and be yourself unless your a real jerk
Ok so it just so happens my first date with my fiance was at a club. It was also the first time we met each other so I was super nervous. When he picked me up, he brought me a jolly rancher... it was something that had a funny story behind it when we were talking. I was shocked he remembered and it made me smile right off the bat. When we got to the club I was a little nervous about dancing with him, so he took me to the dance floor, right in the middle and started dancing like a goof just to make me feel more comfortable. It was hysterical watching him and made me feel so much more at ease. We danced all night and it was the best first date I've ever been on, hence why i'm marrying the guy ha ha. Just be yourself and let yourself have fun. Hope this helped!
on a club, it's quite very easy if the girl is attracted to you...depends on your attitude, body language, the way you have fun and enjoy yourself, the way you talk and confidence. and also the way you care,handle and treat the ladies...





same goes for the first date but you gotta show a little more (but not totally) about yourself and your interests to the girl....and you gotta at least give the girl something like flowers or treat her a snack or dinner on the first date...depends on you...
You can do that by being your self...but don;t know if its good to do that in a club when you want to date with her...just take her out somewhere talk to her about you and stuff like that...she will smile and eventually laugh if she had a good time with you and if she likes you


so be your self and don't worry...the girl will smile at you ;)
Just be yourself. There's nothing more refreshing then seeing a guy who wants to impress you for who he is.





I think it's great when a guy can be goofy,serious, sweet, and just relaxed around me. It's totally attractive.





If you want to break the ice tell a dumb joke like, What Do Fish Say When They Hit a Concrete Wall?


Dam!








A guy told me this joke once and It was just too cute and funny! It made me think, smile, and then laugh! :) All good things in my book!





or maybe a funny pick up line like this





You see my friend over there? [Point to friend who sheepishly waves from afar] He wants to know if YOU think I'M cute.





There are countless and not to mention clean jokes and pick up lines like this on the internet.





I am sure you already know this but never ever tell a dirty joke or use a dirty pick up line such as ';Nice shoes, wanna f*ck?'; This will backfire anywhere you use it and you'd better hope that girl is in a really good mood and that she's either single or her boyfriend isn't around.


I am sure you wouldn't say anything like that. I just thought I'd point it out for anybody else that may have said or be thinking of saying that.





%26lt;3 good luck!!!!
well.... i think the best way to make them laugh is to find out what they like , then see if you can come up with a joke or two that will be silly but not make fun of that thing . on a first date i would'nt try to make them laugh , i'd try to make them relax and have fun-- find a common like and work on that then go for that laugh by letting them see you do something funny.
The best thing to do is try to strike up a real conversation -- easier done on the date than in the club. Once you get her talking, you'll be able to see what her sense of humor is like, putting you in a better position to make her laugh.





The key is to be real and genuine. Pick up lines or corny jokes won't get you there. Good luck!
at a club if you guys are dancing or whatever do something funny, like a wierd dance move to make her laugh. or mock someone you think is dancing funny.


on a first date or whatever give her compliments. but not corny ones. just like honest compliments. tell her you like her shoes or something she's wearing (because she probably took hours to pick it out and she'd love to be recognized for it). idk do something funny. just be really casual and relaxed with her.





hope i helped. good luck and have fun(:!
you have to be enjoying the date yourself in order for her to enjoy herself!





if you know what sort of comedy shows she likes then you know what she laughs at.





randomly surprise her with flowers, always makes a girl smile when you get them unexpected gifts.





in a club just have a good time, maybe don't try to make her laugh, let it come naturally, jsut be yourself!
In a club it might be impossible with the loud music blaring. You just have to have her interest as a guy and be interesting with your conversation.





But if you have to ask chances are you'll be trying to hard in which case you might fail miserably. So your best bet is to just be yourself and don't TRY to make her laugh--let it come naturally because unless you're a comic, TRYING will prove to be futile. Good luck.
hm...maybe smile...and look in her eyes...hold her close to you...maybe kiss her cheek...





i know what makes me smile is just holding on to a guy...and just him being himself...because if you want a girl to smile/laugh...just be who you are...but try and be a little funny...but don't try to hard.





hope i helpd!!
aw..


i'm glad somebody asked that question...


for me, i actually smile and laugh all the time..


but what makes me really happy is when a guy shows me that he really cares like when he asks me if i already eaten? or am i alright?


it's a nice feeling to know that someone care for you and someone's thinking of you.
try being funny. like say some jokes.


but not those cornny knock-knock jokes.


like the ';sarcastic'; jokes.


girls think those are funny.


%26amp;dont try to hard.


(and if you wanna make her smile,


you can just smile at her :)





just try to be yourself.





hope these helped. :]
Bring a cake and offer girls a slice of cake. Cake works for me. I always smile when presented with cake. It would be a unique, unforgettable approach...go on.... be daring.... be different.... Bring a cake to a club....



the best thing you can do is be YOU ... there is no point in pretending to be a stand up comedian as it will get very boring very quick for the both of you ..... just act normal and dont try to hard =)
be yourself, not if yourself is a slob lol. try making her laugh by pointing out your flaws, or talk about other people around you, need first date advice, u can email me anytime at restricted_palace@yahoo.com, good luck!
Just be your natural self, when you plan scenario's for yourself they tend not to work and your left wondering what to do next.
To make her smile, look her in the eyes and smile at her for about 1min..


To make her laugh, tickle her or do something stupid like dressing up as a girl! :)
If the girl really likes you she should laugh at your jokes even if they aren't funny. It's unsaid relationship code.
On a first date, you should be humorous. Girls like guys that are funny.





In a club, make a sexual move.
Just be yourself it will come naturally. Also don't over try to be funny it might turn a girl off.
makes jokes


but not lame ones like u get on a cereal box


and she might laugh for no reason cuz she likes u


hope i helped :D
Hahahahaheeheha! You just have!
IDK in a club





On a first date, share funny stories of people you both know, and make fun of yourself.
smile - it's contageous!! Also joke around but don't be a dick head.
Jokes! ( Sense Of Humour)


Or Just Smiling at her and she'll smile back


Get her a present


wink!
SMILE and LAUGH yourself. Your welcome.
Smile at her and she'll smile back.

Does anyone have advice on how to teach my 11 year old to control his emotions while participating in sports?

He often gets upset when officials aren't calling fouls or when they are making wrong calls... He wants to do his best and he is usually a good team leader - but his temper sometimes gets the better of him.Does anyone have advice on how to teach my 11 year old to control his emotions while participating in sports?
1. Tell him that emotional outbursts can be and probably are detrimental to his performance. Tell him to put the emotion into his gameplay (effort, determination, etc.)





2. Tell him that emotional outbursts can get him in trouble both with the refs and with the coach. If he is prevented from playing, then he can't have the things that he loves about playing: competition, physical activity, demonstration of skill, and so on.





Make a deal with him: ask him to try playing with a ';cool head'; for at least half the season. While doing so, ask him to notice whether he increases his awareness, focus, and level of performance and whether he gets into less trouble. He can be a very good player with more focus on the game and his own performance.





Bad calls are part of any refereed game, and both sides are at risk of getting bad calls. He should play the best he can to try to minimize the bad calls, but he should realize that bad calls happen.Does anyone have advice on how to teach my 11 year old to control his emotions while participating in sports?
Sounds like he needs to learn good sportsmanship. If he can't be a good loser as well as a winner, then, he shouldn't be allowed to play. Talk to your son's coach about this. Maybe he has some suggestions on this matter. Or is the coach exhibiting the same behaviors and your son is modeling him? If your son continues to lose his temper during games, then, he should sit out whenever he loses control. Maybe that will help him control his outbursts.
Play him a video of some great athletes in any sport (best if from the same sport as your kid).





But really great ones, where he'll clearly see how calm (but still excellent) and great the really great ones are.
Tell him that no one is a perfect judge of a situation. Maybe a ref isn't judging a situation correctly but then, if that can be true, maybe your son isn't judging the situation of the ref's decision correctly either! There's no 'smarter' person, just people viewing from different points. If he stops thinking he's smarter than the ref, he'll enjoy the game a lot more. After all, there are plenty of people around, on the sidelines and in the stands. Does he really think he has the burden of reacting to injustice? Tell him to let consenus decide instead of him deciding.
tell him if he dont control himself ,you not letting him participate in it anymore.and try explaining to him that bad sportsman ship is not good.Winning isnt everything
Sounds to me like he is mimiking what he has seen/heard from adults in the stands and now he thinks he can do it too. I would catch it on the video camera and show him later.

Can anyone give advice for how to find scholarships and grants?

Well, Bored C%26amp;C:





First of all - if you're looking for a college ';grant';, there are three and only three places to go looking.





The federal government


Your state


Your school





Schools don't really have ';grants';, so I guess we could cross that one off the list.





The federal government offers grants as part of its student aid program. Eligibility for a grant is determined entirely by the financial circumstances of your household. If you demonstrate ';exceptional need'; (which only one out of every three aid applicants does), you will qualify for the federal government's ';need-based'; aid programs, which include the Pell Grant, the FSEOG Grant, the SMART Grant, and the ACG Grant.





You apply for all forms of federal student aid the same way - by completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid, or FAFSA. You'll find that application here: http://fafsa.ed.gov





The FAFSA asks more than 100 questions - and your answers are used by the US Department of Education to evaluate your financial aid need. They will compute a score known as your Expected Family Contribution, and they'll pass that score along to the financial aid office at your school.





If your EFC score falls below 4041, that indicates that you have demonstrated ';exceptional need';, and you'll be eligible for the grants that I mentioned above. The only one of those grants that you are guaranteed to receive (assuming you demonstrate exceptional need, of course) is the Pell Grant. All of those other grants have additional criteria, and are awarded by your school on a case-by-case basis.





If you live in one of a few states that provides them, you may be able to take advantage of grants from your state Department of Education, also. Some of the states that offer this type of supplementary support are California (Cal Grant), New York (Tuition Assistance Program), Georgia (HOPE) and Michigan (Michigan Tuition Grant). All of these grants are need-based - you will only qualify if you meet certain low-income criteria (which differ from state to state).





How do you find scholarships? That's what everyone would like to know. Your best resource is right there at your high school - he or she is sitting in the guidance department, waiting for you to stop by.





High school guidance counselors have lots of info on local scholarships, and scholarships that other students from your school have had success with in the past. They also have thick books of scholarships. You can try fastweb.com, but be forewarned that everyone who has ever asked this question here has had fastweb.com suggested to them - plus - you'll be inviting all sorts of companies to spam you - in the friendliest possible way, of course. I mean, you DO need to know about that special senior ring offer and graduation announcements.





I hope that info helps you get started. Good luck!Can anyone give advice for how to find scholarships and grants?
if they have the information I guess they can pass it along but I would be careful if someone is asking you to pay for this Information

Slow down: Driving too fast is the No. 1 winter driving error.





Look ahead: ';Winter drivers need to use their eyes more effectively.





Brake before you enter a corner:





Learn how to control a skid.





Mastering control of your vehicle in snow and other winter driving conditions comes with learning proper driving techniques and with experience.





In time, you should develop what he calls a good ';seat of the pants'; feel for winter driving, meaning an intuition about how your car will behave in certain situations and circumstances.





Until then, go slow in the snow. Or stay home and make hot chocolate.Nd advice: how to drive acura/integra frnt wheel drive, w/lowered, low profile all season tires in the snow?
You need some (cable type) snow chains on your front wheels if you can find some that will fit without rubbing.

Eye contact. Let him catch you looking at him before you look away all coy and shy, then quickly look back to see if he's still looking at you and you smile then lower your head. Works like a charm.
Just ask him if he wants to **** your ***!!

I need beginer advice on how to play the guitar?

some advice on how to tune your guitar and how to play itI need beginer advice on how to play the guitar?
Go to your local library and check out how-to books and dvd's.I need beginer advice on how to play the guitar?
Get a good guitar tuner such as a Korg or Boss tuner. Should come with instructions. Trying to tune by ear as a beginner is not advised.





Once you've got it tuned check out guitar tab for some songs you like by searching on Yahoo or Google or whatever you normally use, there's loads of sites.





Or buy a chord book and practice making the shapes on the fretboard while learning to strum in time.
Call a music shop you trust and ask for lessons. I started a week ago and it's going really well. Your fingers will hurt for a few days but you will be surprised at how fast it goes. They will teach you about tuning - but get a little electronice tuner. They cost about $20 and make tuning so much easier. Good luck!
You really have to take lessons.


Very few are naturals that can be really good solo.
There's a way to tune by sound and pressing on one string at a time but its to complicated to write down but easy to show. Your best shot is to buy a tuner. I know how to tune by ear but I would still buy a small tuner.


Easy way to learn for beginner is to start learning songs with few keys repeating itself. Like G, E, C


I have to warn you when you first start its addicting but your fingers hurt and harden from the strings.


Find someone to teach you the basics. get a one on one lesson.
well you can buy a tuner and it will come with instructions! you can also get instructional videos on how to play the guitar! they helped me alot
Get yourself a good chord book and go for it (that's how I taught myself.)


Also, if you have problems with sore fingers you might considered going to lighter gauge strings to start off with (Super Slinky).


Most important, don't get discouraged. Like many things it takes time and a lot of practice, just keep at it.
lessons at my guitar music place only cost about $16 dollars per session, so it would be good if at least once a month or whenever you're stuck to pay for a quick session
Just take the pick (or your fingers) and strum away, it makes a nice sound that people will pay money to hear.
Play guitar? hmm i leared how to nimbly move my hands by playing Guitar Hero II and it works makes you move faster from the frets.
ha, im in the same place..i actually dont have a guitar yet..
get a tuner.


get a beginners book or learn tab and play bands songs like avenged sevenfold like i did...





but start with a beginners book
Honestly you should just get lessons, i tried reading books and whatnot on how to play bass. nothing helps like having a teacher there so you can ask questions and stuff. stick with it, playing guitar is the best escape for me so i hope you do well.

Anyone with general advice on how to take good pics with this camera?

Read and study the Owner's Manual. Then read and study it again.





Check at your local library for books on photography. While there, check the photography magazines they have. Pick one you especially like and subscribe to it.





I'm sorry there is no ';magic wand'; to wave to make you a skilled photographer. It takes time and practice and experimentation and making mistakes and learning from them.Anyone with general advice on how to take good pics with this camera?
What Edwin said plus practices, practices,practices.
Well as a general rule natural light is best but when taking photos indoors make sure the light source is coming from behind you.
as with any other camera, use a tripod if possible and learn composition to start with








a
Don't worry about lights, tripod and anything else just yet - I think the most important thing in photography is yourself - whether you have a good sense in photography or not, that is.





Composition plays an important part when it comes to photography. Learn about it first. Take a look around - anything from real life to photograph to painting.





Learn how to work with your camera - read the manual, try to play around with it a little bit, try take experimental shots on your own and just have fun with it.





Like someone before me, learning is a process and it takes time. From my personal experience, sometimes I feel stuck with my learning ability - but don't give up! Being stuck is normal (well at least for me) but after some time I came around with it and ready to learn even more. :D

Think small, as larger organizations won't even talk to you unless you have a HIGH VOLUME site.





I've done this myself and, as long as you keep up your end of the bargain, it's a very easy way for evryone with ';startup'; sites to get a lot of free advertising!





You have to think creatively. Think of where your target clientele will be surfing.





BE HONEST! IE; don't try to advertise porn on an auto insurance web site, and NEVER do mass emailings (spamming)! Unscrupulous internet practices can cost you dearly in the long run.





You will also find that there are scads of free classified ad sites online. This is also a free easy way to get your name out there. These types of sites are frequented by online bargain hunters, and are an excellent platform to advertise almost anything!

Keep it short...like matt Lauer...that looks the best








http://www.imdb.com/gallery/granitz/6152鈥?/a>I am 36 and my hair has been slowly falling, I need some advice on how to comb it, or how to style it?
I started to lose my hair when I was early twenties, then when I hit 30's the top of my head had very few hairs, and not enough to comb or brush, so my wife told me about 3 years ago (i was 35) just to shave it since I kept it so short anyway, and after getting over the shock of shaving it, I shave it every 2-3 day now and i love it.


Dont be one of those 1970's comb-overs


go bald gracefully, dont fight it, unless you are totally vain (and it doesnt sound that you are)
i'm not a stylist so i can't help you with the best way to comb your hair but heard of some natural products that can enhance hair growth :


scalp massage using cactus oil.


scalp rubbing using red garlic.


Don't have any clue for the bad smell of garlic !
Go with dignity dude... reach for the razor blade. There is no way of making it look better. It just looks pretty sad when people try and cover it up.





Provided you choose the right clothes a shaved head isnt too bad.

Going to an 80's party and need advice how to cut a sweater for the 'off the shoulder look';?

I was wondering how to cut a normal sweater so that it hangs off the shoulder.





It's kind of a one chance deal with cutting the sweater so I was wondering how it should be done.





Thxs,


~cGoing to an 80's party and need advice how to cut a sweater for the 'off the shoulder look';?
cut it from the neckline straight out to the edge of your shoulders, like making a slit. Go slow, as you don't want to cut too far, then then whole sweater is a gonner. Cut a couple of inches on each side. There is actually a seam line where you will be cutting. Then try the sweater on until you get the depth of the look that you want. In fact, if you go to the Goodwill, you might even find one like that on the rack!





To look at the sweater on a person, the neckline doesn't dip down in front to show cleavage, it shows off the tops of the shoulders and neck.Going to an 80's party and need advice how to cut a sweater for the 'off the shoulder look';?
Sweaters are rough -- they unravel if you cut them and can be a big mess! Maybe you should get an old sweatshirt or t-shirt, cut the neck bigger, try it on, and cut it bigger if it's not ';off the shoulder'; enough. Then, get your sweater, or preferably a different knit top and cut it with the ';template'; that you made from your old t-shirt or sweatshirt.





Best of luck! Have fun at the party!
The neck of the sweater needs to be stretched out. You CAN cut it, but you would have to make sure it's not a button down sweater first of all. And when you cut it, cut the ';collar'; off the neck but not so much on the front or back. This hard to explain. But I hope this helps some.

Someone please give me advice how to get rid of the horrible scars I have on my legs from mosquitoe bites?

Last summer we had a bad out break of mosquitoes by my house. my legs suffered the worst because I'm allergic my skin is extremely sensitive and no matter what i tried to do not to scratch them it didn't work. I tried all of the repellents and it seemed to make them worse. I tried anti itching creme, benadryll pills, and the stuff you put on kids to keep them from itching i can't remember the name but it didn't work.


Now I have ugly scarred legs and i'm embarrased to where shorts so i just wear capris. and it's getting really hot here and i would love to wear shorts.


anyone have any suggestions as to how to reduce the scarsSomeone please give me advice how to get rid of the horrible scars I have on my legs from mosquitoe bites?
I notice that the best way to get rid of my scars is to get a good tan! I know it sounds silly, but it really works. The scars are almost invisible due to the tan and then in the winter they come back lighter every year. So, go lay out by the pool and if anyone asks, just say its for your health!! ;)Someone please give me advice how to get rid of the horrible scars I have on my legs from mosquitoe bites?
Getting a tan makes them pop out more. i tried it. i have the same exact problem! everyone tells me to use coco butter and they will go away

Report Abuse

Plain and simple butter from the fridge will work. It will take several weeks of having butter on your skin. I grew up in northern Minnesota and that's what my grammy did for me.
There are creams in the pharmacy in the aisle with bandages and first aid. There are different kinds but basically they will say for the treatment of scars. Some of them come in bandage form. Try treating your legs. I would suggest a mild self tanning cream, but you may end up scratching that depending on what's in it. Just know that all of us have a scar or something somewhere that we are embarrassed of.
Get MiraCell!!!!!! It completely dissolves scar tissue; It's all natural, and reasonably priced. It has done some amazing things, I've seen. You need to check this out!! You'll love it!!!

Bunny had babies. We've been given lots of conflicting advice on how to care for brand new babies. Please hel

One lady told us to separate mom from babies until tomorrow morning and she will be more accepting and feed them. Do you have any advice?Bunny had babies. We've been given lots of conflicting advice on how to care for brand new babies. Please hel
Do not separate the mother and babies. I have never heard that this will help the mother be more accepting.

Yeah, definitely keep your eyes on then at all times (mom and babies)! good luck hope you have enough space! :)
Dont separate the babies from the mother.

This page is a very good place to start your reading.


I've copied some of the probably most relevant parts for you.





Is There A Problem?


Often times people are concerned that the mother rabbit ';is not feeding the babies,'; sometimes because she is never seen with them. This is normal behavior for a domestic (or wild) rabbit and that mother rabbits do not ';lay'; with their offspring in the same manner as dogs and cats.





Domestic rabbits retain some of the genetic imprints of their wild European ancestors, who are animals preyed upon by others in nature. Mother rabbits instinctually sense that staying with their offspring would call a predator's attention to the nest. Adult rabbits have a scent, while babies do not yest have a strong scent.





Most mother rabbits will not hop into the nest (or box) to check on their infants during the day, although she is usually watching from a safe distance. This is normal behavior.





Rabbits feed their offspring only once or twice per day and will only do so when they feel safe, usually just before dawn and/or just after dusk. If humans and children are continually gathered around the cage, the mother may become too stressed to nurse the infants.





There is a way to determine that the mother is indeed feeding the offspring. Did the mother rabbit pull fur? Did she shred papers, or gather hay or rip up carpeting (if housed indoors) in an attempt to ';make a nest?'; Mother rabbits usually make a nest any time between a few days prior to the birth up to the day of birth itself. She may also do so without an actual pregnancy.





A mature female will often pull fur to make a nest, with or without a male present and regardless of whether actual mating has occurred. This hormonal behavior is known as a ';false pregnancy.';





If the mother has pulled fur in an attempt to make a nest, she will probably be all right if her nest is appropriate. It is safe to examine the babies and move them, with the mother, to a more proper place, if necessary.





Creating A Nest


If the babies are scattered, cold and do not have plump tummies, the mother needs help making a proper nest box, and the babies need to be warmed up before anything else is attempted. No baby mammals can successful digest foods if their body temperature is below normal. This is extremely important to understand.





In this case, warm the babies as follows: Place a hot water bottle, filled with warm water (not hot,) into a small box of any kind. Line it with clean, terry cloth towels and place the bottle UNDER the towels. A small plastic container or a leak-proof plastic bag can be used if necessary. Make a small space within the nest and put the babies within the temporary warming nest.





Be sure the babies are not in direct contact with the warm water (it may become too hot for them.) Be sure that the towels do not have holes in them and are not frayed, because the fine threads could cut their delicate skin and holes could strangle them should they squirm through one.





In the meantime, prepare a proper box and nest for the mother, so she will feel secure when the babies are returned to her. Get a cardboard box, or make a wooden one, which is just slightly larger than the mother rabbit. It should not be too big, or the babies may scatter again and miss that important feeding.





A doorway should be cut in the center of one side, which is just large enough for the mother to fit through. The doorway should have a lip of about one-inch above the floor to help keep the babies in the box (until they are old enough to venture out on their own.)





Place a large handful of straw, grass or hay in the box and place it in a corner of the rabbit cage. Be sure it is not in the corner that she uses as a bathroom! Make sure that grass clippings do not contain any pesticides or fertilizers. Do not use fabric scraps, burlap, gauze or anything else with fine threads or holes in it. The straw/hay should be removed and replaced every three or four days as it may become soaked in urine. This is done by taking the babies out of the box, removing and later replacing most of the clean fur, and changing the rest of the bedding and lining the box with clean bedding.





The babies can be placed into the new nest as soon as their body temperature feels warm to the touch. (ONLY warm the babies if they have been scattered about on the cage floor. If they were huddled together in a good nest site, leave them alone, except to check whether they have been fed.).





Place the mother and the babies in a small, warm, quiet room. Give the mother a litterbox, in the opposite corner of the nest, if she's placed indoors. If she is not used to being in the house, this may stress her more than being left in her outdoor cage. The only thing to do in that case is add a proper nest area.





Baby Rabbits in nest at 16 days old.


Are They Getting Fed?


A well-fed baby will have a very distended tummy, looking like the ';Pillsbury Dough Boy.'; If the babies' tummies are full, the mother is feeding them and the caretaker can rest assured. The babies can be examined every day if that will make the caretaker feel more assured.





If the babies have not been fed, they will have sunken tummies, their skin will be wrinkled from dehydration and they will be weak (their response to being handled will be weak or non-existent, although they will hopefully be breathing.) Scattered babies are more likely not to have been fed, so make sure that they are warm first.





If the babies are weak or dehydrated, veterinary intervention is advised. Placing a drop of honey or fruit jam into their mouths sometimes helps elevate their blood sugar level until veterinary help and/or mother's milk is available.





At this point, examine the mother for signs of lactation. By gently holding the mother upright, or gently turning her upside down in a lap, the nipples can be examined. They should feel slightly swollen and it is likely that the mother pulled a great deal of fur from her chest and stomach to not only make her nest, but also to better expose the teats for the babies.





Slight pressure in a milking motion should release either small amount of milk or clear fluid. If the mother is lactating, return her to the babies and allow her to calm down and become familiar with her new nest. Examine the babies the next day to make sure that they are being fed.





If the mother is definitely not lactating or has not attempted to pull fur or make a nest, etc., take the mother to a qualified rabbit-experienced veterinarian immediately. The veterinarian will probably give the mother a small dose of oxytocin, a drug that will stimulate the milk glands. She should nurse within the next 24 hours.





If you feel it is necessary to examine the babies every day to verify that they have been fed, pet the mother rabbit first, to help cover human scents, and avoid wearing heavy perfumes when handling the babies. It is best to handle the babies as little as possible until they are old enough to leave the nest box on their own.





If your concerns begin on the day of the birth, wait a day before attempting to do anything. Some mother rabbits do not feed their babies until the evening of the first day or early on the second day.





If it has been close to two days and you are positive that the babies have not been fed, a veterinarian must be seen immediately. Oxytocin will not produce results if you wait more than forty-eight hours after the birth.





While waiting for a veterinary appointment, try allowing the babies to nurse, as suckling sometimes stimulates the milk glands. If that happens, monitoring the babies' growth is the only thing that needs to be done. Mother rabbits stand upright while nursing and the babies lie upside down beneath her. Hold the rabbits in this natural position.





Are The Babies in Danger?


If you think that the mother is injuring the babies while kindling (giving birth,) while feeding, or has ';cannibalized'; any of the babies (eaten them,) several issues should be explored. Sometimes a mother rabbit will accidentally injure the kits because her nails have never been clipped, the nest box is not proper, or she is stressed and skittish by too much activity around her. It is possible, if she is housed outdoors, that neighborhood predators, such as feral cats, raccoons or fox, are causing her anxiety at night. Some rabbits are highly skittish (';fractious';) by nature.





Very young mothers, especially those under six months of age, may not ';understand'; what has happened to them and veterinary intervention is imperative. Nervous and young mothers sometimes abandon their nestlings for unknown reasons, which may include having produced unhealthy kits. Sometimes the nutritional status of the mother is highly inadequate.





If the mother seems to be cannibalizing the nestlings, nutritional deficiencies are but one of the possible scenarios. It is normal for these vegetarian animals to eat the afterbirth, as it is for most other mammals. It prevents predators from discovering the nest and provides the mother which some much-needed nutrients. Sometimes people confuse this behavior (if it is witnessed) with cannibalism.





Sadly, if the father of the babies is much larger than the female, she could be inadvertently injuring the kits, which are too large for her birth canal, while attempting to free them. Seek immediate veterinary intervention should this be happening. The mother's life is in danger, as well as the lives of the babies.





If the mother rabbit has died, cannot or is not feeding the babies, you can attempt to hand feeding them. Bottle-feeding infant rabbits usually culminates in the babies' death within a few days to weeks. Hand feeding is terribly unsuccessful because there is no milk replacement formula that is 100% adapted for infant rabbits. This is also true for native species, such as cottontails. The physiological reasons are complex, and you should have the following information concerning what you will be facing when trying to hand-raise infant bunnies.
well that might be a good sugestion


also because some bunnies are canables


i know its gross so it might be good to watch


the mother while she is feeding them
The babies should not be separated from the mother at all until they are weaned. I raised and showed rabbits for over 10 years and never separated a mother from her litter. Generally, they feed them at night and stay out of the box most of the daytime. They will wean around 3 weeks and be ready to be on their own at 4 weeks.

I am afraid of the dentist. Any advice as to how to deal with this?

I had a root canal four years ago. Ever since then I have been fearful to return (as I have to have wisdom teeth removed)to the dentist. Any advice?I am afraid of the dentist. Any advice as to how to deal with this?
Ok, you are my soulmate lol. Just kidding. I had to have a root canal when i was about 16 and it sucked ***. The dentist that did it doesnt believe in novacaine and so just stabbed me with the needle to numb the area without putting the topical on and letting it work








I promised myself i would never go back to a dentist. Well then my parents changed insurances and we went to their new dentist. I was scared shitless.


And the root canal had to be finished. I can honestly say that i dont mind going to the dentist from that visit on. and i have had all four of my wisdom teeth pulled by the same guy and while i was wide awake. The only time i felt pain of course was when the number wore off. It was great. And now they have this topical version of the hypodermic novacaine. Basically, same numbness, no shot. Its frickin great!!!!!








So anyway my suggestion to you is to try to find a dentist that is sensitive to your situation. I dont know where you live, but you could call 1-800-dental if your in california, even southern cali i think. And if you are in southern cali, I go to this dentist at Hospitality Dental in San Bernardino. I promise that most of the time i am looking forward to my dental appointments. If you are not in california you can maybe look in your phone book and find a dentist that actually advertises special treatment for special situations.








Best of luck to you and i really hope you can find something tolerable.I am afraid of the dentist. Any advice as to how to deal with this?
dont be scared its nothing.i was in a accident and i had to remove my 6 front teeth and its not that bad a piece of cake good luck
Your not the only one. I had my bad experiences as well My advice to you is to just stay calm. Their only here to help you. Just get it on over with. Don't you know having a tooth in your mouth that needs to come out can cause major problems along with that tooth ache. It's really not that bad. It all depends on the dentist who does it. Some detists are rougher than others. You will be ok! Also they have dentist for cowards, like myself, listed in the yellow pages. That may help!
Get a dentist who understands this and gives you laughing gas before he starts to look at and clean your teeth, although that does come with certian risks, at least you'll be out for the procedure.


I absolutely hate the dentist, I am terrified of her! But my insurance doesn't cover the laughing gas when I'm only just afraid of mine. It's awful that I have the typical british set of teeth, with tons of problems, cavities etcetc, but I just get through it by shaking to myself and politely telling the dentist to not bother talking to me and go as fast and as accurately as humanly possible.





Oh! Or you could bring a CD player or iPod or some such to keep your mind off whats going on if that kind of thing works for you.
You need to keep in mind the dentist is working for your health.





The other side is, if you avoid required dental work, you will be seeing a PERIODONTIST instead when your teeth start falling out, your gums receed, and your gums get diseased. I've had 6 gum surgeries. Trust me, dental work is easier.

I need advice on how to lose the weight from having a baby!?

diet and exercise always wins the day. Congratulations on the baby I am sure he is keeping you busy and fit
i know a diet kit or program or whatever you call it... i just ordered one today. i heard from my friend because she used it after she had her daughter. it's called ';reset'; ... it's a 5 day program thing... the set comes with shakes and those bars or whatever. still not sure but my friend used it and she lost about 6 pounds the first week. maybe you can read about it at http://livehappy.usana.com cuz that's where i ordered it from. it's under the category macro optimizers i think.
Eat healthy exercise but with a personal trainer or all else fails surgery but that would be a last resort. Feel good about yourself put bikini on anyway and strut your stuff!
When reaching up above your head, every time, make sure your tummy muscles are tightened. And while standing at the sink or anywhere, remember to hold them in, hold for five seconds or so, then release. Do this for several repeats. Your tummy muscles have stretched out, just like your skin has. These ';exercises'; have worked for me. Now, I just have the proud-mama belly, but it's smaller than it was!

In October 1990 I cracked a coconut, removing the bottom and scraping all the meat from inside. Keeping 2/3 of the coconut, the portion with the point, then drilled small holes forming the shape of


a mouth, one hole for the nose, two holes for the eyes. My young daughter then colored the whole coconut using magic marker.


Green for the point on its head, orange for the rest, and white for the spacings between the holes that formed the mouth, so it looks like teeth.


I then wrote the date inside, with a ball point pen. It has maintained its color perfectly, looks like it was made yesterday.
you can go online for free stencils and go to %26lt;buypumpkinteeth.com%26gt; they have cool teeth that you stick into pumpkins!And try carving a Watermelon,Leave a little red so you can see threw your carved eyes and mouth.With the green striped outside red inside and white fangs its awsome and the pumpkins last longer because ussaly the teeth start to decay first being smaller
Here are some sites where u can print patterns to cut by.


As far as keeping it from rotting, i dont know. i would just wait a few weeks to cut it. once u cut it, u expose it to air and it rots quickly.

I need advice on how to begin a wholesome diet for my family?

hi i was wondering how to begin a diet of more wholesome foods for my children. i know this sounds bad but i do not know where to begin. we eat too much processed food and I am looking for more natural foods to offer. any web sites or ideas? thanksI need advice on how to begin a wholesome diet for my family?
Nature's Promise has a lot of good foods that aren't too expensive. Also Kashi has amazing food, they have crackers and granola bars made from really good ingredients. Also, get a lot of fruit- a variety, like grapes, strawberries, bananas, pears, raisins. And yogurt is really good too, I personally like Stonyfield because they're all natural yet still taste great. All kinds of beans are good, as well as cereals with a lot of fiber. Oh and carrots with a little bit of a low-fat dressing. And organic fig newtons.


Don't cut out all fat though, it's important for satiety factor and for hormonal functions.


Sorry I recently tried this too and I've felt so much better, it's amazing how many good foods are out there when you really look.


Really, anything is fine in moderation.

I NEED ADVICE ON HOW TO GET GIRLS TO LIKE ME?

hey im a very shy guy and i really want to know how to start taking to girls and thing, can you help?I NEED ADVICE ON HOW TO GET GIRLS TO LIKE ME?
Hey





There are many ways that can help you to get girls but one of the things that can help you the most is to learn how to impress a girl with your fashion sense...





One thing you should know about women is that they are very observant. As a matter of fact , women are far more observant than us. They notice things... things that you and I might never be aware of.





Your shoes, for example. Women will often look at a man's shoes and make a judgment. If you're wearing a pair of beat-up running shoes, for example, she will think, ';wow, that guy really doesn't take care of himself';. That's not a good way to impress this woman!





That's the difference between us and them... when was the last time you judged a woman based on what kind of shoes she was wearing? You probably didn't even take the time to look at her shoes! If you and me are the same, you were far more focused on her legs than on her shoes...





Because women are so observant, you need to do more than just dress nicely to impress her... you need to be consistent with your fashion choices.





That means that not only do you need to wear a decent pair of shoes, the rest of your outfit needs to match the shoes.





You also need to be consistent from one day to the next. You can't wear a pair of expensive Italian dress shoes one day and a crappy pair of flip-flops the next day (believe me, she'll definitely notice that!).





There are two components to fashion consistency:





1) You need to be consistent within a single outfit;


2) You need to be consistent from day-to-day.





To retain consistency within a single outfit, you need to have all the pieces of your outfit match together. That doesn't just mean that the colors need to match... it means that everything you're wearing needs to fit within the same style.





To give you an example, an inconsistent outfit might consist of a bright yellow t-shirt, a pair of black dress pants, and a pair of running shoes. Brutal! This might sound apparent, but I see men committing this fashion error all the time!





Secondly, and equally importantly, you need to dress consistently from one day to the next. This is especially important if you see and interact with the same people every day.





Remember, most of the women are incredibly observant! They will remember what you wore yesterday. If it's a total mismatch with your outfit today, then they'll notice and immediately tell to their friends, ';wow, that guy has no idea what he's doing when it comes to fashion!';





There's a lot more to fashion than just buying precious clothes. If you want to look good, you need to know what you are doing!





I learned this fashion tips in a new program online that helped me a lot and helped many others from all over the world. This new system will show you ';How To Transform Your Appearance and Skyrocket Your Sex Appeal In 14 Days Or Less';. It called The Handsome Factor and here is the website:

You Just Have To Suck It Up And Talk To Them. Maybe Ask For Their Number To Make It Easier. It's Always Easier To Start Talking With Girls Over The Phone Or Texting, You Know What I Mean? You Just Have To Believe In Yourself. It's Easier Than You Think.

hmmmmmm .... well first just like go near a crowd of girls with some of your friends at let them start talkin and then you will feel comfortable and not shy .. and you will start to talk .. just go with the flow i guess
jsut be yourself(: and try to talk to girls. break out of your comfort zone. also try being friends with some girls first and see where it takes you. good luck!
compliment the girl. say she is pretty and smile looking in her eyes and just walk away. let her chase you. dnt prey on her.
hang out with guys who have girlfriends. maybe one of the girls could hook you up with a friend of theirs.
just be yourself...'cept a little more outgoing. give yourself a pep talk.
Do what the coolest kid in school is doing, but better.
Be your own boss. Do not make yourself get out their and talk to them. Wait for them to come talk to you.
get a cool haircut and work out. Then ask a girl out.
be urself.! dont be weird,
Be likeable, Do what kids that have girlfriends or have girls

Someone please give me advice how to get rid of the horrible scars I have on my legs from mosquitoe bites?

Last summer we had a bad out break of mosquitoes by my house. my legs suffered the worst because I'm allergic my skin is extremely sensitive and no matter what i tried to do not to scratch them it didn't work. I tried all of the repellents and it seemed to make them worse. I tried anti itching creme, benadryll pills, and the stuff you put on kids to keep them from itching i can't remember the name but it didn't work.


Now I have ugly scarred legs and i'm embarrased to where shorts so i just wear capris. and it's getting really hot here and i would love to wear shorts.


anyone have any suggestions as to how to reduce the scarsSomeone please give me advice how to get rid of the horrible scars I have on my legs from mosquitoe bites?
I notice that the best way to get rid of my scars is to get a good tan! I know it sounds silly, but it really works. The scars are almost invisible due to the tan and then in the winter they come back lighter every year. So, go lay out by the pool and if anyone asks, just say its for your health!! ;)Someone please give me advice how to get rid of the horrible scars I have on my legs from mosquitoe bites?
Getting a tan makes them pop out more. i tried it. i have the same exact problem! everyone tells me to use coco butter and they will go away

Report Abuse

Plain and simple butter from the fridge will work. It will take several weeks of having butter on your skin. I grew up in northern Minnesota and that's what my grammy did for me.
There are creams in the pharmacy in the aisle with bandages and first aid. There are different kinds but basically they will say for the treatment of scars. Some of them come in bandage form. Try treating your legs. I would suggest a mild self tanning cream, but you may end up scratching that depending on what's in it. Just know that all of us have a scar or something somewhere that we are embarrassed of.
Get MiraCell!!!!!! It completely dissolves scar tissue; It's all natural, and reasonably priced. It has done some amazing things, I've seen. You need to check this out!! You'll love it!!!


Link below to see what MiraCell does, but you can order it through them or buy it at any drug store. Its 10.00 for a 1/2 oz. bottle, but it lasts forever!!!! Good Luck girl

If the babies have not been fed, they will have sunken tummies, their skin will be wrinkled from dehydration and they will be weak (their response to being handled will be weak or non-existent, although they will hopefully be breathing.) Scattered babies are more likely not to have been fed, so make sure that they are warm first.





If the babies are weak or dehydrated, veterinary intervention is advised. Placing a drop of honey or fruit jam into their mouths sometimes helps elevate their blood sugar level until veterinary help and/or mother's milk is available.





At this point, examine the mother for signs of lactation. By gently holding the mother upright, or gently turning her upside down in a lap, the nipples can be examined. They should feel slightly swollen and it is likely that the mother pulled a great deal of fur from her chest and stomach to not only make her nest, but also to better expose the teats for the babies.





Slight pressure in a milking motion should release either small amount of milk or clear fluid. If the mother is lactating, return her to the babies and allow her to calm down and become familiar with her new nest. Examine the babies the next day to make sure that they are being fed.





If the mother is definitely not lactating or has not attempted to pull fur or make a nest, etc., take the mother to a qualified rabbit-experienced veterinarian immediately. The veterinarian will probably give the mother a small dose of oxytocin, a drug that will stimulate the milk glands. She should nurse within the next 24 hours.





If you feel it is necessary to examine the babies every day to verify that they have been fed, pet the mother rabbit first, to help cover human scents, and avoid wearing heavy perfumes when handling the babies. It is best to handle the babies as little as possible until they are old enough to leave the nest box on their own.





If your concerns begin on the day of the birth, wait a day before attempting to do anything. Some mother rabbits do not feed their babies until the evening of the first day or early on the second day.





If it has been close to two days and you are positive that the babies have not been fed, a veterinarian must be seen immediately. Oxytocin will not produce results if you wait more than forty-eight hours after the birth.





While waiting for a veterinary appointment, try allowing the babies to nurse, as suckling sometimes stimulates the milk glands. If that happens, monitoring the babies' growth is the only thing that needs to be done. Mother rabbits stand upright while nursing and the babies lie upside down beneath her. Hold the rabbits in this natural position.





Are The Babies in Danger?


If you think that the mother is injuring the babies while kindling (giving birth,) while feeding, or has ';cannibalized'; any of the babies (eaten them,) several issues should be explored. Sometimes a mother rabbit will accidentally injure the kits because her nails have never been clipped, the nest box is not proper, or she is stressed and skittish by too much activity around her. It is possible, if she is housed outdoors, that neighborhood predators, such as feral cats, raccoons or fox, are causing her anxiety at night. Some rabbits are highly skittish (';fractious';) by nature.





Very young mothers, especially those under six months of age, may not ';understand'; what has happened to them and veterinary intervention is imperative. Nervous and young mothers sometimes abandon their nestlings for unknown reasons, which may include having produced unhealthy kits. Sometimes the nutritional status of the mother is highly inadequate.





If the mother seems to be cannibalizing the nestlings, nutritional deficiencies are but one of the possible scenarios. It is normal for these vegetarian animals to eat the afterbirth, as it is for most other mammals. It prevents predators from discovering the nest and provides the mother which some much-needed nutrients. Sometimes people confuse this behavior (if it is witnessed) with cannibalism.





Sadly, if the father of the babies is much larger than the female, she could be inadvertently injuring the kits, which are too large for her birth canal, while attempting to free them. Seek immediate veterinary intervention should this be happening. The mother's life is in danger, as well as the lives of the babies.





If the mother rabbit has died, cannot or is not feeding the babies, you can attempt to hand feeding them. Bottle-feeding infant rabbits usually culminates in the babies' death within a few days to weeks. Hand feeding is terribly unsuccessful because there is no milk replacement formula that is 100% adapted for infant rabbits. This is also true for native species, such as cottontails. The physiological reasons are complex, and you should have the following information concerning what you will be facing when trying to hand-raise infant bunnies.
well that might be a good sugestion


also because some bunnies are canables


i know its gross so it might be good to watch


the mother while she is feeding them
The babies should not be separated from the mother at all until they are weaned. I raised and showed rabbits for over 10 years and never separated a mother from her litter. Generally, they feed them at night and stay out of the box most of the daytime. They will wean around 3 weeks and be ready to be on their own at 4 weeks.

I am afraid of the dentist. Any advice as to how to deal with this?

I had a root canal four years ago. Ever since then I have been fearful to return (as I have to have wisdom teeth removed)to the dentist. Any advice?I am afraid of the dentist. Any advice as to how to deal with this?
Ok, you are my soulmate lol. Just kidding. I had to have a root canal when i was about 16 and it sucked ***. The dentist that did it doesnt believe in novacaine and so just stabbed me with the needle to numb the area without putting the topical on and letting it work








I promised myself i would never go back to a dentist. Well then my parents changed insurances and we went to their new dentist. I was scared shitless.


And the root canal had to be finished. I can honestly say that i dont mind going to the dentist from that visit on. and i have had all four of my wisdom teeth pulled by the same guy and while i was wide awake. The only time i felt pain of course was when the number wore off. It was great. And now they have this topical version of the hypodermic novacaine. Basically, same numbness, no shot. Its frickin great!!!!!








So anyway my suggestion to you is to try to find a dentist that is sensitive to your situation. I dont know where you live, but you could call 1-800-dental if your in california, even southern cali i think. And if you are in southern cali, I go to this dentist at Hospitality Dental in San Bernardino. I promise that most of the time i am looking forward to my dental appointments. If you are not in california you can maybe look in your phone book and find a dentist that actually advertises special treatment for special situations.








Best of luck to you and i really hope you can find something tolerable.I am afraid of the dentist. Any advice as to how to deal with this?
dont be scared its nothing.i was in a accident and i had to remove my 6 front teeth and its not that bad a piece of cake good luck
Your not the only one. I had my bad experiences as well My advice to you is to just stay calm. Their only here to help you. Just get it on over with. Don't you know having a tooth in your mouth that needs to come out can cause major problems along with that tooth ache. It's really not that bad. It all depends on the dentist who does it. Some detists are rougher than others. You will be ok! Also they have dentist for cowards, like myself, listed in the yellow pages. That may help!
Get a dentist who understands this and gives you laughing gas before he starts to look at and clean your teeth, although that does come with certian risks, at least you'll be out for the procedure.


I absolutely hate the dentist, I am terrified of her! But my insurance doesn't cover the laughing gas when I'm only just afraid of mine. It's awful that I have the typical british set of teeth, with tons of problems, cavities etcetc, but I just get through it by shaking to myself and politely telling the dentist to not bother talking to me and go as fast and as accurately as humanly possible.





Oh! Or you could bring a CD player or iPod or some such to keep your mind off whats going on if that kind of thing works for you.
You need to keep in mind the dentist is working for your health.





The other side is, if you avoid required dental work, you will be seeing a PERIODONTIST instead when your teeth start falling out, your gums receed, and your gums get diseased. I've had 6 gum surgeries. Trust me, dental work is easier.

I need advice on how to lose the weight from having a baby!?

I had my son a year ago and now that it's summer time I want to look good in a bathing suit again. Does anyone know some great thigh and tummy exercises or any other ways to lose the weight? I have a treadmill but have heard that walking/running doesn't always work for the baby fat. Any help would be appriciated. Thank you!I need advice on how to lose the weight from having a baby!?
try pilates. it worked very well for me. running will help some but tae-bo and pilates are probally going to be better and you will get faster results.I need advice on how to lose the weight from having a baby!?
diet and exercise always wins the day. Congratulations on the baby I am sure he is keeping you busy and fit
i know a diet kit or program or whatever you call it... i just ordered one today. i heard from my friend because she used it after she had her daughter. it's called ';reset'; ... it's a 5 day program thing... the set comes with shakes and those bars or whatever. still not sure but my friend used it and she lost about 6 pounds the first week. maybe you can read about it at http://livehappy.usana.com cuz that's where i ordered it from. it's under the category macro optimizers i think.
Eat healthy exercise but with a personal trainer or all else fails surgery but that would be a last resort. Feel good about yourself put bikini on anyway and strut your stuff!
When reaching up above your head, every time, make sure your tummy muscles are tightened. And while standing at the sink or anywhere, remember to hold them in, hold for five seconds or so, then release. Do this for several repeats. Your tummy muscles have stretched out, just like your skin has. These ';exercises'; have worked for me. Now, I just have the proud-mama belly, but it's smaller than it was!

I need advice on how to begin a wholesome diet for my family?

hi i was wondering how to begin a diet of more wholesome foods for my children. i know this sounds bad but i do not know where to begin. we eat too much processed food and I am looking for more natural foods to offer. any web sites or ideas? thanksI need advice on how to begin a wholesome diet for my family?
Nature's Promise has a lot of good foods that aren't too expensive. Also Kashi has amazing food, they have crackers and granola bars made from really good ingredients. Also, get a lot of fruit- a variety, like grapes, strawberries, bananas, pears, raisins. And yogurt is really good too, I personally like Stonyfield because they're all natural yet still taste great. All kinds of beans are good, as well as cereals with a lot of fiber. Oh and carrots with a little bit of a low-fat dressing. And organic fig newtons.


Don't cut out all fat though, it's important for satiety factor and for hormonal functions.


Sorry I recently tried this too and I've felt so much better, it's amazing how many good foods are out there when you really look.


Really, anything is fine in moderation.

Any good advice in how to make the perfect jack o' lantern?

* besides facesAny good advice in how to make the perfect jack o' lantern?
Wal-Mart and other stores have pumpkin carving booklets. They come with designs you tape on the pumpkin, then punch holes around the design, then cut it out. It also comes with the tools. A pumpkin will only last maybe two weeks at the most. So, wait until maybe a week or so before Halloween.Any good advice in how to make the perfect jack o' lantern?
In October 1990 I cracked a coconut, removing the bottom and scraping all the meat from inside. Keeping 2/3 of the coconut, the portion with the point, then drilled small holes forming the shape of


a mouth, one hole for the nose, two holes for the eyes. My young daughter then colored the whole coconut using magic marker.


Green for the point on its head, orange for the rest, and white for the spacings between the holes that formed the mouth, so it looks like teeth.


I then wrote the date inside, with a ball point pen. It has maintained its color perfectly, looks like it was made yesterday.
you can go online for free stencils and go to %26lt;buypumpkinteeth.com%26gt; they have cool teeth that you stick into pumpkins!And try carving a Watermelon,Leave a little red so you can see threw your carved eyes and mouth.With the green striped outside red inside and white fangs its awsome and the pumpkins last longer because ussaly the teeth start to decay first being smaller
Here are some sites where u can print patterns to cut by.


As far as keeping it from rotting, i dont know. i would just wait a few weeks to cut it. once u cut it, u expose it to air and it rots quickly.


One tip tho, dont use a steak knife bc the pumkin is slippery and u can injure urself.... especially dont injure urself after locking urself out of ur house.... bad idea.

I NEED ADVICE ON HOW TO GET GIRLS TO LIKE ME?

hey im a very shy guy and i really want to know how to start taking to girls and thing, can you help?I NEED ADVICE ON HOW TO GET GIRLS TO LIKE ME?
Hey





There are many ways that can help you to get girls but one of the things that can help you the most is to learn how to impress a girl with your fashion sense...





One thing you should know about women is that they are very observant. As a matter of fact , women are far more observant than us. They notice things... things that you and I might never be aware of.





Your shoes, for example. Women will often look at a man's shoes and make a judgment. If you're wearing a pair of beat-up running shoes, for example, she will think, ';wow, that guy really doesn't take care of himself';. That's not a good way to impress this woman!





That's the difference between us and them... when was the last time you judged a woman based on what kind of shoes she was wearing? You probably didn't even take the time to look at her shoes! If you and me are the same, you were far more focused on her legs than on her shoes...





Because women are so observant, you need to do more than just dress nicely to impress her... you need to be consistent with your fashion choices.





That means that not only do you need to wear a decent pair of shoes, the rest of your outfit needs to match the shoes.





You also need to be consistent from one day to the next. You can't wear a pair of expensive Italian dress shoes one day and a crappy pair of flip-flops the next day (believe me, she'll definitely notice that!).





There are two components to fashion consistency:





1) You need to be consistent within a single outfit;


2) You need to be consistent from day-to-day.





To retain consistency within a single outfit, you need to have all the pieces of your outfit match together. That doesn't just mean that the colors need to match... it means that everything you're wearing needs to fit within the same style.





To give you an example, an inconsistent outfit might consist of a bright yellow t-shirt, a pair of black dress pants, and a pair of running shoes. Brutal! This might sound apparent, but I see men committing this fashion error all the time!





Secondly, and equally importantly, you need to dress consistently from one day to the next. This is especially important if you see and interact with the same people every day.





Remember, most of the women are incredibly observant! They will remember what you wore yesterday. If it's a total mismatch with your outfit today, then they'll notice and immediately tell to their friends, ';wow, that guy has no idea what he's doing when it comes to fashion!';





There's a lot more to fashion than just buying precious clothes. If you want to look good, you need to know what you are doing!





I learned this fashion tips in a new program online that helped me a lot and helped many others from all over the world. This new system will show you ';How To Transform Your Appearance and Skyrocket Your Sex Appeal In 14 Days Or Less';. It called The Handsome Factor and here is the website:

You Just Have To Suck It Up And Talk To Them. Maybe Ask For Their Number To Make It Easier. It's Always Easier To Start Talking With Girls Over The Phone Or Texting, You Know What I Mean? You Just Have To Believe In Yourself. It's Easier Than You Think.
dude just be ur self.... trust me being shy is how everyone is at first...just man up and talk to a girl u find interesting..just be urself and it will all fall in place.. the worst thing to do is to act like someone u arent...just be urself...have fun getting all there numbers ;D
hmmmmmm .... well first just like go near a crowd of girls with some of your friends at let them start talkin and then you will feel comfortable and not shy .. and you will start to talk .. just go with the flow i guess
jsut be yourself(: and try to talk to girls. break out of your comfort zone. also try being friends with some girls first and see where it takes you. good luck!
compliment the girl. say she is pretty and smile looking in her eyes and just walk away. let her chase you. dnt prey on her.
hang out with guys who have girlfriends. maybe one of the girls could hook you up with a friend of theirs.
just be yourself...'cept a little more outgoing. give yourself a pep talk.
Do what the coolest kid in school is doing, but better.
Be your own boss. Do not make yourself get out their and talk to them. Wait for them to come talk to you.
get a cool haircut and work out. Then ask a girl out.
be urself.! dont be weird,
Be likeable, Do what kids that have girlfriends or have girls

Need some advice on how to play sweeper?

its my first year playing organized soccer, but im not a bad player because i grew up playing street soccer and the likes. anyways, my coach has me playing sweeper right now. im not really comfortable there, as i prefer playing midfield but hey its where he put me. anyways i havea game tomorrow and i just want some tips on what i should focus on during the game.Need some advice on how to play sweeper?
I played starting sweeper all last year on varsity. That was my junior year. My best advice would be to ALWAYS sit back and react to a situation that comes up, as in you should always be scanning the field for possibilities of where the other team can get through. A sweeper reacts to where the defense fails and the opponent gets through. Try to plan ahead when you see this happen as you can possibly stop the opponent as soon as he gets through. This will also happen if you see the opponent is going to try a through pass and you can occupy that spot before the ball gets to the receiver. That was my strategy and I did pretty well there.Need some advice on how to play sweeper?
you need to command the defence, tell them who to mark when they need to and make sure you push up the line when you're attacking. hang back a little but dont give the other team too much room: try to catch them offside. make sure you're never left having to mark someone, bring back a midfielder to mark for you if you need it. make sure you clear all loose balls without unnecessary dribbling as you are the last line before the keeper. good luck and if in doubt just defend as your instincts tell you!
Anticipate!!!!


Guess where the ball is gonna go, stay back a little, and scan the field.


Dont be afraid to yell at your teammates!!!


Also practice on offside trapping.


Once you get good at that you can really get under your opponents skin.


Hmm, you shouldnt be marking anyone unless its a corner kick(free kick), thats a defenders job.


But I have to say anticipation is the biggest.
don't go too far forward.


stay with the central defenders until the ball is coming towards you, then stay a few feet closer to your goal than they are.


let your central defenders take care of high balls and you stand back in case the ball gets through.


listen to your goalkeeper more than you normally would.


if you're too close/too far from your goal, the keeper should tell you.


don't take many touches.


it doesn't matter where you kick the ball as long as it's far away from your goal.

Any advice on how to get over extreme guilt?

Had a knot in my stomach for a few days now, feeling nauseous. Was debating whether to adopt a 6 yr old adult tom cat from the SPCA. Felt sorry for him, so I adopted him. Once he was home I noticed his urine was extremely potent and smelly, which ';should'; go away in a couple of weeks. Brought him out a couple times he would scratch our furniture. Our existing cat was acting scared and not purring like her normal self. I felt guilty for my existing cat, felt guilty for adopting the tom cat and not wanting him anymore because he is a great cat. I took him back to the SPCA yesterday after having him for a couple days and feel horrible. Realized I was a ';one'; cat person, I can't handle two. I didn't feel the same towards the tom cat like I did my existing one, I felt a little bitter towards him for smelling up my house and making my current cat act different. How can I get over this guilt of sending him back. Adopting him and sending him back was one of the hardest choices I've had to makeAny advice on how to get over extreme guilt?
One should not feel guilty when they have committed no transgressions. Guilt is relieved by forgiveness and atonement. You have nothing to atone for. You have not harmed the cat. You have not harmed the SPCA. You did your best and the situation did not work out. Be that as it may, make a donation to the SPCA and send them a letter thanking them for their understanding. Then move on.Any advice on how to get over extreme guilt?
The very best thing for you to do is to pray and ask God for forgiveness. He knows that you really did want to help the new cat; while at the same time...you didn't want to create a difficult situation for your existing cat. If you had not already had a cat at home, it might have worked out. You could also call the SPCA and see if the other cat is still there; if it is...you could go check on him and make sure he's alright.
Hey at least you have a conscience. You sound like you have a good heart, which is more than can be said for a lot of people. I think you did the right thing for both of you.
All pets like people are not compatible to everyone. That behavior was what placed him/her outside the home in the first place. Too bad you dis try meds but this cat needs special 24/7 attention I think.


Some animals need someone home with them.
Tell yourself the truth, over and over. The truth being, you tried, you did your best, and that cat will be happier living somewhere else in a one cat household. You, your cat and that cat will all do better because of the wise choice you made. Congratulate yourself, you did something hard, but it was the right thing to do! : )
Remind yourself that this cat was just not fit for YOU! He tore up your furniture (which is not cheap) and he Pee'd your house up with Liquid Sulfur...It's not worth trying to be a good Samaritan if you can't see because your eyes are burning. Chock it up as a mistake and love the cat you have correctly.
