Many smokers feel overconfident after refraining from smoking for a few weeks or months. You might think it's safe to go back to smoking socially once in awhile, but this is not the case.  Quitting smoking means totally severing your relationship with an addictive substance. One cigarette can quickly draw you back into the trap. Never think of one cigarette as one cigarette. Think of it as part of a lifelong deadly habit.  Nicotine is one of the most addictive narcotics in existence. This is why social smokers or casual smokers tend to eventually become chain smokers. Nicotine affects the brain in many ways - the most serious being that it convinces the addict that cigarettes provide pleasure or support - when in fact - the opposite is true. There are all sorts of studies that look at how the brain does this - but the truth is - it doesn't really matter - as long as you follow Allen Carr's method - you'll find it easy to escape. Carr advises against nicotine substitutes, such as nicotine gum or the nicotine patch.  Substitutes encourage you to think in terms of sacrifice. You are not making a sacrifice by getting rid of nicotine but rather respecting yourself and your body enough to quit.  Also, substitutes keep the nicotine addiction alive. The sooner you can break the feeling of dependency, the easier it is to stop smoking. Many people attempting to quit smoking keep emergency cigarettes in the house in case of a powerful craving. You should not keep any cigarettes in your home after you've had your final cigarettes. You won't need them and keeping them to hand creates and stimulates doubt about your decision.  Keeping cigarettes on hand implies doubt. In order to successfully quit, you need to proceed with the knowledge this is the best choice for you and your loved ones.  Remember, you are a non-smoker the moment you finish your last cigarette. You have no need for tobacco anymore. Don't worry if you live with a smoker - as long as you don't retain your own cigarettes - they won't bother you.

Many smokers find that they experience cravings whenever they are in situations or places where they smoke most often. If you tend to smoke at parties, bars, or around a particular group of friends, and you want to temper your smoking habits, it may be best to avoid those triggers until a day when you're ready to smoke.  The first step in avoiding triggers is to identify what your triggers are. Think about when you most often smoke, and compare that place/scenario with your frequency of cravings between cigarettes. If you absolutely cannot avoid your biggest triggers, have a plan in place to avoid smoking on "off" days. Give yourself permission to leave early if necessary, and arm yourself with distractions to keep you from smoking. One of the best ways to avoid giving in to your cravings, especially if you find yourself in places or situations that trigger the urge to smoke, is to give yourself adequate distractions. For some, that may mean something to satisfy an oral fixation. For others, it may require something to keep the hands busy.  Identify what activities suppress your cravings most effectively. Do you feel the need to put something in your mouth, hold something in your hand, or some combination of the two?  If you crave the oral fixation that comes with smoking, try chewing gum or sucking on a hard candy or lozenge. Some smokers also find it very satisfying to chew on something crunchy, like sunflower seeds, to help stave off a nicotine craving.  If you find yourself craving something to do with your hands, try carrying a pen and paper around. You can twirl the pen between your fingers, or doodle/draw to help distract you from the cravings.  If you feel you need both the hand occupation and oral fixation, try carrying around a bundle of toothpicks/tea tree sticks, straws, or lollipops. Many former smokers (and current smokers who cannot smoke, for example while at work) turn to toothpicks, straws, and lollipops as a means of satisfying both the behavioral and oral components of cigarette cravings....

Many times the paint color is not quite what the customer wanted, and they return it to the store. Rather than dispose of it, the store offers it to customers for free. They often give away small sections of carpeting that may be stained or too small to sell, odd lots of tiles or pieces of vinyl flooring. While they may be too small by themselves to cover a floor, you could mix and match remnants to cover a room. Even if what you find is not useful as construction material, you may be able to trade it for something useful to you, such as nails, screws or other odds and ends.

Many times your phone, like a computer, can overheat or simply be running for too long of a period. Sometimes we don't think of our phones as a computer, but phones can benefit from a simply reboot.  After turning off your device, wait one minute before restarting it.  Sometimes your phone only needs a soft reset and can be fixed by turning on and off "airplane mode".  You could also try to reset your settings.  This will not erase your data and applications on an iPhone. When resetting your settings on a Windows or Android phone, you will lose your data and contacts. If you're one of the latter users, then back up your device to a computer before resetting your settings. Do you ignore your phone's alerts about an update?  Well many of us do, and usually they send updates in order to fix certain glitches, like not being able to turn on Bluetooth. You'll often need to either be connected to a computer or WIFI to preform an update.  This process takes some time, so be ready with you're charger nearby. If you are having trouble with a device you've already paired your phone with, try starting from scratch.  An issue might appear to be a matter of whether your phone's Bluetooth is on or not, but really you need to re-connect your phone to the device.  For Apple phones, tap the device and click "Forget this Device".  For Android phones, tap the device name and click "Unpair".  For Windows phones, tap and hold the name of the device, and then press "delete".

Many torrent downloads come in RAR (.rar) format. These are archive files that need special software in order to unpack. The most popular free option for opening these files is 7-Zip. There are two main formats that your downloaded game will be in: EXE or ISO. The EXE format means that you can run the setup file and everything will be installed from the installer. An ISO file is an image of a physical disc, and needs to be either burned or mounted on your computer in a virtual drive.   Click here for detailed instructions on burning an ISO file to DVD.  Click here for detailed instructions on mounting an ISO file in a virtual drive. Most torrent games come with a text file with specific installation instructions. This is very important to read, as many games have certain tasks that need to be accomplished in the right order for the installation to work correctly. Always defer to the README file instructions over this guide. This will vary significantly depending on the game, but generally you'll need to either run the EXE file or mount/burn the ISO file and run the installer from the disc. You can usually run the installer like you would if you had purchased the game, but make sure you're following the instructions in the README file. Most games that you download have some form of copy-protection. In order to bypass this, you will need to enter a CD-key or run a crack program. Most torrents should include these with your install files, but the process will vary from game to game. Again, refer to the README file.  Some games require you to replace the main EXE file in the installed game's folder with a cracked version. You'll then run this replacement EXE file every time you want to play the game. Some games require you to run a key generator program that will provide you with a working CD-key. Some games have a simple EXE file that you will need to run once in order to unlock the game. Rarely you may be asked to edit configuration files in order to play the game. You'll find the instructions in the README...

Many travelers use prescription or over-the-counter sleeping aids to help them get to sleep.  However, prescription medications should only be taken if prescribed by a physician.  Risks associated with sleeping pills include DVT (deep vein thrombosis) and feelings of drowsiness and disorientation upon awakening. Over-the-counter sleep aids have a more moderate effect but it is still recommended that you only take them if you can ensure that you have four uninterrupted hours to sleep. Melatonin is a naturally occurring hormone produced by the body, it is also available as an over-the-counter supplement.  Sleep researchers have found that melatonin levels are elevated after dark and remain elevated throughout the night, suggesting that it can promote sleep. Some studies also suggest that if you continue to take it when you arrive at your destination, it can ease the symptoms of jet lag as well. Essential oils such as lavender, chamomile and valerian have a relaxing effect and may help you drift off to sleep.   When traveling, pack a small spray bottle with your desired essential oil mix and spray on your pillow or clothing. There are various apps and gadgets that you can use to help you settle down and get some rest.  Noise-cancelling headsets can reduce the noise of the plane engine quite effectively.  This can help you to feel relaxed enough to sleep, especially if you are a nervous flyer. Play white noise sounds. Research suggests that white noise, which you can download on your phone or music player, can also help promote sleep.  Bring a music player with a relaxing playlist that will soothe you to sleep. Get comfortable, shut your eyes and then try to stay awake.  Research suggests that this method, known as paradoxical intention, works and helps people fall asleep quicker. Above all, don't worry if you find you really can't sleep.  Traveling can be a stressful process, it may simply be difficult to relax and to drift off.  Accept this for what it is and remember that it's only a short-term problem.  You...

Many types of ants, including common house ants, prefer different types of foods at different times. To determine the preference of the colony that’s invading your house, add a squeeze of honey, a dollop of peanut butter, and 1-2 potato chips to a piece of cardboard. Place the cardboard in an area where you’ve noticed ant traffic, and wait 1-2 days to see which food the ants are eating. If the ants prefer the honey, for example, then you know they are currently interested in sweet foods. Use this knowledge when you shop for ant bait stations. Some ant bait stations use a generic bait that will probably work for you, but others list specific baits, such as “for sweet-eating ants” or “for grease-eating ants.” If you can find these specific baits at your local hardware store, buy the type that corresponds to the results of your “ant buffet” test.  Designs vary by brand, but each individual bait station often looks like a tiny plastic igloo with 4 openings, stuck on top of a roughly 2 in (5.1 cm) square of plastic or cardboard. Alternatively, you can make your own bait stations by mixing up a paste from 12  fl oz (350 ml) of water, 0.5 c (120 g) of sugar, and 2 tbsp (30 g) of Borax, then spreading it on small pieces of cardboard. Borax is toxic if ingested, however, so this isn't safe if you have pets or kids. Scout ants lay a scent trail for their companions to follow, so ants tend to use the same pathways over and over again. Identify several areas with high ant traffic and place the bait stations there. The ants will take over the job from there!  Worker ants will collect the solid, liquid, or gelatinous poison inside the bait stations—which they think is tasty food—and bring it back to their nest to share. From there, the poison will quickly spread through and decimate the colony. Bait stations are generally safe to use around kids and pets, so long as they don’t break into the “igloo.” Follow the instructions on the package if a child or pet ingests any of the poison, or contact a poison control center or...

Many types of organic matter, like compost, composted manure, and acidic mulches can gradually lower your soil pH over time. As organic matter decomposes, bacteria and other microbes grow and feed upon it, creating acidic by-products in the process. Because organic matter needs time to decompose to alter the soil, this option is great for long-term goals, but won't give you dramatic results in the short-term. Many gardeners opt to add organic matter to their soil annually for a gradual, mild pH-lowering effect. However, this will not work for heavy clay soils. Organic matter can also give your soil other benefits — most noticeably, improving its drainage and aeration. For rapid pH-lowering, don't rely on the slow, gradual decay of organic matter. Instead, use one of the many acidic soil additives available at your local garden supply store. Of these additives, aluminum sulfate, is one of the quickest-acting options available. Aluminum sulfate produces acidity in the soil as soon as it dissolves, which, for gardening purposes, means that it basically works instantly. Because of this, aluminum sulfate is a great choice for urgent pH lowering.  Depending on the starting pH of your soil, the amount of aluminum sulfate you should use can vary significantly. In very general terms, you should expect to use about 1.2 pounds of aluminum sulfate to lower the pH of a 10-square foot patch of soil by one on the pH scale (e.g., from 7.0 to 6.0, from 6.0 to 5.0, etc.). However, using too much additive can be harmful to your plant, so consult an online resource (like the one here) for more precise usage information. Do not use aluminum sulfate for large applications because it can lead to aluminum accumulation and aluminum toxicity in soil. Another useful pH-lowering soil additive is sublimed sulfur. Compared to aluminum sulfate, sulfur is generally cheaper, more powerful (in terms of the amount needed) and slower-acting. This is because sulfur needs to be metabolized by bacteria in the soil to be converted to sulfuric acid,...

Many websites make money from providing ads. Lots of sites want to increase the chance of people clicking and get affected by them, so they provide certain ads to individuals based on data (which is bought by tracking companies or collected by themselves) that has tracked their personal interests to make the ads more interesting. There are multiple methods to collect this tracking data, such as installing tracking cookies to your computer, logging your IP address (your computer's internet "address"), what site you previously visited, the browser you are using, your operating system, how long you spend time on the site, what links you click on the site, and even what other sites you visit (with the help of tracking cookies). All of this occurs automatically when visiting sites doing this data mining, without you noticing. Popular search engines, including Google, Bing, Yahoo! and Yandex, store your search queries along with your IP address (and account if you are logged in) associated with them. These are compiled and analyzed to more accurately target ads and provide relevant search results. If your computer is logged into any social networks (Facebook, Twitter, etc.), these networks will be able to track your browsing history directly associated with your social network information if the websites you visit have social network plugins ("Like" buttons, Retweet buttons, etc.). This is most commonly used to determine if customers are using the network to download torrents of copyrighted materials. No matter how much you cover your tracks, there is always some information that can potentially be used to profile and potentially identify you.

Many women have a delay of several hours or even days before breast milk supply fully arrives. Let-down of milk may be delayed by medication, a surgical birth, or extended separation from your baby after birth. Do not get frustrated if your milk supply seems to be delayed, as most women take up to a week to get a full supply in their breasts on a regular basis. The first several days after your baby is born, you may only produce colostrum. Colostrum arrives before regular milk and is thick, yellowish fluid that provides high fat content and important antibodies and nutrients to your baby. In the first several days after birth, this is the only nutrition your baby is likely to need, and the amount you may produce during feeding will be small but adequate for your newborn. Direct contact with your baby encourages the release of hormones in your body that stimulate milk production and emotional bonding with your child. Cuddling and letting the baby rest on your bare skin will help signal your body to produce breast milk. The process of giving birth naturally signals your body to begin milk production.  Unless you have a medical condition or physical problem that precludes milk production (which is very rare), your body will produce what is necessary for your baby to consume during the first week. Your newborn’s stomach will be small, and his or her nutritional needs will be limited. As your baby’s nutritional needs and stomach size grow, your milk supply will also increase, and your production will keep pace with or exceed your baby’s needs.

Many writers start off with a very short description of a character before doing a full profile. This quick description usually describes a distinguishing feature and sets the tone for the character’s role in the story. Before planning a character completely, imagine how you might introduce that character into the story and what you'd want the audience to know about them. Write this out in a short sentence to get started.  When you get the introduction down, use all of the details you provided to build more background and personality for the character. You might introduce a character as “tired and looking much older than he really is.” This is a great starting point because it gives you plenty to dive into for the character’s background. Think about why they look older than they really are and what struggles have they faced that wore them down. This is general information about the character that helps you create a more detailed profile of their personality. Basic information includes age, birthday, current residence, and job.  Then use this basic information to get more specific. If you decided on a job for the character, think about their income. What social class does this put them in? You don’t have to fill in every single aspect of the character’s life. This is more of an exercise to get your creativity working and put you inside the mind of the character you’re planning. Physical descriptions are important for main characters. You may have already had an appearance in mind for your character before you started writing the profile, or you may have to develop one. In either case, write down your plan for the character’s appearance and how you’ll describe it in the story. Think about what the character’s appearance means for their personality as you move further.  Start with very basic information like hair and eye color and clothes the character normally wears. Does the character have a beard or not? Is their hair color natural or dyed? Then get more detailed about the appearance. Decide if the character...

Maple trees are easy to grow from cuttings. Select a maple tree branch that is appealing in shape. The size of the branch can be up to the diameter of your little finger.  There are many possible cultivars of Japanese maple. Select according to what you're wanting––some will grow larger than others, some have rough bark and some require grafting. It's a good idea to take several cuttings; that way, you will be assured that one will take well (sometimes the roots are weak, rot or simply don't form). Note that red-leafed cultivars of the Japanese maple tend to have weak root systems and are usually grafted onto other rootstocks. Unless you know how to graft or have someone knowledgeable to help you, it might be a good idea to avoid the red-leafed cultivars until you are more experienced.

Marilyn Monroe is known for her gorgeous, sexy dresses, and if you want to look like her, then you have to get comfortable with wearing them as often as you can. In general, her dresses served to emphasize her hourglass figure, often with a more low-cut look and a belt around her waist. Here are some dresses that you can try for inspiration:  A halter neck dress. This dress is Marilyn's most famous, known for its appearance in The Seven Year Itch. This dress was white, with a full skirt with ruffles beneath it, that looked gorgeous when it blew in the wind, exposing her legs. Strapless dresses Dresses with sweetheart necklines to emphasize your bust Red dresses. She is known for her red dresses that match the color of her lips, whether they are strapless, halters, or have sleeves that fall off the shoulder. White or silver dresses with ruffles. Marilyn loved wearing these classy colors, and often wears white strapless dresses or dresses with clear sleeves with ruffles in the skirt. Add some sequins to your dress for a more glamorous look. Though Marilyn mostly stuck to solid color dresses, she sometimes wore dresses with polka dots or red flowers on them. She was also known for wearing stripes. Though you may think of Marilyn Monroe as always dressed up to the nines, she liked to look more casual, on occasion. You can't always be dressed up, and for the days when you feel like having a more casual night in, you can rock her casual style while maintaining your aura of sexiness. Here are some looks you can try:  High waisted blue jeans paired with a white button-down shirt A thick, woven oversized sweater A jean jacket A simple black turtleneck A black-and-white striped turtleneck t-shirt A simple red-and-white striped collared button-down shirt A high-necked long-sleeved orange t-shirt Black checkered pants Though her favorite shoe designer was Salvatore Ferragamo, you don't need to wear such luxurious shoes.

Mark on a calendar when you will do your BSEs. Aim to do a BSE once a month, preferably five to seven days after your period has ended. Doing regular BSEs will help you get to know the "normal" feel of your breasts. Hang a BSE reminder in your bathroom or bedroom so you do not forget. Also, consider starting a journal to record your observations.  Plan to do your BSE in a room with good lighting. Stand with your hands on your hips and look at the mirror. Look to see whether your breasts are their normal size, color, and shape. If you have any of the following symptoms, tell your doctor:  Noticeable swelling yet you are not menstruating at the moment Dimpling, puckering, or bulging skin Inverted nipples Nipples that have moved Redness, rashes, or tenderness. Look for discharge from your nipples. If you have discharge, check its color (yellow, clear) or consistency (bloody, milky). Be aware of nipple discharge that happens when you are not squeezing your nipple. Also tell a doctor if you have clear or bloody discharge or discharge only from one breast. Lie down. Bring the pointer, middle, and ring fingers of your right hand together. Feel your left breast with the pads of your three middle fingers in a small, circular pattern. Your circles should have a circumference of 2 cm. Feel your breast from your collarbone down to your abdomen. Then beginning in your armpit area, move from the side to the middle. Repeat the process with your opposite hand to opposite breast. To ensure you feel the entire area, use a pattern like vertical rows. Next, stand up or sit down and repeat these steps. Cover your breast again. Many women prefer to do this last step in the shower.  Feel for lumps or any other changes. You should report any detectable lumps to your doctor. You should cover your breast with light, medium, and firm pressure in each circle. In other words, do a circle with light pressure and then repeat the same area with medium and firm pressure. You need to apply light pressure to notice tissue nearest to the skin's...

Mark the center of the stud on the wall.  Standard studs are actually 1.5 inches (3.8 cm) wide (after drying and dressing the rough-cut 2" x 4" board). If you don't locate studs when you hang the flatscreen, your TV is likely to weigh down too much on your weakly-supported drywall and fall right off, leaving you with a damaged TV and a damaged wall.  The best way to find the studs is with an electronic stud finder, which you can easily rent at your local hardware supply store. Alternately, you can measure 16" from the corner of the closest wall to find a stud, then keep measuring every 16" if your house is build to code. If you're totally lost about where to find the studs, use your knuckles to tap on the wall where you think a stud might be. A hollow sound means drywall, whereas a thinner sound means stud. Hammer a tiny nail through the spot where you think you've hit a stud. If the nail goes right through, it's drywall; if it takes a while to go in, you've hit a stud. You want to ensure an even, level mounting, so take a little time before you mount to ensure that the final product will be visually appealing. Your pilot holes should be a bit smaller than the bolts you'll be drilling into them. All you want to do is make their job a little easier. You may need another person to help you in the following step. You can use a drill or wing it with just a socket and wrench. Double-check that the mounting bracket is in fact level.  Cut two holes in your wall if you want to hide your cords and keep them from trickling down from your TV.     In the middle of the mounting bracket, cut a square hole. Your mounting bracket should have a square hole designed specifically for this purpose.     One foot from the ground, cut another square hole into the drywall. This hole may be smaller than the first hole.     Feed your cords into the first hole and out the second. If you need to, use a feeder, such as Fish Tape, to help expedite the process.

Marksman rifles are popular because their range is at the middle of an assault and sniper rifles’ range. They deal a great deal of damage while you shoot from a safe distance, and with high accuracy, too.  As per the in-game descriptions, the marksman rifles are:  IA-2: Semi-automatic. Strong and versatile overall. MK14 EBR. Semi-automatic. Moderate recoil, highest damage per round in class. MR-28. Semi-automatic. A built-in Foregrip lowers recoil. Shorter range with highest rate of fire in its class. SVU. Semi-automatic. Effective at long range with moderate recoil. Since marksman rifles cater to short and long range shooting, it is important to know how you can use these weapons to their full potential.  When using marksman rifles, it is best to use the Stalker perk. It drastically makes your movement faster while aiming. As for attachments, equip your weapon with a Force Grip for firing stability, just like the assault rifle. Depending on your play style, you can also attach a Burst Fire on your weapon to shoot bullets faster in just a single burst. With Force Grip attached, you don’t need to worry about as much recoil. Most veteran players do quick-scoping, mainly because it’s a fast and effective way of killing an enemy even before it gets the chance to do anything. The IA-2 pulls off this move efficiently. Try mixing the run-and-gun and sniper play-style when using a marksman rifle. This will confuse your enemies trying to figure out your pattern of play. Your weapon can be fatal regardless of your distance so you have the benefit of changing your pace. When reaching a high-tier Kill Streak reward, it is advisable for you to play it safe first and wait for your final prey. Avoid roaming around to lessen the chances of you getting killed and cutting-off your Kill Streak. Of all the marksman rifles on the list, the MK14 EBR boasts the most overall favorable stats. It may not provide the best mobility, but it sure deals the greatest damage. It could kill an enemy with one bullet to the head in a long distance shot.

Mass transit systems not only help to reduce smog by cutting emissions per citizen, they can also provide a less smoggy ride for you than taking a car. Transit systems like subways, trams, and light rails are often separated from street traffic by being elevated or buried, which means you'll be breathing less car exhaust when you ride them. If you don't want to ride the train, walk or bike around the city. You'll be making a big positive impact by eliminating your transportation emissions, and staying in better shape while you do it.  If your city is especially polluted, don't walk or bike if you can help it. This seems counterintuitive, but it can be dangerous in a city with a serious smog problem. You'll breathe more heavily due to physical exertion, and take in more polluted air as a result. If you must walk or bike in such a city, do your best to take side streets with less traffic, to avoid catching exhaust fumes from passing vehicles. If you need to use a car, don't drive during rush hour any more than you have to. You'll be surrounded by exhaust fumes for the entire trip otherwise.  If you can afford it, consider getting a hybrid electric vehicle to help reduce auto emissions in your city. The less often you leave the purified and well-ventilated air of your home, the less you'll have to breathe in the smog of the city at large.   Plan ahead for necessities. Plan weekly trips for things like grocery shopping and dropping off bill payments, instead of taking multiple shorter trips throughout the week. You'll save on transportation costs, too.  Head out. Plan weekend trips outside of the city rather than within it. The farther you get from the urban core, the less pollution there generally is. Develop a taste for day hikes or birdwatching so you have a good reason to get out of town for a day. If you're just not the outdoorsy type, look up tourist-y small towns past the suburban ring of your metro area and plan visits to go boutique shopping and sample the local flavor instead. If the smog in your city...

Massage parlors usually offer deep tissue massages that provide intense pressure on muscle fibers that you cannot relieve on your own. Clarify to the massage professional which muscle or muscle group is tight, and let them massage the area for at least 30 minutes. Look online for a certified massage spa near you. Search for something like, “certified massage near me.” Chiropractors perform manipulations to the bones that in turn reduce muscle inflammation and pain. Chiropractors also make use of electrical stimulation and massage therapy. If you have a tight muscle that needs relaxing, a chiropractor may be able to provide you with immediate relief. The appointment will take between 15–30 minutes, although you might need to schedule it a few days in advance.  Depending on the severity of the muscle pain, the chiropractor may want to see you 2-3 times a week for several weeks after treatment to continue with pain management. Visits to the chiropractor may be covered under your insurance plan. You'll have to read your policy or contact your insurance company to find out. This is an ancient Chinese treatment that requires the insertion of thin needles into the body to help treat numerous ailments. Acupuncture has been reported to dissolve muscle tension, reduce inflammation and relieve stress. A typical session lasts about 20 to 30 minutes. Look online for a certified acupuncturist near you. Try searching for something like, "professional acupuncture in my area." Acupressure specialists use their fingers, hands, elbows, or other tools to apply pressure to acupoints on the body.   Stretching or massage can also be involved in the treatment. Acupressure can reduce muscle tension and improve circulation which helps with relaxation. Look online for a certified acupressure practitioner near you. The underlying idea to acupressure is the same as to acupuncture, without the application of needles.

Massage the shampoo into your hair and work up a lather. Let it sit for three to five minutes, then rinse it out. Apply the shampoo one more time. Make sure to rinse it completely out of your hair afterwards.  Anti-residue shampoo is formulated to remove buildup from your tresses, such as from conditioners or styling products. This will prepare your hair to evenly absorb the keratin treatment. Anti-residue shampoo is sometimes called “clarifying shampoo.” Run your hands through your hair as you blow dry on a medium heat setting. Make sure that your hair is entirely dry, unless your product’s directions state otherwise. A Brazilian treatment requires your hair to be slightly damp (85-90% dry) whereas a keratin treatment requires fully dry hair. Since the terms “Brazilian” and “keratin” (as they relate to hair treatments) are sometimes used interchangeably, it’s important to check with your product’s instructions. Using a hair pick or comb, make a part down the middle of your hair. Clip up your hair into four to eight sections (depending on how much hair you have). Make sure to clip each section tightly so that it stays secure during the process.

Massage your scalp with warm coconut or castor oil twice a week. Leave it overnight and shampoo the following morning with a natural sulfate free shampoo. Massaging the scalp stimulates growth which can lead to potential hair growth. Brushing wet hair is a big no no when it comes to hair. Never use a brush on wet hair as it will only tear it out. Instead use wide toothed comb, make sure to comb your hair from bottom to top not top to bottom. Purchase products from a local drugstore to help with your lice. Visit a doctor you trust if the problem gets worse. Use home remedies such as applying the juice of basil leaves to your hair, leave overnight, and then wash off.

Massaging any part of your body improves circulation by increasing blood flow to the area, and your scalp is no exception. When you massage your scalp, the increased blood flow stimulates your hair follicles to grow. Scalp massage is a simple and easy technique for helping your hair grow in healthy and fast.  Try massaging your scalp every time you take a shower. Use the tips of your fingers to gently rub your scalp in a circular motion. Be sure to cover the front, back and sides of your head. Repeat the process as much as you like. It has the added benefit of reducing tension and helping you feel calm. Certain essential oils have been shown to help stimulate new hair growth. Increase the benefits of your scalp massage by working in a small amount of essential oil. Pour five to ten drops of oil over your fingertips and massage the oil all over your scalp. Try one of these essential oils:  Peppermint, which improves circulation. Tea tree oil, which soothes the scalp and helps improve dandruff. Lemon oil, which promotes healthy hair growth. This serves the dual purpose of helping promote hair growth and keeping the hair you have strong and soft. Coconut oil, olive oil, almond oil and castor oil are all thought to help hair grow in thick and strong. To do a conditioning treatment, follow these steps:  For olive oil, have damp hair and distribute it throughout your hair. Then flip your head upside down and massage your scalp for 2-3 minutes. Wet your hair and massage one to two tablespoons of oil into your scalp for five minutes. Run your fingers through your hair to distribute the oil from your roots to the tips of your hair. You can also use a wide-tooth comb. Cover your hair with a shower cap and let the oil soak in for one to two hours. Shampoo your hair as normal. You may have to wash it twice to remove excess oil. If your hair is dry or thin, treating it with a nutritious mask can help restore its luster. A restorative hair mask may not help your hair grow quickly, but by protecting the hair you have, it...

Matches are the camping standard, but you could also bring a lighter.  If you’re looking for a real sense of “roughing it” in the great outdoors, you could bring a flint and steel set. You could also pack less conventional fire starters like fire paste, fire disks, and fire cubes. If you cannot buy or harvest firewood from the campsite you’re staying at, you’ll need to bring your own.  In either case, you’ll need to bring an axe along to split it into a more manageable size. You can often buy firewood at big box stores or from private sellers in rural communities. There is no one “right” amount of food and water that you should pack for a camping trip.  If you require a lot of calories and/or plan to be very active during your camping trip, you should pack more food to stay energized.  If you don’t intend to eat much, you can pack less food.  The type of food you bring also varies significantly depending on your circumstances.  If you’re camping with an RV, for instance, you’ll be able to bring foods like eggs and meat that require refrigeration until they’re cooked. If you’re just driving your automobile to the campsite, however, you’ll probably need to rely primarily on canned goods like beans, soups, and canned veggies, so remember to bring a can opener. Even if you have a roaring fire, you won’t be able to cook anything without a set of pots and pans.  You could bring your regular pots and pans, but you’d be better off bringing a smaller, lighter set of pots and pans that were designed specifically for camping. Once you’re done cooking, you’ll need something to eat off of.  Paper plates are ideal because after using them, you can just toss them in the fire.  Bring some utensils, too, including at least one sharp knife and one butter knife. You could bring either plastic utensils or washable ones. Consult a guidebook for the campsite or check their website to determine whether you’ll be able to access water on the campgrounds.  Unless the campsite has a spring or river nearby where you can collect water,...

Maximizing family time only works if everyone is trying to increase the amount of time you spend together.  Encourage your kids to limit their extracurriculars to one or two activities per semester.  Ask your partner to improve their time-management and adopt the same measures that you do in order to maximize family time.  Say to your kids, “Please keep your afterschool activities to one or two per school semester so that we have more family time.” Say to your partner, “I’m reducing my screen time, organizing my things, and finding other ways to maximize my family time.  I’d like to help you do the same.  Let’s do it together.” Calendars or personal planners are great for organizing time in a structured way.  Many people assume that because spending time with the family is not a formal obligation, it doesn’t need a spot on the calendar.  However, if you don’t assign a specific time for hanging out with your family, you might let it slip through the cracks.  To maximize your family time, set aside a few hours each day for them.  Schedule specific family events as well as general “family time” when filling out your planner or calendar.  Schedule date nights at specific venues and restaurants, and plan on going to specific baseball games or fairs with your kids.  Use automatic reminders in your phone or email to stay on top of your scheduled family time. Use vacation time to extend your holidays with your family. If you allow them to, kids will stay glued to their TV or computer.  Set rules that limit the amount of recreational use your child makes of the TV and computer.  One hour of TV and an hour of web surfing each day should be enough.  Explain to your kids that limiting TV and computer screen time not only provides more time for moving and playing outside, but also helps maximize the amount of time that you spend together as a family. Simply say to your kids, “Please spend no more than one hour each day on your phone, computer, or in front of the television.  That way, you’ll have more time to spend with...

Maybe other students try to pick fights with you. Or maybe you feel the urge to fight with someone else. Either way, dealing with potential aggression can be a very emotional experience. Look for people who can help support you.  Your parents can help you deal with this tough situation. Ask them if you can talk. Be specific in your request. Say, "Mom, can I talk to you about a tough problem I'm dealing with?" Be open and honest. Tell your parents exactly what the issue is. Work together to try to find a solution. Teachers are another very helpful resource. If you have a teacher that you are close to, consider asking that person to offer you some tips. You can ask to keep your conversation confidential.  Tell your teacher your concerns. For example, you can say, "I have been arguing a lot with Jason lately. I'm worried that we might get in an actual fight." You can also try talking to the school guidance counselor. Counselors are trained to help students deal with difficult situations. Consider talking to a coach or an adviser of one of your after school activities. Any adult who knows you will likely be able to help you think of some ways to avoid fights. You're likely busy with school, activities, and chores. But don't forget to make time to hang out with your friends. Friends are an important resource, too.  Your friends can make you laugh. When you are more relaxed, you will be less likely to be tempted to fight. Spend time with people who are genuine. You and your friends should be kind to one another. You should also be honest with each other. If you're having an issue with a classmate, tell your friend about it. Say, "I'm worried I might get in a fight. Can you sit with me at lunch next week?" Junior high and high school can cause stress. It is difficult to find a positive way to deal with changes as you get older. Just remember, there is always someone who can listen.  Use the internet. There are lots of discussion forums and chat rooms devoted to helping teens. Look for a site that offers advice for...

Maybe you are not trying to go out of your way to see your crush, but you share a friend group and want to be friendly and cool with them- you can use these steps to help create a good connection with them. Or if you want to get into contact with your old crush and you can’t or don’t want to contact them directly, hang out with the mutual friends you have, and go to events they will probably be at.  You can call your friends and ask them about the events and parties that are coming up and then attend those events. Or if you know they go to certain church activities, for example, you can start attending those activities again. Don’t use your friends to get to your crush. For example, when you hang out with your friends, be there to have a good time with them first, and consider seeing your crush second. That way if it doesn’t work out, you will still have a good time, and you won’t mistreat your friends. When you first see each other, make sure you acknowledge them. If you see them across the room, give them a smile, and a friendly wave or greeting. If it doesn’t seem like a good time to talk, tell them “It is great to see you! I want to talk to you. Can you give me a minute?” You can finish doing what you are doing, and let them finish doing what they are doing, too.  Giving yourself a minute will help you compose yourself and can add a good element of anticipation for your conversation. Think about an interesting topic of conversation or something that you can ask them about as an ice breaker before you walk up and talk to them. For example, you can make an observation about the party you are at by saying something like, “I like that they really made sure that all of our chip needs are met at this party.” Then gesture to a table covered in 10 different types of chips. Once they are free to talk, start a conversation. If you are somewhere where it is difficult to talk, ask them, “Do you want to find a better place to talk?” Look for somewhere quiet and relaxed where you sit down and catch up uninterrupted. If...

Maybe you like writing as a hobby, or perhaps you want to publish a book. Maybe you have a long essay due for a class, or maybe you want to improve your copywriting skills at work. No matter what, you can always improve your writing. Understanding your writing goals simply makes it easier to know what to focus on moving forward. For example, if you’re writing a paper for a scientific journal, you won’t need to establish a setting as a novelist would. Understanding what you want to write helps you tailor your skill-building approach. Read a wide breadth of authors, genres, and writing styles to expand your understanding of different styles and voices. Reading helps you develop what you want to write about and how you want your writing to sound.  Don’t limit yourself to one specific genre. Read novels, non-fiction books, fan fiction, poetry news articles, academic journal articles, and even good marketing material. Familiarizing yourself with as many writing styles as possible gives you a bigger toolbox. It's also a great idea to read texts that can help you accomplish the type of writing you want to do. If, for example, you’re writing a sci-fi novel, scientific journal articles will help you master the technical speech while good ad copy can teach you about sensationalism and emotional appeal. Keep up a regular reading schedule.  Even if it's only 20 minutes a day before you go to sleep, you'll notice an improvement in your writing. topics, plots, and characters for a creative piece. Before you can start writing, you need an idea about which to write. You could write about zombie-mummy romances. You could write about Mercury. You could even write about yourself. There is nothing you can't write about. Consider these questions to help get you started:  What genre are you writing in? What themes do you want at the core of your story? What important traits will your main character have? What will motivate your antagonist? What tone (comedy, tragedy, etc.) will your story have? Why should the reader be interested...

Maybe you tried to hold your girlfriend's hand and she did not want to. This can happen, but it isn't anything to get too upset over. Maybe she wasn't ready for it and it took her by surprise. It could be that she hadn't thought about holding hands before, and she needs some time to consider if she wants to. After she tells you she doesn't want to hold hands, don't retreat or go silent. It may be that she isn't ready to hold hands or was taken by surprise. You don't want to make her feel bad for not wanting to hold hands.   Say something like: "That's ok, I just thought I'd ask". This will stop her from feeling bad or guilty. You could also say: "That's fine, it's nice just to be with you". Saying this saves the situation from being awkward and shows her that no matter what, you care about her. You know the old phrase "It's not you, it's me?" Well, it really could be her! There are a lot of reasons why she could have rejected your offer, so try not to take it personally or as a reflection of your relationship. Holding hands is often a sign that you are part of a couple. Are you public about your relationship? Maybe she didn't want to hold hands because she felt it was the wrong moment for your relationship to go public.   Don't ask your girlfriend about your relationship status right after you try and hold her hand. That could make it seem like you are overreacting. If you feel comfortable having a conversation like that, choose another day to bring it up. If you don't want to talk about it with her, take a minute to think about it yourself. Do your friends know about it, and have you appeared together at a dance or some kind of event where people saw you as a couple? Answering these questions to yourself can give you an answer about your relationship status. It could be that your girlfriend was taken by surprise and said no before she could think about it. It also is possible that she wants to hold hands, but she wants to be the one in control who initiates it. Keep the opportunity there by walking beside...

Maybe your goal is specific: you want to climb Mount Everest, stop smoking, or get a better job. Or maybe it's more a more general goal to be a better family member or a happier person. Either way, the path toward meeting your goals will be more clear if you take the time to do some deep thinking and preparation.  Make sure your goal is SMART: specific, measurable, achievable, realistic, and time-bound. If you have a specific goal in mind, plot out a course to help you reach it. Do research to find out what steps you need to take along the way. If it's helpful, create a schedule that will help you meet your goal. Give yourself a deadline for each step along the way. Whatever your goal, prepare to put in some time and work. Developing the mental strength to persevere takes a lot of practice, but you can start right now. The first hurdle you're likely to encounter is correcting the state of your own self-confidence. It's really difficult to make progress unless you believe you're capable of persevering. No matter how unobtainable your goals may seem now, you have the intelligence and power to get there. If your goal is to overcome problems and face life's troubles with grace, you can do that, too.  Don't compare yourself to other people. Doing so will inevitably lead to self doubt. You have the power to persevere using your unique strengths and talents, and your process is going to be different from other people's. If there are things in your life that hurt your confidence,  get rid of them. For example, if you tend to fall back on harmful habits like drinking, abusing drugs or eating only junk food, this will make it harder to see yourself as a person with the mental toughness to persevere. Take steps to end addictive behaviors and bad habits. Spend time doing things you're good at. Practicing your skills, like playing a sport, making art,  cooking, reading, knitting, or gardening, is a great way to build up your confidence. Spend time doing things that make you feel satisfied and positive about life. Getting...

Maybe you’ve already spent a lot of time thinking about what your dream wedding will look like. If not, now is the time to start. Before you start buying attire and supplies, look for inspiration in wedding magazines, wedding websites, and visual inspiration sites like Pinterest. You could even look at photographs of real weddings you’ve attended to get ideas.  Get a scrapbook for clippings or put together a virtual vision board with images you like. Consider both small details (like what you want your cake to look like) and the general look or theme you are going for. For example, if you’re having an outdoor wedding in autumn, you might go for a rustic aesthetic with warm, cozy color combinations. If you are a bride, it’s a good idea to purchase your dress about 8 months in advance. You’ll need time to do a few fittings and get any necessary adjustments done in the months leading up to the wedding. Allow at least 6 months for purchasing and fitting dresses and suits for the wedding party.  Make sure to bring your wedding shoes along when trying on dresses or suits. This will make it easier to coordinate your outfit and make sure that your hemlines are the right length. Don’t worry about sticking to traditional wedding attire if it’s not your thing. For example, if you’re a bride, maybe you’d rather wear a sleek pantsuit than a lacy wedding dress. You can also consider wearing an outfit or accessory that has sentimental meaning for you, like your dad’s old suit or your grandma’s veil. Consider factors like the overall look, date, and setting of the wedding. For example, you might want to wear a long-sleeved dress if you’re having an outdoor wedding in cool weather. . Go shopping for wedding bands with your future spouse at least 3 months in advance. This will give you plenty of time to make any needed adjustments, such as sizing changes or engraving. If you and/or your partner wears an engagement ring, consider getting bands that match with the engagement ring. Do a search for bakeries that make wedding cakes...

Meanwhile, measure out your frozen whole corn kernels.  You can add up to 1 tsp (5 mL) of salt to the boiling water, if desired, but the salt is not necessary. The corn does not need to be thawed prior to use. You could also use canned corn kernels instead of frozen corn. Note that the amount of time needed to boil canned corn is significantly less than the amount of time needed to boil frozen corn. Additionally, canned corn should be drained before you add it to the boiling water. If the boiling decreases or stops, let the water come up to a boil again. After it returns to a rolling boil, reduce the heat to medium-low. Frozen whole kernels of corn should simmer for 5 to 10 minutes. Drain once finished.  Canned corn should only boil for 1 to 3 minutes. Once finished, the corn should be hot and tender but not mushy. Do not refreeze corn kernels after cooking them. If desired, you can mix the cooked corn kernels with butter, salt, and black pepper. You can also use other seasonings, like parsley, according to your own tastes.

Meanwhile, prepare a shallow baking pan or baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.  The parchment paper prevents the sausages from sticking while also absorbing some of the excess fat that renders off during the cooking process. If you cannot use parchment paper, place a metal cooling or baking rack on top of the baking sheet instead. The rack will allow the excess fat to drip off during the cooking process, preventing the sausages from baking in that fat. Line up the sausages on the baking sheet, arranging them in a single layer and leaving at least 1 inch (2.5 cm) of space between them.  You can cook breakfast sausage links and breakfast sausage patties using this method. The exact baking times may vary, but the overall process should remain the same for both types. Roll breakfast sausage can be cooked using this method, as well. Slice the roll into 1/2 inch (1.25 cm) patties and treat those patties as you would treat the pre-formed version. Place the sausages in the preheated oven. Cook sausage patties for 15 to 16 minutes; cook sausage links for 20 to 25 minutes.  Both links and patties should be turned once halfway through the cooking process to promote even browning on both sides. When ready, the sausages should be browned throughout and the juices should run clear. The internal temperature at the center of each portion should be a minimum of 160 degrees Fahrenheit (70 degrees Celsius). Remove the sausages from the oven and transfer them to individual serving plates. Enjoy them while they're still hot.  If the sausages are still too greasy for your liking after removing them from the oven, you can blot away any excess grease using clean paper towels. Any unused sausage can be refrigerated for 1 or 2 days, or frozen for up to 1 month.

Meanwhile, remove the husks and silks from your ears of corn.  If using a gas grill, set all the burners to medium-high heat and allow the grill to preheat for 5 to 10 minutes. If using a charcoal grill, allow a thick layer of coals to burn until white ash begins to form over the surface. Husk the corn by snapping off the stem and pulling it over the length of the corn, thereby removing the husk attached to the stem. Peel away the rest of the husk with your fingers. Rinse the ears under running water to remove most of the loose silks. Use a basting brush to apply a thin coat of olive oil to the surface of each ear of corn. Use no more than 1 Tbsp (15 mL) olive oil per ear. You could also use melted butter instead of olive oil. Cook for 6 to 10 minutes.  Turn the corn occasionally to ensure even cooking and prevent burning. The corn is done once the majority of the kernels begin to brown lightly. It will also be charred in some spots, especially near the smaller kernels. Remove the corn from the grill and transfer each ear to a serving platter. Let cool until you can handle it comfortably with your bare hands. Butter and salt are frequently served with corn, but if you used butter on the corn before grilling it, you may find that you do not need to add more.

Measure 1/2 cup to 1 cup (42 to 84 g) of dry elbow macaroni noodles into a microwave-safe bowl. Pour enough water to cover the noodles by 2 inches (5 cm).  The noodles will absorb the water as they cook, so use a bowl that's large enough for them to expand. This will make 1 to 2 servings. If you'd like to double the amount, use a larger bowl and add more water. Place a microwave-safe plate under the bowl to catch any water that might boil over. Put the plate and bowl in the microwave. Turn on the microwave and heat the noodles so the water begins to boil and the noodles soften. Once the timer beeps, check the noodles to see if they're as soft as you want.  If you want softer noodles, microwave them for another 1 to 2 minutes. Set a colander or strainer in the sink. Wear oven mitts to remove the bowl of cooked elbow macaroni from the microwave. Pour the noodles and water into the colander so the water drains. Stir the cooked elbow macaroni into your favorite sauce or soup. Refrigerate the leftover elbow macaroni in an airtight container for 3 to 4 days.

Measure 2 cups (470 ml) brown basmati rice, and pour it into a medium-sized bowl of cold tap water. Use your hand to swish the rice around until the water becomes cloudy-looking and foam appears on the edges.  While rinsing it can wash away some of the rice's nutrients, brown basmati rice is typically imported and may be processed with talc, powdered glucose and rice powder. Rice connoisseurs, therefore, recommend rinsing it. Doing so will also get rid of some of the starch, which will help make your rice less gluey. Pour out the water through a mesh strainer or by tilting the bowl to the side. You can hold a plate over the bowl to keep the rice from spilling out as you drain the water. Add more cool tap water and repeat this process until the water is clear. This could require up to 10 rounds of washing the rice.  Add 2.5 cups (590 ml) cold water to the drained and rinsed rice and let it soak between 30 minutes to 24 hours depending upon the method of cooking and how long you want to cook it. The longer you allow it to soak, the less time it will take to cook.  Additionally, basmati rice is known for its rich flavor, which can be lost during the heating process. Soaking it reduces cooking time, thus preserving more of its flavor.  Soaking rice also improves its texture, making it softer and lighter. Use a mesh strainer to drain the water that has not been absorbed by the rice. You can also use a colander, but the holes must be very small so the rice doesn't escape when you strain it.

Measure out the mass of the solute that you plan on mixing with your solution. Be sure to subtract the weight of the container you’re using to measure the solute or else your concentration will be inaccurate. If your solute is a liquid, you may need to calculate the mass using the formula D = m/V, where D is the liquid’s density, m is the mass, and V is the volume. Look up the density of the liquid in a textbook or online and then solve the equation for the mass. The total mass of the solution is the mass of the solvent plus the mass of the solute. Weight the masses using a lab scale or convert the volume of the solvent to mass by using the density formula D = m/V. Add the mass of the solute to the mass of the solvent to find your final volume. For example, if you want to find the concentration of 10 g of cocoa powder mixed with 1.2 L of water, you would find the mass of the water using the density formula. The density of water is 1,000 g/L, so your equation would read 1,000 g/L = m/(1.2 L). Multiply each side by 1.2 L to solve the mass in grams, so m = (1.2 L)(1,000 g/L) = 1,200 g. Add the mass of the cocoa powder to get 1,210 g. Set up your equation so the concentration C = mass of the solute/total mass of the solution. Plug in your values and solve the equation to find the concentration of your solution. In our example, C = (10 g)/(1,210 g) = 0.00826. If you’re asked to list the concentration in a percentage, take the answer you just found and multiply it by 100. Label your final answer with a percentage sign. In this example, the percent concentration is (0.00826)(100) = 0.826%. Use the number you found for your concentration and multiply it by 1,000,000 or 106. The number will be how many parts per million the solute is. Label your final answer in ppm. In our example, the ppm = (0.00826)(1,000,000) = 8,260 ppm.

Measure the circumference around the thickest part of your upper arm, usually at the bicep. Measure the circumference around your chest at its widest point. For most men this will be at the armpits, for most women this will be at the nipple line. Measure the circumference around your natural waist and your lower waist (two separate measurements). The natural waist is the smallest point of your waist (unlike where clothes’ waistlines are located these days) and is usually an inch or two above your bellybutton.  Your lower waist is the widest part of your waist, usually at the bellybutton or just below, where weight is generally gained first. Measure the circumference around your hips at the widest point. This will usually be roughly just above the crotch line. Measure the circumference around your upper thigh at its widest point. This is usually ½ to 3/4’s of the way up your thigh, from the knee. Measure the circumference around your calf at its widest point, usually roughly ¾ of the way up from the ankle. For weight monitoring, you may include your body weight as a body measurement. This measurement will need to be taken with a scale, either electronic or manual. You can find scales for sale at many stores, or for use at gyms and doctor’s offices. The easiest way to measure your height is to stand straight with no shoes on and place your back against a wall. Using a pencil, place the pencil flat against the top of your head with the writing end against the wall. Carefully mark your height against the wall. Step away and measure from the mark down to the floor using any measuring tape. You may wish to use the above measurements to calculate your body fat or BMI if you are intending to monitor your weight loss. Be aware that body fat calculations are frequently inaccurate or unreliable, though BMI is a fairly accurate way of measuring your weight (unless you are a fit athlete, in which case better not).

Measure the final amount of juice you end up with after the straining process is complete. Pour it into a large, clean pot. Stir in just under a cup of sugar for every cup of juice.  If you like very sweet jelly, add a full cup of sugar for every cup of juice. For jelly that is tangy and not too sweet, reduce the sugar by a teaspoon per cup and add a few teaspoons of lemon juice. Stir the mixture constantly so the sugar doesn't get stuck to the sides and bottom of the pot. Continue stirring until the sugar has completely dissolved into the juice. The jelly will begin producing a layer of foam on its surface as it cooks. Use a spoon to skim this off and discard it. Keep skimming off the foam until the sugar is dissolved. As the jelly heats, it will begin to change consistency, since quince have natural properties that cause jelling to occur. When the jelly is ready it will cool into a gelatin-like substance, rather than being runny like juice.  Check to see if the jelly is ready by spooning a bit onto a cold plate. After a few seconds, touch it. If it feels like jelly and slightly resists your touch, it's ready. If it's wet like juice, keep cooking it. You can also determine whether the jelly is ready by checking its temperature. Use a candy thermometer to monitor the temperature; the jelly should be ready when it reaches 220 °F (104 °C).

Measure the length and width of your chair or bench seat first, then cut the resulting square or rectangle out of thick, upholstery foam. Use a hand saw or serrated knife to do this; do not use scissors.  You can find these foam inserts in the foam and pillow filling section of a craft store. You can reuse an old chair cushion, as long as it is box-shaped with a defined height. Don't use a plain, old pillow for this.

Measure your height with your makeshift ruler if you don’t have a tape measure or standard ruler.  Consider this method if you need to find your height right away and don’t have time to get a ruler. Be aware that this will be an approximate measurement. Making a ruler by measuring a dollar bill is easy because all bills in the United States are 6 inches long (½ feet).  Lay the bill next to the string. Lay the bill and string flat with your hand. Mark the end of the bill on the string with a marker and repeat until you reach 6 feet. Use another bill if you don’t have a dollar bill. Attach the string to the wall using tape.  Be sure not to break the string. Stand up straight with your feet and back against the wall. Mark the top of your head on the wall. Look at the string to find your height.

Meat that is left out of the fridge or freezer for long periods of time is at-risk for spoiling. Leaving your meat out at room temperature for long periods of time increases the risk of spoilage. Instead, thaw meat using the microwave, which is both a quicker and safer method. Thawing frozen meat in the fridge is a safe alternative to the counter. Meat should be stored in the refrigerator at a temperature of 40 °F (4 °C). If your meat is stored at any warmer of a temperature, it is more likely to spoil. Throw out food that has been kept for many hours at room temperature. Although meats will only keep for several days in a fridge, it can last for months in the freezer. To extend the shelf life of your meat, place it in a sealed container and freeze it until you plan to eat it. Frozen meats can develop freezer burn which, while not dangerous, often tastes unpleasant. Even if your meat appears unspoiled, it can still be infected with harmful bacteria. Do not eat meat that has been left out in the kitchen for too long or is well past its sell-by date. Because not all foodborne bacteria are detectable, cooking your meat to the right temperature is key for preventing food poisoning. Cooking red meat to between 120–165 °F (49–74 °C) (depending on rareness) is ideal. Poultry should be cooked to 165 °F (74 °C). Seafood is safest when cooked to 145 °F (63 °C). Some seafood, like sushi, is eaten raw. In this case, follow cooking instructions carefully and throw the meat out if you notice signs of spoilage.

Medical or surgical masks are intended to cover both your mouth and nose.  They are designed with material that can block large-particle droplets, splashes, sprays and splatter — all of which may contain viruses or bacteria that may be harmful to you. An N95 respirator is a device used by health practitioners to block 95% of very small particles.  Unlike medical masks, N95 respirators fit more securely on your face and against your skin, and are able to filter airborne particles.  While an N95 respirator can block 95% of very small particles — very small being considered 0.3 microns — there is still a 5% chance harmful particles can penetrate the respirator. N95 respirators are not designed for use by children or by people who have facial hair. Some N95 masks come with an exhalation valve that is designed to reduce condensation build-up inside the mask and allow the wearer to breathe easier.  These masks, however, should not be used in a situation where a sterile field is required as the exhalation valve allows unfiltered (and possibly contaminated) air to leave the mask.  In general, each type of N95 mask should come with detailed instructions from the manufacturer explaining how to put on and take off the mask.  In order to ensure proper protection for both you and your patients, these instructions — above all others — must be followed.  The Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) also requires that users are trained how to fit and use N95 respirators.

Medicated eye drops are the most common way of treating glaucoma. These require a prescription so the eye doctor can regularly check eye pressure as well as any complications that may occur. Over-the-counter eye drops are not recommended in combination with prescription eye drops. Prescription eye drops can lower eye pressure by slowly improving fluid drainage in your eyes. These are usually taken every day, of course with the guidance of an ophthalmologist. If this sounds like a convenient solution for you, talk to your doctor.  She will be able to set you up with the kind that is right for you. This type of eye drop is used to reduce the fluid in the eyes. Examples of this drug include timolol (Betimol) betaxolol (Betoptic), and metipranolol (OptiPranolol). These are usually given one drop, once or twice daily. The side effects of this eye drop may include breathing problems, hair loss, fatigue, depression, memory loss, a drop in blood pressure, and impotence. This eye drop has replaced beta-blockers as the most common eye drop used because it does have fewer side effects. This drop, usually given one per day, increases fluid flow in the eye and reduces eye pressure. Its possible side effects include a reddening and stinging feeling in the eyes, a little swell in the outer part of the eye and the iris of the eye becoming dark. The color of the eyelids may also change. These are also called miotics because they narrow the size of the pupils. On the other hand, they help with glaucoma by increasing fluid flow in the eye. Common examples are pilocarpine and carbachol.  Possible side effects are having smaller pupils (less intake of light), blurred vision, an aching brow, and an increased risk of retinal detachment. These eye drops are infrequently used anymore as a treatment for glaucoma because it usually requires one drop, three to four times a day. Rather it is now commonly used to keep pupils smaller prior to laser iridotomy — in other words, conditions unrelated to glaucoma. These eye drops reduce fluid...

Meditation helps ease anxiety, and can also help you relax to promote sleepiness. Meditation is not difficult to begin. Simply breathe in and out slowly and deeply from your diaphragm, focusing on the sensation and pattern of your breath.  Breathe slowly and deeply. Count to three slowly while you inhale, hold the breath for three seconds, then exhale slowly to the count of three.  Repeat as many times as necessary to feel calmer and more relaxed. Try using a mantra. Some people find that meditating to a particular phrase over and over helps them relax. Some experts recommend a good self-affirming mantra, such as "I feel safe and secure at night" or "I will sleep soundly at night." Listening to music may help lower your blood pressure and help you relax. If you have an album that always helps you unwind, try listening to that before bed. If not, find something that you find soothing. Many people find instrumental music like jazz or ambient sounds to be relaxing for bedtime. Some people find that doing something relaxing, like taking a hot bath or shower, reading a book, or working on a craft can help relax the mind before bed. Figure out something that you find relaxing and try to set aside some time each night before bed to indulge in your own pre-bedtime activities. It may sound obvious, but engaging in stressful activities shortly before bed can make you more anxious, which in turn may increase the chances of losing sleep. Avoid doing anything work-related or school-related before bed (which includes checking your work email), and resist the urge to look at the clock if you're lying restless in bed. Looking at the clock and counting how much sleep you're going to lose will only stress you out more, making it even more difficult to sleep.

Meditation is a fantastic way to clear your mind and escape reality; it is traditionally used to make the mind calm and peaceful. Proper meditation enables you to take your mind into a calm space and put reality on hold.. The best part is that meditation can be done in the comfort of your own home (or even bed) and requires no prior training or monthly membership.  Choose a peaceful environment, preferably one without distractions. The temperature should be comfortable, it should be as quiet as possible, and you should be able to be alone for 30 minutes. Find a comfortable position. Many people like to lay on the floor with their bodies relaxed, their feet pointed outwards, and their palms facing upwards. There is no “right” position in which to meditate, so find a position in which it is comfortable for you to lie still. You can also try the lotus position. Close your eyes. This allows you to tune out anything that is going on around you. If necessary cover your eyes with a mask or a towel. If you are in a noisy place, it may help to wear earplugs. Think of nothing. Relax completely, let your mind go free. Be aware of your breathing. Don’t necessarily try to control your breath, but simply breathe and be aware of it.  Expect good meditation to take practice. At first, it is almost inevitable that your mind will wander. However, with practice, you will be able to completely clear your mind during your period of meditation. When your mind does wander, bring your focus back to your breath.  Consider using downloadable meditation programs. Simply go to Google or YouTube and search for “meditation.” Listening to music is a fantastic way to clear your mind and make a mental escape from reality. Music has been scientifically shown to affect many different areas of the brain, and it can actually help you achieve self-awareness and regulate your mood. It is also a commonly used tool to engage in escapism.  If you are unsure of what type or genre of music to listen to, you can try to listen to ambient music or...

Meditation is one of the most important practices in Buddhism, because it provides insight, stillness, quietness of mind, temporary reprieve from suffering, inner peace, and helps you on the path to enlightenment.  To meditate properly, it's important to find a spot that's quiet, and that will allow you to concentrate on your practice. A bedroom or other empty room is a good place. Turn off your phone, the television, music, and any other distractions. Sit cross-legged on the floor or on a cushion if that's comfortable for you. If you are not comfortable in that position, try kneeling, or sit on a chair.  Once you've found a comfortable seat, sit upright, hold your head straight, and relax your back and shoulders.  Place your hands palms-down on your thighs or folded in your lap. You can close your eyes, keep them partially open, or leave them completely open for your practice. Especially when you're first starting out, find a position and arrangement that's comfortable and that facilitates your meditation. If you want to keep your eyes open or partially open, shift your gaze downward and fix it on something a few feet or yards in front of you. One of the most important parts of a meditation practice is the focus on your breath. You don't necessarily have to breathe a certain way, but you do want to concentrate on the air flowing in and out of your body.  The focus on the breath is important because it helps you concentrate on the present moment without fixing your thoughts on any one idea. Meditation is also about being mindful and present, and focusing on your inhalation and exhalation is a great way to center yourself and be present in the moment. One of the main goals of meditation is clearing your mind and finding calmness. To start, allow your thoughts to come and to pass without getting caught up in any of them. If you find yourself becoming fixated on a particular thought during, go back to focusing on your breathing.  Do this for about 15 minutes a day for the first week. Then, extend your sessions...

Meditation should be practiced in a peaceful location. A tranquil environment will enable you to focus exclusively on the task at hand and avoid external stimuli and distractions. Find a place where you will not be interrupted for the duration of your meditation—whether it lasts 5 minutes or half an hour. The space does not need to be very large—a walk-in closet or even an outdoor bench can be used for meditation as long as you have privacy.  For those new to meditation, it's especially important to avoid any external distractions. Turn off TV sets, phones, or other noisy appliances.  If you play music, choose calm, repetitive tunes to avoid breaking your concentration. You can also play white noise or quiet nature sounds, like running water. Your meditation space does not need to be completely silent, so you won’t need earplugs. The sound of a lawnmower or dog barking shouldn't prevent effective meditation. In fact, being aware of these noises without letting them dominate your thoughts is an important component of meditation. Meditating outside works for many so long as you don't sit near a busy roadway or another source of loud noise. You can find peace under a tree or sitting on some lush grass in a favorite corner of a garden. One of the major goals of meditation is to calm the mind and block out external distractions. This can be difficult if you feel physically uncomfortable due to tight or restrictive clothing. Try to wear loose clothing during meditation practice and make sure to remove your shoes.  Wear a sweater or cardigan if you plan on meditating someplace cool, or bring a blanket or shawl you can wrap around yourself. You don’t want the sensation of feeling cold to consume your thoughts. If you are in a place where you can't easily change your clothes, do your best to make yourself as comfortable as possible. Try just taking off your shoes. Before you begin, you should decide how long you are going to meditate. While many seasoned meditators recommend 20-minute sessions twice a day, beginners...

Meditation will help you focus and harness your subconscious mind. Before meditating, determine the length of your session. If you are a beginner, try to meditate for 5 minutes. Change into comfortable clothes. Grab a timer and proceed to a quiet, peaceful environment. Choose a location without clutter or distractions. Sit outside, on the floor your apartment, or on your back porch. Stretch before assuming a comfortable seated position. Touch your toes, release the tension from your neck, and relax your shoulders. Find a stable seat. Sit in a straight backed chair with your feet planted firmly on the ground or cross-legged on top of a pillow on the floor. Straighten your back—your spine’s natural curve should be present. Position your upper arms parallel to the sides of your body. Your elbows will have a slight bend and your hands will naturally fall gently atop your knees. Lower your chin slightly and gaze at the floor. Settle into the position, become aware of your body, before you proceed. Close your eyes and begin to follow your breath. Focus on your inhale and your exhale. As you relax, your mind will wander. Thoughts will flow from your subconscious mind to your conscious mind. Note these thoughts, but don’t judge them. Allow these thoughts to pass. When you realize your mind has wandered, return your attention to your breathing. In time, your mind will wander again. Always continue to come back to your breath. Repeat this process until your session is complete.

Meet your kissing partner's eyes and give them a little smile to show that you're ready for some action. You can also gently lean your forehead against your kissing partner's, put your hand on their face, touch their leg, or even give them a quick peck on the lips before you really start kissing. This helps start a connection and gets your partner more ready to kiss you; if you swoop in without any warning, the kissing session may be unexpected -- and not in a good way. Your eye contact doesn't have to be super intense, especially if you're just starting out with this person. Just a few seconds of eye contact should get the message across. This is very important. The best way to prevent head-butting, elbowing, and clanking teeth is to do everything slowly, especially in the beginning and when you're changing positions. As time progresses, you can introduce more passionate kissing techniques, but they can only be sustained for so long. Always return to a slow, comfortable pace. Start with a kiss on the lips, then, if you want to French kiss, slowly move your tongue into your partner's mouth as they do the same.  Once your tongues are in each other's mouths, you can move them slowly in a circular motion, move them on top of each other, or do whatever feels good without moving too fast or getting sloppy. Remember that if you're making out for the first time, you have to be extra cautious before you begin. The first time is about figuring out the person's comfort level, boundaries, and favorite maneuvers. This doesn't mean that you should frantically paw your kissing partner every chance you get. However, you'll be more comfortable kissing if you don't keep your hands neatly planted on your lap. Once you're comfortable, and especially if you're sitting down, try to explore your kissing partner's body -- as long as you're both okay with it. Basically, just keep your hands moving from time to time, so you don't get stuck in the same old boring position. Try cupping their face, touching their waist, or holding...
