Soapstone's texture resembles a dry bar of soap and is extremely malleable.  It will easily form a shape with little force.  Soapstone is so soft that you can carve it with harder rocks you find in your backyard; you can even use your fingernail to carve it.  It also comes in many colors like grey, green, and black.  Use soapstone if you are making a small sculpture that won't be easily damaged if you accidentally scratch or nudge it. You can find soapstone and other soft rocks at a local stone carving supplies stores.  For example, in California there is a store called "Stone Sculptors Supplies" that sells soft stones for carving.  Alternately, you can acquire your stones from a stone yard.  Know, however, that these stones are typically used for construction purposes (building counter tops, for example) and may be harder than artistically provided stones.  Know that some soapstone contains asbestos, which can cause lung cancer, asbestosis, and mesothelioma if inhaled. Alabaster comes in a wide range of colors and is available from many suppliers.  Alabaster is best if you want a colorful, sturdy sculpture. It can come in variety of colors like white, grey, beige, orange, yellows, reds, and translucent. Although alabaster is generally harder than soapstone, it still carves easily.  It is the ideal choice for new sculptors since it will still retain its shape without requiring specialized tools or strenuous effort. An alternative to alabaster is limestone, which carves easily and regularly but is not available in a wide range of colors (typical limestone comes in different shades of grey).  Also, limestone can be difficult to sculpt if you get the wrong piece.  Limestone is slightly harder and doesn't polish as well as alabaster. Carving these stones requires specialized tools like electric grinders and hammers.  Granite and marble are usually sculpted in large quantities since they are most optimal for statues and other large items that require durability. Working with large slabs of hard stones requires...

Выберите стеатит (мыльный камень), если вы начинающий и у вас мало инструментов для резьбы. Для наилучшей комбинации податливости и износостойкости покупайте алебастр (или строительный гипс).

Soccer is a team sport, and you will not do well if you're playing only for yourself. Any moves you make on the field should be designed to put the team in a better position to score, not to make you look good. If you have a personal problem with a team member, don't take it onto the field. Once the game starts, put aside any personal animosity and focus on the team as a whole. Keeping an encouraging mantra running through your head can improve your confidence and help you stay in the moment. If you feel the urge to criticize yourself, let it go and return to your encouragement. For example, you might repeat to yourself "It's okay. You're doing great. Just a simple strike, you've done it before. Good clean strike." Visualization and meditation can help build confidence and improve your self-image. Set aside 5 to 10 minutes each day to sit quietly and visualize yourself playing your best, or scoring the winning goal. Think about how the movements feel, and how your body feels. Put yourself in the moment as you replay your visualization in your mind. Deep breathing exercises can help keep you calm under pressure. Soccer can be an intensely personal game, and opponents often will try to trigger your emotions to distract you. Practice positive, helpful reactions to game events that normally would trigger an angry or upset reaction. For example, instead of getting angry or arguing with a referee's call, shake it off and move on. You can't improve your game – in soccer or any other sport – without making some mistakes along the way. When the inevitable happens, take a deep breath and return to the moment. You'll have time after the game, or at the end of practice, to analyze your mistake and learn from it. In the moment, put it out of your mind. If you dwell on it, you've taken your mind out of the game and your performance will suffer as a result.

Soccer is a very physical game that is often played outdoors. Between the rain and your sweat, your socks may get extremely moist. Many brands have technology to wick away sweat and moisture. Hygiene, odour issues, and performance can all be affected by extreme moisture. Each brand has its own patented technology:  Puma technology is referred to as DryCell, CoolPlus Yarn, and CoolCell. Nike technology is referred to as Dri-Fit. Adidas technology is referred to as ClimaCool and ClimaLite. Under Armour technology is referred to as ArmourDry and HeatGear Each player is comfortable with a different sock length. In an official match, you may need to keep your socks at least above your shin guard. In practice you may find that a shorter length allows for more movement. Cold weather may also affect your decision. Here are some helpful descriptions that you may come across:  OTC stand for socks that come over the calf. These socks are the longest you can get and usually are worn above your knee. Crew refers to socks that cover slightly above your calf. Low-cut refers to socks that are below your calf and slightly above your ankle. No-show refers to socks that are below your ankle and basically cannot be seen with your shoes on. Invest in higher end technology that creates strategic support, cushioning, and comfort for each foot. These socks will usually have an L or R to indicate which foot to place the sock on to. Choose from a variety of technological specifications including: ribbed ankle support, anti-odor technology, mesh ventilation, achilles cushioning, and arch support. For example, you may need achilles cushioning if you have been injured or find that your shoes irritate that area when you perform certain movements. Team administrators and coaches may have the added responsibility of choosing team colours. They should also consider construction and sweat control as these socks will need to be durable and prevent player issues with hygiene and performance. Think about the ratio of synthetic material against...

Social anxiety disorder can cause you to think negative thoughts about yourself when faced with a social situation. You may think "I'll look like a fool" or "I'm going to humiliate myself." The first step to overcoming them is to identify the thoughts when they pop into you head. Knowing what is causing social phobia can help you overcome it. Stop yourself when you think these thoughts and say, "No, I will not look like a fool. I am strong and competent and I'm going to get through this." After you have confronted and identified the thoughts, analyze the fear. Try to overwrite the negative thoughts in your brain with positive, realistic ones. Ask yourself questions about your negative thoughts. For example, ask "Do I know I'm going to humiliate myself" or "How do I know I'm going to blow my presentation?" Then ask yourself, "Will it be the end of the world if I mess up?" The logical answers to the questions are: more than likely, you will not humiliate yourself or mess up. Even if you do mess up, you are human, as is everyone watching you. Even professionals mess up. One unhelpful thing people do when dealing with social fears is make false, unrealistic predictions about the social situation. You can't predict what will happen. If you try, you will only come up with the worst case scenario, which will not be close to a realistic reflection of the actual event. This only causes unnecessary anxiety.   Remember that you have the power to change your exaggerated thoughts. For example, if you're going to a wedding, focus on the fact that you won't be the center of attention. Visualize being at the wedding and speaking confidently to others and enjoying yourself. Often times social fears can be a result of thinking that everyone around you is passing judgment on you. If so, take a step back, and realize that most people aren't focused on you. If they are focused on you, they are not thinking the same negative thoughts as you are.  Don't try to read people's minds. You can't know what people are thinking. Plus, they...

Social media can play a large role in the hiring processes of many agencies and organizations, who will look not only at your LinkedIn profile, but also at your Facebook and Twitter accounts, as applicable. Describe your online presence on your resume, and provide links to the social-media pages that you would like your potential employers to access. When job hunting, these sites—especially LinkedIn—should be regularly updated and maintained just as careful as your paper-copy resume. Include a statement to the effect of: “I have stayed current with hiring practices and job-search procedures, and list relevant information about my past work experience at my LinkedIn profile [include URL]. I am also active on Facebook and Twitter.” Alternately, if you prefer not to have an online social media presence, note this clearly on your resume. It’s better to acknowledge the fact that you choose not to market yourself online than to risk appearing out of touch with modern technology and hiring practices. You can simply include a statement such as: “While I realize that some parts of the job-search process can take part online, I have chosen not to use a site such as LinkedIn because I would prefer my professional experience be summarized only on my resume.” Modern resumes are brief: they typically comprise no more than two pages. If your resume follows outdated resume-writing conventions—especially if the style of your resume is decades old—you will appear professionally out-of-touch and a poor choice to fill the position. Remove excess verbiage from your paragraphs, and focus on using active verbs that highlight professional skills. Only include a couple of concise bullet points describing your responsibilities at each prior job. Use verbs and active language, for example: “Developed material for cooling semi-truck radiators that saved $200,000 per year.” While conventional chronological resumes present employment information from most recent to oldest and span an individual’s entire working career, this can be...

Social media is a pretty cheap way of staying engaged with your consumers. Create a Twitter account and a Facebook page, at a minimum. You can also create a Facebook group around a theme instead your business. For example, a massage parlor might start a Facebook group on “Relaxation Tips for Men.”  Remember to use consistent branding on your social media accounts. For example, your logo should be your profile picture on Twitter. Also put your tagline in your bio. Whoever handles your social media accounts should understand your branding voice. Websites aren’t free, but they shouldn’t cost a lot. You’ll probably pay a couple hundred dollars a year. You can either design the website yourself using Wix or similar programs, or you can hire someone.  On your website, you can post client testimonials that support your brand. For example, a massage parlor can have clients testify about how relaxing the massage was. Your website design should also complement the design scheme you use on printed materials. Blogging is a great way to build company loyalty. Your blog should provide value for consumers, such as “do it yourself” articles. For example, if you run a massage parlor, you can upload a video showing people how to give their spouse a massage. Don’t blog unless you can upload content regularly, which is key to establishing loyalty. Avoid only communicating digitally. Instead, host events for your customers that help further the brand you are creating. For example, a designer of maternity clothes can host a baby shower for a group of customers. You’ll only pay for snacks and possibly rental space. At the event, you can also hand out gifts—perhaps, your new clothing line for babies. As a business owner, you’re already a semi-expert in your industry. Reporters constantly need people to give them quotes to use in stories, so you should cultivate these relationships. A mention in a newspaper article will increase your brand’s visibility.  Sign up at helpareporter.com. At the website, you’ll enter your information as a...

Social media is not the only way to stay in contact with people.  Instead of getting updates about what your friends are up to via social media, give them a call or send them an email or text message.  Ask them, “What are you up to later?  Would you like to grab some pizza and hang out?” Without the constant instinct to check social media, you’ll be more engaged in the world around you.  Strike up a conversation with your seatmate on the bus.  “Lovely weather today, isn’t it?” you might say.  You could also get involved in your community.  Look up local charities or nonprofit organizations that offer volunteer opportunities.  You might be able to volunteer at your local soup kitchen, food bank, or home-building organization (like Habitat for Humanity). Check out local clubs and groups on Meetup.com.  The site allows people to connect and share their favorite interests, including movies, books, and meals.  If you don’t see a group you’re interested in, start one of your own! Social media isn’t just a great tool for communicating and seeing what others are doing.  It is also often a primary mode of getting the news.  But even without social media, you can stay informed.  To read the day’s news, read a newspaper, visit the site of your favorite news purveyor, or grab a periodical covering current events from your local newsstand. Many people have a long backlog of books they promised themselves they’d get to “someday.”  Now that you’re taking a break from social media, your “someday” has arrived.  Settle into a cozy chair with a mug of warm tea and one of the books that seem most interesting to you. If you like reading but don’t have books of your own to read, visit your local public library and check out a few volumes that seem interesting. Dust, vacuum, and do the dishes.  Go through your closet and identify clothes that you don’t wear anymore.  Take them to the secondhand store for donation.  Go through your books, movies, and games and look for ones that you’re willing to part with.  Put them up for sale on...

Social support is a crucial component of mental health.  Having a positive social network produces feelings of safety and connectedness. These components are important when considering limiting your cell phone use since your use is likely to be at least partly based on social connection (such as texting, using social applications). While cell phone use may feel positive, it can actually limit us and close us off from intimate relationships.  Simply tell your family and friends that you think you are using your cell phone too much and you are working on cutting down. You can explain that you would appreciate if they support you in this process. Additionally, you could give them specific suggestions and involve them in your plan. For example, ask them to call or text you only at certain times of the day. Ask for advice. Your family members know you personally and may be able to help you devise a specific plan on cutting down your phone use. Let your family and friends know that you may not text, call, or email them back right away since you are attempting to cut down your cell phone use. If they are aware of the situation they are more likely to be understanding and not be upset. Instead of getting social support mostly through your cell phone, it is important to engage in a personal and intimate level. This can only be fully accomplished in person.  Plan an activity with family or friends. Spend your limited cell phone time researching and planning this event. This way your energy is being used in a productive and meaningful way. This can be especially helpful during times when you feel strong urges to use your phone including after school, after dinner, and during the weekend. While cell phone addiction is not yet a widely recognized diagnosis, this does not mean that you cannot get help. There are treatment centers and counselors that specialize in these types of issues.  If your cell phone problem is severe and disrupts your daily life and functioning, counseling or mental health treatment may be helpful. ...

Social support is important during difficult times. Friends, family, and coworkers can all offer emotional support and help with stressful life events. Social support also offers you a place to feel accepted and secure. Look for these components in your relationships:  Trust. Trust is essential to building a strong, healthy relationship. It allows for vulnerability through intimate disclosure of our truest selves.  Respect. Respect in relationships means that you accept the other person’s opinions, needs, and boundaries. Respect also includes avoiding hurtful comments, name calling, and belittling.  Listening. Listening is one way to clearly communicate respect and caring to the other person. Practice active listening by allowing plenty of time for the other person to speak. Take note of what they are saying as well as how they are saying it. Look for others to do the same.  Freedom. Freedom in a relationship means that you allow the other person time for his or herself. You also allow them to foster other relationships in life. It means that you allow each other to express your needs without consequences. Unfortunately, some relationships can be unhealthy or even abusive. Abuse in relationships is often about controlling the other person either physically or emotionally. Here are some behaviors that might suggest the other person is abusive:  Purposefully embarrassing you Being overly critical Ignoring or excluding you Being moody and unpredictable often Controlling where you go and limiting who you can see Using phrases like “If you don’t _____, I will_____.” Using money to control you Checking your cell phone or email without your permission Being possessive Exhibiting temper or extreme jealousy Pressuring, using guilt, or forcing you to have sex Once you understand what makes for a healthy or unhealthy relationship, take some time to consider your social circle and the people in it.

Socialization is the process of introducing a puppy to new situations so he learns to interact properly. Introducing your puppy to new situations and people teaches him that the right things (such as other friendly dogs, cats, and people) are not to be feared. Fearful dogs can become “aggressive” if they bite and bark when they cannot run away from the situation. Running away from things that should not be feared can be dangerous. Dogs can run into traffic and get hit by vehicles or run away from home and get lost. Once he's current with vaccinations, you can take him to parks, for walks along busy streets, other dog-friendly places, or enroll him in obedience school. If there are no obedience classes in your area or if you are waiting for one to start up, you can start on basic commands and socialization. You can also take him to crowded areas so he can watch new people and things.  You should try exposing your dog to as many different things as possible. For example, take him for a short car ride and stop every once in a while to let him check out his surroundings. Or, invite friends and their pets over to meet your dog. Let him interact with all different types of people and animals. Don't force or rush your dog to socialize. If he's fearful around new animals, don't constantly make him interact. Instead, take it slow and move at a pace that's clearly comfortable for him. If you do, your Jack Russell will learn to be nervous and aggressive with other dogs. Instead, try to keep him on his leash and keep him beside you when other dogs approach. If a stray or aggressive-looking dog comes up, leave the area quickly with your Jack Russell in tow. On the other hand, Jack Russells can be overly aggressive towards other dogs, even other Jack Russells. Since Jack Russell Terriers are hunting dogs, it's in their nature to be aggressive. You should never leave your dog unattended with another dog, even another Jack Russell Terrier. For this reason, you shouldn't have a Jack Russell Terrier around small children,...

Socialization teaches your puppy how to interact properly with various aspects of his environment (e.g., people, other dogs), which will help him grow into a confident and well-mannered adult dog. Allow your puppy to spend time around different people and experience various sights and sounds.  Puppy kindergarten class is a great way to teach your Husky puppy how to interact with other dogs. Enroll your puppy Husky in puppy kindergarten when he is four to five months old.  Other than puppy kindergarten, you can socialize your puppy by exposing him to different situations in his environment, such as the sounds of passing cars and honking horns. You can also invite your friends over to help him become comfortable with new people.  Taking your puppy to a park is another good way to expose him to different people, sights, and sounds. Observe your puppy as he explores his new world. If he appears frightened or wary of certain experiences, do not continue to expose him to those situations. By nature, Huskies are very independent and intelligent dogs. However, they can also be stubborn, which can make training difficult. Obedience classes are ideal for training your Husky.  Enroll your Husky in a "junior" obedience class when she is 4 months old and follow up with adult training around 12 months. For a well-behaved dog, it is imperative you begin training your Husky at a young age. Be aware that your Husky may use her intelligence to differentiate between training class and home — she may perform the training exercises perfectly in class, then misbehave when she gets home. Frustrating as this may be, continue to practice and reinforce her training at home. your Husky. This is particularly important if you have a Husky puppy. Crate training will help the housetraining process go more smoothly—he will not want to urinate or defecate where he sleeps. In addition, crate training will turn his crate into a safe space to go if your Husky feels scared or needs to rest. Your Husky’s crate is  not  a place of punishment....

Society is in a digital age, so if you want to attract attention, you need to be an active part of the digital world. You should have a website or blog, at the very least, as well as various social media accounts.  Sign up on every social network you can think of, but focus on the main ones including Facebook and Twitter. Linkedin is good for professional purposes, and Instagram can be a great way to share sample photographs. Regularly update your blog and other social media accounts. Make sure that you support and interact with other artists whose work you appreciate. Building good relationships with other photographers will help you more than hurt you. These people might be your competition, but they can inspire you, give you advice, and send clients your way if they lack the time or the specialized knowledge. Instead of seeking out a few individuals within the industry, look for online communities of photographers. If you only have one or two contacts within the industry, your connection gets cut off as soon as your contacts get too busy to keep in touch. Before someone hires you to photograph an event or a subject, that person will want proof that you are a good photographer. A portfolio will provide potential clients with the proof they need. A portfolio should consist mostly of photographs that represent the work you want to specialize in. For instance, if you want to specialize in family and personal portraits, your portfolio should not consist of pages upon pages of food photography. Aside from online advertisements, you should also consider using various forms of traditional print advertisement. At the very least, you should design and print up business cards that you can pass along to potential clients as you meet them. Aside from business cards, you can also place ads in newspapers or print up fliers. As with many small businesses, one of the best ways to get the word out is simply by asking the people you know to help you spread it. Be prepared to do a few sessions for free, too, just to build up...

Society often stigmatizes mental illness and those who suffer from it, and it can be easy to believe that the reason you have problems is because you're worthless or not working hard enough. This is not true. If you do have a mental illness, it is the result of a health condition, not personal failings or anything else. A good medical or mental health professional should never make you feel as though you're to blame for your illness, and neither should other people in your life -- or yourself. There is no single cause for mental illness, but there are a variety of biological factors that are known to alter brain chemistry and cause hormone imbalances.   Genetic makeup. Some mental illnesses, such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and depression, are strongly linked to genetics. If anyone else in your family has been diagnosed with mental illness, you may be more vulnerable to developing one due simply to your genetic makeup.  Physiological damage. Injuries such as severe head trauma, or exposure to viruses, bacteria, or toxins during fetal development, can lead to mental illness. Abuse of illegal drugs and/or alcohol can also cause or worsen mental illness.  Chronic medical conditions. Chronic medical conditions, such as cancer and other long-term severe illnesses, can elevate your risk for developing mental illnesses such as anxiety and depression. Some mental illnesses, such as anxiety and depression, are strongly linked to your personal environment and sense of well-being. Disruptions and instability can cause or worsen mental illness.   Difficult life experiences. Highly emotional or distressing situations in life can trigger mental illness in a person. This can be concentrated in a moment, such as the loss of a loved one, or drawn out, such as a history of sexual, physical, or emotional abuse. Experience in combat or as an emergency responder can also trigger mental illness.  Stress. Stress can worsen existing mental illness and can also cause mental illnesses such as depression or anxiety. Family...

Sociopaths aren't easy to deal with, so if you can cut the person out of your life, that might be best. Your relationship with the person isn't likely to improve. If you're dating someone you think might be a sociopath, or if the person is a friend, you should strongly consider breaking off the relationship.  This is especially true if you have an empathetic, sensitive type of personality. Sociopaths prey on this personality type, so get out while you can.  In some cases, though, it's impossible to break things off. Maybe the sociopath is your boss at work, or worse, your parent, child or sibling. If that's the case, you'll need to learn effective ways to handle yourself around the person. Don't let yourself be caught off-guard in a vulnerable situation when the sociopath is around. Showing your real emotions will make you a target, since the sociopath will see you as someone who can be easily manipulated. When you have to interact with the person, show that you're completely in control of yourself.  Try putting on a cheerful face whenever the sociopath is around. Even if you're not feeling particularly cheerful that day, you don't want to reveal your true mood to the person. It's important to show that you're not someone who's easily cracked or swayed. If you're feeling vulnerable, try to stay away from the person for the day. Remember that sociopaths are highly skilled at pushing people's buttons to get a rise out of them. If you anticipate this before it happens, you'll be less likely to become a victim of the sociopath's manipulations. Stay calm and casual no matter what the person says.  For example, you might be having a perfectly fine morning at work when your sociopath coworker comes up to you and tells you the boss has a big problem with your latest report. Don't believe what the sociopath tells you until you hear it straight from your boss's mouth. Or the sociopath in your group of friends might casually tell you about a party you weren't invited to. Wait until you get the story from someone else...

С социопатами сложно иметь дело, поэтому, если возможно, избегайте любого общения с ними. Будьте начеку. Воспринимайте скептически все то, что говорит вам социопат. При беседе с социопатом говорите сами — не позволяйте ему говорить без умолку. Никогда не рассказывайте о своей семье, друзьях, бизнесе, финансах, мечтах, целях и тому подобном. Не говорите социопату о том, что вас радует и что расстраивает — социопат использует эту информацию в качестве оружия против вас.


Sociopathy and psychopathy are not fully understood, but they are different according to certain researchers and theorists. The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Health Disorders V (DSM-5), or the handbook used by mental health professionals, provides a description of antisocial personality disorder which shares many of the same characteristics of sociopathy and psychopathy. Sociopathy and psychopathy are not diagnosable disorders like antisocial personality disorder, but some research has suggested that these two terms are specific kinds of antisocial personality disorder and that they share several traits. These shared traits include:  disregarding laws or social mores failing to acknowledge the rights of others being unable to feel remorse or guilt displaying a tendency for violent behavior In addition to showing signs of antisocial personality disorder, someone who is a sociopath would display additional traits. These traits are mostly related to a defect with the person's conscience, whereas someone who is a psychopath might be said to lack a conscience. Traits that a sociopath might have include:  compulsive lying appears to think highly of oneself easily offended incapable of holding a job or remaining in one place for too long intensely possessive or "loving" relationships hiding a fear of abandonment latches on to others especially those who are emotionally vulnerable crimes tend to be disguised, disorganized and spontaneous, not planned  enjoys and expects flattery Some research has suggested that sociopathy may be inherited, while other research has suggested that it may be the result of childhood neglect or abuse. One study showed that about 50% of sociopaths appear to have inherited the disorder through their genetic makeup. But environmental factors or other conditions were thought to be the cause of the remaining 50% of sociopaths in the study. As a result of these conflicting findings, the exact cause of sociopathy is unknown.

Sock drawers, pillowcases, and the area under your bed are all pretty obvious places. Think about the hiding places you would search first if you were looking for something, then steer clear of those. When searching for something, people tend to look in the most obvious places first. If you hide something in such a place, someone is sure to find it. If someone seldom visits a room, then they are not likely going to come across whatever it is that you are hiding. For example, if no one ever goes into the basement or the linen closet, then those are safe hiding options. Some bad examples include:  If your sister comes into your room to use your lotion every morning, an old lotion bottle probably isn’t the best hiding spot. If your roommate likes to borrow books from your bookshelf, you should probably hide your secret notes elsewhere. This is important if you want to take out your secret items often. If getting to your hiding spot could cause a loud avalanche in your closet, attracting the attention of parents and snooping siblings, you should probably pick a different location. In the same way, you should be able to reach an item without taking everything out of your drawers or tearing up your bookcase. If you have many different hiding spots, keeping track of all your goodies could get confusing. Write a simple note in your phone or computer to help you remember. If you want to write down your hiding places on paper, you’ll need to hide the paper, too.  Keep your note vague to throw off nosy family members. For example, if you hid a secret letter in the pages of the book Tom Sawyer, you could simply write “Tom” in your notes to remind you. You can also use little tricks to help you remember your hiding spots.

Sodium bicarbonate is a medication you can take to raise the pH of your urine. Medications to raise urine pH are only appropriate for certain conditions, and taking it improperly can cause serious health problems – only take it as directed by your doctor. Usually, the medication is given in your doctor’s office as an injection.  Don’t use sodium bicarbonate if you are vomiting, you have alkalosis (too little acid in your body), or you have a deficiency of calcium or chloride.  Let your doctor know if you’re taking any other medications or supplements, you have any allergies, you’re pregnant or breastfeeding, or you have disease of your heart, kidneys, or liver. Some medications are appropriate for specific medical conditions caused by acidic urine. Ask your doctor about potassium citrate (Urocit-K), a medication used to treat a specific kidney condition and resolve kidney stones. This medication can have many side effects and is not used to treat all causes of kidney stones. This medication might be helpful and appropriate to increase your urine pH. It depends on your condition, symptoms, and what is causing your urinary problems. Ask your doctor if this medicine is right for you.

Sodium, more commonly known as salt, can be very damaging if you have kidney failure. It's vital you trim down on your sodium intake throughout the day. Cutting down on salt will cause less fluid retention in your body, and also help control blood pressure, all of which can help improve kidney disease.  Buy foods with labels that read "no salt added," "sodium-free," or "low-sodium." Check product labels to see how much sodium a food contains. Go for foods with less than 100mg of sodium per serving. Do not use when you're cooking and don’t add salt to your food. If you have a salt shaker, remove it from the table altogether to avoid the temptation to salt your food during meals. Avoid salt substitutes as well unless your doctor or dietitian has said it is okay. Avoid salty foods like pretzels, potato chips, popcorn, bacon, deli meats, hot dogs, cured meats, and canned meats and fish. Steer clear of foods that contain MSG. Cut back on how often you eat out. Foods in restaurants often contain more sodium than foods you prepare at home. . Phosphorus levels in your blood should remain low if you have chronic kidney disease. Dairy products, like milk and cheese, are generally high in phosphorus. It's best to cut back on dairy if you're struggling with chronic kidney disease.  When it comes to dairy foods, stick with your diet plan and do not exceed the recommended number of servings per day. You can also stick to low phosphorous dairy choices. Go for cream cheese, ricotta cheese, margarine, butter, heavy cream, sherbet, brie cheese, and whipped toppings that do not contain dairy. As you need calcium for strong bones, talk to your doctor about calcium supplements. Many people who have chronic kidney disease need to take calcium supplements for their health and well-being. You should also limit your intake of nuts, peanut butter, seeds, lentils, beans, organ meats, sardines, and cured meats such as sausages, bologna, and hot dogs. Avoid drinking colas and soft drinks with phosphate or phosphoric acid in them. Steer...

Soil scientists divide the particles that make up soil into three categories. Sand particles are the largest, silt is somewhat smaller, and clay particles are the smallest. The ratio of these three types determines the type of soil you have, described in a chart called the "soil triangle." For most plants, you'll want to aim for a "loam," or approximately a 40-40-20 mix of sand, silt, and clay respectively. Succulents and cacti often prefer a "sandy loam" with 60 or 70% sand instead. Pick up a small clump of soil, from beneath the top surface layer. Moisten it, then try to roll it into a ball and flatten it into a ribbon. This quick and dirty method can detect major problems, based on the following diagnosis:  If your soil ribbon breaks before it reaches 2.5 cm (1 inch), you have loam or silt. (If it can't form a ball or ribbon at all, you have sandy soil.) If your ribbon measures 2.5 to 5 cm (1–2 inches) before breaking, you have clay loam. Your soil could probably benefit from more sand and silt. If your ribbon reaches more than 5 cm (2 inches), you have clay. Your soil will need major additives, as described at the end of this section. If you're still not sure about your soil, you can find out more accurate information with twenty minutes of work and a few days of waiting. To get started, discard the surface soil, then dig up a sample of your soil about 15 centimeters (6 in) deep. Spread it out on a newspaper to dry, and remove all trash, rocks, and other large debris. Break up clumps of soil, separating it as much as possible. Once the soil is dry, add it to a tall, large jar until the jar is ¼ full. Add water until the jar is ¾ full, then add 5 milliliters (1  tsp) of non-foaming dishwasher detergent. Seal the jar and shake it for at least five minutes to further break it into fragments. Let the jar stand for at least a couple days, marking the outside with a marker or tape at these intervals:   After one minute, mark the jar at the top of the settled particles. These are sand, which settle first due to...

Soil that’s constantly damp attracts pests, including gnats, and promotes mold growth. While you shouldn’t let your plants wilt or turn yellow, try to hold off watering until the soil is completely dry.  To test the soil, stick your finger about 1 to 2 inches (2.5 to 5.1 cm) into the surface. If dirt sticks to your finger, it’s probably best to hold off watering, unless your plants look sad. It’s also best to use containers with drainage holes in the bottom. If your pots sit on saucers that collect excess water, be sure to drain them after you water your plants. Nematodes are tiny worms that eat the larvae gnats, fleas, and other pests. You can purchase them at a garden center; look for a product labeled for gnat control that contains the nematode species Steinernema feltiae.  Typically, you mix beneficial nematodes with water, then add the mixture to your soil. Check your product’s label for specific instructions. Beneficial nematodes are safe for people, plants, and pets, so try not to get grossed out or worry about harmful health effects. Mix a teaspoon or less of gentle hand or dish soap with a 1 US pint (470 mL) of lukewarm water. Add the mixture to a spray bottle, then spritz your plants’ leaves. After 2 or 3 hours, rinse the leaves thoroughly with water.  While they’re more expensive, you can also purchase insecticidal plant soaps at a garden center. Using a homemade soap spray increases the risk of leaf damage. It’s wise to test the spray on a small area before spraying an entire plant. As a rule of thumb, if a soap dries out or irritates your skin, it’s probably too harsh for your plants. your plants if other methods don’t work. If you haven’t had success keeping flies out of your plants, it’s time to transplant them. Water the plant, remove it from the old pot, then gently shake away as much soil as possible from the root system.  Fill a new pot nearly to the top with fresh potting soil. Dig a hole in the center large enough to accommodate the roots, bury them, then cover them with soil. If your...

Soil type and drainage will influence how often you need to water your roses. Sandy soil will drain easily and won’t retain water very well. If your garden has clay-type soil then it will retain moisture better. However, if the soil is extremely clay-heavy, you’ll need to add some compost or similar horticultural material to improve it at planting time. Obviously plants need watering during hot, dry weather. But you should also be aware that wind can dry out plants a great deal, even in cold weather. Newly planted roses may be at risk of drought during a dry, windy fall or winter.  As a rough guide, in extremely hot weather you should assume rose plants will need watering daily. On a standard summer day with decent heat, you will need to water every two or three days, and in warm dry weather you will only need to water about once a week. Also consider how windy it is when deciding how much to water your plants: windy weather means more water is required. Recently-planted roses still haven’t developed their root structure, so if you’ve planted in the last few months it is especially important to water the roses regularly during dry spells – even if you planted just before winter. Lack of water is the most common reason newly planted plants fail. Once established, plants will be more adept at seeking water from a wider area of soil, so you can start to ease off your watering regime after six months. Larger rose bushes will have roots spread over a wider area of soil than smaller ones. This means larger rose bushes will require more water to ensure the water reaches all of their roots. Another way to assess if roses need watering is to dig a few inches into the soil next to the plant, taking care not to damage the roots. If the soil is dry under the surface, then you need to water the rose now. If only the surface is dry, you can wait a bit longer before watering.

Solar eclipses occur when the sun, the moon, and the Earth are all in alignment allowing the moon to block the sunlight from reaching the Earth. Solar eclipses are observed as a total or partial eclipse, depending on whether or not you're located in the "umbra", the place where the moon's shadow hits a small point of Earth, or the "penumbra", the part outside of the umbra.  The amount of time a total eclipse lasts can be from a few seconds to a maximum of seven and half minutes, as the umbra moves along the "path of totality". There is also an "annular eclipse" when the moon slides across the sun, but doesn't completely cover it.  Total solar eclipses are possible because the sun is 400 times further away from Earth than the moon and 400 times larger than the moon, allowing the sun and moon to appear to be almost the same size from our perspective of the sky. You shouldn't look at eclipses through binoculars, telescopes, any type of glasses, sunglasses, smoked glass, polarizing filters, or exposed color film – none of these methods are strong enough to protect your eyes. Although the light wavelengths visible to the human eye are blocked by these objects, it is the non-visible light that causes damage to the eye; the ultraviolet and infrared wavelengths still get through and cause just as much damage as the visible light. A homemade eclipse viewer or pinhole viewer is very simply done and, generally speaking, it is the easiest and safest way to view an eclipse for just the price of some thick poster paper or cardstock. Its drawback is the very small image it produces, but this one is ideal for children and young teens who will enjoy the process of preparing the pinhole projector and then using it.  Poke a small hole using a pin or thumbtack through the center of a piece of cardstock. Place a second piece of paper on the ground to serve as the screen you will be projecting the eclipse onto. Standing with your back to the sun, hold the card a few feet off the ground above your shoulder or to your side. Make...

Sold in drugstores, ovulation testing kits detect the amount of luteinizing hormone (LH) in your urine, which increases one to two days before ovulation. Similar to over-the-counter pregnancy tests, these are digital devices with a testing stick to be held under your urine stream. There is another type of testing kit, using which you can test your dried saliva under a microscope for "fern" patterns that sometimes indicate a rise in estrogen levels in the few days leading up to ovulation. This is less reliable than the LH test, especially if you have poor eyesight. Very concentrated or very dilute urine throws off the results of this test. For best results, avoid caffeine and alcohol on the day of the test, avoid dehydration or excessive water consumption, and wait until your bladder is full. Urinate on the stick and wait for a new line to appear in the viewing window. A line that is about as dark as the existing control line means you are probably ovulating. A faint line is not a reliable indicator.  Ovulation tests accurately predict the level of LH in urine, but the surge in LH only lasts about 24–48 hours, giving you a short window to detect it. Using multiple methods to track ovulation is recommended. Some tests may work slightly differently, so check the instructions. For example, you may need to urinate into a cup and dip the test into it, or the fertility symbol may show up as as smiley face instead of a line. Test yourself daily during the most likely parts of your cycle, as described in the calendar section. If you have missed your ovulation in previous cycles and can afford additional tests, consider taking an ovulation test twice daily.

Soldering copper pipes isn't hard, but it is considerably more involved than soldering electronics, and requires different equipment. People typically engage in pipe soldering to seal joints between sections of pipe, such as elbow turns. Instead of a soldering iron, a propane torch is generally recommended for soldering copper pipes together. These are widely available at hardware stores. Specialized soldering irons can be used for pipe soldering, but a propane torch is just as effective for most jobs, and much cheaper. Manufacturers offer specialized solder wire for soldering pipes. It tends to be much thicker, usually 1/8" in diameter. Pipe solders often contain an acid flux, however solid wire works as well. Solid wire solder may need a separate flux. Absolutely avoid using leaded solder for soldering your pipes. Be sure to closely read the label to determine the alloy composition. Pipe solders tend to compose mostly tin and may also contain antimony, copper, and/or silver. To be sure your solder takes, it's helpful to clean the pipe beforehand by scouring it with an emery cloth, sandpaper, or fine steel wool. Turn off the water to your plumbing before you begin work. This will allow you to work with your pipes without fear of flooding or spraying the room. Before you turn the water off, pour a bucket of water. Keep the bucket nearby in case your torch catches anything on fire. If you're installing new piping, use a tube cutter to cut any pipe up to an inch in diameter. Tube cutters are available at hardware stores.  Take it slowly. A tube cutter works best with slow, steady movement. Go too quickly and you might dent the pipe. For larger pipe, you'll have to use a hacksaw. File off the ragged edges afterward. Once the pipes are cut, fit them into whatever joints you'll need to solder tight. Using an emery cloth or similar abrasive item, thoroughly abrade the area of pipe where you'll be applying solder to smooth and clean it. A smooth and clean surface will allow the solder to flow into the joint smoothly...

Soldering will not succeed if too much heat is lost to the air or work surface, so you will need to find a specialized surface with low heat conduction. A charcoal soldering block may be the best option for soldering silver, as it reflects heat to create the high temperature silver requires. A magnesia soldering block or a kiln brick are other common options, and may last through more soldering projects than charcoal. These can be purchased at craft stores or jewelry supply stores, and are similar in size and shape to an ordinary building brick. Silver solder is an alloy formed from silver and other metals, designed to join with silver but melt at a lower temperature. You may purchase this as a container of pre-cut chips, or purchase it in sheet or wire form and cut off 1/8 inch (3mm) chips with wire cutters. Do not attempt to use lead solder when soldering silver, as it will usually fail to work and is difficult to remove.   Warning: Avoid silver solders containing cadmium, which may cause health problems if fumes are inhaled. If you are filling a crack, you may want to use a lower-purity "easy" silver solder, as it melts at a lower temperature. For joining two pieces together, use "medium" or "hard" silver solder with more silver content, to create a stronger bond. Note that there is no industry-wide definition for these terms; if you are switching brands and want results similar to what you're used to, look at the percentage of silver content instead. Do not use a soldering iron, as these are intended for use with lower temperature lead solder and may ruin precious metals. Purchase a small oxy-acetylene torch instead from the hardware store, preferably with a flat "chisel tip" rather than a pointed one. Silver quickly conducts heat away from the location exposed tot he flame. Because of this, a small torch tip may make the soldering go much more slowly. A "flux" is necessary to clean the silver's surface and assist in heat transfer. It also helps remove oxides on the silver's surface, which would interfere...

Solid hardwoods have been the traditionally used material in flooring for some time now. They will give a room an elegant, old-world look and for good reason: solid hardwood floors last a long time. They can be sanded and refinished many times, giving them a much longer lifespan than other types of wood flooring. However, considerations must be made as hardwoods are very susceptible to changes in moisture level.  Solid hardwood floors can only be placed in specific areas, because of their reactions to moisture. They cannot be used in bathrooms or in basements. Prepare accordingly. Floors like these will also need installation considerations. Solid hardwoods will need to be nailed into place, which means that a wood subfloor is required. If you do not or cannot provide this, you will need to consider other options. If solid hardwoods are not an option but you would like to have a similar look, consider engineered wood. This wood is similar to what is used to construct many types of modern furniture, and can be used anywhere in your home as it is not affected by moisture as much. It will provide a sleeker, more modern feel and appearance to a room. It is also possible to glue boards such as this. However, the surface they are applied to must be absolutely flat and perfectly clean, so it is not necessarily recommended.

Solo snuggling can get a little boring, so make sure to grab yourself some tasty treats to keep yourself entertained. Plus, a having warm drink like tea or hot cocoa is like getting a hug from the inside out! If you're snuggling solo, you won't have another body next to you for comfort and warmth, so grab the biggest, comfiest blanket you can find and wrap yourself up in it. Make yourself a little pillow fort from all of the pillows you can find around the house. Put a couple behind your back and head, press one against your stomach and hold one between your legs (this one is surprisingly good!). Okay, so this is cheating a bit on the "solo" part, but there's no denying that cats and dogs (or bunnies, chinchillas and other small furry creatures) make excellent snuggle buddies. Having your pet cuddled up beside you will bring your snuggling to a whole new level.

Solving an equation in algebra usually means finding out what the variable is. Algebra equations are usually set up with numbers and/or variables on both sides, like this: x + 2 = 9 × 4. To figure out what the variable is, you need to get it by itself on one side of the equals sign. Whatever is left on the other side of the equals sign is your answer. In the example (x + 2 = 9 × 4), to get x by itself on the left side of the equation, we need to get rid of the "+ 2". To do this, we'll simply subtract 2 from that side, leaving us with x = 9 × 4. However, to keep both sides of the equation equal, we also need to subtract 2 from the other side. This leaves us with x = 9 × 4 - 2. Following the order of operations, we multiply first, then subtract, giving us an answer of x = 36 - 2 = 34. As we just saw above, getting x by itself on one side of the equals sign usually means getting rid of the numbers next to it. To do this, we perform the "opposite" operation on both sides of the equation. For instance, in the equation x + 3 = 0, since we see a "+ 3" next to our x, we'll put a "- 3" on both sides. The "+ 3" and "- 3", leaving x by itself and "-3" on the other side of the equals sign, like this: x = -3. In general, addition and subtraction are like "opposites" — do one to get rid of the other. See below:  For addition, subtract. Example: x + 9 = 3 → x = 3 - 9  For subtraction, add. Example: x - 4 = 20 → x = 20 + 4 Multiplication and division are a little harder to work with than addition and subtraction, but they have the same "opposite" relationship. If you see a "× 3" on one side, you'll cancel it by dividing both sides by 3, and so on. With multiplication and division, you must perform the opposite operation on everything on the other side of the equals sign, even if it's more than one number. See below:  For multiplication, divide. Example: 6x = 14 + 2→ x = (14 + 2)/6  For division, multiply. Example: x/5 = 25 → x = 25 × 5 Exponents are a fairly advanced pre-algebra topic — if you don't know how to do them, see...

Solving puzzles requires you to combine what you already know with new information from the puzzle. Just like riddles, puzzles ask you to use existing knowledge and context clues to come up with an original, often tricky answer. Puzzles can help you learn to recognize patterns and order.  Puzzle games such as Tetris, as well as traditional jigsaw puzzles, require you to look at a situation in multiple ways to figure out the best solution. This process transfers well into solving riddles, too. Specific types of puzzles and games are best at developing specific types of skills. Thus, if you do a lot of crossword puzzles, you’ll probably get very good at crossword puzzles, but you may not see equivalent gains in other areas. It’s helpful to play a variety of games instead of focusing on only one type. The more you repeat a certain type of task, the less effort your brain needs to expend to perform it. Regularly alternating the types of games you play will help keep your brain from taking shortcuts. For example, you could read a complex news story and then write a short summary that boils down all the ideas into a few key ideas. Research suggests that this will help you look at the “big picture” as well as the details, a skill that also comes in handy when solving riddles. Rephrasing ideas into your own words may also help you develop linguistic flexibility and improve memory. It’s easier to remember ideas when you’ve taken the time to paraphrase them, because your brain has had to work to structure the ideas so that it understands them.

Some CD players have a "force eject" function that's specifically designed to get CDs out when other methods have failed. Because this method doesn't require you to tamper with your CD player in any way, it's smart to start here - you have nothing to lose if it doesn't work. First, turn your car off if it isn't already. Press your CD player's power and eject buttons down at the same time, holding them for about ten seconds. If your stereo has a "force eject" feature, it should spit out the CD. Some CD players may not function when the car is turned off. For these players, try pressing and holding the power and eject buttons while the car is running. The power + eject button combination is one common "force eject" command, but many CD players may require different button inputs to eject a stuck CD. If you still have it, consult your CD player's owner's manual, which should include information on this and other functions that can help you retrieve your CD.

Some Native Americans saw the bowl of the Big Dipper as a bear. The stars of the handle were three warriors chasing it.  Other Native Americans saw the Big Dipper's bowl as the bear's flank and its handle as the bear's tail. In the United Kingdom and Ireland, the Big Dipper is called “Plough,” which derives from Nordic stargazing in which the Big Dipper was believed to be the chief god, Odin's, wagon or chariot. In Danish, they call it “Karlsvogna” or Charles wagon. Various cultures see the Big Dipper as something different. In China, Japan, and Korea, it's a ladle. In northern England, a cleaver, in Germany and Hungary, a cart, and in the Netherlands, a saucepan. It's a salmon net in Finland and a coffin in Saudi Arabia. Escaped American slaves found their way to freedom in the north along the Underground Railroad by being told to “follow the drinking Gourd.” Thus, the Big Dipper was used as a navigational method. The Micmacs of Canada saw the Big Dipper bowl as being a celestial bear, with the three stars of its handle being hunters chasing the bear. The stars that make up the Big Dipper are part of the Ursa Major Moving Cluster. The furthest star from earth, Alkaid, makes up the handle and is 210 light years from earth.  The other stars are Dubhe (105 light-years from earth); Phecda (90 light-years); Mizar (88 light-years); Merak (78 light-years); Alioth (68 light-years); and Megrez (63 light-years). These starts are in motion. Thus, in about 50,000 years, the Big Dipper will no longer retain the same shape.

Some activities may interfere with the diagnostic tests. To give yourself the best chance at a same-day diagnosis, prepare for your doctor's visit:  Do not smoke any substance on the day of your visit. Avoid all caffeine on the day of your visit. Avoid exercise and cold air exposure. Let your doctor know if you have recently had a cold, viral infection, or immunization (shots). Try to pinpoint the triggers that may cause your attacks. Tell the doctor if they happen more at certain places, certain times of year, or certain times of day or night. Mention any family history of allergens or skin conditions. Some health conditions may make your asthma worse.

Breathe into the mouthpiece according to doctor's instructions. Typically, you'll take a full breath, then breathe out either slowly or quickly, as directed. For the most accurate results, the test should be conducted at least three times.  Tell your doctor first if you have recently had a heart attack, stroke, chest pain, pneumothorax ("punctured lung"), eye surgery, abdominal surgery, or hemoptysis (coughing up blood).

If you are unsure whether your agent belongs to a particular association, review paperwork or business cards from your agent to locate a seal or logo that represents any state or national association they may belong to. You may also want to call the  broker, office manager, or firm to determine if the agent belongs to an association with which you can file a complaint. To file a complaint with the National Association of Realtors, you are required to pinpoint an ethics violation in your complaint.  Familiarize yourself with their ethics rules so that you can point to something specific. Specific violations include a duty not to deliberately mislead you about market value, as well as a duty to submit offers and counteroffers as quickly as possible. There may be time limits. For example, the National Association of Realtors requires that you file a complaint within 180 days of knowing that a Realtor has committed an unethical act. You can download the complaint form in PDF or in Microsoft Word. Attach supporting documentation as well as a signed and dated statement in which you explain the circumstances surrounding the alleged ethics violation. Some associations offer alternative dispute resolution such as mediation. In mediation the parties work under the guidance of a mediator toward a solution acceptable to both parties. Once the local grievance committee receives your complaint, they will determine whether you have alleged an actual violation of the ethics rules. If so, a hearing will be scheduled.  Gather your documentation and think about any witnesses you can call. You must present evidence that supports your contention. Mere accusation is insufficient. If your complaint is rejected, you may appeal to the Board of Directors within 20 days by filling out the appropriate form. The...

Some air conditioners have filters that can be cleaned.  But other types of air conditioners have filters that are meant to be disposed of after a given amount of time.  Consult your air conditioner’s instruction manual to determine whether cleaning your air conditioner’s filter is an option. You should never clean your air conditioner’s filter with the air conditioner on.  This will cause a rush of unfiltered air into your residence and cause your air conditioner’s evaporator coils and other internal parts to collect dirt and particulate matter. Do not use your air conditioner until you’ve replaced the filter. On large central air conditioning units, you should be able to locate your filter by looking along the return duct’s length.  You might need to unscrew a few screws to access it.  In small window-mounted air conditioning units, you’ll have to pop the front face of air conditioner off with a putty knife.  In wall-mounted air conditioners, you might have to slide the front panel off in order to access the filter. Consult manufacturer directions for more information on how to access your air conditioner’s filter.

Some animals will just never get along. If you already have a dog, think carefully before introducing a cat to your house. No matter how badly you may want a new furry friend, it is unfair to both animals to make such a big change without knowing how it could affect their quality of life. The American Humane Society suggests that a dog that becomes aggressive in the presence of a calm, still cat, or utterly loses her ability to concentrate on anything else, will probably never be able to live peacefully with a cat. This is a difficult, sometimes impossible behavior to train, and if you are relatively inexperienced you may be in over your head. There are many professional dog trainers who can help assess your dog’s limits, and work with you to develop a more detailed strategy. This will likely be a slow process. Do not expect too much too soon, and do not be surprised if your animals exhibit animosity or fear. Puppies and kittens that grow up together have the best chance of getting along as adults. If your dog is already fully grown, consider getting a kitten instead of a cat. A kitten is less likely to be afraid of a dog, or to trigger your dog’s chase instincts by scampering. If you know someone who has a particularly even-tempered cat, or one that is already used to dogs, ask if you can bring your dog over for a controlled test. This will give you an idea of how difficult it will be to get your dog used to living with a cat. If you are certain you want to bring a cat into your home, start by bringing in things that smell like the cat—grooming supplies, beds, etc. Bring things like baby gates, litter boxes, food bowls, and scratching posts into your house before the cat, to give your dog time to get used to these objects.

Some appliance labels do not list watts. In this situation, look for an amp or "A" measurement instead. Laptop and phone chargers may list two amp values. Use the one labeled input. In the United States and a few other countries, the standard household voltage is 120V. In the EU and most of the rest of the world, the voltage is between 220 and 240V. In the US, some large appliances such as washing machines may be plugged into special 240V circuits. Check the appliance label's voltage rating to find out. (The label only tells you the recommended voltage, but you can assume a professionally installed appliance matches this recommendation.) Multiplying amps and volts gives you an answer in watts, or electrical power.  Example: A microwave label lists 6.5 amps and is plugged into a 120V outlet. It consumes 6.5 amps x 120 volts = 780 watts. The wattage tells you the rate energy is consumed while the appliance is active. Multiply the wattage by the number of hours the device runs during an average day.  Example: If the microwave runs for half an hour each day, multiply 780 watts x 0.5 hours / day = 390 watt hours per day. This converts from watt hours to kilowatt hours.  Example: 390 watt hours / day ÷ 1000 watts / kilowatt = 0.39 kilowatt hours per day. For example, if you want to find out how many kilowatt hours you'll be charged for during a 31-day billing cycle, multiply your answer by 31 days.  Example: 0.39 kilowatt hours / day x 31 days = 12.09 kilowatt hours.

Some arguments continue in spite of your best efforts. If your boyfriend is saying hurtful things, misinterpreting you, acting arrogant or judgmental, his ego has been hurt and he is behaving this way out of self-protection. Although you may think that by saying or doing the right thing you can bring him around, he's actually not in a state where he's truly receptive to your words and actions. While you cannot change what's happening with the other person, you can take care of yourself. Realizing this helps avoid damaging confrontations. It's okay to walk away from your boyfriend; remember, though, that this is not a punishment to him. Stay receptive and loving, and when he decides to open up, be there to listen. Sometimes a 30-minute break can help both of you calm down. Take a walk, call a friend, or do something else entirely for a good half an hour before returning to your boyfriend. If you can't walk away for whatever reason, disengage from the argument by keeping silent. Listen to your inner feelings instead of fanning the flames with more words.

Some astrologers believe that Gemini men aren’t particularly apt at maintaining a long attention span. They might be restless or quick to move on to something else. To avoid this, make your move with a Gemini man as soon as possible.  For example, you can try asking a Gemini man out to coffee soon after meeting him. Try saying, "I'd love to hear more about your trip abroad. Do you want to grab coffee later this week?" For those who believe in astrology, a Gemini man will likely want to hear all about you, your life, and your passions. Be open to communicating these things to a Gemini man. When you find a point of connection, like a mutual love of jazz, cultivate that connection. For example, you might ask a Gemini man to do something you both enjoy, like attending a jazz concert. Some astrologers believe that Geminis are usually in touch with what is going on in the world. Try talking to a Gemini man about current events. For example, you can say: Try asking, "Did you see what was on the front page of today’s local newspaper?" A Gemini man can be heavily influenced by his thoughts. Asking his opinions about a particular subject can lead to stimulating conversation between you and a Gemini man. Talking about his views and perceptions may help a Gemini man engage with you on a deeper level. Try asking, "What do you value most in life?"

Some baseball players pour half a bag in their mouth at once, and chew them over the course of an hour. The more seeds you can store in your cheek, the better. You want them all to be in the same place, so you have control over them. Use your tongue to move it over so it's inside the other cheek. Use your tongue to position it between the molars, then bite down to crack the shell.  Move it over from the storage cheek to the other cheek, bite it between your molars, spit out the shell, and eat the seed. This reduces the number of reloads per serving, and it's what the pros do.

Some believe Leo men are naturally full of themselves and enjoy being the center of attention. Stroking his ego a little, as long as you don't go overboard, can help you support your Leo man. Pay him sincere compliments every day. At social events, let him take the lead if he seems to want to. However, if you go overboard with the compliments and praise, a Leo man's ego may become over the top. Remind of things you sincerely like about him, but avoid hyperbolic language (i.e., "You're the best!") as this could make dating a Leo insufferable. Leo men are unlikely to stay with women who hold them back. Leos tend to pursue challenges easily and always try to see tasks through to their completion. If your Leo is working on a project, give him his space. If you try to get between a Leo and their passions, you're likely to lose. Leos can sometimes be a little self-depreciating. As they expect a lot from themselves, they sometimes get frustrated if they don't meet their own high expectations. As a Leo man's partner, it's important to remind him he doesn't have to be perfect. Stroke his ego a little when he's down on himself, as this will usually help him perk up. Say something like, "Your boss really values you because you're such an intelligent worker. One setback doesn't change that." Leos are charming by nature and will attract a lot of women. When out with a Leo, it's not uncommon to see other people hitting on your date. Leos dislike signs of insecurity, so try to keep any jealous in check. Remember, while Leos are charming, they are also very loyal. If your Leo man has chosen you, he's unlikely to stray.

Some believe Leos have a naturally fun-loving nature and look for significant others to match. When planning dates with a Leo, embrace your inner child. Instead of the conventional dinner and a movie, find something fun and unexpected to do.  For example, try doing something like mini golf or laser tag. A Leo will be delighted by these childlike games. Also, be spontaneous with dates. Surprise your Leo man with tickets to a concert at the last minute. Astrologers believe Leo men admire people who push themselves outside their comfort zone. If you want to keep a Leo man interested, do things that scare you a little on each date. If you're afraid of heights, for example, opt to get on the ferris wheel at a carnival.This is bound to impress a Leo man. Believers in astrology feel Leo men love to socialize, so don't do anything to hamper your Leo man's need to get out. Say yes to parties, concerts, and other events to keep your Leo man happy and entertained. Make sure not to take up all of your Leo man's attention at events. Leos like to socialize with a wide circle, so hang back while he talks to others at parties.

Some believe a clay mask can help penetrate the skin, removing oil and bacteria. This can help clear your skin fast, leaving your face with a fresher look. To make a clay mask, you will need cocoa powder, kaolin powder clay, and distilled water. You may be able to get these ingredients fast at a local health food store. Kaolin clay can be hard to find, so you may have to order it online.  Place the one tablespoon of clay and and one tablespoon of cocoa powder in a bowl and blend well. Add a tablespoon of water and blend into a paste. Use your fingers to apply a thin layer of the paste onto your face. Use your fingers to push the mask around your face in upward motions. Avoid getting too close to the eyes and lips. Keep the mask on for 15 minutes. Once the mask is slightly dry, wash it off of your face and pat your face dry with a clean, dry towel. Gel containing 50% aloe vera has been shown to make over-the-counter skin products more effective. These studies were conducted over the course of 8 weeks, so this will not necessarily clear your skin in a day. However, some advocates of home remedies and holistic medicine feel dabbing aloe vera gel on problems spots can cure acne fast. It's recommended you dab the gel on acne and blemishes, let it sit for an hour, and then wash it off. When it comes to clearing skin, over-the-counter options can help. While they do not promise clear skin in a day, they are effective for many people who want clear skin. It's a good idea to wash with over-the-counter products when you're trying masks and creams, as this can potentially make more natural approaches work faster, which can speed up the skin clearing process.  Go for products containing benzoyl peroxide as an active ingredient. You should also try products containing sulfur, resorcinol, or salicylic acid. Be careful with over-the-counter products if you're tying to clear your skin in a day. Side effects of these products may include things like redness and scaling. It may be a good idea to only use over-the-counter...

Some believe ghosts can affect the types of dreams you have. If you begin having intense nightmares, this can be a sign of a haunting. You may have nightmares about the supernatural and feel like something is chasing or attacking you in your sleep. Nightmares may be very vivid, to the point you can physically feel things in your dreams.  If you're experiencing things like shortness of breath during sleep, however, see a doctor. This can be a sign of a medical condition, such as sleep apnea, which should be ruled out before you attribute the issues to ghosts. Nightmares can also have psychological causes. If you've been stressed or upset lately, this may be causing your nightmares as well. Your own intuition can help guide you when evaluating whether your house is haunted. People who live in allegedly haunted homes sometimes feel like they're being watched. If you ever get a sense you're not alone, even if no one else is in the room, this can be a sign of a haunting.  If you have other people living with you, ask them if they experience the sense of being watched as well. Keep in mind, feelings of nervousness and paranoia can also be attributed to underlying mental health issues. This kind of anxiety should be evaluated by a mental health professional. Ghosts can allegedly affect personality and mood. If you or another household member becomes angry, irritable, or inexplicably sad, this may be a sign of a haunting. If negative moods tend to only surface in your home, this indicates there may be a ghost present. Low moods and irritability can be a sign of mental health issues, however. If you have a persistent low mood for a long time, see a therapist before attributing it to a haunting. Some people believe hauntings cause mild physical symptoms. For example, you may sometimes come down with small colds. Hauntings can also cause an overall feeling of weakness.  As these symptoms can be caused by a number of other ailments, however, see a doctor before attributing them to a haunting. If everyone in the house is...

Some believe that it's a myth to say that wetting your lips is necessary to whistle while others swear by it. If you're having a hard time producing a whistle, try moistening your lips. Think of it as wetting your finger before you produce the sound around the rim of a glass. By wetting, we don't mean drenched. Just moisten the inside of your lips with your tongue lightly, and get back to practicing. If there's a difference, this method may work for you. Some people have better luck sucking air in than blowing it out. However, for most people, this is much, much harder. That being said, the logistics of placing your tongue and mouth are the same; give it a go if the standard method is becoming frustrating. With the front of your tongue on the back of your front teeth, move it up or down just a smidge. Does it change the tone? Does one tone seem to be closer to whistling than another? Keep adjusting the very tip of your tongue until you find that one tone you can produce, no problem. Once you find the right spot for the tip of your tongue, start experimenting with moving the middle of your tongue. This changes to air flow and will thus change your pitch. Once you find other pitches, it's just a matter of knowing which position correlates to which note. Whistling takes time to master. It might be a while before you find the right shape to make with your mouth or how much air you should blow out. Concentrate on making one flat tone before you go worrying about pitch or volume, too. Ask a few friends how they do it; you may be surprised that they all have slightly different techniques. No one's mouth is the exact same shape and size, so it makes sense that we all have to whistle slightly different ways.

Some bidets have a built-in air dryer that you can use. Look for the "Dry" button next to the "Wash" and "Stop" features. If there's no air dryer, simply pat yourself dry with toilet paper. Many bidets have a towel on a ring positioned next to the bidet. This is meant for drying the genitals or the hands, but sometimes it is used for mopping up any splashes around the rim after rinsing it. Once you are off the bidet, run the jets at very low pressure for a few seconds to rinse the basin and keep the bidet fresh. This is a matter of discretion and common courtesy. Make sure to turn off the jets before you leave the bathroom. If you run the stream, you'll waste water. Use soap and water, as you would any time after using the toilet. If you can't find soap, use whatever's available.

Some boats have a raised seat for the person paddling, while others place it flush with the bottom. You may have to cross your legs and lean back against the back of the boat to find a sustainable rowing position. If they are adjustable, you should adjust them when you find a calm spot on the water or before you take off. The top of your hands should go on the top of the oar, with the blade perpendicular to the water’s surface. Your thumb can go on the end of the handle or wrap around the bottom. You will lean forward and your arms will go forward to move the oars backward and vice versa. Lean back and pull the oars back while they are completely submerged, until your arms are even with your chest. Focus on sitting as straight as possible while you row. The pushing motion should be as quick as possible, so that the oars aren’t out of the water for long. Then, the pulling motion should be as deep as is comfortable with your posture. Flipping the oars out of the water as quickly as possible will minimize wind resistance. Rowing with just the left oar will turn you counterclockwise. Rowing with only the right oar will turn you clockwise.

Some book clubs are mainly meant to be fun and relaxed. The book is discussed, but the literary discussion may not be very serious and in-depth. Other books clubs are more serious and highly academic. Choose what type of book club you’d like to have.  An academic book club would be more focused on aspects about the book such as meaning, plot, and character. A social book club would talk about the story and feelings about the story, but it wouldn’t be a problem if conversation got carried away from the book. You can focus on one literary genre, such as adult fiction, romance, or horror. Or, you can choose to read books from a variety of genres. Typically, however, it is a good idea to not mix genres too much so that the members will join knowing that they will be reading books they enjoy. Book clubs are typically held at meeting points, like homes, bookstores, or the local library. The meetings can change location every so often, but it is usually easier to keep them at one or a few regular locations. Contact the location to inquire about holding your book club there, or ask potential members if they could commit to hosting a club every so often. If a physical meeting point isn’t an option, you can also have an online book club. An online book club can be held on a chat room, social media application, or even through group video chats. An online meeting point is also a good option because it allows people from all over the world to join the club. If the meeting will be held at a physical location, consider how large or small you’d want your club to be. 8 to 16 members is a good number because it is not overwhelmingly large, but there will still be enough people for a meeting if a few members don’t show up.

Some boot styles are meant to have some slouch, but for most tall boots, you want to avoid pairs that gape around the top. Your boots should fit snugly yet comfortably. There should be enough room to tuck in skinny jeans or leggings, but not enough for your leg to slide back and forth inside the boot. This is especially true for women who consider their legs to be one of their problem areas. If you have thicker thighs, avoid boots that reach up to your mid-thigh. The horizontal line across the top will only make your leg look wider. Instead, opt for knee-high boots or boots that rise just above the knee. Tall women can get away with heeled and flat boots of all sizes. Shorter women may wish to stick with heeled boots, especially those that have a skinny heel, since these help to elongate the leg.  Shorter women should also stick with snug boots that closely hug the leg. Looser boots may make a leg look stouter. If you are shorter, remember that proportions matter. Pair a tall pair of boots with tucked in jeans and a short jacket. If you go for a long jacket, like a trench coat, you're going to be completely swallowed up. It can be a little difficult to pick the right colors, because boots come in so many different shades! However, there are some things you can consider to help you figure out which colors work best with your hair color and with your choices of outfits. Grey is good because of how flexible it is and cognac brown not only looks more expensive but goes with most outfits.  Consider what boots might be the most versatile for you, in terms of color. Black, of course, is always good, although you want to be careful with it. Black thigh-highs can be pretty intense and so aren't the best choices for work. One of the ways to pick the color for your boots is to match it to a shade of color on your head. Fashion advisers say that this make it so the eye travels the full length of your body, drawing attention back up from your boots to your hair again. So for example, if you have golden-blond hair you...
