The best defense against darkened skin is preventing it in the first place, and a proper diet is one of the best ways to do this. Eating the right foods will keep your whole body healthy, and a healthy body means healthy skin.  Eat the rainbow. To get the most vitamins and minerals possible from your diet, eat fresh fruits and vegetables of all colors. Consume foods that are high in vitamin C, which will help keep your skin more toned and elastic.  Drink enough water. Water is important for a healthy body and skin, but too much can also be dangerous. The best rule of thumb with water consumption is to listen to your body: if you’re thirsty, drink water.  Don’t shy away from healthy fats like avocado. Not only do our bodies need fat to survive, but our skin also needs it to be healthy and vibrant.  Choose fresh, homemade meals over processed foods or take-out. One of the biggest contributors to darkened skin is exposure to UVA and UVB, because the skin produces more melanin to protect itself, and more melanin means darker skin. The best way to protect yourself from the sun is to avoid it, but if that’s not an option, make sure you:  Wear sun-protective clothing, including gloves when driving. Use sunscreen or sunblock, especially on your hands and feet. Choose makeups and lip protection that have an SPF rating. Darkened skin can also be caused by things like dirt, exposure to the elements, and infections, so keeping the skin on your hands and feet clean and protected is essential to healthy skin, and will help prevent skin darkening and damage.  Avoid coming into contact with harsh chemicals if possible, as these can damage your skin. Be cautious and selective about manicures and pedicures, as improperly sterilized equipment can cause fungal infections.

The best farewell parties revolve around a specific theme that honors your guest. Themes typically highlight the next part of this person’s journey and commemorate your time together.   If your friend is moving away think about what kind of themes would work. You might want to host a "bon voyage" party that utilizes themes of travel and exploration. Maybe your party highlights some of the best local things your friend loves. In addition, you can introduce some culture and cuisines that are local to the next place your friend is going. Maybe the guest of honor is leaving work and moving to a new company. You might want to throw a party that highlights all the great work this person did at your office. Incorporate your theme into the invitations, food, decorations, etc. For example, if your friend is moving to another state or country, you could make cupcakes with that place's colors. You can even make toppers that have a map of the new location on one side and the place your friend is moving from on the other. Choose an appropriate place to hold the party. It could be at an office, a restaurant, or even at your own home. The location should be a combination of someplace easy to throw a party and a place your guest will enjoy.  For a family member going overseas for a while, home is a good choice. For a co-worker who is retiring or changing jobs, the office or a favorite local restaurant is suitable. Think about what the guest of honor would like. Remember that you’re holding the party for your friend. It should be somewhere this person will cherish. For example, if your friend is moving away you could hold a party at the bar or restaurant you all frequent. See if you can rent it out for a few hours. The location should be somewhere special and somewhat intimate. You want to be able to have a good time without other people distracting you or being distracted by you. Invite people well in advance so that most people will be free to attend. When sending out invitations, think about who the guest of honor would...

The best option is a freshly harvested pumpkin with at least 2 inches (5 cm) of stem. A long stem is important because it helps wick away moisture from the pumpkin. A pumpkin with no stem or a very short stem is more likely to retain moisture. Combine 1 to 2 Tbsp (15 to 30 mL) of mild dish detergent with 1 gallon (4 L) warm water in a large bucket. Wash the pumpkin in this solution to remove surface bacteria.  Use a mild liquid dish soap instead of a harsh cleanser. Harsh cleansers can be too abrasive. Rinse the soapy solution off the pumpkin once finished. Use a clean rag or clean paper towels to dry the pumpkin completely. This preservation method aims to dry the pumpkin out rather than keeping it moist. As such, you should manually remove as much of the moisture as possible by wiping it away. Pour a little rubbing alcohol into a spray bottle and mist the surface of the pumpkin, coating it completely without drenching it.  You could also spray the pumpkin with a household cleaner. Rubbing alcohol and household cleaners are both used to protect the surface from new bacteria and mold spores. Do not drench the pumpkin. Too much rubbing alcohol can be abrasive and might cause damage to the pumpkin. Too much could also cause moisture to build. Place the pumpkin on several layers of newspaper in a dark, warm, dry area. Let it dry out for several weeks until the pumpkin feels notably lighter.  Make sure that the area you choose has good ventilation. Otherwise, the air can become stagnant, causing moisture to build up as a result. Moisture can cause the pumpkin to rot. Warmth speeds up the drying process and darkness preserves the color. You could also place the pumpkins beneath an electric fan to speed the drying process further. Change the newspaper every few days. As it absorbs the moisture of the pumpkin, it will become damp. This dampness can cause your pumpkin to rot if it is not removed. In addition to feeling lighter, you should also be able to hear seeds rattling around inside the pumpkin when you pick it...

The best place to give your partner a romantic massage is on the floor, as a bed can be too springy.  Lay a duvet or a soft blanket on the floor. You can also have your partner sit in a chair, a la the massage scene between Patrick Swayze and Demi Moore in the film Ghost.  Keep some small pillows close by to ensure your partner is lying comfortably during the massage. If you have access to an indoor fire, get it going to warm up the room. Look for music you know your partner would enjoy or music you find soothing and calming. The most popular massage oil is sweet almond oil as it glides easily on the skin, doesn’t get absorbed too quickly and is thin and light. Other oils like olive oil, coconut oil, grapeseed oil, avocado oil also work well for a massage. Each of these different oils offer unique therapeutic benefits that can enhance and improve the effects of a certain type of body massage.  To warm up the oil, pour the oil into a metal container and place it in a pot of water on the stove. Turn the stove to low heat and let the oil warm up.  You can also rub the massage oil between your hands right before the massage to warm up the oil. Always check the temperature of the oil to ensure it is not too hot before you use it for the massage. You don’t want to burn your partner’s skin and turn a sensual experience into a painful one!

The best questions are neither too open-ended nor too limited. "Yes or No" questions halt discussion, while overly broad questions (such as "What do you think about Romeo and Juliet?") questions also tend to discourage discussion. The best questions are balanced; they are open enough that there seem to be a few good answers, yet closed enough that people know how to approach them, and feel motivated to start talking. For example, suppose you're discussing Romeo and Juliet. You may start by asking, "In what ways does the Friar make mistakes in guiding Romeo? In what ways does he succeed?" This question doesn't feed any answers, but leads students in a productive direction. As the discussion leader, you should come into the meeting with several "big" questions. Be prepared to ask the next one when discussion dies down, when people need more food for thought. The more prepared you feel when you walk into a classroom, the more confident you'll look. If you look confident in your ideas and your approach, students will be more likely to respect you and to cooperate.  It can be helpful to give participants 1-2 questions in advance to give them more time to provide thoughtful contributions when the discussion comes. Also, it can be helpful to give participants the questions you'll discuss in class, on paper, or on the board. Some students learn better and think more effectively if they have the questions out in front of them. This can also be an excellent reminder of the main question for the day. In a 2 hour discussion, 2-5 good questions should suffice. It is also good to have 2 or 3 smaller sub-questions for each main question. However, you should prepare for at least 1.5 times as much material as you think you'll cover, just in case students are particularly reticent that day or in case one line of inquiry wasn't as fruitful as you thought it was. Everyone knows how to have a conversation; but a thoughtful discussion is more intentional and more focused than just a chat.  If you want to start the conversation off...

The best response in an emergency situation is to follow the emergency plan of your home or workplace. Certain people may be identified as emergency leaders, with special training. In an emergency, you will save necessary time and energy by following the plan and your designated leader, even if you don't fully agree with them.  Your emergency plan should have an assembly place to gather once you've evacuated the home or building. Keep emergency phone numbers posted near the phone. Important medical data should be stored in your phone or your wallet. You'll need to know your location in order to tell any emergency dispatcher where to send help. While it may be easy to know the address of your home, it's also important to memorize the address of your workplace. Get into the habit of checking the address wherever you are.  If you don't know the physical address, be ready to say the name of the street you're on and any nearby intersections or landmarks. If your cell phone has GPS, you can use it to determine your physical address. However, this wastes much needed time in an emergency. Always be aware of the exits to any building you're in, whether they're home, office, or commercial locations. Identify at least 2 exits, in case one is blocked. In a workplace or public location, exits should be clearly marked.  Choose two places where you can regather with your family or coworkers. One location should be outside the home or workplace. The other location should be outside the immediate vicinity, in case the neighborhood is unsafe. Emergency exits should be physically accessible, according to ADA laws. Having a first aid kit isn't helpful unless you have training to use it. Having training to properly apply bandages, compresses, tourniquets and other tools will help in an emergency. The Red Cross regularly offers these courses in most areas of the US.  Many Red Cross courses are also offered online. First aid courses can be age specific. If you have children, or just want to know how to help children in case of an...

The best thing that you can do to increase your rankings with Google is to run a quality website. Hire a professional designer to create your page if you can (and if you can't, be sure to at least avoid having it look like it was made in 1995). You'll also want to focus on the quality of the text. Google likes to see lots of text with correct grammar and spelling. It will also need to be exactly what people are looking for when they read the preview of your site: if you bait and switch them or they otherwise immediately leave and look for something else, your rankings will be docked. You'll be docked for duplicating your content over different pages of your site and you'll also be docked for stealing someone else's content. It's not a matter of getting caught by a person, Google's bots do all the heavy lifting. Just focus on creating quality content that's all your own. Google also looks for images and pictures (image quality will also play a role!). Find and create images that match your text and add to the experience. Don't steal the images though! This can hurt your rankings. Use Creative Commons images or take your own! Use your company’s original photos to show the work culture. Get high quality stock photos for your website. Use Google Analytics to find the best keywords for your business (this process is described in the "Using Google" section below). Then, use those keywords in your text. Don't overload the text with the keyword; Google will notice and dock you. But you should use it at least several times.

The best thing you can do for a friend who attempted suicide is simply to be there to support them. Just offering hugs, a shoulder to cry on, and an ear to talk to can help your friend move on. Let your friend know that you are available for phone calls or spending time together. It's okay if your friend doesn't want to talk about the attempt. They may not be as expressive as they were in the past or may just feel numb. Don't let that stop you from spending time together. Your company might be all they need.  You don't have to bring up the suicide attempt, but you should be there for your friend if they want to talk about it. If the attempt was recent, offer support by asking what you can do to help them, and let them know that you are glad they're still here. It may be hard for you to understand why your friend would make an attempt on their life. You'll probably have many different feelings about the attempt such as anger, shame, or guilt. But, being considerate of your friend's circumstances will be the most helpful. Try to understand the immense pain that was behind the attempt, whether it be pain from depression, pain from trauma, feelings of hopelessness, a recent loss or stressful event, feeling overwhelmed, illness, addiction or feeling isolated. Realize your friend is in emotional pain, regardless of the exact cause. You may never fully understand the things that were going through a person's brain before a suicide attempt. But, if you care about your friend and the attempt happened recently, you can do your best to try to understand the pain they must have been in. Sometimes, the best thing you can do for your friend is just to sit back and listen. Give him or her space to express what they need to. Try to avoid interrupting or trying to "solve" problems. Don't compare your friend's situation to your own, or to another person's, and try to remember that what they're experiencing is unique to them. Give your friend your full attention by removing distractions. This will show your friend that you care...

The best thing you can do to improve your grades is focus and pay attention when the information is first presented to you. It's easy to lose focus when your teacher is going on and on about something that's  not interesting, but you should not tune them out. Really listen to what they're saying and keep yourself engaged by asking questions and taking notes. . It might seem silly, but notes are actually a great way to help you improve your grades. Good notes are like a road map, when you go to study later on. They'll also show your teachers that you're serious about doing better in your classes. You don't have to write down everything your teacher says: just get down the basics. You know when you tell your parents about what happened to you during the day? That's how you should take notes. Just get the broad strokes, with the really important things written with greater detail.  If you know something is confusing to you or seems really complex, write that down too! Even if you don't understand what your teacher is saying, you'll have a note to yourself that you need to look that up and get more information later. Write out your notes by hand, instead of on a computer. You will have an easier time remembering them this way. When you don't understand a concept or fact that your teachers talks about in lecture or that you encounter in your text books, don't be afraid to ask! Smart people don't just know everything instantly...they're curious enough to ask and find out when they don't know something.  If you're nervous about asking in front of everyone else, you can also talk to your teacher outside of class time and ask about getting some extra help or explanation. You also shouldn't feel like your teacher would be angry about you not understanding. Teachers are happy when you're interested enough and invested enough to ask for help. If your teacher doesn't explain it in a way that you can understand or if you still feel uncomfortable, try going on the Internet to find a new explanation. You can often find...

The best time to plant cilantro depends on where you live. Cilantro won't survive in frosty conditions, but it doesn't like extreme heat either. In temperate climates, the best time to start planting cilantro is in late spring, between the months of March and May (Northern Hemisphere). In more tropical climates, cilantro will grow better during cooler, dry times of year, such as fall.  You may also have success by planting cilantro late in the summer and allowing it to grow into the fall. If the weather becomes too hot, the cilantro plants will start to bolt - which means they will flower and go to seed, so choose your time of year wisely. To get a head start on the weather, try starting your seeds indoors and then transfer them outside as the weather improves. Select a patch of soil where the cilantro will get full exposure to the sun. It will tolerate some shade in southerly areas where the sun gets very hot during the day. The soil should be light and well-drained with a pH of 6.2 to 6.8. If you wish to cultivate the soil before planting, use a shovel, rototiller or spade to work 2 to 3 inches (5.1 to 7.6 cm) of an organic mulch such as compost, rotten leaves or manure into the top layer of soil. If you are using manure, make sure the manure is composted or aged for at least 3 months so it doesn't burn the young plants. Rake the area smooth before planting. Sow the seeds about 1⁄4 inch (0.6 cm) deep, spaced 6 to 8 inches (15.2 to 20.3 cm) apart, in rows approximately 1 foot (0.3 m) apart. Cilantro seeds need plenty of moisture to germinate, so make sure to water them frequently. They need about an inch of water per week. They should germinate in about 2 to 3 weeks. As cilantro grows so quickly, you should plant a new batch of seeds every 2 to 3 weeks to ensure that you have a fresh supply of cilantro throughout the growing season. Once the seedlings have reached about 2 inches (5.1 cm) in height, you can fertilize them with compost or organic fertilizer. Be careful not to over-fertilize, you only need...

The best time to propagate a succulent is when the plant develops a long, woody stem at the bottom. This often occurs because the plant isn't getting enough light, so it grows taller and the leaves begin to space out to reach more light.  A succulent with a long stem is called a leggy plant. Take leaves from the bottom of the plant, and leave the younger and smaller growth near the top. Your propagation attempt will have a better chance of succeeding if you start with healthy mother leaves. To find healthy leaves to propagate, look for succulent leaves that:  Are uniformly colored with no discoloration Aren't ripped or torn Don’t have any spots or marks Are full and plump looking The best way to remove a leaf for propagation is to gently remove it with your fingers. Grab a healthy leaf with your thumb and forefinger. Hold the leaf firmly but gently near the base, where it attaches to the stem. Twist it back and forth slightly, and delicately wiggle it back and forth until it comes off. Hold the leaf by the base to prevent breakage. The entire base of the leaf must come off the stem, otherwise it will die. After you remove the leaves from the stem, lay them out on a towel or parchment-lined baking sheet. Place them somewhere warm in indirect sunlight to dry. Leave them for three to seven days, until the wound heals and a callous or scab forms where the leaf was removed from the stem. If you place the cut leaves in soil before the wounds heal, they will rot and die before they grow into new plants.

The best tomatoes to use for making juice are ripe heirloom tomatoes that taste delicious raw. If a slice of the tomato has great flavor and texture, the juice will come out tasting great, too. Look for tomatoes at the peak of tomato season at your local produce market or farmer's market. Keep in mind that you should be looking for juicy, sandwich or salad tomatoes, rather than paste tomatoes.  Organic tomatoes are better to use than commercially-grown tomatoes that use pesticides. You don't want to be able to taste chemicals in your juice. You can choose one variety or a combination. Early Girl and Big Boy varieties produce more juice, while Roma tomatoes produce thicker juice (if using Roma tomatoes (paste tomatoes), you may want to combine them with some other, juicier tomato varieties). You do not want them to return to room temperature, but they should be cool enough to reduce the risk of accidental burns. Store it for at least 30 minutes before serving. Stir the juice well before drinking. Your tomato juice can last up to one week when kept refrigerated in a tightly-sealed container.

The best way to avoid a scar is to prevent infection.  Proper care in the first two weeks of the wound is the best approach to reduce scarring. It can be very tempting to pick at scabs as they heal.  They are often itchy and unsightly.  However, it is much better to cover them with ointment and keep them moist.  Picking at scabs will make scarring much worse. Direct sunlight on a sensitive healing area can cause the area to darken and may make scarring worse.  If the wound is completely closed, you can apply sunscreen to the area.  Before it has completely closed, you may need to avoid sunlight in other ways, like wearing a hat, covering the area, or staying inside. Silicone gel sheets are thin, clear sheets that you apply directly over the cut.  These will help keep the wound moist and clean, and encourage quick and healthy healing.  You can find them at most medical supply stores.

The best way to avoid being embarrassed on the dance floor is to appear confident, even if you are not. Hold your head up and keep your back straight. This will give you a look of confidence. Make sure to always smile and enjoy yourself on the dance floor. This will make you appear confident in your dancing abilities. Avoid looking at the ground and hunching forward. This makes you seem shy and uncomfortable. A drink or two can help to loosen you up and give you enough confidence to hit the dance floor. However, if you get too drunk, you may actually end up embarrassing yourself. When you are drunk your inhibitions are lowered and you are more likely to test out some new flashy dance moves. You will also have less control over your body and could bump into other people or fall on the ground. You may be nervous to dance because you’re worried that other people will judge your dance moves. You don’t need to be music-video ready to hit a dance floor at a bar or other social event. Just try to blend in with the crowd. Most people are too concerned about how they look while dancing to even notice your dancing style. If you are worried about embarrassing yourself while dancing, then you should stick to basic moves. Don’t try and pull off a wild move that you saw on your favourite dance competition show. Leave that to the professionals and stick to moves you know will look good. For example, avoid breakdancing, krumping, or any style of dance that may draw attention. Similarly, avoid flashy moves like the moonwalk. You probably won’t be able to pull it off with as much swagger as Michael Jackson. You are more likely to feel comfortable dancing if you are surrounded by your friends. This way you won’t feel like all eyes are on you. Similarly, if you dance with a partner, you can think about them rather than focus on whether or not people are judging you. If you are dancing in a group, make sure to respect the space of those around you. Avoid flailing your arms or stepping on other people’s toes.

The best way to avoid fake watches is to buy exclusively from authorized dealers. While it’s more expensive than buying secondhand, you’re much more likely to make a legitimate purchase. When you buy the watch new, it will come with all of the paperwork and serial numbers verifying its authenticity. To find an authorized dealer of your favorite watch, do an online search or talk to the manufacturer. If you're buying the watch secondhand or at an auction, check the serial number with the manufacturer before purchasing it. Note that designer watch manufacturers keep careful records on the different watches they make. Therefore, if the watch you're buying is genuine, you will be able to find documentation on it. To check the serial number, do an online search or call a customer service representative. If you're worried that the deal you're getting is too good to be true, take the watch to a professional appraiser before buying it. If the seller is being honest with you, they will have no problem letting you get the watch appraised. To find an appraiser in your area, do an online search or talk to a fine watch distributor.  Ask the appraiser to determine whether or not the designer watch is real. If they say it's real, have the appraiser walk you through their reasons for believing so. Additionally, the appraiser may be able to tell you whether or not you're getting a fair price.

The best way to be more comfortable and better at kissing is to practice first. It seems like obvious advice but it really does help. You can practice on your hand, with another object, or with another person. Keep in mind, you might not want to kiss another person because if you are already attached to girl you want to kiss or kiss her really soon after and she finds out, she might be upset. The girl doesn't want to taste garlic or other icky flavors after the kiss, as this can be a major turn off. Before the date or when you see her, brush your teeth and tongue and use mouth wash! To maintain good breath try drinking water on the date instead of soft drinks. You can also suck on a mint or chew minty gum for a few minutes midway through the date. If you are at a restaurant, bring along your favorite breath freshener. Excuse yourself after dinner and go to the bathroom. Freshen your breath and then, to make sure your breath smells good, hold your hand up to your face, breathe, and smell. This can help set the mood. Tell her that what she is wearing looks pretty; she will appreciate it! If she playfully punches you a lot or teases you in a friendly manner, then she wants you to touch her. Stay in safe territory like quickly grabbing her hand when you want to go show her something; she will appreciate not having to do the whole awkward looking at each other and blushing thing.  If you are brave you could put your arm around her waist when you two are laughing and say something playful like "You're so cute!" Offer to give her a piggyback ride, or tickle her a little if she likes it. Don't do this constantly, and when you do it, do it respectfully. Don't grab her breasts or butt. Flirting will make her more open to kissing you. Think of kissing as reaching the top of a mountain. You have to hike a little to get to the top. Getting good timing will make it a lot easier. A good time for a kiss is at the end of a date, when you're generally saying goodbye, when you're out for a walk, or after you've just finished...

The best way to begin a project like a portfolio is to find other successful portfolios online and use those as your guide. This doesn't mean copy the format, or follow the portfolio piece by piece, but it means to use it as a reference as you being making yours.  Note how the artist organized his or her pieces. Pay attention to the style and design of the portfolio. Are your eyes drawn more to the design of the portfolio or are you drawn to the art?   If it feels intimidating or daunting to look at other portfolios, remember that only the best work is what is displayed. Art is made up of technical skill as well as creativity, so even if your technical skill isn't as advanced as those you see, your creativity can make up for it. A university and an art gallery may have very different ideas about what they would like to see in your portfolio or the design of your portfolio. It's important that as you begin assembling and organizing your portfolio that you keep the audience in mind.  For example, if submitting your work to an art gallery, visit the gallery and make sure your work will fit in well in the gallery. Choose pieces, design, and organization of your portfolio that show you are familiar with the gallery and are aware of the art they carry.  If applying to a university or job, always look up the requirements for the portfolio, but tailor your portfolio to the type of institution as well. You may be applying to a more prestigious art university that values technique and style, or maybe you are applying to a school that places a higher emphasis and creativity and experimentation. Keep these things in mind as you design and organize your portfolio. Group pieces by style, subject, media, technique, etc. You want to make it as easy as possible for your reviewer to find the important information, or to determine if you are a good fit for their institution. By organizing your pieces you will give your reviewer an easy path to follow. You want your portfolio to tell a story.  Group by medium. It's valuable to...

You want to be sure it is made of material that will be harder than the quartz and gold you're crushing, such as steel or cast-iron. The crushing and panning method will destroy your piece of quartz. Make sure you're okay with destroying your quartz before starting crushing and panning. Place your piece of quartz in the mortar, or bowl of your mortar and pestle set. Press hard on it with the pestle until pieces start to break off. Crush these smaller pieces up until you have a dust of quartz and gold mixed together. If you end up breaking off larger pieces that are only quartz, you can separate these out and focus only on the areas that have gold-colored particles. Commercially produced gold pans can be found for about $10 or less online. Take your crushed powders and mix them with water in a large tub. Then dip your gold pan into the water, trying to get as much powder into it as you can. Use a circular motion to swirl the water around in your gold pan. Real gold, because it is heaviest, will settle down to the bottom of the pan. Other lighter particles of quartz will rise to the top.  Empty the water with lighter quartz powders into a different container by tipping the gold pan slightly and set this aside to dispose of later. You may have to repeat this step multiple times to get the gold to settle at the bottom. Have patience! If the gold-colored dust never settles to the bottom, and instead rises to the top of the gold pan with the other quartz powder, unfortunately it was not real gold to begin with. After spending time sifting the powders, you may begin to see gold particles and flakes at the bottom of your pan. Remove these pieces with tweezers and place them in a glass vial to take them to an assayer to determine how much they are worth. If you have other pieces of black sand in the bottom of your pan mixed with your gold dust, use a strong magnet to separate those out from the gold before putting the gold...

The best way to deal with keloids is to avoid getting them in the first place.  People who already have keloids, or who are very prone to getting them, can take special precautions with skin injuries to prevent keloid scares from forming. Pay attention to even minor skin injuries, and make sure that any wounds are thoroughly cleaned.  Apply an antibiotic cream and bandage to any open wounds, and change the bandage frequently.  Wear loose clothing over the injury site that will not irritate the skin further. The silicon gel sheets mentioned above work well to prevent keloids from forming. Piercings and even tattoos can lead to keloids in some individuals.  If you have developed keloids in the past, or have a family history of keloids in your family, you may want to avoid piercings and tattoos, or consult with a dermatologist before proceeding.

The best way to defrost crab is to let it sit, covered, inside the refrigerator overnight. Crab legs can also be thawed by running them under cold water for a few minutes. Even if you do not need to run the crab legs under cold water to thaw them, doing so could also help remove any remaining ice crystals or slime. Pat dry with clean paper towels before using. Arrange the crab legs in even layers inside the slow cooker and add enough water to just barely cover them.  You will need to create multiple layers of crab legs, but these layers should at least be even. Due to the shape of the crab legs, an oval slow cooker usually works better than a round one. You only need enough water to cover the crabs. Too little or too much could be result in crab legs that are too dry or not sufficiently heated. Melt the butter in a small bowl and stir in the garlic powder and dill.  If you prefer a stronger garlic taste, you can use 4 cloves of minced garlic instead of concentrated garlic powder. Since the crab legs are being cooked slowly, the flavors of the seasonings have a greater opportunity to permeate the thick shell of the legs and flavor the meat beneath. Pour the melted butter mixture over the crab legs in the slow cooker. Try to spread the butter over as many of the crab legs as possible. You can toss them to coat the crab more thoroughly, but this is not necessary. Cover the slow cooker and cook the crab legs until they are steaming hot and nearly melting inside their shells. It you did not have time to thaw your crab legs and are cooking them straight from a frozen state, add another 30 minutes to the cooking time. Use tongs to remove the crab legs from the slow cooker. Transfer them to a serving platter and enjoy while hot. If desired, you can serve the crab legs with additional melted butter or lemon wedges.

The best way to figure out what kind of vaginitis you have is to see a doctor. If you experience any abnormal discharge or vulvar symptoms, they should be checked by a physician.  You should also see the doctor if you’re sexually active and could have an STI, the discharge is malodorous, you have atrophic symptoms and are of perimenopausal or menopausal age, or if you have a sexual partner, either male or female, with trichomoniasis. When you go to the doctor, she will perform a pelvic exam to examine the vaginal vault and the vulva to check for inflammation and swelling and obtain a sample of discharge for examination. She will also examine your cervix to determine if there is any discharge coming from the cervix itself, indicating a cervicitis, which can be a STI such as chlamydia or gonorrhea. She may take swabs from the cervix or have you submit a urine specimen to double check for these STIs. BV is a disturbance of the natural balance of the vagina. It occurs when the bacterial flora become disrupted and the pH of your vaginal flora is higher than normal. This often develops in women who use douches, have multiple sexual partners, and who smoke. There is one main symptom of BV. You will have a white, milky discharge that has a fishy odor. The best way to diagnosis BV is through a test done by your doctor. She will take a sample of the discharge for microscopic examination in the office. Under microscopic exam, there is the presence of Clue cells, which are bacteria-coated cells. She might also perform a whiff test, which is where she will check for the characteristic fishy smell. Once you have been positively diagnosed with BV, you will receive treatment for it from your doctor. Treatment typically consists of oral metronidazole tablets such as Flagyl. You should take a 500 mg tablet twice daily for one week.  You can also use Flagyl Gel, which is a topical treatment. You use one applicator of gel a day at bedtime for one week. A similar but newer antibiotic, tinidazole, or Tindamax, may also be...

The best way to gradually and safely lower your resting heart rate is to introduce regular aerobic exercise into your routine. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) recommends healthy adults get 150 minutes of moderate intensity aerobic activity (brisk walking) per week and muscle strengthening activity 2 days or more per week. Muscle strengthening activities should work all major muscle groups (legs, hips, back, abdomen, chest, shoulders, and arms).  For a healthier heart, aim for 40 minutes of moderate to vigorous exercise three or four times a week. Include stretching and flexibility exercises such as yoga. Try to combine this with muscle strengthening exercises twice a week. To really target your resting heart rate, you can tailor your exercise routine so that you aim for a target heart rate when you are exercising. This way you can track the intensity of the exercise and how hard your heart is working, gradually increasing it as you become fitter. To do this you need to determine your maximum heart rate. All of the safe methods for this are approximations, but they can give you a general picture.  One basic method is just subtract your age from 220.  So if you are 30, your maximum heart rate will be approximately 190 beats per minute. This method is considered more accurate for those under 40. A slightly more complicated recent method is to multiply your age by 0.7, and then subtract that figure from 208. With this technique a 40-year-old has a maximum heart rate of 180 (208 - 0.7 x 40). Once you know an approximate value for your maximum heart rate you can determine the target heart rate zones for your exercise. By exercising within your target heart rate zone you can keep better track of how hard your heart is working and organise your exercise regime more precisely.  As a general rule heart rate during moderate activities is about 50-69% of your maximum heart rate. When you are first starting to work out, you should aim to keep your heart rate in this, the lower range of your target zone.  Hard and...

The best way to have a fulfilling life is to spend your time doing things that you genuinely care about. Consider whether you are interested in art, science, politics, or the environment. Think about what you want your life's legacy to be. How do you want to impact the world around you? These questions will help you find the right career path for you.  Learn to distinguish between your hobbies and your bigger interests. Just because you like to play guitar, doesn't necessarily mean you should pursue music as a career. But if you eat, sleep and breathe guitar, then continue to practice and perfect your craft and pursue your dream. Don't give up on your hobbies. Just because your passion isn't lucrative, doesn't mean you can't or shouldn't partake in it. In fact, the opposite is true. Life is about learning to balance work and fun, and giving up either will be detrimental to your emotional health. Remember that if you have never worked at anything, you won't be able to appreciate the free time you have to partake in hobbies or spend time with friends. If you want to reach your full potential, you will have to devote time to strengthening the talents you already have, and uncovering any hidden talents that you haven't discovered yet.  Take classes or private lessons in subjects that you are interested in, even if you have no previous experience. You never know when that one elective will open the door to an entirely new career that you had never considered. Don't be discouraged if you realize that you are not skilled at something. Remember that even recognizing what you are not good at is still a step in the right direction, pointing you toward what you are good at. Once you have set your mind to doing something, follow through with it. Be prepared for obstacles, and don't expect immediate results. All good things take time and hard work, but it will be well worth it in the end when you achieve your goals. Remember that at the end of your life, you are much more likely to regret the things you didn't do than the...

The best way to have a good relationship is to be honest. Ask her openly how she feels, and be willing to work through any problems if you want to stay together. Give her your full attention, and participate in the conversation.  Rephrase what she says and repeat it back to show you understand "Just to be sure I understand, you're saying...." Allow her to speak without interrupting or arguing. Ask questions to clarify and elaborate on what she is saying. Through honest communication you can discover the root of a problem if one exists. Once she's shared her feelings you'll be able to determine how to move forward in your relationship.  There may be nothing wrong and you're overthinking things. If she is ready for things to end, bringing up the problems may make it easier to handle. If she's upset and you want things to work, you'll know what you need to change to keep her happy. If she is always sad, she may not want to be with you any more. Be sure to ask her though as she might have something else in her lif that is going on.

The best way to ignite a healthy jealousy in your boyfriend is to show him that you don't need him to have fun. Have a great time with your friends and if he asks you about it later tell him how much you missed hanging out with them and how you desperately need your "girl time." You want to give him the impression that you're perfectly happy and having fun without his presence.  Call your friends, head out to a club, or do something that you all enjoy together. Have a girls' night out. If you're feeling neglected by your boyfriend, spending time without him is a great way to make him miss you, but it's also a good opportunity to distract you from any hurt you may be feeling by his neglect. Don't just "use" friends to make your boyfriend jealous. No one wants to be friends with someone they feel is just using them to make others jealous. Take time to care for your friends and do actually spend a lot of time with them -- you want them to still be around if your relationship ends. If the reason you want to make your boyfriend jealous is because he's making you jealous by talking or texting with other girls, then the first thing you need to do is stay calm. If he's trying to get a rise out of you, going on a rant and getting angry is exactly what he wants you to do. Instead, be chill and act like you're above it.  It's possible that your boyfriend is flirting with other girls and doesn't even realize it, so give him the benefit of the doubt and try talking to him about it if it's really bothering you. Make sure the conversation with him is very gentle and understanding, not accusatory or heated. If you see him talking to other girls and he just want to get a rise out of you, the best way to respond is to act like nothing strange is happening. Go talk to someone else, or if he's talking to a girl right in front of you, jump into the conversation and be super friendly with her. This will probably throw him off because it shows that you don't care if he talks to other girls. Also, if this is the way your boyfriend...

The best way to inspire your staff to work harder or push through a rough period is to lead by example. Take on more work than you have to and help them with their own work when you can. An active manager who works right alongside them is more inspiring than one who just sits behind a desk. Make sure that their needs are met. Show them that you care about their personal well-being. When they do something that's worthy of recognizing, recognize it. Promote them when they deserve it. All of this makes them want to do more for you because they know that you're going to fight for them. Get them invested in the work that they do. Make them proud of the product they make or the service they offer. If they take pride in what they do, they'll be much more likely to work hard and strive for perfection. When you promise them something or give them an incentive, you have to make good on that promise. Failing to meet expectations will only make them wary of your future promises and they'll be unlikely to take incentives seriously any more.

The best way to make a substitute nest for the baby bird is to get a covered cardboard box, such as a shoebox, which you’ll need to punch a number of holes in the bottom of. Place a small plastic or wooden bowl into the box and line it with undyed paper towel. This will make a nice, snuggly nest for the baby bird.  Never line the nest with stringy or shredded bedding as these can wrap around the baby’s wings and throat. You should also avoid using grass, leaves, moss or twigs as these can be damp and easily become mouldy. You should change the chicks bedding whenever it becomes damp or soiled. If the chicks feel damp or chilled you will need to warm them up as soon as you place them in the box. You can do this in a number of ways. If you have a heating pad, you can set it to a low heat and place the box on top. Alternatively, you can fill a ziplock bag with warm water and place it in the box or hang a 40 watt bulb above the box.  It is very important to maintain the bird’s nest at a regular temperature, so it is probably best to keep a thermometer in the box. If the baby is less than a week old (eyes closed, no feathers) the temperature should be around 95 °F (35 °C). This can be reduced by 5 degrees with every passing week. It is also important that you keep the box in an area away from direct sunlight and drafts. This is because newly hatched baby birds are very susceptible to chilling and overheating, as they have a large body surface relative to their weight and have not yet developed insulating feathers. Baby birds will not thrive unless they are kept in a calm, low-stress environment. When baby birds are stressed, their heart rate rises significantly, which is harmful to their health. As a result, the box should be kept in a quiet environment, inaccessible to pets and children. You should also avoid exposing the baby bird to the following:  Excessive or improper handling, loud noises, incorrect temperatures, overcrowding (if you have more than one chick), disorganized feeding schedules or incorrect...

The best way to overcome social anxiety is by confronting it head-on. Talking to strangers is like any other skill: the more you do it, the better you get at it. With enough practice, it will feel completely natural to you. You won't even have to think about how to manage conversations with strangers. The best way to practice is to set weekly goals.   Don't overwhelm yourself! If you find talking to strangers overwhelming, take it slow at the beginning. You might begin by promising yourself that you'll talk to two strangers in a week. Add one person each week. Keep pushing yourself, though! There's a fine line between taking on too much and not taking on enough. While you don't want to overwhelm yourself, you also don't want your fear to hold you back. Get out of your comfort zone. That’s right — don’t invite anyone along. Put yourself in a social situation where you won't know anyone else. Without any friends to hide behind, you'll be more likely to put yourself out there. Keep these outings low-stakes. If you don't talk to anyone the first couple times, that's fine! You still went out and were among strangers, which you never would have done before! Look for events around town where you'll be able to start conversations with strangers:  Art shows Book readings Music concerts Museum exhibitions Outdoor festivals Geek gatherings Parades/rallies/protests If the idea of talking to a stranger on your own is too much, enlist the help of a more outgoing friend. With her help, you can practice talking to strangers while still having a familiar face to make you feel comfortable. Don't let your friend carry the entire conversation, though. Make sure she knows that you want to contribute more than you might normally contribute. If you obsess over all the ways things can go wrong before you start a conversation with a stranger, you're setting yourself up to fail. The more you think about it, the more anxious you'll get. When you see someone you want to talk to, break the ice immediately, before you have a chance to...

The best way to prevent blind pimples is proper face hygiene. This means you should wash your face and areas with pimples twice a day. You may want to take a bath or shower once a day to remove dirt and oil from your entire body.  Always wash your face after any activities where you sweat a lot. Avoid touching your face as well because this can introduce bacteria to the skin on your face. If you are having trouble with blind pimples under your skin, cleanse your face with a gentle, plant-oil based product. When choosing a face wash, look for one labeled non-comedogenic. Non-comedogenic products do not lead to the formation of pimples.  Examples of non-comedogenic products include Neutrogena, Cetaphil, and Olay. Many store-brand products or generic products are also non-comedogenic. Always check the label to make sure. Use alcohol-free products on your face because alcohol irritates and may damage the skin. When you wash your face, use your fingertips to wash. Washcloths and sponges may irritate the skin, which can lead to more problems. Massage the face wash gently in a circular motion. Avoid scrubbing your face. This can cause scarring.

The best way to read more is to make yourself excited to read, and the best way to get excited about reading is to get excited about ideas.  Explore. Turn over every book that you see and read the back cover. Open it up and read the first few lines. Find something that piques your interest and pursue it. If you are genuinely intrigued by the subject matter--if you let yourself get hooked--you may hardly be able to stop yourself from turning pages. Reading is an edifying habit, but it can also be deeply joyful and wildly exciting. You are reading in order to fill your brain with ideas and information: so what do you want to think about?  Consider reading nonfiction books: history, politics, science, economics. This is a great way to get yourself thinking more deeply about the systems and patterns that are woven through the world around you. Read widely and variably, or pick a subject matter and delve deeply into it. Consider reading classic literature: anything from Shakespeare to Hemingway to Kerouac. Books that are labeled "literature" tend to illuminate the human condition. Read about triumphs and tragedies, joys and sorrows, exquisite details and broad truths, and you may gain insight into your own situation. Consider reading the news: you can subscribe to a local newspaper or read about current events online. News articles vary from the conveniently brief to the deliciously in-depth, and they can provide fantastic fodder for meaningful conversation. Stay up to date with current events and plug in to the world. Consider reading "genre" stories: fantasy, science fiction, romance, vampires. Pulp fiction is a great way to inflame the imagination with an air of excitement and mystery--or perhaps simply escape the mundane realities of everyday life. Read poetry; philosophy; magazines; fan-fiction; wikiHow articles; anything that excites your imagination and beckons you deeper. Ask people about books that they have found particularly insightful or well-written.  You may find that certain books and articles come...

The best way to sterilize the needle before using it is with flame. Hold the needle over the flame of a candle or a lighter until it glows. Make sure you hold the other end with tongs, or you'll burn your fingertips. Once the needle is sterile, wrap it in cotton thread.  Start about 1⁄8 inch (0.3 cm) away from the tip and wrap the thread back and forth about 1⁄4 inch (0.6 cm) up the needle until the thread has formed an oval shape. This will absorb some of the ink as you dip your needle into the saucer. Dip the needle into the India ink and then poke it through your skin, leaving a small dot. There may be some blood after several layers of poking, but there shouldn't be much.  If blood is dripping/excessive, stop immediately and sterilize. Hold a clean paper towel, not cloth, onto the tattoo until it stops bleeding . Stay inside the line of the tattoo design you've drawn, filling it in with tiny punctures. Use a cotton swab or a rag to wipe away any blood or excess ink. The skin may swell up a bit as you poke it which may cause the resulting tattoo to appear spotty. You may have to do touch-ups when the swelling goes down if you want smooth lines throughout the tattoo. Wait to do touch ups until after the tattoo is completely healed, which can take up to two months. When you finish the tattoo, wipe down the area with soapy water. Throw away any remaining India ink in the ink cap and needles. They are no longer sterile. Use a new needle and a new saucer of ink if you plan on doing any touch-ups in the future. Avoid cleaning a fresh tattoo with alcohol -- use soap and water, instead.

The best way to tell if your blue cheese has spoiled is to smell it. Fresh blue cheese has a strong scent, but it changes as it starts to go bad. Give the cheese a sniff, and if it has an ammonia-like smell, it is probably spoiled. It's a good idea to give blue cheese a smell when you've just brought it home. That way, you'll know what it smells like when it's fresh and be better able to detect when the scent begins to change. Fresh blue cheese already has mold in it, which is typically blue or green in color. However, you want to pay attention to the color of the creamy part of the cheese. It's normally a white, beige, or yellow shade. If you notice that it's started to turn pink, brown, or green, your blue cheese has likely spoiled.  Just as with the scent of the cheese, make sure to note the color of your blue cheese when it's fresh so it's easier to spot changes if it goes bad. In addition to color changes, study the cheese to see if its surface appears slimy or fuzzy, and discard if you notice changes in texture. If your blue cheese still smells the same and hasn't changed in color, you can usually tell if it's gone bad by giving it a taste. While fresh blue cheese has a strong, sharp taste, old cheese becomes especially biting when it starts to spoil. If you taste a bit of the blue cheese and it's too strong to enjoy, you should throw it away. In most cases, eating a small bit of spoiled blue cheese isn't going to make you sick, so tasting it isn't dangerous.

The better you look on the big night, the more confident you'll feel. This confidence will show through and put you in the mood to break it down on the dance floor. Ladies, wear shoes that you feel comfortable dancing in. It's perfectly fine to wear heels, but try to find a pair that you can move around in. The more comfortable you feel physically, the more natural it will feel to dance. Dancing alone can feel awkward and isn't as much fun. If possible, go to homecoming with a group of friends and their dates so that you can share in the festivities together. Before dashing onto the dance floor, take a moment to soak up your surroundings and familiarize yourself with the venue. Take a lap around the room, get something to drink, and head to the bathroom if you need to. Getting comfortable with your environment will make you feel less intimidated by the prospect of dancing in front of others.

The big four gluten culprits are wheat, rye, barley, and triticale. Avoid these in all cases, whether you are only gluten-intolerant or have celiac.  Wheat to avoid includes kamut and spelt. Because wheat often goes by another name, here are varieties of wheat to also definitely avoid:  Bulgur Durum flour Farina Graham flour Kamut Semolina   Rye contains a protein called secalin, which is a form of gluten.  Triticale, a cross between rye and wheat, is actually a hybrid designed in laboratories in the late 19th century.  Barley is the last big gluten cereal to avoid. It is commonly made into meals and used in alcohol production, among others. White oats themselves do not contain gluten, they are often cross-contaminated with wheat because both are commonly processed in the same facilities. Avoid eating oats and oatmeal unless the packaging specifically designates the product as gluten-free. In theory, the distillation process removes all gluten proteins if done properly, even if the alcohol was manufactured using a glutinous grain (such as wheat, barley, or rye).  You can safely drink alcohols such as vodka manufactured from wheat, but be wary of beer. Look for beer that is specifically designated gluten-free. In theory, the distillation process removes all glutinous proteins. But in reality, cross-contamination may occur. Not only this, but some distillers may add mash to alcohols after distillation as a filler. This may cast doubt on alcohol's ability to deliver truly safe results. If you really want to be careful, stick with potato-based vodkas, tequilas and mescals, or rums. These all contain non-gluten grain sources, so they should be fine to drink. Checking labels is important. While many of the following kinds of foods have been and are being made gluten-free, many of them aren't. It's better to be safe than sorry. Avoid:  Breads, croutons, cereals, and crackers Cookies, cakes, and candies Imitation meat, imitation seafood, processed lunch meats, and "self-basting" poultry Salad dressings, gravies,...

The biggest factor affecting concentration is rest and this has been approved by research. Concentration requires your mind to be calm. But your mind will be scattered if you are not well-rested. Make sure that you get the right amount of sleep at the right time. Also have regular sleep time, and this can be the key step for concentrating. Sleeping too much is also not ideal. Oversleeping disrupts your natural rhythm and can make you lazy. Avoid this by having an alarm clock to wake you up in time. Always have a plan for whatever you are up to. When you sit down to work without a plan, you may easily get caught in activities like checking emails, Instant messaging (chatting), and browsing the web. Without a purpose, you are wasting your time. You’ll find yourself distracted by a variety of nagging thoughts instead of devoting all your attention to one important task. To avoid this, make a clear plan that meets your needs beforehand. Take 5 or 10 minutes break in between, and use this time to check email, and then close your inbox and move on to your most important task. When making a plan be sure to allocate enough time for entertainment, studies, and sleep. . The practice of meditation will definitely improve our powers of concentration. Actually, when we try to meditate, it is concentration that is the first thing we need to master. A daily period of meditation gives us the chance to work specifically on concentration techniques. Obviously, some places are better than others. School libraries, study lounges, and private rooms are the best. Above all, the place that you choose should not be distracting. Try to stay away from other people if you want to concentrate on your work. Overeating creates a huge load of digestion and can make you feel uncomfortable and sleepy. Eating light and healthy meals can help you maximize your ability to concentrate. As Thomas Jefferson said, we rarely regret eating too little.

The biggest mistake you can make in selling a self-published book is putting it out on the market while it still has mistakes and needs editing. Make sure that your book has been well-edited, is formatted correctly, and has a matching cover and appearance with the story. A good-looking and clean book will sell many many more copies than a book that has numerous mistakes or an obviously hand-made cover design.  It is worth your money to hire a professional editor or cover designer to help get your book ready for selling. Don’t rely on friends and family only for opinions/editing help on your book. It will be clear if you were lazy and took the easiest way out for getting your book prepared for selling. You need to make as many people aware of your novel as possible, which means using multiple social media platforms to get the word out. You should be posting regularly about your book on various platforms to get people other than your close friends and family involved. Try using social media like:  Blogs/Tumblr Facebook Twitter Goodreads (like Facebook but for books/authors) Instagram If you make appearances in places where your book-buying audience is likely to be present, you’ll be sure to sell plenty of books. See if any local bookstores, radio stations, or libraries will host you for a public interview or book signing. If you make a public appearance and can use your charm and wit to lure people into reading your book, you’ll be able to get plenty more buyers than just sending your book off to be sold somewhere.  If you can get a book deal at a local store and a book signing event, you’ll be golden. Getting published in a blog or online magazine might be a great way to get word out about your book. Look into blogs/magazines that tend towards your reading audience, and ask if you can be hosted on their page. If you’re able to get a group of fans to sign up for a mailing list, you’ll be one step closer to getting your book into the hands of people who may not have heard of you before. Have people sign up for...

The biggest risk associated with any stomach virus is dehydration. As a result, the most important thing you can do to help your body get rid of the virus is to keep yourself hydrated as much as possible.  You should try to get 8 oz (250 ml) of fluid every hour as an adult. Children need 1 oz (30 ml) of fluid every 30 to 60 minutes.  Drink slowly, taking small sips instead of large gulps. Fluids will sit in your stomach more effectively if you introduce them to your system gradually instead of all at once.     Drinking too much plain water as you recover can dilute the few electrolytes still in your system, so try to include an oral electrolyte solution in your drinking routine as you fight the bug. In addition to a loss of water, you are also losing sodium, potassium, and other electrolytes. An electrolyte solution can help replace some of those lost minerals, as well. Other good drinks to consider include diluted juices, diluted sports drinks, clear broth, and decaffeinated tea.     Avoid sugary drinks. Adding sugar to your system without also adding salt can make diarrhea worse. Carbonated, caffeinated, and alcoholic drinks should all be avoided, too.     If drinks are hard to tolerate, suck on ice chips or a popsicle, instead. As soon as your stomach feels ready to take on solid foods again, you should begin eating to restore any lost nutrients. While there is little scientific evidence to show that bland foods are inherently easier to digest than less bland foods, most people do seem to take to them better when nausea is still moderately strong.  A traditionally bland diet would be the BRAT diet, which includes bananas, rice, applesauce, and toast. Other decent options include baked potatoes without butter, bagels, pretzels, and crackers. You should only do this for a day or so. Bland foods are certainly better than nothing, but relying on them completely during your recovery will deprive your body of the nutrients it needs to fight off the bug. After surviving on a bland diet for a day or so, you should...

The biggest risk of a Zika infection is not the infection, it is the potential complications that can develop as a result of the infection. Although complications only develop in a small minority of people, they can be severe. The two main complications that are suspected to be linked to the Zika virus are:  Guillain-Barre Syndrome (GBS), which is a neurological condition that can lead to potential paralysis. Microcephaly, which is a birth defect that develops when women who are pregnant become infected with Zika. Infants born with microcephaly have an abnormally small head and may have developmental delays as well. Some infants may even die as a result of this birth defect. GBS has been linked as a potential complication of the Zika virus, but there is not yet a proven link between the two. Still, it is important to know the signs and symptoms of GBS if you have Zika. GBS is an autoimmune disorder that may occur following a viral infection such as Zika. It affects your nervous system by damaging the nerve coverings. Symptoms include:  Numbness in the lower extremities such as the feet, lower legs, and hands Difficulty moving Numbness and/or paralysis that gradually moves upwards Difficult breathing if the paralysis moves to the chest area Microcephaly in newborns has also been linked to the Zika infection in pregnant women (who then pass it on to their fetus in the womb). Microcephaly refers to an abnormally small head. This condition can lead to developmental delays, intellectual disabilities, and, in severe cases, it may even lead to death.  When your baby is born, the doctors will take routine measurements of head circumference (both at birth, as well as at progressive intervals throughout your baby's growth). It is through abnormally small head circumference measurements that a doctor may diagnose your baby with microcephaly. Microcephaly is defined as a head circumference of less than 42cm at full growth. Doctors can use age-based growth charts to determine whether your baby's head circumference fits...

The biggest type of flattery people use on girls is complimenting their appearance. Remember though, some girls like to be appreciated for their intelligence, physical skills or abilities. There is a way to do this without being creepy or focusing too much on the physical side of a woman.  Use a specific compliment like "I really like the way your sweater brings out the colour in your eyes." A specific compliment is tailored to the girl and is more than just "you're cute," or "you're attractive." Another good way is to notice the way she puts together her outfits. If she's wearing a pair of awesome earrings say something like "Those earrings look really good on you. You have great taste." Do not, do not, do not, make a sexual comment ("nice rack," or "I'd hit that") unless you know the girl really well and she has accepted that sort of comment. Most girls find that sort of comment creepy. " These are boring compliments and way overused and inappropriate on girls under 16. Try for something a little more unusual and interesting. Even "beautiful" can be overused. A different way of saying that she's attractive will intrigue her, because she's unlikely to have heard it before.  A few good words to try: "radiant," "breathtaking," "elegant," "riveting," or "dazzling" to name a few. You could even use something like "incredibly" which could mean both her appearance and her personality and accomplishments. Too often people stick to only complimenting or flattering a woman's looks. You'll need to widen your flattery to include her personality as well. Make sure that you are being as specific and sincere as possible when talking about her personality, otherwise she won't take you seriously.  Tell her something like "I love the way you brighten up any party and manage to make everything more fun just by being there." Or note how kind and generous she is. If she helps out her friends and family all the time, you could say something like "It's amazing how much you do for other people. Just make sure to take some time to...

The bilirubin production system can run into trouble at one of three points: before, during, and after bilirubin production. Each of these problems can result from a set of related conditions:  Adults can develop what is called "unconjugated jaundice" when the problem occurs before bilirubin is produced. This is most often caused by reabsorption of a large blood clot or by hemolytic anemia.  During the production of bilirubin, adults can develop jaundice as a result of viruses such as hepatitis and Epstein-Barr, autoimmune disorders, and overconsumption of alcohol or certain medications including acetaminophen, oral contraceptives, and steroids.  If the adult develops jaundice because of problems after bilirubin production, the problem may lie in the gallbladder or pancreas. If you have jaundice, you will want to have your bilirubin levels checked. Jaundice can be an indication of a serious health issue. Usually, your doctor will work to find and treat the cause of your jaundice and treat any complications of the jaundice. The jaundice itself is not usually treated. Sometimes a medication may be given to help with itching, which is a common symptom of jaundice. Jaundice is often accompanied by other symptoms, which may help your doctor determine the cause:  Short term jaundice, which is caused by infection, may be accompanied by chills, fever, abdominal discomfort, or other flu-like symptoms. Jaundice caused by cholestasis -- the interruption of the flow of bile -- may be accompanied by itching, weight loss, darkened urine, or lightened stools. A number of uncommon medical disorders can lead to elevated bilirubin and jaundice.  Gilbert syndrome is a genetic liver disorder. Patients have a reduced amount of the liver enzyme needed to break down bilirubin. Although present from birth, symptoms, which include jaundice, fatigue, weakness, and gastrointestinal discomfort, may not appear until young adulthood.  Crigler-Najjar disease is an extremely rare condition that is also caused by an enzyme deficiency. There...

The body and mind are not separate entities. What one does directly impacts the other, and this is true for your diet as well.   Reduce caffeine. Caffeine is a stimulant.  Too much can make you feel jittery and anxious. Eat foods high in protein. Protein can help you feel fuller for longer, and can keep your blood sugar from plummeting or spiking throughout the day. Lean proteins such as poultry and fish are great choices.  Complex carbohydrates with a lot of fiber may cause your brain to release serotonin, a relaxing hormone. Good options include whole-grain breads and pastas, brown rice, beans and lentils, and fruits and vegetables.  Avoid high-sugar and high-fat foods. These can make you feel more stressed and upset.  Limit alcohol intake. Alcohol is a depressant, so it may initially make you feel calmer. However, it can also cause depressive symptoms, and it may make you feel on edge. It can interfere with your healthy sleep patterns, which will make you more irritable. Physical exercise releases endorphins, your body’s natural “feel-good” chemicals. You don’t have to be a bodybuilder to get this effect, either. Research has shown that even moderate exercise, such as walking and gardening, can help you feel calmer, happier, and more relaxed. Exercises that combine meditation with gentle movement, such as Tai Chi and Yoga, have been shown to have positive effects on anxiety and depression. They can reduce pain and increase feelings of well-being. . Meditation has a long and respected history in Eastern traditions. Scientific studies have also shown that meditation can promote relaxation and feelings of well-being. It can even rewire how your brain deals with outside stimuli. There are many types of meditation, although "mindfulness" meditation is one of the types with the most research support. You don't even have to leave your house to learn how to meditate. MIT has several downloadable meditation MP3 files. So does the UCLA Mindful Awareness Research Center. Stressors can build up so gradually that we...

The body naturally wakes up faster when it’s light outside. Keep your curtains open and use the sun to help you awake. If you need to wake up when it’s dark, or if you live in a dreary, cloudy place, consider using a timer on your bedroom lamp or getting a lightbox or a bedside dawn simulator. When you wake up, get out of bed immediately and get moving.  A few exercises will have a positive impact on your whole day. Do some calisthenics or quickly go about your morning routine. Stretching is really important in the morning. Your muscles will be oxygenated and warmed for the day. Alternate the temperatures between hot and cold to get your circulation going.  Use shower gels with ingredients such as lemon or peppermint essential oils to help make you more alert. Splash cold water on your face as soon as you wake up. Low temperatures should quickly wake you up. If a shower is not possible, try putting a couple of drops of essential oils onto a tissue and inhaling their fragrance.  Some alarm clocks now have aromatherapy components built-in, as well. Drinking some water as soon as you wake up stimulates the body and will help you stay awake.  If you need something stronger, try coffee or tea. If you have trouble making it out of your bedroom without coffee, consider putting your coffeemaker in your room and setting the timer so that a cup of Joe will be waiting for you when you wake up.

The body shape of male and female guppies is very different and distinctive. Male guppies usually have very slender, long bodies, while female guppies are usually a lot rounder and bigger than the males, sometimes twice as big as a male guppy.  If your female guppy is pregnant, her body may look boxy or stuffed and even lumpy. She may grow even rounder as she gets closer to birthing her young.  You may want to use a magnifying glass to get a better look at your guppy’s shape, size, and coloring as it swims around in its tank. You may want to try to do an approximate measurement of your guppies to help determine their sex. Female guppies can grow up to 2 ⅛ inches (6 cm) and are often a lot larger than male guppies. In contrast, male guppies can grow up to 1-⅛ inches (3 cm). Male guppies are often much more colorful than their female counterpart and their bodies may be covered in bright coloring and patterns. Males may have bodies and tails covered in orange, blue, violet, green, black, and white spots and stripes. They use this coloring to attract a female mate. Keep in mind that spotting a lot of bright colors and patterns on your guppy is not a sure fire way to identify it as male. Some types of guppies have females who are also quite colorful, so you may want to use other physical markers to determine the sex of your guppy in addition to coloring.  You can look at different breeds of guppies online to determine what breed your guppy is as well as the different coloring and patterns on your breed's tail. While you are examining your guppy’s body shape and coloring, you should go a bit closer to your fish and check for a gravid spot. The gravid spot is a dark spot located on the underside of your guppy’s body, near the tail, and is a clear marker of a female. Males do not have a gravid spot. A pregnant female guppy’s gravid spot will get darker and bigger as she gets closer to delivering her young. As her due date approaches, you may be able to actually see the babies inside her, close to her gravid spot....

The bowl of ice water should be at least the same size as the pot of boiling water. Add a minimum of one tray of ice, roughly 12 cubes, to the bowl and fill 2/3 of it with cold water.  It is important that you have the ice water ready before you begin the process of blanching your carrots. If working in batches, you may need to add more ice over time if you notice the first round of ice beginning to melt.

The bowl will not drain properly if you attempt to drain it before draining the tank. When draining a toilet, always start with the tank. No matter how careful you are, the process can be a little messy. It's a good idea to lay down a tarp or some old towels near the base of the toilet. This will soak up any water that spills out during the process. Take a bucket that holds around 5 gallons (19 L). Fill it with 2 gallons (7.6 L) to 3 gallons (11 L) of water from your tub or sink. It may seem counterproductive, but pouring the water into the bowl actually causes the toilet bowl to drain. Lift the lid of the toilet and slowly pour the water into the bowl, lifting the bucket as you pour. This will draw the water out of the bowl. If pouring slowly doesn’t do the trick, quickly dump the remaining water in the bucket into the bowl, as sudden action can help the water drain. While pouring water into the bowl should draw out most of the water, there will still be some water pooled at the bottom of the bowl. Grab a wad of paper towels or a sponge. Press this on the bottom of the bowl to soak up any remaining water.

The brain is very much so a muscle -- it can get used to the paces you put it through. Put it in front of the television day in and day out and it will atrophy. It'll become lazy. But keep it moving and it'll stay fresh and raring for the next great adventure. So turn off the tube and do something to challenge yourself. Chess anyone? The Internet makes this so easy. Pull up Lumosity, a sudoku or crossword puzzle, Memrise, Khan Academy, or Coursera (just to name a few possibilities). There is very little you can't do with the computer you have in front of you. So there are no excuses! We talked about having fun before, but we didn't touch very heavily on getting rid of stress, though the two definitely go hand in hand. But on top of having fun, it's important to manage your stress levels. High-stress individuals eat more, sleep less, and are generally less healthy on the whole. Those hormone levels in your head affect just about everything! The simplest thing you can do is to identify your triggers and not allow them in your life, at least as much as possible. Then add yoga or meditation on top of it and declutter your space. You're basically organizing your life, making sense of it, and then never relinquishing control. . When we don't get adequate sleep at night, our entire lives are affected. We can't focus, we can't pay attention, we eat more, our hormones get all over the place, et cetera ad infinitum. We all need around 8 hours, but whether you need closer to 7 or 9 is an individual thing. To make it easier, to get good quality sleep, start disconnecting sooner rather than later -- hopefully 2 or 3 hours before you go to bed. So get off the computer, stop staring at your cell phone, and hit "off" on that dang remote control. Read, take a bath, or just chill with your family or roommates. Live in the moment. Being social to humans is like breathing. If we don't get enough, our mental faculties suffer and we start losing our grip on how life should be. So make time for your friends!

The breast on male robins is a rusty red, deeper than that of their female counterparts.  The female breast will be lighter in color, trending towards reddish-orange.  Wing and tail feathers will also be different. Male robins tend to have darker black wings and tail feathers while females typically have a charcoal tone to their plumage. There is less contrast between the head and back feathers in females (where they are typically a blackish gray color) than among males. Nests are built primarily by females.  Male robins assist the building effort only occasionally.  If you can catch a robin in the act of building its nest, chances are you've identified a female. Male robins will care for the young at night during their first year.  Female robins use this time to incubate the second brood but return during the day to feed and care for the hatchlings. Males pursue females and may engage in fights with other males to ward them off their nesting grounds.  Males often sing to attract females, though both males and females are capable of vocalizing.

The breathing is the same as in the previous exercise but here it will be performed in four breaths.  Change your position to lie face down on your mat. Have your feet and legs together and the tip of your nose lightly resting on the mat. Place your hands either side of your shoulders, so that your elbows rest comfortably on the mat. If you feel a lot of pressure on your lower back in this position, place a small towel just under your hip bones for support. As you exhale, draw your shoulders down on your back, keeping the neck in line and extend up off the floor. Think of lengthening forwards from your head, then exhale, to gently return back to the mat. Do the same thing four times, concentrating on maintaining your abdominals firm throughout. You will feel your upper back and shoulders working.

The bride and groom or the groom's parents will have sent you an invitation noting the details of the rehearsal dinner. In addition to the time and date of the event, some invitations note the style of dress the hosts wish for guests to wear. Here are some of the different styles of dress you may see listed on a rehearsal dinner invitation:  Black tie. This style is more common for the actual wedding day, but you may see a request for black tie attire on a rehearsal dinner invitation. Men should wear a tuxedo to a black tie event, while women should wear a cocktail dress or long evening gown. Formal or black tie optional. A formal or black tie optional event indicates that the suggested attire is slightly less formal than a black tie event. Men may wear a tuxedo, but could also wear a dark suit and tie. Women may wear a cocktail dress, dressy suit or evening gown. Dress for a "beach formal" event. If the invitation states that the rehearsal dinner is beach formal, be prepared for an elegant event held outdoors. Guests should dress for the elements, including sun and sand. Men may wear a lightweight suit with a linen shirt, or khaki or linen pants with a cotton button-down shirt. Ties typically are not required at beach formal events. Women may wear a tea-length or knee-length sundress. Select appropriate attire for a "semi-formal" or "dressy casual" rehearsal dinner. For men, semi-formal attire indicates a suit and tie. A dark suit is recommended for evening events, while lighter colors may be appropriate for a daytime event. However, as most rehearsal dinners are held in the evening, darker colors are recommended. Women may wear a cocktail dress or a dressy skirt and top to a semi-formal dinner. Dress for a "casual" event. While casual dress to some people may mean jeans and shorts, in most cases that is not appropriate attire for a rehearsal dinner unless specifically noted on the invitation. Men should wear dress pants with a polo or button-down shirt to a casual rehearsal dinner. Women should wear a...

The brighter the flashlight, the better. Use a small device that you can easily store. This method only works well in the dark, so save it for stealthy excursions at night or in enclosed spaces. Figure out exactly where the camera is, and shine the light directly into the lens. When properly executed, this technique should create a lens flare that makes it nearly impossible to tell what you look like. Be warned that the flashlight method is not subtle. The sudden flash of will alert any vigilant guard to your presence. However, you should at least be able to use the bright light to obscure your face. Be careful not to drop the light beam from the camera lens, lest you reveal your face. Make sure not to shine the light onto your face. Remember: this method only works if you are quick and precise. For a quick fix, superglue a string of bright lights to a hat or headband. If you wish to get more involved, you can craft an LED "mask" that even more heavily obscures your face. Make sure that the lights are bright enough to blot out your face from the camera's view, but not so bright that they blind you!

The bull float is a flat, long-handled tool used to flatten minor ridges and holes, as well as embed aggregate particles further into the concrete, bringing the smoother "cream" consistency concrete to the surface for better finishing.  The bull float should have rounded ends, not flat or straight ends. Avoid using a square float, as it will make smoothing out the concrete more difficult. Move the bull float back and forth across the slab, perpendicular to the direction you moved the leveling board. (In other words, move the bull float between the two forms the 2x4 was resting on.) Slightly lift the leading edge to create a smaller cutting edge of contact, lifting the tool toward you when pushing and away from you while pulling. Some bull floats will have a handle that will lift the tool for you when you turn it. Don't overdo it; the edge of the tool should remain level with the concrete. Try to finish this process before any "bleed water" leaks out onto the concrete's surface. A magnesium float is a short-handled tool that serves the same purpose as a bull float for smaller projects. A "power float" or "helicopter" is a powered tool used on large projects.  Move the magnesium float back and forth in overlapping arcs until the whole surface has been covered twice. A power float requires two people to place it carefully onto the slab, but only one to operate it. It takes a little practice to work properly, so stay near the center of the slab while you're learning to avoid damaging the concrete's edge. An edging tool is designed to create level edges and corners next to the form, where your larger bull float or magnesium float is less accurate. This will create more durable edges as well as improve the concrete's appearance.  Use a back-and-forth motion in a 1- to 2-ft. (0.3–0.6m) area before moving on to the next. As with previous tools, lift the leading edge of the tool. Don't press too deeply into the concrete; this can create impressions that are difficult to remove. These are called control joints and...

The burn has damaged the skin, which is the body's first line of defense. Carpet burns and abrasions can become infected if bacteria gets inside them. If the wound does get infected, then Wash it gently with a clean washcloth using warm water and antibacterial soap. Be sure to remove any visible dirt or debris. This helps to prevent any infection. You need to disinfect the wound to guard against infection. Use iodine, hydrogen peroxide, or an antiseptic if there are signs of dirt in the abrasion, or if any bleeding areas are deep. Soak a cotton ball in iodine, peroxide, or antiseptic and carefully dab it on the burn. All of these products may cause some pain when you apply them. Alcohol can inflict pain and cause harm, so avoid using it. Smear some Neosporin or another ointment on the carpet burn. Check the burn for any deeper damage, like cuts or lacerations. These might need medical attention if they are serious. Cover the area loosely with a bandage. Remove the bandage and check the burn in 24 hours. If the surface of the skin has started to scab or form a crust, the burn will heal best if left uncovered and exposed to the air. Put a fresh bandage back on for another 24 hours if the skin is still red and raw and crusting has not started yet.
