To prepare chilies for preservation in oil, most people slice them into strips. However, smaller chilies may be left whole. Leave in as many seeds as you want depending on the heat level you desire. Lay them out on a baking sheet in a single layer. Cooking the chilies before preserving them will help to bring out the best in their flavor. You can roast them over a grill or a gas burner.  Preheat your oven's broil, or prepare your grill. Roast the slices until they’re charred. Under the broiler, this should take just a few minutes. Turn them once during the process so they cook evenly on all sides. Put the peppers in a clean jar or bottle. You may want to use a decorative olive oil container. Pour olive oil over the peppers until they're entirely covered. Store the jar in a cool, dark place.

One-sentence summary -- Wash and slice the chilies. Broil the pepper pieces. Pack the peppers in olive oil.


Skip the usual enhancements, like eyeliner, eye shadow, lipstick, and mascara. Leaving them off will give you a blank canvas to work with. From there, you’ll be able to stage each part of your face individually.  Wash and exfoliate your face before you begin so it will take the cosmetics better. A makeup-free base is also more believable, since most people don’t bother with makeup when they’re feeling unwell. Dab the foundation onto your cheeks, chin, and forehead. Then, blend it thoroughly so it isn’t too obvious. When you’re done, you’ll look like all the color has drained out of your face. If you’re unsure which foundation will look best, start with a shade closer to your skin tone and lighten up from there. Going too light at once may not be convincing. Dust a contouring brush with purple or maroon eye shadow and sweep the bristles along the length of your cheekbones from your earlobes to the corners of your mouth. Blend with a separate brush until only there's only a faint trace of the color remaining. This drawn, sickly effect will be enough to suggest that you've dropped weight.  If the shadow on your cheeks isn't quite gloomy enough on its own, try hitting other areas where color will show up well, like your temples and laugh lines. Switch to a darker shade of eye shadow to broadcast that you're on your deathbed. For best results, pick out a subtle pink or magenta shade. Pat it onto the points of your cheeks and the center of your forehead and blend in every direction. Apply the blush lightly at first and add more little by little to hint at a temperature. Go easy on the blush. You want to look like a sick person, not a china doll.

The tide has turned against baby walkers and many people will warn you against using them due to delaying development of motor skills as well as high risk of injury to your toddler.  Just 24 hours of using a walker can result in delays in excess of 3 days for walking and standing on their own.  Walkers allow the toddler to move at a faster speed than normal, as well as giving them access to things they would not normally be able to reach. Canada considers the use of walkers so dangerous, that they banned them in 2004. This is a product created to assist in supporting your toddler from the ribs rather than pulling up on their arms, which could lead to injuries.  Strap the padded vest around the toddler’s ribs. Hold a loop in each hand above each of the toddler’s shoulders. Pulling up slightly to give the toddler support, begin moving them forward one step at a time. This will give your child something to hold onto as they explore moving around the house on their feet. They will have the support of an object which moves with them.  Find a toy which is heavy enough to support your toddler and has a wide base for balance. Start with a push toy. This will be easier for them to use and encourage them to move forward while looking straight ahead. Consider a toy which is a miniature version of something your toddler has seen you use, like a mini shopping cart full of toys. Pull toys, like wagons, are more complicated and can tempt the toddler to look behind them instead of where they are going. Make sure their path is cleared of obstacles.

One-sentence summary -- Avoid walkers. Strap on some walking wings. Provide push and pull toys.


Mark messages as spam to have them automatically filtered out of your inbox in the future. When you receive spam, select the message and mark it as spam. This will mark the sender as a spammer, and all subsequent messages will be diverted to your spam folder.  Most web mail clients (like Google Mail, Yahoo! Mail, Outlook, and more) already have built-in spam filters that automatically move spam to your account’s spam folder. Spam filters are able to recognize spam by their text characteristics and large numbers of recipients. Spam messages are e-mails randomly sent to a large number of recipients, often for marketing or scamming purposes. Since spam messages can contain viruses, it's a good idea to avoid opening the message in order to mark it as spam. It is better to simply delete the message, rather than get a virus while trying to mark it as spam. Different email clients will have more powerful spam filters and other features. If you aren't impressed with your email service, try using a different one.  Gmail is generally considered one of the more effective at filtering spam and has a large number of tools available for you to further control your email. If your email address requires that you use a particular client but you want to try another one, have your existing client forward your emails to a new address with a different client. You should only give your email to websites you trust and that have a good reputation. You don’t want to give out your e-mail address unless it's really important. An e-mail address is one of your personal points of contact, just like your cell phone or your home telephone number. Being responsible about signing up for websites will often help reduce your emails.  Although a website you give your email to might not email you themselves, they might sell your email address to another company which will spam you. Businesses that you give your email address to in real life may also do this. Be wary of particularly disreputable industries like travel agencies and bridal shows. Since they know exactly what you're looking to spend money on, they can easily sell your email address to related companies or services. Sometimes you might be inclined to post your email address on a website. This might be your own personal website or it might be the comments section of another website (like news websites or blogs). Another common mistake is posting your email address in forums. There are people who troll the web for email addresses and then sell those addresses to companies that want to send you spam. By taking some precautions, you can make sure this doesn't happen.  One common solution is to write the email out instead of just listing it. So, for example, "jackjohn@email.com" might become "jack john at email dot com". If the website where you want to post your email is your own, you can create a link which automatically generates an email to you instead of posting your address. This is known as a "mailto:" link.
