36/240 = 15%
Or you can just double the sales tax so long as you don't live in some godforsaken state like Alaska.

If you have trouble going to sleep: - Don't ever lie down on bed for anything except to sleep - no reading, using your laptop, spacing out, etc. - If you can't fall asleep after 10-20 minutes lying in bed, then get out of bed and do something for around half an hour until you get sleepy, and then try lying down in bed again I learned this in class; it has to do with conditioning yourself to associate your bed only with sleeping. If you regularly lie down in bed and do other stuff, then you're going to become used to staying up while lying down in bed. ... or something like this. Sorry, this class is one of my least favourite classes.
Counting from 1 to 10 over and over works for me as well. Gets your mind off of other things. If you accidentally count past 10, even better.

cut an apple in half without a knife
method 1: you can cut an apple with your finger by placing your finger(on its side, not flat so u dont break it) at the top or bottom. take your other hand and make a fist. then smash your finger which is on top of the apple. you will now have an apple cut in half.
method 2: take both hands and rip it from top to bottom. takes more strength than method 1.

my only tip stop tipping less then 20% people talking about tipping 12.5%. If you tip more people really appreciate it and its good karma, plus more tip =

When using the microwave, don't use 0. If you want 12 minutes of baking (wtf?), don't type 12:00. Type 11:59. You'll save the 10 seconds while the microwave resets to 0.
CTRL + A is select all for every single application I have used.
Always have a notepad handy by every home phone, or the main phone. It helps to take down notes.
If you're a high schooler or something, one of my favourite teachers suggested something really useful. Carry a clipboard or something similar of note taking paper along with all of your binders. Take notes for the entire day with only the clipboard, and when you get home, read over your notes while you put them away in your binders. I've made several people do this, and it helps a bunch. Especially since you always have paper on hand. 30 pages on the clipboard are very helpful.
I have more, but my memory is really bad. And I also don't notice them, since they have become habits by now.

When trying to fall asleep, do this. Stretch yourself out on your bed, relax, get comfortable.
Now don't physically try to sleep, just let your mind relax, as your body is relaxing. start at your toes, stretch them out, and then relax them, now your calves, tense them, and relax them, knees now, tense, then relax, and so on and at the top of your head, let your entire body relax and start thinking about something you learned today, your body is totally loose by now, so now for the mind, think about something you learned and apply it in your mind, imagine microing banelings after day[9]s daily taught you how to, then just close your mind, and empty all thought and think of nothing.
Oh wow It's morning! :D in this case, christmas morning!

Don't sit for extended periods of time on the computer if you don't have a comfy chair, and make sure to drink lots of water and open your windows every once in a while.
Also, have a great christmas

For Google Chrome and Firefox:
Pressing CTRL-# switches tabs for you without have to click.
Ex. Pressing CTRL-4 will switch you to the 4th tab on your list if you have a 4th tab.

Ever cut your finger while trying to take off the cover of a can of soup? Next time take a magnet on the fridge, stick it on the cover and remove the cover by holding the magnet.

If you have indigestion, pinch the area between ur thumb and index finger.

When wiping your rectum after defecating, use the both sides of the toilet paper for maximum efficiency. You'll wash your hands after anyway.

If you got bitter tea, or coffee (You've had your tea bag in the water for too long). You can actually remove the bitter taste with SALT! Yes, try it! And the funny thing is that you dont feel the salt :s Man, Discovery channel is sooo much better than school ^^, though you meet alot of friends, and ppl that are quite attractive... hehe.

Okay here are a few one's I use:
30-60 minutes of hard cardio everyday will put you in a much better mood + the physical benefits.
If you're in college, try to play a varsity sport. I row at Syracuse which is D1 and you get the craziest benefits (money, tutoring for free, preferential treatment) all for no additional cost!
Make smoothies that are 100% fruit and use them to replace your meals. Magic happens.
Learn some basic yoga. Do 10 minutes of yoga a day.
Think about how much time you're wasting on that girl. Yeah.
Try to get that professor to know your name. They say it doesn't matter but trust me, it does.
Kinda related to an earlier one, if you're in college, try to make friends with athletes and get them to invite you to parties their team hosts. Much better than a frat and you never have to fight to get in/get booze.
Go to the library between your classes, it has been shown that doing homework earlier in the day helps with productivity.
Don't open facebook while doing homework, not even once. That being said, if you're reading TL and doing homework by all means continue.
Take some simple fiber pills once and a while. You will have majestic shits.
Learn to write well. Take extra writing classes. It's one of the most important skills in life.
Don't download porn, there is plenty of free, streaming stuff.
Keep your desktop as minimal as possible. Why? It looks cool... and lets chicks see your sweet TL wallpaper.
Watch Day[9].
I have a million things for athletes but I want to eat so...
