Learn the connection between cancer and cosmetics. Understand the concern for endocrine disruptors. Know that your skin absorbs chemicals through pores.

You can do this by spraying the inside with a non-stick cooking spray, or by greasing it with butter. If you grease it with butter, be sure to lightly dust the inside with flour as well. If you can't find any chocolate cake mix, then you can use a second box of brownie mix instead. This will make your cake more brownie-like however. Keep whisking until everything is evenly combined and there are no streaks or swirls. There should be hardly any lumps left. You can do this by hand, or you can use an electric mixer. Use a rubber spatula to help guide the mixture into the pan, and to scrape out any excess from the bowl. Gently jiggle the bundt pan from side to side to help settle the batter before putting it into the oven. The cake is done when a toothpick poked into it comes out clean. Allow it to cool for about 5 minutes in the pan first. Turn the cake out onto a serving plate, and let it finish cooling for another 30 minutes or so. You do not want it to come to a boil, but you want it to be very close. You should see lots of steam. Do not touch or stir the mixture during this time. It may puff up and begin to bubble or foam. This is fine. You want the mixture to be shiny, smooth, and well-combined. You can serve the cake immediately, or you can let the ganache cool and set up a little. This may take a few minutes. Note that the ganache will never fully harden like solid chocolate from the store.

TL;DR in English: Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and prepare a bundt pan. Add both the cake mix and brownie mix into a large bowl. Whisk in the eggs, water, and vegetable oil. Pour the batter into the bundt pan, and bake it for 50 to 55 minutes. Let the cake cool. Heat the heavy whipping cream in a saucepan over medium heat until it is just short of boiling. Add the chocolate chips, and wait 5 minutes. Whisk the heavy cream and chocolate together for about 1 minute. Pour the ganache over the top of the cake.

Some cosmetics have been linked to cancer. Talcum powder has been linked to ovarian cancer, while antiperspirants and parabens have been linked to breast cancer. According to the American Cancer Society and National Cancer Institute, there is no conclusive evidence linking these products to cancer. Both the American Cancer Society and the National Cancer Institute suggest using cosmetics without these chemicals if you feel uncomfortable using them on your body. Many cosmetics include chemicals that are considered endocrine disruptors. Endocrine-disruptors are believed to interfere with the endocrine system and negatively affect people and animals. These chemicals are believed to have negative effects on the reproductive system of women.  Common endocrine disruptors include BPA, DEHP, phthalates, and parabens. The CDC states that the result of Phthalate exposure is unknown, though research has pointed to negative effects of phthalates on lab rats. They suggest more information and research is needed. Your skin is porous, which means it will absorb everything you put on it. This includes the chemicals in the cosmetics you use. Your skin has the potential to absorb colors, fragrances, toxic chemicals, and allergens.  Choosing products with less chemicals may help reduce the risk of introducing carcinogens into your body. Using cosmetics with less chemicals may help you reduce the risk of causing developmental problems in children. Toxins are not the only concern with chemicals. People may have an allergic reaction to the chemicals, which may cause dermatitis, rashes, or blisters.

TL;DR in English:


Stock up on sunglasses. Add a cap or visor. Invest in several pairs of sneakers. Go for boat shoes or net booties when dressing up. Add a fitness tracker or sporty watch. Carry a gym or sports bag.

Sometimes, as a busy parent, it will be nearly impossible for you to make healthy snacks at home.  If you must offer store-bought snacks, choose the healthiest options possible. Chips, candy, and soft drinks are an easy option when your teenager is hungry.  If they are in the house, a teenager will eat them! Though you likely can’t prevent your teen from choosing these options at school or at the movies with their friends, you can provide better options at home. These convenient, portable snacks are often packed with sugar and fat. Most have added some vitamins and nutrients, but the amount of artificial flavorings and chemicals they contain usually outweigh the benefits. These are every bit as convenient as a power bar, but offer a good variety of whole grains, nuts, and fruit. You can also pick up individual trail mix packets with similar ingredients. Greek yogurt offers a lot of protein, but any low-fat yogurt is a good option for teens on the go. You can get these salted or unsalted, in bulk or individually wrapped. Be careful about portion control though, as nuts are high in calories. These are a great option for a teen who tends to grab chips and dip, but they offer much more nutritional value than potato chips. You can also rotate in healthy dip options, such as hummus. These packs come in every variety, from sweet treats to nuts to crackers.  Some offer less nutritional value than others, but they are all portable and very limited in calories. Convenience is key here. Bananas, apples, pears, and oranges are very portable and easy to eat.  If you want your teen to grab celery and carrots and don’t have time to cut them up yourself, you may have to opt for the more expensive pre-cut veggies.

TL;DR in English: Banish junk food. Avoid “power” bars. Try trail mix bars. Pick up individual yogurts. Grab mixed nuts. Stock up on multigrain crackers and pita chips. Look for 100-calorie packs. Buy convenient fruits and vegetables.

Sunglasses are an essential accessory for a sporty look. Not only do they protect your eyes, some offer performance-enhancing lenses to help you excel at whichever sport you play. Choose a variety of styles, from aviators to wraparound sunglasses, so that you’ll have a pair for every occasion. Nothing says sporty like a ball cap or visor. Pick several with different colors and logos so you can top off every outfit. If you have long hair, consider looping it through the hole in the back of a ball cap for a super sporty style. For instance, pair a Titleist visor with a T-shirt and track pants when you’re out walking the dog or checking the mail. Sneakers are a sporty staple. Pick several pairs in different colors and styles so you can coordinate them with any outfit. Choose a simple pair, like black Nikes, as well as a pair that makes more of a statement, like patterned Vans. Net or mesh booties add a sporty vibe to fancy footwear. Pair net booties with stretchy skinny jeans or a body-con dress. Boat shoes are another shoe that you can easily pair with dressier items and still keep that sporty feel. To tie your sporty outfit together, a fitness tracker or sporty watch is the perfect accessory. Choose one in a bright color to make it stand out, or opt for basic black for a more functional look. Rather than carrying a traditional backpack to school, toss your books in a gym bag instead. Or, carry your phone, wallet, and other essentials in a drawstring sports bag on the weekends. Opt for a simple black bag, or pick one with an athletic company or sports team logo.

Wash your hands. Secure your play area. Play with your snail at night.

In almost all kinds of songwriting, the melody happens before the lyrics. Most of the time, rappers will similarly develop the beat and become familiar with the music before attempting to write any lyrics. While a rapper might have a stockpile of rhymes built up in notebooks to jump off from, crafting a song requires a beat to rhyme to. Doing this will ensure that the song feels unforced and the music matches the words.  Find a producer online who makes beats and listen to several of them until you find some you like. Commission particular sounds or styles from the producer to get an original track. If you like samurai samples and old-school comic book references like the Wu-Tang Clan, send the beatmaker some examples. Even if you have a kind of idea forming for a kind of song or topic you'd like, try to come up with at least three possible beats before settling on one. Matching content, words, and music is a complicated process. Don't rush it. You can do this on your own computer or sound equipment, or even just by recording yourself beatboxing for inspiration.  Start by sampling the break from an R&B or soul song you really like. The Meters were a relatively obscure New Orleans funk band from the late 60s, who became famous after being heavily sampled as the tracks for great rap songs. Chop the beat using GarageBand or other free software on your computer. Create beats with a programmable drum machine. The Roland TR-808 is the most iconic drum machine, used in many classic hip-hop and rap tracks. It features a wide variety of bass kicks, hi-hats, hand claps, and other percussive sounds that you can program in different patterns. You can also process and manipulate these beats on your computer. Add the melody using bass tones on a synth or keyboard, or by sampling a melodic line from a pre-existing song. Listen to the song repeatedly until the melody starts to reveal itself. Listen to it from different angles and come up with different melodic possibilities. This will help you to find the hook as you begin...

TL;DR in English: Pick a pre-made beat. Consider making your own beats. Find the melody in the beat. Listen to lots of beats before settling on one.

The first thing you should do before anything else is to wash your hands. Washing your hands will make sure that you don’t introduce anything – bacteria or chemicals – to the snail or to its environment.  Use an antibacterial soap. Use warm water. Make sure all soap is thoroughly washed off your hands. Before you play with your snail, you need to make sure the room you’re in is secure and snail-ready. By having a room that is secure, you’ll safeguard your snail's life and make playtime a happy time for both of you.  Remove any other pets (specifically dogs or cats) from the room. Dogs or cats might see the snail as something to toy with or even eat. Inform any other people what you’ll be doing, so they don’t disturb you. Turn off any loud music or the TV. This is important for the snail and so you can concentrate and won’t be distracted as you’re playing. Night time is the best time to play with your snail. This is because most snails are active at night and sleep during the day. If you try to play with your snail during the day, it might not do very much and may just withdraw into the shell. The best time for you and your snail is probably between 6PM and 8PM, depending on your schedule and region.

Count your calories. Keep a food journal Maintain a balanced, colorful diet. Drink water Eat breakfast Get rid of temptations. Avoid mindless eating.

Anxiety can make your stuttering symptoms worse. Before a practice session or speaking with other people, relax your body with a series of deep breathing exercises. This reduces your anxiety and can ward off your stutter.   Do breathing exercises regularly to reduce your anxiety. Do these breathing exercises especially before social interactions to relax yourself. Avoiding social anxiety is a big help in reducing your stutter. Seeing yourself speak helps you analyze your speech pattern. Pay close attention to what words, sounds, or phrases make you stutter.  Maintain eye contact with yourself in the mirror. This is important because when speaking to others, maintaining eye contact can help reduce your stutter. You can also visualize someone else in the mirror and imagine you’re having a conversation. This prepares you to speak to other people. Start by doing this alone, but then include family or friends. It might feel silly to have people watch you speak into a mirror, but people usually stutter less when they’re alone. Adding people to the room triggers your stutter so you can analyze it. This method allows you to analyze your speech pattern even more than speaking into a mirror. Set up a camera and speak into it. Again, start alone and then bring others into the room to trigger your stutter. Play this tape back and analyze your speech pattern. Analyze the tape with your friends and family as well. They may notice things about your speech pattern that you don’t and help you address those issues. People who stutter usually have specific blocks, which are words, phrases, or sounds that they have trouble saying. These blocks trigger the stutter. While reviewing yourself speaking, make note of what your blocks are. Before you’ve practiced overcoming your stutter, you can avoid your trigger words or phrases when speaking in public. In time and with practice, you will hopefully overcome these triggers and be able to use them in everyday conversation. After identifying the blocks that cause your stutter, focus on...

TL;DR in English: Take deep, controlled breaths when preparing to speak. Speak while looking into a mirror. Videotape yourself speaking. Make a list of your blocks and trigger words. Practice saying your blocks and trigger words. Prolong the first syllable of each word. Practice speaking in a rhythm. Read out loud. Make telephone calls.

Each person requires a different amount of calories each day. Depending on your activity level, pick a daily allotment and stick with it. To lose 5 pounds a week, you must burn 2,500 calories a day, which is very difficult. Calculate how many calories you need to eat and how much you'll need to exercise to meet your goal. . This keeps you accountable, because you must record every nibble (even just a bite of a chocolate bar!). It also allows you to see any patterns or places where you can make changes if you aren't losing weight.  Don't miss a meal! Staying conscious of your eating habits is the first step to changing them. Work with a friend. Having someone else look over your food journal (and looking over theirs) will help motivate you to stay on track. Consider using an app on your smartphone, like MyFitnessPal, which makes it easy to track your calories throughout the day, as well as exercise and hydration. Healthier foods fill our stomachs up faster. If you feel full and content, you'll be less tempted to graze in front of the fridge.  Stock up on fruits and veggies. Let's say you eat 400 calories-worth of junk food. You're probably going to be going back to the fridge in minutes. That's because the oils in junk foods aren't filling. They literally take up less volume in your stomach than fruits and veggies do. To eat 400 calories-worth of lettuce, you'd have to eat about 65 pounds of it.  Avoid processed goods. They've lost 90% of their nutrients already. These foods leave you craving more because they don't satisfy any of your nutritional needs. Consume the rainbow. Americans tend to eat a very "white" diet. Eat foods of every color to ensure you're getting the proper amount of vitamins and minerals. In addition to fruits and vegetables, egg whites, soy products, skinless poultry breasts, fish, shellfish, nonfat dairy foods, and 95% lean meat are all recommended for rapid weight loss. . And then drink some more. A glass of ice cold water will boost your metabolism (your body works to warm it) within...

Choose an old sweater. Stitch the seamed edge of the sleeve to the side of the sweater. Fold the bottom edge of the sweater. Make a running stitch from one “armpit” to the other. Stuff the edge of the sweater until you have a sausage-like ring.

It used to be that anyone with a knack for numbers and a lot of friends could become a successful stockbroker. Not so anymore! If you want to stay competitive, you'll need to get your degree. Economics, finance, mathematics, accounting, or business management are all good fields to get your undergrad degree in. And the better college you go to the more prospects you'll have later in the game! Especially if you're going to grad school, keep your grades up. The better your grades, the more -- and better -- schools will open up to you. Not to mention knowing what you're doing when you hit the exchange floor! Some brokerages hire interns during their last year of college. Hit up your campus' "Investment Club" -- or start one if it doesn't yet exist! Getting that dream internship could make your path to being a billionaire a lot easier. This is your best bet if you're not looking to get your MBA and want to get going as quickly as possible. But know that relaxing is totally a viable option. Plenty of people take a couple of years off, go back to get their MBA and get in the game a little bit later. Also: people are more likely to trust a 28-year-old with their money than a 22-year-old, so feel free to keep that red solo cup and package of ramen in your hand for a second or two more. Alright, so having an MBA isn't necessary per se, but if you want to rise to the cream of the crop, having an MBA will put you at the top of that prospective employee stack you're bound to find yourself in eventually. More and more people are getting them, making them par for the course. This step could aid in job advancement, larger signing bonuses, and higher compensation. Again, feel free to take a few years off between undergrad and your MBA. Getting some viable work experience (even if it's menial labor at a bank or a firm) will make your options grow tenfold as well. Showing that you already have a grasp on what you're doing or want to do will get programs to take you more seriously. Read. Watch. Expose yourself. Learn. This is a...

TL;DR in English: Go to a good college. Look into internships. Consider getting your MBA. Educate yourself. Start your own investment portfolio.

In less than 30 minutes you can create the perfect bed with just a needle and thread! If your cat loves to bask in the sun and watch life go on around them, then this is the perfect bed for them - safe, snuggly and simple.  Choose an old sweater or fleece jumper that will appeal to your cat. Make sure it has long sleeves as this is what will make the cosy basket shape. You just need yarn and a tapestry needle.You can choose to use contrasting yarn (such as red yarn on a black jumper) or use the same color so it is invisible.  Stop when you have sewed approximately halfway down the sleeve from where the armpit meets the side seam. Repeat this step for the other arm. Place the sleeves in front of it and roll the bottom of the sweater up. Make sure that the sleeve cuffs slightly overlap. This is how you will make an outer ring to your bed to stuff later.  Sew each sleeve to the top of the rolled up sweater edge. Where the cuffs overlap in front, put one cuff inside the other and stitch down the outside cuff edge along the top layer. You have now created a tube which you will later stuff. The stitching can be invisible or contrasting in keeping with how you chose to style your bed. When you make this running stitch make it arch a little as you sew across to make a half moon shape.  Make sure you sew through both layers of sweater fabric. The more arched your shape, the rounder the bed will be. This is how you will make a solid yet squishy border to your bed so keep your cat safe and snug inside and keep their shape if it jumps in and out a lot.  Use old rags, stuffing or strips of old clothes to make it nice and full. Pad the bottom of the bed a little and stitch the neck opening closed.

The ketogenic diet is grounded in medical and nutritional fact, there is not a universal opinion in the medical community that the diet is effective for weight-loss. Your personal doctor will be able to advise you if the diet is a good fit for you personally.  Some sources view a ketogenic diet as an effective way

Talk to your doctor. Recognize the possible risks of a ketogenic diet. Start with a general low-carb diet like Atkins to ease yourself into nutritional ketosis. Calculate your “macronutrients.

Silicone paste, also known as dielectric grease, prevents the metal wires from rusting and makes your splice completely waterproof. Use a bead-sized amount of silicone paste and spread it over the soldered wire with your finger. Make sure the wire has a thin, even layer of the silicone paste so it stays protected. You can buy silicone paste from your local hardware store. Take the heat-shrink tubing that you put on the wire earlier and move it back over the soldered wire. Make sure the edges of the heat-shrink tubing go over the insulation by at least 1⁄4 inch (0.64 cm) so there isn’t any exposed wire showing through. It’s okay if some of the silicone oozes out from the heat-shrink tubing since there is still enough on the wires to protect them. Hold a heat gun so it’s about 4–5 inches (10–13 cm) away from the tubing. Turn the heat gun onto the lowest setting and start applying heat to the center of the tubing. Work around the entire circumference of the wire, heating from the center to the edges so excess silicone paste oozes out of the sides. Once the heat-shrink tubing is tight on the wire, you can stop applying heat. You can buy a heat gun from your local hardware store or online. There will be some silicone paste that leaks out the sides of the tubing as it shrinks. Once the wire and tubing are cool to the touch, use a piece of paper towel to wipe the silicone off of the wires so they’re clean. Once you remove the silicone paste, your wires are finished!

TL;DR in English: Rub silicone paste on the soldered wire to make it waterproof. Slide the heat-shrink tubing over the exposed wires. Use a heat gun to shrink the tubing over the soldered wires. Wipe off any excess silicone paste with a paper towel.

Although the ketogenic diet is grounded in medical and nutritional fact, there is not a universal opinion in the medical community that the diet is effective for weight-loss. Your personal doctor will be able to advise you if the diet is a good fit for you personally.  Some sources view a ketogenic diet as an effective way to counter the symptoms of certain illnesses — such as epilepsy — rather than a weight-loss diet.  If you are pregnant or diabetic, work with your doctor so they can monitor and adjust your medications while you follow this diet.   If you are type-1 diabetic, seek permission from a doctor well-trained in nutrition before you start this diet. A ketogenic diet — and putting your body into ketosis generally — presents risks for anyone who suffers from heart or kidney problems. If you are at risk for heart disease or kidney disease, avoid ketogenic diets.  A ketogenic diet prescribes moderate amounts of proteins, and large amounts of fats. A ketogenic diet will also add strain to your kidneys. Protein-heavy foods increase the amount of calcium in your urine. This, in turn, can strain your kidneys and lead to the development of kidney stones. The Atkins diet is heavy on fats and proteins, low on carbohydrates, and will encourage your body to burn ketones for energy. Atkins is a decent “middle ground” between a regular diet (often high in carbs) and a low-protein ketogenic diet. This step is optional, but may make the transitional period into a ketogenic diet easier. ” Macronutrients are nutrients which your body needs in large quantities, and they provide energy in the form of calories. Calculating your macronutrient intake will let you see the current levels of your fat consumption. With this information, you can decide how to reduce your carb and protein consumption, and increase your fat consumption.  There are three types of macronutrients: fats, proteins, and carbohydrates. Fats provide more calories per gram than either proteins or carbs. There are many macronutrient calculators available...

Set aside time for relaxing and brainstorming. Use your non-dominant hand for a short period of time. Designate a creative space with natural light. Remove all digital distractions to improve your focus. Have 45-60 minute brainstorming sessions on specific topics. Make pro and con lists to work through your ideas. Draw out your ideas to engage your brain in different ways. Create an inspirational collage that relates to a particular theme.

Although in the era of instant video streaming it may be easy to find movies to watch, this doesn’t mean that all movies are worth your time. For example, there are about 3.8 million titles on IMDB (including films, TV shows, etc.). Ask friends for their recommendations and look up cinephile lists online. You want a good screen with good sound, whether it’s on a TV or a computer. Since most movies you are likely going to watch will be streaming online, it is important to have a computer or device that is able to play streaming videos without a lot of buffering. You can test your device’s video capability by streaming a YouTube video.   Most computers need an Intel or other PC-based processor and software like Silverlight or the Flash plug in. Make sure you have a reliable internet connection in combination with a good player. Even though virtually every film ever made is available online for instant streaming, that doesn’t mean you have access to it. Having a DVD player on hand is important for increasing your availability because you never know where you might have to obtain a movie from.  You may want to purchase a DVD player as an individual device that can be hooked up to a TV or computer monitor. Portable DVD players are also available. Most laptops and desktops have built-in DVD players. Some older movies may only be available on VHS, so having a VHS player may also be useful. Because this technology is outdated, VHS players are harder to find. You may want to look online or at thrift stores and garage sales, even in classifieds like craigslist. There are many online movie services that require a monthly fee for unlimited streaming movies. Every service has their limits, which is why you might consider subscribing to more than one.  Hulu offers a wide variety of films and TV shows, although it is only available in the U.S.  Amazon is a similar service and is available in the U.S., U.K., and Germany.  Netflix is one of the most popular streaming programs, but its global reach is also limited. . Many...

To be creative, your mind should be at ease and free from distractions. Schedule quiet, uninterrupted time to relax and let your mind wander. Once everyday stress and worries have left your mind, you will be apt to imagine and cultivate new ideas.  Schedule this time on a day off from work, or during a part of the day when you have no commitments. Avoid scheduling this time right before an important deadline or appointment, which may distract you. For example, you might write for 5 minutes using your non-dominant hand. Make this a daily habit. It will help activate other parts of your brain. It's a good idea to do this before you start your brainstorming session. This will encourage you to think differently. Artificial lighting can cause a drop in cortisol levels, leading to sleepiness and reduced productivity. Natural light, on the other hand, can make you more alert. Choose a spot for your creative-thinking time that is outdoors, or that has windows that provide ample natural light during the day.  A balcony, outdoor patio, or quiet garden are excellent options for a creative space. Time your creative sessions in the morning or early afternoon to make the most of daylight hours. One of the most difficult parts of the creative process is finding the discipline to follow through with ideas. Remove hindrances to this goal by eliminating electronic distractions while you brainstorm. Turn off your phone,  WiFi connection, television, and radio to immerse yourself in the project at hand. Choose a specific issue, problem, or theme to brainstorm about. Sit down with a piece of paper and pen and write down as many ideas as you can in a 45-60 minute period. To allow unbridled creativity, do not overthink your ideas or second guess them before writing them down. For instance, you could brainstorm about alternatives to plastic product packaging or ideas for a compelling short story. Part of being creative is evaluating your own work and choosing your best ideas. Interrogate your own ideas by breaking them down into...

Don't let your baby cry. If she cries, don't let her cry. If she cries, don't let her cry. If she cries, don't let her cry. If she cries, don't let her cry. If she cries, don't let her cry. If she cries, don't let

Continue to adjust the routine as needed. Begin allowing your child to settle down on her own. Listen when your baby cries out at night before you immediately rush to her.

Procrastinating is easy if your notes are such a mess that you can't find anything you need! Take the time to organize your notes and files. Keep one binder or file folder for each class, and put your notes and assignments in chronological order. Go through your class schedule or syllabus and record every due date in a planner. You can use a paper planner, an online calendar, or even an app on your phone. If you're prone for forgetfulness, put your calendar on your phone and set it to alert you before assignments are due. Not all assignments are equally urgent! If you have several assignments due at once, list them in order of urgency in your planner. Assignments that are due the next day or are for subjects you struggle with should be scheduled for the earliest dates. Do these assignments first! Schedule time in the future for assignments that aren't due for awhile or will be very easy for you to finish. Write down a time in your planner to finish each assignment. For example, if you have an English essay due in one month, you can schedule two hours a week to work on it until it's finished.

TL;DR in English: Organize your notes and files into categories. Write your assignment due dates in a planner. Prioritize your assignments. Plan ahead for lower-priority assignments.

This means you will continue to increase the amount of playtime and activity, while reducing daytime naps. Always watch for your baby's signals so you will have a better understanding of what your child needs.  From around 8 months to a year, your child should still be taking 2 naps a day. Most babies only need one nap after a year, but you should know from your baby's tired signals and alertness while playing whether she is ready to eliminate one nap. Naps may range from 20 minutes to several hours, depending on the baby. Continue to watch the baby's cues. Lay her down in the crib and walk away. Don't pick her up unless she gets very upset.  A baby monitor may be especially helpful at this stage. If you see that your baby has become so upset that she sits or stands, go into her room, pick her up and then lay her back down facing away from you. If your baby isn't calming down on her own, leave her lying in her crib (rather than picking her up) and say comforting things. Babies of this age understand quite a bit of language, so you might use a soothing phrase like "Mama's here. It's night time baby," which you can use consistently at every sleep time to help the baby adjust to sleep. You may place your hand on her back for a few minutes. She may be able to soothe herself.  Nighttime cries or calls are part of the normal sleep cycle, even for adults who often talk in their sleep. Since babies can't talk, they often grunt, moan, yell, or cry while still sleeping. If you go in and comfort the baby at this point, it will actually backfire by waking the baby more and disturbing the sleep cycle.  If the cries escalate or seem unusual, go and comfort your baby.

Unless something your friend is doing is hurting themselves or others, there is no reason to give an unwanted, negative opinion. Putting undue pressure and judgement on them will make them start to dislike your presence. Try to be supportive and non-judgmental, even if you deeply disagree with something that they did. Show your respect by letting the friendship stand stronger than any one mistake.  If your friend messes up, forgive them – even if he or she, say, forgets your birthday. If they don't study for an important test, help them out. If your friend embarrasses him/herself in front of their crush, or in front of a group of people that they like, then help them out. Tell them that people will forget about it. Make sure you don't constantly talk about what happened, and just drop it as soon as it happens. Warn your friends if they make a decision that seems like a bad idea. If you know someone well, then your opinion is valuable. However, your responsibility as a friend does not include depriving someone of the opportunity to make mistakes and learn from them. Make sure that you respect your friends' right to make their own choices. If they need to do something, then let them do it. Arrange a time when you can interact one-on-one. Then, if you're sure that they are okay with being alone with you, try easing into a friendly conversation about where you think things went wrong. Humble yourself for a few minutes, and try to speak with your friend as though everything were normal. Do not accuse. If you want to restore your friendship, you'll need to let go of your anger. Rash words and unfounded accusations may cause the person to put up a defensive wall. However, it's reasonable to bring up an offense if it directly caused the falling-out. If a friend feels like he or she is being held back, he/she might react by creating distance or fading from your life in an attempt to get some space. This might hurt – but sometimes people will do this without even realizing it. Respect their journey, and give them some...

TL;DR in English: Refrain from judgement. Give respectful advice. Talk about your disagreement. Learn the boundaries. Remember that respect goes both ways.

If you are looking to make extra cash as a student, retiree, or in addition to your regular job, starting a lawn mowing business is a good way to do it, especially if like working outside, providing a valuable service, setting your own hours, and making decent pay. Start by looking for older or in need of repair equipment because it will be cheaper. It will also make you learn how to fix the equipment you will be using. Once business picks up and you save some extra cash, you can invest in newer and better equipment. It is best to make sure you are successful before spending thousands of dollars on a failed business.   The mower is the most expensive piece of equipment. Plan on obtaining an 18 inch push mower to cut grass at most residents. A larger model will cut faster but it is more expensive, heavier, and difficult to use around lots of shrubbery. You might want to get a grass-catcher that you can attach to the mower. If you plan to focus on larger yards with several acres of grass, you will need a riding mower with a 36 to 48 inch radius in addition to the push mower. There is a great range in price for riding mowers so make sure you can afford it and be able to generate enough business first. Tractors will break down. Make sure you do research on reputable dealers and mechanics in your area. In general, the more automatic the tractor is, the more breakdowns that will occur. Make sure to obtain a machine that is simple to operate and easy to disassemble and repair. You will need to move your mower and other supplies with good transportation. In other words, you will need a truck or trailer. If you use a trailer, make sure you check the department of transportation for requirements and licensing. Same goes for insurance. In addition to a mower and transportation, you will also need scythe for weeds, hand clippers, rake, basket, gas can, oil, spare blades, and tools for repairs. You will have to formulate a fee schedule before you begin. It is good to offer cheap prices to make your business more...

If you’re new to glass coloring, mason jars are a great type of glass to start with. Glass paint can be used to color glass that will get wet (e.g., mason jars that you’re planning to use as drinking glasses). It’s also a more permanent method of coloring glass than using food coloring.These methods don’t work for dyeing glass surfaces that are used for eating. However, you can dye the opposite side of serving trays, pitchers, and decanters that can be washed by hand. Work in a well-ventilated area, like a garage with the outside door open or a room with 2–3 open windows. This will keep you from inhaling paint fumes. Visit a nearby craft store or art-supply shop and peruse their glass paint selection. Unless you’re set on only using 1 color, purchase a few so that you can dye your glass surfaces a number of colors. For example, if you’re planning to dye glasses dark green, purchase a couple of complementary colors like dark blue, purple, or yellow. You can use the different colors to give the inside and outside of the glass a different color, or to paint multiple glasses different colors. If you don’t live near a craft-supply store or a hobby shop, you can find a large variety of glass paints in online painting-supply stores. Each bottle usually costs around $5 USD. Paint-lightening medium is available at most craft shops, hobby stores, and art-supply stores. You can also purchase it through large online art-supply retailers. Paint-lightening medium is a little more expensive than the paint itself; it runs about $10–12 USD.  The lightening medium is used to thin the paint and lighten its color. In a pinch, you could use acetone-based nail polish remover instead of lightening medium. However, acetone tends to mix poorly with glass paint and gives the finished product a streaky look. After you have coated the interior or exterior surface of the bottle, jar, or vase, tilt it upside down so that extra paint mixture drips off of the glass and onto a sheet of newspaper or something similarly disposable. If you’d...

TL;DR in English: Select a clear glass item to color. Purchase glass paint in the colors you’d like to dye your glass. Buy paint-lightening medium to use as paint thinner. Turn the bottle upside down for 20 minutes to drain excess paint. Set the glass aside to dry for 3 to 7 days.

Organic and inorganic fertilizers are by far the largest human source of nitrous oxide production, and this gas is now the prime culprit in depleting the ozone layer. Fertilizers are of course important, but to limit their impact on our atmosphere, suggest these practices that both save money and reduce emissions:  Better matching fertilizer rates to crop requirements. Using fertilizer formulations and additives that reduce emissions. Improving fertilizer timing to assure maximum nitrogen absorption. Using precision fertilizer placement to minimize nitrogen loss to the atmosphere. The majority of man-made ozone depleting chemicals now come from agriculture. Encourage your representative to put forth laws governing fertilizer use. Be sure to point out that by using fertilizer more effectively, these laws can save farmers money while also protecting the environment. Shrinking the hole in the ozone layer will take all of us working together. Encourage your friends to drive less, eat less meat, buy local, and to properly dispose of old fire extinguishers or cooling appliances containing ozone depleting substances.

The best time to deadhead or prune mums you are growing outside is during the late spring up to mid summer. This is right before blooming season, so the flowers have time to branch off from the cut stems. Deadheading during the warm season also makes it less likely that the vulnerable cut areas will be exposed to cold temperatures.  If you are growing your mums in a greenhouse or indoors, you can deadhead them as soon as you see dead growths since the mums won’t be exposed to cold weather. When it’s time to deadhead your mums, inspect the plant to find the flowers or branches that are spent. Most mum blooms are orange or yellow in color when healthy, and brown when dead or dying. They also are likely drier than the other healthy flowers of the plant, often with a papery and brittle texture to their petals. If your mum plant only has a few dead blooms, you can simply pull off the browned flowers with your fingers. To do this, grip the stem of the mum right under the dead flower, then simply pinch and snap off the dead bloom. If you are growing your mum indoors or in a greenhouse, this method is probably best for you since you can continuously deadhead throughout the year and don’t have to worry about exposing your mum to cold temperatures. If many of the blooms of your mum plant are dead, but the stalks appear to be alive and are growing buds, use a pair of garden shears to clip multiple flowers off at a time. Angle the shears right under the dead blooms and clip, taking off the blooms from a whole section of the plant. Repeat until you have taken off all the dead blooms. If most or all of the blooms and stalks on your mum plant are dead, you’ll need to use a pair of gardening shears to deadhead your plant. As soon as you see new green growth from your mum plant emerging from the ground, take a sharp pair of gardening shears and clip all of the dead sections of plant as close to the ground as you can. This will eliminate not only the dead flowers, but also the dead stems of the mum plant so that it can start...

TL;DR in English: Deadhead mums in late spring to mid summer. Find blooms that are wilted or dead. Pull off dead blooms with your fingers. Clip off bunches of dead flowers with shears. Shear at the bottom of the stem for major deadheading. Don’t prune outdoor mums after they flower.

Wet wood is soft, which makes it prone to splitting and breakage. Allow the surface to air dry before handling it. In the meantime, hold off on replacing furniture or setting other objects on it to avoid further accidents.  The heat of the iron will have evaporated most of the moisture, but it may take a few hours to regain its full hardness and rigidity. The wood will shrink somewhat as it dries, which can cause problems if you begin sanding or putting pressure on it too soon. In some cases, small flaws may be left behind in the wood, or the water might produce a slight discoloration. You can remedy this by running a square of high-grit sandpaper over the area until it blends in with the wood around it. Use light, smooth strokes to avoid scratching the wood surface, which may have been weakened by the dent. When you're done buffing imperfections out of finished surfaces, be sure to touch them up with a fresh coat of paint or laminate. This will help conceal any remaining traces of the dent and act as a barrier against knocks and bumps in the future.  In most cases, a single coat will do to cover up the spot where the dent was. Allow the refinished surface to air dry overnight before touching it. Steaming won’t always be enough to eliminate dents. Deep gouges and spots with breaking, splitting or chipping should be looked at by a professional. Extensive damage can usually be repaired with a durable epoxy or lacquer filler.  For bigger jobs, have a woodworker cut a special wood inlay to fit the damaged area.  Afterwards, the repaired surface will likely need to be resealed or stained.

TL;DR in English: Let the wood dry completely. Smooth out the wood with sandpaper. Brush on a protective finish. Repair large dents with a filler material.

Avoiding accidents is your number one priority as a cab driver, because accidents endanger you and your passengers and cost you money.  Follow all traffic laws. Do not speed. Take care when changing lanes. Do not weave through traffic. Do not drive when tired or otherwise impaired. Immediately report any accidents. Accidents are not the only danger a cabbie faces. There are also your passengers. Taxi drivers carry cash and operate alone, often late at night, making them vulnerable to assault. To protect yourself:  Radio the dispatcher whenever picking up a client. Keep your windows rolled up and doors locked between fares. Be wary of passengers that give vague instructions. Do not let single passengers sit directly behind you. Use an excuse – company policy or car balance – and politely ask them to move. Do not drive into back alleys. Do not resist robberies. Instead, memorize the suspect's description and contact the police as soon as possible. Driving a taxi is a bit like fishing: you need to know where to get bites. When first starting out, experiment with different locations at different times until you find the right mix. Some places to consider include:  Airports in the mid morning Business districts during lunch Suburban rail or subway stops during rush hour Out of the way restaurants during the evening Clubs late at night If you're an independent taxi driver, you'll have to work long hours in order to pay for the lease on the car and make enough money for your salary. Giving out cards can boost your business by creating repeat customers. Yes, navigation systems allow anybody to get from point A to B, but really good taxi drivers know not only how to get where they are going, but the fasted routes for any time of day. More than that, they are able to offer recommendations on dining, lodgings, and nightlife. The difference between getting 5% and 10% on a tip can be huge. The better service you provide, the more money you will make. To give your passengers the best service possible:  Keep your car clean....

Your towel should be long enough so that it falls past your shoulders when it hangs from the top of your head. Your towel should be wide enough to reach from the nape of your neck to your to your hairline. If your towel is much wider than your head, you can fold the towel in half so it fits better around your head. It is a good idea to designate hair towels that are specifically for drying your hair.  You may want to use a soft towels made of microfiber or an old, clean t-shirt to dry your hair because these materials will leave your hair softer.  If you have short hair, you should use a shorter towel. Some people like to use a plush towel to wrap their heads because of how soft and comfy it feels; however, microfiber towels are preferred by people with curly hair because they are less abrasive to the hair cuticle.   You can also use a soft t-shirt to wrap your hair. Just like the microfiber towels, the softer material will not create as much friction with your cuticles as a fluffy towel and can leave your hair softer.   You can also buy a hair wrap from a department store like Target. These wraps are made of absorbent microfiber and are lighter and easier to wrap on top of your head than a towel. Bend over at the waist, and use your hands to brush all of your hair down over the top of your head so that all of your hair is hanging upside down in front of your face. Pick a spot to bend over where you have room flip your hair over. The middle of the towel should sit at the nape of your neck on your back hairline. Adjust the sides of your towel so that both sides have the same amount of fabric hanging on each side. Then bring together the two sides of the towel to the middle point at the front of your hairline, and hold the sides of the towel together firmly. Hold the sides of your towel around your hairline so that the towel applies pressure to your head but is not so tight that it squeezes your head. If your wrap is too tight, it may give you a headache. Tuck the towel behind your ears. Some people like to put...

TL;DR in English: Select a towel that is the right size. Flip your hair over your head. Wrap the towel snugly around your head. Keep your hair in the towel wrap for 30-60 minutes.

Traditional LCD TVs use CCFL lighting to show the pixels on the screen. LED TVs use LEDs to light up the LCD display. So in essence, they are the same type of TV with different lighting configurations. LED TVs typically provide better color and picture quality than CCFL LCDs, and are also much more efficient. LCDs, on the other hand, are typically the cheapest TVs available. An edge-lit LED is thinner and cheaper than a backlit, but since the lighting only comes from the edges, it can lead to a slightly washed-out picture. Backlit LEDs are slightly thicker and more expensive, but will give a much more uniform and clearer picture quality. Plasma TVs in general are not being produced anymore, with the exception of LG and Samsung. This means you will likely see few or no plasma models on the showroom floor of your local electronics store. Many people still consider plasmas superior, as they provide better picture quality and look the best in dark rooms. They are also viewable from the most angles. They are often heavier and more power-hungry than the other models, and suffer from the worst glare in bright rooms. 3D TVs were a big thing a few years ago, but support is starting to fade. Networks that embraced 3D such as ESPN have started to drop support, and 3D has become less of a selling point for home movies. You can still find plenty of 3D TVs, and if you're a fan, the lower prices mean now is the best time to buy.

Arrive on time and prepared for the tryout. Bring water and a snack for the break time. Avoid checking your phone or other distractions so you can show the coach that you will be a dedicated cheerleader. Be sure to smile and keep a positive attitude. Cheerleaders are known for their peppy personalities and energetic attitudes. If you make a mistake, move past it. Everyone is likely to mess up when learning something new. Simply smile and find your place, as this will show the coach that you don’t give up when things are difficult. You should wear shorts and a t-shirt or tank top so that you can move freely. Wear sturdy sneakers or special cheerleading shoes if you have them. Braid your hair or put it up in a ponytail or bun to keep it off your face. Wear your school colors if you are able, and/or add a ribbon in your school colors to your hair. . Confidence is key for cheerleading. Even if you are new to the sport, if you learn a few basics before tryouts you can be confident in your skills. You should also be nice to others who are trying out and offer to help if you think you know something they can learn from. Give the coach your full attention at all times. It may be tempting to talk to your friends or others who are trying out, but you should show the coach respect. You’ll also need to pay close attention to the instructions you are given so you can remember everything later. Don’t be afraid to speak up if you have a question or would like some help with a move. Asking a question shows you want to understand, which is admirable. The coach will  likely be happy to explain something to you or help you adjust your movement. Give 100% during your tryout. Even if you feel silly or awkward, try your hardest to do what the coach asks of you. Though you may be new to the moves, the coach will appreciate your dedication and willingness to try.

Center the tip of each screw with its corresponding pilot hole mark. Use a power drill or screwdriver to drive the screws into the underlying wall stud to a depth of about 1 inch (2.5 cm). Then, remove the screws from the wall carefully.  Use the screws that came packaged with your shelf brackets. If your brackets didn’t include their own fasteners, 1.25 in (3.2 cm) wood screws will be a good fit for most average-sized shelves.  Boring pilot holes is easier, neater, and more precise than trying to screw directly into the bracket holes in one shot. Align the screw holes of each bracket with your pilot holes and reinsert the screws. Tighten the screws with your drill or screwdriver until they’re seated snugly in the wall. Be sure to double-check that your brackets are straight and even before you cinch them down.  Avoid overtightening your screws. Doing so could damage the surrounding surface and weaken their connection as a result. Hold off on putting up your shelves until you have all of your brackets in place. If any of the brackets are misaligned, it will be much easier to fix them if you haven't already installed the shelves. Depending on the style of your shelves, you may be able to simply rest them on top of the brackets and call it a day. If your shelves are designed to be anchored to the brackets, insert screws in the appropriate slots and fasten them down. Most of time, these slots will be located along the tops of brackets where the shelves sit.  Use your level to make sure your shelves are even. If they're off level by more than a small amount, it may be necessary to drill a new pilot hole for one of your brackets. As long as the brackets are seated securely in the wall studs and you're using anchors of an appropriate strength rating, your shelves should have no problem supporting the amount of weight indicated in the product specifications. Inspect the area around your newly-mounted shelves for traces of the markings you made while searching for your wall studs and positioning your shelf brackets....

It can be helpful to know what kind of scents bother you. If a particular brand of perfume or laundry detergent causes an adverse reaction, you should know so you can avoid that brand in the future. Keep a journal chronicling when and where you have a bad reaction to a smell.  It may be hard to identify the precise trigger every time, but try to notice when symptoms arise. Jot down any probable cause, from scents from outdoors to household products. Take your journal with you to work or social events. Such places can sometimes be ripe with unwanted scents that may trigger a reaction. Keeping your journal in a "notes" section on your smartphone can make it easy to access it. There are certain events where you may be exposed to a lot of unwanted scents. During formal parties, for example, many people may be wearing perfumes or colognes. Prepare as much as you can before these events. If you find such events are particularly harsh on your sensitivity, consider sitting them out.  If you're on any medications that help with your sensitivity, bring these to parties. You may want to stay close any open windows during these kinds of events. Try occasionally stepping outside if a smell is bothering you. One of the best means to minimize reactions is to keep your exposure low. This is especially important if your reactions are intense. Try to stay away from scents that bother you.  Avoid stores where there are heavy odors, such as department stores that use a lot of chemical cleaners. If you notice a product you use at home, like a cleaner, is bothering your sensitivity, cease use immediately. Ask your household members to minimize their own use of scented products. . Scent sensitivity is sometimes caused by an allergic reaction. If your body is in a weakened state due to illness, your allergies will be more acute.

Most people do not like to claim defeat, or admit when something becomes too hard for them to do. By presenting undesirable tasks in certain ways, you can easily convince someone to agree to what you want.  If you want someone to shovel snow from your driveway, you may ask, "Can you keep shoveling the driveway or do you need me to do it? If you can't handle it, then it is okay, I can." By offering to take over the thing you want that person to continue doing, you provide that person with the idea that you are kind and willing to help. When you add in the statement about not being able to handle the situation, that person will continue to shovel to avoid admitting defeat. If you show someone that you care about their well-being, or you want to have him or her as a friend, it will naturally invite that person into your life.  Do someone a favor. When you go out of your way for another person, that person will feel indebted to you and will want to return the favor.  Find a way to help someone out, and then after you have completed the task, ask for a favor. It will be hard for that person to turn you down. A great way to influence the way someone makes a decision, is to make that person fear a situation enough to be willing to do whatever you say to avoid it from happening. If you want someone to start exercising with you, give statistics about how not working out can lead to terrible health problems. Then, explain how you can teach that person great exercises to avoid getting those health problems. If you're dealing with people who are driven by desire, simply explain an easy way to obtain what they want. Tell them how to easily make more money, get a job promotion, or buy a better car. Making them believe they can have brighter futures by doing what you say is an easy way to play mind games.

Youtube's specialty is, of course, short videos uploaded by users. But there are now a number of full-length movies available to stream on Youtube as well. While Youtube has been expanding into the online rental realm (which requires a fee), there are still some movies (that have been legally uploaded) which you can watch for free on the website. The number of films available may change from time to time, but you can search for a current list of free movies streaming on Youtube. Classics like Night of the Living Dead, Nosferatu, and House on Haunted Hill tend to be consistently available to watch in their entirety for free. There is no shortage of subscription-based websites (like Netflix), but these services charge a monthly fee that can still put a strain on a tight budget. Fortunately there are a number of free services, which generate a profit by selling ad time during online viewings. Two of the most popular ad-supported movie sites are Hulu (which is free to use unless you upgrade to Hulu Plus) and Crackle. These sites are free to use, and often have paid subscription options to cut out commercials or expand the available viewing options. If ad-supported websites don't have the movies you're looking for, try getting a free trial to a subscription-based site. Many of the biggest subscription services, like Netflix and Amazon Prime, offer free trial periods (usually lasting around 30 days). It's not a permanent solution, but it can get you a free month of commercial-free access to some of the biggest online movie streaming services. Just be sure to cancel before the trial period is up, or you will get billed for a subscription.  Amazon Prime's free 30 day trial includes access to over 1,500 movies on Prime Instant Video, as well as other Prime perks like free one-day shipping on all purchases through Amazon. Be aware that in order to enroll in a free trial subscription, you will need to have a credit card to put on file so that the website can begin billing you once your free trial ends.

Unless your miscarriage is a result of a specific reproductive problem, most women can conceive again after miscarrying. When and if you make this decision is personal and depends on a number of factors.  The World Health Organization recommends waiting at least six months to try conceive again. However, medically delaying conception has little benefits. If you are otherwise healthy and feel emotionally ready, you should be able to conceive as soon as your menstrual cycle resumes.  Be aware that pregnancy after a miscarriage can be an anxious experience. Many women worry about a miscarriage happening again. Make sure you're ready for the emotional toll of undergoing another pregnancy before trying to conceive again. Less than 5% of women have two consecutive miscarriages. The odds are in your favor. Knowing this can help some women manage the anxiety.  If you've had more than two miscarriages, you should talk to a doctor and get tested for a variety of medical problems that can cause miscarriage. If problems can be diagnosed and treated, you'll increase the likelihood of carrying a baby to term. The vast majority of miscarriages are unpreventable. However, certain factors can increase the risk of miscarriage, including maternal age, previous miscarriages, medical conditions, certain medications, radiation, physical stress, or chemical exposure. There are some things you can do to minimize your risk of miscarrying.  Maintain a healthy lifestyle throughout pregnancy. Exercise regularly and keep your weight gain consistent with medical guidelines. Eat a healthy diet and avoid anything, like soft cheeses or raw meats, that could be damaging to the fetus.  Do what you can to stay as healthy as possible while pregnant. Avoid getting sick if possible. A fever of over 100 °F (38 °C) may increase your chances of miscarriage. Smoking can increase the risk of miscarriage. Quit before pregnancy or stop smoking during pregnancy. Do not drink alcohol when pregnant. Any amount of alcohol is dangerous while you are pregnant....

Added and refined sugars may cause an elevation in triglycerides, so one of the fastest ways to lower your triglycerides may be to cut down on your sugar intake. This is because sugars are often unneeded calories that are converted to triglycerides (a form of fat) for storage in the body.  Limit your added sugars to less than 5 to 10 percent of your calories. For women, this means that sugars can take 100 to 200 calories per day. For men, this means that sugars can take 150 to 250 calories per day. Avoid simple sugars found in candy, desserts, soda, and juice. White rice and baked goods made with refined white flour or semolina can cause elevated triglycerides in some individuals. If your doctor suspects that this might be an issue for you, reducing your carbohydrates can have a quick impact on your triglycerides.  Instead of eating foods made with refined white flour, choose breads and pastas that are made from whole grains. Diminish your overall intake of carbohydrates, and consume more protein in your diet instead. Proteins have a lower "glycemic index" than carbohydrates, meaning that they are absorbed more slowly into the bloodstream. This, in turn, is helpful to lower blood sugars as well as to lower blood "lipid" levels (including triglycerides). Healthy fats are also a great dietary addition as these help to stabilize blood sugar and can in turn help to lower triglycerides. Alcohol can increase triglycerides, especially in those who are more sensitive to it. It is strongly recommended that you eliminate alcohol from your diet while you are trying to lower your triglycerides. After your triglycerides have returned to an acceptable level, you may gradually re-introduce alcohol back into your diet. However, avoid drinking too much or too often, since having too much may cause your levels to jump back up again. Men should have no more than two drinks per day and women should have no more than one drink per day. A drink is defined as 12 ounces of beer, 5 ounces of wine, or 1.5 ounces of liquor. Omega-3...

TL;DR in English: Cut sweets from your diet. Reduce your refined carbohydrates. Eliminate alcohol. Eat more omega-3 fatty acids. Consume plant-based foods. Get plenty of fiber. Monitor your fat intake. Limit fructose.

Stand up straight and tall. Hold your chin up. Then, say your name and listen to how it sounds. Alternately, you can read a passage from a newspaper or a book. Consider the volume, tone, breathiness and especially the pitch of your voice.  The pitch of your voice is determined by how much your vocal cords vibrate.  If your voice sounds high or has a high pitch, it means your vocal cords are vibrating at a high frequency.  If your voice sounds low or deep, it means your vocal cords are vibrating at a lower frequency. When you try to speak lower than normal, your voice is less likely to crack. Aim to relax your throat as much as possible, so that you do not tighten your vocal cords. Moisten your voice box and keep it sounding clear by working up a little extra saliva occasionally and swallowing. Choose a passage from one of your favorite books or articles. Practice reading the passage slowly and with a low voice. If you find yourself reading too quickly, you may notice your voice will lose its timbre. Keep your chin up, breathe through your belly and read the passage. There are a variety of mobile applications available for smart phones or tablets, which you can use to train your vocal cords on your own time. These applications allow you to train towards specific goals and to monitor your performance. For instance, you could try one of the following applications:   Vocular allows you to measure how deep your voice sounds. It tells you how deep you are speaking and even lets you compare your voice to celebrities with similar sounding voices.  Eva is designed for transgender users who are currently transitioning and want to change the sound of their voice, such as pitch, tone or breathiness. Hum deeply from your throat, with your lips parted and your chin pointed down toward your chest, to warm up your voice. Humming is an excellent warm up for musicians and singers, as well as anyone who wants to improve their speaking voice. Raise your chin slowly while humming and then begin speaking directly from that humming...

In Harajuku style, any color goes! Dye your hair in a vivid, eye-catching color like pink, blue, or orange. You could also try an ombré mix of several colors for even more creative flair. Harajuku's spirit of individuality carries through to hairstyles as well. To achieve the look you want, you could also add hair extensions or spray-dye your hair with temporary colors.  Do your hair in an attention-grabbing style, such as a spiky cut or a pair of high side buns. For a more Kawaii style, wear some cute pigtails or full bangs. Whether cutesy or dark, your makeup should be as eye-catching as your outfit. Your makeup may differ based on your favorite substyle, but you should generally avoid natural makeup and aim for a more theatrical look.  Cutesy substyles like Kawaii and Decora favor pink cheeks, round eyes, and pink lips. Edgier substyles such as Visual Kei and Gothic Lolita usually go for dark lipsticks, dramatic eyeshadow, and extremely thick lashes.

TL;DR in English: Dye your hair different colors. Be creative with your hairstyle. Do dramatic, theatrical makeup.

The internet is the best resource for reaching large groups of people at low cost. For starters, every fundraiser should have a Facebook page that is filled out with relevant information and updated regularly. Then, you can use Twitter or Instagram to further spread the word and connect with potential donors. For more advanced fundraisers, consider creating a website that includes a donation link. You may be able to get help from a local website designer at a lower price if they believe in your cause. This will allow you to have a professional website without the cost. This can mean placing signs around town and at community bulletin boards, spreading information through word of mouth, or talking to broadcast media to see what type of advertising they offer. Many radio stations and local television outlets have community bulletin boards and public service announcements for nonprofit groups. Ask sponsors and other local businesses to help spread the word by buying up some of your tickets or posting a poster for your event in their shop. Other businesses may be able to help you in other ways; you won't know how until you ask. Your team can be a great resource in getting the word out. Tell them to talk about the fundraiser whenever possible and make an effort to let their friends know about the event. In addition, they can email faraway acquaintances that may be interested and post about the fundraiser on social media. Any way that they can get the word out will only help your cause.

There are many different types of court records, and knowing which kind of record you need will help you in your search. Civil and criminal cases may be decided at the county, state or federal level, depending on the circumstances of each case.  Civil cases are usually private disputes between individuals or organizations, while criminal cases involve someone who has broken the law or is otherwise considered harmful to society. A person or organization with more than one conviction may have records in multiple jurisdictions. You can usually Access Criminal Court Records for civil, criminal, and small claims cases at the district or county level. Type your county’s name and “criminal records” or “civil court records” into a search engine to find these records.  Search for records using the appellate’s name, defendant’s name or the case number. Some county court websites require you to know the court case number, and may not let you search by name or date without that information. Each state’s courts maintain their own public records of proceedings in court. Type in your state’s name and “court records” into a search engine to locate this website for your state. In New York, for example, the New York State Unified Court System allows you to search by case number, summons number, the defendant's name, or the name of a corporation involved in litigation. Most state court websites, you can search for cases by first and last name, business name, or case number. In the United States, you can Access Court Records Electronically through the US Courts website as part of the Public Access to Court Electronic Records (PACER) project.  This website also informs you of whether or not a case is actively involved in litigation. PACER allows you to search for cases through all US courts.  To use PACER, you will need to set up an account. While there is no registration fee, there is a charge for every document viewed, downloaded, or printed. However, fees can and will be waived if you spend less than $15.00 in any given...

TL;DR in English: Determine the appropriate jurisdiction. Check your county clerk’s website. Visit your state's court website. Search the US Courts website.

Try to have a strong tone of voice, without appearing harsh or intimidating. It should be obvious that you're not available, but that you appreciate the thought. Being firm and giving the ask-er your full attention demonstrates thoughtfulness, and shows you're not dismissing them needlessly.  Say it fast. Don't trip over your words, but don't stop to chat if you've made it known you have places to be.  A good example of the need for brevity are run-ins at work:  Them: "Hey, I could use your help with a presentation later today." You: "Nope, can't do it. Unfortunately got my hands tied with work all afternoon." Them: "How about now?" You: "Gotta start the work sometime, I'm afraid; good luck with the presentation, though. Remember: don't just read what the projector shows. Gotta be running now, see you later." Offering a quick bit of advice--whatever you can spare--is a kind gesture if you've got to brush someone off. Always look to have the last word, and make sure to go when you've said, "I'm going." This is the "thanks" in "no, thanks," and is the key to an inoffensive rejection. You'll want the person asking to know you're happy that they've thought of you, and you'd like them to continue thinking of you in the future.  Say it in person, if possible. Especially if it's something of significance, people appreciate a face-to-face meeting, particularly in this age of text messages and e-mails.  Kindness is key if turning down someone for an outing, or a date:  Them: "Would you want to be my plus one at that work gala this weekend?" You: "That's so sweet of you to ask, but unfortunately I can't make it." Them: "No worries, I knew it couldn't hurt to ask." You: "I'm glad you did; I appreciate the thought." Don't make it personal--making it personal is a definite way to offend someone, even if you don't mean to. Let them know you'd love to help them, but unfortunately, have no time for that. This helps to keep the conversation level-headed and unemotional. For example, if someone asks you to help them move on...

Focus on what you like about your body. Pay attention to the diversity of body types in the world. Take notice of all of the things your body can do. Use your mirror to improve your body image. Say positive things to yourself. Post body-positive sticky notes around your house. Limit your media exposure. Surround yourself with positive people. Be supportive of other people.

Like their stock counterparts, futures mutual funds are a diversified portfolio of different commodity futures managed by a professional advisor for a fee. Managers determine which futures to buy or sell and the timing of the transactions. Most funds are highly leveraged to increase return. The portfolio might be broad including all commodity classes or limited to specific types such as grains or precious metals. Management fees typically are 1.5% or higher of the fund’s asset value.  Mutual funds let investors participate in the commodities market without having to get directly involved with trading highly leveraged commodities. Also, since commodity mutual funds also make investments in stocks related to the commodities, sometimes they still perform well even if a commodity itself is experiencing a negative price movement. For example, stocks in a mining company may rise even though the price of the commodity they mine is falling. This is because the stock value of the companies related to the commodities are affected not only by the price of the commodity, but also by their own debt and cash flow.  Major investment companies that sell commodity index funds include Pimco Real Return Strategy Fund, Oppenheimer, Barclays and JP Morgan. Commodity mutual funds are advantageous because they are professional managed and diversified, providing a full package to inexperienced investors. A Commodity ETF is a managed portfolio of physical commodities or commodity futures designed to track either the spot price such as precious metals or an index of a specific commodities. For example, a Gold ETF might purchase and store gold in the form or coins or bullion while a Futures ETF would contain a series of futures contract designed to replicate the price movement of an index like the Dow Jones-USB Grains Subindex Total Return or the SummerHaven Dynamic Commodity Index Total Return. While assets within the ETF are rebalanced periodically to track the index more closely, active management is less intensive than a commodity...

TL;DR in English: Understand commodity futures mutual funds. Understand commodity-related Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs). Buy commodity mutual fund shares or ETFs.

Identifying your favorite features may help you to develop a more positive body image. Take a few moments each day to look at yourself in the mirror and identify your favorite features of your body. For example, you might say to yourself, “I really like the shape of my face.” As you repeat this self-talk on a daily basis, you should begin to notice more of your good features and start to feel better about your body. Bodies come in many different shapes and sizes. Paying attention to the diversity of bodies may help you to see the beauty in your own unique body shape and size as well. When you go out, pay attention to how different people’s bodies are. Note the shapes, sizes, colors, and others features of people’s bodies.  Try not to stare at people as you notice different body shapes. It may cause other people to feel self-conscious. View other people’s bodies with an open, non-judgmental mind. Avoid attaching labels to other people’s bodies, just observe so that you can begin to see how many different types of bodies there are. Don’t compare yourself to others as you observe other body types. You may be able to improve your body image by focusing more on what it can do instead of what it looks like. Even if you are not athletic, think about how you use your body every day.  For example, you might simply observe that you use your body to hug your family and friends, to breathe in, and to smile. Make a list of all the things that your body can do and look at it when you begin to focus too much on what your body looks like. Try out a new physical activity to discover more ways that you can use your body. For example, you could try yoga, tai chi, swimming, or a dance class. While your mirror may also be a tool for you to criticize your body, you can learn to use your mirror to improve your body image. Every time you look at yourself in the mirror, identify something that you like about your body and say it out loud.  For example, you could simply say, “I like the way my shoulders look in this top.” If you can’t...

Many of the ideas listed above work just as well for older teens and adults as they do for younger children.  Everyone loves jokes, for example, you just might want to choose more mature examples.  The same holds true for movies, sporting events, and so forth. At some point, you will discover that you and your dad are no longer “child” and “adult” but two adults.  This can be an uncomfortable transition for both of you, but it means that you and your dad can start enjoying fun activities together as peers.  Invite your dad out for a beer (after you reach the legal drinking age where you live). If you are having friends over to watch the game, be sure to invite your dad. Think of other activities that you like to do with your friends, and consider including your dad in some of them, or inviting him to do similar activities, just the two of you. Observe what your dad likes to do with his friends, and ask if he would include you sometime. Plan an adult vacation with your dad.  He took you to Disneyland when you were a kid, now you can take him to Las Vegas, or Ireland, or somewhere else that he’s always wanted to go. Take your dad for a trip to the places you enjoyed together when you were a kid.  If it’s feasible, ask him to show you where he grew up, as well. Grandparents can have an extremely important and positive influence in the lives of children.  Being a grandfather is also a lot of fun!  Take your kids to visit with your dad as often as possible.  If distance is an obstacle, help them keep in touch with Skype, email, or phone calls, and help them get together as much as you can.

Get some construction paper or colored printer paper that's about 11 to 12 inches (28 to 30 cm) long. Orient the paper landscape style, then use a pencil and a ruler to draw a set of 1 1⁄2 centimetres (0.59 in) wide strips. Cut the paper using a paper slicer or a craft blade and a metal straight edge.  You can cut the paper using scissors, but the edges may end up crooked. If the paper is longer than 11 to 12 inches (28 to 30 cm), cut it shorter. Get another sheet of colored, 11 to 12 in (28 to 30 cm) long printer or construction paper. Draw 2 more 1 1⁄2 centimetres (0.59 in) strips, then cut them out with a paper slicer or a craft blade and a metal straight edge. When you are done, you should have 4 strips of paper, 2 of each color. Take 1 strip of each color and overlap the ends to create a right angle or L-shape. Glue the ends with hot glue, liquid school glue, or a glue stick. Let the paper dry before moving on.  Do this step twice, once for each set of strips. Make sure that you are gluing 2 different colors together. For example, if you have 2 yellow and 2 orange strips, glue the yellow and orange strips together. A permanent marker or a highlighter could work well for this. You can also use a dowel or a rod of some sort. Do not use a skinny ballpoint pen or a pencil, however; or the finger trap will end up too thin! Make a drop of hot glue near the end of the marker. Take 1 of your glued-together strips, and place the point into the glue. The strips and the marker should look like an arrow when you are done.  The hot glue should be on the side of the marker, right against the bottom edge. Don't put it at the very tip. The hot glue will keep the paper in place as you weave it. You can also wrap a strip of double-sided tape around the marker instead. Pay attention to the color that's facing you. For example, if you used yellow and orange for your paper, and the yellow strip is facing you--remember that! Rotate the marker so that the strips of paper are now on the back.

Pick up the syringe in your free hand and rest the hub of the syringe (the open end) just behind the cat's lower fangs (the long teeth at the front of the lower jaw), angled over the tongue. Gently and slowly press the syringe's plunger so that about half a milliliter of fluid is dribbled into the cat's mouth.  Once you have put medicine in the cat's mouth, it will move its tongue and try to swallow. Some cats like to lower their head to swallow, so you may need to relax your wrist so that her head can drop down to a more natural position for swallowing. After the cat has had a chance to swallow, give it another half milliliter of medicine. Repeat this process until you have administered the full prescribed dose. Talk soothingly to the cat as you slowly unwrap the towel. Most likely, the cat will run off as soon is it can, but if it doesn't give it some affection and maybe a tasty treat. Rewarding the cat after giving it medicine will make it less resentful and make the task easier next time.

TL;DR in English: Place the syringe in the cat's mouth. Begin administering the medicine. Finish dosing the medicine. Reward the cat.

After you’ve learned more on the topic, return to the prompt and come up with a response. Keep in mind you’re not simply forming an opinion based on gut instincts. Use the information you’ve gleaned from the documents to form a well-reasoned opinion supported by evidence.  For example, after reviewing the documents related to women’s suffrage, identify the opposing attitudes, how they differed, and how they changed over time. Your rough argument at this stage could be, “Those in opposition saw suffragettes as unpatriotic and unfeminine. Attitudes within the suffrage movement were divided between conservative and confrontational elements. By the end of World War I, changing perceptions of the role of women contributed to growing popular support for suffrage.” A thesis is a concise statement that encapsulates your argument. Be sure that your thesis is a defensible claim that responds to the prompt, but doesn’t simply restate it.  Suppose your DBQ is, “How did World War I affect attitudes toward women’s suffrage in the United States?” A strong tentative thesis would be, “The roles women played in the workforce and in support of the war effort contributed to growing popular support for the suffrage movement.” A weak thesis would be, “World War I affected how Americans perceived women’s suffrage.” This simply restates the prompt. Start with your tentative thesis, then list roman numerals (I., II., III.) or letters (A., B., C.). For each numeral or letter, write a claim, or a step in your overall argument. Under each claim, list a few bullet points that support that part of your argument.  For example, under numeral I., write, “New Woman: perceptions shift in the 1890s.” This section will explain the 1890s concept of the New Woman, which rejected traditional characterizations of women as dependent and fragile. You’ll argue that this, in part, set the stage for shifting attitudes during and following World War I. You can start your planning your essay during the reading portion of the test. If necessary, take around...
