If you’re lucky enough to drop something into a toilet in your own home, be prepared and have some rubber gloves on hand. Pulling these on before you stick your hand into germ-filled toilet water will make the task a lot more bearable. If you’re out somewhere and don’t have the benefit of gloves, you’ll have to decide whether it’s worth taking the plunge.  Don’t flush anything that’s too big to fit through the pipes of the toilet. Then you’ll just have an additional mess to deal with.  Assuming gloves are not an option, think on your feet and use some other object, such as a wad of paper towels or a plastic bag turned inside out, to protect your hand from the worst of the mess while you go after the dropped item. If you just can’t stand the notion of getting your hands dirty, certain objects, like jewelry or house keys, may be retrievable using a coat hanger that’s been bent into a hook. Whether you’re wearing protective gloves or not, try to minimize the amount of time your hand spends in the toilet. In one quick motion, reach into the bowl, grab the item and pull it out, letting excess water drip into the bowl. Toilets are breeding grounds for all sorts of bacteria and viruses, so the less you’re able to expose yourself, the better. Take a firm grip on the object so that you don’t drop it. If it slides further down the drain opening, you might never get it back. Assuming the thing you dropped wasn’t your smartphone or the remote control, you’ll want to rinse off as much of the water from the toilet as you can. Turn the sink on as hot as it will go. If soap is available, lather the item up to start superficially cleaning it right away. Run the item under the hot water, turning it over so that the stream bathes every part of it.  Electronics and objects that are easily damaged by water should be dealt with by other means. A strong antibacterial soap and hot water may be all you need to disinfect items that have fallen into a clean toilet, but you may still feel better employing other methods. Before...

If you’re meeting someone from an extended social circle, you probably won’t have to share the news yourself. You date will likely already know about your spouse's death. If you are dating online, you may have this information in your profile or share it early on in a message to prepare the person before a face-to-face meeting. Even after you share this information, trust your instincts to decide what else to share, such as details about your spouse’s death or other information from your previous life. In some ways, confiding could build a stronger bond between you and a new person. However, talking too much about the past can cause a date to feel left out. Chances are, it’s been quite some time since you’ve been on a first date. Show respect and consideration for your appearance by showing up properly groomed and in well-fitting clothes. Ask a close friend to come with you shopping and select a few items that can help you feel most confident on your date. You don’t have to undergo a major makeover to date, but it’s nice to look and feel your best. Working out and grooming can help you feel better. Plus, exercising and staying active lifts your mood and promotes a positive outlook. Start the date off with a smile and a positive attitude. If you are feeling at all hesitant about the dating process or uncomfortable with the person, cancel the date and give yourself more time. Both of you deserve to be with someone who is fully present and enthusiastic about dating. Even when it’s with the right person, dating can be a roller-coaster of shaky beginnings and false starts. Accept that a successful relationship may not be the outcome of your first month of dating, or even your first year. Exercise a positive outlook by going on each date with the mindset that even if you two don’t make a connection, you will have met someone new and interesting. Applaud yourself for getting back out there, and leave your expectations at the door.

If you’re nervous about waxing off your sideburns yourself, you may want to go to a salon or spa to have a professional waxer handle the treatment. You want to make sure to the salon you choose is clean and uses licensed cosmetologists as waxers.  Ask friend and family for recommendations when you’re looking for a waxing salon. It’s the best way to ensure that a salon is professional and reliable. If you don’t know anyone who gets waxed professionally, look on Yelp to see reviews of salons and spas in your area to help you make your decision. This procedure uses heat to kill the hair follicle during the first stage of growth. The resulting hair loss is permanent, but because your hair is not all in this first stage of growth at the same time, it may require multiple laser treatments to get rid of your sideburns. In most cases, it takes between 2 and 8 treatments to permanently remove the hair.  This procedure only works on people with contrasting hair and skin colors, which means a relatively light-skinned person with dark hair. The follicle won't absorb the heat from the laser if you have dark skin or fair hair.  Make sure to do extensive research before choosing a facility for laser hair removal treatment. A laser can cause permanent damage if used incorrectly, so choose a dermatologist or plastic surgeon to perform the procedure, as they have the most training.  If a nurse or aesthetician is performing the procedure, make sure a doctor is on-site, overseeing their work. Ask how many machines are on the premises. The more options available, the more likely you will get the most efficient treatment. With electrolysis, a tiny probe is used to kill the hair follicle with a current of electricity. The hair is then tweezed and usually does not grow back. As with lasering, the hair must be at a certain stage of growth for this to work, so multiple visits are necessary. In some cases, it may take up to 20 treatments.  Electrolysis will work on any hair color or skin color. It is very important to find an...

If you’re new to drinking bourbon, you may wish to start with a variety that has a high wheat content. The wheat imparts a softer, gentler flavor to the bourbon, which can make it more palatable than some other bourbons to someone who isn’t used to whiskey.  Some popular wheated bourbons include Maker’s Mark, Old Fitzgerald, and Pappy Van Winkel. These bourbons tend to have notes of caramel, vanilla, and bread. Traditional bourbons have a relatively high corn content (around 70%) and are made with rye instead of wheat. The corn lends sweetness to the whiskey, while the rye gives it a hint of spice.  Popular traditional bourbons include Knob Creek, Jim Beam, and Wild Turkey. If you really like the sweetness of the corn, try a bourbon with a higher corn content, such as Old Charter (80% corn) or Baby Bourbon from Tuthilltown Spirits (100% corn). Bourbons with a high rye content have bold, spicy flavors. If you enjoy bolder whiskeys, look for a bourbon made with more than 10% rye, such as Old Grand-Dad, Four Roses, or Bulleit.  Four Roses Single Barrel has a rye content of 35%, making it the most rye-heavy bourbon on the market.  If you like the spiciness of rye but also enjoy whiskey with a fruity flavor, Bulleit is a good choice. If you’re feeling adventurous, try a variety of single-barrel bourbons. As the name suggests, these bourbons are bottled from the products of a single barrel instead of a blend of different barrels. The flavors of these whiskeys are affected by factors such as how long they were aged, the wood from which the barrel was made, and conditions in the warehouse where they were stored.  A few popular single barrel options include Elijah Craig 18-Year-Old, Wild Turkey Kentucky Spirit, and Eagle Rare. Flavors range from woody and smoky to smooth and spicy-sweet. While these bourbons can be quite pricey, “single-barrel” does not always equate to prohibitively expensive. You can get a bottle of Eagle Rare 10 Year Old for around $20 USD.

If you’re not a sign that naturally gets along well with Aries, explain these differences to your partner when conflict arises. That way, you can shift the focus to your respective personalities and emotional requirements and keep situations from growing heated. Discuss what you have in common and where you differ early on, so that you have an idea of what to expect from one another in the future.  Fire signs like Aries (which also includes Leo and Sagittarius) tend to form the strongest bonds with air signs (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius) and other fire signs, so if you're a water (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces) or earth sign (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn), you may discover that your Aries interest possesses characteristics that clash with your own. When talking about your differences, frame the conversation in such a way that each of you are presenting constructive elements of your personality that the other might lack and find comforting in a relationship. If you’re not a fire sign yourself, you may find it difficult or uncomfortable to open up about what you need from a relationship. You won’t have to worry about this with an Aries. They are by nature frank, sincere people, and will appreciate your directness. Since it can be a challenge to always know what your partner needs, it’s best when you can establish grounds for talking about these matters openly and avoid a lot of frustrating guesswork.  Be extremely clear about what it is you need to feel comfortable in the relationship. It may be that the two of you will just be too different to meet all of each other’s needs, but if you make these needs known in unambiguous terms, an Aries’ action-driven character should be motivated to find ways of caring for them. Aries love to make plans and embark on new projects, but aren’t always the best at following through with them. If you’re a planner, use that organization to encourage and concentrate your Aries partner’s innate penchant for getting the ball rolling. Whether you’re thinking about moving in together or just...

If you’re not allowed to bring electronic devices on your field trip, you can pass the time with road trip games that don’t require any accessories to play. Depending on the game, you’ll probably need at least one other person to play. However, you’ll have more fun if you get as many people involved as possible. In some cases, you may choose to play a game that the entire bus can participate in.  If you want to keep it simple, play “20 Questions.” One person thinks of an object or person, and the other players ask questions, all the way up to 20, to try to figure out the answer. “Telephone” is a fun game for the entire bus. One person starts by whispering a sentence or two to another person, who then tries to repeat it verbatim to a third person -- and so on. The final person says the phrase out loud, so everyone can hear how close it is to what the original person said. When you’re driving a highway, you can play the “Restaurant/Gas Station/Hotel” game. All the players choose a specific restaurant, gas station, or hotel, such as McDonald’s or Burger King, and you earn a point every time you see the place you’ve chosen or its logo on a road sign. The person with the most points at the end of the allotted time wins. Another fun way to pass the time and involve the entire bus is to sing some bus songs. You can go around the bus and have everyone start a song to get a good variety of music. In some cases, it can be fun to choose a theme, such as songs about driving, Disney songs, or songs with "trip" in the title.  It's usually best to use current pop songs that most people would know, so no one feels left out. If you have a school song, you might end or start the sing along with that. On a short bus ride, you may not necessarily need a book or electronic device to entertain you. Instead, you can pass the time talking to your friends and catching up on what’s going on with them. If you’re not sitting near your friends and are sharing a seat with someone who you don’t know very well, take the opportunity to get...

If you’re not already connected on social media, make the first move and send him a friend request or hit “follow.” Most likely, he’ll follow you back automatically. This will ensure that he sees your posts. Plus, it makes it easier for him to contact you by commenting on your post or sending you a direct message. Don’t follow all of his accounts at once. Start with the platform you use most, then space out the others over a few days. This makes it look like you’re just discovering his other pages. Include the highlights of your day so that he can see what an awesome catch you are. Post a mix of photos, updates, and events that you’re attending. This will show him that you’re involved in a lot of fun stuff, which may make him interested. For instance, post a pic with your friends, use a photo of you playing a sport, include a photo of your cat, or post a progress photo of a painting you’re working on. Selfies can make you feel great about yourself, so don’t feel bad about taking them. However, posting too many selfies can make you seem narcissistic or bored. Instead, make sure most of your photos are showing you doing something. This will draw his eye to you instead of making him keep scrolling. If you’re really feeling your look, try taking a selfie from further away so people see what’s going on around you. This tells people you’re doing something fun while also showing off your look. It’s okay to sometimes post about negative events in your life when you need support or advice. However, posting long rants and frequent complaints is a turn off for a lot of people. You want your guy to see you as mostly positive and someone who enjoys life. For instance, it’s okay to post something like, “I had a hard day today, but I’m grateful for my friends,” or “Really needing support right now because I lost my dog today.” However, avoid rants about people you hate or polarizing issues, as well as comments like, “Everything always goes wrong,” or “People really suck.”

If you’re not already dating someone, try to strike up conversations with new people. Chat with the person behind you in line at the grocery store, say hello to someone at a coffee shop, or have lunch with someone new at school or work.  Finding love sometimes takes a little work. Don’t just wait and assume you’ll stumble into your perfect soul mate. Get out there, meet people, and gain a better understanding of what you’re looking for in a partner. Even if you’re not interested in dating a person, chatting with them can help you become more comfortable in social situations. A new social hobby can expose you to new people and push you out of your comfort zone. Try signing up for an activity related to your interests. That way, you’ll already have something in common with the people you meet. For example, if you're into reading, join a book club. You could take cooking, yoga, or rock climbing classes, or join a kickball or softball club. If you’re a student, join a club at school. If you have a dog, bring your pup to the dog park and meet other dog lovers. In your profile, describe yourself with concise, but vivid language. Mention a few interests, but don’t go on and on about yourself. As for pictures, be sure they’re clear, make eye contact with the camera, and show off your winning smile.  Go slowly and trust your instincts when you meet people online. Chat via the dating app or website, then consider exchanging phone numbers when you’re comfortable. Chat on the phone before meeting in person and, when you meet, do so in a public place.  Keep in mind online dating is for adults. If you’re under 18, stick to meeting people at school, through friends, or through extracurricular activities. When you go out and meet new people, don’t just assume things will just click when you find your perfect soul mate. Intuition plays a part, but you should still have a mental list of specific characteristics you need in a significant other.  For instance, maybe responsibility, honesty, and sense of humor are at the top of...

If you’re not already friends with her, you’ll first need to start by establishing a friend connection. Don’t include a message just yet, and wait for her to follow-up after you send the request.  When she responds, play up the fact that you have mutual friends or that you attend the same school or live in the same town. Use any of these as the reason why you’d like to get to know her better. If she asks why you friended her, be honest! Even it is just because you liked her profile photos, let her know and ask if you can chat online and get to know her better. Chances are she’ll be flattered and interested in learning more about you, too. Keep it simple and safe. Don’t pressure her for a phone number or come across too pushy. You’re still in the ice breaking phase and you don’t want to scare her away by seeming to aggressive or forward. It’s best to initiate contact via private message, so that she doesn’t feel too publicly pressured.  Put some thought into your first message; have a good icebreaker comment rather than just writing “hi” out of the blue. For example, If there an event or something just happened at school, ask her what she though about it; or, if her favorite show just aired, ask her if she watched it and use that to initiate a conversation. Communicating through messages is a great way to test out your potential compatibility and to get her to like you before you meet face to face.  Try to offer something new with every message to keep the conversation going. Wait a bit between answers so you don’t look desperate by always answering immediately. Space out your reply to once a day in order to build anticipation. Make it about her. Don’t let the conversation get to one sided, where you just end up talking about yourself. Make sure that she feels like you’re into learning more about her. After you exchange messages for a while, ask if you can chat through the Facebook instant messenger. This way to can have more of an immediate, “real life” type of conversation.

If you’re not buying an all-in-one or portable computer, you’ll need a separate monitor. These days, monitors are powered by cathode ray tubes (CRTs), liquid crystal displays (LCDs), and light-emitting diodes (LEDs).  CRT monitors are the old-school kind powered by the same technology as traditional television sets. They’re very inexpensive at first but are very expensive to repair. They’re also very bulky and have fallen out of favor with most users. LCD monitors don’t flicker as much as CRTs, which is a plus if you suffer from headaches. They’re also lightweight and take up less space than CRTs. On the other hand, they’re very expensive, and their resolution can also get distorted if you connect projector cables. LED monitors are the most eco-friendly option because they require the least amount of power. Like LCDs, they’re lightweight. However, their image resolution is better than LCDs. Their only disadvantage is their high price tag. Go with a larger display if you work with graphics or spend several hours in front of the screen. Choose a smaller size if you’re frequently away from the computer and work primarily with text. The larger the monitor or screen, the more information you can view and the higher the resolution you can view it in. Newer laptop screens feature glossy coatings that may make it hard to read them outdoors or under strong indoor light without adjusting the screen brightness. If you’re buying a desktop computer, you’ll definitely need a mouse. Some mice are cordless, using a USB stick to connect to the computer. Others connect to the CPU or monitor with a cable. Mice are mainly available in optical form. An optical mouse replaces the old track ball with a red light on the bottom and is more likely to navigate smoothly over the years. Dedicated graphics and sound cards generally provide better video and audio capabilities for desktop computers. Most feature their own memory chips, with more memory meaning greater performances. If you choose high-quality graphics and sound cards, be...

If you’re not the only one living in your house, it’s very important that you let your housemates in on your plans. Ideally, inform them of wanting to put your home up on Airbnb. Barring that, at least tell them ahead of time that due to signing up at Airbnb, you are now expecting guests. This way, when your guests arrive, your family or friends who live with you won’t be caught unprepared or, worse, unwelcoming. A house being a reflection of its owner, keeping it spic and span will leave a great first impression. Make sure that furniture is free of dust, carpets and floors are vacuumed, broken fixtures are fixed, and that anything that looks like trash is junked. Take care to move any personal items that you’d really prefer not to be touched or used by your guests to your (restricted) personal area or to a secure location, such as a locked closet or a safe.

If you’re noticing a lot of blackheads, which occur when oils and grime get trapped in your pores, start by cleaning your skin. Gently wash your face with your normal cleanser and lukewarm water to get rid of dirt down in your pores.  Follow your face wash with a toner to help rebalance the pH of your skin. Avoid double-washing your face since this removes too much of the natural oil from your face and can cause your skin to become too dry. 2-3 times a week to remove dirt and dead skin.

These peels involve using strong chemicals to dissolve oils, dirt, and cells on the top layer of your skin, leaving your skin unclogged and looking refreshed.

If you’re outgoing and friendly, you might feel inclined to tell everyone your life story. However, mysterious people aren’t open books. Try to minimize the amount of things you disclose about yourself, and when you’re asked personal questions, answer them, but just with a few vague words. For example, if someone asks you about a recent breakup you went through, you might say something like, “It just didn’t work out.” This is an acceptable response, but doesn’t reveal anything private about you. This goes hand in hand with speaking minimally. Instead of saying every little thing that pops into your head, think about why you want to say what you’re thinking and only verbalize it when you need to. This will give you an air of mystery. Those who are mysterious often observe others more than they steal the spotlight. Focus on taking in your surroundings, listening to what others say, and fading into the background a bit. Not only will this make you more mysterious, but it’ll also make you a better conversationalist. When you’re really excited or upset about something, think twice before you post it all over social media. To be mysterious, you have to limit how much you disclose about yourself in person and also online. Keep your activity on social media sites like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Snapchat low key. For example, “like” others’ posts on Facebook from time to time and post an occasional photo with a brief caption.

If you’re physically active during the day, you might want to bring a few essential backup items you can change into. That way you won't have to deal with that icky feeling that comes late in the day when you've been wearing the same thing since 8 am. You could even keep a tote bag in your car with a few items so you’ll never be without them when you leave home. Consider bringing along the following:  A change of socks A clean undershirt A pair of clean underwear Wind, rain, and general rushing around can mess up your hair and leave it limp by midday. Bring a comb or brush with you so you’ll always be able to fix your hair if you need to. You may also want to bring a small bottle of hair spray or gel to help it stay neatly in place.  If your hair tends to look a little greasy by mid-day, try dry shampoo. You just sprinkle a little on the spots that look greasy, let the powder sit for a few minutes, then brush it out. Another trick is to put your hair up into a bun or ponytail to instantly give yourself a fresh new style for the remainder of the day. This might be helpful if you’re in a humid climate and don’t have time for a second shower. Be sure to use unscented wipes, since the scented kind has a strong smell. Wipe where necessary, then reapply deodorant and you’re good to go. If you tend to feel less than fresh after lunch, start bringing along a travel toothbrush and toothpaste so you can quickly clean your mouth and feel better right away. A travel-sized bottle of mouthwash is also handy to bring. And when you don't have these items handy, you can always pop a breath mint or a piece of peppermint gum. There’s nothing worse than having your period start in the middle of the day when you don’t have access to a drugstore. Think ahead and pack everything you need to keep yourself fresh during your period. Have enough tampons or pads so that you can change them every few hours. Avoid using douches or perfume sprays to keep yourself fresh. The chemicals in these products can actually lead to yeast infections,...

If you’re planning on changing your dog’s diet from wet food to primarily dry food, they will adapt faster if you mix the 2 kinds together rather than abruptly switching to only dry food. Check with your vet first to make sure your dog is ready, and then for the first week, mix 1/2 wet food with 1/2 dry food. For the second week, mix 1/4 wet food with 3/4 dry food. On the third week, offer your dog just dry food.  The gradual change from dry to wet will be less noticeable to your dog. The dry food will also help to dislodge any wet food bits that get stuck in their teeth.

If you’re planning on staying nocturnal for a while, it’s important to stick with a steady schedule. Go to bed at the same time of day and rise at the same time, too. If you don’t, your sleep schedule will end up all over the place, and that can wreak havoc on your health.  After you’ve gradually gotten accustomed to your schedule, stick with it the same way you would a regular schedule. Set your alarm and try to go to bed on time. When you’re ready to go back to a normal day/night schedule, do it gradually. Staying inside during the day means you won’t be exposed to the sun’s healthy rays. Sure, too much sun is a bad thing, but too little sun is actually worse. When you don’t get exposed to any sun, your body doesn’t produce vitamin D, which is essential to healthy bone growth and other natural functions.  Try to arrange your schedule so that you get at least a little sun exposure during the daylight. You may want to get a sun lamp to stimulate vitamin D production if you’re getting very little sun. When you adopt a nocturnal schedule, you’re going against your body’s natural rhythms. You’re always going to be a little sleepier and less sharp than you’d be if you had a normal day/night schedule. For this reason, it’s important to be careful operating machinery, including a car, while you’re still getting used to being awake all night. Stay as alert as possible, especially while you’re at work.

If you’re playing with a child, it’s easier to have them choose a number between 1 and 10.  Example 1: 8. Example 2: 43. Example 1: 8 x 2 = 16 + 10 = 26. Example 2: 43 x 2 = 86 + 10 = 96. Example 1: 26 / 2 = 14. Example 2: 96 / 2 = 48. Unless incorrect math has been performed, the answer will always be “5.”  Example 1: 14 – 9 = 5. Example 2: 48 – 43 = 5. Respond with, "Is your secret number 5?" Begin by asking someone to think about the last 2 digits of the year they were born. It should be someone you don’t know since the trick depends on you not knowing their birthday. Have them add that number to the age they’ll be at the end of the year. They can write it down on a piece of paper if that helps them do the math more easily. Make sure that they don’t let you see it.  Example 1: Born in 1981. So 81 + 35 (age) = 116. Example 2: Born in 1999. So 99 + 17 (age) = 116. ” This will always be the case! The only exceptions are for people born in or after the year 2000. If you know or suspect that the person was born in or after the year 2000, the answer will always be “16” rather than “116.”  Example: The birth year is 2003, so the last 2 digits of the year are 03. If the person adds the age they’ll be at the end of the year to that number, it will always be 16. In this case, a person born in 2003 is 13 years old. 03 + 13 = 16. Note that the invariable answer depends on the current year. In the year 2017, the answer will always be 117 (17 if born in or after 2000). In 2018 the answer will always be 118 (or 18), and so on.

If you’re pregnant and take a multivitamin or folic-acid tablet, you should still work folate-rich foods into your diet. If you’re not pregnant (or if you’re male), this obviously isn’t a concern. It’s recommended that men and women over 13 years of age consume 400 mcg of folic acid daily, though. For most people, this can easily be achieved through dietary means. Foods including spinach, kale, collard greens, and mustard greens are among the highest in natural folate. 1 cup (237 grams) of spinach alone contains 263 mcg of folate. The same portion of collard greens or mustard greens contains about 170 mcg of folate. Although they’re not leafy, other dark green vegetables are typically high in folate as well. These include foods like asparagus, avocado, broccoli, okra, and Brussels sprouts.  1 cup (237 grams) of cooked okra contains 206 mcg of folate. The same size serving of avocado contains about 100 mcg of folate. Citrus is high in natural folate. Fruits like lemon, lime, and grapefruit are good options for dietary folate, although oranges contain the highest amount. A single orange often contains as much as 50 mcg of folate. A grapefruit, although larger, only contains 40 mcg. Breads, cereals, flours, white rice, and pasta are among the food items commonly enriched with added folic acid. Folic acid is typically only added to foods that have refined and processed grains, and not to foods which contain whole grains.  When you’re out shopping, look closely at the informational nutrition label on a food item. If it says “enriched,” this means that folic acid has been added. The label should also specify how much folic acid is contained in a serving. The FDA has required that these foods be fortified with folic acid since 1998 in the United States.

If you’re pregnant—or trying to get pregnant—talk to your doctor about folic acid. It’s important that you do this as early in the pregnancy as possible, preferably even before you’ve actually conceived. Ideally, you should take folic acid for a full month prior to conception and during the first trimester that you’re pregnant. If the pregnancy is unplanned and you find out 2 or 3 months in, talk to your doctor and start taking folic acid as soon as possible. Folic acid is crucial to the development of fetuses because it helps prevent neural tube defects (NTDs). NTD's can result in birth defects in the brain or spinal cord, such as anencephaly and spina bifida, respectively. If anyone in your family has an NTD, your doctor may recommend that you take a higher dosage of folic acid. This will help prevent the NTD from being passed to your child.  Also tell your doctor if you have kidney disease, are an alcoholic, or have any type of anemia. If you have any of these conditions, your doctor will need to adjust your dosage of folic acid.  If your doctor suggests that you take a higher dosage of folic acid due to a health condition, follow the dosage directions given by your doctor. This is the recommended daily dosage for pregnant women. Some organizations, such as the U.S. National Institutes of Health, suggest that pregnant women take 600 mcg of folic acid each day. Although pregnant women can safely take up to 1,000 mcg of folic acid daily, it’s best to work with your doctor to decide on a specific dosage. If you take a prenatal vitamin supplement, it likely contains all the folic acid you’ll need. Many prenatal vitamins contain 800–1,000 mcg of folic acid. Don’t stop taking folic acid as soon as you’ve delivered your baby. Taking folic acid while breastfeeding will ensure that the infant continues to receive the health benefits from the vitamin. Check with your doctor to make sure that you should continue taking folic acid post-delivery. Generally, breastfeeding women should take 500 mcg of folic acid daily....

If you’re prone to tearing up all the time, do some preemptive damage control by telling your boss, coworkers, family, and friends. Emphasize that it’s not a big deal, and tell them about the best way to react if it happens. For example, you could say, “I tend to cry easily, so don’t worry if I get upset – that’s normal for me. I try to keep it under control, but if it happens, I just need a few minutes to calm down.” After you’ve calmed down, ask the person who yelled at you if they can talk to you privately. Address the problem and apologize if you did something wrong. Then tell them how their yelling made you feel, and politely ask them to talk to you more calmly in the future. Say something like, “I get pretty flustered when people shout at me, so it was hard for me to come up with a good solution to our problem earlier. Next time we run into an issue like this, can we talk about it when we’re both calm?” Ask yourself what you feel when someone yells at you. If you can identify where your tears are coming from, you might be able to figure out some alternate coping strategies.  For instance, if you get overwhelmed by sheer adrenaline, you could squeeze a stress ball to release tension instead. If being yelled at makes you feel small and inferior, you could try remembering that the other person is a human who makes mistakes too, and they might not even be in the right for yelling at you. Consider if you cried often as a child. It may be a trait you've carried into adulthood. Think about what you can do or say next time someone gets angry at you. Visualize yourself staying calm and collected as you use your new strategies.  For example, if your boss tends to yell a lot, imagine saying something like, “I’m sorry you’re not happy with this, and I’ll work on finding a solution. In the meantime, though, I find it hard to focus on what you’re saying when you yell. Can we discuss this more calmly later?” If this does not work, and your boss repeatedly yells, you might consider consulting the HR department at work....

If you’re publishing your review, check the journal’s format and style guidelines first. Familiarizing yourself with the publication’s standards will give you an idea of how to evaluate the article and structure your review.  Familiarizing yourself with format and style guidelines is especially important if you haven’t published with that journal in the past. For example, a journal might require you to recommend an article for publication, meet a certain word count, or provide revisions that the authors should make. If you’re reviewing a journal article for a school assignment, familiarize yourself the guidelines your instructor provided. First, look through the journal article and try to trace its logic. Read the title, abstract, and headings to get a feel for how the article is organized. In this initial, quick skim, identify the question or problem that the article addresses. After a quick skim, read the article from beginning to end to develop an overall impression. At this stage, identify the article’s thesis, or main argument, and highlight or underline where its stated in the introduction and conclusion. After reading it in full, scrutinize the article section by section. You can print out a copy and write notes and comments in the margins. If you prefer working with a digital copy, write your notes and comments in a word document.  While giving the article a closer read, gauge whether and how well the article resolves its central problem. Ask yourself, “Is this investigation important, and does it uniquely contribute to its field?” At this stage, note any terminological inconsistencies, organizational problems, typos, and formatting issues.

If you’re really in love, then you shouldn't be able to picture your future without them. Whether at night, or in the morning, or with your friends, the fact that you can't stop means you're in love, and may have found "the one". Whether thinking of moving to a new city, having children, spending a year abroad, or reaching any of your future goals, you should be thinking of doing these things with your significant other by your side. If you can’t imagine going through life without your significant other — not just next summer, or next year, or whenever— then you may be truly in love. Here are some other signs that you’re truly in love:  If you can't think about starting a new chapter of your life, whether it's a new job or a move to a new place, without your loved one at your side. If you've thought about having children but can't imagine having kids with anyone other than your loved one. If you can't imagine growing old without your loved one by your side. To be in love, you don’t have to be obsessive about your loved one; in fact, quite the opposite is true. If you have a healthy loving relationship, then you should be able to spend time apart from your loved one without obsessing over what they're doing every five seconds. However, if you can go a whole weekend, or a whole month, without your loved one once crossing your mind, then you may like them a lot, but you may not necessarily have reached the love stage yet. Here are some other signs that you’re really in love:  If you read a book or see a movie without your loved one, you may wonder what they would think of it. If you're trying on clothes without your special someone, you may think about how they would like your new look. If you call or text your loved one just because you want to say hi or hear their voice, then you may be falling in love. If you’re really in love, then you won’t just be thinking of your loved one as a perfect object that should be worshipped, but as a living, breathing human being with an interesting perspective and many unique...

Подумайте, можете ли вы представить свое будущее без любимого человека. Посмотрите, можете ли вы провести хотя бы несколько часов, не думая о вашем любимом человеке. Попробуйте понять, действительно ли вы цените мнение вашего любимого человека. Задумайтесь, не хотите ли вы стать лучше ради любимого человека. Остановитесь на секунду и подумайте — не чувствуете ли вы себя в последнее время, так сказать, лучшей версией себя? Подумайте, замечаете ли вы недостатки у вашего любимого человека.


If you’re really in love, then you shouldn't hold back when you talk to your loved one. This doesn't mean that you should tell them every little thing that’s bothering you or nag them because you feel like you’re being honest, but it does mean that you should be comfortable enough in your relationship to be able to bring up something that’s bothering you, or sharing your true feelings, without feeling like it’s not worth it because your loved one will be bored, angry, or just won’t care.  If you can tell your partner exactly how you feel about something without worrying that you sound immature or stupid, then you may be falling in love. If you're okay with cracking a joke, no matter how corny it may be, then you and your loved one are on the same page. If you’re really in love, then you and your loved one don’t have to have deep discussions about the meaning of life or about the status of your relationship all the time. A lot of love lies in the little things, and most of your conversation won’t be earth-shattering or celestial, and that’s perfectly okay.  If you’re really in love, then you should be happy dissecting the latest episode of Breaking Bad with your loved one, or making small talk during a baseball game, and feeling that it’s enough. If you've gotten off the phone with your loved one after laughing the whole time and wondering, "What did we just talk about?" then you may be in love. If you’re truly in love, then you should be comfortable enough to let your loved one see the real you, even if that means showing your less-than-flattering side. If everything you say is devised to make your significant other like you or want to be with you even more, then you’re not comfortable with them enough to be really in love.  If you’re willing to open up and talk about your past mistakes or grievances, then you’re more likely to be in love. You don't have to tell the person you love every last thing that has caused you pain, but you should be able to feel better after mentioning it. If you're in love, you'll...

If you’re really serious about rebuilding your friendship, it all starts with you releasing your negative feelings about the situation and truly forgiving your friend. Urge your friend to do the same. Leave the past behind and look to the future. After you've said your apologies, you'll need to back them up with actions. Talk to your friend about the issues that caused your friendship to become broken, as well as what needs to change for your friendship to heal. Identify what each of you need to do to make this successful. If you and your best friend had a major falling out, hanging out every day after school like you used to do probably isn’t the healthiest way to rebuild things. Don’t revert back to any of your old habits. Start slowly with occasional hang outs and phone calls. This will give you both time to heal as you rebuild your friendship together. It will likely take a lot of time for you to rebuild trust. Give the friendship time to grow together. Apologies are meaningless if you don't correct the behavior you apologized for. Make the changes needed to keep your friendship on track. Pay attention to the way you speak and interact with each other. If nothing changes between you and things still feel negative, you may want to reevaluate the friendship.

If you’re saying 'thank you' in person, remember to smile and make eye contact with the person whom you’re thanking.  These small gestures add a massive amount of sincerity to the 'thank you.' Showing your gratitude to someone else is awesome.  Gushing over them and falling all over yourself to say 'thank you' is overdoing it, and could end up embarrassing the person you’re trying to thank.  Keep your gratitude simple, to the point and pleasant. You should be thanking someone because you honestly and sincerely are grateful for something they did.  You shouldn’t be thanking someone because you were told to do it, or because you felt it was somehow required.  Insincere gratitude is obvious and unappreciated. This is especially important for those who work in a retail environment where they may feel obligated to thank customers on a regular basis.  If you aren’t actually sincere about the thanks, the customer can tell.  Even if it’s your job to thank a customer, you can still make it sincere. There are certain situations that require more than just an in-person ‘thank you,’ such as being treated to dinner, being giving a present, etc.  When these situations occur, a written ‘thank you’ is vital.  Whomever treated you to this extra-special kindness deserves the same in return, and writing a 'thank you' note or card is the best way to show how much you really do appreciate what they did.  If you decide to use a card, blank ones work best in these situations.  Blank cards allow you to write a brief, but custom, note inside. Whatever form your ‘thank you’ note takes, it should specifically mention the reason you’re saying ‘thank you.’ While emails can obviously be personalized, avoid sending an email in these situations.  Emails just aren’t as sincere and well-meaning as an actual note or card. Do not ask someone else to send someone a ‘thank you’ on your behalf, do it yourself.  It isn’t a sincere ‘thank you’ if it isn’t coming from you directly. If you’re a really busy person who doesn’t have a lot of extra time,...

If you’re seasoned in making sewing patterns, you can make your own. Use your measurements to make your pattern, adding 1.5” for seam allowance. If you’ve never made your own pattern, a wedding dress is a very difficult pattern to begin with. Once you have your fabric and style picked out, you can go to fabric stores and look through pattern books or you can order online. Each will be rated by level of difficulty.  Make sure that a key/glossary, layout, and step-by-step instructions are included. When you order your pattern, it is easy to combine multiple sizes to get the pattern as close to your measurements as possible. Patterns can be printed on a variety of materials. For example, it can be printed on large pieces of tissue paper, or stiffer white paper. The stiffer paper is better if you’ll be using it a lot. If you decide on tissue paper, make an extra pattern, just in case something happens to the original.

If you’re seeing bees inside the house (or if you’ve spotted, say, carpenter bees burrowing into wooden portions of your house), consider this to be a situation where it’s appropriate to get rid of them. Any damage they may cause to the structure will be minimal in the beginning, but expect the risk and extent of damage to increase over time if left untreated.  Carpenter bees will continue to expand their nests throughout wooden structures if left alone. Honeybees create honeycombs. These can become quite heavy and possibly damage surrounding areas. The honey may also attract other animals. Killing a single bee is relatively easy, but expect to deal with a whole nest of them to be a much more involved and lengthy process. Keep in mind that if it isn’t done correctly and thoroughly, you’ll most likely end up with a new batch of bees appearing shortly. Also remember:  Bees are usually happy to ignore you right up until you start messing with their nest. And though a single bee sting is pretty bearable, you may be faced with dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of the little guys when you attack them at the source.  Depending on the type of bee you have, the method for removing them may vary. Professionals may use smoke, pesticides, or other means of extraction for the bees themselves, plus using the second hive to extract honey from the left-behind nest. Removal of the nest itself may also require carpentry work to gain access and repair damage to structures. First, determine if the bees’ nest is technically on public property instead of your own. If so, contact your local government and report it so they can deal with it. If not, call them anyway, since they may offer free services to have the nest removed, depending on your area.  What free services (if any) are available will depend on your area. They may include extraction of both bees and nests or only the bees themselves. They may or may not include repairs to any structural damage. Free services are more likely to be available if the nest is in a natural...

If you’re starting to get panicked about the amount of studying you have to do, know that it will feel much less stressful if you can just get started. Commit to working on a super-simple, quick task first just to get things going. For instance, you could begin by spending 5 minutes skimming your vocab list. Or try the Pomodoro Technique. This involves setting a 25-minute timer for each task. The time will go by quickly, and you’ll end up with a feeling of accomplishment.  After about 5 minutes, the pain centers of your brain that sound an alarm when you’re unwilling to get started will quiet down. With the Pomodoro Technique, each 25-minute block is called a Pomodoro, and you can set another 5-minute timer for a quick break in between Pomodoros. If 25 minutes seems too short, feel free to keep working past the timer; the point is to get you started. This can be helpful when your teacher doesn’t share a study guide or if the existing guide doesn’t really work for your learning style. Design a study guide that makes the most sense to you. Try creating flash cards, make a bulleted list of each topic you need to know, or list out all of the questions you think might appear on your exam. Refer to your textbook for review questions or turn each section heading into a question.  If the textbook’s section heading reads, “Anthropomorphic Themes in Fairy Tales,” your study question could be, “Can I describe the use of anthropomorphic themes in fairy tales?” Look online for study guide templates and examples as a starting point. If you’re a visual learner, try creating a mind map or Venn diagram to organize the topics you need to study. Draw out a map and use colors, arrows, and icons to help you visualize the concepts presented in your textbook. Or color-coordinate your notes to help you associate topics and ideas. Rather than skimming vocab words from a PDF or textbook, rewriting the words and definitions in your own handwriting with a fun-colored pen might help you retain the information better. Mnemonic devices are...

If you’re struggling to wake up in the morning, immediately turn on the lights. Flip on the overhead light or any other bright light you have. Bright lights help make you alert and more awake. Make sure the lights are on as you are getting dressed or eating breakfast. You can try natural light by opening your blinds to let the sunshine in or eat breakfast outside. Working out can wake you right up. Even a relatively light workout, such as stretching along with some weights or a short time on the elliptical or stationary bicycle, can wake you up. You may consider going for a walk or taking your dog out for a walk, or going for a quick run. You can also go to a class at the gym, go for a swim, do yoga or Tai Chi, or load up your favorite music and dance. A morning shower can help you wake up, but it needs to be a specific kind of shower. Take a hot shower, ending with a cool rinse. You should turn the temperature as cold as you can and stand under the spray for 30 seconds. Then turn the spray as hot as you can stand for 30 seconds, then turn the water as cold as you can stand it for 30 seconds once again.  You can try just a cold shower instead of a hot shower. This method is easily combined with the workout. Wake up, workout, shower, and more than likely, you will be wide awake. Essential oils can help you wake up in the morning. Some essential oils are traditionally used to wake you up, increase alertness, and keep you alert. Pour these scents into water and use a humidifier to spread them throughout the room, use an oil burner to spread the scent, sprinkle a few drops on a sachet, or simply sniff the oil in the bottle. Good scents to try are:  Lemon, Orange, Lime, or Grapefruit oils Peppermint oil Eucalyptus oil Rosemary Acupressure means you either apply pressure or gently massage certain points on your body. Apply pressure to the following points on your body for three to five minutes to help you wake up:  On the top of your head. The webbing between your thumb and index finger. Right below each knee cap,...

If you’re stuck trying to reject someone who can’t take a hint, won’t take no for an answer, or is just a creep who won’t leave you alone, you may not have the luxury of kindness.  Just get things done quickly and safely. "I'm sorry, I'm not interested in pursuing this further, and that's all there is to say.  Good luck and goodbye." A good “poker face” will help; if you know you’re a terrible liar, it’s probably best just to skip trying.  Lie as little as you think you need to.  A smaller lie is easier to sell than a big one.

Or try (“I” focused) statements like “I just got out of a long-term relationship;” “I don’t date outside of my religion/culture;” or “I think you look too much like my brother/sister.” This is a situation where a text or email can suffice.  Particularly if you have any concern that the person may lash out in anger at your rejection, feel free to place some distance between the two of you before doing what needs to be done. Some people simply need an absolutely clear, no-doubt, no-wiggle room, outright rejection to get the picture.  Don’t hedge, don’t leave any seeds of uncertainty.  As politely as you can, be blunt.  Don’t ignore their texts/calls/emails until after you have clearly expressed your desire not to be involved.  Once you’ve made yourself clear, then you can ignore their pleas, complaints, rants, etc. If you ever feel threatened or unsafe because of the other person, get help and/or contact the authorities.  Some people really can’t handle rejection.

If you’re suffering from a stomachache, a bit of raw ginger could help. Slice a thin piece of raw ginger off a peeled ginger root and chew on it the way you would a piece of chewing gum. Once the flavor has gone out of the piece of ginger, you can throw it away and get another piece. Raw ginger is great if you’re experiencing nausea related to pregnancy, since it will settle your stomach without bothering your baby. The size of the chunk of ginger you’ll want to use depends on how strong you like your tea. To start, try a chunk of ginger about 1 inch (2.5 cm) square. Cut up the chunk into smaller pieces and place it in cup. Then pour 1  c (240 mL) of boiling water over the ginger.  You can peel the ginger root chunk before you slice it, but you don't have to. You can add 1  tsp (4.9 mL) of honey and a few squeezes of lemon juice to the cup for extra flavor. If you’re juicing as part of your diet, adding ginger can increase the health benefits of eating right. Before you make your juice, slice a 1 inch (2.5 cm) piece of ginger off a ginger root. Take the ginger remnants out and then make your juice as you normally would. Your juice will have the flavor and benefits of ginger without adding anything chunky to your juice. If you like, you can leave the ginger in your juicer for a chunkier, spicier juice. Some of the compounds in ginger can increase your body’s production of digestive juices. If you haven’t been feeling well and having been losing weight because of it, ginger can give you your appetite back.

If you’re supposed to be somewhere, aim to be there right on time. It is better to be early than late. If you know you might run into traffic or other obstacles, leave early to give yourself extra time.  Being punctual is one of the best ways to show that you are dependable. Even being just a few minutes late can send the wrong message. Set alarms on your phone to wake you up in the morning or to remind you when you need to leave. If you know you need a lot of time in the morning to get ready, make sure that you wake up early enough to get it done. If you receive an email, phone call, text message, or letter, read it and respond to it within 24 hours. By doing so, you'll make sure that they get the proper response and that you don't forget to reply to important matters.  If someone calls and you’re not available, try sending them an email or text message asking if you can call them back later. Set aside 30 minutes in the morning and afternoon to answer all of your emails. This will help you answer them if you are busy throughout the day. Occasionally making a mistake doesn’t mean that you are not reliable. Just make sure that you accept responsibility for all of your mistakes and offer to fix them as soon as possible.  For example, if you promised to pick up groceries on the way home and forgot, you might offer to go back out and get them. If you made an error on a document at work, tell your boss that you will fix it right away. Whether you’re helping your friend assemble a TV stand or preparing a presentation at work, always do your best work. Go above and beyond if possible to show that you can perform good work consistently. For example, if you are helping someone put up pictures on their wall, take the time to measure out the space and to level out each frame. Don’t just put a nail in the wall and walk away. It’s hard to be dependable when you’ve taken on too many responsibilities for one person to handle. Don’t be afraid to ask friends, family, or coworkers for help when you’re feeling overwhelmed. For...

If you’re surrounded or bombarded with images of girls who look completely different than you, it can be easy to feel like an outsider. It’s important to find relatable role models who inspire you. It doesn’t matter if it’s a plus-size model in a fashion show, a super confident woman you know in real life, a teacher, a family member, or a body positivity spokesperson – just find someone who helps you love yourself. Do a search online for plus-sized or obese models, writers, song writers, or actresses. Read their stories and listen to their interviews. They may inspire you! If there are certain things you don’t like about yourself, you’re most likely the only one who notices. If you can forget about your little “flaws,” others will too. If you’re having a great time and embracing what you have to offer, other people will be attracted to that. Consider giving yourself a compliment each day. If you're having trouble doing this, start off with something small, like your eye color, then work your way up. As cliché as it may sound, you only live once. Don’t waste your time worrying about a few extra pounds or trying to conform to a certain expectation. Embrace your body, and remember that it is completely beautiful in all of its uniqueness. When you feel confident, worthy, and gorgeous in your own skin, you will look like it too!

If you’re talking to a girl that you’ve never met before, you’ll want to learn more about her. Ask open-ended questions that don’t require a “yes” or “no” answer to give her a chance to show more of her interests and personality.  For a girl you just met, you can ask, “Have you had any good adventures lately?” or, “What’s something that you find really interesting?” If you know her, ask her about things that you might have in common, like, "What did you do this weekend?" or, "How did you do on that history project?" That will give her a chance to talk and give you an opportunity to respond. Paying attention when a girl talks is a great way to show her that you’re interested and nice. Eye contact is the best way to communicate that you’re engaged in the conversation, and be sure to throw in affirming comments at the appropriate times. If you have something to add to the conversation, make sure you wait until there’s a pause to jump in with your comment. No one likes to be interrupted while they talk! Girls love a guy who has a sense of humor and can make them laugh. Think about something funny that happened to you recently and bring it up in conversation if it goes with the topic that you’re talking about.  For example, if you’re talking about school being tough, you might say something like, “Yesterday, I got my Spanish test back and saw that my teacher circled my name at the top of the test. I was so confused for a second, but then I realized I spelled my own name wrong!” Try to avoid randomly bringing up a funny story, because that can make it seem like you’re trying too hard. Keep the story short to avoid boring the girl, and keep an eye out to make sure she isn’t bored. If you notice her staring off, wrap up your story and change the subject to something else. Many girls respond positively to small gestures like a touch on the arm, sitting close, or brushing her hair behind her ear. Make excuses to have physical contact with her, which will make her feel more comfortable and at ease around you.  A great...

If you’re thinking about doing a water fast, consult your healthcare provider. Though fasting may offer health benefits for some people, others should avoid it. Be sure to discuss your medications and medical conditions with your doctor to determine if water fasting is safe for you. They will likely perform a physical exam and possibly do some blood tests. If you take medication, you will have to discuss with your doctor whether to continue to take your medication while fasting, or if any dose changes need to occur. It’s best to fast only with a doctor’s supervision and input, especially if you’re fasting over 3 days or have any medical conditions. Find a doctor who is trained in fasting and have them guide you and monitor your condition during the fast. Ask your primary doctor to supervise you or suggest another professional who can. After 2-3 days of water fasting you may experience dizziness if you stand up too quickly. Avoid this by getting up slowly and doing some deep breathing before standing. If you do get dizzy, immediately sit or lie down until it passes. You can also try putting your head between your knees. If you become so dizzy that you lose consciousness, stop fasting and see your doctor. It’s not uncommon to feel some dizziness, a little weakness, nausea, or occasional skipped heartbeats while fasting. However, stop fasting and seek medical attention if you lose consciousness, feel confused, have more heart palpitations than one or two a day, have severe stomach discomfort or headache, or any other symptom that feels alarming to you. You may experience a drop in stamina and energy during this time. Don't overexert yourself. Maintain healthy sleep patterns.  Fasting is all about rest - physical, emotional, sensory and physiological.  If you feel like napping, nap. Read uplifting material. Listen to your body and don’t push yourself physically. If you feel tired and “out of it,” do not operate a vehicle. Your energy may fluctuate between feeling weak and tired and feeling energetic. Even when...

If you’re traveling to a different city, see if rain, cold, or extreme heat are in the forecast. Tailor your clothing decisions to the conditions you’ll be in. This is extremely important because nobody wants to end up sick when travelling. If it’s raining, plan on bringing an umbrella or raincoat, and leave behind your best leather shoes if you’ll be walking around outside. If the temperatures look high during the day and night, you can save room in your bag by leaving behind your heavy jacket. Wear something comfortable if you’ll be traveling on the plane or in a car, like a pair of jeans and a T-shirt. Pack something nicer for the first night if you have an event or will be going out to dinner, like a dress for women or slacks and a button-down shirt for men. To save extra space, wear your day shoes the first day, while traveling. If you have a fancier event that night, pack a pair of nicer shoes, such as heels for women or dress shoes for men. You can wear your day shoes the next day to travel in. If you plan to get up and travel the following day, save space by wearing the casual clothes you travelled in yesterday. This might give you room to sneak in a second pair of shoes, or a hair straightener. Women can bring along a pair of capris and a blouse. Men should opt for a polo shirt and slacks. This is a must for obvious reasons! Since you’re only staying for one night, there’s usually no need to bring more than one extra pair of each. If you anticipate rainy weather, throw two pairs of socks in your bag in case one gets wet. Bring a long-sleeved shirt and pants if your destination will be chilly, otherwise opt for something smaller and thinner, like a nightgown or a T-shirt and boxers. This will save space and keep you cool while you sleep. Jewelry is lighter and smaller than clothes and can dress up a plain outfit in a heartbeat. For a colder climate, throw in a scarf, or wear it while traveling. To keep a jewelry chain from knotting, place it in a plastic bag and pull just a bit of the chain out. Zip...

If you’re trying not to get caught smoking in your own home, don’t smoke all over the house.  Instead, designate a single room in your residence as a smoking room, and only smoke there. If you run the water for your bath or shower, you’ll generate a great deal of steam.  This steam neutralizes other airborne scents, including cigarette smoke. If you’re smoking in a large office and want to avoid getting caught, light your cigarettes in a room with a window you can crack open.  Open the window before you smoke to reduce the volume of smoke that accumulates inside. A tall and relatively disused stairwell might be a good option. If you smoke near a smoke detector, you could trigger it, alerting everyone in the building that you’re smoking.  Even if you don’t trigger a noisy traditional smoke detector, you might get caught by a more modern smoke detector that can differentiate between fires and cigarette smoke.  Newer smoke detectors use wireless signals to alert building managers when and where people are smoking. Keep an eye out for smoke detectors when deciding where to smoke indoors. When smoking indoors, steer clear of high-traffic areas.  Smoking in areas with lots of people about only increases the odds that you’ll be caught smoking indoors.  Instead, head to a disused part of the building or an empty back room.

If you’re trying to add some calcium to a smaller area of soil, eggshells can be an effective and thrifty solution. To start using eggshells in your garden, simply save the empty shells you accrue from cooking and baking. Eggshells need to be as dry as possible before you can use them in soil. This will help their calcium be absorbed into the soil fully. Set your eggshells aside in an empty coffee can or other dry container. Dry eggshells should grind up easily. The powder should have the consistency of ground coffee or flour. The finer you grind the shells, the more effectively the soil will absorb their calcium. Mix the powder into the soil after spreading it by using a tilling machine or your hands, if the area is small. Adding the powder a few weeks before you plant your seeds will help ensure that the soil is in good condition for growing. If there are already plants growing in the soil, though, spread the powder around the plants. Add about 2 tablespoons (30 ml) (28.3 g) of eggshell powder into 1 gallon (3.8 L) and stir. Once it's combined, pour the mixture over plants and soil alike. Monitor the growth of your plants. If you think they are having difficulty growing, add more eggshell powder to improve the soil. If your plants seem to be flourishing, you probably won’t need to add any more.

If you’re trying to dechlorinate pond water, use a spraying device (like a spraying nozzle connected to a hose) to add air into the water as it enters the pond. Chlorine is volatile and will naturally dissipate in open ponds, but aeration will speed up the process considerably.  Aeration does not work for chloramine, however, which is a less volatile additive used by some municipal water authorities. You’ll need to add a dechlorination agent as well. You can buy dechlorination agents at any pet store.  Every dechlorination agent specifies the amount of water it’s designed to treat, so read the directions carefully.  Adding the dechlorination agent requires unscrewing the bottle's lid, then turning the bottle upside down, allowing the proper amount to drip out.  The water will be ready for immediate use. If you’re using the water in a fish tank with a biological filter, choose a dechlorination agent that doesn’t have an ammonia remover, which could cause problems in your filter. You should always dechlorinate water before adding it to a fish tank, but aerating the water will also aid in removing chlorine.  Fish tanks typically require an air pump to circulate the water, so you’ll get an aerating and chlorine removing agent as a bonus. Buy the appropriate pump for your tank’s size and type, and the pets you’ll be keeping in the tank.

If you’re trying to make a more official, standardized crossword puzzle, there are specific dimensions you have to adhere to. If you’re making a more casual puzzle, though, you can pick whatever size you want. If you're using an online crossword puzzle maker or puzzle-making software, you may be restricted to a certain range of available sizes. If you're making your puzzle by hand, it’s totally up to you. Usually you'll select words according to a theme of your choosing. That theme, or a clue to it, can then become the title of the puzzle. Examples of common themes include foreign places or languages, words from a certain time period, famous people, and sports. This part of the process can feel as challenging as actually solving a crossword puzzle. Once you've laid the words out, black out any unused squares.  In a US style crossword, there should be no “hanging words,” or words that do not connect to other words. Every letter should correspond to both an Across word and a Down word, and be totally interconnected. In a UK style crossword, hanging words are permitted. If the answer to a clue is a phrase rather than a single word, there should be no spaces between the words. You don’t need to worry about capitalizing proper nouns in your answers, as crosswords are usually filled out in all caps. The answers should not include punctuation either. Many crossword puzzle creators automatically lay the words out for you. All you do is specify puzzle size and input the list of words and clues. Begin in the upper-left corner of the puzzle, and divide the words by whether they run vertically or horizontally, so that you have a “1 Down,” and a “1 Across,” etc. This can also be pretty mind-bending, and many people prefer to use software instead of doing it all manually. If you're using a crossword puzzle creator, it will handle the numbering for you automatically. This time the starting square for each word should be numbered, but the squares themselves should be otherwise blank. If you’re creating your puzzle by hand...

If you’re unable to find the exact clothing items you need for your costume, your best course of action is to teach yourself a little bit about sewing. Look up tutorials for basic sewing techniques and follow along. Once you’ve sharpened your skills, you’ll be able to turn ordinary fabrics into one-of-a-kind garments.  Having some sewing skills in your repertoire is also useful for adding embellishments to items to make them more faithful to your source material. Record all of your major measurements (shoulders, chest, waist, hips, thighs, and inseam) so you’ll be able to tailor your custom clothing to your frame. Both of these materials are incredibly useful for crafting armor, shields, weapons, and anything else that’s made up of flat surfaces and angles. Not only are they cheap and easy to come by, they can also be cut, shaped, painted, and glued or taped without any special know-how.  Rummage through your closets or garage to search for scrap cardboard or plywood that you might be able to convert to costume components. If you don’t have any luck, ask around at area businesses—many stores give away old boxes for free.  Plywood will hold up better than cardboard if you’re going to be moving around in your costume or packing it up to transport it. You can make almost anything out of EVA foam. Just sketch your design onto a sheet of the proper thickness and density and carefully cut out the pieces using a utility knife. Hot-glue the individual pieces together, carve out fine details with your utility knife, then paint your props to add color and texture.  You can buy sheets of EVA foam at any craft store for just a few dollars. Browse user-submitted templates for various weapons and accessories on cosplay websites and message boards, or simply have fun figuring out how to put things together yourself. If you find a piece that’s the perfect fit but the wrong color, dying it is a quick and easy fix. Similarly, fabric paints make it possible to add detailed design elements to plain garments. Between sewing and...

If you’re uncomfortable peeing in public one easy way to at least trick yourself into believing you’re alone is to keep an empty stall or urinal between yourself and any other bathroom users. If you’re uncomfortable peeing in front of your partner, this may simply mean that you close the door while you're in the bathroom, or wait until your partner is in another part of your home. Sometimes the thing that bothers people most is the sound of peeing.  But if you aren’t able to hear your own peeing, you might not be so embarrassed.  When in a public washroom, put your headphones on and listen to some music.  Turn it up loud enough so you can’t hear anything else going on in the washroom. Consider putting a radio or Bluetooth speaker in the bathroom at home.  Make it a habit of turning it on whenever you go into the bathroom.  The music will help distract you from the sound of your peeing and possibly prevent your partner from hearing it. When some people walk into a public washroom they sometimes continue to have conversations.  This tends to continue more often when men or boys pee at urinals.  If it helps, remember that peeing is totally natural, and urinals are very efficient.  Or if you’d prefer to do your business in private, use a stall instead of a urinal. The opposite might be possible if you’re at home or at a urinal with your father/son/brother/etc.  Continuing your conversation while you go to the bathroom might make the whole process seem more comfortable and ‘normal’. Many large event locations (e.g. arenas, stadiums, conference centres, malls, etc.) have maps of their buildings online that include the location of the washrooms.  And some cities even have maps of all public washrooms available in city buildings, parks, etc.  Before going out, research where the public washrooms are so you can be proactive about using them rather than waiting for it to be an emergency.You can also keep track of the public washrooms you use and always go back to your favourites.

If you’re under 18, you may need your parent’s permission to get the piercing. They will have to go with you to sign a consent form. If you are over 18 and hold a job, check with your employer about dress codes. Also, if you go to a private school, you’ll want to find out if face piercings are acceptable. Don’t go looking for a bargain. You don’t want to risk anything going wrong. Instead, ask around. Word of mouth is a great way to find a reputable piercer. If no one knows of anyone, start looking some up online. Go into the shop and get to know your piercer before you decide. Ask them about previous piercings that they've done, if there were every any issues, and how long they've been doing them. Sometimes, they’ll even have a photo album for you to look through.  Ask to see certificates that their Autoclave has passed spore tests. If they do not have an autoclave, leave immediately. The shop should be clean and sanitary. Some piercers are registered with the APP. Whilst this ensures they should be sanitary in their work, it does not mean that they do good piercings. Always check feedback of their customers and do not assume that an APP certificate means that they are a good piercer. You’ll need to bring your license for sure. Some states require a birth certificate as well. The laws change from state to state, so check about the law in your area.

If you’re under 18, you won’t be able to work as an actor without your parents’ permission, so it’s important to get them on board with your plans. Explain how much you enjoy acting, so they understand that it’s something you’re extremely passionate about. You may also need to reassure them that you won’t neglect your other responsibilities, such as school and chores, just because you’re pursuing acting. Don’t tell your parents that you want to become an actor just because you want to be famous or rich. Have some good reasons ready, such as you love telling stories or have fun creating characters, so they’ll take you seriously. While you may have natural talent, it always helps to hone your skills, so you’re well-prepared when you start to go on auditions. A school drama class is a good place to start, but specialized classes and workshops in specific acting areas, such as commercial acting or acting for the camera, are more impressive to list on your resume.  If you don’t have time during the school year to take acting classes, a summer drama camp may be a good alternative. If you want personalized acting instruction, you might talk to your parents about hiring an acting coach who can work with you one-on-one to improve your skills. While you probably won’t be able to get a professional acting job right out of the gate, you’ll want potential agents and casting directors to know that you have experience performing. Look for local opportunities to act (such as school plays, regional theater, and student films) so you have some roles to put on your resume. Try to play a large variety of types of roles. Doing so will it give you an opportunity to stretch your acting skills and will also showcase your impressive acting range to casting directors.
