Use them as chop sticks. It is best to not sharpen them before in order to avoid any further accidents. 2. Use two to play drums. Just synchronize and start playing. 3. Good for sword fighting. Mini sword duels are the best when having less work or when you just want to play with your kids in the house on a rainy day. 4. Hippie Hairdo holder. Girls use pencils to quickly arrange their hair or you get a funky punky look. If you want to look cooler, use colored or funny design pencils. 5. Door stop. Ideal when you just want to get outside for a few moments and do not want to take the key or to be locked outside. 6. Clean your muddy shoe treads. After a short run in the park or a short trip in the mountains it’s time to clean the shoes and this is no easy work. But if you use the pencil you will finish the job faster. 7. Chew them when nervous. Or just because you have a bad habit that you can get over it. 8. Funny poses. Stick them in your ears, up your nose or under your lip just like fangs. This is a quick and easy way to lighten up someone’s mood. 9. Darts arrows. Sharp them so they are quite pointy and play darts from close range 10. Measuring tool. When you have no other measuring tools around, the pencil is quite a saver. 11. Clean your ears with the erasers. Kind of yucky, but many do it. Look at your colleagues to see if you catch them red handed. 12. Pinwheel. Make one out of paper and stick it with a pin onto the pencil’s eraser 13. Fetch stick for your dog. Not very fancy but the dog will love it. Hopefully the pencil will last in the dog’s mouth so you can play longer. 14. Back scratcher. It’s so hard to reach sometimes to the place where you have that awful itch but the pencil will save the day. 15. Cat toy. I guarantee that the cat will play with it for hours  and could even get addicted. Mine did! ... more » simplify3 Kudut Mon, 21 Dec 2009 19:29:59 GMT http://free.naplesplus.us/articles/view.php/53318/56-uses-for-a-pencil#comments 0 http://free.naplesplus.us/comments/post.php/article/53318 http://free.naplesplus.us/comments/feed.php/article/53318 http://free.naplesplus.us/links/trackback.php?anchor=article%3A53318 http://free.naplesplus.us/articles/view.php/53315/frugal-dollar-stores-fyi http://free.naplesplus.us/articles/view.php/53315/frugal-dollar-stores-fyi Dollar Stores by Garen Daly, at The Frugal Yankee Do you know what things you can safely buy in a dollar store? "...stay away from the following dollar store products:Batteries - Look closely at the package. Many of them are knock-offs, made in the Far East with inferior materials. They leak acid and don't last as long as other, well-known brands. You may save on the up front cost, but replacements or damage will cost more.Children's Toys and Jewelry - "Consumer Reports" has found many of these items to have high concentrations of lead. The countries of origin lack the government oversight or have lax regulations. If you do want to buy, look at the label closely. Where was it made? Is it a brand name? Again the Frugal Yankee suggests staying away from these, especially for babies and toddlers who put everything in their mouth.Paper Goods - Again this is usually an inferior product. Foam cups and paper plates are the most frequently cited example of bad products. You can find better deals and better products at a good warehouse store. (The exception is party goods for little kids. If you find the princess or monster truck theme that your child wants, go ahead. You'll use them for about 10 minutes and the quality isn't much of an issue.)Vitamins - Name brand purchased by dollar stores may be a deal, but look closely at the expiration date. Expired vitamins defeat the purpose.Food - Tread carefully here. There can be some bargains, but read the entire label carefully, especially if you don't recognize the brand. Look not only at the expiration date but also at the ingredients and where it was made. Then make an informed decision.Electrical Products - Knock-offs from other countries should be avoided. They are simply not up to the standard we are accustomed to. Look at the cords and the construction. If anything looks "off," avoid it. See if it has a UL label on it. That is usually a sign of minimum quality standards.Toothpaste - In 2007, most of us heard how certain toothpaste from China had nasty chemicals in those seemingly innocuous looking tubes. Even if you were to buy it from a dollar store, prices at pharmacies and supermarkets are usually competitive, so why bother?Peanuts - The recent salmonella scandal with peanuts and peanut butter should be a wake up call for everyone. But did you know that the first recall did not include dollar stores even though they had a bunch on the shelves? Our advice is to stay away from peanuts and peanut butter in dollar stores for some time.Looking at the above list carefully, there are a few constants. These constants are good advice for any shopper, any place and any time. Read the label carefully. Check the expiration date. Know the country of origin. Know the ingredients. Does the package looked damaged? Make your purchases smarter and safer.Ask one more question. Can I buy this item someplace else for a better price and/or higher quality? Often, warehouse stores offer better prices for bulk purchases. You can stock up at sales in supermarkets and drugstore chains. Consider both when shopping.OK, with all that, what are the good deals in dollar stores?Gift-Wrap - This is especially true right after a holiday. Prices for gift-wrap, ribbons, and greeting cards are remarkably low.Cleaning Supplies - Like many products, cleaning supplies go through fads or seasons. What may be the hot product one year quickly becomes dollar store shelf filler the next. Perhaps this is because the manufacturer has introduced a new scent. There is no reason to avoid these products just because they are no longer hot. They still will clean, as long as the expiration date hasn't been reached.Kitchen Accessories - A sharp shopper can score with kitchen accessories. Sometimes these items are simply out of fashion, sometimes they are imported and sometimes the dollar store scored on a close out. Just be careful about where it is made and what you are using it for.After a brief period of use, kitchen towels or potholders will get stained and worn. No amount of laundering helps. Recycle them or toss them. Expensive or inexpensive, the same fate awaits. Dollar stores are the place to pick up the fresh ones.Food - Yeah, I know that's in the "be very careful" category but read the labels. Good products at good prices can be found. The Frugal Yankee found some very good coffee for $3.50 a pound that normally would sell for about $9 a pound. Be sharp, be savvy and scores can be found. If it is a huge score, why not stock up?Office/School Supplies - There is no expiration date. There is little chance for contamination from lead or other chemicals. So paper, erasers and many school/office supplies are decent deals. Again compare prices at a discount office store before committing.Plastics - Buckets, bins, organizers, clothes hangers, and the like can be good deals. If you expect heavy use, hold out for a national brand. If you just want to organize some things on a shelf, these will be fine.I have one more caution. It's easy to toss a lot of little things into the shopping cart when prices are low. Dollar stores count on that impulse. Don't clutter your life with useless deals. Resist the cute little vase, a spoon rest, or an auto deodorizer.There are more products, but the most important thing to remember about dollar stores is simply this. These stores make a living on finding low priced goods and then selling them. Where the goods come from, how long they have been around or what's in them is not necessarily closely inspected by the store. When shopping dollar stores, do so knowing you have to be the one making the smart decisions. You are not paying someone to do that for you. ... more » simplify3 Kudut Mon, 21 Dec 2009 11:57:09 GMT http://free.naplesplus.us/articles/view.php/53315/frugal-dollar-stores-fyi#comments 0 http://free.naplesplus.us/comments/post.php/article/53315 http://free.naplesplus.us/comments/feed.php/article/53315 http://free.naplesplus.us/links/trackback.php?anchor=article%3A53315 http://free.naplesplus.us/articles/view.php/53268/how-to-tell-if-your-feet-smell-very-bad http://free.naplesplus.us/articles/view.php/53268/how-to-tell-if-your-feet-smell-very-bad ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ How to tell if your feet smell very bad.

Stir until sugar and salt have dissolved, but do not boil. Remove pot from heat and let cool for 15 minutes.Next Spread a layer of ice into the bottom of a cooler that is a little larger than the turkey. Set the brining bag inside cooler of ice and place turkey, breast side down, inside bag. Pour cooled brine over turkey, plus an additional 1 gallon of water or juice. To further cool brine, add 2 scoops of ice into brine bag. Seal bag, making sure to let out as much air as possible. Add additional ice to cooler so that your turkey stays at 40 degrees Fahrenheit while brining. Brine for one hour per pound of turkey. Do not over brine, or turkey will be salty.Last Remove turkey from brine, scooping some of the herbs and spices from brine solution and spreading onto the skin of the turkey for extra flavor. Brush turkey with vegetable oil or melted butter and cook as desired (roasting or smoking) until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F. Discard brine and use an antibacterial cleaner to clean area exposed to raw poultry.I do not recommend stuffing a turkey -- brined or not -- because in order for the stuffing to reach a safe temperature of 160 degrees F, the turkey itself will be overcooked. You can store a brined turkey in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours before cooking. Store turkey on a V rack set inside a roasting pan, uncovered.
