Article: The gelatin itself that you will need is a cost effective and easy to use substance, and when applied correctly, can give the appearance of scars, wounds, or burns to your skin. To make your gelatin scar, you'll need: Gelatin applicator (popsicle stick/makeup spatula) Glycerin Gelatin (or ready-made gelatin) Hot water Makeup (scar color) Mixing cup You should have a firm idea of where your new lines of your scars will run on your body. Gelatin is very friendly when it comes to removal, so you don't have to worry about pain if you apply it to an area with hair. For more artistic scar patterns, gently drawing guide lines with an eyebrow pencil can be very helpful. You might consider hash-mark patterns, jagged lines, or menacing x shaped scars for your look. Whether this is your face or your arm, a clean and dry surface is best for applying your fake scar. A baby wipe works wonders, but if you don't have that available, a mild soap and warm water will do the job just as well. The simplest ratio you can use for mixing up your gelatin scar solution is 1 part gelatin to 1 part hot water in your mixing cup. The problem with this sort of ratio is that the gelatin can get dried out and shrink, putting you at risk for losing your prosthetic scar. Many FX makeup artists recommend adding some glycerin to prevent your scar from drying out too fast. Add teaspoon glycerin to your 1:1 gelatin/hot water mixture. Stir your gelatin mixture thoroughly, otherwise you might have bubbles form in the mixture and spoil the effect. Be prepared to move quickly after preparing your gelatin; gelatin solidifies very quickly. In your mixing cup, bring enough water to surround and heat your gelatin to a piping-hot temperature. Ready made gelatin usually comes in a bottle, which you have to heat to liquefy. Once it is liquid and at a safe temperature, you can apply it to your body. It's always best to test gelatin heated this way on a safe part of your body, like on your hand or forearm, before applying a large quantity of it to your body. Using your gelatin applicator, move the gelatin over the surface of your skin in the fashion that imitates the kind of scar you want to have. Due to the fact that your gelatin will not be malleable for long, you will need to apply your scar to your body fast. If you are trying to create a scar effect over a large portion of your body, or if you are trying to create an intricate scar pattern, you may need to prepare your gelatin in several batches. While your gelatin is in the final stages of setting, you can tap it gently to create a puckered effect. Now that your gelatin scar is fully set, add some makeup to your scar to make it look more realistic. Foundation or concealer are great for blending the edges of the false scar, but a dash of something more livid can make your scar look like a fresh wound. If you plan on an exciting night out, or if you're the type that can't keep your hands off yourself, you might want to consider using a setting spray to keep your makeup on your gelatin. A smear caused by an accidental gesture will leave your look less than believable. Gelatin applied directly to the skin can be removed easily by peeling it off. Any stubborn bits can be loosened with warm water and a mild soap. This will ensure that all makeup and gelatin have been removed.

Problem: Article: To use borax powder as an all-purpose household cleaner, simply sprinkle some on a clean, damp cloth and wipe down surfaces with it. After wiping, rinse surfaces clean with another fresh, wet cloth and let them air dry. Borax powder is suitable for use on household fixtures like: Sinks Faucets Tiles Appliances Counter tops Bathtubs Sprinkle 1 cup (192 g) of borax powder into your toilet and let it sit overnight. After a few hours of soaking the borax should loosen any debris or deposits in the toilet, making them easy to clean away. In the morning, use a toilet brush to scrub away dirt, grime, and other buildup. Borax is gentle enough to use to clean aluminum or porcelain cookware. Sprinkle borax powder over wet cookware and wipe it gently with a damp cloth. Rinse everything thoroughly and allow the cookware to air dry. Make a mixture of 3 cups (21 oz.) of water and 2 tablespoons (8 g) of borax. Stir until all of the powder is dissolved. Dip a clean cloth into the liquid and wipe down windows, mirrors, patio doors, and other reflective surfaces to create a streak-free shine. Pour approximately 1/2 cup (48 g) borax down your clogged drain. Follow this immediately by pouring 2 cups (16 oz.) of boiling water down the drain. Let it sit for fifteen minutes, then run the water for 1-2 minutes to flush out the drain. Dissolve half a cup (96 g) of borax powder into one and a half cups (12 oz.) of water. Pour the mixture into a spray bottle and add a few drops of essential oil if desired. Spray on fabric and upholstery to neutralize odors and improve the overall smell of your home.
Summary: Use borax as an all-purpose cleaner. Clean toilets. Wash delicate cookware. Make windows and mirrors shine. Unclog drains. Neutralize household odors.

Pour the water into an empty, clean aquarium or fish tank. Measure out the right amount based on the number of Triops you currently have or expect to have after hatching. Use natural spring water, which has calcium to help the animals grow. You can also use tap water, as long as it's been treated to remove all chlorine, which is toxic to Triops. Do not use mineral or distilled water. The mineral level in mineral water is too high, whereas distilled water doesn't have enough calcium for the Triops. Because Triops need warm water to hatch and thrive, set a lamp over the top of the tank to maintain a mild water temperature. Position either a fluorescent or incandescent light about 12 inches (30cm) above the water. Put an aquarium thermometer in the tank to monitor the water temperature. If the tank is sitting somewhere in the sun or in a warm room, you may not need the light to heat the water. Line the tank with soil, gravel, or sand so the Triops can dig around. Fill the bottom with about 1 to 2 inches (2.5 to 5.1cm) of your chosen substrate to protect any larvae and prevent the Triops from mistaking the eggs for a snack. You can buy the substrate at a pet store or from an online retailer. Wash the substrate with plain tap water before putting it in the tank to remove any potential chemicals or dirt. While Triops don't require any plants or extra items, like large stones or fake castles, in their tank, you can put some in if you'd like it to look more appealing. Only use plants or decorations that are safe for aquarium use, however, so you don't accidentally poison the Triops. Never put things you find in nature, like a rock or a log, in the tank as they can contain harmful bacteria. To keep the water fresh, replace about 1/4 of it on a weekly basis. Scoop it out with a cup or bucket, then pour clean, natural spring water in. Be careful not to scoop up the Triops with it! Do not use soap when cleaning your tank. It's poisonous to Triops.

Fill a tank with .5 to 1 gallon (1.9 to 3.8L) of natural spring water per Triops. Place a heat lamp above the tank to keep the water between 72 and 84F (22 and 29C). Add substrate to the tank if you'd like to recreate their natural habitat. Choose plants carefully if you want to add decoration. Change out about 25% of the water in the tank once a week.
