Probably the easiest way to look confident is to have a confident demeanor. If you are slouched over, no one will believe in you. Making yourself tall communicates victory, like you just won a competition.  Body language (nonverbal communication) makes up 60% to 93% of how others perceive you.. Maintain good posture in both seated and standing positions. The more space your body takes up, the more confidence you appear to have. To take up space, do things like roll your shoulders back, keep your head held high, and place your hands on your hips. Gesture when you speak. Not only will moving your hands with your speech make you take up more space, it will make you seem like you feel convicted about what you are saying—meaning you look confident. No matter if you are meeting for the first time or meeting up with old friends, keeping steady eye contact makes others think you are confident. Less confident people tend to look away frequently. Less confident people look away because eye contact makes us feel like we are under scrutiny, thus being judged and possibly rejected. Resist the urge to look away even if you don't feel confident. Offering your hand before the person you're meeting does displays a show of confidence. It shows you are not afraid to meet new people, encouraging others to have confidence in you.  Don't hold the other person's hand too firmly nor too limply. Shake the hand for two or three seconds before releasing.  Accompany your handshake with eye contact and a smile. Both moving about a room and speaking slowly allow you time to think about what you're doing or going to say. This purposeful movement makes people think of you in terms of power, like a lion might look. Don't jump or startle easily. This behavior mimics animals like cockroaches instead of lions, repelling others. Called “fronting,” this stance of facing your torso and toes toward a person is a sign of respect. You also look focused and like you've got it together. Make sure to maintain this stance throughout a full conversation.

Probably the most important thing a doctor can do to reduce ticklishness in patients during physical exams is clearly communicating their intentions before they do anything. Tell your doctor about your self-perceived level of ticklishness before getting touched. Ask if they use lighter or deeper palpation (touches) while conducting exams so you can prepare yourself for it.  Ask your doctor to tell you where and when they're going to touch you before they do. Removing anticipation often eliminates ticklishness. Ask your doctor to be particularly careful of your highly ticklish areas, such as your underarms, lower abdomen, groin and/or feet. Always maintain professionalism in order to prevent any sexual or flirtatious undertones, which can cause nervousness / anxiety / arousal and trigger ticklishness. Although most doctors are busy and don't always have the luxury of taking lots of time for physical exams, it's helpful for making patients feel more comfortable and potentially less ticklish. An unrushed purposeful touch is usually better received than a hurried and clumsy touch. It's also best for your doctor to start your medical exam by feeling less sensitive areas and then concluding with the more sensitive spots.  The back (spine) is typically one of the least ticklish areas for touching, examining, massaging, etc, whereas the abdomen and feet are often the most sensitive. With thoughtful and purposeful sequencing during a physical exam, your doctor can make it easier for you to develop a level of comfort and confidence before having to endure being touched in your more sensitive body parts. A ticklish / jumpy patient can waste a lot of valuable time, so your doctor shouldn't mind spending a little more time initially making you feel more comfortable in order to save time in the long run. Another cause of ticklish and jumpy behavior in patients is being touched by cold or wet hands. As such, it's important that doctors keep their hands warm and dry during physical exams, regardless of the time of year or...

Probably the most natural way to start a conversation with a woman is to comment on something that's happening around you. See someone do something nice for someone else? "Man, you don't see enough of that these days." Someone out on the dance floor making a fool of himself? "See, that's exactly why I'm not out there dancing." Be friendly and be casual. It's as simple as that. Another good way to break into a conversation with a woman is to ask her a question. Avoid the cliché "Do you know what time it is?" because they'll know what you're really after and it makes you seem sleazy. Again, approach it just like starting a conversation with anyone else.  If you're at a restaurant: "I just can't decide what to eat tonight so I'm leaving it up to fate: what do you recommend for dinner?" If you're out where there's music: "Do you know what song this is? I don't normally listen to this kind of music, but I really like this song." If you're at school: "Do you know where the ______ building is?" ..but not on what she expects. If she's even remotely attractive, she probably has a guy hitting on at least every time she goes out. You're just going to be one more weirdo to avoid unless you set yourself apart. Don't compliment her appearance. Instead, compliment her on something she doesn't expect but will appreciate. If she has buttons on her bag, an item that's clearly hand made, or a book you read and enjoyed, these are better sources for compliments because you're complimenting something that's uniquely her instead of what might as well be just about any woman's hair or eyes. Let her catch you looking at her with a confused expression. After a minute or so, go up to her and say something like, "I'm really sorry, but I just can't remember your name. I know I've met you before, but I can't figure out where. I didn't want to be rude and have you think I was ignoring you." Play it off that you just wanted to come over for a quick hello, maybe play a short game of figuring out where you've met before, and then seem about...

Probably the most straight-forward way to see Antarctica is from above. You can book yourself on a sightseeing flight over Antarctica which enables you to see its great white landscape from the comfort of a plane. Taking a sightseeing flight is a good option for day-trippers who want to spend a few hours over Antarctica and get back the same day. You can enjoy the views while Antarctica experts give talks on the plane and you are served food and drink.  Australia is now the only place you can take these flights from.  You need to plan ahead if you want to do this and book early. If you want to get up and close and see the wildlife this is not the choice for you. Depending on your seats, tickets will cost anything from $1,000 to $8,000. If you want to touch down on Antarctica, there are a number of companies that offer this service, leaving from a variety of places. Where you choose to go from will depend on the rest of your trip, so think about whether it would be better to travel from Australia, Chile, South Africa or Argentina and fully investigate the schedules from each place. Bear in mind that flights to Antarctica are much less frequent and less predictable than ordinary flights.  Some adventure holiday companies have deals which involve landing on Antarctica and skiing, camping and climbing.  You can fly to King George Island from Punta Arenas in Chile and stay overnight at a camp there for tourists. Another option is a fly-cruise package, which cuts down the time spent on a ship (avoiding the notoriously rough Drake Passage), but still enables you to get a close-up view of the landscape and wildlife. You can fly to King George Island, and then get aboard a ship which will take you around the area..  This could be a good option if you want to see the ice and wildlife up close, but don’t want to spend so much time travelling on board a cruise ship. But it won’t be any cheaper. Expect to pay something in the region of $10,000 to $14,000 for a two-week trip. Be aware that flights are subject to...

Probably the most straightforward method of alleviating abdominal pain from gas accumulation is getting rid of it by passing the gas (also called flatulating or farting). Most peoples and cultures regard passing gas in public as bad manners, so be discreet about it and go to the bathroom to pass gas. To help facilitate passing gas, go for a leisurely walk outside and/or lightly massage your abdomen in a downward manner, which may help push the gas out of your large intestine.  The gas produced by fermenting bacteria in your large intestine is a combination of nitrogen, carbon dioxide, methane and sulfur compounds — which contribute to the foul odor.  Flatulence often becomes more common with age, often due to a decreased production of digestive enzymes. Another way to pass gas, albeit from the opposite end, is by burping or belching. Although you don't make much impact on lower intestinal gas by belching, it can certainly get rid of excess gas in the stomach and upper intestinal tract. Accumulation of air in the stomach can occur from gulping liquids or eating food too quickly, drinking through a straw, chewing gum and smoking. The accumulated air can be relieved easily, quickly and painlessly by belching. Although drinking too much carbonated liquid can cause bloating, a few sips of something fizzy is helpful for promoting belching and gas release.  Natural remedies sometimes used to encourage belching include ginger, papaya, lemon juice and peppermint. Much like passing gas, many peoples and cultures (but not all) regard loudly belching in public as bad manners, so act accordingly. Some foods have a tendency to create intestinal gas because they are difficult to digest or contain compounds that irritate the stomach or intestines. Common gas-causing or bloating foods include beans, peas, lentils, cabbage, onions, broccoli, cauliflower, prunes, and mushrooms. Eating too much insoluble fiber (found in most veggies and the skins of some fruits), fructose sugar (found in all fruit, particularly sweet berries)...

Problems with self-esteem often arise due to some external stressor or crisis. While you might not be able to prevent this, you can have some control over how you think about things. When you feel negative thoughts popping up, stop and turn them into something more positive.  When you think something self-critical (such as “I’m so stupid”), ask yourself questions like: “Is it true? Would I say it to/about someone else? Do I gain anything by thinking this? What would I gain if I stopped thinking this way?” Focus on subtly rephrasing thoughts so that they put more emphasis on how to view a situation positively. For instance, instead of thinking “I won’t let myself be so distracted at school any more,” try saying to yourself “I am going to develop my work ethic.” Try this simple exercise. Fold a piece of paper in half. On one side, write any negative thoughts you may have about yourself. On the other side, write a corresponding positive thought to replace each negative one. No one can succeed at everything all of the time. Failure is a part of life. You can, however, recognize and feel good about your effort when you try hard at something. You can also think about how you can learn from mistakes. For instance, if you don’t do well on an exam (even if you studied hard), take a moment to recognize your effort. You probably did better than if you hadn’t studied at all, and you can review your mistakes to find out how to improve in the future. Your body and mind often suggest what you need to do, and listening to your needs can help you feel better. This might mean something as simple as getting more sleep if you feel tired. However, listening to yourself also means trusting and following your thoughts and instincts. For instance, if you find yourself constantly thinking about moving to be closer to family, that might be something important for you to do. Life is often very competitive, but it is important to set standards for yourself rather than trying to match everyone else. Recognize that everyone isn’t the best...

Processing time can take longer than expected if you're missing a document or left something off of your application. Leave plenty of time for the Passport Service to go over your paperwork and request any corrections. Processing time often takes 15 to 20 business days, but it may take longer if the office is hit with a bunch of applications at once. The fastest way to apply for a passport in Ireland is at a Passport Express in a post office or Garda station, though you'll pay an extra fee of about 10 euros. You can also pick up an application at a Passport Office. The 2 passport offices are located at 1a South Mall, Cork, Ireland and Knockmaun House, 42-47 Lower Mount Street, Dublin 2, D02 TN83, Ireland. If you're applying for a passport in another country, you'll need to visit the local Irish consulate. The consulate will handle your passport application once you fill it out.

Products are available in powder and a liquid forms. Both contain abrasive particles, but the liquid version already dilutes some of the abrasive material, making it a gentler option. For tough stains, the powder product is going to give a deeper scrub and be more effective.  Look for cleansers which are labeled as being safe for use on enamel. Avoid scouring powders like Ajax and products with high acidic content like Vinegar.  Be sure that the cleanser you choose for a bathtub is 100% water soluble so it does not build up in the tub and cause a slippery surface. Wipe the surface area of the stain with a wet rag. Pour cleanser over the stain. Scrub gently with a wet cloth adding pressure as you go if the stain is tough to remove. Once the stain is removed, rinse all of the cleanser from the surface using warm water. If simply adding the cleanser and scrubbing does not remove your stain, let the cleanser sit before you scrub the stain away. Add the cleanser to a wet surface, spread it over the stain with a wet cloth, then let it sit on the surface for 1-10 minutes depending on the intensity of the stain.  The product will dry during this process, but is still easily removed with a wet cloth. If you are leaving the product for more than one minute, test it on a small, inconspicuous area before using this technique on a large surface. Thoroughly rinse the cleanser from the surface once you have finished.

Products such as Stingose and After Bite may help to alleviate pain. Hydrocortisone cream and calamine lotion may also help reduce itching and swelling. Follow the instructions accompanying the product. If you can't find one, talk to your pharmacist. The aspirin will help relieve the pain and reduce the symptoms of swelling and itching. Naturally, do not use this method if the person is allergic to aspirin. Alternatively, make a paste out of Tums tablets. This will also help with the itching. The alcohol can have a cooling effect, which can temporarily relieve itchiness. It is also drying, which can cause the bites to shrink and reduce swelling. This can work like a charm to relieve itching. Regular flavored toothpaste is the best option for this method. Rub it on and let it dry overnight. Then, wash it off in the morning with cold water and mild soap. The toothpaste will dry the bite out, and may remove irritation. Use any non-gel toothpaste. Gel toothpaste is not suitable for this method. Wash the area using soap and water. Soap may be enough to relieve the itching. Use a mild soap, so as to not dry out the skin and increase irritation.

Professional dancing is an incredibly demanding, competitive line of work. You need to be realistic about your chances at success. Even if you do all the right things and work very hard, you may not make it professionally. You need to prepare yourself emotionally for not making it. Injuries are common in the world of professional and amateur dance. Ballet is a highly physical art and you may end up with sore hips and ankles. Some injuries may prevent from dancing for a certain period of time. Talk to a doctor throughout your dancing career in order to make sure you're taking care of yourself. While injury can happen to anyone, taking care of your body through adequate stretching and rest can make it less likely. As stated, the world of professional dancing is grueling. After a certain point, you may need to accept that you'll need an alternative career route. In college and high school, take coursework in subject areas that interest you. Look for internships in fields outside of dancing. You'll need to work on honing a skill set that goes beyond professional dance in case you need a backup plan.

Professional organizers are hired by clients to tackle organization problems that require an outside perspective to solve. Some projects, such as de-cluttering a home office or facilitating a family's move to a new home, have a definite end date, while others, such as working with a business to implement a new filing system, may require ongoing attention.  As you prepare to become a professional organizer, think about what type of organizing you are best at, and consider the following services you might offer your clients:  Spatial organization. Some professional organizers excel at making clients' homes more livable. They are able to look at a room and intuit the best way to maximize space and increase its functionality. Systems organization. Professional organizers often help clients see a new system to organize their finances or files. In a business setting, the organizer's goal is to help the company increase productivity and profits by becoming better organized.  Planning and goals organization. Professional organizers are adept at seeing the big picture when their clients cannot. They teach people new ways to organize their life planning and meet life goals, whatever they may be. Professional organizers are exceptionally organized, yes, but just as importantly, they love working with people. Professional organizers are called upon when their clients need help. The ability to listen carefully to people's concerns and be truly invested in helping them solve problems is essential. Part of professional organizers' job satisfaction is seeing that their work has tangibly improved their clients' lives.  Teaching, or coaching, is often central to a professional organizer's work.

Professional wrestlers often use a persona while competing. First, choose whether you’ll be a “good guy” or a “bad guy.” Next, create a heavily exaggerated personality for your character. For example, if you’re a bad guy, you could be a loud, angry clown with an unreasonable love for flamingos.  Give your character a crazy backstory to help you craft a memorable persona. Alternatively, create your persona by exaggerating aspects of your existing personality. For example, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson plays a more intense version of himself on stage. Your character’s name should reflect their personality. Think of what kinds of names would be meaningful to your character. For example, the angry, flamingo-loving clown might be called “Pinkie.” Other great names include:  “The Ogre” for a large, unpleasant-looking bad guy “Sir Lancelot” for a charming, medieval-themed good guy “Earthquake” for a large, powerful man of few words. Many famous wrestlers have signature movements that set them apart from their peers. Stand out from the crowd by inventing character-specific poses that you can strike throughout a wrestling match. For example:  “The Ogre” might shout insults at the crowd every time he hurts the “good guy” “Sir Lancelot” may throw roses out into the crowd as he enters the ring “Earthquake” might stomp his feet and yell before each match Contact a wrestling outfit manufacturer when you’re ready to choose an outfit. Do an online search to find a manufacturer or talk to your instructor for recommendations. These manufacturers will be able to help you design a good outfit based off of your name and your persona. However, be prepared to wait a few weeks for your costume to be finished. These costumes are often expensive. However, if you use a ready-made costume, your look won’t be unique or memorable.

Progesterone cream is a fat-soluble substance, which makes it easily absorbed through the skin. It is best to choose spots on your body that have the greatest amounts of capillary blood, because it will be absorbed most quickly. There are many different spots that will work. You can rub small amounts of the cream into your neck, face, breasts, chest, and the insides of your hands. In order to avoid a particular area of your body becoming saturated, mix up the application spots each day. For example, do not apply to your neck both in the morning and the evening. If you have trouble remembering which spot you used last, just make a note and stick it to your bathroom mirror. That will serve as an easy reminder. When trying to become pregnant, you will typically need 30-40 milligrams of progesterone per day. The cream can easily be used to supplement what your body is supplying. Most creams come with instructions to apply about 20 milligrams twice a day. That is an amount about the size of 1/4 of a teaspoon. Make sure to discuss your specific fertility issues with your doctor to determine if progesterone cream will be right for you.Talk to your doctor if you have amenorrhea or a lack of a menstruation cycle. For women with amenorrhea (no period), it can be more difficult to use progesterone cream, as calculation of when to start the cream can be complicated.

Projector mounts vary in what they attach to (i.e. ceiling or wall); whether they include piping or arms that help with adjusting the height of your image; and what type/size/weight of projector they can hold. You’ll need to keep all of these things in mind while choosing a mount.  Buy something sturdy and high quality; poor quality projectors are more likely to drift over time, causing your projector (and the image) to move out of alignment with the screen.  You may need to buy adapters for your mount depending upon your ceiling type. For a suspended ceiling (one that is dropped down from the structural ceiling, and thus will be unable to support heavy loads), buy a suspended ceiling kit. For a cathedral ceiling (high and arched), purchase a cathedral ceiling adapter. Attach the appropriate mount to the projector. Follow the instructions that come with the mount kit and the projector. Make sure that the mount plate is level with the projector once attached, before moving on. Ensure that the entire mount is attached to the projector before securing it to the wall/ceiling. Use a tape measure to determine the distance between the center of the mount and the front of the projector’s lens. Add this length to the acceptable range of distances between the projector's lens and the screen (i.e. the throw distance). If the mount-to-lens distance is 6 in., the new total for an original throw distance of 16 ft. is 16.5 ft. Use a  stud finder to locate a ceiling stud within the appropriate range of screen-to-projector distances. Secure the mount to the stud with a screwdriver, wrench and 2 lag bolts.  Lag bolts (aka lag screws) are fasteners with flat, hexagonal heads and threaded, cylindrical shafts. They can be screwed directly into wood. They can also be screwed into concrete when used with an insert called a lag. The lag bolts for your projector installation should be 3 in. (7.6 cm) long and 0.3125 in. (7.9 mm) wide (unless otherwise stated by your mount manual). To use a stud finder you simply run it along the wall...

Promise yourself that you'll wait 48 hours before doing anything. Remember, thoughts don’t have the power to force you to act. Sometimes extreme pain can distort our perception. Waiting before taking action will give your mind time to clear. Suicidal thoughts can feel overwhelming, and there’s no reason to fight them alone. Ask a professional for help by calling emergency services or contacting a suicide hotline. These services have trained people ready to listen to you and offer help 24/7. Suicidal thoughts and impulses are very serious. Asking for help is a sign of strength.   These services are free and anonymous. You can also call 911 (US), 999 (UK), or your emergency services number to be connected with a trained professional. If you are a university student, your university may have a suicide prevention line, often through campus police. If you have called for help and are still experiencing suicidal thoughts, you need to go to the emergency room. Ask someone you trust to drive you, or call emergency services.  In the United States, it’s illegal for emergency rooms to turn you away in an emergency, even if you don’t have health insurance or can’t pay.  You can also look up mental health crisis centers or suicide prevention clinics in a directory. You may find low-cost options there. Your risk of suicide is increased if you’re alone with suicidal thoughts. Don’t bottle them up or keep them to yourself. Call someone you love and trust and share your thoughts with them.

Proper dining techniques are most important in formal settings, such as when you’re having an interview or meeting, trying to impress someone, eating at a fine dining establishment, or in some other circumstance when proper etiquette is expected.  In formal settings, there is often a salad course that comes either before the entrée (American style) or after the main dish (European style). The salad course in a formal meal usually consists of a basic salad, such as a green salad or Caesar salad, that includes a combination of lettuce, vegetables, croutons, dressing, and possibly meat or cheese. When a server brings you your salad, do not move away or to the side when the plate is placed in front of you. Someone may come around to offer you freshly grated cheese or freshly ground pepper for your salad. It is acceptable to say yes to one or both, but be sure to indicate to the server when to stop. Never add salt or pepper to your own salad (or any course) until you’ve tasted it first. A place setting will be laid out with the utensils in order based on the dishes that will be served. If you are unsure which utensils are for which dish, follow this simple rule: work from the outside in. When your salad is served, use the fork and knife at the outermost edge of your place setting. They will be taken away after the salad course, and then you will move on to the next set of cutlery. When the lettuce and vegetables aren’t cut up into bite-sized pieces, it is acceptable to eat your salad with a knife and fork. Alternatively, if the salad is mostly in smaller pieces, you can use your fork alone to eat. When using just your fork, you can turn it on its side and use the side of the fork to cut a piece of lettuce or vegetable into a smaller piece before eating it. Don’t cut up your entire salad at once; instead, eat each bite as you cut it. Make sure they are small bites, so that you don’t end up with too large a mouthful of food, or a forkful that is too large to fit into your mouth. When you are ready to eat, bring your...

Proper land use-procedures dictate that you should not build near mountain edges, steep slopes, or natural erosion valleys. These areas are prone to landslides. Landslides tend to happen in the same area where they have occurred before. Talk to local officials about landslides in your area. If you are in an at-risk area, consider getting a site analysis of your property. This will help you determine any necessary corrective measures. You should be especially attuned to landslide warning signs if you live in an at-risk area. Retaining walls, channels, and deflection walls can shield your property from landslide debris and divert debris flow. If you live in an area that is vulnerable to landslides, consult a professional to see what should be done. Beware—if your channels or deflection walls cause debris to flow into a neighbor’s property, you may have to pay for damages. If your area is vulnerable to landslides, talk to an insurance agent to see if your insurance covers landslide-related damage. Although landslide insurance is not usually available, some flood insurance policies cover damage from landslide flows. An emergency kit contains the essentials that your household will need during an emergency. Make your kit in advance so it is ready at a moment’s notice. Your kit should contain enough food and water to last for at least 72 hours, as well as supplies like medications, flashlights, batteries, cell phones, copies of personal documents, and cash.  Remember that landslides can cut off services like electricity, sewage treatment, gas, water, and telephones. Pack supplies in your kit that will allow you to deal with these outages.

Especially if you're particularly accident-prone, having a hard-shell case for your laptop will prevent damage from minor falls or spills when your laptop is shut. You might also want to invest in a specific laptop bag (or a backpack with a dedicated laptop compartment) if you travel often. Unfortunately, factory laptop batteries tend to have reduced lifespans, so your laptop's battery life will usually not match the factory estimates. Battery life reduces each time you have to charge it, so consider keeping your laptop plugged into a power cable until you absolutely have to use the battery. When using your laptop, try to recreate the best possible conditions by doing the following:  Make sure your hands are clean before using your laptop. Place your laptop on a clean, dust-free surface. Make sure the laptop is well-ventilated by ensuring that the vents are clear of obstructions. Keep your environment at a neutral temperature. Use a dehumidifier if your climate is exceptionally humid. Taking a few minutes to clean your computer of dust, grime, residue, and so on will make a huge difference in your laptop's lifespan. Focus on the following:  Keyboard Vents Screen Peripherals are items you plug into your laptop; these can include USB flash drives or accessories, headphone or speaker cables, adapters, and even the power cable. Many of these items have specific ports or locations into which they fit, so pay attention to the shape and size of an item's connector before plugging it into its respective port. Not only do the insides of cars experience large temperature swings that could damage a laptop, but a laptop (or laptop bag) is an inviting target for a thief. This can push the LCD screen...

Protein helps build muscle, but it's important to choose higher-fat options. These poultry, fish, legumes, nuts, eggs, and full-fat dairy products. Go for these instead of processed meats, like bacon.  The right amount of protein per day depends on your age, sex, and activity level. In general, go for at least 5 1⁄2 to 6 1⁄2 oz (160 to 180 g) of per day. For example, have 4 oz (110 g) of grilled chicken over a salad for lunch, and 3 ounces (85 g) of salmon for dinner.  If you're highly active, you might need even more daily protein. Learn more about your specific requirements at https://www.choosemyplate.gov. Fruits and veggies are packed with essential nutrients, and they can fill you up without adding extra calories. Your required amount depends on your age, sex, and activity level. In general, go for about 2  c (470 mL) of fruits and 3  c (710 mL) of veggies per day. When you're hungry between meals, grab a healthy snack, like a banana, apple, or carrot sticks. Grains are rich in fiber and fuel your muscles, so go for brown rice, quinoa, and whole grain breads, pastas, and cereals. Try to consume around 6 to 8 oz (170 to 230 g) of grains per day; half that amount should be whole grains. You might have heard that you need to cut carbs to lose weight. Consider a ketogenic diet, at least temporarily, if you need to lose fat. If you're not following a ketogenic diet, healthy grains are an important part of your diet, and they provide your muscles with the resources needed to grow. Just don't overeat them. You won't see a 6 pack any time soon if you get most of your calories from processed foods, sweets, and fast food. If you need to satisfy your sweet tooth, swap pastries, ice cream, and other unhealthy snacks for peanut butter, Greek yogurt, and fruit. Additionally, steer clear of unhealthy snacks, like chips, and processed meats, such as deli meats and bacon. instead of high-calorie drinks. Staying hydrated is important for your overall health, especially if you've started exercising more often. Furthermore,...

Protein is an important nutrient that supports your bone and muscle health so you stay strong. Look for lean sources of protein, such as fish, chicken, eggs, and beans, to include in your diet so your muscles continue to grow. When you choose to snack, look for high protein options, such as Greek yogurt, jerky, or nuts. To determine how many grams of protein to include in your diet, multiply your body weight in pounds by 0.36. For example, a person that weighs 130 pounds (59 kg) needs 46.8 grams of protein. Dark leafy greens, such as spinach, kale, and arugula, all provide you with vitamins and minerals that are important for promoting heart health so you can last longer in a fight. You can also include other vegetables, such as onions, tomatoes, broccoli, and carrots into your diet for additional vitamins and minerals. Aim to have about 2-3 servings of vegetables each day so you can stay healthy.  Try other vegetables in your diet, like brussel sprouts, asparagus, and peppers for additional nutrients. Vegetables can also give you more energy so your endurance is higher while you’re fighting. Complex carbs haven’t been stripped of nutrients or vitamins and offer a healthier option than refined carbs. Look for whole grains, such as wheat bread, wild rice, or quinoa and include at least 2-3 servings of them in your diet each day. You can also get carbs from fruits and vegetables, dairy products, and nuts. Avoid processed foods and sugars since they aren’t as nutritious as other meals. Healthy fats give you more energy and help reduce your hunger and help you lose weight if you’re trying to get fit. Healthy fats include peanut butter, avocados, salmon, beans, and nuts, so you can incorporate them into any meal throughout the day. Try to include about 45-75 grams of healthy fats into your diet each day so you can continue getting the nutrients you need. Avoid having food high in trans fat or saturated fat, such as fried foods, butter, red meat, and salty snack foods. Training for a fight can cause you to sweat...

Protein is important for maintaining a healthy scalp and hair. Try to eat proteins that have other important nutrients for scalp health, like, zinc, iron, and vitamin B. Good examples of these include beef, eggs, shrimp, bacon, pumpkin seeds, cottage cheese, and salmon. Vitamin A and C help circulate oxygen to the scalp. To include these nutrients in your diet, eat blueberries, carrots, sweet potatoes, spinach, walnuts, and bell peppers All of these foods include several nutrients that are conducive to a healthy scalp. You can also supplement your diet with daily multivitamins.  For vitamin C eat more bell peppers, blueberries, and dark leafy vegetables. For vitamin A eat sweet potatoes, dark leafy vegetables, and carrots. Zinc will help keep hair on your head and dandruff off it. Folic acid will encourage cell renewal in your scalp. Iron helps prevent thinning and discoloration of your hair. Good sources of these nutrients include oysters, peas, lentils, and prunes.  For additional iron eat more beef, chicken liver, oysters, clams, mussels, and sardines.  For additional zinc eat more oysters, crab, lobster, meat, legumes, nuts, dairy products, and fortified cereals.  For additional folic acid eat more asparagus, broccoli, beans, lentils, avocado, okra, nuts, seeds, cauliflower, and carrots. Sugar consumption can aggravate a case of dandruff. Cut down on sodas, baked goods, and candy. Many processed foods also include a lot of sugar.

Protein is important for maintaining weight and increasing muscle mass. It can also provide healthy calories. Make sure not to eat fatty, unhealthy meats and a lot of red meat. Both of these can be unhealthy due to the high amounts of saturated fat.  For example, add in calories from eggs, lean chicken and turkey, and fish. You can even eat natural bacon that is nitrate free. For non-meat options, try Greek yogurt or cottage cheese, which are good sources of protein. Nuts also contain protein and can be put easily into snacks or meals. Consider adding healthy fats to your diet to give you nutritious extra calories. Fats found in fish, nut and seed oils, and nuts are good for your heart health. Make sure you are eating omega-3 fatty acids, monounsaturated fats, and polyunsaturated fats.  Try fats in the form of avocado, nuts and seeds, and olive and coconut oil. You can also eat fatty fish, like salmon and tuna. Spread nut butter on an apple or whole grain English muffin, or eat avocado on a sandwich. Healthy carbs are a good way to add calories and nutrients to your diet. Avoid refined carbs, like white bread, white pasta, cakes, donuts, pastries, and cookies. Instead, opt for whole wheat bread, whole wheat pasta, brown rice, quinoa, barley, and millet. Add a serving of quinoa or brown rice to your meals. Eat a bowl of oatmeal topped with fruit and nuts with your breakfast. Put some nut butter on a piece of whole wheat toast. Smoothies can be a good way to increase calories the healthy way. You can put plain or Greek yogurt and fruit together for a sweet, nutrient-dense treat. You may also consider adding milk. Just pour whatever fruit you have into the blender with the yogurt and milk.  You can also add a teaspoon of coconut oil for a slight coconut flavor and added healthy fat and calories. Make a smoothie with peanut butter for some extra calories.

Protein is the name of the game when it comes to building muscle — it's what your body uses to construct new, stronger muscle fibers out of your old ones. For this reason, anyone aiming to get big should make sure they're eating enough lean protein. Workout resources generally recommend about 40-60 grams of protein for most adults' meals (more if you are exceptionally large already.) For the most muscle-building benefit in the smallest caloric package, try to prioritize lean protein sources. A few examples include:  White meat chicken Leaner cuts of pork and beef Beans Lentils Tofu, soy, etc. Egg whites Low-fat dairy products Carbohydrates get a bad rap today, but truthfully they're absolutely vital for a healthy, energetic lifestyle. Whole-wheat carbohydrates provide filling, long-lasting energy that keeps you going throughout the day (including during your workout. Most workout resources recommend eating about 40-80 grams of carbohydrates per meal.  Carbohydrates made from whole-wheat grains are preferable to those that aren't — whole wheat products incorporate the entire kernel of wheat, which contains more nutrients and protein than "white" breads and the like, which tend to go heavy on sugar. Examples of healthy carbs include:  Whole wheat breads, pastas, crackers, etc. Brown rice Quinoa Steel-cut or old-fashioned oats Beans and legumes   In addition, most fruits and vegetables qualify as healthy carbohydrates (especially green leafy vegetables) and are rich in vitamins and minerals. Contrary to popular belief, "fat" is not a dirty word in the world of fitness. In fact, consuming a small amount of fat each day is a great way to build up a small, healthy reserve of energy (which can be a big help during a tough workout.) It's important, however, to moderate your fat intake — you'll only need about 5-10 grams per meal. Some sources of fat are healthier than others. Avoid processed fats, which you'll usually find in snack foods and which tend to lack nutrients. Instead, try one of these healthy fat sources:...

Provide a small, shallow water bowl for your gecko and fill it with fresh, chlorine free water once a day. The water dish should go on the cool side of the tank. Your gecko may drink from it and/or use it as a spot to bath. Most geckos will drink water droplets from daily misting, rather than from their water bowl. Always give your gecko de-chlorinated water, as distilled water can cause medical issues for your gecko due to its lack of nutrients and minerals. Avoid giving your gecko untreated tap water, as it can be unhealthy for your gecko. A baby gecko, or young gecko, will need to be fed five to six times a week. Your gecko should have a diet that is high in protein, consisting of crickets, mealworms, waxworms, silkworms, and roaches. The insects should be no longer than the width of your gecko’s head to ensure he can stomach them. If any uneaten insects survive, somehow, and are roaming around in the tank, remove them, as they can end up chewing on your gecko’s skin and eyes. You should gut load the insects, feeding them a nutritious diet about 24 hours before offering them to your gecko. Then, give the gut loaded insects to your gecko. Do not give your gecko wild caught insects, as they can carry diseases. You should dust your gecko’s food with a calcium supplement before giving it to him. A growing gecko should be dusted more often than an adult gecko. You can ask your veterinarian for exact instructions on how much supplement you should dust on your gecko’s food to avoid over-supplementing the food. Opt for a calcium supplement fortified with vitamin D3 and dust it on two to three time a week. Do not use a calcium supplement with added phosphorous, unless specified by your vet.

Provide a somewhat large and deep bird bath. This is important, as small bird baths that may work for other birds aren’t large enough to accommodate most owls. Ultimately, without a clean water source, you won’t be able to attract owls.  If you have a nearby pond, stream, or similar source of natural water, you won’t need to provide water. The larger the source of water, the farther from the box it can be. If the only source is a small bird bath, try to position it within several hundred feet of the box. While it may seem like something you don’t want to do, by providing food for rodents (like grain and corn), you’ll help attract owls. This is because owls rely heavily on rodents as a source of food. Without a proper food source, owls won’t move onto your property. By using pesticides or other poisons to kill rodents or insects, you’ll inadvertently poison owls around your home. This is because rodents will feed on poisoned insects and then be eaten by owls – poisoning them, too. By using poison on your property, you’ll make a huge – and devastating – impact on the owl population in the area.

Providing a distinct label and title for each visual element allows you to refer to it in your text. Using spatial references in your text can cause problems since your report may not print the same way.  This is particularly important if you're submitting your report for publication in a trade journal. If the pages are different sizes than the paper you print your report on, your visual elements won't line up the same way in the journal as they do in your manuscript. This also can be a factor if your report will be published online, since different display sizes can cause visual elements to display differently. The easiest way to label your visual elements is "Figure," followed by a number. Then you simply number each element sequentially in the order in which they appear in your report. Your title describes the information presented by the visual element. For example, if you've created a bar graph that shows the test scores of students on the chemistry class final, you might title it "Chemistry Final Test Scores, Fall 2016." If your visual elements look sloppy and cluttered on the page, they will be difficult for your readers. Visual elements should enhance the readability of your report, not detract from it.  Make sure each visual element is large enough in size that your readers can see everything they need to see without squinting. If you have to shrink down a graph to the point that readers can't make out the labels, it won't be very helpful to them. Create your visual elements using a format that you can easily import into your word-processing file. Importing using some graphics formats can distort the image or result in extremely low resolution. When creating a chart or graph, it should be readable and easily understandable at a glance. If it's too cluttered with data, or the range is too broad, your readers won't get much out of it.  For example, if you have hundreds of samples, your x axis will be cluttered if you display each sample individually as a bar. However, you can move the measure on the y...

Pruning may seem counterintuitive, but is actually incredibly beneficial in aiding new growth on peach trees.  Pruning your peach trees produces new growth, which in turn produces more fruit. Therefore, pruning yields a larger crop over time. Peach trees need to be open to sunlight, as shaded branches won’t produce as much fruit. Pruning them opens up all branches to the sun. Removing dead parts of the tree is necessary so that new branches can come in. If you intend on spraying your tree with pesticides, pruning allows for an equal coverage over the entire plant. The best time to prune your peach trees is early spring, after the last major cold snap of winter. Avoid pruning in very cold weather though, as this can reduce the trees’ cold-hardiness and total output of fruit.  The best month for pruning is typically February, but adjust this time based on your local weather. Prune older trees before younger ones to allow time for the new growth. Avoid pruning when the trees are blooming or shortly after blooming, because this can negatively affect the new growth. Prune your peach trees at planting or at the next spring (if done in the fall). It is better to prune a little late in the year than a little early. Use pruning shears for smaller, more manageable branches. Remove large limbs with loppers or a pruning saw. Wound dressing is available to put on branches post-pruning, but has shown to have little to no effect in preventing fungal growth. When you are cutting back branches, it is best to follow the “cat tossing” rule. All the branches on your peach tree should be wide enough apart that a cat could be tossed between each of them without ever hitting a branch.  A total height of 8–9 feet (2.4–2.7 m) is preferred when the tree is at its maturation. Prune the tree low to start, to encourage outward growth instead of upward. For big, full fruit, remove up to 90% of all developing fruit. A healthy tree will produce much more than it is capable of carrying, and must have most of it removed for the best output.

Psoriasis remission occurs either spontaneously without any known cause or due to the right treatment. If you find the right treatment, your symptoms may temporarily disappear, which will put you into remission.  Finding the right treatment may take some time. Work with your doctor to try different treatments until you find one that works for you. The dosage and treatment prescribed by your doctor may affect how you achieve remission. When you find a treatment that puts your psoriasis into remission, it may work for a while. However, your body may adjust to the treatment or what you need for your condition may change. This means you may have to change treatments after a while. Work with your doctor to continue treating your psoriasis. If your symptoms return even while you are under the same treatment that has been working, your doctor can adjust your treatment to try to find one that will put you into remission again. If you find the right treatment, you may achieve remission. However, remission is only a temporary state for your psoriasis. Even if your symptoms go away, they will more than likely return. If your symptoms start to return, begin treatment again immediately. Early treatment can deal with the symptoms before they get too severe.

Psychic mediums perceive spirits in other dimensions using one or more of the following abilities:  Clairvoyance. Clairvoyant mediums can see spirits, auras, objects and places that are not perceptible to others. People who have passed away may appear to them in visions, or they may be able to vividly sense a place to which they have never been. Psychic mediums see these visions with their third eye, located between the two physical eyes. Everyone has a third eye, but the average person's is closed or too weak to use. Clairaudience. Clairaudient mediums can hear messages from the "other side," either physically or psychically. They can communicate with spirits that are thousands of miles away, or in another dimension altogether. Clairsentience . Clairsentient mediums experience psychic communication through pure knowing. They get surges of knowledge given from the spirits, that they then interpret. Everyone has some level of psychic abilities, which help us intuit other people's feelings and connect with our spiritual side. Consider the following questions to help you determine your level of psychic ability:  Are you a natural psychic medium? Some people begin seeing visions, hearing messages, or strongly feeling the presence of spirits from a very young age. They don't necessarily know what they are experiencing until they get older. The natural psychic mediumship is exceedingly rare. Are you clairvoyant, clairaudient, or clairsentient? Perhaps you feel on the cusp of developing abilities in one of these areas. You're sensitive and receptive to feelings, emotions, and communications from others, and you've had experiences that you consider to be paranormal. Are you interested in becoming a psychic medium, but have never had a paranormal experience? It's possible to work on particular skills and open up the possibility of flexing your psychic muscles. With some practice, you may be able to open and strengthen your third eye. One of the best ways to figure out whether you have the capacity to become a psychic...

Psychological and psychiatric tests are similar to medical tests in that a doctor or mental health professional looks at your symptoms and orders a test to understand the underlying cause. These tests may check for certain character traits, developmental problems, emotional disorders, or physical problems. For example, if a child has difficulty in school, they may be tested for a learning disability. A person who feels down, lethargic, or like they can’t get out of bed may be tested for emotional disorders. Many psychological tests are formal questionnaires and checklists that contain standardized questions. Generally, your answers are ranked and given a score. This score correlates to a potential psychological problem or underlying character trait. These questionnaires generally ask about how you feel, like if you feel sad, hopeless, or nervous often. They also may ask about your emotional responses to things, like if you get angry or upset when things happen, and your sleeping patterns. During your assessment, the mental health professional may want to know more about your health. This may include any illnesses or problems you have had in the past, any treatments you have undergone, and any current medications you are taking. For example, you may tell them if you have mental illness in your family. You can also share health conditions like cancer, diabetes, high blood pressure, or any other condition.

Psychologists define authenticity as manifestation of a person's true self in their everyday lives. Basically, it means that your core self is reflected in what you believe, say, and do everyday. People who are real accept themselves and all of their strengths as well as their weaknesses. They behave in ways that align with their values and avoid behaviors that do not fit neatly with their values. At its core, authenticity is about being real and genuine.  The first step to being real begins when you actively decide to be genuine. This has to be a conscious decision. You will also have to commit to acting in accordance with who you are even though sometimes this will be challenging and you will feel vulnerable. Realness may require you to do things that will be unpopular with other people. You may also have to acknowledge aspects of yourself that are less favorable, but this is important because acknowledging what you value or do not value about yourself leads you to live an open and honest -- and more real -- life. Being real has benefits for your mental health. Research has shown that authentic people feel better about themselves and are more likely to show resilience in the face of personal challenges and less likely to engage in self-destructive coping mechanisms like alcohol abuse or other risky behavior. Authentic people also tend to demonstrate more purpose in their choices and are more goal-directed and committed to seeing things through to success. The key to realness is self-knowledge and self-awareness. It's important that you take time to know yourself on a very deep level. Being real means living your own life, not the lives of others. Throughout our lives, and particularly our childhood, we pick up messages based on what other people and say and do and incorporate these into our own belief system. Eventually, we assume that these thoughts are our own. The project of becoming more self aware works to assess all of these beliefs and values and see which ones are really your own and which you've...

Psychologists say that there is a zone of “optimal anxiety” (also known as “productive discomfort”) that is just outside your comfort zone. The theory behind optimal anxiety is that the presence of limited anxiety actually increases your productivity.  For example, many people do very well when they begin a new job. Because the new job is somewhat uncomfortable for them, they put in extra attentiveness and devotion to prove to themselves and their new boss that they can do the job. Finding your zone of optimal anxiety can be tricky; it involves self-monitoring to find the point at which the anxiety overwhelms the productivity. An example of stepping outside of your zone of optimal anxiety would be starting a new job without the training or qualifications required to do the job effectively.  In this case, the anxiety about not performing effectively would likely overwhelm any potential for productivity. Pushing yourself a little bit past your comfort zone can help you learn new things and accomplish things you hadn’t thought possible. Becoming comfortable with getting outside your comfort zone will help you embrace your more extroverted traits, such as enjoying novelty.  Don’t push yourself too far, though -- and take your time. Too much extension past your comfort zone creates more anxiety than is helpful, and your performance will plummet. Try to start small. For example, if you’re usually a quiet steak-and-potatoes-for-dinner person, jumping straight to eating still-beating cobra hearts in front of a crowd probably isn’t a good idea. Try a step that’s just slightly outside your comfort zone, such as going for sushi with a friend and trying a roll you’ve never had before. Set yourself a challenge to try one new thing per week (or whatever level works for you) so that you’re regularly committed to change. One of the benefits of pushing yourself just past your comfort zone is that you will become accustomed to the optimal anxiety that creates. As you teach your brain to embrace novelty, trying new things will...

Psychopaths lie, manipulate, and spin stories without remorse to get what they want and avoid blame. Never take what the person says at face value.  Think about why the person is telling you a story, gossiping, or giving an explanation. Double-check their story whenever possible. Grab a friend or coworker, or do a quick online search to verify what you're being told. When you don't have the opportunity to double-check, listen to your gut. Suppose they tell you that a coworker said something behind your back. Ask yourself, “What’s their motivation, what do they gain, and how does this information hold up to scrutiny? Do they have my best interests in mind, or are they trying to start an unnecessary conflict?” Take any compliments, especially over-the-top ones, with a grain of salt. Primary characteristics of psychopathy include strong communication skills, charm, and wit. Typically, being pleasant on the surface is a tactic to get what they want.  Do your best to see through charm and flattery. Consider what they’re like when they’re not using their charisma to get something. Ask yourself, “What do I have to offer them that could explain their attempt to flatter me?” For example, don't cave in if they've been showering you with compliments, then ask you to loan them money or to do a favor for them. Tell them, "Sorry, I have a personal policy about loaning money to friends, family, and coworkers," or "Sorry, I have a ton on my plate and can't take on this project for  you." Make it clear that you will not engage with them if they try to intimidate or threaten you. Psychopaths need to exert psychological and physical control over others, and they’ll use charm, intimidation, manipulation, and violence to maintain power. Arguing with them can escalate the situation, and showing that they’re getting to you gives them satisfaction.  If you believe your safety is in jeopardy, talk to a teacher or guidance counselor if you’re at school. For work-related issues, bring your concerns to your HR department or, if you...

Psychopathy appears to be more closely tied to genetics than sociopathy. You may look at family history and try to notice any similarities in siblings, parents, or grandparents. If the person's family appears more or less stable, then they may be more toward being a sociopath, however, similar family traits may indicate a stronger link with being a psychopath. Psychopaths tend to be more manipulative than sociopaths. Others may see them as charming and endearing. Psychopaths can appear to live normal lives and may minimize their illegal or criminal activities. Sweet or prosocial behaviors can be seen as a means to an end. For example, they may not answer questions directly, point the blame at others, or make up elaborate stories for their behavior of why it’s not their fault. They tend to carefully plot their moves and use premeditated aggression to get what they want. Even if a psychopath is charming, it’s unlikely that he or she feels empathy toward others. A psychopath may be unable to form attachments and real relationships with other people. While a psychopath may be in a romantic relationship or have a family, it’s unlikely that he or she expresses true emotions and has learned to mimic emotions. Also, not all psychopaths are uncaring; some are altruistic and caring to someone they love. A psychopath may be completely disconnected from the emotional experience. He or she may not understand why people are upset or that others experience a range of emotion. Psychopaths often hold steady jobs and have a good education. They may have families and relationships without anyone suspecting their psychopathic tendencies. In people living “normal” lives, the symptoms associated with psychopathy may be more subtle and only be most evident in interpersonal relationships or around family. Co-workers or acquaintances may not suspect that the person is a psychopath, or just may think that something is a bit “different” about the person. When a psychopath commits a crime, all details of that crime are often...

Psyllium is a popular natural remedy for preventing diarrhea, as it increases the absorption of water in the gastrointestinal tract, resulting in harder stool and reduced bowel movements.  To use psyllium husks, add half a teaspoon of ground psyllium to an 8oz. glass of water. Stir to combine and drink before the mixture thickens. Do this once in the morning at once at night. As your body adjusts to the psyllium, you can gradually increase the quantity to 2 teaspoons for every 8oz of water. Fenugreek works in a very similar way to psyllium, as it absorbs water from the gastrointestinal tract, making the stool firmer. To use fenugreek, mix half a teaspoon of the fenugreek seeds into an 8oz. glass of water and drink. Do this two or three times per day. Blueberries contain tannins which reduce inflammation and mucus secretion in the gastrointestinal tract. This helps to relieve diarrhea. You can eat fresh or frozen blueberries, or buy dried, powdered blueberries which you can add to smoothies and cereals, or boil in hot water to make tea. Ginger tea and herbal teas like chamomile and peppermint have been used as a natural treatment for diarrhea for many years. They are also calming and soothing and help to keep you hydrated.  Ginger contains two substances called gingerol and shogaol, which help to slow down bowel movements and prevent diarrhea. Ginger also helps to ease the abdominal cramping often associated with diarrhea. To make ginger tea, add some freshly grated ginger to a cup of boiling water and let it steep for 15 minutes before straining and drinking. Add honey to taste. Try to drink 2 to 3 cups per day. Chamomile and peppermint both act as muscle relaxants , producing a calming effect on the muscles of the gastrointestinal tract. This limits the number of bowel movements you'll have and will prevent diarrhea. Chamomile and peppermint teas are easily available at the supermarket and in health food stores. Try to drink two to three cups per day during pregnancy. Apply cider vinegar helps to kill the...

Public and university libraries are excellent resources for people living on the street. You can use the computers, access the internet, apply for jobs, read a book or magazine, gain shelter, and take advantage of the bathroom. If you are interested in finding a steady job and housing, the library can help you attain that. You don’t want to alert people to the fact that you are living on the streets because they will make assumptions about you and are likely to want you to stay away from them. This is especially important for if you are accessing stores, office buildings, and other facilities. Look for somewhere safe to stash extra items, or reduce your possessions so that they easily fit into a backpack and tote.  When carrying a backpack, try to look like you’re either a hiking-enthusiast or a bicyclist who carries a backpack for convenience. Try to use a bag that looks like a standard tote or reusable grocery bag so that people will assume that you are on your way home from shopping. While you will have to pay for it, a post office box can be instrumental in helping you maintain a lifestyle or get back on your feet if that’s your desire. You can have mail sent to your post office box, store small items in your box, and use it as an address on job applications. You may not be able to use it as an address to get services, but some post office box options will provide you with a usable address, so ask about your options.

Pugs aim to please, but can get sidetracked by a short attention span. To keep your own pug focused, teach him the ‘focus’ command. Put your finger on his nose, say ‘focus,’ then place this finger on your own nose. When your pug stays focused on your finger on your nose, immediately give him a treat. Lengthen the time he watches your finger before you reward him. When he’s mastered it, use it each time he gets distracted during training sessions. Because of the short attention span, keep your training sessions short (about 15 minutes or less) and repeat the lessons frequently. When your pug learns the basic commands, he will have the proper foundation to behave well and learn even more commands. Basic commands include sit, stay, come, and heel. If his short attention span is making training difficult, consider enrolling him in a local dog obedience class. Use plenty of positive reinforcement (verbal praise,  treats, extra petting) each time your pug correctly follows a command. The more excited and positive you are, the more your pug will try to please you and behave properly. Pugs love to chew. Teaching your pug to 'leave it' will help keep him from chewing something inappropriate (e.g., furniture, shoes). The 'drop it' command will teach him to drop whatever is in mouth, particularly if it's something he’s not supposed to chew on.

Pugs are one of the breeds that have a third eyelid. This sits on the inner part of the eye where it travels across the cornea in order to protect it. The eye is lubricated by tear fluid that comes from a gland in the third eye. If a gland on the third eye pops forward, you'll notice that a large round mass swells to cover the inner part of the eye. This red swollen mass often looks like a cherry. Most pugs aren't bothered by cherry eye, which is largely a cosmetic issue. But, if your dog seems to be bothered by it or if you aren't sure if he actually has cherry eye, you should get a veterinarian's diagnosis. Your dog may have a different eye condition if he seems to be in pain. It's thought that the glands in a pug's eyes can pop forward when connective tissue around the glands weaken, although vets aren't exactly sure what causes cherry eye. You can decide whether or not to remove the cherry eye through surgery. If you do want it removed, the veterinary surgeon will place the gland back into the right place and stitch it so it doesn't pop out. The surgery is done under anesthesia. If you don't want to do surgery, you can ignore the cherry eye (unless your dog becomes bothered by it) or try steroid ointments.

Pugs can be difficult to train. This is because they are strong-willed rather than stupid. In fact, you could say they are highly intelligent because they work out what they want and then go ahead and do it regardless of your opinion. This does not mean you should give up on training, but just be extra patient and be prepared to put in the hours. Thoroughly acquaint yourself with recommended training techniques such as reward-based training. Getting you pug onside with rewards and then getting him to work for those rewards is what will crack the training in the end. If your pug isn't allowed on the furniture, make sure every member of the family applies this rule under all circumstances, even on the weekend. A pug given inconsistent instruction will select the version it prefers and inconsistency will make the training even harder. Pugs have a reputation for taking longer than other breeds to be housetrained. Crate training and using positive reinforcement may help you to housetrain your pug a bit faster.

Pull a tennis-ball sized chunk of clay away from your clay supply. Next, roll the chunk between your hands or against your work surface to form a ball. Keep the surface of the ball as smooth as possible. Make sure you don’t create pockets in the surface of the ball by pressing with your fingers. Instead, use your palms to mold the ball. Set the pot in a low-traffic location and cover it with a lightweight hand towel. Let the pot dry for a few hours, checking on it periodically. When the pot is leather hard, it will be cool to the touch and firm like a block of cheese. If the pot starts to look chalky, it is getting too dry. Once the pot is leather hard, you can smooth the surface and add embellishments. Many potters prefer to use their fingers to smooth the surface of the pot, but you can also use specialized pottery tools such as wooden ribs. Additionally, you can even out the lip of the pot by cutting away any uneven areas with a craft knife. Other embellishments can include:  Using your fingers to smooth away any marks or cracks in the surface Using a wooden stick to carve a pattern into the side of the pot Scraping a serrated metal rib against the side of the pot to create a rough texture

Pull all of your clothes from your wardrobe and lay them out on your bed. Organize the clothing by type and place them into piles. This will allow you to easily sort through your clothing while you decide what to keep and what to throw away. Wash and dry any dirty clothing. If half of your wardrobe is dirty, you won’t be able to properly sort through your wardrobe. If a piece of clothing has large stains or irreparable tears, throw it away. Be realistic about what you can and can’t fix. Small tears in seams can be easily repaired, but larger holes are harder to mend. If the job is too advanced for your sewing skills, consider throwing the clothing away.  Don’t donate torn or stained clothing. The volunteers who receive the donation will have to trash them anyway. If expensive clothing is damaged, see a tailor. However, less expensive damaged clothing may not be worth the cost of the repairs. Sort through your undamaged clothing to find items to donate. Be harsh with yourself and remember that you’re trying to reduce the amount of clothing that you wear. Place donated clothing in large clean plastic bags and take them to your local clothing donation center. While sorting, ask yourself:  ”If I was shopping right now, would I buy this?”  ”Have I worn this in the past two years?” ”Is this piece of clothing too small or two big?” ”Do I feel good when I wear this?” Any seasonal or sentimental items can be stored away until they’re needed. This will help clear up wardrobe space for other items or organizational tools. Bins of packed clothing can be stored under your bed, in a storage closet, or above your wardrobe.  Delicate items such as silk or cashmere should be wrapped in tissue paper and stored in canvas storage bags. Regular clothing can be folded and stacked in large plastic bins. Only store clean clothes.

Pull back on the green backing from each rose, then separate it into individual parts. Return the green piece that surrounded the fake flower to the stem by either pushing it back downward. Or, if it came loose and cannot be pushed back on, use green gardener’s tape to hold it in place. Then, tape a wooden chopstick to each stem, so that the stem will be strong enough to hold the bacon.     If using a box, line it with parchment paper first, to absorb any remaining grease. Continue to make enough to create your arrangement. Give to someone special or place on the table for everyone to share. Enjoy your bacon roses!

Pull down the plastic skirt cover the extendable, metal cylinder. Estimate the diameter of the cylinder by holding a ruler across it horizontally. Also measure the length of the cylinder when the chair is at the perfect height. You shouldn't need an exact measurement, but you can calculating the diameter from the circumference if you prefer to be precise. This pipe will fit over the pneumatic cylinder of the chair. It should be about the same size as the cylinder diameter, or slightly larger. Pipe 1.5 inches (3.8 cm) in diameter works well for most models. Buy enough straight pipe to extend from the wheel base of your chair to the seat, when the chair is at the preferred height.  The pipe does not have to be in one piece. It may be easier to work with in smaller pieces, although you can easily cut it yourself at home. One user reports using a tall stack of plastic shower rings instead of PVC pipe. These are even cheaper and easier to install, but they may not be sturdy enough to support your weight. Try at your own risk. . Secure the pipe in a vise. Use a hacksaw or back saw to cut through the pipe from tip to tip, but only on one side. The end result should be a pipe with a slit in it, not two half-pipes.  Wearing a mask or respirator is recommended while cutting PVC to avoid inhaling irritating particles.  If you do not have a vise or cutting tools, just leave the pipe intact and remove the chair's wheels so you can slide on the pipe. In most cases, you can remove the wheel base by pressing a retaining clip on the underside with a screwdriver. Pull the chair's plastic skirt up or down to reveal the metal cylinder. Push the slit side of the PVC pipe against the cylinder to snap it around the cylinder. It should now hold the chair in place, preventing it from sliding down. If you're having trouble snapping the pipe on, saw it into shorter pieces and try again. If the chair is still too low, raise it and snap on another piece of pipe. You will not be able to lower the chair again without removing the pipe, so...

Pull out the paper manual or look up the digital version online. Flip through until you see the cleaning section. Follow the directions carefully, paying particular attention to any warnings against particular chemical cleaners. Be aware that following a cleaning procedure not listed in the manual, or using prohibited chemicals, could result in your warranty being voided. To safely work on your TV, you’ll need to disconnect it from any electricity, especially if you are planning to use a liquid cleaner. This protects you if any liquid makes it into the casing. Turning off the power will also make the screen go dark, which will help you to see any dust or debris. With a TV this size, you do not want to risk it falling on you during the cleaning process. If your TV is mounted to the wall, check the connections before proceeding. If your TV is on a stand, make sure that it does not wobble if you apply light pressure to the screen. With a smaller TV you might be able to lay it down before cleaning, but this is not generally a good idea with a big screen model. After you unplug the TV, let it sit for at least five minutes before cleaning. Modern TVs do not generate as much electricity and warmth as earlier models. However, they do heat up slightly when turned on and this heat can cause dirt and grime to stick to the surface. Allowing for a cooling period will reduce the dust and the build-up of static electricity.

Pull up instructional videos on YouTube and similar websites. By running a simple search, you can often find helpful content that breaks down technique, offers detailed explanations of unusual movements and features slow-motion demonstrations. Look to make sure that a given video was produced by an official gymnastics school or coach—otherwise, the information it outlines might not be trustworthy.  Examine videos of skills you’re in the process of learning to familiarize yourself with the way they’re supposed to look. Take notes from the videos you watch so you’ll have them to refer to while you practice. Pick up whatever books, magazines and other published works related to gymnastics you can get your hands on. The articles and photos they contain will prove very illustrative and can give you technique tips and ideas for new training exercises. A good place to start would be an instructional guide that provides a comprehensive overview of the sport, such as Gymnastics for Dummies.  Go over written guides extensively to gain an understanding of how certain techniques work. You’ll have to be willing to do a little more homework since you won’t have the benefit of a coach. If you’re lucky, you might even be able to track down copies of old gymnastics training manuals used to teach competitive athletes in past decades. In some cases, you may be able to register for gymnastics instruction over the internet for a small fee. Online education might take the form of e-books, video seminars and/or virtual classrooms led by experienced coaches. These web seminars are typically designed to provide new instructors with practical lessons, but you probably stand to learn a lot yourself if this option is available to you. Verify that an online course is being presented by a reputable coach or athlete before signing up. Ask for pointers from those who are involved in the sport. If you know someone that does gymnastics, see if they’ll pass on a portion of what they’ve learned to you. Sit in on a gymnastics class if there’s a...

Pull your friend to the side and away from the earshot of others to have this talk.  You don't want to risk embarrassing them or having your business aired out to everyone. Ask them to meet you after school or call them at a time you're both free. Say “Hey Sarah, do you have a few minutes to talk after school?  I was thinking we could get ice cream.  I wanna chat about something.” Avoid jumping straight to the issue; ease into it instead.  Spend a few minutes chatting about their day or the latest news. Once you are both comfortable, you can talk to them about the copying. You can say “Lately, I've been feeling like every time I buy a shirt or pair of shoes, you go out and buy the same ones.  I've tried to ignore it but it's been bothering me and I wanted to talk to you about it.” Once you have opened up, listen to what they have to say.  Don't interrupt them, and even when you feel that they are wrong, try to see things from their perspective.  This 'copying' could be a coincidence, or perhaps the items that you have are very popular and worn by many people. They might also admit that they've been copying you.  If you tend to get more attention or are more confident, them copying you could be a way to feel cooler. If they do admit to copying you, let them know that you're not mad at them.  Talk to them about the reasons you two are friends and the things that you like about them. Encourage them to express those things rather than copying your personality or style. For instance, you might say “Kris, you have such a fun personality and I don't know why you'd want to change that to be more like me.  I want to be friends with YOU, not a copycat version of myself.” Your friend might not have taken this news well.  They might be offended that you think they are copying you.  Even if they yell or get upset, keep a completely neutral tone and demeanor so they don't get more agitated.  Base all of your feelings in facts so that you have examples to back them up.  If they say that you're crazy for thinking they would...

Punishing your dog for peeing or pooping outside his litter box will only scare her and make it harder for him to learn. Consistency is the best way to train your dog. This will show your dog that it is ok to eliminate there and make him more likely to do so. Remove the food between meals. Regular feedings will lead to regular times when your dog needs to eliminate. Whining, pacing, sniffing around the house, or walking to the door are all signs that your dog needs to pee or pooh. Send him to the litter box immediately. Very young puppies should be sent every hour, as well as shortly after meals and naps. All puppies should be sent first thing in the morning, just before you go to bed, and before they are confined or left alone.  A puppy can usually hold his pee for the same number of hours as his age in months during the day. Puppies can hold their pee longer at night. A 4 month old puppy should be able to make it through the night You don’t want your dog to get in the habit of eliminating in the house, so whenever he is not confined, watch him closely. Pacing, whining, circling, sniffing, and leaving the room are all signs that your dog needs to pee or poop. Get him to the litter box as quickly as possible. Use a small room with the door closed or blocked off by a baby gate. Locate the litter box in the room so that your dog can use it as needed. During litter training, you should always go to the litter box with your dog. Reward peeing or pooping with praise, treats, or play. Dogs don’t bury their waste like cats do. You’ll need to scoop it out every time they pooh. At least once a month, empty the box out entirely and clean it. Your dog won’t want to use it if it gets too dirty. You don’t want to scare your dog, and you definitely don’t want to rub his face in the mess. Clap sharply in order to startle him; this will usually cause him to stop. Then quickly run with him to the litter box, encouraging him to follow you. If your dog finishes peeing or pooping in the box, give a reward. If he has nothing...
