Problem: Article: These are often fun and get your mind going. Here are a few of them: License Plate Words: This is where you find a license plate with letters and try to think of abbreviations for the word. For example, the license plate is CESC686. "CESC" can stand for "cows eat seven chickens". Another one is where you get a list of most states in the current time zone and try to find each state in that area, bonus point if it's out of time zone. It's easier with time zones because if you're on the west coast it will be pretty hard to find a car from upper Maine. Think of fun things, or look out the window and pretend someone and/or something is running. It can be just like a movie if you try hard enough. Maybe you have an album you are yet to listen to - this is the perfect time to listen! Relax and unwind as you listen - you'll be in the car for a few hours. If you have a notepad, you can write a story. Say you're in the middle of Kansas. You could draw the flat ground, and design a roller coaster or a water slide. Write a story that reflects your surroundings. It can pass time and gets your mind going. The time will fly! For example, you can play jokes, such as you can start crying and when someone asks what's wrong and say something like "Someone invisible is chopping onions"! It gets very annoying but it's funny. If you want to pull pranks on other passengers, make sure they know it's a joke. Do not pull pranks on people who get angry easily. If you're leaving in the morning, wake up 3 hours in advanced and do some things to tire you out. if you leave at 7:30 am, wake up at 4:30. Maybe you can pack your carry on and food, bike a mile, and clean the house. You will be super tired by the time you're on your way. Plus, when you wake up from your nap, you'll be a few hours closer to your destination.
Summary: Play classic road trip games. Use your imagination. Listen to some of your favorite tunes. Get creative. Mess around. Get some shut-eye.

Problem: Article: Dogs do not defecate in gardens due to malicious intent. They are merely looking for a spot to relieve themselves and your garden looks welcoming. If you're dealing with your own dog, or a neighbor's dog whose presence you don't mind, you can try to create a welcoming atmosphere for the dogs away from the garden. Pick a shaded area. Dogs prefer to stay out of the sun if possible. Make sure there is adequate room for dogs to run and play, and provide toys, food, water, and treats to entice the dog to enter that area over the garden. Use a dog-friendly surface, like wood chips, bark chips, or leaves. A mix of sand and soil is a particularly good option as dogs love digging and such a mixture is soft and easy on their paws. Use positive reinforcement. Praise dogs for entering the doggy zone and reward them with treats. Sometimes, dogs end up going in gardens because they pass through on their way elsewhere. Create a pathway near the garden, but one that does not go through it. If it's smoother and more welcoming, the dog will likely opt for this path and forgo disrupting your plants. Soft, dog-friendly mulch can be used to make the path. A spare piece of carpet, if you have it, is also a good choice, as is a soil/sand mixture. For a choice that's pleasant for dogs and adds beauty to the garden, you could try stone steps or colorful tiles. Cement pathways are also a popular choice, and can be used by humans as well as dogs. The only downside, however, is making a cement path can get costly and installation may be difficult. If you ever catch a dog in the act, take this as an opportunity to make it clear to the dog that this behavior is not okay. Dogs are natural people pleasers and generally respond well to training. Clap your hands loudly to get the dog's attention and interrupt his actions. Say, "No," and immediately direct him out of your garden. If you have a designated dog-friendly zone in your yard, redirect the dog there. If not, take him to the street and allow him to relieve himself himself on a curb or sidewalk. Get your neighbors on board. If you have a neighborhood where dogs run free, and they seem to have chosen your garden as a bathroom, discuss this with your neighbors. Ask them politely to join you in your efforts to discourage the dogs from using your garden as a restroom.
Summary: Designate a doggy zone for your yard. Create a pathway away from the garden. Train the dogs.

Problem: Article: Picking the most ideal frame for your face is not entirely up to you. Much is dictated by the natural features of your face. The most important aspect of this is your face shape. You can easily figure this out by looking in the mirror or taking a picture, and comparing it to a diagram. Round face. With this shape, look into more toward square and rectangular frames that will make your face look slimmer and longer. Avoid frameless, oval, and circular frames. Oval. Pick frames with a strong bridge, and avoid large frames that will make your face look small. Square. To offset the angularity of your face, tend toward rounded or round frames. Diamond. You may not want to accentuate your narrow forehead, so don't pick wide frames that call attention to this. Opt instead for small, rounded frames. Heart. To minimize how large your forehead appears compared to your chin, pick frames that sit low on the nose. This makes the center of your face seem lower. If this is not your first pair of frames, you probably have an idea of your skin allergies. Otherwise, your dermatologist can give you a test to determine this. If you are unsure and don't want a test, there are materials that are more likely to break out your skin than others. Plastic or synthetic. These frames are often designed to be hypoallergenic, meaning they are less likely to break out your skin. They also have a wide price range. A few examples are cellulose acetate/zylonite, cellulose propionate, and nylon. Metal. Metal frames vary, as far as skin allergies are concerned some are hypo-allergenic, but others may break you out. Examples are titanium, stainless steel, beryllium, and aluminum. Other/natural materials. Wood, bone, and horn do not usually cause skin allergies. Most people fit into two basic categories for skin tone. To figure out if you have warm or cool skin tone, hold up a piece of white paper next to your face. If your skin seems yellowish, brownish, or bronze, you have a warm skin tone. If your skin seems pinkish or bluish, you have cool skin tone. For warmer skin tones, stick with tortoise, browns, and dark green over white, black or pastel colors that contrast heavily. For cooler skin tones, look for more stark colors like black, white, and bright colors. The more brownish hues will contrast with your skin tone. This is similar to your skin there are two main categories of hair tones. Some cool hair colors are strawberry-blonde, blue-black, and white. Examples of warmer hair colors are brownish-black, golden blonde, and gray. Apply the same rules for frame color as with your skin tone. If your hair color and glasses frames don't look good together in the optical, then you will hate the glasses at home!
Summary:
Determine your face shape. Figure out skin allergies. Look at your skin tone. Consider your hair color.
