These should be in the game itself upon purchase, and you will need all of them to play it right. Winks are small plastic discs that you try to get into the pot. The squidger is a larger piece of round, thicker plastic that you use to propel smaller discs into the pot. Winks come in yellow, red, green, and blue. There are 6 winks of each color. The pot is the container that you try to put the winks into. The mat is basically the playing field. It's usually 6 feet by 3 feet. Place the mat on a flat surface in order to play. The mat has lines etched on both ends. This indicates the field's boundaries and baselines. The mat is usually made of felt. The goal of Tiddlywinks is to propel as many winks into the pot as you can. You can either play Tiddlywinks in two-person teams or against another player. It's also possible to play the game with three people. Only 2 to 4 people can play Tiddlywinks. The verb "to squidge" means you propel or flick the smaller plastic discs toward (and hopefully into) the pot using the squidger. The way you squidge a wink is by putting your squidger on a wink. Apply pressure to it, and it should pop the wink forward. It can be difficult to squidge a wink when someone else's wink is on it. The wink below another wink is said to be "squopped." You must only touch the top wink in your color sequence. If all the winks are squopped, the game is over. Some people sandpaper their squidger down. This will make it so they have less sharp edges. Some people use different size squidgers for different shots. Squidgers must be round and between 25 mm and 51 mm across and no thicker than 5 mm. They cannot damage the winks. You may only use one per play. However, you can use different squidgers throughout the course of a game.

Q: Endpins are the classic type of earring base that jewelers use for earrings, but you can also use other types of bases to give your beaded earrings a different design. See what types of earring bases are available at your local crafting store and do some experimentation. For example, if you want your earrings to have more movement, then you could use some fishing line as the base for your beads instead. Or, you may be able to find some hoop earrings that are thin enough to slide your beads onto.
A: Use a different type of base.

Article: When you think you've found the right area for your hostel, check local laws before you do anything else. Some towns and cities have designated zones for hostels, and running one outside these areas is illegal. Find out where hostels are allowed, then search for a suitable building within these areas. Many local governments have their zoning laws on the internet. Try searching the local government website for hostel information. Contact the local zoning agency and ask about which areas are zoned for hostels. Most cities require permits and licenses to run a hostel. Check with your local zoning board or chamber of commerce and ask what regulations there are for operating a hostel. Apply for and obtain all the permits before opening your hostel. Remember that permits often take time to process and cost a fee. Include the potential processing time and fees in your calculations on when the hostel will open. Don't try to save time or money by skipping certain permits. If you operate a hostel without all the necessary permits, you could be fined or even arrested. Operating costs are what it costs to keep a business running every day. Account for every dollar you will spend in opening this hostel so you know how much financing to secure. Calculate the rent, utilities, and any other expenses so you have a full picture of your business finances. Remember to include taxes in your estimation of costs. Include the outlay for construction, permits, and hiring employees as well. This gives you your total cost for the project. Have at least 1 year of expenses on hand before opening the hostel to support the business before you start profiting. If you don't have enough savings to self-finance opening and operating the hostel, then you'll need funding from other sources. Consider going to a bank for a business loan. Another option is finding affluent people interested in providing private investment for the hostel. Whichever option you choose, have financing in place before you start building your hostel. There are advantages and disadvantages to looking for loans from banks or individuals. Banks may be more conservative and refuse to loan you more than a fixed amount. Private investors may be more willing to offer higher sums, but they want a return on their investment. They might want to own a part of the business and share in the profits. Consider the costs carefully before choosing a financing option. Produce a good business plan, especially if you're looking for private financing. Investors will want a return on their investment, and if you don't prove that your business will be profitable, they won't provide financing.

Check local zoning laws to see where hostels are permitted. Apply for any necessary permits to run a hostel. Add up your expected operating costs. Secure financing for the hostel.

Article: You and your ex will need to handle logistical details like canceling the venue rental, the entertainment, the flowers and decor, the cake and the honeymoon plans. Because of the strong emotional fallout after the wedding, you might ask family and close friends to assist you in handling these matters. Regardless, the burden for cancelling everything and retrieving deposits (if possible) should be shared by the would-be bride and groom. Once the wedding has been fully cancelled, you and your ex need to discuss what will happen to the engagement ring. This decision varies among couples. The general rule of thumb is whoever decided to call off the wedding didn't hold up their end of the bargain, and therefore, doesn't get the ring. One exception to this rule involves rings of extraordinary value or family heirlooms. In such cases, the ring should be returned to the family it belongs to. If your home is surrounded with reminders of your failed engagement and wedding (if not relationship), put them away - at least for the time being. Ask friends to help you toss out any wedding-related items such as invitations. Donate any wedding decor that could be used for other events, or try to resell them to recoup costs. If the failed engagement also brings the end of the relationship (NOT necessarily!), then cutting the entire thing out of your life would be cutting a part of yourself out - rather, put it away so that it is out of sight, out of mind. You can take the fondest memories out when they no longer hurt & remember what good you had, after all, that is why you were together. In addition, go through your home and gather any reminders of your ex and your relationship. Return items belonging to your ex and box up everything else to be stored for a later date, donated or trashed. If you are still too emotional, see if friends and family can help you with this step.

Delegate responsibility for handling logistical details. Decide what to do with the ring. Get rid of reminders.
