As one of the most popular beverages in the world, almost everyone is familiar with coffee, but not many people realize the amount of time and work required to produce it.
While normally referred to as a tree, the coffee plant is actually a variety of evergreen shrub. These trees can grow to a height of up to thirty feet, but are typically pruned to be ten feet or less in order to make it easier to harvest the beans.
Coffee plants generally require skilled cultivation, as they can be extremely susceptible to pest and frost. They grow best in altitudes above 1,000 feet, in areas where frost is unlikely. Coffee plantations will often be made up of thousands of trees, and the trees do not reach full maturity until they are about six years old. While they can live for around sixty years, they generally only produce substantial amounts of coffee for around ten years. Each tree will yield, on average, one pound of roasted coffee per year.
Once the berries on the coffee trees are ripe, they turn a bright red color. The recommended method for harvesting is to pick them by hand, thus ensuring only the ripe ones are chosen. A tree can have both ripe and unripe fruit at the same time, so handpicking is normally the method employed by coffee growers.
Coffee plants can be grown indoors as well, and some people make a hobby of growing their own coffee tree from a seed, and then harvesting the ripe beans.
Are you always conscious of your figure? Do you feel that being fat is less attractive? Are there men that like fat women?
There are many men who prefer fat women than the skinny ones. Men that like fat women have their own reasons for liking someone who is not skinny or slim. Sometimes body figure is not important on some men, which is why many men still fall for curvaceous women. Below are some reasons why men prefer women on the plus size.
• Men don't like skinny women because they look like androids and are always picking on their food during a date, or don't eat at all! They say that the way to a man's heart is through his stomach, so what fun is there when going out with a skinny woman who is constantly hungry because she is on the diet? Definitely no fun at all. Now if a man goes out on a date with a woman who loves to eat, then definitely they will have a good time because they are full and happy.
• Men that like fat women are those who are passionate. They want to hug and cuddle up with their partner. Who would want to hug someone who is all skin and bones? Men are afraid of causing injury to a skinny woman in times of heated passion. However curvaceous women who have been well fed can perform well during intimate moments. They have the energy to release their passion and please their men. Skinny women may be undernourished and lethargic and may fall asleep right away after sharing an intimate moment. They don't have the longevity that fat women have during passionate moments.
• Men that like fat women see beyond the physical attributes of a woman. Fat women are more funny and humorous than skinny women. They are sure of themselves, thus they are confident and can laugh at themselves. They are also very nurturing which most men find very appealing.
• Fat women who are secured of themselves aren't high maintenance. Meaning you don't have to always take her to a fancy restaurant or often buy her gifts. They are often contended with simpler things in life, and they value the company of someone they love more than anything else. Thus there is no need to go through extra lengths to please her.
• Fat women love deeply. Maybe due to years of being taunted and rejected made them search for true and sincere love, so once they find it, they give their all and hold on to it. They know the value of sincerity after years of disappointments and frustrations, so they give their love wholly and deeply.
Men that like fat women have many reasons for choosing them, but the important thing is that true love sees beyond the physical attributes of a person. So whatever your body size might be, be confident in it and believe that you deserve to be loved no matter how you tip at the weighing scale. Love yourself first and true love will come knocking at your door.
A corrupt registry is often the cause of poor computer performance. However, before you do some tweaks and fixes, it would be great if you are familiar with the different computer alert signs so you know what to do to speed up a computer running slow by yourself.
Knowing the basics of computer registry will give you an idea of how you can do this all by yourself and when you'll need to call professional help. This will also give you better understanding of how your computer works and what you can do to fix it.
The registry is your computer's database. It contains data that is important in configuring the overall settings of you operating system. It may not be observable but your computer's registry is an immense arrangement of files that makes your computer and its installed programs run properly. It also works to allocate memory for programs in use as well as locating data needed by any running program and any errors will result in your computer running slow.
Over time, you will undoubtedly remove and install new programs and hardware. However, removing these programs leaves incomplete files in the registry. As these pile up errors soon occur. These frequent changes will make your registry disorganized and after some time, errors will start appearing. Usually errors come in the form of incomplete or obsolete entries.
The result of all this is that windows is unable to run fast as it is constantly looking for software that is not there and will slow down as it tries to open pans that contain corrupt registry entries This considerably affects the whole performance of the computer and often manifests in its speed. It can also lead to your computer crashing on you. Often the computer will have a lag before it can actually access a program or the startup time will be prolonged as it constantly searches the registry for correct entries.
How can you fix this?
There are two ways to fix computer registry errors. The first method can be done only by tech experts as it needs to have an in-depth knowledge of computer software to manually change and delete registry settings.
The safest and most convenient method of fixing your computer's registry is by installing and running a system and registry cleaner. These programs are intended to scan and fix any windows and registry errors. It also takes necessary action to remove incomplete or corrupted registry entries which are fragments of previously removed programs.
Once installed, the software immediately scans for these issues then will repair them for you. If your computer is running slow a system and registry scanner will help fix these issues quickly without spending a lot of money on repair bills and you can have your computer running fast again in minutes.
The wars of today would be imaginable without the use of militaryaircraft. Of course, no country can go to war armed with only one type of aircraft. Every nation must invest in different kinds of aircraft ranging from fighter aircraft, bombers, and tankers to observation balloons. Each of the different kinds of planes has a separate role to play. And each of these roles is as essential as the next.
While looking at airplanes for defence purposes, one finds that many of the aircraft are multi-functional. For instance, the F-4 Phantom is not only a fighter-bomber. It is also used for the purpose of reconnaissance. It also plays the additional roles of CAS and ECM. Moreover, if such an aircraft seems to fall too expensive, there are several other military aircraft to bolster a nation's defences. For instance, the American F/A-18 Hornet is great as a fighter plane and also as a striker.
There are a few basic categories of military aircraft. These include fighter planes, ground attack aircraft, tankers, bombers, and trainers. Apart from this, aircraft are also used for transport, observation, and surveillance. Fighter aircraft are designed to attack. As a result, they are speedy and easily-manoeuvrable. In the modern world, air superiority is the factor that decides the fate of military conflicts. Thus, most nations invest in fighter planes because their ability to win wars is well-known.
However, fighter planes alone cannot win wars. Ultimately, it has to be a team effort. That is where ground attack aircraft such as the F-104 enters the picture. While the fighter aircraft spearhead the attack, ground attack aircraft strengthen the defense. These planes are also known as tactical fighters. They are put into action at the head of the battle and are armored to protect the pilot against the fire of small arms.
Other military aircraft include bombers, tankers, and trainers. Bombers, as the name suggests, are designed to drop bombs on ground targets. The A-10 Thunderbolt is an example of a bomber that attacks tactical targets. Tankers are used to refuel other aircraft when their fuel gets exhausted. There are also a number of aircraft known as trainers. These are used to teach pilots about flying, navigating, and aiming their weapons. In addition to these we have the aircraft that are used purely for transportation and those that are used to observe military activity on the ground level. Defence without aircraft is no longer an option.
Cats are natural bathers; they spend most of their time awake bathing themselves clean. Most cats are perfectly happy with this situation and do not like to change the natural order of things. So when a human suggest that a cat needs a bath watch out they will get offended easily. Every once in awhile, our feline
companion will need a little human help in this area to get a little bit cleaner.
This is where it may get a little complicated for the vast majority of us with feline pals. Cats have a tendency to resist the human assisted cat bath and will quickly become one of their least favorite interactions with you. They will communicate this with you in no uncertain terms very quickly. If you have tried to bath a cat in the past you know it is no easy task and you have the old battle wounds to prove it.
If the bathing dilemma ever comes up and you know your cat is much better off with a human assisted bathing it is a good idea to be fully prepared before you begin. This will help you and your feline friend find a much more common ground that will reduce stress. If at all possible maybe bring a friend along so one can hold the cat and the other can wash and rinse as needed.
Cat Bath Supplies
Have the following supplies ready before you start to bathe your cat:
1. A small baby bathtub or a large sink will be needed to bath your feline pal.
2. Soft wash cloth
3. Clean Dry Towel
4. Cat shampoo you can pick up at a local pet store that is specifically made for cats (please don’t use human shampoo this can harm your cat)
5. A large glass or jug filled with Luke warm water
With your supplies in hand and your umpire suit on to minimize any collateral damage you are ready to bath your cat. Here are the Nine Steps for the Perfect Cat Bath
When you are ready for the task, here are the steps you should take to give your cat a bath:
1. Fill the tub or wash basin with about 5 inches of luke warm water
2. Test the water to make sure it's warm, but not too warm.
3. Kind of like a bubble bath add a little of the cat shampoo in the tub
4. While holding your feline friend carefully place him firmly in the tub
5. Using the jug of warm water pour a little over your cat until wet 9 don’t get anything in the ears or eyes
6. Massage the soapy water into your cat's fur from the neck down to the tail.
7. Rinse the causing the same jug of warm water.
8. Wrap your cat in a large clean towel and gently rub her dry as much as you can.
9. Follow up with a kitty treat to let them know that the bath was a good thing.
While giving your cat a bath it is a good idea to talk to him/her it will let them know that your there. Make sure you keep a tight grip n your cat not to tight because you don’t want to hurt them just enough to let them know you’re ready for their escape.
Sometimes a hard disk drive becomes sluggish or stops working because it needs to be cleaned. However, cleaning a hard drive disk platter is a delicate operation. Be sure to prepare yourself with the proper cleaning tools and procedure in order to give yourself the best possible chance to improve your hard drive’s performance instead of damaging it.
Here, I would like to share with you some instructions and tips on how to clean the hard drive platters properly and safely.
The following instructions are very important when we are attempting to perform the clean work on drive’s platters. Step 1
Take your hard drive into a room that is as clean as possible to avoid dust that could damage the heads of the drive. Find a room with very little air movement if possible. Step 2
Put on your powder-free latex gloves, anti-static wrist strap, antistatic/cleanness clothing and mask. Then you are now ready to work on your drive without causing damage from powder, moisture or static electricity. Step 3
Use your Phillips-head screwdriver to unscrew any screws necessary to remove the drive from the CPU and the platter from the drive. Step 4
Open the drive and use a rubber air blow-away tool or blower to blow always the dust and particles in the platter. Or you can use the air can to remove the dust. Spray the air can to remove any dust and other foreign materials on the platter. Be sure to read the instructions flow on the air can in order to know how far to hold the can from the target when spraying. Pay attention; do not make any physical contact with the platters. Any fingerprint or physical scratch to the platters will be fatal to your data. Step 5
Reassemble your hard drive and properly store or dispose of your cleaning and assembly materials. Step 6
Try using your newly cleaned hard drive after you reinstall it. If it still is not performing to your satisfaction, try contacting a professional computer hardware maintenance service. Tips & Warnings
Try putting your hard drive on a table or desk so you can be seated while working on it. This could help you clean the drive with more accuracy and stability. Work in a well-lit area so you can get the best possible view of your hard drive and the dust or dirt on it.
If you don’t wear an anti-static wrist strap, then at least touch a metal object before working on your hard disk drive. Otherwise, you could damage sensitive parts of the drive with static electricity. Also, don’t use a cloth or chemicals to clean the hard drive platter because you could damage it.
Draw a vector using any of the drawing tools in Flash, say a small circle and convert it into a symbol (F8) by selecting the Graphic option and name the symbol say 'ball'.
Click the 20th frame in the Timeline and insert a frame (F5).
Now right-click the 20th frame in the Timeline and select Create Motion Tween (or Motion option from the Tween panel of the Properties inspector) and insert a Key Frame (F6).
Select the 10th frame and insert a Key frame (F6) and move the ball to a different position say, above the current position to create a motion sequence (automatically tweened by Flash).
Save your work and test the Movie (Ctrl + Enter). That's it you have created simple animation using Motion Tween.
Fig: Timeline of Motion Tween
Note: Use the Color Panel of the Properties inspector to reduce the Alpha value from 100 to 32 for the 1st and last frames to produce Simple Alpha Tweening as shown in the Example.
B. Creating Shape Tween in Flash
You can create Shape Tweened animations using Shape option from the Tween panel of the Properties inspector. Draw a vector using any of the drawing tools in Flash, say a small circle and remove its border.
Click the 10th frame in the Timeline and insert a Key Frame (F6). Now draw another shape say a diamond using the rectangle tool without a border.
Now right-click on any frame in between these two Key Frames and select Shape option from the Tween panel of the Properties inspector.
Save your work and test the Movie (Ctrl + Enter). That's it you have learnt how to create Shape Tween in Flash.
Fig: Timeline of Shape Tween
Note: Only vectors can be Shape Tweened (Not for Symbols). Note both the Tweens have different colors along the Timeline as shown above. Make sure that the line is smooth without being broken to ensure correct Tweening.
Fig: Timeline of Broken Tween
C. Frame-by-Frame Animation
Create a vector/plain text using any of the drawing tools in Flash, say a text with 'Animation' typed as shown in the example and break it using Break Apart (Ctrl + B) to separate the alphabets as shown below:
Fig: Showing Text after Break Apart
In Frame-by-Frame animation we create the object for each frame so as to produce an animation sequence.
Insert Keyframe (F6) and move the alphabets so as to produce an animation sequence.
Repeat the above step as far as desired to create Frame-by-Frame animation as shown in the example.
Save your work and test the Movie (Ctrl + Enter). That's it you have created an animation using Frame-by-Frame animation.
Fig: Timeline of Frame-by-Frame Animation
D. Creating a Guided Motion Tween in Flash
Create a vector/plain text using any of the drawing tools in Flash, say a text with 'Flash' typed and break it using Break Apart (Ctrl + B) as done in the previous example and put each alphabet in different layers and name the layers as shown in the picture below.
Insert a guide layer by right-clicking the topmost layer and select 'Add Guide Layer' (Insert-->Timeline-->Motion Guide), draw any path using the pencil tool in the guide layer as shown in the example.
Now create Motion tween by selecting the object in the 1st frame and snapping its registration point to one end of the path.
Snap the object in the last frame to the other end of the path in the guide layer.
Repeat the same for all the objects (alphabets) by snapping their registration points to the path in the guide layer.
Save your work and test the Movie (Ctrl + Enter). That's it you have learnt how to create motion along a guided path.
These instructions introduce you to the Flash CS3 interface and take you through some basic
exercises.
Step 1: Open Flash. Create a new file by selecting “Flash File (ActionScript 2.0)” from the Create New
menu.
Be sure to choose ActionScript 2.0 (rather than 3.0). ActionScript is the scripting language used
to control Flash movies, and ActionScript 2.0 and 3.0 are significantly different. We’ll be working only
with ActionScript 2.0 in these tutorials.
The Interface
The main components of the Flash interface are the Menu Bar, the Stage, the Toolbox, the Panels, and
the Timeline.
• The Menu Bar across the top of the window has ten menus: Flash, File, Edit, View, Insert,
Modify, Text, Commands, Control, Debug, Window, and Help. Some menu commands have
sub-menus, indicated by an arrow next to the command.
• The Stage is analogous to the canvas in Photoshop; you can adjust the size of the stage and
its color.
• The Toolbox, like the Photoshop toolbox, contains basic drawing tools, a magnification glass,
and color pickers for stroke and fill. Notice that when you select some tools, additional options
appear at the bottom of the Toolbox.
• The Panels are analogous to the palettes in Photoshop. All of the Panels are available under
Window > Panels. The Panels are movable, and you can open and close them by clicking on
the arrow next to the panel name. Key panels such as Properties and Actions are located by
default at the bottom of the screen.
• The Timeline is analogous, in some ways, to the Layers palette in Photoshop, On the
Timeline, you add, delete, name, move, lock, and change the visibility of layers in your Flash
movie. The Timeline also has the very important function of managing all of the animation and
navigation in your Flash movie.
Setting Movie Properties and Saving
You can set the size and background color of the stage for your movie by going to Modify >
Document. You can set these properties at the beginning and change them at any point as you work
on your movie.
Step 2: Go to Modify > Document and set the dimensions of the stage to 500 pixels by 400 pixels.
Choose a background color. Make the Frame Rate 15 fps (frames per second).
When you save a Flash movie (File > Save) you are creating a file with the extension .fla. This file
format is similar to the Photoshop .psd format in the sense that it preserves your layers and all of the
work you’ve done so that you can go back to it and make changes. When you’re finished with the
movie (or to test it as you’re working), publish the file in another format: .swf. All of the Flash
movies that you see on the Web are .swf files.
Step 3: Save your file on the Desktop. Call it “test.fla”.
To select a shape or line once you’ve drawn it, use the Arrow tool (the black arrow in the Toolbox);
you can move, delete, or modify the color or style of the fill or stroke once it’s selected. You can also
use the Arrow tool to reshape lines and shapes. Position the Arrow tool over the edge of a shape that
you’ve drawn and drag on that edge.
Step 4: Experiment with the drawing tools by drawing shapes and lines on Layer 1. Use the Arrow
tool to adjust shapes.
Layers
As you may have noticed in Step 4 above, when you draw multiple objects on the same layer, the
portion underneath is replaced by whatever is on top. Paint of the same color merges together; paint
of different colors remains distinct. To avoid inadvertently altering shapes and lines by overlapping
them, use layers to separate them.
To create a new layer, click on the Insert Layer icon on the left side of the bottom row of the Timeline.
To name a layer, double-click on it and type in a new name. The visibility and locking features work
the same as in Photoshop, and you can change the stacking order of layers as you do in Photoshop.
Step 5: Create several new layers, name them, and draw different shapes on each. Experiment
adjusting the opacity of different shapes by using the Alpha option in the Mixer panel.
Save the file.
Text
The Text tool (the “T” in the Toolbox) allows you to type text; you can then set the attributes of the
text through the Properties panel. The options are similar to those in Photoshop.
As in Photoshop, text is a vector graphic; you convert it to bitmap or a rasterized graphic by using
Modify > Break Apart [Control-B (PC) or Command-B (Mac)]. If you select a word or phrase, the first
time you use Modify > Break Apart, the word or phrase into individual letters/symbols; the second
time you use Modify > Break Apart each letter will be rasterized. As in Photoshop, once you rasterize
text you cannot go back and retype or change spelling; text becomes a graphic once it’s rasterized.
When you first begin to type, Flash creates a text box with a round resize handle. Drag on this handle
to set the width of the text box; the text will wrap to fit inside this width. You can readjust the width
later.
Step 6: Type text on one or more layers. Experiment with the text options, including Modify > Break
Apart. Notice that once you’ve rasterized text, you can use the Arrow tool to drag on the edges of
letters and create odd shapes.
Animation
You create animation in a Flash movie by changing the contents of successive frames. You can make
an object move across the Stage, increase or decrease its size, rotate, change color, fade in or out, or
change shape. Changes can occur independently of, or in concert with, other changes. For example,
you can make an object rotate and fade in as it moves across the Stage.
There are two methods for creating an animation sequence in Flash: tweened animation, and frame-
by-frame animation. Frame-by-frame animation is laborious and creates large files, so we’ll skip right
to tweening.
In tweened animation, you create starting and ending frames and let Flash create the frames in
between. Flash varies the object's size, rotation, color, or other attributes evenly between the starting
and ending frames to create the appearance of movement or change.
Flash can create two types of tweened animation: shape tweening and motion tweening. Shape
tweening is used for changing the shape of graphics, whereas motion tweening is used for animating
symbols. We’ll start with shape tweening.
Step 8: Add a new layer and name it “shape tween”. Delete all of your other layers. Draw a shape on
this layer.
In the Timeline, select Frame 20—that is, click in the frame under the number 20. Choose Insert >
Timeline > Keyframe (or F6). You now have a 20-frame movie in which nothing happens.
What’s a keyframe?
A keyframe is a special kind of frame that holds new content or at which a change in content occurs.
In the Timeline, a keyframe is indicated with a circle.
To delete a keyframe, select the keyframe in the timeline. Then the easiest thing is to right-click (or
with a Mac, Option-click) on it and select Clear Keyframe from the dropdown menu. You can also
remove selected frames and keyframes by going to Edit > Timeline > Remove Frames.
Creating and viewing the tween
Step 9: Click on frame 20 (only that frame should be highlighted, or gray). Use the Arrow tool to
select the object you drew, and move that object somewhere else on the screen. You can do other
modifications to the object, such as change its shape, color, or opacity.
Click in one of the boxes in the timeline between frames 1 and 20 on the “shape tween” layer.
In the Properties panel, select Shape from the Tweening dropdown menu.
What you’ve done above is to create two objects, the one in keyframe 1 and the other in keyframe 20.
You’ve also applied a shape tween that transforms one object into the other.
There are several ways for you to view the animation you just created. You can move the playhead at
the top of the Timeline to frame 1 and drag it over to frame 20. Or, go to Window > Controller and
use the options in the Controller panel. Or, go to Control > Rewind, and then Control > Play.
Library and Symbols
In Flash, you can create graphics that you reuse. These are called symbols; they are stored in a
Library. Every Flash document has its own Library, which you can access by going to Window >
Library, or F11, or Control-L. In the Library of your Flash movie, you can create folders to help you
organize your symbols.
Not all graphics in a Flash movie are symbols; you have to convert a graphic into a symbol in order to
put it in the Library and be able to reuse it. To turn a graphic into a symbol, select the graphic and go
to Modify > Convert to Symbol. In the resulting dialog box, give your graphic a name and choose
Graphic as the Behavior of the symbol. Flash adds the symbol to the Library. From the Library you can
drag the symbol onto the Stage; each symbol on the stage is called an instance of the symbol, and
each instance can be modified.
Step 11: Create a new layer, name it, and draw a shape on it. Select this object and convert it into a
Graphic symbol (Modify > Convert to Symbol). From the Library, drag three or four instances of the
symbol onto the Stage. Modify each instance so that it looks different—by changing the size, the color,
or the opacity, for instance.
Note that to change the color or opacity of an instance of a symbol, you have to use the Color option
in the Properties panel—that is, you can’t use the Color Mixer or Fill option to change the color of an
instance of a symbol. In the dropdown menu under the Color option, Tint will change the color and
Alpha will change the opacity.
Motion Tweening
Motion tweening is similar to shape tweening except that you work with instances of symbols rather
than with graphics. You can’t alter the shape of the symbol instance, but you can modify it (as
described above) and reposition it to create the effect of movement. One other important difference is
that whereas you can have many shape tweens on one layer, you can only have one motion tween per
layer.
Step 12: Create a new layer and name it “motion tween”. Type a word and use the Arrow tool to
select it. Convert the word into a symbol (Modify > Convert to Symbol). Delete it from the Stage.
In the Timeline, select frame 5 on the “motion tween” layer, and choose Insert > Timeline > Keyframe
(or F6). Select this keyframe and drag the symbol you just created from the Library onto the stage.
Select frame 20 and insert a keyframe. Click in the Timeline in a frame between 5 and 20, go to the
Properties panel, and select Motion from the dropdown Tweening menu. Notice that all the frames
between 5 and 20 now have a purple color and there is an arrow that indicates the presence of a
tween in these frames.
Click on keyframe 5. In the Color menu on the Properties panel, select Alpha and change the
percentage to 0%. When you play the animation, the word should fade in. Save your file.
Stopping the Animation
We’ll get into this in more detail later, but for now you may want to know how to stop the animation
from playing over and over again. Here are the steps involved in adding a Stop action to your movie.
Makeup is meant to enhance features not bring negative attention to you. That's what wearing too much makeup will do; it will bring you unwanted attention. Don't wear too much of anything such as:
i) Eyeliner: dark, thick eyeliner will make you look overdone and will ruin the rest of your makeup.
ii) Mascara: too much mascara looks fake and will flake. It looks especially bad if worn with thick eyeliner or dark blue eye eye shadow.
iii) Foundation: Make sure your foundation is the same color as your skin. Foundation is meant to protect and give the face a smooth look. The magic word is blend.
iv) Powder:The same holds true for powder - not too much. Also, be sure to blend your makeup so there are no obvious lineS
2. Lips
Apply lip liner to completely cover the lips, add color and your lipstick will stay on much longer. Make sure your lip liner doesn't show. Also, your lip color should match your skin tone; wear cool colors if you have cool coloring and warm colors if you have warm coloring. If you want to make your lips look smaller, keep your liner on the inside of your lips. However, if you decide to make your lips look larger, going outside the natural outline of you lips is a mistake. This can look quite messy and unnatural.
3. Appropriate makeup
Wear makeup that is appropriate for the occasion. If you are going to the beach you shouldn't wear the same or as much makeup as you would if you were going dancing. Also, when you are in daylight your makeup should be a lighter than when you are out for the evening.
4. Too little or no makeup
Some women don't wear makeup because they are not sure how to use it and are afraid of being overdone. If you are unsure, start will light colours in your shade. Start slowly and add one product at a time. Maybe start with foundation, add mascara, blush or lipstick. If you are not used to wearing makeup, using a lot a first may be a little too much for you, so start slowly. The bottom line is a little is better than none. If you are still unsure seek professional advice.
5. Overall look
When your makeup is completed it should look natural. That means avoiding colours that clash. If you have dark skin and hair you will look better in darker shades; light colours will make you look washed out. If your hair and skin tone are light, light colours will look better on you. Dark makeup will make you look older and harsh. If you have oily skin, first use oil control moisturizer and foundation. Then be sure to wear loose powder, keeping pressed powder with you for touch ups.
6. Hair color
Your hair color should also be in harmony with your skin. If you have dark hair and you want to add color, keep it close to the same shade. If you have light hair, use light colors. As you age your skin will lighten, so should your hair color. One last thing about hair color - if you do color you hair be sure you keep it up, don't let your roots show.
7. One last thing
Keep makeup looking fresh all day by doing regular touch ups. Don't let your makeup fade or crease. Smile!!!
If you have a new puppy or dog, then you need to provide some sort of basic training for your pet. You can train your dog yourself or can get it trained through an obedience instructor. As dogs are like kids, they need proper training to mould them into obedient pets. With the required training, your dog can learn how to behave. You can be a happy owner if you have a trained dog. Dog training involves learning to communicate with a dog properly. You can train young pups within 2 to 3 weeks while for an older dog it can take about 7 to 8 weeks for training. Basic training can be started for pups when they are about 8 -12 weeks old for teaching commands and tricks. From about 3 to 6 months, formal classes can begin.
With understanding and patience, the trainer can impart efficient training to resolve the behavioral problems of dogs. For adequate training of your dog, you do not require any strong language or physical discipline. There are a number of methods for making training enjoyable for both your dog and yourself. Certain specific trainings are also available for dogs for doing tasks such as rescue dogs, guiding for the blind, hunting dogs etc.
When providing training for your dog, ensure that the place is open and quiet without any distractions. You can make the training experience an enjoyable one for both of you for ensuring that your dog stays happy, gains confidence and behaves well. The way and tone of speech is important in dog training. You need to use a friendly and happy tone for commands like 'come' and ‘heel’. Your voice can be firm and low for commands such as ' stay' and ‘Sit down'. You need to appreciate your puppy or dog by offering some toy or food when it obeys the command. After the training class, you can take a little time to play with your pup or dog and this can develop a bond between both of you during the training. You should have good endurance to train and always should avoid harsh punishment.
Remember that food is important in dog training, as most dogs will love to eat. Some foods are tasty for dogs and it is also convenient for the trainer as bits of food can be kept in bag or pockets. Also note that giving food brings positive associations while training. You need to just know which food your dog likes. Never use food for behavior control; instead food should support a behavior. Never train the dog on a full stomach.
