All states require appraisers to be state licensed or certified in order to provide appraisals to lenders regulated by the federal government. One way to do this is by using reliable online resources, such as https://www.asc.gov/National-Registries/FindAnAppraiser.aspx. These sites usually offer a variety of ways to search for a local licensed or certified appraiser. If you’ll be obtaining the appraisal yourself for a refinance or home equity loan, your lender should be able to provide you with the names of appraisers they deal with. If you’re thinking of selling your house, a local Realtor will usually be more than happy to give you some names. If you're working with a bank or mortgage company, and if you aren't permitted to get your own appraiser, be sure to ask your lender to send an appraiser who is very familiar with your neighborhood. Keep in mind that there are now federal laws in place that detail how appraisers can be contacted and by whom.

All you need for this box is a matchbox (not a matchbook), some small scissors, a pencil, and a small coin such as a penny. Put the coin up against one short side of the matchbox “drawer” and mark its edges on the box with the pencil. This will help you make sure that the flap is just large enough for the coin to slip through. Use the scissors to make three cuts at the bottom of the drawer to form a flap. Leave one side intact to serve as a hinge. Hold the matchbox with the flap side facing you so that your audience can’t see it. Show the coin and the box to your audience. Make a big deal about the box being empty. Shake it to prove there’s nothing inside. Close the drawer and shake the box, letting your audience hear the coin rattle around inside. Be careful not to let the audience see this part! Practice the trick in private until you can get the coin out through the flap without any sign of what you’re doing. Slide out the drawer and dramatically proclaim that the box is empty. Ta-da!

Allow other drivers to pass you or get over into your lane if needed. Being courteous puts everyone in a more stable state of mind. Talking or texting while driving is a terrible distraction that often causes accidents. Road rage can be triggered if an angry driver spots you using your phone in the car.  Cell phone usage causes more than 25% of auto accidents in the US. 13 US states and D.C. have laws prohibiting hand-held phone use while driving: California, Connecticut, Delaware, Hawaii, Illinois, Maryland, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Vermont, Washington, and West Virginia. Talking on a hand-held phone is also illegal in Puerto Rico, Guam, and the US Virgin Islands. 37 states and D.C. ban phone use while driving for novice drivers (drivers under a specified age – anywhere from 16 to 20, depending on the state). Texting while driving is even more dangerous than talking on the phone. If you're driving 55 mph and take your eyes off the road for 5 seconds to read a text, that's the equivalent of driving the entire length of a football field, while blindfolded. Any time you plan to make a turn or change lanes, use your turn signal. It can be extremely frightening when someone suddenly cuts into the lane ahead of you, without warning you first. This is a major road rage trigger for some people. Twice. When changing lanes, especially at interstate highway speeds, be sure to look behind you and check any blind spots to make sure you aren't going to accidentally cut somebody off. Slotting into a lane carelessly and forcing the driver in that lane to slam on the brakes can easily spark road rage. Excessive honking is a road rage trigger for many people, and it's just generally a rude thing to do. Your horn should only be used in rare situations when you need to alert another driver of your presence.  Use your horn if another driver doesn't seem to see you while backing out of a parking space. Use your horn to alert another driver that your lane is occupied, if it looks like they are about to swerve into...

Allowing your guinea pig outside is good for their health and well-being. Guinea pig runs are popular enclosures that will allow your guinea pig to play safely outdoors. Runs are relatively easy to put together and can be made of different materials, such as wood, PVC, nylon and mesh. Whichever type of run that you choose, there are a few important things to keep in mind. For example, cover the run to keep predators out and provide your guinea pig with some protection from the sun and breeze.  Place some things in the run that your guinea pig can hide and rest in, such as a guinea pig-size igloo and paper bags. Plastic tunnels or toilet paper tubes are also good items that they can rest in.  Make sure that you place plenty of water and good-quality hay in the run as well.  If the grass is still damp, place several large towels on the ground so that your guinea has somewhere dry to go when they are outside. Alternatively, you could wait until the grass is completely dry before taking your guinea pig outside. Remove any weeds, and debris from inside the enclosure area. Do not place your guinea pig on treated, mowed or fertilised grass. Guinea pigs are very sensitive to hot weather (80 degrees Fahrenheit or more),  so it is important to take him outside only when the temperature is not too hot. Temperatures will not be extremely high in the springtime, so this would be the perfect time to take your guinea pig outside. Because guinea pigs are sensitive to extremes in temperature, watch your guinea pig when they are outside to make sure that they look okay. If your guinea pig is starting to suffer from heatstroke, they may exhibit signs such as reluctance to move, weakness, and panting. If you notice any of these signs, bring your guinea pig inside immediately and contact your veterinarian.  You can administer some first aid to your guinea pig before taking them to your veterinarian. Wet their ears, feet, and fur with cold water.

Almost all programs are written in text editors and then compiled to run on computers. While you can use programs like Notepad or TextEdit, it is highly recommended that you download a syntax-highlighting editor such as Notepad++ JEdit, or Sublime Text. This will make your code much easier to visually parse. Some languages such as Visual Basic include an editor and compiler in one package. All programs are created through coding. If you want to create your own programs, you will need to be familiar with at least one programming language. The languages you will need to learn will vary depending on the type of program you want to create. Some of the more useful and important ones include:   C - C is a low-level language that interacts very closely with the computer's hardware. It is one of the older programming languages that still sees widespread use.  C++ - The biggest drawback of C is that it is not object-oriented. This is where C++ comes in. C++ is currently the most popular programming language in the world. Programs such as Chrome, Firefox, Photoshop, and many others are all built with C++. It is also a very popular language for creating video games.  Java - Java is an evolution of the C++ language, and is extremely portable. Most computers, regardless of operating system, can run a Java Virtual Machine, allowing the program to be used nearly universally. It is widely used in video games and business software, and is often recommended as an essential language.  C# - C# is a Windows-based language and is one of the main languages used when creating Windows programs. It is closely related to Java and C++, and should be easy to learn if you're already familiar with Java. If you want to make a Windows or Windows Phone program, you'll want to take a look at this language.  Objective-C - This is another cousin of the C language that is specifically designed for Apple systems. If you want to make iPhone or iPad apps, this is the language for you. For any high-level language such as C++, Java, and many others,...

Almost any shirt lends itself to becoming sleeveless, but there are some common options.  T-shirts Old blouses Long-sleeved shirts It is important that the surface is flat so that you cut the shirt evenly. This is why the shirt needs to be inside out, so you can see the seam more clearly.  Use sharp scissors to cut many strips into the sleeves, cutting straight up to the shoulder seam and stopping. When you are done, the sleeves should look like fringe hanging from the shirt. This helps the shirt lose its curve around the shoulder seam so that it lays flatter and allows for a straighter cut. Using your scissors, make your way around the seam cutting off each strip carefully, as close to the edge as possible.  Avoid cutting into the shoulder seam, because that will cause fraying and may cause the shirt to unravel later. Pull the strips tight as you cut, which will help make a clean, straight cut. If you do have any straggling threads or uneven edges, you'll want to remove those with the scissors in order to avoid fraying and unraveling later.  Take your scissors carefully along the edge at the shoulder seam, trimming up anything that needs to be cleaned up. Your shirt is now sleeveless but still has the seams intact in order to help the shirt last longer. When the seams are cut off, the shirt tends to come apart quickly.

Almost every major bank offers airline miles as a possible reward for credit card spending. Some cards may have a sign-up bonus, where you will automatically earn a certain number of miles when you sign up.  A co-branded airline credit card will give you miles for one specific airline. They often come with extra bonuses, like a free checked bag or priority boarding. A flexible awards credit card gives you points, which you can spend on miles for a variety of different airlines. While miles are a common reward for credit cards, the best deals may require a high credit score. For example, you may need a score of at least 700 to get the largest sign-up bonuses. Each credit card has different rules for earning miles. Read the fine print thoroughly to understand the best way to earn and maximize miles. Some may have a minimum balance that you must spend before you can earn miles. Others may only give you miles when you shop at certain stores. Use the credit card for groceries, gas, dining, and clothes. You will collect more miles every time you use the card. Just make sure that you can afford to pay off all of your purchases at the end of the month. Many credit cards may offer a mileage bonus when you spend a certain amount of money during a certain time. For example, they may offer 40,000 miles (64,000 km) when you spend $4000 in 3 months. Many bonuses from these credit cards will only count if you pay your card off on time. Furthermore, paying your card on time will help you maintain good credit, which may qualify you for better deals in the future. Look for a section that says something like “Redeem Travel Rewards” or “Redeem Miles.” Depending on the program, you can use this page to book a flight using your credit card points or to add miles to your frequent flyer account.

Almost every romantic relationship requires some foundation of friendship to endure.  After time, your friendship might take a back seat to your relationship and the everyday bustle of life, making the time you spend together even less frequent.  Make a conscious effort to nourish your friendship with your boyfriend, which should naturally encourage him to make more time for you.  For example, if you initially bonded because of a shared interest, like a game that you both enjoy, get back into playing the game with one another. Of, if you both share a love of the outdoors but just haven’t had time to get out like you used to, ask him to start hiking with you. If your boyfriend is consistently not making enough time for you, it’s time to think about who he is.  He might be a great guy, but he might not be emotionally ready or willing to be in the sort of relationship that you want.  Perhaps he’s emotionally immature, or maybe he’s just selfish.  Looking at him honestly for who he is will only help you in the long run. You might realize that he’s just not ready to spend as much time with you as you need or be able to be in a committed, adult relationship.  That’s not a reflection on him as a person, but shows that you two are at different points in your lives. You and your boyfriend need to define your relationship, which is different than defining your relationship goals.  You both need to communicate what you think your status is and what that status implies, and, more specifically, how much time you expect to make for the relationship on a day-to-day basis. You might find that you’re on different pages, which could explain why he’s not making enough time for you.  You can simply ask him, “what do you see our relationship status as? And what does that mean to you?” If he says that he sees you as an exclusive couple, take the opportunity to ask him, “How do you envision a couple interacting on a day-to-day basis?” If you feel that your boyfriend isn’t making enough time for you, don’t rationalize or justify the...

Also be aware of what the school permits by way of accessories. If you do, it'll suck when you see a cute bangle, or when you spot a sweet handbag, and can't afford it.

Also hold your head high with your chin up. This will give the impression that you are confident, even if you don’t feel confident. Avoid nervous body language such as crossing your arms, tapping your foot, or pacing back and forth. Show your audience that you are excited about your speech by smiling before you begin, as well as throughout the speech. Pausing before you give your speech will allow you time to collect your thoughts. It will also allow your audience members time to focus on you before you start your speech. Also remember to pause and take a breath throughout your speech, especially if you feel like you are talking to fast. Pause at the end of sentences, or pause after saying an important point. . Project your voice by breathing from your stomach. You should feel your stomach expand as you breathe in. Enunciate your words by saying each syllable clearly. And put energy into your words by emphasizing them.  For example, if you ask a rhetorical question, emphasize the last part of the question, or the word "you" to get your point across. Also emphasize main ideas, and the beginning of a new paragraph or section of your speech. Anxiety and nervousness may cause you to speak faster than usual. If you are out of breath while speaking, or if your words start running together, then you are most likely speaking too fast. To keep this from happening, take a breath and slow down to a normal pace. Start by looking at a familiar face, like a friend, in the audience. Then speak to individuals in your audience by looking at one person at a time. Hold their gaze for 5 to 7 seconds. Move on to the next person after 5 to 7 seconds.  Think of your speech as a series of conversations with different members in the audience. If you find yourself getting nervous looking at people, try looking a little above their heads, instead. This way, you're still looking out, but you can focus on what you're saying instead of on other people's expressions. A good ending should bring your presentation full circle. Finish off your...

Altering the pH of your soil will only work if you have chalk-free soil. You'll know if you have a chalky soil if you can see white clumps of chalk or flint. You'll find water drains easily and doesn't form puddles. The ground will also be very dry in summer, as water drains away without being retained. If you're faced with a chalky soil, you won't have much luck altering the soil pH so it's best to grow your hydrangeas in containers using purchased compost rather than any dug out of the ground in your garden. You'll find that having concrete near your flower bed (such as a concrete fence base or concrete walkway) can affect soil pH. Concrete is likely to turn soil more alkaline, which will hinder the growth of blue hydrangeas. If you can, plant hydrangeas well away from concrete structures to maintain their blue color.

Alternatively, you can also use ½ pound (225 grams) of lean ground lamb and ½ pound (225 grams) of lean ground beef. If you are using beef, you might want to reduce the amount of pepper to ½ teaspoon. Keep stirring and folding until everything is evenly blended together. You can use your hands to do this as well, as long as you don't mind the texture of the meat. Roll the meat into small balls first, then gently flatten them with the palm of your hand until they are ½ inch (1.27 centimeters) thick. You will have enough meat to make about 12 small patties or 4 to 5 larger ones. There are two ways you can cook the meat patties, and it all depends on your personal preference. Broiling will give you dryer patties, while frying will give you oilier ones. Whichever method you choose, make sure that there is no pink left inside the patties when you are done.  To broil the patties: preheat your broiler first, then place the patties onto a baking sheet. Broil them for 8 to 10 minutes.  To fry the patties: heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Fry smaller patties for 3 to 4 minutes turning once. Fry larger ones for 6 minutes, turning once. Gyro meat is typically served with pita bread, some fresh vegetables (such as lettuce, onions, and tomatoes) and tzatziki sauce.

Although 30 minutes of moderate cardio exercise daily can stop the production of additional visceral fat, a full hour is required to burn it. You cannot “spot reduce,” or simply burn stomach fat without burning other body fat. However, 90 percent of people notice a reduction in belly fat first. Short (1-5 minute) bursts of high-intensity cardio during a 1-hour session will boost your metabolism and reduce fat faster.  Try a boot camp, circuit training or fat burning class, to learn how to incorporate high intensity exercises into your routine. You can also look for interval settings on most cardiovascular machines. Do planks, side planks, push-ups, squats and lunges every other day.  Try to incorporate 30 minutes of bodyweight exercises every other day. These static and dynamic exercises burn more fat than crunches because they engage your core muscles, such as the abdominals longer and more intensely. Add in strength training with machines or free weights when your body is used to the increased exercise. Do 30 minutes of weightlifting, with abdominals flexed, 3 times per week. Try to do your cardio before you do abdominal exercises and stretch, so that more of the work will focus on your core, rather than tight hips, legs or the neck.  Take a Pilates class to learn how to target the deep abdominal muscles. Do 15 to 30 minutes of abdominal exercises every other day. Make sure to include exercises that work the obliques (side-abs) and transverse abdominis (lower abs). Good exercises include side plank dips, reverse crunches, the bicycle and roll downs. Consult your doctor before doing any exercise if you had a C-section.

Although WordPress automates a lot of the creation process, knowing a markup language such as HTML (HyperText Markup Language), XML (Extensible Markup Language), or XHTML (Extensible HyperText Markup Language) lets you create your own themes and modify existing ones to better suit your needs. A cascading style sheet (CSS) is a way to specify how a document written in a markup language appears. It allows the markup language to address the document’s content, while it governs the document’s appearance. WordPress uses it in conjunction with HTML and XHTML to create themes. WordPress uses the scripting language PHP (standing for “Personal Home Page”). Scripts are used in creating WordPress plugins, which add functionality ranging from displaying weather reports to spellcheck. Most websites use images to one degree or another to illustrate the message contained in the website’s text or to carry the message itself. You should be comfortable using an image editor program to resize, crop, and adjust the pixel density of images you plan to use on your website or blog.

Although a bachelor’s degree isn’t necessary to begin a career as an event promoter, the knowledge gained from studying these fields may prove to be beneficial. If you plan on attending college in the future or have already enrolled, consider majoring in these subjects to give your resume some impressive credentials, especially if you aspire to handle large-scale events for prominent clients. If you haven’t the means or desire to pursue a four-year program, sign up for individual courses or seminars at your local university, community college, or online. Such well known institutions as Stanford University, the University of Chicago, and MIT offer free online resources, including podcasts, lectures, videos, assignments, and more. A bachelor’s degree may look impressive on your resume, but gaining hands-on experience outside of the classroom will better prepare you for the demands and logistics of events and promotion. First, settle on a particular area of entertainment that appeals to your interests. Then apply for a job at any level of appropriate events. Don’t worry about fancy titles just yet. Whether it is entry-level or higher, use your position as an inside-view of the inner workings of events. For instance, if you are interested in promoting Dating Nights, seek out employment with caterers, bartenders, DJs, venues, or any other company that is frequently hired by one or more promoters for such events. Once hired, focus on your specific job to the extent of performing it successfully and earning a reputation as a reliable worker. But keep your eyes and ears open to every other aspect of the event, regardless of how far removed it is from your personal duties. Before you branch out and become personally responsible for promoting events, use this opportunity to witness how events succeed, how they fail, and how they overcome snafus. For example, say that a catering company has hired you to wait tables at a Dating Night. On the day of the event, the various people hired (the DJ, the bartenders, the...

Although aerobic exercises will not necessarily tone your upper body, they will help support weight loss and the decrease in your overall body fat.  As your body fat amount decreases, the toned muscles underneath will be more visible.  Include at least 150 minutes of moderate intensity cardio exercises each week.  This is any type of activity that gets you to sweat and makes you slightly out of breath.  For more results like quicker weight loss, increase your cardio time to 200 or 300 minutes per week.  Exercises to try include:  jogging/running, playing sports, swimming or using the elliptical. Remember that to lose fat, you need to aim to achieve a sustained elevated heart rate of 70% to 80% of your heart rate maximum. This common exercise is a great move that specifically targets and isolates the chest muscles.  To do this exercise:  Bring your body down into a plank position.  Your hands should be placed on the floor at a width slightly wider than your shoulders. While keeping your body in a straight line, slowly lower your body by bending your elbows back, pointing towards the ribs or hips, and away from your body.  Lower until your chest is about 1-2 inches off the floor.  Slowly push back up into the starting position. Increase the intensity of this exercise by turning regular push-ups into plyo-push-ups.  Once you have lowered your body, instead of coming back up slowly to the starting position, explosively push yourself up into the air.  Aim to be able to clap your hands in front of your chest while you're mid air. This exercise move uses the weight of two dumbbells to work your pectoral muscles.  To do this exercise:  Grab two dumbbells.  Lay down on a bench with your legs bent and feet flat on the ground. Hold one dumbbell in each hand.  Lift both arms straight up towards the ceiling with your palms facing away from you. Slowly lower the dumbbells down toward your body.  Your elbows should be bent at a 90 degree angle and your upper arms parallel to the floor in the finishing position.  Push...

Although all parts of your body release heat, your head and neck are often exposed which releases major heat. Wear a hat and scarf to keep the heat trapped and circulate throughout your body. Any enclosed hat will do, but avoid visors. If you can, wear a beanie or a hat that covers your ears. Your ears are one of the first parts of your body to experience damage to cold temperatures. If you're not going shirtless, wear a tanktop or thick sleeveless shirt or vest underneath your outfit. This keeps your core warmer, which can help regulate the rest of your body temperature. A thick pair of thermals underneath your jeans or sweatpants will keep your body focused on warming the exposed parts. Leggings or tights can also work, as well as high socks. Gloves can keep your outer extremities warm to avoid getting frostbite. If you don't need to use your fingers, mittens are better since they keep fingers together and trap heat more effectively than gloves.  Gloves don't have to clash your entire outfit. A simple pair of white classy gloves for girls can add a nice touch, and black leather gloves for guys can make you seem cool. You can purchase "hot hands" or hand warming devices to put inside gloves. These will keep your hands warm without getting too bulky. As the night goes on, it's bound to get colder. Temporarily warming up in a blanket or adding an external layer of clothes when the temperature becomes unbearable shouldn't affect your evening or your outfit. Bring a scarf or sweater, and keep a blanket in your bag. These can be used to sit on to avoid cold benches or bleachers early in the night, as well.

Although everyone has their own unique, individual gait, certain common behaviors can improve almost everyone's walking experience. Chief among these is your posture. As you walk, keep your head upright, your back straight, and your chin up. Maintaining this posture will keep your spine straight and help you breathe by taking pressure off your diaphragm. Resist the urge to hunch or slouch as you walk. Over time, bad posture can lead to back pain, a stiff neck, and even more serious maladies. An effective walking motion uses nearly all of the muscle groups in the leg - not just one. As you walk, visualize pushing off with your back foot using your hamstrings and quadriceps and propelling yourself forward onto the heel of your other foot. Roll your foot forward, heel-to-toe, as you make your step. This brings your calf muscles into play - use them to keep your feet at the correct (elevated) angle for each step. Even though the majority of the muscles used to walk are in your legs and core, you'll still want to keep an eye on the posture of your upper body. Keeping your shoulders in a relaxed, pulled-back position serves several purposes. It maintains a stable, "vertical column" of support while you walk stretching from your neck to your hips. This works in conjunction with a straight back and an elevated chin to minimize the strain on the back as you walk, preventing injury in the long-term. Also, it's simply a good habit to get into to prevent slouching, which, as previously noted, can result in shoulder pain  and strain. Finally, pulling your shoulders back makes you look good by projecting confidence and strength. This is a small but not insignificant point - why look mediocre while you walk when you can look great and protect yourself from injury in the process? For most, this should be second nature. As you walk, let your arms hang naturally at your side. Your arms should begin to swing in small arcs as you start to walk - the quicker you walk, the larger the arcs. Moving your arms is a natural part of...

Although helpful for those collectors who collect comic books for the stories or the artwork, reprint comics such as "Famous First Editions" have nowhere near the monetary value of the original issues they are reprints of. The only reprint exception is Superman #1, which reprinted the Superman story in Action Comics #1. It was the first comic named for a superhero character, however, and subsequent issues featured original stories of the Man of Tomorrow. As comic book companies became aware of the collector market, they began pandering to it with various gimmicks designed to boost sales. Although these gimmicks made money for the comics companies, these comics were produced in large enough quantities that they provide little value for collectors who collect for profit. Such gimmicks include:  Shipping new comics pre-bagged. Although collectors bag their comics to preserve their value, buying a comic already bagged forces the buyer to choose whether to keep the comic in its bag to preserve its value or open the bag to read it and reduce its value. The hope was that buyers would buy 2 copies, 1 to read and 1 to keep. Variant covers. Some comics were released with 2, 3, or even over 50 different covers, each representing a different scene in the story inside. While some of these are incredibly valuable, without knowing what you are looking for, you could spend money on books with virtually no value. Since the mid-2000s, most variants are either released tied to an event (comic-con, or store release), or limited based on the number of copies of a comic that a store orders (1 variant per 100 copies of the normal cover that the store purchases). Knowing how rare a book is an how many were printed makes all of the difference in the value potential. Gimmick covers. In addition to variant covers, other cover gimmicks used include holograms, foil stamping, or glow-in-the-dark covers. Some gimmicks may have been tied to milestone issues, such as the silver foil cover for Issue 25 of Valiant's "Magnus, Robot Fighter,"...

Although individuals’ coloration span a very wide range of tones, there are only two basic types of skin tone: warm and cool. Warm complexions have yellow undertones, whereas cool complexions have pink undertones. Though your skin may grow lighter or darker depending on how tan you are (whether from purposeful tanning or just from seasonal sun exposure), your skin tone will remain constant. The skin on your wrist, elbows, and temples is very thin and has blood vessels close to the surface. If your skin color is light enough, you’ll be able to see the veins through the skin in these three locations. ” The skin on your face often has reddish tones that might lead you to believe you’re cool-toned, but the red might be coming from hormones, if you’re a woman, or sun exposure. Because of this, you want to use the skin on your throat and chest for this tape, not on your face.  Hold a piece of clean white paper up to your throat and chest. Look at what colors jump out of your skin when juxtaposed against the white piece of paper. Blue and pink colors mean you have cool-toned skin. Green and gold colors mean you have warm-toned skin. The coloration for neutrals might fluctuate depending on the time of year and sun exposure. ” Again, you don’t want to compare colors against your face tones, so don’t use earrings for the jewelry test. Instead, you want to use necklaces or bracelets to analyze your coloration. You need gold and silver jewelry for this test. Under good natural lighting, look at how your skin appears against each color of jewelry.  Which metal makes your skin look brighter and healthier? If you prefer gold against your skin, you are warm-toned. If you prefer silver against your skin, you are cool-toned. People with cool-toned skin tend to get sunburn more easily, whereas people with warm-toned skin tend to tan, rather than burn.  Don’t overexpose yourself to the sun just to check whether your skin burns or tans! Instead, rely on past experience. If you have painful memories of sunburn, you’re probably...

Although it is rare, a toddler’s nosebleeds could be a sign of a medical condition that prevents blood from clotting effectively. Your pediatrician can order tests that will check for these conditions. In most cases, toddlers with clotting disorders come from families with a history of such conditions. If you, your spouse or partner, or any other close members of your family have problems with effective blood clotting, you should talk to your child’s pediatrician immediately. Consider, too, whether your toddler has other areas of bleeding or easy bruising. If your toddler gets a lot of nosebleeds, apply a product such as Vaseline at night to keep the nasal passages moist. You can also moisten the nasal passages with saline spray, drops, or gels. You may also want to get a humidifier for your child’s room. Humidifiers keep the air from getting too dry, which may help prevent future nosebleeds. You may be able to prevent nosebleeds by keeping your child’s room free of dust and other allergens, which can dry the mucous membranes and cause nosebleeds. Keep your child away from smoke; if anyone in the household smokes, make sure they do so outside. Pay particular attention to carpets, curtains, and stuffed toys, which can trap allergens. Toddlers are curious creatures, prone to sticking fingers up their noses. If you keep your child’s nails trimmed, he will be less likely to cause a nosebleed. Make sure your child is eating lots of healthy, unprocessed foods. Avoid artificial sweeteners, which can suppress the immune system. Also try to incorporate foods high in omega 3 fats, as these can help boost the immune system and strengthen blood vessels

Although it might seem tempting to fight back with bullying, it can cause further problems.  Bullies enjoy feeling as though they have power over you or that they are able to get a reaction from you.  Bullying back or getting angry will let the bully know they are hurting you.  Do not respond to the bully with more aggression in order to get them to leave or stop. Tell them calmly to stop bullying you.  For example, “You are being really uncool right now.  Please stop.”  or “That's enough.  Don't talk like that again.” Avoid getting angry or sarcastic in your response. Try to keep your response short. If they don't stop, walk away from them. Do not fight with a bully, either with words or physically. Bullies try to take away your own sense of power and self worth so that they can enact their own power over you.  Every time you give into the bully's tactics, you make it more likely that they will bully you again in the future.  Standing up to the bully by denying their demands will likely stop them from identifying you as a target. Bullies will often act aggressively or intimidatingly in order to cause you to act how they want.  They will use negative tactics to hurt you in some way, causing you to give in and do and feel what they want you to.  Learning when you are in the presence of a bully can help you avoid being around them.  Review some of the following qualities of a bully: Bullies will often be individuals who engage in risky behaviors such as heavy drinking or crime. Contrary to popular belief, bullies will usually be very popular and overly self confident. Bullies may either physically or verbally attempt to harm another person. Violence or bullying may be a learned behavior from a bully's home life.

Although most whitening strips are applied and used in a similar manner, some brands may have different instructions.  Always read the instructions fully and be aware of any side effects before using any whitening strip or whitening product.  Misuse can cause damage to your teeth, gums, and health. Instructions can vary between brands, always fully read the instructions before use. Before you apply your whitening strips, you will need to brush your teeth.  If you apply them without brushing your teeth, you may inadvertently trap food or bacteria under the strip and the surface of your teeth will not be in contact with the whitening substance, which can lead to an unappealing looking result.  Brushing your teeth can also help remove any plaque that may block the whitening effects of the strip on the enamel.  Brushing your teeth will allow the hydrogen peroxide in the whitener to penetrate your enamel better.  Brush your teeth at least a half hour before you apply the strips to let saliva clean away any excess fluoride and get the enamel ready for whitening. Before you apply the strips to your teeth, take a moment to make sure you are applying the right strip to the correct location.  Some whitening strips will have special strips for top and bottom teeth and all will have a certain side of the strip that must contact the teeth.  Take a moment and learn which strip goes where.  Apply the side with any gel to your teeth.  This gel is the whitening agent and must contact the entire surface of your teeth except the gums to work properly. The smooth side of the strip will have no whitening gel and is there only to help you apply the strip. Having determined which way your strips need to be applied, place them over your teeth, with the gel coated side making contact with the surface of your teeth.  Make sure the strip covers your teeth entirely, working out any bumps or uneven areas.  Try drying the surface of your teeth with a napkin or towel before applying the strips. This will help increase the whitening effect....

Although not scientifically verified, there are several herbal remedies which are thought to help hypertension. Holly leaf extract is used as a tea in China and is supposed to help blood vessels enhance circulation and blood flow to the heart. This is available in liquid form, and is usually taken as a few drop ingested throughout the day. Hawthorn berry extract is purported to improve the supply of blood to the heart and also help to support the metabolism of the heart. This is available in a capsule or tablet for and is generally taken 500 to 1500 mg daily. It is important to note that this can interact with other medications and should not be taken in conjunction with other medication for high blood pressure. There are other herbal remedies that might work to help prevent a heart attack as well. Hibiscus can act like a diuretic and may have actions that mimic ACE inhibitors. Make a tea with one to two teaspoons of dried hibiscus in one cup boiling water. You can drink this tea two to three times daily.  Coconut water contains potassium and magnesium, both of which help with normal muscle function. It is recommended to drink eight oz, one to two times daily. Make sure you keep a check on the calories you are consuming, since coconut water is not calorie free. Ginger-cardamom tea is used in India to naturally reduce blood pressure. This can be drunk one to two times daily. There are some nutritional supplements which have be shown to decrease the amount of fat in your blood and lessen your chances of a heart attack. Try buying fish oil. Omega-3 fatty acids, specifically the ones called DHA and EPA, are found in over the counter as supplements in pill form. You can also get omega-3 fatty acids from oily fish such as anchovies and tuna or nuts (especially walnuts), flaxseed and leafy vegetables. Eating one to two servings of oily fish or taking 1 gram of a fish oil supplement daily has been shown to reduce levels of triglycerides and the risk of death from heart disease.

Although physical activity is good for people suffering from diabetes, you should clear it with your doctor before doing more intense workouts like weight training. Your doctor will perform an exam to determine if you're healthy enough for exercise. According to the American Diabetes Association, your doctor may advise against weight training if you have the following diabetes complications. If your doctor advises against weight training, that doesn't mean you can't be in shape- try lighter activities like walking or jogging.  Retinopathy. This condition causes capillaries in the retina to balloon in size and form pouches. Weightlifting is usually not advised with this condition because the strain of lifting can burst the pouches and damage the eye.  Neuropathy. This condition affects the body's nervous system and inhibits body systems from working properly. Dehydration makes this condition worse, so your doctor may advise against exercising or will recommend that you take adequate breaks to prevent complications.  High blood pressure. Heavy lifting can over strain your body if you have high blood pressure. Your doctor may recommend training with lighter weights and cardio exercises to get your blood pressure down before allowing you to move on to heavy weights. If you have diabetes, you know that wounds can take a long time to heal and can easily get infected. If you workout with bad shoes, blisters and abrasions can form on your feet and cause potentially serious complications. To prevent this, always practice good foot care when working out.  Get a pair of shoes with good cushioning. They should fit well- shoes that are too big or small will rub against your feet and cause abrasions. When trying on a pair of shoes, walk around and make sure there are no pressure points where the shoe rubs against your foot. Always check your shoes for pebbles or other objects before putting them on. Also wear smooth socks, and don't reuse them before washing. Sweaty socks can increase your risk for athlete's foot and other...

Although requirements may vary amongst organizations, there are some common elements that you will want to include in your written warning.  Review the following points of information to build an informative and effective written warning:  Include the names of any parties involved. The nature of the offense. The date and time the offense occurred. Details of the warning and the time period involved in the warning. Instructions for the employee regarding how to remedy the situation. Consequences of this infraction as well as the consequences of future issues. When you are writing your warning you will need to be as specific and detailed as possible.  Including clear and concise details in your warning will help convey the exact issue at hand and allow your employee to better make corrections and avoid further offenses in the future.  Include clear statements that describe the issue at hand.  For example "On June 23rd, you were reported as having been involved in a physical altercation with another employee". Warnings should make clear what will happen if the employee's behavior is not corrected.  For example "If another infraction occurs, we will issue only one final warning before termination." Although the warning is written, you won't be sending it through company mail or email.  Delivering a written warning will need to be done in person, during a private meeting with the employee in question.  This will allow for direct conversation between both parties and a clear communication of the issue at hand.  Make the meeting for the earliest date available. Give some positive feedback as well.  Don't just focus on the negative during the meeting. Once you have written the warning and delivered it to the employee, you will want to make sure that the employee understands the warning. Discuss the terms of the warning, the duration it will last, why they are receiving it and how they can work to correct their course of action in the future.   Most written warnings will have a place for signatures.  Have your...

Although small in size, your hamster probably meant a lot to you. Acknowledge your grief and give yourself time to process the loss. There's no timetable for grieving—it may take you a few days, maybe longer. Consider writing your feelings down if you're having trouble processing your thoughts. Pet loss support groups help pet owners manage the grief of losing a pet. Many veterinary schools have pet loss hotlines that you can contact. Your veterinarian, or even other pet owners, can recommend some local pet loss support groups that you can contact. The staff at your local humane society may also be able to recommend pet loss support groups. Children can have a hard time dealing with the death of a pet. If you have children, encourage them to talk about how they feel about your hamster's death. Do not buy another pet for your children to make them feel better. Give them time to express how they feel about your hamster's death before bringing a new pet into the home. You may be the type of person who does not grieve for long over the loss of a pet. Or, you might need a long time before you are ready to even think about getting another hamster (or another type of pet). Do not feel the need to rush into buying another pet.  Remember that a new pet is  not  a replacement for your hamster.  You will know when the time is right for you to get another pet.

Although some under-eye circles can be reduced or eliminated by the lifestyle choices we make, other culprits are not so easily taken care of. Genetics, ageing, and even the color of your skin may make dark under-eye circles an unwelcome fact of life. For those people who suffer from less controllable variables, solutions in the form of makeup exist.  Apply a salmon-tone corrector to the inside corners of your eyes and blend out with a brush. Be sure to dab, not pull. Apply concealer to the space beneath your eye in a triangular shape, again dabbing and not pulling.   Avoid getting any concealer or corrector too close to your bottom lash line, as this may result in makeup malfunctions. A nude shadow over the entire lid helps to even out color and can serve as a base for other colors.  Use a darker shade of medium brown along the crease line to help give more definition. Highlight the area directly underneath your eyebrow and above the crease with a very light color.  Using non-neutral, colored eyeshadow can provide extra drama for the eyes, but not all colors are considered equally appropriate for all eye colors. Generally speaking, your optimal eyeshadow colors will be complimentary, or opposite, to the actual color of your eyes on the color wheel.   People with green eyes should consider violets, purples, chestnuts, plums, and browns. Blue eyed individuals most often look best in eye shadow shades that are gray, rose, mauve, peach, orange, and bronze. Hazel and brown eyed people possess a neutral eye color and therefore can usually wear any color from purple to amber. Using a dark, usually black but sometimes brown, eyeliner, draw a dark frame for your lashes as close to them as you can get. Try to keep the application as even as possible, but thicker on top. Dark colors make spaces appear smaller, and by contrast light colors make them appear bigger, so applying a bright color to the skin nearest your eyes will help them to appear larger.

Although stopping a sneeze may seem like the most polite thing to do, it's usually not the best option once a sneeze has already started. A sneeze is your body's natural way of expelling irritants from your nasal passage, so by holding your sneeze in, you're holding the irritants in as well. In rare instances people have even been injured by holding a sneeze in. Some of the most common injuries include ruptured blood vessels and broken ribs. Although you will still be holding on to irritants, suppressing the urge to sneeze is not as bad as trying to stop a sneeze that has already started. There are various things you can try to suppress the urge to sneeze as soon as you feel it:  Try rubbing your nose Try breathing heavily through your nose Try rubbing the area between your upper lip and the bottom of your nose If you're around a lot of people and you feel a sneeze coming on, the most polite thing to do is to create as much distance between yourself and the other people as possible. If you can, politely excuse yourself and take a few steps away. If you don't have time for that, try turning your body away from everyone else. No matter how much distance you create, it's still important to contain your germs by sneezing into a tissue or into your sleeve. Research has found that most people have at least some control over the way they sneeze and are able to alter their sneezes to be quieter when in public. Try working on quieting your sneeze even when you aren't in public to see just how much control you do have.  Sneezes do not necessarily need to be noisy. It has been found that that "achoo" sound that many English-speaking people make while sneezing is entirely cultural, not physiological. Deaf people do not make any such noise when sneezing. It might be possible to suppress the reflex to make a sound if you become more conscious of it.  To practice sneezing more quietly, try clenching your teeth, but still allowing your lips to open, as you sneeze.  Coughing at the same time as you sneeze might also help you...

Although the exact reason why some people are more susceptible than others to experiencing panic attacks is unknown, researchers believe there are several contributing factors. Hereditary is one of the possible causes. This is the passing on of certain traits from parents to children. Studies have shown that children of parents who suffer from some type of anxiety disorder are more likely to have an anxiety disorder later in life. Additionally, research shows that if one twin of an identical set has an anxiety disorder, the probability of the other twin also having an anxiety disorder ranges from 31-88 percent. Childhood circumstances can also contribute to anxiety. Although further research is needed, some studies suggest that children were more likely to have an anxiety disorder later in life if: they were raised in households whose parents had an overly cautious view of the world, had parents who set very high standards or were overly critical, or had parents who denied or suppressed their childrens’ feelings or self-assertion. The last common cause of anxiety attacks is cumulative stress, or stress experienced overtime. Chronic stress and exhaustion can be a result of cumulative stress, which is how it greatly contributes to anxiety or panic. Serious life events such as a divorce, bankruptcy, or children leaving the home, can all contribute to anxiety when experienced together or in close succession. It also happens when there seems to be no break from changes and stress. Other serious life events that may trigger a panic attack are traumatic events such as car wrecks. Situations like this are extremely stressful on the body and mind and can trigger a physiological response to stress in the form of a panic attack. It is possible to have previous conditions, such as a mitral valve prolapse or hypoglycemia, that can trigger a panic attack. Sometimes use of illicit drugs, medications, or vitamin deficiencies can also trigger a panic attack, and increase your risk of developing a panic disorder.

Although the talent of your contestants is the real selling point in this genre of game show, you also want to vary the challenges enough to both keep them on their heels and keep your audience engaged. Before you even begin filming your pilot episode, plan out the challenges you want your contestants to complete for the entire season of your show. Many performance competition game shows focus on skills that have a revered tradition with well-loved classics. If your game show falls into this category, the people who watch your show might respond well to watching modern-day contestants pay homage to the tradition of their art.  For a cooking game show, have contestants recreate classical dishes with a long tradition, such as chicken cordon bleu or a croquembouche.  For a singing game show, have contestants sing old standards that demonstrate their ability to step into a song imbued with someone else’s legacy — Aretha Franklin’s “Chain of Fools” or Frank Sinatra’s “New York, New York,” for example. While it takes a great deal of skill to execute a classical standard, asking your contestants to bring their own personality and point of view to a well-loved classic presents an interesting challenge. For a dancing game show, you might ask competitors to create new choreography for a song that has a beloved performance already associated with it — Gene Kelly’s performance of “Singing in the Rain,” for example. While you want to design many of your challenges to highlight your contestants’ creativity and innovation, showcasing their technical skills can also enthrall viewers. For a dancing game show, see how many pirouette turns dancers can do without losing their balance, for example. Sometimes, it’s hard to challenge a skilled batch of contestants. A good way to put pressure on them when challenging their technical abilities is to place a time restriction on their task. For a cooking game show, for example, you might see which contestant can Brunoise dice a pile of vegetables most quickly with an even cut. Though...

Although there is great overlap between these two concepts (and people often struggle with both simultaneously), there is a distinctive difference. Confidence refers to how you feel about your abilities. You may have self-confidence in your mathematical abilities, but little self-confidence when it comes to sports. Self-esteem, on the other hand, refers to how you view yourself overall, how you feel about yourself and whether or not you really like yourself. Confidence focuses on abilities, while self-esteem focuses on self-like and respect.   Do you believe in your abilities? Do you believe you are worthy of respect from both yourself and others? Your answer to these questions determines if you are suffering from low self-confidence or low self-esteem. The two differ slightly; nonetheless, you can use the same strategies to increase your belief in your abilities and your worthiness and self-love. Since confidence is derived from your own assessment of your abilities, it's situational. To some degree or another, your confidence changes depending on the context or skill-set in question. Perhaps, you feel very smart in math, but have trouble in science. Maybe you have amazing talent in singing, but your dancing skills are laughable. No one is good at everything; therefore, on occasion, we all have to deal with low confidence. The problem with occasional low confidence is whether you allow it to define you. This practice often starts in childhood. Many people start out with poor abilities as kids, and when those abilities are not strengthened or the child is not praised for being proficient in other areas, he begins to view himself as not good enough. This leads to overall poor self-esteem and a feeling of unworthiness. So, maybe you're not buying the idea that having low confidence in some abilities is a common human trait. If so, try this exercise. Take out a sheet of paper and a pen. Think about times when you really excelled. Think about times when you felt immense pride. Write out all the traits or...

Although you can always measure out coffee with spoons, a digital scale leads to quality and consistency. Go online or visit a kitchen supply store near you, then select a scale that measures both grams and ounces. Measuring coffee without a scale is difficult because all coffee varies in weight. For example, a spoonful of dark roast coffee weighs less than a spoonful of light roast coffee. Place a cup on the scale and hit the tare button to reset it. Pour out 6 fluid ounces (6.2 imp fl oz; 180 ml). This will be enough for a standard cup of coffee. Place another cup on the scale and reset it again. Add the coffee beans or grounds slowly until the scale reads .36 ounces (10 g). Coffee mugs are actually about 8 fluid ounces (8.3 imp fl oz; 240 ml). Add another .06 ounces (1.7 g) of coffee along with the extra 2 fluid ounces (2.1 imp fl oz; 59 ml) of water. Pick up a grinder at a local kitchen supply store or coffee shop to break down the beans easily. Grinders come in a variety of styles. Blade grinders are cheaper, but burr grinders can grind beans more finely to create stronger coffee. A blender, mortar and pestle, or hammer are a few common tools that can be used in place of a grinder. Do it the way you normally would. Using a machine works well since all you have to do is add the components. For other methods, such as a French press, you will have to boil the water on your own. For a French press, let the coffee steep in the water for 3 to 5 minutes before serving.

Although you can apply castor oil to dry hair, dampening your hair may help the oil absorb better. A quick way to dampen your hair is to fill a spray bottle with water, and spray just your scalp. Your hair should just be a little damp, not dripping wet. This will protect your clothes from getting covered in oil. It may also be a good idea to wear something you do not care about anymore, in case the oil drips past the towel. This way you can avoid getting oil stains on your good clothes. Do not use too much oil; a little bit goes a long way. Use your fingers to spread the oil between your hair roots and across your scalp. Massage your head with your fingertips using small, circular motions. You can also use an eye dropper to drip the oil onto various points on your scalp. This may be easier for you, and less messy. Be sure to massage the oil into your scalp for about five minutes. Scoop a little bit more oil onto your fingers, and rub it between your palms. Then, run your hands across your hair. Use your fingers to comb your hair; this helps distribute the oil. Again, start with a small amount. You do not need a lot of oil. Loosely pile your hair on top of your head. If you need to, you can keep it in place with a claw clip. Slip a shower cap over your hair. The shower cap will trap the heat inside, and it will keep your hair from drying out. Warm up a towel by soaking it with very hot water. Twist the towel to get any excess water out, then wrap it around your head. You can tuck the end of the towel in under your "turban," or you can secure it with a large hair clip. The heat from the towel will make the oil more effective. This technique is similar to a hot oil hair treatment, but does not involve using a hair dryer. You can also leave it on overnight, although there is little evidence that shows this is more effective. When you go to wash your hair, know that it may take a while before you get all the oil out. Some people find that washing with just conditioner, and skipping the shampoo, is more effective...

Although you can make a worthwhile amount of money this way, don't mistake this as an efficient money-making venture. Treat it as a game or a hobby and you'll have a much better time. Realize that most days, you won't find a significant amount of money. Money is one of the filthiest things that people touch on a regular basis, germ-wise. That's because it's handled by so many people, going from person to person all the time. When you're out money hunting, keep a bottle of hand sanitizer with you and don't be stingy with it. Especially after you check places like public restrooms and parking lots. When you're just out going about your business and you happen upon money, you can just store it in your pocket or purse. But if you go out with the intention of searching for money, it's best to have something to keep it in while you're out, like a coin purse or a small bag. It's also worth having a place to store your found money at home, like a piggy bank or something equivalent. There are three main methods for turning coins into cash. You can use a machine designed for such a thing, like Coinstar. You can take it to your bank and use their coin counting machine if they have one. Or you can retrieve some change roll paper from your bank and roll the change up yourself, then exchange it at the bank.  Whether or not using your bank to exchange your coins for cash is your best option depends on a few factors. Some banks have coin counting machines and some don't. Of the ones that do, some require a fee to use and some don't. Some banks will provide you with coin roll paper for free and some don't. Keep in mind that while Coinstar is the most convenient method, they also take 8 to 10 percent of your profit for their services. This can be avoided though, if you use their gift card program instead of turning in the voucher for cold hard cash. Your options for what to do with the money you find are unlimited. But since lost money hunting works better as a hobby than as a money-making method, it's probably wise not to use...

Although you can't attain normal hearing via natural ways or home remedies if you suffer from SNHL, advances in medicine and technology can certainly help your situation.  SNHL is the most common type of hearing loss among Americans, occurring in 23% of the population older than 65 years.  Excessive noise exposure is the most common cause of SNHL (particularly high frequency hearing loss) and it affects about 15% of Americans aged 20 to 69. A hearing aid is a small electronic device that is worn in or behind the ear. They make some sounds louder by magnifying sound vibrations entering the ear. A hearing aid has three main parts: it receives sound through a microphone, which converts sounds into electrical signals and sends them to an amplifier, which amplifies them and sends them to the cochlea through a tiny speaker. The sounds then cause little hairs to move within the cochlea, which stimulate nerves to send messages to the hearing center of the brain.  These days, hearing aids are quite small and hardly noticeable, so there's no need to be overly self-conscious if they are your best option. Hearing aids can work a little differently depending on their electronics, which are either analog or digital. If the hairs within your cochlea are too damaged due to an infection, tumor or head injury, then a hearing aid will not be of much use. Instead, you will need an invasive operation called a cochlear implant in order to regain functional hearing, which is an electronic medical device that does the work of the damaged cochlea to provide sound signals to the brain. A cochlear implant is significantly more expensive than a hearing aid. There are a variety of other technologies based on electronic amplification, electromagnetic energy transmission, radio signals or infrared waves that are designed to enhance sound either on their own or work in conjunction with a hearing aid or cochlear implant. Surgery may be needed to drain an inner ear infection, remove a tumor or reshape a genetic malformation in order to help...

Although you may have already decided on a type of paper to use if it is adding a patterned background or texture, you should choose on a type of paper for you invitations after designing them.  Visit local craft or print shops to see different styles of available paper. Pay attention to price, and consider the change in cost if you buy in bulk. Avoid glossy photo paper for your invitations, as this style gets damaged easily. Instead, try using matte photo paper or cardstock. Make sure that your paper can be cut to size or ordered in the correct size for your invitations. If you are considering layering pieces of paper for your invitations, make sure to choose the paper for each individual layer. You will likely need equal numbers of each piece. You can print your invitations at home or through a print shop. Often, if you design the invitations yourself you will have saved enough money to get a good print job done at a local shop.  If you print at home, make sure your printer is compatible with the paper you intend on using and that you have plenty of ink. Gather a reliable ink or toner, preferably the printer's original cartridges to give you the best quality possible. Call multiple print shops in your area to get estimates on prices. For simply printing and cutting your invitations to size, you may have only a very small fee to pay. Make sure that you print your invitations in the accurate size, so that you don't waste a lot of time and money re-printing your invites because of a sizing mistake. Once you have gotten all of your invites printed and cut to size, put them together! If there are multiple layers to each invited, secure them with glue or brads. Place the RSVP card or additional directions inside the invitation, and then the entire invitation into the envelope.  Remember that the envelope can be closed with a sticker or wax seal rather than just lick-and-sealed. Use your best, clear handwriting to address the envelopes or print stickers in a font matching your invitations. With all of them...

Although you may want to surprise your future-spouse with your proposal, purchasing a diamond is a large investment and signifies a lifetime commitment. If you are unsure on the style that she wants, it may be best to check with her to ensure that you make the right choice. If you do choose to surprise your future-spouse, make sure that the diamond will look flattering on her. Though many claim that you should spend approximately three months of your salary when buying an engagement ring, this idea is the result of clever campaigning by the De Beers diamond company. While spending that much on a diamond will surely show your partner you care, a less expensive diamond might suit your lifestyle and pocketbook better. In any case, have a firm idea of the price range you are willing accept before you go diamond shopping. For diamonds that will be worn by you, your spouse, or a romantic interest, you'll want to think about other diamond jewelry in the recipients wardrobe. The diamond and setting you buy should match other jewelry as broadly as possible.  What is the main color of the jewelry that she already wears? Silver or gold? Take this into account when choose the setting color. Consider asking the family and/or friend of the recipient what kind of diamond and setting they think would be best. Only do this if you trust them to keep your secret. If you're unsure what style of diamond the recipient of your stone will want, you might want to use trends to direct your search. Today's diamond market is defined by more natural and whimsical designs, like floral and celestial motifs. For a special occasion, you might give your significant other diamonds in the shape of:  The stars and moon An astrological sign Bejeweled butterfly wings

Although you shouldn’t over-shampoo your hair, condition it whenever possible. Conditioner doesn’t strip dirt away from hair, like shampoo does, but adds in the moisture and reduces cuticle swelling. Invest in a high-quality conditioner if you suffer from dry hair. The few extra dollars will give you a product that goes the extra distance for your hair. Leave-in conditioner comes either in cream or in spray-bottle form; use whichever method feels better on your hair. Towel-dry your hair until it’s partially dry, then apply leave-in conditioner and allow your hair to air-dry the rest of the way.  Leave-in conditioners come in a wide range of prices, and can be found in any grocer or convenience store.  As with any product, investing more money will yield better results. Alongside your daily routine, once or twice a week, you should apply an intensive moisturizing mask to your hair.  Apply the mask throughout your hair, from root to tip. Tie it back in a bun if you have long hair. Cover your head with a shower cap to prevent the mask from rubbing off on clothing and furniture. Leave the mask in for at least an hour. Take a shower to rinse the product from your hair. Many natural oils are a great source of nutrition and moisture for hair. If store-bought chemicals make you nervous, use natural oils instead. Use the same process as you would for store-bought masks: apply the oil throughout your hair from root-to-tip, cover it with a shower cap, and let it sit in your hair for at least an hour before rinsing it out.  Coconut oil is a popular super-oil that people use on both skin and hair.  Avocado oil is a good source of vitamins A, B, D, and E, as well as protein, amino acids, iron, copper, magnesium, and folic acid.  Argan oil not only treats dryness, but also can be used to treat split ends.  Olive oil is a great product that you probably just have sitting around your kitchen anyway. Again, some of the best products for your hair occur in nature. Honey is a great source of nutrients and adds moisture to dry or...

Always be on the prowl for new profiles to follow. When you come across an artist that grabs your attention, like, repost, or comment on a few of their songs. Chances are, they’ll appreciate the recognition and be motivated to take a closer look at your music in return.  Don’t blindly give out follows in hopes of being followed back. Not only is it lazy and impersonal, it can make you look desperate for attention. Being complimentary of other artists has the added benefit of making you seem friendly, which can help you win fans. Get in touch with artists that have a similar sound ask if they would be interested in working together. Collaborations can be a great way to make some truly special music with the power to reach twice the number of listeners. It also gives you an opportunity to do a little cross-promotion in the process. Include a link to your partner’s profile when you publish your collaborations to make sure you both get your due credit and exposure. Anytime you release a new song, tag it with as many relevant descriptive terms as you can think of. When a curious listener clicks one of those tags, your song will show up in the results. Some of the most far-reaching tags you can use include your artist name, the track title, the musical genre, and the names of artists or record labels that put out similar music.  You can also use your tags to describe the mood of the song, or even the instruments or equipment used to record it. A targeted tag list might look something like this: “#HibachiBeats #TwistOfFate #EDM #Electronic #ProgressiveHouse #DeadMau5 #MinistryOfSound #BigBeatRecords.” Sometimes, getting what you want is as simple as being willing to ask. Add a closing line to your bio or song descriptions saying something like “If you like what you hear, be sure to like, follow, and repost!” Your listeners will be more likely to fulfill your request if you’re explicit about it.  Put a clickable hyperlink to your profile or a particular track somewhere in plain sight to make it easy for users to copy...

Always face the direction of movement. If you face the wrong way on an escalator, you risk falling and injuring yourself. Remember, stand at the center of the step with your feet away from the sides, especially if you’re wearing sandals or Crocs. Similarly, keep an eye on loose clothing and make sure it doesn’t get stuck.  Never sit on the escalator step, even if you’re tired. It’s dangerous for you as well as for other passengers. Stand to the right on the steps so that people can walk past you if they're in a hurry. This is considered escalator etiquette. However, remember walking on the escalator is not considered safe behavior. Hold the handrail firmly with your back straight and arm relaxed. Don’t lean on the handrail or bend over the sides. Using the handrail properly will help improve your balance while you ride and help you catch yourself if you accidentally fall. Don’t rest bags or other items on the handrail as the handrail is only for hands. Keep all bags and packages firmly held in your free hand. Don’t rest them on the steps either as they can get caught in the moving parts. If you have too many bags to hold with one hand, it may be better to take the elevator.

Always let your cat come to you, rather than approach her. If you clearly see that your cat appears tense and is watching you intently (standing, tail stiff, pupils dilated), do nothing. Sit very still, preferably with your eyes closed. You'll be less of a threat this way and the cat will get used to your presence. On the other hand, if your cat is ready for contact, she may:  Stay in your sight after she finishes eating, instead of running for cover Take a few steps towards you Sit near you and wash (which shows she's relaxed) Sit with her back to you (which shows she trusts you) There are several ways you can appear less intimidating and make your cat feel more comfortable. Lie down, if space allows. Being on her level keeps you from towering over her. Avoid eye contact, since direct eye contact is a challenge or threat display in cat language. Instead, turn your head aside and look away. If you wear glasses, you may even want to take them off since the lenses can look like large eyes to cats. This may look like a threat. Don't feel like you have to rush things. Eventually, your cat will begin trusting and approaching you. When this happens on a regular basis, the cat will then voluntarily bump her head against your hand or body. This bumping puts her scent onto you and shows that she's accepting you. You can encourage your cat to come closer to you by offering tasty treats. Rest your arm on the floor and scatter a few treats around you. Let the cat pluck up courage to come and eat the treats. Gradually, set treats closer to you so she can approach without feeling threatened. Allow them to play or eat near each other. Of course, this will be a whole other process as you will have to start from a longer distance and move them closer each day. Of course it would be helpful to have someone else involved in this. When your cat signals (by bumping her head against you) that she's ready for more contact, you can rub her ears or chin. Take it slowly and start by just extending a single finger to rub her. Don't...

Always use a good quality mulch that has been properly processed. Mulch made from diseased or insect-infested trees can spread the disease or insects to your hydrangeas. Therefore, mulch must be composted properly to eliminate these potential hazards.  Shredded bark mulch or bark chunks sold in bags at garden centers are the safest option, but many companies that sell bulk mulch also offer a good quality product. Bagged mulch at garden centers should state right on the bag that the mulch has been composted or sterilized. If you are buying mulch in bulk, make sure to ask the company for their assurance that the mulch has been properly processed. If there are huge, steaming piles of mulch at the bulk mulch yard and large equipment used for turning the mulch, this is a good indication that the mulch has been properly composted. It is possible to encourage hydrangeas to bloom in your preferred color - pink or blue - by altering the acidity level of the soil. Blue hydrangeas prefer acidic soil, while pink hydrangeas need a more alkaline soil. Therefore, using an acidic mulch will alter the pH of the soil and support the growth of blue hydrangeas.  Spent coffee grounds make a good ‘acid’ mulch – ask your local café if you can take a bag of theirs. They usually throw their coffee grounds away, so this shouldn't be a problem. Other suitable acidic mulches include sphagnum peat moss, pine needles (also known as ‘pine straw’), shredded or chipped pine bark (also known as ‘pine bark nuggets’), or similar mulches made from cypress or eucalyptus. Alkaline soil is necessary to produce pink hydrangeas, however it is harder to find alkaline mulches. Therefore you may need to use a combination of neutral mulches and alkaline dressings in order to produce pink flowers.  Try applying a neutral pH mulch (such as regular compost) to the soil surrounding your hydrangeas. This will not make the soil more alkaline, but it will not make it more acidic either. To boost the alkaline properties of the soil, try adding a dressing of...

Always use cold water for this, as hot water can dilate your skin's pores and let the odor-causing oils and dirt penetrate further. Create a nice lather with the soap and scrub your hands together thoroughly before rinsing them with cold water. In addition to neutralizing odor-causing compounds, mouthwash can kill the bacteria on your hands that can cause odor. Scented varieties will also lend a minty smell to your hands that can cover up any remaining odor. Simply take any stainless steel item (such as a piece of silverware or a mixing bowl) and rub it all over your hands under cold running water. Continue until the odor is neutralized.  Any stainless steel item will work for this method, including the basin of your sink if you have a stainless steel model. You can buy stainless steel bars of soap that are designed specifically for removing odors from your hands. This method is great for removing the smells left from garlic or onions. When you rinse your hands with vinegar, you don’t need to rub your hands together. Simply splash on some vinegar and let your hands air dry. If you want to reduce the vinegar smell, you can wash your hands with soap and water afterwards. Vinegar is good for removing smells left from fish or onions. Pour 1 teaspoon (4.9 ml) into your hands and rub them together until the rubbing alcohol or hand sanitizer evaporates and your hands are dry. Since alcohol can be very drying on your hands, it's best to only try this method once and move on to another if the odor still lingers.
