Problem: Article: One of the best ways to improve your intelligence is to read a variety of different things. Reading non-fiction, including books, magazines, and newspapers, gives you facts that build your base of knowledge. Readers are also more likely to be good at solving problems and finding meaningful patterns. This includes fiction as well. Fictional works can help improve your pattern-finding too. Plus, reading fiction can improve your emotional intelligence, that is your ability to read and respond to other people's feelings. . You probably already know a lot of facts and other information, but sometimes have trouble recalling it. Find ways to work on improving your fact recall, such as writing down information when you learn it the first time. When learning new information, find ways to associate it with other, easier to remember, things. Try to use or develop acronyms (using first letters to create words, like "ROY G. BIV" for the colors of the rainbow) or acrostics (using first letters to create sentences, like "Every Good Boy Does Fine" for lines of a treble music staff). Find people smarter than you are, and try to spend time with them. These people will be able to share their knowledge with you, even if it is just showing you better ways to learn things. It can be tough on your confidence at times, but it will help you remind yourself that there are always things you can learn. Rather than reading the same books or watching the same TV shows, look for something new and different. Visit a museum, see a music group, or even do something adventurous like hiking. People tend to think those who experience more diverse events are more intelligent. This will also give you good stories to tell about looking at art or listening to new and interesting things.
Summary: Read. Work on improving your memory Surround yourself with smart people. Find new cultural experiences.

Problem: Article: Cancer and Pisces work well together, as both are water signs. Cancer is mystified (in a good way) with Pisces's quiet vulnerability, while Pisces appreciates Cancer's sympathetic nature. Another water sign, Scorpio also lives in a more let's say rarefied realm. Scorpio and Pisces appreciate each other's depth and reasonableness. Both signs, however, can begin to show signs of frustration when the real world butts its nasty little head in and requires either sign to make compromises, be practical, and get things done. Virgo and Pisces share a fascination with and fondness of communication. Although Virgo can be a little bit exacting from time to time, Pisces's loyalty makes these signs quite compatible. A Pisces/Pisces love match could either go one of two ways: unburdened and complete love for one another, or consummate distaste. They'll either love each other because of similarities or hate each other because of similarities. One likes to change (Pisces) while the other likes to stay the same (Taurus). Although the stability that Taurus offers may be reassuring to Pisces, her desire to always stay the same may eventually be stifling for a Pisces that can embrace changes readily and quickly. This relationship will enjoy a perfect balance of comfort and compassion, and will endure a long stay together.
Summary: Know that Cancer works well with Pisces. Know that Scorpio works well with Pisces. Understand that Virgo works well with Pisces. Know that Pisces and Pisces make an occasionally wonderful, occasionally not, couple. Know that Taurus and Pisces may be compatible. Know that Capricorns and Pisces make ideal partners owing to their gentle nature.

Problem: Article: Remove all furniture from the room. Cover the floor with a canvas or plastic drop cloth. Cover doorways with plastic sheetingheld in place with painters tapeto contain the splatters and plaster dust within the room where you are working. Remove cover plates from light switches and wall sockets to keep them splatter-free. If there is a lot of damage (nicks, cracks, large holes), you must repair these first. You may just need to finish joints between pieces of new sheetrock; maybe you have to finish broken plaster or a plaster-sheetrock joint; or perhaps you plan to repair plaster that has begun to crack from years of settling or vibration. Perhaps you simply want to flatten your popcorn-style ceiling. Pull any nails from the surface that will receive the skim coat. Fill in the holes with joint compound. Cover any cracks in plaster walls by scraping out any loose plaster, filling the hole with joint compound, and applying joint tape to prevent the crack from spreading. Allow to dry before continuing. Dust first, then wash if necessary to remove any grease. Use a sponge or a damp towel to wipe down the surface. Use water or a wall-friendly cleaning product depending on the extent of any grime. Rinse the wall with clean water after using any cleaning product. Sweep away loose particulates with a duster, or go over the wall with the dust-brush attachment on your vacuum cleaner. Wipe light smudges with a damp, clean sponge or paper towel. For more resistant grime, try wiping the wall with a mix of warm water and mild detergent. Try rubbing stains with a paste of baking soda and water. Try mixing 1 cup ammonia, 1/2 cup vinegar, and 1/4 cup baking soda with one gallon of warm water for a powerful homemade cleaning agent. Consider using commercial surface-cleaning products like 409 and Pine-Sol. You should only skim over matte paint or primer. Any other painted surface should be primed with a basic primer, then prepared by wiping down with a degreaser. This allows the compound to attach to the surface and not slide off or bubble. If you have removed wallpaper from a wall, prime the surface again with an oil-based primer.
Summary: Protect furniture and entryways from dust and splatter. Determine the damage to your walls or ceilings. Thoroughly clean the walls or ceiling. Apply a water-based primer/sealer to surface, and allow to dry.

Problem: Article: If you discover any of the signs or symptoms of vulvar cancer and are at risk for the disease, see your doctor as soon as possible. Vulvar cancer is very treatable, but early diagnosis is important to minimize the length and severity of treatment. If you can, see your gynecologist, who is best equipped to diagnose vulvar cancer. If necessary, she will refer you to other doctors or specialists. Your doctor will conduct a physical exam to check for signs of vulvar cancer and will also likely ask for a health history, including factors such as health habits and past illnesses. Part of your physical exam may be examining your vulva under a special magnifying device. If your doctor suspects that you have vulvar cancer, she may order tests after conducting your physical exam. These tests are the only way to confirm a diagnosis of vulvar cancer. The most common test for vulvar cancer is a biopsy. Your doctor will remove a small amount of vulvar cells or tissue and send them for a laboratory to check for signs of cancer. If tests confirm the diagnosis of vulvar cancer, you may need additional tests to determine if the cancer has spread within your body. Additional testing may include a pelvic exam, colposcopy, x-rays, CT scan or an MRI, and a lymph node biopsy. Your doctor will prescribe a course of treatment for a diagnosed case of vulvar cancer based on the severity of the disease. There are many different treatment options and they may be successful if diagnosed in the earlier stages of the disease. The four standard treatments used for vulvar cancer are: surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, and biologic therapy. Surgery is the most common treatment for vulvar cancer and can remove all the cancer without damaging the person's sexual function. Your doctor will suggest a treatment based on the severity of your vulvar cancer. Consider taking part in a clinical trial, which would offer you the opportunity to try one of the new treatment methods. Stages one and two may only require surgery, while stages three and four may require more radical surgery as well as chemotherapy and radiation.
Summary:
See your doctor. Get tests and a diagnosis. Get treatment.
