Any wood surface can be wood burned. However, some are better than others. Light-colored and soft wood, such as bass, works especially well. This is because the wood burning stands out on the light color and you don't have to push very hard to make your marks. Woods with minimal grain also work best for wood burning. The grain of wood can cause the lines of wood burning to be bumpy and less precise. Wood with little grain allows you to draw smoother, more precise lines. When wood burning you should begin with a smooth, sanded surface. While it is possible to wood burn a rough surface, wood burning that is done on a smooth surface will be easier to complete and the design will come out more neat and clear in the end. Sand off any coatings that are on the surface you will be wood burning. Burning through paint or stain can create a lot of toxic smoke that is not good to breathe in. The easiest way to get your design onto your wood is to draw it right on with a pencil. This can be done freehand or by using a template or stencil to get a more exact design. It's also possible to freehand your letters with the wood burner. However, when beginning wood burning it is easier to have a pattern on the wood to follow. Make a design on paper or on a computer and transfer it onto your wood surface. Begin by drawing the design on a piece of paper or by creating on a computer and then printing it out. Then place a piece of carbon paper on the wood and set the paper with the design on top of the carbon paper. By taking a pencil or stylus and tracing your design, you will transfer the design onto the surface of the wood. When placing the carbon paper on your wood, make sure the the carbon side of the paper is facing the wood. The side facing up is typically shiny in comparison. There is a technique in which you can transfer photocopied images onto wood using your wood burning iron. Buy an image transfer tip for your iron, which are sold specifically for this technique. Simply place the paper with the image on it face down on...

Anyone can get a DVT, but some people are at a higher risk than others. People at a higher risk of DVT include those who are: Hospitalized or who have recently had surgery. Immobile. Elderly. Overweight or obese. Have a family history of blood clots. Have had recent or recurring cancer. Are pregnant or recently had a baby. Taking hormonal birth control or hormone replacement medication. Have recently been injured. An ultrasound (or ultrasonography) is an imaging technique that uses sound waves to examine how blood flows through your veins.  Ultrasounds are the most common tests used to diagnose DVT.   This non-invasive test can provide your doctor with real-time images of the inner workings of your veins and organs, which can help determine the severity of your DVT and provide a potential course of treatment.  Your doctor might suggest a related technique, a duplex ultrasonography (or duplex ultrasounds).  Duplex ultrasonography is similar to the regular ultrasound, but it monitors movement of blood and other internal objects and fluids.  Duplex ultrasounds can provide more accurate information about the speed and flow of blood.  Your doctor will help you schedule an appointment with a sonographer in a vascular laboratory if they believe you should get this test, usually at a large hospital with the necessary sonography equipment. During the test, a technician will simply apply a thin layer of gel to your legs and/or feet, then wave an ultrasound wand over them.  You might also need to wear a blood pressure cuff. The D-dimer test examines a blood sample for small pieces of clotted blood that may have broken off.  If your physician detects a large number of these clot fragments, there’s a greater likelihood that you have DVT. Contrast venography involves getting a dye injected into a large vein in the foot or ankle, then taking an X-ray or series of X-rays over time.  The X-rays will reveal how your veins are transmitting the blood throughout the body.  If there are any clots, they will appear on the X-rays as...

Apple cider vinegar has long been used as a treatment for bacterial vaginosis. Help soothe symptoms of BV by adding half a cup (about 118 ml) of apple cider vinegar to a hot bath and allowing your lower body to soak for at least 10 minutes.  Vinegar can be drying and harsh on the skin, so it is advisable to try this treatment just once a day. You can also drink small amounts of apple cider vinegar to help maintain the proper pH for your vagina. If you feel any stinging or burning around your labia from the vinegar, drain the bath immediately and rinse your lower body with clean, warm water. Do not insert vinegar directly into your vagina. Some research suggests that the probiotics in yogurt, when used topically, can help restore the natural balance of the vagina. Use clean fingers to apply a plain, unflavored yogurt topically to your labia to help treat symptoms like itching. To treat symptoms inside your vagina, soak a tampon in plain, unflavored yogurt for five to ten minutes, then insert it into your vagina for up to an hour.  If possible, use a hand-held shower head to rinse off the yogurt. Otherwise, wash your vagina with warm water using whatever method you normally use to wash it. Repeat topical application or the tampon treatment as necessary when you feel symptoms including pain or itching. Yogurt may cause itching or burning around your vagina. If this occurs, stop the treatment. Rinse off the yogurt. Do not leave yogurt-soaked tampons in overnight. While medical research is still ongoing, garlic is thought to be a strong, natural antibacterial. You may be able to treat BV by using garlic directly in your vagina. That said, this remedy is largely untested. You may do it at your own risk. To do this:  Peel a clove of garlic and make a small cut anywhere on the clove with a knife. Wrap the clove in a single layer of sterile gauze. Tie the gauze closed with a piece of undyed string or unflavored dental floss, leaving enough length to comfortably remove the garlic afterward. Insert the garlic into the...

Apple cider vinegar is an old home remedy used to to remove all sorts of skin blemished, including warts. The vinegar contains citric acid and also a high percentage of acetic acid, which is an antiviral (it kills HPV and some other viruses). However, citric and acetic acids can also irritate healthy skin, so be careful when applying it to your hand wart. Try soaking a cotton ball or Q-tip in vinegar and then applying it directly on top of the wart, then cover it with a bandage overnight. After about a week of daily treatment, the wart should turn darker and then fall off. New skin will soon grow in its place.  Apple cider vinegar may cause mild burning or swelling in the skin around the hand wart initially, but it usually goes away quickly. Another potential downside to using apple cider vinegar is that it smells bad to most people. White vinegar consists of acetic acid also, but it doesn't seem to have the impact on warts that apple cider vinegar does. Garlic is another old home remedy that's used for many conditions. It contains a compound called allicin, which is a strong antimicrobial that can kill a variety of microorganisms, including HPV. In a 2005 study, an extract of garlic was discovered to completely cure warts after a few weeks and there was no reappearance many months later. Raw, crushed garlic or store-bought extracts can be applied directly onto your hand wart a few times daily for 1-2 weeks. Once you apply it, cover it with a bandage for a few hours until you decide to reapply more. For best results, apply the garlic just before bedtime so the allicin can absorb deep into the wart.  Like the application of apple cider vinegar, using garlic on warts may cause mild burning or swelling in the skin around your hand wart, but it usually fades away. And obviously, it also has a strong odor. As a less-effective alternative, you can take capsules of refined garlic orally (by mouth), which attacks HPV from your bloodstream. Thuja oil is made from leaves and roots of Western Red Cedars. It's an old...

Apples and pears are crunchy and can help to loosen up a tooth. Have apple or pear slices. Try biting into an apple to make the tooth more loose. Do not try to drag the apple or pear against the tooth to help loosen it. This could damage the tooth and the gum area. Instead, bite and chew the apple or pear to loosen the tooth. Another good crunchy food for loosening a tooth is corn on the cob. Bite into corn on the cob to help loosen your tooth from the socket. Soft but crunchy foods like bread or a bagel are also a good option for loosening a tooth. Bagels in particular are just soft enough to loosen your tooth without damaging it. Toast the bread or the bagel so it is crunchy and can help to loosen the tooth.

Apply a cold compress when an accident occurs. This will help to bring down any swelling, minimize discoloration, and help with pain. The dark color of bruises is caused by blood leaking out of burst blood vessels. Applying a cold compress helps to constrict the blood vessel and minimize the amount of blood that leaks out, which reduces discoloration. To make a cold compress, use an ice pack, a couple of ice cubes wrapped in a towel or rag, or even a bag of frozen vegetables wrapped in a clean towel. Do not apply the cold compress directly to your skin; you should always wrap it in a towel or cloth to protect your skin from damage. Hold the compress against the bruised area for 10 minutes, then give your skin a break for 20 minutes before reapplying. Do this several times a day, up to 60 minutes of cold compress application daily. As soon after your injury as possible, take a seat and try to elevate the bruised body part above heart level. Elevating the injured body part helps to reduce blood flow to the bruise, which minimizes discoloration. If the bruise is on your leg, try propping it up on the back of a chair or rest it on a stack of pillows. If the bruise is on your arm, try resting it on an arm rest or the back of the sofa. Arnica is a plant belonging to the sunflower family whose extract is used to reduce the inflammation and swelling associated with bruises and sprains. There is some evidence that it may help reduce the appearance of bruising, however the evidence is inconclusive.  Arnica is available in gel, ointment, and cream form at most health food stores. Just rub a little on the bruise according to the instructions on the packaging. It is also available in pill form, which can be taken by mouth daily to help with bruising. Severe bruising can be painful, especially when the bruise is fresh. You can relieve the pain and tenderness by taking certain pain medications, such as acetaminophen (Tylenol) or NSAIDs, which can help with swelling. Be aware, however, that NSAIDs like Motrin can actually...

Apply fresh lemon juice to the stain and sprinkle salt over top. Let the linens sit in the sun for several hours before washing. Check on it periodically to make sure the stain is beginning to fade. If it is not, add more juice and salt.   Be careful on bright, sunny days because the sun could lighten your linen items very quickly. Set a timer to check on the progress so that you don't end up with splotchy fabric. For difficult stains, repeat this process several times. Wash the fabric in between repetitions. For large stains or dingy white tablecloths for example, combine lemon juice and dissolved salt in a spray bottle and lightly spray the whole thing. Let it sit in the sun laid out flat so that the effect is uniform. Make a baking soda paste with 4 tablespoons (59.1 ml) of baking soda mixed with equal amounts water. Mix and apply gently so you don't rub the paste into the stain. After the paste has dried and sat for about 15 to 30 minutes, scrape off any excess paste before washing the linens normally. Oils stains are some of the most difficult to get out of fabrics. Sprinkle cornstarch on the stain and waiting 15 minutes for it to set. Then, scrape the starch off. Wash the linens in a sink bath with some dish washing soap or in the washing machine at a gentle cycle.  Don't coat the stain in too much cornstarch. You only need a small coating to absorb the stain. You can reapply another coat after the first one if the stain persists. If you need to rinse the cornstarch out, use cool water to keep the stain from sticking around.

Apply the deep conditioner to damp hair, then tuck your hair under a shower cap. Leave it there for 20 to 30 minutes before rinsing it out.  Heating caps can be used to boost the performance of the deep conditioner. If you do not have a heating cap, tuck your hair under a plastic shower cap, then drape a towel over your head, like a hood. Use a blow dryer to heat the inside and outside of the towel. The leave-in conditioner will moisturize your hair, and the oil will help "seal" the moisture in. Make sure to cover all your hair with the leave-in and oil.  You can use just about any natural oil, including: Argan, almond, castor, coconut, jojoba, and olive. You can also use natural butters, such as shea butter. Heat ½ to 1 cup (120 to 240 milliliters) of oil in a double boiler, then apply it to your hair. Tuck your hair under a shower cap for about 20 minutes, then rinse it out with shampoo. You can use any type of natural oil, such as: Argan, avocado, castor, coconut, jojoba, and olive.  Don't use a microwave, or you'll destroy the oil's nutrients. Warm oil is easier for hair to absorb than room-temperature oil. Apply some leave-in conditioner, oil (such as coconut oil), and setting cream to your hair, then twist it. Cover your hair with a scarf or bonnet, and fluff it out the next day. On the third or fourth night, you can re-twist your hair. Spritz your hair with water to re-activate the leave-in conditioner, and reapply the oil and cream. Use a little bit less product than the first time, since the same products are already in your hair from before. If you have finer hair, you can use it as often as once a week. You can use either a store-bought protein mask, or make your own. Consider massaging egg whites into your hair and letting it sit for ten minutes under a shower cap. Wash it out with cool water, not hot. Egg white contains vitamins which will make your hair healthy and strong. These are the oldest parts of your hair, and need the most moisture.

Apply the paste to both the sides and bottom of the tub. Then let the paste set for 30 minutes.Depending on how dirty your tub is, you may need to let the paste set for a longer amount of time, like an hour or so. Do this once the paste has set for the allotted time. Use a nylon brush to scrub the paste off to avoid scratching your tub. Using a bucket or a showerhead, make sure to rinse it thoroughly until the residue is gone. Then dry your tub with a clean towel. Dip a cotton ball or a clean, white cloth in the nail polish remover. Gently rub the tough stains individually until they are gone. Wipe the areas with a clean, wet cloth, and then dry them with a clean towel.  Alternatively, you can use turpentine to remove tough stains. Because these solvents are highly flammable, do not use them near open flames or heat, and make sure the area is well-ventilated.

Applying cold packs can work wonders when you want to relieve itchy skin. Temperature sensations travel along the same path to your brain as the itching sensation. Hold the cold compress on the affected area until you feel relief. You can also take cold showers to relieve itch. However, keep in mind that diabetics are discouraged from showering too frequently, particularly if you have poor control of your glucose levels.  Therefore, it’s better to stick with cold compresses for the most part. Mix ¼ cup water with 1 cup of colloidal oatmeal and stir it into a thick paste. Apply this mixture to the affected area. Keep the mixture on that section of your body for 15 minutes. The oatmeal will soothe the itching and provide you with temporary relief. You can also apply a paste made by adding a half-cup of water to one cup of baking powder. Stir with a spoon until the paste is thoroughly mixed and smooth. Apply the mixture to the affected area and keep it there for 15 minutes, then wash it off.

Applying ice to your tailbone may help to relieve pain and reduce inflammation. For the first 48 hours after an injury to your tailbone, you can apply ice once per hour that you are awake. Apply a towel wrapped ice pack to your tailbone for 20 minutes at a time. After 48 hours you may apply ice for comfort, three times daily in the same manner. Take non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS) to reduce pain and swelling. These over-the-counter (OTC) products, such as ibuprofen or acetaminophen, can be purchased at any pharmacy or drugstore. Take 600 mg of ibuprofen every eight hours, or take 500 mg of acetaminophen every 4 hours. Do not exceed 3500 mg of acetaminophen in a 24-hour period. Poor posture may be contributing to your tailbone pain. Try to sit upright, with your core engaged, your neck straight, and your back slightly arched. If you get a sharp pain when getting up from a sitting position, lean forward and arch your back before rising. Special cushions, with a section cut out underneath the tailbone, are designed especially for patients with tailbone pain. This may help relieve some of the pain associated with sitting down.     It is possible to make your own cushion from a piece of foam rubber.  Just cut out a hole in the center so it is shaped like a toilet seat. Cushions shaped like a doughnut are not found helpful by most patients, as they are designed to relieve pressure on the genitals rather than the tailbone. Talk to your doctor about use of a wedge-shaped pillow. Studies show that applying heat to the tailbone area may decrease pain. Use a heating pad up to 4 times per day for 20 minutes each time. Try a warm compress or hot bath if you do not have a heating pad. If it turns out that you have a tailbone fracture, there is no cast that can be placed on the tailbone. You will just have to rest and avoid any strenuous activities for about eight to 12 weeks. If you have a physical job, you may need to arrange to take some time off from work while your body heals.

Approach people you’re interested in conversing with and simply say hello.  Offer your name, and ask theirs. While it may feel awkward to start a conversation without an explicit reason for doing so, people are usually happy to be approached in a friendly manner.  If you’re in a group and hope to speak with one person in particular, don’t feel rushed to do so. Just sitting, listening, and enjoying one another’s company is a great way to become comfortable around other people. Wait for a moment to introduce yourself unobtrusively. Remember, silence is a form of communication. Even in social settings, a comfortable silence indicates confidence and contentment that people will respond to positively. In a group setting, ask each person that you haven’t already met for their name. This indicates a general friendliness that will convey to others that you're social and accessible. People like to talk about what they’re interested in, and questions that are geared accordingly can be great conversation starters.  Make sure to bring up some topics that you are interested in as well, such as your hobbies and interests, so that you can have a quality 2-way conversation. There are plenty of specific options.  Ask the person you’re curious about what they do for fun.  Not only does this get a conversation going, it shows that you’re curious about what they’re interested in and how they spend their time. Ask them what they do with their life, but don't be specific. Say something like, “So, what do you do with your days?” This allows people to answer however they want. If you’re looking for a particularly interesting question, try asking them about a recent quote they came across that changed how they viewed the world. Refrain from talking about your radical political or religious beliefs as soon as you meet someone.  Deeply personal topics should also be avoided, as well as private information.

Aquarium plants are the most common source of unwanted snails. They often harbor eggs or baby snails, which then reproduce once they’re in your tank. Fortunately, you can avoid putting infected plants into your aquarium by quarantining them for 2 weeks before putting them in your tank. If you see any snails during the quarantine period, pick them off the plant as soon as you notice them. Create your bleach solution by adding 1 part bleach to 19 parts water. Then, dip each individual plant into the solution and immediately withdraw it. This will kill any lingering snails or eggs. Rinse the plant in fresh water before putting it in your aquarium. You only need to submerge the plant in the solution for a second for it to work, so it's okay to just dip and remove the plant in one motion. , including removing the gravel. You can purge all of the snails by hand if you have the time. Move your fish to a temporary tank, then empty the water from the aquarium. Remove everything, including the gravel and substrate, from the tank, then scrub all of the snails from the sides of the tank.  Replace your gravel and substrate for best results. Before you put your plants and other fixtures back in the aquarium, clean them. One way to do this is to dip them in a cleaning solution that’s 19 parts water and 1 part bleach. This will kill any snails or eggs that are on them. If you don’t want to take everything out of the tank, you can use a siphon to suck out just the gravel and substrate. Additionally, you’ll need to pick the snails off the sides of the tank. Some fish eat snails and can clear out your tank for you. When selecting a predator fish, check its fact sheet to make sure it won’t eat your other fish. Additionally, make sure it’s not too big for your tank.  For a small fish tank, you might choose a zebra or dwarf chain loach. If you have a large fish tank, you can choose a clown loach, pictus catfish, koi, or large goldfish.  As an alternative, you might place an assassin snail into your tank. It will enjoy eating the...

Archery has a diverse range of options, from hunting to riding on horseback shooting at moving targets. Before you get into advanced shooting, you need to perfect your stance, get comfortable with gripping and drawing the bow, and become accurate at aiming. Another good skill is learning to account for wind or other weather.  Once you have learned the basics, you will probably practice without a teacher most of the time, but it’s good to check back in with an instructor after you’ve been shooting a while. They can watch you shoot and make sure you are maintaining proper form. Don’t get discouraged if you don’t start hitting bullseyes right at the beginning. Archery is a discipline and it can take years to become an expert shooter. Holding your breath during a shot is a common mistake made by beginners. What this does is reduce oxygen to your brain and also can affect your vision. Take slow, normal breaths that keep you calm but don’t cut off your oxygen.  Since archery is a calm sport, maintaining even breathing will keep you calm from start to finish of the shot. A good practice is to exhale as you release the string, so that your breath and the arrow are in unison. Practicing in your own backyard, or the woods near your house, is fine as long as you know any local restrictions and practice safely. Be sure that other people are not around, or that you specifically warn them before you begin shooting.  Never shoot toward your house, or toward any area where people may be. It may be wise to find out if any home or life insurance policy you have has stipulations about shooting. For home practice, you can construct homemade targets from bales of hay or cardboard boxes. You can purchase targets at most sporting goods stores, hunting stores, or farm stores. If you want to start archery as a casual hobby that you pick up once in awhile, that’s fine, but don’t expect to improve much. Becoming a proficient archer takes consistent practice. If you can’t practice everyday, set a goal to practice a few times a week. ...

Are you afraid to get a bad grade? Do you think you may embarrass yourself in front of your crush? Once you identify these thoughts, try to find reasons why they are not true.  For example, when you think, "I am going to make a fool out of myself in front of my friends," try thinking something more positive such as, "I am going to be so prepared that I will sound smart enough to impress all of my friends." Remember, fear of public speaking is very common. You are not alone in your fear, and there will be plenty of resources to help you figure things out. Talk to a respectful friend or an adult who has public speaking skills that you want to emulate. Ask them how they handle big presentations and what they would do in your situation. Talk about how they prepare and how they stay on track while they speak.  If the person is someone you can easily talk to or trust, ask them to be your practice audience. If your campus has a speech and debate club or organization, you can ask to come observe one of their meetings, and talk to a couple members about how they cope. You can practicing public speaking every day, even when you don't have an assignment. Challenge yourself to do one thing that makes you uncomfortable each day, like raising your hand in class, talking to a classmate you don't know well, or ordering food over the phone instead of online. Then, use these challenges as a chance to practice your public speaking skills. If you know that you tend to talk fast, for example, use your daily challenge as an opportunity to practice speaking slower and enunciating. If you know you are quiet when you speak, practice speaking louder. When you're nervous about speaking, it can cause you to focus on what you think will go wrong. Any time you notice that happening, try as hard as you can to fight back by thinking about a successful outcome. Think about the best ending possible to your speech, whether it's an A on your assignment or a standing ovation. This may feel silly at first, but the more you visualize your own...

Are you and your fiancee able to take the time off work? Have you left enough time to organize everything? Do your family and friends already have any important commitments? Is your chosen venue free on a given day? If not: is the date more important, or the venue? Talk to your partner, find out which season they like best, and compromise from there. The wedding is about the bride and the groom, not just one or the other. Both parties involved need to enjoy the occasion to ensure happy memories.  If he likes winter and you like summer, you might compromise for either spring or fall. Consider conceding to have the wedding in the winter, but agreeing that you get to choose the location. Perhaps there is a location that is warmer than average in the winter or colder than average in the summer. If you want an outdoor ceremony and he wants it in a church, opt to have the ceremony in the church, but have the celebration afterwards in the church garden or other outdoor venue that you like. Do they have any commitments or conflicts that will rule out certain weekends? Naturally, the date you choose won't be perfect for everyone. At the very least, be sure that all of your immediate family and other important "VIPs" will be available to attend. If any important people cannot make it on certain days, consider ruling out those times.  If you want to book your wedding near or on a major holiday, take into consideration that people might find it difficult to come to your wedding. For example if you want a wedding near Christmas, lots of people will already have made commitments. If all of your friends are into football, try not to set your wedding on Superbowl Sunday and make them choose.  Consider the cultures of your guests. Some religions have certain days during which they are required to fast (Ash Wednesday and Good Friday for Catholics or Ramadan for Muslims, for example). If you know you will be having guests with required fast days, having your wedding on one of these fasting days will make your guests feel...

Are you bothered by the person’s behavior because it reminds you of something you don’t like about yourself? Do they talk about things that bother you, but that you don’t want to speak up about? Taking a good hard look at the real reason for your disdain may help you learn to deal with it better.  The next time you're in the presence of the toxic coworker, observe what they do and what goes on in your head. Take some notes. Later, review what you observed and see if you can find any personal impact. For example, maybe this person makes hideous comments that you would never say aloud. However, you do think these comments in your head. You may be upset because this person doesn't know to keep such comments to themselves, or you might be envious because you would never dare speak them aloud. You don’t want to turn into that toxic co-worker you can’t stand. A good way to stop that from happening is to find out how they got there. You may be able to prevent that by putting yourself in their shoes. Taking a look at something through their eyes may shed some light onto the situation.  For instance, reflect on your own attitudes and think about how you’re acting towards them. Think about how you are perceived by them, especially if it is you that they often lash out at. Is it something you are doing unconsciously? If so, change your ways and they may change theirs. You may also stop yourself from becoming so negative, as well.  Try to learn whatever you can from the situation and view it as an opportunity for growth. This may help to make the situation into something positive. Keep yourself busy and try not to pay attention to what they’re doing. Try not to give yourself any downtime. Doing so can stop you from engaging with them and give you an excuse if they attempt to engage with you. For instance, if they walk into your office or desk and attempt to have a conversation, you could say, “I’m sorry. I don’t have time to talk. I really need to get this work done.” You’re not lying and it sends a message. Sometimes...

Are you in search of guidance?  Personal growth?  Enlightenment? A room lit only by candlelight will provide a quiet, meditative space.  A room bathed in moonlight will also bring you peace and give your projection experience an ethereal quality. Some people like to lie down; others prefer to simply recline in a wide-backed chair or sofa. Try to use an image that has a variety of elements and a high level of detail.  If you don't have a good image, or wish to explore an a temporal world, you can simply envision the place you wish to go.  You can also achieve astral projection by envisioning your body lying prone, then “zooming out” from the perspective of a balloon rising higher and higher. Gaze at your chosen image at least thirty minutes.  Let your eye wander over each object or element of the image in a slow, repetitive cycle. This is a short phrase you can use to focus your thoughts and energy.  For instance, you might chant "I am present in the moment." You can chant out loud at first, but wind down towards a silent chant. Picture yourself in the time or place you wish to explore, or visiting the individual you want to contact. One tried and true method is to envision yourself falling down into your physical body again.  You could also simply envision your physical body in the place you left it and recognize your desire to return to it.

Are you most concerned with wrinkles and fine lines? Discoloration? Toning down shine on oily skin? There are tons of primers on the market, so take the time to examine your skin and think about what will work best for you. Check the labels or research online to find the primer that will fit your unique needs.  If you are worried about enlarged pores or wrinkles, search for pore-reducing and anti-aging primers. Primer should always be used if you are going to airbrush your makeup. Primers have different ingredients, weights, and textures that will work better with different skin types. If you're not sure what kind of skin you have, wash your face with a gentle cleanser and let it air dry. How does your skin feel after 15-20 minutes?  If your face feels moist or oily, you have oily skin. Try a mattifying primer to tone down shine and soak up the oil. Primers with salicylic acid also absorb excess oil.  If your skin feels tight or dry, you have dry skin. Look for a gel-based or illuminating primer that won't dry out your skin.  If your skin feels soft and clean, you have normal skin. Experiment with different primers to see what feels best and gives you the effect you want. You want to choose a primer that has the same base as your foundation so they don't repel each other. Also pay attention to whether or not the foundation has silicone, as this can sometimes interact poorly with oil-based foundations  and make them appear spotty.  When trying out a primer, ask for a sample first and try some on your hand. Once it is dry, apply a little of your foundation. If the foundation goes on smoothly, then you know your foundation and primer can work together.  Patch-test any silicone-based primers before putting them on your entire face--some people with sensitive skin have allergic reactions to silicone.

Are you on the fence about telling someone about your sibling's suicidal comments because you are not quite sure if they are legitimate? Remember, all suicidal threats are serious. Look for these and other signs that indicate suicidal behavior:  Showing no hope for the future Talking about death frequently Giving away possessions Feeling like a burden to others Withdrawing from friends or family Neglecting personal responsibilities (e.g. work, school, or extracurriculars) Making visits to loved ones or acting as if he is saying goodbye Seeking out means to cause harm (e.g. weapons or pills) Acting recklessly; using drugs or alcohol; practicing unsafe sex If your sibling is showing signs of being in an acute crisis, meaning they seem likely to harm themselves, tell them you will stay with them. Then, follow through. If you need to go away, assign another family member to be with them. Never leave them alone. Take note: if your sibling requires constant watch to prevent suicide, they should probably be under medical and psychiatric care in a hospital. To prevent your sibling from taking their life, you and your family should remove all items which can be used fatally from the home. These may include knives, razors, firearms, and pills. If your sibling is in an acute crisis and seriously contemplating suicide, you and your family need to get them to the nearest hospital as soon as possible. If, for some reason, you cannot get them to the emergency room, call 911 or your local emergency number. If an acute suicidal situation is occurring after your sibling has established a relationship with a counselor or therapist, call this professional to make them aware of the circumstances. Likely, this person will want to come to the hospital to talk to the doctors there.

Are you used to sleeping in a full set of pajamas? Even if you normally wear a t-shirt to bed, you might need a night or two to adjust before sleeping fully nude. Going straight from fully clothed to naked might disrupt your sleep at first. Plan to wear just your underwear (no bra) at first to see how it feels.  Sleeping in just your underwear provides some of the benefits of sleeping naked. More of your skin is exposed to the air, and this circulation helps promote clearer skin. However, having underwear on will still cause your body to rely on that extra layer to help regulate heat. The parts of your body covered by underwear won't receive healthy air circulation. That's why it's worth giving nude sleeping a chance. Sleeping naked is healthy because it allows your skin to be free of constrictive clothing for a good seven to eight hours. Choose fabrics made from natural materials, preferably cotton, so that the air in your bedroom can circulate through to your body.  Using polyester and other synthetic materials isn't as healthy for your skin. The fabrics may keep you too warm or block the air, negating the positive effects of sleeping naked. If you're really concerned about having the healthiest night's sleep possible, choose sheets made with organic fibers. That way your naked skin won't be exposed to any chemicals. Many people complain that it's too cold to sleep naked during the winter. This can easily be remedied by using the proper bedclothes for the season. If you have a good down comforter, your body will adjust to the environment and stay nice and warm without the need for pajamas. In the summer, a sheet and a thin cotton blanket might be all you need to stay comfortable.  It helps to have a good collection of quilts or thin cotton blankets you can keep in your bedroom. That way you can add or subtract layers depending on your needs. Using a top sheet all year round is helpful. You can kick off your blanket if you need to and still have a sheet to keep you from feeling completely exposed. You may...

Arm knitting requires no needles or other equipment, just some yarn and your own two arms. However, it is important to choose yarn that will be bulky enough to complete your project. One option is to purchase yarn that is super bulky and meant for arm knitting. You can find this type of yarn in a craft store.  If you can’t find super bulky yarn, then you can also use three strands of bulky yarn held together to arm knit your blanket.  The amount of yarn you will need will depend on how large you want your blanket to be. Plan on needing at least a three skeins of super bulky yarn to complete this project. If you are going to hold together three strands from three bulky skeins to knit your blanket, then you will need at least nine skeins of bulky yarn. To begin casting on, pull about five feet of yarn out of the skein. This is the tail of your yarn, which you will use to cast on your first row of stitches. Allow the yarn to drop onto your lap or onto the floor beside you. Five feet is enough to cast on about 18 stitches for a small blanket. If you want to make a large blanket, then pull out a bit more, like six or seven feet of yarn. Start by making a slipknot with some of the yarn from the five foot length of yarn you pulled out. Start near the skein and work downwards. To make a slipknot, make a loop in the yarn and then pull a second loop of yarn through this loop. Then, slip this loop onto your right arm. This will be your first cast on stitch.   Continue to loop the yarn and pull loops through to create more cast on stitches. Slip these stitches onto your arm as you go. Continue casting on until you have at least 18 stitches on your arm. This will make a small blanket or throw. If you want a larger blanket, then try casting on 24 to 30 stitches.

Arms are often the most coveted upper body muscles, as strong arms are generally considered attractive. More importantly, you need you strong arms to handle almost all upper body lifts.   Biceps: The classic “flexing” muscle, your are biceps located between your elbow and shoulder on the inside of your arm. They are used to curl your arm towards itself.  Forearms: Located between your wrist and elbow. Often overlooked, your forearm is a major part of your hand and wrist strength. Rest your elbow on you thigh with your forearm between your legs. Your arm will be bet at a 90-degree angle. Pick up a comfortable dumbbell, the one-handed weights, and hold it so that your palm faces upward and your arm can bend freely at the elbow. Slowly curl the weight up towards your shoulder. Lower it slowly until your arm is bent at a 90-degree angle, then repeat for 3 sets of 10-15 reps. Use a two-handed barbell instead of dumbbells to work out both biceps at once. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and elbows at ninety degrees. Slowly curl the barbell up to your chest with both arms and then return it to your starting position. Repeat for 10-15 reps. Rest your forearm on a bench across your lap with your wrist hanging freely over the edge and your palm facing upwards. Pick up a small weight, usually between 5 and 10 lbs. Using only your wrist, curl the weight towards your body and then slowly place it back down, doing 15-20 reps with each arm. Try this exercise with your palm facing down to work slightly different forearm muscles. Your forearm, which controls a lot of your gripping power, will help with most lifts because you need to hold onto heavy weights. Your biceps come into play in a lot of exercises, most prominently during pull-ups or chin-ups.

Art galleries host events to show off new artists' artwork that can help you get your name into the art world.  Local galleries enjoy loyal and steady art lovers, making them ideal places to build a following.  Even if you don't grab the attention of important art folk, you'll be spreading your name to those who may know said important art folk.  These galleries also tend to have an established network of art promoters who love to support budding artists.  Because they are often small, they tend to pay special attention to individual artists.  They also will focus on bringing in interested collectors, practically advertising your work for you.  While galleries are great, know that you aren't limited to them to showcase your work.  Cafes, office lobbies, schools, and other places of business often host mini exhibitions from local talent.  This is a great way of exposing your art to casual art fans; remember, not everyone goes to art galleries, but they do grab the occasional coffee. You'll most likely have to share a portion of the profit with the gallery.  They are helping market your name, which does come with a price.  Don't worry; this is a small price to pay for getting to share your work. Showing support to your peers may prove invaluable when the time comes to host your own exhibit.  It will also expose you to unique business opportunities and information.  When selling your art, remember it's all about who you know.  Most cities have a local art council who promote and manage art events and exhibitions.  These councils are known to give out funding to local talent, asking artists to partake in community projects or other such tasks.  Your arts community may also have a website that posts regular job opportunities or small-scale commissions.  They may also promote local exhibitions and shows.  Stay current with these local channels to find lucrative opportunities. Aside from art lovers and promoters, some businesses also love to be seen supporting the arts.  It's not uncommon for artists to be brought...

Art museums typically have informational plaques next to each work that will provide basic information about the piece. Knowing when a piece of artwork was created can help you appreciate the difficulty involved in making it. For instance, landscape paintings produced before the rise of photography (which began to include landscapes around 1860) were definitely more challenging to do! A medium refers to the material used to create a piece of art. The type of material used affects how the artist made the piece. If you can’t tell which medium was used, museums or galleries will often state the medium of an artwork on informational plaques.  Oil and acrylic paints are examples of media for painters, while bronze and marble are media for sculptors. With the rise of modern art, media has expanded to include not just types of paint and stone, but also materials like found/appropriated objects or even bodily excretions. This has led to the creation of the term “mixed-media,” which is used when talking about an art piece made from a variety of materials. For visual works, notice the artist’s ability to create confident lines. Lines are created when an artist draws or paints marks on a page, when a sculptor bends or shapes material, or when a photographer angles their camera a certain way. Some ways to describe lines are dashed, bold, rough, smooth, or implied. Note any interesting shapes that grab your eye when you look at a piece of art and think about how the artist achieved them. Shapes can be geometric or organic.  Geometric shapes are simple, commonly-recognized shapes like squares or rectangles. Organic shapes are unique and free-form. Looking at still life paintings of fruit is a great way to understand how artists have experimented with shape. Ask yourself why the artist chose to use the combination of colors that they did and if these colors work in harmony or contrast. Color has an enormous effect on how we feel when we look at a piece. For example, pieces with blue undertones are known to have a calming...

Artificial lights set your internal clock to "awake" when you should be asleep, suppressing the release of the sleep hormone melatonin. On the contrary, turning off the lights prior to bed gives your body the signal that it is night-time and sleep-time.  Use light-restricting black out curtains. Switch to lower-wattage lamps as you get ready for bed. Use a night light for late-night toilet runs. Put away digital clocks with glowing displays. Make sure the room is at a comfortable temperature for you. The human body temperature should be cooler that during daytime hours - most experts suggest the temp should be at least 5 to 10 degrees cooler. It depends on your personal preference, but the best sleep is between 60 and 67 degree Fahrenheit. You may be able to drift off to sleep with background noise, but, in the wee hours of the night, sound can easily pull you from your slumber. If you fall asleep to music, set a timer so that it goes off 20 to 30 minutes later. If your bedroom is positioned near a noisy intersection, or your neighbors are rambunctious night owls, grab a pair of earplugs to ensure a peaceful night's rest. If you are talking on the phone, watching TV, or eating late-night snacks in your bed, your body will find it hard to associate this zone for resting. Make the bedroom a technology-free zone. Use your bed primarily for sleeping and sex, so that falling asleep gets easier.

As a business owner, the most important goal when beginning a new business, job, or craft is simply to survive. If you’re starting your own business or getting in on the ground floor, avoid establishing unrealistic goals for the fledgling enterprise.  The heart of all businesses, even those with altruistic, selfless ownership, is making money. The goal might be modest (just enough to allow your business to survive and grow) or enormous (to attract additional investors and satisfy shareholders), but this is true to some degree for every business. You will never achieve that goal of, say, providing mittens to all of the underprivileged kids  in the world through your new mitten shop, if you don’t focus on keeping that coffee shop in business and thriving first. Long-term goals are important, but shouldn’t come at the expense of sustainable short-term ones. Ever heard the saying “You’ve gotta spend money to make money?” Frugality is advised wherever possible, but only so much that it frees up capital for the more important, more deserving expenses. Those expenses might be the salaries of particularly accomplished professionals you’re hoping to woo, or trade magazines, or simply a nice suit so as to look the part in the company of your colleagues and clients. Aim to invest in future success, not just celebrate current success. Avoid exorbitantly expensive ties and jackets, company cars, and huge offices you really don’t need—but don’t take it for granted that nice things are automatically exorbitant. Image is an important component of success in business, but not just when it comes to the superficial. Having an enormous office you can’t fill or work you can’t pay for punctually (on account of that enormous office or company car lease) will feed into other companies’ perception of you as well. New businesses need to survive if they’re going to ever be anything, but all businesses must take on risk of some kind. Stepping outside the norm, either in your role at a company or in the expectations for the industry, is...

As a dairy product, yogurt contains acids that can help lighten dark spots. The “good” bacteria in yogurt may be beneficial as well, as they are known to contain enzymes that can break down proteins like melanin.  Rub the plain yogurt onto your dark spots that need “fading”. Leave on until the yogurt dries, and then rinse off with cool water. Some herbs may help the yogurt remove the spots from your skin.  Apply the yogurt and herb mixture directly onto your face and any other area with spots. Leave on until dry, and then rinse off with cool water. The following herbs contain antioxidants and bioflavonoids that can help lighten brown spots when combined with yogurt:  1 tablespoon of mustard powder 1 tablespoon of turmeric/curcumin powder 1 tablespoon of aloe vera gel . Castor oil contains antioxidants that can protect and lighten the skin. Soak a cotton ball with a few drops of castor oil and dab on your skin anywhere you want to fade the spots. Let it soak in and leave it on! Vitamin E has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and healing properties and can help fade dark spots on your skin. Open or pierce a liquid capsule of Vitamin E and apply directly to your dark spots. Let it soak in and leave it on!

As a general rule, the first figure listed in a company's balance sheet is net sales for the period in question. The income statement may just say "sales" or "revenue," but the figure used is net sales. Net sales represent the gross sales (total sales in the period) minus any returns, discounts, or allowance for lost or damaged goods. This is the company's "top line" and is the truest representation of sales over the period.  Unlike the balance sheet, the income statement covers financial activity throughout the period in question, whether that is a month, a quarter, or a year. The income statement is organized as a reduction of net sales by various expenses faced by the company to arrive at net income (also called net profit or the bottom line). Your first calculation on the income statement will be that for gross profit. Gross profit represents the company's profit after considering the cost of goods sold (or services provided/sales). Cost of goods sold includes the cost of all materials and labor that went directly towards producing the products that were sold over the period. Total this amount and subtract it from net sales to arrive at gross profit. On the balance sheet, expenses are separated into two major categories: operating and non-operating expenses. Operating expenses follow the same philosophy as the cost of goods sold. That is, they are those expenses related directly to the operations of the company. This includes the cost of selling and advertising products, administrative costs, and wages for employees involved in these departments. It also includes general expenses, such as utilities, rent, and manager salaries.Remember that materials and manufacturing labor costs were already covered in the cost of goods sold and do not need to be counted here.  Separate these expenses into three major categories: selling, general and administrative expenses. When you've written out the amount of each expense, total them to find total operating expenses. Subtract total operating expenses from gross profit...

As a general rule, the substrate material should be removed and replaced every 2 months. If you see that the substrate is visibly soiled before that point, replace it early. While the aquarium is empty, clean it with a 5% bleach solution and rinse it thoroughly. Buy a small plastic tank from a pet store to hold your toad while you clean its aquarium. Many veterinarians will not treat toads as they do not have enough experience with their physiology and illnesses. If you suspect that your toad is sick, look for "exotic pet" veterinarians and inquire about their experience with amphibians. An inexperienced vet may inadvertently do harm to your toad while trying to treat it. Limit touching your toad to when you need to move it and avoid picking it up for fun. Toads prefer not to be handled and get frightened easily by human contact. Their skin may also cause irritation to human skin after prolonged contact, so keep this kind of touching brief.  Always wash your hands immediately before and after handling your toad. Any lotions, perfumes, or other substances on your hands may irritate your toad.

As a general rule, you will shoot better if you grip the pistol with as much strength as possible while still maintaining the ability to control the trigger. It is important, though, that you only grip with your hands.  When you grip the pistol, pay attention to what your shoulders and arms are doing. If they feel tense, you need to relax them. Your hands should be the only part of your body in which you feel the tension of the grip. You may find it easier to keep tension out of your arms if you grip the gun before your arms are in a shooting position. Push your arms out in front only after you have a secure grip on the gun. A pistol grip that is too relaxed will cause the pistol to recoil too much, but a grip that is too hard may mess with your sight alignment or cause your hands to weaken too quickly. Position your wrists so that the heel of your non-dominant hand is as high and flat on the gun as possible. In doing this, you can ultimately support and control the pistol better. As a general rule, you want both hands to be as high up on the gun as they can be. You need to secure the center of weight or pivot point to prevent the gun from flipping over during its recoil. If you keep your grip too low, you will not be able to steady the gun at this point. This technique is also known as the push-pull method. As you apply forward pressure with your dominant or firing hand, you should pull rear pressure using your non-dominant or non-firing hand.  This technique reduces the amount of recoil you will encounter and can improve your aim. The supporting (non-dominant) arm should be bent with the elbow pulled down. The firing (dominant) arm should be fully extended with the elbow and wrist locked.

As a hiring manager reviews your application, they will look for certain red flags. These won’t necessarily prevent you from getting the job. However, you’ll need to address them. Identify if any of the following apply to you:  criminal history financial mismanagement, such as bankruptcy plagiarism in school poor academic performance gaps in employment Having a criminal conviction will make it harder for you to get a job. Nevertheless, you must address the convictions. Most applications request your criminal background information, and you must be honest.  Try to put them off until the middle of the interview. Hiring managers remember the first and last things you say the most. Acknowledge the crime but then explain what you’ve learned. For example, “That DUI was a huge mistake. But it was the wake-up call I needed. I started AA and began to focus more on my future, which is why I entered school shortly afterwards.” Pivot to your current and future plans as much as possible. For example, you should discuss your educational goals and any job training. You can expect an employer to perform a background check on you at some point in the interview process. Accordingly, they will find out your terrible credit score or bankruptcy. Provide context for your financial struggles.  For example, a family member might have been ill and you racked up large medical bills. You needed the bankruptcy to wipe out your debts.  You can also explain that a family member had a period of extended unemployment, which caused you to rely on credit cards. The worst answer is to admit that you blow money in an irresponsible manner. If that’s why your credit is bad, you can focus on what steps you’ve taken to correct the problem: “I lost control of my credit situation, but I’ve been focused over the past three years building it back up. Credit counseling has helped.” You might have struggled to graduate, with many failed courses along the way. Or you might have been punished for academic misconduct, such as plagiarism. In either case, you...

As a manager or business owner, you know best the goals for your company. Consider things like sales goals, goals for employees and management, and where you would like to see your business a few years down the road.  Try to make your goals not only as specific as possible, but also attainable and worthy of working towards. For example, set financial goals that are within probability for your business, and set goals for employee performance that are achievable through following the policies and procedures you will set.  Once you’ve set the goals, make sure you are ready to commit to them as a business owner or manager. Setting goals is an important first step in crafting policies and procedures. Of course, following through is equally as important. Think about the day-to-day happenings and duties in your business. Write down each task that would need to be done each day to keep things running smoothly. Consider the following: what tasks will need formal outlining or directions? Which procedures will need to be done consistently the same way? Rather than focusing on menial tasks that won’t need much instruction, focus on the bigger picture items. Policies exist in business to keep things running smoothly and to hold employees and managers to certain standards of performance. Think about the problems that could arise if there are no policies in place. This will help you come up with the policies themselves. While thinking of potential issues, come up with brief ideas for how you might solve or correct them. Think of issues surrounding the day-to-day activities of your business, such a financials, interactions between employees and customers, and employee behavior and conduct.

As a part of your conversations, talk about what types of things interest the person. Knowing what the individual likes and dislikes can better cue you into your friend’s personality.  Pick up on comments about the person’s interests and incorporate them into  your conversation. This may stimulate further conversation and help you learn more about the person. It can also lead to doing activities together, which can also deepen your relationship to the person. For example, say, “Did you just mention that you love Vietnamese food? I’ve never had it before—what are some of your favorite dishes?”  Ask questions about the person’s interests. For example, if you want to get to know the person sitting next to you say, “I noticed that really beautiful picture on your desk. Where did you take it?” Mention your interests as a part of your conversation. This can help the other person get to know you better and shows your interest in having a dialogue with your friend. Consider using the person’s interests as a way to introduce yours. For example, if you’re talking about food you could say, “I'm a huge fan of trying new cuisines and Mexican is one I just don’t know well. Can you tell me a little more about it and what types of dishes you like?” In order to pick up on the person’s interests and personality, listen and watch closely to what your friend says and does. This shows your interest and gives you a point from which to start a conversation or suggest getting together for an activity.  Talk about a mixture of serious and more lighthearted subjects to get a better sense of the person’s personality. For example, talk about something such as pets for lighter topics. You could say, “What kind of dog do you have or want to get?” For more serious topics, keep it non-controversial at first so that you don’t offend the person. You could say, “Can you believe how mean-spirited the race for president has become?” Ask questions about the person’s statements to show your interest in getting to know him or her.

As a promoter, you may be responsible for financing events yourself, so find out how large of a budget you will need. Form a list of all vendors, venues, and other service providers you will need to hire for each event. Create three hypothetical events differing in size (small, medium, large) and then contact each company on your list to ask for quotes for each size. Determine which events you can afford on your own and which will require additional investors.  For example, with concert promotion, you will at the very least need to pay the talent, book a venue (which may or may not provide its own sound system), and advertise the show. If you are promoting a small “underground” show featuring unknown local acts, you can book a stage at a small club or bar, rent a sound system if needed, and rely on flyers and word-of-mouth for advertising. But for more prominent acts, you may also need to hire security, cover transportation and room accommodations for the talent, book larger, more expensive venues, and much more. To play it safe, always plan on spending more than the quotes given in order to protect your personal profit in case unexpected costs pop up along the way. Although having a lawyer on retainer is not strictly necessary to start a career, consulting one in the beginning will help protect you from future costs due to unseen legal entanglements. At the very least, discuss local, county, state, and federal laws and regulations that bear directly on the sort of events you plan, such as any licenses or business registrations that might be required on your part. Also familiarize yourself with what constitutes a legal contract in order to avoid future liabilities. If you plan on regularly employing a lawyer, be sure to factor this cost into your overhead. Local laws may determine exactly what classification your business will belong to. Whether you are the sole owner or partner with someone else may also effect which business entity you choose. Consult with your lawyer or use the internet to conduct research...

As a singer, you’ve probably heard this advice countless times. It’s important, though! It helps you hit and maintain high notes, and helps to relax your muscles.  When you inhale, your stomach should rise first, followed by your chest. If you have trouble with this, try putting your hand on your abdomen as you breathe. It’ll remind you to focus on breathing from that area. High notes require a ton of breath control, so sing from your diaphragm and practice controlling the amount of air you use to support your vocal cords. This can be a continuation of the “oo” and “ee” sounds you used in warm-up. Once you get your voice up into the high register that you want, open up those vowel sounds to sound more like “oh” and “uh.”  As you practice this over time, you’ll notice that the higher notes are getting easier and easier to reach. Don't neglect your lower range, though. Practising low notes helps strengthen your vocal cords so you can hit the high notes as well. Each voice has certain vowels that work best when singing high notes. Others are harder to hit. You should experiment to determine which vowels work and sound best for you. Once you have an idea of which vowel works best, modify (gradually) towards that vowel as you ascend the scale. For example, you might have a hard time hitting a long "e" (like in "meet"), but you can easily hit a short "i." You could modify the long "e" in "meet" by singing "mitt" and subtly adjusting the "i" into the long "e" as you get higher. Consonants, like a hard “g,” can help you get better at cord closure. After practicing vowels for a while, put a hard “g” in front of them. This helps you maintain a steady sound by keeping your vocal cords vibrating steadily.  Also work on consonants like “m” and “n” in front of vowels. Cord closure is when your vocal cords come together to create a sound. If they aren’t “closed” all the way, it's difficult to maintain steady air flow. When rehearsing, never hesitate to sing the word "yawn" for one of those notes in your upper range. When...

As a teen or kid, you are growing at a pretty quick pace. So you probably have some clothes that don’t fit you. Go through your wardrobe and pick out nice pieces to sell that you no longer wear.  You can take your clothes to a thrift or secondhand store. These consignment stores will go through your clothes and offer you money for the items that the store decides to buy from you. Selling old clothes is a great way to make some extra money. It can also help you pay for new clothes. Make sure that any clothes you plan to sell are clean and ironed. And that your shoes are shined and without too much wear. You will have a better chance of selling your clothes if the pieces look nice and presentable. Don’t spend all your earnings or savings. If you sell your old stuff or even make things to sell, don’t spend all the money you earn. The importance of a goal is that it helps you stay committed to earning money for a specific purpose. Instead of spending all the money you earn, put at least 10% of it away. Don’t spend that money until you have reached your goal. You can easily gather up any toys or clothes that you no longer have a need for and sell these items right from your front yard.  Get your friends from the neighborhood to help you as well. The more of you there are, the more appealing your sale will look as it will have more items to browse. Your friends probably have things that can be sold and will probably be willing to help. Post signs up around your neighborhood advertising your sale a few days before the sale so people can learn about it. It’s also a good idea to hold the garage sale in the spring. Garage sales are popular in the spring as people are typically cleaning out junk that accumulated over the last year or so. Before you sell anything that you think is yours, make sure you get permission from your parents. You shouldn’t sell clothes, toys, or other items without permission. Especially if your parents were the ones who bought you these items. You can learn to make great products that are...

As an HSP, you need to manage stress effectively because your heightened senses and sensitive neural system cause you to feel stress more acutely than other people. You will likely feel the effects of stress if you attempt to keep up with outside demands when your body is telling you that you need a break to refresh and regroup.  Stress causes a physiological response in the body. It causes the body to produce increased cortisol and epinephrine, which sends your body into “flight” mode. Additionally, stress causes your liver to produce more glucose, your heart rate increases, your blood vessels dilate, your breathing rate increases, your muscles tense, and your stomach may become upset, possibly leading to vomiting.  Untreated or prolonged stress can lead to risk for hypertension, heart attack, stroke, chronic headaches, and persistent fatigue. People with highly sensitive personalities tend to either over-socialize or under-socialize.  It is important to find the right balance between getting out of your house (and your comfort zone!) while allowing yourself much-needed decompression in the form of time alone in a familiar setting.  If you spend too much time out, you may find yourself listening more to external demands than internal demands and you’re likely to become overwhelmed or over-stimulated on a regular basis. This can lead to physical symptoms of stress, including headaches, fatigue, muscle tension, and even insomnia.   If you spend too much time in, you run the risk of missing out on valuable experiences and activities. Additionally, going out can become increasingly difficult as you become less accustomed to being in unfamiliar or uncomfortable situations. If you begin to feel restless and lonely, you may want to push yourself towards more social activities. Everyone needs to get plenty of sleep to thrive, but sensitive individuals may find sleep even more important. Sleep helps the body repair and allows individuals to regulate emotions effectively. HSPs may do worse than others attempting to...

As an old song says, “Breaking up is hard to do.” Scientists have even shown that romantic rejection activates the same pathways in the brain that physical pain does. It hurts when you break up with someone, and it’s completely natural to feel upset about it. Some psychologists estimate that about 98% of us have experienced some form of unrequited love, whether it’s an unreturned crush or a nasty breakup. Knowing that you’re not alone probably won’t heal your broken heart, but it could make the pain easier to bear. Don’t pretend you’re fine. Denying or minimizing your emotions -- like telling yourself “I’m really fine” or “It’s no big deal” -- will actually make them worse in the long run. You have to process how you’re feeling so you can move past it.  Cry your eyes out if you feel like it. Crying can actually be therapeutic when you’re upset. It can reduce feelings of stress, anxiety, and anger. So go ahead, grab some tissues and wail your heart out if it helps.  Express your emotions through creative pursuits, like art or music. Write a song about how you feel, or play a track that comforts you. Draw a picture of your emotional state. The only thing here is to stay away from things that are too sad or angry (think death metal). These may actually increase your feelings of sadness and anger.  It’s tempting to let your grief out by punching or breaking things, screaming, or shouting, but avoid this impulse if you can. Studies show that using violence to express your anger, even if it’s toward an inanimate object like a pillow, can actually make you feel more angry. To express your anger in a healthy way, try talking about your feelings to yourself or to someone you love.  This will be easier with a family member or friend you trust. Find someone who has a shoulder you're comfortable crying on and let loose. They've likely cried on your shoulder at some point. Now all they're doing is returning the favor. Expressing how you feel, rather than bottling it all up or trying to ignore it, will help you accept that...

As an owner salesperson, that is, one who owns the business that is selling the product, you have the ability to affect more than just the interaction with buyers. In addition to the strategies mentioned in the rest of this article, you can also use other functions to improve your sales. Advertising, merchandising, and marketing are support functions for sales. Selling is the goal of these support functions and a good owner salesperson needs to have a decent understanding of each of these.  Read basic texts on marketing. These will inform you about many of the tactics and techniques underlying advertising, merchandising, and marketing. It is important to make your product information available through as many channels as possible. Today, the range of potential placements has increased a great deal thanks to the advances in communications. Give your potential buyers many possible places to find out more about your product in numerous ways, such as:  Word-of-mouth Advertising (radio, TV, print, email, social media, online ads, etc.) Sales representatives Trade shows Conferences Cold call sales Product placement in movies, sports, etc. Local community events (for instance, donating a product to a local benefit auction will draw attention to your product and serve a good cause) You should analyze your sales at regular intervals. Is the product selling well? Is stock low or high? Are you profiting? How are your competitors performing? Being able to answer these questions will help you maximize your sales, and keep growth steady. If you are not selling well, you will need to enter problem-solving mode. Improving your sales will involve reassessing your product, customer base, and marketing.  Change your tactics periodically. If customers hear the same sales routine over and over again, or see the same display month in and month out, your product might start to seem irrelevant. Consider deleting a product from your line if it is not selling well. Stock can be sold at discounted prices to liquidate it. Review your...

As directed above, allow the pork to warm gradually. When the pork reaches room temperature, season generously with a "rub" of your choice. This dry, flavorful exterior translates into a crisp, delicious crust after grilling. You have many options when it comes to dry rubs. For instance, for a BBQ-inspired rub, try rubbing the pork down with a mix of white and brown sugar, salt, pepper, and other spices of your choice (like cinnamon and cumin). Use a sharp knife to make fairly shallow cuts in a criss-cross pattern across the surface of the pork. As noted above, this allows the juices to escape, basting the pork, and allows both the heat of the grill and the flavor of the seasonings to penetrate deeper. Regardless of the type of grill you have, your goal is to cook the pork at a steady temperature of roughly 225 degrees Fahrenheit (107 degrees Celsius). A grill thermometer can help you keep track of the temperature in the grill as it warms up. Keep the grill lid closed to speed the heating process. Paint olive oil or nonstick cooking spray on the grill grates to prevent the meat from sticking during cooking. If you have a gas grill, it's relatively simple to set the grill to a medium-high heat. If you have a charcoal grill, however, it's a little more difficult. Light your charcoal and allow the flames to die down before cooking your pork. The charcoal is ready when it is mostly or entirely grey and glows with a red-orange heat. To help regulate the temperature inside the grill and prevent the pork from drying out, place an oven-safe pan or metal pie tin full of water in the grill if you have room to do so. If you have a two-level grill, a good place for this tray is on the upper cooking rack. Add your pork to the grill and close the lid. Allow the pork to cook, checking occasionally to test for done-ness. When done, the pork should have a crisp brown and black exterior, a tender texture, and the internal temperature should reach 160 degrees Fahrenheit (70 degrees Celsius). Because pork cooked in this way can...

As directed above, remove the pork from the refrigerator or freezer and allow it to warm naturally. If the meat is frozen, allow it to defrost overnight. As you wait for your pork shoulder to warm, set a frying pan or skillet on the stove top. When it's hot enough that beads of water flicked into the pan boil up instantly, add a few tablespoons of oil. Add your cut of pork shoulder to the skillet. Cook in oil over high heat until brown on all sides (this can require several minutes for each side). Slow cookers like crock pots use moist heat and therefore can't give the pork a delicious "crust" on their own, which makes it necessary to crisp the exterior of the pork in a pan before slow cooking. Delicious as a cut of pork shoulder can be on its own, if you're using a slow cooker to braise your pork to moist, delicious perfection, you'll want to make sure it's not alone in the pot. Vegetables and seasonings add their flavor to the pork (and vice versa), increasing the complexity of the flavor in the dish. In addition, slow cooked "stew"-style vegetables make a great side dish for pork.  Feel free to add any vegetables you like. Chopped onions, garlic, carrots, and potatoes all work well. Additionally, any seasonings are fair game. For Latin-flavored carnitas, you might try cumin, garlic powder, and pepper, while for a more European flavor, you might try sage, rosemary, and thyme. Place the pork shoulder into the crock pot on top of the other desired ingredients. Sprinkle any seasonings you're using over the pile of ingredients. Then, cover 1/2 to 3/4 of the pork shoulder with liquid. This can be a variety of things - water, unsweetened apple juice, beer, or, commonly, stock are all frequent choices. Make your choice based on what pairs well with the ingredients and seasonings in your pork dish - there's no one "right" answer. Feel free to mix and match!  As an example, if you're making the carnitas described above, you might try slow cooking your pork in Mexican beer for a delicious, complex taste. Also, when...

As fish ages and begins to go bad, its outer surface will become wetter and eventually develop a thin layer of slime. This is a good sign that your fish has begun to spoil. Once fish has fully spoiled, the slimy moisture on the meat will feel thick and slippery to the touch.  Discard fresh fish as soon as you notice the beginning of this slimy texture. Cooked fish will not develop a slimy coating, even after it’s started to go bad. All fish—raw or cooked—smells like fish. However, refrigerated fish that has started to go bad will have an increasingly fishy smell. If given enough time, this potent fish smell will develop into the putrid smell of rotting meat. As fish continues to spoil, its pungent fish smell will grow stronger and stronger. It’s best to discard fish as soon as it starts to smell “off.” Fish meat is typically light pink or white in color, with a thin, clear film of liquid. As fresh or refrigerated fish ages and begins to go bad, the meat will take on a glossy, milky color. The milky parts of the fish may also take on a blue- or gray-ish tint. If you’ve already cooked your fish, it will not develop a milky color. This sign of expiration applies only to raw fish. If you’ve kept fish in the freezer for over 9 months, it may begin showing signs of freezer burn. Look for crystallized peaks of ice that have formed on the surface of the fish, and note any discolored patches as well. Discard freezer-burned food. Freezer-burned food is still technically edible, and it will not make you sick. However, fish will lose most of its flavor and take on a grainy texture as freezer burn sets in.
