You have to clearly have a goal in mind so that you can focus on it. Concentrating on your goal in a sort of meditative practice helps you control your dream. You can be anything, but many people enjoy becoming something that will allow you to experience the universe differently, like an alien, bird, or fish. You can also use shape-shifting to confront your fears: for instance, if you have a phobia of spiders, you can shape-shift into one and experience life from its point of view. A clear pond, window, or anything else that gives you a good reflection will also work.  Stare at yourself and will your skin to change and form into the shape you desire. You can also start at one end of your body (for instance, your feet) and consciously think of each part changing. Some lucid dreamers like to walk through the mirror at this point, fully embracing the alternate persona. This is another method if you don't prefer to use a mirror or if you find it hard to visualize a mirror.  Simply behave as if you were the thing you want to become. . For example, if you want to shape-shift into a dog, go down onto your hands and knees. Start barking, and wag your tail. Pretty soon you'll feel your hands turn into paws and your face change.

Find a good place in your home for the hammock swing. Once you've found an appropriate spot, drill a hole in the ceiling and insert a hook.  Ensure that the ceiling is strong enough and make sure the hook is securely in place. Check the hole and the hook from time to time because as it can start to come loose after a lot of swinging. Make sure that there is space to swing. The swing must be at least 14 inches (35.6 cm) away from any barriers or hard surfaces, such as walls or edges of furniture. Hang the spring on the hook. The spring will allow the swing to gently bounce while swinging. Measure the length of the chain that you need, depending on how low you want to set the hammock swing. You shouldn't make the swing too high, in fact it should be relatively close to the floor.  Measure from the top and do not forget to include the dimension of the swing in the measurement. Measure the height of your hammock swing from the steel ring to the bottom of the swing. Consider putting a mattress beneath the swing, that way if your baby falls they will not be hurt. Place the chain on the spring. At the other end put the carabiner or a quick link. Cut a "U" shape into each end of the wooden board. Each "U" should be ¾ inches wide and 1 ½ inches into the board.  Pull the free ends of the swing fabric through these holes. Make sure the bottom of the swing is in the middle. Secure the ends of the fabric by tying them up with additional ties. The steel ring should be in the middle of the fabric. Make sure the bottom of the swing is centered and that it stays flat. Secure the steel ring with another tie to make it more stable. Attach the steel ring onto a carabiner. Place your baby's head where the elastic is, and your baby's legs where the tied strips are. Tie the straps that are stitched to the bottom of the swing together to close the swing and ensure that the baby does not fall out.  Always put your baby lying on her back and check her from time to time. Do not leave the baby out of your sight. Make sure that the swing...

Some writers may prefer to plan out the plot before deciding on a setting. However, in comedic writing, humor is often based on situations. Before you start writing out the storyline for your work, it may be helpful to consider where your story might take place and how you can derive humor from that setting.  Try to be original in choosing your setting. Readers may be turned off if it's a setting they're too familiar with, as it may feel like the story has been recycled. Also, keep in mind that a vivid description of your setting will help reader to feel like they are there and this may help to make the story even funnier. For short stories, it's best to stick with as few setting changes as possible. Aim to work within just one setting, but don't exceed two. A plot is the most important component of any story. Plot is simply what happens in the story, who is involved, and how that series of events unfolds.  Most compelling stories have a beginning, middle, and end. Across that timeline there is a source of rising tension, a climax (breaking point of the tension), and an unraveling of tension that leads into the ending. Think about what the source of tension/drama will be, and try to work that tension into the specific setting you've chosen for the story. Consider how the source of tension can work with that setting. Perhaps the setting might heighten the tension, for example, or create a comedic situation by way of contrast with the location where the events unfold. Every story needs interesting, realistic characters. A funny story needs interesting, realistic characters who either have funny qualities or who find themselves in funny situations.  How you depict the characters may depend on their personalities and circumstances within the story. For example, you might depict a bumbling "idiot" character who stumbles into funny situations, or a sarcastic character who thinks he knows it all and realizes that he doesn't know anything about his own circumstances. Make sure your characters are realistic and...

Running on a track is the most popular place for sprint training because the distances are demarcated by lines on the ground, making it easy to keep track of exactly how far you’re running. The surface is also good for shock absorption, which is helpful for keeping your joints healthy and free of injury.  If you don’t live near a school, gym, or other place with a track, you can still run sprints on any number of flat areas. Consider running on soccer field, football field, or other long stretch of grass or turf that is relatively flat. Depending on length and patterns of usage, you might also be able to find a parking lot or other paved area nearby that is relatively flat and would work well for sprinting. Look for an area at least 40 meters long. While pavement is not ideal for running, lots of people run marathons on the road, so a handful of sprints is surely a better option! This will get your body warmed up and ready for more intense work. If you’re working out somewhere other than a track, try jogging for 2–4 minutes as a warm-up. Doing a limited number of dynamic stretches before sprinting has been shown to improve sprint times and help the body avoid injury. Dynamic stretches are stretches performed while walking.  Too much of this type of intense stretching will cause fatigue and decrease your sprinting performance, so aim to spend about 10 minutes if you’re in average shape, and up to 20 minutes if you’re super fit. Dynamic stretching requires more effort and is therefore more tiresome than the gentle stretches most people are familiar with. You don’t want to put in twenty minutes and expend all your energy—then you won’t have any left for sprinting! Try these different stretches: Gluteals – Walking High Knees; Hamstrings – “Toy Soldiers” or “Frankensteins”; Adductors – Hurdler’s Walk; Quadriceps – “Butt-Kickers”; and Gastrocnemius – Tip-Toe Walking. Thirty seconds is a good starting time, so long as you have a stopwatch or other device that can alert you when the time is up. Once you improve your...

Many people choose to pierce their ears at home to save time and money. While this is an option, it is far more sanitary to use a professional. Piercing your ears at home results in a higher chance of infection. Professional establishments have far more experience with both the practice of piercing and sanitation procedures. As your forward helix is a more painful piercing, you will want someone else to do it. If you do decide to go with a professional, make sure that they use proper sanitation procedures. Most establishments will have photo books of piercings they’ve done. Check them out to make sure this is the piercing for you. Now is not the time to go for the cheapest option or to rush. Pick a place you feel comfortable with. The last thing you want to do is pierce your ear, but forget to have earrings ready. If you don’t have an earring ready to put in your freshly pierced ears, the hole will close on itself. You’ll have to wait for it to heal and then pierce it again. The best thing for a pierced forward helix is a barbell stud. 18 gauge and about 10mm long (3/8") is a good size. This size leaves room for the swelling that will occur after piercing. If you decide to do it yourself, be sure to get a proper piercing needle. Piercing needles have a hollow center so you can easily slip your earring through your ear once you make a hole with the needle. You can buy piercing needles online or from local stores that perform piercings.  Do not share needles with other people as this could lead to infection. Make sure to use a needle that is at least one gauge bigger than the earring that you plan to wear. Many places use 16 gauge needles for forward helix piercings. There are piercing packages for sale, which normally comes with two piercing earrings that have been loaded into a spring puncher. You can purchase these online or at beauty supply stores. Follow the directions as closely as you can. Avoid piercing earrings. Some locations sell earrings with sharp needles affixed to them. These are used for...

Is your sketch for a movie script, a play, a speech in need of comedy, or maybe even a Youtube video? Depending on your mode of delivery, you can use other tools for comedic effect like props, costumes, lighting, or digital effects. Certain kinds of comedy work for certain kinds of audiences. Avoid topics that are overly offensive or will bore your audience.  Think about your audience's average age. If you are performing for children, use content geared towards younger people like teddy bears, ponies, or popular cartoons. If you are performing for adults, focus on topics for adults like sex, violence, international intrigue, politics, parenthood, or work. Think about the kinds of people in the audience. If you are into lowbrow comedy and your audience seems to be more highbrow, then you might want to consider their expectations. Remember what is funny to you, might be improper, insensitive, or outright offensive to others. Jokes about wealthy businessmen might work well in front of lower and middle class audiences, but will not be received in the same way by upper class people. There are some exceptions, when it is ok to be offensive. Roasts are events where people come together to make fun of someone. Keep in mind that even these events need to mix insulting jokes with levity. Look online for well-known comedy sketches, sketch groups, and sketch programs like Monty Python and Saturday Night Live.  Research is absolutely necessary for two reasons. First, it will show you what many people consider funny. Second, it will show you what has been done before. For the most part, you should try to be original, because humor depends on your audience not expecting your joke.  Know the genre(s) of comedy you fit into, as well as your prospective audience's expectations for that genre. You don't want to misrepresent yourself or your comedy. Now that you know how you will present the material and your audience, what kinds of topics do you think they'll enjoy? You can't write a comedy sketch without doing the leg work...

There are dozens of options, and they all have different benefits.  Choose one that’s conveniently located and fits your budget. You can get a good photo without shelling out a lot of cash, but of course a professional photographer will offer the highest quality photo. Some places require appointments, so plan ahead. Some options include  shipping centers (in the U.S., this includes Fedex and UPS) places with memberships (such as Costco and AAA) Costco offers some of the cheapest passport photos. AAA will sometimes do it for free if you’ve booked a trip through their travel services.  pharmacies and retail stores (CVS, Rite Aid, Walgreens, and Walmart all offer this service) professional photography studios passport offices (many offer this service, but not all, so call ahead) registered passport expediters (if you need it in under two weeks) in your own home (but be sure to follow the strict requirements) Give your hair a little time to get over that fresh cut look by planning a haircut in advance if you need one.  About a week or two should still leave your hair looking neat and tidy by picture time. Of course, if you want the fresh cut look and trust your stylist not to botch it, you can wait until the last minute. If you like to shape your eyebrows, it’s best to do it about a day in advance to get rid of any redness before the photo but not give strays enough time to return. You could also get them waxed if you want to shell out a few bucks for this special occasion.  If you find that the skin around your eyebrows gets red after you pluck them, try applying cool, wet tea bags or a bit of aloe. To prevent dark shadows under your eyes and redness in your eyes, try to get enough sleep for several days before you take your passport photo. This will also help brighten your skin and make you look healthier.

Dog groomers work in locations as small as a van and as large as a pet mega-store.  They can be their own bosses and only employees or be one small cog in a large corporation.  Working in a pet superstore will reduce your business costs but likely offer less flexibility in setting your schedule and choosing your clients. Working in a smaller pet grooming business, as proprietor, partner, or employee, may offer more flexibility but also the challenges of operating a business location. Operating out of your home can reduce overhead costs, but might also limit your clientele.  You’ll need to consider local local business regulations and permitting as well. A mobile dog grooming service, run out of a van or trailer, offers mobility, flexibility, and lower operation costs, but has its own disadvantages (and possibly local business regulations) to deal with as well. Income potential varies widely by hours worked, business type, and client base, but a general range is roughly $15,000 to $50,000 per year. Especially if you are opening your own dog grooming business, but even if you are working in a large pet center, building a loyal clientele will be essential to your success.  If interested in opening your own business, you may want to visit How to Start a Small Business and How to Open a Small Business for guidance and advice. Get your name out there to potential clients any way you can, perhaps by handing out business cards at the dog park, putting up flyers (with permission) at local pet stores and vet offices, or decorating your grooming van with an eye-catching design. You already know how much most owners love their dogs, so do right by the canine and you’ll have the best chance of securing the loyalty of its human companion.  A good dog groomer needs to be firm but gentle in dealing with frightened or uncooperative animals; calming in demeanor to keep nervous dogs happy and compliant; patient and detail-oriented to do the job right every time; and have good communication skills with both canines and people. ...

Survey your yard and decide where your driveway should be. Also, decide if you want a parking area or a circular driveway.  Remember that a larger driveway will be more expensive than a smaller one. Watch for any drainage issues in the area where the driveway will be. It is important to position your driveway so that the water will run off the sides and not pool in the middle of it. You may delineate your driveway area with landscaping timber or bricks. This is optional. You will need to mark off the area of your new driveway before starting the driveway project.  Place sticks or landscape stakes in the ground every 8 to 10 feet along the length of one side of the area that will be your driveway. Place  a second set of stakes at least 10 to 12 feet across from the first set of stakes to mark the width of the driveway.  You may want to make the width 14 feet if your driveway curves. You will need to know the length and width of your entire driveway.  If your driveway curves, you might want to measure in sections and add them together instead of trying to measure all at once. For a really stable driveway, experts recommend laying three separate layers of different sizes of stone.  This will take extra money and planning, so you need to decide early if this is the type of driveway you want. Laying a gravel driveway yourself, even if it is fairly short in length, will require time and physically intense labor.  If you are physically unable to do heavy lifting and repetitive work (such as raking the gravel), you may need to hire someone to help you.

How deep into the woods do you want to live? Think both geographically and philosophically. If you don't mind a short drive outside of the urban sprawl, you can live surrounded by woods and still have some of the conveniences of the city. You can usually have electricity run to your home and get hooked up to a rural water main. A brief commute and you can be at work, making the kind of money that would be hard for some to walk away from. Or were you thinking of something a little more intense?  This lifestyle still ties one down to the system; however, it offers most people enough of a reprieve to be happy. Others can't find happiness just on the other side of the suburbs. They desire to be further removed from the rat race, and live deeper in the woods. As far as North America goes, great places to get your Thoreau on are British Columbia, the Pacific Northwest of the States, and vast expanses like Montana. Just make sure you're near water! Where you choose all depends on what you have in mind and what kind of weather you're willing to, well, weather. So many of us take for granted modern conveniences. We turn on our faucet and out comes water. Want light? Flip a switch. Want heat? Just turn up the thermostat. We forget how easy we have it. Although paying for them monthly can be challenging, having a well drilled and installing solar panels and wind turbines require a substantial initial investment that most people simply can't afford.  Heating with wood is an option, but cutting wood is back breaking, time consuming work, that would probably have most wishing for the days they paid for their heat. So plan out your utilities! It will help you decide where and how you want to live. Do you want to live in a cabin in the mountains or do you want to pitch your own tent and live by the light of an oil lamp? Is the location you have in mind good year around or is it plain freezing in the winter? What about rainfall and other possibly dangerous hazards? Just how much work do you want to be doing? Most areas that...

Avoid letting your dog get familiar with toileting indoors if you'd like it to toilet outside. If you have a place in your yard where you'd like your dog to toilet, bring it to the spot immediately. Before you even go into your house, let it sniff around the yard until your dog urinates or defecates. When your dog does urinate or defecate, give your dog lots of verbal praise and attention so your dog associates going to the bathroom outside with being praised. In order to make your French bulldog a good household member, begin potty training your dog as soon as you get it. If you wait to begin training and let your dog toilet on puppy pads, it will take longer to potty train it and you dog will be confused about where to toilet. You'll need to be very consistent and encouraging when you begin housebreaking your French bulldog. Most dogs will show signs that they need to toilet, so watch your French bulldog to become familiar with your dog's specific signs. You should also be in the habit of frequently giving it  the opportunity to toilet. Signs that your dog needs to toilet include:  Panting Pacing or sniffing around the house Barking Wandering off to a quiet area If you didn't notice your dog's cue to toilet or your dog accidentally goes in the house, thoroughly clean up the mess. You'll need to use a product designed for pet messes or a special pet-urine enzymatic cleaner. This will completely remove the scent of urine so your dog doesn't return to the same spot to toilet later. Don't scold or hit your dog for having an accident. Your dog won't be able to associate the punishment with the action (toileting inside) and your dog will learn not to trust you.

Take some time alone to think through this decision. Ideally, you should answer "yes" to all these questions before you have sex:  Do you and your partner understand how pregnancy and STDs work? Can you talk openly about the risk, and agree on a method or methods of protection? Do you and your partner trust and respect each other? Would your partner listen if you changed you mind and said "stop"? Are your personal values compatible with the sexual experience you're considering? Would your family and community be okay with this if they knew? If you answer "no," are you comfortable accepting that fact? Sex can be a great way for two people in a healthy relationship to have fun and express their connection. This isn't always the reason sex happens, however. Be honest about why you want to have sex, and understand which reasons are no good:  Only have sex when you and your partner genuinely want to. If one of you is pressuring the other, put this to a stop and wait until both of you are ready. Don't have sex because you think everyone else is doing it. Most high school students have not had sex, and the ones that do don't have sex very often. Don't have sex to save a failing romantic relationship. It won't work. Once you're confident you're ready for sex, talk to your partner. You need to talk about previous sexual experiences, possible STDs, what to do in the event of an unplanned pregnancy, and your views on abortion and adoption. Tell each other why you want to have sex. If you cannot talk to your partner about these topics, you may want to postpone sex until the two of you are able to have the conversation. Make sure you're on the same page about what sex means to your relationship. Is it just for fun? Do you love each other? Is this an exclusive relationship? If it's the first time for one or both of you, or even just your first time with each other, you're going to need privacy and time to yourselves. Arrange your agreed-upon method(s) of protection in advance, so you don't miss an opportunity. Finding...

A sticker will wear over time, peeling back and leaving sticky residue. But, if you want a low cost color change, this is the best way to do it. There are dozens, if not hundreds, of companies who provide sticker decals for your iPhone. Skins can range from $5 to $50, depending upon the look and the quality. Use a computer-safe spray and/or microfiber cloth. A clean surface will provide better adhesion.

Your first step and decision will be to determine when you are going to the actual event. You should reflect on whether you’ll go to the event as soon as you get the RSVP email.  Consider the location of the event and if you’ll have to travel. For example, if someone invites you to an out-of-town wedding, you may need to buy airplane tickets to get there. This could be costly. Plan to make sure you don’t have any other events that time and day. Talk to your partner and other members of your family to make sure they are available. You may wind up declining for some members of your family and accepting for others. Different types of occasions require different tones and levels of formality. Thus, you need to think about the occasion before replying to the invitation. This will help make sure that you’re not making a social misstep.  Is it an informal event. For example, is the occasion a BBQ that your neighbor is having for no reason and sent out an informal email about? This type of event may merit an informal tone in your reply and you may have less time to respond. Is it a formal event. Events like weddings, birthday parties, Bar or Bat Mitzvahs require you to respond in a formal tone just as you were invited. After you’ve made your decision and reflected on the event, you’ll need to respond in a timely manner. Ultimately, this is one of the most important aspects of replying to an RSVP email, as you need to give the person sufficient notice of whether you are attending the event or not.  Read the invitation for a “RSVP by” date. This date is not a suggestion. Make sure you RSVP by the date. Respond as quickly as you can. While the person who invited you may have given you a month or two to respond, this doesn’t mean you should take that entire window of time. Instead, you should respond as soon as you’ve made a concrete decision about whether you will attend.

A laptop for word processing and email-checking will have much different specifications than a laptop for playing the latest games. Battery life is also an important consideration; if you plan to roam around unplugged, you’ll want a laptop that doesn’t draw much power. The shell that you purchase will be dependent on the processor that you want to install, so pick your processor first. Compare processor models to determine which processor offers the best speed versus cooling and power consumption. Most major online retailers will let you compare processors side-by-side.  Make sure that you are purchasing a mobile processor, and not a desktop processor. There are two major processor manufacturers: Intel and AMD. There are plenty of arguments for and against each brand, but generally AMD will be less expensive. Do as much research as possible on the processor models you are interested in to be certain it is worth the money. The notebook shell will determine which parts you can use for the rest your laptop. The shell will come with the motherboard attached already, which will dictate what memory you can use.  Take screen size and keyboard layout into account as well. Since the shell is not particularly customizable, you will be stuck with the screen and keyboard you choose. A larger laptop will be more difficult to carry around, and will most likely be significantly heavier. Finding shells for sale can be difficult. Enter “barebones notebook” or “whitebook shell” into your favorite search engine to track down retailers that stock shells. Some laptop manufacturers or suppliers will allow you to choose just the shell. MSI and Eluktronics are some of the few companies that still offer barebone laptops. Your laptop will need memory to run, and the format of the memory is different than desktop. Look for SO-DIMM memory that will work with the motherboard in your shell. Faster memory will give better performance, but may lead to shorter battery life. Try to get 8 or 16 GB of memory for optimal everyday performance....

Finding the right habitat for your chick is relatively simple. You can use a variety of different types of housing, ranging from one you purchase to one you have around the house. If you have more than one chick, make sure the habitat can comfortably accommodate all of them. Consider some of the following options for your chick’s home:  A simple cardboard box An aquarium A cat carrier A guinea pig cage Because it is so young and small, your chick is especially vulnerable to falling from its habitat or becoming prey for other animals. Keep the habitat in a space where your chick can’t fall or escape and where pets can’t gain access to her.  Consider putting a ventilated lid on the habitat for times when you are not home or unable to watch your chick. This can keep other animals out while protecting your chick from falling out of the cage. Avoid putting the habitat in any spaces that are very high off the ground. This can protect your chicks from falling too far, which can be fatal Chicks and chickens are very sensitive to temperature. It’s important to line your chick’s habitat with materials to help keep it warm, which can prevent disease or death.  Line the housing with old towels or blankets for the chick’s first few weeks of life. Make sure the lining has no loose strings, which your chick can swallow or might strangle her. Switch to a lining of straw and newspaper after a few weeks. Make sure to cover the bottom of the habitat with enough straw because the slippery surface of the newspaper can cause your chick’s legs to grow malformed. Chicks generally need to be kept warm but should also have a habitat that has a range of temperatures. Use a lamp to heat one side of the habitat while keeping the other side cooler. This allows your chick to freely decide at which temperature she feels more comfortable throughout the day.  Construct a heat source using a 100watt light bulb in a reflective clamp style lamp or an infrared reptile heat bulb. Install either option on one side of the habitat. You can get both...

You can make both a paper and a fabric scroll look old and ancient. The choice depends on what you are doing with the scroll. For example, party invitations would be best as paper scrolls, but hanging art and gifts might be better as fabric scrolls. The process of making the scroll look old should be done prior to assembling the scroll. Paint, draw, or print your artwork on the scroll.  When you make the paper or fabric look old, some colors of your artwork may change. The best artwork color to use is black if you want an authentic antique look. Use a foam paintbrush to paint brewed black coffee or tea onto the fabric or paper. Coffee will be much darker than tea.  Dip the paintbrush in the coffee or tea and gently squeeze some excess out. Paint the coffee or tea all over. Use different stroke angles and different levels of saturation. Try not to make it uniform. Having some areas darker than others is good for achieving an antiquated look. A few steps can finish the antique look on your paper or fabric.  For paper, after putting the coffee on, you can put the paper in the oven at the lowest setting for about 5 minutes, or until it is dry. You can also carefully burn the edges of the paper by holding a candle up to the edge of the paper and then blowing it out before it burns too far in. Repeat this process around the perimeter of the paper.  For fabric, after the fabric has dried, cut the edges to fray them. This will only work with some types of fabric, like burlap. If you have a fabric that won't fray, try painting extra coffee or tea around parts of the edges to make them darker. When the fabric or paper is completely dry, you can begin to assemble the scroll.  Attach the dowels with glue or by sewing. Add embellishments like a hanging ribbon or wooden ornament on the dowels. Roll the scroll or hang it on the wall.

A herniated disc (also known as a ruptured disc, slipped disc, pinched nerve, and other names) is a type of injury that happens when one of the fluid-filled discs between the vertebrae of the back breaks, spilling fluid into the surrounding area which can cause painful inflammation and nerve pain. Generally, herniated disc injuries fall into one of two categories, so, to start, pick which one of these you want to fake:   Pinched nerve: The actual disc itself (usually in the lower back) may or may not experience pain and inflammation. In addition to this, shooting pain called sciatica will occur in one or both of the legs or from the neck down the arm.  Local Disc Pain: In this injury, just the area around the disc itself experiences pain and inflammation. The rest of this section will focus mostly on faking a pinched nerve injury because it's a little harder to do. To fake local disc pain, you'll want to act like your lower back is painfully sore and stiff (like a bruise) and that bending, twisting, or carrying heavy weights causes you intense pain. One of the "textbook" symptoms of nerve pain from a herniated disc is the appearance of sudden, intense pains in one or more of the limbs after the injury. This is caused by the fluid from the broken disc pressing on the base of the nerve and creating the sensation of pain even though the limb is not actually injured. Most commonly, a herniated disc will cause these shooting pains in one or both legs, though they can also sometimes lead to pains between the neck and arm.   Leg pain is usually most intense in the buttocks or hamstring, though it can also occur in the calf or foot. Arm pain can be centered in the neck, shoulder, elbow, hand, or the arm itself. In either case, the pain can be so bad that it causes you to grunt or wince and stop what you're doing, even if you're used to it. The pain usually occurs when performing an activity that puts stress on the lower back, not the limb itself. These include: Standing up or sitting down. Leaning back Bending or...

There are different possibilities, such as using a renowned publisher, vanity publishing or publishing eBooks or blogs online. Choose a well known publisher and half the battle can be won for bestseller status. Suggested examples are Oxford University Press and Penguin Books, which publish many bestsellers. However, publishers reject a lot of attempts at book deals, so have a huge list to work through and don't give up. Keep sending that manuscript out, again and again until it gets accepted. If not, vanity publishing is more accessible than ever. If you've chosen to use an established publisher and they've accepted your work, expect them to market the daylights out of the book. If they don't, ask why not. If you don't like the answer, you might need to return to the drawing board but it is worth pushing them before giving up. Some bestsellers are sleepers. Some might need nudges from you. Share the link to where it can be bought from on Twitter, Facebook, Google+, etc. Give some away in blog or Facebook competitions. Tell friends and family it has been published (the one time you can guilt them into helping through this whole process). Give some away as Christmas gifts. Send copies to a favorite celebrity. Market yourself. It completely depends on the situation, the whim of the buyers, the tone of the season, the calibration of the planet... Really, there are lots of things that go into making written work turn bestseller or viral. You can do your best to achieve this but apart from the well known (and very bankable) churner authors in such areas as crime, law and romance, most authors live with hope. Your publisher can do some things but even they can't perform miracles, so be patient. If, after a year or two, the book seems to be doing the ordinary thing, like being bought occasionally, go back and write again. It just means you've still got a bestseller waiting to emerge, so don't give up. Consider sending your book to literary award groups or organizations. In some cases, the publisher may need to do...

There are lots of possible ways to run the "cooking" part of a cooking club, and it's something that you'll need to discuss together and reach a consensus on. Nothing is set in stone and no exact way is right over any other. Some suggestions include:   Theme cooking: Choose a theme that you are all interested in learning more about, such as national country-specific cooking (French, Greek, Chinese, etc.); party cooking; baking; candy-making, etc.      Try-something-new cooking: Have club members come with a dish from a cuisine they've never attempted before.      Cooking together: Instead of bringing a dish, bring a recipe and have everyone pitch in together to make the recipes for a whole meal.      Freezer-friendly cook-up: You get to cook one meal in enough quantities for, say 4 club members, share this meal with the others and keep their additional meals to place in your freezer for the upcoming month! For those who like the idea of freeze-ahead meals but lack the motivation, a club can help get you right into this time-saving measure.      Budget cooking: A cooking club can be a fantastic way to pool resources to pay for more expensive food items.      Making preserves: Preserves (jams, jellies, chutneys, vinegar- and oil-preserved food, etc.) are wonderful to have in the pantry but finding the motivation and adequate knowledge to make them alone can feel daunting. As part of a club, you can share lots of ideas, have many helping hands and each of you take home a jar or more after each club session!      Deconstructed store food: For those lacking in time, hold sessions where you're perfectly allowed to build on bought food and try to improve on it, rather than cooking from scratch. Even if this isn't your usual theme, this can be a good one for busier times (such as holiday season) or when lots of members are away (summer vacation time).      Parents/carers and kids cook-up: Teach your kids how to cook in a group situation––this can be great for sharing ideas around and keeping your patience intact...


Решите, как вести себя рядом с алтарем. Молитесь. Медитируйте. Зажгите масло или сделайте что-нибудь еще.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

When you approach the altar for worship, adopt a specific posture, make a habit of adopting a specific posture. You may stand, sit, kneel, or adopt any other posture that makes you feel attentive to the altar and what it represents. If you think it's important to adopt a celebratory or energetic mood, you could even dance around the altar. You do not need to be religious to pray, or need to address anyone or anything in particular. If you are religious, you may wish to learn traditional prayers. Alternatively, express yourself silently, quietly, or loudly as you feel comfortable. Commonly, people pray to ask for healing for themselves and their loved ones, to ask for forgiveness, or to request guidance in making a decision. If you don't feel comfortable praying, or if you simply need to relax and calm yourself, meditation is a useful skill to learn and practice. Some people do not distinguish between meditation and prayer. Burning a candle, food, or another object is often considered an "offering" to another power. Most Christian and Jewish worshippers do not offer animal sacrifices, and sometimes consider it to be against their religion. Even if you belong to one of these religions, you may decide to make another offering, such as the small container of oil burned on Orthodox shrines. This can be interpreted as a literal offering (carried in the smoke), or as a symbolic act to show you are willing to make a sacrifice. It can also simply be a ritual you use to worship, without having to analyze its meaning.

Descriptions can be as long or as short as they need to be to accomplish your goal, but those goals are different for each writer. Both examples above are introducing the person, but that isn't always the case.  Word choice is important. It will be different depending on the person. In the above Tolkien description the pipe and the "dark-green cloth" are clues that this character is not the bad guy he might be presented as. Think about what you are trying to invoke with your description. Another example of word choice: "Rose was waiting on a bank of seats in the foyer, and for a split second Laurel saw her as one might a stranger. She was wrapped in a purple crocheted shawl that gathered at the front in a pink bow, and her wild hair, silver now, was roped in a loose plait over one shoulder. Laurel suffered a pang of almost unbearable affection when she noticed the bread tie holding her sister's plait together." This passage describes both Rose and Laurel, but gives the reader Laurel's thoughts. It shows Laurel loves her sister (and not just that, but that a certain trait of her sister's draws out that love), it shows that she is feeling removed from her family. It also paints Rose as absentminded, and feminine. She uses a bread tie for her hair, she wears a purple crocheted shawl. The chosen words evoke this description. Don't feel you have to describe every last detail of the person. You want to be specific enough to give your reader something to imagine, while still leaving much of that imagining up to your reader.   Hemingway's short description in this example works to both describe Catherine, and the narrator's interest in her: "She had wonderfully beautiful hair and I would lie sometimes and watch her twisting it up in the light that came in the open door and it shone even in the night as water shines sometimes just before it is really daylight."  A good rule of thumb for writing descriptions is using no more than three of the five senses. So if you've evoked sight and sound and smell, it's not...

Before you start collecting your kitchen scraps, you need to know if you will be using them for a personal compost bin or if they will be going to a municipal composting program. Making this distinction is important because you can compost more food items in a municipal composting program than you can at home. For a municipal program, you can often collect all biodegradable kitchen scraps, including meat and dairy. Have a mini compost bin indoors that you keep near your meal preparation area. It should be something that is easy to fill up, transport daily to the compost bin, and keep clean. You could consider a small plastic container (there are fun tiny garbage cans with lids) or use something as simple as a ceramic bowl with a saucer over it. Locate your compost bin somewhere that is easy to access, so that you and family members will be encouraged to use it. The best kitchen scraps to add to your compost pile are those fruit and vegetable scraps because they break down quickly and do not attract rodents and insects in the same way that animal products do. Add all of your fruit and vegetable scraps, including those that have been cooked. While all animal products that are used in the kitchen can go into municipal composting bins, there are only a few that you should add to your home bins. One of the few animal products to add is egg shells, as these add calcium to the compost, which will help your plants grow. There are a variety of biodegradable items that can't be composted at home for reasons of health, hygiene and inability to break down. These include:  Meat and meat scraps Bones Fish and fish bones Oil or fat Pet or human feces (except for manure of herbivorous creatures such as rabbits and horses)

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

If your child has been waking up in the middle of the night, it is important that you (and your partner) discuss a plan in advance for how you will handle these outbursts when they arise. Your thinking likely won't be at its sharpest in the middle of the night, so having a plan in place can diminish the stress you feel and also ensure that you respond consistently every time if and when your child has trouble sleeping through the night. When their child has trouble sleeping through the night, some parents resort to inviting the child to sleep in their bed. It can appear to be the only (or the easiest) way to soothe them and to help them fall back asleep. However, if you are looking to actually resolve the problem, inviting your child into your bed is not the solution. This will simply promote bad sleeping habits, as your child is actually being rewarded for waking up in the middle of the night. Inviting your child into your bed also fails to teach her the important life skill of learning how to put herself back to sleep, should she awake in the middle of the night. Another coping pattern that parents may resort to is rocking their child back to sleep. This is another counter-productive behavior, as it prevents your child from learning to fall asleep on his own. If your child cries in the middle of the night, ideally you would ignore her and allow her to self-soothe until she falls back to sleep. If you rush to get up at the sound of crying and immediately comfort your little one, you will be inadvertently reinforcing the negative sleep pattern by rewarding awakening in the night.  The exception is if your child is crying more than usual, has an unusual cry, or is currently ill, you may want to check to make sure your child is not uncomfortable or in pain, and does not have a dirty diaper. Even if you only respond to the crying once in awhile, the reinforcement effect is still just as strong (if not stronger). This is because "intermittent reinforcement" (a behavior that is rewarded with attention sometimes...

Your teacher may have given you specific requirements, and if so, you should follow those. There are two basic ways to organize a book report:  Organize the book report by chapter. If you organize your book report this way, you will move from chapter to chapter. You'll probably need to cover multiple chapters in each paragraph.  Pro: You can go in chronological order, which could be helpful when you're summarizing books with a lot of plot elements. Con: This kind of organization can be more difficult to figure out if you need to talk about multiple chapters in one paragraph.   Organize the book report by type of element ("thematic" organization). If you organize your book report this way, you could have a paragraph about the characters, a paragraph or two about plot summary, a paragraph about main ideas, and a paragraph that sums up your opinion of the book.  Pro: You can tackle a lot of plot summary in very little space. The paragraphs are clearly divided, so you know what to cover in each one. Con: This may not be appropriate if your assignment is mostly to summarize the book rather than give your opinions about it. This will help you draft your summary. Put your notes into outline form depending on how you decided to organize your paragraphs.  For chronological order: Give each chapter or section of the book its own section. Write down the most important story elements and character developments that happened in each chapter. For thematic organization: Put your notes about the various elements, such as characters, plot, and main ideas, into separate sections. Each will become a paragraph. When you write your first draft, think about what elements move the story forward, because those will probably be the most important. You can give more detail as you revise, if you want. For example, many things happen in Suzanne Collins's The Hunger Games, but you can't talk about them all. Instead, focus on the overall movement of the story. Begin by explaining what the Hunger Games are and how Katniss Everdeen and...


Решите, как вы собираетесь вырастить цукини. Знайте, когда сажать цукини. Найдите хорошее место для посадки. Подготовьте почву. Посадите семена.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

There are two general methods of propagating zucchini - either by planting seeds, or by purchasing a small pre-existing zucchini plant and transplanting it to your garden. If you choose to grow your zucchini from seeds, you’ll have to start your seeds 4-6 weeks prior to the planting time outdoors for your environment/location. Grabbing a pre-potted plant is always easier and less time-consuming, but may not be as fulfilling as starting your zucchini from seeds.  There are a few kinds of zucchini, but the squash are all generally the same. You might see zucchini as classified as ‘open habit’ or ‘dense habit’, which refers to the way the leaves grow on the bush (sprawling/vine-y or bush-like). Most bush varieties of zucchini are considered summer squash, while vine varieties are considered winter squash. Zucchini will vary naturally between a yellow-ish hue and a green so dark it is nearly black. Some have very mild stripes/spots, this is normal and should not be concerning. Zucchini is typically considered a  summer squash, because it thrives and produces the best fruit in summer. Some varieties are considered winter squashes, but this has to do with the time of fruiting, rather than the time of planting. Zucchini are sun loving and won’t do well in cold soil. Therefore, plant your zucchini when the temperature of the soil outdoors is at least 55 °F (13 °C). This is normally after the first or second week of spring, after all chance of frost have passed. If you’re not sure when to plant, call your local agricultural extension for detailed information on planting times for zucchini in your area. Zucchini will thrive in an area that gets full sunlight with plenty of room to spread out. Find a location in your garden that will supply the zucchini with at least 6-10 hours of sunlight per day, and that lacks too much shade. Be sure to select a plot that has well draining soil; zucchini like moist soil, but not soggy soil.  If necessary, improve drainage by planting the zucchini on soil mounds, or through larger...

Strictly speaking, a power nap should be between 10 and 30 minutes. However, shorter and longer naps may also offer different benefits. Thus, you need to decide how long you have to nap, and stick with that amount of time. If you don’t have much time, but are so sleepy you cannot continue on with whatever you’re doing, a two to five minute nap, called a “nano-nap” can help you deal with some of that sleepiness. Naps between five and twenty minutes are good for increasing alertness, stamina, and motor performance. These naps are known as “mini-naps”. This is what most people refer to when they refer to a “power nap”, and is ideal for most people. In addition to the benefits of shorter naps, a power nap can help the brain rid itself of unnecessary information stored in short-term memory, and can also improve muscle memory.  A power-nap captures the benefits of the first two of the five stages in the sleep cycle. These first two stages take place in the first twenty minutes. In addition to making you feel more rested and alert, the electrical signals in your nervous system strengthen the connection between neurons involved in muscle memory, making your brain work faster and more accurately. It can be especially useful to take a power nap if you are trying to remember a lot of important facts, for example, for a test. Known as the “Lazy Man’s Nap”, this long nap allows you to reach slow-wave REM sleep (commonly known as deep sleep). Meaning that you get to go through an entire sleep cycle. If you have the time, and are extremely physically and mentally tired after pulling an all-nighter, for example, this nap could be useful because it gives your body enough time to repair itself. While there are benefits to longer naps, you also run the risk of developing “sleep inertia”, which is the heavy, groggy feeling you sometimes feel after napping.

Typically, just a few days is best. If you do not think you can tolerate that long, try just a 24 hour period to start. If at the end of that 24 hours you feel as if you can continue, feel free to do so.  Remember that this is a temporary way to try and lose weight quickly. If you cannot follow-through with the entire fast, it is fine to stop and resume normal eating habits. Do the fast intermittently. Do a short fast, and then try it again in a few weeks or a month. You do not want to do this fast if you have any dietary or health restrictions that will jeopardize your well-being. It is not worth it. Think of other ways to lose weight if you cannot fast.  If you cannot do a full fast, try replacing one or two meals with just water and having a low-calorie dinner as a means to jumpstart weight loss.  Never attempt a water fast if you have diabetes, or while pregnant or breastfeeding.Be warned that this diet might have some lingering effects due to a lack of protein and fiber during the diet. This could lead to low energy levels and poor bowel health. Consider this before starting your fast. Up your water intake, eat an increased amount of fruits and vegetables, only lean meats, and brown rice. Avoid adding salt to your food, as these help the body to retain water versus passing it, which is what you would want. Even though you want to lose weight and exercising is great way to aid in this, avoid it during this time. It would be too strenuous on your body for you to exert this energy and lose fluids through sweating. Drink only water for breakfast, lunch, and dinner and throughout the day when you feel hungry. Pay attention to your body during this time. Note any hunger triggers. If you find yourself feeling dizzy, sip some tea or seltzer water to help calm your system and get you back on track.  Fifteen minutes of meditation can also be utilized during this fast. Focus on your emotional well-being and clear your head of any unwanted thoughts and feelings.

Choose the option that makes you feel the best. You have a few options:   Shave it all off. There are no health risks to shaving all of your hair off as long as you do it hygienically, use a new razor, use an anti-septic after shaving and don't cut yourself.  Use a stencil. You will place a stencil, like a small heart, over your pubic area. Then, you'll shave around the stencil to leave a section of hair with a fun shape over your pubic area. You can find stencil kits at most adult stores or online.  Create a landing strip. Your landing strip, or a line extending up from your labial part toward your belly button, can be either whisper thin (good for thick, unruly hair) or slightly wider (for thin, sparse hair). Your razor may be gel-filled and have more blades than a small child can count, but you still need to be nice to it. Any longer and it won't work as efficiently.  To trim the most efficiently, pull the hair toward you and cut in small sections. It doesn't all have to be even, it just has to be short. If the idea of taking scissors down there...gives you the heebie jeebies, use electric trimmers that don't have rotating heads. The blades can only get so close to your skin. You can also soak in the tub for a little while before standing up in the shower to shave the area. Getting the follicles soft will make the hair easier to shave on the first go-round. If you want to wash the area, clean it before you start shaving to avoid irritating your exposed skin later. If you're away from a shower (and have a desperate, desperate need to shave your bikini area -- maybe you're stranded on a desert island?), take a wet washcloth and leave it on the area for 5 to 10 minutes. The same effect can be garnered from this, too. You're probably going to come across people or places that tell you to lather, shave, and exfoliate -- in that order. But if you wanna be a pubic shaving pro (and who doesn't?!), exfoliate before and after. It'll align your hairs all in the same direction, making your razor's job ten times...

Where you will use your body scrub will determine what ingredients you will use. There are body scrubs for tough, calloused areas such as elbows and heels, and body scrubs for tender areas such as the lips.  Use body scrubs containing abrasive exfoliates, such as sugar, on tough, calloused areas. If you use an abrasive scrub, then you may have to moisturize your skin afterwards with lotion or body butter. Use body scrubs containing moisturizing exfoliants, such as sugar, on the rest of the body. If you want to use your scrub on your face or lips, then avoid abrasive exfoliants. Use essential oils and colorants with caution to avoid irritation. You will need 2 parts of exfoliant to 1 part carrier oil. There are many different types of exfoliant you can use in your body scrub, and each one has its own benefits and drawbacks.  Epsom salts are great for detoxifying and moisturizing the skin. They are not very abrasive and can be used on the rest of the body. Ground coffee helps tighten the blood vessels and may help varicose veins go away for a little bit. It is also good for making the skin appear brighter.  Oatmeal is gentle and moisturizing. It also helps your skin feel softer. Salt is harsher and more abrasive than other exfoliants, which makes it perfect for tough, calloused areas like elbows, knees, and heels. Sea salt is particularly good for detoxifying the skin and unblocking pores.  Sugar is the most common exfoliant found in body scrubs. It's gentler than some other exfoliants, such as salt, and good for reintroducing moisture into the skin. You can use white sugar or brown sugar. You will need 1 part carrier oil to 2 parts of exfoliant. There are many different types of oil you can use, so long as they are intended for cooking purposes. Each oil has different properties, such as scent and consistency, and some might help reduce skin problems, such as dryness.  Avocado oil is rich, thick, and moisturizing. It is good for dry and sensitive skin types.  Coconut oil is thick, luxurious, and moisturizing....

Sometimes, you may want to read a particularly long newspaper, like the Sunday edition, or you may have a requirement for a course in school. If you have limited time but you want to read the whole paper, your strategy will be different than if you need to read specific sections for an assignment.  If you need or want to read the entire paper, but have only a small window of time, plan to use previewing and skimming strategies. If you have an assignment or a particular topic you're interested in reading about, then you'll be focused on the finding only the appropriate articles quickly and reading them carefully. The front page section is the most valuable “real estate” in the paper, and the editors reserve it for the biggest or most popular stories. Reading the headlines will give you an idea of the most important happenings, either locally, nationally, or internationally, and the images are chosen to establish the central or most interesting idea in a given story. This overview should take about three minutes, and you'll have a better idea of where you want to start. The most important story, by long newspaper tradition, should appear at the top right of the front page. The second-most important story will appear at the top left. Also, editors use larger type for "bigger" stories.  Checking the table of contents, if you're looking for a particular topic, section, or article, will save you time, since you won't have to search the newspaper blindly. Some newspapers include mini-headlines at the very top of the page to catch readers' attention for stories in interior sections of the paper, such as sports or entertainment.< Each time you begin a new article, read just the first paragraph or two. Newspaper articles always start with a "lede" or "lead," which contains the most important information. The rest of the article fills out the story with details, in order of importance. If you're reading efficiently, the first paragraph should give you enough information for a general understanding of the topic.  If...

In other words, determine how much of your money you will put in which types of investments.  Decide how much money will be invested in stocks, how much in bonds, how much in more aggressive alternatives and how much you will hold as cash and cash equivalents (certificates of deposit, Treasury bills, etc.).   The goal here is to determine a starting point based on your market expectations and risk tolerance. Your "risk and return" objectives will eliminate some of the vast number of options. As an investor, you can choose to purchase stock from individual companies, such as Apple or McDonalds. This is the most basic type of investing. A bottom-up approach occurs when you buy and sell each stock independently based on your projections of their future prices and dividends. Investing directly in stocks avoids fees charged by mutual funds but requires more effort to ensure adequate diversification.  Select stocks that best meet your investment needs. If you are in a high income tax bracket, have minimal short- or intermediate-term income needs, and have high risk tolerance, select mostly growth stocks that pay little or no dividends but have above-average expected growth rates. Low-cost index funds usually charge less in fees than actively-managed funds.  They offer more security because they model their investments on established, well respected indexes. For example, an index fund might select a performance benchmark consisting of the stocks inside the S&P 500 index. The fund would purchase most or all of the same assets, allowing it to equal the performance of the index, less fees. This would be considered a relatively safe but not terribly exciting investment. Advocates of active stock picking turn their noses up at such investments.  Index funds can actually be very good “starters” for new investors. Buying and holding "no-load," low-expense index funds and using a dollar-cost-averaging strategy has been shown to outperform many more-active mutual funds over the long term. Choose index funds with the lowest...

Cats are known to be self-grooming, and will only rarely need a bath. However, if your cat can’t or won’t groom itself well, you may need to bathe it more frequently. How often to bathe your cat will depend on its breed and activity level. Long-haired or especially active cats, for instance, might need to be bathed more frequently. A cat that is arthritic and has difficulty grooming itself, however, might also need to be bathed more frequently. You may want to place cotton balls in your cat’s ears to keep water out of them.  Choose a bath time when your cat is calm. Playing with your cat before giving it a bath might help to calm and tire it a bit so that the bath is less stressful.  Try to soothe your cat before the bath, by giving it a small treat, talking softly to it, or petting it. You may also want to clip your cat’s nails before bathing to protect yourself from scratches. Before bathing your cat, you should brush it thoroughly. Then, take a washcloth dipped in plain lukewarm water and use it to carefully wipe in and around your cat's ears. If your cat’s face needs washing, you can also use this cloth to gently wipe it. Fill a tub or sink with enough warm (not hot) water so that you will be able to wet your cat, but not so much that it could be submerged. If you are using a tub or basin to bathe your cat in, place a towel or non-slip rubber mat in the bottom. If your cat has something to hold onto during the bath, it might feel more secure and be calmer. Make sure that the room you will bathe your cat in is warm (70 degrees Fahrenheit or warmer), as your cat may become cold when it is wet. You may need the help of another person to put your cat in its bath. Cats generally dislike water, and this step might be slightly stressful on yours. You may also want to protect your hands in arms from cat scratches and bites by wearing gloves and long sleeves when bathing your cat. Cats have different skin characteristics than humans, and so you should not use human shampoo or soap to bathe your cat. Check your...

Go through all of the baby clothes before packing them away, and dispose of any that are overly worn or stained. You should only store clothes that are well-preserved. Storing clothes that have not been thoroughly cleaned is almost guaranteeing disaster of one kind or another The dirty baby clothes, especially ones that have food on them, could attract a variety of bugs that might eat the material, nest in it, or leave droppings all over it.  Mice, rats, and other larger vermin might come to eat the bugs or the food on the clothes if they are stored in a garage, storage unit, or attic where people do not go often. Additionally, any type of dirt on the clothes can cause stains to develop over time. All baby clothes should be washed and dried according to the instructions on the tag of the clothes.  If there is no longer a tag, then it is probably safe to just wash and dry the article of clothing along with others that are made of the same type of material. Ironing clothes before storage is optional, because the clothes are likely to become wrinkled over time anyway (even if they are hung in a garment bag). There are also some vermin that might be attracted to the scent of sprayed starch if it is used on the baby clothes during ironing. Over time metal buttons can corrode and leave stains on clothing. Therefore you should remove them and store them in a separate box. Keep this box in a safe place, so you can re-attach the buttons in future. It's a good idea to sort the baby clothes into different categories so you can easily find what you're looking for in future. You can sort the baby clothes by size (0-6 months, 6-12 months, etc) or by season (summer clothes and winter clothes).

If you're portraying a younger Hermione, go for a bushy, somewhat large hairstyle. If you're depicting an older Hermione, go for loose waves that may be pinned against the side of your head. Remember, Hermione has medium-brown hair, so avoid light brown or blonde hair colors. If you're portraying a younger Hermione, blow dry and brush your hair to create lots of volume. Don't use hairspray, but let your hair be frizzy and loose. To easily create wavy hair, rub mousse through your wet hair, part your hair into two sections and braid each part. You should end up with two braids running down the sides of your head. Let your hair dry in braids before unbraiding. Your hair should now have kinks and waves. Hermione isn't known for stylish dressing and lots of makeup. Instead, keep your look natural. Consider applying concealer, a basic powder, and a bit of blush. Use a pale pink lip gloss for a younger Hermione or a matte lipstick for an older Hermione. If you're portraying an older Hermione and want to wear eye makeup, use natural shades, such as taupes or beiges and avoid eyeliner. Use a basic mascara and keep the eye makeup simple. Avoid any eye makeup if you're going for young Hermione, but consider filling in your eyebrows to make them bushier.

There are several different types of modeling jobs that are inclusive to shorter people. While the high fashion modeling world is reserved for the tall and skinny, but there’s still plenty of other options. Consider some of the following options while complying your portfolio:  Editorial print Commercial print Catalogue modeling Plus size modeling Glamour modeling Body parts modeling TV commercials Real life modeling (TV/film extras) For a beginner model, you should include 5-8 photos for your portfolio. The key to having a successful portfolio is it’s ability to convey the range of modeling you can do. If you have a few photos using one photographer, reach out and work with other artists. The beauty of photographs is that they rarely convey your height, unless you stand next to something that shows a scale.  Avoid any photographs with other people if they are much taller than you. You should show your ability to demonstrate different characters. One way is to try an array of different wardrobes and makeup styles.  If one of your photos is in black and white, but you think it is a great picture that is different from the rest, include it to the portfolio. There are several examples you can find online of modeling portfolios. Examples will help guide you in your presentation, but will also show where you can add more personality. Consider adding a high quality photo of you engaging in a hobby of yours. For example, if you are passionate about cooking, include a tasteful photo of you in the kitchen.  You should make sure to include a wide array of photos, but don't feel like you can't include any personal photos. Include a unique attribute about yourself that isn't inhibited by being short. For example, you can portray a range of faces. This type of attribute will show your skills and agencies might be less concerned with your height. Sometimes personalized photographs will stand out more for agencies. Print the photos in high definition in your preferred size. Most metropolitan markets accept the standard size...

No matter how you put up your rug, you need to figure out the rug's orientation on the wall. For some rugs, it will not matter which side you put up. For others with an irregular pattern, the placement on the wall is very important. A casing is a long, banded strip of fabric that will secure the rod when the rug is mounted. Use a sturdy fabric, such as heavy cotton, linen, or cotton twill rug binding, for the mounting strip. This method evenly distributes the weight of the rug, and provides one of the most secure and safe ways to display your rug. Hanging this way can work for any size or height rug, but is best for heavier rugs. The mounting band should cover most of the length of the rug. Allow enough space on each end of the rug for the edge of the rod. The amount of space left on each edge of the rug will vary depending on the size of the rug, but it should be at least one or two inches. Lay the rod along the top edge of the back of the rug. Place the material for the mounting band over the rod, fitting it snugly against the rod. Mark the sewing line on each side of the band with pins or ink.  Make sure the rod has room to slide in and out of the band; otherwise, the rod will not be able to be inserted. The width of the band shouldn't be very large. The mounting band should fit snugly around the rod. Try to catch at least two warp threads in each stitch to ensure a good support for the rug. Warp threads are "stretched vertically on the loom and are therefore made of stronger, coarser fibers than the weft threads." Warp threads are the ones found tightly stretched lengthwise on a tapestry.  Heavy cotton button-hole thread should be used when sewing the casing to the rug. Make sure you sew the band in a level line across the back of the rug. A little variation won't hurt, but severe uneven sides can cause the hanging to the crooked. Additionally, having an uneven casing can cause sagging, which can damage your textile. You can sew one band across the entire length of the rug, or you can sew multiple bands...

Your first impulse might be to say, "I need them all." However, you'd be surprised how much energy you can save by reducing your use of appliances, and how much satisfaction comes from being self-reliant. Consider changing your habits regarding the following energy-sapping appliances:  The dryer. If you have access to outside space, hang a clothesline and start drying your clothes outside. You can also get a drying rack to use indoors - just place it in your bedroom or bathroom near a window. If you must continue using the dryer, reduce your usage to once a week or so, rather than throwing in small loads every other day. The dishwasher. Make sure each load you do is completely full. If you have time to wash dishes by hand using the  water conservation method, that's even better. The oven. Heating an electric oven requires a lot of energy. Plan to do all of your baking on one day of the week, while the oven is hot, instead of heating it every few days for various purposes. The vacuum. Sweep whenever you can instead of using a vacuum. Even a carpet can be swept between vacuuming sessions to remove larger pieces of debris. Electronics and appliances continue sapping energy while they're plugged in, even when they're switched to "off." Make a habit of unplugging everything that's not in use, especially computers, TVs and sound systems, which use up the most energy.  Don't forget small appliances like coffee makers, hair dryers and phone chargers. Determine whether it's really necessary to keep plug-in air fresheners and night lights. Older appliances weren't always designed with energy conservation in mind. If you have an older refrigerator, dishwasher, oven, or dryer, you may be using more energy (and paying more money) than strictly necessary for the chores you need to do. Conduct research to find newer models that are more energy efficient.

As the host, you should probably provide something for your guests to eat. However, you don’t need to prepare a gourmet meal. Ordering a sheet pizza or putting out chips and pretzels is fine too. Your guests will probably be more interested in socializing than doing anything else. Make sure that you have something for everyone. For example, if you have a friend who is a vegan or vegetarian, then try to avoid having nothing but all meat and cheese snacks. You might have some friends who love to cook and others who don’t know how to boil water. Ask friends to bring something, but let them choose. You might just say what you think you might need to give them some guidelines. For example, you could ask someone to bring something salty and crunchy or ask another friend to bring some cocktail mixers. Providing alcohol for your guests can be expensive and your guests will not expect you to foot the bill for their drinks, so it is usually best to tell everyone to bring their own drinks.  If you are just having a small get-together, then you might decide to treat your friends to a case of beer or a large bottle of vodka with mixers. If you are having lots of people over, then you should either require everyone to chip in for a keg or make it a BYOB event. There’s always the chance that more people will show up than you had expected and you may have to replenish your food and drink halfway through the party. Make sure that you have a plan in case this happens. For example, you might put the number of a local pizza place on speed dial, enlist a sober friend to make a beer run, or just stash extra supplies in your bedroom in case the food and drinks go faster than you expected.

First consider if you are limited by gas or electric. Then think about if you would prefer an induction cooktop over more traditional ranges. For your refrigerator, think about what size is best for you and the type of layout you prefer. Do you want your freezer at the top or bottom? You will need to decide what appliances meet your needs and preferences. Consider how you’d like them arranged. Do you want your oven under the stove or as a single unit, or would you rather have a wall-mounted oven? You may love that juicer that you got for Christmas three years ago, but have you ever used it? Appliances like these can take up a lot of valuable counter space and should be carefully considered before making allocations for them in your kitchen design. This about what appliances you use often and which you can store away or leave out altogether. Once you know how many appliances you’ll need counter space for, begin thinking about the total amount of counter space you’ll need. You may find that your kitchen is not that big! Think about ways in which you can minimize the number of items on a counter and ways in which you can create extra counter space. Pull out counters, which nest under your main countertop, are very handy. Think about how much canned or boxed food you keep at a given time, as well as how many other items you have to store, such as pots and pans, utensils, and cookbooks. It may be wise, if you keep a large amount of food items in storage, to create a pantry either attached to your kitchen or in another place, such as a basement.

You've already narrowed it down to street magic, but think about which props you want to work with. If you have a specific area in mind you'd like to perform in, consider the limitations of space, lighting, and noise. You'll probably want to start out in an area without large crowds or other magicians so you can practice commanding a smaller audience's attention. You'll have a more interesting routine if you learn several different types of tricks, but start by focusing on what drew you to the magic tricks in the first place. There are several suggestions below you can use as a base for your performance. A foundational skill for magicians is the ability to manipulate small objects in unexpected ways. Practice the disappearing coin trick until you can perform it without looking. Continue to practice in front of family and other friendly audiences so you can develop your misdirection skills, directing the audience's attention away from your hands.  If you enjoy that coin trick, spice it up with variations such as the coin falling through your head. Expand your coin act with knuckle rolling. Once you're a real expert, try advanced sleight of hand tricks such as putting a coin in an audience member's pocket. A coin is a simple and traditional object to use while practicing sleight of hand, but you move on to all sorts of objects. Make an audience member's watch (briefly) disappear as a simple lead in, or practice other tricks that involve sleight of hand, such as the missing card illusion. Almost everyone is familiar with card tricks, but with hundreds of variations out there, you can still find ways to surprise and delight your audience.   The four of a kind card trick involves no sleight of hand and only minimal audience distraction, making it a good first choice. This type of trick involves stacking the deck beforehand, so it won't work on a tough audience that tells you to shuffle the cards.  Card control techniques are vital for "guess the card" type tricks. Use sleight of hand to make your card tricks seem...

Some people like to write on a computer, whereas others work better with pencil and paper. There are pros and cons to each, so think about which way will work better for you. If you’re not sure, you can try each method and see which feels more comfortable to you.  A computer will let you erase and edit more easily, and also let you undo mistakes and save alternate drafts with ease. Pencil and paper makes you slow down and really think about what you’re writing on the page. Studies have also shown that writing by hand strengthens the brain. Acrostics may sound complicated, but they’re really not! All you need to remember is that the first letter of each line, when read vertically, must spell out the topic of the poem. The topic is often a single word, but can be more than that if you’d like. Consider this example of an acrostic poem about the sun.  Keep in mind that the word you choose to serve as the first letter of each line will determine the length of your acrostic. Choose a word that corresponds with the length you want to write. If the word you want to write about is too long or too short, consult a thesaurus for synonyms. For example, if “love” is too short, you might try “friendship,” “adoration,” “devotion,” “tenderness,” etc. Remember that you can also use multiple words for your subject if you’d like. This is an easy way to add length. What do you want to write about? Choose a subject that you have a lot to say about, and hopefully one that gives you the opportunity to use your writing chops with sensory imagery and inventive language. Some helpful brainstorming activities might include:  Keeping an ongoing notebook where you keep track of things you want to write about Making lists of the characteristics of the thing you want to write about For example: your mother’s personality, her appearance, your favorite memory of her, how her voice sounds, what her perfume smells like, etc. Taking a walk and making notes about what you see in your notebook Taking inspiration from a piece of art. How does your...

A large part of this decision involves your qualifications: coaching professionally requires a high level of experience and expertise, while recreational coaching is a less competitive field. The National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) oversees volleyball programs at all division levels in colleges and universities. You will need to have years of volleyball playing and coaching experience in order to apply for a job with a college program. The school's athletic director is often responsible for hiring coaches. Many high school teams have men and women's volleyball teams. Whether these positions are paid or volunteer will depend on the school and the budget. Local park and recreation departments and community associations use professional and volunteer coaches for youth programs.  Check out nationally popular programs such as I-9 Sports, Diversity Youth Sports and We Play Sports. Express interest to youth sports leagues that are specific to volleyball, such as the United States Youth Volleyball League or the Youth Volleyball Association. The national leagues can put you in touch with your local chapters. If you are better at coaching than at playing, you can coach an adult single sex or co-ed team. Check with your local community college, recreational center or YMCA for leagues and teams.

Giving in order to get what you want may seem counter intuitive, but knowing what you have to offer is the first part of finding what you want. There are many career fields to choose from: architecture, planning and environmental design, arts and education, business, communications, engineering and computer science, environment, government, international relations, law and public policy, nonprofit, health and medicine, sciences, and trades, for example, becoming a carpenter or an electrician.   Each of these fields involve practices and disciplines. Knowing which of these disciplines or practices is your passion will help you know what you want. Your passion can sustain you financially if you become highly skilled at one or more of those fields. These fields all contain human needs that are not going away. The way those needs are met (the services, practices and disciplines) may change and grow, but you can change and adapt with them. Do not feel compelled to choose only one skill or field. Think about how these areas might intersect in a way that makes sense for your passion or what you want to do. The more experience and knowledge you get about the fields you could be interested in the more you will find yourself gravitating toward a specific area. Each field has traditions, ideas, practices and knowledge you can learn and grow from from. You should always be challenging yourself intellectually. Make a habit out of reading the literature associated with your field. Start reading the books associated with the field that you are interested in. For example, you can read The Joy of Cooking, an influential and classic cookbook, if you love cooking. However, you can also read lots of great cooking blogs to become well informed about your passion. Every field, discipline or practice typically contains an active working community. If you live in a large enough city, there will be a group of people who are also pursuing the field(s) you are interested in. If you become close to these individuals, you can can find a...

If you see a stray cat in your neighborhood that seems friendly and not averse to humans, you may be able to tame it. Taming a stray cat can be a difficult process that lasts several months. A feral cat may never behave the same way a domesticated house cat would, but many reach a point where they make loving pets and are able to live indoors.  Some stray cats are actually lost cats that were previously domesticated.  Providing food, shelter and attention is often the only thing required to tame a lost cat.  Try leaving some food out for them and then petting them when they come close.  If they allow it, there is a good chance they are a lost cat. Try to track down the owner before claiming the cat as your own.  Look around town for any posters or fliers that might have been put up for this lost cat.  Talk with your local human society and veterinarians to ask if anyone is looking for the cat you have found.  It’s much easier to tame feral kittens than feral adult cats.  Kittens have yet to learn the behaviors of either indoor or outdoor life.  Adult cats are set in their old ways and habits and it can be tough to retrain an older cat. Socialize a feral kitten before it is eight weeks old.  Socializing early on will help them grow comfortable with behaviors expected from an indoor cat.  You should also let kittens stay with their mother until they are four weeks old. Newborn kittens will still have an umbilical cord stump on their stomach.  They will also no open their eyes until seven to fourteen days have passed.  If the kittens incisor teeth have grown in, it's likely about two weeks old.  If you notice any teeth behind the canine and incisor teeth, where our molars are, the kitten is at least four weeks old.  If the kitten has all of it's adult teeth, you can assume it to be around four months old.  If a cat seems aggressive or hostile towards you, leave it alone. You won't be able to simply pick up a feral cat with your hands. Feral cats are wild animals that must be handled with extreme care. The best...
