Q: An excellent way to add volume and length to your lashes is to build up layers of mascara. This is achieved by alternating between the eyelash curler and two different types of mascara. Before starting this process, make sure your lashes are curled.[Image:Fake Longer Eyelashes Step 3.jpg|center]] Select a light, natural mascara formula and remove the applicator. Wipe off any excess mascara on the lip of the bottle. As you run the applicator from the root to the tip of your right lashes, wiggle the brush from side to side. Don't forget to coat each side of your right lashes. Repeat this process on the left lashes. Allow the product to dry for 1 to 2 minutes. Once the first coat of mascara is dry, it is time to curl your lashes again. The key to perfectly curved fringe is to curl the roots, middle, and tip of your lashes. As you position the curler at the base of your lashes, look down. Keep the curler closed on your lashes for 8 seconds. Open the curler and slide it to the middle of your lashes. Clamp down and hold for 8 seconds. Open the curler and move the tool to the tips of your lashes. Hold the tool closed for 8 seconds. Release the tool and remove it from your lashes. Repeat on your other set of lashes. After curling each set of lashes, you can continue to build up the volume and length of your fringe. Instead of a natural mascara, select a volumizing formula. Remove the brush from the bottle. Wipe off the excess mascara on the lip of the bottle. Coat your curled right lashes from root to tip, wiggling the brush as you move through your lashes. Cover the opposite side of your right lashes too. Insert the brush into the mascara and remove any excess product. Brush through your curled left lashes with a wiggling motion. Don't forget to apply the product to the opposite side of your left lashes as well. Repeat if desired. Step back and admire your gorgeous faux-long lashes in the mirror.
A: Apply a light, natural mascara to your curled lashes. Curl your lashes again. Apply a volumizing mascara to your fringe.

Q: There are several ways you can complete the plait. The most popular style is the loop, though there is also the quicker wrap technique, or the fancier, though more difficult, pinwheel. The loop is the most traditional way to finish off your work. Pick up the tip of the plait and pull it under the dock plait to form a discreet loop. Make sure the braid is snug against the upper dock plait. Pull the yarn ends through the "ribs" of the upper plait and tie the two plaits together. If you used yarn, you can instead grab the dangling ends of yarn with a latch hook or your fingers to pull through. This is the quickest way to finish the plaiting. Start by wrapping the braid once around the dock. Tuck the end of the braid under the loop you just made, and pull through down away from the horse. This won't be as tight as your braiding, but tense enough to not loosen immediately. Tie up the loose braid to the wrap, using either yarn or thread. Leave the braid unfinished, or undo the last few crossovers. This should leave two unused lengths of hair. Roll the plait over itself tightly up the length of the tail, forming a flat circle of plaited hair. Keep the two unused lengths of hair separate, dangling on either side of the wheel. After you have rolled up the remaining braid, cross the extra lengths of hair between the wheel and the plait, then loop and gently tie them around the plait. This will keep the plait stiff and keep loose hairs down. You don't want any spiky hairs, or other pieces out of place. Your horse may itch, and try to rub off the plait. This could tear the hair and ruin your work. You can cover it with a tail bandage, long sock, or stocking to keep it tidy and protected. A tail bandage is better, just make sure you remove it gently.
A: Choose a style to complete your plait. Finish with a loop. Finish with a wrap. Finish with a pinwheel. Use hairspray to hold your work in place. Protect the plait.

Q: Most people will be able to come out as atheist with little more than a few tense conversations. In some cases, however, your job may depend on your religion. Other times, certain religions will excommunicate anyone who is a non-believer. You need to remove yourself from these situations by finding a new job and putting in a support system before coming out as atheist. Once you are ready to end judgemental relationships, simply say something like "I have a right to live my life as I see fit, and I will no longer allow other people to decide what I believe or how I portray myself." Keep calm and do not fight or argue with the person. Say what you need to say and don't go back into that relationship. Having a support system is crucial to being happy. In the case of being atheist, it helps to have other atheists that can relate to your experiences as a non-believer. Look for local atheist groups, or join internet communities of atheists if you don't know any atheists personally. It is nice to have a support system of other atheists, but you can also rely on the support of your open minded friends and family. Opening up as an atheist can do wonders for your happiness, but you also have to respect the religions of others. Co-workers, family members, and friends will not instantly convert when you come out, and sometimes they will even be downright annoying in the interest of "saving your soul." Be prepared to turn down invitations to church and other religious events, and to be asked to explain your belief and reasons often (though you do not have to oblige). You can respectfully leave any conversation that makes you uncomfortable by saying something like "Excuse me, I think I should be going now." If someone is not respecting you, it is best to get out of the situation rather than engage in an argument about spirituality.
A: End negative relationships. Build a support system. Anticipate some uncomfortable situations.

Q: You will have three numbers to use in your calculation. For example, say that Joe Smith plays for 6 innings in a 9-inning game and allows 3 men to score. For this, divide the number of earned runs by the number of innings played. Following our example, it would be 3/6, giving us the number .5. That means we would take our number of .5 and multiply it with 9, giving us 4.5. Depending on your preference, you can calculate ERA two ways. The first (shown above) is ERA= total innings(earned runs / innings pitched). You can also formulate it as ERA = earned runs x total number of innings / innings pitched. Test your answer using the alternate method.
A:
Gather your information. Make the first calculation. Multiply this number with the total number of innings. Test your number.
