One of the most common and immediate symptoms of smoking is the persistent smokers' cough. It can appear in as little as a few days after beginning smoking and can even be present with casual (not heavy) smoking. The cough is usually the worst in the morning and lessens throughout the day. It is usually accompanied by phlegm which can be clear, yellow, or even green. Smoking causes teeth to turn yellow over time, so be mindful of this if your child's teeth start to look more yellow. Also take notice if your child suddenly becomes interested in teeth whitening products like special whitening toothpaste or whitening strips. While yellowing teeth may take some time to appear, smoking cigarettes can cause yellow stains on your teen's fingers and fingernails almost immediately. A wheezing sound can indicate several different physical conditions in your child, but one of them is damaged airways/lungs from smoking. Shortness of breath is a tell-tale sign of a smoker. If your child is suddenly not able to be active for long periods of time or takes longer to catch their breath after physical activity, you should consider the possibility that they might be smoking. Smokers are more prone to getting certain respiratory diseases like colds, bronchitis, and pneumonia. If your child is suddenly getting sick more frequently with diseases like this, you might need to be concerned that these illnesses are the side effects of a new smoking habit.

One of the most common causes of added weight after beginning a birth control regimen is water weight, especially during the initial period when your body is still adjusting to the new medication. Eating a balanced diet can help you lose this water weight and lead a more healthy life in general.  Eat a healthy mix of vegetables, fruits, grains, protein, and low-fat dairy every day. A diet that’s high in fiber and lean protein may help you lose weight or increase your current weight loss. The diet may also help lower blood pressure and improve cardiovascular health. Aim to eat 5.5 ounces (160 g) of protein and 0.7–1 ounce (20–28 g) of fiber every day.  High-fiber foods include raspberries, pears, apples, whole wheat grains, and broccoli.  Lean protein foods include salmon and chicken breasts. Sodium can increase your fluid retention and water weight, which leads to weight gain. In addition to drinking water to flush your system, avoid foods that are especially high in sodium like:  Salted nuts Canned food Smoked or salted meat (such as bacon or ham) Cold cuts Soy sauce Fast food items like chips or french fries. . Though it may seem counterintuitive, one of the best ways to reduce water weight is by staying hydrated. Drinking plenty of water can help you shed water weight by keeping your fluid levels in balance.  Women should drink at least 2.7 L (0.71 US gal) of water every day. Avoid drinks that can dehydrate you, like alcohol.

One of the most common causes of itchy feet, athlete’s foot usually causes a red, scaly rash on and in between your toes. Your feet may be itchiest right after removing your socks and shoes. You might get athlete’s foot on just one foot or on both.  Athlete’s foot is caused by moisture, often from exercise or heat. Be sure to remove your shoes and change into dry socks so that your feet can also dry. You might also get blisters on your feet, or ulcers – areas where your skin rubs off. One type of athlete’s foot starts on the sole of your foot and causes dryness and scaling that travels over the side of your foot. Mild athlete’s foot can often be treated with OTC powders, sprays, or ointments that fight fungal infections. You can ask your doctor for recommendations, or speak with the pharmacist at your local drug store. Common brands are Tinactin, Micatin, Lamisil, and Lotrimin-AF.  Rinse your feet and dry them really well, especially in between your toes. Then apply the medication to the tops, bottoms, and sides of both feet, and in between all your toes. Use the medicine two times every day until the rash goes away. Simple athlete’s foot should heal in about a week. If your case takes longer to heal (4 to 6 weeks), then you may need an oral anti-fungal medication. If OTC medications don’t clear up your athlete’s foot in 4-6 weeks, you may need prescription-strength medication. Visit your doctor to discuss this option. Stronger medication may be available to put on your feet, or you might need to take an antifungal medicine as a pill. Oral antifungal medications can affect your liver, so let your doctor know if you have or have ever had liver problems. Athlete’s foot, caused by a fungus, thrives in damp environments. Keep your feet dry, and change your socks and shoes as soon as possible if they get wet. Dry your feet thoroughly before putting your socks on.  Athlete’s foot is also highly contagious, so if you share a swimming pool or locker room with others, protect yourself. Wear shower shoes in the locker...

One of the most common foods known to be high in probiotics is yogurt.  You can find yogurts with live and active cultures at just about any grocery store.  Adding this to your diet in addition to probiotic beverages can help support a healthy gut.  Many yogurt companies are now adding probiotics to their yogurts.  It's common to see yogurts that are advertising "live and active cultures" on their products.  Look for this labeling on yogurts before you purchase them.  Choose yogurts that have little added sugars to them.  You may want to stick to plain yogurt instead of flavored and add your own fruit or flavorings at home. Including one serving of yogurt daily is a great way to get in a decent amount of probiotics.  Aim for 1 cup of yogurt per serving. If you're lactose intolerant or do not enjoy dairy foods, there are plenty of probiotics found in fermented and pickled vegetables.  These crunchy and slightly sour foods are a great source of gut-enhancing bacteria.  Vegetables that contain probiotics include:  kimchi, sauerkraut, pickles, and pickled vegetables (like pickled cauliflower).  If you're purchasing these foods from the grocery store, make sure to look for items that have not been pasteurized as this process kills the probiotics.  It should say "naturally fermented" or "unpasteurized." Include a serving of these tangy vegetables everyday to help increase the amount of probiotics you eat.  A typical serving of vegetables is about 1 cup.  This may be a lot when it comes to fermented vegetables, so consider splitting up this serving throughout the day. Another interesting place that you can find probiotics are in vegetarian protein sources.  Both tofu and tempeh contain probiotics and can be a great alternative to either dairy or fermented vegetables.  Both tofu and tempeh are made from fermented soybeans.  The probiotics result from this fermentation process making these protein sources beneficial to your gut.  Since tofu and tempeh are considered a protein, it's important to measure out the...

One of the most common manifestations of bad writing is overuse of the passive voice. In English, the most basic sentence structure is S-V-O: Subject-Verb-Object. “The zombie bit the man” is an example of this sentence structure. The passive voice can cause confusion by putting the object first: “The man was bitten by the zombie.” It usually requires more words and use of a “to be” verb form, which can suck the energy out of your writing. Learn to avoid these constructions as much as you can.  Using the passive voice isn't always bad. Sometimes there is no clear way to make a statement active, or sometimes you want the lighter touch a passive construction allows. But learn to follow this rule before you start making exceptions. The main exception to this is science writing, which conventionally uses the passive voice to put the emphasis on the results, rather than the researchers (although this is changing, so check the guidelines before you write). For example, “puppies fed spicy dog food were found to have more upset stomachs” puts the emphasis on the finding rather than the person doing the finding. Good writing, whether it’s in a novel or a scholarly essay, is precise, evocative and spiced with the unexpected. Finding the right verb or adjective can turn an uninspired sentence into one people will remember and quote for years to come. Look for words that are as specific as possible. Try not to repeat the same word over and over unless you are trying to build a rhythm with it.  One exception to this is the words used to describe dialogue. Bad writing is filled with "he commented" and "she opined." A well-placed "sputtered" can work wonders, but most of the time a simple "said" will do. It may feel awkward to use the word "said" over and over, but changing it up unnecessarily makes it harder for your readers to get into the back-and-forth flow of the conversation. “He said/she said” becomes nearly invisible to your readers after a while, allowing them to stay focused on the characters’ voices.

One of the most common places for clothes to fold and crease is near your bottom and thighs when you sit. The fabric may get folded and permanently crease after you stand up.  For dresses or dress shirts, pull down slightly on the tail when you sit so you are sitting on it flat, as opposed to pressing wrinkles into it with your body. In the car, unbutton the bottom button of your shirt and lay it over the lap belt. This will help prevent creasing along the area where your seat belt rests. If you are in the habit of crossing your legs when you sit, be careful, as it will crease your pants. Just like when you sit, crossing your legs creates small folds in the fabric of your clothes that press down to create creases and wrinkles. Try sitting with your legs uncrossed on days you are avoiding creases. When you are sitting at a desk or table, if space permits, stretch your legs out and keep them outstretched. The more contact and pressure your clothing receives, the more it will crease. Try to let your clothing hang loose and not be pressed up against your body by your hands, folded arms, bags, or jacket for long periods of time. If you are at a party or other event where sitting is not required, stay standing. Sitting is mostly responsible for pant creases in the legs and the seat. If you are able to stand, you will minimize the opportunities for your trousers or dress to wrinkle.

One of the most common reasons for ear pimples is lack of hygiene. Touching your ears with unwashed hands can transfer oil and bacteria to the skin, which clogs the pores and causes pimples. Make sure to keep the shell of your ear, your earlobes, and behind your ear cleaned. Shampoo, gel, and other hair products can get on the ear and cause pimples. Use soap and water and clean when you shower or wash your face and hair.  Clean the inside of your ear when needed. Make sure to irrigate the ear with solution and don't use cotton swabs inside your ear. Wipe your ear after every shower. This is when the pores are slightly open, so you can remove excess oil and help reduce blackheads. Another common way of getting ear pimples is through the telephone. Wipe down your cell phone after use. It is especially important to wipe down a telephone if you share it with other people. Since earbuds go into your ears, they can get caked with oil, earwax, and other dirt and grime. When earbuds are out of your ear, they can pick up dirt and other contaminants. When you place them back in your ears, that stuff transfers. Use an alcohol wipe to clean your earbuds after each use. If the pimple is in your external ear, don't use earphones until it is gone. This will aggravate the pimple. Wipe over it with an anti-bacterial wipe, since the pimple could return if your earphones are dirty. If you get ear acne often, your ear is covered with black dots, or you have a zit that is draining fluid, you need to see your doctor. You also should see a doctor if your ear blemish is very painful and lasts longer than a week. They can give you something to help clear it up and determine if the underlying cause is hormonal.

One of the most common surgical treatments for this condition is reconstruction surgery. During the surgery, the prematurely fused bones will be separated and your child's head will be reshaped so that the brain can develop normally. This is done by installing body-friendly plates into your child's skull that will be spontaneously absorbed into the bones over time. This surgery is typically done between the ages of 6 to 12 months. So far, there hasn't been any conclusive studies showing that it makes a difference if the surgery is done before 6 months of age. Sometimes, the eye sockets of a child with Apert syndrome can be so malformed that the child's eyes bulge out and become susceptible to infections that could ultimately lead to blindness. If this is the case with your child, you may want to consider surgery to repair the shallowness of your child's eye sockets. The roof of the mouth serves as a barrier between the nose and mouth. Cleft palate cases pose problems because there is an incomplete barrier. Infections from the nose may reach the mouth and vice versa. Choking becomes more frequent as well. Therefore, the barrier must be restored through surgery. Before even considering this, it is important to know that this surgery is almost exclusively done for aesthetic purposes only--the ability to use the fingers and toes is usually not able to be restored. Surgeons can, however, separate your child's fingers and toes for aesthetic improvement. This surgical procedure reconstructs your child's face so that the nose, eyes, and mouth function better. It can also correct the deformities that are caused by the syndrome, making your child's face look more like children who do not have this syndrome.  This surgery is normally performed when your child is 6 to 8 years old. The surgery can also be done that only focuses on your child's nose--it makes the bridge of the nose more prominent.

One of the most common symptoms of ovarian cysts are abdominal abnormalities or problems. You may experience abdominal bloating or swelling due to cysts. You may also feel some kind of pressure or fullness of the lower abdomen.  You may also experience unexplained weight gain.  You may also feel pain at the lower right or the lower left side of the abdomen. Rarely, there may be pain at both right and left sides. The pain may be inconsistent and come and go. The pain may be sharp or dull. Some less common symptoms of ovarian cysts may cause some problems with your normal excretions. You may have some trouble urinating or a feeling of pressure on your bladder. This can cause an increased frequency of urination or difficulty emptying the bladder completely.

One of the most common ways to eat chia seeds raw is to sprinkle them over or mix them into other dishes. Stir them in any wet food to turn the dry seeds gelatinous and mushy, which will help them blend into the food less obviously.  Add chia to your breakfast by sprinkling 1 or 2 Tbsp (15 or 30 ml) of chia seeds over oatmeal, yogurt, or breakfast cereal. For a healthy snack or light lunch, stir 1 to 2 Tbsp (15 to 30 ml) of chia seeds into a cup of cottage cheese. Mix chia seeds into wet sandwich ingredients. Use tuna salad or egg salad for savory sandwiches, or peanut butter or hazelnut spread for sweet sandwiches. If the food is dry, the seeds will stay crunchy, which some people prefer. Even on wet foods, a sprinkling of seeds at the top may not form a gel if not mixed in.  Sprinkle the seeds over any type of salad. Decorate pudding with a dash of chia seeds. This is especially helpful if you have picky eaters in your household that may otherwise scoff at the notion of consuming these tiny seeds. Mix chia seeds into potato salad or cold pasta salads. Add 2 tbsp (30 mL) of chia seeds to a large serving bowl of potato or pasta salad and stir thoroughly. Mix 2 Tbsp (30 mL) chia seeds into your favorite granola bar recipe. For a no-bake recipe, stir the seeds into 1 cup pitted, blended dates, 1/4 cup peanut butter or other nut spread, 1 1/2 cups rolled oats, 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup, and 1 cup chopped nuts. Spread this mixture on a pan and harden in the fridge. You may toast the oats before adding to add a different flavor, or explore other granola bar recipes that require baking. Add chia seeds to pureed fruit. More chia seeds will create a gelatin, while fewer will create a jelly. You may need to experiment with different amounts until you find a ratio best suited to your type of fruit and preferences. Roughly speaking, 1 1/2 cups (375 ml) of pureed fruit and 1/2 cup (125 ml) chia seeds mixed together create a chunky jam.

One of the most common ways to remove strawberry seeds is to blend the berries and then extract the seeds from the pulp. To do this, you will need five or more mature, ripe, and healthy strawberries. You will destroy some of the seeds in the process, but strawberries have lots to spare.  Place the berries in a blender and blend the fruit on low speed for 10 to 20 seconds. Set the blender aside and allow the mixture to settle. Skim off the top layer of floating seeds. You can discard these, because they are likely broken or not viable. Pour the pulp through a fine-mesh strainer with a bowl underneath to catch the pulp. You can eat this, use it for baking, or make jam. Move to a sink and run water through the strainer to help wash away excess pulp. When you're done, the strainer should have a bunch of unbroken seeds left in the bottom. Spread these out on a piece of paper towel and allow them to air dry. Remove any large bits of pulp that are still mixed in with the seeds. Another way to remove the seeds from a strawberry is to scrape them off with a knife. To start, place about five ripe and healthy strawberries in an airtight container and place them in the freezer overnight.  The next day, remove the strawberries from the freezer. With a razor, utility knife, or sharp kitchen knife, gently scrape the sides of the strawberry and pick out the individual seeds. Don’t cut too deeply into the berry. Be very careful not to cut yourself. Place the harvested seeds on a sheet of clean paper towel and leave them to dry. Use the strawberries for eating or cooking. Another way to remove strawberry seeds is to cut off strips of flesh from the berry and allow them to dry. Once dry, you can easily rub the seeds off with your fingers. This method is safer than the scraping method. Use about four ripe strawberries.  Place the strawberries on a flat cutting board. With a sharp knife, carefully peel off vertical strips (from the stem to the tip) from the outer layer of the strawberries. Cut just deep enough to get the seeds...

One of the most common, important uses of hyphens is to string together related words and concepts to form single words and unified phrases. For example, terms like "state-of-the-art", "first-timer", and "penny-pincher" all use hyphens to create a single idea from multiple words.  Here are a few examples of hyphens being used correctly in compound words:  The singer was infamous for his over-reliance on autotune.   That ten-year-old is remarkably mature for her age.   As a general rule, you should never put spaces around a hyphen (e.g., write "ten-year-old", not "ten - year - old." Most words with prefixes, like "predetermined" and "evermore" don't need hyphens. However, some prefixes (namely, "ex-", "self-", "all-", and sometimes "cross-") need hyphens to separate them from the word they're modifying. Note that "cross" doesn't need to be hyphenated in words like "crossword," where it is part of the word itself, nor in terms like "cross purposes," where it is a separate word, as it's not being used as a prefix in these cases. Here is an example of a hyphen being used for prefixes:  She frequently accused her ex-boyfriend of being completely self-absorbed. Similar to the way they are used for compound words, hyphens can also be used to create descriptive, colorful terms that may not be found in the dictionary. Hyphens used in this way allow you to create your own words from scratch. However, it's important to remember not to rely too heavily on unique hyphenated words, as this can become distracting. If you can convey your ideas just as well with one or more normal words, do so.  Here is an example of a unique hyphenated word used well:  Kim took time off from her job and became a professional couch-sitter in the days just before giving birth.   Here is an example of a unique hyphenated word being used in a way that's not necessary. In this case, the hyphens don't make the term any easier to understand.  I couldn't decide what to get at the pizza place, so I ordered my usual three-cheese-no-meat combo. Some...

One of the most conspicuous signs of fleas are what they leave on your dog. Take a close look at your dog’s skin to see if they have any small, red, raised bite marks. Additionally, fleas often leave behind “flea dirt,” which will look like small, dark grains of sand, as well as small white eggs that resemble tiny grains of rice.  If your dog has an allergic reaction to the bite, the red area may be larger. If your dog has dark fur, run a flea comb once through its fur to check for signs of fleas. Then, tap the comb on a white paper towel to see if any flea dirt or eggs fall off. Excessive scratching, licking, and biting at the skin is another clear sign your dog may have fleas. Watch your dog’s behavior to see if they are suddenly itching, biting, or licking at their skin more than is typical. Scabs, bald spots, and inflammation can be indicative of a number of skin conditions, including fleas. If you suspect fleas, take a look at your dog’s coat to see if the they have any areas of irritation, bald spots, or scabs. If you find any of these symptoms present on your dog, call your vet. In addition to being a sign of fleas, these symptoms could be signs of ticks, mange, and other canine skin conditions. In severe cases, you may actually see adult fleas jumping on your dog’s back when it moves. Take your dog to the vet right away for treatment. The severity of the case also depends on your dog, so don’t panic. The vet will be able to tell you how bad it is and prescribe treatment accordingly.

One of the most difficult things about meditation when you're just getting started is the issue of what to do. You're sitting there, breathing in and out...then what? Eventually, as you practice meditation, you'll notice the thoughts that come and go from your mind. You might be focused on picking your kids up, what you're going to have for dinner, or some lingering stresses from your workday. Rather than identifying with these thoughts and allowing them to inhabit you, imagine them as fish swimming in a pond. Watch them move through your mind and out of your mind. Doing this distances you from your ego, allowing you to become more distanced from the "I" that thinks. Allow your thoughts to flow through your mind, continuing to focus on your breath, observe them, and let them go. Awareness may feel more like an energy than a thought, and it's very difficult to describe or to experience. This is why meditation is referred to as a practice, and why zazen essentially translates to "just sitting." What do meditation masters and zen monks do? Just sitting. Recognize as you drift into thoughts about your surroundings or your life, but don't try to pull your mind along back to a pre-conceived version of "awareness" you might have. As you begin meditating, this will happen frequently and may be quite frustrating. In an old Monty Python sketch, two men are lost in the desert. They start crawling as the buzzards start circling in. Desperate for water, one of them looks straight into the camera and says, "Wait a bit!" At this point, the camera pans back to reveal an entire camera crew with a catered lunch laid out for everyone. The men eat and before too long, all the crew is wandering through the desert, desperate for water, until one of them says, "Wait a bit!" and the whole process is repeated. Our mind can work like this. As you're watching your thoughts, you may think: "But wait. Who is watching the thoughts?" This can get into a frustrating struggle with your mind, common to "just sitting." Focus on your breath....

One of the most effective and best-known ways of strengthening your pelvic floor muscles is by doing Kegel exercises. They are simple exercises you can do anywhere that increase the strength of the muscles that control your bladder — as well as the uterus, small intestine and rectum. To help identify your pelvic floor muscles, stop urinating in midstream. The muscles that contract are the ones Kegel exercises strengthen. The exercises can be done in any position (so you can do them while sitting at traffic, at your desk at work, etc.), although it's easier while laying down.  Once you've identified your pelvic floor muscles, tighten them and hold the contraction for five seconds, followed by relaxing them for five seconds. Repeat this sequence five to 10 times a few different times daily. Over the course of a few weeks, work up to keeping the pelvic muscles contracted for 10 seconds at a time, while also relaxing for 10 seconds afterwards. Do the exercises standing and sitting as well. Repeat this sequence five to 10 times daily until you're able to control your bladder better. Be careful not to cheat by flexing your abdominals, thighs or buttocks, and remember to breathe freely while doing the exercises. Many factors weaken pelvic floor muscles, such as pregnancy, childbirth, surgery, aging, obesity, chronic coughing and excessive straining from constipation. Bladder training is an important behavioral therapy that can be effective in treating urinary retention and incontinence. The goals of this therapy are to increase the amount of time between urinating, increase the volume of fluid your bladder can hold and diminish the sense of urgency and/or any leakage issues. Bladder training requires that a fixed bladder emptying schedule be established, regardless if the urge to urinate is present or not. If the urge to pee occurs before the assigned time, urge suppression via contracting the pelvic muscles should be done.  Empty your bladder as best you can as soon as you wake up. Then set intervals of one to two...

One of the most effective ways to get rid of a cough and cold is to rest. This means getting extra sleep, up to 12 hours a night. Take a day off from work or school if you need to, which will have the added bonus of avoiding getting coworkers and classmates sick. Keeping the air humid can help make you feel better when you have a cold. You can use a vaporizer or humidifier. Another way to breathe humid air is by taking hot, steamy showers. Put essential oils in your humidifier, like eucalyptus oil. You can also place a cloth with eucalyptus oil on it in the shower with you. Let the water hit the cloth and release the scent. Drink plenty of warm fluids, especially water. Drink lots of water. At a minimum, try to drink eight to 10 8-ounce glasses of water a day. Drinking water helps with congestion and mucus.  You can also drink juices, clear chicken broth, herbal teas, or vegetable broths. Avoid alcohol and caffeine. You can add honey and lemon to the water or tea. When you are sick, it is important to get the nutrients your body needs to heal itself. Good food full of vitamins and minerals also boosts your immune system, which can help you fight your cold. Make sure you are getting enough vitamin B complex, vitamin C, zinc, and copper. You can take supplements to make sure you get enough of these vitamins and minerals. Sipping, or eating, warm liquids like soup is a traditional remedy in many cultures. This includes chicken soup. Hot, spicy soups are used in Asian healing treatments. The soups include red pepper, lemongrass, and ginger.  Spicy foods can promote sinus drainage and help ease cold symptoms. Garlic, onions, and mushrooms are foods that help with inflammation and provide anti-oxidants. The salt water helps reduce any swelling in your throat, making a cough less likely.

One of the most effective ways to get rid of whitefly infestations is to introduce animals to your garden that will feed on the whiteflies, but not your plants. Lacewings, minute pirate bugs, big-eyed bugs, some species of ladybugs, and some spiders all eat whiteflies. Garden supply stores often sell these bugs, and should say whether the insect they are selling will eat whiteflies. Encarsia formosa or other Encarsia species are tiny parasitic wasps, which can be introduced to your garden to invade the whiteflies' bodies and disrupt their ability to reproduce. They are commercially available, but most can only thrive indoors, in greenhouse environments, and in tropics. Many strains of whitefly are resistant to insecticides, while their predators and parasites are not. Thus, using insecticides can sometimes increase the amount of whiteflies in your garden. Ants are not predators of the whitefly, despite their frequent appearance near infested plants.

One of the most effective ways to help you get over your crush is by distancing yourself from them. Minimize any contact or the potential for contact so that you can get over them without having any lingering ties that could upset you or reinforce your feelings for them. Distancing yourself will be hard at first, but it’s ultimately for the better and will make the process of getting over them easier and faster. One way to assure that you won’t have any contact with your crush is to delete their contact information from your phone. Also consider erasing any text messages from them that you may have. Deleting this information will not only keep you from contacting them in a moment of weakness, but won’t be an ever-present reminder of them, either.  If you’re reluctant to delete their information entirely, consider writing it on a piece of paper that you won’t see every day and store it in a safe place. Email copies of their text messages and then archive them if you aren’t ready to completely delete them. Remember that even if you delete your contact, they may not delete you. If they contact you, you can either not respond or choose to send a brief, polite response. The large number of social media sites, such as Facebook and Instagram, means increased accessibility to people, even those with whom you don’t necessarily want to be in contact. By removing your crush’s presence from your social media accounts, you can further limit the amount of contact you have with them. If you’re concerned that you might hurt your crush or leave others questioning your motives by unfollowing or defriending them on social media sites, find a way to minimize what you see on these apps. For example, on Facebook you can simply unsubscribe from their posts, which will make sure that you don’t get status updates. It’s natural when you have a crush on someone to talk about them and to think about them a lot, but this will only reinforce your feelings. Consciously not mentioning them in conversations and actively shifting your...

One of the most effective ways to prevent shock is to understand who is at risk. The conditions and situations listed below increase the likelihood of shock:   Severe injury Blood loss Allergic reactions Anemia Infections Dehydration Heart problems Drug and alcohol use While you can't anticipate all injuries, accidents, or diseases that might lead to shock, you can take some preparatory measures against this medical condition.  For example, if you or someone you know has a known allergy, make sure to carry an epinephrine pen to reduce the risk of anaphylactic shock or a severe allergic reaction. Stay hydrated to prevent the body from going into hypovolemic shock.  Research ways to reduce the risks of heart disease and cardiogenic shock and what activities and situations can increase risk of shock in these individuals. Regular exercise and a healthy diet prevent some of the major diseases that increase risk of shock. You should also schedule regular physicals and talk with your doctor or a medical professional about any underlying conditions that might lead to shock. Taking a first-aid class will help you get the training you need to assess whether someone might be experiencing shock and offer advice on how to care for that person until medical professionals can take over.  Local hospitals and community centers often organize these classes or can direct you to resources in your area. You can also find courses through the American Red Cross, the American Heart Association, St. John Ambulance and the National Safety Council.

One of the most effective ways to prevent the flu is thorough and frequent hand-washing. This minimizes the spread of bacteria and the flu virus from surfaces that many people touch.  Use a mild soap and water and wash your hands in warm water for at least 20 seconds. Use a hand sanitizer if soap and water are not available. If you have the flu, and out of common courtesy, cover both your nose and mouth when you cough or sneeze. If possible, cough or sneeze into a tissue or the crook of your elbow to avoid contaminating your hands.  Covering your nose and mouth minimizes the risk of spreading flu to those around you. Make sure you are sanitizing your hand with a thorough hand-washing after you sneeze, cough, or blow your nose. The flu is very contagious and spreads most easily in places where crowds congregate. Staying away from crowded spaces can help minimize your risk of contracting the flu.  Make sure to wash your hands after touching anything in crowded spaces, such as handles in public transportation. If you have the flu, stay home for at least 24 hours to help minimize the risk of spreading the flu to others. Germs spread easily in places such as bathrooms or on kitchen surfaces. Cleaning and disinfecting these spaces frequently may help prevent spreading the flu virus.

One of the most effective ways to quickly find sites that are selling the product you want is to simply search for the product using a search engine like Google, Yahoo!, or Bing. If the product is popular, you will receive several pages of links to shops that offer it. You can use this as a starting point for comparing prices. Beyond selling products themselves, Amazon acts as a liaison between you and a massive number of third-party vendors. The companies and people all use Amazon as a way to list products and use the Amazon payment system. This means Amazon and its third-party vendors has one of the largest inventories available on the planet Amazon allows for vendors to sell used goods, so be aware of the product you are buying if you need it new. For harder to find items, check online auction sites. These are a little more hands-on than simply purchasing from a store, but you can potentially find good deals and rare items if you take the time. See this guide for tips on auction sites. Auction sites have a lot more rules and regulations than traditional stores, and require a fair amount of input from you, the buyer. Make sure that you are familiar with all of the rules and regulations before you begin bidding. Beyond the big-name stores and auction sites, there are also a variety of marketplaces that cater to specific markets. You may be able to find better deals for what you need, or bulk options that weren't available in the big stores.  Don't forget to check the product manufacturer's site as well. You may be able to save some money buying direct from the manufacturer instead of through a retailer. Not all manufacturers have their own online stores. There are a variety of sites that will collect prices from a wide selection of online stores and return a comparison. A lot of forums and sites exist for finding deals on specific items. These sites are mostly geared for specific markets, such as deals on electronics, books, and more. If you aren't looking for specific items but want to stay informed about...

One of the most efficient ways of improving your reading speed is to preview the material before you read it. This can help you to get a sense of what the text is about and allow you decide if it's even worth reading in full.  To preview the material, try reading the entire first paragraph, the first sentence of each successive paragraph and the entire last paragraph. In between these items, look at headings, bullet points and highlighted words. This won't give you all the details, but it will help you to identify the most important parts to go back to and what you can simply skim over. This is a good technique for long, unfamiliar or difficult texts which you are trying to get an initial grasp of. Another technique is to simply scan the material and pick out any key words. By using this method, you can develop a basic understanding of the material without wasting time on the nitty gritty. For example, in the sentence "the fearsome lion stealthily hunted its unsuspecting prey -- the antelope," it is not necessary to read every single word in order to grasp its meaning. By skimming the text for key words you can come up with the phrase "lion - hunted - antelope", which communicates essentially the same meaning. following this step allows you to halve the time it takes to read a text without sacrificing too much meaning. This technique is best used for simple, short texts, such as magazine and newspaper articles. If you're reading an article, book or paper for the sole purpose of gleaning new information, then a handy technique is just to read the first and last sentence of each paragraph, especially when it's reiterating something you already know.  A lot of non-fiction work can be very repetitive and contain long-winded explanations of a simple concept. If you already have a grasp of the concept, then there's no need to go through the entire paragraph line by line. This also goes for newspaper and magazine articles -- if you only want a basic overview of the contents, it's amazing how much information you can...

One of the most glamorous things about Megan Fox is the pristine glow of her skin and hair. While some of this can be attributed to Hollywood makeup magic, there's no denying that Megan adheres to a very savvy health routine. Getting a healthy shimmer to your skin requires patience and devotion to a regular cleansing routine. While getting better-looking skin will undoubtedly have you looking more like Megan Fox, regular care routines should be based around the characteristics and issues of your own skin.  Washing your face regularly is a must for most beauty programs, especially if you are prone to oily skin. Use a good chapstick or lip balm to avoid dry lips. Use a face wash that matches your skin type. If you have dry skin, try using a moisturizing face wash. On the other hand, i your skin is oily, you might want to try an astringent cleanser. Exfoliating your skin on a regular basis will ensure your skin is silky smooth. A build-up of dead skin flakes is one of the most common reasons why your skin may not be as radiant as it should be. Get the base of your face ready by using the correct foundation. Use a foundation brush to apply it to your skin. Make sure to match the color to your skin tone so your makeup looks fresh and natural. While Megan Fox has preferred foundations that work for her, it's likely that other pigments will work for your own skin tone. It is important to note that following Megan's cosmetic routines closely may result in a less successful look if your skin is any different from hers. The best thing is to use her style as an aesthetic inspiration whilst trying to formulate your own.  Megan's makeup artist has used Cle de Peau Silk Cream Foundation on her face. She uses NARS Radian Creamy Concealer in Custard for her under eye circles. Megan has also stated she likes Giorgio Armani's Luminous Silk Foundation. One of Megan's most famous features is her long, luscious eyelashes. Because she naturally boasts such strong lashes, she doesn't need to use a lot of eye makeup. If you also...

One of the most identifiable elements of the cowboy style is a good leather boot with a hard wooden heel (Not actually wooden, is stacked leather). They can  take some getting used to, since the heels and sharp toes are designed for fitting a [stirrup] on horseback.  If you’re the kind of cowboy who doesn’t use his boots for much more than walking down the street, there are plenty of intricate and comfortable designs available. When a cowboy is working, he needs pants that are both comfortable and durable.  Most cowboys favor simple jeans, with straight legs or boot cuts. A hat is more than just an accessory for a cowboy – it performs essential functions.  A cowboy hat is traditionally worn to keep a cowboy’s head cool, to keep the sun off of his face, and to keep flying dirt out of his eyes. Fancy designer hats are readily available, but a real cowboy prefers an old, worn in hat, whose shape has been formed only over years of hard and constant use.  For a true cowboy hat, look for the Stetson or Bailey brands.  Choose a beaver fur felt hat for cold weather, and a straw hat for the warmer seasons.

One of the most important aspects of any type of journalism is accuracy. If you use incorrect information, the story or photo loses credibility. Before uploading or printing any photo captions, make sure you’ve checked that anything stated in the caption is accurate. Don’t print an incorrect caption if you have trouble checking your facts, either because you can’t find an appropriate source, or because you’re on a deadline. It’s better to leave the information out if you aren’t sure it’s accurate. If a photo caption simply describes the visuals in the photo, it’s fairly useless. If you have a photo of a sunset and simply caption is as “a sunset” you’re not adding any additional information for the reader. Instead, describe details of the photo that are not obvious, like the location, the time of day or year, or a specific event that is taking place.  For example, if you have a photo of a sunset you might want to caption it as: “Pacific coast sunset, March2016, from Long Beach, Vancouver Island." Also avoid using terms like: “is shown,” “is pictured,” “and looks on,” or “above." A caption should not begin with the words ‘a,’ ‘an,’ or ‘the.’ These words are too basic and take up valuable captioning room when they aren’t necessary. For example, instead of saying: “A blue jay in the boreal forest;” simply say: “Blue jay flying through boreal forest.”  Also, do not start a caption with the name of someone, start the caption with a description first and then include the name. For example, don’t say: “Stan Theman near Sunshine Meadow Park.” Instead say: “Jogger Stan Theman near Sunshine Meadow Park." When identifying where someone is in a photo, you can say “from left.” You do not have to say “from left to right." If your photo includes important people, identify who they are. If you know their names, include them (unless they’ve asked to remain anonymous). If you don’t know their names, you might want to put a description of who they are instead (e.g. “protesters on the streets of Washington, DC”).  While it...

One of the most important aspects of studying is finding the right place. Although you don't want to get bored, you want to make sure you are in a place that is free of distraction. Distractions are counterproductive to learning and will actually cause you to become more bored because you are reminded of the things you could be doing other than studying.  Find a place that is well lit and temperature controlled. The light will help you stay focused and on task and the moderate temperature will help you avoid being too cold or too hot, both of which can lead to distraction and cause boredom. Make sure there is enough room for you to spread all of your materials out. Also make sure it is tidy. If you are more organized, you are more likely to stay on task and not get bored. Try other locales besides your bedroom or home. There are many distractions that can crop up while you are surrounded by your familiar environment. Places such as a library quiet floor are great places to study. It is made to be quiet, you are only surrounded by your study materials, and you are not likely to be interrupted since most people are there to study as well. If you are too comfortable in your study environment, you are likely to get distracted, bored, or fall asleep. Avoid lying down when you need to study. You want a chair that supports your back and body, but don't sit in a chair that is too comfortable. You don't want to get bored or sleepy, which will defeat the purpose of your study session. One reason you get bored maybe because you have no clear idea of where your study session is going or what you need to accomplish. Plan ahead and have what you want to do in your mind before you begin to study. Layout what you know you need to get accomplished and how long you need to take to complete it. This way, you will have a clear objective, which will help you combat boredom. If you know when you can go back to playing video games or talking to your friends, you will be more likely to concentrate of your studies. To help you not...

One of the most important aspects of the dress is the fit. Before you go shopping, you should figure out what fit you are looking for. If you have a small bust and shapely thighs and hips, think about an A-line fit.  A-lines usually have a fitted bodice with a skirt that flares gently from the waist to form an "A" shape. They work for most body types and are a particularly good choice for pear shapes, or someone who does not want a tight fit on their lower body. You can accentuate your waist further by picking a dress with a decorative element like a sash or beading around the waist of the dress. Avoid a dress that is bunchy or overly embellished on the bottom half. This will make your hips and thighs look larger than they are. If you have a large bust, you will want a fit that is supportive on top.  You should consider a dress with boning or with a built-in corset. This kind of fit will give you the shape you want and will prevent any mishaps on your wedding day!  Many busty women feel they can't wear strapless dresses. You can still wear a strapless dress, but to make yourself feel more comfortable on the day, make sure it fits to a tee. A square-neck dress is a great option for busty women because it shows off your assets without showing too much. An empire dress is similar to an A-line dress, except that it cinches under the bust and flows out to make a floor-length A-line. This fit is very flattering on most body types, and is a good option if you don't want to wear a tight-fitting dress. Though empire dresses are flowy, don't pick one that is too large or has a lot of excess fabric. You still want to accentuate your figure. Avoid any dresses that have any kind of horizontal detailing like beading or striping. Focus instead on finding a dress that has vertical elements like a plunging neckline, vertical paneling or vertical embellishments. An empire fit can also flatter a petite body type by accentuating the bust and creating the appearance of long legs. If you are thin and tall, you may either want to...

One of the most important parts of picking up a girl is knowing when to make a move. If the girl is giving you signals, like making eye contact, looking at you and smiling and then looking away, or standing with a group of friends looking out into the crowd, then it's pretty safe to assume you'd be welcome when you say hello. Though you can't wait around forever for the most perfect situation, you should choose your timing carefully to improve your chances. Here are some things to consider before you approach:  Read her body language. Is she turned toward the crowd and looking around her instead of deeply involved with her friends? If so, then this is a sign that she'd welcome an approach. See if she looks bored with her company. If she checks her phone a lot, plays with her hair, or rifles through her purse a lot, then this may be a sign that she'd be open to meeting new people. Make sure the girl isn't having a deep, serious-seeming conversation with her friends. If they are leaning in towards each other, talking intensely, and if one of them even looks like she's on the brink of tears, then tonight's not your night. You don't want to interrupt an important girl catch-up session. Women are drawn to confident men, and if you want to pick up a girl, then you have to let her see that you're comfortable with who you are. While it can take time to truly build your confidence, there's no harm in faking it when you approach a girl so you'll be closer to feeling that inner peace from projecting outward confidence. Here are some ways to get the girl with your confidence right away:  Let her see that you're not afraid. Make eye contact as you approach her and smile at her. Don't be bashful and look at the floor. Show confidence in your body language. Turn your body toward her, stand tall, and avoid slouching or looking down. Don't put yourself down immediately. If you make comments like, “You probably don't want to talk to a guy like me…” then you'll be discouraging her from wanting to talk to you. Part of confidence...

One of the most important qualities of a gracious person is the ability to thank people for their efforts, however big or small they were. Even if a co-worker is just calling you to tell you something, thank him or her for making the effort. If someone is asking you to donate money on the street, thank them for trying, even if you say no. If a friend picks up coffee or reminds you that your favorite show is coming on later, say thank you.  A big part of being gracious is being able to appreciate what people do for you. And how do you show your appreciation? You say thank you.  You can say “thank you” with a small gift, a note, or even a hug. There are a number of ways to thank somebody, and you have to pick the best way for the situation. Gracious people are other-driven, not self-driven, and they care more about other people than they care about themselves. Make an effort to really hear what people are saying to you, to make eye contact, and to put away any distractions, like your phone, which may keep you from fully giving people the attention that they need. Don’t interrupt people and hold your questions or comments to the end so they can finish saying what they have to say and feel like you really care about them.  Note all of the details of what a person is saying to you, so you can bring them up later. If someone mentions that his sister just had a baby girl, the next time you see him, you can ask how his little niece is doing; the person will be impressed that you care enough to remember this. Show sympathy. If a person is upset, you can say, “I can’t imagine what you’re going through. That must be so hard because…” Let the person see that you’ve really heard what you were told. Don’t multi-task. If you’re sending an email or texting a friend and a co-worker or roommate wants to talk to you, just ask to hold off for a minute so you can give that person your full attention. Being gracious means paying attention to people in social situations. Instead of worrying about how you come off or what you should...

One of the most important skills that a shoe designer has is the ability to envision something and translate that onto paper. The goal here is not to replicate what you can already see. Rather, you should imagine a shoe and sketch that out. Sketching doesn’t have to be done on physical paper. You might use design software to create your shoe designs. Shoe design is not all done with pencil and paper sketches. You will need to know design software, such as the Adobe Creative Suite. This includes PhotoShop, Illustrator, InDesign and other programs. Be able to recreate your pencil sketches on the computer. Also learn how to use computer-aided design (CAD) programs. These will enable you to create 3D digital designs. When you learn the different parts that go into creating a shoe from a design sketch, you will understand more about the entire shoe-making process. Make patterns for different types of shoes. Assemble your best shoe designs that demonstrate your skill and versatility as a designer. Aim for about 20 designs for a physical portfolio and 30 for an online portfolio. Keep the content fresh by updating your portfolio once in a while with new work. Include a designer’s statement, in which you talk about your influences and inspirations. Also include an up-to-date resume.

One of the most important steps to moving past your breakup is cutting off all communication with your ex. Do not call, text or email them. If they reach out to you, don't reply. You can even consider blocking them if you feel tempted to respond. Give yourself a minimum of 90 days while you detach emotionally from them.  If you have children or assets together, this won't be possible. Try to limit your interactions to only those that are absolutely necessary. If you don't have any reason (like children) to speak after 90 days, consider a full break from that person with no communication. Otherwise, you may prolong your pain and have a hard time moving on.  If you feel like reaching out to them, write them an email but don’t send it. Putting your feelings into words can be cathartic. Unfollow or delete the person on Facebook and unfollow them on Twitter and Instagram. You may want to make the social media disconnection permanent, since there's no reason to remind yourself of them in the future. Consider cleansing their pictures from your own social media profiles, too.  You don't have to delete the images forever! Just remove them from your accounts so you don't have to see them constantly. You may also want to unfollow their friends for now, so you don’t run the risk of seeing a picture or post about your ex. Seeing your ex frequently may keep wounds open longer than necessary. Try to avoid places they frequent. Take a different route to work or class. These small inconveniences will help you heal much faster. True healing can only come if you allow yourself to feel your emotions rather than constantly stifling them. Set aside private time every day to think about the breakup. Don’t hold in your tears; let them flow, freeing you of some of the sadness you're carrying. Every day, devote less and less time to grieving. You'll eventually find yourself thinking about the breakup less often. Remove all the memories of the person from your everyday life. The goal isn't to pretend like the person never existed, but...

One of the most important things that you can do is remember what your body is doing during pregnancy. It is growing, nourishing, and protecting another human being. All of the changes that are occurring are happening for a reason. Try to associate with other mothers-to-be. Surrounding yourself with other women who are also going through the physical changes associated with having a baby can boost your confidence in yourself and your body, and in doing so, make you feel beautiful. In addition, you’ll be making friends who may be sources of fun and support once your baby comes. Besides the pregnancy “glow”, your body will change in many other ways. For example, you may notice your breasts increase 1-2 cup sizes, you lose your waistline as your belly expands, and you may have swollen ankles and fast-growing fingernails. One positive way to deal with these inevitable changes is to embrace and accentuate them. Once you embrace these changes, you are on your way to feeling beautiful.  Accentuate the positive aspects of your body to feel beautiful. Look for a feature (or several features) that you feel confidence about, and accentuate it. For example, wear a sleeveless shirt if you’ve got toned arms, a V-neck sweater to show off your new cleavage, or a long flowing dress to show off a newly-rounded belly. If you are struggling to be positive, remember that your pregnancy is finite. You felt beautiful before your pregnancy, and you will feel beautiful after it as well. If accentuating your pregnancy isn’t for you, minimize the attention drawn to your baby bump by wearing lose garments, solid colors, and layering your clothes (for example, wear a loose denim jacket over a button down shirt). You can also draw attention elsewhere, such as by wearing a vibrant headband, a cute scarf, or bright tights. Don’t worry about having the perfect shape or living up to the ideals you see in pregnancy magazines. Instead, focus on being healthy and happy in both body and spirit. You won’t know how your body will respond to...

One of the most important things to do after you have had thyroid surgery is to keep the wound clean and dry. Follow your doctor’s instructions for wound care and bathing following your surgery. Doing so may help prevent your wound from becoming infected and it may also help the wound to heal faster.  Do not immerse the wound in water until it is fully healed. For example, do not go swimming or submerge the wound while taking a bath. Immediately following surgery, you may have a small drain tube exiting the skin of the neck near the thyroid incision site; it will help keep fluid from building up in your neck, fluid that could lead to infection and additional pain. Your doctor should remove the drain tube prior to your discharge from the hospital once any drainage is clear and sparse. The morning after your surgery, you can take a shower and allow water and mild soap to run over your wound. Do not scrub the wound or put pressure on it with high pressure water or your fingers. Just allow some water to run over the incision site and cleanse it. Your doctor may instruct you to keep the wound covered with some light gauze held on with tape. In this case, you may need to change your bandage once per day to keep the wound clean. Be gentle when you remove the old gauze as it may stick to your skin. If it is stuck, use about a teaspoon of hydrogen peroxide or saline to moisten the gauze and make it easier to remove the bandage. Then use some cotton balls dipped in hydrogen peroxide or saline to gently clean away any dried blood on your skin before replacing the bandage. Surgical site infection in thyroid surgery is very rare as it is considered a “clean case,” with minimal chances of contamination. However, it is important to observe the wound after surgery for signs of infection and talk to your doctor right away if you notice any of these signs. Signs that a wound may be infected include:  Redness, warmth or swelling at the site. Fever greater than 100.5°F (38°C) Drainage or opening of the wound

One of the most important things to do when passing a kidney stone is to drink lots of water. Your urine should look light yellow or clear. If it looks dark yellow or brown, then you are not drinking enough water.  Try adding a squeeze of lemon juice to your water to add some flavor. Drink 8-10 glasses of water every day if you have kidney stones.  Drinking cranberry juice can also be beneficial for kidney health. Its tannins can prevent infection and promote overall health. Over-the-counter pain relievers such as ibuprofen, aspirin, and acetaminophen are often recommended to help relieve pain caused by kidney stones.  If you can, try to take Motrin, which is preferred by doctors over other NSAIDS for relieving kidney stone pain.  Check with your doctor if you are not sure about which type or how much you should take. Make sure that you read and follow the product instructions as well. Drinking a glass of fresh celery juice may help because celery has antispasmodic properties. That means that celery juice can help to relieve any pain that is caused by spasms in the tissues in and around your kidneys.  If you have a juicer, then you can make your own fresh celery juice with a few stalks of celery. If you do not have a juicer, then try to find a local juice bar and ask them to make you a cup of celery juice. Eat some celery seed, too. Celery seed is a good tonic and urine promoter. Green tea may help to treat kidney stone pain and it has also been shown to play a role in preventing kidney stones. Drink two to four cups of green tea per day. You can drink regular or decaffeinated green tea. To make a cup of green tea, place 1 teaspoon of dried tea leaves into a tea infuser or teabag, place the tea in a mug, and then pour a cup of boiling water over the tea. Let the tea steep for about 5-10 minutes, then remove the infuser or teabag. White willow bark contains the same active ingredient as aspirin and it may even provide the same pain relieving effects. Try drinking a cup of white willow bark tea to get some...

One of the most important things to learn when practicing any singing style is how to breath from your diaphragm.  This allows you to take in more oxygen, helping you to hold notes (or screams) for much longer and avoid getting out of breath while performing. When you breathe from your diaphragm your stomach should expand as you inhale and contract when you exhale. Learning how to breathe correctly and naturally from your diaphragm takes practice. Therefore you should start doing daily deep breathing exercises to improve your technique. You will have different levels of tension in your vocal chords depending on how high or low you sing or scream.  For example, when you sing in a low voice your voice box will move down, making your vocal chord tension loose. When you sing in a high voice your voice box moves up, making your vocal chords tight. Good screamo singing is all about control, and in order to have control you need to be aware of how vocal chord tension works and how you can manipulate it. Once you can control vocal tension, you will easily be able to move between high and low registers, even while screaming. A good practice technique is to hum along with the sound of your car engine as you rev it up -- this warms up your vocal chords and allows you to practice moving from high to low registers. Many inexperienced screamo singers damage their voices by trying to scream too loudly -- however, one of the best kept secrets of successful singers is that they actually scream kind of quietly (as weird and contradictory as that sounds).  Don't try to scream at the top of your lungs on your first attempt, start at a low volume and as your voice gets stronger you can gradually increase the volume.  The beauty of screamo is that you can let the microphone do most of the work while you're performing. Even a "quiet" scream can rattle your audience's teeth when amplified by a good sound system. You can also produce deeper sounds by cupping your hands around the microphone or by moving your mouth in specific ways as...

One of the most important things when looking for the girl for you is making sure that your girl is kind. A sassy attitude is one thing but someone who does not care about the feelings of others won't be able to sustain a healthy relationship for very long.  Also kind to others. It's important that she's not just kind to you. She should also be kind to others, especially people that she doesn't have to be nice to (like service workers). It's easy enough for someone to fake being nice when they think that it's important, but being rude to people they don't care about should tip you off that you're one fight away from her being rude to you too. This also means that she should be fair. Fairness is very important in relationships. Does she offer to pay for things every now and again? Does she split chores and relationship responsibilities evenly? This shows that she thinks about your well being, which is key in a relationship. You want to be with someone who's willing to work for what they want in life. They should push themselves, at least occasionally. When someone works hard, that means that they will be stable and that there will be fewer chances for things to go wrong. For example, if she wants to buy a purse, she should be selling some of her old stuff. She should not just expect you or her parents to just buy it for her. Birthdays and gift holidays are obvious exceptions, however. Having a girl with good values and priorities is very important in relationships. Her values and priorities don't have to match up with what's traditionally considered good but they should match up with your value system and your priorities. There are occasional exceptions though. Your girl should definitely:  Be honest. Honesty is incredibly important in relationships, no matter what kind of people you are and what kind of relationship you have. Relationships require trust and if she isn't honest with you, then you can only expect problems in the future.  Accept people for who they are, including you. If your girl is judgmental...

One of the most important things you can do is simply to let your car air out. Roll all of your windows down and let them remain open for a few hours to a couple of days.  If possible, leave the car doors wide open instead of simply the windows. This maximizes the amount of airflow going through the car. Consider running battery-powered fans in the car to push the air out faster. If possible, choose a windy day to air the car out, as well. Do not turn the car on and run the fan as it sits in one spot, especially if the car is in an enclosed space like a garage. Doing so can cause deadly carbon monoxide to build up. Use a vehicle upholstery cleaner on the seats and floors. Scrub the interior of the car from top to bottom. Floor mats may need to be removed and washed separately. If you find it difficult to remove the odor from the mats, replace them. Some automobile dealers and parts stores sell specialized chemical removers that are capable of removing heavy, strong smells like smoke.  Follow the label instructions carefully when applying the product. Let the car air out for a few days after using a product like this since a chemical smell will likely remain immediately after use. Use a vacuum cleaner to remove any residue left behind by the product. While these remedies usually mask the odor instead of removing it, many people do stand by them.  Place a bowl of vinegar, container of fresh coffee grounds, or open bag of charcoal in the car overnight or for a few days. Sprinkling baking soda over all the surfaces of the car interior and let sit overnight. Vacuum the excess in the morning.

One of the most important things you can do is to help your teen be responsible about sex. Even if you don't agree with the choice to have sex, you still want to make sure that your teen is safe. Help by providing informational resources.  Hearing you talk can be very educational. You can explain to your teen the importance of being with a partner who cares about and respects you. You can also use science to educate your teen. Provide information about sexually transmitted diseases and how they are passed between partners. Explain that intercourse is not the only form of sex. Make sure your teen understands that you can contract STDs from oral sex, too. Organizations such as Planned Parenthood offer a lot of information about sex in general, and teen sex in particular. Contact them to get some very helpful brochures. Try to convey to your teen the gravity of having a sexual relationship. Make it clear that there may be physical consequences. For example, sex can result in an accidental pregnancy.  STDs are also an unintended consequence of sex. Ask your child how they plan to prevent negative physical consequences. Make sure to address emotional consequences, too. Explain that there is a different level of emotional intimacy between two people who are having sex. Talk to your teen about protecting their feelings. Do they know how to express their emotional needs? Make sure that your teen has access to birth control. If you provide it, you can be sure that they have a safe method. Even if you don't agree with the choice to have sex, you can still help to make sure that your teen is safe.  Give your teen condoms. Anyone who is sexually active, male or female, should have access to their own condoms. You don't want your teen to have to rely on someone else to bring the protection. Empower your teen to protect his or her own body. If you have a daughter, take her to the doctor to get prescription birth control. A doctor can help you and your teen decide whether the pill or a different type of hormone therapy will...

One of the most important things you can do is to let people know about the stalking. Sharing your concerns with people you trust will gain you a much-needed network of support. These people will also be able to keep an eye out for you and help keep you safe.  Tell people you trust, such as family members, close friends, teachers, co-workers, or those in your religious community. You also may want to inform people in protective roles at your school or work about your situation. For example, consider informing your school principal, university official, or security company at work. Show people the stalker’s picture or give them a detailed description of their appearance. Let them know what they should do if they see the person. For example, “Please call the police right away if you see him. And please text me so I can stay away.” Ask your friends not to post any information about your whereabouts or post any pictures of you. Consider deleting your account entirely, or severely restricting its use.  Your stalker may be using what you post on social media to track you down and learn about your day-to-day activities. If you know the stalker and their online identity, block them from being able to access your accounts. Come up with a plan that you can quickly put into motion if you feel you are being threatened. This plan may include knowing a safe place to stay, having important documents and phone numbers at your disposal, or signaling people in the event of an emergency.  You may wish to have an emergency bag packed if you find you need to leave quickly with necessary papers and supplies. Consider informing family and friends of a code word or phrase that indicates that you are in danger and not able to speak freely. For example, you could decide that “Do you want to order Thai food tonight?” is your signal for your friend to contact emergency services on your behalf. If you have children, help them know of safe places to go and people to talk to if you or they find themselves in danger.

One of the most important things you can do to keep your feet from sweating is to wash them thoroughly every day. This will help to minimize any bacteria or fungi that might be living in the damp environment of your socks. Use antibacterial soap each time you wash your feet.  Even if you don’t shower every day, you should wash your feet with soap and warm water on a daily basis. Bacteria and fungi thrive in warm, damp settings, so inside your socks and around your feet are perfect places for them to grow. Be sure to dry your feet completely before putting shoes or socks on. Any time your feet get wet, they need to be thoroughly dried before being confined to shoes and/or socks again. This will also help minimize the potential for bacteria growth. You may even want to use a hairdryer on your feet to make sure they are super dry. Antiperspirant deodorant can be applied to other parts of the body too, not just to underarms. If your feet are sweating a lot, try spraying some deodorant on the soles of your feet before you put your socks on.  Make sure you use the antiperspirant type of deodorant for the best results. Look for the active ingredients aluminum zirconium (trichlorohydrex) or aluminum chloride (hexahydrate). You can start by applying the same kind of deodorant you use on your underarms to your feet. But if this seems to have minimal effect, you may need to ask your doctor about prescription strength deodorant. Purchase a spray antiperspirant deodorant for your feet.

One of the most important things you can do to keep your room clean is making your bed every morning when you wake up. Straighten the top sheet and tuck it under your pillows. Straighten and fluff your pillows. Straighten the blanket or comforter and pull it up and over your pillows. Once your room has been thoroughly cleaned, keeping it clean is the simple part. It’s all about doing a few things every day, like making your bed, to maintain the cleanliness. Many people like to change into comfy clothes when they get home after a long day at school or work. When you do this, hang up your coat, throw dirty clothes in the hamper, and fold and put away clean clothes that you're going to wear again. After a long day, it can be tempting to come home and just throw your coat and clothes on the floor or bed. But if you want to keep your room clean after all that hard work, you have to put your clothes away. Never leave dirty clothes on the floor, on the bed, or lying around in the bathroom or laundry room. When you take off dirty clothes, throw them right into the hamper.  To make this job easier, consider leaving a few laundry hampers around the house in areas where you regularly change, like in the bathroom, in your closet, and near your dresser. It can be just as easy to leave your clean laundry piled in a basket instead of putting it away. But again, this will quickly lead to a messy room, and it'll cause wrinkles in your clothes. When your clothes are fresh from the dryer, fold them neatly and put them away, or hang them back in the closet. This also includes things like linens and towels. Having food in your room can attract bugs, cause spills, leave crumbs all over the place, and lead to a buildup of plates and cups in your room. Instead, make your room a food-free zone, and do all your eating and snacking in the kitchen. Take plates, cups, utensils, and food waste back to the kitchen immediately if you ever do eat in your room. One of the biggest contributors to a messy room is having too much stuff. To...

One of the most important things you have to do is to realize that other people are just as competent, intelligent, and hardworking as you are. Okay, so unfortunately, this doesn't mean all of them. It makes sense that you're not asking your messy little sister to help you clean up the kitchen, or that you're not asking Lazy Bob to proofread a report for you; some people around us just can't really help us out. But there are plenty of good, helpful people out there, and if you want to live a happier life, you have to learn to believe in them so you can trust them to help you and to make their own decisions. Think about it: if you're always telling your boyfriend, your best friend, or your lab partner exactly what to do, then how would that make them feel? They'd feel like you don't trust them because you think they're not as smart/together/awesome as you. Is that how you want the people you care about the most to feel? If you want to stop being so controlling, then you've got to learn to delegate tasks to other people. Gone are the days when you throw everything upon yourself and annoy everyone with what a bossy, stressed-out person you've become. Instead, learn to delegate tasks to people, whether you're asking a co-worker to help out on a project or asking your friend to pick up the appetizers for a party you're throwing. Once you believe in other people, you should be able to ask them to help you out. Sure, it takes humility to ask for help, but you'll get used to it. Everybody gets through life with some kind of help, and you should be no different. Along with having faith in people and being able to delegate to them, you should work on being able to actually learn from them. You may feel that you're the only person who has anything to teach people, but if you actually let other people in and hear them out, you'll find that you're mistaken. You can't be the expert on everything, and there will always be people who have more insight or experience than you about certain subjects. Once you step back and...

One of the most obvious signs of bullying is physical assault in the form of punching, hitting, or striking. The person may physically harm you with his own hands or an object, or he may threaten to physically harm you. Often, a bully will physically assault their victim continuously over a period of time, with each assault becoming more violent and aggressive. Many bullies shove or push their victim. If you are being bullied, the bully may inflict minor or major physical injuries on you in places that they know not very many people will see or notice. They may do this to avoid suspicion from a parent or a supervisor. Bullies can also inflict physical discomfort in more subtle ways, such as invading your personal space on a continual and relentless basis. If you work in a cubicle or an office, for example, the bully may come in and sit right on your desk or stand in front of your cubicle or office door. If you are trying to work in the library at school, the bully may come and sit right on your school books or pull up a chair very close to you. Invading personal space is often done by bullies who are trying to intimidate you or scare you, without using actual physical assault. Bullies may also invade your personal space and then escalate their bullying tactics to physical attacks. Making loud noises, pointing bright lights at your eyes, and shoving stinky things in your face can be bullying if the person is doing it with the intent to cause you pain, or ignoring your requests to stop it. They don't have to hit you in order to hurt you.

One of the most obvious signs of pain is limping. Limping occurs when it hurts to put weight on a leg.  If a leg is causing pain, they are less likely to use it, and sometimes may rely on the other three legs. Dogs in pain will also typically move around less. Aside from limping, you may see other mobility changes. For example, your dog may have trouble getting up or down. It might also move around more slowly than usual, or show a reluctance to do certain activities. Hesitance to go up or down stairs, run, or jump can be a sign of pain. Note the position that your dog holds its head or tail. Any change from normal posture, such as a hanging or tucked tail in a dog that normally has an active tail, can be evidence of pain.  If your dog is holding a leg differently than it normally does, it could be a sign that it is in pain. Pain may also cause your dog to stand with its back arched or to be very stiff when standing or moving. If your dog is in pain, you may see an increase in their respiratory rate or heavy panting. A dog that pants persistently, especially in cool weather, may be in pain. Your dog's eyes can tell you a lot about any pain it might be experiencing. If there is pain in the eye area, you may see squinting, redness, cloudiness, or a discharge.  Your dog also may be rubbing at the area that hurts. If your dog rubs around its eyes frequently, this could be a sign of discomfort in this area. The eyes can also give you a clue about pain in other areas. Squinting can be a sign of pain in the eye area, but some dogs will also squint when they are experiencing pain elsewhere. Dilated pupils can also be a sign that your dog is in pain.

One of the most obvious ways to determine your financial readiness to move out is to know how much money you’ll need and how much you can afford to spend.  However, some people ignore this crucial step amidst their excitement at the prospect of moving out.  There are numerous formulas for determining the maximum rent you can afford floating around the internet, but two simple options are to divide your monthly gross income by three or your yearly gross income by forty. (Gross income is your pay before taxes are taken out.) Thus, if you make $2400 per month, you can afford an $800 monthly rent.  Or, if you make $20,000 per year, you can afford $500 per month. There is greater variance in advice on how much you need to save before moving, depending upon prevailing rents and many other factors.  One formula, which factors in greater rent costs for greater salaries, along with moving costs, basic supplies, etc., advises that someone making $20,000 per year needs to save up $1750; $30,000 per year requires $2250; and someone making $40,000 per year should have $3400 saved. Every financial advisor worth their salt will tell you to start saving now, even if it’s just a little bit per paycheck, because it establishes good habits and (literally) pays greater dividends in the long term.  Having a clear goal, like knowing that you need $2500 saved up before moving out, can make saving easier, but there are numerous strategies that can help.  Many of these, such as having funds taken directly from your paycheck to savings (just like taxes), can be found at How to Save Money. Practice saving not just for the move, but to establish an emergency fund once you do move.  One common recommendation is having an emergency fund that can cover three to six months of your expenses (use your budget as your guide). Once you’ve established your monthly budget and the amount you need to save in order to move out, look for ways to trim the fat from your expenditures.  Divide your budget into essentials, which might be groceries,...

One of the most obvious, fundamental signs that something is wrong in a relationship is if one partner becomes uncomfortable being physically close to another. Whether it's holding hands, cuddling, making out, or having sex, being physically intimate requires a great deal of trust from both partners. If one partner knows that the trust has been betrayed, physical intimacy can suddenly start to seem quite awkward and unnatural, even when it was easy before. If your girlfriend all of a sudden seems to recoil at the thought of touching you, something's up — even if it's not infidelity. To be clear, what you're looking for here is a sudden, unexplained reluctance to be physically intimate in ways that you previously were. If you previously were having sex and it doesn't seem to happen any more, this is a sign of a problem. However, if you've only kissed your girlfriend on the cheek, her unwillingness to have sex with you doesn't mean she's having feelings for someone else. People can take time to progress through the stages of physical intimacy — in fact, progressing too quickly to sex is one of the most comment complaints women have about he physical side of their relationship. In the modern age, our cell phones and personal electronic devices have become the way in which we keep in touch with our significant other. However, if your girlfriend has been fooling around with someone else, there's a good chance that her phone was also used to stay up-to-speed with him. Pay attention to the way your girlfriend handles her phone — does she keep it close to herself when she's texting? Has she recently added a password? Does she refuse to let you use it? Does she seem reluctant to let it out of her sight? If so, she may have something to hide. This advice isn't just for cell phones — it's also for other types of electronic gadgets people can use to communicate with each other. For instance, if your girlfriend keeps shutting her laptop or logging out of her social media profile every time you walk into the room, this can...
