Q: There is a lot of variability between vacuums. Before cleaning yours, read the instructions for directions on how to break apart and clean your vacuum. It can be hazardous to apply water to the vacuum when it is plugged in. None of these steps should be executed while the vacuum is plugged into an outlet, even if it is turned off. You will need to be able to reach around all the insides of the vacuum to clean it up. Remove the canister and take the filter out. Break down any moving parts that can be deconstructed. Open the canister and drop the insides into a garbage bag. Consider performing this outside or in the garage to avoid spreading dust or dirt around your house. You might need to shake the canister to help jostle some of the dirt out of it. Wet a microfiber cloth. Apply a little bit of all-purpose cleaner or vinegar mix to the cloth. Squeeze the cloth to remove all excess moisture. Use the cloth to rub down the outside and the inside of the canister. Wipe down all parts of the vacuum that are accessible, including the cord and the outside of the hose. Do not, however, apply moisture to the plug itself or any other electrified components. The filter is generally at the top of the canister and is one of the most important parts of the vacuum. Remove it from the canister and run cold water over it. Do not use soap. Let water run through it until no more dirt or grime is coming off. It is particularly important that you not reinsert components of the canister, like the filter, until they have dried. Putting moist objects in a confined space can encourage the growth of bacteria. Leave the vacuum out in the sun, if possible.
A: Read the vacuum's instructions. Unplug the vacuum. Take apart the vacuum cleaner. Empty the canister. Wet a cloth. Wipe down the vacuum. Wash the filter. Allow everything to dry in a warm spot for a day.

Q: Add 3 tablespoons (45 ml) of extra virgin olive oil to a plastic or glass jar with a lid. Next, stir in 2 tablespoons of organic honey and blend until the ingredients are fully mixed. Organic honey offers the most natural scrub, but you can use regular honey instead. When the olive oil and honey are mixed, stir in cup (115 g) of organic sugar. Blend the mixture well until it forms a thick, grainy paste. You can substitute regular white sugar for the organic sugar. If you prefer a grainy scrub, you can add more sugar. For a smoother scrub, add less sugar. When you're ready to use the scrub, scoop a small amount out of the jar with your fingers. Rub it into your skin in circular motions for approximately 60 seconds to gently exfoliate. For very dry areas, such as the elbows and feet, you may want to scrub longer than a minute. After you've rubbed in the scrub, wash it off with warm water. Gently pat your skin dry with a clean towel to finish up. The olive oil in the scrub helps moisturize the skin, but if your skin is very dry, follow up with lotion or cream to hydrate the skin further.
A: Mix the olive oil and honey. Add the sugar. Massage the scrub into the skin. Rinse off with water.

Q: Place the skillet on the stove over medium high heat. Sprinkle them on both sides with salt and pepper. Cook them on the longer side if they're thicker than 1 inch (2.5cm). Fry it until it turns crispy.
A: Heat the oil in a large skillet. Season the pork chops. Lay the pork chops in the pan. Cook the pork chops on the first side for 3-4 minutes. Flip the pork chops with tongs. Cook them on the other side for 3-4 minutes. Remove the pork chops to a plate. Sprinkle the sage or basil into the hot skillet. Move the fried sage or basil to a plate.

Q: Your financial institution likely has a rewards program through which you can start accumulating points towards free travel just by entering your email address and a few other details. These points can often be applied towards vacation packages, or else used to obtain discounts on travel by air, land, or sea. They can also be exchanged for frequent flyer miles on participating airlines. Bus companies like Greyhound and passenger train companies like Amtrak also have rewards programs through which you can accumulate points. Sign up for their rewards programs and make sure to log in to your account first before booking trips by bus or train so that each paid trip counts towards your point total. You may be sitting on a gold mine of potential free travel opportunities. Check out the relevant pages of your credit card company and learn what it takes to earn free travel opportunities. Many cards have cash back opportunities where you receive a certain percentage of what you've spent on the card at the end of each month or year. If you can pay off the balance in full each month, consider increasing what you put on your card each month. The cash you get back may be enough for you to offer your next trip! Many credit cards also provide points towards free travel when you eat at certain restaurants. If you can afford it, you may want to consider eating out at a couple of these places to increase your point total. Avoid those established by the credit card companies themselves. Instead, look for those set up by individuals who have successfully leveraged their credit cards for free travel. If there is considerable affiliate marketing on the page, that may be a sign to take the advice offered with a grain of salt. Many transportation companies sell gift cards that you can use to increase the points you need to earn free trips. A few gift cards for your birthday or Christmas could be just what you need to get to your next vacation spot! Your credit card company may offer sweepstakes whose entry fee is a certain number of rewards points. You can also often also submit multiple entries as long as you have the rewards points to cover the cost of each entry. Just make sure to read the fine print when you apply, though. Your chances of winning may be extremely low if you don't have enough points to submit multiple entries. Also, some of these contests pay for the entire trip, while others only pay for a certain portion.
A:
Enroll in credit card rewards programs. Review the terms of rewards programs for any credit cards you already have. Look online for websites that compare credit card rewards programs. Ask friends and family for travel gift cards to help you accumulate points. Enter sweepstakes with destination vacations as prizes.
