The more people you come into contact with, the higher possibility to engage in intelligent and informative conversations where you can gain additional knowledge. Since people enjoy informative yet casual conversations on interesting topics, we tend to retain this knowledge better.   Cultivate friendships with intelligent, educated, and experienced people. These friendships will produce stimulating conversations on a variety of topics exposing you to new ideas, perspectives, and understandings. Try to meet up for coffee or tea once a week and discuss anything new you learned or talk about current affairs. Although audiobooks are no substitution for reading, they do permit the listener to gain access to a wealth of general knowledge while performing other tasks like commuting to work or exercising. Audiobooks will also help to increase your vocabulary, a different way to process information, and the ability to achieve a higher level of understanding.   Audiobooks often include commentary by the author, providing you with additional insight to how ideas formed for the book or reasoning behind certain scenes. This information will not only expand your general knowledge on the content of the book but also the writing process and author’s thoughts. You can buy, rent, or borrow audiobooks from a host of places. Instead of listening to music everywhere you go, try to substitute a good audiobook from time to time in your daily commute or exercise time. Listening to professionals conducting the seminar or conference will provide you the general knowledge presented a topic. This is important because the presenter is speaking professionally about the methods, approaches, and experiences they encountered while formulating an analysis that took several years to conduct and yield results.   Although you attend a seminar or conference to listen to professional individuals, make sure you take notes. Listening will help you grasp the information while writing it down will help you to retain it. Listen for the main ideas of...

The more platforms you use, the more exposure you will get and the more connections you will make. Set up accounts on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and Snapchat.  You may have personal accounts set up already, but consider making separate accounts—like a Fan Page on Facebook—specifically for your artist profile. If you like to write, consider blogging. It’s a great way for your fans to get a more in-depth look of your journey. With over 1 billion site visits per month, having your own YouTube channel is an easy way to get yourself more exposure by reaching a global audience. Once you create your channel, share it with your family and friends and on your social media accounts. Ask everyone you know to support you by sharing your link as well. Visit a professional recording studio or make your own home studio to record a few of your best songs. You can put your demo on CDs, flash drives, or an online playlist. Give your demo to club DJs, local radio stations, and recording studios and labels. Sharing your music digitally will give people across the world access to stream, download, and purchase your music. You can even get paid royalties for it!  LANDR, CD Baby, Ditto Music, Record Union, Reverbnation, and iMusician are a few distributors you can look into. Each company has different terms of service and fees, so it’s important that you educate yourself about which service will be the best for you. Handing someone a business card has a different feel than just giving out your phone number. Plus, once someone puts your number in their phone, who’s to say they will remember who you are afterwards? A good business card will have your contact information as well as what you do, and will make you stand out as a prepared professional. You can design and make your own business cards at home or through a local or online print company.

The more potential applicants you reach, the greater the odds of finding excellent and committed teachers for your school. Many schools make the mistake of running a limited search, but you are much better off casting a wide net. In addition to the standard school and district job postings, consider:  online job boards that are specific to education, like School Spring and Education America online job boards that serve all career fields, like Indeed and Monster classified sections in local newspapers classified sections in nearby metropolitan newspapers job boards at local and regional colleges and universities, at least those that grant teaching degrees Job fairs attract large numbers of potential teachers, so make the most of them! Hold your own, and be sure to participate in existing local and regional job fairs for teachers. In general, teaching salaries tend to be low, so it’s important to let potential applicants know what else your school offers. Make sure your advertisements feature information about health insurance, salary supplements, and retirement benefits. The best teachers are often looking for a positive work environment and a school that values its educators. Offer examples of ways that your school and district support teachers, including mentorship programs, development opportunities, and a collaborative approach to learning. Determine which campuses in your area offer teacher preparation programs, and strive to develop a positive working relationship with those schools. It can take some time and effort to build this kind of relationship, but doing so will help you attract new teachers who are looking for their first jobs.  Have your current faculty and administrators participate in workshops and lectures on these campuses. Pair education majors with mentors from your school. Make sure to participate in the colleges’ and universities’ student teaching programs. Consider taking a more long-term approach to recruitment by encouraging teenagers to explore careers in education. These programs...

The more prepared you are for a debate, the better you'll do. If you really want to guarantee a win as much as possible, do your research. When you know a topic backwards and forwards and from all angles, you'll be much better prepared to counter any argument your opponent might dream up. It's especially important to know the most common arguments for and against both sides of the issue. When you know what your opponent is likely to emphasize, you'll be able to explain why that's wrong. Avoid making websites like Wikipedia your main source of information. It's a good place to start but you should fill in your facts from sources that are experts in whatever topic you're trying to cover. For example, if you're going to debate about economics, don't quote a Wikipedia fact. Quote Alberto Alesina, one of the economics professors at Harvard and co-editor of a major academic journal on the topic. Logical fallacies are when the line of reasoning that someone uses is wrong. Even though the conclusion might be right, the way of getting there is wrong. This can be used to shed doubt on their conclusion, making your argument look better. There are lots of different kinds of logical fallacies and you'll want to study each one individually in order to learn to recognize and counter it. By pointing out logical fallacies in your opponent's argument, you force them to either accept them and reduce the credibility of their argument, or use their precious time to try and argue that their argument isn't illogical.  One of the most common examples of a logical fallacy is called "ad hominem", and is about attacking the person making the argument rather than the argument itself. This is often seen in politics. Think of it like "this guy is a jerk" vs. "there is no evidence that this plan will work". Another common logical fallacy is called "black or white". This is when an argument is presented as having only two options, with the outcome they want being presented as the best one. This ignores middle ground and other routes, which...

The more sensitive the plant is to changes in heat, the less likely you will be able to grow other plants in the same section.  A cool house is a greenhouse designed to keep plants from freezing. It is ideal for temporary greenhouses. A hot house is a greenhouse designed to keep plants in tropical temperatures. You will need to choose what the temperature will be and keep it steady. It is not possible to create different zones in an open greenhouse. Ideally it should be supplied by hose water and cisterns. Slatted tables can be used in the meantime, since they will allow water to drain through the table and into the gravel. If possible, construct the beds to the primary gardener’s height to limit ergonomic problems.

The more stressed out you are, the harder it’ll be to get your work done. Don’t be angry with yourself. Move on and focus on what you’ve got to do instead. Guilt and regret are draining emotions. Wasting time yelling at yourself for not starting that 2,000-word essay two weeks ago will only make you extra tired and frustrated. It will also stress you out, likely making it impossible for you to finish your assignment at that time. Instead of thinking about the total number of hours you’re about to work for, just start. Tell yourself you’ve only got to do it for 15 minutes. This will deal with the intimidation factor, and you’ll likely spend much longer than 15 minutes on your task before you stop working again.  If 15 minutes still sounds too intimidating, do something for just 3 minutes.  Once you come up for air, take a two-minute break. Then start up on another set of 15 minutes of work. It can be overwhelming to think about finishing a whole essay or getting through an entire week’s worth of tasks. Instead of thinking about everything you have to do like one big obstacle, break it all down into tiny pieces. You’ll be able to get started on the smallest crumb and go forward from there.  For example, instead of thinking, “I need to finish this essay by 10 PM tonight,” tell yourself, “I’m going to make a short outline, fill that in, and then look for quotes.” Consider trying a specific technique like pomodoro, where breaks happen at planned intervals.  Avoid making a long, disorganized to-do list. This is just setting yourself up for failure. Instead, create subcategories like "Home," "Work," "Family," and "Fun" and just try to cross off a few entries from each list every day. Make yourself a plan in the morning and pick the hardest task first. You’ll be most energized in the morning once you’ve eaten breakfast and woken up fully.

The more time you have to practice your speech, the more prepared you'll feel, and as a result, the less nervous you'll feel.  One guideline for the amount of time to spend on preparing a speech is one to two hours for every minute you'll be speaking.  For example, you might want to devote 5 to 10 hours of prep time for a 5-minute speech.  Of course, that includes ALL of your preparation from start to finish; your rehearsal would be just a portion of that time. Leave yourself time to practice.   If you're given to procrastinating, you could find yourself with very little or no time to practice before you deliver your speech, which could leave you feeling unprepared and anxious. Whenever possible, give your speech in front of family members and friends.  If you want their feedback, give them specific guidelines for what you'd like them to comment on so that you don't feel overwhelmed by helpful notes.   Look at your audience.  Almost nothing does more to keep an audience engaged than eye contact from a speaker.  As you rehearse your speech, be sure to look at the family members or friends who've agreed to be your audience.  It takes a bit of practice to be able to look at your outline, script or note cards, capture a thought or two and then come up and deliver that information while looking at your audience.  It's yet another reason why rehearsal time is so important. If you don't have the opportunity to practice in front of people, be sure that when you do rehearse, that you say your speech aloud.  You don't want your speech day to be the first time you hear the words of your speech coming out of your mouth.  Plus, speaking out loud gives you a chance to double-check and correct any mispronunciations, practice articulating your words clearly and confirm the timing of your speech (We speak more quickly when we simply recite a speech in our heads). One thing rehearing your speech allows you to do is to make any necessary changes.  If it's running too long, you have to cut some material.  If it's too short or...

The more time you spend in your man's company, the less temptation he will have to be unfaithful. When looking for a partner, try to find someone who shares your interests. That way, you can spend quality time together doing something you both enjoy. Consider looking:  At the gym At a sporting event At a church or community event At school/college Do not be duped by a man who is already in a relationship who is cheating with you on someone else. When you are interested in entering a relationship, be sure to ask about his relationship status. He may try and hide the fact he is still married or that he has another girlfriend. Be upfront and ask if you two are exclusive. Look for red flags of a man already in a relationship. Watch for:  Him getting defensive or reluctant to show you where he lives. Not letting you use or see his phone. Leaving to take or make phone calls when you are out with him. Canceling plans unexpectedly. More than 35% of men polled reported that they give into the temptation to cheat while away on business trips. When looking for a man, avoid places where a lonely traveling man might hang out, like a hotel bar or restaurant. Alternatively, if you enter a relationship with a man who travels frequently, be wary of him cheating! Make sure you talk to him about your concerns. The old adage of “once a cheater, always a cheater” may be true. Studies have shown that men who have cheated, and not have faced serious consequences of their actions, are more likely to cheat again. If you know, or find out, that your man has cheated, consider looking elsewhere for a faithful relationship.  You can determine if he has cheated on his previous relationships by discreetly looking into his past. Ask mutual friends of his ex-girlfriends to see why they broke up. It's always a good idea to gather information before you get too serious into a relationship! It might save you a broken heart in the long run. This is a good way to observe how faithful he will be to you. Appreciating beauty is one thing, undressing...

The more you know, the more motivated you’re likely to feel. There are plenty of websites about the importance of good dental hygiene. Find reasons that are personally compelling to you. Here are some examples:  Brushing your teeth daily helps prevent cavities. Cavities can make eating painful, and are costly to get filled. A cavity that grows too big due to negligence can require a root canal, which costs an average of $900.  If a tooth gets so bad that it’s unable to be saved, it may need to be pulled. When a tooth is pulled, the teeth and jaw around that spot become weaker over time and the bone suffers resorption. Forces on your teeth will change and an entire series of problems will occur. If your teeth are sensitive to hot or cold, a toothpaste for sensitive teeth can help change that. These toothpastes contain minerals that help protect the nerves in the teeth and make them less sensitive. Brushing your teeth doesn’t just affect your mouth. Good dental hygiene has been linked to other benefits as well:  Poor dental hygiene can be linked to respiratory diseases, like pneumonia and COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease). These diseases can be quite serious, and good dental hygiene can help prevent them. Poor dental hygiene leads to gum disease, or gingivitis. Gingivitis has been linked with an increased risk of preterm birth in pregnant women. Periodontitis, which follows gingivitis, can be linked to heart disease and this creates a constant level of bacteria in the circulatory system. Oral bacteria have also been linked to knee arthritis and rheumatoid arthritis in a 2012 study. Taking care of your teeth also leads to a better-looking smile. Compare images of people with healthy teeth to those who’ve neglected their teeth. The difference is likely to be a great motivator.  Find strong visuals that will leave an impact on you. Some people may be missing teeth or have yellowed, cracked, or blackened teeth. Without daily brushing, your teeth could eventually look like this as well. Dentists have seen...

The more you open your mouth, the better the sound you'll produce. Your voice needs to be able to fill up your entire mouth as it reverberates, and lowering your tongue so it's not in the way will help you produce a stronger sound as well.  Relaxing -- not forcing -- your tongue down helps control the increase in air pressure happening in your mouth. Practice keeping your mouth open while singing and your tongue down until it becomes muscle memory. Placing your voice forward is all about the concentration of resonance—you want the sound that you produce to resonate in the front of your face. To do this, try keeping your tongue at the bottom of your front teeth when singing. This may sound like you're yelling or whining at first, but you'll be able to produce a richer sound with time and practice. Your chest voice produces more volume more comfortably than your head voice. Breathe deeply and summon your voice from your chest, practicing singing notes higher and higher as you get better at belting. Be careful not to go too far above or below the range you can comfortably sing. If you use up all of your breath while you're singing, your voice will start to fade or crack. The less air that escapes through your air passage, the better you'll be able to belt. Imagine that you're breathing through a thin straw as you're singing, which will help you control the amount of air you use.

While you are dead you can bring up your “Options” menu by pressing the Start, Option or Menu button on your controller or the Esc key on the PC version then choose “Change Loadout” and select from your preset loadouts. In the corner of the screen, the mini-map will show locations that indicate the positions of other players as well as provide a tactical view of the map you are playing on. The location of enemy players will change based on the sights of your team if they are able to see opposing players. This can be useful to flank other players by approaching them from a different path.  In tactical game modes, it will also show the location of domination points, flags or other targets that are important to the game mode. By taking advantage of the Sat COMs perk, you can instantly reveal the location of opposing players within a certain range. However the enemy team can also make use of perks such as the Wiretap to hijack your Sat COMs to work in their favor.

The more you read, the more you will be inspired to write. You will begin to naturally pick up rules of grammar and new writing styles. You will become more familiar with different styles, genres, and literary devices. By getting a sense of what sort of writing you like, you will begin to develop your own writing style. The more words you have access to, the better you will be able to communicate your ideas. With stronger vocabulary is, it will be easier for you to paraphrase the writing of others.  When you encounter a word you don’t know, look it up! Browse a dictionary or thesaurus for fun. Talk to others. The spoken word is a great source of new and exciting vocabulary. If you don’t understand the basic mechanics of sentences, you’ll always have trouble constructing them. When you maintain a grasp on the basics of grammar, your unique words can flow freely and be easily understood by your readers. Study some resources on grammar and style in order to fortify your knowledge.  A good resource is Strunk and White’s Elements of Style. Another great resources is Stephen King’s On Writing: A Memoir of the Craft. Literary devices, such as theme, symbolism, and dramatic irony, can be used to make your essay more interesting and to express a deeper message. Even academic essays can benefit from the use of appropriate literary devices.  Theme: A common thread or idea that is appears throughout a literary work. Symbolism: An object, character, or color that is used to represent an important idea or concept. Dramatic Irony: Irony that occurs when the meaning of the situation is understood by the audience but not by the characters. Try to write using a variety of locations and tools. For example, try using a notebook and pen at a coffee shop, or typing on your laptop at home. In fact, writing with a paper and pen will make you less likely to copy, and more likely to paraphrase.

The discovery of new interests will help you figure out what you want to do with your life.  There are endless experiences you can try. You can plant a garden, take trips around the world, read books, eat new foods, or learn a new language. Do as many new things as you can. Eventually, you will stumble across something that you love. Record anything you have ever wanted to do in your life that you think will make you happy. Once you have your list, put them in order from most desired to least, and start doing them one by one. Don't be afraid to strive for something that may take years to achieve. Time is of little consequence when you are working towards something you truly love. A vision board is a poster with pictures you paste to it of the things you want in your life. The idea is to surround yourself with the places you want to travel, things you want to do, jobs you want to have, or dreams you want to achieve, so your life can begin changing to match those images. By having a visual representation of the things you want, it can help put you in the right mindset to achieve them.

The most basic and common way to eat muesli is just as you would eat a bowl of cereal, adding about a half cup of your favorite milk to an equal helping of muesli in a bowl.  Instead of milk, try your favorite brand of plain yoghurt (or flavoured if your prefer extra sweetness) for probiotic benefits and a different flavor and texture. Try heating the milk, then letting the muesli soak for a few minutes in the hot milk to soften it slightly, making it a bit more like oatmeal. You can also pour cold milk over the cereal in a microwave safe bowl, then heat the whole mixture in the microwave. Like cereal, it's also great to snack on all by itself. Just snack on it like granola. If you want to lively up your bowl of muesli, try chopping up a quarter-cup or so of your favorite fresh fruit, or adding some frozen fruit for a cold treat. Any of the following work great with muesli:  Sliced banana Blueberries, blackberries, or raspberries Kiwi Strawberries (the seeds work especially well as they add an extra sour crunch) Pork Scratchings (ideal if you want a more savoury muesli) Diced apple Chopped pear Sliced mango Lychees work especially well as they add a crisp sour flavour, which can't be topped Pomegranate seeds Dried fruits or berries are often a component of some muesli recipes already, but if you want to add some extra or add some to a more plain muesli that you've made, all of the following work well:  Cranberries Apricot Goji berries Raisins or sultanas Currants One excellent method of changing up the texture of your muesli is to soak it overnight in milk, yoghurt, or another softener of your choice. Add equal parts of muesli and milk to a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, or a lid, and refrigerate overnight. This can turn the muesli into a cold porridge type mixture that many people really enjoy. Coconut milk makes for a great soaking mixture, adding gentle sweetness and subtle flavor to the muesli.

Although it doesn’t have to be blunt, you are looking for the response to your single sale only. To do  this, you close your sale with an offer for a discount or additional product at a reduced price. This will not only help to solidify your current sale, but possibly gain you additional sales as well. If your client seems interested in your product, remove their hesitation by offering a test period for your product. This could be a number of days or a sample of whatever it is you’re selling. If they get a chance to use it and find it has value for them, you’ve secured your sale and opened the possibility of more in the future. In this, you show that purchasing your product is the only good outcome. You show how not buying from you may be detrimental in the long run, or how similar product or services don’t have nearly as high of standing as yours does. Close by demonstrating how much your product or service costs on a daily basis. This number will likely be low and seem very reasonable to your client, inciting their interest in purchasing it from you. Show that by purchasing your product or service, your audience is particularly intelligent, logical, helpful, et cetera. This will give them a self-esteem boost, leaving you both on a high note.

The most basic and universal way to say "hello" in Spanish is hola (OH-lah). You also might use "buenos días" (boo-AY-nohs DEE-ahs) if you're speaking to the person during the day. In the afternoon, you can use "buenas tardes" (boo-AY-nahs TAHR-days) if you want to greet the person based on the time of day. After the sun goes down, switch to "buenas noches" (boo-AY-nahs NOH-chays). The easiest way to introduce yourself is to simply say "me llamo" (MAY YAH-moh) after your "hello." This phrase literally means "I'm called," but translates to "my name is." For example, you might say "¡Hola! Me llamo Maria" ("Hello! My name is Maria").  You can also say "mi nombre es," which literally means "my name is." If you want a briefer, more casual introduction, you can use the word "soy," which means "I am." For example, you might say "hola, soy Maria" ("Hello, I'm Maria"). After you've said "hello," ask the person how they're doing or how their day has been. The most common way to say "how are you?" in Spanish is "¿cómo estás?" (KOH-moh ehs-TAHS).  For example: "¡Hola! Me llamo Maria. ¿Cómo estás?" When you add this question, you've politely introduced yourself to the person and started a conversation. If you want to ask the person their name, you would say "¿Cómo se llama?" (COH-moh SAY YAH-mah). You can also use "¿y tú?" or "¿y usted?" For example, you say "¡Hola! Me llamo Maria. ¿Y usted?" The person responds "Hola, Maria. Me llamo José. ¿Cómo estás?" After the person tells you their name, use "¡Encantado!" (ehn-kahn-TAH-doh) or "¡Encantada!" (ehn-kahn-TAH-dah). The ending changes depending on your gender. This is a basic, casual way to say you are pleased to meet someone.  You can also say "mucho gusto" (MOO-choh GOO-stoh) to mean "nice to meet you." This phrase works especially well if the other person has introduced themselves first. For example, suppose someone said to you "¡Hola! Me llamo José. ¿Y tú?" You could respond "Mucho gusto, me llamo Maria." A more formal way to say "pleased to meet you" is "estoy...

The most basic conclusion is the summary closing, which is very similar to the paper's introduction.  Since this sort of conclusion is so basic, you must aim to synthesize the information rather than merely summarizing it. Instead of merely repeating things you already said, rephrase your thesis and supporting points in a way that ties them all together. By doing so, you make your research paper seem like a "complete thought" rather than a collection of random and vaguely related ideas. Tie your research paper together by directly linking your introduction with your conclusion. There are several ways to do this.  Ask a question in your introduction. In your conclusion, restate the question and provide a direct answer. Write an anecdote or story in your introduction but do not share the ending. Instead, write the conclusion to the anecdote in the conclusion of your paper. For example, if you wanted to get more creative and put a more humanistic spin on a paper on tuberculosis, you might start your introduction with a story about a person with the disease, and refer to that story in your conclusion. For example, you could say something like this before you re-state your thesis in your conclusion: "Patient X was unable to complete the treatment for tuberculosis due to severe side effects and unfortunately succumbed to the disease." Use the same concepts and images introduced in your introduction in your conclusion. The images may or may not appear at other points throughout the research paper. If your research paper presented multiple sides of an issue, use your conclusion to state a logical opinion formed by your evidence.  Include enough information about your topic to back the statement up but do not get too carried away with excess detail. If your research did not provide you with a clear-cut answer to a question posed in your thesis, do not be afraid to indicate as much. Restate your initial hypothesis and indicate whether you still believe it or if the research you performed has begun swaying your opinion....

The most basic foundation of biology is that all organisms are composed of some number of cells that are independent of each other, but function as a multicellular organism. The number of cells varies from single celled organisms to organisms with trillions of cells. Keep in mind that not all cells in an organism have to be identical to one another (e.g. brain cells and heart cells). Cells function by moving molecules and energy back and forth. There are a number a molecules that are key to life as we know it. You should have an understanding of these biologically significant molecules and what they do. This will make understanding biology much easier. For example, ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) is the energy storage molecule. It allows cells to store energy and use it later. No organism lives forever. Instead, organisms reproduce one generation after another. Their genetic information is passed down through DNA (Deoxyribonucleic Acid) to guide the development of their offspring. Traits that help an organism survive in its environment are favored and get reproduced more frequently, while other traits die off. This forms the basis for concepts such as inheritance and evolution, and is central to the biology field.

The most basic thing you can do to stay warm both inside and outside is to layer your clothing. Ask anyone who has lived in some of the colder parts of the world, like Alaska and Norway, and they’ll all tell you: wear layers. This lets you have one outfit for the day that adjusts easily for snowy weather outside, as well as switching over naturally to your toasty warm office. An example of an outfit would include stockings, jeans, a long sleeve shirt, a button-up shirt, a sweater and a coat. With all or a combination of these things on, you can easily adjust to a roaring hot classroom, an icy office, a neutral grocery store, and the freezing temperatures outside without any problem. Make sure your home is as insulated as it can be. You might want to switch out the insulation in your walls or ceiling. You can also do more basic things, like putting up thick curtains and blankets over windows.  Cellular shades are actually pretty effective at keeping cold air from escaping from a window and they're often cheaper than other curtain options. You can also further insulate windows and any glass doors with an insulating film, a plastic material that is clear and adheres to all kinds of glass. It is often easier and cheaper to focus on keeping one room warm than on keeping an entire apartment or house warm. Figure out a single room that your family can stick to during waking hours and seal it off from the rest of the house. Close the doors and keep them covered in blankets. Centralize your heaters and other applications to warm the room. This saves you from having to put a lot of effort in keeping rooms warm that you won't use very often. You'll want to keep an eye out for holes and gaps that will let cold air into your home or between rooms that have different levels of insulation. The most common example is the gap under doors, but you may also find that some windows let in a draft or that rooms above a basement have cold air coming up through the floor. Rolled up blankets and carpets can easily be used to plug...

The most basic thing you should do to impress people? Do something. Anything. Getting up off the couch is the most basic step. This is something that is really hard for people, and when they see you going to the gym, taking your girlfriend on exciting weekend dates, and traveling every summer, they'll be impressed. What's even better is if you pick up new skills, either for fun or for work. Whatever you do to get yourself up and actively living your life, get really good at that thing. Practice. Become a pro. This is incredibly impressive to people, even if your skill or passion is a bit niche. Of course, most people think they're working hard. If you're one of those, work harder. If you're of the opinion that you should get everything you want without really working hard at all, then we need to talk because that is a terrible way to go through life and it will not make people very impressed with you. People like someone with a strong work ethic. It makes you look more capable, even when you're not. Someone who is generous is also impressive to most people. Find ways to help others, especially by doing things like volunteering. You should also clearly be offering your help for the sake of helping, not for personal gain. This means helping even when you think no one is paying attention. Believe us, it'll come back around. If you want to impress someone with a trait you are proud of, you need to do it in a productive way. You don't want to seem like that mid-life crisis guy that thinks he's impressing people but really just gets pitied.  Show off your wealth. If you want to show off how much money you have, don't do it by buying a bunch of stuff you don't need. Instead, give money to charity or bunch lunch for the homeless guy outside your building every day. Show off your strength. If you want to show off how strong or manly you are, do it by protecting those that can't protect themselves. Show off your intelligence. If you want to show off how smart you are, do it by offering to help people with assignments,...

The most basic way of saying no without ruining anyone else's day is to clearly and plainly say “no,” followed by a brief, succinct reason why you said no. Contrary to popular belief, there's no need to lie or make up an excuse if you don't feel yours is good enough – remember, everyone has felt the same way you do right now. If you just don't feel like granting a request, that's all the excuse you need. No specific, concrete, or logical reason is required.  For example, if someone asks you on a date and you aren't interested, the right thing to do is to simply say “No; I'm sorry but I'm not interested in you in that way.” That's all the other person needs to know to understand he or she has no further chance. There's no need to make up excuses that will only string the other person along; there's no need to be insulting and rude to drive him or her away. Chances are, if your honest reason seems silly or practically nonexistent – for example, “I was really hoping to go home and take a nap;” “I just don't feel like it” – the other person will, in fact, understand completely. If he or she doesn't, just remember: managing his or her reaction isn't your responsibility. As long as you've been civil, that's all you can do. This is the technique you should try to use most often. Your honesty and forthrightness will actually improve your reputation over time, rather than damage it. If you've had trouble saying no to things like peer pressure in the past, you'll be amazed at how little it actually bothers most people when you simply tell them you won't go along with something because you aren't comfortable with it. Sometimes, you've got to say no for your own good, but that doesn't mean you aren't interested. For instance, let's say you work all weekend, but a friend has asked you to help her move into a new apartment on Saturday. If you'd like to participate but you can't, make another offer, with terms you can manage. Suggest spending less time helping out, or offer to do something else in a similar vein when you...

The most common cause of infant suffocation is choking. You need to assess the situation to determine if the airway is completely blocked or only partially blocked.  If the baby is coughing or gagging, the airway is partially blocked. Let the baby continue to cough, as this is the best way to dislodge the blockage. If the baby is not able to cough and begins to turn bright red or blue, the airway is completely blocked. You will need to perform back blows and chest compressions to dislodge the blockage. If your baby is ill, having an allergic reaction, or is suffocating because the airway is swollen, you can perform chest compressions and rescue breaths, but you will need to call local emergency services immediately. Position the baby so that she is face-up on one forearm. Cradle the back of his/her head with the hand of the same forearm. Place your other forearm over the baby's front and gently turn his/her over so that she is face-down, remaining sandwiched in between your arms the entire time.  Use your thumb and fingers to hold the jaw as you turn the baby. Lower your bottom arm onto your thigh. The baby's head should be lower than his/her chest. Note that back blows should only be delivered if the baby is still conscious. If the baby falls unconscious, skip the back blows and proceed straight to the chest compressions and rescue breaths. Use the heel of your dominant hand to deliver five gentle yet distinct back blows in between the baby's shoulder blades.  Continue to support the baby's neck and head by holding his jaw between your thumb and forefingers. Giving CPR to a baby is often walking a fine line between being effective and causing injury. However, a minor musculoskeletal injury is a small price to pay for saving a life. After delivering the gentle back blows, place your free hand on the back of the baby's head, resting your arm firmly along the baby's spine. Carefully turn the baby back over so she is face-up again.  Don't lift the baby's head as you turn his/her, as this can force the clog back...

The most common cause of muscle aches without fever is simple overexertion. You may have spent too long at the gym or pushed yourself too hard during your run. As a result, your muscles may feel sore due to lactic acid buildup in the muscles. The soreness will resolve on its own if you rest the affected muscles and allow them to heal. Just lay off the exercise until you feel better.  To prevent this type of muscle ache, exercise regularly so your body isn't shocked by exertion. Gradually work your way up to serious activity instead of rushing into it. Always stretch properly before and after workouts. Increase your electrolyte consumption during the recovery period. Muscle soreness can be caused by a deficiency of electrolytes like potassium or calcium. Drink sports drinks like Gatorade or Powerade to replenish the electrolytes you lost through exercise. Broken bones and torn ligaments need emergency care, but muscle strain or pain can be treated on your own. This type of muscle ache is often the result of trauma from a sports or exercise injury. Symptoms usually include pain and/or swelling of the injured area. You may have trouble moving the limb freely until the injury heals. These injuries are treated with the RICE method: Rest, Ice, Compress, and Elevate.  Rest the affected muscle as much as possible. Apply ice to the area to reduce swelling. The ice also numbs the nerve endings in the area, temporarily relieving pain. Apply ice packs for 15-20 minutes at a time. Compression both reduces swelling and helps stabilize the limb. This can be especially helpful if you injured your leg and are having trouble walking. Simply wrap the injured area snugly in an elastic bandage or trainer's tape. Elevating the affected area over your heart makes it harder to pump blood to it. This reduces swelling by relying on the force of gravity. Though it seems strange, the sedentary lifestyle of office work can cause painful muscle aches. Sitting in one place for long periods of time can cause lower back pain, poor...

The most common flu symptoms can be effectively treated with a medication you can pick up at your local drugstore. Ask your doctor or pharmacist to recommend a medication that is right for you especially if you have medical issues such as high blood pressure, liver, or kidney problems, take other medications, or are pregnant. Keep in mind these will only treat symptoms and are not antiviral drugs.  Flu aches and pains can be treated with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) like ibuprofen and aspirin, or a fever and pain reducer like Tylenol (acetaminophen). Be sure to check the package for the recommended dosage. Aspirin should not be given to children under 18. Take antihistamines and decongestants to treat congestion.  Take expectorants and cough suppressants to treat a cough. If your cough is dry and hacking, a cough suppressant that contains dextromethorphan is the best choice. However, if your cough is bringing up mucus, an expectorant containing guaifenesin is a better option to make your cough more productive.  Be careful to avoid acetaminophen overdose. Many medications contain the same active ingredients, so read labels carefully. Follow the dosing directions on the packaging and do not exceed the recommended dose. Use children’s acetaminophen or ibuprofen for children. Follow the directions on the packaging for the correct dose. You can alternate between acetaminophen and ibuprofen if your child’s fever does not respond to only one, but make sure you keep track of when you give each medication.  You can also consult the guidelines at MedlinePlus, which is run by the US National Library of Medicine. They have guidelines for ibuprofen and acetaminophen. Do not give ibuprofen to children who have been vomiting or are dehydrated.   Never give a child younger than 18 aspirin. It increases the risk of developing Reye syndrome. If you decide to go to the doctor to get help treating your illness, you may be prescribed one of the following medications, depending on what strains of the flu are...

The most common fungal skin infection is athlete's foot, the most common bacterial skin infection is staph, and the most common viral skin infections include herpes simplex (cold sores) and rashes accompanied by viral infections. Knowing the differences between the various types of infections can help you to know the causes of each and how to avoid them.  Fungal infections come from airborne organisms and typically start off in the lungs or skin. Athlete's foot, yeast infections, and ringworms are examples of common fungal infections. Athlete's foot is contagious and can be spread through contaminated floors, towels, and clothing. Bacteria is not always bad; in fact, bacteria is naturally found in the human body and less than 1% has the ability to make people sick. It is the "bad" strains of bacteria (such as Streptococcus or Staphylococcus) which causes skin infections like Cellulitis, Erysipelas and Impetigo. However, skin infections can also spread to your joints, bones, or blood. Additionally, you should be careful if anyone you know has MRSA, which is a resistant bacterial infection. Viral infections are caused by organisms that are small containers with genetic material within. They invade healthy cells, reproduce, and eventually kill the cell to make you sick. Common skin infections caused by viruses include chickenpox, cold sores, measles, and rubella. There are currently no vaccinations for cold sores, so be aware if you come across this infection. Those who are constantly around warm and moist conditions (such as athletes) are more susceptible to infections. Also, people with weakened immune systems (such as those with diabetes, cancer, or HIV) are more likely to have a skin infection.  Many athletes report infection because bacteria tends to thrive in warm and moist areas. Avoid infection by washing frequently, sanitizing shared spaces and equipment, and laundering uniforms after each use. For example, athlete's foot typically occurs as a result of your sweaty feet being confined in tight-fitting...

The most common mistake is to fill a car with diesel when it needs to run unleaded or filling a diesel vehicle with gasoline. The improper fuel can do serious damage to your engine, and can even total the car if you're not careful. Make sure you not only drain the fuel tank of the wrong fuel, but to flush out the fuel lines and replace the fuel filters. Fuel can, and will, go bad when it is just sitting in a tank. If you're thinking of dusting off the old car in the garage for a spin, make sure you drain and replace the gas to ensure that everything runs smoothly. This is equally important if you're trying to fix a car up or work on it's engine. The introduction of ethanol into the gas supply has greatly reduced the life-span of gasoline. It degrades much faster, meaning you need to be extra vigilant about draining the fuel if the car hasn't run in a long time. You can't proceed with the repair if there is still gas in the tank, so be sure to take you time draining it before beginning. You must also drain the gas to replace the fuel gauge sending unit.

The most common places for fungal infections to occur on the body are in warm, moist places where there is little light. Armpits, the groin area, and under the breasts are common areas for fungal growth.  The inframammary fold is the area under the breast. This area is well-suited for fungus to grow. The most common type of fungus that causes an infection under the breast is a yeast called candida. This is the same yeast, or candida, that causes vaginal infections and yeast infections in the mouth called thrush. There are no serious long-term consequences of a candida infection under the breast, other than a darkening of the skin which can be permanent, and the possibility that the condition will spread. The rash associated with a fungal infection under the breast can vary in appearance. The rash occurs in areas where the breast tissue folds against the skin of the upper stomach or chest area.  Most often the rash will be pink to red in color, itchy, have areas that are growing outward, and contain small bumps, especially along areas where there are hair follicles, such as under the arm. The rash is sometimes referred to as an intertrigo rash.  Intertrigo is an area of the skin that is inflamed, and occurs in places that are warm, moist, and where two skin areas press against each other. The rash associated with intertrigo can be caused by a fungus, bacteria, or prolonged exposure to moisture. There is usually an odor present. The odor is caused by persistent moisture and the breakdown of healthy skin tissue. Treating a fungal infection with associated intertrigo under the breasts can be accomplished by altering the environment that is promoting the growth of the fungus, and by using an antifungal medication prescribed by your doctor.  To alter the environment, take steps to avoid the skin folds pressing against one another and prevent the accumulation of moisture. Be sure you have a bra that fits well and prevents your breast tissue from resting against the skin of your upper stomach or chest area. If...

The most common spots of soreness you get while sleeping on the ground are joints like your tailbone, shoulder blades, and hips. Place a small pillow or folded towel wherever you feel uncomfortable. The additional cushioning often makes the difference between a good night’s sleep and an achy morning. Using extra cushioning is valuable when you’re used to sleeping on a mattress. Joint aches decrease the more you get accustomed to being on the floor. If you plan on sleeping on the floor more than once, take it slow. Set out a few layers of blankets to make your body feel like it’s on a mattress. Put down as much cushioning as you need to get through the night. To get more used to sleeping on the floor, remove some of the blankets every few nights. Eventually, you will be able to sleep on the floor with the bare minimum in cushioning. Get more accustomed to sleeping on the floor by gradually reducing your time on a mattress. Set an alarm for about 2 hours before you have to get up. Move to the floor when your alarm goes off. Most of the time, you will be so tired you fall asleep right away. It’s all about getting used to the experience. Sleeping on the floor feels different than sleeping on a soft mattress. Gradually spend more of the night on the floor to reduce the soreness. Practice is the only way to get more comfortable with sleeping on the floor. You most likely will feel uncomfortable or even sore at first. The pain goes away the more you practice.

The most common symptom in both men and women with gonorrhea is painful/burning urination. This sensation may disappear on its own, but is often painful enough to send men to the doctor. In both men and women, gonorrhea produces a yellowish-greenish, thick discharge from the genitals. It is a secretion produced by the bacteria itself. In women this secretion can also be accompanied by bleeding between periods. It is the body’s way of expelling the foreign agent. Any unusual vaginal discharge should be examined by a doctor. This could be a sign of Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID) — a common symptom of gonorrhea in women. If you have PID, you might also experience fevers greater than or equal to 101 Fahrenheit. 750,000 cases of PID are diagnosed annually. 10% of those with PID face infertility. In both men and women, gonorrhea can cause general inflammation of one’s genitals.  Women may experience swelling, redness, or soreness of the vulva (the opening of the vagina).  In men, gonorrhea can lead to swollen testicles and an inflamed prostate gland. In both women and men who practice anal sex, gonorrhea can produce anal discharge and painful bowel movements. Frequent and persistent diarrhea can accompany anal gonorrhea. See your doctor immediately, if you experience these symptoms. Gonococcal pharyngitis or gonorrhea of the mouth produces sore throat, discomfort while swallowing, general redness, and whitish/yellowish discharge. The symptoms are the same for men and women. People with oral gonorrhea usually do not transmit the disease to others, but it is possible through direct contact with the back of the mouth. Kissing does not normally transmit the disease. Contact between the pharynx and body parts/objects can lead to transmission. Most people with oral gonorrhea often mistake their condition for strep throat or the common cold. Only after visiting the doctor do they discover that they have oral gonorrhea.

The most common symptoms of OM include ear pain or ear tugging (if the child can't yet verbalize pain), fussiness, fever, and even vomiting. In addition, a child may eat or have trouble sleeping normally because lying down, chewing, and sucking can alter the pressure in the ear and cause pain. Adults will also experience pain, a sensation of pressure, and increase discomfort while lying down.  Given that the age group most commonly affected from ear infections and fluid ranges from three months to two years old, parents or primary caregivers will be required to give as much information and history as possible to the doctor on their children's behalf. Thus, it's important to keep track and careful record of any noted symptoms. If you notice any discharge of fluid, pus or bloody discharge, see a doctor immediately. " Ear infections are considered secondary infections that follow the "common cold", or the primary infection. You should expect to see a few days of nasal discharge or congestion, cough, sore throat, and a low fever, all typical symptoms that accompany colds. Most colds are due to viral infections and, given that there is no treatment for viral infections, there is usually no reason to seek medical attention. Only seek medical attention if the fever cannot reaches temperatures higher than 102°F (38.9°C). Keep track of all symptoms of the cold, as your doctor will want to know about the primary infection. The cold should last for a week. If you don't see improvement after a week, visit your doctor. The middle ear is normally filled with air which transmits sound waves. When the middle ear is filled with fluid during an infection sounds will be different or reduced. Some people complain that it sounds like listening to sounds under water. Signs that proper hearing may be impacted include:  Failure to respond to soft sounds or other noises The need to turn up the TV or radio to a louder volume Talking in an usually loud voice General inattentiveness Most ear infections don't cause long-term...

The most common test for the diagnosis of lactase deficiency is called a hydrogen breath test. This test is done at your doctor's office or an outpatient clinic, but typically after you've experimented with an elimination diet. The hydrogen breath test involves drinking a sweet liquid containing lots of lactose (25 grams). Your doctor then measures the amount of hydrogen gas in your breath at regular intervals (every 30 minutes). With people who can digest lactose, very little or no hydrogen is detected; however, for lactose intolerant people, the hydrogen reading is much higher because the sugar ferments in their colons via bacteria and produces the gas.  The hydrogen breath test is great way to identify lactose intolerance because it's highly reliable and very convenient. The test typically requires you to fast the night before and avoid smoking. Using too much lactose on some people can give false positives, as can bacterial overgrowth in their colons. The lactose tolerance test is a blood test used to gauge your body's reaction to consuming high levels of lactose (usually 50 grams). A fasting serum glucose is taken by your doctor as a baseline measurement and then compared to readings taken one to two hours after drinking the lactose beverage. If your blood glucose level doesn't increase by 20 g/dL above the baseline within that time frame, it means your body isn't properly digesting and/or absorbing lactose.  The blood glucose/lactose tolerance test is an older method of diagnosing lactose intolerance and not performed nearly as frequently as the hydrogen breath test, but it can also be helpful. The blood glucose/lactose tolerance test has a sensitivity of 75% and a specificity of 96%.  False-negative results occur with diabetes and bacterial overgrowth in the intestines. Undigested lactose creates lactic acid and other fatty acids in your colon, which end up in your feces. A stool acidity test, which is typically used on infants and young children, can detect these acids from a stool sample. The child...

The most common type of skin bacterial infections are staphylococcal.  Staphylococcal, or staph infections, are more common and live in your skin and mucous membranes. Sometimes, this bacteria is harmless; in fact, a significant proportion of the population is considered to be "colonized" with staph on their skin. However, certain strains of staph or inoculation with high amounts of staph can cause serious infection. Common staph infections include:  Ecthyma — Also known as “crusted ulcers.” This may be a deep form of impetigo, and is characterized by deep and crusted sores.   Hair follicle infections — This may include boils, abscesses, sycosis, folliculitis, or carbuncles. Skin infection wounds — These wounds include dermatitis and diabetic ulcers. Anyone can get a bacterial skin infection. Staph infections may occur if you have a cut or open wound that is not cleaned properly. You may pick up a staph infection if you come into contact with someone who already has one. A staph infection can occur anywhere on the body.  If you were recently in the hospital, you may have developed an infection in an injection or surgery site.  You may get an infection near a tube or catheter opening. Also check cracks on the feet and any sites where you may have been scratched. You will want to seek medical attention from your doctor or emergency room or urgent care if you think you have any of these illness. Staph infections usually need to be treated by a doctor, either with antibiotics, by draining an abscess, or both. Failure to do so may cause spread of the infection or even death.

The most common type of steamer is a basket made of stainless steel that fits into a 9 inches (23 cm) pot on the stove. The basket opens so you can place the eggplant inside and then folds closed to steam the vegetables.  Look for metal steamers at your local kitchen supply store or online. Most metal steamers are dishwasher safe, making them easy to clean and use. Bamboo steamers come in two pieces, a round bamboo bowl and a bamboo lid that fits snugly over the bowl. These steamers are great if you want to steam a lot of vegetables at once.  Look for bamboo steamers that are 10 to 12 inches (25 to 30 cm) in diameter at your local kitchen supply store or online. You can also use bamboo steamers to cook other items, such as meat or dumplings. If you don’t have access to a steamer, make one with a metal colander and a heat-safe plate or the lid of a pot. Make sure the lid or plate fits snugly over the colander. Do not use plastic items to make the steamer, as they may not hold up to the heat.

The most common way to cook bacon-wrapped scallops is to broil them.  Place the oven rack 6 inches from the source of heat.  Set the oven to broil and allow it to preheat. The basic recipe for bacon-wrapped scallops is very simple.  Toss the wrapped scallops in melted butter and sprinkle them with salt and pepper.  You can use olive oil in place of butter. Teriyaki sauce is a common variation to the simple butter recipe.  Combine 1/2 cup teriyaki sauce, 1/3 cup brown sugar, and 3 tablespoons of minced ginger in a bowl.  Toss the wrapped scallops in the mixture. Line the scallops on a baking sheet.  Place the baking sheet on the oven rack and allow the scallops to broil for 10-15 minutes until the bacon is cooked completely through. Flip the scallops half way through the cook time.  Remove the baking sheet using an oven mitt and flip the scallops using tongs, then replace the scallops and finish broiling them.

The most common way to eat canned tuna is by making a tuna salad. Typically, this consists of mixing canned tuna with mayonnaise and a variety of chopped vegetables, such as carrots, celery, cucumber, or tomato. Then add salt and pepper to taste. Tuna salad can be served on a sandwich or over a bed of greens. This creates a simple and tasty meal. Tuna casserole is a tasty and simple way to incorporate tuna into your diet. To make tuna casserole, you will need to combine canned tuna with noodles, cream of mushroom soup, peas, onions, and any other vegetables. Then bake the dish in the oven and finally sprinkle with cheese before serving. Canned tuna can also be used to make tuna patties that can then be served as burgers or eaten on their own with a bit of tartar sauce and lemon juice.

The most commonly used classes of OTC pain medications include Acetaminophen (Tylenol), and a class of drugs called "NSAIDs." NSAIDs stand for "nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs," and include medications such as Ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin), and Naproxen sodium (Aleve). Aspirin is also technically an NSAID, although it more frequently used in the prevention of heart attacks and strokes than it is in easing chronic pain.  OTC pain medications are generally safe to take in the short-term (meaning for less than 10 days at a time), as long as you adhere to the dosing instructions on the bottle and do not exceed them. It is generally okay to have 500–1000 mg of Acetaminophen (Tylenol) every four to six hours as needed. However, if you consume moderate to heavy alcohol, your usage needs to be less and you should either temporarily reduce your consumption of alcohol, or speak to your doctor about a dosage that is safe for you. It is generally okay to have 400–800 mg of Ibuprofen (such as Advil) every four to six hours as needed. Note that the dosage for OTC drugs is smaller in children, and specific instructions will be present on the bottle. If you need to use OTC meds for more than 10 days to manage your pain, it is always advisable to book an appointment with your doctor to discuss the risks and benefits of doing so. Your doctor can also diagnose any underlying conditions (the root cause of your pain) at this time, and possibly advise different treatment options that may be more useful for you (depending, of course, upon what specifically is causing your pain). The greatest risk associated with excessive Acetaminophen (Tylenol) use is the possibility of liver toxicity. NSAIDs such as Advil should not be taken without first consulting a doctor if you have problems with stomach ulcers, or are on a blood thinning medication such as Warfarin or Coumadin (as NSAIDs can increase your risk of bleeding).  Another risk of overusing OTC drugs is when people inadvertently overdose by continuing with the maximum dosage of...

The most direct way to find out if you have run-flat tires is to check your owner’s manual. If your car still has its original tires and they are run-flat, the owner’s manual will explain everything you need to know about your run-flat tires and the TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System). Run-flat tires started coming onto the new car market in the early 2000s. The newer your car is, the higher the chances are that it came with run-flat tires.  Specific car companies more commonly use run-flat tires on their new cars, especially BMW and Lexus. Toyota puts run flat-tires on some of their coupes and sedans. If you have one of these types of cars with original tires on it, it’s possible that you have run-flat tires. BMW cars are by far the most common car where you will find run-flat tires. If you have a newer BMW, chances are high that you have run-flat tires. A car with original run-flat tires on it will not come with a spare tire in the trunk. If your car comes with a tire repair kit in the trunk instead of a spare tire, it’s possible that you have run-flat tires. If you’re still not sure, ask the dealer or check in your owner’s manual to find out. Cars fitted with run-flat tires also have a Tire Pressure Monitoring System, which monitors the air pressure in the tires. If your air pressure is low, a light will come on that alerts you about the low pressure. Your owner’s manual will explain where to look for this warning and what to do if it lights up.

The most distinctive thing about Kevin Durant's shooting technique is that he doesn't square up to the basket to take a shot, he instead aligns himself by pointing his hip to the hole. Some analysts believe that squaring up this way can help to take tension away from the neck and shoulders, resulting in a more natural action, though it traditionally isn't the way shooting is taught. Likewise, Durant's feet aren't aimed at the hoop when he shoots, but turned to approximately 10 on the clock, if the basket is 12. Some other shooters, like Dirk Nowitzki, orient themselves to the basket similarly, lessening the torque on the neck and shoulders and throwing off defenders. Durant doesn't jump straight up in the air when he takes a shot. Instead, he sweeps his feet forward and sways his shoulders back, resulting in a high-arcing shot that he's learned to make incredibly accurate. It's not the most technically-perfect form for a shot from long-range, but it has yielded great shooting percentages for KD. . Unlike Reggie Miller and Kobe, who have strange off-kilter follow-throughs, Durant's shot itself is fairly straightforward and his technique is pure, other than his foot placement. He keeps his elbows in tight, puts his hand in the cookie jar during the follow through, and almost always makes his shot. Unlike flashier players like LeBron and Kobe, Kevin Durant's game is basically built around his jump shot, which he earns by making his way to space and passing the ball, not by using step-jukes and other methods of shaking the player. Unlike other tall ballers, Durant also hops on almost every shot, however close he is to the ball, using his good arcing from any distance.

The most evident symptom of a low-risk HPV infection is genital warts. These warts may appear as small raised bumps, flat lesions, or small protrusions from the skin. These warts tend to be grouped, and can show within days or weeks of infection.  In women, genital warts are most often seen on the vulva and labia, but may also occur around the anus, in the vagina, or on the cervix. Low-risk HPV strains may also lead to some lesions around the cervix, but generally speaking will not lead to cancerous cell development. High-risk HPV rarely has any associated symptoms unless it has progressed to an advanced stage of cancer. This is why it is important to get an annual pelvic exam from your OB-GYN, who may be able to detect problems before they advance to a cancerous or pre-cancerous level. Symptoms of advanced-stage HPV that may be causing cervical cancer include:  Irregular bleeding or spotting between periods or after sexual intercourse. Irregular menstrual cycles. Fatigue. Weight loss or loss of appetite. Back, leg, or pelvic pain. A single swollen leg. Vaginal discomfort. Odorous discharge from the vagina. High-risk HPV most commonly causes cervical cancer, but it has also been linked to cancer of the vulva, anus, and throat. These cancers can be detected early if you get regular medical examinations, which is why it is important to get regular screenings.  On exposed areas, such as the vulva or around the anus, swipe a flat palm over the area to check for lumps that may indicate genital warts. If you believe you have been exposed to HPV at any point, alert both your OB-GYN and your general practitioner, and ask them to screen you for any potential cancers associated with HPV.

The most important celebration of the Passover week is the seder, a festive meal, which is usually held on the first night of Passover. The seder plate plays a central role in the Passover celebration. It consists of six symbolic foods, plus three pieces of matzah which will be placed on a separate plate. The six symbolic foods are:  The Bitter Herbs. Traditionally this would be horseradish, but parsley, green onion, or celery can also be used. The Paste or Charoset. This is a sweet mixture which represents the mortar used by the slaves to build the pyramids of Egypt. It is usually a ground mixture of apples, nuts and wine. A variety of recipes can be found online. The Vegetable. This is a non-bitter, root vegetable such as a boiled potato. This represents the hard labor of the slaves. The Shankbone. This is a shankbone, usually lamb or goat, which symbolizes the sacrificial lamb of Passover. The Egg. A hard-boiled egg used to symbolize the offering made in the days of the Temple. The Lettuce. This is usually romaine, which like the bitter herbs symbolizes the bitterness of slavery. This is a book which will contain the necessary prayers, as well as the procedures and story of Passover for the seder. It is a useful guide for how to perform the seder properly.  You can find a copy of the Haggadah in English online. You can also listen to a recitation of “The Order of the Seder” online. This is a blessing said over wine in honor of Passover. Say the Kiddush blessing and then drink the first of four cups of wine. You can then pour the second cup of wine but do not drink it yet. Wash your hands without a blessing. This is to prepare for the eating of the Karpas. This is a vegetable, usually parsley. Dip the vegetable in the saltwater and eat it. The vegetable is a symbol of the humble origins of the Jewish people. The salt water is a symbol of the tears shed due to slavery. Break the middle of the three matzah on the table, known as "yachatz". Return the smaller part to the pile. The larger part will be returned...

The most important key to being a successful writer is being a good writer. Your skill as a writer is like a muscle—the more you exercise it the stronger it will become. Whether you’re working on a full-length feature film or a short scene for TV, try to write something every day. You may be determined to finish your full-length feature, but that shouldn’t stop you from working on other projects. Besides, if you find yourself at a dead end on a script, you may find it refreshing to write something completely different for a while. Not to mention, it’s a good idea to be able to discuss several projects if you happen to meet a producer or director—or someone who knows one. Research what kinds of scripts are being bought by production companies. Zombie films? Murder mystery TV shows? Read Hollywood Reporter or Variety to get a good idea. You want to stay true to what you know, but don’t be afraid to step out of your comfort zone and write scripts that people are currently interested in. At the same time, think outside the box of what is currently popular. It may be refreshing for a producer to come across an engaging and original script that goes against the grain of what they're used to seeing. All writers face the dreaded “writers block” at some point. If you’re feeling burnt out on whatever you’re working on, or you just can’t figure out what should happen next in a story, take a break. Go for a jog, take a nap, or meet up with friends. Turning your brain off for a while may actually help you find the inspiration you’re looking for. It’s never a bad idea to have multiple sets of eyes on your work. If you know people who are good writers themselves, or people who simply have a mind for great ideas, ask them to read your scripts. Tell them to be honest about what they think, and take their suggestions seriously.  Consider taking on a writing partner. You and your partner can either work on the same script and exchange ideas, or work on different scripts and regularly get feedback from one another....

The most important outcome is a relationship that survives the conversation. Keep this mindset throughout the conversation to help with awkwardness and to keep you on track.  A friend needs to know that your relationship is important to you and that you’re having this conversation because you care about his or her well being. "Your friendship means a lot to me, and I wanted to meet with you because I'm concerned about you." A co-worker or employee needs to hear that his or her work is valued and that his or her job isn’t at risk. "I'm glad to have you on our team, and I want our working relationship to continue to be successful." Be specific about the problem, as being vague in order to spare the person's feelings might lead to misunderstandings. Use as much respect, kindness, and compassion as you can, but present the issue clearly.   Keep your body language open to encourage your friend or colleague to trust that you want to help them. Avoid statements with generalizations like “You never” or “You always.” These phrases will put the person on the defensive, which will distract from the issue at hand and cause even more discomfort for both of you.   Use only “I” statements to explain your feelings rather than blaming your friend or co-worker. Focus on the reasons that good personal hygiene is important for your relationship, whether personal or professional.  Don’t use anyone else’s comments about the person’s hygiene as evidence of the problem, as this will just make the person feel more humiliated and isolated. It’s easier to discuss clothing, as most workplaces have a dress code, even if it’s business casual. These standards will help you explain your position. Friends may also be more receptive if you begin with more surface concerns.  You may need to explain the term “business casual,” or, in a more informal workplace, explain the difference between “casual” and “inappropriate” or “messy.” If finances are an issue and the person brings it up here, you can later offer some suggestions for shopping on a...

The most important part of being a captain is leading by example. Because you are the captain, your teammates will look up to you and follow your lead whether you want them to or not. No matter the situation, your teammates need to see you working as hard as you can to win the game; you are also the primary person who will either be rewarded for credit or criticised for the team's performance.  Some ways to show your effort include not jogging when you should be running, and never giving up on a play. If you slack off, or give less effort, that is a sign that they do not need to try as hard either. This is especially important if you are losing during a game. Don’t let the situation dictate your effort.  Let your teammates know that you will always give your best effort, even if you don’t win the game. It can be hard to keep that energy up while losing, and your teammates will need your example to help. On the field, you should treat your opponents with respect. After the game is over, be sure to shake their hands as well. No matter how contentious the game, congratulate them on a good contest. Let your teammates know it is okay and important to be respectful of the everyone playing.  Be respectful to fans. You can always lead your teammates in saluting or applauding the cheers of your own fans after the game. Ignore booing, taunts, or insults to show your teammates that those things shouldn’t affect their performance. Never shout back or make obscene gestures in response to negative fan comments. Talk to your teammates about sportsmanship as well. Ask them to describe what they think sportsmanship means, and how they are going to practice it during games. That way they will know and understand what you are doing, rather than you hoping they pick it up. It never hurts to remind them of the proper way to treat each other and their opponents. In many sports, captains are the only players allowed to talk to the referees. Don’t shout at the officials over calls you think they missed or got wrong. Remember that...

The most important part of keeping track of your finances is consistency. Regardless of which way you choose to log your transactions, you have to be able to refer back to them easily and reliably. Be sure to include important information like the date, amount spent or gained, and expense category with each entry. Also be sure to make your recording consistent. For example, you can record transactions as soon as they happen, every time you get home, or even once a week. Expense categories are an easy way to figure out what you spend the most money on. These categories may include things like housing, utilities, household expenses, groceries, health care, pets, personal expenses, and entertainment. These categories will of course vary from person to person and you can be as specific or general as you want with your categories. For example, you may simply want to record expenses as either need or wants. The important thing is that your categorizing is consistent between transactions. The absolute simplest way of tracking your finances is to write a record of each transaction in a notebook. By always carrying this notebook, you are able to know exactly where every dollar came from and went. At the end of each period (week or month), you can also transfer the information to a computer spreadsheet so that it is more accessible. You can organize this notebook in several different ways. For simplicity, you may simply choose to use the notebook for spending. Alternately, you can treat it more like a logbook and record both your income and your expenses and how they affect the balance of your checking account. Some people choose to use a notebook to track cash expenses only, combining it with debit and credit card expenses at the end of each month or week. It may be considered old-fashioned, but recording your transactions in a checkbook is still a simple and reliable way of tracking your finances. The recording process involves simply writing down the amount of the transaction, writing a description of the...
