It helps to begin by sorting your data in numerical order, from lowest to highest. This will ensure that you do not miss any values. Then select the value at the end of the list. For example, suppose you are testing the precision of a scale, and you observe five measurements: 11, 13, 12, 14, 12. After sorting, these values are listed as 11, 12, 12, 13, 14. The highest measurement is 14. Once your data has been sorted, finding the lowest value is as simple as looking at the beginning of the list. For the scale measurement data, the lowest value is 11. The range of a set of data is the difference between the highest and lowest measurements. Just subtract one from the other. Algebraically, the range can be expressed as:  Range=x(max)−x(min){\displaystyle {\text{Range}}=x(max)-x(min)} For the sample data, the range is: Range=x(max)−x(min)=14−11=3{\displaystyle {\text{Range}}=x(max)-x(min)=14-11=3} When reporting data, it is important to let the readers know what you have measured. Because there are different measures of precision, you should specify what you are reporting. For this data, you would report Mean=12.4, Range=3, or simply that the Mean=12.4±3. The mean is not actually part of calculating the range or precision, but it is generally the primary calculation for reporting the measured value. The mean is found by adding up the sum of the measured values and then dividing by the number of items in the group. For this set of data, the mean is (11+13+12+14+12)/5=12.4.

It is a dead giveaway if you refuse to "wake up" no matter how many times someone calls your name or shakes you. People who are really sleeping wake up from disturbances. If you start smiling when someone is trying to wake you up, you will give yourself away. Instead, groggily moan and act irritated that you were woken up. It takes a little while for people to regain their clarity when they are woken up suddenly. Have you ever woken someone up by calling them? Think of how you could tell they were sleeping. They probably seemed disoriented and their voice may have been muffled. If someone else is in the room with you and there is a loud noise, like thunder or an ambulance, move a little bit so the other person can tell your sleep was disturbed. You don’t have to jump out of bed wide awake. We sleep through loud noises all the time, and we may never remember them, but often our sleep is slightly disturbed.

It is a misconception that some people are just naturally positive. In reality, optimism takes practice. You can develop a bubbly personality by working to bolster your optimism.  Become aware of your “self-talk,” or the thoughts that you have about yourself. Don’t say anything about yourself that you wouldn’t say about a friend. When you have a negative thought, try to alter it. Instead of thinking, “I’ve never done this before,” try to tell yourself, “This is an opportunity to learn something new.” Try to be optimistic when you talk with your friends too, such as by pointing out the positive in a situation. For example, if a friend is worried about an upcoming exam, don't join in on worrying about the test with your friend. Instead, you might say something like, "You are a great student! I am confident that you are going to do a great job! But for now, let's enjoy this beautiful day!" Negativity leads to more negativity. So even if something is bothering you, try to let it go rather than complaining about it. Complaining only spreads your misery around to others (which is decidedly un-bubbly). Embody a bubbly disposition by breaking the habit of complaint.   If you really need to air your complaints, try writing them down. Another option is to speak to a therapist. If you want to exude a bubbly disposition, you can’t be hampered down by stress. Find some methods of stress-relief that work for you and practice them regularly.  Get a massage. Go for a walk. Diffuse essential oils (like lemon or lavender) in your home or office. Try to relieve your stress before it even becomes a problem. When you feel genuine gratitude in your daily life, it becomes much easier to exude bubbliness. Develop and grow your experience of gratitude by keeping a gratitude journal.   Get a notebook, and write down five things you are grateful for each day. In time, your gratitude will grow and grow! ” The chores and monotony of daily life can easily bring you down. You may find yourself grumbling, “I have to go to work,” or, “I have...

It is also important for you to see your primary care physician because there are several medical conditions that can cause mood swings that look like bipolar disorder, and it is important to rule those out. Your doctor will complete a physical exam to rule out any other conditions and then refer you to a mental health professional, such as a psychiatrist or psychologist. Your doctor may ask you to describe your symptoms. They will also review your medical history. There are two types of bipolar disorder: bipolar I disorder, which is the most severe type, and bipolar II disorder, where you have only depression and not mania. Depending on your symptoms, a mental health professional can determine which type you have. There are several different types of medications that can help to treat the symptoms of bipolar disorder. Your psychiatrist may suggest trying several different ones to find the right ones for you. You may be given mood stabilizers, atypical antipsychotics, and antidepressants.  Always talk to your psychiatrist about the possible risks and side effects of these medications. If you notice any troubling side effects, talk to your psychiatrist right away. Your psychiatrist may adjust your dosage or switch you to a different medication. Do not stop taking your medication without talking to your psychiatrist first. Stopping your medication can lead to a rebound or make your symptoms worse. You may also experience withdrawal symptoms. Therapy can be an effective treatment for bipolar disorder. Your psychiatrist may recommend therapy treatments like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). CBT allows you to examine how your thoughts affect your emotions. This therapy can also help you change negative thinking patterns and behaviors. It can help you manage your symptoms better and avoid a relapse. To do CBT, you will work with a therapist on a regular basis to treat your symptoms. Interpersonal therapy can help you reduce the level of stress your disorder causes you in day to day life. Stress can be a major...

It is always important you talk to your healthcare provider first to let her know your symptoms and to confirm there is nothing to be concerned about. Your doctor can also diagnose the underlying cause for fever and treat it instead of just treating the symptom itself.  Some common causes for fever during pregnancy include cold, flu, food poisoning, and urinary tract infection (see next section for more details). Do not wait to contact your doctor if the fever is associated with other symptoms, such as rash, nausea, contractions, or abdominal pain. Go to the hospital if you have a fever and your water breaks.  Contact your doctor if your fever does not improve within 24-36 hours or immediately if you experience a fever above 100.4 F. A prolonged fever can have negative effects on the baby and/or increase the risk of miscarriage. If you are unable to get the fever down, contact your healthcare provider or midwife for further instructions.  Unless your doctor advises otherwise, you can try the next steps to reduce fever. A bath or a shower is an effective way to reduce fever. This is because when water evaporates off your skin it will draw heat and helps lower your body temperature.  Do not use cold water as this can lead to shivers which in turn can increase your body temperature. Do not use rubbing alcohol in the bath water because the vapors can cause harm. One way to reduce fever is to place a cool, dampened washcloth over your forehead. This helps draw heat out of your body and reduces your body temperature.  Another way to bring down fever is by using an overhead or standing fan to help remove heat from your body. Sit or lie under a fan. Use it on a low setting so you do not get chilled. It is important that you keep your body well hydrated and replenish the water that is lost during fever.  Drinking water helps keep you hydrated but also helps cool your body from the inside out. Eat warm broths or chicken soup that provide extra fluids. Drink beverages high in vitamin C, such as orange juice, or add a...

It is an equation that describes how the quantum state of a physical system changes in time. It is as central to quantum mechanics as Newton's laws are to classical mechanics. Solutions to the Schrödinger equation describes not only molecular, atomic and subatomic systems, but also macroscopic systems, possibly even the whole universe.  The most general form is the time-dependent Schrödinger equation which gives a description of a system evolving with time. For systems in a stationary state, the time-independent Schrödinger equation is sufficient. Approximate solutions to the time-independent. Schrödinger  equations are commonly used to calculate the energy levels and other properties of atoms and molecules.

It is best not to eat a big meal right before bed. However, if you haven’t eaten enough, you might wake up hungry, creating a fitful sleep. If you need to, have a small snack before going to bed, such as a banana and a glass of milk. Numerous studies show that tryptophan (an amino acid) increases sleepiness and reduces the amount of time it takes a person to fall asleep. The human body uses tryptophan to help produce serotonin, which is believed to be important for healthy sleep. Thus, eating tryptophan-rich foods may lead to better, more lucid dreams. Such foods include:  Turkey Chicken Fish Pumpkin seeds Milk Peanuts Soy Tofu This vitamin is important for a host of bodily functions. In addition, initial research shows that it is connected to the vividness of a person’s dreams. You can take a vitamin B6 supplement to make sure you get enough of it, or eat more foods that are high in this vitamin, including:  Banana Avocado Beans Beef Pork Nuts Poultry Corn Whole grains Fortified cereals and breads If you are trying to have good dreams, avoid coffee, caffeinated sodas, nicotine, and other stimulants. The effects of these stimulants can make it hard to sleep well. Similarly, you should avoid depressants like alcohol. While they may initially make you feel drowsy, they may disturb your sleep and prevent good dreams.

It is best to lay the paper horizontally so that you have plenty of room for drawing.  Using a compass to help you draw the circle will make sure that it is evenly sized and neat. If using a compass, gently hold both legs of the compass to avoid having the pencil end push out, enlarging your circle and making it uneven. Draw the circle to one side, not in the middle. For example, if you drew your first circle more to the right, then this circle should sit more to the left while still overlapping the first. Keep your compass at the same setting so that your two circles are the same size. If you do not have enough space, then it would be best to erase and start over, or to start over from scratch on a new piece of paper, with bigger circles. At the top of each circle, write the things you are comparing, such as books, people, movies, animals, et cetera. Where the circle overlaps in the middle, write “Both.” In each of the outer circles, list details about each thing that make it distinctly separate and different from the other thing. In the middle, list details that those two things have in common.

It is best to place all of the required materials on your desk, table, or wherever you plan to work. Below is what you will need to make and fly your kite:  8.5” by 11” sheet of printing paper, construction paper, or card stock A thin wooden stick or bamboo skewer Tape Lightweight string Lightweight ribbon Pencil Scissors Hole punch (optional) A nice breeze or light wind (6-15 mph) Place your paper in front of you in a horizontal position with the long sides at the top and bottom. Fold your paper in half so that the fold (seam) is on the left side. Use your pencil to make a dot at the very top of the folded paper, about 1.5” to 2” from the fold, depending on your desired wing size. Make another dot at the very bottom of the folded paper, about 1.5” to 2” from the opening. Imagine or draw a line that connects the two dots. Delta kites were first created in the 1940s by Wilbur Green and were designed with wings that fly well in lighter winds. Fold the paper along the line that you just made or imagined. Turn the paper over and fold that side exactly as you did in step 3. Be sure both sides are exactly the same. Use your tape to secure the folded sides along the middle seam. You should already see your kite taking shape. Place your thin wooden stick or bamboo skewer horizontally across the widest part of the wings. This section of the kite is also called the sail. Use tape to secure the stick into place. Be sure that your stick is not longer than the width of the kite. If it is, carefully use your scissors to shorten the stick. Draw a dot about a third of the way down the spine of your kite and about half an inch from the edge. Place tape over this dot and make sure the piece of tape is long enough to cover both sides. Use your hole punch to make a hole over the dot. This hole is the attachment point for the string.  The hole will be located at the narrow end of the flap, which is towards the top of the kite. If you do not have a hole punch, you can carefully use scissors to create the hole. The purpose of the...

It is commonly thought that closing vents and doors to unused rooms will reduce energy use, but doing this actually drives up the cost of your gas bill. Keep all the vents and interior doors in your home open to promote airflow. However, if you adjust a radiator valve to lower the temperature of a specific room, you can close the door to that room to prevent cooler air from leaking into warmer rooms. If you leave your windows or exterior doors open during cold months, the warm air will simply escape. Be sure to keep all your window and exterior doors closed. If there’s a gap beneath a door, roll up a towel and place it against the bottom of the door to block out the cold air. During the day, keep your blinds, shades, or curtains open to let the sunlight in. This will help your house warm up. When the sun goes down, close all your blinds, shades, or curtains to keep the warm air in. Insulated panels can keep cold air from seeping through your glass windows. These panels are typically made of foam board and can be found at home improvement stores. Measure your windows before heading to the store so you can purchase panels of the correct size. Press the panels against the windows, then use strips of magnetic tape to secure the panels to the window frame. During the cold months, putting plastic film insulation over your windows can help prevent warmth from escaping your home. This film can be found at home improvement stores and is easy to install. Generally, the film comes in pre-cut sheets, so you may need to use multiple sheets and/or trim some of the sheets down to fit over your windows. Simply press the adhesive side of the film against the window glass. Running ceiling fans clockwise will keep the air circulating throughout the room. This keeps the room warmer than running the fans counterclockwise. In the summer, you can switch the fans to counterclockwise keep the room cool.

It is easier to remove the tampon when you are seated on the toilet. Being seated will allow you to spread your legs apart and access the tampon. It will also help you angle your fingers so you can easily slide out the tampon. Sitting on the toilet will also ensure that any blood that drips out when you remove the tampon will go into the toilet. This will make for less mess, with no blood on your underwear or on the floor. Your tampon should have a white string that dangles off the end of the tampon. You should be able to look between your legs and find the string coming out of your vagina. If you do not see a string dangling out, it may have gotten stuck in your vagina throughout the day. Often, the string gets broken or tangled up when you exercise. You may need to use your fingers to probe around your vaginal opening for the string. Once you have located the string, you should grip it gently with two fingers. Then, carefully pull on the string to slide the tampon out of your vagina. It should slide out fairly easily with a gentle pull. If your tampon does not come out or appears to be stuck, you may need to seek medical attention. Sometimes tampons can get stuck if they are left in too long, if the string gets stuck in your vagina, or if you accidentally have sex while wearing a tampon. You should get the tampon removed as soon as possible by a doctor as leaving the tampon in can put you at a high risk of developing Toxic Shock Syndrome.

It is easier to see the stars and planets in the night sky if you live in a rural area. If you’re in the city, it will be much more difficult to see them because of light pollution. Try to find a spot away from stray light that shines off of buildings. The planets are rarely near one another in the night sky. Knowing where to see them is very important. A great way to find them is to locate them when they appear as part of a constellation.  Mercury: Mercury will be visible near the Sun. You’ll lose it in the Sun’s glare for most of the year, but it will return to view in the middle of August.  Mars: look low in the morning sky, Mars moves eastward. Jupiter: Jupiter is always located very far away from the sun. Saturn: look low in the Libra constellation to see this bright planet. The planets may have an apparition period but may earlier in the eastern hemisphere and later in the night in the western hemisphere. When you look at the apparition periods, take into consideration what part of the earth you’re on.

It is easy to say that a good child listens to her parents (and other authority figures) and does what she is told.  While this is normally true, it is more important that children learn to take responsibility for what they need to do.  As a child who strives to be your best, you need to accept that there are things you have to do, for the benefit of yourself and others.  The goal of being a good child isn’t really about giving your parents a little less grief (although they will welcome that).  Good children learn qualities that will help them become happy, successful, “good” adults. For example, you need to take responsibility for doing your homework and completing your chores, without constant reminders or resistance.  This will help you to become more self-motivated, self-sufficient, and successful in work and life as an adult. Every one of us (including adults) sometimes gets angry, frustrated, whiny, or stressed out.  There is no way to deny or avoid these emotions, and it would be unhealthy to do so anyway.  However, you can work on recognizing and managing your emotions more effectively.  Learning to control anger is one of the most important lessons for children.  When you feel anger welling up, simple steps like taking deep breaths, in the nose and out the mouth, and counting to five can help you calm and contain it.  Then, you can think more clearly about what caused the anger and what you can do differently next time to manage it.  Uncontrolled anger isn't always the cause of bad behavior, though.  Sometimes kids act out when they are upset, sad, confused, or lonely.  You might experience these emotions if you've been bullied in school, left out of a group activity, or rejected by a friend.  When you feel down, talk to an adult you trust.  If you can talk to your parents about your emotions, it can improve your relationship with them.  There is no shame in seeking help from a counselor or other expert if you need it, though. “Good boys and girls tell the truth.”  You may have heard this said to...

It is estimated that up to 74% of Americans have some level of speaking anxiety. While that large of a number experiences the fear in differing levels, many of them report that they are more fearful of public speaking than death. CA may start early in life as it is very prevalent in elementary school-aged children. Communication apprehension may come about as a result of genetics, as a personality trait, or even only in certain circumstances. You may be making a bigger problem out of the “worst case” than it really is. Consider what's the very worse that you expect to happen. If you have been exaggerating the power of your fear, you may start to notice that the potential repercussions that you have been worried about aren't all that bad. Regardless of how one interaction goes, for the most part it is not going to make or break anything major. You will probably not lose your job nor will one error ruin your life or health. If you fear speaking in front of strangers, in all reality there is a good chance they will not remember what happens for very long. You may also never see your audience again. Redefine what success means to you and acknowledge that using your voice, even with a bump or two in the road, is a win over the fear. Remember that the majority of the people listening to you at any given time also report some level of speaking anxiety. You taking the step to make the speech or communicate with others in any way is brave. There is a good chance what you are thinking is far worse than what the audience is thinking. Self-talk like “I'm an idiot” or “I'm going to make a fool of myself” will only make matters worse. Strive to attack these negative thoughts and think thoughts that are realistic and positive. You can challenge your negative thinking with questions like:  What would a friend say about my thoughts? What evidence do I have that this is true? What evidence do I have that this is not true? How many times has this terrible thing actually happened? Is my thinking based on how I feel rather than on facts?

It is extremely important that you do not touch your piercing with unclean hands. Before touching or cleaning your piercing, you should wash your hands with soap and hot water. Make sure you wash your hands for at least 20 seconds after lathering and then rinse with hot water. In order to avoid infection, you will need to clean your industrial piercing two times a day during the healing period, which may take anywhere from four weeks and six months. Work the cleaning into your daily schedule. For example, you can clean the piercing after breakfast and before going to bed each night.  If you do not clean your piercing regularly, it can become infected or take longer to heal. Keep in mind that industrial piercings take longer to heal than standard ones. When your piercing has healed, it should no longer be tender to the touch. However, it’s a good idea to make an appointment with your doctor or piercer to determine if your piercing has healed completely. Redness, red lines, or yellow discharge near your industrial piercing are signs the piercing could be infected. If you have these symptoms, or if you experience swelling or extreme pain, make an appointment with your doctor as soon as possible. If you see crustiness around your piercing, don’t pick at it. Leave it so the doctor can examine it and take a sample. An industrial piercing can take anywhere from one month to six months to heal. Apart from cleaning your piercing, it is important that you avoid soaking it during this time. You should not soak the piercing while taking a bath, showering, or washing your hair. You should also avoid swimming. It is important that you wear clean clothes and sleep on clean sheets while your piercing is healing. If you do not, you can invite germs into your piercing. This can lead to unwanted and potentially serious infections.  Change your clothes every day. Put clean sheets on your bed at least once per week.

It is generally improperly processed deli meats or unpasteurized dairy products that are responsible for carrying Listeria bacteria, but it is also found in soil and on vegetables. Pay attention to any outbreaks of listeriosis that are reported in your area, or to any products that have been recalled from the supermarket due to concern of bacterial contamination. The risk of a serious infection is low for a healthy adult; however, if you fall into a high-risk category (elderly, pregnant, or having an otherwise weakened immune system), you may want to think carefully about eating these types of foods. If you are pregnant, it is advisable to avoid soft cheeses (such as blue cheese, brie, feta, camembert, and Mexican-style cheese), as well as deli foods for the duration of your pregnancy, in order to diminish your risk of contracting listeriosis. If you contract listeriosis while pregnant, there is the possibility it can be fatal for your unborn baby. Listeria is a resilient bacteria that is hard to get rid of once it has contaminated food products. Even freezing is not enough to get rid of the bacteria. Listeria is killed by by cooking, so make sure all meats are thoroughly cooked all the way through.

It is good to set aside time when you and your coach can talk one on one. At the beginning of practice, ask your coach if they have a few minutes afterwards to talk. This will give them a heads up that you need to discuss something, and they will not leave immediately.  You can say, “Hey coach, can we chat after practice today? I have something I need to discuss with you.” If your coach tries to ask you what you want to talk about, tell them, “I’d like to discuss my future on the team. We can talk more after practice.” When the time comes, you should let your coach know directly that you want to quit. By stating it in a clear, confident tone, you will demonstrate that you are serious. You might want to let them know that you have thought this decision over carefully and that this the right decision for you.  You can say, “I’ve been thinking this over for several weeks now, and I think I have to quit.” Another way you can say it is “It’s time for me to move onto other things. I need to leave the team.” You should give your coach reasons why you want to quit. While they may want to change your mind, by stating why you want to leave, you will demonstrate that you have thought this decision through completely.  You might say, “I have to focus on my other work right now. My grades have been slipping, and I need to focus on my GPA so that I can get a good job.” You can say, “I’ve been having pains in my leg, and I went to the doctor. I have a torn meniscus, and I won’t be able to play for a while. I think this will give me some time to pursue some other interests in my life.” If you have a doctor’s or teacher’s note, now would be the time to present it. Say, “I have a note from my doctor if that would help explain the issue.” Perhaps you are quitting because of a problem on the team or maybe your coach can accommodate some of your needs. If there is a reason why you might stay, you should inform your coach what it is. They may be willing to work with you to fix the issue.  You might say, “I will be honest. I’ve had...

It is great to incorporate their interests into math problems. For example, if your daughter loves horses, use toy horses to demonstrate math facts. If possible, try to find a horse workbook. This may peak interest regarding the work that needs to be completed. Although they may seem detached sometimes, autistic children are eager learners. Give them constant reassurance—this is very essential when learning to keep them motivated. It will also keep them happier and associate learning time with positivity. Instead of dreading it, they may recognize it as a time they get positive attention. In terms of language, if your child or student has low verbal skills do not use responses that call for a 'yes' or a 'no'. The confusion associated with the language barrier may interfere with learning math concepts. Using multiple-choice based questions makes this barrier a bit easier to handle. Having children replicate your actions is highly successful. For example, you collect four blocks, then they collect four blocks. Show them how you're left with three books, once one is put somewhere else. In essence, you are training the child to mirror you. She'll slowly see the conclusions of your actions and be able to draw conclusions herself when you're not around. Be conscious of their skill level and go from there. Your child may not be at their appropriate grade level, so focus on their skill level instead. Certain areas of math may come easier to them than others. This means that you may need to approach certain math topics at a different skill level than the next.  Just because a child is developmentally behind in terms of speaking does not mean they will be behind in math. Sometimes, disinterest indicates that the work is not challenging enough. If this happens, try giving them harder work, or leaving a more difficult workbook out and seeing if they interact with it. Autistic children struggle with remembering sequences. If the child is able to read, write each instruction down. If the child struggles responding to the...

It is imperative that before applying makeup to another person, you always practice good hygiene and wash your hands to prevent the spread of disease.  Wet your hands under the tap of the sink with clean, running water. Apply soap. Lather the soap by rubbing your hands together with it in between your hands, scrubbing between fingers, under your nails, and on the backs of your hands. Do this for approximately 20 seconds. Turn the tap back on and rinse your hands thoroughly under the clean, running water. Dry your hands using a clean tower, paper towel, or you can air dry them. If you do not have clean water and soap available to you, you can use hand sanitizer as an alternative. However, hand sanitizer will not eliminate all types of germs and is not quite as effective as washing with clean water and soap. There are many types and colors of eye pencils available. You will want to choose one based on the kind of look you are going for.  Jumbo eye pencils are much larger in diameter than standard eye pencils. These can be used to apply a thick layer of eyeliner to the eyelid or even as an eyeshadow. Standard eye pencils are about the same diameter as a regular pencil used for writing. Sometimes the diameter is even smaller than that. Smaller eye pencils can be used to create a thin, defined line on the client’s eyelid. Eye pencils come in virtually every color and they can also come in shimmery and metallic colors. Browse the selection in stores near you or online to see what is available. In most cases, your imagination is the limit! Depending on the look that you would like to create, you will want to sharpen the eye pencil. This can be done with a regular pencil sharpener or with one specifically marketed for makeup. You will need to find a sharpener that is a suitable size for the eye pencil you would like to use.  A sharper pencil will create a thinner, more precise look. A dull pencil will create a thicker, less precise look. If this is what you desire, you may decide not to sharpen the pencil. You can...

It is important not to overdo this treatment or you hair could start looking greasy. Some think that coconut oil can help protect the proteins in your hair from the natural wear and tear it goes through day-to-day, such as being exposed to the sun and wind.  Warm up the coconut oil in a pan or the microwave just enough for it to melt. Do not try to apply hot coconut oil to your hair. Keep in mind that the coconut oil will become solid again once it cools, so use this treatment right away. Aloe vera may help your hair to grow faster and look more radiant. To make the mask, you’ll need to mix 1 ripe avocado, 1 tablespoon of linen oil, 1 tablespoon of warm honey, 1 tablespoon of lime juice, 3 tablespoons of aloe vera gel, and 2 egg yolks. Massage this concoction into the roots of your hair and along the length of it as well. Wrap a warm towel around your hair for about half an hour, and then shampoo and condition as you normally would. . Massaging your scalp may help to release natural oils and this could lead to hair that is silky and smooth. Use your fingertips to massage your scalp all over. Use small circular motions to perform the massage. Repeat this treatment once daily.

It is important that you are respectful of other guests at your holiday destination. This means you need to be aware of your pet and its behavior at all times. You should stop barking, meowing, or chirping immediately and pick up all pet waste. Never leave your pet unattended in your hotel room. If you need to go somewhere your pet is not welcome, you should take your pet to a kennel for the duration of your day trip. If at all possible, you will want to bring your pet's bed with you to your holiday destination. You will want to make sure your pet feels at home during your holiday, and bringing along its bed will help ease the uneasiness that comes from being in a new or foreign location. If you can't bring your pet's bed, make sure you at least bring a familiar item, such as a blanket, that your pet can rest upon for the holiday. Your pet will be in a location that is not its home during your holiday travel. This can result in anxiety, uneasiness, or even excess energy. Bringing along your pet's favorite toy can help soothe frayed nerves and can also help your pet work out some of the pent up energy that it acquired from your road trip or the plane ride to your holiday destination. When traveling with your pet, it is important that you bring along enough food and snacks for the holiday. It is not wise to attempt to buy pet food once you reach your destination. You might not be able to find your pet's usual brand of food, and abruptly changing your pet's diet can wreak digestive and emotional havoc on your already disoriented pet.

It is important to be aware that there is a small chance that the home birth does not proceed as smoothly as expected. Complications to plan for and to be aware of include:  Labor that fails to progress quickly enough (as labor that stops mid-way or is moving very slowly can be dangerous for your baby). Finding meconium (feces) in the amniotic fluid — this can put your baby at higher risk of complications following birth and may be a sign that the baby is being stressed by the labor. Any signs that your baby is otherwise in distress, such as abnormal vital signs, or any signs along the way that your baby has health concerns or abnormalities. Problems with the placenta, such as "placental abruption" (when the placenta detaches from your uterus before delivery), or if the placenta is unable to be fully delivered following the birth of the baby (this poses a risk for dangerous bleeding for mother). Problems with the umbilical cord, such as "umbilical cord prolapse" (where the cord drops into your vagina before the baby and can potentially compromise your baby's flow of nutrients). Excessive vaginal bleeding. If any of the above complications do ensue, you will likely be advised to transfer the birthing process to the nearest hospital. Ideally, you will have chosen a location for the birth that is within close proximity of a hospital with 24-hour maternity care so that you can be transported there to receive professional help should an emergency situation arise.  The doctors may need to do an emergency c-section, or use medications to accelerate your labor if your baby's health is compromised. It is important to prioritize the health and wellbeing of your baby in situations such as these, because failure to receive professional medical care could forever compromise your future child's quality of life. Remember that having a healthy baby is the most important outcome of any birthing process; allow yourself to remember this if a change of plans becomes necessary and you are unable to safely proceed with a home...

It is important to clean the glass before removing any water. Use an aquarium sponge or clean soap-free cloth to remove algae and grime. Some fish owners leave algae, as it is preferable to green water and provides food for many fish. Still, it is best to remove some algae. By using the current tank water, you will cause less environmental stress on the fish. Make sure your temporary container is clean and has no soapy residue. If you are unsure of its cleanliness status, clean it with an aquarium-safe glass cleaner or a vinegar-based solution. . Be gentle and mindful. You may want to use two nets. Use one net to herd the fish into the other net. Put your fish in the temporary container with the original tank water. Never put them in tap water. Do not allow the fish to jump from the temporary tank. Put a cover on the tank. ). While you do not need to remove decorative items for every water change, remove them for cleanings. Put them on a towel, and rinse them with clean, room temperature water. You may use an algae pad or new toothbrush as well. Do not use detergent or soap to wash them. The fish will die from the toxicity of soap. If algae overwhelms your decorations, consider changing your feeding or maintenance routines. Place the bucket for catching the old water below the level of the fish tank. If possible, set the bucket on the floor or on a chair. Stability is important as is close proximity to the tank. It is best to buy a new bucket to use only for cleaning your fish tank. Residue from soaps or detergents can harm your fish. Remove fifty percent of the water at a time. An appropriate siphon is a small 3/8" hose that is four to five feet long. Slowly lower the complete siphon into the aquarium. Ensure that all the air is out of the tube. Plug one end of the tube with your finger and lift that end from the tank. Keep the other end in the water. Lower the removed end towards the bucket while keeping your finger in place. When you remove your finger, the water should flow into the bucket. Slowly...

It is important to consider whether or not you live somewhere that could potentially face a tsunami. It is likely that you are at some risk if:  Your home, school, or workplace is in a coastal region, near the sea. The elevation of your home, school or workplace is at sea level or fairly low and on flat or only slightly undulating land. If you don't know the elevation level of your home, school or workplace, find out. Some local authorities use elevation as a warning indicator. There are warning signs indicating that your area is prone to tsunamis. Your local authorities have issued information about the potential for tsunamis. Natural sea barriers such as levees of dunes have been removed for development. Do some library research or ask at the local government office. FEMA has a website enabling online flood risk searches. Most tsunamis happen in what's called the "Ring of Fire," an area in the Pacific Ocean known for its geologic activity. Chile, the western United States, Japan, and the Philippines are especially vulnerable. If a tsunami (or another natural disaster) hits, chances are you'll need a few survival items, and you'll need them fast. It can be helpful to have both a safety and survival pack already assembled:   Make a safety pack. Food, water, and a first aid kit are among the basics required. Keep the safety pack somewhere obvious, well known to everyone in the building and easy to grab in an emergency. It can also help to leave a raincoat or other coat for each person near the safety pack.  Make a personal survival pack for each person in the family, and a family survival pack with common items for everyone. Include a supply of necessary medications for each member of the family. Don't forget survival items for your pets. An evacuation plan must be prepared in advance to be of use. In developing one, consider your family, your workplace, your school, and your wider community. If necessary, begin to develop a community-wide evacuation plan if nothing is being done in your community. Take the...

It is important to get regular dental cleanings as you age. Not only will it keep your teeth nice and healthy, it will allow your dentist to identify any problems that are emerging before they get too serious. As you age, the nerves in your teeth become less sensitive. This means that you may not be able to feel it when problems begin to emerge. This is why it is so important to have regular exams as you age. If you do think that you have a problem with your teeth, you should get it looked at as soon as possible. Even if you are scared of the potential pain of a dental visit or you have a limited budget and you are concerned about the cost of dental procedures, it is still a good idea to get your issue checked out.  Paying for small dental problems to be fixed will cost you less in the long run than paying for larger dental problems. However, there may be budget options that you can employ, such as paying in installments, using insurance, or going to a dental school for treatment. Having dental pain can also impact your ability to eat enough food. If you have dental pain and it is impacting your life in this way, you should get it treated right away. Talk to your dentist about options of protective treatments that could give your teeth extra protection from wear and tear. Two common treatments are fluoride varnish and fissure sealants.  Fluoride varnish is a treatment in which a strong fluoride is applied to the teeth. This application makes the enamel on the teeth stronger and less likely to decay. It can be applied every six months. A fissure sealant is a plastic or resin coating that is applied to the crevices of the teeth. This coating protects the teeth from bacteria and food that might get stuck in the crevices. This coating can last up to 10 years.

It is important to keep the food refrigerated until you cook it. This means that it is better to barbecue in batches rather than leaving meat and other barbecue foods sitting out waiting in the open, uncooked. Bring each new batch for cooking direct from the fridge to the barbecue every time it is ready to be cooked. If you are marinating your meat be sure to let the meat marinade in the fridge. Don't re-use the marinade. Cover the cooked food to keep the insects landing on it. Ensure that all meats are cooked through. In particular, ensure that pork and chicken are properly cooked. It can be a little deceptive sometimes to see a charred outer casing of the meat, only to have uncooked flesh inside. Follow the cooking times suggested for each meat type. Once you have cooked you meat to the right temperature keep it hot until served— 140 °F (60 °C) or warmer.

It is important to know that you are worthy because many individuals with guilt (including shame about stealing) may not believe that they deserve help. This often prevents them from seeking assistance. You do deserve help and understanding, and you are not alone. It is important to first identify the specific reasons why you steal in order to begin to change this behavior.  Do you steal for an emotional high? Do you feel initial tension, then a thrill of excitement that builds up prior to the theft and relief after it's done? Is this then followed by feeling guilt, shame and remorse? These are some signs that stealing may be a problem for you. Do you steal to escape? When stealing, do you feel different, as if you're not yourself or you're not in touch with reality? This is a fairly common state of feeling for individuals who steal. After you've discovered what drives your stealing behaviors, try free writing about your need to steal. Don't censor your feelings – everything you think about or feel is important to note. Be sure to name the feelings, such as anger, fear, sadness, loneliness, being creeped out, exposed, vulnerable, etc. that accompany the need to steal. Thinking about the consequences of your behaviors can help to reduce impulsivity. If you have been nearly caught, or have been caught (or caught several times), write all of this down. Also write down your own subsequent feelings, such as shame and guilt, and the actions you use to try to cope with these feelings or remorse or disgust, such as drinking too much, cutting yourself, destroying the things you've stolen, or other destructive actions. If you have been caught, how strong were the accompanying feelings? Why do you feel that even being caught isn't enough to overcome the need to steal? Write it all down.

It is important to pinpoint what you would like to change about the appearance of your teeth first so that you articulate your goals to an orthodontist.  Some treatment options can only address certain dental issues, so having a clear picture of what you want your teeth to look like afterward is key. Dentists and orthodontists are different:  in addition to dentistry, orthodontists are also training in the complex development of teeth and facial form.  It is important to meet with an orthodontist to determine a treatment plan, not a dentist.  It is also important that they are board-certified because it ensures that they are licensed with the highest level of comprehensive treatment and training. In complex cases, an orthodontist may require the help of an oral surgeon or maxillofacial surgeon in order to establish a full treatment plan. You may have done some research on your own, but the only person who can tell you exactly what your options are when it comes to dental appliances is your orthodontist.  Sometimes braces are the only option for your dental needs.  If they’re not, discussing the other treatments with them and listening to their advice is essential.  Some helpful questions to ask include:  What is involved in the proposed treatment plan, and what are some consequences if I choose to not move forward with one of these options now? How do you determine the cost of treatment and what billing options are available?  Also, what insurance plans do you accept? What kind of post-treatment follow up is expected for this treatment option? Do you provide patient references or any before-and-after pictures of your work? It is recommended that you get two to three opinions before moving forward with a given treatment plan, especially if it’s recommended that you get teeth extracted or if your case is a complicated one.  Many orthodontists push braces even when there are other available options, but experts agree that there is usually no “one right way.” Meeting with a few orthodontists will help you find...

It is important to understand the difference between compulsive buying and impulsive buying. The distinction between the two depends on the person’s motivation, or intent for making the purchase.  Someone who is a compulsive buyer is more likely to have financial issues than an impulsive buyer. They might also have relationship distress with family and friends, and emotional confusion. A compulsive buyer is at higher risk of addictive behaviors. These addictive behaviors include the motive to shop to soothe uncomfortable internal emotional feelings, stress, and anxiety. An impulsive buyer is usually someone who buys things on a whim typically as a reaction to an external trigger. For example, you may see a desired item in a store window, and without thinking about your budget, you purchase it. If you find something you want to buy in the moment, ask yourself some questions before you make the purchase. Taking some time before you run to the register can help you decide on whether you need that item or not. Ask yourself, “Is this a want or a need? Can I afford it without any debt? Can it wait a month? Will it go on sale? Can I live without it? How will it affect my life?” It’s easy to swipe a credit card, but parting with cash is a bit more difficult. People who pay in cash tend to spend less than those who use a credit card. Consider putting your credit cards away and moving to a cash-only system.  Have cash budgets for each area you need like transportation, entertainment, and food. Put each week’s allotment in an envelope. If you’re buying things online, use a debit card instead of a credit card. Create a mandatory waiting period before you make a purchase. Many stores will put items on hold so that you can go home and come back another day if you still want it. You may really like an item now, but not feel so strongly about it a different day. Creating a waiting period can help you decide whether you really need it or not. Some people choose to wait a week before going back and purchasing an item. If you...

It is important you consider these two things simultaneously as this will determine everything from the content included in the book to its layout design and presentation.  Write for an audience that you already know. If you have worked as a college professor of mathematics, you might not know the best way to reach an audience of middle schoolers. If you are writing for an audience that is unfamiliar to you, consider hiring a collaborator who is familiar with this demographic. As you decide on a subject, consider which areas are underserved in modern education. Does your book fill a void in the market? Textbook publishing is big business -- far more so than traditional book or magazine publishers. You will need to research what comparable books exist on the market and how are they priced. Define your Unique Selling Point. The USP defines what makes your textbook special. What does it offer that no other textbook offers? You will need to explain to publishers and other teachers (who might become your customers) why they should pick your book over others. You should find colleagues who have also published textbooks and get feedback from them. Did they use a traditional publisher or did they self-publish? How long did it take them to complete their textbook? What did they wish they had known at the beginning of the writing process? Most textbooks now come in ebook form; some are only available in this format while others also have a corresponding hard copy. You should consider how you will adapt your textbook for a digital audience. Will you include a corresponding web site for the textbook where students can find practice test questions? Could you design fun games to help educate your audience (especially younger students)? Consider adding in these additional elements for the textbook. Writing a textbook can take a very long time -- sometimes, it will be years between the time you start to draft the book and the time it comes out into print. Are you prepared to invest this amount of time? Are you passionate...

It is more likely that your system of equations will not have a pair of matching or opposite coefficients. When you line up the two equations and compare coefficients, unless two coefficients (the A and B of the standard format) match exactly, you need to take a couple extra steps.  For example, consider these two initial equations:  3x+2y=6{\displaystyle 3x+2y=6} 8x−4y=2{\displaystyle 8x-4y=2}   When you examine them, there are no matching coefficients for similar terms. That is, the 3x does not match the 8x, and the 2y does not match the -4y. There is also no pair of opposites. Examine the two equations and decide what number you could use to multiply one of the equations, to create a pair of matching or opposite coefficients. For example, given the system 3x+2y=6{\displaystyle 3x+2y=6} and 8x−4y=2{\displaystyle 8x-4y=2}, you should be able to see that the first equation contains a term 2y{\displaystyle 2y} and the second equation contains a term -4y{\displaystyle 4y}. If you double the first term, you will have a pair of opposite coefficients.  Multiply each term of the equation to create a new equation for solving. In this example, multiply each term of the first equation by 2{\displaystyle 2}. This will turn the original equation 3x+2y=6{\displaystyle 3x+2y=6} into 6x+4y=12{\displaystyle 6x+4y=12}. Notice that you now have a pair of opposite coefficients in the y{\displaystyle y} terms of 4y{\displaystyle 4y} and -4y{\displaystyle 4y}. In some cases, you may need to do a double multiplication, or use a fraction. For example, in the system 2x−3y=2{\displaystyle 2x-3y=2} and 5x+2y=1{\displaystyle 5x+2y=1}, there are no coefficients that are simple integer multiples of each other. You could multiply the first equation by 5/2{\displaystyle 5/2} to create 5x−152y=5{\displaystyle 5x-{\frac {15}{2}}y=5}, and now the x{\displaystyle x} coefficients are ready to be canceled. Alternatively, if you prefer not to work with fractions, you could multiply the first equation by 5 and the second equation by 2. This would...

It is natural and normal to feel grief before you feel acceptance. Don't shy away from admitting, at least to yourself, that you are going through a difficult time. Understand yourself as best you can and don't reject your emotions out of hand. Instead, just focus on keeping them under control. Nothing helps soothe the pain of seeing the girl you can't be with better than simply not being around her as much. This doesn't necessarily have to mean ceasing all contact, but it will mean seeing her less, which may sound awful but is actually the best way to start getting on with the rest of your life. If you're currently friends, stop making the first move. Only spend time with her when she calls you; don't call her yourself and ask to spend time together. You'll still see each other occasionally, but in most cases you'll see a sharp decline in the amount of time you spend together – and an increase in your personal free time. Nothing says “just friends” as clearly as a refusal to go out of your way for one person in particular. Doing favors for someone because you are attracted to them will only lead to your feeling used and misunderstood further down the line. Just as importantly, doing favors for a girl will only have one of two possible effects on her: One, she will assume you are naturally that giving, and begin taking your favors for granted, or two, she will assume you are trying to ingratiate yourself to her in exchange for the possibility of a date, which will make her uncomfortable around you.  If you buy her gifts without asking (or just because she said she wanted something), cover her tab in cafes and restaurants, offer your services as a driver, or otherwise treat her differently than you would treat any of your other friends, that is a favor and it is important that you stop. Put potential favors through a simple test.  When you find yourself about to do something for the girl you are trying to get over, ask yourself if you would be so willing to do the same thing for a good male friend. If not, you...

It is not always possible for teachers to know the exact time of a fire drill ahead of time, but try working with school administrators to prepare yourself in advance as much as possible. If you know just when the alarm is going to sound, you can take steps to better prepare a student. Sometimes a fear of the unknown can amplify a student's fear of fire or the school's fire alarm. Children need to know what to expect during a fire drill, and teachers should be very clear about rules and procedures for drills.  Anxiety can cause a child to lash out or misbehave in unexpected ways, which may require disciplinary action from the school.  Help your students to understand the importance of following official procedure despite their fears. Why not take a moment to address a fear of fire alarms in front of the whole class? There may be several students who share the same anxiety. Seek permission from the administration to practice a fire drill for your class outside the regular drills scheduled by the school. Because there will be no sudden alarm sounding, the child can practice your school’s safety routine in a much less fearful situation.  Try giving the child a positive responsibility during the drill, such as letting them lead the students from the front of the line or turn off the classroom lights from the back of the line. Separating the fire drill from the sound of the alarm can also help you determine just what triggers the student’s fear. In some cases, the child may suffer enough anxiety to make participating in a school fire drill impossible right away. As in exposure therapy, gradually bring the child closer to the classroom or the school building as they become familiar with the drill routine and the sound of the alarm.  Maybe a teachers’ aide can escort the student out of the room before the alarm sounds. Keep in mind, if the child avoids all fire drills because of the alarm, they will not learn the important ways to act during a real fire emergency. Do not let fear get in the way of proper fire safety...

It is often considered a taboo to speak openly regarding specific figures of your salary, even among friends. If you are asked about your salary but don't wish to provide a specific dollar amount, simply make a generic response such as "modest" or even "considerable." It is also acceptable to calmly and confidently reply that you do not wish to discuss salary unless it is necessary.  This is an especially good tactic if revealing your salary would make you uncomfortable or if you believe it would cause tension between you and the person asking. You might say something like, "I make about an average salary for someone with my job and experience." Discussing your income with a friend or family member who makes relatively close to the same amount as you is probably a harmless encounter; however, if you disclose your earnings to someone who makes significantly more or less than you, this could become a source of tension in your relationship in the future.  For example, feelings of resentment could arise if a friend discovers you make significantly more money than them. Or there could be disagreements over what activities you do together because one of you can afford it and the other can’t. Additionally, people might judge your financial decisions more harshly when they know the specifics of your income. For example, your mother might chide you for buying a new car if she thinks your salary isn’t enough to support the decision. Circumstances are always different from one person to the next. Your friend might be in a similar position and make more money than you, but that friend might also have additional skills or education that you lack. Keep in mind that information gained from awkward conversation is rarely reliable. Consider simply talking generally about salary with those close to you. You can ask for advice on how to negotiate for more money (strategies that have worked for them and those that didn’t work so well) without needing to disclose specific numbers.

It is perfectly natural to feel all sorts of emotions after a breakup—from utter sadness to blinding anger. If you suddenly feel deeply, let it out—you will feel better after. However, it is important to remember not to let these emotions dictate your life. If you feel sad, dive into that emotion, let it out, and then move on. Trying to numb yourself to the pain or holding your emotions in can cause your heartbreak to remain with you for much longer—and can cause unnecessary levels of stress. This also goes for crying. If you are overcome with the urge to cry, do not try to bottle it up. Of course, there are certain times when crying might make a situation pretty uncomfortable (like when you’re at work, in class, in line at the grocery store, etc.) During those situations, its always good to to keep some tricks up your sleeve to  keep yourself from crying outright. When you experience a breakup, you may feel like everyone is out to hurt you or that the world is a dark, unfriendly place. Its important to remember that its not--there are many people who love you and many beautiful things to experience in the world. To rid yourself of negative thoughts, focus on things you love and surround yourself with people and things that make you happy. Meditation can be an excellent way to dispel negative thoughts. If you begin to feel yourself falling into a negative headspace, divert yourself by doing something distracting and calming. Go for a walk a get some fresh air, call up your best friend to find out how her day is going, or plan out a project you want to take on. It can really help to put your feelings into words. Talk to a family member, friend, or therapist about what you are going through. Chances are, an outside observer will be able to help you sort out your feelings and come up with a game plan for how to face this broken heart head on. When someone you trust, like your ex, suddenly hurts you it can make you begin to question your worth. Don’t let yourself go down this path--you are worth a whole lot. ...

It is possible that you are too sick for work and should stay home. By staying home you can prevent yourself from getting worse and help prevent the spread of illness. You might also help speed along your recovery so that you are more productive when you do return to work. Think carefully about whether you are better off working or focusing on your recovery.  If you have a high fever (over 101 degrees Fahrenheit) or spots on your throat, you might have to consult your physician. You should also talk to your doctor if you have trouble staying hydrated or if your symptoms do not get better after a few days.  Many workers cannot afford to take time off because of illness. If this is the case, then you will have to find ways to take care of yourself even while working. It might be possible for you to get your work done from home instead of from the office. This option is great for employees (who can focus a bit more on recovery) and for employers (who do not have to worry about the spread of illness). Talk to your workplace to see if this is an option. In order for telecommuting to work, you will likely require a secure laptop and a high-speed internet connection as well as a reliable phone. Being expected to work while ill can be a source of stress. However, stress weakens the immune system and might prolong your recovery time. Take a few deep breaths and tell yourself that you will be all right. Even though you are ill, you will be able to be productive as well as recover from your illness. It might not be ideal, but you will get through this illness. Sometimes we have a day or two of warning before we get sick. Perhaps you might feel run-down, achy, or sleepy. When you feel a cold or other illness coming on, organize your work tasks so that you do not lose productivity during your illness. Get ahead on as many tasks as you can, and consider taking some work home with you so that you don't have to come into the office. Illness makes it hard to focus and can also reduce your stamina. In order to get work done,...

It is quite normal to have fewer erections as a man ages.  It is not normal, however, to be unable to have or sustain an erection, and it is not normal to lose interest in sex. Lowered testosterone levels can cause sex-related symptoms, such as:  Decreased sex drive (libido) and other sexually related problems: Erectile dysfunction (ED) A decrease in the number and quality of erections. Decreased sperm counts and possible infertility It is quite normal for a man’s testosterone level to decrease gradually with age, but you should not see many abnormal changes in your body. Lower testosterone in men can cause some bodily changes. This includes smaller testicles and swollen or tender breasts.  In adolescents or young adults who have completed puberty yet, having low testosterone may cause them to appear younger than their chronological age. These adolescents/young adults may also be void of body or facial hair. Men with lower levels may also experience hot flashes. Men may also experience a decrease in muscle mass leading to decreased strength and endurance, along with osteopenia (softening of the bones) and osteoporosis (decreased bone density). Men may also experience changes in blood lipids, such as cholesterol levels. Men who experience low testosterone levels may experience some changes to their behavior. They may feel fatigue, difficulty sleeping, or a change in sleep patterns. Mood changes can also occur, like depression, irritability, and anxiety. Men may also suffer from problems with memory, concentration, or a sudden lack of self-confidence. Women can have low testosterone as well. Symptoms in women most commonly occur around menopause and can complicate any treatment of menopausal symptoms. Symptoms of low testosterone in women include:  Decreased sexual desire and function Muscle weakness Decreased vaginal lubrication Infertility Testosterone levels in both men and women normally decrease with age. In men, testosterone levels decrease about 1% each year after the age of 30. Women over 40 may have...

It is usually better to start of a little easy, rather than taking on too much too soon. This is especially true if you have been relatively inactive for a while, or are older. Taking on too much too soon can hurt your body, causing injury and tanking your workout program. Only do what you can so your body can keep up. If you have not worked out in a while, start out small. Spend a week gauging your fitness level. When you have found what's easy and what's hard, start working your way up from there. Only increase by 10% each time to avoid wreaking havoc on yourself. Maybe you've been running that same 5k three times a week and that last ten pounds you want to lose just is not coming off. You and your body might be becoming bored with your routine. Mix it up with some cross training, find a class you'd enjoy, or set a new specific exercise goal.  The best way to lose weight is with cardio and weights. If you have only been doing one or the other, this may be your problem. If you hate the exercise, it is not the workout for you. Running is great exercise, but if you hate running, do not run. If you hate doing what you're doing, you will not stick with it. Invest your time and energy into an activity you feel good while doing and it'll become a lifelong hobby. Change your routine routinely! Changing your routine every few months keeps boredom at bay and helps prevent damage from repetitive use. It also allows a program to follow the seasons. Running in the fall may be a pleasure, but maybe not so much in the depths of winter. Telling both yourself and other people that you don't eat certain things rather than you can't eat certain things has been shown to improve your ability to stick to your resolutions . Likewise, try to think of exercise as a part of your daily routine, rather than something you are obligated to do. If you're only going for weight loss, it's gonna be a drought of results for a while. Instead, consider looking at different numbers that you can see build up on the daily. After just one week of...

It is very important that you communicate with your parents in an effective way. Though your parents will be overwhelmed by your news no matter what, you can ease the blow by sounding as articulate and mature as possible when you tell them. Here are some things to think about:  Prepare your opening. Don't scare your parents by saying, "I have some really bad news." Instead, say, "I have something very difficult to tell you." Prepare how you will explain the pregnancy. Do they know you're having sex, or even that you have a boyfriend? Prepare how you will share your feelings. Though you will feel upset and may find it difficult to communicate, you should hold off on the tears until the end of the conversation, when they will surely come. You should tell them that you're shocked, and that you are so sorry to have disappointed them (if that's the case), that you're going through the hardest time of your life and that you'd really like their support. Prepare to answer any questions. Your parents will have a lot of questions for you, so it's best to know what to say so you're not caught off guard. Once you've figured out how to best communicate how you feel and what you'll say, you need to start thinking about how your parents will respond. This will depend on many factors, including how they have reacted to difficult news in the past, if your sexual activity will be a complete shock to them, and what their values are. Here are some things to consider:  Do they know you're sexually active? If you've been having sex for months, or even years, and they don't have the slightest clue, they will be more surprised than if they suspect, or even if they know, that you are having sex. What are their values? Are they liberal about premarital sex, or do they think you absolutely should not have sex until you are married, or close to being married? How have they reacted to bad news in the past? Though it's unlikely that you've delivered such dramatic news to them previously, you should consider how they've reacted to...

It is very simple, but very effective. Be nice to him and to other people too. He will see what a pleasant person you are. If you are harsh and mean to others, but nice to him, that won't really get you far either. Going back and forth between very nice and cold/arrogant will make you seem fake. Playing mind games gives you an air of being moody and high maintenance. If he's thinking about dating you, he'll see that it would be easy because you get along with everyone. No guy wants to date a girl who has a reputation of fighting with everyone or just being mean to people for no reason. For some, flirting comes naturally. If so, flaunt it. If not, then just show him that you're interested in him by making eye contact, smiling, and making a little bit of conversation. You can turn your body towards him instead of away to send the message that you like him and even touch him lightly if your conversation is going well. You can also tease him a bit, if you're starting to get to know him and know he'll respond well. Another way to flirt is to be a bit playful. You don't have to act like you take yourself so seriously all the time. Genuine, simple compliments are great. If you find something simple that you can compliment about him, go for it. Pick a pretty harmless aspect of his appearance or a quality about him that deserves to be complimented. You can say something like, "I like your new haircut" or "It's really cool how you can be so good at baseball and have time to do well in school." That's about as personal as it should get; there's no need to make him uncomfortable by saying something like, "You look so hot in that shirt." Save the juicy compliments for when you're dating each other. Don't compliment him more than once per every conversation or two. If you keep piling on the compliments, he may feel overwhelmed or like you're fawning all over him. If he's teasing you, then give him a gentle shove or a playful tap on the knee. Just make sure the action is reciprocated. If you're the one who is always...

It is well documented that meat production is environmentally troubling in several ways. If more people ate less or no meat, it would reduce the amount of:    Greenhouse gas emissions. A UN report determined that meat production accounts for 18% of global greenhouse gas emissions, primarily methane released from livestock agriculture. Methane is a particularly problematic greenhouse gas because its impact on climate change is more than 20 times that of carbon dioxide.   Deforestation. The expansion of pastures for livestock, and particularly cattle-ranching, accounts for 80% of the overall deforestation of the Amazon Rainforest.  This has serious ecological consequences like loss of biodiversity, soil degradation and increased carbon dioxide emissions.   Pollutants. Giant livestock farms housing high volumes of pigs, cows, or chickens can generate a massive amount of waste equivalent to that of a small city.  These farms have been linked to high levels of nitrates in drinking water which can increase the risk of methemoglobinemia or "blue-baby syndrome." While one person's decision to stop eating meat will not have a direct impact on the meat industry, taken as a whole, the current meat production system is deeply unsustainable.  Not eating meat can be a positive choice not to support this system.   Intensive animal farming uses up resources faster than they can be replaced. For example, meat production has a considerably lower energy return ratio (food energy per fossil energy expended) than food plant crops.  This mode of agriculture has consequences for both the treatment of animals and the health of humans.  On meat farms, the animals are often closely packed together, without access to fresh air and are bred to grow unnaturally fast and large for the purposes of maximizing meat.  In these conditions diseases spread quickly.  Antibiotics are used widely, which can in turn enter the food chain and promote antibiotic resistance in humans. Raising an animal for slaughter requires considerably more grain,...

It is, predictably enough, skype.com. If you are using a tablet or mobile device such as an iPad or Kindle, it may be easiest to instead go to the device's "store," such as the App Store or the Amazon Shop. Search "Skype." Your computer may ask you if you would like to download the installer file. Click "Yes."  The file downloaded to a standard Windows computer will be named SkypeSetup.exe, and it should be roughly 1.5 megabytes in size. For a Mac, the downloaded file will start with "Skype" and end with ".dmg." There will probably be some numbers in between that indicate the updated version of Skype that you have downloaded, but the digits change frequently. For most mobile devices, just click the "Get" or "Download" link (depending on your device) and the program should begin to install itself (meaning you can skip the next several steps). If using a Mac, double click on the downloaded file. A window will appear with icons representing the Skype program and your Applications folder. Move the Skype icon to the Applications folder and the installation process is complete. If using a Windows PC, you may be asked if you would like to let the program make changes to your computer. Click "Yes." If using a Mac or mobile device, this is probably an unnecessary step. If you are using a Windows PC, there are a few more steps to complete.   Skype will ask you what language you would like to use, and you must select one (from a rather substantial list of options). There will be a box with the words "Run Skype when the computer starts" (this is located under the language preference menu). The box is automatically checked, meaning that Skype will open every time you start up. You may want to un-check the box now, so you can determine when Skype is running. There is also a "More Options" selection that is highlighted in blue. If you click on it you can determine the location on your computer to which Skype will be installed, and you can also determine whether you want a desktop icon for Skype. Make your decisions and...

It may be difficult to find packaged lentil seeds at your local garden center. You may need to go to a specialty garden retailer or purchase from an organic seed business online. However, for planting purposes, any whole, dry lentils that you find in the grocery store will work just fine. Split lentils will not work, so be sure to get whole lentils. Place the seeds into a colander and rinse them with a bit of water. Pick out and throw away any that are broken, cracked, or discolored. Lentils thrive with the cool, crisp weather of March. Then, they reach maturity in the hot temperatures of summer. To keep your seeds alive, the ground temperature will need to be at least 40 degrees Fahrenheit (4 degrees Celsius) when you plant. If you have a frost after planting, don’t worry as most seedlings will survive this, even if they have to restart from the roots. If you want more flexible planting options, lentils can also be planted indoors as long as the room temperature is kept around 68 degrees Fahrenheit (20 degrees Celsius). In colder seasons, some people use indoor garden lighting to maintain a consistent temperature. Lentils grow well in both open gardens and containers. The key is to provide the plant with plenty of full sunlight. It helps to plant them alongside low lying plants so that the lentils are not overshadowed. Make sure that the soil stays moist without accumulating standing water on the top, as that can rot out the roots.  If you choose to plant your lentils in a container, choose one that is at least 8 inches (20 cm) deep to allow for full root maturity.  If you are concerned about the acidity or alkalinity of your soil, get a quick pH test from the garden store. Lentils grow well in the pH range of 6.0 to 6.5.

It may be hard to determine if you need to gain weight, as well as how much. Your doctor can help you understand the best target weight for your body so you can set a goal for gaining weight. Then, they’ll help you identify a healthy dietary and exercise plan to meet your needs. Don’t start a new diet or exercise plan without discussing it with your doctor. They can help you understand what’s safe for you to try. Exercise is important for your health, so you shouldn’t stop exercising to gain weight. Your doctor will help you figure out how to get at least 150 minutes of moderate exercise a week without halting your weight gain. Dealing with cancer is difficult, especially since you’re likely low on energy. While chemotherapy can help you fight cancer, it may also make you struggle to eat or keep food down. You may be able to eat more if you stick to soft foods, like soup or mashed potatoes. Puree solid foods like cooked veggies so they’re easier to keep down. Try adding milk and cheese to your meals to increase the nutrients while keeping the texture soft. Your doctor may be able to give you additional tips. Everyone is different, so what works for someone else may not work for you. Try not to give up because there’s likely something that will work for you.

It may be surprising but vaccinations can prevent some eye infections. Cat flu and chlamydia are two common causes of eye infections that vaccination can prevent. Eye infections are commonly caused either by bacteria or viruses. Viral infections are self-limiting and the cat's own immune system will fight the infection. Bacterial infections are treated with topical eye ointments or drops that contain antibiotic.  Viruses which affect the eye include herpesvirus and calicivirus. Some veterinarians will supply topical antibiotics even if a viral infection is suspected, this is because these infections could be mixed with complicating bacteria that cause secondary infections.  The bacteria that may colonize the eye and cause infection include Staphylococci, E.coli, Proteus, and Pseudomonas. It is very important to always wash your hands thoroughly after handling a cat with sticky eyes, as these infections can spread. Depending on the formulation antibiotic treatments are applied anywhere from twice a day to hourly. Oral antibiotics are not usually given for eye infections unless it is not possible to use an ointment because of the cat's temperament. Treatment is usually given for a minimum of 5 days, and should not be discontinued before this because of the risk of inducing antibiotic resistance.

It may help to have a few labels in mind that inspire you. If you want to sell boho glam women's clothing, check out what designers like Rachel Zoe do. Where do they sell their labels? How do they promote themselves online? How do they sell the idea of their label to the public?  Do research on hard numbers, too. How much money is in men's jeans or bridal or whatever you want to do? What type of sales volume will you need to make a profit? How many other designers and labels are out there in your niche, and who are your biggest competitors?  The website How to Start a Clothing Company is recommended by a variety of fashion designers and experts as a good source of information on everything ranging from startup costs to design copyright to marketing. Having a strong sense of who your ideal target customer is will help your label find success. Businesses that try to market “something for everyone” may ultimately end up without a strong, focused identity and lose customers to confusion over what their brand represents. Similarly, labels that design for “glamorous women” or “young business professionals” without a sense of who that really means may end up out of business.  Think about the fashion labels that are incredibly successful and how well they define their customer base: for example, Kate Spade New York markets to young professional women who rock a fun vintage vibe, while Versace targets glamorous, over-the-top trendsetters. Both of these labels were among the most popular in 2013, even though they're at opposite ends of the fashion spectrum.  Consider registering your label name and logo with the  patent and  trademark office. Once this is done, others can't rip off your ideas (and if they do, you have legal recourse). ” Almost every major fashion house has a “brand story,” or a short spiel that describes exactly what their design philosophy is, who their target customer is, and why their label is exceptional at what they offer.  Brand stories should show, rather than tell. They should aim to create an...
