Anxiety often occurs when we worry about the future or past. Spend a few minutes actively focusing on the present. Choose one simple task, such as washing the dishes or making a cup of tea. Take five minutes to focus intently on that one task, taking in as many details as you can. At the end of these five minutes, you will find yourself more at ease. Taking deep breaths is an excellent way to bring your focus into the present moment. Furthermore, focused breathing has been shown to slow your heart rate and lower your blood pressure, which both have a profound effect on your stress level.  Take 5-10 slow deep breaths. Concentrate on making your inhale the same length as your exhale. Inhale through your nose and exhale through either your nose or mouth. An affirmation is a positive statement about yourself. Affirmations can be written out, or recited in your mind, but they have the greatest impact when spoken aloud.  Prepare some affirmations ahead of time. Do you experience anxiety when you try to write? A good option might be “I am a good writer.” When anxiety and stress bubble up for you, calmly state your affirmation. It may help to look in the mirror as you do so. Other affirmation ideas include: I am a good person; I deserve to be happy; I am good at my job; and I am beautiful. Laughter has been proven to stimulate the production of beta-endorphins in the brain. In fact, even anticipating a laugh can stimulate this production. If you find yourself in a stressful moment, take some time to locate something funny. Even if you don’t laugh out loud, the anticipation might be enough!  Look for a humorous video. Recall a funny experience with friends. Listen to a comedy podcast. ” A body scan is an easy meditative practice that can relieve stress and help you feel grounded. This can be done in as little as 30 seconds. The idea is to bring awareness to each part of the body; not to judge or even to change it.  If you have space, lie down on the floor. (If you don’t have space, that’s okay. You can perform the...

Any basic DJ set-up must involve two record players for you to simultaneously play one song while beat-matching another, cross-fading, scratching, and doing all the little tricks that make DJ-ing an art. Without simultaneous turntables, it's hard to pull off on vinyl, beat matching etc. Good turntables are the single most important place to spend your money.  A good starter turntable is the Audio Technica 1240, which is somewhat cheaper than AT's high-end models, but is still high quality. It also features USB inputs to allow for digital-analog interface. It's a good professional record player for the beginner.     It's important that you do not get a belt-drive turntable for DJing. While perfectly useful for listening to vinyl at your house, belt-driven turntables feature a separate motor that drives a rubber belt, which is used to spin the plate and the record. This means you can't scratch or pause the record player while you're spinning. Direct-drive motors are directly attached to the plate, making them ideal for DJs.    Depending on your record player, you might need a pre-amp to boost sound. Some record players have built-in pre-amps that make external varieties somewhat obsolete, but it's best to be sure. When you purchase your turntables, make sure to find out whether or not you'll need a preamp to go with them. Pre-amps can run anywhere from $50-500, and while it's nowhere near the most essential item in your set-up, a good pre-amp has everything to do with the quality of the sound you're going to get. Without good quality sound, nobody is going to dance to your killer sets. Keep that in mind when you're buying your gear.    Since a record player is essentially a needle scratching into vinyl grooves to create sound, there are a lot of little things that'll help to optimize the sound quality and the durability of your set-up. There's a lot to balance all at once. You'll need things like:  record cleaning fluid and a vinyl brush     extra styluses and cartridges     an anti-static slip-mat for the...

Any chat or conversation is a two-way street; you need to be able to express your own thoughts and opinions while listening to what the girl says too. Talk about yourself in the conversation. For example, if you’re discussing music, you’ll need to share your own opinions and thoughts about your favorite songs.  It’s important that you don’t go overboard and dominate the conversation, or lecture the girl on one of your favorite topics. Try to keep the chat balanced; each of you should talk roughly the same amount. Everyone likes to receive thoughtful, sincere compliments. Use the occasional compliment as a part of your chat with a girl. You can do this to show your interest in keeping the conversation going, and your appreciation for the girl as a person. Say something like:  “That was a very articulate thing to say; I like how you worded that answer.” “You’re very funny—I think we have similar senses of humor.” While sincere compliments are fine, pick-up lines or sexual advances are not. Avoid these types of comments in your conversation. It’s polite to show personal interest in the girl you’re chatting with. Questions will also help keep the conversation moving, and allow the two of you to find common ground. Ask questions about where she grew up; what kind of music, food, and TV she likes; where she would like to travel to on vacation; or what books she likes to read.  Don’t go overboard with questions; you need to show some restraint. Asking too many questions can be seen as prying, and you may motivate the girl to cut the conversation short. Asking too many questions can also be seen as a sign that you have nothing to talk about and are desperate for topics. When talking with someone (especially if it’s someone you find attractive or don’t know very well), it’s easy to become nervous or to feel anxious that the conversation isn’t going well. Stay relaxed while talking, and take a deep breath if you feel your heart start to race. For all you know, the girl you’re talking to could be just as anxious about...

Any chemical reaction involves two categories of chemicals — products and reactants. Products are the chemicals created by the reaction, while reactants are the chemicals that interact, combine, or break down to make the product. In other words, the reactants of a reaction are like the ingredients in a recipe, while the products are like the finished dish. To find ∆H for a reaction, first identify its products and reactants. As an example, let’s say we want to find the enthalpy of reaction for the formation of water from hydrogen and oxygen: 2H2 (Hydrogen) + O2 (Oxygen)  →   2H2O (Water). In this equation, H2 and O2 are the reactants and H2O is the product. Next, find the masses of your reactants. If you don't know their masses and aren't able to weigh the reactants in a scientific balance, you can use their molar masses to find their actual masses. Molar masses are constants that can be found on standard periodic tables (for individual elements) and in other chemistry resources (for molecules and compounds). Simply multiply the molar mass of each reactant by the number of moles used to find the reactants' masses. In our water example, our reactants are hydrogen and oxygen gases, which have molar masses of 2g and 32 g, respectively. Since we used 2 moles of hydrogen (signified by the "2" coefficient in the equation next to H2) and 1 mole of oxygen (signified by no coefficient next to O2), we can calculate the total mass of the reactants as follows:2 × (2g) + 1 × (32g) = 4g + 32g = 36g Next, find the specific heat of the product you're analyzing. Every element or molecule has a specific heat value associated with it: these values are constants and are usually located in chemistry resources (like, for instance, in tables at the back of a chemistry textbook). There are several different ways to measure specific heat, but for our formula, we'll use value measured in the units joule/gram °C.  Note that if your equation has multiple products, you'll need to perform the enthalpy calculation for the component...

Any clothing with burn holes or severe damage should be discarded.  Sort clothes into piles based on their fabric types and washing instructions. Beware of any clothing that are dry-clean only, as these must be professionally treated. This can be done by taking clothing outside and giving it a gentle shake or by attaching the plain attachment to your vacuum cleaner and running it just over the surface of the clothing. Never use the brush attachment with your vacuum cleaner if removing the soot from clothing. The brush bristles can force particles of soot deeper into the clothing. Controlled research has shown that fire damaged clothing is best cleaned by different methods according to the fabric content. Using a specific cleaning method tailored to the fabric content of your clothing will help salvage as much clothing as possible. Visibly smoke damaged clothing should be fully restored after 5 launderings.  Use liquid detergent to return clothes to original state if they are 65/35 polyester-cotton blend, 50/50 polyester-cotton blend, or pure cotton. Use powder detergent and bleach (for bleachable clothing only) for clothing that is 65/35 polyester-cotton blend, 50/50 polyester-cotton blend, or pure cotton. Be aware that dry cleaning is non-effective with clothing that is 65/35 polyester-cotton blend, 50/50 polyester-cotton blend, or pure cotton. Recognize that 100% polyester fabrics may never be fully returned to their original state. After your clothing is restored to its original appearance, it may still have a residual smoke odor. Washing your clothes in warm water with different detergents for 1-5 launderings can help you remove this smell.  Use powder detergent or liquid detergent (with our without bleach) to get the smoke odor out of any type of washable clothing. Avoid using household deodorizers to remove the smell. These will only temporarily mask the smell. It will not fully remove the smoke odor from clothing. It is better to wash any clothing that is able to be washed yourself where you can put...

Any compliment you say, you have to absolutely mean. Girls will always be able to tell if you don’t mean it. They may not call you on it, but they’ll know and it will make them feel awful and awkward. This is the main key to being able to compliment girls without offending or upsetting them. If you respect them as people, as valuable human beings with worthwhile opinions, feelings, hopes and dreams, who are capable of doing everything that you can do, then any compliment that comes out of your mouth will probably be fine. If you’re still worried, think about how the compliment would make you feel. Don’t just look at the surface of the compliment...think about the things that she worries about and the experiences she’s had. Think about what the compliment could mean if taken out of context. Think about how you would feel if someone you didn't know said that to you. If it would make you feel uncomfortable, it’ll probably make her uncomfortable too. You need to compliment her at appropriate times, like when you’re on a date, or you’re having a conversation related to what you want to compliment her on. This also means pairing what you want to compliment her on with the situation that you’re in. This is very important, as doing this in the wrong situation can be very demeaning. For example, don’t compliment her on her physical appearance after she’s just given a presentation (unless it’s to say that she looked fierce and was commanding the whole room). Instead compliment her on her hard work, her great way of phrasing the information, or her clear intelligence shown in how she put the presentation together. Complimenting her physical appearance in this situation would be demeaning, but complimenting her work is empowering. You don’t always have to say a compliment for it to come across loud and clear. A very effective way to compliment her can be to show your compliment in how you react to something that she’s done or said.  For example, if she’s just worked very hard on something, you can compliment her hard...

Any computer that comes with a CD burner will also come with a CD burning program, such as Windows Media Player or Sonic RecordNow. If you do not have a burning program you can find many free ones online, such as ImgBurn, BurnAware, or CDBurner XP. Nearly every modern computer has a CD burner. If you do not know if your computer can burn CDs, check out "Device Manager" in the Start Menu (Windows) or Finder (Mac). Double click on "DVD/CD-ROM Drive," and look for the extension "CD-RW." The RW stands for Re-Write, which means you can burn CDs. On your desktop, make a folder, title it something memorable, and drag all of the podcasts you want to burn into the folder.  If you are having trouble finding them, check the "Downloads" folder, which is the first place they will go if downloaded from the internet. You can drag and drop the files directly from many music players into the folder as well. Make sure that it can fit the audio you plan on burning-- most CDs hold roughly 80 minutes of audio. The CD should be "writable" or "rewriteable," which are simply other expressions for a blank CD. If your audio is too long you have several options:  Convert the songs to mp3s. These files are smaller but sound worse. Not all players can run mp3 files, especially many car stereos. Use multiple CD's. Make smaller folders, one for each CD. Limit each folder to under 80 minutes or so of audio.  Cut the songs into smaller bits. You can use a basic, free audio editing software like Audacity to open the audio, cut it, then save it as two shorter podcasts. They are all different, but most of them have similar interfaces:  Select the files or folder for the CD. Choose your settings (sound quality, mp3 or regular audio, etc.) Burn the CD.

Any dish soap you have in your kitchen will work: Dawn, Joy, Palmolive, etc. Use this method on white bras only. The bleach in the soap will remove color from dyed material, so don't use this for patterned or solid colored bras. Saturate the stain completely. Be sure to get the edges of the stain as well. You can even use an old toothbrush to rub the soap into the fabric. You can add a mild laundry detergent to help remove the soap. You may want to wash the bra again to ensure all the soap and detergent will be removed. Do not wring out the bra, but gently press the water out of it. Try gently rolling up the bra in a clean towel to remove excess water. The sun is an excellent bleaching agent, so this will help remove any lingering stains. Using a dryer to dry your bras can damage the fabric, including the elastic and underwire,  and leave your bras misshapen.

Any drug or substance that increases the amount of serotonin in the body (or decreases the breakdown of serotonin in the body) can cause dangerously high levels of serotonin in your blood and potentially cause serotonin syndrome. There are a number of drugs, mainly antidepressants, that can do this. This can happen especially if over-used intentionally or non-intentionally. Serotonin syndrome most often occurs when combining medication from different classes. These include:  Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs): These are antidepressants and include drugs like citalopram (Celexa), fluoxetine (Prozac, Sarafem), fluvoxamine, paroxetine (Paxil), and sertraline (Zoloft). Serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs): These are a class of  antidepressants similar to the SSRIs and include drugs like trazodone, duloxetine (Cymbalta), and venlafaxine (Effexor). Monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs): This group includes antidepressants like isocarboxazid (Marplan) and phenelzine (Nardil). Other antidepressants: These can include drugs like Bupropion (Wellbutrin, Zyban),  and the Tricyclic antidepressants, including amitriptyline and nortriptyline (Pamelor). Medications for migraines: This class includes the triptans (Axert, Amerge, Imitrex), carbamazepine (Tegretol), and valproic acid (Depakene). Pain medications: These include drugs like cyclobenzaprine (Amrix and Fexmid), fentanyl (Duragesic), meperidine (Demerol), and tramadol (Ultram). Mood stabilizers: The main drug in this category is Lithium (Lithobid). Anti-nausea medications: These include the drugs  granisetron (Kytril), metoclopramide (Reglan), droperidol (Inapsine), and ondansetron (Zofran). Antibiotics and antiviral medications: This class includes Linezolid (Zyvox), which is  an antibiotic and Ritonavir (Norvir). Ritonavir is an antiretroviral used to treat HIV/AIDS. OTC cough and cold medications containing dextromethorphan: This group includes Delsym, Mucinex DM, and other OTC medications. Recreational drugs: This group includes...

Any excess fabric on the inside of the brim or flue should be trimmed away with sewing scissors or shears. While this is not strictly essential since the excess fabric should be hidden, it might make the hat more comfortable to wear. You can leave the top hat plain and wear it as is, or you can add decorative elements to it to personalize it or make it usable for a costume.  If you are using the hat for cosplay or costume purposes, study pictures of the character you are trying to dress as and decorate the hat accordingly. If you want the top hat to look more “classic,” you could try embellishing it by attaching a black satin ribbon around the base of the flue. To make the top hat more versatile, add embellishments that are removable. Your top hat should now be complete and ready to wear.

Any food scraps or stains need to be removed prior to storage as these tend to attract insects as their own food source. Also remove dirt, smudges and any other source of stains. The safest method for cleaning a quilt is vacuuming, followed by airing, then washing. Each approach is discussed in the following steps. The best vacuum is a hand-held one, such as a dust buster. Alternatively, use the upholstery nozzle of a standard household vacuum cleaner, covered with muslin/cheesecloth or similar light fabric. Set the vacuum to the lowest level and sweep it back and forth across the quilt to collect loose fluff, debris and dirt. Check that the quilt looks okay before deciding whether anything further is needed before storage. If the quilt is antique, place a nylon or fiberglass screen across the quilt before vacuuming; this will protect the fibers from the strong suction. If the only noticeable problem with the quilt is that it smells musty or unpleasant, airing might be the answer. To air the quilt:  Wait for a dry day without too much wind. Find a suitable shady spot outside. The spot should be fairly clean, such as concrete, nice grass or fresh new leaves, etc. Don't choose a spot where there is a lot of dust liable to blow over the quilt. Throw a large cotton sheet across the ground. This will keep the quilt separate from the surface, preventing any potential stains. Lay the quilt over the sheet, taking care not to overlap at the edges. Alternatively, a quilt that is in good, strong condition can be laid over a clothesline. If so, throw the base sheet over several of the lines of the clothesline (as if you were laying the table), then drape the quilt across the sheet, over the several lines. This method will probably use up all of the clothesline, so avoid doing it on a usual washing day. Avoid pinning the quilt to the clothesline as usually done for drying clothing, as this will stretch the stitches and fibers too much. This requires full knowledge on your behalf of what can happen to the quilt, and given...

Any glass bottle will do for your glass art. This includes, but isn't limited to, soda bottles, beer bottles, wine bottles, condiment bottles, perfume bottles, and so on. Before your chosen bottle is ready to melt, you need to make sure it is clean and dry. This includes any labels or even fingerprints that may be on it!  Labels that are difficult to remove can be soaked in hot, soapy water. A good soak for a few hours or overnight should make the labels easier to peel off.  You'll also have to remove any glue that remains from the label. After a soak in hot, soapy water, you can usually scrape the glue off without much ado. A tool like a putty knife, wallpaper scraper, or an unwanted credit card can help. If your bottles have labels that appear painted, like Corona or Belvedere bottles, you can melt your bottle with these still in place. However, after melting, those labels will be permanently melted to your bottle. Kilns can become dirty over time, collecting dust and bits of debris from other projects. This dirtiness can have a negative impact on your kiln's heating elements and can severely shorten the working life of your kiln. To prevent an expensive and unnecessary cost to yourself, before you use your kiln you should thoroughly clean it according to the manual's instructions. While you're cleaning you'll have a perfect chance to give your kiln a quick safety inspection.

Any good combination of cardio and weight-training will help tone and shape your body, but in order to achieve a badonkadonk, you need to focus on your gluteus maximus, the muscle that forms the underlying shape of your butt. Any motion that pushes your body up engages the glutes. It is possible to actually make your butt bigger and rounder by encouraging your glutes to grow through specific muscle-building exercises. An effective way to build your glutes (or any muscle for that matter) is to lift heavy weights 2 to 3 times each week. For weighted exercises, use as much weight as you can handle with good form for 5 sets of 5 reps each.  Make sure that the weights are heavy enough that the last rep of each set is very slow and difficult to complete. Some fitness experts argue that the popular advice of doing 8 to 12 reps is outdated, and that it’s more effective to complete fewer reps (no more than 5) with heavier weights. Squats — particularly barbell squats — are the most popularly cited exercise for build a large, shapely backside. Before you add weights to your routine, however, you need to perfect a basic squat:  Starting position: stand with your back straight, your chest out, and your head up, with your chin parallel to the floor. Your feet should be hip-width apart, with your toes pointing slightly outward. Squatting down: ensure that you keep that posture (straight back, chest out, head up) as you bend your knees and slowly lower your butt toward the ground. It may help you avoid slouching if you push your knees outward and focus your weight into your heels.  As you lower your butt toward the ground, ensure that your knees do not hang over your toes. Imagine a line running across your toes, and do not let your knees go past that. To do otherwise could cause injury. People generally stop when their legs are bent at a 90-degree angle, with the upper legs parallel to the floor; however, you can — and if possible, should — go lower!  Once you are down as far as you can go, return to your starting...

Any irritation of your scalp will burn when the relaxer is applied and shampooing your hair could leave tiny micro-abrasions on your scalp. You can still comb your hair, just make sure not to comb too close to your scalp. Relaxer is a powerful chemical that can cause damage to your hair if you don’t use it right. The instructions will have specific application methods and treatment times so that you don’t damage your hair. Consider going to a professional instead of doing it yourself. Wear a pair of rubber gloves to protect your skin from the caustic relaxer chemicals. Pour the chemicals together in the cup that’s provided until it’s well mixed and turns into a white paste. Section off hair in the back of your head wide-toothed comb. Start at the ends of your hair and move your way to your roots and edges. Once you have full coverage over that section of hair, take another section and repeat the process until you've applied the relaxer to all of your hair.  You may want to have someone help apply the relaxer to your hair. Your body heat near your edges will make the relaxer work quicker, so don’t apply the relaxer to your roots or edges first or your hair will get overly relaxed or damaged. The instructions should tell you the exact time you should leave the relaxer in your hair. If you notice any extreme burning or irritation, wash the relaxer out of your hair with clarifying shampoo. If your relaxer came with shampoo, use the one that came in the package. If not, then you need to use a neutralizing shampoo because it’s the only kind that will fully wash the relaxer out. Once you get out of the shower, comb your hair and it should be straight!  The relaxer should not stay in your hair for more than 10-15 minutes. On average, relaxer will keep your hair straight for 6-8 weeks. Follow up with conditioner and rinse it out with cold water.

Any leafy herb or citrus zest can be added using this method. Here are a few ideas, along with estimated amounts to use for every 1 cup (240 mL) sugar:   Rosemary, dried rosebuds, or dried culinary lavender are all aromatic flavors. Lavender will produce an especially strong scent. Set aside about 3 tablespoons (45 mL) per cup (240 mL) sugar.   Mint makes a sugar that works well in baking and cocktails. Try using 1/2 cup (120 mL) of loosely packed mint leaves.   Basil is a more unusual flavor for sweets, and may pair well with lime. Use about 1.5 tbsp (22 mL).   Lemon, lime, orange, or any other citrus fruit can be zest and added to sugar. Zest the fruit's colored outer rind, avoiding the white pith. Use the zest from two fruits for a moderate flavor, or several more for a stronger one. Fresh leaves and citrus rind should be dried before adding, to avoid clumping the sugar with moisture. There are several ways to accomplish this:  Lay them out on a layer of paper towels, without overlaps, and microwave in 30-second bursts. Check between each burst, and remove when the herbs are crisp.  Turn an oven to the lowest setting, lay the herbs on a baking sheet, and warm for about 20 minutes, or until dry. Using an oven at a higher setting is not recommended, due to the risk of burning the herbs.  Leave the herbs in a location with a light breeze, to dry for 8—24 hours. Direct sunlight may reduce the flavor. Sugar will infuse much more quickly if the other ingredients are ground in a spice grinder or coffee grinder. This will also produce a more evenly colored and textured end product.  A food processor might work, but it may not turn the ingredients fully into powder.  If using dried lavender, you may prefer to leave the flowers in the sugar whole, and strain them out before using the sugar. The lavender flowers (or scoops of the lavender sugar) can then be used to infuse a couple more batches of sugar before they lose their potency. White granulated sugar is less likely to clump than most other sugars, making it a...

Any light pollution can make it difficult to find the Andromeda Galaxy. It is best to go away from any urban areas, street lights, or lit parks. Take a hike onto a mountain, go out into an isolated field, or find another area without any light pollution. The Andromeda Galaxy is not as bright as other stars around it. When you go out to stargaze, give yourself fifteen minutes to adjust to the darkness. You may realize that you can see more stars than you could at first. The position of galaxies, stars, and constellations can change with the seasons. Look for a star chart designed for the current month.  You can often find star charts for free online. They are also sometimes sold at planetariums or by astronomical societies. The star chart may also tell you what the best of time night to see the Andromeda Galaxy is based on the season. For example, in September and October, the Andromeda Galaxy will rise in the eastern sky of the northern hemisphere. By midnight, it should be directly above your head.  If you live in the southern hemisphere, you might look towards the northern horizon in December to see it. It may not rise high in the sky. There are many apps that can help you find the Andromeda Galaxy and other stars. These will adjust the star charts based on your position, hemisphere, season, and time of night. These include the Star Chart app, NightSky app, and GoSkyWatch. If you can find the Big Dipper, look for the bright star next to it. This is called Polaris or the North Star. Across Polaris from the Big Dipper will be Cassiopeia. Cassiopeia contains five stars in a “W” shape. The right side of this "W" will point down directly at the Andromeda Galaxy. Pegasus looks like a giant rectangle. You should see two lines of stars extending from the upper left-hand corner of this star. This is the Andromeda constellation. Keep in mind that the Andromeda constellation is separate from the Andromeda Galaxy. The Andromeda Galaxy lies between the Pegasus constellation and the point of Cassiopeia. It should look...

Any microwave-safe mug or bowl will work fine, but those with circular, flat bottoms work best. You'll end up with an egg in a convenient patty shape, perfect for serving on toast or an English muffin. Dip a paper towel in a little bit of vegetable or olive oil and smear the oil around the inside of the bowl. You could also spray the mug or bowl with non-stick cooking spray. Melting butter into the bowl is another option. Be careful so you don't break the yolk. Just pour it right on on top of the egg. Use a microwave-safe plate or paper towel. This will help prevent any splatters from dirtying your microwave oven. Place it in the microwave and cook it on the highest power setting for 35 seconds. When it's done cooking, remove the paper towel and inspect the egg. If the white is still liquid, put it back in the microwave and cook for an additional 10 or 15 seconds. Microwave wattages will vary, so adjust these cooking times as needed based on your microwave's power. When the white is no longer runny, it is done cooking.  This cooking temperature results in a medium-cooked. If you want the yolk to stay runny, cook the egg at 50 percent power for about 60 seconds. Keep cooking until the white is set but the yolk is still runny.  For a hard-cooked egg (similar to a hard-boiled egg) cook on the highest power setting for 60 seconds. Uncover the bowl and run a knife around the edge of the egg to loosen it. It should slide out easily onto your toast or a plate. Serve the egg as desired.

Place it in the microwave and cook it for 45 seconds, then remove it from the microwave. Remove the cover and stir the mixture to fluff up the eggs. Add a tablespoon of shredded cheese, a small handful of scallions, or another topping if you'd like. Check to see that the egg is set. If it still looks runny, give it another 15 seconds. Use a fork to fluff it up. Your scrambled egg is ready to eat.

Any nasty smell will dissipate dramatically if it has the chance to air out. Before, during, and after cleaning out the vomit, be sure to let your car air out a bit with the doors open.  Air out the car in your driveway or a parking lot, but not in your garage. There's not enough air circulation in a garage for this to be effective. The longer you let the vomit sit in the car, the more the fluid will soak into your upholstery. In hot months, the vomit might actually putrefy and create an even more rotten smell if you just let it sit there. Baking soda is a classic stand-by for eliminating all kinds of nasty smells; it actually absorbs the smells and eliminates it. You can use baking soda with a  bit of essential oil mixed in to eliminate the smell of vomit from your car.  Mix a few tablespoons of baking soda together with a few drops of your favorite essential oil. Any nice-smelling oil will do, but lemon or orange is especially good at eliminating smells. You can simply shake the baking soda and oil together in a plastic container with a lid. After cleaning up the vomit, moisten the spot and sprinkle the baking soda and essential oil mixture on top.  Cover the surface of the area that had vomit on it, and let it sit for ten minutes. Then, use a vacuum with a hose attachment to vacuum up the baking soda. If the smell is still in your car, you might try masking it with a commercial car air freshener. You can try the type that hangs from your rearview mirror, the gel that sticks to your console, or a powder that you sprinkle on and vacuum up. Any of these can leave your car smelling nice and fresh.

Any old Android, iPhone, or internet-capable iPod should do the trick--anything that can run an app and access the internet.  Bear in mind that the phone itself will be taking the footage. Thus, you won't be able to use the phone for anything else while you're filming. It's best to use a phone that you don't need on a regular basis; you may be able to acquire a used phone from a friend or from a used-phone retailer. Make sure that you have an AC power charger for the phone. It will be very energy-intensive to record a constant video stream, and you'll need to keep the phone charging. You should be able to find a suitable program from your phone using the App Store or the Google Play Store. Search for "webcam app".  Look for apps like IP Webcam, MobileWebCam, DroidCam, or iCam. Read reviews before you download any app, and make sure that you're downloading something safe. Many of these apps are free, and the developers make their money from ads. Don't worry about paying for a more expensive app; a free program should be sufficient. You will need to give the webcam app full control of your phone's camera, meaning that no other app can use the camera while the webcam app is running. This will not harm your phone or its camera. You will need this to link the phone to your computer. Make sure that the two devices are connected to the same wireless network. You will be able to remotely watch and record the feed. Use any video player with stream compatibility, such as VLC or Windows Media Player.  If you are using VLC, click "Open Network Stream" on the "Media" menu, and enter the URL that shows up on the phone's webcam app. Once you enter this URL, you should be given the option to connect to the phone's camera. Free programs like VLC and Windows Media Player are great for watching a webcam stream through your computer, but you won't be able to record high-quality footage. If you're really serious about surveillance, consider looking into pricier webcam studio software. The phone will need to sit next to a charger,...

Any over-the-counter non-irritating moisturizing agent can be helpful in eczema (because, as previously mentioned, eczema tends to go hand-in-hand with dry skin).  If over-the-counter moisturizers are insufficient, speak to your doctor about prescription moisturizing options. Often ointments can be more effective than over-the-counter lotions, as they form a stronger barrier to keep the skin's moisture in. They are also usually less irritating to your skin. Over-the-counter antihistamines may provide temporary relief from some of the symptoms of eczema, although they should be used with other treatments such as moisturizing. Stronger antihistamines may need to be prescribed by your doctor. Antihistamines that are also sedatives, such as diphenhydramine (Benadryl) may help you sleep better, which could help with itching. Consult with your pediatrician before giving antihistamines to children, especially sedatives. An example of this would be hydrocortisone (the most commonly used), although there are also some stronger ones your doctor can prescribe if needed.  These work by diminishing the skin's "immune response," which in turn reduces inflammation, the size of the rash itself, and the itchiness. Corticosteroid creams or ointments applied to the skin are helpful and effective treatments for eczema, but you should always use them only as recommended by your doctor. Improper use of corticosteroids can cause infection, skin damage, or further irritation, among other side effects. Do not share your prescription creams with others, even if they also have eczema. Acupuncture is sometimes effective for relieving pain, and studies suggest that acupuncture may help reduce itchiness from eczema. Acupuncture generally does not produce severe side effects, so it may be a good choice if you are having trouble managing the itch with medication alone.  Look for an acupuncturist who is licensed by the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (NCCAOM). This non-profit agency helps regulate the...

Any person can benefit from knowing "risk factors" that can increase your chance of having problems with this condition. Being aware of your risk can help you recognize and treat it effectively.  The older you are the more likely you are to suffer from tendinitis.  Occupational factors such as repetitive motions, awkward positions, frequent overhead reaching, vibration, and forceful exertion can increase your risk. Factory and construction workers may be particularly at risk.  Playing sports such as baseball, basketball, bowling, golf, running, swimming, or tennis can increase your risk.  If you have previously injured the area (sprain, strain, fracture etc.), you are more likely to get tendonitis. Tendinitis has many different symptoms that can range from mild to severe. Identifying potential symptoms that you have can help you get effective treatment as soon as possible.  You may experience pain and stiffness along your tendon or joint, especially in the morning.  You may experience pain along the tendon or joint that becomes more severe with activity.  You may experience severe pain the day following exercise or strenuous activity.  You may experience mild swelling.  Your tendons may feel noticeably thicker. Pay attention to your body for any pain that is present along your tendon or joints or if you are experiencing problems moving any region of your body. These symptoms can indicate tendinitis and should be treated to prevent further pain.  You can have pain that is mild to severe. Some points may be more tender than others depending on the exact location of the tendinitis.  You may have a limited range of motion in the affected area, including a decreased mobility. Tendinitis can occur on parts of your body that often have other injuries, such as the knee or elbow. Learning how to distinguish other pain from tendinitis in these parts of your body can help narrow the scope of treatment.  Tendinitis may present similar symptoms to arthritis. Like arthritis it is often present in joints such as the...

Any person can experience malabsorption, but certain factors can increase your risk of having problems with this condition. Being aware of your risk can help you recognize and treat it effectively.  If your body doesn’t produce certain digestive enzymes, you may be at risk for developing malabsorption. Congenital and/or structural defects and diseases of the intestinal tract, pancreas, gallbladder, and liver may increase your risk for malabsorption. Inflammation, infection and injury to your intestinal tract may increase your risk for malabsorption. Removal of portions of your intestine may also contribute to the condition. Radiation therapy can put you at risk for malabsorption. Certain conditions and diseases such as HIV, cancer, chronic liver disease, Crohn’s disease, and celiac disease can put you at greater risk for malabsorption.  The use of certain antibiotics, including tetracycline and cholestyramine, and drugs such as laxatives can increase your risk for malabsorption. If you have recently traveled to Southeast Asia, the Caribbean, India, or other countries that commonly face intestinal parasite problems, you may have been infected by a parasite that causes malabsorption. Malabsorption has many different symptoms that can range from mild to severe and are different depending on what nutrients your body has failed to absorb. Identifying potential symptoms that you have can help you get effective treatment as soon as possible.  Gastrointestinal issues such as chronic diarrhea, bloating, cramping, and flatulence are the most common symptoms. There may also be excessive fat in your stools, causing them to change in color and become more bulky. Changes in weight, especially weight loss, is a common symptom. Fatigue and weakness may accompany malabsorption. Anemia or excess bleeding are symptoms of malabsorption. Anemia can be a result of lack of vitamin B12, folate or iron. Insufficient vitamin K may cause excessive bleeding. Dermatitis and night blindness can indicate inadequate absorption of vitamin A....

Any person who owns a Rottweiler should have a good basic knowledge about the breed. Not only will this help you train your Rottweiler properly, but also keep it happy and healthy.  Well-bred Rottweilers are large and athletic. Male Rottweilers can grow up to 27 inches tall at the shoulder and weigh 100 – 135 pounds. Female Rottweilers are slightly smaller: up to 25 inches tall at the shoulder and weighing 80 – 100 pounds. Rottweilers have a thick, glossy black coat with tan patches on the body. You should brush the coat every few days to keep it glossy and healthy. Rottweilers were originally bred to herd cattle, protect their owners and guard resources. Because of this, they got the name “butcher’s dog.” Before you can train your Rottweiler, it’s important to learn about the temperament of the breed. While they are loyal and loving, they can also be aggressive. Understanding your Rottweiler will help you successfully train it.  Rottweilers are very social animals and bond well with their human family. They don’t like to be left alone or isolated. It’s not uncommon for them to have separation anxiety Rottweilers need a lot of physical and mental stimulation. Long walks and obedience training sessions will stimulate them and help prevent destructive behaviors such as digging, chewing, and whining. Rottweilers are naturally territorial and will be very protective of you. Rottweilers may act dominantly towards other animals and people. Proper training, which includes socialization, will help minimize this behavior.  Rottweilers may exhibit aggressive behavior if they are trained that this is acceptable behavior or if they are not trained properly.  Rottweilers reach maturity very slowly, usually at the age of two. This can mean they will be hyperactive and mischievous for a longer period than other dogs. They may also chew on articles more frequently until they reach maturity. Develop a training plan that you can follow consistently. Making a plan will give you a chance to consider your dog’s personality and...

Any piece of normal paper should do for the purposes of cleaning your eraser. You should avoid paper with a glossy finish, as this kind will be less fibrous. Less fibrous paper could result in your eraser gunk smearing over more of your eraser making more work for you.  Paper that is coarse and heavy will allow you to scrub it harder with your eraser without fear of tearing the paper. Coarse paper will also cause your eraser to come apart from the eraser in flecks or eraser shavings. This is ideal, as these shavings will part the gunk from the rest of your paper. You should avoid writing on paper that already has writing on it, including words that have been printed onto paper with a computer printer. The ink from the printer, from pens, or graphite from pencils could cause more gunk to build up while you’re trying to remove it. Printer paper, while somewhat smoother than an ideal sheet of eraser purifying paper, should work well enough for purging gunk from your eraser. This paper also has the added benefit of being bright white in color. This will make it easier to tell when your gunk is gone and the eraser erases clean. Inspect your eraser carefully and note the areas that are discolored. These are the areas you will want to target. When the dark spots on your eraser have been removed, your eraser should erase as good as new. Rub your eraser firmly against the clean paper you have chosen and be sure you avoid crossing over the darkened marks that rub off on your paper.  Feel the eraser gunk with your fingers. Sometimes the graphite gunk will be soft, like putty. In this case, you might be able to cut through some of the gunk with your fingers or nails. Be careful not to spread the gunk around or push it deeper into the eraser with your fingers. Doing so will make your eraser cleaning more difficult. As you scrub your eraser on the clean page, eraser shavings should come free of the eraser, and with these so too should come the graphite gunk. Brush away shavings regularly to prevent them and the gunk they...

Any podcast found on the iTunes store will show up automatically, but you'll need to move any files found elsewhere into iTunes so that you can burn them. To do so, click the "Download" link on the podcast you want. When it is finished downloading, copy and paste it into the folder "Automatically Add to iTunes," which is found in "My Music." This will place the podcast directly in iTunes, and even sort it for you, making your life much easier later. iTunes, which has the largest library of podcasts on the planet, is the easiest way to burn podcasts to discs. It can be downloaded for free online. If you prefer not to use iTunes, there are other ways to burn podcasts outlined below. CDs are burned on iTunes through playlists. Once you've created one and put on all the songs and/or podcasts you want, your computer will write the playlist to the CD as long as you have a computer with a CD burner. Your playlists page is found by clicking "Playlist" from the top of iTunes. Almost all modern computers have a CD burner. If you do not know if your computer can burn CDs, check out "Device Manager" in the Start Menu (Windows) or Finder (Mac). Double click on "DVD/CD-ROM Drive," and look for the extension "CD-RW." This means you can burn CDs. From the Playlist page, hit + and select "New Playlist." This will then bring you back to your music, and a gray bar will open up on the side of the screen. This is where you drag the podcasts or songs into the playlist to be burned. If you have the podcast already selected in iTunes, you can also press Shift+Control+N (Windows) or Shift+Command+N (Mac) to automatically make a playlist with all the selected (highlighted blue) songs/podcast. You are able to select multiple at once while holding the "command/ctrl" key. Remember, however, that most CD's can only hold roughly 80 minutes of high-quality audio.

Any preparation for your speech is better than none. If you can find a few minutes before you're put on the spot, jot down a couple of notes about what you want to say. These can be as simple as a few bullet points to remind yourself of the main points you want to say to keep on track. If you don't have time to write even a few notes, just make a quick mental outline, telling yourself something like: “First I'll say how generous Jim is. I'll tell the story about the time he fixed my flat tire in the middle of the night, then the one about how he baked me a birthday cake when I was sick in bed with the flu.” People are more likely to remember what comes at the beginning of your speech and at the very end rather than what's in the middle. Take advantage of this and give your strongest content at the beginning and end. For example, you could open and/or close with:  A moving story A convincing fact or statistic An inspiring quotation This is another formula that will help you organize your ideas without rambling. Start with the positive aspects of an issue, follow with the drawbacks, and then state your own position. For example, imagine you are asked to speak on the benefits of casual Fridays:  Begin by saying that casual Fridays boost morale, lead to greater productivity, and will make your company seem up to date. Follow up by acknowledging that casual Fridays mean that employees will appear less professional at the end of the week, and that they may need guidance on what kind of casual clothing is acceptable. End with your position that since most client meetings happen early in the week, casual Fridays overall will be good for your company and not create a disruption. If you're in a bind and can't think of something to say, or just feel too nervous about giving speech, think of yourself as the moderator of a discussion rather than a speaker. Open the floor up to others, and just field their questions.  You could start off with something like: “I know we've all been thinking about casual Fridays, and there...

Any present is worth a "thank you." Look the gift giver in the eye and be as direct as you would with any other show of gratitude.  You might say, "thank you! I really appreciate this." You may comment on the kindness and generosity of the present. "What a generous present!" or "how kind of you!" If you struggle to bring a smile to your face to show gratitude for something you'll never use, or something you never wanted, try to appreciate the thought behind it. It's always possible to offer a few words of thanks concerning the thought they put into it.  "Thanks so much! What a thoughtful present!" "I really appreciate that you thought of me!" Think about why they gave you the gift, and thank them for that reason. Even if the gift giver made a bad choice, they probably had at least one good reason for it.  "You must have remembered that I love chocolate!" "Thank you for these colorful socks; you know I like to keep my feet warm." "Thanks for the CD! I'm always looking to expand my collection." Ask your giver about the gift and how they thought of it. This is good distraction from discussing whether or not you'll use it, how often, etc. Ask them where they bought it, ask them if they've got one themselves, or ask how best to use it (if applicable). In general, when reacting to a gift you don't like, put the burden of the conversation on the person who is gifting, and not yourself.  "Do you have this CD too? What's your favorite track?" "I don't think I've ever seen socks like these; where did you get them? Do you have a pair yourself?" "I definitely don't have a sweater like this--how long did it take you to knit? How long have you been knitting?" If you don't have a moral issue with telling small lies to spare the feelings of well-intentioned people, go ahead and say you like it. Most people consider it polite to tell small lies about gifts rather than telling the giver you are disappointed.  However, you should avoid telling a big lie. Say you love the present, but don't say it's the best present ever, or...

Any racquet can be strung in one of two ways, by using one piece of string for both the horizontal and vertical stringing, or by using a separate piece for each.  Some tennis players think using a single piece of string increases the life of the set and the racquet, while the proper technique on some racquets makes the use of two pieces more desirable. It's important to string the cross strings from the end of the racquet (called the head) to the bottom of the face of the racquet, close to the handle (called the throat). This is because the tension of the strings can warp the racquet significantly, and since the throat is weaker than the head, it's better to start at the top and work down. This can be difficult with one piece of string, and impossible on some racquets. The main strings run parallel to the long axis of the racquet. Insert the string into the holes at the head of the racquet, thread it down through the neck and back up to the head.  Secure the end of the string into the grip and move the rod into the horizontal position. This might require you to readjust the length of string you initially threaded through the racquet. Tighten the string by twisting the rod to the proper specifications for your racquet. Fix the second string using the second clamp and release the first string. Continue threading and clamping until all holes have been strung, tightening one, securing the next, and then releasing the previous string. After you've secured all the main strings, release the tension rod and tie the end of the string securely, using needle-nose pliers and a small awl, if necessary. Tie a firm knot from the short end onto one of the taught vertical strings. Cut off excess string. When you get to the last main row of the vertically-oriented main strings, you'll tie the string off and start on the crossing pattern. Cross strings run perpendicular to the long axis of the racquet. Insert string into one hole, usually designated by a slightly-larger grommet, and weave the string over and under the main...

Any sized jar or bottle will be sufficient for your terrarium. A container with a large mouth will make it easier to work inside of. You want to make sure that the container can be properly sealed.  Options include: a candy jar with a heavy lid, a pasta jar, or a mason jar. Make sure the container is properly washed to remove any residue before using as a terrarium. The layer of pebbles at the bottom of the jar is to allow water to collect at the bottom and protect the plants from flooding. Add pebbles to a depth of about 1⁄2–2 inches (1.3–5.1 cm). It doesn’t matter what type of rock or pebbles you use. You can even use colorful pebbles from the pet store to make it more exciting. The charcoal layer is important to filter out impurities in the water. It helps keep the ecosystem clean and healthy by reducing the burden of bacteria and fungi. You don’t need a thick layer, just enough to cover the rock layer. Activated charcoal can be purchased at a local pet store. On top of the charcoal layer, you will add another layer of peat moss. Peat moss is a nutrient-rich soil that will help hold the water and nutrients necessary for the plants to grow. Peat moss can be obtained a local nursery. The final layer before adding the plants is a layer of potting soil. The plants will be able to root in this soil and get the water and nutrients they need from the combination of all of the layers below the potting soil.  Add enough soil for the plants to take root and have room for growth. A depth slightly higher than the pot the plant came in should be good. Most types of potting soil will be sufficient for this. Succulents and cacti require a special type of soil. Any plant you’d like to add will work in your terrarium, but small plants are recommended. Prepare your plants by removing them from their pots and breaking up the hard soil around their roots. Trim particularly long roots before planting.

Any soap will do, but the harder the soap, the more difficult it will be to cut. On the other hand, if it is soft instead of firm, it will be more likely to crumble. Rectangular soap is easier to cut for beginners than round soap. The color you use is up to you and your project idea. Inexpensive ivory soap is good for practice. A carving or paring knife is perfect for whittling down the soap into a basic shape. Soap is often soft enough that kids can use butter knives, plastic knives, spoons, or popsicle sticks. For detail work, you may wish to get a finer knife such as a detailing knife or substitute in an orangewood stick or toothpick.

Any sort of random method for determining which team goes first is fair game — you can also try rolling for the highest dice roll, guessing a number that a non-biased referee is thinking of, etc. In Kabaddi, teams take turns sending players (called "raiders") across the mid line to the other team's side of the court. The raider tries to tag members of the other team and run back to his side within 30 seconds — each player he touches equals one point for his team if he makes it back safely.   However, the raider must start repeatedly yelling "Kabaddi" before he crosses the mid line and cannot stop repeating this word until he crosses back over to his team's side. If he stops yelling or takes a breath on the opponent's side of the court, even momentarily, he must return to his own side of the court, scoring no points. In this case, one point is awarded to the defending team for a successful play.  Each member of a team must raid in sequence — if a team member raids out of order, the opposing team gets one point. If your team is being raided, you and the other three players in play are "anti-raiders" or "stoppers." Your goal is to keep the raider from tagging you and crossing back over the midline. You can do this either by running away from him until he runs out of breath or physically restraining him by tackling or grabbing him. Note that a raider may not be grabbed or held by his clothes, hair, or any part of his body other than his limbs and torso. The two teams alternate between raiding and defending for two halves of twenty minutes each (with a five minute break between halves.) After halftime, the two teams switch sides of the court. The team with the most points at the end of the game wins! In Kabaddi, players can be temporarily sent "out" of play for a variety of reasons. If this happens, they may not be replaced by players in reserve — substitutions are only made for players who are not out. Below are a list of circumstances in which a player may be sent out.  If the raider tags any defending players...

Any spot with bright lighting that doesn't get a lot of direct sunlight will work. Keep your money tree away from windows if direct sunlight shines through them every day. Direct sunlight can scorch the leaves on your money tree and kill it.  A stand in your living room or the top of your dresser in your bedroom would be good spots for your money tree, as long as they don't receive a lot of direct sunlight. Try to turn your tree every time you water it. This helps ensure even growth and leaf development. Extreme temperatures can shock your money tree and cause it to die. Find a spot for your money tree that's away from heat and air conditioning vents. Don't put your money tree near a window or door if a cold draft comes through it a lot. Ideally, your money tree should be in a space that averages between 60–75 °F (16–24 °C). Money trees need a lot of humidity to survive. If you live in a dry climate and you're worried about the humidity levels being too low, set up a humidifier near your money tree. Get an indoor humidity monitor so you can keep track of how humid it is in the room your money tree is in. Dry, falling leaves are a sign that your money tree isn't getting enough humidity. If you already have a humidifier set up, start leaving it on for longer amounts of time, or get a second humidifier. Make sure your money tree isn't near any heat vents that could be drying out the air. Watering your money tree more won't help with the dryness, and it could make the problem worse by causing root rot or the leaves on the tree to turn yellow.

Any statistical work is generally made easier by having your data in a concise format. A simple table serves this purpose very well. To calculate the standard error of estimate, you will be using five different measurements or calculations. Therefore, creating a five-column table is helpful. Label the five columns as follows:  x{\displaystyle x} y{\displaystyle y} y′{\displaystyle y^{\prime }} y−y′{\displaystyle y-y^{\prime }} (y−y′)2{\displaystyle (y-y^{\prime })^{2}} Note that the table shown in the image above performs the opposite subtractions, y′−y{\displaystyle y^{\prime }-y}. The more standard order, however, is y−y′{\displaystyle y-y^{\prime }}. Because the values in the final column are squared, the negative is not problematic and will not change the outcome. Nevertheless, you should recognize that the more standard calculation is y−y′{\displaystyle y-y^{\prime }}. After collecting your data, you will have pairs of data values. For these statistical calculations, the independent variable is labeled x{\displaystyle x} and the dependent, or resulting, variable is y{\displaystyle y}. Enter these values into the first two columns of your data table.  The order of the data and the pairing is important for these calculations. You need to be careful to keep your paired data points together in order. For the sample calculations shown above, the data pairs are as follows:  (1,2) (2,4) (3,5) (4,4) (5,5) Using your data results, you will be able to calculate a regression line. This is also called a line of best fit or the least squares line. The calculation is tedious but can be done by hand. Alternatively, you can use a handheld graphing calculator or some online programs that will quickly calculate a best fit line using your data.  For this article, it is assumed that you will have the regression line equation available or that it has been predicted by some prior means. For the sample data set in the image above, the regression line is y′=0.6x+2.2{\displaystyle y^{\prime }=0.6x+2.2}. Using the equation of...

Any suspected head injury or concussion needs to be evaluated by a medical professional. What may seem like a minor head injury could be a fatal one. If the patient is experiencing some minor symptoms but does't seem to be in a great deal of danger, drive them to the nearest doctor's office. If the patient is unconscious or if you are unsure the extent of the damage, call an ambulance. Driving a head trauma patient requires moving them, which should never be done until the head is stabilized. Moving a head trauma patient could lead to death. If the patient is having severe signs of a concussion after experiencing a blow the head, go the the ER immediately. They will do a CT scan and assess the brain for contusions and swelling. If the victim shows any of these symptoms, take them immediately to the ER:  Loss of consciousness, even if briefly. Periods of amnesia. Feeling dazed or confused. Severe headache. Repeated vomiting. Seizure. If you think a neck or spine injury may accompany the concussion, avoid moving the victim while waiting on the paramedics. Moving the person may cause further injury. If you must move the person, do so very carefully. Make sure to move the head and the back as little as possible. If your symptoms do not improve within 7-10 days, contact your physician. If at any time your symptoms change or worsen, contact your physician. There is very little known about the effects of concussion on the brain and on cognitive function. However, some treatments prescribed by your doctor may improve lingering symptoms. A doctor may perform any number of scans, including an MRI, CT, or EEG. A doctor may also perform a neurological test that evaluates your vision, hearing, reflexes, and coordination. Another test they may perform is a cognitive test, which checks memory, concentration, and recall.

Any teen is likely to have some education about what happens during puberty, but they may also not realize the impact of body odor. Furthermore, many teens may know what to expect, but they simply may not realize that it already applies to them. Remember, it isn’t like a teen just wakes up one day knowing they have gone through puberty. Instead, it is a gradual process, and they simply may not realize they are smelly.  Ideally, you should start talking to your child about puberty before they reach it, and before they are a teenager. For example, you should explain that when people go through puberty, their body does things differently than it did before. They will sweat, but now this sweat will be smelly. Not only that, but they will grow hair in new places, and this hair can make that smell worse. If the teen is the type that doesn't believe a word you say, see if you can enlist the help of someone your teen really looks up to. For example, if you are the mom of a teen boy, he may be more likely to listen to a man that he looks up to, such as his father, uncle, grandfather, or even a close family friend. If the person that is going to talk to him isn’t sure what to say, give them a few pointers. Point out that they should be delicate, and try their best not to make your teen feel embarrassed. When talking with  teens about hygiene and showering, it is really important to do your best to avoid making them feel embarrassed. With topics such as hygiene, this can be very easy to do. If they feel embarrassed, they will likely become defensive almost immediately, and they aren’t going to want to listen to anything you are saying, no matter how logical it is. Be empathetic and remember that the teenage years can be really tough and confusing. You can say, for example, “I know that it can be really tough at your age, and this may be at the bottom of your list of priorities, but remember that taking care of your hygiene is important. It may seem like a hassle, but being clean and well-groomed will help make you feel...

Any time you experience rectal bleeding, it is important to visit your doctor and have any serious causes ruled out or identified. Seek urgent medical care if:  Rectal bleeding is accompanied by a fever or nausea. Your skin turns pale and sweaty while you are experiencing rectal bleeding. You experience severe abdominal cramps. As an initial test, your doctor may perform a digital and visual anal and rectal examination. The doctor will use a gloved finger to inspect your anus and lower rectum for trauma, hemorrhoids, or the presence of a foreign body. The doctor may also feel and apply pressure to your abdomen externally. They’ll feel for any odd lumps or potential tumors inside your body. If the visual examination proves inconclusive, the doctor may request a sample of blood, stool, or both. A blood test will allow the doctor to determine how much blood you have lost and if your blood is able to clot adequately. The doctor or a nurse can draw the blood sample while you’re in the office. Both the blood sample and stool sample will need to be sent to an off-site lab for examination. The results may take up to a week to be returned. In some cases, your doctor may decide that a colonoscopy is needed to determine the cause or location of your rectal bleeding. When performing a colonoscopy, the doctor will insert a flexible plastic tube with a camera attached into your rectum. This allows the doctor to have a clearer image of your rectum and will allow them to determine the cause of your rectal bleeding.  Instead of a colonoscopy, the doctor may prefer a different type of internal examination, including an endoscopy or flexible sigmoidoscopy. If your doctor is able to see an obvious external source for the bleeding, such as hemorrhoids, you may not need to receive a colonoscopy. They may still recommend an internal examination to rule out cancer or other serious underlying causes, however. If you’re 40 or older, your doctor will recommend a colonoscopy to rule out the possibility of colon cancer causing your...

Any time you get into future-telling, a lot lingo starts getting tossed around. It can get confusing. Keeping terms straight can untangle a lot of mystical mumbo-jumbo and make the techniques and the simple tricks a little more fun for the beginner.   Precognition means awareness of the future, through direct knowledge or some other kind of perception, like dreams. Most precognitive experiences occur in dreams, and most occur 24-48 hours before the occurrence.  Premonition involves the feeling that something might happen, but not the knowledge of what it is exactly. Premonitions might include feelings of foreboding or "hunches" that something "feels right." These can be just as significant as precognition, and much more reliable.  Prophecy refers back to the ancient Greek sense of time, with the future being fixed and immutable. A prophecy is a knowledge of a future that will definitely happen, without question. For something to be prophecies means that it cannot be changed. Scans show that humans only use a tiny fraction of the brain's capacity. But are those dormant abilities really useless and dormant? Not necessarily. Flexing your unconscious muscles is possible through practicing deep meditation, letting your unconscious mind overwhelm your conscious mind, and take over. This is where future telling happens.  Start by making yourself comfortable, in a room with soft natural light. Sitting in a comfortable upright position, preferably on the floor, calm your mind and focus on your breathing. Feel the breath go into your body. Feel the breath go out of your body. Feel the oxygen nourishing your body, and going back out into the world. Just focus on your breath, nothing else. Gradually, start focusing on relaxing your body as you breathe. With every breath, focus on relaxing one arm, first. Feel the breath going into your arm and relax your arm. Then move to your other arm, then down your chest, and throughout the rest of your body. Calm your head and your mind, as well. Focus on relaxation. . There's no...

Any time you start a new medication, it’s important to discuss your medical history with your doctor beforehand. Drugs can have interactions that create negative side effects.  Taking Prolia can be potentially harmful for people with kidney disease, weak immune systems, thyroid/parathyroid problems, stomach or intestinal problems, dental surgery or tooth removal surgery, or allergies to denosumab (an ingredient in the medication) or latex. Let your doctor and dentist know if you have jaw problems while on Prolia. You may need a dental exam before you can begin Prolia as well. It’s important that you don’t attempt to inject yourself (or someone else) with a shot of Prolia unless you’ve been trained by a professional. Ask your doctor to show you how to use it before you attempt to administer the injection at home. If you feel uncomfortable administering the injection yourself, simply go to your healthcare provider each time you need a dose. They will be happy to do it for you. A room-temperature injection will be more comfortable than a cold one. Take the medication out of the fridge and let it sit at room temperature for 30 minutes or so before you administer the shot.  Don’t try to warm the syringe by using a heat source (like a microwave or hot water). Let it warm up naturally. Heating up the syringe can compromise the medication or even cause the syringe to crack. Be sure that you don’t expose the syringe to direct sunlight while you wait for it to warm up as sunlight can contaminate the medication inside the syringe. Look at the syringe to make sure it is not damaged or contaminated. Don’t use the syringe if the medicine inside is cloudy or has particles in it, if any part of the syringe appears cracked or broken, or if the needle cap is missing or not fully attached. Instead, grab a new syringe from your packet, or contact your healthcare provider if you are out of syringes. You should also discard the syringe if the medicine is past its expiration date, which will be printed on the syringe label. You may...

Any time you'd normally use milk or yogurt for a meal or in your cooking, substitute kefir. Kefir makes an excellent base for sauces, and it can even be used in baking as a healthier dairy substitute. Consider these options:  Eat kefir with granola for breakfast. Stir kefir into your coffee. Make a yogurt grapefruit cake with kefir instead of yogurt. Coconut kefir can't always be used as a direct substitute for milk in recipes, but it has a variety of other wonderful uses, and is especially delicious when enjoyed plain. Try these ideas:  Make a coconut kefir smoothie by blending a cup of kefir, a banana, and a handful of berries. Use coconut kefir as the base for a  homemade pina colada. Stir coconut kefir into soups and sauces to make them thick, rich and creamy. Water kefir is much lighter than other types of kefir, so you might find yourself drinking it all day long. Use it whenever you'd normally use water in recipes for soup. You can also flavor water kefir with fruit juice, mint, or other flavorings to make a tasty drink.

Any time you're planting a new garden bed or even potting a houseplant, it's a good idea to fertilize it to give it a head start. Work compost into the soil, sprinkle bone meal into the holes you dig, or scatter granular fertilizer over newly tilled ground. Remember that nitrogen helps stems and leaves grow strong, phosphorus fosters a healthy root system, and potassium gives plants a healthy shape with beautiful blossoms. Each type of plant has different needs, so conduct research or ask an expert at your local nursery if you're not sure exactly what to feed your plants. Try not to wait until a problem crops up before feeding your plants. Keep track of when they were last fertilized and plan on feeding them again every few months during the growing season. If your plants have yellow or brown spots, limp leaves, or other problems, they are likely to be undernourished. You can buy fertilizer sprays that are intended to help immediately revive plants that are in distress.

It may be a good idea to wear minimal makeup around your eyes until you're used to applying your lashes. It can take awhile to get used to using magnetic lashes. Practice before you wear the lashes out, as they may look awkward the first few times you put them on.

Any type of bread will work for your sandwich, so pick the one that you like the most. If you want something healthier, look for whole grain or multigrain to get helpful nutrients and fibers. You can either used pre-sliced bread or buy an entire loaf to cut your own. Use 2 slices of the bread you choose and lay them flat on your plate so you can easily build your sandwich on top of them.  Look for different types of bread, like sourdough, pumpernickel, or rye, to see how they affect the overall flavor of your sandwich. If you want to make a large sub sandwich, cut a baguette horizontally down the middle to use as the top and bottom pieces. Try using buns or rolls instead of sliced bread if you want to make smaller sandwiches. Look for pitas or tortillas if you’d rather have a wrap. Shake a small amount of salt and pepper onto the sandwich to make it taste better. Try different spices or herbs you may have, like basil, oregano, or cayenne pepper, if you want to give your sandwich an additional kick. Only use a tiny pinch of each spice so the flavors aren’t too overwhelming. Once your sandwich is completely assembled, press down on the top piece of bread to compress the sandwich so it’s easier to cut. Use a serrated knife to cut through the sandwich so it doesn’t fall apart. You can either cut the sandwich diagonally or into rectangles depending on what you prefer. After you cut the sandwich, eat it and enjoy your meal!  You don’t need to cut the sandwich if you don’t want to. If you want to save some of your sandwich for later, wrap it in foil or a plastic bag and keep it in the fridge to preserve it.

Any type of chewing gum or bubblegum should work. Chew a wad of gum until all of it is soft and flexible. Sugared gum and sugarless gum have different consistencies, so you might want to try both kinds to see which is easier to snap. Press it against the roof of your mouth with your tongue until it forms a flat, unbroken disc or rectangle. There are a couple different ways you can flatten the gum. Any method you use for blowing a bubble should work, but stop before the gum is fully stretched out. Use your tongue to push the gum up behind your upper lip, in front of your upper front teeth. Wedge one end of the gum firmly in that area. Push the other end of the gum behind your lower teeth, on the inside of your mouth. The gum should still be all in one piece, without any tears. Some people put the lower end in front of the bottom teeth instead, or in the center of the mouth. Part your lips slightly, so there's a gap between them. Suck a short burst of air in quickly, and some of the gum should snap back into your mouth, making noise. You might need to practice for a while before you can get this. Even once you learn it, it might not happen every time.

Any type of foam shaving cream will work for this purpose. Be sure to use cream, rather than gel. Spritz the cream directly onto the stain. Give the shaving cream some time to work its magic. Just a few minutes should suffice. After you’ve let the shaving cream sit on the stain for a couple of minutes, work it into the stain. Use your fingers or a soft, clean cloth. Rub firmly to make sure you really work the shaving cream into the stained fibers. If shaving cream and water alone don’t do the trick, try mixing a little rubbing alcohol in with the shaving cream. Rub in the shaving cream and alcohol mixture, and rinse with water. If you’re concerned that alcohol might damage your clothing, test a little out in an inconspicuous spot first. Carefully wash out all the shaving cream. Use cold water on your first rinse, since hot water may cause the stain to set into the fabric. Check to see if there’s any foundation left. If there’s any foundation left after your initial attack, spray on a little more shaving cream and try again. This time, rinse it out with warm or hot water. The warmer water may help the shaving cream break down any stubborn makeup that has already set into the fabric. After rinsing out the stain, gently pat the area dry. Use a blotting motion to lift out the water and any lingering traces of the stain. After you’ve spot-treated the stain, get out any residual traces of makeup (and shaving cream) by tossing the stained item in the wash. If the garment is not machine-washable, hand wash it or get it dry-cleaned.

Any type of household vinegar or even table salt in water can be used to antique brass. This can take longer to take effect than the other methods — several hours for vinegar, and up to several days with salt water— but you do not have to handle any dangerous chemicals and probably already have the necessary ingredients in your kitchen.  Prepare the brass first as described above to ensure the antiquing succeeds. Wear rubber gloves for any method to prevent getting oil on the brass. A mix of equal parts table salt and water will oxidize the brass, simply speeding up the natural aging process brass undergoes. Apply it with a small paintbrush over the entire surface and reapply daily until you've achieved the appearance you enjoy. Apply with a brush or simply dip the piece in any type of vinegar. Allow it to dry, then apply an additional coat if you'd like a darker color.  Mix a spoonful of table salt into the vinegar for a greener patina.  Heating the brass with a hair dryer or oven to around 450ºF (230ºC) will produce more noticeable results, but you'll need oven mitts or thick gardener gloves to handle it at this temperature. This may not achieve the authentic appearance that ammonia or antiquing solution will, but some people prefer the "gingerbread" appearance that results. In any case, it is certainly safer and less expensive than those methods.  Pour some vinegar into a plastic bucket with an airtight lid. Place wooden blocks or other objects into the bucket so a stable, flat surface is dry above the level of the vinegar. Place the brass on top of the objects. Seal the lid to trap the vinegar fumes and let them alter the brass for several hours or overnight. Once the result you want is achieved, which may take several applications, wash the brass in warm water. Dry it gently with a towel or by applying heat. Once it is dry, you have the option to preserve its color by coating with a brass lacquer or wax.
