If there’s still some water at the bottom of your toilet tank, soak it up with a sponge or cleaning cloth so it doesn’t drip out when you remove it. If the tank starts refilling as soon as you stop flushing it, then you didn’t turn the water supply off completely.

There may still be some water left inside the hose or in your tank, so keep a towel or bucket nearby to catch any spills....

South Korea, the IMF’s new golden child after having repaid its $20 billion bailout loans from the 1998 Asia crisis, looks like a ray of sunshine. But Kim Dae Jung’s Korea could soon stumble when it comes to the seemingly simple. Exports are plummeting. Debt levels are rising.

The latest is fellow Heisman Trophy winner and Texan, Earl Campbell. MORE: A timeline of Manziel antics | Who might take a chance on Johnny? “We gotta get him some help,” Campbell told ESPN. “I know everybody says that, but if you’ve never been there, how can you listen to someone?
