Authentic logos are usually placed on the lens, arms, or inside the ear piece and use consistent size, font, and colors.  Any slight error or variation could indicate your sunglasses are fake.  Misspelled brand names (e.g. "Guci" instead of "Gucci" and logos are also an indication that the glasses may be fake.  Before you purchase sunglasses, go to the manufacturer website and look at the markings and logos.  This will help you when you make a purchase. Model number are consistent worldwide no matter whether you purchase the sunglasses online or in a store. Go the manufacturer website to verify the model number of the sunglasses.  The model number is usually found on the frames of the glasses.  Fake sunglasses may have model numbers that are not listed on the manufacturer website. Authentic sunglasses are usually sold by an authorized website, boutique, or store. Street vendors are most likely selling counterfeit items.  If the price is deeply discounted and sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Stay away from websites that do not take returns and offer no way (e.g. phone number, email address, etc.) for you to contact them.  China is hotbed for counterfeit production.  Be careful when purchasing items made in China. If you purchase from a website, check out the buyers rate and the sellers' reviews. A web site selling authentic sunglasses will often have a guarantee of authenticity. Your sunglasses should look and feel like they are well made. Words like "high quality," "cosmetic," "replica," "inspired by," are often used to when glasses are not authentic.  Take note if you see any of these words being used to describe the seller or the glasses.  In addition to the glasses being fake, they may shatter easily and not offer you UV protection. This guarantees that they will be authentic.

Authentic recipes call for white, long grain rice. It is possible to make horchata with different kinds of rice; just know that you will get a different flavor with different varieties of rice.  Indian Basmati rice is a white, long grain rice. Your horchata will have a more "rice-like" flavor, so you may want to add a little extra cinnamon to counter this effect.  Long grain brown rice will have a nutty flavor. It will not taste like authentic horchata, but it could be a tasty spin on this classic beverage.  If you can find Mexican cinnamon (Canela), this will lend a more authentic flavor to your horchata. Canela is slightly milder than American cinnamon. You can use a blender, coffee bean or grain mill to grind the rice. Try to get the rice to the consistency of a coarse polenta. This will allow the rice to better absorb the water and cinnamon.  You can try to blend the rice with a food processor, but the rice may just whirl around and not actually break up.  You can also grind the rice by hand using a metate, or corn grinding stone.  If you can't get the rice that fine, simply break it up as much as possible. Cover the mixture and allow it to come to room temperature. The longer you allow the mixture to soak, the more flavorful it will be. If you have the time, it is highly recommended that you give it 12 hours to soak. Don't refrigerate the mix. Let it sit out at room temperature. If you do not have a blender or food processor, you will need to soak the rice in water for two days, or until the water becomes milky. The horchata may be grittier with this method, so be sure you strain it well and mix it up before drinking. If you have a hand-held or burr mixer, you can mix the horchata right in the bowl. This may take between 1 and 4 minutes, depending on your blender. Try to get the mixture as smooth as you possibly can. Pour just a little at a time, and use a spoon or spatula to stir the mixture as it goes through.   If you have trouble straining the mixture because of a build up of rice gunk in the...

Autistic people communicate differently, but that does not make their communication inferior. Every person (including non-autistic people) has unique mannerisms, and there is no right or wrong in personal expression. You may have a fairly narrow view of what each specific behavior means. (For example, if you assume that lack of eye contact means inattention, you may think an autistic person is ignoring you when they're actually paying close attention.) Work on being open-minded and getting to know the individual. This may be new to you, and that's okay. Weird faces and flapping arms may seem unpredictable to you, but that does not mean the autistic person is dangerous, or that they're going to hurt you. Take a deep breath and relax. Because body language is complicated, and autistic people are diverse, there is no easy list or flowchart of body language logic. Look for contextual clues (environment, what is said, facial expressions) and use your judgment. It's okay to ask for clarifications about someone else's feelings, and it's certainly better than getting frustrated or confused. (Autistic people can understand the feeling of needing clarifications about feelings. As long as you're polite and respectful, it's totally normal.)   "I noticed you've been fidgeting a lot while we're talking. Is something up, or is this a normal part of listening for you?" "I noticed that you haven't been looking at me while we're talking. Is this a part of your listening body language?" "Are you sad, or just thinking?"

Automatic electric percolators operate according to the same physical principals as stove top percolators, but they generally require less work and supervision on your part. To begin, add your water and coffee as you normally would. Decide how much coffee you want, then add this amount of water to the bottom chamber. Remove the basket from the upper chamber and add your coffee grounds. The ratios for the amount of grounds you should use for your water is the same for electric percolators as it is for stove top percolators — use 1 tablespoon per cup of water for strong coffee and 1 teaspoon for weak coffee. Once your percolator is assembled and full of coffee and water, your work is basically done. Connect the percolator's plug to a nearby outlet. Most percolators will begin to heat automatically, but if yours has an "on" button, you may need to hit this at this point. Your percolator's internal heating element should activate and begin to heat the water in the bottom chamber, causing it to cycle up the tube, through the coffee grounds, and back down into the reservoir as it would in a standard percolator. All you need to do now is wait. Most electric percolators take about as long to finish brewing as stove top percolators — usually about seven to ten minutes. Many electric percolators will have an internal sensor that prevent them from heating the coffee past its optimal temperature, but if yours doesn't, you may need to watch the percolator as it brews. Otherwise, assuming there are no small children or pets in the area who may burn themselves on the hot machine, simply set a timer and let your percolator do the rest. Remember that if you ever see steam coming out of the percolator, it's brewing too hot. If you see this with an electric percolator, unplug immediately and allow it to cool for a minute or two before re-connecting it. When your timer goes off (or, if you have a percolator with an automatic timer, it shuts off automatically), unplug your percolator. Carefully open the lid and remove the upper...

Available for purchase at drugstores, these whitening products contain small amounts of peroxide to whiten your teeth. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for apply the strips or gels to your teeth. Rinses are used the same way you would use mouthwash. It usually take several applications before you see results.  Whitening strips and gels are not recommended for people with gum disease and other dental problems. Talk to your dentist before using these products if you're concerned.  Whitening strips and gels are best for people with a yellow tone to their teeth, and don't necessarily help remove darker stains. Tray whitening systems, also available at drugstores or from a dentist, use a slightly more aggressive approach to whitening teeth. A concentrated peroxide solution is poured into teeth trays, which look like plastic retainers, and the trays are worn over the teeth for several hours.  Tray whitening systems may also be used overnight. Depending on how white you want your teeth to be, you can continue using tray whitening systems every day for several weeks. Dentists may provide an at-home tray whitening kit. In some cases, the trays may be custom-made for your teeth using a mold so that they fit your teeth better than "one size fits all" trays. Many dentists offer whitening treatments that are very effective for removing dark stains. This is the most expensive technique, but it is also the quickest and offers the most dramatic results.  Lasers or heat are applied to the bleaching solution to make it work more quickly. Depending on the level of staining, repeated dentist visits may be necessary, but each session lasts only about 30 minutes.

Avoid anti-bacterial, scented, and other specialized soaps, since these may damage your plants. Dawn and castile soap are both great choices. Measure out both ingredients and pour them into a large bowl. Use either canola or vegetable cooking oil for best results. Stir the ingredients well to mix them thoroughly. Use a funnel to easily transfer the mixture into the spray bottle. Give the mixture another vigorous shake once you get it inside the bottle. If the section of the plant you test the spray on wilts or changes color, try using a different soap for this pesticide or another type of pesticide. If you tested your solution and it did not cause any harm to your plant, spray it around your entire plant, including the undersides of leaves. Focus on areas where pests lay their eggs, since an oil spray is designed to target eggs and immature bugs. Use the spray during the early morning or late afternoon, since direct sunlight could burn your plants after using oil.

Avoid attempting to keep sparkling wine for more than one to three days. Put it in the refrigerator and seal it to avoid losing its carbonation.  Get a stopper specifically made for storing sparkling wine, which will more securely seal the bottle. A regular cork will pop out due to carbonation.  Don’t use a vacuum pump on sparkling wine bottles, as it will suck out the carbonation of the wine. Some people enjoy day-old sparkling wine like champagne more than when it’s freshly opened, due to the slight decrease in carbonation and rounding out of flavors. However, don’t depend on the flavor remaining after more than 24 hours. Keep opened bottles of red wine, not just white wine, in a wine chiller or the fridge. Just allow leftover red wine to warm back to room temperature before serving.  Note that dark, rich reds like Cabernet Sauvignon and Petite Sirah will generally keep for longer than lighter red varieties like Pinot Noir. Aged wine older than eight to ten years, and organic or sulfite-free wines, are also more susceptible to going bad more quickly. Try keeping fortified wine, such as Marsala, Port, or Sherry, for much longer than any other type of wine. You can also buy bag-in-a-box style wine for longer storage.  Fortified wines can keep for longer due to the addition of brandy, or sugars in the case of dessert wines. Keep them for up to 28 days with a cork in the fridge. Keep boxed wine in the fridge and continue drinking from it for two to three weeks. Pay attention to and don’t drink beyond the given expiration date, as it is provided based on regulations for food stored in plastic.  Another method of keeping any wine for a very long time is to freeze it for use in cooking. Freeze wine into cubes or a block and keep it in the freezer in an airtight container for up to four to six months.

Avoid blaming the lingering smell on your smoker friend or a smokey place you visited. Don’t lie and say you just started trying it out if you’ve been smoking regularly for the past 6 months. Lying may only make your situation and eventual punishment worse. Once you’ve been caught, be honest and own up to it. Apologize for trying to deceive your parents and for breaking any specific household rules.  Be honest with your response: “Yes, you’re right, I have been smoking for a while now. I just thought it would be a cool thing to try, but I never thought it would get this out of hand, to the point where I’d be lying to you about it. I’m sorry, Dad.” Some ex-smokers are extremely sensitive to the smell of cigarettes. If your parents used to smoke, they may notice it even more quickly. Even if your parents are non-smokers, they will eventually find out. Non-smokers have healthier, more sensitive noses, so even if you can’t smell any traces of smoke, they probably can. Whether your parents notice the smell on your breath or they get word from a neighbor who spotted you smoking in public, they’re eventually going to find out your secret. If you confess to smoking before this happens, you might avoid getting into huge trouble or putting a strain on your relationship with your parents.   Trying to hide your smoking addiction through lying and other extreme measures show that you’re practicing really unhealthy behaviors. Considering this, and the significant health risks smoking poses, your parents are right to be concerned.  Don’t be surprised if your parents want to jump in and offer you support in quitting. If you’re not ready to getting help quitting just yet, it’s okay to say so, but don’t try to push them away. If and when your parents serve up a punishment, take a deep breath to calm your emotions and accept whatever punishment they give you. Don’t try to argue, lie, or negotiate your way out of it or act aggressively out of frustration. If possible, try to get ahead of the punishment. During your apology,...

Avoid generic titles like “Code of Ethics” or “Code of Values.” Go for a thematic title that is memorable and specific. For example, you may choose a title like “The Way We Conduct Ourselves at AB Communications” or “Living Our Values at AB Communications.” Format the code of ethics so it is easy to get from section to section. Put the titles of each section in the table of contents. For example, you may have a section title like, “Introduction” or “Prologue.” You may also have a section title like “Core Values” or “Our Living Values.” Start the code of ethics with an introduction or prologue that explains why the code is important and what the purpose of the code is. Address what the code is meant to accomplish. Note the scope of the code and who it applies to. Note in the introduction whether the code of ethics is mandatory for all employees. You should also note if the code is a regulatory document that is supposed to inform and manage the employees in ethical situations. Make a list of the core values and provide a brief summary of what the value means to the company. There is no set number of values needed for a code of ethics. You may have four to eight core values or one to five core values. For example, you may have a core value like “Professional integrity: We believe every employee should demonstrate integrity in ethical situations.” You can also mention why the core values are important, focusing on each value listed. Write one to two sentences about why you included in each value and how it connects to your company as a whole. For example, you may note, “Professional integrity is important to us as a company because we believe employees should act with consideration for others.” Most codes of ethics have an end section that lists resources for employees that they can refer to if they have an ethical dilemma or questions about ethics. You may list resources like a Human Resources representative or an ethics hotline.

Avoid getting angry with your parents. They have your best interest at heart, even if they are unhappy with your smoking. The important thing is for you to get their help to stop smoking.  Own up to your decisions. Remember that you made the initial choice to start smoking, even if it is now out of control. Your parents may point out – forcefully – that you made a bad choice. Instead of becoming defensive, admit that it was a poor decision, i.e. “Yes, it was a bad decision. I shouldn't have started in the first place.” Your mom and dad have a lot more life experience than you. Are they current or recovering smokers? Maybe they know what you're going through or can advise you on quitting. Don't be shy. Ask them.  Be clear that you want help. Say something like, “I know it's really unhealthy. That's why I'm asking if you can help me.” If you know that one of your parents smoked, ask them directly about the experience. Say, “Dad, I know that you quit smoking when I was little. How did you do it?” Make it clear that you are having trouble addressing the issue on your own and want their support. Consider surrendering your cigarettes as a goodwill gesture to your parents. Giving them up will signal that you're putting yourself in mom and dad's care. Make a plan of action with your parents so that you can get started with quitting. Take their advice, take their help, and do whatever it takes. They will want to pitch in and should make an effort to support you.  Pick a quitting day. Whether you are going cold turkey or need a quitting aid, set a clear day to begin. Talk to your doctor. With or without your parents, talk to a doctor about your habit. She will be able to advise you on how to quit, including the use of cessation products like nicotine patches, gum, or inhalers.  Ask for solidarity. The biggest role your parents can play in quitting is to support you, encourage you, and pick you up when you're down. You'll need them on your side. Quitting won't be easy.

Avoid going into too much detail about Christ’s death if your children are very young. You can best determine what’s age-appropriate for your child and their understanding. Focusing your lesson on Jesus’ ascension to heaven can keep things positive.  If your child is too young to understand death, you might say, “Jesus was punished even though he did nothing wrong, which was very sad. He put up with the punishment because he loved us. But the good news is, after his punishment he got to be with God, just like we will get to be with God some day.” For children over 5, you might opt for something direct but simple: "Jesus did die, and it was very sad. But it's okay because he came back to life." Then, talk over the details of the resurrection story. Tell your children that it's okay to cry or feel sad, especially on the days of Easter weekend where you talk a lot about the death of Jesus. Remind them that feeling sad when you read or hear about sad things is normal.   While there’s no need for your child to suppress their emotions, it’s okay to keep things positive. You might say, "It's okay to be sad, but remember that Jesus died so we don't have to deal with this kind of pain alone. God loves us and is always with us." Alternatively you could say, “When I feel overwhelmed reading about the story of Easter, I remember how much hope and joy there is in the story. Can you imagine how elated Mary was to find out her son was resurrected and with God?” End Easter on a positive note by reminding your kids that anything is possible through Jesus’ love for them. The next year, your children will be eager to celebrate the holiday and embrace its religious meaning in a new way. Keep your children engaged and interested in the meaning behind Easter by looking towards the future. You might say, “I loved teaching you more about the story of Jesus this year. How should we celebrate him on Easter next year?”

Avoid holding grudges or letting the argument spill over into a new day. Make a resolution together to end the conflict. Mutually agree to make up so that you can both begin to heal. Recognize that regardless of what the fight was about, you played a role in it. Be humble and admit where you went wrong. Leave out the “but” or “you should have” and focus on how you contributed to the fight.  For example, you may have snapped at your partner or talked over them when they needed you to listen. You can say, “I made assumptions without hearing you out first. I didn’t listen to you, and I admit that was wrong of me.” Fights often lead to anger and upset.  If you are angry, recognize that you are in control and that your partner does not “make” you angry. Take steps to help calm your anger, such as deep breathing. Think about what causes your anger and try and see the big picture. Journal your feelings to help you explore them and understand them better. For example, if you’re upset that your partner didn’t call you, write about your experience and how it made you feel. You might discover that your anger is really about feeling neglected or wanting more attention. If being right is more important than having a harmonious relationship, it’s probably time to soften and let go. Instead of focusing on why you are right, focus on understanding your partner’s perspective. Be curious about what they think and say and remember that your relationship is more important than being right.  For example, instead of saying, “I know I’m right and you’re wrong,” say, “I understand my viewpoint, but I don’t understand yours. Can you elaborate?” Remember that you are both on the same team. Neither partner in the relationship necessarily needs to accept full blame, and you should both work together to find a resolution. Express your understanding of what you did, then express your regret for doing it. Show empathy by acknowledging their emotions and how you impacting them.

Avoid making the escort or agency choose when you should meet up. They don’t know your schedule. Pick a time you feel safe meeting up and discuss it with the person you are talking to. If they can accommodate you, they will agree to the time.  For example, ask, “Can you meet me in the lobby of The Overlook at 8:00 PM tonight?” You may need to negotiate on the time frame a bit. The escort may not be available at your preferred time. They will suggest the closest time that works for them. If you can’t come to an agreement, you can set an appointment with someone else. Use your real name! Most escorts or agencies will try to research you online in order to verify that you are not a threat. You don’t have to use your home address, but you do need to pick a safe location to meet up. Give your real phone number in case the escort needs to get in touch with you.  A safe location can be your hotel room number, the hotel’s lobby, or a public place like a restaurant. The escort won’t agree to meet up unless they feel comfortable doing so. Make sure you also feel comfortable with the location you set. Be clear on your plans if the escort or agency asks for them. Most escorts rely on having a specific schedule. This schedule can be as elaborate as you want as long as you pay for enough time and the escort agrees to it. You might go out to dinner together or stay in and  talk over drinks, for instance.  For example, you might say, “We will be going to the restaurant at 8:30 PM.” Escorts need to know the time and place of a date for their own safety, so don’t take it personally. Since this is a business transaction, you should come to a pricing agreement before finalizing the arrangement. Ask the escort or agency for the price of a date if they don’t tell you themselves. Most will charge by the hour. Haggling is usually frowned upon, so avoid it as much as possible. Be clear about your schedule for the date so you can come to a price agreement. You may be forced to pay more if the date goes on longer than you anticipated.

Avoid placing pressure on the burn, and do not scrape the affected skin.  If the burn is on your arm, for instance, try to use your opposite arm and wear short-sleeved shirts.  If the burn is major, raise the burned area above the level of your heart.  This may require laying down and, for instance, propping a burned leg up with pillows. Ibuprofen or acetaminophen are over-the-counter medications that can help relieve pain and swelling.  Do not give aspirin to children younger than 12 years old. Apply lotion to the burn.  Aloe vera lotion or gel can provide pain relief and reduce swelling. Tetanus, also known as lockjaw, is a bacterial infection commonly associated with burns and can lead to painful muscular contractions in the jaw and neck.  Even minor burn injuries require a tetanus shot if you have not had one in the past ten years. If you still have pain with a minor burn after 48 hours, contact your doctor.

Avoid products that contain alcohol or benzoyl peroxide because these can dry your skin, similar to the way that these ingredients can dry out your hair.  It is very important to emphasize that once your pores are enlarged, they might not shrink back down entirely. Natural products can help to minimize their appearance but they aren't a miracle cure. Over the counter and prescription treatments are usually more effective, but they aren't all natural. Do a little research on the ingredients in these products to help you choose the best product for your skin. Toners get deep into the pores, cleaning out oil, dirt, and dead skin cells. Buildup of these products in your pores make them appear larger. If you have acne prone skin, toners may irritate your skin. You can buy a natural toner at many natural food stores, online retailers, and pharmacies. You can also make a natural toner or astringent. This is a quick and cheap do-it-yourself toner that you can use daily.  Mix one part apple cider vinegar and two parts water. Soak a cotton ball in this mixture and wipe it across your face, or you can use a small spray bottle. Put this toner on just after cleansing for best results. Don't worry, the vinegar smell will dissipate after a few minutes. Follow up with a light moisturizer to avoid dry skin. This method can be a little harsh for people with sensitive skin. If you find the vinegar a little bit harsh, try a different method for making a natural toner. Lemon juice is a natural astringent and very cost effective.  Squeeze 1/4 cup of lemon juice. Add ¾ cup of witch hazel. You can find this at natural food stores and herbal supply shops. Combine ingredients in a spray bottle and store in the refrigerator for up to a month. Results will vary per person, but you can expect this toner to clean pores to aid in reducing their appearance and brighten the tone of your skin.

Avoid purchasing skinny jeans that are too tight or else they could accentuate how skinny your legs are. Pants that are too baggy will also make you look smaller. Try on pants that fit tight but have a little bit of bagginess to them so you’re still comfortable. Wear pants in a variety of colors that you feel confident about. Make sure your shirts fit snug across your chest so they accentuate your body. Look for shirts labeled “slim fit” so they don’t hang loosely on your body or look baggy. These shirts will help bring out your upper body and flatter your form. Invest in a few henley shirts. They fit tight and help accentuate the male body. Blazers help emphasize your shoulders and give you a boxier form. Find one that doesn’t feel too tight when you cross your arms. Casual blazers can be worn with just a T-shirt underneath, or you can wear them on top of a button-up shirt for a fancier look. Blazers can help you look professional and stylish. Look for light grey or tan colored blazers for a clean, casual look Start with a light undershirt, then put on a button-up shirt. Avoid shirts with double front pockets, since these could look bulky and be uncomfortable. After the buttoned shirt, put a light sweater or cardigan on over it.  If you can, put a jacket or blazer over the sweater for an added layer. Wearing layers of clothes gives your body depth and makes you more fashionable. Invest in ankle boots so they bunch up the cuffs of your pants when you wear them. This adds to the illusion that your legs are a little bulkier and makes a unique fashion statement more eye-catching than tennis shoes.

Avoid rushing to the hospital once you start to feel contractions. Going to the hospital too early can make you more stressed out. Instead, stay home and time your contractions.  Download an App on your phone that times contractions for you so you do not have to do this yourself. If you feel any sharp pains or you start to bleed from your vagina, go to the hospital right away. If your water breaks while your contractions are still far apart, go to the hospital. Your baby may be at risk of infection. Applying heat to sensitive areas can help make your labor less painful, especially in the early stages. Put a hot compress on your lower back or your stomach for 10 minutes at a time to reduce any pain or irritation in these areas. If these areas are particularly sensitive, ask your partner to give you a massage. Massage can be a great way for you to stay calm and relaxed during labor. Walking and pacing around can help the baby get into position for the birth. Move around in your home or go for a walk in your neighborhood. Go to the grocery store and walk around to distract yourself and stay mobile. You can also sit on a large exercise ball and bounce around to stay active. Stay hydrated by sipping water often during early labor. Aim for light snacks that are high in carbohydrates, like seed crackers and whole wheat pasta and bread. These carbs will give you energy for when your labor really gets going. Avoid eating heavy or greasy food, as this can cause stomach upset and make your labor more difficult. Soak in a bath of warm water to help ease any soreness or pain. If the tub has jets, turn them on so you can get a relaxing massage while you soak. A warm shower, where you stand upright and lean against the shower wall, can also be good for easing pain and discomfort.

Avoid shampoo with sulfate. You can find sulfate-free shampoo in the natural section of the store. Choose shampoo for dry hair that will hydrate your strands. Shampoos with soy and milk have proteins in it that will help your straw textured hair be strong and smooth. Don’t use products that will make your hair dryer. Some products are actually more hurtful than they are helpful. Be careful that you aren’t using products that are damaging your hair. Avoid products with baking soda, sulfate, alcohol, and silicones. It is important to get conditioner without sulfate and harsh chemicals. Get regular conditioner to use every time you shower to help retain moisture. Use a deep conditioner weekly to repair damage that is inflicted on your hair. When you get out of the shower, use a leave in conditioner on your ends to prevent frizz and tangles. If your hair is very dry you can get a treatment at a salon to help bring it back to life. There are various types of salon treatments to revamp your hair. The Nanomax Hair Treatment is a brush that mists your hair, infusing it with proteins that lasts for five weeks. A conditioning treatment and vapor are applied to your hair, making your hair stronger. The Bhave Rescue Hair Treatment is a keratin treatment that does not straighten your hair, but it makes your hair smoother and stronger. This treatment is relatively inexpensive and should be done before you cut or dye your hair. There are many options for sealant products. Mousses and gels are great for controlling frizz but weigh your hair down and harden in your hair, causing the straw texture to worsen.  Choose products with oils in them such as argon oil, coconut oil, shea butter, and Moroccan oil. Try products with cranberries and acai berries in them because they have nutrients and vitamins that strengthen your hair. Put the products in wisely. Only put sealant product in your hair when it is wet. If you seal your hair when it is dry it will make your hair hard and heavy. Only put the product on your ends, if you put...

Avoid staring the cat in the eye or trying to reach for it when you first see it. These gestures can be perceived as threatening, especially for cats that are not used to being around people. Act calmly and quietly, and focus on getting the cat to trust you. If your stray cat is comfortable enough to let you be near it, pretend like you are ignoring it. Let it see you engaged in a non-threatening activity, such as reading or gardening. If you are lucky, the stray cat will observe you and learn that you are also not threatening. Once the stray cat is used to you leaving food for it to eat, you can also try scattering treats (such as tuna flakes or cubes of chicken) on the ground between you and the cat. If the cat comes near you, try holding a treat in your hand. The stray may feel comfortable to eat out of your hand, or it may not. In either case, do not attempt to pet or pick up the cat at first. Be patient; it takes time, sometimes weeks or more, for a stray or feral cat to begin to trust you. You can also try letting the cat lick a small amount of soft or wet food from your finger. Once the stray cat becomes  used to eating out of your hand, you can begin to try touching it. While feeding it a treat with one hand, calmly try to gently touch the cat with your other hand. If the cat acts startled and moves away, do not try to grab it. Wait a little while and try and try again. If the cat will not let you touch it at first, just try to bring your hand close to it. Repeat this technique over and over again, bringing your hand a little closer to the cat each time, until it lets you touch it. Some stray cats will respond more quickly to play that to being touched or held. If your stray cat does not seem to want to be touched, try playing with it using toy such as a laser pointer, wind-up mouse, or wand toy with feathers, ribbons, or other objects attached to it. If your cat plays with the toy, even if it won’t let you touch it or pick it up, it is a sign that it is growing accustomed to you. Stray and feral cats...

Avoid sugary cereals and snacks at breakfast, as these will just cause a sugar crash in a couple hours, and this is a sure way to fall asleep in class. Instead, choose a breakfast that has protein, carbohydrates, and calcium. This could include:  Fruit and toast with peanut butter Fruit and leafy green smoothies with dairy, soy, or almond milk Oatmeal with dried fruit and nuts Homemade breakfast burritos with beans, avocado, and greens Healthy homemade muffins Exercise gets your circulation pumping, increases the oxygen supply to your cells, releases good hormones, and promotes better sleep. Starting your day with a workout not only helps you get a better rest, but it will also energize you and prepare you for the day ahead. Good morning exercises include 30 minutes of:  Running and jogging Swimming Aerobics such as jumping jacks, skipping, or running in place Biking or using the stationary bike Sugar and caffeine both cause crashes, and when this happens at school, there's a good chance you'll fall asleep in class. Sugary foods include candy, sodas, chocolate bars, and even juices.  Caffeine in the form of black tea or coffee can be consumed in moderation as part of a healthy diet, but be sure to spread your consumption out over the day so you don’t crash.  Avoid energy drinks, which contain high amounts of sugar and caffeine, and can cause a big crash. Keep healthy snacks with you in case you get hungry throughout the day, and eat balanced meals at lunch and dinner as well. This will give you the fuel you need to stay awake throughout the day and in class. Make sure your meals contain:  Vitamins and minerals (fruits and vegetables) Calcium (dark leafy greens) Lean proteins (legumes, nuts, beans, or chicken) Good carbohydrates (whole-grain breads and pastas, or potatoes) Healthy fats (seeds, avocados, and nuts) Good snacks include plain crackers, crackers and cheese, vegetables and hummus, fruit, yogurt, and nuts, seeds, and dried fruit.

Avoid the oo as in   pronounced ; thus it is pronounced stewpid or commonly schewpid, not stoopid, etc. duty would be pronounced dewty or more often jooty. In the standard English accent, the A (for example, in father) is pronounced at the back of the mouth with an open throat—it sounds like "arh". This is the case in pretty much all British accents, but it's exaggerated in RP. In southern England and in RP, words such as "bath", "path", "glass", "grass" also use this vowel (barth, parth, glarss, grarss, etc.). However, in other parts of Britain "bath", "path", etc. sound like "ah".

Avoid the sugary, starchy, and acidic foods and drinks are those most likely to create the bacteria on your teeth that becomes acidic and attacks tooth enamel. This bacteria can cause the discoloration, sensitivity, and roughened teeth that are hallmarks of enamel loss. Your body can strengthen weak enamel itself if given the necessary nutrients and minerals. Dark leafy vegetables, dairy, and protein-rich foods contain necessary nutrients. Drink water rather than soda or fruit juice. Fluoride can be in the form of drinking fluoridated water (most drinking water in the U.S. contains fluoride). It could also be in fluoridated toothpaste or mouthwash.Brush your teeth properly with a soft-bristled toothbrush in a brisk circular motion for 2 minutes. The gum promotes saliva production, without the sugar that makes weakened enamel worse. Gum with the natural sweetener xylitol doesn't feed the bacteria that weakens your enamel, and xylitol has actually been shown to strengthen tooth enamel. Remineralizing gels with calcium phosphate and fluoride have been scientifically proven to help remineralize tooth enamel. Some dentists offer in-office remineralizing treatments or you can do it at home. You can brush remineralizing gel on your teeth if it comes in a pen or you can put it in teeth whitening trays and apply it to your teeth. This is the best way to cover all surfaces of your teeth.

Avoid tobacco products, and either cut out liquids like coffee, black tea, grape juice, colored sodas,  and red wine, or drink them through a straw. Curry can also stain your teeth, so eat it judiciously. Also, brush your teeth after you drink a beverage that can darken your teeth. Maintain your whitened teeth by using whitening toothpaste and whitening mouthwash. If you have consumed something acidic, wait about 30 minutes before brushing. Acidity can weaken your enamel, and brushing before it has a chance to harden can actually cause more damage. A professional cleaning will help you to keep your teeth white as well as preventing many common dental problems.

Avoid using a plain brown lunch sack for an adult goodie bag. Those are fine for kids, but for an adult you should use a higher quality bag that looks classy. Most craft stores have an enormous selection of gift bags in a broad range of sizes, colors and materials.  Select a sturdy bag made of quality materials and make sure the handles are secure. Choose a simple bag that is all one color so that you can easily customize it with creative embellishments. Have a good idea of what you want to put in your bag before making a purchase or doing any decorating. Consider the weight and size of the items so that your bag will be able to accommodate the goodies. You could use a basket, a decorative box, or any other receptacle that is clean and the right size for the goodies. You could get really creative and choose a vessel that ties in thematically with the goodies themselves or a vessel is actually part of the gift itself.  For example, if you want to fill the bag with cooking-related items for a chef, use a nice steel mixing bowl to hold the items instead of a bag. Doing this keeps the design elements consistent and the chef can actually use the steel mixing bowl later. Go green. Consider choosing a bag that is made with recycled materials or one that can be repurposed later, like a canvas bag. An easy way to maintain the perceived sophistication of the adult goodie bag is to keep all of the design elements consistent. This can be as simple as choosing a color theme for the gift and keeping that color consistent with the packaging, decorations and items inside the bag. For example, get a nice yellow bag and fill it with goodies that are yellow or packaged in yellow. Something as simple as that will make the gift appear visually cohesive and the overall effect will look sophisticated and high quality. Are you bringing it to a birthday party or giving it to the recipient one-on-one? Is it a gift for a co-worker that you are presenting at an office party? You can then tailor the bag to fit the event.  If you were...

Avoid using a round brush to dry your hair if you intend to straighten your hair. Trade your round brush for a paddle brush. This will guide the hair into a straighter position. Set the straight hair with the cool setting on your hair drying. Heat is helpful when you are styling hair. The cool setting on the hair dryer helps to keep that style for hours. Before you apply more heat to your hair with the hair straightener, spritz the strands with the heat protection spray. Make sure that you select a spray that you can use for both wet and dry hair.

Avoid using tap water when making a cleaning solution. Tap water often has minerals that can damage the monitor. Instead, use distilled water. Distilled water can be bought at most grocery outlets, or you can make your own. The two most popular cleaning agents for homemade solutions are isopropyl alcohol and white vinegar. Choice comes down to personal preference, as both are effective at removing tough grime. Avoid mixing the two though, stick with one or the other.  Do not use any cleaning agent that uses ammonia, such as window cleaners, as this can discolor your monitor. When using isopropyl alcohol, don’t use more than a 50/50 mix with distilled water. If you’re using vinegar, start with a 50/50 mix and add more vinegar if the solution isn’t strong enough. Vodka can work as a replacement for isopropyl alcohol.

Avoid walking around staring at your cell phone or listening to music. If someone is following you, it will be much easier if you aren't paying attention to what is going on around you. Look for non-descript or plain vehicles; spies don't usually go around in flashy cars. Alternatively, check for vehicles you know, that is belong to people you know who might have a reason to follow you.  If you are driving, slow down a little, and see if the car you think is following you does so as well. If you are on a highway, change lanes, and see if they follow. If someone is following you, it won't be in a flashy sports car. It will likely involve something non-descript, that can easily blend in without catching your attention. If you think you are being followed, take notice of distinguishing features like a license plate. There are many small cameras out there that are easy to miss. They can be hidden in tight spaces or in other objects, allowing someone to record you and your actions. Most cameras are small, so you'll want to be on the look out for smaller items that appear out of place, or loose wires that don't seem to run to anything.  You can use a smartphone to discover cameras. Turn off all the lights in the room you are in, then put your phone in camera mode. Look at the room through the camera. Night vision cameras will emit a bright red light (which is how they see in the dark), which will appear on your screen. If you see that, you have found a hidden camera. There are a number of hidden camera detectors available for purchase. They are small devices that produce a high-frequency red light, which you can use to sweep the room. The light will reflect off of any lenses, chips, or infrared lights. If you notice odd sounds on your phone, even after you've hung up, someone might be listening in to your conversations. Listening devices may also cause interference on electronic devices like televisions and radios. Hidden devices like cameras and recorders can use Wi-Fi networks to transmit what they find.

Avoid wearing clothing that doesn’t fit you properly, such as clothes that are too tight or too loose. Only wear items that fit you well and make you feel good. Look for clothing that flatters your body and wear more of those kinds of items.  For example, if you find that your body looks best when you wear high-waisted jeans and crop tops, wear more outfits that include these items. Consider getting rid of any items in your closet that don’t fit, are damaged, or that you don’t like. Don’t force yourself to wear high-heels or other shoe types that make you feel uncomfortable. Go with what you feel most comfortable wearing and what compliments your clothing.  Try wearing plain black or camel-colored ballet flats for a comfortable, dressy shoe option. Pair white sneakers with blue jeans and a T-shirt for an everyday, casual look. If you don’t have a bra, ask a trusted family member to take you shopping for one, such as your mom, an aunt, or an older sibling. Try on a few different styles and sizes to find what fits you best. A well-fitted bra should be snug around your chest, but not so tight that it feels uncomfortable.  Bras come in a wide range of styles, such as push-up, padded, sports, and triangle. If you go bra shopping in a lingerie store, a store associate can take your measurements to help you find your bra size. If you often find that your wardrobe is lacking in basic pieces, such as jeans, a coat, or a dress shirt, you may want to consider investing in a few quality pieces. Watch for sales and check thrift stores if you are on a limited budget. Choose items that fit you well and that you can wear over and over again. For example, a high-quality pair of jeans or winter coat is something that you can use for years.

Avoiding the unpleasant parts of work doesn’t make them go away. Break the seemingly unmanageable into manageable chunks, then sprinkle those less-enjoyable aspects of a task into that other stuff that you really like. Building up a huge hunk of the bad stuff to deal with all at once, after you’ve completed the enjoyable stuff, is just going to leave a sour taste in your mouth at the end of a project. Delaying gratification—“gratification” being whatever it is you’d rather do than the thing you’re procrastinating—has been shown to increase your productivity and enjoyment of the gratification itself. It can also lead to lower stress levels. Understand that the road to success will not be unending, continual joy. There will be difficulties, setbacks, and moments where you question your commitment. These will occur whether you’re on the right path or the wrong path, so understand that while it might be hard sometimes, you’ll need to make an effort to re-establish and embrace that positivity you felt at the outset of your endeavor. Positive mental attitude (occasionally abbreviated as “PMA”) is crucial for entrepreneurs. You’ll lose sight of your own goals and merits, and it can promote feelings of bitterness, jealousy, and inferiority. Competition is healthy, but focusing too much on others can lead you to internalize unhealthy attitudes. Along these same lines: praise your co-workers! When your colleagues, peers, or subordinates knock it out of the park, let them know. People and teams flourish this way. Failure always illuminates a truth about the methods you used, or the particular goals you pursued; interpret failure not as a badge of shame, but as a call for self-reflection. Sometimes it’s only through facing the insurmountable, failing, and then struggling to pull ourselves back together that we develop the tenacity we’ll need to succeed.  ”Failure,” as Henry Ford put it, “is simply the opportunity to begin again, this time more intelligently.”  Failure isn’t always indicative of having the wrong...

Axillary hyperhidrosis is the clinical name for excessive sweating, and various treatment options available, with consultation from your general practitioner. It's likely that you'll first be recommended specific aluminum-based topical treatments, but there are a variety of other more aggressive treatments available, if the situation is severe.  In some cases, an oral anticholinergic such as Rubinol will be recommended, which helps to curb sweating, particularly in the underarms. Talk to your doctor about onabotulinumtoxina injections. This treatment method is minimally invasive, and supposedly effective, offering an average efficacy rate of six-eight months. This type of electrotherapy involves, typically, two to four 20-minute sessions per week. Water is used to conduct a small electric current on your skin, which can help to reduce sweating for several weeks or months. While the treatment has mixed results and is somewhat uncomfortable, it's effective in about 70% of cases for armpits. This treatment uses a small endoscopic instrument that is inserted below the armpit to interrupt the sympathetic nerves that cause you to sweat. This treatment is effective, but risky, with side effects that include complications in breathing, nerve damage and/or causing other parts of your body to sweat excessively. Theoretically, Botox injections can and have been used to control underarm sweat for up to six months, with success reported among many people. You may only wish to consider it if you have a problem with severe underarm sweating, though, as treatments can run from $700, and they can be very painful. There's no proven medical link between Botox and sweating, and it's not generally recommended to seek this as treatment by the medical community. Still, it's used by some.

Babies as young as 9 months know when something's amiss.  For instance, if you put a pan on your head, your kid will realize something's wrong and will likely find it funny. Try funny faces. Pull funny faces by making your eyes wider and pulling out your lips or sticking out your tongue. Your kid will find it silly and funny.  Babies that are 6 months will find this especially hilarious because they think anything silly or out of the ordinary is funny. Try different noises to see what your baby finds funny.  If you want your baby to keep laughing, change your facial expression to something else. Laugh in response. You can do things such as dancing, clapping, or other gestures to make your baby laugh.   Use a hand puppet. Making a hand puppet dance and sing for your baby will make him giggle.  Making funny hand gestures isn't usual, and your baby will notice. It's funny because your baby doesn't expect it to happen. Babies love unusual sounds. They will get your baby's attention.  Sing a song. Any song that has hand or body gestures will make your baby giggle. Try the "Itsy-Bitsy Spider" or even the "Hokey Pokey."  Play a funny sound. Kids like sounds that are odd or silly, such as farting noises. You may have to try different noises to see what your baby finds funny.

Babies come in all shapes and sizes, and they all grow at completely different paces. Some infants skip the newborn size altogether, and some outgrow their clothes faster than others. Moreover, you may receive an excessive amount of clothes in one size, only to find that your baby cannot cycle through all those clothes before outgrowing them. You might be able to exchange clothes that your baby never wore for clothes in larger sizes. Keep tags on gifted clothes until they are used and ask gift-givers for a gift-receipt when they give you baby clothes. Resale shops specialize in buying items that are in good condition and selling them to others at lower-than-new prices. Many of these stores will give you the option of selling for either cash or store credit, and store credit is often a higher amount than you might receive in cash. You can drop your baby’s old, outgrown clothes off and pick some new clothes up for free. In recent years, several national chain shops have opened that focus their efforts on reselling children's clothes and other kids' items. Look online to find your local branches of these national chains, as well as independent shops that specialize in children's resale. Online swap communities allow you to exchange items you have for items you need. Oftentimes, you have to worry about shipping and receiving those items without a third party stepping in, but many swap communities give you the option of searching for exchanges in your local area so that you can make the swap in person. There are many swap sites specifically for baby clothing and items. Some of the best swap sites for baby items include:  MoxieJean.com (newborn to size 8) ThredUP.com (kids, juniors, and women) FlipSize.com (newborn to size 8, plus kids' shoes up to size 3) SwapMamas.com (clothing and goods)

Babies have different requirements for sleeping and eating depending on how old they are. Learning about the sleep cycles of babies can help you more effectively get your baby to sleep without nursing.  Babies generally do not require nighttime feedings once they weigh 11 pounds.  Newborns need to eat more often and generally sleep for up to three hours in between feedings. This means you may need to wake your baby to feed him until he is old or weighs enough to sleep without eating. Between two to three months and depending on weight, your baby may need an additional feeding at night. Most two to three months old babies need one to two feedings at night. They usually need to feed by five to six hours.   After four months, most healthy babies do not metabolically require feedings during the night and can usually sleep for seven to eight hours without a feeding.  Talk to your doctor if you have any questions about what is feasible. At around three months, reduce the number of nighttime feedings you give your baby. This can ultimately help reinforce the baby falling asleep without nursing. If your baby cries, either allow her to stir to see if she goes back to sleep or give her a pacifier, which may soothe her right back to sleep without feeding. Giving your baby a few sips of milk before you go to sleep may keep him from waking during the night. Wake him up and let him take a few sips, even if he is too tired to drink.  The extra sips may have the added benefit of getting you a little more sleep.  Be aware that this tactic can backfire and stimulate your baby to wake more often. If this happens, discontinue filling him up at your bedtime and give her a little extra at his last feeding. Once your baby no longer needs to be fed every two to three hours (usually around three to four months old), stretch out the time in between her feedings. This can help her realize that she doesn’t need to nurse to sleep. Add ½ hour between feedings at night every other night. After a few weeks, your baby may no longer need to...

Babies, especially young babies, don't need to bath everyday.  Before you decide to bathe your baby, take a few minutes to determine if they need a bath that day.  Keep some of the following ideas in mind when deciding if you need to bathe your baby:  Babies under two to three weeks old should only have sponge baths. You can give a tub bath once the umbilical cord has fallen off and the stump has healed. It's okay to bathe your baby only two or three times a week. Bathing your baby too often can cause dry skin problems. There are many different types of bathtubs that are made especially for babies.  These tubs all have different shapes and safety mechanisms in mind that will help make bath-time safe and enjoyable for your child.  Review the following styles of baby bath tubs to find one that is right for you:  There are stand-alone plastic tubs that are designed for babies. These tubs may have a textured bottom that will grip most surfaces to hold the tub in place. Other baby baths may use a kind of sling or hammock that holds the baby over the tub while you bathe them. You can purchase a plastic basin or inflatable tub to use inside a larger bathtub. After you have a baby bathtub selected you will need to make sure it is used in a safe place.  Ideally you will place the bathtub low to the ground and on a stable and sturdy surface.  Make sure the tub will not move during the bath and that it will safely contain both water and your baby.  Don't place the tub near any edges or areas where it could fall from. Make sure the surface under the tub is safe and won't allow the tub to shift during the bath. Place the tub in a place that lets you have full control over your baby during bath-time. It can be a good idea to fully prepare for your baby's bath before you start.  Doing this will allow you to focus on the task, make it easier on both of you, and help make bath time safe and easy.  Take a look at the following list to make sure you have the basics covered:  Baby soap or shampoo if you are going to use it. Your...

Baby turtles require lots of food to grow. Give them all the food they want and dispose of leftovers. They also take a lot of time to eat. Give them 30 minutes to several hours. Aquatic turtles must be in water to swallow. This will help keep their tank clean of food debris. If you feed your turtle in its tank, you will need to do your best to scoop out the food debris afterwards.  Add just enough water to cover the turtle. Use water from the tank so it is the same temperature and does not shock the turtle. Give them 30 minutes to several hours to eat. Pat the turtle dry when returning it to the main tank in order to remove any food debris. While turtle food contains all the necessary nutrients for your baby turtles, a well-balanced, varied diet is the best way to ensure your turtles are healthy. In addition, it may be hard to get your hatchling to eat at all, so provide variety until you find something he will eat. Foods appropriate for hatchlings include:  Flake and pellet foods – You can find varieties specifically for baby turtles at your pet store. They have all the necessary vitamins and nutrients for your baby turtle. Turtle sticks – Good for baby and adult turtles. Live blackworms, crickets, and mealworms (especially good, as baby turtles are attracted to movement) Once your baby turtle is a few months old, you can expand the variety of his diet. Check here for the appropriate foods for your species of turtle. In addition to the turtle food and live insects above, appropriate foods typically include:  Waxworms and small roaches Small fish or shrimp Cooked eggs with shells Fruit (halved grapes, apple, melon, strawberries) Vegetables (kale, spinach, romaine, but no iceberg lettuce or cabbage) They will live off the yolk from their eggs. Offer them food, but do not be overly worried if they do not eat. Turtles will not eat or digest their food if they are too cold. Use a water heater to bring the water to the correct temperature for your turtle. Many turtle will not eat if watched. If your turtle is not...

Backcombing involves teasing your hair with a brush or fine toothed comb in order to create volume. Often associated with the "beehive" look, backcombing is a great option for making your hair stand up with little-to-no hair products. You can incorporate volume into short hairstyles by using your fingers to sculpt your hair upwards. Add a dime-sized or nickel-sized amount of product into your hands, depending upon your hair length. Then slowly comb your fingers through your hair from the roots to the tips. Comb and tease your fingers upwards in order to make your hair stand up.  For a wet look, opt for a gel. For a dry finish, use a matte product. This technique works best on slightly dirty hair, as natural hair oils will help your hair hold its shape. Try fingerpicking your hair the day or two after you've washed it. If your hair is very curly, you can create volume and make your hair stand up by using a hair pick. Start with the pick positioned directly against your hair roots, and brush about 1 inch (2.5 cm) out in order to build subtle volume throughout your hair.

Backing up a hard drive can take more time than a laptop battery has charge. If you plug it in, you won't need to worry about how much battery life you have. Before installing your new hard drive, copy the contents of your laptop's current hard drive to the new one. This will save some time, because you won't have to reinstall all of your applications.   On Windows 8, System Image Backup is the program you can use to backup your hard drive. On Windows 7 and earlier, it's called Backup and Restore.  On Mac OS X 10.5 or newer, you can use Time Machine to back up your hard drive. You can also use the Disk Utility to back up your hard drive to CD or DVD. If you want to start fresh with your new hard drive, don't backup to the new hard drive. Install your operating system, and then install and copy over any files that you need. You will need a SATA-to-USB adapter to connect the two hard drives. You can also put the new hard drive into an external hard drive case which will have a USB connection. Some hard drive manufacturers include their own cloning software, which may already be on your computer. You can also use a third-party application.   Clonezilla is a multi-platform, free, open source disk cloning utility.  There is a large number of cloning software for all of the major operating systems. Before cloning the hard drive, be sure to read the help files to make sure you understand the process. The cloning software will check to make sure the new hard drive is large enough to clone the old hard drive to it. Be sure to unplug and turn off the new hard drive too. Wait at least one minute for the electricity in the laptop to dissipate before continuing. If the battery is in the laptop, it can give you an electric shock. You may also need to remove it to reach the laptop's hard drive. As noted above, you may be able to reach the hard drive through the battery compartment. On other laptops, you may have to take off the entire outer case or detach the keyboard. A few laptops offer direct access to the hard drive...

Backpacks can shift your child’s center of gravity, so they’ll need to be good walkers before they start wearing one. If your toddler still stumbles regularly and has trouble carrying things while walking, they may not be ready to carry a backpack. Some preschools and daycares don’t allow wheeled bags, large backpacks, or bags with characters on them. Check with the school before shopping to avoid having to make a return. A toddler should not be carrying more than ten percent of their body weight in a backpack. For a 30-pound (14 kg) child, that means a 3 lb (1.3 kg) load, including the actual backpack. If your child has too many things to carry in their backpack, get them a lunchbox, gym bag, or other item to carry in their hands. Your child will outgrow their backpack quickly, so spending less than what you would on an older child’s bag is a good idea. Set a price limit before you go shopping. Buy your toddler’s backpack in person, not online. You’ll need to make sure that the backpack fits your toddler and that they can walk comfortably with it, so make plans to take your preschooler with you to the store. Check several different stores in your area to find the best deal on a backpack. Most stores offer coupons or sales advertisements on their website or app, or in newspaper inserts.

Bacteria are single-celled microorganisms that can live under extreme conditions. Some bacteria have been found in the hot springs in Yellowstone National park where the water is near boiling temperatures and also deep inside the ice in Antarctica. Bacteria require certain nutrients to survive and multiply or some may hibernate until the right conditions arrive.  Many bacteria cling to sugars and starches that are found in most organic matter, which is why bacteria are often found in food. Bacteria will multiply or make copies of themselves under the right conditions, so it is important to prevent these conditions when you can.  Biofilms on surfaces such as toilets or sinks can also support bacterial growth. Keep in mind that not all bacteria is bad for you. Many different types of bacteria live on your skin and in your gastrointestinal tract, and some of these bacteria help your body to function. Bacterial infections can be dangerous and life threatening. If you have not been able to prevent an infection it is important to know when to call the doctor for medical assistance. Call your doctor if you have:  Had a fever over 101 for more than three days Symptoms that do not resolve on their own after a couple of days Pain and discomfort that requires pain medication A cough that either does or does not produce sputum (mucus coughed up from the lungs) that continues for more than a week A ruptured eardrum with pus drainage A headache and fever and are unable to hold your head up Been vomiting a lot and can’t hold down fluid Some situations may require immediate emergency medical care. Have someone take you to an emergency room or call 911. Seek immediate medical attention if you:  Experience swelling, redness, fever, and pain Weakness, sensory loss, a stiff neck, fever, nausea or vomiting, tiredness, and disorientation Have seizures Have trouble breathing or feel like you won’t have the strength to continue breathing

Bacterial pharyngitis can be transmitted through droplets in the air or by touching surfaces that have also been touched by an infected person. Therefore, if you have bacterial pharyngitis, the best way to prevent others from catching it is to stay away from others as much as possible.  Take time off work if you are allowed sick days. Cancel social commitments with others to avoid spreading your illness. Washing your hands frequently (and thoroughly) will also help to prevent others from catching it. Wash for at least 30 seconds with soap and warm water. Another option is to carry an alcohol-based hand sanitizer with you for use throughout the day. Finally, to prevent transmission of your bacterial pharyngitis to others, refrain from sharing objects whenever possible. Also clean any shared surfaces, such as doorknobs, kitchen appliances, TV remotes, and phones, after use.

Bad dreams are caused by all sorts of random things, from the food you ate before bed, to something you watched on TV, or even because of stress or problems in your life that are completely unrelated to the dream.  There is no relationship between bad (or good) things that happen in your dream and things that are going to happen in your real life, so don't stress or worry that your dream is predicting the future. While dreams don't have any relationship to the future, they are a reflection of the past and your current life: they reflect trauma, stress, memories, and experiences your mind is trying to assimilate as you rest.  When you wake from a bad dream in the middle of the night, it is important that you immediately turn your mind away from the dream and latch on to something in your reality. Think about whatever brings you the most joy in life: your family, your pets, a loved one, a gorgeous sunset. This is called "guided imagery," an intentional mental strategy to guide your mind in the right direction to relax. Calm down and just relax. Nightmares are known to cause physiological responses such as an increased heart rate and a cold sweat. Practice some meditative techniques to get your mind off of your dream and calmed enough to return to sleep. Practice deep abdominal breathing to relax your heart rate. Lying on your back, place your hand over your stomach and slowly inhale deeply through your nose. Let the air expand your belly instead of your chest, then slowly push the air out with your hand through pursed lips. Focus on the feeling of the air filling and leaving your body. When you were a very young child, it is likely that your mother or father comforted you when you had a bad dream. You can evoke the same feeling by reciting words of comfort to yourself when you wake alone.  It can be as simple as "You're awake, you're safe. You're awake, you're safe." You could also recite the words to a peaceful poem (Robert Frost's "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening" is a great choice) or the lyrics to a...

Bait your hook or jig with your chosen bait. Then cast your line. Let the hook or lure sink to the bottom of the river or lake. Once it is at the bottom, you need to retrieve your hook. You can work your line in two main ways, slow retrieval and fast retrieval. The speed that you do this will depend on the time of year. To retrieve your hook, pull back on the fishing rod. Slowly lay your rod back straight, pulling in the line as it sinks to keep it taut. Repeat until you have reeled the line all the way in.  In those times when walleye are slower, such as late summer, fall, and during the middle of the day, use slow retrieval. When you pull back on your rod, do so slowly, making the jig or hook move slowly through the water to entice the walleye. In spring and early summer when the walleye are more aggressive, use fast retrieval. Pull your rod back quickly, making the jig or bait zoom through the water. This will entice the more aggressive walleye to chase after your hook. Since walleye are known to be near shorelines, you can fish for them from the bank of lakes and rivers. Cast the line into the lake or river, aiming for the areas 3-10 feet from the shore where the walleye are most active. When you feel something tug on your line, a walleye might be biting on your hook. When you feel this, pull firmly back on your rod. This is called setting your hook. This will pull the hook into the lip of the walleye and secure it on your line. Reel your line it to bring your fish out of the water.  You can use a net to grab the fish once it is reeled in or do it by hand. If you are doing it by hand, watch out for the walleye's back fins. They are sharp and will cut you if you are not careful. You may need a pair of pliers to get the hook out of the walleye's mouth.  Have them on hand just in case the hook gets stuck. You can catch a walleye in a boat using the method known as trolling. On your boat, cast your trolling rods off the back of your boat and let the line sink. Then, using a trolling motor, drive slowly around...

Bake the quiche as directed, but place it on a baking sheet before doing so. When you finish baking it, transfer the tray to the freezer, and let the quiche freeze until the soft center is frozen as hard as ice. Even though the quiche is technically solid after it bakes, the filling is still quite soft. Letting it tray freeze before going into long-term freezer storage can prevent the soft filling from getting damaged in the freezer. Use a layer of plastic wrap and a layer of aluminum foil to wrap up the pre-frozen quiche, making sure that all the edges are thoroughly sealed to prevent excess exposure to the air.  If necessary, you can also place the quiche in a large plastic freezer bag for an even more airtight seal. Label the quiche with the current date and the contents of the dish. This will allow you to keep track of how long the quiche has been in the freezer. Keep the quiche in its pie dish and place it in the freezer, keeping it at a temperature of 0 degrees Fahrenheit (-18 degrees Celsius) until you are ready to serve it. Baked quiche can be frozen for two to three months, if necessary, without the quality being negatively affected. Do not thaw the quiche before you warm it up. Pull it out of the freezer and transfer it to an oven preheated to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (180 degrees Celsius). Let it bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until it has completely warmed through. It is recommended that you do not thaw the quiche before warming it. Thawing it first can make the crust get moist and soggy.

Baking powder is actually just baking soda mixed with a dry acid, so you can make your own baking powder in a pinch if what you have on hand isn't fresh. To make 1 tablespoon (14 g) of baking powder, whisk together 1 teaspoon (5 g) of baking soda and 2 teaspoons (7 g) of cream of tartar. To make larger quantities of baking powder, mix baking soda and cream of tartar at a one-to-two ratio and store extras in an airtight container. Another acid you can use to convert baking soda into baking powder is buttermilk. To make baking powder this way, combine ½ teaspoon (2 g) of baking soda with ½ cup (118 ml) of buttermilk. This baking powder alternative is best in recipes that already call for the buttermilk, such as:  Pancakes Muffins Biscuits Waffles Breading or batter Doughnuts Both lemon juice and vinegar contain acid that will help activate baking soda and turn it into baking powder. To make this alternative, combine ¼ teaspoon (1 g) of baking soda and 1 teaspoon (5 ml) of lemon juice or vinegar. This yields 1 teaspoon (5 g) of baking powder. When making baking powder with a liquid plus baking soda, reduce the amount of other liquids in the recipe by the same amount. For instance, if you made 2 teaspoons of baking powder made with lemon juice and baking soda, reduce the milk in the recipe by 2 teaspoons.

Baking soda has been known to irritate certain skin types, so avoid it if you're worried or know you're sensitive. In its place, substitute some more organic arrowroot or non-GMO cornstarch -- both are gentle for sensitive skin. If you can find it, some recipes substitute 2TB Bentonite clay for one tablespoons of baking soda. It is also good for sensitive skin types, though it is not always easy to find. While you can ignore it, instead adding more coconut oil and butter, it is a nice touch that makes a much gentler, easier to spread deodorant. Probiotics help fight bad-smelling bacteria on your skin. Add it with the arrowroot and other powders. Make sure the mixture has cooled slightly so that it is warm, but not hot, to the touch. Hot oils can kill the probiotics. The probiotic needs to be one that doesn't have to be refrigerated. DE, which is mostly made up of the essential trace mineral silica, helps your body fight rashes and infections, helping the deodorant stay on comfortably. You should make sure it is food-grade, and thus safe for application, and add with the powdered ingredients.

Baking soda is a powerful exfoliant and can help with the treatment of blackheads when applied properly. In order to use baking soda and water, you will first have to mix the two together to form a paste.  In general, you should mix equal parts baking soda and lukewarm water. How much you use depends on how many areas of your face you need to cover.  If you want to add a dash of apple cider vinegar to the mixture, this can serve as a toner. It's optional, however.  Mix the ingredients together until they form a paste-like substance. Before you use the mixture, you should wash your hands. You want to make sure you don't get any outside debris into your pores while you're washing your skin.  Wet your hands with clean running water and then apply an antibacterial hand soap. Work the soap into a lather.  Scrub your hands for at least 20 seconds, making sure to wash the back of your hand, under your fingernails, and between your fingers. To keep track of time, you can try humming the "Happy Birthday" song twice.  Rinse your hands thoroughly and dry them off using a clean towel. After you've washed your hands, splash your face with clean, warm water. This will open your pores and help with the cleansing process. You can also wet a washcloth with hot water and drape it over your face until it cools.

Baking soda is basic, with a pH value of 9. Drop 1 teaspoon (4.9 mL) of it into a glass of water, and then stir briskly with a spoon or whisk. Keep stirring until all of the crumbs of baking soda have dissolved. Then, measure the water’s pH again using a litmus strip. If you started with neutral water (pH 7), the water’s pH should have increased up to about 8. Mix the 2 liquids together using a spoon. Then dip a strip of litmus paper into the water. Wait a few seconds, and note how the pH level of the water has changed. Since lemon juice is acidic, with a pH value of 2, the pH level of a neutral glass of water should have lowered to a 6 or 5. Many common liquids and dissolvable substances found around the home will alter the pH level of water. Dissolve or mix a small amount of one substance at a time into a glass of clean water, and then test with a litmus strip. If you’re performing a science experiment, make a chart on which you can record the pH values of water with different substances added, each to a separate glass of water. Try adding:  Coke. Red wine. Milk. Liquid soap or shampoo.
