Measure your waist. Measure your leg length. Choose your fabric.

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.

Sarongs are generally just large rectangles of fabric that can be wrapped and tied in different ways. They typically measure anywhere from 66 to 72 inches (168 to 183 cm) across, depending on your measurements. Using a fabric tape measure, measure your waist. To measure your waist, measure around the narrowest part of your abdomen between your rib cage and hips.  If the measurement is 33 inches (84 cm) or less, a 66-inch (168-cm) sarong will be plenty. If your waist measures more than 33 inches (84 cm), consider making the sarong 72 inches across (183 cm). The width of a sarong usually matches the length from hip to foot, so it generally ranges from 36 to 44 inches (91 to 112 cm). To determine the proper length for you, use your measuring tape to measure the length from your hip to your heel. You can use your leg length to determine the length of your sarong, or you can make it longer or shorter based on your preferences. For instance, if you want your sarong to be knee-length, make a note of the measurement from your hip to your knee. Sarongs are summertime accessories that are designed to be folded and tied, so they are usually made of thin, lightweight materials, and some of them are sun-protective. Popular fabrics for sarongs include:  Cotton voile Polished cotton Satin Nylon blends Chiffon fabrics

Inspect the lens and look for the “ø” symbol near the base that screws into the camera body. The number following the symbol is the diameter of the lens in millimeters. Make sure you get a filter that fits the size of your lens.  The number may be painted on the lens or etched into the surface. If you can’t find the diameter, look at the original packaging or instruction manual for the lens to find out. Hold the edge of a ruler across the widest part of the lens, which should be directly through the middle of it. Measure the length from the threaded area on the inside rim of the lens to the other inside edge directly across from it. Be sure to take your measurement in millimeters. Most common lenses have a diameter between 49-77mm. Filter adaptors are rings that screw onto your camera lens so you can use larger or smaller filters. Attach the adaptor to the end of your lens before attaching the filter to it. Once they’re both screwed on, then your camera is ready to use. Filter adaptors may not fit on wide-angle lenses. Screw-on filters attach directly onto your camera, but they can only fit certain sizes. Square filters use an adaptor to fit multiple lens sizes, but they can be more expensive and cause light to leak into the photo. Choose the style of filter that works best for you. Screw-on filters help protect the camera lens, but square filters do not.

TL;DR in English: Look for the diameter listed on the lens barrel. Measure the lens diameter with a ruler. Get an adapter for your lens if the filter you have doesn’t fit. Choose between screw-on or square filters.

Whether you are in an abusive relationship or you just aren't happy with your partner anymore, there comes a time when you have to put your foot down and do what's best for you.  People stay in unhealthy relationships for many reasons, such as guilt, financial stress, or children. It's important to realize that you are actually trapping yourself in the relationship by focusing on these fears. You can start standing up for yourself in small ways by, for example, developing your own interests, making your own decisions, and spending more time away from your partner. Many people are reluctant to leave long-term relationships because they are not used to living alone and do not know what the future will hold for them if they leave. In order to start over as a single person, you need to be willing to take the plunge and accept that you don't know what will happen next.  If you're not quite ready to leave the relationship yet, try to focus on having compassion for yourself. If you consciously work on doing things that bring you more happiness, you will eventually develop the strength you need to leave a relationship that is holding you back. Don't be too hard on yourself if you don't have the courage to leave the relationship right away. These negative thoughts towards yourself will only worsen your self-confidence, which will make it even harder to leave. Some people are actually happier being single, and there's nothing wrong with that. If you find that you don't have a problem with living alone and not having a partner, don't try to force yourself to do anything different. Even if you don't like being single, take this opportunity to find out what's really important to you in life.  It's easy for people to lose a bit of their identities in a relationship, so it may take some time to adjust to being on your own. Whether you plan on being single forever or just for a short period of time, learn to embrace your individual interests and preferences.  Take time to explore all of your interests.

Don’t be afraid to express your feelings. Don’t be afraid to express your feelings.

Recognize the good and bad in your life and examine how you’ve been affected by each. Practice mindfulness. Identify whether your inner monologue is an optimist or a pessimist. Look for the positives in your life. Remember that true optimism is different from blind optimism. Write yourself daily positive affirmations. Avoid comparing yourself to others. Work on improving your perspective in 1 or 2 areas of your life. Smile as often as you can.

When you notice a problem is brewing, do not ignore it. Instead, discuss the issue before it becomes a large problem. This way you can prevent future blow-ups. Letting things bottle up means when the next argument happens you'll end up bringing things up from the past. This can make your girlfriend feel attacked and bombarded. When a problem arises, address immediately. Even a small issue can lead you to build resentment over time. Anger can make it hard to respond to a situation rationally. People often lash out in anger and end up alienating those close to them. Try to work with your girlfriend on finding a way to resolve issues without succumbing to anger. A good way to do so is to take 5 minutes to express your feelings when you have a disagreement rather than immediately trying to talk. Fights are often related to the fact certain emotional needs are being neglected. When your girlfriend is upset or frustrated with you, try to examine whether she has needs you're failing to meet. Have you been distance lately? Have you been busy to the point you're not spending as much time with her? Consider whether you're not meeting your girlfriend's needs and what you can do to help meet them. After an argument, always take a moment to summarize what was discussed. How do you feel? How does your girlfriend feel? How are you both willing to work on the situation to assure it won't happen again? Taking five minutes to summarize a situation after an argument can prevent the argument from reoccurring.

TL;DR in English: Discuss new issues immediately. Create a process for resolving arguments without anger. Listen for underlying emotional needs. Summarize what is discussed to assure you understand.

Optimism doesn’t mean you have to feel “happy” all the time. In fact, trying to force feelings of happiness during potentially traumatic experiences can be unhealthy. Instead, attune yourself to the full range of emotions in your life, accepting that the negative as well as positive feelings are a natural part of human experience. Trying to repress a certain type of emotion can cause severe emotional distress. Not focusing more on one type of emotion than the other can actually help you become more adaptive and proactive in future unexpected situations. This will increase your ability to be optimistic and resilient in the face of uncertainty.  Negative feelings can become a conditioned habit over time. Avoid blaming yourself for negative emotions and associations. Blame is unhelpful because it doesn’t look forward to how you can grow; it looks backward at what has already happened.  Instead, focus on being mindful of when these negative emotions occur. A journal could help you do this. Write down when you experience negative feelings or thoughts, then examine their contexts and explore alternative ways of responding to them.  For example, imagine that someone cuts you off in traffic. You respond by feeling angry, honking your horn, and perhaps yelling at the driver even though s/he can’t hear you. You could write in your journal what happened, how it made you feel, and what your immediate response was. Don’t judge yourself as “right” or “wrong,” just write down what happened.  Next, take a step back and think about what you’ve written. Was your response in accordance with your values and the type of person you want to be? If not, what could you have done differently? What do you think you were really responding to? For example, perhaps you weren’t really angry at the driver; maybe you had a stressful day and allowed your stress to explode on that one person. Look forward when you write these entries. Don’t use them just as a place to wallow in negative feelings. Think about what you can learn from the...

Identify the itching spot. Try a moisturizer or an alternative to scratching. Scratch in slow, circular motions.

When your parents are deciding whether to let you stay home alone, you have to be willing to meet them in the middle. They might only be comfortable leaving you home alone in certain situations, and you should respect their feelings and agree. Even if you’re only allowed to stay home alone once in awhile, it’s an opportunity to prove that you can be trusted on your own all the time.  Your parents may be some conditions on when you can stay home alone, such as only when they’re going to be gone for a couple of hours or less, or when neighbors that they trust are going to be home next door while they’re gone. The conditions may seem annoying, but it still gives you a chance to build trust. Your parents may also want to establish ground rules for when you’re home alone. For example, they may not want you to have friends over or use the stove when they’re gone. Make sure that you go over all of the rules so you understand what’s expected of you. If your parents decide that you’re not ready to stay home alone, you should react to their decision maturely. Yelling or whining will only convince them that they were right in saying no. Instead, accept the decision in a calm, controlled manner so they can see how mature you are.  Remember, this is a big decision from a parent’s perspective, and it may not be in your power to influence it. You can get the best grades in the world and obey all their rules, and they still might be hesitant because of general safety concerns. It’s okay to let your parents know that you’re upset with the decision, but be respectful. For example, you might say, “I’m very disappointed, but I understand your decision.” You may also want to ask if you can revisit the subject again in the future. That way, your parents will know that you’re very serious about the idea of staying home alone and you’ll have hope for the future. If your parents won’t let you stay home alone after your discussion, you’ll probably want to ask about it again as soon as possible. But it’s a bad idea to push the issue so...

TL;DR in English: Be willing to compromise. Accept the decision calmly. Wait before asking again.

In the broad majority of cases, it will be very easy to figure out where you need to scratch. Other times, it may actually take some time before you're able to pinpoint. If you're having trouble figuring out where the itch is on your body, take a few seconds to relax and get in touch with your body. Scratching lightly in big circles should help you find the spot quickly enough. While some occasional light scratching isn't usually a problem, it's still preferable to try other things first. An itch is most often the symptom of an underlying problem, most often dry skin. Moisturizing your skin with an emollient may remove the need for scratching to begin with. Give the itchy area some moisture, and see if the itching stops. It may well be that your skin was simply trying to tell you something all along!   Use a wet compress if you have an irritated area. Put a clean hand towel in a bowl of warm water and several drops of essential oils. Wring it out and apply to the afflicted area. You should feel a sensation of pleasant relief within several seconds.   Other mild itching may go away within seconds if left unattended. As a general rule, drinking a lot of water throughout the day will help to keep the rest of your body hydrated. When it comes time to actually scratch, it's important to keep your scratching limited to small, slow and steady circular movements. Keep your touch light and gentle. Scratch on and around the itchy area. Within a few seconds, the itch should go away.  As with most things, it's best to keep your scratching within moderation. Anything more than a light scratch could actually exacerbate the scratch you're trying to solve! Limit yourself to scratching sessions of 30 seconds maximum.

When citing Wikipedia in APA style, first list the name of the article. You do not need to use quotes or italics. Simply write down the article's title followed by a period. For example, if you were citing an article on Jimmy Carter the beginning your citation would look like this: Jimmy Carter. If you want to lead with an author's name, Wikipedia suggests using "Wikipedia contributors" as the name. In APA style, it's customary to include the date an online source was published or last modified. The date of the last revision is at the bottom of the Wikipedia page; if you cannot find the date, you can simply write "n.d." in parenthesis after the entry title. After the date, add a period. Returning to our example, your citation would look like this: Jimmy Carter. (n.d.). In APA style, it's customary to mention where you found an electronic source. When citing Wikipedia, you would write "In Wikipedia," italicizing the word "Wikipedia", and then add a period. Our citation should read as follows: Jimmy Carter. (n.d.). In Wikipedia. This is the date on which you accessed the information. Use the word "Retrieved" and then write the date. In APA style, the date is written "Month Date, Year." For example, if you retrieved your source on the 15th of October in 2015, you would write, "October 15, 2015." Add a comma after the date. To illustrate, here is what our example would look like so far: Jimmy Carter. (n.d.). In Wikipedia. Retrieved October 15, 2015, After the comma at the end of the date, write "from" and then include the full URL of the Wikipedia page. In our example, our final citation would read as follows:  Jimmy Carter. (n.d.). In Wikipedia. Retrieved October 15, 2015, from https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Jimmy_Carter&oldid=862298349  Remember to use the permalink, or other readers will have a hard time finding where you got your content from.

TL;DR in English: Start your entry with the Wikipedia entry title. Include the date, if available. Write the words "In Wikipedia". Follow with the retrieval date. End with the URL.

Cinnamon, cardamom, clove, star anise, or even chili powder would give your tea an additional warming element. Simply stir a pinch, or about 1/4 teaspoon (.5 grams), of the chosen spice into your tea and enjoy. If you have cinnamon sticks, add 1 to your mug before pouring in the hot water. Mint or raspberry are great flavors that will complement the lemon in your hot or iced tea. Heat up 1 cup (200 grams) of white sugar and 1 cup (240 mL) of water, and simmer them together until the sugar dissolves, which takes about 5 minutes. Remove the mixture from the heat and stir in either 1 cup (25 grams) of mint leaves or 1 cup (125 grams) of fresh raspberries. Let them steep for 30 minutes, then strain the liquid into a glass jar to use in your tea. Add about 1 to 2 tablespoons (15 to 30 mL) of simple syrup to your cup of tea to sweeten and flavor it all at the same time. Simply fill your glass partially with iced tea and top off the rest with soda water. The more soda water you use, the more carbonated your tea will be. Feel free to use plain soda water or flavored. Soda water is also often called sparkling water, seltzer water, or fizzy water. Orange slices, raspberries, strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, peaches, pineapple, and many other fruits are great additions to your iced tea. Add about 1/4 cup (45 grams) of fresh fruit to your glass and pour the iced tea over top of it.  The fruit is delicious to eat when you finish drinking your tea. You could even freeze some fruit and use it in your iced tea in place of actual ice.

Most email services do not allow you to change your existing email address. In order to change your email address, you'll need to create a new account. You can use the same email service you've been using, or you can take this opportunity to switch to a service that better meets your needs. There are a variety of free email services available. Some of the most popular services include Gmail, Outlook (Hotmail), Yahoo!, and Zoho. Each service has different benefits and potential drawbacks, but all offer free email accounts.  Gmail accounts give you access to Google Drive and provide 15 GB of free Drive storage for emails and other files. Your Gmail account can also be used for a variety of other Google services, such as YouTube. Outlook gives you access to OneDrive, which comes with 5 GB of free storage. Yahoo! Mail has 1 TB of free mail storage. Zoho is an ad-free service that provides 5 GB of storage, as well as cloud document services like Google Drive and OneDrive. The process is a little different for each service, but basically you'll just need to go to the service's home page and click the "Sign Up" or "Create Account" button. From there, you'll be prompted to create an account name and enter in some basic information.

Your email password is usually one of your most important passwords. If someone has access to your email account, they'll likely be able to gain access to any accounts you've created with it. This means you'll want a secure password that no one will be able to guess, and that you don't use anywhere else. Try to include...

This should be easy, as you have just ironed them into place.  Again, put your pins in horizontally all the way down the side of the seam so that they can be easily removed while you are sewing.  The frayed edge should now be concealed between the two pieces of fabric and the outer edge is just the neat row of your first set of stitches. You need this amount of allowance so that the frayed edge of the fabric is tucked away neatly between the two seams. As you sew, remove the pins. Once again, remember to clip threads and remove any stray pins after sewing the seam.  If your seam allowance is too small on the second seam, the rough edges of the fabric could end up sticking out of the second seam on the finished side of your project.  Its better to be cautious and make your seam allowance a bit generous. Press the seam to one side, depending on where you would like it to lay in your finished project. Your raw edges are no longer exposed as they are enclosed inside your newly made French seam.

Keep your beliefs strong by participating in the services and traditions of your faith. Visiting your place of worship regularly will help you stay connected to your spiritual community, as well as to God. Throughout your life, you’ll be faced with decisions, big and small. Before you make a decision, think carefully about which actions will help you achieve your spiritual goals and live by the tenets of your faith. Whenever you can, make choices that bring you closer to God. Prayer can help you make good choices when you’re faced with difficult decisions. Helping other people is a great way to grow in your faith and get closer to God. Look for local volunteer opportunities that reflect the values that are most important to you.

Everyone needs adequate sleep to function properly and to stay healthy, but sleep requirements vary by age and activity level. Understanding how much sleep you need can help you plan for a good night’s sleep.  Newborns 0-3 months old require 14-17 hours of sleep every day.  Infants 4-11 months old need 12-15 hours of sleep every day.  Toddlers 1-2 years old need 11-14 hours of sleep every day.  Preschoolers 3-5 years old need 10-13 hours of sleep every day.  School age children 6-13 years old need 9-11 hours of sleep every day.  Teenagers 14-17 need 8-10 hours of sleep every day.  Adults, aged 18-64 need 7-9 hours of sleep every day.  Older adults above 65 years, need 7-8 hours of sleep every day.  Anyone who is very active, stressed, or sick, may need to take short, daytime naps to rest and recharge. Regardless of age and general sleep recommendations, your body requires adequate rest to function at its best.   Make sleep a priority in your life. It contributes to your body and mind’s optimal functioning.  Numerous negative consequences of insufficient sleep include disease, chronic inflammation, high blood pressure and stress, diabetes, obesity and mood disorders.  Lack of sleep also affects mental performance such as the ability to focus. It may affect your ability to do your job well. When you wake up every day, record in a sleep diary how long and well you slept, and how you felt after waking up. Your sleep diary can help you identify patterns that are hindering (or helping) your sleep.  Your sleep diary may indicate factors that are impacting your sleep. Remove or adjust these as necessary and continue to write in your diary. For example, you might notice that on days you nap that you don’t sleep as well at night. If this is the case, try skipping your nap and see if that helps you get to sleep on time. Talk to your doctor if you have trouble sleeping over a long period of time or notice distinct patterns in your sleep. There will be circumstances in which you need to adjust your sleeping habits.

This includes mint leaves and the sugar. Add them directly to the wet tea leaves in the pot.  Try to find a Middle Eastern grocery store. Moroccan mint has a different taste than most other mints. If you are unable to find Moroccan mint, use any spearmint or peppermint. Cane sugar is best. Dextrose will also work if you don't wish to use cane sugar, but you'll need to double the quantities of sugar to ensure sweetness. If you boiled the water previously and it still feels hot enough, you can add it immediately. If not, boil the remaining 4 cups (1 L) before adding it to the pot.  Leave the tea to steep for about 5 minutes.  If you have a Moroccan teapot or a heatproof teapot, rather than steeping, set the teapot over low heat and bring the tea to a low simmer. Then, immediately remove from the heat, and allow to steep several minutes more. Pour it back into the teapot. Do this three or more times. This helps dissolve the sugar. Doing this will help to create a thin layer of foam on the top. When pouring, make sure the tea pellets stay with the tea inside the pot. Only fill the cup two-thirds full; this enables the aroma to develop fully. After pouring the remaining tea, garnish the tea with extra mint (if available). This is an optional step but makes it look fantastic, especially if you have proper Moroccan glasses.

TL;DR in English: Add the next ingredients to the teapot. Fill the pot with the remaining water. Pour one glass of tea. Pour the tea from a high distance. Enjoy!

When you're just starting out with keeping your mouth shut, it can be difficult to not respond when you want to. To help you get over this, think about what you were going to say and imagine how the conversation would play out. Then, don't say what you were going to. This is a really effective technique if you get emotional or upset and your immediate urge is to respond. If you still have a difficult time keeping your mouth shut, try writing down your thoughts in a journal. Sometimes, just putting your thoughts down is enough to remove the feeling like you have to talk. Then, you can throw away what you wrote or use the note to phrase what you're planning to say. For example, your note might say, "Why did you schedule that party without asking me?! You're thoughtless sometimes." Then, throw the note away without saying that or respond by saying, "I wish you hadn't scheduled the party without talking with me first." Pay attention to not only what the person is saying, but how they're saying it. Look for non-verbal cues, such their facial expressions or what they're doing with their hands. You'll have a better idea of what they're trying to communicate and they'll feel more comfortable speaking if they know you won't cut them off. For example, if you ask someone if they'd like to babysit your kids and they say, "I'm not sure if I can," don't interrupt them. If they're also frowning and fiddling with their hands, you may tell that they feel uncomfortable with the idea and you shouldn't press them on it. It will take some effort to keep your mouth shut, especially if you keep thinking of things you'd like to say. Train your mind to become more peaceful.

Cut your plums and remove the pits. Lay the plums on your dehydrator tray. Place the tray in the dehydrator. Check the plums every 4 to 6 hours. Check every 2 hours when you begin removing prunes. Allow the plums to dehydrate for 14 hours.

You can refinance your loan by negotiating a reduction in principle with your lender. This is a good option if you do not qualify for HARP or HEMP and you are in danger of losing your home. This is unpopular with lenders because it costs them money, but worth a try. It simply cuts your interest rate and brings your monthly payment down. Earlier in 2012, the government reached a settlement with 5 major mortgage lenders. 3.5 billion of that settlement will support refinancing for homeowners with underwater mortgages.

TL;DR in English: Look for a Principle Reduction Alternative (PRA). Ask for an FHA Short Refinance. Take advantage of the recent mortgage settlement.

Remove the stem. Then, cut the plum in half around the pit using a sharp pairing knife.  Pull the two halves of the plums apart. Remove the pit and discard. If you don't have a pairing knife, you can use another sharp knife. However, be sure to avoid a large knife. Plums are small, and you want to make sure you maintain control of your knife as you cut around the pit. It's a good idea to push the plums close together, as this will eliminate the need to do two batches. However, make sure the plums are not touching. This is important for air circulation, which allows the plums to dry properly. You should dehydrate your foods at 115 °F (46.1 °C) when working with a conventional dehydrator. However, if you have an excalibur dehydrator, start out at 145 degrees.  Make sure the dehydrator is at the right temperature before placing the plums in the oven. Place the tray in the dehydrator slowly to avoid knocking the plums together. You want to turn the plums at some point to complete the dehydration process. Check every 4 to 6 hours to see if the plums are ready to turn.  When plums are ready to turn, the upside should be very dry. The plums should release easily from the tray. If the upside of the plum is still moist, and the plum does not come off easily, leave the plums for a bit longer before turning them. The plums will turn into prunes at different rates. When you notice some plums completely lack moisture, they've completed the pruning process. These should be removed from the dehydrator. After this, start checking on the plums ever 2 hours, as they're getting close to being done. Plums will take roughly 14 hours to fully dehydrate. However, they may take longer or shorter depending on the quality of the plums. This is why it's important to check your plums regularly during the dehydrating process. When fully dehydrated, you will have black, wrinkled, raisin-like prunes.

Perhaps you discovered your teen was stealing money out of your wallet, or you found stolen goods in your teen's backpack. If your teen is a first time offender and has not been charged with a crime, it's important that you sit your teen down and explain how taking other people's property is illegal and could lead to jail time. Don't downplay the seriousness of the situation or coddle your teen into believing stealing is okay as long as you don't get caught. Be clear and forceful with your words as you explain the serious, potentially life altering consequences of stealing to your teen.  Use legal terms to explain the possible jail time associated with committing larceny (which is when you steal property from someone, like a purse or a bicycle) and committing a felony (which is when you steal with the intent to deprive someone of money, such as taking someone's wallet or writing a bad check).  The value of the stolen property will determine if the crime is considered a felony or a misdemeanor. Regardless of the level of the crime, your teen could be fined a steep amount or serve several months or years in jail if they are caught stealing. Another method is to show, rather than tell, your teen what could happen if they are caught stealing. If your teen has stolen money or goods from you, some parents recommend calling the police and having a police officer mock arrest the teen. The officer may hand cuff your teen and place them in the back of the police car so they can explain what a felony charge is and how it can affect your teen's future.  This may seem like an extreme tactic, and it should only be done if your teen has stolen from you directly as you are the one who will decide whether or not to press charges against your teen. However, this tactic can scare your teen so much that they may never even consider stealing again. If they have not stolen from you, try showing them prison documentaries or interviews with inmates. This will show them exactly what happens in prison and that could be them one day....

TL;DR in English: Explain the consequences of stealing. Show your teen the consequences of stealing. Impose a punishment that requires a positive action from your teen.

Peel the potatoes, then roughly chop them. Put them in a pot and cover them with cold water. Bring the water to a boil, then reduce it to a simmer. Cook the potatoes until they're completely soft, and a fork slides through them easily. Drain the water. Mash the potatoes roughly with a fork. Put the red chili powder,chopped green chilli,chopped onions, chat masala and coriander leaves in the pot with the potatoes.  Add a pinch of salt. Use a fork to mash the spices in with the potatoes to thoroughly distribute them. Taste the mixture and add more spices or salt if you wish. Stir in the  and chickpeas with a spoon, so that everything is completely mixed. If you wish, add a few drops of oil to moisten the filling. It doesn't need too much moisture, though, since you'll be adding pani as the finishing touch

TL;DR in English:


Pray for guidance. Read an example. Think about your past. Write an outline.

Now that you know some reasons why loss of self-esteem occur and the basic negative thoughts that are responsible for perpetuating low self-esteem, you can begin the process to change your beliefs about yourself. This process might be easier to do on the computer, so you can change the organization around so it makes sense to you without having to start your journal over again. A spreadsheet format is a good way to keep your thoughts organized and allows you plenty of room to experiment. For a few days, keep track of your negative thoughts. You can keep these in a paper notebook, on a word file on a laptop, or your iPad. Observe all the negative statements you notice that you make to yourself. If you don’t recognize them by type, it’s okay. Write down the statement anyway. For example, One of the items on the list was, “I’m going to fail if I try to make it as a writer,” along with associated thoughts: “Why even bother? No one will like it anyway. No one has anything original to say anyway. It’s all been written before.” Title this column “Negative Thoughts.” Put the thoughts into order, the top of the page containing the ones that bother you the most, and the bottom the thoughts that make you the least upset. If you see different types of statements that have something in common, group them together. For example, “I’m going to fail if I try to make it as a writer” is at the top of the list. All associated negative thoughts can be included with this thought, but the lead sentence can be thought of as the title for this sentiment. Make a column next to your Negative Thoughts column and call it “Memory/Experience Associated with This Thought.”  A person or experience might come to mind. Write it down. If not, just leave it blank. Understanding where you’ve been will help you realize why you feel the way you do.  For example, “My father told me I would fail if I tried to be a writer.” Remember, if you remember someone stating a negative comment to you, this is not a fact! It’s only their opinion, and you will be...

TL;DR in English: Start a self-esteem journal. Become a negative thought detective. Organize your list. Find the root of each negative thought. Identify feelings associated with each thought. Identify your behaviors. Adjust your thinking. Counter the negativity. Make a positive action plan. Focus on your positive attributes. Identify areas that you would like to improve. Write down areas that you would like to improve.

Your testimony is a strong tool you can use when witnessing to non-Christians. Since the primary purpose is to honor God and advance His kingdom, praying to the Holy Spirit for guidance before you set pen to paper is a logical first step. Get an idea of what to include by reading an effective testimony someone else wrote. You can either use a contemporary example or look for an example provided in scripture.  One of the best examples you can read through is Paul's testimony in the Bible. To read his testimony, check out Acts 22 and Acts 26. You should also ask yourself if there were any testimonies you heard or read prior to your conversion that left an impact on you. If so, recall the details of that testimony and determine what made it so powerful from your point of view. More specifically, think back on your life and attitude before you gave your life to Christ. Ask yourself what issues were important to you and what arguments for conversion had the greatest impact on your final decision. Seek to include these elements in your own testimony. More specifically, ask yourself about the obstacles you faced and how you felt when you were alone with your thoughts. Remember what it was that made you crave change, and any attempts you made to change in other ways prior to your conversion. Before you write out the actual testimony, it can be a good idea to write an outline or to otherwise summarize each section of your testimony. As a general rule, your testimony should be divided into three parts: your life before Christ, your decision to convert, and your life after conversion.

The number of photos you choose will depend on the size of your scrapbook paper, the size of your photos, and how much blank space you want on each page. You can arrange several smaller photos on the page, or you can make a whole-page layout by choosing a photo that’s just a little smaller than the paper you’re using. You can either create a mosaic by cutting each photo and putting it back in its original order, or you can mix-and-match pictures to create your own design. You can get a cool result from either technique, so experiment to see what you like! When you create your mosaic, a little of the paper will show through. Decide whether you want your paper to be plain white or a different color. However, avoid paper with an intricate pattern, which can create a busy effect that can be a little overwhelming to the eye. Common scrapbook paper sizes are 8.5 in × 11 in (22 cm × 28 cm) and 12 in × 12 in (30 cm × 30 cm), but you can use any size paper you like. Before you cut your photos, place them on your scrapbook page and decide how you want them to look. Leave room for any titles, stickers, or other decorative elements you’d like to include on the page. If you’re not planning on keeping the photos in their original state, you don’t necessarily have to do this. Turn the photos over, then use a ruler and a pen and pencil to draw a grid of evenly-spaced squares on the back of each one. Then, number each square consecutively. That way, once you’ve cut the photo, you’ll know exactly where each piece fits in the larger picture. A grid with 1 in (2.5 cm) squares is a good size for this project, but the size you choose is up to you! Place the photo on a paper cutter, and cut either horizontal or vertical strips along the grid you drew. Then, take each strip and cut it into smaller squares. If you don’t have a paper trimmer, you can use scissors instead. Just take your time and make straight, even cuts. Choose 1 photo to start with, and look for the piece with the number 1 written on it. Peel the backing off of a...

TL;DR in English: Choose the photos for your scrapbook mosaic. Arrange your photos on a piece of scrapbook paper. Arrange the photos on the page to plan your layout. Draw a numbered grid on the back of each photo. Use a paper trimmer to carefully cut the photo into squares. Attach the first square to the scrapbook paper with double-sided tape. Leave a small gap, then attach the next square, and repeat. Continue until the entire photo has been added, then decorate your page.

Often, people will feel discouraged at something that seems too difficult for them. You should ask your friend to talk about what’s hard for them when it comes to studying, and how you can best help them. You can ask questions like  “What do you feel unsure about? Do you know anyone who could help you understand the material better? Do you need me to help you keep focused while you study?” At this point in their education, they have faced multiple stressful situations, and still managed to come out the other side. Ask them about it, saying something like “How did you prepare for the last hard exam you passed?”  When they’re done explaining, encourage them by saying “If you could overcome the obstacles then, you can do it again now.” Throughout their studying, make sure you remind them of this fact. Have your friend think about what they specifically want to achieve from studying, or just from this study session. Then have them list the smaller goals they will have to achieve along the way to reach the bigger ones. If necessary, have them break down the goals to their smallest individual steps, and begin helping them work through each, one by one.

TL;DR in English: Find out the specifics of what’s keeping them from studying. Have them speak about their past accomplishments in school. Have them write down their intended goals.

Don't assume that your speakers are the only ones who are affected by your anxieties. If you are experiencing a lot of anxiety, you may be experiencing a lot of fear. If you are experiencing a lot of fear, you may be experiencing a lot of fear. If you are experiencing a lot of fear, you

Recovering from a fear of abandonment requires finding healthy ways to cope with your anxieties. The first step towards finding healthy coping mechanisms is to take responsibility for the way you feel. Even though your emotions might be triggered by other people’s actions, realize that the way you respond to them is up to you. For example, if someone insults you and it makes you mad, you have to recognize that, even if the remark was degrading or humiliating, you have a choice about how to react. You can get angry, cry, or storm off. Or, you can search inside yourself and remember that your well-being is not dependent on the opinions of others, then smile and walk away. Think about why the idea of being abandoned is so frightening to you. Which particular scenario are you afraid of? If you were abandoned today, what specific emotion would that generate in you? What kind of thoughts would go through your mind? Getting specific about your fear can help you find ways to combat it. For example, you might fear that if your partner left you, you would feel unlovable and would never be able to find another relationship. If your fear of abandonment comes from an experience you had in childhood, you may be unconsciously assuming that scenario will play out again. Consider themes from your childhood that may be affecting you today. For instance, if you were abandoned by your mother or another female caretaker, you might feel like you can’t trust any women to remain in your life. Remind yourself that this is not a rational assumption to make, and that all people behave differently. When your anxieties are running high, fact checking is a useful strategy for regaining control of them. Take a moment to distance yourself from your emotions and question whether your thoughts make objective sense. Consider whether there is a simpler and more straightforward explanation for what’s going on. For instance, if your partner hasn’t texted you back in half an hour, your first reaction might be to think, “He’s getting tired of me...

TL;DR in English: Accept your emotions as your responsibility. Identify your fear. Stop generalizing. Practice fact checking. Adopt a mindful approach.

There are a variety of factors that could potentially be causing your speakers to sound distorted or fuzzy. Mismatched equipment is one of the most common factors. Check that the amplifier and receiver support the ohms that the speakers draw, and that the speakers can handle the wattage output of the amplifier. Check the documentation for all of your equipment to ensure that everything matches. If you've accidentally swapped the positive and negative wires on your speakers, you likely will not hear anything coming out of them. Double check all of your connections, and ensure that the black cables are inserted in black clips, while the red cables are inserted in the red clips.  If the speaker is too far away and you aren't using a proper gauge wire, you can experience a lot of distortion. Try to move the speaker closer to the receiver and then shorten the wire, or run newer, lower-gauge wire. Crossed wires can short out your speakers and cause serious damage. Make sure the black and red wires are not touching when bare at the ends. Check that the speakers are not physically damaged. A blown-out speaker can sound terrible, so ensure that the woofers on the speaker aren't torn. If you see any physical damage, try replacing the speaker.

There are several methods of feeding fish during your absence. The length of your vacation will impact your choice but it is always a good idea to have someone check now and then, especially if the electricity goes off in your area (which only a neighbor will know about).  Get a vacation feeder and fill the compartments with the correct food for your fish. The feeder will automatically release food into the water according to a schedule that you program into it. This method is only suitable for fish that take pellet and flake like foods, as it will not hold bloodworms and other live foods.  Freeze-dried bloodworms are available.  Put feeder fish of varied sizes in the tank. It is key to put different sized feeder fish into the tank as the predator will eat some first, and some later, according to size. Do not put live worms into the tank as they will foul up your water. Use a feeder block. Go to your local pet store and buy a suitable feeder block for your fish. It's best to experiment with a few before you go away, as some fish will reject certain feeder blocks. Place the block into the bottom of the fish tank on the day you go away. If you are going away for a long time, organize for someone to come replace the feeder block every 5 to 7 days.  Have someone come over and feed your fish. This is the best method, especially if your fish are picky eaters, but make sure that they have enough time to feed your fish, and know how, when and what to feed them. With some fish you could place a large clump of vegetables in the tank with a weight, and they would eat it over time. Even if you don't like zucchini, it's possible your fish will. It is possible to satisfy two of the groups, as omnivores can eat carnivore and herbivore's food. Still, if you have different groups of fish diets in your tank, all with their own special food, it would be best to get someone who can spend enough time to make sure each group is satisfied. Fish like Bichirs and spiny eels tend to crawl out of holes in your tank, so make sure there...

TL;DR in English: Know your options. Provide live plants or vegetables. Combine these methods to care for a variety of fish. Cover your tank securely.

In the case of mirrors or glass tabletops especially, you may be able to give the object to a friend or even donate it to a charitable organization. By giving the glass away, you can get rid of it, help someone else, and keep the glass out of a landfill. Ultimately, whether or not you can recycle your specific piece of glass depends upon the area where you live. Mirrors, window glass, and other large pieces of glass have a different chemical composition than standard bottle glass, and many recycling plants may not accept them. If your municipality does accept window glass, etc., then they'll likely have a specific process for it. Contact them and follow any specific instructions. This process will most likely involve taking the glass down to a recycling center since the trucks that run recycling routes aren't typically equipped for nonstandard items. If it looks like sending your glass to the dump is the only option, then you’ll want to start by contacting your area’s waste management service. Different companies will handle waste of different sizes. For truly large pieces of glass, your waste management company may not dispose of it in a single piece. You'll likely find information with weight and dimension restrictions on the company's website or by calling. If they tell you you’ll need to break up the pane first, then the second method will be more suited to your needs. If your piece of glass is small enough to dispose of whole, you can trash the glass by taking steps to prepare it for disposal first. Since multiple waste management personnel will have to handle the glass, you want to help ensure that it doesn't break and become a hazard in the process. Start by covering the surface of the glass with duct tape. Tape across the glass will help keep the pieces in place and limit splintering in the event that is does break.  Tape both the front and back surfaces of the glass. The more of the surface you cover the better, but if you don't want to waste a large amount of tape, then you can simply place a large...

Vaginal itching can be a symptom of any number of sexually transmitted diseases. If you experience any of the following symptoms, or if you have any other reason to believe that you have been exposed to a sexually transmitted disease, see a doctor right away. Keep in mind that it is possible to have an STD even if you do not have any symptoms.  Trichomoniasis usually causes redness, a strong vaginal odor, and a yellow-green vaginal discharge, Chlamydia usually has no symptoms, but it may cause abnormal bleeding, vaginal discharge, and abdominal pain. Gonorrhea usually causes a thick, cloudy or bloody vaginal discharge, abnormal vaginal bleeding, anal itching, and painful urination. Herpes usually causes red bumps, blisters, or sores around the genital area. HPV or genital warts usually causes small, flesh-colored warts to appear near the genitals, which may appear in groups. If you have an STD, you will need to see a doctor for medical treatment. Some STDs can lead to serious complications if left untreated, so it's very important to see a doctor right away and take your medications as directed.  Gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and trichomoniasis can all be treated with antibiotics. Depending on the infection, your doctor may prescribe oral antibiotics or may give you an injection. HPV cannot be cured, but your doctor may be able to offer you treatments that can reduce the occurrence of genital warts. Herpes can be suppressed with antiviral drugs, which may help reduce outbreaks, but there is no cure and no way to guarantee that an infected person will not transmit the disease to others. The best way to avoid coming in contact with sexually transmitted diseases is to practice safe sex.  You will be safest from STDs if you are not sexually active or if you have one exclusive sexual partner who does not have an STD. If you have multiple partners, protect yourself from infection by using condoms whenever you have sex.

TL;DR in English: Know the warning signs of an STD. See a doctor. Prevent future infections.

Girls are annoyed by guys who talk down to them.  Don’t make comments that could be considered derogatory towards women or anyone else for that matter.  If she feels like you objectify women, she definitely won’t want to spend time with you. Don’t tell any jokes that could be construed as sexist or racist. Don’t talk about your ex all the time.  Girls hate when you can’t stop babbling about your past relationships.  She’ll think you still have feelings for your ex.  No woman wants to be your rebound girlfriend.  At some point, she may want to know about your former relationships to see what kind of guy you are, but let the conversation come up naturally. If you are still hung up on your ex, you should take some time to recover before you try meeting new women. Don’t be possessive.  Girls get really annoyed when you act like they’re your property.  She’ll also feel like you’re insecure if you feel the need to demonstrate ownership of her everywhere the two of you go.  Girls don’t like being treated like trophies.  Abstain from public displays of affection to show other guys she’s with you. Don’t try to stop her from talking to other guys. Always be polite and avoid  being crass.  Try not to say or do anything that she could be offended by.  If you gross her out, she certainly won’t be attracted to you and she may even be embarrassed to be around you in public.  Hold the door open for her. Don’t curse or swear. Be kind to service staff.

Try not to use your name, or someone else's name that you know, as this may be considered personal information.  Your character doesn't have to have their name mentioned in your novel. You may be writing a mystery have your main character may just be referred to as, for example, the Man, all the way through the novel. Even if this is the case, to add depth to your character, you should know them inside-out even if the reader will not. Some characters may not get their name until you've fleshed them out.

Recognize separation anxiety. Try counterconditioning your dog. Desensitize your dog to solitude. Be patient. Consider alternative arrangements.

This includes a washable hat, protective eyewear, a face mask, thick work gloves, a long sleeved shirt, long pants, and close-toed shoes. It’s best to wear a half-facepiece respirator with a combined dust and gas cartridge, as this provides the best protection against breathing in the fumes. You don’t need to worry about how much water you’re putting in. As long as you know the size of your tank, you’ll be able to create the right mixture by measuring out your Termidor.  Use your water hose or a bucket to fill the tank. You'll need to purchase a pesticide sprayer separately from the Termidor. Choose a model that comes with a pump and applicator. If you don't have a sprayer, you can use a 5 US gal (19 L) bucket to mix and apply the Termidor. However, application won't be as easy and may not be even. Additionally, it's best to use a sprayer to treat the soil you took out of your trench. Follow the instructions for your sprayer to make sure the applicator is securely attached. As you mix your solution, the sprayer pump will prime your applicator tube by cycling the solution through it. This is the part that sprays the solution. Follow the instructions for your particular model. You should see the water rippling due to the pumping action. Once you add the Termidor SC, it will start mixing with the water. If you’re not sure how to turn on your pump, check the instruction manual. Measure out the Termidor SC and put it into the sprayer tank. The pump will mix the solution for you, so don’t try to shake or stir it. Use your water hose or bucket to add water until it reaches the fill line on your sprayer model. Don’t overflow the tank, as this may spill the pesticide solution onto ground that’s not being treated. Then, your solution will be ready for use. Leave the pump on as you use the sprayer so that the solution remains mixed.

TL;DR in English: Put on personal protective gear before handling and applying Termidor. Fill about ⅓ of your sprayer tank with water. Attach the applicator tube to the tank. Start the pump to begin agitating the water. Add the correct amount of Termidor SC, as directed on the label. Fill the rest of the tank with water. Wait 2-3 minutes for the Termidor SC to dissolve.

Separation anxiety can take various forms in a dog, but the most common signs of separation anxiety are destroying the house/apartment and barking incessantly. These behaviors are typically only engaged in when the dog's owner is at work or otherwise out of the house, and if the dog is not destructive, some owners may not even be aware that their dogs have separation anxiety. Common signs of separation anxiety to look out for include:  following you from room to room, no matter how briefly you are gone  shaking, panting, or crying when you get ready to leave for the day  urinating or defecating indoors while you're not home  chewing household objects when you're not home  scratching or "digging" at the floor, walls, or doors when left alone  possible complaints from neighbors about barking or howling when left at home alone Counterconditioning is a common treatment method for dogs that typically involves training the dog to associate something fearful with a reward. In the case of separation anxiety, instead of fearing someone or something, the dog fears being left alone. To counter condition  separation anxiety, you'll need to train your dog to associate being left alone with something the dog enjoys (like treats).  Whenever you leave the house, try giving your dog a puzzle toy stuffed with food. Something hollow that can be stuffed with treats, spray cheese, or low-fat peanut butter will keep your dog occupied for at least 20 to 30 minutes, which may be long enough for her to forget that she was afraid of you leaving.  When you get home, remove or hide the puzzle toy(s) so that your dog becomes conditioned to only having access when you're out of the house.  Be aware that counterconditioning typically only works for mild cases of separation anxiety. Though puzzle toys will certainly be enjoyed by your dog no matter how severe her condition, you may need to resort to stronger approaches if your dog suffers from moderate to severe anxiety. If your dog has moderate to severe separation anxiety, she most likely...

You can't change the card that's already on top of the deck.

Don’t make a request if your parents are in a bad mood or are busy with something else. You want their full attention so that they hear you out and perhaps become convinced that what you want is a good idea. Wait until your parents appear relaxed and at ease to make your request. For example, don't make a request when your parents appear exhausted after a long day or more snappy than usual. Notice how you talk to your parents. Do you ask nicely for things or do you make demands? Get in the habit of asking and not telling or demanding. If you tend to demand things, your parents will likely say no. if you ask, they will feel like they have a choice and may be more likely to say yes. For example, instead of saying, “I want to go to that party” or, “Give me that popsicle,” say, “Can I please go to the party?” and, “Can I please have that popsicle?” Maybe your parents said no to something but you’re willing to put in some effort to change their no to a yes. Negotiate with your parents and find a way to sweeten the deal for them. For example, if you want an item, ask them for it as an early birthday present. Or, offer to do some extra chores for a month as an exchange for something you want to do with friends. When negotiating, make sure your parents know what you’re willing to give up or do extra. You want the deal to appeal to them. You should always treat your parents with respect, and it’s especially important to do so if you’re making a request. Say what you want with a smile and be kind and well-mannered. Say your words nicely and treat your parents kindly. For example, say, “Please” and “Thank you.” It may be unrealistic to make huge requests of your parents. For example, if you want them to buy you a phone or a car or a guitar, they may not be able to make these kinds of purchases. If your goal is to get your parents to say yes, make smaller requests. For example, ask your parents to let you go to a friend’s house when they know your friend’s parents. To make smaller requests,  ask your parents for ice...

Go hunting around the deck as if you were looking for their card, all the while knowing your spectator already has it. Settle on the card that's already on top of the deck which your spectator thinks is in between her hands.

TL;DR in English:


A stable, relatively heavy stand that won't move much on launch will get you the farthest distance. Here's one easy way to make one if you don't need your matchbox anymore:  Empty your matchbox and fill one half with pebbles or other dense objects. Punch a hole in the lid of the matchbox, near one end Stick the paper clip currently in the rocket into this hole. Slide the lid until you get the desired launch angle. If the paper clip falls over, tape it onto the matchbox base or weight it down. If the foil is wrapped too tightly around the paper clip, the rocket might cling and fail to launch. Rotate the rocket and wiggle it slightly until you're satisfied it's slightly loose. If this is very tight, the rocket could explode. The smoking rocket tip will be hot enough to leave scorch marks on carpet and furniture. Find a concrete surface outdoors with at least 40 feet (12m) of space. Keep the rocket pointed away from people, animals, or another person's property. The rocket tip will keep smoldering for some time, and could cause a fire if it lands in brush. Always pick it up after launch, but wear gloves. It will be hot enough to burn skin.

TL;DR in English: Make a stable stand. Loosen the rocket around the paper clip. Move to an outdoor location. Retrieve the smoldering rocket with gloves.

You wouldn’t show up to a job interview wearing slippers and pajamas so don’t practice fighting when you’re not prepared. Putting on your gym shorts and tightly lacing your running shoes will help you get in the mood. It also ensures proper movement when practicing. Make sure you don’t have a heavy meal or an empty stomach before practice, either. Have a healthy light snack beforehand to ensure you can be held over till you post-workout snack, without being lethargic from your cheeseburger and fries. Don’t forget to stay hydrated, either.

TL;DR in English:


Do not do any of the above exercises while you're running. Instead, do them while you're running.

Focus on cardio exercise. Introduce more activity to your daily life. Do strength training. Don't spend too much time on crunches or sit-ups.

Both you and your dog are the most safe when your dog is securely crated in the back seat of your car. If your dog is freely roaming there are chances of them obstructing your driving and increasing their risk of injury.  If your dog isn't crate trained, use a harness and dog safety-belt to secure it in the vehicle instead. Dogs should never travel in the beds of pickup trucks. Not only will they be directly exposed to the elements, they may also suffer fatal injuries should you get into an accident. Keeping your dog in a truck bed is also illegal in some areas. Feeding your dog hours before you begin traveling will help prevent motion sickness. Provide small snacks that are high in protein during rest stops to keep your dog satisfied.  Feed your dog small portions of their regular food or small treats whenever you take a break from driving. If your dog is prone to car sickness consult your vet for remedies. Stopping frequently to let your dog stretch their legs and relieve themselves will help keep them happy, comfortable, and relaxed throughout the entire trip. Try and find dog-friendly locations to make stops at. Even if the windows are cracked cars can quickly become too hot and dehydrate your dog. In order to avoid a conflict try finding a dog-friendly stop along your route.  Enlist the help of a friend if you must leave your dog. Remember, dogs can succumb to heatstroke in just 15 minutes.

TL;DR in English: Keep your dog crated in the back seat. Feed your dog a few hours before travel and provide snacks at rest stops. Stop frequently for exercise and bathroom breaks. Never leave your dog unattended in your car.

Rather than doing a ton of crunches and push-ups, cardiovascular exercise is the best thing you can do to burn calories and eliminate belly fat.  However, rather than slogging at a steady pace on the treadmill, you should try to do interval training. Interval training involves integrating short bursts of high-intensity exercise into your daily workout. Try sprinting for 30 second intervals throughout your run, or set the elliptical, treadmill or exercise to interval mode in the gym. To trim belly fat, aim to do 30 minutes of high intensity cardio exercise at least four times per week. Aside from the time you spend working out in the gym, it's a good idea to incorporate more activity into your everyday life - this way you can burn more calories without too much effort.  Make some simple changes, such as taking the stairs or biking to work a couple of days a week. If you work a desk job, consider switching to a standing desk. Simply by standing instead of sitting for a couple of hours a day you will burn more calories. Take this as an opportunity to do some spring cleaning, to paint the house or fix up the garden - having a project to work on will help you to increase your activity levels without even realizing it! Also try to do active things purely for enjoyment - play soccer with your kids after school, take up a dance class, or spend a fun day at the beach. It's an excellent idea to incorporate some strength training into your weekly workouts. Strength training includes things like squats, deadlifts, bicep curls and leg presses.  Although these exercises don't burn as many calories as cardio, they will benefit you in the long run. They will help you to build strength and muscle, which speeds up your metabolism and helps you to burn fat more easily, even at rest. Exercises like squats and deadlifts will also help you to build muscle around your core and keep your waistline trim. However, it's very important to have the correct form while performing these exercises, so if you've never done them before...

Check the exits and exits of your hotel. If you're in an earthquake area, take this measure. If you're not able to do this in the reservation process, request it when you check in. If you're in an earthquake area, taking this measure could be helpful. If a fire started in your home,

Pack for survival. Get a room in the lower levels of the hotel. Learn your escape routes when you arrive at the hotel. Check some essential features of the hallway and of your room. Put your room keys and flashlight in your shoes before you go to bed.

In the late summer, when it's time to harvest the hops, examine the cones on the bines to see if they are mature. Hop cones are ripe when they're dry, papery, aromatic, springy, and filled with yellow lupulin powder. Test one by cracking it open to see if it is ripe.  Hop cones that are heavy and green aren't ready yet. Be patient; your hops might not ripen until early fall. First year plants may not yield a lot; they hit their peak during the second year.  Harvesting times may vary by regional climate. Until you're ready to use them, hops should be stored in airtight food storage bags in the refrigerator. If you won't be using them for awhile, you can freeze them. Properly stored hops will stay fresh for about a year.

TL;DR in English: Examine the cones for ripeness in late summer. Store the hops in zip close baggies in your fridge.

Bring a flashlight and potentially a battery-operated smoke detector. These may seem like overkill, but they don't cost much or take up much room in your luggage. Organize, don't agonize. The flashlight could save your life if you have to quickly navigate a dark hallway or stairwell, and the smoke detector can alert you to fires while you're sleeping.  Check the batteries on each of these before you leave. In most parts of the world, smoke detectors are mandatory in hotel rooms, but when was the last time you tested one?  If you don't bring a smoke detector with you, at least make sure the one in your room works. If a fire starts, you'll want to get out of the building as quickly as possible. This can be difficult if your room is in the upper floors of a high-rise hotel. When you make your reservations, ask for a room on the ground floor or close to it. If you're not able to do this in the reservation process, request it when you check in. If you're in an earthquake area, taking this measure could be helpful. If a fire started in your home, you'd probably know the best way to get out and you'd probably be able to find your way there even in complete darkness. If you can't do this in your hotel, you're risking your life.  Ask for a map of the hotel at the front desk.  If you can't get a map at the front desk, you may be able to find one on the inside of your room's door, depending on where you're traveling. As soon as you get to your room, study the map and find the nearest exit.  Then find the alternate exits.  Walk the potential escape routes from your room all the way to the outside of the building, counting the number of doors between your room and the exits and noting any unusual features that may help you find your way.  Check for potential hazards or obstructions along the way and try to make sure the exit doors open.  Don't plan on using the elevator. If a blaze were to suddenly erupt, you can't leisurely test certain features of the building. Doing this ahead of time saves you time and reduces your...

Soak 2 4 by 8 ft (1.2 by 2.4 m) sheets of plywood in water to soften them. Lay sheets of plywood in 2 L-shapes. Tie one end of a piece of string to a pencil and anchor the other end. Draw a wide curve on both sets of plywood. Cut the plywood along the curve you drew. Stabilize the plywood sides with lumber. Nail in crossbraces along the curve. Lay the wet plywood on top of the crossbraces and nail it down. Finish with a piece of PVC at the top of the curve to act as the ledge.

The doorbell switch is the button that is pushed to sound the doorbell. Choose a visible position next to the door for the switch. Visitors should be able to spot it easily when they are standing in front of your door.  Placing the doorbell switch around eye-level on either side of your door frame is a good bet. It is best to opt for a weatherproof model of doorbell that will not be damaged by rain or snow. The switches for most models of doorbells come with holes at the back to make installation easy. Measure the switch and holes and use an electric drill to mount the switch on your door or wall. Alternatively, apply a strong binding glue to the back of the switch and apply it firmly to the desired surface. Wipe the surface you are attaching the switch to with a clean, damp cloth before the installation. Ideally, the chime box should be mounted somewhere at the center of your home to ensure that everyone hears it. Pick a room that is relatively equal in distance from all the other rooms in your home. Choose a room that you do not usually close the doors to make sure that the sound will carry. For instance, you might install the chime box in your living room or dining room. Most wireless chime boxes will take D batteries. Open the unit and put the batteries in as indicated, them close the back panel securely. Choose a spot in your home where you want the sound to come from and attach the box the wall with screws. Most chime boxes will have mounting holes on the back.

TL;DR in English: Find an easy-to-spot location for the doorbell switch. Attach the switch with screws or adhesive. Choose a central spot to install the chime box. Put batteries in the chime box and mount it.

If you try to bend dry plywood into a curve for the Warped Wall, it will crack. Place the plywood in a pool or use spare pieces of wood to prop up the edges of a tarp. Hold the plywood in the water by placing a cinder block in the middle, and leave it there while you build the rest of the frame. These will eventually be the sides of your Warped Wall. The amount of plywood you will need will depend on the size you want your Warped Wall to be. On the show, the Warped Wall is 14 to 16 feet (4.3 to 4.9 m) high, but you can adjust the height to your preferences.  For most walls, 3 pieces of plywood will be enough. Laying the plywood in an L-shape will allow you to create a curve along the side of your wall. By tying the free end of the string to a fixed location, it will act as a compass, creating a circle as you travel around the center point. This will help you create the curve for your Warped Wall. The string should be long enough so that the pencil can sweep across the plywood in a gentle curve. If you don't have anything to tie the string to, have someone stand in one place and hold the string. After you draw the curve on the first set of plywood, arrange the second set so the string is anchored exactly the same distance away, and draw the same curve again. Use a saw to carefully cut both sets of plywood. Once this is done, you have the sides for your Warped Wall. Use 4 by 4 in (10 by 10 cm) or another heavy type of lumber to create a frame on your plywood. This will reinforce the plywood and will give the final structure more stability. Make sure you leave enough space between the frame and the edge of the sides for your plywood curve. Insert wooden boards cut the width of your wall all along the curve to attach the 2 sides of the wall together. Space these crossbraces out evenly along the length of the curve. About 8–10 inches (20–25 cm) should be sufficient. You can also add extra plywood to what will eventually be the top and bottom of your wall at this time.  The length of the crossbraces should be cut...

The decision to attend marriage counseling should be a mutual discussion. Find a time when neither you nor your spouse are busy. Talk privately away from children or other family members.  Let your spouse know you want to talk about something serious. Make sure they're not distracted by television or the computer. You might say, “Hey, can we take an hour tonight to talk about our relationship?” It is important to consider your partner's feelings when deciding to get marriage counseling. Perhaps they have also felt tension in your marriage or perhaps they do not think anything is wrong. When your partner speaks, listen to them. You may feel defensive or upset by their comments. Instead of arguing with them, say something like, “That's probably a good reason why we should attend marriage counseling.” Tell your spouse that you think it would be a good idea to get marriage counseling. Focus on building and strengthening your relationship.  State your perspective in “I” statements to avoid blame or arguments. For example, instead of saying “You nag me about everything,” you might say, “When I am criticized for everything I do, it makes me feel as though I am not valued.” Remind your partner what is good and wonderful about your relationship. You might try to prepare 5 positive statements about why your marriage is worth saving. Your partner might suggest trying alternatives before getting marriage counseling. Take this as a good sign. Instead of getting counseling, you can try developing your own plan. If the plan doesn't work, then you can see a counselor.  For example, you might decide to implement a weekly date night to help restore intimacy or you may agree on new responsibilities around the house. Your partner may ask you if you want a divorce. Answer this question honestly. If you both agree without hesitation that you want a divorce, marriage counseling may not be able to save your relationship. For marriage counseling to work, both partners must make a commitment to give it their best effort. Understand...

Rubrics are generally used for longer assignments or projects that involve multiple sections or parts that will require a certain amount of subjectivity in the grading. In other words, you wouldn't use a rubric for a multiple-choice test but you might use one to grade an essay or a presentation. Articulating the particular goals of the project to be graded helps you come up with the more specific things you'll look for in evaluating it. Consider the following questions:  What is the main purpose of the assignment you're grading? What are the students supposed to have learned by completing the assignment? How will you recognize a successful assignment? What makes a project stand out? What's "good enough"? To start breaking the grade down, distinguish between the parts of the grade that cover the content and the parts of the grade that are morel like completion points. There are typically two main categories of components that you'll need to determine to complete a comprehensive rubric, depending on the assignment you're grading: content and process.   Content components refer to the actual meat of the assignment and the quality of what the student produces. This includes things like:  Style Engagement with course themes or objectives Argument or thesis Organization Creativity and voice    Process components are the individual steps that a student must complete to perform the assignment. This refers to things like:  Title page, name, and date Time or length requirements Formatting Is it going to be worthwhile to assign a point-value to the student's use of transitional sentences? Their breath-control while giving a speech? The quality of the binder they use? Try to pick a manageable number of criteria to look for and to grade. The less complicated your rubric the better. It should be comprehensive, but not overwhelming, which makes it more frustrating for you to grade and more difficult for the student to understand. Be judicious in choosing the criteria and cut it down to the fewest possible categories. A...

TL;DR in English: Determine the objective of the assignment. List all the components of the project to be graded. Keep it simple. Focus the rubric on things you're talking about in class.

You'll need some sort of container to provide a home for your starter. Use a small mixing bowl that will hold between 2 to 4 cups (500 to 1000 ml). You can use almost any type of container made for food; however, it is recommended to use a non-reactive container such as glass or plastic. Plan to cover your container with plastic wrap or a clean cloth. Mix 1/4 cup (50 ml) of water with 1/2 cup (50 g) of whole grain flour. If you're weighing your ingredients, use 50 grams each of flour and water. Mix the ingredients until thoroughly-combined and cover with plastic wrap. Once you've stirred the starter, scrape down the sides of the container. You want to make sure you don't leave "food" on the side of the container to feed mold growth. You want a place where the starter isn't likely to be disturbed (dogs, children, curious husbands) and where you can maintain the temperature within the 65° to 85°F (18° to 30°C) range. If you need a warmer area, turning on the light in an oven (but not turning the oven on) will often get you the temperature you need. Similarly, the top of many refrigerators is also a literal hot spot. Sourdough is all about patience. What are you waiting for exactly? You want the starter to become active and start bubbling. In time it'll rise and grow like it's alive. How long are you waiting? 12 hours is usually enough for the starter to become active, so definitely make other plans. Bubbling can begin a few hours into the wait, or it can take as long as 24 hours -- it all depends on the ingredients you used and the environment it's in. If the starter is not active in 12 hours, give it another 12 hours for good measure. If it still isn't active, give it another 12 hours. And if it's not active after 36 hours, check the steps above to make sure you did them right. If everything was right, throw it out and try again -- it's probably not going to happen. If you've tried twice with no results, try a different brand of flour or type of water. When the starter is active, you have to feed it. Add...

Herbs are usually safe, but they aren’t right for everyone. They can interfere with medications you’re taking, and you could be allergic. Talk to your doctor before you take herbal supplements to make sure they’re safe for you.  Remind your doctor of the medications and supplements you’re already taking. If you are pregnant, do not take any herbal supplements before you talk to your doctor. When you take herbal supplements, always follow your doctor's dosing instructions as well as the manufacturer's instructions about dosing. Occasional heartburn typically isn’t anything to worry about. However, chronic heartburn may be a problem. Over time, chronic heartburn can lead to complications, so it’s best to visit your doctor. They’ll figure out what’s causing your heartburn and offer you treatment options.  Symptoms of heartburn include a burning or irritating sensation in the middle of your chest, a sour taste in your mouth, burping or hiccups that won’t stop, dry coughs, nausea, stomach bloating, dark or black stools, feeling like food is stuck in your throat, and pain that gets worse when you bend over or lie down. Your doctor will likely recommend you try over-the-counter (OTC) heartburn treatments if you haven’t already. These can neutralize acid or reduce your acid production.  Additionally, they’ll probably suggest lifestyle changes. If this doesn’t work, they’ll probably prescribe a medication for you. Chronic heartburn can turn into GastroEsophageal Reflux Disease (GERD), which can cause serious ulcers that may cause internal bleeding. GERD can also increase your risk for certain medical conditions, so it’s important to get treatment if you need it. Try not to worry, but these are always considered emergency symptoms. It’s especially important that you get treatment if you’re also experiencing pain in your arm or jaw, which could indicate a heart attack. Visit an emergency room or call for help if you have these serious symptoms.Heartburn can cause extreme symptoms in some cases. However, it’s always best...

Creating a Katniss inspired braid is easier than you might think. It is like a French braid, but it starts lower, wraps around the side and back of your head, and looks messier. To create the look, you will need:  shampoo and conditioner comb and/or brush anti-frizz or leave in conditioning spray (optional) a crimper or texturizing spray extensions (optional) bobby pins a rubber band curling iron (optional) Wash and dry your hair first and then brush and/or comb through it until it is completely tangle-free. You can use an anti-frizz serum or a leave in conditioner if you like. Some people find braiding easier with damp hair, but it depends on the texture of your hair. If you have fine, thin hair, then starting with damp hair is a good idea. However, if you have thick hair that is also curly or wavy, then you should start with dry hair. If your hair is thin or too short to complete the braid, then you may want to add some extensions to your hair. Choose extensions that are about the same color as your hair so that they will blend in.  To put in the extensions, lift up a section of your hair on the back of your head. Then, place the extensions on back of your head and secure the extensions with bobby pins. Tug on the extensions to ensure that they are tight and will not fall out. Then, unclip the section of hair above the extensions and let it fall over the extensions.

TL;DR in English: Gather the items you will need. Start with clean, dry, tangle-free hair. Consider using extensions if your hair is not long enough.
