Problem: Article: This is a classic, but effective way to rouse your children. Teach them how to use it, and make sure it is set each night. Also ensure that it is loud enough that your child cannot sleep through it. For stubborn sleepers, place the alarm clock on the other side of the room. This way, your child will have to get out of bed to turn it off. Many electronic stores and online sites also have movable alarm clocks. These clocks have wheels and move around the room so that your child will have to get up and catch it to turn it off. This will prevent them from simply hitting the snooze button. Many people find music a more relaxing way to wake up than an alarm. Put a radio in their room and play their favorite station. Or make a playlist of their favorite songs and play that when it is time for them to get out of bed. This will wake your child up and may limit some of the usual early-morning grumpiness. You can also set many alarm clocks to play music or a favorite radio station. Research shows that upbeat songs with a strong beat are the best in helping people wake up. Avoid ballads or slower songs; these may make your child sleepier. Your child can start listening as they wake up and then continue as they get dressed or make the bed. A favorite podcast can also encourage your child to wake up.
Summary: Buy an alarm clock. Play music to awaken your child. Put on a favorite audiobook.

Problem: Article: There are numerous technical signals that could indicate that a stock is about to move. Decide which ones you think are the most important and are consistent with your trading philosophy. Then, use your trading platform to set up alerts in line with those signals. When a specific stock hits one of your technical signals, you'll receive an online notification and you can decide whether or not you should act on it. You might want to set an alert when a stock has reached its 52-week low. If it's dropped for no apparent reason, it might present a good buying opportunity. Many traders think that a stock price will increase when its 50-day moving average crosses its 200-day moving average. You can set an alert to notify you when that happens with a stock. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is another indicator of potential stock price movement. When the RSI indicates that the stock is "oversold," it might present a good buying opportunity as the stock price might increase over the short term. All sophisticated trading platforms have a stock screener. Use it to search for stocks that exhibit technical signals indicating price movements. It's often the case that your trading software will let you know, without you taking any action at all, that certain stocks are "hot" or are likely to move based on certain criteria. Evaluate those stocks with your own trading strategy in mind and make the appropriate decision.
Summary: Set up alerts. Screen stocks. Pay attention to trending stocks as reported by your trading platform.

Problem: Article: After the mussels are cooked, set aside any that you wish to freeze. Carefully pry open the shells and remove the meat. You can remove the meat with a spoon or knifeit should come out easily if the mussels are properly cooked. If you've just cooked the mussels, wait until they cool down before removing the shells. Otherwise, they may be too hot to handle comfortably. If any mussels are still closed after cooking, you can slide a knife between the 2 halves of the shell and gently pry them apart. Despite rumors to the contrary, it's safe to eat mussels that are still closed after cookingas long as they were fresh before you cooked them! Select a sturdy container with a lid that closes tightly. A freezer bag is another option, but make sure to choose one that locks tightly and can hold both the mussels and their broth without leaking. Arrange the mussels however you like in the container. You just need to spread them out enough that the cooking broth can cover them. After placing the mussels in the container, pour in enough of the liquid produced during the cooking process to cover them. This will help preserve the flavor of the mussels. To avoid scalding yourself, give the broth a chance to cool down before pouring it into the container. Once you've poured in the broth, close the lid tightly, or zip the top if you used a bag. Write the date on the container or bag with a permanent marker. Your cooked mussels should maintain their quality for up to 4 months. After 4 months, your mussels may become a bit mushy or lose some of their flavor.
Summary: Remove the mussels from their shells. Place the mussels in a leak-proof, freezer-safe container. Cover the mussels in the broth you used to cook them. Store the sealed container in your freezer for up to 4 months.

Problem: Article: For much of the film, Burton's Alice wears a blue dress that falls close to ankle-length. In some scenes her blue dress is loosely draped and worn off the shoulder. However, in the court scene she wears a strapless red tea-length dress with white and black sheer overlay. Adults may own a suitable red cocktail dress. The loosely draped version of the blue dress would be difficult to buy or construct, but could be appropriate as an informal toga-style costume. Vintage stores and thrift shops can be good places to find affordable longer dresses that can be modified to look like Alice's film costume. In the film, Alice does not wear the iconic white pinafore. However, the overlay on the red dress is something like an apron worn backwards; open at the front, covering the back. You can make your own reverse pinafore by tying a length of black and white fabric across the back of a red dress, and draping part over one shoulder. In the film, Alice wears white-tinted stockings but they are sheer and not terribly distinctive. In warm weather, going without stockings would likely be as appropriate as wearing nylons. Burton's Alice wears white lace-up boots with a kitten heel and a black toe. These might be quite difficult to find. Black and white saddle shoes might provide a convincing alternative. Some websites that feature vintage imitation clothing, such as Modcloth, stock high heels in black and white that look similar. Purchasing a pair of white boots from a thrift store and painting them with black accents is an affordable alternative. Alice's hair is blonde and parted down the center. It falls in loose waves around her shoulders without a headband or other styling. If your hair is naturally straight, use a curling iron or hot rollers to achieve more body. If your hair is naturally a color or texture that makes imitating the film look impossible, consider wearing a wig to achieve the full effect.
Summary:
Pick a dress. Decide whether to use a pinafore. Choose your stockings. Find the best footwear. Style your hair.
