Ask for recommendations for the best surgeon you can find. Surgeons who are more meticulous about sealing off leaking blood vessels and the like will help reduce the amount of drainage you have. Talk to your doctor for recommendations, as well as any friends who've had the surgery. You can also look online for reviews. One method of reducing drainage is to have the surgeon "quilt" the skin while performing the surgery. Essentially, the surgeon sews part of the skin flap down so that you don't have as much room in your chest to produce drainage. Ask your surgeon if this is a possibility for you. Electrocautery is when a surgeon seals off a blood vessel or other wound with heat, cauterizing the wound. While this method reduces blood loss, it may increase your chances of having higher amounts of drainage. Ultrasonic dissection may be a better option for sealing off wounds, as it causes less trauma to the body. This medication reduces inflammation, which in turn can reduce drainage. It's generally given through an IV while you're still in the hospital, so ask your doctor if this is an option for you.

Perhaps the simplest of all wind monitoring devices is a tassel or piece of string. Tie a lightweight string or tassel to an object and let it dangle. As the wind blows, the string or tassel will blow right along with it. The wind is blowing in the direction that the tassel points. You can make devices, such as an  anemometer, to measure wind direction. These can be simple homemade devices, or complex precision tools. Either way, the anemometer cups the wind and spins, indicating both the direction and intensity of the wind. A wind sock is a device that has one large opening attached to a pole or base. The opening on the other end is much narrower. As the wind blows through the sock, it will turn to point in the direction that the wind is blowing. A weather vane is designed to point directly into the wind. One side of the weather vane will be a narrow, pointed end (usually resembling the tip of an arrow). The other end is made wider to catch the wind. As the wind blows, you can see the arrow point directly into the wind. You must put the weather vane on a sturdy base or pole.

Make sure it's a safe place where you and your ice cream won't be prone to accidents. Walking around with ice cream might make you spill it or bump into someone. You don't want to waste any ice cream! If the bottom of your cone is leaking, you can regularly suck out the drips from the bottom.  Make sure to lick the edges of your ice cream sandwich, if you are eating one. If you don’t like the melted ice cream, wipe it away with a napkin instead of your tongue. Moving from the top of the ice cream down to the beginning of the cone, lick away the ice cream resting on top of the cone. Then, start nibbling at the cone. With your tongue, gently push down the top of the ice cream so it fills the cone and doesn’t fall out. Move the napkin away from the area you’re eating.  Never start eating from the base of the cone. As you nibble the cone away, more ice cream will appear, so alternate between nibbling the cone and licking the ice cream. When just the tip of the cone is left, you can eat it whole. Some people like to bite their ice cream, but this could cause your teeth to ache. Some people like to spoon the ice cream into their mouth upside down so the ice cream lands directly on their tongue, and others prefer a plastic spoon to a metal once since plastic doesn’t get as cold. Try a few different spoon methods, and see what you like best! For example, ice cream sandwiches will need to be bitten, not just licked. Cones can also be bitten instead of nibbled. Just try to keep the bites small so you don’t get a brain freeze. If you’re really sticky, wash your hands and face in the sink.

While it's not necessary to buy the most expensive cosmetics, read reviews about the product you're considering buying to find out whether it's worth it. In addition to the liner, you will also need a brush that can create the look you want. A thick brush will create thick, dark lines. A thin, angled brush will give you more control and allow you to make finer lines. Look for a brush that has a bit of stiffness to it. Use a gentle cleanser and your favorite moisturizer. You want to ensure your skin is free of dirt and oil so that you have a fresh canvas to work with. Don't use an overly oily moisturizer, or the eyeliner will have trouble adhering to your skin. Don't point the brush perpendicular to your eye so you can't see what you're doing. Instead, hold the brush at an angle so you can see the tip touching your eye and can follow as you work.
