How do I repair a ceramic tile?

apartment repair
I have a ceramic tile in my apartment that is cracked. I am about to move out, and while it was broken before I moved in, it wasn’t noted on the walk through form I filled out because I didn’t have electric in my apartment and couldn’t see it due to the lack of light. I was wondering if anyone knew of any quick and inexpensive ways to repair it so they don’t try to charge me for it. It is a multicolored tile.

I’m queen for a local organization in my area and tomorrow after school I have to sell roses for it. This is the first time that I get to to wear my tiara - and I have no idea how to wear it! It looks kind of like this.

I just have no idea how to wear it in my hair since it’s supposed to be placed flat on my head. My hair is black and right below my shoulders and has layers. I need a quick and easy way to put the tiara on and make it look good since I have to go right after school.

Your help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

I’m 14, for a novel I’m writing about troubled teens, I just wonder if it’s possible for two 16-year-olds with part-time jobs to rent a flat or a room in England, without the consent of parents but with the consent of an older adult sibling. Big thanks in advance.
OK, I’m confused, Lu Lu and Tigger gave completely different answers, which one’s right?

Alright this is kind of a long story but i can’t seem to get it off my mind. It is really bothering me. so here goes….
I took lessons with this trainer for summer and then i bought a new horse and thought, since she was my trainer she would help me with her. We had one lesson.
Then she bought these two horses….both ten years old….and she bought them only to sell them and make extra money.
One of the horses is a BEAUTIFUL paint. I fell in love with him. He bucked me off the first time i rode him lol.
But when i went out to ride him…..he was VERY spooky, he spooked at cracks in the road, long grass, he bucked multiple times, he was afraid of the saddle going on him, i could go on and on……
But like i said i fell in lov ewith him…..he has some real potentional to be a lower level wp horse. I wanted to get him a coggins and then work with him and next summer show him.
The trainer agreed that i could bring him to my house (she was out of town for most of the summer) so i got him here and i was out just hanging with him and i noticed lines on his hooves….founder lines. The next day when my vet came out i asked her about it and she said yes he has foundered many times (she even did tests and found out he had)
I called the trainer and just left a message about it and she never called back.
Then that night i had brought my horses in from the pasture 9i have three mares…a 26 year old, a 7 year old, and a minni) blizzard (the horse) ran through five strands of the mesh electric wire and tried to mount my mare over a wooden gate.

I caught him as quick as i could and put him in a pasture far away wtih solid fencing.
I called the trainer and told her i needed to talk to her right away. This time she called back. She told me it didn’t matter that he had foundered because, and i quote, “he is ten years old and not a high end show horse or anyhting”

That made me quite mad becasue blizzard deserves the care he needs and she isn’t going to give it to him because he isn’t a high end show horse.

Then when i told her how he had ran through the fence and tried to mount my horse she says…..”well ya he’s obviosily proud cut”
and it was not obvious to me….because if i had know this i never would have brought him to my house where he could hurt my horses!
i took blizzard back to his house because i didn’t want him at my house where he could hurt him self trying to get to my horses or hurt my hroses.

I didn’t talk to the trainer after that for a while.
Then i got a call a few days ago from someone who was looking at buying blizzard….she had him at her house.
The trainer had not told her that blizzard had foundered (she keeps her horses on grass all the time) She did not tell the lady that he was proud cut (the lady has a 28 year old mare, a mare with a locking stifle so she should not be running around and she also has a minni) She said that she had asked the trainer flat out asked her is blizzard had ever foundered and the trainer said no. So she lied to her face.
She also told the trainer about the horses she had and the trainer didn’t even mention to her that he was proud cut.

She also told the lady that he was calm…which he’s not. She said he has been on tons of trail rides. When irode him he had only been ridden 3 or 4 times before that.
He does not go out alone….he throws a fit. The lady had only been riding for a few years and told me that when she rode him she didn’t know what to do when she tried to go out a lone and he freaked.

Most experianced horse people would steer away from the horse…..but the trainer has him advertised (i looked at his ad) as a very calm very experianced trail horse….which he really isn’t.

so i ended up ruining the sale for the trainer but i was just honest……do you think i was wrong for being honest with the lady?

it really bothers me that she lies so easily about the horse. He is not anything like she advetises him. she withholds stuff that is very important for a buyer to know. It really bothers me.

Is there anything i can do about this? (i have tried to call her and talk to her but the phone just rings and rings and rings)
Or should i just leave it?
So YOU think what she is doing is wrong or is it just me?

sorry this is so long…..i just can’t seem to get this all off my mind and i just want to know if there is anything i can do about it…..
thanks!
I have switched trainers…..i now have an AMAZING trainer that has taught me more in three lessons than the other one did in a whole summer of lessons!
I am VERY happy that i left this trainer as i left her before i learned that she really was lying to people about the horse……she is no longer my trainer.
Thanks you all for all your answers so far….i will do some research and see if there is anything else i can with this…..thanks!

De Facto Visa to the UK?

rent flat uk

I’m Canadian and would like to live in the UK with my boyfriend. I would appreciate only serious answers from people who have/have had one in the past.
1) Would I be covered by the NHS, would I have to pay a fee per month/year, or would I just have to pay for anything I may need out of my own pocket? ie; If I got pregnant..
2) “In terms of immigration to the UK, settled status means that a permanent resident is living here lawfully with no time limit on their stay.” My partner can BE a British citizen, right? Born & raised here?
3) Can the visa be extended, if we have not married in that amount of time, or can I get an Indefinite Leave to Remain?
4) If we wanted to rent a house/flat out, can it be rented out to my name?
5) Do I have to have a certain amount of money in my possession before they will let me come to the UK on a De Facto visa? ie; On a Working Holiday Maker’s Visa to Canada from the UK, you must have at least 500£
6) Cost of the De Facto Visa? Thanks for all of your help
I would actually appreciate as much information on this as possible.. Any documents or anything..?
Oh, also about the social insurance number.. I know that’s not what it’s called here.. National something number or something, I’m pulling a blank at the moment.. How long does that usually take to get?

Oh, and how do I go about even applying for this visa? Should I visit the British Embassy when I get back to Canada, or can I just find the paperwork somewhere and fill it out? Will the British Embassy even talk to me? Do I have to make an appointment?

I am so sorry for all of the questions, but I REALLY want this information so I can take care of it ASAP.
My partner was born AFTER 1983..

Hi, I have purchased a new under-construction apartment from a reputed builder in Mumbai, India. We have moved in just about a month ago. We have observed that very fine, hair-line cracks have developed in all the walls. Reportedly, this is heppening in all apartments of the same complex. We asked the builder about it and they responded saying that this is normal for a new construction and happens due to climatic changes. They have asked us to wait for more such cracks to come in next 3-4 months and then they will repair/fill it and do the touch-up. My question is that whether this is normal and whether after the repair this will be alright? It will be great if anyone can throw light on this. Thanx.
