HealthTalk.com's Dr. Zimney answers the question: How do I get rid of hiccups? The hiccup is a pretty mysterious thing. The two methods of stopping hiccups are to increase CO2 levels or fiddle with your throat. Hold your breath, drink a glass of cold water, swallow dry sugar or breathe out of a bag. If it lasts for multiple days go to the doctor.
Minor chords sometimes have a sadness to them, but will help you beautify your playing. In this section from Charles Sedlak, we will cover these chords. Don't cry though when you're strumming those strings... just take a deep breath, and pour those chords out.
Given a function, you can easily find the slope of a tangent line using Microsoft Excel to do the dirty work. That is to say, you can input your x-value, create a couple of formulas, and have Excel calculate the secant value of the tangent slope. This is a fantastic tool for Stewart Calculus sections 2.1 and 2.2.
A pair of straight lines can be parallel lines or perpendicular lines or neither. Two lines are said to be parallel when their slopes are equal. Two parallel lines never intersect each other. On the other hand two lines are perpendicular when the product of their slopes is equal to -1. Two perpendicular lines intersect only once and at right angles. So when you are given two lines and asked to find if they are parallel or perpendicular lines, first compute the slope of the lines. Identify two...
In this video tutorial learn how to graph an equation using the slope and y-intercept. To show how this can be done, the equation 4X-5Y=20 is used as an example. The first step that needs to be done is to convert the equation into the y=mx+b format where m is the slope and b is the intersection of the y-intercept. Simply solve the equation for Y and you get Y=4/5X-4. From this, you will find that the slope, or m, is equal to 4/5 and that b is the coordinates 0 and -4. On the graph, you will w...
This video teaches you how to use substitution to find the point on a graph (the x and y coordinates) where two separate equations would cross. Substitution is a trick of algebra that allows you to find this point without making a graph. The first step is to isolate one of the variables (x or y) in one of the equations. That way, you know that that variable is equal to everything on the other side of the equals sign from it. You can then take that whole side, and substitute it into the other ...

Take one of the red roses and surround it by about four of the white roses. Then, add additional red roses in between each white rose. Frame this arrangement with the ferns ...
A fan who recently got "depruded" by his girlfriend (his first kiss) wrote in asking for advice on how to become a better kisser. Kiss like you're tasting a delicate fruit! Step one: Brush your teeth. Step two: GUM! Step three: Stay away from onions and garlic. Generally make your breath smell and taste good, you do NOT want your breath to smell like living death! Step four: Now practice on that delicious delicate fruit. Lips, tongue, and teeth, can all get into the action.
This is how to false and death chord scream. This is an element of most death metal and hard rock vocals. The scream utilizes a different breath, lung exhale and vocal control than regular talking or singing.
Anyone can blow bubbles with that soap formula and a bubble wand, but what about blowing bubbles rings underwater. It surprisingly, isn't too much different from blowing regular bubbles underwater. You'll need to be able to hold your breath for a long time and to be able to stay under the water's surface (the deeper you can go, the longer the bubble ring will last). Watch this video bubble-blowing tutorial and learn how to blow bubble rings underwater.

Proud new papa Gjoci wanted to make sure he never had to worry about whether or not his baby girl was breathing, so he built this amazing breath-detecting baby monitor using a Wii remote, a printed circuit, and a laser. First, he opened up the Wiimote and took out the camera, then used an Atmel Atmega88 microcontroller to make a printed circuit. Low-power infrared lasers shine on the baby's clothing and the Wii camera detects the motion of the baby's breath, activating an alarm if the motion ...

In this tutorial, we learn how to graph a circle. When given an equation to graph the circle, you will first need to find the vertex of the circle. Once you find this, you can use those coordinates to mark the vertex on the graph. Follow the negatives and positives to go up, down, left, and right on the graph. Next, you will need to find the 'r' value of the equation. After this, you will use this to continue to graph the rest of the points around the vertex. When finished, draw the outline o...
