Looking for one can be a fun activity. It’s important to be careful when looking for one, since you can easily step on or run over garter snakes.  Search in the primary habitats of garter snakes. Keep an eye out for hidden garter snakes underneath logs or behind bushes. Walk slowly and carefully in the grass or other environments. Consider wearing light shoes, since garter snakes can feel vibrations in the ground. Look for any movement in the grass or other garter snake environments. They move quickly, but you may be able to spot them through close observation. Watch for any sunny areas. Garter snakes need to bask in the sun during the day, so you may be able to find them there. Be careful not to step on a garter snake. It may injure them, but it will almost certainly frighten then enough to run away or bite you. If you’re on a bike, be careful not to run over garter snakes. They can easily get trapped in the spokes of your bike's wheel. After you locate a garter snake, be very careful and gentle when you pick it up. Try not to restrict the garter snake, so it will get frightened and potentially bite you.  Use a net or forked stick to capture the garter snake. You can trap them underneath until they finish thrashing and are subdued.  Try catching a garter snake by the tip of its tail. This may be harder, since they can slip out of your hands, but it’s possible to catch a garter snake by hand. Give garter snakes plenty of support. They may slide or crawl over your hands, but may also fall. Be careful to not drop them or let them slip out of your hands. Don’t restrict garter snakes’ movement. They will get frightened if they feel restricted in movement by you handling them. Garter snakes may musk on you. This is a bad smelling fluid that comes out of their vent. It’s harmless, so simply wash it off. Garter snake bites are not dangerous, though they can hurt and be unpleasant. If you are bitten, stay calm and maintain a grip on the garter snake.  Though they are unlikely to bite, it may occasionally happen if...

Hunt carefully for a garter snake. Pick up the snake gently. Handle being bitten by garter snakes. Get medical attention if you get bitten.


Looking people in the eye creates an instant connection with them and draws people to you. When you’re around people, make brief eye contact with them. Simply meet their eyes and then look away. When you’re talking to someone, maintain eye contact so they feel really heard.  Don’t stare at people because that can make them uncomfortable. If you’re uncomfortable making eye contact, practice by staring at yourself in the mirror or making eye contact with someone you love. When you’re positive, people see you as being attractive and fun. Make a habit of looking for positives and pointing them out to others. Additionally, try to see the glass half-full when things are going wrong. This might be hard at first, but it’ll get easy with practice.  For instance, let's say it's raining outside and you get wet on your way into work. Instead of feeling like your day is off to a bad start, you could think about the positives that the rain brings, like lower temperatures and healthy plant life. Everyone has bad days, so don’t feel like you’ve failed at being positive if you’re feeling down. Just do your best to get back into your positive mindset. Being a social butterfly makes people see you as a confident, attractive person. At first, this might seem hard to do. Keep things simple by just talking to people and participating in what’s happening.  Over time, you’ll get better at social interactions. Don’t give up if you feel awkward at first. Try walking up to someone and saying something like, “Is this your first time here?” or “How do you know Matt?” Being passionate about something makes you a more dynamic person, so people are more likely to see you as “hot.” Find something you’re passionate about, like music, writing, sports, or helping others. Then, talk about your passion and how you’re pursuing it. You might say, “Music is the thing that keeps me going. Right now, I’m working on my guitar skills so I can get a gig in the local coffee shop.” When you seem mysterious, people are naturally drawn to you because they...

Make eye contact with people when you encounter them. Adopt a positive attitude so people enjoy being around you. Interact with people when you’re in social situations. Share your passion with other people. Be a little mysterious instead of sharing everything about yourself. Show off your smarts.


Looking to the future can help you stop obsessing over the present or past. Plus, if you’re obsessing over a guy, that means you’re spending a lot of time thinking about them. Think about yourself and what you want for your life. Sit down and map out a few concrete goals. For example, you might set a goal to save money for six months of travel. Your deadline might be one year later. Exercise can be a great mood booster. Plus, if you're busy running, swimming or lifting weights, you'll have less time to obsess over a guy. Develop a new workout regimen of interesting exercises. Also, put together a playlist of upbeat music that helps take your mind off your crush. Distracting yourself from obsessions is easy when you have activities that you find enjoyable. Think about some hobbies or passions that you might like to pursue. Once you come up with a few, immediately make a plan to incorporate them into your routine.  For example, if you want to master French cooking, enroll in a nearby class. If you want to complete a 5k, download a training schedule. To locate people in your area who share the same interests as you do, try checking a website like Meetup.com for local gatherings. Having too much free time may be one of the reasons you keep obsessing. Get busy! Fill your days with interesting hobbies, meaningful work, and gathering with friends and you may completely stop obsessing over that guy.  Get in touch with some friends whom you’ve been neglecting. Make arrangements to get together for dinner or drinks. You might also start a volunteer commitment or take on more responsibilities in a club or organization to fill your calendar. One technique for overcoming obsessive thoughts is by visualizing something else. Imagine that your thoughts are in a very dusty attic. Then, envision someone taking a broom and sweeping out all the dust and cobwebs that are intruding on your mind. Whenever your thoughts become obsessive, remind the person to “Sweep!” It is important to take time to relax deeply every day, so try to...

Loose, crumbly soils do a better job of allowing water to pass through, which means your roses won’t be in danger of rotting or becoming oversaturated. This is essential for helping your roses thrive, as they require much more moisture than other types of flowers. After watering your roses, you should notice the soil beginning to dry out in a matter of hours.  Most varieties of roses prefer a soil with a pH between 5.5-7. You can test the pH of your soil using a home soil testing kit, which are typically available at gardening centers, greenhouses, and plant nurseries.  If you live somewhere with wet, soggy conditions year-round, consider mixing one-third sand or gravel into your growing soil to improve drainage. Spread 2–3 inches (5.1–7.6 cm) of a natural material like garden compost, cow or mushroom manure, or peat moss over your soil during the spring and summer when the most growth occurs. These additives are full of nitrogen, phosphorus, and other nutrients that roses need to grow healthy and vibrant.  Following the first growing season, continue feeding your roses regularly every 1-2 months. Consult with a horticultural specialist at your local gardening center or greenhouse to find out what amendments will be most beneficial for the species of roses you’re cultivating. Apply a layer of mulch 2–3 inches (5.1–7.6 cm) thick over the entire bed, leaving 5–6 inches (13–15 cm) around the base of the plants exposed for ventilation. Any type of packaged commercial mulch will do just fine, or you can spend some time shopping around for mixtures that have been formulated specifically for use on roses.  For a thriftier approach, try recycling garden waste like leaves, wood chips, grass clippings, or even small stones into useful mulch. Be prepared to lay down new mulch once a year in the spring, or whenever the original layer becomes thinner than about 2 inches (5.1 cm). The exact amount of water they’ll need depends largely on their species and size (as well as unique soil conditions). Your best bet is to wet...

Loosely drape the scarf around your neck and wrap the ends around multiple times. When done, the ends should appear very short or should not appear at all.  Drape the center of the scarf around the front of your neck, letting the ends fall behind your shoulders. Bring each end over the opposite shoulder. The end first draped over your right shoulder should be brought back to the front over the left, and vice versa. Adjust the loop to your desired looseness. Wrap each end around the inside of this loop multiple times until the ends are either dramatically shortened or completely hidden. Loop the scarf loosely around your neck once. Both ends should hang down along the front of your torso.  Drape the center of the scarf around the front of your neck. Allow the ends to fall behind your shoulders. Bring both ends to the front of your body again by pulling them over the opposite shoulder. Adjust the loop to your desired looseness. Cross the ends over and tie them into a loose overhand knot. Position this knot so that it lands out at or just below the bottom of the loop. With a hacking knot (also called a European loop), the scarf ends will drape down the front of your torso, but the loop around your neck will be slightly more snug.  Fold the scarf in half. Drape the folded scarf around the back of your neck, bringing the fold and the ends to the front of your body. Slip both ends into the loop created by the fold. Pull the ends further through the fold to shorten the loop around your neck, adjusting to your desired snugness. If you have a long scarf with a fashionable print, you don't have to tie it at all. Instead, loosely drape it over your shoulders so that both ends can be seen from the front.  For warmer, casual materials, like cotton or wool, keep both ends fairly symmetrical. For lighter, dressier materials, like cashmere, consider letting one end drape down below the knee while keeping the other end just below your waist. You can also change the appearance slightly by holding the scarf down at your waist...

Loosen the ligature, then remove the mouthpiece, its reed, and the saxophone’s neck. You’re going to want to clean these parts often since they come in contact with your mouth. The reed is the part of the mouthpiece that produces sound from vibration and is sensitive to bacteria, fungus, heat, and pressure. The warm air you blow into it contains saliva, which provides a moist place for bacterial and fungal growth as well as food particles that damage the instrument.  A reed that is cleaned often requires at least a wipe down with a clean, dry towel or specialized swab after every use. This will stop bacteria and chemicals from congealing.  Specialized swabs and brushes for saxophone cleaning can be bought at music stores or online. A wipe will only remove the immediate moisture. To kill germs and prevent buildup, a more thorough cleaning is recommended. At least once a week, soak the reed in a cup of two caps of vinegar and three caps warm water for 30 minutes. Afterwards, rinse the reed with warm water to remove the vinegar. Any moisture can reintroduce bacteria when it is sealed inside the saxophone case. Place it on a paper towel. After about 15 minutes, replace the paper towel and flip the reed. Once it is completely dry, store it in a reed bag inside your saxophone’s case.

Disassemble the saxophone. Wipe off the reed. Deep clean the reed. Choose a clean spot for the reed to dry in open air.


Loosen the nut attaching the blade to your grinder using a ratchet wrench. Remove the current blade, and set the diamond blade in its place. Put the nut back onto the blade and tighten it again with your wrench. Check your grinder’s rotation in the instruction manual and compare it to which direction the arrow faces on your blade. If they go in opposite directions, install the blade upside-down so it cuts the right way. Find a flat piece of plywood or stiff foam that you can put underneath your tile. Make sure the wood or foam is at least 2 inches (5.1 cm) thick. That way, your angle grinder won’t cut into your work surface. In a pinch, clamp multiple pieces of cardboard together to make a new cutting surface. Turn your angle grinder on with the switch on the main body. Carefully lower the blade of the grinder onto your tile in a slow and steady motion. Push the grinder halfway through the tile and follow along with your line for the entire length. When you finish your cut, turn off the grinder.  Keep your fingers clear from your blade so you don’t accidentally cut yourself. Don’t attempt to cut through the entire tile right away since it may create sparks or break your blade. Turn on your grinder again and start from one side of your cut line. This time, push the grinder through the rest of the tile so it cuts through it completely. Push the grinder slowly in a straight line so it doesn’t jump out of the cut.

Loperamide is an antimotility medication usually recommended for IBS-related diarrhea. Loperamide works by slowing the contractions of muscles in your bowel, which slows down the speed at which food passes through your digestive system. This allows more time for your stools to harden and solidify.  Some medications, including Loperamide, also increase the pressure of the anal canal, which helps with leakage. The recommended dosage of loperamide is 4 mg initially, with an additional 2 mg after each loose stool, but you should not exceed 16 mg over a 24-hour period. Antispasmodics are a group of medicines that control  gut spasms, reducing diarrhea as a result. The two main types of antispasmodic medicines appear to be equally effective in treatment of diarrhea caused by IBS.   Antimuscarinics: Antimuscarinics or anticholinergics block the activity of acetylcholine (a neurotransmitter which is stimulates the stomach muscles to contract).  This allows the muscles to relax, thereby relieving symptoms of abdominal muscle cramping. The commonly used antimuscarinic drugs are hyoscyamine and dicyclomine. For adults, the ideal dose is 10 mg taken three to four times per day.  Smooth muscle relaxants: These work directly on the smooth muscle in the gut wall, allowing the muscle to relax. This relieves pain and prevents diarrhea. One of the most commonly used smooth muscle relaxants is alverine citrate. The usual dose for adults is 60-120 mg, taken between one and three times per day. If your diarrhea doesn't improve using one form of antispasmodic, try another. Painkillers can be used to relieve the pain associated with abdominal muscle cramping. Painkillers work by blocking pain signals to brain. If the pain signal does not reach the brain, then pain cannot be interpreted and felt.   Simple Painkillers: Simple painkillers are available over-the-counter and can be used to relieve mild to moderate pain. Examples include paracetamol and acetaminophen. Doses of simple painkillers may vary according to age, but the usual...

Losing a friend can be very painful. Pretending like it didn't happen or repressing the hurt you feel may seem like a good idea in the short term, but ultimately it will make it much more difficult to move on. Acknowledge that you have lost something important to you and that it is okay to feel sad about it.  Don't be afraid to cry. Crying can be a great release of emotion. Listen to some sad music or watching a sad movie can actually be very cathartic. It reinforces the fact that you are not alone in how you feel and can give you hope that better times are ahead. Don’t hang on to text messages or emails that you might be tempted to go back and reread. Going back to these time and time again will only prolong the loneliness and hurt after a friendship ends. You may want to save copies to a USB drive and then give it to a friend or family member in case there comes a time when you feel it would no longer be too painful to look back on old times when the friendship was still solid. Seeing what your friends are up to without you will just cause you to dwell on the past instead of looking toward the future. You’ll heal more quickly and be able to let go more readily if you aren’t constantly exposed to their Facebook posts. You don’t necessarily have to throw them away, though you could. Get rid of anything that reminds you of your friends like souvenirs or gifts. A helpful way to process feelings is to write them down. You might have questions about what went wrong or be feeling anger towards your friends. You can get all of these emotions down by writing a letter to you friends that you won’t ultimately end up showing them. When you’re done you can tear the letter up or put it away in a drawer. The purpose is just to process how you feel. Avoid seeing this as a reflection on who you are. There are lots of reasons why friendships end. Even if you feel like you had some hand in your friend or friends not wanting to remain friends with you, know that all relationships are 50/50. You can’t control other people.

Losing heat is definitely uncomfortable, but you can survive it if you keep yourself warm.  Stop your pipes from freezing. Go around your house and turn on every faucet so that it's dripping just slightly. Keeping the water moving through the pipes should help prevent them from freezing. Seal up any drafts.

Losing weight could help your mate enjoy activities with your family that were previously unavailable to you due to the restrictions placed on an overweight individual.  Amusement parks and water parks are safer and more accessible when a visitor is of a healthy weight. Playing Frisbee, taking 5K walks or runs as a family team, using the swing set, and chasing after young children are examples of family activities that are easier to perform when an individual is of average weight. Family-oriented events that require stamina or considerable time standing, such as cheering at a child’s daylong sporting event or volunteering at a school fair, will be easier and more pleasant for your mate to participate in once he or she has lost weight. Carrying excess weight can make travel more expensive and less comfortable. By losing weight, your mate can join family and friends in trips with less inconvenience and expense.  Planes often have narrow passenger seats that make air travel uncomfortable for an overweight individual and the passengers traveling next to them. In some cases, significantly overweight passengers are required to purchase tickets for two seats so that they do not infringe on the space of neighboring passengers. Although this can quickly escalate travel costs and be an embarrassment to overweight individuals, this problem can be eliminated with even moderate weight loss in many cases. Travel often requires significant amounts of time walking, standing in line, carrying luggage, climbing steps, and touring on foot. Listing a few travel dreams of your mate and demonstrating how visiting these places would be easier without the strain of excess weight (and thus with increased mobility, stamina, and energy) may help goad him or her into attempting weight loss. Having a concrete list of things you and your mate wish to do together but cannot experience due to the discomfort or inconvenience of his or her excess weight may encourage your mate to drop the extra pounds.  Think of all the places you would like...

Losing weight with the Mediterranean diet does not involve avoiding fat entirely, it just involves eating the right type of fat. Extra-virgin olive oil is the fat of choice to use for cooking and dressing foods. This should largely take the place of butter in your diet. Olive oil may even be the key to the health benefits of the Mediterranean diet.  Believe it or not, studies show that eating a diet containing good fat from olive oil and nuts actually helps people lose more weight than eating a fat-restricted diet.  Of course, even good fats contribute to calories, so be mindful about quantity. Fry or sauté vegetables with a tablespoon of olive oil; add more if needed. Whole-grain pasta, bread, rice, quinoa, and cereal are the foundation of this diet. Unlike white bread which contains lots of refined sugar, whole grains contain many nutrients and do not contribute to sugar content of a meal.  Base your meals on whole grains and fresh produce, limiting the size of lean meal portions. Eat breads with olive oil rather than butter or margarine. Fresh produce is a staple of the Mediterranean diet. Pomegranate, grapes, figs and other orange and purple fruits are delicious and reduce the risk of heart disease. Cantaloupe, peaches, and nectarines contain antioxidants that improve your health and help your body get good natural sugars, minerals, and vitamins from your food. Include green leafy vegetables like kale, broccoli, and spinach in your meals, which are rich in nutrients like Vitamin A, Vitamin K, folate, fiber, potassium, and magnesium.  Leafy greens are considered "super veggies" because they provide multiple vitamins, minerals, and fiber.  Aim for nine servings of fresh fruits and vegetables a day. Include a serving of fish in your meal at least twice per week. Fish is the main source of animal fat and protein in the Mediterranean diet. Unlike red meat, fish hardly contains any saturated fat — but it’s rich in good fat like omega-3’s, which are good for weight loss as well as brain and heart health.  The...

Losing weight, and maintaining your ideal body weight once you achieve it, can be very difficult.  Depending on your current weight and health status, a strict diet and exercise regimen can also create potential health risks.  Talk to your doctor before starting any new weight loss regimen.  Your doctor can help you set healthy weight loss goals and suggest safe strategies for losing weight. Your doctor might also be able to refer you to a registered dietitian or fitness professional who can help you create and achieve realistic goals. Everyone’s body is different. Weight loss can be more difficult (and potentially unhealthy) for some people than for others.  Before trying to achieve a runway model physique, give some serious thought to what sorts of weight-loss goals you can reasonably attain.  Aim for goals that are SMART  ""Specific"".  Plan out exactly how much exercise you are going to do each week, or how many calories you are going to consume every day. ""Measurable"".  Keeping your goals measurable will help you pinpoint how successful you are at meeting them.  For example, while you can’t measure a goal like “eating healthier,” you can definitely measure a goal like “eating 1,200 calories per day.” ""Attainable"".  Consider whether you have the time, resources, and physical ability to meet your goals.  Are your daily exercise goals compatible with your work schedule?  Do your diet plans meet your specific health/nutritional needs? ""Realistic"".  There is only so much weight that you can safely lose in a given amount of time.  Talk to your doctor or dietitian about what kind of weight loss you can realistically hope to attain. ""Trackable"".  You should be able to measure your progress in some way, whether it is through weekly weigh-ins or keeping a diary of your physical activity and calorie intake every day. Keep in mind that models often take extreme and dangerous measures to lose or maintain weight.  Models are at high risk for developing physical and psychological problems as a result of the...

Losing weight, especially large quantities as a teenager, can be a really difficult task mentally and emotionally.  Prepare yourself for success by building a support group.  Ask your family to make some of your healthy diet and lifestyle changes with you.  They'll be a great support group and it's easier to make these changes if everyone is on board at home.  Talk to your friends as well.  They may also want to lose some weight or get active.  You can take PE classes together, play a club sport together, go for walks together or choose healthier restaurants together. In addition to friends and family, you may want to consider seeing a therapist or a school counselor for extra support and guidance.  These mental and emotional health experts will be able to provide you with support, motivation and tips on navigating through your weight loss journey. They'll also be able to help you deal with any stress or emotional eating and give you tips and suggestions for changing those behaviors. If you are being bullied or having a difficult time at school, address this with your school counselor.  You should never feel bullied at school, feel uncomfortable or hurt during school. Getting adequate rest each night is important to your weight loss.  If you're not sleeping enough it's tough to stay motivated and focused.  Many teens stay up late, but still have to get up early for school.  When you wake up tired and groggy the next day, you're more likely to skip your workouts, eat bigger portions or eat more processed foods.  Also, when you don't sleep well, your body produces more hormones that make you feel hungrier throughout the day.  This makes it difficult to stick to small portions or give up snacking. Aim for at least eight or nine hours of sleep each night.  Go to bed earlier so that you can get in those important sleep hours before school starts the next day.

Lots of cars have the top bolts under the fabric in the trunk of the car, which means you'll have to lift up the lining to get to the shock bolts and remove them with a ratchet and socket. As always, consult your shop manual for more specific guidelines regarding the location of the shock tower bolts. In general, though, they'll be in the trunk. To unfasten the bolts, turn the socket and ratchet counterclockwise, greasing the bolts with penetrating fluid to eliminate any surface rust, if necessary. Use a socket set or a nut splitter to disengage the nut that connecting the shock to the suspension, and remove it from the bolt. If there isn't enough room to operate the splitter, you can apply penetrating solvent. Depending on the assembly, you may also need to disengage the knuckle at the top of brake assembly to get the the shock. Consult your owner's manual to find out for sure. Use the same process to remove the nut that is positioned at the top and keep the nuts separate so you will know which one goes where when it is time to install your new shocks. Wiggling the shock off the bolts can be surprisingly difficult, especially if the shocks are mounted on studs with a retaining bracket and everything's rusty. Wiggle it around a while and it should come off eventually.  One common frustration occurs when your piston rod keeps turning with you as you're trying to loosen the nut. You can use locking pliers on the end of the rod and keep it from turning with the pliers while loosening the nut with a wrench, but that can be just as frustrating. There's a hollow hex kit that fits over the rod and a tailored wrench made for the purpose, available at any auto parts store for about eleven bucks. If you need to bang on the bolt with a hammer or the end of your wrench to get it loose, that's ok, but make sure you put one the nuts back on to use as a hitting surface. Don't risk misaligning the bolt and messing up your ability to reinstall the shock properly. Let the metal cleaner do its work and take your time. It'll give.

Remove bolts from the shock tower. Disconnect the shock from the suspension. Remove the shock absorber from the bottom and top bolts.


Lots of communities have mommy groups that hold regular get-togethers. Your children will be the same ages, and you can share advice and stories about raising your kids. You may be able to find a mommy group through your hospital or pediatrician, church, library, community organization or local university. Introduce yourself to parents at the park, playground, dance class, and soccer practice. In order to keep yourself from being isolated, you will need to find other parents with schedules like yours. You can still connect with your working friends, but they won't likely be available on weekday mornings. Having other stay-at-home parents in your circle of friends will help keep you in a social network. When you find other families with young children, schedule playdates. Invite the other parent and child to your house. Once you get to know each other, you might find yourself scheduling a weekly playdate. You might even be able to trade off childcare. Find a nonprofit organization or other charitable cause whose mission you support. Schedule regular volunteering at this place. It might be an animal shelter, an arts organization, a nature conservancy or other organization. This will help you connect with others who have like-minded interests as well.  You may choose to volunteer at places that are child-friendly. This can be a great experience for children to learn about giving back to the community and helping others. You might also want to volunteer at your child's school. You might also find it useful to have a community of friends online. You might not always be able to see each other in person, especially when one kid has the flu or another kid is taking a nap. But staying in touch online can give you another social outlet to share stories and solicit advice.

Lots of foods can trigger heartburn (the spilling of stomach contents into the lower esophagus) because they're either too acidic, sweet, spicy or gassy. Everyone's tolerances and sensitivities are different, but if you have a hiatal hernia, you should avoid peppery foods, tomato-based foods, onions, citrus fruits and chocolate products.  Fried and fatty foods can also trigger heartburn and irritate the esophagus and weaken the valve (esophageal sphincter) between the esophagus and stomach.  In addition to heartburn, common symptoms of a hiatal hernia include: abdominal pain, bloating, frequent burping, difficulty swallowing, sore throat, feeling too full, fatigue and sometimes vomiting.  Chronic heartburn can also lead to bad breath, but avoid sucking on mints or candy (especially peppermints) because that can make the heartburn worse. Foods less likely to cause heartburn symptoms include the following: bananas, apples, green beans, peas, carrots,  broccoli, grains, cereals, cheeses, milk, and yogurt. In addition to the types of foods you eat, the portion sizes can also trigger the symptoms of a hiatal hernia. Thus, eat smaller meals more frequently throughout the day (similar in size to large snacks) in order to prevent over-filling your stomach and putting pressure on the esophageal sphincter. Americans tend to take much larger portion sizes than they need for adequate energy and nutrition, so reducing them will not likely rob you of necessary nutrients.  Instead of three large meals per day, eat five smaller (and blander) meals spaced out by about two-and-a-half hours. Don't let others dish up your plate when at home. Help yourself and don't feel the need to fill up your entire plate to the edges. If you're very hungry, force yourself to take a small serving initially. Eat slowly and only take a second small serving if you're still hungry. Chewing your food properly is important because not only are you "pre-digesting" and absorbing some of the nutrients in your mouth, but you're also stimulating the...

Avoid foods that trigger heartburn. Don't eat large meals. Spend more time chewing. Avoid eating just prior to bedtime.


Lots of information on the slip is already printed.  Your name, address, bank name and address, and your account number should all be on the deposit slip already.  Before depositing cash, check to ensure this information is present and correct.  If the information is not present or incorrect, talk to a representative of the issuing bank. If you did not receive deposit slips when opening your account, contact the bank where you have the account.  Many banks offer unnumbered deposit slips in their lobbies (in which case you will have to fill in your account number manually). There should be a space to the left of the deposit slip for you to write the date of your deposit.  This will help the transaction proceed smoothly and prevent confusion. Locate the line on which you are expected to total your cash.  Typically, the cash deposit line is the first line on the right side of the deposit slip.  It has a small black triangle next to it, along with the word “CASH.”  Total the amount of cash you’re depositing and write it on this line. If you’re depositing checks along with cash, you can write the totals of your checks on the subsequent lines. When you’re done filling the slip out, add up your cash and check deposit amounts.  Write the grand total at the bottom of the deposit slip.  For instance, if you deposited two checks worth $50 and $100 in cash, you’d write $200 at the bottom of the deposit slip.

Check that the preprinted information is correct. Write the date on the slip. Indicate the amount of cash you’re depositing. Total your deposit slip.


Lots of people come and go throughout our lives. Your friendship might have just run its course. Think of it as an open space in your life that you can fill up with new, stronger friendships. When a friendship ends it can be easy to focus on negative things. Take stock of the things in your life that you are grateful for. Make a list of people you still feel close to, skills you are proud of, groups you’re involved with or tasks you enjoy. Keep the list close by in a your wallet or bag or hang it above your desk so you can look to it when you are feeling lonely. Sitting around and dwelling on lost friends will make it harder to get over them. If you catch yourself spending too much time in the house feeling sad get out. Go for a jog or to the gym. Go to a place where you can be around other people like a coffee shop, the library or a concert. Seeking out a new hobby can be a great distraction and can help you meet new friends. Sign up for something you are interested in to keep you busy. A yoga class or meditation group can be particularly helpful in times of distress. You might also consider a cooking class, dance lessons, or learning how to play an instrument. Don’t let lost friendships keep you from enjoying yourself. Make sure you make extra time to do things that you enjoy and that make you happy. Read, play video games, go out with other friends, play an instrument. Keep busy. Healing from the loss of a friendship is going to take time. Even though you might be experiencing very real feelings of loneliness and depression, know that no feeling lasts forever and that as long as you are taking good care of yourself, you’ll be able to find the strength to pull through.

Know that you’ll make new friends. Be grateful. Get out of the house. Take a class. Do your favorite things. Be patient.


Lots of people who aren't necessarily great-looking have an inner beauty that radiates and attracts others. Practice your inner beauty by smiling and making eye contact with the people you encounter every day. It doesn't matter if you know them or not--everyone likes a smile! Many people interpret smiling and making eye contact as an invitation to chat. If you’re in a hurry or don’t want to talk, be sure to make the eye contact last for only a second. Be nice to everyone you meet. Introduce yourself if you don’t know them, and address them by name. Ask how they’re doing and take an active interest in their lives. This doesn’t mean that you should let people treat you badly--if you have to tell someone to stop or to leave you alone, do so clearly and firmly. If you care about someone, let them know how you feel. You can simply say “I care about you” or “I love you”, but it doesn't have to be direct. You can also show them how you feel by paying attention to them, listening to any problems they have, and making time for them.  Tell your parents that you appreciate all they do for you. Text your best friend a note saying she's awesome and the best friend ever. People are more likely to find a helpful person attractive and enjoyable to be around. If you are in a situation where you can help someone, do it! Offer to open doors, carry boxes, or help someone with their homework. Don’t go overboard. You shouldn't offer to help do something if you aren't fully up to the job.. Offering to help too often can lead to burnout and being taken advantage of. Pretty people don’t just sit back and reflect on how pretty they are. They look for beauty in other people too! Look at the people you care about and the people you interact with, and find something nice to say about everyone’s appearance. Once you get into the habit of looking for beauty in others, you’ll be able to see it in yourself too. You don’t have to walk up to people and announce “You’re pretty.” Try saying something like “I like your haircut” or “You look nice today.”

How would you rephrase that briefly using English?

Smile and make eye contact throughout your day. Be friendly and polite towards everyone. Show your loved ones how you feel about them. Offer to help others as often as you can. Tell other people they’re pretty.


Lots of people who feel socially shy, anxious, or find communication difficult often focus on themselves and their own social performance. Look at someone at your school that is popular, gets along with people, and has lots of friends. What does this person do that makes him or her so likeable? Notice the way this person stands, body language, facial expressions, and the way he or she interacts with others, verbally and nonverbally.  See the positive things this person brings to social interactions, and practice them in your own interactions. When you’re focused on yourself, you may miss the cues that other people give you. Start to notice cues that people give in other interactions, and see if you can start to pick up on cues in your own interactions. If you cross your arms and legs and look down, it’s unlikely people will see you as a warm and inviting person to talk with. Instead, make sure you communicate your openness by appearing open in your body: lean toward people, smile, nod your head, and maintain comfortable eye contact. Try and avoid crossing your body, but keep your shoulders open and not hunched. When making eye contact, it’s okay to look away; no need to lock eyes indefinitely. You can also look at different focal points such as the forehead, nose, mouth, between the eyes). If you’ve generally avoided eye contact in the past, it may be a difficult practice to adopt, but keep at it. Don’t feel 100% responsible for carrying a conversation. If you’re so wrapped up in thinking about what to think next, you may miss what the other person is saying. Listen to what the other person is saying, and ask questions that build on what is said. For instance, if someone tells you, “I like to garden”, ask “What kind of plants or flowers do you grow?” or “How did you get into gardening?” Active listening means you put your attention onto what is being said and show interest in it and the person. Don’t be afraid to nod your head, say “oh yeah” or “really?” or “Wow! That’s fascinating!” to show that you are...

Lots of pop stars feature looks that were popular in the 1980s. This means lots of neon colors and bold prints. You don't have to worry about wearing too many different prints or bright colors. Nicki Minaj frequently mixes a variety of looks, usually focused around the color pink. Add to your pop star look with more classic styles, like those of icons Marlene Dietrich, Bianca Jagger, David Bowie, and Cary Grant. Mixing a classic look with contemporary designs could reveal a look perfect for you. Lady Gaga is famous for her eclectic and creative wardrobe. For example, you could dress in the style of your favorite super hero, science fiction character, food item (think candy or anything with an interesting wrapper), or pin up doll.  Science fiction costume designers often use historical trends or current fashions to inspire their futuristic looks. Look to your favorite sci-fi movies for pointers that can make your pop star outfit more personalized. Take design cues in military outfits. Many dress uniforms are intended for ceremonial purposes and might have just the feature that makes your pop star look come alive. Not just the territory of super heroes anymore, capes are becoming a feature of the fashion elite. If you are hesitant to try this style, rest assured that you are not alone in donning this classic costume. Taylor Swift and Madonna are both recent examples of how the cape is alive and well in pop star fashion. Keep in mind there are many different kinds of cape and ways of draping it. You might prefer a knit or crocheted cape in cooler weather. On a summer night, you might choose a light fabric side-cape or a short dress cape. You should look for bold patterns and colors when selecting a cape for your outfit, as many consider these to be the trademark of a pop star. Select a bustier to be the focal point of your outfit. Don't cover it up! The bustier has been a popular pop star choice since Madonna. You can keep the look simple without adding much to your bustier, or you can wear clothing to fill out...

Lots of printers can be very finicky, and if you have an installation guide you should follow its exact instructions before deferring to these general instructions. You can usually find the installation guide as a PDF file on the manufacturer's support page for your model. You can quickly find the support page for your printer by opening Google and searching for "manufacturer model support". Make sure to plug it into a USB port directly on your computer, and not a USB hub. Some printers will need to be plugged into a power source as well. You should hear the page feed mechanism start and the printer should light up. All modern versions of Windows and OS X should be able to automatically detect the printer and install the necessary drivers for you. You may need to be connected to the internet in order for your operating system to download the appropriate files. For most users, this should be all you need to do in order to begin printing from your computer to your new printer. If you are using an older version of Windows/OS X, or the printer is not automatically detected, read on. This will usually install any drivers that weren't installed automatically by Windows, and may install extra printing software that allow you to take advantage of additional features on your printer. If you don't have the disc that came with the printer, and it wasn't automatically detected by your operating system, read on. As long as your printer was properly automatically installed, you usually don't actually need to install anything else. If you don't have the disc and the printer wasn't installed automatically, you can download the drivers directly from the manufacturer. You will need to know your printer's model number, which should be prominent on the printer itself. You can quickly find the support page for your printer by opening Google and searching for "manufacturer model support". After installing the drivers, your printer should now be ready to print from any program on your computer that supports printing.

Lots of totally cool people are actually super short. Tom Cruise is only 5'7". Daniel Radcliffe is only 5'5"! As for girls, lots of famous actresses are 5'3" or shorter, like Vanessa Hudgens (5'1"), Reese Witherspoon (5'1"), and Snookie is only 4'8"! Find things that you like about how you look. Maybe work out and get a nicer body over-all. Realistically, you have to remember that when people are looking for someone to date seriously, height is usually going to matter the least after general appearance personality, and work ethic. Find confidence in other things that people will find attractive and you won't have to worry about your height. You should develop your confidence in things other than how you look, because this is a healthier mindset anyway. Learn a cool skill, travel around and have lots of experiences, or even just do something great like volunteering. This will make you proud of yourself and build your confidence.Work hard and built a good career if you can.Really a rich wife /girlfriend is automatically beautiful,believe it or not. A rich guy even better. You can make a short body look perfectly nice. Just wear clothes that fit and make you look proportional. Girls can wear heels if they want, and guys can sometimes get an extra inch out of platform shoes. Work with what you've got and you'll find that most people won't even notice. You should also remember that while you can make yourself taller, really tall people can't make themselves shorter. You got the better deal. You're awesome! People will perceive you the way you want to be perceived, so when you start thinking you're great, other people will follow. Tell yourself every day how awesome you are, take good care of yourself because you deserve it, stop the internal dialogue about how much you suck, and maybe make a list of all the things you like about yourself. If you don't have a lot of things that you like about yourself, then work on that! You are more than your height, just as everyone else is. I mean, if height was all that was...

Love means sharing yourself with someone else who accepts you for who you are. Before you can expect someone else to accept you, though, you must know what “self” you are projecting. You might start by writing down the answers to these questions. Your answers will help paint a picture of the “you” you are offering to your potential partner.  What are your best qualities? What do you like to do with your time? What do you love about yourself? What would you like to work on? What makes you feel uncomfortable? Whether you are an introvert or an extrovert, a hilarious crowd pleaser or a very kind friend, be confident about what you have to offer someone else. When it comes to finding love, there is no right personality type, no special trait that will get you ahead. Contrary to what you might see in romantic comedies and sitcoms, everyone has a shot at love - not just the most popular or conventionally attractive among us. So know what you have, and own it. Part of knowing yourself is knowing your relationship needs. Writing down what you consider to be the most important traits of your potential partner is a good way to figure out what you actually mean when you say you’re looking for love.  Try not to be too specific with this list of traits. For instance, instead of saying “six feet tall, brown hair, dark eyes,” focus on personality traits that matter to you. Do you want someone who’s honest to a fault? Someone who shares your passion for books? It may also be helpful to write down a list of definite “no’s.” For example, you might not want a partner who travels six months out of the year, or someone who doesn’t get along with your family. Remember that the point here is not to craft a projection of your future partner; you’re just sketching out the basic qualities you’d enjoy having in a partner so you can understand your own needs better. Chances are, the person you end up loving will only have a few of the qualities on your list.

Understand what you have to offer. Build confidence. Know what you’re looking for in someone else.


Lovebirds are active, playful birds so they need a cage that will accommodate all the toys and perches they need to keep them busy. The larger the cage, the comfortable it will be for the bird. The cage should also have horizontal bars on at least two sides. The bar spacing should be no more than ¾” apart to prevent injury. The cage should have at least two or three perches of various sizes, shapes, and textures to help your bird’s feet stay healthy and strong. The perches should be thick enough for the bird to stand comfortably on them without losing her balance. The smallest perch should be about ½” in diameter. Look for perches made from wooden dowels, natural wood branches, bonded sand and concrete, and rope. Your bird’s cage should be raised and kept away from air vents and doorways. Some birds can catch a cold if exposed to a draft while they are wet, such as after a bath. Lovebirds can be sensitive to smoke and strong odors, as well as loud noise. If you smoke, do not smoke in the room where your lovebird lives. A room that is too dark may cause your lovebird to behave oddly and develop health issues. But you should not place the cage near a window that gets full sun during the hottest months of the year as this may cause heat stroke or death for your little bird. Weak, unfiltered sunlight on the cage is ideal as this gives your bird vital ultraviolet-B light to keep her healthy. If your lovebird’s cage is near a window with weak light, you may want to consider investing in a special light bulb that emits safe levels of ultraviolet-B light to hang over your lovebird’s cage. You can turn on the light for 8 to 10 hours a day to make sure your bird gets enough light. Sleep is important for lovebirds. If you are going to keep your lovebird in a cage indoors, you may want to get a cover for the cage to help your bird sleep at night.  You can also get a smaller sleep cage for your bird if you don’t have enough space for a large cage indoors. Using a sleep cage will ensure your bird has a quiet, safe place to...

Make sure your bird gets 10-12 hours of uninterrupted sleep every night. Clean your bird’s cage once a week.

Low blood pressure can accompany dehydration, so you may be able to raise your blood pressure by increasing your water intake. Aim to drink at least eight to ten 8 oz cups of water per day. You should drink more water if this doesn’t help your symptoms or if you spend time outdoors or exercising. Health drinks with electrolytes can also help raise blood pressure, but you should avoid drinks with high sugar content. Eating several small meals, rather than one or two large meals, can help regulate your blood sugar and blood pressure. Aim to make these meals healthy and low in carbohydrates.  When you do eat carbohydrates, avoid processed carbs such as pasta and white bread. Go for complex carbs instead, such as oatmeal, whole grain pasta, whole grain bread, and barley. Low blood pressure after a meal, which is called postprandial hypotension, is common in adults over the age of 65. You may experience low blood pressure 1-2 hours after a meal. An important way to regulate your blood pressure and improve your overall health is to eat a healthy, well-balanced diet. A balanced diet includes lean meats and fish, whole grains, and a lot of fruits and vegetables. Avoid heavily processed foods that are high in sugar and fat.  While these do often contain higher levels of sodium, they are not a healthy source of other nutrients. These vitamins contribute to a healthy blood pressure function and circulation. Fortified cereal contains both minerals. Some other sources of B12 include fish and dairy products such a cheese, milk, and yogurt. Folate can be found in dark green vegetables such as broccoli and spinach. Alcohol contributes to dehydration, even if consumed in moderation. If you have problems with low blood pressure, you should avoid drinking alcohol in any amount. Caffeine constricts blood vessels, which can increase blood pressure.  Increasing your caffeine intake by a moderate amount can help raise your blood pressure. Be careful that you don't consume too much caffeine. Since it's a diuretic, caffeine may...

Low blood pressure commonly causes fainting, lightheadedness, and dizziness. Knowing when you may faint can help you deal with the symptoms before you faint. When you start to feel light-headed, sit down and place your head between your knees. You can also lie down when you feel faint. Standing up too fast can cause your blood pressure to drop, which can lead to dizziness, lightheadedness, or fainting. If you know you have low blood pressure, you should make sure to always stand up slowly.  When you are lying, sitting, or standing for too long, your blood pressure can drop. Move very slowly when you are transitioning from any of these positions. Make sure to stand up slowly when you first wake up in the morning. You can sit at the end of the bed and rotate your ankles and move your feet. Do the same with your wrists and hands before you stand up. The blood circulating through the legs helps keep your blood pressure at a normal level. Your doctor may recommend that you use compression socks or stockings. These items apply pressure to your lower legs, which helps blood circulate through your body. You should also avoid crossing your legs when you are sitting down. This can cut off the circulation in your legs, which can lower your blood pressure. If you have a medical condition that keeps you lying for long periods of time, your blood pressure may drop when you sit up or stand. Try to slowly increase the amount of time that you sit upright and stand to get used to it. Being too hot can make your blood pressure drop. Stay cool and out of the heat. Place fans around your room and keep the thermostat at a cool temperature. Avoid direct sunlight if possible. Don’t take hot baths or showers. The hot water can cause your blood pressure to drop. Instead, take lukewarm baths. Staying physical and exercising helps your circulation by getting your blood to flow and strengthening your heart. Cardio workouts help exercise your heart. Yoga poses and routines help improve your circulation. Make sure to talk to your doctor...

Low-calorie diets will help you lose weight and reduce body fat.  Monitor how many calories you eat daily and reduce this number by around 500 calories each day.  This will yield a 1 – 2 pound weight loss per week.   Count how many calories you're currently consuming.  You can use a food journal, app or online calculator to help you do this accurately.  Cut out about 500 calories from this number.  Your end result should be what you aim for daily for slow and safe body fat loss. Do not try to follow a very low calorie diet or consume less than 1,200 calories daily.  When you're calories are too low, you may stop losing weight or lose lean muscle mass, not body fat.  You may want to check with your physician or dietitian about the amount of calories you should be consuming in order to reduce body fat. Protein is essential for your body's metabolism.  Focusing on lean protein at all meals and snacks can help support weight loss and body fat reduction.  Lean protein should be included at all meals.  This will help ensure you meet your daily recommended amount. Women should aim for 46 g daily and men should aim for 56 g. Lean protein sources include:  poultry, lean beef, pork, legumes, tofu, low-fat dairy and seafood. Limit or avoid sources of protein that contain higher amounts of saturated fat.  Some studies have shown that a diet rich in saturated fats may increase body fat — especially in your abdomen.  Limit foods like:  full-fat dairy, fatty cuts of meat, and butter. In addition to lean protein, make a large part of your meals and snacks vegetables. You will also want to eat plenty of fruit. These foods are very nutritious and contain a lot of healthy nutrients your body needs.  It's generally recommended to consume about five to nine servings of fruits and vegetables each day.  Aim for one to two servings of fruit and the rest should be vegetables.  Also, when you're choosing foods from these groups, try to choose items that are brightly colored or darkly colored.

Low-grade fevers following major surgery are not uncommon, but temperatures of 101°F (38.3°C) or higher may indicate an infection. Other signs of an infection that warrant contacting your doctor immediately include new areas of redness around the site, pus drainage from the incision, drainage that has an odor or is discolored, tenderness in the area, warmth to the touch, or new swelling in the area of the incision. Wash your hands thoroughly, and apply gentle pressure using clean gauze pads or clean towels. Contact your doctor immediately. Do not press firmly on the incision. Apply gentle pressure and wrap the area with clean, dry gauze until you can get to your doctor or to another medical facility to have the area examined. If you develop abdominal pain, nausea or vomiting, or jaundice, which means yellowing of the skin or eyes, see a doctor as soon as possible. Or if you show the following symptoms of a blood clot: paleness, the extremity is cool to the touch, chest pain, shortness of breath, unusual swelling in an arm or leg.

For example, try setting your thermostat as low as is comfortable in the colder months and wearing more clothing indoors to save money on heating costs.   Never leave the thermostat on at all unless you are home. In addition, never leave energy-guzzling electronics like televisions plugged in when not in use.  In some cases, more drastic steps like investing in better windows and insulation for your home can save you a good amount of money each month. You can lower your water bill by simply changing a few of your habits. For example, try only running dishwasher and washing machine when they are absolutely full. You can also practice taking "navy showers," where you only run the water to wet yourself and rinse, leaving the water off while you soap up and cleanse.   You should also thoroughly inspect all of the pipes and fixtures in your house for leaks, no matter how small. Even a tiny leak can add up to a lot of lost water, and increased cost, over months or years. Additionally, you can invest in low-flow toilets and showers to save even more on water bills in the long run. Healthcare is another one of those costs that can seriously eat up your budget. By making a few simple changes, though, you can drastically cut your healthcare expenses while still maintaining your health. For example, consider:  Switch to generic versions of drugs you are taking. Ask your doctor for a discount on visits or procedures. Seriously, 61 percent of people got one when they asked in a recent study.  Listen to your doctor not just on medication advice but also health living advice. Shop around for drug prices at different pharmacies. If you are healthy and visit the doctor rarely, consider switching your health insurance to a high-deductible plan. This will cost more when you visit the doctor, but monthly premiums...

LuLaRoe leggings come in a standard size, along with a couple of extra-large sizes. Wearing a size that is too small for you will put stress on the seams. This extra tension will eventually cause the seams to split. Leggings that are too small will also make your figure look lumpy. Check out the size range for your desired pair of leggings. If the range is too small for you, choose the next size up. Gather the material on one leg into a ring. Slide your foot through the ring, up to your ankle. Slowly roll the leggings up your leg, past your knee. Repeat the process for the other leg. Gently pull leggings past your thighs and hips. If you pull the leggings on too hard, or yank them off, you will get holes along the seams. Treat them with the same gentleness and care that you would use for a delicate pair of pantyhose. While you can deviate from the washing instructions on most garments without causing too much damage, it is very important that you follow them exactly with LuLaRoe leggings. If you don't follow them, you will get rips, holes, and tears in your leggings.  Wash the leggings inside-out with cool water and like colors. Hand washing is preferable, but you can machine wash them on a gentle cycle. Allow the leggings to hang dry. Do not use a dryer.

Buy the right size. Pull the leggings on like you would pull on pantyhose. Never yank, pull, or tug on the leggings. Follow the washing instructions exactly.


Luckily, starting a promotion company does not require a large amount of startup money. You can easily work from home with a laptop and phone in the beginning if you're willing to meet with clients at their location. You may also need a varying amount of money to buy promotional materials, pay venue advance payments, and for other incidental expenses, depending on your services offered. If you are printing promotional materials, you will also need a printer or money to pay a printing service. Reduce your capital needs by looking for venues without large advance deposits, working on word-of-mouth advertising, and keeping ad spending low. Register with you city using a doing business as (DBA) name. You'll receive a business license, after which you can legally start doing business. Check with your local chamber of commerce to see if there are any special permits or licenses you need. If you are founding an actual company, like an LLC or partnership, you will need to decide on a structure for it. You'll then have to file articles of organization with your state to officially register the company. You may also be responsible for signing up to collect state sales tax and for buying insurance coverage. Check with your local branch of the Small Business Administration (SBA) for more information. Buy a computer and a phone that you can use for business purposes. Make sure to use a dedicated phone for business purposes, rather than just using your cell phone. If you need any other office or production equipment, be sure to purchase them as cheaply as possible to reduce your startup costs. You will need to have a network of industry professionals that you can use to support your events or create materials for you, particularly if you intend to offer a full suite of services. Make a list of contractors such as printers, caterers, event organizers, and luxury limo services. Look through reviews and local listings to find the best services. Their professional service and products will make your promotion company look good as well.

Luckily, these are all basic tools that you’ll probably find in your toolbox. You’ll need the following:  Crescent wrench Flat-head screwdriver Phillips screwdriver Adjustable pliers Needle-nose pliers Steel wool Peek underneath your sink and locate both shutoff valves—they’ll be at the lower end of the 2 flexible water supply lines that connect to the underside of the sink. Turn them clockwise until they are fully closed. Then, turn on the hot and cold faucet taps and drain the water from the lines. If the water supply won’t shut off completely, you’ll have to replace 1 or both shutoff valves. Unless you have some plumbing experience, it’s probably best to call a professional to do this repair. Simply jam a piece of cloth or a small wad of paper towel into the drain. You don’t want to lose one of the small pieces of the faucet assembly down there! If your sink has a stopper that fully blocks the drain opening, you can use that instead.

Lunch interviews are typically conversation oriented. Answer questions thoughtfully and carefully, and be aware of the conversation’s movement between more personal questions and questions relating to the position. A two way conversation means that both parties should ask questions. Asking questions will show you are excited about the company while giving you more insight into the details of your position. However, sometimes the employer will deliberately bring up tricky topics just to see how you handle them. In this situation, make sure to think before you speak so you can express your point of view clearly, without coming across as judgmental. If you need more time to formulate an answer to a question, take a bite and use the chewing time to think. As with any other interview, you should sell yourself. Make it clear to the interviewer why you want this position, and why you are a good fit for the company.   However, you shouldn't immediately begin selling yourself. Allow the interviewer to guide the conversation.   If there are multiple interviewees, say enough that your interviewers can evaluate you, but don’t dominate the conversation. Give others a chance to speak as well. You should be careful when dealing with an overly-friendly interviewer. Regardless of how informal they are with you, you should make an effort to behave professionally. Remember, they are still judging your behavior, so don't say or do anything risky. Your interviewer will be watching you closely to observe your social skills, and this includes your interactions with the waiting staff. Therefore, it's important polite and courteous to your waiter.  A simple thank you or a nod or smile to the staff whenever they take your order, bring your food and clear your dishes can go a long way to prove that you are polite and have good social skills. Even if you are served a wrong dish or you do not like what you have ordered, try to go with the flow. While you are engaged in a conversation with the interviewer, be aware of whether they sound...

Lying face-up is known as being in the supine position. Make sure that your patient is lying on a flat surface so that his arms and legs are at heart level. Give the patient at least 10 minutes of rest before taking his blood pressure. Resting will help his blood pressure to normalize, particularly is he is anxious, while also allowing the heart and brachial pulse to level out. Both of your patient’s arms should be exposed. Any sleeves should be rolled up loosely and out of the way. Use your index and middle finger to locate the pulse site. Do not use your thumb because it has its own pulse that could make finding your patient’s pulse more difficult. The brachial pulse is usually felt just above the antecubital fossa--the middle part of the elbow bend. Make sure that the cuff is placed about two inches above the brachial pulse site. To avoid inaccurate readings, make sure that the the cuff is loose enough that it can rotate around the arm slightly, but not so loose that it could slip down the arm. If possible, use a blood pressure cuff that has a width that is approximately two-thirds of the length of the patient’s arm. To take the blood pressure reading,  place the diaphragm (circular piece) of the stethoscope on the brachial pulse. Close the valve of the hand-pump and use it to inflate the cuff to about 20 mmHg above regular blood pressure or until the pulsating sound or your patient’s pulse is no longer audible.  Systolic pressure describes the maximum arterial pressure created by the contraction of the heart’s left ventricle. Diastolic pressure describes the minimum amount of pressure created when the ventricles fill with blood during the beginning of the cardiac cycle. Release the pressure slowly at a rate of 2 to 3 mmHg by opening the valve while closely monitoring the manometer (the pressure gauge).  Take note when the pulsating sound returns, and again when it disappears--the systolic blood pressure is the point where the pulsating sound returns and the diastolic blood pressure is when the pulsating...

Ask the patient to lie down in a face-up position.  Locate the brachial artery. Wrap the blood pressure cuff around the patient’s left arm.  Inflate the cuff to find the systolic blood pressure of the arm. Deflate the cuff.


Lying requires a lot more mental effort than telling the truth. Eliminate as much of the mental effort as you can by knowing the lie before you tell it. Try to bend the truth instead of making up an entire story. It is much easier  for a person to believe something that could actually happen.  For example, instead of making up a story about going to a party, you may go to a party but lie about some of the details such as who else went and what you did. If you went out to eat with your family at a specific restaurant, you may lie and say you went to the restaurant with a date but tell the truth about what you ate. Ask yourself if you would believe the lie that you are telling. If it is hard for you to believe, the other person probably will not believe it either. Place yourself in the other person's shoes and think of the questions they may ask. This will also help you identify any holes in your story.  For example, you probably shouldn't lie about going to a party if your friend knows that your rarely go to them. Also think about the personality and traits of the person that you are lying to. You know the things that are likely to believe. What works on one person may not work on another. Stand in front of the mirror and practice what you are going to say.  If you are not well prepared, you are more likely to make something up on the spot. When you make something up on the spot, it is easier for the other person to notice that you are lying.  Consider audio and/or video recording yourself lying. This will help you identify any awkward pauses or mannerisms that you do that may give you away. The more you can practice the better. If you rehearse a lot, it should feel very natural when you talk to the other person. If possible, do not include any other people in your lie. The more people that know you are lying, the more likely you are to get caught. If you do need someone else to cover for you, only tell them what they need to know. Do not tell them your entire plan.  For example, if you are sneaking out of the...

Bend the truth. Tell a believable lie. Practice saying the lie. Try not to involve other people.


Lynch syndrome is a genetic condition. The genetic error that exists in those people with Lynch syndrome is a group of genes that code for proteins that actually help to repair genes.  This group of genes are for “mismatch repair genes,” which are those genes that repair the relatively common mistakes when DNA reproduces itself. Errors in this matching process can be repaired normally, but in Lynch Syndrome, they cannot be repaired because the genes that code for the proteins that do the repair are themselves damaged.  The cause of the cancers associated with Lynch syndrome is believed to be an accumulation of these errors mutations in the DNA. If a mother or a father has one copy out of two of this gene, there is a 50% chance that it was passed on to their child. If your genetic test is positive for Lynch syndrome, it means that your lifetime risk of cancer is between 60 and 80%. It does not mean you will definitely have colon or endometrial cancer, but the risk of colon and endometrial cancer as well as other cancers is increased.  The lifetime risk of endometrial cancer can range from 20 to 60%. The lifetime risk of other cancers are increased by less than 20%. Lynch syndrome is not treatable. If your genetic testing is positive, this means that you will need to consult with a genetic counselor as well as your physician to determine your best course of action for cancer prevention and future screening. This is likely to include a yearly colonoscopy, a yearly endometrial biopsy, as well as other screening tests, depending on your gender.

MLA style uses either footnotes or endnotes to present bibliographic information about sources that are referenced in a paper or project. If you select the footnote option, mark the actual point in your writing where you refer to the PowerPoint presentation with a number in superscript and write the full citation at the bottom of the page. If you choose to use endnotes, write the full citations in an alphabetical "Works Cited" list at the end of the paper. For example: "It has been stated that electronics have hindered man's relationship with nature.1" If you see a PowerPoint presentation at a conference or lecture, start by citing the name of the presenter. Write the individual's last name first, followed by a comma and then their first name. If you are citing a digital PowerPoint presentation file, write the name of its author. For instance, "Smith, John." If the PowerPoint presentation you wish to cite was part of a conference or lecture, include information about the event itself. List the name of the event, the venue, the city it was held in, as well as the date. Note what type of lecture it was. For instance: Smith, John. "Sensitivity and Social Media." Today's Social Networks. Thomson Auditorium. Hamilton. Jan. 23, 2016. Keynote address. If you are citing a PowerPoint file that you viewed on your computer, cite the date it was created where you would write the event information for a live presentation. This information should follow the author's name and the title of the file. Instead of indicating the type of lecture you saw, write what type of digital medium it is.  When you write the date, abbreviate the month by writing its first three letters, followed by a period. For example, you would write: "Smith, John. "Sensitivity and Social Media." Jan. 2016. PowerPoint presentation."

MSM is not associated with any health risks, drug interactions, or side effects. However, you should still ask your doctor if taking an MSM supplement is right for you. They might recommend other treatment options or test for underlying conditions if you're experiencing premature or unusual hair loss. Additionally, there's little scientific evidence that MSM promotes hair growth or improves hair loss. While there's no scientific evidence that MSM causes side effects, some people report stomach pain, diarrhea, headache, and fatigue. Stop taking MSM and seek medical attention if you experience signs of an allergic reaction, such as skin rash, trouble breathing, or swelling. Medical professionals aren't sure if MSM can affect pregnancy or pass to an infant through breast milk. Even if there's no known harmful effects, you should still avoid taking it if you are pregnant, plan on becoming pregnant, or are breastfeeding.

Talk to your doctor before taking any dietary supplement. Lower your dose or stop taking MSM if you experience side effects. Don't take MSM if you're pregnant or breastfeeding.


Mac has several different recovery options, but in order to perform a restore, you must have previously configured a Time Capsule backup. Otherwise, your options are limited to repairing the hard disk or formatting and reinstalling a fresh copy of OS X. Connect an external hard drive to your Mac that is equal or greater in size to your Mac’s internal hard drive. If you have never set up a Time Capsule before, OS X will ask if you want to configure the newly connected drive as one. Select Use as Backup Disk.  Select “Encrypt backup Disk” if you want to add password protection to your backup file. You can schedule automatic backups and specify specific files in the Options menu. Reboot the Mac and hold down the Command key + R while the system boots up. This will open the OS X Recovery Tool. From here you can pick your recovery option. Select Restore From Time Machine Backup to load your latest disk image from the external drive.   If you have multiple backups stored on the Time Capsule, you will be given a list to choose from. Pick one from before you started having issues with the computer. Unlike System Restore in Windows, you can use a Time Capsule backup to retrieve files that were deleted in the past, as long as you have a backup from when the file existed. If you don’t have a Time Capsule backup, then the only way to restore OS X is by formatting and reinstalling. You can do this from the OS X Recovery Tool. Press Command+R while rebooting the Mac. Select Reinstall Mac OS X.   Note: You will need to be connected to the internet in order to successfully reinstall your copy of Mac OS X without the disc. Reinstalling the operating system will delete all of your saved data, programs, and settings.

Macadamia nuts are known for being difficult to remove from their shells. Wear safety glasses or goggles to shield your eyes from any bits of shell that may go flying during this process. Basic protective equipment can be purchased at nearly any drug or grocery store. A device made specifically for the task of cracking macadamia nuts will assist you in shelling these difficult nuts. The device is made to crack the shell while preserving the integrity of the nut inside. These may be difficult to find in local stores, so order one online through Amazon or another online seller if you cannot find any in a store near you. Using your nut cracker, begin cracking the shells. Most crackers will have you pull or turn a crank that will put an immense amount of pressure on the nut until it finally cracks. Once it has cracked, peel away the rest of the shell to expose the nut inside. Throw away the bits of shell and store the nut in a bowl or container nearby.
