Problem: Article: A dropperful is the amount that fills one dropper. It is roughly equal to 30 drops. Your dosage may vary based on the type of tincture you are using. Read the label of your tincture for more specific information about dosing. In general, you can take up to 3 doses of tincture a day. Talk to your doctor or herbalist to find the right dosing schedule for you. Children under 12 will generally receive their dose by drops, not by dropperfuls. Children can usually receive 2 or 3 doses a day. Children's doses are generally as follows:  12 to 18 months: 7 drops 18 to 24 months: 8 drops 2 to 3 years: 10 drops 3 to 4 years: 12 drops 4 to 6 years: 15 drops 6 to 9 years: 24 drops 9 to 12 years: 30 drops (or 1 dropperful) This will ensure that it is safe for your baby to take tinctures. Some people recommend that breastfeeding mothers take the tincture for their baby, as the benefits may pass from the mother to the baby. If you are breastfeeding, talk to your doctor before you take a tincture. Tinctures can have a strong and bitter taste. While diluting the tincture is not necessary, it can help make it taste better. Squeeze your dose of the tincture into a bowl with about 1–2 ounces (28–57 g) of water or juice. You can also use a few drops of lemon or honey. Mix them together before squeezing it back into the dropper. Do not give honey to children under a year old.
Summary: Take 2 dropperfuls for adults and children over 12. Determine a child's dose based on age. Talk to your doctor before giving a tincture to a child under a year old. Dilute the tincture if you cannot handle the taste.

Problem: Article: You want the slices to be thin, about ¼ inch (0.64 centimeter) thick. Plan on having another extra banana so that you can slice it up and use it to decorate the pie with. Do not pre-slice this "decorating" banana, however, or it will turn brown. To get the most out of your sliced bananas, place the slices down flat, one by one. Don't just dump them all in. This will give you a 2-layer pie. If you want a 3-layer pie, fill the bottom of crust part way with the pie filling first. Spread a thin layer of sliced bananas on top of the mixture. Fill the crust the rest of the way with the remaining pie pilling. You may need to use a spoon or spatula to help guide the filling into the crust. Keep adding the filling until it just reaches the top of the crust. If you run out of pie filling, don't fret. You can always top the pie off with more sliced bananas and whipped cream. The plastic wrap will keep the pie from forming a "skin" on top. This will give the pie filling enough time to set into a thick, pudding or custard like consistency. Make "stars" with whipped cream all around the edge of the pie. Slice up a banana, and arrange the slices in a flower shape in the center of the pie. Finish off with a swirl of whipped cream in the middle of the banana flower. You can make the little star shapes using a piping bag filled with whipped cream and fitted with a spiky decorators tip. You can also just use the kind of whipped cream that comes i a can with a nozzle. The pie will still taste just as good the next day, but the bananas may turn brown.
Summary: Peel and slice up 2 bananas. Fill the bottom of the pie crust the with sliced bananas. Fill the crust with the pie filling. Place a sheet of plastic wrap over the filling. Refrigerate the pie 3 to 6 hours, then remove the plastic wrap. Decorate the pie with whipped cream and a few banana slices before serving. Serve the pie immediately.

Problem: Article: Today, the vast majority of accounting jobs require at least a bachelor's degree in accounting or a related field. If you don't have a degree in accounting and want this to be your career, you should strongly consider one.  Some bookkeeping jobs and other entry level positions can be obtained with a two-year degree or even just a high school diploma, if you show a high aptitude for math. These jobs tend to be relatively low-paying, however.  Some employers will be looking for a candidate with a master's degree in accounting or business administration. Some schools offer a five-year combined BA/MA program, and a program like this might be worth considering if you don't already have a degree. While you are in school, join your campus chapter of Beta Alph Psi, if there is one. This is the premiere honor and service society for aspiring accountants and other business information students. Joining Beta Alpha Psi will look great on your resume, because it shows genuine interest in the field. It's also a good way to network with others in the field--you never know when a connection can come in handy. A degree is very valuable, but having knowledge and experience is just as important as a diploma. Take every chance you get to learn about and get experience in the field.  Volunteer to help with accounting in your community, for your church, a local charity organization, or anyone else who can use your services. This gives you hands-on experience that will help you stand apart from other applicants. By the same token, learn everything you can related to business and accounting. Familiarize yourself with a range of software tools used in accounting, such as Quickbooks. Learn about business models, and how companies make profits.
