all, they know that people should be flattered by the opportunity to be hit on by an absolute stud!\nCocky people are shameless when they flirt. Be scandalous! Let a person you're interested in know exactly how you feel, while stopping just short of things that you think will creep him or her out. <img> Move on from life's inevitable difficulties. No one's life is perfect. Even the most confident, self-assured people in the world have to deal with periodic setbacks and problems. Take these as they come - there's no way to avoid every single hardship in life. Don't feel the need to keep up a cocky façade when you're hurting. If, for instance, you lose a beloved relative, your normal cockiness will seem very unnatural and forced. Everyone has occasional bad spells - if you pretend that you don't, you'll only make if harder to move on. Give your problems the attention they deserve and you'll eventually be back to your old cocky self.\nCockiness is partly self-deception. Cocky people create idealized visions of themselves in their mind and act as if these \"perfect\" visions are the reality, when in fact, they are not. Temporary difficulties are great opportunities for self-reflection. Ask yourself questions like \"In what ways have I had an unrealistic image of myself?\" and \"Have I been too cocky?\" Life's difficulties can act as checks on out-of-control egos and keep us from becoming insufferable narcissists. <img> ", "Keep a strong, secure posture. One great way of telegraphing to everyone in the room that you're cocky is to display this trait with confident body language. You'll want to have a broad, erect stance as your default way of standing. Keep your shoulders back and your head up while holding your chest up. It sounds crazy, but it works - changing from a slouched or slumped default posture to a more dignified one can make a marked difference on how people think of you (and how you think of yourself.) <img> Show your cockiness on your face. Cocky people know that they're the coolest person to walk the face of the earth - their faces should reflect this. A cocky person is perpetually amused with himself. Keep a proud smile on your face whenever you can. When you're interacting with someone, especially if it's someone you're interested in romantically, you might want to add a little mischievousness to your expression, as if you consider the conversation to be an amusing game.\nThese relatively small changes to your expression can cause significant changes in your behavior. Pretending to feel a certain way can actually make you feel that way, which will make your cockiness seem all the more natural. <img> Display your cockiness in the way you move. Cocky people always know what they're doing and where they're going. Your movements should reflect this. Walk with confidence - keep your head up and your shoulders back as you take fairly quick strides toward where you want to go. Whenever possible, walk in a straight line to your desired location. Don't slow down or dawdle unless you come across something or someone who interests you. \nIdeally, you want to create the impression that everything you do is important, so walk as if you need to make an important appointment. Most people will naturally assume that you are important. <img> Show off your best features. Cocky people know they're hot! Dress to show off the hottest aspects of your body. If you've got great, muscly arms, wear short sleeves to have the ladies swooning. Have you got long, sexy legs? Show them off with some tight jeans! Don't be shy - you're the best-looking person you know, so it'd be a disservice not to flaunt what you've got. <img> Appear bold, not defensive. Cocky people have confidence in their opinions - the way they gesture and position their body should reflect this. Always face and make eye contact with whomever you're talking to. Generally, you should position yourself so that the front of your body is facing whoever you're engaged with - a good rule is to keep your belly button pointed at whoever's most interesting to you at a given moment. This way, even if you have to momentarily avert your gaze for some reason, the full weight of your body language is still brought to bear on who you're talking to.\nDon't appear defensive during confrontations. For instance, if you're engaged in an argument or debate, don't cross your arms and look away.

Before freezing the cupcakes, they must cool, to avoid the build-up of condensation and moisture in the cupcake container. The best way to cool cupcakes fully is to leave them on a wire rack for about an hour, until they are cool enough to touch and handle.\nWire racks are highly more recommended so that the air can circulate more easily around the cupcakes. This prevents the cupcakes from getting soggy on the bottom while they are cooling. <img> Frost the cupcakes. In order to freeze frosted cupcakes, they must be frosted correctly. Consider using a frosting pipe to pipe the frosting neatly on top of the cupcakes. Add a good amount of frosting for each cupcake, as once you freeze the cupcakes, you cannot frost them again. There are a variety of frosting flavors to choose from: buttercream frosting, chocolate frosting, strawberry frosting, and cream cheese frosting. <img> Freeze the cupcakes in an uncovered container. The container should be large enough to carry all the cupcakes you have and tall enough to prevent the cupcakes from squishing into each other. Place the cupcakes to freeze in an open container so that the frosting can freeze thoroughly, usually taking about 3-4 hours. Ensure the frosting is solid before removing it from the freezer. <img> Store the cupcakes in a container. Using the same container as before, snap the lid on tightly so the cupcakes can freeze until they are ready to be eaten. Make sure the container is large enough so that the frosting does not touch the cupcakes while freezing them. <img> Store and cover the cupcakes with aluminum foil. Instead of a container, you can also freeze the cupcakes in foil. Freeze the frosted cupcakes without covering them for about 3-4 hours so the frosting can become solid. Cover each cupcake with aluminum foil carefully, taking care not to touch the frosting.

After about an hour, slightly crack open the container or Ziploc bag. If the cupcakes were wrapped in foil, remove some of the foil off each cupcake, but not all of it.

[ "Always allow your opponent to attack first. If you are seen, you can claim you were defending yourself. If the authorities believe you, your opponent will you be the one who gets in trouble. \nIf your opponent refuses to strike first, just walk away.\nExpect to be in serious trouble if you hurt your opponent, even when they started it. Many schools have a zero-tolerance policy on violence, and will suspend or expel both kids involved in a fight. <img> Remember that when you are on school property, laws are stricter. You aren't protected by the same constitutional rights that normally apply when you are at home.\nSome schools call the police for even the most minor fights or other public displays of anger like punching lockers or throwing things.\nIn some states, the same laws apply on or off school grounds, if there is proof that the fight began at school. You will be in trouble with the school, and the police as well. <img> Avoid bringing anything to school that even looks like a weapon. When weapons are involved, violence escalates immediately and can quickly get of control. Every year, at least 7 percent of American high school students are threatened or injured by another student carrying a weapon. Because of this, laws about guns and other weapons have become increasingly strict over the years.\nFederal law requires public schools to expel any student who brings a firearm to school for at least one year.\nMore than half the students who are expelled in the US each year were expelled for bringing a weapon to school. <img> Think about witnesses. Be sure to have some of your friends around to back up your side of the story. Never get drawn into a fight if the only witnesses are your opponent's friends.\nAvoid places where a teacher is likely to see you.\nAppoint a lookout to let you know if someone is coming. <img> ", "Be aware of your surroundings. You can avoid a lot of trouble if you only hang out with your friends in open, well lit areas where plenty of people are likely to walk by. Notice which places bullies or gangs are most likely to hang out – like a certain park, bathroom, or parking lot – so you can avoid them.\nAvoid taking shortcut through dark or isolated areas, especially by yourself.\nBe sure your parents and friends know your usual schedule, so if you are attacked someone will notice that you aren't where you're supposed to be.\nDon't be distracted by your phone if you are walking alone, and don't wear headphones. Be alert to all the sights and sounds around you. <img> Avoid dangerous situations. In one study, nearly 20 percent of students reported being bullied at school. Avoiding trouble doesn't mean you are weak, it just means you are smart. Avoiding a fight in the first place is the best way to avoid getting into trouble.\nTry to avoid being in situations where you will be alone with a bully – walk home with a friend, and eat lunch with a group.\nDon't take the bait. Sometimes if you ignore a bully, they will get bored and leave you alone.\nIt's usually best to speak up and answer a bully. If a bully thinks you are weak, he or she will try to take advantage of it by being even more aggressive. <img> Try to calm down your opponent. If someone is threatening you with violence, they are probably already on edge and pumped full of adrenaline. Fighting back might make them even angrier, which will make the situation even worse. \nLearn to control your own temper, so you won't lose control when you feel threatened.\nIf you find yourself alone with a violent person, sometimes it helps to just agree with them until they calm down. You don't have to actually agree with them – just tell them what they want to hear.\nIf someone is taunting you, distract them by saying something like, “Is that the bell?” or “I think that was my phone.” Then calmly walk away.\nIf a bully is being really persistent and won't let you leave, tell them you will meet them after school. You don't need to actually fight them, you are just trying to buy yourself some time. <img> Give them what they want. In some situations, it's best to just hand over your homework or lunch money to avoid being hurt. Experts almost always recommend giving a mugger your wallet right away, to avoid a violent situation.\nTell your teacher or a someone in the office what happened, so they know you actually did your homework.\nTell a parent or guardian when this happens, so they can make sure it doesn't happen again. <img> ", "Have a failsafe response ready. To stay out of trouble, plan in advance how you will handle a confrontation if it happens. When a bully is screaming at you, you're less likely to freeze up and go blank if you already know exactly what you are going to say.\nInterrupt them. Say something like, “Sorry, I need to make a phone call,” and walk away before they can stop you.\nOffer to continue the conversation after class – they may have forgotten you and moved on to something else by then.\nIf you know you can pull it off, smile and act amused. The last thing a bully wants is to be embarrassed in front of his friends. <img> Take control of the conversation. You can avoid trouble at school if you learn to take charge of a dangerous situation before it gets out of control. You may be able to calm your opponent down if you can figure out their underlying motive for harassing you. In some cases, you may be able to find another way to work things out that doesn't involve fighting.\nEvery time the bully asks a question, reply by asking her to explain herself. (“Why do you believe that?” or “What makes you think I did that?”)\nBe careful not to lose your temper or come across as sarcastic, as this will only make them angrier. <img> Talk to someone. If you're being bullied, you are not alone. Talk to your friends about the problem, and get their advice. You'll probably find that many of them have had to deal with the same thing in the past. You can avoid getting into trouble at school by asking them what they did to resolve the situation.\nOne out of every 5 high school students in the US reported being bullied at school in 2013, and 1 in every 6 has been bullied online.\nFive percent of US students missed a day or more of school because they did not feel safe from a bully. <img> Report them. In instances where bullying may lead to physical harm, always tell a parent or a teacher. Bullying is a serious problem – there have been numerous occasions where bullying has resulted in severe injury and even death. You can avoid getting into trouble if the school knows you aren't the one causing the problem.\nAllowing a bully to get away with it will just encourage them to become more violent.\nParents and teachers will be able to come up with a plan to fix the problem without letting the bully know that you are the one who told on them. <img> ", "Know how to get to cover. Cover can be anything that offers you momentary safety. Be aware of your surroundings, and don't allow yourself to be boxed into a corner.\nCover can be distance – if you can remove yourself from the situation, your attacker can't get to you. Plan your escape route in advance.\nCover can also be a physical barrier, like getting to a bathroom or supply closet and locking your attacker out. <img> Learn basic self defense moves. The best way to avoid getting into trouble is to remove yourself from a fight before it happens. But if you are attacked by a violent person and can't get away, you will need to defend yourself as best you can. You can't really learn these moves without practicing them, so sign up for self defense classes before trying them in person.\nMake a fist and swing upward, hitting your opponent's nose squarely with the heel of your hand. The upward movement carries a lot of force, and is easier to pull off than a boxing-style punch.\nKick your attacker's knee by using your foot in a horizontal stomping motion. Be sure to take aim first, and strike suddenly before they expect it.\nUse the instep of your foot or your knee with as much force as possible to connect with your opponent's groin with an swift, upward motion.\nAlternate your strikes between face and body – when your opponent goes to protect one vulnerable area, they will leave another area open to attack. <img> Avoid being overconfident. Even if you have been taking self defense classes and doing well, never assume you will win the fight. There are too many things that can go wrong, and you can never predict the outcome. If you let the situation get out of control, you are far more likely to get caught and get into trouble. \nIf you underestimate your opponent he or she may catch you off-guard, and hurt you.\nYou are far more likely to get caught if you are reckless – you won't pay enough attention to your surroundings and witnesses. <img> " ]

[ "Volunteer. Volunteering with a local charity is a great way to improve the world around you. You'll be able to do the most direct good and see the impact on the people that you help. If you have a practical skill or can learn one, or evening volunteering at the Humane Society in your local neighborhood. using that skill will offer the most good (skills like construction or medicine are good examples).\nTutor disadvantaged kids\nWork at a local soup kitchen\nWork with a charity like Habitat for Humanity. <img> Reduce your impact. Another way to really make the world a better place is to reduce the negative impact you have on the world around you. Being good stewards of the world has a significant and positive impact on your environment and helps to preserve the planet for the next generation.\nBe consistent about recycling.\nReduce the waste you produce and compost.\nUse less paper\n\nConserve water and grow some of your own food.\nIf you really want to help your local environment, buy and install solar panels for your home and switch to public transit, a bike, or an electric vehicle.\nIncrease positive impacts. Notice how your happiness and well-being are interconnected with other people and the natural environment. Learn how you can leave a legacy of sustainable happiness. <img> Be civically engaged. Exercise your right to vote. Bad politicians and policies can have an incredibly negative impact on your community and your environment. By not voting and letting your voice be heard, you are allowing opportunity for bad policy to rule. Be engaged in your city, states, and country by voting and talking with the politicians you support, as well as educating others on important issues.\nIn America, for example, only about 50% to 60% of eligible voters actually vote during the presidential election. And that number tumbles to about 35% to 40% in midterm elections. Imagine the changes people might enact if 90% of people voted during presidential elections and 60% of people voted during midterms! <img> Make a statement with what you buy. With companies, your money talks....so shout as loud as you can! Don't buy products that harm animals or from companies that use abusive tactics with their animals. Whenever you can, buy local products that support the people around you and your local economy. When a company makes poor choices that negatively affect people, stop buying their products.\nAlways, always feel free to contact companies to let them know what you're doing and why! Some, not all, businesses actually care about what their customers want. They'll never know how to change if people don't tell them. <img> Take pride in where you live. Take care of and take pride in the area where you live. This preserves the area not just for you but for everyone else in your community. If you have the opportunity to help, take it because not everyone will have the chance. You should also find ways to improve the environment where you live. Here are just a few ideas:\nCombine good citizenship and environmental cleanup by volunteering with your city to plant trees, maintain sidewalks, and keep green spaces green.\nNever litter when you're out and about — always try to find a proper trash can or recycling bin for your trash! Clean up trash that you do find, even if someone else dropped it. <img> ", "Donate to the right charities. If you want to help people across the world, it's important to give to charities that provide the right kind of help and provide it where it will do the most good. Charities which create sustainable good in areas where it is needed are the best and will do the most good.\nYou don't necessarily have to donate money. Some nonprofits accept educational materials, clothing, or other supplies. Call or email to ask what they need. Some really want awareness most of all, so you can help by spreading the word, in addition to any physical donations you can make.\nVolunteer or be part of fundraising efforts for charities that do good abroad. Run a half marathon or other fundraiser to raise funds for an international charity of your choice. Look for programs that allow you to fly out and volunteer in person. Consider other options, like providing input, advice, or tutoring to small nonprofits and organizations over the web. <img> Buy fair trade. Fair trade certified products are guaranteed to have been produced under humane conditions for worker, with that worker being paid a fair wage, and produced under sustainable conditions. By buying these products as much as possible, you show companies that you think these practices are worth a few extra pennies and encourage other companies to invest in these practices as well.\nFair Trade items will almost always be labeled as such. If you're unsure, try to at least avoid items that are often unethically sourced. Coffee, bananas, cocoa, many tropical fruits, wine (mainly from California), clothing items (mainly from China, Bangladesh, and SE Asia) and jewelry are often unethically sourced. <img> Invest your money. Sometimes, all a third world or disadvantaged community needs is a chance for their own economy to flourish. One way you can help these people help themselves is by providing small business loans. This means that you should get your money back and the small business will get what it needs to contribute to that economy and community. An easy way to get in to this is through Kiva.org, which provides small business loans to people in disadvantaged areas.\nThis is an especially good way to help women and other vulnerable groups to support themselves. <img> Protect the environment. Do things that help the environment globally. A great way to do this is to reduce your reliance on fossil fuels and other fuel sources that have a negative impact on the environment. You can do this by using public transit, a bicycle, or an electric vehicle to get around. You can also use solar power to heat your home, instead of things like natural gas (which put a strain on the environment). Eating local food and using local products will also cut down on global fossil fuel usage.\n\nConserve as much energy as you can. Producing energy is very taxing on the planet, often requiring the burning of gases or the production of nuclear energy. Any energy you don't use can then be used for more important things and less power will need to be produced overall. Turn off lights in rooms that you're not in, take colder showers, switch to energy efficient light bulbs, turn off your computer when you're not using it, etc. There are lots of ways to conserve power! <img> Reduce waste. Don't eat more than you need to, don't buy a bunch of junk that you don't need, and avoid buying new clothes every year. Buying used clothing can help reduce waste that is created. Eating a healthy, balanced, minimal diet will also reduce waste. If you do have leftover food, compost it. You want to reduce the waste you produce before our planet ends up looking like a still shot from Wall*E!\n\nCompost your excess organic waste. Get or build a large bin that can be left outdoors, as well as a small one that can go in your home. Collect all of the food scraps that are leftover from eating and preparing your meals, as well as things like yard waste, and deposit these items in your outdoor bin. Use a pitchfork or rake to turn and mix the compost regularly. You will also need to add soil on occasion. One it has turned into a homogeneous mixture, it's ready to be spread in your green spaces.\n\nRecycle more and correctly. Most cities will come and collect your recycling along with your garbage, though they'll be kept in separate bins. Recyclable items vary by city, but generally most plastic jugs, metal cans, and paper are all recyclable. <img> Be an animal advocate. As the dominant life form on this planet, it is our responsibility to protect the creatures that cannot protect themselves. Because of the way we currently live, many animals suffer and are even going extinct! If you want to improve conditions for animals, there are many ways you can help.\nEncourage and vote for legislation that protects animals.\nOnly buy products that do not contribute to animal abuse.\nDonate to charities which help animals, such as the Humane Society, The Marine Mammal Center, or the Performing Animal Welfare Society. <img> Donate feminine hygiene products. In many disadvantaged countries, like many regions in India and Africa, women do not have access to sanitary feminine hygiene products. This leads to humiliation and isolation at best, and at worst discomfort and even life-threatening infections. By donating items and money to charities that work to solve this problem, you'll be keeping women healthy and help them to do things like attend school and work so that they get the opportunity to better their own lives.\nOne such charity is Days for Girls. <img> ", "Be kind. A lot of the time we can get so caught up in working to improve the globe as a whole that we forget there are lots of things that we can do every day at home that have a positive impact too. One of the best things you can do easily and every day is to treat others how you want to be treated. Do something nice for someone as often as you can. This can be small things like making someone a birthday present, or big things like driving someone around until they get their car fixed. When we work together, everything runs more smoothly and we're better able to further invest those gains in benefiting the rest of the globe. <img> Set a good example. Set a good example for your friends and family members, and educate them on the issues so that they can make good decisions too. Help them to understand why these things are important, so that they're also motivated to change their lives. By changing a few minds you can double, triple, or even more greatly increase your positive impact on the world. <img> Get a job. Almost any job that you get can have a positive impact on your community. You'll be providing a service to people who want it and adding to the economy in your immediate area, improving the lot of everyone around you. It will also give you money that you can use to donate to charity or fund small business loans! <img> Be positive. When we're surrounded by people who are negative and mean, it makes us sad and pessimistic, making it much harder to get through the other difficulties in life. Let your attitude show everyone that a smile and hopeful attitude can really improve the day of everyone around you. By finding the upsides in tough situations and working hard to fix problems, you can positively impact the people you come into contact with. <img> Be helpful to everyone. We have lots of opportunities to be nice and helpful to other people every day. Many times we don't take the opportunity because we think we're too busy or someone else will help. If you want to make the world around you better, just do the right thing and help, instead of thinking that it's someone else's problem.\nFor example, if someone is carrying groceries to their car and they drop a bag, help them by picking up the groceries and loading them back into the bag. The simple things like that are very much appreciated by anyone! <img> ", "Help the homeless. The homeless are a vulnerable group that are often misunderstood. By helping the homeless, both locally and across the world, you'll be improving people's lives and helping to create more sustainable and safe cities. <img> Help women. Women have traditionally been another vulnerable group. Though conditions have improved in many places, even in the most feminist countries you will still see unequal pay and disproportionate abuse. Do what you can to help women not just in the obvious places, like third world countries, but also closer to home.

[ "Script manifesting is writing down what you want in life. This might be as simple as writing about something you want to buy or something you want to attract to you, like love. Additionally, you can also use script manifesting to accomplish a goal or to create your dream life.\nSome people write out an entire story about what they want their life to be like in the future.\nOthers like to write out affirmations.\nYou could also write about something you want, like a new car or a partner. <img> Writing a script is one way to use the Law of Attraction (LOA). According to the LOA, you can create the life you want by thinking positively and visualizing what you want. It’s kind of like speaking things into existence, and people who practice it often believe it works both ways. You can draw positive or negative experiences, depending on what you tell yourself.\nAs an example, you’ll accomplish a lot more at work or school if you tell yourself, “I am capable” than if you say, “This is too hard.”\nWhen practicing the LOA, it’s important to remember that you aren’t to blame for traumatic events, harm inflicted by others, or difficult circumstances. It’s absolutely not your fault if something bad happens to you. <img> Scripting is an alternative to traditional visualization. With manifesting, you typically visualize yourself in the future, living your ideal life. You might be working at your dream job, enjoying a lovely home, or driving a new car. For some people, visualization is really hard. Fortunately, script manifesting allows you to put your thoughts on paper instead. <img> ", "Start from a place of gratitude and positivity. Manifesting only works if you approach it with a grateful heart. Focusing on how much you need something can accidentally send a message to the universe that you’re lacking. It’s easy to practice gratitude. All you need to do is be thankful for what you have.\nYou might be grateful for beautiful weather, a comfortable home, and love from your pet.\nYou you could keep a gratitude journal.\tExpert Answer\t\t\t\t\t\tQ\t\t\t\tWhat is the secret to manifesting?\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\tJennifer McVey, Cht\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tSpiritual Director\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tJennifer McVey is a Spiritualist, Seer, and the Spiritual Director of Spiritual Answers and Solutions. With more than 22 years of experience, she specializes in manifesting, ghosts and spirit attachments, hypnotherapy, channeling, and spiritually based life coaching. Jennifer has also published 13 Affirmation Image and six Word Search Puzzle books in spirituality and self-help and has produced over 600 audio sessions.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tEXPERT ADVICE\t\t\t\t\t\t\tAnswer from Jennifer McVey, Cht:\t\t\tThe secret in manifesting itself is that wording is a shift that raises our vibration and consciousness and helps us realize that we are powerful creators. We are spirits who are capable of creating our own lives. Everyone is manifesting all of the time, but now you're being more intentional about it. <img> Use present tense. The trickiest part of script manifesting is remembering that the future is now. When you script manifest, you act like you already have what you want. So, write like your dream is happening to you right now.\nYou’d write, “I’m on my vacation to Hawaii soaking up the sun on the beach,” not “I’m going to vacation in Hawaii this summer.” <img> Write about what it’s like to have what you want. Picture yourself sometime in the future with the life you want. Maybe you’re head-over-heels in love, or perhaps you finally have your dream job. You could be holding the keys to your brand new car, or relaxing in your cozy new house. Jot down a a few sentences describing what your perfect future looks like.\nIt’s totally up to you how much you write. You might write a couple of sentences about a car you want, or you might write several pages about how you want to spend your ideal day. There are no wrong answers.\nYou may prefer to just write an affirmation or one word that represents what you want. Do what works best for you. This is your manifestation practice. <img> Include specific details using your 5 senses. The more detailed your script, the more likely it will come true. When you write about the specifics, it helps you really focus on what you want so you can go after it. In addition to a visual description, use your imagination to describe the textures, scents, sounds, and tastes you’ll experience when you achieve your goal. You could write:\n“My car smells like new leather and has warming seats. I listen to the purr of the engine as I cruise around the city.”\n“Alex and I are on a date in my favorite Italian restaurant. The live band is playing a romantic song while Alex tells me about his day. We both ordered the spaghetti, and I can’t help but think of the date scene in Lady and the Tramp.” <img> Focus only on what you want–not on what you want to avoid. It’s really easy to slip into a list of what you don’t want. However, that comes from a place of negativity, so it can really mess up your manifestation efforts. Remember to stick to positive statements only.\nSteer clear of things like, “I don’t want a used car,” “I only want to go to my top choices for school,” or “I don’t want a promotion if it doesn’t come with a raise.” <img> Try the 3-6-9 method to attract a specific item or person. With the 3-6-9 method, you write down what you want on a slip of paper. Usually, you’ll just write one word to represent what you want, such as “car” or your crush’s name. Write 3 scripts in the morning, 6 scripts in the afternoon, and 9 scripts in the evening.\nIf you want to take it one step forward, sleep with your scripts under your pillow. <img> ", "Imagine what success would feel like. Emotions increase your vibrations and help you add more energy to your manifestation scripts. As you increase your energy, you can improve your ability to manifest what you desire. As you write your scripts, really focus on how getting what you want will make you feel.\nYou might feel warm and fuzzy when you think about going out with your crush, or you could feel excited and adventurous when you climb behind the wheel of your new car. <img> Believe your script is true. When you’re manifesting, you have to believe that you deserve what you want and that you’ll get it. Do your best to stay positive and believe that you can achieve what you want. Try re-reading your script and using it as motivation to keep working toward what you want.\nIt’s helpful to make your script believable. For instance, you might use script manifesting to attract a promotion at your job, which is believable. On the other hand it’d be less believable that you could become the leader of a country using script manifesting.\nRemember that actions are super important. Script manifesting isn’t like wishing for something—it’s a tool to help you pursue what you want. <img> Keep your scripts totally positive. Any kind of negative language will interfere with your manifestation. Similarly, using limiting words like “maybe,” “hopefully,” or “I guess” will undermine your efforts. Always write your scripts from a place of positivity, gratitude, and abundance.\nInstead of “I guess I want a new car,” write “I love my new car!”\nRather than “Hopefully Drake will ask me out,” write “Drake asked me out, and I said ‘yes.’” <img> Take action toward your goal or dream. Script manifesting isn't like a genie in a bottle—what you write down won't just appear. You have to work toward what you want. Identify the first few steps you need to take to get what you want. Then, start working on the first step.\nIf you want a promotion, you might talk to your boss or put in your application for an open position.\nIf you’re hoping your crush will chat with you, you might post a cute snap with a message about being single or you could go to an event you know they’re attending.\nIf you want a new car, you might start shopping around or start saving money for a down payment. <img> ", "Attract your crush. “My crush and I are on a romantic date on the beach. We spread my white beach blanket down on the sand. We brought a full picnic basket with sweet watermelon and grapes, a variety of cheeses, and summer sausage. For dessert, we have cupcakes. The salty sea air is filling my nose, and I’m so excited to finally be here.” <img> Get your dream job. “I started my new job today, and I’m so happy! I get to spend my day writing, and all my coworkers are friendly. I’m playing jazz music on a Bluetooth speaker to create a nice ambiance and sipping on tea while I write.” <img> Obtain something you want, like a car. “I just bought a shiny yellow Volkswagen Beetle with comfortable grey seats. The new car smell greets me when I open the door. The Bluetooth lets me play all my favorite songs as I cruise around the neighborhood. I hung a rearview mirror ornament that looks like a flower so I remember to be grateful for my new car.” <img> Attract money. “I have all the money I need to pay for what I want. My bank account is thriving, and I always have enough. I can buy anything I want and am generous with my friends. My life is full of abundance.” <img> Get your dream house. “My new house is a two-story bungalow with a wide front porch, complete with a swing. It has large windows so the rooms are full of sunlight. The floors are hardwood, and the walls are all painted lovely colors. I’ve filled the house with eclectic furniture that makes me feel cozy.” <img> " ]

[ "Use a scarf or headband to hide unwanted bangs. If your stylist gave you bangs or fringe in the front that you don’t like, use a scarf or headband to tuck them away until they grow in. When you’re ready to get the rest of your hair cut shorter, let your stylist know that you want the bangs to be blended in with the rest of your hair.\nSlick back bangs with hair gel. If you don't always want to wear a scarf or headband, apply hair gel to the bangs and push them back into your desired style. This works well with ponytails, buns, or short hairstyles. <img> Get out your curling iron to hide unevenness. If you find yourself stuck with an asymmetrical haircut that you didn’t ask for, create some waves in your hair with a curling iron to disguise the unevenness. The straighter your hair is, the more the uneven strands will stand out.\nUse a volumizing or lifting serum or spray to hold your curls in place. <img> Use a flat iron for hair that’s too short. For a haircut that’s just a bit too short for your liking, you can add the appearance of length by removing any natural waves in your hair with a flat-iron. The smoother your hair is, the longer it will look.\nApply a heat protectant to your hair before straightening it, and a smoothing serum afterward to keep any waves from forming. <img> Hide bad layers with clips, hats, or a bun. Clips and other accessories like headbands come in handy if you’re trying to disguise bad layers as well. Pull the pieces that you want hidden underneath other hair, and secure them with a bobby pin or headband. Or, tuck all of your hair under a hat to hide layers entirely.\nTo make a bun, apply a smoothing serum to your hair and pull it back into a ponytail. Wrap your hair around the ponytail in a circle to create a bun, and fasten the bun together with a scrunchie. Use smoothing serum and bobby pins to fasten fly-away pieces in place. <img> Use clips to hide out-of-place pieces. While you’re waiting for a too-short cut to grow out, try disguising your cut with clips or other cute barrettes. Strategically secure sections that you want to hide underneath other sections of hair.\nTake this idea further by twisting some pieces of hair away from your face and secure them with clips in the front or on the sides. Finish off the look with a touch of hairspray to hold it. <img> Try clip-in extensions for hair that’s way too short. If your hair got cut so short that you are upset about the idea of waiting to let it grow, find some hair extensions at a beauty supply store that match your hair color and texture. Bring them into your stylist, and have them cut the extensions so that they blend in with your hair.\nEach time you use your extensions, tease your hair 1 inch (2.5 cm) below where you’re going to clip them in and use some hairspray to get them to stay in place. <img> Consider a new color or highlights to pull your look together. If you want to grow your hair out until the cut can be fixed, another good option is to color or highlight your hair. This will help draw attention away from the parts of the cut you don’t like.\nSee your stylist, or a new stylist, about color options that would look good on you. <img> ", "Speak up to your stylist during the haircut. The best way to help a bad haircut is to let your stylist know the moment they’re doing something you feel uncomfortable with. A good stylist will listen to your concerns and ask more questions about what you want instead of what they’re starting to do.\nPolitely say something like, “I don't think I want all those layers. Can you please soften them so they’re not so noticeable?”\nDon’t be afraid of hurting your stylist’s feelings, especially if you feel you clearly expressed what you wanted.\nTry giving a more detailed explanation including how much length to take off and pointing to places where you want layers or fades. <img> Give your hair a week to adjust. Hair can look unusual right after a haircut simply because the cuticles have been exposed and they needs time to settle. The look you were going for may actually start to appear after 1-3 shampoos during the week.\nTry to avoid asking for opinions from your friends or partner right away if you’re not sure you like your haircut. Allow your hair, and yourself, time to calm down before deciding to ask others what they think.\nAfter a week, if your haircut is still unsatisfactory to you, you can take more steps toward getting it fixed. <img> Call the salon and ask to have your hair fixed for free. If you expressed your unhappiness at the time of your cut, either during the cut or afterward, you can call the salon and explain that you can’t keep your hair the way that it is. Tell them that you tried adjusting to it, but it’s not at all what you wanted.\nSay, “I don’t think the stylist really understood what I wanted. I can explain how I want it to look if someone can fix it free of charge.” Try to be as specific as possible about what you want done differently.\nSeeing the same stylist can be beneficial because they know your hair and have recent experience with it. You may also want to try a new stylist (or even visiting a new salon) to see if someone else can give you a haircut more in line with what you are expecting. <img> Explain exactly how you feel about your haircut. When you go back to the salon, tell the stylist both what you like and what you don’t like about your haircut. It can be tempting to focus on only the bad, but doing this can cause the stylist to also change some things you actually like about the cut if you’re not clear about what you like.\nSay, “The overall length is good, but it looks so flat. Can we shape it more to add more bounce to it?” <img> Be clear with your stylist about what needs to be fixed. If your problem with your hair is that the layers look too clumpy, explain this to your stylist. Say, “I was hoping for lighter, more subtle layers. Can you thin them out a bit?”\nIf your hair looks like there’s too much hair in the back to match the front, ask your stylist for “internal thinning.” This will take some of the thickness out from the inside without removing length and help the front and back match better. <img> Ask for a shorter cut for layers that are too thin. If the stylist went overboard on your layers and they look too thin and straggly at the bottom, you’ll need to explain this to the stylist. Tell them you’d like your layers evened out and blended with the rest of your hair.\nA haircut that’s already too short overall has only 1 option – to let it grow back. Fortunately, there are easy ways you can hide what you don’t like in a too-short haircut. <img> ", "Shop for a stylist by asking for recommendations. A good way to find a trusted stylist is to ask family and friends for recommendations. You should avoid just walking into a salon and seeing the first person who’s available; that stylist may not have any appointments because they’re either not very good or they’re still very inexperienced.\nIf a friend, family member, or coworker recently had their hair done in a way that you love, ask them who they went to. They may even get a referral discount for sending you to a certain salon.\nIf you can't find anybody to give you recommendations, look at reviews online for local salons. <img> Have a consultation with the stylist before they get started. If you’re unhappy with your current haircut, or are seeing a stylist for the first time, book a consultation appointment prior to your haircut. This can be right before the haircut time, and gives you time to discuss with your stylist either why you’re unhappy with your haircut or what you’re looking for in a new haircut.\nThe stylist will be able to tell you about cuts that look best with your hair type and facial features, and what you can expect about styling commitments based on the type of cut that you want. <img> Bring a magazine or internet picture with you. The best way to avoid miscommunication with your stylist about what you want is to provide a visual of the cut you’re looking for. Search beauty magazines or online for haircuts that you like, and choose your favorite to bring to the salon.\nA good stylist will tell you based on the picture how the cut may look different on you than it does on the person in the picture, based on facial features and hair types.\nHaving this conversation will help to avoid any surprises if the cut doesn’t look exactly the same on you as it did on the person in the picture. <img> Communicate with your stylist about how you normally wear your hair. If you don’t normally put a lot of time and effort into styling, tell your stylist this so that they don’t give you a cut that requires a lot of styling to look good. Based on your description or picture, the stylist can tell you if that exact cut is a good idea for you, or if a slight variation would be better.\nIf styling time and effort isn’t an issue for you, you have more options for the cut you want.

[ "Set a 36-hour block to fast. A quick way to enter ketosis is burning off all the glucose in your body in a short time. A 2-day fast is an effective way to do this. Choose a time when you don’t have any work or social commitments, like a long weekend when you have no events to attend. That way, you can fast without worrying about lacking energy for events.\nAlways consult your doctor before trying to fast. This could be risky for some people, especially if you have any underlying health problems.\nSome people who should avoid fasting are pregnant women or women trying to become pregnant, people with a history of eating disorders, people at risk of hypoglycemia, and people with physically-demanding jobs that require a lot of calories. <img> Cut back on your eating for 2-3 days leading up to the fast. Starting a fast cold-turkey can shock your body and lead to excessive fatigue, hunger, and cravings. This makes maintaining the fast very difficult. Ease into it for 2-3 days before you start. On the first day, cut out all your usual snacks in between meals. On the second and third days, only eat 2 meals instead of 3. This gradually introduces your body to fasting.\nFor normal fasting, filling up on carbs in the days leading up to it is common advice. However, for a keto diet, you want to minimize carbs. For the days leading to your fast, also gradually cut out carbs so your body burns off glucose faster. <img> Eliminate your sugar consumption the day before your fast. Sugars give you a quick energy spike, followed by a crash. During a fast, this crash could drain your energy and make your cravings hard to manage. Cut out all added sugars on the day before your fast starts. Don’t have any desserts or sweetened drinks.\nCutting out sugars is also important for ketosis because you need to decrease your body’s glucose levels. <img> Drink at least 2 L (68 fl oz) of water daily to stay hydrated. You might think that you can't consume anything during a fast, but you can still drink sugarless fluids. Enjoy drinks like water, unsweetened tea, seltzer, or black coffee. However, skip drinks with added sweeteners.\nBlack coffee can help suppress your food cravings. Don’t add any milk or sugar or you’ll ruin the fast.\nGreen tea may also help suppress your appetite.\nYou may need more fluids, especially if you're active. Talk to your doctor to find out how much you need to drink daily. <img> Exercise lightly to burn off your body’s glucose. Exercising also helps your body enter ketosis because your body burns off glucose for energy. Burning glucose, combined with your fast, can push your body into ketosis quicker than normal.\nStick with lighter aerobic exercises like jogging or walking. You won’t have enough energy for intense workouts.\nDon’t do any weight lifting exercises during a fast. This is very dangerous because you’re at risk of dropping the weights while you’re weak.\nIf you feel nauseous or lightheaded while exercising, stop right away. Your body might not have enough energy to exercise. <img> Follow a keto diet when your fast is done. While fasting can get your body into ketosis quickly, you have to maintain it with a strict diet. Follow-up your fast by immediately starting a strict keto diet. Focus on eating healthy fats and cutting out most carbohydrate sources. This keeps your body in its keto state so you don't have to fast again. <img> ", "Get 60% of your calories from healthy fats. The keto diet is a high-fat, low-carb plan that prevents glucose from building up in your body. Design meals around getting healthy, monounsaturated fats to enter and maintain ketosis. This won't trigger ketosis as quickly as a fast, but it can still help you enter the fat-burning state within a few days.\nGood fat sources are fish and shellfish, avocados, eggs, chicken and other meats, nuts, cheese, and Greek yogurt. You might also try lard, chicken fat, duck fat, or organic cocoa butter.\nButter and oils typically have 0 net carbs. Try adding a lot of vegetable or olive oil to your meals to increase your healthy fat intake. You can also use MCT oil, cold-pressed coconut oil, palm fruit oil, flax seed oil, macadamia oil, and avocado oil. For an extra boost, some keto followers add oil or butter to their coffee. <img> Keep your carbohydrate intake below 50 grams per day. The main staple of the keto diet is getting less than 10% of your daily calories from carbs. Cut out most breads (white and whole grain), pastas, starchy vegetables, and high-carb fruits like apples, oranges, and bananas. Keep track of any carbs you do eat so you don’t go over the daily limit.\nYou are allowed to have leafy green vegetables, berries, coconut, tomatoes, and citrus fruits. You may also be able to incorporate cruciferous vegetables, like broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, or Brussels sprouts. Other options may include celery, zucchini, cucumber, leeks, or chives. Replace any high-carb foods with these instead.\nFlavor your foods with herbs so you get flavor without carbs.\nIt’s nearly impossible to cut out carbs entirely because most foods have some. Just track your consumption and keep it within 50 grams per day.\nSome extreme keto diets require less than 20 grams daily. This is extremely difficult for most people to maintain, but it will help trigger ketosis faster. <img> Consume less than 75 g of protein daily. Controlling your protein intake is also important for entering and maintaining ketosis. Get around 20-30% of your daily calories from protein, which usually amounts to about 75 grams in a normal diet. Keto-friendly protein sources are seafood, nuts, eggs, grass-fed beef, poultry, and organ meat.\nMost of the fat sources you can eat on a keto diet also contain protein, so look up the protein content of anything you eat. Control your portion sizes to maintain ketosis.\nThere are some diet and nutrition apps that can help you maintain ketosis. Type in any foods you want to eat and they will tell you the correct portions and whether or not something is keto-friendly. <img> Incorporate low-carb snacks to help manage your hunger. You can skip snacking if you're not hungry. However, including healthy snacks in your diet may help you stick to your goals. Choose snacks that are low in carbs or carb-free. Here are some great options for snacks:Bone broth\nBeef or turkey jerky\nHard-boiled eggs\nVeggies, with or without dressing\nAvocado with sliced lox (salmon)\nShirataki noodles\nA piece of dark chocolate Exercise regularly to burn off any remaining glucose. You can’t stop your body from producing all glucose, so you have to burn off any remaining glucose to stay in ketosis. Do some aerobic or resistance exercises at least 5 days per week to avoid glucose from building up in your system and taking you out of ketosis.\nAny physical activity, including aerobics and weight training, will burn glucose. Try doing a mixture to maintain good overall health.\nWork out a bit harder if you slipped up and had more carbs than you should have one day. Otherwise you could slip out of ketosis again.\nIn your first few weeks of ketosis, you’ll probably have low energy while you adjust to the diet. Do what you can, bur remember to rest so you don’t hurt yourself. <img> " ]

[ "Make sure you qualify for the House or Senate. To be a congressperson, you can either run for the House of Representatives or the Senate. There are certain basic qualifications you must meet for both, including age qualifications. Make sure you meet those before you attempt to run. \nTo run for the House of Representatives, you must be at least 25 years old. You must have been a United States citizen for at least seven years. You must also be a resident of the state and district you're representing at the time you file your petition.\nTo run for Senate, you must be at least 30 years old. You must have been a citizen for at least nine years. You must also live in the state you want to represent in the Senate. <img> Follow the right educational path. The majority of United States congresspeople have at least a bachelor's degree. Many others have higher degrees in fields like law and business. When exploring your career path, think about different routes you could take that would eventually lead to a career in politics. \nMany senators and congresspeople have degrees in business and law. It may be worth it to get a law degree (Commonly known as the Juris Doctor Degree) or MBA in addition to a bachelor's degree in business or pre-law. You can also try broader degrees, like political science, philosophy, and business, and then pursue a law degree. A few years of experience as a lawyer or businessperson may help with a political career. This is not required to run for Congress, however, it is very recommended to help you gain experience in the related field.\nHowever, not every congressperson pursues a business or law before politics. You can pursue a political career straight out of college. Think about pursuing a degree like a political science degree, or a degree in something like public policy or international relations, and launching your career from there. <img> Gain early experience. You want to get the proper skills for a career in politics. Things like leadership, public speaking, and fundraising are key. It can be hard to land a politically-related job right out of high school or college. However, there are many ways you can get early experience to help your resume down the road.\nVolunteer. Volunteering is easy to do and can help you gain much of the necessary experience to be a congressperson. You can, for example, volunteer for a local political party. Try to help out with things like fundraising or community organizing. You can also take on a leadership role in the organization.\nLook into working for local charities. Whether it's volunteering or taking a part time paid position, charity work can be great for a political resume. It usually involves things like fundraising and interacting with the public.\nSeek out internship experience while you're still in school. Experience interning for a local political party can look great on your resume. <img> Get involved in your local community. In politics, it's often who you know that matters when it comes to career success. Making small connections with your local community can pay off down the road. Also, community involvement helps teach you skills you can use later in your political career.\nGet involved with organizations that are personally meaningful to you. Every congressperson runs on a particular platform, and you will want to show early commitment to that platform.\nFor example, if religion is important to you, take a leadership position in your church. Join the vestry. If education is important to you, see if you can find a position on the local school board or PTA. <img> ", "Work in politics locally. Most successful Congresspeople started out serving their local community. Before attempting to run for a national office, look for ways to become a leader in your local political arena.\nYou can try taking on a leadership position in a local political party. For example, volunteer to become the treasurer for your local Democrat or Republican party.\nYou can also run for a local office. Requirements will vary from state-to-state, and between specific counties, so you'll have to check with a local courthouse. However, running for, say, the local city council could help you become established in politics.\nSimply volunteering is also key. Often, you can get your foot in the door with local politics just by being a loyal volunteer. During election seasons, for example, offer to help with fundraising or to make phone calls. <img> Pick a political party early on. Having party support can help you get elected. Most people elected to Congress are either Democrat or Republican, although you can also try for a third party position. Early on, decide which party to align with. Pick a party that lines up with your personal values and belief systems and that supports candidates with views similar to yours. Deciding on your party early on and sticking with it can help you become a congressperson.\nReview the policies of major political parties in the United States. Pay attention to how Democrats and Republicans tend to vote on big issues like healthcare, the environment, and education. See which side best represents your opinions and perspective.\nWhile most people in Congress are Democrat or Republican, you do not have to choose a major party if you don't agree with either platform. You can examine the views of alternative parties, such as the Green Party or the Libertarian Party. <img> Network with likeminded people. Politics is mostly about who you know, so networking is key. Make sure to reach out to people with similar view to yours if you want to get elected. Stay involved locally and always talk to everyone you can during social events.\nAttend things like rallies and fundraisers and talk to people in your community. You should also talk to people in positions of power, such as chairs of local grassroots organizations or branches of a political party. Get contact information, such as email, so you can get in touch down the road when you need support for your campaign.\nStaying involved in the local political circuit also helps you make connections. Maintaining longstanding leadership or volunteer positions in a local political party is a great way to secure the connections necessary to succeed. <img> Seek out entry-level political jobs. When you begin to feel more established, you may want to seek a job specifically related to politics. You will need to put all political experience, such as volunteer and leadership positions, on a resume and begin applying to positions that will help immerse you in the political world.\nLook for assistant positions, such as staff and legislative assistants. You will help with specific political committees and campaigns. While a lot of your work is basic administrative work, you will also have to talk to people like lobbyists and members of Congress. This can help you make connections and get a feel for the political world.\nTry to work for a congressperson as a chief of staff. You will essentially be an assistant to an actual member of congress. You may have to work other positions for years before securing this one, but it's an invaluable way to gain firsthand political experience. <img> ", "Review requirements in your state. Every state has different requirements regarding how to get on the ballot to run for Congress. Some states require a fee, others require a set number of signatures, and some states require both. Review your state's government website carefully to make sure you know how to get on the ballot. <img> Register with the correct party. Different states have different ways of registering with a certain political party. In some states, you may register when you sign up to vote. You will have to visit your state's government website or visit a local courthouse to learn precise requirements in your state. It's important to register with the right party, because party support is vital for a successful campaign.\nYou have to register with the right party no later than the first business day of January of an election year. Keep this in mind to make sure you register in time. <img> Collect signatures. If your state requires you to select signatures, do so. The amount of signatures you need to get on the ballot varies by state. In Florida, for example, you need at least 112,174 to get on the ballot for the House of Representatives.\nWhen collecting signatures, this is a time to return to your network. Talk to people you worked with locally and past contacts from jobs. Remember, people will not sign your petition unless they want you on the ballot.\nHave your local party support you. If you're, say, running as a Democrat, have members of your local Democratic party volunteer to collect signatures for you.\nBegin forming a group of volunteers, contacting people you know. You should also send out mass e-mails to members of your party, outlining your platforms and idea. Ask for them to sign your petition and seek signatures from others. <img> Pay a registration fee. Some states require you to pay a registration fee in addition to or instead of signatures. If you need to pay a registration fee, make sure you pay it before the deadline. Fees can be very expensive. In South Carolina, for example, the filing fee to run for Senate is $10,440. You may have to take donations.\nIf donations are necessary, you should return to your base. You can ask local political parties to help raise money for you. You can also set up something like a GoFundMe page to raise the money. <img> Fill out the necessary forms. Paperwork is part of the process of running for Congress. Forms can be found on your state government's website. First, you need to fill out an Affidavit or Certificate of Candidacy, which is a form verifying you meet the basic qualifications to run. As you proceed with your campaign, there will be other forms.\nA Statement of Organization Form must be submitted after you've earned a certain amount of money via contributions, usually $2,000, or 10 days after becoming a candidate. This form usually requires basic information, such as your name, e-mail, and so on.\nAs your campaign goes on, you need to fill out the Campaign Finance Disclosure form. This form highlights how you're spending money on your campaign. <img> ", "Hire a solid staff. To start off, you want the right staff. Hire likeminded, passionate people with experience to help you get into Congress. You will need to fill three basic positions: a fundraiser, a treasurer, and a campaign manager.\nA treasurer manages campaign finances. You should hire a professional who has experience handling and tracking money. A professional accountant is your best option, especially for a large campaign.\nA fundraiser is responsible for raising money for your campaign. They must also make sure you are able to fundraise effectively at events and focus on how to best present yourself to the people to gain donations. Pick someone who knows you well for this position. In this case, it's okay to hire someone like a family member or spouse.\nThe campaign manager runs your campaign alongside you. While you are busy with public appearances and fundraising, your campaign manager handles campaign problems and looks for opportunities. Hire a campaign manager with a vast amount of political experience and whose vision aligns with yours. <img> Find a niche. You want to stand out from other candidates while you run. It's important to find a nice in your state or community. Ask yourself what's missing and how you can fill that role.\nFor example, if you're running in a state facing economic turmoil, try to appeal to the working class. Offer concrete ways to create more jobs and protect worker's rights. <img> Fundraise effectively. Campaigns need money to run effectively. Name recognition requires financing things like commercials and other advertisements, all of which cost money. Learning effective fundraising is vital to becoming a congressperson.\nFocus on the issues before asking for money. At charity events or fundraisers, people who attend already respect and support you. Talk to them about your plans to make the country a better place, reminding them why you're their candidate. Only ask for money after making your campaign plans clear.\nEncourage your campaign fundraiser to get as many volunteers to fundraise as possible. A strong group of volunteers making phone calls asking for donations can help you raise the money necessary to win. <img> Communicate your platform via a variety of outlets. You want to make sure voters know who they're electing and why. Make sure you set up a variety of platforms where voters can read up on you. You should run ads on the radio and television, and make sure you have a solid online presence. A website and social media pages are important.\nMake sure you have a website that's easy to read. If it's within your budget, it's worth it to hire staff to build your web presence. You should also be on social media. Having things like Facebook and Twitter can help your campaign grow. You can communicate about your platform with voters in a more direct manner.\nYou should also allocate some of your budget to signs and banners. Name recognition also makes a big difference in a campaign, so make sure your supporters have things like signs, bumper stickers, and banners out supporting your candidacy. <img> Make speeches. You should make a variety of speeches throughout your campaign. Speak at places where you're likely to find supporters and make sure you cater your speeches to a specific audience. Your campaign manager should assist you in scheduling and writing your speeches.\nKnow the issues that matter to the group in question. If you're speaking to teachers, for example, talk about issues related to education, such as funding for public schools.\nIf you're going into a debate, prepare carefully. Know your opponent's stances in depth and be prepared to defend your positions as necessary. <img> Accept setbacks. You may not win on your first run for Congress, especially if you're just getting into the political game. However, accept this with stride. Give a respectful concession speech and thank your base for support.

[ "Choose your bike. Do you want to bike outdoors or use a stationary bike? The advantage of stationary bikes is that you can do other things while you ride, like watch your favorite TV show. Regular bikes, however, get you outdoors and can have a positive impact on the environment if they replace transport by car. Of course, you can always do both.\nIf you choose a regular bike, be aware that there are many different bike styles, from mountain bikes to road bikes to beach cruisers to fixed gear bikes. Bikes can vary widely in price. The type of bike you choose will depend on your body type and on where you plan on riding. Talk to your local dealer, and consider arranging a bike fitting.\nIf you choose a stationary bike, you’ll either need to buy one or join a gym. You’ll also need to decide between a recumbent or an upright bike. Choose the former if you have back problems; choose the latter if you don’t. Upright bikes also help strengthen your core. <img> Pick the right clothes. According to Cornell University weight-loss researcher Brian Wansink, wearing fitted clothes made of lycra instead of baggier outfits makes it easier to keep track of your weight loss. Wansink found that prisoners tend to gain weight because of the baggy jumpsuits they’re forced to wear.\nLoose-fitting clothes will also create drag and slow you down.\nChoose clothes that make more visible to motorists.\nOver-dressing to sweat more (a common practice in France) won’t actually help you lose weight. <img> Get the right accessories. A helmet is a must-have if you plan on taking your bike on the road. Make sure you buy one that fits you properly. You’ll also want to bring along a patch kit to repair busted tires and a small hand pump to inflate them. If you plan on storing your bike outside, get a bike lock.\nIt’s also a good idea to carry a saddlebag to store your ID, your keys, and your phone, which might fall out of your pockets as you ride.\nCarrying a water bottle means that you can stay hydrated while you ride.\nConsider carrying carbon dioxide cylinders in your pack to quickly re-inflate flat tires. <img> ", "Start slowly. Start out nice and easy in a safe location like your neighborhood before tackling more difficult terrain like hills. Once you get more comfortable, you can begin biking in more high-traffic areas.\nStick to flat areas at the beginning. Try a local park or bike trail, or find a route using a website like traillink.com.\nWhen you first start biking, you may not be able to travel more than a few miles. Stay close to home so that you don’t get stranded. You should be able to bike a few miles within a month or so.\nIt may be hard in the beginning, but try to implement your training slowly into your routine, always working a little bit everyday. <img> Alternate the intensity of your ride. Sprinting with high resistance will burn more calories. Riding at a more leisurely pace with low resistance will help build endurance. However, a combination of the two is actually your best bet. A study published in the Journal of Applied Physiology found that alternating between sprinting and endurance burns more calories.\nRide on hills! Champion cyclist Rebecca Rusch uses standing hill drills (that is, alternating between standing and sitting while pedalling up a hill) to build her endurance.\nRide harder at the very end.\nTry spin classes at your local gym, or consider hiring a trainer. <img> Make recovery time part of your routine. Plan on riding hard one day and then doing a more leisurely “recovery ride” or some cross-training the next. You should plan entire days off too.\nMake sure you’re getting enough sleep and giving yourself breaks between cycling sessions. According to Stacy T. Sims, exercise physiologist at Stanford and founder of Osmo Nutrition, sleep deprivation can lead to false hunger and unnecessary cravings.\nConsider getting a massage on your day off. <img> Set specific goals. Determine your target weight and estimate how long it will take you to reach this goal. Biking for weight loss is a long-term strategy. Don’t be discouraged if you don’t see immediate results.\nLosing 1 to 2 pounds a week is a sensible, achievable goal.\nUse an online BMI calculator to help determine your ideal weight. <img> ", "Eat breakfast. While there is some disagreement about whether you should eat breakfast before or after biking, eating breakfast nevertheless plays an important role in weight loss.\nMany people associate breakfast with cereal and bacon. However, if you want to lose weight, all of your meals should consist of lots of fruits and vegetables. Fresh fruits and veggies are best, but frozen versions are often excellent. Use caution when buying canned fruits and veggies, which can contain added sodium and sugar.\nFor protein, choose lean meats, fish, beans, eggs, and nuts. <img> Eat while biking. This might seem odd, but eating while on a longer ride can actually help keep you going on longer rides and can help you avoid overeating after rides.\nBars, bananas, and gels are good choices for eating while riding.\nPlan on eating 200-250 calories per hour. <img> Eat right after biking. The 30 to 60 minutes after your biking session constitute your body’s “recovery time.” Your body needs nutrients to help repair itself.\nCarbohydrates alone help restore glycogen levels. But eating a combination of carbohydrates and protein together means you don’t have to eat as many carbs, which can be difficult after a grueling workout.\nEating protein also helps to rebuild the muscles that have broken down during your ride.\nPrep your recovery food before you ride in case you’re too tired to put something together when you finish. <img> Stay hydrated. Make sure you drink plenty of water before, during, and after biking. Soon after finishing your biking session, refill your water bottle and drink the entire thing.\nBeware energy drinks, which contain caffeine and other stimulants and can lead to dehydration. <img> ", "Keep your bike visible and accessible. Storing your bike out of sight allows for other priorities to get in the way of your biking routine. According to Stanford health psychologist and fitness instructor Kelly Mc Gonigal , having a reminder to exercise will keep you motivated to do so.\nStore your bike in a place where you will be able to use it. <img> Vary your routes. An occasional change of scenery will break up the monotony of riding the same route over and over again, and it will present new physical challenges. <img> Commute by bicycle. You can bike to work or do errands around town on a bike. The average bicycle commuter loses weight without putting forth any extra effort. You’ll also save money on gas and have an easy time finding parking.\nIf you’re planning to ride your bike to work, bring a change of clothes and consider showering at the office, if that’s possible. Whatever you do, avoid being too sweaty at work.\nPlan your route to work carefully to make sure you’re not late for work. Make the trip on a day you’re not working so that you can get comfortable with the routine. <img> Make friends with other bikers. Having friends you can ride with, whether in a spinning class at the gym or on the open road, means that you can exercise and socialize at the same time. <img> " ]

[ "Give your child affection as a reward. Using affection as a reward can be an effective way to let your child know you approve of their behavior. You may give your child a high five, a pat on the back, arm or shoulder, or a big smile. You can also display other forms of affection, like hugs or kisses.\nThe benefit of using affection as a reward is that it is free and immediate, so you can use it as a reward as soon as your child does something good. Displaying affection toward your child can also help them get used to displaying affection in public and get comfortable with being social and affectionate with others. <img> Spend extra, quality time with your child. You can also reward you child’s good behavior by spending extra time with your child. This could be an additional five to ten minutes of reading time before bed or extra time together after school doing an activity your child enjoys, such as playing a certain board game. Using quality time as a form of reward can also allow you to create stronger social bonds with your child.\nFor example, your child may love to spend time with you in the kitchen. You may then reward their good behavior by allowing them to help you prepare a batch of cookies or add decorations to a cake. This will allow you both to spend quality time together and create something you can both enjoy. <img> Reward your child with a special outing or activity. Maybe your child enjoys going to a park near your home or maybe your child can not get enough of a play zone at the mall. If you child is on good behavior, you may reward them with a special outing to their favorite place or the opportunity to do a favorite activity.\nFor example, maybe your child enjoys going to the movies. You may then reward their good behavior by taking them to the latest movie for kids, a movie date for just the two of you. <img> Allow your child to spend time with their friends as a reward. Your child may also respond well to getting free time as a reward, where they can hang out with their friends. This is a good reward for older children, as it will allow your child to connect socially with others.\nYou may set a time limit for this reward, such as giving your child one extra hour of play time at a friend’s house or allow your child to sleep over for one night at a friend’s house. This way, you still have control of the reward but your child is still able to benefit from it. <img> ", "Allow your child to choose a special meal. You can reward your child using a material reward like food. But, rather than simply give your child their favorite food, you may give them the opportunity to choose a special meal that you can enjoy together. This could be a favorite meal of homemade spaghetti or a takeout meal. Your child will enjoy the feeling of responsibility that comes with choosing a special meal.\nKeep in mind there is some debate around using food as a form of material praise. Some child specialist argue that using food to praise your child can lead to an unhealthy relationship with food in the future and undermine your child’s healthy eating habits. Allowing your child to have a special, unhealthy meal can lead to confusion around when eating unhealthy food is appropriate. Your child may associate unhealthy food with good behavior and positive self-esteem.\nThough you can use food as a form of reward, try to use it sparingly. Often, social rewards and verbal praise can be more effective and healthy for your child than material rewards, like food. <img> Give your child useful items as rewards. Material items can be used as rewards but you should be careful not to simply give your child toys. Instead, you may go for practical items like school supplies or items for your child's room. This way, your child can still reap the satisfaction of a material reward and get use out of it.\nYou may give your child pencils, pens, and notepads that they can use in school. Or, you may give your child stickers to decorate their notebooks and their lunch box. Your child may also have specific school supplies in mind, which you can then buy for them as a reward for good behavior. <img> Reward your child with items that relate to their favorite hobby or activity. You should also try to go for material items that feel specific to your child’s interests. Think about material items that complement your child’s favorite activity or hobby. This will ensure your child gets use out of the material item and does not see it as just another toy or material item.\nFor example, maybe your child is really into a certain video game. You may then get your child a video game made by the same company or designer, or a doll version of their favorite video game hero. If your child is into other hobbies, like painting, you may get them a set of paint brushes or a new canvas. <img> Consider giving your child an allowance for good behavior. An allowance is a good option for children once they reach four or five, as at this age children tend to be more aware of wants and needs. Giving your child an allowance is a good way to teach your child the value of money and how be responsible with money.\nYou may start the allowance by giving your child a small amount of money based on how old they are, such as $1 for each year old. So, a seven year old would get $7 in allowance. The idea is to give your child enough allowance to get one or two things they want but not too much, as you want your child to decide what to spend their money on and to spend it wisely.\nStart by giving your child real cash so they can hold the physical money and learn how to count it. Then, as they get older and hit adolescence, you can give them virtual money, which they can manage through an allowance App on their phone or on the computer. Once your child is a teenager, they may be ready for getting their allowance through a bank account. <img> ", "Encourage your child to self-evaluate and self-assess. Rather than use standard words of praise like “Great job!”, “Good boy/good girl!” or “That’s right!”, you should try to get your child to evaluate themselves and their skills when you praise them. You may say, “You look like you enjoyed that!”, “I’m happy you did that, you look pleased with yourself!” or, “Did it feel good to do that?” Doing this will encourage your child to think about their own actions and decisions, rather than constantly seek your approval or validation. This will allow your child to feel empowered and see good behavior as a positive way to act.\nYou may also ask your child questions as a form of praise to get them to self-evaluate. For example, you may ask, “How do you like your painting?” or “Are you happy with how that piece fits into the game?”\nYou should also try to encourage your child to reflect on their decisions and choices. You may ask, “How do you feel about the picture you drew?” or “Did you enjoy telling that story in class?” This will help to build your child’s self-esteem and strengthen your relationship with them. <img> Use “I” statements when you praise your child. You should also try to always use “I” statements when you give your child verbal praise, as this will show your child you appreciate their actions. It will also make your praise specific and singular to your child. Your child can model their behavior on yours and also learn how to use “I” statements for themselves.\nFor example, you may complement your child’s behavior by saying, “I love the colors you picked!” or “I really enjoyed how you performed that dance!”. Do this instead of saying “what a good dancer you are!” or “gosh, you’re a great dancer”. “I” statements will make your praise more specific to your child and show your child how you express your feelings and thoughts in a positive way.\nYou should also avoid generalizing statements like, “Good girl for sharing your pencils!” or “You are a good boy for staying quiet in class today.” Instead, you can say, “Thanks for sharing with your friend today, I think he appreciated it.” <img> Focus on praising the behavior, not the child. You should never say your child is “bad” or “good”, only that their behavior is “bad” or “good”. This will ensure your child does not associate your praise with themselves overall, and only to their behavior. Be specific and tell your child exactly how and why her behavior was good.\nFor example, your child may have made you a birthday card. Rather than say, “What a great card you have made me!”, you should be specific and tell your child what elements you liked in the card. Maybe you complement their choice of color, their penmanship, or their sweet message inside the card. <img> ", "Use a rewards chart. Many parents use a rewards chart to let their child know how well they are behaving. Check off good behavior with smiley faces or plus signs. You may use stickers to track your child’s behavior, with gold stars for good behavior. Or, you may allow your child to create their own chart to then post on the refrigerator or the wall. This will allow your child to judge their own behavior on a daily basis.\nThere has been some criticism of the use of a rewards chart to track a child’s behavior. Some studies have shown that offering up tangible rewards for behavior can actually make your child view good behavior as transactional. Your child may only be motivated to do well for a reward and get upset when they are not rewarded every time they act. <img> Use different forms of praise. You should try to use a variety of rewards for your child’s behavior, as kids get bored easily. If you use the same rewards every time, the reward may lose its power over time. You may give your child verbal praise for small acts of good behavior and then social or material rewards for larger acts of good behavior.\nIf you have multiple children in one household, you should also use different rewards for each child. No two children are alike and each child may respond differently to different rewards. Try to fit the reward to the child’s personality and demeanor. <img> Give younger children more immediate rewards. Younger children respond well to smaller, more immediate rewards, such as verbal praise or a small material item, like a sticker or a small toy. Many children can start to understand the power of rewards by the age of three. You should focus on smaller, immediate rewards first and then shift your approach as your child gets older.\nOlder children may respond better to more accumulative rewards, such as an allowance or extra time doing something they enjoy. Adolescents and teenagers also start to see the value in social rewards, such as quality time with friends or quality time with parents. <img> Set realistic, specific behavioral goals for your child. You should also encourage your child to continue to display good behavior by establishing behavioral goals that are realistic and specific to your child. This will help your child to learn the value of good behavior and feel as though they can meet your expectations.\nFor example, maybe you expect your child to help set the table for dinner every night. You may model this behavior by helping them set the table at first and then over time, give them the responsibility to do it on their own. You should then praise your child when they set the table without you asking, reinforcing their good behavior. This will allow you to set your child up to succeed and then praise them when they fulfill your reasonable expectations. <img> " ]

[ "Don't try and just scrape by in class. It's easy to fall into a case of early senioritis - where you don't want to do any of your schoolwork, because you feel like you're almost done. However, allowing your grades to drop will show up on your transcripts, which can potentially harm your opportunities for colleges and jobs. If you slack off too much or skip school, you may even put your graduation at risk. Don't let the lack of motivation in junior year bite you later on!\nRemember, if you fail a class in junior year, you don't have a lot of time to make it up - you'll either have to take summer school, which will take time away from your summer, or you'll have to take it again in senior year, which can result in you being overly stressed out. <img> Make sure to choose the right classes. You'll need to meet your school's credit requirement in order to graduate, and by the time you're in junior year, you'll only have two years to make up any missing credits. Talk to your school counselor to make sure you're on track with your credits, to make plans for junior and senior year, and to figure out how to make up any missing or incomplete credits.\nYou'll usually be encouraged to take advanced classes in junior year, though it's best to only take advanced classes that you can handle and in subjects you enjoy.\nUsually, your school's mandatory classes will cover a fair amount of your needed credits, but just taking mandatory classes won't get you all the credits you need. Check with your school counselor to see what you still need. <img> Consider any advanced tests you may be taking. If you're in AP or IB classes, or even if you just want the college credit, it's a good idea to pay attention to your classes and start studying for the advanced tests. Look up when the testing dates are and mark them down, and set aside time to study for them. It'll make it easier to achieve high scores - especially if your teachers are also giving you advice for the tests! <img> Find time for your homework. You probably already have a homework schedule figured out from freshman or sophomore year; now's not the time to let it slide, even amongst college visits or your work. Junior year is often one of the turning points of your school year, so do your best to keep on top of your work so that you can, in turn, keep on top of your grades.\nIf you're unable to complete your homework because you're getting too much of it, talk to your parents, your teachers, and your school counselor to figure out how to complete all your work. Your teacher may be able to give you extensions or otherwise find ways to get your work in without a bad grade. <img> ", "Take good care of yourself. You're not invincible, and everyone still needs to care for themselves. Make sure you eat healthy meals, shower, and do your best to get adequate sleep, as well as set aside time for yourself to do things you enjoy.\nNot everyone is going to be able to balance their schedules perfectly, but you should at least try to sleep, eat regularly, and spend time doing something for yourself.\nSleep is critical, so make sure that you sleep enough - if you can't get a full night's sleep because of classes or other occupations, try to find times to nap during the day. <img> Update your schedule. It's good to keep your plans written down somewhere, especially if you have trouble remembering them. Find out the dates of important things you'll need to attend (such as tests, extracurricular activities, homework due dates, and so forth) and put them on a calendar, or set reminders on your phone. This will make it easier to plan around your activities. <img> Don't let socializing get in the way of school. It's easy to get wrapped up in hanging out with friends, partying, or going to school events, but those don't help you graduate! Keep your social time limited to after you've done your schoolwork, rather than before it.\nOn the flip side, try not to completely abandon socializing for fear of not getting into college. Spending time with friends is necessary and healthy, and can give you a much-needed break from the stressors of school.\nTry working with friends on things like study groups or even college visits. <img> Consider cleaning up your social media profiles. Some colleges and employers will potentially look at your social media profiles to see if you'd be a good fit for the school or the workplace, and things you posted years ago and forgot about can end up hurting your college admissions or job applications in the future. Find your social media accounts and hide or delete anything that could backfire, such as dubious groups or accounts, or anything depicting illegal behavior. <img> Don't be afraid to enjoy yourself! Junior year itself might not be all you imagined it to be, but find the bright spots where you can and power through it. You'll be a high school senior before you know it, and remember that the effort you're putting forward will be worth it to be able to graduate! <img> ", "Start thinking about your post-graduation plans. Junior year tends to fly by faster than you think it will, and you don't want to put off all your planning until senior year. You should begin to think seriously about what you want to do after you graduate, even if it's just a rough outline - do you want to take a gap year? Attend community college? Attend a four-year college? Get a job right away? There's no right or wrong choices for what path you want to take; just get an idea of what you want to do, at the very least, so that you'll be prepared for when senior year arrives.\nDon't panic if you don't have your college list sorted out, if you don't know what you want to do, or if you don't even want to go to college. College isn't the end-all-be-all of any part of high school, even senior year, and it's okay not to know.\nKeep your options open. It's entirely possible for your plans to change between junior year and graduation. You don't want to change your mind later, but not be able to adjust your plans. <img> Look into the SAT or ACT. Most students take the SAT or ACT in their junior year, since they usually want to be able to send the results to colleges by senior year. If you're on track for a four-year college, then it's a good idea to look into taking the preparatory exams, as well as looking into the testing dates for the test of your choice. In the meantime, make sure to study with study guides, practice tests, and tutoring - and don't slack near the end of the year!\nIf you aren't sure whether to take the SAT or ACT, consider the contents of each test and talk to your school counselor to help you decide which test to take. Don't feel pressured to take both - no college requires both tests, and it can be extremely stressful to prepare for both tests.\nDon't automatically skip out on the SAT or ACT just because you're taking a gap year or are going to community college. If you attend a four-year later on or plan to go into certain fields in community college, you may need the scores. <img> Get letters of recommendation early. If you're applying to colleges this year, it's a bad idea to put off getting a letter of recommendation, especially if the person you want to write the letter gets a lot of writing requests. The College Board recommends having the letters done at least a month before your application deadline, and trying to get your letter written during the summer or another time when the person you want to write the letter (such as teachers or counselors) aren't going to be swamped with them. <img> Choose what to do about your extracurriculars. Junior year is likely to be extremely busy, and you may not be able to balance all of your extracurricular activities with school. You may need to drop or put less priority on some of your outside activities, but that's okay. Now is the time to slow down and pick out what you want to stick with.\nTry stepping up your responsibility in regards to one of your extracurriculars. Maybe you can become a co-leader of a club you're in, or gain a higher position in the community you volunteer for.\nYou should stick with the extracurriculars that you enjoy. Try not to stay in an extracurricular you don't like just because of how it'd look on a college application. Colleges will often look for dedication to one activity, since a jam-packed extracurricular schedule just looks like you're trying to impress. <img> Explore colleges, if you plan on going to college. Many high schools encourage juniors to begin looking at colleges and thinking about which one they want to attend. If you're planning on going to college, you should look into colleges that have the major you're considering, as well as consider your learning style and your living requirements. Depending on what colleges you're applying to and the classes you're currently taking, you should look into when you need to fill out and submit applications, too.\nBe careful not to rule out community college. Attending a four-year college is usually better for those who already know what they want to major in; if you aren't sure what you want to do yet, community college allows you more time to take your general classes at a lower cost, and you can transfer to a four-year later on.\nIf you begin working on college applications, work on them ahead of time and try to find things you can reuse among colleges. For example, you may be able to apply with the Common Application or reuse some essays.\nDon't panic if you don't know which college you want to go to yet or are torn between various colleges - the sheer amount of options can definitely be overwhelming, and you don't need to make the decision right away. You can still apply even after you've graduated. <img> Think about your job opportunities. Some juniors choose to work, or start planning what job they want to work in the future. While you don't need to be absolutely certain right away, it can help to look into some career opportunities that involve things you enjoy, or get some work experience. Try looking into what your school offers - many schools have a career center where you can apply for internships or work at various places.\nIf you plan to get a job or internship, make sure you have a work permit from your school (if your state requires them), and ensure you know how to write a resume and handle the interview.\n\nOnly take a job if you know you can handle it alongside school and other activities. Getting a job in high school can be extremely taxing, and junior year is usually one of the most hectic school years. If you don't know whether or not you'll be able to handle the job, err on the side of caution and don't look for one yet. <img> Be careful not to stress yourself out. Any year of high school is undoubtedly going to be stressful, but the thought of post-graduation plans shouldn't make you want to tear your hair out. Always make sure you're not overworking yourself and that you have time to relax and unwind, or at least sleep. It's crucial to make sure you don't experience a decline in your grades or mental health. <img> " ]

[ "Enjoy raki socially with other people while having a good conversation. If you’re traveling in eastern Europe, chances are you’ll come across raki at a restaurant or gathering. It’s commonly served when people gather together to have fun or celebrate something.\nDepending on where you live, it may be hard to find raki to purchase. You can buy bottles online, or if there is a large ethnic community in your area, a specialty grocery store may carry it. <img> Sip your raki and drink it straight if you like strong liquor. Raki has an alcohol-by-volume (ABV) of 45% to 50%, so it’s one of the stronger liquors, and some homemade varieties are even stronger. It’s not traditional to take raki as a shot, so be prepared to sip your drink.\nLuckily, raki is nearly always served with snacks or a light meal or some sort, so you won’t have to drink on an empty stomach. <img> Dilute your raki with ice or water if you don’t want to drink it straight. If you’re at a gathering, there will probably be a bowl of ice on the table and a pitcher of cold water. You can add as much to your drink as you’d like. Adding ice or water also changes the color of the raki to a milky white, which is why coupled with its high ABV, it’s often fondly called “lion’s milk.”\nRaki is flavored with anise, which contains a compound called anethole. Anethole can’t dissolve in water, so when you add water to your drink, it separates the anethole from the liquor and creates an opaque milky color. <img> Eat a little bit of cheese and melon before sipping your raki. At a minimum, raki is traditionally served with bowls of cut melon and dishes with cheeses, most often feta. At a more extensive gathering, you’ll probably encounter a mezze platter, which is a spread of things like hummus, baba ganoush, tzatziki, fresh cut vegetables, stuffed grape leaves, olives, tabouli, and other tasty dishes.\nA mezze platter is very similar to tapas, or small dishes meant to be shared with others. This supports the communal aspect of drinking raki with others. <img> Make a toast to your companions as you eat and drink. Before you sip your drink, you can say “serefinize,” which means, “in your honor” or “cheers!” Clink together the bottoms of your glasses when you toast others, and enjoy the friendly communal atmosphere.\nTouching the bottoms of glasses signifies that you’re thinking of the other person. <img> ", "Order a single drink for yourself by asking for a kadeh. The “kadeh” is actually the kind of glass that raki is served in. By ordering one, you signify that you just want a single serving of the drink. Say “bir kadeh raki,” which is pronounced, BEER kah-DEH rah-KUH.\nIf your waiter adds ice or water for you rather than providing a pitcher and bowl on the table, say “taman,” when enough has been added to your drink. <img> Purchase a half-bottle of raki if you’re drinking with several friends. Purchasing drinks for others is a sign of goodwill and helps set the tone for the night. You can say “bir otuzbeşlik raki” to order a half-bottle to be delivered to your table.\nThe pronunciation for the half bottle is BEER OH-tooz-BESH-leek rah-KUH. <img> Get a full bottle to enjoy with friends over the course of several hours. Order a “bir şişe raki” (BEER SHEE-sheh rah-KUH), which will provide you with about 24 ounces (680 g), or about 16 drinks. If you do this, plan to stay at the same place for a long evening of drinking, eating, and talking with your companions.\nThis full bottle is also sometimes called a “yetmişlik” (yeht-MEESH-leek). <img> Try a cocktail for a new twist on this classic drink. Several high-end restaurants and bars have started creating raki cocktails to elevate their patrons’ drinking experiences. Most often, raki is mixed with some kind of citrus-flavored liqueur, lime, and pomegranate juice.\nIf you don’t see a raki cocktail advertised anywhere, chances are the location you’re at doesn’t offer them. <img> " ]

[ "Learn about the standby policies of the airline you are flying. Airlines like United Airlines and Delta have different policies regarding standby passengers. These policies reflect fees, treatment of checked luggage, and more. As a result, you should take a minute to read your airline's policies. <img> Purchase an inexpensive ticket. If your initial goal is to fly standby, you should try to buy the cheapest ticket possible to your final destination. Without a ticket, you won’t be able to clear security and won’t have the ability to take advantage of a last-minute standby opportunity.\nBuy a ticket from the specific airline you want to travel on or from discount travel websites like Travelocity, Priceline, Expedia, or Kayak.\nHaving a ticket to the destination you want to go to is important, as many airlines will not allow you to fly standby unless you're already going to that destination. <img> Avoid buying a ticket you don't want to use. Remember that flying standby is not guaranteed. Thus, you need to be smart about the ticket you purchase. If you won't want to use it, you shouldn't buy it. This is because there is a very good chance you won't be able to get a standby ticket. <img> Get a buddy pass to avoid buying a ticket. If you or someone you know works for a given airline, you may be to use a “buddy pass.” This pass will allow you to show up to a gate without purchasing a ticket. Generally, buddy passes are the only way you’ll be able to get through security and to a gate without a ticket.\nAirlines provide a set number of buddy passes to their employees every year.\nBuddy passes may enable users to purchase tickets at a steep discount – sometimes between 30% and 60%.\nDepending on the airline, buddy passes may allow the user to check two bags. <img> Call ahead to increase your chances of getting a standby ticket. If you’re considering traveling standby ahead of time, you should probably call the airline and let them know. In some cases, airlines will be able to put you on a standby list. <img> ", "Arrive at the airport early. In most cases, you should plan to arrive at the airport at least two hours before the flight you want to fly standby on. If the airport is particularly busy, or there have been many flight cancellations, you may want to arrive even earlier. This way, you may be able to get on the standby list for more than one flight.\nYour chances of getting a standby seat are much higher on earlier flights – so arrive as early in the morning as you possibly can. <img> Introduce yourself at the boarding gate. After you’ve cleared security and arrived at the gate of the flight you want to be on, you should approach the airline representatives at the gate desk and introduce yourself. Let them know that you’re booked for a later flight and want to fly standby on their flight. If you’re not already on a standby list, they may be able to put you on one.\nBe as polite as possible. Remember, the airline representative is not responsible for flight cancellations or any other issues. <img> Stay at the gate until the airplane taxis away. While you may want to give up as boarding is winding down, you should stay at the gate until the airplane’s door is closed and the flight taxis away from the jetway. This is important, as the flight crew might determine new seat availability at the very last minute. <img> Pay the fee if you're selected to fly standby. If you’re selected as a standby flyer, you will likely have to pay a fee for the privilege. Fees vary by airline, and can range from $25 to $100. However, your fee may be waived if you’re a preferred flyer with that specific airline.\nYou may also have to pay a fee if you check a piece of luggage. <img> ", "Travel light. Depending on the airline and specific circumstances, your chances of getting a standby seat may be higher if you do not need to check baggage. This is because standby seats are often filled at the very last minute, and there may not be time to check your baggage.\nIn addition, if an airline does check your baggage, it may be checked on a different flight to your destination. <img> Be open to changing your plans. When it comes to traveling standby, you’ll have to build in a decent amount of flexibility into your travel plans. Without flexibility, you won’t be able to take advantage of the major benefits of flying standby. As a result, expect the unexpected when flying standby.\nInform anyone that might be expecting you at your destination that you could be early or late.\nMake sure connecting flights or other transportation options are scheduled appropriately.\nCancel or postpone hotel accommodations if you’ll be delayed overnight. <img> Travel by yourself. While it is possible to travel standby with a group, it is very hard to do so. This is because there are usually only a couple of standby seats available on a given plane. If you are traveling standby with a group, your group might get broken up and may be put onto two or more different planes. <img> Focus on off-peak times. If you plan to travel standby, try to fly at times when fewer people are flying. This is because the more people flying, the less seats will be available on given flights. In addition, more people flying means more competition for the few standby seats that may be available.\nDon’t plan to fly standby on holiday weekends, major holidays, or during specific events (like the Super Bowl or Olympics). <img> Join an airline rewards program. Many airlines will give preferential treatment to members of their rewards programs. Such perks include being moved to the front of the list of standby flyers, paying a smaller fee to fly standby, or getting a free upgrade. Thus, consider joining a rewards program if you plan to fly standby in the future. <img> " ]

[ "Loosen the rafter knobs on both awning support arms. There should be a black knob on the back of each awning arm. Loosen these so that the awning arms will be able to move, being careful not to unscrew them all the way.\nWhen you’re traveling, these knobs should be tightened well so that they don’t become loose and fall off. <img> Release the travel locks on both support arms. To release the travel locks, squeeze the support tabs on the awning. These tabs are what hold the two arms together. When you squeeze them, you should hear a click telling you that they’ve been properly released.\nSome models require you to swing the release tabs up to undo them. <img> Switch the ratchet mechanism to the roll-down position. The ratchet mechanism is essentially a directional lever located on the end of the awning closest to the front of the RV. Using your awning rod, switch the lever to the open position.\nAll RVs that come with an awning will come with an awning rod as well.\nThe ratchet mechanism should be labeled with both “open” and “close” for when you go to switch the lever.\nSome RVs have a slide mechanism on the awning arm that releases the ratchet by itself. <img> ", "Roll out the awning using the awning rod. Hook the black pull strap on the awning with your awning rod. Use the rod to pull the strap straight out, opening the awning. You can use your hands to pull the strap the rest of the way until the awning is fully extended. <img> Slide the rafters up the awning arms and lock them. The rafters, or the inner arms, should be pushed to the top of the opposing arms. Once the inner arms slide all the way into position, you should hear a click that will lock them.

Make sure to tighten both sides of the awning. <img> Raise the awning using the handles on each arm. Lift the handle on the arm and raise the awning to the desired height. If you’re doing this by yourself, it’s best to raise the awning a little bit at a time on each side. If you have another person helping you, you can raise both sides at once.\nLifting the handle on the arm releases the lock, allowing you to raise the awning. Once you release the handle, the awning will lock.\nMake sure the awning is high enough to clear the door. <img> " ]

[ "Face your opponent and grab their right shoulder with your left hand. Perform the tombstone face to face with your opponent and arm length apart. Get into the starting position by grabbing their right shoulder with your left hand.\nIn a professional setting, the tombstone often starts with a kick or by throwing your opponent against the ropes. Do not try these yet. Just get the basics of the move down first.\nIf you’re left-handed, reverse these instructions.\nSome piledrivers are performed with the opponent facing away from you, but this wouldn't be a tombstone piledriver. <img> Tuck your right hand under their left arm. Continue holding your opponent's shoulder. Then lift their left arm and tuck your right hand underneath it. Place your hand on their upper arm, just above the armpit. <img> Toss their left arm onto your left shoulder. Lift their arm and bring it towards your left side. Tuck your head down under their arm. Then rest the arm on your left shoulder.\nKeep holding their right shoulder with your left hand while you flip their other arm. <img> Grab the inside of their left thigh with your right hand. While keeping their arm over your shoulder and your left hand on their shoulder, reach down with your right hand. Grab the inside of the opponent’s thigh a few inches down from their groin.\nYou may have to bend down a bit to reach their leg, depending on how tall you both are. If you do have to bend, lower your body with your legs by bending your knees. Bending over from your hips stresses your back too much. <img> Flip the opponent over your right shoulder. Get a firm grip on the opponent’s leg and shoulder. Then flip them by swinging their legs to your right and rotating them 180 degrees. Point their legs straight up in the air.\nBoth people need to work together at this part especially. The opponent has to jump while you lift. Otherwise you could seriously injure your back trying to lift that much weight. <img> Rest your opponent on your shoulder by their hips. Stand up straight so your body is in a good position to support your opponent's weight. Then rest them on your shoulder by folding their hips over your shoulder. Don't slouch or bend, or you risk injuring your back.\nRemember that your opponent has to help you here. They shouldn't be dead weight. Make sure they hold onto you and point their legs up to help you support their weight. <img> Hold your opponent around their midsection. Once you're supporting your opponent's weight, quickly wrap your arms just below their chest. Make sure you have a firm grip and the opponent’s weight won’t shift when you execute the move.\nFor the firmest grip, lock your hands together behind the opponent’s back rather than trying to grab your opponent directly.\nAt the same time, your opponent should wrap their arms around you as well. This holds them in place during the move. <img> Align their head 6 inches (15 cm) above your knees. This is the key part of the tombstone. It looks like you’re slamming their head into the mat, but in reality, only your knees hit the mat. Hold your partner so the top of their head is 6 inches (15 cm) from your knees. This leaves plenty of room so their head won’t hit the ground.\nCommunicate with your partner during this part. Let them tell you if their head is too low.\nAs you get more experienced, you can hold them closer to your knees to make the move look more realistic. But when you’re starting, keep their head a good distance from your knees.\nAt this point, abort the move if your partner’s head is too low. Put them down and redo the setup. Never try the move while your partner’s head is too low or you could break their neck. <img> Drop your knees to the ground. Hold onto your partner firmly and make sure they’re doing the same. Then drop your knees to the ground so they slam the mat with a loud “thud.” Don’t drop your arms at all. Keep your opponent’s head above your knees through the whole movement.\nSome wrestlers add a slight jump before they drop their knees to amplify the sound and drama. Add that later on when you’re more experienced. Don’t try to jump while you’re a beginner.\nWear kneepads to avoid bruising your knees while you practice. <img> Open your arms and let the person roll away from you. Once your knees make impact, let your partner go. Open your arms and let them roll away from you. If they roll backwards properly, their back and feet will hit the mat as they drop. This completes the move.\nCheck with your partner to make sure they’re okay after finishing the move.\nIn a match or show, you can follow up the piledriver with a pin. Make sure your partner is okay before doing any further moves. <img> ", "Work in a real wrestling ring. These rings are designed with padding to absorb these kinds of moves and keep the wrestlers safe. Don’t wrestle on grass, a mat, or similarly padded surface. Only work in wrestling rings for safety.\nBackyard wrestling rings are available for purchase. Search online for a regulation ring.\nSome gyms may also have wrestling rings, if you don’t want to buy one. Check for any gyms like this near you.\nAlthough they look similar, wrestling and boxing rings aren’t the same. Boxing rings don’t have the same type of padding that wrestling rings do, so you could get hurt working in a boxing ring. <img> Perform this move on an experienced wrestler only. While it may not look like it, the tombstone requires both participants to know what they’re doing. The other person needs to know where to grab you, how tightly to hold on, and how to roll away when the move is done. It’s not something that amateurs can do safely. Always work with a partner who knows how the move is performed and who has the strength to hold you properly.\nAn experienced wrestler can also tell you if you’re doing the move wrong. If your partner says at any point for you to stop the move, then stop immediately.\nIdeally, work with someone who is regularly your wrestling partner. The more experience you have with each other, the safer the move is. <img> Avoid doing this move on someone larger than you. If your opponent is heavier than you, this move will be very difficult. You may not be able to support their weight on your shoulder. Even worse, they could shift downward during the move and hit the mat. Avoid accidents by performing the move on someone roughly your size or smaller.\nIf you can legitimately lift several times your bodyweight, then you may attempt the move on someone heavier than you are. But this is the only circumstance that you should attempt the move on someone larger. <img> Confirm that the other person is okay immediately after the move. Never perform any more moves on the person until you’re sure they’re okay. Stop what you’re doing and ask. If they indicate at all that they’re hurt, or if they don’t answer, stop wrestling immediately and get help.\nIf you’re in a competitive match or show and don’t want to stop the action, develop a signal system with your partner. For example, they could squeeze your hand after they hit the ground to indicate that they’re okay. <img> " ]

[ "Place the author’s name and the page number in parentheses. Whenever you quote from or paraphrase a source in your writing, you should include an in-text citation. The basic format recommends putting the last name of the author of the source, followed by the page number, in parentheses.\nFor example, if you are quoting from page 28 of John Francis’ book Planetwalker, you would reference this as (Francis 28).\nIf the work has multiple authors, list them. For example: (Ohlin and Upson 127)\nIf the source has more than three authors, just use the first one and the abbreviation “et al.”: (Ohlin et al. 127) <img> Include the most relevant information for non-print sources. Many digital, visual, and auditory formats do not have page numbers or other information that corresponds to that used when citing traditional print sources. The MLA recommends using the most relevant information you can find (like an author’s name or title) when citing such sources. For instance:\nIf you are citing an article by Frank Miller from CNN.com called “Midnight in Gotham City” that does not have page numbers, your parenthetical citation can be simply (Miller).\nSince page numbers for ebooks will vary from device to device, include the chapter number or other section heading instead, if possible: (Miller ch. 2). <img> Place the parenthetical citation at the end of the line of text. Position the parenthetical citation at the end of the sentence where you include the quote or reference. The parenthetical citation should come before the period at the end of the sentence.\nIf you are including a long, indented block quote, however, place the parenthetical citation after the final period. <img> Alter the basic format if necessary. If a source does not have a named author, just put a shortened version of the title followed by the page number in the parenthetical citation. If you are citing multiple works by the same author, include a brief title of the source. For example, you may have parenthetical citations that look like:\n(“Report on International Banking Regulations”), for a website with this title but no listed author or page numbers.\n(Franken “Wake Up!” 99) and (Franken “Dawn in America” 87), if you are citing two works by Franken. <img> Use a limited citation if your text contains signal words. You don’t have to make your writing cluttered with repeated information. If your text makes clear the source/author you are citing, just include the page number in parentheses.\nFor instance, you may have a sentence that looks something like: “Jasmine Whitaker discusses the concept of ‘hyperspeed reading’ in her second book, Read ‘til You Drop (45).” <img> Keep track of consecutive citations. If you reference the same work several times in row, you can use a short form parenthetical citation. Your reader will assume the subsequent citations reference the same source. Give a full citation when you reference a new work. For instance:\n”The concept of ‘hyperspeed reading’ describes a method for reading far more quickly than normal (Whitaker 45). It asks that readers ‘guess what a text will say before they actually read each line’ (47). Other scholars doubt that readers can make substantial use of this technique, citing concerns like ‘the lack of attention given to things one hasn’t seen yet’ (Jackson 128).” <img> Check the MLA style guide if you are doing more advanced research. The basic format of in-text citations is useful and acceptable for many forms of writing. However, if you are doing specialized research or writing for a specific audience, you may be expected to include additional information in your citations, such as edition or chapter numbers.\nThe MLA Handbook contains official guidelines on more specialized citation needs.\nIf you are a student, check with your teacher about what kind of citation requirements you may need to follow. <img> ", "Gather the information that identifies each source. The most recent set of MLA guidelines relies on a set of principles that will allow you to cite any type of source, rather than a set of separate rules for different media (book, website, film, interview, podcast, etc.). You will list the details, with a period between each. Include any information you can find on the work’s:\nAuthor(s)\nTitle\nVersion\nNumber\nPublisher\nPublication date\nLocation (where you found the source)\tExpert Answer\t\t\t\t\t\tQ\t\t\t\tA wikiHow reader asked: \"How do you set up an MLA works cited page?\"\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\tChristopher Taylor, PhD\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tEnglish Professor\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tChristopher Taylor is an Adjunct Assistant Professor of English at Austin Community College in Texas. He received his PhD in English Literature and Medieval Studies from the University of Texas at Austin in 2014.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tEXPERT ADVICE\t\t\t\t\t\t\tAnswer from Christopher Taylor, PhD:\t\t\tChristopher Taylor, English professor, advises: \"Start by typing \"Works Cited\" and centering it at the top of a blank page. Then include all of your bibliographic citations in alphabetical order, indenting every line after the first line for each bibliographic entry.\" <img> Put the author and title of the source first. List the author (if known) starting with the last name. Follow with the full title of the source. If there is no author, just begin with the title. For instance: Francis, John. Planetwalker.\nGenerally, the titles of things like songs, poems, and articles are given in quotation marks. Books, films, television series and other large works are italicized.\nIf a work has multiple authors, list them in the same order they are given in the source. Put only the first author in last name, first name order. <img> Indicate if the source is located in a “container.” Some sources are contained within other other works. This applies to both traditional and new media, so for simplicity the MLA now refers to the works sources are nested in as “containers.” If your source has a container, list it after the title. Examples of containers include:\nAn article in a journal title (follow the article title in quotation marks with the journal title in italics: Jacobus, Francis. \"Early American Pottery Designs.\" American Historical Review.)\nA website hosting an article (follow the article title in quotation marks with the brief web address in italics: Miller, Frank. \"Gotham City at Night.\" CNN.com.)\nA poem in a poetry collection (list the title of the collection in italics after the title of the poem in quotation marks: Yeats, William Butler. \"Sailing to Byzantium.\" Twentieth Century Poetry.)\nA television series (list the television series in italics after the episode title in quotation marks: \"Hush.\" Buffy the Vampire Slayer.) <img> List other contributors, if applicable. Some works may have contributors other than the primary author. For instance, a book may have a translator, editor or illustrator. If this applies to your work, give the other contributors after any details about containers.\nFor example: Dostoevsky, Fyodor. Crime and Punishment. Translated by Constance Garnett. <img> Provide the edition, version, volume, and number information, if present. For example, an article in a journal will typically belong to a certain volume number, some books will be published in different edition numbers (first, second, third, etc.), and television episodes will be a certain number in an ordered series. If any of this information applies to your source, list it next.\nFor example: Jacobus, Francis. \"Early American Pottery Designs.\" American Historical Review. Vol. 6, no. 2. <img> Identify the publisher and date. For traditional print sources, the publisher is the organization that issues the text. Other examples of publishers might include a television show’s production company, a scholarly organization that issues a journal, or a museum that hosts a webpage on modern art. Follow this information with the date of publication.\nFor some media, like books or journal articles, the publication date may be given as a year. For example: Francis, John. Planetwalker. National Geographic Society, 2005.\nFor others, like newspaper articles, the full date is provided in date/month/year format. For example: Frankl, Jo. “Killer Bees are on the Rise.” Dallas Times. 14 June 2017. <img> List location information. An MLA works cited entry should list information about where the information was found. For a source like a chapter in a book or a journal article, you could provide page numbers. If you are citing an artwork, list the museum it is located in. If you are citing a website, include the URL.\nThe MLA now recommends including URLs for internet sources. If you are a student, your teacher may or may not ask for these.\nYou can include a Digital Object Identifier (DOI) instead of a URL, if one is provided.\nFor example: Jacobus, Francis. \"Early American Pottery Designs.\" American Historical Review. Vol. 6, no. 2, 2016. DOI: 10.1326/history.1064107 <img> Indicate whether the source has a second container. Some sources are nested within larger containers, particularly when it comes to ones accessed electronically. For instance, you might cite an article in a journal that is hosted on JSTOR, a television series episode you watched via Netflix, or see a music video that is hosted on YouTube. If this applies to your source, include the information at the end of the entry.\nFor example: Jacobus, Francis. \"Early American Pottery Designs.\" American Historical Review. Vol. 6, no. 2, 2016. JSTOR. DOI: 10.1326/history.1064107 <img> Format your works cited page. Put all of the source entries you have together in a page or section called “Works Cited.” List the sources in alphabetical order. Double space and use hanging indentation to make the list easier to read. <img> " ]

[ "Ask in person whenever possible. Receiving an invitation to be a groomsman is exciting. It also sends a meaningful message that you value your relationship with someone enough to ask that they stand beside you while you make one of the most significant commitments in your life. Accordingly, make your request personal by asking in person if you can.\nThere doesn’t need to be any pomp and circumstance. Simply get together and say something like, “Hey man, our friendship has meant a lot to me over the years. I wanted to ask you if you’d we willing to join Carrie and I on our wedding day as a groomsman?”\nKeep in mind you can still send along a funny card or a thoughtful gift in the mail. <img> Write them a letter. If you’re not able to speak in person with all of your groomsmen, consider writing a letter to those you will ask by mail. Since a letter can be more personal than a phone call, this is preferable, especially for a close friend that lives further away.\nBe specific with something like, “I’m writing to invite you to join us on our wedding day as a groomsman.”\nInclude a more personal message as well. For instance, say something about what your relationship with the recipient has meant, and why you want them to be at your wedding. <img> Send a reminder card. Even if you’re able to have the conversation in person, it’s worth sending a card with the details. Since you already spoke about it in person, the card will simply function as a tangible reminder, with important information like dates, location, and dress code.\nChoose or make a card that reflects your personality, an interest you share with your groomsman, or a design that fits with your wedding theme.\nLook at greeting card websites and wedding websites for examples of card designs. Many will allow you to order cards in a design you like and customize lettering and color schemes.\nIf you haven’t finalized a date but want to nail down your wedding party, let them know what time of year you’re thinking. Get back to them about a specific day as soon as you determine one. <img> ", "Host an event and surprise your groomsmen. If possible, gather all the gentlemen you’re hoping will be your groomsmen and break the news in a celebratory manner. For instance, invite them over for a pot of your world-famous chili and a couple of hands of poker.\nBefore they arrive, relabel a few bottles of beer with customized “Groomsman” labels and set them in each spot at the table with a koozie covering the label.\nOnce everyone sits down, propose a toast and have everyone remove the koozies simultaneously.\nVerbalize your excitement by saying something like, \"It'd really mean a lot to have you guys as my groomsmen.\" <img> Go the romantic route. It's not everyday you get to buy your friends roses. If they'll appreciate the humor or are just into flowers, consider sending a bouquet with a card saying something like, \"Alexander.... be my groomsman?\" Even better, send the bouquet to their home or, if you know they'd be okay with it, to their place of work. <img> Make a prank out of it. If your potential groomsmen are all over the country and you’ll be sending out snail mail requests, consider going the April Fool’s route. For instance, write, “Notice of Mandatory Attendance” on a formal looking envelope. This may get them scratching their heads as they nervously open your request, only to be relieved by the exciting content.\nAnother idea: Send a plain envelope that reads “Important Instructions” on the exterior. Inside, include directions on how to tie a tie, as well as your folded request.\nWhatever you do, make sure the letter doesn’t look like spam. Hand-write their address. You don’t want them accidentally throwing it away! <img> ", "Make custom booze-themed labels. There are various websites that will help you design and order custom beer or liquor bottle labels. You can also design, print, and cut your own. Affix these directly to individual beer bottles with sticker paper, or hang more traditional cards around the necks of your groomsmen’ favorite liquor bottles.\nEither present these gifts in person or send them in the mail. They can be even be used to break the news, or as a follow-up to an in-person conversation.\nFor instance, you might customize labels that look like name tags with text like \"Groomsman Tucker.\" <img> Give your groomsmen something to wear on your big day. Part of accepting the gig as your groomsman is agreeing to wear whatever outfit you want them to wear at your wedding. If you so happen to have style-minded friends, they may appreciate a customized something-or-other that will fit with the suits you’ve chosen.\nFor instance, get your buddies bow ties that reflect each of their individual styles. Get that wannabe lumberjack buddy a plaid bow tie and your alma mater’s biggest fan a bow tie with the team mascot on it. <img> Include a long-lasting customized gift. While booze and a cigar are the traditional groomsman gifts, consider getting something a bit longer-lasting to include with your groomsman requests. For instance, a simple but classy tie clip or a lighter monogrammed a buddy’s initials is something they’ll likely keep for the rest of their lives.\nCufflinks are a classic example, and can be tailored to each groomsman.\nFor instance, have custom-made cuff links with your favorite picture of your buddy inset, or an inscription of an inside joke between the two of you. <img> Acknowledge financial costs if necessary. Getting down to brass tacks: it costs money to be a groomsman. Tux rental alone can be expensive, not to mention peripheral costs like a wedding gift, travel costs, and a potential bachelor party. In situations where you know cost may be a factor regarding someone’s ability to be your groomsman, don’t ignore the issue.\nIf you have a friend that may not be able to afford being your groomsman but you’d like them to be, considering covering the cost yourself. <img> " ]

[ "Make sure your vehicle requires commercial registration. The definition of a commercial vehicle may vary from one state, province, or jurisdiction to another. Check with your local DMV, transit authority, or other agency in charge of vehicle registrations to find out if you need to register your vehicle commercially.\nIn Alaska, for example, a commercial vehicle is any vehicle that is registered in the name of a business or company.\nYour vehicle’s registration status may also depend on what you use it for (such as transporting goods or people for business purposes) and how big the vehicle is (e.g., over 8,000 lbs/3,629 kg).\nYour state, province, or jurisdiction may have a variety of different registration requirements depending on the nature of your vehicle. For example, a taxi must be registered differently from a limousine in New Jersey. <img> Apply for a USDOT number, if needed. In the US, many types of commercial vehicles need a USDOT or local DOT number before you can register and operate them. If your vehicle meets the requirements of the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) and you plan to use it across state boundaries, you will need a USDOT number. If your vehicle will only operate within your state, you may only need a local DOT number, depending on your state’s laws.\nYou can apply for a DOT number at the FMCSA website here: https://portal.fmcsa.dot.gov/UrsRegistrationWizard/\n\nCheck this page to determine whether you need a USDOT or local DOT number: https://www.fmcsa.dot.gov/registration/do-i-need-usdot-number <img> Complete a registration form. You may be able to register online through your DMV website, or you may have to go to your local DMV office and ask for the appropriate form(s). Depending on where you are registering the vehicle, the registration form may be combined with a title form. If you don’t already have a title to the vehicle, you’ll need to apply for one.\nIndicate on the form that you are registering a commercial vehicle, and provide any applicable information.\nYou may need to provide information such as your DOT number (if applicable), the tax ID associated with your DOT number, and the size and type of vehicle you are registering. <img> Present additional documents, if needed. Check your form or ask at your DMV if any other supporting documents are needed. These may include your title, proof of identification, and insurance information.\nIf you live in the U.S. and your vehicle weighs over 55,000 lbs (24,948 kg), you will need to fill out and attach a Heavy Highway Vehicle Use tax form (IRS form 2290). <img> Pay any required application fees. Check with your local DMV or tag office to find out about any fees you need to pay, and what payment methods they accept. In addition to the basic fee for registering your vehicle, you may be required to pay additional fees based on the gross weight at which you plan to operate your vehicle.\nFor example, in Arizona, gross weight fees range between $7.50 (for a vehicle up to 8,000 lbs) and $918 (75,001-80,000 lbs). <img> ", "Find out if you need to apply for Unified Carrier Registration. UCR is a federally mandated program in the U.S. You will need to register if you operate 1 or more trucks or buses that travel across state or international lines for business purposes. <img> Register online or fill out a registration form. To register with the UCR, you will need to fill out an application form. You can obtain a print or PDF form from your local DMV or equivalent agency, or complete the process online here: https://www.ucr.gov/ \nYou will need to provide your USDOT number, information about your business, and information about the types and number of vehicles you will be operating. <img> Pay your UCR registration fee. The fee is based on how many vehicles you are operating. You can pay online through the UCR website when you register, or submit a payment by mail to your local DMV or equivalent agency.\nFees range from $69 (for 0-2 vehicles) to $6,820 (for 101-1000 vehicles). If you own a fleet of more than 1000 vehicles, the fee increases drastically to $66,597. <img> ", "Contact your base jurisdiction about registration requirements. The International Registration Plan (IRP) is an international agreement between the U.S. states, the District of Columbia, and Canada. IRP registration is required if you want to operate a commercial vehicle across multiple states or between Canada and the U.S.\nUse the IRP directory to find the contact information for the IRP office in your base jurisdiction: https://www.irponline.org/search/custom.asp?id=381\n\nIn addition to filling out an application form, you may need to provide a variety of supporting documents, such as proofs of residency, relevant tax forms, proof of insurance, your DOT number, and a local business license. <img> Pay any necessary registration fees. Your registration fees will vary based on an array of factors, including your base jurisdiction, the distance you will be driving your vehicle, the size and age of the vehicle, any taxes that may apply to your vehicle, and so on. Check with your base jurisdiction to find out how much you must pay, and what payment methods they accept.\nYou can estimate your registration fees using the IRP’s Celtic Fee Estimator: https://www.irponline.org/page/FeeEstimator <img> Check with your base jurisdiction about cross-border requirements. If you are planning to use your vehicle to travel between the U.S. and Canada for business reasons, your base jurisdiction may have additional registration requirements. Check with your local IRP office to find out what further documents or registration steps may be needed. <img> ", "Find out if your vehicle needs IFTA registration. The IFTA, or International Fuel Tax Agreement, governs the reporting of fuel use by carriers that operate between member jurisdictions. IFTA operates in the Canadian Provinces and all of the U.S. states except Hawaii and Alaska. You will need to register for IFTA if your vehicle operates between 2 or more participating jurisdictions and:\nHas 2 axles and a gross registered weight of more than 26,000 lbs (11,797 kg)\nHas 3 or more axles, regardless of gross weight\nIs used in combination with other vehicles that have a combined gross registered weight of more than 26,000 lbs (11,797 kg) <img> Complete your International Registration Plan application first. Most vehicles requiring IFTA registration will also require IRP registration. You will likely need to either complete your IRP application first, or submit both applications at the same time. \nSome jurisdictions may offer a combined application form. <img> Fill out an IFTA registration form in your base jurisdiction. Visit your local DMV, department of transportation, or equivalent agency to get the appropriate application form. Registration fees for IFTA membership are typically quite small (e.g., $10 in California). You may be required to provide information such as:\nThe nature of your vehicle ownership (e.g., individual, corporate, or as part of a general partnership)\nYour previous history of IFTA and IRP membership\nThe type(s) of fuel your vehicle uses\nYour DOT number\nYour vehicle registration number <img> Display your IFTA decals on your vehicle. Once your IFTA application is accepted, you will receive decals to affix to any registered vehicles.

[ "Start with a full-sized sheet of duct board. Standard duct board comes in sheets that are typically 48 inches (120 cm) wide by 96 inches (240 cm) long. On one side of the sheet is a thick layer of fiberglass insulation. On the other is a thin foil backing which serves as the outside of the duct.\nDuct board is manufactured in three different thicknesses: 1 inch (2.5 cm), 1.5 inches (3.8 cm), and 2 inches (5.1 cm). The thickness of the board you use will be determined by the type of installation you’re performing. <img> Acquire a set of color-coded duct knives. Unlike conventional cutting tools, duct knives feature specially-shaped blades that are designed to cut male and female flaps into the surface of duct board. To cut folding ductwork, you’ll need either a red-handled or orange-handled knife, as well as a gray-handled knife and separate utility knife for fashioning the edge flaps.\nA red-handled duct knife slices a V-shaped groove into the insulation so that the individual sections can be folded neatly over on themselves with no wasted space at the corners. An orange-handled knife creates an interlocking “shiplap” edge.\nWhen folded, these grooves create an airtight seal that safeguards against air leaks, heat or cool air loss, moisture drips, and other airflow complications. <img> Do your measuring with a guide square. The longer arm of the L-shaped tool is 48 inches (120 cm) long, and will lay directly across the width of the duct board, which is also 48 inches (120 cm). The shorter arm is 24 inches (61 cm) long, and is used to gauge the width of each individual panel.\nAlways position the guide square so that the longer vertical arm is on the right. It will serve as a straight edge when you begin cutting. <img> ", "Set the duct board on a flat surface. Lay the sheet widthwise across an elevated work surface, such as a woodworking platform or crafting table. The female edge of the duct board (the notched groove through which the colored insulation is visible) should be pointed towards you.\nMake sure the side with the foil backing is facing down. When working with duct board, you’ll be making your measurements and cuts to the inside of the duct.\nFor best results, use a tilting table or some other surface that will give you a little elevation on one side. This will make it easier to guide the duct knives all the way through the opposite end of the duct board. <img> Cut a closure joint rabbet on the lefthand side of the board. Line up the gray duct knife with the far edge and use it to score the insulation from bottom to top. Pull away the trimmed insulation, trimming rough spots with a utility knife as needed. This will leave a shiplap edge that will intersect with the staple flap on the opposite end of the board when it comes time to assemble the duct.\nThe metal blade guard on the gray duct knife will wrap around the outer edge of the board and rest flat against your work surface. <img> Cut a 1.5 inches (3.8 cm) wide staple flap into the righthand edge of the board. Measure the board from the end with your guide square or a straight edge, then use a utility knife to score and remove the fiberglass insulation and create a loose flap. This section can later be fastened to the top of the folded duct to secure it.\nBe careful not to cut through the foil backing, or you’ll have no way of conjoining the top and side panels.\nThe staple flap will form a connection with the closure joint you just cut with the gray duct knife. <img> ", "Measure and mark the width of each panel. Refer to your project specifications to determine the height and width of the completed duct. Then, take a white marking pen and draw a line on each vertical plane where you’ll be cutting a groove. It will be necessary to make 3 separate cuts to create 4 individual panels, which you’ll then fold into a square or rectangular duct.\nOnce they’ve been folded, the first and third panels will form the sides of the duct, while the second and fourth panels will serve as the top and bottom.\nYou’ll need to add a few extra inches to the width of each panel in order for them to align properly. 1 inch (2.5 cm) duct board will require an additional 1.75 inches (4.4 cm), 1.5 inches (3.8 cm) duct board will need 2.75 inches (7.0 cm), and 2 inches (5.1 cm) duct board calls for 3.75 inches (9.5 cm). <img> Line up the guide square with the line for the first cut. Double check the width of the first panel by referring to the measurements on the shorter arm of the square. Place the longer arm to the left side of the mark so you can use it as a straight edge when scoring the board. <img> Use the red or orange-handled duct knife to make your first cut. Center the duct knife on the line indicating where the first cut should be made. Slide the knife up through the duct board, being careful to keep its path perfectly straight. When you reach the far end of the board, hold the knife level and push it until it comes free of the insulation.\nPress the lefthand side of the knife up against the outer edge of the guide square. It will help guide the movement of the knife to ensure that every cut is straight and precise.\nIt can help to use a guide square with some grip on the backside. That way, you won’t have to press down as hard to hold it in place or worry about it slipping as you move the duct knife along. <img> Adjust the guide square and make the second cut. Slide the guide square down the board and line it up with the second mark. Run the duct knife through the insulation from end to end. The width of this panel will correspond to the bottom of the completed duct.\nIf you’re using an orange-handled duct knife to cut shiplap edges, you’ll need to turn the blade around the other way when making the second cut to allow the corner folds to fit into place properly.\nRemember to start each cut on the righthand side of the guide square to keep them consistent. <img> Make the third and final cut. Set the guide square to the left of the third marking line you traced earlier. Score the third groove just as you did the first two, in a straight line from the bottom of the board to the top. When you’re finished, you’ll have 2 sets of panels with the same dimensions—the first and third, and the second and fourth.\nBe sure to turn orange-handled knives back around (the way you were holding them originally) before making the final pass. <img> " ]

[ "Understand the stages of sleep. There are four stages of sleep, with the fourth and final stage being REM sleep. In order to get more REM sleep, you need to gradually allow your mind and body to go through the first three stages of sleep. Maintaining a regular sleep schedule and healthy sleep habits will help you do this.\nStage N1: This is when you are transitioning into sleep and lasts about five minutes. Your eyes will move slower under your eyelids, and your muscle activity will slow down but you can be easily awakened by a noise or a sound.\nStage N2: This is the first stage of true sleep and lasts 10–25 minutes. Your eye movement will stop completely, your heart rate will slow and your body temperature will decrease.\nStage N3: This is the beginning of deep sleep, during which you are hard to wake up and if you are woken up, you will often feel groggy or disoriented for a few minutes. In this stage, your brain waves are very slow and blood flow is directed away from your brain to your muscles, which restores physical energy in your body.\nStage N4: The final stage of sleep is REM sleep, or dream sleeping. This occurs about 70 to 90 minutes after falling asleep. You will likely experience rapid eye movement, shallow breathing, and your heart rate and blood pressure may increase. During this stage, your arms and legs are also paralyzed.\nKeep in mind that during the night, your sleep follows a pattern, moving back and forth between deep sleep and REM sleep. Each cycle lasts about 90 minutes and repeats four to six times during the night. As the night progresses, the amount of time you spend in each stage changes. Most deep sleep occurs in the first half of the night. Later in the night your REM sleep stages become longer. <img> Maintain a regular sleep schedule. Create a sleep schedule where you wake up and go to sleep at the same time everyday, even on weekends or days off. Sleep requirements vary from person to person, but on average, you should be getting between seven and nine hours of sleep. Having a regular sleep schedule will allow you to experience REM sleep more often, as you will cycle between the stages of sleep several times throughout the night during a full seven to nine hour sleep\nSome people think getting just one less hour of sleep won’t affect their daily functioning or that they can make up for lack of sleep on the weekend or a day off, but unfortunately it doesn't work that way. Any changes or shifts in your regular sleep schedule will only have a negative effect on your sleeping habits and could lead to less deep sleep or REM sleep.\nIt’s a myth that your body adjusts quickly to different sleep schedules. While most people can reset their biological clock, this can only be done by timed cues, and even then, only by one to two hours per day at best. Keep in mind it can take more than a week for your body’s internal clock to adjust to traveling across several time zones or to switching to the night shift. <img> Turn off all electronics and distractions a few hours before bed. Shut off your television, smartphone, tablet, and computer or, even better, keep all electronics out of your bedroom completely. The type of light these screens emit can stimulate your brain, suppress the production of melatonin (which encourages REM sleep), and interfere with your body’s internal clock.\nAnother option is to shut down your computer on a schedule. This will automatically sleep your machine and prevent you from working on your computer too late or too close to your bedtime. There are sleep features on both PCs and Macs that you can activate. As well, if you want your computer to be ready to go in the morning, once you wake up, you can schedule a startup time too. <img> Keep your bedroom dark, cool, and quiet. Use heavy curtains or shades to block the light from windows. Cover any electronic displays, like tvs or computers so the light does not glow in the room. You can also use a sleep mask to cover your eyes and create a dark space that will help you sleep.\nIf you have difficulty sleeping due to loud noises outside your window or a loud sleep partner, consider investing in good earplugs, or a noise machine. <img> Don’t consume caffeine or alcohol four to six hours before your bedtime. About half the caffeine you consume at 7 pm is still in your body at 11 pm. Caffeine is a known stimulant that can suppress your REM sleep and can be found in coffee, chocolate, soft drinks, non-herbal teas, diet drugs, and some pain relievers. Limit how many cups of coffee you have several hours before bed, or try to eliminate caffeine from your diet all together.\nAlcohol also prevents deep sleep and REM sleep. It will keep you in the lighter stages of sleep, causing you to possibly wake up easily and have a harder time falling back asleep. Avoid consuming alcohol several hours before bed to improve your chances of having REM sleep. <img> Try to go to bed sleep 30 minutes earlier than usual. Your REM sleep stages are longer in the morning, so try to prolong your REM sleep by adding an extra 30 minutes of sleep. Adjust your bedtime so you go to sleep 30 minutes earlier than usual and then maintain this adjustment in your sleep schedule by doing this every night.\nAlways be consistent with adjustments to your sleep schedule, as you will need to get enough of each stage of sleep, especially deep sleep, to improve your REM sleep. If you do not get enough deep sleep at night, your body may try to make up for it the next night, thereby reducing the amount of REM sleep you experience. <img> ", "Ask your doctor about melatonin for improved REM sleep. Recent studies have shown that taking melatonin supplements, about 3 mg a day, can increase your REM sleep and help you stay in the REM stage of your sleep cycling for a longer period of time. Your doctor can recommend a melatonin supplement, usually in pill form, as well as the prescribed dosage for your body type.\nMelatonin is also recommended for the elderly and people who work late shifts at night, as it can help to normalize your sleep cycle and be beneficial for your health overall. <img> Be wary of over-the-counter medications that can lead to suppressed REM sleep. Many of the side effects of these drugs can have adverse effects on your sleep patterns and daytime alertness. Common medications that can disturb your REM sleep include:\nNasal decongestants.\nAspirin and other headache medications.\nPain relievers that contain caffeine.\nCold and allergy medications containing an antihistamine.\nCertain diet pills and antidepressants.\nIf you are taking any of these medications, try to reduce your dosage. Or research alternative methods to treat these issues so you can stop taking these over-the-counter medications. <img> Commit to exercising at least 20 to 30 minutes a day. Daily exercise is proven to help people sleep and can help you stay in the REM stage of sleep longer. But a workout too close to bedtime might interfere with your sleep schedule. Try to get daily exercise about five to six hours before bedtime. <img> " ]

[ "Recognize when the person is lying. If you know what to look for, it's not hard to tell when someone is lying to you. Knowing how to recognize when the person is trying to deceive you can clue you in to how serious the issue is. Get to know how the person looks and acts in a normal, non-stressful situation, and contrast this with how they act when you think they may be lying. After a while you should be able to read the person's body language well enough to have a grasp on when they're not telling the truth.\nCheck out the way the person acts when you ask their birth date or hometown. Now compare that behavior to how the person acts when you ask a more difficult question, like whether they slept with your boyfriend or fudged numbers on a work document. If the person is telling the truth, they shouldn't show signs of stress when answering the more difficult questions.\nForget what you've heard about lack of eye contact being an indication that someone is lying; in fact, many liars deliberately make eye contact because of this myth.\nWhen people lie they unconsciously exhibit other physical signs of stress. Look for these signs:\nA fake smile that engages only the mouth, not the eyes.\nA higher-pitched voice than normal.\n\nDilated pupils.\nVery slow blink rate (and rapid blink rate when the lie is over).\n\nAntsy foot movements, like toe-tapping or shuffling.\n\nFace touching, like repeatedly covering the mouth, eyes or nose. <img> Look for patterns in the person's lies. Many people lie about a few subjects that make them extremely uncomfortable - usually their past bad behavior or something that makes them embarrassed. If the person in question tends to consistently lie when asked about a certain topic, you may just want to back off and stop pressing that particular issue. However, if the person's lies seem to have no rhyme or reason, with no pattern you can make out, you've got a bigger problem on your hands.\nIf someone lies every time you ask them about why their father is always absent, or why they never finished high school, or why they refuse to speak to a certain person, the answers to those questions might well be classified as none of your business, anyway. Unless you're in a committed relationship with someone, you aren't entitled to knowing every detail about someone's life.\nIf, on the other, hand the person seems to tell lies just for the heck of it, even when asked questions about seemingly unimportant topics, they might be a compulsive liar. Since their lying doesn't follow a pattern, it will be a lot harder to sympathize with the person's intentions for hiding the truth. <img> Determine whether the person's lies are harmful. It never feels good to be told a lie, but some lies are more harmful than others. Before you stage an intervention, figure out how the lies are affecting the liar, you, and other people who may be involved.\nIs the person merely protecting themselves from saying too much? Maybe it's not that big a deal.\nIs the person lying to manipulate other people? Do people make decisions based on what the person says, not realizing they've been lied to? This is a problem that needs to be addressed.\nIs the person lying to get away with bad behavior, like stealing, cheating or hurting someone? This behavior has a severely negative effect. <img> See if the person gets pleasure from lying. Some people actually enjoy the act of lying more than they enjoy telling the truth. It can be like an addiction, evoking a small high each time a lie is told. Brazen liars who have gotten away with lying for a long time might start to lie as a way of life, rather than out of perceived necessity. Compulsive liars are tough to crack, since they need to treat lying like any other addiction. <img> Look for signs the person is a pathological liar. Pathological liars tell exaggerated lies that are so far from the truth that they're often glaringly obvious. They often believe the lies they tell, and they'll tell you a completely absurd story with a poker face so earnest that you can't help but take it as truth. Pathological liars have a psychological disorder. Unfortunately, because they think they're telling the truth, you won't be able to talk them out of lying. Still, it's worth confronting them to determine whether a wake-up call will set them on the path to getting help. <img> ", "Document instances of lying. Write down each instance of lying that you notice, with details that explain why you believe it's a lie. Do some research so you have evidence that the person was lying, rather than just going on a hunch you have. You want to be able to show the liar that you know without a doubt that they were being deceitful.\nIf you can collect hard evidence, such as emails or paperwork that contradicts what the person said, it'll make the confrontation that much easier.\nIf you're relying on other people to call out the lie, try to get more than one person's word. <img> Talk to the person privately. Confronting someone on their bad behavior in public is pretty cold, and isn't likely to help that person change. It's better to discuss the matter in private, so feelings of shame and embarrassment don't escalate the matter to a breaking point. Calmly tell the person that you believe they lied. Spell out the specific lie or lies you want to discuss.\nDon't call the person a liar. Again, it's better to take a gentle course at first. In most cases the person will be so embarrassed at being found out that they will stop lying. <img> Give the liar a chance to explain the lie. Watch the person's body language carefully for more signs that they are lying. Listen to the person's excuse. If they admit to the lie and apologize, you may not need to take the confrontation much further. Discuss the matter fully and end the conversation by telling the person that you hope it doesn't happen again. <img> Show your evidence that a lie was told. If the person gets defensive, makes excuses, or continues lying during the confrontation, it's time to bring out the evidence. Show the person the emails, papers, or other evidence you collected that definitely proves they lied to you. At this point you've cornered the liar, and they will probably either remain silent or begin to apologize. <img> Explain that your trust has been lost. This is a difficult thing to hear, and the person in question will probably feel upset when you tell them that you no longer believe a word they say. Explain that you can't help but be hyperaware that the person might lie, and that until they demonstrate a commitment to the truth over a prolonged period of time, your trust will still be broken.\nMost people will be deeply embarrassed by this, and hopefully will make a commitment to you to tell the truth from now on.\nCompulsive liars may admit that they have an addiction, and ask you for help in stopping their bad habit. You may have to confront them over and over again before they stop lying for good; for some, it will be a never-ending battle.\nPathological liars and sociopaths are not going to be swayed by a confrontation. For them, lying is an essential part of their personality. <img> Recommend psychological treatment if necessary. Tell the person that excessive or compulsive lying is something that can be treated in therapy. Encourage the person to seek outside help before they lose everyone's trust. Eventually, liars are usually exposed - and as a consequence, they can lose their jobs, ruin relationships, and hurt their chances for living a more honest lifestyle. <img> ", "Understand it might take awhile for the liar to stop. People who have made a habit of lying can't usually break it right away. Don't be surprised if you catch the person in a lie again at some point in the future. Depending on your relationship to the liar, you may or may not want to continue helping them stop by repeating the cycle of gathering evidence, confronting the liar, and informing them that trust has been broken. <img> Know you don't have the power to change another's behavior. Ultimately, you can't know what's going on in someone else's head. If a person wants to stop lying, they will have to make that commitment and stick to it. If a person doesn't want to stop, there's absolutely nothing you can do about that. <img> Protect yourself from being harmed by the liar. Dealing with a liar can be emotionally exhausting. Just when you think trust has been restored, you might catch the person in the act again, and be forced to start all over. It's important to take time away from the person and spend time with people you know you can trust. You might also consider seeking counseling for help dealing with the mixed emotions that come with being close to a liar.\nDon't get wrapped up in the person's lies. Make sure you always have a firm grasp on the truth. Good liars are believable, and it's important to be able to tell the truth from fantasy.\nCut the person off if it gets out of hand. Don't let yourself get too sucked in. At a certain point, you might need to cut ties and let go of a toxic relationship. After you've done everything you can, break it off and start healing. <img> " ]

[ "Know how to use dual-entry accounting. Dual-entry (also called double entry) accounting is a fundamental process of modern bookkeeping. It makes sure that every transaction is recorded in the two (or more) accounts that it affects. In addition, it ensures that the sum of these entries is $0 under the equation Assets=Liabilities + Shareholders' Equity. An understanding of dual-entry accounting is essential to accounting for rent-free periods properly.\nFor example, a simple cash sale would be recorded as a debit to the cash account (an asset account) and an equal credit to revenue (an equity account). If the item sold is a product, there would also be a credit to Inventory and a debit to the Cost of Goods Sold account. <img> Understand the amortization process. Amortization is a way of spreading the cost of an intangible asset across the life of that asset. It works much like depreciation does for tangible assets. The cost of the asset is split up evenly over the life of that asset and that amount is recorded as an expense each year. Amortization allows a business owner to spread the cost of an asset out so that the revenue produced by the asset and the cost of the asset are recorded at the same time. <img> Familiarize yourself with the principle underlying the treatment of free rent periods. A free rent period is a type of lease incentive that has a discrete cash value. For example, 2 months of free rent in a $1000/month space has a value of $2000. Any lease incentive of this type must be amortized over the life of the lease on a straight-line basis. This is done by either deferring or accruing rent expenses and revenues as appropriate. <img> Make sure that the needed accounts are set up. By offering or entering into this type of agreement, both the lessor and lessee will need accounts specific to recording this type of transaction. On the lessor's side, they will need a Rent Revenue account (which they likely already have) and a rent receivable account for recording the rent going unpaid during the rent-free period and then record payments during the subsequent rent period. \nThe lessee would need two similar but opposite accounts: Rent Expense and Rent Payable. <img> ", "Make sure you understand the terms of the lease. Before making any calculations or journal entries, you should lay out the terms of the lease. For example, consider an agreement by which the lessor rents an office space to the lessee for 1 year in exchange for a $1000 rent payment each month. As an incentive, the first 2 months of rent are waived.\nAs the lessee, you will have to make sure that any rent expenses from a rent-free period are not simply postponed to a later point in the lease. Landlords often use the term \"rent-free\" to refer to this situation and a truly rent-free setup. <img> Determine the average rent payment made per month. Revenues and expenses associated with the lease must be spread evenly over the lease term, regardless of when the cash is transferred. Adding together all the rent payments in the example above yields 10 * $1000, or $10,000. Therefore, the average monthly rent is $10,000 / 12, or $833. This amount is used as the monthly revenue or expense. <img> Find the amount of the rent receivable/payable account paid down each month. Each month, a set amount of rent will be directed towards paying down the value of the rent-free period expense. This amount will be the amount of the rent payment minus the average monthly rent over the lease period.\nIn the example, this would be $1,000 - $833, or $167. For the lessee, this would be the amount recorded as a contribution to rent payable each month. <img> ", "Record the journal entry to recognize the first month's payment. In the example above, the first month sees no cash changing hands, but revenues and expenses must still be recognized by the two parties through entries in the general journal.\nThe lessor would debit Rent Receivable for $833 and credit Rent Revenue for $833. Rent Receivable is an asset account used to recognize the accrual of rent payments due.\nThe lessee would debit Rent Expense for $833 and credit Rent Payable for $833. Rent Payable is a liability account used to recognize the accrual of rent payments owed. <img> Record the journal entries for the second month. The second month's entries are the same for both parties, and cash has still not changed hands. Therefore, the same entries will made as in the first month.\nThe account balances of Rent Revenue and Rent Payable are now $1666 each. This balance will be drawn gradually down to 0 over the remainder of the lease.\nContinue this process for the entirety of the rent-free period. <img> Record the journal entries to recognize each subsequent payment. At the end of each month, a journal entry is needed to record the rent payment and adjust the accrual balances. These entries serve to amortize the rent receivable/payable accounts by the same amount each month until they reach a $0 balance.\nIn the example, the lessor would debit Cash for $1000 to reflect the cash receipt. They would credit Rent Revenue for $833 and credit Rent Receivable for $167 to begin drawing down its balance.\nThe lessee would debit Rent Expense for $833 and debit Rent Payable for $167 to begin drawing down its balance. They would credit Cash for $1000 to recognize the cash disbursement.\nThese entries will be identical each month for the remainder of the lease. Once the final entry is made, the Rent Payable and Rent Receivable accounts will have a balance of $0. <img> " ]

[ "Determine what you will juice. A centrifugal juicer is an excellent choice for juicing most vegetables, and almost any fruit. Most centrifugal juices can juice spinach or other greens, but they are not very efficient at doing so. Additionally, most centrifugal juicers cannot juice wheatgrass. If you plan use primarily juicy fruits and veggies, then a centrifugal juicer may be a great choice for you. <img> Consider the price. Centrifugal juicers are very reasonably priced. This is the primary benefit of a centrifugal juicer (over the more high-end masticating juicers). Centrifugal juicers start for as little as $20, but they may run as expensive as $200. Higher end models can typically handle whole pieces of produce, and yield more juice. Look for a model that fits your budget. <img> Think about juicing speed. Centrifugal juicers work fast. These speedy machines are excellent for preparing yourself a quick glass of fresh juice each morning. If juicing is something you plan to do often, and if you are short on time, a fast-moving centrifugal model may be right for you. <img> Look for easy cleaning. The worst part about making juice is cleaning the juicer. Fortunately, with a centrifugal juicer (unlike with most masticating models), the cleaning can be easy! Look for a model that easily snaps apart and rinses clean with minimal effort.\nA good choice is the Hamilton Beach Big Mouth Juicer.\nAny of the Breville models are also notable easy to clean. <img> Decide if you can handle some noise. One drawback to centrifugal juicers is that they tend toward the noisier side. The noise produced by the average centrifugal juicer is on par with a typical blender, food processor, or coffee grinder. Fortunately, centrifugal juicers are much faster than other models, so your juicing time, noisy though it may be, will fly right by.", "Think about your health. If your primary reason for wanting to juice is better health, then a masticating juicer is probably the best choice for you. Sometimes called “cold press” or “slow” juicers, masticating juicers use a low rpm motor which best retains the nutritional value of your fruits, veggies, and greens. <img> Decide if you want to juice greens. Although some higher-end centrifugal juicers can tackle leafy greens (like spinach or kale), the process is extremely inefficient. If you plan to juice a lot of greens, your best bet is a masticating juicer. This slower, low rpm process extracts the most juice from leafy greens. <img> Determine if you’d like to juice wheatgrass. Whereas centrifugal juicers can technically juice leafy greens (albeit inefficiently), they definitely can’t take on wheatgrass. If wheatgrass is something you’d like to include in your juice regimen, you will need a masticating juicer. <img> Factor in a reduction in food waste. The biggest drawback to masticating juicers is almost certainly the price. (The typical masticating model will run you upwards of $200.) However, something else to keep in mind when considering the price is the fact that a masticating juicer will give you more bang for your buck (or more juice for your carrot). If you use your juicer often enough, you will recuperate your money over time. <img> Store your juice longer. Because of the low rpm process used by masticating juicers, very little heat is introduced into the juice. As a result, you can store your fresh juices for up to 48 hours, without losing any of the nutritional value. (Unlike juice produced by centrifugal models, which begins losing nutritional value right away.) This can be a huge perk, and in some ways makes up for the time lost on the slower juicing process. <img> Make pasta or baby food. Many masticating juicers offer extra features. (Sometimes these are included, but other times they cost extra). This may include accessories you can use to mince, grind, and puree. This can enable you to make fresh pasta, homemade baby food, pesto, or other foods. <img> ", "Determine your budget. Citrus juicers vary widely in price, with simple hand juicers ranging from $5 to $20, manual presses running about $50, and electric citrus juicers running anywhere from $20 to $150. Knowing how much you are willing to spend can help you determine what type of citrus juicer to choose. <img> Consider a hand juicer for value and ease of use. Certainly the simplest and most cost-effective option when it comes to orange juice is a good-old hand juicer. These non-electronic, plastic or metal kitchen tools are perfect if you only need to make a glass or two of juice. They take up almost no space in your kitchen; they are cheap and easy to clean. Many models (such as the ChefVantage Citrus Juicer) come with a measuring cup or pitcher built-in. <img> Think about a manual press for efficiency and durability. Take a peak inside any gourmet kitchen, and you will likely find a manual citrus press. These durable, often stainless steel tools are efficient at extracting the juices from lemons, oranges, or other citrus fruits. These non-electronic devices are also aesthetically pleasing; a manual citrus press looks great on your counter top. <img> Opt for an electric citrus juicer for speed. Most electric citrus juicers are sort of like hybrids of centrifugal juicers and manual citrus presses. You place half of your citrus fruit onto a ribbed reamer and press down, activating a motor which causes a spinning motion. This is an extremely quick and effective method for juicing citrus and results in a delicious, high-quality juice. <img> Look for a model with a pulp-selection feature. If you’ve ever purchased orange juice from the store, you probably know that there are a lot of different preferences when it comes to pulp. You can aim to satisfy the needs of everyone in your household by selecting an electric juicer with a pulp-selection feature.

[ "Relationships are defined by patterns, so it's important to identify them. Try to pinpoint when you started feeling drained so you can determine what caused it. Set a time to speak to your partner in a place that feels safe for both of you. Express your feelings, observations, and worries clearly, without placing blame on either you or your significant other. Remember, they'll have their own ideas too, so be prepared to listen with patience and understanding.\nTry to keep the discussion's focus on the relationship's themes, instead of getting into the back and forth of a specific fight.\nWhen you and your partner identify an ongoing issue together, make sure the solution you decide on works for both of you. <img> ", "To bring your best self into the relationship, prioritize your needs. A draining relationship can steal your time and energy, so practice self-care to feel replenished. By making sure you feel your best, you’ll be able to bring more patience, understanding, and effort into your relationship.\nPrioritize getting enough sleep.\nTake time each week to enjoy the things you love to do.\nTry to take the time to plan healthy, balanced meals. <img> ", "In a healthy relationship, both partners should get back what they give. In an emotionally draining relationship, though, you might be investing tons of effort without actually having your basic needs met. Before either of you can take care of each other's needs, you need to communicate them with each other.\nCome up with a list of basic requirements that you need in order to be happy in the relationship.\nThis may be loyalty, a certain level of physical affection, mutual independence, and maybe a bit of reassurance.\nEncourage your partner to come up with their own list.\nShare your lists with each other. Together, you can brainstorm how to meet each other's needs in an emotionally sustainable way.\nThis way, the two of you are more likely to put in effort that has positive effects on the relationship. <img> ", "At the end of the day, a draining relationship needs fixing on both sides. If during a fight, you're both only focused on your own individual interests, it’s going to be really tough to get things resolved. When you’re fighting or falling into a negative pattern, try to center your relationship’s goals first. Encourage your partner to do the same.\nIf you’re fighting about who will unload the dishwasher, don’t think of your interests as competing.\nOne of you might insist that their day was more tiring, and so they shouldn’t have to. The other might say that they did it last time, so they shouldn’t have to.\nCombine your interests and focus on compromise. For instance, you could say, “The dishwasher needs to be unloaded regardless. I get you’re tired, so I’ll do it. But next time, I’d like you to, so we’re sharing an equal load.” <img> ", "Communication is the key to fixing tough relationships. When the two of you really want to be great for each other, sometimes the only actual barrier to that goal is the misunderstanding of needs and expectations. To start a conversation about both partners’ perceptions of your relationship, try this exercise below.\nConsider six core parts of your relationship: communication, connection, investment, enjoyment, growth, trust.\nYou and your partner should take time to reflect. Then, assign each category a score, 1-10, depending on how well your relationship does in that area.\nUse your scores' similarities and differences to start a conversation about your relationship's strengths and weaknesses.\nCommit to working on one area of weakness each week and check in on how you both feel you did. <img> ", "Mismatched attachment styles can cause emotional drain. Attachment styles can be secure, anxious, or avoidant. Combinations of two of the three styles exist as well, though they’re uncommon. A person’s attachment style comes from their experiences early in life, but they can be altered with therapy and hard work.\nSecure attachment style refers to an individual’s ability to feel connected to partners, secure in those connections, and still capable of independence.\nAnxious attachment styles indicate a person’s insecurity and emotional hunger in relationships. They can become clingy, demanding, or possessive.\nAvoidant attachment styles refer to a fear of closeness with their partners. They ignore relationships' significance, shut down emotionally, and avoid intimacy.\nOther combinations exist, and you can identify your style through online quizzes, research, and reflection.\nAttachment styles can be excellent tools to talk about patterns in your relationship. They can also help you reflect on your own needs. <img> ", "If you can avoid big arguments, you both save emotional energy. Constant spats don't need to be the end of the world, but if you can't find a way to de-escalate your arguments, that could cause major emotional drain. If every little disagreement ends up being a giant, hurtful argument, both of you will end up feeling deflated. Try out these helpful tips and tricks below to defuse your fights.\nUse humor. When a fight pops up, try using a little silliness to keep things light.\nFor example, if you do an impression that makes your partner laugh, respond to a question in that voice.\nTry touching. Go in for a hug, reach for your partner’s hand, or throw an arm around their shoulder.\nTake a break. If you feel things escalating, spend a minute cooling off in separate rooms. Even just a quick pause can make a huge different! <img> ", "When you fight, owning up to your actions can defuse the situation. Sometimes, when you and your partner are in the thick of an argument, the last thing you’ll want to do is admit you were wrong. In that moment, it may feel more like admitting defeat. But in reality, to end your fight (and emotional drain) in a healthy way, letting your guard down is the key.\nFirst, tell your partner that you understand what you did to hurt them.\nNext, let your partner know that you are sympathetic to how they feel.\nThe more fights that you can end quickly and positively, the less emotional drain you and your partner will feel. <img> ", "Too much complaining can harm an otherwise healthy relationship. It’s great to know your partner can rely on you as a sounding board, but too much negativity can leave one of you feeling drained and the other, unheard. When complaints from one partner wear out the patience, energy, or attention span on the other, the listening ear can end up feeling totally emotionally burnt out.\nIf you tend to be the complainer, try screening some of your worries out. Ask yourself if you need support, or if you're complaining to complain.\nIf you really need help, you should be able to share with your partner. If not, find a positive spin to your comment instead.\nIf you’re the listening ear, try to be there when you sense that your partner really needs it.\nOn the other hand, don't make a big deal out of every little complaint. Offer a simple, supportive remark without opening up an entire discussion. <img> ", "Support systems help people feel supported and stay positive. When your relationship is draining your emotional reserves, leaning on the people who love you can help you feel understood and uplifted.\nReach out to a parent, sibling, cousin, or friend, and offer to buy them a cup of coffee and chat things out.\nPick someone who makes you feel heard. <img> ", "A professional can help you navigate your relationship’s issues. It’s never a bad idea to get an expert’s opinion if you’re struggling in your relationship. Reach out to your primary care doctor to get a referral for a great therapist in your area or try asking friends and family for a recommendation. It may be helpful to interview different therapists before you settle on one.\nRemember, if you’d prefer it, you can go to see a professional on your own instead.\nSimilarly, keep in mind that your partner may end up wanting to attend therapy longer than you will. This is totally normal! <img> ", "By taking a break from the relationship, you and your partner can find time to reflect. When you’re with someone, working towards improving your relationship, and constantly answering to your partner’s needs, it can be really hard to get a good sense of whether or not the relationship is working. By stepping away from your relationship, the two of you can decide whether or not you’re happier and healthier on your own.\nSet clear expectations and boundaries before the break begins. No one should be getting hurt over a miscommunication.\nKnow that taking a break can be a bit of a risk. There’s always a chance that you or your partner will gain clarity during a break that leads to a breakup.\nHowever, sometimes the relationship just isn’t working. Make sure you spend your break genuinely reflecting on your needs, desires, and relationship's patterns.\nTrust that if you come back together, your relationship will have a healthier, more secure foundation to build from. <img> ", "Even without a break, you can ask yourself questions to gain clarity. No relationship is going to be without issues, and you should make sure your evaluation reflects that. But at the same time, you should always ensure that your relationship is, overall, a source of more positives than negatives in your life. Try to kick off your reflection using some of these questions below.\nDo you feel both of you care enough about the relationship working out?\nAre you flexible with each other and within reasonable expectations, willing to change for each other?\nAre you typically able to resolve disagreements in a friendly way?\nDoes the time you spend together add or detract from your happiness? <img> " ]

[ "Join online dating sites. Dating sites are the first place you could look for romantic relationships. Online dating is perfect because everyone there is looking to find love, and you can read the profiles to determine whether someone would be a good match. Once you message back and forth with someone, you can arrange to meet up in-person.\nBe honest in your dating profile. You may be tempted to lie about your job, height, or interests, but the lie will eventually come out.\nKeep an open mind. Even if you might not click one hundred percent with someone's profile, you might connect with them after messaging.\nDon't underestimate the importance of good profile pictures, so get some high resolution photos that really show off your appearance. Avoid some common mistakes like group shots or photos where you're wearing sunglasses and hats.\nHave a friend preferably a girl that you respect review your profile to help improve it because women and men think differently. <img> Connect through special interest sites. Many people find their partner through websites promoting what they love. If you're into a certain sport, TV series, or hobby, join a website for fans of that thing. As you chat with other members, you may find one that you have a lot in common with. You can then start messaging and getting to know her on a personal level. <img> Explore online gaming sites. As outlandish as it may initially seem, some people find their significant others through virtual reality sites like Second Life or World of Warcraft. Talk to other players and get to know them. If you click with one of the players, ask them if you could add them on social media so you can message them.\nDon't join an online gaming site specifically to meet women. Women on these gaming sites will be most interested in dating you if you share a passion for the game, not if you're looking for love. <img> Sign up for alumni clubs. Some universities offer online social groups for those who graduated. Others are started up on social media websites by former students. Google alumni groups for the university you went to and get to know others in the group. You never know: you might connect with an alumnus nearby. <img> ", "Don't overshare in the first messages. Too much information about yourself, or too much intimate information, could chase away the other person. Save deeper conversations for after you get to know each other. While your first messages should have a good amount of information, avoid writing a novel: the other person might be intimidated and avoid responding.\nAlso, keep from saying too much about yourself. Focus your messages on her and genuinely try getting to know her instead of impressing her. <img> Ask thoughtful, open-ended questions. In online dating, original and open-ended questions will give you more responses than a simple, \"How are you?\" If you met them via online dating sites, read their profile and craft questions based on their likes. Open-ended questions (one that can't be answered by just \"yes\" or \"no\") are ideal because you'll get to know the other person more quickly.\nIf you met them on another site, ask questions based on what you already know about them. For example, ask someone you met on an online gaming website how they got into gaming. Ask someone you met on an alumni group what they majored in and what they're up to now.\nDon't just send a form message to everyone. Personalize the questions based on her specifically. This will show her that you care about her and that you have mutual hobbies. <img> Compliment based on actions or personality traits instead of appearance. You may be tempted to tell a girl how beautiful her profile picture is, but instead, tell her you think it's awesome she's into soccer or that she has a great sense of humor. Compliments about inner beauty instead of outer beauty feel more genuine.\nMen who send more general, personality-oriented compliments to potential dates over physical compliments receive more replies. People like to be complimented on who they are, not what they look like. <img> Chat for a few days to a week before meeting up. Spend time getting to know each other before you decide to meet up. The more you know each other, the higher your potential to click in real life will be. Go with the flow, and when you feel comfortable with her, suggest meeting up in person.\nConsider leaving it up to her to suggest meeting in-person. Some women may feel nervous meeting a stranger in-person, and letting her decide will give her control over the situation. <img> ", "Choose a public, social spot for your first meeting. Pick a safe space for your first date: a restaurant, gym, or outdoor park are all great places to meet up. Although you two have been chatting online, you still don't know her that well. Meeting in a public spot will be safest for both of you.\nWhile men say that their favorite place for first dates is restaurants, women prefer coffee shops. Keep in mind that a casual location might help her feel more comfortable. <img> Be polite, and arrive on time. If you can't be bothered to show up on time, your date will feel like you don't care about her. Respect her time and show up at the determined time. Act respectful and avoid making offensive jokes or accidentally insulting her. You want to make a good, thoughtful first impression. <img> Steer away from controversial topics. For your first date, focus on broad and positive topics. Avoid getting into a debate with your date, especially if you tend towards heated conversations. Steer from mentioning previous relationships, especially if you're not quite over your ex. Mentioning an ex-lover on the first date tells her that you're already comparing her to that person. No woman wants that.\nYou may have heard that the golden rule for first dates is avoiding politics, but this is actually not true. If you both enjoy politics, go ahead and talk about it but remember to respect her opinions even if different from yours.\nOpen up the conversation with something genuine! For example, ask a sincere question or make an honest compliment. <img> Keep your attention on her. Treat her as if you believe she already likes you. Worrying about whether she wants a second date later will only make you nervous, and you could accidentally sabotage any chemistry blossoming between you two. She agreed to meet up, so she's likely open to dating you. This date is time to see if you're mutually attracted to each other.\nRemember, you don't look as anxious as you feel. People tend to overestimate the visibility of their own anxiety. If you don't feel confident, fake it until you make it. <img> ", "Communicate with them often, and continue going on dates. After the first date, don't retreat! Thank her via a quick message for a good time and, later, ask her if she's interested in a second date. Continue dating and communicating frequently, whether by text message or conversation in-person.\nSometimes finding someone interested in a second date may take time. If the first person you meet with declines, don't beat yourself up. Keep getting to know people and keep dating. <img> Engage gradually in more intimate conversations. Emotional intimacy takes time to develop. As it blossoms, you'll find your relationship with her strengthening. As you continue going on dates, slowly get to know her on a deeper level. When you feel comfortable, share more personal thoughts and feelings with her. She may follow suit when she feels ready. <img> Schedule a \"DTR\" conversation when you're ready. A \"DTR\" conversation stands for \"define the relationship.\" After you two have gone on multiple dates and had lots of conversations, ask her whether she wants to start dating exclusively. If so, discuss where the relationship is going and how you want to proceed.\nTry to keep the conversation light and comfortable. Starting the conversation with, \"What are we?\" can make her feel anxious.\nLet her know that you care about her no matter what and that you'll respect her choice, even if she doesn't want to be in a relationship. <img> Be kind and thoughtful if things don't work out. If she says she doesn't want to be your girlfriend, don't blame yourself. She may not be ready for commitment at this time, or the two of you might not connect romantically. Thank her for being honest and, if you feel comfortable, work to maintain a relationship as friends. Be kind and dignified, and respect her choices.\nSometimes, raw feelings may get in the way of keeping a friendship. If you need space to process your emotions, let her know.\nDon't give up! When you're ready, return to dating online. In time, you may find \"the one.\" <img> " ]

[ "Spend as long as possible in Space Paranoids and Pride Lands. You'll need the Elixirs found on Living Bones and Devastators. <img> Level up all your forms. Master and Final are most important. While you only require level 3, achieving higher is always helpful. <img> Obtain the following abilities. If you do not have all of these abilities, you have to get up in a higher level. You have to at least have over level 53.\nOffense (BLUE) - All except Guard, Counterattack, and Explosion\nGrowth (GOLD) - High Jump (Valor), Quick Run (Wisdom), Aerial Dodge (Master), Glide (Final)\nSupport (GREEN) - Scan, Two Combo and Air Combo Up, Combo and Air Combo Boost, Second Chance, Once More, Leaf Bracer (for healing when under attack), Two MP Rage, Berserk Charge (optional) <img> Equip all your Elixirs and High-Potions. <img> Equip armor and accessories.

He will use this at the beginning of battle, and further into the fight. <img> Select immediately Limit then execute Trinity. When you are finished with the first strike press △ quickly to attack him again. After, you can still attack him with the ✕ button. <img> Attack. Use either Upper Slash or Finishing Leap to send him in the air, then keep on with your attack, adding a couple Horizontal Slashes along the way. <img> Wait for both you and Sephiroth to drop to the ground. He will then do either one or two things.\nHe will stand his ground and attack using his sword. If he does this, jump and use Arial Dodge, then Glide away from him. When you get on the other side, land because you might need to press △ to guard again.\nHe will teleport and knock you up in the air. If he does this, press □ to use retaliating slash when he reappears, then continue with your combo by pressing ✕ until either he disappears or you finish. <img> Be attentive. At anytime after knocking out about 5 bars, Sepiroth will use Heartless Angel. This attack is one that will summon a halo around your head to bring you down to one HP and no MP (With second chance or Once More) or Auto-kill you. To stop this, attack him before he finishes saying \"Angel\".\nIf you do not have the necessary abilities to reach him, and therefore cannot attack him, a well timed cure spell will cancel out the attack, but you will still have zero magic. On top of this, if you do not have the second chance ability, curing will make no difference as you will die before your cure spell has any effect. If you don't stop him in time, he will teleport and use either an attack you will need to block with △ or his regular attack.\nAfter this, Sepiroth will continue using Heartless Angel periodically. <img> Follow Sephiroth. After Heartless Angel, he will become more of a threat, running instead of just standing there and gawking or walking around. He will not only use his standard attack, but he will use something called Shadow Flare, which is a big fire pillar that sucks you in. Just use Glide for it or if you have the MP, use Trinity.\nOften there will be dark balls that appear around you. You can either destroy them (it takes only one hit), or use Reflect on them to knock them back toward Sephiroth. The number of balls depends. Sometimes there will be only 3 other times 7 or 8. Also sometimes he will use one of his Flash attacks where you need to press △.\nIf this happens and the balls are around you press △ and the balls will be blocked too. Also worth mentioning is that aerial dodge can knock the balls away. <img> Prepare for the final. When you get him down to about 4-5 bars of life, He will teleport and turn into his final form, where he is at his strongest and will use a meteor spell to try to kill you. When this happens, double-jump and use glide. Don't stop moving. <img> Finish Sephiroth. The last pinch of life that Sephiroth has will only diminish via a Finishing move. It will still work if you're doing a Berserk barrage. How? You'd have to do a Horizontal Slash or an Upper Slash to \"replace\" the Finishing move. <img> ", "React to the attacks. After using \"Heartless Angel\", Sephiroth is actually at his most vulnerable. Quickly use the reaction command, dodge (△) to avoid his attack. Counter immediately. Use the berserk mode to hack away at a ton of his HP (you will be able to make combos infinitely), but be sure to stay grounded. Do not jump into the air, or you will become more vulnerable to his vanish-reappear move. Stop your onslaught. Quickly cast curaga, elixir or hi-potion from the shortcut menu to replenish your health from 1 HP. Heal. Note that if you continue to attack Sephiroth in berserk mode for a very long time, eventually the computer will automatically warp him away so he can attack again. The second he warps away from the painful end of your keyblade, be sure to heal, or his next attack might kill you. Usually the next attack will be the dark energy balls (\"Give into the darkness\") which will give you an extra split moment to heal, but he might also slash at you." ]

[ "Decide which type of system to use. There are several varieties of hydroponic systems, and tomatoes can grow well in any of them. The instructions in this section will teach you how to construct an ebb and flow system, which is relatively cheap and easy to build. This system is also known as a flood and drain system because it floods the plants with nutrient solution and then the solution drains when it is about two inches from the top of the container.\n\nNote: Hydroponics stores and home improvement stores may sell a hydroponics kit which includes everything you need to set up your system. Alternatively, you can purchase each component separately, or even find some of them around your house. Clean secondhand or previously used components thoroughly before building the hydroponics system.Alternatives:Deep water culture: simple system for cherry tomatoes and other small plants.Multi flow: a larger version of the ebb and flow that relies on gravity. Difficult to build, but supports more plants.Nutrient film technique (NFT): Suspends the plants with roots brushing against slope of trickling nutrients. Slightly more finicky and expensive, but preferred by some commercial growers. <img> Find a suitable location. Hydroponics systems are only suitable for indoor or greenhouse environments. They require precise control to function properly, so they should be set up somewhere closed off from other rooms and from the outside. This allows you to set the temperature and humidity to accurate levels needed for best growth.\nIt is possible to grow hydroponics using natural light, but keep the system under a glass or polyethylene covering such as a greenhouse roof, not open to the air. <img> Fill a large, plastic container with water to use as a reservoir. Use a plastic container that does not let in any light to prevent the growth of algae. The larger this reservoir, the more stable and successful your hydroponics system will be. Each tomato plant requires about 2.5 gallons of nutrient solution. However, many factors can cause the tomato plants to use water faster, so it is recommended that you use a container that can hold double the minimum amount of water.\nYou may use a plastic bucket or trash can for this purpose. Use a brand-new one to prevent any contamination of the system, or at least a lightly-used one thoroughly scrubbed with soapy water and rinsed.\nCollected rainwater may be better suited for hydroponics than tap water, especially if your tap water is especially \"hard\" with high mineral content. <img> Fix a tray in place above the reservoir. This \"ebb and flow tray\" will support your tomato plants, and will be periodically flooded with nutrients and water that the tomato roots will absorb. It must be sturdy enough to hold up your plants (or be placed atop additional support), and placed higher than your reservoir to allow excess water to drain down into it. These are typically built of plastics, not metal, to avoid corrosion that could affect the plants and wear out the tray. <img> Install a water pump inside the reservoir. You can purchase a water pump at a hydroponics store, or use a fountain pump found at home improvement stores. Many pumps will have a chart listing the water flow at different heights. You may use this to find a pump strong enough to send water from the reservoir to the tray containing the plants. The best course of action, however, may be to pick a powerful, adjustable pump and experiment with the settings once you have your system set up. <img> Install fill tubing between the reservoir and the tray. Using 1/2 inch (1.25 cm) PVC tubing, or the type of tubing that came in your hydroponics kit, attach one length of tubing between the water pump and the tray, so the tray can be flooded to the height of the tomato plant roots.\nPosition the inlet and outlet pipes at opposite ends of the tray to promote water circulation. <img> Install an overflow fitting leading back to the reservoir. Attach a second length of PVC tubing to the tray with an overflow fitting, located at a height at the bottom of the roots. When the water reaches this level, it will drain back through this tube and into the reservoir.\nKeep in mind that the overflow tube should be larger in diameter than the inlet tube from the pump to avoid flooding. <img> Attach a timer to the water pump. A simple timer intended for light fixtures can be used to power the water pump at regular intervals. This needs to be adjustable so you can increase or decrease the amount of nutrients delivered depending on the plants' stage of life.\nA heavy duty 15-amp timer with waterproof cover is recommended.\nAny water pump should have a way to attach a timer, if it doesn't come with one already, but the exact instructions vary by model. Ask the manufacturer if you are having trouble with this step. <img> Test the system. Turn on the water pump and see where the water goes. If a stream of water fails to reach the tray, or if excess water spills over the edges of the tray, you may need to adjust the settings of your water pump or you may need to adjust the size of your drain pipe. Once you have the water set to the correct strength, check the timer to see if it sets the pump going at the specified times. <img> ", "Grow tomato seeds in a special material. Raise your tomato plants from seed whenever possible. If you bring plants in from the outdoors, you may introduce pests and diseases to your hydroponics system. Plant seeds in a nursery tray with a special growing material for hydroponics, instead of ordinary soil. Before using, soak the material with pH 4.5 water, aided by a pH test kit from a garden store. Plant the seed under the surface, and keep under plastic domes or other transparent material to trap moisture and encourage the seeds to sprout.Growing materials:Rock Wool: excellent for the tomatoes, but wear a mask and gloves to avoid irritation.Coconut coir: excellent choice, especially when mixed with clay \"grow rocks.\" Low-quality products may require rinsing due to salt content.Perlite: cheap and moderately effective, but washes away in an ebb and flow system. Best in a mix with 25% vermiculite. <img> Place seedlings under artificial light once they sprout. As soon as the plants sprout, remove the covering and place the seedlings under a light source for at least 12 hours a day. Only use incandescent light bulbs as a last resort, as these produce more heat than other options.\nSee the section on hydroponics system setup to learn about grow light options.\nTake care not to let the light shine on the roots to avoid damaging them. If roots are protruding from the starter material before they are ready to transplant, you may need to soak additional starter material and use it to cover them. <img> Move seedlings into the hydroponic system. Wait until their roots start to protrude from the bottom of the nursery tray, and the first \"true leaf\" has grown, larger and different in appearance than the first one or two \"seed leaves\". This usually takes 10–14 days. When you move them into the hydroponics system, you may place them at 10 to 12 inch intervals in a layer of the same material, or transfer them to individual plastic \"net pots\" containing the same material.\nIf using the ebb and flow system described in this article, the plants are placed on the tray. Other systems may call for the plants to be placed in a trough, along a slope, or wherever the water and nutrients can reach the roots. <img> Set the water pump timer. To begin with, try setting the pump to run for 30 minutes every 2.5 hours. Do not go more than 2.5 hours without running the pump. Keep an eye on the plants: you'll need to increase the watering frequency if they begin to wilt, and decrease it if the roots become slimy or soaked. Ideally, the material the plants are in should just barely dry out when the next watering cycle comes along.\nEven once the watering cycle is established, you may need to increase the watering frequency once the plants begin to bloom and fruit, since these processes require additional water. <img> Set your artificial lights (if applicable). For ideal growing conditions, expose growing tomato plants to between 16 to 18 hours of light a day. Then turn off the lights and let them sit in total darkness for about 8 hours. The plants will still grow if you are relying on sunlight, but will likely grow more slowly. <img> Stake and prune tall tomato plants. Some tomato plants are \"determinate,\" meaning they grow to a specific size, then stop. Others continue to grow indefinitely, and may need gently tying to a stake in order to grow upright. Prune them by breaking off stems with your hands rather than cutting them off.\nKeep in mind that even though determinate tomatoes will grow without staking, there is a risk of lower yields if you do not stake the plants upright. When the plants set fruit, they may droop and come into contact with the growing medium. <img> Pollinate the tomato plant blossoms. When the tomato plants bloom, since there are no insects in your hydroponics environment to pollinate them, you will need to do it yourself. Wait until the petals bend back to expose the round pistil and the pollen-covered stamens, or long, thin sticks at the flower center. Touch a soft paintbrush to each of the pollen-covered stamens, then touch the rounded end of the pistil. Repeat daily. <img> ", "Control the temperature. During \"daylight\" hours, the air temperature should be 65 to 75 degrees Fahrenheit (18 to 24 C). At night it should be 55 to 65 °F (12.8 to 18.3 °C). Use thermostats and fans to regulate the air temperature. Monitor the temperature while the plants grow, as it could change with the climate or tomatoes' life cycle.\nPay attention to the growing solution temperature as well. This should be between 68 to 72 degrees Fahrenheit. However, you do not need to keep it exactly within this range. If it goes slightly outside of it, then that is fine. Just avoid letting the growing solution temperature go below 60 degrees Fahrenheit or above 80 degrees Fahrenheit. <img> Run a fan in the room (optional). A fan that exhausts to the outside or another room may help keep the temperature even throughout the room. The air flow it creates may also make pollination easier, although to be certain of growing fruit you may wish to pollinate by hand anyway, as described below. <img> Add a nutrient solution to the reservoir of water. Choose a nutrient solution made for hydroponics, not ordinary fertilizer. Avoid \"organic\" solutions, which may decompose and make caring for your system more complicated. Because the needs of your system vary with tomato variety and mineral content of your water, you may need to adjust the amount or type of nutrient solution you use. To begin with, however, follow the instructions on the packaging to determine how much you need to add to the reservoir.\nTwo part nutrient solutions create less waste and can be adjusted if problems arise simply by mixing them in different amounts, making them preferable to one-part solutions.\nYou may wish to use a growth-focused formula while the tomatoes grow, then switch to a bloom formula once they flower to meet their new nutrient needs. <img> Use a pH test kit to test the water. Use a pH test kit or litmus paper to test the pH of your nutrient and water mix once it's had time to become an even mixture. If the pH is not within the range of 5.8–6.3, ask a hydroponics store or gardening store employee about materials that can be used to lower or raise the pH. You can adjust the pH with acidic or basic additions to the reservoir. \nPhosphoric acid can be used to lower pH, while potassium hydroxide can be used to raise it. <img> Install grow lights (recommended). Artificial \"grow lights\" will allow you to simulate ideal growing conditions year round, providing your tomatoes with many more hours of \"sunlight\" than the garden outside may be receiving. This is one of the major benefits of an indoor growing system. However, if you are using a greenhouse or other area that receives high amounts of natural light, you may accept a shorter growing season and save money on electric bills.\nMetal halide lamps simulate sunlight most accurately, making them a popular choice for hydroponics systems. Fluorescent, sodium, and LED grow lights are also available, but may cause slower or differently shaped growth. Avoid incandescent lights, which are inefficient and short-lived compared to other options. <img> Monitor the water regularly. An electrical conductivity meter or \"EC meter\" may be expensive, but it is the best way of measuring the concentration of nutrients in the water. Results outside the range of 2.0–3.5 indicate that the water should be changed or partially changed. EC meter testing works best if you are using a two part fertilizer. If you do not have an EC meter, look for the following signs in your tomato plants:\nLeaf tips curling downward may mean the solution is too concentrated. Dilute with pH 6.0 water.\nLeaf tips curling upward or a red stem suggest the pH is too low, while yellow leaves indicate the pH is too high or the solution is too dilute. In any of these scenarios, change the solution as described below. <img> Change the water and nutrient solution regularly. If the water level in the reservoir drops, add more water but do not add more nutrients. Every two weeks, or once a week if your plants do not look healthy, empty the reservoir completely and rinse the support material and roots of the tomato plants with pure, pH 6.0 water to leach away mineral buildup that could cause harm. Fill the reservoir with a new water and nutrient solution, making sure to balance the pH and let the mixture become even before you start the water pump.\nYou may use the water used for leaching to water regular garden plants. <img> " ]

[ "Figure out what your purpose is for the proposal. There are a variety of different reasons someone asks you to write a progress report. Obviously for any of them it's to show what kind of progress you've achieved on a specific project. However, there are some different types of proposals that you'll need to consider.\nProgress report for a research program or project is going to be slightly different than for a project at work. In this case you are more likely to need to cite information and are less likely to need to consider things like cost (although not always).\nA work report for a client is going to read somewhat differently than for a superior at work. You'll need to consider why you're writing this report for them. <img> Consider your audience. When you've sorted out the purpose of writing your progress report, you need to consider the kinds of things that your audience is going to need to know in the report. While all progress reports have general things they tend to include, you'll need consider the specifics:\nHow are your readers connected to the project? How will the outcome of the project affect them? (The connection and how they're affected is going to be different for your superior than for the client, for example.)\nConsider what decision your readers are going to need to make after reading the progress report (what support, money, time are they investing, for example.\nConsider the information your reader is going to need to know to oversee and participate in the project effectively. What technical aspects of the project will they need to know. Are they comfortable with technical jargon? <img> Decide on the best way to communicate with your audience. A progress report isn't only a written document that you send to your superior or your professor. It can take a number of forms depending on what is needed.\nA progress report could be a brief oral report at weekly or monthly staff meetings.\nIt could be periodic emails to colleagues.\nIt could be formal or informal memos to supervisors.\nIt can also be formal reports for clients or government agencies. <img> Check with your supervisor. Unless you've written this specific type of progress report before (in which case, why are you on here?), you'll want to get as much guidance from your superiors. There may be a specific format that your company uses, in which case you'll want to be sure you follow the rules for that. <img> Consider your tone. Not all progress reports need to be formal. In fact, internal reports for colleagues or supervisors often tend to be more informal in tone. This is why it's so important to check with your supervisor for what they are likely looking for.\nWhen it comes to information for a client or government agency, or thesis review board, you err on the side of formality.\nNo matter the formality or informality of your tone you want it to be clear, focused, and honest. <img> ", "Decide how you want to present your material. By the time you start writing your report you'll already have figured out what the tone needs to be and the point of the report. Now you need to decide the best way or ways in which to present that information.\nYou might choose to do a bulleted list. It's a very clear way to present the material and it's easy to skim and still get the needed information. However, it can be a slightly less formal way of writing a progress report so it might be better to use it for memos to supervisors and emails to colleagues.\nYou may also consider adding in graphs or tables. This might be especially good if you're writing a progress report for a project in which you're trying to get funding, or show why you deserve the funding you've been given. <img> Consider using subsections. To write a successful progress report you want it to be as clear as possible. Splitting your report into subsections is a great way to cluster all relevant material together.\nAdding subheadings to your can make this even clearer, because it lets your readers or audience know what to expect in each subsection. If there is material that they are particularly interested in they'll be able to jump right to that part. <img> Write the heading. This typically goes across the top of the paper, if you're using a page format. Again, it will depend on what your company or university prefers, so make sure you check in with them.\nThe heading should include the date, when the report was submitted, the name and the position of the recipient, the writer’s name and position, and the subject of the report. <img> Write the introductory section. The introductory section goes below the heading. It can often be set apart from the rest of the material through italics. It gives a brief overview of the project, and summarizes its status. You will be establishing what progress has been made, and whether certain goals have been achieved.\nMake sure to include: the purpose of the report, introduce the project, remind that this is an update on the progress of the project. <img> Do the body of the proposal. The body of proposal, whether it's broken into sections and subsections, is basically just a more detailed version of the introduction. Consider the information you've put into the introduction and make sure to expand on that information.\nSpecify tasks that have been accomplished since the last report and what tasks are ongoing.\nDiscuss problems that you’ve encountered, issues that need to be addressed, and potential solutions for those problems and issues.\nAddress changes that have happened and why they needed to be made.\nYou can also include things like personnel changes, difficulty in obtaining material, what cost overruns you may have encountered, any delays or problems with technology or security. <img> Address what is next for your project. While this is still basically part of the body of the report, you want to make sure that your audience understand where you're going with the project. Make sure that you state what problems might affect the deadline for completion, the budget, or the management structure.\nYou really do want to make sure say whether the deadline for the project has changed or not.\nAvoid sugarcoating any problems for your audience, but don’t alarm them unnecessarily or promise anything you can’t deliver. <img> Add in total hours worked. You will need to show how much work you and your team (if you have one) have put into the project. This will show your audience (whether it's your supervisor, your clients, or a government agency who might give you money) that you've been working hard. <img> ", "Make sure you stay on topic. As long as you stick the basic information outlined above, you should be fine. You really want to avoid wandering off into other areas only marginally related to the project, interesting though they may be.\nFor example: if your project is about reigniting a local, nonprofit arts organization, it might be tempting to go off into a discussion of the deplorable state of arts funding, but it won't really help detail how your project is coming along. <img> Keep it simple. The point of a progress report is to get across the progress you're making, without overwhelming your audience with words and ideas. All you need to focus on are how a particular project is coming, what still needs to be worked on, and what changes made need to be made.\nDepending on who you're writing the report for you might be cut down to a specific page limit. A good rule of thumb is to keep it as short as possible, while making sure that you fit in the appropriate information. <img> Try to avoid being too vague. You need to make sure that you give specific details on where you're at in your project. For example: you would want to avoid saying something like \"We're making good progress on getting our arts funding\" and instead say \"with the two $5,000 grants from these different foundations, we are just $2,000 short of our $12,000 goal.\" <img> Cut down on expressive wording. Again, you want your report to be clear and concise. You don't want to overwhelm your audience with wording that doesn't add anything to the report. For example, phrases like “complete catastrophe” or “giddy success” are too emotional and too vague to be of use to clients or supervisors. <img> Cite your sources. Any information you use that comes from an outside source, any graphs or data, needs to be properly cited. You can add an additional sources cited page to your progress report. <img> " ]

[ "Memorize the atomic symbols. An atom is the smallest unit of an element that retains the properties of that element. Each atom has its own spot on the periodic table, and its own one or two letter symbol. For example, the symbol for hydrogen is “H” and sodium is “Na.”\nThis often is a first assignment given to a chemistry class. <img> Know how mass changes in the table. One of the important characteristics of an atom is how much mass it has. This tells you how many particles are in the nucleus of the atom (the particles outside the nucleus are so small that they do not count in the mass). The periodic table is arranged so that mass increases as you go from left to right (across a row) and from top to bottom (down a column). <img> Understand the major types of elements. The periodic table is broken up into several different types of elements. The broadest categories are metals, metalloids, and nonmetals. The category that an atom belongs to can tell you about its physical properties and its reactivity. <img> ", "Know what subatomic particles make an atom. Three different subatomic particles make up an atom. Protons have a positive charge, neutrons lack charge, and electrons have a negative charge. The sum of protons and neutrons is equal to the mass of the atom (in atomic mass units). The mass of electrons is so little that they are not counted. <img> Be able to locate each particle. The nucleus is the center of the atom. This is where you will find protons and neutrons. Electrons orbit the nucleus in electron orbitals. Electrons do not typically enter the nucleus and protons and neutrons do not typically leave the nucleus. <img> Consider what happens when atoms bond. When two or more atoms join together, it is called bonding. Protons and neutrons are not directly involved in bonding. Electrons are shared or transferred between two or more atoms in a bond and this forms a molecule. <img> ", "Learn the major types of bonds. Ionic bonds occur between metals and nonmetals. Covalent bonds occur between two nonmetals. In an ionic bond, electrons are more likely to be found at one end of a molecule than the other. This results in a negatively charged and positively charged end of the molecule. Covalent bonds share electrons more evenly. <img> Utilize chemical formulas. Chemical formulae provide information about what elements are present in a molecule or reaction, and in what proportions. For example, hydrochloric acid has a chemical formula of HCl and the chemical reaction describing burning methane is CH4 + 2O2 → 2H2O + CO2. The numbers before the chemical symbols are known as coefficients and tell you how many of that molecule or atom is present. The number in subscripts tell you how many of particular atom is present in the molecule. <img> Consider stability as a reason for bonding. Atoms and molecules bond together to become more stable. That is to say that they try to attain the lowest possible energy state. To break a bond, you have to add enough energy to make the bond no longer favorable. For this reason, bonds are often hard to break. <img> ", "Polish your math skills. To understand chemistry, you will need to have a working knowledge of algebra (at least) since you will be using it often. Understanding calculus, differential equations, and linear algebra is a huge plus in upper level chemistry courses, like physical chemistry. You will be required to take some of these courses to obtain your chemistry degree. You should also consider seeking a math minor (or even double major) to give yourself a leg up in your chemistry work. <img> Choose a branch of chemistry. Chemists are broken up into several different categories of study. For example, there are physical chemists, biochemists, analytical chemists, etc. Decide what kind of chemistry you like the most, and concentrate on that topic. For example, if you really like organic chemistry, take more organic chemistry courses than what's required for your degree.\nYou can also pursue a master’s or doctorate to further narrow your scope and build your expertise in chemistry. <img> Do research in chemistry. Classwork is a good place to start learning the concepts of chemistry. Lab classes will help to teach you the protocol for conducting yourself in a laboratory and apply concepts you’ve learned in class. Ultimately though, if you wish to understand chemistry, you will have to do research on a topic in chemistry. While research is required for most chemistry degrees, it is usually a minimal amount. Start doing research as early as you can under the supervision of a professor in the field you like most (e.g. biochemistry). <img> " ]

[ "Wash your hands thoroughly. Scrub your hands with hot, running water and unscented soap, then rinse them off. Besides washing away dirt, this will remove skin oils that can prevent whites from fluffing. <img> Chill the eggs (optional). Cold yolks are less likely to break than warm ones, and easier to separate from the white. If you store your eggs in the fridge, separate them right after taking them out. If you store them at room temperature, you can put them in the fridge half an hour before you cook — though it's not a big deal if you forget.\nMost recipes call for whites or yolks at room temperature. You can warm chilled, separated egg by placing the bowls of yolks and whites in a pan of warm water (not hot) for 5–10 minutes. <img> Set up three bowls. If you're only separating a couple eggs, you only need two bowls. But if you're separating many eggs, get another bowl to crack the whole egg into. This way, if you break the yolk, or the egg is spoiled, you've only lost one egg instead of ruining a whole bowl of whites.\nThe faster method is to crack all the eggs into one bowl and lift out the yolks one by one, separating your fingers so the whites drop back into the bowl. It's best to leave this until you've had some practice, since one broken yolk will ruin all your whites. <img> Crack the egg. Crack the egg carefully into the first bowl, taking care not to break the yolk. If you can, you can crack the egg gently, then drop it right into your cupped palm instead — or even crack it in one hand.\nIf you have trouble with shell fragments in your egg, try cracking it against a flat countertop instead of the edge of the bowl.\nIf a bit of shell falls into your egg, pick it out with your fingers, without breaking the yolk. It's easier to get it out with half of the shell, but that increases the risk of salmonella contamination. <img> Let the whites drip through your fingers. Reach into the bowl and cup a yolk, lifting it up. Move your hand over to the second bowl and separate your fingers slightly, letting the whites drip through. Use your other hand to gently pull down thick strands of white if it doesn't fall on its own. If there is still white attached to the yolk, pass it back and forth between your hands until most of the white has dripped into the bowl below. <img> Drop the yolk into the last bowl. Move the yolk over to the last bowl and drop it in gently. Repeat the process with all your other eggs.\nIt typically doesn't matter if the yolks have a little bit of white stuck to them. As long as the bowl of egg whites is 100% free of yolk, you're fine. <img> ", "Understand the risks. Many health experts in the US and Australia recommend avoiding this method, since harmful bacteria on the shell could get in contact with the egg. The risk of contamination is much lower in the EU, which has a very effective anti-salmonella program. If you're concerned about the risk, use one of the other methods instead.\nCooking yolks or whites until firm makes them much safer. If you plan to serve the eggs runny or raw, consider another separation method. <img> Chill the eggs (optional). Room temperature eggs have runnier whites, which can make this method messy and difficult. Work with eggs straight from the fridge instead. <img> Imagine a line going around the \"fattest\" part of the egg. This is where you want to make the cleanest crack you can manage. The key with this method is to crack the egg evenly, so you can easily transfer the yolk between the two halves. <img> Start the crack on the egg. Tap the center of the egg gently against a hard object, so a crack forms across about half of the egg. The edge of a bowl is a good surface for getting two equal halves. The edge can also break off shell fragments into your white, though, so a flat counter might be better if your eggs have thin shells. <img> Carefully break apart the shell. Hold the egg over a bowl in both hands with the crack facing upward and the wide end tilted down. Slowly pull apart the two halves with your thumbs, until the egg breaks into two halves. Because the egg is tilted, the yolk should fall into the lower half. <img> Transfer the yolk from shell to shell. \"Pour\" the intact yolk back and forth between the two halves of the shell. Repeat this about three times, while the white drips over the side of the shell and into the bowl below. <img> Drop the yolk in another bowl. Drop the yolk in another bowl once there are only tiny bits of white stuck to it. If you have more eggs to separate, consider using a third bowl, so a messy crack doesn't drop shell shards or broken yolk into your whites. Separate each egg over this third bowl, then empty the bowl into the other whites bowl before you move on to the next. <img> ", "Carefully crack the egg onto a shallow bowl. Start with one at a time, so a broken yolk doesn't ruin your whole plate. Keep a second bowl on the side for the yolks. <img> Squeeze some of the air from a clean plastic bottle. Hold the bottle in this partially crumpled position. <img> Pick up the yolk. Place the mouth of the bottle on top of the egg yolk, and slowly release your grip. The air pressure will push the yolk into the bottle. This might take some practice; releasing too much or too quickly will pull up some of the egg whites as well. <img> Transfer the yolk to the other bowl. Carefully keep the bottle compressed so the yolk stays inside the bottle. Move the bottle over to the other bowl and let go to drop in the yolk.\nTilting the bottle a little may help. <img> ", "Crack the egg into a funnel. Put the funnel into the mouth of a bottle, or have a friend hold the funnel over a bowl. Crack the egg into the funnel. The whites should pass through the small opening while the egg yolk remains in the funnel.\nIf the whites get stuck over the yolk, tilt the funnel so they can pass through.\nThis might not work well for fresh eggs, which have thick ropy sections of white. <img> Use a turkey baster bulb. Unscrew the bulb from the baster handle, and you have a suction device the right size for grabbing yolks. Crack the egg onto a plate, then squeeze and let go to pull the yolk up into the baster. <img> Crack the egg onto a slotted spoon. Shake the spoon gently side to side, then up and down, and the whites should dribble through the slots. <img> Buy an egg separator. You can buy a specialized tool for separating eggs from online stores, or from some kitchen supply stores. These come in two main types:\nA small plastic cup surrounded by slots. Crack the egg into the cup, and rotate the separator so the egg whites fall through the slots.\nA small suction device. Crack the egg onto a plate, squeeze the suction device, put it over the yolk, and release to suck up the yolk. <img> Finished. <img> " ]

[ "When you love yourself, you’re more likely to put yourself first. Build your self-esteem by doing things that make you feel good, and remember how much you are worth. Come into the relationship knowing how awesome you are to avoid giving yourself away to your partner.\nTo build your self-esteem, try keeping a journal of your thoughts or repeating a mantra to yourself daily, like, “I am worthy, I am lovable, I am strong.” <img> ", "Don’t feel obligated to have sex if you aren't ready for it. Some people find that saving sex for marriage is a good way to mark the change in their relationship. For other people, having sex before marriage is a way to test compatibility. Decide whether or not you’d like to have sex with your partner, then sit them down and talk about how far you’re willing to go.\nIf you’d like to save sex until marriage, say something like, “Sex is a really important part of any relationship, and it’s a big commitment. I’d like to wait until we’re married to cross that threshold.”\nOr, you might decide to wait until you’re in a serious, committed relationship before having sex. If that’s the case, try something like, “I really like you, and I’d like to see where this goes. I’d also like to wait until we’re exclusive to have sex, because that would make me feel more comfortable.” <img> ", "A little mystery can keep the spark alive in a relationship. Although it can feel natural to open yourself up 100% to your partner, you might actually be giving too much of yourself away too fast. Try to take things slow emotionally so you both have time to work up to a loving, powerful relationship.\nFor instance, instead of giving a detailed history of your past, you might say, “I’ve worked on myself a lot, and I really like who I am today.” <img> ", "You can help out sometimes, but don’t do everything for them. Many women fall into the trap of taking care of their partners too much—cooking, cleaning, and helping out are fine sometimes, but if you do them all the time, your partner might come to expect them. When you’re just dating someone, don’t act like their caretaker. Remember that they were able to function without you before you came along, and they’ll be able to take care of themselves now, too.\nIf you and your partner live together, be sure to talk about how you’re going to split the chores and household responsibilities. Otherwise, you might end up taking on more than your fair share. <img> ", "Try not to put your partner’s needs above your own. You’re both equal in this relationship, and you should both be priorities to each other. When you make decisions, no matter how small they are, be sure to keep yourself in mind, too.\nFor instance, if you’re a vegetarian and your partner isn’t, skip the steakhouse and go somewhere that has food options for the both of you.\nIf you want to live in the city but your partner loves the country, try splitting the difference and getting a place in the suburbs.\nIt’s okay to put your own needs first sometimes, too. You can try to compromise most of the time, but don’t be afraid to prioritize yourself every now and then. <img> ", "Give yourself the freedom to buy anything you want. Creating a joint bank account or opening a joint credit card is a big decision, and it’s one that most people save for marriage. If you want to act like a wife and not a girlfriend, save this milestone for when you two actually get married.\nWhen you combine finances, your partner’s money decisions become your own. If you aren’t married by law yet, you could lose a lot of money if your partner decides to make a big purchase or investment. <img> ", "Take your relationship one day at a time to enjoy it for what it is. It’s easy to get distracted with thoughts of marriage or kids down the line. However, if that’s still a ways away for you, try to put it out of your mind for now. The more you can focus on progressing your relationship slowly, the better.\nEven if you’ve promised each other that you’ll get married, it’s not the same as actually being married. <img> ", "It’s not realistic to hold out hope that someone might change in the future. It’s natural to hold out assume that your partner might change their ways or come around to your point of view eventually, but that’s rarely ever the case. When someone shows you who they are, believe them—they probably aren’t going to change significantly.\nPeople can usually change in small ways, like how often they exercise or how much TV they watch. But your partner’s morals and values are most likely there to stay. <img> ", "Address these things early so they don’t fester later on. Making an excuse for them will only make you feel worse in the long-run, because it lets them sweep their bad behavior under the rug. We all make mistakes, but we can all apologize for them, too.\nMaybe your partner snapped at you when they got home from work. You might think, “Well, they had a long day today.” That might be true, but you can also say, “I don’t appreciate it when you take that tone with me. I know you had a tough day, but you don’t need to take it out on me.”\tExpert Answer\t\t\t\t\t\tQ\t\t\t\tHow can you communicate effectively with your partner?\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\tKelli Miller, LCSW, MSW\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tPsychotherapist\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tKelli Miller is a Psychotherapist, Author, and TV/radio host based in Los Angeles, California.

But this can cause problems later. It is better to say how you feel in a very calm and neutral tone. Make sure the timing is correct. Both of you should be calm when you have this type of conversation. <img> ", "Maintain your independence to keep your sense of self. It’s totally fine to hang out with your partner often, but make sure you’re doing your own thing, too! The more you can maintain your independence, the better you’ll feel.\nTry joining a local hobby group or club to meet new people who have your same interests. <img> ", "They can give you a point of view that you might not be able to see. Ask your friends to tell you if you’re acting like a wife. It can be tough to see our relationship for what it is sometimes. If you have close friends that you trust, check in with them every now and then to get their opinions on your relationship. If they tell you that you’re diving in too deep, you can heed their advice and back off a little.\nMake sure you’re talking to people that you trust will give you the honest truth. Asking someone who doesn’t have your best interest in mind might just steer you down the wrong path. <img> " ]

[ "Find somewhere to vomit. If you're at home, toilets, sinks, and buckets will be your best bet. Sinks aren't really great because if your vomit comes out chunky, you'll probably have to fish your own vomit out of the drain.\nIf you're outside, try to get away from people and their belongings. Nothing makes you more ticked off when some random drunk comes and spews all over your car. Try to find a forest or an empty lot. You can throw up on the open ground in one of those areas. <img> Make sure you need to vomit. Some people are assaulted with waves of nausea, and aren't really sure that they need to throw up. In this case, vomiting might not be all that comfortable because it's unnecessary. Other people know that they're going to vomit — perhaps they've had too much to drink — and purging is an inevitability. Look for these telltale signs that you or someone else is going to vomit:\nLips turn pale, lose all color.\nStart sweating, feeling excessively hot.\nStart salivating a saltier-than-usual spit.\nExtreme discomfort in the stomach.\n\nDizziness, an aversion to movement. <img> Try to prevent nausea and vomiting before it's too late. There are a few things that you can try to do to prevent your body's vomiting response. Try these before you force yourself to vomit:\nDrink small amounts of clear, sweetened liquids such as soda or fruit juices (orange and grapefruit juices are not advised because these are too acidic).\nRest either in a sitting position or in a propped lying position. Activity may make nausea even worse, leading to vomiting. <img> Let your body vomit or induce vomiting yourself. Your body will do the trick itself if you give it enough time, or if you just want to get it all over with as soon as possible, use the following emetics:\nMedications, such as syrup of ipecac, or salt- or mustard-water, can be taken orally to induce vomiting.\nUse your fingers to stimulate the uvula. Take one or two fingers, place them in the back of your mouth, but do not try to touch the uvula, which is the little dangling flap of skin at the back of the throat.\nWatch another person vomit. Seeing another person throw up can increase your likelihood to vomit. While it's difficult to spontaneously will nausea on someone else just to induce vomiting, it is possible to watch videos online. <img> Try to vomit. Now that you're sure you need to vomit, accuracy will be the next objective. When the vomiting feeling comes over you, get your mouth close to the toilet bowl or container, preventing spray or spillage. If you're outside, the closer you are to the ground the less splatter you'll produce. <img> Drink something. When you're done, drink some water. It will wash away the acidic taste. Also, if you have to vomit again, your stomach isn't empty; vomiting with an empty stomach can be very painful. <img> ", "Know that most vomiting is normal, but some vomiting could present larger medical problems. A very common cause of vomiting is gastroenteritis, an inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract which, while painful, is not a serious medical condition. <img> Call a doctor or nurse about your condition if:\nThe nausea lasts for more than a few days or there is a possibility of pregnancy.\nPersonal treatments are not effective, you suspect dehydration, or a known injury has occurred, causing vomiting.\nVomiting lasts for more than a day, or accompanying diarrhea lasts for more than 24 hours.\nFor infants, vomiting lasts more than a few hours, diarrhea and signs of dehydration are present, there is a fever higher than 100 °F (38 °C), or if the child hasn't urinated for six hours.\nFor children over age six, vomiting lasts more than 24 hours, diarrhea combined with vomiting lasts for more than 24 hours, there are signs of dehydration, there is a fever higher than 102 °F (39 °C) or the child hasn't urinated for six hours. <img> Seek immediate medical attention if:\nYou see blood in the vomit (bright red or \"coffee grounds\" in appearance).\nYou have severe headaches or a stiff neck.\nYou experience lethargy, confusion, or a decreased alertness.\nYou experience severe abdominal pain.\nYou count a fever over 101 °F (38 °C).\nYou measure rapid breathing or pulse. <img> Consult with a specialist if you think you may have an eating disorder such as Bulimia. Bulimia is the urge to vomit after eating in order to control weight. People with bulimia eat large amounts of food in a short time (binge) and then find a way to get rid of the food (purge). Bulimia is treated with psychological counseling, but is curable. <img> ", "Eat foods carefully, consistently, and in proportion. We all know that eating the wrong thing, or eating too much of it, can cause vomiting. But how we eat food also plays a part in preventing nausea in the first place.\nEat small meals throughout the day instead of a couple of big meals at long intervals.\nEat slowly and chew your food before you swallow it.\nAvoid foods that are hard-to-digest, such as dairy, spicy, acidic, fatty, or fried foods.\nEat foods that are cold or at room temperature instead of foods that are warm or hot if you find them distasteful. <img> Drink enough and rest properly after a meal. Giving your body the proper time and adequate position to digest food may help keep you from feeling nauseated in the first place.\nDrink liquids (preferably water) in between instead of during meals, and stay on pace to consume between 6 to 8 8-ounce glasses of water per day.\nKeep your head at least a foot above your feet if you decide to rest or sit down after a meal.\nActivity may worsen nausea.

[ "Confirm your car wasn’t towed. When you realize your car is gone, check to see that it hasn't been towed. Look around and confirm you didn’t park under a “No Parking” sign or in front of a fire hydrant. If you did, then the city might have towed it.\nIf necessary, contact towing companies in your area and ask if your car was towed.\nAlso walk around the parking lot. It is easy to forget where you parked, and you want to make sure the car has been stolen before taking next steps. <img> Gather identifying information about the car. Sit down and write out the following information, which the police will need to find your vehicle:\nYear, make and model.\nCar color.\nLicense plate number. If you can’t remember it, call your insurer and explain that your car was stolen. Ask for the license plate number.\nVehicle identification number (VIN). Your VIN should appear on your car title. However, you probably left it in your car. (It’s a good idea to make copies of car documents and keep them at home precisely for this situation). Call your insurer to ask for the VIN. <img> Call the police. The police will probably have better luck finding the car than you will, so call them as soon as possible. Tell them you want to file a stolen vehicle report and provide the necessary information.\nMake sure to get a copy of the police report and the case number. You will need them.\nAsk if the police report can be mailed to you. If not, take public transportation to the police station or ask a friend to drive you. <img> Report to your insurance company. Within 24 hours, you should report the stolen car to your insurance company. Don’t delay. Provide your insurer with the following information:\ndate and time of theft\nwhere your car was located\nwhere the keys were located\nnames of anyone with access to the vehicle\ndetailed description of the car\ndescription of personal items in the car\npolice report number\ncontact information for the financing company (if your car is financed) <img> ", "Check security footage. Many businesses now have security cameras recording their parking lots. Also, your community might have installed cameras that record streets, schools, and other government buildings. You should try to access this security footage, which could help identify the thief.\nStop into your town office or city hall and ask about checking security footage. Have a copy of your police report with you. Tell them the day and time you think the car was stolen.\nYou can also stop into private businesses and asks. Also show them a copy of your police report. Avoid delay. Sometimes, businesses delete or film over security footage. <img> Contact cab companies. Cab drivers are almost always on the road, so they are good “eyes” to have looking for your car. You can call up local cab companies and offer a reward for information leading to the recovery of your car.\nMake sure to provide a detailed description and offer a sweet enough reward so that cab drivers have an incentive to find the car.\nSome people think $100 is enough, but you should probably offer closer to $500. <img> Track your car using the VIN. Whenever someone registers, titles, or services your car, the VIN will be entered into a database. You can purchase a vehicle history report at the AutoCheck website for $30-40. Check this report for any entries after the date your car was stolen.\nIn the United States, you can also use the VinCheck feature at the National Insurance Crime Bureau (NICB) website. This website finds cars that are reported as stolen or salvaged.\nContact the police in the area where the car has been registered or serviced. Explain that your car was stolen and share your copy of the police report and your vehicle history report. <img> Check your city’s transportation website. If the thief parks your car and gets a ticket, then that information is entered into your city’s database. Go online and search your car’s license plate number. If you find that it has been parked somewhere, call the police and tell them where. <img> Search cars for sale online. The thief might try to sell your car online. Often, they will post a picture and other identifying information, so you can scroll through pictures and see if any look like your car. Popular online marketplaces for automobiles include the following:\nCars.com\neBay Motors\nCraigslist\nAutotrader.com <img> Report when the car is found. Make sure to contact both the police and your insurer if you find the car. Should your car need repairs, your insurer will cover it.\nInsurers wait about 30 days before declaring your car lost. At that point, they pay out the fair market value of the car. This is the amount your car would fetch on the open market.\nIf you find your car after receiving payment from your insurer, then the insurance company gets the car. <img> ", "Lock your car. About half of all thefts result from mistakes an owner can make. One of the biggest is not locking your car when you leave it. Remember to do so.\nAlso roll up your windows completely so that no one can open a door by reaching in through an open window.\nClose any sunroof as well. <img> Take your keys with you. You should not leave your car running with your keys in it. You are inviting someone to steal your car. Instead, turn the car off and take the keys with you.\nAlso avoid leaving a second spare set of keys hidden in the car. For example, some people hide a second set of keys in the wheel well or underneath a floor mat. A thief can easily find these keys, which makes stealing the car a breeze. <img> Avoid leaving valuables in plain sight. Someone might be tempted to steal your car if they see your purse or another valuable in the seat. Once they break into the car, some might be tempted just to take off with the entire vehicle. Accordingly, hide valuables underneath the seats or lock them in the trunk. <img> Use an anti-theft device. There are several anti-theft devices on the market. Choose the one that works best for you. Two of the more popular are the following:\nIgnition cut-off systems that will prevent your car from being started.\nA mechanism that locks onto the steering wheel. This device prevents the wheel from being fully turned. <img> Install a tracking system. Many cars already come with a GPS tracking system. For example, General Motors has OnStar and Toyota has Safety Connect. If so, you can ask the service provider to track your car’s location (so long as the thief doesn’t disable the tracking system). You can also purchase a tracking system and have it installed.\nLoJack is a popular tracking system. Although only 55% of stolen cars are recovered, 90% of cars with LoJack are recovered. <img> Purchase comprehensive auto insurance. Comprehensive insurance will cover a stolen car. Talk to your car insurer to ask about comprehensive coverage, including the cost. Also ask about any discounts available. <img> " ]

[ "Consider talking to someone in human resources first. There may be options available to you if you want to quit without giving notice because you have a personal or family crisis, or because you're the victim of workplace harassment.\nIf you have a problem with your work environment, such as an abusive boss or coworker, make sure the person with whom you speak is not involved with or connected to the situation.\nExplain your reasons for wanting to leave immediately, and see if any accommodations can be made.\nFor example, you may be allowed to work out a notice by working from home. However, if your work is not the type of thing you can do remotely, such as if you work on an assembly line, this may not be an option.\nMake sure this meeting will be kept confidential. You don't want everyone knowing you're going to leave until you do so. Otherwise, there might be some backlash. <img> Search for example letters. If you're unsure how to compose your letter, you may be able to find samples online that will help guide you. Avoid copying a sample verbatim, though. It might not fit your situation.\nTry to find more than one sample. Read them carefully so you understand the substance well enough to make it your own.\nYou typically don't necessarily want your letter to sound to formal or canned. However, if you're delivering the letter to an abusive or problematic boss, a canned letter may be appropriate. <img> Use traditional business letter format. As tempting as it may be to fire off an \"I quit\" email, a traditional letter is a better way to go. Even though you're not giving any notice, it shows that you respect your employer.\nYou typically can find a business letter template on any word processing application. Using that will make formatting your letter much easier.\nIf your employer has a dedicated human resources department, create two identical letters. One should be addressed to your boss, the other to the head of human resources.\nInclude your personal address on the letter, along with any additional non-company contact information such as your personal phone number or email address. <img> Maintain a courteous tone. Regardless of your real feelings about your boss or your job experience, courtesy makes a better impression. Being polite and professional will make it easier to accept your resignation.\nState the exact date on which you want your employment to end. Don't say \"effective immediately\" or \"effective at the end of this week.\"\nIf you're writing the letter on September 14 and you expect your last day to be September 16, write \"I am writing to resign my position, effective September 16.\"\nApologize for not being able to provide any notice, and close your letter by thanking your employer for the opportunity. <img> Keep it brief and to the point. Show your employer you respect their time. Don't go on a long, rambling rant about your personal issues or your problems with the company. Simply state that you're resigning your position, effective immediately, and leave it at that.\nKeep in mind that this letter could come back to haunt you, even if you already have another job lined up. You shouldn't put it past your boss to send a copy of the letter to your new employer – especially if you live and work in a relatively small town, or work in a close-knit industry.\nIf you're not comfortable disclosing the reason you need to resign, you don't have to say anything specific.\nRemember that as an at-will employee, you can leave at any time for any reason at all, or for no reason.\nMention any issues regarding accrued time off or your last paycheck. Some employers require you to come in for an exit interview when you accept your final paycheck.\nYou should generally be open to follow any existing separation procedures, unless doing so would be impossible – for example, if you have to travel far away immediately. <img> Proofread your letter carefully. When you've finished your letter, double- and triple-check it for spelling and grammatical errors. You want your last impression to be a good one, and typos or sloppy grammar won't do you any favors.\nKeep in mind that some people view the presence of typos as a sign of disrespect. You're signaling that you don't think they're worth the effort to produce the best work.\nAfter you've proofread your letter, print it off and sign it by hand. Make copies of your signed letters for your own records before you take them to your employer. <img> Hand-deliver your letter. If at all possible, you want to take the letter to your boss in person rather than mailing it. Mail does have the benefit of being able to later prove the letter was received. However, this benefit is outweighed by the difficulty of timing.\nWhen you speak with your boss, be as apologetic as possible. It can help to acknowledge that you understand how your leaving may put them in a bind.\nIf you have a legitimate reason, talk about the situation. They may be able to help you more than they would if you said nothing.\nIf you have any questions about your employer's separation procedures, now is the time to ask them.\nDepending on your position, you may want to offer to help out in the coming weeks or be available by phone or email to answer questions.\nReach out to coworkers or direct supervisors you worked with closely, or with whom you had a strong rapport. You want to thank them personally and let them know you enjoyed working with them, so there are no hard feelings. <img> ", "Get a copy of your employee handbook. Most established employers, especially larger corporations, will have a written employee handbook. However, you may not have been given your own copy. \nEven if you do have your own copy, it's likely you haven't looked at it since it was given to you when you first started your job.\nIf you don't have a copy, talk to someone in human resources about getting one. If you want to keep your plans a secret, you don't have to tell them why you need it. Just say you want to check the benefits policy.\nYou also may be able to get a hold of an employee handbook on the sly if you know of a coworker who has a copy. Just ask to see theirs. <img> Review your company's separation policy. Your employee handbook should have a section dealing with what happens when an employee voluntarily separates from the company. These sections typically state that two weeks' notice is required.\nIf the separation policy makes no mention of providing notice, then you have nothing to worry about. However, this is rarely the case.\nYour employer typically will list consequences for quitting without sufficient notice. A typical consequence is that you cannot expect a positive recommendation from the employer after you're gone.\nOften this means that future employers won't have the ability to verify any positive experience or education you've acquired as a result of the job.\nParticularly if you're just starting in a career, this can be a pretty devastating consequence. <img> Find out what will happen with benefits. Whether you get money in your final paycheck for accrued leave may be tied to whether you provided notice. If this is the case, you may want to reconsider whether quitting your job without giving notice is worth it.\nThis may be particularly important if your employer allows you to accrue paid time off and you've been working there for awhile.\nKeep in mind that in that case, this amount may add up to hundreds, if not thousands of dollars.\nHowever, if the reason you must leave without notice involves some emergency, you may be able to make arrangements with your employer to get paid for at least part of this time. <img> Make arrangements to return all company property. If you were issued any company property, such as a laptop or a mobile phone, bring them with you on your last day. Find out what the procedures are for checking them back in.\nSome employers require all company property to be returned at a scheduled exit interview. If your employer has this policy, get a list from human resources of the property that was checked out in your name so you can make sure everything is returned.\nIf you have a parking pass or badge for building security, your employer likely wants those back too.\nCheck your belongings thoroughly before you leave on your final day, and make sure you aren't inadvertently taking home company property such as office supplies or other materials. <img> Consult an attorney. You don't generally need an attorney to quit your job without giving notice – there's no law against it. However, if you have unresolved issues with your employer, you may need legal advice.\nIf you happened to be under an employment contract, you are not an at-will employee. It is imperative that you find an experienced employment attorney who can analyze our contract and the penalties for breaking it. Do this before you quit.\nIn some circumstances you may feel as though you were forced to quit. If your workplace was abusive or unsafe, an employment attorney can help you assess your legal options.\nYou also may need legal assistance if something happens after you quit. For example, your employer might seek reimbursement for expenses that were covered while you were an employee.\nThis is most likely to happen if your employer paid for continuing education courses or something similar that has a future benefit. <img> ", "Have another job lined up. If you're quitting your job without giving notice because you need to immediately start another job, your decision likely will have few if any negative consequences. However, it's generally good form to make sure your new employer is aware that you are quitting without notice.\nIt's also important to keep in mind that if you quit without notice and without good cause, you probably will not be eligible for unemployment benefits.\nIf you have to quit your job without giving notice because of a family or personal emergency, this may not be possible.\nHowever, to the extent possible, your best option is to seek other employment while you're still working. Once hired, let them know you're available to start immediately.\nSome new jobs may not give you the time to work out a notice. If you fear the job offer will be rescinded if you have to work out a notice, you may have no choice.\nIn any event, making sure your new employer knows that you are quitting your old job without giving notice can spare an unfortunate surprise. If your former employer decides to share this information with your new employer, you won't have to worry about negative consequences. <img> Request a written reference letter. Getting a written reference letter from your immediate supervisor before your last day can cut through a lot of red tape. This letter can be especially valuable depending on your employer's notice policy.\nYou also should keep in mind that someone's opinion might change. When you leave, you may create a vacuum that leaves your immediate supervisor and coworkers scrambling.\nIn light of increased stress and an expanded workload, they may not be as generous in describing your time working with them.\nKeep in mind that providing a written reference is no guarantee that a new employer won't call your old job. However, it can lessen their motivation to do so. <img> Refrain from lying on job applications. If you're filling out a standard application for a job, it likely will require information about how you left your job. Often you must specify whether you provided notice.\nAs tempting as it may be, don't check the box indicating that you gave notice if you didn't.\nA potential employer can easily find out this information by calling your own employer, and may do so even if you state that you prefer they aren't contacted.\nDespite answering \"no\" when asked if a former employer can be contacted, a prospective employer still may call to verify that the information you provided was correct.\nAside from that, telling a prospective employer that they can't contact a former employer is typically a bad idea. It sends up red flags by signaling to the prospective employer that you left on bad terms. <img> Be prepared to explain your decision. When you leave a job without notice, it may come up in future interviews. Employers often look at employees who quit without notice as people who didn't respect their employer.\nParticularly if you have another job lined up when you quit, leaving this employer without giving notice may not make any difference.\nHowever, be aware that there are some managers who are sticklers about this sort of thing. They may have seemingly arbitrary rules such as never hiring someone who has quit a job without notice. This isn't something you can predict or control.\nIf you have a legitimate explanation for why you quit without giving notice, share it with prospective employers.\nIf your former employer understood and didn't fault you for leaving, sharing their response to your resignation will look even better. <img> " ]

Then, restore power to the thermostat and set it to “cool.” Some HVAC companies recommend waiting 30 minutes to turn your thermostat back on to give the unit more time to reset the internal breaker. If turning it back on after 1 minute didn’t fix the issue, try the process again but wait 30 minutes this time.\nIf your AC still doesn’t blow cold air or makes any strange noises, contact an HVAC technician to troubleshoot and fix your system. <img> ", "Press the reset button if your unit has one. Look for a reset button on the cord or the unit itself. If you find one, simply hold the button down for 5 seconds. Then, wait 10 minutes for your AC to reset. <img> Power off your AC unit if it doesn’t have a reset button. If your unit has a power button, turn it off. Then, unplug the power cord. <img> Wait 5 minutes. Give your AC unit a little bit of time to discharge so it can fully reset. <img> Restore power to the unit. Plug it back in, then turn it on. Problem solved! <img> " ]

[ "Locate the finder on your telescope. The finder is usually a smaller tube that sticks off the side of the telescope. It has a wider viewing range, so it can be used to find small objects in the sky. It only works if it is properly aligned to the telescope itself.\nWhen you look through the finder, you should see crosshairs. After properly aligning the finder, you can center an object in these crosshairs and then look at it magnified in your telescope. <img> Adjust the telescope eyepiece to the lowest magnification. The lowest magnification on the telescope has the widest range of view when looking through the eyepiece. On a smaller scope, the eyepiece will have a number written in millimeters, such as 20 mm or 25 mm. The higher numbers have the lowest magnification. Look at the eyepieces on your telescope and make sure the one with the lowest magnification is in place for viewing. <img> Focus the telescope on an object in the (near) distance. It is easiest to do this process during the day when you can more easily see many different objects in the distance, but it does not have to be day time. Choose a distant object such as your neighbor’s chimney or cell phone tower and find it in your telescope.\nIf your telescope can lock in place, engage these locks to keep it from moving away from object you have found. <img> Adjust the finder to center the large object in the crosshairs. Now that the telescope is focused on something, you want to move the finder until you see the exact same object centered in the crosshairs. Most finders will have screws on the side that will allow you to adjust its position. Once you have adjusted the finder, look back through it and make sure you still see the object centered in the crosshairs. Then, look through telescope and make sure it is still pointed at the object.\nIf both views are of the object, you have successfully aligned your finder.\nThe finder is easily jostled out of place, so you may need to repeat this process again if the telescope is moved or bumped. <img> ", "Look up star charts and planet guides for that month. Different planets are more or less visible depending on what time of year it is and where you are in the world. There are many websites and guides that will tell you what is visible for the month and location you are in. Use this as a guide to choose what you want to find.\nThese guides will give you an idea of where to look in the sky to find the planet by eye. <img> Adjust the telescope to its lowest magnification. Just as you did to align the finder, make sure the eyepiece with the lowest magnification is in place. Magnification on telescopes is measured in millimeters and the lowest will likely be around 20-25 mm.\nYou want to adjust the magnification before you locate the planet in your finder because you could jostle the telescope out of position when making the change. <img> Locate the planet in the telescope finder. Once you have found your planet of interest by eye, position the telescope so that it is pointing in that general direction. Look through the finder until you find the planet and center it in the crosshairs.\nAvoid jostling the finder out of place as you try to find your object. Move the telescope to adjust the finder’s position otherwise the finder position will no longer match up with the telescope. <img> Find the planet through the telescope’s eyepiece. If the finder has been properly aligned with the telescope, you should be able to see the planet through the telescope eyepiece. You might need to move the telescope a little bit to see the planet, but it should be pretty close to where you focused with the finder.\nIf you get too far away and still can’t find the planet through the telescope, make sure the planet is still visible in the finder. If it is and you can’t find it in the telescope, try realigning your finder. <img> Sharpen the planet using the focus knobs. Using the knobs on the side, you can shorten or lengthen the distance between the eyepiece and lens of the telescope. Changing this distance allows you to focus on the object in question. Adjust the knobs until you see the image come into a sharp focus.\nTry changing the eyepiece to increase the magnification and refocus. You may find that while the image is larger, you cannot focus as well. For smaller home scopes, the more you increase the magnification, the lower your resolution of image will be. Smaller scopes just aren’t powerful enough to sharpen the focus of a highly magnified planet. <img> " ]

[ "Check the envelope for a return stamp. A lot of junk mail can't be returned this way, and you'll only waste post office resources if you try. However, if the envelope is marked \"address correction requested\" or \"return postage guaranteed,\" that means you can send it back. The original company that sent the mail will pay the postage. <img> Write “Refused. Return to Sender” on the outside of the envelope. When a piece of mail is marked in such a way, the post office will send the item back to its original source. If the company that's sending you the junk mail receives the correspondence back, it will hopefully get message that you don't wish to receive any more mail in the future. Make sure to write in clear, legible print, so the message is easy to read.\nWhen you're marking the envelope, it's a good idea to use a felt tip marker that won't smear if it gets wet.\nIf your handwriting is difficult to read, you may want to use block letters to ensure that the “Return to Sender” message is clear. <img> Drop it in the mail. Once you write “Return to Sender” on your junk mail, there's no need to add postage. Simply place it in the mail as you would with any other item that you wish to send through the postal service.\nYou can place the junk mail that you wish to return in a mailbox, but it's usually better to hand it to your mail carrier or take it directly to the post office. That's because if it goes through the automated system without a worker doesn't specifically seeing the “Return to Sender” message on the mail, it may wind up back in your mail a few days later. <img> ", "Open the envelopes. If you've tried sending your junk mail back via a “Return to Sender” message, and it still keeps turning up in your mailbox, you may need to take a more direct approach to get it to stop. That means you'll need to open the junk mail, so you can sort through the items in each envelope.\nIf you get a lot of junk mail, opening up the envelopes can be an annoying process. You may want to collect it on a weekly basis and open it all in one sitting instead of doing it each day. <img> Gather the pre-paid return envelopes. When it comes to junk mail such as credit card offers and charity donation requests, the companies usually include a return envelope with pre-paid postage, so you can return the credit application, charity donation, or other requested item. After you've opened the mail, set aside all of the return envelopes, so you can correspond with the company without paying for postage. <img> Write a note. Even if you've sent previous correspondence back “Return to Sender,” your name still might not come off the company's mailing list. Making a written request that you stop receiving the mail may be necessary to put an end to the correspondence.\nBe polite but firm in the note. Don't resort to foul or abusive language.\nIf you're not sure what to write, try something simple like “Please remove me from your mailing list. I do not wish to receive any future offers/solicitations, etc.”\nMake sure to include your name and mailing address on the note because your contact information will not be on the pre-paid return envelope. <img> Mail it back. Because you're using the pre-paid envelope, there's no need to add any postage to the note. You can drop it in any mailbox or leave it for your mail carrier to pick up when he makes the next delivery. <img> ", "Gather pre-paid return envelopes. Just as when you're writing a note to ask a company to stop sending correspondence, you want to take advantage of the envelopes that they include for you to send items back, so you don't have to pay for postage.\nYou may want to save multiple return envelopes from the same company or organization. The more that you send back to them, the more likely they are to notice. <img> Collect some junk to stuff in the envelopes. If a note asking a company to stop sending junk mail doesn't get your name off their mailing list, you may want to make more of a statement. Stuffing the pre-paid envelope with items from around the house makes it weigh more, so the company has to pay more when you send it back to them, which will hopefully make them think twice about sending you junk mail. \nStuffing the envelopes with paper items, such as napkins, newspaper or magazine clippings, a deck of cards, or confetti, is usually the easiest way to go.\nStuff the envelopes until they can't hold any more material. If you're worried that they won't stay shut, you may want to reinforce the closure with tape. <img> Send the envelopes back. It's best to drop them in a mailbox because they'll be sorted by an automated system. A mail carrier or post office clerk might notice an extra thick envelope, and throw it away, so it may not actually get back to the company. <img> " ]

[ "Tone and moisturize your face. Toner and moisturizer help to achieve a glowing complexion. Toner goes onto a cleansed face first. It tightens your pores and reduces the oil that builds up on skin and makes it shiny. Moisturizer goes on after. It keeps the skin hydrated, reducing flakes and scales.\nIf you have oily or combination skin, use a moisturizer made for oily or combination skin. This way, it won't make you break out.\nIf you have dry skin, look for a toner made for sensitive or dry skin. You could also try a natural toner, such as rosewater. <img> Apply basic facial makeup, such as concealer and blush if desired. Face makeup helps to even out your skin tone and make your face look smooth and flawless. A basic makeup routine each morning before school may help you look your best all day long.\n\nUse a concealer that matches your skin tone to cover up blemishes, then blend it in with a makeup sponge.\nUse powder makeup brushes to apply powdered blush or powdered bronzer. Use a makeup sponge for cream or liquid products. Be sure to blend well.\nSet your makeup and help it last longer with translucent setting powder or setting spray. <img> Make your eyes pop with the right color of eyeshadow. Wearing eye makeup highlights one of the most mesmerizing features of your face. Basic eye makeup consists of eyeliner, eyeshadow, and mascara. Choose which of these, if any, you want to use. Wear eye makeup that works best with your eye color.\n\nBlue Eyes: Use eyeshadow in neutral colors, such as rose, terracotta, or light purple. Extend your eyeliner past the outer corner of your eyelid to create a \"cat-eye\" look.\n\nBrown Eyes: Choose deep colors like plum, charcoal, or forest green for dark brown eyes. For medium brown eyes, try purple, green, or bronze shadow. If your eyes are light brown, try bronze or champagne. Wear dark brown eyeliner instead of black.\n\nGreen Eyes: Try different shades of purple shadow, copper, or gold eyeshadow. Skip black eyeliner and try chocolate brown or espresso eyeliner instead. <img> Accentuate your lips. Adding color to your lips makes them look fuller while slimming the rest of your face. Basic lip makeup consists of lip liner, lipstick, and lip gloss. If using all three, carefully line your lips first. Follow with lipstick and top with gloss. Use colors on your lips that complement your features.\n\nBlonde Hair/Light Complexion: Wear hues that look light and natural, such as pale pinks, peach, or rose.\n\nRed Hair and Light Complexion: Try nude and beige shades and avoid pink or red shades.\n\nBrown or Black Hair/Light or Dark Complexion: Stick with deep, rich tones, such as spicy reds or bright corals, regardless of your skin tone. Skip pale, neutral shades. <img> Style your hair. Different kinds of faces look best with different hairstyles. Choose the style that will best fit your face shape.\n\nRound Face: Wear your hair down with long layers, especially in the front. Try a middle part, and avoid bangs, bob cuts, and side parts.\n\nOval Face: Experiment with any length or texture. You can also try bangs and different parts. Long, voluminous layers would look great, however.\n\nHeart-Shaped Face: Wear bangs that are cut straight across or swept off to one side. Keep your layers around your cheeks. Shoulder-length and chin-length hair looks best. Slicked-back or sleek, straight looks don't work as well.\n\nSquare Face: Wear hair wispy and falling in front of your face at your jawline. Side-swept bangs and hairstyles that are high (teased) at the crown work well. Avoid blunt haircuts and bobs.\n\nOblong Face: Straight-across bangs with a side part look best, along with layered, wavy styles. Avoid middle parts, and hairstyles that are high at the crown.\n\nTriangle Face: Try layered hairstyles that taper at the jaw line. Stay away from longer hairstyles, but don't go as short as a bob cut. <img> ", "Dress for your body type. Wear clothing that flatters your bodies and instills a sense of confidence when you put it on. Decide what kinds of clothes accentuate the best features of your body, while downplaying other areas you’re not as comfortable with. There are certain clothes that look universally great on different body types.\n\nHourglass Body: Draw attention curves and a thin waistline with a wrap dress, pencil skirt, belted jacket, or high-waisted, wide legged pants.\n\nApple Body: Accentuate thin legs while de-emphasizing the waistline with a flowing top, low-waisted straight leg pants, circle skirt, or shift dress.\n\nPear Body: Highlight a small waistline and downplay hips, butt, and thighs with an A-Line skirt, fit and flare dress, embellished shirt, bootcut pants, or structured jacket.\n\nRectangle Body shapes: Create the appearance of curves and highlight thin areas with a ruffled top, mini skirt, side cutout dress, skinny jeans, or cropped jacket. <img> Choose a color palette. Decide which colors best complement your skin-tone and features. Choose clothes within that color palette to underscore your natural beauty.\n\nWarm Skin Tones: Try warm reds (like tomato), peach, golden yellow, golden brown, olive green, gold.\n\nCool Skin Tones: try cool reds (like cherry), pink, blue, teal, turquoise, purple, mint green, silver. <img> Accessorize, but don't over do it. Accessories add pizzazz to an outfit. Even the most basic of clothing can look great when dressed with the right accessories. Consider the kinds of accessories that will complement your outfit and reflect your personal style.\nDraw attention to your face with big earrings, or emphasize your top with a long necklace. Don't be afraid to mix metals when wearing jewelry, as long as jewelry is allowed at your school.\nBreak up monotony with a belt. Wear a belt around your waist to make it appear smaller, or around your hips to make them appear broader.\nThe simpler the outfit is, the more accessories you can wear. The more complex or patterned the outfit is, the fewer accessories you should wear.\nWear accessories that say something about your personality or interests. Consider boho, gothic, punk, or vintage/retro accessories. <img> ", "Shower or bathe daily. Each morning before school or the night before, take a shower or bath and wash yourself thoroughly with soap or body wash. Cleanliness is key in achieving a comely appearance.\nRemember to wash your face with a gentle face wash that is suitable for your skin type.\nThere is more to being pretty than just looks; you have to smell good too! <img> Wash your hair. Frequency of hair washing is an individual preference, depending largely on your hair type. Figure out how often you need to wash your hair for it to maintain a clean look. For some, this may be every day, for others a couple of times a week. Use shampoo every time, and conditioner if desired.\nIf you have naturally curly, dry, or brittle hair, consider using a hair mask every so often to keep your hair looking soft and healthy. <img> Brush and floss your teeth. Dentists recommend brushing your teeth at least twice a day and flossing at least once a day. No exceptions. This will help maintain a healthy-looking smile.\nIf you have to wear braces, take a toothbrush with you to school so that you can brush your teeth after eating lunch. <img> Wear antiperspirant or deodorant. While not necessarily affecting the way you look, wearing an antiperspirant or deodorant will make you feel and smell fresh throughout the day. An antiperspirant will also help to eliminate sweat stains on your clothing, adding to your hygienic appearance. If you are a young school girl, aged 7 or 8, you might not need deodorant. \nNot every product will work for you, so you may have to try a few different before you find the right one. <img> ", "Smile. Studies have shown that people find a smiling face more attractive than one with a scowl. People are naturally drawn to happiness and will gravitate toward you if they see your happy, smiling face. A smile will also make you look more approachable to others.\nRemember to smile with your eyes as well; this will make your smile look genuine.\nThis doesn't mean that you have to smile all the time like a doll. Smile whenever you feel like it, or when you meet people. <img> Be confident. True beauty comes from within. If you feel beautiful on the inside, it'll be reflected in how you look on the outside. As celebrity makeup artist Bobbi Brown once said, \"Feeling confident, being comfortable in your skin — that's what really makes you beautiful.\"\nIf feeling confident doesn't come easily to you, try this: each day, look in the mirror and say one compliment to yourself. Start small, then move onto bigger things.\nThere's a difference between being confident and arrogant. You're confident if you know that you draw well; you're arrogant if you think you're the best artist ever. <img> Focus on what you have, rather than what you don't. We all want the perfect body, thick lustrous hair, pouty lips, and impeccable skin. Very few people have all of these qualities. Be thankful for the things about yourself that you love, and learn to embrace the imperfections.\nFor example, you might choose to focus on your pretty eyes or gorgeous hair. You might look great in hats or glasses, or maybe you pull off the retro style incredibly well.\nDon't forget about the non-physical traits, such as your talents and personality.

[ "Separate the colors of Skittles that you want to flavor the vodka with. Many people choose to leave out the green, which is lime if you're using original Skittles, and purple, which is grape in the original style, as they can create a weird taste combination or a less than appealing color for the final product. However, you can put them in if you want. If you don't mind mixed flavors, you can just skip this step altogether. Note that if you choose to mix the flavors together, you will create an unappetizing brownish color. <img> Add six Skittles to 25 milliliters (0.85 fl oz) of vodka. Keep swirling the mixture until the Skittles are almost completely dissolved. Note that the ratio of Skittles to vodka varies from recipe to recipe. You should experiment to find your preferred mix before making larger bottles. <img> Filter out the remaining Skittle bits.

[ "Purchase the supplies to build your pawns. In chess, the pawns represent your infantry. Pawns are the weakest piece on the board, valued at only one point per piece. There are 16 pawns for every full chess set, 8 for white and 8 for black, and are arranged across the second row from either side of the board. To make these you'll need:\n16 1\" long carriage bolts (threaded)\n16 hex nuts\n16 flat washers\nAll parts should be ¼\" diameter <img> Obtain the parts for your rooks. There are four rooks, sometimes called castles, in every chess set, two per color. Rooks are valued at five points apiece, and each rook begins with one in each of the four corners of the chess board. To construct your rooks, you’ll need the following materials:\n4 1½\" machine bolts\n4 castle nuts\n4 flat washers\nThe threading for these bolts should only extend halfway up the bolt.\nSome stores may refer to these bolts as “hex-head cap screws.” <img> Collect the components for your knights. There are four knights on a chess board, two per color, and they occupy the position directly next to each rook on the same row as the rooks. These pieces are valued at three points in chess.To make your knights you’ll need:\n4 1½\" long machine bolts (threaded)\n4 hex nuts\n4 wing nuts\n4 flat washers <img> Buy the parts for your bishops. There are four bishops on a chess board, two per color, and their beginning position is beside the knights on the same row as the knights. Bishops are valued at three points, giving them a tied value with knights. To make your bishops you’ll need the following materials:\n4 2\" long machine bolts (threaded)\n4 hex nuts\n4 cap nuts\n8 flat washers\nA cap nut is a hex nut, except the head of the nut is rounded. Sometimes it is called an acorn nut. <img> Gather the supplies for your queens. The queen is the most powerful piece on the board, rated at nine points. Each color only has one queen apiece. The queen always begins the game on her own color square next to the bishop, white queens a white square and vice versa for black.To make your queens, you’ll need:\n2 2½\" long machine bolts (threaded)\n2 cap nuts\n4 hex nuts\n4 flat washers\n2 fender washers\nA fender washer is an oversized flat washer. <img> Assemble the parts for your kings. The king is the most important piece in a chess set, so it isn't assigned a value. In order to end a chess game, you'll have to trap your opponent's king in threat. The king begins the game between the bishop and queen. Each chess set has one king per color. To make yours, you’ll need:\n2 2½\" long machine bolts (threaded)\n2 castle nuts\n2 hex nuts\n2 fender washers\n2 flat washers <img> ", "Put together your pawns. Take your hex nuts and screw them onto your bolts so the nuts are even with the end of the bolts. Then, use some glue to attach a washer to each bolt head to give each pawn a base.\nChess pawns are usually the smallest pieces on the board, with a wide base, a slim middle, and a round head. <img> Construct your rooks. Thread your castle nuts onto your 1½\" machine bolts so that the bolts extend a ¼\" beyond the nuts. Then, one at a time, use your glue to attach the bolt heads to your washers to create the rooks' base.\nYou may have to hold the bolt head and washer together for a few minutes while the glue sets, otherwise the parts may come loose.\nRooks are sturdy pieces in a normal chess set, with a wide base and a shape that resembles a tower or castle turret. <img> Assemble your knights. Take your hex nuts and thread them onto your 1½\" machine bolts so the nuts are at the halfway point of the threading. Now you can screw your wing nuts onto the bolts until each nut is even with the end of the bolt. Then:\nDab a little glue to the threading just below the wing nut, and then screw your hex nut back toward the end of the bolt until it is even with the wing nut.\nThen, glue your washers to the head of the bolt to make the base.\nKnights traditionally look like a horse's head and neck with a wide base. <img> Make your bishops. Thread your hex nuts onto the 2\" machine bolts so the nuts are ¾ of the way to the head of the bolt. Slip your washer onto the bolt so it rests against the bolt and twist your cap nut onto the bolt's end. Dab glue along the bottom of the cap nuts and then slide the washers up the bolt to glue it against the cap nuts. Then:\nApply glue to the threading below the washers and screw your hex nuts so they're even against the washer.\nComplete the piece by gluing washers to the bolt head for the base.\nWhen gluing, you may need to allow some time for the glue to set.\nTypical chess sets have bishops with a wide base, a slim center, and oblong head with a slash through it.\nYour bishop will end up looking similar to your pawn, but a little bigger and with a few more parts. <img> Erect your queens. Twist one hex nut onto each of your 2½\" bolts until the nuts are as close to the bolt head as you can manage. Apply glue to the top of the nuts and slip a washer onto each bolt to glue the washer to the nut. Screw a second hex nut ¼\" above the first on each bolt and glue a second washer to this nut. Then:\nAttach a cap nut to each bolt end, glue the threading below the cap nuts, and twist the closest hex nut/washer so it's flat against the cap nut.\nApply glue to the threading below the glued hex nut/washer, then screw the free hex nut/washer so it's flat against the first.\nFinally, glue the fender washer to the bolt head to complete the base.\nIn store bought chess sets, the queen is one of the tallest pieces. She has a wide base, a long, slim center, and a crown on top. <img> Build your kings. Thread a hex nuts onto your 2½\" bolts until they are as close to the head as possible. Put glue onto the nuts and slide washers onto the bolt to glue the washers to the nuts. Then:\nUse some more glue to attach one washer to each castle nut, but be careful to keep the threading unobstructed so you can attach the nut.\nScrew on one castle nut/washer onto each bolt so the end of the bolt is even with the nut. Then glue a fender washer to each bolt head to finish the base.\nThe king is usually similar to the queen in height, but with a thicker middle and a larger crown. <img> ", "Separate the pieces. Allow all of the chess pieces to dry overnight. This will give the glue a chance to completely harden. When the glue is dry, separate the pieces into two opposing sides. Each side should contain one king, one queen, two bishops, two knights, two rooks, and eight pawns.\nOnce the pieces are divided, check each individual piece for tightness.\nIf a piece seems loose, you can add some more glue to secure it. <img> Paint your chess pieces. When the glue touch ups have dried, use a clean, soft cloth to wipe away any oil or dirt that may have accumulated while working on your chess pieces. Then paint half the pieces black and half white.\nYou may find it easiest to leave your white pieces unpainted, painting only your black pieces.\nSpray paint works well for painting your chess set. For best results, you may want to choose a spray paint intended for metal.\nIf you want to make a chess set that is less traditional, choose two different contrasting colors. <img> Set up the chess board. After the pieces have had a chance to dry, take out a chessboard and set them up. On the first and last row, arrange your pieces so the corners contain rooks.

[ "Blow dry your hair so it's smooth. Start with freshly shampooed hair, then blow dry it with a paddle brush or Denman brush so it's sleek, smooth, and completely dry. <img> Apply hair serum. Two or three drops of hair serum will make your hair shiny and smooth. Massage it into the full length of your hair, from the roots to the ends.\nIf you prefer, you can apply the hair serum before you dry your hair.\nIf you have highly textured hair, you can use a natural oil such as coconut oil or olive oil. To avoid greasiness, use only a couple drops, and keep it away from your scalp. <img> ", "Brush your hair. Use a thin-toothed comb if you have straight hair. Use a wide-toothed comb or brush if you have curly or afro-textured hair. Slowly run this downward through your ends until there are no more tangles. Repeat with the rest of your hair, starting from a higher point each time.\nA bristle brush also works well for this.\nIf your hair is tangled, start by detangling it with a wide-tooth comb before you brush. <img> Part your hair. Make a part starting right above the center or edge of one eyebrow, and part it over to the equivalent location on the other eyebrow. This will separate the hair on the crown of your head from the rest of your hair. Keep this hair in place with a hair clip. <img> Brush any remaining hair to the back of your head. Brush the remaining hair to a central location at the back of your head, just underneath the part. Use your other hand to hold this hair in place as your brush. Brush until all of this hair is smooth, then secure with an elastic hair tie. <img> Brush the hair on your crown. Remove the clip, then slip the hair tie over the ponytail and push it as close to the scalp as possible. Hold the end of the ponytail firmly with your non-dominant hand. Brush as follows to make your ponytail smooth and tall:\nBrush straight upward until the hair is smooth and bump-free. You may need to briefly relax the hand holding the ponytail so excess hair can slip through. Clamp down again immediately.\nPlace the brush midway up the ponytail. Brush a few strands at a time, first rolling them back slightly, then sweeping them down to the back of your head. Repeat until all the hair in the ponytail has been brushed back. <img> ", "Secure the two section of hair together. Slip another hair tie over the two sections of hair. Adjust your ponytail and the hair around it until you're satisfied with the appearance, brushing down any loose strands or bumps.\nOptionally, take a small portion of the first ponytail and wrap it around the hair ties. You can even braid it first for a fancier appearance. <img> Spray the hair around the ponytail. Press down on your head with one hand, and hair spray the hair around the ponytail. Once your hair is dry, you will have no fly-away strands, and your hair will exude a shiny, sleek, professional style.\nYou can spray the ponytail itself very lightly, or leave it as-is.\nPomades and hold gels are also great options. <img> Finished. <img> " ]

[ "Harvest your beets 7-8 weeks after planting them. Beets can technically be harvested and eaten at any point in their growth cycle, though waiting 7-8 weeks after planting them is standard. Take into account that they’re considered cold-season vegetables, so they’ll grow steadily into late fall and early winter, and very rapidly in the heat of summer.\nThey’re also known to get sweeter in cold temperatures in a process called “chill sweetening!” <img> Check to see that they’re between a golf ball and baseball in size. Generally speaking, when the head of the beetroot is visible above the soil line, it’s ready to be harvested. For the best-tasting beets, choose ones that are 1–3 inches (2.5–7.6 cm) in diameter.\nIf it gets any larger than 3 inches (7.6 cm) in diameter, it won’t be inedible, but it’ll be tough and woody in texture.\nThat being said, beets also tend to get sweeter as they grow in size. If you like them sweet, try harvesting them when they’re 2–3 inches (5.1–7.6 cm) in diameter. <img> Pull the beet out with a twisting motion. If the soil is loose, grab the exposed head of the beetroot and give it a firm tug. A gentle twist may help loosen it, too. If the soil is compact, you’ll need to dig it out with a shovel or garden fork. Get into the dirt beside it with the tool and push down on the handle with one hand to lift it from its bottom, using your other hand to tug and twist its head.\nTry not to pierce the root! It’ll “bleed” and spoil sooner. <img> Use freshly harvested beets within 2-3 days. Beets should be eaten soon after they’re picked. Before using them, consider that their size is usually a good indicator of their flavor and texture, and thus how to best prepare them for eating. Here are some ideas on how to best utilize them based on their size:\nBeets that are closer to a golf ball in size are considered “baby beets” and are best for cooking in a pan, since their skin is tender and doesn’t need to be peeled off. You could even cook them with their edible and nutritious leaves still attached!\nBeets that are closer to a baseball in size are better for roasting, as they may be too large to cook in a pan. Their skins will be tougher and need to be peeled beforehand. Again, these ones also tend to be sweeter.\nIf you're not using them immediately, larger beets that have developed thick skins will keep best in long-term storage. Check out the next section of this article for ideas on how to go about storing them. <img> Harvest up to ⅓ of its leaves periodically. Beet leaves are edible and nutritious on their own. Trim a few leaves off, at least 1 inch (2.5 cm) from the root to prevent bleeding, at any point during its growth cycle. Be careful to not pull them all off at once, since the beet needs them to photosynthesize and grow its tasty root. Only take ⅓ of its leaves at a time to allow for regrowth.\nLeaves that are 2–3 inches (5.1–7.6 cm) long can be eaten raw. Anything longer than that should be cooked to soften their texture, as they will get tougher as they grow.\nThe leaves are actually very similar to a cousin of the beet, Swiss chard, in flavor and texture. <img> ", "Prepare your beetroots for long-term storage. Regardless of how you choose to store them, you’ll want to properly prepare your beets in the same way to reduce loss of hydration and the possibility of rot. Snip leaves off at least 1 inch (2.5 cm) from their base to prevent the beetroot from losing water to keeping its leaves alive. Wipe away excess dirt, rather than rinsing it under water, so as to not speed up the rotting process.\nIf you feel you must rinse them, just be sure they’re extra dry before putting them in storage.\nDon’t snip off the taproot dangling at the bottom of the beet! This will cause bleeding.\nDamaged beets, such as bruised ones or ones that show signs of bleeding, will not keep well and should be used as soon as possible. <img> Keep them in the refrigerator for 7-10 days. Like most vegetables, keeping beets in the fridge will slightly extend their lives. After going through the regular storage preparation process, place them in a perforated plastic bag in your fridge at or below 41 °F (5 °C).\nRemember to always keep vegetables above and away from meats to prevent cross contamination. <img> Boil them and keep them in the freezer for up to 10 months. Raw beetroots become grainy in the freezer, so it’s a good idea to boil them first. After they’re tender enough to pierce, place them in ice water to stop the cooking process. Once cooled, remove any remaining stems, peel their skins off, and chop them into cubes. Put them in a freezer bag, squeeze out excess air, and keep them in the freezer.\nSmaller beets may need to be boiled for 25-30 minutes, and larger beets for 45-50 minutes.\nConsider flash-freezing the individual cubes before putting them in a freezer bag to prevent them from sticking together. Place the cubes on a cooking tray and place it in the freezer. After they’re all frozen, compile them into the same freezer bag. <img> Pack them in a makeshift root cellar for up to 5 months. Place them 2 inches (5.1 cm) apart from each other in a plastic container full of dampish sand or sawdust, with the lid lightly on to allow for air circulation. Keep the container in a cold place, like a garage or basement. This method mimics the mechanics of actual root cellars, which have been used since ancient times to store and keep root vegetables fresh without the assistance of technology.\nPlacing them apart from each other is to prevent rot from spreading. Check on them often to see if any are showing signs of deterioration. Remove these.\nIf you have an actual root cellar, store them in there as you would with any other root vegetable! <img> " ]

[ "Prepare an expense plan. You can use a spreadsheet or just make a list that helps you keep track of your tournament expenses. You need to have written documentation for your tournament costs so that you can keep your finances organized and easily explain the costs to your funding sources. Insert all of your figures into a spreadsheet, including a contingency fund. Calculate a total cost for the tournament so that you can plan how to fund it.\nTry an Excel spreadsheet for easy calculations.\nTry Google sheets that you can access from any device, making it easier to input expenses from your phone. <img> Find out the market rates of rental facilities. You need to have a general idea of how much it will cost to rent fields for your tournament. Contact your local government, schools, and athletic clubs to ask about available fields and the rental costs. Insert the number range on your spreadsheet.\nWhile you're asking about costs, consider getting information about rules and policies. <img> Get an estimate for trophy costs. Your tournament will need trophies, so contact local shops that sell them or go online. You will need to decide if you want to give participation trophies or just rank trophies. Estimate the number of trophies by multiplying the projected number of teams by the average number of team members.\nYour anticipated number of teams for budget purposes should be the most you can accommodate or the number of teams in your area if you're keeping it local. <img> Calculate the cost of hiring personnel. You will need referees, concession stand operators, security, cleaning crew, and people to help during game transitions. Ask other local organizers for rates they pay or go online for a pay range.\nConsider asking for volunteers to referee, clean up, or work the concession stand. You may be able to make it a condition for entering the festival that the team provides a certain number of parent volunteers during times the teams are not playing. <img> Determine concessions costs. A concession stand can bring in a lot of money for your organization, but you need to supply it with snacks and drinks. Calculate these costs and any related costs, such as renting a booth or table.\nRemember to ask about permits and codes if you plan to cook food in the concession stand.\nConsider ordering pre-made food such as pizza, and include that expense in your budget. <img> Look for sponsors. Sponsors can offset a lot of your costs if you’re willing to promote other organizations or events. You may even be able to partner with another organization to share the costs and the proceeds. Make sure that you get any sponsorship deals in writing and fulfill your side of the bargain.\nYou may be able to sell advertisements as a form of partnership. These ads can be placed on t-shirts, signs, or promotional materials that you use to advertise the tournament. Consider placing signs around the edges of the field. <img> ", "Choose a date. Before you can book your venue, you’ll need to choose a date so that you can make sure that the location you want is available on the day or weekend you plan to host the tournament. Your tournament should not conflict with other tournaments, and it will probably attract more established teams if you choose a date during the normal soccer season in your region.\nYou may need to have your tournament over a weekend, depending on how many fields you have and how many teams you plan to accommodate. Make sure that you budget enough time for games. <img> Find an available field. Your tournament will need to allow for at least one playing field, though more fields will allow for more teams to enter. Refer to the list of fields you called during budgeting to choose the best one.\nCall local facilities, particularly those that already host soccer games.\nConsider how many teams will be playing in your tournament to help you find your field needs.\nYou may be able to get the field for free as a sponsorship opportunity. For example, a local school may allow you to use their field if you promote them as a sponsor. <img> Make sure that your field has seating. Your tournament will draw spectators who will want a comfortable means of watching the teams play. Don’t count on your spectators to bring their own seating. You need to choose a field that has seating, such as stands. <img> Check for adequate bathrooms. The field you choose should have nearby bathrooms. If you think that you won’t have enough bathrooms to accommodate your event, consider renting porta potties.\nYou may also want to provide changing facilities. <img> Ask about the requirements to use the field. You will likely need to purchase insurance for your tournament’s use of the field, so ask the field owner how much insurance you will need to purchase. You also need to find out what you need to do to prepare the field and clean it after the tournament. <img> ", "Name your tournament. Choose a name that will attract attention and tell people what kind of tournament it is. Depending on the size of your area or the type of your organization, you may want to include the area’s or organization’s name in the tournament. Teams are more likely to want to participate in a tournament that sounds elite or like it’s for a good cause, so keep that in mind.\nFor example, if you are raising money for something like a charity or school playground, you could call your tournament “St. Marks Playground Benefit Soccer Tournament.”\nAlternatively, a tournament in a large area could be called “Uniting Houston Soccer Tournament.”\nIf you want to try something fun, you could name it “Just for Kicks Soccer Tournament.”\nAn elite tournament name could be “Bay City Cup Soccer Tournament.” <img> Recruit volunteers. Using volunteers will allow you to collect more proceeds since you won’t have to hire as much staff. Contact local colleges and civic organizations to look for volunteers to help with refereeing matches, serving concessions, picking up trash, providing directions to guests, monitoring the area, reminding people of the rules, and other basic duties.\nIf you plan to require teams to supply volunteers, consider that when recruiting.\nIt’s better to have too many volunteers than too few.\nDon’t use volunteers for security unless they work in law enforcement or security. Instead, rent a few security officers by the hour. <img> Set tournament rules. By setting rules, you can make sure that you fulfill the obligations that you agreed to when renting the field, such as keeping it clean and not destroying the turf. You can also set standards for good sportsmanship and protect yourself in case of an incident. For example, having established rules can allow you to remove someone who is behaving inappropriately.\nExample rules include: No littering, no hitting, no profanity, no altering of facility property, and no food on the field. <img> Contact local police and fire departments. Make sure that the authorities know about your tournament in case there’s an emergency. You can also ask them if they have any recommendations to keep your tournament safe or if there are any laws that you may not be aware of relating to tournaments like yours.\nYou may want to hire off-duty police officers to serve as your security personnel. <img> ", "Advertise your tournament. Tell the public about your tournament by posting signs or ads about your tournament. Ask local clubs and schools if you can include your tournament in their newsletter or if you can post the information in a location where soccer players or coaches will see it. Be sure to provide details on how to register the teams, such as your email contact and telephone number.\nHang fliers in local sporting good stores or near athletic clubs.\nPublish ads in the newspaper and on local internet sites. <img> Call local soccer organizations. Go to where the teams are to tell them about your tournament. If your area doesn’t have a local soccer organization, call the local athletic clubs or little league organizations, depending on your target age group. <img> Organize your own teams. If your area doesn’t have established teams, you can still have a tournament if you encourage the community to create their own teams just for your tournament. This can work especially well for adults since many adults enjoyed playing sports as youths but no longer get to play on organized teams as adults. Teams can be built around workplaces, churches, and social groups. <img> Register teams. Have each team provide registration details, including the team name, a team contact, and a roster of players. If your tournament is ordering t-shirts, it’s a good idea to have players submit their sizes during registration to make it easier to distribute shirts during the tournament. You can register teams by email or via a website that specializes in registrations.\nAsk teams to pay all or part of the entry fee at registration so that teams don’t back out.\nGet a team roster so that you know how many trophies to order.\nGet t-shirt sizes so that you can create a bundle for each team, making it easier to distribute the shirts at check-in. <img> ", "Create a schedule. After registrations are in, build a schedule and tournament bracket that allows each team proper play. Make sure that you have enough time for each game, as well as time to clean up between matches. When you finalize the schedule, make copies so that each team will have access to it on the day or weekend of the tournament. <img> Purchase supplies. Wait to buy supplies until after you have an idea about how many teams will participate. Supplies will include trophies, concessions food, signs, check-in materials, and t-shirts if you have them. You may need to order food in advance, so contact your supplier to find out what you need to do to be ready on tournament day. <img> Set up the field in advance. To be professional, your tournament should be ready to go before participants start to arrive. Go out to the field the day before to make sure that the facility looks good and then get to the field early in the morning to set up the check in table and concessions stands.\nTell your volunteers the exact time that they should arrive so that they don’t assume that it’s at the start of the tournament. Otherwise, you may be setting up alone. <img> Assign all volunteers a specific duty. Your volunteers need to know what their job is and how to properly do it. While some can do double-duty, don’t just expect your volunteers to do every job. Set them times to be on duty and where they should be working.\nFor example, a volunteer assignment could be 1 pm-3 pm in the concession stand or 8 am-10 am providing directions near the entrance. <img> Check in the teams at a designated location. A team representative should be expected to come check in with you or your tournament staff. Put the check-in location in a central area, such as near the gates to the field or where most people enter the field from the parking lot. Provide a copy of the tournament rules, the playing schedule, and a map to each team representative.\nTry using a table or booth to make the check-in area more noticeable.\nIf your tournament has t-shirts, you can distribute shirts during check-in.

[ "Learn what soldering is. Put into basic terms, soldering is the process of melting a metal onto other metal components in order to bind them.\nSoldering differs from welding. In welding, the component pieces are melted together; in soldering, a softer metal with a lower melting point is used to connect them.Because soldering doesn't melt components, it's useful for more delicate applications, such as electronics work, or plumbing.\nThe purpose of soldering is to bind two other components. Solder can be thought of as a sort of “metal glue.” It can be used to fill in gaps or hold pieces in place, but doesn't serve any more complicated purpose.\nSince solder is metallic, it conducts electricity, which is another reason it's so popular for connecting electronic components. <img> Use solder to bind things. Solder is the name of the actual material used in soldering. Historically, many solders contained lead or cadmium, but that has been recently phased out for health reasons.\nSolder is typically composed of two or more metals combined into an alloy. Silver, antimony, copper, tin, and zinc are all common ingredients.\nSolder is soft and flexible. It generally comes in a coil, or spool, that can be stretched and bent.\nSolder has a low melting point, and cools extremely quickly after it's been melted. (350F - 500F)\nSolder can contain a flux core of natural rosin (tree sap) or a chemical acid. The metal of the solder encircles the core, like a tube.\nThe purpose of the core is to serve as a flux, or purifying agent. The flux prevents oxidation in the solder as it cools, keeping it strong and pure. <img> Use a soldering iron to heat the solder. Soldering irons come in various configurations, but are essentially straight tools with tips that can be heated to melt solder in place.\nMost soldering irons typically heat to between 800 and 900 degrees Fahrenheit, so exercise caution when using one.\nSoldering irons tend to catch a veneer of solder after each use, which can oxidize and reduce the iron's effectiveness on the next use. To clean this off easily, secure a wet sponge before you turn your iron on, and gently drag the tip across the sponge once the iron is heated.\nA layer of fresh solder on the tip can actually make a soldering iron more effective. This process is called “tinning,” and is done by allowing a bit of fresh solder to melt evenly over the tip before use.\nBetter models of soldering iron come with a heat control that can be adjusted for different projects and types of solder. <img> Use other equipment to assist in soldering. Soldering isn't especially dangerous or difficult if you take sensible precautions. To solder as efficiently and effectively as possible, there are a few useful pieces of equipment you should have.\nClamps or alligator clips, for holding components in place while you solder them\nThick gloves, to protect your hands from the tip of the iron as you feed solder to it\nSafety glasses or goggles, to prevent any errant solder flecks from hitting your eyes\nA solder stand to rest your soldering iron on between applications. <img> Turn on the lights. Be sure you can see everything clearly so that your work will be as accurate as possible.\nIf you need to solder somewhere without much light, bring a bright light (such as a portable lamp) with you. <img> Prepare adequate ventilation. Even without lead in the mix, solder and flux can produce harmful fumes. Avoid breathing in rosin or metal fumes by opening a window, turning on a fan, and generally doing whatever you can to keep air fresh. <img> Don't solder for too long in one sitting. Soldering is a fast process, and it doesn't generally take more than a few minutes to do what needs to be done, but if you find yourself spending more than 15 or 20 minutes on a project, take regular breaks for fresh air. <img> ", "Pick your iron. Most electronic component soldering is done to fasten components to a PCB (printed circuit board). Therefore, an iron with a smaller tip is recommended. Consider a small flathead tip for ordinary work, or a conical point tip for fine detail soldering.\nSoldering irons don't have exchangeable tips, so you'll need to buy the one(s) you want. Fortunately, they start at around $15 in price, and a good quality iron can be had for around twice that.\nA typical soldering iron for electronics work will be a 40-watt iron that has a temperature (or a temperature setting) of 900 degrees. This allows the iron to easily melt electronics solder without damaging the small wires of the components themselves. <img> Pick your solder. Both solid wire and Rosin-cored solders area available at stores and online. Be sure the solder you choose will bond to the materials you are trying to solder. Using solid wire solder may require a separate flux to break the oxide coating and allow the solder to bond.\n60/40 tin and lead solder used to be the standard for electronics soldering, however due to the toxicity of lead it has fallen out of favor. Tin and silver solder is generally preferred today. The silver raises the melting point slightly to 430F, raises the price, but helps the solder to bind more smoothly.\nThe numbers in solder descriptions are percentages of the element in the solder alloy. (60Sn/40Pb = 60% tin and 40% lead) <img> Prepare the iron. Plug in the iron and let it warm up on its stand for a few minutes. Be sure to gently wipe it across a sponge if it's been used previously, as described above. Tin it (as described above) once it's clean. When you're ready, set out your components, clips, and solder. <img> Set a piece in place. Put a component in the spot you want to solder it. If soldering to a PCB, be sure the wires of the component are appropriately placed through its pinholes.\nFor most components, use a small clip or clamp to hold them in place once you've set them. <img> Pick up the solder wire. Hold a length of solder with your non-dominant hand. Use a long length to ensure that you'll be able to keep your hand well away from the tip of the iron. <img> Heat the component. Touch the tip of the iron to the component you want to solder. Only touch it for about one second. This warms the metal so that it can handle the solder more flexibly.\nQuickly touch your solder wire to the soldering point, and apply the iron to it. The solder should melt immediately. Soldering to a PCB board should never require more than about 3-4 seconds' worth of molten solder.\nIf more solder is required to secure the connection, feed it smoothly with your hand.\nYour solder should pool loosely, forming concave sides as it spreads around the component wire. It shouldn't ball up or look lumpy. <img> Finish the solder. Pull the solder wire away first, wait one second, and then pull the iron away from the soldering point to let the molten solder cool. Again, this should only take 5 or 10 seconds at most.\nBe sure not to blow on the solder or otherwise try to help it cool. This can make it lumpy or add impurities. <img> Repeat until finished. Repeat the above steps for each point you wish to solder.\nRe-tin your iron's tip every several applications, and once more before you put the iron away. This helps extend the life of the iron. <img> ", "Be prepared. Soldering copper pipes isn't hard, but it is considerably more involved than soldering electronics, and requires different equipment. People typically engage in pipe soldering to seal joints between sections of pipe, such as elbow turns. <img> Use a torch. Instead of a soldering iron, a propane torch is generally recommended for soldering copper pipes together. These are widely available at hardware stores.\nSpecialized soldering irons can be used for pipe soldering, but a propane torch is just as effective for most jobs, and much cheaper. <img> Get appropriate solder. Manufacturers offer specialized solder wire for soldering pipes. It tends to be much thicker, usually 1/8\" in diameter. Pipe solders often contain an acid flux, however solid wire works as well. Solid wire solder may need a separate flux.\nAbsolutely avoid using leaded solder for soldering your pipes. Be sure to closely read the label to determine the alloy composition. Pipe solders tend to compose mostly tin and may also contain antimony, copper, and/or silver. <img> Have an abrasive item on hand. To be sure your solder takes, it's helpful to clean the pipe beforehand by scouring it with an emery cloth, sandpaper, or fine steel wool. <img> Cut off the water. Turn off the water to your plumbing before you begin work. This will allow you to work with your pipes without fear of flooding or spraying the room.\nBefore you turn the water off, pour a bucket of water. Keep the bucket nearby in case your torch catches anything on fire. <img> Cut your pipe. If you're installing new piping, use a tube cutter to cut any pipe up to an inch in diameter. Tube cutters are available at hardware stores.\nTake it slowly. A tube cutter works best with slow, steady movement. Go too quickly and you might dent the pipe.\nFor larger pipe, you'll have to use a hacksaw. File off the ragged edges afterward.\nOnce the pipes are cut, fit them into whatever joints you'll need to solder tight. <img> Clean up the pipe. Using an emery cloth or similar abrasive item, thoroughly abrade the area of pipe where you'll be applying solder to smooth and clean it.\nA smooth and clean surface will allow the solder to flow into the joint smoothly and seal it evenly. <img> Solder the pipe. Fire up your propane torch and apply heat to the pipe you plan to solder.\nMaintain even heat by moving the flame all around the work area.\nOnce the pipe is good and hot, apply the tip of your solder wire to the place you need to seal. It should melt right away.\nHold the solder on the opposite side of the pipe from your torch. It should flow around the joint and fill it up all the way around.\nLet the joint cool. It will cool quickly. Move on to the next joint that needs sealing, if necessary. <img> Check your work. Once you're finished, wait a few minutes and then turn the water back on. Run water through the pipes you soldered and check for leaks. If there are any, you'll have to repeat the process. <img> " ]

[ "Say hello! Approach people you’re interested in conversing with and simply say hello. Offer your name, and ask theirs. While it may feel awkward to start a conversation without an explicit reason for doing so, people are usually happy to be approached in a friendly manner.\nIf you’re in a group and hope to speak with one person in particular, don’t feel rushed to do so. Just sitting, listening, and enjoying one another’s company is a great way to become comfortable around other people.\nWait for a moment to introduce yourself unobtrusively. Remember, silence is a form of communication. Even in social settings, a comfortable silence indicates confidence and contentment that people will respond to positively.\nIn a group setting, ask each person that you haven’t already met for their name. This indicates a general friendliness that will convey to others that you're social and accessible. <img> Inquire about the person you’re curious about. People like to talk about what they’re interested in, and questions that are geared accordingly can be great conversation starters. Make sure to bring up some topics that you are interested in as well, such as your hobbies and interests, so that you can have a quality 2-way conversation. There are plenty of specific options. \nAsk the person you’re curious about what they do for fun. Not only does this get a conversation going, it shows that you’re curious about what they’re interested in and how they spend their time.\nAsk them what they do with their life, but don't be specific. Say something like, “So, what do you do with your days?” This allows people to answer however they want.\nIf you’re looking for a particularly interesting question, try asking them about a recent quote they came across that changed how they viewed the world. <img> Hold off on the heavy-hitting conversations. Refrain from talking about your radical political or religious beliefs as soon as you meet someone. Deeply personal topics should also be avoided, as well as private information.\nEven if it seems like you might share a certain point of view with another person, you don’t need to immediately re-iterate your shared belief.\nHold off on conversations about worldviews or beliefs, even if you share them. Save them for a deeper conversation later on. <img> Speak with respect. Watch your word choice and put effort into being courteous until you know a bit about the other person’s sense of humor or any particular sensitivities. There are a few conversational manners to always remember.\nNever cut another person off while they are speaking. Instead of thinking about what you’re going to say next, focus on what they are saying. Try to stay present in the moment, such as by practicing mindfulness. Notice your feet on the floor and how they feel to stay present and grounded.\nDon’t raise your voice. Though it may simply be the effect of excitement, speaking loudly may intimidate some people, or make you seem overzealous.\nConcentrate on speaking clearly. Not only do you want to make sure you are not misunderstood, it’s much easier to listen to someone who is enunciating well.\nA good concept to keep in mind is that you’re not competing for space within a conversation, you’re sharing it! <img> ", "Respond thoughtfully. Give a detailed answer when your new friend asks you a question. If you are unsure of how to respond to something, ask for clarity – especially if they had asked a question. The most important thing is to respond genuinely, as this will convey that you value the conversation, as well as the other person’s attention. \nElaborate on your answers. If someone asks what your favorite part of a movie was, don't just say \"The ending!\" Explain why you liked it and maybe what you think will happen next.\nSay what you actually think, not what you think they want to hear. Never assume what other people admire or expect. <img> Listen actively. One of the most important steps in being both a good conversationalist and a good friend: Be a good listener. At it’s most simply, active listening is simply paying attention to what the other person is saying. But to truly actively listen is to give them the time and space to speak openly, to actively learn about another person, and to give yourself the opportunity to fully consider what they have to say.\nMake eye contact throughout the conversation, but don’t stare into the other person’s eyes.\nRecognize that many people simply wait for their turn to speak in conversation, and don’t actively listen to what their conversational partner is saying.\nPush your own thoughts out of way while another person is speaking. Focus on their points, and allow a few moments of silence when they finish speaking, both to ensure they're done speaking and to allow yourself to consider a thoughtful response. <img> Limit your use of filler words. These include \"um,\" \"like,\" and \"you know\". While these words are entirely appropriate to use occasionally, if you say them too often, it will seem as though you are distracted or uninterested in explaining yourself clearly. <img> Know that people think differently about things. Even people you expect to get along with or immediately admire may have significantly different points of view. Differences of opinion can actually enrich a friendship, and can help both of your individual minds to grow. \nIf you don't agree with someone's opinion, and want to share this, be sure you have a reason and be polite about it.\nIf you don't agree about a minor thing, consider the universal truth that you could always simply let it be. <img> Know how to end the conversation. A friendly, positive conclusion to a conversation will leave you both feeling glad to have met one another, and hoping to meet again. A great way to conclude is recall a point in the conversation you just had that you both resonated with. There are lots of options; the key is positivity.\nSay something clever or insightful you had thought of and wanted to say earlier, but had forgotten.\nAsk about your friend’s plans for the rest of the day and wish them well. For instance, you could say, “Well, I’m off to work in a bit here. What’s the rest of your day look like?”\nDefault to humor. Tease yourself for not wanting to leave the conversation, while explaining you hope to meet again. Try, “Hey, it’s been great speaking with you, and I wish we could chat with you all day, but I have to run.”\nUse a friendly parting gesture as an opportunity to offer an open-ended invitation to spend further time together by saying something like, “When might I see you again?” <img> ", "Make and keep plans to meet again. If you’re interested in spending more time around one another, make plans to do so! This will usually be rather apparent, but even it’s not, feel free to make the offer.\nOne of the easiest and safest ways to invite a new friend to meet up again is by inviting them to a group event sometime in the upcoming week.\nIf you know you’ll be attending an event at a certain place and time, and others are welcome, mention it and encourage them to attend as well. <img> Have an interesting conversation topic ready. If you recently met someone that you get along with and made plans to see each other again, have something in mind to talk about. There are few dependable ways to think of your own conversation topics. For example:\nThink about what might be relevant to your plans. For example, if you’re going to a sporting event, read the latest news in regards to the team that's playing.\nReflect on recent events, both local or global. People’s different worldviews often provide colorful interpretations about things that have happened elsewhere in the world.\nThink about seasonally-relevant conversation topics. If Halloween is coming up, ask your new friend what they plan to dress up as, or what their best-ever costume was.\nTry an old standby: “What’s the next thing you’re looking forward to?” Remember to ask follow-up questions, like \"What do you plan on doing there?\"\nAsk about people you both know, such as a their family or a mutual friend. <img> Appreciate others’ individuality. If you admire someone, there’s likely a good reason for these positive sentiments. These are likely the reasons you may come to appreciate a person’s presence in your life. However, whomever they are, they will certainly be different than you first expect. This is partly why it’s so fun to get to know new people.\nRecognize that every new person you meet will shape your understanding of people in general. No one is exactly like anybody else, and nor should they be!\nDon't compare new friends to other friends you've had in the past. Focus on the attributes that each of your friends have that make them who they are. Appreciate how their individuality contributes to your understanding of the world. <img> Remember and recall previous conversations. It is incredibly meaningful when we recall the conversations we have with one another and are able to pick up right where we left off – both literally, and metaphorically, in terms of developing a new friendship.\nIf you know that you'll be talking to your friend in the future, note the topics you spoke about. Be prepared to bring them up again in the future.\nCheck out something they mentioned, such as a certain band, and contemplate what you might agree with or add to the observations they shared with you. Make sure to follow up on this by mentioning it the next time you see them. This will show them that you have a genuine interest in them and that you keep your word.\nIndicate that you’re excited to see them again by recalling a positive moment from your earlier conversation. <img> " ]

[ "Focus your criticism on a particular situation. This means that rather than critiquing someone as a person, or a pattern in their behavior, you should keep the criticism focused on one incident. This way, the person receiving the criticism will understand that the problem is not with them as a person, and that they don’t necessarily always do things poorly.\nKeep criticism in the present. If you’re talking about something that happened long ago, or relating a current situation to something in the past, that may not be constructive.\nRefrain from saying things like, “This is the same thing you did last time, too,” or “I’ve noticed that you always do things that way.” Statements like that are not constructive and can be hurtful.\nInstead, you can say, \"I noticed that you were late this morning,\" or, \"I noticed that your presentation today hadn't been edited.\"\nYou want to avoid making judgments about the person's character or motives. <img> Keep criticism specific. Constructive criticism addresses specific flaws, and provides advice on how to improve on them. The receiver of critique is left with a clear idea of what actions to take in order to do better. An example of the difference between specific and vague criticism is:\nSpecific: \"Some of the women feel that they're being talked over. It would be helpful if you spoke up if you noticed group members interrupting each other, or brushing off what others had to say. If certain members are feeling hesitant, you might even ask for their opinion to make sure people know their thoughts are valued.\"\nVague: \"You aren't showing enough leadership. Your group is unsuccessful, and its atmosphere is unpleasant, particularly for the women. I expect to see better morale and more equal participation.\" <img> Use objective language. Objective language lets the person know that you’re not judging them. Objective language means simply stating the facts, or things you’ve observed. Your feedback does not negatively evaluate their personal attributes or abilities. An example of the difference between objective and judgemental language when talking to an artist is: \nObjective: \"The anatomy in this picture resembles a child’s, which contrasts with the more adult-like face. If she had a smaller head-to-body ratio and slightly longer limbs, she’d look more adult. Spending some extra time with anatomy books may be helpful to you.\"\nJudgemental: \"To be honest, you're lousy at drawing. All ego and no work ethic. I question how much commitment you have to art.\" <img> Observe the impact of your comments. If you care about your comments being constructive, you'll want to make sure they had the desired impact. If the person seems particularly offended or hurt, you may have been too harsh.\nIf the person doesn't seem to take your comments to heart, you can ask them if they understood, and why they aren't making changes.\nIt's possible that you were too vague or gentle and the person didn't think the feedback was meant to incite direct change. <img> ", "Look for the value of the criticism. If the criticism is truly constructive, it will be given with the intention that you or your work improves somehow. See if you can see how the criticism is geared toward that. If the criticism does not offer clear guidelines on how you can improve something, it may not be constructive. An example of the difference between valuable constructive criticism and criticism that isn’t valuable at home is:\nValuable: \"I wish you would put the dishes in the dishwasher when you're done with them. When I come home and see a sink full of dishes, I feel frustrated and exhausted and I feel like that makes spending quality time together difficult.\" This makes it clear why the criticism is being given, how the person can change their behavior, and what the value of that change would be.\nNot valuable: \"You're such a slob! I hate how you always leave the dishes to me.\" This does not offer a solution or make it clear what a change would do for either party. <img> Consider how specific the criticism is. The criticism should be clearly about a specific behavior or product, not you as a person. If you’re unclear about whether the criticism is specific, ask for clarification. You may discover that the critic simply hadn’t been clear, or that the criticism isn’t in fact constructive.\nYou can say something like, “I hear that you’re upset with my work this week. Can you tell me exactly which reports you had trouble with, and why?”\nIf the person has been specific but you suspect there is more that they’re not saying, you can say, “Thanks for clarifying that I need to spend more time on this week’s report. Is there anything else you’re concerned about?” <img> Listen actively. Receiving criticism can be difficult. You may feel embarrassed, hurt, or even angry if you feel you’re being unjustly criticized. However, unless you listen carefully, you won’t know whether the criticism is actually constructive or not. Once you know that it is, you can make changes so that things will go more smoothly in the future.\nParaphrase what the person critiquing you says. Repeat what you understand back to them, so that they can see that you’re taking it in. It will also help you both clarify that you understand.\nAsk questions if you don’t understand. You can always say, “Can you give me an example?”\nAvoid becoming defensive. You may want to argue or defend yourself. However, if the criticism is constructive, remember that the best answer is to say, “Thanks for letting me know. I’m going to do my best to make those changes in the future.” <img> Make the changes suggested in the criticism. Constructive criticism always aims to help you grow and improve. It should also be specific. Therefore, if you make the changes to the specific situation, and do the work to improve and grow, that should satisfy the person who critiqued you.\nOnce you’ve made the changes, check back in. You can say, “So, I made those changes. Have you noticed a difference? Do you have any further suggestions for me?”\nIf you make the changes but the person critiquing you still seems unsatisfied, they may simply have a personal problem with you and their criticism may not actually be constructive. <img> Pause before reacting. You may feel reactionary to feedback, even if it's constructive. Before you respond to feedback, take a moment to let it sink in. That way, even if your reaction is justifiably strong, you'll have the calm and presence of mind to respond from a grounded place, rather than rashly.\nCount to ten and take some deep breaths before responding.\nIf you're receiving the criticism face to face, you may need to let yourself be silent for a moment before responding. That's okay. You're never required to respond to someone immediately. You can even say, \"Excuse me, I need to think about that for a moment.\" <img> ", "Use the “sandwich” method. The “sandwich” method of criticism is very popular because it offers positive feedback and constructive feedback at the same time. This makes it easier for people to receive without getting defensive or feeling badly about themselves.\nBegin by mentioning positive things about the person or their work. Then mention the parts that need work, and then end on a positive note. This helps keep the receiver's self-esteem strong and keeps them interested in improving.\nAn example of a critique sandwich in a public speaking class could be, \"I thought your speech was really convincing and motivating. It started off a little slow, and you could probably shave off a minute from the beginning to retain audience interest. Nonetheless, you made really strong arguments and your delivery was clear and convincing. I saw the audience nodding along by the end.\" <img> Choose the right time and place. The context in which feedback is given can have a big role in how it’s received. If you’re the person giving the criticism, ask to speak to the person privately, at a time when they don’t feel too stressed or upset. If you’re the one receiving the criticism, you can ask to speak somewhere that you feel comfortable at a time that is good for you.\nNever give criticism in front of peers or coworkers.\nYou can always say, “Is this a good time?” or, “Could this wait until a better time?” <img> Communicate how you feel about the criticism. If you feel you’re not being given constructive criticism, let the person know. You can explain the way the criticism makes you feel by using “I” statements. You don’t need to reject the criticism, simply let the person know what is difficult for you about it.\nAt work, you can say, “When you said that I’m always late, I felt that was unfair. My timecard actually shows that I only showed up late once last week.”\nYou can also say something like, “I understand that my past behavior was really upsetting. However, I’d like to focus on the incident you’re talking about that happened this morning. Can we figure out a way that something like that could be avoided in the future?” <img> Make sure the criticism reflects the subject’s goals. If you’re the one giving feedback, make sure you think about what the other person’s intentions are. They’re more likely to take the feedback into account if it has to do with their personal goals. For example, if they want to get promoted to another department, let them know that the changes you’re requesting would be required for a promotion.\nIf the person wants to be well-liked in the office, you can say, “I really want everyone here to get along and respect each other. When one person doesn’t pull their weight, that becomes difficult.”\nYou can also frame the feedback in terms of a goal that you both share, like team success or client happiness. <img> Recognize the role of tone. Tone can vary widely in constructive critique, but there is a difference between blunt and cruel. Because a constructive critic cares about improvement, they will not tear down the recipient. Ideally, constructive criticism is gentle enough to be taken in by the recipient. Blunt feedback can be okay, too. However, some people may bristle at it. Cruel feedback should always be avoided. For example, when working with a designer:\nGentle: \"This is a really good start. While it would be great in most situations, for a company presentation it's a little brightly-colored. I would recommend using a plain white, off-white, or black font with a simple background, and maybe substituting some of the clip art with photos. Still, I found the text itself highly readable, and the organization is perfect.\"\nBlunt: \"Your power point had too much silly clip art and contrasting colors. Give me plainer text colors and more photos. Then you'll be good to go.\"\nCruel: \"That looked like it was made by a thirteen-year-old who just discovered MS Paint. Too many bright colors and wacky pictures.\" <img> " ]

[ "Use coconut oil for sautéing, pan frying, or roasting. Since it has a high smoke point and mild flavor, coconut oil is a great choice for a variety of cooking methods. If you’re sautéing or pan frying, use an equal amount of coconut oil as whatever other fat the recipe calls for (butter, olive oil, vegetable oil, etc.).\nTo roast vegetables with coconut oil, melt 1-2 tablespoons (15-30 ml) of the oil—or whatever amount your recipe calls for—over low heat in a small saucepan, then drizzle it over your veggies on the roasting pan. Season and roast the vegetables according to your chosen recipe. <img> Stir coconut oil into coffee, hot tea, or hot chocolate. Simply make your hot beverage of choice as usual, then stir in 1 tsp (5 ml) of coconut oil before adding any cream or sweetener. The hot liquid will quickly melt the congealed oil.\nThe coconut oil will create a bit of an oily texture (especially on the surface) and impart a mild flavor to the beverage. If you don’t care for the results, try replacing half of the coconut oil with unsalted butter (or just cut back on the coconut oil and don’t substitute anything else).\nIs it worth making your morning coffee a bit oily by adding coconut oil? It might be. It's possible, but not certain, that coconut oil may help reduce cholesterol, burn fat, kill harmful bacteria, and improve brain function, among other benefits. <img> Blend coconut oil into your favorite smoothie recipe. Just spoon in 1-2 tbsp (15-30 ml) of coconut oil with the other ingredients and blend them together. Congealed coconut oil may leave small chunks in your smoothie—if this bothers you, melt the coconut oil on the stovetop using low heat, then drizzle it into the smoothie ingredients before blending.\nCoconut oil tastes great with smoothies that use bananas and other tropical fruits. <img> Substitute coconut oil for other oils when baking. If your baking recipe calls for another liquid oil, like canola or vegetable oil, use an equal amount of melted coconut oil. You probably won’t notice any difference in flavor or texture.\nIf you want to substitute coconut oil for a solid fat like shortening, butter, or margarine, use a 1:1 ratio of congealed coconut oil and the other solid fat, but add only 75% of the amount called for in the recipe. For instance, instead of 4 tbsp (60 ml) of butter, add 3 tbsp (45 ml) total of coconut oil and butter—1.5 tbsp (~23 ml) of each. <img> Spread coconut oil on toast or pancakes instead of butter. Coconut oil will soften to a spreadable consistency as it approaches 76 °F (24 °C), at which point you can easily spread it onto a muffin or corn-on-the-cob. It provides a nice change of pace to the taste of butter!\nOr, try melting 1-2 tbsp (15-30 ml) of coconut oil and drizzling it over your popcorn! <img> ", "Buy coconut oil that is organic, extra virgin, and unprocessed. Use a coconut oil that is as natural and unadulterated as possible. Avoid jars with terms like “bleached,” “hydrogenated,” “refined,” or “deodorized.” The term “cold-pressed” is a good thing to see on the label, though, as this is a natural process for extracting the oil.\nLook for this coconut oil at stores that sell natural food and health products. It typically comes in a glass jar and looks like a whitish gel or paste.\nCoconut oil is a super ingredient that offers many benefits for the skin. It is very hydrating and has anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial properties. <img> Massage in 1 teaspoon (5 ml) of coconut oil after washing your face. Wash your face with a gentle soap, rinse it with warm water, and pat it dry with a towel. Scoop about 1 tsp (5 ml) of the gelatinous coconut oil on your first two fingers, then massage it into your skin using circular motions. Repeat this process daily.\nYour body warmth will melt the oil and it will absorb into your skin.\nCoconut oil works best if you have dry or normal skin. If you have oily skin, choose a different natural product, like argan oil or sunflower oil.\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\tJoanna Kula\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tLicensed Esthetician\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tJoanna Kula is a Licensed Esthetician, Owner and Founder of Skin Devotee Facial Studio in Philadelphia.

Coconut oil can leave behind a layer of residue on your face, and it is also a comedogenic product, which means it clogs your pores and can cause acne. <img> Use melted coconut oil in a moisturizing face mask. Melt 1 tbsp (15 ml) of coconut oil over low heat on the stove, then stir it together with half of a mashed banana and a pinch of turmeric. Use your fingers to apply the mask to your face, leave it for 15 minutes, rinse it away with cool water, and pat your face dry. Repeat daily if desired.\nThis mask may help both moisturize your skin and reduce acne breakouts. Bananas may help add moisture, while turmeric may offer anti-inflammatory properties.\nYou can also mix coffee grounds and coconut oil to exfoliate dead skin cells and reveal healthy glowing skin. <img> ", "Scoop about 1 tbsp (15 ml) of congealed coconut oil onto your fingers. If you have short hair, you may only need half of this amount. Buy organic, extra virgin, unprocessed coconut oil from a health food retailer for this application.\nStore the coconut oil in its glass jar at a temperature below 76 °F (24 °C); this will keep it in its congealed form. <img> Melt the coconut oil over low heat, or in your hands. Put the scoop of oil in a small saucepan and place it over low heat on the stove. Let it cool enough that you can comfortably handle the oil.\nAlternatively, you can melt small amounts of the coconut oil in your hands while you massage it into your hair. <img> Massage the oil into your hair, section by section. If you have long hair, divide it into sections with a comb and hair clips. Then, dip your fingers into the melted oil and use your fingertips to massage it in from the roots to the tips of the hair in each section.\nIf you’re using unmelted coconut oil, scoop up just enough to work into the section of hair you’re working on, rub it between your fingers for 15-30 seconds until it melts, and massage it in with your fingertips. <img> Wait at least 30 minutes before shampooing out the coconut oil. If possible, wait at least 2 hours before washing out the coconut oil—this will give it more time to absorb into your hair. When you’re ready, just use your typical shampoo to wash your hair, then rinse and dry as normal.\nYou can even keep the coconut oil in overnight. Just make sure you put a towel down on your pillow so it doesn’t end up stained. You might also want to put on a shower cap overnight. <img> ", "Remove stains with coconut oil and baking soda. Thoroughly mix equal parts of coconut oil and baking soda—for instance, 1 US cup (240 ml) of each. Apply the mixture to stains on carpeting, walls, and other surfaces with a cloth, leave it for 5-10 minutes, then wipe it away with a damp cloth.\nLike any stain remover, this may cause damage or discoloration to some surfaces. Test it on an inconspicuous area—like the corner of the carpet under the end table—before applying it to the stain. <img> Make a coconut oil furniture polish. Melt 4 tbsp (60 g) of coconut oil in a small saucepan over low heat. Mix in 4 tbsp (60 ml) of white vinegar and 2 tsp (10 ml) of lemon juice, then add it to a spray bottle. Shake the bottle, spray a light coating of the mixture on your wood furniture, and buff it off with a clean, soft cloth.\nTest the cleaner on a hidden area of the furniture first, just in case it reacts with the finish and causes staining or discoloration.\nUse the mixture right away, since the coconut oil will congeal if it cools below 76 °F (24 °C). <img> Clean and condition leather with straight coconut oil. Scoop a fingertip-sized amount of coconut oil onto a clean cloth. Work it into the leather item using a circular rubbing motion, leaving behind only a thin, shiny film of oil. Add more coconut oil to a clean section of the cloth as needed.\nTest the coconut oil on a small spot of the leather first. There’s a small chance it may discolor your favorite leather jacket or sofa! <img> Lift away sticky residue by rubbing on coconut oil. Scoop a small amount of coconut oil onto a cloth and rub it into the sticky spot. The oil should cause the sticky residue to release and lift away. Wipe the area with a damp cloth if needed.\nTry this on a sticky spot on your carpet, or to remove tacky residue left behind by a price tag or other sticker.\nLike always, test the coconut oil on an inconspicuous area first. <img> " ]

[ "Check for mold on the outside. Mold or dark-colored spots on the outside of the watermelon could indicate that it has gone bad. The mold might be black, white, or green, and have a fuzzy appearance. <img> Look for a healthy color outside. The watermelon should have either a consistent pine green shade or a striped appearance. Striped watermelons have alternating lime-green and darker pine-colored stripes. <img> Look for a deep pink or red inside. These colors indicate the watermelon is healthy. If your watermelon is a different color (black, for instance), do not eat it.\nDifferent varieties of watermelon have different internal appearances. Desert King, Tendergold, Yellow Baby, and Yellow Doll watermelons have yellow or orange flesh. <img> Beware of gritty and dry watermelon flesh. When watermelon is no longer good, the crisp flesh will start to shrivel. The flesh might even be pulling away from the seeds. In other cases, the watermelon might become slimy and mushy. <img> Smell the watermelon before cutting into it. A healthy, edible watermelon should smell sweet and fresh. If it smells tangy or sour, it’s gone bad and should be thrown it away. <img> ", "Use the expiration date. If you’re eating pre-cut watermelon you bought from the market, the container should include an eat-by, best-by, or another expiration date. This date lets you know how long you have until the watermelon goes bad. <img> Eat cut watermelon within five days. Properly stored, sliced watermelon will stay good three to five days. Make eating it a priority to prevent it from going bad. <img> Eat unrefrigerated, uncut watermelon within 10 days. After about a week, uncut, unrefrigerated watermelon will start to turn. Eat uncut, unrefrigerated watermelon as soon as possible. <img> Don’t eat refrigerated, uncut watermelon after 2-3 weeks. After about two weeks, refrigerated, uncut watermelon will start to turn. To prevent your uncut, refrigerated watermelon from going bad, eat it within two weeks of purchase. <img> ", "Refrigerate your whole or sliced watermelon. Watermelons are typically refrigerated at a temperature of 13 degrees Celsius (55 F). Storing your fruit at 21 Celsius (70 F) will increase its lycopene and beta-carotene content (both of which are important antioxidants). <img> Store cut watermelon in an airtight container. A resealable bag or container is the best place for watermelon. This will preserve its flavor and freshness.\nIn a pinch, wrap your watermelon tightly in aluminum foil or plastic wrap. <img> Use caution when freezing watermelon. Some people advise against freezing watermelon altogether, since thawing or cutting open a frozen watermelon piece could cause the juice to drip out. If you decide to live on the wild side and want to freeze your watermelon, place it in airtight containers or heavy-duty freezer bags. The watermelon will stay good for 10-12 months. <img> " ]

[ "Observe her body position when she is with you. A closed body position is one where her body is pointing away from you, her arms are crossed, or she is hunched over to take up less space.\nClosing her body position sends signals that she is uncomfortable or nervous about something. If she is doing this consistently in a relationship, it may be a sign she's not that into you.\nIf your girlfriend used to stand close to you with her arms down or on her hips, but now she turns away and crosses her arms when you talk, she is telling you that she isn’t interested in talking anymore.\nIf she conveys closed body language every time you are together, it is probably time to rethink your relationship because she might be wanting to end it. <img> Study her eye contact. Eye contact is an important factor in body language and can convey a person’s emotions.\nIf your girlfriend keeps her eyes locked onto yours while you talk then no problem, but if you find her avoiding eye contact, something may be wrong.\nIf she darts her eyes around, looking at many different things while you talk to her, it might also be a sign that she isn’t enjoying the conversation or being with you. <img> Notice how much she touches you. Physical touch is one way that girls use to flirt with and show interest in a guy. Things like putting her hand on your chest, holding your hand, or brushing her fingers through your hair all show that she is interested in you.\nIf your relationship started with a lot of physical touch from you, but now she hardly gives any at all, it could be time to talk to her about where the relationship is going.\nA change in the amount of public displays of affection, like holding hands, can also be a warning sign.\nWhen a girl isn’t interested in a guy anymore, she might stop touching him all together and go out of her way to avoid any sort of physical touch. <img> ", "Keep track of how often she cancels plans or is too busy to go out. Cancelling plans is a red flag that something may be wrong. While circumstances often occur with valid reasons to miss a date, if it happens more than 50% of dates, you’re in the danger zone.\nWhen a girl starts to repetitively cancel plans or is always busy, she is sending a clear message.\nA girl that is interested in you will make herself available and want to spend time with you, so if you find your girlfriend constantly ditching plans, take it as a sign.\nIf you see a pattern of canceled dates or if she constantly has other plans it is time to sit her down for a heart to heart. <img> Notice the type of dates she wants to have. If she is always inviting friends to meet up with on your dates or suggesting group or double dates, this could be a sign that she doesn’t like being alone with you anymore. <img> Pay attention to how she behaves with you in social gatherings like a party. If she is constantly leaving in one room to go talk to another group of people this might be a sign that she doesn’t enjoy spending time with you anymore. Likewise, going to parties and social gatherings without inviting you is also a sign that something might be wrong with your relationship. <img> ", "Take notice how often she calls or texts. Girls like to talk, so if your girlfriend is calling or texting a lot less than she did in the beginning of the relationship then consider it a warning. If you are constantly the one making the calls or sending the texts first, it might mean she is beginning to lose interest in you. <img> Pay attention to how she talks to other guys. If your girlfriend is checking out or flirting with other guys in front of you, she is probably looking to get out of the relationship. <img> Listen to what she says about other guys. If she talks about other guys more than she mentions other girls, or if she consistently compares you to other guys, it might be a sign that she's ready to end things. She could be friendly to everyone, but if it comes on suddenly, there are many examples of comments that should raise a flag:\n“That guy in my math class is so smart! I bet he would be a good tutor for me!” or\n“I met this guy at the gym yesterday and he was lifting 150 pounds! He could’ve lifted me!”\n”The new guy is kinda cute; I wonder where he’s from.” <img> See if she gets jealous. Girls will naturally get a little jealous if you flirt with or check out another girl in front of her. She may also get mad, and this could easily lead to unnecessary confrontation, or push her away.\nIf your girlfriend doesn’t care that you are flirting with the waitress on your date then you might want to reconsider your relationship.\nTry flirting with or being overly friendly to other girls on a date to see how your girlfriend reacts. <img> Notice what kind of fights you have with her. Fights are bound to happen in all relationships, but if they start occurring more frequently, there might be a problem.\nIf arguments over little things start to become big blow-outs every time, you should take some time to evaluate your relationship. She may be starting to lose interest in you romantically. <img> ", "Ask her how she feels about your relationship. The best way to have a good relationship is to be honest. Ask her openly how she feels, and be willing to work through any problems if you want to stay together. <img> Listen actively when she is talking. Give her your full attention, and participate in the conversation.\nRephrase what she says and repeat it back to show you understand \"Just to be sure I understand, you're saying....\"\nAllow her to speak without interrupting or arguing.\nAsk questions to clarify and elaborate on what she is saying. <img> Make changes based on the conversation. Through honest communication you can discover the root of a problem if one exists. Once she's shared her feelings you'll be able to determine how to move forward in your relationship.\nThere may be nothing wrong and you're overthinking things.\nIf she is ready for things to end, bringing up the problems may make it easier to handle.\nIf she's upset and you want things to work, you'll know what you need to change to keep her happy.\nIf she is always sad, she may not want to be with you any more. Be sure to ask her though as she might have something else in her life that is going on. <img> " ]

[ "Know what to expect. Piercing your lip will be painful, and the piercing may cause bleeding. The area may be tender, swollen, and bruised for several days afterward. Lip piercings can take anywhere from 6 to 10 weeks to heal fully, so be prepared for multiple daily cleanings during that time, plus regular upkeep after that. <img> Purchase your cleaning supplies in advance. Cleaning your lip piercing is pretty straightforward, but it will require non-iodized salt, alcohol-free mouthwash, and a mild, fragrance-free soap. Pick up a new toothbrush as well—one with soft bristles—and replace your old one after getting your piercing. <img> Recognize the signs of infection. Before getting your lip pierced, know what to look for regarding infections. Symptoms include pus, green or yellow discharge, tingling or loss of feeling around the piercing site, fever, and excessive bleeding, pain, redness, and swelling.\nLeave the jewelry in if you suspect an infection, but seek medical attention immediately. <img> Know what an allergic reaction will look like. Body jewelry often contains nickel, which is a common allergen for many people. Symptoms will likely appear within 12 to 48 hours, and can include itching and swelling, crusty or scaly blisters, and redness, rash, or dry skin.\nYour lip piercing won’t heal properly if you are allergic to the jewelry, so go to the doctor immediately if you suspect an allergy.\nIf you can’t wear necklaces, earrings, rings or bracelets containing nickel, you won’t be able to wear it in your lip, either. Look for jewelry labeled “surgical steel” or “nickel free.”\nIn addition to nickel, some people may be allergic to copper or brass. These 3 base metals cause the majority of allergic reactions to jewelry. <img> ", "Clean the inside of your mouth. Rinse your mouth for 30 seconds using an alcohol-free mouthwash or salt solution after every time you eat, drink, or smoke. Rinse before bedtime as well.\nTo make a salt solution, combine 1/4 teaspoon (1.2 ml) of non-iodized salt with 8 ounces (237 ml) of boiling water. Stir to dissolve the salt, and let it cool.\nDon’t increase the salt content, as this could irritate your mouth. <img> Clean the outside of the piercing and jewelry. Once a day, preferably in the shower when any crusted matter and debris around the piercing has softened, lather a mild soap with your fingers and gently wash the piercing site and jewelry. Gently rotate the jewelry for a thorough cleaning and to remove debris. Rinse thoroughly, gently rotating the jewelry again.\nAlways wash your hands thoroughly before cleaning or touching your piercing.\nDon’t clean the piercing with soap more than once a day. <img> Soak the piercing. Once or twice a day, fill a small cup with the salt solution and soak the piercing for 5 to 10 minutes. Rinse the area with warm water after. <img> Brush and floss at least twice a day. Brush and floss after every meal if possible. Rinse your mouth with alcohol-free mouthwash after brushing to remove any leftover food particles from your mouth.\nBe gentle while brushing, so that you do not irritate the piercing. <img> Eat slowly and carefully. Soft foods are recommended for the first few days. Once you return to solid food, cut it into small pieces. Place bite-sized pieces of food directly onto your molars. Be careful not to bite your lip, and avoid contact with the piercing as much as possible. Chew as far away from the piercing as you can. In the first couple days especially, try foods like:\nIce cream\nYogurt\nPudding\nCold foods and drinks that soothe and help keep swelling.\nDon’t use chewing gum until your piercing heals. <img> Reduce swelling. Suck on small pieces of ice to alleviate pain and swelling. Pain relieving anti-inflammatories such as ibuprofen can also be used. <img> ", "Avoid eating, drinking, and smoking for the first 3 hours. For as long as possible, and certainly for the first 3 hours after receiving your piercing, leave your lip piercing alone. Avoid talking as much as possible. Until your piercing is completely healed, you should also avoid:\nAlcohol, tobacco, caffeine, and drugs\nSticky foods, including oatmeal\nHard food, candy, and gum\nSpicy food\nSalty foods\nChewing on non-edible items, such as your fingers, pencils, and pens. <img> Leave the piercing alone. Cleaning time is the only time you should touch your piercing. Touching it too much can lead to infections, swelling, pain, and increased healing time. Don’t play with it, don’t let others play with it, and avoid contact and motion as much as possible. During the healing process, you should also avoid:\nOral sex and kissing\nSharing food, drinks, and utensils\nLicking your piercing or playing with it with your tongue or fingers\nRigorous activity and physical contact involving the face <img> Stay away from water. This includes chlorinated water like pools and hot tubs, but it also means fresh water, lengthy showers and baths, and steam rooms and saunas. Keep your piercing dry, otherwise it will take longer to heal and may not heal properly. <img> Avoid substances that could aggravate the piercing. Don’t clean your piercing with rubbing alcohol, scented soaps, hydrogen peroxide, antibacterial ointments, or petroleum-based creams or gels. These products can cause irritation, dryness, cell damage, or clogged pores.\nKeep the area around the piercing free of makeup, cosmetics, and facial creams or lotions. <img> Don’t change the jewelry until your lip piercing has healed. Not only can this aggravate newly healed skin, but the piercing can start to close immediately. <img> Maintain good oral hygiene. After your piercing has healed, you don’t have to keep up with the multiple daily mouthwash rinses and soaks, but clean the piercing and jewelry in the shower with mild soap every few days. Brush and floss regularly. <img> " ]

[ "Make sure to be friends with the boy you like. If you aren't, hang around him a lot, talk to him, sit by him, and if you think your ready, ask to help with his homework. Friendship should always come first if you want to be with him in school, especially elementary. People this young would be surprised if they found out you liked a boy that you hardly knew. <img> Get to know him well. What are his interests, what does he like doing and what things do you have in common with him? Find those things out. Then you can start to do things that he likes. Maybe play a sport that he likes. Or get him a present on his birthday. It wouldn't seem that suspicious if you were already friends. <img> Get to know his friends more. If you don't know his friends, make more effort to get to know them. Maybe the person you like hangs out with his friends a lot, so try to join in the group, even if you're a little shy you might be the only girl there. If you are shy that your the only girl there, try inviting one of your friends so you won't be that shy. <img> Be his best friend. Don't know how? Just let him be your best friend how you'd do it for your girl best friend. Hang out with him the most, partner up for projects. Maybe if he has a sibling who your friends with as well, go to his house. Don't steal him though. That's not how you do it. <img> Be nice and be thoughtful. Try to stay as calm as you can if you get into an argument or disagreement with him. The last thing you'll want is first thinking of him as your crush, and then an enemy. \nDon't call him stupid or ugly or anything mean.\nShow him you're there for him but don't baby him.\nAttracting a good guy begins with owning your self-worth and living a fulfilling life. Confidence is one of the most desired traits a man will seek in a partner, as he’s attracted to someone who will compliment his lifestyle. <img> Don't let people make fun of him. Stand up for him and let him see that you really mean your friendship with him. Show him that you're brave. Some boys find this feeling nice. <img> Allow the friendship to blossom properly. That means, give it time. Even if it progresses no further than friendship, at least you have a good friend in the making. After all, you're both still really young and there is a lot of life ahead of both of you. <img> ", "Be interested in the sports that he does. If he is playing basketball in PE, then tell him he did a good job. If you like the sport, join in and suggest you play together, either for practice or for real.\nShow off your athletic ability because you are good at it and enjoy it. Don't show off just to impress him; you're too smart for that. <img> Stand next to him in line and sit next to him at assemblies. Not all the time. He'll think you're weird. But sometimes. <img> Talk together. Talk about things you have in common, things you both like doing and things that happen at school. Keep it light and friendly. <img> Avoid interrupting his time spent with friends. Find out when he is happy to spend time together and let him know when you're free too, and when you'd rather spend time with your girlfriends. <img> Continue to aim to do well in school. You could even study together, and help each other to learn the things you're both best at. <img> ", "Do not ask him out. Seek first to be really good friends. If you want something more, give it a lot of time. You are both very young and it's a lot more fun to spend time together as friends, learning more about one another and having fun than making things awfully serious and complicated. The moment you get serious, the fun stops and the worries start. <img> Avoid love letters or telling your secret to others. These sorts of actions might cause him to not like you or to find you silly. <img> Keep your romantic interest close to your heart. Don't tell him you like him until you are either moving or going to a new school or until you are in at least grade 5. The awkwardness of learning that you have feelings for him might ruin your friendship! <img> Chill and take it all in your stride. You're in elementary school. You have the rest of your life for romance. Don't rush it. <img> " ]

[ "Protect yourself and your workspace. Place several layers of newspaper over your workspace to ensure any drips or spills won’t ruin your countertop or table. Keep paper towels handy in case of a spill. Wear old clothes or an apron, and put on rubber gloves to protect your skin from the dye. <img> Mix a dye bath in a bowl. You can use powder or liquid fabric dye. Refer to the package instructions for the ratio of dye to water. Generally, you’ll use a ¼ cup (59 mL) of liquid dye or 1 tablespoon (15 mL) of powdered dye with 1 quart (946 mL) of hot water. The water temperature should be about 140° F (60° C). <img> Use food coloring to make a color bath. Fill a container that your feathers will fit in with 2 parts hot water (140° F or 60° C) and 1 part vinegar. Add 1 drop of food coloring at a time until you reach the desired shade—5 or 6 drops should be plenty. <img> Make a color bath from drink mix. Powdered drink mixes, like Kool-Aid, can be used to dye feathers. Feel free to mix colors together, if desired. Use 1 6.2-gram package of drink mix per 1 cup (237 mL) of hot water (140° F or 60° C). Add the mix and the water to a large bowl.\nIf the color is too light, add more drink mix. If it is too dark, add more water. <img> Mix the color bath with a stir stick. Use a wooden skewer you don’t mind throwing away or a stainless steel spoon, which the color won’t stain. Make sure to thoroughly combine the ingredients, stirring until all the powder is dissolved, if applicable. <img> ", "Wash natural feathers with mild soap. Natural feathers need to be washed first to remove oils that can prevent the dye from sticking. Fill a bowl or bucket with warm water and a small amount of mild soap. Place the feathers in the bowl and swirl them around. Let them sit for a few minutes, then rinse them with running water.\nIf you purchased your feathers from a craft store you can skip this step. <img> Submerge the feathers in the color bath. Carefully place the feathers in the color bath, making sure that all parts and tips are submerged. Press down on the feathers with your stir stick or skewer to keep them submerged if they begin to float. <img> Allow them to soak until they reach the desired color. Feathers will absorb color quickly, so they may only need to sit in the color bath for as little as 2 minutes. If you want a darker color, you may need to leave them in for up to 15 minutes. Stir the mixture every few minutes to ensure the color gets absorbed evenly.\nA small amount of color will come out when you rinse the feathers, so let them soak until they are a shade darker than desired. <img> Rinse the feathers with cool water. Carefully remove the feathers from the color bath and transfer them to the sink. Use cool, running water to remove the excess color. Keep rinsing the feathers until the water runs clear.\nAfter this rinse, the color shouldn’t fade or rub off as it is permanent. <img> Let the feathers air dry. Lay the feathers out on several layers of newspaper or paper towel. Turn them over a few times throughout the process to ensure both sides dry fully.\nAlternatively, you can speed up the process by using a blow dryer on a cool setting. <img> " ]

Just be clear that you don't think a relationship (of whatever sort is at stake) will work and that you would prefer it if he leave you alone.\nFor example, if he keeps trying to get you to go on a date and you want him to stop, you might say \"look, I'm sorry but I am not interested in dating you, can you please stop asking?\"\nIf the honest reasons may actually hurt the individual (such as if you find him annoying), re-phrase the reason to make it less hurtful. For example, if he asks why you will not date him, instead of saying something along the lines of “I find you annoying” you could say, “our personalities clash and I do not think we get along that well”. This removes the emphasis from his character and places it on the particular dynamic that occurs between the two of you. <img> Encourage his empathy. Empathy leads people to act more prosocially. Let him know that the way he is behaving towards you is making you uncomfortable or scared, and that the experience is unsettling. He may not realize that his attention toward you is making you feel uncomfortable; he may reach the opposite conclusion, that you like his affection and attention. Engage his emotions by telling him how you really feel about his unwanted behavior. \nFor example, if he still is still pursuing you even though you have said your personalities do not match, you might say \"I have told you that I am not interested a number of times and I feel like you aren't listening, which is making me feel uncomfortable and nervous.\" <img> Don’t leave any doors open. Do not give him any wiggle room to misinterpret your words. If you do so, he may stick around or give you distance only temporarily.\nRather than saying “I’m not interested in dating you right now” close the door entirely by saying “I am not interested in dating you”. <img> Threaten legal action. In severe cases of unwanted attention, after all other options have failed and you truly feel unsafe, threaten legal action. Be ready to turn him over to the police if he continues.\nLet him know that you are taking detailed notes about his actions toward you. Keep a record of all of the communications attempts he makes. <img> ", "Say no with your body language. This step will only work if he can see you during your communications. Having closed off body language or looking like you are in a rush may allow him to realize that his communication attempt with you is unwanted.\nWhen he approaches you again, try looking away, slouching, fidgeting, or yawning, to signal that you are not interested.\nBe careful not to accidentally signal interest with body language such as leaning in or laughing. <img> Shorten your communications. Sometimes telling someone you are not interested is not enough, or there may not have been an opportunity to pull him aside and break the news. Keeping any communications short and to the point will help him get the hint that you are not interested. It will also make it more difficult for him to continue communicating as there will be less to discuss. \nFor example, if he texts you and asks you how you your day is going and whether you want to go for dinner, you might ignore answering the question about your day and just say \"thanks for the offer but no thanks!\" <img> Stop your communications. If he has not yet gotten the hint and speaking with him directly has not helped, it is time to stop all communication. Do not give into feelings of guilt about backing off from the situation. If you believe that removing this individual from your life is a good idea, then keep that in mind if you start to feel guilty. Guilt motivates us to repair relationships, but sometimes it tries to motivate us when it is actually not in our best long term interest to do so.\nIf, after you say no to his date requests, he tries to make you feel guilty by saying things such as \"I'm going through a hard time right now so you saying no really stings\" keep in mind that guilt can misfire and lead you to make poor decisions.\nJust because you are stopping your communications does not mean you should delete the communications he sends you, particularly if you feel that you are or may be stalked by this individual, in which case it is a good idea to have a record of all communications should you need them for legal purposes. <img> Ditch him. In severe cases, such as if you feel you are being stalked, changing your email address, phone number, or in the most severe cases, your home address and/or work location will greatly influence your chances of getting any unwanted individual to leave you alone. <img> ", "Get Social Support. Tell your family and friends about your situation. They may be able to give you helpful advice on how to deal with your situation.\nIf the person you are telling knows the individual who is giving you unwanted attention, be sure to remind whoever you are confiding in to be discreet and to not share the information beyond who you say is OK to tell. <img> Find a resource appropriate for the situation. Think about the severity of the situation you are in and whether it is time to seek outside help. In the United States there are laws against stalking; police involvement and other legal interventions are options in severe cases. There are also hotlines to help deal with stalking, such as: http://www.stalkinghelpline.org/ <img> Consult the resource you have decided to use. Do not hesitate to make use of the resource you have found, particularly if you feel threatened.\nIf this is a work-related matter, check with your human resources department about what resources are available for situations involving unwanted attention from a co-worker.\nIf this is a school-related matter, check in with your teacher or principal to find out how they can help you navigate the situation you are in.\nIf you feel that you are being stalked, consider getting the police involved. <img> Inform the individual that you have sought outside support. Only follow this step in certain contexts, however. In some cases it may be better to be discreet, such as if the situation is not too severe, or it is at the workplace. In other cases, such as if you feel like you are in danger, letting him know that you have the police or other social resource involved may lead him to back down. <img> " ]

[ "Assess the writer’s background. Before you can assess a person’s writing skills, you must take their background into account. For example, you would not evaluate an ESL student’s writing the same way you would if they were a native English speaker. Consider such factors as:\nThe writer’s age and developmental level.\nTheir educational background and experience.\nTheir familiarity with the language in which they will be writing. <img> Target your evaluation to the writer’s experience level. You will need to adjust your expectations depending on the writer’s background. Keeping in mind their age, experience level, and language proficiency, design a test that is appropriate for the individual.\nFor example, if you’re evaluating an ESL writer’s skills, you may wish to focus mainly on linguistic accuracy (e.g., correct use of grammar, syntax, word forms, and vocabulary).\nIf you are evaluating the writing of children, keep their age and grade level in mind. For example, you should expect an 8th grader to have a more complex understanding of verb moods and tenses than a 4th grader. Use a chart like this one to determine what skills are appropriate for the child’s grade level: https://www.cde.state.co.us/sites/default/files/documents/coreadingwriting/documents/rwc_gle_at_a_glance.pdf.\nFor professional and academic writing, basic technical proficiency may be less of a concern than style, content, organization, and proper citation techniques. However, you should still evaluate technical proficiency, as it's an important part of the writer's skills. Think of your evaluation as having a broader approach as the writer's educational background advances. <img> Keep your assignments relevant to the writer’s needs or the skills you're improving. Writing a formal academic paper requires a very different skillset from writing a letter or a screenplay. Before you create a test or assignment, consider whether it reflects the types of writing skills you want to evaluate.\nFor example, if you are testing the writer’s ability to use descriptive language, you might ask them to describe a piece of art in a few paragraphs, or to describe a photo of the countryside.\nIf you want to assess their ability to convey information concisely, you could have them complete an assignment in a specific number of words or paragraphs.\nYou may not be addressing the writer's immediate needs, especially if they're in a class you're teaching. However, you should be helping them work on a specific skill. <img> Determine your assessment criteria. There are many different types of writing skills, so you will need to select a few to focus on. Decide exactly which skills you want to evaluate, since this will determine the nature of the assignment and how you evaluate it. For example, you might focus on:\nThe use of proper writing conventions, such as good spelling, grammar, syntax, capitalization, and punctuation.\nThe writer’s mastery of written vocabulary.\nThe clarity and fluency with which the writer presents their arguments.\nThe use of clear and logical structure within the text. <img> Create a scoring rubric. A rubric is a way of quantifying whatever it is you are trying to evaluate. This might involve assigning a letter grade based on your overall impression of the work (a holistic rubric) or giving points based on the degree to which the work meets specific criteria (an analytic rubric).\nRubrics allow you to score students with different needs and backgrounds using a different scale. Consider the writer's background and current skill level when creating your rubric so you can differentiate your evaluation process. For example, an ESL student will have a different rubric than a native speaker who is also an honor student.\nIf you’re not sure where to start, do an online search for example writing rubrics. This site offers a variety of rubric templates: http://rubistar.4teachers.org/index.php.\nA holistic rubric might assign a letter grade based on the overall clarity, organization, and technical proficiency of the writing. For example, you might say, “An ‘A’ paper will present the main argument clearly and support it with specific facts. It will also be free of grammatical and spelling errors.”\nIn an analytic rubric, you will need to develop a numerical scoring system for the different criteria you will be looking at. For example, you might subtract 1 point for every grammatical error, or assign a range of points (0-10) for organization, fluency, or the degree to which the writing addresses the assignment topic. <img> Set clear parameters for your assignment. The writer will need to know exactly what is expected of them as they are completing their assignment. Tell them what you will be looking for in as much detail as possible, and invite them to ask questions if they have trouble understanding the assignment. Provide both written and verbal instructions to accommodate different learning styles. Give them information such as:\nHow much time they have to complete the assignment.\nApproximately how long the text should be (e.g., 5 paragraphs, 10 pages, or 300-500 words).\nThe purpose of the assignment (e.g., to assess their ability to present a persuasive argument).\nThe topic (or range of topics) you would like them to write about. <img> Keep re-evaluating throughout the writing process. Building writing skills is a process, and so is evaluating those skills. You will get a better idea of the writer’s abilities if you check in and provide feedback at multiple points during the writing process and assess how their writing improves and develops over time.\nFor example, you might offer to provide feedback on drafts, and then look at how well they incorporate your suggestions into the final product.\nIf you can, offer multiple assignments over a period of time, and provide feedback that encourages improvement and development.\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\tBryce Warwick, JD\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tTest Prep Tutor, Warwick Strategies\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tBryce Warwick is currently the President of Warwick Strategies, an organization based in the San Francisco Bay Area offering premium, personalized private tutoring for the GMAT, LSAT and GRE.

If you need help determining how well you're writing, consider asking a friend to look over your paper and offer to do the same for them. <img> ", "Check the writer’s spelling. Writing conventions are the basic technical skills that make writing coherent and understandable. Good spelling is a key element of clear and professional writing. When assessing spelling, keep in mind such issues as:\nThe overall number of spelling errors (e.g., what percentage of words are spelled correctly vs. incorrectly?).\nThe writer’s understanding of basic spelling rules and patterns (e.g., the use of silent letters, the softening of certain consonants before certain vowels, etc.).\nThe prevalence of common spelling errors in the writer’s work (such as mixing up commonly confused words, like “stationary” and “stationery”). <img> Look at the writer’s punctuation. Proper punctuation is also essential for clarity of writing. Check the writer’s work to make sure that they:\nUse appropriate punctuation when indicating the use of direct quotations.\nUse proper punctuation to mark the ends of sentences (e.g., periods, question marks, and exclamation points) and clauses (e.g., commas, colons, and semicolons).\nIndicate contractions and possessives with the correct use of apostrophes. <img> Examine their capitalization. A skilled writer should know the conventions of capitalization. Look over their writing and make sure that they follow such conventions as:\nCapitalizing the first words of sentences.\nCapitalizing proper nouns and adjectives, including personal names, place names, and titles before proper nouns (e.g., Governor Johnson).\nUsing correct capitalization when writing titles of works, such as books or articles. <img> Evaluate their grammar. Using correct grammar is one of the most complex elements of writing. When looking over the writer’s work, you might look select a handful of grammatical issues to focus on based on factors such as their age or experience level. For example, you might check that the writer is able to:\nUse correct verbal forms (e.g., proper tense, mood, voice, person, and number).\nUnderstand grammatical cases and use appropriate forms (e.g., distinguish between subjective, objective, and possessive forms of pronouns).\nShow agreement between grammatical forms (e.g., nouns and pronouns match in number and gender). <img> Assess their use of syntax. Syntax refers to the ways sentences are put together. For a sentence to be syntactically correct, both individual words and entire clauses must be arranged in an order that makes sense. In English, word order is especially important for establishing clear meaning and correct syntax. Look for:\nClear and correct word order.\nThe use of conjunctions to link coordinating clauses within a sentence.\nUse of a variety of sentence structures (e.g., simple declarative sentences, interrogative sentences, and compound sentences). <img> ", "Look for a clear beginning, middle, and end. A well-organized piece of writing should have a clearly-defined structure. While the nature of that structure will vary depending on the type of writing, most written works should have:\nAn introduction that briefly summarizes the topic or introduces the theme of the piece in some way.\nA body, in which the major points of the text are laid out.\nA conclusion, which wraps up the text and ties up any loose ends. <img> Assess their use of paragraphing. Paragraphing refers to the arrangement of sentences into coherent groups. Each paragraph should focus on a single theme or idea, and should be visually separated from the previous paragraph with an indentation or an extra line space. A strong paragraph should include:\nA topic sentence, clearly expressing the main idea of the paragraph.\nA few sentences supporting, explaining, or elaborating on the main theme.\nSome type of transition that links the current paragraph to the theme of the next paragraph. <img> Make sure their ideas are ordered in a logical way. A good piece of writing should present its points in an order that makes sense. While there is no single right way to order a piece of writing, the writer should at least have some kind of clear organizational scheme in place. For example:\nIn a narrative, the writer might present events in chronological order from earliest to latest.\nFor an argumentative essay, the writer might start by presenting their strongest evidence and end with their weakest. <img> Check for clear transitions between ideas or sections. In order for a piece of writing to be coherent, there must be a logical flow of ideas from one clause, sentence, paragraph, or section to the next. Transitions are used to clarify variety of links between ideas, such as causative relationships, temporal relationships, or similarities and differences. Transitions can also be used to link a topic to supporting examples or evidence. Look for the effective use of transitional words and phrases, such as:\n“Therefore”\n“On the other hand”\n“However”\n“Furthermore”\n“Likewise”\n“For example”\n“In conclusion” <img> ", "Evaluate word choice and vocabulary. The words that a writer chooses can have a major impact on the tone, clarity, and quality of their writing. When looking at the writer’s work, consider factors such as:\nWhether the words they use clearly express the desired meaning.\nWhether the words they use are appropriate for the tone of the article (e.g., do then need to be more formal or casual?).\nWhether the vocabulary is varied enough to keep the reader’s interest.\nWhether words are being used correctly and at a level appropriate to the writer’s age, developmental level, or experience level.\nWhether the word choice is appropriate for the intended audience of the piece. <img> Look for originality and a clear voice. A writer’s “voice” is what makes their work distinctive and interesting. Try to get a sense of whether the writer’s work conveys a tone that reflects their personal style or unique viewpoint. This might include factors such as:\nThe use of distinctive words, phrases, and metaphors instead of clichés and stock phrases.\nA unifying and consistent mood or tone.\nConfident “ownership” of opinions and viewpoints. <img> Determine if the style is appropriate for the type of writing. The tone and style of a written work should fit the format and context of the piece. When you are evaluating a writer’s work, keep the purpose of the piece in mind. For example:\nIf the work is intended for a general audience, a chatty and informal tone might be appropriate.\nFor an academic essay, the tone and word choice should be formal and technical. The passive voice is also more appropriate in academic writing than in other types of writing.\nWhile good advertising copy might appeal to the reader’s emotions, an informative essay on a technical topic should be written in a more objective and impartial tone. <img> Watch for concise, straightforward language. Asses the writer’s ability to express ideas clearly without excessive padding or wordiness. In addition to individual sentences, look at the overall structure of the piece.\nAre there unnecessary tangents and redundant sentences or paragraphs? Does the piece contain unnecessary background information (i.e., information that is already obvious to the reader)? <img> Assess the format and presentation of the writing. If the writer needs to be able to use a particular house style or citation format, take this into account when evaluating their writing. Make sure that they follow any guidelines regarding things like:\nPage length or word count.\nFonts and special characters.\nFormatting for sources and citations.\nLine spacing, margin sizes, and headers. <img> ", "Be specific in your feedback. Your evaluation will benefit the writer the most if you provide clear and specific notes on what works and what needs improvement. Take time to talk to them in detail or write thoughtful comments about their strengths and weaknesses. Make sure that your comments are easy to understand and clear. If they aren't, you should explain them clearly to the student.\nFor example, instead of “Grammar needs improvement,” you might say something like “Your understanding of tense is strong, but I’m noticing you have a tendency to mismatch your subjects and modifiers.” <img> Offer suggestions on how to improve. Instead of just telling the writer what they need to fix, give them some specific ideas about approaches they might take to making their writing stronger. This might mean telling them to be more mindful of a particular issue in their writing (e.g., lack of strong transitions between ideas) or giving them a specific idea about how they might improve a particular passage.\nFor example, instead of just saying, “I’m having a hard time understanding the main point of this paragraph,” you could add, “It might be clearer if you started with a topic sentence.” <img> Keep your comments relevant to the skills you’re evaluating. If you give the writer too much feedback on too many different aspects of their writing, they will feel frustrated and overwhelmed. Avoid getting hung up on issues that aren’t necessarily critical to the writing task at hand.\nFor example, if you’re mainly interested in spelling, grammar, and punctuation, don’t spend a lot of time making comments on vocabulary choice.\nKeep your commentary appropriate to the writer’s experience level, as well. For example, if you’re evaluating an 8-year-old’s writing, it might be best to focus on their basic technical skills rather than correcting stylistic issues. <img> Provide feedback as an audience rather than a critic. Good feedback should help the writer understand their work from a reader’s perspective. This will get them into the mindset of evaluating their own writing objectively. Instead of simply making qualitative statements (e.g., “This doesn’t make sense”), explain your reactions and thought processes as a reader.\nFor example, “As a reader, I’m not sure where this idea is coming from in paragraph 2. I think it might make more sense to me if you introduced some evidence for your statement in the previous paragraph.” <img> " ]

[ "Do squats regularly. Squats are a classic exercise that can strengthen your hips and core. Work squats into your regular workout routine to strengthen the muscles around your hips. To start, stand with your feet shoulder width apart and hold two dumbbells at your sides.\nChoose a weight you feel comfortable with for the dumbbells. If you're just starting out doing squats, you will probably need to start with a light weight, like something in the 2 to 5 pound range. Talk to a trainer at a gym, or your doctor, to figure out a safe weight for you.\nPull your back up straight as you tighten your core. Bend your knees to lower your body. Take a quick look at the tops of your shoes when you are at the bottom of the range of motion. You must be able to see the tops of your shoes, or this means that your knees are coming too far forward in the squat.\nKeep lowering your body until your thighs are roughly parallel to the floor. Then, return to the starting position. You should repeat this exercise 10 to 12 times. <img> Perform lunges. Lunges are another hip and thigh strengthening exercise that can improve the appearance of your hips. To do lunges, start with a dumbbell in each hand. Choose a weight you're comfortable using. Take one step forward with your left foot.\nWith your left foot forward, bend your knees. Slowly lower yourself to the ground.\nUse your feet to push yourself back to the starting position. Repeat the exercise with the other foot.\nYou should repeat this exercise roughly 10 to 12 times. <img> Enroll in a yoga course. Yoga involves a variety of stretching and poses that demand a lot from the core muscles, so it can also be a great way to keep your core strong and help your hips appear bigger. Try enrolling in a yoga course at a local gym or community center if you want to make your hips look stronger and bigger.\nIf you can't afford a class, there are many yoga routines you can find online. You can also purchase DVDs. However, be careful when doing yoga alone. Build up to the more difficult poses, and do not do any pose that makes you feel uncomfortable. <img> Try planks. Planks are a great way to tone your core muscles and get a flatter stomach, which may help to make your hips seem bigger. Work on doing planks a couple times a week as part of your exercise routine.\nTo do a plank, lie flat on an exercise mat. Keep your elbows under your shoulders and clasp your hands together just under your chin.\nProp yourself up to form a bridge with your body running from your shoulders to your toes. Support your weight with only your toes and forearms on the ground, squeezing the muscles of your chest, abdominals, lower back, buttocks, and legs. Hold this position for 10 seconds when you're first starting out. Eventually, you will want to build yourself up to 3 minute planks. <img> Perform side lying leg lifts. You may choose to strap ankle weights to your lower leg for this exercise. You can buy these at a gym or sports equipment store, but make sure you start out with a lower weight. Lie on your side. Have your legs stacked on top of each other and place your hand on your hip.\nLift your leg until it's at a roughly 45 degree angle with the floor, and then lower it back down. Repeat 10 to 12 times. To build muscle, do three sets of 10 to 12 repetitions.\nSwitch sides after you finish a set on one leg and repeat with the other leg.\nAs with squats, the amount of weight you need depends on your fitness level. It's a good idea to start small. Talk to a doctor or trainer about a safe weight for you.\nIf you feel like you need more resistance, then you can try holding a dumbbell just above your knee as you lift. This is a good way of increasing resistance without risking injury to your knee. <img> Include strength training for your shoulders. It might seem counterintuitive, but strengthening the muscles in your shoulders will make your waist seem smaller, which may help to make your hips look wider. Try doing some simple shoulder exercises like the overhead dumbbell press, dumbbell pec flyes and dumbbell rear flyes to achieve this effect. <img> ", "Adopt a healthy diet. Belly fat can make your hips look smaller by comparison. Losing weight overall can cut down on belly fat, and make your hips look bigger. To lose weight, the first step is a healthy diet.\nYour diet should be primarily plant-based. Fruits, vegetables, and whole grains should make up the bulk of your diet. Go for brown rice over white rice, and whole wheat breads over white varieties.\nStick to lean forms of protein, like fish and poultry, and low fat dairy products. For example, go for salmon for dinner instead of steak. <img> Reduce your sugar intake. Sugar can contribute to weight gain overall, so look into cutting back on sugar in your diet. Sugary beverages can be a big culprit, as many people fail to think about liquid calories in their diet.\nAvoid sugary beverages like soda, specialty latte drinks, and alcoholic beverages including cocktails, wine, beer, and wine coolers. Drink plenty of water instead and opt for unsweetened beverages like unsweetened iced tea and club soda. You can even flavor water and other zero calorie beverages with lemon or lime juice.\nRead labels before making a purchase. Sugar is found in surprising places, like breads, yogurts, and pasta sauces. You should also look for words like fructose, dextrose, and maltose in the ingredients list. These are all names of added sugar.\nFor women, strive to limit added sugar to 24 grams a day, which is about 6 teaspoons. For men, limit added sugar to 36 grams, which is about 9 teaspoons. <img> Eat smaller portions. Many times, you are eating more calories than you realize. Portion sizes, especially when eating out, can be quite large. Be conscientious of portion size.\nTry to avoid going out to eat. When you do, split an entree with a friend to halve the calories. If a restaurant has a special menu of low calorie foods, try ordering off of that.\nBe aware of how much food you should eat at home. One serving of carbohydrates is about the size of a hockey puck. An ounce of dairy is about the size of six dice. A serving of protein should be no bigger than a deck of cards.\nIt can also help to eat slowly. Your body will feel more satisfied, and you will realize you're full quicker. <img> Record your eating habits and progress. It can be helpful to keep a record of your eating habits, any weight loss you have, and any inches you lose off of your waist. This can help you stay on track and see what days of the week you're likely to slip up. It can also keep you motivated to have a running log of your progress to look at each day.\nYou should also be sure to include other factors that can affect weight loss. For example, note things like your stress level, your sleep schedule, and your daily exercise. <img> ", "Find ways to make your waist look slimmer. If you want an instant fix, changing the way you dress can make your hips look bigger. Find clothing and patterns that slim down your waist. This will draw more attention to your hips.\nTry tying a belt around your waist if you already have a small waist. This can highlight your curves, giving you more of an hourglass shape. This can be particularly helpful if you're wearing a dress that lacks shape. If your waist is not small, then go for a dress with lighter colors on top and darker colors on bottom.\nHigh-waisted clothing, like high-waisted jeans and skirts, can make your hips look bigger by slimming down your waist.\nIn the winter, choose flattering sweaters that call attention to your figure. Avoid hiding your shape in bulky layers.\nYou can also try wearing shapewear, such as Spanx, underneath your clothing to make your waist look smaller. <img> Pick vertical stripes to create a slimming look. Go for clothing with vertical stripes, especially clothing that's going over your waist. Stripes are slimming, and can create a slimmed down look that makes your hips look wider, and your figure more flattering overall.\nVertical stripes will not work with all body types. For example, if you have a carrot shaped body, then this may have the opposite effect and make your hips seem even narrower.\nWear pastels on places you want to emphasize, such as your hips, and wear black in places you want to slim down, such as your waist. For example, a light blue skirt with a black top will emphasize your hips and slim your waist. <img> Invest in flattering jeans and pants. If you want to make your hips look bigger, go for tighter jeans and pants. Skinny jeans and leggings will call attention to your figure more than baggier pants. Low-rise jeans can also help highlight your figure.\nTry wearing pale color pants and jeans. These will draw attention to your hips and make them seem wider. <img> Try pencil skirts. Pencil skirts are skirts that wrap around the hips, making them look bigger. Try wearing a pencil skirt and see if it enhances your hips. Make sure to find a skirt that flatters your body type.\nIf you are petite, go for a size cut specifically for people with a petite body frame. A higher waisted style can also be nice, as it will stretch out your frame.\nIf you have a narrow build, find a pencil skirt that falls naturally on your waist line. Details like zippers and pockets at the hips can also help flatter your body.\nIf you have a natural hourglass figure, most pencil skirts will flatter your body type. <img> " ]

[ "Learn how to swim if you do not know how. Before you hop into a pool and start swimming for exercise, make sure that you are a confident swimmer. You may be able to find lessons at a local community pool, college, or gym. Taking a class can also be a great way to jumpstart your exercise regimen.The breaststroke and freestyle stroke are the easiest to learn, so start with these. Then, work on learning the backstroke and butterfly. Butterfly is probably the hardest stroke, so only attempt it if you're confident with your swimming skills.\nEven if you have decent swimming skills, taking a swim class might be helpful for improving your technique.Tip: Make sure to learn the proper breathing technique for swimming. It's important to breathe at a regular pace while you swim. Take a breath in through your mouth on every other stroke when your mouth rises above the water. <img> Include swimming once per week to start. Swimming has been shown to have a greater effect on cardiovascular health, body composition, and strength than other forms of exercise (not to mention the endorphins released when you exercise that make you feel good), so even incorporating swimming into your exercise routine once per week will provide benefits. If one swimming workout is all you can fit in or feel up to doing, then start with just one swimming workout per week. Swim for as long as you are able, but aim for 30 minutes total. If you're just starting out, you might want to swim taking breaks. For example, you can swim 15 minutes, then take a break to rest, then swim another 15 minutes.\nYou could swim on Mondays, then do a different form of exercise on the other 4 days of the week, such as walking, biking, or taking an aerobics class.\nTry to swim as many laps as you can or see how many laps you can finish in a certain amount of time. Once you find your baseline, you'll be able to set a more manageable and realistic goal. <img> Work up to swimming for 30 minutes 3 times per week. As an initial workout regimen goal, shoot for doing three 30-minute swimming workouts per week. You can do these workouts every other day, or a few days in a row, but try to decide on a set schedule that you can stick with. This will help to increase your chances of sticking with your routine.For example, you could swim on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, or on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays of that’s more convenient for you.\nExperiment with swimming different times of day as well. You might find it refreshing to hop into the swimming pool after a long day, or you might enjoy taking an early morning dip to help you wake up. <img> Aim for a total of 60 minutes swimming 3 times per week. To reap the maximum benefit from swimming, work up to swimming for 60 minutes 3 times per week. Build up the length of your swim workouts gradually as you gain strength and endurance. Depending on your current fitness level, you may be ready to swim for this length of time now, or you might need to do shorter swimming workouts for 6 months before you are up to swimming this length of time and frequency.Try adding 5 minutes or 10% extra distance to each of your swim workouts every week. For example, if you start out swimming 30 minutes per week 3 times per week, then do 35 minutes per workout the following week, then 40 minutes per workout the week after, and so on. <img> ", "Hold onto a kickboard and do laps. If you’re not ready to swim on your own, you can still obtain many of the benefits of swimming by holding onto a floating kickboard in the pool. Try swimming a set number of laps or swim for a specific length of time while holding onto the kickboard.For example, you could swim 20 laps with a kickboard or swim for 45 minutes.\nYou could also try using a pool noodle, floaties, or other types of swimming aids when you are just starting out. <img> Do swimming interval training to burn more calories. Interval training is when you do a higher intensity level of exercise for a set amount of time, then exercise at a moderate pace, and repeat. This will increase the number of calories you burn in a workout and help to amplify your results. Do 5 or more intervals per session and incorporate interval training 1 to 2 times per week.An example of interval training would be: swim at a fast pace for 1 minute and then slow down to a moderate pace and swim for 2 minutes.\nFor a more intense interval workout, swim at a high intensity for 3 minutes, then swim at a moderate pace for 3 minutes, and repeat. <img> Try water aerobics for an alternative to swimming. You can take a water aerobics class at a community pool or gym, or learn some water aerobics moves and do them on your own. These can be as simple as treading water, walking in the pool, or hopping up and down in the pool.For example, you could walk a lap in the shallow side of the pool, then tread water in place for 3 minutes, then hop in place for 1 minute. Repeat the sequence 3 to 5 times for a simple water aerobics exercise.Tip: Remember that as long as you keep moving while you are in the pool, you are exercising! Try out different water aerobics moves to see what you like and then do whatever feels comfortable to you to get your workout in. <img> ", "Download a swimming app to keep you motivated. There are several free swimming apps that you can download onto your phone and use to help you keep track of your swim workouts, track your progress, and develop new workouts. This is a great way to stay motivated, improve your swimming skills, and build endurance. Some apps you might want to try include:MySwimPro\nMySwimFit\nGoSwim\nSwim4Gold\nSwimIO <img> Use a waterproof fitness tracker to record your workouts. A waterproof fitness tracker is a great option if you want to know the stats on your workouts, such as how far you swam and how many calories you burned while swimming. You can purchase a waterproof fitness tracker and wear it into the pool during your workouts.You can get a watch or ring-style fitness tracker to wear during your swims.\nMake sure that the fitness tracker you get is actually waterproof! If it’s not, it will get ruined in the water. <img> Join a swim club or team in your area to meet other swimmers. Finding a group of swimmers to belong to can help to keep you motivated. They might do regular challenges, fundraising events, or group swims that you can participate in. It might also be helpful to meet other people who are using swimming for fitness and weight loss.You might be able to find a swim club at your local community pool, at the gym, or by checking on Meetup.com.Tip: If you have a friend or family member who might like to go swimming with you, then you could ask them to join you. Having a workout buddy can help to make it more fun and keep you accountable. <img> " ]

[ "Recognize possible causes. By knowing the potential causes of megacolon, you can help to better diagnose your cat. Although megacolon sometimes occurs as a primary condition, it usually comes the result of one or more of the following:\nColon muscles that do not contract normally\nProlonged constipation\nPhysical trauma resulting in a fractured pelvis\nIngesting non-digestible items\nNeurological disorders <img> Track symptoms. Pay attention to your cat's bathroom behavior. If they have stopped defecating, appear to be having trouble doing so, or seem to be in abdominal pain, there is a chance that they could be suffering from megacolon. If you notice such symptoms, you should seek veterinary care. Any time your cat stops eating or seems unusually lethargic, seek help right away. Symptoms of megacolon include:\nDifficulty defecating\nPain while defecating, accompanied by wincing or meowing\nBlood in fecal matter\nAbdominal pain\nLoss of appetite\nVomiting\nDefecating outside the litter box <img> Be prepared to answer some questions. When you visit your vet, plan to bring along some information. In order to properly diagnose your cat, your vet will ask a series of questions. Be prepared to describe:\nThe complete medical history of the cat (to the best of your knowledge)\nWhat (if any) medications your cat is currently taking\nWhat symptoms you have noticed\nWhen these symptoms began\nIf your cat has experienced any physical trauma <img> Run some tests. In order to determine what is going on with your pet, the vet will need to perform a series of tests. If your cat is showing symptoms of megacolon, your vet is likely to perform:\nGeneral physical examination\nRectal examination\nX-rays\nAdditional diagnostic tests (such as blood work, urinalysis, and/or ultrasound) <img> ", "Determine and address the cause. If your vet is able to determine the underlying cause of megacolon in your cat, the best course of action is for your vet to address this root cause. Additional diagnostic tests may be performed to help determine this cause, and a treatment plan will be devised. These tests may include:\nAbdominal ultrasound\nContrast studies\nAdditional blood work\nColonoscopy <img> Administer an enema. Whether or not a root cause is determined, perhaps the best way to relieve the distress on your cat's colon is for your vet to perform an enema. In order to do this:\nYour cat will be placed under anesthesia\nFluid will be injected into your cat's colon\nThe blocked feces will be manually expressed <img> Provide medication. Your vet will likely suggest the use of medication to help relieve your cat's condition and to prevent future constipation. Depending on the nature of your cat's megacolon, you may be asked to continue providing medication after your cat returns home. Such medications will likely include:\nCisapride, which initiates colon contraction\nLactulose, which acts as a stool softener <img> Perform a colectomy. If your cat's megacolon is especially severe, and/or if other medical treatments have not been successful, your vet may wish to perform a colectomy. This surgery involves removing a portion of your cat's large intestine. Should this be needed, be aware that this surgery involves:\nGeneral anesthesia\nAn overnight stay in the animal hospital\nRecovery time where you cat will need accommodations\nSignificant medical fees <img> ", "Alter your cat's diet. In order to help heal megacolon, and to help prevent its return, you may be asked to place your cat on a high-fiber diet. Ask your vet for recommended brands and portion guidelines.\nLook for cat food labeled \"high fiber.\"\nYou can find these at pet stores, grocery stores, through your vet, or online. <img> Ensure proper hydration. Dehydration is a major factor in constipation. In order for your cat to recover from megacolon, it is important for you to monitor their hydration for at least a week after you see your vet. In order to do this, you can:\nProvide fresh water\nMake sure your cat is drinking every day\nMake sure your cat is urinating every day\nInclude canned food in their diet\nAdd water to their dry food\nFollow any additional instructions from your vet <img> Be vigilant for signs of constipation. Note how often your cat relieves itself. If your cat becomes constipated, you may be able to help. Ask your vet about how to use a micro enema at home. At the first sign of constipation, this simple home intervention could prevent a larger problem from developing. <img> Let your cat rest. In order to recover, your cat will need to rest. Consider limiting your cat's activity level and making any necessary accommodations. You may need to:\nRelocate food and water bowls\nRelocate litter boxes\nLimit playtime\nLimit your cat's contact with other pets <img> Attend any follow-up appointments. Depending on the severity of your cat's condition, as well any underlying causes, your veterinarian may want to schedule one or more follow-up appointments with your cat. In order to ensure that your cat is healing properly, it is important for you to attend these appointments. The number of appointments (if any), as well as their frequency will vary based on a number of factors. These include:\nYour cat's age\nOther health problems present\nThe underlying cause of megacolon in your cat (if any)\nThe likelihood of reoccurrence <img> " ]

[ "Research job sites to find the ones that cater to you. There are tons of job sites, so you should do some research to find the job sites that are the best fit for you. Some job sites cater towards marketing jobs, some job sites cater toward retail or management. When you carefully choose which job sites to post your resume on, you'll be aware of the exact job market that you are creating your resume for.\nAsk people in your field about the best job sites to find new employment.\nAsk your former teachers or professors on input where to post your resume.\nSome people choose to blast their resume out via every job site – which is fine – but selecting a few particular job sites allows you to be specific with each resume you send. Customizing your resume for a specific job or employer increases your chances of being called.\nSearch the internet to find the right job sites for you. If you're looking to work in marketing, search \"Best job sites for marketing.\" You'll get some good search results to look through.\nSome of the most popular job sites include Indeed, LinkedIn, CareerBuilder, Monster, ZipRecruiter, and The Ladders. <img> Look at job posting sites for potential employment. Job posting sites are slightly different from job sites, as the employers list the jobs they're looking to fill themselves. These type of sites allow you to filter what type of employment you're looking for (full-time, part-time, freelance, etc.) in your specific geographic location. When you find jobs you're interested in, you can send in your resume directly to the employer (usually by email or upload form).\nSome examples of job posting sites are Craigslist.com, SnagAJob.com, and USAJOBS.gov. <img> Post your resume to multiple job sites for the best results. Don't limit yourself to just one job website, as that will limit the number of responses from potential employers. Each job site lists available jobs from particular websites or companies, so posting to multiple job sites will give you access to a larger amount of job openings. Each job site also has a different set of search options that will give you different results.\nThere are some job sites that are specific to certain industries. If you find job boards for your industry, be sure to post your resume on them to increase your odds. For example, MarketingJobs.com and TalentZoo.com are great job sites for the marketing industry.\nThe more job sites you are on, the higher your chances of being found by your future employer. <img> ", "Include all of the necessary information in your resume. All resumes should include your contact information, your employment history, your education, and your special skills. Your resume must have all of these components for it to be seriously considered by a potential employer.\nFor your contact information, include:\nYour full legal name\nYour email address\nYour phone number\n\nDo not include your physical mailing address in resumes you plan to post publicly online.\n\nFor each job, list:\nThe name of the company you worked for.\nYour start and end date.\nWhat your job responsibilities were.\nYour major accomplishments at that job.\nYour manager's name and contact information.\n\nFor your education, include:\nThe name of the college you attended.\nThe year you graduated.\nYour major and minor.\nAny honors you achieved while at school; i.e. the Dean's List.\n\nIf you have any notable skills, list them in your special skills section. These skills may include foreign languages, musical talents, computer programming knowledge, writing skills, etc. <img> Keep your resume concise. Keeping your resume to one page is ideal. Potential employers don't want to look through lengthy resumes, so it's best to only include the most recent and relevant information.\nUse a professional font (Helvetica or Times New Roman, for example), and keep the text between 10pt font and 12pt font. <img> Update your resume for each job application. Some of the components of your resume will remain the same with every job you apply to, but some elements should be changed to better fit the job. You should cater your resume to highlight your skills for each type of job you apply to.\nFor example: If you are applying for a job in HTML, highlight your HTML and computer programming skills. But if you are applying for a copywriting job, highlight your writing experience, and list your knowledge of HTML as a skill. <img> Create multiple resumes highlighting specific skill-sets. If your resume is long, you may want to consider preparing multiple specialized resumes for each type of job you would consider. This allows you to customize your resume to a specific type of job.\nInstead of highlighting all of your skills on one resume, highlight the relevant skills to a particular job on each specific resume. This will be more appealing to potential employers.\nFor example, say you have experience in the restaurant industry and in the marketing industry. Cater one of resumes to your restaurant experience and one of your resumes to your marketing experience. <img> ", "Upload your resume to the job site. To do this, you must first create your resume on your computer. Programs like Pages or Microsoft Office usually offer pre-made templates for you to follow while building your resume. Once you've created your resume, be sure to save it to your computer so that you can easily upload it onto job posting sites. <img> Build your resume on a job site. Many career building sites have what they call a Resume Builder section. These resume building platforms help you to include all of the necessary information in a proper resume format.\nYou'll need to gather your job history and past employer's contact information, your education, and your special skills. <img> Take advantage of the free tools that job sites offer when you post your resume. Many job sites have automatic search engines that look for jobs matching your interests. Many career sites can also be setup to email you a list of matching jobs as they are listed. <img> ", "Use a resume posting service or a resume distribution service. A resume posting service does the work of actually posting your resume to numerous job sites, saving you a great deal of time. Using an outside service also allows you to focus your time on less tedious methods of job searching, such as sending in specific job applications for your ideal jobs.\nMost of distribution services cost between $50 - $100. <img> Research different resume posting services to find the best one for you. Some sites send your resume out by email to employers and recruiters, some sites fax your resume to employers, and others actually post your resume online as if you had done it yourself. You may want to use one or more of these types of services. <img> Don't use this type of service if you want to personalize each resume. If you're applying to a variety of jobs, you'll want to cater your resume to each type of job. However, if you're applying to numerous jobs in the same field, this type of service may be right for you.\nFor example, if all of the jobs you're applying for are in retail management, your resume will most likely be the same for each job. In this case, it's a good idea to use a resume posting service. <img> " ]

[ "Wash your face with a gentle cleanser. Gently dab lukewarm water onto your face and rub in a mild cleanser. Lather it up with your hands, then wash it off with lukewarm water in the sink.\nYour skin will soak in the product much better if it’s clean and oil-free. <img> Pat your skin dry with a towel. Grab a clean towel and gently pat it onto your skin to get all of the water off. Try to avoid rubbing or scrubbing your skin, as that can cause dryness and irritation.\nMake sure the towel you use is clean, or else you’ll just be rubbing dirt and oils back into your skin. <img> Drop 2 drops of Niacinamide 10% Zinc 1% in your hands. Unscrew the dropper from the bottle of Niacinamide 10% Zinc 1% and use it to drop 2 drops into the palm of your hands. Rub the product in your palms slightly to spread it around before you start applying.\nIf you use too much of the product, you could cause irritation, especially if you have sensitive skin. <img> Rub the serum all over your skin. Use your palms to spread the serum all over your face. Make sure you get your forehead, nose, chin, and cheeks for an even coverage. The serum will start to dry almost instantly, so you won’t see it build up on your skin.\nAvoid the thin skin under and around your eyes, as Niacinamide 10% Zinc 1% is a little too strong for that area.\nNiacinamide 10% Zinc 1% is water-based, so it should always be first in your skincare routine. <img> Rub on any oil-based serums in your skincare routine. If you have any oil-based products that you use, like vitamin E oil, you can rub them on now. Make sure you use the oil-based products after the Niacinamide 10% Zinc 1% to avoid clogging your pores. \nOil-based serums penetrate deep into your skin, keeping it moisturized and hydrated. <img> Apply any heavy creams that you use on top of it. To finish your routine, you can put on heavy cream products, like moisturizers. Rub that into your skin on top of the Niacinamide 10% Zinc 1% and any oil-based serum that you used.\nAlways save any heavy creams for last, because they take the longest to soak into your skin. <img> ", "Apply Niacinamide 10% Zinc 1% both morning and night. You can use this product as often as you’d like to because it’s so mild. You don’t need to worry about alternating it, and you can use it whenever you do your normal skin care routine.\nIf you start using Niacinamide 10% Zinc 1% day and night, you’ll most likely notice a difference in your skin within 1 week. <img> Use Niacinamide 10% Zinc 1% if you have red, oily skin. Niacinamide 10% Zinc 1% is a calming and soothing product that can help reduce the size of your pores and even out your skin tone. It can also reduce the appearance of any marks left over from blemishes on your skin, like red or brown dots.\nIf you suffer from acne, Niacinamide 10% Zinc 1% might not be the best product for you. While it can reduce the appearance of redness in your skin, it won’t get rid of blemishes. <img> Avoid using vitamin C products with Niacinamide 10% Zinc 1%. The one product that Niacinamide 10% Zinc 1% doesn’t work well with is vitamin C. Although they won’t cause an adverse reaction, vitamin C can counteract the effects of niacinamide, making the product not as effective. If you do use any products that contain vitamin C in your skincare routine, alternate them with Niacinamide 10% Zinc 1%.\nFor example, if you use Niacinamide 10% Zinc 1% in the morning, apply your vitamin C product at night. <img> Stop using Niacinamide 10% Zinc 1% if your skin gets irritated. Although Niacinamide 10 Zinc 1 works for most skin types, there is a chance that it can cause irritation. If you notice your skin getting red or itchy, stop using the product right away and talk to a medical professional.\nRedness or itchiness could indicate an allergic reaction. <img> " ]

[ "Learn your triggers. Identify the situations in which you are most likely to talk to yourself or process aloud. Note how you feel: you may talk aloud when you are anxious, when you are trying to get something done, or just when you are working to understand a new idea.\nKeep a self-talk journal in which you write down every moment you think aloud. Note whether you were alone or in public, what you were talking about, and how you felt before and after. <img> Take a deep breath. When you notice the urge to talk out loud welling up, take a deep breath. Breathe in from your nose and into your belly. This will help quell any urges and calm your anxieties about embarrassing yourself. Practice this whenever you have the urge to think out loud in embarrassing or inappropriate situations. <img> Write down your thoughts. Journaling is a useful habit that anyone can benefit from. It allows you to work through your thoughts in a way that is not embarrassing or disruptive to others. If you need to work through a problem or memorize something, consider writing those things down in a journal or in a notepad. <img> Have some practice conversations. If you struggle with blurting, find a time to sit down with a friend or family member and practice having a conversation. Pay close attention to what the other person is saying. At varying intervals during the conversation, stop and give a quick synopsis of what the other person said. This will help you focus your self-control and practice not blurting over the other person.\nIf it is not too distracting, you might write down notes on what the other person is saying.\nWhile you practice conversing, try using a stopwatch to place limits on how long you talk. <img> Seek professional help. Thinking out loud is a normal feature of healthy human cognitive function. However, if you are having a difficult time controlling the things that you say, you should seek the help of a mental health professional. This inability to control what you are saying may be a sign of a more complicated mental health problem.\nBlurting out and a general lack of impulse control can be a symptom of ADHD. If you impulsively speak what is on your mind, talk to your doctor or a mental health professional.\nIn extreme cases, it is important that you meet with a health professional in order to check for schizophrenia and other forms of psychosis. <img> ", "Develop your inner monologue. When you notice yourself thinking out loud in an inappropriate situation, stop and concentrate on using your inner monologue. Instead of vocalizing what you are working on, try \"saying it\" in your head. With some practice, over time you will be less reliant on thinking out loud and more comfortable using your inner monologue.\nFor those with ADHD or impulse control, this may be more difficult. Although you may not necessarily be able to stop thinking out loud, you can dictate what you say. <img> Take notes in group situations. If you are prone to doing too much processing out loud in meeting or in class, try to put some of your thinking out loud onto paper. Take notes or draw pictures to help you connect your ideas. Write down your questions before you ask them.\nGet out of the habit of talking or raising your hand without planning. If you are going to contribute to the discussion, take a moment to compose your question or comment before you open your mouth. <img> Become an active listener. If you tend to interrupt, change the subject, or ask too many questions, you may just need to learn another way to show engagement while in conversation. Try making eye contact with the person you are talking with. Nod to show you are listening. Reflect back to them to check that you are understanding what they are saying.\nFor instance, if they say, \"I just don't know why Matthew always texts me and asks me favors: he's constantly flaking and he doesn't ever ask me about my life,\" you might say, \"You feel like Matthew isn't really being a friend to you, but he's asking you to do the work of a friend for him.\"\nIf you lose track of what someone is saying, ask them a question. <img> ", "Talk quietly. If you have a tendency to talk to yourself in a loud tone that you find embarrassing, consider talking in a quieter tone. Whenever you find yourself self-talking aloud, lower your volume to a level that you are comfortable with and that is not disruptive to those around you. Although thinking out loud is good for your thought process, you do not want to be a nuisance.\nIf you want to help your brain work through a task or memorize a certain bit of information, you might whisper to yourself in a soft tone or go somewhere where you can talk out loud. <img> Go where you can talk. In some places, thinking out loud may not be appropriate. For example, if you are studying in a quiet library, speaking out loud may earn you some glares. In that case, try going somewhere, like a park, where you can think out loud. \nIf you need to work through something out loud, consider doing it at home or in your office. Find a space where you will not distract other people. <img> Learn mindful communication. Mindfulness is a way to be present in your current situation. Being mindful when you communicate with people is a way to be curious, kind, and compassionate. It can also help you to avoid lying, hurtful or verbally aggressive language, gossip, and divisive speech. Using mindful communication can also help to improve your relationships. It will improve your ability to listen, respond, and engage with your friends, family, coworkers, and others. <img> Try to filter what you say. Saying what you think can be difficult if you have a tendency to say rude or hurtful things. In that case, practice using your inner monologue around other people. When you are around others, say in your head what you might normally say out loud and, if it is not rude, vocalize that thought.\nIf you are unable to filter what you say, despite your best efforts, you should visit a mental health professional. <img> ", "Limit negative comments. We all engage in some negative self-talk, calling ourselves “Stupid” or saying “You idiot!” if we make a mistake. However, too much negativity can sap your self-esteem. If you feel yourself about to vocalize some negative self-talk, you should stop, take a deep breath, and try to think of something positive. <img> Compliment yourself. One way to engage in some positive self-talk is to give yourself compliments throughout the day. If you make a good decision, tell yourself “Good job!” These little comments will help boost your self-esteem and make you feel a little better about yourself.\nFor example, if you decide to eat a healthy salad for lunch instead of a greasy hamburger, you might tell yourself “I’m proud of you” or “Good job! That was a good choice.” You could even give yourself a little pat on the back. <img> Give yourself pep talks. If you need a little motivation for a task, some positive self-talk can help you get motivated. This can be more dramatic self-talk, such as talking to yourself in a mirror before a big event, or more mundane talking, like motivating yourself to perform daily chores. Either way, a little pep talk will help you convince yourself that you are in control and that you can get things done.\nFor example, if you are getting ready for a job interview, you might say something like “You’ve got this. You are the best candidate for this job!” or “You are going to blow their socks off during the interview.”\nIf you need a little pep talk to motivate yourself, you might say something like “Why are you laying around? You have time to get this done.” <img> Set a goal. If you want to achieve a certain goal, talking aloud about how you will reach that objective can help you stay focused on it. Vocalizing your goal and the steps necessary to achieve it focuses your attention on the task and reinforces the message you are trying to convey. It also helps control your emotions and filters out distractions.\nFor example, if you want to run every day, you might say something like “I’m going to go run” each morning. <img> ", "Use it to remember things. Vocalizing your thoughts is one of the best ways to memorize things. Saying the names of things aloud while you read them will help you memorize them. You can use this to help you study for a test or remember your grocery list. <img> Talk to yourself when you perform a new task. Children regularly talk to themselves as they perform new tasks and learn new things. As adults, we continue to do this, but we internalize the voice and no longer talk to ourselves. However, if you talk aloud as you perform a new task, you will be more likely to remember how to do it again in the future.\nFor example, if you are cooking a dish for the first time, you might try saying the steps of the recipe out loud as you cook in order to better remember how to cook the dish in the future. <img> Vocalize a problem. If you are stumped by a problem, talking through the problem aloud can help you find the solution. You can either talk it through with someone else or talk to yourself. Talking through a problem works because it forces your mind to focus on the task, instead of drifting off to other thoughts.\nFor example, if you are bogged down on an algebra problem, talk through the steps of the problem out loud in order to find the place where you are getting stuck. <img> " ]

[ "Choose a location with a pH between 6 and 7. As with many plants, oats flourish in soil that has a pH that falls within this range. To start off on the right foot, test the soil with a commercial pH probe or a pH test strip in the area where you plan to plant your oat seeds. If the pH doesn’t fall between 6 and 7, try a different location or adjust the pH.\nYou can raise the pH by adding limestone to the soil.\nYou can lower the pH by adding a fertilizer that contains ammonium sulfate, ammonium nitrate, or urea to the soil. <img> Remove all weeds from the area where you’ll be planting oats. Oats have a difficult time growing properly and thriving if they’re grown in a weed-infested environment. Before planting your oat seeds, use a weeding tool to loosen the soil around the weeds in the area and then pull the weeds out of the ground one by one.\nSome weeding tools that you can use include a Japanese Farmer’s Knife or a Cape Cod Weeder. <img> Till the soil. Once the soil is free of weeds, use a tiller or cultivator to break up the soil and prepare it for planting the oat seeds. Refer to the manufacturer's instructions and push the tiller in parallel lines across the entire area that you plan to use for planting. When you’re done, push the tiller in lines that are perpendicular to the others.\nIf you don’t have a tiller, you can rent one from a home improvement store or from a lawn and garden equipment rental store or website. <img> ", "Plant the seeds during spring or fall. When you plant your seeds depends on what you plan to use the oats for. If you're growing oats for food, plant them in the spring so you have a summer harvest. If you're growing oats for ground cover, plant your seeds in the early spring for green manure and plant them in the fall if you’re hoping to get a winter-killed ground cover. <img> Lay the oat seeds ⁄4 inch (0.64 cm) apart in rows. It’s best to plant your seeds in evenly spaced rows. Within the row, drop a seed onto the top of the soil every ⁄4 inch (0.64 cm). Continue doing this until you’ve filled the planting area completely. <img> Walk over each row to push the seeds down. After you’ve dropped all of your oat seeds onto the soil, rake over the soil to smooth it out. The seeds need to be planted less than 1 inch (2.5 cm) below the surface, and walking across them should allow this to happen.\nIf your soil has a high clay content, avoid walking over it so it doesn't get too compacted.\nDon't walk over your soil when it's wet.\nIf your soil is wet or easily compacted, you can lay a wooden board over it and walk across the board instead of walking directly on the soil. <img> Keep the soil continuously moist. Stick your fingers about 1 inch (2.5 cm) or so into the soil as often as possible to make sure that it doesn’t feel dry. When it does feel dry, water the oats to encourage them to thrive. <img> Weed the area once your oats start growing. Although weeding the area before you plant the oat seeds is beneficial and necessary, you’ll need to continue doing it if you want your oats to thrive. When you water your oats, check for weeds and remove any that have popped up. <img> ", "Harvest once the seed heads are dry. As you watch the oats grow and develop seed heads, gently touch a few of them to see if they’re damp or dry. Once, they’re dry to the touch, it’s time to harvest the oats.\nIt typically takes about 6 months from the time the seeds are planted until the oats are ready to be harvested. <img> Cut off the oat seed heads and separate the grains from the stalks. Cut the seed heads off of the rest of the plant with garden shears or simply snap them off with your hands. Put the seed heads into a bucket and shake it to crack open the seed heads. Then, pull out the grains by hand.\nYou can separate out the grains in a number of other ways, including putting them in a pillowcase and beating them against a wall. <img> Store oats in a cool, dry area. Keep your grains in an airtight container and then place the container somewhere in your home that is relatively cold and dry for as long as 3 months. You can also freeze them for up to 2 years if you prefer a long term storage option.\nIf you have farm animals, you can put the discarded stalks in your barn stalls and use them for bedding. <img> " ]

[ "Place a piece of tape over both ends of the egg. This will prevent the eggshell from cracking when you poke holes in it. Stick a small piece of tape onto the top of the egg, and another piece on the bottom.\nYou can use clear tape or masking tape.\nChicken eggs are most commonly used. However, you can blow out any type of egg. For example, turkey or duck eggs are larger than chicken eggs, while quail eggs are smaller. <img> Poke a small hole in the top of the egg with a thumbtack. Gently press the pointy end of a thumbtack through the tape and into the egg at the very top. Twist the thumbtack carefully once it’s through the shell to slightly widen the hole to about ⁄8 inch (0.32 cm).\nIf you don’t have a thumbtack, you can use any object that has a thin, pointed tip, like a needle or nail.\nOther Ways to Make a Hole in an Egg\nUse a hammer to carefully tap a very thin nail into the top of the egg.\nBuy an egg-piercing tool from a kitchenware store or an online retailer.\nPoke a hole with a small rotary tool or hand drill. <img> Flip the egg over and poke a slightly larger hole in the bottom. This is the hole the yolk will come out of. Turn the egg upside down and push the thumbtack through the tape and into the eggshell in the center of the bottom. Once the thumbtack is in, rotate it around very carefully to widen the hole a little larger than the one you made at the top.\nThe hole should be no more than ⁄16 inch (0.79 cm) in diameter.\nDo this over a bowl or the sink in case anything leaks out of the hole you made on the top. <img> Insert a straightened-out paperclip into either hole and wiggle it around. This breaks up the yolk so that you can blow it out more easily. Unbend a paperclip into a straight piece of wire, then slide it into either the top or bottom hole. Move it around once it’s all the way inside the egg, as if you were stirring it up.\nYou can also use a pin, toothpick, or needle to do this.\nBe careful not to wiggle the paperclip too forcefully or you’ll crack the egg. <img> Blow through the small hole at the top to push the yolk out of the bottom. Press your mouth against the top of the egg, over the hole. Breathe in through your nose, then breathe out forcefully through your mouth, blowing the air into the egg. The yolk will come out of the bottom hole as you blow.\nHold the egg over a bowl to catch the yolk when it comes out.\nIf you’re having trouble getting the yolk to come out, try making the hole at the bottom a little bigger or shaking the egg to break up the yolk more.\nIf you don't want to use your mouth on the egg, you can place the tip of a rubber ear syringe into the hole and squeeze the syringe to push out the yolk. You can also put a straw over the hole to blow out the egg. <img> Rinse the empty shells and let them dry overnight. Gently run the eggshells under water to remove any extra pieces of yolk that may still be inside. Hold the egg with the top hole facing up so that the water runs through the egg and out the bottom hole. Set the eggs on a towel to dry.\nIf you’re going to paint or dye the eggs, make sure they’re completely dry first. Otherwise, the colors will run or wipe off.\nYou can also set the eggs in an empty carton or on bamboo skewers to dry. Slide the skewers carefully through the 2 holes of each egg.\nTo sanitize the eggs while you rinse them, use a little bit of dish soap or vinegar along with the water. <img> ", "Apply decoupage glue and water over the eggs to make them last longer. Mix 1 part decoupage glue and 1 part water in a small bowl. Brush the mixture onto the outside of the eggs with a small paintbrush, then use an eyedropper to squeeze 2 to 3 drops into one of the holes on the egg. Close both holes with your fingers and shake the liquid to coat the inside of the egg. Let the eggs dry completely.\nYou can buy decoupage glue from a craft store or an online retailer.\nPlace a towel under the eggs while they dry since some remaining liquid may come out. <img> Dye the eggs with food coloring for a pretty spring decoration. Mix ⁄2 cup (120 ml) of hot water, 1 teaspoon (4.9 ml) of vinegar, and 10 to 20 drops of food coloring in a small bowl or mug. Place an egg into the mixture so that it’s completely submerged, then let it soak for 5 to 10 minutes. Once it’s the color that you want, take it out of the dye using a spoon or tongs and place it on a paper towel to dry.\nThe longer you let the egg soak, the deeper the color will be.\nGet creative with your colors and designs. Try mixing different colors or making fun patterns, for example.\nDifferent Ways to Dye Your Blown-Out Eggs\nTo make stripes, wrap clear tape around the egg before you dye it. Anywhere that’s covered in tape won’t be dyed. You can do the same thing with circular stickers to make polka dots.\nFor an ombre effect, use tongs to hold the egg so that just the bottom is in the dye. After 3 minutes, lower the egg further into the dye, about another ⁄4 inch (0.64 cm) for another 3 minutes. Continue to make layers down the whole egg.\nIf you want to add a glittery accent, add metallic temporary tattoos to the egg after the dye has dried. Carefully lay the tattoo onto the egg, then wipe a damp cloth over it before removing the paper backing.\nFor cute egg faces, glue googly eyes onto the egg after you dye it and draw mouths or noses with a permanent marker. <img> Draw designs with puff paint if you want eggs with texture. Squeeze acrylic puff paint onto the eggshell to create 3D patterns like stripes, swirls, or dots. Let the paint dry for 2 to 3 hours.\nYou can also make a design with puff paint, then paint over it with acrylic paint once the puff paint has dried. This creates a cool raised effect underneath.\nTo prevent the paint from smearing while it dries, slide a bamboo skewer through the holes. Stand the skewer upright or lay it over an empty container so the egg is suspended in the air. <img> Use washi tape to add colorful accents to the eggshells. You can find washi tape in all different patterns, colors, and textures at a craft store. Wrap 2 to 3 strips of the tape around an egg if you want to leave some of the shell showing, or cover the egg completely with tape for an all-over decoration.\nIf you want an artsy mosaic look, cut out small pieces of washi tape and arrange them around the egg, leaving white space in between each piece.\nYou can also paint the egg with acrylic paint first if you want a more colorful craft. Let the paint dry completely for 2 to 3 hours before you add your washi tape on top. <img> Attach an ornament cap to hang the eggs on a Christmas tree. Squeeze the 2 prongs of the cap together to slide them into the hole at the top of the egg. Once the prongs are inside, they’ll spread out, holding the cap in place. Hang your ornaments on a tree by tying a piece of ribbon to the cap or using a wire hanger.\nYou can buy ornament caps from a craft store or an online retailer. At the store, they’re usually in the holiday section.\nInstead of buying new caps, you can take the caps off of old ornaments you no longer use.\nFor an extra festive decoration, paint the eggs in holiday colors or add stickers before you attach the caps. <img> " ]

[ "Take detailed notes. During class, write down the most important points emphasized by your teacher or professor. Write down your questions, points about the plot of the book, your opinions, your teacher or professor’s opinions, and your classmates’ comments. Write down the big, main points--don’t get weighed down in the details. Keep all of your notes for your literature class together in one notebook or section of a binder so that you can stay organized. Here are some ways to organize your notes:\nThemes of the class as a whole\nYour own thoughts and questions\nInteresting points from class discussions\nThemes and symbols in particular books\nYour teacher or professor’s thoughts about a book (which will be more common in college lectures than in high school class discussions)\nImportant notes about the plot\nDetails about the historical context of the text <img> Listen and respond to other students. If your class is discussion-based, pay attention when other students are speaking. Look at the student who is speaking and practice active listening skills, including nodding at the person, absorbing what the person is saying (rather than preparing a response in your head!), and turning towards the person with open body language. Ask questions to make sure you understand what the person means. You should respond thoughtfully to your classmates’ ideas and opinions, whether you agree or disagree. Everyone will enjoy the class more if the students are respectful and interested. <img> Engage with your teacher or professor. Express your thoughts and opinions in class, and ask questions. Demonstrate to your teacher or professor that you want to succeed by going to his or her office hours and talking further about the readings. Come to class prepared to discuss the readings and to listen to the thoughts of your teacher or professor. Stay after class to ask a quick question or comment on a point you think is interesting. If you are having trouble understanding the material, reach out to your professor. He or she will be happy to help you through complicated material. <img> Ask good questions. When asking a question in front of the class, speak clearly and loudly. Look the person you're talking to in the eye.\nDon't interrupt the answer to your question.\nUse open-ended question, rather than questions with a \"yes\" or \"no\" answer. A good open-ended question might be, \"How do race and politics interact in this novel?\"\nAsk shorter, more specific questions, rather than long, general questions. <img> ", "Do your reading before class. Go to class prepared--look at your class syllabus and write down which texts you should read before each class. Make a schedule for how much reading you will do every day. It’s important to do the reading before class so that you understand the lecture or discussion while it’s happening, rather than being confused and unprepared in the moment. <img> Read and reread the assigned texts carefully. While you read, take notes where you summarize what’s happening in your own words, note unfamiliar words, and write your thoughts down. Reread a text if you find it dense or confusing the first time--sometimes professors and teachers choose challenging texts that deserve a second look. In order to maximize productivity, take a ten minute break for every fifty minutes that you read. <img> Use outside tools to help you understand the assignments further. Keep a dictionary near where you study, and write down the names and definitions of unfamiliar words you come across. If your teacher or professor allows it, use websites such as Sparknotes, Shmoop, and BookRags for plot summaries and refreshers on character names. These sources, however, should only serve to supplement your basic knowledge of the assigned texts. All your thinking and ideas for your essays should come only from you. <img> Talk about the assigned texts with people in your class. Maybe you have a good friend in the class with whom you can chat over coffee or you want to organize a weekly study group. Talking about the assigned texts in a group can help you gain new understandings of the text, answer your questions, and get further enjoyment out of what you read. If your literature class has exams, your study group can help you review the important plot points, details, and themes in the assigned texts. <img> ", "Give yourself enough time to write and revise. Make sure that you have enough time for outlining your paper, looking through the book, writing your paper, seeking feedback from others, and revising your paper.\nMake a schedule for the time frame in which you will complete your paper.\nSet internal deadlines where you are accountable to another person. Saying “I will send a draft of my paper to my peer revision partner by Thursday” is some effective than saying “I will finish a draft by Thursday.”\nReward yourself for completing tasks on time with breaks and smaller rewards. For example, if you complete your outline on schedule, you could go get ice cream with friends. <img> Create an original, argumentative thesis statement. All effective papers about literature include a thesis statement, or a specific argument that you wish to prove in your paper. Your thesis statement should be opinionated, original, and relevant to the literary work. It should not be a factual statement but instead a debatable opinion. \nAn example of an ineffective thesis statement: “In Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone, Harry’s wand is unique to him.” This statement is ineffective because it is simply a fact--although one could write many interesting things about the fact that Harry’s wand is unique to him, no one can dispute that this is true because it is a fact.\nAn example of an effective thesis statement: “In Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone, Harry’s wand represents his coming of age through its power to give him more agency through magic, its link to both his past and his future, and its unique physical form.” This thesis statement works well because it is debatable; someone might instead argue that the wand represents Harry’s duty to the wizarding world or that the wand more represents his identity as a student. The thesis statement has both facts and opinions, so it seems opinionated but not outlandish. <img> Use both direct quotes from the book and your own analysis. In order to support your thesis statement, you should find quotes from the book that illustrate your point. If your thesis statement argues that rain presents despair, for example, you might want to look for a passage in the book where a character is crying in the rain. Then, once you have an example, you should analyze this example in your own words. \nQuotes should be integrated well into the text of the essay itself, and analysis should analyze the quote further. For example, you might write, 'When Romeo says, “But soft, what light through yonder window breaks? / It is the east, and Juliet is the sun' (Shakespeare 2.1.44-45), he draws a comparison between the sun rising in the east and the beginning of the relationship between the two lovers.\" <img> Revise and proofread extensively. Ask your friends, family, and teacher to read your paper. Incorporate their feedback into your edits. Read over your paper for grammar, spelling, and punctuation mistakes. Don’t be afraid to make a lot of changes between your first and second drafts--your paper will improve with every thoughtful revision. \nWhen you’re done with your paper, read it aloud to yourself to check for awkward wording and small mistakes.\nYou can also try reading it, starting from the last sentence and working towards the first sentence.\nWhen you turn in your paper and receive feedback, keep your feedback for the next time you write a paper. <img> ", "Know the format of your test. Literature tests can be in wildly different formats depending on the class and the instructor; they are very different from math or spelling tests. If your professor or teacher gives you the format of the test, make sure that you understand what each component of the test entails. This understanding will aid you in the study process. Here are some common literature exam components:\nDefinitions of literary terms or phrases\nQuote identifications, where you are given the quote and need to explain who said it in what context in what literary work by which author.\nPassage analysis\nShort answer questions\nEssay questions, either on one work or linking together multiple works <img> Make flashcards of important literary terms and words. If your class focuses on literary terms, such as “symbol” or “anaphora” or “free indirect discourse,” make sure that you can not only define the literary term but also provide examples of it from texts in your class. Quiz yourself with these flashcards and look for more examples of them in your assigned texts. <img> Reread your class notes. If you have taken good class notes, rereading through your notes will refresh your memory about the important points made during class. Take note of the important ideas presented in the class, such as “coming of age” or “man vs. nature.” The ideas that stand out in your notes could potentially appear on the exam. Make a condensed study guide, pulling together the most important ideas from your notes. Use the “read-recite-review” method --read over your notes, recite what you remember from them, and then review and assess how much you retained. <img> Reread confusing parts of assigned texts. Understanding all of the material for a literature exam is crucial, so now is the time to look back on that confusing passage of Faulkner that you didn’t understand in class. If there’s a passage analysis on one of these confusing sections, you will be happy that you reviewed it! <img> Look at symbols and themes. If your exam requires an essay, you should look through your notes and texts for potential essay topics, such as dreams, motherhood, or nature. Take note of these for potential exam questions that ask you to talk about symbols and themes across multiple texts studied. Symbols and themes are often frequent topics of literary discussion, and having a grasp of the underlying meaning in your assigned texts will prepare you even more for the exam. <img> Utilize your study group. Ask them questions about confusing passages. Discuss what each of you thought were the important ideas throughout the class--your opinions might vary! Ask them to read-recite-review their notes to you. Hearing different opinions and points of view about the texts in a literature class will help you see the works more holistically. <img> " ]

[ "Analyze why you want to be somebody else. Ask yourself what the reasons are behind your desire to change. Write down the reasons you come up with. This way you can discover the root of your problem. Once you know where the wish to be someone else is coming from, you can solve the problem's source.\nDon't base your need to become someone else off of a few isolated events. Challenges and undesirable circumstances happen to all of us every now and then. We all make mistakes and try to learn from them regularly as well.\nIf there is a clear and repeating pattern to your experiences or relationships that provides clues to where you could improve, then use that information to your advantage. Explore where relationships broke down or what you have been criticized for. <img> Ask yourself what you want to change. You have looked at what is happening around you that makes you want to be someone else; you need to consider your personal feelings as well. If certain things are bothering you, find out what they are and how you can make them better.\nIf you're not happy with yourself, figure out why. Are you overweight? Have a nervous disposition? Disorganized?\nIf you are merely bored with the way things are and want a change, reflect on what exactly you are not satisfied with. Is it your relationship? Your job? Your house or car? The weather? Focus on the area that you want to change. <img> Focus on ways to improve. You know what needs to change so you can be who you want to be. Now you need to brainstorm ways to fix or make the problem better.\nIf you need to lose weight to feel healthy and happy then concentrate on that. Start going to the gym, lower your fat and carbohydrate intake and get engaged in a social group for support.\nIf you suffer from anxiety, then seek help from a professional, practice meditation and take opportunities to practice being assertive.\nIf you are tired of people calling you boring, do something adventurous like sky diving, mountain climbing, sailing or learning to fly a plane.\nIf you're unhappy with your romantic partner, do something new together, find ways to connect and appreciate each other, go to counseling or consider moving on.\nIf you're sick of your job, get a new one or go back to school to learn new skills so you can get the job of your dreams and earn the house and car that you want. Move away if you are unhappy with where you're at because it rains too much or gets too cold. <img> Find out whom you want emulate. You have a pretty good idea what you don't want to be. Now it's time to think about the kind of life you want and the kind of person you want to be. Reflect on the behavior, beliefs and values of those you admire to learn how to be successful in all areas of your life.\nYou probably admire someone—a character from a movie or book, a celebrity, sports figure, family member, or a Nobel Peace Prize winner. Do you want to be like your favorite TV character? Or like your girlfriend or boyfriend? Once you narrow down whom it is you want to be like, you can begin to develop character traits for self-improvement based off of their example. Spend more time with them if you are able to, in order to get a true feel of what they are like.\nSelect good personal qualities that will make your life better, not worse. Ending up in jail or driving away the people in your life that matter will not help you feel better. If you do change yourself, make sure you develop personality traits that increase your chances of being well-liked. You might want to be more interesting, sympathetic, or charming, for instance. <img> Make sure the traits you want to develop are sustainable.You need to be able to keep up these good qualities long-term until they become a part of who you are. Lying to people about what you can do or who you are is not the best way to go. People won't trust you when they eventually see the truth, so it's best to tell them now. You'll also feel more comfortable with yourself and around others if you remain true to yourself.\nDon't act like a wealthy person when you only have a few dollars in your pocket and can't afford dinner for two, let alone that vacation to Hawaii.\nDon't pretend to know about cars to get a date and happen to end up on the side of the road with a blown out tire you don't know how to change.\nLikewise, learn to play an instrument or cook before attempting to impress someone with your know-how. <img> Research everything about the character you admire. It takes knowledge, dedication and practice to become someone other than who you are right now. It is easier if you have an example to work toward. You'll need to do some serious investigation to uncover clues that will teach you how to be similar.\nRead autobiographies, biographies, stories, and articles about or by the person you admire. Also, check out fan and personal websites.\nObserve them on video and pay attention to the qualities that you want to take on, such as appearance and style, how they interact and communicate, how they behave under pressure and how they appear to others. Are they confident, respectful, friendly, positive, compassionate, or powerful?\nTry to meet the person who inspires you. If you can chat with the person you want to be at an event, conference, or other location, even better. Try to get to know who they really are, how they got where they are, and whether they might have any advice. <img> ", "Set goals. You need to know what you want and how to get there. You want to make changes to become someone different than yourself at the moment.\nTo come up with a goal, first you need to figure out where exactly you are trying to get to and what the end result needs to be. For example, you want to be more self-confident like your favorite female sports player. You want to be able to be great at tennis, basketball, football or compete in the Olympics.\nA goal is not just what you want but something you are willing to work toward. You need to ask yourself if you can work toward the end goal. Are you willing to work out, building muscle, practicing every day? This will tell you how badly you want something.\nDon't set yourself up for failure. Even though there are many tools that can help, such as motivating books and support groups, you're the only one who can change you. There's no magic pill–it will take work and dedication. <img> Start with the easiest changes. It is a big transformation to become someone else. You will want to focus first on the traits and behavior that you can modify with the least work so that you don't get overwhelmed. As you get used to adopting new characteristics, you can move on to the more difficult changes that will take the most time and energy to master.\nChanging your appearance is usually a lot easier than altering years of learned habits. It can also go a long way toward making you feel different enough to motivate you to change other factors.\nChanges that come more naturally will be easier. For example, if you have always been polite, then going out of your way to be extra polite will not take that much more effort. If you like to smile and laugh, then remembering to smile as much as possible throughout the day will probably be fairly easy.\nEmbrace the challenge. Some things can be very difficult to overcome. For example, if you're usually a timid person who keeps to themselves, then waving and saying “Hi” to strangers may be uncomfortable at first.\nKnow that with every challenge you accept and complete successfully, you will be closer to becoming the person you want to be. <img> Change your style. How we present ourselves to the outside world dictates not only first impressions but often how we are perceived and treated. If you want to stand out, then wear clothing, colors, or haircuts that make you look different than other people.\nIf you want to be perceived a certain way, such as wealthy or a professional, dress and look the part. If you want to be seen as laid back and down-to-earth, you may want to dress down.\nIf you normally wear glasses, have long, brown hair and don't wear makeup, think about how you might update your appearance. Cut your hair into a funky, short style and dye it a bold color like red, purple, blonde, or deep black. Get contacts or pick up chic-styled frames.\nPick up some guides on creative ways to do your makeup and practice different looks.\nBuy new clothes. Think about what the new character you have decided to become would want to wear. Choose flattering options and wear what feels good to you. You probably want your appearance to go along with the positive new attributes you are working on. <img> Pay attention to how you present yourself. We get impressions about people from more than their clothes or hair style. We see how they move, their gestures, and facial expressions, and form opinions about them based on those.\nWatch how you move. The way a person moves can have a huge impact on how others perceive them. Move with confidence and poise.\nPut on the outfit and shoes you will be wearing in public. Practice walking in high heels if they are part of your new look. Watch yourself in a mirror to see how you swing your arms and sway your hips.\nWatch your expressions in the mirror. Practice smiling, laughing, and appearing engaged. See if you can hold a conversation with your new self.\nYou may also want to record yourself and watch it on video to see where you might improve your communication skills and body language. If you habitually twirl your hair, for example, consider whether this is a desirable trait for your new character. If not, make a deliberate attempt not to carry on this habit. <img> Change your role. Use everything you've learned to become someone else. Make choices that will move you closer to your goal of becoming a new person.\nTry on different qualities from people you admire. Go out to the store and be the high-energy, social butterfly that is curious about strangers and cracks jokes. Be the hero who can overcome any obstacle. Go out and train until you win a race.\nIf you're stuck in a job position that seems to go nowhere, then get a completely new position doing something you enjoy more, or use your past experience to move up to a higher level role for another company. Open your own business or take on a student role for a while so you can become a doctor, lawyer, or something else. Move to another city with more opportunities for your skill sets.\nIf you've always been the one who gets stepped on in relationships, be the one who knows what they do or don't want in the relationship first. Cultivate trust, mutual respect, and demand that you be treated as an equal. Learn to walk away from people and things that don't benefit you. Make sure you know how to protect yourself so that people don't walk all over you. <img> ", "Keep practicing. Some traits, changes and approaches will take time to learn to do naturally. Remember, becoming someone else doesn't happen overnight. You will need to find out what you want, how to do it and keep at it until it works for you.\nFocus on getting your characteristics down. You want the way you look, act, and the things you do to be second nature and part of your new identity. Practice regularly in multiple situations, roles, and relationships. Eventually, you won't have to work at it anymore because it will become a part of who you are.\nParticipate in a new activity or hobby regularly, preferably outside of your comfort zone. This will stretch your horizons and allow you to learn to adapt to new situations and experiences more quickly.\nKnow your limitations. Some things cannot be safely altered and should not be, such as body type, height, foot size, finger length, or skin color, among others. Accept what you cannot change and spend your energy working on the things you can. <img> Stop judging. What we fear other people think about us are often the things that we dislike, criticize or judge about other people. Be less judgmental to free yourself and others from this burden. It is hard to learn from others or grow as a person if you're always feeling envious about another's successes.\nResist the urge to be critical of others as well as yourself and start being an objective observer. Find out how others deal with failure, challenges, and try to integrate all these good qualities into your developing personality.\nRecognize when you do a good job, handle a social situation successfully, or influence people in positive ways. Pin down how you did it, what you did that helped, and maybe what you did that didn't help. <img> Adapt. You will likely have to tailor certain qualities, styles, and roles to suit you. Sometimes things won't work for you and that's fine. Have the strength to throw out what won't serve your transformation positively and focus on those that will.\nIf you have long black hair and want long blonde hair, know that repeated processing over time will likely damage your hair. You may need to keep it short instead of long to avoid breakage and a scraggly look. Consider using dark hair to your advantage and adding some beautiful highlights that look gorgeous against your deep hair color.\nIf you are 5' and rather stocky, maybe you shouldn't expend a lot of energy to become a supermodel or famous basketball player—though there's always a chance. Try being a face model, kickboxer, or a jockey instead. The trick is to problem-solve and adapt the quality you want to suit any limitations. <img> Have fun. Don't take things personally. Some people may not understand what you are doing or why and could make fun of you. Embrace how far you have come and who you have become. Soon, the old you will be forgotten and the person you have worked so hard to become will truly be who you are.\nWhen dealing with ridicule, think about how the person you admire would react and respond. Hopefully, you will do the right thing in this situation, too.\nIt's hard to have fun if you're always worrying about how you appear to other people. Most social interaction is not defined by rigid rules, and people are not waiting to make fun of you if you do something that isn't considered normal. Just go along with the flow of the conversation and if you need to pause to think, do so. <img> " ]

This will discharge any leftover electricity.\nYou can skip this step if your battery can’t be removed. <img> Open the memory compartment on the bottom of your laptop. Check your laptop's documentation for the compartment that holds your RAM modules, typically a small access panel held shut with screws.\nYour laptop’s RAM slots might only be accessible by removing the entire bottom panel on your laptop. Refer to your laptop’s manual for information on safely removing the panel and working inside your computer.\nIf you’re removing the bottom panel, you could clean the inside with compressed air while it’s open. <img> Pull any side clips away from the module. Then, remove it from the laptop by pulling it straight away from its slot. When replacing RAM modules, you’ll need to unclip the current modules by pulling the spring or wedge style clips on both edges of the module.\nHandle memory modules by their short-side edges. Don’t touch the surface mounted components or the gold pins on the module.{\"smallUrl\":\"https:\\/\\/www.wikihow.com\\/images\\/thumb\\/c\\/cf\\/Increase-Laptop-Memory-Step-8Bullet1.jpg\\/v4-460px-Increase-Laptop-Memory-Step-8Bullet1.jpg\",\"bigUrl\":\"\\/images\\/thumb\\/c\\/cf\\/Increase-Laptop-Memory-Step-8Bullet1.jpg\\/v4-728px-Increase-Laptop-Memory-Step-8Bullet1.jpg\",\"smallWidth\":460,\"smallHeight\":345,\"bigWidth\":728,\"bigHeight\":546,\"licensing\":\"<div class=\\\"mw-parser-output\\\"><p>License: <a target=\\\"_blank\\\" rel=\\\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\\\" class=\\\"external text\\\" href=\\\"https:\\/\\/en.wikipedia.org\\/wiki\\/Fair_use\\\">Fair Use<\\/a> (screenshot)<br>\\n<\\/p><\\/div>\"}\n\nThe module will likely pop up to a 45-degree angle. <img> Line up the new module to the slot.

[ "Open Google Maps on your device. If you are using a computer with a web browser, go to http://maps.google.com. If you are using a phone or tablet, open the Google Maps app. You can download the app for free from your device's app store if you don't have it already, even if you don't have a Google account.\nOn your phone, the Google Maps icon will mostly appear as a little section of map with a dark pink bubble and a lowercase “g.” <img> Type in your destination. There should be an empty field at the top of the map where you can enter the address of where you want to go.\nTo save time in the future, you may want to save your home and work addresses for easy access. You can do this by entering “Home” in the destination field and selecting “Home” from the options that appear below. Google will then prompt you to designate an address as Home. You can follow the same steps with “Work.” <img> Click “Directions” and enter your starting point. Once you have filled in your destination, a “Directions” buttons should appear. After you click this button, another field should pop up where you can enter the address of your starting location. If you have turned on Location Services, your device may have already auto-filled your starting location. <img> Select “Menu” if you are using the Google Maps website. This button will look like three horizontal lines in the upper left corner of the page. When you hover the mouse over it, the word “Menu” should appear.\nIf you don't see a “Menu” button, look for a “Map” icon in the upper right corner of the map itself. <img> Tap “Layers” if you are using an app. This button will look like two stacked diamonds in a circle and should appear in the upper right corner of the map under the destination field. <img> Select “Traffic.” After you click “Menu” or “Layers,” a set of options will appear, such as Transit, Traffic, Satellite, Terrain, and Biking. Once you select “Traffic,” the map will color all major roadways in either red, green or orange. Green indicates light traffic, orange is moderate, and red is heavy.\nYou will also see small icons on certain sections of road, which indicate different reasons for traffic congestion such as road closures, construction, and accidents. <img> Choose the route that Google marks as the fastest. You may see 2 or 3 routes outlined, and when you click or tap on each one, it should say the travel time for that route. Google will also often label the fastest route for you so you don't have to compare. <img> ", "Check to see if your state has a 511 service. 511 is a free traffic information hotline program that has been adopted by around 35 states. If your state is one of them, you can call 511 from your phone to get traffic reports concerning your state and region. Find a full list of participating states here: https://www.dmv.org/travel/511.php. <img> Dial 511 on your phone. Don't dial 1 first or enter an area code. You should be connected promptly with an automated message that will guide you through a series of choices with voice-activated and touch-tone options. <img> Say the number of the route you want to check on. For instance, if you want to know the traffic conditions on I-90 West, say “90.” You may then be asked to choose either Westbound or Eastbound. <img> Choose which area of the route you want information about. You will most likely be asked to choose between a few different sections of the route you chose. Listen to the options and choose the one closest to where you will be driving. You should then get a full report of traffic current conditions for that area based on traffic cameras, pavement sensors, and patrol crews.\nThe report should include any conditions that would affect traffic, such as accidents, road closures, or weather events. It may also list current travel times between common destinations. <img> ", "Check your state's DOT website for traffic radio stations. Your state's Department of Transportation may have a designated traffic station that gives constant real-time reports. This can also be helpful if you are driving long distances on the highway, in which case you can also look for roadside signs posting the local traffic station.\nSome DOT websites also have apps and online resources for checking traffic in real-time. <img> Call or look online to see if your local radio stations do traffic reports. If you have a favorite radio station that has local news and weather, it is very likely that they also broadcast traffic reports at specific times in the day. Call in to the radio station or check their website to see when these reports are aired. Daily traffic reports should be able to tell you what the current traffic conditions are based on traffic cameras, sensors, and freeway incident response teams.\nSome radio stations include traffic reports with their daily news broadcasts. <img> Decide on 2 or 3 choices of routes before you tune in. Check a map and find a few alternatives to your usual route in case traffic is particularly heavy. That way, you will be able to choose which route to take quickly once you hear the traffic report. <img> Make sure your radio is tuned to the right station and tune in at the correct time. Double check that your radio is on the correct station and that it is turned to AM or FM as necessary. If you are listening to a traffic-only station, you can tune it at any time. If you are waiting for a specific traffic report, make sure you know when it airs so you can turn your radio on at the right time. But preferably, you should set the radio right before starting your journey, so you don't have to essentially get distracted while driving, as preventing accidents is the main priority. <img> " ]

[ "Schedule consultations with 2 or 3 doctors. Ear repair surgery is a cosmetic procedure that typically isn't covered by private insurance. Because you'll likely be paying for the procedure yourself, you want to make sure that the doctor you choose is someone you feel comfortable with who will do good work.\nMost cosmetic surgeons will give you a free initial consultation. At the initial consultation, they'll look at your ear and describe what they can do to repair it.\nAsk each doctor lots of questions, including how long they've been practicing and how many of these procedures they've done. Many plastic surgeons have before and after pictures from previous surgeries that you can also look at.\nCosts for this procedure vary depending on the complexity of the damage to your ear. The doctor will let you know a total price at your initial consultation.Tip: Even though your budget can be a huge factor, don't choose a plastic surgeon simply because they're the cheapest. Consider their personality as well as their experience. <img> Provide your medical history to ensure you're healthy enough for surgery. After you select a doctor, discuss the history of your health and any medications you’re taking with them. Your doctor may ask you questions about prior surgeries you’ve had or any complications you’ve had in the past. Be completely honest with your answers to ensure you’re safe for the surgery.\nEven though ear repair surgery is a relatively minor procedure don't with local anesthesia, there are still some risks, especially if you're taking medication for a chronic medical condition. <img> Follow your doctor's pre-operation instructions. Based on your lab results and the information you provide about your health and medical background, your doctor will tell you what you need to do to prepare for your ear repair surgery. If you're healthy, you may not need to do anything special before surgery.\nYour doctor typically will tell you to refrain from smoking or drinking on the day of surgery. If you take blood thinners for high blood pressure, your doctor might advise you not to take them before the surgery.\nDrink plenty of water and make sure you're well-hydrated. It will help with recovery.\nStop taking any blood thinners or supplements 2 weeks before your surgery. <img> Go to your doctor's office to get the procedure done. Ear repair surgery is typically done right in the doctor's office using only local anesthesia. After numbing your ear lobe, your doctor will cut the edges of the stretched earring hole, removing a thin layer of skin. Then, they will stitch it back together with sutures.\nExpect the procedure to last about a half-hour. If you have more complicated damage to your ear lobe, it might take longer.\nTypically, you'll have sutures on both the front and the back of your ear. You'll need to return to get the sutures taken out in about a week. Your doctor will usually schedule this appointment before you leave their office after the procedure.\nBecause doctors typically only use local anesthesia for this procedure, it's perfectly safe for you to drive yourself. <img> ", "Wait 2 days before taking a shower or washing your hair. You can't get your ear lobes wet for at least 48 hours after the initial surgery, which means you'll have to refrain from washing your hair or taking a shower. You should also avoid swimming during this time.\nIf you have longer hair, you might want to pull it back so that it doesn't interfere with your ears or contaminate the surgical site.\nIf you go swimming regularly, ask your doctor when you can go swimming again. Typically, it will be okay to do so after the initial 2-day period. However, your doctor might want you to cover your ears to protect them from the chlorine in the pool.\nAvoid completely submerging your ears for the first 2–3 days so your sutures heal properly. <img> Clean the sutures and cover them with ointment 2 to 3 times a day. For the first 2 to 3 days after surgery, clean your ear lobes when you wake up, before you go to bed, and at least once midday. Some doctors prefer that you use soap and water, others a saline solution, to clean your ear lobes after surgery. After washing and patting them dry, cover them in an antibiotic ointment.\nYour doctor may recommend a specific brand of cleaning solution or ointment. If there's another brand that you prefer, ask them if you can use that instead. <img> Use a cold compress to reduce swelling. In the first 24 hours after your surgery, your ear lobe may be swollen. An ice cube wrapped in a washcloth and placed on your ear lobe can help the swelling go down. You can do this for up to 20 minutes once every 2 hours.\nMake sure you have a washcloth or towel to protect your skin. Never put anything frozen directly on your skin. <img> Take acetaminophen as needed for pain. While there's typically not much if any pain from a simple procedure, you may feel some pain after a more complex ear repair. Unfortunately, many over-the-counter anti-inflammatories, such as aspirin and ibuprofen, thin your blood and can cause bleeding from the surgical wound. Instead, take acetaminophen (Tylenol) if you feel like you need something for pain. Follow the instructions on the bottle regarding dosage unless your doctor advises you otherwise.\nIf you were taking a blood thinner for a medical condition, your doctor might advise you to discontinue taking it for the first day or two after your surgery unless doing so would put your health at risk.\nYou also want to avoid any herbal supplements or teas that might have blood-thinning properties, including garlic, ginger, ginkgo, ginseng, and green tea. <img> Return to your doctor's office after 1 week. Approximately 7 to 10 days after your surgery, you'll have a post-op appointment for the doctor to remove your sutures. They'll also evaluate the recovery and talk to you about the healing process.\nIt may still be 2 to 4 weeks before your ears are completely healed. Your doctor can give you an estimate based on their condition after the sutures are removed.\nIf you had holes stretched by heavy earrings repaired, you'll likely only have a small scar. Other than that scar, your ears will look about the same as they did before. If you had larger holes repaired, however, you'll have a larger scar and your ear lobe shape may be different than it was before you started stretching them. <img> Wait at least 6 weeks before re-piercing your ears. Your doctor's post-op instructions will typically tell you how long you should wait before you get your ears pierced again. The length of time will vary depending on the complexity of the repair that was made and the size of the incision.\nIf your doctor instructed you to wait longer than 6 weeks, follow your doctor's instructions. If you want to get your ears re-pierced sooner, you might have them look at your ears and let you know if you can.\nIf you had holes stretched with gauges or plugs, you may never be able to pierce your ears again, depending on how much you stretched them and the complexity of the repair surgery.Tip: When you do get your ears re-pierced, avoid getting the hole in the exact same place. That place will likely stretch or tear more easily. <img> ", "Switch out your heavy earrings for lighter ones. Over time, heavier earrings will cause your earring holes to stretch. This is especially true if you've already had stretched holes repaired before. If you like large fashion earrings, look for ones that are hollow or made out of more lightweight materials.\nYou can also convert your large fashion earrings into clip-ons and wear them that way, so you don't have to get rid of your favorite pair of earrings to save your ears.Tip: Save your heavier \"statement\" earrings for special events when you'll likely only be wearing them for a couple of hours. <img> Take your earrings out as soon as you get home. Make a habit of not wearing your earrings when you're at home — especially the longer, heavier varieties. If you have a table near the door, place a small decorative bowl or dish on that table so you'll have a place for your earrings.\nEven if you leave earrings in for a little while after you get home, always remember to take them off before you go to bed. Sleeping in your earrings can cause injury to your ear lobes. <img> Use more supportive earring backs to distribute the weight. When you wear pierced earrings, the weight is all being held on one point. If you distribute the weight across a wider portion of your ear lobe, heavier earrings will be less likely to cause your holes to stretch.\nYou can buy earring backs at jewelry or beauty supply stores or online. Look for ones that specifically state that they distribute the weight of heavy earrings. Then, you can replace your regular earring backs with the more supportive ones. <img> Avoid earrings that can easily snag or catch. Long, dangly earrings can get caught on your collar or shoulder or snag on your coat. When they pull on your ear, they'll gradually stretch your earring holes.\nIf you like dangly earrings, look for ones made from a material that doesn't snag (rub it lightly against a sweater to check), or with designs that don't have hooks or points that could easily get caught on something. <img> " ]

[ "Sign up to receive coupons. Grocery stores and retail outlets often ask for your e-mail at the register or ask you to enter your e-mail when you sign up for a loyalty card. Do not use your regular e-mail, but instead create a separate address specifically to track sales.\nStores often e-mail coupons and reminders about in-store specials, but such e-mails may inadvertently get filed to a spam or promotions folder in your inbox. You may also overlooked or delete these e-mails if they're mixed in with your regular messages.\nCreate a separate e-mail address to give out to retailers and check that e-mail before a big shopping trip. This is an easy way to make sure you see any emails related to store specials. If your new email has a promotions filter, always check that. Check the spam filter as well, as sometimes coupons are accidentally filtered as spam by certain email providers. <img> Plan weekly meals. Meal planning is a great way to save money as you end up only shopping once a week and avoid eating out. You can even plan your meals around upcoming or weekly sales. Many people don't realize planning their meals around weekly sales items can translate into big savings. \nBefore making any shopping list, check what you already have.
