Let it cool on the flat surface until you can touch it lightly. Test it with your finger. It should be slightly firm but malleable. Try to do this in one swift motion so it doesn’t stretch Turn the cutting board 90 degrees and score it in the opposite direction every one-half inch (1.3cm). This will make rectangular Jolly Rancher candies. Wrap each candy in wax paper or cellophane while it is still warm. Try to keep the candy separated and airtight so that it doesn’t absorb too much moisture from the air.

Let the oil warm up over medium heat as you prepare the fish. Pan-frying is a popular way to cook lake trout. Other common cooking methods include smoking and grilling. Lake trout can be baked, as well, but that method is not quite as typical for lake trout. Mix these five ingredients in a shallow bowl or dish until thoroughly combined.  For a smokier taste, you could used bacon-flavored crackers instead of standard saltine crackers. For a less potent garlic taste, reduce the amount of garlic salt to 1/4 tsp (1.25 ml). Beat the eggs and milk in another shallow bowl with a whisk.  In order to serve as an effective egg wash, the eggs and milk must be combined well. The sides of the dish must be high enough to prevent the egg wash from dripping out. The bowl should have a wide mouth, though, so that it is easy enough for you to dunk the fish in it. Dunk each fish fillet into the egg mixture.  Hold the fillet over the bowl of egg wash for 30 seconds or so. Let the excess egg drip off. If the fillets feel slimy or sticky, rinse them in cold water and pat dry with clean paper towels before dunking them in the egg wash. After coating all sides of the lake trout in egg, roll the fish in the crumb mixture to coat all sides.  Each fillet must be rolled in the crumb mixture gently. Otherwise, it could break apart. Lightly shake each fillet over the bowl of crumbs once you coat it. The excess crumbs should fall off. Place the trout fillets in the hot oil and turn the heat up to medium-high. Fry until crispy and opaque on all sides.  Turn the fish once during the cooking process using a spatula. The fish must be flipped carefully in order to prevent it from flaking apart. Once done, the fish should flake apart easily with a fork. The flesh should also be easy to remove from the bones, if you started with fillets that still have bones in them. Remove the trout from the frying pan and transfer to a serving plate. If desired, serve with lemon slices, chives, and parsley.

Let the shorter layers of your hair hang loose, creating a "short" look, while the bulk of your longer hair is pulled back and out of the way. From the front, it will look like you have a shorter cut. The ponytail can either be left as it is or rolled up and pinned against the back of your head.  Putting your hair in a bun is also a great way to disguise length. If all your hair is wrapped up, nobody will know how long it is.  You can also just tie long hair into a half-bun, leaving some strands hanging loose. Sweep the extra loose hair onto your shoulders and out of the way.  This usually looks best if you have a layered cut to begin with. Talk to your stylist about a layered cut if necessary. If you braid the hair tightly, it will appear shorter than if it was just hanging down your back. There are a variety of styles of braids such as the regular three-strand braid, fish braid and French braid. If you're going for a looser look but want it to still seem shorter, leave some pieces out in the front near your face. If you have protective braids, like micro braids, you can make your hair appear even shorter by styling these braids in ponytails, buns, and more. Place a headband around your head with the back of the band pushed down near the top of your neck. Starting just behind the ear, roll your hair under and tuck your hair into the band. Secure it with a few bobby pins. Keep tucking until you reach the other ear. Use hairspray to hold it in place. Try curling your hair with foam rollers, bobby pins, fabric, or whatever tools you want to use. Do it while the hair is wet and use conditioner, setting lotion, hair spray or any other hair products that set and hold curls. If you can, let your curls set in rollers overnight so your hair completely dries without the use of your hair dryer. If you want really short, bouncy curls, let your hair dry naturally. When you let your hair air dry, it dries at a slower rate and your finished hairstyle turns out with much more defined curls that have a tighter hold, which...

Let them engage the conversation first. This sidesteps any feelings that you may be attacking their belief system with an agenda. Remain calm, firm, and reasonable. A common stereotype of atheists is that they are angry and hostile.  Explain why you are an atheist and what that means to you. The goal of conversation is to wipe away preconceived notions about one another’s beliefs. For example, you could say: “I believe that people have the ability to identify and choose right from wrong by experiencing life on their own.” You might also say: “People are wildly complex and interesting – I believe they can make mistakes, but also learn from them, without needing to be policed.” Why do they hold a particular belief? Sometimes pointing out a single fallacy every now and then is sufficient. Ask them to explain something about their religion you don't understand to help you to think about deeper meaning.  You might ask your friend: “How can God allow some in the world to starve and others to eat?” You might also ask: “I’m interested in what Christians think of the fact that the Bible was written by several individuals. Is it difficult to trust in so many differing accounts?” Suggest your friend start questioning everyday occurrences.  Questioning authenticates truth and can become a habit that help change thinking. Show that atheism has not impacted your life in a negative way. If they bring up their belief that God had a hand in an event in their life, it is okay to point out other factors that helped them, such as their own actions or a professional's skills. For example, getting accepted into college might feel like a divine gift, but it was an individual's hard work that paved the way. You might tell them: “Congratulations! All of that studying really paid off.” Both sides of any debate will often create incorrect argumentation and rely on rhetoric without even noticing. Common informal fallacies in debate include circular reasoning, which begins and ends an argument with the same idea. For example, “The Bible...

Let them know they are loved. Spend time with them and ask about their feelings.  When children know they are cared for, they will realize their lives and actions have value, strive to meet your expectations, and lead more disciplined lives.  Ask your child to reflect on their recent successes or failures. Encourage them in their interests and hobbies. Express your belief that they can succeed if they try. Show gratitude that they are in your life. Tell them directly that you love them. Extra-curricular activities teach valuable skills and life lessons. Sports, dance, gymnastics, karate, music lessons, hiking or mountaineering clubs – all can instill discipline through repetitive practice, following rules and patterns, and adhering to a schedule. A variety of hobbies will inculcate a strong sense of discipline in your child. Try to understand your child’s point of view.  For instance, if they want to stay up late, admit that it would be fun to stay up later and watch another show, read another chapter, etc. Tell them that when you were a child, you wanted to stay up late at night as well. Draw comparisons to your life today, too.  For instance, you might share that you often have responsibilities at work that keep you from doing fun things, but which are necessary so that you can provide for your family. When children feel their perspective is understood and they have been listened to, they will be more willing to comply. Help your child see the consequences of doing what they want to do. If they express the desire to stay up later, remind them they have to wake up early tomorrow.  Ask how they think they would feel if they didn’t get a good night’s sleep and they will (hopefully) realize you are looking out for their best interests. Reading can help kids learn lessons which they can apply to their own lives. After reading about a disciplined, responsible character, engage your child in a dialogue about the reactions, thoughts, and feelings they had when reading the book. This helps them identify with the...

Let your child know when he or she is displaying a great attitude.  Praise your child's behavior; rather than saying "good boy," for example, compliment him on the great way he played with his younger brother.  No one can be "good" all the time, but praise for a specific action helps your child recognize that you're noticing his efforts.  Vary your praise.  Consider leaving your child a note, or complimenting her on different aspects of her behavior. Don't overdo it.  Offer praise for genuine effort and respond to your child's cues -- if she is excited about her hard work or success, reinforce that sense of self-worth with words of praise. Teach your child to be comfortable giving and receiving compliments. Avoid using words of praise to promote a hidden agenda.  Children are smart.  "I like your new wardrobe" will easily be re-interpreted as "thank goodness you've moved on from that style I didn't care for." When you see evidence of poor attitudes -- or good attitudes -- in everyday life, point these out to your child.  They'll absorb the lessons of seeing someone throw a fit (and look ridiculous!) or politely serve a table (and perhaps receive a tip for their efforts). Children's books can be a great way to provide younger children with examples of how (and how not) to behave. Compensating for your child's poor attitude by taking on tasks she should be doing does her no favors.  Children develop a sense of self-worth through learning responsibility for their actions and becoming competent at the basic tasks of life.  Use praise and other motivators to provide your child with positive reinforcement when he takes on responsibility. Younger children may benefit from a rewards chart.  Connect rewards to the behavior itself.  A child working on not throwing a fit when asked to take a bath, for example, might earn a fluffy new towel set in his favorite color. Beware of excessive rewards.  Your ultimate goal is to instill self-discipline.  Use praise and encouragement to help your child understand that rewards are...

Let your idea of excelling at life evolve as you do.  Shaping your life into an experience you feel is excellent may take some trial and error. You may think you want to achieve something, such as a high-powered career as an attorney who works 80 hours a week. But what happens when you decide you want to have a family? You might find that as your values change, your goals will change to reflect those values. For example, maybe you wanted to be a veterinarian. But once you investigated the schooling and medical skills required, you discovered that you don’t really want to work with animals in that way.  Using your journal, start to explore other careers that involve working with animals.  Maybe you want to make natural pet treats, work at a human society, be a dog trainer, or foster animals in your home.  Learning how to excel at life means getting to know yourself in a very authentic way and being flexible in achieving your goals. Don’t limit yourself in making changes that you feel will match your definition of excellence in life.  However, one of the biggest factors of success in living a fulfilling life is resilience. Maybe you want to plan a movie night for your family, but no one can agree on a movie, or family members make other plans. Basically, your goal for that day did not work out. Maybe your plan can be adjusted to asking people in your family what they would like to do to spend more time with you.  Maybe you need to organize individual time with everyone instead of planning group activities.  Don’t give up on your goals. Instead, reinvent, redesign, and always go back to the drawing board.  Be resilient and stay focused on your goal to spend more quality time with your family. Make a list of small things you can excel in every day. This will help you feel like you’re moving towards excellence.  Excelling at life comes down to appreciating yourself enough to know you deserve a fulfilling life.  Besides career, money, family, there is also YOU! Excelling at life could mean trying to laugh more,...

Let your oven heat up completely while you finish preparing the moose steaks. The size of the steak chunks is up to you. Aim for a thickness of about 1 in (2.5 cm) so all the pieces cook through evenly. Measure out 1/4 cup (30 g) of cornstarch, 1 tablespoon (14.3 g) of ground mustard, 1 teaspoon (4 g) of salt, and 1/2 teaspoon (2 g) of pepper and add them to a medium-sized bowl. Mix them together thoroughly until the ingredients are fully incorporated. Separate the cornstarch mixture into 2 equal portions. Place your moose steaks on a strong, flat surface. Use your hands to rub half of the cornstarch mixture evenly all over the meat pieces. Pound the pieces until the cornstarch mixture is evenly dispersed. Add the other half of the cornstarch mixture and pound the meat with the mallet for several more minutes. Using a meat mallet will tenderize the steaks, since moose meat is notoriously tough. Measure out 2 US tbsp (30 ml) of vegetable oil. Add it to a large saute pan and place it on a burner. Turn the heat to medium-high. Let the oil heat up until it shimmers. Carefully add the steak pieces to the saute pan. Stir them around continuously until the pieces are browned on all sides.  If your saute pan is on the small side, you may have to brown the moose meat in batches. Remove the meat from the heat once it’s browned. Use tongs to carefully move the browned meat into a large baking dish. Spread the moose meat evenly over the bottom of the dish. Try not to allow the meat pieces to overlap much, but a little is okay. Pour 1 can (14-1/2 ounces) of diced tomatoes over the meat. Thinly slice 1 medium-sized onion and dice 1 medium-sized carrot. Sprinkle the diced veggies evenly over the meat and tomatoes in the baking dish. You don’t need to drain the liquid from the can of tomatoes first. You don’t need to stir the dish during this time. After 1.5 hours, check pull out the steak, lift the aluminum foil, and make sure the meat if fork-tender before taking it out. If the meat isn’t tender yet, put the dish back into...

Let your support system know that you’ll be there for them when they need you. Ask what they need the most help with in their lives, and follow through if they make a request. Sometimes people avoid asking for help simply because they don’t want to inconvenience others. If your loved ones say they don’t need anything, check in with them every once in a while, so they know your offer of support is genuine. Spend time with the people in your support system regularly, and be sensitive to what your friends and family are going through. If you think a loved one could use a hug or some help around the house, don’t wait for them to ask – reach out and offer your support. For instance, if your friend has been acting sad lately, you could take them out for coffee and ask if everything is okay. To keep your relationships healthy, talk with your friends and family about what kind of help you and they are comfortable giving and receiving. Establishing your expectations and needs will prevent misunderstandings later and help everyone feel respected.  For example, you might refuse to borrow money from family members because you don't want to complicate your relationships. You might tell a loved one who offers, "I have a rule about not accepting money from family. I really appreciate the gesture, but I can't accept this." By communicating and standing firm in your own boundaries, you give your loved ones a model for which they can build their own.

Let's face it—turning a guy on is easy, and it doesn't take us to tell you that! But if you're in the mood, and you want him to really please you, there are things you can do to really drive him crazy. He'll be giving you candy and compliments, and opening doors for you, buying you dinners and movies, and that's all part of what guys do. If you want him to keep doing that after you've been dating for a year or two, let it be know that you appreciate that sort of thing—or that you don't! Pretending is a sure way to kill any romance, if not in the short term, certainly in the long term. But for the sake of this article, let's assume you do. If he knows you like it, and you reward him with a kiss or a squeeze in the right place now and then, he'll keep it going. A little cleavage goes a long way. A lot of cleavage goes even further. Dressing provocatively will challenge him to keep his eyes raised up and looking into yours, will really help keep him in the zone, and can provide for some teasing fun as well. Be suggestive, maybe in the way you lick your spoon, maybe by simply saying you think he's hot. Again, guys are fairly primal, and it doesn't take a lot to arouse them. Just remember: he wants to be in control, but you get to say how much control he has. It's not a turn on at all to start kissing somebody who's insecure or not sure they are doing the "right thing." If turning him on is the goal, then show that. Don't hide your desires behind a wall of political or social correctness. Once he makes the first move, kiss him back exactly how you want him to kiss you. If you want hard, passionate kisses, kiss him hungrily. If you want little love pecks—at least to start—give them to him, and gently rebuff any attempts at harder kissing until you're ready for that. He likes to know that he's not the only one who is going for the gold. You don't need to knock him down and tear his clothes off—yet—but take the lead in the kissing department, and start exploring his body. If he works out, appreciate his physique....

Let's get this straight: you should not stop enjoying your life or doing the things you love to do because of fear that you're going to be raped and assaulted. If you love running with your iPod in, then fine, but be extra careful and look around your surroundings at all times, trying to run near where the people are. If you're walking in a dark parking garage or parking lot, then stay focused on where you need to go instead of playing around with your iPod or your iPhone. Attackers look for the weakest victims. If they see that you are highly vigilant and walking with purpose, they will be less likely to attack you than if you're texting and not looking where you're going, or rocking out to your new favorite song on your iPod. If you feel uneasy or unsure in any way, it is in your best interest to get away and get help. Use your instincts and be aware of your freeze instinct. If you're in a situation where you're alone and suddenly run into or see someone else who just makes you feel unsafe, then change action as quickly as possible. If you're really getting the sense that you're unsafe, then it's important to stay calm, move quickly, and to go to the place where you're the most likely to find other people. If you're walking down a dark street and have the feeling that the person behind you is following you, cross the street in a diagonal and see if he/she does the same. If so, then walk towards the middle of the street (but not so much that you can get hit by a car) so that you're more likely to be seen by an oncoming car that could help you and scare away the potential attacker. Sure, a lot of people will tell you that rapists go for people with long hair or ponytails because they are easier to grab onto. Does this mean you should rock the short-haired bob so people are less likely rape you? Of course not. (Unless you want short hair, of course.) Don't let a potential rapist deter you from looking how you want to look, and don't ever blame yourself for attracting the wrong kind of person. Okay, so many...

Let's keep this as simple as possible. Getting rid of those saddlebags is not rocket science -- they're just excess fat stores that your body has unfortunately decided to hold onto in a rather inconvenient place. The first thing that needs to go? The junk food. It's full of empty calories, bad fats, and very few nutrients. So cut it out! Anything fried or packaged goes on the no-no list. And baked goods and sweets, too. If it's not a good source of protein, fiber, vitamins, good carbs or fats, it doesn't qualify. This means you'll be going fresh -- and doing some cooking! It's impossible to completely avoid these and it's illogical to say something is completely off-limits. So instead of thinking to yourself,  "I can't have these," think of it as a treat to have every once in a while. You should choose whole, complex carbs that contain plenty of fiber, such as brown rice, whole wheat products, quinoa, oats, and the ones in veggies. These will keep you fuller for longer. White or processed carbs on the other hand can be stored as fat if not used for energy right away. Avoid white rice, white bread, cookies, cakes, and pastries. Need some tips? Instead of bread, use eggplant slices or a lettuce wrap. When you go out to restaurants, say you don't need that basket of bread. Get brown rice instead of white, and substitute your spaghetti for whole wheat pasta, quinoa, chickpeas, or thinly sliced vegetables like peppers. You've probably heard that you should eat the rainbow and it's true. The more color you eat, the better. How do you do that? Fruits and veggies! They are nutrient dense -- packed with tons of vitamins and minerals and don't have a lot of calories. You could eat pounds and pounds of salad and be okay -- imagine eating pounds and pounds of fried chicken!  Green, leafy vegetables are especially good for you. Spinach, kale, lettuce, Brussels sprouts, cabbage, and broccoli? Great choices. Carrots, onions, peppers, squash -- the more colorful veggies -- are good, too. Blueberries, oranges, bananas,...

Let's say we're in a gambling mood but all we have to play with is one simple six-sided die. In this case, we'll just wager bets on what number the die will show after we roll it. Let's say we bet that we'll roll either a one or a two. In this case, there's two possibilities where we win - if the dice shows a two, we win, and if the dice shows a one, we also win. Thus, there are  two  favorable outcomes. In a game of chance, there's always a chance that you won't win. If we bet that we'll roll either a one or a two, that means we'll lose if we roll a three, four, five, or six. Since there are four ways that we can lose, that means that there are  four  unfavorable outcomes.  Another way to think of this is as the  Number of total outcomes  minus  the number of favorable outcomes.  When rolling a die, there are a total of six possible outcomes - one for each number on the die. In our example, then, we would subtract  two (the number of desired outcomes) from six.  6 - 2 = 4 unfavorable outcomes.  Similarly, you may subtract the number of unfavorable outcomes from the total number of outcomes to find the number of favorable outcomes. Generally, odds are expressed as the  ratio of favorable outcomes to unfavorable outcomes,  often using a colon. In our example, our odds of success would be  2 : 4  - two chances that we'll win versus four chances that we'll lose. Like a fraction, this can be simplified to  1 : 2  by dividing both terms by the common multiple of 2. This ratio is written (in words) as "one to two odds." You may choose to represent this ratio as a fraction. In this case, our odds are  2/4, simplified as  1/2.  Note - 1/2 odds don't mean we have a one-half (50%) chance of winning. In fact, we have a one-third chance of winning. Remember when expressing odds that odds are a ratio of favorable outcomes to unfavorable outcomes -  not  a numerical measurement of how likely we are to win. The 1 : 2 odds we just calculated are the  odds in favor  of us winning. What if we want to know the odds of losing,...

Let's say you're dividing the fraction 1/2 by 18/20. Now, find the reciprocal of 18/20 which is 20/18 and change the division sign to a multiplication sign. So, 1/2 ÷ 18/20 = 1/2 x 20/18. Now, do the same thing you would do to multiply. If you multiply the numerators, 1 and 20, you get the result of 20 in the numerator. If you multiply the denominators, 2 and 18, you get 36 in the numerator. The product of the fractions is 20/36. 4 is the largest number that is evenly divisible by both the numerator and the denominator of this fraction, so divide each by 4 to get the simplified answer. 20/36 ÷ 4/4 = 5/9.

Let's say you're going to multiply 756 and 32. Write 756 above 32, making sure that the ones and tens columns of both numbers line up, so that the 6 from 756 is above the 2 in 32 and the 5 in 756 is above the 3 in 32, and so on. This will make it easier for you to visualize the long multiplication process.  You will essentially begin by multiplying the 2 in 32 by each of the numbers in 756, and then multiplying the 3 in 32 by each of the numbers in 756. But let's not get ahead of ourselves. The "bigger" number means the one with the most digits (numbers). Take the 2 from 32 and multiply it by the 6 in 756. The product of 6 times 2 is 12. Write the ones digit, 2, under the units, and carry the 1 over the 5. Basically, you write down whatever number is in the ones digit, and if there is a number in the tens digit, you will have to carry it over the number to the left of the top number you just multiplied. You'll have a 2 directly below the 6 and the 2. Now, multiply 2 times 5 to equal 10. Add the 1 you carried over above the 5 to 10 to equal 11, and then write a 1 next to the 2 in the bottom row. You'll have to carry the extra 1 in the tens place over the 7. Now, just multiply 2 by 7 to equal 14. Then add the 1 that you carried over to 14 to equal 15. Don't carry the tens over this time, as there are no more numbers to multiply on this row. Just write the 15 on the bottom line. Now, you'll be multiplying the number in the tens place of 32, 3, by each digit in 756, so draw a zero below the 2 in 1512 before you begin so you are already starting in the tens place. If you were going to keep going and multiply a number in the hundreds place by the top number, then you'd need to draw two zeroes, and so on. Now, multiply 3 by 6 to equal 18. Again, put the 8 on the line, and carry the 1 over above the 5. Multiply 3 times 5. This makes 15, but you must add on the carried 1, so it equals 16. Write the 6 on the line, and carry the 1 over above the 7. Multiply 3 times 7 to equal 21. Add the 1 you carried to equal 22. You...

Let's say you're working with the following numbers: 4, 2, 8, 1, 15. Just reorder them in ascending order, like so: 1, 2, 4, 8, 15. How you do this will depend on whether you have an even amount of numbers or an odd amount. Here's what you can do in either situation:  If odd, cross out the leftmost number, then the rightmost number, and then repeat. When you have one number left, this is your median. If you're working with the numbers 4, 7, 8, 11, and 21, then 8 is your mode because it's the number in the middle. If even, cross out numbers on either side, but you should have two numbers exactly in the middle. Add them together and divide by two for the median value. (If the two numbers in the middle are the same, that number is your median.) If you're working with the numbers 1, 2, 5, 3, 7, and 10, then your two middle numbers are 5 and 3. Add up 5 and 3 to get 8 and divide this result by 2 to get 4 as your median.

Let's say you're working with the following problem: 10.5 - 8.3. Write 10.5 above 8.3 so that the decimal points of both numbers are lined up. The .5 in 10.5 should be over the .3 in 8.3, and the 0 in 10.5 should be over the 8 in 8.3. If you have a problem where both numbers don't have the same amount of numbers after the decimal point, write a 0 in the empty spaces until they even out. For example, if you have the problem 5.32 - 4.2, you can rewrite it as 5.32 - 4.20. This won't change the value of the second number while making it possible to subtract both numbers more easily. You should follow the same process you'd follow when subtracting regular whole numbers, except that you need to remember to line up the decimals of both numbers and to keep the decimal in your answer. In this case, you need to subtract 3 from 5. 5 - 3 = 2, so you should write a 2 below the 3 in 8.3. Make sure to carry that decimal point down to the answer. It should read .2 so far. Now, you'll need to subtract 8 from 0. Borrow from the 1 next to the 0 to make it a 10, and subtract 8 from 10 (10 - 8) to get 2. You can also just think of it as subtracting 8 from 10 without borrowing since there's no number in the tens column of the second number. Write the answer down below the 8, to the left of the decimal point. Your final answer is 2.2. If you want to make sure you subtracted decimals correctly, then all you have to do is to add your answer and the smaller number to make sure that you get the larger number. 2.2 + 8.3 = 10.5 so you're all done.

Letting yourself be angry and frustrated for a short time can help you cleanse your system and it will be easier to forget her. Allow yourself to be upset for a set amount of time and then refrain from indulging anymore. Be disciplined with this timeline.  Try starting with one week. During this week allow yourself to cry, get angry, listen to sad music, or do whatever rituals you feel necessary to your healing. When that one week is up commit to moving forward. Don't panic if you find yourself thinking about her. If you try to forbid yourself from thinking about her, you will only think about her more. This is called the "white bear effect." If you think about her, accept the thought, and then let it go. Talk to a family member or good friend about your feelings.  Vent about her so that you no longer fixate on the pain.  Write out your feelings in a journal. Writing is a good way to come to terms with a subject so that you stop thinking about it. After you have allowed yourself to vent about her, don't bring her up again. Avoid talking about her and try to move quickly from the topic if someone asks you about her.

Let’s face it. It may be hard to get complete privacy in middle school, but you have to do the best you can to make sure that you and your girlfriend can step away from your friends to get some time together. You could step outside during the school dance, find some solo time during a party, or even go out on a date together. Just do the best you can to make sure that there’s no chance that your friends can barge in and start making fun of you and ruin the mood.  Avoid trying this in school for the first time. You’ve got to find a slightly more romantic location. This doesn’t mean you should try to kiss your girlfriend the second you’re alone together. The moment has to feel right, and privacy isn’t the only requirement for that. If you’re ready to kiss your girlfriend, then your breath better be ready, too. You don’t have to make dramatic gestures and eat ten breath mints, but you should brush your teeth if you know you’re going to see your girlfriend soon. And if you’ve both just eaten a meal, just quickly chew a piece of gum. Don’t make a big deal about it or she’ll know that you’re self-conscious about kissing her. You can also put on some lip balm a few hours before to soften up your lips, but don’t use it right before you make a move or your lips won’t feel too pleasant. Once you’ve got her alone, you can’t just swoop in for the kiss or it will feel a bit forced. Instead, you have to show your girlfriend that you care about her by making her feel special. Give her a compliment, like, “You look so pretty tonight,” or say something nice like, “I’ve had so much fun with you today.” You don’t have to try too hard to show her that you really do care about her. Turn off your phone, look into her eyes, and show her that she has your undivided attention. If you want to kiss your girlfriend, then she has to feel like you really like her for who she is, and that you see her as more than just a person to kiss. Before you kiss your girlfriend, you have to make sure that you’re on the same page. This is probably...

Liberally apply sunscreen on your baby if they are older than six months. Choose a broad-spectrum sunscreen that has at least an SPF of 30. Use a mineral-based sunscreen that contains zinc oxide or titanium dioxide to avoid irritating your baby’s skin. If you plan to enter the water with your baby, be sure to use waterproof sunscreen that has a UVA rating of at least four stars.  You can use sunscreen on a baby that is younger than six months, but do not apply is as frequently. Only apply it to exposed skin, and try to keep their arms, legs, feet, and face protected from the sun with clothing. The chemicals in the sunscreen may irritate their sensitive skin.  Don’t use products that contain insect repellent. Sunscreen can wear off after a few hours, so be sure to reapply it every two hours. If your baby has been in the water or has been perspiring, apply the sunscreen more frequently. Babies have thin skin that is vulnerable to the sun. Use swimsuits, rash guards, and hats with UV-protection built in. You can buy UV-protected swimwear wherever swim or beach gear is sold. You can also get it online. Look for swimwear and clothing that states it has a ultraviolet protection factor (UPF) of 30 or higher. Make sure your baby’s arms and legs are completely covered to protect them from the sun’s harmful rays. Dress them in lightweight, light-colored clothing. Lighter colors like white, yellow, or light blue will help reflect the heat to keep your baby’s skin cooler. Opt for fabrics that have a tighter weave that will keep the sun from penetrating the clothing. Hold your baby’s clothes up to a light. The tighter the weave, the less light will shine through it. It is important to keep your baby’s head covered during a day at the beach. Even if they have hair, the top of their head can still burn. Use a wide-brimmed hat to protect their heads and shield their eyes from the sun’s glare.

Libraries are collections of similar files and folders. Windows Search automatically indexes all of the folders that you've placed in a library. By default, this includes your Documents, Pictures, Music, and Videos folders. You can add additional folders to these preset libraries, or you can create new custom libraries which will be indexed as well. You can add any local or network folder to a library. Use Explorer to navigate your drives until you find the folder you want to index. You can select multiple folders in one location and then right-click the selection to add them all at once. Another menu will appear listing your libraries. You can select from any of your existing libraries, or you can create a new library.  Adding a folder to a library does not move its location. The library entry is simply a "pointer" to the folder's actual location on the drive. It may take a while to index a large folder for the first time. The point of the Search Index is to quickly access your most important files. If you add all of your folders to the index, you'll only slow down the search process. Try to keep your index limited to your essential files and folders.

Lie down on a fitness mat on one side of your body. Your legs should be stacked on top of each other. Bend your knees. Place your upper arm’s hand (arm furthest from the mat) behind or at the side of your head. Place your lower arm’s hand either extended straight out from your body, or on your thigh or abdomen. Exhale and contract your abdominal oblique muscles to lift your upper body off the mat and crunch. Try to crunch to your side as high as possible, aiming to get your elbow as close to your thigh as you can. Pause and hold the crunch for a brief moment before inhaling and coming back down to your starting position. To make this exercise more challenging, lift up your knees simultaneously as you crunch. To make it even more challenging, you can straighten out your legs and simultaneously lift both of them up as you crunch. Once you have completed about one set of crunches (about 10–15 reps), flip over to lay on the other side of your body.  Get into the same starting position you did before, with your knees bent and your arms in place, and complete a set on this side of your body. Do 1–3 sets of 10–15 reps on each side of your body.  Try to do these crunches about 2 or 3 times a week.

Lie down on your back and pull your knees to your chest. You should feel a stretch in your lower back. Stay in this position for 30 seconds and then slowly release your knees. Perform this stretch 4-6 times, once a day. Do another stretch where you position yourself on your hands and knees. Slowly sit back on your heels with your toes flat on the ground. Stretch your chest and arms out in front of you. Lower your chest to the ground, keeping your arms outstretched. Hold this stretch for 30 seconds. Do this stretch 4-6 times, once a day. Lying on your back, press your lower back into the ground. Squeeze your lower abdominal muscles as you do this and pull your belly button inward and upward. Stay in this position for 10 seconds. Do 8-10 reps of this exercise daily.  Your core helps support your back for greater stability. You can also do curl-ups, where you lie down on your back with your legs bent and place your arms across your chest. Flatten your lower back against the ground as you raise your head and shoulders from the floor. Keep your lower abdominal muscles tight as you do this. Stay in this position for 2-4 seconds and then lower back down. Try to do 2 sets of 10 curl-ups each, once a day. Ride a stationary bike for 30 minutes a day to get enough cardio and activity. Light exercise on a bike is a good way to maintain a healthy weight, which will help to reduce the pain in your spine and back. Avoid vigorous activity like running, jogging, or sprinting. These exercises can put too much stress on your spine and make your condition worse. Swimming and water aerobics, where you do exercises in the water, are good ways to exercise without putting stress on your spine and joints. Do laps in a pool several times a week or sign up for a water aerobics class. Tai Chi uses slow, controlled movements to increase blood flow to your muscles and increase the flexibility of your joints. It is a good option for spinal issues, as it does not put impact or stress on your bones. Look for a Tai Chi class at your local gym...

Lie down onto your back with your knees bent. Place your feet flat on the floor. Place a medium-sized rubber ball or folded beach towel between your knees. Squeeze your inner thighs together against the ball and hold for at least 30 seconds. Relax your thighs for around 10 seconds, and repeat the exercise two or three times. Lower yourself onto your hands and feet into a plank position. Make sure your shoulders are over your wrists and your back is straight. Keeping yourself stable, jump your legs out as wide as possible. Then, squeeze as you jump them back together. If you have a slick surface, you can place towels, paper plates, or gliding discs under your feet and slide your legs wide and squeeze them back together instead of jumping. Lie on your back with your legs held straight up. Flex your feet, place your heels together, and turn your toes so your feet make a V shape. Lower and bend your knees, pushing your knees outwards and keeping your feet together. Squeeze your inner thighs as you straighten your legs. Lay on your right side on a yoga mat. Keep your back straight, bend your arm, and place your upper body weight on the bent arm. Bend your left knee and bring it over your right leg so that the foot is perpendicular to your straight right leg. Straighten your back and keep your head in line with your spine. Flex your abdominal muscles.  Exhale and raise your right leg up and straight as far as it will go. Stop if your hips start to move or your back starts to curve. Hold the leg at the top for 1 second. Inhale and lower the leg slowly. Complete all the reps on one leg before switching sides. Lie down on your back with your legs flat on the floor. Raise both legs a few inches off the floor. Then, raise one leg higher, then lower it as you raise the other leg, making a scissoring motion. Do this 10 times. Then, scissor your legs sideways by crisscrossing your legs. Make sure a different leg crosses over the top each time. Do this for 10 reps. Clamshells will work your outer rather than inner thighs,...

Lie down with your back on a mat and your arms up above your head, as they are in the starting position. Practice lifting your legs up to your chest as fast as you can, simulating the same motion of the back tuck. Keep your body completely straight. Pretend there's a string tied to each of your hands that's being pulled upwards. This can help you extend your arms all the way up and straighten out your body. Your arms should be in close, right next to your ears. Do not bend your knees more than 90 degrees. Then, swing your arms back up as you jump straight up into the air. Before you try the back tuck, practice swinging your arms upward as you jump.  This is called "digging" or "setting." It allows you to generate enough power to actually do the back tuck. Remember to jump up first and not backward. Never look at the ground before your takeoff! Instead, keep your eyes focused straight ahead. Choose a spot that is slightly above head level and keep your eyes fixed on that point. Really push with your legs as you jump. After your feet leave the ground, bring your legs up to your chest as you continue to jump upward. The momentum of bringing your legs into your chest will help make the backward rotation much easier. Concentrate on jumping quickly rather than jumping with as much force as possible.

Lift the latch and pour the baseballs into the container. Baseball cleaning machines are able to scrub dozens of balls clean in just a few hours. If you need to clean many balls on a frequent basis, an expensive baseball cleaning machine might be a worthwhile investment  Choose baseballs that have roughly the same amount of dirt for each load. Cleaner balls will take less time than dirtier balls, so break the balls up into groups to get the best results. Read your machine's owner manual to determine the maximum number of baseballs you can safely load. These machines do not typically require a minimum number. This technique is best for cleaning well-used, very grimy baseballs. Commercial baseball cleaning machines use a dry rubber compound to clean the balls without using moisture. This helps to preserve the leather and won't waterlog the balls. This method is essentially a large-scale, extremely thorough, automated version of the pencil eraser method. Place the drum back on the machine. Turn the machine on and set its timer. The base will rotate the drum full of balls along with the cleaning compound. If your baseballs are still not scrubbed white at the end of the run, you can always start the machine up again.  Lightly-scuffed balls take roughly an hour to clean. Moderate grime can be removed in two to three hours. Baseballs caked in a serious amount of dirt may take as long as 12 hours to thoroughly clean. Feel free to leave these loads to run overnight. When the cycle is complete, remove the drum from the machine. Open the lid and remove the balls. They should be a shiny, bright white. Leave the cleaning compound in the drum for the next load of balls. These rubber chips can be used until they've been entirely worn away, just like a pencil eraser.

Lift the left side of the curtain rod and slide the curtain so that the first grommet is on the outside of the bracket. Set the rod back down, and repeat this step with the last grommet on the second panel.  If you want to be able to move the curtain panel back-and-forth across the entire rod, the last grommet should be inside the bracket.  If your curtain has just 1 panel, do this step with the first and last grommets. The return is the excess 4 inches (10 cm) or so of fabric on each side of the curtain panel. Not all curtains have this, but if yours does, tuck the excess fabric into the curtain to that it rests against the wall. This will give your curtain a nicer finish. If the return won't stay inside the curtain, insert a drapery pin to the back of the return. Place a screw into the wall, then secure the pin to the screw. Eyelet curtains develop natural folds because of the way that they are hung. If your curtains didn't get these folds, open the curtains up. Run your fingers down them from top-to-bottom, placing your fingers into the folds. Eyelet curtains typically don't need to be tied back because of the way that they drape, but you can certainly install wall-mounted tie backs if you want to. Measure two-thirds down from the top of the window frame. Place the tie back bracket against the wall and mark the holes with a pencil. Remove the bracket and drill the holes. Replace the bracket and insert the screws. You can also tie back the curtains using ropes or ribbon.

Lift up different pieces of hair so that all parts of your pixie cut are covered, including the bangs and roots. Take a thin, plastic comb and drag it through your hair in long, straight movements. Move the comb so that the hair is pulled from front to back, and so the front hairline is completely visible.  You can use a volumizing mousse as well. Knead this throughout your hair with your fingers. For optimal results, do this after you’ve showered and towel-dried your hair. the hair along the side parts. Locate the side parts of your hair and blow over them with the hairdryer. Focus specifically on the parts of your hair that are closest to the roots. As you blow dry your pixie cut around, use your fingers to move your hair around. Make sure that an even amount of heat reaches each piece of your hair so the volumizing spray can do its job. Put a nozzle on your blow dryer that focuses the heated air into a smaller radius. This makes the blow drying process more effective. Rub a pea-sized amount of molding cream over your hands and begin using your fingers to rub the product into different portions of your hair. As you did with the blow drying and volumizing spray, make sure that all areas of your hair are covered—don’t just focus on the bottom of your bangs. Place a special focus on fingering the sides of your hair, as well. Your roots also need some TLC.

Lift your feet out of the tub — you do not need to dry them beforehand. Ensure that you’ve wet the stone before you use it on your feet. Applying light to medium pressure, rub the pumice stone on the wet, callused parts of your feet for 2 to 3 minutes to remove dead skin.  Rubbing too hard with a pumice stone can result in irritated skin and infection. It shouldn’t hurt, so if it begins to, either rub more gently or, if your skin is very irritated, stop all together until it heals. You can use a pumice stone daily, but be sure to rinse it after every use. If it looks particularly worn, try boiling it or, if that doesn’t seem to refresh it, replace it.  If you can’t find or don’t want to use a pumice stone, you can also purchase a foot file at most drugstores and superstores. You use it much like a pumice stone, rubbing it against the callused parts of your feet with gentle to medium pressure, and backing off if it hurts. If your foot bath is still clean — not full of dead skin flakes — you can put your feet back into the bath to give them a final rinse before drying them off. If the bath is full of dead skin bits or if you just feel cleaner rinsing with clean water after the soak, place your feet under a tap and rinse your feet using lukewarm water. Some people claim that Epsom salt is detoxifying, and that it is necessary to rinse after soaking in an Epsom salt bath so as to remove the toxins that have come to the surface of your skin. There is little to no scientific evidence to show this is true, but it also doesn’t hurt to rinse! Wrap your feet in a towel to soak up most of the water, then pat them dry. Avoid rubbing your feet as this might irritate your skin. After drying your feet, apply a moisturizing lotion. What you use will depend on your own preference, but it’s best to use something with little to no scent.  If your feet aren’t super cracked or dry, you can get away with a lighter moisturizer; if they’re very dry, you might want to use something heavier or even made specifically for cracked, dry...

Light diffusion refers to the process of spreading light from a concentrated source out evenly across a surface. It’s important in photography, especially when using your standard flash. You can create a light diffuser for your flash by using a white downspout funnel. To use it as a diffuser, slide it over the body of the flash by sticking the hollow opening over the bulb. The shape of your flash will keep it in place as you shoot. If the funnel won’t fit over your flash mount, hold the flat surface area 2–4 inches (5.1–10.2 cm) away from your flash bulb as you shoot. Another way to soften harsh flashes and light sources is to bounce them off of a reflective surface. You can build a simple reflector for your flash kit by taking a black umbrella and taping plain printer paper to the inside surface area of the umbrella. Layer your paper so that it is flat and covers every open surface. To use the reflector, point your flash directly towards the inside of your umbrella, away from your subject. The light will fill the room based on the angle that you’re holding the umbrella. Adjust its position based on the strength of the light that you desire. A light box is a small box with reflective sides that bounces light in every direction to diffuse it and soften shadows. You can build your own light box with a translucent plastic box and white paper. Flip your box so that the opening of the container is facing your camera. Then, take a large sheet of white paper and tape it to the topmost section of the back of the container. Let the paper stretch out past the bottom of the container at a soft decline to avoid rough angles or crumples in your paper.  Place your subject in the middle of the light box. This only works if you’re shooting smaller subjects. Set up multiple light sources around the box so that each side gets covered in light from the outside. Light boxes are sometimes called photography tents.

Light pink and peach tend to be the best on lighter skin because they are the most natural-looking blush colors. Anything sheer, especially plum, also works well on fair skin because it’s on the translucent side and not so overwhelming in contrast. Apricot is great for adding a subtle warming effect to those with medium skin tones while mauve provides a more bold sense of depth. Rose provides just the right delicate, natural flush for olive skin. Bronze blush adds a little warmth while also brightening. Bold colors like raisin or brick highlight darker skin tones the best without looking too over-the-top. For a neutral look, try a bright tangerine blush. Powder blush is a good go-to because it works well on nearly all skin types, goes on silky, and leaves a matte finish. Also, powder blush is very likely to stay on and not need reapplication over longer periods of time. Cream blush can hydrate your skin to keep it from looking too dry. It tends to look a little dewy when applied and feels very lightweight, which helps in providing a more authentic blush look.

Lighter eyes often go together with lighter skin types. Determine your score based on your eye color:  0. Light blue, gray, or green eyes. 1. Blue, gray or green. 2. Hazel or light brown. 3. Dark brown. 4. Very dark brown. For this you should consider your natural hair color when you were a young adult and before you started to get gray hair. Measure your hair color as follows:  0. Red, strawberry blonde or light blonde. 1. Blonde. 2. Dark blonde, sandy brown, to light brown. 3. Dark brown. 4. Black. Consider your skin color before you have tanned. In general darker skin tones will tan better and be less vulnerable to sun damage.  0. Very white. 1. Pale or fair skinned. 2. Fair, beige, or golden colored. 3. Olive or light brown. 4. Dark brown to black. Lighter skinned people tend to have more freckles. Freckles are small darker brown spots on your skin. They often appear after your skin is exposed to sunlight. They are frequently about 1 to 2 millimeters in diameter. Consider how many you have on areas of your skin that are protected from exposure to sunlight.  0. A lot. 1. Some. 2. Only a couple. 3. Very few. 4. No freckles.

Lighting is by far the most important factor when photographing glass, since the wrong setup can create out-of-control reflections or washed out blurs. Soft, yellow or orange natural light in the early morning or twilight can make the glass visible without causing too much glare. If soft natural light isn't available, use weak, yellow artificial lights instead. White lights are only recommended if you take the time to try a more complex white-line or black-line setup described below. Fingerprints and dirt show up clearly on illuminated glass. Clean the glass with glass cleaner and newspaper or cloth before photographing, and wash your hands thoroughly before handling the glass. Gloves are not recommended, since they often leave a residue or fibers. (This is also why newspaper is preferred over paper towels.) Without a more involved set up, your best bet is a plain background that's neither too bright, nor too dark. Find a grey or cream wall, tablecloth, or other background to photograph. If you want to photograph the glass against a more interesting background, or alongside other objects, try to keep the number of visible colors as low as possible. As soon as a second or third color is visible in the surroundings, the reflections in the glass will look much more distracting and strange. Of course, if "distracting and strange" is what you're going for, you can increase the number of colors in the background or surroundings. If you want reflections included in your photograph, this can be a fun series of trial and error to see which effect you like best. If you're trying to minimize reflections and keep attention on the glass object itself, there are stricter rules to follow:  Point the light source (or direct it with photo flags or barriers) so it illuminates the surfaces to the left or right of the object, not the object itself. Direct illumination usually leads to glare, but can be attempted for a more "glowing" effect. Minimize glare by sending the light through a photography diffuser, or a sheet of tissue...

Lightly brush or comb through your Barbie’s hair if you want a fuller, frizzier hairdo. Use fingers first, then a hairbrush if needed or desired, to separate the curls and create volume.  Note that this method may straighten out curls more than desired, or turn tight curls into more relaxed waves or crinkles. Go slowly and start with a small section of hair to make sure you like the effect of the curls brushed out before you do the whole head of hair. Use just your fingers to adjust curls as they are when you first take out your braids or curlers. You can separate the curls gently for a fuller and more relaxed look, or leave them alone completely to keep tight, defined curls.  To keep tight, smooth curls, touch them as little as possible after you take the braids or curlers out very gently. Don’t run your fingers, a brush, or anything else through the curls and they will stay in place for quite awhile. To create a little more volume and natural-looking curls, separate the curls just slightly by adjusting the hair with your fingers to pull apart the curls a little. Take it slow so you can make sure you like the look before you do the whole head of hair. When you’re ready to give your Barbie a new hairdo, undo the curls simply by rewetting the hair. Brush out the wet hair and let it dry again to return it back to its original straight style.  Avoid using any human hair products like hairspray to keep the curls in place on Barbie hair, as these will only gunk it up over time and make it much harder to create hairstyles in the future. If your Barbie’s hair is tangled and difficult to return back to normal, try retreating it with a fabric softener and water mixture. Or you can dip it in warm or hot water again to help get it smooth.

Lightly grease the inside of three 9-inch (22.86 centimeters) cake pans. Dust the inside of each pan with flour, then tap out the excess. Cut the butter into small cubes, and add it to the saucepan along with 6 ounces (175 grams) of chocolate. Turn the heat up to medium, and wait for the butter and chocolate to melt, stirring with a rubber spatula occasionally. Keep stirring until the sugar melts. Be sure to scrape the bottom of the saucepan from time to time as you do so. If you beat the eggs in too soon, you'll risk them cooking and forming clumps. Stir the eggs in using a whisk, so that the yolks break easier. Keep stirring until they are mixed evenly into the batter; you should not see any streak of egg yolk. Keep stirring until everything is evenly combined, and there are not lumps or streaks left. Be sure to scrape the bottom and sides of the pan. Use a rubber spatula to help guide the mixture into the pans, and to scrape any residual batter from the saucepan. Make sure that each pan has an even amount of batter in it. Don't worry if it looks thin. You will be stacking these on top of each other to create a tall, layered cake. The cakes are ready when a toothpick poked into the middle comes out clean. Try to bake all of the cakes on the same level. If your oven is small, and you have to bake them at different levels, then be sure to rotate the cakes at regular intervals. This will ensure that all the cakes bake evenly. Allow the cakes to cool in their pans for 10 to 15 minutes first, then remove them from the pans, and let them finish cooling completely. The cakes must be cool before you frost them. If they are warm, the frosting will melt. Set one of the cakes down onto the serving dish you want to use. Set the other ones aside. Keep stirring until the sugar has dissolved, and the heavy cream is evenly mixed in with the chocolate. You don't want to see any streaks or swirls of heavy cream.  You can use the same saucepan as before, but make sure that you clean it first. Do not add in the shaved...

Like all cats, Maine Coons are an investment of both time and money.  They can cost anywhere from $400 to $1,000, and they also require ongoing costs like cat food, cat litter, and vet visits.  Plus, since Maine Coons are relatively outgoing, they require some attention and affection every day.  If you are a busy person, consider a pet that requires less energy. If you want a less energetic Maine Coon, think about getting a full-grown cat instead of a kitten. Reputable breeders will not have Maine Coons (or any other breed) available year-round.  They will also not accept purchases online or have multiple litters on their premises.  Instead, they’ll insist on a strict contract that describes what happens in case you can no longer take care of the cat, and provide as much information as possible about the cat’s pedigree and health. Contact the Maine Coon Breeders and Fanciers Association for a list of reputable breeders in your area. Buying your Maine Coon from a breeder is the most common way to get one.  But you could also get your Maine Coon from a rescue organization like Maine Coon Adoptions or Maine Coon Rescue.  Contact one of these organizations or a similar group about getting a Maine Coon. Reputable breeders or cat sellers will welcome you to visit the cat in the location where the cat was raised.  The cat should be raised indoors.  Be wary of breeders who try to meet you in a location that is not the place where the Maine Coon was raised (typically the breeder’s home).  If you see that the Maine Coon was raised in a small, dirty, or crowded pen, choose another breeder.  These conditions suggest that the cat might have fleas or illnesses. Likewise, do not obtain a cat that was raised in isolation, as it may have difficulty socializing with other pets or people when introduced to your home. Maine Coons will probably not be available right away.  Cats raised properly need to be about 12 to 16 weeks old before they can be separated from their mothers.  Additionally, many breeders have wait lists that...

Like an essay, advertising posters have three parts: headline, body, and signature. To design a great poster, make all three components strong and eye-catching.  Headline. This is the part that should grab the reader's attention. It is usually at the top of the poster and is in the biggest font. It should be short- less than 15 words- or your reader will get bored and walk away without reading the rest. Try to come up with a great phrase that conveys a message about your product and makes the reader want to look at the rest of the poster. Body. Underneath the headline should be one or two sentences that advertise your message. They can be longer than the headline, but again short enough to keep the reader interested. Highlight only a few key points that you want readers to know and to entice them. Signature. Here is where you'll place your company, store, group, or whatever you're advertising. Include all relevant contact information like address, phone number, email, social media pages, websites, and hours of operation. It is usually at the bottom of the poster. Although you can hand draw your poster, usage of specialized computer programs can open a lot of possibilities for your poster. If you are trained in using Adobe products, you may choose to use Adobe InDesign or Illustrator. If you are not well-trained, you may choose a template-based program, such as Apple's Pages or ArtSkills.com's Poster Maker. If you're advertising for a company or organization, you should consider designing a logo if you don't already have one. This will not only grab your readers' attention, but you can start building a recognizable trademark. If your advertisements make you successful, you could even design posters with just your logo, because readers will already be aware of what you are advertising. Coca-cola is a prime example of this. Bigger is not always better when it comes to advertising posters. While you'll be tempted to go as big as possible, this could actually hurt you. Besides being very expensive, large posters...

Like any alga species, black algae (which are really blue-green algae that look black) will grow quickly in warm water on a sunny day. Black algae are chlorine-resistant, because they have a protective outer layer that makes regular sanitization ineffective. While algae aren’t harmful, their presence can be a sign that other bacteria are present.  Other alga species that are common in pools are green algae, mustard or yellow algae, and pink algae, which is actually a bacterium. Algae tend to bloom in pools that have poor circulation, poor filtration, a high pH level, and a low chlorine level. Chlorine should be somewhere between 1.0 and 3.0 parts per million. The pH level should be between 7.2 and 7.8. Alkalinity should be between 80 and 120 parts per million. Test these three levels once or twice a week and correct as needed. Calcium hardness should be tested monthly, and the ideal level is between 180 and 220 parts per million. On a weekly or bi-weekly basis, shock your pool to remove chloramines (chlorine molecules that have attached to other particles) and raise chlorine levels quickly. There are four products you can use to shock your pool, and they are:  Calcium or lithium hypochlorite Granular chlorine Potassium peroxymonosulfate Keeping the water in your pool moving is one of the best preventative measures for algae. Not only will it make it harder for alga spores to take hold, it will also ensure that sanitizing chemicals are evenly distributed. Monitor and clean the skimmer and strainer basket regularly. A clogged filter won’t work as well, and it will slow down the flow of water. In warmer months like July and August when algae have the best chance of blooming, run the pump for about eight hours over the course of the day. Especially if you’ve had trouble with algae in the past, consider adding algaecide to your pool on a monthly basis. Ammonia-based algaecides should work for green algae, but metal-based (specifically copper) algaecides are necessary for black algae. Brushing will remove dirt and...

Like any difficult skill, the best way to learn how to open your eyes underwater without pain is through practice. Start by jumping into your preferred body of water. As noted above, clean fresh water is best — chlorine and salt water hurt more. Keep your eyes closed as you enter the water to prevent water from splashing into them. If you're wearing contacts, don't forget to take them off before you get in the water. Once you're underwater, open your eyes ever-so-slightly. Crack your eyelids open just a little bit until you can see the vague outlines of your surroundings. Maintain this for a second or two. If it's not too uncomfortable, proceed to the next step. If squinting is too painful, you may be swimming in eye-irritating water (or may just naturally have sensitive eyes). Try the "controlled environment" step at the end of this section. Now, gradually open your eyelids to their natural "open" position. It may be hard to get yourself to do this — it often feels "wrong," like swallowing a pill without water or looking over a high ledge if you're afraid of heights. If you're nervous, go extra-slow to keep your anxiety manageable. Some people find it easier to open their eyes underwater if they look upward. Try experimenting with pointing your eyes in different directions to find a position that feels best for you. If you've ever held your eyes open out of water (like for a staring contest), you probably know that they start to sting after a while even without anything irritating them besides the air. When you're underwater, your eyes will start to sting much more quickly and you'll need to hold them closed for longer than normal to get the stinging to go away. As soon as you feel the first twinges of pain, shut your eyes and hold them closed for a second or two. Your eyelids will re-coat your eyes with a protective layer of tears, reducing the pain. When the stinging goes away, gradually open your eyes again. Repeat this pattern as you swim underwater to keep the pain under control. Everyone's eyes are...

Like any job, it's important to understand the difference between what will be expected of you as an entry-level welder and what will be expected of you in other welding openings for jobs you might find advertised for welders. The type of experience and certifications you'll need will vary, depending on the type of position you want to pursue.   Welders do one thing–weld metal. Good welders can consistently find work in all types of manufacturing, performing their trade skill in the making of cars, ships, heavy machinery, and other essential items. If two pieces of metal need to be fused together, the welder is the person for the job. The welder doesn't usually assemble the metal to be welded, operate any other kind of machinery, or do anything but weld. Fitters, erectors, operators, and other trades are often involved in processes that require welding.  Welding engineers have more responsibilities, including project management and planning, metallurgy, and overseeing the welders. Welding engineers usually need experience drafting in CAD, and are generally required to have a four-year degree in materials engineering or welding engineering, and often an advanced degree.   Welding Instructors must have passed the Certified Welding Instructor certification examination from the AWS, becoming certified to instruct others in the skills necessary to weld. If you have ambitions to teach, many jobs are available for qualified instructors. You need several years of experience with different styles of welding to qualify for this certification.  Welding Inspectors are certified to evaluate and complete quality standards commensurate with the standards of the AWS. On-the-job experience and working alongside a Senior Welding Inspector are required before completing the certification. Typically, AWS certification involves a welding test and a written exam that you'll take every six months to a year, depending on regional requirements, to keep your certification up to date. You'll need to obtain the certification necessary...

Like its name implies, this line is related to matters of the heart. It tells about your emotional life and relationships. Examine its length, how it curves, and whether it is broken or crossed. For instance, crosses in the line or places where it breaks can mean you've had episodes where you were very sad.  If it's straight and long, that means you're happy with your love life. It also means you're giving emotionally. "Long" means it starts underneath the index finger.  If it's long and curved, that means you are emotionally open, and that you're especially affectionate when that curve points towards the index finger.  If the line is straight and short, that means you're not as tied down by romantic notions. "Short" means it starts near your middle finger or even further down your palm.  If it's short and curves, that means you keep your emotions closer to the chest, preferring the company of a close group of friends to that of a large party. Your life line isn't about how long you're going to live. Rather, it points to how you've been taking care of yourself, or more pointedly, if you haven't been taking care of yourself.  If you see a number or breaks a long this line, that could be an indication you need to take better care of yourself. In other words, you need to get more rest and look after your emotional and physical needs.  A short line (one that doesn't go all the way to the bottom of your palm), means you like to distract yourself when tough times hit, while a longer line means you're the person everyone else looks to for support. The head line displays things to do with your brain, such as your intelligence or the way you communicate. It also can show the ways you learn best.  Pay attention to how the head and heart line interact. If they are pinched together, it can mean you are a bit more reserved and cautious. The more spread apart these two lines are at the beginning, the more adventurous you are.  If the line is straight, it says you're more levelheaded, while if it curves, you're more...

Like most Microsoft Office products, Excel will automatically save recovery versions of files, meaning that you may be able to restore a partial version of your corrupted Excel document. However, Excel doesn't always save these files in time, and you most likely won't be able to recover the whole document in this way. Click the Windows logo in the bottom-left corner of the screen. This will search your computer for the "This PC" program. It's the computer monitor-shaped icon at the top of the Start window. Doing so opens the This PC window. This is usually the "OS (C:)" option below the "Devices and drives" heading in the middle of the page. You'll find this in the middle of the hard drive's folder. This folder is labeled with part or all of your username on your computer. It's in the "A" section, so you'll most likely find this folder near the top of the window. If you can't find this folder, click the View tab, then check the "Hidden items" box in the "Show/hide" section to prompt the "AppData" folder to appear. This option is near the top of the folder. You'll find it in the "M" section. It's in the "O" section of the Microsoft folder. This folder should be near the top of the window. Look for an Excel file icon that has a name matching your corrupted Excel file, then click it to select it. If you don't see any files here, a recovery version of your Excel document was not saved. To do so:  Click View  Check the "File name extensions" box. Click Home  Click Rename  Replace the .tmp section with .xlsx  Press ↵ Enter. Click Yes when prompted. Double-click the file that you just renamed to open it. Once the restored file opens, press Ctrl+S, double-click This PC, select a save location, enter a file name, and click Save. Be sure to select a different file name than the one which you used for the corrupted Excel file.

Like most prey animals, deer run from most loud noises. For example, if you suspect deer will enter your yard at a certain time, set a radio tuner between 2 stations and blast the noise into your yard. Or, consider using noisemakers, whistles, or firecrackers to frighten off deer and prevent them from returning.If you live in a neighborhood, keep the noises reasonably quiet. Otherwise, you may annoy your neighbors. For example, while playing the radio at a moderately loud volume for 1-2 hours probably won't bother anyone, blaring your car horn for the same amount of time will be a nuisance. Deer don't like dogs because the dog is a natural predator. Once deer have been barked at and chased off the property a few times, they'll remember the dog and be reluctant to come back to your yard. Allow your dog to roam the yard or garden space, since it won't do much good locked inside the house. If you're considering getting a dog specifically to keep deer away, your best bet is to adopt a medium to large sized dog. You'll need to care for, shelter, and feed the dog once you've adopted it. Deer dislike having lights directed at them (especially at night). So, purchase 3–5 motion-activated sensor lights and install them on the exterior walls of your house. Point the lights towards areas where you know deer like to enter your yard. Once the deer learn that they’ll be under floodlights when they enter your yard at night, they’ll stay away. Purchase motion-activated lights at a hardware store or a home-improvement store.

Like other accessories, the color of your pocket square will contribute to the overall effect of your outfit. Pull together shades that blend naturally to the eye. Create depth by pairing a dark suit with a square in a lighter hue, or a muted ensemble with a bold or contrasting color.  Colors that are similar but not identical tend to clash, which can result in a disorganized look. It’s a good idea to pick out your outfit first before deciding which tie, pocket square and other accessories will go with it best. If you're decked out in multiple patterns, it's a good idea to make sure that they're different enough to keep from being jarring. That way, the large, uniform pattern on your tie won't have to compete with the small, intricate one on your pocket square.Your safest bet is to go with a different design for each of your major accessories, or at the very least a different size or color scheme.  A gingham pocket square, for instance, will be a bit much set against a pinstriped suit, but will look right at home on a solid one with a lightly textured tie. Avoid matching your pocket square to your tie, or to the suit itself. If you're going to coordinate it with another article of clothing, it should be your shirt. In general, you should go with a fold that you like and think looks good. However, there are times when one style or another will be preferable. Certain folds, like the three-point or crown fold, are better suited to formal settings. The square fold, basic double peak and other simple folds, on the other hand, are more versatile and can be worn to just about any event.  The fold you use should be dictated by the image your attire presents as well as where you'll be wearing it.  One important thing to keep in mind is that a fold that's too fancy can actually become a distraction.

Like text messages but they don't cost money. It's also possible to send files over instant messaging, though you still need to know who to contact. If you use Linux, then you might have an IM client like Pidgin or Thunderbird already installed. On Windows, you're probably out of luck. BitTorrent is a peer-to-peer file-sharing program. Instead of way to communicating with a central server, BitTorrent reaches out to your peers (people just like you!). It's a great way to download files quickly. Although it has earned its reputation as a piracy tool, there are many files that can be legally torrented, including some browsers. You'll need to find it first, though – which might be hard without a browser. Despite its name, telnet has nothing to do with telephone lines. It's just a simple, two-way text communications protocol, mostly used for command-line applications. While it's technically possible to download stuff over telnet, it's not common to actually do this. The Network News Transfer Protocol (NNTP) is an application protocol that moves Usenet news articles—net news—between news servers. People also use it to read and post articles by end user client applications. Web forums effectively replaced Usenet. You can explore all the Newsgroups without needed to "know the right people," like you would with all the above protocols, and you can probably find a browser if you look hard enough. However, it may be difficult to get access to a server at first. Many servers charge money to access Usenet. There are many non-browser tools that use the Web. Some file explorers will download files if given a Web address. Curl and wget are command-line tools that can access files from FTP, HTTP, and HTTPS. They will download a file from the Web, but they can't render pages. On a system with the curl or wget installed, one of these commands will download Firefox for Linux:  wget: 'https://download.mozilla.org/?product=firefox-40.0-SSL&os=linux64&lang=en-US'  curl:...
