article: Check to see if they're performing according to your goals. If not, reevaluate your investments and determine where changes need to be made. Generally speaking, as you get older, you'll want to take less risk. Be sure to adjust your investments accordingly. If you have money in risky investments, it's a good idea to sell them and move the money to more stable investments when you get older. If your finances tolerate the volatility of your portfolio very well, you might want to take on even more risk so that you can reach your goals sooner. It may be the case that you're not putting enough money from every paycheck into your investments to make your goals. On a more positive note, you might find that you're way ahead of reaching your goals and that you're putting too much money into your investments on a regular basis. In either case, adjust your contributions accordingly.

article: Prevention is essential for strep because it is highly contagious. It is spread from person to person by coming into contact with contaminated secretions, from shaking hands with someone who hasn't washed her hands to kissing your baby. What typically occurs is an infected person wipes her nose or mouth contaminated with the bacteria and then touches someone or something. The bacteria can survive on objects for between for several days, although it may survive on dry surfaces for up to 6 months. In some studies, the bacteria is very hearty. For example, it has survived in ice cream for 18 days and in macaroni salad for a week. Because the bacteria is so hearty and contagious, it can be spread even after treatment. The incubation period, or amount of time the bacteria takes to show symptoms, is between 1-3 days. This means that you may not feel unwell or know you're sick, but you may expose others unknowingly. Without antibiotic treatment, an individual is infectious for the period of the infection, which is 7-10 days, as well as an additional week afterwards. With antibiotic treatment, the person is infectious for as little as 24 hours after beginning treatment. The most common symptoms of strep throat are a severe and painful throat, painful swallowing, and a fever greater than 100.4 degrees. You may also experience swollen throat glands or headaches. Stomach upset and vomiting may occur in younger children. If you look closely at your throat, you may also see the characteristic red and swollen tonsils with white shaggy clumps of pus, or exudates, on the tonsils. Occasionally, strep throat can lead to scarlet fever, an inflammatory illness which has the same symptoms of strep throat with the addition of a non-raised, sandpaper like rash that may be anywhere on the body. The rash is not itchy. Before the rash appears, there may also be stomach pain or vomiting, especially in children. Sometimes, the enlarged painful tonsils sometimes have an abscess formation just adjacent to the tonsil, which require surgical drainage. Sometimes this can be performed in your doctor's office, although it may need surgical intervention or your doctor may decide to treat it with aggressive antibiotics. You should seek treatment if you have the white shaggy pus pockets on your tonsils and a fever. These are readily visible to even the untrained eye. If you have a fever that has not gone away for 2-3 days and you have a bad sore throat, see your doctor to be tested for strep throat. Diagnosis is most often confirmed clinically, though you can typically guess what you have based on the characteristic white pus pockets on your tonsils. In recent years, rapid strep tests have made it easier for clinicians to diagnose strep throat definitively in the office setting, though typically the triad of fever, pus pockets, and severe sore throat in an ill-appearing individual is sufficient for diagnosis. Other testing is available but usually unnecessary. Children will likely be tested using a rapid antigen test, which can detect antigens (substances that produce an immune response in your body) in your throat within minutes. Because children are more prone to complications from strep throat, your doctor will probably use the rapid test to diagnose first. If it is inconclusive, the doctor will order a throat culture, which takes a few days to process. There is also the option of a DNA test (called a NAAT or PCR test), which gives results within 24 hours. In the US, treatment with antibiotics for strep throat is common. Your physician will check you for strep throat and then prescribed you an antibiotic in the penicillin family, with the most common being Amoxicillin, although your doctor will prescribe different antibiotics if you are allergic to penicillin or Amoxicillin. These should be taken according to your doctor's directions. Typically, you will begin to feel better within that 48 hour window. If not, you should seek further treatment from your healthcare provider as you may have an antibiotic resistant strain of strep bacteria or the beginnings of an abscess infection. You should always complete the full course of antibiotics prescribed by your doctor, even if you begin to feel better. Failing to do so can cause the remaining bacteria, which are stronger than the ones killed by the antibiotics, to become resistant to drug treatment. This makes the condition harder to treat and cure. If you're getting strep throat frequently, or if your strep throat is severe or difficult to treat, talk to your doctor. She may recommend that you see an ear-nose-throat (ENT) specialist about having your tonsils removed. While this doesn't completely prevent the recurrence of strep throat, it can help, especially in children. Severe strep throat shows signs such as a fever of at least 101F (38C), swollen or painful lymph nodes in the neck, and/or white pus on the tonsils.

article:
Start your part at the very center of your forehead. To do this, place your finger at the middle of your hairline (directly diagonal between both of your eyes). If you have a widow's peak or reverse widow's peak, use it as a guideline or try lining up your part with the tip of your nose. Then, separate your hair so 1 section is on the left side and 1 section is on the right. Middle parts are a great choice if you have a round shaped face. Look in the mirror as you part your hair to make sure that you get a straight, even part. Instead of using your fingers, you can use the end of a comb to make your part. Simply place the tip of your comb at the middle of your hairline, and draw a straight line down the middle of your head. Remove the comb when you reach the crown of your head. Once you've made your part, you can comb through both sides so your hair lays flat. Using the teeth of the comb will result in more tangles instead of a clean part. This creates a clean, defined part in the middle of your head. If you have a natural cowlick in the middle of your hairline, 1 side of your part may look more voluminous than the other side. If you want to even out both sides, shake your fingers through your hair to fluff your hair up on the flatter side. This lifts your hair up so both sides look even. You can also spray a little hairspray on the flatter side to keep the hold. A cowlick is a lock of hair growing in a different direction than the rest of the hair around it.
