Problem: Article: Figure out when you would like to open the theater. Aim for a time when there will be lots of people in town. Don't schedule your opening night for a time that competes with a major concert or other event that will attract a lot of people. If you are planning to open with a certain new film, you'll need to schedule your opening for when the film is available. If you are showing films to a paying audience, you need to make sure you have secured licensing permission from the film's distributor. There are copyright laws that determine how films can be shown to a public audience. Contact the film distributor to find out fees for screening a film. If a movie is in the public domain, this means that no entity holds copyright. Therefore, you don't need to pay a licensing fee. Check to see if a movie is in the public domain at the Library of Congress' website. Depending on the size of your theater, you will likely need at least a few employees to help you run the theater. At the very least, you'll need a projectionist and a ticket-taker, as well as someone to sell concessions. You'll want to offer several showings of each film. Make sure you have a decent range of screening times in the late afternoon and evenings, on weeknights and weekend nights. Movie theaters compete with many other forms of entertainment for the time and attention of customers. You will have to work hard and do everything you can to draw people in. Market your theater in a variety of media, focusing on how it will provide moviegoers a unique experience. Invite the local media for a tour of your theater. Be available for interviews. If the local newspaper or TV station does a piece on your business, this will be invaluable for your business.
Summary: Plan your timing. Pay licensing fees to show movies. Hire your staff. Schedule your screenings. Promote and advertise the theater.

Problem: Article: Rolling your khakis is a trendy, casual look that can show off your cool summer shoes. To get a nice tight roll on your khakis, cuff the bottom once, pinch an inch of your roll and push it towards the center to tighten the cuff, then roll again. Aim for a roll that exposes the ankle but not too much higher. Women can use this roll to show off wedges. Polo and henley-style shirts are good casual options to make your khakis seem easy and effortless. Keep your shirts untucked for a more casual look. A striped tee is a polished but dressed down alternative to an athletic T-shirt. A blouse or peplum top can be in keeping with khakis preppy style, while still feeling casual. Chambray and denim are good everyday fabrics that will keep your khakis from looking too formal. If you want to wear a button up, try a casual print such as gingham or plaid to keep your khakis dressed down. Socks with dress shoes instantly make you think office. To keep your khakis looking nice but casual, skip the socks for a carefree summer look. Leather flip-flops or boat shoes also make good sock-free options. Ballet flats can be a nice choice for women, too.
Summary: Roll your khakis. Don untucked shirts in casual styles. Choose shirts in casual fabrics. Skip socks and don loafers or other summer shoes.

Problem: Article: Apply moisturizer to your skin at least twice a day focusing on any dry patches of skin. This will help keep it moist and prevent cracking and irritation. Avoid moisturizers with dyes or perfumes that may irritate your skin. Moisturizers and oils should be applied when your skin is still wet after a bath or shower to seal in the moisture. The following work well: Cetaphil Nutraderm Eucerin Baby oil Allergy medicines contain antihistamines, which may help because eczema is related to allergies. Some good options include: Cetirizine (Zyrtec) Fexofenadine (Allegra) Diphenhydramine (Benadryl) Some topical creams, such as steroid creams, calamine lotion, and topical calcineurin inhibitors will help to reduce itching. You can apply them to your eczema ta few times per day to get relief. Some options include: Hydrocortisone cream. A 1% hydrocortisone cream can help to reduce itching. Just keep in mind that frequent use of steroid creams may lead to thinning of the skin, so it is best to use these creams on a short term basis. Ask your doctor before using a hydrocortisone cream on your face or between skin folds. Calamine lotion. Calamine lotion is often used for poison ivy, but it can also help with itching caused by eczema. Topical Calcineurin Inhibitors. These prescription topical creams provide itch and rash relief, but they do not thin the skin like steroid creams are known to do. A cold compress can help to relieve itching and it will also help to reduce swelling. You can either use a cold, wet washcloth or an ice pack as a cold compress. To use a wet washcloth, hold a washcloth under cool running water and then wring out the excess water. Hold the washcloth on your skin for about five minutes. Then, dry the area thoroughly and apply moisturizer. To use an ice pack wrap it in a clean cotton cloth or paper towel, then hold the ice pack against your eczema for up to 20 minutes. Give your skin a chance to return to its normal temperature before using the ice pack again or you may cause tissue damage. If you scratch, you will irritate the area and may break the skin. This will allow bacteria to get in and make you more prone to infection. If you scratch without thinking about it, try: Putting a bandage on it. Keeping your nails trimmed. Wearing a pair of cotton gloves at night. This is particularly enjoyable on a cold winter day and it may help to reduce itching and soothe your skin. Draw a warm bath and then sprinkle baking soda, uncooked oatmeal, or colloidal oatmeal into the water. Relax for 15 minutes, and then get out. Apply moisturizer to your wet skin. This will help seal the moisture into your skin. Some people wait 20 minutes after drying the skin otherwise the moisturizer can penetrate too quickly causing added irritation. This may sting a bit, but it will help to kill any bacteria that may be growing in the irritated or broken skin. In the summer a swim in the ocean would help, but during winter, you will need to mix your own salt solution. Dissolve several teaspoons of table salt into a cup of warm water. Using washcloth, dab it onto the eczema patch and let it dry. Always consult your doctor before trying alternative medicines, particularly herbal supplements, which may interact with other medications. These methods have not been scientifically proven to help, but anecdotal evidence suggests they may help some people: Supplements of vitamin D, E, zinc, selenium, probiotics, or various oils Herbal supplements like St. John's wort, calendula flowers, tea tree oil, German chamomile, Oregon grape root, licorice, rice bran broth (topically) Acupuncture or acupressure Using aromatherapy or color therapy to increase relaxation Massage therapy During the winter, the days are shorter and we spend more time indoors, reducing the amount of light we are exposed to throughout the day. Light therapy can be done by deliberately exposing yourself to sunlight, or using artificial ultraviolet A, or narrow band UVB light. However, this can be harmful and is generally not used on children. Side effects include: Early aging of the skin A risk of developing skin cancer
