Q: If you know the cemetery where someone is buried but you're not sure exactly which plot is theirs, take a trip to the graveyard. Plan to go early in the day, in case it takes you a while to find the exact location. Since you'll be walking around outside, bring along a bottle of water, and apply sunscreen before you leave the house. If you're going in the summertime, you'll need to reapply the sunscreen if you'll be outside for more than 2 hours. Depending on the time of year and where you're going, it may be a good idea to bring bug spray. Some cemeteries have websites with a map of all of the graves on their grounds, while others will have maps available on site. If you can find a map, it could save you a lot of walking while you search for an individual grave. Some of these maps will list individual graves, while others might include only family plots. Some may even be just a basic grid outline of the cemetery, but even that can help you streamline your search. If you don't know the general location of the grave, it's best to start in one corner of the cemetery and walk along the pathway from one end to the other. That way, you don't end up accidentally looking in the same areas you've already been. It may be helpful to bring a piece of paper and a pencil and draw a rough diagram of the cemetery to help you keep track of the plots you already looked at. If it's a very large cemetery, you may need to have someone else start at the other side or break your visit into multiple days. The cemetery sexton is the person in charge of overseeing the grounds. In addition to performing general maintenance in the cemetery, the sexton also keeps records of all of the burials. They should be able to tell you the exact location of the gravesite. You might also be able to speak to the clergy who oversaw the services. Even if they don't have a record, they may remember the general area in which the person is buried. Some cemeteries are owned by the funeral home itself. If that's the case, you can contact the director of the funeral home to find out the location of the grave. Often in this situation, the funeral home will be located on the grounds of the cemetery. In a cemetery, you'll often see last names grouped together. If you see another grave with the same family name as the person you're looking for, you may be getting close. This is because families often buy multiple graves at the same time so they can be laid to rest together. These groupings are called family plots. Just because you find a gravesite with the same name as the person you're looking for, it doesn't necessarily mean you've found them. Check the information on the headstone to see if the birth and death dates match up to verify it's the right grave. If you don't know the person's exact date of birth or when they died, at least try to estimate when they would have lived.
A: Visit the cemetery if you know where it is. Look online or at the visitor's center for a map. Start at one side of the cemetery and make a pattern. Reach out to the sexton of the cemetery if you still can't find the grave. Contact the funeral home for help if the cemetery is privately owned. Look for a family plot with the person's last name. Compare the birth and death dates with the time the person lived.

Article: For best results, purchase a growing medium designed specifically for propagating from seeds and cuttings. You can also use a mixture of commercial potting soil, organic garden compost, and sand. Leave about inch (0.64 cm) at the top of the container to allow space for watering. When using a packaged soil, consider mixing in perlite, vermiculite, or horticultural grit to promote proper drainage. You'll only be caring for your bougainvillea in this container until it takes root, so a pot as small as 23 inches (5.17.6cm) will work just fine. Sink the stem 1.52 inches (3.85.1cm) below the surface of the soil to ensure that it's anchored firmly. If you're working with a denser soil mixture and you're worried about damaging the stem, it may help to first open up a narrow hole using a pencil or similar object. Inserting the stem into the soil at a slight angle may help more of the existing nodes sprout into roots. Use only one cutting per pot to provide plenty of room for growth and prevent competition. Use enough water to moisten the surface of the soil without oversaturating it. After watering, allow the cutting to sit undisturbed. A healthy drink will encourage it to begin putting down new roots. Be careful not to overwater your bougainvillea cutting. Too much moisture could inhibit the rooting process, or even lead to more harmful complications like rotting or fungal disease. The surrounding layer of plastic will create a miniature greenhouse effect, trapping in humidity. In just a few weeks, the abundance of moisture will help the plant begin growing on its own. Once it's covered, pick out a cool, shady spot inside your home away from direct heat or sunlight to store the cutting. Seal the bag by tying or zipping, if possible. Otherwise, it should be okay to simply drape the plastic cover over the top of the pot and make sure the bottom is weighted and secure. You can also use a cloche or coldframe, if you have access to one. You'll know your bougainvillea cutting has taken root when small green leaves begin to form along the stem. In the meantime, avoid removing the bag or otherwise disturbing the plant. Doing so could inhibit the rooting process. In most cases, it's better to wait until numerous offshoots begin appearing along the stem than to risk uprooting it too early.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Fill a small container with a well-drained soil. Insert the cutting into the soil. Water the newly planted cutting thoroughly. Cover the potted cutting with a plastic bag. Look for the cutting to begin sprouting within 6-10 weeks.

Q: Fewer calories in equals more calories lost. More calories lost equals a smaller everything--including your bottom. Cutting calories with exercise may not be enough; you have to monitor your eating habits, too. 1 pound is 3,500 calories. If losing 10 lbs is your first goal, cutting 500 calories a day will equal the loss of 1 lb per week, 10 weeks in total. But don't forget: Exercise cuts out calories, too. So often carbs and fats are made into villains. However, there are good carbs and good fats that are very important to your diet; they give your body energy, maintain your metabolism and help your digestive system absorb vitamins. Avocados, olives, nuts, olive oil and salmon all have good unsaturated fats that will keep you satiated, which will keep you from overeating later. Whole-grain and whole-wheat breads, cereals and pasta, oatmeal, couscous, quinoa, and brown rice are good carbs that provide fiber, energy, and keep your insulin levels normal. Both of these food groups help you build muscle and are full of nutrition. Dairy and protein will also make it easier to get through your workouts. Eggs, turkey, chicken, fish, low-fat yogurts, milk, cheeses, and cottage cheese are all good options. If you opt for red meat, make sure it's lean.
A:
Cut calories. Eat the right carbs and fats. Get a healthy amount of dairy and protein.
