Q: If the spot turns purplish, then you need to give the precipitant more time to work before discarding the acid. The acid should be amber with what looks like mud collected at the bottom of the container. Do not pour the mud off with the acid. The mud is pure gold.
A: Immerse a stirring stick into the acid solution. Place a drop of the solution onto the end of a paper towel. Place a drop of precious metal detection liquid on the spot of acid. Pour the acid into a clean container as soon as the acid is clear of dissolved gold particles.

Q: If you focus on yourself and your self-esteem you can deal with an ex who seems ok after your breakup. Boosting your self-esteem will make it possible for you to recover from the breakup and be okay like your ex. Make a list of all of the good things about you. Include things about the way you look, skills you have, and things about your personality. Use positive self-talk with yourself. For example, get in the mirror and tell yourself, "I'm a great person with a lot of great qualities." When you are dealing with a breakup, even if your ex seems fine, you need to do things to make sure that you are fine. It will be much harder for you to deal with your ex if you are tired, hungry, or just plain not feeling well. Avoid eating junk foods as a comfort. Instead, eat a healthy, well-balanced diet. Get 6 8 hours of sleep each night. An hour before bed, start preparing yourself to settle down and rest. Participate in physical activity on a regular basis. For example, start jogging, go swimming, or join an athletic team. Do not turn to drugs or alcohol for comfort. You can deal with an ex who seems fine after your breakup if you make sure that you aren't bottling your feelings up. Doing this can stress you and make the breakup more difficult to handle. Cope with the breakup and with your ex by expressing your feelings appropriately. Talk to friends and family members to help you process your feelings. Talk to someone close to you about how you are feeling. For example, you might say, "Would you mind talking with for a little while. I'm having some feelings about my breakup." Avoid trying to talk to your ex about how you are feeling. They may not want to talk or respond to you the way you want them to. Try expressing yourself creatively. For instance, write a song or a poem or paint a picture about how you are feeling. During your relationship you may have stopped doing some of the things you like to do in order to make time for your partner. You can deal with an ex who seems fine after your breakup if you focus on doing things that you enjoy and are interested in. Make a list of activities and events that you would like to participate in. Pick one thing off of the list and get information on how to participate in the activity. Make a list of skills and talents that you want to develop and how you can do so. For example, you might put fencing lessons on your list.
A: Boost your self-esteem. Take care of your health. Express your feelings. Develop your interests.

Q: Maintain your hair at a volume-friendly length. A blunt short to medium haircut will make your hair seem more poofy. Opt instead for a super short hairstyle, like a pixie cut, or a longer hairstyle that sits below your shoulders. a Adding long layers to your thick, unruly, or wavy hair will reduce the appearance of volume. Longer layers are always recommended over shorter layers--the shorter the layer, the more volume it will create! In addition to reducing the volume of your hair, long layers also create movement in your thick tresses. Have your stylist use thinning shears to reduce the volume of your unruly hair or do it yourself at home. Before you start the process, make sure your hair is dry. Divide your hair into fistful-sized sections. Grab one section of hair and close the thinning shears halfway down the length of your hair shaft. Open the shears slightly and move them down the length of your hair. Stop half an inch above the ends of your hair. Once you have thinned a section, comb through your hair a few times to determine if you have achieved your ideal thickness. Repeat as needed before moving on to the next section. If you want to thin your hair at home, you can purchase a pair of thinning shears either online or at a local beauty store. Thinning shears allow you to safely thin out your hair. Do not start the thinning process too close to your roots! You may over thin your hair. Instead, begin lower on the shaft and work up towards the roots if needed. Try to thin all the sections evenly. Comb through the sections to assess your progress. Even out any sections that are too thick. Hair that is left untrimmed will eventually be split or end up in damaged ends. This leaves you with a mass of volume at the ends of the hair shafts. Clean up the ends of your hair with regular trims--see your stylist every 2 to 4 months.
A: Select a hairstyle that minimizes your hair volume. Add long layers. Thin your hair. Trim your hair regularly.

Q: This will help you decide what to keep and what to throw away while packing. You will also want to think about other factors such as the weather and where you'll be living for example, if you know that you'll be moving around a lot, or that you'll live in small spaces, you might want to consider digitizing your CDs, DVDs, and Blu-rays so that you're not lugging those around with you. An e-reader is a space-friendly alternative to books. Once you've figured out what you want to bring with you, decide whether you wish to sell, store, or donate the rest. Note that storage fees can add up, so if there's something you simply can't get rid of it might be worth shipping it to Mexico. If you choose to ship some of your items, look for quotes from shipping companies at home and in Mexico to get the best price. (Be sure to look at reviews for each company, too, before deciding on one!) Things like art and furniture can be brought into Mexico duty-free as long as they were bought at least six months before entry, but you cannot bring in live predator fish, dead fish of any kind, and certain drugs, including medical marijuana. FM3 visa holders have the one-time option to import $5,000 USD worth of personal household items into Mexico duty-free for a $100 USD fee. If you decide to take advantage of this, you'll need to ensure that you clearly mark each box and provide the Mexican consulate with a list of everything you are shipping, including serial numbers of electronics. Unless you're from America, if you're planning to bring electrical appliances, the electrical voltage requirements may not work for most of the larger appliances. Lower-voltage items, such as MP3 players, will typically adjust. If you are coming from Europe, it is best to sell them and purchase ones once you arrive. This can save you on moving costs. If you have cats or dogs, they will need health checks and signed certificates of their health by a veterinary professional, dated within five days of crossing the border. The certificate will also need to show that your pets have received their rabies vaccinations. Your local Mexican consulate will be able to inform you further. Birds are more difficult to travel with as they require both paperwork and lengthy quarantine periods that can cost a minimum of $600 USD. If you have any other types of animals that you hope to bring with you, consult embassy/government sites for specific details.
A:
Think about what you want to do while living in Mexico. Be aware of what you can take into Mexico. Ensure that your pets have the appropriate documentation.
