Read the box, and mix a small amount based on the particular ratios of bleach and activator product. Apply the bleach to a 1 in × 1 in (2.5 cm × 2.5 cm) section of your body, such as your inner arm. After about 7-10 minutes, remove the product with water. If there is no redness or irritation after 24 hours, you can use the bleach kit safely. If you notice any redness or irritation after using the bleach, do not use this to bleach your body hair. If the reaction does not go away within 1-2 days, see your doctor. Before you apply the bleach, rub the area with soap and rinse it thoroughly using cool or warm water from your faucet. It is helpful to cleanse the area before you bleach it to remove any natural oils, sweat, or debris. Read over your instructions to ensure you mix the products correctly. Typically, there is a powder bleach container, a jar or cream activator, and a mixing tool in at-home bleach kits. Use the included mixing tool to scoop up the products, and put them in a small dish. Most kits call for 1 spatula of powder bleach and 2 scoops of cream activator.  If you mix the bleach incorrectly, you may wind up damaging your skin. As you do this, be careful not to get the bleach on your skin. If you do, rinse it off completely. Once your bleach is mixed up, use the mixing tool to scoop up the product, and spread it across the area you want to bleach. You can bleach your arms, legs, or upper lip, for instance. Ensure all of your hairs are fully covered so they lighten evenly.  As you spread the bleach, avoid rubbing it back and forth into your skin. If you notice any empty spots after you first apply the bleach, go back in and fill them in with more product. Set a timer for 5-10 minutes, as directed in your particular instructions. Some kits require more or less time to process the bleach. If your hair is light brown or blonde, you may not need quite as much time to process the hair. If your hair is very dark, you may need the full processing time. If you leave the bleach on for longer than 10...

Read the directions for your particular stain remover, but typically, you need to start with dry fabric. The stain remover will be more effective if it's not diluted.  One popular ink remover is Amodex. Some stain removers will need time to sit in, while others need to be washed out right away. Read the directions that come with your particular product and follow them carefully. Pour a little of the stain remover on the area. Rub it in thoroughly with the brush or part of a washcloth, using a circular motion. Keep rubbing it in until you see the ink start to disappear. Apply more stain remover as needed. Put the garment in the washer by itself or with another treated item. Run a small load with detergent. Once it's done, check to see if the stain is gone. If it is, put the item in the dryer on the appropriate setting for the fabric.

Read the manufacturer's instructions to familiarize yourself with your specific dip test kit. The directions will describe how long to dip your test strip and how to interpret your results. When in doubt, defer to the manufacturer's instructions over these directions, which are suited to most dip tests but not all. Purchase some disposable cups or another clean, dry container to collect your urine. It's best to catch your urine midstream if possible. Do this by beginning to urinate and then catching the urine in the cup after a second or so has passed. Place your cup of urine on a flat surface. Remove the test strip from its foil packaging. Orient yourself with the test strip. One end will have a handle (usually a solid color) and the other end—for dipping—will have a maximum level line. Exceeding the maximum level line when you dip your strip in the urine may invalidate your results. Grip the handle of the tester, and dip the test end of the strip vertically into your cup of urine. Take care not to exceed the maximum level line when you dip. Hold the strip with the test end in the urine for the number of seconds indicated in the product directions. Typical dip times are usually between 3-10 seconds. Remove your test strip from the urine, and place the strip on the bathroom counter. You will notice dye begin to move across the test window of the strip. This indicates that the test is working. Set a timer for the length of time indicated in the product directions for results to appear. Typically this is 3-5 minutes. Look at the result window of your test strip to find 2 lines. The line closer to the handle of the strip is the control line, and the other line is the test line. If your test line is as dark or darker than the control line, your result is positive. If the control line is darker than the test line, your result is negative. Retest at the same time tomorrow.  Be sure to follow the instructions for interpreting the results. One line may indicate either a negative or invalid result, depending on if the...

Read the organization's mission statement and spend some time learning about them through their website. If the client is an individual, learn more about them from whomever or wherever you discovered they might be a potential client. Once you know more about the potential client, you should come up with a plan for attracting their business. Mention problems you can fix or services you provide, specifically choosing subjects that are most relevant to the client's work or problem. If someone is hiring a freelancer, read the description of the job thoroughly. Alter your resume or statement to appeal precisely to what the client is looking for. If they are looking for a specific skill you have, even if it seems minor or included in other resume items, mention that qualification. Your potential client might receive requests like yours regularly, or they might never have considered hiring someone for your service. Here are several ideas for how to attract someone's attention:  Describe a specialized skill rare among your competitors. Knowledge of an obscure programming language, art form, or other niche qualification related to your work could grab a client's attention and impress them even if they don't end up using that skill. Mention a famous client of yours, or briefly describe one or two of your most impressive accomplishments. If you can't compete using fame or specialization, hook a client by offering cheap or even free work on a temporary basis. This is a good strategy when you are starting out and need clients to recommend you. Your statement or sales pitch should only take 2 or 3 minutes to read or listen to, at most. Cut it down to 30 seconds if possible. Extra information such as a curriculum vitae or sample work can go in separate documents to be presented after the pitch. Stay focused on specific skills you have and specific proposals you have for working with the company. Avoid vague or rambling wording. If you are responding to an advertisement, you should follow the contact instructions included....

Reading truly is the gateway to knowledge, and there is a vast array of reading materials to choose from. Whether you choose to read classic literature, the newspaper, online articles, medical journals, or magazines, you will be learning new knowledge. Reading not only helps you learn about the world, but it will also strengthen your vocabulary. While there are endless places to browse, here are several places to start:  The BBC website or app and The Guardian are large-scale news sources.  The Wall Street Journal and New York Times are reliable newspapers. Time, The Atlantic, and The Economist are informational magazines. The Bloggies is an award-winning site where you can find blogs in a variety of categories. Reading is a great way to introduce yourself to new words. Once you come across a word you are unfamiliar with, use a dictionary to look it up its meaning. After you learn what the new word means, try to use it in conversations you have with people, or in things you write, such as a journal. If you hear a word throughout the day that you don't know, write it down so you can look it up later. When reading about a specific subject, be sure to refer to many different sources so that you can learn multiple perspectives. Often times, literature or news sources can be biased, or only present one side of an issue. In order to stay logical, and learn the full story or idea, it is important to research an issue from several different sources. This can be an easy way to come across some unknown thing that captures your interest and leads to further exploration, discovery, and knowledge. An on-line encyclopedia is direct and fast, but it virtually eliminates the possibility of discovering those interesting unknowns that you would stumble upon in a hard copy encyclopedia. The internet is full of quizzes, articles, and endless information sources that you can search for in seconds. If you have a computer with internet capability at home, then you have a wealth of knowledge at your fingertips. Beware of online...

Real Vans have an interlocking patterns of two different shapes: rhomboids and diamonds. There should be a three letter country code printed in one of the rhomboids. The three letter country code should correspond to a code on the sticker on the inside of the box. Real Vans have tight, even stitching. If there is double stitching, with two stiches in one hole, then the shoes are likely not real. Similarly, if any of the stitching patterns are not straight or the holes are at irregular distances, the shoes are likely fake. The laces on the shoes should be firm to the touch. Fake shoes will often have very soft laces. Vans shoes have a rubber collar on the toe that protects it from wear and tear. Whereas the rest of the rubber will be smooth, the toe will have a rough texture. If there is not much of a pattern on the toe, then the shoes might be fake.  There should also be a slight gap between the rubber collar and the cloth of the shoe. That gap will be composed of a small layer of smooth plastic, like that around the rest of the shoe. On many fake Vans, the rubber collar will extend all the way to the cloth, with no gap.  Compare the rubber collar to a pair that you know is real. The texture should be similar. On the inside heel, there should be a little piece of red cloth. It will be at the very top of the heel, but will not extend more than half an inch past the top of the heel. The shoes should bend up slightly, so that the toes face up. If the bottom on the shoes is flat, the shoes are likely fake. The toes should be bendable. You should be able to press on the heel and the toe, so that the back and front of the shoe touch.  If the shoes are stiff, they're fake.

Real labor contractions will quickly develop a pattern of duration and frequency. While the length of time that you experience the contractions and the time between them will vary, the changes will be progressive and steady.  You will be able to expect when the contractions will happen. There will not be gaps of time where the contractions stop, such as an hour long break. Use a timer, clock, or watch that tracks seconds to see how long your contractions last. Labor contractions last from 30-70 seconds. Then see how much time passes between contractions to determine the frequency, which is how often your contractions are coming. As you get closer to delivery, your contractions will last longer and happen more often.  Time the contractions from beginning to end. This is the duration of the contraction. The time between contractions shows the frequency. Labor contractions get more painful and longer as they progress toward the baby being born, so judge the intensity of your pain to see if it feels like it’s increasing. Use a pain scale of 0-10 to judge the pain as it comes, with 0 being no pain and 10 representing the worst pain you can imagine. If the ratings are steadily increasing, then you may be having labor contractions. The pain scale works best when the woman is asked by a health care provider. While contractions originate in the lower belly, you may feel pain radiate to your lower back and/or upper belly, which is a sign of true labor as opposed to other kinds of pain associated with pregnancy such as Braxton Hicks contractions. Radiating pain rules out Braxton Hicks contractions and is an indicator of true labor. But the lack of radiating pain doesn’t necessarily mean you aren’t having contractions. Some women may only have intense pain in the lower abdomen, while others experience a dull ache in the lower back and abdomen and pressure in the pelvis. Some also describe contractions as like the pain of strong menstrual cramps. As your labor contractions progress, you will not be able to talk or laugh...

Realize that everyone makes mistakes, and, at some point in their life, everyone says or does something they wish they hadn't. Try not to magnify the situation in your head. Also, avoid dwelling on it inwardly or outwardly. Everyone falls victim to social gaffes. If you dwell on your small misstep, you may actually make the situation worse. If you are a person who tends to blow simple mistakes out of proportion, just show yourself some compassion after bungling a first impression. Maybe it will be helpful to repeat this phrase silently in your head right after: "You're only human. You're only human." If an awkward silence ensues after your failed joke, say something like "It sounded funny in my head!" or "Wow, that wasn't funny at all". Such a remark shows the person or group that you read their responses and know that your joke fell flat. A brief self-deprecating comment reveals that you don't take yourself too seriously. Just be sure not to refocus the lens and spend the whole time putting yourself down for the benefit of impressing others. As quickly as possible, move on to another topic. Don't allow your gaffe to derail the conversation, which will only make you feel mortified. Once the ball gets rolling, make an extra effort to engage, asking questions and presenting your own opinions. Taking a more serious approach during the remainder of the meeting verifies that you're not all fun and games. There are several ways to expertly  change the subject in a conversation. In this case, returning to an earlier topic would probably be sufficient. Whatever the topic was prior to your failed joke, bring everyone back around. Say something like "So, you were telling me about your parents..." or "I can't believe the company has made such significant returns this year. That's great!" Telling jokes around people you first meet will always be hit or miss. Take some time to read the temperature of the individual people or the culture of the office where you work. If you notice others regularly telling lame jokes, you...

Realizing why someone hurt you will go a long way towards helping you not care about it, as it will help you understand and empathize with them and what they did. If you understand someone’s reasons for doing something, it becomes harder to judge them and hold it against them. Maybe they hurt you because they are hurt, or lonely, or afraid. Maybe they hurt you because they worry that you’ll hurt them first. Maybe they don’t have a good example from their own lives of how to love others or treat people well. There are a number of reasons why people hurt other people, intentionally or unintentionally. If someone hurts you or otherwise shows that they don’t appreciate you and your role in their life, just understand that it is their loss. If they want to be angry or hurtful or alone, that is going to affect them much more negatively in the long run than it will affect you. Realize that your time and affection are much better spent on someone who appreciates you. Take the time to appreciate the people who do care about. There are plenty of people who love you and love being around you. These friends, family members, coworkers or teachers are much more worth your time than someone who is all wrapped up in their own problems. When this hurtful person leaves your life, find new people to care about. This will give you new purpose and happiness and help you forget the things that they did. When you find new, wonderful people who appreciate you for who you are, you will find that all the things that other jerk did suddenly don’t matter to you at all. It’s hard to be hurt and angry when you’re so happy!

Receiving an invitation to be a groomsman is exciting. It also sends a meaningful message that you value your relationship with someone enough to ask that they stand beside you while you make one of the most significant commitments in your life. Accordingly, make your request personal by asking in person if you can.  There doesn’t need to be any pomp and circumstance. Simply get together and say something like, “Hey man, our friendship has meant a lot to me over the years. I wanted to ask you if you’d we willing to join Carrie and I on our wedding day as a groomsman?” Keep in mind you can still send along a funny card or a thoughtful gift in the mail. If you’re not able to speak in person with all of your groomsmen, consider writing a letter to those you will ask by mail.  Since a letter can be more personal than a phone call, this is preferable, especially for a close friend that lives further away.  Be specific with something like, “I’m writing to invite you to join us on our wedding day as a groomsman.” Include a more personal message as well. For instance, say something about what your relationship with the recipient has meant, and why you want them to be at your wedding. Even if you’re able to have the conversation in person, it’s worth sending a card with the details.  Since you already spoke about it in person, the card will simply function as a tangible reminder, with important information like dates, location, and dress code.  Choose or make a card that reflects your personality, an interest you share with your groomsman, or a design that fits with your wedding theme. Look at greeting card websites and wedding websites for examples of card designs. Many will allow you to order cards in a design you like and customize lettering and color schemes. If you haven’t finalized a date but want to nail down your wedding party, let them know what time of year you’re thinking. Get back to them about a specific day as soon as you determine one.

Receptionists are the people that represent the face of the company--they are the ones that clients first speak with them and the people and coworkers go to for information and event planning. Aside from taking calls and directing visitors, they often deal with clients, organize events, set up meetings, etc. With all of these responsibilities, receptionists need to be really organized while dealing with multiple demands at once. A person won’t last long as a receptionist if he or she can’t juggle more than one thing at a time and deal with them in an orderly fashion.  A great way to stay organized is to invest in a filing system that works best for you. It is important to know what papers and information your boss, your coworkers and your clients may need. Keep all of this information in separate folders--be they on your computer desktop or in hard copy. Organize your filing system in a way that works best for you--if that requires neon sticky notes attached to everything, so be it. Being organized also means being self-motivated--you don’t need anyone else to tell you how to do something, or keep you on track. If you are organized, you will know what tasks you need to complete each day, and what tasks are priorities. Have phone numbers handy. (lots and lots) i.e. co-workers, employers, contractors, vendors, emergency contact numbers, etc. You will need them all at one point or another. Keep the phone numbers organized on a Rolodex or appropriate computer program. The number one piece of technology receptionists have to deal with is the  telephone--and all of the buttons and separate lines that it comes with. Computer skills are also a must--most receptionists have to know how to use  email and must be skilled at word processing. It is also helpful to know how to create  spreadsheets, and use any industry-specific programs. Keep in mind that if the copier, scanner, or printer are near your desk, you will mostly likely be depended on to use them (and troubleshoot for coworkers who run into problems while using...

Recognize that wanting to take revenge on someone (by making him or her jealous, upset, or sorry) still qualifies as thinking about them. You can't move on and forget if you're obsessed with vengeance, so learn how to let it go.  If you believe in a higher power, karma, or some form of cosmic justice, reason that he or she will get the appropriate payback eventually. If you do not believe that someone else will dole out payback on your behalf, make peace with the fact that life is not fair. This person may have hurt you unjustly, but that does not give you the right to act out. Remember the old George Herbert quote: "Living well is the best revenge." Going on with your life and refusing to sink to the other person's level communicates to him or her that you will not be affected by what happened, essentially rendering it insignificant. If you have tried everything and still cannot resist thinking about him or her, try a new approach. Set aside a limited amount of time (such as an hour or two) to sit down and write out all your feelings about what happened. Once time is up or you've run out of things to say (whichever happens first), close the document and put it away somewhere. Next time you are tempted to dwell on this person, tell yourself, "No, I've already expressed my feelings about that. I won't waste time by doing it again." If absolutely necessary, grant yourself 10 or 15 minutes each day to feel emotional. When those minutes are up, tell yourself you’ll think about it tomorrow. As the days tick by, you’ll need fewer and fewer of those minutes. Even noticing that you need fewer and fewer minutes will help you feel good, too. Luckily enough, you control your thoughts. If you don’t want to think about something, you don’t have to. Busy yourself with school, work, or a project that will keep your mind focused. When you have other things to think about, they’ll fade into the background. If you do find yourself thinking of them, shift your attention. We all daydream and find ourselves thinking things we’re...

Recognize the timeslots you have available to work on homework.  You will have different amounts of time to work on homework different days of the week.  This will require you to plan accordingly.  If you’re involved in extracurricular activities on certain days of the week, get in the practice of working on conflicting homework assignments ahead of time.  Think about how long it will take you to complete assignments and plan accordingly. Schedule specific portions of larger projects separately. If you struggle with finding large enough time slots to complete your homework, recognize that you need to make the time to do so.  For instance, if you spend a good portion of each evening socializing with friends (online or in person), do all of your homework before you go out or get online. Getting up earlier will almost immediately improve your ability to get more done on a typical day. Even if you only get up a half an hour earlier every day, you can use this extra time to get ahead on reading and other responsibilities.  Kick starting your day will increase your productivity generally and prepare you for more efficient homework sessions.  Stick with it.  If you get in the habit of getting up a bit earlier, you’ll likely start going to bed earlier as well. Don’t fall into the trap of staying up late working on homework, as your focus and productivity is greatly diminished late at night. Don’t procrastinate your homework and try to finish it when you wake up in the morning. It will make your day more stressful and ruin your previous night’s sleep. This may seem obvious, but it will likely take more effort than you think. It’s easy to get distracted by friends or others’ activities.    Wear headphones and sit facing a wall if you’re prone to visual distraction. Remind yourself that getting your homework done during school hours allows you to do whatever you want in your free time, including hang out with friends. One of the reasons you should start thinking about assignments as soon as they are assigned is to...

Recognize we all go a little too far sometimes, and let miner offenses go. If a friend gets caught up in the moment and makes a disparaging comment, forgive him. Decide it was a mistake, assume he's sorry for having said it, and expect him to meet all other duties as a friend with compassion and empathy. If inappropriate comments or mean spirited jokes continue to be a problem, then you might consider addressing the issue with your friend. There are a few scenarios where this response might be appropriate, such as at school when those making the jokes don't know you well, or don't realize they're annoying you. At times, if you can show yourself to be a gracious good sport, you can win respect from those making the comments, and make new friends out of the deal. For example, if someone spills water on you and someone asks "Going for a swim?" you can say, "Darn, and I left my beach towel at home!" What constitutes humor varies wildly. Our physical maturation, emotional states, and personal circumstances all contribute to what we consider our sense of humor. Accept yours may be radically different than others. Ignoring jokes you don't find funny is an easy way to express your disapproval, without creating unnecessary tension.

Recovery is a long and hard process that is only made easier by having support from your loved ones. Your partner is a large part of your life, so acknowledge that you need your partner's support to get better.  Admitting your addiction to your partner may be embarrassing or uncomfortable, but it is the first step to getting the help and support you need. Just be honest with yourself. Before you tell your partner, realize that you will not have the same relationship with your partner as before. This doesn't have to be a bad thing, but there will likely be hurt and distrust you will have to work through. Think of it as a way to come out stronger on the other side. Your partner is important to you, so you want to make sure you work hard to get to a better place of respect, support, and trust. Before you tell your partner about your addictive disorder, figure out exactly what you want to say. Try writing down the points you want to make when you tell your partner about your addictive disorder. This will help you get your thoughts straight and help you remember everything you want to say. Even if you don't use the notes and say everything word for word as you wrote it down, you will feel less nervous being prepared, and having an idea of how you want to approach the conversation will help. When you tell your partner about your addiction, she may not have the best reaction. Before you tell your partner, prepare yourself for both positive and negative reactions. Your addictive disorder will affect you both, so be compassionate about any reaction your partner may have. Prepare yourself for the possibility that your partner may not want to work with your at first. Be strong in your devotion to your recovery and be ready to discuss these efforts with your partner.

Red lipstick is a statement piece, almost an accessory. As such a bold statement, it is important to keep the rest of your makeup toned down. Heavy eye makeup with red lipstick will leave you looking childish or costume-like. Rather, keep a neutral eye with soft skin for the most classic look. Unless you’re using a top-of-the-line lipstick, it is likely that your lipstick will fade or feather over time. Avoid wearing bad lipstick for extended periods of time by checking it often. Wipe off any that has bled outside your lips, and even out your lips by wiping off areas that are particularly heavy. Following the aforementioned tip, it is necessary to reapply red lipstick every few hours. When you noticed that it has faded significantly, swipe on a second (or third) coat. Keeping your lipstick fresh will keep your look sophisticated and classy rather than sloppy.

Red wine glasses are different from white wine glasses for a reason: to help aerate the red wine. If you are serving a larger number of people, you can use a red wine decanter instead; choose one with a larger bowl. Stop pouring at the widest part of the glass. This will allow more of the wine to come in contact with the air. It will also prevent any sloshing or spilling when you swirl the wine. As you pour, try to hold the bottle about 10 inches (25.4 centimeters) above the glass. This way, the wine will be exposed to more air on its way into the glass. The younger the wine is, the longer it will need to sit. For example, a young wine might need to sit for up to six hours, whereas an older wine might turn to vinegar after one hour.  If you are pouring an old, fragile, and mature wine, drink it within 30 minutes. Don't let it sit any longer than that. Lighter bodied red wines, such as pinot noir's, typically need only 15 to 20 minutes to breathe, if that. Swirling the wine in the glass helps aerate it further.

Red wine is best for making hot sangria, so avoid using a white wine for this recipe. Choose a bottle with fruity undertones to complement the fruit you’ll add. Pour the entire bottle into a large pot or saucepan or into a slow cooker or crock pot. This recipe serves 8. You can use apple cider and rum, or cranberry juice or orange juice and brandy. Adjust the amounts of cider or juice and liquor based on how strong or weak you like your sangria. Pour the cider or juice and liquor into the pot to meld with the wine. If you like your sangria sweeter, add 0.25 cups (59 mL) of honey to the pot. Alternatively, you can use 3 tablespoons (45 g) of sugar. You can add 2 or 3 cinnamon sticks, 4 to 6 whole cloves, 1 to 2 teaspoons (5.7 to 11.4 g) of nutmeg, and a few pieces of star anise. Mix and match the spices to your liking, or add 2-3 tablespoons (1-1.5 g) of mulling spices, instead. Give everything a good stir after adding the spices to the pot. Pick at least 1 citrus fruit (like orange or lemon) and 1 non-citrus fruit (like cranberries or apples). Add 1 cup (128 g) of chopped fruit to the pot. Turn on the burner or slow cooker to low heat and allow the mixture to simmer. Stir it occasionally to help all the flavors blend together. To keep it warm throughout the evening, let it continue to simmer on low, stirring occasionally. Take care not to let the mixture boil, or you could end up with a sticky mess.

Reducing the amount produced by a recipe is handled in much the same way as increasing it, only you're working with lesser amounts of each ingredient. First read the recipe through and figure out by how much you need to reduce the recipe. If the recipe produces enough for 4 and you only want sufficient for 2, then you'd cut it in half, and so on. If possible, make your recipe amount conversions in pencil beside the actual recipe. If a recipe calls for 1 cup (240 ml) of flour, then you should write in 1/2 cup (120 ml) flour. Continue this through the whole list of ingredients and amounts including spices. If the recipe calls for 1 egg and you're dividing your recipe in half, still use 1 egg. Lower the amount of other liquid in the recipe by 2 tbsp. (30 ml) for each half egg that you're rounding up. Scaling a recipe down means that you will need fewer ingredients. This holds true for the main ingredients such as proteins, vegetables and starches. Make a list of the amounts of each ingredient you need after scaling the recipe.  Prepare the recipe. The directions will remain the same but cooking times may need to be adjusted to allow for a smaller batch. Anything prepared for the oven will take less time. If dividing your recipe in half, also cut the cooking time in half. Check frequently to ensure you're not overcooking the recipe.

Reflexology can be carried out anywhere; however, creating a peaceful and clean setting will help obtain better results.  Peaceful surroundings can help you relax and get the most out of your session. Keep lighting low and make sure the temperature is comfortable. Consider gentle music or even silence.  Both can help bring about relaxation. Wash your hands and trim your fingernails. Remove any jewelry from your hands. Remove any socks or shoes. Make sure the feet are clean and free from any wounds or obvious injuries.  Wash both hands and feet before you begin.  Make sure your fingernails are trimmed and have no sharp edges. If the feet are injured in any way, do not apply reflexology techniques to them.  Look for any cuts, rashes, or warts before continuing. Take out your reflexology chart which maps areas of the foot you will be working with.  While you can work with the entire foot, there are some spots that are believed to best target the heart and circulation.  If your chart uses numerical or symbolic references, learn which numbers and symbols correspond to which areas of the feet. Find the areas that are labeled or correspond to the heart, circulation, and the lungs. Keep your chart in a place that makes it easy to reference once you begin working. Press the heart reflex point on your left foot using both of your thumbs. This reflex point is quite large, so walk your thumbs all over the area in a clockwise direction.  Targeting the heart reflex area is believed to reduce any stress in that area and result in better circulation.  Use the "thumb walking" technique.  Lay your thumb flat,  then bend it, bringing your hand up with the bend.  Lay your thumb flat again and keep your hand still.  You can also use the "finger walking" technique.  This is the same idea as the thumb-walking, however, you use your index finger.  This is mainly used on the top of the foot. Apply pressure only for a few seconds as you move along the heart reflex area.  If you forget exactly where the heart reflex point is, check...

Reflexology is the application of pressure to certain points on the hands and feet that correspond to areas of the body. There are a number of theories about how pressure on these points can relieve pain and discomfort. Some experts believe that reflexology disrupts pain messages from the brain and central nervous system. This technique also allows the body to relieve tension, which can reduce pain. Reflexology doesn’t “heal” your body. Instead, it’s a technique that helps your body repair itself. Energy is moved through the body. Maintaining a positive attitude towards reflexology can help improve your condition as well. According to reflexology, energy flows in the body along energy meridians. You may be able to feel this movement of energy as pressure points are activated. Reflexology is useful for bringing the body back into alignment through relaxation and tension release. These things will help relieve the body of excess stress, which can exacerbate physical conditions. Many clinical studies have observed the positive impact that reflexology has on the body. Reflexology has been shown to make a positive contribution to the following:  Improvement of symptoms (such as improved kidney functioning) Relaxation for patients (such as reduced anxiety and lowered blood pressure) Reduction in pain (such as osteoarthritis pain and pain from kidney stones) In one study, about two-thirds of patients reported significant migraine relief after undergoing 3 months of reflexology treatments. 19% of these patients stopped taking headache medication altogether.  Reflexology has also been shown to reduce symptoms associated with cancer treatments, diabetes, post-operative symptoms, and many other medical conditions.

Regardless of position, use as many wipes as you need to in order to make them completely clean. If possible, have them help with their own cleaning needs.  Use wipes that are free of alcohol or added fragrances to reduce skin irritation. When you are done with cleaning, place the soiled wipes within the soiled diaper and fold it up for disposal. Make sure to wipe the teen from front to back. This prevents the spread of fecal bacteria and is especially important when changing teen girls and transgender boys. After you have finished cleaning, rub a zinc-based skin cream around the skin covered by the diaper. This will prevent chafing and rashes, especially in those teens who always wear diapers. This is an especially intimate step, so teens who are able may want to do this themselves.  You can buy diaper cream in the form of an aerosol can. Your teen may prefer this option since you would not need to use your hands to apply the cream. If you see a diaper rash that is dark red or heavily raised, seek medical advice. Long-term rashes can get infected and lead to other health problems. Grab and unfold the fresh diaper and pull it up between their legs, securing it at both sides by fastening the tapes. Make sure that it's form-fitting without any gaps around the legs or waist, and that it doesn't impede movement. When you're done, put their lower garments back on.  In the standing position, you'll need to use one hand to hold the diaper in place and another to secure the tabs. In the sitting position, you will need to have the teen raise up in order to place the fresh diaper between their legs and secure it. In the laying down position, you will want to keep their knees bent as you place the diaper, releasing them after it is in place, then you secure the tabs. Place the soiled diaper in the trash or in a diaper bin. Dispose of any wipes that may have fallen on the floor or elsewhere during the process. Look over the area to make sure that it appears the same as it did when you arrived. When you are finished it is...

Regardless of what type of fluid you drink each day, you need to aim for an adequate amount to stay well hydrated.  If you don't meet your fluid needs you run the risk of becoming dehydrated.  Most health professionals recommended consuming at least 64 oz or about 8 glasses of hydrating liquids each day.  This amount may change depending on your age, gender and activity level.  Depending on these factors, your fluid needs may be up to 13 or more glasses daily. For example, if you run 3 miles (4.8 km) every day, you will most likely need more fluid to stay hydrated. When health professionals recommend drinking 8 glasses of fluids daily, they're talking about specific types of fluids.  Not all beverages count towards that recommended 8 glasses.  It's most commonly recommended to drink 8 glasses of water daily.  It's naturally no calorie, sugar-free and caffeine free.  It's the best option. However, there are other beverages that can hydrate you.  Cactus water and other plant waters (like coconut water), decaf coffee, decaf tea, sparkling water and flavored waters all count towards your fluid guidelines. Sweetened, alcohol or caffeinated beverages do not count towards your 64 oz.  Don't count sodas, coffee drinks, fruit juices, beer, wine or sweet teas. To help you meet those guidelines for all that fluid, you'll need to drink water consistently throughout the day.  However, if you are busy or forgetful, it can be hard to stay on top of that fluid goal.  To help you meet your specific fluid needs, keep water on you at all times.  If you constantly have a bottle of water or cactus water with you, you may be tempted to drink more frequently.  If you don't want to continuously buy bottled waters, consider purchasing a reusable plastic or stainless steel water bottle.  They're environmentally friendly and all you to fill up anywhere. Keep water bottles everywhere you go as well.  Keep one for your desk, keep one at home and also have one you leave in the car. Cactus water is a great beverage to drink to help prevent...

Regardless of whether you are interviewing for a private school or for a university, knowing about the school's history and expectations is essential. It allows you to demonstrate your interest in the school, and show that you can respect and adhere to what the school values. You should also know exactly what it is that the school can offer you in terms of degrees and opportunities. Find this information out by reading through the school's website and by flipping through any admissions brochures they sent you. Call the school's main number before going to the interview and ask for directions to the building and office you need to show up at.  Also find out the name of the person conducting the interview and how to address that person. This is especially important for college interviews, since college campuses usually have more than one building. Make sure you've mapped out your route well in advance. If you have already applied to the school, look over the application again to refresh your memory on what you wrote.  This is especially important if the application had essays, since you will want to be able to emphasize the vital points of your essay response during the interview. Even if the application had no essay, reviewing the questions that were asked will allow you to understand what the school considers to be valuable information. The admissions officer conducting the interview may have a few questions that deal specifically with the school or with your application, but he or she will probably resort to a few standard questions, as well.  "Why do you want to go to this school?" This is your chance to show off your knowledge of the school. If the school is sports-oriented, emphasize your interest in the sports program while briefly touching on academics. Similarly, if the school is focused on service or on academics, focus your response on those areas. "What do you plan on doing after you graduate?" Most schools will understand if you do not have your entire life mapped out yet, but at the same time, the...

Regardless of whether you're measuring a flat screen TV or another model type, start with the end of your tape measure at the top left corner of the screen and extend it to the bottom right corner. Measuring the screen diagonally will give you the standard screen dimension that manufacturers use to advertise the size of their TVs.  Some common sizes for TVs based on the diagonal dimensions of the screen include 24 in (61 cm), 28 in (71 cm), 32 in (81 cm), 42 in (110 cm). 48 in (120 cm), and 60 in (150 cm).  You can also find TVs with screens as big as 72 in (180 cm) or larger. This time, measure from the far left edge of the TV to the far right edge, including the bezel on both ends. The number you get will be the overall width, which should be a few inches less than the screen size.  A TV listed as 60 in (150 cm), for example, will in reality only be 52.3 inches (133 cm) wide. Your TV’s width is its most crucial measurement—it will come into play whether you opt to mount it on the wall or set it up on a cabinet or stand. Now, stretch your tape measure from the upper edge of the TV to the lower edge on the same side. Doing so will give you the overall height. Most newer TVs have a height that’s around 56% of the total width.  A 48 in (120 cm) TV with a screen that’s 42 inches (110 cm) wide will have a height of around 25–27 inches (64–69 cm). Generally speaking, height doesn’t matter as much as width. However, the vertical dimension could end up making a difference when you're deciding where to place your TV. This may be a little tricky if the backside of the TV is tapered. In this case, it can help to hold another long, flat object (such as a ruler) against the rear edge and measure the distance between the screen and the reference object. If that’s not an option, you may also be able to get away with simply eyeballing it.  You may need to consider the depth of your TV in order to guarantee that it will fit an existing cabinet or stand. TVs are continually being redesigned to take up less space. These days,...

Regret is a feeling based in the past. It’s difficult to live your life in the past when it’s actually happening in the present. Focusing on the moment means not being stuck on past experiences, thoughts, or thinking patterns. To help you tune in more to the present, bring your thoughts and awareness to now. Sit quietly and focus your mind on what’s happening right now.  With practice, you can train yourself to focus on something more productive than feelings of regret. Practice attending to your breathing. Focus on your breath, noticing your inhales and exhales. If you’re feeling overwhelmed by negative feelings associated with regret and can’t seem to get out of the cycle, turn to your senses. Chances are, if you’re caught up in regret, you’re not living presently. Focus on one sense at a time. For instance, start with sight and look around to observe what you notice. Really look with your eyes: notice colors, textures, movements, and contrasts of light and dark. Then tune into your hearing: listen to any noises occurring around you, from the hum of the air conditioner or footsteps across the hall. Slowly engage each sense one by one and bring yourself back to the moment.  By focusing on your senses, you’re allowing yourself to bring yourself back to the moment and distance yourself from regret. Learn to stop applying judgments and evaluations to yourself and to all of your actions. Don’t put yourself in the category of “good” or “bad” and instead, learn to accept yourself as you are. Accept that you are learning and growing every day, and each day is a step closer toward being a kinder, better version of yourself. Practice self-compassion by experiencing kindness, mindfulness, and connectivity with others.  Practice caring for and about yourself. Treat yourself like you would treat a best friend. Care about your own thoughts, feelings, actions, and reactions. When you feel like you’re not good enough, ask yourself, “What would I say to a friend feeling this way?”

Regular bathroom scales will not show sufficient detail for your baby’s weight. Instead, buy a special scale designed to weigh infants. Keep track of your measurements so you can discuss them with your baby's doctor if necessary.  Weigh your baby on a regular schedule to get an overall picture of weight gain and fluctuation. Avoid daily weighing or weighing multiple times per day unless instructed to do so by a physician for medical purposes, as weight naturally fluctuates. Posting a growth chart near your scale can help you keep track of which percentile your baby is in. Remember that it's more important that your baby is growing consistently than that he falls within a certain percentile. If your baby is not getting enough food, you will probably notice physical changes. If your baby appears healthy, her weight is probably not an issue.  She should be making soft stools several times a day in the first few weeks of life. After that, in general she should poop at least every few days. Her urine should be clear or light yellow and odor-free. Her skin should be a healthy color. You should be changing approximately six to eight wet diapers each day. Keep track of how often your baby is eating and how much he is eating. If you are breast feeding, keep track of the amount of time spent feeding. If you are bottle feeding or if your baby is already eating solid foods, keep track of the quantities. If you notice any indications that he may not be eating enough, such as multiple meals in a row without finishing, eating only small portions of meals, or going for several hours at a time with no food or drink, talk to your pediatrician. Weight is one factor that influences good health, but it is not the only one. Because there are a lot of genetic factors that influence weight, tracking developmental milestones is a much better way of making sure your baby is growing properly.

Regular exercise that involves lots of movement, including jumping and running, will stimulate lymph flow. As your muscles move, they massage your lymphatic system and improve lymph flow. Walking, running, and playing sports that involve a lot of movement are all great activities for stimulating lymph flow. Try to complete 150 minutes total of moderate exercise a week in intervals of at least 30 minutes to one hour of exercise a day. This particular modality is only certified to physicians, nurses, PTs, OCT, Massage Therapist, Therapist assistants through continuing education. Lymph vessels are also found under your skin and these vessels support your blood circulation. When your lymph flow slows down, your skin may appear dull or slightly yellow, or worse, you may experience signs of autoimmune disease. Manual Lymphatic Drainage Massage is a gentle rhythmical technique that works to improve lymph flow throughout your body.  Try to incorporate Dry Skin Brushing after a soak in a warm bath or while in a warm shower.If in the shower, take advantage of cool/ warm transitional hydrotherapy. When dry skin brushing, use a natural, bristle body brush, preferably with a long handle.Use long gentle strokes, but not too harm. This will stimulate your skin and remove dead skin. Brush your entire body, in the same directional format as your MLD massage that was conducted by your MLD specialized health practitioner. You can also incorporate salt into the massage by applying sea salt and a small amount of aromatherapy oil on the brush before you begin the massage. This will stimulate your skin and draw out toxins through your skin. Yoga practitioners believe yoga postures like “Twisting Chair” and “Seated Twist” can help to wringing out any toxins in your body.  To do Utkatasana (Twisting Chair): Stand with your feet hip-width apart on a yoga mat. Place your hands in prayer at the heart center, or middle of your chest. Inhale, then exhale and place your left elbow on the outside of your right thigh, just above your knee....

Regular garden or potting soil is not appropriate for growing these plants.  Most of the time, if you buy a Venus fly trap it will already be potted in suitable soil. However, if you need to add more soil to your potted plant, you will need to get the right kind. Venus flytraps will die if they are planted in regular garden soil or potting mix. These plants naturally live in soil mediums which are free draining and contain almost no nutrients or soluble minerals. Venus flytraps naturally grow in sandy soil that has very low fertility and very little organic material. This soil is usually slightly acidic. You can buy potting mix specifically geared towards Venus flytraps. This usually contains a mixture of sphagnum moss, silica sand, and perlite. They will not thrive in areas with too much shade.  During the spring and summer growing season, Venus flytraps will do best if they are kept in pots outdoors in direct sunlight except in the hottest weeks of summer. In the hottest part of summer, you should move your Venus flytraps to an area with partial shade or the plants will get too much direct sunlight. You can also grow Venus flytraps indoors, but they will not be as vibrant. Artificial light sources that are recommended are LEDs and fluorescent bulbs. You should never water this plant with regular tap water.  Tap water and bottled drinking water contains too many minerals. This will kill a Venus flytrap. You should only water your Venus flytraps with distilled water, deionized water, or reverse osmosis water. You can buy these bottled in the grocery store or garden stores and they are relatively inexpensive. You can also collect rainwater to use to water your Venus flytrap. Venus flytraps can become too moist and this will promote bacterial or fungal growth that can kill the plant.  How often you water your flytrap will depend on a number of factors. If you are keeping your plants in an area with lots of sunlight and humidity, they will dry out faster. If they are in a cool area, the soil will remain moist...

Regular polygons are polygons that have equal sides. If the sides of the polygon you’re looking at aren’t all the same length, you’ll need to find the perimeter using the method for irregular polygons instead. If the side lengths are equal, you’re working with a regular polygon. It doesn’t matter which side you choose since all of the side lengths are equal. Just make sure you’re only writing down the length of 1 side. For example, if you're working with a square that has a side length of 6, you would write down “6.” Don’t worry about the side lengths at this point. Just count how many sides the polygon has and write it down. For a square, you’d write down “4” since a square has 4 sides. The formula for finding the perimeter of a regular polygon is just the number of sides x the length of any side. Once you’ve multiplied those 2 numbers together, you’ve found the perimeter of the polygon!  In the square example, you know that the square has a side length of 6 and a total of 4 sides. Therefore, you'd just multiply 6 by 4 to get 24, which would be the perimeter of the square. Or, say you were working with a triangle that has a side length of 3. Since a triangle has 3 sides, you would multiply 3 (the number of sides) by 3 (the side length) to get 9. Therefore, the perimeter of the triangle would be 9.

Regular throat lozenges don't do much to heal your throat, but they do alleviate the pain.  The extra saliva you produce with the candy in your mouth will lubricate the throat to relieve the itchy feeling. Meanwhile, the medication in the drop acts as a local anesthetic which numbs the irritation in the throat. Antihistamines block histamine, a chemical in your body that can cause an itchy throat. Benadryl, Zyrtec, and Claritin are just a few brands of cold and flu antihistamines that are designed to soothe scratchy and sore throats. Side effects of antihistamines may include dry mouth, dizziness, and headaches. Plain old pain relievers, also called analgesics, like aspirin and Ibuprofen can also help to relieve the pain associated with an itchy throat. Follow the directions on the packaging for correct dosage. Keep in mind that aspirin should never be given to children or teenagers recovering from chickenpox or flu-like symptom, as it can lead to the rare but fatal Reye's syndrome. Throat spray is a great way of relieving itchy throats and dry, tickling coughs. They usually contain phenol (or a similar ingredient) which numbs the throat.  Throat sprays are available over-the-counter in most pharmacies and are relatively cheap. Some throat sprays even come in different flavors, like mint or berry flavor. Gargling with a mouthwash that contains menthol (such as Listerine) a couple of times per day helps to numb the throat, alleviating the irritating, itchy feeling. Most of the time, an itchy throat will get better with at home treatment. However, if your symptoms last for more than 10 days, worsen rapidly, or are accompanied by a high fever, you should call your doctor. If you are experiencing wheezing or trouble breathing, hives, facial swelling, a severe sore throat, fever, or difficulty swallowing, see your doctor immediately. Any of these symptoms could signal a more serious problem.  An itchy throat could be the result of an allergic reaction to food or medicine, which could occur between a few minutes...

Rejecting them around others can sting, so find a way to talk to them one-on-one. Be gentle and tell them you're sorry, but you can't go to prom with them. Rejecting someone can be hard, but being rejected can hurt. Thank the person for asking you to prom, then let them down gently. “Thank you, but I have other plans,” or, “I'm flattered you asked, but I'm not interested in going to prom with you,” are both direct but polite ways of turning someone down. Sometimes the other person can get annoyed or defensive after a rejection. Their feelings are important, but yours are, too. Stand your ground and don't let them convince you to go with them anyway; coercion isn't cool. Honesty is important, especially if you plan on going to prom still and don't want to hurt their feelings. Tell them you have other plans. Saying you want to go with your friends or already have another date is fine, so long as those answers are true. Combining a negative with two positives is a great way to turn someone down and can be used in many ways. Give the person a compliment before you reject their offer, then follow the rejection with another compliment. “It was really sweet of you to ask me, but I'm not interested in going to prom with you. You're a great person, and I'd love to stay friends,” lets them know you are still happy they asked, but can't accept their offer. It cuts through some of the sting and awkwardness of a rejection. Sometimes you accept a prom invitation quickly, or they asked you in public and you didn't want to embarrass them. If you've changed your mind, make sure they know as soon as you do. Letting them know within a day or two of accepting gives them time to find a new date and takes the pressure off of you. Be gentle with your words. One way to phrase it could be, "I wanted to talk to you about prom. I'm really flattered that you asked me, and I know I said yes to going with you, but I can't anymore." If they ask for an explanation, be honest. "I don't want to go with a date anymore," "I didn't want to...

Relationships that are having problems usually include couples that fight over the smallest, most minor topic.  Relationships that are doing well still argue, but the arguments never end with a complete and total meltdown of both people.  As a girlfriend who is not cheating, demonstrate to your boyfriend that, while you guys fight, it's never the end of the world.  If you were cheating, chances are your fights would be significantly more severe. Cheating on someone takes a lot of energy and usually results in feelings of guilt and anxiety.  If you were cheating on your boyfriend, chances are you'd be showing signs of depression, anxiety, and guilt.  If you're a calm person who doesn't appear to be at all worried about your relationship, how can your boyfriend think you're cheating on him?  Ask him if you've ever been upset for no reason when he's asked you something (e.g. like where you've been).  If you've always given a reasonable explanation about your whereabouts, why is he worried? Ask him if you have weird and unexplained mood changes that have nothing to do with biology or obvious external events (e.g. problems with family or at work).  If you've never exploded at him for reasons he can't explain, why would he think you're harbouring guilt about cheating? Someone who was cheating on their boyfriend wouldn't be trying to advance their current relationship.  If you and your boyfriend talk about your future often, or talk about things like how you see yourselves in 20 years, you're very unlikely to be cheating on him.  These aren't the types of conversations someone who is cheating would want to have.  If you were cheating, these are the conversations you'd likely try to avoid or gloss over. One of the last things a cheating girlfriend would do is invite the boyfriend she's cheating on to family events and show him off.  Make sure to include your boyfriend in family events.  Encourage your parents or siblings to communicate directly with him, if they want.  Brag about his accomplishments to your family...

Release your feelings.  This is the best thing to do, to vent out whatever you feel and just have some alone time.  Don't suppress any emotions - confront the things upsetting and angering you and release them, whether it be by crying or screaming into a pillow. Use your next day to talk it through, and sort things out.  Talk to a friend or someone trusted about what you thought about your ex, but think more about why you broke up.  Talking to someone else means there's someone to verbalize your issues with, rather than trying to cope with everything on your own.  Remind yourself why you can deal without this relationship, and list ways to help you start moving on. This day is for clearing your head and setting yourself a clear sketch of the future without your ex. If you keep anything at all, be sure to think of it a token of friendship, not of your relationship.  If they bring bad memories, then throw them out or dispose of them in any way you desire.  Take down photos.  If photos linger, it shows you are still thinking of your ex, and some studies show it can actually cause physical pain.  Be sure to return anything to your ex that you know could cause issues.  If you have something valuable, and it was not a gift, it may be best to give it back.

Released in 2006, The Secret DVD is a documentary style self-help video that claims to reveal the secret to happy, fulfilled life.  The big secret is, essentially, that thinking something will turn it into reality. The film claims that many of the great thinkers throughout history have practiced this secret truth including Plato, Beethoven, William Shakespeare, and Albert Einstein. According to the film's website, "Rhonda Byrne's discovery of The Secret began with a glimpse of the truth of life within a 100-year old book. She went back through the centuries, tracing and uncovering The Secret that lay at the core of the most powerful philosophies, teachings and religions in the world."  This theory shrouds the film's premise in historical mystery, beginning with the Emerald Tablet  which supposedly contained the information of The Secret, and later with the secret order of the Rosicrucians  who were rumored to be the protectors of The Secret. The Secret book was written by Rhonda Byrne and was intended to accompany the film.  The book explains The Law of Attraction and how visualizing something and acting as if it is already present in your life can make the Universe provide that thing to you. According to the book's website, "Everything is possible, nothing is impossible. There are no limits. Whatever you can dream of can be yours, when you use The Secret." The Secret claims that all energy is relative and reciprocal. Thus, if you send out positive energy, positive energy will be sent back to you. To this end, there are two keys to creating positive change in your life:  Gratitude. Being grateful reinforces to the Universe that you believe you will receive the thing that you desire. It also creates more positive energy so that you can receive more positive energy. Visualization. Visualizing your desires allows the message to be relayed more clearly to the Universe.

Relying on your gut is important in matters of the heart, especially when it comes to deciding whether or not to give someone a second chance. Take stock of your feelings about the situation and the person. Try to determine how you feel about them before you decide to go any farther.  If your instincts are making you feel uneasy about the situation, don’t take this lightly. Reigniting an old flame can be hard work, so don’t jump into something if your heart seems to be telling you to be cautious. It may be hard to pinpoint your feelings without designating some time for this purpose. Take time out in a quiet space and try to detect your immediate gut instinct about your Ex asking you out again. What is your instinct telling you? Are you sad, happy, depressed, moody, enthusiastic, or excited? Try not to question this instinct. If your gut intuition is positive, then he may be worth reconsidering. If your gut intuition negative, then you may need to just respectfully decline his offer and move on. Take some time to think about what happened between the two of you in the past. Why did you break up? How do you feel about him now? How did you feel about yourself when you were together? There are a million reasons why people break up. Think about why you two broke up and decide how you feel about it. The most important thing here is to realistically reflect on what actually happened between the two of you and think about your feelings on the issue. There is always an underlying cause for any break up. Think about why the two of you broke up and consider if the situation is still the same. Have your circumstances changed enough that you think your relationship could be more successful this time around? Perhaps you broke up because you didn’t have enough time for each other, but now your work situation has changed and it could work between the two of you. Or maybe you broke up because he cheated on you, in which case you would have to decide if you could move forward and trust him again. It is important to stay in...

Remember or write down the username of a gamer you enjoyed playing with. This way, if you see them again, you’ll be able to recall aspects of their playing that you like, or, if they mentioned something specific while playing, you’ll be able to talk about it with them. Compliments are a great way to reach out for the first time. If you liked a strategy that someone used, or noticed a great move they made, let them know. Saying something like "great shot!" may not seem like much, but it lets them know that you've noticed them. Message a user you've enjoyed playing with and ask them if they'd like to play again. Consider logging in around the time of day when you last played with them, in order to increase your chances of seeing them online.  Many games offer the ability to “friend” another player, which will notify you when they’ve logged into the game. This way you can see when your new friend is playing and invite them to play with you at any time. Say something like, "Great game yesterday! Wanna play another one?" If you want to be formal, you can ask someone if they’d like to play again soon, nailing down a date and time for another game. This can be a good way to strengthen beginning friendships. Try phrases like:  “I enjoyed playing with you! Want to play again sometime soon?” “You’re good at this. Want to play another one?” While you might be looking for lifelong friendships, they might just barely be interested enough to play another round with you. Don’t ask for personal information straightaway, and never give up personal information unless you feel safe doing so.  If you ever feel unsafe while talking to another user (if they're asking for personal information, such as your full name, telephone number, mailing address or other sensitive information), block them or stop talking to them. Only offer personal information if you think it will help your friendship grow, and won't be used in a devious way by another person. For example, if your friend gives you their first name and asks yours, it's...

Remember that glasses can be a great fashion accessory, but for most people they are also there to serve an incredibly important function which is to help you see. If your glasses don't serve those needs, then they don't work for you.  Begin by asking a salesperson which frames will work with your prescription (for instance, some people with very high prescriptions must choose frames that have wide frames to hold the lenses, so thin wire frames might not be an option). Ask a salesperson to measure your head and show you which glasses will fit you and which will not. Having a good, comfortable fit will help you feel confident in your choice. Your sense of style and personality can really come out in your glasses, and you should not feel confined to certain shapes or colors if something else is more your style, or if your big personality is best expressed in a different shape or style.  If that means choosing big square glasses on your big square face, do it! Olivia Wilde has famously pulled off that look, and because she was confident in herself, she made those glasses look like they were made for her. Similarly, Ginnifer Goodwin has a very round face, but paparazzi have taken pictures of her in equally round sunglasses on many occasions and she pulls them off without a hitch. When Daniel Radcliffe made round glasses hip as the character Harry Potter in the popular movie series, his character started out as a round faced young boy and eventually grew into a more square-jawed young man. He was able to pull off the round framed glasses both ways. Instead of following the so-called "rules" about face shapes, decide what elements of the rules are important to you and what parts you are comfortable bending or breaking altogether.  For instance, if you have a round or soft-edged face, instead of avoiding round frames altogether, pay attention to the size of the glasses and avoid small, delicate round frames. Any larger frame will tend to look better on a round face, even if its a rounded frame, since small frames...

Remember that taking yourself too seriously can actually hurt your relationships with your colleagues. A good sense of humor, combined strong work ethic, have been shown to be important traits in successful leaders. By being funny at work, you can enhance your reputation there. Humor can be used to grow group cohesiveness by diffusing negative situations and generating positive feelings. You can use humor to draw attention to things you have in common with co-workers or a boss. This will help you make friends in the workplace and make the workplace more comfortable. If you are trying to are collaborating with someone for the first time, delivering criticism, or supporting a controversial idea or plan, humor can be a great way to get their attention without seeming pretentious or superior. You want to come off as funny, not passive-aggressive or outright offensive. You also want to be able to grab and keep people's attention, but not because they find you offensive. At work, avoid forms of "low comedy" that would be too risky.   Possibly offensive topics include physical appearance or shortcomings, oppressed groups (e.g. women and minorities), physical or mental disabilities, and references to bodily functions and sex.

Remember that the measurement to making steamed rice is "one part rice, two parts liquid". So, if you use a cup of dried white rice you should use two cups of liquid. One cup of dried rice is plenty to serve two people. If you're serving more people than that you should increase the amount of rice and water accordingly. Make sure the pan is big enough to accommodate the amount of rice and liquid you are using. While the style of pan you use does not matter too much, you will want to use one which has a tight-fitting lid. Put a tablespoon of olive, peanut, or other oil into the pan. Add in more if you are making a large amount of rice. Turn the burner on medium and heat the oil slightly, then add your rice to the pan. Stir it to make sure all the rice is well coated with oil. At this point, the rice will have a translucent look to it. Cook or fry the rice in the oil just a bit longer if you want a drier, crispier rice. After a minute or so it will turn from translucent to a hard white color. Add your water and give it a slight stir to make sure all the rice is in the water. Then stir occasionally until the water comes to a boil. Turn the heat down extra low when the rice comes to a boil. The dial should go as low as you can go on a gas burner and then put a lid on the rice. Let it simmer, without removing the lid, for 15-20 minutes. Any longer than this and you're risking burning the bottom of the rice. Make sure you don't remove the lid! This point is very important because this is the "steaming" step. Turn the burner off completely after simmering. Set the pan aside with the lid on. It can sit like this until you are ready to use it, but let it continue to steam for at least 30 minutes. Enjoy your steamed rice!

Remember that you're not writing a standup comedy routine. But eulogies often elicit a little laughter from the congregation, which can be helpful for everyone who is mourning. Don't write a slapstick comedy, but try to give one or two little anecdotes that will make anyone who knew your grandparent chuckle and think, "That's so true!" Or you may want to tell an anecdote that will end with a twist no one was expecting, but which captures a quirk about your grandparent. However you choose to write the eulogy, remember that laughter helps people heal, and you don't need too much of it to be successful.  Don't write jokes. Remember that it's still a funeral, but one or two humorous and well-placed anecdotes can help lighten the mood and make everyone remember the fond, happy memories they had of your grandparent. It's important to consider your grandparent's personality as you draft your eulogy. If your grandparent was very serious in life, you may want to avoid humorous anecdotes. If your grandparent was extremely religious, then feel free to mention the role that faith played in your grandparent's life. There is no absolute rule in writing a eulogy, other than trying your hardest to capture your grandparent's spirit and personality in writing. Focus on what your grandparent would have wanted to hear, and what is appropriate and important in memorializing his or her life. It's okay if the first draft of your eulogy focuses on your thoughts and feelings, but remember that it isn't ultimately about you. It's perfectly acceptable to write about your specific relationship with your grandparent, but avoid lingering on how you feel or what you're thinking. Everyone knows you care about your grandparent and will miss him or her, and what they really want to hear is a loving tribute to your grandparent's life. Consider having someone else read your eulogy beforehand and ask them if there's too much of you in it. Having an outsider's opinion may help you recognize ways to focus more on your grandparent and your...

Remember the most embarrassing moments in your life so far, the monumental stuff-ups, the times you refused to make changes, the breakdowns in communications that you played a major part in, and maybe even the time you tried to be funny around your friends and only crickets chirped. These things can be hilarious. Telling other people about very embarrassing moments in your life is a great way to get them to laugh. Take a page from famous improv comic Colin Mochrie, who said: "He had the kind of face only a mother could love, if that mother was blind in one eye and had that kind of milky film over the other... but still, he was my identical twin." Tell self-depreciating jokes rather than making jokes at the expense of others. More people will be more willing to laugh. Rodney Dangerfield made fun of both his sanity and his looks with this one: "I went to the psychiatrist, and he says 'You're crazy.' I tell him I want a second opinion. He says, 'Okay, you're ugly too!'"  Redd Foxx had this to say about his silly devotion to drugs and alcohol: "I feel sorry for people who don’t drink or do drugs. Because someday they’re going to be in a hospital bed, dying, and they won’t know why." A great joke from Henry Youngman: "I was so ugly when I was born, the doctor slapped my mother." Different things make different people laugh. Some people find that sensationalism causes them to laugh; others find that satire does the trick. Learn which is which, and deliver your jokes and anecdotes so that they apply to many different categories of humor and emotion at once.  Not everyone knows what it's like to ride in a helicopter or be a millionaire or have a baby. But most people know what it's like to go fast, fantasize about money, and love another person deeply. So make your jokes cover more ground by utilizing really basic, but profound, human emotions. When you're in a group of people you don't know, listen to what subjects they're talking about and what's making them laugh. Are they the witty banter type? The slapstick, or...

Remember when your Grandma gave you salt water to gargle? Well, it works! The salt acts as a mild antiseptic and reduces the swelling by drawing out the water in the swollen tissues in the throat. Research has shown that gargling is helpful in alleviating sore throats and also congestion. Add about 1 teaspoon of either table salt or sea salt to 8 ounces of warm water and stir to dissolve the salt. Gargle with the solution for about 30 seconds and spit it out. Repeat once every hour. Add 10-20 drops of Tabasco sauce to an 8oz glass of water. Tabasco is made from hot chillies so it works like capsaicin, which helps to treat aches and pains, and it also has antiviral properties. Don't swallow the gargle as it may irritate your stomach. No one knows exactly why, but apple cider vinegar seems to work much better than any other sort of vinegar. The acid in the vinegar kills bacteria. Add 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar to 8 oz of warm water. Place the gargle into your mouth, and gargle for about 30 seconds. Then spit it out. You'll want to do this 2-3 times a day, until your throat heals up. Baking soda is extremely alkaline (the opposite of acidic), which can help soothe sore throats, especially if gargling with apple cider vinegar is difficult for you. Baking soda is also anti-bacterial because it changes the pH of the throat. Add ½ teaspoon of baking soda to 1 cup of very warm water. Add 1/2 teaspoon of table or sea salt. Gargle with this mixture every 2 hours. You can add 1 tablespoon of honey and/or lemon to any of the gargles listed above.  Honey is antibacterial and soothing because it draws water out of inflamed tissue, while lemon is acidic, contains Vitamin C and is both antibacterial and antiviral. Do not give honey to any child under the age of 1 because young children may be susceptible to infant botulism which can contaminate honey.

Remember your readers are 13-20 years old, and are often going through heavy teen issues around love, loneliness, and desire. Avoid formal terms and language, and use descriptions that will seem accessible to a teenager.  Rather than dumb down your language, listen to how teenagers you know talk and interact. The goal is to create believable dialogue and reactions between characters. You want your reader to relate to the your protagonist and her perspective on the world. For example, in Twilight, there is a scene where Bella tries to flirt with Jacob, a 15 year old boy who turns into a werewolf when the sun goes down. Their dialogue is awkward and hesitant. Bella feels embarrassed by her attempts at flirting and tries to hide her attraction to Jacob. Many teenagers can likely relate to this scene, and understand how Bella might be feeling. This makes Bella an effective protagonist in the story. This is a basic writing rule for all genres, not just teen romance. Rather than direct the reader on how they should feel in a scene, show an emotion through the character's actions and through dialogue. For example, rather than tell the reader, “Bella was upset at Jacob. She felt betrayed”, you can use her action and dialogue to show these emotions. “Bella glared at Jacob, her fists clenched at her sides, her mouth twisted into a frown. “I can't believe you did that,” she yelled at Jacob.” Think about what teens might be struggling with at their age. Often, teens are trying to figure out who they are going to be as adults. They may experience big life issues, like moving to a new city, realizing feelings of desire and love, and wrestling with sexual attraction. A good YA romance novel will look at the larger themes of being a teenager, and incorporate them into the novel. Consider a big theme you may want to explore in your teen romance story. This could be as simple as a protagonist with a special ability that she keeps hidden, causing her to feel like an outsider or an outcast. Or your protagonist could be wrestling...

Remember, the circular cake is Minnie's head. Carefully transfer the two small circles you just cut out to the same tray as the circular cake. Place the ears on either side of Minnie's head. Use the remaining 9 inches (23 cm) by 13 inches (33 cm) cake to cut out a bow. You can cut out the bow freehand or cut out a template first using cardboard paper. To make the bow, cut out two triangle-shaped pieces of cake and one small circular piece of cake. Place the small circle between Minnie's ears. Then, add your triangles on either side of the circle with the pointed ends of the triangles touching the circle. When they're done, there should be a bow shape between Minnie's ears.

Remember, your followers are largely responsible for your success. If they enjoy your content and you're a considerate host, they will be more likely to suggest your content to their friends. One critical component of respect on Tumblr is being open to hearing criticism or a perspective that is different from your own. If someone likes one of your posts or leaves an encouraging or helpful comment on your page, remember to return the favor. Social networking is about reciprocation. Encouraging your followers to submit fan art or other types of work is a fantastic way to retain followers, bring in new ones, and help the Tumblr community grow. While it's important not to post relentlessly all day, your followers will invariably have questions, concerns, and comments. Addressing these throughout the day will eventually get you a reputation for being attentive and considerate of your followers' needs.  If you have a smartphone or a tablet, you can install the Tumblr app for free. This allows you to constantly engage your followers while away from your computer. If you're going to be away from Tumblr for awhile, you can queue your posts to make sure that they are uploaded evenly during your absence. Most of the followers you gain will be interested in the content you were originally posting. While your content should evolve with you, keep in mind your followers and their likes. With this in mind, don't let followers dictate your content entirely. Your blog is yours to command.

Remember: nothing is easier if you don't talk about it. Your close friends should be your trusted advisers when it comes to dealing with crushes. Even if you don't take their advice, it'll feel great to get this major source of emotional stress off of your chest, so speak up! Another side benefit is that talking to your friends about your crush can force you to actually do something about it. Once your friends know about it, they'll subtly push you to take action. This can be a good thing if you'd lack confidence normally. To deal with a crush, you must crawl before you can walk. Try to limit your one-on-one time with your crush initially. Instead, try to hang out in groups. It's much easier to come across as charming when you have your friends around to do some of the "work" in the conversation for you. Being in the company of people you already know will also make you feel more at ease, so conversation will come more naturally. Gradually move on to one-on-one hangout sessions. Eventually, if you want your crush to develop into something more, you'll need to spend some alone time with that person. Try not to think of your crush as "perfect" or unattainable — s/he is not. Your crush has flaws, fears, and things s/he is bad at. In other words, your crush is a human being just like you. Letting yourself believe that your crush is somehow "better" than other people will only make it harder to keep your cool when you're together. If you find yourself freaking out when you're around your crush, think back to some time that you remember her/him doing something wrong. This can be almost anything, like getting a fact wrong, making a bad play during a sports game, or accidentally doing something embarrassing. This is a good way to remind yourself that your crush is far from perfect, even if it may not always seem like it. Staying calm about your crush isn't all about how you manage your thoughts and behavior. It's also about how you think about yourself. Remember that you are the most important one in your...

Remembering measurement equivalents is a great way to speed up cooking time in the kitchen. The most simple conversion is tablespoons to teaspoons. If you are missing a tablespoon, simply measure out three level teaspoons instead. A tablespoon is equivalent to 1/16 of a cup, which will allow you to easily measure out that amount without a measuring spoon. Given this small portion, it is easiest to measure out 1/16 in a large, clearly-marked measuring cup. Otherwise, it would be best to approximate one tablespoon using half of an 1/8 cup, the smallest measuring cup in a set. For fast conversions, remember that 15 ml of a liquid is the equivalent of 1 tablespoon. This means that there will be between 16 and 17 tablespoons in a common 250 ml serving of liquids, which equals 1 cup. Be sure that all measurements are level to ensure even conversions. to measure a tablespoon of liquid. Some bottles will purposefully hold a single tablespoon, making it easy to portion out that amount while cooking or baking. This may apply to oil, flavor extracts, and other similar ingredients. Measure how much your bottle caps hold when you first purchase a new cooking ingredient to have the conversions in mind in the future.
