Article: Place 7 cups (1/2kg) of blackberries into a clean bucket for fermenting. Carefully pour 8 1/2 cups of boiling water over the blackberries. Wear oven mitts or hand protection and mash the fruit. Cover the bucket and let it cool to room temperature. This will make 2 to 3 750-ml bottles of blackberry brandy liqueur. Add 1/2 teaspoon of pectic enzyme to your bucket with blackberries and water. Stir to combine the mixture and cover it back up to rest for a day. The pectic enzyme will keep your blackberry brandy clear. You can find it at a home brewing supply store. Stir in 3 cups (600g) of granulated sugar till the sugar is mostly dissolved. Sugar is used to help preserve the blackberry brandy and sweeten the tart berries. Since the sugar acts as a preservative, you shouldn't cut back on the amount of sugar used in this recipe or your blackberry brandy may spoil faster. To encourage fermentation of the blackberries, stir in 1 packet (5g) of wine yeast and 1/2 teaspoon of yeast nutrient. Stir the mixture well and cover the bucket. Let the mixture rest for 4 or 5 days. Stir the mixture really well every day. You can get wine yeast and yeast nutrient from home fermentation stores. Pour the blackberry brandy out of the bucket through a clean mesh strainer. To keep all of the seeds out, line the strainer with a few layers of cheesecloth or muslin. Transfer the strained blackberry brandy to sterile bottles or a small jug. Refrigerate the blackberry brandy for 6 weeks before serving it. If you want to remove all haze or cloudiness from your blackberry brandy, carefully siphon or pour the blackberry brandy to a new sterile bottle so that the sediment is left in the bottom of the original bottle.

Article: A toothbrush Toothpaste A medium sized pot for boiling water A slotted spoon A timer that shows minutes and seconds A clean towel A pair of scissors This will help you decide which mouthpiece settings to use Typical bite: your top front teeth slightly overlap your bottom front teeth. Mild underbite: your top front teeth are even with or slightly behind your bottom front teeth. Severe underbite: your top front teeth are very far behind your bottom front teeth. Overbite: your top front teeth are very far in front of your bottom front teeth. It is important that your mouthpiece fits properly in your mouth while you sleep. This ensures safety, comfort and effectiveness. Molding of the mouthpiece typically only needs to be done once. Use your regular toothbrush and toothpaste. You can also use floss if you like. It's important that little bits of food don't get into the mouthpiece and alter the shape of it during fitting. Place enough clean water in the pot to cover the mouthpiece. Bring the water to a simmer or slightly above. Lower the mouthpiece into the water using the slotted spoon. This will help you avoid burning your fingers. You should typically leave the mouthpiece in the boiling water for exactly two minutes. Make sure you start timing immediately. Use the slotted spoon to remove the mouthpiece. Allow the mouthpiece to cool for fifteen seconds. Insert the warm mouthpiece into your mouth. Make sure you are holding your lower jaw forward for the best fit. Bite down on the mouthpiece hard enough to make a solid impression in the plastic. Hold your bite for thirty seconds. Make sure you don't make an impression in the plastic or you might ruin the mold. Let the mouthpiece fully cool before handling it further. Sometimes the molding process creates jagged edges that might hurt your mouth. Trim these but be careful not to trim too much. A dentist with expertise in sleep-related breathing disorders can ensure your mouthpiece fits properly.

Article: Never stay up all night studying. If you've left enough time and started studying early enough before the test, this last-minute cramming session should be unnecessary anyway. It will only result in an improper understanding of the material and a lack of focus during the test. The best way to make sure you do well is to be well-rested for the exam. Your brain actually transfers information into long-term memory while you sleep. Getting enough sleep will help your brain store all that stuff you're studying so you can recall it later. Just like with studying, you should make sure you're well-fed for the test itself. Have a bigger breakfast than usual the morning of a test to keep your brain nourished and focused. If you have the test later in the day, pack a small snack like a granola bar to keep in your bag. Eat it quickly before the test to keep your brain going. Eat complex carbohydrates, such as whole-grain toast or oatmeal. These digest slowly so you won't experience a crash during the middle of your test. Eggs are a good choice. They contain protein and choline, a substance that may boost your memory. Have a little lox on a whole-grain bagel. Studies suggest that eating fish rich in omega-3 fatty acids, such as salmon, can help improve your brain functioning. Have a cup of coffee or tea if you'd like. Caffeine may benefit your memory, according to some studies. Looking over your notes a few more times can be beneficial. You might catch something you missed before and end up getting an answer right on the test because of it. Do not, however, spend the entire day cramming. If you've studied effectively, this is unnecessary. You'll end up stressing yourself out and by the time you take the test, your brain will be too tired to concentrate. Instead, just look over your notes over breakfast, and maybe once more the period before the test. Any more risks wearing out your brain before you even take the test. While it sounds silly, this can be a huge distraction during a test. Your brain will have a tougher time focusing on the test if it is distracted with this. Also, you may not be allowed to go to the bathroom during the test for fear of cheating. Eliminate this worry by visiting the bathroom before the test period.

Get a good night's sleep. Eat a good breakfast the morning of the test. Study only a little the day of the test. Go to the bathroom before the test.
