Problem: Article: Use a water plant fertilizer or any solid pellet or tablet fertilizer that is safe to use around vegetables. Just remove your plant from the pond, scrape back the layer of gravel on top, and bury the fertilizer in the pot of your plant. Return the gravel layer and place your plant back into the pond. Look for organic fertilizers to avoid introducing industrial chemicals into your edible garden. Find a small pond pump or fountain at a local garden center or online and place it in your pond. A basic fountain assembly consists of a simple pump that sits on or near the bottom of the pond and contains tubing that can extend up to the surface. When connected to a power source, the pump helps circulate the water, mixing it with air.  Mosquitoes lay eggs and grow larvae in standing water and algae grows, depriving your pond of oxygen. A basic pond pump or fountain makes your pond less attractive to mosquitos and keeps the water oxygenated. Solar-powered fountains can be a great and simple way to add movement to your water garden without having to worry about plugging it into an electrical outlet. Adding a running water element can enhance the look and sound of your garden. The addition of a bacteria called "Bacillus thuringiensis," subspecies "israelensis," or Bti, to your pond water will keep mosquito larva from maturing into biting adults. This bacteria produces a larvicide that occurs naturally in the soil, but when applied to standing water will break the mosquito’s lifecycle.  This bacteria and the toxin it produces are considered harmless for wildlife and humans and can be purchased in commercial forms from local garden centers or online. The standard commercial product available in most garden centers will treat up to 100 square feet (9.3 m2) of surface area for 30 days.
Summary: Fertilize your plants every 3-6 months. Install a fountain to aerate your pond. Add helpful bacteria to control mosquitos once a month.

Problem: Article: Keep the wedding party separate from the guests for 1 hour at the beginning of the reception. For a traditional Italian wedding, this is called cocktail hour and, as the name suggests, guests are served cocktails in preparation for the wedding party to arrive. After cocktail hour, the guests should gather in the reception area, clearing a path down the center for the bridal party. As the bride and groom enter the reception, they are announced as husband and wife. The band of choice should be able to play traditional Italian wedding songs. An abundance of flowers and ribbons is customary for Italian weddings. The first dance in a traditional Italian wedding belongs to the bride and groom, and is followed by formal dances involving different members of the bridal party. After the formal dances, the guests are invited to join in. Each member of the wedding party, and anyone else who volunteers, may choose to give a speech in honor of the newly married couple. Champagne, cocktails and sweet liquors are served to both the bridal party and the guests during this time, which may be a relatively lengthy part of the ceremony. Italian weddings place a great emphasis on the reception meal, which may be served in as many as 14 courses. Customary choices include:  Antipasto. This first-course dish traditionally includes Italian delicacies such as prosciutto, olives, stuffed mushrooms, pickled peppers, salami and calamari. Italian wedding soup. Pastas, breads, meats, fruits, salads and cheeses. Symbolic wedding foods. Powdered sugar-coated dough twists, called Wanda, are served to bring good tidings to the bride and groom, and sugared almond Italian candy is served to symbolize the bitter and the sweet of a marriage. Beverages. Wine and coffee are customary, in addition to more conventional mealtime beverages like water, milk, tea and juice. Desserts. A variety of desserts are served, including pastries, cakes, candies, fruits and wedding cake. The words "evviva gli sposi," meaning "long live the newlyweds," is traditionally exclaimed throughout the reception as wine glasses are raised in celebration.
Summary: Hold a cocktail hour. Stage an entrance. Hire a band. Decorate according to Italian tradition. Dance. Orchestrate speeches. Serve Italian cuisine. Toast in Italian tradition.

Problem: Article: Let your stubble grow to the point of being a short beard. As with a regular haircut, you can always take more off, but you can’t put back what is no longer attached. Grow your beard to a length that you know is slightly longer than you’d ever want to keep your stubble. How long this will take depends entirely on your particular beard growth. For some men this may take three or four days while for others it could be over a week. Start with a slightly longer setting on your trimmer such as a 4. This will take all of your hair down to an even length. Especially for men with dark, thick beards, this setting will probably be too scruffy for the look they want, but it works for some—think Hugh Jackman. Once you have an even length to work with, begin trimming your stubble down in increments to find the right length for you. The length you decide on will ultimately depend on your hair density, hair color, and how clean of a designer stubble look you want.  Remember that you may also choose to keep the stubble on different parts of your face at different lengths to achieve a cleaner look. You may decide that the best look for you is using a 3 setting along your jaw and moustache but a 2 setting on your cheeks to create a more blended look that fades rather than ends dramatically.  Don’t worry if taking the length down makes spots like your cheeks feel patchy. Some men such as Ryan Gosling rock the designer stubble look with barely any hair extending onto their cheeks. You’ll clean up those patchy spots in the next step. Once you have the length of your stubble where you want it, you can take care of stray hairs or asymmetrical spots by cleaning up around the edges. For this, you can take the setting guard off your trimmer to use it as a set of electric clippers, or you can use a plain old safety razor. Common areas to clean up while edging include the sparse hairs some men get high up on their cheek bones or upper lip hairs that might take away from the definition one wants in his moustache.
Summary:
Stop shaving. Use a long setting on your hair trimmer. Shorten in increments. Clean the edges.
