Curly hair is dryer than regular hair, and because of this it's more prone to damage. It's a good idea to baby your hair slightly during the shampooing process if you have curly hair. Purchase shampoos made for damaged hair, which include milder ingredients that are less taxing on hair.  Make sure to buy salon products and not drugstore products; drugstore shampoos and conditioners are often diluted, making them less effective. If you can't find a shampoo for dry or damaged hair, some stores sell shampoos for curly hair specifically. The formula in these shampoos are similar to the formula in most products sold for damaged hair. If you have curly hair, you should not shampoo it every day. Because curly hair is typically also dry, it doesn’t need to be washed as often as straight hair. Shampooing too frequently can dry out your hair and cause it to look frizzier.  Shampoo your hair no more than twice a week. When you do shampoo, you can expect some tangles afterwards. Curly hair is very prone to tangles. Brush it gently to avoid damaging your hair. Co-washing simply means conditioning your hair in the shower but not adding shampoo. This can be particularly beneficial to curly hair, as it needs moisture replenished more often than other hair types.  Read product labels before choosing a conditioner. Products that contain silicone-based ingredients, which are ingredients that end in "-one", should be avoided. Such products will be very harsh on your hair. After conditioning your hair, see how it feels. If you hair feels spongy or mushy, you may be overdoing it. You usually only need a quarter-sized drop of conditioner.  If you have dermatitis, co-washing may make your condition worse. Talk to a dermatologist before you begin co-washing. Keep in mind that while co-washing is great for adding moisture to your hair, it doesn’t clean it. Deep conditioning treatments are important to replenish moisture in curly hair that has dried out. If your hair starts to feel frizzy and dry, do a deep conditioning treatment and...

Cut 2 yards (1.8 meters) of string. Start by tying a knot at the top of the hoop. Tie a double or triple knot to ensure that the string is secure. Once the circle is small, about the size of a penny or dime, tie a knot around the next string instead of hitching it. Tie a double or triple knot to make sure the string is secure and will not come undone. Then trim off any extra string with scissors.

Cut a hole in the bag the frozen corn is packaged in and begin to pour the corn out into a microwave safe container or bowl. Add any seasoning you would like to your corn before placing it in the microwave. Try using at least salt and pepper. Microwaves vary in strength and consistency, some heat items quickly while others take much longer. Instead of trying to microwave the frozen corn all at once use a handful of shorter times and stir the corn in between. The overall microwave time of corn should be around 2-3 minutes on a high setting. Continue heating and stirring the frozen corn until it has been heated to your desired temperature. Once heated properly, remove from the microwave and enjoy!

Cut a potato in half, and then press the cut tuber against the floor. Any stray pieces of glass will be caught in the potato's flesh, and you can throw the potato away.  Any root vegetable can be used to collect glass shards from the floor, but potatoes have a good amount of surface space, are easy to grip and are relatively affordable. The potato also works well to clean up broken glasses inside a dishwasher. Start by shining a flashlight into the dishwasher to see where the broken glass is. When you see the reflective glint of glass against the beam, press a cut potato gently but firmly onto the shiny surface. Throw the potato away when you're finished, and run the dishwasher again to rinse away any stray pieces of glass. A few pieces of white bread make excellent sponges to collect any stray pieces of glass that might remain after you've cleaned the area of the larger fragments. Take a piece of bread, and press it down on the area where you suspect the broken glass is. The glass will embed itself into the soft bread.  Bread works well in hard-to-reach spots where broken glass can be found. When your bread is getting hard to hold safely, throw it away and use another piece. Repeat until you're sure you've covered the entire area. To use this method, it's a good idea to tear off about 12 inches of duct tape. Holding each end of the tape, lay the tape against the surface where the glass fragments are found. Press down on the tape gently, as if you're trying to apply it to the surface. Then, remove the tape. Any glass fragments that had been on the floor will be stuck to the underside of the tape.  Any tape will work for this method, but duct tape is ideal for its sturdy texture. The width of duct tape also means it will cover the surface area more quickly than other tapes. Fold the tape onto itself, and then throw it away into a plastic or paper bag. Repeat as often as you need to until the whole area is clear of glass. If it's a thin towel, consider folding the paper towel in half again so that it's extra...

Cut a subpatch out of thin but solid material (e.g. a piece of an old t-shirt). Cut a patch slightly larger and wider than the tear you are repairing. Round the corners for easier insertion. Use tweezers to insert the subpatch under the tear. Smooth out the subpatch behind the leather; be careful not to do further damage to the leather. Apply a flexible craft glue to a large needle, palette knife, or plastic knife. Apply craft glue to the underside of the leather and the subpatch underneath. Do this all around until the tear is glued shut. Flatten the surface of the repair and wipe off excess glue with a wet cloth. Stronger adhesives may have to be cleaned up with rubbing alcohol. Apply leather filler to the tear in a small thin layer. Some fillers can be force dried with a heat gun or blow dryer. Others must be allowed to cure on their own. Repeat the process until the surface is level. Do a final thin coat and emboss or texturize the compound with a gloved hand or saran wrap. Allow to cure. If necessary, gently polish any rough spots with 500 grit wet or dry sandpaper. Begin with the repaired area. Dab or stipple a thin layer of dye with a sponge, brush or foam applicator. Allow to dry. Work surrounding areas as needed.

Cut the 2x6s for both ladder risers to about 6" longer than the total height of the bed so far. Cut one of the ends of one riser to a 15 degree angle, using the miter or radial arm saw. Lean this piece, the 15 degree cut, on the ground against the outer board in its proper final position and then make a mark even with the top of the outer board. Cut this at 15 degrees also. Lean the risers back against the outer board and mark a 1 ½" deep notch on the riser. This will allow the  risers to fit securely to the outer board. Cut the notch as far as possible with a rotary saw and finish the cuts with a hand or hacksaw. Use this riser as a template for the other riser and make them match. Measure and mark the spaces between the steps of the ladder, making sure each step is level. Drill countersunk pilot holes through the face of the risers and into each step. Secure each step with four 2 ½" screws. From the inside of the outer board, drill pilot holes through outer board and into each riser of the finished ladder. Secure it in place with four 2 ½" lag bolts and washers. Attach two riser supports to the ladder. Drill countersunk pilot holes through the riser supports and into the riser using four 2 ½" screws. Ensure that the top of the riser supports line up with the top of the side rail. Attach two raiser supports to the bottom of the ladder by drilling countersunk pilot holes through riser supports and into the ladder using four 2 ½" screws. Ensure that the bottom of the riser supports line up with the bottom of the ladder. Drill pilot holes through risers and into the outer board. Secure the entire ladder assembly to the outer board using two 4" lag bolts and washers. Buy a twin mattress and enjoy your new bed!

Cut the fresh white bread of your choice into thick slices. With a knife, remove the crust from each slice. Place the bread on a drying rack and leave on the counter overnight to become stale. If you’ve forgotten this step, you can dry the bread in the oven. Preheat the oven to a very low temperature. Cut the bread and remove the crust. Put the bread on a baking sheet and place in the oven. Once the bread feels dry to the touch, remove it from the oven. Do not toast the bread. Peel the large white onion. Cut the onion into quarters. Stud each quarter with 1 to 2 cloves. Pour ½ pint soy milk into a sauce pan. Add the onion to the pan. Gradually heat the soy milk to a boil. Once the soy milk comes to a boil, remove it from the heat. Cover the pan with a lid. Allow the mixture to infuse for 1 hour. While the sauce infuses, prepare your bread crumbs. Tear apart the stale bread into cubes over a mixing bowl. The mixing bowl will catch the cubes and all of the crumbs. After 1 hour, uncover the infused sauce. Add 1 knob (1 ½ to 2 tablespoons) of vegan margarine. Pour in the bread crumbs. Season the sauce with salt and pepper to taste. Return the saucepan to a burner. Let the sauce simmer over a very low heat until it is thick. This will take approximately 15 minutes. Once the sauce is thick, remove the pan from the heat. Take out the onion and add a splash of vegan cream if desired. Pour the bread sauce into a warmed bowl or gravy boat and serve to your guests.

Cut the working yarn of your last round about 6 inches (15 cm) from the last stitch. Then, tie the new yarn to the base of the yarn you just cut, so that it is close to the last stitch you worked. Use the desired stitch to crochet into the first stitch and start the new round. You can use either a decorative stitch or a simple stitch to work the new round. Working increases will help to keep the mandala lying flat. To figure out how many times you need to work an increase per round, multiply the round number you are on by the number of stitches you worked in the first round.  For example, if your first row had 12 stitches, then you would multiply 12 by 4 to get the number of stitches for the fourth round, which would be 48. That means that if your third round had 36 stitches total, then you would need to work 12 increases in the fourth round. Make sure to space out the increases instead of doing them all at once. For example, if you have 36 stitches and need to work 12 increases, then you would crochet twice into 1 stitch on every third stitch in the round. You may make your mandala as large or as small as you like. Smaller mandalas are great for coasters, while larger mandalas can be used as potholders or even decorative tablecloths. Keep working rounds until your mandala is the size you want it to be. After you complete a round in a new color, weave in the tail of that yarn before switching to a new color. Use a yarn or tapestry needle to weave in the end. You can simply sew the end of the yarn into the last row of stitches you worked.  Use the same technique to weave in the tail for the last round you work when you are ready to complete your mandala. To finish your crocheted mandala, tie the final tail of the yarn through the last stitch to secure it and use a yarn or tapestry needle to weave in the end.

Cut up an apple and a pear to use in this autumn smoothie. Peel the fruit first so that you don't end up with tough skins that will be difficult to blend. This wholesome smoothie tastes best with a thick, rich texture. Use a cup of whole plain yogurt with a creamy top. Adding 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon and a dash of nutmeg to this smoothie gives it the flavor of fall. Use 1 tablespoon (14.8 ml) of maple syrup to sweeten it. Place the apple, yogurt, spices, and maple syrup in the blender. Blend the ingredients until they are completely smooth and creamy. Add a little milk if you want to thin it out. Pour it into glasses. Sprinkle a bit of cinnamon on top for garnish, then serve.

Cut your roses in the morning. You may cut them as early as you have daylight, which can be anywhere from 5:00 am to as late as 10:00 am depending on the time of year. Cut your roses earlier if the weather is hot. In contrast, cut your roses later if there is a lot of morning dew.  Try not to cut your roses at midday or later as they will have the least amount of substance. Keep your roses cool. Roses will last longer in cool weather and deteriorate in heat. If the weather is cool, you may be able to cut your roses later in the day. The degree of openness you want for your roses depends on their intended use. Cut the roses just after their budding stage as the petals just start to unfurl if you want them to last longer, like in the use of a bouquet. The variety of rose will open determine when you should cut them as some may be cut at a more open stage. For example St. Patrick and Moonstone roses have many petals and can be cut when they are more open. Cut the stems at an angle with clean, sharp cutters. The angle prevents the rose from standing flat, blocking any water from being absorbed. Place the roses in lukewarm or cold water as soon as they have been cut. Re-cut the stems when you have them underwater to eliminate air bubbles that can lead to premature wilting and shorten the life of your rose. Remove any foliage below the waterline if you’re using the roses for a bouquet. Fill a bucket of water so that the stem of the flower is completely under water but the bloom remains dry. Let the flowers drink the water in a cool and dark room for an hour. Refrigerate your roses at 38 degrees fahrenheit or until you are about to use them. Cut roses will last longer if they are placed in the fridge overnight as you sleep. Florists bread roses to last long once placed in a vase. If you are using you own roses, make note of which last longer once cut. Hybrid teas tend to last longer than antique roses. Varieties that tend to last longer in vases are: Crystalline Secret Red Intuition St. Patrick Veteran’s Honor Black...

Cutting back during fall or winter weather could expose the avocado tree to cold temperatures and frost, so it’s important to prune in warmer temperatures. The optimum times are the first few weeks of spring or summer.  To promote overall regrowth, prune back branches in the spring.  Summertime pruning promotes regrowth length and makes the tree grow wider and taller. Avocado trees tend to have thick, lush canopies of leaves, sometimes leaving the bottom branches to wilt in shade. Create little “windows” in the canopy by pruning back a few of the topmost branches.  Be careful not create too many open areas in the canopy, though, as this could expose the tree’s major branches to heavy sunlight.  A conical or pyramidal tree shape is best for even sun exposure. Re-shaping is essential if the tree's branches start tangling with another's, or if the branches are blocking you from irrigating and mowing the area.Use loppers to cut away wild side branches if the tree’s growth gets out of hand. Focus on smaller branches, pruning  several on each side, and only prune 1 major branch per year.  Aim for a symmetrical conical shape, which provides the best amount of sun exposure. Re-shaping will likely make fruit yield drop drastically that year, but it should stimulate fruit growth in 2 years. Remember to be extremely careful with this kind of heavy pruning! If you prune too much, you can permanently stunt the tree’s fruit growth. Keep track of how many branches you remove from each side and mirror your cuts on the other side of the tree as well. It’s important to prune the sides of the tree symmetrically, making identical cuts to either side, to balance the tree’s weight. For example, if you prune several branches on one side of the tree, it may stunt fruit growth on that side. When the fruit grows, the tree’s weight will be unevenly balanced and make it more susceptible to strong wind and harsh weather. Use your loppers to trim back the top slowly, removing only 1 major branch per summer, starting with the tallest. This...

Cutting down on your shampoo routine to two to three times a week will allow the oils in your scalp to penetrate your hair. Your hair can then hydrate and repair itself.  If you notice your scalp gets very oily or itchy after shampooing for only two to three times a week, you may want to increase the amount of times you shampoo every week. To properly shampoo your hair, only rub it into your scalp, massaging your scalp as you do this, and then let the shampoo run down the strands of your hair as you wash out the shampoo. Unlike shampoo, it’s important that you always use conditioner on your hair when you get it wet in the shower. Conditioner can help to replace the lipids and proteins in your hair shafts and allow your hair to grow longer and healthier. Rinsing your hair with cool water at the end of a hot shower can help to seal the cuticle and give your hair more durability when you style it. It is especially important to cold rinse after conditioning. The cold water will seal the hair cuticles and lock in moisture from the conditioner. Though you may be in the habit of wrapping and twisting your hair in a towel once you get out of the shower, doing this can cause breakage and put stress on the strands of your hair. Wet hair is particularly fragile, so substitute the post-shower towel wrap with a gentle pat down using a dry towel. If you like to wrap your hair in a towel, you can try using thin towels and soft microfiber towels. These towels are made of a material that is gentle on your hair and dries it well without breakage. Over-brushing your hair every day can actually be bad for your hair and lead to poor growth. Instead, use a boar bristle brush a few times through your hair before bed. This will help to distribute the oils in your scalp onto your hair so it stays moisturized, naturally.  Start at your scalp and use even strokes to go through each section of your hair at least once. Brushing once a day before bed can also increase circulation on your scalp, which can improve its health and encourage...

Cutting the butter smaller will make it easier to mix. You can use a handheld beater, an electric mixer, or a food processor with a whisk attachment. You will be adding the rest of the sugar later; adding the sugar a small amount at a time will help prevent it from flying out everywhere. Adding only 1 teaspoon of milk or cream will make the frosting more stiff and is perfect for designing using a frosting tip but if you prefer a more loose and 'spreadable' butter cream you can opt for 2 tablespoons (29.6 ml). If you're still uncertain with the amount of milk or cream to add, you can just add 1/2 a teaspoon first to check. You can also substitute the vanilla extract for 1 teaspoon of a different flavor. For more ideas, click here. For a lighter buttercream, consider using milk instead of whipping cream. If you would like to make your buttercream less sweet, then add a pinch of salt. You can leave the buttercream plain, or you can make it coloring by adding a few drops of food coloring or gel icing coloring. Keep in mind that some flavorings, such as cocoa powder, will already tint the icing darker, so the coloring will not show up. This will give you frosting that is light and fluffy. You will need to beat it for about two to three minutes.  If the cream is too thick, add some more cream, milk, or half-and-half. Start with one tablespoon, mix, then add more if necessary.  If the cream is too thin, add a little bit more confectioner's sugar At this point, you can spread the buttercream over a cake or some cupcakes, or you can store it in a plastic Ziploc bag or an airtight container until you are ready to use it.  Buttercream will stay fresh in the refrigerator for 2 weeks.  Cakes and cupcakes frosted with buttercream will stay fresh for 3 days.

Cutting the placenta before the elastic walls of the blood vessels have contracted down can make hemorrhage from the puppy more likely. Leave the placenta intact. It will soon dry up, contract down and break off. It is not necessary to apply disinfectant to the puppy’s belly button and placental stump. If the whelping box is kept adequately clean, the belly button should remain healthy. It is important to keep the whelping box clean after the puppies are born, but you also need to take care with not disturbing the nursing bitch very much. When the mother goes to relieve herself, remove soiled towels and replace them with clean ones. Throw away soiled newspaper and replace it at the earliest opportunity. The first few days of the puppies’ lives are crucial for developing a bond with their mother. Try to leave the dogs alone as much as possible in the first few days. Limit your handling of the puppies in the first few days. Only handle the puppies when you need to clean out the box, which should happen from day 3 onward. Use your hand to feel the puppy’s body. A chilled puppy will feel cool or cool to the touch. It might also be non-responsive and very quiet. An overheated puppy will have red ears and tongue. It may also be unusually squirmy, which is the puppy’s best effort at getting away from any heat source.  A newborn's body temperature should be between 94-99 degrees Fahrenheit. This temperature will rise to 100 degrees Fahrenheit at 2 weeks of age. You don’t need to take the dog’s temperature with a thermometer, however. Check with your veterinarian if you have concerns or questions. If you are using a heat lamp, be sure to check the puppies regularly for flaky or red skin. Remove the lamp if this happens. Newborn puppies are not able to regulate their own body temperature, and they are prone to getting chilled. With mom not there you need to provide a heat source.

DBAN (Darik's Boot and Nuke) is a free hard driver eraser that will completely wipe the entire hard drive containing Windows 8. The hard drive will be empty and need to be either initialized by another operating system for storage or have an operating system installed on it.  This will delete everything on the drive, so make sure anything you need to save has been properly backed up. You will not be able to use data recovery software on the drive afterwards to retrieve anything you forgot. If Windows 8 is your only operating system, you won't be able to use the computer until you install a new operating system or reinstall Windows 8. Do not use this method if you have a solid state drive (SSD). If you are formatting an SSD, the best way is to simply reinstall your operating system on it. Do not use traditional data-wiping methods when trying to completely format an SSD. These can drastically reduce the lifespan and may not actually remove any data. DBAN is downloaded in ISO format, which is a disc image file. This allows you to burn it to a disc so that you can boot your computer from it. You can use a free burning tool like ImgBurn to burn the ISO to a disc. Click here for detailed instructions. You will need to open your BIO settings to change the boot order.

Damaged kidneys cannot process proteins normally, so give your kidneys time to rest by reducing your protein intake. You should eat foods that compromise of slow carbohydrates (where your glucose levels don't spike), low amounts of protein, fat, sodium and sugar. Here are some healthy options:   Slow carbohydrate foods: porridge oats, beans, brown rice, pasta, lentils, carrots, sweet potatoes, and asparagus.   Low protein food: bread and cereals, pasta, lettuce, celery, sprouts, cucumber,  parsley, tofu, fish and lean meats.   Low fat and low sodium foods: eat nothing fried (use olive oil if need be) and skip the salt. Avoid canned products such as soup, vegetable, and pasta sauces.   Low sugar foods: eggs, kidney beans, tofu, walnuts, cottage cheese, olives, spinach, turnips, asparagus, barley, Also, avoid binge eating instead eat small frequent meals. These will help your kidney not to overwork and strain itself from filtering all the waste products. . Getting abnormal levels of microalbumin on your test results is indicative of poor kidney function. The affected kidney can no longer filter ethanol from the alcohol efficiently, which increases the risk of prolonged high microalbumin levels. To combat this, cut out the alcohol and replace it with water, teas, and unsweetened juices. A glass of red wine once in a while is your best bet if you need to blend in at your next soiree. Anything other than that should be avoided. . A gradual quitting of smoking is advised rather than immediately stopping it. You may have withdrawal symptoms the same as if you were avoiding alcohol if you go cold turkey. However, regardless of the struggle, it is best if you can control yourself in avoiding these two vices. Chronic smokers have a greater risk in developing high blood pressure (smoking restricts your blood vessels, forcing your heart to pump harder, which stresses your kidneys). Nicotine from cigarettes can increase your blood pressure to 10mmHg. If you smoke all throughout the day your blood pressure will remain...

Dampen a cloth or towel with warm water. Sprinkle salt all over the cloth, or pour the salt directly onto the plastic. Use the cloth to rub the salt into the plastic, helping to remove the stain. Keep rubbing until you see the stain disappear. Rinse the plastic with clean water once you’re finished. Pour some baking soda into a small cup or similar container. Add water slowly, mixing it with the baking soda until it forms a paste. You can apply the baking soda paste to the plastic before letting it sit on the plastic for a few hours. Use a sponge or paper towel to rub the paste onto the stain before rinsing it off. Cut a fresh lemon in half using a knife and then start rubbing the lemon over the plastic so that the juice covers the stains. Bring the plastic outside and let it sit in the sun for a few hours to an entire day. The sunlight should help remove the yellow stains. Make sure you spread the lemon juice into the nooks and crannies of a stained piece of plastic, such as the yellowing marks on a cutting board. Some cleaning products that you would buy at a big box or home improvement store will work on yellow stains. Look for products targeting the type of yellow stain your plastic has to see if a certain chemical product might work. Follow the directions, often using a paper towel or cloth to rub the product onto the stains. A magic eraser can sometimes work on yellow stains, as do many cleaning powders. Use clean running water, and soap, if desired, to wash off the cleaning liquids and/or pastes. If the stain wasn't removed the first time, you can repeat the same process and scrub the plastic again.

Dampen your face with warm water. Pour some raw honey onto your fingers and gently massage the honey into your face, avoiding the areas around the eyes and mouth. Rinse the honey off using warm water and pat your face dry with a clean towel. For a deeper clean, allow the honey to sit on your face for 5 to 10 minutes.

If you have combination skin, use 1 part castor oil or hazelnut oil and 3 parts olive oil or sunflower oil. If you have dry skin, use pure olive oil, sunflower oil, or coconut oil. You may add a drop or two of castor oil or hazelnut oil. Apple cider vinegar is a natural antiseptic, which makes it a great cleanser and toner. Be sure to use unfiltered apple cider vinegar to get all of the benefits. Unfortunately, apple cider vinegar is acidic so you will need to dilute it with some water. Once you have diluted the vinegar, you can use it as a cleaner and toner by dampening a cotton ball with it and wiping your face with the cotton ball. Avoid sensitive areas such as the eyes, nose, and mouth. Here are the proportions you will need, based on your skin type:  If you have oily skin, use 1 part apple cider vinegar and 1 part water. If you have normal skin, use 1 part apple cider vinegar and 2 parts water. If you have sensitive skin, use 1 part apple cider vinegar and 4 parts water. Be sure to do a patch test on the inside of your elbow before using the vinegar-water mixture on your entire face. If you get an allergic reaction, do not use this face wash.

Dance videos will help you learn certain moves, as well as help with your technique. Go for instructional videos rather than just trying to copy moves you like. Instructional videos will show you how to do it, rather than you guessing at how it's done. You will need some space, as well as a smooth, solid floor. Remember, you will be making some noise, so you need a place where you won't bother people. The music should be appropriate to the genre, although most genres incorporate a wide range of music. Typically, though, you'd use something classical for ballet, while you can use a wide range of today's music for contemporary. Practicing helps solidify the skills in your brain, and your body will remember the moves you learn. Kids seem to learn skills faster because they aren't as afraid of looking dumb. If you mess up or have trouble getting a move, don't take it as a sign that you should stop dancing. It just means that you need more practice. Get up and try again. Don't try too much too soon, as you can injure yourself. When dancing, use clothes loose enough to move, but tight enough that you don't trip over yourself. Take off any jewelry so it doesn't go flying. Dance shoes are best for dancing, as they have smoother soles for turns. Also, tie up your hair so it doesn't get in the way. Not only will it help you practice, it will also help you see how a choreographer thinks, which is beneficial if you get into professional dancing with choreographers.  Videos can help you here, as can practicing in front of a mirror to see how your dancing looks. If you're just practicing the move without seeing how it looks, you may not be doing it correctly.

Dancers need to eat healthy foods to fuel their bodies. If you're dancing a great deal, you need to enough calories to fuel that dancing. However, if you're only dancing a little bit, you may need to cut back on calories to get the body you want for dancing. Be sure to include plenty of protein in your diet. In addition, feed your body fruits and vegetables so it has enough vitamins to be strong. To dance well, you need to build up your muscles and stamina. Activities like swimming, skiing, using an elliptical, and biking provide great overall workouts that will help you achieve a stronger body. Dancers need to be as flexible as possible to perform the moves they do. Try activities like yoga and pilates to increase your flexibility. As an added bonus, these activities will increase your core strength, making you a better dancer. Balance is also important to dancing, as you need good balance when doing fast-paced moves to remain upright. Yoga and pilates can help with balance, as can programs like tai chi. Tai chi also helps reduce stress and increase flexibility.

Danios are social animals and need space for themselves and their friends. The tank should come equipped with an exterior power filter, a bio-wheel, and an aquarium heater.  Because they are hearty, it is generally possible to keep danios without a heater. However, a heater is good for maintaining optimal conditions, especially if you plan to breed the danios.  You might be required to assemble the tank. If so, follow the instructions on the box. Local water companies will usually use some chemicals, like chlorine, that can be harmful to your fish. At the pet store purchase some testing kits to determine if the water is safe. You will probably want a sodium thiosulfate solution to treat chlorine and Amquel to treat chloramine. To get more information about the chemicals in your water supply, ask the local pet store owner or call the water utility directly. Fish like a layer of gravel at the bottom of the tank. Keep approximately 1/4th of an inch of gravel in the tank. Simple tap water is generally good for your fish, though you will need to treat it. Fill the water nearly, though not all the way to the top of the tank. It is necessary to keep a layer of oxygen at the top of the tank. In addition to adding sodium thiosulfate and Amquel to the tank, treat the tank for pH levels. There are a variety of acids and bases that can be purchased at the pet store to adjust the pH level in your tank. Test the level and adjust the pH until it is in the 6-8 range, preferably 7.

Dark washes and black jeans are the easiest to dress up, since the silhouettes are already sleek. Pair them with a fitted top or button-down and ankle boots for a sophisticated look. Single color tops in neutral tones, like dark gray, cream, or navy are the easiest to style. Try mixing things up with an interesting pattern or brightly-colored print for a more unique look. For an even more formal vibe, trade the ankle boots for knee high boots or patent leather loafers. A stylish, fitted jacket can take dark skinny jeans from low-key to work-ready. Try a classic cut, like a dark gray tweed blazer, or something quirkier, like a menswear-inspired tuxedo style. A long trench coat is also a good choice. The key to keeping the look dressy is choosing a jacket with a well-tailored, fitted style.  Keep your top crisp and basic – a button-down or tank top works best for this look.  For a feminine edge, go with a pair of strappy heels. For something more neutral, try sleek boots or oxfords. An eye-catching top can add drama and formality to your overall look. Opt for black jeans, and try a sequined or beaded shell top in your favorite style. If you want to tone down the sparkle a bit while still keeping the look formal, layer a dark blazer with minimal detail on top. If sparkly isn’t your thing, try an eye-catching print or colorful pattern instead. The pattern brings drama to the look, and the basic dark jeans keep things looking balanced. Dark leather boots, a matching belt, and a cashmere scarf can make even a faded pair of jeans look dressier. Add a nice briefcase or bag to take things up another notch. Limit jewelry to 1 or 2 tasteful pieces, like a nice watch or a strand of pearls, for a sophisticated edge. Choose neutral colored accessories in basic styles to keep the overall look polished.

Date implements Comparable<Date> and so two dates can be compared directly with the compareTo method. If the dates are for the same point in time, the method returns zero. If the date being compared is before the date argument, a value less than zero is returned. If the date being compared is after the date argument, a value greater than zero is returned. If the dates are equal, a value of 0 is returned. You will need to create each date object before you can start comparing them. One way to do this is to use the SimpleDateFormat class. It allows for easy entry of date values into date objects.   SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd"); //For declaring values in new date objects. use same date format when creating dates Date date1 = sdf.parse("1995-02-23"); //date1 is February 23, 1995 Date date2 = sdf.parse("2001-10-31"); //date2 is October 31, 2001 Date date3 = sdf.parse("1995-02-23"); //date3 is February 23, 1995 The code below will show you each case -- less than, equal, and greater than.   date1.compareTo(date2); //date1 < date2, returns less than 0 date2.compareTo(date1); //date2 > date1, returns greater than 0 date1.compareTo(date3); //date1 = date3, so will print 0 to console

Dead batteries are by far the most common reason a controller turns off. Push the small button on the top of the battery pack to remove it and slide out the batteries. Use fresh AA batteries, and never mix and match old batteries and new batteries. Most rechargeable battery packs either plug into the Xbox with a USB cable or come with a small charging station. Plug in your battery pack and wait 1-3 hours before trying the controller again.  If you are using the cable chargers, make sure you turn your Xbox on first. When attached with the charging cable you may keep playing your Xbox 360. If the pack is charging correctly then the cable or docking station light will glow red. When it turns green the pack is fully charged. If you still cannot get your controller to stay on, make sure that the metal contacts at the bottom are not dirty or rusted. If they are, you'll need to clean them or buy a new battery pack. To clean the contacts use several dry cotton swabs to lightly scrub away dirt and dust. If you controller disconnects every time it rumbles or shakes, your battery pack may be loose. While the easiest way to fix this is to buy a new one, you can also use tape the secure it tightly to the back of your controller. Taping up your battery pack is usually a temporary solution, and makes it difficult to replace dead batteries.

Dealerships make money by offering higher interest loans than other financial institutions. Because of that, you should know ahead of time how much you are willing to spend, and stick to that. Generally, if you have a credit score above 650, you should be able to get financing through a bank or credit union for a much better interest rate than at a dealership. Most analysts recommend putting at least 20% down on your car, although the average down payment in recent years has been only 12%. The danger of putting less than 20% down is that your car may lose resale value faster than you pay off your loan, leaving you “upside down” or unable to pay off your loan by selling the car.  Unless you have practice investing, it is generally smarter to pay for as much of your car as possible up front rather than investing in savings and using the earnings to make monthly car payments. The interest cost on the car loan is generally higher than you can expect to earn on a short-term investments. However, the new zero interest loans might make sense if the price of the car is as low as it would be paying cash. If you do decide to pay less of a down payment than you can afford, paying at least 20% of the car's cost as a down payment will increase the chances that your car retains its value above the amount outstanding in your loan. Keep in mind that your initial payment may include a downpayment on the purchase price as well as various fees from the dealer or licensing authority. How much can you afford to spend on your car payment each month? And for how long? Consider the type of car you will be buying and how long you will drive it as well, when thinking about the life of your loan. Use online resources to look at the cars for sale in your area. Use Kelly Blue Book or Edmunds to find the fair value of the car before going to the dealership. Make a list of a few cars at different dealerships you would be interested in.  If you want to trade in your current car, look at the fair value of it using one of the same tools. Most...

Decide how many people you want to invite. Make the evening feel special by sending out invitations by post or email. Include details about the activities you have planned and tell them if it will be a slumber party. Encourage your friends to wear comfortable clothing. Ask your friends to bring a towel and open-toed shoes. Pick up indulgent snacks, like chocolate covered strawberries and potato chips. Buy beverages that will help you relax, for example wine, cocktails (or mocktails if you don’t drink alcohol), tea, or hot chocolate. For a spa feel, have lots of sparkling or spring water with cut-up citrus slices and pretty glasses.  Make the food and drinks available throughout the evening. Replenish snacks and drinks when they are running low. Consider ending the evening by making chocolate fondue. Some nice things to dip include marshmallows, strawberries, mango, dried fruits, and pieces of pound cake. For mani-pedis, buy fresh nail polishes, pumice stones, polish remover, lotions, foot soaks, and nail files. Pick up some cucumbers for putting over your eyes, headbands, facial masks, toner, and moisturizer for facials. Also buy some non-oily lotion for massages, and candles and an aromatherapy oil or lotion for meditation. Consider getting or making some deep conditioner to do scalp and hair conditioning treatments. Prepare for different pampering activities in your bathroom, kitchen, and main room. Gather supplies for each station and put them together. Set out towels for mani-pedis, facials, and hair conditioning. Include bowls for soaking hands and feet during mani-pedis.

Decide how much you are going to spend on the trip in total, including transportation, accommodations, and food. You can then use your budget to determine your itinerary, as some destinations are cheaper than others. You can also use your budget to help you determine how long you will travel and what time of year.  For example, you may budget $4,000 USD for the trip total. This means you may be able to spend $1,000-$1,500 USD on your flights and $2,000 USD on accommodations. This leaves you with around $1,000 USD to spend on food. You may then decide to travel for about 10 days, allowing you to spend $100 a day on food and excursions. Try to set aside a few hundred dollars for emergencies as part of your budget. Figure out how long your trip to Europe will be, factoring in your availability and your budget. If you want to try to save money, you may plan to travel during the low season, November to Easter, or during the shoulder season, September to early November and Easter to early June. High season for European travel is during the summer months, late June-August. You may avoid traveling these months if you want to save money and stay away from large crowds. You may travel during the spring or summer if you prefer to travel through Europe when it is warmer. Or you may decide to travel in the fall if you like temperate weather and want to see the scenery change colors. You can also plan your dates around a holiday or special event, such as Christmas or Easter. If you want to do a tour of the major countries in Europe, you may choose major cities in each country, such as Paris in France or Rome in Italy. Keep in mind major cities can be more expensive to visit, so you may factor in your budget as well.  Come up with a list of major cities and countries that are close to each other so it is easier for you to visit each one. Look for major cities that are connected by rail or where you can fly into cheaply. This will save you time and money on travel.  Focus on a particular part of Europe and travel through...

Decide how much you can afford to spend on this trip by creating a travel budget. That will likely determine whether you drive somewhere a few hours away or hop on a flight to another country. Even if you don't own a car, renting one for a few days may be cheaper than round-trip flights for two people, especially if you select a fuel-efficient vehicle. Visit websites like Kayak, Expedia, or Priceline to compare flight and rental car costs. If you're planning a weekend getaway, it's best to choose someplace you could get to within a few hours. Otherwise you'll spend too much of your time traveling rather than enjoying your destination. Start by searching online for destinations in your region. Type things like “romantic getaways near Chicago” or “romantic destinations within 3 hours of me” into a search engine. It may help to determine what feature you want most from your trip. If you want to relax on a beach, but don't live near the ocean, research nearby lakes that offer beach access. If you want to go hiking, look for destinations near mountains or national parks. Tropical destinations don't have to be out of reach, even if you're on a budget. Many travel websites offer deals on flight and hotel packages, and some packages even include meals and activities. Just be sure to read the fine print with these deals to be sure you know what's included and whether they're refundable if your plans change. Search websites like Orbitz, Hotwire, or Travelocity for romantic getaway packages. Compare multiple travel sites against each other since they may offer different prices, and consider setting up fare alerts to get an email when flights to a specific location drop in price. Cruises offer a convenient all-in-one getaway, with travel, accommodations, and meals often included in the price. And they're available all over the world, from tropical destinations in the Caribbean Sea to mountainous regions in Alaska. Cruises can be expensive, especially if you have to travel just to get to the port-of-call, but many cruise...

Decide if you wish to brew a normal batch or a strong mixture, as this will determine how much water you will need to use later. Consume, save, or discard any coffee that has been mixed with sugar and/or cream. Combine about 1/2 cup (120 ml) of water more than coffee as a standard mixture.  For example, if you have 1 cup (240 ml) of leftover coffee, mix it with 1 1/2 cups (350 ml) of water. The amount of water can be more or less, depending how strong the original coffee is.  Select one day out of the week to apply the diluted coffee on the plants. Coffee can be quite acidic, so you will only need to use it sparingly versus natural water. Start out small. It is better to give just a little and work out what your plants respond to than to overdo it and cause the plant to react poorly. You can slightly increase the dosage until you consider it is sufficient.

Decide on a closing based on how formal or informal your letter is. Consider the content and recipient as well when choosing a closing. You could write “kind regards” for a casual business letter, and “yours,” for an informal letter to someone close to you.  For example, close with “sincerely” in a business letter. You can close with “love” in a letter to a family member, partner, or friend. Typically, a comma is the best choice for punctuation after your closing. In some cases, however, you can use an exclamation point if the content of your letter and closing calls for it. For example, “Sincerely” is best paired with a comma. You can write “best wishes” or “thank you” with an exclamation point to show your enthusiasm. Use a comma for all formal letters. Only use an exclamation point for informal letters to friends or family members. For a typed business or professional letter, skip a few lines after your closing. After skipping 3 or 4 lines, type your full name. The blank space left between the closing and typed signature is left for your written signature once the letter has been printed out. If your letter is informal, you can sign your name directly after the closing. You can choose to write only your first name if the person is a close friend, partner, or family member. If the letter is formal, below the closing and above your typed name.

Decide on the boundaries that you want to have with colleagues in terms of both friendships and potential romantic relationships. You should consider whether or not you would ever date someone from work. If you know your boundary on this issue, you will be prepared if and when a romantic relationship ever presents itself as a possibility. Further, you should consider the level of intimacy and friendship you are comfortable having with co-workers such as, for instance, whether you want to share your cell phone number or social media pages with colleagues.  If you do not want to share your personal cell phone number, you could tell your colleagues to contact you by other means such as email or your work phone. If you do not want to talk about personal relationships or beliefs with colleagues and one of your colleagues asks about your private life, you could say: “I don’t talk about my personal life at work. No offense, but I prefer to talk about work related matters or the news.” If you do not want to date anybody from work and one of your colleagues asks you out, you could try saying: “Sorry, that’s very sweet but I have a strict no dating policy with people from work. I find this works best for me. Try somewhere else.” If you have a colleague who offers excessively frank or negatively worded criticism, try not to take it too personally. You have the right to protect yourself from negative energy and language in the workplace. First, remind yourself that you don’t have to take the burden of other people’s emotional baggage, since it is not in your job description. Second, you can follow up with someone to resolve the issue more directly, such as by talking to the human relations department or a superior. Tell a superior or human relations manager about your experience: “A colleague of mine is being really overbearing and negative recently. They took me aside after our last meeting and told me that all of my contributions were horrible and that I should go back to my old job. Their criticisms are not...

Decide what kind of resources would be most appropriate for your project. For a historical project for instance, books and scholarly articles are most appropriate. You might also look into newspaper articles, which give you a sense of what was going on at the time, as well as personal correspondence from famous people. If you're doing an in-depth college project, you'll need more sources than if you're doing a basic junior high project. For a college project, you may need eight to ten sources or more, while for a junior high project, you may only need one or two books. Your librarian can guide you to the best databases for your materials. For instance, you can use the main book catalog to find books. However, you might need to use article databases to find scholarly articles, which is a different screen altogether.  When using an article database, narrow the search engine to only relevant databases. For instance, platforms such as EBSCOhost carry a wide range of smaller databases, and you can narrow your search down to one relevant to your topic, such as a database focused on history.  You can also research the archives of particular newspapers. While some newspapers offer free access to their archives, others might require you to pay. Once you've gathered a bunch of materials together, you need to sort through them to decide what's actually relevant. Sometimes an article or book that sounds relevant may not be as helpful as you thought. Make notes related to your topic. Be as detailed as you can, but try to put it in your own words as you write it down. As you make notes, make sure you are including the biographical information about the book.  You'll need the author's full name, the title of the book, the publisher, the edition, the date it was published, the city it was published in, the title and author of individual articles in the book if it has them, and the page number where you found the information. For articles, you'll need the author's full name, the title of the article and the journal, the...

Deep breathing can be an effective way to center and calm yourself. This exercise helps you to bring on your body's natural relaxation response. You can complete this exercise sitting, standing, or lying down.  Start by breathing naturally. Then, inhale air deeply through your nose for 4 counts. Hold the breath for about 2 counts. Then, release the air from your mouth for 4 counts. Repeat this exercise for several minutes to promote calm.  You can also add a mantra to your breathing activity. Try thinking to yourself something like "I am the picture of calm" over and over again as you breathe. Mindful meditation can help you calm your mind and counteract over-excitement. You may think meditation sounds boring or that it will be impossible to sit still with all your excitement. Meditation can be a little challenging for beginners, but the benefits are widespread. Practicing this activity can reduce your stress, enhance your ability to focus, improve your mindfulness in daily activities, and minimize mental chatter that keeps you from being productive.  Sit comfortably in a chair or on a cushion. Breathe slowly and deeply. Orient yourself to the present moment by focusing your attention on different sensations in the environment around you.  As you breathe, consider the sounds you hear, how your body feels on the chair, or focus a space on the wall ahead of you. As your attention wanders, simply redirect it to your focus point. Visualization requires that you focus your attention on a relaxing place to bring about calm. Like many of these calming techniques, the good thing about visualization is that its benefits don't stop at relaxation. This mental practice can also improve your sense of motivation, enhance physical performance, boost self-confidence, and gear your brain up for success. Here's how to do it:  Sit comfortably in a quiet room. Inhale and exhale deeply. Close your eyes and think of a calming place. This can be a real place or an imaginary place like an exotic beach or a peaceful brook. Activate...

Dehydration can take a toll on the voice.  Lack of hydration can dry out the larynx, vocal folds and mucous membranes in your throat.    You can achieve this by not drinking water or even replacing water with beverages which cause dehydration like alcohol or coffee. Exercise and release water from your body by sweating. Severe dehydration can lead to confusion, headache, fever, fainting or even death.  Don't get carried away. Heartburn, or acid from your stomach reaching up into your throat, will cause irritation in the tissue.  Spicy foods can cause this reflux, which may also make you feel like you need to cough, further irritating the tissue around your larynx and effecting your voice.  This may not be as effective for people who regularly eat spicy foods. Try a cuisine your body is unfamiliar with.  Some options may be Indian, Ethiopian or Chinese food.  Many restaurants with spicy food will note the spice level on the menu.  Opt for the dish with the hottest spice. Avoid acid reflux which can create ulcers and abdominal pain.  This can be treated with acid blockers. You can practice changing the tone of your speech without injuring your throat, but changing the resonance of your voice.  Say "uhhhh" and see where it is currently resonating.  If the vibration is coming from your head or nose, keep moving it downward to get it in your chest. Gently hold your Adam's apple, the bump in in the front and center of your throat, which moves when you swallow.  Try moving it downward a quarter of an inch while you speak. Try creating "vocal fry" by making your voice as low as possible and using very little air to push the sound out.  This should cause a gravely sound as your vocal folds audibly vibrate.

Dendrobium orchids do not produce extensive root systems so they thrive in smaller spaces. Choose a pot that extends no more than 1 inch (2.5 cm) beyond your plant's root mass. Do not plant this flower in a large planter or directly in the ground as it prefers the security of a tighter space. The dendrobium orchid does not thrive or grow in ordinary soil. Purchase a potting mixture that is specially formulated for orchids from a gardening store or online. Alternatively, choose your own soilless potting medium like fir bark, coconut husks, or moss. Many pre-made potting mixes for orchids contain horticultural charcoal. Dendrobium orchids do best in an environment that is between 65–75 °F (18–24 °C). At night, they can tolerate a temperature drop to 55–60 °F (13–16 °C)  It is best to keep them indoors where the temperature can be adjusted or monitored, especially in extreme seasons like summer and winter.  If you do put the plant outdoors during moderately warm weather, keep it out of direct sunlight and bring it indoors when temperatures drop at night. Note that temperatures on your window sills or near windows may be warmer or colder than the rest of your home. Proper air circulation around plants can prevent problems like fungus and insect infestations. Place your orchid in a clear space with nothing around its immediate perimeter. Leave at least 5 inches (13 cm) of empty space around it to let it get sufficient air.  Keep a small fan near the plant to help improve air circulation when things get stuffy. When you water, make sure there is no standing water left on the surface of the soil. Orchids need plenty of light to thrive. Place them near a window with partial shade so they don't get direct sun, which can be harmful. If natural light is not an option, place your orchid under grow lights for 14-16 hours during the day to simulate sunlight.  When setting up your grow lights, use 1 warm white tube and 1 cool white tube placed under a reflector. Grow lights can be purchased at hardware stores or online....

Density measures how tightly the matter in an object is packed together. Each material has its own density, which you can look up online or in a textbook. The scientific unit of density is kilograms per cubic meter (kg/m3), but you can use grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm3) for smaller objects.  Use this formula to convert between these units: 1,000 kg/m3 = 1 g/cm3  The density of liquids is often measured in kilograms per liter (kg/L) or grams per milliliter (g/mL) instead. These units are equivalent: 1 kg/L = 1 g/mL.  Example: Diamond has a density of 3.52 g/cm3. . The volume is the amount of space the object occupies. Measure the volume of solids in cubic meters (m3) or cubic centimeters (cm3), and the volume of liquids in liters (L) or milliliters (mL). The formula for volume depends on the shape of the object. Refer to this article for common shapes.  Use the same unit that appears as part of your density measurement.  Example: Since we measured the density of diamond in g/cm3, we should measure our diamond's volume in cm3. Let's say our diamond's volume is 5,000 cm3. Multiply your two numbers together, and you'll know the mass of your object. Keep track of the units as you do this, and you'll see that you end up with units of mass (kilograms or grams).  Example: We have a diamond with volume 5,000 cm3 and density 3.52 g/cm3. To find the diamond's mass, multiply 5,000 cm3 x 3.52 g/cm3 = 17,600 grams.

Depending on how old your baby is, she needs a different amount of sleep. If she is 5 or under, the recommended daily sleep amounts time by age are:  Infants 0 – 2 months need 10.5 – 18 hours every day. Babies 2 – 12 months need 14 – 15 hours every day. Set a consistent bedtime that incorporates a routine. This can help her fall asleep without nursing in addition to relaxing her and regulate her sleep cycle.  Consider naps, feedings, and your baby’s age when fixing her bedtime. Don't worry about setting bedtimes during the first two months. Set a reasonable bedtime for you and your baby. You may want some “me time” after putting your baby down for the night.  You may need to tweak the schedule occasionally to accommodate activities or other factors like illness. Most babies require some time to shift into bedtime mode. Promoting relaxation through rituals and environment can help your baby relax and get to sleep, especially without nursing or feeding.  Begin winding down at least two hours before your baby’s bedtime. Dampen any loud noises.  Dim the lights around the house and especially in your baby’s room. This lets her know that it’s time to sleep.  Speak to your baby and rub her back to relax and reassure her if she is fussy. Follow a nightly bedtime ritual that does not include nursing. Taking a bath, reading a story, singing, or listening to soothing music can cue and your baby to sleep without the aid of nursing.  Read or sing to your baby to help relax him.  Give him a warm bath and massage to enhance relaxation. Create a room for your baby that promotes relaxation and sleep. Setting an optimal temperature, dampening noise, and shutting out light can help fall and stay asleep.  Set the room temperature between 65 and 75°F (18.3 to 23.8°C).  Remove anything from your baby’s room that may stimulate her, such as electronics.  Control light with soft bulbs and curtains or blinds. Using a night light in a non-stimulating color like red can help you find her or even reassure her.  Use a white noise machine...

Depending on personal preference and what’s available, this might mean an e-reader, a laptop, a smartphone, or a tablet. Select a device that you can read with ease (avoid squinting or straining to read). If you’d like to hold the device as you read in bed, choose a device that’s relatively light and that you can hold with ease. Some digital devices suitable for reading come with a stand or you are able to purchase one separately, to allow for hands-free reading. Avoid reading on a digital device before your bedtime, or if you’re reading late at night. The bright blue light from a digital screen can delay or suppress the release of melatonin, the hormone that regulates your circadian clock and helps you to feel sleepy. It is a good idea to turn down the level of brightness of the reading screen and to stop reading on the device about 2 hours before your intended bedtime. Many devices have a built-in setting that allows you to turn off the disruptive blue light. Look through your device’s settings, and turn the blue-light blocker on if you’re reading after it’s dark outside. With this setting turned on, you can read late without disrupting your sleep pattern. If your smartphone or tablet doesn’t have a function to turn off the blue light, search the app store for an app that performs this function. Just search for “blue light” and look through the results.

Depending on the area you'd like to gain self-confidence, look for resources you may need. Check to see if you will need formal training or education to meet your goals. After all, it's difficult to have the self-confidence to fly an airplane if you haven’t taken a lesson or sat in the pilot’s seat. If you take a formal course, it can also provide lots of opportunities for practice, which is another great way to gain confidence. Consider finding a mentor, taking a class, or reading up on a subject you need to learn about. This will give you the tools you need to succeed. Gaining confidence requires staying focused and having a positive attitude. If you are constantly being criticized or if your efforts go unnoticed, it will be easy to become discouraged. Take any negative doubts you may have and turn them into positive statements or challenges. Create rituals for yourself to develop positive self-talk or affirmations.  For example, every morning when you brush your teeth, look at yourself in the mirror, smile and say, “I am going to give it my best today, and I deserve to have self-confidence!” Do things you truly enjoy. Listen to music, visit an art gallery, play basketball with some friends. Find what you love to do and make sure you're frequently doing it. This will prevent those negative doubts from returning. A negative environment is a confidence killer. Surround yourself with people who support your efforts. This way, you'll be free to practice confident skills without being judged by those around you. Let your support network know that you're trying to gain confidence. If you're struggling, don't hesitate to ask a friend or family for help or support. Knowing that you have positive traits and qualities is a good thing, but without emphasizing and focusing on them every day, you will soon slip back into the habit of self-doubt and self-criticism. Keep your list of strengths in an easy to access location so you can look at it often. Recite a mantra or affirmation that reminds you of your positive traits...

Depending on the bird’s age, it may or may not need your help. Juvenile birds fall into 3 categories: hatchlings, nestlings, and fledglings. Hatchlings and nestlings are baby birds and have no visible feathers on their wings or body. Neither hatchlings nor nestlings will survive for long out of the nest. Fledglings, on the other hand, have feathers and can survive on their own. It’s very common for nestlings to be found hopping on the ground as they’re just learning to fly and forage for food. Although it’s normal to feel worried for a fledgling hopping about on the ground, the fledgling might not actually need any help at all. Position yourself 20–30 feet (6.1–9.1 m) away from the fledgling and watch the nearby treetops. Sooner or later, 1 of its parents should swoop down with some food. You may have to wait awhile. In some cases, parent birds may only feed their fledglings once every 4 hours. If the parents are not feeding the fledgling, try moving a little farther off. The adult birds may not approach if you’re too close. As long as the parents are observing and frequently feeding the young fledgling, it’s being well taken care of and needs no help from you. For many species of birds, fledglings can spend as long as 1–2 weeks on the ground as they learn to fly. To the casual observer, it can appear as though a fledgling is in trouble even when it’s not. The best thing you can do is leave the healthy fledgling alone. If you’re concerned about the fledgling’s safety and health, check on it every 1–2 days to make sure it’s still alive and flapping. Even if you see a nest in a nearby tree, do not put the fledgling into it. It’s more than likely that the young bird will just jump back out of the nest. Or, if the fledgling’s parents are in the nest, they may kick it back out a second time! Furthermore, the next may not even belong to the fledgling’s family or may have been constructed by a different species of bird altogether. Although the young bird may appear small and hungry, resist the temptation to care for...

Depending on the reason for your angiogram, you may need to make certain lifestyle changes to get and stay healthy. Talk to your doctor about specific changes that you should make. Often, people have angiograms because of coronary artery disease (CAD). If this is the reason for your angiogram, talk with your doctor about the lifestyle changes you should to make. In general, these lifestyle changes include:  Quitting smoking (if you are a smoker) Getting regular exercise Losing weight (if you are overweight) Reducing stress Your doctor may prescribe blood thinners or even just recommend that you take a small dose of aspirin every day. Whatever your doctor has prescribed or recommended, make sure that you understand the dosage instructions and contact your doctor if you have any concerns or questions about the medication. Do not stop taking your medication without consulting your doctor first. These can help you learn how to develop an exercise program, follow a heart healthy diet, reduce stress, and even help you to quit smoking. Your insurance will most likely cover the cost of a cardiac rehab program. Ask your doctor for recommendations on a cardiac rehab program in your area.

Depending on the scope of your project, your art needs can vary significantly. Some games are built using only simple shapes and colors, while other games feature complex worlds created by vast teams of artists and sound designers. Be realistic with your goals for the assets in your game, and hire accordingly.  Most independent games are created by small teams, oftentimes one person. If you are doing the entire project yourself, expect it to take a significant amount of time, especially if you are intending to create all of the assets yourself. There are a variety of free-to-use assets available online through development communities. Always make sure that anything you use does not violate someone's copyright. In order to start getting a feel for the visual aesthetic of the game, you will need to begin implementing art into the prototype, and then start expanding that prototype into the game proper.  There are a variety of styles that you can use. Pixel art (intentionally retro) is one of the most common styles employed by independent developers. This is because pixel art is typically the fastest and least-expensive art to produce that still results in a “good looking” game.  If you have more time and manpower, you can consider using 3D art. Basic 3D modeling is possible with a one-man team, but more complex details will take significantly more time. 3D models need textures on top of the model. Once you have some art to use, you can start constructing the game itself. Depending on the style of game you are making, you may need to create levels or playing areas. If you are making a puzzle game, then you can start designing your puzzles. Depending on your art style, there are different programs you can use to create your art assets. Some of the more popular programs include:  Blender – This open-source program is one of the most popular 3D modeling solutions around. There are endless tutorials available online that can show you how to get up and running quickly.  Photoshop – This program is essential in the...

Depending on the size of your knot, you may have to tie a knot twice to make it big enough so the crimping bead will not slide through it. You don't need any kind of special knot for this. Just a simple overhand knot will do. Grab a crimp bead and slide it down the length of the jewelry wire until you reach the knot, which is about 3 inches (7.6 cm) from the end. Take a jump ring and slide it down the entire length of the necklace until you reach the crimp bead. Take the end of the wire and pass over the top of the jump ring, and thread the wire through the crimp bead. Pull it taut so that the crimp bead and the jump ring are close together. Hold the crimp bead and the jump ring in place with one hand. Use the crimping pliers to flatten the crimping bead. The crimping bead works as a jewelry stopper, so the jump ring will not slide off the jewelry. This gives your necklace a professional and streamlined look.

Depending on the state of your counter top, you may only need to clean your counter top with warm water and a mild soap to remove any dirt, grime, or buildup from it. This will allow  you the clearest view of the scratch so you can decide whether or not this is a DIY fix or something requiring a professional.  You'll want to remove any buildup has occurred inside the scratch. To do so, you may have to allow your counter top to soak in a mild cleaner before wiping the cleaner away. Stubborn grime that is firmly lodged in your scratch can be scraped out with a small tool or cleaning implement, like a toothpick or a cotton swab. Use cleaner and your tool to completely cleanse the scratch of buildup. For especially greasy counter tops, you may have to resort to more extreme measures. You can use acetone on your granite to ensure a good degreasing. Make sure there is good ventilation in the room before applying your acetone to prevent the harmful fumes from building up. The color of your granite can have an impact on the visibility of scratches; scratches in light colors will likely be more apparent than those in darker colors. You may want a ruler or a tape measure on hand so you can more precisely evaluate the size and depth of your scratch.  If the scratch you are dealing with appears to be quite small, apply some water to it. If the water makes your scratch disappear, it's highly likely you can remedy this scratch on your own. Scratches that are larger than ½ inch (1.25 cm) long and 0.08 inch (2 mm) deep are considered to be serious blemishes in your stone. It's unlikely you will be able to remove these yourself. The dealer or contractor who sold and/or installed your granite counter tops may also do restoration and repair work. You might see if he can assist your in your granite repair or recommend someone who is qualified to do the same. Deep scratches will need to be ground down with diamond pads until the top layer of the granite with the scratch in it is removed. Then the surface must be repolished...

Depending on the surface you're working on, you can use a stiff bristled or soft bristled brush. An old toothbrush will work in a pinch. Loosen any dried crust from the upholstery and brush it off using a small brush or vacuum cleaner. You can use any solution that is safe for the surface you are cleaning. A commercial carpet cleaner, leather cleaner, or upholstery cleaner will work; you can even use a laundry stain remover for surfaces like cloth or carpet. You can make your own solution.  If you are cleaning leather upholstery, make a paste by mixing 3 parts baking soda to one part warm (but not hot) water. If you are cleaning vinyl, cloth, plastic, or carpeting, mix together eight parts warm (but not hot) water with one part white vinegar. Add a half teaspoon (2.5 mL) dishwashing liquid and mix well. For set-in stains, you should let the solution sit until it dries, then re-wet the stain with the solution a second time and let it sit for a few more minutes before scrubbing. This ensures that the solution penetrates through the stain so that when you scrub it you can remove all of the dried vomit. To penetrate the dried stain, use the hardest brush you can safely use on the material with the stain. Some surfaces like vinyl or leather will be scratched by a hard bristled brush, so you'll need to use a sponge or soft-bristled brush. For surfaces like carpeting or cloth upholstery, use the firmest brush that will not damage the surface. You don't want to saturate the surface of your car seat or carpet, but you need to use enough water to remove the cleaning solution. Try dipping a wash rag in clean water, blotting it on the solution, then wringing it out. Repeat this process until you've soaked up all the cleaning solution, and the stain should come up with it. If all else fails, you may need to resort to professional-grade steam cleaning. You can rent a carpet cleaner from a big box home store, and these can be used for carpet or cloth upholstery in your car. Don't use a steam cleaner for stains on leather,...

Depending on the type of appointment your cat had, or if you are returning to the vet after leaving him there for surgery or observation, taking your cat home can create another anxious experience for him. Make sure the carrier is clean before leaving. Clean it, if necessary, replacing the newspaper and towels. Give your cat a treat for being a good patient and shower her with affection before placing her back into the carrier. Before leaving the office, be sure to confirm when she might need to return for a checkup or follow-up appointment. Cover the carrier again with the large towel, if your cat seems nervous. Gently set the carrier in place. If returning in a car, buckle up the carrier again. Your cat will be ready to feel at home again.  Once home, set the carrier down and gently open the door. Do not force your cat out; she will exit on her own when she is ready. Clean and dry the carrier thoroughly and store it in a place where it will not get damaged (or return to the person from whom it was borrowed). Many carriers can be used for plane travel, running errands, and when visiting friends or family.  Clean, dry towels and newspapers can be stored in the carrier for later use. Regular use of the carrier will keep your cat feeling comfortable with it.

Depending on your age and gender, you will need to ensure you are getting a certain amount of iodine each day.  If you are 0-6 months: you need 110 micrograms per day (mcg/day) of iodine. If you are 7-12 months: 130 mcg/day. If you are 1-3 years old: 90 mcg/day. If you are 4-8 years old: 90 mcg/day. If you are 9-13 years old: 120 mcg/day. If you are male and 14 and older: 150 mcg/day. If you are female and 14 and older: 150 mcg/day. Women who are pregnant or breast feeding need higher amounts of iodine. Speak to your doctor about exactly how much iodine you should be getting every day based on your age, gender, and other factors, such as pregnancy. Most table salts are fortified with iodine. Unless you are on a low-sodium diet, adding table salt to your meals every day is an effective way to add iodine to your diet. Most adults can get 100% of their daily intake of iodine by adding a total of just over 1/2 teaspoon of iodized table salt (approximately 3g) to their meals, or by eating foods that contain iodized salt, such as foods in restaurants, processed foods, bread, and dairy products.  You can add iodized salt when you cook and bake. For example, if a recipe calls for salt, use iodized table salt. Iodized table salt does not taste any different from normal table salt. You can also replace your salt shaker with iodized table salt. That way, when you reach for salt during a meal, you are also adding iodine to your dish. A diet with too much salt could lead to the same symptoms as iodine deficiency, including goiter and hyperthyroidism. Too much salt can also put you at risk of hypertension, which is a huge problem in the United States. Dairy products like milk, yogurt, and cheese are all good sources of iodine. Incorporate a variety of dairy products into your diet, as well as eggs.  Start your morning with a bowl of yogurt. A single cup of plain, low-fat yogurt can provide up to 50% of your daily recommended iodine intake. Add fresh fruit, granola, and honey for flavor and more essential nutrients.  Drink...

Depending on your crush’s personality, they may show signs of nervousness or extra energy when you’re around them. Signs of nerves mean that they want to make a good impression on you and are worried about saying or doing the wrong thing, while being hyper points to their excitement to be hanging out with you.  For example, if your crush gets flustered when talking or fidgets a little more than usual, they’re likely interested in you. See if your crush is sweating or blushing for other signs they may be a little nervous around you. This will be different depending on your crush’s personality. If they’re shy, they may have a hard time keeping eye contact with you and will look away often. If they’re not shy, your crush will maintain strong eye contact if they really like you.  Watch your crush’s pupils when they’re looking at you—if they dilate, it’s a sign that they like you. Eye contact between two people depends a lot on each person's personality, so be aware that this isn't a sure-fire way to determine if your crush likes you back. If your crush likes you back, they’ll try to steal glimpses of you whenever possible. This is a common way to show affection. If your crush gives you a playful push or light pat, it’s likely that they’re trying to signal that they like you.  For example, if you’re hanging out with your crush and they bump hips with you playfully or lightly squeeze your shoulder, they might have feelings for you. Be aware that this could just be how your crush acts around people normally. When people are attracted to one another, they mimic each other’s body language and stand facing each other. The next time you’re talking to your crush, glance at their shoes to see which direction their feet are facing. While this may mean they like you, it also might just be the way they're standing, so try not to read too much into it. If your crush moves their chair so that it’s pointed towards you, this is also a good sign. When we’re interested in someone, our body naturally leans in towards them to be...
