Problem: Article: It's easy to forget to blink when you're focused on something in front of you, like your favorite television show or a project on the computer. Remind yourself to blink frequently. This will help your eyes focus better and relieve any strain you may have put on them. Try to blink every three or four seconds for two minutes straight. Or, practice the 20-20-20 method. Every 20 minutes, look away from your screen to any object 20 feet away for 20 seconds. It may help to set a reminder alarm. Sometimes, your eyes just need a rest. Place your palms over your eyes with you fingers extending over your forehead and the heel of your palms resting on your cheek bones. Make yourself comfortable and avoid putting too much pressure on your eyes. Palming for even a few minutes can relieve eye strain and help you blink freely since you won't be focused on something in front of you. Eye strain can also lead to additional problems, such as tension and headaches.  Listen to your body, and give your eyes a rest when they tell you that they are tired. Imagine that you're looking at a large figure eight. Trace it with your eyes to strengthen your eye muscles, improve flexibility, and take a break from focusing on something.

Your eyes are controlled by muscles just like every other part of your body that moves.

Problem: Article: Most at-home teeth whitening kits use carbamide peroxide as the main bleaching ingredient. Peroxide is effective, but it can irritate the nerve endings of your teeth and cause sensitivity. Choose an in-home kit that contains a low peroxide level of 5 – 6%. A higher peroxide dose will not guarantee effectiveness and might cause a great deal of pain.  There are a wide variety of at-home whitening options: strips, paint-ons, mouth trays with gel, whitening toothpaste, and even whitening gum and mouthwash. If you have any concerns about the safety of these products, ask your dentist. If you do choose a tray-based whitening method, make sure that the tray fits securely over your teeth. If it is loose the gel can leak out and create widespread gum irritation and increased sensitivity. It may be tempting to use more gel to get quicker, whiter results. Don’t do it. Instead, follow the directions carefully and make the health of your mouth the priority. Using too much agent can cause gum irritation and even vomiting if swallowed. Extending the time beyond the package recommendations will not make your teeth any brighter or whiter. It will, however, possibly erode your tooth enamel, causing future issues with sensitivity and decay caused by fractures in the enamel. The recommended length of time will generally depend on the percentage of active peroxide, which varies from product to product.
Summary: Choose an at-home whitening treatment kit. Apply the recommended amount of whitening agent and no more. Leave the whitening product on for the suggested time.

Problem: Article: Arrange the pork chops on a large plate and rub the seasoning onto both sides of each piece. Spread the flour out in a large, shallow plate and have it ready. Dip each pork chop into the flour, making sure to thoroughly coat each piece. Brush off any excess flour and then transfer each piece of meat into the skillet. Arrange the meat in a single layer on the pan, cooking in separate shifts if necessary. Flip each piece over once as you cook. The paper towels will absorb any excess oil. Enjoy with a side of salad, grilled vegetables, and/or mashed potatoes.
Summary: Combine the salt, pepper, cayenne pepper, and celery seeds in a bowl to form a rub for the pork chops. Pour the buttermilk over the pork chops, flipping them over once to coat both sides. Heat the oil to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (176 degrees Celsius) in a deep skillet. Fry each piece of meat for 8-10 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove the chops from the skillet and place them in a serving dish that is lined with paper towels. Serve immediately.

Problem: Article: A basic fabric store should carry all the required items. Many fabric stores will offer left over scraps of fabric at discount prices.
