If you’re planning a party for your work or simply inviting more people than you can fit in your home, you may want to consider using a venue. Contact local restaurants and event spaces and ask about their availability and pricing. You should also ask whether you’ll be able to decorate the space beforehand and bring your own food, if applicable. If you’re throwing a work Christmas party, you can also throw it right in your office. The right decorations can transform the space from work to holiday spirit! An outside venue definitely isn’t necessary for a great Christmas party. In fact, most holiday parties are held at home or, for work parties, at the office, which is good news if you’re looking to save money. You’ll avoid rental costs and have the convenience and freedom to decorate however and whenever you want. You’ll also be able to cook for yourself if you host at home or at the office, giving you more freedom and flexibility. Christmas parties come with their own theme, of course, you can also step it up a notch by creating a more specific feel with decorations or activities. Consider themes like:   Holiday Elegance, with shimmery metallic and green decorations and tasteful accessories like candles.  Santa Claus Is Coming to Town, with a focus on red and white colors and a homey, log cabin feel. Include festive activities like a cookie swap and lots of homemade decorations.  White Christmas, with white, silver, and gold decorations and lots of snowflakes. You could even encourage guests to wear all white. It’s fine to invite friends via word of mouth or text, but paper or even online invitations make it feel like more of an event. Whatever you choose, make sure to get your invites out at least 2 weeks beforehand to give friends time to plan. If you’re on a budget, look for e-vites that are free to customize and send. The holidays are a busy time for everyone, and if you plan your party too close to Christmas, there’s a good chance your guests will be travelling or have other commitments. Setting it...

If you’re planning on wearing makeup to the party, bring some extra makeup in a small bag for touch-ups. Touch-ups can include fixing smeared mascara, applying powder, reapplying lipstick. Additionally, if you’re attending a pool party, consider bringing enough makeup to reapply everything after swimming. Common “touch up bags” include:  Makeup removal pads Powder and a powder brush Mascara Blotting papers (to remove excess skin oil) If you eat these foods, you risk ruining your shirt or dress for the rest of the night. Additionally, some foods may leave a faint stain on your teeth and lips. Combat these stains by brushing your teeth or rinsing your mouth out with water. Stain-prone foods include:  Dark berries Coffee Dark wine Pasta sauce Most people find confidence attractive. The more relaxed you are, the more confident and you will look. If you’re having trouble relaxing at a party, try focusing on different things in your environment. This will draw your attention away from yourself and help you relax. For example:  Think about the color of the furniture. Examine the pictures on the walls. Force yourself to focus on a conversation.

If you’re planning to leave your room, you need to keep track of where the creaky floorboards are. You can also look up methods to sneak around silently.   You can either memorize them or sketch a rough outline of the stairs or hallway on a piece of paper. Then mark the noisy spots on it as you find them throughout the day. You’ll probably get hungry or thirsty while staying up late, so during the day, sneak some bottles of water and snacks out of the kitchen and into your room. Hide them under the bed if there’s any chance your parents will go into your closet before the end of the day.  Choose energy drinks or caffeinated beverages if you’re worried about getting tired. Select quiet snacks like bread or fresh fruit instead of chips or cereal, which will be in loud, crinkly bags. If you’re staying up late to do homework, gather all your books, papers, and pencils together in your room so you don’t have to find them later. If you’re staying up for fun, hide some entertainment under your pillow: a book, your phone, or a handheld gaming device. Make sure any electronic devices are fully charged so that they last through the night. You’ll probably have to turn your bedroom light off at some point to pretend you’ve gone to sleep. If you plan to read a book or do any writing, track down a book light or flashlight and store this near your bed so you can read under the covers. If you have time in the late afternoon, take a quick nap. Grabbing an hour or so of sleep now will help you make it through the night later.

If you’re planning to wear your jacket on hunting trips, to protect yourself from cold weather, or for similar purposes, purchase a sturdy, thick jacket from an outdoor shop. These jackets may not be as fashionable as other options, but they are far more functional. Loose jackets are not as sturdy as hunting jackets, and they do not offer as much protection from cold weather. However, they are often more versatile and stylish, making them a perfect choice for fashion-conscious shoppers. Look for loose jackets at department stores and clothing boutiques. Instead of a fitted camo jacket, look for a jacket that is either too large or too long. When worn casually, these oversized items can accent any fitted clothing underneath. Oversized jackets pair particularly well with things not typically associated with camo, like dresses, short shorts, and dress slacks. If you want to wear camo for its ties to the army, look no further than a military surplus store. Surplus jackets are not only durable, but they often come with patches or symbols indicating which country they were designed for.

If you’re really stuck on a problem or concept, give yourself a little bit of a break. Sometimes, when you get so focused, it can be hard to see the right answer. Take a break and go for a walk or do some chores and come back. The answer might be clearer to you then! The best study breaks are 15 to 20 minutes long. It gives your brain enough time to disengage a bit, but won't complete disrupt your studying. Statistics is a very cumulative subject, meaning that each new concept or formula builds on the previous ones you’ve learned. So reviewing your notes once a week is a great way to prepare you for learning new concepts. Reread your notes and rework practice problems. If you’re rushing to get your homework done, you won’t really be absorbing the material. Do your homework the day or 2 before it’s due. That way, if you have any trouble, you have time to figure out the problems before the assignment is due. Your instructor will probably cover the most difficult, and the most important, concepts in class. Make sure you’re paying attention in class so you don’t miss anything important. If you find your attention starts to wander, refocus as soon as possible. To focus during class, remove any distractions: don’t bring your computer unless you need it, turn off your phone, and try to get a good night’s sleep the night before. Your instructor will go over a lot of practice problems in class. As you follow along, annotate your notes. Instead of just writing down the problem as your instructor does it, note how they get from one step to another. Use a highlighter to emphasize the concepts, rules, or techniques that your instructor emphasizes. As long as you’re really trying to understand the material, it’s perfectly okay to ask for help. Don’t worry about a question sounding dumb – everyone had to start somewhere with statistics, so even your teacher was where you are once. Keep 1 notebook, or section of your notebook, just for notes from your statistics class. When you’re taking notes in class, make sure you always...

If you’re smelling mold, then you likely have a high humidity level in your house. Treating the smell won’t be enough to keep your carpet smelling good because the mold spores will continue to thrive. Instead, change your habits to minimize humidity. Run a fan during showers, open a window to let shower or cooking steam out, and use a dehumidifier. If your carpet is wet, a wet-dry vacuum can help limit mold growth by removing the wetness that facilitates it. For mold smells, dilute your vinegar with water. Make sure that the water is warm rather than hot. Don’t warm your water on the stove. Coat the entire carpet in the room. The carpet should be damp enough to react to baking soda. While your carpet is still damp, sprinkle on your baking soda. The baking soda should react to the diluted vinegar. Depending on the size of your room and the quality of your sprayer, you may find it more convenient to work in small sections of your room. This may take several hours or overnight, depending on how much you applied and if you use fans to help the carpet dry. Dump the baking soda in your outside trash can. To prevent a return of the moldy-mildew smell, hasten the drying time. Depending on the weather, open a window as well to prevent the room from being stuffy. If you have water damage or mold, you may need the help of a professional. Mold is a serious issue that can quickly get expensive, so the earlier you get professional help the better it will be for your home.

If you’re still stranded when the storm clears, you’ll need to make a decision about when and how you will leave. Much of this will depend upon your location, how long you’ve been trapped and how well you’re doing physically. If you have a wind-up or transistor radio or enough gas left to listen to the radio, try to determine the road conditions and if certain roads are blocked. Talk to others if you’ve been stranded on a highway, for instance. If you still have charge on your cellphone, call a friend or relative to seek assistance and to ask what’s being done to clear the roads and/or find you. If you’re in a city or on a highway where others are stranded, you have a high chance of being rescued once the weather settles and emergency personnel are able to maneuver more easily. Nonetheless, if there are a lot of people also stranded, it could take a long time, time you may not have. If you decide to walk in search of safety, go with others if possible. Leave a note in your vehicle stating where you are going and stick to the plan, so rescuers or loved ones will be able to find you if they locate your vehicle first. Wear multiple layers and bring as many supplies as you can without becoming overloaded.  If you have enough gas left and think you can avoid becoming stuck again, try to dislodge your vehicle. If you choose to stay with your vehicle, make sure it’s obvious to rescuers that you are still with your vehicle. Very cold weather puts added strain on a person’s heart, and activities like shoveling snow, pushing a car and trudging through snow-covered terrain for long distances can cause heart attacks or make other health conditions considerably worse. If you’re in a remote area, are in relatively good health and believe you have enough gas to reach a gas station, a hotel or the like, consider digging your vehicle out of the snow. If you don’t have enough gas, you will need to make a choice – attempt to walk to safety or do everything you can to make yourself visible to rescuers.  If you stay, stamp out...

If you’re texting or using social media sites, you cannot see their body language or hear their tone unless you are having a video call. But by reading responses and seeing how long it takes for the person to respond, you can gauge if the person doesn’t want to talk to you.  Look for a “read” indication on sites like Facebook, Instagram, or Whatsapp. If there is a long lapse between your text and the response, or if the person doesn’t respond at all, she likely doesn’t want to talk to you. You can never be completely sure what is going on, though. It might be that she is busy or forgot to answer your message. Notice if the person goes offline when you send them a message. It could be that she doesn't want to talk to you, but once again you can't really know what is going on. She might be busy. Check the person’s responses. If they are one word such as “yeah,” “sure,” or something along those lines, chances are they’re no longer interested in the conversation or don’t want to talk to you. The tone of voice someone uses when speaking to you can tell you a lot about how they are feeling. Noticing the tenor of the conversation can help you figure out if the person isn’t engaged and cue you to exit elegantly. Ask yourself the following questions about the tone:  Does she sound irritated when I say something? Does he seem tired, slow, or bored when he responds? Does she sound pleasant or excited about our interaction? Does it seem like she’s questioning everything I say? If you suspect a person doesn’t want to talk to you, figure out who is leading the conversation. This can also indicate if your conversation partner has checked out and you need to stop talking.  Notice if you hear your own voice considerably more than that of your chatting partner, which can be a sign she is no longer interested in the conversation. Hold back a bit to see if the person begins talking more. This can indicate that she wants to talk but you’re overwhelming her. Check to see if you are integrated into the conversation if there are...

If you’re wearing a hooded sweatshirt, lean forward a bit and pull on your hood. Your eyes will be shielded from both the sides and the front, making it a great, natural-looking way to get a bit of sleep. Look up your dress code rules or review the guidelines for that class to make sure you can wear your hood in class. If your teacher asks you to take your hood off, they’ll realize you’re asleep. Keeping your hands on your forehead will block your eyes so your teacher won’t see them. Your hands will also help you stay balanced so you don’t slip when you fall asleep. To throw your teacher off even more, open a textbook in front of you so that it looks like you’re reading. Rest your elbow on the desk and place your hand under your chin, on your forehead, or against your cheek. Hold a pencil in your other hand and put it on your notebook. Tilt your head down to take a quick nap. This trick makes it look like you’re about to take notes or are reading over what you’ve just written. Arrange your hair in front of your face before you walk into class so the teacher thinks it’s a new style. When you doze off, the teacher won’t be able to tell that your eyes are closed. This is a perfect trick if you’re growing out bangs. If you want to make sure the teacher can’t see your face, prop your textbook upright on your desk and sit so your face is hidden behind it. Try to maintain an upright posture so it looks like you’re reading. This strategy can look obvious, so only use it when the class has a lot going on and is a little louder, such as during group work or a lab activity. Your teacher will be distracted and won’t pay as much attention to your sleeping. Slide down in your chair, place your head down on your desk, or hold your head in your hands. The person in front of you will block the teacher’s view of your chair so you can safely take a snooze.  This is best when the person in front of you is noticeably taller and broader than you. Make sure that the class won’t be getting up and moving any time soon, such as for...

If you’re worried about getting in trouble for having a nose ring or your parents won’t let you get one, how about trying a fake one?  A piercing is a serious decision. A fake nose piecing can allow you to test out the look with no regrets.  Nose piercings are painful. Why go through the pain when you can fake it, and still get the look! Try a magnetic or spring hoop ring. These look real, but they don’t require an actual puncture. Another positive is that you don’t risk having a scar. You have a lot of options when picking a fake nose ring, so play around with the look and feel.  Some fake nose rings are actually clip-ons that use small magnets that are placed on the inside of the nose. The nose ring itself shows as a small stud or bone that is attracted by the magnet. Fake nose hoop rings work differently. They come with a small spring that looks like a disc. The spring clips the nose ring onto the nose. These fake nose rings look real to most people. You can get these at common accessory stores. Take a hair straightener, and melt the little ball at the end so it’s flat and sets against your skin.  Take out your regular nose ring. Take petroleum jelly. It will make it easier for the clear nose ring to insert into your nose. Put it on the spot where you have the nose piercing. Put some of the jelly on the actual nose ring. Stick it into the nose. Wipe off the extra petroleum jelly.

If you’re worried about your surgery, don’t bottle it up.  Share your troubles with a family member.  If you’re really worried, you could even ask someone to accompany you.  Heading off to the hospital for surgery by yourself can feel lonely and increase your fear.  If you have a trusted friend or family member nearby right up until you head into the operating room, you can talk to them and you will feel better.  Sharing your anxiety with a loved one will allow you to relax a bit and let go of some of your fear.  For instance, you might open up with a loved one by saying:  ”I am quite scared of my surgery.” ”I fear I may die on the operating table.” ”I do not want to be cut open in surgery.” ”I’d feel much better if I didn’t have to go alone to my surgery.  Would you accompany me, please?” Psychologists are trained to help you deal with your fears.  There are two ways they might help you.  They might help you deal with the fear directly by walking you through the process and demonstrating how your fear is unnecessary.  Alternatively, they might help you confront the underlying issues that are causing your fear (which might include having a bad experience with surgery in the past, or seeing a loved one in pain due to a surgery they had).  Whatever the case, talking to a psychologist can often help you overcome your fear of surgery.  To locate a therapist in your area, use your favorite internet search engine.  Try a word string like “therapists nearby” or “therapists in [your city].” You can also ask your surgeon for a referral or try asking friends for a recommendation. Surgeries associated with particular conditions often have support groups to help people cope with the feelings about the surgery afterwards.  Cancer support groups, for instance, can help you cope with your recovery period after getting a tumor removed.  Look for a group in your area associated with your surgery or medical condition.  Talk to people in the group, and bond over your common surgery or medical condition. If you have continued...

If you’ve given her a reason to distrust you, such as cheating on her, being shady with other girls, talking about her behind her back, or just doing something to make her think that your intentions are less than pure, then the most important thing you should do is to give her an apology that is genuine and sincere. Look her in the eyes, put away all distractions, and make it clear that you recognize that you’ve made a huge mistake and want to make it up to her.  Don’t make excuses for why you were disloyal or hurt her feelings. Instead, focus on how much you regret it and how there’s no way you’ll do it again. Saying, “I’m sorry you’re so upset” makes it sound like you’re blaming her. Instead, say, “I’m so sorry that I acted like a real jerk. I take full responsibility.” Of course, no one said it was easy to apologize, but if you really want to gain her trust, then this is far better than being in denial about doing something wrong. Whether you’ve made a mistake and want her to forgive you or you’re just with a girl who needs some time to put those walls down, if you really want to gain her trust, then you have to give her time to open up and to feel safe with you. If you get impatient because she’s not opening up enough or not warming up to you after a few weeks, then you may be on the way to spoiling a good thing. If you’re trying to win her trust back after cheating, then the ball is really in her court and it may take her much longer than a few weeks to feel like she can trust you again.  If you cheated on her, then you have no right to be mad that she’s taking “too much time” to feel close to you again. It’s all up to her now. If she just has trust issues or has been hurt by boyfriends in the past, then the best thing you can do is reassure her that you’re different. That said, if you lose patience with her, she may be scared off. Show her that she’s worth the wait. If you want to gain her trust, then you have to let her make some of the calls. Whether you want to get more intimate, have her meet your...

If you’ve heard him tell you how busy he is again and again, saying that he doesn’t have ten free minutes for anyone, and then you heard that he spent his night out with a bunch of friends, then this may be a sign that he’s playing with you. The truth of the matter is that if a guy really wants to hang out with you, that he’ll find the time to do it. Though there are exceptions if he really does get super busy, if you find out that he’s spending that time with other people, then it should be a cause for concern. If he says he’s busy studying or doing work and then you find out that he’s been doing something else, even if he’s just hanging out with his brother, then he’s playing you. If he cared for you, then he’d be honest about what he was doing instead of lying. If your guy tries to change the subject any time you try to talk about the future, even if you’re only talking about your holiday plans, which are a month away, then this may be a sign that he’s playing you. If he’s serious about you, then he’ll want to see you as a part of his future and he won’t back off when you bring it up.  Of course, if you’ve been dating for three weeks and start talking about your wedding, it’s natural that he’ll freak out, but if you just bring up what you’ll both be doing a month from now, then he’ll have no reason to worry if he cares for you. Listen to how he talks about you and the relationship. If he never, ever brings up the future or includes you in his future plans, then he may be playing you. If you finally meet his friends or run into his friends and they say something like, “I didn’t know he had a girlfriend…” or just look surprised by your presence, then this is because the guy didn’t think your relationship was serious enough for him to bring it up to his friends. If he cares about you and you’ve been seeing each other a while, then he should be excited about the relationship and should want his friends to know who you are.

If you’ve just woken up, chances are, you have some dirt or “crust” in the corners of your eyes. Because pink eye involves a lot of crusty discharge around the eye, leaving the crust in your eyes from the night before adds to the natural look of infection and icky-ness. Pink eye can produce different colors and thicknesses of discharge depending upon how serious the infection is. In most cases, the discharge is thick and clear. By taking some clear lip gloss or petroleum jelly and spreading it about 15mm underneath the eye, you can create the illusion that your eyes are weeping thick liquid.  Make sure that the lip gloss you use has no sparkles in it so that people won’t be able to guess that it’s fake. Also, while you have the gloss and petroleum jelly on your face, make sure not to rub your eyes! If these substances come in contact with your eyes, you can experience great discomfort — and the chemicals in those substances are not good for eyeballs. If you've managed to work up a lot of tears in your quest for the perfectly fake pink eye, they should pool around the rims of your eyes. Depending upon how gullible your audience is, you could convince them that the tears are thin, clear discharge.

Image that you're hanging a cloth ribbon on a clothesline above your head. Lift your fingers, drop your wrist, and slowly lower your wrist. Be sure to lower your wrist as far as it will go. Imagine that you are smoothing out the ribbon. Afterwards, slowly raise your hand again, as if you have a balloon attached to your wrist. Repeat the process from the beginning with your opposite arm about 5 to 100 times. This exercise begins with extending your fingers straight. Then, make a fist, and extend your fingers straight again. Do this repeatedly, but each time you make a fist, alternate between the 3 choices: a straight fist, full fist, and hook fist. For example, grab the pen or pencil and twist it between your fingers. You can also open and close your hand, and gently stretch your fingers by moving them away from each other and then back together again. Regularly exercising your writing hand is important to prevent cramps. A simple way to remember this first movement is pretending you're signaling a stop sign. Afterwards, use your left hand to gently pull your fingers toward you, bending your right hand back. Hold this position for around 15 seconds. Repeat this exercise with both hands. Your palm should be facing your chest, and your fingers straight downwards. Take your opposing hand and gently press your fingers toward you. Hold this position for around 15 seconds. You can also do this exercise with your palm facing away from you and your fingers pointed up. In this case, you still press your fingers toward you. A stress ball is an easy way to stretch your fingers and wrists, while also strengthening them. This can help with stamina and reduce the likelihood of experiencing pain from writing. Most big-box stores and popular online suppliers sell stress balls Make sure your palms are facing away from you when you stretch your arms out in the opposite direction. Then, while holding your arms outward, reach them toward the ceiling, keeping your shoulders lengthened in line with your back.  Hold this position...

Imagine an average profit margin—the total profit from sales, minus how much it will cost you to run the store—and ask yourself if your business will be profitable on this basis. Try to avoid unrealistic assumptions.  Start with choosing the most visible location within your budget—perhaps next door to an established, popular business. Consider how much traffic you expect for each of the first six months. Which seasonal market factors will come into play, and how will they affect the business? How will you cope during the high and low seasons? The business plan should consider the effects of promotion. How much money will you spend on advertisement, and how much money do you expect this advertisement to make you? Every country has certain regulations that need to be followed before you can set up your dream store. What may be considered unregulated in one country might require official documentation in another. Be sure to understand the legal framework surrounding your business operation and whatever items you intend to deal with. For example: Some countries allow 100% firm ownership, while others don't. Taxes are also different for each country and state. As with any regulated activity, businesses require official permits prior to commencing operations. You will need several federal permits, as well as state permits depending on what state you live in, in order to sell goods. Just run a web search for "business licenses" and visit the .gov sites that pop up. Get your information from the relevant government authorities and prepare all documents as directed. If you find all this bureaucracy a bit daunting, you can hire a firm that specializes in streamlining the permit process. This route may cost a bit more, but it can ensure that everything goes smoothly and problem-free. Make sure that you have enough capital to lose money for 6-9 months before your initial financial bleeding stops.  Do not take shortcuts. Plan for at least 3-4 months before you invest your life savings or borrow money to set up a...

Imagine you really need to use the toilet, but you’re in a foreign country, can’t find a bathroom, and don’t speak the language. Welcome to a dog’s life. Teaching your dog how to ask to go outside by barking will help prevent messes in the house and make both your lives easier. Your dog needs to know she has to pee and poop outside before you can teach her to ask to go. Ask your dog to “speak”. When she does so, open the door and give the treat. After a few times, drop the “speak” command. Your dog should bark to come out. Open and give the treat. Now that your dog knows barking can open the door, you need to teach her to go outside to potty, not for treats. Do this training first thing in the morning, when your dog needs to pee. Stand outside and ask them if they need to come out. When they bark, open the door, praise them, and let them go potty. Praise them again after they pee or poo. Do this each morning for two weeks. With your hand on the door, ask your dog if she wants to go out and wait for a bark. Reward with praise as before. Do this for two weeks. Sit in the room with the door out, but act as if you have forgotten all about letting your dog out. Wait for her to bark, then immediately open the door for her to go out and offer praise. Shut you and your dog in a room different from the one with the door she goes out. Be patient and wait for her to bark, then immediately offer to let her outside and praise her when she goes. After two weeks of this, your dog should be expert at barking to go outside. Be sure you also respond to barks when you are not actively training. Every time your dog barks to be let out, she should be let out and praised.

Immediately after a fight or problem occurs, emotions tend to be the highest, but you cannot offer a truly sincere apology unless you have a full understanding of what you did that was wrong.  This will prevent you from apologizing for something that you don’t mean and will also help you begin the process of self-improvement.  Be sure to take responsibility for your role in the argument. How you apologize will depend on how you may have wronged the person. For example, you may want to compensate your friend monetarily or by finding another way to correct your mistake along with apologizing for it. Write a list of every reason your friend could possibly be upset.  Meditation can also be helpful.  After an argument, your mind can be in a frenzy.  Take a few moments to quiet your thoughts.  Sit in your room in silence and close your eyes.  Think about the problem that occurred and your role in it.  This will provide you greater clarity on the issue. Sometimes, merely thinking about the issue is not enough.  Get out your journal and write out your feelings including, how you feel about your friend, yourself, and the fight. This can help you gather your thoughts in an organized and constructive way. In addition to writing these lists, you could also consider writing a poem or a song to express your feelings. Sometimes, the greatest clarity can be provided by those who are outside of the situation.  Parents and grandparents often have greater wisdom from all of their life experiences and have very likely encountered a similar situation.  They will be able to give you insight on how to apologize and rectify the situation.  You might say something to them like “Me and my friend just got into a fight and I was wrong and want to apologize.  Do you have any advice on how to fix it?” They will also be able to provide you greater insight about yourself.  Perhaps they have noticed that you have a tendency to be hotheaded, and your fight with your friend was rooted in this particular behavior of yours.  Take the time to...

Immediately after the accident, check on the other drivers and passengers involved. Call 911 to get police officers to the scene, and request an ambulance if anyone is seriously injured.  If anyone is injured, you should always call the police immediately. Even for minor fender benders, you still want to call the police. Some states require you to file a police report if there is any damage at all to either vehicle. Avoid moving any person who is seriously injured, unless they are in immediate danger. Photos of the scene of the accident as well as the vehicles involved can help the insurance company make a preliminary assessment of the damage involved. You want to get the vehicles out of the road if it's safe to do so, but take photos before you move them.  Photos can also be used to support your claims, if the other driver later disputes your report to the insurance company. Photos also preserve the scene of the accident, and may reveal details that you didn't notice during the trauma of the immediate aftermath. For example, you may see security cameras that could have filmed the accident. Provided neither you nor the other driver are seriously injured, you should be able to share your names and addresses, as well as your insurance information.  Ideally, you want to exchange driver's license numbers, addresses, and phone numbers. If the other driver is uncomfortable giving you this information directly, it will be included on the police report. You should also take down the license tag number and vehicle identification number (VIN) of any other vehicles involved in the accident. If there are any people around the scene after the accident, get their names and phone numbers. Find out where they were and what they were doing when the accident occurred. Write down a brief description of what they saw, and ask if they would be willing to let you give their names and contact information to the insurance company. When police arrive at the scene, they will interview you and the other driver, as well as any...

Immediately after you receive the injury, your first priority should be to begin the healing process. Applying makeup to the black eye while it is still swollen could irritate the skin and cause skin redness.  Additionally, the cosmetics used to conceal your black eye are likely to wear off as you apply cold packs to the injured area, making application prior to treatment fairly pointless. Wait until you have entered the warm compress stage of treatment before applying any makeup to the injured area, and apply makeup as little as possible. If you feel you need to cover your eye when you need to leave the house or if you are having people over, that's okay, but when you're just at home on your own, you should avoid applying makeup. For best results, use a liquid corrective concealer in a yellow or green shade. Liquid corrective concealers are easier to apply and blend than most creams and require the use of less pressure on the skin.  You must use a corrective concealer first before using a standard concealer if you wish to disguise the black eye. Standard concealers match the tone of your skin and can only blend uneven tones together. Corrective concealers rely on the principle of complementary colors to correct discolored portions of skin. A yellow concealer generally works best for a black eye in its early stages, when it appears to have deep purple undertones. As the black eye lightens and takes on more red tones or yellow-brown tones, you may need to switch to a green corrective concealer. Apply the corrective concealer with your fingers. Use your fingers to dab specks of corrective concealer all around the blackened area of your skin. Use light pressure to gently and carefully blend the concealer into your skin, covering the entire damaged area. Once the corrective concealer has dried, use a normal concealer that matches your skin tone over it. A normal concealer can blend any uneven shading caused by the corrective concealer. The two concealers should be enough to hide your black eye without any...

Imperfections and dirtiness will still be visible after you apply stain to the concrete and seal it. All adhesives, dust, flaking paint, and stains should be removed with a thorough cleaning before you stain the concrete.  If your concrete is fresh poured or relatively clean, you may only need to give it a good rinse with water. Light dirtiness can usually be cleaned with a deck brush, mild soap, and water. Stubborn stains and grease can resist many conventional cleaners. When all else fails, use a little bit of degreaser with a deck brush to remove difficult blemishes. Freshly poured concrete generally needs to cure fully before stain can be applied. To make sure you don't waste supplies, wait at least 20 days after pouring before you stain. Just like the stain will color your concrete, if you get it on floor molding or the bottoms of doors and walls, it will color these parts of your home as well. Carefully tape off all edges where the concrete comes in contact with other parts of your home. When taping, use overlapping segments to decrease the chances of stain finding a crack in your tape job. In most situations, you'll be able to dilute the color of your stain to adjust its tint. Each brand of stain will be different, so you'll have to follow the label directions to ensure you dilute the color correctly. When you think you've got the tint just right, use a paintbrush to apply a little stain to an out of sight spot on the concrete so you have a better impression of how it'll look when applied. For most kinds of concrete stain, you'll need to lightly dampen the concrete with a hose before applying. Then, working from one end to the opposite side, brush the stain onto the concrete in an even layer.  If your stain is acid based, you'll need to wear latex gloves and safety glasses when applying it to protect yourself from getting burned. To make the job go quicker, use a sprayer. However, most concrete stains are acid based, so you'll want the sprayer to be made out of plastic, which can withstand the acid. ...

Improve your act by studying bands or acts you admire that already signed with labels. What do they do that you don't do? Think about their image, their music, and the way they relate to their fans. What works in your act? What could you do better? Learning and covering their songs can be a useful exercise. Figure out how they're constructing their music. What can you learn from them? To make it in this business, music has to be your life. Record labels won't throw money at you and hope for the best just because you're a "promising talent." They want to invest in polished, professional acts that will earn them a profit.  You have to devote yourself to this path 100% and give it your all. Show the labels your professionalism through your dedication to your craft, product, and image. Practice until you can play each song in your sleep, until the drummer's got every lyric memorized even though he doesn't sing. Set aside time for daily rehearsals, and focus on writing new material. Make the best music you can make.  Tape your rehearsals and watch back over the tape for ways you might improve. Polish your live show in the privacy of your practice space. Take risks when nobody will be around to notice. With enough practice, the quality of your gigs will reflect your professionalism and dedication. You need to strike a balance between your artistic vision and how marketable your music is. Your experimental jazzcore opera might be an awesome artistic direction to explore, but labels won't want to sell it. You need to make music that will appeal to a broad audience. Would your grandfather like your music? Would your friends? Would someone who didn't speak English like your songs? Give your audience some thought.  Make the music you want to make, but be realistic about your goals. If you don't want to compromise your vision, you might need to reconsider your major label aspirations. Focus instead on developing a fan base that will love your corner of the music world.

Improving your sleeping habits can be a drastic improvement for your mental health. Work on finding a sleep schedule that works for you. Here are some things that you can do:  Start going to bed and waking up at the same time every day and night. This will make you feel more well rested and will make it easier for you to fall asleep and wake up.  Start your day off on the right foot. Spring out of bed and drink a glass of water right away instead of hitting snooze five times before you roll out of bed. Develop an effective pre-sleep routine. Wind down in the hour before bed by shutting off your television, putting away your phone or tablet, avoiding loud noises, and reading in bed. Limit or eliminate caffeine from your diet, especially after noon. Caffeine will make it harder for you to fall asleep. Avoid taking naps that are longer than half an hour, unless you need them — they will only make you feel groggy and more tired. . Exercising for just thirty minutes a day will have a dramatic impact on your physical and mental health. Exercising can give you more energy and make you feel more motivated throughout the day. Find an exercise plan that works for you and stick to it.  Even taking a walk for just 20 minutes a day can help you get some exercise while you reflect. Find a gym or workout friend. This will make the experience more enjoyable. Set a goal when you work out. Maybe you can have a goal of training for a 5K, or learning how to do a tricky yoga pose. . Eating a healthy, balanced diet can also help you beat depression. Even if you're losing your appetite, you need to be determined to eat three meals a day. You don't need to try to lose weight or be incredibly healthy-conscious when you're dealing with your depression, but eating healthier food regularly will improve your mental and physical state.  Don't skip meals — especially not breakfast. Eating three meals a day will give you the energy you need to stay positive and focused. Add more fruits and vegetables into your diet. Substitute them for...

Improving your social life is as much about knowing what you want as finding people who want to be with you. Take some time to think about the kinds of people you like to hang out with. What do they do? How do they act? What are their "perfect Friday night" plans? Think about old friends you've had and why you enjoy their company. Think about:  Hobbies (what would you do together?) Demeanor (serious and academic vs. humorous goof-balls, or a mix of both) Interests (similar tastes in books, movies, music, sports, etc.) Conversation habits (sit, relax and talk vs. do a lot of activities) Energy levels (raging at a bar vs. chilling at a quiet cafe) Keep a smile on your face, stay well groomed, and wear decent, clean clothes. It's not about being shallow, but about giving a good impression of yourself. This makes people feel comfortable coming up to you to spend time.  Make sure you are as clean as possible. Teeth properly brushed and flossed, good deodorant, good perfume, hair clean, deeply clean and moisturized skin and clean clothes.  Keep up with a nice style that is still "you". You do not have to "dress up" to be more sociable, you just need to take care of yourself. This signals to people that you are willing to talk and want to be social. People will naturally flock to someone who exudes positive, social energy, and your body language is one of the easiest natural ways to do so. To have open body language:  Keep your arms to the side and your shoulders back, opening up your chest. Make eye contact with whoever is talking. Smile frequently. Turn your shoulders to face people as they speak. Keep your chin up, parallel to the floor. Stand and sit tall; avoid looking hunched over. This is a great, low-key way to practice your social skills in a location that you feel comfortable. You can control the number of people, the activities, and the amount of time you are hanging out. If you are especially shy or have trouble initiating conversations in a group, practicing at home is a great way to improve your...

In 1 inch there are 2.54 centimeters. To convert inches to centimeters, multiply the number of inches by 2.54. For example, to convert 9.41 inches to centimeters, you would calculate 9.41×2.54=23.9{\displaystyle 9.41\times 2.54=23.9}. Thus, 9.41 inches is the same length as 23.9 centimeters. In 1 foot there are 30.48 centimeters. So, to convert feet to centimeters, multiply the number of feet by 30.48. For example, to convert 7.2 feet to centimeters, you would calculate 7.2×30.48=219.46{\displaystyle 7.2\times 30.48=219.46}. So, 7.2 feet is equivalent to 219.46 centimeters. A yard is 3 feet. Since there are 30.48 centimeters in 1 foot, the amount of centimeters in a yard is triple that: 91.44. To convert yards to centimeters, multiply the number of yards by 91.44. For example, to convert 3.51 yards to centimeters, you would calculate 3.51×91.44=320.96{\displaystyle 3.51\times 91.44=320.96}. So, 3.51 yards is the same length as 320.96 centimeters.

In 1/2 cup of warm water, dissolve your yeast -- right in the glass measuring cup. Set aside while you move onto creating the dough. A stand mixer is best -- that thing is literally going to be your bread and butter. Without it, you'll be mixing till the cows come home. Which is, for the record, a long ways away. Add the milk and yeast mixture, still stirring. Make sure it's all evenly and thoroughly combined. Change to the dough hook and knead for 2-3 minutes only -- just until no longer tacky, adding a tablespoon or two of flour, if needed to sop up any extra moisture. Stick your finger in it -- if there's a bit of stick and a bit of residue, you're in the bread zone. It needs time to rise and the yeast to take action. When the time is up, place it on a floured surface and knead it a couple of times, then let it rest for 3 more minutes. Plastic wrap works well, though you can also throw a towel over it if you're in a pinch. They should be divided into 24 equal pieces and the pieces should be touching. Don't worry -- they'll get bigger! You can grease or spray the pan, too, for the record. This is the second round of rising the dough needs to go through to reach the appropriate size. Leave it on the counter or on the stove while you go about your day. When they're finished, take them out of the oven and brush a thing layer of butter on the tops of the rolls to give them that perfectly done, golden sheen. And then serve!

In English, the articles are “the,” “a,” and “an.” The way that Americans use these articles is unique when compared to other forms of English, but there are no strict rules for how to use them. In general, the article is only dropped for “church,” “college,” “class,” and a few other nouns. Try to repeat back a phrase that sounds odd to you by using the new article to get used to it.  An American would say they “go to college,” but they’d also say “go to the university.” A British or Irish speaker would say they “went to hospital,” but an American speaker always goes to “the hospital.” The difference between using “a” and “an” isn’t the first letter that follows the article. It’s actually whether the sound of the first syllable is a vowel or consonant. You always use “an” with vowel sounds, and “a” consonants. Since Americans pronounce “honor” like “on-er,” it’s “an honor” to meet someone if you’re speaking American English. Article usage is one of the things that can make learning English so difficult. Stick with it and you’ll get used to using the proper articles over time. Like Australian, British, and Irish English, there are a plethora of words that are unique to American English. Using a term like “motorway” or “ice lolly” is a dead giveaway that you aren’t an American English speaker. If you want to blend in, get used to using American terms and work on committing them to memory by using them every day.  It can be tough to get used to using American terminology if you aren’t familiar with it. Give it time. You’ll get used to it the more you talk and listen to Americans. Watching a lot of American movies and shows can give you a good sense of the everyday phrases that Americans use. If you can’t figure a word out based on context alone, write it down to look it up later. Americans have a lot of idioms, which are culturally-recognized phrases that differ from a phrase’s literal meaning. For example, when an American says that it is “raining cats and dogs,” they mean that it’s raining hard, not that...

In European-style dining, you don’t transfer your fork back and forth between hands to cut and eat. Instead, you will always hold your knife in your right hand and your fork in your left throughout the meal.  Use your fork to anchor your bite in place and cut it with your knife. Use your knife to gently push other pieces of salad onto your fork, such as a piece of vegetable or cheese, before taking your bite. If it’s available, use something like a crouton or bean at the end of the fork to anchor the food to the fork.  When you take your bite, rest the wrist of your right hand on the edge of the table. Place your left hand in the same position after you take your bite, and leave your hands in that position until you have finished chewing and are ready to cut your next bite. In European style, criss-cross the tips of your knife and fork across the top of your plate to indicate to the servers that you plan to continue eating, and have only taken a break to talk or drink. To say you are finished with your plate in European dining, place your knife and fork side by side at the 10 and 4 position on top of your plate. Make sure the tines of the fork are facing down.

In French, there are two different ways of saying "you." The vous form is the more formal version. When you're speaking to people you don't know, especially adults or people older than you, vous is appropriate.   Vous is also the plural form of "you" in French, so you would use it when addressing several people, regardless of their ages. Frequently you'll refer to someone as "monsieur" or "madame" if you're using the formal vous pronoun singularly. " The phrase "s'il vous plaît" can be translated to mean "If you please." It literally means "if it pleases you." The word plaît is the conjugated form of the verb plaire, which means "to please" or "to like." For example, you might say "Quelle heure est-il, s'il vous plaît?" to mean "What time is it, please?" The phrase "je vous en prie" is more accurately translated to "I beg of you." Just as such a phrase would be used in English, it's generally reserved for extreme, even desperate situations. For example, you might say "Ne me dénoncez pas, je vous en prie!" or "Don't report me, please!" This could also be translated as "Don't report me, I beg of you!"

In German, the verb for sit is “sitzen.”  The verb is pronounced “zitss-ihn.” Put the emphasis on the first syllabus in the word. The German verb for sit down is “sich setzen” (zeek zeh-tsihn). If you want to tell someone to sit, though, the quickest way to do that is to say, "sitz!" (pronounced as zihtss). Be aware this could be perceived as impolite! You will want to learn a few sentences that contain the word for sitting. Some people want to use German when commanding certain breeds of dogs to sit. You may, instead, need to speak German to a person!  To say sit down, say “setz dich” (zehts deekh). This differs from the verb itself because it's conjugated with dich, which means you.  Bittzen setzen sie sich means please take a seat (bit-tsihn zeh-tsihn zee zeekh). The ch is pronounced uniquely in German. It’s best to listen to it. Some have described it as sounding like an angry cat sound! It's a bit like a "kah" sound in English, but more gutteral.  Ich sitze means I am sitting (“eekh ziht-tsah”). Again, listen to the German version of –ch. Perhaps you want to say that you sat, not that you’re sitting. The past tense version of the verb sitzen is sass. Pronounce sass “sahss.”  The "a" sound is similar to the "o" in the English word bond.  Ich saß (I sat). The ß is the German symbol for a double s, “ss.” Du Saß (You sat, informal). Er saß (He sat). Wir saßen (We sat). Ihr saß (She sat). Sie saßen (They sat, formal). You can find detailed charts online for other tenses of the verb to sit, including the past perfect, future I and future II versions of the verb. For example, I have sat is “Ich habe gesessen” in German (pronounced Eek hah-bah Gih-seh-ssihn).

In Photoshop, the Puppet Warp tool is a quick, freehand way of manipulating an image related to the Warp tool. To use it, follow these steps:  Create a layer with the image you want to warp. Make sure the layer is selected in the Layers panel. Select Edit > Puppet Warp from the menu bar. When the image is selected for puppet warping, clicking will add "pins" (signified by small dots). Dragging one pin after it's placed will warp that portion of the image. All of the other pins will "lock" the area around them in place, preventing it from being distorted. Because of the way the pins work, it's usually a good idea to put a few pins in crucial locations on the image you want to warp. For instance, if you're using the Puppet Warp tool to move the position of someone's arm, you might put a pin on her hand, another on her elbow, and a third on her shoulder. This way, when you move any of the three, the rest of the arm won't deform by much. Once you've placed your array of pins, you can click and drag any pin individually to move it. This will warp the image accordingly, pushing or pulling the area around the pin as you move it. Puppet warping can take some time to master, but it's a quick, convenient way to make adjustments once you know how to use it.  With a point selected, you can use the arrow keys to make very minor adjustments. Note that you can ⇧ Shift+click to select multiple points at once. If you want to warp the image so that part of it goes behind another part, first, select the pin(s) on the screen you want to adjust. Then, use the "up" and "down" buttons next to "Pin Depth:" in the Options bar to move the selected portion in front or behind the rest. The following selections in the Options bar can be used to modify the way that the Puppet Warp tool works:   Mode: Adjusts how drastic the changes you make are. "Distort" makes your image especially elastic while "Rigid" makes your changes more minor.   Expansion: Allows you to expand or contract the outer edge of the mess formed by your pins.  Density:...

In Spanish-speaking cultures, a birthday is considered a family affair. Even though friends may be invited to the party, birthday parties are traditionally thrown by the family of the birthday celebrant. The whole family including extended family are typically there. If you're a friend at one of these parties, expect the family to be warm, loving, and inviting. Especially in Spain, you may find yourself hugging a lot of people you don't know. In Latin American countries, particularly Mexico, a girl's 15th birthday signifies her coming of age. The occasion traditionally begins with a church service and requires formal attire.  Part of the church service is the "misa de acción de gracias," through which the girl gives thanks for completing childhood. The "festejada" (birthday girl) traditionally receives gifts from her family, including tiaras and jewelry. The party typically includes an elaborate banquet of food, followed by music and dancing that can last into the wee hours. The "tres leches" cake is a giant, multi-colored cake that serves as the centerpiece for Mexican birthday parties. These cakes are often decorated in a theme reflecting something the birthday celebrant enjoys. For example, if the person celebrating their birthday is a huge fútbol fan, you could expect the "tres leches" cake to be iced to look like a fútbol pitch, complete with tiny players and fans in the grandstands cheering on their teams. A piñata is one of the most well-known Spanish traditions. These brightly colored papel maché figures come in various shapes and sizes and are filled with small toys and sweets. Partygoers take turns trying to hit the piñata with a stick until it bursts, spraying goodies everywhere for all the partygoers to have.  The donkey-shaped piñata typically sold in the US and Europe is rarely seen in Latin American countries. The piñata may have a shape that reflects the theme of the "tres leches" cake. While partygoers attempt to hit the piñata, the others sing the traditional piñata song, which starts "Dale,...

In William Golding's novel 'Pincher Martin', the stranded man actually built a figure out of rocks, which could be seen by passing ships. Recognized mountain distress signals are based on groups of three (six in the UK). A distress signal consists of three fires or piles of rocks placed in a triangle, or three blasts of a whistle, or three flashes of a light, each lit in succession, followed by a one minute pause and repeated until a response is received.  Three blasts or flashes is the appropriate response. If you are in clear view of boats, attempt to make a large red X somehow. Build big and unnatural looking shapes, with bright colors and something shiny. Use a radio, if available, to contact possible rescuers. Use signal mirrors, fires, flashlights, and whatever else available on hand to draw attention to yourself. This can be done while you wait. A desperate act can be lethal. Willpower is what you need to survive without food for weeks. Believe it or not, without the will to live, you won't. Try to envision the great life that you will enjoy one day; if you give up now, that will be the end.

In a clean plastic spray bottle, mix one part bleach with three parts water. Lay the pants you wish to bleach out flat on a plastic tarp or sheets of newspaper. This will prevent your flooring from becoming stained by the bleach. If you only want to bleach one side of the jeans, stuff the legs full of balled-up newspaper to prevent the bleach from soaking through. As you will be spraying the bleach, it is a good idea to wear safety goggles to protect your eyes. Once you are happy with your designs, you should leave the bleach to sit on the pants for about five to ten minutes to soak in. Put the pants through a normal wash cycle in your washing machine, without adding detergent. Dry thoroughly.

In a couple of sentences or less, describe the product that you’re reviewing.  You will reveal other details throughout your review, but the initial description will give your reader a sense of what you’re talking about. If it’s a movie or book, don’t spend your entire review summarizing the plot. There’s no need to give the entire story. Just a brief overview in 1-2 sentences will suffice. Give lots of detail and evidence for the argument that you’re making. If you’re reviewing a music album, talk about the instruments or vocals on a particular track. If you’re reviewing a movie, talk about why the cinematography is groundbreaking and give examples from the film. Your review will carry much more weight if you write in complete sentences, rather than fragments that leave the reader wanting more. Don’t write things like, “okay food, terrible service.” This doesn’t tell the reader anything specific and therefore doesn’t make for a helpful review. Skip words like “meh” and “okay.”  These words are not very useful in terms of describing a product. If you want to write a compelling review that gives the reader an idea of what you experienced, choose more descriptive words.Also remember that when writing your review it needs to flow and should be consistent Relate your review directly to your personal experience. Don’t use vague statements and generalities. People reading your review will want to know about your experience, so they can determine if they’d like to use that service as well.  Tell a story about why you like to go to a particular nightclub or why you find your yard service so reliable. Think about where this product fits among similar products. You should certainly judge the product on its own merits, but people reading your reviews will find it useful to have a reference to a restaurant they’re familiar with. This makes the comparison – and thus, the evaluation of whether to try a product or service – easier for readers of your review. If possible, give your reader a sample of what you’ve experienced....

In a healthy relationship, you should each still have your own hobbies and friends. Not only will that help you feel more fulfilled and self-confident, but it will make your relationship stronger. Having a little time apart allows you to miss each other, and you'll have more to talk about when you do see each other!  For instance, you might go for a bike ride with your best friend while he's watching a football game with his buddies. Of course, if you have the same interests, feel free to enjoy them together! Just don't be afraid to do things on your own, as well. When you get the chance, make it a priority to spend time taking care of yourself. You'll feel happier and more relaxed, and your guy will likely love knowing that you can be responsible for your own well-being. This may make him more likely to propose, but even if it doesn't, you'll still get all the benefits from that self-care! Self-care might be something physical like relaxing in a bubble bath while you deep condition your hair, but it could also mean anything that makes you feel mentally, spiritually, or emotionally healthy, like practicing yoga or meditation, going for a long, quiet walk, or writing in your journal. Almost everyone struggles with self-doubt sometimes. If you start to feel like you aren't good enough, make a list of your best qualities. Then, look in the mirror and say those things out loud to yourself.  For instance, you might say, "I'm a really good friend, and I try hard to make other people feel good about themselves. I'm worthy of being loved." If you're struggling with your self-confidence because you haven't been proposed to, you might remind yourself of the good things your guy has done for you. For example, you might say, "Jason drove 2 hours to see me the day I failed my Economics test. I know he loves me, even if we're not engaged." Being able to contribute to the household and make your own financial decisions will give you a great deal of self-assurance. Pursue a career that suits your personality, talents, and...

In a large bowl, mix 2 pounds (970 g) of sifted powdered sugar, ⅓ cup (80 mL) of whole milk, and 2 large egg whites. Use an electric mixer on low to beat them together until they form a thick icing that’s you’re still able to pipe with a pastry bag.  You may need to add a little extra milk to the icing to make it thin enough for piping. Add a couple of drops at a time and stir, so you don’t accidentally make it too thin. You can refrigerate the icing for up to two days if you store it in an airtight container. You may want to make it ahead of time, so it’s ready when it’s time to decorate the cookies. If you’re short on time, you can substitute canned vanilla frosting from the grocery store for the royal icing. Royal icing is naturally white, but depending on how you plan to decorate your cookies, you may want to color it. Use food coloring drops or paste to color the icing before putting it in a piping bag.  When you add the food coloring, start gradually so you don’t make the icing too dark. You may want to divide the icing, and color it in multiple shades to fit the occasion. Once the icing is the right consistency, place it in a piping or pastry bag. Make sure that the bag has a fine tip attached to make decorating easier. If you don’t have a piping or pastry bag, you can use a squirt bottle to dispense the icing on the cookies.

In a medium saucepan, pour ½ cup (118.2 ml) of water, ¼ cup (59.1 ml) of brown sugar and ½ teaspoon (30 drops) of vanilla extract. Cook the mixture over medium heat until it reaches a boil. Then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for a minute or two. By this time, you should see that the sugar has dissolved and the syrup looks uniform in texture. Stir occasionally so that the sugar doesn't stick to the sides. After the sugar has dissolved and the mixture has turned into a thick syrup, take the arnibal syrup off the heat. Stir it with a spoon to ensure it doesn't stick to the sides of the saucepan, then put the saucepan aside. Set up a steamer on the stovetop over medium heat.

In a memoir, you are the main character of your own life story. Many memoirists use the facts of their life story to create an engaging tale for the reader. Because you are relying on your own memories as source material for the story, you may end up describing things differently than others might remember it. The key is to write down things as you remember it, in the most honest way possible. Keep in mind memoirs are different from autobiographies in that memoirs should only cover certain key aspects of your life, not your life from birth until the present day. Most memoirists struggle to begin their life story and are not sure where to start. Depending on your life story, you may reach out to other family members for details on a childhood memory or event. But it’s important that you also focus on your personal experiences and your recollection of a childhood memory or moment, even if it may be flawed. Often, the best memoirs are about the process of remembering an event, or are about processing a moment in the past that felt important. There are several good examples of memoir, some of which are considered classics of the genre:   Speak, Memory by Vladimir Nabokov. Nabokov is a highly regarded fiction writer, but one of his most celebrated works is his memoir of his childhood in Russia. The book is a good example of using literary prose and masterful storytelling to share a personal history.  The Year of Magical Thinking by Joan Didion. Didion’s memoir focuses on the sudden death of her husband and the death of her adult daughter a few months later. This is a great example of using memory to inform the present, which for Didion, is colored by extreme grief and a sense of mortality.  Maus by Art Spiegelman. This is a graphic novel that uses animals to tell Spiegelman’s father memories of being imprisoned in a concentration camp during the Holocaust. Spiegelman’s use of animals in fact makes the memoir feel that much more universal and relatable.  The Woman Warrior by Maxine Hong Kingston. Kingston’s memoir...

In a mop bucket, combine ¾ cup olive oil (180 mL) with ½ cup (120 mL) lemon juice into a gallon (3.8 L) of hot water. The lemon removes grime, but the oil shines the floor. Remember to wring out the mop thoroughly so it doesn’t leave puddles of water on the floor. It should not be dripping. Use a cloth mop or spray bottle instead of a cotton mop in order to better control the amount of water you use. Again, as you mop, look for any water you’ve left behind. Pick up excess water with a clean towel. This prevents the water from soaking in and damaging the wood. Stay off the floor for a few hours and the solution will dry on its own. There’s no need to rinse the floor with water. The oil will make the floor shine.

In a single, microwaveable bowl, add one cup of rice, and two cups of water. If you want to make more rice, make sure to add more water at the same ratio.  For example, for 2 cups of rice you’d use 4 cups of water, for 3 cups of rice, 6 cups of water. Make sure you have a big enough bowl. Amount of time you keep your rice in the microwave depends on its wattage.  For a 750W microwave keep your rice cooking for 6 minutes. For a 650W microwave keep your rice in for 7 minutes. Covering your bowl with plastic wrap will steam it and completely cook it.  Do not poke holes on the top of the plastic wrap. Make sure to use wrap that can be microwaved. Refer to your microwave’s instruction manual to see how to reduce its settings to medium. Not reducing the settings could result in overcooked or burnt rice. Do not stir your rice at any time during the cooking process. Your rice should not be completely cooked. Fluff with your fork to break up the rice before serving it. Be careful when taking the bowl out of the microwave. It will be hot.

In a sink or bathtub, fill the bottom with a few inches of lukewarm water. You don’t want the water to be cold, but you don’t want it to be too hot, either. Lukewarm water will be the most comfortable for the cat, and won’t be too shocking or startling for it when you place the cat in the water. When placing the cat in the tub, hold the cat gently by the scruff on the back of its neck. Ask the friend helping you to gently hold the cat’s back end. If the cat is especially angry, it will be especially important to keep it as still as you possibly can. However, you want to be as gentle as possible so you don’t injure or scare the cat. Keep the door shut. Wherever you’re bathing the cat, try to keep the cat contained in that space, in the event that the cat does break loose from your grip and jump out of the tub. After you use a spray nozzle or cup to wet down the cat’s fur, apply the shampoo. While your friend helps you hold the cat in place, gently apply shampoo and massage it into its fur. If your cat has very thick or long fur, you can dilute the shampoo to keep the cat’s fur from getting too sudsy. Try using one part shampoo with five parts water, then apply that diluted version to your cat’s fur. Avoid getting water or shampoo on your cat’s face, or in its ears. When wetting the cat down, spray or pour water away from its face. Use the damp washcloth you have handy, instead, to gently wipe the cat’s face clean. Again, take care to keep soap and water away from your cat’s face when rinsing out the shampoo. Using your hand, gently push water and shampoo out of the cat’s fur in the direction of hair growth as you rinse. This will help ensure you get all the suds out, and will also help eliminate excess water from the cat’s fur as you rinse. It’s important you make sure to rinse out all the soap. Leftover residue from soap can irritate your cat’s skin, causing the cat to feel itchy and scratch at himself. It can also be a bit sticky, and make more dirt end up clinging to the cat’s fur even after it’s dry. Once...

In a skillet, heat a neutral oil such as grapeseed or vegetable oil over medium-high heat until shimmering. You can use butter as well, but lower the heat to medium—butter has a much lower smoking point. These ferns should be steamed or boiled before adding them. Sautéing alone is not sufficient to prevent illness. Add salt to taste, and thinly sliced garlic or shallots if you like. Continue cooking for about another minute.

In a small bowl, mix together paprika, lemon pepper, garlic powder, dried basil, onion powder, and thyme. To this, add salt and pepper as desired to give a good taste — a teaspoon or two of each should be plenty. In a microwave or a small saucepan, melt the butter until completely liquid. Let the butter sit until it is still liquid but cool enough to handle safely. Carefully dip each fillet in the melted butter, letting the excess moisture drip off. Transfer the buttered fillets to a clean platter. Using about a tablespoon of dry rub per fillet, coat the buttered catfish with the rub all over. Apply the rub generously — if you have any extra, feel free to sprinkle it over the rest of the fish. This frying method doesn't use any cooking fat beyond the little butter you have handy. This gives the fish a distinctly different texture than you'd get if you breaded and fried it in a fe,w inches of oil — it will have a thin, flavorful, almost "burnt" exterior. For this reason, you'll want to heat the skillet on the stove without oil for about 10 minutes.  The pan will be very hot at this point, so use all necessary caution. If the pan has a metal handle, use a towel or oven mitt to handle it. Again, cast iron pans are best for their ability to retain heat, but any thick frying pan will work. As soon as you add the fish to the pan, it should start sizzling immediately. The heat may cause it to stick to the pan. This is OK. The meat should cook very quickly in the hot pan. After about two or three minutes, the fish should be flaking easily. Flip it over, scraping the blackened material off of the bottom of the pan and cook the other side until it is similarly cooked.  Drizzle a little butter on the upper side of each fillet as it cooks. This will provide a little extra lubrication when you flip the meat, helping to prevent sticking. Again, it's alright if the fish sticks to the pan a little. Scrape it off of the pan and keep going. The blackened texture that will result from this is exactly what you're going for with...

In a small cup, mix ¼ to ½ teaspoon (1½ to 3g) of baking soda with enough water to form a paste. A paste of about 2 parts of baking soda mixed with 1 part of water is easier to apply and more effective than baking soda alone. Avoid making a paste with baking soda and lemon, strawberry, or any other fruit juice. Fruit juices are acidic and could erode your teeth's enamel, especially when combined with baking soda or other abrasive products. your teeth with the baking soda paste for 1 to 2 minutes. Dip a soft-bristled brush into the paste, and gently scrub your teeth using circular motions. Brush all around instead of scrubbing 1 spot for the entire 2 minutes. Be sure not to brush hard or you might hurt your teeth.  Alternatively, use your fingertips to gently rub your teeth with the paste. Rub in soft circles, and don’t use too much force. If you have receding gums, avoid brushing the base of your teeth and around your gum line with baking soda. The substance that covers your teeth below the gums is softer than enamel and prone to damage. After brushing for 2 minutes, spit out the baking soda and rinse your mouth with water or mouthwash. Give your toothbrush a thorough rinse as well. Note that you shouldn’t rinse after brushing with a fluoride toothpaste, as rinsing reduces fluoride’s beneficial effects. For this reason, don’t brush or rinse with baking soda right after brushing with regular toothpaste. If you really need to rinse away visible residue after using regular toothpaste, use as little water as possible. At most, brush your teeth with baking soda paste every other day for 1 to 2 weeks. Then cut back to doing it just once or twice a week. Since it’s abrasive, using baking soda more frequently may damage your teeth.  Keep in mind that brushing your teeth with baking soda should not replace brushing your teeth with regular toothpaste. Brushing twice a day with a fluoride toothpaste, flossing daily, and regular dental checkups are the best ways to keep your teeth healthy. Before brushing with baking...

In a small mixing bowl, whisk together ⅔ cup of milk (160ml) and one whole egg. Dip the pike fillets into the dairy mixture, then coat both sides in flour (use two rounds of flour if you prefer crispier fish). Set the dredged fillets aside on a separate floured plate.  For added flavor, season the flour mixture with spices like salt, pepper, parmesan cheese, garlic or onion powder.  Batter for deep-fried pike can be made by combining about a cup of flour with the dairy ingredients and giving the fillets a preliminary dip in an egg wash. For pan-fried pike, pour in about a ⅔-1 cup of peanut or canola oil (160-240ml); for deep-fried fish, you’ll need to use as much as a quart in order to totally submerge the fillets. Heat the oil over medium-high heat until it begins to sizzle. Make sure that the pan you’re using is roomy enough to hold the oil and fish fillets without spilling or splattering. Depending on the size and thickness of the fillets you’re preparing, it may take a little more or less time to cook them to the perfect crispy finish. Your eyes will be the best judge here. When the fillets are done to your liking, use a pair of tongs to carefully remove them from the pan and set them aside on a layer of paper towels to soak up the excess oil.  If you’re pan frying the fillets, don’t forget to turn them over so they cook evenly on both sides.  Hot oil tends to cook fish very quickly. Be ready to take the pike out when the batter just begins to darken. French fries, hushpuppies, and coleslaw make a perfect match for the mild crunch of fried pike. Some lighter fare could also include slow-simmered green beans or potato salad. Dig in while it’s hot!  Try serving fried pike with baked beans and toasted, buttered bread for a twist on classic fish and chips.  Enjoy fried pike with savory tartar sauce or a splash of malt vinegar.

Instead, experiment with layering patterned sweaters, shirts, and dresses that you already own. Thrift shopping is another way to get a good bargain on geek chic items! High-waisted shorts, pants, and skirts are both geeky and stylish. There are tons of different options, so pick the ones you like best. Plaid and pleated skirts, inspired by traditional school uniforms, are cute and a little geeky at the same time. Pick a pleated skirt, a plaid skirt, or one that’s both! You can even use an old school uniform skirt, if you have one. Invest in a few graphic T-shirts with fun, geeky designs--think comic book characters, Star Wars, anime, and cute animals! Graphic tees  are super versatile, and pair well with your high-waisted jeans or pleated skirt. Shirts with collars and buttons scream geek chic. Button your shirt all the way up for an extra geeky but fashionable look. Button-up or collared shirts look great when paired with a pleated or plaid skirt. Tuck it in for a streamlined look.
