Playing games together can be a relaxing way to hang out while keeping things moving. Play cards, board games, or games that don't require any supplies. Go for board games you both enjoy, or try out a new one neither of you knows. Figuring out the rules of a new game together is part of the fun.  If you're playing a competitive game, come up with flirty penalties and prizes. The winner should win something thrilling. Freak each other out with occult practices. Play with a Ouija board, or look up an ancient spell and try to cast it.  Play getting-to-know-you games. Even if you've been dating forever, there is always more to learn about a partner. Try two truths and a lie—you each take a turn saying two true things and one made-up thing, then try to guess one another's lie. Answer questions and fall in love again. Take turns answering questions designed by psychologist Arthur Aron to get you both to open up.  Put a spell on her. Take turns tracing short messages on each other's skin. Try to guess what is being spelled.  Play interactive video games, like Guitar Hero, Just Dance, and Wii Resort. If you don't already cook together, figuring out how to do so can be fun and rewarding. If you cook together all the time, take a novel approach to it. Make up a new recipe collaboratively based on random ingredients you have at home, or challenge one another to make something delicious based on ingredients the other partner picks out. Have a competition for who can make the best meal with the ingredients on hand, and blindfold each other for the taste test (even though you'll recognize your own dish, it'll be cute).  Try to recreate dishes you enjoyed together at a restaurant. If you bicker when you try to cook together, plan an elaborate meal collaboratively but split up the cooking. One of you can make the main and a salad, while the other can provide dessert, drinks, and a side. Hunt down your favorite childhood cartoons online. Try to remember the weirdest favorites you had. Take turns picking a favorite cartoon to...

Playing gigs or shows will get your music heard, help you create a local fan base, and help you create a name for yourself. Gigs come in all shapes and sizes, and when you're first starting out, any bit of exposure you get is a bonus. You can play at gigs and events such as:  Charity events Local sports games Bars, clubs, lounges, and coffee shops  Weddings and parties Concerts, exhibitions, and battle of the bands nights One of the first major milestones of all bands or singers is the recording of their first demo song or album. A demo is something that you can distribute far and wide, sell at gigs, and use to promote yourself and your music. There are thousands of independent and local recording studios out there you can use to record a single or a few tracks, and you might be surprised to find that there's even one in your town. A quick Internet search should give you an idea of where to go to record some music. In order to do this, you need an idea of what genre of music you play. think about what musicians inspired you, what other musicians you sound similar to, and what kind of people your music might appeal to.  Knowing your sound is important because it can help you direct your music at your target audience. For instance, if you're a rapper, you might want to consider booking yourself a gig at a local poetry slam rather than at a country bar. Understanding your audience can also help you when you want to stand out in a crowd. For example, if you know your music appeals to cat lovers for some reason, you could book yourself a show at a local animal shelter fundraiser.

Playing is one of the ways young children learn best, and it’s also great entertainment.  Draw parts of a letter one by one and let your child try to guess what letter you are making.  Call out letter names and have your child try to make the shape with their body.  Sing the traditional alphabet song together or look up alternate songs online. Have your child put letter cards in alphabetical order or turn them upside down and say the names of the letters together as you turn each one over. Use letter cards for games like matching and memory. Use street signs, billboards, magazines, clothing, or anything with words on it.  Play a game of “I Spy” and find letters and objects that begin with letter sounds your child knows.  Point out stop signs, exit signs, golden arches, and other familiar signs and talk about what they mean. Kids can learn to “read” the meanings of these objects before they can actually read the words.

Playing music as you walk up to the presentation area and for a few seconds before you start to speak shares your personality and gets the audience’s attention. This works best if you can reference the lyrics or artist as the music fades and you begin your presentation.  If you don’t have music that can tie to your presentation, you can use a song with the theme of beginning. For example, if you are presenting at a sales meeting, play some soft jazz as participants enter. Then, when it’s time for you to start, play the Black Eyed Peas chorus of “Let’s Get it Started” to get your audience’s attention. You can then open with an energetic “Good morning!” or “Good Afternoon” as the music ends. Remember to choose music that’s appropriate to the event. An academic conference may not be the best place for pop music, for example (unless you are presenting research on pop music, of course). Share a short, relevant quote before you say your name. This can get your audience interested in the topic. It’s even better if the author of the quote is a big name in the industry you are speaking to. The audience will recognize the name and it will lend credibility to your presentation.  For example, if you are presenting on the design of a new user-friendly coffee machine, you may start your presentation by referencing Elon Musk: “Any product that needs a manual to work is broken,” and then go on to say “My name is Laurie Higgens, and my coffee machine doesn’t come with a manual.” Speak briefly about your relevant experience and qualifications, and then dive into presenting your design. Avoid cliche or overused motivational quotes the audience has probably already heard many times. Be sure to correctly cite your quote. Starting by presenting a statistic that illustrates a problem that your presentation will address or attempt to solve can be a great attention-grabbing move. In many cases, the audience might not even realize there is a problem until you point it out to them. Once you do, they will be more alert and invested in...

Playing with the earring could irritate the piercing and prevent healing. Additionally, germs from your hands could lead to infection.  Remember not to pick at any crusty residue that builds up around the piercing. It can take up to 6 months for a daith piercing to heal. Do your best not to get shampoo into the piercing when you wash your hair. If you have long hair, wear it up as much as possible to keep hair products out of the piercing. Avoid using hairspray; if you do, don’t spray it near the piercing. Beauty and cosmetic products can cause irritation and block air circulation, which can interfere with the healing process. It’s especially important to avoid submerging the piercing in pools, lakes, and hot tubs. Bacteria in these bodies of water can lead to infection.  Bathtubs can also harbor bacteria, so take showers instead of baths while the piercing is healing. If you do go swimming, cover the piercing with a wound-sealing waterproof bandage, which you can purchase at your local pharmacy. Wipe your phone, earphones, and other objects that come into contact with your ear daily with sanitizing pads. Try to limit your use of earphones, and hold your phone to your other ear whenever possible. If you wear glasses, clean the parts that slip over your ears at least daily. It’s also wise to cover your pillow with a clean tee shirt. That way, if you do sleep on the piercing, it’ll be touching a clean surface.  If you can’t get comfortable in any position other than on your side, try sleeping on a neck pillow. Sleep on your side with your ear in the neck pillow’s opening to protect the piercing from pressure and friction. Additionally, wash your bedding weekly. Dirty sheets and pillowcases can lead to infection.

Playing with your puppy is a great way to show her you love her. Keeping her active through games will keep her physically and mentally healthy as she grows into an adult. A walk may not seem like a game at first, but you can turn it into one by letting your puppy explore her environment during the walk.  Be sure your puppy has been fully vaccinated before you take her for a walk in public places or allow her to interact with other dogs. Let your puppy occasionally stop and smell flowers during your walk.  Introduce your puppy to new people and dogs during the walk. Carry some treats with you — the person to whom you introduce your puppy can give your puppy treats to help establish a friendly relationship with her.  Encourage your puppy to walk up on the curb. She can have fun balancing on the curb versus walking in the street or on the sidewalk. Practicing basic commands during your walk, such as "sit" and "stay," can help reinforce her training. Your puppy will love playing hide and seek. One way to play this is to hide yourself. Have a friend stand with your puppy as you hide, then call your puppy’s name every few seconds until he finds you. Reward your puppy with treats and verbal praise when he finds you.  If you have been teaching your puppy to come when called, hiding yourself is a good way to practice this command.  You can also hide his favorite toys. Be aware that your puppy may become frustrated if he is not able to find his toy, which may cause him not to like the game.  Hide the toy in easy-to-find places (behind the couch, under a chair) until your puppy becomes better at using his nose to find items. Playing fetch with your puppy is a good way to exercise her, and teaches her how to focus on you and follow your instructions. A small toy or a soft doll are good fetching toys, since your puppy would be able to easily grab and retrieve them.  Do not play fetch with sticks. Sticks could injure your puppy’s mouth, or cause digestive problems if she swallows pieces of the wood.  If your puppy does...

Plenty of people hang on to old baby clothes for non-sentimental purposes, and are more than willing to give them away. Let friends, neighbors, family, and coworkers know that you're in need of baby clothes — even if they don't have kids, they might know someone who has baby clothes they'd be willing to give you. Not only that, someone might even have a crib or car seat they no longer need and would be happy to pass on.  Ask relatives and friends before asking co-workers and casual acquaintances. People who are closer to you will probably be more eager to help out. Don't limit yourself to asking people who have recently had kids. You can also ask people whose children have long outgrown their baby clothes. Don't be afraid to ask people without kids for help, too. Your best friend may be single and without children, but she may have a brother or sister with five kids and plenty of extra clothes. Even if someone does not have any baby clothes they could donate to you, he or she may know someone that does. Asking for help can take a toll on one's pride, but is sometimes necessary. Friends and family are more likely to be there for you when times get tough, so express to them that you need help buying baby clothes. Allow them to help you if they are willing to. Hold onto the clothes that your friends and family members buy you. If you have another child, you can re-use these clothes or give them back to friends and family as they have their own children. Even if you don't have baby clothes to trade, you can barter other services in exchange for baby clothes. Knowing how to market your skills may be able to help you stock your infant’s closet without spending a penny.  If a neighbor down the street had a baby a few months before you, ask her if she would be willing to exchange a few outgrown clothes for a free night of babysitting. If a coworker needs help with a bake sale and you happen to have cooking skills, offer to bake some of your famous cookies in exchange for baby clothes.

Plucking is generally painful, so be aware of that when you begin. If you pluck partway along the hair it will break rather than pluck cleanly out. Be cautious that you don’t start plucking hairs that are part of the main shape of your eyebrow; there’s a risk of over-plucking if you get caught up in it. “Less is more” when it comes to tweezing for men. The goal is not to create a clean outline, but instead to just remove the stray hairs that really stand out. Use the comb to line your eyebrows up as they usually grow, outward toward your temples. Pluck hairs whose root is clearly past the end of the main portion of the eyebrow. Only pluck hairs that grow alone, separate from the rest of the eyebrow. If your eyebrows tend to meet in the middle, you may want to reduce this extra growth. Start plucking at the center and work outward toward one eyebrow first and then toward the other. It is personal preference how much you want to pluck, but less is usually better.  Use your thumb as a guide for how far apart your eyebrows should be. Place your thumb directly centered between your eyebrows and pluck the hairs that fall under your thumb. If you over-pluck your eyebrows, you’ll start to affect the natural shape, which is not usually what guys want to do. With your tweezers still in hand, look for hairs that are growing significantly above the main eyebrow. Pluck those strays. You’ll also want to look below the eyebrow, toward your eyelid. Pluck these hairs as well.

Plug in your hair dryer and put it on the hot setting. Hold the hair dryer a couple of inches away from the decal and start by keeping it aimed at the center for a few seconds. Then, slowly move to the other parts of the decal. Continue this for several seconds until the decal is warm to the touch. After you’ve put the hair dryer away, it may be a good idea to apply a safe oil or alcohol-based substance to further influence the decal’s edges. Gently rub the substance on the corners. Use your fingernail, a rubber spatula, or and angled old credit card to carefully peel or scrape away the decal. If there is a clear weak spot on your decal, make sure to start removal there. Unless you’re using it to remove a decal from a window, don’t use a razor blade. When not used extremely carefully, a razor blade may create permanent scratches to your painted surfaces.

Plug the iron in and turn it on to the highest setting. Give it a few minutes to start warming up—it needs to be nice and hot in order to work effectively.  The iron will be very hot after you’ve turned it on. Touching the surface could result in a painful burn. When you’re not using the iron, set it on a hard, level surface where it won’t get tipped over. Press the iron into the cloth above the dent and move it around using slow circular motions. Make a few passes, gradually widening the area that you’re ironing. Keep heating the wood until the cloth is dry, then lift a corner to check your progress.  The heat from the iron (coupled with the moisture of the water) will cause the compressed wood in the dent to swell, returning it to its original form. Try not to let the iron sit in one place for too long, or it may scorch the cloth or the wood underneath. A single ironing might be all you need to deal with minor dents. For more severe depressions or areas with multiple marks, continue adding water and ironing slowly until the worst of the dents have been raised.  Between attempts, be sure to dampen the cloth with fresh water or grab a fresh paper towel. You might not be able to remove deep dents entirely. However, steaming will help to level them out and make them less noticeable.

Plug your waffle iron in and heat it for at least ten minutes. The iron can heat while you prepare the waffle batter. You'll need to add other ingredients to your pancake mix to improve the texture of your waffles. Measure 1 cup (250 g) pf pancake mix, 3/4 cup (180 ml) of water, 1/4 cup (60 ml) of oil, 2 tablespoons (25 g) of sugar, and 1 large egg yolk into a mixing bowl.  Extra water, oil, and sugar will ensure that the waffle becomes crisp and brown on the outside while it stays fluffy on the inside. If you'd like to double the recipe (to make one dozen waffles), just double all of the ingredients. Use a wire whisk to combine the batter ingredients in the mixing bowl. Stop whisking as soon as the mixture is combined and set it aside. Don't worry if the batter is still a little lumpy. You want to avoid over beating it or the waffles will be tough. Get out another mixing bowl and place the two large egg whites into it. Use a stand or hand mixer to whisk the whites on high speed. Keep whisking until they form stiff peaks when you lift the whisk out of the bowl. into the batter. Transfer the egg whites to the bowl with the batter and gently fold them in until they're just combined. Take a metal spoon and twist your wrist as you lift the batter up and over the egg whites. Keep lifting and turning the batter until the egg whites are incorporated. Once the waffle iron is hot, scoop 1/2 cup (about 120 g) of the batter into the center of the waffle iron. Slowly lower the lid on the batter. Cook the waffle for a few minutes or until steam isn't coming out of the waffle iron anymore. Carefully lift up the lid use a fork to lift the waffle out. Cooking time will depend on your specific waffle iron. Most waffles will cook within two to four minutes.

Plywood comes in several different types of wood and thicknesses. The type of wood does not matter too much. A ¾ in (2 cm) thickness is ideal, especially if you live in an apartment and there are folks who live beneath you. If noise is not an issue, ½ in (1.3 cm) thick plywood will work. Plywood usually comes in 4x8 ft (1.2x2.4 m) boards. Two of these boards positioned side-by-side is usually ideal for a home dance floor. Sealing your dance floor will help make it much more resilient and help it last longer. You’ll apply sealant to the wood you’re using for the dance floor's surface  before assembling the dance floor.  Sealants are available at the hardware store or online. The easiest option is laying the boards down flat on a tarp.  If you have a couple saw horses, you can also position the board on the saw horses with a tarp on the ground to catch any dripping sealant. Most likely, you will be directed to sand the board, clean it with mineral spirits, apply a coat of the sealant with a brush, allow it to dry, and do it all again. Be sure to follow the directions of your sealant closely, as they will help ensure a good, smooth seal.  Apply three or four coats and sand the surface before each coat. Once a coat has dried, walk around the board and look at from several angles. Pay extra attention to any patches that aren’t shiny when applying the next layer. When assembled side by side, two sheets of plywood will make the perfect sized dance floor for home use in a carpeted room. If you want the dance floor to be lighter and a bit easier to move, have the hardware store cut each sheet down to 3.5x8 ft (1x2.4 m). Before fastening the boards to one another, inspect each side of your plywood boards. Position the boards on the floor with the side that will be the dancing surface facing down. The sides of the boards facing up will be the bottom of your dance floor, which will allow you to attach a hinge and fasten the two boards together. When positioned snugly side by side, the boards will make an 8x8 ft (2.4x2.4...

Poaching fish is a great way to preserve it for a few extra days so you don't have to eat it the same night you bring it home. If you happen to have access to a lot of fresh fish, and you want to be able to eat some later in the week, this method will allow you to keep it in the refrigerator longer than you otherwise would, then prepare the fish using any method you choose when you're ready.  For example, if you want to have fried fish on Friday night, but you know the fish won't keep until then, poaching it will preserve the texture and flavor and allow you to finish the dish when you're ready. Of course,  freezing or  canning are also excellent methods for preserving fish. Using either the court bouillon or olive oil poaching method, poach the fish for half the recommended cooking time. Check the fish after half the time has passed; it should be slightly opaque in color, but not cooked enough to easily flake. When the fish is about half cooked, remove it from the poaching liquid. Place it in the refrigerator and use the poached fish within a week. Since it's only half cooked, you can sauté, grill, or fry the fish and retain its flavor and texture without overcooking it.  Make sure the fish is cooked completely when you use it in your intended dish. Whether you sauté, grill or fry it, be sure it's opaque and flaky. Don't keep the fish for longer than a week before using. Even fully-cooked fish doesn't keep forever in the refrigerator.

Pocky are sweet Japanese cookies that come in many flavors. You can find them at your local Asian market or in the international aisle at a grocery store. Milk chocolate is the most popular flavor, but you can also find Pocky in other flavors too, such as matcha (green tea), strawberry, and cookies 'n cream. If you can’t find Pocky, any long, thin biscuit, such as a breadstick, will do. If you’re playing the game with a group of people, the rules of the game are the same. You can have two couples play at once. Then, the winners of both games can face off in their own Pocky game.  The Pocky game often results in a kiss, so it makes sense to pick a partner you wouldn’t mind kissing to begin with. You can use this as an opportunity to break the ice with your crush or bring you closer to a good friend. The Pocky game is meant to be a fun (and sexy!) party game. Bring Pocky to a party, and then simply propose play. You might say, “Has anyone played the Pocky game before?” You’ll either be met with enthusiasm or curiosity. Either way, you’ll have a captive audience to teach the rules. You can also play the game at other occasions too, such as sleepovers. Because you’ll be getting close to the other players, it’s considerate to brush your teeth so that you have good breath for the Pocky game. If you don’t have access to a toothbrush at the party, chewing a stick of mint gum for a little bit would do.  Spit the gum out before you begin to play so that it doesn't get stuck on the Pocky. Make sure that you are in good health. Don't play this game if you are sick. Brushing alone won't get rid of those germs.

Point the laser at the ground or the wall near your cat. Move the laser to catch your cat's eye, then keep it still for a moment to build suspense. Move the laser around, slowly, and your cat may begin to stalk it like prey. Do not move the laser around too rapidly, or your cat may lose spirit. Just when your cat pounces onto the laser, move it quickly away.  You can find laser pointers online, at pet-supply stores and at most technology stores. Be careful not to point the laser into your cat's eyes. Once you have your cat under the spell of the laser, try not to lead it anywhere dangerous. Cats may run headlong into a chair or wall because they are so focused on the dot. Use materials that will make enough noise to catch your cat's attention, but not so much noise to scare your cat away. Ball up the paper, wave it slowly until your cat is tracking it with his eyes, and then throw it a short distance for your cat to chase. This may also work with food or toys. Gently "wrestle" with your cat as though your hand were another cat. Let the cat rub its head against your hand, and let it bat your hand with its hand. Be wary: a cat won't usually use its claws while play-fighting, but it might nibble or bite your hand. Avoid using both hands when playing, as the cat will feel outnumbered and flee. This is, incidentally, a good way of ridding yourself of a playful cat when you're no longer in the mood. This might sound boring to you, but many cats love to swat and play with them. Roll the ball gently toward or past your cat to get some attention. If the cat's eyes track the motion of the ball, it means that he sees the ball as potential "prey." Some older cats may not bother to move if you throw the ball. You can give your cat a sprig of fresh or dried catnip, or you can buy a catnip toy for your cat to play with. Many cats love the smell of catnip, and some cats become visibly intoxicated by it. They may stare into space, stumble around, and roll on the floor in pleasure.  Be warned that every cat reacts differently...

Ponytails and  half-ponies are the way to go when running around.  French braids are also a great way to keep your hair out of your face when playing a sport. Wearing your hair up will allow you to sprint off at a moment’s notice without having to worry about getting hair in your eyes. Of course, this is only if you want to (and if your parents will let you.) Having short hair is good for playing sports--wear a headband to keep any bangs or fly-away strands out of your eyes.

Ponytails are incredibly versatile. Your ponytail's placement can dramatically affect your look.  High ponytails sit on the crown of your head so that the ponytail is visible from the front. These are very dramatic and fashionable.  Tying your hair just a few inches lower gives a more sporty look. Low ponytails at the nape of your neck can make you look down-to-earth. Another less common type of ponytail is 1 tied to the side of the head instead of the back. Side ponytails can make you seem quirky and fun.

Pool cues weigh between 17 ounces and 21 ounces, with most players preferring either 19 ounce or 20-ounce cues. The weight affects your shot, so it’s important to choose a weight that you can easily use.  Most of the cue’s weight is in the butt end because the butt is thicker than the shaft. If you test the cue and it feels too heavy in your back hand then opt for a lighter cue. Short people tend to want a lighter cue because a heavier one will cause them to lower the butt and raise the cue’s tip during the shot. This results in not connecting solidly with the ball. Some players prefer a heavier cue for breaking and a lighter cue for skill shots. The wrap is the part of the cue that you hold with your back hand. Since this is the part of the cue that you have the most skin contact with, you want to be comfortable. Wrap options include leather and linen, but some cues may not have a wrap at all.  If you tend to have sweaty hands when you shoot pool, you want a grip rather than bare wood or fiberglass. Your best options are Irish linen or leather which are both good for absorption. Rubber grips are also available but you want to make sure that the rubber is of high quality and feels smooth and dry without any stickiness. Rubber wraps might deteriorate faster than leather or linen wraps. This is not something you can choose just by looking at it. You need to hold the cue in your hand and choose a wrap that feels best to you. Hold the butt of the cue at eye level and stare down its length. Slowly spin the cue to see around the whole surface. Look for any abnormalities in the cue. Only buy a cue that is perfectly straight.  Most pool cues are manufactured to a high standard, so it’s unlikely that you’ll find a new cue that is crooked, but it is still good to check. It is sometimes recommended to roll the cue along a flat surface to see if it rolls smoothly, but this is not always a valid test as you can’t tell for sure if the surface is perfectly flat. Tips come in soft, medium and hard. Each tip type offers a...

Pool parties usually take place in the summer and are located outside, to enjoy the nice weather. When picking a date for your pool party you will want to consider the weather. You want a warm day, with no rain in the forecast. It is also best to host your pool party on the weekend, so more people are able to attend.  In case you have to cancel due to poor weather, you may want to schedule a rain date. This is especially important if you live in a rainy area and are hosting outside. If you are planning your pool party to celebrate an event, such as a birthday, you may want to pick a date close to the event. The most important component of a pool party is having a pool for you and your guests to use. There are a variety of options for finding a pool for your party.  Using your own pool or a friend or family members' pool: If you have a pool, hosting at your own house is convenient and provides a private location for your party. Many communities have pools that are open for use by the public. There is often a small fee to use community pools, but they are very reasonably priced. Some hotels with pools and swim attractions will allow you to purchase day passes to use the facilities without staying at the hotel. There are indoor and outdoor options of both hotel pools and water parks. If you don’t have your own pool to use, you will want to compare your options to find the best fit for your party. When picking your location you will want to consider a few different factors, such as, price, size of pool, location, rules and regulations, availability, and other amenities.  Pick a pool that fits your budget. For example, going to a hotel or water park will be a more expensive option. Some hotels and water parks have party packages that include extra services to help cater to your party.

Poop of breastfed children can come in many shades.  Your baby’s poop might be green, brown, or yellow.  The texture might be seedy or pasty, and might be as runny as diarrhea.  It will also, compared to normal poop, smell a bit sweet.  Yellowish to yellow-green, grainy poop is also normal starting at about five days after birth for breastfed babies.  Your baby’s stool will be loose. Green-brown, yellow-brown, yellow-green hues are all also normal for breastfed infants. Babies who are not breastfed will have healthy poop of either a mustard yellow or a brown color.  Their stools are likely to be larger and less frequent than those of babies who are breastfed.  The texture should resemble peanut butter.  Medium brown poop is completely normal.  Formula-fed infants may produce light brown and pasty stool. Light-tan or yellow-tan poop is also normal. This tends to happen more in formula-fed babies. If your baby’s poop is of a normal consistency -- which, depending on the baby, could range from the firmness of hummus to peanut-butter -- other colors alone need not cause concern about your baby’s health.  However, there are a wide variety of other colors linked to various foods.   If the baby has eaten berries that have become undigested, the poop may be of a streaked dark-blue color.  Pumpkin or carrot might cause your baby’s poop to be orange due to the beta carotene (an antioxidant) within the vegetables.  Orange poop might also result from a random mix of other foods. Spinach, broccoli, and other green foods might dye your baby’s stool green. Foods or drinks with food color or dyes can also change the color of the poop. In addition, certain medicines can occasionally change the color of the poop, as well as lead to some diarrhea or constipation. For example, an antibiotic called cefdinir can cause orange poop, and iron supplements can lead to dark green poop.

First, read the English article below.

Poor body posture is essentially caused by habitually slouching forward while sitting or standing. Contrary to popular belief, your spine is not meant to be straight like a pole. A healthy spine has three natural curves, which makes it look like the letter S from the side. A forward curve at the neck meets an outward curve in the mid back, which blends into another forward curve in the low back. As such, from a side view, your shoulders should be in line with your hip joints (in the middle of your pelvis) and ankles.  When sitting, standing, and walking, remind yourself to push your shoulders back, tighten your abdominal muscles, lift your chin up and keep your gaze straight ahead. Don't continually lean forward, look down or sit at crooked angles. Poor posture is particularly debilitating for children because their growing bones can be somewhat deformed from habitual slouching and misalignment. These postural deformities are very difficult to reverse in adulthood. Poor posture puts extra strain on muscles and joints, which can lead to chronic aches and pains and increase the risk of arthritis and injuries. Shoulder injuries from playing sports or other traumas, such as car accidents or falls, can also misalign your shoulder girdle and upper body. For example, dislocated shoulders, separated shoulders, upper arm or collarbone fractures, and various degrees of sprains and muscles tears can cause the shoulder joint to sag lower or jut forward more than it should. As such, make sure your shoulder injury is properly treated and fully healed before returning to activities that stress it.  Physiotherapy is sometimes needed after a significant shoulder injury to regain full strength within the shoulder girdle muscles and attain full range of motion within the glenohumeral ("ball and socket") joint. Not being able to fully move and use your shoulder — due to chronic pain, an unhealed joint injury, arthritis — can quickly atrophy and shorten surrounding muscles. Tight, weak muscles then act to slowly pull the shoulder...

Poor eating habits like chewing with your mouth open or eating with your fingers can be off-putting. If you are sharing a meal with your date, make a good impression by showing off your table manners. Make an effort to hold your utensils properly, use your napkin, chew with your mouth closed, and keep your elbows off the table. It can be tempting to keep your cell phone closeby while you're out, but it is rude to do it on a date. Keep your phone in your purse or pocket and give your date your full attention. If you need to have your phone on hand in case of emergencies, place it face down on the table and only touch it if it rings or vibrates. If you are only on alert for a call from one particular number, set it to a particular ring tone and volume setting so you aren't interrupted unnecessarily. A charming person will likely pay you at least a compliment or two during your date. Say a simple "thank you" and offer a compliment in return. Avoid rejecting any compliments your date gives you by being self-deprecating or untrusting.  For instance, if your date tell you that you look beautiful, tell them something like, "you look lovely, too" in return. Avoid a negative response like, "no, I'm not that attractive." You should always be prepared to pay on a date, or to split the bill equally. Bring cash, a debit card, or a credit card when you go out and reach for your wallet when it is time to pay. If your date insists on paying for you, thank them kindly and offer to pay for the next activity you share.

Poor spelling is the quickest way to get rejected. If your CV is sloppy or riddled with errors, potential employers will be unimpressed. Double (and triple) check that you have spelled the name of the company correctly, as well as any companies you have worked for in the past. CVs that are concise and well-written tend to do better than long-winded CVs that have repetitive information. Make sure you don’t repeat yourself--it’s better to list many of your traits than the same few traits over and over again. What do you think about the layout and the information written there? Do you come across as a professional? What do they think could be added or taken out? Would they hire you if they were a company? Look to see if there are any other materials they would like you to send in along with your CV. Companies may ask for a  cover letter or samples of your work (such as articles you may have written).

Pop the caps off 15 acorns and toss the nuts into a powerful electric blender. Blend on high to pulverize the acorns into powder.  You could use two large oak galls instead of acorns if desired. Instead of a blender, you could also grind the nuts into powder using a stone mortar and pestle. Place the powdered nuts in a small to medium non-reactive bowl. Add 1 cup (250 ml) of room temperature water to the powder. Mix to combine using a plastic spoon. Note that the level of the water will need to be high enough to cover the bone you plan to dye. If you need to create more dye, you will need to add six more powdered acorns or one more powdered oak gall for each 1/2 cup (125 ml) of water. Place one steel wool pad in a separate non-reactive bowl and add 1 cup (250 ml) of lemon juice or vinegar.  Note that 2 Tbsp (30 ml) of powdered rust could be used instead of a steel wool pad if desired. You may want to choose a container with a lid since this solution will sit out overnight without being used. It must be prepared now, however, and not immediately before use. Place the bone in the bowl holding the acorn solution. Set the container aside and allow the bone to soak overnight, or 8 to 12 hours.  Make sure that the bone is completely submerged in the acorn dye. A longer soak time will lead to a darker dye. If you only want a light brownish-gray color, you can cut this amount of time down by about half. When the bone has had enough time to soak, remove it from the acorn dye. Hold the bone over the container for a minute so that any excess solution can drip off.  Do not worry if the dye is not quite the right color when you remove it from the acorn dye. The chemical reaction that the dye undergoes when immersed in the iron salt solution will alter the color and set the dye. You may want to wear rubber or plastic gloves when removing the bone to prevent your fingers from getting dyed, as well. Place the bone in the iron salt solution and allow it to soak overnight, or for 8 to 12 hours.  The bone must be completely...

Pop the hood on your vehicle to access the engine compartment. Find your air filter—these are almost always housed inside a large plastic box that makes them easily identifiable. If there are ring clamps or latches holding the filter in place, disengage them and lift the filter straight out.  Depending on the make and model of your vehicle, the air filter may be flat, circular or conical in shape. The methods used to clean the filter will be the same regardless of its design.  You may also want to stick a towel or some other object into the air intake port to keep debris from entering the engine after the filter has been removed. K&N advises that their air filters only require service if any of the filter’s folds are covered so thickly with dust or dirt that they’re no longer visible. If you can still plainly see the pleats on your filter, it may not need to be cleaned, even if it appears dirty. If your filter looks clogged or fuzzy, or if it's lost all traces of its reddish oil coat, it’s probably due for a cleaning. Give the filter a gentle shake to dislodge whatever debris is resting on the surface. Don eye protection and a breathing mask if you have them to avoid inhaling dust particles. Be careful not to shake the filter too hard or handle the pleats directly, as this could potentially damage them.  You can also use a soft-bristled brush to remove dust without harming the filter. To avoid making a mess, it’s recommended that you remove your air filter outside. Grab the bottle of aerosol cleaner that came included with your filter. Spray the filter liberally on both sides. It’s important that you clean both the inner and outer surfaces of the filter, not just the dirty exterior pleats. Make sure each individual pleat has been thoroughly misted with cleaner.  Use as much solution as you need to completely coat both sides of the filter. K&N's proprietary air filter cleaning solution can be purchased online or wherever auto accessories are sold. As the cleaner sits on the filter, it will begin to cut through...

Poppy seeds require a period of stratification in order to germinate. That means they need to be exposed to cold or frost before they'll sprout. It's usually a safe bet to sow poppy seeds in very early spring, while there's still a good chance of frost. If you're in an area with mild winters, sow the seeds in the fall, so they get plenty of exposure to cooler temperatures before the weather warms up in the spring. After 14 to 28 days, the seeds will begin their germination, sending up shoots. Poppies are sown on the surface, rather than buried in holes. To prepare the soil, simply loosen its surface a bit with a garden rake. There's no need to till it to a depth of more than an inch or so, if that. In fact, doing so may make it more difficult for your poppies to grow. Sprinkle them over the freshly loosened dirt. In nature, poppies drop their seeds, which are small enough to easily be scattered across the ground by the wind. In this spirit, scatter the seeds and let them fall where they may, rather than trying to plant the poppies in rows. It will be difficult to keep the seeds confined to the spot where you drop them. Keep the area moist by sprinkling water over the soil. Don't soak it, though, or you may drown the delicate seeds. The seedlings will sprout when the weather warms in the spring. Thinning helps the plants to get bigger and produce more flowers. To thin it is a good idea to cut the plant tops off that you are thinning with scissors so  not to disturb the remaining poppies roots. When you see them sprout, you can thin out the poppies to allow each plant a bit of room to grow. Different varieties will come with different instructions as to how much spacing they need. This step isn't totally necessary, but it can give you more control over the final appearance of your flower bed. They do well in poor soil that other plants may not be able to survive in. The blooms will fall off and the pods will remain. You can harvest these to plant next season. Some varieties even produce edible seeds you can use...

Population size refers to the total number of people within your demographic. For larger studies, you can use an approximated value instead of the precise number.  Precision has a greater statistical impact when you work with a smaller group. For instance, if you wish to perform a survey among members of a local organization or employees of a small business, the population size should be accurate within a dozen or so people.  Larger surveys allow for a greater deviance in the actual population. For example, if your demographic includes everyone living in the United States, you could estimate the size to roughly 320 million people, even though the actual value may vary by hundreds of thousands. Margin of error, also referred to as "confidence interval," refers to the amount of error you wish to allow in your results.  The margin of error is a percentage the indicates how close your sample results will be to the true value of the overall population discussed in your study. Smaller margin of errors will result in more accurate answers, but choosing a smaller margin of error will also require a larger sample. When the results of a survey are presented, the margin of error usually appears as a plus or minus percentage. For example: "35% of people agree with option A, with a margin of error of +/- 5%" In this example, the margin of error essentially indicates that, if the entire population were asked the same poll question, you are “confident” that somewhere between 30% (35 - 5) and 40% (35 + 5) would agree with option A. Confidence level is closely related to confidence interval (margin of error). This value measures your degree of certainty regarding how well a sample represents the overall population within your chosen margin of error.  In other words, choosing a confidence level of 95% allows you to claim that you 95% certain that your results accurately fall within your chosen margin of error. A larger confidence level indicates a greater degree of accuracy, but it will also require a larger sample. The most...

Porcelain dolls are extremely fragile and should be handled with great care. A porcelain doll that is a child's toy does not need to be handled with gloves. However, when a doll is a collectible or a decoration you should always wear white cotton gloves when you handle it. The oils on your skin can stain the doll's porcelain and clothing, as well as attract dust. When cleaning or dressing your doll lay it out on a towel, not directly on a table. This will protect your doll from getting any dirt or smudges on it. The towel also helps prevent breakage by adding another layer of protection for your fragile doll. If your doll is a collectible or you want it be extra safe, store it in its original box or a ventilated container. You can purchase doll display cases online that work well for this. However, if you smoke, store your doll in an airtight container to prevent stains. The doll should always be out of direct sunlight and be in room temperature, not extreme temperatures. Keep your doll somewhere not too close to a window to avoid high temperatures and harsh light from outside from damaging your doll. Carefully detangle your doll's hair with a hair detangling pick.

Then rinse it and apply the glazing agent with a clean rag, lightly coating the entire sink. Follow the instructions provided with the glaze before using the sink again. Porcelain polish is sometimes sold as tile polishing and made for porcelain tiles. Simply apply a few drops of oil to a clean rag and use it coat the sink. This will prevent stains from sticking to it as easily and make the sink smell great at all times. You won't need much.

Porcelain sinks are made by bonding porcelain to a cast-iron fixture, and they are incredibly durable when finished. As such, it is often worth the money to get a severely scratched or stained sink resurfaced, as this will protect it for many more years to come.

Porn is like all other movies: they do not reflect reality. Porn is shot and set up to look good on camera, but it usually doesn't reflect what actually feels good or what a real sexual encounter looks like. Try to go in with no expectations. Just let things go naturally. You want to enjoy every minute of the entire experience. It shouldn't be a "get-in-get-out" operation. Enjoy the whole sexual experience. Pay attention to your partner's erogenous zones and spend time pleasuring them. Slow down and explore your partner's whole body. Don't just go for the clichè parts.  You can also play games with one another to liven up the experience. Always focus on connection and keeping them guessing to make the sex interesting. Make a point to keep kissing. Returning for a sexy make-out every now and again can be a great way to draw out the experience. Before jumping right to the main event, spend some time kissing, caressing, and pleasing one another. Foreplay can make sex last longer and feel more sensual and romantic. Women especially find that foreplay is helpful in getting them in the right mood, whereas men may be more ready to go at any moment. It's in your best interest to get your lady in the mood. It will increase her natural lubrication and make her enjoy sex more. You should make sure that your partner never doubts for a moment that you think he or she is pretty much the hottest thing on the planet, maybe even the hottest thing for the next couple planets. When you see something you like, let your partner know. You don't always have to say it, but take time to enjoy it. Let your partner see you enjoying his or her body too. Personal lubrication products can significantly improve sexual satisfaction. Using quality lubricants is very important to good sex, especially if your partner is a woman or if you are having anal sex. Sexual interactions involve a lot of friction and, most of the time, friction is good. However, it also has its downsides, such as chafing and discomfort. You can buy lubricants at many...

Portion control is a key part of losing weight. Using bigger dishes can make you overindulge. Instead, eat your meals from smaller plates and bowls. A full, small plate tricks your brain into thinking you are getting a larger portion than if you have the same sized serving on a bigger plate. Invest in white plates, which can also trick you into eating less. Some dish sizes that can help you lose weight include:  8-inch salad plates 8-12 ounce soup/ salad bowls Tall, thin drinking glasses Small serving bowls and spoons 8-10 ounce mugs for hot beverages If you’re not using measuring cups to serve a specific portion size, you can also get serving utensils in pre-measured sizes. This can make serving the correct amount of food for weight loss easier. Keep in mind that in addition to serving spoons, you can also get gadgets such as ladles in specific sizes. A ½ cup ladle can help you easily figure out how many calories you’re getting in a serving without going overboard on portion size. For example, 2 ladles of split pea soup, which is 1 cup, has 180 calories in it. Some things you make may require weighing your food. Getting a kitchen scale can help you get portion sizes right and cut calories. It can also help you learn to eyeball portion sizes in restaurants. A digital kitchen scale is your best choice for getting the most accurate food weights. Recognize that a digital scale can help you avoid calorie creep. The difference between a 6 ounce and 7½ ounce potato is 30 calories. If you add this and other small amounts up over the course of the day, it could cut 500 or more calories.

Portion sizes are a very important part of an overall nutritious and balanced diet. If you're going out of the way to choose a nutritious grain, make sure you incorporate it into your diet in a healthy manner.  Choosing a more nutritious food, like a whole grain rice, is a great start to a healthy diet. However, if you eat larger portions of even these healthier foods, you may still be consuming too many calories for your body. Since grains are a carbohydrate rich group, it's important to measure the appropriate portion size. Make sure you're measuring the appropriate portion size of your whole grain rice. Go for 1/2 cup of cooked whole grain rice per serving.  In addition, you want to incorporate them in the right amounts. It's not a good idea to eat several servings of grains each day. Go for 2-3 servings of whole grains everyday. The rest of your day should be divided up with lean protein, fruits and vegetables. Although brown rice, wild rice or even sprouted rice are all wonderful sources of a variety of nutrients, you should consider trying some other whole grains as well.  One aspect that's important to a healthy diet is variety. Even if you eat nutritious foods each day, if you have a very limited and unvaried diet, you're missing out on the nutrients that are available from other foods.  In addition to whole grain rice, try other whole grain foods like: millet, farro, quinoa, teff, amaranth, oats or whole grain wheat. For example, you could have a bowl of whole grain oatmeal for breakfast, a sandwich made with whole wheat bread for lunch and serve your favorite chicken and vegetable stir fry with sprouted brown rice for dinner. Although there aren't too many different cooking methods for rice and other grains, it's still important to make sure that you're using healthy cooking techniques.  Although whole grain rice does come with many health benefits it wouldn't make sense to cook it with a lot of added fat, sugar or sodium. For basic cooking, boil rices in water or even low sodium or homemade broth....

Position a comfortable chair nearby and sit down immediately after picking up the baby.  This is a great way to practice getting in and out of position. Sitting down can also be advantageous anytime you want to hold or feed the baby.  A rocking chair or a comfortable armchair will do perfectly. Practicing the cradle hold in a comfy chair will help you gain some confidence. If the baby does start to wriggle out of your grasp, you can use your lap, or a cushion on your lap, to support the baby as you reposition your arms.  Using a chair and your lap for extra support will help free up your dominant hand for other activities. It can be useful when nursing the baby or adjusting their clothing, for instance. Once you're confident in your ability to cradle hold a baby while sitting down, you can try the position while standing up. It can help to use your dominant hand to provide extra support to the baby's midsection and bottom.  Try bending and straightening your knees to bounce the baby as you cradle hold them. Make sure your feet are spread slightly apart to give you enough support.  You can also try adding a side-to-side rocking motion to the cradle hold, to soothe a cranky baby or help them fall asleep. Later you can progress to walking while you hold the baby in the cradle hold position. For exceptionally wiggly or upset babies, you might find it easier to cradle hold the baby after swaddling them in a blanket. Swaddling not only helps to comfort the baby, it also helps you to balance their body more easily since they can't wriggle their arms and legs around. Whether you breastfeed or bottle feed the baby, the cradle hold can be an ideal position for nursing. Especially if you're using your lap and possibly a cushion for extra support, the cradle hold will free up your dominant hand so that you can hold the bottle or help the baby latch onto your breast. When breastfeeding the baby, rotate the baby so their chest faces yours. Tuck their arm beneath their body and use your elbow to lift their head to your breast.

Position the computer screen directly in front of the user so the body and neck do not have to twist to view. Ensure the screen rests at eye level so you do not have to tilt your head up or down to see the screen properly.  Keep your head level while using the computer to keep your spine straight. Avoid tucking your chin into your chest. If you have a desk job that requires you to sit for many hours a day, a chair with proper back support is a must. The lower back has an inward curve that straight-backed chairs do not account for. Sitting for extended amounts of time in a straight-backed chair can lead to back pain and muscle fatigue.  Purchase a chair with a curved back or one that has an adjustable lumbar support. You can make a DIY lumbar support by using a rolled up towel or pillow and placing at the base of your spine. Lumbar support add-ons can also be purchased for a marginal price if you don't want to buy a whole new chair. Though it has been in fashion to swap out your office chair to balance on an exercise ball while sitting at your desk, there is no added benefit in doing so. It will not give you a mini ab work out, nor will it help improve your posture. When sitting for a long time, you might be tempted to cross your legs or slouch. The best way to keep good posture at your desk is to keep both feet planted on the ground. Use a footrest, if necessary.  Keep your back straight against the chair. Keep your shoulders relaxed, but not rounded down or pulled backward. It's easy to get bogged down in work, but your posture will thank you by frequently moving a little bit. Set a timer on your desk and when it goes off stand up and stretch out. Walk to the break room to get some water, or go say hi to a work mate.  You don't have to go on an extended walk, just take a lap around the office. Avoid reclining the seat too far. Use a lumbar support at the curve of your back.

Position the cut squash in microwave-safe baking dish with the cut-sides facing down. Use a dish that is small enough to fit inside your microwave but large enough to fit both halves in a single, flat layer without any overlap. Pour about 1 inch (2.5 cm) of lukewarm water into the dish and around the spaghetti squash halves. Cook the squash on high until done.  If your microwave rotates, you do not need to turn the squash at all during the cooking process. If it doesn't rotate, pause the microwave after 6 minutes, turn the dish 180 degrees, and finish microwaving for the remaining 6 minutes. The squash is done when the exterior is soft enough to be pierced with a fork. Wait until the squash is cool to the touch before attempting to serve it.

Position the pan under the center of the grill. Make sure your drip pan is metal and safe to use for grilling. Put mounds of charcoal around the dripping pan and light them. Close the lid and wait until the grill reaches a temperature of 245 °F (118 °C) to 260 °F (127 °C). They can be dry or soaked, according to your grilling preference. If you want them soaked, put them in a bowl of water for 30 minutes and drain before using them. Toss them directly onto the charcoal. Use tongs to place the turkey legs on the grate directly over the drip pan. Keep the grill temperature between 245 °F (118 °C) and 260 °F (127 °C). Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the turkey legs. Smoke them until the thermometer registers 165 °F (74 °C). Check the wood chips occasionally to see if they’re still smoking. If they aren’t, toss another handful onto the charcoal. Put them on a plate for about 5 minutes before serving. Eat them before they get cold. Place any leftovers in an airtight container or wrap them tightly in plastic wrap or aluminium foil. Refrigerate them for 3-4 days, or freeze them for 2-3 months.

Position the razor blade so that it is almost flat against the surface. Then, press down slowly and move the edge of the blade against the painted area. Continue sliding the blade back and forth until the paint begins to separate and peel.  Be very careful handling a razor blade or you might cut yourself. Never place your fingers or hand in front of the blade. Check after each stroke to ensure that you are not scratching the surface with the blade. Get a medium-grade sandpaper and sand over the painted areas. Sand in small overlapping circles to get the most paint off. Apply gentle, but consistent pressure. If you are worried about damaging the wood, use an even finer grade paper and check for marks as you go along. Create a 50-50 white vinegar and water mixture. Place this mixture in the microwave and heat it until it is just warm. Then, wet down the edge of a rag and rub it against the painted glass area. Continue rubbing in circles until you see the paint start to peel up. Make sure to place the mixture into a microwave-safe container. Empty and rinse out an old glass jar. Pour about 2 inches (5.1 cm) of paint thinner into the jar. Then, when you are finished painting, set your brush inside the jar and move it around. Watch as the paint begins to fall off the bristles. Remove the brush and wipe it off with a junk towel.  When you are done cleaning your brushes, you can put a lid on the jar and use it again after another project. Sealed paint thinner will last for months. Make sure to purchase and use a thinner designed for enamel or oil-based paints. Purchase a heat gun at your local hardware or home improvement store. These guns work by sending hot air against a surface. Read the instructions that came with your gun and practice holding it before plugging it in. Then, plug it in and aim the hot air against the painted surface. Wait until the paint heats up and use a scraper to pull it away.  Be very careful when handling or using a heat gun, as you can burn yourself severely. Heat and peel the paint away...

Position yourself behind the cue ball. If you are a right-handed player, your right foot should be behind you, directly opposite where the cue stick is aiming at the cue ball. Your left foot will be in front of you and at a comfortable angle that helps you to maintain balance. Your front hand will create a "bridge" and provide your cue stick with balance as you drive through the shot. There are multiple ways to form a "bridge", and you will want to experiment until you find the one that works for you.   The “open bridge” or “V bridge”  rest the cue stick in the V formed by the bottom of your thumb and the top of your index finger. The "closed bridge" involves letting the cue rest on your middle finger and wrapping your index finger around it to form a closed loop that the cue slides through. It is important to have a firm but relaxed grip. After you are leaning against the table and your aiming hand is 6-8 inches away from the cue ball, the forearm of your shooting hand should be at about a 90 degree angle from your cue.  The cue stick will be positioned parallel to the direction of your back foot.

Position yourself in a location where there is not bright lighting. You will have a better chance of spotting the Big Dipper in an area not polluted with light.  You also should position yourself in a spot where the northern horizon is clear.  Wait until darkness falls. You aren't going to find the Big Dipper during the daytime. The best viewing time is between March and June and around 10 p.m. To find the Big Dipper, you need to look into the northern sky. Determine which direction is north using a magnetic compass or a map. Tilt your head back so that you are looking up at the sky at about a 60-degree angle.  During midsummer and autumn, the Big Dipper will be closer to the horizon, so don't look up quite so high. If you are located north of Little Rock, Arkansas, you should be able to see the Big Dipper all night at any hour and any day of the year.  If you live as far north as New York or further north, the Big Dipper should never sink below the horizon. In southern locations, it can be more difficult to see the full Big Dipper in the fall, when some of its stars may be obscured. The season matters here. If it's spring or summer, the Big Dipper will be higher in the sky. If it's fall or winter, the Big Dipper will be closer to the horizon.  The saying “spring up and fall down” will help you remember where to look for the Big Dipper. In the fall, the Big Dipper will rest on the horizon in evening. In the winter, the handle can appear to be dangling from the bowl. You will find the Big Dipper upside down in the spring and, in the summer, the bowl will lean toward the ground.

Positive reframing is all about discovering the positives in any situation, even failure. Look at the situation in which you feel you failed, and contemplate different ways of describing it. "Failure" is a subjective term. Instead of saying "I failed at finding work," say "I haven't found work yet" or "I've been looking for work longer than I had hoped." Do not attempt to whitewash your mistakes, but state them without judgment, and look for the best.  Another way to reframe the situation is to understand why your attempt was not successful, then use that information to try again. The only way anyone discovers what does work is by also finding out what does not work. Failure presents you with an opportunity to learn until you get it right. Consider all the athletes, scientists, and other successful people who have tried and failed, only to persevere until they achieved their goal. Michael Jordan was famously cut from his high school basketball team, only to work hard and become one of the greatest players of all-time. Try using humor to encourage yourself when you are down: "Well, I have not found a job yet, but I have gotten really good at writing cover letters." Seeing the humor in your situation helps you take a step back and see things in perspective. Humor is a key component of resilience: laughing kindly at yourself will help carry you through your greatest trials. With failure often comes the tendency to beat yourself up over it, even calling yourself names. Learn to identify some common negative thought patterns so you can diffuse them. These thoughts may include: all-or-nothing thinking ("I have to do it perfectly the first time or I might as well give up"); catastrophizing ("This is terrible. There's no way I can come back from this"); or negative self-labeling ("I'm a failure and a phony.").  When you notice these kinds of thoughts arise, question them. They are coming from an a negatively biased, critical place. Instead, ask yourself, "Is this really true?" Look for evidence for and against these...

Positivity is contagious. If you surround yourself with genuine, encouraging people, you'll have more self confidence. This can allow you to be more open to the kinds of opportunities that can lead to good luck and good fortune.  Seek out friends who look on the bright side of life. Make plans with the co-worker who always has nice things to say. Invite your friend Tina, who's known for her bright and sunny attitude, out for a cup of coffee. Call family members who tend to be more positive. If your brother has a gloomy outlook on life, do not phone him after a bad day. Instead, call up your mother who always sees the positive. It's very hard to be open to good fortune when you're surrounded by negative people. Negativity, like positivity, can be contagious. You may be unable to embrace new opportunities if you're surrounded by people with a defeatist attitude.  Learn to disengage with negativity. People who are chronically negative usually do not actually want help. They just want to continually complain. If a friend or family member is going on about a problem ceaselessly, do not try to offer solutions. Instead, say something like, "I'm sorry you feel that way, but I'm sure you'll figure it out." Then, end the conversation.  Limit your contact with draining people. You do not have to end a friendship or relationship completely. However, see that person less. Do not call, text, or interact with a negative person every day or every week. You'll end up getting dragged into their worldview, resulting in you missing chances for good luck. If you believe you're chronically unlucky, you may have an underlying psychological condition. Depression, for example, can often lead to a negative overall outlook about oneself and one's prospects. If you worry you suffer from depression or another mental health issue, see a therapist.  You can find a therapist by going through your insurance provider.

Possible options include aspirin, ibuprofen, and naproxen.  Anti-inflammatory medications like these reduce the swelling and ultimately relieve the pain. Before taking an over-the-counter medication, make sure that you are not on any prescription medications that could interact negatively with the drug. Moreover, you should also make sure that you do not have any medical conditions that prevent you from taking one or all of these drugs. For instance, someone with an ulcer should avoid taking aspirin. Note that over-the-counter medications only provide temporary relief.
