Problem: Article: with mild soap and water. Before you touch the open wound, clean your hands. Put on medical gloves if you can. This will protect the wound from exposure to bacteria and germs from your hands. If you are touching someone else’s open wound, wear medical gloves to protect your hands and prevent the spread of germs. Let the water wash off any dirt or debris on the wound. Do not scrub or pick at the wound while you rinse it, as this can cause more damage. Press on the wound with a clean, dry cloth, applying even pressure with your hands for several minutes until the bleeding slows. Minor wounds should stop bleeding within a few minutes once you apply pressure to them. If the wound does not stop bleeding after you have applied pressure for 10-15 minutes, go to the doctor. The wound may be too deep for you to treat at home. If the wound is on your leg, foot, or toes, set your leg on a chair or cushion so it sits above your heart. If the wound is on your arm, hands, or fingers, raise it above your head to help slow the bleeding. If the wound is on your torso, head, or genital area, seek medical attention as soon as you can. All head injuries, in particular, need to be evaluated by a doctor. If the open wound does not stop bleeding after 10-15 minutes, despite elevating it, go see your doctor. Use clean gauze to apply 1-2 layers of ointment or jelly. This will keep the area moist and prevent infection, which will speed up healing. Be careful not to press too hard on the open wound when applying the ointment, especially on any areas that are red or swollen. Use a Band-Aid that is large enough to cover the cut. Take a piece of gauze that is big enough to cover the open wound or use clean scissors to cut the gauze to fit. Place it on the wound and use medical tape around it to secure it. If you do not have gauze on hand, you can use a Band-Aid as long as it is big enough to cover the entire wound. The open wound may feel sore or irritated as it heals. Have acetaminophen, or Tylenol, to help with the pain every 4-6 hours or as specified on the label. Follow the dosage recommended on the label and never exceed the recommended amount. Do not take aspirin, as it can cause the wound to bleed.
Summary: Wash your hands Rinse the wound under running water. Use a clean, dry cloth to stop the bleeding. Elevate the wound above your heart to slow the bleeding. Apply antibiotic ointment or petroleum jelly to the wound. Put a bandage on a small cut. Use gauze on an abrasion or puncture wound. Take over-the-counter pain medication.

Problem: Article: Unless you are withdrawing the daily interest you are accumulating, it will be added to the original amount of your principal which is a great way to save. To calculate, you will need the principal amount, the annual interest rate, the number of compounding periods per year (365 for daily) and the number of years the money will be in your account. Assign labels in column A, rows 1-5, for the Principal, Interest Rate, Period, Number of Years and Compound Interest Balance. You can expand the cell by clicking on the right line of the column number, A, B, C, etc. (Arrows will then show that you can manipulate.) These labels are for your reference only. Period is 365 and the number of years is whatever you choose to calculate. Leave cell B5 (Compound Interest Balance) blank for now. For example, principal = $2,000, interest rate = 8% or .08, compounding periods = 365 and the number of years is 5. =B1*(1+B2/B3)^(B4*B3) and click enter. Compounded daily, the total principal and interest earned balance is $2983.52 after 5 years. You can see it is a good idea to reinvest your interest earned. The formula to use is Initial investment * (1 + Annual interest rate / Compounding periods per year) ^ (Years * Compounding periods per year). The ^ indicates an exponent. For example, using the same information from Step 3, principal = $2,000, interest rate = 8% or .08, compounding periods = 365 and the number of years is 5. Compound interest =2,000 * (1 + .08/365) ^ (5 * 365) = $2983.52.
Summary: Collect the necessary information. Launch your preferred spreadsheet, such as Microsoft Excel. Enter the details for your specific calculation in column B, rows 1-4, to coincide with the labels. Click on cell B5 to select it and then click inside the formula bar to enter this formula: Calculate compound interest manually.

Problem: Article: Dates are ripe when they start turning brown. They'll also be slightly soft to the touch. Once you start seeing these changes, it's time to pick the ripe fruit.  Very immature dates will be green. They'll turn pinkish or orange as they are starting to get riper. Dates will ripen off the tree, so if your dates are being eaten by birds, you may want to harvest them early. You can also put netted bags over the fruit to keep the birds from eating them. As dates ripen, they also start to wrinkle. They almost look like a large raisin. When checking for ripe dates, look for wrinkles, as well. Dates ripen at different times. To maximize how many dates you get off the tree, you need to check it at least once a week for ripe dates. Watch for the pink-orange fruit, as they will ripen in about a week.
Summary:
Look for soft, brown fruit. Check for wrinkles. Look for ripe dates throughout the season.
