Q: If you find that you are having a particularly difficulty seeing at night, this can indicate an eye problem. Poor night vision can also be a symptom of cataracts, so if you do notice an appreciable difference in your night vision you should certainly visit an eye doctor.  You might realise you are beginning to have trouble driving at night, or can't see objects in the dark that other people can see.  Other indicators include, struggling to see stars at night or negotiate dark rooms, such as a movie theatre. The time it takes us to adapt to changes in light and dark surroundings generally increases as we get older. But if you notice that this adjustment is getting appreciably more difficult, it could signal an eye problem that may require glasses or contact lenses to correct, or could be related to a general medical condition. If you see bright circles that appear to surround a light source, such as light bulb, you may have an eye problem. Halos are a common symptom of cataracts, but can also indicate one of the four main eye problems. You should book an appointment with an eye doctor to get a diagnosis. If you are experiencing a noticeably increased sensitivity to light you should book an appointment with your eye doctor. It can indicate a number of eye problems, so you will need to see an expert for a full diagnosis. If the change is sudden and dramatic, don't hesitate to make an appointment. If you find light hurting your eyes, or you have to squint or wince when you are in bright light then your sensitivity may have increased.
A: Find out if you have trouble seeing in the dark. Consider whether you are having difficulty adjusting between light and dark surroundings. Discover whether or not you see halos around lights. Decide if you have increased sensitivity to light.

Q: Pay attention to where exits are located, objects and visual obstructions near you, and the people in your immediate area (or a lack of others entirely).  Know where the nearest populated environment is to your current location, in case you feel threatened and need to seek a crowd. Know where the nearest police or fire station is in areas you normally drive through. Don’t mistake familiarity for security.  Even if you are in a parking lot you often drive through or stop in during the day, do not assume it is also a safe place at night. Whether you are walking down the street or to your car, driving around an unfamiliar place, or jogging in a park, it is always better to be with someone you know than alone.  If you must go somewhere alone, tell someone in your family or housemates where you are going and at what time. If you live alone, text a friend or family member letting them know where you will be and when to expect to hear from you next. Walk confidently, looking ahead, like you know exactly where you are heading.  Never look lost or unsure of what you are doing or where you are going.  Don’t ask random people on the street for directions. Go inside a shop and ask a member of staff instead. Always park near a lit lamppost in car parks. This will keep your car illuminated at night and also will be easier to remember where you parked so you aren’t walking aimlessly around the area or looking for your car. Do this as soon as you get into your car. Avoid sitting in a parking lot fiddling with the radio, checking your mobile phone, putting on your seatbelt, or anything else you tend to do before you start driving. Always keep your doors locked while driving, especially in urban areas where there are lots of traffic lights and junctions. Most burglaries occur by criminals by trying out door handles or windows in a neighborhood until they find one that is unlocked. Don't risk it.
A: Be aware of your surroundings, always. Travel with someone whenever possible, especially at night. Act with purpose. Lock your car doors. Lock your doors and windows at home.

Q: Once your chalk lines are in place, you’ll need to rake along them on either side using a regular garden rake.  This will clear the base path of debris and smooth over any uneven parts. As the baseball field gets used, the chalk line will gradually degrade and blend into the surrounding clay.  Re-apply chalk in areas that have degraded. You will typically not need to touch up chalk lines during a game, and will probably only apply fresh chalk between games. Grip the weeds by their roots and pull them straight up.  Put them in the rubbish bin.  Use care to take up the whole root, otherwise the weed will soon return. A square tarp with edges of 165’ (50 meters) should adequately cover the three bases and home plate, including your chalk lines.  Lay this tarp over the field between games. There is no regular schedule according to which you must re-draw chalk lines.  Only a visual inspection can confirm whether chalk lines have been degraded beyond the point of use.  Distorted or very light chalk lines should receive a completely new Typically, a heavy rain will require new chalk lines once the field has dried.  Even rain, however, will not always require a fresh application of chalk.
A: Rake up and down along the length of the base paths. Touch up the chalk lines as needed. Remove weeds along the lines. Preserve your chalk lines by laying a tarp over the field when not in use. Draw fresh chalk lines when they become significantly degraded.

Q: Wasting water is one of the biggest ways individuals impact the health of the planet. Taking measures to use less water is something you can start doing right away. If you live in an area with a water shortage, this is even more important for the health of your region's environment. Try to check off as many items as possible from this list:  Check and fix any water leaks. A leaky faucet can waste a lot of water. Install water-saving devices on your faucets and toilets. A low-flow showerhead could be a good start. Don't wash dishes with the water running continuously. Use a method that requires less water to get the dishes clean. Turn off washing machine's water supply to prevent leaks. It doesn't need to be on all the time. Replace old toilets with new ones that use a lot less water. Wash and dry only full loads of laundry and dishes. Doing a half-load wastes water. Don't use too much water to water your lawn. Don't leave the faucet running while you brush your teeth. Chemicals used to wash our bodies, homes, cars and everything else get washed down the drain or absorbed in the grass, and eventually, end up in the water supply. Since most people use heavy-duty chemicals for all sorts of things, chemicals are doing real damage to waterways and aquatic life. The chemicals aren't good for humans, either, so do your best to cut back on them. Here's how:  Learn about alternatives to household cleaning items that do not use hazardous chemicals. For example, using a solution of 1/2 white vinegar and 1/2 waterworks as well as most commercial cleaners for basic cleaning jobs. Baking soda and salt are cheap, non-toxic cleansers, but should be used in moderation. When no good alternatives to a toxic item exist, determine the least amount required for an effective, sanitary result and use a minimal amount each time you clean. Paying close attention to the requisite amount will help you reduce and also save money. Instead of using chemical-laden shampoos and soaps, try  making your own. Instead of using pesticides and herbicides, find natural ways to get rid of weeds and pests. Paint, motor oil, ammonia, and a host of other chemicals should not be poured down the drain or directly into the ecosystem. They'll soak into the earth and end up in the groundwater. Contact your local sanitation department to find out about best practices for disposing of hazardous waste and toxic chemicals. Individuals can only do so much when it comes to keeping water clean. Businesses and industries are often the culprits when it comes to water pollution. In order to protect the earth's water, concerned citizens should speak up and find ways to stop pollution at its source.   Join a local environmental group that works to clean up the water in your area, whether it's a river, lake or ocean. Contact your local representative to speak up about your views on keeping water chemical-free. Volunteer to help clean up beaches or riverbanks. Help others get involved in efforts to clean up the water in your area.
A:
Conserve water at home. Use fewer chemicals. Dispose of toxic waste the right way. Help identify large-scale water polluters.
