Throw yourself fearlessly into the heat of battle. Don't wait for your enemies to bring the fight to youget out there and take it to them! Players who take the commando approach don't stand still for very long and fare better with guns that shoot quickly, reload easily and have a high ammo capacity. If you plan on jumping into the thick of things, grab a gun with a quick rate of fire that can hold a lot of darts, like the Retaliator (Preferably with a drum) or the Rapidstrike ECS-18. If you want to use customizable guns, use the Stryfe or the Modulus ECS-10 blaster Be sure to pack a secondary weapon such as the disruptor for when your main gun runs out of ammo. Secret weapons such as the Modulus Stock, Jolt and Grip Blasters are also great in case your secondary and primary runs out of ammo. Hang back and defend the home base or keep critical pathways covered by laying down a rapid defensive fire. Defensive players tend to post up in one place and maintain a limited amount of movement within the area. For these folks, weapons that fire in powerful bursts at close range will be ideal. Try the classic Nerf Ballzooka if you want to pack a punch, or the two shot Roughcut and its one shot cousin the Brainsaw. Mounted machine guns and heavy artillery such as the Rhino-Fire (note: this blaster jams often) with large magazines are ideal for defensive players. If you're playing in a more open space, you have the option of a "sniper". Nerf "sniper" rifles do not fire darts from long range or with greater precision than assault-style weapons and pistols. designated modded snipers can be a great asset to securing victory in a Nerf war, especially when you're playing with large teams. The Longshot CS-6 (especially modified) is generally regarded as Nerf's most well-rounded sniper models, though you might also fare well with the silence and range of a bow and arrow, such as the sleek and minimal MEGA Lightning Bow or the beefier MEGA Thunderbow. Some crossbows such as the Elite Crossbolt are also somewhat more accurate with a high capacity. You can be a sniper for defense too. If you're out of darts, have a magazine/clip refill and if you have a storage stock, store a magazine in it. If your sniper is completely out of ammo, have an accurate pistol or even a silent-strike blow-dart pipe. Some examples of accurate pistols are Falconfire, fire strike and clear shot. Patient players with good aim make the best snipers. When sniping, keep yourself concealed to avoid being forced into a showdown. Do a little bit of everything. Run, jump, take cover, strike from a safe distance or get up close and personal to do your damage. Though different Nerf weapons have different functions and characteristics, it's more about how you play the game. If you're just in it to have a good time, you can make almost any type of gun work for you. Simpler is better for players who frequently play many different roles. Nerf's Zombie Strike line makes for good all-around weapons, with average range, decent ammo capacity and simple firing mechanisms.

Summary: Run-and-gun. Play the defensive. Lie in wait as a sniper. Be versatile.

Massages can increase blood flow and brighten your lips. Massage your lips with almond oil every night before bed to deeply moisturize. Alternatively, massage your lips with ice cubes to moisturize and make them appear fuller and pink. There are several ways to exfoliate your lips. You might choose to use an exfoliating scrub, or you could buff them with a toothbrush. Make a sugar scrub by combining a tablespoon of white or brown sugar with just enough honey or olive oil to make a paste. Rub the mixture vigorously over your lips. After a minute wipe off with a damp washcloth. Alternatively, use a dry, soft-bristled toothbrush to buff away the dry skin. Apply light pressure to the toothbrush and work the bristles in a circular motion. Follow with a soothing lip balm. Repeat twice a week. If irritation happens, reduce the number of times per week or rub more gently. Pomegranates can make your lips pinker. Crush 1 tablespoon (15ml) of pomegranate seeds, and then mix the powder with milk to create a paste. Rub the paste onto your lips, then rinse it off after 2-3 minutes. Repeat as desired. Discontinue if irritation occurs.

Summary: Massage your lips. Exfoliate your lips. Use a pomegranate lip scrub.

Boston ferns will do best in a potting mixture of peat moss, sand, and garden soil. You can buy all of these at your local gardening store. Your final mixture should be even parts of each ingredient. The pot should be big enough for your fern to sit comfortably without it's roots being near the drainage holes, but without a lot of extra space that could accumulate "root rot." Put your mixture and plant into the clean pot with drainage holes in the bottom.The fern can be planted about half of the way to the top of the pot so that the roots have space in the soil. Fill in the rest of the pot with more potting mixture, leaving about 1 inch( 25.4 mm) of space from the top. In many places, the summers are warm and humid enough to provide the perfect environment for a Boston fern. They do best in environments with humidity levels of at least 50 percent. If your daytime temperatures are between 65 to 75 degrees Fahrenheit (18 to 24 degrees Celsius), and your nighttime temperatures are between 55 and 65 degrees Fahrenheit (13 to 18 degrees Celsius), your Boston ferns will thrive outdoors. You can place them on your porch or patio, and they should do well. The cooler temperatures at night will help to prevent fungus from developing. If you are keeping your Boston fern indoors, whether permanently or just for the winter months, you will need to be careful about making sure it has adequate humidity. The very best thing to do is to place it in a room with a humidifier. Keep your house between 65 to 75 degrees Fahrenheit (18 to 24 degrees Celsius), and put it in a cooler room at night. If you don't want to invest in a humidifier, there are other options. You can place your fern in a saucer filled with small stones and water. The water will create humidity as it evaporates. Boston ferns do best when receiving indirect, filtered sunlight. If they're outdoors, place them somewhere where they will get sunlight through tree branches, or cracks in a porch roof. If they're indoors, place them near a window. You don't want your fern to be in shade, but you don't want them to be in direct sunlight. It's a delicate balance.
Summary: Gather your potting supplies. Pot your fern. Place your fern outdoors in a warm, humid environment. Put your Boston fern in an appropriate room indoors. Provide your fern with indirect sunlight.
