How long is too long to leave your car idling? Just 10 seconds. If you've ever sat in your car with the engine running while waiting for someone to quickly run into the store, it takes only 10 seconds before you start wasting more fuel than you would restarting the engine. So, when in doubt, park and turn off the car to save gas.

Pressed powder makeup that breaks up into clumps can be salvaged with just a little rubbing alcohol and some time. Pack all the pressed powder clumps back into the compact and pour a little rubbing alcohol inside until it fills up to the top. Stir with a small spoon or toothpick until the mixture is smooth and then allow it to dry for 24 hours. The alcohol will evaporate and you'll be left with a good-as-new pressed powder.

Who knew? The Plastic Bag Recycling program at your local supermarket can take more than just plastic grocery store bags. You can also deposit clean sandwich bags (like the ZipLoc brand), newspaper bags, dry cleaning bags, bread and produce bags, plastic wrappers that cover toilet paper and paper towels and even plastic shipping envelopes. All of these plastics get collected by the plastics industry and made into new products like recycled plastic lumber.
