Apple cider vinegar has long been used as a home remedy for liver cleansing and blood purification.  However, it also has an array of other benefits, such as aiding digestion, promoting weight loss and clearing acne. Keep in mind that apple cider vinegar will only work as a liver detoxifier if combined with a healthy balanced diet. Be certain to buy organic unfiltered apple cider vinegar, as this contains a higher nutritional content. Shake the bottle before pouring to distribute the thicker, hazier-looking layer at the bottom — this is known as "the mother" and is the most nutritious part of the vinegar. Apple cider vinegar can be used to detox your liver on an ongoing basis and doesn't require any fasting.  All you need to do is add 2 to 3 teaspoons of the vinegar to an 8oz glass of water and drink it before every meal. Alternatively, you can add 1 or 2 tablespoons of the apple cider vinegar to a large glass of water and drink it first thing in the morning, on an empty stomach. Alternative ways to add more apple cider vinegar to your diet include:  Making a tea by adding a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar to hot water and adding honey to sweeten. Making a salad dressing by mixing apple cider vinegar with flaxseed oil and honey.

Apple juice and yeast are the only essential ingredients, but there are a few other ingredients that can be added in order to alter the final product.  You can either use apple juice or apple cider. Many prefer the taste of pasteurized, sweet apple cider, but you could use fresh apple juice just as easily. Note, however, that unpasteurized juice will need to be sanitized before you can ferment it. Dry wine yeasts are affordable and effective. Beer yeasts are also affordable, and many beginning cider makers find them easier to work with. Specialized yeast packages specifically labeled for use with hard apple cider are also available but tend to be more expensive. Pectic enzyme helps clear cloudiness and is often used with heat-brewed cider. Adding sugar to the cider will product a higher alcohol content. The extra apple juice is only needed if you plan to use a starter. All of your supplies need to be washed with hot water and mild dish detergent before use.  Rinse well to remove any soapy residue. Let the supplies dry completely before use. Wild bacteria can cause the cider to taste bad and can even turn your batch of hard cider into vinegar. This step is only optional, but creating a starter allows you to verify that your yeast is alive and active and begins the fermentation process quicker.  Pour your apple juice into a resealable container with a tight lid. Pour half of your yeast into the apple juice, seal the container, and shake well for a few seconds. When bubbling occurs, release the pressure inside the container by opening the lid. Note that it may take five to six hours before bubbling starts. Reseal the lid and place the container in the refrigerator overnight. Remove the starter a few hours before you brew your cider.

Application of cold causes temporary numbness of the nerve endings, leading to reduced sensation, soothing the skin, and reducing your urge to itch. It also helps in sloughing off dead skin, leading to a smoother appearance and quicker healing.  Put cold water in a bowl with some bath oil. If you want it colder, you can add some ice to the water. Soak a paper towel or clean washcloth in the water. Hold it on your face over the affected area for about 5 minutes. A cream or ointment is best, as they have more oil than lotions, which are heavier on water. The oil helps protect and moisturize your skin better.  Pick a cream that is fragrance-free, and make sure to keep it out of your eyes when applying it. Apply moisturizers as often as your skin feels dry. Applying it after a shower or washing your face is especially effective. These moisturizers soften skin and help heal and prevent flare-ups. Stress can make your eczema worse, as can exposure to chemical irritants. Because of this, it often helps to use a holistic medicine approach. Aromatherapy, massage, and similar techniques can help reduce stress and potentially bolster your immune system. Many alternative medicine skin preparations are soothing and irritant-free, such as a light layer of unrefined coconut oil.  If you are currently taking medication for your eczema, consult your doctor before taking any dietary supplements or skin care treatments, including herbal remedies. Essential oils are highly concentrated and should not be used undiluted, especially around sensitive areas such as the eyes. Even when diluted, take care not to let any get in your eyes. Oral antibiotics are sometimes used when you get an infection related to your dermatitis. Because the eye area is more sensitive, your doctor may want to prescribe you an antibiotic if you develop dermatitis around one or both of your eyes.

Apply a glass-etching product to your scratched lenses.  It works by removing the anti-glare and anti-scratch coatings on your plastic lenses but leaves the original plastic lens intact.  Use a glass-etching chemical on plastic lenses only, never glass. Other specialty products temporarily fill the scratches on your lenses making them less visible but leaving behind a glossy film. Be careful not clean and polish your lenses to the point that you change the thickness of the surface.  Any product or procedure that changes the surface of an eyeglass lens can also change the refraction and effectiveness of that lens. Abrasive cleansers, baking soda and toothpaste call all be used to polish scratched surfaces. Waxy products like Lemon Pledge and Carnauba cleaner wax actually fill light scratches with wax.  However, the wax will reduce your visibility and require reapplication every few days. You can also try rubbing alcohol or diluted ammonia.  After treating your glasses with one of these products, polish them with a soft cloth, ideally one made especially for cleaning glasses. Lenses are delicate and should be treated with care to prevent them from getting scratched.  Use an eyeglass case.  A sturdy, cushioned case will protect your eyeglasses; place them in a case rather than in your pocket or throwing them directly into your purse. Wash your lenses.  Clean your glasses every day with soapy water and dry them with a clean, soft cloth made for this purpose. Stay away from unfriendly products.  Some products can harm your lenses and should be avoided.  Don't use facial tissues or paper towels to clean your lenses and stay away from anti-bacterial soaps when you wash them. Be careful when using hairspray, perfume or nail polish remover--they can remove the coatings on lenses.

Apply a hair mask at least once a month to provide deep conditioning and to encourage softness and shine. Use a hair mask that's specially designed for your hair type, whether your hair is dry, oily or colored. Good hair masks can be found in pharmacies and hair salons. Alternatively, you can make your own hair mask, using ingredients from your kitchen.   For all hair types: avocado and honey: Cut and scoop out the flesh from a ripened avocado and mix in a tablespoon of organic honey. Apply to hair and allow it to sit for 20 minutes before rinsing it off in the shower.   For dry hair: olive oil and egg: Combine three tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil with two eggs and apply the mixture to your hair and let the mixture sit for 20 minutes before rinsing in the shower with cool water (so the egg doesn't cook!). If you do not like the smell of raw eggs, you can use a ready egg oil (eyova) instead.    For oily hair: apple cider vinegar and lemon: Combine 1/4 cup of apple cider vinegar with the grated peel of an entire lemon and allow it to set for 15 minutes to absorb the excess oil from your scalp, and then rinse in the shower.    For flaky scalp: banana, honey and almond: Mash together 1/2 a ripe banana and add two tablespoons of honey and a few drops of almond oil and allow it to set with a shower cap on for 20 minutes before rinsing. Apply to serum to wet hair before drying, or to freshly blow-dried hair. It will help keep your hair soft and shiny, while minimizing frizz.  Usually only a very small amount of serum is required (dime-sized amount). Apply serum to ends and mid lengths of hair, but avoid the roots, otherwise your hair will look greasy. It is crucial to apply some sort of heat protection product before subjecting your hair to high temperatures from irons and dryers. Heat is your hair's worst enemy, so use a heat-protection spray to lock in moisture and minimize burning and breakage.  Heat protection products come in many forms, including sprays, serums, mousses and creams. Always apply heat...

Apply a heavy coat of petroleum jelly over all areas of the pumpkin, focusing on spots with exposed flesh.  A thick coat is better than a thin coat. As the theory goes, squirrels do not like the sticky texture of petroleum jelly, so the stickier you make the surface, the better. You could also use a medicinal, petroleum jelly based vapor rub. These rubs usually have a potent odor, which can serve as a further deterrent for squirrels and other critters. Petroleum jelly will usually stick to the pumpkin even after the rain, and it may even last for the duration of the season. Check the pumpkin periodically, however, just to make sure that it is not in need of another coat. Coat all sides of your pumpkin with lacquer spray. Let dry until hard.  The spray will create a crunchy texture on the surface of the pumpkin. This might be unpleasant for some squirrels, but not for all. In order to work at all, the spray needs to be applied to all parts of the pumpkin, especially any exposed portions. If the squirrels sense any soft areas, they will still chew the pumpkin up. A lacquer spray with a potent odor may be more effective than one that dries odorless. Thoroughly coat all sides of the pumpkin with hair spray, focusing on areas of exposed flesh.  A thicker coat is better than a thin coat because it will be stickier. The sticky texture of the hair spray is what turns away many squirrels. Note that you will need to reapply hair spray every day or two, especially after the rain. It can get worn off easily, and once it wears away, there will be nothing left to protect your pumpkin from furry menaces.

Apply a quarter or dime-sized amount of conditioner, depending on the length of your hair. You want to use enough to coat the strands of your hair without weighing it down. Gently massage it through your hair, focusing on the tips, and rinse out with lukewarm or cool water.  If your hair is extremely dry, you might want to consider a leave-in conditioner as well. This will protect your hair from drying out during the day, helping it stay shiny and manageable. These are especially great for curly hair, which is more likely to be dry. If your hair looks dull and lifeless after conditioning, you might want to switch your conditioner. Look for one made with nourishing natural oils and free of silicones. Restoring life to damaged hair may require more than routine conditioning. To get the shine and texture you crave, try using a deep conditioner once a week. You can use a store-bought deep conditioner or try a household oil like coconut oil, almond oil or jojoba oil. To deep condition your hair,  Dampen your hair and apply one to two tablespoons of deep conditioner. Make sure it coats every strand of your hair by using a wide-toothed comb or your fingers to pull it through from roots to tips. Cover your hair with a shower cap or plastic wrap. Let it sit for at least an hour or up to overnight. Apply gentle heat with a blow dryer on a low setting if you don't have time to let the mask sit overnight. This helps the product penetrate into the hair. Shampoo your hair as normal to wash it out. It may require a second shampoo to get rid of all the remaining residue. If you want to instantly brighten your hair and reduce frizz, make a quick homemade hair mask you can use right before shampooing. Wet your hair in the shower and apply your mask. At the end of your shower, shampoo it out. Try the following masks:  2 tablespoons honey One mashed banana or avocado 2 tablespoons plain yogurt 1 beaten egg A combination of any of the above For extra dry hair, applying a finishing oil will keep your hair from getting frizzy and...

Apply a small, quarter-sized amount of shampoo to your palms and work it into a lather. Then, apply the shampoo to your scalp and massage vigorously with your fingertips. Then, work the lather through your hair and rinse. Rinse hair thoroughly so no shampoo is left behind. Washing your hair should take about five minutes. Even though greasy hair looks and feels dirty, washing your hair every day will make your hair more greasy because shampoo strips hair of its nutrients and natural oils, causing your scalp to produce even more oil. Wash your hair every 2-3 days at the very most. This gives your hair enough time to replace the natural oils, so you're not producing an excess. If you usually shampoo your hair every day, it may take a few months for your scalp to stop overproducing oil after you change your shampoo habits. Use dry shampoo on the days you don't wash your scalp to help absorb excess oil as you transition. In addition to not shampooing every day, use a high-quality, gentle cleansing shampoo. Shampoos that are aggressive tend to irritate hair follicles, causing the scalp to produce more oil.  Common irritants include sulfates like sodium lauryl sulfate and sodium laureth sulfate, as well as silicones like dimethicone and cyclomethicone. You can find silicone and sulfate-free hair products in most drug stores, as well as specialty beauty and hair-care stores. Shampoos with salicylic acid, selenium sulfide, or ketoconazole are good for greasy hair. Salicylic acid helps reduce oil on the scalp. Oily hair does not need to be conditioned often. Condition every other time you wash or just once a week. Only use conditioner on the tips of your hair instead of the roots, where grease gathers more easily. Apply it by squeezing your conditioner into your palms and scrunching it into the ends of your hair. The best dry shampoos for greasy hair come in a powder form. Try not to use liquid dry shampoos. Massage the dry shampoo powder in your hair and on your scalp between washes to soak up grease and leave hair...

Apply a thorough coat of repellent to all sides of the pumpkin according to label instructions.  You may need to reapply the repellent every few days, especially after the rain. Many repellents are non-toxic since they are formulated to drive squirrels away rather than kill them. Most deer repellents will also be effective since squirrels and deers are driven off by many of the same scents. Look specifically for a repellent with large amounts of "putrescent whole egg solids." This is, essentially, rotten eggs. Squirrels typically hate the smell of rotten eggs. Be aware that many repellents can have a strong odor, especially immediately after application. The smell tends to dissipate as the spray dries, but in the meantime, you may need to place the pumpkin away from the house. The animosity between squirrel and dog is mutual, and many squirrels will stay away from an area if they smell a dog.  Dog hair is also effective at repelling deer. Cat hair may have a similar effect on squirrels, since larger cats can pose a threat to squirrels. It is best to use pet hair rather than pet waste. Cat waste is especially dangerous to use since it is a source of toxoplasmosis, a parasitic infection that can cause serious health concerns for pregnant women and people with immune deficiencies. Applying a coat of liquefied hot pepper, hot sauce, or powdered cayenne pepper can give the squirrels in your neighborhood a shock once they take a sniff or nibble.  Blend the hottest peppers you can find with enough water to form a liquid. Add a drop of dish soap and a drop of vegetable oil to help the solution stick and pour it into a spray bottle. Coat the pumpkin every few days with this solution to drive squirrels away. Rub a coat of commercial hot sauce over all sides of the pumpkin. You may need to reapply the sauce after a few days or after the rain, but the hot oils have a way of penetrating the skin and soaking into the flesh of the pumpkin. Create a scent barrier around your pumpkin by sprinkling powdered cayenne pepper...

Apply an antiseptic, such as rubbing alcohol or witch hazel on a cotton ball, to the bite. Then apply an ice pack  to reduce the swelling.  If you don't have an icepack, just wrap some ice in an elastic bandage or place it in a plastic bag. You can also use a bag of frozen vegetables.

Tripelennamin hydrochloride is another OTC drug, and similar to Diphenhydramine. Tripelennamin hydrochloride is taken orally. Hydroxyzine is prescription only. If your itching becomes severe and you need relief that OTC antihistamines can't give you, ask your doctor about Hydroxyzine, which works by reducing the natural histamines in the body.

Apply silicone caulk to any cracks around your windows and doors or along the foundation of your home.  Most spiders will sneak into a building through these various cracks and unintended openings. Sealing the cracks will prevent the spiders from coming in. You can purchase caulk from a hardware store. Follow the instructions provided on the label to prepare and apply the caulk correctly. When you apply the caulk, make sure that the cracks are completely filled and covered. These are the other types of passageways spiders use to invade your home.  Weather stripping and door sweeps will seal the gaps left at the bottom and sides of your doors and windows. Door sweeps are especially important because you cannot use caulk to cover the crack at the bottom of the doorway, making a properly fit door sweep your only means of cutting that path off from spiders.  A tight-fitting screen is also an essential tool. Spiders can slip in through the gaps left by loose screens, and so can many insects spiders like to feed on. Install screens over your windows and vents. Repair any holes in your screens as soon as you spot them. If you spot a hole in your screen, repair it or replace the screen. Otherwise, spiders and insects may find their way into your home through that hole. Spiders gravitated toward clutter inside a building as readily as they do outside a building.  Do not let piles of clothing, papers, towels, linens, or shoes sit on the floor. If you do leave a pile of clutter on the floor, shake out each piece of material as you clean the clutter up to shake off any unwelcome spiders. Spare clothing, holiday decorations, extra linens, and other objects that belong in long-term storage should be stored in sealed containers to prevent spiders from sneaking in.  Do not use cardboard boxes. If you must rely on cardboard boxes, however, cover all exposed openings with packing tape. Good storage methods are especially important for items stored in a dark basement or attic. Consider storing outdoor tools and sports equipment...

Apply some yucky tasting nibble inhibitor on your nails at least once a day.  Now when you bite your nails, it will taste nasty and you'll think twice about doing it again. Over time, using a nibble inhibitor can help you to break your nail biting habit for good. If you don't want to splurge on a specific nibble inhibitor product, try applying some hand sanitizer or cream that doesn't taste so good instead. However, you will need to apply this quite frequently. Covering up your nails can provide a physical barrier between your teeth and your fingertips, preventing you from biting.   Wear gloves. If the weather is cold, wearing gloves is a great way to hide your nails while also staying warm and stylish.  Wrap your fingers in adhesive bandages. If your nails are covered this way, you won't be able to get to them! This is a good technique for when you're sitting at home in the evenings, or in bed at night. Try to find new activities to replace your nail biting habit when you're feeling nervous or bored. For example:  Try chewing sugarless gum every time you want to bite your nails. This will give your mouth something else to do -- and will taste much better! Find something to play with like a coin or ball of putty -- this will keep your hands busy and away from your mouth! This is a good technique for in the car or while watching TV. Eat or drink something. Try carrying around a bottle of water or a bag of carrots sticks - then whenever you feel the urge to bite, you can simply take a drink or nibble on a carrot instead. Keeping your nails in good condition will make them stronger and prettier-looking, making them less prone to breakage and more difficult to break. Follow these tips for healthier nails:  Eat a healthy diet. A diet rich in nutrients, vitamins and minerals such as calcium, magnesium and fatty acids is beneficial for nails. Try eating lots of eggs, oily fish, fruit, leafy green vegetables and nuts. You could also try taking a supplement for healthy hair, skin and nails.      Keep your nails short....

Apply the tea tree oil directly onto either a bacterial or a fungal infection. The tea tree is naturally anti-bacterial and can help to kill an infection. For example, tea tree oil has been shown to reduce athlete's foot infections in clinical studies. You should do this for 15 minutes every day. The apple cider vinegar can be warm or cold. Use whatever temperature is most comfortable for you. Apple cider vinegar has documented antimicrobial properties, likely at least in part due to its acidic nature. Vinegar in general has been used for hundreds of years for its anti-infection properties. Crush two to three cloves of peeled garlic and mix with either olive oil, castor oil, or manuka honey, which also has anti-microbial properties. Put onto the infection and cover with a bandage.  Change the garlic daily. Garlic has natural antibiotic properties that make it helpful for fighting skin infections, such as staph. the toe in Epsom salts daily. Add about ½ cup of Epsom salts to three cups of warm water. Let your toe soak in the solution for 15 minutes, or until the water gets too cold. The high salt content can kill bacteria and fungal infections. Take equal parts Listerine and warm water and soak the toe daily. Listerine can help a simple infection because it contains menthol, thymol, and eucalyptol, which are all derived from various natural antibiotic sources. If you have a toenail fungus infection, a soak of 50/50 Listerine and white vinegar can help eliminate the infection.

Apply the toner first using a cotton ball, and the moisturizer using your fingers. The toner will help balance the pH of your skin. It will also help tighten pores and make them less noticeable. The moisturizer will help keep your skin feeling smooth and soft. It will also help prevent foundation (especially powder-based ones) from looking flaky.  If you have very sensitive skin, try using a rosewater-based toner, witch hazel, or an alcohol-free toner. This will make it sting less. If you have oily skin, consider using a lightweight or an oil-free moisturizer. This will help prevent any blending issues. Keep in mind, however, that the foundation may also wipe away the concealer. If you are using any other type of foundation, hold off on the concealer for now. Apply the concealer after you put on the foundation for the best coverage. If the foundation is pressed, sweep a makeup sponge across it. You can also swirl a powder brush across it. If the foundation is loose, lightly dip the brush into the powder. Gently tap the handle against the counter to shake away extra powder. Do not use the makeup sponge to apply loose powder. Shake the bottle first. This will help mix up the pigments inside the foundation. Then, pour out some foundation onto the back of your hand or onto a little dish. This will help prevent you from accidentally picking up too much foundation.  If you are using a makeup sponge, consider soaking the sponge in water first and then squeezing it to get rid of the excess water. This will keep the sponge from soaking up too much foundation and wasting it. Avoid using a powder brush with soft bristles. Try to get a foundation brush. It will have stiffer bristles that can hold the weight of the liquid foundation. You can also apply liquid foundation if you are in hurry. Use your fingers to help blend the foundation, as the heat from your fingers will warm the foundation and give you a smoother appearance. This will not give you full coverage, but it will give a nice, natural look. Cream foundation...

Applying cold to a swollen area can help reduce inflammation and pain. You can either wrap ice in a towel or use an ice pack and press it against the swollen areas on your face. Hold the ice pack against your face for 10 to 20 minutes. You can use an ice pack multiple times each day for up the 72 hours. Keeping the swollen area elevated can help reduce swelling, so keeping your head up can help. During the day, sit with your head upright. When you get ready for bed, position yourself so that your head will be elevated while you sleep. You can place pillows behind your back and head to angle your upper body back against the headboard. When your face is swollen, avoid hot things for at least 48 hours. Hot things can increase the swelling in your face and make the inflammation worse. This side effect of heat means you should avoid hot showers, hot tubs, hot baths, and/or hot packs. Turmeric is a natural remedy believed to help reduce inflammation. You can make a paste by adding turmeric powder or freshly ground turmeric to water. You can also mix turmeric with sandalwood, which also is supposed to help inflammation. Apply the paste on the swollen area of your face, making sure to avoid getting it in your eyes. Leave the paste on for around 10 minutes. Rinse it off. Then, press a rag covered with cold water on your face. Some facial swelling will go away on its own, especially if it is connected to minor injuries or allergies. You just have to be patient and deal with it until then. However, if it doesn’t change or get better within a few days, go to the doctor. If you are experiencing facial swelling, don’t take aspirin or other NSAIDs to help with any related pain. These types of over-the-counter pain relievers can cause your blood not to clot properly. This inability to clot can lead to bleeding as well as increased or prolonged swelling.

Applying ice or cold to your hickey in any form will help reduce the swelling. Here are some things to try:  A cold compress. Ice in a zip-lock bag. A cloth dipped in icy water. A cold spoon. Moisten a spoon with water and put it in the fridge for five minutes. In a pinch, grab a frozen item out of your freezer and hold it against your hickey. Leave it on for a while, then take a break, and apply the ice again. If you're feeling too much pain, put the ice away for a while.   Do not apply ice directly to the hickey. Make sure it is covered by a cloth, paper towel, or zip-lock bag. If you're using a spoon, you should place it in the freezer every five minutes to keep it cool, or keep a few cold spoons in the freezer to speed up the process.

Applying paste to a square cooler is a bit more challenging than a round one, because simply placing a dot and applying pressure will not result in full coverage. There are varying approaches that people claim allegiances to, so we’ll cover a few of the more popular ones:  The lines method – Place two thin lines of thermal compound on the base of the cooler. The lines should be parallel and spaced so that they are each placed a third of the width of the processor. The lines themselves should also be about a third of the processor’s width in length. The cross method – This is very similar to the previous method, but the lines are crossed in an “X” pattern instead of parallel. The length and thickness of the lines should be the same as the previous method. The spread method – This is one of the most popular and effective methods, but takes a little more effort. Place a small amount of thermal paste onto the base of the cooler. Using a plastic finger protector or a plastic bag, use your finger to spread the paste evenly across the surface. Make sure to cover the entire surface that will be in contact with the processor, and ensure that you do not apply the paste too thick. In most cases, the paste should barely hide the metal underneath. If you are using either of the line methods, apply even pressure to the heat sink as you install it to ensure that the paste covers the entire surface. If you are using the spread method, you MUST install the heat sink at a slight angle to prevent bubbles from forming. This is because the paste is usually spread too thin to compensate for bubbles after pressure is applied. The CPU fan wire should be plugged in the CPU fan socket because it mostly has the PWM function which allows the computer to adjust the fan speed automatically without changing voltage. Check that the fan is spinning. Enter the BIOS by pressing F1 or Del key during POST. Check if the temperature is normal, CPU temperature should be below 40 degree Celsius when idle, same for GPU.

Applying pressure to your gums with sterile gauze after pulling out a tooth can reduce pain and stop any bleeding that occurs. If your gums hurt or bleed a little after you pull out a tooth, then roll up a new piece of gauze and apply it to the tooth socket (gum area where the tooth was rooted). Apply pressure to the gums until the bleeding stops. The bleeding should stop within a few minutes. You can also use a wet teabag to soothe your gums after pulling out a tooth. Steep a teabag in hot water for a few minutes and then take it out and squeeze out some of the excess water. Then, let the teabag cool for a few minutes and apply it to your tooth socket to combat any pain that you feel. You can use green, black, peppermint, or chamomile tea to soothe your tooth. If the pain is still bothering you, then you can take a pain reliever such as acetaminophen or ibuprofen. Make sure that you read and follow the manufacturer’s instructions for use. If the loose tooth is causing you pain or if you just can’t seem to get it out, then call your dentist for an appointment. Your dentist can pull the tooth with the help of an anesthetic so that you will not feel any pain. In some cases, teeth may have a cyst or granuloma, which basically an infection, at the end of the root. Your dentist is the only person that can clean the socket and remove the infection, so you should consult them if you think this might be the case.

Approach your family member with kind feelings. Obviously, the feelings won't be the same as what you'd feel for a crush, a lover or a close friend (unless you and your family members are also friends). Continuing to talk while hugging is okay.  Where you place your hands is not important because the person you're hugging won't think it over too much. Press gently. You don't necessarily have to have hard contact. Stroke your hands quickly across the top of the other person's back. Smile when you let go.

Approaching someone at the wrong time can sabotage your chances before you really even get started.  Don’t try to start a conversation at an obviously bad time, like in the middle of a quiz or while the person is distracted by other things that seem to be commanding their attention. Realize that some people don’t like talking in certain situations. Some people don’t enjoy talking while riding the bus or wiping the cafeteria tables. If they don’t seem to warm up to your attempts to engage them in conversation, let it go. The adage that people like to talk about themselves turns out to be largely true. And questions are also great icebreakers.  If you don’t know how to start a conversation with someone, begin with a question like, “What’s the homework?” or “Who are you taking for biology?”  A good way to get closer to someone is to ask them questions about themselves. Ask questions about their hobbies, their family. their pets, etc. If they tell you about something they did or accomplished, ask them how they got into it and why. Key to getting to know someone is listening carefully to what they say.  Show that you’re giving them your full attention by holding eye contact, nodding your head, and pitching in small comments here and there to show you’re following the thread of the conversation. As you ask the other person questions, listen carefully to their answers to find out what the person is most interested in or passionate about. If one topic doesn’t elicit much of a response from them, don’t keep asking more questions about it. Instead, move on to another topic. Once you find a topic the other person seems excited about or has more to say about, ask follow-up questions and pitch in your own thoughts to keep the conversation going. People feel more at ease when you mirror their body language--subtly. Don’t pantomime their every movement, just subtly adopt similar body postures.  If they’re leaning forward, do the same.

Approximately half an inch (1 cm) from the spine of the book, use a utility knife to cut into the cover's book cloth on both the front and the back. Avoid cutting along the hinges, as these connect the cover to the text block. You can then take the bone folder and gently pry the spine off of the book. Either measure the spine that you just removed, or measure the space between the hinges on your textblock. Cut a piece of cardboard or Bristol board to match this measurement. Select a sturdy piece of cotton or linen fabric that matches the current cover of your book. Measure it to equal the size of the spine, and then add an additional inch to the length and two inches to the width. Cut the fabric out in this shape. Cover the back of your spine with book binding glue, and center it over the book cloth. Cut the corners of the fabric off at 45 degree angles, and add glue to the bottom edge of the board. Fold the top and bottom of the book cloth over and press it into the spine. Using the utility knife, chip away as much of the old spine's glue as you can from the text block. You want the new spine to have a clean start, so make sure it sticks by properly preparing the space it will fit. Place the book with the spine edge facing up. Use bricks to hold it in place. Glue a spine liner paper to the pages of the book. Put glue on the exposed book cloth of the new spine. Carefully drape the new spine over the book.  Starting from the spine, push the book cloth onto the cover. Use a bone folder to remove any air bubbles. Wrap the book cloth around the top and bottom of the original cover. Place the finished book into a book press overnight to dry. Place a piece of waxed paper inside the cover to prevent the pages from sticking.

Archivists and conservator-restorers are professionals who specialize in preserving historical artifacts, including paper. They should be able to flatten and preserve all paper materials at a high quality, including watercolors, old or fragile paper, and other objects that can be difficult to safely flatten at home. Search online for document archival services in your area, or ask a librarian for hep finding one. As mentioned in the other methods, wetting the paper, or "humidifying" it, can help remove wrinkles caused by torn and displaced fibers. Archivists often use special tools and extreme care to increase the humidity of the paper significantly. If you are brave, and have a few test pieces of paper to try out first, you can try to mimic some of these at home before pressing your paper. One of the easiest might be the "Horton Humidifier" method. Place the rolled-up paper in a plastic cup, open to the air. Place the cup in a plastic garbage can, add water to the bottom of the can, and close the garbage can lid. This can cause mold growth on the paper, which is difficult to treat at home. Some archivists use anti-fungal chemicals such as thymol or ortho-phenyl phenol, but these materials can be highly dangerous to the user and the paper if used incorrectly. One archivist's tool is widely available for commercial sale. Purchase archival-quality plastic envelopes to keep your important documents, family history, and other papers safe for decades if not centuries, protecting them from moisture and ultraviolet light.

Are homes cheap right now or expensive? Try searching for a graph of household income to home prices and see whether the city in which you're searching has a high ratio relative to other cities. Note that some cities like New York and San Francisco may be historically immune to such ratios. Talk with a real estate agent, or several agents, about the relative price of homes. Even if you don't get a definitive answer (it's tough to gauge whether the housing market is cheap or expensive, as the information is not always clear), you may get leads on specific markets to watch for or even homes that are steals. This information is valuable. Is a second home still a safe investment without rent padding the list of expenses? If it's not, you should seriously question buying a second home. Too many families buy a second home that's too expensive, betting that they'll be able to rent when they're not occupying the second home. When renting becomes unfeasible, impossible, or generates much less than anticipated, the homeowners are left with a failing investment. Add up all the likely expenses of owning a home. Can you fit these expenses into your budget with room to spare? Yes, you'll be building equity in your second home, but if investing in a second home leaves you severely cash-strapped each month, you may be better off waiting until you've paid off your first mortgage, for example. Here are some likely expenses to consider:   Property taxes. Different from state to state; the average annual property tax in Los Angeles is $1,200 for a $100k home, or 1.2%. If property taxes are inordinately high in the town you are considering, investigate the mill rate (real estate taxes) in neighboring towns. You could save a lot of money in real estate taxes simply by purchasing a home in a town close to your preferred location that doesn’t have a high tax burden. Basic utilities. These should be much lower if the house goes unoccupied for large portions of the year, but should not go overlooked. Upgrading/upkeep expenses. A house...

Are they confident in their habits? Do they display distinct qualities that most people do not possess? Do you know the person rather well? If so, this person may be a good candidate for analysis. On the other hand, does the person tend to act like everyone else? Is the person shy? Is the person quiet? Think about people you know very well and compare this person to them. Consider many personality traits, physical traits, and how they respond to stress. Compare this information to people that you know intimately to help you guess their sign. It is especially important to observe their behavior while they are in conflicts or while working in groups. We all learn to hide our inner feelings to some degree while in public. People usually display their astrological traits in relationships and tense interactions.  For example, Aries' first reaction when faced with conflict is to yell or threaten, Gemini will talk his/her way out of it, Cancer usually responds with an emotional outburst, Taurus responds to conflict with silence and a posture of strength, etc. Cardinal (Aries, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn): These people usually responds to conflict with a bold, decisive, instinctive action in an attempt to trump the assault. They are easily motivated to start tasks. Fixed (Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, Aquarius): These people tend to hold in their reaction and respond that the attempt to hurt them was futile, with passive aggressive behavior or with silence. They concentrate on finishing things well. Mutable (Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, Pisces): These people tend to be artful with conflicts, and are known to try to avoid arguments. They are good at motivating people. Aries is considered the youngest, while Pisces is the oldest. The younger signs tend to display quick tempers and be more selfish and eager to learn while the older signs are wiser, more compassionate and more set in their ways.

Are you a morning person? A night-owl? Maybe just after lunch is your peak period. Find the time in the day that you're at your best and structure your life around that fact. There's no sense in pretending to be an early riser if you crave the 3am study session in your soul. Listen to yourself and do what works. Creating a plan for yourself helps to eliminate distracting thoughts and stress. Compartmentalize each thing you need to do in a given day, trying to anticipate how much time you'll need to accomplish it. Try to leave in some wiggle room in case you end up needing more time to bash out a draft of your paper, or more time to prepare for that presentation at work. Try your best to do one thing at one time. When it's time to eat breakfast and read the paper, just eat breakfast and read the paper. You don't have to worry about studying for that English essay if you know you're going to study for it at 4:30, after you get off work and before you meet up for dinner. It's best if you can help to remind yourself why you're doing what you're doing to help keep you on track and remind yourself of the bigger picture. Remember your long term goals, and how the little things you do fit into your larger plan for yourself. One of the most nagging distractions when you're trying to sit down to study trig notes might be, "Why am I doing this? I should be out partying and living my life!" In those moments, it's helpful to remind yourself why you're studying: "I've got to pass this class so I can get my degree and go to grad school and become the most powerful pediatric neurosurgeon in Whitman County. My plan is in effect." Take time for an evil laugh, then get back to it. Monotony can be its own distraction. Learn when you're getting bored of the same old, same old.

So you don't have to do one housework thing after another, alternate studying and housework, or throwing in some exercise. Don't answer all your emails at once, answer a few,...

Are you engaging in more date-like activities, or are you on the buddy system? Taking a long hard look at how you hang out can help you understand his real intentions. Here are some things to consider:  Are you doing couple-y things together without being a couple? Do you find yourself grocery shopping, cooking dinner together, or even going to the Farmer's Market with one grocery bag? These may be signs that he sees you as a girlfriend already. When you hang out, are you hanging solo or with a big group of people? This may indicate if he wants to see you a more than a friend.  If he invites his ten best friends or entire fraternity to join you when you hang out, he may not see you as more than a friend. But pay attention--if he only invites other couples to join you, he probably wants to pair off with you. But if he invites his siblings, best friends, or if (yikes!) you somehow end up meeting his parents, this is a sure-fire sign that he wants you to be a serious part of his life. You can tell a lot about what he really thinks by considering how often and for how long you hang out.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, overworked, or stressed out over something? Stress can cause an increase in acne, so monitor those things that are making you feel overwhelmed and try to find a way to cut them out of your life or reduce their impact to better your health.  When you are stressed your body releases stress hormones including cortisol, which triggers an increase in skin's oil production, leading to increased acne.   Getting adequate sleep can also lower stress levels. When you lose an hour of sleep your risk of psychological stress increases by 14%. Imagine losing four hours of sleep in one night--- that increases your chances by over 50%! Try to aim for seven hours of sleep so that you don't run the risk of developing acne from stress related to inadequate rest. Your diet is one of the most important parts of keeping clean skin. If you are eating a lot of fatty, greasy foods, or junk food, your skin is going to react to that food and be prone to more breakouts. Pay attention to the type of food you have been eating and see if it correlates to your breakouts on your face. A diet that is high in refined sugars, also known as a high glycemic index diet, can also cause breakouts, so read nutritional labels and try to avoid foods that are high in these sugars. Although there are a lot of foods that worsen your skin, there are also a lot of foods that can benefit your skin, giving it the proper nutrients that it needs to maintain hydration and stay healthy. Some great things to focus on when choosing foods for your diet are:  Selenium -- It's a mineral that helps protect your skin from gaining free radicals that can cause wrinkling, dryness, and some diseases. You can find these minerals in foods like Brazilian nuts, shrimp, lamb, tuna, salmon, whole wheat pasta, light turkey, and cooked beef. Antioxidants--These also prevent free radicals from entering your body. Colorful fruits and vegetables like berries, tomatoes, spinach, beets, squash, and sweet potatoes all have antioxidants.

Are you going to be bathing in champagne in the claw-foot tubs of a five-star hotel? Or are you going to be roughing it in hostels with a stub of bread in your pocket? A large part of how much a vacation costs is what you decide to spend. Take an hour or two to figure out how much your trip would cost you and your companions. This should include airfare or gasoline costs.  Always add some wiggle room, overestimating rather than underestimating. There are always costs you don't foresee or things you want to do that you haven't accounted for. If the trip is more than you are willing to spend, make cuts where you can. If it ultimately means cutting the trip short, so be it. Let's say you figure your trip will cost $1,500, including airfare.  It's six months away. That means you have to save $250 a month for the next six months in order to meet the costs of your trip. Here are a few ideas where you can start saving:  Ditch that daily sugary latte. If you get a $4 coffee drink three times a week, that's $12 a week, and about $50 a month. That's $300 in six months right there. Eat from home more. Restaurants are great, but they're expensive. If you cook at home, you can save money not only because it's cheaper, but because you'll have leftovers that can last you days. Quit the luxuries for a while. That last drink on Saturday night? Pass. A movie next week? Nope. Heck, cable? Who needs it when you have Netflix? Take a look at what little things are fun, but that you could live without. If you plan ahead, you can save on prices by doing your research and searching around for deals, either for flights or for accommodation. Search online for things to do and travel tips to and around the destination you're visiting. In your learning, you'll know what to search for when looking for deals – like museum passes, hotel discounts, transportation deals, etc. And when you find those deals, nab 'em.  It is said that you should book airfare around two months out for the best deals – this is that happy place where airlines start...

Are you going to break up with him because he's not treating you right, because you've lost interest, or because you're both too busy to make it work? Whatever your reason, you have to figure out exactly what you're going to say and how you're going to say it. If it's something like you falling out of love or falling for someone else, then you can find a nice way of ending it that would cause the least damage. Though honesty is important, you don't have to tell him everything if it would only hurt him. If you've fallen out of love, you may not want to be so blunt about it. You don't want him to completely break down if it comes as a shock. Though you shouldn't be too obvious about it, you don't want to throw your man completely off guard with the breakup. That means that he shouldn't think that everything is peachy keen the day before the break up, or even the week before. Once you've made up your mind, you should break up with him as soon as possible, but if you have to wait a few days to do it, then try to act more cold and distant in the meantime. Don't tell him how much you love him, or kiss him or act affectionate with him. Don't be a coward and send him a note, email, text, or phone call. Unless you're in a long distance relationship or he has a reputation for being violent when he gets bad news, you owe him the courtesy of meeting him in person one last time. If you don't do it in person, he'll reach out to you anyway, and you'll have to rehash the same painful conversation, but it won't be on your terms as much. If you don't do it in person, he will hold it against you after the relationship is over. It's important to break up with the boy as soon as you can  after making your decision. That being said, you shouldn't go and break up with him the second you you know it, or you might end up blurting it out in public or at an inopportune moment. Just pick a time when you'll be alone and will have some privacy, but nowhere romantic so he won't get the wrong idea.  Don't go to one of your favorite...

Are you hoping to get someone special to notice you? Draw a mysterious stranger into your life? Dispel negativity from a wounded relationship? Spice up a lackluster love life? Make your interactions with the universe at large more loving? The most important part of manifestation, so get a very clear picture in your mind of what you’d like to accomplish.  Think very carefully about the potential drawbacks of your intention. If, for example, you intend to attract your ideal mate, think about whether or not you’re at a place in your life where you can enter into such a relationship. If you’d like to work your magic on someone you don’t know that well, brace yourself for the possibility that (s)he won’t be as interesting or attractive in real life as they seem from afar. Remember the rule of three.  According to the Wiccan Rede, “All good that a person does to another returns three-fold in this life; harm is also returned threefold.”  Encourage love by sending it out freely. Stay away from intentions that involve dominating, manipulating or in some way controlling another person.  Those kinds of intentions leave you open to receiving the same in turn. For example, instead of manifesting a nurturing, mutually supportive and satisfying relationship, you could draw to yourself someone who is wildly possessive and extremely jealous. Exactly what you choose and in what combination should be based on the kind of love you want to attract.  Start by emphasizing colors.  Red, for example, is the color most closely associated with passion and lust.  Pink is also a heart color but is considered to be more nurturing.  White speaks of innocence and would be appropriate for a platonic relationship.  Green's association is with nature and might be used to promote virility. Choose candles, clothes, papers, flowers, or other objects in a color(s) whose associations fit your needs. Integrate herbs into the spell.  According to herb lore, balm and catnip can be used to attract love, and marjoram can be used to dispel negativity and...

You can do light pruning or remove dead wood at any time, but if you have larger goals, you'll want to plan your pruning around the seasons. For instance, pruning in the winter will result in an explosion of growth during the spring. Pruning during the summer will slow the growth of the cut branch, so it's a good strategy if you're trying to shape your tree or slow the growth of branches you don't want. Spend a few moments looking at the tree's size and shape and imagining how it should look when you are finished. " Avoid removal of these branches. Whether they were damaged by a storm or some other event, broken branches should be pruned so that the water and nutrients they're still taking from the tree get redistributed to healthy branches. Remove branches that cross, then open the plant so that air might circulate and light reach all parts of the plant. In order for trees to grow healthy, they need good air circulation through and around the branches. Branches that are close together foster the growth of fungus and attract more insects. Eliminate branches that are growing inward, toward the center of the tree. These cause clutter and are not healthy. Whether they're low branches blocking your walkway or higher branches threatening your telephone wires, rubbing your roof, or overhang your house. It's fine to prune the branches that are causing some type of annoyance. If you'd like your tree to have a more rounded or neat looking shape, prune a few branches that seem to stick out at odd angles; a few cuts will make a big difference. Each cut you make compromises the tree protection system and opens the tree to potential fungus and insect infestation. Prune only as much as you absolutely need to prune, and never remove more than 25 percent of a tree's branches.  For most...

Are your fingers long, your hands narrow? Do you have perfect cuticles and nicely-shaped nails? Small knuckles? Those are wonderful signs that you have good looking hands. Make sure you have a smooth, even complexion. Don't assume makeup will, well, make up for your imperfections. Birthmarks, freckles, moles, scars, crooked fingers, and irregularly shaped nails will severely limit your progress as a hand model. Pay special attention to your thumb; it'll play a huge role in many hand shots, so it needs to be good-looking. Here are some other things to consider:  Inspect the back of your hand. If you're a woman, it needs to be narrow.  Though women are more often hand models than men, men can be hand models too. Just make sure you don't have hairy knuckles. Don't get discouraged, though. There are a number of different types of hand modeling looks such as beauty, mommy, product, and older hands. This is just as important as having nice-looking hands. Can you hold an object for an extended period of time without leaning on anything and without shaking? Any movement will translate into blurry pictures, so if you find that you can't keep your hands steady, modeling might not be the best use for them. Shooting TV commercials or ads for your hands can take several hours. A  30 second spot can take upwards of 12 hours to shoot and you have to be ready at all times and prepared to do take after take of small actions. If you want to be a hand model, then you have to prepare to hold your hands in the exact same position for hours on end. This means that you have to deal well with boredom and have really, really steady hands. If you're addicted to caffeine or chocolate, you may have to curb your addiction, because these things will only make your hands shake more. You can even practice holding your hands steady for long periods of time so you'll be more comfortable when the time comes. Patience and the ability to always hit your mark can be the most important thing. Once the camera and lights are set, you have to be able...

Areas of your backyard or porch may have spots where rainwater can pool. Barrels and trash cans tend to collect rainwater extremely well. Old tires, empty bottles, buckets, and other small containers can condense water vapor into tiny pools. Empty and drain all pools of water and cover them up to prevent more water from gathering. When you water your plants, the excess water will run through the soil and collect in a pan. If you have any outdoor plants, these collection pans are a prime location for mosquitoes to breed. Empty and clean the pans at least once a week, preferably more frequently. If you have a bird bath outside your house, the stagnant water is a perfect place for mosquitoes to lay eggs. Minimize mosquitoes breeding there by changing the water and scrubbing down the bath at least once a week, preferably more frequently. Plumbing that runs outside can be affected by exposure to the weather, resulting in minor leaks. Window air conditioners often drip condensation, which can pool on the ground. Dripping outdoor faucets also pool on the ground. Repair these problems to minimize water collection as much as possible. If you have a small plastic pool meant to be used temporarily, make sure you drain all of the water and store it indoors when it's not in use. If you have a backyard swimming pool, monitor the chlorine levels regularly and keep the pool clean. If they are filled with debris, they will trap water during the next rainfall instead of letting it drain. Mosquitoes will then breed in this standing water. Standing water is the number one breeding spot for mosquitoes. Sometimes, it is nearly impossible to find all bodies of standing water and draining them. However, there are a few precautions you can take to prevent water from building up. Here are some tips to get you started:  Get rid of any unused pots or bins or turn them upside down, so they don't collect water. Keep trash and recycling bins covered. If you can't, try drilling drain holes into the bottom of them. Keep a fine-mesh screen...

Arguments based on logic, sometimes referred to as “logos” in the study of arguing, use examples and ideas which are rooted in simple, direct reasoning. These kinds of arguments are especially helpful when debating with someone who considers themselves smart and logical. They are also good for topics that are “serious” in nature, like politics and economics.  Try to use facts, statistics, and real life examples to make logical arguments.  An example argument would be: “Evidence has shown that rates of teen pregnancy have decreased as more comprehensive sex education has become mandatory in schools. You can see in this chart….” Arguments based on emotions, sometimes referred to as “pathos” in the study of arguing, use appeals to people’s heart and emotions. These kinds of arguments are especially helpful when debating with someone who is prone to strong emotions (showing heightened joy and easily visible sadness). They are also good for topics that are “human” in nature, like arguments about social justice, discrimination, or current events with great tolls on society (like the Israeli-Palestinian conflict).  Try to draw on people’s hopes and fears. Use personal stories and try to make a personal connection with either your opponent or your audience by comparing the situation to something that is close to them. An example argument would be: “Backing out now would pose an infinitely greater danger to us than if we stayed and tried to fix the problem. Untold lives could be lost if we leave but if we stay, then we can save lives.” Arguments based on authority, sometimes referred to as “ethos” in the study of arguing, use appeals to your authority and credibility or that of another who supports your ideas. These kinds of arguments are especially helpful when debating with someone who is not as experienced in the field or who has a particularly weak argument. They are also good for topics that are “academic” in nature, like arguments about medicine, science, or history.  Try to establish your credentials and...

Around a quarter of the human body cells are red blood cells, or erythrocytes. These RBCs are developed in the bone marrow produced at approximately 2.4 million red blood cells per second.  Erythrocytes circulate in the body for 100 to 120 days. It is the same reason why we can only donate blood once every 3 to 4 months. Men have an average of 5.2 million RBCs per cubic millimeter meanwhile 4.6 million in women. If you are a regular blood donor, you’ll notice that there are more men who passed the blood donation screening than women. The iron-rich protein known as hemoglobin is the main component of the red blood cells. It is responsible for the red color as iron binds with oxygen. Each hemoglobin molecule has four iron atoms and each of which binds to 1 oxygen molecule with 2 oxygen atoms. Around 33% of an erythrocyte is hemoglobin normally 15.5 g/dL in men and 14 g/dL in women. Red blood cells play an important role in transporting oxygen-rich blood from the lungs to the tissues and cells. RBCs have cell membranes composed of lipids and proteins essential for physiological function while working within the capillary network through the circulatory system.  In addition, red blood cells aid in the removal of carbon dioxide. They contain the carbonic anhydrase enzyme which allows for a reaction of water and carbon dioxide to form carbonic acid and separate hydrogen and bicarbonate ions. Hydrogen ions bind with hemoglobin while bicarbonate ions go to the plasma removing approximately 70% of carbon dioxide. Twenty percent of carbon dioxide binds with hemoglobin which then released in the lungs. Meanwhile, the remaining 7% gets dissolved in the plasma.

Arrange the cod fillets in a single layer in a microwave-safe 11- by 7-inch (28- by 18-cm) baking dish. Cover the dish with a lid, paper towel, or microwave-safe plastic wrap.  Keep the cod in a single layer in the baking dish. Do not stack the fillets since doing so will cause them to cook unevenly. If this dish is too large for your microwave oven, you may need to cook the cod in batches in a smaller dish. With the dish still covered, cook the cod for 6 minutes on full power. If your microwave does not have a rotating tray, pause the cooking process at the 3-minute mark and turn the dish 180 degrees before you continue cooking. Remove the baking dish from the microwave and uncover. Pour the broth and lemon juice into the dish and use a fork or spatula to flip the fillets over, coating both sides. Sprinkle the top of each fillet with the pepper and parsley. If desired, you could use other seasonings, like 1/4 tsp (1.25 ml) garlic powder, along with the pepper and parsley. Cover the dish once more and cook the fish for another 4 to 5 minutes, until it becomes opaque and can be easily flaked with a fork. If the microwave does not have a rotating tray, pause the cooking process halfway through and turn the dish 180 degrees before finishing the cooking process. Wait 5 minutes before transferring the cooked cod fillets onto individual serving platters.

Arrange them by date so that the one you are having first comes at the top, then your next exam, then the next etc.  Read the syllabus that comes with your classes.  By the time finals roll around, your time is precious -- every minute counts. Which is why scheduling is essential during the weeks (er, days) prior to exams. So as not to go totally bonkers during this stressful time, make a realistic study schedule for yourself, too. Leave yourself time for breaks -- you'll be taking them anyway -- and be sure to prioritize according to which class you'll need to study for the most. The syllabus is one of the most important papers your professor will give you. Hold onto it! Use it when you're studying for your finals as a sort of outline. It may also make it clear what topics your instructor finds interesting and important -- certain topics may pop up more than others and those are definitely the ones to crack down on. Do you have to study just words?  If yes, type them out in a word processor and print them. The words you already know should not be on the list. Make absolutely sure that you know them before you take them off the list! Repeat every word 10 times and you will remember. Go through your notes and highlight major vocabulary words and concepts (in different colors!). Manipulate the material to your liking. Create charts and index cards to help yourself study. Make cards in different categories -- some for terms and/or concepts, some for formulas, and some for specific quotes from reading assignments. And if they're in your class, all the better (for them and you). However, make sure it's someone who's serious about studying -- goofing off together won't be very productive. A friend is beneficial if you can stay focused. Take turns explaining terms and concepts to each other. Odds are if you can explain it to someone else (and they can follow), you have a good grasp on the material and that'll show up on the exam. Study in a quiet place that has a nice chair you won't hesitate to spend large chunks...

Arrange these hardier vegetables at the bottom of the slow cooker in even layers. Onions are less likely to stick to the sides of the slow cooker as much as many of the other ingredients might. Moreover, as fragrant vegetables, the aroma and flavor of the onions can seep upward and into the less dense, more permeable ingredients. If you cannot fit the brisket in as a whole piece, cut it into two pieces and rearrange as needed to make it fit. Scatter the celery and carrots over the beef in even layers. These are the only vegetables you should add at this point. Do not add the cabbage yet. It cooks too quickly and will disintegrate if cooked for the full time. Drizzle the ale or beer over the beef and vegetables in the slow cooker. Sprinkle evenly with the spice blend.  Make sure that the ale completely covers the meat in the slow cooker. If it does not, add just enough water to bring the level of the liquid up to the top of the brisket. Use the spice blend provided in this article, or, if you would prefer, you could also use a pre-made pickling spice blend or the spice blend that usually comes with the corned beef brisket. Leave the lid on the entire 7 hours.  If you do not have a full 7 hours, you could cook the corned beef and vegetables on high for 4 hours, instead.  Keeping the lid on is crucial. Crock Pots and other slow cookers work by building up heat, and when you remove the lid, you let a portion of that heat escape. This could lengthen the overall cooking time. Arrange the cabbage wedges in an even layer across the top of the slow cooker. Cover again and cook on low for another hour, until the cabbage becomes tender.  Alternatively, you could switch the slow cooker to high and cook the cabbage and other ingredients for only 20 to 30 minutes longer. You do not need to stir the ingredients previously in the slow cooker before adding the cabbage. Simply rest the cabbage on top, spreading it out as evenly as possible. Transfer the cooked corned beef and vegetables to serving plates while still hot. Pour...

Arrange your shrimp on a microwave-safe plate, keeping them separated in a single layer without any overlap. Add a splash of water to the dish and then cover it with plastic wrap. Microwave your shrimp on high heat for one to two minutes.  If your shrimp aren't hot enough, you can microwave them for an additional 30 seconds or so. Microwaved shrimp will be very hot, so it's important to let them cool before serving them. If your shrimp has already been seasoned, steaming helps preserve the flavor. Fill a pot with water and place a steamer or colander inside the pot. Place your shrimp in the steamer or colander. Then, place the pot over the stove and bring the water to a boil. Let the shrimp cook until they start to smell fragrant. Avoid stacking shrimp too high in the steamer and make sure they don't touch the water. If your shrimp are coated with breading or coconut, they're best reheated in the oven. Wrap the shrimp loosely in foil and place them on a baking tray. Cook the shrimp for 15 minutes at 300 degrees Fahrenheit (about 149 degrees Celsius). Add enough oil to coat the bottom of a skillet or frying pan and place it over the stove. Add your shrimp in an even layer. Cook the shrimp for two to three minutes on each side.

Arranging some reliable transport is a necessary step. It's very important there isn't any question of how you're going to get to school on your first day; things are going to be stressful enough as it is, and you don't want a simple mix-up to get in the way. There are a few likely ways you can get to school:  If you live close enough, you can always walk or ride a bicycle to school. It's also a good way to exercise and encourage some oxygen flow before your day. Walking or bike riding will help your stress if you're feeling anxious at all. You can ask your parents to drive you. Even if they won't always be able to drive you, getting a quick ride over will help make the day as smooth as it can be. Most schools operate some kind of bus service. Taking one of these buses will bring you right to the school, and you might make some friends on the way! Joining a carpool is a good option, and a safer bet than constantly relying on your parents. Public transport is also another option, which can save time and money. When you go back to school, you won't have as much time for things like cleaning. Give your room a good tidying; that way, you'll have something clean and relaxing to come home to at the end of the day. Especially if you're worried about making a good first impression, choosing the right outfit on your first day can be a nerve-wracking experience! Luckily, you should have lots of time to choose the day before. Find your favourite clothes and lay them neatly beside your bed. That way, you won't be in a rush trying to figure out what to wear.  Any fashion advice depends purely on you at your personality. Ideally, you'll want to wear something casual, comfy, and clean. If you haven't done so already, it's a good idea to give your outfit a wash in the laundry. If your school enforces a uniform policy, there are still things you can do to accessorize. Adding buttons or frills to a uniform can give it some zest. Just make sure you're not breaking any policy rules by modifying it! Be sure to follow your...

Artichokes can be eaten warm, at room temperature, or cold, but most people generally prefer to eat them hot and freshly steamed. Let the artichokes rest just long enough for them to cool. Otherwise, you may burn your fingertips as you try to enjoy them. Use your fingers to peel each outer petal off one at a time.  The petals or leaves of the artichoke should peel away without much difficulty. If there is any resistance, the artichoke may not have been cooked long enough. Peel each petal off by grabbing the tip between your fingers and pulling it down and away from you. Melted butter and mayonnaise are two of the most common condiments to serve artichokes with, but the choice of sauce is simply a matter of preference.  For a simple yet zingy twist, mix a dash of balsamic vinegar into a little mayonnaise and use that for a dipping sauce. (balsamic and mayonnaise) When you dunk each petal into the sauce, dip the white, fleshy end in. This is the end that was closest to the center of the artichoke. Grip the other end of the petal and place the dipped side into your mouth. Bite down, slightly, and pull the leaf through your teeth to remove and eat the soft part of the leaf.  After consuming the soft part of the petal, discard the rest of it. Continue peeling and eating the petals in this manner until all the petals have been stripped from the artichoke. Once the leaves have been removed, use a knife or metal spoon to scrape out the fuzzy "choke," or center, of the artichoke. The artichoke heart is hidden beneath the choke. Cut the artichoke heart into pieces using a kitchen knife and dip it into melted butter, mayonnaise, or your preferred sauce. Eat the pieces of heart whole. This finishes off the artichoke.

Artificial insemination (AI) is often used to encourage desirable qualities in breeds and eliminate undesirable ones. It's often used to preserve rare breeds, and is a good alternative when your best mating option lives at a great distance. Sperm is collected from the sire, checked by a vet for activity and quantity of sperm, then stored. It may be chilled if insemination will happen within a few hours, or frozen in liquid nitrogen, in which case it can keep for years. The mate is then impregnated, ideally around the time she ovulates. The sperm is transferred into her reproductive tract using a long soft rubber tube. Ideally the sperm is placed close to her cervix, which is where natural mating would deposit it.  You can purchase artificial insemination kits online or in pet stores.  Keep in mind that artificial insemination still has not reached the same success level as natural breeding. Expect a 65% to 85% success rate, with better results for smaller litters. If your female is a long-haired breed, there's a chance her fur might interfere with the mating process. To guard against that and prevent wasted time during your ovulation window, consider shaving the hair under her tail to improve your chances. Taking a male outside of his normal environment can cause insecurity and distraction for him. This, in turn, might make it difficult for him to successfully impregnate the female dog. To avoid this problem, set up a breeding area somewhere he's comfortable. This should be a private, enclosed space at the sire’s home, ideally outside, where they can breed without distraction. Normally, only two handlers should be present — preferably you and the owner of the other dog. Don’t bring in any strangers who might distract the dogs. The mating process should not be rushed — let them get to know one another. The dogs may need several hours or days to get comfortable in each other's company. The time length can vary based on a dog's previous breeding experience, disposition, and the timing of the breeding attempts....

As Socrates said, "The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing." It's difficult to fully grasp this concept until you're faced with a life situation that completely stumps you. No matter how smart you are, and how many experiences you've had, you'll encounter times when the line between right and wrong seems fuzzy and you aren't sure what choice to make.  Don't go into a new situation presuming that you know just what to do. Examine the problem from all angles, meditate or pray, and then act according to your conscience. It's all you can do. Accepting your limitations is a high form of wisdom. Know what you have to work with and use your talents to the fullest, but don’t pretend you have more than you do. Take as much time as you need to deliberate on a problem before making a decision. Think about the pros and cons, taking your experience as well as others’ advice into account, so you make the wisest possible choice. Looking to people, religious tenets and books for advice and wisdom will only get you so far. Don't just accept a set of values because that's what you were taught. Ultimately, your values should be aligned with your conscience, that gut feeling that tells you what to do based on what you know to be true.  When you have a big decision to make, call up your values and stick to them.  For example, let's say there's a person at work who's getting bullied, and you know sticking up for him will make your boss angry. What's the right thing to do? Think carefully and decide what's most important to you: keeping your job or helping someone who's hurting. Stand up for your values in the face of criticism. This is no easy task, since throughout life people will tell you what they want you to do. Separate your values from those of other people and do what you know is right, no matter what. Even a carefully considered decision can end up being the wrong one. Each time you have a new experience, reflect on it and think about what went well and what didn't. When you realize you’ve made a mistake, see...

As a cat owner, it's important to know your cat's normal behavior. This will help you to assess whether something is wrong. Look for changes in behavior, including, but not limited to, changes in eating patterns, types of movement, and interest in socializing.  These can be the signs of a variety of illnesses, including physical trauma. If your cat's personality or behavior has changed drastically, and you can't figure out why, take it to a veterinarian. These changes could be symptoms of a medical problem. If you heard a cat fight, or your cat comes back limping, then check the cat over for signs of trauma. A tell-tale sign of a fight are tufts of hair that are clumped together. Look at the cat and check to see if any areas of the coat look unkempt or are sticking up at an odd angle. Gently investigate the cat's body by parting the fur and looking at the skin underneath. Alternatively you may find an area of hair loss, where the aggressor cat pulled the fur out. The area may have a wound, or you might see spots of blood or see a swollen area. This is easiest to spot on white or pale coated cats. For a black cat, gently run your hands over it and watch for a reaction to tenderness, or feel for a wound, swelling, or scabs. You may not always witness a fight or see the signs of a fight on your cat's coat. This is why it is important to regularly inspect your cat for injuries that you might otherwise miss. This is especially important to do if your cat is an outdoor cat, and if it's prone to fighting.  A good time to do this is when you are snuggling and petting the cat. Keep the cat calm and gently sweep your hand over the body while looking at the skin beneath the fur. Older wounds may be infected, in which case you may find swelling, a scab, hair loss, or a bloody or purulent discharge. Old abscesses that have burst often contain a lot of pus which mats the fur. Also, the skin over the abscess dies off and can leave a considerable hole behind, through which you can see muscle or exposed tissues.

As a general rule of thumb, do not get married immediately after the engagement is announced. Instead, enjoy being engaged for a little while. With any luck, it is the only time you will ever be engaged in your life. Once you both agree on a day, find a justice of the peace, notary public, or other legally-empowered person to perform your marriage. Call ahead and set up an appointment; it will give him or her something pleasant to expect. Arrive to the site of your ceremony early and bring at least one witness along. Dress up or not as you want it: Only the two of you, the master of the ceremony, and your witness(es) will be there to see. Follow the lead of the official and exchange vows. Kiss your spouse when you are finished. You can choose to get a marriage license the same day you get married, in most cases; fees vary by state, but are not usually very expensive. The license gives you legal proof of your marriage for tax and other purposes. Once you have it, it is unnecessary to renew it.
