A bachelor's degree in hospitality can set you firmly on the path for a career as an event planner.  In fact, some hospitality degree programs offer concentrations in event planning, so research each school's offerings closely.  Other degrees, such as communications or public relations, can be a good basis for a career in event planning.  One of the strongest skills an event planner must have is communication, so this kind of background can be a wonderful foundation. While a bachelor's degree typically takes four years to complete, there are also shorter, two-year associate degree programs in hospitality, travel and tourism and event planning that can be a good starting point in your training. Even if you don't have a degree that's directly related, you can complete an event planning and management certificate program to transition into this field.  Some of these programs allow students to specialize and focus on areas such as wedding, sports or entertainment planning. The kinds of classes you can expect to take as part of your training may include special events marketing, facilities operations, media relations, cost control strategies, event coordination, risk management, economics and professional ethics. A mentor is someone who can teach, encourage and guide you in your career.  Mentorship often develops from a relationship you already have in place or establish with someone you admire.  Think about what you want in a mentor.  Do  you need someone to model professional behavior?  Do your financial management skills need work?  Are you looking to become a more effective communicator?  Approach people you already know who can share their knowledge with you.  It may not necessarily be someone in your field; what's important is that you get what you need from the relationship. You may gravitate toward someone as a mentor because he or she is successful, which also means they're busy.  Before you ask someone to spend time helping you, think about how you can help them.  Offer to pitch in on a project, organize...

A back spasm may be triggered by a prolonged period of inactivity followed by a sudden movement. Back spasms also may follow overuse of the back muscles, such as heavy lifting, or some other injury.  There are many different treatments for back spasms. Understanding what caused the spasm can help you find the most effective treatment. If your spasm was caused by a sudden movement after a period of inactivity, you have no further underlying physical problem that needs treatment. Simply use ice and heat, stay active, and do some gentle stretching.  You may want to discuss the incident with your doctor. They can help you identify the probable trigger of your muscle spasm. You might also talk to a personal trainer or physical therapist. Massage therapy from a certified professional can improve circulation and help your muscles relax. If you feel your spasm was caused by general stress, massage therapy can help. You may notice a difference after a single session. However, typically you need several sessions over the course of a couple of months if you want to see lasting results from massage therapy. If at-home treatment doesn't resolve your problem, or if you continue to have muscle spasms in the same area, your primary physician may order tests to identify the cause.  Discuss your back spasms with your doctor, and tell them what you've been doing to treat them at home. Your doctor may order X-rays, CAT scans, or an MRI to further evaluate the condition of your back. If you tore or injured a muscle, physical therapy can help rehabilitate that muscle. Physical therapy also helps correct muscle imbalances, which can cause one muscle to overwork and lead to spasms. A physical therapist can also provide you with a custom exercise routine designed to treat the specific issues that are causing your back spasms. If your spine is out of alignment, or if you've had a spinal injury, such as a herniated disc, you may need chiropractic care to address the cause of your back spasms. Chiropractors typically use manual...

A balanced diet requires eating a variety of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, low-fat dairy products, and lean protein (this includes beans and other legumes, nuts and seeds). Most of the foods you eat every day should fit into one of these categories.  Try to make plant-derived foods such as whole grains, vegetables and fruits the foundation of every meal.  After establishing a basis of plant-derived foods for a meal, then add in a moderate amount of low-fat dairy and lean protein items. Since calories, nutrients and fiber content of foods in the same food group can differ dramatically, good nutrition depends on getting a variety of different foods from within the food groups.  Mix up it by using an assortment of colors, shapes, flavors and textures.  The diversity in your choices will also make meals more interesting and appealing for everyone. When people are faced with overly large portions, they tend to overeat. Check the packages of foods you’re preparing to  about serving sizes and follow the guidelines. Unless you intend to make a lot of food so that there will be leftovers, try to follow basic serving size guidelines.  One serving of meat or fish is approximately 3 ounces.  One serving of dairy is approximately 1 cup. One serving of vegetables is approximately 1 cup raw and ½ cup cooked. One serving of whole grains is 1 slice of bread, 1 cup of dry cereal, and ½ cup cooked rice, cereal and pasta. One serving of fruit is 1 medium sized fresh piece (approximately the size of a baseball) and ¼ cup dried. While they can’t be eliminated completely, a healthy, balanced diet includes a very low percentage of these types of foods.  Our bodies need fat, but try to mostly choose healthy fats for your meals. A few healthy fat options are avocados, salmon, albacore tuna, nuts and peanut butter. Teenagers and adults over the age of 50 need a lot of calcium in their diets. Small children, adolescent girls, and women of childbearing age need plenty of iron, which you can get from lean meats and cereals (with added...

A baptism is a happy occasion, so don’t get hung up on taking the “perfect” photo. Instead, encourage your subjects to relax and enjoy themselves. Encourage smiles, hugs, and shows of affection. Although you are taking staged photos, your subjects do not all have to be looking at the camera. Encourage looking at the person being baptized, at grandparents, etc. Once you have your subjects arranged the way you want them, take at least three shots in a row. Taking 3 shots will lessen the likelihood of multiple subjects blinking, staring away from the camera, etc. You can give warning each time, or give warning once and take three shots. Experiment to find which approach works best for your subjects. Take now, delete later. While you may end up with a camera filled to the brim with photos, it is far better to have too many shots than too few, or one substandard photo per pose. Staged photos are not seeking to catch people off guard, so make sure your subjects have fair warning and plenty of time to smile, look up, or arrange themselves according to their preference. You do not have to make a large announcement each time. Instead, you can say a simple, “Ready, go!” or you can count to three. Make sure you build trust with your subjects by warning them of impending photos. Baptism doesn’t only involve family and friends, and the photos should reflect that. Invite the clergy involved in the baptism to join in photos, if they’d like. In addition to clergy, make the church or venue themselves a part of the story. Photograph the person being baptized beside the river or baptismal font, for instance. Although your main focus might be capturing family and friends, try to get some photos of the person being baptized on their own. If you are at a christening, you can set the child up on a pew or something similar, and if you are photographing the baptism an older child or adult, you can have them smiling next to the baptismal. Whatever the preferred scenario, make sure you get some photos highlighting the person being...

A bar graph, usually used to show how much of one thing exists compared to another, is easy to create and looks like a series of vertical or horizontal rectangles of different lengths. The y-axis will indicate how much of something there is and the x-axis will represent what you are measuring (if you want your rectangles to be vertical). If you would like them to be horizontal, switch which type of data goes on which axis. A histogram is a special bar graph designed to show the distribution of data. On this type of bar graph, both axes will have number values, since numbers will be the value being measured. This type of graph shows data as points and connects those points with a line. It is useful for showing how a particular variable has changed over time, like weight, height, salary, or a company’s GDP for example. An area graph is a special kind of line graph, which shows multiple sets of these changes on the same graph so as to make them easy to compare. The area below each line will be filled in a different color. This allows people to easily see which data sets were more negative or positive. An example of the type of data used on such a chart is showing the change over time in average house prices in three separate neighborhoods. . This is a circle graph which is comprised of a circle, broken up into individually colored sections which represent data. These sections or slices are sized relative to the amount of data they represent. This type of chart is useful for showing how the different parts of a whole compare to each other. It is difficult to draw accurately by hand, however, since you need to be able to calculate the angles necessary to represent percentages of a whole. Drawing one will require a protractor, though there are many computer programs and websites which will make a chart for you if you enter the data. For example, you can use a pie chart to show relatively how many members of a class are of a particular ethnicity or what types of colleges or work forces students from a particular...

A bar is simply one line of your song. Most raps are built out of 16 or 32 bar verses though they can be as short as 8 or 12 bars as well. If you're writing the whole song yourself you might have 2-3 verses and a hook. You might also have a short 8-10 bar bridge, which is a short verse with a slightly different beat or structure. You can write your rap without knowing the bars as well. Simply write until you feel like your verse is finished, then edit the beat to fit the desired length. Raps are written around rhymes. Rhyme connects to lines so that they flow smoothly together, pulling the listener through the song. While all lines of your rap don't need to rhyme, and probably should not, you need to have a firm grasp of rhyme techniques to become a rapper. Luckily, this doesn't require any studying, just an ear for what sounds good to you. Still, it can help to know the different types of rhyme common in rap:   Simple Rhyme: When the last syllables of two lines rhyme, like "Can" and "man." This is the most common and basic form of rhyme.  Multi-syllabic rhyme: One of the best ways to show your lyrical skills is to rhyme multiple syllables at once. This can stretch across multiple words as well, such as Big Daddy Kane in "One Day:" "Ain’t no need for wondering who’s the man/ Staying looking right always an exclusive brand."  Slant Rhyme: Rhyming two closely related, but technically non-rhyming, words. Usually, they have a common vowel sound. This is incredibly common in rap, because how you say/sing the words can make them sound much more similar. Examples include "Nose" and "go," or "orange" and "porridge."   Internal Rhyme (In-Rhyme): Rhyming words that do not come at the end of a line but in the middle of it. For example, Madvillains' "Rhinestone Cowboy:" "Made of fine chrome alloy / find him on the grind he's a rhinestone cowboy." Punchlines are the big lines, jokes, or rhymes that elevate the song from good to great. There are thousands of great examples, but they are mostly a matter of personal...

A barre is a simple rail to help you keep your balance when doing warming up and practicing new moves. Position the barre at a comfortable height, just at or above your waist. You can buy a barre online or from some sporting goods stores. You can also use PVC pipes to make a freestanding barre for your home.  A sturdy barre will be necessary for most beginners to help them keep balance as they improve their technique and muscle memory. A typical ballet barre has a lower and an upper barre attached to the same wall or frame. The lower barre is usually 32.28 inches (82.0 cm) from the floor, and the upper barre is 41.34 inches (105.0 cm) from the floor. If you don’t want to invest in a home barre, talk to local dance studios to see if they have open hours. Often, you pay a small practice fee for open hours in exchange for free time to use the shared studio space and equipment, including their barre. Mastering the position and movement of your arms, known in ballet as port de bras, is often the first exercise for beginners. Take some time each day to flow through the basic arm positions. These include not only the arms complimenting each foot position, but also:  En avant (forward). For this, hold your arms out directly in front of your torso, bending them at the elbows to round them slightly. Face your palms in toward your body, and keep your fingers close but not so close that they touch. En haut (high up). Bring your arms up from en avant and hold them above your head, keeping your shoulders flat. Keep your elbows round and your fingers just slightly apart. En bas (below). Carefully and intentionally bring your arms down directly in front of your hips from en haut. Face your palms inward toward your legs, keep your elbows round, and maintain spacing between your fingers. Then, bring your arms back up to en avant and repeat the flow for at least 5 or so minutes. Whether you’re taking classes or just exploring your interest in ballet, practicing the basic positions is essential. Set aside at least 15 minutes...

A basic stethoscope is one of the easiest ways to listen to the fetal heartbeat at home. When you are between 18 and 20 weeks pregnant, the heartbeat should be strong enough for you to listen to with this method. Simply place the stethoscope on your belly and listen. You may have to move it around a bit to find the heartbeat. Be patient. Quality does matter, so make sure to purchase a stethoscope from a reputable seller. You can find a wide variety of brands at your local drugstore, and even at a store selling office supplies. Or borrow one from a friend or family member in the medical field if you can. New technology can make it very easy to listen to your baby's heartbeat wherever you are. There are several different apps that you can purchase and download to your smartphone to listen to the heartbeat. Some will even allow you to record the sound of the heartbeat so you can play it for your friends and family. These are most reliable later in pregnancy. You can buy relatively inexpensive fetal heart rate monitors to use at home. This can be a great option if you are prone to stress and are reassured by listening to the heartbeat between visits to your doctor. However, you should be aware that these monitors are not as strong as the ones used by your doctor. Don't expect them to be able to pick up the sound of the heartbeat until you are in at least your fifth month of pregnancy. Make sure to consult your doctor before purchasing an at-home monitor. Once you have one, follow the instructions carefully. Even when you are using the proper tools, there are many reasons that you may not be able to detect the fetal heartbeat yourself. It's important to know that things such as the baby's position and your weight can impact whether or not you will clearly hear a heartbeat. If you feel there is reason to be concerned, make sure to contact your healthcare provider right away.

A bear's sense of smell is extremely acute, and they are constantly foraging in the summer and fall months. A bear bag can help hide the scent of your food, keeping the bears at bay. A bear bag is made of very strong polyethylene. Place your food in a separate aluminum liner and then in the bag, which the bear can't rip into. Put the whole thing in a waterproof, airtight plastic bag to minimize scents. The most dangerous bear is one that doesn't realize you're coming. If you make noise to announce your presence, they're more likely to get out of the way and leave you alone. If you don’t want to talk, carry a satellite radio and set it to a talk show. A bear is more likely to approach an individual than a group. Groups tend to make more noise than individuals, so the bear has a chance to silently sneak away before you run into it. When you see a bear, back away slowly, keeping an eye on the bear as you do. Take another route, or simply hike back the way you came. If you leave it alone, it will likely leave you alone. However, it's never safe to enter an area where you see a bear. If you spot one, get out of that area.

A benchmark location is a spot that you already know the height of thanks to previous land surveys. In order to get the most accurate data out of your dumpy level, you’ll need to search online and find a benchmark location located close to the spot you want to measure.  You can look up benchmark locations by visiting sites like https://www.geocaching.com/mark/.  If you can’t find a benchmark location, you can measure from a distinct land feature, such as a large tree or building, instead. Place your tripod on a patch of flat, clear ground that sits between your benchmark location and the spot you want to measure. Then, undo the latches on your tripod’s legs and extend each leg out. Adjust the legs until your tripod is completely level, then close each latch.  Almost all tripods come with a built-in bubble level. You can use this to assess whether or not the tripod is level. To measure the area properly, make sure you set up in a spot that’s slightly higher than your benchmark location. Screw your dumpy level onto the tripod’s base plate, then connect the base plate to the main tripod body. Once the instrument is securely attached, turn the dumpy level’s telescope so that it sits parallel with 2 of the device’s leveling screws. If the dumpy level wobbles when tapped, tighten the leveling screws to better secure the device. Look for a traditional bubble level located somewhere on your device. When you find it, grab the 2 leveling screws that are parallel to the device’s telescope and twist them in opposite directions. Do this until the bubble sits in the exact center of the level.  For the best results, turn the screws with an even amount of force and pressure. You’ll typically find the bubble level either on top of or below the device’s telescope. After adjusting your first 2 leveling screws, turn your telescope approximately 90 degrees so that it sits parallel to the device’s third leveling screw. Then, adjust this screw until the bubble once again sits in the center of the level. Vintage dumpy levels often...

A bent and bowed posture is a common sign of sadness. To convey sadness using your body, you might try things like:  Slumping your shoulders forward Bending your torso downward Sitting with your torso bent toward your knees A vacant or distant expression is often interpreted as a sign of sadness or of being lost in thought. In particular, if you keep your gaze pointed downward, others might think you are sad. Drooping, lowered, or closed eyelids are part of many facial expressions that indicate sadness. If you want to pretend you are sad by using this method, it is best to combine it with other physical signs of sadness, since lowering your eyelids alone might just make it seem like you are sleepy or squinting. A tensed, tightened brow is a classic sign of being lost in thought. Studies also show that it is often combined with other physical signs of sadness. This technique works especially well when combined with others, such as gazing downward. A downturned brow can be a sign of sadness as well as one of displeasure. Frowning too intensely, however, can make it look like you are scowling or angry. Use this technique sparingly and in combination with other physical signs of sadness. You can also show sadness with your mouth by sticking your lip outwards. A pouting expression can show that a person is upset for a variety of reasons. When it is combined with other techniques, such as gazing downwards or slumping your body, it is sure to make others believe you are sad. Headaches are a common sign of depression or sadness. If you want to make others believe that you are sad, you can try to pretend that you have a headache. This can be easily done by touching or rubbing your face, especially your forehead. Shedding tears is a typical reaction to feeling sad. If you can cry at will, other people might easily believe that you are upset. However, it can be difficult to cry convincingly, since most people can tell the difference between real and pretend expressions of sadness. Only attempt this method if you are...

A benzene derivative is based on a benzene molecule, C6H6, which three evenly-spaced double bonds. As with other cyclic hydrocarbons, there's no need to use a number if the ring only has one substituent. It's possible to name your benzene molecule as you would any other cyclic hydrocarbon, starting alphabetically with the first substituent and assigning numbers going around.  However, there are some special designations for substituent positions on benzene molecules:  Ortho, or o-: The two substituents are located at 1 and 2. Meta, or m-: The two substituents are located at 1 and 3. Para, or p-: The two substituents are located at 1 and 4.

A big part of New Year's Eve celebrations in the US is watching the ball drop in Times Square at midnight. It can be a good idea to have some way for your guests to watch the ball as it descends at midnight. You might try using some of these methods to bring the ball drop to your guests:  Make sure you subscribe to a television channel that covers the event. You can find live streaming coverage of the ball drop online. You might move the party to a local bar around midnight to watch the countdown together. A great party is often not complete without music. Music can help any party to feel alive, and your New Year's Eve celebration isn't any different. Think about what kind of music you and your guests might want to listen to and build a great playlist for the party.  Consider the musical taste of those attending your party. Avoid songs that might make some guests uncomfortable. Make sure you have enough music to cover the length of the party. You could try streaming services like Pandora to play music during your party. Try to find a good volume level for your party. The point of a party is to celebrate. During the party, it's a good idea to spend some time with everyone who attended. This can help make them feel welcome and included in the celebration. Always keep an eye on guests to make sure they are having the best time possible.  Plan fun group activities. For example, you might build a photo booth or offer some games for people to play.  If someone looks alone or bored, bring them into a conversation or start one up with them. Introduce new people to one another. The focus of the evening will be on the countdown to midnight and the new year.  As the clock approaches 12, you'll want to gather everyone around and get ready for the countdown. This can be a great way to bring everyone together and end your New Year's Eve party on a high note.  Most people start counting down around 10 seconds from midnight.

A binary option is based on a “yes” or “no” proposition to whether an underlying asset will be above a certain price at a specified time. If you answer yes and are correct at the time of expiry, you win and are “in the money.” If you answer no and lose, you lose the money you invested. You're “out of the money.”  However, unlike other options, you can only make or lose up to $100 per options contract.  An underlying asset in binary options trading can be a specific company's stock; a commodity like gold; a stock index like the S&P 500 Index; Bitcoin; a Forex pairing, which is the value of one foreign currency against another; or a news event, such as whether the Federal Reserve will increase or decrease rates.  "In the money” and “out of the money” simply refer to whether you answered the proposition a) correctly and are “in the money” or b) incorrectly and are “out of the money.”  The expiry date is the time or date at which the binary option expires, and the price is examined to see if it increased or decreased. It can be anywhere from five minutes to over a month after you placed the trade. Just like rolling the dice in a game of craps, you either win the pot or lose what you put in the pot. For example, if the proposition is, “Will the price of gold be above $1,150 by 1:30 p.m. today?” and you decide yes it will be, you would place a binary call option. If the option were trading at $35 (bid price) and $37.50 (ask price) at 1 p.m., you'd buy at $37.50. (If you were selling, you'd sell at $35.) If you're correct at 1:30 p.m. and the price of gold is above $1,150, your option is now worth $100.  Your profit, then, is calculated like this: $100 (total amount you can make on one trading contract) - $37.50 (the price you paid for that contract) = $62.50 minus fees. You're in the money.  So, for every winner, there's a loser on the other end. It's a zero-sum game. A call option is essentially when you predict that the underlying asset will increase in price. Even if an underlying asset only increases by a tenth...

A bite from a black widow is often immediately painful and can be distinguished from other spider and insect bites by the two puncture marks it makes on the skin. Although it may be painless, usually a black widow bite is at least moderately painful because the spider has long, sharp fangs. The two-fanged puncture wound then starts to turn red, become inflamed and form a nodule. Tenderness at the bite site tends to increase and spread out within an hour. A bite from a brown recluse spider is usually painless or causes a mild stinging sensation similar to a mosquito bite. Within about 30 – 60 minutes however, the bite area becomes red and inflamed with a central sore called a "bull’s eye" lesion. Redness and intense pain develop within eight hours as the central sore becomes larger, fills with blood, ruptures and then leaves a very tender ulcer. During this stage, a deep blue or purple area often forms around the bite, usually with a red ring around it. Medical attention is usually only needed if an ulcer forms and lasts for more than a few weeks. Although tarantulas are arguably some of the most scary looking spiders, the types native to North and South America are not venomous and rarely ever bite. However, these "New World" tarantulas do throw or eject needle-like black hairs when agitated or threatened. Note that tarantula species native to Africa and the Middle East lack needle-like hairs, but they are more aggressive and produce venom. The bites from black widow and brown recluse spiders are most identifiable, mostly due to the fact that they have the most potent venom and typically cause the most symptoms. However, other spider bites are more common and can lead to pain and swelling also. For example, the Hobo is a large, fast-running spider with yellow markings on its brown back. They inject neurotoxic venom when they bite people that can cause some surrounding skin to die, but not nearly to the extent that brown recluse venom does.  Bites from Hobo and Sac spiders cause discomfort and wounds that...

A biting gnat has four razor-sharp blades in its mouth which tear your skin, leaving a small open wound. Clean on and around the affected area with mild soap and water. Use a washcloth or paper towel to remove any excess moisture. Gnats can carry bacteria from things like rotten food, so you should swab the area thoroughly with a cotton ball. Tape the cotton ball to the wound to allow the antiseptic to soak into the bite. Common topical antiseptics include alcohol, iodine, and hydrogen peroxide Vinegar is a popular natural home remedy used to relieve swelling, pain, and redness in wasp and bee stings. It may help reduce the pain and itch of gnat bites, as well.  Soak a cotton ball in the vinegar and apply it to the affected area until it feels better. This ointment is available over-the-counter and it has both antibacterial and pain relieving properties. Apply some to your gnat bites for relief. Aspirin reduces inflammation, and it may help reduce the swelling and itching of your bite. Crush an aspirin pill with the back of a spoon, and mix it with a small amount of water to make a paste. Rub the paste onto the affected area. Commercial anti-itch creams like Cortizone-10 contain hydrocortisone, a chemical agent that temporarily relieves itching. Most such creams also contain ingredients like aloe, to soothe and moisturize the skin. If there is swelling in the area, ice cubes or an ice pack will help reduce the swelling. Apply the ice to your skin and hold it in place until the swelling goes down. Cold water can help reduce the itching and swelling of bug bites. If you have multiple bites, taking a cool shower for ten minutes or so may make you feel better. Scratching certain types of stings and bites can spread venom through your skin, causing a more pain and itching. Scratching also opens the wound, which can lead to infection. If you see pus forming in the bite, this is a sign of bacterial infection. See a doctor as soon as possible. In rare cases, insect bites can cause a severe allergic reaction that can...

A blood transfusion is considered a success if the donor cells survive 5 to 7 days in the recipient's circulation. This is because the huge range of equine blood types makes an exact match almost impossible.  The aim of the transfusion is to buy time while the recipient's bone marrow makes replacement red blood cells. For a first blood transfusion, the recipient's immune system swings into action over a relatively long period of a few days. For a second transfusion, (where antibodies to the foreign blood already exist) or if an incompatible blood type is given, a much more violent, or anaphylactic reaction can happen. Other potential complications include transfusing the horse with infected blood, or giving blood that contains too much anti-coagulant. The latter interferes with the natural clotting ability of the blood and could lead to hemorrhage. Anaphylaxis is a classic type I hypersensitivity reaction. In short, it causes the body to activate its immune system to get rid of foreign cells, but the immune system overreacts and the body goes into a state of shock and circulatory collapse. If the transfusion continues, or treatment for the anaphylaxis is not given, the horse will collapse and die - sometimes as soon as 20 minutes after starting the transfusion. As mentioned above, an anaphylactic reaction is the sudden switching on of the recipient horse's immune system such that it attacks the donor blood cells, causing them to burst within a few minutes of administration. These damaged cells release their contents, including potassium and hemoglobin, into the blood stream. Signs that this is happening include fever, shaking, rapid shallow breathing, a racing heart rate, jaundiced whites of the eyes and gums, and urine with a bright orange or strong yellow color. If the horse starts to shake, breathe quickly, and has an erratic heart rate the transfusion must be stopped and treatment for anaphylaxis must be administered immediately.  Treatment involves the administration of adrenaline at a rate of 1:1000,...

A brooder is a small box that your chicks will live in for the first few months. During this time they're still growing their adult feathers, so they need to be kept in a warm, secure environment for protection. The brooder should be kept inside your garage, laundry room or another safe indoor area.  A sturdy cardboard or plastic box works well as a brooder. You can also get a special wooden chicken brooder from a farm supply store if you prefer. After a week or two, place a low perch in the brooder, such as a thin bar or stick. The chicks will learn to practice hopping up on the perch. You'll need to add soft, comfortable flooring that can easily be changed out every few days. Pet litter made from pine shavings works well. You could also use shredded newspaper in a pinch, but the ink can stain the fuzzy chicks. Do not use slippery computer paper or glossy paper to line the floor.  The litter should be changed every few days to keep the chicks from getting sick. Chicks are prone to diseases that can easily spread in dirty conditions. If the floor of the brooder is wire, be sure to cover it with solid cardboard or wood to keep the chicks' feet from slipping through. Chicks can die if they get too cold or too hot, so it's essential to buy a lamp or a brood heater for your brooder so you can keep them at the ideal temperature. A light bulb with a reflector should provide the right amount of heat, but always check with a thermometer. You can use a 100 watt red bulb or a red heat lamp (avoid using bright lights). Affix the lamp to the top of the brooder along with a thermometer you can use to monitor the temperature.  The temperature should be kept between 90 and 100 degrees Fahrenheit for the first week of the chicks' lives. After that, you can reduce it by five degrees each week. Keep doing so until the chicks have developed their feathers after about five to eight weeks. Adjust the heat by raising or lowering the light or changing the wattage of the bulb. If the chicks are panting or pressed against the sides...

A bur is a seed that has a hook or teeth on it. These teeth or hooks are designed to latch onto a passing animal’s fur, as a means of dispersing the seeds elsewhere. Burrs come in all shapes and sizes but they all are seeds that attach themselves to animals. Plant awns are similar to burrs except they are bristle-shaped seeds that are shaped like a fish hook. Both awns and burrs attach to animals and their removal is the same process. In the case of awns, however, the seeds can physically work their way into a dog's skin, causing pain, infection, and, in extreme cases, death. Both burrs and awns can latch on anywhere in your dog’s body. If your dog runs into a weedy, grassy, or wooded area carefully check the following spots:  Ear flaps Nose Eyes Armpits Under the tail Between each toe and the toe pads This is most dangerous time for burrs and awns, as this is when plants dry out and are ready to shed their seed packets. During this time of year it is best to comb your dog out daily to eliminate any burrs.

A car is a big investment for most people, and by making your prankee believe that his car window has been destroyed, you can get a hilarious response out of him. You'll have some cleanup after you set up the prank, but to perform it you'll only need:  Car window (similar to the prankee's car window) Gloves (recommended; optional)  NOTE: cheap car windows can likely be purchased from your local junkyard or salvage shop. You might even be able to get staff to help you choose the right kind of window by bringing them in on the prank! You don't want to be accused of theft at any point during this prank, so you should only do this with close friends. While the prankee is otherwise occupied, like right before he wakes up in the morning, snag his keys and unlock his car. Then:  Remove anything of value from the car. You don't want anything to be stolen because of your prank! Roll down one of the windows of his car so that it is completely inside the door and cannot be seen. Shatter your window carefully and quietly. Then use your gloves to spread the glass around the door of the rolled down window and a little bit inside the car to make it look realistic. To get the best response out of the prankee, you might want to agitate him by getting upset with him over his car being broken into. You might point out that at least he didn't have anything valuable in the car - an excellent tactic if you've removed something valuable from the car the night before when setting up your prank. With the window rolled down, the prankee's car will be vulnerable to actual theft. You'll either need to keep an eye on it so it isn't stolen, or time your prank so that the car is only left unattended for a few moments before your friend comes out and sees it.  You might arrange for your friend to drive you somewhere the morning of your prank so you know exactly when the both of you will be headed to the car. Don't perform this prank before the prankee leaves for work. Shattered glass can be dangerous, even if his car window isn't actually...

A caulking gun isn’t necessary for all caulking jobs. Use 5 ounce squeeze tubes when you have a small, indoor project. Remove the cap from the squeeze tube, then trim the end off the nozzle with scissors. For the most control over caulk flow, cut the nozzle at a 45-degree angle. Squeeze the bottle with steady pressure so your bead will look uniform and neat. Pressurized cans are usually about 7 ounces a piece. They are ideal when you need to create a uniform bead while you’re caulking overhead, or any other time you are caulking with only one hand. You should be able to obtain pressurized cans of caulk at any home improvement store. If you’ve never caulked before, it’s best to get a feel for how the caulk flows before applying it. Even if you have caulked before, it’s a good idea to get a feel for the specific caulk you’re using for this job. Practice by applying caulk on the inside corners of a cardboard box or on some other throw-away material.  Work on creating a steady flow and uniform bead. Try using a caulk finishing tool as you practice. These give inexperienced home handy workers a more professional result. Once you’ve got the hang of it, move on to the actual caulking task.

A caulking tube will come with a long-sealed nozzle at the front. Cut this nozzle at the desired point so that the caulk will come out at the desired width. If the crack is large, consider cutting the nozzle close to the tube. If the crack is small, cut the nozzle near the end to be precise. This choice is permanent, so think carefully about the thickness before you make the cut. However, it's better to cut the nozzle further away so it's thinner. If the caulk's too thin, you can always cut the nozzle shorter.

A cell is the fundamental element of a worksheet. This is where things are added and where things are seen. A cell address in a spreadsheet identifies the location of the cell in the spreadsheet. A cell address is a combination of the column letter and the row number of a cell, such as A2 or B16.etc. When identifying a cell by its address, the column letter is always listed first followed by the row number. The cell address of the example below is A5.    Click on the A1 cell (The cell at the very top left of the spreadsheet).     Notice the heavy black border around the A1 cell. The heavy black border indicates that A1 is the active cell. (A is at the top of the first column and 1 is on the first row. Both are highlighted. The highlighting also indicates that A1 is the active cell.)     Type Hello World and press Enter.    The active cell is now A2. (The words “Hello World” are in A1.)  When you type something in a cell and press Enter, what you typed is seen in that cell and the cell below becomes the next active cell.    Click on A1 again.

A central part of being a rebel is to develop views that go against popular, traditional views.  Musical rebels like Kurt Cobain and Tupac Shakur based much of their work and philosophies on fighting the establishment, defying expectations of their peers, and acting the opposite of others' expectations.  They did what they felt, said what they believed, and didn't care about what others thought. The United States and other free countries were founded on unpopular beliefs.  In the 1960s during the civil rights movement, interracial marriage was deemed illegal in certain states.  Segregated marriage was a popular belief and is now considered wrong.  The people who fought against it are now credited as being upholders of freedom and thinkers who were ahead of their time. Remember that "popular" is relative.  People at your school may believe partying and doing drugs is the popular social norm.  Defy this norm by being clean and proudly advertising that to others. Part of holding unpopular views is to question things that most people believe at face value.  The French scientist Georges Cuvier tried to convince people that African-Americans were not as smart as Caucasians because of their skull shape and size. His student, Friedrich Tiedemann, questioned this theory and showed that there was no scientific evidence to support this commonly accepted "truth."  Questioning your beliefs and the beliefs of others is difficult, but rewarding work.  Remember that accepting things at face value is common among people because it is the easiest.  When you question things, you will naturally stand out from the pack because the act of questioning tends to be rare. Questioning things isn't just a way to stand out, it is a way to arrive at the truth.  When you question things that turn out to be true, you will be held in high regard by your peers.  Most people in the 16th century believed that the Earth was flat. Pythagoras, the person who proved the opposite, is now revered in both science and mathematics. You don't have to be...

A charcoal chimney is a metal cylinder which is used to get charcoal burning before adding it to a grill or smoker. Visit your local hardware store or look for a chimney online. Add the charcoal to the chimney and light it. Let it sit for about 15 minutes.  The chimney will have its own instructions which you can follow to make sure the charcoal is lit properly. If you don’t want to invest in a charcoal chimney, it’s still important to heat the charcoal up in the smoker before you add the meat. On one side of the smoker, make a pile of unlit charcoal chunks. Slowly pour the hot charcoal on top of the unlit charcoal. It’s important to set the charcoal up on one side of the smoker and then put the meat on the other side.  Arranging your coals on one side and the meat on the other side of the smoker allows the meat to cook with indirect heat and smoke rather than with direct heat. Other options include setting piles of charcoal on both sides of the smoker and placing the meat in between them or making a circle of charcoal around the outside with meat in the middle. Wood chunks and chips are used to give meat greater flavor. Chunks work better because they smolder for longer. Oak, apple, cherry and hickory woods are often used in smokers. Place the wood in the chimney with the charcoal, but set it off to the side of the charcoal when you add it to the smoker. Other woods can be used, but stick to hardwoods. Softwoods create a sooty smoke and will ruin the flavor of your meat. Smokers have a water pan included, but grills generally do not. Use a foil baking pan if you don’t have a water pan. The water pan sits in the center section of the smoker, or on the grate opposite the meat in a grill.  Without the water pan, you won't get as much vapor, which helps to evenly cook your meat and vegetables. Cold water is helpful to offset the initially higher temperature of the grill. The water helps regulate the temperature down to where you want it for the best smoking. If your smoker has more than one grate, put the...

A chest X-ray is one of the most common X-ray procedures and is used to produce images of the heart, lungs, airways, blood vessels, and the bones of the spine and chest. It's normally used for diagnosing problems such as:  Shortness of breath, bad or persistent cough, and chest pain or injury. It can also be used for diagnosing or monitoring conditions such as pneumonia, heart failure, emphysema, lung cancer, and fluid or air around the lungs. If your doctor recommends that you should get a chest X-ray, no special preparation is required – just follow the steps mentioned above. A chest X-ray takes about 15 minutes and often requires two views of the chest to be taken. A bone X-ray is used to take images of the bones in your body to detect fractures, joint dislocations, injury, infection, and abnormal bone growths or changes. If you have pain from an injury, talk to your doctor about taking medication for pain before the X-ray, as the technologist may need to move your bones and joints for the procedure.  A bone X-ray can also be used to screen for bone cancer or other tumors, or to locate foreign objects in soft tissues around and/or in the bones. If your doctor orders a bone X-ray, no special preparation is required – just follow the steps mentioned above. Bone X-rays typically take about five to ten minutes to complete. When getting a bone X-ray, an image of the unaffected limb may be taken for comparison. An upper GI tract X-ray can be used to diagnose injuries or problems within the esophagus, stomach and small intestines. In addition, your doctor may order a KUB, which is a plain X-ray of your abdomen.  This type of procedure uses a special X-ray called fluoroscopy, which helps to visualize the internal organs in motion.  Be prepared to take a barium contrast solution prior to the exam. In some cases, you may also need to take baking soda crystals to further improve the X-ray images. An upper GI tract X-ray helps diagnose symptoms such as difficulty swallowing, chest and abdominal pain, acid reflux,...

A clam mold can be a fun, creative shape if you want to do something a little different than round or square-shaped cuts. You will need a few seashells, large enough to contain about half a cup of liquid soap. You can purchase seashells online or at a craft store. If you live near the ocean, you can collect seashells yourself. If you're using seashells you find, scrub thoroughly with antibacterial soap and rinse before use. Once your seashells are chosen and prepared, pour the liquid soap into each shell. Set the shell on a flat surface and, if necessary, hold the shell down to prevent spilling. Do not fill the seashell to the brim. Leave about half an inch of wiggle room at the top. Take some plastic wrap. Wrap each mold in a few layers of plastic wrap, making sure to use enough layers prevent outside air from getting in and to keep the soap from leaking. Once the molds are secured in plastic wrap, place the shells in a box. You can use any box you can find, like a shoebox. Cover the box with plastic wrap. This helps insulate the soap, quickening the drying process. Choose a safe place, away from children or animals, where the box is unlikely to be disturbed. Your soap recipe should indicate how long the soap should take to try. Usually, it takes around 24 to 28 hours. After 24 to 48 hours, remove each mold from the shells. Place the shells on a drying rack. They should be fully dry in 4 to 8 weeks.

A clean piece of furniture is infinitely easier to sell, and to price competitively. Get out any stains, polish up the edges, and consider cheaply staining or painting faded furniture. A new coat of paint or stain only costs $20, but it can make a used desk look brand new if you apply it well.  If there are any small repairs you can make, put them in now. It will disproportionately lower the sale price if you expect the buyer to make fixes. Test any old electronics to ensure that they still work. Head online and see some of the current styles. Check out new pieces to see how yours fits. For example, a big, plaid couch will sell for significantly less than a plain-colored one, at least until plaid comes back in style. Go on Craigslist and Ebay and check what other people are selling similar items for.  Furniture Valuation Guides, found easily online, will give you ranges of prices for most furniture. Look for items as similar as possible to yours. If you know the maker, model, or materials used, look up furniture with similar qualities. If you don't know how much the piece originally sold for, this is the best place to start. The easiest way to come up with a price is to slash 20% from the price you bought it for. This is considered industry standard, and is a reasonable guide for quality used furniture. Note, however, that this is just a baseline. You can tailor the price depending on a variety of other factors, as discussed below. Say, for example, you bought an dresser for $500 several years ago, and want to get rid of it:  The dresser is in good condition, and not very old. You decide that 80% is fair. Multiply $500 by 80%, or .8. (500 x .8 = 400)  $400 is your baseline asking price for the dresser. When do you subtract 30%, and when do you only subtract 20%? The biggest factor is the condition. If it is in almost the exact condition as when you bought it, then you can sell it for only 20% less than when you bought the furniture. But if it's got some scuffs, dings, wobble, or other issues, you may want to...

A cold sore is the same as a fever blister, but it is not the same as a canker sore. Canker sores are mouth ulcers that occur inside the mouth. While cold sores may on occasion develop inside the mouth, they are usually smaller than canker sores, and they start as blisters. Canker sores are not contagious, and they are not caused by a virus, so treatment differs from that for cold sores. Before you can actually see a cold sore, you will probably be able to feel a slight tingling or burning somewhere around your mouth where the cold sore will erupt. The earlier you can detect an outbreak, the quicker you can take action to hasten your recovery.  You may be able to feel a small bump or hardness in the skin in conjunction with the tingling sensation. Other early symptoms include, itching of the lips or skin around the mouth, sore throat, swollen glands, and pain when swallowing, and a fever. The herpes simplex virus is highly contagious, so avoid kissing or other mouth-to-body activities at any time during an outbreak. Also avoid sharing utensils, cups, or straws with other people, and wash dishes and utensils thoroughly with disinfectant soap. Gently washing the blisters with soap and water may also help to prevent the spread of the outbreak.  Wash your hands frequently, and try to avoid touching the sore. If you touch the cold sore, you can then spread it to other people or to other places on your own body, such as the eyes and genitals. As the name fever blisters suggests, cold sores are sometimes accompanied by a fever, particularly in younger children. If fever is present, use fever-reducing medications such as acetaminophen, and monitor the fever carefully. Fight the fever with lukewarm baths; cold compresses on the inner thighs, feet, arms, and neck; warm tea; popsicles; and adequate sleep. . Over-the-counter cold sore creams may help to ease the pain of cold sores, as may painkillers such as aspirin, acetaminophen, and ibuprofen.  It's important to note, since cold sores often affect young children, that...

A commercial bathroom or tile cleaner is often the easiest way to get rid of soap scum because it is formulated specifically to get rid of the stubborn residue. Apply a generous coat of the cleaner to the dirty tile according to the bottle’s instructions.  Tile or bathroom cleanser typically comes in two formulas: a liquid or foam spray. A liquid spray is effective on horizontal tile surfaces where you don’t have to worry about it dripping.The foam is often easier to use on tile walls because it stays in place without dripping off. Always read the instructions on a commercial tile or bathroom cleaner before using it on any tile. Before applying the cleaner all over the tile, test it in a small, inconspicuous area to ensure that it won’t damage the tile. Once you apply the tile cleaner to your tiled surfaces, you must allow it to sit for approximately 3 to 5 minutes. That gives the cleaner time to cut through the soap scum and residue so you can easily remove it. Some cleaners may need to be left on longer than 5 minutes. Consult the bottle’s instructions to determine the proper amount of time. After the cleaner has sat on the tile for several minutes, run a sponge under warm water. Use it to carefully wipe down the tile and remove the soap scum and cleaner residue.  Make sure to use a non-abrasive sponge or you may scratch the tile. You can substitute a damp cloth for the sponge if you prefer. If there are areas of the tile where the soap scum is particularly stubborn, you may need to use a soft scrub brush to remove the residue. Be careful not to scrub too hard, though, or you may scratch the tile. When you’ve wiped away all of the soap scum and cleanser residue with the sponge, fill a spray bottle with warm water. Spray the tile with the water to rinse the surface until it’s clean. If you don’t have a spray bottle, you can wet a cloth with warm water and use it to rinse the tile. To keep the tile from developing more soap scum or mildew, it’s important to dry it completely. Use a squeegee or towel to...

A common facet of 12-step programs, whether you choose to participate in one or not, is that you recognize periods of sobriety and reward yourself for them. Even if the reward means the opportunity to look at your sober self in the mirror and say, "You've been sober for a week," it's important to let yourself celebrate the achievements of sobriety.  Some addicts find it helpful to put all the money they used to set aside for dope and save it up to buy something nice for big sober milestones. Take a trip, or buy something nice for yourself. You deserve it. Temptations will happen. It will occur to you eventually that you'll want to score again, to use again, and to feel that feeling. Most relapses occur in the first 3-6 months of quitting heroin. While you might not be able to stop that old bird from landing in your mind, you don't have to let it build up a nest and stay. Some addicts find it helpful to visualize a "trash bin" in a corner of your mind where you can place those temptations, locking them away as soon as they surface.  When you get a temptation, picture the garbage can and picture your temptation as a piece of trash. Put it in the can. Screw the lid on it. Keep it out of sight. So you kicked dope. Now what? Boredom can quickly become one of the biggest challenges to a recovering addict. How you choose to fill all that time you used to spend high will be completely up to you, but you're likely to be more successful if you can find a way of productively and healthily reproducing a similar kind of "high." This might mean creating something, taking up challenging sports that'll leave you exhilarated, or even something as simple as going for long walks and thinking. Use your sobriety as an opportunity to create a new life. It's a blank page. Start filling it. . Your body isn't a slave to heroin. Exercise helps the body excrete all the junk inside, like a natural detox, regulating metabolism and creating natural endorphin highs. Find a regular kind of exercise that you enjoy and that you'll be able to...

A common home remedy for removing skin tags is to cover the skin tag in a coat of clear nail polish, as this is believed to dry out the skin tag, causing it to fall off.  Simply cover the skin tag in a coat of clear polish and allow to dry. Repeat this process 2 to 3 times a day until it shrinks and falls off.  You can speed the process up slightly by wiggling the tag every day. Crush a clove of garlic and soak a cotton ball in the garlic juices. Place the cotton ball on your skin tag and cover it with a bandage overnight. Remove the bandage in the morning. Apply another cotton ball the following night unless you develop irritation. Tea tree oil has been used to successfully treat many different skin conditions, skin tags among them. To use, soak a cotton ball in water then add a couple of drops of therapeutic grade tea tree essential oil.  Dab the skin tag with the tea-tree infused cotton ball. Repeat once or twice a day until the skin tag dries up and falls off. There are many over-the-counter creams on the market which claim to get rid of skin tags. Some people find them very effective, while others do not. Follow instructions on the label for how to use. Particular brands which are said to work well include Tag Away, Skinhale and Dermatend. The citric acid in lemon juice can lighten and dry out the skin, and has been cited as an effective remedy for skin tags. Simply squeeze a little fresh lemon juice into a container, dip a q-tip into it and dab onto the skin tag.  Alternatively, you can cut a slice of lemon and rub it directly onto the skin tag. Keep applying the lemon juice every day, taking care to avoid the surrounding skin, until the skin tag dries out and falls out. Applying vitamin E oil in combination with a band-aid is said to help in the removal of skin tags. The band-aid limits blood flow to the skin tag, while the vitamin E oil speeds up the healing.  To use, break open a vitamin E capsule and rub the contents onto the skin take. Cover tightly with a band-aid. Leave on for a day or two, then...

A common place to find this information is in your driver's manual which comes with the car.  You can ask your car care professional.  There should also be a button on your dashboard with a picture of a car, marked with the letter "I".  If your car does not have a VIC, use the following steps. Sit comfortably in the driver's seat, and make sure that your transmitter is close enough to the steering wheel and internal locks.  Pull on the internal handles of each door to make sure that they are closed tightly. When you put the key into the ignition, do not turn it all the way clockwise.  Instead, turn it to the position right before when the ignition would start. This is located in front of the driver's seat, behind the steering wheel.  Do this until the display board reads "Relearn Remote Key."  If your car does not do this, you may have your key in the wrong position.  You can always pull your key out and start again. You will hear a noise that sounds like a chime.  This means that your transmitter has been successfully synced.  If you do not hear this chime, that means that the sync is off.  You will have to repeat the previous steps in order to successfully sync your transmitter. Do this in rapid succession, otherwise your car will go out of sync.  If this happens, make sure that you begin the process over again, otherwise you will not successfully sync your transmitters. If you do not do this step right afterwards, it could throw the sync of the car off.  If you forget to take the key out, or take it out a while afterwards, it is best to repeat the previous steps over again.  Otherwise you could potentially have thrown off your transmitters, and not be able to work your Unlock/Lock buttons. Step out of your car and shut the driver's door. Step about 20 feet away and press the Unlock/Lock buttons separately.  If the locks seem to work, go back even further and test it again.  If the locks do not appear to work, it is best to restart the process for your own safety.  If you have tried and tried again, and...

A common side effect that interferes with intake of nutrition is nausea and vomiting.  Nausea may be minimized by selecting bland, soft foods, maintaining fluid intake to avoid dehydration, eating six to eight small meals a day, and using anti-nausea medications.  There are several anti-nausea medicines and the patient may have to try different ones to determine the one that works best for him/her.  Commonly used medications include:  Ondansetron (Zofran), 8 mg SL every 8 hours, prior to meals by mouth. Granisetron (Kytril), 2 mg once per day or 1 mg twice per day by mouth. Palonosetron (Aloxi) 0.25 mg over 30 seconds intravenously. Dosages listed are the most commonly prescribed and may not be suitable for all patients.  The patient’s physician should determine dosing. These are the common symptoms encountered after administration of chemotherapy drugs. These have significant effects on the lifestyle of the patient. A patient may diminish food intake fearing these symptoms.  To combat diarrhea, eat a low-fiber diet. Reduce intake of food containing high fiber such as coarse grains, vegetable and fruits. Eat food like apples, bananas and lentils which are low in fiber. And be sure to drink plenty of fluids. To combat constipation, eat a high-fiber diet. Enhance intake of food containing high amounts of fiber such as fresh fruits, coarse grains and vegetables. Dry mouth is the side effect of chemotherapy drugs. It is called xerostomia. This can have a significant effect on the eating pattern and diet of the patient. Make sure the patient maintains good oral care. Use half to a full teaspoon of baking soda mixed in water to wash out the mouth. Don’t use commercial mouth washes having alcohol; the alcohol will enhance drying of the mouth. Intake of some of chemotherapy drugs will alter the taste buds. This, obviously, will make the patient want to eat less. However, it's incredibly important that nutrition intake isn't diminished. To combat this:  Replace your metallic utensils with plastic utensils. Suck on...

A common symptom of a faulty idle control valve can be a high idle.  Start the engine and look at the tachometer on the dashboard.  Most vehicle’s engines will idle at our below one thousand RPMs.  If you are familiar with your engine’s normal idle, compare that to its current RPMs.  If the vehicle’s engine is idling well above 1,000 RPMs, it’s probably too high. Vacuum leaks can also cause a high idle. Aside from high idle issues, low idle and even sporadic stalling can both be attributed to a bad idle control valve.  Again, start the engine and compare how it is running at a stop to how it normally runs.   If the idle is low and inconsistent, it may be due to an issue with your idle control valve. Low idles could also be caused by vacuum leaks. If your engine is idling poorly, try to diagnose any possible vacuum leaks that may be causing it.    Visually inspect the vacuum lines in your engine bay for signs of damage such as cracks or overly worn areas.  Remove a vacuum line and connect it to a vacuum gauge to measure the level and consistency of the vacuum. You can also try spraying a soap and water mixture on the lines to look for bubbling at the point of a leak. The check engine light in your vehicle is designed to turn on if the Engine Control Unit (ECU) identifies an issues with how the engine is running.  Look at your dashboard; if the check engine light is on in conjunction with idle issues, it may be because the idle control valve is malfunctioning.  The check engine light looks like a simple drawing of an engine. A check engine light in conjunction with idle issues can be indicative of a faulty idle control valve.

A compass is a round instrument with all the cardinal directions printed on it. A rotating needle uses the Earth’s magnetic field to determine what direction the compass is facing. You can make your own rudimentary compass if you have a few items available. You will need:  A metal sewing needle and magnet A bowl or cup filled with water Pliers and scissors A cork (or just a leaf). Do this at least 12 times if you are using a weak magnet like a refrigerator magnet, or about five times if you have a stronger magnet. This will magnetize the needle. Then, use the pliers to push the needle through the cork disk. (If you don't have a cork, you can place the needle on a leaf.) The needle will be free to spin around like a compass needle, and will eventually align itself with the poles. If it was properly magnetized, it should tell you the north–south line. Note that unless you have a compass or other reference, you will not know if the needle is pointing north or south, just that it's pointing to one or the other. Many websites and books say that you can magnetize a metal needle by rubbing it with wool or silk, but that will only create static electricity, not magnetism.

A complicated hairstyle that requires a lot of pulling, combing, or the use of heat styling tools on your hair can cause damage. Instead, choose a style that doesn’t involve a lot of manipulation.  Braids, and  2-strand twists  are protective styles that keep allow your hair to breathe and don’t require combing or running your hands through your hair. A cotton pillowcase can lead to hair breakage, especially if you toss and turn a lot at night. To prevent breakage, use a silk or satin pillowcase. It’s also an option to use a silk hair covering at night. Brushing and combing your hair too much can lead to breakage. This breakage can increase even more when your hair is wet. Wait until your hair is completely dry to brush or comb it. If you can’t wait for your hair to dry, apply a detangling product and run a wide-tooth comb through small sections, starting at the ends of the hair and working toward the scalp. Even if you’re not trying to grow your hair out, the use of heat-styling can be very damaging to hair. Limit or completely avoid the use of heat-styling products. If you need to use them, apply a heat-protectant product to your hair beforehand.

A compression dry bag is a special kind of backpack ideal for camping and storing clothes. When you put the clothes inside and close it, the bag will remove as much air as possible from the interior of the bag, giving you more space to store. The bag will also protect your clothing from rain, so it's ideal if you are camping. Packing cubes are small plastic cubes with zips along the side that allow for efficient storage of your clothing. Use the rolling and folding techniques discussed earlier to get your clothing as small as possible. Then put them inside the cubes.  Treat the inside of your bag like a game of Tetris. You can stack the different sized cubes in many different ways, but they'll always protect the clothes. Packing cubes are great for unpacking and packing your bag again quickly, so they are ideal for long term travel. The most important equipment choice is what sort of backpack you are going to use. Different backpacks can serve many functions depending on your needs.  If you are going on a hiking trip, you will need a backpack that is waterproof so that your clothes will stay safe inside. If you are travelling for a long period of time, you will need a backpack that has many different compartments so that you can store your clothing as efficiently as possible. Travel backpacks are usually padded as well which can offer extra protection for the contents. If you're staying a short while at a friend's house and need a spare change of clothes, a normal backpack combined with the packing tips discussed earlier will suffice. Most backpacks will have outer pockets and zips to store smaller items in. If possible, put all your toiletries and liquids into these pockets away from your clothes. This means that if there's an accidental spillage your clothes won't be ruined.

A computed tomography scan (or CT scan) will allow doctors to have a better look at your abdomen and lungs. The CT scan works similar to an x-ray, only instead of taking 1 picture at a time, the CT scan takes many. This procedure takes several minutes, while you lie inside of a donut-shaped machine. You may be asked to drink a liquid called “oral contrast” prior to the scan so the doctor sees your intestines more clearly.  CT scans are totally painless, although some people may become anxious inside the machine. You may be given an IV with a contrast dye to better outline your cardiovascular system. An MRI can be used to discern the location, size, and shape of a tumor, as well as the type of tissue that is affected. An MRI is similar to a CT scan, but it can take anywhere from 15-90 minutes.  The MRI is painless, but lying still inside the machine for an extended period may cause some anxiety for some people. Your doctor may allow you to use headphones, a pillow and blanket, or other comforting objects during the scan. An ultrasound is a quick and painless procedure that does not involve radiation. Your skin will be lubricated with gel and then a small transducer will be moved over the surface of your body.  An ultrasound can tell your doctor is the lump is filled with a fluid (a benign cyst) or if it is solid (a tumor). An ultrasound is often performed prior to doing a biopsy. For this procedure, you will be injected with radioactive glucose. This substance will show doctors where cancer cells are located in your body. Also, if the cancer has spread, the results of the positron emission tomography will let doctors see where the sarcoma has moved to.  Other than a small needle prick, this procedure is not painful. This is often done in conjunction with a CT scan. A core needle biopsy involves the insertion of a needle that will draw out a tiny bit of the affected tissue. This procedure is considered “moderately invasive,” and it will cause a little bit of pain. Your doctor will give you a local anesthetic to...

A consistent bathroom schedule is a key component of proper house training. It will teach your dog to urinate outside at certain times, such as after waking up, after a meal, and about 20 minutes before going to bed. This is especially important for puppies, since they have weak bladder muscles and are still learning where they should urinate. Having a specific outdoor bathroom spot will teach your dog to urinate outside, not inside. If you have a backyard, put your dog on a leash and take it to an area of the yard that’s protected from weather elements (rain, wind). Allow your dog to pick the exact bathroom spot within this area.  Give your dog praise when it urinates in this area, or just shows interest in it. This will not be as important if your dog already has a specific bathroom spot, or you do not have a backyard. Playing with your dog can distract it from urinating completely. This is common in puppies, since they can become easily distracted. When you take your dog out, let it do its business without you playing with it. Consider just standing still until your dog finishes urinating. Unless your dog’s bladder is full, your dog may not urinate completely as soon as it gets outside. Your dog may need some time before its bladder muscles relax enough for urination. Also, if you have a puppy, it may need a few minutes to get focused on going to the bathroom. Don’t be surprised if your dog urinates several times. It may need to make several ‘pit stops’ to urinate completely. Give your dog verbal praise, and maybe a treat, when it finishes urinating. This will reinforce the idea that urinating outside is the right thing to do. If you want to give your dog treats, keep them hidden until after it finishes urinating. If your dog sees the treats, it may get distracted from going to the bathroom. If you’re in a rush, you may want to go back inside as soon as your dog finishes urinating. However, to your dog, this can signal the end of ‘fun time’ outside. It may not fully urinate to prolong the fun time, then...

A convenient time to practice calling your cat is around feeding time. Your cat will likely already be hungry, which may make the training process easier and faster. In addition, she will already be used to going to the kitchen (or wherever you keep her food bowl), so you will not be calling her to a room that is unfamiliar to her when you begin training her.  Another benefit to calling her at her regular feeding time is that she will already know what time to get her food. This will make the initial training easier because you will not be doing something that is completely unfamiliar to her. If you choose to reward with her extra play, then you can practice calling her when it's getting close to her scheduled playtime.  If the kitchen and her play areas have a lot of distractions, consider calling your cat in a quiet room that doesn't have any distractions that could keep her from coming to you. When you are in the room where you want her to come to you, say your verbal cue in a high-pitched voice. If you are calling her when it's time for her to eat, make sure that you say the verbal cue  before  you open a can of food or rip open a bag of food. You want to ensure that your cat comes because she heard your verbal cue, not because of the noises of food preparation.  Reward her immediately when she comes to you, whether that is with the tasty treat or extra playtime. Extra positive reinforcement through petting and verbal praise will also be helpful. Even if you are calling her at mealtime, it is still important to give her the tasty treat as a reward, rather than just feeding her the regular food. If you are calling her around playtime, say the verbal cue without shaking a toy that makes noise. It may take her a week or so before she starts to consistently come to you when you call her. Once your cat consistently comes to her play or feeding areas when you call her, take the difficulty up a notch. For example, if someone else lives with you, you can practice calling her back and forth between you and other...

A custom-made mouthguard is best because it will fit your mouth better than other options. However, it's the most expensive option.  These guards typically cost $200-$500 USD to make. Check to see if your dental insurance will cover part of the cost. Harder materials, like acrylic, cost more than softer materials. You'll need harder materials if you grind your teeth heavily. With this option, you buy an at-home kit and make an impression of your teeth. Then you mail the impression to a manufacturer, who will make a guard for you and mail it back. These guards tend to cost $55-$250 USD. To use this mouth guard, you boil the guard first for a set period of time (check the box). Then, once it cools a little, you place it in your mouth and bite down. The guard forms around your teeth to make a pseudo-custom night guard. These guards tend to run $15-$25 USD. They are bulkier than the more customizable options, so they may be less comfortable. These guards are what boxers and other sports players use to protect their teeth. However, they come pre-formed, so they are usually boxy and uncomfortable. Still, if you need a cheap solution, this may be the one for you.  These guards can even make breathing difficult. They run about $10-$15 USD. In some cases, TMJ is caused by teeth grinding. Wearing a mouth guard can help prevent you from developing symptoms. Doctors aren't exactly sure why this helps to relieve pain, as you still grind into the guard. However, it does seem to provide relief for many people. Every night, spend a few minutes consciously relaxing your jaw, tongue, and mouth. To relax your jaw, let your mouth hang open or bring the tip of your tongue to the top of your mouth. Massaging your jaw and face muscles can also help. If you do this, you may find that you are not clenching your teeth as much when you sleep.

A cutting is a root, leaf, shoot, or bud that gets trimmed off an established plant to propagate a new plant of the same kind. To do this, you will need an established wisteria plant to take the cutting from. If you don’t have an established plant to work with, ask friends or neighbors if they have a wisteria you can use. For wisteria, you want to cut off a new shoot that still has soft green wood and that hasn’t yet developed bark. Make sure the shoot has a few sets of leaves on it (a couple on the top and a couple on the bottom).  With a pair of sharp scissors or gardening snips, cut the shoot near the base. Make sure the cutting you take is about six inches long. You will have the highest chances of success if you do this at the end of spring or beginning of summer. Snip off any leaves that are at the bottom of the cutting, leaving ones at the top intact. Then, snip off the bottom of the cutting at a 45-degree angle so there's only one-half inch (127 mm) of stem below the bottom leaf node that you cut. This will give the new roots somewhere to grow from and allow them to establish. For the best results, dip the end of the cutting into a rooting hormone before planting it. Place some rocks in the bottom of a small gardening pot to help with drainage. Fill the pot with potting soil that’s specifically designed for good drainage—look for a soil with a high perlite or coarse sand concentration. Add some water so the soil is moist. Make a two-inch (5 cm) deep hole in the soil with your finger and place the cutting in so the leaves are sticking up. Replace the soil and cover the bottom of the cutting where the roots will grow. This will keep the soil moist and warm, and this will help the wisteria to take root. You can either wrap the entire pot in a plastic bag, or cover the top with a plastic bag or plastic wrap. Place the pot in an area where the plant will receive lots of indirect sunlight. When the soil becomes dry to the touch, add water so it’s always moist. After about four to eight weeks, the cutting...

A day or 2 before your party, pick up a whole, seedless watermelon and a bottle of vodka with a slender neck. Set the watermelon on a serving tray or in a bowl so that it sits completely still. Open the bottle and use the cap to trace a circle onto the top side of the watermelon using a pen.  It’s important to make sure your watermelon sits still without rolling over. If it’s not stable, you’ll end up with a sloshy, pink mess in your refrigerator! Cut a thin slice from the rind at the base of the watermelon, if necessary, so that it doesn’t rock back and forth or spin around. But just don’t cut deep into the edible flesh or else the watermelon might leak.  It may take between 12 and 24 hours to fully infuse the watermelon, so be sure to plan ahead. This novelty drink is best served chilled, so don’t let it sit out for very long. Have someone hold a cup over the hole in the watermelon rind. Then tip the whole watermelon over to pour out the drink. Do this carefully, but have fun making a spectacle of your novelty cocktail and its dispenser!  If you'd like, pop the overturned vodka bottle into the hole for a fun display. Just keep the cap on so you don’t overfill the watermelon and make a mess.  You won’t be able to slice and serve watermelon chunks; the result of this process will be a boozy fruit juice. Avoid putting a tap into the hole; fruit chunks will clog it up.
