Problem: Article: As with men, black and grey are more formal, making for a safer bet. Avoid low-cut dresses or those with high slits. Avoid dresses (especially) and skirts that are more skin-tight. No sundresses. No jeans, unless otherwise noted. If jeans are allowed by your employer, distressed jeans, jeans with holes, and "boyfriend" jeans are not desirable choices. Neutral colors are best. Women have a few more options in this department than the men. Opt for conservative and not too revealing. Blouses, plain shirts, cotton shirts, sweaters, turtlenecks, vests, and sleeveless shirts are all acceptable.  Tucked-in or untucked can both go, depending on the shirt. Unusual patterns are acceptable, as long as they are not wild. The standard, however, is a monotone shirt. Use a collar for a more formal look, and collarless shirts for a less formal look. Avoid flip flops, sandals and sneakers. Heels are okay, so long as they aren't too conspicuous. Remember dress socks or pantyhose (with skirts or dresses) and tastefully accessorize with light jewelry and a simple purse. Ask yourself the following set of questions if you're still not sure whether your outfit is acceptable.   Would I wear this clubbing? The answer should be 'no.'  Would I wear this to sleep? The answer should be 'no.'  Would I wear this to do yard work? The answer should be 'no.'  Would I wear this to a costume party? The answer should be 'no.'
Summary: Remember that skirts and dresses are acceptable as long as the hem falls just above the knees. Opt for pants such as khakis, corduroy pants, linen pants or dress pants. Choose from a variety of shirts. Try footwear such as leather shoes, flat trouser shoes, high heels; no open toed shoes. Complete the business casual look. Check the list.

Problem: Article: Fleas can live for days or even weeks in carpeting and pet bedding. Wash all bedding and linens your pet has touched with hot water, and dry them using the hot cycle. You should do this a few times as you are fighting the infestation.  This is so your pet doesn't get re-infested with fleas from her environment as you are working on getting rid of them. You should wash any other materials that your pet has come into contact with, including blankets and pillows. Just like your pet's bedding, fleas and ticks can live in carpet for a long time. Fleas lay eggs on your pet and then the eggs drop off their skin into the carpet and other fabrics in your pet's environment. In order to keep the fleas from hatching, you need to get rid of the flea eggs and any fleas that may be in your carpet. To do this, vacuum your house extremely well. Make sure you vacuum off upholstery and fabric, crevices in your furniture, corners of the room, and any place that your pet has been. Once you vacuum and launder all washable materials, you can make a spray similar to your bathing solution to spray on your carpet and pet bedding to help get rid of the fleas. To make this solution, combine a gallon of ACV, 1/2 gallon of water, 16 ounces of lemon juice, and 8 ounces (230 g) of witch hazel in a large tub. Fill a large spray bottle with the solution. Spray every portion of your house, including carpets, wood floors, crevices and corners, windowsills, and furniture in a thick coating of the spray.  You may need to repeat this method for 2-7 days depending on how bad your flea infestation is. If you are just trying to prevent infestation, you can do this once a month.  Let the spray dry before you return objects to the wet areas. If you don't have a really bad flea problem but want to catch any fleas that might be lurking in your home, you can try a flea trap. Position a few night lights around the room in outlets close to the floor. Under each light, place a dish of water that has cap full of dish soap poured into it.  Check the dish every morning for dead fleas. Throw out the fleas and fill the dish with fresh soapy water every night. You can use this method to check how well the natural spray is working. Once there are no more fleas in the dish, you can stop the spray treatments. You can use tea light candles for this method as well, but you have to be around the flea trap all night so you don't risk the possibility of a fire.
Summary: Clean your pet's bedding. Eradicate fleas in your home. Make a natural spray. Make a flea trap.

Problem: Article: Making a sound on a trumpet requires more than just blowing air into it. Use the proper lip technique for the best tone. Start by saying the letter M, and holding your lips together right when they touch each other. Then tighten the corners of your mouth. This is the starting mouth position for trumpet playing.  Don’t pucker your lips. Keep your mouth straight across. Keep your jaw loose and don’t clench your teeth. This buzzing produces the trumpet sound. Use your diaphragm and push air through your lips while keeping them clenched. Produce a buzzing sound as your lips vibrate.  Imagine the noise you’d make if you were imitating a mosquito buzzing. This is the sound you want. Don’t change your lip position like you would when you blow air out. Keep your lips together so they vibrate and buzz. Avoid puffing out your cheeks. Lick your lips first if you’re having trouble getting this sound. It won’t work as well with dry lips. When you’ve gotten comfortable buzzing your lips, get a feel for blowing into the trumpet mouthpiece. Take the mouthpiece and press it against your lips gently. Maintain the same mouth position as before. Then buzz your lips into the mouthpiece.  The mouthpiece won't produce much sound by itself, so don't worry if notes don't sound good yet. The mouthpiece detaches easily. Just twist it loose a bit while pulling gently and it will come right out. Do the same to put it back in. Don't hit it in or it may get stuck.
Summary:
Press your lips together and keep the corners of your mouth tight. Push air through your lips to make a buzzing sound. Blow into the mouthpiece when it’s not in the trumpet.
