Wait about 30 seconds to a minute before continuing with the trick.  This helps build the illusion that you actually have something to do with the cards being drawn to each other. This is the only real physical gesture you will make during this trick.  Try to have as little to do physically with the trick as possible.  This will strengthen the notion that you really performed the illusion.

Q: For most cacti species, you will need to repot the plant once its roots begin to show through the drainage holes of your pot or once the crown of the cactus reaches the edge of the pot.  This will usually occur every two to four years.  Repot your cactus during the dry season, usually in late winter or early spring. Roots may break during the process, and moisture can cause those broken roots to rot. Slip on thick leather gloves. The material must be thick so that it can help protect you against the prickly spines of the plant. Gloves alone may not be enough to protect your skin, but even if you take other protective measures, you should still include thick gloves among them. Run a dull knife around the inside perimeter of the pot, using a sawing motion to help break up the soil there. Continue as needed until the soil starts coming up as a solid mass.  If you have a plastic pot, you could also try squeezing the sides of the pot to loosen the soil there. Tap along the sides of the pot with a dull knife to help loosen the soil, as well. The soil surrounding the root mass should be completely loosened before you remove the cactus. Otherwise, you could end up damaging the plant. Stack a few sheets of newspaper together and fold them in thirds to create a thick, sturdy strip. Wrap this strip around your cactus. Carefully grab this strip, pressing it against the cactus as you work, and lift both the strip and cactus up and out of the pot. Alternatively, you could skip the newspaper and use an old pair of barbecue tongs to lift the cactus out. The idea is simply to keep your skin as far away from the spines of the cactus as possible.
A: Know when to repot. Put on gloves. Loosen the soil. Lift the cactus out with newspaper.

Article: Place two fingers (your index and middle fingers) on your neck in the space between your windpipe on the front and the big muscle on the side of your neck, called the sternocleidomastoid. This is your carotid artery, and it is usually the easiest place to check your heart beat. Press lightly until you feel a pulse.  Alternatively, you can place two fingers on the outer part of your inner wrist, just under where your thumb and palm curve into your wrist. This is called your radial pulse, which may be fainter or more difficult to find. You can also find your pulse by placing two fingers on the side of your wrist below your pinky finger. This is called your ulnar pulse and is usually even more faint than the radial. Do not use your thumb, as you may feel a slight pulse from the finger itself. This can mess up your readings. For a normal adult, including seniors, the average resting heart rate falls somewhere between 60 and 100 beats per minute. If your resting heart rate is consistently above 100 beats/minute, you may want to contact your doctor. If your resting heart rate is usually under 60 (and you are not a trained athlete), you should consider consulting with your doctor – especially if you ever feel faint, dizzy, or short of breath. For children under the age of ten, the average heart rate is around 75-115 beats per minute.

Find your pulse. Analyze the results.

Problem: Article: Never use cold water, ice baths, or rubbing alcohol. A fever must be brought down gradually, and these methods will reduce body temperature too rapidly and may cause additional health problems. Moreover, rubbing alcohol comes with the additional risk of alcohol poisoning, which may occur if the alcohol is absorbed through the skin. Make sure your baby is dressed in lightweight fabrics, and keep layers to a minimum. Extra layers will likely trap the excess body heat produced by your baby's fever, causing your baby to stay too warm and encouraging the fever to continue rising. If your baby starts to shiver, however, you may need to add an extra layer to prevent him or her from catching a chill. A little dampness may not cause much damage, but a thoroughly drenched garment may cause your baby to catch a chill, which will only complicate your child's illness. Shivering is a tell-tale sign that your child needs additional coverage to stay warm. Blankets make a good choice because they are easier to remove and adjust than clothing. Never use heavy-weight blankets, however, since these will only cause your infant's body temperature to increase. It is a good sign if your child is still interested in playing, but too much physical activity will only cause the body’s internal temperature to continue climbing. Keep your baby indoors and relatively sedate. Preventing dehydration is an important part of fighting a fever. Infants under six months of age should only receive breast milk or formula, but you may consider supplementing this with small amounts of water, natural fruit juice, or gelatin and popsicles made with natural fruit juice to babies over six months.
Summary: Bathe or sponge your child with lukewarm water. Change your baby's clothing. Remove any clothing once it becomes soaked with sweat. Cover your infant with a lightweight blanket if he or she gets cold. Decrease your baby’s level of activity. Give your infant extra fluids.

Article: It will be easier to tie your knit tie when your collar is popped up. If your collar buttons to your shirt at the tips, undo the buttons so you can lift it up. Re-button the tips once your tie is on. It’s traditional to wear a tie with the top button on your shirt buttoned. Having it buttoned will also keep your collar from getting in the way when you’re tying your tie. Make sure the top side of the tie is facing out. The left end of the tie should hang on one side of your chest, with the right end of the tie on the other side. The lower the left end of your tie hangs, the longer your tie will be once it’s tied. When your knit tie is tied around your neck, the left end should hang at the same level as your belt. If you tie your knit tie and the left end falls above or below your belt, undo the knot you made and readjust the length.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Lift up your shirt collar. Button the top button on your shirt. Lay your knit tie around your neck so it’s underneath your collar. Adjust your tie so the left end hangs lower than the right end.
