Q: Hair relaxers work by treating your hair with an alkaline agent that breaks down the hair follicle to straighten it. This treatment is effective and permanent. The downside is that it can also be pricey, and the chemicals can cause long-term damage to your hair and even your skin.  Do research to make sure you go to a good salon to get your hair relaxed. Strong chemicals in the wrong hands can wreak havoc on your hair. Don't get a straightening treatment done on freshly washed hair. Go several days without washing first so your hair has some natural protection from the chemicals. You can also get a texturizing treatment, which is similar to a relaxing treatment but with less severe chemicals and a softer, wavier effect. Keratin treatments last about 6 weeks, after which they wash out. They leave the hair looking straight and sleek, but some treatments contain formaldehyde. If you're worried about using chemicals on your hair and skin, skip this one. In recent years this technique has become more popular. It's a sulfer-based treatment that is said to be less harsh on the hair, with permanent effects. If you're interested in this treatment, be sure to go to an experienced beautician.
A: Get a hair relaxing treatment. Try a keratin treatment. Consider Japanese hair straightening.

Article: If you got assigned a simple worksheet for French class or a few easy math problems for Geometry, lay that work over your notes. Do your homework inconspicuously and quickly, and remember to look up sometimes to make it look like you're taking notes for class. If you're worried about having your homework confiscated, ask your teacher if it's okay to do the homework in their class. Some teachers might only allow this if you've already finished the lesson or work for their class that day. If you have a lot going on in your classes, use boring class time to write a list of things you need to do to clear your mind. Try making a timeline of things to do for an upcoming project or a study schedule for your exams. You can make different lists for each of your classes or just make one longer list for all of your classes and activities.  Making lists can encourage creativity and help get rid of anxiety about upcoming assignments or tests. Keep in mind that you can make lists about pretty much anything. If you want to make a list about your top 10 favorite movies or books, you can! If you feel like you've taken a million notes and just can't pay attention anymore, go back through and review your notes. Highlight important parts, underline information you need to know for a test, and draw pictures of important figures and ideas. When you look back over your notes to study, your doodles and markings can help you remember the information.  This will keep you entertained and engaged with the lesson so you're still doing a bit of studying! You can also draw geometric patterns, circles, or even random shapes in the margins of your notes. Most teachers won't mind a little doodling since it keeps you occupied and you don't disturb the class. Come up with a story about your favorite fictional character, your favorite celebrity, or even yourself! Keep your pen or pencil on the paper and let your thoughts roam free to write a short story. Remember to look up occasionally so that your teacher thinks you're writing notes for class.

Problem: Article: Before you make your motion, you must be recognized and allowed to speak by the presiding officer. The protocol varies among groups, but generally you will wait until the presiding officer asks for motions and then either stand or raise your hand. Generally the presiding officer will open the floor to motions by asking "Is there any new business?" When the presiding officer is ready to hear your motion, they'll point to you or address you by name and let you know that you have the floor. Depending on the procedural conventions of your group, you may stand at your seat or move to the front of the room. In smaller, more informal groups, such as where people are seated around a single table, you may not need to stand or move at all. When the presiding officer recognizes you, address them by their formal title (typically "Chair" or "President"). If you're unsure of their official title, listen to what they use when they recognize you. They typically will refer to themselves in the third person (for example, "The Chair recognizes Mr. Malarky").  After the official title, refer to the presiding officer as either "Mr." or "Madam," whichever they prefer. Start by saying "I would like to propose a motion." In some groups it may be customary for the presiding officer to acknowledge your purpose and give you permission to continue. In others, you may simply continue stating your motion. Depending on the rules or customs of your group, you may need to describe the type of motion you want to make here. Once you are cleared to proceed, begin by saying "I move" and then state the action that you want the board to take. If you've written your motion, you can read directly from your written document.  Your motion should always be stated affirmatively. Tell the board what you think it should do, not what it should not do. For example, you might say "I move that the Board cancels the contract with ABC Landscaping and instead hires XYZ Landscaping." Most motions must be seconded by another member of the board. This helps ensure that the board doesn't spend meeting time considering a motion that is only important to one person.  The presiding officer typically will ask if anyone seconds the motion. Someone will stand or raise their hand and say "I second the motion" or simply "I second." In most groups it is commonplace for you to already have a second lined up. Talk to others in the group before the board meeting and tell them about your motion. Find out if someone is willing to second it.
Summary: Stand or raise your hand. Wait to be recognized. State your purpose. Introduce your motion. Wait for someone to second your motion.

Q: It is a good idea to complete a weekly, or bi-weekly, water change on a consistent basis. Again, you will not remove all of the water each time, only 25-30%. If you see the need, you can also do a deep cleaning of your tank on a monthly basis. You must balance out a desire to keep your tank clean with the health of your fish. Too frequent, or too few, cleanings can adversely impact their health. Performing partial changes is also an excellent way to re-establish stability in your tank after an unusual event, such as a re-scaping or a chemical overdose. Don’t be afraid to do an unscheduled water change in these cases as the reward is worth it. If you run your aquarium lights all day and every day, you will likely see a quick, aggressive accumulation of algae and debris. This is because the light is helping the algae to feed off of your tank. Instead, try keeping your lights on for 10-14 hours for tanks with live plants or 6-10 hours otherwise. Much of the debris that you siphon out of the gravel will be leftover food. To avoid this issue, resist the desire to overfeed and instead stick with a once or twice daily schedule. And, adjust your feeding practices depending on how well your fish eat what is offered.
A:
Schedule weekly partial water changes. ”Reset” your tank with water changes. Limit your light usage. Avoid overfeeding.
