Problem: Article: As each seasonal growing season concludes, plant nematode-resistant plants in a section of your garden where nematode-susceptible plants had formerly been planted. This will kill off the nematodes in the soil. Plant rotation will also prevent nematode-susceptible plants from being killed. Alternate susceptible and resistant plants from one growing season to the next.  For example, if you've been growing nematode-susceptible carrots in a row of your garden during the summer, rotate in a nematode-resistant vegetable like cherry tomatoes in the fall. Nematode-resistant plants will not be affected by root-knot nematodes and most other parasite nematodes. Resistant plants include: lima beans, bell peppers, hot peppers, sweet potatoes, and most types of tomatoes. Plants that are susceptible to nematodes include carrots, beets, lettuce, potatoes, and radishes. Rather than removing nematode-susceptible plants from your garden altogether, you can simply move them a few rows over and continue growing them. Relocating susceptible vegetables to a row which formerly grew nematode-resistant vegetables will ensure that nematodes are not already present in the soil. Nematode-resistant veggies aren't the only plans that you can use in your plant-rotation schedule. Certain small grains, grasses, and flowers are resistant to the pests and will kill off nematodes in the soil where they're planted.  For example, plant a row of marigolds in a row which was formerly filled with nematode-susceptible vegetables. Or, plant a row of fescue (a grass species) or small grains like wheat, rye, or barley.
Summary: Alternate nematode-susceptible and -resistant plants from season to season. Move susceptible vegetables to a new location in the garden. Alternate resistant flowers and grasses into the garden.

Problem: Article: Lay on one side of your body with your legs extended out straight, and on top of each other. Place your lower arm’s elbow on the floor, and make sure your elbow is directly underneath your shoulder. Prop and hold your body up on your elbow. From your propped position, place your upper arm’s hand behind your head. Inhale and contract your side abdominal muscles to crunch and bring your upper elbow down toward your side. As you crunch, the lower half of your torso and your hips are going to dip down to the floor. Hold the crunch position for a moment, exhale, then flex your side abdominal muscles again to bring your upper elbow and torso back up to your starting position. As you come back to your starting position, you can extend even further than you started, bringing your elbow back and tilting your head down to the ground. This will give your upper torso a convex curve. Once you have completed one set of side crunches on one side of your body (approximately 10–15 reps), turn over and get into the same starting position as before, with your legs extended and your elbow propping up your body. Complete approximately 1–3 sets of 10–15 reps.
Summary: Lay on the floor. Crunch to your side. Complete the crunch on the other side of your body.

Problem: Article: In theory your fishing net can be made of any string or twine. Think about what species you're trying to catch, and how it's size might affect the strength of the string used.  It’s recommended that you use a bonded nylon string for strength. Of all contemporary twine it is the most durable and reliable. If you don’t have any nylon on hand or are unable to get any, consider practicing with whatever string you might have around. The two essential tools for the net making process will be your shuttle (or netting needle) and gauge (or sizing card). Both shuttle and gauge can be found at your local craft or sporting goods store.  The width of your gauge will determine the size of your finished net’s mesh. The diagonal of each mesh square will be equal to the width of your gauge. The shuttle is the needle with which you will weave the net, and needs to be smaller in width than your gauge so as to pass through the holes made for the mesh. Ideally this will be a table large enough to fit your completed net, laying flat. Though it’s not necessary, it’ll come in handy when trying to rest the net in between steps. What you do need is a nail (or a clamp with the center screw facing upwards) in the edge of table on the far side away from you. This rod will serve as the starting point for your net.
Summary: Choose your string. Have your shuttle and gauge. Set up your net-making area.

Problem: Article: Let him know that you are not interested; say this assertively but without being mean. You do not need to list all of his faults and hurt his feelings. Just be clear that you don't think a relationship (of whatever sort is at stake) will work and that you would prefer it if he leave you alone.  For example, if he keeps trying to get you to go on a date and you want him to stop, you might say "look, I'm sorry but I am not interested in dating you, can you please stop asking?" If the honest reasons may actually hurt the individual (such as if you find him annoying), re-phrase the reason to make it less hurtful. For example, if he asks why you will not date him, instead of saying something along the lines of “I find you annoying” you could say, “our personalities clash and I do not think we get along that well”. This removes the emphasis from his character and places it on the particular dynamic that occurs between the two of you. Empathy leads people to act more prosocially. Let him know that the way he is behaving towards you is making you uncomfortable or scared, and that the experience is unsettling. He may not realize that his attention toward you is making you feel uncomfortable; he may reach the opposite conclusion, that you like his affection and attention. Engage his emotions by telling him how you really feel about his unwanted behavior.  For example, if he still is still pursuing you even though you have said your personalities do not match, you might say "I have told you that I am not interested a number of times and I feel like you aren't listening, which is making me feel uncomfortable and nervous." Do not give him any wiggle room to misinterpret your words. If you do so, he may stick around or give you distance only temporarily. Rather than saying “I’m not interested in dating you right now” close the door entirely by saying “I am not interested in dating you”. In severe cases of unwanted attention, after all other options have failed and you truly feel unsafe, threaten legal action. Be ready to turn him over to the police if he continues. Let him know that you are taking detailed notes about his actions toward you. Keep a record of all of the communications attempts he makes.
Summary:
Be honest. Encourage his empathy. Don’t leave any doors open. Threaten legal action.
