"Lumpy" face- what causes this, how can I fix it?
I have what I would call a "lumpy" face, so-called because it roughly looks like bread dough after it has been left out for a while to rise, and then turned on its side- pasty, puffy, uneven, kind of swollen, and headed vaguely downward in a droopy-dog sort of way. My face has been this way since I turned seventeen, and I don't have acne, although I did have bad cystic acne when I was a teenager. I'm fairly thin, and I've never really seen anyone else with facial skin that does this. I'm twenty three now, and take really good care of myself. I've been to dermatologists, and all they have been able to come up with is that I probably don't get enough sleep (which isn't true.) The skin on the rest of my body is normal. Any ideas?
How many times can you use fix a flat?
You can fix flats several times but if the hole in in the side wall you cannot fix that.Go to a tire shop.
I got a bad tattoo yesterday, how can I fix it and do I have a right to complain?
Really sorry that you are not happy with your tattoo. It would be better if I can see the image which you used as a reference. I assume it was your first tattoo, as there were mistakes from both ends, artists and yours. Whatever I am gonna say, you may not like it but I will go ahead and say.For your specific case:Was it a free hand or stenciled?If it was stenciled, then the part of the mistake is yours also, every tattoo artist confirms after the stencil if the person is happy with the design and I assume you also checked that and confirmed the artist to go ahead.I assume the artist was inexperienced from what images you provided, as this could have been made a lot better with some black-gray shading then just black circles. So here there are two cases, either you didn't check the artist's work or they showed you the fake portfolio. In second case you can complain about the fake portfolio used by the artist.As far as cover up or removal is concerned, Laser is one option which you yourself mentioned. But I would suggest to first talk to the artist, and see what can be done with this. Complete converups that too of black tattoos are very hard as no other color with be that effective on top of black, but there are other possibilities for example make this tattoo a bit more complex, ask your artist to put some more details, some shading and come up with a design which is not as plain as this one, that will hide the flaws in this. If you are not willing to do that, then keep laser as the last option. Also keep in mind that laser removal costs a lot and also hurts a lot (what I heard, never experienced). I would like to cover few points which every person going for tattoo should know:Whenever you go for a tattoo, you have to keep in mind that the design in the image and on the body will vary a lot, as out body is not a canvas and out skin is too lousy sometimes. Selection of the artist is one of the most important thing to be considered. Anyone who knows how the tattoo machine works is not a good artist.Quality of the tattoo piece is directly proportional to the money you pay (most of the time). I am not saying you tried saving money and went to inexperienced artist, but its a general point and people sometime don't understand why different artist take different price for the same piece.Thanks for A2A
Why does my PC keep overheating? How can I fix it?
Which way is the airflow through the CPU cooler radiator? The fans should be oriented to take the CPU heat straight out of the case. Some makers instructions say they should blow inward for some reason - that's daft, it does away with all the advantage of a liquid cooler, which is to keep the CPU heat away from the rest of the parts... Overall airflow should be in through the front of the case and out through the top/back. Other than that, make sure the radiator is clean; they do tend to clog up with dust quite easily and need brushing out every few weeks.. One other thought - what heatsink compound did you use and how much? The proper types are like a soft grease, not a thick paste. The idea is that it spreads and only fills the microscopic imperfections in the CPU and heatsink surfaces, it should not hold them apart. Too much reduces heat transfer rather than aiding it. It also needs to be put on so there are no air pockets - a single small blob in the middle of the CPU, that spreads under pressure from the cooler is one way of ensuring no trapped air. Many of the expensive metal-based "CPU thermal grease" products do not work as well as basic bulk commercial white zinc oxide thermal grease and to give you an idea of the best consistency, one magazine doing a comparative test included other oils and greases - and mayonnaise worked better than 90% of the "special PC CPU" products, though I'd not expect it to last more than a day or so...
How long does Fix-a-Flat last? Is it only to get home with. or does it indeed fix the flat?
PurPle, It lasts for only a few miles at moderate speeds. It isn't designed to get you home - it's used to get you to a place to have your tire repaired. If you drive home, let your tire cool, and then drive again - thus warming up your tire again, it could go flat. ALSO - when you take your tire in to get it fixed, make certain you tell them you used Fix-A-Flat. They need to vent the chemicals out. "Ranger"
Why does my cheese sauce get so grainy? How can I fix it?
As a quite experienced cook, I’ve encountered this problem myself.There are a few solutions and reasons to and behind this problem.Most people go wrong when making the roux. Roux should always be made with a high-quality butter or margarine. More fat and less water is going to be the key to success, so go with butter (or margarine) that’s high in fat content and low in water. DO NOT GO WITH ANY KIND OF OIL, that’s just a recipe for a disaster!Another step where people fail is burning the roux. Cook the roux while stirring constantly over a low heat no more than a minute! You could even use a timer. Burning the roux will definitely cause the sauce to be grainy (and you’ll know when it burns from the smell and the golden or brown color of the roux).When it comes to pouring in the dairy, make sure that the roux is scolding hot and the milk is cold enough to sooth the burn you’d get by getting some of that roux on your skin! So, pour in the milk in small portions while stirring constantly.If you mess up during any of those steps you could strain the thickened milk through a fine-mesh sieve.It’s also very important what type of cheese you use and what amount of it. Go with cheeses that melt easily and you’ll succeed every time!
Why does my Alfredo sauce gets lumpy? How do I fix it?
Alfredo sauce is a white cheese sauce that often accompanies pastas, such as fettuccine and linguine. It also makes a delicious topping for steamed vegetables and chicken.Pour two cups of heavy cream into a pan and heat over medium-low heat. Whisk one stick of butter into the cream until it melts.Shred one cup of Parmesan or Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese using a box grater. Shred the cheese on the large grater. The smaller grater shreds cheese to a sand-like consistency. Always use original Parmesan cheese and grate it yourself. Canned Parmesan will result in a grainy texture in your sauce.Bring the Parmesan to room temperature by letting it sit on the counter for 15 to 20 minutes once it is shredded. Cheese that is at room temperature will melt and blend evenly, helping you attain a creamy and smooth texture to your sauce.Whisk the Parmesan into the hot cream and butter mixture. Stir until it is melted and combined.Remove the Alfredo sauce from the heat once the cheese has nearly melted. The cheese will continue to melt once you remove the sauce from the heat. It is important to avoid overcooking the sauce, which could result in the cheese curdling and a grainy texture developing.
