Give yourself time to study. Study for exams more effectively. Start your day out right. Replace negative self-statements with positive ones. Use effective test-taking techniques.

Never try to cram for a test. It doesn't work with most subjects, and it definitely won't work for math. It's generally best to err on the side of caution and give yourself more time than you think you'll need. That way if you get through everything and have a few extra days, you can spend that time reviewing the harder material a little more.  Start memorizing everything you'll need to know for the test (definitions, formulas, etc.) at least a few days, but ideally a week, before the actual test. You can use flash cards to memorize definitions, formulas, and theorems, then quiz yourself. Study in a place that is free of distractions. You'll need to be able to get through your work uninterrupted, so a library or coffee shop might be better than your dorm room or bedroom. If you've been keeping on top of the assignments all semester, you probably won't need to review everything equally. Some material will come easier to you, while other concepts and equations may be very difficult. You can study more effectively by reviewing the material you're already comfortable with and then buckling down for an intense study session on the material that you're struggling with.  Make two separate lists of hard problems and easy problems. The easy problems should be reviewed, but they won't require as much time as the hard problems. Take a practice test, if you have one. Set a timer for however long you'll have for the real test, and see if you can complete the test and do well on it within that timed period. Any problems you get wrong or that you don't finish before the time is up should be added to your list of hard problems. How you start out your day before taking an exam can have a big impact on how you feel. If you're tired, hungry, or anxious, you won't be able to focus on the problems as clearly as you would if you didn't have those distractions. Start your day out right, get to class early, and make sure you're prepared. Bring scrap paper, pencils/pens, and a calculator (if you're allowed to have one for the test). ...

Peel the clean fruits and vegetables. Steam Use the microwave if you don't want to steam on the stovetop. Chop the produce into tiny pieces. Feed the goldfish the finely chopped produce.

The goldfish will need very soft food, so you'll have to remove the peel from most vegetables. You can chop and use soft food immediately or peel and heat harder produce. If you can't use a vegetable peel, take a paring knife and peel away the outer layer from:   Apples Pears Grapes Mangoes Sweet potatoes and potatoes Pumpkin Zucchini Carrots Cucumbers the produce on the stovetop for 3 to 5 minutes. Heat about 1 inch (2.5 cm) of water in a pot until it comes to a boil. Then place a steamer basket into the pot and roughly chop the produce. Add it to the steamer basket. Then cover and steam the vegetables and fruit until they're tender when you poke them with a fork.  If you'd rather blanch the produce, add the fruits and vegetables directly to the boiling water in the pot. Boil the produce for 1 minute and then transfer it to a bowl of ice water to stop it from cooking. Ensure that the steamer basket doesn't touch the water in the pot. If you'd rather use the microwave, cut your choice of fruits and vegetables into chunks that are less than 2 inches (5.1 cm) in size. Put them into a microwave-safe container and pour in enough water to come 1⁄8 inch (0.32 cm) up the sides. Cover the container and microwave the produce until it's tender when you poke it with a fork. If the produce isn't as soft as you'd like, cover and microwave it in 30-second increments. Since fish have very small mouths and no stomach, you'll need to make the produce as small as possible. Set the already soft or cooked produce on a clean cutting board and use a knife to chop the fruit or vegetables into pieces that are 1 mm (0.10 cm) to 2 mm (0.20 cm) in size. To save time, put the food into a food processor and pulse it until it's finely chopped. Scatter some of the prepared fruits or vegetables into the tank with your goldfish. If you're only feeding 1 or 2 fish, just add a few tiny pieces. For a tank full of goldfish, add a few spoonfuls. The fish will immediately begin to nibble at the food.  Although goldfish can eat fruit, you should...

. Lip balms, especially products containing shea butter or various hydrating oils, are great for treating dry lips. Even if you generally don't have an issue with dry lips, lip balm can still make your lips even more kissable.  Though they may taste good, avoid lip balms with artificial scents, flavors, and/or colors. These additives can actually be drying to your lips. Common natural lip balm brands include: Burt's Bees, Carmex, Chapstick, C.O. Bigelow, Nivea, Softlips, EOS, and Banana Boat. Right before you kiss your partner, apply a menthol-based lip balm. Menthol activates your body's cold receptors, and when you make contact with your partner, you and your partner will feel tingling sensations throughout your bodies.  Wear lip balm with at least SPF 15 when outdoors in order to protect your lips from harmful UV rays. . You can make an exfoliating scrub for your lips using a sugar or brown sugar base and a liquid addition. Olive oil, coconut oil, and honey all work well as additions to a sugar scrub.  You can apply a generous coating to your lips and rub it in small circles using a toothbrush for extra exfoliation. Be sure not to scrub too hard, you just want to remove the dead skin, not make your skin raw. Vitamins B, C, and Omega-3 fatty acids are extremely healthy for your skin. Make sure you are getting enough of these essential vitamins to keep your lips plump and soft.

Use a computer animation program. Design your characters and props. Place the characters and props in the settings provided by the computer program. Animate the movie based on your storyboards.

There are many computer animation programs you can use online, with prices varying from very inexpensive to more expensive. Many programs do not require extensive knowledge about computer animation and are designed to help beginners learn how to make their own cartoon movies. You can also design your characters and add props to shots with a few clicks of a mouse, making it easy and fast to build your movie. A list of the top seven computer animation programs can be found here: http://www.freemake.com/blog/5-best-sites-to-make-animated-video-trouble-free/. They are rated based on their accessibility, their price, and their range of options. You can use the computer animation program to design each character in your cartoon and any props you may need for your movie. Many programs will provide models that you can edit and add to, adjusting them to fit the look of your characters. Most programs come with a library of props that you can access for your movie. You may also be able to build your own props if it is not a very common or well known prop, i.e. a magic wand or a special sword. Most computer animation programs come with several standard settings that you can use for your movie. Once you have designed your characters and props, you can start to place them in the settings to see how they look. If you are making a movie about a boy wizard in medieval times, for example, you may choose a castle setting or a rural farm setting. You may then place your boy wizard in the setting with props like a magic wand, a sorcerer's hat, and maybe even a fire breathing dragon. Use your carefully drawn storyboards as a guide for animating the movie. Focus on creating the movie one scene at a time, moving your characters and props in different settings within the computer animation program. Once you finish animating the rough cut of the movie, you should watch it from beginning to end, noting any scenes that appear underdeveloped or confusing and checking that the pace of the movie is appropriate to the content.

If you have a fear of blood, you can learn to relax your muscles and increase your blood pressure.
Blood is a fluid that circulates through the body. It is made up of red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. The red blood cells carry oxygen to the body’s tissues,

Tense the muscles in your legs, arms, and torso for 15 to 20 seconds. Monitor your blood pressure Expose yourself to your fear hierarchy while tensing your muscles. Work through your fear hierarchy at your own pace.

Pump your your muscles by flexing and relaxing them for 15 to 20 seconds. Rest for 15 to 20 seconds, then do a total of 5 pump and rest cycles, or until your face starts to feel flushed. Tensing your muscles increases your heart rate and blood pressure. This sends more blood to your brain, which can help prevent fainting. as you practice, if possible. Pumping until your face feels flush works in a pinch, but using a blood pressure monitor is the most accurate way to check your progress. If you have a home monitoring kit, an app, or a fitness tracker, take your reading before tensing your muscles. Do 5 pump and rest cycles, then take your blood pressure again.  During or immediately after tensing, your systolic blood pressure, or the top number, should increase by around 8 mmHg (the unit of measure for blood pressure). Take your blood pressure again 3 minutes after tensing. Your systolic reading should be around 4 mmHg higher than your first measurement. Your diastolic blood pressure, or the bottom number, should remain constant. Do 3 to 5 more tensing cycles if your blood pressure doesn't increase. After learning how to tense your muscles, expose yourself to triggers that gradually become more intense. Do 5 pump and rest cycles, then look at the first, least intense trigger. Tense your muscles periodically while looking at the trigger and encourage yourself with positive thoughts.  For example, the first step in your fear hierarchy might be to read about blood or blood withdrawal in a medical encyclopedia. Read for around 10 seconds at first, then slowly work your way up to at least 15 minutes. Additional triggers could include looking at red dots, actual pictures of blood, recordings of blood being drawn, and video of a bleeding cut. When you can tolerate the first trigger, proceed to the next. Tense your muscles before and while looking at triggers. Don’t rush yourself through exposure therapy, and move onto the next phase only when you’re ready.  If you have trouble with a step, start over and slowly work...

Swing through the ball. Land on your kicking foot. Follow up your shot.

Don’t stop when your foot hits the ball. Move your foot through the ball as it leaves your foot. This ensures your leg’s momentum is fully expended on the ball. Your foot will raise up at the end of the swing’s arc. Bring your foot down and plant it on the ground first before you try to move. That way the momentum of your swing is maximized and you stabilize yourself as you try to move. If possible, run after your shot. Putting pressure on your opponent may cause them to deflect or drop the ball, giving you a chance to follow your shot and potentially score.

Use a sling for your sprain. Ask about a cast for a more serious sprain. Try taping your elbow if you need to be more active.

Your doctor may recommend that you wear a sling to help keep your arm immobile for a time. You may need to wear the sling for a couple of weeks until the sprain heals. A sling will immobilize your elbow at a right-angle and hold it next to your body. If you have a more serious sprain, your doctor may recommend a cast or splint instead of a sling. These solutions will keep the elbow even more immobile than a sling, and you may need to wear 1 of them for up to 3 weeks. If you're an athlete, you may decide to keep using your elbow, even against doctor's wishes. If you do, you can stabilize your elbow using medical/athletic tape to help prevent overextension again. Have your doctor show you the best way to tape your arm to keep it immobile.

A pool cover is a

Sweep debris off the pool cover with a soft-bristled broom. Use a cover pump to drain any water on the cover. Remove the cover and lay it flat on the ground. Wash the pool cover clean with soap and water. Rinse and dry the cover to prepare it for storage. Fold the cover up to store in a bag or container.

A push broom is the best option since it allows you to shove the debris toward one edge of the pool without scratching up the cover. Try using a pool brush if you have one. You could also use some other tools to eliminate stubborn debris, such as a leaf blower for a relatively dry cover. Use the leaf blower to force debris to the side where you can sweep it up. If your pool cover has more than 1 in (2.5 cm) of water on it, scoop up debris with a pool rake. A pool rake isn’t actually a rake. It’s a scooping net meant for collecting leaves and other debris. A cover pump is similar to a regular pool pump, but it sits on top of the cover to clear it of water. Place it where the water is deepest, usually in the center of the cover. You can use a push broom to get it into position. Activate it to let it drain the water. The pump plugs into an electrical outlet like any other pumps your pool uses. Attach a garden hose to the other opening on the pump so it can siphon water back to an area of safe drainage, such as a nearby bucket. Pool covers tend to be big and difficult to lift on your own, so ask for help if it’s available. Have each person stand near one of the pool’s edges so you can lift the cover. Keep it in the air so it doesn’t get dragged across any rough spots that could tear it. After finding a safe spot for it, spread it out on the ground.  Note that if you have a mesh cover, it has to be detached from its retaining springs through the installation tool that came with it. Then, use a 1⁄4 in (0.64 cm) hex key to lower the holding anchors, preventing the cover from getting caught on them. While you have the cover spread out on the ground, inspect it for damage. Replace it if you notice any tears. At least you will save some time by not having to clean and store the old cover! If you move the cover onto your lawn, don’t keep it there for a long time. It can damage the grass. Sweep or spray away any debris still left on the cover. The amount of soap and water you need will vary depending on the cover’s size...

If nothing else, having a buddy in class can make it more enjoyable. Obviously, if friends of yours from other classes share the same gym class or period as you, hang with them. If not, reach out to others. You could try:  Complimenting people when they score or pull off an impressive feat. Telling someone they must be tough as nails when they recover from a spill. Making a sarcastic joke about the joys and wonders of phys ed to others who look less than pleased to be there. Dive right in and play to the best of your ability. Don’t act afraid of the ball or other players. Impress them with your self-confidence, even when you’re not particularly good at whatever you’re playing. Of course, you don’t want to be seriously injured, but don’t be afraid of scrapes and bruises. Recovering from a spill and walking it off without a complaint can be just as impressive to other students as hitting a homerun. That spill you took might really hurt, or that ball you missed should have been an easy catch. Whatever the goof was, just laugh it off. After all, it’s only gym class, not the World Series, so don’t take things too seriously. Show anyone who might be tempted to make fun of you that you are perfectly cool with laughing at yourself. Sure, some students might get really competitive over a baseball game in phys ed. Just keep your cool and shrug it off if a teammate gets upset with you for ruining a play. Keep in mind that everyone else probably thinks that this kid looks way more foolish for getting all worked up over a pointless game in gym class. If you happen to be really, really good at sports in general or one in particular, save the superstar plays for the school team or league sports. Although this may seem like a great chance to impress people, keep in mind that others aren’t as skilled as you.

Dab a little tea tree oil on the affected area. Try honey on your whiteheads. Apply heat only as a last resort. Stay away from lemon juice, vinegar, and other kitchen acids. Keep your skin hydrated by drinking plenty of fluids. Alter your diet if you notice certain foods cause acne flareups.

Tea tree oil is a natural essential oil that may be effective for combating whiteheads and acne. To use the oil, dilute it to about 5% in a carrier oil (any vegetable oil), then apply directly onto the whiteheads using a q-tip.  Use tea tree oil with caution and always do a patch test first, as it can cause irritation or an allergic reaction. Don't let the word "oil" put you off -- tea tree oil will not clog your pores like other oils. Honey is known to have antimicrobial properties that may effectively treat whiteheads and acne. Dab a little honey directly onto whiteheads or you can apply it all over as a face mask. Many people consider manuka honey or raw honey the most effective options, although this is not guaranteed. Many people hold their face over steam or apply a hot compress to open up pores, allowing trapped materials to escape. This can help in some mild cases. However, heat can irritate sensitive skin, which can make the acne worse. Gentle, lukewarm showers and facial washes are usually more effective. Acidic foods are not intended for use on skin. They can cause stinging, peeling, or even serious damage if left on for too long. Lemon juice and other citrus ingredients are extra dangerous, as they can react with sunlight to cause severe rashes. Dehydrated skin may produce excess oil to make up for the lack of moisture, and this may lead to worse acne. If your skin feels dry or your lips are cracked, you may be dehydrated. Water is a great place to start, but milk, tea, juices, and soups all count toward your daily fluid intake. In general, follow these guidelines:  Men should drink about 15.5 cups (3.7 liters) of fluids daily. Women should drink about 11.5 cups (2.7 liters) of fluids daily. Despite popular belief, there's no evidence that greasy food causes acne in most people, though there is a strong correlation between the two. If you notice a possible connection between a particular food and acne, it won't hurt to avoid it. Just remember, there is no universal "acne diet," and an extreme...

Sponges don’t last forever, and the longer you have them, the more bacteria they hold. Try to replace your kitchen sponge weekly if you use it every day, or biweekly if you use it less often. If your sponge starts to smell bad or becomes discolored, throw it away and replace it immediately. Instead of using a sponge, use other materials to clean up raw juices from meat. Opt for a dishcloth, washcloth, or paper towel to wipe down cutting boards and counters. Disinfectant wipes are also a good option for wiping down counters that need to be cleaned. Sponges have crevices that can harbor bacteria easily, but cloths and wipes are less absorbent.

Decide what specialty interests you. Stay up-to-date with your practice. Consider becoming an advanced practice registered nurse (APRN). Be aware of other career paths.

There are a variety of fields for nurses to practice, including pediatrics, adults, OB/GYN, geriatrics, community health, occupational health, rehabilitation, surgery, neonatal, intensive care, and emergency. You will likely have already started thinking about this during your RN educational training. Each RN program gives their nursing students clinical rotations through which they gain experience in these various areas of the hospital and community.  Nursing students may have a full semester in a particular clinical rotation, such as pediatrics, adult or community health. They will also experience several hours in an intensive care unit, emergency room and neonatal unit. Not all schools will give nurses rotations through a physical rehabilitation unit for patients following strokes or spinal cord injuries. Most schools will expect that nurses get experience with geriatric care while caring for adults. Once you know what field of nursing you'd like to work in, you can apply for jobs in that field. Even after completing the required education and certification, nurses should continue to read medical journals, be aware of the policies of the healthcare organization they work for, and take additional courses in medicine. Scientific and medical knowledge and technologies are constantly changing and evolving and so staying up-to-date is key to providing effective healthcare. The term advanced practice registered nurse is an umbrella term used for nurses who have achieved at least a master’s degree in nursing (MSN). The academic program to become an advanced practice nurse is one to two academic years, depending upon the specialty, school, and your previous work experience. There are four main advanced practice settings in which nurses can practice under this APRN umbrella:   Clinical Nurse Specialist. These nurses typically work in hospitals, clinics and nursing homes. They handle a wide variety of physical and mental health problems and may work within the fields of research, education and administration.  Nurse...

It may be an entry you end up treasuring a few years down the road.   Meditate. You can download some guided meditation apps onto your phone to help you relax, too. Drink an herbal tea, such as chamomile, to help you feel sleepy. You will have a full day ahead of you on your wedding day, no matter what time your ceremony starts. Go to bed at a reasonable hour to account for the amount of time it may take you to even get to sleep in the first place. The more sleep you can get the night before the wedding day, the more energy you'll have to make it through one of the biggest days of your life.  An adequate amount of sleep also helps regulate your emotions. Keep in mind that a good night’s sleep will help you stay calm and relaxed the next day as well!

This includes products such as soap and laundry detergent, as well as things such as lotion.  Avoid bubble baths for children. Use non-drying, mild soaps such as Cetaphil, Dove, or Aveeno. Avoid any products that contain alcohol, as these can dry out skin. Avoid using things like fabric softeners or dryer sheets, as these usually have fragrances that can cause irritation. Fabrics such as cotton, silk, and bamboo are often less irritating on the skin than polyester.  Wool should be avoided, as it is known to irritate the skin. Wash new clothes before you wear them. This can help remove any agents left over from manufacturing that might irritate your skin. Heat and sweating can make the condition worse, so it is important to be aware of the temperature of your environment. Always rinse your skin off after sweating. In addition to the fluid loss that can cause dry skin, sweating also leaves salts on your skin that can cause irritation and flare-ups. Eczema is known to go hand-in-hand with dry skin, so adding moisture to the environment can help to diminish the severity of symptoms. Keep your humidifier clean. The humidity in a humidifier is a perfect place for mold, mildew, and bacteria to grow. Clean it regularly according to its instruction manual. This can help to reduce the sensation of itching. Soak bandages or light towels in cool water. Wring them out until they’re moist but not soaked. Wrap them around your skin in the affected areas. Over-the-counter anti-itch soaks containing oatmeal are available at your local pharmacy or drugstore. In general, do not bathe children with eczema more than 2-3 times per week, or you could actually make the condition worse.  Another option is to make a homemade anti-itch bath soak for eczema by adding baking soda and oatmeal to a bath. Soak for 10 minutes. You can also try a bleach bath, which will help reduce bacteria on the skin. Add ½ cup of household bleach to a bathtub full of warm water. Soak for about 10 minutes.

Damage to these structures are indicated by these symptoms:  Head shaking Pain Rubbing the ear(s) on the floor Pawing or scratching at the ear Head tilt Loss of balance or falling over Turning in circles towards the damaged ear The only way to be totally sure that your dog's eardrums are fine is by having them examined by a veterinarian or veterinary technician. The vet, or vet tech, will use an otoscope, which is a lighted instrument, to peer into the ear canal to visually see the eardrum. It is important that the eardrum does not have any damage and is not torn. If you apply medicine to an ear with a damaged eardrum it could damage the ear further, including the risk of full hearing loss.

Measure your waist. Measure your leg length. Choose your fabric.

Sarongs are generally just large rectangles of fabric that can be wrapped and tied in different ways. They typically measure anywhere from 66 to 72 inches (168 to 183 cm) across, depending on your measurements. Using a fabric tape measure, measure your waist. To measure your waist, measure around the narrowest part of your abdomen between your rib cage and hips.  If the measurement is 33 inches (84 cm) or less, a 66-inch (168-cm) sarong will be plenty. If your waist measures more than 33 inches (84 cm), consider making the sarong 72 inches across (183 cm). The width of a sarong usually matches the length from hip to foot, so it generally ranges from 36 to 44 inches (91 to 112 cm). To determine the proper length for you, use your measuring tape to measure the length from your hip to your heel. You can use your leg length to determine the length of your sarong, or you can make it longer or shorter based on your preferences. For instance, if you want your sarong to be knee-length, make a note of the measurement from your hip to your knee. Sarongs are summertime accessories that are designed to be folded and tied, so they are usually made of thin, lightweight materials, and some of them are sun-protective. Popular fabrics for sarongs include:  Cotton voile Polished cotton Satin Nylon blends Chiffon fabrics

Stand up for yourself. Conquer your fear of the unknown. Get to know yourself.

Whether you are in an abusive relationship or you just aren't happy with your partner anymore, there comes a time when you have to put your foot down and do what's best for you.  People stay in unhealthy relationships for many reasons, such as guilt, financial stress, or children. It's important to realize that you are actually trapping yourself in the relationship by focusing on these fears. You can start standing up for yourself in small ways by, for example, developing your own interests, making your own decisions, and spending more time away from your partner. Many people are reluctant to leave long-term relationships because they are not used to living alone and do not know what the future will hold for them if they leave. In order to start over as a single person, you need to be willing to take the plunge and accept that you don't know what will happen next.  If you're not quite ready to leave the relationship yet, try to focus on having compassion for yourself. If you consciously work on doing things that bring you more happiness, you will eventually develop the strength you need to leave a relationship that is holding you back. Don't be too hard on yourself if you don't have the courage to leave the relationship right away. These negative thoughts towards yourself will only worsen your self-confidence, which will make it even harder to leave. Some people are actually happier being single, and there's nothing wrong with that. If you find that you don't have a problem with living alone and not having a partner, don't try to force yourself to do anything different. Even if you don't like being single, take this opportunity to find out what's really important to you in life.  It's easy for people to lose a bit of their identities in a relationship, so it may take some time to adjust to being on your own. Whether you plan on being single forever or just for a short period of time, learn to embrace your individual interests and preferences.  Take time to explore all of your interests.

Recognize the good and bad in your life and examine how you’ve been affected by each. Practice mindfulness. Identify whether your inner monologue is an optimist or a pessimist. Look for the positives in your life. Remember that true optimism is different from blind optimism. Write yourself daily positive affirmations. Avoid comparing yourself to others. Work on improving your perspective in 1 or 2 areas of your life. Smile as often as you can.

Optimism doesn’t mean you have to feel “happy” all the time. In fact, trying to force feelings of happiness during potentially traumatic experiences can be unhealthy. Instead, attune yourself to the full range of emotions in your life, accepting that the negative as well as positive feelings are a natural part of human experience. Trying to repress a certain type of emotion can cause severe emotional distress. Not focusing more on one type of emotion than the other can actually help you become more adaptive and proactive in future unexpected situations. This will increase your ability to be optimistic and resilient in the face of uncertainty.  Negative feelings can become a conditioned habit over time. Avoid blaming yourself for negative emotions and associations. Blame is unhelpful because it doesn’t look forward to how you can grow; it looks backward at what has already happened.  Instead, focus on being mindful of when these negative emotions occur. A journal could help you do this. Write down when you experience negative feelings or thoughts, then examine their contexts and explore alternative ways of responding to them.  For example, imagine that someone cuts you off in traffic. You respond by feeling angry, honking your horn, and perhaps yelling at the driver even though s/he can’t hear you. You could write in your journal what happened, how it made you feel, and what your immediate response was. Don’t judge yourself as “right” or “wrong,” just write down what happened.  Next, take a step back and think about what you’ve written. Was your response in accordance with your values and the type of person you want to be? If not, what could you have done differently? What do you think you were really responding to? For example, perhaps you weren’t really angry at the driver; maybe you had a stressful day and allowed your stress to explode on that one person. Look forward when you write these entries. Don’t use them just as a place to wallow in negative feelings. Think about what you can learn from the...

If you're scratching your body, it's probably because you're trying to get rid of an itch.
If you're scratching your body, it's probably because you're trying to get rid of an itch

Identify the itching spot. Try a moisturizer or an alternative to scratching. Scratch in slow, circular motions.

In the broad majority of cases, it will be very easy to figure out where you need to scratch. Other times, it may actually take some time before you're able to pinpoint. If you're having trouble figuring out where the itch is on your body, take a few seconds to relax and get in touch with your body. Scratching lightly in big circles should help you find the spot quickly enough. While some occasional light scratching isn't usually a problem, it's still preferable to try other things first. An itch is most often the symptom of an underlying problem, most often dry skin. Moisturizing your skin with an emollient may remove the need for scratching to begin with. Give the itchy area some moisture, and see if the itching stops. It may well be that your skin was simply trying to tell you something all along!   Use a wet compress if you have an irritated area. Put a clean hand towel in a bowl of warm water and several drops of essential oils. Wring it out and apply to the afflicted area. You should feel a sensation of pleasant relief within several seconds.   Other mild itching may go away within seconds if left unattended. As a general rule, drinking a lot of water throughout the day will help to keep the rest of your body hydrated. When it comes time to actually scratch, it's important to keep your scratching limited to small, slow and steady circular movements. Keep your touch light and gentle. Scratch on and around the itchy area. Within a few seconds, the itch should go away.  As with most things, it's best to keep your scratching within moderation. Anything more than a light scratch could actually exacerbate the scratch you're trying to solve! Limit yourself to scratching sessions of 30 seconds maximum.

Take your tea to the next level by adding a sprinkle of dried spice. Make a flavored simple syrup to infuse your tea with a new essence. Add soda water to make a sparkling iced tea. Stir in fresh fruit to add a splash of color and invigorating flavor.

Cinnamon, cardamom, clove, star anise, or even chili powder would give your tea an additional warming element. Simply stir a pinch, or about 1/4 teaspoon (.5 grams), of the chosen spice into your tea and enjoy. If you have cinnamon sticks, add 1 to your mug before pouring in the hot water. Mint or raspberry are great flavors that will complement the lemon in your hot or iced tea. Heat up 1 cup (200 grams) of white sugar and 1 cup (240 mL) of water, and simmer them together until the sugar dissolves, which takes about 5 minutes. Remove the mixture from the heat and stir in either 1 cup (25 grams) of mint leaves or 1 cup (125 grams) of fresh raspberries. Let them steep for 30 minutes, then strain the liquid into a glass jar to use in your tea. Add about 1 to 2 tablespoons (15 to 30 mL) of simple syrup to your cup of tea to sweeten and flavor it all at the same time. Simply fill your glass partially with iced tea and top off the rest with soda water. The more soda water you use, the more carbonated your tea will be. Feel free to use plain soda water or flavored. Soda water is also often called sparkling water, seltzer water, or fizzy water. Orange slices, raspberries, strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, peaches, pineapple, and many other fruits are great additions to your iced tea. Add about 1/4 cup (45 grams) of fresh fruit to your glass and pour the iced tea over top of it.  The fruit is delicious to eat when you finish drinking your tea. You could even freeze some fruit and use it in your iced tea in place of actual ice.

Pin your fabric so that the wrong sides of your fabric are be facing out. Sew your second seam, this time using a 3/8 inch seam allowance. Iron the completed double seam one more time.

This should be easy, as you have just ironed them into place.  Again, put your pins in horizontally all the way down the side of the seam so that they can be easily removed while you are sewing.  The frayed edge should now be concealed between the two pieces of fabric and the outer edge is just the neat row of your first set of stitches. You need this amount of allowance so that the frayed edge of the fabric is tucked away neatly between the two seams. As you sew, remove the pins. Once again, remember to clip threads and remove any stray pins after sewing the seam.  If your seam allowance is too small on the second seam, the rough edges of the fabric could end up sticking out of the second seam on the finished side of your project.  Its better to be cautious and make your seam allowance a bit generous. Press the seam to one side, depending on where you would like it to lay in your finished project. Your raw edges are no longer exposed as they are enclosed inside your newly made French seam.

Find out how much sleep you need. Recognize the importance of a good night’s sleep. Keep a sleep diary. Adjust your sleep patterns as necessary.

Everyone needs adequate sleep to function properly and to stay healthy, but sleep requirements vary by age and activity level. Understanding how much sleep you need can help you plan for a good night’s sleep.  Newborns 0-3 months old require 14-17 hours of sleep every day.  Infants 4-11 months old need 12-15 hours of sleep every day.  Toddlers 1-2 years old need 11-14 hours of sleep every day.  Preschoolers 3-5 years old need 10-13 hours of sleep every day.  School age children 6-13 years old need 9-11 hours of sleep every day.  Teenagers 14-17 need 8-10 hours of sleep every day.  Adults, aged 18-64 need 7-9 hours of sleep every day.  Older adults above 65 years, need 7-8 hours of sleep every day.  Anyone who is very active, stressed, or sick, may need to take short, daytime naps to rest and recharge. Regardless of age and general sleep recommendations, your body requires adequate rest to function at its best.   Make sleep a priority in your life. It contributes to your body and mind’s optimal functioning.  Numerous negative consequences of insufficient sleep include disease, chronic inflammation, high blood pressure and stress, diabetes, obesity and mood disorders.  Lack of sleep also affects mental performance such as the ability to focus. It may affect your ability to do your job well. When you wake up every day, record in a sleep diary how long and well you slept, and how you felt after waking up. Your sleep diary can help you identify patterns that are hindering (or helping) your sleep.  Your sleep diary may indicate factors that are impacting your sleep. Remove or adjust these as necessary and continue to write in your diary. For example, you might notice that on days you nap that you don’t sleep as well at night. If this is the case, try skipping your nap and see if that helps you get to sleep on time. Talk to your doctor if you have trouble sleeping over a long period of time or notice distinct patterns in your sleep. There will be circumstances in which you need to adjust your sleeping habits.

Imagine speaking your first thoughts but don't actually say them. Write down your thoughts instead of speaking. Practice active listening. Try meditative practices to calm your mind.

When you're just starting out with keeping your mouth shut, it can be difficult to not respond when you want to. To help you get over this, think about what you were going to say and imagine how the conversation would play out. Then, don't say what you were going to. This is a really effective technique if you get emotional or upset and your immediate urge is to respond. If you still have a difficult time keeping your mouth shut, try writing down your thoughts in a journal. Sometimes, just putting your thoughts down is enough to remove the feeling like you have to talk. Then, you can throw away what you wrote or use the note to phrase what you're planning to say. For example, your note might say, "Why did you schedule that party without asking me?! You're thoughtless sometimes." Then, throw the note away without saying that or respond by saying, "I wish you hadn't scheduled the party without talking with me first." Pay attention to not only what the person is saying, but how they're saying it. Look for non-verbal cues, such their facial expressions or what they're doing with their hands. You'll have a better idea of what they're trying to communicate and they'll feel more comfortable speaking if they know you won't cut them off. For example, if you ask someone if they'd like to babysit your kids and they say, "I'm not sure if I can," don't interrupt them. If they're also frowning and fiddling with their hands, you may tell that they feel uncomfortable with the idea and you shouldn't press them on it. It will take some effort to keep your mouth shut, especially if you keep thinking of things you'd like to say. Train your mind to become more peaceful.

Cut your plums and remove the pits. Lay the plums on your dehydrator tray. Place the tray in the dehydrator. Check the plums every 4 to 6 hours. Check every 2 hours when you begin removing prunes. Allow the plums to dehydrate for 14 hours.

Remove the stem. Then, cut the plum in half around the pit using a sharp pairing knife.  Pull the two halves of the plums apart. Remove the pit and discard. If you don't have a pairing knife, you can use another sharp knife. However, be sure to avoid a large knife. Plums are small, and you want to make sure you maintain control of your knife as you cut around the pit. It's a good idea to push the plums close together, as this will eliminate the need to do two batches. However, make sure the plums are not touching. This is important for air circulation, which allows the plums to dry properly. You should dehydrate your foods at 115 °F (46.1 °C) when working with a conventional dehydrator. However, if you have an excalibur dehydrator, start out at 145 degrees.  Make sure the dehydrator is at the right temperature before placing the plums in the oven. Place the tray in the dehydrator slowly to avoid knocking the plums together. You want to turn the plums at some point to complete the dehydration process. Check every 4 to 6 hours to see if the plums are ready to turn.  When plums are ready to turn, the upside should be very dry. The plums should release easily from the tray. If the upside of the plum is still moist, and the plum does not come off easily, leave the plums for a bit longer before turning them. The plums will turn into prunes at different rates. When you notice some plums completely lack moisture, they've completed the pruning process. These should be removed from the dehydrator. After this, start checking on the plums ever 2 hours, as they're getting close to being done. Plums will take roughly 14 hours to fully dehydrate. However, they may take longer or shorter depending on the quality of the plums. This is why it's important to check your plums regularly during the dehydrating process. When fully dehydrated, you will have black, wrinkled, raisin-like prunes.

The best way to write a testimony is to write it from the perspective of someone who is not a Christian.
The first step in writing a testimony is to determine what you want to say. The best way to do this is to think about the most important things you want to convey to your audience. For example,

Pray for guidance. Read an example. Think about your past. Write an outline.

Your testimony is a strong tool you can use when witnessing to non-Christians. Since the primary purpose is to honor God and advance His kingdom, praying to the Holy Spirit for guidance before you set pen to paper is a logical first step. Get an idea of what to include by reading an effective testimony someone else wrote. You can either use a contemporary example or look for an example provided in scripture.  One of the best examples you can read through is Paul's testimony in the Bible. To read his testimony, check out Acts 22 and Acts 26. You should also ask yourself if there were any testimonies you heard or read prior to your conversion that left an impact on you. If so, recall the details of that testimony and determine what made it so powerful from your point of view. More specifically, think back on your life and attitude before you gave your life to Christ. Ask yourself what issues were important to you and what arguments for conversion had the greatest impact on your final decision. Seek to include these elements in your own testimony. More specifically, ask yourself about the obstacles you faced and how you felt when you were alone with your thoughts. Remember what it was that made you crave change, and any attempts you made to change in other ways prior to your conversion. Before you write out the actual testimony, it can be a good idea to write an outline or to otherwise summarize each section of your testimony. As a general rule, your testimony should be divided into three parts: your life before Christ, your decision to convert, and your life after conversion.

If you're experiencing any of the above issues, you may have a bad speaker.
If you're experiencing any of the above issues,

Check your speaker and receiver specifications. Check the connections. Look for physical damage.

There are a variety of factors that could potentially be causing your speakers to sound distorted or fuzzy. Mismatched equipment is one of the most common factors. Check that the amplifier and receiver support the ohms that the speakers draw, and that the speakers can handle the wattage output of the amplifier. Check the documentation for all of your equipment to ensure that everything matches. If you've accidentally swapped the positive and negative wires on your speakers, you likely will not hear anything coming out of them. Double check all of your connections, and ensure that the black cables are inserted in black clips, while the red cables are inserted in the red clips.  If the speaker is too far away and you aren't using a proper gauge wire, you can experience a lot of distortion. Try to move the speaker closer to the receiver and then shorten the wire, or run newer, lower-gauge wire. Crossed wires can short out your speakers and cause serious damage. Make sure the black and red wires are not touching when bare at the ends. Check that the speakers are not physically damaged. A blown-out speaker can sound terrible, so ensure that the woofers on the speaker aren't torn. If you see any physical damage, try replacing the speaker.

Give it away. Recycle the glass. Contact your waste management company. Cover the surface with tape. Wrap the glass. Label the exterior. Place the glass beside the receptacle.

In the case of mirrors or glass tabletops especially, you may be able to give the object to a friend or even donate it to a charitable organization. By giving the glass away, you can get rid of it, help someone else, and keep the glass out of a landfill. Ultimately, whether or not you can recycle your specific piece of glass depends upon the area where you live. Mirrors, window glass, and other large pieces of glass have a different chemical composition than standard bottle glass, and many recycling plants may not accept them. If your municipality does accept window glass, etc., then they'll likely have a specific process for it. Contact them and follow any specific instructions. This process will most likely involve taking the glass down to a recycling center since the trucks that run recycling routes aren't typically equipped for nonstandard items. If it looks like sending your glass to the dump is the only option, then you’ll want to start by contacting your area’s waste management service. Different companies will handle waste of different sizes. For truly large pieces of glass, your waste management company may not dispose of it in a single piece. You'll likely find information with weight and dimension restrictions on the company's website or by calling. If they tell you you’ll need to break up the pane first, then the second method will be more suited to your needs. If your piece of glass is small enough to dispose of whole, you can trash the glass by taking steps to prepare it for disposal first. Since multiple waste management personnel will have to handle the glass, you want to help ensure that it doesn't break and become a hazard in the process. Start by covering the surface of the glass with duct tape. Tape across the glass will help keep the pieces in place and limit splintering in the event that is does break.  Tape both the front and back surfaces of the glass. The more of the surface you cover the better, but if you don't want to waste a large amount of tape, then you can simply place a large...

That's okay too––go with whatever feels right as you develop the character. Give your character a unique, memorable name. Baby name books are a good resource. You can also check sites that help new parents to name a baby.

Recognize separation anxiety. Try counterconditioning your dog. Desensitize your dog to solitude. Be patient. Consider alternative arrangements.

Separation anxiety can take various forms in a dog, but the most common signs of separation anxiety are destroying the house/apartment and barking incessantly. These behaviors are typically only engaged in when the dog's owner is at work or otherwise out of the house, and if the dog is not destructive, some owners may not even be aware that their dogs have separation anxiety. Common signs of separation anxiety to look out for include:  following you from room to room, no matter how briefly you are gone  shaking, panting, or crying when you get ready to leave for the day  urinating or defecating indoors while you're not home  chewing household objects when you're not home  scratching or "digging" at the floor, walls, or doors when left alone  possible complaints from neighbors about barking or howling when left at home alone Counterconditioning is a common treatment method for dogs that typically involves training the dog to associate something fearful with a reward. In the case of separation anxiety, instead of fearing someone or something, the dog fears being left alone. To counter condition  separation anxiety, you'll need to train your dog to associate being left alone with something the dog enjoys (like treats).  Whenever you leave the house, try giving your dog a puzzle toy stuffed with food. Something hollow that can be stuffed with treats, spray cheese, or low-fat peanut butter will keep your dog occupied for at least 20 to 30 minutes, which may be long enough for her to forget that she was afraid of you leaving.  When you get home, remove or hide the puzzle toy(s) so that your dog becomes conditioned to only having access when you're out of the house.  Be aware that counterconditioning typically only works for mild cases of separation anxiety. Though puzzle toys will certainly be enjoyed by your dog no matter how severe her condition, you may need to resort to stronger approaches if your dog suffers from moderate to severe anxiety. If your dog has moderate to severe separation anxiety, she most likely...

Focus on cardio exercise. Introduce more activity to your daily life. Do strength training. Don't spend too much time on crunches or sit-ups.

Rather than doing a ton of crunches and push-ups, cardiovascular exercise is the best thing you can do to burn calories and eliminate belly fat.  However, rather than slogging at a steady pace on the treadmill, you should try to do interval training. Interval training involves integrating short bursts of high-intensity exercise into your daily workout. Try sprinting for 30 second intervals throughout your run, or set the elliptical, treadmill or exercise to interval mode in the gym. To trim belly fat, aim to do 30 minutes of high intensity cardio exercise at least four times per week. Aside from the time you spend working out in the gym, it's a good idea to incorporate more activity into your everyday life - this way you can burn more calories without too much effort.  Make some simple changes, such as taking the stairs or biking to work a couple of days a week. If you work a desk job, consider switching to a standing desk. Simply by standing instead of sitting for a couple of hours a day you will burn more calories. Take this as an opportunity to do some spring cleaning, to paint the house or fix up the garden - having a project to work on will help you to increase your activity levels without even realizing it! Also try to do active things purely for enjoyment - play soccer with your kids after school, take up a dance class, or spend a fun day at the beach. It's an excellent idea to incorporate some strength training into your weekly workouts. Strength training includes things like squats, deadlifts, bicep curls and leg presses.  Although these exercises don't burn as many calories as cardio, they will benefit you in the long run. They will help you to build strength and muscle, which speeds up your metabolism and helps you to burn fat more easily, even at rest. Exercises like squats and deadlifts will also help you to build muscle around your core and keep your waistline trim. However, it's very important to have the correct form while performing these exercises, so if you've never done them before...

Pack for survival. Get a room in the lower levels of the hotel. Learn your escape routes when you arrive at the hotel. Check some essential features of the hallway and of your room. Put your room keys and flashlight in your shoes before you go to bed.

Bring a flashlight and potentially a battery-operated smoke detector. These may seem like overkill, but they don't cost much or take up much room in your luggage. Organize, don't agonize. The flashlight could save your life if you have to quickly navigate a dark hallway or stairwell, and the smoke detector can alert you to fires while you're sleeping.  Check the batteries on each of these before you leave. In most parts of the world, smoke detectors are mandatory in hotel rooms, but when was the last time you tested one?  If you don't bring a smoke detector with you, at least make sure the one in your room works. If a fire starts, you'll want to get out of the building as quickly as possible. This can be difficult if your room is in the upper floors of a high-rise hotel. When you make your reservations, ask for a room on the ground floor or close to it. If you're not able to do this in the reservation process, request it when you check in. If you're in an earthquake area, taking this measure could be helpful. If a fire started in your home, you'd probably know the best way to get out and you'd probably be able to find your way there even in complete darkness. If you can't do this in your hotel, you're risking your life.  Ask for a map of the hotel at the front desk.  If you can't get a map at the front desk, you may be able to find one on the inside of your room's door, depending on where you're traveling. As soon as you get to your room, study the map and find the nearest exit.  Then find the alternate exits.  Walk the potential escape routes from your room all the way to the outside of the building, counting the number of doors between your room and the exits and noting any unusual features that may help you find your way.  Check for potential hazards or obstructions along the way and try to make sure the exit doors open.  Don't plan on using the elevator. If a blaze were to suddenly erupt, you can't leisurely test certain features of the building. Doing this ahead of time saves you time and reduces your...

You can use a saw to cut the plywood to create a curve for your Warped Wall.
The Warped Wall is a large-scale, temporary structure that is built in a park or other public space. It is made of wood and is designed to be easily dismantled and moved. The Warped Wall is

Soak 2 4 by 8 ft (1.2 by 2.4 m) sheets of plywood in water to soften them. Lay sheets of plywood in 2 L-shapes. Tie one end of a piece of string to a pencil and anchor the other end. Draw a wide curve on both sets of plywood. Cut the plywood along the curve you drew. Stabilize the plywood sides with lumber. Nail in crossbraces along the curve. Lay the wet plywood on top of the crossbraces and nail it down. Finish with a piece of PVC at the top of the curve to act as the ledge.

If you try to bend dry plywood into a curve for the Warped Wall, it will crack. Place the plywood in a pool or use spare pieces of wood to prop up the edges of a tarp. Hold the plywood in the water by placing a cinder block in the middle, and leave it there while you build the rest of the frame. These will eventually be the sides of your Warped Wall. The amount of plywood you will need will depend on the size you want your Warped Wall to be. On the show, the Warped Wall is 14 to 16 feet (4.3 to 4.9 m) high, but you can adjust the height to your preferences.  For most walls, 3 pieces of plywood will be enough. Laying the plywood in an L-shape will allow you to create a curve along the side of your wall. By tying the free end of the string to a fixed location, it will act as a compass, creating a circle as you travel around the center point. This will help you create the curve for your Warped Wall. The string should be long enough so that the pencil can sweep across the plywood in a gentle curve. If you don't have anything to tie the string to, have someone stand in one place and hold the string. After you draw the curve on the first set of plywood, arrange the second set so the string is anchored exactly the same distance away, and draw the same curve again. Use a saw to carefully cut both sets of plywood. Once this is done, you have the sides for your Warped Wall. Use 4 by 4 in (10 by 10 cm) or another heavy type of lumber to create a frame on your plywood. This will reinforce the plywood and will give the final structure more stability. Make sure you leave enough space between the frame and the edge of the sides for your plywood curve. Insert wooden boards cut the width of your wall all along the curve to attach the 2 sides of the wall together. Space these crossbraces out evenly along the length of the curve. About 8–10 inches (20–25 cm) should be sufficient. You can also add extra plywood to what will eventually be the top and bottom of your wall at this time.  The length of the crossbraces should be cut...

Find a quiet time to talk to your spouse. Ask your partner how they feel about your relationship. Discuss why you want to go to marriage counseling. Decide together what needs to be done to save your relationship. Determine if your partner is willing to work with a counselor. Find a counselor together.

The decision to attend marriage counseling should be a mutual discussion. Find a time when neither you nor your spouse are busy. Talk privately away from children or other family members.  Let your spouse know you want to talk about something serious. Make sure they're not distracted by television or the computer. You might say, “Hey, can we take an hour tonight to talk about our relationship?” It is important to consider your partner's feelings when deciding to get marriage counseling. Perhaps they have also felt tension in your marriage or perhaps they do not think anything is wrong. When your partner speaks, listen to them. You may feel defensive or upset by their comments. Instead of arguing with them, say something like, “That's probably a good reason why we should attend marriage counseling.” Tell your spouse that you think it would be a good idea to get marriage counseling. Focus on building and strengthening your relationship.  State your perspective in “I” statements to avoid blame or arguments. For example, instead of saying “You nag me about everything,” you might say, “When I am criticized for everything I do, it makes me feel as though I am not valued.” Remind your partner what is good and wonderful about your relationship. You might try to prepare 5 positive statements about why your marriage is worth saving. Your partner might suggest trying alternatives before getting marriage counseling. Take this as a good sign. Instead of getting counseling, you can try developing your own plan. If the plan doesn't work, then you can see a counselor.  For example, you might decide to implement a weekly date night to help restore intimacy or you may agree on new responsibilities around the house. Your partner may ask you if you want a divorce. Answer this question honestly. If you both agree without hesitation that you want a divorce, marriage counseling may not be able to save your relationship. For marriage counseling to work, both partners must make a commitment to give it their best effort. Understand...

You need to feed your starter.
The first thing you need to do is to make sure you have a container large enough to hold the starter. You can use a small mixing bowl that will hold between 2 to 4 cups (500 to 1000 ml). You can use almost any type of container made for food; however

Get a container. Mix up the starter. Find a home for your starter. Wait. Feed the starter. Feed the starter again. Wait some more. Switch to unbleached all-purpose flour. Feed the starter yet again. Wait some more.

You'll need some sort of container to provide a home for your starter. Use a small mixing bowl that will hold between 2 to 4 cups (500 to 1000 ml). You can use almost any type of container made for food; however, it is recommended to use a non-reactive container such as glass or plastic. Plan to cover your container with plastic wrap or a clean cloth. Mix 1/4 cup (50 ml) of water with 1/2 cup (50 g) of whole grain flour. If you're weighing your ingredients, use 50 grams each of flour and water. Mix the ingredients until thoroughly-combined and cover with plastic wrap. Once you've stirred the starter, scrape down the sides of the container. You want to make sure you don't leave "food" on the side of the container to feed mold growth. You want a place where the starter isn't likely to be disturbed (dogs, children, curious husbands) and where you can maintain the temperature within the 65° to 85°F (18° to 30°C) range. If you need a warmer area, turning on the light in an oven (but not turning the oven on) will often get you the temperature you need. Similarly, the top of many refrigerators is also a literal hot spot. Sourdough is all about patience. What are you waiting for exactly? You want the starter to become active and start bubbling. In time it'll rise and grow like it's alive. How long are you waiting? 12 hours is usually enough for the starter to become active, so definitely make other plans. Bubbling can begin a few hours into the wait, or it can take as long as 24 hours -- it all depends on the ingredients you used and the environment it's in. If the starter is not active in 12 hours, give it another 12 hours for good measure. If it still isn't active, give it another 12 hours. And if it's not active after 36 hours, check the steps above to make sure you did them right. If everything was right, throw it out and try again -- it's probably not going to happen. If you've tried twice with no results, try a different brand of flour or type of water. When the starter is active, you have to feed it. Add...

Fixed needs are necessary expenses that remain the same month after month.  These include rent or your phone bill. Variable needs are necessary expenses that may fluctuate from month to month.  These include gas for your car and food. Wants are nonessential expenses.  These are things you could do without if you had to.  These include take out coffee, cable and entertainment.

Determine the number of hits. Find the number of bases on balls. Note the number of times the player was hit by a pitch. Count the number of at bats. Factor in the number of sacrifice flies. Plug your values into the OBP formula.

Recall that a batter earns a hit (H) when he hits the ball into fair territory and safely reaches first base. As an example, take Charles Cobb Blackmon of the Colorado Rockies. Say that when he played against the San Francisco Giants, he scored 2 hits. In this case, H would equal 2. Once you’ve noted the number of hits, note also the number of times the player reached first base because he received four pitches outside the strike zone. In the example above, Charles Cobb Blackmon was walked just once. In this case, BB would equal 1. In addition to hits and bases on balls, you need to know if the player ever reached base because he was hit by a pitch. In the example above, Charles Cobb Blackmon did not get hit by a pitch. Therefore, HBP would equal 0. In order to determine the on base percentage, you need to know how many times the player batted. Most batters will stand to hit 4 or 5 times during a game, but there is tremendous variation here. In the example above, Blackmon stood to bat 5 times, so AB would be equal to 5. If the player hit any sacrifice flies, you need to know that to determine the on base percentage. In the example above, Blackmon did not hit any sacrifice flies. SF would therefore equal 0. To find the on base percentage, you add the players hits, hits by pitch, and bases on balls together; you then divide that number by the sum of the at bats, hits by pitch, bases on balls, and sacrifice flies. The formula looks like this. In the example above, you would plug Blackmon’s stats into the formula. Here are his relevant stats.You would add H + BB + HBP to get 3, and AB + BB + HBP + SF to get 6. Then divide 3 by 6. Blackmon’s OBP for this particular game was therefore 0.5.

It seems like a fun idea to be self-employed, working your own hours, but will it be cost-effective? Keep track of your expenses.

If you're selling $200 bucks worth of ice-cream a day, that's great, but not if you're spending $300 on organic milk. After calculating your expenses, price your products so that you'll profit. Don't forget to calculate the cost of labor. Your time is one of the biggest expenses you have in street sales. Account for it. In the beginning, you may make less than you hope, so you'll have to balance out what's possible to sell and what's possible to make. What's your story?

From zombies to princesses, Halloween costumes fit right in for the Time Warp. The flashier and zanier the better, whether that's piles of pink ruffles and glitter, or skeleton face paint. One of the dancing characters from the Rocky Horror film version, Columbia, has the flashiest costume of all. Cover yourself in gold or rainbow sequins and glittery makeup to imitate her. Bonus points if you wear a glittery top hat and fishnet stockings, or cover your eyebrows with makeup. The characters Janet and Brad are the quiet, "normal" people caught in a group of strange people, which means their costumes are usually easier to imitate. Dress as Janet by wearing a light pink dress and a white sweater, plus a sun hat. Dress as Brad with "hipster" clothing, for instance a tucked-in button-up shirt, khaki pants, and combed-back hair. At many performances of the Rocky Horror Picture Show, where the Time Warp dance comes from, people might make fun of you for wearing stripes. This supposedly references a scene in the movie when someone wearing a striped shirt was caught on camera accidentally, but it's a tradition of it's own at this point.
