Food-themed gift baskets are among the most common, and the traditional wicker basket is an appropriate fit in many cases. If you want to vary from this, however, try to stick baskets or containers that have a comforting, cozy ambiance. For example, you could stack wine and cheese items on a cheeseboard, place gourmet coffees and teas in a burlap gift sack, or arrange fruits and wines in a wooden crate. Knowing that you want to treat the recipient to a basket of delicious food is a good starting point, but “food” is too general to stand as a solid theme. Try to pick a specific type of food or common food pairing and work from there.  Popular examples can include:  Wine and cheese baskets, containing one or two bottles of wine and several blocks of cheese to accompany the wine; Gourmet tea or coffee baskets, accented with tea biscuits or coffee cake; Chocolate baskets, containing chocolate goodies in multiple forms; Fruit and nut baskets, offering several types of fresh fruit and cans of salted or flavored nuts.   Think of the receiver's favorite foods. If the receiver loves chocolate, then some type of chocolate theme is probably a good way to go. On the other hand, that same basket would be a bad choice for someone who lacks a sweet tooth. Consider the time of year. Certain seasons and holidays are associated with different types of food, and you could build a theme around that. For example, autumn is associated with pumpkin, apples, cinnamon, and caramels; winter calls to mind hot chocolate and mint. The exact combination will depend on the theme you choose and your own talents in the kitchen, as well as the amount of time you'll need to wait before delivering the basket.  If you plan to present the basket later that same day or the following day, you can probably include more fresh foods like fruits, cheeses, and homemade baked goods. These won't work if you're making the basket a week in advance, though. Opt for preserved foods, commercially prepared foods, or ready-mixes if you need to save the basket...

Foods high in fiber can help you to maintain a healthy weight and ensure you are getting enough fiber in your diet from vegetables and fruits. Go for meals packed with fresh fruits or vegetables as well as healthy sources of protein like chicken, tofu, and beans. Keep your meals low in fat so you can keep your insulin levels low and maintain a healthy weight.  Make a meal plan and go shopping at the start of the week so you have ingredients on hand to prepare meals. Focus on having a good balance of fresh produce, grains, and protein in all your meals. Try to cook at home as much as you can and reduce eating out so you are only going out to eat 1-2 times a week. Preparing your own meals will ensure you know what is in them. Omega-3 helps to keep your androgen levels low. Add foods like flaxseed, salmon, walnuts, sardines, and chia seeds to your diet to keep your omega-3 levels up. Cut fast food, prepackaged food, sweets, and candy out of your diet to keep your carbohydrate and sugar levels down. Eating foods high in refined carbohydrates and sugars can cause your insulin levels to spike and increase your androgen levels. Cutting out these foods can also help you to maintain a healthy weight, which can then improve your androgen levels. 45 minutes a day, 5 days a week. Maintaining a healthy weight and staying active can help to keep your androgen levels down and prevent the development of polycystic ovary syndrome. Schedule in regular workouts once a day so you can stay fit. Try walking or biking to work. Take up swimming or sign up for a fitness class so you are physically active several times a week. A combination of strength training and cardio exercises are ideal for maintaining a healthy weight and staying active.

Foods laden with these two ingredients can mess with your sense of taste. They mask subtler flavors and make it more difficult to pick up on the taste of your food. When you first cut back on salt and sugar, you might feel that your food lacks flavor, but after a week or two you'll begin to notice the complex flavors you were missing before.  Try reducing salt and sugar by 1/3 or 1/2 in all of your recipes, including your baking recipes. You could also substitute sugar with a less intense sweetener, like honey. There's no need to cut salt entirely. A little salt can actually enhance the flavor of food. It's when you pour it on everything that it starts dulling your sense of taste. Processed foods are often filled with sodium and sugar, so that's one good reason to avoid them. They also often contain chemicals and artificial ingredients that can mess with your sense of taste. Eating sweet and spicy chicken tenders from a fast food joint is going to make a homemade version taste dull by comparison, since you'll be used to tasting a burst of chemically-enhanced flavors. Retrain your taste buds to pick up on the subtleties of natural flavors by avoiding foods that are processed and combined with chemicals.  Snack foods like chips, candy and sodas are designed to be flavor bombs that tap into your brain's pleasure center and stimulate cravings. Reach instead for homemade popcorn sprinkled with salt and pepper, or homemade soda sweetened with fruit juice. It might be hard to make the switch at first, but eventually you'll be able to enjoy natural flavors more than ever. Stimulate your taste buds by mixing things up in your diet. If you tend to eat bland meals, your ability to taste may deteriorate. Use herbs and spices you don't normally use. Steam your vegetables instead of boiling them. Choose foods with different textures and colors, so that every meal is a banquet of new tastes for your tongue. Fat makes food taste better, and enhances other flavors. Consider a bowl of steamed broccoli: it's fine on its own,...

Foods rich in dietary fiber help you control your hunger and lose weight in a number of ways.  High fiber foods have a higher "chew factor."  Put simply, they take longer to eat, increasing your sense of satisfaction. Foods that are high in fiber take longer to exit your digestive tract.  This means you feel fuller longer. Foods containing soluble fiber such as oatmeal and beans help to stabilize your blood sugar over the course of the day.  This means you don't feel as hungry. Fiber also helps to lower cholesterol in some individuals and bulk stool for better digestive health. Dietary fiber is found in a wide variety of foods, so adding this important element to your diet may be easier than you imagine.  Try high-fiber cereals, beans, vegetables, nuts and seeds, and fruits. While your body functions best on a high fiber diet, if you haven't previously been eating much fiber it will need time to adjust.  Start by introducing one high fiber element and then continue to improve your diet incrementally.  You may replace your low-in-fiber corn flakes with a raisin bran cereal, for example, and then wait a few days before introducing salad with your lunch.

Foods rich in vitamins A, C, and E are vital for good vision. Eating plenty of food rich in these three vitamins is a great first step for sharpening your ability to see. You should also strive to eat foods rich in beta-carotene, lutein and zeaxanthin, since these antioxidants protect the eyes from sun damage.  Eat dark leafy greens, pumpkin, sweet potatoes, carrots, and peppers. Blueberries, grapes, garlic, onions, and shallots also contain antioxidants that protect your eyes. Foods with DHA, a fatty acid, are also essential for healthy eyes. Eat salmon, sardines, cod, and mackerel. Having to strain to see what you're doing can hurt your vision over time. Invest in good lighting in your office and home workspaces to avoid hurting your eyes. It's very important to get up and look outside, so that your eyes don't get strained from staring up close at the blinking lights on your computer. Every hour or so, stand up and look out the window. Gaze at an object several miles away, if possible. Keep looking until your eyes adjust to the view. Having dry eyes can cause your vision to look blurry. Drink at least 8 glasses of water every day. If you wear contacts, be sure to clean them properly and change them frequently. Use saline drops as tear replacements if you have trouble producing your own tears. You can sharpen your vision by performing a few simple exercises on a daily basis. Do them when your eyes feel a little tired and you need a break from whatever task is at hand.  Roll your eyes around. Look up, then to the side, then down, then to the other side. Repeat ten times.  Focus on an object. Hold it close to your face, then move it slowly backward, keeping your eyes focused on the item. Move it close to your face again, maintaining focus. Repeat 10 times. Test your peripheral vision. Stand facing a wall, staring straight ahead. Try to identify what is on either side of you using your peripheral vision. Move closer to the wall and keep using your peripheral vision to see from side to side. Continue until your...

Foods that are processed and contain lots of preservatives, fats and cholesterol can cause the liver to become congested and clogged with fat residue. Clean out your liver by avoiding processed or fatty foods to allow the liver to unblock itself and regenerate cells.  Avoid fast food. In particular, try to avoid deep fried food or preserved meat (such as sausage, bacon, corned beef, etc.) Avoid bad fats. Fatty red meat, deep fried food, and processed fats should all be avoided, as they can clog up your liver. Processed fats include margarine, shortening, and hydrogenated oils. Avoid artificial sweeteners, colorings, and preservatives. It is best to go the natural route when cleansing your liver. Certain vegetables contain nutrients like beta carotene that stimulate liver cells and protect the liver from toxins. Dark, leafy greens like spinach encourage cell growth and stimulate the liver, while beets protect bile ducts in the liver from toxin damage. Aim for 5 servings of vegetables daily and include those that contain liver-aiding nutrients. Greens that promote liver health include dandelion greens, bitter gourd, arugula, mustard greens, chicory and spinach. Garlic has sulfur-containing compounds that activate liver enzymes that work to flush out any toxins that might be in your system. Garlic also contains allicin and selenium, two nutrients that protect the liver from damages caused by toxins. These two nutrients also aid in the detoxification process. If you can’t stand the taste of garlic because you simply don’t like it (or you’re a vampire) you can purchase garlic supplements at your local health store. Grapefruit is rich in vitamin C and antioxidants, both of which promote a healthy liver cleanse. Grapefruit boosts detoxification enzymes in the liver and has a flavonoid compound known as naringenin which causes the liver to burn fat rather than store it. Be careful however, because large amounts of grapefruit can inhibit a liver enzyme called cytochrome P450, which can affect the way certain foods and...

Foods that are safe for humans can be deadly to dogs. Products like xylitol are especially dangerous for dogs. This is present in sugar-free foods and tooth care products. Other toxic foods include bread dough, chocolate, avocados, alcohol, grapes, raisins, onions, garlic, and other foods. Never give your dog human medication unless you have checked with your veterinarian. These medications can be toxic to dogs and they may make illnesses worse. Always monitor your dog when he is outside. Keep potentially toxic substances out of his reach.  These can include pesticides, antifreeze, fertilizers, prescription medications, insecticides and other items. These items can be poisonous and potentially lethal to a dog.

Foods that lack nutrition such as fast-food meals, and vending-machine snacks may be convenient, but can zap your brain and body of energy while studying. Fried foods and foods high in processed sugars are especially bad. Stick to eating healthy snacks and meals to stay energetic and alert. Limit caffeine intake, too. Caffeine offers temporary effects as a stimulant, and can cause you to feel more tired after its effects wear off. Limit yourself to just one or two cups of coffee or tea, and rely on healthy food, exercise, and quick power naps for a burst of energy. Short power naps can help you refresh, but naps that last longer than 20 minutes can make you feel more tired, sluggish, and unmotivated. Set an alarm at all times when taking naps to ensure you don’t go over the limit. For prolonged study sessions requiring more than one break (e.g., a four-hour study session in which you’ll take three breaks), limit the napping to one break only and try to balance it out by exercising for a few minutes during one of your other breaks. Avoid spending time on your computer, mobile device, or television during breaks. Browsing social media, playing video games, and watching television may seem like activities that can help you relax; however, these activities can hinder your productivity and make you feel tired. Stick to doing activities that don’t require you to look at screens on your break. Staring at the artificially lit screen can wear out your eyes, making them feel tired and tiring out your brain as an eventual result. If you need to socialize during your break, skip the texting and opt for a phone call, instead. No matter what you do during your study break, remember: this is supposed to be a break! You won’t be able to effectively rest and recharge your mind if you’re still fixated on the material you were studying, so make sure that the activities you choose to do over your breaks are engaging enough to distract you, and avoid mulling over the material you just finished or the material you’re about to start on.

Foods with lots of sugar can cause acne. Numerous studies have found that low-glycemic index foods can help reduce acne.  Low-glycemic index (GI) foods release sugars into your blood more slowly. Low GI foods include:  Most vegetables Most fruit — Mango, banana, papaya, pineapple, raisins, and figs have medium GI Brown rice, barley, and whole grain pasta Bran cereals, rolled oats Whole wheat, whole grain breads Nuts Legumes and beans Yogurt Vitamin A has been found to boost your immune system. It also acts as a natural antioxidant. You can take a supplement or get Vitamin A through your diet.  Vegetables are high in Vitamin A. Try dark leafy greens, carrots, broccoli, red peppers, summer squash, and pumpkin. Eat fruit like cantaloupe, mangoes, and apricots. Legumes have a good amount of Vitamin A. Meat, especially liver, is a good source of Vitamin A. Omega-3 fatty acids are supposed to help control the production of oil. Omega-3 fatty acids are most commonly found in food: fish oils and fish, such as salmon, sardines, mackerel, whitefish, and shad; nuts, like butternuts and walnuts; seeds, like flaxseeds, flaxseed oil, and chia seeds; and avocados. You can also take a supplement. Vitamin D has many benefits for the skin. It helps boost the immune system, reduces inflammation, acts as an anti-microbial, and reduces oil production.  The best place to get Vitamin D is from the sun. Go outside and sit in the sun for about 10 to 20 minutes. If your skin is darker, spend more time in the sun. You can get Vitamin D through foods. One of the best places to get Vitamin D is through fish, like salmon, tuna, mackerel, and cod liver oil. You can also eat eggs, mushrooms, and oysters. Many foods are also fortified with vitamin D, like milk and cereals. Go easy on the milk because it can cause more acne. You can also take a supplement. Garlic is thought to have antibacterial, antioxidant, antiviral and anti-fungal properties and may be helpful in preventing acne. Garlic should be consumed raw, if possible, to receive the...

Foot blisters should be covered to reduce irritation and cut back on the risk of infection. Cover your blister with a soft dressing, like gauze or a loose bandage. If the blister is very sore, cut your dressing into a donut shape and place it around the blister to avoid putting pressure directly on it. Your dressing should be changed each day. Always wash your hands before touching the dressing and the area around the blister. Antibiotic ointment helps prevent infections in a blister. You can buy antibiotic ointment at a pharmacy. Apply it to the blister as directed, especially before you put on your shoes or socks. Just petroleum jelly may also be used. Remember to wash your hands thoroughly before touching the blister. Friction can make a blister worse and increase pain. In order to reduce friction on a foot blister, pick up a powder designed for your feet at a local pharmacy. Pour it into your socks before putting on your shoes to reduce pain. Not all powders work for everyone. If a powder causes your blister to become irritated, stop using it. Take extra precautions to keep your feet comfortable while a blister is healing. Wear an extra pair of socks and loose-fitting shoes as the blister persists. This will cut back on pain and help the blister heal.  You should also try to stay off your feet as much as possible while the blister is healing. Try changing your socks twice a day to help decrease the possibility of blisters, usually cotton socks are better than polyester. Unless a blister becomes extremely painful, it's best not to drain it yourself. This can increase your likelihood of developing an infection. Let the blister's skin peel on its own. Avoid touching or irritating the blister to prevent it from popping prematurely. Use a moleskin over the blister to protect it if you must walk on it.

For 2 teams or players, each should get 6 bolas to throw (if you bought 24 golf balls) and each should use a different-colored bola. This can be as far away as you'd like.  For official ladder golf, it's 15 feet (4.6 m). That is, Team 1 will throw 3 bolas, then Team 2 will throw 3 bolas. The usual ladder golf scoring is as follows, though you can adjust it however you want:  Top rung = 3 points Middle rung = 2 points Bottom rung = 1 points If you can unseat the other team's bola from a rung, then their points are deducted for that throw. The first team to score 21 points without going over wins. To make the game move more quickly for younger players, bump up the point value of each rung by 1 point. You could also move the throw line closer to the ladder.

For 3-7 days, track when, what, and how much you drink, and when and how much you urinate. After several days, you’ll likely start to notice clear patterns to your urination habits. Ideally, you should use a collection cup to record how much you urinate each time. Alternatively, you can just estimate the amount as “a lot,” “average,” and “a little.” After you’ve kept track of when you usually urinate, build a schedule around this data. To start out, try to set up the schedule so that you urinate every 2 to 2.5 hours during the daytime.  For example, schedule a “pee break” when you wake up (6:30 am), then when you arrive at work (9:00 am), then right before your lunch break (11:30 am), and so on. Do your best to stick to your schedule. Waiting 5-15 minutes can help stretch your bladder so that, over time, it can hold more urine. If you really need to go, however, just go. If you start your schedule by urinating every 2 hours, move to 2.25 hours between restroom visits the next week, then 2.5 hours the week after that. Your end goal should be to urinate every 3-4 hours. While the average adult urinates every 3-4 hours, this may not be manageable for you. Stretch out your pee breaks slowly, and stop when you seem to have reached your limit. To practice, start urinating, then make yourself stop the stream of urine by contracting your muscles. These are the muscles of your pelvic floor. Once you know what it feels like to contract the pelvic floor muscles, you can do Kegel exercises at other times throughout your day.  Try doing Kegel exercises during commercials while watching your favorite show, sitting at your desk, lying down, or filling up your car with gasoline—you can do them at almost any time, really. Try to do these exercises at least 3 times a day and at least 3-4 days a week. If you continue to need to urinate frequently despite your efforts to retrain your bladder, visit your doctor for a checkup. If you have to pee frequently and urgently, you may have an over-active bladder (OAB), which is a rather...

For 95% of meals, you'll probably just be dealing with a knife, fork and spoon. But for those fancy occasions, you may see a few more pieces and wonder what the heck you should be doing. Here's a rough outline:  A four-piece setting is a knife, a salad fork, a place fork (main dish), a place knife, and a teaspoon for coffee. The salad fork will be on the outside and smaller than your place fork. A five-piece setting is all that and a soup spoon. The soup spoon will be much larger than your coffee teaspoon. A six-piece setting is a first-course fork and knife (on the outside), main course fork and knife, and a dessert/salad fork and coffee teaspoon. Those last two will be the small ones. A seven-piece setting is all that and a soup spoon. The soup spoon will be much larger than your coffee teaspoon and isn't a knife or a fork.  If you ever see a small fork on your right (forks generally never go on the right), it's an oyster fork. Utensils are generally placed in the order of their use. When in doubt, start from the outside and work your way in. There are two different ways to signify to your waiter that you aren't finished:  European style: Cross your knife and fork on your plate, fork over knife, tines facing down. The two should form an upside-down "V." American style: The knife goes near the top of your plate, blade at 12 o'clock, handle at 3 o'clock. The fork is placed tines upward, just at a slight angle from your body.

For Pilates, you want stretchy, breathable fabrics and comfortable clothes that allow you to move freely. At the same time, you don't want anything too loose or too long that you could get caught in or trip on. Popular clothing choices include:  Tank tops and tight t-shirts Yoga pants Shorts or capris-length pants in a spandex-type material Yoga mats aren't just for toting around and looking hip! They actually provide some protection for your bones and joints during floor exercises, and the foam surface provides grip, making it easier to hold poses, and preventing you from injuring yourself or pulling a muscle. To do Pilates mat exercises, you need a large open space and a flat surface. A living room or bedroom will work if you can move some lighter furniture around. Make sure you have enough room to:  Lie down on your back and extend your arms and legs out 90 degrees to the sides.  Stand up and stretch your arms to the ceiling without touching the ceiling. Lie down on your back in the same position (legs stretched out toward one wall and arms stretched out toward the other). A major part of Pilates is learning the controlled breathing, which helps you concentrate, oxygenates the blood, and helps you coordinate your movements. Proper breathing should be practiced throughout the entire workout. To breathe properly for Pilates:  Lie flat on your back with your neck long and relaxed. Place one hand on your ribs and one on your lower abs. Inhale deeply through your nose, pushing air into your abdominals and filling your ribcage. Exhale through the mouth and push the air out by contracting your abdominal muscles. Continue inhaling and exhaling in this way. Along with proper breathing, some of the main tenets of Pilates are being able to center yourself (which helps with relaxation), concentrating your full attention on each motion and controlling every movement, and being aware of proper body alignment and striving to maintain it. Not only will you get a better workout by focusing on these things, but you'll also...

For Windows, you will need to download and install an SSH client program. The most popular one is Cygwin, which is available for free from the developer’s website. Download and install it like you would any other program. Another popular free program is PuTTY.  During the Cygwin installation, you must choose to install OpenSSH from the Net section. Linux and Mac OS X come with SSH already installed on the system. This is because SSH is a UNIX system, and Linux and OS X are derived from UNIX. If you have Windows 10 with the Anniversary Update, you can install the Windows Subsystem for Linux which comes with SSH preinstalled. Open the terminal program that is installed by Cygwin, or Bash on Ubuntu on Windows for Windows 10, or open the Terminal in OS X or Linux. SSH uses the terminal interface to interact with other computers. There is no graphical interface for SSH, so you will need to get comfortable typing in commands. Before you dive into creating secure keys and moving files, you’ll want to test that SSH is properly configured on your computer as well as the system you are connecting to. Enter the following command, replacing <username> with your username on the remote computer, and <remote> with the address for the remote computer or server:  $ ssh <username>@<remote> If you want to specify a port, add -p 0000, (replace 0000 with the desired port number). You will be asked for your password once the connection is established. You will not see the cursor move or any characters input when you type your password. If this step fails, then either SSH is configured incorrectly on your computer or the remote computer is not accepting SSH connections.

For a basic cuff, you will need several feet of an elastic string, a selection of pony beads, and a pair of scissors. Although pony beads are classic for making a traditional kandi cuff, you can use any type of beads as long as the hole is large enough to fit your string through twice. Depending on how large your wrist is and how wide you want your cuff to be, you will have to use varying amounts of string. Wrap the string around your wrist to get a general measurement, and then multiply this length 5-6 times over. Cut the string  at this length; if you run out of string during the beading process, you can always cut and tie on a bit more. Tie a knot at the end of your string (leaving a small tail), and begin sliding on beads. Using about 25-30 beads is standard, but you'll just want enough so that the cuff will be big enough to slide on and off your wrist without being too loose. Pull the string and beads taut so that they are all lined up tight against the knot at the end of the string. Tie the short knotted end with the long loose end in a secure knot. Cut off the excess string from the short end, but leave the long end of the string intact.. The second row is a bit slower-going than the first, because the process involves adding a single bead and then weaving the string through the previous row. To bead the second row, string one bead on the long end of the string, and then slide the string through the bead directly under and next to the bead you’re working with. Add another bead, and slide the string through the bead next/under it on the first row. Continue this process all the way around, until you reach your starting point.Add one bead to the string, then thread the string over the first bead and through the second bead of the first row. This is how you weave the rows together. Because you’re skipping beads in the first row in order to weave the second row, your cuff will appear zig-zag with only two rows completed.

For a blonde shade, use cassia powder with water or citrus juice. For strawberry blonde, add henna. Use pure cassia powder for blonde, or 80% cassia powder and 20% henna powder for strawberry blonde. Use water to transform the powder into a paste, or if you want an extra lightening effect, orange or lemon juice. Add liquid to the powder a little at a time until its consistency is similar to yogurt. Put the mixture in the refrigerator and let it sit for twelve hours.  Use cassia obovata for blonde or gray hair. If you have gray hairs but the rest of your hair is darker than blonde, cassia obovata alone will only brighten and condition your darker hair, not lighten it to blonde. Use one box (100 grams) of cassia powder for short hair. Use two to three boxes (200-300 grams) of cassia powder for shoulder-length hair. Use four to five boxes (400-500 grams) of cassia powder for long hair. Mix into henna powder three teaspoons of amla powder, one teaspoon of coffee powder, and a little bit of curd or plain yogurt. Stir the ingredients well. Slowly add one to two cups of hot water (not boiling) to the henna paste in a bowl until the paste is thick, not runny. Mix the contents. Close the bowl with a lid or tight plastic wrap. Let it sit for twelve hours to twenty-four hours, unrefrigerated before using it on your hair.  Amla (Indian gooseberry) is nondrying and adds coolness to the red so that it is not quite so bright. You can omit the amla if you want a very vibrant orange-red. Amla volumizes hair as well as enhances texture and curls. Use 100 grams of henna powder for hair up to medium length, or 200 grams of henna for long hair. Henna can be drying, so you may want to add a conditioner to the paste the next morning, such as two to three tablespoons of olive oil and 1/5 cup moisturizing conditioner. Once henna paste has sat for twelve to twenty-four hours, mix in indigo powder well. If the paste is not the consistency of thick yogurt, add warm water little by little until you achieve the right texture. Let the...

For a booklet, especially a professional type booklet, you want to make sure that you're only giving a quick overview about the subject. You want to inform your reader, educate, and persuade them quickly.  Something like a booklet about a town should give some general historical information, a map of the town with the important landmarks marked, and telephone numbers for things like taxis or the visitor information center. A booklet could also be something like a leave-behind after a meeting to remind the people at the meeting what they heard, or it could provide information that responds to some sort of query (if you have a specific product, this gives a potential customer the basics of it). There's also the type of booklet that is made for people to pick up and peruse when they're standing in line. A booklet of this sort is going to need to look catchy to get people's attention. People like images, there is no getting around that. When you're picking what images you want to put in your booklet, keep a couple things in mind. You want the images to jump off the page, because you want to capture people's attention. You also want the images to pertain to the purpose of your booklet.  For example: you might want to create an informational booklet about your Alaskan rafting company. On the front you would want to have a color photograph that showcases the best your company has to offer (some tourists in a raft sighting a bear, for instance). If you can't print in color (which is preferred) make sure that your images look good in black and white. You want to get down the very basics for your reader, whether it's tourists in your town, potential customers, or business associates. Pages that are packed with massive blocks of text are not going to entice your reader. Break information up with headlines and sub-headlines. Information is more easily digestible when broken up into smaller chunks that are properly labeled. This may seem like a small thing, but it makes a difference to the quality of your booklet....

For a business, this means collecting inflow as near as possible to when it's recorded. Deposit checks daily, send invoices to customers within two days, and collect receivables within two days. Take advantage of any cash discounts available to you.  Get ahead of yourself: use pre-numbered cash receipts, and account for them all. For disbursements, use pre-numbered checks. For the individual, keep close track of all your expenses. Save your receipts, and visit your bank account frequently. Keep money set aside for unexpected emergency expenses, as well as unexpected opportunities for expansion. Anticipate shifts in payroll, debt payments, and the occasional large purchase. Put money aside every month to meet these expenses, as they will continue to arise.  If most of your extra cashflow is tied up in investments, make sure there are ways to free some up in an emergency. Establish credit with your bank for moments of cash flow difficulty. Review your outflow each month for any unnecessary or extravagant expense. In times of low inflow, review your discretionary spending, rent, capital costs, and payroll. Delay nonessential improvements and large equipment purchases until inflow has increased. Cut hours during non-crucial moments, and lay off anyone who is unnecessary or not pulling his or her weight.  If you pay rent, negotiate with your landlord for a lease that will help you stay where you are. Individuals may want to follow simple cost-cutting practices, such as cooking at home rather than eating out. Plan your meals for the week over the weekend, and get all your groceries in one or two trips. Cook a large amount of two or three things you really like, and enjoy the leftovers. Businesses and individuals should avoid impulse purchases. Keep good stock of what you have and what you need. Wait 48 hours before making an unplanned purchase, and question any purchasing impulse that falls outside of your anticipated needs.

For a charcoal grill, heap the coals to the side so you have a hot area and a warm area. For a gas grill, set the temperature to medium heat: 325° F (160° C). Lightly brush the grill grate with vegetable oil. With a small brush or paper towel, lightly apply mayonnaise onto both sides of the salmon. You may use olive oil, if you prefer. Place the salmon on the warm part of the grill. The mayonnaise keeps the fish from sticking, and will burn off. Before you flip it, coat the visible side of the salmon with more mayonnaise so it will not stick.  Place the salmon on the hottest part of the grill to get grill marks on it—it only takes a minute or so on each side.

For a cleansing bath that can remove toxins from your body, soak in Epsom salts. Epsom salts contain magnesium and sulfate that remove heavy metals from the body and speed up the skin's recovery time. Dissolve 1 to 3 cups (240 to 720 g) of Epsom salts in a hot bath and soak in it for 10 to 40 minutes. Pour up to 2 cups of (480 g) of Epsom salts into a hot bath and swirl the water to dissolve the salt. Soak your sore muscles in the water for at least 15 to 20 minutes. The magnesium in the Epsom salts can relax your muscles. Consider adding up to 15 drops of essential oils known for soothing muscles. These include wintergreen, basil, bergamot, rosemary, lavender, peppermint, and Douglas fir. If you're dealing with skin issues like psoriasis, rashes, or eczema, soak in an Epsom salt bath. The magnesium in the salts can reduce inflammation and relieve itching. Run a full bath and dissolve 1 to 3 cups (240 to 720 g) of Epsom salts in it. Soak the irritated skin for at least 20 minutes to get the full benefits. Always moisturize your skin after getting out of the bath to keep your skin hydrated. Measure 1 cup (240 g) of Dead Sea salt into a bowl and stir in 1/3 cup (80 ml) to 1/2 cup (160 ml) of your favorite oil (such as sweet almond, coconut, grapeseed, or olive). Add 12 drops of essential oils and 1 teaspoon (5 ml) of vitamin E oil. Stir the mixture into a thick paste that you can scrub over your skin when you shower. Just rinse off the mixture and enjoy softer skin. You can store the shower scrub in an airtight plastic container. Ensure that water doesn't get into the container when you're opening it in the shower or you may introduce bacteria into the scrub. If you don't have the time or space to run a full bath, fill a large basin three-quarters full of hot water. Stir in 1/2 cup (120 g) of Epsom salts until they're dissolved. Sit down and place your feet into the foot bath. Soak your feet for 10 minutes. Avoid soaking your feet in bath salts if you have diabetes. Soaking your feet can dry out your feet and...

For a close-up shot, the best depth of field is shallow. Set your camera to camera’s aperture number to between f/5.6 and f/11. The aperture number you choose will depend on what details of the eye you want to highlight in your photograph. Play around with the aperture to see how the aperture setting changes your shots. The eye is constantly moving, which can blur your shot. For a sharper image, set your shutter speed to at 1/100th of a second or faster. Using a tripod will also allow you to set a higher shutter speed. Increasing your ISO value allows you to take photographs in low-light conditions, but will make your photo grainy. If you’re taking your photo in a well-lit area, keep your ISO value as low as possible. Autofocus may not focus on the details you want to focus on, so it is best to just turn it off and focus the shot yourself. To manually focus your lens, turn your focus ring so that everything is out of focus. Then turn it back the other way until the details you want to highlight in your shot are in focus. Avoid using your camera’s flash or shining other bright lights at your subject’s eyes. Bright light can damage their eyes, and can cause your subject to squint, interfering with your photograph. It’s impossible to know what combination of viewpoint, composition, focus, and depth of field will produce the best shot. So try as many combinations as you can. When taking a close-up shot, the small changes you make can give you very different photos.

For a completely secure patch, use a sewing machine or a needle and thread to secure the patch to the fabric. This greatly reduces the chances that the patch will fall off.  Choose a thread that matches the patch. Don't attempt to sew around the edge of printable paper patches. Iron-on patches are meant to be permanent, but they do become loosened over time. Take care not to let the article get too dirty, since washing it may cause the patch to start coming off. If you do need to wash the item, hand wash it using cold water. Allow it to air dry.

For a delicious outer "sear" on your kebabs, it's important to have a nice hot grill before you place your kebabs on it. For gas grills, this is easy - simply set the grill's burner(s) to a medium level, close the grill, and allow it to heat up. For charcoal grills, this is a little trickier - you'll want to light the charcoal and allow it to blaze freely until the flames die down and the briquettes ash over and emanate an orange glow. This can take 30 minutes or longer. Generally, for about a pound of meat, you'll want to use roughly 30 charcoal briquettes. If your grill is hot, you should immediately begin to hear a sizzling sound. As you lay your kebabs on the grill, leave space between each to ensure even cooking. To prevent your kebabs from sticking to the grill, it's a wise idea to paint the grilling surface with vegetable or olive oil immediately before laying down your kebabs. Use a grilling brush for safety's sake - don't attempt to paint a hot grill with a paper towel or similar improvised tools. Be sure that all the sides of every kabob touch the grill - not only does this ensure done-ness, but also gives the meat (if you're using any) an all-over crisp exterior. As a general rule, most kebabs will require approximately 10-15 minutes to cook, which is 2.5-3.75 minutes for each of the 4 sides. For vegetarian kebabs, you won't need to worry about the meat being done, so, instead, turn as desired to give the vegetables and fruits a pleasing brown or black exterior and a softened texture. Remove one of the kebabs from the grill. If using meat, cut into a piece of meat to check if it's done or not. Look for the classic signs of done-ness - clear juices, lack of a pink interior, ease of cutting. If the meat is very pink on the inside, bleeds reddish juices, or has an inside that resists cutting, it needs to cook longer. For more information on telling whether a piece of meat is done or not, see:  How to Check if Steak Is Done Using the Finger Test How to Test Whether a Chicken is Cooked How to Know if...

For a fantastic fall treat, try flavoring your caramel with apple. Using either the stovetop or microwave method, alter the recipe as follows:  Reduce the half and half to 1/4 cup At the same time as you add the salt and vanilla, add 1/4 cup apple cider and 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar Simply replace the vanilla in your caramel recipe of choice with the same amount of bourbon. The deep amber bourbon complements the flavor of the sweet caramel perfectly, and it's delicious paired with vanilla ice cream. This is a popular variation on caramel sauce that takes the flavor up a notch. Instead of adding just a pinch of salt, add a teaspoon of salt for every cup of sugar you use. There's something about the sweet-and-salty flavor combination that makes it taste that much better. Everything's better with a little kick, right? To give your caramel sauce a memorable twist, add 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon at the same time you add the salt.

For a formal letter, you’ll need to include a header with your name and address as well as the name and address of the recipient, and the date. You should align your name and address on the left, followed by one line break, then align the recipient’s name and address on the right side of the page. Include an additional line break, then the date, then begin to address the recipient. The format for both your info and that of the recipient should appear as follows: name (line one), house number and street address (line two), postal code and city name (line three), country name (line four). If you are writing a letter to France, unless it is to a close personal friend, you should follow the guidelines for formal letter writing. You should address the person by their official title – like Monsieur le Directeur or Madame la Directrice.  The French word “cher” is the equivalent of the English “dear.” You can say “Cher Monsieur” for a man, or “Chère Madame” for a female addressee. If you are writing to more than one person, you can say “Chers Messieurs et Mesdames” – which means “Dear Sirs and Madames.” If you don’t know the name(s) of the recipients, or you are writing to a group of sorts, you may use “À qui de droit,” which is the French equivalent of “To whom it may concern.” And remember that if you are writing the letter in French, you should always use the formal “vous,” rather than the informal “tu.” Remember that the French are a bit more formal than some English-speaking countries, so a letter to France requires a somewhat formal closing. Be sure to choose a closing remark that fits with the situation.  For a very formal or professional situation, you can write “Je vous prie d’agréer, repeat the title as you started your letter, l’expression de mes salutations distinguées.” For a slightly less formal, but still professional, situation, you can write “Cordialement” (like “Cordially”), or “Bien à vous” (“yours truly”). For a letter to friends or family members, you can write “Affectueusement” (like “Fondly”)...

For a fresher, more flavorful coffee, you should buy fresh coffee beans and grind them yourself, rather than buying pre-ground coffee. A coffee's flavor comes from delicate flavor compounds within the cells of the coffee bean. When ground, the coffee bean's interior is exposed to the air and, over time, will react with it, causing the coffee to lose some of its aroma.  Be sure to store your coffee beans in an air-tight container. Coffee has odor-absorbing properties - that's why coffee grounds can substitute for baking soda in the fridge. Unfortunately, this also means that if your coffee isn't kept sealed in an air-tight container, you may have garlic-y coffee. Coffee aficionados disagree on whether to store coffee beans at low temperatures. Some recommend keeping coffee beans in the fridge if they will be used within a week and transferring any beans that won't be used for a few weeks to the freezer. Others prefer simply to keep them in a cool, dark place. Different coffee brewing methods may require coarser or thicker grinds for optimum flavor. Because ground beans exchange their flavor compounds with water, changing the coarseness (and thus the overall surface area that can be touched by water) of the grounds can affect the final flavor. Generally, the more time that the brewing method requires the coffee and water to be in contact with each other, the coarser the grind. For normal "drip" coffee makers as described in Part One above, a medium grind (like you'll find for most pre-ground coffee) is usually fine. If you're using a more exotic brewing method like a french press or an aeropress, consider consulting a coarseness chart like the one available here: http://www.coffeeconfidential.org/grinding/ground-coffee/ . For brewing processes, water should be around 195–205 °F (91–96 °C), or just below boiling. Colder water won't extract enough flavor from the coffee beans, while hotter water can scald the coffee, affecting the taste.  If you are boiling your own water for your coffee, allow the water to come...

For a full tang knife, there are two pieces of handle, one on each side. Cut and sand the pieces at the same time to ensure that both sides are symmetrical. Drill the holes for the rivets on each side. Avoid getting epoxy on the blade, as it can be difficult to remove. Place it in a vise and let it dry overnight. Insert the rivets, leaving about an extra 1/8” sticking out each side, and peen them with a ball-peen hammer. File the rivets down and sand the handle.

For a good walking stick, you want dead wood that's got some heft to it, but is still lightweight enough to carry comfortably. The ideal piece should come up to your chin, though you may want a longer or shorter walking stick depending on your preference. It should be relatively straight, and relatively uniform in thickness, at least an inch or two in diameter. Green wood is too bendable to be effective as a walking or survival stick, so only collect dead wood to make for possible staffs. If you find a very desirable branch that you'd like to use, but it's too green, cut it and whittle it to debark it, but let it dry outdoors for several weeks before treating it and finishing. Any wood that feels comfortable to you is appropriate, but many people prefer the lightness and strength of hickory and ash, as well as the availability. Keep an eye out for good branches while you're out on hikes, of the appropriate size, and a variety of wood that'll hold up to heavy use. Research good woods in your area that are commonly used for hiking sticks. Other woods that make good walking sticks include:  Vine maple Ironwood Salt cedar Aspen Use a sharp pocket knife to whittle off the bark, taking extra care to smooth out any tiny branch notches or uneven places. Round up the ends of the stick by making tiny cuts to achieve a durable and clean finish to the end pieces. After cleaning up your branch, let it sit for a few days to make sure it's thoroughly dried out. If an orangish skin starts to form on the inner flesh of the wood, that's water escaping. Scrape it off again and let it continue sitting for a while until it remains a whitish color after several days. . If you want to give your staff a clean and durable finish, stain it with a good wood finish or wiping stain. Typically, you'll do a few coats, wiping on a thin layer evenly, then wiping it off and applying more layers. Do at least 3, and do more coats if you want to achieve a darker finish to your staff. Follow the instruction on the particular brand you purchase....

For a lasso, the exact length of rope you use isn't important, provided you have enough length to tie your knot, form the loop, and twirl it above your head. Any extra length can be coiled up and carried with you. For adults, about 30 feet (9.1 m) of rope is plenty; for children, shorter may be better. If you're just practicing, nearly any type of rope will suffice. However, if you intend to actually use your lasso, you'll want a thin, tough, somewhat stiff rope. Stiffness makes the rope a little harder to tie. However, it's a desirable quality because it allows you to "push" the rope to make adjustments to the size of your loop.

For a light, refreshing flavor, you can add a tablespoon (or two!) of crushed dried lavender flowers into your baked goods. Just be sure that whatever dried lavender flowers or buds you ingest are marked for food consumption. Some forms of dried lavender bought in stores are intended for aroma use only and may have been treated with pesticides. You can:  Bake lavender and lemon cookies Bake lavender scones Bake lavender shortbread Create lavender sugar (for baking) Bake lavender cake Lavender is a great herb to aid with relaxation. Add 2 tablespoons of the dried herb to 4 cups (32 ounces) of hot water for 10 to 15 minutes. Strain the tea and then enjoy!  You can also add honey and chamomile for taste.  This tea is a good choice on stressful or anxious days. Other refreshing drinks include lavender and lemon soda and lavender lemonade. Mix together 6 tablespoons of olive oil, 2 tablespoons of balsamic or apple cider vinegar, 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, a crushed garlic clove, 2 tablespoons of honey, 1 teaspoon of mustard powder, and 1 teaspoon of dried lavender flowers.

For a more formal look, you can make a bracelet that’s perfect for a cocktail dress and a night on the town. A stylish, elegant look can be created with a simple string of circular beads. This will give you the string of pearls look without the string of pearls price. Depending on your style and preference, look for either metal, pearl, or imitation pearl beads. They should be roughly pea-sized.  These should be simple. Try not to use more than three colors and be sure that the colors you use are similar. You may wish to get the beads in a few slightly different sizes. Use them in a random or semi-random pattern to give your bracelet a little variation. You may also want to get very small beads to put in between the larger ones. These act as spacers and can create a slightly different look, as well as making your bracelet more flexible.

For a more interesting look, consider twisting them one or twice before pinning them. You wear high ponytails, low ponytails, buns, one braid, or two braids. You can even try French braiding your hair.  Put your hair in a braid the night before and take it out in the morning; this will make your hair wavy. If you have a little more time on your hands, curl your hair and put it in loose-side ponytails, or curl random parts and let it be slightly messy, or put it up in a messy bun. Consider leaving a bit of your bangs in a side parting and the rest of you hair in a high/side ponytail. You can do this with one section, on the top of your head, or on either side of your head in two sections. You can't do as much with it as you can with long hair but you still have some options for making it look fantastic.  In pressed time put your hair into a messy bun, or just brush it and wear it down. If you got up early and want to be adventurous, then take your straightener and straighten your hair. Then, just at the ends, turn the straightener out so you will get flicks. Use your curler or straightener (whatever you prefer) and curl your hair. Make the curls really tight or loose. Also, curl bits of hair and clip your fringe back. Apply a small amount of gel or wax to the palm of your hand and rub it between your fingers. Next, run your fingers through your hair and start fluffing it upwards, starting from the roots. Be sure to keep your head wrapped up with a silk scarf or a net to prevent your cornrows from getting messed up while sleeping. Wash and condition your hair before redoing the cornrows the next week. Use hair gel or hair spray to tame any new growths experienced during the week. Pull the headband down over your head so that it is around your neck like a collar, then tug the part that's in front of your up over your face.

For a professional finish and ease of production, buy a full button press. They aren't that much money and it will make the work a lot easier, if you need to make several hundred buttons.  You can also buy a hand-held cheap version but this produces a cheap-looking button. You can also get paper cutters which will further streamline the process. Just make sure it's the right size for your machine. You'll need the disk, the back, and the clear plastic front. Make sure it is for a button machine and make sure it is for the same size button that your machine produces. Print and cut out the image that you want on your button. Make sure the image you have is the right size for the button casing and then print it out on regular paper. Cut out the images as perfectly as you can. Make sure the machine is in the starting position. Place the back piece in the circular nest, backside facing down and the line of the pin horizontal. The disk should be placed in next, bowl or underside-side down. The image should be facing up and aligned correctly with the pin. Place the plastic on top of the image. Press down on the lever until you hear a click. Switch the machine into the second position. Press down firmly. There may not be a click. Lift the lever again and your button should be complete. There may be a release switch to make it easier to remove the button from the nest.

Once the instant mashed potatoes have finished cooking on the stove or in the microwave, stir in 1/3 cup (230 g) of sour cream. It will give the instant mashed potatoes a rich, creamy flavor and texture. You can also use plain yogurt or a few spoonfuls of cream cheese. Instead of heating water, use half and half or evaporated milk. These will give a creamier taste and smoother texture since the fat will help bind the instant potato flakes. Sprinkle a generous handful of shredded cheddar cheese, grated parmesan, or blue cheese crumbles. You can also mix in fresh chopped chives or parsley for a loaded baked potato flavor.

For a sleek look, tie a knot beneath the tongue of each shoe and tuck the lace ends into the shoes to hide them. For a casual look, lace all but the last two lace holes. For a sloppy look, loosen all the laces and leave them untied, tucking the ends in if necessary. For a grungy look, lace high-tops to the top (or near the top), wrap the ends of the laces around your legs, and tie them without bows. For a clean look, remove the laces altogether, sew the tongue halfway up the sides, and turn your Converse into slip-ons.

For a sleepless puppy, you can offer a warm blanket for sleeping. Place a clock that makes a rhythmic ticking sound nearby. You can also try playing the radio softly or use a white noise machine to help the puppy sleep. Consider using a heating pad under half of the crate to provide a warmer corner for cuddling. Since the heating pad is outside and under the crate, the puppy should not be in any danger of chewing on the cord or pad. If you want your dog to sleep in a crate, but he isn't crate-trained it may take some time to get him used to the crate. Do your research and be prepared to teach your dog that the crate is a good place. Put special treats in the back of crate to encourage investigation. Make sure that when you say "kennel" or "crate" you use a positive tone of voice. This tells him that going into the crate to sleep isn't a punishment. If you use it as a punishment, you may find that your dog never grows accustomed to the crate as a relaxing and quiet place. Your dog may be restless at night if he's not getting enough exercise during the day. Depending on your dog's breed, age and fitness level, you may be able to tire him out in 30 minutes or 3 hours (or more). You can exercise your dog at any time during the day that works with your schedule. Although, it's best to avoid a lot of activity the last hour or two before bedtime so that your dog has a chance to settle down. Consider playing a new sport or activity like NoseWork, Rally, agility, tracking or Flyball with your dog. New activities mean learning new skills for both of you. Getting involved will increase mental and physical stimulation which helps both of you with exercise, boredom and will add to your bond. Make sure that your pet has had a chance to urinate and defecate right before bedtime. Feed your dog dinner a few hours before bedtime. This gives him plenty of time to digest and eliminate. Try keeping the hour or so before bedtime nice and calm which will set the tone for the night's sleep to come. If your dog is overly anxious, try...

For a slim chicken costume, you can stick with one leotard. For a plump chicken, you will need two. Wrap two to four white feather boas around the body of one leotard. Start in the center back of the neck and secure the boa to the fabric with safety pins.  Make sure that the boas are wrapped with a few spare inches in each parallel, so that the costume can be filled with batting. Meanwhile, spiral the boas as closely as you can to each other so that you can get full coverage in your costume. For a more durable costume, sew the feather boas to the leotard. Choose sweater tights or lined tights so that your skin doesn't show through. Wrap several layers of white wool batting around your torso to make a plump chicken. Then, pull the feathered leotard over the wool batting.

For a small project like this, your best option is to by a bag of dry mix, which has the concrete, stone, and sand all in the same bag. One bag should be more than enough for a single flagpole. Grab a bucket that is not the one you'll use for the flagpole base. Unless the package directs you differently, add the mix to the bucket and slowly add water, mixing it up as you go. Use a shovel or a hoe to mix the cement. The right consistency is when the cement slowly slides off of the tool. If you have someone who can help you with the next steps, ask them to help you now. Grab the bucket you want to use as the flagpole base. Hold the PVC so the plastic-wrapped end is right in the middle of the bucket. It's best to hold a level against it to make sure it stays perfectly straight up. While your partner holds the PVC and the level, pour cement into the base bucket. Make sure to pour it evenly around the pole. You don't have to fill the bucket all the way to the top, as this will make the base too heavy to move. Fill the bucket at least halfway full with concrete. Hold the PVC for a few minutes until the top of the cement forms a crust. At this point it will be settled enough that you can let go of the PVC. It can take a while for the cement to fully harden, so leave the flagpole somewhere that it won't be bothered. You can test the hardness of the cement every so often by gently moving the PVC. When it doesn't move at all, the cement is hardened fully. Always read the directions for the specific brand of concrete mix you've bought. They will give you an idea about how long the concrete will take to full set.

For a smoky, black tea, look for Lapsang Souchong. If you want a strong, malty flavor, buy Assam. If you plan on drinking tea with milk or sugar, consider using a breakfast or everyday blend. Look for flavored black teas, such as Earl Grey, Lady Grey, or masala chai to include a floral, citrus, or spicy taste. Green tea has less caffeine than black tea and has a more delicate flavor. If you prefer to drink tea without milk or sweetener, try a green tea so you can detect its subtle flavor. If you're interested in green tea, learn how to make matcha. Matcha is stone-ground green tea that's traditionally used in Japanese tea ceremonies. White tea is the least oxidized and contains very little caffeine. Choose this tea if you like a smooth tea that's easy to drink without adding sweeteners or flavors. Because it's so minimally processed, you can usually only buy white tea as loose leaf instead of in bags. If you're watching your caffeine or just want to try a delicate tasting tea, pick a few herbal teas to try. Classic peppermint tea is refreshing hot or cold and chamomile tea is known for its soothing quality. Rooibos is another popular herbal tea that's often blended with dried fruit or vanilla. If you'd like to use high-quality tea leaves that you can steep multiple times, use loose leaf tea. These are uncut and dried when you buy them, although they'll unwrap and expand as they steep. For a convenient way to make tea, buy tea that's been cut and portioned into bags. Unfortunately, you can only steep these once. For high-quality tea bags, choose pyramid style bags that allow the tea to expand as it steeps. If you can't find these, look for round tea bags that are filled with finely-cut tea.

For a snakebite from a venomous snake, keeping your cat calm and quiet is the best first aid that you can administer to your cat before she receives veterinary care. The more agitated and active she is, the more quickly the venom could spread through her body and make her even sicker. It is actually recommended that keeping your cat calm and quiet is the  only  first aid that you should administer on your own.  Do not allow your cat to walk or run around as this will increase her heart rate and stimulate more blood circulation. Keep in mind that your cat may snap at you or try to bite you because of the amount of pain that she’s in. Gentle pressure will help control the bleeding from the bite wound. An example of first aid that you should  not  administer is cutting the wound open to suck out the venom or drain the wound. Not only is this ineffective, you would cause more pain and suffering for your cat. In addition, the venom could be venomous to you.  Do not apply a tourniquet or compression bandage in the area near the bite wound. Do not apply ice to the bite wound. The ice does not slow the spread of the venom and can actually damage the skin. Do not wash the wound if the bite was from a venomous snake. Washing the wound could increase the absorption of the venom. The action most likely to save your cat's life is getting her to your veterinarian as soon as possible. If possible, transport your cat in her carrier or a large box in which she can comfortably lie down. To help keep her calm and still during the drive to the veterinarian, loosely wrap your cat in a large towel or sheet. The effects of snake venom are usually irreversible and often begin immediately after the snakebite. To increase the chances of your cat’s survival and treat the effects of the snake venom, your cat will need immediate veterinary treatment. Your veterinarian may have a snakebite detection kit, which would allow him or her to identify what type of snake bit your cat. However, in the event that your veterinarian does not have the...

For a square of side length S, the perimeter is simply four times the side length: P=4s. Depending on the assignment, you may need to measure the side with a ruler, or look at other information on the page to determine the side length.  Here are some examples of perimeter calculations:  If your square has a side length of 4, then P = 4 * 4, or 16. If your square has a side length of 6, its P = 4 * 6, or 24.

For a thicker smoothie, use a frozen banana instead. If you don't have a blender, you can use a food processor fitted with metal blades. The more milk you use, the thinner smoothie you will get. For a thicker smoothie, use plain or vanilla yogurt instead.  For extra protein, add 3 tablespoons (45 grams) of peanut butter.  For extra flavor, add a pinch of ground cinnamon.  If you can't find any honey, you can use sugar, agave nectar, stevia, or even maple syrup instead. If you are using frozen bananas, then you can skip the ice cubes—unless you like really thick smoothies. There should be no lumps or clumps. From time to time, you may have to pause the blender, open it up, and push the ingredients down the sides with a rubber spatula. Depending on what type of blender you have, you may need to choose a setting, such as: "smoothie," "blend," or "puree." You can enjoy it as it is, or you can garnish it with a dollop of whipped cream, banana slices, or a drizzle of honey.

For a traditional French braid, this is probably the front section of your hair, that's closest to your forehead and temples.  You don't have to start a French braid at the top of your head. It's the easiest way to learn, but theoretically you could start a French braid anywhere. Just make sure you're including the hair above your ears in your starter section if you decide to move down the head. You can create multiple French braids on your hair using several parts. If you have short hair, it may be easier to make two medium braids rather than one large one. Hairspray or spray gel can help your French braid from developing flyaways as the day goes on. Hold the product about 12 inches (30 cm) away from your hair, then lightly spritz the length of your braid.  If you're going to add extra embellishment to your hair, hairspray it first. This will prevent flaky residue from getting on your barrettes or ribbons. Using shine serum will help to keep your hair looking smooth and soft, if it has the tendency to be rough and dry looking. For some extra flair, tie a colorful ribbon in a bow at the end of your braid.  You can use tulle, grosgrain, or ric rac, all of which can be found in a variety of colors at your local fabric store. Adding a pretty brooch or multiple hair pins along the braid is a great way to add a bit of glam to your look.

For a triangle with sides a, b and c, the perimeter P is defined as: P = a + b + c. What this formula means in simpler terms is that to find the perimeter of a triangle, you just add together the lengths of each of its 3 sides. In this example, the length of side a = 5, the length of side b = 5, and the length of side c = 5. This particular example is called an equilateral triangle, because all three sides are of equal length.  But remember that the perimeter formula is the same for any kind of triangle. In this example, 5 + 5 + 5 = 15.  Therefore, P = 15. In another example, where a = 4, b = 3, and c=5, the perimeter would be: P = 3 + 4 + 5, or 12. If the sides of the triangle are measured in centimeters, then your answer should also be in centimeters.  If the sides are measured in terms of a variable like x, your answer should also be in terms of x. In this example, the side lengths are each 5cm, so the correct value for the perimeter is 15cm.

For a unique look, use a thin paintbrush. If you want polka dots, use a round pouncer to stamp the paint on. Alternatively, you can tape a stencil over the jar, paint inside the stencil, then peel the stencil off. Paint your jar first, then let it dry. Use a 1 in (2.5 cm) wide paintbrush or foam brush to apply a layer of decoupage glue to the bottom quarter or third of your jar. Stick your hand into the jar, then rotate it as you sprinkle extra-fine glitter onto the glue. Tap the excess glitter off, then allow the jar to dry upside down. Seal the glitter with glossy acrylic sealer, if desired.  If you painted the jar by hand, you can wrap tape around it to get a neater line. Peel the tape off before the glue dries.  Do not use tape on jars that have been spray painted. This tends to remove the paint. For something more rustic-looking, use raffia or jute cord. You can wrap the ribbon around the middle of the jar or around the neck. If you added a stencil or reverse stencil to your jar, then you would definitely want to wrap the ribbon/raffia/cord around the neck so that you don't cover the design up. This is great for reverse stencils, but it could look nice with regular ones too. Use enough vase filler so that you can see it peeking through the bottom of your reverse stencil. If you used a regular stencil, fill the jar as much as you want. Glass marbles make great vase fillers, but you can use colored sand as well. You can find these in the floral section of an arts and crafts store.

For a vegetable soup that does not use broth, add 4-6 cups of water into a large pan, and simmer all the ingredients for 45 minutes to 1 hour, using a very low heat. Add all the vegetables, garlic, and spices at the same time.  The pan needs to be large enough to include the 4 cups of vegetable stock, so choose a heavy-bottomed stockpot.  Do not boil the water; this may cause the vegetables to burn. Stir the soup occasionally. When all of the vegetables are soft, the soup is ready to be served. For a quicker vegetable soup, you will need to sauté the vegetables and use broth. Heat the olive oil until it begins to slightly bubble.  Lower heat will make the process go very slowly, and higher heat will cause the oil to burn. If you don't have olive oil, coconut oil, palm oil, avocado oil, or butter is also acceptable. Continue to cook these for about 8 minutes over low heat. They will begin to simmer and will become fragrant. Stir them occasionally, about once every minute. This includes the green beans, celery, corn, and any other vegetables you will include in the soup. Sauté the vegetables over low heat for another 5 minutes. You will know the vegetables are well-cooked when they become soft and fragrant; you never want the vegetables to turn dark brown.  Stir the vegetables occasionally with a long wooden or metal stirring stick. Twice every minute should suffice. If your vegetables start to get very hot and sizzle constantly, this means they are frying. Turn the heat down if this happens. Turn the heat up if the vegetables are not sizzling at all. Stir the pot to make sure the ingredients are all mixing together. Then, increase the heat to high. This will cause the vegetables to simmer. If the soup begins to boil, lower the heat a little bit. You will need to watch the soup and make sure it doesn’t go beyond a simmer  Turn down the heat to medium or low if it boils. You want the soup to bubble slightly but not to be at a rolling boil. If you had turned down the heat of the soup, it may be appropriate to...

For a woman to become a bhikkhuni, she must meet several basic requirements. They are generally quite practical:  She must not be pregnant or nursing If she has a child, she must arrange other care for her dependent She must be of sound mind and body She must be free of debt and other obligation They vary in size (from very small to quite large) and can be found in rural areas in addition to in cities. Once you've found one that's right for you, express your interest in training there. Each community has different regulations, but most will have you training for a few weeks. If you enjoyed your time at the monastery and they, in turn, took a liking to you, you may be asked to return upon the completion of your initial training. It is during this time that you will undertake the eight Buddhist precepts. These are the 5 of lay practitioners, plus three more (known as the upasika vows).  You do not have to shave your head at this juncture. You will, however, be wearing white or white and black clothing. This stage normally takes a few weeks to a few months. The precepts (or Garudhammas) are the following: She must not harm any human or non-human life She must not steal She must abstain from all sexual activity She must not tell lies or deceive She must not drink alcohol or otherwise ingest intoxicants She must only eat at the appropriate times She must not sing, dance, or wear cosmetics or perfume She must not indulge in sleep or spend her time in luxurious places This literally means "homeless one," since you will have abandoned your home for the life of a nun. You are required to shave your head, wear white robes, and uphold the 8 precepts. This normally takes six months to several years, depending on your situation.  As of now, you are still technically a lay person. You are allowed to handle money and support yourself financially, though certain expenses will be shared with other women in the same position.

For accurate results, discard the topsoil until you reach soil with a consistent color and texture, typically about 5 cm (2 in) down. Dig a hole 15 cm (6 in) deep. Repeat several times across your yard or field to get a representative set of samples. You can send these soil samples to a local extension office or soil-testing laboratory, and pay them to test the soil's pH, or acidity. However, pH testing kits are cheaply available at garden supply stores or nurseries, and easy to conduct at home. Sending the samples to a professional is recommended for farmers, so you can receive an exact recommendation for how much additive to use. Home gardeners may wish to go with the cheaper, faster kit, and use trial and error with the additives. Many plants prefer a slightly acidic soil, so aim for a pH of 6.5 if you don't have any other information. Ideally, find your plant's preferences online or by talking to an experienced gardener. If you can't find specific pH levels, assume that "acidic soils" mean a pH of 6.0 to 6.5, while "alkaline soil" means a pH of 7.5 to 8. If your soil pH is too low for your plant, raise the soil pH with these alkaline additions. Check a garden supply store for garden lime, crushed oyster shells, or other calcium supplements, or crush egg shells to a powder at home. Mix the additive into a large amount of soil one handful at a time, testing the soil pH each time. Keep in mind that these additives can take weeks or months to change the pH of the soil. Wait until you start noticing results before making any more additions. If you need to lower your soil pH level, you'll need an acidic addition instead. Mix in aluminum sulfate or sulfur from a gardening supply store, testing the pH again after each handful added. There are no consistent home methods for raising soil pH. Scientific tests show that pine needles and coffee grounds do not have a reliable, significant effect on soil acidity, despite widespread advice to the contrary. Over time, your soil pH will gradually return to its usual...

For addicts who have been consuming drugs for a long period of time, it is extra difficult for them to get over the bad habit, so they often seek medical help. There are different drugs that help in giving the same feel of weed but cause less harm to the body. These drugs help in minimizing the cravings and eventually help the person become completely sober. Nicotine medicines, patches and gums are available in stores and can be bought without prescription. Nicotine helps in making the cravings less severe and reduces feelings of irritability and headache that you might face during withdrawal.  Chewing a gum after every 2 hours when you’re awake helps in minimizing the cravings. If you are using 4 mg gums, make sure you don’t chew more than 20 gums per day or if using 3 mg, then not more than 30 pieces of gum per day. A patch should be changed after every 16 or 24 hours and the dosage you need depends on your level of addiction. It can be taken off while sleeping and put right back as soon as you wake up. It does cause a little soreness on the area it was patched so it is advisable to change areas every time. Make sure you do not completely rely on these medications (and other substances, like alcohol) as they are addictive in nature, too. The doses should be cut back with time, which will serve the right purpose of using them in the first place! These nicotine replacements should not be used if you have not completely quit smoking as the combination comes with serious problems. There are other non-nicotine medicines that are gained by prescription of a doctor. These are usually Xanax, Zyban, Wellbutrin, Wellbutrin SR and Wellbutrin XL and Varenicline. These medicines tell the brain to stop craving for the drug if taken in the right amount. However, they do require a prescription from your doctor.  Most of these help with depression symptoms and may cause agitation, frustration and unusual behavior at times. If you think there is a negative change (more than just a normal feeling that you might be feeling...
