Problem: Article: Winter is the time that will be hardest to help bees that are starving. Start preparing and feeding the syrup recipes in August or September. You can wait until October, but waiting until December is risky. Though you should still attempt to feed the bees rather than allow them to starve. The amount of feed to store for winter is something you should ask your local beekeepers. Use the seasonally mixed syrups for longer term feeding or to boost the life of a new hive. Prepare 2-4 gallons of syrup early so you can start these syrup feedings in May. Introduce this syrup at the start of a new hive. Once the hive is well underway, don’t over feed. Extra feeding should generally be done only when the hive is undersized or starving to begin with. Your batches of syrup may spoil if you’ve prepared much more than the bees need. For example, if you have a hive that is supposed to weigh 150 pounds suddenly weighing 75 pounds, then it may be time to feed.
Summary: Set up supplies for winter first. Mix spring recipes. Feed in times of need.

Problem: Article: It's important to discuss the issue with your partner, as they may not even realize that they always assume you're wrong. You may be inclined to avoid the issue, but that will only continue to drive a wedge between you and your partner. It's best to confront the issue head-on if possible. Plus, if you avoid the problem too long, you may find that you start having bursts of anger at your partner, which puts a strain on your relationship. It can help to take a few moments and think about what you'd actually like to say to your partner. You don't want a typed-out speech, as that will distance you from your partner. However, having a general idea of what you what to say is good, particularly choosing a few phrases that can get your point across without making your partner feel horrible. It can be helpful to give your partner a head's up that you want to have a discussion. That way, your partner won't feel ambushed with what you have to say. Additionally, it gives you both a chance to pick a good time together.  For example, you could say, "I'd like to have a discussion about the way we argue, particularly the way I feel like I always end up being in the wrong. When's a good time for you?" If your situation differs a bit, you could say something like, "I'd like to have a discussion with you about how I feel my opinion is often not valued. When can we talk?" When discussing the problem with your partner, the most effective way to talk about is to use "I" statements. That is, talk about what's wrong starting with "I," focusing on your feelings, rather than starting with "you," which sounds like you're blaming the other person. Using "I" statements is generally more effective at opening a dialogue.  For instance, you might say, "I feel like that most of the time I end up being 'wrong' in an argument or discussion. I get upset because you're insistent that you're correct, and I end up giving up on the issue." Alternatively, you could say, "I feel like you don't respect my opinion or expertise in most situations. It makes me upset to always be in the wrong." On the other hand, "You always think you're right and I'm wrong" isn't a good way to start the conversation. If you go into the discussion planning a monologue, that won't be effective. You have to be able to listen to what the other person has to say, as you are trying to communicate back and forth about a problem, so you both need a chance to be heard.  Your partner may surprise you with what they have to say. For instance, you may find that they feel the same, that you always think they're wrong. Once you realize that you both feel that way, you can work towards having better communication in the future. To get your partner talking, make sure to give them an opening in the conversation. For example, you could say, "Now that I've said my spiel, I want to hear from you. What are you thinking and feeling?" After listening to what your partner says about this particular topic, consider what's  behind the words. How your partner ends up responding could indicate they're willing to work on the issue and the relationship. On the other hand, what they say may indicate your problem runs deeper, and you may want to seek counseling or end the relationship.  For instance, if your partner says, "Well, that's just stupid. You are wrong most of the time," that's not a very supportive or open response. On the other hand, a response such as, "I hadn't realized that I made you feel that way. That is a problem. Let's figure out how we can work together to resolve this issue," is a supportive response that shows they are willing to work with you. From there, you could say, "I'm glad to hear you say that. Here's what I think a good solution would be:" Listen to how your partner responds. If your partner cannot reciprocate the "I" statement or if they start blaming you again, it might be a sign that they are not willing to work it out. Once you've both had your chance to speak, discuss how you can both do better moving ahead. Discuss ways you think could solve the problem, and ask your partner to come up with ways they think the problem could be solved.  For example, maybe you could have a safe word to halt an argument and evaluate who's feeling like the other person is saying they're "wrong." Just stopping in the middle of an argument to evaluate how each of you is feeling can help to bridge the communication gap. Alternatively, you could agree that you'll point out to your partner when you think that they're not valuing your opinion or expertise. If your partner seems receptive to change but you can't figure out how to move forward, consider seeing a professional. Find a counselor in your area who can help you work through your problems. If you're not sure who to see, consider asking close friends if they have any recommendations.
Summary: Confront the issue soon. Think through what you want to say. Pick a time to have the conversation. Use an "I" statement. Listen to what the other person has to say. Gauge your partner's reaction. Work on a solution. Consider counseling.

Problem: Article: If your phone or tablet is infected, you’ll see a pop-up message that demands payment to give you back your data or security. These pop-ups may appear out of the blue, or they may occur when doing a specific action (like pressing the Home button). Ransomware hold your data for ransom until you pay up. If you don’t pay up, data in your phone or tablet will become encrypted, making it inaccessible. Try searching for the message you see in a search engine like Google to find out if other people have had success freeing their data. Even if you pay, there’s no guarantee the ransomware will be removed. In fact, it may just reactivate. Instead, find a way to remove the ransomware from your iPhone or iPad, and be prudent in trying to prevent it in the future.
Summary:
Watch out for pop-up messages. Search for the message online. Do not pay to get your data back.
