How to Be an Actress	[ "hWc1xG5UVUoi", "A3kRkYPM7Wl5", "1wRV1UBSJeVa" ]	[ "Join a theater group while you are in middle school or high school. If you are still in school, join the drama club. Look for announcements regarding drama club meetings, or ask your guidance counselor to help you connect with the correct faculty member to get you started. Then, attend all meetings and practices. This is a great way to learn fundamental acting skills and participate in your first plays or musicals.\nIn drama club, you can learn things like different methods of acting, writing your own material, trying out different characters, and stage/costume design.\nIn addition, consider majoring in theater or acting in college to continue your education. <img> Take an acting class or workshop outside of school. Look for small playhouses and theaters in your area, and research any workshops, classes, or training courses. Most communities have a local theater in the area, and many native actors offer ways to gain acting skills, such as summer workshops, personal lessons, or networking events. Make a selection based on what you want to learn, and sign up for the class online or in person.\nThis is a great idea if you want to take up acting but did not join a drama club in school.\n\nImprovisation classes are a good place to start. Improvisational acting trains you to pay attention to cues and respond quickly. You'll learn to naturally react to others' prompts and silence your inner critic.\nWhen you advance past basic acting classes, you can take specialized classes for film or stage acting, which require different skills. Experiment with both to figure out which suits you best. <img> Research famous actors and read plays and acting books. Acting has its own rich history, language, and terminology. To familiarize with the acting world, read history books and articles on acting, and look over the biographies of famous actors. In addition, read plays as a way to keep your passion going.\nFor example, familiarize yourself with the Shakespeare classics and the Globe Theater. <img> People-watch to learn about different expressions and behaviors. A great way to expand your acting knowledge is to observe the people in your daily life. Take a second to watch others while at a coffee shop, restaurant, or running errands. Quickly watch others to get a sense of their mannerisms, facial expressions, and body language. Then, use this knowledge when acting to deliver an authentic performance.\nFor example, you can watch a young child with a large ice cream cone. Pay attention to how their happiness is expressed across their face. Then, use these facial expressions when you act out a happy scene.\nBe careful not to stare or gawk at the person, as this will make them uncomfortable. <img> ", "Get professional headshots taken to use when applying to roles. A headshot is a photograph from the bust up used to help actors get auditions. Actors submit these along with their resume when applying to a certain position. Find a professional photographer, review their work, and explain that this is an acting headshot. When it’s time to take your picture, dress in neutral clothes and try a few different angles and poses.\nTypically, headshots are printed on standard 8.5 in × 11 in (22 cm × 28 cm) paper. Use the same size of paper for your resume. It looks more professional this way.\nIn addition, get electronic copies of your headshots. Some agencies may ask you to email your resume and headshots.\nYou want a professional, presentable photograph that displays your natural beauty. <img> Draft your resume to hand out with your headshots. When applying to auditions, you must submit a resume along with your headshots. Start your resume with your name, address, and contact information. Then, list your educational experiences, work experiences, and overall skills. Be sure to highlight any acting classes and workshops, and list all of the acting roles you’ve performed.\nIf you’ve received any acting awards, list them as well.\nAdjust your resume for the particular jobs you want. For example, if you want a lead acting role, show all of your strengths supporting why you should be the lead role. <img> Use acting websites to help find gigs and get your name out there. There are websites available to host your professional acting information, such as your headshot and resume. Try sites such as ReelAct.com, and create a profile to get started. Then, upload your documents, and browse work in your area.\nTo apply for a particular audition, click the “Apply now” link (or something similar).\nTo view the ReelAct website, visit http://www.thereelact.com/. <img> Sign up to be a movie extra as a way to get your feet wet. If you aren’t quite ready for an audition but want to get some acting experience, search online for local movie extra auditions. These are listed on large casting sites such as Backstage, or local advertising sites such as Craigslist. Search for extra roles based on your location, and send your resume and headshot to apply.\nThere are paid and volunteer movie extra positions. When you are first gaining experience, take any opportunity you can get!\nFor instance, visit https://www.backstage.com/. <img> Network with other actors, agents, and professionals to find auditions. As you expand your acting career, you will meet many other actors, actresses, directors, set designers, and the list goes on. A great actress stays up-to-date with their network and what’s happening around them. This way, you can easily get involved and find new roles to audition for!\nFor example, add all of your acting acquaintances on social media. Then, keep an eye on any upcoming casting calls or open auditions. <img> ", "Research the role so you understand the character and plot. Before the audition, research the particular character or role as much as you can. Read books or search online. This will help you get into character even before you start practicing lines.\nFor example, if you are trying out for Desdemona's role in Othello, look up who she was, what she did in the play, and the historical significance of her character. <img> Memorize your lines for the part you are auditioning for. Start memorizing your part as far in advance as you can. Memorize your lines or lyrics exactly as you will be performing them in the audition. Practice your lines over and over until you know it by heart.\nIf you are unfamiliar with a word, look it up and familiarize yourself.\nIf a part is particularly tricky, give yourself extra time to perfect it. <img> Practice sight reading so you are prepared for anything. Sight reading, or “cold reading,” is when you read material with little or no time to prepare in advance. During most acting auditions, you’ll be asked to cold read a piece, as well as deliver your own monologue. Practice auditioning with unfamiliar work to become comfortable with sight reading during your audition.\nFor example, find an unfamiliar play and practice acting out loud. <img> Dress comfortably yet professionally in neutral, flattering clothing. Wear something you will feel comfortable and confident in. However, don’t pick clothing that grabs lots of attention. Avoid dressing in costume since you’ll be styled to fit the part after you get it. You want to look professional and neutral so you can fit any role.\nAvoid wearing bulky jewelry or choosing loose clothing.\nWear shoes that are closed-toed, lightweight, and comfortable, like flats or sneakers. Do not wear flip-flops, as they look unprofessional. <img> Arrive at your audition early and be prepared when you get there. Before the audition, review the audition notice to make sure you know the audition guidelines. Then, show up to your audition at least 15 minutes early to show your initiative and time management. When you arrive, check in at the front desk, introduce yourself and the part you are auditioning for, and be ready to audition at any time. You never know the schedule the casting director is working with.\nBe prepared to answer questions about yourself and your schedule. For instance, the director may want to know what other roles you performed in or if you have specific training. They also may ask questions regarding how often you can practice and if you have any schedule disruptions.\nExpect to audition with the casting director, a cameraman, and a reader. There may be directors, producers, and associates in the room with you. Be prepared to audition in front of any number of people. <img> Act and speak with confidence in yourself. You’ve practiced the part, you’ve done the research, now it is time to show them what you can do! Act confidently as you arrive at the audition, and do the best you can. Speak with a self-assured tone when you introduce yourself and when you audition with the director.\nRemember, there will always be more auditions. If you don’t nail this one, it doesn't mean you aren’t a good actress. <img> Improvise if you forget your lines during the audition. Fake your lines if you forget them to show the director that you are flexible and adaptable. The director may not even notice. If they do, they likely will appreciate your creativity and ability to keep your performance going even under stress. <img> Be patient when waiting for a decision. In some cases, you'll hear a decision right away. However, directors live busy lives, so you could receive a call back in a few weeks or months. Don't worry if you don't get a call back immediately! It may take a bit before you hear a decision one way or another.\nIt is not common to contact the director or casting agent about the status of your audition. They will contact you or your agent when they have reached a decision.\nRemember, just because you didn't make the part doesn't mean you can't be an actress. Keep practicing, try a new class, and look for different roles! <img> Hire an agent to help you when you feel confident in your abilities. If you want to take your acting to the next level after you’ve acted in several parts, it is time to find an agent. These are professional networkers who keep up-to-date with upcoming performances and casting calls. To find an agent, search online or ask your network for recommendations. Then, agree on a set rate and draft a contract to reference in the future.\nA good talent agent is someone trustworthy, honest, and helpful. <img> " ]	[ [ "d699815a-9ce8-40dc-9741-8417833ca5a5", "b8350577-864a-424e-aeec-ca5634ea0205", "36ba815a-6223-4560-99d1-b831038c589a", "239c9f9c-43b2-4c0b-a8f4-1eccc63133d8" ], [ "c6fe1985-3194-41a1-89fb-f24bceb45175", "7b1eeebd-39e2-42d8-9ff6-a09671f7ca3b", "79026dff-1c2c-4eab-83c2-e128b1c0d156", "4415e05d-f7ba-4a71-a7e6-0a45e570729f", "4167432b-d3d8-4c3e-add2-76ebbbc6dbae" ], [ "6fb49747-3827-42f9-b437-097bf53ed55d", "fe179464-64c4-414b-8b1a-82875de0a364", "6157b7e9-f2a2-4e57-8c0a-a699bcd8b5dd", "87dff2de-1527-49f5-b712-457acf760dc6", "4a7d162f-5855-4660-906e-3e748bad0f62", "887b7e5a-2c8f-44c6-8e5c-7ada1bc2d284", "e7b63bd9-dc39-4988-b0dc-e419ad3ce4b0", "4c9325ea-7dbf-4232-b90f-b5345c60880a", "f7317f52-c169-46e5-bced-aff044fcf2bd" ] ]	[ [ "d699815a-9ce8-40dc-9741-8417833ca5a5.jpg", "b8350577-864a-424e-aeec-ca5634ea0205.jpg", "36ba815a-6223-4560-99d1-b831038c589a.jpg", "239c9f9c-43b2-4c0b-a8f4-1eccc63133d8.jpg" ], [ "c6fe1985-3194-41a1-89fb-f24bceb45175.jpg", "7b1eeebd-39e2-42d8-9ff6-a09671f7ca3b.jpg", "79026dff-1c2c-4eab-83c2-e128b1c0d156.jpg", "4415e05d-f7ba-4a71-a7e6-0a45e570729f.jpg", "4167432b-d3d8-4c3e-add2-76ebbbc6dbae.jpg" ], [ "6fb49747-3827-42f9-b437-097bf53ed55d.jpg", "fe179464-64c4-414b-8b1a-82875de0a364.jpg", "6157b7e9-f2a2-4e57-8c0a-a699bcd8b5dd.jpg", "87dff2de-1527-49f5-b712-457acf760dc6.jpg", "4a7d162f-5855-4660-906e-3e748bad0f62.jpg", "887b7e5a-2c8f-44c6-8e5c-7ada1bc2d284.jpg", "e7b63bd9-dc39-4988-b0dc-e419ad3ce4b0.jpg", "4c9325ea-7dbf-4232-b90f-b5345c60880a.jpg", "f7317f52-c169-46e5-bced-aff044fcf2bd.jpg" ] ]
How to Know if Your Quail Is Sick	[ "H1ipm9iDCctd", "zhr682KE7QBr", "7tz1x0FmJ1yy", "Z4DsMcPU7tJK", "3I1LY4DZ6wdw" ]	[ "Observe the enclosure for quarter of an hour. Quail that are healthy tend to move around a lot during the day. Quail that are weak or ill will conserve their energy and huddle into the corner of the pen. This is known as lethargy, and is a common symptom for a variety of health issues.\nLook for changes in your quails' behaviour, such as a decrease in appetite, isolation from the flock, or irritation. <img> Look for excessive panting. Panting that is accompanied with wings drawn out from the body is a sign of over exposure to heat. Whilst this does not mean that your quail is sick, overheating can lead to some detrimental health consequences. It's important to cool your quail down immediately if you spot these behavioural signs.\nPanting can also be due to dehydration. Ensure your quail have easy access to fresh cold water at all times during the day and night. <img> Listen for signs of coughing, sneezing or wheezing. Causes of these symptoms could be a bacterial infection in the upper respiratory tract, such as Bronchitis. Most breeds of quail, including Coturnix quail, are resistant to bronchitis. However, this respiratory issue is known to exhibit in Bobwhite quail. <img> Examine your quail for mites. Persistent itching, restlessness and feather loss is a common symptom for mites, but fortunately can easily be treated and is fairly common. <img> ", "Look for feather loss. Moulting and bald spots are general signs of stress or illness, or could be a result from an attack. On a contrary; certain breeds of quail will moult naturally twice a year, such as the Coturnix quail.\nFeather plucking is also provoked by birds that suffer from malnutrition or mites. For more information, visit our article How to Treat Feather Loss in Quail <img> Check for wounds, patches and abnormal lumps. Sores, wounds, scrapes or bumps are susceptible to infection if not medically treated. While these symptoms range from severity, they can generally be healed at home using antibacterial cream and a wound cleanser.\nVisit our wikiHow article How to Care for a Wounded Quail for more instructions on how to look after your quail. <img> Examine your quails' feathers. It's not abnormal for feathers to look dull in colour or lie differently when your bird is sick. Fluffed up feathers indicate that your quail is cold, and is conserving heat and energy due to illness. Ragged feathers are another symptom, as your quail may not have enough energy to preen themselves.\nQuail fluff up feathers naturally when they are asleep. This does not mean they are ill.\nFluffed up feathers is generally a response to a variety of health problems. <img> Study your quails' eyes and nostrils for mucous or discharge. Your quail's eyes should appear to be clear and clean around the eyelid area, as should their nostrils. If there is fluid coming from the eyes or nostrils, this could indicate an illness. Cloudy eyes are also another symptom of disease. <img> Observe your quail's movement. If your quail is moving abnormally from the rest of the flock, such as limping or struggling to walk, they may have an injured foot. Examine the bottom of your quail's foot for bumblefoot, or around the leg for any sprain, wound or blood. <img> ", "Pay attention to how much food your quail eats. Quail are ground-dwelling foragers, meaning that they need to eat constantly throughout the day as part of their dietary upkeep. Ensure that your quail is successfully eating both their pellets, and pecking at grit and bugs on the ground.\nIf your quail hangs back during feeding time, they could be ill. Refusal to eat or drink is a common symptom of disease. <img> Weigh your quail daily. While this may seem like a lot of work, a drastic decline in weight is one of the most obvious signs of health problems. Weigh your quail at the same time every day to avoid fluctuation due to meal times.\nIf your quail's weight suddenly drops by 10%, you should immediately organize a check up with your veterinarian.\nUse a scale that measures in grams, not kilograms, such as a kitchen scale. <img> Examine your quails' droppings. Quail droppings are brown in colour and quite firm. They may sometimes exhibit white streaks or light brown spots. Yellow and bright green droppings are abnormal, and could be a sign of a digestive issue. Runny droppings, or droppings that cause matting around the feathers of the quails cloaca are signs of diarrhea.\nDiarrhea is a common digestive issue involving coccidiosis, or malnutrition.\nBlood and mucous may be present in droppings of quail that have a bacterial infection. It's important to take your quail to a veterinarian as soon as possible if you spot such symptoms. <img> Monitor treats and table scraps that are fed to your quail. Some vegetables and human foods can cause digestive problems due to the amount of salt, sugar or acidity that they contain. For example, avocados and raw potatoes are toxic to many species of birds. Human foods such as chocolate, crisps, and candy are also unhealthy and can upset your quail's gut. While foods such as iceberg lettuce and watermelon aren't necessarily poisonous, they contain a lot of water and can cause diarrhea and bloating. <img> Notice if there is a decline in egg production. Your quail should be laying eggs 4-5 times a week. When ill, your quail may have trouble laying, or lay a misshapen egg. If you notice your quail has stopped laying eggs suddenly, she could possibly be egg bound. <img> ", "Book a consultation with an experienced avian vet. Like most birds, quail are notorious for hiding their symptoms until it is too late. This is so that they aren't detected as easy food for prey in the wild, or so that they aren't isolated from their flock. If you spot any symptoms that could be an underlying cause of a health issue, it's important to consult with a veterinarian as soon as possible. If you do not act fast, it could cost you your quails' life.\nA typical veterinarian consult or check up will cost around $30 US dollars, depending on where you are located. However, prices can range up to $60 US dollars, so it is important to have a vet fund available for such cases of an emergency. <img> Do not treat symptoms if you do not know the cause. Wounds, mites, malnutrition and dehydration are an exception. Any other illness, disease or health issue will require serious medical attention, and needs to be professionally diagnosed by a vet. <img> Purchase medication from a vet clinic or pet store. Many illnesses and infections will need treatment via medication. Some forms of medicine may be available at local pet stores, while others will need to be prescribed by your vet. Do not give your quail medication or antibiotics unless advised by a veterinarian. <img> Make an emergency protein mash for quail that refuse to eat. Soak game-bird pellets in lukewarm water and add cooked scrambled eggs with soaked finch seed. If you cannot obtain game-bird feed with 20% protein, you can purchase either chick starter with 20% protein, or a turkey mash that contains 24% - 26% protein. You will need to hand-feed your quail with a syringe if they are incapable of eating on their own.\nYou can purchase emergency food for quail or baby chicks from pet stores, livestock feed stores, or from a vet clinic.\nQuail require around 20% of protein in their regular game-bird feed. Do not be afraid to increase their protein intake when they are ill or struggling to consume food. <img> Transfer your quail to a temporary home. It's important that you separate any unwell or injured quail from the rest of the flock to prevent bullying or contamination. You will want to keep your quail close by so that you can monitor their behaviour and any changes in their health.\nA small cardboard box or shoe box lined with newspaper and an old white towel will be adequate. Their home does not need to be spacious, as your quail will only be staying there shortly. Ensure that the box has a lid to keep their home dark and quiet to lower stress levels in the environment. Place your quails' home in a quiet, yet warm, space in the house, such as your bedroom.\nPlace a heating pad set to a low temperature inside of the box to keep your quail warm. Otherwise you can use a hot water bottled wrapped around a towel. <img> Create a DIY first aid kit. Pack a small bag with antibiotics, antibacterial cream, bandages, wound cleanser and an emergency food kit for cases of an emergency. <img> ", "Organize a check-up with veterinarian once a year. Symptoms of illness, infection or injury can be quite hard to diagnose on your own. It can be difficult for families to know when their guinea pig is sick. This is why it's suggested to have your guinea pig checked annually by an experienced exotic vet. Additionally, they will be able to tell you if your guinea pig is overweight, underweight, receiving enough nutrients, or have an abscess or lump you may not know about. <img> Examine your quail daily. Changes in behaviour, weight or appearance can happen suddenly or overnight. While some veterinarians will advise to check your quail weekly, it's also suggested to examine your guinea pig day by day to catch any changes as soon as they happen. <img> Clean their cage frequently. Quail droppings are high in ammonia, and can cause respiratory issues, bumblefoot and unhygienic infections if not cleaned properly on a frequent basis. Spot clean every day, and deep clean every week as a minimum.\nMost farmers keep their quail in cages hung above-ground with wire flooring to allow waste to drop to the bottom and keep the base of the cage clean. While this saves you time and effort, you will have to keep the spacings in the wire quite small to ensure the comfort of your quail. <img> Switch to an absorbent bedding. It's important to use an absorbent yet comfortable bedding in your quails' enclosure for hygiene purposes. Line the floor of your enclosure with newspaper or puppy pads, and add wood shavings or paper bedding (shredded paper). Do not use cedar wood shavings, as these can cause respiratory issues. Aspen shavings are the safest to use on animals, as are kiln-dried pine shavings. <img> Clean the food and water bowls regularly. If you currently use water or food bowls, consider switching to a feeder or drinker, otherwise use nipple waterers. These will keep the water and food cleaner for longer, and prevent your quail from stepping or sleeping inside the bowl. Quail require fresh, clean water and food every day to prevent contamination of disease. <img> Quarantine new quail before adding to an existing flock. Birds purchased from foreign farms or markets have an increased risk of carrying disease. However, these symptoms may not be evident until at least a couple of weeks of housing your quail in solitary confinement. Do not introduce new birds to an existing flock until you are sure they are healthy and illness-free. Additionally, it is advised by breeders and farmers to incubate your own eggs to avoid risk of bacterial or parasitic contamination. <img> Add a natural antibiotic to your quails' water if advised by a vet. Citrocidal is a natural antibiotic made from grape seeds that can be added to the water to prevent respiratory difficulties such as coughing, sneezing, or rasping breathing. However, do not add anything to your quails water unless advised by a vet, as your quail may refuse to drink their water if they disfavour the taste. <img> " ]	[ [ "12489375-62ee-4b0e-b89b-8c5722f4c1eb", "8129564a-7aac-462c-a9b1-062f6a33421f", "906a2b71-2fcc-46a0-9fed-34941502bfa8", "2c47ee7a-4540-400a-8e69-1c1204022b7f" ], [ "ff369d7d-9019-4337-8403-c9a5a673875b", "a7b8cc49-541f-4dde-9a61-04473f663b61", "a080180f-6ccc-4726-9924-91a070e4a9f9", "1d8e03d7-bf57-4c8b-8c02-699906eb4610", "5c2a528e-f202-4b91-a387-4445d186ea8e" ], [ "aaf97187-c86c-44f0-9539-a859b3d3fd8c", "19af85b0-b339-49b4-9f43-dd81fc8bc772", "217d39da-c2e1-4324-866c-a733ab3a60f3", "dd46c787-d1d2-4e6f-aa9f-2cddad06c565", "363365c3-1021-4fb9-8b28-b4fe476a1079" ], [ "318ed57c-de01-4aed-ade3-fc9c8ccfd918", "463c2926-302a-4716-8db8-e29dcfcb66d6", "15ef2a48-3858-4291-85d1-e711650d9211", "dd89dadd-3941-4d30-88e2-675dadb1d6b5", "0f4c9884-ba94-453c-998e-12ede45016af", "e0cecf79-63b1-45ef-aa7f-34bf95a78fcd" ], [ "02eb33b2-5eb1-47a3-999b-7db7d6766748", "1810b305-e701-4dc7-927d-34f66781ff94", "7cfede40-08c8-4cad-bd29-70d17c53b3b6", "58f40975-fb49-4476-bb58-fc530e3cd217", "527c6c90-2bbd-40a2-8321-d0e710c808e2", "fcb0bbc2-c180-4a78-844a-a55c8090a52f", "24c3166e-2015-488d-aa40-020c7271ab7c" ] ]	[ [ "12489375-62ee-4b0e-b89b-8c5722f4c1eb.jpg", "8129564a-7aac-462c-a9b1-062f6a33421f.jpg", "906a2b71-2fcc-46a0-9fed-34941502bfa8.jpg", "2c47ee7a-4540-400a-8e69-1c1204022b7f.jpg" ], [ "ff369d7d-9019-4337-8403-c9a5a673875b.jpg", "a7b8cc49-541f-4dde-9a61-04473f663b61.jpg", "a080180f-6ccc-4726-9924-91a070e4a9f9.jpg", "1d8e03d7-bf57-4c8b-8c02-699906eb4610.jpg", "5c2a528e-f202-4b91-a387-4445d186ea8e.jpg" ], [ "aaf97187-c86c-44f0-9539-a859b3d3fd8c.jpg", "19af85b0-b339-49b4-9f43-dd81fc8bc772.jpg", "217d39da-c2e1-4324-866c-a733ab3a60f3.jpg", "dd46c787-d1d2-4e6f-aa9f-2cddad06c565.jpg", "363365c3-1021-4fb9-8b28-b4fe476a1079.jpg" ], [ "318ed57c-de01-4aed-ade3-fc9c8ccfd918.jpg", "463c2926-302a-4716-8db8-e29dcfcb66d6.jpg", "15ef2a48-3858-4291-85d1-e711650d9211.jpg", "dd89dadd-3941-4d30-88e2-675dadb1d6b5.jpg", "0f4c9884-ba94-453c-998e-12ede45016af.jpg", "e0cecf79-63b1-45ef-aa7f-34bf95a78fcd.jpg" ], [ "02eb33b2-5eb1-47a3-999b-7db7d6766748.jpg", "1810b305-e701-4dc7-927d-34f66781ff94.jpg", "7cfede40-08c8-4cad-bd29-70d17c53b3b6.jpg", "58f40975-fb49-4476-bb58-fc530e3cd217.jpg", "527c6c90-2bbd-40a2-8321-d0e710c808e2.jpg", "fcb0bbc2-c180-4a78-844a-a55c8090a52f.jpg", "24c3166e-2015-488d-aa40-020c7271ab7c.jpg" ] ]

How to Identify a Pedophile	[ "kkEgesSvoPU1", "jJA2ra2BUXMH" ]	[ "Understand that any adult could be a child molester. There is no one physical characteristic, appearance, profession, or personality type that all child molesters share. Child molesters can be any gender or race, and their religious affiliations, occupations and hobbies are as diverse as anyone else's. A child molester may appear to be charming, loving, and completely good-natured while harboring predatory thoughts that they are adept at hiding. That means you should never dismiss the idea that someone could be a child molester out of hand. <img> Know that most child molesters are known to the children they abuse. Thirty percent of children who have been sexually abused were abused by a family member, and 60 percent were abused by an adult they knew who was not a family member. That means only 10 percent of children who are sexually abused were targeted by a total stranger.\nIn most cases, the child molester turns out to be someone known to the child through school or another activity, such as a neighbor, teacher, coach, member of the clergy, music instructor, or babysitter.\nFamily members like mothers, fathers, grandmothers, grandfathers, aunts, uncles, cousins, stepparents, and so on may also be sexual predators. <img> Know the common characteristics of a child molester. While anyone can turn out to be a child molester, the majority of child molesters are men, regardless of whether their victims are men or women. Many sexual predators have a history of abuse in their own past, either physical or sexual.\nSome also have mental illness, such as a mood or personality disorder.\nHeterosexual and homosexual men are equally likely to be child molesters. The idea that homosexual men are more likely to be child molesters is a complete myth.\nWomen who are child molesters are more likely to abuse boys than girls. <img> Be aware of common behaviors demonstrated by child molesters. A child molester often doesn't display as much interest in adults as they do in children. They may have jobs that allow them to be around children of a certain age group, or contrive other ways to spend time with children by acting as a coach, babysitter or neighbor trying to help.\nChild molesters tend to talk about or treat children as though they are adults. They might refer to a child as they would refer to an adult friend or lover. \nChild molesters often say they love all children or feel as though they are still children. <img> Look for signs of grooming. The term \"grooming\" refers to the process the child molester undertakes to gain a child's trust, and sometimes the parents' trust as well. Over the course of months or even years, a child molester will increasingly become a trusted friend of the family, offering to babysit, take the child shopping or on trips, or spend time with the child in other ways. Many child molesters won't actually begin abusing a child until trust has been gained. Some may use others opinions around them to back up their trustworthiness in order to take children shopping.\nChild molesters look for children who are vulnerable to their tactics because they lack emotional support or aren't getting enough attention at home or will try to convince the parents their children are safe with them and that they are not going far. The child molester will attempt to step in as the \"parent\" figure for the child.\nSome child molesters prey on the children of single parents who aren't available to provide as much supervision or convince parents that they are nice enough people to supervise without them.\nA child molester will often use a range of games, tricks, activities and language to gain trust and/or deceive a child. These include: keeping of secrets (secrets are valuable to most kids, being seen as something \"adult\" and a source of power), sexually explicit games, fondling, kissing, touching, sexually suggestive behavior, exposing a child to pornographic material, coercion, bribery, flattery, and—worst of all—affection and love. Be aware that these tactics are ultimately used to isolate and confuse your child. <img> ", "Find out whether sex offenders live in your neighborhood. You can use the US Department of Justice National Sex Offender Database (located at http://www.nsopw.gov/en-US) to determine whether any registered sex offenders live in your area. All you have to do is enter your zip code and do a search, and you'll be able to see where child molesters might live.\nYou can also do a search for individual names to see if a specific person is a sex offender.\nIt's good to be aware of potential predators, but realize that it is illegal to take any kind of action against registered sex offenders. <img> Supervise your child's extracurricular activities. Being as involved as possible in your child's life is the best way to guard against child molesters. They will look for a child who is vulnerable and who isn't getting a lot of attention from their parents or will convince parents they are of no danger to their child. Show up at games, practices and rehearsals, chaperone field trips and trips out, and spend time getting to know the adults in your child's life. Make it clear that you're an involved, present parent.\nIf you can't be there for a trip or outing, make sure at least two adults you know well will be chaperoning a trip.\nDon't leave your child alone with adults you don't know well. Even relatives can pose a threat. The key is to be as present as possible. <img> Set up a nanny cam if you hire a babysitter. There are times when you won't be able to be present, so use other tools to make sure your child is safe. Set up a hidden camera in your home so that inappropriate activity will be detected. No matter how well you think you know someone, you need to take precautions for your child's safety. <img> Teach your child about staying safe online. Make sure your child knows that predators often pose as children or teenagers in order to lure children in online. Monitor your child's use of the internet, keeping rules in place to limit his or her \"chat\" time. Have regular discussions with your child about whom he or she is communicating with online.\nBe sure your child knows never to send pictures to a person they met online, or meet someone they are communicating with online.\nKnow that children are often secretive about online behavior, especially when encouraged by others to keep secrets, so you'll need to be vigilant about staying involved in your child's online activity. <img> Make sure your child is feeling emotionally supported. Since children who don't get a lot of attention are especially vulnerable to predators, make sure you are spending a lot of time with your child and that he or she feels supported. Take the time to talk to your child every day and work toward building an open, trusting relationship.\nChild molesters will ask the children to keep it secret from their parents.\nEnsure your children understands that if someone has asked them to keep a secret from you that it isn't because the child will get into trouble but the person who has asked them to keep the secret knows what they are doing to them is wrong.\nExpress interest in all of your child's activities, including schoolwork, extracurriculars, hobbies, and other interests.\nLet your child know that they can tell you anything, and that you're always willing to talk. Reassure them that they won't get in trouble if they talk to you about something that made them uncomfortable or something they found unusual. <img> Teach your child to recognize inappropriate touching. Many parents use the \"good touch, bad touch, secret touch\" method. It involves teaching your child that there are some appropriate touches, like pats on the back or high fives; there are some unwelcome or \"bad' touches, like hits or kicks; and there are also secret touches, which are touches that the child is told to keep a secret. Use this method or another one to teach your child that some touches aren't good, and when these happen, he or she should tell you immediately.\nTeach your child that no one is allowed to touch them in private areas. Many parents define private areas as those that would be covered by a bathing suit. Children also need to know an adult should not ask a child to touch anyone else's private areas or their own.\nTell your child to say \"no\" and walk away if someone tries to touch them in a private area.\nTell your child to come to you immediately if someone touches them the wrong way.\nTeach your child that not only their private parts, but their entire body should be respected at all times. Teach them that it is okay to say \"no\" to things they are uncomfortable with and to immediately get away from anyone who won't respect their boundaries. <img> Recognize when something is out of sync with your child. If you notice your child is acting differently, pursue the issue to find out what is wrong. Regularly asking your child questions about their day, including asking whether any \"good,\" \"bad,\" or \"secret\" touches happened that day, will help open the lines of communication. Never dismiss it if your child tells you they were touched inappropriately or don't trust an adult. Trust your child first.\nNever dismiss a child's claims because the adult in question is a valued member of society or appears incapable of such things. That's exactly what a child molester wants.\nRemember that the most important thing you can do to protect your child is to pay attention to them. Assess their needs and desires, talk to them, and in essence, just be the best parent you possibly can. Bottom line to remember: If you don't pay attention to your child, someone else will.\nRemember that kids around 12, should already have gotten sex education by their parents and told what everything means/is called. This will prevent a teacher/friend who is a child molester from taking the lead and teaching whole other aspects. Make sure your child already knows everything it needs to know, before it gets taught very different meanings of words or gets told that kissing/licking the teachers cheek is totally fine.\nIf the child is very young or younger than 14, they might not recognize that there's a difference between a grumpy teacher giving extra homework, or a strange acting teacher that wants them to kiss the cheek before leaving the room. Both to them are 'annoying.' So make sure whenever your child tells you vague stories about the teacher making sex-jokes or touching them, or being 'annoying' and asking all kinds of 'private stuff' that there might be something going on.\nAs soon as the child mentions the teacher is acting strange or is asking private info/pictures/things about siblings, you have to tell your child how to react to this. Be realistic in the approach! Telling your kids to scream loudly when the teacher touches their shoulder, or hit their hand and yell whenever they'd touch their back, won't help. They won't hit a teacher, especially not when they're being groomed and told they're only trying to help. Make sure they will tell them clearly that they have told their parents about what happened and they weren't happy with it. Or give the child an envelope, containing a letter that says; 'Stop touching my child' and your signature. Make sure they give it to them when they are touching a bad part of their body and didn't stop when they said stop. (Make sure you think about this, it'll only have a positive effect if you're absolutely sure he'll be ignoring the boundaries and is actually going too far. One impulsive hand on the shoulder isn't. <img> " ]	[ [ "1acf90a8-65c7-40e0-8c11-a1e1e797c681", "d1c04809-9f47-4046-b32c-7354a931bf30", "90814463-9b41-4443-a960-8ff50252a1ea", "1dcd84be-3a42-4340-8cf3-89f8c0c300c0", "a327d260-6f26-437d-af71-af1714c8a70c" ], [ "15af7396-d398-4726-9795-cdbf5d18cfab", "2ae0cfc0-1cec-4e1c-835b-83148665dc01", "5df4e325-af2c-4bfd-bfa2-1892f1f38f44", "a7d2cd0d-1a56-4981-bd9a-6d5c4b0aad6a", "ddaab5a2-6923-4100-9b65-6a764d93420c", "37266739-2764-4c3e-99bd-dd4546d574c8", "2c5cc979-ad90-421d-b7ed-2d7b3feba1ca" ] ]	[ [ "1acf90a8-65c7-40e0-8c11-a1e1e797c681.jpg", "d1c04809-9f47-4046-b32c-7354a931bf30.jpg", "90814463-9b41-4443-a960-8ff50252a1ea.jpg", "1dcd84be-3a42-4340-8cf3-89f8c0c300c0.jpg", "a327d260-6f26-437d-af71-af1714c8a70c.jpg" ], [ "15af7396-d398-4726-9795-cdbf5d18cfab.jpg", "2ae0cfc0-1cec-4e1c-835b-83148665dc01.jpg", "5df4e325-af2c-4bfd-bfa2-1892f1f38f44.jpg", "a7d2cd0d-1a56-4981-bd9a-6d5c4b0aad6a.jpg", "ddaab5a2-6923-4100-9b65-6a764d93420c.jpg", "37266739-2764-4c3e-99bd-dd4546d574c8.jpg", "2c5cc979-ad90-421d-b7ed-2d7b3feba1ca.jpg" ] ]
How to Say Bye in Japanese	[ "szvqAFvqMXCt", "kteRZplqIvII", "EgcQWvxaR1yR", "oCK0aMvTm5Fd", "GxF7IJR7V9Ju", "DxWBSzgX2rJF", "5CDh4xUiGYmE", "7waHuGDKDFLU", "8WahRhrQxQ9x", "3eNgzQ3VI6rG", "PN0IW9yY6tdX", "MYZIBeOZlQzN", "42yP337pUYUy", "wTswMk4eKh2q" ]	[ "Use “jaa ne” to say “bye” to your friends and loved ones. Think of “jaa ne” as a quick “Bye!” or “See ya!” you’d offer a friend or close family member before going your separate ways for the day. It’s a pretty casual way of saying “bye,” so you wouldn’t use it when saying goodbye to an authority figure, like your boss.\nYou can also casually say “bye” to friends with “じゃあ、また” (jaa, mata) or “またね” (mata ne).\nじゃあね (jaa ne), じゃあ、また (jaa, mata), and またね” (mata ne) all essentially mean the same thing. <img> ", "Use “mata ashita” if you plan on seeing someone the next day. “明日” (ashita) directly translates to “tomorrow,” which makes “mata ashita” the perfect thing to say to a friend or co-worker that you plan on bumping into the next day.\nThis is a pretty informal phrase, so you shouldn’t use it when saying “bye” to an authority figure.\n\nCo-worker: “またね!” (mata ne)You: “また明日!” (mata ashita) <img> ", "Keep things casual and cute with “bai bai.” “Bai bai” is the Japanese variation of the English word “bye.” Since it’s such a laid-back saying, most people only say it to their close friends.\nIn Japan, “bai bai” is considered a really cutesy and feminine way to say goodbye, so guys usually don’t say it.\n\nFriend: “じゃあね!” (jaa ne)You: “バイバイ!” (bai bai) <img> ", "Say a quick “ittekimasu” before you head out for the day. In Japan, people always say “ittekimasu” to the other members of their household before leaving. It literally translates to “I’ll be going now” or “I’m leaving home,” but it carries the same weight as “bye.” In response, another member of the household will say “行ってらっしゃい” (itterasshai), which means “see you later.”\n\nYou: “行って来ます!” (ittekimasu)Parent/Guardian: “行ってらっしゃい!” (itterasshai) <img> ", "Wish someone a good time with “tanoshinde ne.” Maybe your brother is about to head out to the beach, or your friend is heading to a fun party. Before you split up and they head off, say “tanoshinde ne” as a way to both say “bye” and “enjoy your day.”\n“Tanoshinde ne” is a pretty casual phrase, and is best used with friends, loved ones, and other people you know well.\n\nFriend: “じゃあ、また!” (jaa, mata)You: “楽しんでね!” (tanoshinde ne) <img> ", "Use “oyasumi nasai” when you’re parting ways at night. “おやすみなさい”(oyasumi nasai) literally translates to “good night,” and is a great way to wish someone well before heading home in the evening. If you’re really friendly with the person you’re speaking to, you can say “おやすみ” (oyasumi) rather than “おやすみなさい” (oyasumi nasai).\n\nFriend: “またね!” (mata ne)You: “おやすみ!” (oyasumi) <img> ", "Make a polite exit with “osaki ni shitsurei shimasu.” “お先に失礼します” (osaki ni shitsurei shimasu) means “I’m heading out before you.” It’s a polite way of saying “bye” as you excuse yourself, and also means “See you tomorrow!”\nIf you were heading out from work before your supervisor, you could say “お先に失礼します” (osaki ni shituserei shimasu) to be polite. <img> ", "Say goodbye to your coworkers with “otsukaresama deshita.” “お疲れ様でした” officially translates to “You must be tired,” but people use this phrase to mean “Thank you for your hard work.” Co-workers typically say this to each other as a way of saying “bye” when they leave for the day.\n“お疲れ様でした” (otsukaresama deshita) is the formal version of this phrase, while “お疲れ様” (otsukaresama) is the informal version. If you’re pretty tight with the co-workers you’re saying “bye” to, feel free to just say “お疲れ様” (otsukaresama). <img> ", "Say “ojama shimashita” before leaving someone’s home. You just spent the afternoon at a friend’s home and you’re getting ready to head out. “お邪魔しました” (ojama shimashita) means “thank you for having me,” and is a polite way to say “bye” before you leave. <img> ", "Use “kyou arigatou” to say “thanks for today.” “今日” (kyou) translates to “today,” and “ありがとう” translates to “thank you.” You’d say this before heading home after spending a fun day with someone.\nIf you and your friend spent the day at an amusement park, you’d say “今日ありがとう” (kyou arigatou) before returning home. <img> ", "Wish a sick friend well with “odaiji ni.” Maybe you drop some food off at your sister’s home when she’s feeling under the weather, or you call to check up on a friend who caught a cold. Before leaving or hanging up, you’d say “お大事に” (odaiji ni) as a hybrid of “goodbye” and “get well soon.” <img> ", "Say “genki de” if you might not see the other person for a little while. “元気で” (genki de) translates to “all the best” or “take care.” It’s a good way to say “bye” to someone that you might not see for a little bit, like a friend heading on month-long trip or a sibling studying abroad.\nThis is a good thing to say to your loved ones, friends, and co-workers. <img> ", "Wish someone well on a trip with “ki wo tsukete.” “気をつけて” (ki wo tsukete) basically translates to “be careful,” and is a nice way to say “bye” to someone before they travel somewhere. It’s typically said to the person leaving, not to whoever is staying put.\nFor example, you’d say “ “気をつけて” (ki wo tsukete)” to a friend going on a month-long trip abroad, but you wouldn’t say it to a friend after hanging out with them for the afternoon.\nTo make this phrase a little more formal, say “気をつけてください” (ki wo tsukete kudasai). <img> ", "Use “sayounara” if you don’t know when you’ll see the person again. Although “さようなら” (sayounara) does translate to mean “goodbye,” it doesn’t have the same casual, light-hearted connotation that the English “bye” or “goodbye” has. In Japanese, “さようなら” implies that you won’t be seeing the person for a very long time, so it shouldn’t be used often.\nThere’s a lot of misinformation out there about “さようなら” (sayounara) being the standard goodbye greeting. This definitely isn’t true—in fact, you’ll probably get some strange looks if you say “sayounara” to a native Japanese speaker. <img> " ]	[ [ "e2bedc9a-d1f1-4552-bfed-6b6a2902159a" ], [ "91346071-c01c-45a4-8214-29dea571db8a" ], [ "16d5a728-1b5a-4376-ba16-234c5846eeb9" ], [ "075b59a2-abc9-4cd9-bb5d-915d9079d5c1" ], [ "e0c84a5f-550a-43ab-94f4-79118481fc9d" ], [ "5b72d5a5-386a-43fd-b149-818a1ad077a8" ], [ "d2f636f4-3d1a-4ac5-91fd-131a3372cf37" ], [ "5f0a64ac-55e7-4e2a-9c76-d6690eeea710" ], [ "424bf30d-4da0-4b6a-a92f-276be2504c4e" ], [ "dbd4f93d-a766-4909-b7f2-e2a595ad0e9d" ], [ "e4c2056f-b235-4510-adae-851e9e92663c" ], [ "04509157-ea54-4fd9-b9fa-669f9e688b61" ], [ "dd44f2d1-f1cf-4b61-9ab5-70549d07f8f3" ], [ "6a9963fc-50ef-4926-89c2-9df25068c288" ] ]	[ [ "e2bedc9a-d1f1-4552-bfed-6b6a2902159a.jpg" ], [ "91346071-c01c-45a4-8214-29dea571db8a.jpg" ], [ "16d5a728-1b5a-4376-ba16-234c5846eeb9.jpg" ], [ "075b59a2-abc9-4cd9-bb5d-915d9079d5c1.jpg" ], [ "e0c84a5f-550a-43ab-94f4-79118481fc9d.jpg" ], [ "5b72d5a5-386a-43fd-b149-818a1ad077a8.jpg" ], [ "d2f636f4-3d1a-4ac5-91fd-131a3372cf37.jpg" ], [ "5f0a64ac-55e7-4e2a-9c76-d6690eeea710.jpg" ], [ "424bf30d-4da0-4b6a-a92f-276be2504c4e.jpg" ], [ "dbd4f93d-a766-4909-b7f2-e2a595ad0e9d.jpg" ], [ "e4c2056f-b235-4510-adae-851e9e92663c.jpg" ], [ "04509157-ea54-4fd9-b9fa-669f9e688b61.jpg" ], [ "dd44f2d1-f1cf-4b61-9ab5-70549d07f8f3.jpg" ], [ "6a9963fc-50ef-4926-89c2-9df25068c288.jpg" ] ]
How to Move with a Cat	[ "zX5sgFNVzA98", "Mhy1wojJjfX1", "VLAq4dXKurci" ]	[ "Check your cat’s ID tag. Although you will do your best to prevent your cat from getting spooked and running away during the moving process, she may still find a way to bolt. Proper identification will be very useful if someone finds her. Make sure that her ID tag has your mobile number on it, since your landline number will change after the move.\nIf your cat is not already microchipped, take her to the veterinarian to have that done. A microchip is a small device that is implanted just under the skin. If someone finds your cat, they can take her to a veterinarian’s office or animal shelter that can scan the microchip and identify you as her owner.\nPreparing ‘lost cat’ flyers is also useful. These flyers should contain a picture of your cat, your cat’s profile, the addresses of your veterinary clinic and local animal shelters, and your contact information. If your cat does run away, having the flyers already prepared will allow you to quickly start posting them in the area. <img> Take your cat to the veterinarian. Ensure that your cat is up to date on vaccinations and parasite control. Moving is a stressful process for your cat, so you will want to make sure that she is as healthy as possible. Your veterinarian can administer any necessary vaccinations and provide you with more parasite control.\nWhile you are at the veterinarian's office, ask for a copy of your cat’s medical records. This is especially important if you will need to switch veterinary offices after you move. Having a copy of your cat’s medical records will make it easier for the new veterinarian to know your cat’s full medical history.\nTalk with your veterinarian about anti-anxiety medication. Depending on your cat’s temperament, she may need medication to reduce her anxiety during the move. Your veterinarian can discuss what medications are available and how you should administer them, if necessary. <img> Find a pet-friendly hotel. If you are traveling cross-country with your cat, you will probably need to spend the night at a hotel. Finding a hotel that accepts cats may be challenging, though, since not all pet-friendly hotels accept cats. Even if the hotel accepts cats, it may not have pet-friendly rooms available when you are moving. In addition, pet-friendly hotels could charge you an expensive convenience fee.\nWhen you arrive at the hotel room, cat-proof the room as much as you can before letting your cat out of her carrier. The room will be unfamiliar to her, and she could easily find a place to hide or crawl under (under or behind the bed, under a chair).\nIt may be best to keep your cat in your hotel room's bathroom, and set up the room as you did when you moved out of your old home. Leave her carrier in the bathroom with her. <img> Get your cat comfortable with her carrier. Start getting your cat comfortable with her carrier several weeks prior to the move. You can use either a hard-top or soft-top carrier. The hard-top carrier is more sturdy, but you may need the soft-top carrier if you are flying to your new destination and plan to carry her with you on the plane.\nMake the carrier look inviting by leaving its door open and placing her bed and some treats inside.\nEncourage her to spend time in the crate by feeding her meals in the crate.\nPlace a blanket over the carrier to make it look like a safe hideaway to your cat, which will be helpful on moving day.\nReward her with a treat each time that she goes in the crate. Doing this creates a positive association with the crate.\nRide with her when she is in the carrier. Start with placing her in the car with you without driving. When you see that she can remain calm in the car when it's not moving, take her on short drives, then longer drives. Reward her with treats each time that she stays calm in her crate while she’s in the car with you. <img> Get your cat comfortable with the moving boxes. The sight of moving boxes may be enough to make your cat very anxious. In the weeks before the move, set out some empty moving boxes for her to explore and get comfortable with. If she seems extra wary of the boxes, try spraying some cat pheromones (available at your local pet store) on the corners of the boxes; the scent of these pheromones should encourage her to explore the boxes.\nGiving her time to explore the boxes can end up being play time for her, which will help reduce her anxiety with the move. <img> Keep your cat’s routine consistent. Preparing to move means that you will be busy packing boxes and running errands. Even with these changes in your schedule, make sure that you keep your cat’s routine as consistent as you can to reduce her anxiety with the move. For example, continue to feed and play with her at the same time each day.\nIf you see that she is getting increasingly anxious even with a consistent routine, you could try to increase your play time with her. <img> ", "Set up a cat-safe room. On moving day, people will constantly be moving from room to room and going in and out of the door. This level of commotion will make your cat extremely anxious. Keeping her in a separate room will protect her from the commotion. To make the room comfortable for her, put her food bowl, water bowl, litter box, toys, and bed in the room.\nPlace her in the room before you start the actual process of moving. Once she is comfortably settled in the room, place a sign on the door advising people to keep the door closed.\nThe bathroom is a good place to put her, since people will not need to go in and out of the bathroom.\nYou may also want to put her carrier in the cat-safe room, since she will have become comfortable with it at this point.\nIf you are not moving far away, you may want to consider boarding her for the day of the move. Discuss this option with your veterinarian. <img> Feed your cat a small breakfast. Your cat will probably be anxious on moving day and may not want to eat. Even if this is the case, offer a small amount of food at her usual feeding time so that her stomach doesn’t get upset later in the day. <img> Place her in her carrier. You can do this either when she is in the cat-safe room or when you prepare to put her in the car. Make sure that you keep the carrier door closed until you are in a closed room inside your new home. Although it may be tempting to open the carrier door beforehand to soothe her, her fear and anxiety may cause her to bolt. <img> ", "Set up a cat-safe room in your new home. Do this before you begin unloading and unpacking your things. Prepare this room like you did before, but also place her scratching post in the room with her. Open the carrier door and scatter some treats throughout the room to encourage her to come out of her carrier and explore the room.\nEven after the hustle and bustle of moving day is over, keep her in the cat-safe room for a few extra days. It will probably take those extra days for her to calm down and feel more comfortable in her new environment.\nSpend some extra time with her in the room. You can play and interact with her, but also do quiet activities in the room, such as reading. <img> ‘Cat-proof’ your new home. While your cat is in the cat-safe room, make sure that the rest of the home will be safe for your cat to explore and acclimate to. Make sure that there are no pest traps, since these traps contain pesticides that are toxic. Hide electrical cords, ensure that the window screens are secure, and cover any nooks where you cat may hide and get stuck.\nSet up multiple litter boxes throughout your home, especially if your new home has multiple levels.\nPlace her scent around the house. To do this, put a clean sock on your hand and gently rub the sock against her cheek to get her pheromones. Rub the sock against the corners of furniture at her eye level. Do this several times before you let her out of the cat-safe room. When she comes out, she’ll recognize her scent as if she’s already marked her new territory. <img> Place scratching posts and toys in multiple places. Your cat may be tempted to mark her territory in your new home. Having familiar scratching posts and her favorite toys throughout the home will encourage her to scratch and play with what's familiar to her and not find new areas to scratch or mark. <img> Establish a regular eating schedule. Your cat may feel too anxious to eat much while she's getting used to her new environment. Even if she may not feel like eating, feeding her small and frequent meals on a regular schedule will help her feel some sense of normalcy and routine in the new home. In addition, the frequency of meals will increase the amount of time that you spend with her, which will also help reduce her anxiety.\nFeed her these meals in the cat-safe room.\nEstablishing regular schedules for playing and sleeping will also her acclimate to her new home. <img> Let your cat out of the cat-safe room. Give her plenty of time and space to explore her new environment. Even after a few days, she may still be anxious, so let her get comfortable at her own pace. Offer her treats as she explores and give her access to some of her favorite toys.\nOffer her hiding or resting places, such as cat tunnels, where she can go while she is exploring.\nIt may be helpful to introduce her to one room at a time, rather than having her explore the entire house at once.\nKeep a litter box in the cat-safe room until your cat becomes acclimated to the entire home. That room will still be her sanctuary for a while, so allow her to continue using the litter box in that room for several weeks. <img> Keep your cat indoors for a few weeks. This is important if your cat was indoor/outdoor or fully outdoors. The outdoor environment will be just unfamiliar as the inside of your new home, so letting her out too soon may cause her to run away. If you would like to let her outside, consider putting a cat leash on her, which you can find at your local pet store.\nYou can also purchase a cat-safe enclosure for your cat to be in while she is outside, which will protect her from predators.\nIt may be helpful to scatter some of your cat's used litter around your house before you let her outside. This will help your cat feel like she's in a familiar area when she's outside and will let other neighborhood cats know that there is a new cat. <img> " ]	[ [ "c07d28bb-8bd3-42cc-8bed-c76660851e42", "d3e51b94-667b-415c-af2b-d4db68d4b71e", "5ef7df81-6ac2-49f3-b4eb-a8cf20af2507", "7ab8fa7e-9f3c-4f66-91ab-73f01cab34af", "17712cfd-3d52-4fa9-9194-c4c70020d417", "685118fa-0060-49f9-9952-56c9fad88db8" ], [ "edba9998-d3f3-4c88-a6b0-46b1ad9e8e8e", "07245329-a43d-4846-9977-350e9e1a1eff", "0b86f28f-fc2f-4f9b-922a-77b8853a7a63" ], [ "758fe977-89f9-4975-b6f4-193ec0101003", "eb396b35-979d-4824-b29a-8ab14874e8c9", "acc5d922-e422-469d-b643-8c152c1fd2e2", "a3477063-8815-4abf-9eac-fa913014307d", "2e7d6519-9677-49c2-b42e-ca64c1d2be1d", "ff806aa8-49b9-41a8-9e25-d34dfa4efeb0" ] ]	[ [ "c07d28bb-8bd3-42cc-8bed-c76660851e42.jpg", "d3e51b94-667b-415c-af2b-d4db68d4b71e.jpg", "5ef7df81-6ac2-49f3-b4eb-a8cf20af2507.jpg", "7ab8fa7e-9f3c-4f66-91ab-73f01cab34af.jpg", "17712cfd-3d52-4fa9-9194-c4c70020d417.jpg", "685118fa-0060-49f9-9952-56c9fad88db8.jpg" ], [ "edba9998-d3f3-4c88-a6b0-46b1ad9e8e8e.jpg", "07245329-a43d-4846-9977-350e9e1a1eff.jpg", "0b86f28f-fc2f-4f9b-922a-77b8853a7a63.jpg" ], [ "758fe977-89f9-4975-b6f4-193ec0101003.jpg", "eb396b35-979d-4824-b29a-8ab14874e8c9.jpg", "acc5d922-e422-469d-b643-8c152c1fd2e2.jpg", "a3477063-8815-4abf-9eac-fa913014307d.jpg", "2e7d6519-9677-49c2-b42e-ca64c1d2be1d.jpg", "ff806aa8-49b9-41a8-9e25-d34dfa4efeb0.jpg" ] ]
How to Paint Pine Furniture	[ "bMEy7zOSA822", "4eGIUXfEiqvD", "swcMJtVkkXo0" ]	[ "Set out a drop cloth or take your furniture outside. You’re going to make a little bit of a mess while sanding your wood and you don’t want any paint dripping on to your floor, so set out a large drop cloth underneath your furniture. If you’re painting a smaller item, feel free to take it outside so that you don’t need to worry about making a mess in your home.\nIf you paint your furniture outside on a windy day, you could end up with a lot of small pieces of dust, grass, or debris getting stuck in your paint. A windy day is excellent for sanding though. <img> Clean your furniture with a damp cloth. Run a clean cloth or rag under warm water and wring it out over a sink or bucket to remove the excess water. Run the rag or cloth over every surface of your furniture to remove any dirt, debris, or splinters. Let the furniture air dry for at least 30-45 minutes.\nIf your pine is unfinished, wait 2-3 hours to give the moisture time to evaporate.\nYou don’t need to scrub your furniture—it shouldn’t be soaking wet by the time that you’re done. <img> Sand your pine with 120-150 grit sandpaper. Purchase a sanding brick or attach a sheet of 120-150 grit sandpaper to a belt sander. Run your sandpaper firmly across every surface of your furniture to pull up the porous wood, remove debris and splinters, and make it easier to paint. If you’re using a belt sander, guide it carefully over the furniture. If you’re using a sanding brick, use light back-and-forth strokes. Work in the direction of the grain.Tip: If you’re painting finished furniture, don’t worry about removing the paint. The goal is to soften the wood and expose the pores, not remove paint.\n\nUnless you want a spongy, distressed look, you need to sand your furniture regardless of whether it is finished or unfinished.\nStop after you’ve run the sandpaper over every section of the wood.\nWear protective eyewear and gloves while doing this to prevent damaging your eyes or hands. Put on a dust mask before sanding to keep your lungs safe. <img> Sand again using 200-220 grit sandpaper. Use the same method that you used to sand your furniture the first time to ensure that your wood grain remains uniform. Sand your furniture lightly with your brick or sander to remove smaller blemishes and smooth out minor scratches. Sanding twice will make it easier for the primer to bind with the wood, which will make the paint more uniform and permanent when you apply it.\nThe finer sandpaper will also remove any wood dust that is sticking to your furniture after using the rougher sandpaper.\nYou can stop sanding after you’ve run the sandpaper over each section of the furniture.\nSanding with the finer paper will remove hard-to-see splinters and minor imperfections. <img> Brush your furniture with a dry, clean paint brush. Wipe off the remaining wood dust and splinters by brushing your furniture with a standard paint brush that has never been used. Brush freely and firmly to wipe all of the debris on to the ground or drop cloth.\nYou can wipe your furniture with a dry cloth or rag if you prefer. <img> ", "Tape off any handles or details that you want to stay dry. Use painter’s tape to cover any sections that you want to paint a different color or leave blank. Place a piece of painter’s tape against the edge that you’re going to leave unpainted and press it down as you roll the tape along the edge. Press down on a strip of painter’s tape to ensure that the adhesive is smoothed out against the wood.\nIf you have metal handles or leg covers, they can usually be removed with a screwdriver.\nPaint can bleed through the edge of painter’s tape. Use it as a guide, not a perfect safety measure. <img> Remove any drawers or shelves to make painting easier. If you’re painting a dresser, end table, or armoire, remove the drawers or shelves so that you don’t need to worry about paint dripping in between spaces in the wood. It is easier to paint these removable pieces separately, and removing them will prevent you from missing hard-to-reach areas between gaps.\nYou don’t need to prime, sand, or paint the areas that aren’t going to be visible.\nYou can paint and prime drawers and shelves on a set of saw horses or separate section of your drop cloth. <img> Fill a paint tray with a stain-blocking primer. Unscrew or pry the lid off of your primer and fill a paint tray with ⁄2–⁄4 gallon (1.9–2.8 L). If you plan on using latex paint, use a latex primer. If you’re going to use an alkyd or oil-based paint, use a primer that uses the same base as the paint. Read a label before purchasing a primer to make sure that it is stain-blocking for the best results.Warning: Pine is a tannin-rich wood, which means that it can resist paint fairly well. Because pine is so strong, you absolutely cannot skip the priming process. Your paint job will not be uniform or clean if you don’t prime your wood.\n\nWear a respirator or dust mask if you’re working with oil-based primer. The fumes are a lung irritant.\nOpen a window before pouring your primer if you’re working indoors. Even nontoxic latex primers can smell obnoxious in a closed room. <img> Roll larger surface areas with a thin-napped mini-roller. Use a 6 in (15 cm) foam roller to cover larger surfaces of your furniture. Submerge your roller in the paint and then roll it 2-3 times in the tray to remove excess paint. Use light pressure to roll up and down across the flat surfaces. Roll 2-3 times over an area to ensure that you get primer on every section of your furniture. A medium-sized dresser should require roughly 0.5 gallons (1.9 L) of paint.\nIt can be really hard to remove oil-based primer from a roller. You may be better off not wasting your time trying to clean it and toss it out. You can also wrap it in a plastic bag to keep it wet if you want to apply multiple layers.\nFor rougher pine, use a thick-napped roller instead.\nYou can use a larger roller if your furniture is larger. <img> Brush intricate details, curves, and smaller surfaces with a natural brush. Use an angled or flat brush with natural bristles to paint details, curves, or hard-to-reach areas of your furniture. Use back-and-forth strokes to cover each area of your furniture. Paint in the direction of the wood grain whenever possible.\nLeave no visible surface unprimed. It’s okay if the coat of primer isn’t perfectly even in color—especially if you’re using a gloss paint—but every surface should be primed.\nUse your brush to work around any handles or edges of painter’s tape.\nAvoid drips by brushing with light pressure and allowing your brush to move in your wrist as you paint. <img> Wait 12-24 hours for your primer to dry. If you paint your pine furniture before the primer has a chance to fully dry into the wood, you’ll end up with an uneven paint job and an unprotected piece of furniture. Let your furniture air dry in a low-moisture environment with plenty of access to air. <img> ", "Choose a color and style of paint. Select your color based on your personal preferences. Choose between a gloss, semi-gloss, or flat paint. You can use oil-based, alkyd or latex paint. If you’re painting a furniture item that you touch frequently, like a dresser or table, choose an alkyd-based paint. Latex paint will rub off more easily over time, especially if the furniture is being used regularly. For decorative pieces, latex will hold up just fine.\nIf you’re painting kitchen or bathroom cabinets, use an oil-based paint. It will resist moisture more efficiently than an alkyd or latex paint.\nIf you want a distressed look and you use the furniture regularly, go ahead and use a latex paint. It will wear away and reveal the grain underneath over time. <img> Fill a paint tray with ⁄2–⁄4 gallon (1.9–2.8 L) of paint. Open your can of paint with a flathead screwdriver by prying the lid off with the screwdriver’s head. Use a mixing stick to mix the paint until the color is uniform and even. Use both hands to hold the can over your paint tray and tilt it so that the paint pours into the tray. Use your brush to wipe the drips on the paint can away.\nDo this over your drop cloth or while you’re outside. Paint can drip down the side of the canister, so be careful. <img> Paint angles, curves, or rough edges with a natural angle brush. Dip the tip of your brush into your paint tray and then tap it on the dry slope to remove excess paint. Use back-and-forth strokes to cover any angles, curves, edges, or hard-to-reach areas with paint. Run your brush over an area 3-4 times to ensure that the paint gets into the wood grain.\nYou can use a brush to paint the entire piece of furniture if you’d like. A roller will be easier to use and will result in more a more consistent look when it comes to larger, flat surfaces though.\nDepending on the size of your furniture, you can use a ⁄4–3 in (1.9–7.6 cm) brush. <img> Roll larger surfaces with a 6 in (15 cm) roller. Use a foam roller if you’re painting unfinished pine. If you’re painted previously-finished wood, use a roller with ⁄4 in (0.64 cm) nap. Dip your roller in the paint tray and roll it in the bed to remove excess paint. Roll your furniture in the direction of the grain, starting from the top and working your way down. Cover each surface 2-3 times to make sure that you don’t miss any indentations or grooves in the wood.\nIf your piece of furniture is really big, feel free to use a standard 9 in (23 cm) roller.\nIf the wood is really rough or has a lot of scratches in it, try using a roller with a thicker nap. <img> Apply additional coats based on how dark and uniform you want the paint to be. The more coats of paint that you apply, the darker and more uniform your paint job will be. If you want a more rustic, distressed look, you can stop after 1 coat of paint. For a standard look, apply 2-3 coats. Wait 6-12 hours between coats to ensure that the previous layer has fully dried.\nSand lightly in between coats if you have any drips or blemishes that you want to cover. <img> Apply a protective finish if you want to preserve your paint job. If you’re happy with the look and feel of your painted furniture, you can stop after you’ve painted it. If you want to protect the paint, add a layer of polycrylic protective finish. Use a natural-bristle brush and a small foam roller to cover every surface of your furniture. Wait 72 hours to give the finish enough time to fully settle.Tip: Polycrylic protective finishes come in liquid or spray form. You can use the spray version of the product if you’d like to get a stippled texture on your furniture.\n\nThe finish won’t change the color of the paint job, but if you get a glossy version of the finish, it could make your furniture more reflective.\nIf you don’t wait at least 3 days before using or touching your furniture, it will be sticky and you could risk ruining the finish. <img> " ]	[ [ "4d99c555-ba4a-44d7-9e5e-cddbfa218644", "138ce6f3-6f23-4fb5-b496-9502c84057d5", "f1034649-774a-448c-9399-17576990f6fe", "ec9fddb6-ff31-40bf-9011-08384c0a8953", "cb613be3-b6a8-44c6-af48-0ce5e427f0ef" ], [ "8d9691f8-8259-4b6a-afc1-f46199d41b40", "7eb6060c-62a1-4eb3-8bf6-23be55f48b7c", "39e0a9dc-1385-404b-bc40-d1f0f3e9ccc6", "0806b450-082c-4a8a-98d2-30299beef6c1", "f60f5298-1797-407d-a2f4-7f67322e8898", "31d7ca82-adf1-4942-8743-8df92779d33b" ], [ "1c576af2-6cd2-4277-9c2f-6cd7cc222ce5", "629aecf7-f462-4832-a32b-59d93aae241f", "ea24fe92-849e-4718-8f27-4d44129ab907", "c9889714-47f1-463c-b414-212d2c227029", "68b93cf2-6bc7-44b0-aef7-3f461bf85bf7", "07f51956-caed-48ec-bb31-36b121b35ae4" ] ]	[ [ "4d99c555-ba4a-44d7-9e5e-cddbfa218644.jpg", "138ce6f3-6f23-4fb5-b496-9502c84057d5.jpg", "f1034649-774a-448c-9399-17576990f6fe.jpg", "ec9fddb6-ff31-40bf-9011-08384c0a8953.jpg", "cb613be3-b6a8-44c6-af48-0ce5e427f0ef.jpg" ], [ "8d9691f8-8259-4b6a-afc1-f46199d41b40.jpg", "7eb6060c-62a1-4eb3-8bf6-23be55f48b7c.jpg", "39e0a9dc-1385-404b-bc40-d1f0f3e9ccc6.jpg", "0806b450-082c-4a8a-98d2-30299beef6c1.jpg", "f60f5298-1797-407d-a2f4-7f67322e8898.jpg", "31d7ca82-adf1-4942-8743-8df92779d33b.jpg" ], [ "1c576af2-6cd2-4277-9c2f-6cd7cc222ce5.jpg", "629aecf7-f462-4832-a32b-59d93aae241f.jpg", "ea24fe92-849e-4718-8f27-4d44129ab907.jpg", "c9889714-47f1-463c-b414-212d2c227029.jpg", "68b93cf2-6bc7-44b0-aef7-3f461bf85bf7.jpg", "07f51956-caed-48ec-bb31-36b121b35ae4.jpg" ] ]
How to Improve Long Term Memory	[ "s7l08fUuIFsi", "249cYZDl8bi2", "hgTRL0Dwz20M" ]	[ "Keep your brain mentally active. Challenging yourself to learn new things helps keep your brain healthy by spurring growth of brain cells. Make sure you’re regularly exposing yourself to new ideas.\nTry taking a class. See if there are any interesting offerings at a local community college, or sign up for an online skills course.\nGet in the habit of trying out different mental exercises. Do a daily or weekly crossword puzzle or sudoku.\nPick up some more challenging reading material. Thinking about complex ideas and learning new vocabulary can help keep your mental skills sharp. <img> Get more sleep. Your brain function will get worse as you get older, but it may decline less if you’re getting enough rest. Sleep also helps cement information in your memory.\nTry taking more naps, or getting to bed at an earlier time.\nGet better quality sleep by reducing light and noise pollution in your bedroom. <img> Take part in social activities. Research suggests that your memory declines less over time if you’re living a socially active life. Put in the effort to meet new people and maintain your relationships with friends and family.\nSpend time engaging with people who like to have interesting conversations. Try meeting up with people regularly for meals, or scheduling phone conversations with friends you want to keep in touch with.\nFind people who have things in common with you by looking for new local communities to join. See if there are volunteer opportunities with organizations you care about, or use social media to seek out local groups or clubs.\nIf you can’t find any groups that appeal to you, start your own! You could try gathering some friends and starting a book club or a walking group. <img> Eat heart-healthy foods to improve long-term memory function. Your heart is responsible for pumping blood to your head, so keeping your circulatory system healthy will also aid your brain.\nMunch on lots of fresh fruits and vegetables. In particular, strawberries, blueberries, and leafy greens are thought to help keep your brain sharp as you age.\nEat more unsaturated fats, and fewer saturated fats. For example, cooking with olive or canola oil is healthier than cooking with butter.\nMake sure your diet is rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which are present in high quantities in fish.\nTry to eat red beans as they tend to favour memory development. <img> Get some aerobic exercise. Pumping up your heart rate can improve long-term memory recall and reduce your risk of developing brain disorders like Alzheimer’s disease.\nExercising boosts the amount of blood flowing to your brain, and it spurs your brain to release a chemical that helps fix damaged brain cells. <img> Reduce your stress levels. This can keep your brain sharper over time. Try meditating, adopting a positive mindset, and finding healthy outlets for stress. <img> ", "Focus intensely on the new information. You’ll be more likely to remember something in the future if you give it all of your attention while you’re trying to learn it. Don’t try to multitask.\nMinimize distractions by turning off the TV, switching off music, and putting your phone somewhere you can’t see it. Limiting the number of things competing for your attention helps new information move from your short-term to your long-term memory.\nTry asking your roommate or family to give you some quiet time. If you have kids, see if someone else can watch them for a while so you can have an uninterrupted study session. <img> Take a break after learning something new. Just sit quietly or meditate for a few minutes. Avoid distractions or trying to get other things done during this time, as it will interfere with the process of building the new memories you’ve just formed.\nTaking a nap after a study session can help you remember it later! Research has shown that when mice go to sleep after learning a new task, new neural connections are formed in their brains. <img> Review information right before bed. Studies suggest that your brain uses sleeping hours to review and select what you will be able to recall in the long-term. For this reason, you can improve your long-term memory recall by going over information that you want to retain right before you go to sleep. Organize information into related clusters. Information is stored in your memory in chunks, so group similar items together and memorize these smaller chunks individually.\nFor example, if you’re trying to remember a list of items to buy at the grocery store, group them into categories like “produce” and “dairy products,” and try to memorize each category separately.\nRearrange your study material into related categories. Try typing up an outline, highlighting similar ideas with the same color highlighter, or copying information onto index cards and making a different pile for each of the concepts.\nOccasionally mix up all the information from your different sections, and study the material out of order. This can help you notice new connections between more distantly related topics. <img> Space out your study sessions. Your ability to remember things can drastically improve if you have many small study sessions over a longer period of time, as opposed to spending a large chunk of time cramming all of the information at once.\nEach time you review something, you will remember it better, so when first memorizing something repeat it often, and over time you can review it with less frequency. For example, when learning a new fact, first repeat it five seconds later, then thirty seconds later, then two minutes later, and so on.\nEven if you only have a little bit of time to study, it helps to space out your material as much as possible within one study session. For example, don’t review the same few items over and over again, and then move on to the next few. Instead, go over each item once, and after you’ve covered all of the information go back and review everything again. <img> ", "Form associations between new and remembered information. If you can link new ideas with previously established ones, then you can increase the chance that new memories will be formed. Try coming up with a familiar picture, song, joke, or rhyme that you can associate with the new material.\nForm a picture in your mind that includes the new fact. For example, if you’re meeting someone named Peggy, picture them with a pirate hat, eye patch, and peg leg.\nTry making an acronym or acrostic to learn multiple pieces of information in order. Invent a sentence where the first letter of each word stands for a word you’re trying to remember. A popular example is used by music students learning the order of notes on a treble clef staff, where the phrase “Every Good Boy Does Fine” represents the notes “EGBDF.” \"PEMDAS\" and \"FANBOY\" are other popular examples of mnemonics.\nCome up with a rhyme that contains the information you need to remember. For example, “In fourteen hundred and ninety-two, Columbus sailed the ocean blue.”\nIt’s helpful to come up with an association early on, when you’re first learning the information. The more associations you can create, the more likely it is that the new fact will stick in your memory. <img> Engage as many of your senses as possible when learning new info. It’s common to have strong memories tied to certain sounds, smells, tastes, or feels, so take in new material in as many ways as possible.\nPay attention to any pictures or graphs that accompany the information you’re trying to learn. Alternatively, draw your own simple diagram to summarize the idea.\nListen to an audio version of a book, or read text out loud. Notice which methods seem to work best for you, and try to incorporate those learning styles into your future learning endeavors. <img> Repeat new facts as soon as you come across them. It may be boring, but simply repeating new information over and over in different ways will help it stick in your brain better, especially if you space out the repetition over time.\nFor example, if you’re trying to remember the definition of a new word, read it several times to yourself. Then speak the definition out loud a couple times, and try writing it down once or twice.\nIt helps to repeat the information over a spaced-out period of time. For example, if you want to remember someone’s name, say it out loud immediately after they introduce themselves, and again at the end of the conversation. Repeat it in your head a couple minutes later, and again at the end of the night. <img> Teach someone else the information you’re trying to learn. Teaching can help you remember and understand things better yourself. Find a classmate or co-worker who needs to learn the same information, form a study group, and take turns teaching each other different concepts. Alternately, ask a friend if they’re willing to learn something new from you! <img> Test yourself after learning something new. Simply re-reading the same information isn’t good enough - you have to actually practice retrieving the information from your memory in order to strengthen the connections within your brain.\nIf you’re working out of a textbook with quizzes at the end of each chapter, go through and answer several of the questions. You can also try asking yourself questions about the material, and looking up the answers you come up with in order to double-check yourself.\nMany people don’t like tests because they feel frustrated when they realize they’ve forgotten something they’ve just tried to learn, but going through the process of forgetting and re-learning new things helps better cement memories in your mind.\nBe sure to immediately check your answers to make sure you’ve gotten them right. If you answer something wrong, you will be more likely to remember it incorrectly in the future as well, so immediately correct yourself and repeat the right answer a few more times. <img> Recover a missing memory by thinking of associations you have with it. When you can’t remember something that you’re sure you know, think of when you might have learned that piece of information. Try to remember where you were, who told you, or what you were doing, and it may help jostle your brain into remembering. <img> " ]	[ [ "829dabc0-dc72-4e57-ad62-641fcc2a919d", "c673f804-459a-4a5a-9533-4db3d640ad56", "6518d036-5713-4daf-847c-06b6cab31038", "aa4f43d0-3ccb-4cbe-93f7-cded1a942067", "e752a61a-d280-416f-a6a0-93ec2e457163", "bd90713f-a71e-49af-9145-1f8d20d78029" ], [ "f9c3ccbc-784e-4414-9caf-d4fd214c478e", "7a32ef18-0b6f-4d6d-b89f-ae87b074693d", "3a1e247c-7394-4191-a36b-11c692527e7f", "94cd1269-f326-41d4-b7a6-599ebad16a18" ], [ "fb2bcd67-a9ba-4629-a109-7bbebb8d858e", "b8d11e52-9441-456e-9de5-2a3e86042d35", "e7bf7668-610c-4832-bddc-8a8d3d53065e", "419a294f-49ed-4170-a096-830a59becc99", "4ab74832-ed9e-4134-9c89-26f4d7de6ae0", "0572cab2-bb8e-441c-a908-2549ea3bf49f" ] ]	[ [ "829dabc0-dc72-4e57-ad62-641fcc2a919d.jpg", "c673f804-459a-4a5a-9533-4db3d640ad56.jpg", "6518d036-5713-4daf-847c-06b6cab31038.jpg", "aa4f43d0-3ccb-4cbe-93f7-cded1a942067.jpg", "e752a61a-d280-416f-a6a0-93ec2e457163.jpg", "bd90713f-a71e-49af-9145-1f8d20d78029.jpg" ], [ "f9c3ccbc-784e-4414-9caf-d4fd214c478e.jpg", "7a32ef18-0b6f-4d6d-b89f-ae87b074693d.jpg", "3a1e247c-7394-4191-a36b-11c692527e7f.jpg", "94cd1269-f326-41d4-b7a6-599ebad16a18.jpg" ], [ "fb2bcd67-a9ba-4629-a109-7bbebb8d858e.jpg", "b8d11e52-9441-456e-9de5-2a3e86042d35.jpg", "e7bf7668-610c-4832-bddc-8a8d3d53065e.jpg", "419a294f-49ed-4170-a096-830a59becc99.jpg", "4ab74832-ed9e-4134-9c89-26f4d7de6ae0.jpg", "0572cab2-bb8e-441c-a908-2549ea3bf49f.jpg" ] ]

How to Become a Talent Manager	[ "e7aMOX2RjYw1", "XYtAZd3l39iJ", "8WEcLGZlR6Cs" ]	[ "Become active in the performing arts. Get involved with local stage productions by auditioning for a role or volunteering to help backstage. Start or join a band, or try your hand at stand-up comedy. Dig into the performing arts in general and discover what you're passionate about.\nYour passions will help you decide what aspect of the industry you want to work in. For instance, you might immerse yourself in the work of important musicians and actors from the last 50 years, or explore the world of streaming radio. <img> Obtain a 4-year degree in marketing or business. There is no formal coursework that teaches you to be a talent manager, but most roles call for at least a bachelor's degree. Choose a major that emphasizes skills in communication, finances, organization, and business matters. Talent management requires the use of these skills on a daily basis.\nFor example, undergraduate degrees in marketing, communications, public relations, or human resources are all great options that can help prepare you for talent management.\nPursue a minor in fine arts to better understand the creative minds you will be working with. <img> Familiarize yourself with the entertainment industry. Many talent managers were once performers themselves or are connected to the entertainment industry in some way, such as being an acting teacher, producer, or theater critic. Explore ways you can get hands-on experience with the industry. For example, you could start a blog of film reviews, or apply for a summer job as a local theater director's assistant. <img> Identify the type of performer you want to work with. While talent agents may represent a large number of clients on behalf of their agency, talent managers usually represent and work closely with an individual. Knowing the kind of people you like to work with will be important to your success.\nFor example, if music is your passion, focus on working with musicians. If you want to work with actors, focus on the film, stage, or television industries. <img> ", "Relocate to an entertainment industry hot spot. To work in the entertainment industry, you have to go where to action is. Depending on where you live, this could be New York, Los Angeles, London, Mumbai, Las Vegas, Tokyo, and so on. The closest major city is a great place to start. Choose a location that makes sense for the particular industry you want to work in.\nFor example, if you want to work with musicians, go for New York, Los Angeles, London, Nashville, etc.\nFor stage acting and entertainment, consider Las Vegas or New York.\nFor television and radio, try the closest major city. <img> Take a low-level position or internship with a management agency. Talent managers often start their careers in lower-level positions with management firms or agencies, and then work their way up to management. Take whatever job you can find with a talent management agency, such as an administrative or assistant role, and dedicate yourself to moving up the ladder.\nIf you can't find a talent management agency to work with right away, you can also learn more about the industry by working for producers, directors, or casting directors. <img> Look for opportunities to take on more responsibility. As you gain more experience during your internship or position, look for the chance to assist in evaluating scripts, planning tours, or developing promotional packages. Take on extra projects and show a keen interest in learning more. Strive to be personable, reliable, and hardworking.\nWorking for a talent management firm allows you to be around a lot of different performers. Eventually, you may be given complete charge over a client, which could be the start of your career. <img> Grow your network within the industry. As you advance your career, you will meet many important people in your industry. Focus on creating strong, lasting connections with talent and managers alike, growing your social and professional currency and relevance.\nYour connections will be valuable assets when you start working directly with clients, so view networking as a top priority. <img> ", "Join a professional organization. Joining an organization such as the Talent Managers Association (TMA) gives you the chance to learn more about the business from your colleagues and find more networking opportunities. The TMA maintains an online registry of its members, who are required to follow the association's code of ethics.\nThere is no better way to advance your career than surrounding yourself with the best people working in the field. <img> Be prepared to work closely with strong personalities. Unlike talent agents, who take a more reserved role in a performer's career, a manager works closely and personally with clients. You may have to navigate large egos, obnoxious behavior, emotional breakdowns, and stressful environments. You will need to provide support and counsel to your clients on both a personal and professional level, so be prepared to work intimately with them.\nFor example, you may need to calm down a client who's just broken up with her boyfriend. Their breakup has nothing to do with her career, but she comes to you for comfort and guidance nevertheless.\nIn a more extreme example, you may have a troubled client who is experiencing problems with drugs and alcohol. You might have to take charge of the situation and help them check into rehab. <img> Keep your client list small. To be an effective talent manager, you'll need to work closely with your clients every single day. This is a time-consuming role. Most talent managers limit themselves to having around 5 clients in total. If you are working with a particularly high profile client, you may want to work solely for them. Avoid spreading yourself too thin to keep your clients happy. <img> Communicate and meet with your clients frequently. You will need to interact with your clients almost every day to provide advice, assistance, and guidance. Touch base with them by phone or email each day when you get into the office. If needed, set up appointments with them, so you can go over their schedules or scripts in person.\nKeep them on schedule by setting up reminders for appearances and shoots.\nGive them your thoughts about new roles they're considering, or their newest song or project. <img> Meet with prospective clients. Attend actor's workshops, concerts, and events to scope out talent to add to your roster. Keep your particular strengths in mind and look for clients who can most benefit from those strengths. For example, if networking is your strong suit, consider working with up-and-coming talent in need of their next break. If you excel at organization and task management, consider taking on clients with established careers who need help managing their day to day activities. <img> " ]	[ [ "dfa252b2-e471-43d5-b386-ae43448fbf48", "c0951c3e-b8bd-4c5a-86ba-11647663d0b6", "ce4685a7-2936-4781-a147-e0e3ad66ccf6", "86cb1609-3c3c-4cb6-8144-d581653d44e5" ], [ "c9c3bade-73c3-4d9b-98e9-dafe9ea4b11f", "4c482a71-8934-4fea-bc46-7092665ff5e4", "55992a61-f535-416c-9073-ef355a68e54b", "13505f5d-50e1-4da2-93f0-84bd17f4ae19" ], [ "dd528798-6509-4eba-a32d-5c537a2393ab", "e5297ec4-e726-4396-bec1-edb17be40bac", "6205b164-1ca9-4697-8927-eed19139345e", "9e645095-bbbb-488a-ae83-f5bc14586cd4", "3b00424f-5c73-4b03-a59f-312ae2fc514a" ] ]	[ [ "dfa252b2-e471-43d5-b386-ae43448fbf48.jpg", "c0951c3e-b8bd-4c5a-86ba-11647663d0b6.jpg", "ce4685a7-2936-4781-a147-e0e3ad66ccf6.jpg", "86cb1609-3c3c-4cb6-8144-d581653d44e5.jpg" ], [ "c9c3bade-73c3-4d9b-98e9-dafe9ea4b11f.jpg", "4c482a71-8934-4fea-bc46-7092665ff5e4.jpg", "55992a61-f535-416c-9073-ef355a68e54b.jpg", "13505f5d-50e1-4da2-93f0-84bd17f4ae19.jpg" ], [ "dd528798-6509-4eba-a32d-5c537a2393ab.jpg", "e5297ec4-e726-4396-bec1-edb17be40bac.jpg", "6205b164-1ca9-4697-8927-eed19139345e.jpg", "9e645095-bbbb-488a-ae83-f5bc14586cd4.jpg", "3b00424f-5c73-4b03-a59f-312ae2fc514a.jpg" ] ]
How to Get a Bird of Paradise to Bloom	[ "JO9kkHSbxq8r", "hTJjnHgwN2TY" ]	[ "Check the age of your plant to know if it should be blooming. Birds of paradise only start blooming after they’re about 3-4 years old. If your plant isn’t blooming, first confirm its age before taking further steps. If the plant is younger than this, then carry on with your normal care schedule to keep the plant healthy. If the plant is the correct age, then take some steps to encourage blooming.\nWhen you buy a new plant, write down the purchase date. Ask an employee when it was planted so you have an accurate age.\nIf you planted the seeds yourself, then it will be at least a few years before the flowers bloom. Be patient and let the plant grow. <img> Move your plant to a sunnier location. Lack of sun is one of the main reasons birds of paradise fail to flower. Monitor how much sun your plant gets. If it doesn’t hit the 6-hour minimum, then move it to a new location with more direct sunlight.\nAlternatively, transfer the plant to a pot and move it along with the sun throughout the day. This maximizes the sun it receives.\nEven when the plant is inside for the winter, place it near a window to get as much sun as possible. Check which windows in your home get the most sun and place the plant there. South-facing windows usually get the most sunlight. <img> Wait until the soil is dry before watering during the growing season. Sometimes overwatering can prevent a bird of paradise from flowering. Try reducing your watering schedule during the growing season and let the soil dry out on the surface. Then only water when the soil is dry.\nLet the soil dry about halfway down the pot. Don't let the soil dry completely to the bottom or the plant will start wilting.\nIf you notice any wilting or discoloration in the plant, then it needs more water. Increase your watering schedule so the plant doesn't die. <img> Switch to a 10-30-10 fertilizer high in phosphorus. Phosphorus encourages flower growth in plants. If your plant isn’t flowering, then find a fertilizer with a higher phosphorus content. Look for a product marked 10-30-10, meaning that it is 30% phosphorus. Use that every 2 weeks instead of the general purpose fertilizer.\nThe numbers on fertilizers indicate the amount of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, in that order. A 10-10-10 mixture has equal amounts of all, while a 10-30-10 is higher in phosphorus.\nCheck application instructions on your new fertilizer and follow them.\nDon’t use the phosphorus fertilizer in the rest of your garden unless all the soil is phosphorus-deficient. This can deplete healthy soil. <img> Bring the plant inside if the temperature is regularly below 50 °F (10 °C). If the temperature regularly drops below 50 °F (10 °C) outside, then the growing season has probably passed. No flowers will bloom past this point. Take the plant inside to let it rest for the next season. Make sure to put it on a winter watering schedule and leave it in direct sunlight.\nBirds of paradise are fairly resilient, and can tolerate temperatures as low as 24 °F (−4 °C) for a short time. Prolonged exposure will kill any flower buds, however.\nIf you live in a warm climate where temperatures stay above 40–50 °F (4–10 °C) most of the time, then you can leave the plants outside. <img> Be patient and let the plants roots grow in. Remember that birds of paradise take several years for their roots to grow in before they bloom. If the root system isn’t mature yet, then all these techniques won’t make the plant flower. Continue with your regular care schedule until the plant is mature enough to bloom. <img> ", "Use organic soil with good drainage. If you’re planting a new bird of paradise or repotting it, get a rich, organic soil mixture. Good ingredients to look for in a mixture are peat, compost, and perlite. Make sure the soil has no clay or sand, which make it less drainable.\nDon’t pack the soil tightly. This will make it drain less efficiently.\nUse a pot with holes at the bottom for drainage. Otherwise, the plant could get waterlogged. <img> Position the plant so its roots are just below the soil surface. If you’re repotting a bird of paradise, don’t bury its roots deep in the soil. This discourages flower growth. Leave the roots just below the soil level to help the flowers bloom better.\nIf you’ve already planted the roots deep, carefully dig the plant up and reposition it so the roots are shallower.\nIf you raised the plant from a seed, then the roots will probably stay near the surface naturally. <img> Leave the plant in a pot to encourage root growth. Birds of paradise bloom best when their roots grow into a tight cluster. Leaving the plant potted makes this process faster by stopping the roots from spreading out over a large area.\nIf the plant gets too large for its pot, replant it in a larger one. Remember to use an organic soil mixture to repot it.\nFlowers will still bloom if you put the plant in the ground, but it will take longer for the root clusters to form. <img> Make sure the plant gets at least 6 hours of sunlight per day. Birds of paradise require sunny conditions to bloom. Find the sunniest location on your property and place the plant there.\nIf the plant is in a pot, it’s easy to move around your property as the sun shifts throughout the day.\nIf your plant is inside, make sure it’s near a window in direct sunlight. <img> Keep the soil moist during the spring and summer months. During the growing season, water the plant on a regular basis. Keep the soil moist at all times. When it starts drying, water again.\nIf water pools on the surface of the soil, you’re watering too much. Let the soil drain and dry a bit, then use less water for the next watering session.\nTo avoid over-watering, you can use a spray bottle to wet the soil rather than pouring water in. <img> Let the soil dry out before watering again in the winter. Birds of paradise require less water during the winter months. Don’t water until the soil dries out. When you do water, only use enough to moisten the soil to avoid over-watering.\nPress your finger slightly below the soil surface to check the moisture level. If the soil still feels wet below the surface, wait another day before watering. <img> Apply a general-purpose fertilizer every 2 weeks during the growing season. Keep the plant well-nourished during the growing season. Use a balanced formula with equal amounts of phosphorus, nitrogen, and potassium. Feed the plant every 2 weeks for the best results.\nApply the fertilizer in the morning or evening, not in the heat of the day.\nSome fertilizer products have specific application instructions, so use it according to the directions. <img> " ]	[ [ "12373f60-ccd3-4cba-b97c-149d8bb3a33d", "0ea77aaa-ced4-4d7c-9897-da485a0521f3", "49e283c6-ec30-4de8-9cd0-ebb0c75669a2", "f9c4edb4-2b88-48b2-bcc1-6873e86b6cba", "cfc57130-ce8f-45ee-ac54-0d4bbd1781f6", "765ccd73-a859-4011-a239-533bcc7caa12" ], [ "3aa93a5f-b4aa-4f2d-9858-8ff66b645666", "590e6880-98d5-4c9b-8cb7-dcbcb3b2dcae", "d4eed021-1a4e-4e75-88a1-c49e016bdfca", "2a35e167-4c31-4657-87b7-4cb66cd2f500", "f40a35fe-309a-40f3-b409-a8752d35c712", "0744ea75-71aa-4da2-a92c-b38ba5006249", "bbd19e7b-7bcb-4fac-828e-48130985d610" ] ]	[ [ "12373f60-ccd3-4cba-b97c-149d8bb3a33d.jpg", "0ea77aaa-ced4-4d7c-9897-da485a0521f3.jpg", "49e283c6-ec30-4de8-9cd0-ebb0c75669a2.jpg", "f9c4edb4-2b88-48b2-bcc1-6873e86b6cba.jpg", "cfc57130-ce8f-45ee-ac54-0d4bbd1781f6.jpg", "765ccd73-a859-4011-a239-533bcc7caa12.jpg" ], [ "3aa93a5f-b4aa-4f2d-9858-8ff66b645666.jpg", "590e6880-98d5-4c9b-8cb7-dcbcb3b2dcae.jpg", "d4eed021-1a4e-4e75-88a1-c49e016bdfca.jpg", "2a35e167-4c31-4657-87b7-4cb66cd2f500.jpg", "f40a35fe-309a-40f3-b409-a8752d35c712.jpg", "0744ea75-71aa-4da2-a92c-b38ba5006249.jpg", "bbd19e7b-7bcb-4fac-828e-48130985d610.jpg" ] ]
How to Pluck a Pheasant	[ "5sR1ogdMSgLl", "zXaGyDTaiXBf" ]	[ "Gather plenty of newspaper or a very large plastic bag to lay the pheasant on. This is a very messy process, so lay out a nice area to work on that you can easily clean later. Have a trash bin handy to put the plucked feathers in while plucking. <img> Know the two types of feathers you will encounter and how to deal with them. Pheasants have two types of feathers, each of which come out a little differently. Be ready for them to avoid any surprises and ugly plucked pheasants.\n\nThick, quill-like feathers are found along the neck, sides of the breast, and flanks. They should be removed 1-2 at a time.\n\nThin, wispy \"under-feathers\" are found along the body, and come out relatively easily, even in bunches. <img> Hold the skin in place with your supporting hand whenever pulling out feathers. Don't let the skin of the bird pull with the feathers, as this will rip it and lead to an ugly, ungainly roast bird. Instead, use the hand holding the bird to keep the skin in place around the area where you are plucking.\nSlow down even more around pellet holes from hunting or joints -- these areas are often the softest and most prone for rips.\nThis should slow you down as you pluck. Pheasants have delicate skin, and you need to work slowly to get a nice bird. <img> Start by removing the long, thick tail feathers one at a time. These feathers will take a bit of effort to get out, but work slowly for the best results. Hold the bird under your arm, tucked against your ribs for support, and pull in the direction the feather is pointing. You want a quick, forceful yank to get the feather out, not a gradual pull.\nIf you're struggling to remove feathers, think about the direction you're pulling in. You want to pull hard in the direction the feather is going, but at the last minute you can pull upwards a bit, away from the pheasant, to get some extra power. <img> Work on the wings next, pulling 1-2 feathers at a time. Again, work slowly here, using a strong, quick yanking motion in the direction of the feather. Do not try and grab a handful of feathers and remove them all at once -- this usually leads to ripped skin or wings.\nThe wing are the deepest quills, and often take most effort. <img> Pull off the back feathers slowly by working against the grain. Start near the tail, grabbing only 2-3 feathers at once. This time, pull the feathers off by yanking up towards the head of the pheasant, opposite the natural direction of the feathers. You only want to pull a few feathers at once, as pheasant skin is thin and this motion can quickly rip the bird to shreds. <img> Using the same strategy as used on the back feathers, move on to the breast. Again, work in small areas, going slowly and holding the skin in place as you work. These are the thinnest, easiest feathers and will likely come off easily. <img> Remove the thick feathers around the neck, and under the wing one at a time. These are the thickest feathers and some of the softest skin, so work slowly. Make sure you keep the skin in place to prevent large rips.\nWhile it seems counter-intuitive, a rapid, forceful yank will protect the bird much better than a slow, gradual pull. <img> Carefully remove the last bits of feather around the feet, neck, and tail. There should be some more thin under-feather around the bird, so simply rotate the pheasant and pluck away any last feathers you find. Remember to go slowly, especially in these hard-to-reach areas. <img> Optionally, hang pheasants for 3-4 days before plucking to make processing easier. Most people will dry their birds by the neck before plucking. Simply use a meat hook in the neck or beak to let the birds dangle for a few days in a cool, dry place, like your garage. This loosens the skin and feathers and prepares for later drawing and gutting.\nFeathers come off best in heat. If you do hang the pheasants, let them return to room temperature before you start plucking. <img> ", "Soak the birds quickly in hot water to make plucking much faster and easier. Dunking the birds into simmering water for 90 seconds will make the skin looser and the feathers more likely to slide out. It can weaken the skin a bit, and is likely overkill if you only have to clean 1-2 birds. However, if you have a large number of pheasants to pluck, this will save you tons of time.\nMake sure the pot is big enough to fit a whole bird.\nWhile this makes plucking faster, you only want to soak one pheasant at a time. <img> Set a large pot of water on the stove until it reaches roughly 140–150 °F (60–66 °C). The important thing is that the water is steaming, but not yet boiling. This is shortly after the water becomes too hot to touch. You want to scald the pheasants, not cook them. <img> Holding it by the neck, dunk the body of the pheasant into the scalding water for 30 seconds. This will heat the skin and feathers, but won't allow any of it to actually start cooking. <img> Remove the bird, draining over the pot until water no longer streams down the sides. Remove the bird just long enough that it stops pouring water off it. This will temporarily cool it down. <img> Dunk and drain the bird two more times so it \"cooks\" for 90 seconds total. You want to work quickly, as it is the heat, not the water, that makes plucking easier. <img> Quickly pluck the pheasant as if you were doing a normal dry pluck. You should have your work station, with garbage bag and newspaper, already laid out. Let the last bits of water drain off, then get to work plucking while the pheasant is still hot. All of the normal rules apply:\nOnly remove 1-2 feathers at a time.\nHold the skin around the feathers tight with your supporting hand.\nUse quick, forceful movements to yank out feathers. <img> Heat and pluck only one pheasant at a time. Remember that the heat, not the water, is what makes plucking easier. Don't try and dunk all of your pheasants at once, then pluck them all afterwards. Heat a pheasant, pluck it, then move on to the next one when it is done. <img> " ]	[ [ "15cc1ad9-0ff7-41d4-af35-127dfaa9413f", "e8794eea-fdf4-4545-8ea4-12d1eb598d38", "215ca429-d143-4441-b5df-050fe50ce4e1", "6b1e808f-8e0d-4181-ab71-51384a954118", "f476c244-679c-45bf-a3f7-7c9cbd1eb093", "a2597b28-2115-4e9b-9b4c-dea39fb56360", "547eb8f3-c5e1-4c91-8a34-4b66c6fdd3e4", "e7f90ef9-29e7-4d46-9ba3-c58c390e69c8", "ceeec226-44c4-4e6e-b8b5-b74e1907991a", "ccc6e682-fbf6-49da-91a2-f1a87ba83a3a" ], [ "9a4ded61-ec16-4e7f-9c81-682e837d705d", "25a55bcf-7c99-4b09-b44b-865fe8ce2c48", "dbb1f5af-94da-45d9-9b37-474d8041b5c4", "522ca9c0-5aed-4f76-ad3f-fdeb56cee8dc", "98d373ba-502e-46b3-ab77-a59f76179308", "b147363c-9a77-472d-9dd1-e7d76245c8e9", "973738b5-71aa-49f0-9214-6c499c688c77" ] ]	[ [ "15cc1ad9-0ff7-41d4-af35-127dfaa9413f.jpg", "e8794eea-fdf4-4545-8ea4-12d1eb598d38.jpg", "215ca429-d143-4441-b5df-050fe50ce4e1.jpg", "6b1e808f-8e0d-4181-ab71-51384a954118.jpg", "f476c244-679c-45bf-a3f7-7c9cbd1eb093.jpg", "a2597b28-2115-4e9b-9b4c-dea39fb56360.jpg", "547eb8f3-c5e1-4c91-8a34-4b66c6fdd3e4.jpg", "e7f90ef9-29e7-4d46-9ba3-c58c390e69c8.jpg", "ceeec226-44c4-4e6e-b8b5-b74e1907991a.jpg", "ccc6e682-fbf6-49da-91a2-f1a87ba83a3a.jpg" ], [ "9a4ded61-ec16-4e7f-9c81-682e837d705d.jpg", "25a55bcf-7c99-4b09-b44b-865fe8ce2c48.jpg", "dbb1f5af-94da-45d9-9b37-474d8041b5c4.jpg", "522ca9c0-5aed-4f76-ad3f-fdeb56cee8dc.jpg", "98d373ba-502e-46b3-ab77-a59f76179308.jpg", "b147363c-9a77-472d-9dd1-e7d76245c8e9.jpg", "973738b5-71aa-49f0-9214-6c499c688c77.jpg" ] ]
How to Feed Carnivorous Plants	[ "KEHNkNZyoxKN", "IbkyfwpBcmb3" ]	[ "Only feed bugs to your carnivorous plants. Do not feed any meats intended for human consumption, or anything other than bugs. It is astonishing how many well-intended but clueless garden books and websites tell folks to offer small pieces of meat, usually hamburger, to their Venus flytraps. However, these traps are only designed to process bugs.\nUnsuitable foods may not kill the plant outright, but these items will kill every single trap they are placed into.\nChoose the bugs carefully. It is best to select small bugs that are about 1/3 the size of the traps, otherwise the carnivorous plant could become overwhelmed. \nYou can use live or dead bugs to feed these plants. However, some carnivorous plants like Venus flytraps will only eat live bugs unless otherwise motivated. <img> Don't overwhelm the trap with food. Each sticky trap on a Venus flytrap can only process so many bugs before it turns black and dies off. <img> Place your carnivorous plant near other plants with pest problems. A natural, hands-off way of feeding carnivorous plants is by placing them around other garden specimens with insect problems.\nGardeners should keep in mind that this technique won’t get rid of all the bugs on the other plants, but it may work as a control method. <img> Understand that most carnivorous plants don't need to be hand-fed. Even houseplants do not generally have to be fed. As much as every homeowner hates to admit it, there are always the occasional bugs that get in and really, that’s about all the plant needs to be happy. <img> ", "Avoid triggering the flytraps unnecessarily. Gardeners are also advised against triggering the traps on their Venus flytraps, because these traps only open and shut a set amount of times before they fall off. This can waste valuable plant energy. <img> Don't fertilize your carnivorous plants. Carnivorous plants such as sundews (Drosera species), butterworts (Pinguicula species), Venus flytraps, pitcher plants (Sarracenia species) and tropical pitcher plants (Nepenthes species), as well as the more expensive types, typically grow in damp soils that are devoid of most regular nutrients. This, in turn, led to them adapting by catching prey to fulfill their needs.\nTherefore, gardeners should avoid feeding fertilizer to their carnivorous plants, unless they are absolutely certain that it will be beneficial. <img> Flush out any fertilizer with distilled water. If gardeners accidentally get ordinary fertilizer on their plants, they should flush out the specimen with enough distilled water or rainwater that it seeps out the bottom of the pot.\nRepeat this process several times. There is no guarantee that the plant will be saved, but if it was only exposed to a small amount of fertilizer the chances of success are good. <img> Read up on your specific variety of carnivorous plant. There are a lot more types of carnivorous plants than those discussed here, each of which has its own specific needs and requirements. Therefore, gardeners should do the appropriate research on the specific specimen they are hoping to acquire to ensure that they know how to care for it properly. <img> " ]	[ [ "1796a221-bef9-4c3a-9444-3787b3ea93f4", "ae57ac21-37b0-44de-b1a4-5434ea16bf8c", "1c1cf16b-2f59-418b-98dc-0077d453d6e8", "517ccdfb-2ea2-4456-9941-d459aaf4366e" ], [ "7322837c-a6f2-44df-b727-65d11173b8d0", "95616d25-5ef0-433f-a1b2-314f52d03eae", "d75480cc-a153-4ecf-8e45-410164b85e4d", "ba5de93d-bf2f-4f5f-ba17-b59ad788fe6a" ] ]	[ [ "1796a221-bef9-4c3a-9444-3787b3ea93f4.jpg", "ae57ac21-37b0-44de-b1a4-5434ea16bf8c.jpg", "1c1cf16b-2f59-418b-98dc-0077d453d6e8.jpg", "517ccdfb-2ea2-4456-9941-d459aaf4366e.jpg" ], [ "7322837c-a6f2-44df-b727-65d11173b8d0.jpg", "95616d25-5ef0-433f-a1b2-314f52d03eae.jpg", "d75480cc-a153-4ecf-8e45-410164b85e4d.jpg", "ba5de93d-bf2f-4f5f-ba17-b59ad788fe6a.jpg" ] ]
How to Style a Wavy Bob	[ "j8MJcbIR3tD5", "a3BY6Mvo12bz", "B8LqawqxQR9C" ]	[ "Distribute a lightweight styling mousse through your damp hair. The mousse will help hold your hair in place once it’s styled. It’ll also give your hair volume and make your hair easier to style. Many styling mousses will also protect your hair from the heat in your styling tools, which can cause damage.\n\nApply the mousse properly by spreading it evenly through your hair from root to tip. <img> Dry your hair roughly while combing it with your fingers. If you have fine hair, dry it until it is about 80% dry. If you have coarse hair, dry it until it is 50% dry. When you’ve finished rough drying, let your hair air dry completely before using a curling iron. Finger-combing your hair while rough drying will help prevent tangles. \nStart with your blow dryer’s medium or low heat setting to prevent damage to your hair. <img> Heat your curling tool to 350 °F (177 °C) to 400 °F (204 °C). If your hair is color-treated or processed, you’ll want to use lower heat to avoid damaging your strands or ruining your hair color. Thick or textured hair can withstand higher temperatures.\nUse lower heat if you have fine or dyed hair. Lower heat won’t ruin your hair color or cause breakage.\nUse higher heat if you have thick or textured hair. If the temperature is too low, the curling iron won’t create curls. <img> Divide your hair into 3 horizontal layers, leaving a 2 in (5.1 cm) layer loose. This bottom layer will be the underside of your bob, closest to your neck. Use a clip to gather the other 2 sections of your hair out of the way. Curling your hair in sections makes styling easier and more manageable, ensures that all of your hair gets styled, and creates volume. <img> Wrap 1 inch (2.5 cm) vertical sections of hair around your curling tool. Start from one side of your head and work towards the other. For sections of hair around your face, wrap strands around the curling iron away from your face or shape your curls away from your face. If you wrap your hair towards your face, your hair will curl inward and cover your face.\nYou can use a curling iron, curling wand, or a flat iron to curl your hair.\nIf you’re using a curling iron, you can wrap your hair around the barrel without using the clamp, similar to using a curling wand. Or you can use the curling iron clamp to help keep your hair in place.\nFor larger curls, you can wrap 2 in (5.1 cm) sections of hair around your iron. <img> Hold your hair in your curling tool for 5 to 10 seconds. Fine hair takes less time to curl, while coarse, thick hair takes a few seconds more. At 5 seconds, tap the section of your hair wrapped around your iron or wand. If it feels very hot, release it from the iron.\nLet your curls cool once you release it from your curling tool. Touching them while they’re still warm can ruin the curl.\nYour iron may take longer to curl if it’s at a lower temperature. <img> Free another layer of hair to curl when you’ve finished the first layer. Once your bottom layer of hair is curled, release another layer of hair from your clip and curl that layer. You’ll have one layer left after this section. If your hair is very thick, you may want to work in 4 sections instead.\nIf you have blunt or sideswept bangs, you can clip them out of the way.\nPart your hair into more sections if you want to create more waves or curls. <img> Curl the final top layer of your hair. After curling the middle section or sections of your hair, you’re ready to curl the top layer. Release the rest of your hair and curl the strands to complete your bob.\nLet your hair cool completely after you finish curling so it can take shape and set. Touching them too early can undo your curls. <img> Tousle your curls with your hands to create waves. Finger brushing your hair will relax your curls into soft waves. Run your hands gently through your curls to create natural waves. Lift and shake your hair at the roots to add volume. <img> Use pomade to hold your waves in place. Rub a dime-sized amount of pomade into your fingers. Rake your fingers through your waves, shaking gently as you go to encourage waves. Using pomade rather than hairspray will hold your hair in place and give your waves some texture.\nRub a little extra pomade into your roots with your fingertips for extra hold and texture.\nIf you have bangs, finger brush them with pomade last. Doing them last ensures you don’t use too much pomade, which can weigh them down and make them look too heavy. <img> ", "Spritz clean, damp hair with texturizing spray. Use a sea salt spray or texturizing spray made for creating waves. A texturizing spray can create volume, add definition and help hold your hairstyle in place. <img> Separate your hair into 4 vertical sections to braid. Use your fingers or a comb to create 4 vertical sections. If you have thick or dense hair, you can divide your hair into more sections for smaller waves. If you have fine, thin hair, you can separate your hair into 2 or 3 sections. <img> Braid each section loosely. Divide one section into 3 smaller sections. Cross the right section over the middle. Then cross the left section over the middle. Continue the braiding pattern until you reach the end of your hair. Secure it with an elastic tie. Braid and secure the other sections of your hair.\nIf you have bangs you want to keep straight, don’t braid them and let them air dry. Otherwise, you can include them in your braids.\nDon’t pull the sections of your hair into braids too tightly. Loose braids will create soft, natural-looking waves. <img> Undo your braids when your hair has dried. Depending on the length of your bob and your hair type, it may take at least an hour or 2 for your braids to dry. Check if your hair has dried by feeling different sections in your braids. If they’re still damp, give it more time to dry.\nIf you’re short on time, blow dry your braids using medium or low heat. This could cause your hair to get frizzy.\nYou can also let your braids air-dry overnight if you want.\nUse a hooded hair dryer for the best results. <img> Use hairspray or more texturizing spray to finish styling. Once your braids are unraveled, spritz hairspray or texturizing spray into each section so your hairstyle will hold. Tousle your hair with your fingers while spraying so your waves look slightly messy and beachy.\nIf you have bangs, lightly spritz them with texturizing spray and rake your fingers through your hair. Don’t spray them more than once; too much product can weigh down bangs and make them look limp. <img> ", "Work styling cream into damp hair to hold waves. If your hair is already wavy, you can bring out your natural waves and hold them in place with a styling cream. Evenly distribute styling cream through your damp hair from root to tip.\nIf you have a shorter bob, start with a dime-sized amount of styling cream. If your hair is longer, start with a nickel-sized amount of cream. <img> Dry your hair with a diffuser attachment to enhance waves. You can flip your hair upside down to dry it or lean your head to one side while drying sections of hair. This will give your hair volume at your roots. Use a warm, medium heat setting so you don’t damage your damp hair.\n\nUse your diffuser to get your hair about 80% dry. Drying it too much will cause frizz. <img> Lift and squeeze your hair while blow drying to define your waves. You can lift your hair towards your roots with the diffuser or your hand to give your waves a gentle boost. Don’t scrunch your hair roughly with your hands, which might cause breakage. <img> Spritz finishing spray on your waves to add some moisture. After blow-drying, a finishing spray like argan oil can add a little moisture and shine to your waves. It’s also a lightweight product, so it won’t weigh down your hair. <img> Tousle and flip your hair at the roots to give it some volume. Gently rake your fingertips through the roots of your hair to give your strands a boost and keep them from laying flat. You can also flip sections of your in the other direction for extra volume. <img> " ]	[ [ "a93e9fb9-f864-49f6-a597-4243177488de", "ecf218d2-568c-4cf2-b9fd-9f3c7e31abb2", "7b73270b-922a-49f8-a7d3-8f5a54694ad1", "fab2f79e-1ff7-44bf-b7ed-042b93899d15", "449d8ec4-287c-43e9-814b-7b5f5a6166ef", "27c1e270-2021-4fc0-8cc5-da581b9623ca", "930b240d-3251-4a26-951b-58f0ce2c58c9", "03a30fd1-4c0f-4779-bc30-349ba494b605", "6347c9c5-80fa-49c5-99ef-082c528c9d81", "3f3587c1-79aa-4f6a-84b7-9d01892622d6" ], [ "9f12e87b-3cd9-4d4f-86e4-40b081d5eb80", "c371aea2-98c0-4d5b-932c-52f513311cf8", "5678e060-4c78-4a9e-a898-64756640ae06", "92afaf33-d2d5-4140-aab0-19a8087abdb2", "004e2d35-dbfc-48b3-83a7-dbf348d9f656" ], [ "d9bf3707-9856-4c18-b108-6f4bddf785a9", "aff39ed5-05d1-41ab-b3a9-90ecb00484c3", "fd222da6-1cb3-4f00-b15b-7fcd0e4545fb", "e09a0063-b2a6-44cc-ad0b-7731bcb16854", "9da71d4a-ebcc-404f-8b4a-bcdec708b74a" ] ]	[ [ "a93e9fb9-f864-49f6-a597-4243177488de.jpg", "ecf218d2-568c-4cf2-b9fd-9f3c7e31abb2.jpg", "7b73270b-922a-49f8-a7d3-8f5a54694ad1.jpg", "fab2f79e-1ff7-44bf-b7ed-042b93899d15.jpg", "449d8ec4-287c-43e9-814b-7b5f5a6166ef.jpg", "27c1e270-2021-4fc0-8cc5-da581b9623ca.jpg", "930b240d-3251-4a26-951b-58f0ce2c58c9.jpg", "03a30fd1-4c0f-4779-bc30-349ba494b605.jpg", "6347c9c5-80fa-49c5-99ef-082c528c9d81.jpg", "3f3587c1-79aa-4f6a-84b7-9d01892622d6.jpg" ], [ "9f12e87b-3cd9-4d4f-86e4-40b081d5eb80.jpg", "c371aea2-98c0-4d5b-932c-52f513311cf8.jpg", "5678e060-4c78-4a9e-a898-64756640ae06.jpg", "92afaf33-d2d5-4140-aab0-19a8087abdb2.jpg", "004e2d35-dbfc-48b3-83a7-dbf348d9f656.jpg" ], [ "d9bf3707-9856-4c18-b108-6f4bddf785a9.jpg", "aff39ed5-05d1-41ab-b3a9-90ecb00484c3.jpg", "fd222da6-1cb3-4f00-b15b-7fcd0e4545fb.jpg", "e09a0063-b2a6-44cc-ad0b-7731bcb16854.jpg", "9da71d4a-ebcc-404f-8b4a-bcdec708b74a.jpg" ] ]
How to Prepare Your Household for a New Dog	[ "auaBukZ5ThLK", "KjVm5xLJPKxP", "r1qckRQybT6Y" ]	[ "Purchase waste cleaning tools to use during your dog’s bathroom breaks. Proper waste cleaning tools for dogs include a pooper scooper or plastic baggies specially designed for picking up your dog’s waste and throwing it away.\nInvest in potty pads or extra newspapers as well. Even if your dog is fully housebroken, they may be prone to accidents at first as they adjust to living with you.\nEven with a well-trained dog, accidents are inevitable. You should make sure that you have a stain remover and paper towels to deal with those occasions. <img> Buy a bed for your dog to sleep in. Pick a bed according to your dog’s size. Try to select a plush-looking bed for your dog’s comfort, and maybe purchase a few pillows and a blanket for additional comfort. You can keep your dog’s bed in one of the family’s bedrooms, or set up an area in your den or family room. Try to pick a spot that looks cozy! <img> The bed should be large enough for your dog to lie down completely and stretch out without falling over the edges. <img> Pick out your dog’s food and water bowls. Metal bowls are ideal, since they are sturdy and easy to clean. Be sure to keep your dog’s size in mind as you select their food and water bowls. A bowl that is too small and low to the ground will force a large dog to stoop down to use it, which can cause joint problems down the road. If you can’t find a bowl with its own stand, you can purchase a small stand to place your dog’s bowls onto.\nAvoid keeping your dog’s water and food bowls in the kitchen. This area is one of the most high-traffic spots in most homes. All the hustle and bustle in and out of the kitchen could stress out your dog while it eats and cause issues with their digestion. You may want to place their bowls in the dining room or in a special little nook in the living or family room.\nMost dogs make a mess when they eat. Make sure wherever you place their food bowls isn’t too hard for you to clean up, and place a mat or towel under the dishes to help keep spills manageable. <img> Get a bag of dog food. Research your dog’s nutritional needs before you purchase their food. Dogs of different sizes and ages have varying dietary requirements. Talk to a vet to see what brands they recommend for your dog. Ask about foods that are research-backed and that have no additives, as these tend to be healthier.\nTry to buy your dog food in bulk; this will save money and take care of all of your dog’s meals for the month. You can keep the bag of dog food in your pantry for easy access at mealtimes.\nIf your dog is elderly or special needs, ask if they require a specific food to eat. <img> Purchase a leash for your dog. Both basic leashes and retractable leashes are perfectly capable of fulfilling your dog’s walking needs. Check the tag to see how much weight the leash can bear. This will allow you to choose the best leash for your dog’s size. If you have a key rack, you can keep the leash there so you can just grab it and go when it’s time to go for walks. <img> Obtain grooming supplies (brushes and dog shampoos). Even if your dog isn’t longhaired or prone to shedding, they will still need to be bathed on a regular basis. Check the labels to make sure the type of shampoo you’re picking is ideal for your dog’s fur and health requirements. Grooming tools can be kept in bathroom cupboards or on shelves. <img> Buy a few toys for your dog. A few toys will come in handy in terms of keeping your dog from getting bored during the quiet parts of your day. A tennis ball or rubber bouncing ball, squeaky toy, and stuffed animal are great toys to start off your dog’s collection with. You can keep them near your dog’s bed until they arrive.\nStart with a few different kinds of toys. These will help you get an idea of what your dog likes so that you can buy more in the future. <img> Get a box of treats. Dog treats are good tools to use for training and maintaining your dog’s oral health. Try to pick an appealing flavor, such as peanut butter, cheese, or bacon. Be sure to check the box for ingredients, so you know the treats are healthy as well as enjoyable. You can keep your dog’s treats in one of your kitchen cupboards. <img> Purchase a dog crate for crate training. A crate will come in handy for bringing your new dog home. Make sure you have a general idea of the size of the dog you’re planning to adopt. This will help you to get a crate that’s big enough for your dog to stand in comfortably, and turn around without being cramped.\nMake sure you buy a bed or pad for the bottom of the crate. This will help keep your dog comfortable and prevent them from getting sores.\nPlace the dog’s crate in your (or another family member’s) bedroom. Dogs can get anxious when inside their crate. Knowing you’re nearby will make it easier for them to be in their crate. You can gradually move it elsewhere after the first two weeks, once your dog is more used to you. <img> Choose a special, cleanable area in your home for your new dog to stay. The first few weeks of your dog’s life in your home will be stressful, which may lead to a few potty accidents. Mark an area in your home for your dog to rest and hang out until they adjust to living with you. An area with hardwood or tiled flooring is the best choice.\nIf you don’t have or want to use any areas in your home with hard flooring, lay down newspaper or potty pads on your carpeting to contain any messes. <img> ", "Perform a sweep of each room in your home. Walk through your house and try viewing them through your dog’s perspective. Think about areas a dog could get into and which parts of a room could cause a dog harm. Now is the time to plan out how to take care of any unsafe areas of your home that you find.\nLook over your bedroom to check where you keep your shoes, dirty laundry, and hair care accessories, such as combs and bands. Your dog may be tempted to chew on these, so they will need to be placed out of sight and reach. Your shoes and laundry can be tucked into your closets. Hair care tools are best placed on your dresser, if your dog cannot reach the top, or on a high shelf.\nIf your living or family rooms have fireplaces installed, make sure access to the fireplace is blocked off by a grate or screen. Look out for small objects your dogs could be tempted to chew, such as toys, and put them away.\nCheck your kitchen inventory for foods that are poisonous to dogs. This includes coffee, chocolate, garlic, and avocados, to name a few. Place these items far out of your dog’s reach, like on a high shelf or in your pantry. <img> Set up baby gates to keep your dog out of certain bedrooms, bathrooms, or your office. Anywhere you don’t want your dog to be can be blocked off with a gate. Make sure the gates are too tall for your dog to jump over. 26 inches (66 cm) should be tall enough for a small dog, whereas 50 inches (130 cm) may be preferable for a large dog. <img> Bundle up any and all groups of electrical wires and tuck them out of sight. Puppies (and some older dogs) may get the urge to chew on exposed wires. Look around for any freely hanging wires and, if you can, bundle them together with a band. You can then tuck them behind a shelf and/or bind them against the wall with tape.\nIf you can’t hide certain wires, use cord covers and protectors. These will keep your dog from chewing on cords that you just can't hide. <img> Place any fragile objects and plants out of your dog’s reach. Shelves, cupboards, and some high tables and windowsills should be effective places to keep these objects away from your dog. Keep your dog’s size in mind as you decide where to put things. You may also want to place some of these items in a room your dog cannot access. <img> Stow your cleaning products and other chemicals where your dog can’t reach. High cupboards and shelves are suitable places to keep these supplies. Your garage shelves are another good place to use for cleaning tools you don’t need as often. <img> ", "Work out a dog care schedule with your family. Talk with your family to determine who will housebreak the dog, who will take the dog for walks, who will feed the dog, and who will play with it. Discuss what time these responsibilities will take place each day.\nYou may want to walk the dog and let it use the bathroom first thing in the morning. Feed it immediately after you return home. Take the dog back out to use the bathroom after it finishes eating. Whoever wakes up earliest in the morning can take care of these responsibilities, if they are old enough.\nThe rest of the afternoon can be filled with your other daily responsibilities. Give your dog breaks every few hours to go for walks and use the bathroom.\nThe evening is a great time to play with the dog and feed it supper. Offer these tasks to your kids. They’ll likely be at school during the day, so evening responsibilities can help them bond with the dog.\nTake the dog out for one last bathroom break just before the house settles down for bed. <img> Decide which areas you may want to keep the dog out of and how you’ll keep them out. Some areas you may want to keep the dog out of could be a guest bedroom or the bathrooms. You could settle on using a baby gate or just keeping the door closed to keep the dog out. <img> Discuss whether the dog be living inside or kept outdoors. Some people do not like the idea of a dog living inside the house. If you want to keep your dog outside, make sure you have a fenced yard that’s large enough for your dog to roam and play in. Alternatively, you may agree to keep the dog outside during the day and let it inside at night.\nIf you choose to keep your dog outside for any extended period, make sure it has access to food and fresh water, along with a shelter to protect them from the elements. <img> Talk about whether the dog can sleep in family beds or get up on the couch. Talk about how you’ll keep the dog from getting up on the furniture if you don’t want them on it. You may buy the dog its own furniture to use (like blankets and chairs) and hash out training methods to teach it that your furniture is off-limits. You could also agree to let it on some furniture (like specific chairs or one family member’s bed) but not others. <img> Decide who will stay home the first week to care for the dog. If possible, you or one of your family members should stay home to care for the dog the first week it comes home. This is about the usual amount of time it will take the dog to get used to living with you and fall into your routine.\nIf no one in your household can stay home with the dog, look around for pet care services, like daycares and walking services. <img> Look for obedience classes. Obedience classes are a great option if you’re a new dog owner. They can help you learn the best ways to socialize and train your dog so your relationship can develop smoothly. Be sure to research different obedience classes in your area. Check Google and Yelp ratings for a class’s quality.\nOn top of being a good way to teach your dog proper behaviors, obedience classes help you build a relationship with your dog. This is why they are recommended any time you bring a new dog into your house.\nMake sure everyone in your home spends time at obedience training with your dog. This way your dog learns to listen to and bond with everyone in your house. <img> Go vet shopping. Whether you’re adopting an adult dog or a puppy, it’s important to find a clinic to handle their basic care. You should set up an initial check-up soon after adopting your new dog. Look around at different vets in your area and compare prices and personalities. The best vet is one that is able to handle animals responsibly and compassionately, but also fits into your budget.\nIf you know anyone else with a dog, ask them for vet recommendations. Word of mouth is a great way to find new, highly-recommended pet health professionals. <img> Prepare a set of tags with your information to bring on adoption day. Getting your dog’s tags ready in advance is a good safety measure. If your dog gets lost, anyone who finds it can get in touch with you by reading the tags attached to your dog’s collar.\nIf your dog has already been chipped by the adoption center, be sure to request that they modify the chip to feature your information. <img> Ask the shelter about your dog’s food and meal schedule. Suddenly switching your dog over to a new brand of food can upset their stomach. It’s better for your dog’s health to feed them the same way they were fed at the shelter. Wait at least one week before gradually introducing new food.\nIf you need to switch your dog to a new food, do so gradually. Start by adding 1/4 cup of their new food to a bowl of their old food. Increase the amount of the new food and decrease the amount of the old food a little every day until your dog has fully transitioned. <img> Implement your dog care routine. It’s best to introduce your dog to its new daily routine from day one. The sooner they learn how living with you works, the easier it will be for them to adjust to life with your family. Start housebreaking and walking your dog according to the schedule you and your family discussed earlier. <img> " ]	[ [ "7ec8f2ad-6e23-49a7-af98-fb93d47eed5b", "b0f1057a-6989-4861-a2be-b704f220a80d", "f769b9df-486b-45d2-87d4-1835b40e4540", "b06b188e-3a31-4a17-a966-fcc8163ea0b3", "f0211931-cc2f-4134-b98d-45fa459be9d2", "2f589437-c964-46ac-8041-9d1a829ed079", "ba5ebd26-431e-42b1-9ace-c4f48ea15940", "e1419829-d1ee-40d1-97b8-efe601879989", "71bd0ad5-c6f5-412d-b7b1-1c8e1b6a8f54", "00817978-4259-41d2-aec6-85657b91b9d3", "a175de56-9565-40cb-b24f-34a02bc8bfc4" ], [ "c6b50ad8-f9af-40b4-88f1-374203cabf0d", "5cbfb540-b4ee-40a8-a7d6-ed32ec702c64", "18e0dd93-0427-4b77-af78-f808594f13dd", "339b999c-ec16-4fc5-8b38-36fb069695b1", "c59f692e-8a4e-48b1-a34b-ea9015a2b030" ], [ "f71e9b66-daaa-45c4-a81d-7c117f344061", "16d7d917-5e71-4f1c-b77e-7043244f9d71", "fb50d335-0f38-4d35-9916-6e5e36cca97b", "0d0e074f-dfbc-4599-acda-14f4b0d429eb", "5ccf87cc-1d19-4c07-a72e-869fcab0a3ba", "9f4fb81b-5fa5-43bc-bfa9-03da4f02d297", "e792bc06-2b27-4ba6-b6ed-6349f42e6fa5", "de7d2fb1-7392-450d-8588-8739c3a0ed98", "869b7252-0da2-4534-9a14-f5fefc93bef1", "b140f222-5509-4632-8d26-2f79339103fa" ] ]	[ [ "7ec8f2ad-6e23-49a7-af98-fb93d47eed5b.jpg", "b0f1057a-6989-4861-a2be-b704f220a80d.jpg", "f769b9df-486b-45d2-87d4-1835b40e4540.jpg", "b06b188e-3a31-4a17-a966-fcc8163ea0b3.jpg", "f0211931-cc2f-4134-b98d-45fa459be9d2.jpg", "2f589437-c964-46ac-8041-9d1a829ed079.jpg", "ba5ebd26-431e-42b1-9ace-c4f48ea15940.jpg", "e1419829-d1ee-40d1-97b8-efe601879989.jpg", "71bd0ad5-c6f5-412d-b7b1-1c8e1b6a8f54.jpg", "00817978-4259-41d2-aec6-85657b91b9d3.jpg", "a175de56-9565-40cb-b24f-34a02bc8bfc4.jpg" ], [ "c6b50ad8-f9af-40b4-88f1-374203cabf0d.jpg", "5cbfb540-b4ee-40a8-a7d6-ed32ec702c64.jpg", "18e0dd93-0427-4b77-af78-f808594f13dd.jpg", "339b999c-ec16-4fc5-8b38-36fb069695b1.jpg", "c59f692e-8a4e-48b1-a34b-ea9015a2b030.jpg" ], [ "f71e9b66-daaa-45c4-a81d-7c117f344061.jpg", "16d7d917-5e71-4f1c-b77e-7043244f9d71.jpg", "fb50d335-0f38-4d35-9916-6e5e36cca97b.jpg", "0d0e074f-dfbc-4599-acda-14f4b0d429eb.jpg", "5ccf87cc-1d19-4c07-a72e-869fcab0a3ba.jpg", "9f4fb81b-5fa5-43bc-bfa9-03da4f02d297.jpg", "e792bc06-2b27-4ba6-b6ed-6349f42e6fa5.jpg", "de7d2fb1-7392-450d-8588-8739c3a0ed98.jpg", "869b7252-0da2-4534-9a14-f5fefc93bef1.jpg", "b140f222-5509-4632-8d26-2f79339103fa.jpg" ] ]
How to Overcome Trypophobia	[ "n0aTj6pACGOg", "jXplbAkZouXV", "wMmNdgvvK6W8" ]	[ "Understand trypophobia. People who have trypophobia suffer from an irrational fear of clusters of holes. Some examples of triggers include bubbles, lotus flowers, and aerated chocolate. Trypophobes report nausea, trembling, and severe anxiety when confronted with their triggers. Unlike some phobias that may dominate people’s thoughts, trypophobia seems only to affect sufferers when they see holes. <img> Know that trypophobia may have an evolutionary basis. Although little is known about the origins of trypophobia, some scientists have speculated that the phobia may have an evolutionary basis. Some venomous or poisonous animals have clustered hole patterns on their skin, so the reactions that some people have may be a survival response. For example, the blue-ringed octopus, and several venomous snakes have visual features that may help explain trypophobia. <img> Identify your triggers. It is important you know what types of clusters of holes trigger your anxiety and other negative effects so that you can begin to confront these objects. Make a list of all of the things that seem to set off your trypophobia and how you react to them.\nFor example, are you bothered by bubbles or anything resembling bubbles? Do honeycomb patterns bother you or just actual honeycombs? Are you upset by certain animals because of the patterns on their skin? Try to identify as many triggers as possible.\nTry to describe how your triggers make you feel as well. Do you get nauseous? Do you feel anxious? Do you tremble? Identify the specific reactions that you have to your triggers.\nIf one type of clustered hole pattern is scarier to you than another, try ranking the items on your list. That way you can start by dealing with the least frightening one on your list and work your way up. <img> Try to discover the underlying causes of your fear. Some people can trace their trypophobia to an event, which may help you to understand and deal with your fear. Think back to when your trypophobia started. Do you remember when you first discovered that clusters of holes are revolting or frightening to you? Like all phobias, there isn't just one answer. For everyone, it is different. Try to discover what it is that disturbs you, whether it's a bad memory, a bad experience, or just simply disgust. <img> ", "Educate yourself. One way to reduce the anxiety caused by an irrational fear is to learn the truth about the thing that you are afraid of. By educating yourself about the source of your fear, you can demystify it. Learning more about a source of fear is a very effective way to overcome it.\nFor example, if you feel anxious when you see a lotus pod, learn more about the lotus and why it develops clusters of holes. What purpose do they serve? Learning about the reason for the clustered holes will help you to confront the source of your fear and perhaps even appreciate the shape for the function it serves. <img> Confront your fears. While your first reaction to a clustered hole pattern may be to get away from it or shut your eyes and try to think of something else, this will only reinforce your fear. Instead, force yourself to confront the source of your fear and the way it makes you feel. This type of therapy is known as exposure therapy and it is the most effective way to treat a phobia, but it requires repeated exposure. Over time, you should become less sensitive to the things that trigger your anxiety.\nFor example, if you come face to face with a cluster of holes that causes you to feel anxious, take a deep breath and then examine your feelings. What does the object make you want to do? How does it make you feel? What is irrational about your feelings?\nTry writing out your response to trigger objects and reframing them as normal thoughts and feelings toward the object. For example, you might record something like, “I feel nauseous and anxious when I see a honeycomb. It make me want to throw up.” Then, recognize that this thought is irrational and rewrite your reaction as it should be if you did not have the phobia. For example, “I feel amazed by the pattern of the honeycomb and I want to eat the honey.” <img> Practice yoga, meditation, or another relaxation technique. If your anxiety is just too severe to confront the object at first, try using a relaxation technique to reduce your anxiety. Yoga and meditation are great techniques for relaxation, but you might also try progressive muscle relaxation, deep breathing, or simply take a long soothing shower. Find something that works for you and use it to help you deal with anxiety from your triggers.\nConsider taking a yoga or meditation class to learn some basics exercises that you can use a on a daily basis. <img> Take good care of yourself. Exercise, healthy food, and adequate are all important components of good mental health. Your trypophobia may be taking a toll on you, so it is important to put extra effort into maintaining your health. Regular exercise, a healthy diet, and adequate sleep can also help to keep your anxiety under control. Make sure that you are devoting enough time to meeting your basic needs for exercise, food, and sleep every day.\nAim for 30 minutes of exercise per day.\nEat a balanced diet of healthy whole foods like fruit, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins.\nGet 7-9 hours of sleep per night. <img> ", "Determine if you need to seek help from a mental health therapist. If your fear of holes has become so intense that it is interfering with your ability to carry out normal activities and enjoy your life, you should seek the help of a licensed mental health therapist. For example, if you start avoiding certain activities due to your fear, then it is time to get help. Other signs that you may need to seek help include:\nfeeling disabled, panicky, or depressed because of your fear\nfeeling like your fear is unreasonable\ndealing with the fear for more than 6 months <img> Understand what you can expect from a mental health therapist. A therapist can help you to better understand your trypophobia and help you find ways to minimize its impact on your life. Keep in mind that dealing with a profound fear takes time and effort. It can take a while before your fears become manageable, but some people see a dramatic improvement in just 8-10 therapy sessions. Some of the strategies that your therapist might use include:\n\nCognitive Behavioral Therapy If you are afraid of holes, you may have certain thought processes that intensify your fear. Cognitive behavioral therapy is a method that therapists use to get you to challenge your thoughts and identify the emotions associated with those thoughts. For example, you may think to yourself, “I can’t go outside because I might see a flower that has holes in it.” Your therapist will challenge you to realize that this thought is unrealistic, perhaps by pointing out that the flower can’t hurt you. Then, you will be challenge to revise the thought so that it is more realistic, such as, “I might see a flower with holes in it if I go outside, but it can’t hurt me. I can always look away if it bothers me.”\n\nExposure Therapy If you are afraid of holes, you may start avoiding certain situations, activities, and places that intensify your fear. Exposure therapy will force you to confront that fear head on. In this type of therapy, your therapist will either ask you to imagine that you are in the situation you have been avoiding or they will ask you to actually put yourself into the situation. For example, if you have been avoiding going outside because you are afraid you might see something with holes in it, your therapist may ask you to imagine that you are outside and surrounded by holes. Later, your therapist may challenge you to actually go outside and look at things with holes in them.\n\nMedications If your fear of holes is causing you to have severe anxiety or panic attacks, your therapist may refer you to a psychiatrist who can prescribe medicine that may help you. Keep in mind that the medicines used to treat anxiety associated with fear will only reduce your anxiety temporarily. They will not take care of the root cause. <img> Discuss your fear of holes with someone you trust. It's always good to talk to someone about your fears or anxiety. Try to open up to someone about your fear to start dealing with it. Talk to a family member, a friend, or a counselor about your fear and how it affects you in your daily life.\nConsider joining an online forum if you don’t feel comfortable sharing your fear with any of your family or friends just yet. You may find that others have similar concerns and experiences that may help you to feel less alone. They may also suggest methods that they’ve used for dealing with the stress associated with trypophobia. <img> " ]	[ [ "8e3a0665-c035-4e90-859a-e185d5a681ca", "fe64739e-d402-4c48-973a-579b676d4e3c", "33f50d51-c96e-43c2-80ad-34385c3f5569", "7b16808a-04f0-43c8-b045-4896121443f7" ], [ "a9f12f38-8a34-4b31-993a-b382731fc831", "8bea4c58-22c4-4c29-bed8-c6ba61e1693c", "e624897f-c115-4e43-b7ea-94d17d7dfe92", "0a82dcba-6861-4a6e-bd18-5c15368f7da5" ], [ "289a8c1b-1f59-40c2-88db-31a69f5debaf", "427ddc96-aa18-4f31-a899-37e354cd82f8", "f3a70176-d560-4ec8-afdf-d3ce1294bd76" ] ]	[ [ "8e3a0665-c035-4e90-859a-e185d5a681ca.jpg", "fe64739e-d402-4c48-973a-579b676d4e3c.jpg", "33f50d51-c96e-43c2-80ad-34385c3f5569.jpg", "7b16808a-04f0-43c8-b045-4896121443f7.jpg" ], [ "a9f12f38-8a34-4b31-993a-b382731fc831.jpg", "8bea4c58-22c4-4c29-bed8-c6ba61e1693c.jpg", "e624897f-c115-4e43-b7ea-94d17d7dfe92.jpg", "0a82dcba-6861-4a6e-bd18-5c15368f7da5.jpg" ], [ "289a8c1b-1f59-40c2-88db-31a69f5debaf.jpg", "427ddc96-aa18-4f31-a899-37e354cd82f8.jpg", "f3a70176-d560-4ec8-afdf-d3ce1294bd76.jpg" ] ]
How to Prevent Kidney Stones	[ "0bwY6kSbdvqS", "ugRiWgW2yyPH" ]	[ "Ask close relatives if they have had kidney stones. You are at greater risk for developing stones if family members have experienced kidney stones.\nStudies show that kidney stones appear to be more common in people with Asian and Caucasian backgrounds than for Native Americans, Africans, or African Americans. <img> Watch your weight. Research suggests that people with a high body mass index and larger waist sizes are at greater risk for the development of kidney stones.\nBody weight, not diet or fluid intake, appears to be the greatest risk factor for kidney stones. Eat a healthy diet and get plenty of exercise to reduce your weight and your risk. <img> Consider your age and gender. Men between 30 and 50 years old and postmenopausal women are the most likely to get kidney stones. <img> Think about other medical conditions you may have. Certain surgical procedures and medical conditions increase your risk of kidney stones. These include:\nGastric bypass or other intestinal surgery\nUrinary tract infections\nInflammatory bowel disease and Crohn's disease\nChronic diarrhea\nRenal tubular acidosis\nHyperparathyroidism\nInsulin resistance <img> Know the different kinds of kidney stones. There are four different kinds of kidney stones. The first step in being able to prevent kidney stones is knowing what causes them. Different kidney stones are caused by different lifestyle factors and diet decisions.\nCalcium stones. Calcium stones come in two forms: calcium oxalate stones and calcium phosphate stones. Calcium oxalate stones are the most common form of kidney stone. Calcium stones are often caused by high sodium intake.\nUric acid stones. Uric acid stones form when urine is very acidic, and are often because the patient has a diet high in animal protein (meat, fish, shellfish).\nStruvite stones. These are usually caused by kidney infections. Staying free of infection can usually stop struvite stones.\nCystine stones. These are formed when cystine leaks into the kidneys, resulting in stones. Cystine stones are caused by a genetic disorder. <img> ", "Drink plenty of water. You may have heard the “eight glasses a day” rule, but research suggests that you may actually need more than that. The Institute of Medicine recommends that men drink about 13 cups (three liters) of fluids per day. Women should drink about nine cups (2.2 liters) of fluids per day.\nIf you’re sick or you exercise a lot, you’ll need to drink more.\nWater is the best choice. Drinking a half-cup of fresh-squeezed lemon juice daily raises the citrate levels in your urine, which can help reduce your risk of developing calcium kidney stones. Experts no longer recommend orange juice, as it raises oxalate levels.\nBe cautious with grapefruit juice, apple juice, and cranberry juice. Several studies have linked grapefruit juice to an increased risk of kidney stones, although not all studies agree. Apple and cranberry juice both contain oxalates, which are linked to the development of kidney stones. Cranberry juice may increase your risk for calcium oxalate and uric acid stones. However, it may help prevent the less-common types of stones, such as struvite and brushite stones, and it’s good for overall kidney function. Talk with your doctor about whether consuming these juices is a good idea for you. <img> Limit your intake of sodium. Consuming too much salt can cause kidney stones by increasing the calcium content of your urine. Read nutritional labels carefully and avoid processed foods, which tend to be high in sodium. Use the following sodium guidelines:\nConsume no more than 2,300 mg of sodium daily if you are a healthy young adult. According to the US Department of Agriculture, most Americans eat far more than that recommended allowance, 3,400 mg.\nRestrict your sodium to 1,500 mg per day if you are at least middle-aged or you have certain conditions, such as high blood pressure or diabetes.\nLook for “lower sodium” or “no salt added” labels on canned foods. Canned vegetables and soups often have high levels of salt. Luncheon meat, hot dogs, and frozen prepared meals often have extremely high levels of sodium, so check labels before you buy. <img> Minimize your intake of animal protein. A diet high in animal protein, especially red meats, increases your risk of developing kidney stones, especially uric acid stones. Limiting your animal protein intake to 6 ounces or less per day helps reduce your risk of forming all types of kidney stones.\nRed meats, organ meats, and shellfish are high in a substance called purine, which increases your body’s production of uric acid and can cause kidney stones. Eggs and fish also contain purines, although at a lower level.\nSubstitute some of your animal protein with other rich sources of protein, such as nuts and legumes. <img> Increase your citric acid consumption. Citric acid from fruits acts as a protective factor by coating existing kidney stones, making it difficult for them to increase in size. Your doctor may prescribe medications such as calcium citrate or potassium citrate; these are not dietary sources and work differently.\nLemons and limes are the best source of citric acid. Drinking lemonade or limeade (especially low-sugar varieties) and squeezing lemon or lime juice on foods are excellent ways of increasing your citric acid intake.\nIncreasing your fruit and vegetable intake will help boost your citric acid consumption.\nSome sodas, such as 7UP and Sprite, contain high levels of citric acid. While you should avoid high-sugar beverages, the occasional clear soda may be a good way to increase your citric acid intake. <img> Eat a “low-oxalate” diet. If you have a history of kidney stones made from calcium oxalate, the most common type of kidney stone, avoiding foods that are high in oxalate can help prevent future kidney stones. If you do eat foods that contain oxalates, eat them at the same time as foods that contain calcium. The calcium and oxalate will bind to each other, making them less likely to cause trouble for your kidneys.\nLimit oxalate to 40-50mg daily.\nFoods that are high in oxalate (10mg+ per serving) include nuts, most berries, wheat, figs, grapes, tangerines, beans, beets, carrots, celery, eggplant, kale, leeks, olives, okra, peppers, potatoes, spinach, sweet potato, and zucchini.\nBeverages that contain high levels of oxalate (more than 10mg per serving) include dark beer, black tea, chocolate-based beverages, soy beverages, and instant coffee.\nDon’t over consume vitamin C. Your body may turn high doses — such as those from supplements — into oxalate. <img> Use calcium supplements with caution. The calcium you eat from foods doesn’t affect your risk of developing kidney stones. In fact, diets that are too low in calcium may cause kidney stones to develop for some people. However, calcium supplements may increase the risk of developing kidney stones, so don’t take them unless your doctor has recommended them.\nChildren between four and eight years old should get 1,000 mg of calcium daily. Children nine to 18 years old should get 1,300 mg of calcium daily. Adults 19 and older should get at least 1,000 mg of calcium daily. Women over 50 and men over 70 should increase their intake to 1,200 mg of calcium a day. <img> Eat a high-fiber diet. Studies suggest that fiber-rich foods may help prevent kidney stones. Many high-fiber foods contain phytate, a compound that helps prevent calcium from crystallizing.\nBeans and rice bran are good sources of phytate. While wheat and soybeans also contain phytates, they are also high in oxalate, so it’s recommended that you avoid them unless recommended by your doctor. <img> Watch your alcohol intake. Alcohol increases the level of uric acid in the bloodstream, which can contribute to kidney stones. If you do drink alcohol, choose light-colored beers or wine. These beverages don’t appear to increase your risk of kidney stones.\nDark beers contain oxalate, which can increase kidney stones. <img> " ]	[ [ "d62310b3-07a7-473d-a3cb-8ff4f555bb19", "3c861b02-408a-4cd4-a098-789bddf4bf4c", "1f021b60-885c-464c-94db-f54dcc92cd32", "d8ca86e9-fdda-4b9b-ba6e-ca23bf129ce8", "a8572155-7fe4-4045-956c-1292ccc18a8b" ], [ "884c8db4-d38c-41a2-8d11-3f816634c40a", "039823ec-e4ea-4bc0-a10f-31c04ae85cd4", "067bdbf6-8369-49f6-8aef-7776aff5e602", "6bf3bac1-2f51-42a0-96e4-310f5b3ef6fa", "572a23bb-7c15-4fef-b1c8-57dfef19a759", "6f1b2ca0-e5fd-4792-8281-86020cbb91b0", "57981a73-a56c-4380-9ac0-88c5ea04731f", "52d9de5e-fc84-4162-b891-4f654c264853" ] ]	[ [ "d62310b3-07a7-473d-a3cb-8ff4f555bb19.jpg", "3c861b02-408a-4cd4-a098-789bddf4bf4c.jpg", "1f021b60-885c-464c-94db-f54dcc92cd32.jpg", "d8ca86e9-fdda-4b9b-ba6e-ca23bf129ce8.jpg", "a8572155-7fe4-4045-956c-1292ccc18a8b.jpg" ], [ "884c8db4-d38c-41a2-8d11-3f816634c40a.jpg", "039823ec-e4ea-4bc0-a10f-31c04ae85cd4.jpg", "067bdbf6-8369-49f6-8aef-7776aff5e602.jpg", "6bf3bac1-2f51-42a0-96e4-310f5b3ef6fa.jpg", "572a23bb-7c15-4fef-b1c8-57dfef19a759.jpg", "6f1b2ca0-e5fd-4792-8281-86020cbb91b0.jpg", "57981a73-a56c-4380-9ac0-88c5ea04731f.jpg", "52d9de5e-fc84-4162-b891-4f654c264853.jpg" ] ]
How to Use a Keurig Machine	[ "rYv7cfiDBHh3", "ZVtQ8eoKizbk", "KpphtWISnyAH" ]	[ "Plug the Keurig into a grounded outlet. Before you use your Keurig for the first time, check it over and remove any adhesive tape or protective films. Place the Keurig on your counter and plug it into a grounded outlet.\nGrounded outlets have three holes: two for the live wires that bring power to your appliances and one for a ground wire to prevent dangerous surges. For safety reasons, the Keurig is designed to only plug into grounded outlets. <img> Remove the water reservoir and rinse it with clean water. Depending on your Keurig model, the water reservoir may be located on the side or back of the machine. Remove the lid of the reservoir and set it aside, then lift the reservoir itself up and away from the Keurig. Rinse it with cool, clean water in your sink.\nSome Keurig reservoirs can’t be removed from the machine. If your Keurig has a built-in reservoir, you’ll have to clean it simply by filling it and running water through it. <img> Fill the reservoir with clean water and replace it. Once you’ve rinsed the reservoir a little, fill it with clean water up to the max fill line marked on the side. Put the reservoir back in place and lock it in, then put the lid back on.\nIf the reservoir is built into the Keurig, use a separate container to pour in water up to the fill line. <img> Press the power button to start heating the water. Once the Keurig is set up with water in the reservoir, hit the power button to turn it on. The water should start heating up automatically.\nDepending on your model, your Keurig may display a red “Heating” light while it is warming up. This light will turn off once the machine is done heating.\nIf your model doesn’t have a heating light, wait for the heating sound to stop. <img> Run a brew cycle without using a K-Cup and discard the water. Before brewing your first beverage in the Keurig, you will need to run a cleansing brew. Place a mug on the drip tray, then open and close the K-Cup holder as if you were brewing a beverage. The brewing buttons on the control panel should blink to let you know the machine is ready. Press the “Small Cup” button to start brewing. Let the brew cycle run, then pour out the water in the cup.\nDon’t put a K-Cup pod in the machine when you run the cleaning cycle!\nMake sure you use a cup that’s at least 10 fluid ounces (300 mL) for the cleansing brew process, unless your user manual instructs otherwise.\nOn some models, such as the K-Elite, you will need to press the “Hot Water” button before you select the brewing button. The correct cup size for the cleansing brew cycle may also vary, so check your instructions. <img> ", "Place a mug on the drip tray. Before you brew your first beverage, choose a mug and place it on the drip tray plate. Depending on the model of Keurig you have, you should be able to use a range of mug or cup sizes with your machine.\nFor example, if you have the K-Elite, you can use containers ranging in size from a 4 fl oz (120 mL) cup to a 12 fl oz (350 mL) travel mug.\nTo use a travel mug with some models, you may need to remove the drip tray and put the mug directly on the base for it to fit. <img> Lift the handle of the machine and insert a K-Cup. Select the K-Cup pod of your choice and lift the handle at the top of the machine to access the K-Cup holder. Insert the pod into the holder with the foil-side up.\nDon’t remove the foil from the lid before putting the K-Cup into the machine! The Keurig has built-in needles that pierce the foil during the brewing process. <img> Push the handle down completely to close the lid. Once you insert the K-Cup securely into the holder, push the handle down until the lid is securely closed. Depending on the model you have, you may see the message “Ready to Brew” in the display window.\nIf you’ve just brewed a cup, your Keurig will need a little time to warm up again before you can brew another cup. This generally takes a little less than a minute.\nDouble-check that the reservoir still has water in it before you start brewing! <img> Press the appropriate brew size button and wait for the brewing to finish. When the Keurig is ready to brew, select the brew size button of your choice. On most models, brewing takes about 1 minute.Tip: If you see a message that says “Prime” and nothing comes out of the Keurig machine when you hit the brew buttons, you may need to clean your Keurig.\n\nDepending on your model, you may have options other than cup size to choose from. For example, the K-Elite allows you to select the strength of your coffee and also choose between hot and iced options.\nThe Keurig will let out a loud burst of air to let you know when the brewing process is finished.\nTo protect yourself from being injured by hot water or steam, don’t lift the lid of the K-Cup holder while the Keurig is brewing. <img> ", "Descale your Keurig with white vinegar every 3-6 months. Over time, mineral deposits will build up inside your Keurig. To keep your machine running smoothly, you’ll need to descale it every few months. To do this, fill the reservoir halfway with white vinegar and run several brewing cycles without a K-Cup until the reservoir is empty. Repeat this process with plain water.\nYou can prevent scale buildup by using bottled water instead of hard tap water. Keurig does not recommend using distilled or softened water.\nYou can also purchase a Keurig descaling solution as an alternative to vinegar. Follow the directions on the package if you choose a commercial descaler. While Keurig recommends their own descaling solution, many users find that vinegar works just as well and is less expensive. <img> Wipe down the outside with a damp cloth to clean up grime. The outside of your Keurig may start to build up grime, dirt, and coffee residue after a while. To keep your Keurig looking clean and shiny, dampen a microfiber cloth and put a couple of drops of liquid dish soap on it. Wring out any excess liquid and use the cloth to wipe down the outside of the Keurig.\nYou can also use an all-natural plant-based cleaner for this.\nNever immerse your Keurig in water, since this can damage the electrical components inside.\nYou can also keep the reservoir clean by detaching it and rinsing it occasionally. <img> Empty and rinse the drip tray when it gets full. The drip tray catches excess coffee or water when it drips out of the Keurig during and after brewing. On most models, the tray can hold up to 8 fluid ounces (240 mL) of overflow. When the tray starts to get full or dirty, remove it by pulling it toward you and emptying it into the sink. Clean the tray with a damp, soapy cloth and rinse it with clean water.\nYou can also clean the tray in the top rack of a dishwasher. <img> Take out the K-Cup holder and wash it if it gets dirty. Sometimes the internal components of the Keurig can get dirty or clogged, affecting the machine’s performance or the taste of your coffee. To clean the K-Cup holder, lift the handle and pull up on the holder while pushing on it from beneath at the same time. You can then pull the funnel off of the K-Cup holder and rinse both parts in soap and water.Tip: The entrance needle under the lid may need to be cleaned occasionally as well. To do so, lift the lid and insert a straightened paper clip all the way through the needle. Wiggle it around to dislodge any clogs, then run 2 cleansing brew cycles.\n\nBe careful of the sharp needle inside the K-Cup holder.\nIf your Keurig is clogged, try inserting a straightened paperclip into the underside of the exit needle to clean out any built-up coffee grounds.\nYou can also use a damp cotton swab to clean the area underneath the K-Cup holder. <img> Run a cleansing brew after brewing sticky drinks. If you brew a sticky, sugary drink (such as hot chocolate, apple cider, or a sweet coffee drink), it’s a good idea to flush the Keurig with hot water afterward. Simply run a brewing cycle with plain water immediately after brewing your drink.\nThis will help prevent sugar from crystalizing in your Keurig. <img> " ]	[ [ "8d6a9714-b6b1-40d0-9959-e4ff42d5f36a", "020b4ec7-0495-4b6d-8a15-e1342a434a0b", "8a77975e-dc2f-4537-8b39-b114149a7ea4", "fdb275bc-3b5c-4bfc-aa78-7ba1238357b0", "6bc3a379-b228-4426-b562-8de28fc92375" ], [ "359a862a-7ad1-410d-b2e3-39b8cc5c9edd", "0b6c32f3-7502-4562-980c-867c6e97c9b2", "54c9fdf1-ce49-48e5-8dd8-6a58f00a6590", "357b6f16-e35a-404f-bbcd-673af913bc7b" ], [ "b4b90a2e-d2c7-4fea-a4df-48886c75b2f2", "026c9e13-df2d-4a40-970f-fb21668eee26", "eed613b7-8f2d-4ed0-8479-0506308ceb8b", "115a2795-4628-42cc-b794-00a583eb571a", "01b9e857-9398-4e86-978f-07f88f056be1" ] ]	[ [ "8d6a9714-b6b1-40d0-9959-e4ff42d5f36a.jpg", "020b4ec7-0495-4b6d-8a15-e1342a434a0b.jpg", "8a77975e-dc2f-4537-8b39-b114149a7ea4.jpg", "fdb275bc-3b5c-4bfc-aa78-7ba1238357b0.jpg", "6bc3a379-b228-4426-b562-8de28fc92375.jpg" ], [ "359a862a-7ad1-410d-b2e3-39b8cc5c9edd.jpg", "0b6c32f3-7502-4562-980c-867c6e97c9b2.jpg", "54c9fdf1-ce49-48e5-8dd8-6a58f00a6590.jpg", "357b6f16-e35a-404f-bbcd-673af913bc7b.jpg" ], [ "b4b90a2e-d2c7-4fea-a4df-48886c75b2f2.jpg", "026c9e13-df2d-4a40-970f-fb21668eee26.jpg", "eed613b7-8f2d-4ed0-8479-0506308ceb8b.jpg", "115a2795-4628-42cc-b794-00a583eb571a.jpg", "01b9e857-9398-4e86-978f-07f88f056be1.jpg" ] ]
The Easiest Way to Change a Bathroom Sink Faucet	[ "v3APRRMTzO82", "aFHCPbEdbdc9" ]	[ "Turn off the water supply to your sink. You can typically find the water shutoff valve on the wall behind or underneath your bathroom sink. Turn the valve clockwise to shut off the water to the faucet. After that, turn on your faucets to drain the excess water from the lines.\nYou may have a single water valve for the entire faucet, or you may have two separate valves for hot and cold water. Make sure you turn all of the valves off so no water is running through them.\nIf you have trouble locating the shutoff valve for your bathroom faucet or if the faucet still runs, turn off the main water supply to your home. <img> Put a towel and bucket below the sink’s drain pipe. Clear out the area underneath your sink completely. Lay the towel down so it’s right below the pipes to protect your floor and vanity from water damage. Set a bucket on the towel just below the faucet and drain pipe. <img> Disconnect the P-trap and sink drain (if you’re replacing the drain too). The P-trap is the curved section of pipe underneath your sink connecting the drain to the wall. Unscrew the pipe connections on your P-trap by turning them counterclockwise by hand or with a crescent wrench. Then, unscrew the metal nut on the bottom of your drain to loosen it from the sink. After that, just finish unscrewing the vertical drain pipe and pulling the stopper out from the top of the drain.\nSome new faucet assemblies come with a new stopper and waste pipe, so it’s the perfect opportunity to replace the drain.\nMany faucets are compatible with your existing drain and stopper. If you don’t want to replace the drain, then you don’t need to disconnect the P-trap. Just find the horizontal metal rod coming out from the drain under your sink and disconnect the rod by sliding off the clip. <img> Undo the water supply lines with a basin wrench. A basin wrench has a long handle so you can reach and unscrew the nuts under your bathroom faucet. To use your basin wrench, find the metal water supply lines connecting the valve to your faucet. Secure your basin wrench around the nuts on the bottom of the faucet and turn them counterclockwise until they’re loose. Then finish unscrewing them by hand.\nIf the area under your sink isn’t too cramped, then you can use a regular crescent wrench.\nYou can leave the other ends of the supply lines connected to the valves on your wall.\nWater supply lines may drip water once you disconnect them, so be sure to hold them over the towel and bucket. Wipe up any water that drips onto the bottom of the vanity immediately to prevent damage or warping. <img> Unscrew the lock nuts and washers on your faucet by hand. Your faucet is attached with plastic lock nuts underneath your sink. Since the lock nuts are usually only hand-tight, try turning them counterclockwise to loosen them. If they feel stuck, then just grip them with your wrench to get better leverage. Once they’re loose, pull them off along with the rubber washers underneath them.\nIf you can’t reach the lock nuts, you can easily unscrew them with a basin wrench too.\nIf your faucet nut is stuck or if you have any trouble turning it, try spraying it penetrating oil to cut through the rust. If that still doesn’t work, cut through the nut with a hacksaw. <img> Lift the old faucet out from the sink to remove it. Hold the faucet in both hands and pull it straight out from the mounting holes. If you see a plastic or rubber gasket still stuck on your sink, remove it as well.\nYou can usually recycle an old sink faucet or take it to a metal scrapyard. Contact your area’s recycling service and ask if they’ll accept your faucet. <img> Clean the faucet and drain holes with soapy water and a sponge. There may be some old buildup or sealant underneath your old faucet or where the drain sat in your sink. Wet the area with some soap and water and scrub the holes with a sponge or gentle abrasive pad. Once the area is clean, rinse it well, pat it dry, and let it air-dry completely.\nUse a plastic putty knife to scrape off any stubborn residue on your sink. Avoid using metal putty knives since they could scratch your sink’s finish.\nYour new faucet will create a better waterproof seal if you install it on a clean surface. <img> ", "Choose a new faucet based on the mounting holes on your sink. Before you go to the home or hardware store for a new faucet, look at your basin hole configuration. Your basin will either have 1 or 3 mounting holes. Measure the distance between the holes so that you get the right replacement faucet. You can also use the old faucet as a guide to the new faucet you purchase.\n\nSingle hole faucets have a spout with a single attached handle. They only require 1 hole in your basin, but you can install them in a 3-hole basin if they have a large decorative escutcheon plate.\n\nCenter-set faucets have separate hot and cold handles, but they’re still attached to the main spout. These faucets work great if you have 3 holes in your basin that are close together.\n\nWidespread faucets come in 3 separate pieces and work best if the mounting holes are spaced far apart on your sink.\nTry to get a faucet that matches the finishes and other fixtures that you already have in your bathroom so the styles don’t clash. <img> Align the new faucet and its gasket with the mounting holes. Your faucet will come with a plastic or rubber gasket that helps prevent water from leaking through the mounting holes. Slide the gasket onto the bottom of your faucet. Then, hold the faucet with both hands and carefully set it into the mounting holes.\nYou can apply a bead of silicone caulk around the edge for extra waterproofing, though your gasket will work fine without it. <img> Secure the new faucet to the sink with the washers and lock nuts. Slide the rubber washers onto each of the tailpipes hanging from the new faucet. Then, screw on the plastic lock nuts until they’re hand-tight. Check to make sure that the faucet is straight before giving the nuts a final half-turn with a wrench to tighten them down.\nAvoid tightening the nuts if you feel resistance, or else you could damage your sink or strip the threading. <img> Apply plumber’s tape around the faucet’s threaded connections. Plumber’s tape is designed to lubricate pipe fittings and create a better seal between components to prevent leaks. Apply the plumber’s tape where the supply lines connect to the faucet underneath your sink. Pull the tape tight, and wrap it 1–2 times so it goes in the same direction as the threading.\nIf the ends of your supply lines have rubber gaskets, then you don’t need to use plumber’s tape. <img> Screw the water supply hoses back onto your faucet. Start by tightening the nuts by hand by turning them clockwise on the faucet’s tailpipes. Once you can’t tighten them anymore, use your basin wrench to keep turning the nuts by another quarter-turn until you feel resistance.\nIf you have a center-set or widespread faucet, then each handle will have an additional supply line that connects to the spout. <img> Install the new drain pipe (if your faucet came with one). Put a layer of plumber’s putty around the top of the drain hole and set the new stopper inside. Underneath your sink, slide the rubber gasket and nut onto the drain pipe and tighten it by hand until it’s snug. Then, just screw your P-trap back onto the end of the drain pipe to finish your drain assembly.\nIf the new drain pipe is longer than your old one, you may need to fit and cut the drain pipe down so it fits under your sink. <img> Turn your water supply back on to test your faucet. Once you’ve got everything put back together, turn the shutoff valve counterclockwise. Then turn the handles on your faucet so the water flows through the spout. If you don’t notice any leaks or drips, then you’re finished with your repairs.\nTo fix a leaky faucet handle, try replacing the faucet cartridge.\nIf you see leaks dripping from pipe connections, turn off your water and ensure any plumber’s tape or rubber washers are working properly. Then tighten all the pipe connections and test the water again. <img> " ]	[ [ "e366ce8d-72bb-41dd-8ffb-124ad9222b1b", "f253160b-3beb-4aba-a61a-864d42b43dd3", "5ef20394-2be2-41a9-b852-0d03701f3eb3", "dbb5d6a3-cc32-4d06-ab17-2788e446cf27", "cc2e2cdb-7547-4a4c-ba92-be44b72b49c8", "b71d2fc8-80b3-4ef8-afb8-56151e6ecc63", "f79189e1-9723-41d8-a099-434aadcbb33e" ], [ "b82458d5-3d08-43ad-a592-8f2f909b4ae1", "f54ad690-60d0-4d29-a943-bc568ccbbf18", "24dfd81e-b693-491a-83d3-45b43e5bf9b1", "d02c05d3-ce2e-4662-a496-47dd952f6345", "1f7301e0-dbb8-48af-ab29-d54e30aa25ff", "b0ab6e40-ee52-4d45-91da-bbc2c2ba24ed", "a68dfbef-492b-424c-aaae-56301add1716" ] ]	[ [ "e366ce8d-72bb-41dd-8ffb-124ad9222b1b.jpg", "f253160b-3beb-4aba-a61a-864d42b43dd3.jpg", "5ef20394-2be2-41a9-b852-0d03701f3eb3.jpg", "dbb5d6a3-cc32-4d06-ab17-2788e446cf27.jpg", "cc2e2cdb-7547-4a4c-ba92-be44b72b49c8.jpg", "b71d2fc8-80b3-4ef8-afb8-56151e6ecc63.jpg", "f79189e1-9723-41d8-a099-434aadcbb33e.jpg" ], [ "b82458d5-3d08-43ad-a592-8f2f909b4ae1.jpg", "f54ad690-60d0-4d29-a943-bc568ccbbf18.jpg", "24dfd81e-b693-491a-83d3-45b43e5bf9b1.jpg", "d02c05d3-ce2e-4662-a496-47dd952f6345.jpg", "1f7301e0-dbb8-48af-ab29-d54e30aa25ff.jpg", "b0ab6e40-ee52-4d45-91da-bbc2c2ba24ed.jpg", "a68dfbef-492b-424c-aaae-56301add1716.jpg" ] ]
How to Clean Grease Off Stainless Steel	[ "lMtKU6Kx31GC", "jsudfa9u4e4H", "zIPUm9XWuopR" ]	[ "Mix soap and water. The mixture can be made in the sink while you're washing dishes. Simply mix a squirt of liquid dish detergent with some water until you have a bubbly cleaner. The soapy water won't harm stainless steel surfaces or appliances.\nCommercial products such as Barkeeper's Friend, Cerama Bryte, Sprayaway, and Weiman are also non-abrasive cleaners that work well on stainless steel. <img> Dip a soft washcloth into the soapy water. Pick up the soapy water using the cloth. A sponge can be used instead as long as it isn't an abrasive scrubber. Any abrasive scrubber can end up scratching the steel. <img> Wipe the steel surface in the direction of the grain. Look closely at the stainless steel. You'll notice that its particles form lines going in a certain direction. For example, your steel object will have lines going up and down or left and right. Move the cloth along those lines.\nWhen using soft cloths and soapy water, you aren't likely to scratch the surface if you make a mistake, but it's a good idea to always try to clean stainless steel along the grain. <img> Rinse the same cloth with water. After soaping up the stainless steel, place the same cloth you used under the faucet. Run warm water over it to clear off the soap. <img> Wash the soap off the steel. Take the rinsed cloth and wipe it over the surface of the stainless steel to remove the soap. Remember to wipe along the grain. <img> Dry the surface with a fresh cloth. A clean, soft cloth such as a terrycloth towel will do. Wipe it along the grain to remove the moisture and prevent water stains. <img> ", "Mix a mild detergent in hot water. Empty the sink or get a clean bowl. Fill it with hot water, then add a squirt of a liquid detergent. Mix in the detergent to create soapy water.\nMild detergents are those such as Palmolive and Dawn that don't have abrasive qualities. <img> Dip a nylon scrub brush into the mixture. A nylon brush for dish cleaning is soft enough to avoid scratching the steel. Dip it into the soapy water.\nIf you are worried about the brush scratching the steel, you can try to apply the cleaner using a soft cloth, sponge, or non-scratch scouring pad such as a Scotch-Brite. <img> Scrub the greasy surface. Again, remember to take a close look at the surface of your stainless steel. If you can see the grain forming lines, scrub along those lines. This keeps the brush from scratching the steel. <img> Rinse the scrubbed surface. Place the appliance under warm running water if possible or use a soft cloth. The scrub brush will dislodge the grease, and the water will rinse away the grease and soap. Use the cloth to wipe along the grain and remove the soap. <img> Dry the surface with a towel. Use a clean, soft cloth and move it along the grain. Make sure you remove all the moisture so that the stainless steel doesn't get a water stain. <img> ", "Mix baking soda and water. In a bowl, combine equal parts baking soda and water. Mix the two together until they form a paste. <img> Rest the mixture on the stained area for 15 minutes. Apply the baking soda mixture by spreading it with a spoon or soft cloth without scrubbing it into the steel. Come back after 15 minutes. <img> Scrub the stain using a nylon brush. An old toothbrush will suffice if you don't have a nylon brush. Remember the orientation of the steel's grain and scrub back and forth along it. <img> Rinse off the surface. Place the stainless steel under warm, running water if possible or use a damp cloth to remove the baking soda cleaner. Check to see if the stain has gone away. <img> Pour vinegar over the stain. If the stain persists, pour vinegar straight from the bottle. Vinegar is acidic and can help remove the stain, so use the undiluted variety for the best results.\nWhen working with pots and pans, you can also try adding a half a cup of water and a sprinkle of baking soda to the vinegar before heating the mixture to a simmer on the stove for 20 minutes. <img> Scrub the stain again. Use your nylon brush or old toothbrush to move along the grain. Be gentle to avoid causing scratches. <img> Rinse off the vinegar.

How to Baste a Chicken	[ "ZDy0X6WlCKLD", "H2gl9iEsUh1N", "kYz4pYgZrJHr" ]	[ "Follow your favorite roast chicken recipe until it's time to roast. Place the chicken in the oven at the temperature called for by your recipe. It’s best to roast your bird in a roasting pan rather than on a baking sheet, since its juices may spill onto the floor of the oven.\nIf your recipe calls for roasting vegetables in the same pan as the chicken, roast them in a separate pan so they don’t get overcooked by the basting liquid.\nChickens will typically take 20 minutes per pound (0.45 kg) plus an additional 15 minutes of total roasting time to cook through. The chicken is ready when the internal temperature reaches at least 165° F (74° C) with a meat thermometer. <img> Melt 1 stick of butter (1/2 cup or 110 g) in the microwave. Unwrap 1 stick of butter (1/2 cup or 110 g) and place it in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat the butter in 15-second intervals until it is fully melted. Because it takes a little time for your chicken to begin rendering its own fat into the pan, you will baste with just butter to begin with. <img> Remove your roasting pan from the oven 30 minutes into the roast. Set your pan on a heat-safe surface, such as the top of the stove. Close the oven door to make sure the oven stays hot. Have your melted butter and a turkey baster nearby. <img> Perform your first baste. Being careful near the hot roasting pan, squeeze the bulb of the baster while the tip is submerged in the melted butter. Gently release the pressure on the bulb, which will draw warm butter up into the baster. Gently squeeze the bulb over the chicken to coat it in melted butter.\nDraw up more butter from your bowl as necessary to coat the chicken. If you have a very large chicken, you can melt a little more butter as needed to fully coat your bird.\nWork quickly (but carefully!) so the chicken is not out of the oven for more than a minute or two. Taking too long to baste will cool your chicken and add additional cooking time. <img> Place the hot roasting pan back in the oven. Wear oven mitts to protect your hands as you place the roasting pan back in the oven. Set a timer for 30 minutes. <img> Perform the second baste when the timer goes off. After removing your chicken from the oven, dip the tip of the baster into the rendered chicken fat at the bottom of the roasting pan. Suck this liquid up into the baster, and use it to coat the chicken completely. Repeat as necessary.\nAfter coating, place the chicken back in the oven.\nBe careful not to touch the tube of the baster when it is full of hot liquid. You can burn yourself. <img> Baste the chicken every 30 minutes until it is fully cooked. When you think your chicken is done, use an ovenproof meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of your chicken. Place the thermometer tip in the thigh, which usually takes the longest to cook. The chicken is ready when the internal temperature reaches 165° F (74° C).\nIf you are basting chicken parts in the oven rather than a whole chicken, baste every 15-20 minutes rather than every 30 minutes. <img> Remove your chicken from the oven. When your chicken has reached the right temperature, tent the chicken in foil and let it rest for 10 minutes in the roasting pan. Move it to a cutting board with kitchen tongs. Carve the chicken and serve. <img> ", "Use a basting brush. Try using a basting brush to coat your chicken instead of a turkey baster. Dip the bristles of the brush into your melted butter or rendered fat and paint the chicken with the liquid, coating it completely. Perform the baste every 30 minutes.\nMake sure your basting brush has bristles made of a heat-safe material, such as silicone. If it doesn’t, it may be a pastry brush, which is not meant to be used at high heat. <img> Place butter underneath the chicken’s skin. Using your hands, break a stick of cold butter into coin-size pieces and deposit them evenly over the chicken between the skin and the muscle. You may need to gently pull the skin away from the chicken to create space for your hand to fit.\nThis one-time baste method slowly melts the butter over the chicken as it roasts. You don’t need to remove the chicken from the oven to perform any touch-ups. The butter bastes the chicken continuously.\nFor additional flavor while cooking, you can add spices or chopped herbs to your butter before adding it to the chicken. <img> Use a buttery cheesecloth to cover your chicken. Soak a layer of cheesecloth in melted butter, and lay it over your prepped chicken. Place the cheesecloth-covered chicken in the oven. As the chicken roasts, the butter in the cheesecloth will drip over the chicken, basting it and creating a golden skin.\nRoast your chicken for the amount of time your recipe indicates. There is no need to open the oven to re-baste. The cheesecloth will do the work for you.\nRemove and discard the layer of cheesecloth before serving your chicken. <img> Roast your chicken breast-side down. Start your chicken breast-side down and then, halfway through the roasting time, flip it breast-side up. Roast it the rest of the time in the oven as your recipe directs.\nKitchen tongs can help you flip your hot chicken without hurting yourself. Always take care around the hot pan!\nStarting the chicken breast-side down enables the fat-rich dark meat in the thighs and legs to drip down over the leaner meat, basting it. <img> ", "Heat the grill. Use a clean grill and bring it to the desired heat for your recipe. You can use either a charcoal or gas grill to baste your chicken.\nBasting on the grill is about adding flavor thorough periodic brushing with a marinade rather than a fat.\nBrushing your chicken with a fat, such as butter, over an open flame is not advised and may be a fire hazard. <img> Use chicken parts instead of a whole chicken. Choose chicken thighs, breasts, wings, or drumsticks, which cook more quickly than a whole bird. You can marinate your chicken pieces for additional flavor before grilling. <img> Place your chicken on the grill skin-side down with tongs. If your marinade is high in sugar, place the chicken towards the outer rim of the grill to start. This will keep the sugar from burning during cooking. Replace the lid of the grill, and let the chicken cook for 3 minutes. <img> Baste the chicken. Remove the lid of the grill, and use tongs to turn the pieces of chicken, so that they are now grill-side up. Use a silicone brush to coat the chicken pieces with a light coat of marinade. Replace the lid and cook for 5 more minutes.\nOnly use marinade that has not been in contact with raw poultry to baste the meat. You can reserve some marinade to baste before marinating the chicken. <img> Baste the chicken every 5 minutes until it is cooked. Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the chicken. The chicken is ready when the internal temperature reaches at least 165° F (74° C)..\nIf you’re grilling chicken pieces of varying sizes, take the temperature in a chicken thigh, which will often take the longest to cook. <img> Remove the chicken from the grill. Use tongs to move your cooked chicken onto a clean plate. Tent the pieces in foil, and let them rest for 5 minutes. Dinner is served. <img> " ]	[ [ "8bbc7fc4-ebe3-44a8-974d-5490c6681b9f", "7d61447b-ba15-4a63-a90f-824e024cfd17", "71bdb5df-f732-47ca-bb0f-a29e053a6b25", "da0018cc-b642-4774-9eea-b202a66f6dc5", "bb374106-34df-4142-9fb7-d2762a62009b", "6dda89c7-6e80-4577-b288-231b305c138e", "d43ea9b0-748b-4b0f-91f7-ec5ad0b8ead9", "cb97effa-c628-4b4b-82cb-c6f8aad0b962" ], [ "01fcefe2-1ac8-43a4-80f1-5f38611bcae9", "e7a6f28c-2b65-4c57-9096-b7ffd5e68459", "59fcc145-7204-49f1-92f4-1fde858f70d4", "c3d70fa3-61d7-4b4d-8b05-daf1f7046a57" ], [ "aa1f7530-61e1-420b-80d0-dca860f94887", "a2b31f66-07ab-4ad0-aaba-6f1be028e3d6", "26348dc0-fbf9-40ff-8c10-e4ce82d0c29b", "c15bbea9-4e5a-4512-be6b-f4287edb6190", "b8d24905-b2b4-41e2-90ce-b7c71ac6ff8e", "80dc3f48-dd3b-45b9-95f5-f6ee70f3e891" ] ]	[ [ "8bbc7fc4-ebe3-44a8-974d-5490c6681b9f.jpg", "7d61447b-ba15-4a63-a90f-824e024cfd17.jpg", "71bdb5df-f732-47ca-bb0f-a29e053a6b25.jpg", "da0018cc-b642-4774-9eea-b202a66f6dc5.jpg", "bb374106-34df-4142-9fb7-d2762a62009b.jpg", "6dda89c7-6e80-4577-b288-231b305c138e.jpg", "d43ea9b0-748b-4b0f-91f7-ec5ad0b8ead9.jpg", "cb97effa-c628-4b4b-82cb-c6f8aad0b962.jpg" ], [ "01fcefe2-1ac8-43a4-80f1-5f38611bcae9.jpg", "e7a6f28c-2b65-4c57-9096-b7ffd5e68459.jpg", "59fcc145-7204-49f1-92f4-1fde858f70d4.jpg", "c3d70fa3-61d7-4b4d-8b05-daf1f7046a57.jpg" ], [ "aa1f7530-61e1-420b-80d0-dca860f94887.jpg", "a2b31f66-07ab-4ad0-aaba-6f1be028e3d6.jpg", "26348dc0-fbf9-40ff-8c10-e4ce82d0c29b.jpg", "c15bbea9-4e5a-4512-be6b-f4287edb6190.jpg", "b8d24905-b2b4-41e2-90ce-b7c71ac6ff8e.jpg", "80dc3f48-dd3b-45b9-95f5-f6ee70f3e891.jpg" ] ]
How to Put Charcoal Out	[ "G1Vu06afduhy", "eRR7MSMH4rIL" ]	[ "Close the grill or fire pit for 48 hours. Wear heat-proof gloves while handling your grill to protect your hands from getting burned. Close the lid and any vents your grill has to prevent any air from getting to the coals. For a fire pit, place the lid over the opening. This will cause the fire to burn itself out.\nShut your grill down right away after cooking. Charcoal takes a long time to cool down and it can be dangerous to leave it open.\nDo not pour water on your grill to cool it down faster. The dramatic change in temperature can cause your grill to crack, and the water will mix with the ashes and harden, making it much more difficult to clean out. <img> Remove cool ashes and briquettes from the grill or fire pit. Use a pair of tongs to take out the briquettes or large chunks of charcoal. Then use an ash removal bucket to scoop out most of the ashes.\nSome grills will cool down within 24-36 hours. However, since it can be hard to tell if the coals are still burning, it's safest to wait a full 48 hours.\nAll-wood charcoal typically takes longer to cool down. Charcoal briquettes can cool down in 24 hours.\nCoals aren't fully out until they are cool to the touch. <img> Sweep the remaining ashes out with a metal spatula. To get the rest of the ashes out of the grill or fire pit, use a metal spatula to scrape them into a bucket. Clean out the inside of the grill or fire pit thoroughly by scrubbing it with a wire brush. Spend extra time cleaning the area around the vents of a grill, since ash can build up there.\nTo keep your grill in good working condition, use a silicone spray to lubricate the vents. <img> Use a pair of tongs to return the largest pieces of charcoal to the grill or fire pit. Next time you use your grill or fire pit, you can light the leftover briquettes to get the fire going faster. Put them into the bottom part of the grill or pit to store them. Large pieces of all-wood charcoal are best to save since charcoal briquettes are typically spent after cooking with them once.\nCharcoal can still be hot, even after 48 hours of cooling, so be sure to use tongs to handle them. <img> Wrap ashes and charcoal in aluminum foil to dispose of them. Don't throw any ashes or charcoal directly into the trash. Even a small spark can cause your trash to catch on fire if a piece of charcoal is still burning. Make sure the charcoal and ashes are completely wrapped up in the aluminum.\nIt's safest to use metal to wrap the ashes. Hot ashes can melt or burn plastic and paper. <img> ", "Take the coals out of the grill or fire pit with a pair of metal tongs. The charcoal will still be very hot when you take it out, so it's important to use steel grilling tongs to handle it. Wear heat-proof gloves for extra protection.\nThis is a good way to cool down charcoal faster if you live in a fire-prone area or if you are using a public grill. <img> Douse the coals in a metal bucket of cold water. Transfer the hot coals immediately to a bucket of cold water to put them out. Use a metal bucket, since the heat from the coals can cause plastic to melt.\nDon't dump any water on a grill since this can cause damage and make the grill harder to clean. <img> Leave the charcoal out in the sun to dry for 2 days if you want to reuse it. If you want to reuse the charcoal the next time you grill, it needs to completely dry out and cool down. Remove the charcoal from the water using metal tongs. Leave it on a non-flammable surface in the sun, such as pavement, until it is cool and dry to the touch.\nThis is most effective for wood charcoal rather than briquettes. Briquettes are usually spent after cooking with them once.\nThe charcoal may take slightly longer or shorter to dry out. Check that it is completely dry before putting it away.\nCharcoal can stain the surface it sits on while drying. Keep this in mind and avoid porches, patios, and decks to preserve their color. <img> Scrape the ashes into aluminum foil. Keep the ashes separate from the charcoal. The heat from the ashes can cause the charcoal to reignite and start burning again. Wrap up the ashes in the foil to dispose of them.\nMake sure the ashes are completely covered up before throwing them away. <img> Store the charcoal until you are ready to reuse it. Store the charcoal in a fireproof container such as a metal lockbox or a metal bucket with a lid. You can also store it directly in the grill and simply add more charcoal when you're ready to use it.\nWhen you are ready to use the charcoal, supplement it with new charcoal. On its own, used charcoal won't burn hot or long enough to cook with. <img> " ]	[ [ "b61b9a3f-25c9-49b8-b936-1a2eb914ef91", "a50a6593-3724-4b89-a293-aa0385668399", "e2f195cd-cc14-4afb-9dd7-83796d405d9e", "188ca675-ec38-4b91-90a4-12b1f2ad5319", "e540e00e-80c6-424d-ad05-8df08501a82c" ], [ "e4505348-93f3-47fc-a4eb-59a0fa350b75", "63a1eb4c-0552-47fe-814e-cd4772d16469", "9eaada88-8bcf-4e94-92be-b44004b445b6", "b654c6ad-a526-4eb8-9502-49588d412029", "e8b2623b-f4e2-4b28-a87e-79ab92d7d90f" ] ]	[ [ "b61b9a3f-25c9-49b8-b936-1a2eb914ef91.jpg", "a50a6593-3724-4b89-a293-aa0385668399.jpg", "e2f195cd-cc14-4afb-9dd7-83796d405d9e.jpg", "188ca675-ec38-4b91-90a4-12b1f2ad5319.jpg", "e540e00e-80c6-424d-ad05-8df08501a82c.jpg" ], [ "e4505348-93f3-47fc-a4eb-59a0fa350b75.jpg", "63a1eb4c-0552-47fe-814e-cd4772d16469.jpg", "9eaada88-8bcf-4e94-92be-b44004b445b6.jpg", "b654c6ad-a526-4eb8-9502-49588d412029.jpg", "e8b2623b-f4e2-4b28-a87e-79ab92d7d90f.jpg" ] ]

How to Fold Clothes Fast	[ "pbgUrHT9oWFb", "KbSIoxgAmI8x", "7ckGWBqAstFL", "HIIwpi2G9bt6", "ZeR9F9EoNuFW" ]	[ "Start by putting all of your clothes laid out or in a pile to get started. After pulling clothes out of the dryer, pile the clothes on your bed so you can easily get to them and fold them one by one. <img> Have a space cleared so you can fold them well. You'll need a space on your bed big enough to lay pants out flat. This way there's plenty of room to fold each pair of pants properly. <img> Now that you have a space cleared, take a shirt from the pile. To fold a T-shirt, lay it flat with the front side facing up. Have the shirt facing left and right, with the right side of the shirt pointing towards you, <img> Pinch the shirt at the middle and the top. First, pinch the shirt near the collar, on its right side, in-between the sleeve seam and the collar, with your left hand. Then with your right hand, pinch a point in middle of the shirt horizontally across from where you left hand is.\nTo reiterate, you should have your left hand pinching near the collar, and your right hand pinching the middle of the shirt, halfway between the top and bottom, a few inches away from the side seam. <img> Pinch the bottom of the shirt. Swing your left hand under your right arm, still tightly holding the top of the shirt. Pinch the bottom of the shirt, a few inches away from the side seam, so that your left hand is now pinching both the top and bottom of the shirt.\nAt first, this movement might take some practice to get right. Eventually, you'll be able to it quickly and seamlessly. <img> Finish the fold. Uncross your arms by swinging your left hand back to its original position. Make sure you're holding both points on the shirt tightly with your hands. As you uncross your arms, lift the shirt slightly with both hands. After your arm are uncrossed, lie the shirt on top of the left side so that it's folded on itself.\nThis method, when done at full speed, takes no longer than three seconds to complete. You'll want to practice at a slow speed, making sure to get each step right. Once you've got it down, do each movement swiftly, and you'll be folding fast in no time.\nThis type of folding comes handy when you want to fold T-shirts for travel as it keeps the garment flat when folded and allows you to fold quite a few shirts in a very short time. <img> ", "Start by putting all of your clothes laid out or in a pile to get started.

Make the shirt a little shorter by folding about six inches of the bottom up the shirt. Then fold the whole thing in half so that the bottom meets the top.\nThis method has exactly six folds, and with enough practice, these six folds can be performed in a matter of seconds. Try to get the movements down fast enough that you can grab shirts one after another, fold the sleeves, and fold the whole thing in half, quickly and smoothly. <img> ", "Gather all of your socks in a pile. To speed up your folding process, get all your socks within reaching distance, in one convenient pile. This will prevent the awkward step of searching for socks in the pile of the rest of your laundry while you're folding. <img> Quickly separate your socks into pairs. Now that you've got all your socks in a big pile, sort through them. Just grab all the socks and throw the pairs on top of each other, giving your sock pile some order. <img> Grab a pair of socks. Take one pair of socks from the pile. Lay them on top of each other on an empty area of the bed, in front of you. <img> Perform the ball fold. With one of the socks lying on top of the other, grab both socks, held together, at the top by the openings. Then just pull one of the socks inside out, so that the side of the sock that is touching the other sock wraps around the other sock. Pull the sock opening all the way down the two socks.\nNot only does this folding method only have one basic step, making it very quick, it also prevents stretching and allows the socks to maintain their shape. <img> ", "Start by putting all of your clothes laid out or in a pile to get started.

How to Play the French Horn	[ "iRTG0RTM8BT8", "S70ASuS3vEaB", "ttc49ApO8zMp", "seGhuOkIhr13" ]	[ "Learn the proper way to hold the horn. As with any instrument, there is a proper way to hold your French horn in order to get the best sound possible. Place the index, middle, and ring fingers on the three keys. If you have a double horn, place your thumb on the trigger key, then wrap your pinky around the ring below the third key. Next, you want to work on your right hand positioning.\nSit up in a chair with your back straight so that you can breathe into the horn without obstruction. You usually want to sit on the edge of the chair to prevent slouching.\nHold the horn at a 45-degree angle with the mouthpiece toward your face. Cup your hand and place your left thumb on the thumb key. Put your left index, middle, and ring fingers on the three keys on top. Your left pinkie should be through the pinkie ring, and your right hand inside the bell.\nNow that your fingers are in place, bring the horn up so that the mouthpiece is against your lips. <img> Form an embouchure with your lips. To blow into the mouthpiece, you have to first learn how to purse your lips. This is called, “embouchure.”\nPractice saying, “mmmm” with your mouth, slowly adding pressure between your lips. Your lips should form a frown. However, make sure to keep your face relatively relaxed, as tensing your face too much can cause you to tire more easily.\nThe corners of your mouth should stay in place, almost as if you’re puckering your lips.\nIt’s a good idea to practice in front of a mirror to make sure you’re getting your form right. <img> Blow into the horn. Without pressing any of the valves, you can use the embouchure technique to blow into the mouthpiece of the horn.\nYou want to blow into the horn using fast, quick blows that come from your diaphragm, not your chest. Try to take in deep breaths before blowing.\nMake sure you’re not pressing your mouth into the mouthpiece too hard. If your teeth hurt or a ring appears on your lips, you’re pressing too hard. You want a relaxed tension against the mouthpiece when you blow into it.\nIf there isn't any sound coming out, make sure you're putting enough air through the horn. <img> Memorize the keys. It will make your life a lot easier to learn exactly where the keys are so that your fingers know where to go when you’re playing.\nThrough repeated playing, muscle memory builds, so your fingers know where the keys are.\nPractices pressing the keys, knowing which keys you’re pressing. Do this until you can pass a test of accuracy.\nIt can help to have a fingering chart while you practice. <img> Learn how to control volume. The volume of the notes you play will depend on how much air you blow into the horn. The more air you blow, the louder the note will sound (and vice versa). Techniques that can help with controlling the amount of air you use is by thinking about keeping your teeth about a pinkie's width apart from each other. <img> ", "Learn how to read sheet music. To be a good French horn player, you’ll want to learn how to Read Music.\nSheet music is the basis of many musical performances. You can also learn by ear, but most songs are played from sheet music.\nLearning sheet music gives you a deeper understanding of how your instrument works, as well as music theory. <img> Learn the notes you’re playing. The most basic thing you’ll learn first is the order of the notes and how they’re placed on a music staff. Secondary to this is knowing how each of the notes feels on your face and to the amount of air you're using, not necessarily what they sound like.\nMany parts go into the relationship between notes and the staff. That's why this piece is so fundamental. <img> Understand the clefs. Once you’ve memorized the notes, the next step is to understand how the clefs work.\nThere are two main clefs that can show up on a music staff. The treble clef notates the higher pitches of music, and the bass clef notates the lower pitches. <img> Recognize the tempo. Sheet music notates how fast or slow a song is by the tempo. It’s usually notated at the top of the sheet using a BPM (beats per minute) measurement. <img> Play a simple melody. Once you have a pretty good understanding of the basics of sheet music, try playing a simple melody. Pick something that only has a few notes and practice until you’ve mastered it. <img> Play more complex melodies. Eventually, you can practice playing more complex melodies. This will help you play your instrument better and help you become better at reading sheet music.\nPick music that has a variety of note structures, clefs, and tempos. <img> ", "Play standing up. Now that you can hold your instrument and play sitting down, it’s time to play standing up. A French horn weighs about 4 pounds. There won’t be many times when you’ll need to play standing up, but recitals are a common one.\nSince your right hand is in the bell anyway, just slide it up to the top of the bell so that it’s resting on your hand. All your other hand placements stay the same.\nYou can buy small modification pieces that help hold up the horn easier. <img> Learn advanced techniques. Once you’ve mastered the basics you’re ready to learn more advanced playing techniques. It can be helpful to recruit a tutor or advanced player for these skills.\nMuting (or stopping) the horn creates a high-pitched sound from the bell. You can stop the horn by moving your hand further into the bell until it’s in all the way. Twist it until little or no air can get out.\nSlurring notes are playing two notes without stopping or releasing between. To do this you’ll continue to change the notes on your keys but your airflow remains constant and steady.\nPlaying glissando is starting and ending on specific notes while playing as many notes between as you can. <img> Get lessons. Lessons are a great way to learn advanced skills and get feedback on your progress. You can hire private tutors or join group classes. Some classes will play at events, giving you an opportunity to show off your new chops. <img> Watch tutorial videos. You can find a lot of useful tutorial videos online. Some of them will teach you to play using sheet music, and some will teach you to play by ear. If you search, you should find what you’re looking for. <img> Practice, practice, practice. The most effective way to become a better horn player is to practice. Make time to play your horn on a regular basis. Create challenges for yourself by upping the ante on songs you play.\nYou can get books of sheet music that have a variety of songs with different levels of difficulty.\nTutor books sometimes include training schedules, often with lessons on reading sheet music. <img> Ask questions. Don’t be afraid to ask questions when you get stuck or aren’t sure how to do something. There are lots of places you can go to get your questions answered.\nYou can consult tutors, French horn websites, video comment threads, and forums. <img> ", "Store your horn in a sturdy case. When you’re not playing your horn, store it in a padded case. Most cases have a hard shell to protect it from damage. <img> Clean the instrument after you play it. Each time you play your horn you should clean it. This will prolong the life of the instrument.\nPolish it using a polishing cloth. If it’s dirty, you can apply polishing gauze with a cloth.\nLet the interior of the instrument dry. Remove the valve slides and dry those while the rest of the body is drying. <img> Conduct maintenance once a week or so. Every week or two you’ll want to conduct routine maintenance on your instrument to make sure it stays in good condition for as long as possible.\nClean the mouthpiece with dish soap and water. It might also be helpful to use a mouthpiece brush, which you can find at most music stores.\nOil the rotors and valves. Remove the valve caps and apply key oil or rotor oil to the pivot points and bearing shaft. You’ll know the keys need to be oiled if they stick.\nApply slide grease to the tuning slides. Remove them, put the grease on them, and replace them. <img> Clean your instrument thoroughly every few months. Every once in a while, you should do a full cleanse on your horn. That means flushing out the entire instrument with soap and water. Use a brush to clean the tuning slides.\nIf you want to take special care you can use brass soap to clean the horn.\nMake sure you apply grease to the tuning slides before putting them back on the body of the horn. <img> Repair any broken pieces. If anything on your horn breaks, take it to a shop and get it repaired.

How to Look Your Best	[ "rk6OrRAECn2x", "bLkI1aTMJBVs", "VIKpmjdbhb9B" ]	[ "Think about your favorite features. Maybe you have sunset-hued hair that cascades down your back. Maybe your eyes are a deep, coffee-brown color. Maybe you have elegant collar bones, strong, sturdy thighs or set of wide, quarterback-caliber shoulders. Whatever it is, don't be afraid to play it up! When you shop for clothes, choose your hairstyle, and pick out colors to wear, think about how you can make your favorite features stand out.\nThe change you make can be small, like buying more v-necks to reveal your pretty neck, or putting your baseball hats away to show off your high, handsome forehead.\nOn the other side of the coin, you can downplay features you don't want to show off. Don't get too carried away with this, though - it'll be obvious you're trying to hide something. Instead, focus on the features you're proud to accentuate. <img> Show off your hair. Hair is one of the first things people notice about each other, so looking your best means finding a style and hair care routine that makes your hair look great. No matter what your hair color, texture and length, there's a style out there that will bring out its beauty. To find that look that works best for you, try the following:\n\n Find a haircut that works for your face shape. For example, longer, layered looks look great with oval-shaped faces, while pixie cuts are pretty on rounder faces.\n\nCare for your hair in a way that keeps it healthy. Dyeing it too much, using glue-in weaves, chemical straightening and other treatments can damage your hair, making it look dry, dull or limp.\n\nStyle your hair every day before you go out, even if it just means combing it and adding some pomade or gel. If you're going to a fancy event, take the time to wash, dry and style it well.\n\nIf you have facial hair, keep it neat and trimmed, whether you have a full beard or long sideburns.\n\nIf you're losing hair, there are a number of methods you can try to make it thicker. However, don't feel like you have to cover it up with a combover or cap. Getting regular trims and washing your hair regularly will keep you looking nice. Own your hair, no matter what it looks like! <img> Play up your eyes. Your eyes are an important feature to think about when you're getting ready for your day - after all, everyone you talk to is going to have the opportunity to look at them closely. Making your eyes look great starts with getting a good night's sleep, but there are a few things you should do in the morning to make sure they look bright and attractive:\nMoisturize the area around your eyes. Use a cream to moisturize your eyelids, under your eyes, and in the creases near your temples. You can use a moisturizer every night before going to sleep, too.\nKeep your eyebrows neat. Use a tweezers to shape your eyebrows, or go to a salon to get them waxed or threaded. This will bring out the best in your eye shape.\n\n Take care of undereye circles by applying cool cucumber slices or teabags for 5 minutes.\nWear eye makeup if you'd like. Eyeliner, eye shadow, and mascara work together to make your eyes look bigger and brighter. <img> Smile more often. Wearing a genuine smile will truly capture people's attention. If you tend to walk around looking solemn, you'll give people the impression you're closed off, and they'll look away. Plus, frowning creates wrinkles and doesn't give your facial features the chance to shine. Having an easy smile is a simple way to make yourself look better every day.\nIf there's anything preventing you from wanting to smile more, take measures to change it. For example, if you're self-conscious about your teeth, have them straightened or whitened.\nBrushing your teeth every morning before you go out will help your smile look bright and attractive.\nCondition your lips with chapstick so you won't hesitate to smile wide. You might also consider using a lip scrub to exfoliate your lips if they tend to get dry and flaky. <img> Have beautiful posture. Improving your posture is an easy fix that will make a huge difference in your appearance right away. If you tend to hunch a little bit, make a conscious effort to stand up straight. Throw your shoulders back and keep your head erect. When you're seated, don't slouch in your chair. No matter what type of figure you have, you'll look better if your posture is upright and elegant.\nImproving your posture takes some practice. You'll have to consciously stand up straight and sit erect for weeks before it comes naturally. It can help to stretch and do light exercises each day. <img> Wear clothes that fit. This is an important way to look your best, but it eludes a great number of people. You may aspire to fit into a size that's a little too small, or perhaps you drape yourself in fabric in order to hide something you don't particularly want to show off. Either approach to wearing clothes results in a distorted look. Put your best foot forward by choosing clothes that are the correct size for you. Believe it or not, you will look a lot better!\n\n Wearing a bra that fits well can drastically change your appearance. Spring for a great bra and you'll notice the difference.\nShapewear only goes so far to smooth out your curves. The better approach is to choose clothing that fits well, rather than trying to squeeze into a size too small. <img> Don't feel like you have to cover up. Do you love wearing shorts in the summer, but you're embarrassed to expose your thighs? Wear them anyway! Wear sleeveless shirts, take off the bulky sweatshirt, and put on strappy sandals when you feel like it, no matter your body shape. If you're covering yourself up when you wish you could wear something less confining, it will show in your demeanor. Unless you want to do this for personal reasons, there's no reason you can't bare as much skin as you want, no matter your size or shape.\nThat said, don't bare too much skin in venues where it's inappropriate. You wouldn't want to show up in a short cocktail dress when everyone else is wearing formal floor-length gowns, or wear a sleeveless shirt to a nice event where others are wearing collared button-downs. <img> ", "Experiment with different styles. Your style should start with what feels good to wear, be it high heels and pearls or a t-shirt and shorts. Work on figuring out what style of clothing makes you feel the most like yourself, and the most confident presenting yourself to other people. It doesn't matter what your style is; as long as its an expression of your personality, you'll be able to rock it.\nIf you've always worn a black hoodie and jeans, and you're not sure how to branch out, start by changing up one piece at a time. Wear a neatly ironed collared top instead of a sweatshirt one day. Does it make you feel good? Do you feel like yourself in it? If not, try a different style next time. Keep changing it up until you start getting a feel for what you like.\nSwapping clothes with a stylish friend can be a helpful way to experiment without shelling out too much money. Also consider shopping at thrift stores, where there's a huge selection of a range of different styles. <img> Find a style icon. It can really help to have good examples of the type of people wearing the clothing and hairstyles you like. Is there a celebrity or other public figure whose style is particularly attractive to you? Once you have a few people in mind, pay attention to how their wardrobes are built. What colors and fabrics do they tend to rely on? How is their clothing usually cut? What accessories do they wear most often? When you have a clear picture, you can start incorporating similar pieces into your wardrobe and trying them out for yourself.\nStyle blogs are filled with pictures of people trying out different outfits. Find a few bloggers who have taste similar to yours and following along - they'll often give details about where their clothes come from. The great thing about blogs is that they're created by people of all backgrounds, shapes and sizes, so unlike fashion magazines, they reflect reality. That's a lot more helpful when it comes to figuring out what might work for your particular features. <img> Wear colors that accent your complexion. Do you lean toward cool tones or warm tones? Do you love black and white or prefer muted earth colors? Preferences aside, knowing what looks great with your particular complexion can help you look more beautiful. As a general rule, try to choose colors that don't exactly match your skin - contrast is good!\nIf your skin is dark, choose warm-toned pastels, bright colors and rich, deep colors like copper and gold.\nIf your skin is medium, choose jewel colors or shades of blue or red, and steer clear of brown or tan colors.\nIf your skin is olive, go with pink, red, green or brown to bring out the best in your skin.\nIf your skin is fair, peach, strawberry, navy and dark green will all help accent your rosy hue. <img> Don't be afraid to stand out from the crowd. It's also OK to throw style rules out the window and just wear whatever you want - as long as you feel comfortable in it. Maybe you've heard that tall people shouldn't wear high heels - so what? If you like them, wear them. Or on the other end of the spectrum, it's commonly said that shorter people shouldn't wear maxi skirts - but if you have a gorgeous one in your closet, you'd better not let it languish there! What matters when it comes to style is your confidence. If that's there, heads will turn as you pass by, and people will want to know your secret. <img> Use accessories to add interest to your outfits. Sunglasses, jewelry, watches, bags, and other accessories can add just the right touch to an outfit. They help you look more put together, which is an important part of looking your best. After getting dressed, decide how to complete your look.\nA solid-colored top usually pairs well with a statement necklace, which adds a bit of interest to the look.\nIf your hair is pulled back, consider putting on a pair of earrings to draw attention to your chin.\nMen can accessorize with watches, ties and cufflinks, as well as other jewelry. <img> Have the right outfit for different occasions. Part of looking your best is looking the part - and that means putting a little forethought into your outfits. While there's nothing wrong with standing out, you should do it in a way that also allows you to fit in. Don't wear something so out of place that people are distracted by your outfit instead of seeing the person wearing it.\nIf you're going to a special event, find out if there's a dress code. Find a way to adhere to it that allows you to express your personal style. <img> ", "Take care of your skin. No matter what you're wearing, if your skin looks dull and dry you won't be showing the world your best self. Have a skincare routine that makes you look fresh, healthy, and vibrant from head to toe. This will mean different things for different people, but there are a few general approaches that make sense for everyone:\nWash your skin without using harsh detergents. Use a gentle soap that will encourage your skin to retain moisture, which helps it look healthy. \nExfoliate your skin a few times a week. Use a dry brush or a body scrub to slough off dead skin cells.\nMoisturize your skin with lotion, cream, or oil to keep it supple and soft. <img> Trim your nails and maintain body hair. These two simple grooming habits will help you look clean and fresh, even if you're not wearing anything particularly special.\n\n Give yourself a manicure or pay for one every few weeks.\nDecide what hair you want to keep and what you want to remove. Shave, wax, or thread the hair that you'd prefer not to have. <img> Eat nutritious food. For a healthy body shape and vibrant hair and skin, it's important to eat plenty of vitamins every single day. Cut back on sugar, processed foods, refined flour, salty food, and fried food for better overall health - and a more beautiful appearance. Incorporate more of the following foods into your diet:\nFruits and vegetables. The importance of eating a variety of fruits and vegetables- preferably steamed, sauteed, or blended, rather than juiced, fried, or boiled - cannot be understated. Try to make fruits and veggies the bulk of your diet.\nHealthy fats. Eat avocados, nuts, fish, eggs, and other healthy fats containing omega-3 fatty acids for healthy skin, hair, and organs.\nLean protein. Go for chicken, fish, eggs, lean beef, pork, tofu, and other good sources of protein. Steer clear of processed meats, like lunch meat or beef jerky, since these have lots of additives.\nWhole grains. Oatmeal, spelt, whole wheat, and other whole grains are also part of a balanced diet. <img> Drink lots of water. If you feel tired, dull, and a little lifeless, perk yourself up by drinking water. Lots of it. It will have a huge impact on the appearance of your hair and skin, as well as giving you more energy - which, in turn, will also help you look your best. Aim to get at least 8 glasses every single day.\nReplace sugary drinks with water or herbal tea whenever possible.\nAvoid drinking too much alcohol - over time, it will definitely affect the appearance of your body and face, not to mention making you feel ill or sad the day after drinking. When you do drink, have a glass of water for every glass of alcohol. <img> Stop smoking. Using tobacco products is a sure way to age your skin and hair, and that won't help you look your best. Start taking steps to quit smoking and using other tobacco products as soon as you can. <img> Find an exercise you love. Getting your blood flowing and strengthening your muscles will help you look you're very best. Your skin will have a healthy flush, your posture will improve, and your arms, legs and torso will look more shapely. If you don't already exercise, it's never too late to start.\nWeight training is key when it comes to building muscle.\nConsider joining a team to get exercise and socialize at the same time.\nTry yoga if you're not into high-energy sports. <img> Take good care of yourself. Part of looking your best is being aware of your body's needs and making time to meet them. When you're feeling run down and stressed, your body suffers, and it shows. It's important to learn how to take care of yourself well. You'll know you're doing it right when you look in the mirror and see that healthy, happy glow.\nGet plenty of sleep. Try starting a schedule so you can make sure you get at least 7 to 8 hours every night.\nTake time to relax. Whatever you do to relax, make time for it several times a week. Take a long, hot bath, go for a walk, hang out with friends, play some video games, read a book or cook yourself a healthy meal.\nGo to the doctor regularly. Staying on top of any health problems is an important part of self care, too. Take care of medical problems before they get out of hand. <img> " ]	[ [ "84f93b8b-add6-4872-99a7-2ed61355df6e", "f121c50e-edde-4dd0-98ef-3f715e003301", "920b7ec3-8616-4de9-b37c-6a211bf452e0", "7f7d232d-dddc-494b-a69a-c3da49f2e0f1", "1b4f6275-eeba-4914-a527-bf9013547a55", "cd7d5a89-44ab-4eae-a711-5cc8b61a4458", "c8192e9e-1310-4ff2-9039-d37f03b58230" ], [ "5421ec1a-994d-4326-96e3-0ba85409be7c", "0a878cb0-a32a-4005-a534-12ff9348b012", "b85d070b-48c8-487b-961c-47a4a8489f82", "1a39f321-3c74-4643-bb57-8000447d9d0c", "bddd2e68-60f9-4ab9-bbcc-212e8f684560", "e82d5bbe-7c92-4f25-bb9f-5a17176be8b0" ], [ "10b1bad4-3b9a-439b-aa31-70f1bee430ee", "88865643-997e-4a89-8eb9-9e7c9e4027f2", "eb790a0a-bb84-4922-9b09-c9b87e089c1d", "70e2ac3e-bcae-44f1-b5a0-060f28958444", "d807f3d1-35b9-45e3-9ebc-258fffb55eba", "007f5d82-5973-426f-88b0-b6a240c269ea", "38e687bc-af36-42c7-9433-d3098a386d5f" ] ]	[ [ "84f93b8b-add6-4872-99a7-2ed61355df6e.jpg", "f121c50e-edde-4dd0-98ef-3f715e003301.jpg", "920b7ec3-8616-4de9-b37c-6a211bf452e0.jpg", "7f7d232d-dddc-494b-a69a-c3da49f2e0f1.jpg", "1b4f6275-eeba-4914-a527-bf9013547a55.jpg", "cd7d5a89-44ab-4eae-a711-5cc8b61a4458.jpg", "c8192e9e-1310-4ff2-9039-d37f03b58230.jpg" ], [ "5421ec1a-994d-4326-96e3-0ba85409be7c.jpg", "0a878cb0-a32a-4005-a534-12ff9348b012.jpg", "b85d070b-48c8-487b-961c-47a4a8489f82.jpg", "1a39f321-3c74-4643-bb57-8000447d9d0c.jpg", "bddd2e68-60f9-4ab9-bbcc-212e8f684560.jpg", "e82d5bbe-7c92-4f25-bb9f-5a17176be8b0.jpg" ], [ "10b1bad4-3b9a-439b-aa31-70f1bee430ee.jpg", "88865643-997e-4a89-8eb9-9e7c9e4027f2.jpg", "eb790a0a-bb84-4922-9b09-c9b87e089c1d.jpg", "70e2ac3e-bcae-44f1-b5a0-060f28958444.jpg", "d807f3d1-35b9-45e3-9ebc-258fffb55eba.jpg", "007f5d82-5973-426f-88b0-b6a240c269ea.jpg", "38e687bc-af36-42c7-9433-d3098a386d5f.jpg" ] ]
How to Divide Mixed Fractions	[ "ZKC718cl3hKs", "EONivBXh3JeK", "Q49S5mfbqnv9" ]	[ "Multiply the whole number by the denominator of its combined fraction. Do this for both mixed numbers. Set these products aside. They are only part of your new numerator.\nFor example, if you want to calculate 612÷214{\\displaystyle 6{\\frac {1}{2}}\\div 2{\\frac {1}{4}}}, you would multiply 6×2=12{\\displaystyle 6\\times 2=12} and 2×4=8{\\displaystyle 2\\times 4=8}. <img> Add the numerator to the product.Do this for both mixed numbers. This sum will be the numerator of your improper fraction.\nFor example, 12+1=13{\\displaystyle 12+1=13} and 8+1=9{\\displaystyle 8+1=9}. <img> Place the sum over the original denominator. Complete this step for both fractions, making sure you use the correct denominators. These are your improper fractions that you will use to complete the division.\nFor example, 612{\\displaystyle 6{\\frac {1}{2}}} becomes 132{\\displaystyle {\\frac {13}{2}}} and 214{\\displaystyle 2{\\frac {1}{4}}} becomes 94{\\displaystyle {\\frac {9}{4}}}. <img> Convert whole numbers to fractions. If you are working with any whole numbers, you need to convert them to fractions. To do this, turn the number into the numerator of a fraction. The denominator will be 1.\nFor example, 3=31{\\displaystyle 3={\\frac {3}{1}}}. <img> ", "Write the new division problem. Use the improper fractions you found by completing the calculations in Part 1.\nFor example, 132÷94{\\displaystyle {\\frac {13}{2}}\\div {\\frac {9}{4}}}. <img> Take the reciprocal of the second fraction. To find a reciprocal of a fraction, you need to “flip” it, so that the numerator becomes the denominator, and the denominator becomes the numerator. Then, change the problem to a multiplication problem.\nFor example, if you take the reciprocal of 94{\\displaystyle {\\frac {9}{4}}}, it becomes 49{\\displaystyle {\\frac {4}{9}}}. So 132÷94{\\displaystyle {\\frac {13}{2}}\\div {\\frac {9}{4}}} becomes 132×49{\\displaystyle {\\frac {13}{2}}\\times {\\frac {4}{9}}} <img> Multiply the numerators. To do this, multiply them as if they were whole numbers. This product will be the numerator of your answer.\nFor example, if calculating 132×49{\\displaystyle {\\frac {13}{2}}\\times {\\frac {4}{9}}}, you would multiply the numerators: 13×4=52{\\displaystyle 13\\times 4=52}. <img> Multiply the denominators. To do this, multiply them as if they were whole numbers. This product will be the denominator of your answer.\nFor example, if calculating 132×49{\\displaystyle {\\frac {13}{2}}\\times {\\frac {4}{9}}}, you would multiply the denominators: 2×9=18{\\displaystyle 2\\times 9=18}. Putting together your numerator and denominator, your answer becomes 5218{\\displaystyle {\\frac {52}{18}}}. <img> Simplify your answer, if possible. To simplify, or reduce, a fraction, you need to find the greatest factor (besides 1) that is common to the numerator and the denominator. Then, divide the numerator and denominator by that factor. For more information on this process, read Reduce Fractions.\nFor example, 52{\\displaystyle 52} and 18{\\displaystyle 18} are both divisible by 2{\\displaystyle 2}.52÷2=26{\\displaystyle 52\\div 2=26}18÷2=9{\\displaystyle 18\\div 2=9}So, 5218=269{\\displaystyle {\\frac {52}{18}}={\\frac {26}{9}}} <img> ", "Divide the numerator by the denominator. If there is no remainder, then your answer is a whole number rather than a mixed number, and you need not do anything further. Likely, though, you will have a remainder. Set this aside for now. The quotient you found when Dividing the numerator by the denominator will be the whole number of your mixed number.\nFor example, 26÷9=2{\\displaystyle 26\\div 9=2} with a remainder of 8{\\displaystyle 8}. Thus, the whole number of your mixed number will be 2. <img> Turn the remainder into the numerator of your fraction. Place this numerator over the original denominator. This will give you the fraction of your mixed number. \nFor example, if your original denominator is 9{\\displaystyle 9} and your remainder is 8{\\displaystyle 8}, the fraction of your mixed number is 89{\\displaystyle {\\frac {8}{9}}}. <img> Combine the whole number and the fraction.

How to Use Bluetooth Technology	[ "fWC2deq7lj7c", "xauztyMH2nxC" ]	[ "Learn what Bluetooth does. Bluetooth is a wireless connectivity tool that allows you to \"pair\" your devices so that they can interact with each other. For example, you can pair a headset with most smartphones, allowing you to talk without touching your phone. You can pair a gaming controller to a computer or console so you don't have to worry about the cord. You can send music to a Bluetooth-enabled speaker from your smartphone or laptop without having to connect them, or set up a home theater system without running speaker wire everywhere.\nBluetooth has a maximum range of about 30 feet.\nBluetooth transfer speeds top out at about 24 Mbps. <img> Check if your devices are Bluetooth-capable. Bluetooth has been around for a long time (about 20 years), and is the market leader in wireless connectivity. Chances are that your wireless device comes with Bluetooth support. The big exception to this is desktop computers. While nearly all laptops will have Bluetooth built-in, most desktops do not include it. You will need to purchase a Bluetooth dongle and enable it if you want to connect your desktop computer to Bluetooth devices.\nMany modern cars now have Bluetooth capabilities, allowing you to pair your phone while you are driving.\nVirtually every smartphone is able to pair with Bluetooth devices.\nMany newer printers are Bluetooth-capable, and can print wirelessly across the room. <img> Learn the capabilities of your Bluetooth devices. Every Bluetooth device has either single or multiple functionalities. For example, some cell phones may only allow you to use Bluetooth for making phone calls; whereas other cell phones may also allow you to transfer files to and from other cell phones. Every Bluetooth device has slightly different functionality.\nReview the manuals or consult with the manufacturers for your electronic devices to determine the ways in which you can use their Bluetooth technology. <img> Pair your Bluetooth devices. In order to use Bluetooth technology, you must connect your devices to one another wirelessly, also known as \"pairing\". The pairing process varies from device to device, but generally you will have one device that is \"listening\", and then the secondary device gets put into pairing mode. For example, if you are pairing a headset to a phone, your phone would be in \"listen\" mode, and the headset would be put into \"pairing\" mode. The phone would then \"discover\" the headset, and the connection would be established.\nFollow the instructions provided with your Bluetooth devices to complete the pairing process. In most cases, you will be required to perform a series of specific steps that will result in the pairing of your devices.\nWhen pairing devices, you typically will be asked for a PIN before the connection is made. If a PIN was never set, the default is usually 0000.\nPairing typically only needs to be done once. AS long as Bluetooth is enabled on the devices, future connections will happen automatically. <img> ", "Transfer files between devices. Some Bluetooth devices will allow you to transfer files and documents from one device to another. For example, if your friend has a bunch of good pictures on their camera, you can pair it with your phone to quickly get copies of them.\nTransfer files between cellphones, cameras and camcorders, computers, televisions, and more. <img> Use Bluetooth technology to talk on the phone. Bluetooth earpieces can be paired with some land-line telephones or cellphones so you can talk on the phone without having to hold its receiver. This is especially useful if you find yourself on the phone a lot for work and don't want to have to fish it out every time you get a call. <img> Tether your phone to your computer. Tethering your device allows you to share your phone's mobile network connection with your computer. This lets you browse the internet on your computer without having to connect to a Wi-Fi network. Not all services allow tethering, so check with your mobile carrier. Sometimes extra fees are required. <img> Use Bluetooth to drive safer. Enable the Bluetooth technology built directly into your automobile or wear a Bluetooth earpiece when you drive so you can keep both hands placed on the steering wheel. In some regions, it is illegal to hold a cell phone in your hand and talk while you are driving. Bluetooth will allow you to talk on your phone while driving without breaking the law.\nCertain phones and car stereos will allow you to play music over the car stereo when connected to the phone via Bluetooth <img> Synchronize data between your Bluetooth devices. Some devices will allow you to synchronize data such as contact lists, emails, and calendar events between one another. This can be a great way to sync your phone contacts with your computer, or to transfer data to another phone. <img> Use Bluetooth equipment in your home office. Bluetooth devices can significantly decrease tangled cables, and allow you to work more freely. Bluetooth keyboards and mice allow you to type from anywhere without sacrificing accuracy. Bluetooth printers allow you to place the printer wherever you'd like without having to worry about stretching a cable from the printer to your computer. <img> Use Bluetooth devices to customize your home theater. Bluetooth speakers and remotes can make controlling and interacting with your media much easier. With a Bluetooth remote, you don't need to point it at the TV to use it. Bluetooth speakers allow you to set up a surround sound system without having to run speaker wires all over your living room. In order to set up a Bluetooth home theater system, you will need a Bluetooth-capable receiver. <img> Use Bluetooth to secure your house or car. Bluetooth technology is available in wireless entry systems that can unlock your home or car with the tap of a button on your smartphone. You'll never have to search for missing keys again! Check your local hardware store for Bluetooth-capable deadbolt systems, or contact your local car stereo store to ask about Bluetooth car lock mechanisms. <img> Connect a PlayStation controller to your computer. If your computer is Bluetooth-capable, you can connect a PlayStation 3 or 4 controller to use a gamepad for your PC games. This is not supported by Sony, and requires the use of third-party software, but is relatively easy to set up. <img> Play multiplayer games. Bluetooth allows you to create a local network between two phones, which is a quick and easy way to set up a multiplayer gaming session. Although this only works if you're in the same room, it's much more reliable than trying to game over the internet. <img> " ]	[ [ "16e4dd9c-ec88-401a-a95c-93ce5343e4ee", "1eaea8e4-65b3-4c0f-80f9-63cad38fa683", "2171ee29-7125-449b-a4a0-b1ef7ae620db", "976ee700-a063-46c0-ba97-0e1a353ab961" ], [ "dd554455-8c6b-4d08-b5e3-70ef8deb4b61", "6dc61d6e-0a8b-4780-a09e-882f941a80a8", "adf29ce2-099d-45a3-a724-3911613db079", "0daa3d51-7039-4c92-99e3-149773c8d608", "52b3ed5b-b6fa-4c7c-aee3-b73e89c176e5", "394d8c03-5fc8-44b8-82cd-b5883ec8627b", "91f3eaa5-40ff-4adc-981d-85c4b4cce67c", "12d011d9-5b63-4172-a6ae-2b8afc858320", "2a8e5f68-da37-4804-8835-5f42d72becc1", "1590bff9-5ccd-4939-b000-0ac434e05c7b" ] ]	[ [ "16e4dd9c-ec88-401a-a95c-93ce5343e4ee.jpg", "1eaea8e4-65b3-4c0f-80f9-63cad38fa683.jpg", "2171ee29-7125-449b-a4a0-b1ef7ae620db.jpg", "976ee700-a063-46c0-ba97-0e1a353ab961.jpg" ], [ "dd554455-8c6b-4d08-b5e3-70ef8deb4b61.jpg", "6dc61d6e-0a8b-4780-a09e-882f941a80a8.jpg", "adf29ce2-099d-45a3-a724-3911613db079.jpg", "0daa3d51-7039-4c92-99e3-149773c8d608.jpg", "52b3ed5b-b6fa-4c7c-aee3-b73e89c176e5.jpg", "394d8c03-5fc8-44b8-82cd-b5883ec8627b.jpg", "91f3eaa5-40ff-4adc-981d-85c4b4cce67c.jpg", "12d011d9-5b63-4172-a6ae-2b8afc858320.jpg", "2a8e5f68-da37-4804-8835-5f42d72becc1.jpg", "1590bff9-5ccd-4939-b000-0ac434e05c7b.jpg" ] ]
How to Protect Your Ovarian Reserve	[ "3b4ywr4vPBMZ", "k2bGpWbl2TiW", "NMUH4b7JkaRI", "68GsFqfk8EZv" ]	[ "Work with your doctor to evaluate and monitor your fertility. At your initial appointment, talk with your doctor about how to boost your fertility and develop a plan for treatment. They will likely give you a pelvic exam and record your weight and blood pressure. To find out more information, they might order a series of basal follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) blood tests in order to see how well your ovaries are functioning.\nIn the beginning, you may work with your primary care physician or obstetrician on managing modifiable risk factors that could be impacting your fertility. After a year or so of trying to conceive, you may be referred to a specialized clinic and/or put on specialized medication for fertility management.\nThey could also look at your ovaries with an ultrasound to see how your eggs are developing.\nIt’s important to be as candid as possible about any health issues that you are experiencing. Heavy periods or cramping can indicate endometriosis, for example. <img> Expect a drop in ovarian reserve quality as you age. The younger that you are the more healthy eggs that you’ll have that can potentially lead to a pregnancy. As you age, your ovarian reserve might diminish in numbers. By the time that a woman is 40, even if she has many eggs, they might not be of sufficient quality for fertilization.\nIt’s still possible for some women to get pregnant at 40 and beyond. However, this possibility requires working very closely with your doctor.\nIf you’ve stopped menstruating (getting your period) prior to the age of 40, then you are experiencing early menopause and primary ovarian insufficiency. This can lead to infertility and requires medical treatment. <img> Treat Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) with medications. PCOS is a condition that damages the ability of your ovaries to produce fertile and viable eggs. Irregular periods, excess body hair, and difficulties getting pregnant are all signs of PCOS. There is no cure for PCOS. However, your doctor can prescribe medications that can minimize the effects of PCOS.\nFor example, your doctor may prescribe metformin, as this medication both treats PCOS symptoms and helps increase the chance of conception. This medication is often the first treatment recommended for women with PCOS who are looking to become pregnant. <img> Manage endometriosis with hormone medications and surgery. Endometriosis is a condition where your uterine lining spreads beyond the uterus. It can potentially impact your fertility or lower your ovarian production, especially if left untreated. Talk with your doctor about starting hormone therapy, such as taking birth control pills.\nUnfortunately, medications will not usually fully resolve the fertility problems associated with endometriosis. You may need surgery to remove the excess tissue while still preserving the uterus and ability to get pregnant.\nSome signs of endometriosis include painful periods, heavy period bleeding, constipation, and nausea. Many people with endometriosis find it helpful to take over-the-counter pain medications with their doctor’s consent. <img> ", "Increase your dietary intake of vitamin A. Some natural fertility practices hold that increasing your dietary intake of vitamin A may help manage fertility. This is particularly true for women with a vitamin A deficiency. Carrots, eggs, and milk are all great food sources of vitamin A.\nAlways talk to your health care practitioner prior to changing your diet or taking any additional supplements. <img> Ingest at least 1,200 IUs of vitamin D each day. You can gain some vitamin D from sun exposure, but supplementation and food sources are also important sources of this nutrient. Milk, salmon, and eggs all contain high levels of vitamin D. You can also take a daily D supplement or multivitamin to get your daily allotment.\nVitamin D is crucial for fertility because it helps to balance out a woman’s anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH). AMH is an indicator of ovarian health.\nConsult your doctor before taking any supplements. They may check your vitamin D blood levels and adjust your dosage based off of your personal needs. <img> Intake between 1000-2000 mg of omega-3 each day. Omega-3 fatty acids can help to keep your ovaries healthy and fully functioning. You can get your daily amount of omega-3 fatty acids by eating a diet rich in walnuts, salmon, and soybeans. Or, you can take a multivitamin or supplement with a set amount of omega-3.\nIt’s important to not take any supplements before talking with your doctor. <img> ", "Take clomiphene (Clomid) if your hormones are imbalanced. If your follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) or luteinizing hormone (LH) levels come back low on blood tests, then your doctor might give you a prescription for Clomid. This medication interacts with your pituitary gland to boost your FSH and LH levels. This, in turn, often creates more eggs available for ovulation.\nClomid comes in pill form. You’ll usually take a single tablet each day for 5-7 days, as an initial cycle. <img> Use a gonadotropin medication if your ovary isn’t producing enough eggs. This medication works through a series of injections that you’ll need to give yourself at home. The active ingredients interact with your ovaries to stimulate the production of additional eggs. This approach is often used in tandem with other fertility treatments.\nIf you aren’t comfortable with shots, then this might not be the best fertility boosting method for you.\nGonadotropin medications go by a variety of names, including Menopur, Bravelle, and Ovidrel.\nThis type of treatments also increases your odds of conceiving multiples. <img> Go with metformin medication if you are insulin resistant. This type of medications helps to reduce your overall blood sugar levels, which can improve the quality of your egg reserves. Many women with PCOS are also prescribed metformin to boost fertility.\nYour doctor can prescribe metformin in either tablet or oral solution form. You’ll need to take it daily, but the amount of your dosage will depend on your sugar levels, weight, and other factors.\nMetformin goes by a variety of prescription names, including Glucophage. <img> ", "Stop smoking any kind of tobacco products. Talk with your doctor about signing up for a stop smoking support group. Or, discuss the possibility of using a nicotine patch to wean yourself off the habit over time. You might even be able to stop smoking without any outside help, but that’s not always the case.\nSmoking of any type can actually reduce the amount of oxygenated blood that circulates throughout your body. This means that your ovaries, and entire reproductive system, get less blood and nutrients.\nThe possibility of miscarriage and genetic abnormalities in eggs is higher for smokers than nonsmokers. <img> Maintain a healthy body weight. Workout at least 3 times per week mixing both cardio and resistance exercises. Eat a healthy diet with lots of lean proteins and fresh produce. Talk with your doctor about working with a weight loss professional, such as a dietician. Being either over- or underweight can damage your ovarian production. <img> Practice safe sex. Ask that your sexual partners get tested for sexually transmitted infections (STIs). See your gynecologist at least once every year and discuss whether STI testing is right for you, too. In addition, use condoms when having sexual intercourse until you are ready to start trying to conceive. This will help prevent the transmission of STIs, such as chlamydia and gonorrhea, which can lead to infertility in women if left untreated. <img> Take yoga classes 1-2 times per week. Check out the yoga studios in your area and attend a few classes on a trial basis. Determine which type of yoga you enjoy the most and keep going as you work through the fertility process. Yoga can help to lower stress levels. It also may support the development of healthy ovarian follicles and eggs.\nYoga may boost blood circulation to your pelvic region as well. This can lead to a healthier reproductive system overall. <img> " ]	[ [ "bda51e3a-8267-47db-b017-9fa14dea5dba", "79de9a29-f68b-4312-921f-399b82636fba", "41a36365-0bb4-49f1-afbf-90cce4e72bbe", "52dc5deb-a8b1-4797-a385-321c5fcb68b2" ], [ "3721f5e3-360a-45d9-92b5-65112bd2ece9", "9ffa4534-2ab1-46c4-ab2d-0d78080cab57", "daba34e5-349b-41b9-a2bc-3fe00a0cdbf8" ], [ "6beca6c9-3d21-42ae-834a-f5c4ed356fae", "64360a84-6f57-46d0-8096-c294b85fb20f", "be7fd577-4c72-4144-861f-1912e4391836" ], [ "88481698-a79e-4281-88b9-addbca5758f7", "d25392e3-9aa2-4bd8-adcf-b628edcbc7ac", "b95f8627-5105-41eb-8a98-9c9828fa6f39", "33fe4a90-702a-4882-9437-b105d50a2bb3" ] ]	[ [ "bda51e3a-8267-47db-b017-9fa14dea5dba.jpg", "79de9a29-f68b-4312-921f-399b82636fba.jpg", "41a36365-0bb4-49f1-afbf-90cce4e72bbe.jpg", "52dc5deb-a8b1-4797-a385-321c5fcb68b2.jpg" ], [ "3721f5e3-360a-45d9-92b5-65112bd2ece9.jpg", "9ffa4534-2ab1-46c4-ab2d-0d78080cab57.jpg", "daba34e5-349b-41b9-a2bc-3fe00a0cdbf8.jpg" ], [ "6beca6c9-3d21-42ae-834a-f5c4ed356fae.jpg", "64360a84-6f57-46d0-8096-c294b85fb20f.jpg", "be7fd577-4c72-4144-861f-1912e4391836.jpg" ], [ "88481698-a79e-4281-88b9-addbca5758f7.jpg", "d25392e3-9aa2-4bd8-adcf-b628edcbc7ac.jpg", "b95f8627-5105-41eb-8a98-9c9828fa6f39.jpg", "33fe4a90-702a-4882-9437-b105d50a2bb3.jpg" ] ]

How to Manage Orthorexia	[ "6cGYD0k43Hp6", "vequpTfpwLgE", "VGuQknVl5OjG" ]	[ "Think about the costs of your eating. Think about the impact your eating has on your life. Healthy eating is one thing, but having an inflexible diet is different than healthy eating. Some common costs of orthorexia include having an extreme preoccupation with food, avoiding entire food groups, focusing on the virtuousness of certain food choices, being judgmental of other people’s choices, having rigid eating habits, limiting your foods to a small selection of ‘acceptable’ foods, and feeling extreme guilt or self-loathing if you stray from your diet.\nHow are these things affecting your life? How would you like them to change?\nYou may also become obsessed with probiotics, supplements, or herbs or spend unreasonable amounts of time on food preparation.\nConsider if the people close to you have expressed concern about your fixations or refer to you as \"obsessed.\" <img> Ask how it’s affecting your social life. If your eating habits are extremely inflexible, they may interfere with your social life and friendships. For example, if you have several ‘black list’ foods, you may not join your friends for lunch or you may decline dinner invitations. If you tend to socially isolate yourself because of your orthorexia, think about what you can do to reconnect with friends.\nInvite people over to your home for dinner.\nDo activities that do not revolve around food. As you work through treatment, begin to join your friends for events around food.\nThink about if your friends have not been inviting you to activities they normally would. This could be because you lecture them about food choices or try to control activities so that your eating habits always come first. <img> Address your fitness habits. Some people with orthorexia become obsessed with fitness and working out. If your workout schedule is rigid and interferes with other areas of your life, consider cutting down your workouts. For example, if you work out for two hours each day, consider cutting down to one hour each day.\nIf your exercise is hurting your body and not helping it, work with a physician to find what limits to follow and what intensity to use.\nA major warning sign is if you have been tempted to disregard your physician's limitations or resume working out again before you are medically cleared to do so after an injury. <img> ", "Get some blood tests. Begin to work toward balanced health by meeting with your physician. Ask for a blood test to check your nutritional health. This can help you navigate any nutrient deficiencies you may have or any hormonal imbalances. Blood tests can tell you your iron, vitamin, mineral, hormone, and cholesterol levels.\nFor example, if you’ve only eaten fruit for several months, you may lack nutrients that support your body found in vegetables, oils, and proteins. A blood test can help you work toward replenishing your deficiencies. <img> Talk to a dietitian. Work with a dietitian to help you balance your eating. Your dietitian may have you look at your diet then make some adjustments for optimal health. While it can be difficult to make changes, remember that a dietician is an expert and is there to help you.\nBe cautious about people who refer to themselves as \"nutritionists.\" This term is largely unregulated in the United States, meaning that anyone can use it without any qualifications. Often these people are trying to sell you something or council you into further unhealthy food fixations. Registered dietitians have met certain educational and licensure requirements.\nMake regular appointments with a dietician and keep track of the progress you are making. You may notice that with time you feel better with changes to your diet. <img> Be flexible in your food choices. Part of orthorexia is having strict food guidelines. Perhaps you only eat ‘clean’ foods or foods of a certain color, or a very small list of acceptable foods. While it can be scary to start incorporating new or ‘bad’ foods back into your diet, start by adding one new food in each week.\nYou don’t need to jump headfirst into eating sweets, processed foods, or junk foods. Start slowly, and build up to a level that feels comfortable and is still healthy.\nConsult with your dietician or physician regarding what foods you may need. You may have some deficiencies that need immediate attention.\nTry to get your mental health professional and your dietitian to coordinate care so you can strike an appropriate and sustainable balance in your diet. <img> Incorporate feared foods into your diet. As you begin to be more flexible in your diet, take a challenge and start eating feared foods. For some people, this may be chocolate, sugar, or bagels. For others, it may be fruit or dairy. Whatever it is that you fear, take a small challenge every once in a while to eat it. Even if it’s a few bites, it can help you conquer your fear.\nRemind yourself that foods are okay in moderation and that it’s okay to enjoy food. <img> Make decisions based on what you want. People with orthorexia make decisions based on food and food choices. Instead of having rigid rules to follow about what to eat and when to eat it, learn to follow your body’s cues. Eat when you feel hungry, not when you are ‘supposed’ to eat. Instead of following a strict diet, ask yourself, “What would I like to eat for breakfast?”\nBegin to listen to your body’s cues and get more in touch with what your body wants.\nTalking it through with a significant other or trusted family member or friend can help you start to process and identify your body's cues. Journaling may also be helpful. <img> ", "See a therapist. If you’re having trouble coping with orthorexia on your own, you may want to talk about it with someone. A therapist can help you work through your emotions and create a different relationship with food that supports you better.\nAsk your insurance provider, general practitioner, or local mental health clinic for a referral to a therapist. You can also ask friends and family for a recommendation. <img> Consider medication. Some people find medications helpful in treating accompanying symptoms of orthorexia. Work with a psychiatrist to see whether medications are a good option for you. Medications can address obsessive-compulsive symptoms, anxiety, and depression.\nTo find a psychiatrist, call your insurance provider or local mental health clinic. You can also speak with your physician about obtaining a referral. <img> Cope with feelings of guilt. When you deviate from your pure lifestyle or strict routine, you may feel overcome by feelings of guilt or shame. You might associate your feelings of self-worth or your identity with the foods you eat and the healthy lifestyle you live. It’s okay to have a diet full of variety, even if you occasionally eat something unhealthy. What you eat isn’t who you are, and your identity isn’t in the foods you avoid.\nIf you feel guilty after an unhealthy decision, accept your decision and move on. Forgive yourself and remember that your one ‘bad’ choice doesn’t define you, your self-worth, or your identity.\nAsk a trusted friend or family member to sit with you while you eat and visit with you afterwards, until the guilt dissipates. This can be an effective distraction technique to help you return to more normal eating. <img> Deal with life’s issues head-on. Some people use orthorexia as a way to avoid dealing with other problems. These might include painful emotions or struggling relationships. While some people dive headfirst into alcohol or drug problems, others fixate on a specific thing and revolve their lives around that. If you ignore your problems and put all of your focus on food and pure eating, it might be time to take a more honest look.\nInstead of ignoring or avoiding your problems, begin to tackle them one by one. Work with a therapist to help you.\nTake a look at any other ways you might be self-medicating, as your trouble may not be limited to food and diet. Think about if you've had obsessions about different things in the past. It is common for addictions to shift over a lifetime. Ask trusted friends or family for their own perspective on your situation. <img> " ]	[ [ "032c3a42-ad32-43cc-850e-ad61c055d352", "56563659-1b2a-457d-976f-072ca5f3b372", "e0453f90-9a3e-491a-9225-b088f006c48d" ], [ "464d2dda-42c3-4010-8638-4ba9471db860", "6a0534fb-1435-4dbc-9ecb-967d17806223", "8cf06c70-8af4-49af-b8df-c3d483dd8f73", "5276a993-563d-4f16-bb89-8726ca2ddeab", "c4d5640b-d213-41b4-a6bf-84e6378282e1" ], [ "8cd848f4-ba81-4035-8f85-fd03fceb7c8a", "85d89100-7c78-433e-bac1-5906bea2f511", "a7a06c4c-c260-4394-9952-f38a7fd48aed", "f0c6b7fb-dd35-404c-8ef9-d42292510392" ] ]	[ [ "032c3a42-ad32-43cc-850e-ad61c055d352.jpg", "56563659-1b2a-457d-976f-072ca5f3b372.jpg", "e0453f90-9a3e-491a-9225-b088f006c48d.jpg" ], [ "464d2dda-42c3-4010-8638-4ba9471db860.jpg", "6a0534fb-1435-4dbc-9ecb-967d17806223.jpg", "8cf06c70-8af4-49af-b8df-c3d483dd8f73.jpg", "5276a993-563d-4f16-bb89-8726ca2ddeab.jpg", "c4d5640b-d213-41b4-a6bf-84e6378282e1.jpg" ], [ "8cd848f4-ba81-4035-8f85-fd03fceb7c8a.jpg", "85d89100-7c78-433e-bac1-5906bea2f511.jpg", "a7a06c4c-c260-4394-9952-f38a7fd48aed.jpg", "f0c6b7fb-dd35-404c-8ef9-d42292510392.jpg" ] ]
How to Use Chalk Paint on Furniture	[ "bnAjYFXmsMeM", "NbHT7x77Px6O", "jOFMp2KXxBoh" ]	[ "Clean off your furniture. Start wiping down your furniture to remove any dirt and debris. Try wiping down the piece with a clean, slightly damp rag first. Then take a cleaning wipe like Lysol or Clorox and go back over it. You don’t want any dust or grit to get stuck under your coats of paint. <img> Remove any hardware. Before you start painting, be sure to remove any handles, buttons, or decorative items that you don’t want to paint over. As you remove them, pay attention to where they went and how they were installed. This will make it easier when you have to put everything back on. Place each piece into a ziploc bag so they don’t get lost after you start painting. <img> Fill in gouges and deep scratches when needed. If you are painting an older piece or one you purchased from a thrift store, be sure to check it for any marks. Look over the piece first for large discolorations, indents, or scratches. Then run your hands over the item just to be sure. If you find any, use a filler like Elmer’s Wood Filler and a putty knife to close up the gouges.\nYou can also leave these marks if you would prefer a more dated and worn look. <img> Sand down wood furniture. Take a fine-grit sandpaper like Pro Grade Precision 220 and use a sponge or sanding block for consistent pressure. This will keep your sanding even. Work from the top downward. Make sure to sand with the grain as sanding against it can deeply damage the wood.\nVacuum off and wipe down the furniture again once you’ve finished. <img> ", "Choose a chalk paint color. Chalk paint comes in a variety of colors from white and black to baby blue and light green. You can choose any color you’d like, however, keep in mind that depending on the color of the item you’re painting, you may have to put on additional coats. For example, if you are working with darker colored furniture like a deep mahogany or black metal, you may need to apply three to four coats of a lighter paint.\nHowever, chalk paint goes on thick and dries quickly, so even multiple coats won’t take long. A four-ounce container should also be more than enough.\nThe most popular chalk paint comes from Annie Sloan, but you can also make your own with just latex paint, water, and baking powder. <img> Mark off areas with painter’s tape. If there are any areas on your furniture that you’d prefer to leave unpainted, make sure to mark them with painter’s tape. For example, if you are working with a dresser or items with drawers, you can add painter’s tape to the side of each to keep them clear. Of course, if you want to paint the entire piece, then painter’s tape is unnecessary. <img> Test a small patch. Pick a small out of the way area on your furniture. This can be on the back of the piece, inside a drawer, or an inconspicuous corner. Apply one coat of paint and let it dry. Then add another layer and allow that to dry as well. Check for any bleed through of the color beneath the paint. If you don’t see any, feel free to continue.\nWoods like cherry and mahogany are prone to bleeding through paint and may need to be coated in shellac first. Try a spray shellac like Bull’s Eye and apply two to three coats before painting. The shellac should only take an hour to dry. <img> Start painting from the bottom to the top. The top of the piece usually requires the most attention and coats. So it’s best to start from the bottom of the piece and work upwards. Just as you did with sanding, make sure to paint with the grain. This will make applying the paint easier. It should also make your strokes smoother.\nOnce you get to the top of the piece, make sure to paint side to side without stopping.\nYou do not need any primer before putting on chalk paint. <img> Apply two to three additional coats. After you apply the first coat of paint the piece will look rough and unfinished. Don't worry! It is normal for the first coat to look a bit unappealing. Wait for this coat to dry and then apply another immediately after. Each coat should take a half-hour to an hour to dry. <img> ", "Add a coat of wax. After your paint has dried, begin applying your wax. You can use a product like Annie Sloan’s Clear Soft Wax or Minwax Paste Finishing Wax, which will bond to the paint to create a lasting and durable finish. Use a wax brush or soft cloth to apply the wax. Work in small sections and rub the wax into the surface in circular motions. <img> Apply a final coat of wax. Once you’ve covered the entire piece, wait 10-15 minutes and apply another, final coat. Use a brand new cloth and work in the same manner as before, rubbing the wax into the piece in small sections. Use a separate rag to remove any excess wax as you go along. When you are finished, swipe a finger across the surface to make sure there are no streaks. If you see one, simply run a clean cloth over the area to remove the extra wax.\nIt takes wax 21 days to cure completely, so be careful with your furniture until then. <img> Reinstall your hardware. Once the wax dries, reinstall any hardware you removed before you painted. Be careful of the wax that is still curing when you put each item back on. This is also a good time to clean older hardware or to replace the previous pieces with brand new handles, knobs, or decorative items. <img> " ]	[ [ "5764584d-d890-4f72-8f83-f3c2bcbe2874", "0f900bdb-823e-48fb-9f35-667eee4f0c68", "a5dc4028-434c-442f-a666-0f5c2ab285fa", "ee1fc6ab-1ed1-4db2-a3ef-85df7ac65c57" ], [ "8ecbe8e4-d74d-4cb0-b8b7-5b5eeb52fd9d", "f8158f40-eb06-4f1d-972a-ee612235f43a", "aa1eca46-1160-407f-8d9c-75da349bd736", "a8b42dbc-3622-4dfa-9f6d-09d0c8545d79", "f2b37030-a7e9-4294-a48e-f44010cb96c0" ], [ "cfbc3953-0de2-48cc-82a3-cefb219ca6c7", "fa1a973d-6519-4e58-b578-1df3117d3f7c", "58a89541-3de0-495e-8ec3-68cf03bc83a9" ] ]	[ [ "5764584d-d890-4f72-8f83-f3c2bcbe2874.jpg", "0f900bdb-823e-48fb-9f35-667eee4f0c68.jpg", "a5dc4028-434c-442f-a666-0f5c2ab285fa.jpg", "ee1fc6ab-1ed1-4db2-a3ef-85df7ac65c57.jpg" ], [ "8ecbe8e4-d74d-4cb0-b8b7-5b5eeb52fd9d.jpg", "f8158f40-eb06-4f1d-972a-ee612235f43a.jpg", "aa1eca46-1160-407f-8d9c-75da349bd736.jpg", "a8b42dbc-3622-4dfa-9f6d-09d0c8545d79.jpg", "f2b37030-a7e9-4294-a48e-f44010cb96c0.jpg" ], [ "cfbc3953-0de2-48cc-82a3-cefb219ca6c7.jpg", "fa1a973d-6519-4e58-b578-1df3117d3f7c.jpg", "58a89541-3de0-495e-8ec3-68cf03bc83a9.jpg" ] ]

This varies a bit depending on the type of wasp and the environment they’re living in. Female worker wasps live the shortest length of time after birth, while male wasps rarely live past their mating season. Solitary wasps, regardless of gender, rarely live past a single season.\nSolitary wasps live by themselves and, while common, aren’t what people generally think of when they think of wasps. Social wasps, like yellowjackets and paper wasps, are the ones that come to mind, as they build nests and serve queens. The two varieties have different reproductive cycles that can affect how long they live.\nSocial wasps can actually die of loneliness! They need to be around their colony to maintain a level of energy necessary to live. A social wasp separated from their hive can die in mere days. Almost makes you feel a little bad for them! <img> Wasp queens can live up to a year. The protection the nest provides and all the workers protecting it keeps the queen wasp living the longest life among the wasps. This doesn’t make them completely immune to an early grave, however, depending on the efficiency of the nest. <img> A developed wasp colony can last three to four months. A lot of factors come into play in how long it thrives, including food availability and weather. Generally speaking, they’ll last through the late spring and all through summer, with the workers starting to lose energy in the autumn.\nWhile they won’t go out of their way to attack people (contrary to popular belief), wasps will fearlessly protect their nests if discovered. Most stings happen when a nest is stumbled upon in its hiding place. <img> ", "Solitary wasps die quickly if trapped indoors. Without a proper food source (especially since they tend to hunt for their meals) or access to water, they’re unlikely to live beyond a few days. So, you might be able to put away the old shoe and just let nature take its course if you have a single one buzzing around. <img> Wasp nests die quickly indoors. Colony wasps usually rely on sugars and pollination to keep themselves fed. If they don’t have quick access to sugar, the colony will begin to die. As a result, it’s possible to just leave a wasp nest alone if it’s completely indoors, but the nest shouldn’t be ignored if wasps don’t seem to be leaving or dying. It may mean they have access somewhere to food and water.\nSome wasps can actually survive a while without food! It depends on the species and the season, their metabolism can be slow enough to keep them kicking for longer than normal. A worker wasp who’s just eaten and has moved into autumn will live a little longer if deprived of food.\nA hibernating queen can live several weeks without food. Their metabolism is extremely slow during this period, so whatever they eat in autumn usually lasts longer. That said, if the temperature rises suddenly, it may prompt them out of hibernation early, which can lead to them starving. <img> A nest that forms both inside and outside can last months. Wasps like to build their nests in high places that are safe from predators. The corners of roofs and gutters are popular spots, and the species happens to be a fan of chewing wood, it can make nests form in walls. These nests can be really problematic, because the wasps have an easy means to get inside and out, and are protected from harsh temperatures. <img> ", "Secure windows and doors from wasp invasion. Just making sure bugs aren’t flying into your house is a great prevention technique. The easiest way to do this is with bug screens, which will stop most bugs from worming in. <img> Keep trash bins and other containers shut. Nests tend to form in protected places to hide from predators and make the walls of the colony easier to build. While most will be high up, it’s not uncommon for them to form deep at the bottom of containers. Open trash bins in particular can attract scavenging worker wasps. Make sure to keep tight fitting lids on these and other containers to prevent colonies from growing. <img> Kill wasp nests when you find them. If you see a nest starting to form, or know of places where they tend to form, you can spray it with an insecticide specifically for wasps and hornets. Remove inactive nests to avoid repopulation (though wasps don’t commonly use the same nests.) Be very careful when approaching active nests – wear protective clothing that covers as much skin as possible. <img> ", "Eggs Queen wasps will emerge from hibernation after winter, already fertilized from mating the previous year. Or, they’ll make a colony the same spring they fertilized. She eats to get the energy to find and establish a nest. Egg pods are constructed within the nest for the queen to lay her eggs. <img> Larva Once the eggs hatch, tiny, bulb-shaped larvae will occupy the cells of the nest. These larvae continue to feed on sugars brought to them by sterile worker bees. These larva will continue to outgrow their skin over the next two weeks. <img> Pupa Once the two weeks of feeding have passed, the larva will wrap themselves in a paper thin cocoon and will grow for another week. <img> Adult After emerging from their cocoons, adult wasps will take to maintaining the nest, feeding larva, and flying off to mate. By winter, all the worker wasps will die, and a newly fertilized queen will hibernate until the cycle starts again in the spring. <img> " ]	[ [ "ef72ddd0-29c7-42e4-a66d-87b603762aba", "e7254411-7cff-45b5-b4f8-40bdf8a267fb", "07c25168-930d-4e6f-8c6e-f61dd0ee8af0" ], [ "33f534a5-805f-4644-b215-7c6595f0881d", "ae684ab2-b456-4d3d-ac56-e1d82fe7d91e", "8aca16e8-cd6c-4cc1-889e-740f09b8dc8c" ], [ "96f7111f-aa53-4ce2-b647-b10fd13a12e6", "68fd5ca6-4318-45f3-932e-9366afd16c21", "2c5f5faa-1001-4ebf-af78-c3a2e8a88dce" ], [ "5974bfad-3bc5-4de9-a577-b9a8f0e6963c", "ed040968-f1d5-430d-a098-76cd269ef59e", "dcad8867-edb3-4448-b2e6-471b9b7938c0", "658cacb4-a478-49c8-903a-6f592cf9ec27" ] ]	[ [ "ef72ddd0-29c7-42e4-a66d-87b603762aba.jpg", "e7254411-7cff-45b5-b4f8-40bdf8a267fb.jpg", "07c25168-930d-4e6f-8c6e-f61dd0ee8af0.jpg" ], [ "33f534a5-805f-4644-b215-7c6595f0881d.jpg", "ae684ab2-b456-4d3d-ac56-e1d82fe7d91e.jpg", "8aca16e8-cd6c-4cc1-889e-740f09b8dc8c.jpg" ], [ "96f7111f-aa53-4ce2-b647-b10fd13a12e6.jpg", "68fd5ca6-4318-45f3-932e-9366afd16c21.jpg", "2c5f5faa-1001-4ebf-af78-c3a2e8a88dce.jpg" ], [ "5974bfad-3bc5-4de9-a577-b9a8f0e6963c.jpg", "ed040968-f1d5-430d-a098-76cd269ef59e.jpg", "dcad8867-edb3-4448-b2e6-471b9b7938c0.jpg", "658cacb4-a478-49c8-903a-6f592cf9ec27.jpg" ] ]
How to Add and Simplify Fractions	[ "q2RSAROSW9xE", "VTd53gIkAwxA", "BmdOi8x0dRnN" ]	[ "Verify the fractions have the same denominator. A denominator is the number below the fraction bar. If the fractions do not have the same denominator, you cannot use this method.\nFor example, if you are calculating 24+14{\\displaystyle {\\frac {2}{4}}+{\\frac {1}{4}}}, you can note that both fractions have the same denominator: 4. <img> Add the numerators. A numerator is the number above the fraction bar. Add numerators the same way you would add integers.\nFor example, the numerators of 24{\\displaystyle {\\frac {2}{4}}} and 14{\\displaystyle {\\frac {1}{4}}} are 2 and 1, so you would calculate 2+1=3{\\displaystyle 2+1=3}. So, 3 is the numerator of your sum. <img> Place the numerators’ sum over the denominator. Since both fractions you are adding have the same denominator, the denominator of their sum will also be the same.\nFor example, the sum of 24+14{\\displaystyle {\\frac {2}{4}}+{\\frac {1}{4}}} will have a denominator of 4: 24+14=34{\\displaystyle {\\frac {2}{4}}+{\\frac {1}{4}}={\\frac {3}{4}}}. <img> ", "Verify the fractions have different denominators. A denominator is the number below the fraction bar.\nFor example, if you are calculating 45+34{\\displaystyle {\\frac {4}{5}}+{\\frac {3}{4}}}, you can note that the fractions have different denominators: 5 and 4. <img> List the first several multiples of the smaller denominator. A multiple is a number that another number equally divides into. You can also think of a multiple as the result of multiplying a number by a whole number. You are looking for the smallest multiple that the two denominators have in common.\nFor example, the smallest denominator in 45+34{\\displaystyle {\\frac {4}{5}}+{\\frac {3}{4}}} is 4. The first several multiples of 4 are 4, 8, 12, 16, and 20. The smallest of these multiples that 5 shares with 4 is 20. So, 20 is the least common multiple of the two denominators. <img> Divide the first fraction’s denominator into the least common multiple. The result will give you a factor of change. This factor tells you how much bigger the common multiple is than the denominator.\nFor example, if the least common multiple is 20, and the first fraction’s denominator is 5, you would calculate 205=4{\\displaystyle {\\frac {20}{5}}=4}. That means 4 is the factor of change. The least common multiple is 4 times larger than the denominator. <img> Multiply the numerator of the first fraction by the factor of change. Doing this will keep the numerator and denominator of the equivalent fraction in proportion.\nFor example, if the factor of change is 4, and the first fraction’s numerator is 4, you would calculate 4×4=16{\\displaystyle 4\\times 4=16}. <img> Write the first fraction’s equivalent fraction. The numerator will be the product of the factor of change and the original fraction’s numerator. The denominator will be the least common multiple.\nFor example, 45=1620{\\displaystyle {\\frac {4}{5}}={\\frac {16}{20}}}. <img> Divide the second fraction’s denominator into the least common multiple. The result will give you a factor of change for the second fraction. This factor tells you how much bigger the common multiple is than the denominator.\nFor example, if the least common multiple is 20, and the second fraction’s denominator is 4, you would calculate 204=5{\\displaystyle {\\frac {20}{4}}=5}. That means 5 is the factor of change for the second fraction. <img> Multiply the numerator of the second fraction by the factor of change. This will give you the numerator of your equivalent fraction.\nFor example, if the factor of change is 5, and the second fraction’s numerator is 3, you would calculate 5×3=15{\\displaystyle 5\\times 3=15}. <img> Write the second fraction’s equivalent fraction. The numerator will be the product of the factor of change and the original fraction’s numerator. The denominator will be the least common multiple.\nFor example, 34=1520{\\displaystyle {\\frac {3}{4}}={\\frac {15}{20}}}. <img> Add the numerators of the equivalent fractions. Since the equivalent fractions have the same denominator, you can add the numerators as you normally would. \nFor example, 16+15=31{\\displaystyle 16+15=31}. <img> Place the sum of the numerators over the new denominator. Make sure you use the common denominator of the equivalent fractions. \nFor example, 1620+1520=3120{\\displaystyle {\\frac {16}{20}}+{\\frac {15}{20}}={\\frac {31}{20}}}. <img> ", "Factor the numerator. You want to factor the numerator into all of its prime factors. Remember that a prime number is a number that is only divisible by 1 and itself. Rewrite the fraction showing this prime factorization in the numerator.\nFor example, if simplifying the fraction 2490{\\displaystyle {\\frac {24}{90}}}, you would calculate that 24=2×2×2×3{\\displaystyle 24=2\\times 2\\times 2\\times 3}. So, rewrite the fraction as 2×2×2×390{\\displaystyle {\\frac {2\\times 2\\times 2\\times 3}{90}}} <img> Factor the denominator. You also want to factor the denominator into its prime factors. Rewrite the fraction showing its prime factorization in the denominator.\nFor example, if simplifying the fraction 2490{\\displaystyle {\\frac {24}{90}}}, you would calculate that 90=2×3×3×5{\\displaystyle 90=2\\times 3\\times 3\\times 5}. So, rewrite the fraction as 2×2×2×32×3×3×5{\\displaystyle {\\frac {2\\times 2\\times 2\\times 3}{2\\times 3\\times 3\\times 5}}}. <img> Cancel the factors common to the numerator and denominator. Remember that when a factor is common to the top and bottom of a fraction, it cancels to 11{\\displaystyle {\\frac {1}{1}}}. This means you can eliminate these factors, since any number multiplied by 1 is itself.\nFor example, you can cancel out a 2 and a 3 in the numerator and denominator: 2×2×2×32×3×3×5{\\displaystyle {\\frac {{\\cancel {2\\times }}2\\times 2{\\cancel {\\times 3}}}{{\\cancel {2\\times }}{\\cancel {3\\times }}3\\times 5}}}. <img> Rewrite the fraction with the remaining factors. You want to simplify the fraction so that it only includes the factors that did not cancel. If more than one factor remains in either the numerator or denominator, you need to multiply them together to get a single integer. The result will be your simplified fraction.\nFor example:2×2×2×32×3×3×5{\\displaystyle {\\frac {{\\cancel {2\\times }}2\\times 2{\\cancel {\\times 3}}}{{\\cancel {2\\times }}{\\cancel {3\\times }}3\\times 5}}}2×23×5{\\displaystyle {\\frac {2\\times 2}{3\\times 5}}} 415{\\displaystyle {\\frac {4}{15}}}So, the fraction 2490{\\displaystyle {\\frac {24}{90}}} simplifies to 415{\\displaystyle {\\frac {4}{15}}}. <img> " ]	[ [ "3f57c61c-70d3-46f8-8d9e-c459e77dd191", "f9c28759-e8bf-4ff6-9d2a-6de8d453be66", "9fa35c5c-f07e-470e-aada-6fe268ca8928" ], [ "302495b5-ba38-47b0-b8da-a24dd66f62c3", "ee1a23c0-a6ab-42f4-a2e6-ec66f02d5e6e", "22c01e1a-ca0e-4863-b883-39a06b67163e", "352ace7b-b7e1-4c83-aed4-94c7dd5a4f7f", "df840c0e-2bcf-4859-8683-e72541d1df27", "52263dd9-c5ea-4d73-802a-2a36ab8f1fbe", "eedd6ff3-2941-4dbb-897b-0a9ee6c16596", "cbeb6a3b-3b67-4f64-bad5-05386c6434ac", "7fb1cbfa-0ebe-4701-9e35-8766e3464f06", "22b7a441-9640-4a02-b989-c0ba44505816" ], [ "a96feab7-2eff-49d6-83e7-7a31b9d0ae41", "f650e8c2-abb1-434f-abe2-b1834d032c00", "a40cca45-ba94-4817-a29c-256801d1e3f4", "32bef028-6eb8-4ab8-9d49-a42048c007ed" ] ]	[ [ "3f57c61c-70d3-46f8-8d9e-c459e77dd191.jpg", "f9c28759-e8bf-4ff6-9d2a-6de8d453be66.jpg", "9fa35c5c-f07e-470e-aada-6fe268ca8928.jpg" ], [ "302495b5-ba38-47b0-b8da-a24dd66f62c3.jpg", "ee1a23c0-a6ab-42f4-a2e6-ec66f02d5e6e.jpg", "22c01e1a-ca0e-4863-b883-39a06b67163e.jpg", "352ace7b-b7e1-4c83-aed4-94c7dd5a4f7f.jpg", "df840c0e-2bcf-4859-8683-e72541d1df27.jpg", "52263dd9-c5ea-4d73-802a-2a36ab8f1fbe.jpg", "eedd6ff3-2941-4dbb-897b-0a9ee6c16596.jpg", "cbeb6a3b-3b67-4f64-bad5-05386c6434ac.jpg", "7fb1cbfa-0ebe-4701-9e35-8766e3464f06.jpg", "22b7a441-9640-4a02-b989-c0ba44505816.jpg" ], [ "a96feab7-2eff-49d6-83e7-7a31b9d0ae41.jpg", "f650e8c2-abb1-434f-abe2-b1834d032c00.jpg", "a40cca45-ba94-4817-a29c-256801d1e3f4.jpg", "32bef028-6eb8-4ab8-9d49-a42048c007ed.jpg" ] ]
How to Study During Engineering So That You Pass in Exams	[ "9P4v2psdhi1Z", "6L6JNrBZGEph", "WKGyIjVzJMmr" ]	[ "Work closely with your advisor to balance your course load. If you are planning to take 12 course credits, make sure they aren’t all engineering courses. Give your brain a break from math by adding a humanities course to the mix. Your advisor can help you to balance your schedule between engineering and non-engineering courses. <img> Understand how much time you’ll need to spend studying. Most professors expect that for every engineering course credit you take, you will spend 2-4 hours studying. So, if you have two engineering courses in a standard semester, that’s six credits. That means you will need to spend an average of 18 hours studying outside of class per week. Make sure you have the time before you commit to the courses! <img> Read your syllabus carefully. Find out up front what the expectations will be. Make a note of important items, such as:\nThe policy on tardiness and absences. If a professor will fail you after three tardies or unexcused absences, you’ll want to pay close attention to be present and on time.\nAssignment due dates. Is there homework due weekly? Daily? Make sure you understand how the coursework is structured.\nTests and test dates. If you aren’t a good test-taker, and the course grade is solely based on three test scores, this might not be the right class for you. <img> Sit in the front of the classroom. This will eliminate the urge to fall asleep or get distracted. You will also be able to see and hear better, and it'll be easier to ask questions. Your professors will also be more motivated to see you succeed if you appear to be making an effort. <img> Take advantage of your professors' office hours. You can usually find these at the top of your syllabus. Don’t be afraid to connect with your professors and ask them questions! They want to help you learn. And sometimes they can give you extra clues on what to expect to see on the test. <img> ", "Take good notes. Don’t try to rely on your memory! You will be able to refer back to those notes later when you get stuck on a homework problem or while studying for a test. You can also highlight any parts that you might need to discuss with a tutor. <img> Read ahead. Come to class having already read the material that will be covered. This will give you an opportunity to ask more effective questions, and go back over anything you didn't understand while you were reading through it. But, you don't necessarily need to understand it all during the first read-through. <img> Attend class and pay attention. Even if you don’t understand everything that is covered, you’ll be able to take notes and ask questions, and it’ll make more sense when you go back over it later. You will learn more by being present than you will by trying to catch up later. Engineering is a language of its own; the more time you spend listening to it, the easier it will be to understand it over time. <img> Study the material that is being covered, as you go along. Don’t wait until just before a test to begin studying. Engineering classes build progressively, and tests tend to cover both old and new material -- if you don’t understand something, address it immediately and work to fully understand it before moving on. This way, the days before a test can be spent going back over the things you need the most help with. <img> ", "Study with a group. Chances are, some of you will understand things that others don’t, and vice-versa. In a group, you can trade knowledge and help each other through things. It will also help you stay alert and focused.\nTalk to other students in your class, fraternity, or sorority to form a study group, or contact the Academic Services office at your school to find other students who are interested in forming a group.\nMeet in a quiet, private place where your group can focus.\nCome prepared to your group meetings, with an idea of the content that needs to be covered.\nBe an active participant -- listening to others work through a problem will not prepare you to work through it yourself.\nOffer your knowledge. Teaching someone else how to work through a problem can cement your own understanding. <img> Prepare study materials. Engineering courses range from calculus to chemistry, and require different tools depending on the information you need to study.\nUse flash cards to memorize definitions.\nKeep a “cheat sheet” of formulas that you can memorize and refer to as you’re working through practice problems.\nDraw and study any relevant diagrams. <img> Do as many practice problems as you can. You can’t rely on memorization for engineering and science classes. Repetition is key; how you work through problems in practice is how you will work through them on the test.\nWork through as many types of examples as you can to make sure that you can apply your knowledge to multiple scenarios and variations. You can rework assigned homework problems or look for extra problems in your text book.\nAssess each problem to determine what kind it is: general derivation, straight calculation, or design problem.\nDetermine what formulas you need for each problem.\nEngineering problems tend to have multiple parts. If you get stuck on one, identify and solve for any elements you do know.\nAlways double check your math, including the numbers you’re working with and any units of measurement. <img> " ]	[ [ "f86b22b1-86e6-46f1-91a5-ee8b7898e7a4", "763f6634-d69a-462c-a28b-7c4eb8e82637", "4f400ed3-3ce1-4602-b8a4-664cebe832f2", "ce94c3d5-4924-476c-823f-e4a0f9351ade", "7d512a49-e5f5-40ee-9512-73aa289ef438" ], [ "cfb29784-abf2-4602-a39b-c2ea3dc53c75", "09e4d420-d4be-499e-b073-28d34a2d1db2", "c832d291-1312-432d-9d7f-d69d4c5cc9d2", "8ab1ffa8-d7e7-4b73-94d0-a1b3796aca65" ], [ "7fcac7ae-9246-47ba-9d5a-5c1295bcb80a", "3395fd33-d174-4ee9-9274-feec4fd780ad", "c6aea575-a0b1-444c-803d-892d105aae2d" ] ]	[ [ "f86b22b1-86e6-46f1-91a5-ee8b7898e7a4.jpg", "763f6634-d69a-462c-a28b-7c4eb8e82637.jpg", "4f400ed3-3ce1-4602-b8a4-664cebe832f2.jpg", "ce94c3d5-4924-476c-823f-e4a0f9351ade.jpg", "7d512a49-e5f5-40ee-9512-73aa289ef438.jpg" ], [ "cfb29784-abf2-4602-a39b-c2ea3dc53c75.jpg", "09e4d420-d4be-499e-b073-28d34a2d1db2.jpg", "c832d291-1312-432d-9d7f-d69d4c5cc9d2.jpg", "8ab1ffa8-d7e7-4b73-94d0-a1b3796aca65.jpg" ], [ "7fcac7ae-9246-47ba-9d5a-5c1295bcb80a.jpg", "3395fd33-d174-4ee9-9274-feec4fd780ad.jpg", "c6aea575-a0b1-444c-803d-892d105aae2d.jpg" ] ]
Is the Phrase Once a Cheater, Always a Cheater True or False?	[ "B55KTNlPk8VU", "vOnWOePs2rN5", "n73OMG93ecBV" ]	[ "“Once a cheater, always a cheater” is not necessarily true. There are a lot of reasons someone might have an affair—and there are lots of reasons they might have an affair more than once. People cheat in relationships that are troubled, but they also cheat in relationships that are going well! Whether infidelity is a one-time occurrence or will happen again in the future is impossible to know for certain.\nNone of the reasons for an affair excuse the betrayal. Everyone is responsible for their own actions—and that’s good news. That means that no cheater is “doomed” to cheat again just because they cheated in the past. Change is always possible!\nInfidelity may look different to different couples, but essentially, cheating constitutes romantic or sexual activity with another person that your partner doesn’t consent to.\nBecause cheating can look different to different people, all couples should make sure early in their relationship that they’re on the same page regarding what “infidelity” is. Is it flirting? Emotional intimacy? Intercourse? Your mileage may vary (and so may your partner’s). <img> People who have cheated are 3 times likelier to cheat again. While cheating once doesn’t guarantee future infidelity, studies indicate people who have cheated once are more likely to cheat in the future than someone who has never cheated.\nSimilarly, folks who have been cheated on in one relationship are twice as likely to be cheated on in a future relationship, while folks who merely suspect infidelity in one relationship are 4 times as likely to expect infidelity in a future relationship. (In short, relationships are complicated!) <img> ", "Some people cheat due to low self-esteem. The truth is that while most affairs involve sex (or some sort of physical intimacy, like kissing), the motivation behind engaging in an affair is rarely about sex at all. Some unfaithful people cheat on their partners because they don’t feel good about themselves and believe an affair will either boost their self-esteem or offer a distraction from their life.\nWhen your partner cheats, it's typically because they're missing something, and it's not really about you. Your partner is just struggling to explain what they need.\nSome participants in affairs may even feel intimidated by their partner, with a fair number of cheaters statistically cheating with people who they find less attractive or desirable than their partners. <img> Infidelity may happen as a result of lack of intimacy or love. If a partner feels neglected in a relationship or as if the love has died, they may try to fulfill a need for intimacy by having an affair. The affair may also serve as “revenge” against a neglectful partner.\nOf course, feeling neglected by a partner is no excuse for cheating, and infidelity is always the fault of the cheating partner. The right thing to do when you’re dissatisfied in a relationship is to communicate with your significant other. <img> Cheating can occur situationally. If a person is drunk, overwhelmed, caught up in “the heat of the moment, or otherwise not in their usual state of mind, they may be more susceptible to cheating if the opportunity arises. In these sorts of situations, the infidelity is likely to be short-lived.\nGetting drunk or “caught up in the moment” is, of course, no excuse for betraying your partner. While situational influences may make it easier to cheat, everyone is ultimately responsible for their own actions. <img> Some people are serial cheaters. Some folks just cheat because…they like to cheat. Serial cheaters may suffer from narcissism that makes them gravitate toward relationships for validation, or they may be turned on by lying. Or both.\nOf course, if a couple agrees to an open relationship, this doesn’t constitute cheating.\nSome repeat offenders may be sex addicts. But this isn’t an excuse for infidelity, either. If someone can’t keep themselves from cheating, it is their responsibility to seek help. <img> ", "If they don’t seem sorry for cheating, it may be a sign they’ll do it again. Whether your partner cheated in a previous relationship or in your current relationship, if they seem remorseful for their betrayal, it is possible they won’t have another affair. But if they don’t seem sorry or ashamed of their infidelity, it could be a sign they wouldn't feel that bad about doing it again.\nYou can tell if an apology is sincere if the other person focuses on their behavior, rather than your response (i.e., “I’m sorry I lied” rather than “I’m sorry you got upset that I lied”).\nSomeone who is sincerely remorseful will also not get defensive when they apologize. (For instance, if someone cheats because they feel neglected by their partner, an insincere apology might go something like, “I’m sorry I cheated, but you caused it.”)\nReal remorse also includes attempts to repair the situation. Repair after infidelity might involve repeated checking in with the hurt partner after the fact (after all, an apology alone rarely makes up for a wrong) and actions to grow or move beyond the hurt, such as couples counseling. <img> Someone who continues to lie to you is likely to be a repeat offender. When someone who has committed infidelity wants to work things out and repair their relationship, they’ll be totally truthful about what happened. But if your partner tells you they only cheated once, but in fact, they cheated multiple times, or that they’ll never see the other person after this, but they end up seeing the person again (even platonically), take this as a major red flag. This person may try to pull the wool over your eyes again.\nThe only thing that can repair dishonesty is lots (and lots and lots) of honesty, slowly over a period of time, to rebuild the trust that was broken. Even small lies (including lies by omission) after a major betrayal can sow further mistrust.\nIf your partner is secretive about their phone or internet use, they could be hiding something. You can tell if your partner is hiding something on their phone if they are private about it, change their passwords, or text at odd times, like at night. <img> If they refuse to stop seeing the other person, it's a red flag. Sometimes, people cheat with coworkers or friends, and they may not want to give up the relationships they had with those people prior to their infidelity. If the offended partner asks that the cheating partner stop seeing the person they had an affair with, and the cheating partner refuses, this is a firetruck-red flag.\nIt isn't essential that a cheater give up relationships with affair partners they knew before the affair, but it's a very common and understandable request on the part of the hurt partner, one the unfaithful partner should attempt to accommodate if they are truly remorseful. <img> If someone cheats over and over again, they probably won’t stop. Again, “once a cheater, always a cheater” is not always true, but if your partner cheats multiple times, it could be a sign it’s time to end the relationship. As another popular saying goes, “Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.”\nEven if someone does cheat multiple times, it’s never the fault of the wounded party for “letting it happen.” But if your partner won’t stop cheating, it may be time to reevaluate your commitment to one another. <img> " ]	[ [ "7b4fce49-df0f-4bac-96aa-ffd42acf77a1", "bc26a7e5-4e7d-406f-8bcb-66381d8d1e22" ], [ "ef44148e-1846-4193-a015-d098148d2bb5", "472e6ad3-82b2-4214-965b-8573c0d3e75a", "960950eb-c5f5-4bbb-a021-bf54307e540b", "18c97b93-7792-49c6-9421-b21ecb88d2e9" ], [ "00e73e46-7cdb-4bf6-839b-d44877195d78", "ea7c4786-f6a2-479b-a4a3-e27cbb59f56e", "da8554e5-82fe-480a-811e-b0bc3c9d40a2", "bcc6e997-29f9-4103-9d48-e802b5f72396" ] ]	[ [ "7b4fce49-df0f-4bac-96aa-ffd42acf77a1.jpg", "bc26a7e5-4e7d-406f-8bcb-66381d8d1e22.jpg" ], [ "ef44148e-1846-4193-a015-d098148d2bb5.jpg", "472e6ad3-82b2-4214-965b-8573c0d3e75a.jpg", "960950eb-c5f5-4bbb-a021-bf54307e540b.jpg", "18c97b93-7792-49c6-9421-b21ecb88d2e9.jpg" ], [ "00e73e46-7cdb-4bf6-839b-d44877195d78.jpg", "ea7c4786-f6a2-479b-a4a3-e27cbb59f56e.jpg", "da8554e5-82fe-480a-811e-b0bc3c9d40a2.jpg", "bcc6e997-29f9-4103-9d48-e802b5f72396.jpg" ] ]
How to Make Money in Middle School	[ "dQehb9kYOJDY", "0f8OcMLuwBVn", "j2Q0MoFzHyvi" ]	[ "Decide what you want to sell. Food items or crafts, such as handmade jewelry, are two great options.\nSnacks, such as baked goods or beverages can be fun to make and often only require ingredients that are already in your pantry.\nIf you are an aspiring artist or enjoy making crafts, you can earn money by selling your handmade items. These custom made crafts also make great gifts which add to their appeal. Materials for crafts and jewelry making are often cheap and easy to buy at hobby shops. <img> Make the initial investment. If you don't have money to spend on your first batch of food ingredients or crafting materials, then ask your parents or someone else to lend you money (but be sure to pay them back). <img> Spread the word. Let your friends and others know about your plans. Generating excitement beforehand is a great way to gather potential customers.\nIf you’re allowed to, you may even want to make signs to hang up at school to let as many people as possible know about your new business. Just be sure to ask a teacher for permission first. <img> Pick a place to sell your items. You could sell your items at a physical location, for example, at a local farmer’s market or even online.\nIf you would like to sell your goods at a farmer’s market, search online or ask in person at the market to find more information about how to become an official vendor.\nLook for websites, such as Etsy, that will allow you to set up an online shop. Etsy and other websites often require parents or legal guardians to manage the account, so enlist the help of your parents if you choose this route. <img> Start selling your goods. Be sure to clearly label the prices of what you’re selling and have a friendly, approachable manner to attract customers. <img> Track the money you make. One simple way to this is by writing down your income and expenses in a notebook.\nKeeping track of your budget and income is essential to make sure that you are actually making money. For example, if you are making and selling jewelry, figure out how much you are spending on materials and keep that in mind when deciding how much to charge for each piece. You don’t want to end up actually losing money by charging too little! <img> ", "Decide what kind of work you would like to do. Opportunities to make money are often right in your neighborhood, from mowing people’s lawns, washing cars, dog walking, or babysitting.\nThink about what your strengths are. Do you have experience watching over younger siblings? Are you an animal lover? Do you like getting out and being active? Reflecting on these kinds of questions will help you pursue a job that not only pays but is emotionally rewarding for you. <img> Decide what a fair asking rate would be. Ask your friends or parents to find out what average rates are for each job. For example, babysitting can bring in anywhere from $10-25 per hour so be sure to do your research before telling customers! Feel free to negotiate with your customers if you feel like your services are worth more than they are offering. <img> Start advertising. Tell your friends and parents and ask them to spread the word that you are available and looking for a certain type of work. Most people find jobs through words of mouth but you can also reach more potential customers through other advertising means.\nPrinting out fliers offering your services and putting them up around your neighborhood with contact information can be a great way to reach people who might not otherwise know about your offering. You can also advertise online by posting on social media sites. <img> Be a hard worker. Always be punctual, respectful, and try your best.\nIf you have any questions, it’s always best to ask sooner than later. For example, if you become a dog walker, make sure to ask lots of questions about the dog’s behavior so you don’t have any nasty surprises or accidents while on the job. <img> Ask for referrals. After completing jobs, ask your customers if they will be willing to refer you to others. Referrals are the best way to increase your profits as people are more likely to hire you once someone else has vouched for you. <img> ", "Brainstorm what your skills are. Just because you are in middle school, that doesn’t mean you don’t already have specialized skills to offer. With some creative thinking, you might discover you already have a skill you can profit from.\nWrite down a list of your skills, hobbies, or interests. Maybe you are an aspiring barber, enjoy fixing broken electronics, are great at taking photos, or like to code in your spare time. Even activities that you consider to be hobbies, such as using Photoshop to edit your photos, could be a service people are willing to pay you for.\nIf you are feeling stuck, go and ask a parent or someone else who knows you well. They might surprise you by pointing out a skill you didn’t even notice you had. <img> Help older people with technology. A lot of skills you might take for granted, such as the ability to navigate the Internet and other programs such as Word and Photoshop, are actually very difficult for older people to pick up on. You could offer to help older people learn how to use their computers more effectively or how to use certain programs for an hourly fee. <img> Offer to clean or organize. Did you know that there are professional organizers, who work to clean or organize homes, office spaces, and more? If you are a neat and detail-oriented person, de-cluttering other people’s living spaces could be a perfect side job. <img> Become an event photographer. If photography is a hobby of yours, you could offer to be an official photographer for a birthday party, wedding, or other kind of celebration. Many people hire photographers for special events and pay well for it too.\nIf you know any professional photographers, ask them to take you along on their next photo shoot so you can watch and learn. <img> Offer to help advertise for a local business. If you know how to make logos or fliers, these are great skills you could offer to help out a local business. Don’t be afraid to walk into a store and ask to talk to the manager. Be sure to emphasize what specific skills you could offer to help their business grow. <img> Find an internship. Maybe you have a specific interest but know that you don’t have the necessary experience to find work in that area quite yet. A paid internship could be a great opportunity because, not only will you earn money, but you will also be getting paid to learn about your passion and gain valuable work experience.\nAsk at your school, local businesses, or online to find internships. For example, if you’re interested in botany, you could try visiting different florists, botanical gardens, and the like to see if they would be willing to take on an intern. <img> Work as a translator. Did you grow up speaking two or more languages? If so, you’ve already got an incredible skill others have to spend years learning. You might be surprised to learn how many people need help translating bills and other documents or even in everyday conversations. <img> Advertise your skills. Again, word of mouth can work wonders along with hanging up fliers and advertising online. <img> Start working. Once you have found someone interested in your service, negotiate a fair rate. Ask around or check online to find out what the average going rates are.\nIf you are just starting out, you may want to charge less in the beginning. Getting exposure and experience are more important at the beginning stage. Once you have a satisfied customer base, you can start charging more for your services. <img> Ask for referrals. Once you start getting clients, ask them for testimonials or if they would be willing to serve as references.\nAs a middle schooler, you may run into people who doubt your abilities because you are young. Having references will be extremely useful as they prove that you are serious about your work.\nThe more experience you have, the bigger your network of clients will get and eventually you may even start getting people coming to ask you for your services. <img> " ]	[ [ "c610e4a3-b811-4e8c-b3ff-87256bbf5e23", "4db59817-9caa-4116-bf9b-7afe1638522d", "b3540f3f-c210-4687-976a-ce5d4c5de6d3", "4f18186b-d70a-4de9-90e4-1ec2155a387d", "bb7d6a00-3cd1-4fc5-aa69-4fb17857ea1b", "cdb481a6-47fa-4a51-a6de-9676664db847" ], [ "ab891e1f-5ec7-4e80-ba8e-1b33cfcd0425", "60a00ff6-f712-4f83-a66f-684b61cb258d", "cdbe3054-5404-495f-80d1-7637b09e6561", "ebc5c1c3-a7f9-4fd9-98a9-0a7c8471766b", "87f2344c-002b-4cfb-8ed3-b2b7349d94c1" ], [ "d5352c1d-00bd-4a5a-8e6b-f2db850eab48", "3efab0b8-7943-4475-a1c1-85609774be85", "5d791ff9-7d35-4b26-99bd-ccb091fd32e9", "7a45e14f-d35c-49b0-85a0-84861b2466e1", "193fa3c7-25ff-4b71-b6d4-4d6de02e298e", "21da0007-b6c3-433d-89c3-7cd5356e0739", "2ab6725f-c5ae-40ad-93f7-cec0d08d50a7", "ea2be5ec-63c2-4ab5-b4a8-da21e68675f4", "459b78b4-2e15-48d6-a9c1-a119b1fd076b", "d32b3137-cb37-4f6f-a2ef-1128ae46de82" ] ]	[ [ "c610e4a3-b811-4e8c-b3ff-87256bbf5e23.jpg", "4db59817-9caa-4116-bf9b-7afe1638522d.jpg", "b3540f3f-c210-4687-976a-ce5d4c5de6d3.jpg", "4f18186b-d70a-4de9-90e4-1ec2155a387d.jpg", "bb7d6a00-3cd1-4fc5-aa69-4fb17857ea1b.jpg", "cdb481a6-47fa-4a51-a6de-9676664db847.jpg" ], [ "ab891e1f-5ec7-4e80-ba8e-1b33cfcd0425.jpg", "60a00ff6-f712-4f83-a66f-684b61cb258d.jpg", "cdbe3054-5404-495f-80d1-7637b09e6561.jpg", "ebc5c1c3-a7f9-4fd9-98a9-0a7c8471766b.jpg", "87f2344c-002b-4cfb-8ed3-b2b7349d94c1.jpg" ], [ "d5352c1d-00bd-4a5a-8e6b-f2db850eab48.jpg", "3efab0b8-7943-4475-a1c1-85609774be85.jpg", "5d791ff9-7d35-4b26-99bd-ccb091fd32e9.jpg", "7a45e14f-d35c-49b0-85a0-84861b2466e1.jpg", "193fa3c7-25ff-4b71-b6d4-4d6de02e298e.jpg", "21da0007-b6c3-433d-89c3-7cd5356e0739.jpg", "2ab6725f-c5ae-40ad-93f7-cec0d08d50a7.jpg", "ea2be5ec-63c2-4ab5-b4a8-da21e68675f4.jpg", "459b78b4-2e15-48d6-a9c1-a119b1fd076b.jpg", "d32b3137-cb37-4f6f-a2ef-1128ae46de82.jpg" ] ]
How to Style Leopard Shoes	[ "giOBocbC0M14", "GaI7vFlp3myR" ]	[ "Match the style of shoe to the occasion. Leopard flats are versatile and suitable to just about any occasion, but leopard print heels may be considered too flashy for most work environments. As such, it would be best to save those for a date or special night out, and stick with a pair of flats instead. <img> Treat leopard print as a neutral color when composing your outfit. This means that you can pair it with just about any color. It goes especially well with fall colors, however, such as: brown, burgundy, gold, navy, olive green, and plum. Black, tan, and red also work great with leopard print. <img> Don't be afraid of wearing leopard print shoes with other prints and patterns. You can wear up to three different patterns with leopard print shoes, but make sure that the patterns are of a similar size and proportionate to one another. Having the patterns share a common color (such as black) will also keep your outfit from being too clash-y or busy.\nPolka dots, plaids, and stripes are all great matches for leopard print.\nSpace the prints out and keep them separated with more neutrals. For example, you could wear leopard print shoes, solid-colored pants, and a plaid blouse. This will keep your outfit looking more balanced. <img> Pair them with matching accessories. Although not absolutely necessary, a matching leopard print belt or bangle could make your outfit more harmonious. Another idea would be to match an accessory to an element on your shoe. For example, if your shoe has a bright red sole, you could wear a bright red belt or handbag to match. <img> Match your jewelry. Some people like to keep their jewelry simple when wearing leopard print shoes, especially if the rest of their outfit is filled with patterns and prints. If your outfit is relatively simple, however, you could always try more ornate jewelry. Something with round shapes or elements would work especially well, because it would match the round leopard spots. <img> ", "Dress up with blazers, or dress them down with jeans. Flats are some of the most versatile and comfortable shoes to wear. Depending on what you pair them with, your outfit could be perfect for the office, a stroll about town, or even a special date night. Here are some outfit ideas for you to try:\nFor a casual look, try a pair of distressed jeans and with a cream-colored turtleneck sweater.\nFor an office look, try a tan suit coat over a white, button-up blouse tucked into black suit pants. Finish the look off with a skinny, leopard print belt. For something more casual, switch out the suit pants for skinny jeans instead.\nFor a special date, try a red-and-black plaid, button-up blouse tucked into a black skirt. Wear a light, tan coat that is a little bit longer than your skirt. Finish the look off with a black handbag, and a gold-and-crystal statement necklace.\nFor a chic, fashionable look, try a pink button-up blouse tucked into a pair of ankle-length, skinny, distressed jeans. Top it off with a pink handbag. <img> Pair heels with skinny jeans, boyfriend jeans, or cocktail dresses. Heels are versatile. They are typically paired with short, cocktail dresses for special nights out. They can be paired with jeans for something more casual, however. Here are some outfit ideas:\nFor something casual, try a black, leather jacket over a white t-shirt tucked into a pair of distressed boyfriend jeans.\nAnother take on the casual would be a blue-and-white striped shirt tucked into a pair of boyfriend jeans with a brown belt.\nA great, cozy, fall look might include a pair of skinny, ankle-length jeans and a cream-colored, cable-knit sweater.\nFor something more elegant, try a black cocktail dress with simple gold jewelry and a red or black clutch purse. <img> Pair leopard print booties with dresses or skinny pants/jeans. Like flats and heels, booties can look casual or dressy depending on what you pair them with. Choose jean or canvas material for something casual, and suit material for something dressy. When you wear skinny pants or jeans, be sure to roll the cuff up to your ankles. Here are some outfit ideas for you:\nFor a casual look, try a black shirt with skinny jeans. If it is nippy outside, throw on a black felt or wool coat, and a black scarf with white accents.\nDress in all black with black skinny jeans, a black fitted shirt, a black leather jacket, and a black purse.\nGo classic with white t-shirt tucked into a pair of black (or dark blue) skinny jeans. Throw on a black leather jacket with silver studs and a red-and-black plaid scarf. Finish the look off with a black handbag.\nFor a date or special night out, try a burgundy sweater over a light gold/sand-colored dress. Finish the look off with a black bag and some simple, gold jewelry. <img> Try leopard print sneakers for something more casual. Leopard print sneakers are best for casual, street style looks. They go best with t-shirts and jeans, but you can also pair them with other outfits too. Here are some ideas to get you started:\nFor something classic, try a black or white v-neck t-shirt and distressed boyfriend jeans.
