Dry water that accumulates indoors after heavy rains. Use an indoor/outdoor vacuum on major puddles. After a flood, remove any water-damaged items that can’t be thoroughly dried, including carpets, bedding, and furniture.  Don't leave wet clothes or towels lying around the house. Hang clothes to dry after laundering them or put them in the drier immediately. Dry wet spots on carpets and rugs within 24-48 hours. Run an exhaust fan or open the window when you shower. Wipe down the floor and walls in your bathroom after a shower. Regrade your yard so it slopes away from your home. If it slopes towards your house,  water doesn’t collect in your basement or crawlspace. Lower humidity by running dehumidifiers and window air conditioners. Use fans, but only within 48 hours of flooding or else mold spores can be blown around. Avoid using heaters or turning up the heat in confined areas because mold grows more quickly in higher temperatures. Use a ½ percent bleach solution to clean the condensation pan under the coil of your central air conditioner. Also check to be sure the drain on your air conditioner is working properly. Seal any leaky air conditioner duct joints with flexible mastic.  Sealing the ducts is especially important if they run through a hot attic where the heat and leaky cool air create moisture for mold to grow. Clean all humidifiers, which both distribute mold throughout your home and give mold a place to grow. Use an antimicrobial solution to clean humidifier reservoirs.

This will bring up a list of your iPhone's currently open apps.  On an iPhone X, swipe up from the bottom of the screen to the middle of the screen and leave your finger there until your open apps appear. If double-pressing the Home button doesn't do anything, you don't have any currently open apps. Swipe left or right through the list of open apps to find apps you want to close. Swipe up the window for any open app you want to close. Memory-intensive apps, such as video-editing or streaming apps, will have more of an effect on your iPhone's RAM than simpler apps. Sometimes, your iPhone's RAM cache can fill up, making your iPhone significantly more sluggish than usual. You can take care of this problem by holding the Lock button until your iPhone's slide to power off switch appears and then press and hold the Home button until the Home Screen reappears (at least 5 seconds).  You may first have to disable Siri to do this. If you use an iPhone X, you'll have to turn on AssistiveTouch and then do the following: open Settings, tap General, scroll down and tap Shut Down, tap the AssistiveTouch icon, and hold the Home button until the Home Screen reappears. If your iPhone is still running slowly, force-restarting it may fix the problem:   iPhone 6S and down — Press and hold the Lock and Home buttons until the Apple logo appears on-screen, then release the buttons and allow your iPhone to restart.  iPhone 7 and 7 Plus — Press and hold the Lock and Volume Down buttons until the Apple logo appears on-screen, then release the buttons and allow your iPhone to restart.  iPhone 8, 8 Plus, and X — Press and release the Volume Up button, press and release the Volume Down button, press and hold the Lock button, and release the Lock button when the Apple logo appears.

For instances where the radius of the curve is three inches or greater, you can cautiously bend the laminate without heating it, so start by measuring the radius of the curve. You can measure this by locating the spot on each side of the counter’s rounded edge where the curve begins and drawing straight lines perpendicular to those edges to the point where they intersect. Then measure the length of that intersection back to the edge.  You can think of the point of intersection as the point where you’d put the pin of a compass in order to trace the edge of the curve.  The larger the radius of the curve, the gentler the bend. If the radius is three inches or more, then you can attempt to cold bend your laminate. In order to stop any gaps, bubbles, or distorting of the laminate, you need to make sure that the vertical edge around which the laminate will bend is perfectly square with the top surface of the counter. Check this by ensuring that the horizontal surface edge and vertical edge come together perfectly with a T-square. If the edge is not perfectly square, then you can smooth down the vertical surface with a belt sander to finish preparing it for the laminate. You want to use a strip of laminate that is roughly 1/2” wider than the width of the edge to which you’re attaching it. This is just in case the laminate shifts a tiny bit as you bend it into place. It’s easier to use a router to trim the excess after the piece is in place than it is to place it perfectly. After applying your laminate glue to the strip, do NOT attach the laminate by starting at the curve and folding the sides back. You want to start with the end of the strip on one of the straight sides of the edge before the curve. Use a J-roller to roll this section down tight before bending over the curve. A J-roller is a roller with a rubber head that allows you to roll any bubbles out of the laminate without damaging the surface. You should have one handy for all laminate projects. Now that one end of the strip is firmly in place, begin slowly bending the rest of the strip around the curve. Keep your J-roller in your other hand, so you can firmly roll the strip as more and more of it comes in contact with the edge as you bend. Once the entire strip is in place, you want to continue making several more passes across the entire thing with your J-roller to ensure that you don’t have any bubbles or gaps. Read the instructions for the specific laminate glue you used, so you know how long it needs to set. Once it’s dry, trim the excess portion of the strip off with a router.

Include your name (what you would like them to address you by), your academic background, and your interests. You could say something like, “Good morning class, my name is John Smith, you can call me John or Professor Smith. I received my degree in Communications from XYZ College and my masters from ABC University. I just moved to the area recently and enjoy exploring downtown and going hiking with my dog, Bruce.”  It’s helpful to share details that students can identify with, but be wary of sharing overly personal information. This is also a time you could share any awards you have won, areas of study you are interested in or involved in, publications, or boards you serve on. You want to establish as much credibility as possible. Be welcoming and warm, making sure to look around the room as you introduce yourself. If you are nervous, try looking above the heads of the students instead of making direct eye contact. Move your body and walk around the room if you feel comfortable. Remember that your students see you as the person of authority in the room. Chances are, they won’t notice if you are nervous or forget something you had planned to say. Be confident and know that there is always time to cover anything you may have forgotten. While you are giving your introduction, pass out the class syllabus so the students can begin looking it over. You can then refer to it after your personal introduction to share your expectations for the class (attendance, participation, structure, projects). Setting the tone for the class on the first day is an important part of teaching a successful, engaging course. Practice several times before you actually are in front of your students.
