Whether you have cured or uncured ham, it needs to be cooked to an internal temperature of 160 °F (71 °C). Cooking it at 325 °F (163 °C) over the course of a few hours will ensure that the ham doesn't get dry on the outside while the inside cooks. If the ham was vacuum packed or canned, it was already fully cooked. That means you can eat it straight from the package or heat it to just 140 °F (60 °C) before eating. Use a glass, ceramic or foil dish that's big enough to hold the ham and deep enough to hold the drippings. Score through the skin and fat, but not the meat. You can make a cross-hatched pattern for a pretty final effect. The scoring allows the glaze to seep deeper into the ham to flavor it down to the middle.  If you have a pre-sliced ham, skip this step. If you want to season the ham with whole cloves, press a clove into each intersection made by the score marks. You'll need to cook the ham until it reaches an internal temperature of 165 °F (74 °C). The amount of time you cook the ham depends on how much meat you're cooking and what type of ham you have. Check the temperature using a meat thermometer to make sure you don't over or undercook the ham. Here are the approximate cooking times:   For fresh ham: 22 to 28 minutes per pound.  For smoked ham: 15 to 20 minutes per pound.  For cured (country) ham: 20 to 25 minutes per pound. You can make the glaze while the ham is cooking. Use whatever glaze recipe you like, whether it's spicy or sweet. Bring the glaze ingredients to a simmer on the stove, then reduce the mixture until it’s pourable but thick. To make a classic sweet honey glaze, use these ingredients:  2 tablespoons mustard 1 cup firmly-packed brown sugar 1/2 cup honey 1/2 cup cider vinegar 1/2 cup butter 1 cup water This should happen within the last half our or so of cooking. Check the temperature with your meat thermometer, then carefully remove the ham from the oven to glaze it.  Use a pastry brush to baste the ham, and try to work it into the grooves you scored. Return the ham to the...

Whether you hit the snooze button constantly in the morning, or even only delaying getting up by five minutes, using the snooze button at all will make you feel more tired.  Sleep experts say that hitting the snooze button disrupts the inertia of your sleep, which in turn will make you feel (and look!) more tired throughout the morning.  When you first wake up in the morning and feel like you want to go back to sleep, that is normal sleep inertia; however, allowing your body to go back to sleep and having to repeat the process again a few minutes later will cause your brain to feel this pronounced grogginess longer after you do finally get up.  If you want to feel and look more awake right away, avoid post-snooze sleep and the snooze button! Your body’s internal clock is extremely sensitive to light and darkness, so try to avoid confusing it by telling it to be awake when you’re still in the dark.  A hefty dose of sunshine when you first wake up in the morning is one of the best ways to trick your body into waking up.  And if you feel like you’re awake, you will look like you’re awake.  If you open the curtains to overcast skies or you wake up before dawn, turn on a very strong light in every room you get ready in.  For best results, try using the type of lightbulb used to treat the seasonal affective disorder. If you have the willpower to wake up and do your full workout, that’s great!  For many people though, just getting up in the morning is hard enough.  Even if you feel extremely tired in the morning, another great way to perk up your appearance is to get the blood moving by taking a brisk walk around your room, doing a couple of jumping jacks, or stretching for about 5 minutes.  This light exercise and stretching will help wake up your mind and body, and it will give you an alert look and a rosy, healthy glow. When you wake up feeling tired it can be tempting to skip the shower altogether for a few extra minutes of sleep; however, taking a shower is a great way to wake up in the morning.  Adjust the...

Whether you learned a second language by drills, flashcards, and rote repetition, or by visiting a foreign country for the summer, there is likely a language theory that matches your method.  Familiarity with the bases of such approaches will help you formulate your teaching strategy for adults.  From the time of ancient Greece to well into the last century, new languages were almost invariably taught by what is often called the “audio-lingual method.”  If your high school French class involved a lot of rote learning, repetition, oral and written testing, emphases on grammar and translation, and constant correction by your teacher, you’re already familiar with this method. In the last half-century or so, a more (so-called) “natural approach” has become predominant.  It tries to replicate the childhood process of acquiring a language through immersion, play and tasks, constant usage in a low-pressure environment, and indirect emphases on grammar and vocabulary. Modern “natural” or “immersion” methods encourage leaners to jump right in to the foreign language without the drudgery of vocabulary lists, grammar lessons, and constant repetition.  Therefore, they are often a more appealing prospect to harried, hurried adult learners.  Such task-based methods are based on the premise that students will naturally “work out” vocabulary and grammar as they interact with the language (and the other students).  The struggle to do so, essentially, is part of the learning process. Critics, however, say that this leaves too much vital material for the student to address on his or her own, and that the teacher’s guiding hand in areas like grammar is vital, even if it can sometimes be less than enthralling. Despite the reputation they’ve assumed as “boring,” “sterile,” and “outdated,” there is a reason why classic approaches were used almost exclusively for thousands of years.  Even in the modern world, they can still have a place in the language classroom.  The “audio-lingual” emphasis on habit formation, mimicry,...

Whether you lightly splash your face with water, exfoliate it with a brush, or use the oil cleansing method, go ahead and wash your face. Pat it dry with a soft towel, making sure not to pull at your skin - your facial skin is fragile, and a lot of pulling and tugging can cause damage. Coconut oil is a wonderful undereye cream. It helps moisturize that paper-thin skin, improving dark circles and keeping wrinkles at bay. Use your fingertip to pat—don't rub—a tiny amount under your eyes, focusing on areas that have wrinkles. Then, gently run your finger along your undereye area to distribute the oil.  You probably only need a pea-sized amount for each eye. Take care not to use too much. Avoid getting the coconut oil in your eyes. It will thinly coat your eyes, making your vision blurry for a little while! If you tend to get a very dry patch between your eyebrows, at your temples, or in another spot, apply a small amount of coconut oil there. Rub it in gently using a circular motion. As a treatment or raw. Unrefined coconut oil will soften and moisturize chapped lips. It's completely edible, so there's no need to worry about ingesting a little. In fact, eating coconut oil is great for your health. If you want to make a sugar scrub, combine 1 part brown sugar, 1 part coconut oil, and 1 part honey. Mix and apply to lips. Remove excess. If you have dry skin, then you might consider applying coconut oil as a face cream. However, do not apply oil before applying makeup because it will affect the look of your makeup. Put it on after a shower or after washing your face. Let it absorb into your skin for 10 minutes before applying makeup. You only need about a dime-sized amount to cover your whole face.  Some people experience breakouts when they use coconut oil all over. Experiment by using coconut oil on just one patch of skin for a few days. If you like the effect and see no signs of the breakout, use it all over. You can use coconut oil for the oil cleansing method, too. Again, be careful if your pores are prone to...

Whether you like to be completely clean-shaven or you wear a mustache or a beard, you'll need to  shave parts of your face every few days. Get a sharp, high-quality razor to do the job, rather than getting the cheapest kind you can find. Your skin will feel and look better if you use a razor designed for a close, even shave.  If you use disposable razors, be sure to choose a brand that makes razors with double blades. These are more efficient and create a cleaner shave than a single blade.  You can get an electric razor if you don't need a very close cut. These razors should be used on dry skin. A straight razor will create a close, precise shave. If you decide to purchase a straight razor, it will take some practice to develop the skill to shave without nicking yourself. The warmth of the water will soften your skin and hairs, making it easier to shave. It's also important to cleanse your skin to get rid of dirt and bacteria on its surface in case you accidentally nick yourself shaving. This will lubricate your face so that the razor glides smoothly over its surface. Don't shave your face dry or without cream unless you're using an electric razor.  Try to find a shaving cream or gel without a lot of chemicals, which can dry out or irritate your face. Let the shaving cream sit on your face for a few minutes to further soften your skin and hair before shaving. It's not necessary to apply pressure to the razor when you draw it across your face. If the blade is sharp enough, the razor will do the job for you. Make sure you're shaving with the grain of your hairs, rather than against it, for a safe and effective shave.  If you're shaving off stubble that has had several weeks to grow out, trim it using beard clippers first. Get it as short as possible before shaving. Dip your razor in warm water to unclog it every few minutes while you shave. Pull your skin taught as you shave to get the closest possible cut. Use cold water to soothe your face and reduce bleeding from any nicks you might have gotten. Pat it dry...

Whether you live in apartment building, are staying in a hotel, or work in a tall building, familiarize yourself with its floorplan and evacuation routes. Know the shortest and fastest path to the nearest stairwell, and know where any alternative exit routes is located. Talk to the building’s superintendent or management personnel about specific emergency procedures. Never take an elevator in the event of a fire emergency. Every now and then, practice taking the stairs if you live in an apartment building or work in a high rise. Make sure you’re familiar with how many flights there are and how long it takes to descend the stairwell. Use handrails and step to the right (or to the appropriate side as determined by your building’s emergency protocol) to make room for any emergency responders ascending the stairwell.  Turn back if you notice smoke coming from lower levels of a staircase. If possible, make your way to the building’s roof. Keep the door to the roof open to help clear smoke from the lower levels of the staircase, which will help those who might be incapacitated and allow emergency responders easier access.  Once on the roof, walk in the direction from which the wind is blowing, call emergency services if you haven’t already done so, and let them know your exact location. Tell your building’s management personnel about any potential difficulty you or someone in your office or household by have escaping via a stairwell.  If you use a wheelchair and cannot use a stairwell, try to find someone in the immediate area who can assist or carry you down the stairs. Call your local fire department's non-emergency number ahead of time to let them know about your mobility requirements in the event of a fire. If there is no elevator available and you're stuck on an upper floor, let emergency services know your exact location and create window signals using any available means. If you’re staying at a hotel, be sure to keep your key card handy as you evacuate your room and floor. In the event that the hallway or...

Whether you live in the same house or across the country from one another, regular communication is important in enforcing sibling bonds. Stay in touch with your sibling any way that you can.  Text or Facetime your sibling once a week if they live far away. Eat meals together if you live nearby. Text them to let them know that you are thinking about them. Send them pictures that they might find funny. Give them a card. When you are together, plan some time just for you and your sibling. You can go out or stay in and just hang out. Do something that you will both enjoy. You can:  See a movie together. Play a board game or video game. Play a sport together. Take a walk after dinner. Hang out at the beach. Go out to eat. Cook a meal together at home. Have an arts and crafts night. You and your sibling may have different tastes, hobbies, and habits, but that doesn't mean that you can't still have fun with them. Find out what they enjoy or find important. Ask if you can join them next time they do it.  For example, if your sibling plays soccer, ask them when their next game is so that you can cheer them on. If your sibling loves to play video games, ask them to teach you how to play their favorite game. If your sibling is into a certain band, see if they want to see a concert together. This is an easy and thoughtful way to show that you care. Mark on a calendar any special occasions that are important to your sibling, such as birthdays, weddings, or graduations. Buy a card and a small gift to let them know you are thinking about them.  Select a gift that is meaningful for your sibling. For example, if your sibling does ballet, you might get them a ticket to see the local ballet. Gifts don't need to be expensive or elaborate. You can even make your own gift.

Whether you machine- or hand-wash your gloves, expect each wash to add some amount of wear-and-tear to your grips. To lessen the impact of repeated washes, refrain from washing after every single use. Wash once a week or every other week unless they desperately need it. Since you’re not going to be washing them after every single use, don’t ball them up in your bag or locker. Bring them home and hang them up on a clothesline or drying rack so they can breathe. Allow any sweat or other moisture to air-dry with plenty of circulation to keep smells from building. Even if you air your gloves out after each use, expect lingering sweat to start stinking them up at some point. Combat this by stuffing them with materials that will absorb the smell when not in use. Handy household items that can be used include:  New tea bags Dryer sheets Newspaper

Whether you prefer plucking or waxing, a good eyebrow shape can help make the most of your eyes. Figure out which shape works best on your face -- either by visiting a salon and consulting with a stylist, or trying different styles yourself (you can use eyebrow pencil and then wash off). Along with your eyebrows, getting beautiful eyelashes can highlight your eyes without makeup. A curler will keep your eyelashes looking their best and most uniform. Most of us need the computer for work, but most of us also spend too much time watching tv or surfing the internet. Too much computer time can put a strain on your eyes. Eyes get red and itchy if they don’t get enough moisture. If yours tend to get bloodshot, a humidifier can help make your environment more moist and help prevent dry eyes. This is also particularly good for environments that are highly air-conditioned -- air conditioning makes the air very dry. If you find your eyes getting dry, check out the products at your local pharmacy. Steer clear of those similar to Visine or others that contain naphazoline or tetrahydrozoline. They work well for a while, but after that can actually make your dry eyes worse.

Whether you purchase a pre-assmebled cleaning kit from a sporting goods store or you assemble the necessary components individually, you'll need a few basic things to have in your arsenal of cleaning supplies. A basic set includes:  Cleaning solvent Lubricant, or gun oil A bore brush A patch holder and patches Cleaning rod A nylon cleaning brush Flashlight Cotton swabs Microfiber cloths for polishing . Always take the time to properly unload your gun and double-check to make sure that it's unloaded every time you pick it up to clean it. Remember that your gun may still have a round ready to fire after you remove the magazine, so check and remove this round. After opening the chamber, look through the barrel from back to front. Confirm that no round remains inside, either in the chamber or stuck in the barrel. No gun can be considered unloaded until you have looked through the barrel. Check the owner's manual for disassembly instructions to prepare the gun for cleaning. This will allow you to access all parts that become dirty from firing.  Semi-automatic pistols and rifles will generally be stripped into their major components: barrel, slide, guide rod, frame and magazine. Revolvers, shotguns, and most other sorts of guns will not need to be stripped to clean them. Field stripping is not necessary to clean the gun thoroughly. Don't take apart your gun more than you have to unless it requires repair. Likewise, some guns can't be stripped at all and it won't be necessary to do anything but open the chamber to clean it. Find a a place with good air circulation to clean your guns. Solvent fumes are noxious and can make you sick. Likewise, the solvent and lubricant used just flat-out smell foul if you try to clean your guns indoors, so keep your family happy and don't stink up the joint. Cover your work surface with plastic bags, newspaper, or old towels you've saved for the purpose. Head out to the garage and put the door up, or clean your guns on a bright and dry day to get them cleaned properly.

Whether you take Plan B, Ella, or a dose of regular oral contraceptives, there are certain suggestions to follow for optimal effectiveness in preventing pregnancy. Plan B is two pills (which equals one dose) that you take together as soon as you can.  You only need to take one dose. Do not take more than the suggested dose or any other birth control pills in addition. The sooner you take Plan B after unprotected sex, the more effective it will be in preventing pregnancy. Plan B reduces the risk of pregnancy after unprotected sex by 95% if taken within the first 24 hours. Ella is only available by prescription but it is similar to Plan B in how you take it. You only need one dose, which for Ella is just one pill. You only need to take one pill. Do not take more than the suggested dose or any other birth control pills in addition. Doses differ depending on the type of pill you are taking.  For example, if you have Levora oral contraceptives, you will take 4 pills at each dose but if you have Aviane, you will take 5 pills at each dose. Be sure to check with a medical professional or pharmacist if you are uncertain how much to take.  Take your first dose within 5 days of unprotected sex, then a second dose 12 hours after the first dose. To use regular oral contraceptives as emergency contraception, you usually have to take two doses.  Do not miss the second dose or you greatly decrease the chance of successfully preventing a pregnancy. Regardless of which pill method you choose, you can expect certain side effects to occur so be prepared. Emergency contraceptive pills can cause side effects such as nausea, headaches, and dizziness. Be sure to ask your pharmacist or doctor what to expect. Taking an anti-nauseant pill, if one is available, will decrease the chances that you will vomit as a side effect of taking the emergency contraceptives.  Taking an anti-nauseant one to two hours before taking your emergency contraceptive may prevent you from throwing up the emergency contraceptive. If you throw up within an hour...

Whether you talk to vegetarian friends or comb the internet, there is a lot of advice about eating vegetarian. But, to eat healthy as a vegetarian you must understand your nutritional needs in terms of daily calorie and nutritional recommendations, which differ according to age, gender (nutritional needs differ not only for men and women, but also for pregnant women), and lifestyle (e.g., your needs will be different if you exercise rarely or you’re training for a marathon).  Seek out and read information that is specific to your age group, your gender, your health status, and your lifestyle. Utilize the Vegetarian My Plate guidelines, which provides recommendations for amounts and types of food that form a daily, well-balanced, plant-based diet.  Consult your doctor and/or a registered dietitian. Registered dietitians are credentialed through the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics’ Commission on Dietetic Registration. Whether vegetarian or omnivore, variety is the key to a healthy, well-balanced diet. Any time you cut a food group out of your diet, you may put yourself at risk of a nutritional deficiency. The nutritional benefits of the missing food group must be made up in other places in your diet. Vegans, with the most limited diets, may be at the most risk. Protein is foundational to the human body, present in every cell. It is essential for growth and maintaining healthy organs, bones, and muscles.   Recommended daily amounts of protein differ according to age, gender, and physical activity. Most adults need 0.8 grams (0.03 oz) of protein per kilogram of body weight. For example, a 140 pound woman (63.6 kg) would need 51 g of protein per day (kg x 0.8). Good sources of meatless protein include eggs and dairy. Plant-based foods can also provide enough protein if you eat a great enough variety every day. These can include meat substitutes, legumes like beans, lentils, seeds, nuts, and whole grains. Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the human body. It is necessary for building and maintaining strong...

Whether you think of yourself as a deeply spiritual person or not, a mystic is one who seeks to find order in the chaos and collect evidence of that order. If you're the kind of person who sees every strange coincidence, every elegant metaphor, or every pretty rainbow as a sign of something greater, you might begin to feel the presence of a guiding hand in which you place your trust.  Religious mystics place their trust in a higher power, a powerful being that creates and controls the world and the people in it. Sometimes, as in the case of Zen Buddhism, religious mystics will also place their trust in a practice, that asceticism and meditation are the truest way to understand the world. Mystics aren't always religious, though they often are. The writing of quantum physicists and Jungian psychologists often borders on the mystical, the deeper it gets. Whatever system, being, or practice you've found in which to place your trust, place it there. Seek to find order and balance in the world, rather than emphasizing differences and disparities. Look for things you have in common with your enemies.

Christian writer Thomas Merton spent considerable time studying Zen Buddhism, mphasize experience. What is a mystic? What differentiates a Christian mystic from a regular Christian, or a Buddhist mystic from a regular Buddhist? Across practices, disciplines, and cultures, mystics have one thing in common: a deep personal and spiritual connection to their belief system. To the mystic, a personal experience of spirituality is always more powerful and more important than book-learning or hearsay. Simply going to church isn't enough for the mystic. Avoid the showy materialist trappings of some religions. You don't need an expensive rock garden, koi pond, and meditation pad to be a Buddhist mystic. You don't need a 13th-century crucifix to be a Christian. . Mystics need to center...

Whether you use a brush, roller or paint sprayer to paint your house is ultimately a matter of personal preference. Each method has its benefits - using a brush gives you greater control over the painting, using a roller makes the job more efficient, and using a paint sprayer provide heavier coverage.   Using a brush: Many people who are painting their homes for the first time prefer to use a brush, as it forces you to be very thorough and gives you control over every square inch of the house. To use: dip your brush into the paint until the bristles are halfway covered. Touch the brush against the wall at several points across a horizontal line. Go back and paint back and forth to fill in the empty spots and provide even coverage.   Using a Roller: To use a roller, roll it in the paint until all sides are evenly covered, then apply the paint to the wall using criss-cross strokes. Then, go back and paint over the same section using up and down strokes to fill in the gaps.   Using a paint sprayer: To use a paint sprayer, load your chosen paint into the sprayer. Hold the sprayer upright, about 1 foot (0.3 m) away from the wall. Move the sprayer smoothly back and forth, beginning the motion prior to pulling the trigger to avoid areas of heavy deposits of paint. Make sure each new stroke overlaps the previous one by about 8 inches (20.3 cm).   Using the spray and back-roll technique: The spray and back-rolling technique is a particular method recommended for both its speed and evenness of coverage, but it requires two people. It involves one person using a sprayer to quickly coat the wall in paint, and the other person following behind with a roller to spread and even it. Paint all of the sidings on your house before you work on the trim. This gets the bulk of the work out of the way, and also speeds up the process as you won't need to switch between colors. When painting your sidings (or whatever material covers the main exterior of your home) there are several rules you should adhere to:   Work from top to...

Whether you use a cream, a light oil, or another product, it's a good idea to moisturize your skin every day after washing. Doing so will help your skin retain its elasticity and keep it from feeling uncomfortably itchy or getting too flaky. Choose a good moisturizer that's right for your skin type.  If your skin is on the dry side, choose a moisturizer with ingredients like olive oil, argan oil, shea butter, and lanolin. If your skin is oily, choose a moisturizer with lighter ingredients that won't sit on your skin all day. If you have facial hair, you may want to use a beard oil to keep your beard and mustache soft and healthy. If you don't moisturize any other part of your face, at least moisturize around your eyes. The skin there is more apt to start sagging over time, and using cream will keep it looking fresh. Moisturizing in this area is especially important for older men, but it's never too early to start incorporating this into your routine.  Keep in mind that using regular moisturizer for your eyes may clog your follicles and cause a stye. When you're moisturizing your eyes, gently dab the moisturizer onto your orbital bone and the skin under your eyes. The skin on our lips doesn't have as many oil glands as the rest of the face, so lips are prone to getting dry and cracked very easily. Use lip balm or a swipe of coconut oil to keep your lips in good shape. You may need to use balm more often in the winter. Facial skin can get easily damaged by sun exposure, so it's important to use sunscreen every time you go out. You can kill two birds with one stone by using a moisturizer with an spf over 15 in the winter and 30 in the summer. Don't forget to protect your lips from the sun, too. Wearing sunglasses in the summer also helps to protect the tender skin around your eyes.

Whether you use a diffuser or the Neti pot, you can use the distilled essences and fragrances (aromatherapy) of various plants to help treat your sinus infection. The essential oils used most commonly for sinus infections are:  Eucalyptus Menthol Lavender Sweet basil Oregano Rosemary Peppermint Tea tree Rose geranium Pine Clove Lemon Chamomile In a small bowl, add 1 and 1/2 cups of very warm (but not so hot that you scald your nasal tissues) distilled water, 6 tablespoons of finely ground unprocessed sea salt, and nine to 10 drops of essential oils, if you're using them. Stir the mixture well to dissolve the salt. Add the liquid to your Neti pot and let it cool before using.  If you'd like to use more than one kind of essential oil, just be sure to use an equal number of drops so that the total number of drops equals nine or 10. Sea salt protects your nasal tissues. Never use tap water or water that hasn't been filtered, distilled, or sterilized by boiling for at least one minute. . Bend forward over a sink and tilt your head to one side. Breathe through your mouth to close your nose and throat off from the solution. Insert the neti pot spout into your upper nostril and slowly pour the solution so that it runs through and out of your lower nostril. Use half of the solution.  Repeat this process with the other nostril and use the rest of the solution. Blow your nose when you're finished to get the remaining fluid out of your nose. If you don't have a Neti pot or don't feel comfortable using one, try a simple nasal saline spray, available at any pharmacy. You can also make your own at home, though you must be careful to get the right proportions of salt to water, or you could end up drying out your skin (use about one teaspoon of salt per pint of water). Use the saline spray to keep your sinuses hydrated while you are on the go.  Irrigating your sinuses using a Neti pot is more effective in treating sinusitis than a nasal spray, but it can be intimidating at first. You may want to begin with a spray and...

Whether you use a killing trap or a live trap, it's important to come back and check it every day. With a live trap, the reason for this is obvious - the beaver is stuck inside the trap and may suffer or go hungry if it's kept inside for a long period of time. However, you'll want to frequently check your killing traps as well, especially if you're interested in the beaver's pelt. The longer the beaver is left dead in the trap, the greater the effects of decomposition and the greater the chance its body will be eaten by scavengers. Additionally, on the off chance that a killing trap does not instantly kill its intended target, you'll want to be able to release the animal or put it out of its misery as soon as you can. Avoid using any sort of trap in areas that are known to be frequented by pets, especially dogs. Smaller dogs can be roughly beaver-sized and thus can be maimed or killed by beaver traps. Don't even use live traps in areas where pets roam, as, if you accidentally catch a pet, it will be your responsibility to find and notify the owner, who may be under the assumption that their pet has run away. In rural areas, people sometimes let their dogs wander within a few miles of their home. Be very conservative when setting your traps - most cautious trappers won't use traps within several miles of any residence. Otters often live in the same types of habitats as beavers - lakes and streams in wooded areas. Otters can easily spring bodygrip traps intended for beavers, so, if you're using a bodygrip trap, consider the possibility that this will happen and accommodate by sliding the trigger so that it hangs along one side of the "square", rather than in its center. Otters are slimmer than beavers, so, by doing this, you increase the chance that otters will pass harmlessly through the trap while not hampering your ability to catch beaver significantly. Obviously, don't attempt to do this when the trap is armed. Instead, do it as you're arming the trap. Though some states have open season on beavers...

Whether you use a landline or a cell phone, you can save money if you make frequent calls to France. Depending on your provider, you could purchase an international calling plan for a flat fee or a reduced per-minute rate. Ask your service provider about flat monthly fees and overage charges for calls to France. Many apps, such as Vonage, Skype, or WhatsApp, allow you to call France for a steep discount or even for free. Weigh the options of how much the app costs versus how much it will save you in charges. Shop around for the app that’s best for your calling habits. Consider how long you’re planning to talk, how often you plan to call, and whether you’re calling a landline or a cell phone. If you don’t have a smartphone, phone services through VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) allow you to call landlines, cell phones, or computers. Through VoIP providers like Vonage or Magic Jack, you can call France and many other European countries for a fraction of what you would pay through a traditional landline service. You can talk to anyone in France or anywhere else in the world free of charge over many video chat services. Be sure to check the fine print. With Skype, for example, your chat is free only if your contact is also using Skype and if you’re only talking to one other username. Three-way chats cost extra. Choose texting if you want to send short messages on an infrequent basis. If you want to let your friend in Paris know you’ve arrived in New York safely, $0.15 for a single text is the more affordable option than the $0.99 per minute a voice call could cost you.

Whether you use a notebook or loose sheets kept together in a binder, you will want to have pages set aside just for note-taking. You will divide each sheet into several sections; each section has a specific purpose. This line should be approximately one-fourth of the way up the page, about two inches from the bottom. Later, you will use this section to summarize your notes. This line should be approximately two and a half inches from the left edge of the page. This will be used as the section for reviewing your notes. This section on the right of the page should leave you plenty of space to record important points. If you will be taking a lot of notes and/or want to save time, you can find blank templates for making Cornell style notes. Print blank sheets and follow the same steps for use.

Whether you use tampons, pads, or a menstrual cup, be sure to pack plenty of supplies prior to your vacation. Overestimate the amount of products you will need as you do not want to run out. For example, if at home, you usually use four tampons a day, bring six per day. If you unexpectedly get your period on vacation, visit a drug store to purchase your supplies. Alternatively, you could ask a friend to give you some items. Some countries will not have the same supplies available that you normally use. For example, in Central Europe, it is more difficult to find tampons with applicators and in Asia, it would be hard to find tampons at all. If you expect that your period will start prior to or during your trip, bring painkillers. Ibuprofen or aspirin can reduce cramps. Naproxen sodium (e.g. Aleve) and Midol are also good options. Midol particularly works to reduce bloating in addition to relieving pain. Keep in mind that in some countries (for example, Germany) you cannot buy painkillers over-the-counter. You are, however, allowed to bring medication with you in your checked luggage. If traveling to countries that limit access to painkillers, be sure to pack enough for the duration of your period.  Follow the instructions on the medication packaging. Do not overdose. Also, talk to your doctor if you are using any other prescription medication. Although it is not medication, a disposable heat pad can be useful to have. These pads often include adhesive tape and stick to your abdominal area. If you know your period will arrive on vacation, take care to pack correct clothing. For example, add a few extra pairs of underwear to your list. Also, think about what clothing options are the most comfortable during your time of month. Flowing skirts might be preferable to tight skinny jeans. Having extra shorts to wear under your skirts might make you feel more secure as well.  Packing for comfort does not mean packing to be sloppy. Keep in mind your destination and any applicable dress codes. Waterproof underwear can...

Whether you want a few close friends or a large circle of them, college can be a great place to build lasting friendships. Reach out and meet new people. For example, if you like to hang out or party on weekends, you might study harder on weeknights. They often know the school better, and can give good advice on a number of subjects. College should be about learning, but it should also be about having a life and growing as a person. College stereotypes are of frat parties and kegs of beer, but it offers far more than that if that isn't your cup of tea. Don't feel like you have to push yourself into uncomfortable situations to make friends. Instead, look for what feels interesting to you, and find friends there.

Whether you want to accent a room in your home or decorate for a special event, you'll need to choose your colors carefully. Choose between 1 and 4 different colors that compliment each other well.  For a bold look, go with just one bright color, like an all-crimson bouquet. Mix it up with green foliage for a natural effect. Think of yourself as a painter when you're deciding which colors accent each other. Consider  referencing a color wheel to help you make your decision. You can't go wrong choosing your favorite hues. If they make you happy, you'll be happy with your flower arrangement, so don't feel constrained by traditional choices. you would like to create. Use a pencil, paper and some colored pencils to achieve a rough sketch before you visit a florist or craft store. You don't have to draw a perfect representation of what you want, but sketching it out will help you figure out what type of look you're going for.  Are you looking for a natural, hand-picked effect? You'll want a variety of colors, shapes and textures.  For a more formal arrangement, you could stick with one type of flower in classic shape. If you're decorating for a holiday, you may also want to add seasonal items such as cornucopias around Thanksgiving or snowmen cut outs that can be placed in a vase. Decide whether you will have a vertical or horizontal arrangement when you conceptualize your floral design. A vertical design often features a taller vase with flowers extending higher in the center and lower around the edges. A vertical design has a shallower vase and looks to place flowers slightly higher in the center and drape them out toward the ends. The container can make as much of a statement as the flower arrangement. Determine what size and shape you'd like the container to be. Here are a few options:  Traditional glass vases highlight the beauty of the flowers without standing out too much. Vases or boxes made of ceramic, wood, aluminum, and other materials also do quite nicely for a floral craft arrangement. Consider using...

Whether you want to save time, avoid mess, or get a close shave without irritating your skin, there are basically two types of electric shaver to use: rotary and foil. Rotary shavers utilize a revolving motion that guarantees a closer shave. This is a very popular choice because it doesn’t pull hair and provides a comfortable shave.  The three rotating mechanisms of a rotary shaver can help with hard to reach areas. Flexibility can depend on the brand so do your research to accommodate the contours of your face. Titanium blades that form part of the rotary mechanism aid in painless shaving.  A foil shaver has oscillating blades behind steel foils that lifts the hair out of the face as opposed to cutting it. These electric shavers have 3 to 4 blades and more blades means a reduced shaving time but can also be more noisy . The large head allows you to cover more area so this choice may be right for you if you want a quick and efficient shave. Foil shavers need the foil replaced every 1 -2 years depending on the toughness of your stubble. If you end up pressing harder to get a decent shave, chances are that you forgot to change the foil.  Rotary blades needs to be replaced once a year.  Skin irritation is another sign that you need to change the foil. Don’t throw away the manual as details of how to replace parts and valuable manufacturer contact information will become invaluable the longer your keep your shaver. Understand that each shaver utilizes a different method to remove hair so optimize your shave by moving in a supplementary direction.  When using a rotary shaver, make small circular motions  with the shaver head on your face but remember not to press hard or go over the same spot repeatedly to avoid irritation.  Foil shavers work best when you shave with back-and-forth strokes. Debris can easily build up, especially if you have thick facial hair so be sure to regularly clean your electric razor. Do not bang your shavers or use tools that aren't specific to cleaning shavers.  Foil shavers by Braun,...

Whether you want to surprise your mother for a birthday, Mothers' Day, or just because, quality time together trumps material gifts every time. Organizing an outing together might not be the most shocking surprise you could possible organize, but it might be the most meaningful. Put your phone away and give your mother some quality time and attention. Talk to her. Listen to her. Be with her.  Organize a quiet day together, having afternoon tea at the house and talking. Go for a walk in a nearby park and spend the evening watching family movies, or movies your mother likes. Go through old picture books. It doesn't have to be complicated. Gather photos, old family video, or other trinkets and go through them together. If you're feeling really ambitious, you could edit a family video compilation for her and have the premiere. Go for a walk around an exciting part of town your mother doesn't often visit and show her around, or go on a long hike, bike trip, or run together if your mother is the adventurous type. Take your mother to church, or to visit other relatives she may not get the chance to see often. Whatever you do, just arrange to spend the day–all day–together. An excellent way to surprise mom is to make the day less stressful by cleaning up the house, especially if it's not a chore you often undertake without being told to in advance. Even spending a little bit of time tidying up can make a big difference. It'll mean a lot.  Start in your room to make sure you get that all the way done while you have time. Take your clothes to the laundry and tidy up your belongings, putting things in the right place. Then, move to the living room and other areas to finish as much as you can before your mom sees. If you don't have time to do a serious cleaning, just organizing books, straightening pillows, and picking up can look great. Dishes, garbage, and dealing with recycling are all added bonus steps. Clean up the kitchen, then wipe down the countertops to give them a little sparkle. If you get the chance, finish...

Whether you want to write about streamlining operations or reducing costs, figure out what the key issue is. Often, the idea might be clear to you. If, however, you are trying to make a mark or troubleshoot, be observant. Before writing a proposal, be sure to check all the facts. Talk to relevant people whether co-workers, managers, or customers. Read about similar companies and see what they do differently. For example, if you think the management should change its caterer, talk first to the kitchen staff. What do they think? Have they worked in other places with different caterers? What do your co-workers think? Maybe your disgruntlement is a matter of personal taste rather than quality. To start your proposal, describe what is happening at present. Include all relevant facts (who is involved, dates, locations). In this part, do not issue judgement; rather, just explain things as they are. For example, you might write “Company X has been using Caterer Y for the past seven years. During this time, the number of available entrees has decreased from five to two. The amount of vegetarian-friendly items also has decreased with some days there being none.” After identifying the problem, write specifically what you propose to do. Lead with your key point. Show what your findings are based on your research. For example, you might write, “I recommend that Company X switch to another caterer. Company X has several other caterer options. Caterer W and Caterer Z both offer larger menus and have comparable costs to our existing provider. Furthermore, because Caterer Z offers daily vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free entrees, they could better meet the needs of our workforce. Caterer W offers fewer vegan-specific items but also could be a good choice. A survey completed in 2011 showed that 40% of our employees are vegetarian, 10% are vegan, and 2% are gluten-free.” Describe each step and its related implementation times or costs. Be clear with what you know and what remains to be seen. Consider writing numbered steps....

Whether you're a girl with a lot of makeup, or a guy who has to ask a girl for help or to do the walk of shame to the drugstore, it's important to have all of the right materials before you start covering your hickey up with makeup. Here's what you need to get the job done:  Green corrector. Purple corrector. Concealer. A make-up brush. Foundation (optional). The trick is to apply the color opposite on the color wheel to balance out and neutralize the color of the hickey. The inside of your hickey will be purple while the outside will be more red, so you'll need to use yellow to color the inside of the hickey. Apply the yellow corrector gently to the inside of the hickey, using a thin brush. Clean your brush and use it to apply the green corrector to the remaining red part of the hickey. Find a concealer that matches your skin tone and apply it over the hickey with your make-up brush. If you're not sure about which shade is best, first try using it on the other side of your neck to see if it blends in.  Once you've applied it with the brush, you can dab it with your fingers to set it into your skin. Bring the make-up with you wherever you go so you can reapply it in case it smudges during the day. To ensure that the makeup lasts as long as possible, apply a translucent powder on top of the concealer to lock it in place (if it looks too powdery, spray some setting spray on top). If you want extra coverage for your hickey, you can apply a layer of foundation to keep the hickey hidden. Apply the foundation with a foundation brush and use a sponge to blend it in further.

Whether you're a recent graduate or you've been working as a nanny for many years, you need to communicate to the parents why you are qualified for the position. Make sure to communicate how your experience is relevant to this specific job.  Even if you've never worked as a nanny before, you can probably think of some relevant experience you've had with children. Babysitting, working as a tutor, and volunteering at a summer camp all count as relevant experience.  If you have a degree in early childhood development or a related subject, talk about the kinds of classes you took and what you learned. Some parents may have no idea what your degree entails. Be sure to highlight any special skills that you have that could benefit the children. Knowledge of childhood development is a huge asset, but there are also many other skills that parents may be looking for. Be sure to mention the following skills, as well as any other unique talents that set you apart.  Second language Culinary abilities Musical or artistic talents Teaching or tutoring experience Exceptional driving record The parents want to know that you will be energetic and engaged when you're with their children, so you need to seem genuinely excited about the opportunity.  Try showing enthusiasm by talking about some of your favorite activities to do or your favorite meals to prepare. Asking questions about the children will not only make you seem more interested in the job, but it will also give you clues about what qualities the parents might be looking for in a nanny.  Find out how many children the family has and how old they are. Ask about the children's interests and activities. Find out if the children have special medical needs or behavioral challenges. Learn how the parents discipline their children and what guidelines they expect you to follow. Your answers should show that you are experienced, professional, and friendly, but they should also be true. Don't lie during an interview, even if you think it will help you.

Whether you're a teacher at a school or working in an office with many others, it's important to keep your belongings separate from others. This decreases the likelihood head lice or any other pest or illness is spread through touching jackets, hats, or bags.  If you are a teacher or building a classroom, ensure that your classroom's cloakroom or closet allows for plenty of space between each student's belongings. This might mean spacing out clothes hooks or assigning individual cubbies or boxes for students to stow away their things. Avoid hanging your jacket or storing your bag in a communal closet. Some places like restaurants, bars, and hotels offer you a coat check. Rather than checking your things, you could bring your things with you, or ask that your jacket be stored away from others. Things like hairbrushes, hats, scarves, and jackets could be placed in plastic bags when you go out in public, especially if you're sending your kids to school. This keeps the lice out and plastic bags are easy to throw away before going home. To be extra cautious, you can throw in your belongings in the freezer after coming home. Head lice cannot survive in low temperatures. Use disinfectant or soap to kill germs and prevent lice from crawling into the home. Wipe down your bag or backpack and throw the clothes you wore outside into the washing machine. It's not only important to do your part in preventing head lice from invading your home and your family, but it's also important to educate others on how to prevent and treat head lice. Urge your school or community to make head lice prevention and education available. It's as easy as making an announcement about what head lice is and how to prevent it or making flyers and directing others to resources or treatments that they can access.

Whether you're a tourist, or simply carrying a large sum of cash on your person, the last thing you want to do is draw attention to yourself. Some people draw unwanted attention without even realizing it. To remain discreet while carrying money:  don't wear fancy clothes or jewelry  be careful about checking maps  walk confidently like you know where you're going, even if you don't  cover up any visible bulges in your pockets or under your clothing  if using a secure pocket or money belt, resist the urge to repeatedly touch or check that hiding spot If you're carrying a lot of cash, it's important to be constantly aware of where you are and who is around you. If you notice someone staring or watching you, or someone who suddenly looks away when you see them, be cautious of that person. They may be planning to rob you.  Avoid high-risk, high-crime areas. You should also exercise great caution in known tourist areas.  Be extremely cautious in metro stations and on public transportation. These places are prime pick-pocketing opportunities for thieves.  If you feel someone jostle or "bump" into you, check your belongings to ensure you were not robbed.  Do not walk alone while carrying cash. If you cannot find other friends to walk with you, then it may be best to take a cab to your destination. Just be sure that the cab is a legal, marked, authorized cab. You can increase the safety of a cab ride by calling to request a cab, rather than getting into a random taxi on the street.  Remember that in spite of all precautions taken, anyone can be a victim anywhere at any time. Do not let yourself become overly confident or feel secure, as this is often the first step to letting down your guard. Counting money leaves you susceptible to a robbery, and it also gives a thief a visual clue as to how much money you're carrying. You should also avoid carrying more cash than you'll need, so try to plan ahead and know how much money you'll need.  Carry small bills and coins in a separate pocket, so you don't need to make change...

Whether you're dating a woman or not, you should treat her like a gentleman would. This doesn't mean subscribing to outdated ideas of chivalry (like, for instance, pushing in her chair for her). Rather, it means that you should extend her the respect and goodwill you would give a serious colleague. Listen to her when she talks. Respect her opinions, even if you disagree with them. Most importantly, treat her like an equal - she is.  No need to handle women with kid gloves. Many women love raunchy humor as much as men do. Making jokes (even lewd ones) with women isn't treating them disrespectfully - it's showing that you consider her enough of an equal to let your emotional guard down. Get a sense of a woman's personality first, then, if she seems game, joke away. On the other hand, avoid the use of gendered insults like "bitch," even if you're just joking. It's easy to make a bad habit of using these words and even easier to have your intentions be misunderstood. Manly men don't hurt peoples' feelings on the basis of their gender. Never, ever commit an act of violence against a woman - it's one of the least-manly things you can do. That of course does not mean that you have to allow to a woman (or anybody else)  to be violent, abusive or disrespectful toward you or anybody. Strength and violence are different things. To stop an abuse is a must, but does not necessarily need violence; use your brain power, instead. It's easy to respect your guy friends. It's much harder to respect the creep in the office who always breathes over your shoulder. A manly man does both. Manly men  never  bully or humiliate people. They also avoid participating in gossip. Anything you would scold your son for doing on the playground, you should avoid doing in the adult world.  Many times, annoying men won't even know they're annoying. If someone at the office has really bad breath, take them aside quietly and recommend some breath mints. Don't tease them in front of everyone at lunch. There's no reason to make someone suffer for...

Whether you're going to dress out a rabbit you shot while out hunting or are going to harvest a farm rabbit, you need to make sure it dies as quickly and painlessly as possible.   If you shoot the rabbit, hold the rabbit firmly by the two back feet, and use your hunting knife on the back of the neck at the base of the skull to sever the spinal cord with a quick incision. You can either remove the head completely at this point to facilitate blood draining out, or you can wait until you've started skinning.  If you're harvesting a farm rabbit, it's common to use a blunt object like a rolling pin, broomstick, or other device to strike the animal at the base of the skull, or to dislocate the animal's neck with your hand. Dislocating is easier, because it eliminates the possibility of a missed strike, common for beginners. Holding the rabbit by the hind legs with one hand, grasp the animal with your other on either side of the head, pulling both hands away from each other firmly, twisting the head up and back to dislocate the neck. The animal will become unconscious immediately if done properly. Before skinning the rabbit, it's common to remove the head with a heavy knife, laying the rabbit flat on a cutting surface and inserting the knife at the base of the skull where it meets the neck. Push through with a firm chop. Hang the rabbit from it's hindquarter, just under the hock to drain into a bucket.   You can pierce the rabbit's hind leg into the Achilles tendon to hang it upside down, just under the hock (the big part of the hind leg, like the thigh). There's some discussion about how necessary it is to bleed out a rabbit you're planning on eating. Because there's not a lot of blood to drain from a rabbit, some hunters skip this step and remove the head during the skinning process. Bleeding out will, however, result in "cleaner" looking and in some cases more tender meat if you bleed the rabbit immediately after killing it. You can dress the rabbit more or less immediately after killing it, and since it's...

Whether you're in love or just dating, there is really no wrong way to move in for a hug. So just do it! A casual touch can be used to introduce a casual hug, and an intimate touch can be used to introduce an intimate hug. Let your hand brush against his arm a few times, or allow it to linger there for a few moments. Look into his eyes, or sneak up behind him and plant one on him. If you want to give him a hug, just give him the hug. Don't overthink it, just wrap him up. In general, you'll slide both arms between his arms and his torso, connecting them around his back for a deep, close embrace. However, if you're feeling romantic, there are plenty of other ways to hug him:  Wrap one hand behind his back, just above his butt. Place the other hand around his neck so that your fingers rest where his neck meets his shoulder. Lightly grab onto the left side of his neck (his right side) with your left hand. If you're extra romantic, you can lightly tousle the back of his hair with your fingers. Place one palm lightly on his upper chest, wrapping around his waist with your other arm. As you wrap your arms around his neck or chest, press your upper body into his. Pressing your chest into his is considered a "heart to heart" hug. If you're the same height as him, you might rest your head on his shoulder. If you're shorter, turn so that you rest your cheek on his chest. Just slow down and relax. A hug is simply a chance to press close together, enjoying each other's company. If your first hug position isn't right, simply move your arms and body into a more comfortable position. If you are in a good embrace, let your hug linger until the moment passes or you feel him begin to pull away. Pressing your upper half into his can indicate romantic interest, but it is still fairly tame. Allowing your hands to roam or your legs to intertwine, however, is a great way to kick it up a notch and suggest stronger desire.  Massage his back, neck or chest lightly with your fingers to kick things up a notch. Pull his face down into a...

Whether you're in the office or out with your friends, sometimes someone will do something that makes you feel uncomfortable. Use assertive communication to not only tell them that you're uncomfortable, but to suggest an alternative.  If, for example, your co-worker keeps taking supplies from your desk without asking, don't just say, "I wish I had more pens, but someone keeps taking mine," when they are near you. This is a passive approach. Instead, confront them directly and say, "I get frustrated when you take my supplies because it inhibits my ability to do my job correctly. I'd prefer you request your own pens from now on. I can show you where the supply room is if you don't know where to get them yourself." An aggressive telemarketer or campaigner on the street can be difficult to shake. Use assertive communication to tell them what you need from a situation, and then follow through with direct action.  If a telemarketer won't stop calling, for example, stop them before they get to their sales pitch and let them know, "I know you are doing your job, but I am not interested in your product. I'd like to be removed from your list immediately. I will escalate this situation if you call me again." Then, follow through with direct action by writing down the name and number of the person and company that called you. If they call again, you can ask to speak to their manager or report the company to a overseeing body like the FCC. You can also take direct action by blocking the phone number and/or ignoring the phone call. In some situations, like asking your boss for a raise, you can proactively use assertive communication. Let that person know what you want and why you want it. Be firm, but stay open to conversation.  If you want to ask for a raise, for example, tell your boss "I'd like to discuss a salary increase. My metrics consistently outperform everyone else in the department by 30% and I want my hard work reflected in my paycheck. My goal is a 7% increase. Is this something we can make happen?"

Whether you're making a physical or digital memory book, the first thing you need to do is decide what you want your book to be about. Common memory book themes include:   Family members – Make a book about a specific loved one. In addition to photographs, you can also include things he or she wrote (like letters and postcards), drew (like pictures your child has made), or anything else that is flat enough to fit inside a book or to be scanned into a computer. You can also include documents associated with this person, such as a report card, a copy of a birth certificate or marriage license, or a birthday card he or she received. If your child is young, you can start a memory book now and add to it as he or she grows up.  Events – Weddings, birthdays, bar/bat mitzvahs, quinceañeras, graduations, and anniversaries are all popular choices when making a memory book. Holidays, like Christmas or Valentine's Day, are also common themes. If the event or special day happens annually, you can add a new page or chapter each year.  Vacations – Use your memory book to relive a fun vacation or share it with others. This is an especially good idea if you went to an exotic location and took a lot of pictures. You can also include things like your plane ticket stubs or even a pressed flower you brought home with you. If this is an annual family vacation, consider adding a new chapter each year. You can put every chapter in the same book or a different one per year.  More specific combinations – This option is especially popular for parents making a book of their child or children. They can be about one specific event, such as "Duane & Derrick's First Halloween," or one that covers a longer period of time, such as "Melissa's First Year of School" or "Becky's Birthdays from Six Through Ten." There aren't many rules for what you can include in a memory book. Just make sure whatever you add fits your chosen theme and, if you're making a physical memory book, make sure that all of your items are relatively flat and can be...

Whether you're shopping for new plugs, you just bought new plugs that you want to check before installing, or you want to check the function of your current set of spark plugs, you need to learn the appropriate gap between the two electrodes on the end of each plug.  Each vehicle's measurement will be different, though most are generally somewhere between 0.028-.06 inch. You can either look in your owner's manual or go to the auto parts store and have them look it up for you. Modified engines require smaller gap settings to account for the amount of power you're putting through the engine. General rule of thumb: the more power, the smaller the gap. There are several varieties of tools used to measure the gaps of spark plugs, some of which are more appropriate for more modern plugs, which sometimes feature delicate precious metals. Most measuring tools will also feature a flat edge typically used for bending the bottom electrode on the spark plug to adjust the gap slightly.  A coin-style gap measure is usually the cheapest option, and works by running the edge of the "coin" through the gap until you reach a point where it stops. The edge is marked like a ruler, designating the thickness of the edge at that point. This is a good tool for older plugs you want to check the efficacy of, but can also inadvertently widen the gaps as you use it. A wire coin gap works essentially the same way as the regular coin-style gap, but features different wire measures of varying lengths on the edge around the coin. A blade-style feeler gauge is an effective and versatile tool. Built like a pocket-knife, this gauge features different blades of varying widths, some with wire on the end and some without, placed in the gap to check the spacing of the electrodes. You can also use multiple blades to measure larger gaps. These are effective to use while adjusting. . If you've just pulled it out of the box, it should be in pretty good shape, but if you're checking a plug that you've been using in your car it's a good idea to clean it...

Whether you're sitting down or standing up, there's usually a chance to position yourself in such a way to hide what's going on down there.   Standing up: Try not to face to the side of anyone. A bulge in the crotch region is a lot less noticeable if you're facing someone head on than it is from the side.  Sitting down: Try casually crossing your legs. When men cross their legs, the pant material in the crotch region usually gets bunched up, offering cover to your mischievous main vain. Putting your hands in your pockets is a perfectly natural gesture, making this very popular. Put both of your hands in your pockets so as not to arouse suspicion, and gently hold the erection close to your body, trying not to move so as to tame your member into timidity. Maybe you have no pockets in your pants (although men should always have pockets in their pants), or it's impossible to reposition yourself. In this case, look for something to put over your crotch region to hide your excitement. Try covering yourself with:  A book or a magazine. Pretend to lose yourself in an interesting article (just make sure you don't pick up Cosmo or you could blow your cover) and place the book or magazine over your lap.  A table. If you're sitting down, casually move your seat up as close as possible to the table. A piece of clothing. If you've got a jacket or sweater, pretend to look for something in the jacket pocket, and then casually leave it in your lap. Basically, tuck your erection under your belt, from inside your pockets, using your hands. Warning: Only the most experienced tuckers can do this maneuver while facing a group of people. It's much better to find an excuse to be alone, or turn away from the group, and quickly do the tuck while no one can see. Tuckers with longer penises should make sure their upper garments are both opaque and securely occluding the entire glans. Again, this is only for the most experienced men, as creating a poor distraction could actually focus the attention on you, with potentially disastrous...

Whether you're spraying, painting, or dipping the pinecones in a sealing product, you'll want to cover your counter or table with newspaper. If you're using a spray sealer, it's even better to work outside. Once you have your space set up, go ahead with your chosen sealing method. Choose a non-yellowing spray varnish. Lay the pinecones on their sides, then spray them using an even coat. Wait for the pinecones to dry for 10 minutes before rotating them and spraying the other side. Let the sealer dry for at least a half hour before applying another coat.  Spray sealers come in many different finishes: matte, satin, and glossy. Choose the one that you like the best. The matte usually offers the most natural look, though. If you don't have any spray varnish, you can try using hairspray instead. Purchase a marine varnish from a hardware or home improvement store. Put on a pair of disposable gloves and hold the pinecone by the tip. Use a cheap, disposable brush with stiff bristles to apply the varnish all over the pinecone, except for the bottom. Let the varnish dry for at least 30 minutes, then hold it by its sides, and coat the bottom and tip. Leave the pinecone to dry on its side.  You can apply more than one coat of marine varnish, but you have to let the previous coat dry fully. Alternatively, you can tie some thread to the top of the pinecone, then dip it into the varnish. Lift it out, and let the excess varnish drip off. Hang the pinecone by the string to dry. Wrap some string or thin wire around the top of a pinecone. Dip the pinecone into a can of paint or varnish. Lift the pinecone out, and hold it above the can for about a minute to let the excess paint/varnish drip back. Use the string or wire to hang the pinecone someplace where it can dry.  Place a newspaper or tray under the pinecone to catch any drips of paint or varnish. Keep in mind that this method may cause the pinecones to close up again.  If the paint or varnish is too thick, thin it with water. Use 4 parts paint or varnish to 1 part water....

Whether you're thanking a friend, colleague, or a near-stranger over the phone, it can be a bit trickier to thank someone over the phone because it's harder to communicate your true feelings without face-to-face contact. But thanking someone over the phone is easy if you pay attention to a few key points:  Speak clearly. Communicating over the phone can be tricky, so make sure you enunciate your words, speak slowly enough for the person to hear you, and that you aren't calling from a place that is loud or has bad reception. Give the person your undivided attention. Though it's tempting to multitask when you're on the phone, don't call the person while you're driving home, cleaning your apartment, or watering your plants. Tell yourself that the phone call should only take a few minutes and that if you're really grateful, then that person deserves your undivided attention. Call at a good time. Make sure you're making a call at a time when the recipient isn't likely to be busy and that you're not calling too early in the morning or too late in the evening. If you're calling a person who lives far away, make sure to account for the time difference. Have the right body language. Though it may sound silly to use body language over the phone, maintaining an open posture or gesturing with your hands can help you emphasize your true feelings. If you're calling when you're laying down or using your hands to make a sandwich, you won't be able to show the person how grateful you really are. Know your audience. If you're talking to a family member or a close friend, you can be open, honest, laugh, and be more free about how grateful you are. If you're calling to thank a potential employer for interviewing you, you should still give them your attention, speak clearly, and use proper body language, but you should also keep things short and sweet. Just because you're on the phone doesn't mean you are free to ramble and be chatty; if you're thanking someone for professional reasons, then keep things professional. Sometimes,...

Whether you're trying to write, paint, or solve a problem, prompts can get you thinking. Sometimes just moving past the blank page is the hardest step, and a prompt will at least get you moving. Prompts don't have to be written. They can be visual, such as a painting or photograph, or even auditory, such as a piece of music.  For instance, maybe you are trying to paint a picture of a depressing time in your life, but you're having trouble getting started. Putting on the right song could help you get in the mood. Another example is a writing prompt, where someone else sets up a scenario or a question that you write on, such as "You find yourself in a dark room with only one window. You have a pencil in your hand and no shoes. How did you get there?" You can find writing prompts in books on writing and on writing websites. Find prompts that involve the 5 senses. Each sense may make you think different feelings or memories. That is, you may often go through your day without really noticing the things around you. You drink your morning coffee without noticing its deep flavor or walk by your office's landscape without noticing the lilies. Try to be more aware of your surroundings. When you notice more, it can spark your imagination, giving you a new perspective. If you always do the same thing, you'll get stuck in a rut. However, just trying a new technique or looking at something from a different perspective can help unlock creativity. Sometimes all it takes is literally moving yourself around the room, such as looking at a project from the floor or from above it. Other times, you may need to take a different approach to encourage your imagination to start running, such as learning a new way to paint or a different way to sew a pattern. Another way to shake things up is to have different experiences. For instance, maybe go to the symphony if you've never been or try a new food. You never know what connections your brain is going to make. That is, instead of beating your head against the wall to get a...

Whether you're using a gas or charcoal grill, you'll want it nice and hot by the time you plan to start cooking. Use the directions below to get your grill to the perfect flank steak-grilling temperature:  For gas grills: Light one burner and set it to "high". Allow to sit for several minutes (with the grill's lid closed) before cooking. If possible, leave a second burner off so that there will be space to transfer the meat to for slow-cooking after the initial sear. For charcoal grills: Pour charcoal into the bottom of the grill until the entire bottom surface is covered. If possible, push all of the charcoal to one side so that one half of the grill has no charcoal under it. This portion of the grill will be used for slow cooking after the initial sear. Light the charcoal and allow to burn freely until the flames die down and the charcoal turns mostly grey. The grill surface should be quite hot; you should not be able to hold your hand near the grill for more than a second. When meat cooks on a grill, the characteristic black and brown "sear" that creates a crispy, delicious exterior can't begin to form until the moisture on the outer layer of the meat has evaporated. Since it takes a great deal of energy to evaporate water, grilling meat that's soaking wet is not only an inefficient use of the grill's heat, but also a bad idea for those looking to cook a crispy browned steak. To eliminate the moisture from the surface of the meat, use a dry paper towel to pat it down until it's slightly damp, but not dripping. If you used a dry rub, you may not need to perform this step, as the powdered ingredients will likely have soaked up much of the moisture already and patting with a paper towel can cause the rub to come unstuck from the meat. When your grill is nice and hot, carefully use a grill brush to paint the metal bars with olive oil or vegetable oil above the burner or charcoal. Then, transfer your flank steak to the grill directly onto the spot you just applied oil to. You should hear a noticeable sizzling...

Whether you're using a new glass or one of your old favorites, it can accrue a layer of dust or dirt just sitting in storage. Make sure it's sparkly clean -- run it under soapy water and rinse it well. Allow it to adequately dry. You don't want to paint on glass that's streaky or wet. Remove any oil, dirt, soap film, or fingerprints that will mess up your paint work.  Let the glass sit to dry for about 7-10 minutes after rubbing. If you don't have rubbing alcohol, use white vinegar; it has similar cleaning properties. You want a solid 3/4" (2 cm) of your rim to be paint free. As some paint is toxic, it's important not to paint on any surface that could reach your mouth. What's more, the paint will be more likely to deteriorate if it meets drink or your lips. Make sure the tape is even. If it's not perfect, it's super easy to adjust. Use masking or painter's tape for best results.

Whether you're using a tall glass or a classic metal cup, popping it in the freezer for a few minutes will keep your milkshake frosty as you sip it. There's no need to stand around – get started on the milkshake while you wait. Using ice cream straight from the freezer can make your milkshake taste dilute, thin, or icy. You'll have much better results if you leave the ice cream out on the counter for about ten minutes, until it's soft and just beginning to melt around the edges.  On a hot day, put the ice cream in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes instead. Heating the ice cream too fast can ruin the texture. This gentle method is best. Skip this step if using frozen yogurt. Add 2  large scoops of the softened ice cream or frozen yogurt to a blender or milkshake maker. Use a large stainless steel bowl instead if you don't have a blender. Add ¼ cup (60 mL) milk for a thick milkshake, or up to a full cup (240 mL) if you prefer a thinner drink. Add ½ cup Chocolate Nesquik powder.  Whole milk makes a richer shake, while low fat or skim milk is a healthier option. For an extremely rich milkshake, also blend in 1–2 tablespoons (15–30 mL) heavy whipping cream. Crushed ice will dilute your milkshake's flavor. Use extra milk instead to thin the shake, and pop the milkshake in the freezer for a few minutes if it's too runny. If you like a thicker shake consistency, start out with 1/4 cup of milk and add more until you are satisfied with the texture. This is easiest with a blender, milkshake maker, or stick blender, on a low setting. If you don't have one of these, burn off some calories in advance with a sturdy whisk. Semi-frozen ice cream is easiest to blend with a series of short pulses, or with a sturdy fork instead of a whisk. If it still won't blend, mash it against the sides with a rubber spatula or flat spoon and try again. Taste before you pour it into the glass, so you have the option to blend in more milk (thinner) or more ice cream (thickener). Serve with a spoon or thick straw and enjoy immediately.

Whether you're writing on paper or a computer, you should first define a problem, write down your options, and then list the pros and cons for each option. Seeing your thoughts in front of you will also help you stop cycling through them in your head. Once you can't think of anything more to write, your mind has done its job, and it's time to stop thinking. If making a list still doesn't help you make a decision, don't be afraid to follow your intuition. If two or more options seem equally appealing, thinking more will not make things clearer. This is when you should listen to something deeper. Instead of lingering over your most persistent thoughts, jot down all of the things on your mind every day. At the end of one week, go over what you've written and make a note of the things that are troubling you the most. You need to deal with those first. Try to write in your diary at least a few times a week. This will help you get used to the idea of a "thinking time" and will help you sit down with your thoughts, instead of having them trouble you throughout the day. Make a list of all the things you have to do on a certain day. Unless "brooding" is on your list of priorities, this will force you to see that you have more important things to do than to sit around pondering the meaning of the universe! The quickest way to organize your thoughts is to put them into something actionable. If you're thinking that you haven't gotten enough sleep lately, make a plan for getting some Z's pronto instead of worrying about it! The list can be practical and can deal with the bigger things, like: "spend more time with my family." This may sound crazy, but picking a time every day for yourself to worry, wonder, be dreamy, and to get lost in your thoughts can help you control your thoughts in a more productive manner. If you need to, give yourself an hour, say, from 5-6:00 every day. Then, try to get the time down to 5-5:30. If an upsetting thought comes up earlier in the day when it's inconvenient to deal with it, just tell...

Whether you've been married for two years or twenty years, it can easily feel like you and your partner have fallen into a rut. Routines form because they are convenient and they make it easier to navigate your day-to-day life, but falling into ruts and routines in your relationship can slowly kill the romance without you even realizing it.  If you usually eat in most nights, try going out for a date night. If you typically make your own separate meals, try cooking a meal for your partner and eating together. Do something exciting together that you and your spouse wouldn't normally do. It doesn't have to be anything crazy, but it should push you both to have fun and get excited together. Take a romantic vacation together, or just plan a fun and exciting day together - even if it just means going to a carnival or an amusement park. When you and your spouse were dating, you probably flirted with one another all the time. So why did you stop? Most couples get comfortable with one another, which is obviously a good thing. But the downside of getting comfortable is forgetting how to turn on the charm, often because you haven't had to in several months (or even years).  Make eye contact. Smile at your partner and act giggly. Use romantic body language, and mimic your partner's body language.  Stand facing one another, avoid crossing your arms, and lean in towards one another when you speak. Physical contact is an important component of intimacy. Physical contact makes you feel desired, and it can make you feel comfortable and closer with your partner. If you're already very intimate and have a lot of physical contact, then keep doing it. If you've lost that part of your relationship, make an effort to bring it back.  Physical contact doesn't just mean sex (although many people do consider sex a healthy part of marriage). It can mean holding hands, snuggling, embracing, kissing, or any other kind of affectionate contact. Your partner probably wants physical contact as much as you do, but may be too shy or worried...

Whether you've bought it brand new or you need to unpack everything inside, making your bag lighter often starts with removing everything and deciding what you really need. Take out and set aside any old work or garbage, and look through your books and other belongings to see what is truly necessary. One piece of paper is light, but thirty or forty pieces of paper are deceptively heavy. Old work piles up, whether it's kept in neatly in folders or just thrown in the back of your bag. Go through the papers and decide what you still need. File or save any old homework or tests that you'll need in the future, then throw the rest away. Receipts, fliers and other garbage tends to accumulate throughout a backpack over time. It gets stuffed in between important things and forgotten, adding to the weight of the bag over time. Go through your bag and remove any unnecessary clutter, throwing it away if it's truly unnecessary. You may have been carrying around old library books or project binders that you completely forgot about. These add a lot of weight to your bag that you don't really need. Try to take out books as soon as you're finished with them or no longer need them for class to help keep your bag's weight down. Carrying a week (or a month's) worth of supplies can add weight and make your bag extra heavy. Think about what you actually use on a daily basis: how much paper, how many pens, how much makeup, what kind of gym supplies. Remove extra or excess amounts of these items. You'll want your heaviest items, like textbooks, packed closer to your spine. The further out you pack them, the more they'll pull your spine in that direction, causing bad posture or even injury. The more you can distribute the weight throughout your backpack, the lighter your bag will seem. Since the weight won't just be resting in one spot, your body will be carrying the load more evenly. Try to utilize all of the compartments and zipped pouches, especially those on the sides and near your shoulders.

Whether you've just gotten your tattoo or have had it for longer than you'd like, using salt to remove a tattoo is a dangerous proposition. Here's why:  Your skin has effectively two layers — the dermis, or inner part of the skin, and the epidermis, or outer layer of your skin. When you get a tattoo, the ink travels past the epidermis, or superficial layer of skin, and into the dermis. Rubbing salt onto the epidermis is easy but useless. You need to get the salt into the dermis; even if you did manage to rub away the top layer of your skin to get at the ink, it's probably not going to end well. Rubbing your tattoo with salt will give you a pretty nasty road rash. It may also cause pigmentation of the skin, wrinkling, and possibly scarring. Know that doing this procedure at home can have significant adverse consequences, and may make your tattoo look even worse. Although there is a dermatological procedure that uses salt as a slight abrasive, there is probably one glaring reason why salt is thought to be a good tattoo eraser. When you get a tattoo, you're told not to submerge your tattoo in water, especially in salt water. If you're not supposed to soak your tattoo in salt water if you want to keep it, maybe you could soak your tattoo in salt water if you didn't? That's the reasoning at least. Soaking your tattoo in salt water, in fact, will only cause the ink to disperse, run, or possibly fade. It won't cause your tattoo to magically vanish. It's likely your tattoo will look worse after you soak it in salt water if your tattoo is newly inked. If you've had your tattoo for several weeks or longer, it's likely that submerging your tattoo in salt water will have no effect. Trying DIY salt abrasion, also called salabrasion, is probably not the best idea. As mentioned earlier, you're likely to hurt yourself and do more harm than good. But there are professional procedures out there that use salabrasion, and some of them can be promising.  According to a German study in the National Institute of Health database,...

Whether your best friend embraced your romantic feelings or rejected your advances, the two of you need to figure out where your friendship stands.  Set boundaries with one another moving forward, so that you’re on the same page. For instance, if she didn’t feel the same way, you might set a boundary that you no longer hang out with her alone. You might also choose to take a break from the friendship before deciding how to move forward. Although it may be hard to see, your best friend doesn’t have a monopoly on attractiveness, humor, compassion, or intelligence. There are plenty of others in your life that possess those positive traits, too.Make an effort to notice the good qualities in others. Bonus points: tell them about the good you see in them— it’ll make both of you happier.
