Rotate your injections clockwise at each site. Minimize the pain. Pinch your skin properly. Choose the best needle length for you.

Use a clean and sanitized siphon tube to siphon the wine into clean and sanitized wine bottles. Make sure you work in an easy-to-clean spot as bottling wine can become messy. Remember, if you want to avoid contaminating your wine with mouth bacteria, use a suction bulb to siphon the wine. Each brand of corker is different. Therefore, follow the manufacturer instructions to cork bottles. Make sure you have enough corks for every bottle of wine. If corker has trouble moving, use WD-40 to lubricate moving parts. However, don’t use WD-40 on any parts that will touch the wine or the cork. Use a label maker or paper and tape to create an interesting label for your wine. Include the ingredients and the date of bottling. This will help you determine when your wine is ready to open. Go into detail when listing ingredients. If you like the wine or want to change it, you will instantly know what recipe you used. It’s hard to resist opening a bottle of homemade wine. However, the flavor of this wine is best after two or three years. If you simply can’t wait, the wine is safe to drink at any time, even though the flavor may not be as good. Create a new batch of wine every season to ensure that you have a steady supply of muscadine wine each year.

TL;DR in English: Siphon the wine into clean wine bottles. Use a corker to seal the bottles. Label the bottles with the date and ingredients. Let the wine ferment for two to three years.

Develop a system that works for you to consistently rotate your injection sites. Continue to move around your body using new sites for each injection. Using a clockwise strategy is helpful for many people to help rotate their injection sites. Use a chart or drawing of your body areas to identify the sites you just used or are planning to use. Your diabetic healthcare provider or doctor can help you develop a system to rotate your injection sites.  Inject into your abdomen, two inches away from your navel and not too far towards your sides. Looking into a mirror, begin on the upper left of the injection area, move next to the upper right area, then lower right, then lower left.  Move to your thighs. Begin closest to your upper body, then move the next injection site further down.  In your buttocks, start with your left side and closer to your side, then move towards your midline, then to the right side and towards the midline, then to the areas closer to your right side.  If your arms are appropriate according to your doctor or healthcare provider, move systematically either up or down with injection sites in those areas. Keep track of the sites as you use them in a systematic manner. One way to help minimize the pain upon injection is to avoid injections at hair roots.  Use needles with shorter lengths and smaller diameters. Shorter needles help to minimize the pain and are appropriate for most people.  Acceptable shorter needle lengths include those that are either 4.5 mm, 5 mm, or 6 mm in length. Some injection sites or needle lengths work best if you gently pinch the skin to create skin folds.  Use only the thumb and index finger to lift the skin. Using more of your hand causes muscle tissue to be lifted and increases the risk of injecting your insulin into muscle tissue.  Do not squeeze the skin fold. Gently hold the skin in place to give the injection. Squeezing tightly can cause more pain and possibly interfere with the dose delivery. Shorter needles are appropriate for most patients, can be easier to...

Don't be afraid to experiment. Try new things.

Discard the liver membranes if they haven't already been removed. Slice the livers into 1⁄2 in (1.3 cm) thick slices.  into thin 1⁄4 in (0.64 cm) slices. Combine the flour, black salt, and pepper. Dredge the liver slices in the flour.

Whether you've been married for two years or twenty years, it can easily feel like you and your partner have fallen into a rut. Routines form because they are convenient and they make it easier to navigate your day-to-day life, but falling into ruts and routines in your relationship can slowly kill the romance without you even realizing it.  If you usually eat in most nights, try going out for a date night. If you typically make your own separate meals, try cooking a meal for your partner and eating together. Do something exciting together that you and your spouse wouldn't normally do. It doesn't have to be anything crazy, but it should push you both to have fun and get excited together. Take a romantic vacation together, or just plan a fun and exciting day together - even if it just means going to a carnival or an amusement park. When you and your spouse were dating, you probably flirted with one another all the time. So why did you stop? Most couples get comfortable with one another, which is obviously a good thing. But the downside of getting comfortable is forgetting how to turn on the charm, often because you haven't had to in several months (or even years).  Make eye contact. Smile at your partner and act giggly. Use romantic body language, and mimic your partner's body language.  Stand facing one another, avoid crossing your arms, and lean in towards one another when you speak. Physical contact is an important component of intimacy. Physical contact makes you feel desired, and it can make you feel comfortable and closer with your partner. If you're already very intimate and have a lot of physical contact, then keep doing it. If you've lost that part of your relationship, make an effort to bring it back.  Physical contact doesn't just mean sex (although many people do consider sex a healthy part of marriage). It can mean holding hands, snuggling, embracing, kissing, or any other kind of affectionate contact. Your partner probably wants physical contact as much as you do, but may be too shy or worried...

TL;DR in English: Change up your routine. Flirt with one another. Increase your physical contact. Make time for intimacy. Convey your sexual preferences. Consider seeing a couple's therapist.

Use your fingers to peel the thin, outer membrane off each liver. The membranes will come away easily. Try not to tear the liver as you remove the membranes. Liver is usually sold with the membranes already removed. Place 1 1/2 lb (680 g) of beef or chicken livers on a chopping board. Use a very sharp knife to slice the livers into strips. Be very careful when you use a knife to cut the liver thinly. Always make sure that you are using a sharp knife, as this is both safest and will make the best cuts. cm) slices. Place the onions on a chopping board and use a sharp knife to cut the ends off. Slice each onion in half and peel the skin off. Place the flat surface of each onion on the chopping board and carefully slice each half thinly. Pour ½ cup (64 g) of flour, 1 tsp (2.3 g) of freshly ground black pepper, and ½ tsp (2.5 g) of salt into a bowl. Use a fork to mix the ingredients thoroughly. Season the flour with more or less black pepper and salt depending on what you prefer. Place each slice of liver into the bowl with the flour, black pepper, and salt. Turn each slice over in the bowl to make sure that all of the sides are coated with the seasoned flour. Gently shake each slice of liver as you take it out from the bowl to remove the excess. A light flour coating is all that is necessary.

Eating excessive sweets and fatty foods increases your risk for pre-diabetes and Type 2 diabetes development. You can reverse high-normal blood sugar (pre-diabetes) and reduce your risk for Type 2 Diabetes by reducing unhealthy foods, watching your portions, and eating a balanced diet. Aim for seven to nine daily servings of fruit and vegetables. Frozen and dried fruits and vegetables offer some health benefits, but fresh, in-season produce always packs the most nutritional power. Try to reduce your intake of canned vegetables because they have higher salt content. Deeper colors often mean more nutrients, so it is best to eat a variety of different fruits and vegetables that offer an array of bright colors.  Some produce to focus on includes:  Dark green veggies like broccoli, spinach, kale, and Brussels sprouts Orange veggies like carrots, sweet potatoes, pumpkin, and winter squash Red fruits and vegetables like strawberries, raspberries, beets, and radishes Yellow foods such as squash, mango, and pineapple Skip the pastries, cakes, fries, and other processed carbohydrates. Fill up instead on carbohydrates that are healthy, including fruits, vegetables, whole grain cereals, and fresh breads. Look for choices with high fiber content; fiber has been shown to lower blood sugar by acting as a "mop" slowing down the digestive process and the speed with which glucose enters the bloodstream.  Eat legumes such as black beans, garbanzo beans, kidney beans, pinto beans, split peas, lentils. Select whole grains, whole grain rice, breakfast cereals with 100 percent whole grain content, and whole grain pasta. Choose whole-wheat bread products such as bagels, pita bread, and tortillas. One of the leading sources of empty calories and excess sugar is drinking sugar-laden beverages such as sodas and “juice drinks” with limited juice content. You should aim to quench your thirst with water most of the time. If you're worried about its quality, purchase a filter.  If you are accustomed to drinking sugary drinks, your body...

Buy your pig from a farm supplier or butcher. If possible, have the butcher "dress" the pig and remove the organs and troublesome accessory tissues before taking it home. The pig’s internal cavity should be totally empty to better conduct heat, or to allow you to stuff it should you so desire. You may be able to save a few bucks dressing it yourself, but it will add greatly to your workload.  Pigs come in different weights and sizes. Obviously, the larger the pig, the longer it will take to cook. If you don’t have all day to spend slow roasting, or aren’t feeding as many people, think about buying a small suckling pig. Ask your butcher about the means to transport the pig home. They will often be able to supply zip-up bags that will keep juices from getting all over your car and prevent the meat from being exposed to the open air. If you’ve bought a whole frozen pig, it will need to be thawed before it can be cooked. To thaw a frozen pig carcass, submerge it in a light ice bath and allow it to warm gradually as the ice melts. This can take several days if the pig is large enough. Pig carcasses are often covered in dirt, feces and bacteria, so it will be necessary to clean the pig before cooking it. Wipe down the pig’s extremities and any incisions or openings made by the butcher with a cold, wet towel. If you’re working outside, spraying the pig off with a hose can cut down on your prep time. Sprinkle the carcass liberally with coarse salt and massage it into the skin. Do the same for the inner cavity.  The pig will need a good wiping down even if it has already been cleaned by the butcher shop where you bought it. Salt not only works as a seasoning but has antimicrobial properties which can kill lingering germs. At this point, you can season the pig further, if you wish. Additional spices such as black pepper, cayenne, turmeric, paprika or seasoned salt can be rubbed into the skin, or you might inject a strong marinade or brine underneath the skin using a meat injector. This will impart extra flavor to the...

There are a variety of unpowered, handheld engraving tools you can use. To make detailed pictures, such as you might see in a 19th-century book, select two or three tools for different effects. Here are three common types of traditional, handheld engraving tools:   Spitstickers are used to carve fluid lines.  Gravers produce lines that swell or shrink as you cut, depending on changes in the tool's angle.  Scorpers, with round or square tips, gouge out large areas of the wood to produce white space in the printed image. This tool is probably not necessary if you are not printing. Take a bottle of black pen ink, and use a brush or a cloth to barely cover a flat, wooden block. This will make the areas you've already cut stand out, so it's important not to use so much ink that it soaks down below the surface. Let the ink dry completely. Once it has, check whether there is a rough "nap" to the wood. If there is, remove it by burnishing firmly with a paper towel. A small, leather sandbag makes an excellent support for the wood, providing a firm backing regardless of the direction you push. Clamping the wood to a table is not recommended, since you'll need to move the block around as you engrave. Hold the tool as you would a computer mouse, with your hand lightly cupped around the handle. Press against one side of the metal stem with your index finger, and press the other side with your thumb. Let the heel of the handle rest in your cupped palm; when engraving, you'll push against the heel to provide pressure. Press the tool into the wood at a shallow angle to engrave. Use your other hand to turn the wooden block slowly as you push forward with the tool. Cut no more than 1 centimeter (less than ½ inch) at a time before adjusting the position of your hand. It will likely take some practice before you can cut smoothly.  If the tool quickly embeds itself and halt, the angle is probably too steep.  "Graver" tools can be gradually moved to a steeper or shallower angle to widen or narrow the line drawn. This can take some...

TL;DR in English: Select engraving tools. Apply a thin layer of ink over the wood. Check that the surface is prepared. Support the wood (optional). Hold the engraving tools. Engrave the wood. Experiment with your approach. Add ink to the woodcut. Transfer your design onto paper. Clean your tools.

If you've got too much stuff already, do a declutter. Simply remove as much as possible from your life, including excess clothing, furniture, electronics, and other possessions that aren't critical to your life. If you're forced to downsize due to a job loss or because you're moving, try to see this as a great opportunity to rid yourself of anything weighs you down. If you don't have any stuff, then you're ready to skip this step and move to the next one.   See what you can sell rather than throwing it away. If you don't have the time or fortitude to sell it online, try an auction house. An easier way to sell online than listing individual items is to bulk sell – while you'll get less than if you took the time to sell items individually, you will at least recoup a decent amount for your unwanted possessions. Take all items you no longer want to your local item collection charity. Consider, for example, cutting some services or changing carriers. You'd be amazed at what you can live without once you don't have it anymore. Contact other available carriers in your area for a cell phone quote and select the cheapest one (if it is less than your current plan).  This may include choosing a cheaper data plan and lowering data usage by turning off automatic app updates and other services. If you need to, consider downgrading your phone if you are finding it difficult to keep up with payments on a top-of-the-line smartphone. In many cases, people are paying for channels or services that they don't use. Save money by switching back to a basic package or cutting cable entirely in favor of online streaming services like Netflix. If you want to make the change but fear you'll miss big programs like sporting events, consider watching these events at friends' houses or restaurants instead. You'll save money and get to enjoy the company of your friends at the same time. If you live in a city, there is plenty of public transportation available to get you to your destination and it's cheaper to take the occasional taxi for...

To achieve tight ringlets, you will need to set your hair in small sponge rollers. The first row of rollers will go down the center of your head staring at the front of your scalp and ending at the nape of your neck.  Use a comb to section off a vertical segment of hair at the front of your scalp. This first section should be centered on your head. Do not make it longer than the curler itself or thicker than the curler. A section that is too long or too thick will not remain tightly curled. Unclip your first roller. Place the roller behind the section of hair. Slide the roller up the strand from the roots to the tips so that the hair is standing straight up. Tuck the ends under the roller and proceed to twist it down towards your scalp. Continue to section off your hair and set rollers down the center of your head until your reach the nape of your neck. Once you have completed the top section, you can set rollers on the right and left sides of your head. Work from the front to the center back of each side of your head. Section of the hair and set the rollers as you did for the top section—don’t forget to roll away from your head. Everyone’s curls will set at different rates. If you wet set your hair, leave the rollers in overnight and allow your hair to air dry. If you put rollers in your dry hair, you may opt to leave them in for anywhere from 15 minutes (for a slight wave) to 5 hours—your ringlets will become more defined the longer the rollers are left in your hair. After allowing your curls to set, remove the rollers one at a time. Comb your fingers through the ringlets to fluff and separate the curly strands. Finish your do with a spritz of hairspray or a small dollop of pomade. Brushing or combing through your ringlets will cause them to snarl.

TL;DR in English: Set a row of small rollers down the center of your head. Set the hair on the sides of your head. Allow the curls to set. Take out the rollers and style your hair.

Every school has its own set of rules that help students stay safe and learn well. You may need a hall pass to use the bathroom during class, for example. Learning the rules of the school will help you adjust and will keep you out of trouble. When you are starting a new school, you should follow your teachers' instructions very closely. You don’t need to be a brown-noser, but making a good impression with your teachers will go a long way to making a positive adjustment to a new school. Keeping up with your homework and making a solid effort to do well in school will help with your adjustment. You are already under enough stress with adjusting to a new school that you don’t want to add more stress with poor grades. When you move to a new school, your education so far is assessed and you are placed in your grade. Almost all of the time, this will mean that you are placed in the grade you are expecting (for example, if you left your old school in 4th grade and you’re moving over the summer, you’ll start in 5th grade). If you are in high school, meet with a school counselor to make sure you are on track with prerequisites and graduation requirements. When you are adjusting to a new school, you might feel lonely or shy. But every day, there are good things that happen, even if they are minor. Telling your parents about these things can help you realize that you are getting used to your school. Examples include: getting a good score on a test, saying hello to someone new, scoring a goal in PE, and so on.

Use a scrap of denim on the opposite side to the patch to prevent the patch sticking to the other side of the jeans and potentially sticking the two sides together.

Prepare the hole you are going to patch. Place a piece of scrap denim on the other side of the hole.

Random branch evergreens like junipers, arborvitae, yews, and hemlocks usually sprout new branches with flat needles during the spring. You can prune them for size once or twice annually, but you should leave behind at least one-third of new growth during each pruning.  The needles on areas of new growth tend to be softer and lighter in color. Leaving some new growth behind is beneficial for the health of the evergreen. As the name indicates, random branch evergreens grow in less naturally-structured shapes than do pines, spruces, or firs. This means you may want to be a bit more aggressive in shaping them to suit your aesthetic preferences.  You can shear random branch evergreens several (e.g., 2-3) times during the spring and summer, if you wish. However, as you shear and prune for shape, make sure to leave behind some of the new growth. Random branch evergreens don’t need to be shaped, and will do just fine if you let them grow naturally. Most random branch evergreens develop an area in the center where there are no needles, due to the lack of sunlight. If you prune back to this “dead zone,” new growth will not occur there and you’ll end up with a bare patch. When pruning for size or shape, work with what you have instead of trying to force your evergreen into a specific look. For instance, try to find the beauty in the “randomness” of your upright juniper!

TL;DR in English: Remove up to two-thirds of new growth to control their size. Prune or shear them for shape in spring and summer. Don’t prune them back to the “dead zone” in the middle.

Another easy alternative to sewing in a patch is to get an iron-on patch and use that instead. As always, begin by cutting away excess threads so the hole is clear, before turning your jeans inside out and preparing the patch you are going to iron on to your jeans. Measure the hole with a tape measure and cut the patch to size ensuring that there is a clearance of at least ½ inch around the hole.  You can measure this by eye, but by using a tape measure, you are less likely to get it wrong and end up wasting a patch by cutting it too small. Cutting rounded corners on the patch will help prevent it peeling up. Whether you are adding the patch to the outside or the inside of the jeans, using a scrap of denim on the opposite side to the patch will prevent the patch sticking to the other side of the jeans and potentially sticking the two sides together. This could seal your jeans shut and you might damage them if you then have to tear the leg open again.

For the hash browns, you'll need 3 medium russet potatoes. Use a vegetable peeler to remove the skin, and grate the potatoes with a box grater so they're shredded.  You can substitute sweet potatoes for the russet potatoes if you prefer. If you prefer, you can leave the skin on the potatoes. You can also use a shredder attachment on your food processor to grate the potatoes. If you want your hash browns to be extra crispy, soak the potatoes in cold water after shredding them to help release some of the starch. Drain them well, and pat dry with paper towel before you cook them, though. Place a large skillet on the stove, and turn the burner to medium-high. Allow the pan to heat for 5 to 7 minutes or until it is hot. For the best results, use a cast-iron skillet to make the hash browns. Once the skillet is hot, add 2 tablespoons (26 g) of coconut oil, ¼ cup (40 g) of finely diced yellow onion, and ⅓ cup (60 g) of finely diced red bell pepper. Allow the mixture to cook for about 1 minute to heat it through.  You can substitute ghee for the coconut oil if you prefer. If you like, you can use a combination of red and yellow bell peppers. After you've cooked the onion and peppers for a minute, add the shredded potatoes to the skillet. Allow the mixture to cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the edges begin to brown. Be sure to spread the potatoes in an even layer across the skillet so they cook properly. When the hash browns have cooked for several minutes, use a wide spatula to begin flipping the potato mixture over. Work section by section until you've turned all of it over, and allow the hash browns to cook until they are golden brown, which should take approximately 5 to 7 minutes. You may need to flip the potatoes over more than once to cook them properly on both sides. When the hash browns are finished cooking, use the spatula to carefully lift them out of the skillet. Place them on a platter, and serve with your favorite breakfast foods.  The recipes makes 4 to 5 servings of hash browns. Store leftover hash...

Read some existing nature poetry. Spend time in nature. Write your observations.

Anytime you're connecting or disconnecting an effects pedal, you need to cut the power to everything in the chain. While the power cables can and should be plugged in to each separate unit, the units themselves should be switched off. Make sure the amp and each pedal are switched off when you connect them.  There is one exception to this rule though - if you are using a tube or valve amp.  In this case, you want to keep the amp turned on but put the amp in standby mode using the standby switch.  Trying to connect live circuits can result in shorts, as well as loud pops and feedback bursts that will come through the amp. It'll shorten the life of all the components in your rig. Don't do it. The biggest thing to avoid is powering on a pedal, connecting it, then powering on the amplifier. This is a fast-track to a short. To make sure the pedals and the amp are off before you connect them, you'll need to have them plugged in. Connect both your pedal and your amp to power and switch them on and off to make sure. Some guitar pedals will come with 9-volt A/C adapters, while others will be battery-operated, though most feature both options. For most guitar players, batteries are nice because it's one less thing to plug in, but are a hassle because batteries die and are expensive. Most pedals will have only two jacks, one labeled "Input," and another labeled "Output." These jacks are usually located on opposite sides of the pedal's body, depending on the unit, and are built to accept a standard quarter-inch (6 mm) audio cable. Locate the input and output jacks on the guitar pedal, then connect your guitar to the jack labeled "input." All the inputs and outputs can get confusing for the beginner. Remember: the audio signal is generated by your guitar's pickups, from where it travels to the amp through the cable. So, the guitar should always be connected to the input jack of the pedal, because this reflects the direction in which the signal travels. You play a sound on the guitar, then it travels “in” to the pedal,...

TL;DR in English: Turn everything off. Hook your amplifier and pedal up to power. Connect your guitar to the input jack. Connect the output jack on the pedal to the input of the amplifier. Turn the amplifier on first and set your levels. Turn down the effect knobs before switching it on. Experiment with the pedal. Always unplug cables when you're finished playing.

Great writers read extensively. Reading nature poetry that's already been published by successful poets can give you ideas, inspiration, and can open your eyes to what's possible in a nature poem.  A good place to find nature poetry is the Academy of American Poets website. You can search for poets, or use the website's filter to find all works categorized as nature poems.  Search for poems by poets known for their nature-based works. Gary Snyder, for example, is an American poet who's been writing about nature for much of his life. Romantic poets such as Percy Bysshe Shelley, Lord Byron, and John Keats are also known to include nature in their poetry.  Check your library for published books of nature poetry, anthologies, and nature-themed literary journals. If you're interested in writing a poem about nature, the best way to start is by going out into nature. Whether you go for a short walk, a long camping trip, or anything in between, getting outdoors will help you find inspiration and imagery.  In contemporary times, nature takes many forms. You don't have to go out to the countryside or deep in a forest to find inspiration - try visiting an urban park if you can't get into the wilderness.  Consider seeking inspiration where the natural world meets the pavement. Even remote forests wouldn't be accessible without roads to lead you there - perhaps you can find something inspiring in that transitional zone. When you're out in nature (however you define it), you should begin to feel inspired or creative as you take in your surroundings. It's okay if it doesn't come to you right away - you can always analyze your thoughts/feelings later.  As you observe the natural world around you, begin by noticing what you see, hear, smell, and feel. Next, try to draw associations from the things you're observing. What do your observations remind you of in your own life? Why do you notice the things you do in nature? You can take another step back and consider where you first learned to interact with nature. Don't worry...

If you want this option, look to see if it has been toggled (a blue check mark would be in the box next to it). The second option is called Secondary Click. This is similar to right-clicking. You can use the default option of just two fingers or a special option, which is offered in a drop-down box. The video on the right will show you how to use this option. The Look Up option is useful for when you need to define a certain word on a site. You hover over the word and tap three fingers at once to bring up the dictionary term. Three-finger drag is useful for quickly moving windows around on your screen while you are working. If you decide to use it, remember your cursor has to be on the window you want to move, and it must be a currently selected window. Tracking speed is how fast the cursor follows your movements. It's suggested to adjust the speed, as you feel necessary. Everyone is different—some like the cursor to be slower than their fingers, some like it to move faster than their fingers. Test a few speeds and adjust to how you feel.

TL;DR in English: Adjust the Point & Click settings.

The North Star is more reliable than a compass, which can be affected by environmental factors and periodic variations. If you can find north by locating the North Star and your compass tells you something different, follow the direction the North Star leads you. Where the North Star appears in the sky depends on your latitude. At the North Pole, the North Star appears directly overhead, but at the equator, it would appear on the horizon – both corresponding to the latitudes of the location. If you use the “fist” method and count how many “fists” the North Star appears over the horizon, that will give you your latitude. Remember that a “fist” counts as approximately 10 degrees for latitude. Use the North Star to guide you in a direction, or at the very least, to keep you from going in circles if you are lost. Think about where you are and which direction would be the most helpful, especially if you are lost in the wilderness and need to get back to civilization.  Once you have found the North Star, facing it will point you due north. If you face directly away from it, you'll be facing due south.  When you are facing the North Star, stretch your arms out to your sides. Your left hand will be pointing due west and your right hand will be pointing due east.

Choose your starter wisely. Have an HM Slave. Train your Pokémon to be at least lvl.

An epilator is made of many many tweezers that pluck out the hair, and can remove your hair for up to two weeks on average. Epilators are painful and more time consuming than shaving, but because it removes the entire hair follicle the results will last much longer. Instead of cutting the hair, an epilator has grooves and small indents where, as you run it up your body it grips the hair and pulls it out at the root. Epilators, however can cause a lot of problems with ingrown hairs - be sure to use a hair reduction cream like Depil or Vanish PFB after use. Epilators cannot reach into creases or wrinkles, but they may grab exposed skin painfully. Use one hand to pull your skin tight as you use it.  Wet epilation requires submerging the machine and skin underwater during use. Dry epilation requires clean, dry skin. Multiple passes and directions may be used to achieve best results by removing the most hair (not all hair grows in the same direction). If irritation occurs, apply an astringent/analgesics (such as Tend Skin) and follow up with lotion to soften and soothe skin.  Redness may appear for the first 24 hours following epilation. Plan to perform hair removal at least a day before scheduled events. Tweezing the hair can be very time consuming, especially if on a larger body part, however it is very effective in reducing and stopping hair growth on your face. Pulling hair out individually ensures that you are pulling the hair out from the root. While it can be painful, it is also the cheapest form of hair removal. You can't shave or 'wax' your eyebrows. Most people use a pair of tweezers to pull all the hairs out individually. Use a bright light to see all your eyebrow hairs.

TL;DR in English: Consider epilating. Pull your skin taut. Move the epilator across the skin in the direction opposite hair growth. Use tweezers for small areas of body hair. Pluck your eyebrows with tweezers.

Turtwig evolves into Torterra, which is good at attack and defense but horrible at its special attack. However, it can learn Dark-type moves like Bite and Crunch, which could save one of your Pokémon slots as you do not need a Dark-type. Chimchar evolves into Infernape which is a decent Pokémon. Piplup evolves into Empoleon which is a Steel and Water-type. A good mixture of types as being a Water-type, Fire-type moves would not be super effective even though it is a Steel-type. Do not use an HM and ruin a Pokémon with a good moveset. Instead get another Pokémon that is pretty much useless to be an "HM slave". It is recommended that you choose Bidoof, which evolves into Bibarel, as it can learn most of the HM except Fly and Rock Climb. 65-70 so you can get pass the Elite Four much easier.

Take inventory of your body. Ask about whether you have any range of motion restrictions. Try swimming if you have joint problems. Be active if you’ve survived cancer. Take it really slow if you’ve had a cardiac event. Monitor your blood sugar if you have diabetes.

If you find mature termites, there are probably larvae somewhere in the colony. While there are a few different types of adult termite, you can typically identify them by their pale, soft bodies. Worker and nymph termites look like larger versions of the larvae while soldiers have a dark, hardened head. Only the reproductive termites that lay eggs have wings. While you may need a professional exterminator to find most termites, you can do a basic check inspection to see if you can notice any signs of infestation. Start by inspecting window sills, window and door frames, support beams, and places where concrete structures join wooden ones. You should also check in the basement, in crawl spaces, under the porch, and anywhere that moisture is present. Use a flashlight to peer into cracks and dark spaces. Note that termites often live deep within the walls, and they can infest a home for years without being noticed. Just because there are no external signs of termites does not mean that you do not have them. Using a screwdriver, gently tap the wood or surface of a wall. Listen for any hollow or rustling noises coming from inside the wood. This may indicate that there is something living inside the wood. Termites may build mud tubes to travel between areas of their colony. These may look like branches or lines of mud crawling up the wall or foundation. You can break a tube open to see if there are any termites inside. Note that if a tube is empty, it may still mean that there are termites elsewhere in the building. Termites can live deep within a structure, and they often keep their larvae within the most protected parts of their nest. To measure the extent of the problem, you should consult with a professional pest control company. They will be able to tell you if you have termites or another pest. They can also identify the larvae for you.  Contract a reputable company and explore a liquid barrier treatment or the installation of termite bait stations. If there are any areas where moisture is building up, they...

TL;DR in English: Identify adult termites. Inspect areas where termites live. Listen to the walls. Break open mud tubes. Hire an exterminator.

What activities are safe and beneficial for you will depend on what illness you’ve recovered from and what your health status is. If you’re getting back to working out after an extensive knee surgery but are otherwise healthy, you’ll want to do different activities than if you’ve been bedridden for 6 months. When in doubt, ask your doctor what your limitations should be. The range of motion of a joint is how far in what directions a joint can move, and this should sometimes be limited after surgery. For instance, after shoulder surgery your doctor or physical therapist may advise you that you need to avoid reaching overhead until you’re healed. Be sure you understand what movements are safe for you to do before you start exercising. Swimming is a non-weight bearing cardiovascular exercise – in other words, it gets your heart rate up for a good workout without putting stress on your joints. If you’re recovering from knee, hip, or shoulder surgery, swimming can be a great way to start. Swimming and aqua aerobics are also beneficial exercises if you have arthritis or problems with balance like after a stroke. For painful joints, also do isometric exercises of the surrounding muscles. Isometric exercises are those that tighten and release the muscle, which makes it stronger. For instance, if your knee is weak or painful, work to strengthen your quadriceps muscles. The American Cancer Society recommends that those living disease-free or with stable disease exercise regularly. Numerous studies have shown that exercise not only improves wellbeing, mental health, strength, and physical wellness, it may decrease recurrence rates in some types of cancer. Make a goal to exercise for 150 minutes each week or longer, and do strength training 2 days each week.  Always consult your doctor or care team before starting an exercise program. Cancer survivors have some specific needs and limitations during exercise. For instance, chlorinated pools may irritate skin if you’ve had radiation therapy, using heavy weights may be...

Talk to them. Gently shake the person. Make a loud noise.

Your husband may start being subtly passive aggressive without him even noticing it. The trick is to pick up on the behaviors before things spiral out of control. You may notice him slipping in his responsibilities ever so slightly, procrastinating more than usual, or finding excuses for things. When you notice these signs, you can disengage from the conflict before more overt passive aggression comes forth. While your first reaction may be to nag him or explode on him for his behavior, resist the urge to do so. You may turn into a parent role, which won’t go well for you or your husband. It’s unlikely you want to parent your husband, and it’s unlikely he wants to be placed in the child role in your marriage. If you feel yourself about to react, stop yourself and take a moment. Think about the way you feel and what thoughts are going through your head. Take a deep breath before saying anything. Don’t play his game. If you start in on the passive aggressiveness, then you will cycle the behavior until both of you are utterly unhappy. Instead, approach him in saying, “We have a problem that we need to work through.” If he is chronically late, say, “We have a difficulty getting out of the house in time when we have places to be. What do you think would be helpful in ensuring we get places on time?” Maybe his lines used to work in guilting you or accepting blame, but put an end to it. Don’t let these tactics work on you any longer. If he says, “I’m not mad” but clearly is, make a request for him to be honest with you and share how he is feeling. If he says, “I was only joking”, make sure you communicate that those kind of jokes are disrespectful and not appreciated. If he says, “Why are you so mad?” Communicate clearly that his behavior is upsetting. “When you don’t communicate with me, it’s really frustrating. I’d like to know what’s going on that feels challenging to you.”

TL;DR in English: Notice the warning signs. Avoid escalating the conflict. Be assertive. Stand firm.

Someone who is asleep will respond to stimuli. One way to determine if someone is sleeping is by talking to them. Kneel or bend next to the person and gently say their name, tell them to open their eyes, or ask them if they are all right. Repeat this for five minutes or until the person wakes up. For example, “Jim, are you awake? If you can hear me, open your eyes. Jim?” Place your hand on their shoulder and gently shake them. You can do this in combination with saying their name or asking if they are awake. Do not shake them aggressively, shake their head, slap, or flick their face. You can also try gently rubbing their cheek or head/forehead to wake the person up. Turning on the radio or TV, closing the door, loudly tapping on something, or playing an instrument may prompt someone to wake up, as well. However, do not play or make loud noises too close to the person’s ear. This may startle the person or cause damage to their hearing.

Make sure that both Shih Tzus are healthy. Make sure your female Shih Tzu is ready for breeding. Choose the right stud. Work out a stud contract. Pair the Shih Tzus. Confirm the female's pregnancy. Prepare for the whelping.

Place a 2–2 1⁄2 lb (0.91–1.13 kg) rack of ribs on a cutting board. Use a sharp knife to trim away any unwanted fat or membranes. Then, carefully cut the rack of ribs into serving portions that are 2-3 ribs each.  If you do not want to trim and portion the ribs yourself, ask your local butcher if they would mind prepping the rack of ribs for you. Remember to wash your hands before and after handling the raw meat to avoid cross-contamination.

TL;DR in English: Trim unwanted fat from a rack of ribs and cut it into portions of 2-3 ribs each.

You must make sure that both the female (dam) and male (sire) are healthy and genetically fit for breeding, and that their vaccinations are current. Testing should be done for conditions that the Shih Tzu breed is prone to, such as heritable eye diseases, Hip Dysplasia, Renal Dysplasia, thyroid disorders, and hearing loss. Once a dog is cleared of one of these conditions, it can be registered with the appropriate registry (e.g. once a dog is tested and cleared of heritable eye diseases, it can be registered with the the local Canine Eye Registry).> The female Shih Tzu should get a thorough pre-breeding physical examination by a veterinarian about a month before breeding begins. Ideally, your Shih Tzu should have her first litter after her second heat cycle but before she's reached the age of 4. Because of health risks, dogs older than 7 should not be bred. Female Shih Tzus stay in heat (i.e. the period in a dog’s reproductive cycle when she is receptive to mating) for approximately 16 days, but are usually not receptive to males on the first day of this period. If a female is not ready to mate, she will run from or avoid a male; if she is ready, she will stay and move her tail to the side to signal her readiness. Put up flyers, take out a classified ad, or look online for possible studs. Remember that, as a general rule, a male should be smaller than the female Shih Tzu it  breeds with by a pound or two. It should also complement your female Shih Tzu in terms of attributes and qualities, and offer genetic strengths that will result in strong, quality offspring (e.g.  a good coat). Before breeding occurs, you should work out a contract with the stud's owner outlining obligations, fees, and payment. Stud fees can run between $250-$1000, depending on the quality of the male. but some contracts will outline other forms of payment to the stud's owner (e.g. the pick of the litter in lieu of cash payment). Both parties should sign and keep a copy of the contract. Given that females are more comfortable in new...

The line between being an employee and being a subcontractor can get pretty hazy in many circumstances. The sticking points tend to be the amount of control the prime contractor/employer asserts over how you do the work. If needed, consult an attorney for clarification, or contact a taxing body such as the IRS in the U.S.  According to the IRS, for instance, the criteria for drawing the line between an employee and a subcontractor rests on 3 components: the amount of behavioral control the prime contractor/employer asserts (that is, how the work is done); the amount of financial control you have over the work you do; and the way in which the parties view the relationship (as per their contract and actual interactions). If you are determined to be an employee, you’ll likely be eligible for benefits and workplace protections, but also be subject to tax withholding and greater control by your employer. As a subcontractor, you’ll receive payment from the prime contractor, who in turn receives payment from the client. Make sure it is clearly stated in your contract when you’ll be paid in relation to when the prime contractor is paid by the client. Otherwise, you might be stuck in limbo waiting to be paid for work you’ve already done.  For instance, if the prime contractor’s contract with the client states that they will be paid within 14 days of the completion of the job, your contract might state that you’ll be paid within 7 days of the prime contractor receiving payment. If possible, negotiate a contract that stipulates that you’ll be paid within a certain time frame (e.g., within 7 days of completing your part of the job) regardless of when or if the client pays the prime contractor. As a subcontractor, you should be given fairly wide latitude to do the job in the manner you see fit, so long as you meet the requirements of the contract. That said, some prime contractors take a more hands-on approach than others, so you should clearly discuss this beforehand—and, if possible, clarify it in your contract. If...

TL;DR in English: Get legal confirmation that you're a subcontractor, if necessary. Establish clearly how and when you will be paid. Determine how much supervision and input the prime contractor wants. Build a great word-of-mouth reputation by excelling at your work.

Real rubies glow with a deep, vivid, almost "stoplight" red. Fake gems are often dull: they are "light, but not bright." If the gem is more of a dark red, then it may be garnet instead of a ruby. If it is a real ruby, however, know that darker stones are usually worth more than lighter stones.  Check for a consistent and even color throughout the stone. Fakes are more likely to contain blemishes and impure spots. That said: rubies do sometimes have imperfections. Use the "stoplight red" as a guide, but do not expect to find a real ruby that is actually that bright. If you do, then the ruby is likely fake. A real ruby should be more like a bright traffic light, however, than like a dull stone. Rubies and other varieties of sapphire are often faked as glass. If the glass and stone look similar, then you may just be holding two pieces of red glass! It is relatively common for dealers to fake rubies using a glass composite. Real rubies are extremely hard stones. Grind a fingernail or a coin into the surface of the "ruby" and see if you are able to scratch it. If the ruby shows a scratch, then there's a good chance that it is not a real ruby. Only a diamond can scratch a ruby. Composite rubies are not as durable as real rubies. There is a chance that the ruby is not a complete "fake," and just a machine-made stone. Gently scratch the stone against a hard, smooth surface: porcelain tile or a piece of clear glass. The stone should scratch the surface whether or not it is a "ruby." The tip-off, however, comes if the "ruby" leaves a red mark on the surface where you scratched it. The red mark might be a sign that the gem is artificially colored. It might tell you that the "gem" is actually made from a much weaker material. The stones commonly used as ruby imitations include garnets, tourmaline, glass, and composite gems.  Garnets are dull, dark-red silicate minerals. They are much softer than a ruby. Tourmaline is a reddish-pink silicate mineral. Tourmaline is somewhat harder than a garnet, but much softer than the...

To replace shingles, you'll obviously need shingles to replace the ones you remove and the materials necessary to secure. Most shingles that are in need of replacement are three-tab asphalt shingles. If your roof involves some other variety of shingle, you'll need to match your new shingles to the old. To complete the job properly, you'll need:  Replacement shingles. Buy more than you'll need at the home repair store. You should be able to count up how many damaged shingles will need replacement and buy accordingly. It's good to have replacements on hand. Shingle cement or adhesive. Some shingles come with adhesive strips pre-installed, making this unnecessary. If you buy unbacked shingles, though, you might need to purchase additional adhesive to secure them to the roof before nailing them. It's a good idea to buy it to secure other loose shingles anyway. Roofing nails. Most three-tab shingles will be pre-cut with guide holes that will make the installation process very simple. To secure them, you'll need roofing nails, which are heavy-duty, and about two or three inches long. Place a new shingle in the same position as the shingle you removed. If the shingles are backed with adhesive strip, remove the covering and push them into place, then nail them to secure them. Most shingles have pre-cut holes for nails, usually three per shingle. Follow the directions of the shingles that you purchase, or use the other shingles on the roof as a guide. Lift each tab slightly on the shingles as you install them, and apply a 1" (2.5 cm) diameter spot of shingle cement under each tab. Press tabs down into the cement firmly and secure the shingle into place. Continue installing shingles and securing them with adhesive accordingly, until you've installed all the damaged shingles along the row. After you've finished the damage portion, you can start working your way back up the roof, retailing the loose shingles into place, as long as they're in good shape, and using the adhesive to secure them back onto the roof.

Don't travel to high-risk countries if you are in this group and/or don't bring young children with you.

Be very cautious of underdeveloped tropical areas. Be particularly careful if your immune system is weak. Avoid contaminated blood. Take preventative measures if traveling to at-risk areas.

Most people really like to talk about themselves. It feels good when someone is genuinely interested in your opinion and experiences and wants you to share those things. Ask about his hobbies or his favorite bands and movies. People tend to have a very positive opinion about people who ask them questions about themselves. Make sure you weigh in, too. The conversation shouldn't be all about him. Share your own thoughts and opinions (and don't feel you always have to agree with him). You may think that flirting up a storm with other guys will show him that you're desirable and have other options, but playing hard to get rarely works. Research shows that we are more attracted to people who are selective. So if you're in a group and none of the other guys seem to hold your attention, but you have a big smile just for your crush, you're going to catch his interest. This doesn't mean you have to be rude, mean, or ignore other guys. But if you were thinking about flirting with someone just to make your crush jealous, you might want to think again. If he knows everything about you right off the bat, he'll lose the fun and anticipation of slowly getting to know what makes you tick. So hold back a little bit. Don't call, message, or text him constantly. Give him the time and room to think and wonder about you. Let him be curious about you and what you're doing. Don't ignore him or be rude, but don't always be available.

The biggest risk factor for coming down with malaria is either living in or traveling to tropical countries where the infection is common.  The most risky areas are African countries south of the Sahara Desert, most of the Asian subcontinent, Haiti, Solomon Islands and Papua New Guinea.  The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimate that 90% of all malaria deaths occur in Africa — mostly in kids younger than five years. Approximately 1,500 cases of malaria are diagnosed in the U.S. each year, mostly in returned travelers. People with immature or weakened immune systems are especially susceptible of getting infected by Plasmodium parasites and developing malaria. This group includes infants, children younger than five years, pregnant women, the elderly and patients with HIV/AIDS. As such, don't travel to high-risk countries if you are in this group and/or don't bring young children with you.  Strong immune systems can fight off malarial infections, which means the majority of people bitten by infected mosquitoes either don't get the disease or develop only mild short-term symptoms. Supplements that can boost your immune system include: vitamins A, C and D, zinc, selenium, echinacea, olive leaf extract and astragalus root. Be aware that these will not prevent malaria or its consequences. The Plasmodium parasites that cause malaria primarily infect the liver, but also the red blood cells within blood. Consequently, people can also catch malaria by being exposed to contaminated (infected) blood. Common modes of transmission due to contaminated blood include blood transfusions, sharing needles to inject drugs and childbirth (from an infected mother to her unborn child).  Hemophiliacs and people who lose lots of blood from injuries are at higher risk of malaria from blood transfusions, particularly if they life in Africa or Asia. Malaria is not considered an STD (sexually transmitted disease), although there is a small chance of contracting it via sexual practices if the blood from one partner...

Pedigrees can be laid out in a variety of orientations. Assess whether the chart is oriented either vertically or horizontally on the page. Look at the orientation of the words to understand which direction it should be held. The lines on a pedigree can indicate biological or personal relationships. On a pedigree that is oriented vertically, a horizontal line connecting two individuals indicates a reproductive relationship, such as a marriage. A line that connects individuals vertically indicates the biological relationship of parent and child.  On a pedigree that is oriented horizontally the vertical lines indicate a reproductive relationship and the horizontal lines indicate the relationship of parent and child. Two short lines crossing a horizontal line typically indicate the end of a committed relationship. A pedigree is typically organized so that each generation of people or animals is positioned in a separate row. For example, your subject and all of their siblings will be located on the same row. The subject's parents and all of their siblings will be on the same row. These generational rows will continue on as far back as the pedigree goes.  These generational rows are not shown with actual row lines per se. They are just shown through the position of these subjects on the page next to each other. On some genetic pedigrees there may also be roman numerals off to the side that indicate the specific generations. There are a few symbols on a genetic pedigree that are generally used. In particular, there are standard symbols used to distinguish between male and female subjects. If a person or animal is female, they will be represented with a circle. If a person or animal is a male, they will be represented with a square. Whether a square or circle is filled in gives you key information. A filled in circle or square indicates that the presence of a trait. An empty circle or square indicates the absence of a trait. In some cases there will be circles or squares half filled in. This indicates that the...

Avoid using photo paper; it is too thick, and there's that the colors may run. You can try using this method on regular photos as well, but be aware that you may damage them. Trace the side of the item onto the photo first, if needed. Next, cut the photo down with a paper slicer or a metal ruler and craft blade. You can do this using a foam brush or a wide, flat paintbrush. If you want to, you can also brush the Mod Podge onto the back of the photo as well. Smooth the paper out with a rubber roller or a brayer to smooth the photo down. Start from the center of the photo and roll your way outwards. Ensure that there are no wrinkles or bubbles. Extend the Mod Podge past the edges of the photo to help seal it in. Don't worry, you will be adding more coat of Mod Podge on top. Wait for about 30 minutes, then brush on a second coat of Mod Podge. If need to add a third coat, let the second one dry first. This will take anywhere from a few hours to several days, depending what you used. Read the label on your bottle to be sure. Once the Mod Podge has dried, you can display your project. If you are going to apply photos to the other sides of your item, now is the time to do so.

Identify ways in which you produce carbon dioxide. Calculate your carbon footprint. Drive less. Save Insulate and seal windows and doors. Buy locally grown foods. Reduce waste at home and at work. Limit unnecessary purchases.

A driving rehabilitation specialist can observe you driving and help you find ways to develop more ergonomic habits. If your profession involves driving, talk to your employer or union representative. Contact your local jurisdiction's department of driver services for more information about driver rehabilitation. You can also find resources on the Association for Driver Rehabilitation Specialists website. Ask your primary care doctor to examine the affected area. They can offer pain management tips, a prescription medication, or refer you to a specialist. Check with your insurer to make sure any medication or specialist care is covered and in-network to avoid unexpected medical bills. Ask your doctor or specialist if your arm pain indicates any potential muscle, bone, or joint issues. Frequent driving or improper driving habits can result in issues like carpal tunnel syndrome, rotator cuff injuries, repetitive strain injury, or bursitis.  Driving can also cause and aggravate arthritis, especially in older adults. Describe the motions that cause pain, the affected areas, and whether the pain is dull or sharp. Ask your doctor or specialist, “Are my symptoms signs of any chronic disorders? Will medication or physical therapy be effective treatment options?” If your pain continues despite adopting ergonomic driving habits, your doctor can recommend a variety of treatments. Common options include anti-inflammatory or anti-pain medication and physical therapy. Depending on the severity of your case, your doctor may also recommend other treatments, such as cortisone injections, steroid injections, or surgery.

TL;DR in English: Consult a driving rehabilitation specialist. Make an appointment with your primary doctor. Ask about musculoskeletal disorders. Discuss your treatment options.

You can't reduce your carbon emissions if you don't know where they're coming from. Once you've identified sources of carbon dioxide production in your daily life, you can come up with ways to reduce your dependency on those sources.  Driving is the main source of most people’s carbon dioxide emissions. Other sources include air travel and household energy consumption. You also should look at the products you buy and use. If they were shipped long distances to get to you, carbon emissions were involved in their transport. Carbon emissions also occur when products are built in factories. If you buy those products, you are also contributing to carbon emissions that way. Make a list of the ways in which you produce carbon dioxide, like driving, air travel, and household energy consumption. Then, search online for a carbon footprint calculator that you can use to get a rough estimate of the size of your carbon footprint.  Just do a search for "carbon footprint calculator" online, or check the website of a nonprofit environmental organization to see if there's one they recommend. Since these calculators may vary in their methodologies, you may want to use more than one and average the results. The more information the calculator allows you to enter, the closer to reality the estimate will be. Since driving typically makes up a large portion of your carbon footprint, one easy way to reduce your carbon dioxide emissions directly is to use your car less. Take public transportation, walk, or ride a bike when you can.  Try to do multiple errands at once so you take fewer trips, and start a carpool at work. There are ways you can increase the fuel efficiency of your car, or you may want to consider living without a car altogether. If you're in the market for a new car, you can reduce your carbon footprint by buying one that is hybrid or fully electric. on heating and electricity in your home. The carbon dioxide produced by the electricity or other fuel that you use to light and heat your home is another big source of...

Fill the saucepan with room temperature water. Place the unopened can in a medium or large saucepan. Bring the water to a simmer over high heat.

Revenge comes from feeling diminished by your aggressor and subsequently, you feel ashamed that you allowed this to happen. Such feelings may cause you to feel angry, leading to your desire to seek revenge.  Emotions are felt physically, so recognizing the physical signs of each emotion can help you get them under control. For example, when you are angry, your blood pressure rises and heat radiates from your shoulders through the back of your head. Your emotions can drive your decision making by creating a deeper connection to each decision. When you are feeling angry, you might make more rash decisions than if you felt happy. Putting your feelings into words can help you come to terms with them and clarify your thoughts. Writing down your feelings can help reduce the intensity of your feelings, and help lessen your deep-seated desire for revenge. If you do not like to write you feelings down on paper, try talking to someone about your emotions. Find a trusted friend or family member and tell them exactly what is going on: how you feel, who was involved, the reasons for wanting revenge, how you think revenge will make you feel, etc... . Go to a quiet room, sit on the floor, close your eyes and focus on taking slow, deep breaths. While you are meditating, try to empty your mind of all negative thoughts and concentrate on positive things in your life. Mediation has been scientifically shown to reduce stress and may be a great coping mechanism for your desires for revenge. It can slow your thoughts and help you feel calm and centered. Your emotions may become overwhelming and difficult to handle. At times like these, try repeating positive affirmations to yourself to remind you that even though you aren’t in control of the situation, you are in control of your response. These are some mantras you could try repeating to yourself:  “Things could be worse.” “I will take charge of my response to this person’s actions.” “I can make it through this.” “This is only temporary.”

TL;DR in English: Understand the basic emotions. Write down your feelings. Meditate Repeat self-calming statements.

Make sure the can is fully immersed and that there’s an extra two inches (five cm) of water covering the can. This will prevent the can from overheating and possibly exploding, and prevent the milk from burning. By placing the can on its side, you will prevent it from bouncing around as the water boils. When it begins to simmer, turn it down to medium heat and allow to simmer for two to three hours (two hours for a lighter dulce de leche, or three hours if you want the sauce thicker and darker). Check on the can every 30 minutes. Turn the can every half hour to prevent scorching. Top up the water as needed to ensure there’s always one to two extra inches (two-and-a-half to five cm) of water covering the can.

Walk up to a stranger, smile, and say “Hi. Give them your number. Get a friend to tell them you think they’re cute. Start dancing with them if you’re at a party. Ask “Are you single?

They will not consider whether or not you have time to engage with them. They will just assume they deserve your energy.  A narcissist will expect from you whatever they expect or want for themselves. They will assume your needs and wants are the same as theirs, and therefore be very demanding of your attention. For example, if you're in a relationship with a narcissist, they may assume you're going out or staying in on any given night to suit their needs. They will become angry and even hostile if you express your need for alone time or socialization independent of them. They may be unable to understand that they do not deserve your constant attention. If you're a narcissistic extension, a narcissist sees you as an extension of themselves.

During the hike, you becoming increasingly panicked and uncomfortable as you get higher in the mountains. Your girlfriend does not seem concerned about your requests to stop.

” If you’re crushing on someone you don’t know, a great way to express your interest is by simply approaching them. After you say hi, tell them your name and ask them theirs. Continue smiling as you come up with small talk questions, such as “What grade are you in?” or “Do you come here often?” Most people will understand the signal that a stranger approaching them and starting a conversation means that they’re interested. If they make eye contact with you and smile back, they may be interested in you too. Continue talking with them until you feel it’s a good time to ask them out. This is a way to let someone know you’re interested in them without coming out and saying it. Write your name and number down a piece of paper, fold it, and hand it to them. Then smile and walk away. If your crush is interested you, they’ll call or text you. If not, and they are someone you don’t see regularly, you won’t have to worry about it again! This is another way to give a signal that you’re interested without having to uncomfortably wait for a reaction. It works well whether you already know the person or not.

Parties are great places to meet people, and if you spot someone you’re attracted to who’s dancing, walk up to them and start dancing with them. If they’re interested, they’ll keep dancing with you and possibly talk to you. If not, they’ll probably wander away from you shortly.

Do you have a favorite scary movie, or a favorite spooky character? Do you like zombies, or ghosts, or ghouls? Create a theme around that!  Your theme can dictate the kinds of costumes your guests wear. For example, you might host a Dead Rock Star party, where everyone must come dressed as their favorite dead rock star.

While many cats are placid, easygoing, and like to sleep a lot, a Siamese is not this type of cat. In certain ways, having a Siamese is much more like owning a dog. Siamese cats are strong-willed and intelligent. If the Siamese sets its sights on doing something then they will do it regardless of the obstacles or consequences. Because of their intelligence and stubbornness, Siamese cats are very difficult to train. For example, a Siamese may ignore unpleasant experiences such as being squirted with water, which makes it difficult to deter them from bad behavior. A regular cat may chirp and purr sometimes, but the Siamese yowls and howls. A Siamese may keep howling and yowling for hours if it wants something. The Siamese cat’s howl is loud and quite annoying, which is what makes it so difficult to ignore Think about whether a noisy cat would annoy you or comfort you. If you want a cat because you are out a lot, then getting a Siamese cat may not be your best option. Siamese cats need attention and they will howl or destroy the place if they don't get it. These cats are needy and they demand your attention. If they don't get enough attention, they often resort to destructive behavior to take their minds off being alone. You will need to board your Siamese cat or hire a live-in pet sitter when you'll be away for more than one day, as your Siamese won't be able to tolerate human absence for any lengthy period. If you plan to get a Siamese kitten, then you will need to kitten proof your home. But even if you plan to get an adult Siamese, you will need to make sure that your home is safe for the cat. Siamese cats are very intelligent and curious. They may end up tangled in your electrical wires or climbing up into your shelves. Secure loose wires, put a screen on the fireplace, put child safety locks on all of your shelves, and keep fire out of reach.

TL;DR in English: Understand that Siamese cats differ from other cat breeds. Expect difficulty training your Siamese cat. Be aware that Siamese cats are extremely vocal. Keep in mind that Siamese cats crave company. Decide if you can make your home safe enough for a new cat or kitten.

The basis of Buddhist teaching is something called the Four Noble Truths, which are based on the idea that suffering is an intrinsic part of life, but that suffering can be ended by breaking the cycle of life, death, and rebirth. From the four truths come the Four Great Bodhisattva Vows, which are a path that can help you end suffering.  The first noble truth is the truth of suffering. The first bodhisattva vow is the vow to rescue living beings from suffering. In Buddhism, suffering refers to the physical and mental suffering of all human beings. The key to ending suffering is reaching nirvana, which can be done by living according to the Noble Eightfold Path (also known as the Middle Way). The two staples at the center of Buddhism are the Four Noble Truths and the Noble Eightfold Path. The Four Noble Truths can be understood as the belief behind Buddhism, and the Noble Eightfold Path is the discipline and practice behind that belief. Living according to the Noble Eightfold Path includes:  Right speech, action, and livelihood. The key to following these three elements involve living according to the Five Precepts. Right effort, mindfulness, and concentration, which can be achieved by practicing meditation. Right understanding and thought, which come about when you practice meditation, cultivate mindfulness, and live according to the Five Precepts. The second noble truth is a recognition of the cause of suffering, which comes from desire, ignorance, and the craving of pleasure and material goods. The corresponding bodhisattva vow involves vowing to end desire and craving. Buddhist don't believe that suffering and desire can be ended easily. Rather, this is a pursuit that spans many lifetimes, but you can do your part by following the Noble Eightfold Path. The third noble truth is the understanding that suffering can end, and this means suffering both in life and in spiritual terms. The answer to the end of suffering is learning, enlightenment, and action. The corresponding vow for the third noble truth is to...

Determine face shape. Get detailed instructions for the particular cut you plan to make. Familiarize yourself with terminology.

Use a utility knife to cut through the caulk and paint holding the interior trim in place. Once the caulk is cut, work a pry bar into the opening. Put pressure on this to pull the interior trim away from the wall, removing it slowly so you can deal with any caulk, paint or glue that might still be present. There may be staples holding the top piece of trim to the side pieces as well. Repeat the same steps on the exterior trim.  Don’t skip cutting the caulk. If you pry the trim away without cutting the caulk first, you risk damaging the wall. Set the trim aside. You’ll need to re-attach it once the door has been installed. Grasp each section of the door firmly with both hands. Lift it straight up out of the running track, and pull the door backwards out of the frame. The doors are heavy, so should be removed one at a time. Each section of the door can weigh about 100 pounds (45 kg).  If you’re not comfortable lifting that much on your own, ask a friend to help you with the door removal and installation process. If you notice the bottom rollers are hanging up as you lift the door, get an assistant to pry them up gently as you move the door up and out. Once the trim has been removed, you can remove any nails that are left behind. Then, use a screwdriver to remove the screws which hold the frame of the sliding door to the wooden door frame. Remove screws on the left, right, top, and bottom sides of the sliding door.  Although you can use any screwdriver for this step, it’ll be more efficient to use an electric screwdriver. If the door is older, its screws may be stripped or caked with paint or caulk, making them difficult to remove with a screwdriver. Instead, have someone hold the door to stop it from falling while you use a reciprocating saw with a bimetal blade to cut between the door frame and the framing and quickly slice through any screws and nails.

TL;DR in English: Cut away the interior and exterior trim. Lift the doors out of place. Remove nails holding the door frame in place.

A hairstyle should work with a person's face shape and complement his or her features.  Oval.  An oval face shape is considered to be the one shape that can wear any type of style. Round.  A layered top that provides fullness and height and thinned out hair below the cheekbones all work to lengthen the look of the face and give the illusion of a narrower chin line. Heart shape.  Go for a style that offers more fullness lower on the face and less fullness at the forehead. Square.  The idea here is to soften the face so wispy bangs and wavy styles help to create this effect.  It's best to avoid straight lines, straight bangs and straight or flat hair for this face shape. Oblong.  Avoid flat, long straight hair because this will make the face look even longer. Consider a bang, especially a side-swept bang to create the illusion of a shorter forehead for the person with this longer face shape. Diamond. Choose a cut with lots of layers. Avoid bangs unless you go with a slightly off-center curtain bang. You don't want to "wing it" when it comes to creating a hairstyle.

A tailored button-up shirt pairs well with a black pencil skirt, a-line, or midi skirt for a simple office look. Choose a plain colored shirt or a simple pattern, like polka dots or stripes. Tuck the shirt into your skirt so it looks polished. Consider wearing a belt over the waist of your skirt to pull the look together.
