There are a wide range of incubators available, costing anywhere from one hundred to several thousand US dollars. Choosing a model is beyond the scope of this guide, but these basics can inform your decision:  Forced-draught incubators have better ventilation systems and are generally easier to manage. However, some studies suggest that the more labor-intensive still air incubators get better results for pheasant eggs. Read the manual before buying if possible. If installed incorrectly or in the wrong environment, the incubator may overheat. . If you've never used an incubator before, read our detailed guide to the general process. This includes important setup and sanitation information before you get started. Return to this guide to find information specific to pheasant incubation. Start this at least a week in advance. Leaving incubator on this long will allow it to reach a steady temp and humidity before eggs are introduced. If the pheasant hens are not sitting on the eggs, collect them every morning, and perhaps again later in the day. Eggs left out are vulnerable to heat damage and predation. If your incubator is not ready yet, store the eggs in a tray of clean sand, with the pointed end tilted downward at a 45º angle Measure humidity and temperature daily, keeping the area as close to 55ºF (12.7ºC) and 65–70% relative humidity as possible. Even a change of 5ºF (change of 2.8ºC) can make an additional 10% of the eggs unviable.  Rotate each egg once a day. Mark two opposite sides of the egg with an X and an O to help you keep track, using a pencil or felt-tipped pen. Move on to incubation as soon as you can, and always within 11 days of collection. andle the eggs (optional). A bright light can reveal signs of healthy development or failure. If you have limited space in your incubator, perform this test to determine which eggs you can discard. Place the remaining eggs inside the incubator.  Do not expose eggs to the light for too long, as the heat can cause damage.  You may perform this test periodically...

There are all sorts of slim engagement box styles! Search online or visit a local jeweler. Pick out a box that you think your partner will love, and simply slip it into your pocket when you are ready to propose. The slim-profile of the ring box makes it inconspicuous, so you can plan the perfect surprise.  You can place your box inside your front or back pocket. If you’d like, you can place it in the breast pocket of a shirt as well. You can also get a personalized wooden engagement ring box that your partner can cherish forever. Search online for custom engraving companies, and select a small jewelry box option. Then, choose to write your initials or names and include the date. Order your box 1-5 weeks in advance if you have a date in mind. Search online to purchase a kinetic spinning box. These are handmade, wooden boxes that enable the ring to spin around and face your partner when you open it. These easily fit into your pocket and provide a special way to propose. Use this if you are looking for an nontraditional proposal option. Oftentimes, ring boxes can be bulky. You can use a different jewelry box to hold your ring instead. Use a ring stand to hold your engagement ring, and line the box with stuffing or silk to protect it. This can add a personal touch to your engagement ring box. If you or your partner like quarter machine toys, go with this for an out-of-the-box alternative.  Look for a quarter vending machine display when you are running errands. Insert a quarter, and redeem your prize. Then, use the container to hide your ring.  The plastic container is much smaller than an average ring box, so you can easily use it as a diversion. Practice opening and closing the container in advance, so you can easily open it when it's time to propose.

There are apps that pay you for doing marketing tasks, such as scanning products at a grocery store or completing a survey. Download one of these apps and use it to find small paid tasks you can do. You may not be able to make much money per task this way. However, you can start right away and make some money. There are many websites devoted that connect users to free online surveys. These usually only pay at most a few dollars each, but they take very little effort and may provide fast payment. Amazon’s Mechanical Turk program is another way to make money online by answering questions or completing simple tasks. However, the pay is usually very low, often only a few cents per task. Post an ad online or on a bulletin board offering to do odd jobs or sign up with an employment agency that specializes in temporary work.

Professional boarding places tend to be expensive, so your cozy little house or apartment is a nice alternative.  Check to see what other pet sitters in your area charge to help you set your rates. Around the holidays, pet-boarders fill up, meaning you can probably charge more. Ask your friends and family if they know anyone who needs a pet sitter. Word-of-mouth is often a great way to find jobs. You can walk dogs for people who own dogs but who are too busy to walk them. However, this can be a demanding job, especially if you end up walking a few dogs at once or if you are walking dogs throughout the day, so ensure that you...

There are certain chemicals and man-made devices that are advertised for their abilities to keep predators away. They can help you ward off fisher cats.  One option is to purchase predator urine. For example, coyotes, wolves, eagles, owls, bobcats, and mountain lions secrete smells that might scare a fisher cat off.   You can purchase the urine of stronger predators than the fisher cat online or in many hunting or outdoors stores. You can usually buy a bottle of it for under $20. Sometimes it comes in scent tags. Apply the predator urine near your chicken coop to help keep the fisher cat and other nuisances away. They will smell the urine, fear there is a stronger predator in the area, and leave. Create a perimeter with the scent tags or bottled scent. A similar device you can buy online and in some stores is a night guard black box with a solar panel at the top. It flashes a single blinking red light which is designed to simulate a red predator eye and you should hang it above the coop door. What exactly is a fisher cat, and how does it differ from, say, a house cat or a raccoon? They are relatives of the marten. They aren’t really cats at all.  Fisher cats are also called pecan cats or black cats. They are large, dark colored, and furry. Technically, they belong to the weasel family.  The adult males weigh 7 to 12 pounds. They can grow to 40 inches long. Their tails are very long and distinctive, stretching out 13 to 15 inches. Fisher cats have short legs. Their ears are small, and their tails are furry. Some are dark brown, but others are black. One way to recognize them is through their long fur. Fisher cats have large feet with five sharp toes. They use these toes to climb tries, kill prey, or navigate across snow. They make frightening screaming sounds that people sometimes mistake for human beings being harmed. These actions may be outlawed in some states, and you don't want to do anything that's not allowed. Laws will vary from state-to-state.  Consider contacting a pest management professional. Such...

There are certain foods that can help you relieve or prevent bloating. These are typically foods that contain nutrients that reduce swelling and help digestion. If you have issues with bloating, add these foods into your diet more every day in any way you can, such as in recipes or as a snack. These foods include:  Cucumber, which removes accumulated pockets of old waste materials and chemical toxins, and also prevents constipation  Potassium rich foods, such as bananas, avocadoes, oranges, pistachios, and kiwis, which help reduce bloating caused by salt-related water retention  Papaya, which contains papain, a substance that helps break down proteins in your intestinal tract to aid in digestion  Pineapple, which contains bromelain, a substance that help reduce inflammation and treat indigestion Probiotics, found in Greek and other yogurts as well as over the counter supplements, which help with digestion and gas reduction Raw fruits and vegetables, especially cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli and kale, often cause gas and bloating. However, raw vegetables and fruits typically provide the best nutrients, whereas cooking them can destroy some nutrients. To find a happy medium, try sautéing, steaming, or baking your vegetables and fruits instead of boiling them.  Just make sure you don't cook them too long, so you can avoid cooking too many nutrients out of them. Some nutrients are actually increased when certain foods are cooked. For example, tomatoes have more carotenoids when they're cooked. There are some herbs that can help reduce gas and indigestion, which can lead to bloating. These herbs include ginger, cardamom, cinnamon, fennel seeds, dill, basil, oregano, sage, tarragon, peppermint, and rosemary.  You can use these herbs normally in any meal, or you can try finding new recipes that incorporate them. You can also make an herbal tea from them by steeping one teaspoon of dried herb or three tablespoons of fresh herbs in one cup of boiled water for five minutes.   Avoid overly hot or spicy herbs,...

There are different makeup tricks you can use to create the illusion of a slimmer face.  Apply a bronzing powder in the hollows of your cheeks or on the sides of your nose. Adding blush to the tops of your cheeks also can make the face look less full. With the powder, draw a line along your cheekbones, blending the powder in from your ear to the corner of your mouth. Just above it, apply blush.   Choose a bronzer that is two shades darker than your skin tone. This way you can use it to add more shape to your face, making it appear slimmer. If you use makeup to put more emphasis on your eyes, your face is likely going to look slimmer.   When your lips are full, it can make your face look rounder. So if you're worried about that, play up your eyes. Put mascara, eyeliner, and eye shadow on them, and leave your lips plain or only put a plain gloss on them. The shape of the eyebrows is really important to making your face look slim. If your eyebrows are higher and more shaped, this can make your overall face look thinner. Many beauty salons will wax and shape your eyebrows for you if you're not sure how to do it right. Many Hollywood stars use contouring to alter the shape of their faces, such as creating stronger cheekbones or slimmer noses.   To slim the nose, take a darker powder than your skin tone, and apply a thin line of it on each side of your nose. Then, use a brush to blend it along each edge. Use a highlighter to apply it above the eyebrows, and draw a line with it down the center of your nose.  Blend it into your skin with a brush. To contour the face, take a contouring powder, also darker than your skin tone, and draw it on your cheeks, angling down your cheeks. Smudge it in so it doesn't look like a harsh line. Use powder that is two shades darker than your skin. Contouring allows you to alter the shape and lines of your face. Another trick that you can use with makeup to slenderize the face is to add an element of illumination to it.  Take sheer highlighting powder. Using a makeup brush, put it...

There are editors-in-chief for all kinds of publications, from magazines to newspapers to blogs to book publishers. Determine which of these is most appealing. The sets of skills needed by editors-in-chief are typically transferable among various writing industries, from print and online newspapers to magazines and academic publishers. Once you get to the executive level, however, you are an expert in one particular industry and you will probably need to stay in that industry to become editor-in-chief. Do research about the industry and identify some key organizations that are most appealing to you as potential employers. Focus on trends in the industry, as well as successful and unsuccessful models. Most publications will require a bachelor’s degree (or higher) in journalism, mass communication, business or similar for executive level positions. For some publications, however, journalism degrees are not the most appropriate. For example, if you want to be editor-in-chief of a fashion magazine, attend fashion school instead. You should also consider location when determining the best program. Access to internships is easier in urban locations, and certain types of publications may be centered in some cities over others. For example, fashion magazines are probably more prevalent in New York City, whereas entertainment magazines may be more prevalent in Los Angeles.  A prestigious program may expose you to more opportunities or connections with higher-profile individuals or organizations. But smaller schools do not eliminate you from higher positions. In fact, smaller programs may give you more opportunities to take leadership roles because there might be less competition. If you have a bachelor’s degree in another field, you are not immediately discounted from becoming an editor-in-chief. You might build on your bachelor’s degree with a master’s degree, or you might have years of professional industry experience that will substitute for a certain educational background.

There are essentially two different types of nurses. Registered nurses (RNs) are expected to complete a two or three year degree, usually after obtaining a bachelor’s degree, are more often employed in hospitals and are expected to take on more important tasks that involve a greater degree of critical thinking and decision making. Licensed practical nurses (LPNs) usually obtain a nursing certificate after about a year of nursing education. LPNs are more often employed in long term care facilities, filling administrative roles and overseeing the basics of patient care (changing bedpans, linens, IVs, etc…).  In settings where LPNs and RNs work together, RNs outrank LPNs and undertake more intensive and critical duties.  Most nursing school entrance exams offer separate tests for LPN and RN programs. Once you have chosen between becoming a RN or LPN, choose one or more nursing schools that can provide you with your desired degree or certificate through the completion of their program.  Make sure that the school you choose is an accredited school. The school will specify which entrance exam is necessary to apply to the nursing program you want. Find out the specifics of the test you will take so that you know how to study for it and what material to focus on. The exams typically take between 2 and 3.5 hours to complete. The exams may be administered on a computer or using pencil and paper. You will find out your scores immediately after completing the computerized version of the test. The NLN PAX exam consists of about 215 multiple choice questions. The questions on the NLN PAX exam break down into verbal skills, math and science sections. Some of the questions on this exam will not be graded, as they are simply used to gauge responses for future testing. However, you won’t know which questions will or will not be graded at the time of the exam, so answer each one to the best of your ability.  You can’t use a calculator for this exam.  The exam takes about 3 hours to complete and costs about $60 to $100.  You...

If the recipient is not a Google Drive user, they will be invited to create a free account. Change the permissions by clicking the "Can edit" button. You can change this to "Can comment" or "Can view". In order to be able to download the file, the user will need to have "Edit" or "View" permission. If you're sharing with people who don't use Google Drive, or want to share the file with strangers, you'll need to generate a shareable link. Anyone with this link will be able to see and download the file from your Google Drive account. Copy and paste the link into an email or chat and send it to your desired recipients.  Like the other method of sharing, you can adjust the permissions for people that access your file through the shared link. Creating a link is the preferable method if you aren't sure if the recipient will use Google Drive. It allows anyone to download the file without having to create an account.

There are five different types of skin: dry, oily, combination, normal, and sensitive, and it's important to know which one is yours before you begin treating your skin. Every skin type is treated differently, so learning how to treat yours will give you the most radiant glow. In order to test your skin to determine what type of skin you have, it's important to cleanse it with a mild cleanser to remove any excess dirt, makeup, and oils. Then, pat dry with a towel, but do not rub as you don't want to irritate your skin. After you have cleansed and dried your skin, wait about 30 minutes, and then test the skin on your T zone. Taking tissue paper or a napkin, gently press down on your T zone, making sure the entire area makes contact with the paper. The T zone includes your forehead and your nose. Picture making a T, with the top of the T above your eyebrows and the length of the T along your nose. Remove the paper from your face and look at the dirt and oil left on it from your skin to determine your skin type. Here are some different things you might see:  Dry: Skin feels stretchy and taut, there are signs of flaky and dead skin after you've cleansed your face, and pores are small. With this skin type you'll need to take extra care in moisturizing it. Oily: Shiny face and oil on the tissue, with large open pores. In order to achieve a glow with this face you'll need to keep the oil production down by using lighter products. You don't want your face to have a glow just from the oil! Combination: The tissue will be oily because of the T zone, but your cheeks and other parts of your face may be normal or dry. This is a very common skin type and can be treated easily. Normal: The tissue will have little oil and there will be no flakes of skin. This really just means that your face is healthy and produces an adequate amount of oil -- not too much, not too little. You'll still want to treat your face daily, though, to maintain its normalcy. Sensitive: This won't necessarily show on your tissue, but it may show on...

There are four main parts of your body that you'll need to coordinate to properly scream-sing and save your voice from damage. Your mouth, your throat/pharynx, your chest, and your diaphragm. While screaming, each of these parts have "jobs". The diaphragm is a band of muscle that stretches across the bottom of your rib cage. It acts like a bellows, drawing down to pull air into your lungs or pulling up to press air out. Your mouth will releases the sound and form your scream into words. Your mouth should be opened as wide as possible. Avoid distorting the sound with your mouth, as this will add strain to your vocal tract and can result in you hurting your throat. The throat has one purpose and one purpose only: to create the tone. It must be as open as possible. Refrain from adding distortion to your tone from the throat by constricting the muscles there.  Get a feel for the open throat you'll need for your scream-singing by yawning. The upward shift of the back, upper regions of your throat is your soft palate raising. Your tongue should also be flat and somewhat retracted to improve the openness of your throat. Try breathing in on a 'k' sound. This will cause a greater space between the back regions of your tongue and your soft palate, helping you to feel the ideal shape for your throat. Relax the muscles in the top of your chest, open your mouth wide, and breathe. That is the feeling you want in your throat while screaming. If you feel a "trapped" sensation, or feel a kind of blockage or lack of airflow, immediately stop. The chest will be where the distortion of your scream comes from. This is the location where the windpipe is strongest. Therefore, this is where you want to constrict the sound. A trick you might use to constrict the sound in your chest is to place your hands on your chest and push inwards while keeping your posture straight. . When you are talking normally the air comes from your chest. To scream, you want the air to come from your diaphragm. All the force of your scream should originate...

There are four main types of laptops: Netbook, Standard, Hybrid Laptop/Tablet, and Desktop Replacement/Ultrabook. Note that if you are choosing a Mac, your choices will likely not match much of this section.  Netbook - This is the smallest laptop available, and is best suited for heavy travelers. Standard - This is your standard laptop. Suitable for a wide range of situations, and available in a wide range of configurations. Hybrid Laptop/Tablet - These are the newest style of laptops to the scene. They have touch screens and some have detachable keyboards. Desktop Replacement/Ultrabook - These are the largest laptops, and therefore the most powerful (and most expensive). Netbooks are the smallest laptops available, and are perfect for packing in your carry-on or sticking in your purse.   Netbooks are super lightweight, usually only weighing a couple pounds. Netbooks don't have very powerful components, meaning they can only run basic programs such as Office and other productivity software. Because of this, however, they have much longer battery life than other laptops (up to 12 hours in some models).  Netbooks have the smallest screens and keyboards. This means that typing on a netbook will take some getting used to, and you may have to sit pretty close to it. The standard laptop is the most common, and the most varied.   Standard laptops come in a variety of screen sizes. The size of the screen is what determines the overall size of the laptop. The most common size for standard laptops is 14"-15". Standard laptops have limited battery life, and the more powerful the laptop, the quicker the battery will drain. Batteries will also wear out over time. Standard laptops are heavier than a netbook, which makes them harder to fit in small bags. They have more comfortable keyboards and larger trackpads. Hybrid laptops are a relatively new addition to the laptop market. Most run Windows 8, which is designed for the touch interface.   The biggest draw of the hybrid is the touch screen. If you prefer this method of...

There are four stages of sleep, with the fourth and final stage being REM sleep. In order to get more REM sleep, you need to gradually allow your mind and body to go through the first three stages of sleep. Maintaining a regular sleep schedule and healthy sleep habits will help you do this.  Stage N1: This is when you are transitioning into sleep and lasts about five minutes. Your eyes will move slower under your eyelids, and your muscle activity will slow down but you can be easily awakened by a noise or a sound. Stage N2: This is the first stage of true sleep and lasts 10–25 minutes. Your eye movement will stop completely, your heart rate will slow and your body temperature will decrease. Stage N3: This is the beginning of deep sleep, during which you are hard to wake up and if you are woken up, you will often feel groggy or disoriented for a few minutes. In this stage, your brain waves are very slow and blood flow is directed away from your brain to your muscles, which restores physical energy in your body. Stage N4: The final stage of sleep is REM sleep, or dream sleeping. This occurs about 70 to 90 minutes after falling asleep. You will likely experience rapid eye movement, shallow breathing, and your heart rate and blood pressure may increase. During this stage, your arms and legs are also paralyzed. Keep in mind that during the night, your sleep follows a pattern, moving back and forth between deep sleep and REM sleep. Each cycle lasts about 90 minutes and repeats four to six times during the night. As the night progresses, the amount of time you spend in each stage changes. Most deep sleep occurs in the first half of the night. Later in the night your REM sleep stages become longer. Create a sleep schedule where you wake up and go to sleep at the same time everyday, even on weekends or days off. Sleep requirements vary from person to person, but on average, you should be getting between seven and nine hours of sleep. Having a regular sleep schedule will allow you to experience REM sleep more often, as...

There are generally three things you'll be using: a cue stick, table, and pool balls. You can probably guess which is what.  Pick a cue stick appropriate for your size. Most are 58 inches (147 cm) in length, but shorter and longer ones are available. The tip is the most important part of a cue (it's on the narrow end you'll be hitting with). Tips vary from soft to hard, though inexperienced pool players are best served with a medium to medium-soft tip. There are three standard sizes to a pool table: 7, 8, and 9 feet (2.7 m). The Billiard Congress of America defines a "regulation" pool table as any table that is twice as long as it is wide. For example, a 7-foot table is 7 feet (2.1 m) long and 3.5 feet (1.1 m) wide. If you are playing on a smaller table, you may want a shorter cue. As for the pool balls, there are evens and odds, solids and stripes, and, most importantly, the 8 ball and the cue ball. The cue ball is solid white, a bit heavier, and should be the only ball directly hit during the game. In order to play the game, you have to be able to understand the terminology and rules. Familiarizing yourself with the vocabulary of the game will make it easier and quicker to learn.  The "break" happens at the beginning of the game when a player breaks up the fifteen pool balls. It is the first shot. Some players break straight on while others break at an angle. A scratch occurs when the cue ball jumps off the table or rolls into a pocket. Determine the scratch rules before you start any game. It is common for the player who did not receive the scratch to be allowed to place the cue ball anywhere in the "kitchen" upon their subsequent turn. This is the area between the head rail and the head string; or, more simply put, the area between the edge and the second set of diamonds. For now, let's stick to standard 8-ball. Quite clearly, knowing the rules is the only way to win.  Use the triangle to "rack up" the 15 pool balls. Different people have different preferences for the set up, but make sure the 8-ball is...

These schools generally offer a good work environment and are very easy to join. They also help you with getting your life set up in Japan. The pay is also good for an entry level job.  Use the internet and read about the different types of schools. There are maybe 4 very famous ones with branch schools all across the country, but hundreds of smaller ones too. Start by making a list of the famous schools in Japan. Or, if there is a particular city that you want to go to, try looking for schools in that city. Read former teachers' experiences on the internet. Many teachers will write about their experiences while working at their schools. This is a good way to see the pros and cons or each place. Visit the school's website directly. They will provide a lot of information on salaries, types of lessons, housing, responsibilities, and so on. Read students' comments. If you can read Japanese, it is a very good idea to read student's comments about the school they went to. This will give you the best information on that company's atmosphere. Students' comments usually differ greatly from teachers' comments because they see the school from a different perspective. Reading both will help you choose the school that's right for you. Your work life is only a part of your life in Japan. You should read up on Japanese culture and mannerisms. Read people's personal experiences rather than books. Books often contain stereotypical or outdated information. Real people's experiences will give you better insight on life in Japan. Does this type of life suit you? Remember, you will be working in a Japanese work environment (depending on the school), and probably all of your students will be Japanese, so it's essential to understand their culture. You will probably have a short English test at the interview. It will include conjugating verbs in different tenses (for example: Past...

There are hundreds of free, online spelling games aimed towards learners of all ages. Find one that is appropriate for your student's age and spelling ability. You might also use apps to teach the student. Some good websites include:  Spelling City: https://www.spellingcity.com/spelling-games-vocabulary-games.html  Learning Games for Kids: http://www.learninggamesforkids.com/spelling_games.html  Vocabulary.co.il: http://www.vocabulary.co.il/spelling/ If you have multiple students, have them take turns spelling different words. If they spell one wrong, they are out of the game. Choose words and spelling patterns that you have been working on in class. Whoever spells the most words correctly wins.  These competitions are fun for older learners, including English language learners. If you are working one-on-one with a student, see how many words they can spell before they get one wrong. Next time you play the game, challenge them to beat their record. Take words that the student has been working on, and mix up the letters so that they are out of order. Ask the student to put the letters back into the right order. You can do several words at once. Hide words that you have been teaching within a random assortment of letters. Make a list of all of the hidden words, and ask the student to find and circle the words. This will require them to find patterns within random letters. There are many online websites where you can instantly generate word searches. Simply type in what words you want to use, and it will create a word search for you.

There are laws in the U.S. that protect you from being required to disclose your disability status, sexual orientation, and other identifiers at places like school, work and so on. If you have a stigma because of a hidden disability or another reason, you should not feel forced to disclose anything at all if you choose not to. For example, when you are applying for a job, you do not need to disclose any disability or stigma. If you choose to do so, your information is required to be treated confidentially and respectfully. If you feel comfortable doing so, you can talk with people in your life about your visible stigmas. Visible stigmas are those that are immediately noticeable to other people such as being in a wheelchair or being blind. Often visible stigmas require strategies that relate to managing the conversation about the stigma. In this way, you can facilitate a safe yet open discussion.  Start with people closest to you in order to become more comfortable talking about such issues in your preferred manner. Then, if you feel like you want to talk with acquaintances or strangers about the stigma, you have some experience with the types of questions that people may ask. Don’t feel pressured to talk about your stigma. It is a personal decision that should be made by you and you alone. Talking about visible stigma can sometimes be pretty complex. This is due to the immediate social awkwardness that can accompany another person’s prejudices. When you experience stigma around something invisible, such as sexual orientation or having a non-visible health condition, think about how you want to talk with other people about it. Managing invisible stigma is an ongoing process. But it’s best for any stigmatized person to persistently experiment with different ways of talking about or ignoring their unique conditions in order to find a comfortable zone of personal disclosure with others. When figuring out how much you want to share with someone else, consider what you hope to achieve with talking about it. Do you...

There are lots of different behaviors that comprise the symptoms of a sex addiction. While some of these things may have a level of social or societal norm, you may practice them outside of that norm or to such an extreme that is interferes with your life. Some examples include:  Compulsive masturbation Having multiple affairs Compulsively use pornography Having unsafe or risky sex Sadistic or masochistic practices Practicing voyeurism or exhibitionism Addictions have traits in common, regardless of what the addiction actually is. For example, some common addiction behaviors include engaging in the behavior even though you know it causes harm, finding it difficult to stop even when you want to, experiencing some sort of withdrawal symptoms when you don’t engage (irritability, restlessness, cravings, depression), and hiding your behaviors from family and friends or minimizing them.  Do you engage in any of these behaviors regarding your sexual activity? How do they affect you? How does it interfere with your daily life? To get more information and educate yourself, you may also want to look into resources on sex addiction, such as online or at your local library. Some medical conditions can cause changes to sexuality and arousal. You may want to have a medical check-up to rule out possible factors that can affect sexuality. Some considerations include having a brain lesion, endocrine abnormalities, or side-effects from certain medications. Check with your physician whether you are at risk for any of these problems.

There are lots of different kinds of celebrities from singers and actors to bloggers, fiction writers, humanitarians, models, or, even, chefs. To become a celebrity, you have to pick an area to become a celebrity in. Simply 'being a celebrity' isn't going to get you very far, as it is too vague a goal to work towards. It's also good to decide whether you're looking for that 15 minutes of fame or whether you want your celebrity to be a lifelong endeavor. The former is easier to accomplish, but won't give you much lasting power. The latter takes time and effort to accomplish, but will last much longer. If you're wanting to be a celebrity at something, you're going to have to work at it until you're at a level that makes people want to invest in you. While it's true that celebrities aren't always the best at what they do, they still tend to be good at it, whether it's acting, singing, writing, or cooking. Put in 1 hour every day at your chosen field. This will help get you focused on your creative endeavor and keep you focused towards your goal, which is having people know you and your work. There is a lot of the same old same old out there, and it is true that copy cats can become well known (think the many copy cats of books like Twilight or Harry Potter), but it's the original product that is remembered the best. You also need to put a lot of effort into this.  This means, you can use the work of others as a jumping off place. You'll need to add your own flare, or individuality to what you're presenting. For example: if you want to write a vampire novel, that's great! But instead of copying the Anne Rice or Twilight formula of pretty immortal vampires, come up with something unusual about your vampires, something that readers will be intrigued by and remember. Being creative basically means having something that people will remember, because it stands out. Of course, this can backfire if you're too focused on complete originality (there is no such thing), but you should tease out what specific and original...

There are lots of different terminology for formal occasions and you'll need to know where the event falls to know how to dress. Check with the party organizers, because being overdressed typically won't impress people.  Formal and semi-formal are quite different. For a more formal occasion you'd need to wear a tuxedo whereas semi-formal would allow a dark suit instead. An event that's at night is going to be different than an event that happens in the day. For example: if it's a semi-formal during the day cocktail dresses, or a light-colored suit and tie combination will be what you'd wear. There are a variety of different formal and semi-formal occasions where you'll need to know what the best outfit might be, if you want to impress. Evening drinks parties, weddings, even birthdays can be a formal event!  Formal events require that men sport a complete suit. This means tie, cufflinks. Some of the trendier cities have formal events where it's allowable to come wearing a suit bit no tie. For women, formal events can be a little vague. You can do a cocktail dress, a stylish suit, or a full-on evening gown. Black tie for men means black tailcoat, black trousers with two satin seams on the outside legs, a white bow tie, with black or gold cull links and studs. Again, for women you can vary it between cocktail dress, suit, or evening gown. A cocktail party (like an early evening drinks party) means for men a dark suit. Since this is less formal you have more room for creativity (different colored dress shirts and ties and so on). For women it means cocktail dresses (these are less formal than full length evening gowns). You want your footwear to go with your outfit and to enhance your outfit. Fortunately for formal occasions unlike, say, interviews, this is when you can break out the more exciting and fun types of shoes.  Heels are always appropriate for dress occasions, as long as you can walk in them. Shoes that are sparkly can be a lot of fun and give you a bit of a sparkle. In most formal occasions dress...

There are lots of fun places and ways to wear your furry slides. However, furry slides might not be appropriate in every setting. If you're attending a very formal event - like a wedding - or an important business meeting, furry slides probably aren't the most appropriate. If you're using your furry slides as house shoes, look for comfort. Furry slides with a fuzzy insole, some extra padding, or gel insoles are all great indoor options.

There are lots of options to create from needle felting. As you are first beginning you should work on something that is at least three inches in diameter. Try a simple geometric shape like a:  Triangle Square Heart Some of your local crafting stores will have felting supplies, but you'll find more gear online.  To begin your starter kit you'll need:  One or two felting needles Wool fiber Foam cushion or pillow Tear a sheet of wool at least half an inch thicker than your planned shape. Make sure the wool is half an inch larger on each side of the template you've created. You can use either a foam cushion or an old pillow.  You will definitely get holes in the pillow if you go for this option, so be aware. To begin make sure the wool is positioned firmly onto the surface of your choice.  Poke the wool in an up and down motion at random. You don't need to be forceful. Be sure to watch your fingers in this action. Using straight pins, outline the shape that you've chosen.  Then, use your felting needle and go along in an up and down motion along the outline.  This motion will compress the fibers into the outline. Use your felting needle to go through and flatten the center of the shape.  Take time going through the up and down motion until your shape comes into picture. Fold the excess wool into the center. Now repeat the previous step of compressing the center of shape, this time compressing the excess into the center using your felting needle.  This will create a clean and rounded edge. Now that you have a clean looking shape, flip the wool over.  Now repeat compressing all the fuzzies left behind with your felting needle. Use straight pins to secure your shape down for an easier time. This will also relieve your fingers of getting stabbed.

There are lots of ways to flirt, but it’s important to use subtle tactics so you don’t make your best friend uncomfortable. Try holding their gaze for a few seconds longer than usual or gently teasing your friend to see how they react. Be aware that your best friend may view your flirting as you just being nice, so don’t base your judgment of whether or not they like you on just this. If your best friend often tells you about who they currently like or want to date, this is a sign that they’re not thinking about you romantically. See if your best friend brings up crushes around you, or ask them who they’re currently crushing on to be more direct. You might ask them, "Do you have a crush on anyone?" when you two are talking about your friends' crushes or relationships. These could be things like a hand on your arm when you two are talking or even an extra long hug. Similarly, use playful touches to see if your best friend might be interested in you by giving them a casual back rub or throwing your arm around their waist as you’re walking. Pay attention to how your best friend responds if you give a playful touch. If they seem uncomfortable or pull back, this likely means they’re not interested. your best friend to hint that you like them. Tell your best friend things you like about them that you wouldn’t normally share. For example, you might tell your best friend how great they look in an outfit or how impressed you are with their academic abilities. You might compliment your friend by saying, “I love watching you play soccer, you just have so much talent!” or “That shirt really brings out the color in your eyes.” If you and your best friend have another friend that you’re both close to, this friend may know how your best friend feels about you. Consider talking to your mutual friend about how you’re feeling and see what they think about you telling your best friend that you really like them. Know that the mutual friend might tell your best friend what you talked about, so be clear when you’re talking to your...

There are lots of ways to make a lip scrub or lip balm at home. Some require only a few ingredients that you likely already have at home, such as honey and sugar. Others require more specialized ingredients, such as cinnamon essential oil. Choose a scrub or balm that is most convenient for you; you do not have to make all of the scrubs and balms in this section. In a small dish, combine 2 teaspoons of honey with 1 teaspoon of sugar. Massage the scrub into your lips using small, circular motions for 1 minute. Let the scrub sit on your lips for 3 minutes, then wash it off. For extra moisture, apply some lip balm. The honey will help moisturize your lips and fill out any creases, while the sugar will scrub away any dead skin cells and flakes. In a small bowl, combine 1 tablespoon of olive oil with 1 tablespoon of brown sugar. Stir in 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon. Massage the scrub onto your lips, then wait 5 to 10 minutes. Wash the scrub off afterwards. If you can't find olive oil, or if you'd like something more moisturizing, try coconut oil instead. In a small dish, combine 2 teaspoons of sugar with 1 teaspoon of honey. Add 1 teaspoon of almond oil and a dash of ground cinnamon. Stir well, then massage the scrub onto your lips for 1 minute. Wait 3 minutes, then wash the scrub off.  The honey and oil will help moisturize your lips, while the cinnamon will help plump them. The sugar will help scrub away any flakes. You don't need to use lip balm after this scrub, but you can if you want to. If you can't find almond oil, try coconut oil; it is also very moisturizing. In a small dish, combine 1 tablespoon of brown sugar with 1 teaspoon of honey and 1 teaspoon of coconut oil or olive oil. Stir in ½ teaspoon of ground cinnamon, then transfer it to a jar. To use the scrub: massage a small amount onto your lips, and let it sit for 3 to 5 minutes, then wash it off.  For extra flavor, add ½ teaspoon of vanilla extract. Store the jar in a cool place, and use the scrub within one week. No matter which type of balm you...

There are many advantages to publishing your book as an e-book, but there are some disadvantages as well. Before you choose this method of self-publication, be aware of the advantages and disadvantages. They include:   Advantages:  Expenses. Publishing an e-book won't cost much more than it will to write it. Potential for serious revenue. If your book becomes an e-book bestseller, you have the potential to make a lot of money. Some direct publishing vendors allow authors to keep up to 60 or even 70 percent of the revenue, so that could add up to a lot of money. However, this rarely happens, in spite of what you may have read about e-book incomes.    Disadvantages: No advertising. You'll have to do all the marketing yourself. If you have a good Twitter, Google+ and Facebook following though, this can be something you can get started fairly easily. Competitive pricing. Some e-books are sold for less than a dollar, so you will have to sell a lot of copies to make revenue. No physical copy. You won't have the satisfaction of holding your published book in your hands, or of having a few copies around to show to people. That said, there is nothing stopping you from getting a few copies printed for posterity. Before you reach out to a vendor, work out a few of the details of the book. Here are a few things you'll want to have figured out before you moved to the next stage of the publication process:   Create a cover. You can create the cover of your book of poetry yourself, or you can hire someone to do it for you or ask for the help of a design-savvy friend. Set a price. A good price range for one copy for your book is $2.99-$9.99. If your book is cheaper, more people will be encouraged to buy it, but if it's more expensive, you may have less buyers but will make more revenue.  Decide whether or not to enable Digital Rights Management (DRM). When you upload your book to different online retailers, you'll have to decide whether or not to enable DRM. Enabling DRM makes piracy less likely, but it also makes it harder...

There are many circumstances that can cause a dog to become dehydrated, but the most obvious and easy to control is your dog's access to water.  If the dog drinks all of its water, or its water bowl gets knocked over and it is left without a refill for a long period of time, this can result in dehydration. Make sure your dog has ample water, especially on hot days.  Dehydration can occur quickly, sometimes within an hour or so depending on the temperature. Even if your dog has access to water, it will become dehydrated if it doesn't drink it often enough. Keep an eye on your dog to make sure it visits the water bowl frequently.  For example, an older dog that suffers from arthritis and is too sore to get up and drink when it is thirsty is at risk of becoming dehydrated.  The problem is made worse if the dog has other health problems such as diabetes or renal disease because its body will tend to produce a lot of urine. A dog with these problems will lose fluid at a faster rate than a healthy animal. This form of dehydration is chronic, which means it develops slowly over several days and is likely to reoccur.  Likewise, if a dog is ill and stops eating and drinking  due to a lack of appetite, it is at risk of dehydration. Watery feces contains a lot of fluid, which means more rapid loss of water, and thus an increased risk of dehydration. If the dog is drinking enough, the risk of dehydration is reduced. A dog without access to water or with no desire to drink, however, can become dehydrated very quickly if suffering from diarrhea. Vomiting can be a serious problem because the dog is unable to retain any water it drinks. Closely watch a dog that is vomiting and contact the veterinarian if you suspect he is dehydrated or if the condition occurs often.

There are many commercially available eye washes that are ideal for removing objects from your eye. But if you don't have one on hand, you can make your own. The base of the mixture is salt and clean water.  Boil some water. Let it reach a full rolling boil and hold it at that temperature for one minute. Then, add one teaspoon of ordinary table salt for each cup of water. If possible, it's better to use sterile, purified water rather than ordinary tap water. Tap water can contain more bacteria and additives than sterile water. The goal of an improvised eye wash is to mimic the chemical composition of tears. The closer your solution is to the natural salt concentration (salinity) of your tears, the lesser the shock to your eyes. Tears are usually less than 1% salt by weight. Stir your mixture with a clean spoon to ensure the salt that you've added is well-dissolved. Stir until you no longer see solid salt grains at the bottom of the pot. Since the water is boiling and you've added a relatively small amount of salt, it shouldn't take much stirring to dissolve it completely. Place your solution in a covered container and allow it to cool. When the solution reaches room temperature (or lower) it's ready for use.  Never, ever use an eyewash that's still hot. You can seriously injure or even blind yourself by burning your eyes with hot water. Cover the solution while it's cooling to ensure no new contaminants can get in. Keeping the solution cool can give it a refreshing effect when you use it. But, don't use an ice-cold eye wash or one less than 60°F (15.6 °C). It can be painful and even slightly damaging to your eyes. Even if you take extra care to keep your solution clean, be sure to throw it out after a day or two. Bacteria can be re-introduced to a solution after boiling.

There are many container options that you can choose from to grow mosquito larvae. Larger containers will permit you to grow more larvae, but remember that the larvae you don’t harvest will eventually hatch into mosquitos in your yard. Make sure to use a new or clean food grade container. Do not use one that has held paint, tar, or other chemicals as the chemicals will poison the algae or larva.  A five-gallon bucket is an excellent choice for your water source, but if you have a large number of fish you intend to feed, you may want to go with something as large a 50-gallon barrel. A one-quart container can provide you with enough mosquito larvae to feed most hobbyist’s fish. . Clean water often lacks the nutrients mosquito larvae need to survive. If you allow rain water to fill your bucket or other container it will create an environment that can more easily sustain the larvae you hope to breed. You may not want to wait long enough for your bucket or container to fill with rain water. If you choose to use tap water, it's important that you treat the water to make it safe for mosquito larvae, otherwise the chlorine may prevent algae growth, which is the larvae’s primary food source.  Leave debris that falls into the water. It will add to the bacterial growth mosquito larvae will feed off of. Treat the tap water with a dechlorinator that will neutralize the chlorine content that may be present in your tap water. Dechlorinator kits can be purchased at most pet or aquarium stores. Mosquitos thrive in dirty, shaded water sources. Avoid placing the bucket in direct sunlight, as the water may become too warm for larvae to survive on hot days. You may spill some water while moving the bucket, but it does not have to be full to work.  Place the bucket under an overhang or dense tree growth to keep it shaded from the sun. It’s okay if sunlight reaches the bucket at times, but position it so it doesn not receive direct sunlight for too much of the day. There are very few retailers that sell mosquito larvae, so you will...

There are many different bronzing lotions to choose from. Choosing a bronzing lotion based on your skin type, color, and you desired tan will help you achieve the results you are looking for. Some bronzing lotions allow you get instant results while others take up to a week. Some are longer lasting while other are more temporary. Consult online blogs and websites devoted to bronzing lotion and self-tanners to decide which product is best for you.  If your skin is very light or pale, consider using a gradual bronzing lotion. Gradual bronzing lotions contain amino-acids that produce brown pigments in your skin. The color of gradual bronzing lotions usually peaks around 5 to 7 days after application.  Some bronzing lotions are white and opaque in color, which often means they are more difficult to apply. If you don’t have much experience applying bronzing lotion, choose a bronzing lotion that is tinted so that you can apply it evenly. Thick and coarse hair can get in the way of bronzing lotion and cause a patchy and uneven application. Wax or shave all areas you plan to apply bronzing lotion to. You will most likely not need to shave if you have very fine hair. Bronzing lotions cling to dry and dead skin which can often result in an inconsistent and patchy application. Be sure to exfoliate thoroughly before applying your bronzing lotion for an even and smooth application. Use oil-free exfoliants. Most oils, even natural ones, will prevent the bronzing lotion from being absorbed.

There are many different computer programs that can be used to create a poster. Some programs might already be on your computer, but others you will have to purchase to use. There are also some free online programs you can download to create your poster. Programs to use include the following:   Microsoft Power Point Adobe Illustrator Adobe Photoshop Adobe Indesign Apache OpenOffice Impress Linux LaTex Your poster design should have one central message or idea that it conveys. This focus should appeal to your audience, so spend some time thinking about who you are trying to reach. All of the elements in your poster should reflect your main idea so that your message doesn’t get lost. Your poster should have a layout that is easy on the eyes and makes sense.  There should be a point of focus on your poster which is where the viewer’s eye looks first. This could be a picture or a large font. Your design should be balanced. Try using a grid when you design to make sure items are centered when you want them to be. If you want your point of focus to be off center, having negative space on the other side will keep it balanced. Create a path for the viewer to follow. Use lines, color, font weight, and font size to make your poster flow. Font choice is one of the most important aspects of creating an effective poster. Your main message needs to be able to be seen from far away, so pick a font that will be clear and easy to read.  Different fonts can create different emotions and feelings in viewers, so consider what your focus is to find a font that matches the idea you are trying to convey. Try using two different fonts that compliment or contrast each other to create a unique design. For example, use two modern fonts, two script fonts, or a serif font with a sans-serif font Your poster should be easy to read from at least 5 feet (7.5 meters) away. Make sure your graphics and fonts are large enough to be effective.

There are many different industries in Hawaii that one can find gainful employment in, but you need to have an understanding of what type of work you’re willing to do and any legal restrictions you may encounter.  Medical, legal and government positions are among the highest paying jobs in Hawaii. Food service and transportation are among the lowest paying positions. If you are moving to Hawaii from another country, you will need to obtain a work Visa. If you already have an established career, it makes sense to pursue working within the same field once you reach the Hawaiian Islands.  However, if your current career field isn’t an option, you may need to choose a different line of work.  Tourism is the largest industry in Hawaii and offers many great opportunities for people relocating to the islands. Agriculture also offers many opportunities for employment on most islands. Other career fields common in Hawaii are nursing, education and hospitality. Before you make the move to warmer climates, you should begin your job search by reaching out to any contacts you may have in Hawaii.  If you don’t have any, use professional social media platforms to establish some.  Let friends or old coworkers in Hawaii know that you are looking to relocate and would like to know about any job openings they may be aware of. Use LinkedIn to find employees of companies you’d like to work for in Hawaii and reach out to them.  They may be willing to help. Use LinkedIn and other social media platforms to identify companies that you may be interested in pursuing employment with. Staffing firms and recruiting agencies connect candidates to jobs for a living and can be a great asset for anyone seeking employment.  There are some agencies that even specialize in finding work for people in Hawaii.

There are many different kinds of bratwurst on the market. Traditional German bratwurst is typically named for the region from which it comes. These vary depending on thickness, length, coloring and flavor. Some of the more well-known bratwurst include:  Coburger Bratwurst Fränkische Bratwurst Kulmbacher Bratwurst Nürnberger Rostbratwurst Nordhessische Bratwurst Rote Wurst Thüringer Rostbratwurst Würzburger Bratwurst Butcher shops are great places to buy raw meat. Ask the butcher where the bratwurst came from and the ingredients used to make it. Visit a reputable, clean butcher shop. Make sure the butcher wraps up your bratwurst in butcher paper. Some butchers may be able to special-order certain types of meats. If there is a certain kind of bratwurst you are looking for, you may be able to request it. Most groceries stores sell raw bratwurst. Some are specialty brands that are fairly expensive, while others are more common brands. They may have special flavors, seasonings or stuffings. Pre-cooked bratwurst is readily available at grocery stores and is usually available in packages of 6-8 sausages. This kind may be smoked or otherwise seasoned with spices. Making your own bratwurst can be a great way to customize the ingredients and flavors in your bratwurst. This is a time-consuming process, however, that requires equipment such as a meat grinder and sausage stuffer. In addition, you need sausage casings and room to dry and store the sausages. See the wikiHow article, “Make Sausage.” Plan on at least one brat per person. Many people will likely want second helpings, so buying extra is usually a good idea.

There are many different kinds of painting styles and mediums. Three of the most popular mediums include oil, acrylic, and watercolor painting. Each of these mediums has a different effect on the canvas and conveys a different kind of atmosphere.  Spend some time at your local museum observing these styles. Inquire with museum staff about the method and training that artists you particularly enjoy used. Explore different kinds of painting through art lessons at a community center or school for fine art.

Additionally, you may find out you enjoy a certain style more than you initially thought. Try painting a variety of objects. You might discover that you like watercolors best for landscape painting and oil paints more for portraits. You may consider your style to be of the utmost importance, but in the words of the Dalai Lama, you should "Know the rules well, so you can break them effectively." Color theory will help cultivate your intuition of how different colors work together and the emotions...

There are many different specialized types of therapy, from cognitive behavioral therapy to group therapy, family therapy to journal therapy. Find a therapist best suited to the type of therapy you think will be most useful to you.   Life coaches can also provide consistent long term strategies for self improvement, although some are not trained to deal with more severe types of behavioral or physical abuse. Try cognitive behavioral therapy if you would like help processing traumatic experiences, such as previous abuse, loss of a loved one, or feeling disconnected from others, that might be causing abuse. Try family or group therapy if your abuse is occurring within your relationships with your spouse, children, or siblings. You can also look into support groups. Try looking to Emotions Anonymous to learn how to cope with difficult emotions. Seeking advice from your friends and family can help you gain perspective and support during your time when you are addressing your abusive behaviors. Friends and family can provide essential support toward self-betterment and self-help.  Schedule weekly calls with a friend or family member to check in on your progress in therapy, conversations with those you have abused, or your general well-being. Be sure to seek out those who you feel comfortable being honest with about your abuse. If the abuse you are enacting on others is physical, reach out to domestic abuse help agencies, like the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence, to find out your next best course of action. The NCADV also offers access to support groups and informational resources regarding intervention. Domestic abuse needs immediate attention and may require lawful intervention. Seek out the NCADV or local law enforcement to quickly address physical abuse.

There are many different varieties of concrete blocks used for modern construction. You'll typically use standard 8" units, which will create the bulk of the foundation. Other types you might consider are single and double corner units, which provide a smooth square or rounded corner.  Then you also have jamb blocks used for creating a doorway.  Other special blocks are available for nearly every requirement you can think of. Sash blocks can be used when you want to create casement windows with an opening. Put header blocks at the top of a wall if you need to create space for roof supports or other construction supports. You can buy specialty blocks or even customize your building blocks to add a personal touch to your project. Footing is the concrete base that is used as the base’s structure. You can either use dry footing that requires you to mix it with water to activate, or purchase prepared footing.

There are many diseases or conditions that can manifest as a rash or irritation on your face, such as mild allergic reactions, autoimmune disorders (psoriasis), acne outbreaks, severe sunburn, eczema, rosacea,  infections, vitamin deficiency or contact dermatitis. Your family doctor will be able to rule out anything serious, but remember they are not skin specialists, so you'll likely need to see a more specialized health professional to get the correct diagnosis.  Ask your doctor if skin irritation is a common side effect of any medications you may be taking. Ask your doctor for a blood test to see if you're too low in vitamin B12 and other B vitamins. A lack of some B vitamins is linked to skin problems. Dermatologists are skin specialists who can correctly diagnose skin problems and recommend a variety of treatments such as medicinal creams, acne medications, anti-inflammatories, micro-abrasion or laser therapy.  Your dermatologist will want to know if skin conditions are common among your family members because genetics play a role with many skin diseases, such as psoriasis. Aside from sunburn, getting too much sun is a common trigger for many skin conditions, especially rosacea.  Estheticians, herbalists, nutritionists, naturopaths and chiropractors may also be good sources of information regarding skin conditions and natural treatments, but it's best to see a medical doctor first. A doctor who specializes in diagnosing allergies is called an allergist. Allergic reactions range from mild to life-threatening, but they typically manifest quickly — within seconds to hours.  A severe rash on the face that develops quickly is likely hives. If you experience breathing problems, nasal congestion or swelling of the lips and tongue, you need to call 911 or emergency services immediately, as this indicates anaphylaxis, a life-threatening emergency. Food allergies are one of the most common allergies to affect the face. Common food allergies include nuts (peanuts), shellfish (shrimp), eggs, cow's milk, fish, wheat, and soy.

There are many doctors that oppose the use of baby walkers and recommend that the parents do not use these products with their children. Most of their opposition is due to the injury risks that are involved, but there can also be disadvantages in terms of the physical development of the baby. One disadvantage of using a baby walker is the possibility of the baby becoming dependent on the support it gives when they start to fall. As a result, the baby might not feel secure enough to stand and walk when they are not in the baby walker. This could delay the baby’s ability to walk independently. In fact, it is possible that using a baby walker could cause the baby’s legs to strengthen more slowly, as they don not need to support the baby's full weight when in a walker. There is the possibility of the walker actually running over the baby’s feet. The baby’s feet can also get entangled on various parts of some walkers. This could result in bruises, abrasions, and possibly even broken bones if the walker continues to move while the feet are caught. An even more likely cause of injury is the wheels getting stuck, which causes the baby walker to stop moving. If the baby tries to force the baby walker to move, it could tip over and injure the baby. One of the worst possible incidences that might occur is if the baby walker is used near steps or some other raised surface. Babies in walkers are very quick and could tumble down the stairs or off the raised surface in an instant. This could cause very serious injuries.

There are many excellent exercises you can do at home without having to spend lots of money on gym equipment or club memberships. Always make sure to start slowly and work your way to longer sets and more repetitions of an exercise; you won't have a good workout if you hurt yourself! Find a pull-up bar and stand underneath it, grabbing the bar with both hands. Your palms should be facing towards you. Slowly pull yourself up until your chin is even with the bar then lower yourself back down, repeating ten times. Don't touch the floor or jump otherwise the exercise won't be as effective. If you have trouble completing the set try standing on a chair and lightly supporting yourself with your legs as you do the exercise. Make sure the chin-up bar is properly installed or it will fall and you'll hurt yourself! Elevate your feet on a chair, exercise ball, or box and do ten pushups, or a set. Make sure to keep your back and your legs straight or you may injure yourself. Find a bench and sit on it with your palms against the bench on either side of your torso and your legs extended. Slowly lower yourself off the bench using your arms. Straighten your arms, lifting your entire body, and lower yourself back down by bending your arms. Don't touch the ground or use your legs to help you complete the exercise or it will be less effective.

There are many factors that occur within the family unit that can increase the likelihood of a young person becoming violent. If you recognize these risk factors within your own family, you must work to change them. When you recognize these risk factors in another family, understand that the young people in that household may benefit from additional support, guidance, or therapy to prevent violent outcomes. These factors can include:   Highly authoritarian child-rearing attitudes Lax, harsh, or very inconsistent boundaries and disciplinary practices Low educational and income levels of parents Parental substance abuse and criminality Create an atmosphere of open and honest communication with your children or students. Give them the space to work out their views, and encourage them to express their feelings, desires, hopes, and dreams. Spend time talking about interpersonal relationships and ask them to express the expectations they have for the relationships in their lives. Although there is never a simple or clear-cut answer for why an individual becomes violent, most violent actions (by both children and adults) occur for one or more of the following reasons. By better understanding these, you may be better equipped to talk down a violent person, or better yet, to stop violence before it starts.  Expression: Many people use violence to express feelings of anger or frustration. Manipulation: Violence is often used to control others. Retaliation: Violence comes into play when someone wants to retaliate against someone who has hurt them, or to seek some kind of revenge. One crucial element to preventing school violence is simply to pay attention (which is far easier said than done). Even older kids need important and focused face-time with their parents and teachers, even if they don’t seem to desire or enjoy it. Just showing up for your children or students and investing time in getting to know their likes and dislikes can go far in reducing tendencies toward school violence. Children thrive when they...

There are many forms of garlic available, such as garlic seasoning, garlic powder, and garlic salt. However, it is best taken in its natural form to release alliin that helps fight infections. Add 2-4 grams of fresh, minced garlic cloves to spice up your meals.  Sprinkle chopped garlic over spaghetti, add minced garlic to baked chicken, or top roasted asparagus with it. Each clove is approximately 1 gram. You can also cook garlic in olive oil, but to gain the most benefits of alliin, it is better to eat it raw. If you do want to use cooked garlic, lightly brown it over low heat so you don’t destroy its active compounds. If you don’t mind the bitterness, you can also eat the garlic cloves raw. To make it more edible, crush the garlic into a spoonful of honey or olive oil. When taken on a daily basis, this helps strengthen your immune system to reduce the likelihood of you catching and speeds up recovery. Too much garlic may cause bad breath and low blood pressure, so limit your intake to 2-4 cloves of garlic a day. Look for garlic extract in liquid or capsule form. Then, take your supplement as directed on the label. On average, take .25 teaspoons (1.2 mL) of liquid aged garlic extract once daily to get the daily recommended amount of alliin for adults. Garlic supplements can be taken on a daily basis.  Always check with your doctor before taking any supplements. You can also find freeze-dried garlic supplements. Garlic supplements are not considered a complete treatment for colds and may be taken together with medication recommended by your doctor. The suggested serving of garlic extract contains the same amount of alliin as two 200mg capsules of garlic supplements, which are taken three times daily. Some supplements contain dairy or gluten that can cause allergic reactions in some people. If you are allergic to these substances, consult your doctor for a recommended dosage or prescription for your individual needs.

There are many free survey sites, and though they come with limitations, they will work well for the majority of surveys. SurveyMonkey, TypeForm, Survey Gizmo, and many other sites offer free surveys. However, they do have restrictions, including:  Limited number of questions, usually 10-15. Limited number of respondents allowed, usually 100-200. Simple customization options or question types.  Google Forms is entirely free, and has none of the prior restrictions. It is, however, a bit more difficult to use for the uninitiated. If you plan on reaching a wide audience, sending out a ton surveys, or asking more than 15 questions, you should get professional survey programs. Luckily, they are cheap and easy to use . You'll need to purchase a subscription (usually $20-25/month) to a site like SurveyMonkey, Client Heartbeat, and Survey Planet. Almost all these sites have free versions as well, so you can test them out beforehand. While features vary from service to service, paid sites generally allow:  Unlimited questions and respondents. Statistical breakdowns of answers, often exportable to programs like Excel. Ability to add pictures and logos to questions. You will need to create a username and password as well as fill in the pertinent information. Many of these companies allow you to make "business accounts" as well. If you need to share the information and surveys with coworkers, choose a generic username and password. Almost all survey sites allow you use a template, designed specifically for "customer service," "feedback," "academic survey," or many other easy options. If you've never made a survey before, these could be good choices to get a hang of the structure and language. Let the reader know why you are asking questions, and what you plan on doing with the information. Assure them that their answers will be anonymous. People are much more likely to provide information if they know what their input will be helping fix or improve. Be sure to thank them for helping. This may seem small, but it is a nice...

There are many herbicides you might use, though you should be aware this plant is resistant to many common treatments. Regular herbicides used for dandelion control won't likely be strong enough to kill creeping charlie.  Three way herbicides, often called "trimec herbicides," should be prioritized, as the special compounds in these are effective at eliminating creeping charlie.  Some herbicides may affect other plants around the creeping charlie. You should consult the label of your herbicide to understand the full effects before administering it. Some herbicides leave behind residue for a period of time after its application that can be harmful to children or animals. In these cases, you should block off the area and/or keep an eye around children and pets until the next rainfall or until your label indicates the herbicide has diminished to safe levels. This is the ideal time for chemical treatment of creeping charlie. At this time of year, the plant begins storing nutrient in the stem and root system for the winter. This means your herbicide treatment will have a greater effect on the plant. When using a herbicidal treatment, more is not always better. Follow the directions that came with your herbicide for best results. Treating creeping charlie in the spring with herbicide is a useful follow-up to fall treatments, though spring applications won't be as effective. A follow-up spring application is best suited to severe or especially stubborn cases. If you have a plot that is susceptible to creeping charlie, or if this plant is common in your area, even if you kill or remove it completely it'll likely spring up again from another source. In this situation, you'll likely have to apply herbicide yearly to your lawn to ensure the plant doesn't come back.  You can also make your lawn less hospitable for creeping charlie by creating a bright sunlight environment by pruning shade casting branches. A thick cover of grass can also make your lawn less hospitable for creeping charlie. By planting grass that grows...
