Reinsert the spring assembly and the pop rivets. Clamp the vise back on and rotate it the same amount as before. Remove the vise, reattach the awning leg, and peel the tape off. Snap the bracket legs back in, then remove the tape and screwdriver. Clean and lubricate the track, then cover the open end with tape. Slide the fabric into the track with 2 other people helping you. Remove the tape from the brackets and screw them back into place. Snap the legs back into place and straighten the awning. Reinsert the screws.

Pick the spring assembly up and slide it back into the roller tube. Rotate the endcap until the line you made earlier matches up with the awning control lever. Use a pop riveter to reinsert the rivets. Do the top rivet first, then rotate the tube and do the bottom rivet. Place the vise grip back onto the bolt. Lock it into place, then rotate it counterclockwise. Count the rotations as you rotate it, then stop when you reach the number you counted earlier. Take the vise grip off first. Pop the awning leg back into place, then reinsert the bolts and screws. Peel the tape off of the bracket. Take the legs that are attached to the RV, and lower them into the legs on the ground. Snap them back into place, then peel the tape off of the top brackets. Remove the Philips head screwdriver from the back/left end of the roller tube and replace the plastic cap. Cover the end of a flathead screwdriver with a paper towel, then stick it into the track. Slide the screwdriver back and forth along the track to remove any dirt. Lubricate the track, then cover the split end with tape.  Spray the inside of the track with spray silicone lubricant, just like you did for the 2 channels on the roller tube. The split end of the track is the end that you pried open with the flathead screw driver. The edges are sharp, so cover them with masking or electrical tape. This is just like when you slid the fabric out of the track, but in reverse. Have a person hold up each awning leg.  Have a third person slide the end of the fabric into the split end of the track. Walk alongside the RV, tugging on the fabric as you go. Prop the legs on the ground, and roll the awning out by 1 foot (30 cm). Remove the tape from the brackets, then screw them back into place. When you are done, you can snap the legs back into place at the base of the RV. For an even more durable finish, coat the screws with a waterproof sealer first. Silicone caulking will work great here. If you have not already, snap the awning legs back into place at the base of the RV. Unroll...

Pick the right kind. Avoid dependency. Prepare to restock your system. Talk to your doctor.

Colon cleansing can take a few forms. You can perform a colonic, also known as colon hydrotherapy. This is done using a small tube inserted into the rectum, through which warm water is gently pumped. You can also take an oral solution to increase excrement output, which are essentially homemade laxatives.  Doing water or salt water enemas at home without a professional assistance is not recommended unless instructed to do so by a doctor.  Most mainstream physicians do not recommend regular colonics for healthy individuals, though some natural doctors and other healthcare professionals recommend colon cleansing once or twice a year to help release toxins. Colon cleanses can be very helpful, but can also become harmful over time. Even natural, homemade colon cleansers can be hurtful to you. Just because something is natural doesn’t mean it is harmless and a serious problem can occur if you begins to depend on colon cleansers rather than your  healthy, natural colon function.  This dependence is called laxative abuse and can be an addiction much like any other. Laxative abuse can result in damage to the kidneys and the cardiovascular system and can be life-threatening.  Never use a cleanse more than every six months unless under the care of a health professional. Once you do a colon cleanse, you need to put back in certain nutrients, called prebiotics and probiotics, into your body. Be prepared to restock and support your colon bacteria by eating foods that contain good bacteria for at least one to two months after you cleanse. These foods include:  Bananas Garlic Leeks Wheat bran Asparagus  Sauerkraut Kefir Yogurt Kimchee Aged cheeses Talk to your doctor before you try any colon cleanse. Discuss the type of cleanse you plan on doing to be certain it isn't going to hurt you. Certain herbs, fruits, and vegetables can interact with prescription medications, so be aware of the side effects of your medications.  As a general rule, anyone with a condition that affects the digestive tract, the kidneys, the liver, or...

Stretch your fingers. Do hand exercises. Practice speed drills.

The strength of your muscles is secondary to the flexibility and agility of your muscles. One way to improve the latter two attributes is by properly stretching your fingers before practice. Bend back each finger until it feels comfortable and hold them in that position for several seconds. Do the same for each thumb, but also stretch your thumb into your palm.  Get the blood flowing through your fingers by pretending to type rapidly in the air. Roll your wrists both clockwise and counterclockwise. Spread your fingers out into a fully extended position, then release the tension. After stretching out your hand, you can strengthen the muscles you commonly use during guitar play. There are two main exercises you can do without playing the guitar itself. Work out the extensor muscles of your fretting hand with these two exercises:  First hold your left hand (or fretting hand) in a relaxed position. Extend your thumb to your pinky and then pull them apart slightly. Continue this motion with the rest of your fingers: ring, middle, and then your index finger. Repeat as many times as you want, but don’t over-exercise your muscles. Hold your fretting hand relaxed with your palm facing up. Extend your pinky finger slightly and then flex it. Continue the same exercise with the rest of your fingers: ring, middle, and then your index finger. After properly warming up your hand, you can practice a few lines on your guitar. Set a metronome, if available, to a comfortable tempo. For beginners, use 80 bpm, and experienced players can play at around 120 bpm. Set your hand so your index finger is on the first fret. Then play this chromatic riff across each string: 1-2-3-4. Use an individual finger to play each fret.  For an added exercise, do the same motion in a descending order. Start with your pinky on the fourth fret of the last string. This technique will exercise each finger.  Once you become comfortable performing this exercise, increase the speed of your metronome.

Know the symptoms of colic. Check the horse's temperature. Get your horse up and walking. Know when to call the veterinarian. Remove all sources of food. Let the professionals work. Move on to painkillers. Ask about IV fluids. Check when you can return to feeding your horse. Be slow about returning the horse to work. Understand surgery may be required. Continue to evaluate your horse. Educate yourself on the types.

The symptoms of colic can vary based on how severe the colic is. Though the pain is in the stomach, your horse may show signs that don't automatically point to the stomach.  Mild colic may exhibit in your horse as restlessness, such as pawing at the ground. Your horse also may keep curling his lips or keep looking around to his backside.  In a moderate case, your horse may want to lay down more often. He may also pee more often.  With severe cases, your horse may start rolling on the ground with violent motions. You may also see in an increase in respiration and sweat.  Symptoms of gas colic in particular are loud noises in the abdominal area and gut pain that comes and goes.  Impacted colic may prevent the horse from defecating, and he may not want to eat. He will also have pain in the abdomen. Horses should defecate at least 6 times in a 24-hour period, so you should be on the lookout if you suspect your horse has colic. A horse's temperature should be between about 99 degrees and 101 degrees Fahrenheit. You can use a rectal thermometer designed for horses to check your horse's temperature. If it's elevated, that's another indication your horse could be colicky. Only try to treat the horse yourself if he is exhibiting mild symptoms of colic. If the horse is already in the moderate or severe stage, move on to calling the vet. The first step to treating your horse yourself is to get him moving. Walk your horse around for about 30 minutes. Walking can help your horse if the colic is caused by gas. It may also provide a distraction from the pain he's experiencing. However, walking him too long can make him tired if he's already feeling bad. If your horse is continuously looking at his side and even trying to bite that area, it's time to call the vet.  Other symptoms that tell you it's time to call the vet are if your horse is laying down too much, not eating, or not defecating. Also call the vet if your horse's pulse is over 50 beats a minute. Because colic is often linked to your horse's food, it's important...

Ask open-ended questions. Ask about his interests. Be direct. Make subtle physical contact if you like him.

These kinds of questions can help a shy guy open up and talk about himself and can also lead to him feeling known, liked and comfortable with you. Avoid asking questions that can be answered with a quick “yes” or “no” because these may create awkward pauses and make the conversation feel forced. Good examples of open-ended questions include:  "How did you get interested in carpentry?" "What brought you to live in San Francisco?" When you ask about all of his favorite things, such as sports, movies, books, and more, you’re showing him that you’re interested in getting to know him better. Once you’ve talked a bit about each other's likes and dislikes, you’ll most likely find some commonalities that you can discuss further and bond over. Make sure to show interest in him and not just his role or activities. Hobbies and interests are good, neutral places to start, but when you're both ready, be sure to look deeper. If you hang out together, make sure to tell him you’d like to see him again when you part ways. Verbal clarity will make him more sure of your feelings and desires, which will ease his uncertainty and draw him out of his shell. Also, pay attention to his reactions when you say things that directly communicate your interest in him. If he smiles or agrees enthusiastically, you can assume that he may be interested in you too. Making physical contact releases oxytocin, the bonding hormone, so initiating touch may quickly start making him feel liked and close to you. Touching him breaks through a kind of barrier that may lead him to feel less nervous or unsure about holding your hand or putting his arm around you later on.  Ask permission first, and make sure he's open to that sort of attention and affection. Try lightly and briefly touching the outside of his arm to communicate assurance while you’re having a conversation with him. If you aren’t interested in him romantically, be cautious with physical contact. Giving him frequent hugs, for example, may seem friendly to you but he may interpret it as a...

Sit tall and deep in the saddle. Use your rein aid. Lengthen your legs slightly. Create a slight resistance in your seat to suggest a halt. When the horse shifts down, apply your driving aids.

Your body should be flowing with the movement of the horse's, rather than holding stiffly. Relax your shoulders up and back. This way, the horse can more easily sense signals from the seat. When you're first learning the half-halt, it's likely you'll use your hands more than when you get accustomed to the signal. Let the signal be very slight: turn your wrists in to increase contact with the bit.  Do not pull on the reins. You'll probably notice the horse lighten the bit and stride more evenly – however, this is most likely not a true half-halt (where the pace is maintained in the hind legs), but rather a disengagement of the hocks and consequent disruption of energy. If the horse hollows his back and raises his head, these are also signs that you need to continue to adjust your signal by engaging other aids. This signals the horse to deepen his hind-leg step. Briefly tighten your lower back muscles and squeeze your rear end, as though you were sitting on a swing and propelling yourself forward. If your elbows are hanging at your sides, the slight change in your back should travel through your arms into the reins, giving the horse enough of a signal that you do not need to manipulate the reins at all. Once you sense a bit of "halt," signal to him to keep moving steadily forward. You may do this primarily with your seat or leg, or with the two in combination.   Push your seat in a forward motion. Apply pressure with your leg lightly at the horse's side. Keeping your legs lightly against the horse's side throughout the half-halt helps ease the transition into driving forward.

If you experience spotting or breakthrough bleeding for an extended amount of time, schedule an appointment with your doctor. Your doctor needs to know if you have spotting or breakthrough bleeding for more than seven days of your cycle. In addition, spotting or bleeding that persists for more than four months warrants medical attention.  See your doctor for new episodes of spotting. The spotting or breakthrough bleeding may be caused by something unrelated to your birth control pills. If you are continuing on the same regimen of birth control pills but begin to experience mid-cycle bleeding, this may be a symptom of another problem and should be evaluated by your doctor. Breakthrough bleeding may be a sign of other problems including pregnancy or conditions involving cervical changes. If you have made lifestyle changes such as smoking, or have started taking new medications that may be interacting with the birth control pill regimen, this can cause breakthrough bleeding as well. Many birth control pills are made to contain the lowest possible amounts of some hormones. Your doctor may change your pills to a type that contains slightly higher levels of estrogen if he or she is aware of your ongoing problem with spotting. Changing to a pill formulated with a different type of progesterone, such as levonorgestrel, may also help.>  If you continue to have problems with spotting or breakthrough bleeding on your current pill, talk to your doctor about either switching to another strength or extending the number of days you take active pills vs the placebo pills at the end of most packs. There are many types of pills that are effective at preventing pregnancy. Finding the best one to suit the hormonal needs of your body is simply a matter of being patient and trying a few different types. Doctors routinely start with products that contain the lowest possible amounts of either estrogen, progesterone, or both. Changing to a brand with a slightly higher dose of estrogen usually stops the problem with spotting and...

Read the package instructions. Choose the appropriate liquid to mix with cereals. Toss out unused cereals. Be patient with your child.

Regardless of what type of cereal you purchase for your baby, it's important to make sure that you follow the mixing instructions correctly.  This will help ensure your baby is getting the right amount of cereal.  Each infant cereal will have specific instructions listed on the actual product.  Before you purchase a product, make sure you read over the instructions. If you need to cook or heat the cereal, make sure to follow the directions to ensure the cereal is prepared correctly.  Always allow a cereal to come down to room temperature before feeding it to your child. The cereal should be mixed until it's a thin and quite liquid consistency.  You may need to add more milk or formula to get it to the right consistency. When preparing an infant or baby cereal, you'll need to mix the dry cereal with a liquid.  Take advantage of this opportunity to add more nutrition to your baby's cereal.  Most cereals will tell you to mix with breast milk or formula.  This helps increase the nutrient content (especially in terms of protein and fat) of the cereal.  It's essential that you do this step. You can mix your infant cereal with water if you do not have any breast milk or formula available to you.  However, try to limit how often you do this. Like most baby foods, you do not want to keep prepared cereals long.  Feeding your child leftovers can put them in danger of getting sick.  You need to be extra careful with how long you store uneaten baby cereals.  Babies and infants are the most susceptible to foodborne illness since their immune systems are still immature. If you make extra baby cereal, only put a few tablespoons into a bowl.  Do not feed your child from the larger serving.  Saliva can contaminate the cereal if you were to store it the refrigerator. Throw out any extra cereal your child didn't consume from their pre-portioned serving.  In addition, only keep baby cereal for 24 hrs. All children tolerate foods at different stages and at different times.  As you and your child get the hang of eating solids,...

Decide what it means to be "genuine. Spend time with those who charge you up. Wake up! Get vulnerable. Be honest. Know your impact. Look how you want to look.

" This may not be as easy as it seems, considering the immense influence the media has on us all. Sure, we are all unique individuals, but few, if any, people have absolute resistance to the persuasive influence of advertisers, the media, and peer pressure to conform. Because it's so difficult, decide what genuine means to you. The beauty of it is that you get to choose. Does being genuine mean pursuing your own fashion? Does it mean saying whatever crosses your mind? Does it mean showing your emotions, whatever they are? Does it mean ignoring what's popular? There are many takes on this concept -- what speaks to you? If you've gotten rid of your toxic friends (we all have 'em), this shouldn't be too hard. Who do you crave hanging out with? Who always makes you feel good about yourself? And then think about this: who is the person you are afterward? We all have versions of ourselves. Some are "worse" than others, as they can't all be the same. The idea here is to bring out the best you and to make that "best you" a constant. And the best you is naturally genuine, obviously. You know the phrase "stop and smell the roses?" Kinda like that. Tons of us go around in a technology-induced stupor, barely doing the thing we call living. We're unaware of how we come off, how we actually feel, how we influence others, etc. So wake up! Pay attention the world around you. Stop right now and look around your environment.

There's so much going on in our heads sometimes it's hard to realize we're playing those games we talked about, especially when we've been playing them since we were babies. If it would help, start watching other people. How are they placating others? How do they phrase things? How do they position their bodies?

Apply fertilizer once every two weeks. Water papaya seedlings and established plants regularly. Apply bark mulch or wood chips if necessary. Inspect the papaya's leaves and bark regularly for signs of disease or insects. Harvest papaya fruits when they reach the level of ripeness you desire.

Apply fertilizer to growing plants every 10–14 days, diluting it according to the fertilizer's instructions. Use a "complete" fertilizer, not a specialized one. Continue to apply at least until the plants are about 12 inches (30 cm) tall. After the plant reaches this size, commercial growers continue to fertilize papaya every two weeks with 1/4 lb. (0.1 kg) complete fertilizer near but not touching the base of the plant. Follow this practice if you would like to hasten the plant's growth, gradually increasing the amount of fertilizer and length of time between applications until the papayas receive no more than 2 lb. (0.9 kg) every two months starting at seven months old. Papayas can be easily damaged by standing pools of water, but may not produce sizable fruit without regular water access. If planted in loam that holds water well, water no more than once every three or four days. In sandy or rocky soils, increase this to once every one to two days during hot weather. Allow a few more days between waterings during cooler seasons. Apply pine bark, another bark mulch, or wood chips around the base of the plant if you need to reduce weeds or if the plant looks withered from failure to retain water. Layer 2 inches (5 cm) of mulch around the papaya, no closer than 8 inches (20 cm) to the trunk. Spots or yellowing on leaves or bark indicate possible disease. Black spots on the leaf won't typically affect the fruit, but may be treated with fungicide if the infection is severe. Curling leaves may be a sign of picking up herbicide from a nearby lawn. Other problems, including insects or full plant collapse, may require consulting an expert gardener or local agricultural department. Tart, green fruits may be eaten as a vegetable, but many people prefer fully ripe, yellow or orange fruits for their sweet taste. You may harvest anytime after the fruit is mostly yellow-green, if you would like them to finish ripening indoors, away from pests.

You'll have an easier time adding volume to your hairstyle if you're working with clean hair. Gently dry off with a towel when you’re finished. Rub a palm-sized amount of mousse between your hands, and then run your fingers from the front to the back of your scalp. Massage the product into sections of hair as you go. Using mousse will help add volume and shape to your hair. For bonus utility, opt for a mousse that doubles as a heat protectant. Dry your hair from the back of your head to the front, so that your dry back hairs can serve as a surface to layer your longer front hairs. As you dry your hair, use a wave-like brushing motion. This will lock your hair in an upward sweeping motion, while creating volume throughout your hair. For short hair, this may be all you need to get it to stand straight up. Longer hair may need the help of additional product. At the end of your 5-6 minute drying interval on medium/hot, switch the setting on your blowdryer to cold. Stick with this setting until your hair is completely dry. Using the cold setting for the final minutes of your drying session will help lock in the shape of your hairstyle. Rub a dime-sized amount of product between the palms of your hands, and incorporate it into your freshly volumized locks. Using product will help your hair hold its shape while maintaining a natural look.  If your hair is thick, use a hair clay. If your hair is on the thinner side, opt for a paste. Using too much product can weigh down your hair, which can prevent it from standing up. When in doubt, use less clay/paste than you think you’ll need. You can always apply more later. Rub a quarter-sized amount of product between your fingers, and use the product to sculpt your hair into spikes. When using gels and waxes, start from the roots of your hair, and comb upwards with your fingers. Gels and waxes will sculpt your hair in a firm, spiky style that will appear wet all day.

Most charitable organizations have steps for you to follow when you are donating money. You can usually mail a check or money order. Many organizations also provide secure ways for you to make your donation online.  Make sure to specify whether or not you are making an anonymous donation. You should also specify whether you are making the donation on behalf of a group. Many organizations also offer choices of where your money goes. For example, for cancer research, you could choose to donate to research or specify that it goes to families of children with cancer. Decide ahead of time where you would like to direct your funds. Many people like to claim a tax deduction when they donate to charity. You can print off forms online so that you can provide your donors with a receipt. Just make sure that you understand how to fill out the forms in case your donors have questions for you. Keep any receipts for money you personally spend on your fundraiser. These expenses might be tax deductible, too. It takes a lot of effort to effectively fund raise. Chances are, if you've raised a lot of money, then you have had a lot of help.

Send your message to the teacher's professional, school-issued email account, unless they have provided you with a personal address. Your teacher may have given you an email address in the course syllabus. If not, you'll need to track it down yourself. If you can't ask in person, and you can't find the email on the school website, try asking around. One of your friends or classmates might know. You can also ask the school secretary, other teachers, or even parents. Before actually sending your email, give it one last look-over to ensure that everything is spelled and arranged correctly. You might want someone else to look over the email for you for this step. Click your inbox's Send button to do so. Once you have sent the email, you can check the "Sent" section of your inbox to be sure that the message went through. Teachers are often busy people, and you should not expect an immediate response. If your concern is very complicated, or not very urgent, then you might be waiting for a few days. It might take your teacher longer to respond if you send your email over the weekend or during a holiday.  It's always possible that your teacher doesn't feel comfortable answering your question over email. Don't stress if your teacher doesn't respond to your email. Since there's a record of you sending the email and not receiving a response, you can use their lack of response as an excuse if need be.

Move the conversation away from the classroom. Have a friendly, approachable demeanor. Find out what she’s interested in. Share your interests with her. Get to know her friends.

Since you know you have at least your class in common, that’s a great way to start getting to know each other — by talking about the work, the teacher, your classmates, etc. But over time, you want to get to know other parts of each other, too, so talk about things that have nothing to do with class, or even school. Don’t try to hard to be “cool.” What you think looks “cool” might come off as distant or condescending. It’s much easier for a girl to talk to a guy who’s just being himself — open and honest.  Smile and laugh easily — girls love guys who enjoy themselves. Face your body toward her when you’re speaking to her. Don’t be afraid to make eye contact with her when you’re talking. Once you’ve broken the ice, you want to get to know each other. Try to find out what she’s interested in. Ask what her favorite classes are, whether she does any after-school activities, and what she likes to do in her spare time.  Try to steer conversations toward topics that interest her. This will make her look forward to talking to you, since she’ll know you enjoy listening to her talk about something she loves. You want her to get to know you, too, so talk about the things that are important to you. If you just let her talk about herself all the time, then eventually, you’ll stop liking her because you’ll feel like the friendship is all about her. It’s important to maintain a balance, so you’re both sharing parts of your life with each other equally.  Be open and honest. Don’t just talk about the things you think she wants to hear about — talk about the things that are actually important to you. Use your discretion. There are some things that you shouldn’t talk about with someone you don’t know very well, so start with topics that are harmless and light. Try to keep a balance between how much you talk and how much she talks. The best way to spend time with someone is to have friends in common with her. Hanging out in a group with mutual friends will be less nerve-wracking than talking to each other one-on-one, and you’ll...

If you don't like someone, don't tell them.
If you don't like someone, don't tell them.
If you don't like someone, don't tell them.

Make sure you need to say something. Keep it civil. Don't give the person an "in. Try a direct approach. Be honest with your feelings.

That is, sometimes, it's in your best interest to just stay silent. If telling the person won't help the situation, then you may just want to leave it alone, even if the person does irritate you.  For instance, telling a manager you don't like them probably isn't going to be all that helpful to you. Your manager holds power over your career and can make your work life miserable, so telling a manager you don't like them isn't going to be beneficial. You might also get in trouble for insubordination. In addition, you may weigh your options if the person you don't like is a family member or a friend of the family. If you're going to see the person on a regular basis, telling them you don't like them is only going to make those situations more difficult. Similarly, if the person is a mutual friend with other friends, it may make social gatherings more difficult if you tell the person you don't like them. Also, consider whether you're being fair in your dislike. Maybe you took an instant dislike to someone without getting to know them. Try getting to know the person better before making a snap judgment. No matter how you tell someone you don't want them in your life, try not to cross over into being a jerk. You can tell someone you don't enjoy their company without being mean about it, which can also help you not burn bridges.  If you're too brutal, you may have trouble making friends with other people. Word will get around. Don't be abusive or mean when you talk to the person; be as respectful and calm as possible. For instance, saying, "I can't stand to be around you." is pretty mean. Instead, try, "Our values are too different, and I don't really have time for new friends." " If you simply don't respond to a person's advances towards friendship, they'll eventually get the message. In other words, try not to engage in chatty conversation and don't agree to plans you don't want to join in on.  Also, try not to smile at the person. You don't have to frown, but smiling makes you more approachable. This approach can...

Try an Italian BMT. Give the Subway Melt a try. Get into some finger-lickin’ fun with the Meatball Marinara sub.

Choose the sort of bread you want (Italian or Italian herb and cheese are popular choices for this sandwich) and then layer slices of spicy pepperoni, Genoa salami, and Black Forest ham. Make it with cheese, or choose to skip the formaggio (cheese in Italian) and go straight for the veggies. Top it all off with some oil and vinegar. This sandwich is packed with delicious meats and gooey cheese. Try out the 9-grain wheat and lay down some slices of ham, turkey, and bacon. Next, layer some slices of your favorite cheese on top and pop the whole thing into the oven for a couple of minutes. When the the sandwich comes out all melted and toasty, throw on some veggies and your favorite sauce for the final, delicious touches. Whip up some fantastic  meatballs and pour some  marinara on top. Next, add your favorite cheese (mozzarella is always a good way to go) and stick it in the oven until the cheese melts. Delicious!

Gather the necessary information. Report the violation to the SSA.

If you believe that someone is using a fake social security card or number to work or obtain benefits, you can report that individual to the Office of the Inspector General of the Social Security Administration. Before you make such a report, however, it is necessary to gather certain information so that the SSA can make the most of your report.  You will want to compile a list of the suspect's name, address, telephone numbers, dates of birth, and the social security number they are using. The more information you can provide, the better. It will also be helpful to detail the circumstances of the fraud, including a basic description of what took place along with when and where the violation occurred. The SSA provides an online form you can use to submit a report of a person using a fake social security card or number. You can also reach the SSA by phone, mail, or fax. All of this information is available on the portion of the SSA's website dedicated to reporting fraud.  You have the option of remaining anonymous when reporting a social security violation. Your identity will only be released to relevant officials on a need-to-know basis. However, the SSA warns that remaining anonymous may hamper its ability to conduct a thorough investigation. You will not be updated on the status of your report unless the SSA has need to question you directly.

Massage your feet and toes to relieve stress and tension.
The best way to relieve stress and tension is to massage your feet and toes.
The best way to relieve stress and tension is to massage your feet and toes.
The best way to relieve stress and tension is to massage your feet and toes.

Start by massaging your entire foot. Loosen up your foot. Apply moisturizing lotion. Massage the toes first. Move on to the ball of the foot. Work on the midsection of your foot. Rub the bottom of your foot in a clockwise motion. Massage the inside edge of your foot. Finish with the heel and tops of the feet. Concentrate on the areas you feel might be causing your chest pain. Massage the balls of your feet below your little toes for lung problems. Work on the balls of your feet just below your big toes for heart problems. Concentrate on the neck reflexes at the base of your toes to relieve acid reflux, heartburn or other chest pain associated with your throat and esophagus. Apply pressure to the reflex points for you stomach, small intestine, and gall bladder to treat digestive problems.

It can be difficult to determine the precise origin of chest pain, which can stem from stress, lung problems, digestion issues, or heart problems. It is therefore best to start by massaging your entire foot, and then focusing in on areas you think might be to blame. This sort of general massage has been shown to have a positive therapeutic effect. Hold the foot and gently rotate it at the ankle. Then rub all over your foot with both hands. Do this before applying any massage oil or moisturizing lotion. Rub the lotion in your hands to warm it up, then apply it to the top of the foot, starting at the ankle and wiping down to the toes. Do the same for the bottom of the foot. Starting with the big toe, pinch it between your index finger and thumb and use your thumb or thumb knuckle to gently press and massage the bottom of the toe for approximately 30 seconds. Twist the toe left and right, then push it down towards the sole of the foot. Repeat this procedure, spending approximately 15 seconds massaging each of the smaller toes. End by using your hand to gently press all the toes and the top of the foot down towards the sole of the foot. Grip the foot you are working on by the Achilles tendon above the heel to provide stability while you massage. Start nearest the big toe. Using your thumb or thumb knuckle, apply gentle pressure by pressing and holding for two seconds, or massaging with tiny circular motions. Move across the foot in three separate lines – top, middle, and bottom of the ball of the foot. Repeat these lines three times. Grip your foot with both hands. Use your thumb knuckles if your thumbs get tired.  Start by applying gentle pressure as you pull your thumb across your foot, alternating hands – left to right for your right thumb, and right to left for your left thumb. Work in three lines, dragging each thumb 5 times per line. Next apply gentle pressure as you pull your thumbs down along the middle of your foot, working towards your heel. Again, work in three lines, dragging your left and right thumb...

Lose weight. Modify your activities. Take joint supplements.

Probably one of the most important treatments for arthritis is losing weight, though many people find this difficult. Reducing the amount of weight your knees carry, decreases the load and damage to the joint and can lower your risk of osteoarthritis. Limiting certain activities may be necessary and learning new exercise methods may be helpful to prevent or reduce arthritis damage.  Aquatic exercise is an excellent option for patients who have knee problems. Using a cane or a crutch in the hand opposite the affected knee will help decrease the demand placed on the joint. Many joint supplements contain molecules that are naturally made in the body, such as glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate, and are important for healthy cartilage in your knee joints.  Although joint supplements may control pain, it is now clear that they do not regenerate cartilage. Good studies have shown that there is no better benefit than placebo, but risks are minima (other than to your wallet), so most orthopedists advise to give it a try. Some doctors recommend you take joint supplements for a period of three months to see if they provide any help. Over-the-counter joint supplements are not typically controlled by the FDA. You may want to consult your doctor before taking these supplements.

You can use a hair dye to change the color of your hair, but it's not a permanent solution.
I have a friend who has a very light hair color, and she has been trying to bleach it for a while. She has been using a lot of different products, but nothing has worked. She is

Allow the bleach to develop. Put the gloves back on, then remove the foil wrappers. Rinse the bleach out with water and shampoo. Apply conditioner meant for chemically-treated hair, then rinse it out. Dry and style your hair, as desired. Dye your roots a darker color if you want more contrast.

How long this takes depends on the type of developer you used, your hair type, and how light you want the highlights to be. Peek under the foil wraps every 5 minutes or so to judge the process. As soon as your hair reaches your desired lightness, you are ready to move on.  Most bleaching kits include a developing time in the instructions. Use this as a guide; your hair may lighten much faster than what the package says! Expect to wait around 25 minutes for the bleach to process. Do not let the bleach sit longer than 45 minutes in your hair, or you will fry it. Cover your hair with a shower cap and blast it with a blow dryer to help speed up the process. If you removed the plastic dyeing gloves, put them back on first. Carefully remove the foil wrappers from your hair. Do not brush your hair out, otherwise you risk blending the bleach into the undyed portions. You can do this in the shower or in a sink, but make sure that the water doesn't get into your eyes. Rinse the bleach out first, then follow up immediately with shampoo. Rinse the shampoo out as well.  Use the coldest water temperature that you can withstand. Bleaching is damaging enough on its own, and hot water will only make it worse. If your bleached hair looks yellow, wash it with a purple shampoo after rinsing out the bleach in order to remove the brassiness of the color. Choose a deep-conditioning conditioner or hair mask meant for chemically-treated hair. Apply it to your wet hair, wait 5 to 10 minutes, then rinse it out with cool water. If you are using a hair mask, double-check the label. Some recommend that you leave it in longer than 10 minutes. It would be best to let your hair air-dry, but you can use a blow-dryer as well. Once your hair is dry, you will be able to see the true extent of the highlights. Section off your hair, just like before, and apply the dye to your roots. Blend the dye towards the bleached parts with a tinting brush or a toothbrush. Let the dye develop, then rinse it out with cool water and a color safe conditioner. ...

If you’re planning to invite someone to your wedding, you should be prepared to explain why you’re doing so.
If you’re planning to invite

Have the conversation face-to-face, if possible. Be frank about your reasons. Don’t apologize. Stay calm if their reaction is negative.

If you arrive at the conclusion that the only way forward is to uninvite the person, do so with tact. The most courteous method to do this would be in-person. Ask the individual to meet with you in private.  You might invite them out for lunch or coffee and have a chat. Say, “Uncle Tom, how about you and I go out for coffee on Tuesday. I need to talk to you about something.” Choosing a public venue might decrease the odds of your relative becoming irate or making a scene. If your annoying relative lives out of town, arrange a time to talk with them on the telephone. Avoid uninviting guests through email or social media. Even if it’s hard, do your best to approach the issue in a mature way, which makes it more likely that you will be able to preserve your future relationship with this person. Prepare for the discussion beforehand. Review your pros and cons list. Develop a script to help you guide the conversation and rehearse it before the meeting. When you have the conversation, aim to be polite yet firm. Avoid vague language. Explain your rationale with brief and direct language.  You might say, “I’m glad you chose to meet with me Uncle Tom. This is hard for me to do, but I know it’s the right decision. Since you and Dad are still on bad terms, I think it’s best if you don’t attend the wedding. My fiancé and I really want the event to be calm and low-key. And you two haven’t even been able to stay in a room together without arguing lately. I hope you understand.”  Chances are, if this person has gotten into trouble for their behavior or have a history of inappropriate conduct, they will probably understand your decision. Saying “I’m sorry” sends the message that you’re wrong and makes it seem like you are taking ownership of their bad behavior. If you are uninviting a relative because of their behavior, don’t feel bad. You aren’t responsible for other adults’ behavior, but you are responsible for the satisfaction of your other guests at the event. If you’re worried that the person will ruin the affair, don’t...

Get used to symbols other than numbers. Consider the variable as an unknown place holder. Combine common variables together.

In early math, you worked only with numbers. Learning algebra is about being able to solve problems with unknown terms. These unknown terms are represented in the problems with letters. You need to get used to treating these letters like numbers, although you may not know their actual value yet. Some common examples of variables include:  Letters, such as x{\displaystyle x}, y{\displaystyle y} or z{\displaystyle z}  Greek symbols, such as θ{\displaystyle \theta }, α{\displaystyle \alpha } or σ{\displaystyle \sigma }. Be aware that some symbols might look like variables but are actually known numbers. For example, the Greek symbol pi, π{\displaystyle \pi }, stands for the number 3.1415. If you think of the phrase, “Two times some number,” you can express that with a variable as 2∗x{\displaystyle 2*x}. The variable x{\displaystyle x} takes the place of the unknown “some number.” Usually, your job in an algebra problem is to find the value of the variable. For example, when you start with the equation 4+x=9{\displaystyle 4+x=9}, you need to think, “What number added to 4 will make 9?” The solution is 5, which you can write algebraically as x=5{\displaystyle x=5}. When you learn to treat the variables as numbers, you can combine or simplify them as you do with numbers. This is usually referred to as “combining like terms.”  For example, 2x+3x=10{\displaystyle 2x+3x=10} just means that 2 of some variable added to 3 of the same variable will equal 10. If you have 2 of something and 3 of the same thing, you can add them together. Then, 2x+3x{\displaystyle 2x+3x} will become 5x, so your problem is 5x=10{\displaystyle 5x=10}, and the solution is x=2{\displaystyle x=2}. You can only add or subtract the same variable. Some algebra problems may contain two or more variables. In the problem 2x+3y=10{\displaystyle 2x+3y=10}, you cannot combine the x{\displaystyle x} and y{\displaystyle y} terms together because the different variables represent different unknown numbers.

Know what tone of blue you want. Take the hue into consideration. Look at the transparency of the stone. Consider a fancy color sapphire. Be aware of how origin affects the price. Pay attention to cut. Expect more inclusions with blue sapphires. Do not be afraid of picking out a treated sapphire.

Sapphires come in blues, with the lightest being Sweden princess blue and the darkest being navy or black. The most prized color is royal blue, which is in the middle of the scale. As the most prized, however, it is also the most expensive. Camelot and commodore blues, which are one shade lighter and darker, respectively, are similar in hue but slightly more affordable. Blue sapphires can be pure blue, or they can be tinted by green or purple. By value, pure blue ranks highest with slight purple tints following shortly after. Strong purple hues and any green hue are generally considered undesirable. Transparency is often overlooked when buying sapphires, but the more transparent a stone is, the more brilliant it will look. Transparent stones can also be expensive, though. Fully transparent and semi-transparent stones allow the most light to pass through. Translucent sapphires allow light to pass through, but obscure objects, making it a good compromise between transparency quality and budget. Semi-opaque and opaque stones allow little to no light to pass through. While blue is the most common color for a sapphire, these gemstones also come in several other colors. Padparadscha sapphires, which are orange-pink, are rare and considered valuable. Pink sapphires are also popular.  Colorless, yellow, and green sapphires are significantly less prized. Where a sapphire was mined can have a huge impact on its overall cost. Sapphires mined in Kashmir, Mogok, Burma, and Ceylon are usually more prized than those mined elsewhere. Typically, that is because the quality of sapphires coming from these mines is higher than those coming from most other locations. This is not always true, though, and paying for origin is a little like paying for a brand name. You can save money by purchasing quality sapphires from "lesser" mines. Cut does not refer to the shape of the stone. Rather, it refers to the facets on a gem's surface, which allow light and color to shine through at their best.  A deep cut sapphire has better color,...

Bring all of the required paperwork with you and say that you want to file divorce papers.   Your prison's legal service should file the papers for you. They should also give you the documents that you will need along with proof that they filed the forms. If your prison does not have a legal services program that handles divorces, ask a trustworthy friend or family member to file the papers for you with the clerk of the court where you will be getting divorced. Your spouse must receive notice of the divorce proceedings in order for the court to proceed with the case. You can either serve the divorce papers on your spouse by certified mail or in person.  To serve the papers by mail, you will need to pay to have the papers sent by certified mail. If it is sent by certified mail, your spouse will have to sign for the papers. To serve the papers in person, hire a process server or have someone you trust personally hand a copy of the summons and complaint to your spouse. The person who serves the papers to your spouse must be 18 years or older. You cannot serve your spouse with the divorce papers. After your spouse has been served with the divorce papers, you will need to file an affidavit of service. This document will need to be signed by the person who delivered the divorce papers to your spouse. If you sent the papers by certified mail, then you will need to sign the affidavit. After filing the papers for divorce, your spouse can respond in several ways.  Your spouse can decide “agree to” the divorce, meaning that the divorce is “uncontested.” This makes the rest of the divorce process much easier than the other options. In an uncontested divorce, the parties do not have to appear in court over the divorce proceedings, although they may still need to appear in court to determine any property divisions or child custody or child support issues.Keep...

Mini golf is a game where players try to get a ball in a hole in the least number of shots. Mini golf is fun because you can create fun obstacles for your holes. While traditional golf is played with 18 holes, mini golf is played with nine but you can vary how many holes depending on the location. Plan your course based on time and resources. If you have very young children, you can keep the course as simple as possible and use large colourful balls or tennis balls to keep the game easy. You can even just have one hole instead of nine if your kids are toddlers. Let your family help you plan the course to unleash their creativity. Some kids may work on the course for weeks. Older kids enjoy creating complex obstacles to challenge each other. Begin by brainstorming your ideas for each hole. Draw them out on paper or a whiteboard. If you have played mini golf before it's helpful to give examples of holes that you have enjoyed before. Figure out what you can use around the house to simulate similar obstacles.  For example, use containers that your ball can pass through, books to build tunnels, or stuffed animals that the ball needs to move passed. You may use around nine red plastic cups for your holes if you do not have enough containers. You may create a putt-putt zoo if you have many stuffed animals. Use your stuffed animals as obstacles for every hole. If you want to play outdoors, use the driveway for faster play. Play throughout your house if you have adequate space and time.  The putt-putt Zoo is basically a jungle themed course. Use painter's tape to secure your holes down and set them around the room. Place the stuffed animals as both decorations and obstacles for each course. For example, if you have a particularly large stuffed bear you can get players to putt through the bear's legs to get to the hole. You may also have each player make the noise of the animal at the obstacle. This is a great course for very young children. The driveway mini-golf course is great for accuracy as the difficulty...

Keep pipes in cold areas wrapped with "pipe sponge" covers, rags, or other insulating material. If an electrical outlet is nearby, you can keep them wrapped with electrical heat tape, unplugged, then plug the tape in whenever cold weather arrives. Check your crawlspaces and external walls for holes, and repair them to minimize exposure to cold air. Use wind barriers or faucet covers to protect faucets and valves on the exterior of the house. During cold weather, turn on a 60-watt incandescent light bulb near the area of pipe that previously froze, or just below it. If used to warm crawl spaces and other unsupervised areas, make sure there are no flammable materials kept in the same space. It is much more difficult for pipes to freeze if water is running through them since the water will usually travel through the pipe before it has time to freeze. During sub-freezing weather, keep faucets slightly open to allow a trickle of water. You can adjust the ballast in your toilet tank to keep it running even when the tank is full.

Think about everything you’d like to say, then jot down the ideas that seem most important to you. Pour out your heart and say how you feel about your friends. Then, revise what you’ve written so that it’s clear and concise. You might write something like, “Lately, I’ve been dealing with a lot of conflict inside myself, but recently I realized something really important. You’re one of my closest friends, so I want to be my true self around you. I hope that you’ll accept me for who I am. I’m gay, and I’m ready to live my life out and proud.” Your sexuality or gender identity is part of you, so you have every right to be excited and proud to share it with people. Don't let worries about how people will react make you feel ashamed or like you're holding in a secret. As you plan what you want to say, keep your tone positive and celebratory. For instance, use an upbeat tone of voice while you're speaking. Additionally, focus on how you're sharing your truth rather than thinking of this as a dark secret. You are totally in control of what you say during your coming out. Don’t feel pressured to provide personal details or to explain yourself. Decide what you’re comfortable sharing, and stick to that. You don't need to provide "proof" of your sexuality or gender identity. Similarly, you don't need to explain how you realized your identity unless you want to do so. What you share is totally up to you. State what you want to say aloud so you can hear how it sounds. You might also sit in front of a mirror so you can practice telling it to someone else. Keep practicing until you feel comfortable with what you want to say.  If something feels wrong, don’t be afraid to change it. If you’re already out to a family member or best friend, ask them to help you practice. For instance, you might tell them what you plan to say and get their feedback.

Brainstorm your ideas. Take action on your ideas. Take a break from your project if you feel stuck. Notice what you like in others' works. Collaborate your ideas with others. Work with an experienced mentor.

Set aside some time just to generate ideas. Think of a goal or a problem, then begin to think of solutions. Let your mind express any and all ideas, even if you initially think they are good or bad. Write down your ideas and allow them to evolve. Give yourself a time limit so that you can come up with as many ideas as you can within that time. Afterward, go through and pick out your best ideas and work with them. It’s not enough just to have great ideas, you must act on them. People might respect that you’re a creative thinker, but what matters is what you do with your ideas. The action on your ideas is how you will be known or remembered.  Write down all of your ideas and weed out the ones that aren’t realistic. Find ways to express the ones that you can create! For example, if you have an idea for an original dinner recipe, play around with some ingredients until the dish tastes like perfection. Have you noticed that lots of creative people tend to procrastinate? Sometimes, procrastination can help you be more creative. Taking a break from your work (but keeping it in the back of your mind) can help you approach it differently and try new things. So, if you’re stuck on something, give yourself a break and come back to it later. Something new might hit you. For example, if you’re writing a play and want to make it original, take a break from it (for days, weeks, or even months) and see what you come up with. Original artistic works, fashion statements, or opinions don't arise out of nothing. They are built on a framework of ideas, writings, paintings and outfits from people who came before them. They look at the world in a different way. Notice what you like or appreciate, then brainstorm ways to build off of it. Taking something and putting your own twist on it is one way to make original art. For example, write a fairytale story, but make it about animals or make the setting in outer space. Working jointly with others can help unlock your creativity and help you create something truly unique together....

Understand the assignment. Determine what you hope to learn. Brainstorm ideas.

As with any work your teacher assigns you, you want to know what is expected of you with regard to the project before you sit down to decide on a topic. Understanding the project is key for picking a topic that will meet the teacher’s requirements and keep you from getting frustrated as you work.  If the teacher has provided an assignment sheet, read it over with a pen or highlighter in hand and mark important details pertaining to the types of topic you may choose, the length of the presentation (if any), materials, sources required, etc. Pay attention to the due date as well—you don’t want to spend days working on a project only to run out of time before you finish! Write down any questions or concerns with the project assignment and ask your teacher (or, if you’re on a tight deadline and the teacher is unavailable, ask a reliable classmate). Be as specific as possible with your questions. For example, instead of saying, “I don’t understand the presentation,” you can say, “I don’t understand how the presentation is supposed to be formatted.” The latter example is much more likely to get you a clear explanation of what you are supposed to do. If you do a project “just to get it done” or “because you have to,” you’re less likely to enjoy it and less likely do your best work. Instead, try looking at the project as an opportunity to increase your skills, knowledge, and ability. Think about areas where you skills could use improvement and whether there things you’d like to or need to learn. How about areas where you’ve shown some weakness? It’s very common to shy away from working in areas that we don’t consider our strongest, but that can often be a mistake, as it keeps us from building ourselves up in those areas and widening our range of talents. Get out a piece of paper and a pen/pencil or open a blank document on your computer and set a timer for 5 minutes (don’t worry if 5 minutes isn’t long enough—you can always go longer if you need to). Then start the timer and write down every idea that comes into your...

If you have a stomach ache, try these three natural remedies to ease the pain.
If you have a stomach ache

Ingest prunes or other high-fiber foods. Drink peppermint, chamomile, or ginger tea. Mix up a solution of baking soda and water. Drink apple-cider vinegar. Sip on aloe vera juice.

A common cause of stomach ache is constipation: your body needs to move its bowels, but something is blocking or impeding this movement.  You can ease constipation by eating or drinking fiber-rich items such as prunes, bran, or broccoli.  Prunes are particularly powerful as they contain the natural laxative sorbitol, as well as packing a mean, fiber-full punch.  If constipation persists after consuming fiber-rich foods and drinks, try a mild laxative such as a water-soluble powder or sennoside-containing tea. A cup of coffee can also stimulate your digestive tract muscles and cause a bowel movement.  Don't gulp it down all day long, though.  Coffee is a natural diuretic, so too much of it can cause dehydration and exacerbate constipation.  Prune juice is well known to help stimulate the bowels and get them moving.  Drink a small glass in the AM, and a small glass in the PM to help with constipation. Studies have shown that these three herbs can help mitigate nausea and general abdominal discomfort.  Ginger regulates digestion, while mint and chamomile can be particularly soothing to cramped muscles. You can also chew on boiled mint leaves or drink ginger water rather than drinking teas made from these herbs.  To make ginger water, toss a few chunks of ginger in hot water, steep, and strain. Most over-the-counter antacids contain baking soda as their primary ingredient, so next time skip the store and make your own antacid at home.   Simply dissolve a tablespoon into a glass of warm water and drink the solution slowly. Repeat this process every few hours until your indigestion or nausea subside. Unlike regular white vinegar, apple cider vinegar alleviates nausea by absorbing unwanted nutrients in your stomach. Mix two to three tablespoons of it into a glass of lukewarm water. If the taste doesn't put you off too much, you can sip on a glass every few hours until your nausea goes away. Purchase an organic, unpasteurized apple cider vinegar which clearly states that it contains 'the mother.'  This means that it...

Think of who you are going on the date with. Take a few moments to yourselves. Include everyone. Avoid being too intimate or personal.

Before you actually start planning any date you will want to think about who you are inviting on the date.  You will want to make sure that everyone going on the date will be compatible with one another.  Take a few moments to think about the personalities of those going on the date to make sure it will be a good one.  Think about the other couple you are bringing along and make sure they will be a good fit for you and your partner. Try to find a good mix of personalities that will prevent any one person from dominating the conversation or from shying away. Although you will be going on a double date, taking a few moments alone with your partner can be a good idea.  This small break can give you both some time to enjoy each others company alone and discuss your thoughts and feelings about the evening.  Think about some ways you can enjoy small moments as a couple during your double date.  You might try asking your date to grab the next round of drinks with you. Getting up to dance with your date can give you both a few minutes together. Going on a double date will require you all to pay careful attention to everyone's mood and level of engagement.  Whatever the reason, you will have to step in and engage someone if it feels like they aren't comfortable, are acting withdrawn, or are being excluded.  Keep everyone engaged and part of the evening to help make your double date a good one.  If someone hasn't spoken in some time you should steer your conversation in a direction that involves their thoughts. Make sure to focus your energy on the other couple and not just your own date. Part of double dating is sharing the evening with another couple.  This couple won't share the same bond that you and your date might.  Always avoid over-sharing personal details or being overly affectionate with your partner when on a double date to keep things comfortable.  Don't discuss anything too personal that might make the other couple uncomfortable. Keep your displays of affection light.

Choose your favorite format. Vary your diary entries. Experiment with pens and pencils. Try setting up an online diary.

Do you want to write in an elegant handwritten journal? Or would you rather create a daily blog? There are benefits to both. A handwritten diary can be easily carried in your purse, backpack, or even in a pocket. An online blog is more interactive, and you can include links to other sites, photos, respond to comments, etc.  Try different formats until you know what you prefer. Personalize your diary to express your personality, using stickers, drawings, photographs, widgets, or anything else that you might want to include. You might sometimes write long entries, and other times just a quote that caught your attention. Include mementos of your day, such as flowers pressed between the pages of your diary, or a special card or paper wrapper. You might want to add a photo of something you saw that day, which may be accompanied by a story...or, it might not.  Try cartooning a diary entry. Particularly if you’ve never drawn before, this can be a fun thing to try to make your diary interesting. Write a daily entry in haiku, or another kind of poem for variety. If you write your diary by hand, try writing with a variety of pens or pencils. Writing in colored ink may change the things that you think to write about, or you might try color-coding your thoughts. Writing with a calligraphy pen or a fine fountain pen might lead to new ideas.  If you write with a pencil, you can easily include sketches in your diary. Colored pencils can also lend themselves to new and interesting ideas. Try writing with gel pens, ballpoint pens, felt-tipped pens, fine-tipped or thicker tipped pens. If you've never tried creating a diary online, explore some of the free options such as Penzu, Dear Diary, My Diary or Diary.com. Popular blogging programs, like WordPress, Live Journal, and Blogger, can also be set on "private" settings and used as a diary.  Digital diaries have many possibilities for personalization, and allow you to be very creative with content. For example, you could include audio clips, or video options. Consider adding...

Use non-academic sources as a starting point. Identify locations of likely sources. Search for books and scholarly articles. Get a research librarian to assist you. Keep organized notes on each of your sources. Synthesize your information and tie up loose ends. Craft your thesis statement based on what you've found.

Books, as well as newspaper and magazine articles, can increase your familiarity with your topic. They may also introduce you to academic sources and experts whose work you can seek out.  Documentary films can also serve as good introductory sources. You won't necessarily be referencing any of these sources in your project, you're simply using them to get a better feel for your topic, the experts in the field, and the sources available. Based on your preliminary research, determine what kind of sources are most likely to have information that will help you answer your research question. In most cases, you'll use a mixture of books, scholarly articles, and online sources.  For example, if you're researching history, your likely sources will be published books and scholarly articles by historians. If you're researching the development of smart phones, on the other hand, you'll probably find most of your sources online or in tech magazines. You may need to use a university or specialty library, which likely has resources that aren't available at libraries open to the general public. Contact the library you want to use to find out how you can gain access. Published books and scholarly articles are typically preferred sources for academic research. Retrieving sources typically involves making a trip to the library. You may be able to use the catalogue on the library's website to request titles before you go.  Depending on your topic, it may be possible to do all of your research online. This is likely if you're researching something trendy or cutting edge, such as a new tech development. Many scholarly articles can be found in electronic databases. University libraries typically allow free access to these databases for students and faculty. Research librarians are specifically trained to find sources of information. They can help locate books, articles, and other sources of information that you may not have been able to find on your own.  In the library, look for the desk called the "research desk" or "reference...

TL;DR in English:


Remember the slope-intercept form for the equation of a line. Remember the standard form of a line. Use algebra to isolate the appropriate variable. Reorder the variables and constants, if necessary.

The slope-intercept form is y=mx+b{\displaystyle y=mx+b}, where y{\displaystyle y} equals the y-coordinate of a point on the line, x{\displaystyle x} equals the x-coordinate of that same point, m{\displaystyle m} equals the slope of the line, and b{\displaystyle b} equals the y-intercept. The standard form is Ax+By=C{\displaystyle Ax+By=C}, where x{\displaystyle x} and y{\displaystyle y} are the coordinates of a point on the line, A{\displaystyle A} is a positive integer, and B{\displaystyle B} and C{\displaystyle C} are integers. Use inverse operations to move variables from one side of the equation to the other side. Remember to keep the equation balanced, which means that whatever you do to one side of the equation, you must also do to the other side. For example, you might have the equation of a line 3x+2y=4{\displaystyle 3x+2y=4}. This is in standard form. If you need to find the y-intercept of the line, you need to rearrange the formula to slope-intercept form by isolating the y{\displaystyle y} variable: Subtract 3x{\displaystyle 3x} from both sides of the equation:3x+2y−3x=4−3x{\displaystyle 3x+2y-3x=4-3x}2y=4−3x{\displaystyle 2y=4-3x}. Divide both sides by 2{\displaystyle 2}:2y2=4−3x2{\displaystyle {\frac {2y}{2}}={\frac {4-3x}{2}}}y=4−3x2{\displaystyle y={\frac {4-3x}{2}}} If you are changing an equation to slope-intercept or standard form, rearrange the variables, coefficients, and constants so that they follow the correct formula. For example, to change y=4−3x2{\displaystyle y={\frac {4-3x}{2}}} to the correct slope-intercept formula, you need to switch the order of the number in the numerator, then simplify:y=−3x+42{\displaystyle y={\frac {-3x+4}{2}}}y=−32x+2{\displaystyle y={\frac {-3}{2}}x+2}Now, since the formula is in proper slope-intercept form, it is easy to identify the y-intercept as 2.

Ensure that all parties have the capacity to enter a contract. Do not attempt to write a contract for something illegal. Do not coerce someone into entering a contract. Avoid fraudulent claims or terms within the contract.

In order to enter into a contract, all parties involved must be legal adults (over the age of 18 in most states), of sound mind, and free of mental incapacity that precludes their understanding the content of the contract.   Some states allow minors to enter contracts with an adult co-signer, and some states may allow emancipated minors to sign their own contracts. Being of sound mind when entering a contract means that a person cannot be legally bound to a contract if she is intoxicated or otherwise impaired. A contract is not legal or enforceable if the goods or services in the contract are illegal. For example, you cannot contract someone into prostitution services in a state in which prostitution is illegal.  Similarly, you cannot have a contract involving the sale of an illegal substance, such as drugs. A contract becomes voidable if someone is coerced, threatened, or blackmailed into signing the contract.  All parties must enter the contract willingly and mindfully for the contract to be legal. Be sure that claims and conditions mentioned in the contract are not fraudulent.  Contracts based on fraudulent premises, whether or not the fraud was intentional, are not legally enforceable. For example, you cannot enter into a contract to sell your boat to your neighbor if you are not the rightful owner of the boat.  Claiming that the boat is yours when it isn’t constitutes fraud, and will void the contract altogether.

Power down your computer. Disconnect the monitor. Ground yourself. Remove your previous graphics card (if necessary). Remove any additional bay covers (if necessary). Insert your new card. Connect the power supply. Close up the case. Connect your monitor to your new graphics card.

Make sure that your computer is completely powered down before you work on the inside. Unplug it from the wall once it has been completely powered down. Your monitor is most likely connected to your old graphics card, so disconnect it from the back of your computer before removing the old card. Whenever you work inside of your computer, you should make sure that you're properly grounded. An electrostatic wriststrap attached to the bare metal of the case is the most convenient way to ground yourself when working in a computer. You can also ground yourself by touching a metal water tap with the water running. If you are upgrading, you'll need to remove your old graphics card before installing your new one. If you were using your motherboard's on-board graphics card, you may not have a card to remove.  Use a Phillips-head screwdriver to remove the screw that is securing the old card to the case. Unplug any cables connected to the old graphics card. Undo the latch underneath the back end of the old graphics card (PCIe). This latch helps secure the graphics card, so make sure to unlatch it before pulling the old card out. Gently pull the old card directly out of the slot. Pull the old card straight out of the slot. You may have to be firm, but don't force it out. If you can't pull the card out, make sure that the latch has been released and the Phillips screw has been removed from the card's bracket. Many newer graphics cards require two bays on the back of your computer. You may need to remove the protective panel for the next bay if you haven't used it before. These panels usually pop off, though it varies depending on your computer case. Make sure that there aren't any cables obstructing the slot and that none will get stretched underneath the back of the card. Push the card firmly down straight into the PCIe slot until you hear it latch and it is evenly inserted. Secure the card to the case using Phillips-head screws (most cards will come with a couple). Make sure to secure each bracket if the card takes up...

Make recordings of your music to play to venues. Pitch to venues where similar local artists are getting gigs. Offer to perform on a weeknight. Take high pay/low fan gigs to fund your band.

You can record the music on your computer or invest in nicer equipment to record with; the important thing is to have samples of your songs so venues can get an idea of what your sound is like. Try to have at least 2-3 tracks recorded before you start pitching. Try to have a digital copy of your songs to send through email and a hard copy (like a CD) to give to venues in person. Venues will be more likely to take a chance on your band if you're the type of act they usually book. Follow similar bands on social media and keep track of where they're performing. Add those venues to the list of venues you want to pitch. For example, if you're in a jazz band, find out what venues other local jazz bands are playing at. Those venues draw a crowd that enjoys jazz, so you'll have a better chance of booking a gig there than at a venue that frequently features alternative rock bands. Don't worry about getting a primetime Saturday-night slot if you're just starting out. Tell venues you're available for any open slots, including weeknights. Not as many bands will be competing for these spots, so you'll have an easier time getting a gig. Don't be afraid to play a paid gig at a birthday party or a wedding to earn some money. Take the money you make from those gigs and use it to pay for the expenses of playing a low pay/high fan gig where you'll get more exposure.
