Problem: Article: You can make it simple by simply wadding up some paper for the cat to bat around. There are many ideas for making basic cat toys. However, you can also get some tools and build a toy that involves all the bells and whistles of a store-bought toy. Some toys allow a cat to bat around balls in tubes or on towers. There are even some toys that play the laser game with the cat. Cats love to follow movement, and these kinds of toys will help keep them from getting bored. There also toys that mimic the movements of cat's natural play that will help keep the cat entertained. You don’t want to come home to a vet emergency because your cat has swallowed something that will make it sick. Providing safe toys will help dissuade cats from going for more dangerous items, but the best bet is to secure unsafe items away from the cat’s reach. Your best bet is to check any warnings on the packaging to see if they recommend against unsupervised play. In addition to allowing for movement, this allows the cat to control the motion, unlike with a laser toy or a toy that constricts the movement to a specific space. The cat can bat toy mice or little balls across the room and then chase them. It also helps if some of the toys are ones that cat can carry. This will help the cat live out its natural prey drive, and keep it entertained when it's home alone. Some toys are designed to challenge a cat before dispensing a treat. This will give the cat something to work out while you're gone, and give it a nice treat, too. This helps the cat work its mind and body.
Summary: Make your own toy. Choose a toy that involves movement. Avoid toys that have pieces a cat could swallow while you’re gone. Find a toy that a cat can hit with their paws. Choose an interactive toy with treats.

Problem: Article: When your nail is completely dry, paint your nails like you would regularly. Try to keep the layer of the polish on the split nail light, as you already have three layers of polish on the nail, and it will take longer to thoroughly dry.

Problem: Article: Answer the phone and find out if you owe money or not, what you can do to pay the money back while stifling collection calls, or even if it is just a mistake. Only after you completely understand the reason for the collection calls should you put an end to them. Ignoring legitimate collection calls won't stop them. The creditors have a legal right to collect the debt. Not paying money to collection agencies when it is due can have adverse effects on your credit score. Sometimes, you might forget that you owe money to a credit card company, a credit union, or your bank. If you don't answer the phone, you may not realize that you have unpaid debt before it's reported. Oftentimes, collection agencies mix people up.  People with common names like John Smith or Sarah Jones often receive collection calls meant for others by the same name. Sometimes, debt collectors will call all the people in a given area with the same last name, looking for the individual or family members.  Be aware of the concept of "phantom" or "zombie" debt. This is debt that you do not legally owe, but an unscrupulous collection agency is still attempting to collect. Phantom debt refers to a settled debt that a collection agency continues to try to collect. If you do not pay the phantom debt, the agency has no recourse against you. But once you make a payment, the money won't be refunded, and you have little if any recourse against the agency. Collectors often threaten legal action in the hopes of collecting debt faster. Debt is a civil matter and cannot be used to file criminal charges. The only way not paying a debt can be considered a crime is if the original sum was obtained under false pretenses, such as by identity theft, forgery, or other misrepresentation. Under the Federal FDCPA, a collector is not allowed to make any kind of threat or use abusive language. Tell the debt collector this. If it is a rogue collector or a fraud, most likely they'll be scared off. Being in debt can be embarrassing. Most people are not willing to have their family or friends know that they have fallen behind. State and Federal laws also do not allow debt collectors to talk about your debt to other people except your lawyer or with your permission. Lawyers love having recordings. If the collector has been using vulgar methods to intimidate you, start recording. Inform the collector at the beginning that you are taping the call as evidence for filing a formal, legal complaint with the State Attorney General and the Federal Trade Commission. If your telephone has a speaker option, use a regular tape recorder to record the conversation. Most cell phones today have recording apps or built-in recording features. Do not lie and pretend to be another person. Don't pretend to be dead or to have moved. To do so is fraud under federal law. Collection agencies and investigators can easily determine if such a statement is false. Since collection calls are often recorded, your lie will be recorded as well.
Summary: Don't ignore debt collectors. Beware of rogue and illegal debt collecting practices. Know your rights. Record the phone conversation. Don't commit fraud.

Problem: Article: Changing the partitions on your USB drive will erase all of the data on it, so make sure everything important is saved to another location. This guide will use Ubuntu, which comes with GParted Partition Editor already installed. If your Linux distribution doesn't have GParted installed, you can install it from gparted.org/ or your distribution's package manager. In Ubuntu, open the Dash and type "gparted," or click "System" → "Administration" → "GParted Partition Editor." You can identify your USB drive by the size. Make sure you don't proceed with your hard drive selected, or you could lose all of your data. Right-click the visual display of the USB drive and select "Unmount" to deactivate it and prepare it for partitioning. This will delete the current partition on the USB drive. This will open the "Create new Partition" window. Use the slider or the text fields to set the size of your first partition. Make sure to leave enough space for additional partitions. The partition labels will be the easiest way to differentiate between your partitions. If you intend to use the drive with just Linux, select "ext2." If you want to boot Windows from the first partition select "ntfs" (this will only work on the first partition on the drive). To use the partition for general storage between different computers, select "fat32" or "exfat." This will create the new partition from the unallocated space. You can continue to create new partitions from the unallocated space that remains after creating the other partitions. Click "Apply" to confirm. All of your changes will be applied to the USB drive. This may take a little while to complete. You'll be able to access all of the partitions as if they were individual USB drives.
Summary:
Back up any important data on the USB drive. Launch GParted Partition Editor. Select your USB drive from the menu in the upper-right corner. Right-click on the display and select "Unmount." Right-click on the display and select "Delete." Right-click on the display again (it will say "Unallocated") and select "New." Set the size of your first partition. Give the partition a label. Set the file system. Click "Add." Repeat the process for additional partitions by right-clicking the remaining unallocated space. Click the green checkmark button in GParted when you're finished configuring. Access your new partitions.
