If you ever get an SMS (or a&lt;br /&gt;voice call) from Google with the&lt;br /&gt;verification code but without&lt;br /&gt;requesting one, it is an immediate&lt;br /&gt;hint that someone knows my&lt;br /&gt;password though they won’t be able&lt;br /&gt;to get in without entering the&lt;br /&gt;verification code.&lt;br /&gt;# Connect your mobile number with&lt;br /&gt;your Facebook account. This is&lt;br /&gt;extremely important because you&lt;br /&gt;can get an instant SMS and an email&lt;br /&gt;alert whenever your Facebook&lt;br /&gt;account is accessed from a different&lt;br /&gt;computer or another mobile phone.&lt;br /&gt;Carefully review third-party sites&lt;br /&gt;that have access to your online&lt;br /&gt;accounts and revoke access to all the&lt;br /&gt;unwanted apps that you no longer&lt;br /&gt;use. In case you wish to do the same&lt;br /&gt;for your accounts, here are the direct&lt;br /&gt;links for Facebook,Google and&lt;br /&gt;Twitter.&lt;br /&gt;# Maintain two email addresses –&lt;br /&gt;one is public that is displayed on the&lt;br /&gt;blog while the other email address is&lt;br /&gt;known to a select few. Why ?&lt;br /&gt;The public email address is&lt;br /&gt;associated with services like Twitter,&lt;br /&gt;YouTube, Facebook, Foursquare,&lt;br /&gt;LinkedIn, Flickr, Tumblr, Posterous,&lt;br /&gt;Skype and a couple of other social&lt;br /&gt;sites where you want people to find&lt;br /&gt;yourself if they have your email&lt;br /&gt;address in their address book.&lt;br /&gt;Use the other “secret” email address&lt;br /&gt;with services like Dropbox, Amazon,&lt;br /&gt;Google Apps, bank, hosting service,&lt;br /&gt;Apple iTunes, PayPal and few other&lt;br /&gt;places where account security is&lt;br /&gt;even more critical.&lt;br /&gt;# The last point – how do you&lt;br /&gt;remember and manage so many&lt;br /&gt;different passwords ?&lt;br /&gt;Some people prefer to use password&lt;br /&gt;managers which are very&lt;br /&gt;convenient but better use is a simple&lt;br /&gt;1-page document to store&lt;br /&gt;information of all your online&lt;br /&gt;accounts and the corresponding&lt;br /&gt;passwords.

As&lt;br /&gt;humans get older, skin begins&lt;br /&gt;to lose its firmness because the&lt;br /&gt;skin cells, collagen and elastin&lt;br /&gt;begin to breakdown, resulting&lt;br /&gt;in wrinkles and other skin&lt;br /&gt;deteriorations. Taking a&lt;br /&gt;vitamin A or E supplement&lt;br /&gt;(such as one that contains&lt;br /&gt;collagen and elastin) can help&lt;br /&gt;protect against this&lt;br /&gt;deterioration. Vitamins A or E&lt;br /&gt;along with a few other natural&lt;br /&gt;minerals have been proven to&lt;br /&gt;strengthen the cells of the skin,&lt;br /&gt;thus improving the overall&lt;br /&gt;appearance of your skin.&lt;br /&gt;However, you should never&lt;br /&gt;consume dietary supplements&lt;br /&gt;before consulting your doctor,&lt;br /&gt;especially if you are taking&lt;br /&gt;other medications.&lt;br /&gt;3. Avoid the use of oil-based&lt;br /&gt;substances on the skin. Oil-&lt;br /&gt;based substances clog pores&lt;br /&gt;and cause acne. Acne can&lt;br /&gt;cause ugly scars, thus taking&lt;br /&gt;away from overall skin&lt;br /&gt;appearance. When using&lt;br /&gt;beauty creams, shop for ones&lt;br /&gt;that have no oil and also&lt;br /&gt;consider looking at ones that&lt;br /&gt;have low or no fragrance to&lt;br /&gt;them. If you need further&lt;br /&gt;assistance on choosing skin&lt;br /&gt;care products, ask your&lt;br /&gt;dermatologist for help.&lt;br /&gt;Tips &amp; Warnings&lt;br /&gt;Your skin tells a lot about you.&lt;br /&gt;You should take care of it in any&lt;br /&gt;way you can. If you need&lt;br /&gt;additional tips on taking care of&lt;br /&gt;your skin, ask your doctor about&lt;br /&gt;prescriptions that may be&lt;br /&gt;available.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/523391152237892355-2865933639978574862?l=ehows.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ehows.blogspot.com/feeds/2865933639978574862/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://ehows.blogspot.com/2011/08/how-to-maintain-healthy-skin.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/523391152237892355/posts/default/2865933639978574862'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/523391152237892355/posts/default/2865933639978574862'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ehows.blogspot.com/2011/08/how-to-maintain-healthy-skin.html' title='How to Maintain Healthy Skin'/><author><name>Rohit</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08466820160218467039</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='29' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_HgZ6KshbDBA/TBsySIX2_aI/AAAAAAAAABU/YxipRieG2cQ/S220/BlueEyeTears.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-523391152237892355.post-7651268729421440229</id><published>2011-08-31T01:14:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-08-31T01:14:08.516-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='How to Clean Out an Oil Bottle'/><title type='text'>How to Clean Out an Oil Bottle</title><content type='html'>By Susan Brockett, an eHow&lt;br /&gt;Contributing Writer&lt;br /&gt;It's easy to clean oil out of a bottle.&lt;br /&gt;Many cooks like to have a bottle of&lt;br /&gt;olive oil near the stove. Some even&lt;br /&gt;choose to refill and reuse their&lt;br /&gt;bottle. However, oil and water do&lt;br /&gt;not mix, so washing the residual oil&lt;br /&gt;out of the bottle requires a bit of&lt;br /&gt;attention. Since many oil bottles&lt;br /&gt;have a thin neck that prohibits using&lt;br /&gt;a bottle brush or other cleaning&lt;br /&gt;utensils, use a grease-cutting&lt;br /&gt;product to remove all the oily&lt;br /&gt;remains before filling your bottle&lt;br /&gt;with new oil.&lt;br /&gt;Difficulty:&lt;br /&gt;Easy&lt;br /&gt;Things You'll Need:&lt;br /&gt;Dishwashing detergent or liquid&lt;br /&gt;castile soap&lt;br /&gt;Vinegar&lt;br /&gt;Instructions&lt;br /&gt;1. Fill the bottle half full with&lt;br /&gt;warm tap water.&lt;br /&gt;2. Add two drops of dishwashing&lt;br /&gt;detergent and 1 tbsp. vinegar.&lt;br /&gt;3. Put your hand over the top of&lt;br /&gt;the bottle, or seal it with the&lt;br /&gt;lid.&lt;br /&gt;4. Shake the bottle vigorously.&lt;br /&gt;5. Empty the bottle and inspect it.&lt;br /&gt;If there is still an oily residue in&lt;br /&gt;the bottle, repeat the steps.&lt;br /&gt;6. Rinse the bottle by holding it&lt;br /&gt;under a running tap. After the&lt;br /&gt;bottle is full, sudsy water will&lt;br /&gt;come out the top. Keep&lt;br /&gt;running the water into the&lt;br /&gt;bottle until no more suds&lt;br /&gt;appear.&lt;br /&gt;7. Dump all the water out of the&lt;br /&gt;bottle.&lt;br /&gt;8. Put the clean glass bottle in the&lt;br /&gt;oven, set at 250 degrees&lt;br /&gt;Fahrenheit for about 10&lt;br /&gt;minutes to completely dry the&lt;br /&gt;inside of the bottle.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/523391152237892355-7651268729421440229?l=ehows.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ehows.blogspot.com/feeds/7651268729421440229/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://ehows.blogspot.com/2011/08/how-to-clean-out-oil-bottle.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/523391152237892355/posts/default/7651268729421440229'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/523391152237892355/posts/default/7651268729421440229'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ehows.blogspot.com/2011/08/how-to-clean-out-oil-bottle.html' title='How to Clean Out an Oil Bottle'/><author><name>Rohit</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08466820160218467039</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='29' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_HgZ6KshbDBA/TBsySIX2_aI/AAAAAAAAABU/YxipRieG2cQ/S220/BlueEyeTears.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-523391152237892355.post-381796338357891337</id><published>2011-08-31T01:11:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-08-31T01:11:51.072-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Hurricane Safety Tips'/><title type='text'>Hurricane Safety Tips</title><content type='html'>By Antonia James, an eHow&lt;br /&gt;Contributing Writer&lt;br /&gt;Hurricane damage in Sebastian,&lt;br /&gt;Florida 2004&lt;br /&gt;Thanks to technology,&lt;br /&gt;meteorologists have the tools to&lt;br /&gt;inform the public when a hurricane&lt;br /&gt;is coming. Proper disaster&lt;br /&gt;preparation will prevent damage to&lt;br /&gt;both people and property, and&lt;br /&gt;heeding hurricane safety tips will&lt;br /&gt;lessen the chances of injury before,&lt;br /&gt;during and after the storm. Stay&lt;br /&gt;informed, and take the storm&lt;br /&gt;seriously.&lt;br /&gt;1. Supplies&lt;br /&gt;Shop for food and water at&lt;br /&gt;the beginning of hurricane&lt;br /&gt;season to avoid a crowds&lt;br /&gt;and low supermarket stock.&lt;br /&gt;According to the National&lt;br /&gt;Hurricane Center, you&lt;br /&gt;should store enough food&lt;br /&gt;and water to sustain your&lt;br /&gt;family for three to seven&lt;br /&gt;days. Hurricanes have the&lt;br /&gt;ability to disrupt power&lt;br /&gt;and other utility services.&lt;br /&gt;Buy canned, non-perishable&lt;br /&gt;foods that can be eaten&lt;br /&gt;without having to be&lt;br /&gt;cooked. Be sure to have a&lt;br /&gt;hand-operated can opener&lt;br /&gt;so you can get the cans&lt;br /&gt;open in the event of power&lt;br /&gt;failure. Have enough&lt;br /&gt;bottled water for each&lt;br /&gt;family member. The&lt;br /&gt;recommended allotment is&lt;br /&gt;one gallon of water per day&lt;br /&gt;for each person in the&lt;br /&gt;household. Pack a first aid&lt;br /&gt;kid. Keep bandages and&lt;br /&gt;antibiotic cream on hand&lt;br /&gt;for minor injuries. Stock up&lt;br /&gt;on a seven-day supply of&lt;br /&gt;prescription medicines in&lt;br /&gt;case you cannot access a&lt;br /&gt;pharmacy after the storm.&lt;br /&gt;2. Communication&lt;br /&gt;Purchase safety and&lt;br /&gt;communication devices&lt;br /&gt;that run on batteries. Be&lt;br /&gt;sure to have enough&lt;br /&gt;batteries on hand for each&lt;br /&gt;device. Listen to a weather&lt;br /&gt;radio for emergency&lt;br /&gt;messages, important&lt;br /&gt;community information&lt;br /&gt;and hurricane updates. A&lt;br /&gt;flashlight will help you&lt;br /&gt;maneuver in the dark if the&lt;br /&gt;storm hits in the evening or&lt;br /&gt;if the power is out for a few&lt;br /&gt;days. Connect a telephone&lt;br /&gt;with a cord to a phone jack&lt;br /&gt;in the house. This type of&lt;br /&gt;phone does not need&lt;br /&gt;electricity to operate.&lt;br /&gt;Charge cell phones prior to&lt;br /&gt;the hurricane and use them&lt;br /&gt;sparingly once the storm&lt;br /&gt;begins to prolong battery&lt;br /&gt;life.&lt;br /&gt;3. Family Plan&lt;br /&gt;Discuss an emergency&lt;br /&gt;hurricane safety plan. Set&lt;br /&gt;up a room in the home as a&lt;br /&gt;designated safe room in&lt;br /&gt;the event of escalating&lt;br /&gt;wind. Evacuate if told to do&lt;br /&gt;so. Do not stay in your&lt;br /&gt;location if you are warned&lt;br /&gt;that it is not safe. Pay&lt;br /&gt;attention to community&lt;br /&gt;messages regarding&lt;br /&gt;evacuation routes and&lt;br /&gt;shelters. If you have pets,&lt;br /&gt;locate pet friendly shelters&lt;br /&gt;in your area in case you&lt;br /&gt;need to leave your home.&lt;br /&gt;Fill up the gas tank in the&lt;br /&gt;car to make sure that you&lt;br /&gt;have enough fuel to drive&lt;br /&gt;to another location if&lt;br /&gt;necessary. Do this several&lt;br /&gt;days before the storm. Do&lt;br /&gt;not wait until the day of the&lt;br /&gt;hurricane, as it is possible&lt;br /&gt;that gas stations could run&lt;br /&gt;out of fuel due to high&lt;br /&gt;demand. Have cash on&lt;br /&gt;hand, preferably smaller&lt;br /&gt;bills. In days following the&lt;br /&gt;hurricane, lack of electricity&lt;br /&gt;may make cash machines&lt;br /&gt;and credit card scanners&lt;br /&gt;inaccessible.&lt;br /&gt;4. Property&lt;br /&gt;Board windows with&lt;br /&gt;plywood or hurricane&lt;br /&gt;shutters to prevent flying&lt;br /&gt;glass. Placing sandbags&lt;br /&gt;around the perimeter of&lt;br /&gt;your home will decrease&lt;br /&gt;the chances of water&lt;br /&gt;getting into the house in&lt;br /&gt;the event of flooding. Trim&lt;br /&gt;trees and store patio&lt;br /&gt;furniture to avoid damage&lt;br /&gt;to both people and&lt;br /&gt;property from falling&lt;br /&gt;branches and windblown&lt;br /&gt;objects.&lt;br /&gt;Tips &amp; Warnings&lt;br /&gt;References&lt;br /&gt;National Hurricane Center&lt;br /&gt;HurricaneSafety.org&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/523391152237892355-381796338357891337?l=ehows.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ehows.blogspot.com/feeds/381796338357891337/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://ehows.blogspot.com/2011/08/hurricane-safety-tips.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/523391152237892355/posts/default/381796338357891337'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/523391152237892355/posts/default/381796338357891337'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ehows.blogspot.com/2011/08/hurricane-safety-tips.html' title='Hurricane Safety Tips'/><author><name>Rohit</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08466820160218467039</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='29' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_HgZ6KshbDBA/TBsySIX2_aI/AAAAAAAAABU/YxipRieG2cQ/S220/BlueEyeTears.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-523391152237892355.post-1909106773530316547</id><published>2011-08-31T01:09:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-08-31T01:09:14.606-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='How to Plan a Play Date for Your Child'/><title type='text'>How to Plan a Play Date for Your Child</title><content type='html'>By Emily Rogers, an eHow&lt;br /&gt;Contributing Writer&lt;br /&gt;Plan a fun play date for your child&lt;br /&gt;and his friend.&lt;br /&gt;When your child is young and is just&lt;br /&gt;starting to interact with other kids&lt;br /&gt;his own age, it can be very helpful to&lt;br /&gt;his social development to come up&lt;br /&gt;with play date ideas. Arrange play&lt;br /&gt;dates with his friends and help&lt;br /&gt;support social interaction with&lt;br /&gt;others. Many adults remember and&lt;br /&gt;are even still in contact with friends&lt;br /&gt;from preschool or kindergarten. Help&lt;br /&gt;your child build memories that will&lt;br /&gt;last a lifetime.&lt;br /&gt;Difficulty:&lt;br /&gt;Moderately Easy&lt;br /&gt;Instructions&lt;br /&gt;1. Choose a couple of friends that&lt;br /&gt;your child seems to interact&lt;br /&gt;with the most. Send a note to&lt;br /&gt;school for the children and&lt;br /&gt;share your thoughts about&lt;br /&gt;planning a play date. Another&lt;br /&gt;option is to have your child&lt;br /&gt;introduce you to the child's&lt;br /&gt;parent when picking her up&lt;br /&gt;from school or daycare.&lt;br /&gt;2. Discuss meeting somewhere&lt;br /&gt;where your child and his friend&lt;br /&gt;can have a fun time enjoying&lt;br /&gt;physical activities together.&lt;br /&gt;Some great ideas include the&lt;br /&gt;park, a pizza parlor or a fast&lt;br /&gt;food restaurant with a play&lt;br /&gt;area.&lt;br /&gt;3. Once your child develops a&lt;br /&gt;friendship with another child&lt;br /&gt;outside of school, consider&lt;br /&gt;inviting the child over to your&lt;br /&gt;home. This will give your child&lt;br /&gt;a chance to show off her&lt;br /&gt;personal space and practice&lt;br /&gt;sharing her favorite toys.&lt;br /&gt;4. Planning play dates for your&lt;br /&gt;child can help boost his&lt;br /&gt;confidence and develop a&lt;br /&gt;social life with other children&lt;br /&gt;his own age. Your child can&lt;br /&gt;learn to share, develop&lt;br /&gt;excellent social skills and have&lt;br /&gt;compassion for others.&lt;br /&gt;Tips &amp; Warnings&lt;br /&gt;References&lt;br /&gt;Nspt4kids: Building Social Skills&lt;br /&gt;Through Play Dates&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/523391152237892355-1909106773530316547?l=ehows.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ehows.blogspot.com/feeds/1909106773530316547/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://ehows.blogspot.com/2011/08/how-to-plan-play-date-for-your-child.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/523391152237892355/posts/default/1909106773530316547'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/523391152237892355/posts/default/1909106773530316547'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ehows.blogspot.com/2011/08/how-to-plan-play-date-for-your-child.html' title='How to Plan a Play Date for Your Child'/><author><name>Rohit</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08466820160218467039</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='29' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_HgZ6KshbDBA/TBsySIX2_aI/AAAAAAAAABU/YxipRieG2cQ/S220/BlueEyeTears.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-523391152237892355.post-1450437683019876910</id><published>2011-08-31T01:05:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-08-31T01:05:57.329-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='How to Get Your Child to Finish Homework'/><title type='text'>How to Get Your Child to Finish Homework</title><content type='html'>By S.F. Heron, an eHow Contributing&lt;br /&gt;Writer&lt;br /&gt;Get Your Child to Finish Homework&lt;br /&gt;It's a rare parent who doesn't face a&lt;br /&gt;homework struggle at some point&lt;br /&gt;during their child's school career.&lt;br /&gt;Complaints, delays, and excuses&lt;br /&gt;might be the norm in your house.&lt;br /&gt;What parents need to realize is that&lt;br /&gt;they have the ability to dictate the&lt;br /&gt;outcome of homework. It's up to you&lt;br /&gt;to create an environment that&lt;br /&gt;inspires learning and accountability&lt;br /&gt;on the part of your children. Most&lt;br /&gt;kids thrive on a schedule and not too&lt;br /&gt;many kids are incredibly self-&lt;br /&gt;motivated--it's way more fun to play&lt;br /&gt;outside, watch TV or surf the net&lt;br /&gt;than it is to do homework after a&lt;br /&gt;long, hard day at school. Homework&lt;br /&gt;needs to be approached as a daily&lt;br /&gt;routine. Routine requires planning&lt;br /&gt;so it's important to include your&lt;br /&gt;child is the development of a study&lt;br /&gt;routine. Some parents find that a&lt;br /&gt;snack and then immediate&lt;br /&gt;homework work best for their child.&lt;br /&gt;Others choose to give their kids an&lt;br /&gt;allotted amount of time as a break.&lt;br /&gt;This is entirely up to you. Try both&lt;br /&gt;ways to see what works best for you.&lt;br /&gt;Difficulty:&lt;br /&gt;Moderately Challenging&lt;br /&gt;Things You'll Need:&lt;br /&gt;Study area&lt;br /&gt;Study tools (pencils, pen, paper)&lt;br /&gt;School organizer or assignment&lt;br /&gt;book&lt;br /&gt;Instructions&lt;br /&gt;1. Set up a designated study area&lt;br /&gt;in your home. You might want&lt;br /&gt;your child in sight so the&lt;br /&gt;kitchen or dining room table is&lt;br /&gt;great. If you feel it's okay, let&lt;br /&gt;your child complete&lt;br /&gt;homework in his room. Have&lt;br /&gt;your child help you decide&lt;br /&gt;what is best. However, once&lt;br /&gt;the place is established, don't&lt;br /&gt;change it.&lt;br /&gt;2. Show your child how you&lt;br /&gt;expect assignments to be&lt;br /&gt;written down in their&lt;br /&gt;homework assignment book&lt;br /&gt;and that you expect the&lt;br /&gt;appropriate books and&lt;br /&gt;workbooks to be brought&lt;br /&gt;home. Remember that routine&lt;br /&gt;brings continuity to your child.&lt;br /&gt;3. Quiet down the house during&lt;br /&gt;study time. If your making&lt;br /&gt;dinner, greeting other children&lt;br /&gt;and answering the phone,&lt;br /&gt;that's way too much noise to&lt;br /&gt;concentrate. Homework time&lt;br /&gt;should be quiet. Other children&lt;br /&gt;should be kept busy with quiet&lt;br /&gt;activities. Color books are a&lt;br /&gt;great quiet time activity for&lt;br /&gt;younger siblings when older&lt;br /&gt;kids are doing homework.&lt;br /&gt;4. Set up a system of how you&lt;br /&gt;want your child to work. The&lt;br /&gt;sheer amount of work&lt;br /&gt;assigned for homework simply&lt;br /&gt;overwhelms many kids. Break&lt;br /&gt;out assignment book and&lt;br /&gt;make a plan with your child's&lt;br /&gt;help. Often, after a long day at&lt;br /&gt;school, your child needs a&lt;br /&gt;mental break. Try the easy&lt;br /&gt;work first and move to the&lt;br /&gt;more complicated&lt;br /&gt;assignments next. Or better&lt;br /&gt;yet, ask for your child's input&lt;br /&gt;on what he'd prefer to work on&lt;br /&gt;first.&lt;br /&gt;5. Be available to assist but don't&lt;br /&gt;do the work. Your child is&lt;br /&gt;attending school, not you.&lt;br /&gt;You're a resource, much like an&lt;br /&gt;encyclopedia.&lt;br /&gt;6. Teach your child to pace&lt;br /&gt;themselves for larger&lt;br /&gt;assignments. Term papers or&lt;br /&gt;projects are much less stressful&lt;br /&gt;for both you and your child if&lt;br /&gt;he performs the work in small&lt;br /&gt;intervals.&lt;br /&gt;7. Use incentives carefully.&lt;br /&gt;Incentives would be a ice&lt;br /&gt;cream date with Mom for a&lt;br /&gt;week of properly completed&lt;br /&gt;homework or a movie after a&lt;br /&gt;month, and so on. Your aim is&lt;br /&gt;to take the argument and&lt;br /&gt;frustration out of the equation&lt;br /&gt;of completing homework.&lt;br /&gt;Incentives might be the spark&lt;br /&gt;for your child to get them on&lt;br /&gt;the path to completing their&lt;br /&gt;work in a timely manner.&lt;br /&gt;8. Praise a job well done. Kids&lt;br /&gt;glow under the praise of their&lt;br /&gt;parents. Heap the kudos on&lt;br /&gt;your child for completed work.&lt;br /&gt;Your kind words will go farther&lt;br /&gt;than any ice cream or treat.&lt;br /&gt;9. Consider having your child&lt;br /&gt;read quietly every night.&lt;br /&gt;Reading helps with&lt;br /&gt;concentration and&lt;br /&gt;comprehension that is a skill&lt;br /&gt;that can be used in any school&lt;br /&gt;subject.&lt;br /&gt;Tips &amp; Warnings&lt;br /&gt;Photo Credit&lt;br /&gt;Jupiterimages/Comstock/Getty&lt;br /&gt;Images&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/523391152237892355-1450437683019876910?l=ehows.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ehows.blogspot.com/feeds/1450437683019876910/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://ehows.blogspot.com/2011/08/how-to-get-your-child-to-finish.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/523391152237892355/posts/default/1450437683019876910'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/523391152237892355/posts/default/1450437683019876910'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ehows.blogspot.com/2011/08/how-to-get-your-child-to-finish.html' title='How to Get Your Child to Finish Homework'/><author><name>Rohit</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08466820160218467039</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='29' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_HgZ6KshbDBA/TBsySIX2_aI/AAAAAAAAABU/YxipRieG2cQ/S220/BlueEyeTears.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-523391152237892355.post-8634469557312254043</id><published>2011-08-31T00:59:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-08-31T00:59:02.142-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Healthy Apple'/><title type='text'>How to Eat a Healthy Balanced Diet</title><content type='html'>By Nicky LaMarco, an eHow&lt;br /&gt;Contributing Writer&lt;br /&gt;Apple&lt;br /&gt;Eating a healthy, balanced diet is&lt;br /&gt;important for sustained energy and&lt;br /&gt;illness prevention. Eating healthy is&lt;br /&gt;not about cutting calories or strict&lt;br /&gt;dieting; it's about ensuring your&lt;br /&gt;body gets the nutrients it needs to&lt;br /&gt;thrive.&lt;br /&gt;Difficulty:&lt;br /&gt;Easy&lt;br /&gt;Instructions&lt;br /&gt;1. Avoid cutting calories, but do&lt;br /&gt;not consume too much.&lt;br /&gt;Healthy and active adults need&lt;br /&gt;approximately 2,000 calories a&lt;br /&gt;day. The more exercise you do,&lt;br /&gt;the more calories you need.&lt;br /&gt;Use a daily calorie calculator&lt;br /&gt;(see Resources section below)&lt;br /&gt;to determine how many&lt;br /&gt;calories you need each day.&lt;br /&gt;2. Add fruits and vegetables to&lt;br /&gt;every meal, and even to&lt;br /&gt;snacks. For example, add&lt;br /&gt;bananas to your cereal at&lt;br /&gt;breakfast, eat a salad and an&lt;br /&gt;apple with lunch and have&lt;br /&gt;tomatoes and canned peaches&lt;br /&gt;with your dinner. This can help&lt;br /&gt;you get the recommended&lt;br /&gt;three to five (or more)&lt;br /&gt;servings of fruits and&lt;br /&gt;vegetables.&lt;br /&gt;3. Try new foods. Make an effort&lt;br /&gt;to pick out something new at&lt;br /&gt;the grocery store every week.&lt;br /&gt;Browse the produce section&lt;br /&gt;and choose a fruit you have&lt;br /&gt;never had before. This can help&lt;br /&gt;give you a healthier, more&lt;br /&gt;balanced diet so you're not&lt;br /&gt;eating the same things all the&lt;br /&gt;time.&lt;br /&gt;4. Check your portions. More&lt;br /&gt;appropriate portions can make&lt;br /&gt;a huge difference. One way to&lt;br /&gt;check portions is to read the&lt;br /&gt;nutrition label and see the&lt;br /&gt;recommended serving size.&lt;br /&gt;(See the link in the Resources&lt;br /&gt;section below for appropriate&lt;br /&gt;portions.)&lt;br /&gt;5. Cut out excess sugars, salts,&lt;br /&gt;caffeine and alcohol. These (in&lt;br /&gt;excess) are toxic to the body&lt;br /&gt;and will deplete nutrients. Eat&lt;br /&gt;a healthy well balanced diet&lt;br /&gt;and enjoy your foods and&lt;br /&gt;drinks containing these toxins&lt;br /&gt;in moderation only, or cut&lt;br /&gt;them out altogether.&lt;br /&gt;6. Clean your home of junk food.&lt;br /&gt;If it isn't there you are less&lt;br /&gt;likely to eat it, especially at&lt;br /&gt;nighttime. When you are able&lt;br /&gt;to cut out junk foods (sugary,&lt;br /&gt;salty snacks) you will eat what&lt;br /&gt;is available in your home,&lt;br /&gt;which should be healthy&lt;br /&gt;choices such as fruits,&lt;br /&gt;vegetables, pretzels, and&lt;br /&gt;crackers.&lt;br /&gt;7. Balance your diet with&lt;br /&gt;proteins and carbohydrates.&lt;br /&gt;Include meats, beans and fish&lt;br /&gt;for protein. Avoid cutting out&lt;br /&gt;carbohydrates, as you need&lt;br /&gt;these for energy. Fruits,&lt;br /&gt;vegetables, whole grains and&lt;br /&gt;pasta contain needed&lt;br /&gt;carbohydrates.&lt;br /&gt;Tips &amp; Warnings&lt;br /&gt;Drink more water. Instead of a&lt;br /&gt;soda or beer, have a glass of&lt;br /&gt;water. Chew food thoroughly.&lt;br /&gt;Rushing a meal is not healthy.&lt;br /&gt;Always have a healthy breakfast.&lt;br /&gt;Avoid late-night snacks.&lt;br /&gt;References&lt;br /&gt;Healthy Eating&lt;br /&gt;Resources&lt;br /&gt;Daily Calorie Calculator&lt;br /&gt;Portion Sizes&lt;br /&gt;Photo Credit&lt;br /&gt;http://www.morguefile.com/&lt;br /&gt;archive/display/554912&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/523391152237892355-8634469557312254043?l=ehows.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ehows.blogspot.com/feeds/8634469557312254043/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://ehows.blogspot.com/2011/08/how-to-eat-healthy-balanced-diet.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/523391152237892355/posts/default/8634469557312254043'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/523391152237892355/posts/default/8634469557312254043'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ehows.blogspot.com/2011/08/how-to-eat-healthy-balanced-diet.html' title='How to Eat a Healthy Balanced Diet'/><author><name>Rohit</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08466820160218467039</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='29' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_HgZ6KshbDBA/TBsySIX2_aI/AAAAAAAAABU/YxipRieG2cQ/S220/BlueEyeTears.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-523391152237892355.post-8599766501280359897</id><published>2011-08-31T00:40:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-08-31T00:40:52.506-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Stylist Hair'/><title type='text'>How to Find a Hair Stylist</title><content type='html'>By Ang Berg, an eHow Contributing&lt;br /&gt;Writer&lt;br /&gt;Find a Hair Stylist&lt;br /&gt;Finding a hairstylist who is not only&lt;br /&gt;great at his profession but reliable&lt;br /&gt;and enjoyable to be around can be a&lt;br /&gt;time consuming and frustrating task.&lt;br /&gt;Follow these steps to make sure your&lt;br /&gt;next hairstylist knows how to work&lt;br /&gt;with you, your hair and personal&lt;br /&gt;style, to help you feel beautiful after&lt;br /&gt;every appointment.&lt;br /&gt;Difficulty:&lt;br /&gt;Moderate&lt;br /&gt;Things You'll Need:&lt;br /&gt;phonebook, internet&lt;br /&gt;Instructions&lt;br /&gt;1. Ask for referrals. The best way&lt;br /&gt;to find a new hairstylist is to&lt;br /&gt;ask friends and family for a&lt;br /&gt;reference. Ask people who you&lt;br /&gt;trust that have hairstyles they&lt;br /&gt;like. It is also important to&lt;br /&gt;inquire about the price the&lt;br /&gt;hairstylist typically charges for&lt;br /&gt;services to avoid wasting time&lt;br /&gt;with a stylist who you may not&lt;br /&gt;be able to regularly afford.&lt;br /&gt;Plus, no one wants sticker&lt;br /&gt;shock after getting the best&lt;br /&gt;haircut they've ever had.&lt;br /&gt;2. If you see someone who has a&lt;br /&gt;hairstyle that you desire, ask&lt;br /&gt;them for a reference. When&lt;br /&gt;walking down the street or&lt;br /&gt;working out at the gym, don't&lt;br /&gt;be afraid to ask someone who&lt;br /&gt;does their hair. Seeking a&lt;br /&gt;reference from an unbiased&lt;br /&gt;source can eliminate pressure&lt;br /&gt;to go to a certain stylist&lt;br /&gt;because of perceived&lt;br /&gt;obligation to a friend or family&lt;br /&gt;member who referred you to a&lt;br /&gt;particular stylist.&lt;br /&gt;3. Use the phone book, Internet&lt;br /&gt;and local newspapers as a&lt;br /&gt;guide. Look through the yellow&lt;br /&gt;pages of your phone book or&lt;br /&gt;online for advertisements;&lt;br /&gt;often times salons or&lt;br /&gt;individual stylists will&lt;br /&gt;advertise their areas of&lt;br /&gt;expertise. Take note of the&lt;br /&gt;claimed expertise and&lt;br /&gt;compare them to your own&lt;br /&gt;needs. You could also contact&lt;br /&gt;the style or fashion reporter at&lt;br /&gt;your local newspaper for an&lt;br /&gt;unbiased opinion about local&lt;br /&gt;talent.&lt;br /&gt;4. Compile a list of potential&lt;br /&gt;hairstylists. Based on the&lt;br /&gt;referrals that you were given,&lt;br /&gt;make a list of the five most&lt;br /&gt;promising. Visit the salon of&lt;br /&gt;the stylists to get a feel for the&lt;br /&gt;atmosphere and to get a sneak&lt;br /&gt;peek at the recommended hair&lt;br /&gt;pro. If you feel uncomfortable&lt;br /&gt;or out of place during your&lt;br /&gt;visit, take the stylist off your&lt;br /&gt;list. Getting your hair styled&lt;br /&gt;should be an enjoyable&lt;br /&gt;experience and you should&lt;br /&gt;always get what you want.&lt;br /&gt;5. Schedule a consultation. After&lt;br /&gt;determining the salons that&lt;br /&gt;you would feel comfortable&lt;br /&gt;regularly visiting, schedule a&lt;br /&gt;consultation with the stylist to&lt;br /&gt;discuss your needs and hear&lt;br /&gt;her recommendations. You&lt;br /&gt;should ask about prices,&lt;br /&gt;recommended products and&lt;br /&gt;areas of expertise. Also be sure&lt;br /&gt;to discuss your hair history&lt;br /&gt;and past styles that you did&lt;br /&gt;and didn't like. If the&lt;br /&gt;consultation is going smoothly&lt;br /&gt;and you feel comfortable with&lt;br /&gt;the hairstylist, allow him to&lt;br /&gt;work on your hair. If you don't&lt;br /&gt;feel comfortable during the&lt;br /&gt;consultation, don't feel&lt;br /&gt;pressured for a cut or styling.&lt;br /&gt;6. Compare your consultations.&lt;br /&gt;After visiting with the&lt;br /&gt;prospective stylists, determine&lt;br /&gt;who would best meet your&lt;br /&gt;hairstyling needs and schedule&lt;br /&gt;an appointment. If your first&lt;br /&gt;couple of visits don't go well,&lt;br /&gt;schedule an appointment with&lt;br /&gt;another stylist on your list.&lt;br /&gt;Tips &amp; Warnings&lt;br /&gt;Be patient. Finding the perfect&lt;br /&gt;hairstylist can be time consuming&lt;br /&gt;and often requires you to visit&lt;br /&gt;numerous stylists before finding&lt;br /&gt;the one that is best for you.&lt;br /&gt;Photo Credit&lt;br /&gt;www.indiwo.com&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/523391152237892355-8599766501280359897?l=ehows.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ehows.blogspot.com/feeds/8599766501280359897/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://ehows.blogspot.com/2011/08/how-to-find-hair-stylist.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/523391152237892355/posts/default/8599766501280359897'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/523391152237892355/posts/default/8599766501280359897'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ehows.blogspot.com/2011/08/how-to-find-hair-stylist.html' title='How to Find a Hair Stylist'/><author><name>Rohit</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08466820160218467039</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='29' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_HgZ6KshbDBA/TBsySIX2_aI/AAAAAAAAABU/YxipRieG2cQ/S220/BlueEyeTears.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
