This may be on their forums, through Google Forms, and through other means. If you can't seem to find anywhere to apply, ask one of the existing staff for help (or the owner if available). If you apply through an application, be as precise as possible. Answer all questions as honestly as possible. Being honest will increase your chances of becoming staff. If not, just answer any questions the owner or staff manager will ask you. If no new staff members are needed or you are denied, keep playing anyway. Continue to provide help and tips to newcomers, as well as being nice. Doing this may help you get the position when you reapply. If you do eventually become staff, do not abuse it! You will get demoted and most likely banned. Help the community whenever possible and listen to your supervisor.

If you want to attract better men, you can't repeat the mistakes of your past relationships. Instead of mourning over the time you wasted on less amazing men, take a lesson from it. If you want a different type of man, you have to seek out a different type of man. If you never had good luck meeting good men at bars, stop trying to meet men at bars. If you've all of your past failed relationships are with bad boys, don't date bad boys. When your intuition says to run, don't ignore it. When you meet the right man, you shouldn't feel troubled or apprehensive. Don't ignore your instinct. Every day that you waste with the wrong man is a day that you miss out meeting a better one. Don't be afraid to stand up for yourself and walk away. This is a no-brainer and is absolutely non-negotiable. Good men will never, under any circumstance, pressure you into doing something. In fact, the best kind of men will admire the fact that you know your own boundaries and self-worth and will speak up when you don't feel right about something. If you find yourself having to repeatedly say "no," he is not the kind of man you want. Move along, and find yourself a better man!

All companies who trade their stocks publicly are required to publish annual and quarterly financial statements showing the results of their operations, and you can find these reports (called the 10-Q and 10-K) on trading websites like Yahoo! or on the company websites themselves. These statements are a powerful research tool, as they allow you a glimpse into the nitty gritty numbers. An income statement shows what revenue and expenses the company had during a given period, and then whether or not the two netted together resulted in a profit or a loss. The most obvious value in reading the income statement is that you can see whether or not the company is generating a profit. Generally, stock prices for the company trend upwards as profits increase, and trend downward as they decrease or as the company experiences losses. You can compare the company's income or losses over time, to see whether or not the company is in a pattern of growth. Remember that in choosing stocks to invest in, you are looking to predict the company's future performance and hoping it does better than the market expects. For that reason, you can also consider investing in companies who show losses, if you believe that company is going to grow and turn a profit during the time you own the stock. Another important financial statement is the company's balance sheet, which shows the company's assets, liabilities, and owner's equity. Assets things like cash, accounts receivable, equipment, and buildings - all items of value the company owns and uses. Liabilities are the amounts the company owns to others, such as loans and accounts payable. Finally owner's equity is the amount of the business that the company itself, or its stockholders, owns. The balance sheet, unlike the income statement, shows the company's position on the last day of the quarter in terms of what it owns and what it owes. A key metric for predicting growth at a company is the ratio between the company's cash and short-term investments (such as stock the company owns), and its short-term liabilities. You can tell by comparing the two whether the company has enough cash on hand to pay their upcoming debts - if they don't, it's bad news. You can use sites like Yahoo! Finance to view graphs showing the company's trading price over time, going back to inception. You can use these reports to see whether the company's stock price has been increasing or declining over time. Most new investors avoid stocks whose prices are dropping. While you may be able to turn a profit by purchasing stock at it's lowest price, and then selling it when it becomes valuable again, these changes are very hard to predict. Besides financial performance, stock prices also reflect the market's expectation for a specific company, based on things like how popular or necessary its products and services are, or how the company's competitors are performing. For example, apple's stock price often changes dramatically when the company announces the release of a new product, and then changes again based on how popular the new product is. If you have knowledge about a company that the general public does not, or could not figure out for themselves, you should watch out for insider trading laws when making trades. This generally applies mostly to employees of a company who know what's going to happen before the company announces things to the public. Making trades based on this kind of information is illegal.

Make sure the scissors or garden shears are very sharp, as dull shears can damage the plants. If you notice any dirt on the shears, soak them in water with a teaspoon of bleach and then wipe them dry. A clean tool will ensure your plants are not exposed to bacteria or pests when you prune them. You can find garden shears for pruning online or at your local hardware store. If you are worried about scratching your hands while you prune, wear gardening gloves. If you have houseplants that do not flower, prune them in late winter. For houseplants with flowers or blooms, wait until they have bloomed before you prune them. Do not prune houseplants when unopened buds are present on the stems. Look for any leaves or limbs on the plant that are brown or discolored. They may also appear limp or dry. Use the shears to cut them off just below the brown or dead area at a 45 degree angle. This will ensure you leave as much of the healthy foliage on the plant as possible. Do not cut off any leaves or limbs that still appear green and vibrant. If a large section of the leafy area appears dead, you can cut off the entire branch. Leave the main stem intact and remove branches shooting off of the stem at a 45 degree angle. If you have houseplants that are flowering, make sure you check them over for any dead flowers and remove them. The flowers may appear brown, discolored, and limp. They may also feel dry to the touch. Cut the dead flowers off with the shears at the base of the flower's head. Removing dead and dying flowers on the plant will encourage the growth of newer, more vibrant blooms.
