Article: After you get in the water, whether you're swimming in the ocean or a pool or just taking a bath or a shower, you should be attentive to keeping your ears dry. Wipe the water off the outside of your ears with a clean cloth, and pat the area closer to your ear canal dry, too. Make sure to tilt your head to one side or another to shake out any of the excess water in your ears. It's true that some people are more prone to getting water stuck in their ears than others, since a lot of it depends on the shape of your ear. If you tend to get water stuck in your ears a lot, then you should be especially vigilant. While you may think that a cotton swab could help you excavate your ears, whether you want to remove water, wax, or a foreign object, using a q-tip actually has the opposite effect, and it can actually push the water or wax deeper into your ear. It can also scratch the inside of your ear, causing further pain.  Using a tissue to clean the inside of your ears can scratch them as well. You can use a few drops of mineral or baby oil to loosen ear wax if you need to. If you want to clean the outside of your ears, wipe them down gently with a damp cloth. Using earplugs or cotton balls when you sleep at night can have a similar effect to cotton swabs if your ears have water or other substances stuck in them, pushing the matter deeper into your ear. If you're having ear pain or feel that there's water stuck in your ear, then avoid these nighttime aids for the time being. You should also avoid headphones until the pain clears up, too.

Dry your ears after swimming. Avoid using cotton swabs to clean your ears. Avoid using earplugs or cotton balls in your ears when you have water stuck in them.

Problem: Article: The sun can dry out and kill your crops if they do not have enough water to replenish themselves. Use a garden hose or a sprinkler system to water your crops thoroughly every day from May to September. If the temperature reaches above 90 °F (32 °C), water your crops twice a day. Winter crops like rye do not need to be watered unless it is a particularly dry winter. Because you are planting this crop in rows, you will be able to walk the center area between rows. Remove any weeds by hand that sprout up during your growing season. Make sure you get the root of the weed when you pull it so that it doesn’t grow back.  Weeds are much easier to pull in loose or wet soil. Try not to disturb the roots of your crop as you weed. If you see leaves that have been eaten, it could be a sign of insects or vermin. Use a chicken-wire fence to keep out small animals like mice and rabbits. Remove and kill insects as you find them, or use a natural deterrent like peppermint oil to keep pests away. Many common garden vegetables are harvested as they become ripe, and continue to produce throughout the growing season with proper care. Grains, on the other hand, are most often harvested when they are fully ripened and dry on the plant. Use sharp, clean gardening tools to pick or cut your crops so you don’t damage the plants. If you have grown grains, use barns which will keep your stored harvest dry and safe from insects and vermin. A combination of storage and preservation methods are the best way to reduce food waste. Drying, canning, freezing, and bedding are all viable options for storing food. Bedding is a method for storing root crops such as potatoes, rutabagas, and beets. Lay your root crops in a dry, cool location on a straw bed.
Summary: Water your garden every day during the summer. Weed your garden if it is getting overrun. Deter pests with fences and natural sprays. Harvest your crops when they are ripe. Preserve your food if you can’t eat it all.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Before you can apply for a Singapore passport, you must have a digital, color photograph of passport-size taken within the past 3 months. ICE has additional technical specifications for the photo available on its Application for Passport On-line Electronic System (APPLES). You can also use a printed passport photo if you prefer to apply for your passport through the mail, or in person at an ICA customer service counter. You can download an application for a passport at https://www.ica.gov.sg/cms/files/forms/IMM%20(E)%2011.pdf, or pick up a paper copy at any of the ICA customer service counters. There are different forms if you are submitting your application through the mail, in person, or online. Make sure you're filling out the correct form. Singapore allows you to submit your application for a passport online, through the mail, or in person. Your application must be accompanied by the S$70 application fee. You can pay your fee using a debit or credit card, or by direct debit from a Singapore bank account. When ICA begins processing your passport application, they issue a pink acknowledgement card and mail it to you. Generally you can expect this card within a week after you submitted your application. This card will include information on when and where you can collect your passport. Keep the card, as you may need to show it when you pick up your passport. This is typically around a month after you submitted your application. When your new passport is ready, go to the ICA building to pick it up in person. You can make an appointment if you want to decrease your wait time. Take with you the pink acknowledgement card, your identity card, and your citizenship certificate. If you don't pick up your new passport within 3 months of the date it is issued, it will be cancelled. Your fees will not be refunded.

SUMMARY: Have passport photos taken. Complete your application. Submit your completed application and photos. Receive your acknowledgement card. Collect your new passport.

Choose a pair of jeans that flatters your figure and fits your body. Avoid jeans that are too snug in the hips and thighs. For a dressy look, you should also avoid jeans that are loose and baggy. Make sure your jeans rise high enough in the waist to provide coverage when you sit down. Low-rise jeans usually look more youthful and casual than other styles, so opt for a medium or high rise for a dressier appearance. Distressed jeans are popular, but they give off an extremely casual vibe. If you're trying to dress up, make sure your jeans don't have holes and are free from stains. You can still dress up light to medium wash jeans, but darker shades of denim look nicer and more formal than lighter shades. Dark wash jeans are also the most appropriate for casual business occasions. In addition to dark blues, you could also choose black jeans and dark gray jeans. A skinny jean may work under some circumstances, but they can look more rock-star than dressy. Boot-cut or straight-leg jeans more closely resemble trousers, and they will work for nearly anything from a fun night out with friends to a casual meeting with a new client. Black or white denim can be dressed up with relative ease. You might also be able to create a dressy look by pairing a brightly-colored denim with a blouse in a coordinating color or pattern.
