Helicopter parents often swoop in and do things for their children, even though the children would have been perfectly capable of doing it on their own. This increases dependency and deprives kids of the chance to try things for themselves, so give them a chance to figure it out.  If you're having a hard time with this, start with small things, like letting your children dress themselves or make their own lunches. Once you get more comfortable with them doing everyday activities on their own, you may feel better about letting them deal with more complicated situations on their own too. If you know that your children do certain things for themselves when they are at school or with the babysitter, hold them to that same standard of independence when you are around. If your children are used to your helicopter parenting, they may be accustomed to running to you for help whenever something is challenging or doesn't go their way. This will not help your children learn and grow, so avoid running to their aid right away.  If your children are in immediate danger of any kind, help them right away! It may help to count to ten in non-emergency situations. For example, if your child asks you to help him with a puzzle, tell him you'll be there in a minute. Then count to ten, while he takes some more time to work on it himself. He might just figure it out without your help. While there's nothing wrong with contacting the school to help resolve an issue, you should always ask yourself if your child would be able to handle it without you first. If the answer is yes, allow your child the opportunity to deal with the situation before you intervene. For example, if your child is having a problem with another child at school, do not intervene right away. However, if your child is being bullied, you should intervene right away.  This is especially true if your children are in college. You should only contact the school in extreme situations. Some signs of bullying include coming home from school with injuries, losing personal...

Henna powder is derived from the henna flower. The powder is made into a paste that is applied to skin or hair to turn it a coppery reddish color. Henna powder typically comes in 100-gram boxes, which is the perfect amount to dye medium-length hair. Paprika and clove powder can also be used to dye your hair various shades of red. If you don't have access to henna powder, try one of these spices instead. According to the instructions that came with your henna powder, mix the powder with spoonfuls of water until you have a creamy paste. If you want to lighten your hair as well as turning it red, use lemon juice in place of water. Cover the paste and let it sit overnight. Stir in one more spoonful of water the next day, and the henna paste is ready to go. Wet your hair (no need to shampoo it), towel dry it, and comb through it to remove any tangles. Put on a pair of latex or plastic gloves to protect yourself from the dye. Use your fingers to work the henna paste through your hair, making sure to cover every strand.  If a stray bit of henna paste gets on your skin, wipe it off right away. Henna paste will dye your skin just as easily as it dyes your hair. For henna highlights, separate strands of hair you'd like to highlight from the rest of your head using strips of aluminum foil. Paint the henna paste onto the strands of hair using an old pastry brush. Put on a shower cap or use a few pieces of plastic wrap to cover your hair while the dye sets in. Let it sit in your hair for at least 4 hours. The longer you let it sit, the redder your hair will be. Use cold water to wash out the dye. Keep running the water through your hair until it runs clear instead of red. Wait until the next day before shampooing your hair. Your hair will be rich red at first, and over the course of a few days it will lighten.

Herbs should be watered based on the soil conditions, rather than after a set number of days. Every few days, inspect the soil where the herbs are planted. If it looks dry, or the top few inches feel dry, lightly water the soil but not the foliage. Do your best not to overwater the plants, as herbs only require moist, not soggy, soil. Water the herbs in the morning or evening, rather than in the heat of the day. Herbs don’t require much fertilizer, especially if they’re planted in rich soil. You can use a natural, balanced fertilizer once or twice each growing season, but be warned that too much fertilizer can alter the flavor of the herbs. Simply sprinkle slow-release granules of fertilizer onto the soil around the herbs. Use only half as much as the package directs. Herbs in containers require more fertilization than those grown directly in a garden. Aim to fertilize herbs in pots twice per growing season. To preserve moisture, protect the herbs from cold temperatures, and keep weeds from growing near them, you can add mulch. Choose an organic mulch like leaves, pine needles, straw, wood chips, or cocoa bean shells, and layer it up to 4 inches (10 cm) deep around the base of the plant. Take care not to get mulch on the crown of the plant. Throughout the growing season, you can increase your yield with a little pruning. Use sharp shears to cut away small portions of the top of the plant or the leaves. Avoid pruning more than ⅓ of the plant, which could damage it and decrease its growth. Herbs don’t generally suffer from diseases or pest infestations. However, if you do notice problems, like spider mites or powdery mildew, use natural products to treat the herbs. Visit your local garden center and ask for a recommendation on a pesticide or fungicide to clear up your specific problem.

Here's what you'll need to make ginger ale using the stove-top method:  1 1/2 ounces finely grated fresh ginger 3/4 c (6 ounces) sugar 7 1/2 cups (60 ounces) filtered water 1/8 teaspoon (.5 g) active dry yeast 2 tablespoons (30 g) freshly squeezed lemon juice Over medium-high heat, add the grated ginger, sugar, and 1/2 cup (4 oz) water together. Stir your concoction until the sugar has dissolved completely. This will take a few minutes, so be patient. Place it to the side, cover and allow to steep for 1 hour. Resist the urge to mess with it -- right now your concoction needs uninterrupted time. The easiest way to do this will be to pour the syrup through a fine mesh strainer set directly over the bowl. Press down on the bits to get all of the juice out of the mixture. Once you've got as much liquid out as possible, throw the bowl in an ice bath or set in the refrigerator until the concoction reaches room temperature -- 68 to 72°F (20 to 22°C). Place it on top of a clean, plastic 2-liter bottle and pour in the syrup. Then, add the yeast, lemon juice and remaining 7 cups of water (56 oz). Twist the cap on the bottle until it's securely on and gently shake to mix everything together. Leave it alone and at room temperature for 48 hours. But no longer! If you leave it out too long, the taste will start to become too bitter as the yeast ferments. Pop open the top and check for the right amount of carbonation. If there seems to be enough, throw that baby in the fridge. If not, wait a little longer. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks, opening the bottle at least once a day to let out excess carbonation. Otherwise pressure will build up and you risk it exploding.

Hereditary forms of anemia can’t be completely cured. However, you can treat them by avoiding certain triggers that cause you to destroy more RBCs. Common ways to keep yourself healthy so you do not trigger RBC destruction include keeping yourself warm, staying hydrated, limiting contact with food triggers, and avoiding contact with people with colds, the flu, or other bacterial or viral disorders.  This can be easier said than done. You can't always know if the people you come into contact with have a cold or the flu. Stay as healthy as possible to keep your immune system healthy and be less susceptible to infections. Sickle cell anemia can be triggered by cold, dehydration, exercise, fever, and infections. When you have sickle cell anemia, there are certain lifestyle changes you can make to help avoid a sickle crisis. These include:  Drinking plenty of water every day Avoiding temperature extremes, either cold or hot Exercising in moderation Flying only on airplanes with pressurized cabins Using supplemental oxygen at high altitudes A certain form of anemia is caused by the deficiency of a specific enzyme called G6PD. This form of anemia can be triggered by foods, drugs, and other substances. Always read the list of ingredients on any product you eat or come into contact with to make certain it doesn’t contain anything that can trigger it. Ingredients that trigger issues if you have G6PD deficiency are:  Fava beans and all legumes Sulfites Menthol and artificial blue coloring Black or green teas Ascorbic acid Tonic water, which contains quinine Some gluten-free products, which may contain fava beans

Here’s how to check:  If you’re using a Mac, open the Apple menu and click “About this Mac.” Click “More Info,” then “Bluetooth” in the list on the left side of the screen. If the right side of the Hardware screen shows any sort of device information (such as “Apple Bluetooth Software Version 4”), you have Bluetooth. In Windows, press ⊞ Win+X and select “Device Manager.” Click “Laptop.” If you see a category under Laptop called “Bluetooth Radios,” click it to expand a list of Bluetooth devices. If anything appears in this list, you have Bluetooth. Find a location in your home or office to place the Bluetooth speakers. Some things to keep in mind:  The speakers will need to be plugged into a power source. Having a wall between the laptop and the speaker shouldn’t affect the connection too much, but it can potentially decrease sound quality. If you want to be able to turn the speakers on and off easily, you may not want to mount them in a difficult-to-reach location. Check your speaker manual to find out how close your laptop must be to your speakers. Typically these speakers can be up to 30 feet away, but some devices may have lower ranges. This process is different depending on the manufacturer of your speakers. Often there is a button on the speakers that must be held down for a few seconds to put the device into “discovery” mode. Check your manual to be sure. This process depends on your operating system:  If you’re using Windows 8 or 10, open the Action Center by clicking on the notification icon in the taskbar (near the clock). Select “Bluetooth,” then “Connect” to begin the search for devices. When the speakers appear, select them to connect. Windows 7 users should open the Start menu, then click “Devices and Printers.” Click “Add a device” to start a search for Bluetooth devices. When the speakers show up, select them and click “Next” to pair the devices. Mac users, select “System Preferences” from the Apple menu and click “Bluetooth.” Make sure Bluetooth is set to On, then wait for the speakers to...

Hernias may be caused by a host of different factors. Once they are formed, they may or may not present pain. Look for these symptoms, especially for hernias located in the abdominal or groin region: You see swelling where the pain is located. The swelling is usually on the surface of the areas such as the thigh, abdomen or groin.     The swelling may or may not hurt.     Bulges, such as those that you find in an inguinal hernia, can often be pushed back into your abdomen when you lie down. Bulges that cannot be pushed in when pressed down on need immediate medical attention.     You may notice pain that ranges from mild discomfort to severe pain. A common symptom of hernias is pain present when straining or doing a strenuous activity. If you experience pain during the following activities, you may have a hernia:     Lift heavy objects.     Cough or sneeze.     Exercise or exert yourself.     Hernia pain is often worse at the end of the day, or after long periods of standing. Why do hernias affect more than 5 million Americans? Hernias can happen for many reasons, including straining on the toilet, chronic constipation, heavy lifting, and smoking. Here are a few more of the factors that put people at an increased risk for hernias: Genetic predisposition: If any of your parents had hernias, you are more likely to develop one.     Age: The older you get, the higher your chance of getting a hernia.     Pregnancy: While pregnant, the mother's stomach stretches out, making a hernia more likely.     Sudden weight loss: People who suddenly lose weight are at increased risk of developing a hernia.     Obesity: People who are overweight have higher chances of developing hernias compared to those who are not.     Persistent cough: Coughing puts a lot of pressure and stress on the abdomen, and can lead to a hernia.

Hibiscus plants need a pot of their own to grow in, so plan on using 1 pot for each rooted cutting. You can purchase hibiscus soil at some hardware stores, as well as at nurseries. Pour the soil into the pot with about 1 inch (2.5 cm) of space at the top. If you can't find specialty hibiscus soil, you can use any high-quality topsoil. Mix the topsoil with 4 parts soil to 1 part sand or peat moss to make it slightly less rich. Using your hands or a garden spade, make a space in the soil to plant the cutting. Be sure to account for the size of the roots of the plant, which will need to fit into the hole. When in doubt, make the hole slightly larger than necessary and fill it in will more soil later. Lower the stem into the soil, being careful not to damage the fresh roots. Position it so that the leaves are above, but not touching, the topsoil. Then, fill the hole with soil and water the area thoroughly. If your leaves are touching the soil, they can begin to rot. Depending on the size of the cutting, you may need to add a small amount of soil to the bottom of the hole to ensure that the plant isn't buried too deep. After planting, place the pot in a bright area away from direct sunlight as the roots become established in the soil. Leave the plants in the indirect sunlight all day for 2 weeks. Once 2 weeks have passed, move the plant to direct sunlight to jumpstart growth of the stem and leaves. Hibiscus plants love the sun, so once the roots are established, leave the plant in the sun, rotating it every few months to get even sunlight. To make sure you aren't giving your hibiscus too much water, feel the soil about 1.5 hours after you water the plant. It should be slightly moist, but not wet. If it's wet, limit watering to every other day to avoid standing water in the pot. In the winter, water the hibiscus with warm water around 95 °F (35 °C) to encourage growth.

Hidden cameras are designed to be as discrete as possible, but many will still emit a slight sound when they are working. When the area of suspected surveillance is as quiet as possible, walk around slowly to listen out for any buzzing or slight clicking noises that might be coming from a hidden camera.  Try searching the room late at night to reduce the ambient sound in the room. This will make isolating and locating any noises much easier. There are plenty of different mechanical and electrical devices that can make quiet buzzing and clicking noises. Combine this method with other ways of identifying hidden cameras and microphones to differentiate between malicious and ordinary items. Surveillance devices can be hidden inside other devices that require electricity, such as smoke detectors. Take your smoke detector down from the ceiling and look for a microphone or camera inside. Check your speakers, lamps, and other electronics for signs of tampering that may indicate someone added a microphone.  Smoke detectors are a perfect place for microphones to be hidden as they have built-in power and are normally centralized in a room. Microphones or cameras hidden inside smoke detectors or other electronics will usually be easily visible. Look for anything that doesn't seem to be attached to the rest of the device, or anything that looks like a microphone or camera. One of the most common ways of hiding a microphone or camera in a room is by hiding it in something inconspicuous, such as a teddy bear or a vase of flowers. Look around the room for any decorations that seem like they don’t fit with the rest of the space, or that are angled in peculiar ways.  While most of a camera can be hidden inside something else, the lens will almost always need to be completely visible for the camera to work. Check your suspicious decorations for glassy surfaces or visible lenses that might indicate a hidden camera. The most effective cameras will be positioned so that they can see as much of the room as possible. Look for...

High-proof, unflavored liquor such as vodka is the ideal solvent to help break down persistent e-juice deposits.  Dampen a microfiber cloth or paper towel with the alcohol and rub the dirtied areas until the e-juice is removed. Wipe and rinse with warm water.  While isopropyl rubbing alcohol (90%) also works well, it can be toxic if you don’t rinse and dry the tank extremely well after cleaning.  Soap and other types of detergents are unnecessary when cleaning a vape tank and may leave behind unwanted residue. Ultrasonic jewelry cleaning machines are designed to remove residue from small, fragile items and are perfect for cleaning your vape tank.  There are also similar devices designed specifically for cleaning vape equipment. If you have access to one of these machines, fill it with warm distilled water, vodka, or rubbing alcohol and use it according to the included directions.  You can purchase these machines from many vaping stores or online. You may also be able to take your equipment to a vaping store and have them clean your device. Do not allow parts that have plastic, rubber, or vinyl components to sit in alcohol for too long. Usually, one cycle in a cleaning machine will be sufficient to clean your tank, etc. Be sure to fully rinse and dry your tank after cleaning. Overnight soaking in water or alcohol is not recommended, as it may degrade your equipment.  Similarly, boiling your tank may cause damage as well. While these methods may work with some pieces, they are unnecessarily risky.

Higher intensity interval workouts have become more popular.  They are known to torch calories, but specifically burn higher amounts of body fat compared with traditional cardio.  A study conducted by the University of Virginia found that people who had 3 out of 5 cardio sessions per week with intervals burned more belly fat, although they technically burned the same calories during the workout itself.   Most gym machines come with interval programs.  You can do interval programs on treadmills, stationary bikes, and elliptical machines. You can create your own high-intensity interval program by alternating between short bursts of very high-intensity exercises with longer bouts of more moderate-intensity exercises.  For example, you can try alternating between 1-minute sprints and 5 minutes of jogging. In addition to interval training, studies have shown that it's equally important to do at least 30 minutes of cardio exercises each week to help reduce belly fat.  To specifically decrease visceral or belly fat, some health professionals even recommended doing up to 60 minutes daily of aerobic activities to have a more significant effect on visceral fat.  Try walking, biking, swimming, hiking, running, working out on an elliptical or rowing machine. Aim to do these activities at a moderate pace.  This is usually described as when it is possible, but difficult, to keep up a conversation as you perform the activity. Lifestyle activities are a great way to add more exercise to your day.  Being more active throughout the day has been shown to have similar benefits to 150 minutes of planned cardio each week.  Choose times when you are sedentary, such as watching TV, break time at the office or commuting and insert activity into the mix.  Think of times when you can move more or take more steps. For example, do sit-ups, pushups, and planks during commercial breaks. Stretch while you are stuck in traffic and walk around the office during break time. You can also consider buying a pedometer or downloading a step counter...

Himalayans require vaccinations like all other cats, so make sure that you take your Himalayan to see a veterinarian right away. Your cat will also need to be tested for feline leukemia and have a thorough physical exam as well. Following this first appointment, you will need to make sure that your cat receives booster shots and that she has veterinary exam every year. If you do not plan to breed your Himalayan, then you should have your cat spayed or neutered to help prevent unwanted kittens. The cat population is already out of control and there are not enough homes for all of them, so spaying and neutering your cats is a good way to help prevent pet homelessness. Himalayans are prone to respiratory problems because of their flat faces, so you will need to watch for breathing difficulties. Tell your cat's veterinarian if you notice that your Himalayan is wheezing or seems to be having a hard time breathing. Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) is more common in Himalayans than other types of cats. The breeder should be able to provide proof that neither of your cat's parents had this disease, but you can also have your cat checked by your veterinarian. To detect PKD, your cat's veterinarian can perform a DNA test or an ultrasound.

Hit the switch on your tub or unscrew the drain stopper to an open position so that water can go down your drain. If water is slow, or your tub fills up and doesn't drain, your drain has to be unclogged before you can clean it. Bring a 2 L (8.5  c) pot or kettle of water to a boil on your stovetop. The hot water will be able to flush away any loose hair or soap scum in the drain. If you have metal pipes, you can pour the boiling water directly down the drain. You should do this at least once a week to flush out built up soap scum and gunk that's left over from bathing.

Hoarding isn’t just passively allowing items to build up over time, but instead comes from a conscious effort to save things. People who have compulsive hoarding disorder can have many reasons for collecting and keeping objects. They might not want to be wasteful, they may have sentimental attachment to the items, or they may think that items in their hoard will come in handy someday. All of this contributes to an extreme over-attachment.  People who have compulsive hoarding disorder may be uncomfortable about letting other people touch or borrow their possessions. They may also show distress at the idea of getting rid of items. This distress is related to their perceived need to save things. About 80% to 90% of people who have compulsive hoarding disorder are also “acquisitive,” which means that they not only keep items but also excessively acquire things for which there is no need or room. Psychologically, caches of items are sort of like a “protective shell” for the person with compulsive hoarding disorder. They may not recognize that hoarding is a problematic behavior, even in spite of proof to the contrary, and can be in a state of denial. The mere thought of getting rid of items can therefore cause them great distress.  Some people who have compulsive hoarding disorder will go into a panic when an object is only moved – not even discarded. They may interpret pressure to clean as a personal violation and will quickly rebuild, sometimes within months. A non-sufferer sees clutter that can be cleared away – rooms that can be used, beds that can be slept in, meals that can be cooked. However, a person with compulsive hoarding disorder treats the home like a storage facility rather than a living space. Compulsive hoarding doesn’t always occur on its own. It oftentimes develops alongside other mental or behavioral issues. Watch out for these patterns in loved ones that you think might suffer from compulsive hoarding disorder.  Hoarding may appear alongside Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), Attention Deficit...

Hold 1-2 bunches of greens directly under a stream of cool water, or place them in a colander to wash large bunches more efficiently. Once they’re clean, shake them gently to remove excess water or pat them dry between a layer of folded paper towels.  You can feed 2-4 people with 1-2 bunches of sautéd greens. When sautéing greens, it’s important to start with leaves that are nice and dry. That way, you can make sure they end up with just the right texture and prevent them from sending hot oil splattering everywhere when they hit the skillet. Try to only separate the thick, tough stems, leaving the leaves themselves intact. Be sure to remove every last stem—they won’t soften up much, no matter how long you sauté them. Set your cooktop to medium-high heat and swirl the oil in the skillet until the entire cooking surface is evenly coated. Once it begins to shimmer faintly, it will be time to add your mustard greens.  You can use just about any oil for sautéing greens. Coconut, avocado, and extra virgin olive oil are especially popular with chefs due to their smooth flavor and healthy fats.  For a burst of aromatic flavor, heat 1-2 diced shallots, 1 clove of minced garlic, or ½ of a sliced bell pepper along with your oil. The greens will begin to cook down quickly once they come into contact with the hot oil. Stir them sporadically to keep them moving around the skillet and ensure that the heat stays evenly distributed.  As an optional step, pour in 1 cup (240 mL) of chicken or vegetable broth after your greens have wilted. A splash of broth will help ensure that your mustard greens come out of the skillet plump, moist, and packed with flavor.  Leave the skillet uncovered to allow excess moisture to escape. If you want to jazz up your greens a bit, sprinkle on some kosher salt and black pepper, or turn heat up a notch with a dash or cayenne or crushed red pepper flakes. Top them off with a squeeze of lemon to lend a hint of acidity, then serve and enjoy!  Sautéd mustard greens are great on their own or when...

Hold a leaf from a Staghorn fern over a white piece of paper, bottom side up. Use a butter knife to gently scrape off the little brown dots all over the bottom of the leaf. Once you have a pile about the size of a quarter, you can stop. Be careful to keep the spore pile on the piece of paper. You can also purchase spores in little packets from nurseries if you don't have access to a fern leaf. Hold the piece of paper flat in front of you and tap the bottom with one finger several times. The casings that the spores were in will begin to separate out, while the spores cling to the paper. Dispose of the casings and keep the spores on the paper to sow right away. Any plastic container with a tight-fitting lid will do, just be sure it will fit in your microwave. Then add a 1- to 2-inch (2.5 to 5 cm) layer of fine perlite, followed by a 2- to 3-inch (5 to 7.5 cm) layer of peat moss. Press the peat moss down with your fingers so that the top is flat and even.  Since the container will be heated in the microwave, be sure it is microwave safe. Make sure the container is large enough to leave several inches between the mixture and the lid. This will allow the fern room to grow. If you don't have a microwave-safe plastic container, you can microwave the growing mixture in a different container and then transfer it to the plastic container you want to use when you're finished. Boil some water and allow it to cool slightly, or just buy distilled water. Pour 2 cups (0.5 mL) slowly and evenly over the mixture so you don't disrupt the layers. Place the lid over the mixture and put the container in the microwave. Heat on regular power for ten minutes to sterilize the mixture and the container. Be careful when you remove it since it will be very hot. Pour 2 cups (0.5 L) of distilled water that have cooled to room temperature into the container. This will cool the mixture down enough that you can safely add the spores. Gently shake the paper and move it around over the container to spread the spores evenly across the mixture....

Hold the 400-grit file perpendicular to the tip of your nail. Using a very small amount of force, pull the file over the edge to the top of the nail 1-2 times. This will create a “finished” edge to protect your nail. Do this very gently to avoid cracking and splitting. Brush over your nails with a soft dust brush or a cotton ball to remove nail dust and lift any loose pieces of nail. Wipe under each nail, as well, to remove dust and filings. If you have small pieces of nail leftover from filing that are still attached to the nail, use your 240-grit file to very gently remove the pieces by running the edge of the file over them 1-2 times. This will cause them to detach from the nail. Be careful not to change the shape of the nail as you do this. Rub a nail buffer horizontally over the surface of your nails with a vigorous back and forth motion. This smoothes out imperfections in the nails that you can’t address with a file.  If you’re planning to polish your nails, buffing can help the polish spread evenly across the nails. It would also be helpful to push back your cuticles to ensure smooth polish applications. If you aren't planning to use nail polish, consider putting a drop of top coat on your nail before you buff. This will create a natural-looking luster. your nails with base coat, color, and topcoat. Apply a thin coat of protective base coat to your first nail and allow it to dry while you polish your other nails. 2 coats of nail polish in your favorite color, waiting 5 minutes in between coats. Finish with a layer of strengthening top coat. Wait 20-30 minutes for your nails to completely dry. If you don’t want to use color, you can apply only the base coat and top coat layers, which will protect your nails and give them a glossy appearance.

Hold the bristles beneath a stream of tap water to rinse the paint off. Or, swish the bristles around in a cup of water. This will ensure that paint colors don't blend together on the bristles. Then, once you've rinsed the colors out of the bristles, blot your paintbrush on a clean cloth to prevent runoff. This will keep water from running up and down the heel of the brush, creating blotchy paint on the canvas. Do not wash your color palette, since the acrylic paint might clog your pipes. Instead, use a plastic tray as a color palette, and let the leftover paint dry after you're finished using it. Then, peel the paint off from the tray when it's completely dried. Or, instead of disposing of the dried paint, you can apply new, wet paint directly over the dried paints.

Hold the entire ginger plant under a stream of warm water and scrub it vigorously with your hands or a clean scrub brush. Ginger can be tough to clean due to its unusual shape, so make sure that you wash off all of the nooks and crannies.  If you are worried that it isn't clean enough, let it dry for a few minutes and repeat the process. For an even greater level of cleanliness, use a vegetable wash available at your local grocery or gardening store. Place the entire chunk of ginger on a cutting board and cleanly separate the 2 sections. You can either discard the shoots or use them as a cooking garnish. Set aside the rhizome for preparation for cooking or storing. Prepare ginger shoots in the same way that you'd do with green onions. Use a sharp knife to chop the shoots into tiny pieces. Then, place a few pinches on top of food as a garnish to give it a mild taste of ginger. Place your ginger on a cutting board. Hold it firmly with 1 hand and use the other hand to hold the knife. Slide the knife's blade just under the rough outer skin and remove it in strips. Your goal is to expose the lighter colored flesh underneath.  Because of the shape of ginger rhizomes you can expect to make many short cuts, instead of a few long smooth ones. Don't worry about how it looks, just keep going. When you are finished, hold the peeled ginger under the water to rinse off any dirt or debris. Place your unpeeled ginger root on a cutting board and cut it into cubes. Then, arrange the pieces in a single layer on a cookie sheet. Freeze them, uncovered, for 1-2 hours. Remove the cubes and place them into freezer bags for storage.  When preserved this way your ginger cubes can stay fresh for 3-4 months. Another benefit of this method is that you can take out single pieces to use for recipes without wasting the rest of the ginger.

Hold the glittery items in front of you and spray them liberally with hair spray from an aerosol can. Make sure you get into all of the nooks and crannies of your garments. If you’re dealing with a large amount of glitter, turn the items inside out and spray the interior, as well. Allow the hair spray to dry completely. Avoid using hair spray that doesn’t come in an aerosol spray can, since the mist won’t be fine enough to be effective. After the hair spray has completely dried, place the items in your washing machine. Wash them as you normally would. Once the cycle is compete, remove the garments and place them in the dryer. Dry them as usual. Once dry, pull the clothing out and shake them out. They should be glitter-free. Do not put any other clothing in with your glittery items or you risk transferring the glitter. Wash and dry them by themselves. To prevent the glitter from spreading onto future loads of your clothing, thoroughly clean the inside of both the washer and dryer before doing any more laundry. Get a sponge damp and wipe down the interior parts of your machines. Make sure to get into the nooks and crannies. Clean your dryer’s lint trap thoroughly. If you suspect glitter has fallen into the slot that your lint trap slides into, use your vacuum cleaner with the hose attachment to retrieve it.

Hold the lime under a stream of cool water and rub gently. Pat dry with a towel. A zester is a kitchen tool with several tiny blades or sharp holes, which creates long, curling ribbons of lime zest, perfect for garnishing. Alternatively, these strips can then be chopped finely for use in cooking. Some refer to this tool as a "traditional zester" and call microplanes "microplane zesters." If you are creating a garnish for a cocktail or dish, remove part of the white pith along with the colored zest in order to keep the curl intact. If you are using the zest for cooking, try to only remove thin strips of the colored zest. Once the strips have been removed and the white pith beneath is exposed, rotate to an untouched section of the lime. Continue to pull the zester over the lime until you have the amount of zest you need for your recipe. The thickness of lime skin varies more than most citrus fruit, so it is difficult to predict how much zest is produced by one lime. If the recipe calls for "zest from one lime" without specifying the variety of lime, use approximately two tsp (10 mL) of zest. If you are using the zest as a decorative garnish, skip this step. If you are using them in a recipe, use a sharp knife to cut the zest into fine pieces.

Hold this position for fifteen to thirty seconds.  You should feel a light stretch in your lower back. You can fine-tune the stretch by making small adjustments in the way you arch your back. Because you utilise your abdominal and back muscles to arch your back, this stretch doubles as a core-strengthening exercise. It's normal to feel a very light "burn" in the back and abdominals while performing this stretch.

Hold your baby at a 45° angle when breast- or bottle-feeding. This lowers the chance that the baby will need to burp by positioning the baby in an easier position to swallow. Long, heavy feedings present a higher chance of letting the baby gulp in excess air. Try to keep the feedings light and frequent instead. In between suckling, look at your baby and try to gauge their comfort level. An uncomfortable grimace on your baby's otherwise pleasant lips may mean that she needs to burp. If the baby relaxes her face again and seems content, the urge to burp has probably passed. Some babies burp more than others, and even then, there will come times when your otherwise burp-happy baby won't need to burp. As your baby grows older, their ability to self-regulate will improve and their need to burp will fade.

Hold your left hand out in a cup position as though you were begging for money. Place a coin between your thumb and index finger and make sure it is visible to your audience. Move your right hand over your left hand to appear as though you are going to pick up the coin.  Once your right hand is in front of your left hand, drop the coin into the palm of your left hand. Resist the urge to make a fist with your left hand. Make a fist with your right hand, to appear as though you have the coin. Say the magic word and open your right hand to make your audience believe you vanished the coin. You can essentially make anything “disappear,” as long as it can fit into your palm. One way of strengthening your sleight of hand is to wear clothing with pockets and loose openings, like a suit. This way you can drop simple objects like a marble, lemon, or coin into your clothing after making it “disappear.”  Acquire a few handheld objects and practice multiple sleight of hand tricks. Practice in front of a mirror and see what angle looks the most deceptive from an audience's standpoint. Showmanship is essential to pull this trick off. The most believable tricks will be the trick where you appear nonchalant and smooth. Get a toothpick and tape it to your back of your thumbnail with the rest of the toothpick facing downwards. Put your hand in a fist with your fingers covering the tape on your thumb. Blow on the toothpick and flex your hand, it will seem to disappear if you have your palm facing the audience.  Point up and say, "Oh, there it is!" and pretend to grab it from thin air, but really you just make a fist again. This is an elementary version of sleight of hand that is good for younger magicians to practice.

Hold your mortar and pestle under warm running water. Use your hand to remove food debris from both the mortar and pestle. Once you have thoroughly rinsed them, set them aside on a drying rack or towel to air dry. Use uncooked, white rice. Using your pestle, roughly grind the rice until it becomes a dark color. Discard the colored rice. Pour in another two tablespoons (30 ml) of rice. Grind the rice until it remains white.  You may need to repeat this process one or two more times. Make sure your mortar and pestle are completely dry before grinding it with rice. Once the rice remains white, thoroughly rinse the mortar and pestle with warm water until all debris is removed. Then set the mortar and pestle on a drying rack to air dry. Make sure your mortar and pestle are dried completely before putting them away.

Hold your shoulders back and keep them still, but not to the extreme that you seem robotic. Just try not to let them bounce up and down as you walk. In addition, keep your chest out and stomach in, so you appear broader and taller, which will emphasize your masculinity. Without letting them touch your sides, try to keep your arms close to your torso. That way, your lower arms will sway freely and naturally without swinging too wildly. Further, keep your hands and fingers relaxed, and don’t ball your hands or hold them in fists. Try to keep your fingers naturally straight without overextending them. That way, you won’t look like you’re missing any fingers in photographs. Find a focal point directly ahead and lock your eyes on it. Don’t shift your eyes around or look down at your feet. Your head should point slightly downward with your chin roughly parallel with the floor. Depending on your designer’s instructions, you can look away from your focal point to make eye contact with the audience during your pose. Unless your designer tells you to, don’t smile during your walk. Without locking or pursing them, keep your lips closed, relaxed, and natural. While your facial expression should be neutral, it should still convey confidence. Confidence is key on the runway. As you walk, try thinking about how great you look. Tell yourself you’re the best looking person in the room and your posture and facial expression will reflect it.

Honesty is almost always the best policy. Be honest with a guy who likes you that’s bothering you. Don’t say, “I don’t know” if you know you don’t like him. Tactful honesty will help you say what you feel and not hide anything.  If a guy makes an effort to see you between classes or waits to catch up with you yet you don’t like this, let him know. He might feel hurt, but he would feel hurt at some point once he realizes you don’t like his presence. If you’re telling the guy you don’t like him or you want to stop talking for the first time, keep it simple. Don’t focus on telling him why or making excuses. Simply tell him you’re not interested and don’t feel the need to apologize. For example, if a guy keeps calling or texting you, respond with, "I'm really not interested in you. Please stop contacting me." You have the right to feel respected. If you feel like someone is bothering you, you can tell them directly and not have to sugar-coat it. If you’ve tried being indirect by being nice or hinting yet it didn’t work, you might want to be more direct. It’ll be clear what you mean and will minimize misunderstanding. For example, he might keep asking you to go on a date or go to an event together If you’ve already let him down but he hasn’t got the hint, say, “I don’t want to go with you” or, “I’m not interested in you that way.” If a guy likes you and you don’t like him back, be clear and don’t give him any mixed signals. If you’ve been clear that you don’t like him yet he still texts you, calls you, or wants to talk to you, stop responding to him. You might feel mean, but remember that he hasn’t gotten the hint. For example, stop responding to his texts and don’t pick up his phone calls. If he seems upset, tell him you don’t want to hear from him.

Honesty is always the best policy, and many times the politest way to make a girl leave you alone is to just be clear and direct with her.  Use any knowledge you have about her to help guide what level of interaction your conversation may require.  You may be able to simply tell her that you are not interested in a polite and friendly manner.  Many people would appreciate your honesty. Some people may appreciate a more in-depth conversation.  If she has expressed her feelings for you, it might help her to be able to discuss the situation a bit, as long as you’re comfortable. Don’t dance around the subject or prolong the conversation with unrelated topics.  Be clear that you aren’t interested in her romantically.  Don’t use language like, “I don’t think I can” or “I can’t” in your discussion.  Passive language can make your motivations unclear and suggest that you may have wanted to pursue a relationship under other circumstances.  It’s okay to mention that the conversation isn’t easy, that may even help her to feel better, but don’t do so in a manner that suggests you wish things could be different.  Saying something like, “this isn’t easy for me to talk about” demonstrates that you care, without going too far. Just because you aren’t interested in her romantically does not mean she isn’t a person with feelings.  Dating isn’t easy for many people and it may have been difficult for her to approach you to begin with.  Be mindful of your tone of voice.  You want to sound calm, friendly and sure, but don’t leave her with a false impression. Don’t become defensive if she gets upset.  Try to understand where she’s coming from and what is upsetting her.  Don’t be dismissive of what she has to say.  Treat her with the same courtesy that you would hope to be treated with. She clearly sees something positive in you, or she wouldn’t be interested in you romantically.  That’s a significant compliment; don’t take it lightly.  If she has expressed feelings for you or asked you out, tell her that you’re flattered by her...

Honesty is one of the most important aspects of integrity. If you are dishonest or misleading with others, you cannot live a life of integrity. Part of being honest with others also includes keeping any promises that you make. A broken promise is effectively a lie, and lying is inconsistent with living with integrity.  Always be truthful with others, even when it lands you in trouble. Lying is almost always the wrong thing to do, especially when you lie for your own gain. If you're worried honesty might hurt someone's feelings, it may be best to say nothing at all. Excuse yourself by saying something like, "I don't think I'm the best person to give an opinion on _____." Living honestly includes being honest with yourself at all times. Check in with your thoughts/feelings, acknowledge how you feel, and be aware of how those feelings influence your behavior. You cannot live a life of integrity without being mindful of and concerned for others. A lack of compassion or sympathy for others can often result in poor judgment, acts of selfishness, and ultimately a damaged relationship with someone you care about.  Try to be understanding of how others feel. If someone did a poor job at work, for example, consider that they might be having an exceptionally bad day. Be kind to other people, even in minor ways. For example, when you go to the store, ask the hard-working cashier how their day is going, and wish them a good rest of the day. Help others whenever possible. You can do this through acts of charity, or by simply offering a helping hand to someone in need at work or on the street. A good way to ensure that you're living a life of integrity is to lay out a roadmap for yourself. Assess where you are now in life and consider where you want to be in the future in terms of your personal integrity and moral character.  Write out your goals and your values. Think hard about what kind of person you want to be and what you hope to achieve in your lifetime. Commit to developing yourself in meaningful ways. Remember that...

Honesty is the cornerstone of any relationship. Sometimes, in a relationship, telling the truth can be hard, but you should never take the easy way out by lying to your girlfriend, even for minor, everyday things. Lying demonstrates to your girlfriend that you don't trust her with the truth. Getting caught in a lie within the context of a relationship can put tremendous stress on the relationship itself and may even lead to a breakup. It's also important to remember that, in the long run, telling the truth is easier than lying. Keeping a complex web of lies straight in your head can be incredibly stressful - just one slip of the tongue may ruin you. In the famous words of Mark Twain, "If you tell the truth, you don't have to remember anything." Just as you are free to develop your own thoughts and opinions, so is your girlfriend. If your girlfriend and you develop different thoughts and opinions, this is generally OK. Just because your girlfriend has a different opinion than you doesn't necessarily mean that she arrived at that opinion with logic that was faultier than your own. If your girlfriend thinks differently than you in matters of art, politics, or recreation, for instance, the most you can generally do is to listen to her explanation for the way she feels and logically debate her. You may find that your difference of opinion stems from a difference in life experiences; you'll probably find that it's not something to take personally. There are, however, certain types of disagreements you should take seriously - namely, disagreements about the parameters of your relationship. For instance, if you see your relationship as an exclusive, long-term commitment but your girlfriend is looking for something much more low-key, this is  something you'll need to seriously discuss before your relationship can progress. You should also consider how your actions would effect you in reverse, ex .if She went to a guys house at 2 or 3 AM, would you be jealous? One easy, surefire way to demonstrate to your girlfriend...

Honey can help lock in moisture and strengthen your hair. For the best results, you should mix this shampoo up fresh every time you plan to use it. Add 1 part raw honey to 3 parts filtered water in a small bowl, and mix until they are blended.  Raw honey may also be sold as unpasteurized honey. For 1 dose of the shampoo, use 1 tablespoon (21 g) of the honey with 3 tablespoons (44 ml) of the water. Because the honey is so thick, you may have a difficult time mixing it into the water. If you’re having trouble, place the mixture in a small saucepan and warm it over low heat until the honey dissolves into the water. Mixing essential oil into the honey and water mixture can help give it a pleasant scent and provide some moisturization for your scalp. Add 3 to 5 drops of your favorite essential oil for every 1 part of honey that you’re adding, and mix until it’s fully combined.  You can use the essential oil that you think smells the best, but it’s a good idea to choose one that has benefits for the hair. Carrot seed oil is very nourishing for all hair types. Lemon, peppermint, and rosemary oils are good options for oily hair. Lavender, geranium, and sandalwood oils are good options for dry hair. Tea tree oil is a good option if you have issues with an oily or flaky scalp. To shampoo with the honey, wet your hair completely. Massage the honey mixture onto your scalp, making sure not to miss any spots. Use a squeeze bottle to make application easier. It’s not necessary to apply the honey wash directly to the ends of your hair. After you’ve applied the honey wash to your scalp, rinse it out of your hair with cool water. Because the honey is moisturizing, it isn’t necessary to follow up with a conditioner. If you feel like your hair needs some extra conditioning, try using an apple cider vinegar rinse after the honey shampoo.

Hoodies are typically considered to be casual garments, but an easy way to instantly dress them up and add some style is by choosing a dark color like black or dark gray. Dark, plain colors will automatically upgrade the hoodie’s appearance and create a sleeker look. If you pair it with dark denim and basic trainers, you can look both polished and casual.  Try pairing a dark gray hoodie with black skinny jeans. If you find a plain black hoodie to be a bit boring, opt for a dark rich color like maroon or navy. Hoodies have a reputation for un-stylishness for a few reasons, and one of the major ones is because of the sweatshirt material classic hoodies are made of. There’s certainly nothing wrong with this style of hoodie, but if you want it to look fashionable, step things up with a high quality material. Look for hoodies made of high-end materials like pure cotton jersey, brushed cotton and fleece. If you have the extra money to spend, consider a hoodie made of a cashmere-silk blend. If you want your hoodie to look polished, avoid oversized and ill-fitting versions that bunch up around the stomach area. These will create the illusion of a paunch and look sloppy in general. Look for hoodies that have a slim fit to create a sleek, fashionable silhouette. If possible, try a hoodie on before you make a purchase to make sure it fits the way you want it to, especially if you are spending extra money on a high-end fabric.

Hook up one end of an Ethernet cable to the converted port on the other end of the transmitter. Take the other end of the Ethernet cable and plug it into the receiver's converted port. USB extenders are generally able to support distances of up to 164 feet (50 m). The length depends on the length of Ethernet cable that you use. Ethernet cables can transfer data further distances than typical USB cables without having the data transfer deteriorate.

Hope you can take a break from your day job, because you'll need to spend a hefty amount of time making phone calls. But once it's done, it's done! Lock yourself in the living room with a list of phone numbers and get on it.  Confirm reservations. If you're not using an outside venue, skip this. Confirm orders and delivery times. This goes for flowers, friends taking care of pick-ups, food, and equipment. Confirm RSVPs. This is possibly the most important. Call the guest list to make sure your numbers are correct and the bodies you have to help this go off without a hitch. You may think one table is enough for gifts, but 28 blender-sized boxes ends up taking a large amount of room. Consider the guests, the space needed for activities, and how to arrange the flowers, decorations and food. Have the games fully prepared before you go about designating space for them. If you can prepare anything beforehand, do so. You'll need to allot your time masterfully. As the clock ticks, get the other bridesmaids or family members to help you get going. Set up the tables and chairs according to your floor plan. Have everything as ready as possible before the actual time. Once you do, breathe. Is there anything you've forgotten? Take these last hours to run any errands. Has anyone forgotten to bring or pick up anything that they said they would? If a friend is free, can they run the errands for you?

Horses are generally only able to concentrate on one thing at a time, and the object on which they will likely focus when spooked is whatever has them spooked. If you can get the horse's attention away from this object, you will be better able to calm him or her quickly. You may even need to ride a horse in circles to get its attention off of whatever has it spooked. Horses can spook at pretty much anything, be it something in the environment, an unfamiliar object, or really anything. Lateral flexion is a neutral rein position in which you gently pull on one rein to turn the horse's head. This technique helps the horse slow down before stopping, which will help keep the horse from running when it gets spooked—in effect, lateral flexion can help distract the horse from it's own spooked reaction to a stressor. Lateral flexion is sometimes called a relaxation cue, hence its effectiveness in helping to quickly calm a horse.  Lift the reins to feel the horse's mouth through them using one hand, then move your other hand down the rein. Reach until the arm is straight and touching the horse's mane. Place the opposite hand on the horse's neck firmly to keep yourself stable, and begin to close your fingers slowly from the pointer to the pinky, locking the pinky when you finish. The horse should now start to bend to the pressure of the rein, at which point you can begin to move your arm down to your thigh near your knee. The horse should bend at this point until there is slack in the rein and stop. If the horse doesn't stop at this point, push firmly with your stabilizing hand and wait. Release pressure when the feet have stopped. If the horse gets spooked, you can also try simply continuing your ride as though the horse had not been spooked at all. If you have tasks in mind, try to get the horse to focus on those as a distraction. Tasks include training for jumping courses, dressage tests, and more. If you point the horse's nose at whatever is scaring it, but allow it to drift sideways or move backward, you will keep...

Horses can easily develop problems with their feet, especially if they aren't being properly cared for. Make sure that they are being picked daily to get rid of any rocks or objects that might bruise their feet or cause thrush (a bacterial infection). You will also need to get a farrier (a blacksmith) to trim your horse's feet.  For shod horses (ones that have shoes), get their feet trimmed every four to six weeks. For unshod horses, get their feet trimmed every six to eight weeks, or as recommended by your farrier. Keep in mind that some horses' feet will grow faster than others. This is called "floating a horse's teeth." This is incredibly important, because teeth can become sharp and make chewing painful so a horse will refuse to eat. You'll need to have a veterinarian do this to your horse at least once a year. Inspect your horse's mouth frequently so that you don't miss any signs of problems. Check to see if there are any sharp edges. Nasal discharge, coughing, and dropping food out of their mouth can also be signs that there is an oral problem that needs seeing to. You absolutely must have a veterinarian check your horse at least yearly. A vet will do things like give them inoculations (vaccines), de-worm them, and look after their overall health. If you don't get your horse checked out it can lead to bigger problems down the road.  Your horse should get twice a year inoculations for parasite control: influenza, Rhinopneumonitis, eastern and western strains of encephalomyelitis, and tetanus. Additionally, horses are required to have a rabies vaccine in many areas. Have the vet test and deworm horse periodically. Some things you can do to cut down on the probability of worms, or of them spreading: avoid having too many horses on too little land, try to have rotating pastures, and remove feces regularly. It's important to make sure that your pasture is free of anything poisonous to horses. If you're taking your horse out on riding paths, make sure you know what to look out for. If you suspect that your...

Hot flashes can be caused by medical issues outside of menopause, including thyroid issues and anxiety. Visit your doctor to find out what might be causing your hot flashes to help prevent them in the future. Be sure to tell your doctor about any other symptoms you may be experiencing, such as digestive problems or fatigue. Independent of menopause symptoms, a prescription drug may be causing your hot flashes. Ask your doctor if they are a possible symptom of any of your medications. If that is the case, your doctor may be able to prescribe a different medication or adjust the dosage to prevent the problem. Opioids, antidepressants, and some osteoporosis drugs may cause hot flashes. Hormone therapy is only recommended if your hot flashes are severe and you have night sweats that interrupt your sleep, interfering with your daily life. You must be otherwise healthy with no hormone-related health risks. Talk to your doctor about systemic estrogen, which can counteract your drastic shifts in body temperature. You can get estrogen therapy in the form of pills, skin patches, gels, creams, or sprays. These are equally effective and vary only in their application.   If hormones are used, you should take the lowest dose possible for the shortest length of time. The best time to use them is during the 1-2 years after you have your last period. Hormonal therapy should be avoided if you have had breast or uterine cancer, blood clots, liver disease, vaginal bleeding, or if you are pregnant. Side effects of hormonal therapy may include bloating, headaches, mood changes, and nausea. If you are not able to take hormones, your doctor may recommend an antidepressant medication to reduce the intensity of your hot flashes. If this option is not suitable for you, they may suggest a mild dose of an anti-seizure medication to address the problem. Discuss your current medications and possibility of pregnancy with your doctor to help figure out the right option for you. Common side effects of these types of drugs include nausea,...

Hot water is effective at removing stuck on food and stains. You shouldn't put non-stick, cast iron, or aluminum pots and pans in a dish washer. Putting your pots and pans in the dishwasher may scratch and damage them. Mix the soap and water together until the dish soap starts to sud. You can use dish soap on most materials like copper, stainless steel, aluminum, and non-stick pots and pans. Avoid washing cast iron with soap or it may affect the taste of your food. Let hot water and soap sit in the pot or pan for five minutes. Concentrate on spots that have stuck-on food or areas that are particularly dirty. Do not use abrasive sponges or steel wool to clean non-stick or stainless steel pots because you can scratch them. Hold the pot or pan under the faucet until you rinse away all the remaining soap suds. If you don't rinse your pots or pans thoroughly, your food may taste like soap. Rub the inside and outside of the pot or pan with a rag until it's completely dry. You can also dry the pot or pan on a drying rack.

Hot water may cause your hat to shrink as it dries. Lukewarm water is just as effective in getting your hat clean, but does not present the possibility of shrinkage. You can also wash your hat in cold water and achieve the same cleanliness. Make sure your bucket or sink is clean beforehand. About a teaspoon of cleaner is all you need. These 2 types of products are designed for heavy-duty cleaning and stain removal. They will be more effective at getting rid of built up grime in your hat than dish detergent or hand soap, (though these latter 2 cleaners will work if you have nothing else on hand). For best results, mix the cleaner into the water while it runs into the bucket/sink. This procedure is known as “spot cleaning.” Make sure the hat is wet first by dunking it into the bucket/sink. Move the toothbrush in a circular motion and focus on applying detergent directly to the stains. Scrub until the hat has thoroughly absorbed the detergent. Don't scrub the hat too vigorously. The water will do most of the work. Focus on the dirtier areas of the hat, especially those that you may have missed or couldn't remove during the spot cleaning phase. Be careful around the hat's stitching as you wash.

Hot water opens your pores and will loosen hairs that are close to coming out. Take a shower as you normally would, or get a washcloth wet with hot water and press it against your eyebrows for two or three minutes.  If the washcloth gets cold before a few minutes is up, get it hot again. When you’re in a time crunch, this is not absolutely necessary, but when you have time, it helps make the process work better. Take an eyebrow comb (or a clean toothbrush) and comb the hair straight up. Start from the bridge of your nose and move outward until you reach the end of your eyebrow. Use the comb as necessary to hold the hair in that position when you trim the hairs. Look at your eyebrow and notice hairs that stick up higher than the rest of the eyebrow. Start at the outside end of the brow, and cut the long hairs along the top line of your eyebrow. You want to use eyebrow or nail scissors because they are sharper and narrower than standard all-purpose scissors. Never use kitchen scissors, craft scissors, or nail clippers to cut your eyebrows. As a final check on overall eyebrow hair length, comb the hairs straight down so that they point toward the eyelid. Check for hairs that are much longer than the overall length of the eyebrow. Carefully trim those long hairs so that they line up with the rest of the bottom of the eyebrow.

House training a puppy requires consistency. Your puppy will need to go to the bathroom frequently since puppies cannot hold their urine or feces for very long. Take your puppy to the same spot every time to help it associate the spot with eliminating. Take your puppy out to go potty at the following times:  When it wakes up in the morning After it eats When it wakes up from a nap After it has just finished playing Before bedtime Every 20-30 minutes when its awake . At 8 weeks, your puppy will be ready to learn new things. This is a great time to teach it some basic commands, such as sit, stay, and lay down. Use positive reinforcement to teach your puppy these commands, such as by praising your puppy or offering it a treat when it does the desired behavior. You may train your puppy on your own, or complete a training course with your puppy. For example, if you are trying to teach a puppy to sit, use a treat as a lure and hold it up in the air to get your puppy to look up at it. When your puppy’s butt hits the ground, praise and pet your puppy and give it the treat. Then, repeat the activity while saying “sit” as you hold the lure. After a few sessions, your puppy will begin to understand that “sit” means to sit and that it will get praise by doing this. Puppies need to be exposed to lots of different sights and sounds to ensure that they will not be fearful of those things later on. Carry your puppy outside when you introduce it to new sights and sounds. Make sure to keep it on a leash as well so it can explore safely if you set it down. The breeder or shelter should have already started socializing your puppy by handling, exposure to different smells, and toys. Ask the breeder or shelter how they started socializing the puppy so you will know what types of exposure the puppy has already had. Make sure your puppy has many positive experiences with people from all walks of life. This will help to ensure that your puppy does not develop a fear or dislike of certain people, such as children, men, or tall people....

House your American toad in an aquarium or plastic bin that is at least 24 inches (61 cm) long, 12 inches (30 cm) tall, and 12 inches (30 cm) wide. These are the measurements for most standard 15 gallon (56.8 L) aquariums. Purchase an aquarium at a pet store or online.  Be sure to buy an aquarium with a lid that closes securely. Never place the tank in direct sunlight because it will overheat the toad. A substrate is a material placed at the bottom of a cage or tank that that absorbs your pet's waste and allows it to burrow.  Fill the bottom of the aquarium with an organic material such as potting soil, moss, or shredded leaves. You can also purchase special substrates such as ground coconut fiber or forest bark bedding at pet stores.. Avoid using gravel or sand as a substrate as they can be harmful if swallowed by your toad. Toads like having places to hide in their habitat. Find or purchase items that will mimic nature, such as pieces of driftwood, large dried leaves, or pieces of tree bark. You can also add items like flower pots for large, sturdy hiding spots. Most toads will soak in an available water source at night, including their water dish. Choose a water dish that is wide enough to accommodate your toad, but not taller than it.  This water should be changed each morning,  or whenever it looks cloudy.  Amphibians are sensitive to chlorine so avoid using chlorinated municipal tap water. Use bottled water or filtered water.

How long you soak depends on the effect you want. For a more defined acid washed effect, soak the jeans longer. This will strip them of more color. For a mild look, only soak the jeans for about half an hour. Check on the jeans regularly if you're unsure of how long to soak them. Once you see the effect you want forming, you can remove the jeans. Use a cold cycle in the wash. You will want to run two cycles. Run one cycle without detergent, and then another with detergent.  After two wash cycles, hang your jeans to dry. Do not put them in the dryer. You should now have a pair of acid washed jeans.

How much and how often to feed baby turtles is contested by turtle owners and experts. However, it is generally recommended that baby turtles be fed often -- typically once a day -- because they are growing and need the extra vitamins and minerals.  Baby turtles should be fed every day. Afternoons and mornings are ideal feeding times; they are typically most active then and will be more likely to eat the food provided.  While people generally agree that babies should be fed each day, how much food they need is debated. Some people advise feeding babies as much as they will eat while others recommend limiting feeding times to a 15 to 20 minute time period. Talk to your vet about your turtle and ask her for advice on feeding. Refrain from feeding your turtle by hand. If you do, it will associate food with your hands and might become inclined to bite. When dealing with baby turtles, special considerations need to be taken in terms of preparing food.  Turtle pellets should be broken into fourths as a baby turtle's mouth is smaller and you don't want it to choke. Any fruits bigger than a blueberry should be mashed or cut up to prevent choking. Vitamin and calcium supplements are sometimes recommended for young turtles to make sure they're getting adequate nutrition. If you opt to give your turtle supplements, you should do so about three times a week. Baby turtles are sometimes hesitant to eat, especially when first introduced to a tank. This is normal, but should be rectified. There are several approaches to deal with this sort of situation.  Check the water temperature. Turtles will sometimes refrain from eating if the water is too cold or warm. Correct water temperature depends on breed, but generally it is approximately 84 degrees Fahrenheit.  Sometimes, movement can encourage eating. If your baby turtles are disinterested in pellets, live crickets or mealworms might stimulate their appetite.  If the problem persists for more than a few days, seek veterinary care to rule out any health problems.

How often do you wash your hair? If it's every single day, you're actually hurting your hair in the long-term and preventing it from getting thicker. Washing your hair every day removes the natural oils produced by your scalp to protect your hair and keep it healthy.  Washing your hair three to four times a week is a healthier routine. This gives your hair a chance to get the benefits of the oils your scalp produces. Your hair might look a little oily when you first start this new routine, but it should balance out in a week or two. If you feel that your hair needs shampooing more often, try dry shampoo. You can use dry shampoo between regular washings, which can be great for people who sweat a lot or have really oily hair. Wash your hair with cold water. Hot water is hard on the hair, causing it to dry out and get brittle. Washing your hair with cold water helps the hair shaft lie flat, protecting it from breakage and damage. Don't ball it up and wring it out when you get out of the shower - this causes the hair to break. If you want it to grow thick, take care of the hair you have by gently patting it dry with a towel and then letting it finish air-drying. This natural method for drying hair is easy, free, and produces great results. Brushing your hair while it's still wet is yet another way to break it, causing it to thin out. Use a wide-tooth comb to gently work through the tangles. Save the brush for when your hair is dry, since it's less fragile in that state. Do you blow dry your hair every day? It's tempting to go for the sleek, glossy look on a daily basis, but this is one of the best ways to thin out your hair. You're pulling on the roots and heating the shaft, damaging it every time. Instead, let your hair air dry and style it using natural methods.  Save the curling iron, blow dryer, and hot rollers for special occasions only.     To curl your hair without using heat, try the t-shirt method. To use the t-shirt method, cut a t-shirt into fabric strips ranging in size. A good size to start with...

How the clothes make you feel should be your main focus when choosing clothes, because confidence will make you look better in just about any outfit. Make sure that you pick out clothing in colors that you love and want to wear.  For example, if your favorite color is blue, then pick clothing in different shades of blue that you like. You may want to steer clear of neon colors because they can bring out imperfections in your skin. You can use color to accentuate the top or bottom section of your body and minimize the appearance of the other section. If you are bottom-heavy, try wearing a dark colored bottom with a light or bold color top. If you are top-heavy, pair a light or bold colored bottom with a dark colored top.  For example, you could balance a bigger bottom by wearing a pair of black leggings or an indigo pencil skirt with a magenta blouse or Kelly green sweater on your top half. Balance out a larger top half with a navy blue blazer or black t-shirt and a pair of white capris or a yellow skirt. Big bold prints can overwhelm a larger frame, so steer clear of these if you are plus sized. Instead, look for clothing that has small, simple prints. Some good options include:  Small polka dots Tiny flowers Fine vertical stripes Gingham

How you attach the handle to your storm door will vary according to the type of handle provided by the manufacturer.   As a result, you will need to refer to the manufacturer's guide for specific instructions on how to install it. On a more general note, make sure that the handle of the storm door will not hit against the handle of the entry door when the door is closed. If it does, you will need to reposition the handle. The expander sweep is used to close up the gap between the threshold and the bottom of the storm door.  If it's not already attached, slide the black strip of rubber (weather stripping) onto the track, then cut off any excess. Use your pliers to pinch the ends into place. Slide the expander sweep onto the bottom of the storm door, then get inside and close the door behind you. Adjust the sweep until it closes as much of the gap beneath the door as possible --this will provide a tighter seal, keeping rainwater out. Pre-drill two holes, then secure the expander sweep with a screw on either side. Attach the closer mechanism to the inside of the storm door, following the manufacturer's instructions.  Some storm door kits will provide two closer mechanisms -- one for the bottom and one for the top of the door. To adjust the speed of the closing mechanism, you can loosen or tighten a specific screw at the top of the closers. Test the speed by opening the door and allowing it to close on its own. The last step is to install the striker plate. A good tip for getting the alignment just right is to open the storm door and twist the lock.   Now carefully close the door until the protruding lock hits the frame. Use a pencil to mark the points where the top and bottom of the lock hit the frame. Open the door, and use your pencil to extend these pencil marks into straight, horizontal lines which wrap around the frame. Take your striker plate and use these pencil lines to position it correctly. Secure the striker plate in place with a number of screws, then close the storm door. Make any necessary adjustments.
