2,000 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Act Like a Mermaid at School | xxx | If you have short hair or you don't feel like styling your hair then you can wear a short black wig with pigtails. | If you don't have long hair, you can wear hair extensions. Hair extensions have a more realistic look than a wig does. But you can still rock short hair! | If you have African hair, get a hair straightener (Just For Me! Super is a good choice), and hair extensions if your hair isn't medium to long, and put in a loose ponytail. CAREFULLY comb hair before doing this, and don't scratch your head. | If you have dark hair and are concerned about damage from bleaching, then consider going black and getting colored hair extensions. You can make the cutest hairstyles and hair colors with extensions. They are a bit expensive if they are high quality. Do your research with hair extensions and if you don't like how they look, you can always take them out. | 1 |
2,001 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Change Your Reputation when You Are a Teen | xxx | Be inclusive and kind to everyone. Even among people who identify as emo or as Christian or both, each person will have a different idea of what it means to belong to that group. Respect those differences, and know that there is not one right way to be emo or a Christian. | Believe that you can change and understand that you are allowed to change. While some people may be slow to accept it, It is your right as a teen and as a person. | Try to understand your teen. Teens can often feel misunderstood and make rash decisions based on these emotions. Have empathy, put yourself in your teens' shoes, and let them know you get that being a teenager is tough. | The world is full of differences. Learn to acknowledge people's uniqueness and respect them for who they are. | 1 |
2,002 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Report Welfare Fraud | xxx | Why do some insurance companies cover marriage and family therapy as a procedure code only? There are many good reasons why insurance would pay for a family member to be seen. For example, those with schizophrenia might be helped if their parents understood more about the disorder, and how to remain calm and not overly emotional, when psychotic episodes flare up. This is important psycho-education. The procedure code is for the family to be seen, but the diagnosis (the mental illness) is schizophrenia. | Be sure to provide the agency with as much information as you can about the alleged fraud. Also be sure that you are confident of the information you provide. Work injuries are not always obvious, and the circumstances in each individual case are unique. As such, behavior that you suspect is fraudulent may be behavior consistent with the person's work-related injury. Reporting fraud based on speculation or uncorroborated facts may put someone's access to life-sustaining benefits temporarily at risk. | Remember that you may not know all of the details of a family's situation, and activities or situations that may seem like evidence of welfare fraud may have other explanations. | Disabilities are not always obvious, and the circumstances of each individual case are unique. As such, behavior that you suspect is fraudulent may in fact be consistent with the person's disability. Reporting fraud based on speculation or uncorroborated facts may put someone's access to life-sustaining benefits temporarily at risk. | 2 |
2,003 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Avoid Prenatal B Strep Infection | xxx | The best way to prevent pertussis is by obtaining a vaccine. Infants and children usually get the first dose of a vaccine that also includes diphtheria and tetanus. This same vaccine is referred to as a booster shot that adults should then receive every 10 years. | Although the varicella vaccine is not suitable for pregnant women, an alternative injection containing varicella immune globulin can be administered to help protect non-immune pregnant women against infection if they are exposed to chickenpox. | Intravenous antibiotics given during labor are the only proven method for preventing the transmission of group B strep to your infant. Pill antibiotics and herbs have not been demonstrated to be effective. In the future, it is possible a vaccine for preventing B strep transmission may be available. | Although there is some evidence to show that cranberry supplements can help prevent UTI infections, they cannot treat them once you have a UTI. | 2 |
2,004 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Dress for Fencing | xxx | Always read the care instructions to be sure that the method you are using is safe for the material. | You will get more of a feel how to use it when you make it yourself. And remember, if you are a person who goes in the outdoors a lot, practice beforehand. The bow drill is a great primitive skill that can be made practically anywhere where there is wood. | Keep in mind that the fencing equipment is either right or left handed. Before purchasing, always make sure that you have selected the equipment adjusted to your preferred hand. | Take precautions when working with cutting blades. Store them properly when you are not using them. | 2 |
2,005 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Be a Traveler and Not a Tourist | xxx | Don't let yourself become overwhelmed with the amount of work. Take short breaks to calm down and break huge tasks into smaller ones if you feel you need to. Get up early, have a nice breakfast and relax. | Keep busy while you're breaking the fast. You'll want to find ways to distract yourself from thinking about how hungry you are. Get some fun movies, hang out with a friend, learn to knit. | Listen to pleasant music if you get bored. And don't make it too tough on yourself; meet your friends during a break now and then, to wind down. | Don't be afraid to be “bored” or not have “enough” to do. If you run out of ideas, go to a local cafe or bar and make new friends. | 3 |
2,006 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Create Privacy in a College Dorm | xxx | If you want to find a good place to practice, do it when there aren't any people around. That way you won't drive your friends and loved ones nuts with your attempts at whistling. | If you're leaving school, go somewhere safe where you won't run into anyone you know. It only takes one person to see you off-campus and report back to your parents or teachers, so best practice is going somewhere quiet and private. | It's a good idea to talk to your roommates before you hang curtains, set up a screen, or construct a tent so they know that you're going to do it. That way, you don't have to worry about them being offended. | When you're scoping out venues, pay attention to what the regulars' signature songs are, and try to make sure you don't pick one of those as yours. Not only is it better for the audience (who wants to hear the same song twice?) but it's also good karaoke etiquette. | 2 |
2,007 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Convert Improper Fractions Into Mixed Numbers | xxx | Use a synonym if it's too hard to remember when is the proper time to use stank instead of stunk or vice versa.You can always just forget it and replace the word instead. For example, instead of "The house hasn't stunk this badly since the day we found that rat behind the dryer," you can say, "The house hasn't smelled this bad since the day we found that rat behind the dryer." | If the idea of counter words seems complicated and difficult to you, remember that all languages, technically, use counter words. You wouldn't say in English that you have 5 dirts, for example – you would say you have 5 piles of dirt. The only difference is that in Japanese, all things have counters, not just indefinite objects. | On the other hand, mixed numbers are usually best when you're describing something in real life. For instance, if a recipe calls for 4 1/2 cups of flour, you wouldn't say, "we need 9/2 cups of flour." | One way to build up to the L word is to occasionally mention something you love about this person. For example "I love those baby browns of yours" (while batting your own eyes) or "You cook a mean steak and I just love it". (In such contexts it helps to be casual.) | 2 |
2,008 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Grow Tomatoes Indoors | xxx | Watering and fertilizing routines for indoor tomatoes will be similar to routines followed outdoors. The soil in your container will not usually dry out as fast as outdoor soil, however. | If you are growing herbs in containers, the soil's nutrients will gradually leach out as you water the pots. You can help improve the soil by adding commercial fertilizer. | If your potting soil doesn't have a time-release fertilizer in it, you can purchase some at your garden supply store and add it to your soil and compost mixture to help your cucumber plant grow quickly. | If you know in advance that you will be planting peach trees, prepare the soil by adding fertilizer, organic matter and compost as early as 2 years prior to planting. This will provide rich, well-draining soil that is full of nutrients. | 0 |
2,009 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Make a Basic Hair Bow | xxx | If you will be tying the bow onto a wreath or garland, don't cut as much of the wire off; leave a few inches hanging off. | You can also make a simple bow with your ribbon and tuck the bow behind the blooms. Wrap wire around the center of the bow and secure the wire to the blooms, wrapping the connection in florist's tape. | Only use a section or half of your hair to create a smaller bow. If you do make a smaller bow, it will be easiest to leave the ends untucked like tails from a ribbon bow. | If you are hanging your wreath outside, tie some fishing line to the bottom of the wreath, then secure the other end to the bottom of the frame. | 2 |
2,010 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Get Asylum in the US As a Persecuted Woman | xxx | You can't apply for an immigrant visa in Dubai. However, you can visit the U.S. Embassy in Abu Dhabi if you want to immigrate to the U.S. | To apply for asylum, you must be physically present within the United States. You cannot apply for asylum from your home country or even at a U.S. embassy or consulate. U.S. embassy personnel may be able to offer temporary protection or refuge, but for asylum you must physically travel to the U.S. | If you are living outside the U.S., you should renew your passport at the nearest U.S. embassy or consulate. If you're in Canada, however, you can renew by mail. | This article described changing from one nonimmigrant visa to another nonimmigrant visa. However, you might be seeking asylum because you fear violence if you return to your home country. In this situation, you should meet with an immigration attorney and discuss applying for asylum or withholding of removal. | 1 |
2,011 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Change a Squirmy Baby's Clothes | xxx | If there is another adult or child around, have them help! They can distract the baby by playing with them, or they might even be able to help wrangle a wriggling leg into a pair of pants. | If the cat comes into your ownership, you may want to consider buying toys for it. Squeaky toys, scratching post, or even a ball of yarn can keep it occupied for those times when you are too busy to play with it. | If you can do so without disturbing the mother, remove a hamster wheel or multi-level climbing structures once the babies begin to start moving. They can injure themselves on such alluring devices. | To use this cloth bunny as a "boo-boo bunny": Tuck an ice cube or two inside the washcloth. Check that it's sitting firmly. Then show your young child the cloth bunny before pressing it against bumps and scrapes. Hopefully its cuteness will distract enough to stop crying and to convince your child that the bunny has healing properties! | 0 |
2,012 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Act Like a Wolf | xxx | If you are Co-leader or Leader of a clan you can simply send a clan mail to others saying not to take you into war. | Be very cautious with approaching an animal with babies. Most animals are very protective of their offspring and will go to any length to keep them safe, even if it means death. | Wolves are creatures of honor, so do not fight without reason and obey anyone of higher status than you. | Feed any tamed wolves you bring after battle. Note that they can be fed with rotten flesh without any ill effects. | 2 |
2,013 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Reject a Guy Nicely over Text | xxx | Always think before you speak when confronting a coworker. You don't want to end up saying something you regret in the heat of the moment! Give yourself time to cool down if they say something that really upsets you. | Keep your text short and concise so it's more direct. You don't want him to misunderstand what you're saying. | Keep your tone formal, but try not to seem terse or blunt. Also, remember that an appreciative, polite closing paragraph should be friendly without getting too personal. | Make sure you hold a professional but sincere tone throughout the entire letter. Keep it to-the-point and avoid rambling or over praising. Remember, people usually know when you're not being genuine. The idea is to make the customer feel good. | 1 |
2,014 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Do Boxer Braids | xxx | If your hair is difficult to work with, consider lightly misting it with water. | It is much easier to braid hair that hasn't been washed for a few days. If your hair is too slippery to braid, mist it with a texturizing spray. | If your hair is extra dry, consider spritzing your hair with water or your favorite hair oil before wrapping your hair in the scarf. | Consider braiding your hair while it is still damp and letting it dry over night. This is the safest way to crimp your hair, as it lacks heat. The more braids you use, the more crimped your hair will be. | 0 |
2,015 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Encourage Yourself to Read | xxx | While herbs and other sleep aids can help you sleep better, it's overall better to try and work out a healthy bedtime routine before trying sleep aids. Try turning off your computer and TV and trying to relax before bed. | Read a good book before you go to sleep. It will make you relax and sleep better. Make sure that the homework is done. | Only use your bed for sleeping so you have an easier time falling asleep when you lie down. | Reading before bed can help you sleep better! | 3 |
2,016 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Get Better at Soccer | xxx | Don't pretend to be a huge fan. You are trying to fake your knowledge here, not draw attention to it. Acting like you really care about a team or the game is a good way to get people asking questions you can't answer. | Be kind and play for fun and don't cheat, steal or lie you want to be known for a good reason. | Soccer is a game of deception, try to deceive and be as unpredictable as possible. | Control both your nonverbal and verbal language. Lies typically have less detail, are more self-aggrandizing, and less effective as stories to the party being deceived. | 2 |
2,017 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Freeze Lasagna | xxx | Make sure to give your horse a little at a time. Feed your horse about half, then put the remainder in your refrigerator until you are going to use it again. Both cakes can also be frozen but remember to wrap well in plastic and foil, add to an airtight container and label and date it. | Always label and date homemade food products. | Always label and date frozen food so that you know how long it has been frozen. | Clearly label the date that you bought food on the package so that you know when you bought it and how long it's been in your refrigerator. | 2 |
2,018 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Clean Ping Pong Paddle Rubber | xxx | You can also have fun creating penalty flags as party favors for Superbowl or NCAA parties. It's as simple as taking a ping pong ball and wrapping it in a napkin with a twist tie. | More advanced billiards players make use of kick and bank shots to bounce either the cue ball or an object ball (a ball hit by the cue ball) off one of the rails to strike more balls or pocket it. Some billiard tables are marked with diamonds on the sides to serve as guides for aiming such shots. | A ping pong paddle is technically called a “bat,” and ping pong's official name is table tennis. | Not all ping pong balls are made from the same material. The cheapest plastic balls are more likely to break. Celluloid balls are more flammable than other types. | 2 |
2,019 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Cure Postnasal Drip | xxx | Opioid pain medicines and anti-nausea medicines are also likely to cause constipation. If you're taking one of these along with Temodar, talk to your doctor about your constipation. They may want to change one of your medications, or put you on a schedule of laxatives to help with your constipation. | Coughs can be caused by moderate acid reflux. If you suffer from acid reflux and also have a recurring cough, try taking an antacid medication to help alleviate your symptoms. | Acid reflux can sometimes cause symptoms similar to postnasal drip. If you're not sure whether you have acid reflux or postnasal drip, talk to your doctor. | Some people with tachycardia have a greater risk of developing blood clots, so ask your doctor about drug-thinning medications. | 2 |
2,020 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Wash Sheepskin | xxx | It's best to avoid completely submerging real sheepskin in water because it can shrink, stiffen, or deform. The sheepskin has its own natural lanolin fibers that should protect it from dirt and debris. Only hand wash it if it is absolutely necessary. | If you would rather not have to soak the pumice stones or cannot find any stones, try rubbing dry sandpaper on your jeans before spraying or soaking them in the bleach solution. The sandpaper's coarseness will help wear down and soften the denim fabric to create a worn look. | Dishwashing is typically discouraged for delicate plastics because it can cause them to melt, warp or take on a cloudy appearance. If you do decide to wash your containers this way, situate them on the top rack to keep them as far away from the hot water as possible. | Leather cleaners and conditioners help to protect and strengthen leather, preventing it from cracking and discoloring. These products also make leather easier to clean in the future. You may have heard of "oiling" leather, but avoid using oils on your leather because they actually cause it to deteriorate faster. | 0 |
2,021 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Raise Flattened Pile Carpet | xxx | You can use carpet tiles, rather than large sections of carpet, for covering concrete. | Over time, carpets develop certain wear patterns due to unique foot traffic. Re-laying carpet in a different space could give you a carpet with an uneven surface. | Ceramic tiles can be applied to nearly any surface, including both painted and unfinished drywall. However, for the best adhesion, consider installing cement backer board underneath the tiles. | Put a rug over areas of carpet that are walked over a lot. This can protect the carpet. | 3 |
2,022 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Calculate California Unemployment | xxx | If possible, find a paid internship while you complete your education that will give you a chance to gain valuable job-related experience while providing you with the income you need. | You must actively be seeking work while receiving these benefits. | If your goal is to advance your career, you should be willing to treat your search for employment like its own job. You might spend 20-30 hours a week perusing listings, sending out your resume, and corresponding with interested employers. | If your wife's dream job means that she may need more education or training, support her so she can ultimately obtain the job she wants. | 1 |
2,023 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Clean Shoe Insoles | xxx | Some say that applying a thick layer of polish and then using a blow torch to melt the polish to the boot for your first layer is effective, but it's obviously extreme. Proceed only with caution. | Once the rust has been removed, it can rust again. Prevent this from happening by coating your metallic tools with oil or grease. For other objects, consider coating them with a strong primer. If you want to paint them, be sure to coat them with at least one layer of industrial grade primer or an oil primer (if applicable) beforehand for extra protection. | While it is possible to glue down bamboo floors instead of nailing them, there is greater risk of mistakes and they are harder to correct. Be aware that the nailing method described here does not leave any visible nails, and if you do decide to glue down your floor, make sure to use a urethane adhesive. | For insoles that are worse-for-wear, try using a combination of cleaning methods. For instance, you can start by scrubbing them the soap and water, then spraying them with alcohol or treating them with baking soda (or both). | 3 |
2,024 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Clean Tape Adhesive from Wooden Furniture | xxx | You can use snips or shears to cut polycarbonate too, but there may be an odd seam between individual cuts when you close the blades together. | To make cleaner cuts with fewer mistakes, it will pay to keep your filleting knife sharpened. | After you cut out the inside with the knife, the drill can be used like a grinder to make the job easier. | Try both sides of the razor blade scraper. One will usually work more smoothly than the other. | 3 |
2,025 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Frost Glass | xxx | If you are attempting to cook Chinese rice for the first time, do not worry if it doesn't come out the way you wanted it to. Just like with learning how to cook other dishes, it will take some practice. | If possible, recruit the help of a friend who knows how to frost glass when you are attempting to do it for the first time. This will make it less frustrating for you when learning the fine details of frosting glass. | If you enjoy making basic candies, try more advanced versions. Set aside your time and expect failures; it's all part of learning to improve your abilities in the art of making candies. | The best way to learn how to identify steel is to practice on pieces you are already familiar with. | 1 |
2,026 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Play Papa's Pancakeria | xxx | In the 7th Day Market, each item takes up one slot in the Set Up section, so you may find it useful if you create multiple characters to hold more items. | You can buy themed candy in special colors online and in party supply stores. Craft stores may also carry them. | You can also sell cash shop items in GMS too. Most 30 day items sells for twenty million, while a permanent item (ex.

2,027 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Be in a Relationship Without Your Parents Knowing | xxx | Wait for your parents to invite your girlfriend to family events, especially around the holidays. Your mom will feel somewhat protective of your time together as a family and she'll have to warm up to the idea of including an "outsider" in those events. | Don't tell them until you've been going out for a few months. Once you're past the six-month timeframe, that might be the best time for the introduction of the parents. Prior to that, you would introduce the person to your friends and then to your parents. | You can also try asking her friends and family for gift ideas; just make sure they won't spoil the surprise for your girlfriend by telling her! | Tell your partner immediately if you must hide your relationship from your parents as soon as possible. It will save you some very unpleasant conversations. | 3 |
2,028 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Recycle Jeans | xxx | Thicker thread is usually used for making blanket stitch because the stitch itself is often a decorative element as well as a means by which to finish off the edge of fabric. | Try making washcloths and blankets using the waffle stitch. This stitch is perfect for items that you would like to add texture to. | Squares of denim are also great for using in quilts. | 100% cotton fabric is the best fabric to use for quilting. | 2 |
2,029 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Make a Headband | xxx | Use scraps of fabric or ribbon before searching out new supplies to save yourself time and money with your headband-making project. For example, you can reuse torn pantyhose and make nylon headbands. | When deciding what to make from tight clothes, use the amount of fabric available in the tight clothing to help guide your choice. Many items can be revamped into something else provided there is sufficient fabric available. | Once the pantyhose is old or torn, you can upcycle it in various ways. For example, you can use it to make nylon headbands. | If you don't feel like you have the time or energy to read labels and wash accordingly, try filling your wardrobe with items that are mostly made of synthetic material. For instance, nylon, spandex, and polyester fabrics won't shrink and are typically easier to care for. | 0 |
2,030 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Distill | xxx | Wash your grater, blender, or juicer thoroughly after using it to extract onion juice. Onions have a potent, long-lasting smell, and you make need to soak the tool in hot soapy water for several minutes and scrub it in order to further remove the smell so that it does not taint other foods. | Amla oil can smell quite pungent, so keep in mind that you might give off its scent for a day or two after using it (or until your next full shower). | Distilled water is the best choice whenever you use water in soapmaking. Tap water is fine if that's all you have, but there's a chance it affects the feel and lather of the soap. | Sniff water to see if your distillation has worked. Distilled water will have no odor. | 3 |
2,031 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Buy a Golden Retriever Puppy | xxx | Though it can be harder to find your specific breed and age preferences, rescue centers all over the country are filled with lovable dogs looking for a second chance in a great home. | If you're looking for an Aussie puppy, the Australian Terrier Club of America is a good place to start looking for a reputable breeder. Their website has a referral list where you can track down breeders and available puppies in your area. Every registered breeder has signed on to the club's code of ethics to ensure that they're abiding by practices that are the best for puppies and the breed. | Adopt a grown Lab from your local humane society if you are looking for a good companion. While not all rescue labs are purebred, or from registered or health certified parents, they can be wonderful pets. These dogs may have uncertain health or behavior histories, but the rescue or humane society should be able to provide some information about the dog's history. | Find a mentor that can help you navigate the world of dog shows. The best mentors are often individuals who have dedicated their lives to breeding and showing dogs, and who are passionate dog lovers. | 0 |
2,032 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Make Paper Tropical Flowers | xxx | When you're using real or faux leaves for the vase, don't worry about laying them perfectly on the vase. Real leaves are often textured and uneven, so if yours don't lay completely flat on the vase, it will give it a more natural, rustic look. | Don't worry about making your flowers perfect. Imperfect flowers will actually look more realistic. | Once you get the hang of it, you should try experimenting with different aspects. If there's a certain amount of petals you would like to fit into a flower, go for it. Also don't be afraid to mix and match different types of stems together. You're not trying to make these flowers look realistic; you're trying to make them look good! The details of how you go about it are all up to you. | Don't get discouraged if your flowers don't turn out right the first time. Cake decorating takes practice! | 1 |

For example, some VoIP service providers allow you to check your voicemail via your e-mail, while others allow you to attach voice messages to your e-mails. As well as in most cases online account management and set-up anywhere anytime. Some services will even let you automatically forward your phone to another phone number or group of phone numbers on-the-fly. | You can customize the message greeting used on your voicemail. Check with your network carrier how you can use your own voice recording as your number's voicemail greeting. Each carrier (local or international) has its own way to customize the message greeting. | On some Android phones, you may be able to disable voicemail by opening your phone's settings, tapping Call or Phone, tapping Voicemail, tapping your voicemail number, and deleting it. | By default, all calls are usually set to forward to the voicemail box for your wireless provider. Before modifying your call settings, write down the voicemail box number displayed in call settings so you can set your voicemail service back up at a later date. | 3 |
2,034 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Make a Crinkle Taggie Baby Toy | xxx | A sewing machine will get the job done faster, but it is actually easier to hand-sew the fur fabric. | This can be done by hand, but is best sewn on a machine. | A sewing machine makes assembling this toy quick and easy, but it can be sewn by hand if necessary. | You can also use a sewing machine with the same method, but it's satisfying to hand-sew your own pillow. | 2 |
2,035 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Become a Professional Fisherman | xxx | Be equipped for rejection. All actors, regardless of the aspect of the industry they want to break into, must deal with rejection and disappointment. This is vital in understanding how to get into commercials. It's a normal part of the process, and you should not be discouraged. Keep trying, and if you don't land a gig right away, don't let that deter you. Keep honing your craft and continue to do your best at every audition. | Never stop learning. The film industry is always changing and so should your skill level.

To decrease the number you suffer from, keep a headache diary and watch for changes or substances that may be triggering your headaches. | Migraine triggers are not well understood.

The flavor will be diluted somewhat, but if you feel it's too much, go ahead and add a little more grated cheese - this will take care of the dilution problem. | 0 |
2,039 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Playfully Tease Girls | xxx | Make sure you pay attention to how she responds; you can tell almost anything from a girl from body language or tone of voice. Another good way to know if you're in the teasing zone is if she is laughing at what you are saying. | Don't be afraid to let your date know how you feel about them in subtle ways. Remember—the best way to seem interesting is to seem interested. | The best way to understand your ex's thoughts and feelings are through both body language and conversation.

If you stay up or sleep in late, you'll mess up the weekday routine that you worked so hard to create. | Make sure you get into a regular sleep cycle - failing to get into a regular sleep routine can throw off your entire week. Without a regular sleep cycle, most people feel lethargic throughout the day and have less motivation to do anything. | Keep your schedule flexible. Don't fill up your study schedule to the minute. There's no reason to ruin your day by consuming it with a pre-made plan. | If you're starting a job that requires night shifts, let your boss know that you're in the process of adjusting your sleep schedule so he doesn't think you're lazy. | 2 |

2,046 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Prevent Flatulence | xxx | Marijuana, though it can be beneficial for a variety of illnesses, still carries the risk of respiratory problems when smoked. If your partner is a regular weed smoker and you are worried for their health, try suggesting a healthier alternative. You can suggest consuming it in food or “vaping,” that is, smoking through a special device that heats the marijuana at a lower temperature and filters out many of the toxins, such as carbon monoxide, that are present in typical smoke. | Fresh vegetables & fruits can cause gas in those who usually eat only processed foods. This will usually subside after a few days. Do not avoid fruits and vegetables out of fear of excess gas. They are too important to your good health to leave out of your diet. | Eat only when you're hungry. Sometimes we feel tempted to eat something sweet when we're sad, bored or frustrated, but this has negative side effects on our health and appearance. The reason for which you feel the need to eat sweets while in a certain mood is that sugar and sugar-based foods contain endorphins (a substance that induces a state of happiness and well-being) and when the endorphin level in your body is low, you often feel the need to eat something sweet. Try to get yours from physical activity – practicing a sport has the same effect on your happiness level, without negative side effects on your weight. If you find yourself craving sweets and snacks whenever you feel down, you may suffer from emotional eating (which is also an eating disorder). | Be aware that every body is different and that some simple foods may cause you gas while other gas-promoting foods may not bother you at all. | 3 |

Try storing the bottle in the freezer for at least 1 hour before you mix your drink. | Getting your water bottles to freeze instantly might take a few tries. If your water bottles don't freeze instantly, try adding more salt to your ice water mixture, or cool the water bottles in the mixture for a longer period. | If you don't have any ice packs on hand, fill empty jugs or containers with water and freeze them ahead of time. Then, you can use these homemade ice packs to keep your food cold. | Try freezing a bottle of water overnight. The water will freeze into ice and melt throughout the day, so the water will stay cold all day. | 1 |
2,048 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Choose a School Bag | xxx | You can also gift wrap the dress yourself using unique materials. For example, print pages from her favorite book and use the print-outs to wrap the dress box for a unique and personal touch that will give your gift even more meaning. You can also add embellishments, such as ribbons, notes, and personal photos, to make the dress gift box really stand out. | If the bag you pick is a little plain, you can always personalize it. Try jazzing up your bag with things like patches, pins, and key chains, since you can remove them easily and change the look of the bag. You can also use fabric paint or markers to permanently decorate your bag. | An easy finger puppet theatre can be made from a shoebox or a cereal box. If you stand the box on its end and cut out a small window at the top of the box, this will become the puppet's stage. Make sure that your arm can fit up into the box. Decorate the box with curtains and "lights". Lace, buttons and fabric are ideal things to glue onto your theatre. | This model is pretty sturdy, despite the lack of glue. It can also be taken apart relatively easily and put back together again. As a result, the stellated icosahedron makes a good box for a small, light present (such as jewelry, or a note). If you want to make it a gift box, simply insert the item to be gifted into the model before attaching the last few pieces. | 1 |

If you're looking to buy a new one, you could order one online or get a cutting from an existing plant. | Start with plants from local nurseries, greenhouses or herb gardens: they will have plants that are adapted to your area and the expertise to answer most of your questions. If you are forced to start with seeds, buy new stock (marked for the current year) from a reputable supplier or from a trusted seed collector. Follow the directions on the packet and start the seeds a year earlier to get usable plants. | Respected carnivorous plant nurseries are usually the best place to buy plants and seeds. You can find these nurseries online. | The right time to pick pods depends on the species, so check online or read seed packages to find out when to harvest for your specific varieties. | 2 |

2,055 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Diagnose Pancreatic Cancer | xxx | Most types of cysts are not preventable and are not cancerous. In many cases, your physician will take a wait and see approach before recommending any medical intervention or surgical procedure. | Spreading cancer: That surgery or a tumor biopsy will cause cancer to spread in the body to other parts of the body is extremely low. Merely following standard procedures, surgeons use special methods and take many steps to prevent cancer cells from spreading during biopsies or surgery to remove tumors. For example, if they must remove tissue from more than one area of the body, they use different (sterile) surgical tools for each area. | Even if your tumor cannot be removed completely with surgery, a partial removal can relieve many brain tumor symptoms. Talk to your doctor about using surgery in conjunction with other treatment options, such as radiation therapy. | At all stages, consider how to treat pancreatic cancer. Treatments can reportedly shrink the tumor and/or slow its spread and maintain hope for a remission (though there is no known medical nor radiation cure). | 3 |

You will want to take the test well before this date to make sure you don't miss the college application deadline. | If you are in middle or high school, ask about finals and term papers ahead of time. It's better to find about it before you start school, rather than to suddenly find out that you have midterms 2 weeks before the actual exam date -- especially if your old school never had those types of exams. | Make sure you plan your test date and select your schools well in advance of college application deadlines to avoid paying rush fees or missing deadlines. | 3 |
2,058 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Build a Fake Wall | xxx | Start with the basic skeleton of the buildings, and add details later. For example, if you're building a hotel, you might want to just create the walls (don't fill them in yet) and place blocks where you want your different levels to be. Then, you can build all the other building skeletons (with your build team assisting) and worry about the details later. One of the perks of doing the skeleton method is that you can play with your building shape and dimensions before finalizing it and adding the small stuff. | Alternatively, you can glue all your pieces together first, let them set, then sand or file off the excess glue. The entire inlay can know be placed as though it were one piece. It won't appear as flush as the "overlapping" method described, but it will save a lot of waiting time for projects with many pieces. | If space allows, you can even move your wall around the room to try out different setups and configurations, since it won't actually be connected to any part of the structure you're adding it onto. | The only time you won't need to bother with locating studs is when the shelves you want to hang are especially small or lightweight. In this case, it's possible to mount them directly to any part of the wall using drywall anchors. | 2 |

If you are forced to get out of bed to turn off the buzzing, you're already out of bed, and the hardest part is over! | Make sure if you use an alarm clock, don't keep hitting the snooze button. It will only make you late. | 2 |

Make sure to create a safe space free of loose electrical wires, heat sources, or tight spaces where your guinea pig could hide. | Give your Guinea Pig(s) alone time in their cage for at least an hour when they are first introduced to their cage, so that they have time to get used to it. | Be patient!

Try out scanning your own photos, get to know your software and how to use it. It will make it much easier and more efficient when you start a real project. | Make a test film, no more than 20-30 seconds, if you are just starting with a new software. This helps you learn the program and the challenges before diving into your vision. | Editing is easy to learn and difficult to master. Move on from these simple clips to longer projects and movies to get better. | 3 |
2,064 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Prevent Chikungunya Fever | xxx | There is an ongoing effort to create a chikungunya vaccine. To some extent, the existing vaccine is effective, but only for a limited length of time. Studies show that the vaccine is only effective for less than a year. In addition to this, some people reported that they experienced signs and symptoms associated to chikungunya even after being vaccinated. | Although the varicella vaccine is not suitable for pregnant women, an alternative injection containing varicella immune globulin can be administered to help protect non-immune pregnant women against infection if they are exposed to chickenpox. | The best way to prevent pertussis is by obtaining a vaccine. Infants and children usually get the first dose of a vaccine that also includes diphtheria and tetanus. This same vaccine is referred to as a booster shot that adults should then receive every 10 years. | The MMR vaccine has some side effects. For example, about 1 in 6 children develop a fever 7 to 12 days after immunization, and about 1 in 3,000 develop febrile seizures. Some parents think that MMR is unsafe because it has some adverse effects, but this is not the case. These side effects, most of which are benign, are acknowledged by members of the medical profession. The benefits of MMR far outweigh the risks of these recognized side effects. The vaccine has an excellent safety record. Hundreds of millions of children have safely received the vaccine worldwide. | 0 |

This way, if it starts to fray as you work with it, you don't lose too much length. | Be patient. This can be difficult at first. Make sure you keep the twisted sections of hair held firmly or pinched between your fingers throughout the braiding process. You do not want them to unravel or become too loose. | Let your hair and scalp rest for a few weeks after removing the quick weave before trying a new quick weave. This will keep your natural hair healthy and less likely to break. | Store your curly weave in a cool, dry place where it can hang freely.

2,067 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Tell the Sex of Guinea Fowl | xxx | “Guinea fowl” and “guinea hen” are often used interchangeably and refer to the same bird. | Guinea fowl vocalizations can be very loud, especially when the birds feel excited or agitated. In addition, when guinea fowls want to signal alarm, their calls will become harsh and rattling. | Although candling is most often used by chicken breeders, it can also be used to inspect the eggs of ducks, geese, guinea fowl and even parrots! | Homing pigeons are not to be confused with the extinct passenger pigeon. Passenger pigeons became extinct in 1914 after decades of mass killings of the birds by humans. Passenger pigeons travelled in massive flocks when migrating and nesting and were easy to hunt in these circumstances. | 1 |

Sweeten it a bit with granulated sugar or sugar substitute and use it as a delicious topping for ice cream, yogurt, or a biscuit. You can also use apple puree to add some necessary sweetness to savory dishes. | Make sure that the flavors go well together. Some flavors, such as chocolate cupcakes and lemon curd, don't go well together at all. | Frozen watermelon works best in smoothies, drinks, and other recipes that don't call for whole, fresh pieces. | Pair pomegranate juice with a dish that has a little sugar in it so the flavor profiles match. Just don't go overboard and choose something super sweet, like chocolate cake. | 1 |

This is especially necessary if you do not have a good way to aerate the wine other than letting the bottle stand open for an hour. | Be careful if you choose to cork a screw-cap bottle. Too much force when corking can break the bottle. | Make sure to close your bottles of shatter polish tightly when you're not using them.

Helping and providing moral support are great; pushing is not. | Realise that in many situations such as in school or at work, it's easy to get away with doing just enough.
