article: Cuticles are the thin layer of skin near the bottom of the nail, where it connects to the finger. Cuticles often get dry, resulting in peeling and flaking. In order to keep cuticles healthy, apply a thick moisturizer to your cuticles. Ointments and creams are best over typical lighter lotions. The American Academy of Dermatology recommends petroleum jelly for cuticle care. Ointments get messy, so try applying them to your cuticles before bed. It can get cumbersome to have sticky ointment on your fingertips during the day. Nails usually get brittle due to repeated exposure to wet environments. If you're doing activities that get your hands wet frequently, like swimming or dishwashing, your nails may become brittle. You can apply lotion to brittle nails to help strengthen them. For the best effect, go for lotions with alpha-hydroxy acids or lanolin. You can check a lotion's ingredient list for these substances, which are known to help rebuild nail strength. You should also try wearing gloves if you're doing something like washing dishes. This can help keep your nails dry, preventing them from becoming brittle. White, yellow, or green nails are often the result of a fungal infection. In fact, 50% of nail discolorations are due to infections caused by common fungi found in air, dirt, and soil. If your nails become discolored, make an appointment with a dermatologist for evaluation. He or she can recommend ointments, supplements, or creams to treat the issue. Iron deficiencies can sometimes be the cause of brittle nails. If your nails remain brittle after using lotion, talk to your doctor about iron supplements. A simple blood test can help detect an iron deficiency, and your doctor can prescribe the appropriate dose of an iron supplement. Biotin is a natural supplement. Some research indicates biotin may help with nail health. If you want to keep your nails strong, ask your doctor about introducing a biotin supplement into your diet.

article: If you asked a caterer to provide food for your shower, let them know of the cancellation as soon as you can. Each company has a different policysome need only a few hours' notice, while some may need a couple of weeks. Regardless of the policy, don't hesitate to call them and explain your situation to see if they will offer you a refund. If you were planning to host the shower at a venue other than your home, call them or drop by to explain that the shower needs to be canceled. Similar to canceling a caterer, many places will be able to sympathize with your situation and will be understanding. Just be kind and honest as you let them know that you will no longer need to use their venue. If you already made a deposit for the venue, you can ask about a refund if needed. Many decorations, linens, and party favors may be able to be returned. If you purchased items that you won't need and haven't opened, try returning them to the store where you bought them. If the items were opened, try finding a local charity to donate them to. Homeless shelters may find cups handy, and a charity shop, such as Salvation Army or Goodwill, will appreciate linens. If any food or drinks can't be returned, see if you can freeze them or share them with friends. You can also try selling slightly used or opened items on eBay.

article:
You probably already know how much you make per hour. For example, you might make $15/hour. But if you don't, you'll need to find this information. Your hourly wage should be listed on your pay stub, if your employer provided one. If you aren't sure, you can also ask a manager, or someone in the personnel/human resources department. Multiply the number of hours you work each week by 52, the number of weeks in a year. Remember, too that you should include any vacation hours earned or paid in a year. For instance, if you work 50 weeks out of the year, but you earn a two-week paid vacation, then your total weeks paid is 52. If you take unpaid vacations, then take this into account as well. For instance, if you work 40 hours a week, your math would look like this: 40 hours * 52 weeks = 2080 hours a year. Now, all you have to do is multiply your hours by your wage. Following the example above, $15 * 2080 = $31,200. This is your annual salary.
