Problem: Article: A mnemonic device is a trick that you can use to help you remember something. Use acrostics, or silly sentences, which start with the first initial of each planet name, to help you remember the order, starting with Mercury and ending with Neptune (Pluto has been changed to a 'dwarf planet' so it doesn't count as an actual planet) (or just until Neptune, if that’s all you need to learn). Some examples are:  My Very Educated Mother Just Served Us Nine My Very Educated Mother Just Showed Us Nine My Very Elderly Mother Just Sat on Uncle Ned Mom Visits Every Monday, Just Stays Until Noon My Very Educated Mother Just Served Us Noodles Mustard Volcanoes Erupt Meaty Juicy Sandwiches Up North Setting the names of the planets to a song may help you remember the order. There are a number of songs that help you recall a basic fact about each planet and help you remember their order. One example is “Planets Song,” which can be downloaded as an audio file from Amazon or iTunes. Search online for other examples, downloadable music files and videos of other planet songs. An acronym is made up of the first initial of each planet’s name. For the planets, an acronym would be: MVEMJSUN. This may be hard to remember until you make the acronym sound like a word by adding necessary vowels here and there. The acronym might sound like “Move-em-jason” if it were spoken out loud.
Summary: Make up a silly sentence. Sing a song. Make up an acronym.

Problem: Article: Think about your personal style icons: people you consider to be the height of style. Whether it's Kanye West, Ralph Lauren, James Dean, or Walt Whitman, try and wonder what they're trying to accomplish with their style. If it is truly "the perfection of a point of view," think what your icon's point of view might've been, and think about what your point of view might be. Whatever it is, let it guide you when you shop and dress. Consider how you'd like others to think of you, or your style. Is it classic? Do you aim to be an iconoclast? Style isn't dressing "well," or "fashionably," it's dressing for your character. There are no style "don'ts" and only really one style "do:" wear what you want, and own it. If you're a high school student, it won't do to clothe yourself as a full English gentleman. If you're a construction worker, you'll need to leave the Armani for the weekend. Tailor your point of view to the life you lead in order to feel as stylish as you look, and to make your style a part of your everyday life. Playing the style peacock only feels as good as your life will allow; it won't feel great wearing your Bruno Maglis if you've got to stand all day as a cashier, for instance. If your school or work maintain a strict dress code, push it to its limits (accepting the risk, of course). In these situations, don't underestimate the power of style-through-detail: make unique choices wherever possible. If you're sporting Gucci, don't act like a boozy frat boy. If you're channeling Kanye West, don't be afraid to loosen your gait and walk with a swagger. If your clothing echoes a certain point of view, allow your behavior to do the same. This is key to feeling stylish, as it completes the personal connection you've drawn between yourself and your outfit. Let your clothes inspire confidence. Do your best to transfer how you feel strutting in the mirror in the morning to how you feel going about your day, realizing that nothing's changed from being in front of that mirror to being at work, or school.
Summary: Have a reference point. Dress to fit your lifestyle. Act your style.

Problem: Article: If there is any residue, you can wash it off with some rubbing alcohol or white vinegar. You could also measure down 1 inch (2.54 centimeters) from the base of the neck, make a mark, then use that mark as your cutting guide. Use a box cutter or craft blade to cut the bottle. Some plastic soda bottles have a molded line. If your bottle is one of those, you can use that line as a cutting guide. Otherwise, cut off 1 to 2 inches (2.54 to 5.08 centimeters) off of the bottom of your bottle. If you'd like, you can make the bottom smoother by pressing a hot iron against it for 15 to 20 seconds. Don't do this for the top hole, or the plastic bags may get caught. Use the highest setting on your iron. Your holder is almost complete, but you can make it look nicer (and less like a plastic bottle) by spray painting it or by covering it with scrapbooking paper. Attach the scrapbooking paper with double-sided tape. This is now the top of your plastic bag holder. Alternatively, you can also punch just one hole, thread a short piece of ribbon through it, then tie the ribbon into a loop. Pull the plastic bags out, one at a time, from the bottom hole. Refill the bag by stuffing more plastic bags through the top hole.
Summary: Clean a plastic, 2-liter soda bottle, then peel off the label. Cut off the top portion of the bottle so that you have a 2-inch (5.08-centimeter) wide opening. Cut the bottom off of the plastic bottle. Use a pair of scissors to trim away ragged edges on the top and bottom. Paint or decorate the bottle, if desired. Punch two holes on both sides of the cut bottom edge, and thread a ribbon through them. Use the plastic bag holder.

Problem: Article: Place the butter in a large, heavy skillet and set the pan on the stove over medium-high heat.  Once the butter completely melts, turn the pan to coat the bottom. If desired, you could use canola oil instead of butter. Allow the oil to heat for 30 to 60 seconds, or until it starts shimmering, before turning the pan and coating the bottom. Add the corn kernels to the hot butter in the skillet. Cook, stirring and tossing occasionally, until it becomes lightly and evenly charred.  If using frozen corn, thaw it before adding the corn to the pan. For a fresher alternative, you could use a large, smooth knife to slice the kernels off four or five fresh cobs. The exact amount of cooking time will vary depending on how often you stir the corn and how charred you prefer it. If you toss the corn infrequently, the process should take 6 to 10 minutes. If you stir it frequently, the process may take 15 to 20 minutes. Add the minced garlic and minced jalapeño to the skillet. Stir to incorporate the new ingredients into the corn, then cook for another 30 to 60 seconds.  If you don't wish to use jalapeño, try using a red chile pepper or other small hot pepper. Regardless of the variety you choose, however, you should still remove the seeds and mince the pepper before adding it.  When ready, the pepper and garlic should both seem lightly toasted and more fragrant. Remove the corn from the heat and transfer the mixture to a large mixing bowl. Add the cheese, mayonnaise, cilantro, chili pepper, and lime juice to the bowl, as well. Toss well to combine.  Cotija cheese is the most convention choice, but crumbled Feta cheese would be a good substitute. You could also use grated Romano or grated Parmesan cheese. Adjust the seasonings as needed to match your personal sense of taste. For an interesting variation, you could also mix in other complementary seasonings and ingredients, like salt, green onion, and avocado. Allow the corn mixture to cool slightly, then enjoy it while it's slightly warm to room temperature. Serve with additional cotija cheese or wedges of lime, if desired.
Summary:
Melt the butter. Lightly char the corn. Add the garlic and jalapeño. Toss the corn with the remaining ingredients. Serve warm or at room temperature.
