Warming up your neck muscles before stretching will help prevent muscle tightness and pain. Gently stretch your neck by rolling your head to each side. Start with your head leaning toward the right, then gently lower your head in front of you. Continue around until your head leans to the left.  Repeat the exercise, gently rolling your head from side to side. Anytime you are stretching your neck, be very careful not to go too far. Use slow, gentle movements. Called a cervical flexion stretch, moving your head to the front and back can help realign your neck. Sit in a straight chair looking forward. Bend your chin down to your chest and hold for 15 seconds. Lift your head back to the starting position, then repeat ten times. After the tenth repetition, bend your head backwards, then repeat the exercise ten times from the backward position.  Make sure that your movements are smooth and gentle. When moving your head backwards, go very slowly and stop as soon as you feel resistance. Never force your head backwards. Called a cervical lateral flexion stretch, turning your head side to side can help with alignment. Start with your head straight with your chin parallel to the floor. Turn your head to the right and hold for 15 seconds. Relax and return to your starting position. Repeat for ten repetitions.  After you finish on the right side, repeat for your left side. Stop turning your head as soon as you feel resistance, even if you haven't turned all of the way to the side. Stand or sit with your back straight. Turn your head to the right, then turn your face toward the ceiling. Look forward and bend you head to the right. Using your right arm, gently press your head toward your right shoulder. Hold for 30 seconds.  Repeat the stretch on your left side.  Don't force your head down. The tilt of your head should be slight. Relax your shoulders and keep your arms at your side. Squeeze your shoulder blades together and hold for five seconds. Release, then repeat the stretch for ten repetitions.  Do three sets of ten...

Warmth and moisture tends to make the adhesive in many bandages more pliable. One convenient way to soak the sticky area in warm water is to simply take a bath or shower. The adhesive may come off on its own, or may need a little gentle scrubbing from a washrag or mild abrasive pad. If you don't have time to take a bath or shower, just fill a bowl or pan with warm water and soak the affected area. This works best if you can let the adhesive soak for a long time. Try this remedy while you're reading or watching television. A few drops of olive, canola, vegetable, coconut, or sunflower oil can help remove adhesive from the skin. Some adhesives dissolve in oil. Others lose their grip when the oil finds its way between the glue and the skin. For best results, work the oil into the affected area with a little gentle action from a soft rag or cotton swab. You don't need much — your goal is to lightly coat the skin, not drench it. Let the oil soak for a moment or two before rubbing gently with a soft towel or cotton ball. Repeat as needed to get all the adhesive off. Cover the ice with a paper towel to prevent it from sticking to skin and leave in place for five minutes.  The ice will make the adhesive brittle, which may cause it to release.

Warts are caused by HPV (human papillomavirus) and as such, can take quite a bit of time to eliminate naturally by one's immune system. Some warts will disappear over time, without treatment. However, "time" could mean anywhere from a couple weeks to a couple of years, so you may wish to choose a more active method. Whichever method you choose, allow it time to work. Some methods are faster acting than others. The fastest method to removing warts permanently is using 100% TCA. With this method results are often seen in less than 10 days and are permanent.  It is also the cheapest and is discussed later. Salicylic acid is the ingredient of most over-the-counter wart removers, including Compound W and Occlusal. It's effectiveness varies and it can take weeks for it work. Soak the skin in water for 5 minutes or longer, apply the acid liberally using the brush and let it dry. Leave it for a day. You can either peel or file it off and then file remaining dead skin.  Do this every two or three days. Several studies have tried to assess the effectiveness of duct tape in removing warts. Duct tape occlusion therapy (DTOT) is supposed to localize medication in the general wart area as well as "choke" the wart itself. One study found that duct tape following the application of imiquimod 5% cream was an effective treatment against the common wart. However it takes a long time (can take up to 6 months) and usually people don't see success with this. Ask your doctor about using cantharidin, a fast-acting chemical that will burn away the wart. Unfortunately,  It can be really expensive, upwards of $500.   There is some pain involved, but you may see results in just a day. The doctor applies cantharidin directly on the wart, then applies a bandage. The next day, the bandage is taken off and the dead skin is removed. If it doesn't work in one treatment, you may need another method—your doctor will make appropriate recommendations. Another remedy your doctor may try is liquid nitrogen—or cryotherapy—to freeze the wart. It may...

Was it a fight, cheating, or did you feel that he slowly lost interest? Understanding why he broke up with you will help you understand if trying to get him back is the best thing to do.  Think about his behavior in the weeks before the breakup. This will help you determine if the relationship can be saved. If it was a sudden breakup resulting from a disagreement, then he just may need some cooling off time. If the relationship had been going wrong for months, then consider if trying to get him back is worth the effort. If it was an argument that led to the breakup, understanding why the fight happened will help you fix it. Was it your first fight, or was the fighting consistent? People fight, break up, and make up all the time. But if it was a pattern, this indicates bigger problems in the relationship as a whole.  If the fight was physical, understand that physical violence is never okay. It is not a good idea to get back into a relationship with someone who uses physical violence against you. Alternatively, it is never okay to use violence against a partner. Seek help from friends, family, and possibly a doctor if you have or have had thoughts about harming your partner. If the relationship ended due to cheating, think about if a healthy relationship will be possible. More often than not, a relationship that ended due to cheating should stay that way.   If he cheated, consider if you could truly forgive him. You may be reacting emotionally if the breakup was recent. If you cheated, consider if trying to get him back is fair to him. The betrayal of cheating is difficult for most people to get past. There was probably a root cause for the cheating. It is possible that the one who did the cheating was not satisfied in the relationship. If the relationship faded because of a loss in interest, then consider the reason. The timing could have been off, you may have been going through a hard time, or you may not be the right person for him.  He could have lost interest because one of you changed. You may have gone...

Was the situation black and white - you were wrong, and the other person was right? Or is the issue you're dealing with more complicated than that? Making amends can be tricky when you're not sure exactly who's to blame for what. Think through what happened and decide what you need to apologize for.  If your role is clear and you know what you need to apologize for, making amends should be fairly straightforward (though not necessarily less difficult). For example, if you borrowed someone's car without asking and got into a fender bender, it should be pretty clear how to make amends. On the other hand, maybe it's not so clear. For example, maybe you and a friend haven't spoken in months, and both of you said hurtful things that have led the relationship to come to a standstill. It might be hard to put your finger on how the feud started and who's responsible. When you've done something wrong toward someone else, you might not feel entirely apologetic. People often disguise their shame by acting aggressive or defensive and making excuses for their behavior. It can be really hard to own up to hurting someone else, but if you're going to make amends you'll have to focus on making things right instead of allowing other feelings to cloud the situation further. Ask yourself these questions to help you acknowledge your feelings:  Are you trying to cover up feelings of shame because you are afraid of being a lesser person if you acknowledge your wrongdoing? Don't worry - apologizing for something you did wrong actually makes you a better person in others' eyes, not a worse one. Are you aware of your mistake but have convinced yourself that you need to fight your way out of this to preserve your reputation? All you're going to do is create a new reputation for yourself as someone who's angry and stubborn. Are you worried that this is a battle between self-respect and respect for others? What is their perspective of what happened between you? Do you think they are feeling the same resentment, anger, annoyance as you?...

Wash and dry your face using your normal daily routine.  Crack an egg and separate the yolk from the egg white, putting the egg white into a small bowl.  Brush the egg white onto your face.  Place a layer of tissue, toilet paper or something similar on top of the egg white.  Wait for the egg white to dry, then brush a second layer of egg white on top of the paper and add another layer of paper.  Repeat the egg white and paper layers up to 3 more times.  Let all layers completely dry, then peel the mask off using the paper.  Wash and dry your face again to clean-up any remaining egg residue.  Another mask option is a combination of 2 tablespoons (29.6 ml) of oats and 3 tablespoons of plain yogurt.  You can also add 1-2 teaspoons of lemon juice if you’d like.  This mask should only be left on your face for up to 5 minutes before washing it off with cold water. If you prefer something red, you can create a mask using a crushed tomato.  Rub the crushed tomato not your face for a couple of minutes, then leave it for another 15 before rinsing it off. Mix 1 teaspoon of milk and 1 tablespoon (14.8 ml) of raw honey in a small glass bowl and heat the mixture for 5-10 seconds in a microwave.  Once the mixture becomes like a paste, allow it to cool.  Brush the paste over your face and apply a clean and dry strip of cotton on top of the paste.  Let the mixture completely dry on your face.  Pull off the cotton and rinse your face with cold water to remove any remaining dry paste. Instead of milk, you can also use 1 teaspoon of cinnamon with 1 teaspoon of raw honey.  You will still need to mix these items together until they form a paste, but the mixture doesn’t need to be heated.  This mixture only needs to remain on your face for 3-5 minutes before you pull off the cotton strips. Clean and dry your face using your normal daily routine. Squeeze the juice out of a fresh lemon and put the juice in a small bottle.  Using cotton balls, apply the lemon juice to your face just before bedtime.  In the morning, rinse your face and...

Wash and peel the apples first. Then, prepare them in one of the following ways:  Core the apples, then cut them into rings/slices. Cut the apples into thin wedges.  Cut the apples into quarters, then into ½-inch (1.27 centimeters) thick slices. Tilt the skillet from side-to-side as the butter melts to help it spread evenly across the bottom. You can use white or brown sugar, but brown sugar will give you a better flavor. Keep stirring until the sugar and cinnamon are mixed evenly with the butter. Turn the apples often with a spatula or wooden spoon so that they get cooked evenly. Scoop the apple slices out with a spoon, and serve them in a bowl. If you don't want the "sauce" leftover from the apples, scoop them out using a slotted spoon instead.

Wash any makeup off of your eyes and lashes. This will help the moisturizing qualities of the Vaseline do its job. Using your clean finger, move the top layer of Vaseline around. This will warm it up and make it easier to apply. You want to get a heavy amount of Vaseline on your wand. It has a tendency to clump onto the front of your brush. If this happens, simply use a damp paper towel to help spread it evenly down your wand. Just as if you were applying mascara, apply the Vaseline to your upper lashes. Coat both sides of your lashes thoroughly, making sure not to get any in your eyes. If you wish, you can smudge some of the Vaseline back over your eyelid for smoother skin. If you have sensitive skin, this may cause a reaction so be sure to test it on the back of your hand before doing this. Dip your wand back in the Vaseline. Being careful, once again, to not get the Vaseline in your eyes, apply it to your bottom lashes. Your lashes will clump together when you apply the Vaseline. However, be careful not to put on too much or it will end up all over your face and sheets. You should use enough to coat your eyelashes evenly in one thin coat. If you apply this every night, the Vaseline will moisturize your lashes which prevents them from breaking off and falling out prematurely. The conditioning qualities will help prolong the cycle of each eyelash, resulting in thicker and longer lashes. When you wake up, wash the Vaseline off. If you have trouble getting the Vaseline off of your eyelashes, try using a cleanser. Because it's oil based, water might not be enough. Use your regular make-up routine during the day. If you do this consistently, you can see results in as little as three days.

Wash cycles consist of two important speeds: a speed at which it agitates or tumbles the clothes with water, and a speed that spins the water out of the clothes. Depending on what you're washing, the wash cycle you choose should match what kind of fabric you're washing to help maximize cleanliness while also protecting your clothes.   Normal Cycle: This cycle goes with a fast/fast approach -- it tumbles fast and spins fast. It helps with cleaning very dirty and sweaty clothes, and is what you will most likely use on a regular basis. Sturdy fabrics like cotton, linen, denim, towels, and bedding do quite well in a normal cycle.  Permanent or Perm Press: This cycle goes with a fast/slow approach. These fabrics need fast agitation to be clean but a slow spin to prevent wrinkles. Use this cycle for synthetic fibres like rayons, knits, polyesters, and acetates. Synthetic fibres are known to pill, or create small balls of fibre and slow spin cycles help prevent pilling.  Delicate Cycle: This cycle uses a slow/slow approach, reducing agitation and preventing wear and tear. However, the level of cleanliness decreases with its slow tumbling. This cycle is best used for specific or special garments like lingerie, sequinned clothing, laced or loosely woven fabrics, or items made of sheer fabrics like pantyhose.  Special cycles: Newer models of washing machines have special cycles that do things such as sanitize, steam, or claim to protect whites and remove stains. Consult your machine's manual for further explanations on what each special cycle does. In theory, the hotter the water, the cleaner the clothes. Hot water sanitizes and kills germs better, dissolves detergents more effectively, and removes built up grime so clothes look brighter and cleaner. However, in some cases, hot water can shrink clothes, fade fabrics, set certain stains in, and can be quite expensive for your energy bill. So choose a water temperature that your fabrics can stand but also what you can afford for the best results.  Use cool water in the...

Wash off your baby's bottom with warm water.  Resist the temptation to wipe the area if possible. A bulb syringe can be used to spray water to the sensitive spots. Gently remove any remaining poop with a dab of a baby wipe or wet cloth.  If you do use a baby wipe, don't use one with any alcohol or fragrance. Diaper rash is a common kind of contact dermatitis where the skin gets inflamed due to prolonged contact of urine and fecal matter on the skin of the baby. If not caught early it may become infected by bacteria or yeast.   Avoidance of irritants and frequent diaper changes are -- hands down -- the best preventive measures. If you must towel dry, dab gently. Don't rub! That'll just irritate the skin further. Consider the following options:  Place a new diaper on your baby, but place it loosely (or use one that's too big). Keep your baby in the buff for even just a few minutes. The more time she can air out, the better. Consider having your baby sleep diaper free, too. You can put down a protective sheet on your baby's crib to keep from having to deal with disasters in the wee hours of the morning. For the record, drying the rash in open air is effective in helping clear up the diaper rash. Various diaper creams are available without a prescription. Zinc oxide is an ingredient in many creams and can be effective alone to treat a moderate rash. But petroleum ointment or petroleum jelly, non-petroleum jelly, and lanolin products work, too.  Diaper creams can help decrease the rash and provide relief from it. Zinc oxide, commonly known as Desitin, provides an effective barrier against skin irritants which lessen friction to irritated skin. (In other words, it protects against stool and urine.) Skip the talcum powder; it's bad for the lungs. If you must, opt for a cornstarch powder, but even that isn't great -- it can cause yeast to grow and lead to another rash.

Wash several mint leaves under running water.  Slice the mint into narrow ribbons to allow the flavor to steep better and to make for smaller pieces in the drink.  Mint is available in most supermarkets and is also hardy enough to be grown in many gardens. Adding mint to the cucumber water will make it sweeter without adding sugar. Lemons, limes and oranges all add strong flavor to water without adding calories.  If serving immediately, slice the fruit in half and squeeze the juice into the prepared cucumber water.  Slices of fruit may be left with the cucumbers to steep for a longer period.  Remember to wash the fruit, particularly if you are allowing slices to steep. Be aware that the fruit may contain seeds which could fall into the drink. Citrus is also an important source of Vitamin C which is necessary to strengthen bones and muscles. Remove the cap of the strawberry with a paring knife and wash the berries to remove dirt or other impurities.  Slice strawberries lengthwise and allow them to steep with the cucumbers.  Strawberries are an important source of potassium which can help lower blood pressure.    Strawberries will be most flavorful when they are in season.  Look for dark red berries that still have their caps. Pineapple chunks will add a tangy acidic flavor to your cucumber water.  Slice fresh or canned pineapple into chunks and keep them in the freezer for a quick additive. Add ½ cup of frozen pineapple to a pitcher of cucumber water Fill half the pitcher with seltzer water for the initial steep and add the remaining chilled water just prior to serving for maximum flavor and bubbles.  Club soda or other carbonated waters can give the sensation of drinking soda without adding the calories or sugar of commercially available drinks. If calories are a consideration, remember to check the label of the sparkling water to be sure you aren’t accidentally adding more than just bubbles. Remember that sparkling water will go flat over time, so it is better to chill it before opening it rather than after.

Wash the area with mild soap and water; use a bar of soap and enough water to wet surface of your hands. Work the soap in your hands into thick, soapy lather. Rub the lather over the affected area liberally. Repeat until the entire area is covered. Leave on and do not rinse. Allow the soap lather to dry over the bitten areas. You should experience immediate relief from itching. Washing the bites with soapy water can help alleviate itchiness and prevent a skin infection. You can try a number of the following remedies to relieve the itching associated with the bites. These all use products you probably already have on hand.  Make a paste of baking soda and water. Slowly add small amounts of water to the baking soda and stir until you have a thick paste. Apply a thick coat of the paste to your bedbug bites. Allow the paste to dry and stay on the rash for an hour or more before washing it off with warm water. Saturate a cotton ball with lemon juice, St. John's Wort or witch hazel, all of which are natural astringents. Dab at the rash with the cotton ball to help dry it out and control the itch. Apply the gel from an aloe plant to bedbug bites. Use pure 100% aloe vera gel. Aloe contains both antibiotic and anti-fungal properties, which can help prevent against a secondary infection due to scratching. A cream that contains hydrocortisone or cortisone, such as Cortaid, can reduce inflammation and itching. You can buy a 1% hydrocortisone cream from any drugstore or pharmacy. Your doctor can tell you which cream and brand is ideal for you.  Follow the package's directions to apply the cream correctly. The cream is very mild and does not cause side effects if used for a short period of time, like a week. You can also get a stronger corticosteroid cream with a doctor's prescription. When applied to the bites, calamine lotion may provide some symptomatic relief from the itching. It will also help to dry the rash and protect the skin as it heals. Oral antihistamines, such as diphenhydramine (Benadryl), can help control...

Wash the cucumber to remove any dirt or bacteria that may be present.  If desired, peel off the skin of the cucumber using a vegetable peeler or paring knife.  One attractive option is to peel thin stripes off, leaving some present for decoration.     Peeling the cucumber is largely a matter of taste, whether you prefer the look and texture of a cucumber with its peel or without. Using a sharp knife, cut the cucumber lengthwise in half.  Slice the two halves into pieces .25-.5 inch (.6-1.25 cm) thick. If desired, seed the cucumber by removing the soft middle portion with a spoon prior to slicing.  Cucumber seeds are edible, but some people may prefer not to include them in the drink.    Cucumber slices will float, so if you desire a stronger infusion put a layer of ice on top of the cucumbers to keep them below the surface of the water.  For best results, allow the cucumber to steep in the water for at least an hour before drinking so the flavor will infuse the water. Allowing the water to steep overnight will make for a more strongly flavored drink. Stir it gently before serving. How much water will depend on the size of the pitcher, but a good starting ratio would be two quarts of water to one medium sized cucumber.  Cucumber water is best when it is chilled, so choose a pitcher that will fit easily into your refrigerator. If this is not an option, add ice to the pitcher to allow it to chill before serving. The same cucumber, or other variations if you include them, can be used for multiple batches of cucumber water.  Simply leave the slices of cucumber in the pitcher when serving and refill the pitcher.  When the water seems less flavorful, discard or eat the remaining cucumber slices. Consume the cucumber water within two days, as the beverage lacks preservatives and over time the cucumbers will rot.

Wash the interior ceramic section and the top glass portion with dish soap and warm water. Your slow cooker emits heat, so safety is a priority. Make sure there is plenty of room on all sides, including the top, to vent off the heat for the duration of cooking. You can store your clean slow cooker in a cupboard when it is unplugged. If you choose to do this, you should clear space every time you remove it for use. Older crock pots may not automatically use this setting after the time is finished. Different brands of slow cooker have slightly different settings and cleaning instructions. Find a recipe that is made for a slow cooker. You can find cookbooks or online recipes that list the heat and cooking times along with the correct amount of ingredients. Keep in mind, that you should plan to fill at least half of your crock pot in order for slow cooking times to be correct for the recipe. If you have a very large or small slow cooker, you may want to change the portions. Most recipes are intended for 5 to 6 qt. (4.7 to 5.7l) slow cookers. Find a normal recipe intended for dry heat and adjust it for a slow cooker. In order to properly adjust it, you will want to cut the liquid ingredients by 1/2, because liquid does not escape from the pot. You should also place things that are roasted or baked on high heat on the "high" setting and things roasted or baked on lower heats on the "low" setting. You will need to experiment with cooking times, but cook recipes for at least 4 to 6 hours.

Wash the mint with cool water. Pluck the leaves by hand or use a sharp kitchen knife to cut them right below the stems. Set the leaves on a dry paper towel to soak up excess moisture.  This is a great way to process leftover mint, or you can preserve a whole bundle as soon as you get it home from the store. You can also go ahead the chop the mint leaves. That way, all you’ll have to do is thaw them out when you’re ready to cook, bake or mix up drinks. With the tip of your finger, smooth the leaves flat against the bottom of the tray. Use one or two leaves per ice cube slot. For trays that make large or oddly shaped cubes, you may be able to use an additional one or two leaves. Drizzle the water into each slot slowly, leaving a little space at the top of the tray for the cubes to expand as they solidify. Don’t worry if some of the leaves float to the top—as long as they don’t poke out of the tray, it shouldn’t be a problem. If your mint ice cubes are destined for drinks, you can also add a spritz of lemon juice or a sprinkle of cane sugar or honey. Freezing your mint will keep it fresh almost indefinitely. When you’re ready to put it to use, just pop out a few cubes and thaw them out in a strainer under lukewarm water. You can also add the mint cubes whole to drinks or smoothies for a zesty, refreshing infusion of flavor. Yum!  Try chilling a pitcher of fresh-squeezed lemonade or iced tea with mint ice cubes.  After thawing the mint leaves, press them lightly between a layer of paper towels to squeeze out excess moisture.

Wash the mussels thoroughly with cold water. Beard them and scrub off any grit. Discard any mussels with open shells. Pour the cream, lemon, chicken stock, and salt and pepper into a deep cast iron skillet or another deep pan. Heat the ingredients over medium heat, bringing them to a light simmer. Place the mussels in the skillet, cover, and cook the mussels for about 5 minutes, or until their shells open. Remove the skillet from heat. Fill the pot about 3/4 full, and put in a few pinches of salt to add some flavor to the noodles. Break them up so all the noodles fit. This is the state at which the pasta is fully cooked, but still has a good texture, and hasn't become too mushy. It should take 5 - 10 minutes. Place a colander or strainer over the sink. Pour the pasta into the colander or strainer to drain the water. Transfer the pasta to a large bowl. Pour the cream and mussels sauce from the skillet into the bowl with the pasta. This dish is excellent with extra lemon wedges and Parmesan cheese.

Wash the shanks and use a sharp knife to remove some of the larger deposits of fat, but don't trim the shanks of all visible fat. The fat will render and contribute to the flavor of the final dish. Pour the oil into a large dutch oven or another oven-safe dish and place it over medium high heat. Allow it to heat completely, until it begins to smoke just slightly. Season the shanks with salt and pepper on all sides. Place them in the hot oil and brown them on all three sides. Brown each side for about 4 minutes, enough to get a good sear on each side.  Don't cook the lamb shanks all the way through. Browning them will bring out the deep flavor of the shanks, but longer cooking will bring about the soft, fall-apart texture you want. Make sure the oil is nice and hot before you put the shanks in the pot. Arrange the vegetables and garlic cloves around the lamb shanks, and drop in the peppercorns. Pour the wine over the entire contents of the pot. Let the red wine come to a boil, and boil it for three minutes. Add the water and reduce the heat to bring everything to a quick simmer.  Boiling the wine for three minutes will lower the alcohol content a bit, leaving the deep flavor of the wine behind. With the addition of the water, the shanks and vegetables should be fully submerged in liquid. If they aren't, add a little more water. If you don't have a tight-fitting lid for the dutch oven, cover it tightly with aluminum foil. Place it in the oven and braise it for 1 hour and 30 minutes. Every half hour, remove it from the oven and turn the shanks so they cook evenly. After 1 hour and 30 minutes, the shanks should be quite tender. If they aren't, return them to the oven and continue braising, checking every 15 minutes until they've reached the correct texture. Transfer the cooked lamb shanks to a serving platter. Pour the braising liquid through a fine-mesh sieve to strain out the vegetables and keep the liquid. Pour the liquid into a saucepan and cook it over medium heat, stirring often, until it has reduced and...

Wash the squid thoroughly and remove the spines and beaks. Cut each squid into 1" pieces, separating the heads from the tentacles.  Do not remove the ink sac, as this will add flavor. To see how to prepare squid, see this guide. However, since these are very small squid, it's not necessary to cut them up so much. Frozen squid can be used if fresh squid is not available. . Use a 4 ½ qt. cooking pot with a lid and a heavy base.  Mix to combine all the ingredients and coat the squid thoroughly. Cover the pot, but leave the lid ajar to let some of the steam escape. Stir occasionally to make sure it doesn’t burn. This particular recipe has no sauce to accompany it. In a large frying pan, preheat the oil over medium-high heat, then add the squid.  Move the squid around the frying pan, pushing on them gently to make sure all the ink sacs are broken. The squid should be tender, so watch carefully to make sure the squid doesn’t overcook. This is usually eaten with steamed white rice.

Wash the wound daily with soap and water and re-apply neosporin and the gauze dressing. Continue to wash and change the dressing each day until the skin has healed. This is typically less than two weeks. Doing this routine every day can help prevent scarring of the burned tissue. Your skin may slough off, meaning it will cast or flake off. This is especially true for any blistered areas, and you should see the skin flake and cast itself off naturally. Do not pick at your skin or break blisters. This will only aggravate, irritate and further inflame the wounded area. If you notice any symptoms of infection, you should go to the emergency room or seek other immediate medical attention. If you are diabetic or on steroids or undertaking chemotherapy or have a weakened immune system for any reason, you are at risk for infection and should be especially vigilant in monitoring for these signs of infection. Signs that the wound has become infected include:  Fever greater than 100°F or 38°C (orally). Increasing erythema or redness of the wound site. Consider drawing a circle around the area of redness with a magic marker, if you are uncertain whether the redness is expanding. This can help you see whether an infection might be spreading. Drainage of the wound. Look for any pus or greenish fluid seeping out of the wound. Simply apply petroleum jelly, 100% aloe vera gel, or antibiotic ointment or any prescription cream, such as Silvadene burn cream, that is prescribed specifically for you by your physician. If you are tempted to spray Solarcaine or any other topical numbing agent on the burned area, you should consult your physician before doing so. In general, small burns should not be very painful, unless it is infected or you have encountered some complication. Continuing pain is an indication that you should seek medical attention. If the pain of the burn is bothering you, you can take anti-inflammatory analgesic oral medication, such as ibuprofen, naproxen, or aspirin. Discuss these options with your doctor if you...

Wash twelve avocados and cut each one in half around the pit. Use the knife to cut in a scooping motion around the pit until the two halves come apart. Use a spoon to scoop out the fruit of the avocado and deposit it in a food processor or blender. Dispose of the skin and the pit. Turn the food processor or blender onto the puree setting. Mix the avocado fruit until it forms a smooth paste. Then scoop out the blended avocado and put it in a medium-sized pot. Turn the oven on to medium heat and heat the avocados in the pot, stirring every five minutes. When the mixture starts to boil, it will start bubbling and you should notice the avocado oil rising to the top. Keep cooking and stirring the mixture until the avocado changes from a light green to a dark green or brown, and the water has evaporated. When the avocado mixture has stopped cooking, spoon the mixture into a bowl. Place a clean, thin cloth such as cheesecloth on top of the bowl, then holding the cloth in place around the rim of the bowl, turn the bowl upside-down and pinch the corners of the cloth together so that you’re left with a sack of avocado. Squeeze the sack of avocado over a bowl to strain out the oil. The oil should come out drop by drop into the bowl. Keep changing your grip and squeezing for a minute or so until no more oil is coming out. Once you have squeezed out all the oil, pour the oil from the bowl into a small bottle or into a container with a lid. Your avocado oil is now ready for use!

Wash your bedding and clothes to get rid of cigarette smells. You should also get rid of any ashtrays, cigarettes, and lighters from your house. Make sure to get plenty of sleep, since this will help lower your stress. Remind yourself of your plan and carry a written version with you, or keep it on your phone. You may also want to re-read the list of reasons why you want to quit. Your family and friends can be extra support in your cessation journey. Let them know your goal and ask them to help you by not smoking around you or offering you a cigarette. You can also ask for their encouragement and to remind you of your specific goals when temptation is difficult. Remember to take quitting one day at a time. Remind yourself that this is a process and not an event. Many people find that certain situations trigger the desire to smoke. You might want a cigarette with your cup of coffee, for instance, or you might want to smoke when you're trying to solve a problem at work. Identify places where it may be difficult not to smoke and have a plan of what you'll do in those specific places. For example, you should have an automatic response for a cigarette offer: “No thank you, but I will have another tea” or “ No - I am trying to quit.” Control stress. Stress can be a pitfall when trying to quit smoking. Use techniques such as deep breathing, exercise, and down time to help thwart stress. Continue your plan even if you have bumps in the road. If you have a relapse and smoke for an entire day, be sure to be gentle and forgiving with yourself. Accept that the day was tough, remind yourself that quitting is a long, hard journey, and get back on your plan the next day. Try to avoid relapsing as much as possible. But if you do, recommit as soon as you can to quitting smoking. Learn from your experience and try to cope better in the future.

Wash your face once in the morning and once before bed. If you sweat during the day, such as during exercise or from being out in hot weather, wash your face as soon as possible to remove the perspiration. Look for a cleanser labeled as “non-comedogenic” This means that the product does not promote the formation of comedones, blackheads, whiteheads, or pimples.  Examples include products from Neutrogena, Cetaphil and Olay. There are many store-brand products that are non-comedogenic. Read the label to be certain. There are oils that are used to clean the skin and many of these utilize very non-comedogenic oils. Using these is based on the principle that “like dissolves like.” In other words, oils can be used to dissolve and remove excess skin oils. Also use alcohol-free products. Alcohol dries and damages the skin. You want to be very gentle when cleaning your skin. Using a washcloth or sponge can irritate the skin and cause more problems. Do not pick, pop, squeeze, or touch acne. This can also cause flare-ups, cause scarring, and will cause a longer healing time. Sun (and tanning beds) can damage your skin cells because of damaging UVB radiation. If you are using certain acne medications or certain other types of medication, you should know that some medications can make your skin even more sensitive to the sun. These drugs include antibiotics such as ciprofloxacin, tetracycline, sulfamethoxazole and trimethoprim; antihistamines like diphenhydramine (Benadryl); drugs used to treat cancer (5-FU, vinblastine, dacarbazine); heart drugs like amiodarone, nifedipine, quinidine and diltiazem; Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs like naproxen, and the acne medications isotretinoin (Accutane) and acitretin (Soriatane). This can cause permanent scarring and the skin will take longer to heal. Exfoliation is popular, but vigorous exfoliation often does more harm than good.  Exfoliation can cause micro-scarring (tiny scars that can't be seen without some sort of magnification), obvious scarring and it can often make...

Wash your hair with some shampoo. You want to work with clean hair free of oils and hair products. Brew about 2 cups (470 ml) of strong, organic coffee. It may help to brew 2 cups (470 ml) of coffee, since you will be pouring the coffee over your head as a rinse. The more coffee, the easier it will be to pour on your hair. Allow your coffee to cool down to room temperature, or even cooler. Once your coffee is brewed, pour the coffee into a large bowl or pot. Essentially, you need a large enough container to hold the coffee so you can scoop it up to pour on your hair, and also to collect the falling coffee as you hold your head over the container and pour the coffee on your hair. Place the large bowl or pot into the shower and hold your head over the bowl. You can dunk your hair into the bowl, and use a small cup to scoop up coffee and pour it over the rest of your hair. This will be especially helpful to reach the back of your head, which will be unable to be dipped all the way into the coffee. Pour coffee over your hair approximately 15 times. This will make sure your hair gets completely saturated with the coffee. Wring out your hair, and allow the coffee to sit on your hair for about at least 20 minutes to a few hours. It may help to pin your hair up in a bun to prevent the coffee from dripping. Alternatively, you can pour the brewed coffee into a spray bottle and spray your hair. Either way, be sure to cover as much of your hair as possible with the coffee. After you have let the coffee sit on your hair, rinse out the coffee with water in the shower.  You may need to soak you hair with coffee a few more times in order to achieve your desired hair color. Rinsing your hair with apple cider vinegar may help the coffee color last longer.

Wash your hands regularly. Your fingernails should be free of dirt and trimmed evenly. Do not bite your fingernails, or chew on your cuticles—you'll look nervous and neurotic. With extremely rare (and often accidental) exception, walking out of the house with bed head never looks good. Wash and brush your hair on a regular basis. If you have the time and inclination, consider using a paste or gel to style your hair, but follow the "less is more" rule with styling products, and don't use too much. Many people, perhaps unfairly, associate bad skin with bad hygiene. Wash your face thoroughly, especially after any physical activity. Avoid razor burn if at all possible. If you're prone to acne or other skin conditions, see a dermatologist to help you get your skin in shape. Do this every day—it's an invigorating way to start the day, and looking clean and smelling good doesn't hurt in the perception department, either! . Eating healthy will help with many things such as keeping a good weight, avoiding cavities, having a good complexion, and being energetic. Getting eight hours or more of sleep every night will do wonders for your complexion, energy and overall appearance. Looking handsome goes beyond your style. Exercising regularly not only helps with your appearance, confidence, and energy, but releases endorphins that make you feel good, and therefore more appealing to others.

Wash your socks as you would normally before you tie dye them. Cotton holds dye the most effectively, so the socks you choose should be at least 80 percent cotton. Spandex and polyester will not dye. You need to use white socks in order to get the brightest and most visible dye color. Use rubber bands to tie off sections of your socks so that the dye will create patterns. Tying rubber bands in various ways will yield different designs in the tie dye. Common rubber band patterns include:  Stripes, made by wrapping three to four rubber bands around the foot of the sock and along the leg of the sock as well. Spirals, made by gathering the fabric into a twist and then fastening the twist with rubber bands.  Circles, made by pinching off a section of the material and tying it off about 1 inch (2.5 cm) down with a single rubber band. This works well for heels. Ring patterns, made by slipping buttons or pennies into the socks. Tie these off with rubber bands to hold the button or penny when dyeing.

Washing the grease from your hair may seem like the best solution at first, but daily washing actually causes your hair to produce more grease. Your hair tries to make up for the natural oils you’re washing out each day, causing a cycle of increased grease. Wash your hair only 2 to 3 times per week maximum for the best results. Getting your hair wet without washing also causes natural oils to be stripped away and causes your hair to overcompensate in grease. To protect your hair from getting wet in the shower, secure it inside a shower cap. Hair that’s prone to grease doesn’t need more conditioning near the roots, it needs less. However, not conditioning your hair at all can cause your ends to get dry and damaged-looking. When you use conditioner after shampooing, apply it starting halfway down your hair and go all the way to your ends.  Be sure to always rinse conditioner thoroughly from your hair, or use a leave-in conditioner. On days that you’re not shampooing, you can get rid of style creases or cowlicks by rinsing the creased parts of your hair and applying conditioner there as well. Hot water opens the cuticle of your hair and strips more natural oils from your hair. Hot water also causes your pores, including the ones on your scalp, to produce more sebum, or thick oil. This thick oil will start traveling down your hair strands from your scalp as soon as you leave your hot shower. For the best results, keep your shower water as cool as you can, especially when rinsing shampoo and conditioner from your hair. Cool water closes the cuticle of your hair, which will help to keep moisture in. Using too much shampoo with each wash can lead to build-up and make your hair look heavy and greasy. When squirting shampoo into your hand to use, make sure you use no more than a large coin amount, like a quarter or two-pence piece. You may need more or less depending on the length and thickness of your hair. If you accidently squirt too much shampoo into your hand, remove some of it before starting to apply shampoo to...

Washing towels by hand saves money, uses much less energy, and doesn't wear them out nearly as quickly as a washing machine. However, while hand towels are relatively easy to wash in a sink or bucket, large towels will become quite heavy when they absorb water, and will take a large amount of work and time to clean. For large towels, the equipment mentioned below is recommended, especially the agitator. However, instructions for washing using only your hands are also included. Depending on how large your load of towels is, you'll want to use one of these containers. First, make sure the container is clean by scrubbing with plenty of soap and hot water. When you put the towels in, make sure they are all spread out and not knotted or bunched together. A kitchen sink or heavily used bathtub may require stronger cleaning methods. Allow bleach or other cleaning products time to do their work, then rinse off thoroughly before using the container as a laundry tub. You can use cold or warm water; there is no need to make it scalding hot. Add a small amount of mild detergent. A typical 5 gallon (20 L) bucket requires about a tablespoon (15 mL) of detergent, while a bathtub may require 4 tablespoons (60 mL). Use your judgement and add more detergent if the towels are particularly dirty.  Use eco-friendly detergent if you will be dumping the water outside. Always use mild detergent to protect your hand if you don't plan on wearing gloves. Try to use it whenever washing towels, since they tend to be easily damaged by harsh detergents. Borax will soften your water and make it easier for the detergent to do its work. It is safe and easy to add to your hand washing session, although you should keep it out of reach of pets and children. Try adding one tablespoon of borax per gallon of water (15 mL borax for every 4 L water). You can increase this amount if you are having trouble removing stains, but it's wise to start with a small amount so there is no chance of staining or damaging delicate items. A large or muddy load of...

Washing your face removes all of the oil, sunscreen and everyday pollutants from the environment that rest on the facial skin. It also helps prevent clogged pores, which in turn reduces the likelihood of developing breakouts. Finally, cleansing your face helps prepare the skin to absorb the products that you plan to apply to it. Washing your face is something that you should do at least twice a day, even if you don't plan on giving yourself a full facial. Wash your hands thoroughly and remove all of the makeup from your face. Use your regular makeup remover to clear your face of any products. There are plenty of options out there, from $1 beauty bars to $40 cleansing lotions. Many estheticians, however, note that you don't have to spend a ton of money on a cleanser and that it is more important that you get something that is specific to your skin type.  As a general rule, gel and foam cleansers are more suited for combination/oily skin, while cream cleansers are more suited for normal/dry skin types because they add a little extra hydration to the face. If you have mild acne, you might want to try a cleanser with salicylic acid in it. Salicylic acid helps unclog pores to resolve and prevent lesions on the skin. One good option are Neutrogena's Oil-Free Acne Stress Control Power-Cream or Power-Foam washes. You can also make your own cleanser using a few ingredients you probably already have on hand. Here are a couple of options:  Mix together 3 tbsp fresh apple juice, 6 tbsp whole milk and 2 tbsp honey. If you want the cleanser to be more of a warming cleanser, then pop the honey in the microwave for 10 seconds before you add it to the other ingredients. Place 1/2 tablespoon of oats in a food processor and pulse until powdered. Then add 1 tablespoon almonds and pulse until powdered. Mix in 1/4 teaspoon of honey and 1/4 spoon of soy milk. Wet the skin using warm water. Then, apply a quarter-sized amount of cleanser to your face with an outward circular motion. Once washed, rinse your face clean with warm water...

Washing your hair every day can cause it to get dry and brittle. Each time you shampoo your hair, you wash away the protective oil that keeps it healthy and strong. When you're trying to grow your hair fast, it's best to wash your hair no more than once or twice a week.  In between washes, use dry shampoo to keep your roots from looking oily. When you wash your hair, handle it gently. Don't scrub it or wring it out. Rinse with lukewarm or cool water instead of hot. Air drying is really the healthiest choice when it comes to growing out your hair. Drying your hair with a hairdryer eventually weakens the hair shaft and leads to damage. The same goes for other heat styling tools like curling irons, flat irons and hot rollers.  After your shower, pat your hair dry with a towel. Don't roughly towel it dry. Comb it out with a wide tooth comb. Apply product, such as leave-in conditioner, then let it fully air dry. When your hair is wet, it stretches and breaks much more easily than when it is dry. That's why brushing your hair when it's wet is so damaging. It leads to breakage, frizz and split ends. Instead, use a wide tooth comb to gently detangle your hair. Begin near the tips and work your way up to the roots, rather than dragging the comb down through your hair to pull out tangles. Dyeing, bleaching, and chemically straightening your hair can cause a lot of damage. It's better to leave your hair in its natural state while you're trying to grow it out. You should also avoid hairstyles that can pull out the hair, like tight weaves or braids.  If you're determined to lighten or color your hair, use a natural method that doesn't cause damage. Try  lightening your hair with honey or dyeing it with henna. Learn to love your natural look. If your hair is curly or kinky, there's no natural method that will make it look perfectly straight. Fast-growing, free-flowing hair is beautiful. The sun, air pollution, and pool chlorine are among the environmental elements that can damage your hair. If your hair is particularly...

Washing your hair too often strips your hair of sebum, the natural oil that protects it and keeps it healthy. Stripped hair breaks easily and looks dull and dry. To keep your hair glossy, shampoo no more than once or twice a week.  It may take up to two weeks or longer for your hair to balance out and get used to being washed less frequently. Be prepared to wear your hair up during the transition time. In between washes, you can perk up your roots by using dry shampoo. This absorbs oil without stripping your hair. Washing and styling your hair with chemical-laden products can damage your hair over time. Many shampoos, conditioners and styling products have ingredients that might be contributing to the problem. Look for all-natural products that don't contain the following ingredients:  Sulfates. These are commonly found in shampoo. They are harsh cleansers that strip your hair of natural oils. Silicones. These are commonly found in conditioner and leave-in shine products. They eventually build up in your hair and make it look dull.  Alcohols. These are commonly found in gel, hairspray and other styling products. They dry out your hair over time. Dyeing, bleaching, and permanently straightening or curling your hair can have damaging long-term effects. Altering your hair from its natural state will eventually cause it to get dried out and prone to breakage. Avoid harsh treatments whenever possible.  Henna dye can be extremely drying as can other natural dyes, such as metallic salts. A demi- or semi-permanent hair color is good low-damage option. Use honey or chamomile tea as a natural lightener. No matter what you do to your hair, it won't look naturally shiny unless you're healthy from the inside out. Eating well and staying hydrated have a big effect on the way your hair looks. Try eating more of these foods for the healthiest possible hair:  Fish, beef, poultry, eggs, legumes, and other foods that are full of protein. Hair is made from protein and it immediately suffers if you aren't getting enough. Eating...

Washing your hair with hot water causes the hair shaft to open, resulting in a lot of frizz and extra volume. Using cold water causes the hair shaft to lie flat, resulting in sleeker, shinier, less puffy-looking hair.  If you hate cold showers, go for lukewarm instead. Even the slightly reduced temperature will help your hair look thinner. Instead of washing your whole body in cold or lukewarm water, you could also put your hair up in a shower cap during your regular shower and then wash it separately in cold water afterward. Aim to wash your hair every 3-4 days to utilize natural oils that keep your hair healthy and protected. The rest of the time, simply rinse your hair with cool water. It may take your hair some time to get used to this new routine, but you can use products like dry shampoo to keep your hair looking fresh in the meantime!  When shampoo your hair use a quarter-sized amount of non-volumizing shampoo and focus on cleaning your scalp rather than your hair. Washing your hair with shampoo every day removes the natural oils that keep it looking sleek and healthy. This can cause your hair to look bushy, frizzy, and thick. Mix half vinegar, half water in an old conditioner or spray bottle to use as a conditioner. Apply it all over your hair when you're done shampooing and rinse it out at the end of your shower. When your hair dries, it will look soft and shiny, rather than frizzy and bushy.  Conditioner contains agents that coat your hair and can make it look thicker. Apple cider vinegar has many of the same smoothing effects as conditioner, but won’t coat your hair. Be aware that apple cider vinegar has a very strong smell, so you may want to apply it sparingly at first to make sure your hair and scalp don’t absorb the scent. One great way to disguise the scent is to apply a scented leave-in product, such as a conditioning spray, after your shower. There are a variety of gels, creams, and serums on the market that are designed to straighten or tame unruly hair. Depending on the product, you can...

Washing your hands beforehand ensures that you won’t spread more germs when you’re cleaning your earrings. Run your hands under warm water, then lather them up with hand soap for 20 seconds. Rinse them again and dry with a clean towel. Make sure to wash between your fingers and up to your wrists. Cleaning your earrings with hot water is perfect for when you’re short on supplies and just need your jewelry a little shinier. To start, pour a couple cups of water into a pot on the stove and heat it until it’s just boiling.  You can also heat the water in a mug in the microwave. Start by heating it for 1 minute and 30 seconds, then check and continue heating it as necessary. Cleaning with hot water won’t get your earrings quite as clean as a solution would, but it’s a good method for when you’re low on cleaning supplies. Remove the water from the heat and drop the earrings inside. Let them sit in the water for about 20 minutes to get clean.  The hot water will kill germs and loosen dirt from the surface of your earrings. Hot water is safe for all earrings. If you’re cleaning costume-style plastic earrings, you can wait a minute or so for it to cool before placing the earrings in. Lift your earrings out with a spoon or with your hand, if the water is cool enough. Gently scrub them with an old toothbrush, going one at a time to brush free any remaining dirt. Rinse the earrings with warm water when you’re done. Let the earrings sit for a few minutes, or until they’re dry. You can also pat them a couple of times with the towel to get rid of any excess water drops. Touch them to see when they’re dry and ready to be put away or worn.

Washing your pet will kill the fleas that may be living on it. Prepare your pet for the bath by applying the flea soap near the pet’s ears, eyes, nose, mouth, and butt. When fleas feel water, they immediately look for safe places on the pet to hide out, such as around the neck, on the head, and near the anus. Do this before you get the pet wet. There may be a host of other fleas in various stages of their life cycle waiting to hop onto your pet, so be sure to use this method with other preventative measures, such as vacuuming, borate mixes, and cedar chips. and let the solution stand for at least 10 minutes. After you've applied the soap to the pet’s vulnerable areas, get the pet wet and lather its whole body up. Once the 10 minutes have passed, wash all of the soap out of the pet’s fur with warm water. Then, once the pet is dry, comb out the dead fleas. Take a shower immediately after washing your pet because some flea shampoos can cause irritation when left on human skin for prolonged periods of time. Flea products, such as Advantage or Frontline, are spot-treatments that are applied to pets monthly. Usually, these spot-treatments are dropped directly onto the skin of your pet, usually between the shoulder blades and at several spots down the spine. The treatment will then work its way through the skin (integumentary system). You can purchase pet-friendly flea products at your local pet store. You can use flea products in conjunction with a fine-toothed flea comb. Use a flea comb to pull off individual fleas from the pet's fur. This will prevent flea adaption to the treatments. You may find that some of the standard flea treatments are ineffective because the local flea population has adapted to a particular treatment (including the chemicals in flea collars). In this case, switch among other treatments and use an insect growth regulator (IGR) such as Nylar. For example, if a flea collar isn’t working, try scrubbing your pet with flea powder.  Your veterinarian will sell oral tablets that you can give your...

Washing your vagina the correct way is important in maintaining a healthy pH balance while also preventing infections. A normal pH level ranges from 3.5-4.5 on a scale of 0-14. To keep a regulated pH level:  Use a regular, unscented soap instead of a body wash. Don't put soap inside your vagina. Some products (such as body washes) have a pH level of 8, which throw off your normal pH level and cause itchiness, irritations, and odor. Regular soap also doesn’t contain as much alcohol content (scent) compared with body washes. External parts, such as the vulva and the labia majora (the larger outer folds of the vulva), should also be cleaned with soap and water every day.  Clean at least once a day to get rid of sweat, traces of urine and discharge that accumulates through out the day. Use a washcloth or free hand while cleaning. Rough and hard washcloths and loofahs can create small tears and expose you to infection. Avoid these and use a soft washcloth or your hand instead. Also, do not clean yourself more than once a day.  Excessive cleaning can disrupt the pH balance and lead to dryness. Douching flushes water into your vagina, cleaning out natural bacteria and secretions. You should avoid douching because:  It interferes with your pH level and reduces the acidity in your vagina. This can make you more prone to infections. It will only temporarily cover up smell instead of curing it. If you have a strong vaginal smell, consult with your doctor instead of using a douche. Products that contain perfume disrupt your vagina’s pH balance and can cause irritation.  If your concerned with the way your vagina smells consult your doctor. Vaginal odor changes at different times of the menstrual cycle so don’t always think a bad smell is a sign of infection or illness.

Wasting water is one of the biggest ways individuals impact the health of the planet. Taking measures to use less water is something you can start doing right away. If you live in an area with a water shortage, this is even more important for the health of your region's environment. Try to check off as many items as possible from this list:  Check and fix any water leaks. A leaky faucet can waste a lot of water. Install water-saving devices on your faucets and toilets. A low-flow showerhead could be a good start. Don't wash dishes with the water running continuously. Use a method that requires less water to get the dishes clean. Turn off washing machine's water supply to prevent leaks. It doesn't need to be on all the time. Replace old toilets with new ones that use a lot less water. Wash and dry only full loads of laundry and dishes. Doing a half-load wastes water. Don't use too much water to water your lawn. Don't leave the faucet running while you brush your teeth. Chemicals used to wash our bodies, homes, cars and everything else get washed down the drain or absorbed in the grass, and eventually, end up in the water supply. Since most people use heavy-duty chemicals for all sorts of things, chemicals are doing real damage to waterways and aquatic life. The chemicals aren't good for humans, either, so do your best to cut back on them. Here's how:  Learn about alternatives to household cleaning items that do not use hazardous chemicals. For example, using a solution of 1/2 white vinegar and 1/2 waterworks as well as most commercial cleaners for basic cleaning jobs. Baking soda and salt are cheap, non-toxic cleansers, but should be used in moderation. When no good alternatives to a toxic item exist, determine the least amount required for an effective, sanitary result and use a minimal amount each time you clean. Paying close attention to the requisite amount will help you reduce and also save money. Instead of using chemical-laden shampoos and soaps, try  making your own. Instead of using pesticides and...

Watch faces are measured in millimeters. Men’s watches average between 34mm-50mm, although they can be larger. You should never wear a watch bigger than 50mm, at most, but 34mm-40mm is standard and ideal for both men and women. There is no “correct” side. Choose the wrist that is most comfortable and where your watch won't get in the way of your movements. This is typically the non-dominant hand, as it might be uncomfortable to write with a watch under your wrist. Make sure that the face sits right next to the bone on the outside of the wrist (the ulna). When standing, little or none of your watch should be visible beneath your shirt cuff. When wearing a long-sleeved shirt, your watch should only be fully visible when your arm is bent. Never wear your watch on top of your shirt cuff. A watch should appear comfortable, natural, and certainly not sloppy. It may be necessary to adjust it as needed, to accommodate natural fluctuations in wrist size.  Some watches, such as dress watches and sports watches, have a prong and notch system that allows you to easily move the prong up or down a notch to tighten or loosen. Casual or formal watches can have a more complicated fastening system that requires you to adjust the size by adding or removing links. Consult the instruction manual, or ask your jeweler for help or advice on adjusting the length of your watch. A man should never wear his wristwatch loose around his wrist. It should move about an inch up and down your wrist as you move. The face of the watch should not slip to the side of your wrist. As a general rule, you should be able to fit a finger snugly between your wrist and the watch band. A wristwatch should not be worn too tightly. If the watch leaves an imprint on your wrist, it is too tight and should be loosened. Women's watches may be worn snugly, or loose around the wrist like a bracelet.

Watch for an irritated rash that's red or grey, scaly, and itchy. Your rash may become slightly raised and may form little pustules if you scratch it. These rashes are especially common in skin folds, which tend to be dark and moist.  A Candida diaper rash within the fold of the buttocks is common among infants, especially those who sit in wet or dirty diapers for too long. Fungus also commonly invades your scalp, fingernails, and toenails, as well as the area between your toes and on the soles of your feet (commonly called athlete's foot). Unlike with other rashes, yeast infections cause a musty odor. This odor is most pronounced when Candida yeast infects the inside of the mouth (called oral thrush) or vagina, but it’s also fairly noticeable when the yeast grows on your skin or within skin folds. The sweet and musty characteristic of yeast growth can sometimes be masked by or confused with regular body odors because they tend to proliferate near the underarms, groin, and buttocks. Anyone can potentially get a yeast/fungal infection because they are so common. However, people who go longer than a day between showers or who have a weak immune system are more at risk. Similarly, people who have large folds in their skin are more likely to experience a yeast infection.  The main causes of weakened immunity are age (being very young or old), chronic stress, chronic malnourishment, immune system infections such as HIV/AIDS, autoimmune disorders, diabetes, over-medication (with antibiotics or corticosteroids, for examples) and chemotherapy for cancer.  People who use public baths and swimming facilities without foot protection are also at risk of fungal infections of the feet and toenails, which can then spread to other parts of their body.

Watch for excessive scratching, which may be indicative of fleas. If you see your cat scratching himself often, you will need to perform a spot check. Get a fine toothed comb and run it through your cat’s fur. Look for little, fast-moving brown specks (which are fleas) particularly around your cat’s neck and tail.  You can also check for fleas by grooming the cat over a sheet of blank white paper. You may see fleas in the comb's teeth or flea dirt on the paper. Flea dirt is black and comma shaped. If placed on damp cotton wool it dissolves into bloody streaks. Many commercial products are available to kill fleas and remove them from your home. Ask your vet for specific recommendations. Hairballs can also cause bad breath or low appetite. Serious hairball problems may become Trichobezoars (hard lumps of matted hair and undigested foul-smelling food) and extreme cases may require surgery. Regularly groom your cat to reduce hairballs.  Other effective home remedies include adding supplements to their diet such as: Slippery Elm Bark to lubricate the hairball passage or pumpkin pulp (canned) which adds bulk fiber to stools, easing the hairball out. These items can periodically be added to treats like fish or cooked chicken/livers as a preventative for hairballs. You should consult with the veterinarian to be certain that a more serious problem is not the cause. Symptoms include increased appetite or thirst, unexplained weight loss (particularly muscle mass), nervousness or irritability, frequent vomiting, lethargy and weakness, diarrhea, or a messy coat. If two or more symptoms are present, your cat will need to see the veterinarian. Hyperthyroidism typically occurs in middle-aged to older cats and is rare in a young cat. Increased appetite is a handy warning sign that your cat needs veterinary attention. The thyroid hormone that triggers appetite also raises the metabolic rate and puts organ function under strain. Signs of diabetes include vomiting, dehydration, weakness and loss of appetite, increased thirst and...

Water ionizers attach to your faucet and are very user friendly. The water becomes electrically enhanced (ionized) because the ionizer runs it over positive and negative electrodes. Doing this separates the water into alkalized water and acidic water. The alkalized water makes up about 70% of the produced water and can be used for drinking. Don’t just discard the acidic water. Acidic water can kill many types of bacteria. You can use it for washing your body, killing some of the bacteria living on your skin. These filters are easily transportable and cheaper than buying an electric ionizer. They work in a similar fashion to a normal filter. Pour water into the filter and let it sit for three to five minutes. While you are waiting, the water is being sent through a series of filters. Once it passes through the filters, it sits in a pool of alkalizing minerals. These filters can often be found with the kitchen appliances in home stores. This type of filter is known as a hyperfilter, and it uses an especially fine membrane for filtration. The delicacy of the filter allows it to capture more elements than regular water filters, which ultimately alkalizes the water more completely. These filters can be purchased at local home improvement or hardware stores and are located alongside traditional water filters. Water distillers boil the water put into them, destroying the bacteria and other impurities that may be found in your tap water. Water distillers can make your water slightly more alkaline, but to really alkalize your water, add pH drops to your newly purified water. Water distillers range in price and size. They can be found alongside other kitchen appliances.

Water is essential for keeping you cool during hot weather.  Water keeps your body cool and should be drunk even if you don't feel thirsty.  It's okay to also drink commercial waters (such as Vitamin Water) or sports drinks such as Powerade or Gatorade but they're usually not necessary unless you're deliberately replenishing lost vitamins/electrolytes following a sporting activity.  The best way to check your hydration level is to measure your urination color.  Anything darker than straw colored is probably an indication that dehydration is on the horizon, and water is needed.  Stay away from sugary drinks such as sodas(even if they are sugar-free!); they decrease the ability of your body to store water.  Also, steer clear of alcoholic drinks, coffee, and caffeinated drinks, which are natural diuretics. Drink plenty of water before engaging in any activities.  If you wait too late, you could experience cramps, which are a sign of heat-related illness.  Remind yourself to drink water frequently with one of the following options.  Purchase a durable water bottle or water pack that you can tote everywhere and refill at any safe water tap. Freeze a bottle of water to carry around with you.  It'll be solid when you leave the house, but the heat will start melting it from the moment you take it out of the freezer.  Wrap it in a towel to prevent water condensation affecting other items in your bag. Download a water drinking app onto your phone.  Set reminders, daily targets, and even track when the last time you had a drink. Food can keep you cool provided you make the right choices. Choose salads, fresh raw food, vegetables and fruit.  “Cool as a cucumber” is literal; it is nearly 100% water, providing hydration to keep you cool.  Avoid eating meat and protein-heavy foods during the heat of the day because these can increase metabolic heat production, which can add to loss of water.  It may seem counter-intuitive, but eating spicy peppers may help cool you off.  They make you sweat, which provides a cooling...

Water is usually enough to rehydrate adults. Other options include clear broth, popsicles, Jell-O, and sports drinks that contain electrolytes. Go slow; drinking too much too fast may cause vomiting.  Try ice chips. They dissolve slowly and the cooling effect can be helpful for overheated people.  If the dehydration is the result of prolonged physical activity, consume a sports drink that contains electrolytes. When you’re dehydrated, avoid caffeine and alcohol. These have dehydrating effects on the body. Beverages such as coffee, caffeinated tea, and soda should not be taken while dehydrated. You should also avoid fruit juices, as the sugar can have a dehydrating effect by increasing urination. If you are not nauseated, try eating some fruits and vegetables with a high water content.  Watermelon, cantaloupe, grapefruit, oranges, and strawberries are very high in water content. Broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, celery, cucumbers, eggplant, lettuce, sweet peppers, radishes, spinach, zucchini, and tomatoes have very high water content. Avoid dairy if you have diarrhea or nausea along with dehydration. It can make these symptoms worse. Continue to rehydrate and rest over the next 24 hours. Drink plenty of fluids. Do not stop drinking simply because you don’t feel thirsty anymore. It can take several days to completely replace lost fluids. If you don’t feel better after rehydrating, or if you have a fever over 104°F (40°C), seek immediate medical help.

Water it whenever it is dry for the first year. It should always have moist soil. If you experience hot weather, you may need to water it several times per day. It does best with six or more hours of sunlight, but also likes to be shaded from hot afternoon sun. If you have very little sunlight in the winter, it may die back. Once it is doing well, frequent cuttings keep the plant full and the leaves strong in flavor. Cut one cm above a stem junction and below any flower buds. Don’t cut more than one-third of the leaves at one time. If you allow your mint plant to flower, it will put the nutrients into flower production and slow down leaf growth. Cut the soil into fourths, and then plant each section into a new 12-inch pot. It would be best to give them room. If you don’t divide it, the plant will suffer and the leaves will not grow steadily.

Water parks usually don’t allow guests to go into the water without swimwear. Always check the individual water park’s dress code before you begin trying on swimsuits that you may want to bring. They are the experts and have regulations in place for safety that you may not have considered. Pack swimsuits that fit well. Water slide attractions are more physical activities than swimming in a regular pool. You don’t want the suit to be loose enough to fall off or so tight that it rides up. Your bathing suit should be comfortable to walk around in – some parks don’t allow shirts or cover-ups on rides.  Don’t bring swimsuits that have zippers, buttons, belts, rivets or metal ornaments. You may not be allowed to get on certain slides with them because they can cause damage to the equipment at the water park. Furthermore, you don’t want them to get caught on anything and cause your swimsuit to tear.  Bikinis are not recommended for water parks. They tend not to stay put on water slides, and some parks even forbid skimpy bathing suits. For females, one piece swimsuits are advisable. Look for suits with straps in a sports bra style so that they don’t slide off your shoulders. Avoid suits with ties that can come undone. You may want to arrive at the park with a bathing suit under your clothes so that it’s easier to get ready in the locker room. Choose casual clothing with a top that’s easily removable. Long-sleeved shirts and coverups can reduce your exposure to the sun. Keep in mind that you may not fully dry after going on water rides. Bring a comfortable jacket or sweatshirt so that you won’t be as chilly if the weather gets cooler as the day wanes. If you’re going to an outdoor park, consider bringing a hat to help shield your face from the sun. Pack a change of clothes that will be easy to slip into later in case your clothes don’t dry. Include an extra pair of undergarments to go home in. If you’re going to divide up your day at the water park, consider bringing an extra set of bathing suits per person so that...

Water retention is a classic symptom of premenstrual syndrome (PMS). Hormonal changes associated with your menstrual cycle may cause monthly water retention problems. For most women, period bloat occurs 1 or 2 weeks before their periods begin. Water retention is also a common problem during pregnancy and menopause for the same reason. Hormonal changes that occur during these longer transition periods in the body cause excess fluid retention that may be constant, cyclical or intermittent. Your doctor may run various types of tests, such as blood or urine tests, depending on your other symptoms. These will check the health of your heart, kidneys, liver, circulatory, lymphatic, and thyroid systems. He or she may also ask you about symptoms of arthritis or allergies, both of which can also cause water retention in some cases. swelling in the feet, legs, or ankles, swelling in the abdomen, chronic coughing, or extreme fatigue.  Water retention that is heart related is a result of changes in your blood pressure. Typically, the legs, feet, and/or ankles will start to swell. Fluid will also build up in the lungs, giving the patient a chronic cough. A doctor may order blood tests, a chest X-ray, or an electrocardiogram (ECG) to determine if your water retention is a symptom of a heart condition. A urine test will determine if you are losing protein through the kidneys and your water retention is a sign of a more serious kidney problem. A physical exam and/or blood tests can determine if there is a liver problem. Again, with a more serious liver condition you would likely have swelling in the feet, legs, ankles, and abdomen. This is actually one of the first signs of liver disease. Finally, blood tests can determine if your water retention is a symptom of circulatory system problems (leaky capillaries), a congested lymphatic system, or a thyroid disease (hypothyroidism). Notice what you ate for a few days leading up to the water retention. It may take a couple of days for your body to retain excess body fluid after you...

Water several times a week throughout the summer, except when your region gets heavy rain. Water deeply from the base of the plants and allow the ground to dry out before you water again. Use compost or a balanced, all-purpose fertilizer each year in the spring. Depending on your soil conditions, you may want to fertilize them again when the flowers first begin to open. to increase flowering and air circulation. Cut off some of the oldest, largest branches as close to the ground as possible at the end of winter or after flowering in late spring. Take branches from different areas, including the center, to open the bush up where needed. Never remove more than 1/3 of the branches at any one time.  Remove diseased or damaged branches and suckers sprouting up from the base as soon as you discover them. Cut off dead flowers to prevent the plant from putting resources into forming seeds. Prune the bush again in the fall after flowering is done to shape it or remove branches with low flower production.

Water treatments are chemical formulas designed to block or remove algae.  They are typically safe for use with fish and invertebrates like snails, but will harm tadpoles.  Specific directions for use vary with the particular product you choose to use in your pond.  Always follow manufacturer directions when adding water treatments to your pond. Water treatments will need to be reapplied from time to time, so just add more as necessary when you notice algae or green water. Calcium sulfate, also known as gypsum, is useful for breaking up pond sludge that accumulates at the bottom of the pond.  Sprinkle the calcium sulfate evenly across the surface of the pond at a concentration of 525 pounds per acre-foot of water.  Calcium sulfate is readily available at most gardening centers. Calcium sulfate will not harm your fish or pond plants. With moving water, your pond will be less likely to accrue algae and grime.  You could add a fountain or waterfall to your pond.  With either fixture, ensure it is placed next to the pond so that water will return to it.  Fountains could be placed in the middle of the pond if the pond's depth does not exceed the height of the fountain. If you install a fountain or waterfall less than three feet high, the pump should be located next to the waterfall on the ground level.  If you install a waterfall five feet tall or taller, the filter should be placed just behind the waterfall at an elevation equal to its highest point. UV clarifiers are special pumps that pull pond water into a chamber where the water is exposed to ultraviolet light.  The light kills suspended algae (but not string algae) in the water and allows you to easily remove any algae detritus.  UV clarifiers can be attached to either mechanical or biological filters. UV light is harmful to human eyes, so the UV bulb will be situated within a case.  Do not disassemble or remove the case from the UV clarifier. A clarifier with 8-10 watts of UV light is appropriate for 1,000 gallons of water.

Water works to flush out toxins in your system and keep your body hydrated so that it can fight against the things that are ailing it. Although it is important to drink water on a regular basis, it is especially important to do so when you’re sick. Make sure you have a glass of water with you at all times, and that you are drinking it at least every hour. Take small sips of water or chew on ice chips if drinking a glass of water all at once is too much for you. If you're nauseous and vomiting, you’ve probably lost a lot of fluids and are having a difficult time keeping fresh ones down.  Sports drinks are enhanced with electrolytes, which your body needs for a speedy recovery. Grab your favorite flavor and take small sips after throwing up to help replenish your body’s electrolyte and fluid supplies. While many juices can be filled with sugar and flavors that are hard on an upset stomach, cranberry juice offers some nutrients without the sugary punch. Drink cranberry juice when suffering from nausea, especially when you haven’t been able to eat any food. This sweet and sour combination works to settle your stomach quickly, without a ton of necessary fluids, Mix a teaspoon of lemon juice with a teaspoon of warm honey. Slowly sip the juice-like liquid over several minutes. You can take this mixture multiple times a day if your nausea doesn’t subside. Cinnamon has been used for decades as a natural remedy for nausea and vomiting. Mix ½ teaspoon of cinnamon with a cup of hot water and allow the mixture to steep. Drink the tea slowly several times a day until your upset stomach goes away. With a similarly autumn-esque flavor to cinnamon, cloves can also help to settle an upset stomach. Brew up a cup of clove tea by mixing a cup of hot water with a teaspoon of powdered cloves. Allow the mixture to steep for several minutes before straining out any large clove chunks.

Watermelons are typically refrigerated at a temperature of 13 degrees Celsius (55 F).  Storing your fruit at 21 Celsius (70 F) will increase its lycopene and beta-carotene content (both of which are important antioxidants). A resealable bag or container is the best place for watermelon.  This will preserve its flavor and freshness. In a pinch, wrap your watermelon tightly in aluminum foil or plastic wrap. Some people advise against freezing watermelon altogether, since thawing or cutting open a frozen watermelon piece could cause the juice to drip out.  If you decide to live on the wild side and want to freeze your watermelon, place it in airtight containers or heavy-duty freezer bags.  The watermelon will stay good for 10-12 months.

Waxing can be painful, but it is quite effective at reducing body hair growth. Since the hair is removed from the root, the hair grows back finer, thinner, and slower. You can either buy wax to apply yourself at home or go to a spa or salon to get a professional wax treatment.  There are two different kinds of wax. If you are waxing at home, make sure you get hard wax for sensitive areas such as your face, underarms, and bikini area. Soft wax can be used on heartier areas, such as your legs, back, chest, and arms. You can buy wax you heat in the microwave and fabric strips in most major retailers. You can also buy premade wax strips if you don't want to deal with melting your own wax. One of the main downsides is that waxing should only be done about once every two weeks. This means that the body hair must be left to grow for that long. This can be uncomfortable at first, especially in problem areas, but over time, the hair growth should be reduced enough to make it harder to notice. If your hair growth is still too much, you can also remove the hair as well. Although there is a persistent myth that shaving makes hair grow back thicker and faster, there is no scientific fact behind this claim. Shaving an area will reduce the amount of hair for the time being while you wait for the hair to be reduced by other means. This method can cause irritation. Make sure, if you shave, to put plenty of shaving cream or lather on the area you shave in order to loosen the hair follicles and reduce skin irritation. Depilatory creams are chemical creams that dissolve the hair upon application. These creams used to smell awful and make your skin sting upon application, but developments in recent years have made many change to this method of hair removal that have made them more comfortable and pleasant to use. These creams, such as Nair, dissolve the hair above the skin. Although your hair may grow back a little faster than with waxing, the hair may be finer and lighter due to the bleaching qualities in many of these creams. ...

We all have them. 10 pm hits and we want that pizza, we're stress-eating because of work or a relationship, or we're super tired in the morning and pound that full-fat latte. What's your fix? Your guilty pleasures? What beats down on your self-control until you can't not cave to the temptations? If you know what gets your appetite out of control, you can avoid it. What are your food traps? The most common food traps are eating when we're bored or stressed. If you can be mindful of when you're eating and why, that's half the battle. If you know this is an issue for you, why not start keeping a food journal? In other words, don't stock the candies, refined grains, and other villains in the house. When they're not there, you won't eat them! You'll be forced to eat what you have available -- and you'll start craving what's there. Remove the temptation and you remove the bad choices. Don't just stick to good foods. You want to think of the drinks, too. All too often we drink away those calories, not realizing that it counts just as much as food, even though we're not full. Keep the soda to a minimum and concentrate on water and tea. " In other words, make every day a chance to find small opportunities to live healthier. Take the stairs. Park far away. Wash your own car. Remodel the kitchen yourself. Take your work lunch for a walk. 5 minutes here and there can really make the difference! And once you get used to staying "active" on a normal basis, that urge to feel lazy will go away. You'll no longer groan at the idea of tending the garden or organizing your shelves. Getting up and getting things done is just par for your healthy, lively course. This packs a powerful punch: not only will you be saving money, but you'll be saving calories, portion sizes, and knowing exactly what goes into every bite. You'll also be removing temptation from ordering that drink, appetizer, and dessert. And did we mention the whole being-able-to-cook thing? Arm yourself with a dozen or so healthy recipes.

We all know that eating the wrong thing, or eating too much of it, can cause vomiting. But how we eat food also plays a part in preventing nausea in the first place.  Eat small meals throughout the day instead of a couple big meals at long intervals. Eat slowly and chew your food before you swallow it. Avoid foods that are hard-to-digest, such as dairy, spicy, acidic, fatty, or fried foods.  Eat foods that are cold or at room temperature instead of foods that are warm or hot if you find them distasteful. Giving your body the proper time and adequate position to digest food may help keep you from feeling nauseated in the first place.  Drink liquids (preferably water) in between instead of during meals, and stay on pace to consume between 6 to 8 8-ounce glasses of water per day. Keep your head at least a foot above your feet if you decide to rest or sit down after a meal. Activity may worsen the nausea. Don't overexert yourself or engage in strenuous physical activity if you think it may lead to vomiting.

We are born naked and it is our natural state. Clothing keeps us warm and is often necessary to wear in public, but that doesn't mean it needs to be worn at all times. There's a time for letting your natural self just be. Imagine the freedom that will come with feeling the air and sun touch your skin everywhere, not just places that are normally exposed. Nudism, also called naturism, is about more than the simple act of being nude; it's also about getting closer to nature. In your natural state, there are no boundaries between yourself and the natural world. How freeing and exhilarating would it feel to lie naked on the beach, or under a tree, one with the natural world and comfortable in your own skin? People choose naturism to reach this particular height of happiness. Yes, people have sex naked, but nudity itself does not have to be sexual. Revealing clothing is often more sexually suggestive than being totally naked, since it leaves more to the imagination. If you're worried that becoming a naturist means you're opening yourself up to unwanted sexual encounters, know that for many naturists, it's about being free and natural, not lecherous.  Being a naturist is not about having public sex or exposing yourself to others. Many naturists are modest people who choose naturism for the above reasons, and not in order to sexually connect with people. That said, nudity can be pleasing to the senses in a sexual way. The feel of air or water flowing uninterrupted across your entire body awakens the senses and may be arousing. This is healthy and natural. You should not feel ashamed to have or explore these sexual feelings. Suppressing sexual feelings is unhealthy in general, and suppressing them in the context of naturism negates the healthy benefits of a naturist lifestyle.

We know that 10 * 100 = 1000. Written in terms of powers (or logarithms), 101 * 102 = 103. We also know that 1 + 2 = 3. In general, 10x * 10y = 10x + y. So, the sum of the logarithms of two different numbers is the logarithm of the product of those numbers. We can multiply two numbers of the same base by adding their powers. Use the method above to find the logarithms. For example, if you want to multiply 15.27 and 48.54, you would find the log of 15.27 to be 1.1838 and the log of 48.54 to be 1.6861. In this example, add 1.1838 and 1.6861 to get 2.8699. This number is the logarithm of your answer. You can do this by finding the number in the body of the table closest to the mantissa of this number (8699). The more efficient and reliable method, however, is to find the answer in the table of anti-logarithms, as described in the method above. For this example, you will get 741.1.
