Problem: How to prevent syphilis
Limit your number of sexual partners.
If you are sexually active, you can prevent syphilis by limiting your number of sexual partners. Your risk of contracting syphilis goes up with the number of sexual partners you have.

Answer: Sexually active people who have only one partner in a monogamous relationship are safest, as long as neither partner has sex with anyone else. For some people, however, this might be unrealistic.

Problem: How to paint a table
Separate any pieces that you don't want stuck together.
If your table has a leaf, pull it slightly open so the leaf doesn't touch the edges of the main table. This way, the paint won't seal the pieces together when it dries.

Answer: If your table has no leaf, there's no need to take pieces apart. Sand down the tabletop to remove any thick varnish or imperfections.

Problem: How to care for landscape plants
Water the plants at night or in the early morning.
The temperature is lower during night and early morning, so less water evaporates off the ground. By taking advantage of these cooler periods, you ensure your plants get most of the water you give them.
Answer: However, watering a plant at midday is better than giving it no water at all. Moisten the soil at least 6 to 8 cm (2.4 to 3.1 in) deep.
