If you have partial hearing, turn the volume up and listen along -- you'll be able to attach the "sounds" to the lip motions. If you are completely deaf, turn the closed captions on and use them to guide your lip reading. The whole time focusing on what your lips look like when they make different sounds/words. Slow down and try out tricky syllables or related sounds (like p, b, and m) to get used to the combination of word and visual. By saying the words out loud as you read, you help internalize the syllable for future lip reading. Unfortunately, most conversations don't take place in a television studio. To improve your daily lipreading skills, start with your friends. Let them know you're working on lipreading, and that they can help by speaking clearly, slowly, and looking straight at you. As you get better, ask them to speed up to normal conversational pace. Offered in most cities and towns, these are casual, supportive communities to practice in.

Problem: Article: If you're feeling sticky, rinse off in a cool or warm shower right after you tan. Use a mild soap or body wash to cleanse away any lotion, sweat, or dirt that’s stuck on your skin. After you rinse off the soap, pat yourself dry with a clean towel.  Don’t take hot showers immediately after you tan because they can dry out your skin. It’s best to avoid exfoliating after you tan because it will remove the top layer of skin, making your skin appear lighter. Squeeze a quarter-sized amount of lotion onto your hand, then slather it over your body. Massage the lotion into your skin to help it absorb. Add more lotion to your palm when necessary.  Pick a thicker moisturizer, like a cream. Look for one that has natural oils, shea butter, or cocoa butter for added moisture. Alternatively, try a lotion that's made to be used after sun exposure. However, avoid petroleum jelly because it can lock in heat.  Hydrated skin looks healthy and supple. Tanning can dry out your skin, but water rehydrates you from the inside. Make sure you’re drinking extra water every day while you’re tanning. This will help keep your skin looking youthful and hydrated. If you’re also very active, you may need more water. If you’re not sure how much water to drink, talk to your doctor for the best advice. Cool showers and moisturizer will keep your skin moist, which reduces flaking and peeling. When you shower, set the water on cool and keep it short. Then, apply an even layer of moisturizer over your entire body. Consider using an illuminating lotion in the morning to boost your glow. These work like regular lotions but leave your skin looking shiny. You can find an illuminating lotion at your favorite beauty supply store or online. If your skin is looking a little red, cool it down with a cool towel or a cool shower. Then, apply a thin layer of aloe vera gel over the sunburn to replenish lost moisture and help it heal faster. Additionally, drink a lot of water to help rehydrate your skin. While your skin is healing, stay out of the sun to prevent further damage. If your sunburn hurts, take over-the-counter NSAIDs, such as ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin) or naproxen (Aleve). Just check with your doctor first.
Summary: Rinse off in the shower to remove lotion, sweat, and grime. Apply moisturizer to your skin after tanning to prevent dry skin. Drink 10 to 12 cups (2.4 to 2.8 L) of water daily to stay hydrated. Extend your tan by taking cool showers and moisturizing. Care for a mild sunburn with a cool towel and aloe vera.

Problem: Article: If your processor allows you to select different blades and bowls, choose the correct ones for shredding lettuce. Ideally, you'll want a large bowl and an adjustable slicing disc. To shred lettuce for a chopped salad, select a slicing disc that will create thick slices. Set the speed setting to “slow.” On a KitchenAid food processor, the 6th notch on the slicing disc will produce the appropriate thickness. Remove the outer layers of leaves, until there is no dirt visible. Be sure to remove any leaves that have wilted. Run the entire head of lettuce under running water, and rub the surface gently with your fingers to remove any remaining dirt or pesticides on the leaves. If the lettuce is marked “ready-to-eat,” it has been certified clean by the FDA. You can eat it as-is, or wash it again, just to be safe. The trunk of the lettuce head tends to be tough, and has a bitter flavor. Using a sharp chef's knife, cut the pale tip from the head and discard it. Tear the leaves from the head gently, until you have a pile of lettuce leaves. Stack them together into a small pile. Place the stack of lettuce leaves into the feed tube or spout, with the blender or food processor on low speed. Gradually feed the leaves into the food processor until they have all been shredded. Turn the food processor off, and remove the shredded lettuce leaves. Depending on the type of food processor you have, you may need to disconnect the the collecting bowl from the machine. Transfer the shredded leaves to a serving dish, or to a large mixing bowl if you will be adding more ingredients.
Summary: Assemble the food processor. Adjust the settings on your food processor. Wash the lettuce leaves. Remove the stalk of the lettuce head. Stack the leaves. Feed the lettuce into the processor. Transfer the lettuce into a serving bowl.
