In order to make sense of these instructions, we should know how to refer to each area of the balloon that we’ll be dealing with. Memorizing these terms—or just consulting this list if you become confused—will help immensely in the task ahead of us.  The body is what we might consider the main area of the balloon; it’s the spherical or oval-like chamber that we fill with air. The lip is that ring of thicker material that surrounds the balloon’s opening and is where air enters and exits the balloon. The neck is that slightly elongated area leading from the body to the lip.

Summary: Understand the anatomy of a balloon.


Farms selling eggs that have earned the certified organic label are visited annually by an Organic Program Food Inspector, which ensures their quality. Also, certified organic eggs must come from chickens that have been fed organic feed, kept in humane living conditions and kept free from antibiotics or hormones. Many farmers may call their eggs “organic,” but certification is the only way to know for sure. These eggs tend to have thicker shells than large eggs and are less likely to become contaminated by bacteria. If hens are allowed to nest anywhere they choose, then farmers will have no idea how old the eggs are or with what they have been in contact. Also, nest litter should be kept clean and dry and changed frequently. and preferably twice per day. The longer an egg remains in the nest, the more likely the egg will become dirty, broken or lose interior quality. The relative humidity in the room should be about 75 percent. Recycling a previously used egg carton is not recommended, and it is illegal in many places for farmers to sell eggs in a carton bearing the name of another farm.

Summary: Choose certified organic eggs. Select medium or small eggs. Nesting hens should be kept in a fenced area. Eggs should be collected before 10:00 a.m. Eggs should be stored large end up at a temperature between 50 and 55°F (10 and 13°C). Bring your own carton in which to carry eggs home. Finished.


In the long term, emotional intimacy can build attraction. As you're trying to get to know someone, have deeper conversations. Talk about your hopes, dreams, and fears with the other person. This can help build mutual feelings of attraction.  Allow deep topics to be introduced organically into the conversation. If something emotional comes up, do not change the subject. Discuss the issue. Oftentimes, you can establish a solid, loving connection with someone in a short period of time by simply opening up. People are more attracted to those who make themselves available. Avoid doing things like playing hard to get. Instead, make yourself present in the person's life. Respond quickly to texts and phone calls. Make an effort to see the person regularly. People are attracted to those who care for themselves. If you want to help someone develop feelings of attraction to you, work on maintaining a healthy lifestyle and taking care in your physical appearance.

You can try doing nice things for them as well. For example, if you know someone has had a bad day, bring them coffee or a donut at work.

Summary: Open up. Interact regularly. Take care of yourself. Care for the other person.


Make sure the straps are loose--you can tighten them later if you need to. If you have trouble hooking a bra behind your back, you can hook the bra at the front and then twist it around your waist so the hooks are at your spine. The cups may feel empty or a little too big at this point, but that's ok. The band should be snug and low on your back. Pull all the soft flesh forward and up. Then hold the bra in the center between the two cups and jiggle it. Straps shouldn't be so tight they dig into your shoulders, but there should be no slack.  Does the bra pinch your breasts or make it look like you have four boobs? Then it's the wrong size.  Your nipples should be about halfway between your shoulder and elbow.  If your breasts are spilling out of the sides of your bra, you need a different size. Just because you are a 34C now doesn't mean you will always have those same measurements. If you've gone through a major body change or your bra doesn't feel right, take your measurements again. Get refitted if your weight has fluctuated more than 10 pounds, you've had a baby, started exercising regularly, or have completed hormone therapy.
Summary: Hook the bra so it is hanging around your waist. Lean forward and pull the bra up from the front only, sliding your arms through the straps. Lean forward and, using the opposite hand, reach into the bra and pull the soft flesh near your armpits into the cup. Check the fit and tighten the straps. Remember your bra size is not permanent and will change along with your body.
