Article: When the floor builds up debris, that can lead to damage to your floor. Shoes will grind in the dirt, making scratches on the floor. Vacuuming and sweeping regularly can help prevent this problem. One of the main sources of dirt in your home is what's tracked in from outside on shoes. To help decrease the amount of dirt, bacteria, and toxins brought in, add welcome mats and rugs at the entryways, so the dirt can collect on them instead of your floors. It can also help to put a rug near your sinks to catch any water overflow. Furniture legs can cause scratches on your hardwood floors. To help prevent this problem, use felt protectors or furniture socks on the bottom of the legs, so that your furniture slides easily across the floor instead of scratching it. Similarly, don't walk over your floors with high heels or cleats, as they can cause dents. In fact, it can help to just remove all shoes at the door. Another way to prevent scratches is to make sure your pets' claws are always trimmed. Waxing these floors can make them too slippery to walk on easily. It can also make the floor dull more quickly. Similarly, you don't need to buff or polish these floors, as the polyurethane coating doesn't need it. Despite its durable finish, polyurethane flooring can start to wear out eventually. If this does happen, you can revitalize your floor with a restoring product (such as Minwax, Rejuvenate, or Bruce). In these circumstances, it can be helpful to screen or buff the floor before applying the restoring product.

Clean regularly. Add throw rugs at entryways. Prevent scratching from furniture with felt protectors. Don't buff, polish, or wax.
Article: Wrap your lobster in a few layers of cool, dampnot dripping wetnewspaper. Cool water will keep your lobster's metabolism low so they remain docile and sluggish. Dry lobsters are more likely to die before you're ready to prepare them. Use saltwater to dampen the newspapers. Tap water can kill your lobster. Containers with a simple opening, like a cooler or a cardboard box, work well for storing lobsters. Store 1 or 2 lobsters in the container at a time to avoid contention between your lobsters. The colder your lobster is, the less it will move. If you do not use a cooler to store your lobster, add in at least 1 or 2 ice packs. Make enough room for your lobster's container and slide it carefully into the fridge. If possible, put it in the darkest or coolest corner of the fridge to keep your lobster's metabolism down. Lobsters with a low metabolism move and struggle less. Set a timer for 5-6 hours and, when the timer goes off, remove your lobster from the container to check its newspaper wrapping. If the newspaper is dry or warm, change the newspapers for new, damp wrapping. Do not keep your lobster out on the counter for any longer than a few minutes. Storing your lobster at room temperature can dry out your lobster's wrapping and cause premature death.

Wrap the lobster in newspaper dampened with saltwater. Put your lobster in a bag or container with an ice pack. Place the container in your fridge. Check on your lobster every 5-6 hours. Leave your lobster in the fridge until you're ready to cook it.
