By leaving the actual sale to professionals, you increase your chances of successfully selling the dress to someone. The downside to using consignment stores, however, is that half of the money you make from selling the dress goes to them. If increasing the odds of selling the dress are more important to you than making money, consignment stores are the way to go. Wedding dresses come and go out of fashion fairly quickly. To increase your chances even further, try to keep your dress in excellent condition and sell it within 2 1/2 years of when you first bought it. A used gown that is in great condition can expect to make a little more than half of what you originally paid for it. There are many websites like StillWhite.com, NearlyNewlywed.com, and PreOwnedWeddingDresses.com which are resources specifically designed to help you sell your wedding dress online. These sites allow users to either sell their dresses or search for a used dress with certain specifications and finding what dresses most resemble what they are looking for. Instead of selling your wedding gown online, you could use local based advertising like Craigslist to sell it around town instead. There may not be anyone in your area who wants to buy your specific wedding gown, though, so this option is not as promising as using online wedding gown sites that will have larger audiences. The sheer number of used wedding dresses being sold online and in classified ads makes it difficult to sell your own. Your ad should grab a buyer's attention, hold their interest, and make them want to buy it. Emphasize the excellent condition of your dress and how much you loved it on your day. If you purchased it from a well known designer, be sure to use their name in your ad. Be fair when setting your price. No matter how appealing your ad is, no one will buy your dress if the price is too high. Browse the market to see how much similar dresses are selling for and set your price accordingly.

One-sentence summary -- Sell it through a consignment store. Advertise your gown online. Use local classifieds. Make your ad stand out.

Q: Trauma to the head or brain (such as a car accident or sporting injury) can bring on seizures. If the patient has a history with head or brain injury--whether it was 1 day prior or several years ago--it is important to share this with the doctor. Other traumatic brain problems, such as tumors or stroke, can lead to seizure activity. Head trauma that occurs in the womb can also lead to seizure activity. Certain diseases--such as meningitis, AIDS, or viral encephalitis--have been linked to increased risk of epilepsy. If the patient has already been diagnosed with 1 of these conditions, it could be the cause. It may be a good idea to test for these diseases. Epilepsy can be passed down through DNA. If there is a history of epilepsy in the patient's family, this may be cited as the cause. If anyone in the patient's family has experienced seizure activity, it is important to share this with the doctor. Medications, herbal supplements, drugs, and alcohol can all be linked to seizures. Prescription medications and herbal supplements can lower your seizure threshold, so talk to your doctor and pharmacist before taking or mixing them. Similarly, withdrawal from drugs or alcohol can also make you prone to seizures. If you need to withdraw from a medication, drug, or alcohol, it's best to do so under the guidance of a physician. For about 50% of the people with epilepsy, there is no known cause. Identifying a root cause can help a doctor to treat certain forms of epilepsy, but in around half of epilepsy cases this will not be the case. There are still numerous treatments available to patients who have no identifiable cause. There are some health conditions and other factors that have been correlated with an increased risk for seizures. Although these conditions do not cause seizures, the presence of these risk factors may make seizures more likely. Seizure risk factors include: Age (seizures are most common in children or older adults) Family history of epilepsy Previous head injuries History of stroke or other vascular diseases Dementia Brain infections (such as meningitis) High fever (especially in children)
A: Recognize links to head trauma. Test for infectious diseases. Consider genetic influence. Talk to your doctor about medications, supplements, and intoxicants. Accept that there may be no cause. Recognize additional risk factors for seizures.

Problem: Article: If you have a short vegetable growing season, you should make your seedbed inside a greenhouse. You may need to bring in soil and compost from outside into your greenhouse. Seeds require plenty of light, so the seedbed should be placed in an area with the most consistent light and the fewest shadows. If these are big risks in your yard, consider purchasing or making a small plastic hoop house in which the seeds can be protected. The tuber roots and the weeds can crowd out the seedlings.
Summary: Get to know your climate. Choose a location with plenty of light. Pick an area that you can protect from wind, foraging animals and flooding. Don't choose a plot where you grew tubers or had a heavy weed problem.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Are you a project manager? Are you someone who supports the project manager? Are you someone whose day-to-day work involves more than just being involved on a project that will use Six Sigma? The answer to those questions will determine the level of certification that you need. If your future includes project management, even if that's not where you're at now, then that should also help you determine the level of certification that you need. There are four levels of Six Sigma certification: Yellow Belt, Green Belt, Black Belt, and Master Black Belt. Six Sigma Yellow Belts are people who have a basic understanding of the Six Sigma process. They tend to lend themselves in supporting roles to Six Sigma Green Belts and Six Sigma Black Belts. You won't find too many training courses for Six Sigma Yellow Belts. Six Sigma Green Belts are people who work closely with Six Sigma Black Belts and are primarily responsible for data collection. Usually, Six Sigma Green Belts will have responsibilities outside the Six Sigma project. Six Sigma Black Belts are project managers. Typically, Six Sigma Green Belts and Six Sigma Yellow Belts report to Six Sigma Black Belts within the scope of the project. These are people who are typically dedicated full time to the project. Six Sigma Master Black Belts are Six Sigma "gurus." They're the experts in a team of highly trained Six Sigma professionals. They're the people that the team will turn to when the unexpected occurs and a course correction may be necessary.

SUMMARY: Understand your role within the organization. Consider your future career goals. Select a level of Six Sigma certification.

Article: Not only will this help you feel clean and refreshed, but it may also help you to relax. As your body begins to cool back down after the hot bath or shower, you may find that you are starting to feel sleepy. If you must drink something warm before going to bed, try an herbal tea instead. Some teas, such as chamomile tea, are reputed to help induce sleep, although there is no definite scientific evidence to prove this. If you have not tried herbal teas before, use caution. Some people are allergic to certain herbs, including chamomile. Although there is no scientific research to back this, many people find that some herbs, such as lavender, reduce stress and induce calmness. You can try aromatherapy by massaging lavender oil into your skin, or by using it in a hot bath or diffuser. When massaging any oils into your skin, avoid the sensitive areas around the eye, nose, and mouth. Use caution with any aromatherapy if you have asthma. If you cannot fall asleep, perform some sleep-inducing activities such as breathing exercises, yoga, or meditation.
