Reading your toddler their favorite books can be a great way to entertain them. This may also help to distract your toddler if they are feeling uncomfortable or impatient with being on the plane. You may also want to pack a few new books so your toddler will have something new and exciting to look at. Nesting cups are compact, inexpensive, and they can provide lots of entertainment for a toddler. Your toddler will have fun stacking and nesting them and banging them together. Lower the tray table in front of your toddler so that they have a place to play with the cups. If you don’t have nesting cups, you could also give your toddler a few plastic cups to play with. Ask the flight attendant if they would mind giving you a few empty cups. You can provide your toddler with gel cling stickers and let them press them onto the window for a fun activity. These are available in craft supply stores and they come in all kinds of designs. They don’t permanently stick on the window and they are easy for little hands to stick them on and take them off. Make sure to remove the gel clings from the window before you leave the plane! There are lots of different travel games that you can purchase and play with your toddler. Look for games that are appropriate for your child’s age. Some toddlers may also be able to play basic card games.  Try getting a travel BINGO card that you can help your toddler fill out. Get a simple game, such as Connect 4, and show your toddler how to play. Puzzles and peg boards are also good options for playing with your toddler on the plane. Bring a standard deck of cards and play Go Fish, or get a special card game meant for young children, such as Old Maid. Play-dough is a great sensory play item for your toddler. Give them a ball of play-dough and place a plastic mat over the tray table. Then, let your toddler create with the play-dough! You can even join in with them and mold items that they ask you to. For example, if your toddler wants to make a play-dough snowman, you could make the buttons,...

Real gold is very heavy. If you have a piece of quartz with pieces of what you think is gold inside it, try weighing it and compare the weight with a similarly sized piece of quartz. If the quartz with gold pieces in it weighs several grams more than a similarly sized piece of quartz, it's possible that your quartz contains real gold.  Real gold weighs about 1.5 times more than fool's gold, or iron pyrite. Fool's gold and other minerals that look like gold will not produce a weight difference between the pieces of quartz. In fact, the piece with gold-colored particles inside may even be lighter than your other piece of quartz if the gold is not real. Iron pyrite, most commonly referred to as “fool's gold,” is magnetic, whereas real gold is not. Hold a strong magnet up to the gold-colored material in your piece of quartz. If your rock sticks to the magnet, it is iron pyrite and not real gold. Refrigerator magnets may not be strong enough for the gold test. Purchase a stronger magnet, or earth magnet, at a home improvement store. Real gold will not scratch a piece of glass, but other minerals that look like gold often do. If your piece of quartz has a corner or edge that looks like gold on it, try scratching this against a piece of glass. If it leaves a scratch, it is not real gold. You can use any piece of broken glass or mirror for this test. Just be sure to use something that you don't mind scratching. Real gold will leave a gold-colored streak when scratched against unglazed ceramic, such as the back of a bathroom tile. Iron pyrite leaves a greenish-black colored streak when scratched on ceramic. Try the back of a loose bathroom or kitchen tile for this test. Most ceramic dishes are glazed, so they won't work for testing the gold. If you don't mind destroying the quartz, you can find out if you have gold in your quartz by doing an acid test. Place your quartz in a glass jar and cover it completely with white vinegar. The acid in the vinegar will dissolve the quartz crystals in several hours, leaving only...

Real jade has a very high density, which means it will feel heavier than you might expect based on its size. Toss and catch the stone several times to get a feel for its weight. If you can, compare it to a different stone so you can get an idea of how heavy the jade feels. Although this test is imprecise, it’s a popular way to judge the authenticity of jade. Jade is naturally a very cool stone, so it will feel cold to the touch. Hold it against your face or neck to see if it feels cool against your skin. If it doesn’t, then it may be a fake. If you hold the stone against your face for a few minutes, it still shouldn’t heat up. It should feel cold even if you rub the stone up and down on your skin. Place the stone in your palm, then wrap your hand around it. Squeeze the stone tightly to try to heat it up. Wait 1-2 minutes, then feel the stone to see if it’s still cool. Real jade should still feel cool to the touch, while a fake will likely be warm. It’s possible that a fake stone will still feel cool, but this test may help you separate the real stones from the fakes. This can help you judge the density of the stone you think might be jade. Clap the stones together several times and listen to their sound. Since jade is hard, you should hear a deep, resonant sound when the stones strike each other. If the stones sound like plastic beads, then the suspected jade stone is likely a fake. If you don’t have any real jade, you can try doing this test with a different stone. However, keep in mind that it might not work as well as when you use real jade. For a simple scratch test, rub your fingernail along the side of the stone to see if you can scratch it. As another option, use a pair of scissors or a knife to scratch the surface of the stone in an inconspicuous place. If the stone scratches, it’s likely not real. Real jade is a hard stone, so it won’t scratch easily.

Realistic self pep-talks are great and affirming your self-worth openly to yourself can be a good way to start changing the negative self-talk that you might have developed over time. Make set times during the day to remind yourself that you're a great person. Tell yourself you're special, wonderful, lovable, and loved.  Affirmative talk is part of a range of methods for boosting yourself and for taking out time to acknowledge that you do matter -- just as much as every person around you. Try to be specific with your self-affirmations. For example, instead of saying "I love myself," you could say "I love myself because I'm a smart, compassionate person." . Improving your self-confidence is a great way to work on a more positive self-image. There are several strategies you can use to improve your self-confidence including:   Blocking negative thoughts. Every time you have a negative thought, turn it into something positive. For example, if you think to yourself, “I will never pass this test,” then change the thought to something like, “I will pass this test if I study hard for it.”  Removing negativity from your environment. Surround yourself with people who are uplifting and supportive. Steer clear of people who are negative and critical of themselves or other people.   Being assertive. Being assertive will help you to get your needs met and this will help you to feel happier.   Setting goals. Set realistic goals for yourself, and make sure to reward yourself when you accomplish them.  Seeking mental health support. Working with a mental health professional, such as a therapist, can help you to develop your self-confidence. Responsibility also requires that you relinquish the need to use blame as a source of coping; blame alleviates the need to look at yourself and to change your own behavior. Blame will leave you stuck in time and stuck with your negative feelings, and it perpetuates feelings of helplessness. Blame implies that someone or something else has the power that you lack. Don't blame your parents,...

Realize that merging two households means making compromises. Your lifestyles are about to change, but that doesn't have to be a negative thing. In fact, it's very exciting. Help each other make the transition easier by respecting each other's ideas and talking everything out if you have a conflict.   Don’t start things off on the wrong foot by being stubborn about little things that don’t matter. If you have three hand mixers, for example, have the mentality that you're willing to give yours up for the sake of the household. Don’t fight about whether to keep heirlooms. If your partner really wants to keep the table his grandfather made, don't fight about it, even if you think the thing is hideous. If it's a family heirloom, it should stay in the family. The new household isn't going to be like your old one, and you shouldn't expect it or want it to be. You're merging your tastes with your partner's to create something new and fresh. With careful planning you can create a new space that you both enjoy.  Strive for a new and improved merged household, rather than trying to replicate the old house. If the person is moving into your home, be willing to make big changes. Remember that you'll need to make mutual decisions about how to improve the space from now on. Merging two households can be hard on kids. If children are involved in your household merge, they should be involved in the decision making. Merging households might make them feel nervous, and it's really helpful if they feel they have a say in what their new space will be like. Get the kids involved in packing, decorating, and creating a new personal space for themselves.  Let kids decide which toys to keep, and which to give away. Get kids excited about the new and improved space. Tell them moving will be an adventure. Merging households means merging lifestyles. Think about all the factors in both of your lives that will be affected by the merge. Have a plan for accommodating each other's hobbies, pets, and so on.  If you have pets, where will...

Really repetitive motions do not work in intimate situations. Her genitals are not an elevator button that you can just push repeatedly and hope to get results. The same can be said of her nipples. Think circular movements and variations in pressure, direction, and motion, and you'll be fine. Men get stimulated with sensations on their penis, so you'd think that women would be stimulated by sensations in their vagina, right? Unfortunately, it's not that simple! Most women don't get a whole lot of pleasure from just vaginal stimulation alone. Wikipedia the clitoris. When you're dealing with sensitive parts, be gentle unless she specifically asks otherwise. Nibbles and pinches here and there can feel amazing for some women but not all, and you don't want to get smacked. Guys, you know you love it when she makes all of those little moaning sounds. It lets you know how much she's enjoying it, right? But did you know that she likes to hear you make sounds too (for the same reasons)? Maybe not so much with the grunting, cause it can get a little cave-manish, but say things like, "Oh, that feels so good..." No, really, turn up the heat. Women have a harder time feeling as much pleasure when they are cold, studies have shown. Get under a toasty warm blanket or crank up the thermostat if she really seems to be having trouble and you've tried everything else.

Really. Though sleeping on top of your textbook every night won't result in some type of mental osmosis, you'll be surprised how much you do gain from going even if you don't pay attention 100% of the time. Some teachers reward those who go by giving attendance points or even giving out extra-credit answers or "secret" info to those present. Score.  And while you're there, take good notes. But you knew that right? Going to class, while also helping with knowing the content and what will be on the tests, will alert you to deadlines and test dates. Sometimes professors switch things up on a whim. If you go, you'll know what to expect and when you have to show up. Turns out your teachers are just as bored with you as you are with them. If you can be one of the students that actually engages and that they like, it can work wonders for your grades, sure, but also your class experience. So participate! Ask questions, make comments, and just be attentive. Teachers are sick and tired of snoozers. You don't have to break new philosophical ground with every comment you make. Even answering questions your teacher poses can get you in good. Some teachers have participation points or will round up your grade if they know you do. So do it! If your teacher has office hours, go to them. If not, seek them out after class. Think about it this way: You have to give $50 to an acquaintance or to a friend. Who would you give it to? So when you get 95.5% on that test, it's that extra effort to get to know them that can bump you up to that A. You don't have to ask about their kids or invite them out to lunch. No, no, no. Simply go up to them after class, ask them about a point they covered and go from there. You could also ask them for scholarly advice (potential jobs or schools, maybe?) and talk about yourself, too. You both need to get to know each other! Teachers are people; they are not machines. If you need something, they may be able to accommodate you. Especially if you're a good student that they've gotten to know! If you...

Reassure him that people ingest small amounts of gasoline all the time, and are usually just fine.  Encourage the victim to take deep, calming breaths and relax. Small amounts of gasoline causes little harm once it reaches the stomach, but inhaling even a few drops of gasoline into the lungs can cause serious respiratory problems. Vomiting greatly increases the chances that a person will aspirate (inhale) gasoline into his lungs, and must be avoided. If the victim vomits spontaneously, help him to lean forward to prevent aspiration.  Have him rinse his mouth with water after vomiting and immediately contact Poison Control and Emergency Services. Encourage him to drink slowly to avoid coughing or choking.  If the victim is not conscious or able to drink on his own, do not try to administer fluids and call Emergency Services immediately.  Do not give the victim milk unless directed to do so by the Poison Control center, as milk can cause the body to absorb the gasoline more quickly.  Carbonated beverages should also be avoided, as they may make the burping worse. Avoid drinking alcohol for at least 24 hours. In the United States, the number is 1-800-222-1222.  If the victim is experiencing acute distress, including coughing, difficulty breathing, drowsiness, nausea, vomiting, or anything more severe, call Emergency Services right away. The victim should remove any clothing that came in contact with the gasoline. Set the clothing aside and rinse any affected skin with plain water for 2-3 minutes, then wash with mild soap.  Rinse the skin again thoroughly and dry. Gasoline and gasoline vapors are extremely flammable, and smoking could lead to a fire.  Cigarette smoke can also exacerbate any damage done to the victim's lungs by the gasoline. This could continue for as little as 24 hours to as long as several days.  Drinking extra fluids may help provide relief to the victim and help the gasoline pass through his system faster. If the victim starts to feel worse at any point, take him to the doctor for further...

Recall past interviews and questions you were asked during them. Expect similar if not the same exact questions to be put to you now. Consider the exact position you’re applying for now and how that may effect the line of questioning. Prepare answers and talking points to address the following topics:  How your previous experience (whether it be other jobs, education, or volunteer programs) may have prepared you for this specific job. What skills you have in general, but more specifically those that are strongest and those that are most relevant to the job at hand. Instances where you’ve solved problems in the past that demonstrate your ability to succeed under stress. Rehearse your talking points. Ask friend or family to role-play with you. Record yourself and play it back to identify any points that aren’t communicated clearly. If you find yourself forgetting key points, write a cheat sheet to study right up to the point you’re called in for your interview. Be careful not only of what you say, but how you say it and how you behave. Be mindful of your emotions and what impression you make on people. Once the interview begins, frame an introduction that instantly communicates exactly what you want your future employers to know about you right from the get-go. Set yourself apart from other candidates by painting a distinct picture of yourself in just a few words. When asked to “tell us about yourself,” reply with a brief description loaded with relevant, impressive facts. For example:  “I graduated fourth in my class, with honors, from Such-and-Such University.” “I was a manager at Such-and-Such Company for x-number of years, where I was responsible for a staff of x-amount of people.” “I’m a self-motivated freelance writer with credits in these publications . . .” “I’m the president of my student body, for which I’ve organized these events and fundraisers . . .” If possible, use examples of work-related feats you’ve pulled off that speak directly to the position you’re applying for. Otherwise, talk about...

Recent research suggests laughing and humor are both key components of health in general.  The easiest way to get over the anxiety produced from an embarrassing moment is thus to simply laugh at yourself and the situation that just occurred. This way, it's easier for others to laugh with you than at you.  The fact that you even get embarrassed is a great way to connect you to other people, as it’s something almost everyone has likely experienced at some point in their life. If you are willing to laugh at yourself, an embarrassing moment can serve as a great jumping off point to sparking interesting conversations or making new friends. You can also try making the situation funny. If you approach the situation with good humor, it will become less embarrassing and more like a light joke. For example, if you fall off your chair, say something like, "I do all my own stunts!" When an embarrassing moment happens, it's best to accept it. You can't go back in time, so what's the point of being in total denial? Admit to yourself – and others if appropriate – that you had an embarrassing moment. This can be a great way to start conversations with others, as they will likely have embarrassing moments to share with you as well. There may be circumstances that cause your embarrassing moment which are understandable and explainable. For example, you may have called someone by the wrong name all day. But when you reflect on the incident, you realize that you’ve been thinking about another person quite a bit.  For example, you could say, “I’m sorry I’ve been calling you Shawn. I have been thinking about a good friend of mine who is going through a rough time, and I’m a little distracted.” Perhaps you spilled coffee all over some important papers at a meeting, or you tripped and dropped a stack of books on your principal’s foot. Ask the other person to help you pick up your things. This will redirect the situation away from your embarrassment to the task at hand.

Recent studies have shown that both workers and athletes speed up their performance when around the scent of peppermint. So if you're feeling drained, pop a peppermint or some peppermint gum to help get you energized. Or you could assault your nose with some strong scents, peppermint included. If you have some essential oils handy, one big whiff could be all you need to set your senses on high alert. Caffeine, which is found in coffee, tea, sodas and energy drinks, are great for a short boost of energy. Doctors recommend that healthy adults limit their caffeine intake to 400 milligrams per day, which is about four cups of coffee, 10 cans of soda, or two "energy shot" drinks.  While 400 milligrams is safe for adults to consume on a daily basis, excessive caffeine intake can lead to high blood pressure, insomnia, irritability, upset stomach and muscle tremors. So try to limit the amount of caffeine you drink each day to an absolute minimum.  Caffeine will definitely give you a quick shot of energy in the short-term, but does little to help you ward off fatigue throughout the course of the day. Be sure to eat healthy and drink plenty of water to avoid an energy crash later in the day. Limiting your intake of caffeine to the morning hours can help you avoid insomnia in the evening or nighttime. Also, it is wise to hold-off on that first cup of coffee or soda until after nine a.m. Your body naturally produces cortisol at higher levels between eight and nine a.m. and caffeine can actually diminish that natural rush you would otherwise feel. Not only are chia seeds trendy, but they're rumored to have some serious energy-boosting benefits as well. Chia is full of B vitamins, fiber, and protein, so it can help give you an extra boost of energy. Chia seeds mix well with yogurt or can be mixed into your favorite flavor of smoothie. You can also put them in breads or muffins. So you want a brick of grain and protein to keep you going? Energy drinks and power bars are all well and good, but if you make them yourself...

Recent studies have shown that taking melatonin supplements, about 3 mg a day, can increase your REM sleep and help you stay in the REM stage of your sleep cycling for a longer period of time. Your doctor can recommend a melatonin supplement, usually in pill form, as well as the prescribed dosage for your body type. Melatonin is also recommended for the elderly and people who work late shifts at night, as it can help to normalize your sleep cycle and be beneficial for your health overall. Many of the side effects of these drugs can have adverse effects on your sleep patterns and daytime alertness. Common medications that can disturb your REM sleep include:  Nasal decongestants. Aspirin and other headache medications. Pain relievers that contain caffeine. Cold and allergy medications containing an antihistamine. Certain diet pills and antidepressants. If you are taking any of these medications, try to reduce your dosage. Or research alternative methods to treat these issues so you can stop taking these over-the-counter medications. Daily exercise is proven to help people sleep and can help you stay in the REM stage of sleep longer. But a workout too close to bedtime might interfere with your sleep schedule. Try to get daily exercise about five to six hours before bedtime.

Recent studies have suggested that using e-cigarettes while you quit smoking can help you reduce or quit smoking. Other studies recommend caution when using e-cigarettes since the amount of nicotine varies, the same chemicals as those in cigarettes are still being delivered, and they may re-activate the habit of smoking. Behavioral therapy combined with medication therapy can improve your chances of successfully quitting. If you've tried quitting on your own and are still struggling, think about getting professional help. Your doctor can talk to you about medication therapy. Therapists can also help you through the process of quitting. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy can help change your thoughts and attitudes about smoking. Therapists can also teach coping skills or new ways to think about quitting. This medication doesn't actually have nicotine, but it does help reduce the symptoms of nicotine withdrawal. Bupropion could increase your chances of cessation by 69 percent.Usually, you'll want to start taking bupropion 1 to 2 weeks before you stop smoking. It's normally prescribed in one or two 150mg tablets per day. Side effects include: dry mouth, difficulty sleeping, agitation, irritability, tiredness, indigestion and headaches as side effects. This medication curbs nicotine receptors in the brain, which makes smoking less pleasurable. It also reduces withdrawal symptoms. You should start taking Chantix one week before quitting. Be sure to take it with meals. Take Chantix for 12 weeks. Side effects include: headaches, nausea, vomiting, trouble sleeping, unusual dreams, gas, and changes in taste. But it could double your chances of quitting. Your doctor will have you increase your dose over time. For example, you'll take one 0.5mg pill for days 1-3. Then you'll take one 0.5mg pill twice a day for days 4-7. You'll take one 1 mg pill twice per day after that.

Recognize that different people react to life situations differently. Even if you have been through a similar situation as your friend, avoid saying something like “Oh, it won’t feel so bad after a while. When I went through this, I ___” Your friend wants her feelings acknowledged not minimized.  Show empathy instead. Empathy involves acknowledging the other person’s painful feelings by trying to put yourself in her shoes. Even if you think you know what it’s like, refrain from generalizing what the experience is like To your friend, this is new, raw, and painful. To offer support and empathy, say “I can see that you are hurting. I wish there was something I could do.” When we see people we love hurting, a common reaction is to rush to find a solution. However, in some cases, the only factors that can lessen the pain are time or hope. Yes, you may feel powerless about not being able to offer some practical help to your friend, but she will appreciate your presence much more than your advice. During hard times, people resort to unhelpful platitudes that offer no comfort, but only make the circumstances worst. Avoid these unsupportive, straight-from-greeting-cards comments:  Everything happens for a reason Time heals all wounds It was meant to be It could be worse What’s done is done The more things change, the more they stay the same Offering to pray for your friend or telling her to pray, may seem like a harmless gesture. However, if your friend is an atheist or agnostic, she may not be soothed by religious practices. Try to meet your friend where she is and offer your presence and comfort in a way that is comfortable to her.

Recognize that men are often more overt about expressing their interest in someone romantically. Women often hint.  What’s her mood like when she sees you? If she becomes giddy, extra happy to see you, and full of smiles, that’s a good sign.  Does she ever show jealousy? If she shows jealousy, such as when you spend time with another friend, that could be a sign she’s interested. Is she trying to get you alone or does she only hang out with you when other friends are along? If she’s always trying to get you alone, it might mean she wants to hook up with you. Does she have open body language (body facing toward the woman, palms up, feet pointing toward the woman) or closed (arms crossed over her chest, palms down, body facing away, etc.) If you catch her making eye contact with you (you’re a woman interested in her) or if you catch her making eye contact with another woman (if you’re a guy or a female friend of hers), she may be bisexual.  Persistent eye contact can be a way of creating intimate connection and to flirt. Also, you should pay attention to the amount of personal space she leaves between herself and other women. Is she trying to create a zone of intimacy?  Looking someone in the eyes and then glancing away is a sign of flirtation in many cases. People don’t usually lock eyes with people they only consider friends. Avoid stereotyping people. That being said, sometimes you can pick up clues from how she dresses her body.  If she goes for an androgynous look, or something like a suit-and-tie combo, she might have a bisexual vibe. Other clothing that might provide a clue would be low-slung pants, Calvin Klein briefs, and trendy fitted blazers. Keep an eye out for rainbow accessories or pins that show she’s out. Some hairstyles are more associated with being a lesbian than others, such as a barber’s cut or military cut. Short fingernails could also be a giveaway. However, absolutely none of these clues is surefire. There are many bisexual women who dress differently. It all differs on the individual.

Recognize that you will always have people around who will not support you or your goals. The key is to not let their words dominate you. Use them as motivation to prove your critics wrong, or tune them out if they feel too toxic.  For example, if a relative doesn’t support your professional ambitions, then you may need to stick to non-work topics when talking with them. This doesn’t hold totally true if someone is genuinely trying to offer you constructive advice or criticism. Other people sometimes see things you can't, and you can use their words for guidance. Use your best judgment to determine whether or not their words will be helpful or harmful to you. Locate a support group in your area that focuses on the type of hardship that you are experiencing. Talk with trusted family members or friends about what you are experiencing and seek out their advice. Meet with a counselor to have a sounding board or someone who will just listen. For example, you might join a social group for small business owners. You can feel comfortable discussing any hardships, such as rent raises, that you are coping with. The most successful people in life have all failed. The difference between them and people who live in fear of failure is that successful people face the failure, learn from it, and use it to spur their next attempt. They persist because they know that failure is simply part of achievement. If you are continually hitting roadblocks or problems when trying to reach a goal, take some time to think about why that might be. Weigh your actions and talents with a critical eye to see if they are truly good enough for what you are pursuing or if you might need to work a bit more or get some help.  For example, if you keep stalling out at the interview stage for jobs, then you might need to polish your interview techniques. Think about whether you're self-sabotaging. Underlying beliefs or negative feelings can keep you from reaching your full potential. If you find yourself getting stuck and can't seem to move past it,...

Recognize that your own life and death, as well as the lives of other creatures, are all parts of the same cycle or life-process. Life and death, rather than being two completely different events, are actually always occurring at the same time. The cells in our bodies, for example, are continuously dying and regenerating in different ways throughout an individual lifetime. This helps our bodies adapt and grow within the world around us. Our bodies serve as fertile ecosystems for countless different life forms, especially after our own lives come to an end.  While we are alive, our gastrointestinal system is home to millions of micro-organisms. These all help our bodies stay healthy enough to support proper immune functioning, and, in certain ways, even complex cognitive processing. On a much larger, macro level, our lives fit together in unique ways to form societies and local communities which depend upon our bodies' energy and actions in order to sustain some degree of organization. Your own life is composed of the same mechanisms and materials as other lives around you. Understanding this point can help you become more comfortable with the thought of a world without your particular self still being around. Go on meditative walks in nature. Or, you can simply spend more time outside around many different life forms. These activities can be great ways to become more comfortable with the realization that you're a part of a larger world. Try thinking that after you die you will go somewhere happy.  Many religions believe in this. If you ascribe to a particular religion, you may find comfort in considering what your religion believes about the afterlife.

Record yourself speaking or ask a friend to listen and evaluate your speaking voice.  Assess your volume, pitch, articulation, vocal quality and rate to determine the main areas where you need improvement.  Is your volume too high or too low? Is your pitch more shrill or full, monotonous or varied? Is your vocal quality more nasal or full, breathy or clear, lifeless or enthusiastic? Is your articulation hard to understand or crisp and articulated? Do you speak too slow or too quickly? Do you sound hesitant or deliberate? You should always speak loudly enough so that everyone in the room can hear you. However, adjusting the volume of your voice up or down can add emphasis or intimacy to different parts of your speech.  Get louder as you are about to make an important point. Lower your voice when you are making an aside. People might tune out your voice if it sounds monotonous.  Varying your pitch will eliminate a monotonous sound and make it more likely that they will keep listening to you.  Continue to vary your pitch throughout your speech. Some common ways to use pitch include:  Ending questions on a higher pitch. Affirming a statement by ending on a lower pitch. The tempo is the pace of your speech.  Slowing the tempo of your speech will help you to place more emphasis on certain words and phrases. It may also make it easier for people to understand you if you are prone to speaking rapidly. Try pausing after making an important point to give the listener a chance to absorb it. Have you ever heard someone’s voice quiver when they are experiencing strong emotions during a speech?  This can be an effective technique in some situations, such as when you are giving a speech or acting in a play.  Allow the timber, or emotional quality of your voice, to show when you are expressing strong feelings. For example, if you are saying something that makes you feel sad, then you might allow your voice to tremble if it comes naturally. However, do not try to force it. Before you get in front of an audience to present...

Recording them and paying attention to them will help you let go of them. Getting them out in the open can help to take away some of their hold on your mind and self. Don't limit yourself in negative ways. Definition of the self determines the action. So, for instance, if you're defining yourself as someone who has bad romantic relationships, you've already lost the potential for a good romantic relationship. It is a story that you tell yourself, and then because you believe the story, you will already be behaving in ways that make the story true. You don't want to define yourself based on outside forces, because outside forces are volatile and subject to constant change. By basing your self-definition on core values, you will have a better chance of having a stable self-definition.  You won't lose your self identity if you base it on values you hold at your core, like compassion, courage, integrity. Write down a list of these values and consciously and mindfully act them out in your daily life. Therefore, if courage is one of your core values, stand up for someone being harassed at the bus stop, or if honesty is a core value, fess up to having lost your father's favorite watch. If compassion is on that list, spend time volunteering at a homeless shelter. This doesn't mean that you don't acknowledge the negative events and actions that have happened in your life. They are as much a part of you as the positive, but they do not define you.  This means don't let outside circumstances rule your identity. That comes from within in, from the core values that you have already identified as being important to your identity. Understand that the negative experiences in your life have offered knowledge. For example, if you have had negative experiences with romance, learn from those experiences. What have they taught you about the kind of person you want to be?

Red and green, orange and blue, or yellow and purple can all be combined to make brown. You can use liquid or gel food dye. Gel food dye is usually preferred because you don't need very much to get vivid colors. You may think you have the perfect shade of espresso brown and then find the next day that is has deepened to almost black. Mix your dye lighter than you think you want so it has room to develop.  If you are dying frosting, consider making it 1-2 days ahead of time so you know the true shade you are working with.  If your frosting still isn't dark enough, add a drop of black dye or more of your brown. If your frosting is too dark, add a little of the white frosting to dilute the color.

Red flushing on the skin is one of the most common signs of alcohol intolerance. It is also very common for those of Asian descent, and is often referred to ‘Asian flush.’ Sufferers will initially feel a hot or tingling sensation prior to the red flushing. In some cases, your eyes might become red as well. These symptoms may result from drinking just one beer or glass of wine, and you’ll quickly notice your face and neck getting red.  This reaction is caused by a mutation in the enzyme called acetaldehyde dehydrogenase, which is supposed to help metabolize alcohol.  Those who experience Asian flush are at greater risk for cancer. There are numerous advertised products that claim to get rid of Asian flush, such as Pepcid, but they do not protect you from long-term effects of drinking alcohol. So it’s best to stick to less than 5 alcoholic drinks per week if you experience these symptoms. Flushing may also be due to combining alcohol with a medication you are taking. Something that may accompany facial flushing is swelling around the red areas. The skin around the eyes, cheeks, and mouth may become visibly swollen after drinking alcohol. This is another sign of alcohol intolerance. Red, itchy bumps, called hives, are a common symptom of an allergic reaction. These bumps appear pale red, and may also burn or sting. They can appear anywhere on the body, but you’ll typically see them on the face, neck, or ears. Hives usually fade on their own but can last up to an hour or even days on your skin.  The appearance of hives typically means you are allergic to ingredients found in the alcohol. Stop drinking immediately and pick up a bottle of water instead. If you experience hives, apply cool compresses or wet cloths to the affected areas to reduce any itchiness or burning.

Red hair color tends to fade fast because the molecules that make up the dye are large. To slow down the fading process, resist the urge to wash your hair often.  Do not wash your hair more than once every other day.  If your hair gets oily fast, try using dry shampoo to keep it looking fresh in between washes. Don't take hot showers. Hot water will make your color fade faster. Red hair dye is prone to fading. Apply a semi-permanent or demi-permanent dye to your hair from time to time to gently touch it up and keep it looking rich. If you need to touch up the roots, use a permanent dye. Remember that dying your hair is damaging. Because of this, you'll want to make sure you do deep conditioning treatments on your hair from time to time, especially just after you've dyed it. Also be sure to condition your hair every time you wash it.

Red is a primary color, so you cannot create it by mixing any other colors.  Primary colors are colors that exist on their own and do not contain traces of any other color. Aside from red, the other primary colors are blue and yellow. Even though you cannot make pure red, you can still make other hues of red by mixing pure red with other colors. You can change the value of any red hue in a similar manner.

Red stretch marks are fresh, and they can be minimized or reduced with certain products. White stretch marks are older and most creams will not change their appearance. However, good moisturizing routines will help your skin heal over time, and even white stretch marks should look less obvious. Work your inner and outer thighs using walking, pilates, yoga, barre, running, lunges and squats. Seek the help of a personal trainer to develop a leg routine that will firm the muscles underneath your stretch marks. If you have gained weight, aerobic exercise may help you shed a few pounds and take the pressure off your skin.  Although firm muscles will not get rid of stretch marks, they can reduce the appearance of cellulite, which often appears in the same areas that stretch marks appear. Minimal weight loss may cause some fresh stretch marks to heal and nearly disappear. Significant weight loss may lead to excess skin on some areas of the legs. Visit your dermatologist and ask about Retin-A cream. This is used to treat red stretch marks. The active ingredient is vitamin A, which has been proven effective in reducing scarring. Your dermatologist may also prescribe topical steroids to be used with Retin-A. Healthy, moisturized skin shows blemishes less obviously than dry, irritated skin. This will also make other creams and makeups less harsh on your legs. Apply a moisturizer, such as cocoa butter, daily. If you have faint stretch marks, this might even make them virtually invisible by itself.

Reducing the size of your Adam’s Apple is a simple, outpatient surgery. This procedure, commonly called “Trach Shave” lessens the appearance of the masculine feature through the removal of cartilage. HRT will naturally increase the size of your breasts. Most trans women end up with around a cup smaller than female relatives. If you wish to increase the size of your busts, consider breast implants. Implants will improve the size, shape, and look of your bust.  Know that breast implants are a risky procedure, and they may leak toxins. Once you have them, it's unwise to have them permanently removed: your chest probably won't look good. Make sure that you are certain that you want them before you get them. This surgery combines several procedures to alter your masculine features into fine feminine features. You may choose to alter your strong chin or your broad nose. You can change your hairline or the lines of your lips. Altering your masculine features will make it easier for you to pass as a female. Your plastic surgeon will work with you to achieve the perfect, dainty, feminine look. During this surgery, it is common to also reduce the size of your Adam’s Apple. During this surgical procedure, surgeons work to convert your penile and scrotal tissue into a vagina, clitoris, and labia. After this procedure, your genitals will appear feminine. You will be able to have sexual intercourse and reach orgasm. This surgery is irreversible.

Refer to the list above to learn the days of the week in French, along with how they are pronounced. Note that the days of the week are not capitalized in French.  Monday: lundi (luh(n)-dee)  Tuesday: mardi (mahr-dee)  Wednesday: mercredi (mehr-kruh-dee)  Thursday: jeudi (zhuh-dee)  Friday: vendredi (vah(n)-druh-dee)  Saturday: samedi (sahm-dee)  Sunday: dimanche (dee-mah(n)sh) This is identical to writing the date, with the day of the week added to the front of the phrase. Here's an example:   English: Wednesday, the 5th of June French (written): mercredi, le 5 juin 2001 (formal) French (written): mercredi 5 juin 2001 (normal) French (spoken): mercredi cinq juin deux mille un  French (spoken): le mercredi cinq juin deux mille un (eventually if you want to describe a precise day) Every day of the week is a masculine noun, so the article le is used. For example, "Le samedi est le sixième jour." means "Saturday is the sixth day." However, when you are talking about an event that occurred on a specific day, know the difference between le samedi and samedi:   Samedi, je dîne au restaurant. = On Saturday, I dine at a restaurant. (A single event.)  Le samedi, je dîne au restaurant.  = Every Saturday, I dine at a restaurant. (A repeated event.)

Refined carbs, also known as processed carbs, are found in many foods like cookies, pastas, white bread, and cereals. These types of foods have very little nutritional value and can lead to the body storing extra fats, including in the face. Instead of processed carbs and refined sugars, make sure to eat lots of fiber-rich whole grains. Eating a healthy diet will enhance any results you get from exercise.In addition to cutting out refined carbs, fill up on fruits, vegetables, and proteins. These foods are essential for a healthy diet and can lead to weight loss. Salt is one of the most overabundant ingredients in a modern diet, and it does terrible things to the skin. Finding ways of limiting salt in your diet (including focusing on a whole-foods diet and cutting out junk food) will have many positive benefits for your skin. Your skin will carry less water, making it less bloated and consequently more difficult for your jawline to appear.

Reflecting on your jealousy and working to make yourself a better person can go a long way in addressing your problem. Still, you have to understand that no matter what you do, you will never be perfect, and that there will always be things you want.  Realize that life isn't fair. You won't be able to have everything you want, no matter how hard you try, and there may be people who are truly more fortunate than you are. But once you accept this fact, you can let go and stop trying to have it all. Enjoy being yourself. You may be a flawed individual like everyone else, but make time to enjoy your quirks and really learn to love being you. Make time for alone time, and really appreciate your own company. Focus on your positive qualities. Though there still may be a few things you lack, focus on the parts of your life that you love, such as your relationships, or your amazing job. Emphasize the things you have and love instead of thinking about the things you want. Once you've worked as hard as you can to beat the jealousy that was taking over your life, you still need to make sure that it doesn't real its ugly head in the future. There are a few things you can do to make sure you don't see green in the future:  Never take anything for granted. Every morning, remind yourself of at least ten things you are grateful for. Making a routine of this will reinforce that you are a person who should not be jealous. Avoid situations that may lead to jealousy. If you can't help being a little jealous as a girlfriend, don't date a guy who tends to hang out with a lot of females. If you have a friend who seems to have everything and who you can't stop being jealous of her, try to spend less time with her if it's making you feel bad about yourself. Recognize your jealousy. As soon as you realize that you're getting jealous of someone again, go home and reflect in a notebook. Why are you jealous of this person? How can you work to stop the jealousy before it gets out of control?  Remember that it's healthy to be jealous once...

Regardless of the cause, itchy and irritated skin is never helped by scratching it — it may feel good initially, but it almost always makes the condition worse. As such, refrain from scratching your itchy skin and try some of the remedies mentioned below, which can help relieve the urge to scratch. If the urge is too irresistible, cover the itchy area of your skin with breathable clothes or light bandages.  Keep your nails cut short, even, and smooth to avoid causing more damage to your skin when you do scratch it. Scratching can draw blood, break blisters and lead to infections. Consider wearing thin cotton gloves, latex gloves or socks over your hands to prevent from scratching irritated skin. Try patting or tapping the itchy area of your skin, rather than scratching it. In addition to covering your irritated skin from the sun and making it more difficult to scratch, loose cotton (or silk) clothing is more comfortable, softer on the skin and more breathable than artificial fibers. So stick with cotton and silk clothing and avoid wearing itchy wool and man-made fabrics such as polyester that don't breath and lead to perspiration and more irritation.  Consider wearing loose cotton or silk robes with roomy sleeves while in your house. Then switch to light and loose bedclothes at night — flannel works well in winter months. During warmer months, stick with your thin cotton or silk pajamas, and just use a sheet for covering so you don't over-heat. Avoid tight fitting or clingy clothes if you have itchy and irritated skin. The more room for your skin to breathe and evaporate sweat, the better. A variety of additives in soap, shampoo and laundry detergents can further irritate itchy and irritated skin, and in some cases, be the direct cause of your condition. As such, avoid using perfumed soap, shower gel, shampoos or deodorants — look for natural alternatives with minimal ingredients (the fewer chemicals listed in the ingredients the better) or ones that claim they are hypoallergenic.  Rinse all the soap...

Regardless of the device, it's possible to turn off Wi-Fi. Some devices have a physical switch that turns on or turns off the Wi-Fi, while others just have the ability to toggle Wi-Fi on the software settings. Make sure that the computer does not have the Wi-Fi capability turned off before proceeding. Navigate to your device's settings and open them, and then navigate to the network settings. You can also click on the Wi-Fi icon on a computer's toolbar to open up a dropdown menu, which will list the names of the connections in the area. Your broadband network's router should have the default name written on it. The name of a hotspot network will usually show up by default as the name of your cellular device (e.g. "[Your name]'s iPhone"). Find this name and select it. Wi-Fi or hotspot names can be changed, but if you've changed the name of your network or hotspot, you probably know what it is. If you weren't the one to change it, or you don't know what the name is, ask the person in charge of the network. Some networks are public, but most aren't. If the network you're trying to connect to has a password, you'll be prompted for that password before you can connect to the network. The default password will usually be listed on the router, but if you don't know the password, ask the person in charge of the network. Some protected public networks may have varying passwords per person. For example, a school may allow students to log on to the network with their student ID number, rather than a single set password. It often takes a few seconds for a computer to connect to a wireless source, but if the computer can't establish the connection to the router, it will time out the Wi-Fi connection. In this case, move closer to the source, or disconnect and then reconnect your computer to the Wi-Fi. Once you've connected to the internet, open up a page in your web browser and wait for it to load. Since some pages can crash, you may want to load up a reputable website, such as google.com or isup.me to ensure that the...

Regardless of the remedy you are using, always wash and dry your hands before and after touching a wart. You should limit the area of normal skin treated by any of the over-the-counter methods. These methods generally work within a few days.  If your wart is not smaller or has not changed in appearance after 6-7 days, check with your healthcare professional. You may need another, stronger approach. Salicylic acid acts by breaking up and killing the cells infected by HPV. Instead of attacking normal cells as well, the acid leaves the normal cells alone. Buy Salicylic acid, such as Compound W or Dr. Scholl's Clear Away, at your local drugstore as a patch or a liquid. Wash the area well and dry it. Apply the patch or liquid as directed. Repeat daily until the wart is gone. This can take 2-3 months.  Avoid getting the medicine on any other portion of your skin. To help the acid work better, soak and file down your wart so the medicine can soak deeper into your skin. You can get a stronger concentration of Salicylic acid by prescription. Over-the-counter freezing medicines use dimethyl ether and propane to freeze the skin of the wart. The medicine essentially freezes the wart and kills the skin, causing it to fall off. Freezing medicines, such as Compound W's Freeze Off or Dr. Scholl's Freeze Away, can be purchased at your local drugstore. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions. They can take up to 2 months to work. Keep the medicine away from any open flame. The FDA warns that these medicines may be flammable. A recent study has suggested that the freezing method may be more effective in getting rid of warts within 2 months. The duct tape method, also known as tape occlusion, is a tried and true home remedy that many people swear by. It is not known how the duct tape works. Some say that the adhesive has a substance that breaks down the skin cells and are then pulled off by the physical action of tape removal. For this method, buy silver duct tape and apply a small piece of the duct tape to the wart. Leave the...

Regardless of the seasonings (or lack thereof) you choose to use for your flank steak, you will probably want to begin by scoring it, especially if you have a thick piece of meat. Scoring is a process in which shallow cuts are made into the surface of the steak to allow both heat and seasonings to penetrate deeper into the meat. To score your flank steak, place the flank steak on a cutting board, then use the tip of a sharp knife to make several shallow cuts into the surface of both sides of the steak in a diamond pattern. Try to make each cut about 1⁄4 inch (0.6 cm) deep. If you can, cut against the grain of the meat. As we'll eventually learn, the general rule with flank steak is to always cut against the grain to reduce the meat's toughness. If cooked correctly, flank steak can taste great without any seasoning at all. However, proper seasonings give this dish a burst of zesty flavor that can make it absolutely irresistible. When it comes to seasoning your flank steak, generally, your two options will be to use a marinade or a dry rub. Marinading your steak means letting soak in a mix of flavorful liquid ingredients so that it absorbs its flavor, while a dry rub is exactly what it sounds like — a mix of dry ingredients that you rub onto the outside of the steak. Both options can result in great flank steak. However, these seasoning methods aren't usually used together, so it's a wise idea to decide which method you're using before you start to cook.  Note that sample marinade and dry rub recipes are listed above in the "Ingredients" section. If you're using a marinade, you will want to begin early so that your flank steak has enough time to soak before cooking. Generally, you'll want to let your meat marinate for at least 2-3 hours, though marinating for as long as overnight can give stronger flavors. Whether you're using a marinade or a dry rub, the basic process for preparing each is the same. Simply combine the ingredients in a single vessel and mix thoroughly until the ingredients are combined. When...

Regardless of the specific variety, fresh cabbage has crisp leaves without any marks or signs of browning. There should not be many loose outer leaves, and the stem should not look dry or cracked.  Green cabbage should have dark green outer leaves and pale green inner leaves. The head of cabbage should be round.  White cabbage has very light outer leaves with patches of white around the veined areas. It has firm leaves packed tightly around the head. Red cabbage should have tough outer leaves and a reddish purple color. The head of cabbage should be round. Savoy cabbage has crinkled leaves and consists of fairly loose leaves that range in color from dark to light green. The head of cabbage should be round. Napa cabbage is tall, rather than round, and generally has pale green leaves. Bok choy has tall white stalks with dark green leaves. These leaves should be loose enough to peel away with your hands. Damaged leaves include any that are discolored or wilted. For round heads of cabbage, like green cabbage, red cabbage, and savoy cabbage, you should also remove the thickest outer leaves. Hold the cabbage still with one hand. Pick up a large, sharp knife in your other hand and cut the cabbage in half through the stem end. If desired, cut the cabbage further into quarters by cutting each half in half again lengthwise.  Cabbage will take longer to cook if left in halves, but otherwise, it is just as easy to prepare as quartered cabbage.     If you see any signs of insects or worms inside the cabbage, you do not need to toss the whole thing out. Instead, soak the head of cabbage in heavily salted water for 20 minutes. Cut away the damaged portions and prepare as normal.    Cut wedge-shaped sections from the bottom of each half or quarter to remove the rough stem pieces.  The stems will need to be cut out at an angle.     Note that for cabbage with long, loose leaves, such as napa cabbage and bok choy, the leaves should be left intact and on the stem.    If you want to shred the cabbage before steaming it, slice...

Regardless of the type of event you’re inviting your guests to, you should use a formal writing style on a formal invitation. This means spelling out dates and other words that are usually abbreviated.  For example, you should write “Saturday, the nineteenth of November” instead of “Saturday, November 19th.” You should also write “253212 Boston Street” instead of “253212 Boston St.” Don’t use the shortened versions of guests’ names. Write “Stephanie Smith” instead of “Steph Smith" and always use last names. One of the most important parts of the formal invitation is the inclusion of the event's host(s). Listing the hosts tells your guests who is inviting them to the event. How you write the hosts' names and the order in which you should list them varies depending on who is hosting. These rules are particularly important if you are writing a formal wedding invitation. For example, you should start a dinner invitation by saying "Sam and Ellen Smith invite you to a dinner celebrating the graduation of their daughter Leslie from graduate school."

Regardless of where you’re hanging the flag vertically, the union (the stars of the flag) should always be at the top. Flying an American flag with the union at the bottom is actually a sign of distress. According to the flag code, the union should always be at the top of the flag and to the observer’s left when it’s being displayed on a wall. If you’re hanging the flag parallel to a street, have the union point north if the street runs north to south, or east if the street runs east to west. If you’re hanging the flag over the street so the flag and street are perpendicular to each other, have the union point east if the street runs north to south, or north if it runs east to west. If you’re hanging the flag vertically from a flagpole coming off a building, the union should be in the top corner that’s furthest from the building.

Regardless of your financial goal, saving will be a central component. Whether your objective is to purchase a house, retire early, or pay for a child's education, saving will be the key means by which you accomplish the goal.  Refer to your budget for this. Look at your monthly expenses, and find areas of non-essential spending that can be cut. For example, if you eat out three times a month, or buy lunch at work everyday, focus on eating out once a month, or bringing a lunch to work. Look at your budget and decide what is a "want" and what is a "need". Look to the "wants" area for savings. Similarly, look at what you consider "needs", and ask yourself if they are truly needs. For example, your cell-phone may be a need, but you may not need a 3GB data plan, and instead can get by on 1GB. Begin by opening insured account at a reputable bank. Experts recommend the method of “paying yourself first,” which means that each pay period, you commit to setting a certain amount aside for savings as part of your budget.You can make an arrangement with many banks to automatically withdraw a set amount of money from your paycheck for this purpose.  Save an amount that you are comfortable with, given your needs and expenses. The amount you save can increase (or decrease) as time goes on. The important thing is to save something, even if it is just a small amount. Saving ten percent of your income is a good place to begin, but saving anything is better than nothing.  Saving even a small amount in an interest-earning account (checking, savings, CD, etc.) will be beneficial because of the power of compounding. This means that the interest your money (principle) earns becomes added to the principle in time, which then earns more interest, and so on—causing the overall value of the account to grow.  Practice makes perfect. By saving a set amount each month, or "paying yourself first", it will become automatic and you will learn to live without the saved money as if it wasn't there to begin with. View the saved money as an...

Regret is a critical way of thinking or feeling in which you blame yourself for things that happened. Productive regret can help you learn to change your behavior for the future. Unproductive regret, where you completely blame yourself, can create chronic stress which leads to health problems. Regret can be over things you have done or not done. For example, you could regret acting a certain way during an argument, or you may regret not taking a job offer. These may be different from person to person, but feelings of regret include: sadness, loss, remorse, anger, shame, and anxiety. Identify these feelings related to regret. For example, you may have the thought of a past deed and then you think about this event for the majority of the day. This can leave you feeling defeated and hopeless. You may think about what you did or said, or you may think about what you wished you had done differently to change your current situation. Constant rethinking and regretting can cause anxiety. This may lead to worrying about future decisions that you might regret later. Think about what's causing your regret. People can feel regretful for a number of reasons. Typical regretful experiences include:  Lifestyle: Many people regret moving to a different country or may wish they hadn't turned off a house offer. For example, you moved from Canada to Australia because you wanted a warmer life. But just months later, you have found it impossible to find work, have experienced life on the streets and feel homesick every single day. You wish you hadn't made the move down under. Work: People may regret not following a different career path and pursuing their dream jobs. Or they may regret turning down job offers or promotions. For example, you dread going into your office job everyday and frequently wish you had not turned down the opportunity to be a co-owner in your own business. Family: People may regret not settling disputes with a family member or friend, especially if the other person passed. Or they may regret not spending...

Regular cleaning can remove existing algae from your birdbath and prevent the build up of new algae. To clean your bird bath, start by removing all the water and discarding it. You will need to replace it with new water when you're done. You will need a small scrub brush to clean out your bird bath. In most cases, it is unnecessary to use cleaner. However, if your birdbath is very soiled or dirty, use a mild detergent. Clean the bottom of the bird bath and the sides, scrubbing off any dirt, debris, or visible algae. It's best to use a hose to rinse off your birdbath, especially if you used detergent. Hose down the inside of your bird bath until all soap residue is gone. It is very important to be thorough about rinsing a bird bath. Birds are very vulnerable to detergents and it can be harmful for birds if there's detergent left in the bird bath. Once you're done, you can refill your birdbath.  Use fresh, clean water to refill the bath.

Regular daily use of your feet will produce calluses and blisters, which are mainly made up of dead skin.  To keep your feet baby soft, remove this dead skin everyday after you’ve had a shower or a bath.  Use a pumice stone or foot file to remove the dead skin from your feet.  Concentrate on the edges of your heels, the balls of your feet, and the outside edges of your large toes.  This areas are more likely than others to build up with dead skin. Pumice stones and foot files work like sandpaper.  The coarse or rough surface of the stone or file slow (and gently) removes any dead skin cells from the outside layers of your skin. It’s usually easier to remove dead skin after your feet have had a chance to soak in warm water, which is why it’s best to perform this step after a shower or a bath. Use a circular motion when rubbing either a pumice stone or foot file on your skin.  You’ll only need to perform this step for a few minutes on each foot. If you’ve never exfoliated your feet before, it may take several days of performing this step before your feet feel baby soft. Unlike other parts of your body, your feet don’t have sufficient means to keep themselves properly hydrated.  Plus, as we age, skin cell regeneration slows down and can increase skin dryness.  To help keep your feet hydrated and feeling baby soft, apply a moisturizing lotion or cream to your feet every day.  Ideally you can perform this step after you’ve had a shower or bath and exfoliated your feet.  But you can also get into the habit of applying moisturizer to your feet every night before bed. Remember that lotion and cream can make your feet slippery, so be careful if you step onto a tiled or hardwood floor with your bare feet after applying moisturizer. An important part of your feet are your toenails.  So getting baby soft feet should also include getting soft, non-brittle nails.  You can do this by applying petroleum jelly to your toenails each night before you go to bed. While not required, you may wish to put socks on over your feet...

Regular exercise is important for overall joint health and can improve joint fluid’s lubricating and cushioning properties. If you have a history of medical issues or aren’t already active, ask your doctor for advice about safely starting a new exercise routine. Start with small periods of activity, such as 5 minutes a few times per day. If you have joint issues, you’ll likely experience discomfort or stiffness for the first few weeks. Try to stay active on good days, or when you feel less pain, and take it easy on bad days. Stop exercising and talk to your doctor if you experience sharp, progressively worsening pain during or after exercise. Walking, low-speed cycling, dancing, and other forms of light aerobic exercise are your best options if you have joint issues. Increase your physical activity gradually, and try to work your way up to 2 hours and 30 minutes of light aerobic exercise per week. If you can do so without risking injury, you could also try jogging, running, and cycling at higher speeds. and stretching routines. Regular flexibility exercises are especially important if you have arthritis or other joint issues. Look for a local yoga class for beginners or for your age group. Do light stretches every day to improve your joints’ overall health and ranges of motion.  When you stretch, don’t force yourself to push past your natural range of motion. Try to hold a stretch for 10 to 30 seconds, but don’t overdo it. Stop stretching if you experience sharp pain or feel strained. If you have an injury, don’t stretch without consulting a physical therapist or another medical professional. Leg strengthening workouts, such as squats and lunges, are good for your knees, hips, and lower back. If you have elbow or shoulder joint issues, try weightlifting exercises, such as biceps curls and shoulder presses. Be sure to discuss strengthening exercises with your doctor first. If you’re just starting out, it’s best to take an exercise class or join a gym. Having an instructor or trainer present can help reduce the...

Regular treatments (perhaps monthly) from a chiropractor or osteopath is not only effective for spinal pain, but it may also keep you better aligned. Chiropractors use a type of physical manipulation called spinal adjustments, which attempts to realign or unjam the small facet joints of the spine. Spinal adjusting can't reverse a scoliosis, but it can be important for maintaining normal spinal curvatures — especially following significant spinal trauma such as whiplash from a car accident.  Adjustment of a spinal joint may result in a popping sound — the same as when you “crack” your knuckles. The noise is caused by the change of pressure within the joint, which results in gas bubbles being released. There is usually minimal, if any, discomfort involved with spinal adjustments. Get a back, shoulder, and/or neck massage from someone qualified to do so. Massage reduces muscle tension, which may be helpful for spinal alignment if you have tight muscles surrounding or attached to your spinal column and pulling on it. Massage is also effective for reducing stress, which is often a factor in developing poor posture, especially of the upper body.  Massage can squeeze lactic acid, toxins and compounds that cause inflammation out of muscles and other soft tissues and into your bloodstream, so always drinks lots of water in order to flush them out of your body. Some massage therapists practice reflexology, which is the stimulation of parts of the foot to improve health. Ask your therapist to stimulate the points that are related to spinal health. A physical therapist can show you specific and tailored stretches and strengthening exercises for your spine designed to keep your spine from deviating from being straight, and if need be, treat your spinal muscles with therapeutic treatments such as therapeutic ultrasound or electronic muscle stimulation. Exercises targeting the back extensors, neck flexors and pelvic muscles are crucial for good posture.  Progressive resistance training with weights can halt or reverse bone...

Regularly check the mechanical features of your car, making sure to include the headlights and taillights, the brakes and the suspension.  If you don't feel comfortable doing these things yourself, send your car to a mechanic. The failure of any of these components can create a dangerous situation while driving. For example, if your wheel falls off and you have an accident, your insurance company will find that you are at fault.  Minor things count, too. Change windscreen wiper blades when they begin to streak the windshield during use. Also keep your windscreen washer reservoir filled regularly to clear mud or debris from your windshield. This will give the best traction, mileage, and performance. In the UK, it's a legal requirement to have properly inflated tyres at the correct tread depth.  Make sure the tyre pressure is even -- uneven pressure can lead to poor performance or even a blowout. Replace worn tyres. Remember that wet traction deteriorates before tread wears to its legal limit because the water has only smaller places to be squeezed out to; replacing at 4/32 can be wise. Check your spare when you check your four tyres. Did the previous owner forget to tell you about that time he used the spare? If the answer to that question is yes, then get a new one.

Regularly inspect the gas lines connecting your grill to the gas tank by applying a small amount of soapy water to the surface of the line and connectors. This should be done each season you are using the grill and monthly during periods of high usage.  Use a rag or brush to apply soapy water along the length of the gas line. Make sure to apply soapy water liberally around the connections and valves. Look for any bubbles that indicate gas is leaking causing a potentially dangerous situation. In between every 3-4 times you grill, heat up the grill without any food present.  Turn the burners on high. Close the lid to burn up any drippings that have fallen on the burner protectors. Allow the heat to build up inside the grill for 10-15 minutes. Invest in a cover for your grill to protect it from the elements when it is not in being used. Keeping rain and debris from piling up on your grill will help keep it from rusting and extend the life of your grill.

Regularly wash the nail and surrounding with warm water and mild soap, particularly if the nail is cracked on the body of the nail or nail bed. Use a slow flow of water of the injured nail to prevent discomfort. Take care not to use hot water, excessive force, or a towel on the nail—you don't want the towel to catch the cracked or split nail and pull it. You could also soak the nail in water daily for 15 minutes at a time to hydrate the nail. If the split extends down into the nail bed, or if it causes any bleeding, inflammation, or severe pain, apply first aid. Wrap the toe up in a layer of gauze and apply pressure to until all bleeding stops. Once the bleeding subsides, apply an antibiotic ointment like Neosporin to the affected area and cover it with a bandage. Severe splits should not be treated with the same tricks as minor cracks. Since these splits are more than cosmetic, you need to care for the damaged tissue as well as the split nail. If bleeding does not stop or worsens after several minutes of continued pressure, or if the area around your nail hurts enough that you cannot walk, seek medical attention immediately. There may be damage to the skin, bones, and/or nerves under the nail. Seek medical attention for a nail that is split into the bed of the nail if you are a diabetic or have neuropathy. It will be tempting to cut and prod your nail, or even pull it off. It’s best to leave the split alone, though, until it grows out past your nail bed. Keep a bandage on the area while the skin is still raw, and use an antibiotic cream every day. If it is catching on your socks, carpet, or other objects, have your doctor clip your nail to a comfortable length. If your toe continues to hurt, use an over-the-counter painkiller like aspirin or ibuprofen to help manage any pain and inflammation. Follow the dosage recommendations provided on the package, and make sure to consult your doctor before starting a new pain management routine.  Don’t give aspirin to children or teens. Use acetaminophen or ibuprofen...

Rehearse difficult conversations prior to having them, as this will help your auto-pilot to kick in if your emotions get the better of you. Look back over your list of reasons, think through the ways in which you could have done things differently, and find solutions for your future way forward. Then prepare some notes in your head, or on paper even, as to what you'll say when you talk to the other person again. Keep the following things in mind:  Be prepared to take responsibility for what you did. It's a good idea to elaborate on what you did wrong at the outset and to accept that you did the wrong thing. This sets the tone of remorse for the rest of the conversation. You can start simply with "I an sorry I hurt you. I was wrong to... think/say/do, etc.". Acknowledging their hurt will go a long way to easing tensions. Realize that if this is not the first time you've hurt someone else, and the other person has heard your apologies before, that a mere "sorry" won't cut it. Sorry can be too easy a word to utter when it's not backed up by real change. Think about how you will make it clear that you really do express sincere and genuine regret when you promise never to act this way again or to repeat your mistake. While it might be possible to make amends by email or telephone, it is far better to meet in person to make amends. This displays a willingness on your behalf to be near the person again and to make direct, meaningful contact with them.  If you are seeking to make amends with family members whom you have not seen for a long time, consider meeting them on neutral territory rather than in one another's homes. This will remove any usual tensions that being on one's own territory can raise. If you can't meet in person, consider writing a letter rather than typing one or emailing. It's far more personal to put your pen to paper and to express your feelings in your own handwriting. Tell the other person that you wish to make amends for your mistake and start your discussion with them, drawing on what you're...

Reintroducing nutrients like calcium into your teeth may help strengthen them.  One way to get rid of white spots and other signs of damage on your teeth is to make a remineralizing toothpaste that is rich in calcium and other basic elements.  Ingredients like baking soda will also act as abrasive elements to scuff off the white spots and normalize the pH balance in your mouth.  To make remineralizing toothpaste:  Combine 5 tablespoons (74 mL) of calcium powder, 2 tablespoons (30 mL) of baking soda, and 1 tablespoon (15 mL) of food-grade diatomaceous earth in a small bowl.  You can also add 3 tablespoons (44 mL) of xylitol powder to help keep the paste from tasting too bitter. Add enough coconut oil to the powdered ingredients to form a paste-like consistency.  This is typically about 3 – 5 tablespoons (44 – 74 mL) of coconut oil. If desired, you can also add one or two drops of food-safe essential oil for taste. Popular options include mint, lemon, and cinnamon. Store the paste in a sealed jar, and brush your teeth with it two to three times daily. If you prefer to use tooth powders to brush your teeth instead of toothpaste, you can create a homemade remineralizing powder using bentonite clay, which has the ability to draw out heavy metals and toxins from your teeth and mouth and restore the pH balance of your mouth.  The clay is rich in minerals like calcium, magnesium, and silica, which help get rid of white spots on your teeth.  To make remineralizing tooth powder at home:  Combine 4 tablespoons (60 mL) of bentonite clay, 3 tablespoons (44 mL) of calcium powder, 1 tablespoon (15 mL) of cinnamon powder, 1 teaspoon (5 mL) of clove powder, 1 tablespoon (15 mL) of xylitol powder, and 1 tablespoon (15 mL) of baking soda in a small bowl. If desired, you can also add 2 teaspoons (10 mL) of mint leaf powder or a few drops of peppermint or cinnamon food-safe essential oil to improve the flavor of the tooth powder. Store the powder in a sealed jar, and apply to the teeth with your finger or a toothbrush two to...

Rejecting someone is usually extremely awkward for both parties involved and it can be tempting to ignore the situation entirely. If you pretend it’s not happening it will magically go away, right? Unfortunately, allowing silence to be your answer and hoping the other person will eventually “get the hint” is both cruel and a poor strategy that often backfires. Avoid waiting for “the right time” because there usually is no “right time." The longer you wait, the harder and more awkward the rejection will be for both of you. It can make it difficult for the other person to move on if they don’t receive a firm and clear “no” from you, so the kindest thing you can do is provide that to them. It may sting a little at first, but in the long run you’ll both be happier for it. " Ghosting is a relatively new term to describe an age-old way of rejecting someone – by disappearing completely after an initial encounter, whether that’s one date or several. Rather than confronting the issue, the initiator permanently withdraws completely with no explanation – ever. Vanishing completely without ever addressing the issue is doing exactly what you are trying to avoid – hurting that person’s feelings. In a 2012 study, researchers identified seven breakup strategies and then asked people to rate them from most to least ideal. “Ghosting” was overwhelmingly identified as the least ideal way to break it off with someone. Unless you’ve known this person for a long time or have already been dating them for several months, letting them down gently via text is not only acceptable but also preferable.   The blow of rejection is softened by the neutrality of a text and allows the person to nurse their momentarily bruised ego in private. There is no reason to make physical contact with someone you don’t know well just to turn them down.  In some cases, such as when it comes to being approached online or by someone you work with that you rarely see and hardly know, even an email will suffice as a rejection. Anyone that you know personally...

Rekindling the spark in your sex life involves adding a bit of excitement back into your relationship. With the stress, responsibilities, and comfort in your relationship, maybe you and your partner don't touch as much throughout the day. Don't wait until you are behind closed doors or until you have the desire to have sex to touch one another. Touching more often can increase intimacy and shows your partner that you desire them.   Hug each other for longer than usual. Hold hands. Give your partner a neck massage. Playfully brush against them or whisper in their ear. Being spontaneous will often involve adding new things suddenly to add excitement. Try sexting, which involves sending a sexy picture of yourself or a suggestive comment to your partner via cell phone. Keep your partner excited about what is to come and discover new sides of each other. Sexting can be new, exciting, and can open sexual communication between you and your partner. It is common to wait for special occasions or for family vacations to take trips with your partner. That's not a bad thing, but it also does not give you and your partner the feeling of excitement or of running away together. Plan a small trip for a few days for the two of you, just because. This will allow both of you to relax, unwind, and get more time to be with each other.  Go to a nearby romantic cabin for a weekend. Take a short road trip without hotel reservations. Plan a quick getaway to the closest beach or island. To add a little fire to your sex life, try stealing your partner away from what they are doing for spontaneous sex where ever you can. Depending on where you are this might include having sex in the kitchen, in the car, or if you get a chance to in an elevator. You can also try having sex at a time that you normally would not, such as the afternoon. The spontaneity will help spice things up and the risk of being “caught” will add to the excitement. This can also increase the urge to have sex in both you and your partner.

Relationships are an important part of the human experience, even if you classify yourself as an “introvert,” or someone who recharges by being alone and doesn’t feel the need for a large number of friends. Friendships and relationships are a source of support, validation and strength for all genders and personalities. Maintain the healthy relationships in your life with family members and friends. Research demonstrates that your mood can immediately improve after having a conversation with someone you care about and you receive a supportive response from them. As you meet new people, identify the ones who make you feel good to be around. Cultivate relationships with them. These people will add to your support network and help you continue building a positive attitude. If you find yourself having difficulty creating positive emotional experiences on your own, turn to a friend for support. You shouldn’t feel like you have to bury your negative emotions. Instead, talking them through with a friend helps you resolve them and make room for happier emotions.

Relationships are important and allow us to experience emotional highs and the lows, learn about ourselves, and learn how to love and be loved. These are crucial elements for living a fulfilling life. Whether you initiated the break-up or not, there is a grieving process that occurs.  Tell the person, “I just want to acknowledge that ending this relationship didn't feel good. I know it's going to be hard and awkward to see each other for a while. I will do my best to respect your boundaries and I would appreciate you doing the same.” This may lead to further discussion at which time you can reinforce your expectations. It is important to acknowledge the relationship was important to your personal development, regardless of how short or involved it was. If you deny the feelings associated with the break-up and pretend that it wasn't important, you won't learn from the experience. Most people are taught how to acquire things, but very few people are taught how to lose something. Whether the loss is a relationship, a loved one, a job, a physical ability, or trust in someone, the damage created must be understood and managed. Grief is a complex emotion that manifests in different ways.  There are stages to the grieving process that can be used as a guide to understanding your own unique experience with grief: denial, numbness and shock; bargaining; depression; anger; acceptance.  Start a grief journal and write about the feelings you are having in each stage. Grief is an individual journey. Everyone experiences it differently.  You may spend more time in one stage versus another. Don't rush yourself and don't allow others to rush you through your grief. There is a time to grieve and it is essential to the healing process. Breaking up feels like an emotional setback. It's going to take your full attention and effort to carry you through the journey. Find a way to give yourself a running start at the challenges ahead. It is a normal response to fall apart to a certain degree, and each time you pull yourself...

Relax and refresh the eyes by making a conscious effort to blink every 3 to 4 seconds, over a 2 minute period. Use a watch to time yourself, if necessary. This will relieve some of the pressure on your eyes, leaving them ready to process new information. People have a tendency to avoid blinking when working on a computer, watching television or playing video games. This puts a lot of strain on the eyes. Place your right hand over your right eye, resting your fingers against your forehead and the heel of your hand against your cheekbone. Don't apply any pressure. Keep the hand in place for 30 seconds to a minute, blinking freely throughout. Uncover your right eye, then use your left hand to cover your left eye and repeat. Covering your eye with the palm of your hand helps to relax both the eye and the mind, relieving stress and allowing you to blink freely. Imagine a big number 8 on the wall in front of you, turned onto its side. Use your eyes to trace this number 8, without moving your head. Keep doing this for 1-2 minutes. If you're having difficulty imagining a sideways 8, draw one on a large piece of paper and stick it on the wall. You can trace this with your eyes instead. This exercise helps to strengthen your eye muscles and increase their flexibility, making them less prone to injury and high pressure. Find a relaxing place to sit, without any distractions. Hold your thumb approximately 10 inches (25.4 cm) in front of your face and focus your eyes on it. Focus on your thumb for five to 10 seconds, then switch your focus to another object, between 10 to 20 feet (3.0 to 6.1 m) away from you. Alternate between focusing on your thumb and focusing on the far away object for 1-2 minutes. This exercise helps to strengthen the eye muscles and improve your overall vision. Stretch one hand directly out in front of you, then stick up your thumb. Focus both eyes on the thumb, then slowly move your thumb towards you until it is about 3 in (7.6 cm) away from your face.

Releasing emotions is a great way to help yourself feel calm during tough times.  Many times you can feel angry, helpless, afraid, sad, grief, or ashamed when life has thrown you an overwhelming challenge.  When emotions are bottled up, they add to feelings of panic and feeling out of control. Learning to honor your emotions will also help prepare you for understanding more coping strategies.  Use a journal to write down things that help you release emotions and always remember, as painful as an emotion may seem, it is just an emotion and it will pass.  You are an individual and the best way for you to release your emotions is to find and write in your journal what works best for you. Using your emotions journal, make a list of all the people, things, circumstances, societal pressures, financial problems, loss, et cetera, of all the things you are angry at. Write them down on slips of paper, and then tear those slips up. Try to stay focused on your anger, notice where you feel it in your body, and notice if other things you are angry about come up. Consciously imagine yourself releasing the anger as you tear up the paper.  Experts actually don't recommend that you express your anger by smashing or hitting things, or doing anything violent to release your anger. These actions may actually increase your feelings of anger, not lessen them.  On the other hand, getting some exercise can be a great way to release pent-up anger. Several studies suggest that taking a good run or getting other forms of aerobic exercise help you feel calmer after an upsetting experience. This is because exercise releases endorphins, which are natural mood-elevating chemicals.  See the wikiHow article Release Anger for more ways to safely express your anger in healthy ways. Using your emotions journal, write about what is making you sad in your current situation.  Are you hurt by someone’s actions or something that has transpired?  Are you sad about a missed opportunity?  Are you sad because the tough times you are going through are...

Remember that by keeping the bird, you are performing an illegal act. Also, you likely do not have the expertise to feed the bird properly, so it very well may die under your care. Also, caring for a baby bird is not easy, as it needs to be fed every 20 minutes or so. Finally, you are not equipped to teach the bird what its parents do, such as how to hunt for food or how to be on the lookout for predators. The bird also may become so accustomed to humans that it may come to harm because it doesn't know to fly from humans and may come to expect its food from humans at all times. You may be able to match the species by looking at an online field guide such as The Cornell Lab of Ornithology  or the Audubon Society's Guide to North American Birds. Positive identification will be easier if you catch a glimpse of the parents. However, if the parents are still around, you should let them take care of the baby. They have strong instincts to care for their young and are well equipped to do so. What your baby bird will eat depends on what its parents eat. For instance, cardinals eat seeds, while crows eat everything from nuts and berries to insects and small rodents. If your bird is an omnivore, you can try dog or cat food. Many wild birds are omnivores, and when they are babies, they are primarily feed insects by their parents. That means that a diet rich in animal protein, such as dog or cat food, is appropriate for these birds.  If you use dry food, soak it in water first. Leave it for an hour to soak. However, when you go to feed the baby, make sure it isn't dripping, as water can get in the bird's lungs, leading to death. The food should be spongy, not dripping. Make a small ball. Create a small ball of food, about the size of a pea. Drop the food in the baby's mouth. A Popsicle stick or a chopstick is handy for this process. You can also cut the end of a straw into a small scoop. The baby should readily accept and eat the food. For dry cat or dog food, if the kibbles are too big, make sure to break them up....
