3,510 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Make a Firecracker | xxx | This method can also be used in homemade cardboard or plastic rockets and you can make them go a long way if ingredients are out right. The reason it blows up is because the reaction creates gas, and the pressure builds up. | The string idea for a fuse rarely, if ever, works. You don't need rocket science to know that a string will stop burning once it hits the tape. You can buy model cannon fuses from hobby stores. | One way to light TNT remotely without searching for redstone or an enchanted book or enchanting table is to use a wooden pressure plate (stone won't work), put it next to the TNT, and shoot an arrow at it. A wooden button will work as well, but it is a harder target to hit. | If you don't use your RV often, it's a good idea to test all your fuses and replace any bad ones before you take it on the road.

Having a teacher to correct you is crucial if you're planning on getting serious about dance. | Never start ballet with pointe shoes, and be very wary of a school that puts unqualified students in pointe shoes. They are for experienced dancers who have probably been dancing a few years. Your ankles also have to be strong enough. | You may have heard that ballet is painful and it can be!

If your bottle garden plants aren't growing well and you think they could use a boost, add a water-soluble fertilizer at 1/4th the recommended rate for a regular potted house plant. | Gardenias are tropical bloomers and like humidity. Consider using a humidifier in the room with your plant if growing it indoors. | If possible, use distilled water to care for your gardenias.

3,516 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Get Rid of Bleach Smell | xxx | If your carpet has pet odors, the heat involved with shampooing may actually set the odor rather than remove it.

Instead, spot clean using a specially formulated, enzyme-based pet stain remover. | If you have a carpet-cleaning machine, try it either after scraping off the excess or trying some of the methods above. Soaking the spot with a mixture of detergent and water and scrubbing it with a rag (or the cleaner nozzle) will help dissolve the overly greasy chocolate spot so it can be sucked away.

Your own happiness should be the most important thing to you. | While ED can be stressful, try not to dwell on it. Worrying about it could actually make it worse. | Don't dwell on the past, especially if it's negative. Dwelling on situations that take you out of the moment too much can be overwhelming. | 2 |
3,518 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Wean Your Baby off the Bottle | xxx | Try a variety of cup styles before going back to a bottle if your child is reluctant.

Using the Launch Box without the stem is known as "native mode" and is done by pressing your lips against the draw hole and inhaling.

3,524 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Deal with Your Exams when You Are Autistic | xxx | Be patient. Each method will take time and lots of repetition for success. Don't be deterred by failure but keep going. Ask for help if needed. | When in doubt, get the extra help. For example, if you aren't sure if you should get 1.5 or 2 times the amount of time, play it safe and take the largest amount of time. If you end up not needing it, it's fine. | If you need help in the game, there is no shame in asking, especially if it will save you time and effort. Even if you are called a noob, ignore them and focus on receiving help from those who are willing to give it. | Often, when playing games, it is more profitable to take a bum score and move on than to keep trying for a perfect or even good score. For example, if you need 1200 points in-game to get 1000 Neopoints, and you keep getting 800 but achieved 1200 a couple of times before, it's not profitable to keep trying for three per... | 1 |

People who know you will probably lend without charging interest, or if they charge interest the rate will be much lower than what you are paying to a credit card company. | Instead of taking out a cash advance through your credit card, try taking out a small personal loan through your bank.

3,585 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Make Cake in the Microwave | xxx | The total preparation, baking, and cleanup time should clock-in at about 20 minutes. That means you'll have plenty of time to enjoy the delicious dessert you've prepared. | It's a good idea to have your garnishes cut, prepped, and ready to go before you begin mixing your cocktails in order to save time. | You will need about 3.5 hours total for this recipe.

3,586 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Make Cinnamon Hot Chocolate | xxx | You can also flavor the dough. Use Green Tea Boba (Bubble Tea) powder to color and flavor half of the dough. Just add the powder after you're finished kneading and incorporate it in.

For the simple version, the real sugar will caramelize for more flavor. For the brewed version, you need some sugar to feed the yeast. | In method one, you can use brown sugar cinnamon for a sweeter version of this recipe. You will have to use less because it won't mix in as well as regular cinnamon. | In the first recipe above, you don't actually need to cook the sugar with water. So-called "dry" caramel is made just by heating sugar. This makes the cooking process much quicker, but it's also much easier to burn it or screw up the texture by stirring. | 2 |
3,587 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Get Your Cat to Know and Love You | xxx | If you want your cockatiel to say something, try to add a motion to it like bobbing your head.

Ask the interviewee to do the same. | Be OK with silence. If you ask a question and the person is struggling with answers, sit tight and wait.

As an interviewer, you need to get used to that. | If you need technical input from someone who is not a good interviewer, sit in with them when they meet with the candidate. You can listen and facilitate, often learning much in the process. | Be polite and wait until the interviewer asks you to sit before you sit down.

3,591 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Shadow a Veterinarian | xxx | Shadowing a vet will look great on your veterinary medical school application, but you will likely also need more experience working with animals. | If you're considering nursing school, becoming a CNA can be a great start. Not only does it look great on an application, you'll know the ins and outs of a hospital setting. | Animal husbandry courses (and/or experience working with large farm animals) are a useful attribute to list on a resume. Talk to a veterinarian who works in this field and volunteer to ride along and help in any way needed. | You'll be spending at least 12 years in post-secondary education and training to become a psychiatrist (and pretty much any doctor).

3,593 | xxx | xxx | xxx | xxx | Help Your Friend Who Is Being Abused | xxx | If you're in a troubled relationship, let this be an affirmation that you control your destiny and can change things if you want to badly enough. If you can't do it on your own, there are people out there who can help you to do so. You are worth getting some help. | Remember that it's not up to you to "save" your friend from the abuse. Your friend has to make their own decisions; you're just there to support them and point them to people that can help. | Take care of yourself and do not expect to “fix” or “save” your friend. You can be a source of support and friendship, but ultimately it is up to your friend to decide how to handle their problems and concerns. | Support your friend.

If you are artistic, you can begin with a basic pattern and chart your own design. | Dress up the bird houses as far as your imagination allows.

Make designs on the house itself, and use various and different colors or a blend of colors in different areas. | This shows a bent form, that could be a ring. If you want to make a ring, form the ring shape by folding the heated plastic around a cylinder of wood (such as a piece of dowel). Be sure to wear mitts as you do this! And as with nail art, you can paint it delicately and decorate it even more effusively. | 0 |

Raspberry seeds are very small and hard and can ruin the smoothness of the puree. | To ensure that they'll last, be sure to pick out the firmest, greenest specimens for freezing. Pass up beans that are shriveled or browning. | If you like, you can save seeds for next year. Clean them and set them out to dry for a couple of weeks, then store in a cool place.
