Problem: Article: Designate a separate binder or notebook specifically for math class (one binder or notebook per class if you’re taking multiple math classes). Set up a section for in-class notes, a section for reading notes, and a section for homework. Set aside time in your schedule for math homework and study. Otherwise you may be tempted to procrastinate, find yourself getting behind, or end up studying at inopportune times (like when you’re tired or rushed).  Make time each day to work on math. Even if you don’t have a homework assignment every day, set aside at least 15 minutes to spend working on sample problems and reviewing your notes. Studying every day will help cement your math knowledge in place and make it easier to access when you need it. At the university level, you can plan to need approximately 2-4 hours of studying per week for each hour of class instruction. Remember that studying math, unlike some other subjects, is about doing math, so your study/practice time is the most important to your success. Read ahead in the book to the chapter that will be covered in the next class. Knowing the main idea and general precepts of the chapter before going to class will help you better understand and keep up with the material in class. Read back through the notes from the previous class before your next class so you’ll be up to date and prepared for the new material. Reading your previous notes will help you make necessary connections between the old and new material and give you a more solid foundation on which to build new skills.
Summary: Set up a well-organized binder or notebook. Schedule study time. Read ahead. Review notes before class.

Problem: Article: Put a dozen ice cubes into a plastic bag, and hold the ice against the gummed surface. Keep it there for as long as needed to completely chill the gum.  Ice cubes will freeze the gum into a more solid element. Once the gum is chilled or frozen, you'll be able to remove the gum by chipping it off the table with a dull knife. Soak the corner of a paper towel in vegetable oil, then press it against the gummed table. Rub the area vigorously. The gum should release from the table.  Any kind of vegetable oil will work for this method. A light, unscented oil such as canola will leave less of a residue. To use this method, tear off a short section of duct tape. Lay the duct tape on the affected surface, sticky side down. Press the tape to the table, then lift it off.  The gum should stick to the duct tape and lift off. If there's still any gum on your table, repeat this method until the gum is removed. Put a small amount of peanut butter on, and let it sit for 15 minutes. Follow by scraping it off with a butter knife.  The oil in the peanut butter will help to dissolve the chewing gum and release it from the table. If you don't have peanut butter, try another oily substance such as mayonnaise, facial moisturizer or make-up remover wipes. Press the blade between the gum and the table's surface. Push the blade gently across the table, being careful not to press down. Pressing down could scratch the table.  A dull edge, such as a butter knife, should be used. Sharper blades should be used with caution, as they could cut you or scratch the table. Try putting a little vegetable oil on the blade to aid in removal.
Summary: Apply ice cubes. Rub with vegetable oil. Use duct tape. Dab with peanut butter. Scrape gum off using a blade.

Problem: Article: Spider mites will weaken your plant, and the leaves will often form small yellow or brown dots. You may also notice leaves drying up and falling off your plant. Spider mites will leave webs under the leaves and stems on the plant. Look at your plants daily to see if there is webbing on any of your plants. Since spider mites are less than 1 mm in size, they can be hard to see with the naked eye. Purchase a magnifying glass from a department store or online and examine the leaves on your plants. If you see small specks moving on the leaves, there's a good chance you have spider mites. If you don't have a magnifying glass, you can use a white sheet of paper to see the mites. Hold a piece of paper under the leaves of your plant and then shake them. If you see green, brown, or black specks start to move over the surface of the paper, you have spider mites. You can also crush the bugs with your finger. If they streak green, they are plant-feeding mites. If they are orange or yellow, they are probably beneficial predators.
Summary: Look for yellow or brown dots on your plant's leaves. Examine your plants for webbing. Search for mites with a magnifying glass. Shake your plant's leaves over a white piece of paper.

Problem: Article: Products such as gels and serums can be great for getting your hair to do what you want, but too much can end up causing your hair to look greasy or “crunchy.” It’s always easier to add more than take products out! Roller-setting your hair can help straighten and smooth your hair with less heat than a curling iron or straightener. Use a heavy conditioner and completely detangle before using rollers. Magnetic rollers and satin-covered foam rollers will be kinder to natural hair than other types. Avoid velcro or mesh rollers at all costs, as they are prone to tangling and could break your hair. Protective styles such as braids, twists, and knots keep the hair secured, which cuts down on styling time and helps to take pressure off of fragile ends. There are many tutorials online that break down these styles into easy DIY steps. Good sources for styling advice include "Curly Nikki" and "Naturally Curly." Some protective styles, such as braids, can take hours to do and are best done by a professional hairstylist. Others, such as buns and twists, can be easily done at home. You can keep all styles looking fresh by spritzing them daily with a mixture of water, leave-in conditioner, and moisturizing oils such as olive oil or coconut oil. Even protective styles such as braids and twists shouldn't be left in longer than 12 weeks. Always deep condition and seal your hair after taking out a style.
Summary:
Apply styling products in layers. Use rollers to straighten and set your hair. Consider protective styles. Moisturize your hairstyle daily. Take out a style after 3 months.
