While many people will be there to support you, some people may judge your decision or say hurtful things. These people won’t help your recovery, so don’t let them around you. Instead, spend time with people who are there to help you. If you think someone might have a bad reaction, don’t tell them about your abortion. You don’t need their opinion about your healthcare needs. While having an abortion may have been your best or only option, you might still feel a sense of sadness or loss. It’s normal to feel this way, and it doesn’t mean you made the wrong decision. Let yourself feel whatever comes naturally, and take your time during your recovery. It might be especially painful for you if you had to have an abortion because your pregnancy wasn’t viable. It’s normal to feel a lot of pain right now. Take as long as you need to feel better. Reach out to your partner, a friend, or a family member you can trust. Tell them how you feel and ask them to be there to support you during your recovery. This can help you process your feelings faster.  You might say, “I know this was the best decision, but I still feel sad. Can I call you when I need to talk?” Don’t confide in someone who might judge you. Right now you need love and support. It might feel wrong to enjoy yourself right now, but it’s okay to do things that make you feel good. Take time for yourself every day to do something you enjoy. Here are some ways you might start to feel better.  Express yourself through art. Watch funny movies. Listen to uplifting music. Color in an adult coloring book. Spend time with your friends. It’s normal for your hormones to fluctuate a lot after you have an abortion. You might even develop the symptoms of postpartum depression. If you’re worried that you’re depressed, talk to your doctor about how you feel. They may offer you treatment options. You aren’t to blame for feeling depressed. This is a medical issue, so visit your doctor. You might need extra support during your recovery, and that’s okay. Work with a therapist to...

While many problems require time and healing, some problems can be solved with a little effort and thoughtful consideration. Think about problems you are facing that may have a solution. This can include work, finances, family, friendships, romantic relationship, and educational stresses. Write down as many solutions as you can think of for each item that you listed. It doesn’t matter whether a particular solution seems realistic or not, just write them all down. It’s amazing which solutions can actually be helpful, so you don’t want to disregard any of them in the initial brainstorming session.  For example, if you and your partner always talk about finances right before bed and end up going to bed angry, start moving your discussions to the morning and have enough time to adequately talk through all issues. Once you know what the solutions are, be sure to create a specific actionable plan to move forward. This will probably require you to identify specific goals and the action steps that you will take to meet the goals. For more information on goal attainment, check out How to Set Goals and Achieve Them. Don’t be afraid to ask for help or advice. If you are overwhelmed or if you don’t know what to do about something, there are many people who are willing to help. Whether you talk about your difficulties with family, friends, or a therapist, it can be cathartic to verbally express what’s going on to someone else. Don’t try to do it all alone.  Trying to live life without support only intensifies the struggle and makes life feel worse.  Don’t let pride get in the way of you seeking help. No one knows everything and you can always reciprocate later. Talking about your problems can allow someone to give you  unique perspective that you may not have considered. When you talk to someone else, let them know what you want. If you want feedback, ask for thoughts or feelings regarding your situation. If you just want someone to listen, make that clear. Sometimes well-intentioned people will give you feedback to try...

While many restaurants list a vegetarian option, you can also ask if they have any other veggie options. Additionally, don't be afraid to ask if a dish can be altered by leaving out the meat.  In addition, be sure to look at the side dishes, as you should have a number of options available to you there. Don't forget to ask about "hidden" meats, such as chicken stock in soup or anchovies in caesar dressing. Besides helping you stick to vegetarianism, eating at restaurants can open you up to new options. If you're not sure where to begin, a cooking class can help you get your feet wet. It can lay out the best options for you, as well as introduce you to new veggie options.  Check with your local community college to see if they offer a class. You might also find a class at your local culinary college or even your parks and recreation department. Another option is purchasing a vegetarian cookbook or checking one out from your library. Search online for vegetarian recipes. There are entire blogs dedicated to tasty vegetarian recipes. They can help you keep your tastebuds happy while changing your diet. A co-op is a group of people who come together to buy produce directly from farmers. Different co-ops work differently, so once you find one, you'll need to ask how it works. You can usually find one just by putting in your city's name and "food co-op" in a search engine.  Some co-ops require you to pay a fee to join. Some work much like conventional stores, where you go in and buy what you want, while others have lists online. Still others may have a set "box" each month or every two weeks where you pay a certain price. One nice thing about the box model is you are introduced to new vegetables you may not have picked out for yourself. If you're invited to a party, offer to bring a meatless option. That way, it takes the pressure off the host, but you still have a good option on hand. In addition, you may find there are other vegetarians at the party that the host didn't know about.  Always ask first. You don't...

While middlemen can thrive in some industries, most industries are working to cut them out of the picture completely. If you cannot make your value apparent to both consumers and suppliers, your business may not last long. Avoid stretching yourself too thin by specializing in one type of product or service. Prevent yourself from being made obsolete by diversifying the sources and specifics of the overall product or service you specialize in.  Regardless of the product or service you work with, it is generally safer to work with multiple suppliers instead of a single source. If you only work with one supplier, your business goes under as soon as your supplier's business struggles or your supplier decides to stop working with you. Consumers may also recognize that your business is at risk if your supplier suddenly cuts you off, which may discourage them from trusting or relying on your business. To prevent your suppliers from also becoming your rivals, you need to make sure that your customers are loyal to you and not to the brand they receive from the supplier.  Working with multiple suppliers is one way to accomplish this. With no one supplier to become attached to, the customer is more likely to become attached to you. Another way to encourage customer loyalty is to focus on the entire sales experience, including both the pre-sales and post-sales portions. Regardless of the product or service you provide, you should also provide excellent customer service. The quality of the product or service you provide to consumers must be top-notch, and the quality of the overall experience you offer to both suppliers and consumers must be of a high grade, too.  You can maximize success by becoming the person your buyers and suppliers turn to for a better experience. For suppliers, this means expanding their customer base and taking care of a portion of their marketing. For consumers, this means delivering the best product or service for the cost they are able and willing to pay. Sift through the junk and evaluate all...

While most Jehovah’s Witnesses will respect your wishes after the first visit, every large group is made up of individuals.  Some of those individuals may behave differently than others.  If the visits persist after you have turned them away and asked that they not return, try calling your local Kingdom Hall.  Report the situation.  Let the leadership know that someone in their congregation is not respecting your wishes and is acting outside of their expectations. Be firm in your wishes to be removed from their rotation. If someone has entered your property, you have every right to have them removed.  Simply asking them to leave is usually sufficient, but if they are not respecting your wishes, you may need to involve the authorities to enforce trespassing laws.Those laws are enforceable because:  They meet the requirement under the law of having intentionally entered your property rather than accidentally. They have knowledge that you did not give consent if you have a fence, have posted a no trespassing sign, or have asked them to leave. If you have had to contact the authorities, you will need to continue on in court to complete the process and lead to a conviction.  Like any legal action, this could take quite a bit of your time and some financial resources, but will guarantee that your privacy is protected.  Fines can be issued in a large range from tens to thousands of dollars. Jail time is rarely enforced, but has been in some extreme cases, usually involving entering the person’s home. Probation can be enforced.  The average length of time for this probation is 12 months.  While on probation, they cannot commit any crimes and must pay all of their fines.  They may also be assigned a probation officer.

While most dogs will be okay with you cleaning gunk from their eyes, others might not. If your dog is especially sensitive, try cleaning her eyes with the help of another person. Have someone with whom the dog is familiar hold your pet while you clean the dog’s eyes. If your dog’s eye discharge isn’t caused by a serious medical condition like epiphora or conjunctivitis, you can clean the gunk with a damp, soft cloth or sponge. Using water that is at room temperature, wet the cloth and wring it out so it remains damp but is not overly saturated.  Avoid using extremely hot or cold water as this can cause further irritation in your dog’s eyes. Don’t use a napkin or paper towel as both can disintegrate when wet and leave harmful bits of paper in your pooch’s eyes. Using the moistened washcloth or sponge, gently clean the discharge from your dog’s eyes using several gentle strokes. If necessary, you can rinse and wring the cloth between strokes. In the majority of cases, you should not use any type of detergent, soap, or shampoo when cleaning gunk from your dog’s eyes. This can cause irritation for your pet. Instead, you should stick to water and avoid cleansers altogether. If your pet is suffering from a chronic or serious condition that causes excessive eye discharge, your vet may recommend using sterile pet eyewash to clean your dog’s eye. Gently moisten the cotton ball or pad with the solution, taking caution to not soak it. Start at the inner corner of the eye and wipe outward. Use a new cotton ball or pad for each eye, as using the same one for both eyes can spread bacteria, viruses, and infection between the two eyes.

While most girls (like most guys) will appreciate a classic dinner/movie night out, there's no need to pigeonhole yourselves as a couple by sticking to traditional date possibilities. Be creative - take your girlfriend to do things she'd never thought she'd do before. Going outside of your comfort zone can be a great opportunity to bond as a couple. As an added bonus, non-traditional date ideas can be a great way to save money if you're young. One great date idea is to surprise your girlfriend by taking her to do an activity that she's casually expressed an interest in during conversation. For instance, if she's previously talked about how cool she thinks aquatic animals are, you might consider taking her to a SCUBA diving class. Similarly, if she loves art, you might want take her on a hike into some scenic woods with an easel and paint to make your own together. Your big night out is no time to be distracted by other people or commitments. Put everything else aside for a few hours. Clear your mind of any upcoming projects that will require your attention and tune in your girlfriend and the relationship you share with her. Be sure to turn off your phone, pager, laptop, and/or any other distracting devices. Nothing ruins a great moment like having to take a business call in the middle of your candlelit dinner. That age-old question - whether a man should or shouldn't pay for his girlfriend on their night out - is more relevant today than ever before, as it's become accepted (and even expected) that a woman may pay instead. There's no right answer to this question - the specifics of who pays for what in your relationship are up to you and your girlfriend to discuss. Generally, if you're responsible for planning the night, it's recommended that you at least make a genuine effort to pay. Do so to demonstrate how important your girlfriend is to you, not out of an old-fashioned conception of gender norms. If your girlfriend insists that she should pay or that you should split the bill, you may want to put up a...

While most lizards are merely annoying rather than dangerous, certain exotic species can dangerous.  Always be sure you know exactly what kind of lizard you’re trying to catch before doing so.  If you have a lizard in your house that could be dangerous, contact animal control or a private wildlife removal service to catch the lizard. Leopard lizards and collared lizards should especially be treated with care. While most lizards are not a direct threat to humans, they can carry infectious bacteria like Salmonella.  If your cat or dog catches and eats the lizard, it may become infected with Salmonella.  Children, likewise, might think lizards are fun to play with and become ill.  For these reasons, if you observe a lizard in your home, act swiftly to catch and remove it. In order to prevent the transfer of Salmonella and other germs, wear disposable latex gloves when handling small lizards.  After catching the lizard and placing it in a cage or container, remove the gloves and dispose of them.  If handling larger lizards, you should wear thick gloves to prevent your hands from bites or claws.  Thick work gloves or gardening gloves should suffice.  Wash any clothes that may have come in contact with the lizard. Depending on the type of lizard you’ve caught, you may or may not be able to release it back into the wild.  Contact your local department of environmental protection about what you can and cannot do with your lizard. The lizard is more likely to panic and scramble out of your grasp if you try to grab it by its tail -- which might actually come off in your hand depending on the species -- or try to grab it from above.  These movements are similar to those used by its natural predators.  Instead, let the lizard see you from the side and slowly bring your hand below its belly. With small lizards, one hand is usually enough.  Bring your hand beneath them, with your index finger arching up between their front legs and stopping just before their neck.  With larger lizards like iguanas or monitors, you will...

While natural remedies aren’t backed by scientific research, many people claim that their dogs have experienced relief by using certain methods. Acupuncture is the process of inserting thin, long needles into certain pressure points, which might relieve pain and stop the frequency of seizures. Talk to your vet before trying acupuncture for your dog.  Keep in mind that acupuncture is usually used in addition to medication, not in place of it. Ask your vet, family, and friends for recommendations for professional acupuncturists. You might also want to check out online reviews. Only allow a professional with experience treating dogs to work on your pet. Some people believe that Chinese herbal medication can help reduce seizures in dogs. Ask your vet if herbal remedies might help your pet.  Remember that herbal formulas may not be proven effective. Don't delay treating your dog with medication. Gastrointestinal upset, such as diarrhea, is a common side-effect. It may seem as though your dog gets worse before better. That is common. Herbs might be used to prolong the effects of acupuncture sessions. Since your dog’s food has a big impact on their overall health, it makes sense that changing their diet might help control the seizures. Some vets recommend a high-fat, low-carb diet, or a low salt diet, which may reduce seizures. Talk to your vet before changing your dog’s food.  Ask your vet for a dog food that is right for your pet. You can also ask about making your own dog food, if you want to try that. Ask your vet about giving your dog fish oil supplements, which might help prevent seizures. It's usually safe to give your dog "people" fish oil, but there are also special pills for dogs. Ask your vet which is right for your dog, and follow the vet's dosage instructions, rather than those on the bottle.

While net worth gives you a picture of your assets and liabilities, it is even more important to know how much money comes in and goes out every month. This will give you a good idea of what you spend money on every month, and having all these expenses written down can tell you exactly where savings can be found. This is the centerpiece of any financial plan Make a list of your monthly sources of income (salary, child support, etc.). Add these sources together to find your total monthly income. It can be helpful to organize these into groups. For example, under “Housing,” you could include your rent or mortgage payments, home or renter’s insurance, and utilities; under “Transportation,” you could include car payments, fuel costs, maintenance charges, and car insurance. Add all of your expenses together to find your monthly total. Make sure to include expenses like entertainment, food, clothing, credit card payments, taxes, and other incidental costs. Remember that some expenses are “fixed” (the same or nearly the same each month) while others are variable (change frequently, or are irregular). When making a budget, try to account for variable expenses, including those that don’t occur monthly. You can make a list of variable expenses that occur over a period of several months, add them together, and then divide that sum by the number of months. This will leave you with an average variable expense number that you can factor into your monthly budget. If your income is more than your expenses, you will have a remainder that you can save, invest, or spend according to your financial goals. If your expenses are more than your income, then review your budget for expenses that you can reduce or cut.  If you don’t yet know the exact amount of your income and/or expenses, keep track of them for a few months to get an idea. Review and update your budget frequently. Make sure to add any new expenses, and remove any that you no longer have.

While not all kidney stones cause people to have symptoms, even very small stones can cause severe pain. If you've already had a few kidney stones in your life, you might be reasonably sure that's what's going on. However, since the symptoms of a kidney stone overlap symptoms of many other disorders, it's a good idea to receive a diagnosis so you can treat it properly. Here are the most common symptoms of kidney stones:  Severe pain in the side and lower back, which often spreads to the abdomen and groin. Pain that comes and goes in waves, and is present during urination. Foul-smelling, cloudy, pink or brown urine. Nausea and vomiting. Getting an x-ray, CT scan or ultrasound (depending on what your doctor recommends) when you notice the symptoms of a kidney stone is the best way to determine how you should treat the stone. Imaging technology can will reveal the size, shape and number of stones you're dealing with.  If you have a stone smaller than 5 millimeters, your doctor will probably advise using at-home methods to help the stone pass. If you have a larger stone or multiple stones, your doctor may prescribe a medication or recommend a different course of medical treatment to pulverize the stones so you can pass them. Kidney stones produce the same symptoms, but they can be caused by several different conditions. Knowing what's causing the formation of your kidney stones will help you reduce their size and prevent them in the future. Your doctor may perform blood or urine tests to figure out what type of stones you have. After you pass a stone, your doctor might send it to a lab for analysis to determine its makeup. Here are the different types of kidney stones:   Calcium stones: these are the most common type of stones, and are caused by a high level of calcium combined with another substance, such as oxalate or uric acid. Doctors may prescribe a thiazide diuretic or phosphate containing preparation in order to get rid of these stones.  Uric acid stones: these form when the urine contains too much acid....

While not all people like to pair a sport coat with jeans, it is perfectly permissible to do so. The trick is to wear jeans that are in excellent condition and wear a neat belt too. Also, ensure that the coat and jeans fit well.  Alternatively, wear trousers. Most casual and smart casual trousers will match well with a sport coat. If the coat is patterned, choose neutrally colored pants in beige, grey, fawn, cream, etc. The pants should not compete with the coat. For a light-colored sport coat, match with dark-colored pants. For a dark-colored sport coat, match with light-colored pants. Classic is always in style. Match patterned sport coats with solid-colored shirts for a casual but stylish look. If you want to be sophisticated and put-together, putting on a patterned sport coat with a solid shirt and a neat tie will have people turning heads. Match busy jackets with solid shirts and ties and vice versa. It'd be hard to get away with three patterns.  In cold weather, try out a sport coat over a sweater and collared shirt combination. This can be an excellent way of staying warm without the need for an overcoat. It looks stylishly bookish like you're a grad student at Oxford studying avant-garde poetry.  Get creative with your tie choices. Patterns are probably out, but think about wool ties, string ties, and other types of ties that will complement your jacket pattern nicely. Alternatively, unbutton a few top buttons and wear just the shirt and coat together. This can be a great powerful look.

While not always necessary, your doctor may refer you to physiotherapist to restore your joint mobility, muscle strength, and proper gait. Feet and ankles bear lots of weight. They are therefore one of the most common sites of injury. A physiotherapist will design exercises for you based on your injury, with an eye to gradually returning your muscles and ligaments to full health. You may be asked to do strength training with resistance bands, for example, or exercises in balance like standing on one foot. Physiotherapists will also show you how to properly tape your foot before exercise. Taping will give the still-injured foot added support. It should take about a week or two before you can walk again. You may be able to resume all of your normal activities within several months. Bear in mind that foot injuries vary, however, and that in worse scenarios you may require more time. In some cases people experience pain, swelling, and instability for months or even years after the initial injury. See your doctor if you experience a sudden increase in swelling or pain or sudden tingling or numbness. Talk to your doctor if your injured foot does not recover or is taking more time than expected. She may consider referring you to an orthopedic specialist, who can determine the best course of action. Minor sprains and muscle strains rarely require surgery, either because surgery is less effective than non-invasive treatment or because it does not justify the risk. However, some cases of severe muscle strain (usually suffered by professional athletes) require surgery in order to restore the muscle to its full, former strength. Only a trained medical specialist can make this determination.

While not part of the exfoliating process per se, immersing your body in hot water will open up your pores, making your skin much more susceptible to cleaning. It also helps to do this process in the bathroom, as you'll need a ready supply of hot water and somewhere to wash away the dead skin flakes once they've been scrubbed off. Use a skin-friendly, perfume-free detergent for bath and allow at least 15 minutes to soften (macerating) the skin surface. It is good when the skin surface looks a bit "deformed". Remove "dead skin" by rubbing it away with your hands. It will work well, especially at your feet, toes and heels. Tending to your skin with it will help rub away excess skin flakes, leaving your skin softer and cleaner than before. It is recommended you have a sponge ready for use once you have finished up your shower. It should feel slightly rough on your skin, but if it's abrasive to the point of pain, exfoliating wash cloths are a suitable, gentler alternative.   Exfoliating can also be done with a rough washcloth. A natural bristle brush makes for a good alternative, particularly while scrubbing the backs of arms or legs. If you're the do-it-yourself type, you might look into  making your own loofah from home. Scrub the sponge over your skin in small, circular motions. Make sure to apply some pressure to feel the sponge's rough texture on your skin; that way, it will rub the surface-layer dead skin away. Starting at the ankles is recommended because it helps to encourage positive blood circulation during the exfoliation process. If you're exfoliating your entire body, make sure to give extra attention to your heels, elbows, and knees. These are generally considered to be the driest parts of one's skin, and should be given greater attention accordingly. If you've ever walked along the beach barefoot, you may have noticed your foot callouses soften.

While not quite a break-up, taking a break can be a big step, and you should know why you are doing it. Maybe things aren't moving as well as you would like, or perhaps your relationship has gotten stale. If you think the relationship is important and could still work, make sure your boyfriend knows that. You should want him to think about the relationship too. Make sure you clearly let him know how this time will help make your relationship stronger, and that you still care about him. Before you just leave, let him know how long you're thinking this may be. It doesn't have to be an exact time, something vague like a few weeks. You'll want to set some time so that he isn't pestering you to get back before you've both had the space, and so that you have a chance to work through issues. A phone call every few days can be good to keep in touch, but that is up to you. Avoid other communication. That will just make it harder to get the space you are looking for. If you are comfortable with him seeing other people, that's fine. Remember, though, that you are still responsible for what you do while on a break. Your break needs to be about making sure the relationship is right for you. Ask if you are considering your needs, or if the relationship is truly fulfilling. While there isn't any conclusive information, taking a break in your relationship can be a precursor for ending it. You may find you don't miss him at all, and that your life is better without him. If that ends up being the case, make contact with him and  end the relationship. Taking a break is not the same thing as breaking up, and you both deserve that kind of closure. Be prepared for the possibility that he will come to that conclusion as well. Taking a break is a risk, but it may be a worthwhile one if your relationship has grown stale or stagnant.

While one specific diet will not likely help you get pregnant, staying on track with a healthy diet will. It will keep you healthier overall, which will make it easier for you to get pregnant. Lean beef, skinless chicken, fish, and beans are all healthy, lean protein choices. Protein helps your body build muscle and tissue, and it also assists with repairing torn muscles and the like.  Women between the ages of 19 and 30 need 5 1/2 ounce equivalents per day. Over 30, women need 5 ounce equivalents per day. A single ounce of meat counts as an ounce, but so does an egg, a tablespoon of peanut butter, and a 1/4 cup of cooked beans.  It's important to include fish in your diet at least twice a week. Fish provides essential nutrients to help keep your body healthy; however, it's best to avoid fish that are high in mercury, as mercury accumulates in the body and can affect your baby. Therefore, you should skip shark, swordfish, tilefish, canned tuna fish, and king mackerel, and go for sardines, anchovies, herring, mackerel, rainbow trout, salmon, or whitefish instead. Try to make fruits and vegetables at least half your plate at every meal. They provide essential vitamins and minerals, and they also give you needed fiber. You need about 2 1/2 cups of veggies and 2 cups of fruit a day. Also, make sure you eat a variety; the more colors you eat, the better off you are as far as vitamins go. Whole grains provide more fiber and vitamins than processed grains. At least half of the grains you eat should be whole grains. Pick whole wheat bread, whole-wheat pasta, and oatmeal over white bread and white pasta. Trans fats are usually considered the worst of the fats; these fats are made by hydrogenating healthier oils, making them solid at room temperature. You should mostly try to avoid trans fats. Saturated fats, such as those found in bacon, dairy products, and other meats, are a little better, but you should still limit these fats in your diet. One way you can limit them is by picking low-fat dairy products.  Some...

While over-the-counter eye drops are effective for many people suffering with pink eye, prescription eye drops are more powerful and may rid you of the illness sooner.  Treat bacterial conjunctivitis with antibiotic eye drops. Antibiotic eye drops are a topical treatment that attacks the bacteria directly. They usually clear the infection within several days, but you should notice improvement after the first 24 hours. Follow your doctor's instructions concerning application. Treat allergic conjunctivitis with antihistamine or steroid eye drops. While some antihistamine eye drops can be purchased over-the-counter, stronger versions are available by prescription. Severe allergies are sometimes treated with eye drops containing steroids, as well. Antibiotic ointment is easier to apply than eye drops are, especially for children.  Note the ointment blurs vision for 20 minutes after being applied, but the patient's vision should clear up after that time passes. Bacterial conjunctivitis should be gone after a few days with use of this treatment. If your doctor suspects that your viral conjunctivitis is caused by the herpes simplex virus, he may decide to put you on some form of antiviral medication. Antiviral medications may also be an option if you have certain preexisting health conditions that have weakened your immune system.

While pesticides and similar chemicals used in food production do not necessarily produce more estrogen, they do have estrogen-like effects when your body absorbs them. Eating organic food will prevent these chemicals from entering your body. The liver dumps estrogen into its bile acids, and these bile acids pass through your intestines during digestion. Dietary fiber can help eliminate the estrogen found in bile.[citation needed] Fiber-rich foods include fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. Polyphenols are derived by plant sources of food. Current research suggests that they help reduce estrogen levels in the blood.  Flax seeds can be especially beneficial. In addition to polyphenols, they also contain lignans, which can counteract the effects of estrogen in the body and interfere with estrogen production. They do contain plant derived estrogens known as "phytoestrogens," however, so you should not eat them in excess. Other seeds, like chia and sesame, have similarly beneficial properties. Many unrefined grains also contain large amounts of polyphenols. Some of the best whole grains include wheat, oats, rye, corn, rice, millet, and barley. Sulfur can help detoxify the liver by getting rid of substances that cause liver damage.[citation needed] As a result, the liver becomes more productive. Since the liver is responsible for metabolizing and breaking down estrogen in the body, a healthy liver can help decrease estrogen.[citation needed] Sulfuric foods include onions, leafy green vegetables, garlic, egg yolks, and citrus fruits. Cruciferous vegetables have high levels of phytochemicals, and these phytochemicals work with the body to help block estrogen production. A few beneficial cruciferous vegetables include broccoli, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts, bok choy, kale, collard greens, turnips, and rutabagas. Many mushrooms help prevent the bodily product an enzyme called "aromatase." This enzyme can convert androgen into estrogen. By eating more mushrooms, you can restrict this conversion process and decrease...

While psychopaths tend to have a strong genetic link, sociopaths appear to have a more environment-based development. For example, a sociopath may have grown up in an unstable, neglectful, or violent home or community. The sociopath may develop traits as a defense mechanism or response to harsh conditions. Experiencing a traumatic childhood and adapting to the harshness is much more likely for a sociopath than a psychopath. While the psychopath may be benevolent, charming, and calculated, the sociopath may be more aggressive, rageful, and reckless. Sociopaths may be more violent than psychopaths and experience more emotional outbursts. Sociopaths are much more likely to behave in reckless behavior without regarding potential outcomes or consequences. While psychopaths tend to be meticulous and detail-oriented, sociopaths may be more careless and erratic. A sociopath may not think of potential outcomes or how to anticipate them. Sociopaths tend to have more difficulty holding down a job.They may move frequently or cycle through jobs quickly. A sociopath may decide to rob a bank one day and go do it without much planning. The psychopath, however, would spend weeks or months planning “the perfect crime.” Sociopaths tend to experience more empathy and more guilt than psychopaths. A sociopath may be capable of creating social bonds with people or romantic relationships. A sociopath may have no problem hurting a stranger, but may feel remorseful for hurting someone close to him or her.

While really anyone can be a politician (depending on your definition of politician, of course), the ones that make a true dent in society and can call it a career have been to college. They likely studied economics, business, political science, or international relations. Though any degree is better than none!  Many go on to law or business school. This isn't a hard-and-fast requirement, but it's definitely not a bad idea. If you want to be a big dog, it's wise, that's for certain. In the US Congress, 68 are currently either lawyers or businessmen. Just for the record. Back in the day, military experience was pretty common. It's definitely not a bad idea -- we're all pro people who support their country. But it is becoming less common and if you don't feel the pressure to fit the presidential mold, there's no shame in keeping your office job. With volunteer experience on your resume, it's hard for someone to look at you and say, "That's not a trustworthy, good person." That would require a person who doesn't like puppies. To get votes, you need to show that you support good causes, you've put in the time, and you care about your community. The easiest way to do that? Volunteering. You could start by volunteering for a local campaign, but it's also a good idea to foster your interests outside the political arena, too. Join a non-profit, help the homeless, get involved with an organization you would support if you were in a position of power. Show the world just how well-rounded (and moral) you are. Running on the Jane/John party won't get you much attention (well, good attention at least). If you're serious about this politics thing, you need to affiliate yourself with a well-established political party. That way you'll get backing, you'll meet like-minded friends and cohorts, and in some cases, people will look at your label and assume you're good to go. Or don't. Whichever. That's what the Independent party is for. However, do note that running with this party and getting elected to office is like running...

While septum piercings take six to eight months to fully heal, you only need to follow a strict cleaning regimen for about a month. During this time, do a sea salt soak three times per day. During this time, you should also minimize contact with the piercing and keep creams and makeup away from your face. Fill a glass with about eight ounces of clean tap water. Add about a quarter teaspoon of sea salt. Make sure to use sea salt and not table salt. Mix the solution with a spoon until the salt dissolves. Use warm water, as this will help dissolve the salt. Avoid very hot water, as this may be uncomfortable. Soaking a septum piercing can be a little uncomfortable, but it's an important part of the healing process. Dunk your piercing in the solution for five to 10 minutes. If submerging your piercing in water becomes uncomfortable, you can also press a cotton ball saturated with the solution to your piercing for about 10 minutes. After soaking your piercing, take a clean q-tip. Dip the end of the q-tip into the piercing solution. Use the q-tip to gently rub away any any crust forming around your piercing. To keep your piercing clean, soak it around three times a day. Do one soak in the morning, another in the afternoon, and another in the evening. Do not soak your piercing more than three times a day, however, as this can dry it out and increase the risk of complication.

While sharing a blog can reduce the workload considerably and provide lots of interesting opinions, there are some key things to consider when making a decision to run a shared blog:  If you run it with one other person or with multiple people, this may turn out harder than you thought. This is because you have to constantly coordinate with at least one other person and be certain that he or she is keeping up his or her end of the bargain. You don't want to end up being the deadline nag. Choose someone you can trust. If you get in a fight with this friend you will be letting the fans down and may have to delete the blog or let your friend take it over. Choose someone who is as passionate about fashion as you are and who has a love of sharing ideas about it. He or she doesn't need to have the same ideas as you, although clashing all the time will cause readers to wonder why you decided to share a blog together! For example, you are solely responsible for meeting deadlines, ensuring that there is sufficient content each week and keeping on top of comments from your readers (you must interact with readers, or else they will feel that you're not interested in them, and they'll soon lose interest). You will need to keep coming up with fresh and interesting stories and angles. However, on the plus side, you have complete control and what you say, goes.

While simple, this method gets time-consuming if you’re trying to chill multiple beers. Simply turn the compressed air can upside down and spray the beer until frost forms. Holding the compressed air can upside down will help ensure that it’s at its coolest.  For safety, try putting your can or bottle into a Tupperware container and making a hole to spray the compressed air through. You should also use a pair of gloves to prevent any potential frostbite or injury to your hands. Also make sure to pour your beer into a clean glass after attempting this method, as some compressed air cans contain a bittering agent that is dangerous to ingest. If you don’t have central air, you can place your beer on top of or in front of your AC unit and turn down the temperature. It should take about 15 minutes for your beer to cool.  Make sure you watch the beers as they may cool faster than you anticipate and you don’t want them to explode. Use gloves or an oven mitt to remove the beer to prevent any potential injury to your hands due to the cold. If you live somewhere with a winter season or a place with easy access to snow, you can utilize the frozen water for your benefit. Simply open a door or window and place your cans or bottles outside. If possible, try to bury them as deep in the snow as you can. Just make sure you don’t forget them outdoors!

While some bags may be unnecessarily overpriced, you will find that good quality backpacks with more features and strong materials will cost you a bit more. You'll want to choose quality here, because the longer the bag stays in good shape, the more of a routine you can build around it. Look at canvas bags with reinforced seams costing around the $40.00 range. While you may think that backpacks are one size fits all, know that there are several factors that will make the bag fit better to your frame. You'll have to pay attention to the shoulder straps and the center of gravity.  Make sure the bag has two, wide straps. There are some backpacks that double as shoulder bags: while stylish, they won't be very good for carrying heavy weight as they'll put more weight on one side of your spine. Two wide straps will distribute the weight of the bag evenly to both your shoulders, while narrow straps will dig in and cause pain. Make sure the straps rest comfortably on your shoulders, and aren't too wide or too close together. Too close together, and the straps may feel tight and constricting while resting too close to your neck. Too far apart and they may tend to slip off your shoulders. Check the center of gravity. The heaviest of your books and belongings will rest at the very bottom of the bag, so you want to make sure that that center of weight isn't too low. The bottom of the backpack should rest at your hip line, or right about the height where you'd wear a belt. While your first thought may be to buy the roomiest backpack so you can fit more inside, think about buying a smaller bag. The smaller it is, the less you'll be tempted to overload it. While they might not be considered to be very cool, a rolling backpack can be loaded with a more weight than a carried backpack and can prevent injury too. If you think that you're going to be carrying a lot of heavy books, look into rolling backpacks or briefcases. Make sure they're allowed at your school though, as some schools consider them tripping hazards. You'll...

While some caution against pairing food and beer that originate from the same region, others recommend it. It may be a personal choice, but in some cases is worth the experiment. Try a Belgian Saison with farmhouse goat cheese or an Oktoberfest with bratwurst and sauerkraut. Food and craft beer are seasonal in nature, so make the most of what’s available to you in any given season. This fall, try your hand at Oktoberfest combinations. In the summer, experiment with pairing a pilsner with summer fare. Many craft beer labels will have suggestions for pairing a particular beer with specific food suggestions. Give these a try. You may be pleasantly surprised by the results. Pairing food and beer is a creative endeavor and you don’t always have to follow the rules. Flex your creative muscles and try some pairings that sound like they might have potential. You may win or you may lose, but it’s definitely worth taking the risk. Have fun!

While some concussion symptoms show up immediately, some don’t appear until days or weeks afterwards. Even if the person seemed fine after the incident, they may begin to show signs of a concussion later on.  The victim may exhibit signs such as slurred speech, confusion, nausea or vomiting, impaired balance or coordination, dizziness, blurred vision, or headache. These symptoms could indicate medical issues other than a concussion, so it’s important to have the person examined by a healthcare provider. Sudden changes in behavior or mood often indicate a concussion. If the person seems grouchy, irritable, angry, sad, or otherwise emotional, seemingly without a reason, they may have a concussion. If the person becomes violent, acts out, or loses interest in their favorite things or activities, this can also indicate a concussion. People that are suffering from concussions are often more sensitive to bright lights and loud noises. If these things make the person cringe or complain of pain, or if they have ringing in their ears, they may have a concussion. Look for behavior that contradicts their usual patterns or habits. If the person has lost their appetite or is eating much more than normal, it could be a sign of a concussion. Similarly, if the person has trouble sleeping or is sleeping excessively, they may have a concussion. Even if the person seems clear-headed after the incident, they may develop issues later on. If they seem unfocused, unable to concentrate, or have trouble remembering things that happened either before or after the incident, they likely have a concussion. If the person that you suspect may have a concussion is a child, determine if they seem to be crying more than usual. Though most of the concussion symptoms are the same in children and adults, children may cry excessively because they are in pain, feeling off, or don’t know how to express what is wrong.

While some hairstyles may work best with freshly washed, perfectly clean hair, the French knot actually works best with slightly dirty hair. When hair is immaculately clean, it’s often silky and hard to hold in place. While satin hair is often nice, it will slide out of your pins and the hairstyle won’t hold for the entire day. Hair that hasn’t been washed in a day or two will be full of natural oils that will help you create a shape that stays. If you have your heart set on wearing a French knot right now but you just washed your hair, don’t worry. You can mimic second day hair with product, which will be discussed later. Before you start creating your French knot, it’s important to work out all the tangles and knots. Begin combing from the bottom, slowly bringing your comb higher and higher. Don’t tug on your hair, as that can cause breakage. If you come across a tangle, gently focus on that section of hair until it’s untangled. Continue combing until you’re confident all of the tangles have been worked out. This step is especially important if your hair was recently washed, but it’s helpful to use a product on second or third day hair as well. Dry shampoo or texturizing spray both add a bit of “grit” to your hair, giving it texture that will keep it in your bobby pins. If your hair is silky and sleek, spray your hair with one of these products to make it a bit more coarse. Start spraying the product about an inch from your roots, coating your hair thoroughly and then running your hands through your hair to work the product in.

While some people are naturally clumsy, and many of us have occasional bouts of clumsiness, conditions such as diabetes, stroke, Parkinson’s disease, and dyspraxia (a syndrome that affects mostly children) can also cause consistent problems with coordination and clumsiness.  If you experience consistent dizziness or nausea, this could be a sign of blood sugar issues such as diabetes. Seek medical help if these symptoms are a frequent problem Sudden numbness or weakness, difficulty seeing, and loss of balance or coordination can be signs of a stroke. Call for emergency assistance immediately if you experience these symptoms. If your muscles sprain or strain easily, you experience frequent joint stiffness or muscle aches, or your joints dislocate easily, you may be suffering from a condition known as joint hypermobility. While this condition is usually not life-threatening, you should talk with a physician if you frequently experience these symptoms. Many medications, including psychiatric medications, migraine medications, and even allergy medications, can cause dizziness, balance issues, and a loss of coordination as side effects. These symptoms may be exacerbated by consuming alcohol. If you take medications that cause any of these side-effects, pay extra attention to your surroundings to reduce your chance of accidents. If you feel as though the side-effects of your medication have become unmanageable, talk with your doctor. He or she may able to suggest an alternative medication. If despite your increased attentiveness and physical training you’re still having coordination issues, your clumsiness may be a symptom of a more serious medical issue. Visit your doctor and explain the issues you’re having to see if any treatments are available.

While some people are quiet after a difficult event, other people will want someone to talk to. Make yourself available to them if they need a sympathetic ear, and be sure to listen to their issues. Don’t feel like you need to have any answers or solutions – just listening is often enough. Even if they do not take you up on it, offering to help out around the house can help someone going through tragedy feel less burdened by everyday life. You can even offer to provide company as they go to the store or complete their errands. Having a nice meal with someone is a great way to talk and show your affection. After someone loses a family member, for example, some people organize meals for the family so that they can forget about cooking for a while and enjoy a meal and some company. This can be big, from a surprise spa day with friends, to small, like going to the movie theater together. Even if you don’t talk, having your company will be enough to make the person feel better. Some tragedies, like the death of a loved one, take time to heal. Your friend might be angry or depressed, and they might lash out at friends when they feel upset. Don’t take it personally. Know that your time together is helping them feel better and be patient as they heal.

While some people experiencing extremely dry and chapped lips may assume they have this disease, exfoliative cheilitis is actually an extremely rare condition that few people actually suffer from. It is characterized by the following symptoms:  Cracking, flaking, itching, and/or burning of the lips. Discoloration, especially around the vermillion border of the lips (in other words, the outside edge of your lips).  Repeated peeling of a layer of excessive keratin that forms on the surface of the lips.  Swelling of the lips. The exact cause of the condition is unknown, but researchers have suggested that a variety of factors could cause it, including reaction to dental implants, hormone imbalances, diet imbalance, or liver malfunction, internal or external toxins, fungal or bacterial infections, improper diet, and poor mouth hygiene.  It has been suggested that this form of cheilitis may develop from other, less severe, forms. Exfoliative cheilitis may also be caused by a fungal mouth infection called “Candida Yeast Overgrowth”, or Thrush. You can buy a pH tape testing kit or you can check for signs. The best time to do this test is first thing in the morning, before brushing your teeth or drinking anything.  Start by collecting a mouthful of saliva and spit it into a clear glass filled with bottled or distilled water.  After 15 minutes check back - normal saliva should just float on top. Any of the following are positive signs that you have Candida Yeast Overgrowth and you should contact your doctor for treatment:  The saliva has formed strings that hang down into the water. There are cloudy globs that slowly sink or suspend below the surface.

While specialized, eco-friendly roof cleaners are available, they are a little more expensive. A home cleaner can be made with a quart (.95 L) of standard laundry bleach and a gallon (3.8 L) of water. Optionally, add ¼ cup (177.5 mL) of a non-ammonia heavy cleaner such as TSP (trisodium phosphate) for extra cleaning power.  Bleach is caustic to the roof and plants. At most, the bleach should be 50% of the solution. Lye products also work, but are caustic to the skin and should only be handled while wearing protective gear. Bring your garden hose or water sprayer up to the roof. Starting from the bottom, carefully wet the shingles. This keeps the solution from drying out immediately after application. When you see runoff, stop. Load the solution into a sprayer. Using slow, even strokes, coat the shingles. Make sure you don’t miss any spots, or else your roof will come out spotted. Leave the solution to soak in for 15-20 minutes. Use a water sprayer to apply enough force to dislodge algae and moss without damaging the shingles. In case of a lightly-stained roof, a garden hose may also be enough. Again, move slowly. Move back and forth in even strokes, making sure you reach all of the cleaner. Power washers should never be used. They will wear away your shingles. For deep stains, you’ll have to put on more solution. Let the roof dry first, then wet the roof and spray on more the same way you did before. Wait no more than 30 minutes and rinse it off again. Light stains left at this point may wash off over time as long as rain and sunlight can reach the area. A broom can also be used to scrub in cleaner. Use a broom of medium-stiff bristles and apply little pressure so you don’t damage the integrity of the shingles.

While straddling the beast like a horse may seem more natural, camel riders have far more comfortable when their legs are up and crossed. This better distributes your weight along the humps, saving your tailbone from unnecessary pain. Wrap one or both legs around the saddle post to look like a pro.  Without your legs clamped to the sides, you can sway with the camel's natural gait much more freely.  If you're more comfortable straddling, that's fine! The leg cross is not an absolute must, although it is more comfortable on long rides. A camel's walk is odd, irregular, and herky-jerky. It is not like the measured gait of a horse, so you need to ride accordingly. Instead of fighting it, let your body swing back and forth, holding onto the saddle post for support.  There is often another post behind your seat. Holding on to both of them, with a hand in front and a hand behind puts you in line with the camel's body and makes it easier to work with its movements. Tie in any valuables and electronics. This movement can easily cause things to shake loose and fall if you're not careful. Unfortunately, camels won't listen. Camels will listen to their master, however, and follow the line in front of them. While they may respond to the occasional tug or push, you shouldn't try to steer or direct them — they'll just be unhappy with it. This isn't just for your peace of mind. Loosening your muscles and taking a deep breath will also calm the animal down. Other camels may nip or play with your ride, but if you keep calm and cool, nothing will get out of hand. Panicking, however, may cause the creatures to panic as well. The calmer you are the calmer your ride will be.  Once you get used to the gait, relax your grip a bit. Take a deep breath. Let yourself move around, but trust that you won't fall off. You'll get used to it quickly enough. If the camel gets spooked or starts moving too quickly, stay calm. Keep a firm, but not tugging, grip on the reins and speak calmly until the camel relaxes. If you can, try to use the...

While stretching won't remove the knots, it can reduce your pain and definitely keeps future knots at bay. The following are exercises that you can try. These exercises, also known as shrugs, can help release tension in your neck and shoulder area, a common place for knots in your back to form.  Sit upright in a chair, preferably one with a straight back. You can also sit on the floor or stand, but make sure to maintain good posture. Bring your shoulders up to your ears. Roll them forward and then down in a clockwise motion. Repeat this exercise in the opposite direction: up, backward, down (counter-clockwise). Do two to four reps several times a day. This stretch will help blood flow into your shoulder blade area, which is a common site for knots.  Begin by placing your hands palms-down on your shoulders. The right hand goes on the right shoulder and the left hand on the left shoulder. Bring your elbows together, keeping your hands on your shoulder. You should feel a good stretch in your shoulder and upper back area. Hold this position for three to five seconds and take deep, even breaths as you hold. Then relax. Repeat this exercise several times throughout the day. This exercise can help release tense and tight muscles in your upper back and shoulder area.  Sit or stand with your arms at your sides.

While symptoms do accompany some stages of prostate cancer, there are almost no symptoms in the early stages. Consult your doctor concerning your risk factors to determine the best screening regimen for you. If you do experience any of the following symptoms, it is very important to schedule an appointment with your doctor as soon as possible. Several prostate cancer symptoms are tied to urination. You may notice that no matter what you do, you urinate more slowly and with decreased force. You may also experience burning while urinating dor similar reasons.  The urethra (a tube that carries urine from your bladder through your penis) passes through the center of the prostate gland. Tumor growth enlarges your prostate enlarges, which then presses on the urethra. This results in a weak urine stream and inability to start and stop urinating quickly.  Obstructive symptoms usually indicate significant progression of the disease. Symptoms of urinary obstruction can also increase the likelihood that the cancer has metastasized to the bones or lymph nodes. You may find yourself getting up several times during the night to urinate. Tumor growth can constrict your urethra, which makes it more difficult to empty your bladder completely. The urethral compression also causes the bladder to fill more easily, additionally causing the urge for frequent urination. Semen passes along a series of tubes and structures on the way to the urethra for ejaculation. The pressure from a growing tumor can cause blood vessels along this path to break and leak blood into your semen. You will notice a pink color or bright red blood in your semen (which is normally a milky white color). This is usually a “bony pain” that feels deep and throbs, often for no apparent reason. You may find it starts randomly and is difficult to relieve.  This type of pain may indicate metastatic prostate cancer meaning that the cancer has spread into your bones. The pain is a result of the cancer spreading into the spine and pressing on your spinal nerves.  The...

While the emo look does sometimes include pops of bright colors, it is usually made up mainly of dark shades. Black is an obvious choice, but your parents may not want you to wear head to toe black. Instead, work some other dark colors, such as navy, eggplant, and forest green, into your wardrobe to go along with black.  If your parents don’t want to buy dark clothing for you and encourage you to wear light and bright shades, try to compromise with them. Ask them if you can buy black and other dark colored clothing if you earn the money for them yourself. You might babysit, mow lawns, or do extra chores around the house to make the money you need. While black and other dark shades are the main color palette for emo clothing, you can work some small bits of bright color into your look. For example, you might wear a black tee shirt that features artwork with some red and white touches, or you might add a bright blue studded bracelet to an otherwise dark outfit. Loose clothing is a big no-no in emo fashion, so sweatpants and baggy jeans aren’t the best option if you want to dress emo. Instead, both girls and guys should opt for skinny jeans that fit closely to the body. Girls can also go with slim-fitting skirts, and pair them with dark tights or leggings underneath.  It’s best to choose black or dark denim skinny jeans to fit the emo look. Skinny jeans that feature rips, tears, or studs are perfect when you want to dress emo. If you aren’t comfortable in skinny jeans, you can swap them for straight leg jeans that are a little looser. Just be sure to avoid baggy jeans that you constantly need to pull up because they won’t fit the look at all. Another common trend in emo fashion is dressing in layers. In most cases, that means wearing a tee shirt under a hoodie. Just make sure that the tee and hoodie are both slim-fitting, so you don’t look so bulky. You can also swap the hoodie for a denim or leather jacket or layer a short-sleeve tee over a tight long-sleeve tee to mix up your look.  Vintage band tees make...

While the most difficult part of taking off a door happens at the end, when it comes to reattaching it, it gets way easier at the start. Due to the fact that keeping an unhinged door stable is tricky work, it's a good idea to keep your hinge pins very close so that as little time will be spent grabbing for them. Putting them in your back pocket will give you an easy time getting them when you need them. The easiest thing is to have someone holding the pins nearby. They can hand them to you as needed. If you remember how many books you needed to fill the door crack before taking the book off, it's recommended you use the same combination again. Otherwise, you may need to do a bit of trial and error before you find an elevation that accommodates the natural crack. Place them at the bottom of the arch for proper support.

While the order of your material will be determined by your debate form, the format for your debate outline should follow the basic guidelines for outlining. Organize your outline with main headings and subheadings marked by Roman numerals, capital letters, and Arabic numerals.  Subdivide information. Main headings will probably consist of arguments, while subheadings will contain different pieces of supporting evidence. Use correct symbols. Each level of the outline has a particular symbol to use. The main headings will use Roman numerals (I, II, III, IV). Subheadings use capital letters (A, B, C). Sub-sub headings use Arabic numerals (1, 2, 3). Keep these consistent throughout your outline. Indent each level. Indentation helps you follow the line of argument and keeps your outline organized. The introduction should include an overview of the research question or topic of debate, as well as a thesis statement for your overall argument. On a sheet of paper, write a bullet point with the word “Introduction.” Then, write an indented bullet point below this summarizing the debate topic. Finally, write another bullet point below this one that states your thesis.  Your thesis statement should explain which side of the debate you'll be taking and why your case is stronger than your opponent's. For example, if you're debating whether gas cars or electric cars are cleaner, your thesis statement might be: “Electric cars are cleaner than gas cars.” Create a second main heading marked as “Arguments” and write out your principal sub-argument as the first subheading in this new section. This line of argument should be the most convincing piece of evidence for why your overall argument is correct. For example, if you're arguing that electric cars are cleaner than gas cars because they produce less carbon dioxide, your first main point would be: “Electric cars produce less carbon dioxide emissions than gas cars.” Add additional subheadings below your first line of argument and briefly write out all the relevant pieces of...

While the pan is heating, crush eight cloves of garlic and add them to the oil. Stir the crushed garlic in the oil for one minute or until it starts to soften. If you are short on time, you can choose to use store-bought tomato sauce instead. Store-bought garlic and basil tomato sauces work particularly well for this recipe. These ingredients will make up the majority of your sauce. Turn the heat down to a simmer and let the sauce cook for approximately 20 minutes. Make sure that you stir the sauce occasionally so that it doesn’t burn on the bottom. Once the sauce is done simmering, you can add the basil, give it a good stir, and then set the sauce aside. Either keep it in the pan or put in a container if you plan on making your cannelloni later in the day. You can also separate the sauce into two different baking dishes if you prefer to have the sauce under the cannelloni. Or, pour half the sauce into the baking dish and save the other half of the sauce to pour over the cannelloni. This is an optional step but highly recommended. Scoop 250 grams of mascarpone (approximately two tubs) into a medium sized bowl. Add three tablespoons of milk to the mascarpone and beat the ingredients together. Add any desired seasoning and then set this topping aside.

While the process is safe and there is little chance of a critical error, it is always a smart idea to backup important data before making large changes to your system, especially reinstallation. Copy the important data to an external hard drive, an external flash drive, or burn them onto a DVD. Your Windows 7 product key is especially important. This can be found attached to the case that the CD came in or attached to your computer. Make a list of all the programs currently on your computer that you wish to keep so that you will be able to install them again after the reinstallation. Stick the disc into the computer and reboot your computer. Be sure that your computer is set to boot from CD/DVD. You can do this by following Step 2 of the first section of this guide. You will be prompted to enter a few preferences, such as language options, and you will be asked to agree to the terms of the Windows 7 license. You cannot install Windows 7 if you do not accept the license agreement. After the booting process, you will be presented with a choice: Upgrade or Custom installation. Select the Custom installation option as this is what you'll be using to wipe your hard drive clean for a reinstallation. Formatting a drive will wipe it clean of all data and make it suitable for reinstallation. Though formatting is not necessary, it is recommended when reinstalling to prevent potential problems with the system. Typically, Windows 7 will be installed to the C: drive. Installing Windows 7 can take anywhere from 30 to 120 minutes depending on your system. Once the installation is over, you'll be asked to name your computer and create an initial user account. For the majority of users, the default name will suffice. After creating your user account, you can use it to log onto your freshly reinstalled Windows 7 operating system.

While the veterinarian will use many of the same noise tests as you did, she will also check the dog's ear canals for signs of infection, discharge, or swelling that might be acting like ear plugs and impeding your dog's hearing. The Brainstem Auditory Evoked Response (BAER) test is a sophisticated laboratory test that can be used in 2 ways. It can give a you a yes/no answer as to whether your dog is deaf, or it can complete a more complex reading to determine the precise degree of deafness in your dog. The latter type of testing requires your dog to be sedated or anesthetized, and is rarely used. The equipment for a BAER test is expensive, around $25,000, and only a few specialist centers have access to one. During the test, a series of clicks are delivered into your dog’s ear canals via headphones. 3 small electrodes are attached the skin on your dog's head. These electrodes measure brain activity in response to the clicks.  The electrical response is recorded and interpreted by a computer program to give a pass/fail result. The specialist will then let you know if, based on the BAER test, your dog is deaf. This test can be done while your dog is conscious.

While there are some common foods that cause heartburn, everyone has different trigger foods. Keep track of the foods that seem to cause heartburn for you and try to avoid or at least limit your intake of those foods and prevent heartburn from flaring up.  Try keeping a food diary to help you keep track of the foods that cause you heartburn.  Common heartburn trigger foods include peppermint, caffeine, sodas, chocolate, citrus fruits and juices, tomatoes, onions, and high-fat foods. Plan to have your last meal of the day at least three hours before bedtime, since your body requires about two hours to digest the food that you have eaten. If you lay down while there is still food in your stomach, you have a higher chance of getting heartburn. One study found that eating your food too quickly can increase the risk of heartburn. People who eat their food too fast are also more likely to suffer from gastroesophageal reflux disease, also known as GERD. Take your time while you are eating to eliminate fast eating as a factor in your heartburn. Try putting down your fork between bites and chewing your food more to help slow yourself down while you eat. The calcium in milk can act as a temporary acid buffer, which may help to relieve your heartburn. Keep in mind that the effects of drinking milk are only temporary, so you may need to use other methods to help stave off heartburn. A cup of yogurt might provide the same benefit as drinking milk, helping to relieve heartburn. Chewing gum causes your mouth to produce more saliva, which acts as an acid buffer. While you chew gum you also swallow more often, pushing acid back down into your stomach. Chew a piece of gum for 30 minutes after each meal to help relieve heartburn symptoms. Some studies have found that chamomile and licorice tea are effective against heartburn symptoms when taken after a meal. Chamomile and licorice both have anti-inflammatory properties, which may be why they help to relieve heartburn for some people. Try both kinds of tea to see if either one...

While there is no scientific evidence that they make a face thinner, they could still help you tone your face. Here are some exercises to try:  Make a fish face by sucking in your cheeks and pursing your lips. Hold this for a few seconds. Tilt your head back so your chin points toward the ceiling. Drop your lower jaw and then raise it up. Hold this position for a few seconds while you stretch your neck. Shift your gaze to the left for a few seconds, then to the right. Shut your eyes tightly and scrunch up your face for a few seconds, then open it as wide as you are able to. If your face is round due to weight gain and not bone structure, try to cut back on overly sweet or fatty foods, such as fried foods, sodas, candy, and fries. Instead, try to eat more vegetables, fruits, grains, and lean meats. Drinking too much alcohol can make your face look more bloated and less thin the next day. If your face is round because you have gained weight, you can make it slimmer by getting into shape. Try going swimming, jogging, running, or walking a few times a week. Working out for just thirty minutes a day can have a dramatic impact on the way your body looks. The most expensive and permanent of face slimming techniques, face-lifts and plastic surgery are not without risks and may result in scarring and bloating. An untrained technician may also give you less-than-pleasing results. If this is something that you are considering, speak with an experienced plastic surgeon to review your medical history and see if this is an option for you.

While there’s no precise measurement for the meat pieces, authentic pigar pigar features thinly sliced pieces of sirloin beef. Slice thin pieces of beef that are 2 in (5.1 cm) to 3 in (7.6 cm) long.  If you prefer, you can cut the sirloin up into bite-sized chunks that are 2 in (5.1 cm) to 3 in (7.6 cm) long. If you're including liver, slice it thinly just like the beef. Use a spoon or your hands to mix the ingredients together until they are well combined. 4 tablespoons of soy sauce is the minimum amount for the marinade, but you can definitely add more if you prefer.  If you're using liver, add that to the bowl, as well. Wash your hands and utensils thoroughly after handling the raw beef. Stretch plastic wrap over the bowl or cover it with a plate. Tuck the bowl into your fridge and let the meat marinate in the spiced soy sauce for at least 1 hour. You can let the meat marinate for several hours if you prefer a stronger flavor. Don't marinate for more than 24 hours. Take off the plastic wrap and give the meat one last stir to make sure everything is thoroughly combined. Most of the soy sauce will be soaked up by the meat at this point.

While there’s no way to customize the size of your icons on your iPhone or iPad, there is a way to fix the issue of your device having abnormally large icons. If your device wound up in Zoom Mode, it’s easy to turn it off. If the icons are too large to navigate to the Settings app, double-tap the screen with three fingers to zoom out, then try again. There are two possible options here:  Standard: If the view is set to “Standard”, your phone is not in Zoom Mode, and you won’t be able to make the icons smaller. Zoomed: If it is set to “Zoomed”, changing it to “Standard” will reduce the icon size. Now you will see a new screen that says “Display Zoom” at its top. This will reduce the home screen (and the icons) to its normal, smaller size.

While they may make your hair look good for a few hours, hot styling tools like hair dryers, hair straighteners, and hair curlers can weaken your hair and hinder hair growth. Try to reduce your use of these tools or cut them out of your hair care routine. Do minimal hair styling, with minimal hair products, so your hair can stay healthy and grow out. If you decide to use hot styling tools, set them to a low heat setting, no higher than 325 degrees Fahrenheit, and apply a heat protectant spray, gel, or cream before you use the tool on your hair. This will help to protect your hair from drying out and breaking off. Pulling your hair back into a ponytail or a tight updo can lead to breakage and damaged strands. Rather than using clips, pins, and hair ties in your hair, go for a more relaxed look. Let your hair flow long and over time, it will grow out long and healthy. Reduce your shampoo use to only two to three times a week so you do not dry out or overwash your hair. This will allow your hair to stay strong and healthy, leading to better long term growth.  If your scalp gets oily or itchy due to underwashing, you can increase the amount of times you shampoo during the week. Alternatively, you can use dry shampoo to clean your scalp and hair in between washings. When you shampoo your hair, you should massage the shampoo into your scalp and try not to rub your hair with the shampoo. To keep your hair healthy, you should focus on conditioning your hair every time you shower. Conditioner is great for strengthen your hair, as it replaces the lipids and proteins in your hair shafts. You can also use a conditioning treatment to give your hair an extra boost, such as a treatment that contains natural ingredients to encourage hair growth and soothe your scalp. Rinse out your conditioner using cold water, which seals the cuticle. Avoid wrapping your wet hair tightly in a towel as doing this can cause breakage and put stress on the strands of your hair.

While they may not be glamorous, small gestures of kindness at a one-on-one level are a great way to be useful in your community. When you spot an opportunity to make a direct intervention and help another person in your community, do it with a smile.  For example, help an elderly man or woman cross a busy street. Or, give a few dollars to a homeless person. Better yet, buy them a meal and chat with them while they eat. If you see someone struggling to open a heavy door or carry a heavy package, go and help them. Our friends, family, and co-workers are members of society, and we can contribute by showing them emotional support. Or, if you need to talk about a negative experience with somebody else, let them share their own experiences, too.  For example, if a co-worker recently lost a loved one, say something like, “I’m so sorry, that’s hard to go through. If you want to talk about it, I’m happy to sit and listen.” Or if a friend is having a hard time in school, say, “That sucks. Sorry you’re struggling so much this term. Let’s have a coffee; want to talk about your classes?” in your community to build their character.
