One of the most common surgical treatments for this condition is reconstruction surgery. During the surgery, the prematurely fused bones will be separated and your child's head will be reshaped so that the brain can develop normally. This is done by installing body-friendly plates into your child's skull that will be spontaneously absorbed into the bones over time. This surgery is typically done between the ages of 6 to 12 months. So far, there hasn't been any conclusive studies showing that it makes a difference if the surgery is done before 6 months of age. Sometimes, the eye sockets of a child with Apert syndrome can be so malformed that the child's eyes bulge out and become susceptible to infections that could ultimately lead to blindness. If this is the case with your child, you may want to consider surgery to repair the shallowness of your child's eye sockets. The roof of the mouth serves as a barrier between the nose and mouth. Cleft palate cases pose problems because there is an incomplete barrier. Infections from the nose may reach the mouth and vice versa. Choking becomes more frequent as well. Therefore, the barrier must be restored through surgery. Before even considering this, it is important to know that this surgery is almost exclusively done for aesthetic purposes only--the ability to use the fingers and toes is usually not able to be restored. Surgeons can, however, separate your child's fingers and toes for aesthetic improvement. This surgical procedure reconstructs your child's face so that the nose, eyes, and mouth function better. It can also correct the deformities that are caused by the syndrome, making your child's face look more like children who do not have this syndrome. This surgery is normally performed when your child is 6 to 8 years old. The surgery can also be done that only focuses on your child's nose--it makes the bridge of the nose more prominent.

Using your home wiring as an antenna requires plugging a coaxial cable into a wall outlet using an adapter. A coaxial cable transmits radio frequencies into a TV or radio antenna port. The adapter prevents an electrical signal from traveling through the cable and overloading your TV. To start, take a tape measure and see how far your TV or radio is from the nearest outlet. That way, you can buy a cable that's long enough. The coaxial cable should plug into the antenna jack on your TV or radio, so measure from this point. It is usually on the back of the device. Both devices have to work in tandem to pick up radio signals from your home wiring. These items are sold at electronics stores or on the internet. Coaxial cables come in many sizes. Use the measurements you took to buy the correct length. Plug-in wall adapters are not very popular, so you'll probably have to order one off the internet. Make sure any electrical equipment you use is UL-approved. The UL (Underwriters Laboratories) is an organization that tests electrical equipment for safety and performance. Many businesses refuse to use products that aren't UL-approved. Look on packaging for a UL stamp of approval, or search the UL website for the product. The back of your TV or radio should have a port for the coaxial cable. This is where the cable transmits radio frequencies into. It may be labeled a few different ways, like "Antenna," "ANT In," or "ANT/CABLE." Find this port and screw the coaxial cable into it by turning it clockwise.

You can use hooks that are easy to install and remove to maximize your locker space by giving you a place to hang a jacket or a gym bag so you can grab it when you need it. Place the hooks higher up on the inside of the locker so you can store your books and supplies in the lower, easier to access areas. You can find magnetic locker hooks at large retail stores or your local department store. If your locker doesn't have a shelf built into it, get a plastic or metal locker shelf and install it. A shelf will allow you to separate the limited space you have so you can keep books in one place and supplies in another. Locker shelves come in a variety of shapes, sizes, colors, and designs so you can personalize your locker and customize the space the way you want it. Look for locker shelves at a school supply store or a large retail chain store. Use smaller pockets or folders with magnets that allow you to attach them to the inside walls of your locker. Keep small items like pens, sticky notes, and other supplies where you can reach them easily but they won't get in the way of your books and supplies. Locker organizers are available for purchase at department stores and online. Don't install them on the door of your locker or they could fall off when you shut the locker. A dry-erase board is great for writing small notes or reminders to yourself that you can update at any time. The magnetic options are super easy to install, simply attach the magnet to the metal of the inside of your locker. Small dry-erase boards can be found at most department stores. It's always a good idea to check your appearance when you're changing out books at your locker. You never know what could be stuck in your teeth or what your hair decided to do that day. Attach a small magnetic mirror to the inside of your locker door for a quick glance. Cheaper, plastic locker mirrors are easy to find at large retail stores. Rather than having the trash collect in your locker use a small trash can to throw away small bits of garbage and paper. But don't use your trash can for food because it can rot quickly, especially if you leave it there over the weekend or a long holiday. Decorate your own jar or container to personalize it!

To create a Nether Portal, you'll need at least ten obsidian blocks. Make a hollow standing rectangle, 5 blocks high and 4 blocks long (corners are not necessary; you can use any block as a stand-in). Then strike the inside of the rectangle with flint and steel. The empty inner space should turn purple and start to make interesting sounds. Stand in the portal and wait 4 seconds to be transported into the Nether. Make sure you have your flint and steel for relighting the portal in case it breaks from a ghast and plenty of food to keep yourself well-fed. A Nether Fortress is a structure in the Nether that contains Nether Wart and a Blaze spawner. They can be somewhat hard to find, so it could take a while. Blazes drop Blaze rods, which are needed for making potions and getting to the endgame. You will need a lot of Blaze rods. Nether Wart is a key ingredient in potions, and it only grows on Soul Sand, so collect some Soul Sand (it's brown with a face-like pattern) and try farming it in your base. Nether Wart can be found naturally occurring in nether fortresses in two small patches alongside stairs going upwards. This will let you brew potions, which will help during the final boss fight.
