If possible, avoid watching the movies that you would surely hate. | Go watch a scary movie so that you have an excuse to hug her. Ask her if you can hug her beforehand, though; it may make her feel uncomfortable if a random boy hugs her in a dark room.Don't go to a scary movie if she doesn't want to. It doesn't matter whether you're scared or not; think about whether she's scared. She may hate horror movies. | 2 |

Jewelers can perform specialized tests to determine the authenticity of precious metals. | First impressions are important when selling a piece of diamond jewelry. Before attempting to sell your diamonds, take your piece to a professional jeweler to be cleaned and have any loose settings tightened. | Generally, you should have your jewelry appraised once every 3 to 5 years to ensure that you know its current value. | 1 |
2,902 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Pull Out a Loose Tooth | xxx | If your tooth is giving you pain and is not yet ready to come out, take some painkillers and/or numb it with ice. | If a tooth is knocked out, place it in milk and get to a dentist or emergency room as soon as possible. The first hour is critical to better your chances of repair. | If your tooth pain is caused by braces, it should subside within a few weeks at most. You may want to stick to soft foods right after you have your braces adjusted. | Try flossing in and around a toothache, as it might help remove any food particles and plaque that are triggering the pain. | 0 |
2,903 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Avoid Making Makeup Mistakes | xxx | Using natural makeup is healthier for your skin and can reduce blemishes. In fact, the mineral foundation doesn't clog your pores and is actually good for your skin, so you may want to invest in a good brand, but make sure to put a bit of the makeup on the back of your hand for 48 hours to make sure you are not allergic. | The lighting in public bathrooms can be really harsh and enhance any flaws in your skin. Don't cake on makeup because of this; apply as much as you normally would. You'll look better once you're back in softer light again. | Take your time patting in your foundation and blush. You want to be sure that it is integrated into your skin, or else the makeup will stay on the surface of your skin and look uneven. | While some makeup techniques can keep your skin healthy and make you look better, you should feel free to experiment with your makeup. If you like the way that you look and feel confident, you shouldn't worry about breaking makeup “rules.” | 3 |

It will also offer new actions and cosmetic features. | If you are using the stock version of Android and feel comfortable installing new apps, you may consider installing a custom launcher. Launchers are apps that change the way your entire desktop looks and behaves. They often include the ability to resize icons. | Apple often adds new effects to revisions of Photo Booth. While there are free effects available online, upgrading your OS can add effects without the need for third-party applications. | 3 |
2,905 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Wash Coconut Oil Out of Hair | xxx | If you color your hair at home, coconut oil can be used to help reduce the damage from the chemicals by adding moisture. Apply a couple drops in your dye bottle and mix it well before using. | Oil and oily hair products help lubricate the hair strands, sliding them off of each other. If you want to use an anti-grease hair treatment, wait until after your hair is untangled. | You can also use a clarifying shampoo, which is designed to strip oil from the hair. | It is best to work on freshly-washed, product-free hair. Any oils or creams may prevent the color from taking. | 2 |
2,906 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Repair a Laptop Key | xxx | If you have a PC bought from DELL or a company that sells pre-formatted computers like dell which all have a different type, you can try googling the type of the computer and search for motherboard specifications. | If you have many keys missing, consider buying and installing an entirely new Dell keyboard. Make sure that you buy a keyboard that matches the exact make and model of your laptop. | If money is tight, you can consider buying a used keyboard as your first keyboard. If you do, make sure there is no significant damage to the case, as it may mean that the electronics inside are damaged as well. Look for as complete a package (keyboard, stand, manual, and instructions) as you can find. | Not all keyboards are alike, so make sure that the model of key that you get works for your specific model of computer by researching it as much as possible before purchasing. | 3 |
2,907 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Grow Black Eyed Susan Flowers | xxx | Gardeners should keep in mind that hardy hibiscuses can survive the winter outdoors in zones higher than 5, but the plants may die back to the ground in some areas. Tropical hibiscuses are only able to be left outdoors in zones higher than 9 or 10. Here are some tips that will help keep plants alive during the colder months. | Annual varieties of black-eyed Susan such as Rudbeckia hirta may re-seed themselves and return the following year, so gardeners should be aware of this. After all, there is no need to purchase seed if the plants may return on their own accord. | At the end of the outside growing season tuberous begonias need a rest and will not bloom all winter inside. Even plants in warm climates need a few months rest. | Cutting back and fertilizing pansies at the right time can ensure a repeat flowering from them later in the year – just when other plants are finishing their flowering season. | 1 |
2,908 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Accept Defeat Gracefully | xxx | When playing against a new opponent, make sure to establish the ground rules of the game that you want to play by right away. For instance, this will save confusion half way through the game when someone wants to play with nubs and the the other player is unfamiliar with that rule. | It's silly to be "honorable" in fighting games. If there's a very useful tactic that's hard to counter, use it. If the game is designed well, there will be always a counter or a way to prevent the tactic from taking place anyway. If the tactic is literally UNBEATABLE, even with careful prevention, then the game might be broken and not meant to be played competitively. So in short, don't afraid of being cheap! If your opponent knows what they're doing they wouldn't be complaining about honor in the first place! | This is a dark path, be careful. You just have to not care by denying your pain it's power. If you fall and smack your kneecap get up and walk. If you are being bullied deny that it affects your life at all, still do you. But, of course, you have to deal with it. Avoid the problem in the future by adapting. Try something else next time. Learn and you won't encounter the same problem as much, or, not at all. When you don't let pain have as much power, you feel less pain. | Defeat should be strictly connected to the situation – not the people. The goal is to win a competition, not "beat" another person. If you will have many opponents, your goal should be the game. This approach may change your outlook towards the word "defeat". Think of it less as playing against an opponent, and more like playing against the game. | 3 |
2,909 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Smell Good | xxx | Keep a dryer sheet or fresh bar of soap in your dresser drawer to help keep your clothes smelling fresh. | Add a small candle or a bar of soap inside your dresser to keep your clothes smelling fresh. | Don't leave things lying around on your closet floor. Put clean clothes back in your closet and put towels and dirty clothes in the place where you keep clothing that needs to be washed. | Keep a spray bottle filled with water to spray the clothing if it dries before you finish ironing. | 0 |
2,910 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Teach a Blind or Visually Impaired Student | xxx | You can find a teacher preparation program that will meet your needs on the Texas Education Agency website. | Contact the career office at your school regarding internships and work study programs. Career information is a free benefit provided to students by most schools. | Many teachers struggle with their classroom budget to find the resources to provide these opportunities. Consider looking into classroom funding sites that can help you access the materials you need. | Talk with your school board or principal for additional teaching resources and lessons plans that can be used for visually impaired students. | 3 |
2,911 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Survive a High School You Hate | xxx | Trial and error may be necessary to find the right style or look that works for you. Embrace the transformation and learn as you grow! | Stick to your plan and apply your strategies often, so over time they truly become a part of you. Refer to your vision board or some other reminder of the reputation you want that you can use to stay focused. | Do not let others' words hurt you, just try to ignore them. Peer pressure is difficult to ignore, but if you keep your goals in mind and rely on your friends, your high school experience should be successful. | Find the strongest point of your school and embrace it. Take advantage of it. | 3 |
2,912 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Message Someone on YouTube | xxx | You must verify your YouTube account from the CHANNEL section of the Creator Studio before you can receive private messages. | Your YouTube video likes are usually public, though you can hide them in the Privacy section of your YouTube Settings. | You can also use the YouTube analytics to view your channel's views. | When you sign in using your YouTube or Google account details you can access your favorite videos and also view videos you have uploaded to YouTube. | 0 |
2,913 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Flush a British Toilet | xxx | To prevent further scratches, use a plastic toilet brush and use a toilet auger instead of a plumber's snake to clear clogs in the toilet. | Even if you manage to get your washer open, it's a good idea to have it serviced by a licensed professional to determine the source of the problem and come up with a safe, reliable fix. | If you feel uncomfortable dismantling and reassembling your toilet, the safest bet is to call a plumber. | Before using an unfamiliar toilet, it's a good idea to locate a plunger, just in case. | 3 |
2,914 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Cancel an Order on Amazon | xxx | If the customer does not give you any buying signals, use a "trial close" to see if they are interested in making the purchase. If they accept a close, then you've made the sale. Otherwise, continue to qualify them. | If you want to price your auto parts higher than your local or online competitors, but don't want to deter potential buyers, indicate "or best offer" in your post to see what buyers are willing to pay for your auto part. | If you are an Amazon Seller and cannot fulfill an order in time, cancel the order as soon as possible. This will reduce your chances of receiving negative feedback from buyers, and will also allow them to make arrangements for purchasing the item elsewhere. | In the case of consumer-to-consumer e-commerce, you will need to email the seller and negotiate a cancellation or return. This is the preferred way to handle Etsy and eBay transactions. Be courteous and ask for a full refund. After they have given the refund and cancelled your order, leave a positive review on their site to reward good customer service. | 2 |
2,915 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Buy a Mobile Home | xxx | Make sure you don't run out of food. | Make sure that you don't use kale seeds that are more than 4 years old since they probably won't be viable anymore. | Keep your car fueled up and in working condition so you don't have to worry about getting stranded. | Stick to your budget so you aren't tempted by the available upgrades. | 3 |
2,916 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Lose Weight and Stay Healthy With a Disability | xxx | Take all medications as prescribed. If you're on a medication to help control your blood sugar levels, talk to your doctor before making any alterations, especially if you have lost weight or changed your diet. Do not stop taking a medication unless your doctor advises you to do so. | Consult a doctor before you start any extreme diet or exercise regimen. | Stop any diet or fitness regimen if you do not feel well. Consult your doctor about alternative programs. | Talk with your doctor if your symptoms don't improve within two to three days of taking the medication and always inform your doctor of any supplements or natural remedies you may be taking. | 2 |
2,917 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Fold a Penultimate Module | xxx | Using bigger sheets of paper can make the project easier. Also, try using paper that has different colors or patterns on each side. | Use different kinds of paper to make different designs. | It is easier to fold the paper or material and make one from a square to get more even edges. | If you are making your own flower from scratch, experiment with using different types of fabric in the same flower. This will give you some texture. | 1 |
2,918 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Lose Weight As a Teenager | xxx | Work out about once a week, but don't overexert yourself. Working out at this age is about being fit, not losing weight. | Focus on your objective every time you need motivation. You can lose weight, but it may take longer than the 1 week you are hoping for. If it does, don't let that discourage you. Every body is different, so pay attention to what your needs are and adhere to what will help you lose weight quickly but safely. | Don't get upset if you don't gain as fast as you want to. Gaining weight safely and in a healthy manner isn't about putting on the pounds as fast as you can; it's about gradually getting to the weight that you want to be. | If you're considering losing some weight, make sure you want to do it for the right reasons. Weight loss should be about keeping your body and mind healthy, not about trying to look a certain way to impress someone or feel better about yourself. | 3 |
2,919 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Use Actor's Access | xxx | Submit for a production that you want to act in. Don't go for a role that's by Nickelodeon if you don't like Nickelodeon productions. | Nickelodeon doesn't usually allow people to audition for roles by direct request. If you're an actor, a much better idea is to enlist a talent or booking agency to get you an audition. | Don't do anything you shouldn't be doing, such as playing an online game with cursing people, starting a blog without asking your parents, or making a YouTube account when your parents don't want you to. Instead, do something crafty or play a board game. Your parents will be proud you're not on the computer. | If you are trying out for a character and a more experienced classmate is trying out for the same character, do not back down to them and give up. Maybe the director will think you're more suitable for the role than that more experienced person is. | 0 |
2,920 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Make Kahlua | xxx | If you're in a hurry, just buy your cheese curds. This way you can skip the first part of the process but still have tasty homemade burrata. | If you want a batch of homemade, aged Kahlua for Christmas, you should start in early November. | Younger children love this in the wintertime, especially with the whipped cream. As a bonus, since it's cheap and easy you may wish to make it in bulk for a group of children to enjoy. | If you want a thicker consistency, freeze the raspberries, banana, blueberries, and strawberries in advance. You can use plastic tubs for the berries and greaseproof paper for the banana. | 1 |
2,921 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Remove Eyelash Glue | xxx | Don't remove the watch band if you're unsure of the proper method for its removal. Simply wipe over the entire watch with cloth and use a toothpick for small crevices. Do not use a liquid cleaner if the watch remains assembled. | A good way to help prevent the rusting of bolts is to paint on some liquid tape. Then it can just peal off when you wish to remove it. | If you plan to reuse your false lashes, it's important to remove all of the old lash glue from the band before you put them away for storage. | If the lash strip is very long, it might be a good idea to trim the lashes down to fit your lid first. This way, you don't waste any precious glitter, rhinestones, or feathers. Always trim from the outer corner. | 2 |
2,922 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Make French Fries | xxx | If you are looking to boil potatoes to make mashed potatoes or if you want to bake or fry potatoes, you want to purchase Russet or Idaho potatoes instead of fingerling. Idaho and Russet are a high-starch potato that will work well regardless of the cooking method or application, whereas fingerlings, though versatile, have limited application. | Although starchy potatoes, like Russets, are usually used to make french fries, you can use red or yukon gold potatoes. | Beefsteak tomatoes are especially popular for slicing and putting on sandwiches. Italian or paste tomatoes are used for cooking, canning, and juicing. Cherry tomatoes are frequently used in salads. | Parboiled potatoes are great for using on pizzas, in curries, for salads or fried up as hash browns or potato patties. Some people love to parboil potatoes prior to roasting. | 1 |
2,923 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Hide Dog Crates | xxx | Buy a vintage jacket for a head start in the distressing process. | Purchase a new thermometer as soon as possible to save you from another future hassle. | Get creative with this project or keep it simple - hiding a dog crate can be a fun DIY weekend project or a quick afternoon endeavour (it really comes down to personal preference). The crib will most certainly be a weekend warrior type of job though, so ensure you have some assistance for the task (even if it's just a spare clamp or two)! | Ask a Capricorn guy for advice, since he likes responding to practical questions. Text him for advice on something small, like completing a household chore or fixing car troubles. | 2 |
2,924 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Make Lip Balm with Petroleum Jelly | xxx | Make the lip balm more nourishing with added ingredients, such as honey, shea butter, or vitamin E oil. You will have to melt the ingredients together, however. | For an extra soothing and smooth texture, you can also add shea, cocoa, or mango butter to your lip balm mixture before melting. | You can always cook the apples using any of these methods on their own, without seasonings, such as sugar, butter, or cinnamon. Keep in mind that they won't be as flavorful, however. If the recipe calls for water, however, be sure to add it in to prevent scorching. | Frosting is easy to find at any supermarket in the baking aisle, but you can also make your own. You'll need powdered sugar, butter, a little bit of liquid (milk, juice or water), a dash of flavoring and food coloring. | 0 |
2,925 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Clean a Leather Purse | xxx | If you are concerned about a cleaning method, consider doing a spot test in an inconspicuous area, such as the inside or the bottom of the bag. | Test any cleaners you use in an inconspicuous spot of wood first to make sure it doesn't affect the color or finish. If it does, try using a different cleaning method instead. | Consider testing your stain removing technique in an inconspicuous area first (such as the inside hem). | It's a good idea to test any cleaning solution that you intend to use on an inconspicuous spot on the carpet, such as in a corner or under a piece of furniture. Wait a few minutes, and look to see if there are any reactions, such as bleaching or staining, before using it on the affected area. | 0 |
2,926 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Remove a "Foxtail" from a Dog's Nose | xxx | If your dog suddenly stops eating its food, talk to your vet since there could be an underlying health issue causing your dog to lose its appetite. | If you think a seed might already embedded in the skin, in a paw, in an eye or an ear, or if a dog who has been eating grass seems to have a throat problem, take the dog to a veterinarian as soon as possible. | If your pet suddenly stops eating its normal food, take them to the vet to get them checked out since a lack of appetite could be a sign of something wrong. | Tell your vet what your cat was doing immediately before the nosebleed. Significant acts include playing rough with other animals, sustaining head trauma, sneezing, rubbing of the nose, or vomiting a substance that looks like coffee grounds. If your cat's mouth or gums have been bleeding or if their stool is black, that's also something to note. | 1 |
2,927 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Prepare for Coronavirus | xxx | Do not listen to anyone who says children don't need to be tested for coronavirus. If your child has been exposed to COVID-19 or is showing any symptoms, they should get tested. | Although infection from this bacteria is rare, there has been an increased number of reported cases. If you live or work in an area where others have gotten infected, make sure to take precaution. | Make sure to let your doctor know if you suspect you or your child may have chickenpox if you are coming into the office. You don't want to expose others, as the virus is very contagious. As well, infected people should wear medical masks and gloves to prevent transmission of the virus. | Remember to treat everyone with kindness. Don't assume that someone has coronavirus because they are Asian. Keep in mind that the virus has spread to more than 200 countries, so it affects a diverse population. Additionally, don't assume everyone who's coughing has coronavirus. | 3 |
2,928 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Visit the World Trade Center | xxx | The museum is generally crowded no matter what time of day you plan to visit. However, early mornings and later in the evenings can sometimes be quieter at the museum and memorial. | The crater is open every day, including holidays, from 6 am to 6 pm. The last entrance is at 4:30 pm and there is a notice at the main gate that if you can't come down by 4:30, it's best to come another day. On average, the hike takes about 1 1/2 hours round trip. | The amount of food and drinks that you load depends on the prospects of the day. If it is the weekend and the weather is nice, you would want to load much more than on a rainy, cold Wednesday. Predicting the sales of the day takes some experience, but if you need more goods, you can always restock, so don't worry. Keep in mind that it is better to overstock than run out of something and disappoint a customer. | Check all your vehicle's lights periodically, especially if upcoming winter months mean that you will be doing more driving after dark. To make the process easier, you can take turns with a friend operating the lights and watching to see that they all come on, or you can watch your own reflection in the windows of a glass-fronted building. | 0 |
2,929 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Work Blinds | xxx | Check that the duvet cover has loops before you buy it! If it doesn't have loops, you won't be able to tie the weighted blanket to it. | If the bag of grapes doesn't have any vines, don't buy it. | If your lift strings aren't connected to the lift cords, this process can get kind of messy and confusing. If you have cheaper blinds, consider simply replacing them instead of restringing them. | If your blinds don't have strings, you might have to roll them up. | 3 |
2,930 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Find Area and Perimeter | xxx | You can add up the lengths of the sides to get the perimeter of any polygon – a triangle, rectangle, pentagon, or other straight-sided shape. Circles and other curved shapes require different formulas. | These area and perimeter formulas only work for the area of a shape. If you need to find the area of a three dimensional shape, which is called volume, you will need to look for formulas for volume, which should include: cones, cubes, cylinders, prisms or pyramids. | To find the perimeter of a rhombus when you are missing side lengths, in general you want to use the diagonal(s) of the rhombus to divide the shape into several right triangles. Then you can use the Pythagorean theorem or trigonometry to find the missing side lengths. | Irregular pentagons, or pentagons with unequal sides, are more difficult to study. The best approach is usually to divide the pentagon into triangles, and add up the area of each triangle. You may also need to draw a larger shape around the pentagon, calculate its area, and subtract the area of the extra space. | 1 |
2,931 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Reduce Doorbell Sound | xxx | To prevent nosey people snooping through your personal possessions, you can lock them away, or even better, have padlocks on. Padlocks with combinations are the best, and be sure to keep the combination to yourself. Type your private documents onto a computer with a password that only you know. | Add a security camera. Even 1 or 2 economical cameras can deter would-be thieves. You can set them up to record going to your computer or phone. Uniden makes good systems that won't break the bank. | Hardwired cameras are typically the kind used in businesses to prevent crime. These can connect with a recording device or with television monitors. | Most wireless doorbells function as security systems as well since they have cameras that let you monitor what's going on outside of your door. If you're worried about crime or getting your packages stolen, a wireless doorbell is a great solution. | 3 |
2,932 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Talk to a Girl over the Phone | xxx | Do not text or call your friend every hour of the day. They will become annoyed and may not respond when you are calling about something that is actually important. | Do not over-text. It can break the relationship. Be relaxed and chat with her when she is not busy. Over texting will make her feel that you are only interested in chatting and you don't want to meet her personally. | Never forget to call her if you have promised to call later. She may think you are not serious. | Don't ignore someone's phone calls. If you change your mind about wanting to date this person, answer the phone and tell them that you are no longer interested. | 2 |
2,933 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Make Dried Tomatoes | xxx | If raw onions are too pungent for you, place them into a strainer, and rinse then under hot water for a few seconds. Use them in your recipe as soon as possible. | You can freeze tomatoes for up to 3 months in an airtight food storage bag. They will become mushy when you defrost them, but they can still be used to make sauces. | Add some olive oil and salt to the pasta as it boils to prevent the pieces from sticking together. Set them aside in an even layer on a plate so that they are easy to handle later. | When the tomatoes are dry, you can eat them that way, or put them into a jar with olive oil to preserve them and include them maybe in a salad. | 3 |
2,934 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Find the EIN of a Company | xxx | The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) is reviewing the possibility of eliminating the use of SSNs for tax purposes. However, no changes have been made towards a new tax identifier. | Outside the US & Canada, the similar 13-digit EAN bar code system is more prevalent. The EAN contains an additional digit used as part of a country code, but 12 digit UPC barcodes can have a "0" added in front to write them in the EAN system. | The EIN is also often referred to as a Tax Identification Number (TIN), 95 number, or tax ID number. These terms can be used interchangeably. | Some banks refer to routing numbers as "ABA numbers" or "routing transit numbers," but all of the terms mean the same thing. | 2 |
2,935 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Shave Your Face | xxx | Wearing braids or cornrows can pull on your scalp, leading to more irritation. Ask your stylist to loosen your hair to avoid any pain. | Always use a sharp razor to help prevent bumps and irritation. | Always work slowly and carefully when cutting your hair with thinning shears to avoid getting carried away. | Use sharp or new razors to help keep your hair from getting snagged and to reduce skin irritation. | 3 |
2,936 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Grow Pistachios | xxx | Ryegrass doesn't attract many pests and can help reduce insect levels in vegetable crops. It can occasionally attract pests like pin nematodes (Paratylenchus projectus) and bromegrass mosaic virus. | Chard is a relatively problem-free plant, but caterpillars, slugs aphids, and mites may chew through the leaves. | Watch out for pests and disease. Spider mites and mealybugs are among the insects that occasionally attack this plant, but otherwise, few pests touch it. Diseases pose a more serious problem, however, with root rot being the greatest threat. | Note that pistachio trees are vulnerable to scale and stink bug infestations. | 3 |
2,937 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Make Hot and Sour Soup | xxx | You can add various spices and seasonings to the bok choy, not just salt and black pepper. | You can add other vegetables to the soup, such as bok choy and/or green onions. | Slice the bok choy into smaller sections for stir fries to speed up the cooking time and avoid overcooking. | You can also mix hae bee hiam into stir fry dishes for added flavor. | 1 |
2,938 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Divide Bearded Irises | xxx | When you want your petunia to bloom more you need to cut the stems (with the flowers on it) off. | Some people cut the green leaves when dividing bearded irises, but it is not required. Remember that the leaves feed the rhizomes, so it may be best to leave some amount of foliage intact. | If you are growing white foxgloves, keep them apart from coloured ones, as they will cross and the white flowers will disappear. | To increase your number of lilies, divide established bulbs by unearthing them and then splitting them into quarters. Only do this when the lilies are not flowering. Replant the quarters and you will see new growths. | 1 |
2,939 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Hold a Fork | xxx | Don't grip utensils with your whole fist. Instead, hold them with your index finger and thumb, and then rest your middle finger underneath. For a knife, use your index finger to apply downward pressure from above. | Hold the knife properly. Grip the heel of the blade with your thumb and index finger. | If you cannot seem to get the packing down take the can out of your hand and pinch your middle finger and thumb together and try your best to just snap your pointer finger onto your thumb and middle finger... after you get a couple good ones in go back and try to repeat the same thing with your can in your hand. | Hold your fork between your index finger and your thumb with the middle part of the fork resting on your third finger. | 3 |
2,940 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Treat Cystic Fibrosis | xxx | Ask your doctor about vaccinations against serious bacterial infections that can cause sepsis in both children and adults. | If you have an acne outbreak that doesn't respond to antibiotics or gets worse, you probably have a fungal acne outbreak. Visit your dermatologist for an examination. | If you have cystic fibrosis, it is essential to get all of your routine childhood immunizations. | Talk to your doctor about your treatment options and your allergies. If you have eczema, then the most common treatment is a special lotion or ointment that you will have to apply daily. However, you may need to be treated for other problems caused by your eczema, such as an infection or broken skin. | 2 |
2,941 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Stop a Divorce | xxx | If you decide to pursue marriage counseling, try to go in with an open mind and a positive attitude. In general, this will help you succeed at improving your relationship. | Be sure to take care of yourself and make sure your physical and emotional needs are met alongside your partner's. The key to a successful relationship is mutual happiness. | Working through marital issues takes patience, clear communication, and an open mind.

Business consultants sometimes return to company employment in high-profile jobs. | Whenever you work for a team or intern in the sports industry, try hard to set yourself apart.

2,946 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Make Alkaline Water | xxx | This water is not suitable for human consumption straight from the spigot; however, it is the same water that was washing onto the lawn prior to the addition of the collection system. If you wish to make the water potable, boil the water vigorously for 1 to 3 minutes (depending on your altitude) to kill bacteria, parasites, and viruses. After cooling to room temperature, pour the boiled water into a filtered water pitcher (typical brand names are Brita, Culligan, and Pur) with a fresh filter. Depending on the pitcher, this will reduce most heavy metals, chemicals, and other contaminants to safe levels for temporary use. You may also choose to use a steam distiller to purify the water for drinking and cooking purposes. Steam distillation removes more impurities than filters. | The Pit-style Solar Still technique can also be used to purify dirty water and urine. | If you need to restore old, rusty tracks, submerge them in Coca-Cola. Let them soak for 10 hours and then rinse them off and hand dry them. Use a hair dryer to evaporate any hard-to-reach moisture. It sounds crazy, but it works! | For any of the methods of alkalizing water, more water will be used than what will be drinkable at the end of the process. For the reverse osmosis method, if you want 1 gallon (3.785 liters) of pure water, you may need as much as 3 gallons (11.356 liters) of tap water to start. | 3 |

Everyone has been brave at some time (learning to ride a bike, for example). You can be brave again. | Don't try stuff that you have a hard time on at the gym too early. Work towards a set goal, reward yourself and set a new one. In this way, your progress becomes more tangible. When you've reached a goal, any goal, tell your friends and family - they will be proud of you, no matter what. | Try your best. Always go into things with good intentions and positive thoughts. Most likely, you'll be admired for your determination and will tend to do better. When you lose a soccer game or have a bad day at school or work, try to go through it with a quiet smile and do better next time. Don't blame it all on yourself, nor should you blame it on anyone else. It will make you look the opposite of inspiring. This is common sense, but it's surprising how many people forget how awesome they really are! | If you encounter challenges, try to learn from them and don't get discouraged. For example, if you fail a test or even a class, look at it as a learning experience. Consider what went wrong and what you can do the next time to ensure that you succeed. | 0 |

2,957 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Transfer Files Between Two Macs | xxx | Not only is remote control a great option for busy professionals with multiple machines, but it is also handy for users who may need routine access to a particular file across systems. Instead of constantly sending it back and forth, remote control allows it to be accessed and saved from one single location. | While setting up a Thunderbolt 3 connection is initially a pain, it provides the fastest way to transfer files from one computer to another; you can even transfer files that are several gigabytes in size within a few seconds. | Demos are often several gigabytes in size. Make sure your hard drive and your Internet plan are suited to handle larger demo sizes before attempting to download them. | A good way to make setup faster is when you back up data, don't copy it, but move it, then defragment the disk. Try to do this the night before you install the new operating system, as the installation will be able to format the disk much faster. This is especially true if you have an IDE disk that is over 40 gigabytes, or Serial ATA (SATA) disk that is over 500 gigabytes. | 1 |
2,958 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Clean Tea Stains from Cups | xxx | To keep your sink looking fabulous, do a quick, light cleaning each time you use it. Clean up food residue before it dries and don't let liquids sit for long. If you need to, use a bit of dish soap (washing-up liquid) to clean anything sticky or greasy off the surface. Then, wipe it down with a towel each time you use it. This will keep water spots from forming. | Always rinse your mug out as soon as you finish your tea to prevent stains from forming. Scrub the inside of the mug lightly if you notice any brown stains forming. | Each time you use your Bunn coffee maker, you should rinse and wash the pot and filter. This will help remove any bacteria that may build up in the coffee pot and will ensure that your coffee tastes fresh. | Clean up spills immediately to prevent etching or stains on your travertine stone.

2,959 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Make a Terrarium | xxx | Some large plant stores have sections devoted to small terrarium plants. | Check nurseries and garden supply stores for supplemental light solutions. Many of these stores sell light set-ups that will work well with indoor orchids. | If you're not sure how much to water or how often, purchase a hydrometer. These are fairly inexpensive and can be found in most plant care sections of bigger stores. Basically, it's a metal probe that you stick in the soil of your plant, then the gauge shows whether plant is dry, wet etc. | Unless your greenhouse has a dirt ground, you will need to grow your plants in containers or raised beds. Consider building your greenhouse with a dirt ground if you're growing trees or larger plants that are more prone to become root-bound in containers. | 0 |
2,960 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Factor Binomials | xxx | Make your number lines different scales to represent different numbers. There is no rule that number lines must always be divided by a space that equals 1. Imagine a number line where we make marks every 10 instead of every one. Aside from the fact that each space now represents 10, the basic movements of addition and subtraction are still the same. Try it out if you don't think so. | If you don't want to multiply by hand during the long division, try breaking up the problem into digits and solving each part in your head. For example, 14 x 16 = (14 x 10) + (14 x 6). Write down 14 x 10 = 140 so you don't forget. Then think: 14 x 6 = (10 x 6) + (4 x 6). Well, 10 x 6 = 60 and 4 x 6 = 24. Add 140 + 60 + 24 = 224 and you have the answer. | One way to find perfect squares that factor into a number is to look through the list of perfect squares, beginning with the one that is the next smallest compared to your radicand, or the number under the square root sign. For example, when looking for the perfect square that goes into 27, you might start at 25 and go down the list to 16 and stop at 9, when you found the one that divides into 27. | If you're unsure if there is a common factor, divide by smaller parts. For example, if you don't recognize that 16 is the common factor between 32 and 16, start by dividing both numbers by 2. You're left with 16 and 8, which can also be divided by 8. Now you have 2 and 1, the smallest factors. Clearly there is something bigger than both 8 and 2 that is a common factor. | 3 |
2,961 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Do Something New | xxx | Try practicing to escape by asking a friend or sibling to tie you up. Use the techniques described to escape, but if you can't do it the first time, that's fine—it takes practice. Make sure you use a rope that is OK to cut, if you can't slip the rope off. | If you can't choose, try making a spinner and spin it to an activity. | There are lots of more involved types of knots you can do with your king cobra bracelet. Some knots are more difficult than others, but each will result in a different visual pattern. If you're getting advanced with your knot-tying and bracelet-making, it's a good idea to look up some of the creative ideas other people have had with this craft. | You can practice cutting a pattern using muslin if you don't want to make mistakes on your actual fabric. | 1 |
2,962 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Quit Soda Pop | xxx | Fresh-squeezed lemon juice usually tastes better, but you can use store-bought lemon juice instead. Make sure it's 100% lemon juice, and not a lemonade mixture. | If using bottled coconut water, ensure it has no added sugar and is not diluted with other fruit juices. | Try to avoid mixed drinks that contain juice, regular soda or simple syrup as these are the highest in sugar and calories. | Though fruit juice is healthier than soda, one should still try to avoid drinking too much of it, as it can contain more sugar than regular soda. Choose low-sugar fruit juice and dilute it with water. | 3 |
2,963 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Hold a Hamster | xxx | Clean your hamster's cage once a week. Doing so will ensure that mold doesn't begin to grow due to the stored (and forgotten) food your hamster will leave around the cage. | If your hamster gets lost, place the cage somewhere the hamster can find it. They usually don't know that they are escaping, and they just want to explore. | Make sure your hamster has regular access to water and food. If you've got more than one hamster in the same cage, it's best to set up more than one water dispenser and provide each hamster with its own set of food to minimize the chance of the hamsters fighting each other. If they're fighting each other, they are going to be harder for you to tame. | Secure your hamster's cage and check all areas where it could potentially escape. This will help prevent your hamster from getting loose. | 3 |
2,964 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Make Char Siu (Cha Shao) | xxx | Don't poke the roast when you turn it over. It will release the juices and if done many times, it can dry out the roast. | During the process of grilling, never add moisture into any of your marinating ingredients. Especially not the honey that is used to glaze the pork belly, or it'll turn out like a "log of dry wood". Instead control the heat and please don't just leave the pork to burn on its own. Check up on it frequently. | Don't use any cooking sprays on a seasoned pan. This will only leave behind extra oil to gunk up the pan, and make your food more likely to stick. | Don't let your skillet get too hot; that will tend to burn the paratha and not cook completely. Keep it on medium heat and slowly let it cook. | 1 |
2,965 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Have a Glow Up | xxx | Don't worry if you have a hard time changing your attitude. This is a long-term process, and won't be different immediately. Be patient with yourself as you change. | Sometimes you should act your own age. Your teens aren't going to come back. So make the most of it and don't act too old. It's alright to be poised and elegant but don't skip your teen life to become an adult early. | Don't do this overnight, or people might think you're trying too hard. Try doing it more slowly. You can change your hair one day... then next week start wearing the makeup... then next week wearing new shoes... then next week changing the way you dress... until you're complete and can show the new attitude as well. | It's not going to happen overnight. If you keep doing this, it'll show in your attitude and your appearance. | 3 |
2,966 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Choose Hair Extension Length | xxx | The most important thing you can do when growing out a pixie cut is to have patience. Hair growth takes time!

Keeping your hair loose is a great way to show off your beautiful style. | Once you've chosen your extensions, try to take care of them as if they are your own hair.

2,968 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Speak at a School Board Meeting | xxx | Do not worry if someone on the board who disagrees with you treats you with derision. If you do not rise to the bait, he or she will look small, as if picking on an innocent member of the community for speaking up. You should not try to debate until you know how and are comfortable with the give and take of the genre. | 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. | Dress well for these situations. If you don't look professional and put together, your listener might not even be willing to stop and talk to you, no matter how good your pitch is. | Don't hush yourself. Expressing enthusiasm, joy and a sense of awe are things to be proud of. If people tell you to shut up, don't be dissuaded; instead, work on your presentation skills until you know just how to adjust your pitch of enthusiasm to every type of audience possible. | 0 |

2,972 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Sew Patches on a Leather Vest | xxx | You shouldn't use glue, tape, staples, paper clips, or any other fasteners. Don't bend the cards to make them hang onto each other, make notches in the cards to fit them together. All of the above are ways to 'cheat', and you're otherwise not actually accomplishing anything. | If you know how to hand sew, consider stitching your merkin onto a clear or skin-toned g-string instead. This way, all you have to do is pull the g-string on and off. You won't have to mess with any adhesives. | Don't cheat by stretching your piece until it matches the gauge. You won't get a very accurate count of stitches this way. | Plan your stitches carefully. You won't be able to redo your patch, because the holes caused by the stitching are permanent. | 3 |
2,973 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Make Mint Buttercream | xxx | When sizing layers, make sure there is plenty of room for the cupcakes to stand upright without any of their frosting or decorations getting bumped. Squished frosting isn't very appetizing. | The longer you whip your frosting on high speed, the fluffier your frosting will be. Adjust your whipping time based on your personal preference. | If you want the whipped cream to stay stiff longer, like for decorating a cake, add a pinch of cornstarch while whipping. | If you get cake crumbs make their way onto your spatula as you frost, you may not be using enough frosting. Scrape the offset spatula on a bowl to remove the crumb-filled frosting. Then load the spatula again with a large amount of smooth frosting. | 1 |
