Problem: Article: If your windows have screens of storm windows on them, open them as well.  If you have to remove the screens, place them somewhere close by the window so they do not get misplaced or mismatched to a different window later.  Raise the curtains or blinds so the bee can exit. If the sun has set and you have a light directly outside the window, you can turn it on and turn off the lights of the room the bee is in.  When the bee leaves to hover by the light outside, close the window behind it. If you have an additional screen door which has a spring-loaded latch on it which causes it to close automatically, use the small locking latch near the hinge of the spring mechanism to hold your door open.  If you have a security door, you can leave it closed, assuming there is no screen on it.  If there is a screen on it, open it as well. If you have sliding glass doors, remove any curtains concealing them so the bee can see the world outside.  When you notice it bump up against the door, carefully open it to let the bee out. With the doors and windows open, the bee will seek a way to return to its hive and explore nearby flowers.  While waiting for the bee to make its exit, keep and eye on your doors and windows to ensure birds and other wildlife do not enter.  Close your windows and doors as soon as the bee leaves.
Summary: Open the windows of your house. Open the doors of your home. Wait several minutes for the bee to leave.

Problem: Article: Neon colors, animal prints, and other loud designs are not ideal for ballgowns, which are usually meant to be worn at upscale formal events. Instead, stick with colors, prints, and textures that are more subdued. Some colors, prints, and textures you might consider for your ballgown fabric include:  Dark colors, such as blue, black, plum, and green. Pastels, such as pale pink, baby blue, and mint green. Subdued prints, such as florals, brocades, and other subdued graphic details. Textured fabrics, such as lace, dotted Swiss, and tulle. Ballgowns are usually floor length, so choose a dress design that will go all the way to the ground. If you do not want your gown to go all the way to the ground, then opt for a design that is at least long enough to cover your ankles. Make sure to consider the shoes you will be wearing as well. If you will be wearing heels, then you might want to show them off a bit, and an ankle length dress will work best for this. Showing too much of your cleavage, back, or legs can take your ballgown from classy to trashy. It’s okay to show a small amount of skin while you are wearing your dress, but make sure that you do not go overboard. For example, you might opt for a dress that shows off your arms, a small amount of cleavage, part of your back, or a glimpse of your legs with a conservative slit. If you will be wearing your ballgown to an event that is meant to honor your partner, such as a Marine Ball, then make sure that you consider your partner as you design your gown. Some questions you might consider include:  What type of ballgown would complement his uniform? What colors does he like on you? What type of design might he enjoy seeing you in?
Summary: Opt for a classy fabric. Look for long dress patterns. Steer clear of revealing designs. Consider what your partner will be wearing.

Problem: Article: If you don’t have a whole room you can use for studying, carve out a space like the corner of a room, a small alcove, or a large closet. You’ll be more productive if you dedicate a space to studying rather than working in a room you use for other things, like your bedroom, living room or kitchen. This helps to minimize distractions and keep you on task. Use curtains or partitions to separate a study space from the rest of a larger room. If your study room has a window, be sure to put your desk or table near it. Natural light will keep you alert and focused, and also provides illumination for reading and writing. You’ll also be able to enjoy the view during study breaks! Sometimes a little change of scenery can help you study better. If you can, add a comfy chair or couch to your study room in an area opposite your usual work space. Then, you can move from the desk to the couch when you feel restless or want to sit in a different position. A chaise lounge piled with pillows and blankets makes a great reading spot or resting space. If you have a hard time focusing on the task at hand, make your study room as sparse as possible. Choose a plain desk or table and a comfortable chair. Store your supplies out of sight, and avoid hanging up lots of posters or adding other distracting elements to the room.
Summary: Choose a private space to increase your productivity. Situate your work space near a window, if possible. Add a sitting area if you have the room. Keep the design minimal if you are easily distracted.

Both aerobic and weight lifting exercises are good for you bone health, but resistance training, or weight lifting, can build up your bone mass and muscles in site specific locations. For example, you can use squats to build up the bone density in your legs. Do 2-3 weight lifting workouts a week to help build up your bone density.  Weight lifting also builds up your muscles, which help keep your bones in place and maintain bone density. Weight training, elastic exercise bands, and exercises that use your own body weight like pushups are excellent for strengthening. Yoga and Pilates can also improve strength and flexibility. However, people who already have osteoporosis should not do certain positions, as it may increase the risk of bone fracture or breakage.

Smoking also affects how the density of your bones, so quitting can help improve your bone health. If you’re around others who smoke, try to avoid breathing in the secondhand smoke.  If you smoke,  quitting quickly decreases your risk for many diseases. The longer you smoke, the higher your risk is of low bone density and fractures. Secondhand smoke exposure during youth and early adulthood may increase your risk of developing low bone mass later.  Smoking also reduces the production of estrogen in women, which can also lead to weaker bones. If diet and exercise don’t appear to be improving your bone health, make an appointment to see your doctor. They can test to see if you have an underlying medical condition and can recommend treatment options and prescribe medications to help improve your bone density.  Estrogens and progestins help maintain bone density in both men and women. The aging process decreases the amount of these hormones your body produces. Hormone supplements including estrogen products may reduce your risk of developing osteoporosis. Medications that can help treat or prevent osteoporosis include ibandronate, alendronate, risedronate sodium, and zoledronic acid.
