Remember: nothing is easier if you don't talk about it. Your close friends should be your trusted advisers when it comes to dealing with crushes. Even if you don't take their advice, it'll feel great to get this major source of emotional stress off of your chest, so speak up! Another side benefit is that talking to your friends about your crush can force you to actually do something about it. Once your friends know about it, they'll subtly push you to take action. This can be a good thing if you'd lack confidence normally. To deal with a crush, you must crawl before you can walk. Try to limit your one-on-one time with your crush initially. Instead, try to hang out in groups. It's much easier to come across as charming when you have your friends around to do some of the "work" in the conversation for you. Being in the company of people you already know will also make you feel more at ease, so conversation will come more naturally. Gradually move on to one-on-one hangout sessions. Eventually, if you want your crush to develop into something more, you'll need to spend some alone time with that person. Try not to think of your crush as "perfect" or unattainable — s/he is not. Your crush has flaws, fears, and things s/he is bad at. In other words, your crush is a human being just like you. Letting yourself believe that your crush is somehow "better" than other people will only make it harder to keep your cool when you're together. If you find yourself freaking out when you're around your crush, think back to some time that you remember her/him doing something wrong. This can be almost anything, like getting a fact wrong, making a bad play during a sports game, or accidentally doing something embarrassing. This is a good way to remind yourself that your crush is far from perfect, even if it may not always seem like it. Staying calm about your crush isn't all about how you manage your thoughts and behavior. It's also about how you think about yourself. Remember that you are the most important one in your...

Remembering measurement equivalents is a great way to speed up cooking time in the kitchen. The most simple conversion is tablespoons to teaspoons. If you are missing a tablespoon, simply measure out three level teaspoons instead. A tablespoon is equivalent to 1/16 of a cup, which will allow you to easily measure out that amount without a measuring spoon. Given this small portion, it is easiest to measure out 1/16 in a large, clearly-marked measuring cup. Otherwise, it would be best to approximate one tablespoon using half of an 1/8 cup, the smallest measuring cup in a set. For fast conversions, remember that 15 ml of a liquid is the equivalent of 1 tablespoon. This means that there will be between 16 and 17 tablespoons in a common 250 ml serving of liquids, which equals 1 cup. Be sure that all measurements are level to ensure even conversions. to measure a tablespoon of liquid. Some bottles will purposefully hold a single tablespoon, making it easy to portion out that amount while cooking or baking. This may apply to oil, flavor extracts, and other similar ingredients. Measure how much your bottle caps hold when you first purchase a new cooking ingredient to have the conversions in mind in the future.

Remove all clothing below your waist and look in the mirror. Place two fingers over the area you think is affected. Force yourself to cough and note if you felt or saw a bulge coming out of that area. You can also hold your breath and bear down (contract your abdomen as you were going to the bathroom). Use your finger to note if a bulge is coming out. Hernias can be aggravated by doing things that put pressure on the abdomen. You should also look for:  A bulge in your groin area: If so, you may have a direct or indirect hernia. You will see swelling in the lower part of your abdomen that extends down toward or even into your scrotum. A bulge on the thigh below your groin: This is most likely a femoral hernia. One testicle that's larger than the other or more swollen: This may be from an indirect hernia. Burning, aching, or heavy pain in your groin: These can indicate a hernia because the intestine can become caught and squeezed, leading to pain. Seek emergency treatment if this occurs. If the swelling is an oval shape that is not in your scrotum area, then it is probably a direct hernia rather than an inguinal hernia. Feel if the hernia is reducible, or can be pushed back into place. Lay down to let gravity relieve the tension of the hernia back in place. Slowly apply pressure to the bulge using your index finger and try to push the contents back up. Do not force it, which could rupture the herniated products or the opening. If you can't reduce the hernia, see a healthcare professional immediately.  Let your doctor know if you've been or felt like vomiting in addition to not being able to push the bulge back in. This can mean there's a complication known as strangulation. You need to see a doctor immediately if you have abdominal pain or a fever. Strangulation of the intestine and blood vessels supplying it can deprive the intestine of proper nutrients. This will kill the tissue and keep it from functioning. You'll need surgery to remove the dead tissue so that digested products can pass through. You should...

Remove all large appliances, furniture, or other obstacles from the linoleum surface. Removal of smaller, easy-to-handle strips will be much easier than trying to handle the entire sheet of linoleum at once. In order to get the lino topper soft and pliable, consider heating one section at a time with a heat gun. This will make the removal of the topper much easier. What if you don't have a heat gun? A hair dryer may work, but chances are that the hair gun doesn't get hot enough to do the job efficiently. Try for yourself and see whether the hottest setting on the hair gun makes the removal of the topper any easier. Use a 5 in 1 tool or hand scraper to lift the edges of each section and then tear the remainder. The tough outer skin should come off easily, but if the linoleum was fully bonded when installed, you may have large sections of soft backing and adhesive that will need additional attention. Alternately, automate the process by using a vinyl floor craping machine with a rigid scraper blade. Rub a bit of petroleum jelly on the scraper blade to keep it from getting gunked up. Then, begin by sliding the automatic scraper underneath a pre-cut seam and lifting the linoleum up with your free hand. Follow the pre-cut seams to remove the linoleum topper. Depending on the job, this process is sometimes quicker than removing the topper by hand. You can rent these machines from a tool rental company.

Remove all old drywall, nails, screws and anything else that will prevent the new drywall sheets from laying flat on the studs. Check that loose blocking, moisture damage, termites, or other problems will not make installation a problem. Don't be surprised to find steel studs instead of wood. Steel studs are generally a good thing since steel provides added strength, and is termite-proof and fire-retardant. When using steel studs, the only difference is that you'll have to use drywall screws instead of nails when hanging the drywall.

Remove any drawers or shelf slots first, if necessary. Use a screwdriver to loosen and take off any hardware from the furniture, such as hinges and knobs. Take off the back of the furniture if you plan to paint the insides. Set the hardware aside in a box or container for safekeeping. Rub the sandpaper in a circular motion along the surface of the furniture. Use the sandpaper on every part of the furniture you plan to paint. Keep sanding until the furniture's varnish is visibly roughened all over. Move the medium sandpaper in the direction that the wood grain moves in. Continue sanding until the furniture looks smooth. Afterwards, use a wet rag to wipe down the furniture and wait around an hour for it to dry. You can purchase wood filler online or from your local home improvement store. It typically comes in putty form. Shape it so it fills and covers the holes in the wood. Depending on the depth of the hole, wait between 2 and 8 hours (for large holes) or 15 minutes (for small holes) before sanding the area and continuing work.

Remove any small objects, stickers or larger pieces of debris that can easily be removed by hand. If any debris seems stuck, grab a pair of tweezers to remove it. Other tools to help remove debris include scissors, nail clippers, bottle cutters and screwdrivers. Cut a strip of duct tape so that it can fit inside the wheel. Pat the piece of duct tape into the wheel so that the sticky tape can trap the small pieces of dirt. Once the dirt has attached to the piece of tape, remove the tape from the wheel and discard it. Use a vacuum to capture any small pieces of dirt or debris that could not be picked up with tape. Ensure you are using a smaller vacuum attachment for easier access.

Remove any surface dirt from the car's exterior by washing it using a non-drying soap and water. Dry it clean with soft cotton towels or by allowing it to air dry. By removing as much dirt from the surface as possible, you allow the chemicals in the pre-wax cleaner to get directly to the layer of wax instead of having to contend with layers of grime and gunk first. Liquid pre-wax cleaners can be divided into two categories: spray on wax removers and non-abrasive polishes. Strictly speaking, a spray on wax remover is a more legitimate pre-wax cleaner.  Spray on wax removers strip the wax off a car but do not do much else. They do not clean deep and do not remove contaminants that lurk below the surface. However, because they do not cleanse deeply, they make a good choice for someone who likes to frequently strip old wax and apply new wax. Non-abrasive polishes cleanse a little more deeply. They are used for less frequent strippings and clean dirt that settles beneath the surface of the paint. Their primary purpose is not to remove wax, but that is a secondary effect. Apply the cleaner liberally, but make sure that you only get it on the paint of the car and not the plastic or rubber trim. If allowed to soak into plastic or rubber, wax removers have the tendency to discolor. Use a soft terry cloth to wipe the wax remover along the paint using side to side and top to bottom motions. Spread the wax remover using long, even strokes. If your first application of wax remover did not remove all the wax, you may apply another coating. Avoid repeating this too often, however, since too many applications on unprotected paint can gradually start to damage the point. Since plastic and rubber can become discolored when you use wax removers, a milder all-purpose car exterior cleanser is a better option. Apply the cleaner directly onto a clean terry cloth rag. Apply light, even pressure along the trim to remove as much of the old wax as possible.

Remove as much of the plant as possible by cutting back its vegetation until only the stump remains. This will make it easier for the herbicide to work on the roots, which are the most important part to kill.  It’s best to begin this process in the spring or summer, when the plant is still growing and not as hardy. If the yucca is particularly large, it might be beneficial to use a saw to cut it down at the stump. If using shears, start by removing the top and working your way down to the stump, cutting off large portions at a time. Controlling yucca with herbicide requires proper timing and application. Spring, early summer, and fall are the best times to apply herbicide because herbicides are most effective when used within a certain temperature range. Read the label of the product you purchase to decide when to spray. The recommended herbicide is Remedy herbicide, which is specifically formulated for yucca and other hardy plants, and you can find it at most hardware stores. Pour the herbicide in first and then add the diesel or vegetable oil.  Make sure to wear protective clothing when handling chemicals, such as long sleeves and pants, chemical resistant gloves, and eye protection. You can also buy pre-prepared mixtures of Remedy and diesel or vegetable oil, but they are more expensive and just as effective. If your sprayer isn’t large enough to hold the volume of the mixture, you can make the mixture in a 256 ounces (7,300 g) bucket. Use a funnel placed in the opening of the sprayer container to carefully pour the mixture into your sprayer. Be careful and pour slowly to avoid splashing or spilling the mixture. If all of the mixture doesn’t fit into the sprayer, you can store the excess in the bucket for up to a week. Make sure you cover it with a lid, towel, or piece of cardboard to prevent contaminants from getting into the herbicide. If your nozzle isn’t already attached, slip the 5500-X1 nozzle onto the tip of the sprayer. This nozzle will cause the mixture to be applied in a cone shape. Cone-shaped...

Remove dust or other particles with a moist rag. Clean the surface with mineral spirits and a rag to remove dirt and other grime. Make sure to go over the entire surface of the metal. Then, you can allow the metal to air dry or quickly go over it with a cloth. The rust removal process may have removed the loose paint, but if not, you can use a putty knife, scraper, or wire brush to remove it. Simply scrape the paint until it comes completely off. Be sure to wear gloves, goggles, and a face mask as you do this. It's especially important to wear protection if you're dealing with old paint that contains lead, as this can be dangerous to inhale.

Remove the baking sheet from the oven and set it out on a heat-safe surface at room temperature. The strawberries will continue to dry as their excess moisture evaporates. Avoid handling them or the baking sheet in the meantime, as they'll both be quite hot.  Once the strawberries have cooled to the touch, split one in half to test whether they're dry enough. They should be firm and gummy inside, without any visible wetness. If the strawberries look like they need to dehydrate a little longer, throw them back in the oven for 30 minutes at a time until their consistency is just right. The bite-sized morsels are perfect for munching on throughout the day. Pair them with a serving of mixed nuts, or simply grab a handful and enjoy them on their own. For added flavor, set out some Nutella or fresh-ground nut butter for dipping. Try using dried strawberries as a nutritious alternative to candy and similar junk foods. Not only are they low in calories, they’re also very addictive and tasty, so all those extra sweeteners and preservatives won’t be missed. Stir the pieces into your morning oatmeal, or add them to a cup of Greek yogurt for an indulgent post-workout treat. You could also dice them up and bake them into homemade granola bars. The possibilities are practically endless! Incorporate dried strawberries into an acai bowl for a delightfully fruity finish. Dried strawberries can inject a bit of tartness into cakes, pies, scones, and other confections. Since most of the moisture has been cooked out of them, they won’t leave your desserts watery the way fresh fruit sometimes does. They’ll also retain their nice chewy texture rather than becoming soggy and falling apart.  Since strawberries have a tendency to shrink, you’ll need to use about 1½ times the prescribed amount if you decide to substitute them in recipes calling for fresh berries. Dried strawberry slivers also make an excellent garnish, especially for rich offerings like chocolate mousse or warm shortbread straight out of the oven.

Remove the kangaroo steak from your freezer or, if you marinated it, your refrigerator. Then, set your steak on a flat surface and let it warm up to room temperature. Before you start grilling, place your kangaroo steak in a small bowl and cover it with olive oil. Then, let the steak soak for 15 to 30 minutes or, if your meat is particularly dry, up to 2 hours. Do this even if you marinated your steak to make sure the meat is as moist and juicy as possible. If you’re using an electric grill, set the heat to around 400 °F (204 °C) or turn your temperature dial to the second hottest setting available. If you’re using a traditional grill, build your flame in a spot where you can put the steak directly on top of it. Grilling your steak at such a high temperature allows it to cook thoroughly without losing its juiciness. If you did not pre-season or marinate your meat, consider adding some additional ingredients to it right now. Make sure to cover every side of your steak.  To bring out the steak’s natural flavors, sprinkle on some salt and pepper. For something more complex, throw dashes of crushed garlic, paprika, oregano, or similar ingredients into the mix. Grab your steak with a pair of tongs and place it on your grill. Then, let it cook for between 2 and 3 minutes. Kangaroo meat cooks quickly and burns incredibly easily, so keep your eyes on it at all times while it’s on the grill.  If you’re using a traditional grill, make sure to set the steak directly over the fire. Your steak may take a bit more or less time to cook depending on how large it is. Once you’ve finished cooking the first side of your steak, flip it over using your tongs and grill the other side. To make sure the meat cooks evenly, try to grill your steak for the same amount of time on each side. To see if your steak is done, press down in the center of the cut using your tongs. If the meat is fairly firm and only gives a little bit when you touch it, take it off the grill immediately. After removing your steak from the grill, place it on a...

Remove the kite from the packaging and find the three rods that come with the kite. There will be two identical shaped rods and one shorter rod. The shorter rod will be stuck horizontally across the kite into the two rod fittings at the top tip of the kite. This short rod is going to keep the kite spread open near the top. Be sure to keep the kite strings (bridle) out of the way.  At the base of the kite, insert one of the longer rods through the rubber fitting near the center of the kite. Stick the other end of the rod into the rubber fitting on the corresponding side edge of the kite. To match the completed side, insert the other long rod into the center rubber fitting. Then stick the corresponding end of the rod into the other rubber fitting on the side of the kite. The standoffs are the stick like items attached to the end edge of the kite. Insert the standoffs into the standoff fittings that are connected on the two lower rods. Adjust the standoff fittings on the spreader rods so they are even with the standoff attachments on the actual kite. Your kite should look completely symmetrical on both sides. Look over your kite to make sure the rods and standoffs are secured and evenly spread out on both sides of the kite. Hold up the kite strings to check and see if they are equal in length and balanced as you hold them. If there are any areas of your kite that are lopsided and disproportionate, it will greatly hinder the way your kite flies.

Remove the lid from the top of your kettle and hold it under a flowing faucet for a few seconds. If you want to speed things along, use hot water and let the tap run for a few moments before filling the kettle so that you’re starting with water that’s already warm. Boiling water in a kettle that’s less than half full can be bad for it. If it overheats, it could burn, warp, or even melt. Using a setting that’s hot (but not too hot) will help bring your water to a boil in less time without placing undue stress on your kettle. If your stove has burners of different sizes, select one of the larger ones. That way, the heat will be spread out evenly over a greater area. If you’re timing your water with other food or beverage items, it’s okay to use a slightly lower heat setting (around medium). Keep in mind, however, that it may not ever boil if the temperature is too low. Set the kettle directly in the center of the preheated burner. From here, all you have to do is sit back and let the stove take care of the rest!  Be sure to put the lid back on the kettle. Otherwise, it will take longer to heat up. If you’re using a gas cooktop, adjust the flames until they’re concentrated under the bottom of the kettle rather than letting them overlap the sides. If they climb too high, they could damage or discolor to the handle or lid. Water boils at 195–220 °F (91–104 °C). The amount of time it takes your kettle to reach this temperature may vary slightly, depending on how full it is. Afterwards, it will be extremely hot. Avoid touching any part except the handle. It’s hard to predict exactly how long a certain amount of water will take to boil, so keep a close eye on the kettle the entire time it’s on the stove. Whistling kettles are fitted with a small device that emits a high-pitched sound when steam escapes from the spout.

Remove the mouthpiece and battery portions of your vaporizer. Take off the top and bottom of the tank and discard any remaining e-juice. Continue to take apart the vape tank and the pieces attached to it, taking care to remember where each piece goes.  Take the tank assembly apart as much as possible so you’ll be able to clean each piece individually. Draw a diagram if you think it may be helpful during reassembly. Note that different devices will have different specific assemblies. Hold the tank itself under a faucet running warm water for 20 seconds or so. Adjust the water to be as warm as possible without being too hot to touch. This will help rinse away residual e-juice.  Use a faucet that provides a moderately powerful stream. If you clean your tank regularly and prevent e-juice from forming deposits within the tank, warm water will usually be enough to clean your tank. Twist a small sheet of paper towel or small microfiber cloth at the corner and fit it into one end of the tank. Twist the material and pull it back and forth through the tank to wipe residual water away. Hold the pieces you've removed from the vape tank in a bowl of warm water. This will help you keep track of each piece, and a short soak will assist in cleaning. Use a small microfiber cloth or clean toothbrush to wash each part of your tank assembly, especially those that have fine features such as threading. No matter how well you attempt to dry the tank and other components, a bit of water is likely to remain. For this reason, allow everything to dry for at least ten minutes before reassembling and refilling. Simply allow the tank and other pieces to air dry. Do not dry your tank with heat or direct sunlight, as these risk weakening or damaging some pieces.

Remove the prepared needle from its sterile resting place and carefully insert the tip into the vein at the injection site. Insert the needle so that the medication will be injected in the same direction as the blood flows. Since veins carry blood to the heart, inject the medication so that it also flows to the heart. Make sure that the syringe’s bevel is facing up when you do this. If you have any doubt or question about the proper placement of the needle, check with a qualified doctor or nurse before injecting into a vein. Carefully pull the plunger back by a small amount and watch the syringe to see if blood comes into it when you do this. If there is no blood, you are not in the vein and you will need to remove the needle and try again. If you draw dark red blood, you have successfully hit a vein and can proceed with the rest of the process. If the blood comes out with notable pressure and appears bright red and foamy, you have inserted the needle into an artery. Immediately pull the needle out and apply direct pressure to the site for at least 5 minutes to stop the bleeding. Be especially cautious if you've hit the brachial artery in your inner elbow because excess blood outside the vessel can damage your hand function. Try again with a new needle once the bleeding has stopped. If you applied a tourniquet before inserting the needle, take the tourniquet off at this time. Injecting with a tourniquet still in place may cause the vein to collapse. If the person has also been squeezing their hand into a fist, instruct them to stop at this point. It’s important to inject slowly to avoid putting too much pressure on the vein. Push the plunger with slow, steady pressure until all of the medication has been delivered. After delivering the medication, remove the needle slowly and immediately apply pressure to the injection site. Press a piece of gauze or a cotton ball over the injection site for 30 to 60 seconds to stop the bleeding. If bleeding is excessive and does not stop, call for emergency medical care....

Remove the tops of both boxes, and place the small one inside the larger one. Make sure there is at least a gap of 1 inch (2.5 cm) between the boxes. Glue the smaller cardboard box into place by squeezing glue onto the bottom and then pressing the smaller box firmly into the larger box. Tear the newspaper or fabric into strips, crumple them, and stuff them into the gap between the two boxes. Make sure to entirely fill the gap so there is no empty space. The paper or fabric will act as insulation, which keeps the heat trapped inside the oven. Cut pieces of black construction paper that are the dimensions of the walls and bottom of your cardboard box. Use glue to paste them in. Black absorbs heat very easily, so it will keep your oven toasty. The narrow side of the trapezoid should be the same width as one side of your large box. This is the side you will attach to the box. The wide edge of the trapezoid should be 2 inches (5.1 cm) wider than the small edge. Use a utility knife to cut the cardboard. Place your cardboard on a scratch-proof surface, like the garage floor to cut it. Always cut in the direction away from your body, to avoid accidentally cutting yourself. You can use aluminium foil, mylar, a mirror, a metallic auto-shade, or another reflective surface. This will reflect the sun’s rays into the solar oven and heat up your food. Tape the foil or other material securely to the cardboard using duct tape or cement glue. Now that the cardboard is covered in foil it can act as a reflector. If you're using aluminium foil, smooth it out so that it has as few wrinkles as possible. Use duct tape to securely tape the each reflector to each side of the big outer box. Don’t worry that they flop over. You will prop them up. You can buy thin, sturdy metal rods at a hardware store. Stick the rods into the ground underneath the reflectors. Prop the reflectors on the rods, and glue them into place. If you’re operating your solar oven on a windy day, take extra care that the rods don’t blow over by sticking them more...

Remove the wristwatch from your arm or storage. If you wind a watch while it is on the arm, with the watch tight against the skin, the winding motion may not be effective.  Winding a watch while attached to your arm places strain on the mechanics in the watch because of the angle on your arm and the stem. Locate the stem, which will be pulled out to wind the watch. The stem is a small  dial on the side of the watch. Reverse the position, if you are left-handed. The stem may have several settings, including settings for time, calendar, alarm, or time zone. The settings are located at little "clicks" as you pull the stem out or push it in. Use trial and error to feel the clicks and identify the winding position. Use your thumb and index finger to carefully pull out the watch stem by the stem's top or "crown." This can be difficult because you do not want to over-wind the mechanism. You should wind the watch clockwise until you feel resistance. Be conservative and don’t keep turning once you feel resistance. You can damage the watch if you continue to wind the stem past resistance. In time, you will develop a feel for the resistance.  If the watch runs down sooner than you like, you know you did not quite hit the maximum tension. Depending on the size of the watch, 20 to 40 forward turns should lead to resistance; over-winding will strain or break the mechanism. Press the crown to return stem to its place. Be careful to put the watch’s components back exactly as you started. Never shove or force parts when handling the stem and crown of a watch.

Remove your (now roughly room temperature) meat from the marinade and use a paper towel to blot your meat so that it is somewhat dry. Paint the bars of the grill lightly with a little olive or canola oil, then gently lay your meat down. You should immediately hear a sizzling sound — if you don't, your grill probably isn't hot enough. Let your meat cook with the grill uncovered. Resist the urge to turn the meat frequently — doing this can dry the meat out. The exact amount of time each side of your meat will take to cook can vary greatly based both on the level of "done"-ness you're looking for and on the thickness of your meat. In general, thicker cuts will require a few more minutes per side, as will (obviously) more well-done dishes. Below are some general guidelines for how long to spend cooking your meat per side:  For rare: 2 minutes for a 1/2 inch (1.27 centimeter) steak, 2-3 minutes for a 3/4 inch (1.9 centimeter) steak, 3-4 minutes for a 1 inch (2.54 centimeter) steak. For medium: 3-4 minutes for a 1/2 inch steak, 4-5 minutes for a 3/4 inch steak, 5-6 minutes for a 1 inch steak. For well-done: 5-6 minutes for a 1/2 inch steak, 6-7 minutes for a 3/4 inch steak, 8-9 minutes for a 1 inch steak. If you divided your grill into a hot section and a cooler section (as directed above), once your meat starts to approach done-ness, if you like, you can transfer it to the cooler section. Leave it here for several more minutes with the grill cover closed. Cooking the meat for a longer period of time over lower heat helps get it as tender as possible — this is why exceptionally tough cuts of beef like brisket are sometimes cooked at low heat all day. If you didn't have time to apply a marinade before cooking, you still have a chance to give your meat some extra flavor during the cooking process. Using a grill brush and a small bowl of your favorite sauce, paint the top side of the meat generously, then repeat after you flip it. Give each side another application of sauce about thirty seconds before you plan to...

Remove your chicken from the package and pat it down with paper towels. Rub a little butter or olive oil onto the chicken to add moisture and flavor. If you're using any seasoning, sprinkle it on both sides of the chicken now. For example, you could add something like garlic and dried basil or a cajun seasoning mix. It depends on what flavor you're going for. Lining with foil will make for easy cleanup. Place the chicken in a baking dish. If you're cooking more than one chicken breast, keep them slightly apart. You do not want them to touch. You can also add something like lemon slices or wedges to add extra flavoring to your chicken. If using skinless chicken, cover the baking dish with parchment paper. Take one sheet of parchment paper and cover one side with butter. Lay it on top of the chicken. Then, tuck the edges of the parchment paper underneath the breast to keep the chicken fully covered. The parchment will act almost like the chicken skin helping it to remain moist and keeping it from drying out.

Removing carpet in an RV is time-consuming because of the many staples you’ll have to pry up. Grip each staple with your pliers, then rock the pliers back and forth until the staple comes free. Some people prefer to use a hammer and mallet for removing staples. Hook the claw of the hammer under the staple, then strike the hammer with the mallet to loosen the staple. Check the plywood subfloor for dark spots, soft areas, or cracks. If you notice any damage, use a skill saw to carefully cut outside of the area you need to remove. Repair the damaged area by nailing new marine plywood into the joists beneath the subfloor.  Marine plywood is made to withstand temperature fluctuations as well as moisture, making it ideal for a travelling vehicle. Always wear safety goggles and a face mask when working with a skill saw. Many carpeting stores have a collection of oddly-sized cuts left over from larger jobs. Since you won’t need much carpet to cover your RV, you can save a lot of money if you can find a remnant that’s the right size. Remnants aren’t usually left out on the sales floor, so ask an associate if they can show you where they are. No matter how careful you are when you pry up the staples, chances are you’ll miss a couple. Sweep the plywood carefully to make sure there are no staples that can work their way up through the carpet after you install it. Start working in 1 corner of the RV, using a staple gun to staple the carpet down every 4 inches (10 cm). Pull the carpet as taut as possible as you work your way to the other side of the room to ensure that your carpet is free of any wrinkles after installation. Some RV owners prefer not to staple their carpet to the subfloor because they want to be able to remove the carpet regularly in order to clean it. This is a good option if you have pets that will be travelling with you. Since the flooring is usually installed before the walls in an RV, there is usually a slight gap between the floor and the wall. You can hide this gap by installing the trim you removed...

Removing some of the fruit will help the fruit that remains be larger and tastier, as well as preventing the branch from falling under the weight. When the fruit begins to emerge, remove the smallest fruits and leave about four inches between the healthy fruits you want to keep. Different varieties peak at different times between August and October. Learn what your apple variety should look and taste like at its peak. The apples should be easy to pluck from the tree; it shouldn't be necessary to yank them off when they're ripe.  In general, the apples' background color should no longer be green (unless you're growing a green variety). Apples that are falling from the tree in the slightest breeze may be overripe, so act quickly! They keep best at a temperature between 32 and 45 degrees F. They will stay fresh at this temperature for up to six months. Check the apple bin frequently and throw out any rotten apples. Apples can also be preserved by making  apple jam,  apple butter, or  apple sauce.

Removing the doors, along with any shelving or other extra features, makes the cabinets a lot lighter. Be sure to label the parts with tape after unscrewing them so you can reinstall them properly later. Find the stud measurements you marked on the back of the cabinets. Drill all the way through them, making holes about 2 in (5.1 cm) wide. Make sure the holes are about 3⁄4 in (1.9 cm) from the cabinet’s edges. Start with the corner cabinet or leftmost cabinet if you’re not installing in a corner. Rest the bottom of the cabinet on the ledger board. Line it up with the studs, then fasten it in place with 3 in (7.6 cm) cabinet screws in each hole. It’s best to leave the screws a little loose until you’ve finished shimming the cabinet. Check over the cabinet for uneven spots. Slip shims behind the cabinet’s sides to raise them. Continue adding and adjusting these wooden strips until the cabinet is plumb.  Shims are small, wooden strips used for positioning. They’re sold in packs at home improvement stores. You can test the cabinet with a level to make sure it looks perfect. Secure 2 cabinets to the wall before trying to fasten them. First, get the cabinet as close to the first one as possible. Repeat what you did before, screwing the cabinet to the studs and shimming it until it’s level. Pick the cabinet where the screws will be least noticeable. The holes should be inside the cabinet on the front edge of  the frame. Make sure you’re not drilling where the hinges lay. Drill a 1⁄8 in (3.2 mm) hole below the top hinge, then another hole above the lower hinge. Hold the cabinets together with a pair of clamps to ensure they stay level. Slide a 2 1⁄2 in (6.4 cm) screw into each hole. Use a cordless screwdriver to secure the cabinets together. Remove the clamps and check that the cabinets appear level. If the cabinets aren’t level, undo the screws. Adjust the shims as needed, then push the cabinets closer together before putting the screws back in place. Repeat the process with any other cabinets you want to hang. Hang...

Repair any damage you can see to the external roof by replacing lost tiles or shingles. Avoid making any further holes in felt roof material by nailing down loose bits. You can purchase a bitumen mat material that works well as a ‘sticking plaster’ for any roof holes. This is available with a self-adhesive backing so it can simply be cut to fit and applied to the roof.  You can also apply a generous layer of bitumen paint before adding the patch of felt. Apply the felt while the paint is still wet. Duct tape also works well as a robust temporary measure. If you spot any cracks in the shed, patch them immediately using wood filler (outside) and duct tape (inside). Any leaking windows can be patched using sealant. To preserve the life of your shed, it’s a good idea to repaint it every few years with timber preservative, stain or paint. This will help preserve the wood.

Repeat the straight stitch on the inseam of the trousers just as you did for the outside of the pantleg. Make sure to keep the stitch about 0.5 in (1.3 cm) from the raw edges of the fabric. Remove the pins as you sew. Don’t sew over them. If you’re making the trousers for yourself, try them on and check the length. Have a friend help you with this part since you’ll need someone to pin the pants up to the desired length while you’re standing up straight. Or, if you’re making the pants for someone else, have them try them on and pin them up to the length they want. Then, remove the pants, trim the excess fabric, if needed, and sew across the folded edges of the pants to secure the hems.  Position the stitch about 0.5 in (1.3 cm) from the folded edges of the pantlegs. Make sure that the raw edges of the pantlegs are tucked up inside of the pantlegs and not visible. After you finish hemming the pantlegs, trim any remaining excess threads.

Rephrase the quote in your own words to clarify what it means. Begin with a phrase like, "In other words," and present the quote in different terms to convey what the author meant. Be sure to avoid straying from the original meaning. For example, say, "In other words, when Aristotle said, 'It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it', he meant that it is important to know what other people's beliefs are, even if you don't agree with them." Link the quote to a greater significance, movement, theme, motif, or theory to justify why you've analyzed it. Be concise and convey this importance in no more than 2-3 sentences. Include a breakdown of how the quote affected its audience (e.g., by introducing a new idea or by inciting an emotional response). For instance, write something like, “This quote from Churchill, as part of a stirring speech that inspired Britain, encapsulates his role in boosting morale during the war.” Establish the lasting effect of a quote by demonstrating how it is still relevant today, beyond its immediate context. Look for parallels between different historical eras. Offer a theory for why the words have resonated over time. For example, you might connect the Winston Churchill quote, "Healthy citizens are the greatest asset any country can have", to current-day debates about healthcare.

Repot it into a container with drains holes in the bottom that is only one size larger than its current pot. Pour 1 to 2 inches (2.5 to 5.1 cm) of peat-based potting mix into the new container, turn the umbrella plant on its side and gently slide it out of its old container.  If the roots are sticking to the side of the container, run a butter knife around the inside of the container to loosen them. Set the umbrella plant into the container and finish filling it with potting mix. Water it generously with aged water to help settle the soil around the roots. Use sharp scissors or bypass hand pruners to cut the stems right above a leaf.  New leaves and stems will grow from just below the pruning cut. Wipe the leaves off with a damp sponge and clear, room-temperature water when they get dusty. Dirt and dust on the leaves block the light and provide a suitable environment for spider mites.

Research a reputable canoe company and select the model of strip canoe you'd like to put together. Place your order and wait for the kit to arrive. Your kit should contain the wood for your canoe, the layout and instructions, some hardware, and fiberglass cloth. You may require other tools to actually assemble your strip canoe. This will ensure that you are completely prepared. Make sure you have all the necessary tools and equipment to put together your canoe. This may take several hours, depending on the difficulty of the canoe you've chosen. Take your time to really read and visualize the instructions. If you don't understand a step or two, contact the company for assistance. This will save you time in the long run. This is what you will build your strip canoe on. Place a long thin table or platform on top of saw horses or blocks. The platform or piece of wood should be completely level. Your sawback will probably be 12 to 15' long and will act as the skeleton around which you'll assemble your strip canoe. Hopefully, your kit contains molds or outlines for forms. Forms act as a support system to shape and hold strips that are stretched and attached to your sawback. Trace the forms onto particle board and use a saw to cut them out.  The forms will appear mushroom-shaped when stacked. The wider end will be placed on the bottom of your sawhorse or the bottom of your canoe. Some kits may include pre-cut forms. In this case, simply spread them out in the correct order and begin to attach them to the sawback. You'll want to attach the forms to station blocks, small 1" wide pieces of wood. Make sure the wider part of the form is connected to the station block. Then attach the station blocks flat on the sawback using drywall screws. Attach your forms/station blocks about 12" from each other and make sure they are evenly centered. This will keep your boat aligned. Depending on whether or not your kit includes them, you may have to cut 2 quarter-circle sections that will hold the shape at the end of your canoe....

Research has increasingly shown that there is a linkage between the bacteria in your gut and the activity of the vagus nerve. Specifically, eating more Lactobacillus rhamnosus can reduce depression- and anxiety-related behaviors, most likely by stimulating the vagus nerve.  The research conducted on Lactobacillus rhamnosus was carried out in mice and researchers are thus not 100% sure that consuming this probiotic will always have similar effects on humans. Bifidobacterium longum is another probiotic that has been shown to increase vagal activity in mice and that may be able to stimulate the vagus nerve in humans. Cutting these from your diet will allow you to function at your best. Avoid foods that have added sugars, switch to decaf coffee and tea, and drink only non-alcoholic beverages. This may help you to feel calmer in general. Research on fasting conducted with rats has indicated that dietary restriction can result in increased parasympathetic activity, which is possibly caused by vagus nerve stimulation. If you’re in good health, consider fasting every now and then to possibly stimulate your vagus nerve and enjoy other health benefits.  Other benefits of intermittent fasting may include increased longevity, lower blood pressure, prevention of age-related diseases, and lower body weight. Note that fasting is not recommended for the very young, the elderly, or those who are seriously ill.

Research shows that about 93% of our communication is non-verbal, with only 7% of communication happening through our actual words. Because of this, body language is by far the most powerful weapon you have in your romantic arsenal. Understanding how to employ body language in your favor will overshadow almost any other mistake that you might make during the flirting process. This basically means that you should imitate the other person's tone of voice, facial expressions, etc. This will make the other person feel at ease with you and build rapport between you both. Having an open demeanor is what you should aim for when flirting with women. This means that you need to avoid crossing your arms (i.e. closing your body) or legs. Crossing your arms can be viewed as trying to put a barrier between yourself and the other person. Try to keep your arms hanging at your sides if you are standing. And if you are sitting, open your legs toward the woman, if possible, and rest your arms on the tops of your legs, with your hands dangling between your legs. This stance demonstrates confidence and openness. This goes back to creating an open feeling between you and the woman you're flirting with. Tilting your head towards a person lets them know you're listening. Tilting your body towards a person lets them know you are fully engaged in the conversation. A small touch can let a woman know you are interested in more than just talking to her. Try complimenting her on her necklace and touching it briefly or lightly touching her arm as you laugh at something funny she's said.

Research shows that music can have an impact on dream content. For this reason, the music that you listen to several hours before bed can either improve or worsen your dreams. Choosing music that is calm, quiet, and repetitive may help you have good dreams. Studies show that white noise can help induce sleep. If you sleep soundly, you may have better dreams. You can take advantage of white noise in several ways:  Small electric white noise generators are now available at many retailers. These produce sounds like static, ocean waves crashing, and forest noises, all at soothing volumes. Turn one on as you go to sleep to see if it helps you have good dreams. You can also purchase or stream sound recordings of white noise. You can play these on a stereo set, computer, smart phone, etc. when you are trying to go to sleep, and reap the benefits of good dreams. Some people also find that a fan turned on low provides a gentle level of white noise. Research shows that smells can impact a person’s mood, and so surrounding yourself with pleasing scents (such as lavender) can help you have good dreams, get over recurring bad dreams, and avoid insomnia. Fresh flowers and aromatic oils, for instance, can be used for this purpose. In addition, you can light incense and/or scented candles as you are approaching your bedtime. However, you should be absolutely sure that you extinguish these before going to bed to avoid accidentally causing a fire in your sleep. To sleep well and have good dreams, you should be in a comfortable place and position.  Choose whatever mattress, bedding, and pillows feel most comfortable to you personally. Sleep on your side, if possible, rather than your back or stomach. Control the temperature of the room so that it is cool (about 60 degrees Fahrenheit). If you do not have a way to set the temperature of the room, you can open a window or use a fan to cool it, or add another blanket to make your bed warmer.

Research shows that one of the most effective ways to deal with an unwanted thought is to simply let it run its course. However, that doesn't mean you necessarily have time to do that in any given moment. Create a "worry period," a set time each day when you are allowed to worry. Consider the rest of your day a worry-free zone.  Set your worry period for the same time each day and early enough that it won't make you anxious right before bed.  If a bad thought comes into your mind, notice it and tell yourself you will worry about it later. You can even keep a notebook to jot it down or simply say to yourself: "I want to remain calm. I will come back to this later." It may or may not come up again.  If the thought returns, make a tick next to it in your notebook. Say to yourself, "Yes, I will get to you, just not right now." Go over your list during your designated worry period. If the bad thoughts or worries still bother you, then go ahead and worry about them, but only for the set worry period. If they no longer bother you, cross them off and move on.  Postponing your worries will break the habit of dwelling on bad thoughts and disrupting your day, but at the same time you're not battling to suppress or block the thought. If the thought continues to arise repetitively, you may need to discuss it with a mental health professional. For instance, when the unhelpful thought occurs, make a mental note that it did occur. It might be something you say out of habit to yourself, or it might be something in your environment, something someone said or did, that triggered a bad memory.  When people remember the bad memory AND engage in it, they relive the memory, emotions and all, unless they are aware that they are being triggered. Once you become aware, you can work on postponing the bad thought, as described above. You can acknowledge that yes, bad things have happened in your life, and you understand why you were reminded of this memory in this instance, but you practice (or at least consider) putting it aside for...

Research suggests that multitasking makes a person feel more drained and less satisfied overall. You won't be able to focus on the tasks you need to complete. Plus, even if you complete them all well enough, you're more likely to exhaust your mental resources earlier than if those tasks were handled separately. Know your limitations, and don’t over-commit your time and energy. Focus on the tasks that you already manage instead of taking on more. Remember to allow time for yourself. There are many advantages to being connected 24/7, but that level of connection to the outside world can quickly cause mental fatigue. Artificial TV and computer screen lights can strain your eyes, cause headaches, and alter melatonin production as well as circadian rhythms. These changes may not allow you to experience daily, restorative sleep. Be sure to turn off all electronics at least an hour before bedtime.  Being connected to people even when you're alone means that you never have the chance to unwind and focus only on yourself. When it’s time to go to sleep, be sure to turn off your phone, log out of your social media accounts and turn off your computer completely. To avoid the temptation of switching everything back on, physically pick yourself up and move away from your technological goodies. When you focus on long-term goals, the returns can seem minimal and distant. By breaking those goals into smaller, short-term chunks, you can celebrate numerous, small victories on a regular basis. This, in turn, makes it easier to focus on your goals. For example, if you want to drop several dress sizes over six months, break that goal down by aiming to lose one to two pounds each week. Even if you have the physical energy to keep up with a busy schedule, you may not have the mental energy to do so. Remove anything from your calendar that isn't a necessity.

Examples of other things that relax you might include knitting, reading a book, going for a walk, or playing a musical instrument. If you don’t schedule things, chances are you won’t do them. Look at your week and purposefully schedule in time to practice relaxation. Be specific about the time and the activity, and stick to your plan. For example, you might practice deep breathing between 6 and 6:15 p.m. every Thursday night, or read a book every Sunday between 8 and 9 p.m. A lot of people imagine sitting quietly for hours on end with a clear mind, and give up on meditation before they begin. The truth is, keeping a clear mind and sitting quietly is difficult for most of us. Here are some tips to get started:  Start with short 3- to 5-minute sessions. If even that seems too long for you, try just a minute or two to start. Setting a timer on your phone can be helpful. Know what to expect from yourself. Don't expect your mind to be completely clear while meditating. It’s more useful to work on catching yourself when your mind drifts. With time, you’ll become quicker at catching your mind and setting it back on track. Meditate in your own way. If you struggle with sitting and doing nothing, try a walking meditation, where you focus your attention on the act of walking and the sensations that accompany it. You can also try a guided meditation, of which there are many videos and audio clips online. If you miss a day practicing your relaxation techniques (deep breathing, meditation, yoga, walking etc.), don’t...

Research the realities of day-to-day life in your dream destinations, as well as any hurdles that you will have to overcome in order to get there. Then ask yourself how much hassle you are willing to endure in order to travel. Weigh this against the benefits of travelling there to make sure that your trip will still be a positive experience in the end. Consider things like:  Whether you will need to get a passport, visa, and/or vaccinations beforehand (which will also have to be factored into your budget). How developed their infrastructure is in terms of medical services, public transportation, roads, internet and cellphone service, and availability of ATMs and/or currency exchanges. How comfortable you’ll feel when visiting a country or region where you don’t speak the local language. What special needs you or fellow travelers may require based on age, disabilities, or medical conditions. In addition to deciding how long you will be travelling, decide when you’ll be going. For each destination, research what weather you should expect during this timeframe. Decide whether these conditions are tolerable to you. Then judge their impact on the activities you hope to pursue while there.  For example, if you don’t mind the extra heat, humidity, and afternoon thunderstorms, there is little difference between visiting Puerto Rico in the summer and any other time of the year. On the other hand, if you’re an outdoorsy type who hates the bitter cold, but who can only currently travel during the winter, you may want to postpone that trip to Maine for another time. Also consider the weather's impact on your health or those who will be joining you, based on age, medical history, and current health. Of course, a special event (like spending New Year’s Eve in Times Square) may be part of a destination’s draw for you. But if not, research each destination’s cultural calendar to see if they will be hosting any big activities during your stay there. If so, gauge whether this will add or detract from your own experience. ...

Researchers believe that genetics play a role in the development of MS. If you have a close relative (such as a parent or sibling) with MS, you are more likely to get the disease. However, having a family member with MS does not mean that you will inherit it. Multiple sclerosis occurrence rates vary depending on age, gender, and race. This knowledge won’t help you prevent the disease, but it can help you become more aware of your risk of contracting MS.  Women are 2-3 times more likely to get MS than men. The onset of MS can happen at any age, but it is most common among people between 20 and 50. Multiple sclerosis is most common of among Caucasians of northern European descent. It is least common among people with Asian, African, and Native American ancestry. MS is autoimmune disorder, but it is linked to other conditions, including thyroid disease, type 1 diabetes, and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). If you have one of these conditions, talk to your doctor about whether or not they think they may impact your risk of contracting MS.

Researching your ancestry will likely leave you with a lot of paperwork, which can pile up and get disorganized easily. Invest in a filing cabinet or file folders to organize your documents, either by year, or type of document. Be sure to file documents as soon as you find them to avoid losing papers or getting sections mixed up, and try to date copies of documents to track your research. An excellent option for organizing your ancestry-related findings is to purchase genealogy software. There are many different options available that record and organize information and facilitate the sharing of family history data. Read online reviews to determine what software will best serve you in your research. Making a family tree is a way to present your ancestry-related findings visually, clearly charting marriage and parentage over generations. Each generation is generally depicted across a single, horizontal line, with lines and brackets indicating marriage and children. Depending on your intended use for the chart (e.g. as a gift for a family member or simply a visual reference for yourself), you may opt to make a family tree by hand or online. Once your research has allowed you to identify your ancestors and family history, consider writing a book about the information is a good way to record and present your findings. Most publications of this type are produced only for family members; very few traditional publishers will pay to publish family histories unless there is a broad, marketable appeal. You will likely have to pay a price per copy to have a book published, which will in turn make the book available to distant relatives who search for details about their ancestry. You might also consider publishing an eBook, or simply printing copies of your book for friends and family.

Resist the urge to bow your knees outward. It makes your pedaling less efficient and puts more strain on your knees. Drive the pedals straight downward and pull your knees straight upward as you cycle. Road bike handlebars offer three main positions, with the lower curved portion being called the drops. Holding them shifts more of your weight onto the front wheel, which helps balance the bike when you’re heading downhill. Holding onto the drops lowers your upper body, which creates better aerodynamics, as well. You may be traveling at high speeds on your road bike, but you’ll want to slow down for some corners. Braking during a turn can cause you to skid and wreck, so check your speed before a turn. Slow down on straightaways while your bike is straight up. The same point applies to stops. Begin braking early so you don’t have to squeeze your brakes hard for a sudden stop. Make sure to squeeze each brake evenly so you aren’t relying on one more than the other. You may think it’s best to ride so you can see the oncoming traffic, but riding with the traffic is safer. Stay as far to the right as you can, and ride on the shoulder of the road if the surface is smooth enough. Bicycle traffic laws may vary depending on where you live. Make sure to familiarize yourself with the rules in your area. It’s important to always watch for drivers, other riders, and pedestrians as you ride. Check behind you when you are changing lanes or turning. Watch out for parked cars, road construction, or other obstacles. Seeing what’s ahead of you will give you more time to react to it. Shift your back gears as you speed up. Shift your front gears as the terrain changes, like at the bottom of the hill you’re about to ride up. Remember that the left shifter changes the larger cogs by your pedals. The right shifter changes the smaller cogs on the back wheel.

Respect is important in a loving relationship. Always give your significant other a chance to speak and have an opinion, and when he or she talks, make sure that you listen. Respecting your significant other also means never giving him or her a reason to think that you're unfaithful. It's fun to flirt with other people, but if they see you flirting with everyone who walks down the street then they're never going to want to commit to you. You should give your significant other the same consideration you would give a good friend. This means that you should always be there for them and be unselfish in your actions. But be a good friend to your significant other because you want him or her to be happy, not because you want something from them. No one wants to feel trapped in a relationship. This is why many people keep themselves from getting too serious. If you give your significant other the freedom to do the things he or she loves, you will go far in making the person feel comfortable with the idea of loving you. Respect your significant other’s independence; don’t try to change them and certainly don’t invade their privacy. They are allowed to have secrets and things that are just theirs. Celebrate the good things about your significant other and try to accept the things that annoy you. Don’t try to get your significant other to change for you. For example, don’t force your significant other to change his or her diet or personal style. If you make suggestions along these lines and he or she says “no”, respect that and don’t bring it up again. Alone time and personal space are important for both of you, so don’t try to make your significant other give up his or her personal time to spend more time with you. Be respectful of your significant other’s personal space as well and don’t try to rearrange your significant other’s room or go through his or her things. Do things on your own or with your friends a couple of times each week. Don’t force your significant other to spend every waking moment with you or he or...

Responsibility means doing the things that need to be done. It also means being honest and reliable. All of this plays into what parents will say when you ask them for a sleepover. If you want to be treated maturely, be mature. Don't expect this to work overnight, though. Just because you are mature for one whole day does not mean that your parents will let you go to a sleepover. Whether you have your parents' trust or not, permission often depends on the night you're planning the sleepover for. If you want to sleepover on a school night, parents are usually unlikely to give you permission. On the other hand, a night during summer vacation will stand a better chance. If you want to increase the chances of getting permission, you should plan to spend the night when there's nothing happening the next day.  Sleepovers are generally harder to get permission for if they're co-ed. Moms and dads can be uncomfortable if boys and girls are sleeping over together, and may have firmer rules depending on their values.  The size of the sleepover also matters. Some parents will be more comfortable with smaller sleepover than bigger ones. Earning your parent's trust is not something that happens overnight. It can also be difficult and slow to rebuild if it is broken. In order to have trust between parent and child, you should be talking to them every day. Let them know about everything that's happening in your life. It's good to make this a normal thing for your relationship with them. This will help a lot more than your chances for sleepovers.  Trust goes both ways. If you want your parents to trust you, then you should give them a chance and trust them too. A good way to show your parents that you trust them is to listen to their advice. In an adult's world, play needs to be balanced out with work. In your case, keeping up with homework and household chores will prove that you deserve to go out and let loose. If there's anything that needs to be done before you ask them make a point of doing it first. Don't let an...

Resume templates can be very useful if you are uncertain about how to format your resume, or you are not confident using the formatting tools on Word on another word processing programme. If you prefer create your own format and not to use a template, start by planning out which sections you will be including and how they will be organised. A resume should generally include the following sections:  Education and qualifications. Work and volunteer experience. Skills and qualities. It should also include your full contact details and state that references are available upon request. There are a number of different types of resume, including the chronological resume, the functional resume, the combination resume, and the curriculum vitae (CV). The chronological resume lists your work experience from your most recent position to your earliest position, with your responsibilities for each position listed under the position title and dates you held it. This type of resume helps you to show how you have progressed over time.  Most chronological resumes only cover the last 5 to 10 years of your employment history. You may wish to include positions earlier than this if they are appropriate to the job you're seeking. This is the format most American employers prefer to see resumes in. The functional resume lists your key job skills first, then follows with a list of positions you've held. It can be useful to highlight your particular skills while hiding gaps in your employment history, but it is generally not advisable for students or recent graduates to use this format. It can be a useful format for those looking to translate their current job skills into a different field. A third option is the combination resume, sometimes known as a skills-based resume. This format enables you to highlight your skills most prominently, but also to tie them to your practical work experience. This can be helpful if your skills are more relevant than your work experience for the position you are applying for, but this format is...

Resume titles play an important role in determining your success as a candidate when you apply for a job, as they showcase your capabilities from the very first glance. However, it is extremely important to keep your resume title updated, so that it reflects your growing capabilities as effectively and accurately as possible. It may be necessary to change your title after a promotion, as your job position as well as your responsibilities are likely to change.  Your new role may have a set of responsibilities that you never handled, or you may get some special skills that take your profile to a whole new level. In such a case, neglecting to change your resume title may get you overlooked for opportunities that you may be capable of handling very efficiently. When you are handed new possibilities at work, it is important to update your title to portray these enhanced capabilities.  You may be given a new product to handle or a new geography to oversee, which can significantly enhance your personal profile. Whenever you gain experience that may be improving your chances to bag that dream job, just go ahead and display. However, you should refrain from over exaggerating relatively minor changes. When you are applying a job that uses very specific skills or keywords, it is a good practice to tweak your title to showcase your fitment to this role. As mentioned in the section above, it is important to use keywords and phrases that are relevant to the recruiter with respect to the job being discussed.

Retinoids are derivatives of vitamin A which are used in many anti-aging and acne products.  Retinoids increase cell turnover, which helps to unclog the pores and may make them less noticeable.  Retinol, a relatively gentle retinoid, is available in many anti-aging products sold at drug stores and beauty supply stores. Tretinoin is a stronger retinoid commonly used to treat acne and available only with a prescription; you would need to speak to your doctor or dermatologist before pursuing this treatment. Laser treatments provide a more permanent solution to large pores.  Non-ablative laser treatments like Medlite, Genesis and Fraxel increase collagen production which tightens pores, causing them to look smaller. The major drawback to laser treatment is the cost. You will probably require two to three sessions, at $500 a pop. Accutane is a prescription medication for severe acne. It is also a very strong medication which causes severe skin dryness. This medication can unclog pores and reduce oil production.

Reunions can be funded through alumni donations, class gifts, alumni association dues, or ticket sales. No matter how you handle the finances of your reunion, you will want to keep meticulous records. This task will likely fall to your Class Treasurer or reunion committee member who will handle ticket sales. Make sure that any money you collect for the reunion is being spent responsibly and that you stick to your budget. Perhaps you already have funds available from class gifts or alumni association dues. Or perhaps the money from the event will have to come entirely from ticket sales. No matter what, you need to determine a total budget for the event. Make sure that you do not rely on high ticket sales or expensive tickets. You want the event to be manageable for everyone, and expensive tickets can hurt attendance. Make sure you keep room in your budget for:  Bartending and catering Event space rental Party supply rental (tables, chairs, cups, a/v equipment, etc.) Decorations Souvenirs (gift bags, special T-shirts, etc.) Other vendors (photographers, clean-up crews, DJs, etc.) Ideally, a reunion will be on a weekend during the late spring or summer, when people are more able to travel freely. Your reunion could be a full weekend affair with many activities, or it can simply be a gathering on a Friday or Saturday evening. If you like, you can ask your classmates to vote on several possibilities for a reunion date. By using a Doodle poll or Google survey, you can encourage attendance amongst your guests. A vital part of the planning is considering exactly where you are going to hold the event. Be sure that the venue is appropriate for the size of your gathering, the tone you wish to set, and your budget. The venue should also be a short drive from your old high school to make it easy for classmates to attend. Some excellent venues to consider include:  Your old high school gym or auditorium A local hotel ballroom A banquet hall or restaurant A community center A park picnic site Use your contact list to send...

Revisiting your character when they were alive and happy is a great way to make you feel less sad. It’s comforting to know that even though they eventually die, you can always go back and spend time with them. There are qualities that you love and admire about your favorite character. Try to incorporate them into your daily life.  If you admire the character’s kindness, try to be kind and generous. This is a way of letting the character’s legacy live on.  You can even emulate your character in every day kinds of ways. If your character liked to take long walks or to drink coffee, try these things out. They will make you feel closer to your character and it will help you to understand them in a different way. Think about your favorite character and the impact they made not only on you, but on other characters. The story would not be the same without this character, and even though they are gone you still can remember all the good that they did for the book or show. Maybe you feel like their death was unnecessary or wrong. However, most authors kill off characters for a reason. Often it’s to spur other characters into action. Although the death of your fictional character was devastating, maybe it was necessary for the plot or for the other characters of the story. Just because the death happened for a reason, it doesn’t mean you have to be any less sad about it. It may just be comforting to know that they didn’t die in vain.

Ribs have a thick membrane that needs to be removed before cooking - otherwise it gets tough and chewy. Slide your fingers under the membrane and work it off, or use a knife or screwdriver to help it come loose. Discard the membrane once it is removed.  Be sure to get every last shred of membrane, since you don't want bits of chewy membrane on your ribs. You can ask the butcher to remove it for you. You can use a rub and let the seasoning seep into the ribs overnight, or skip this step and mop the beef with barbecue sauce during the cooking process. Some chefs contend that brining overnight with a rub improves the flavor, while others prefer not to infuse the beef with spices and salt. Either method will result in fall-apart ribs that are tender on the inside and crispy on the outside.  If you're using a rub, you need to plan ahead so you have time to let the ribs brine overnight. Just rub your dry spice mix over both sides of the racks, wrap them in plastic wrap, and refrigerate overnight. Make a homemade rub with the following ingredients:  3 Tablespoons salt 2 Tablespoons chili powder 1 1/2 teaspoons black pepper 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper 1 teaspoon smoked paprika 1 teaspoon dried thyme 1 teaspoon garlic powder
