Problem: Article: Eating out every meal can eat up half of your vacation budget if you don't watch it. If you have a refrigerator or a cooler that you can keep stocked with ice (a microwave is a plus), get easy-to-fix foods like cereal, oatmeal, stuff for sandwiches, fruits and cold veggies, etc. Pick up drinks, too. You can eat before you leave for the day, and you can pack lunch, snacks and cold drinks to go. Bring along a blanket and Frisbee for a picnic or BBQ in a park, making that a cheap part of your vacation experience. Save the leftovers from meals out and reheat them in the microwave for a late-night snack or for lunch the next day. Also, if you're a drinker, buy a bottle of wine, for instance. Have a glass in your room before you head downstairs to dinner instead of buying each glass at $9.50 in the restaurant. Take advantage of happy hours as well. If your hotel's breakfast is quite expensive, if it doesn't have a free continental breakfast, or if it's not to your liking, combine breakfast and lunch to have a nice brunch. Now you're only paying for two meals that day instead of three. If you did that every day over the course of a 7-day vacation, estimating you saved a conservative $12 per day, you would have saved $84 for one person. For a family of 5, that's $420, or a plane ticket. Alternatively, you could make lunch, rather than dinner, your main meal of the day. Not only will you spend less on expensive alcoholic beverages but you'll also spend less on the food. The price of lunch entrees is about 30% less than the same dinner entrees in most cities. If you find yourself wanting a snack in the late eve, pull out your lunch leftovers or grab something from your trip to the grocery store. Also, eating a nice breakfast and lunch and a light dinner is healthier. The cost of food and beverages in and around tourist areas is always inflated. Typically you only have to walk a couple of blocks to find food that is cheaper, often more fresh and that gives you a better idea of what the city or town and its people are really like. Here's where you find authentic food and avoid the crowds in the process. It's a win-win trek off the tourist path. Go to sites like Mamapedia.com, Groupon.com and Livingsocial.com to get discounts for restaurants, plus attractions. Apps like Foursquare and Scoutmob help you find one-time discounts also. Happy Hour Finder lists happy hours in the area. You can save up to 90% on meals when you buy Restaurant.com gift certificates online, print them and then eat using them.
Summary: Buy groceries and make food. Eat brunch. Go for a large lunch. Dine away from other tourists. Collect restaurant discounts.

Problem: Article: If your friend has been sad or depressed for a long period of time, they may not be suffering from something acute. Make sure you watch for signs of depression in your friend if this happens. Signs of depression can include prolonged hopelessness, changes in appetite, sleeping too much or feeling tired often, a clear loss of interest in things they used to like (like spending time with friends), poor self-esteem, and even irritability. If you notice your friend seems to be upset for a prolonged period of time, speak up and ask them what's going on. Ask them how they have been feeling and how they're doing. Ask them if they've had any major changes in their lifestyle lately. Keep communication open. You might also ask your friend what things seem to make them feel better, and what things seem to make the situation feel worse. Not only will this help you find things to comfort them with, but it will also help you know what things to avoid. If your friend is showing signs of depression, encourage them to seek counseling or therapy. If you educate yourself on the issue, you will be better equipped to offer some suggestions on what steps they could take to help themselves get healthy. Some resources might even be online groups where your friend could seek anonymous help from people suffering from similar issues. This might be a better option if they aren't very receptive to the idea of therapy, or to in-person support groups. If your friend expresses any suicidal thoughts or ideations, direct them to a suicide hotline or to the nearest hospital. You should always take these kinds of threats seriously, and do what you can to get your friend the help they need when they are in crisis. The National Suicide Prevention Lifeline can be reached 24/7 at 1-800-273-8255. There is also a Crisis Text Line; simply text "START" to 741-741 (in the US) and you will be connected with a trained volunteer.
Summary: Look for warning signs. Ask questions. Connect your friend to resources. Urge them to get help if they are having suicidal thoughts.

If you do not see any early restore points from before the date of the infection, place a checkmark next to "Show more restore points" to load additional early restore points. " Your computer will then start to restore itself to the state it was in on the date and time you selected.

Problem: Article: Before wrapping in the opposite direction, press down on the yarn between the pegs with the side of the hand. This moves the loops down on the pegs and creates room to loop the yarn around each of the pegs again. There should be some resistance when pressing down on the yarn. This indicates good tension, which will result in a neat looking finished scarf. If the yarn feels loose or has already slid to the peg bottom on its own, then the pegs are not wrapped tightly enough. In this case, you may need to start over. Each peg (except for the last peg wrapped) will need to have two loops on it before working the loops off the loom. To make a second pass, bring the yarn down from the last peg wrapped and around it in the same direction as the yarn from the previous pass. Bring the yarn up to the next peg moving back towards the beginning of the loom. Keep wrapping the yarn around the pegs in the same direction as first round of loops until the last peg (the first peg wrapped on the first pass). Wrap this peg from the opposite direction. After wrapping the last peg, hold the yarn in place with fingers or wrap it around the anchor peg on this side of the loom. When each peg in the row is wrapped twice (except for last peg on upper end of the loom) begin working the bottom row of loops off the loom. Insert loom tool through the bottom loop on the last peg in lower row. Bring the loop up and over the other loop on the peg to knit it. After knitting the first loop on the lower row, repeat for the bottom loop on the upper row. Return to the lower row going back and forth to knit the loops until the end of the row. When finished working the first round of loops off the loom, only one stitch is on each of the pegs. Continue the process of wrapping the yarn around the pegs and working back and forth across rows to knit the loops. Continue until scarf is the length desired. After a few rows, knit material comes through the bottom of the loom. Measure the knitted material to determine where the scarf will end. Four rows creates 1" (2.5 cm) of knit material. For a scarf five feet long or 60" (152 cm), knit about 240 rows on the loom.
Summary:
Press down on the stitches. Wrap the yarn around the stitches again. Loop last peg in the opposite direction. Use loom tool to lift bottom loops over top loops. Repeat process to the desired length.
