Q: If you already had a Visa debit card through your bank and need to activate a replacement, you can do so using the same PIN you used for your old card. You can get groceries, gas, or anything else you need at any location where Visa cards are accepted. Run the transaction as debit, rather than credit. Input your existing PIN number when asked, which will activate your card. You can only use this method if you already have a PIN. Find an ATM for your bank. Insert your card and enter your existing PIN, then use your new debit card to make a deposit or withdrawal. The transaction will activate your new card. You must have an existing PIN to activate your card this way.
A: Use your existing PIN. Make a debit purchase anywhere Visa is accepted to activate your card. Activate your new card at an ATM by making a deposit or withdrawal.

Article: Solutions with higher than 20% are not advised for home use, and it’s best to start off with a mild concentration for your first time to see how your skin reacts. The product’s concentration should be listed on its label. Glycolic acid can be helpful for a variety of skin issues, including ingrown hairs, aging, and acne. You’ll get the best results if you look for a product that is tailored to your needs. Applying the acid in the evening will give your skin time to recover overnight. If you can't do it in the evening, make sure you wear a light-weight moisturizer with sunscreen in it if you're going to be outside at all. While the procedure for applying glycolic acid peels shouldn’t vary too much from one to the next, you should still read the instructions that come with your product thoroughly. Read them before you begin the process so you can be completely prepared. Wash your face with a mild cleanser to get rid of any grease, oils or dead skin. If you have any open cuts or cold sores on your face, you should put the treatment off until these are healed. This will help keep the glycolic acid solution from getting to the more sensitive parts of your face. Be careful not to get petroleum jelly in your eyes when applying. You can also make the water into a basic solution by adding ammonium salts, sodium bicarbonate (baking soda), or sodium hydroxide. Occasionally small crystals will form in the glycolic acid solution, and you want to avoid applying these to your skin, since they are more concentrated. Pouring the solution into a glass first will help you see and avoid any crystals that might be present. Make sure you aren’t getting too much solution on the swab or brush so that it doesn’t drip. Apply the solution gently and as evenly as possible, working from the forehead to the left cheek to the chin to the right cheek. Avoid your eyes, the corners of your nose, and your lips. If the glycolic acid solution does enter your eyes, flood the affected eye with regular saline solution. Watch your skin in the mirror after applying the solution. After about 3 minutes, the treated skin should be a fairly uniform reddish color. However, if the skin seems to be consistently red before 3 minutes, or you’re experiencing a lot of pain or stinging, you can apply the neutralizing solution sooner. Set up a fan so it's blowing in your face to help alleviate any itching or burning. Using a cotton ball or soft cloth, gently dab your face with the water or basic solution you set aside earlier for neutralizing. Be careful not to let the solution run, as it may run into your eyes, nose or mouth. Neutralize the treated skin thoroughly, using several cotton balls or cloths if necessary. After 4-6 months, you should start to see changes in your skin. If you're not getting the results you hoped for, you may want to reach out to a professional dermatologist to get a stronger glycolic acid peel.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Start with a glycolic acid product with 10% concentration or less. Use a product designed for what you want to treat. Use the glycolic acid in the evening if possible. Read any instructions carefully before starting. Make sure your face is clean and not greasy. Apply a little petroleum jelly around your eyes, mouth and nostrils. Fill a bowl with water for neutralizing the glycolic acid when you’re done. Pour some glycolic acid solution into a glass cup to check for crystals. Apply the glycolic acid solution with a cotton swab or brush. Wait 3-5 minutes or until the treated area turns red. Rinse the treated area with water or a neutralizing solution. Repeat every 2 weeks for 4-6 months.

Q: Preparing your kitchen and home for a child with a newly diagnosed food allergy can seem overwhelming.  Take time to clean out the kitchen of any foods that are unsafe for your child.  Take a weekend to spend cleaning out and reorganizing your pantry, refrigerator, freezer and any other spots you store foods.  This may take more than a day to get everything set up. Remove all foods that contain the allergen.  You'll need to read labels and ingredient lists to ensure all potentially hazardous foods have been removed. You can choose to donate or trash these "unsafe" foods if you desire.  Many times, unopened items can be donated to food banks. Consider having your child help you.  He should not touch or come into contact with these foods; however, it will be good practice to have him read labels and identify potentially unsafe items. In addition to removing unsafe foods from your house, it's important to minimize "cross contamination."  Make sure to wash and sanitize all items in your house.  Cross contamination is when allergens from unsafe foods come into contact with cookware or flatware that is supposed to be "allergen-free."  For example, if you use a knife to spread peanut butter on your bagel, but use the same knife (even wiped off) to spread jelly on your child's bread, you have cross-contaminated your child's meal with peanut allergens. All dishes and utensils need to be washed and thoroughly rinsed in hot soapy water.  In addition, rinse off dishes that have food residue on them prior to putting them in a dishwasher.  You may also want to consider labeling some flatware and cookware as "allergen-free" and only use these items to prepare and serve allergen-free foods.  Also wash these separate from other kitchen items. If your child has a food allergy, it can be difficult to limit items in your house.  This is especially true if you have other children in the home with you.  If you need to include foods in your home that contain an allergen one child has, consider labeling your foods as either "safe" or "unsafe."  This allows the child with the allergen to clearly see what products they can consume without worry. You can put green labels on "safe foods" and red labels on "unsafe foods" or create your own labeling system.  Although this can be an easy system to follow, still teach your kids to read labels and investigate foods — especially when they're outside the home. Another easy and somewhat common method of cross contamination is food, crumbs, and leftovers eaten in other rooms.  Keeping foods and eating contained to one room can help prevent this.  It's common for families to snack in front of the TV, eat in the car, or carry food to their bedrooms.  However, this exposes an allergic child to many more opportunities for an allergic reaction. Limit food storage, preparation and consumption to only the kitchen and/or dining room.  Do not allow other children or yourself take foods into other areas of the house. This can help children feel safe at home and not have to worry about unknowingly coming into contact with their allergen. Cooking and food preparation is a common time where cross contamination can happen.  Take care when preparing foods for an allergic child to avoid this situation.  Consider using specialty cookware, flatware and storage containers when preparing your child's meals or take away meals.  This can help prevent cross contamination. If you're preparing both "safe" and "unsafe" meals or foods, prepare "safe" foods first.  This allows you to know that no cross contamination has happened since you haven't prepared any foods yet with the allergen.
A:
Clean out your kitchen. Wash and sanitize all cookware and flatware. Consider labeling foods "safe" or "unsafe". Keep foods contained to one room. Take extra precautions when cooking.
