If you have a hard time getting rid of the iPad's screen, you can use a soft, lint-free cloth. If you don't have a soft, lint-free cloth, you can use:  Any microfiber cloth Any lens cloth you might use on your glasses Any soft, lint

Make sure your iPad is completely unplugged and press the "Sleep" button on the top of your iPad or turn your iPad off completely. If you have it, remove your iPad Cleaning Cloth from its case. Check your iPad's screen for any debris or large particles. If necessary, use compressed air to blow off any debris to avoid scratching your iPad's screen. Place your iPad Cleaning Cloth on your iPad's screen. Gently rub the iPad Cleaning Cloth in a circular motion until the screen is clean. Inspect for any remaining patches of oil or grime. Repeat after every use or as needed. Avoid using the following items to clean an iPad.

The variety will depend on what you expect from the nasturtium, as well as the space you have available:  Indian Cress - this is a vigorous trailing grower, good for a large garden; it's also known as  the common garden nasturtium. The flowers come in shades of orange, yellow and red and it should flower all summer. This is an ideal plant to train up a trellis or fence. Dwarf nasturtium - a small bush variety, better for a smaller garden space. It has a wide range of flower shades and is easy to control in the garden. Peach Melba - has yellow flowers with orange-red centers, a popular addition to salads. Salmon Baby - has a unique orange-pink hue that looks great in the garden. Nasturtiums are commonly started indoors so they'll begin to flower as soon as possible in the spring, after the last frost has passed. If you want to start your seeds indoors, plan to do so four to six weeks before the last spring frost. To start the seeds indoors,  Plant each seed in a peat pot, which can be transplanted directly to the ground to avoid disturbing the roots. Use seed substrate, rather than potting soil. Keep the seeds in a bright window, and keep the peat moist. Plant the seedlings after the last frost of the spring has passed. Nasturtiums like full sun, but they need to be shielded from midday summer heat. Since they're so low maintenance, nasturtiums are excellent for growing in spots that need covering up or for those stark, unloved parts of your garden.  Nasturtiums don't mind growing in a container; they'll flower just as profusely in a container as in the ground. Hanging baskets are also an ideal choice. Nasturtiums like loose, well-drained soil that retains moisture. They prefer soil that is not rich, so don't use fertilizer. If there is too much fertilizer in the soil, nasturtiums focus on producing more leaves rather than flowers.Avoid any area with heavy, wet clay soil. If you're direct sowing seeds, plant them 10 inches apart and about ½ inch deep. If you're transplanting seedlings, keep them in their peat...

TL;DR in English: Choose a suitable nasturtium variety for your garden. Consider starting the seeds indoors. Select a good planting spot. Prepare the soil. Direct sow or transplant seedlings after the last frost.

Remove any additional external cords and/or electronics that may still be connected to the iPad. The Cleaning Cloth is the black microfiber cloth that came with the iPad packaging. Briskly shake the cloth in the air to remove any loose particles from the microfiber. You don't want to accidentally turn the debris into an abrasive by rubbing it over the screen. Note: if your compressed air produces patches of frozen air, be careful to avoid getting any moisture into one of the iPad's openings, in particular, as well as on the screen itself. If you don't have the Cleaning Cloth that came with the iPad, you can also use:  Any microfiber cloth Any lens cloth you might use on your glasses Any soft, lint-free cloth Do not use: cloths, towels, paper towels, or any similar items on your iPad. These damage the screen of the iPad.  You will see that with just a few circular strokes, your iPad will be shining like new! This will help to keep your iPad clean and clear of fingerprints and smudges. iPads have an oleophobic coating on the screen, which is sensitive and only requires a fine cloth to clean. The following items will damage the oleophobic coating if used to clean the iPad:  Window or household cleaners Aerosol sprays Solvents Alcohol Ammonia Abrasives

People who are self-absorbed are usually waiting for people to compliment them. If you not only love compliments but live for them, then you may be self-absorbed. It's normal if you take a compliment as an unexpected delight or surprise, but feeling that you’re owed a compliment because you're so great is characteristic of self-absorption. Compliments should be happy “extras” that give you a boost, not expectations. If you have trouble accepting other ways of doing things, you may believe that you are the only one that knows best. Whether you’re planning a project at work or organizing a dance at your school, if you think that you know exactly how to do things and hate it when other people take the reins, then you may need to work on becoming more flexible.  You might hate not being able to take the credit for something or admitting that someone else was right, but doing so can help you become more open. For example, if you find yourself feeling angry, annoyed, or even livid that someone else is trying to do things a different way, even if it’s just a lab partner who has a new idea for a project, your ego may be getting in the way of your progress. People who are self-absorbed may have trouble feeling happy for others who are receiving praise or recognition. If someone in your circle receives praise, whether it’s your sibling getting praise for a good grade or a co-worker for wrapping up an amazing project, then your natural reaction should be to feel happy for the person. If you find yourself feeling jealous, angry, or confused about why you’re not the one getting the credit, then you may need to work on becoming less self-absorbed. If you routinely forget birthdays, high school graduations, promotions, or other important events in your friends' lives, but still expect others to remember personal milestones, then it may be because you’re too focused on yourself. While we all get busy and miss the occasional milestone, consistently forgetting important events of your friends is a sign of self-absorption. Ask...

TL;DR in English: Stop wanting or expecting praise. Be flexible about different ways of doing things. Let go of jealousy over others’ accomplishments. See if you remember birthdays, milestones, or other important events in other people's lives. Develop friendships with a variety of personalities. Be kinder to everyone.

Use a water-resistant cover to keep pipes from freezing.

Insulate the pipes. Protect the pipes from wind and cold air. Heat the area. Leave a trickle of water running.

Once you've received a coded message, write down the very first letter of the encoded word.  From here, write down every other letter you find.  This will help you break the encoded word into its original halves, letting you recreate the original word.  For example, start with the encoded word “sreect”.  The letter “S” would be the first letter to write down. Write down every other letter in the code after “S”.  This would result in “sec”, which is the original first half of the word before it was encoded. After you've written down the first letter of the word and every other letter after it, you can start on the second letter.  Write this second letter down and then write down every letter after it.  This will help you recreate the second half of the original word before it was encoded.  As an example, imagine you are decoding the word “sreect”.  The letter “R” would be your starting point for this step. Write down every other letter after “r” to complete the second half of the original word.  In this case, the result is “ret”. Now that you have the two original halves of the word, you can put them together the recreate the original word.  Take each half of the word and join them together to reveal the original word.  If everything worked out properly, you should now have successfully decoded the word and you will be able to read it normally.  As an example, the original coded word may have been “sreect”. When the original halves of the word were recreated, the result was “sec” and “ret”. These two halves combine to form the original word “secret”. You may have a message that is longer than one word.  To read the entire message, use the decoding technique on each individual word.  Once you decode each word, you will be able to clearly read the complete message.

TL;DR in English: Look at the first letter of the encoded word. Write down the second letter in the word. Recreate the entire word. Finish decoding the message.

Keep pipes in cold areas wrapped with "pipe sponge" covers, rags, or other insulating material. If an electrical outlet is nearby, you can keep them wrapped with electrical heat tape, unplugged, then plug the tape in whenever cold weather arrives. Check your crawlspaces and external walls for holes, and repair them to minimize exposure to cold air. Use wind barriers or faucet covers to protect faucets and valves on the exterior of the house. During cold weather, turn on a 60-watt incandescent light bulb near the area of pipe that previously froze, or just below it. If used to warm crawl spaces and other unsupervised areas, make sure there are no flammable materials kept in the same space. It is much more difficult for pipes to freeze if water is running through them since the water will usually travel through the pipe before it has time to freeze. During sub-freezing weather, keep faucets slightly open to allow a trickle of water. You can adjust the ballast in your toilet tank to keep it running even when the tank is full.

Store smaller items in pouches to keep them from getting lost. Put trash items in a small Ziploc and empty it every day. Use a removable purse organizer if you like to switch bags. Use the smallest size purse you can so it’s easy to carry around and keep neat. Wipe down or wash your bag on a weekly basis to keep it clean.

Fatty and spicy foods are more difficult for your body to digest, so they irritate your stomach and cause heartburn easier. Prepare your meals by grilling, searing, or baking them so they’re healthier and less oily. Choose milder spices or simply stick to salt and pepper for a basic seasoning.  If you eat out at restaurants, try to choose baked or grilled options rather than fried foods. Chocolate and peppermint may also trigger heartburn. These foods are alkaline, which means they help counteract acid so it’s not as irritating. Try to have foods like bananas, melons, cauliflower, broccoli, green beans, and cucumber since they’re the most helpful. Eat 1–2 servings of fruits or vegetables with each meal to maintain a healthy diet.  Celery, lettuce, and watermelon can also be helpful since they’re watery and dilute stomach acid. Citrus fruits and tomatoes are acidic, so they may make your heartburn feel worse. Fiber fills up your stomach and makes you feel more so you’re less likely to keep eating. Enjoy foods like whole grains, brown rice, sweet potatoes, peas, and broccoli to get fiber throughout the day. Aim to have between 20–40 grams of fiber daily.  For example, 1 slice of whole wheat bread has about 2 grams of fiber, 1 cup (175 g) of broccoli has about 5 grams, and 1 cup (150 g) of peas has about 9 grams. Gradually increase the amount of fiber in your diet, since too much at once may give you gas, bloating, or cramps. When you prepare meals, only eat the recommended portion listed on the packaging. For example, typical serving sizes are around 2–3 ounces (57–85 g) of meat and about ½ cup (125 g) of vegetables per meal. Only eat enough food to feel satisfied so you don’t feel uncomfortable later on. Store any leftover food for later if you feel full rather than forcing yourself to eat them. If you need to, have 4–5 smaller meals throughout the day rather than a few larger ones. If you still feel hungry, try drinking water since your body may confuse dehydration for hunger. Take smaller bites and set your...

TL;DR in English: Cut greasy and spicy foods out of your diet. Eat fruits, vegetables, and nuts to help neutralize your stomach acid. Incorporate more fiber into your meals to avoid overeating. Reduce your portion sizes so you don’t overeat. Eat slowly to help your body break down food easier. Stop drinking coffee so you have less acid in your stomach. Limit the amount of alcohol you drink.

Using small, zippered bags is the fast track to an organized purse! They’re great for storing smaller, easy-to-lose items that are too important not to pack in your purse, like toiletries, makeup, or pens. Pick up a few pouches, choosing different colors so you know what items go where. Even the most organized purse accumulates trash from time to time! To keep wrappers and receipts from dirtying up your main compartment, designate a small Ziploc as your “trash bag.” Fill it up throughout the day and toss the items into the garbage when you get home.  You can also use a small prescription pill bottle to hold trash. Reuse your trash baggie as long as you can, until it gets dirty. A purse organizer is basically a small bag-within-a-bag, complete with helpful compartments, that you slide into your larger bag. It’s a great tool for bags that don’t have their own divided sections, and can also make it easy to switch bags if you like to rotate between a few.  Grab an organizer online or from a department store. Take care of your organizer just as you would your normal purse! Keep it as neat as you can and designate sections to important items to stay organized. You can use whatever size of bag you want, but larger bags do tend to accumulate more clutter than smaller ones. Prioritize the things you really need to carry around with you all the time and leave some of the less necessary items at home when you can. You can also switch between bags when you need to. A small or medium-sized purse might be good for everyday use, but you may want a bigger tote for some special occasions, like a beach trip. Regular maintenance will keep the outside of your bag just as neat and clean as the inside! Try to give your purse a little attention every week to address stains and protect it from ordinary wear and tear.

Write down what you want to tell your friends. Use a positive tone to show that you're proud of who you are. Say only what feels comfortable to you. Practice what you want to say so it’s easier to share with your friends.

Some garters may just slip on. However, most will have a hook and clasp system or Velcro. Wrap it around your waist. Usually the closure goes in the back. Adjust it so it stays up but is comfortable.  Wrap the belt around your waist. It should sit about at your waistline. Attach it at the back by sliding the hooks into the clasps. Choose the line of clasps that is the most comfortable for you. This step is basically like attaching a bra. If you have trouble attaching it in the back, hook it together in the front, and then move it around to the front. Pull up your thigh highs to the right height. Start adjusting the straps to meet the top of your hose.   You'll want your straps to be at slightly different lengths. The ones in the back should be the longest, giving you room to bend over. The straps on the sides should be an inch shorter, and the ones on the front should be two inches shorter than the back, all of which will help you bend easier. It also helps when you sit down. Each clasp consists of a rubber nub and a metal piece that fits over it. To attach it, put the rubber nub underneath the top edge of the stocking. The clasp should reach straight down to the stocking, unless it's sewn on at an angle. It should fall about an inch past the top of the stocking. Slide the metal clasp over the nub. Pull up so the nub slides into place. Repeat with the remaining clasps around the belt.  When you fasten a clasp, push the rubber nub from behind so that you can see it sticking out through the front. However, don't push so hard that you tear a hole in your stockings. The top of each clasp has a wide end and a narrow end at the bottom. Start with the wide end, sliding it over the nub, then pull up so the narrow end is surrounding the nub, holding it in place. Be careful if you have plastic clasps. If you apply too much pressure to a plastic clasp, it will snap in two, and your garter won't be usable. You'll likely need to readjust once you've gotten your stockings settled to make sure they're at the right height....

TL;DR in English: Put the garter on. Put on your pantyhose. Attach the garter clasps to your thigh highs. Readjust as needed. Put on your underwear last.

Think about everything you’d like to say, then jot down the ideas that seem most important to you. Pour out your heart and say how you feel about your friends. Then, revise what you’ve written so that it’s clear and concise. You might write something like, “Lately, I’ve been dealing with a lot of conflict inside myself, but recently I realized something really important. You’re one of my closest friends, so I want to be my true self around you. I hope that you’ll accept me for who I am. I’m gay, and I’m ready to live my life out and proud.” Your sexuality or gender identity is part of you, so you have every right to be excited and proud to share it with people. Don't let worries about how people will react make you feel ashamed or like you're holding in a secret. As you plan what you want to say, keep your tone positive and celebratory. For instance, use an upbeat tone of voice while you're speaking. Additionally, focus on how you're sharing your truth rather than thinking of this as a dark secret. You are totally in control of what you say during your coming out. Don’t feel pressured to provide personal details or to explain yourself. Decide what you’re comfortable sharing, and stick to that. You don't need to provide "proof" of your sexuality or gender identity. Similarly, you don't need to explain how you realized your identity unless you want to do so. What you share is totally up to you. State what you want to say aloud so you can hear how it sounds. You might also sit in front of a mirror so you can practice telling it to someone else. Keep practicing until you feel comfortable with what you want to say.  If something feels wrong, don’t be afraid to change it. If you’re already out to a family member or best friend, ask them to help you practice. For instance, you might tell them what you plan to say and get their feedback.

TL;DR in English:


Write down your ideas. Write down your ideas and let them evolve.

Brainstorm your ideas. Take action on your ideas. Take a break from your project if you feel stuck. Notice what you like in others' works. Collaborate your ideas with others. Work with an experienced mentor.

There are many benefits that you can include in your compensation plan in addition to bonuses and other merit-based incentives. Examples include required benefits, like worker's compensation and health insurance, along with optional benefits, like various other types of insurance (health, life, or disability), vacation time, sick days, and stock options. Again, study which benefits are commonly offered to this type of employee in your industry. Revise benefit offerings according to your company goals. For example, a company with great benefits like paid time off, long maternity leave, and good stock options might help a company retain employees more easily. Include both short and long term options in your compensation plan. Ideally, your plan should have benefits that reward employees in the short run, such as bonuses and commissions. It should also have long term benefits, such as healthy retirement plans. Provide a health plan and possibly a dental plan, if it's in the budget. You may also want to include a flexible spending benefit.  Consider opportunities to excel with tuition reimbursement or promotions and pay raises. Provide family orientated benefits, such as an onsite childcare or daycare reimbursement. If your business does not do well or temporarily goes through hard times, you will likely have to pull expenses from your benefits, and this may cause resentment among your staff. It is always easier to add a benefit then take one away. So be realistic when designing your benefits offerings. You can always increase benefits over time to reward loyal employees. You may want to involve your lawyer to ensure that nothing is left vague. When hiring new employees, you may want to go over your benefits plan so that if there are any questions, the new employee can have you address them immediately. The same is true for all incentive plans. These must be clearly stated in writing.

TL;DR in English: Research the options. Offer a compensation plan that includes a mix of benefits. Only include benefits you can afford. Be clear when putting your benefits plan into your company policy book.

Set aside some time just to generate ideas. Think of a goal or a problem, then begin to think of solutions. Let your mind express any and all ideas, even if you initially think they are good or bad. Write down your ideas and allow them to evolve. Give yourself a time limit so that you can come up with as many ideas as you can within that time. Afterward, go through and pick out your best ideas and work with them. It’s not enough just to have great ideas, you must act on them. People might respect that you’re a creative thinker, but what matters is what you do with your ideas. The action on your ideas is how you will be known or remembered.  Write down all of your ideas and weed out the ones that aren’t realistic. Find ways to express the ones that you can create! For example, if you have an idea for an original dinner recipe, play around with some ingredients until the dish tastes like perfection. Have you noticed that lots of creative people tend to procrastinate? Sometimes, procrastination can help you be more creative. Taking a break from your work (but keeping it in the back of your mind) can help you approach it differently and try new things. So, if you’re stuck on something, give yourself a break and come back to it later. Something new might hit you. For example, if you’re writing a play and want to make it original, take a break from it (for days, weeks, or even months) and see what you come up with. Original artistic works, fashion statements, or opinions don't arise out of nothing. They are built on a framework of ideas, writings, paintings and outfits from people who came before them. They look at the world in a different way. Notice what you like or appreciate, then brainstorm ways to build off of it. Taking something and putting your own twist on it is one way to make original art. For example, write a fairytale story, but make it about animals or make the setting in outer space. Working jointly with others can help unlock your creativity and help you create something truly unique together....

TL;DR in English:


Understand the assignment. Determine what you hope to learn. Brainstorm ideas.

At the company you work for, you will have a specific job role and this is how you make the company money. If you can't do your job well, you will lose customers and you may become a liability, meaning that you lose the company money. To ensure you do your job well, you must learn how to do it to the company's standards. Learn from other employees, get a mentor, enroll in training courses and be eager to learn as much as you can. The results you get at work are ultimately what you will be judged on.  This is the most important part. The whole reason the company employs you is to perform in this job role. Do it correctly and do it well. Self-improvement and networking are important, but if your performance slips because of them, you won't be doing yourself any favors.  Think about the company's return on investment (ROI) on you. How much money are you making for them in relation to your salary? Doing so will help frame your contributions and help you find ways to increase your measurable value. Organize your tasks from most critical to least. When you've determined the most important 20 percent of your tasks, mark them separately from the rest. Spend the majority of your time and effort working on these, leaving the others to be completed quickly when you need to. This will allow you to do your best work on the most important tasks, rather than spreading yourself thin over both critical and non-critical tasks. Valuable employees don't stop working when the clock strikes five o'clock. If you have work to do on a project, stay later and get what you can done after hours. When you go home, bring your work with you and get it done around family time. Always be ready to respond to after-hours emails as well. This extra effort will get you noticed as a hard worker.  Understand that this work is not overtime, which requires additional pay, but simply additional work with no expectation of additional pay. Going the extra mile should also apply to the quality of your work. Some people do a good job and leave it there,...

TL;DR in English: Exceed expectations. Prioritize tasks. Go the extra mile. Become a self-starter. Be responsible.

As with any work your teacher assigns you, you want to know what is expected of you with regard to the project before you sit down to decide on a topic. Understanding the project is key for picking a topic that will meet the teacher’s requirements and keep you from getting frustrated as you work.  If the teacher has provided an assignment sheet, read it over with a pen or highlighter in hand and mark important details pertaining to the types of topic you may choose, the length of the presentation (if any), materials, sources required, etc. Pay attention to the due date as well—you don’t want to spend days working on a project only to run out of time before you finish! Write down any questions or concerns with the project assignment and ask your teacher (or, if you’re on a tight deadline and the teacher is unavailable, ask a reliable classmate). Be as specific as possible with your questions. For example, instead of saying, “I don’t understand the presentation,” you can say, “I don’t understand how the presentation is supposed to be formatted.” The latter example is much more likely to get you a clear explanation of what you are supposed to do. If you do a project “just to get it done” or “because you have to,” you’re less likely to enjoy it and less likely do your best work. Instead, try looking at the project as an opportunity to increase your skills, knowledge, and ability. Think about areas where you skills could use improvement and whether there things you’d like to or need to learn. How about areas where you’ve shown some weakness? It’s very common to shy away from working in areas that we don’t consider our strongest, but that can often be a mistake, as it keeps us from building ourselves up in those areas and widening our range of talents. Get out a piece of paper and a pen/pencil or open a blank document on your computer and set a timer for 5 minutes (don’t worry if 5 minutes isn’t long enough—you can always go longer if you need to). Then start the timer and write down every idea that comes into your...

Don't drink the last few drops of coffee from the pot.

Ingest prunes or other high-fiber foods. Drink peppermint, chamomile, or ginger tea. Mix up a solution of baking soda and water. Drink apple-cider vinegar. Sip on aloe vera juice.

You should leave the last few tablespoons (several ml) of coffee in the bottom of the kettle when you make cowboy coffee. All the grains will be concentrated in the last few drops, so it’s best to discard the last of the coffee rather than drinking it. For traditional cowboy coffee, the grounds don’t get strained from the coffee.

A common cause of stomach ache is constipation: your body needs to move its bowels, but something is blocking or impeding this movement.  You can ease constipation by eating or drinking fiber-rich items such as prunes, bran, or broccoli.  Prunes are particularly powerful as they contain the natural laxative sorbitol, as well as packing a mean, fiber-full punch.  If constipation persists after consuming fiber-rich foods and drinks, try a mild laxative such as a water-soluble powder or sennoside-containing tea. A cup of coffee can also stimulate your digestive tract muscles and cause a bowel movement.  Don't gulp it down all day long, though.  Coffee is a natural diuretic, so too much of it can cause dehydration and exacerbate constipation.  Prune juice is well known to help stimulate the bowels and get them moving.  Drink a small glass in the AM, and a small glass in the PM to help with constipation. Studies have shown that these three herbs can help mitigate nausea and general abdominal discomfort.  Ginger regulates digestion, while mint and chamomile can be particularly soothing to cramped muscles. You can also chew on boiled mint leaves or drink ginger water rather than drinking teas made from these herbs.  To make ginger water, toss a few chunks of ginger in hot water, steep, and strain. Most over-the-counter antacids contain baking soda as their primary ingredient, so next time skip the store and make your own antacid at home.   Simply dissolve a tablespoon into a glass of warm water and drink the solution slowly. Repeat this process every few hours until your indigestion or nausea subside. Unlike regular white vinegar, apple cider vinegar alleviates nausea by absorbing unwanted nutrients in your stomach. Mix two to three tablespoons of it into a glass of lukewarm water. If the taste doesn't put you off too much, you can sip on a glass every few hours until your nausea goes away. Purchase an organic, unpasteurized apple cider vinegar which clearly states that it contains 'the mother.'  This means that it...

If your bed is messy and unkept, your room will look dirty. However, if your bed is neatly made, your room will look much tidier. Make this a habit by making your bed every morning when you wake up. Wash your bedding every one or two weeks. If you sweat a lot while you sleep, you may need to wash it more frequently. If your kitchen counters get cluttered and dirty, your whole kitchen will look dirty. First, clear away any ingredients or tools immediately after you use them. Next, wipe the counters down with a damp paper towel to remove any food debris from the surface. Don’t let liquids or wet foods dry onto the counter. They are harder to clean and may damage the counter’s finish. If you have a stack of bills by the door or a pile of books next to the bed, you can arrange them into a neat pile. A neat pile will instantly make the room look much more organized. While you’re tidying the stack of clutter, see if there’s anything you can throw away. The less clutter you have, the easier it is to clean your house.

TL;DR in English: Make your bed every morning. Keep your kitchen counters clean. Arrange clutter into neat piles.

Think of who you are going on the date with. Take a few moments to yourselves. Include everyone. Avoid being too intimate or personal.

Many events and situations can trigger a stress response. A major life stressor can include living through a natural disaster (like a flood, hurricane, or earthquake), ending a relationship, starting a new school or job, or the death of a loved one. A stress response can also occur due to multiple events such as marital problems or school problems. Adjustment problems can occur from recurrent events (like going to chemotherapy or driving in a car after an accident)  or continuous events, such as living in an unsafe neighborhood. Problems with adjustment can manifest as physical symptoms. Some common symptoms include trembling or twitching, heart palpitations, and physical complaints such as stomach aches, headaches, and general aches and pains in the body. Notice if you have any of these symptoms and think back to when they started. Did the symptoms begin around a stressful time in your life? This may be related to stress response syndrome. You might feel nervous or tense, or find yourself crying frequently. Other symptoms include depression, anxiety, worry, and tension. You could also feel hopeless, sad, or helpless. You may also withdraw from people or social events or isolate yourself from others frequently.  Notice major shifts in your emotional functioning as related to stressors in your life. Did any emotional symptoms occur right after the event? Did they come gradually over the first months after an event? Emotional symptoms can onset immediately or over time. Some people experience behavioral changes as a result of experiencing distress. You may experience impulsive behavior such as impromptu shopping trips. Or you may experience defiant behavior, such as not wanting to follow directions or listen to authority. Children and teens may experience behavior changes more often than adults, and may act out their feelings. This can include skipping school, engaging in fights, or other negative behaviors.

TL;DR in English: Identify triggers of stress response syndrome. Be aware of physical symptoms. Look for emotional symptoms. Notice any changes in behavior.

Before you actually start planning any date you will want to think about who you are inviting on the date.  You will want to make sure that everyone going on the date will be compatible with one another.  Take a few moments to think about the personalities of those going on the date to make sure it will be a good one.  Think about the other couple you are bringing along and make sure they will be a good fit for you and your partner. Try to find a good mix of personalities that will prevent any one person from dominating the conversation or from shying away. Although you will be going on a double date, taking a few moments alone with your partner can be a good idea.  This small break can give you both some time to enjoy each others company alone and discuss your thoughts and feelings about the evening.  Think about some ways you can enjoy small moments as a couple during your double date.  You might try asking your date to grab the next round of drinks with you. Getting up to dance with your date can give you both a few minutes together. Going on a double date will require you all to pay careful attention to everyone's mood and level of engagement.  Whatever the reason, you will have to step in and engage someone if it feels like they aren't comfortable, are acting withdrawn, or are being excluded.  Keep everyone engaged and part of the evening to help make your double date a good one.  If someone hasn't spoken in some time you should steer your conversation in a direction that involves their thoughts. Make sure to focus your energy on the other couple and not just your own date. Part of double dating is sharing the evening with another couple.  This couple won't share the same bond that you and your date might.  Always avoid over-sharing personal details or being overly affectionate with your partner when on a double date to keep things comfortable.  Don't discuss anything too personal that might make the other couple uncomfortable. Keep your displays of affection light.

Choose your favorite format. Vary your diary entries. Experiment with pens and pencils. Try setting up an online diary.

Petroleum jelly products like Vaseline act as a shield, helping to seal in the natural moisture of your eyelashes and eyebrows. Just simply put some Vaseline petroleum jelly on the roots of your eyelashes before going to bed.  Rinse your eyelashes with warm water in the morning. You can even rub the Vaseline on your eyebrows. You could use a Q-Tip or clean mascara brush to apply. Try applying Vaseline to your eyelashes every night while you sleep and in weeks you should have longer, thicker eyelashes. While some holistic health practitioners warn against petroleum jelly, the kind that you can buy in stores is regarded as safe by both the FDA and Health Canada. However, petroleum jelly from unregulated markets may be dangerous. Stick to brand names from trusted retailers if you use this treatment. These oils are known to strengthen and stimulate eyelash growth. You could also mix them together.  Just pour a few drops of the oil onto a Q-Tip, and then coat your eyelashes with it. Keep it on your lashes for a few minutes (around 5-8 minutes) and then rinse. Do this once a day for 1-2 weeks, and you should notice the effect soon. Also apply olive or coconut oil on your eyelids and on the skin under your eyes every night (before you go to bed) for a noticeable effect. Apply olive or coconut oil with a cotton swab. Plan not to use eye makeup on days when you use oil, as the oil could cause cosmetics like mascara to run or bleed. Despite the disgusting idea of rubbing raw eggs on your eyelashes, eggs are a very good way of getting lengthy, healthy eyelashes.  The high protein in eggs can help create thicker and longer eyelashes. In addition, eggs contain biotin and B vitamins that play a major role in improving the overall texture of your lashes. Just beat 1 egg and 1 tablespoon of glycerin until you get a thick, creamy texture. Then rub this mixture onto your eyelashes using a cotton swab and keep on for 15 minutes. Rinse off using cold water. Repeat this remedy 3 times a week for a few months. Look for glycerin at...

TL;DR in English: Try the Vaseline trick. Put olive oil or coconut oil on your eyelashes. Put an egg pack on your eyelashes. Try using castor oil on your lashes. Use lemon peels to add volume to your eyelashes.

Do you want to write in an elegant handwritten journal? Or would you rather create a daily blog? There are benefits to both. A handwritten diary can be easily carried in your purse, backpack, or even in a pocket. An online blog is more interactive, and you can include links to other sites, photos, respond to comments, etc.  Try different formats until you know what you prefer. Personalize your diary to express your personality, using stickers, drawings, photographs, widgets, or anything else that you might want to include. You might sometimes write long entries, and other times just a quote that caught your attention. Include mementos of your day, such as flowers pressed between the pages of your diary, or a special card or paper wrapper. You might want to add a photo of something you saw that day, which may be accompanied by a story...or, it might not.  Try cartooning a diary entry. Particularly if you’ve never drawn before, this can be a fun thing to try to make your diary interesting. Write a daily entry in haiku, or another kind of poem for variety. If you write your diary by hand, try writing with a variety of pens or pencils. Writing in colored ink may change the things that you think to write about, or you might try color-coding your thoughts. Writing with a calligraphy pen or a fine fountain pen might lead to new ideas.  If you write with a pencil, you can easily include sketches in your diary. Colored pencils can also lend themselves to new and interesting ideas. Try writing with gel pens, ballpoint pens, felt-tipped pens, fine-tipped or thicker tipped pens. If you've never tried creating a diary online, explore some of the free options such as Penzu, Dear Diary, My Diary or Diary.com. Popular blogging programs, like WordPress, Live Journal, and Blogger, can also be set on "private" settings and used as a diary.  Digital diaries have many possibilities for personalization, and allow you to be very creative with content. For example, you could include audio clips, or video options. Consider adding...

TL;DR in English:


Use non-academic sources as a starting point. Identify locations of likely sources. Search for books and scholarly articles. Get a research librarian to assist you. Keep organized notes on each of your sources. Synthesize your information and tie up loose ends. Craft your thesis statement based on what you've found.

Your anchor should be a hook on a plate with a hole in it. Use a screwdriver attachment on your drill. Drive the screw through the hole in the plate, and into the hole you predrilled into the wall. Some anchors also include a washer to put between the screw and the anchor plate. Other anchors are basically screws with hooks at the end. In this case, just turn the hook’s screw into the hole you predrilled in the wall. If you used anchors with plates, take a screwdriver and give each screw a few turns by hand just to double check it’s secure. The screw should not jiggle. If you used screw-in hook anchors, make sure that the hook on each is facing upright and is tightly attached to the wall. If you are hanging something like a framed picture, it may have a wire that you can catch on the anchor hooks. Other objects will have a hole, hanger, eyelet, or something else that you can fit the end of the anchor hook into. If your object has nothing to help it hang on a hook, take a trip to the hardware store. You should be able to find a variety of hangers you can attach to your object.

TL;DR in English: Insert a screw into the anchor’s plate. Screw in hooks, alternatively. Tighten everything by hand. Hang the item on the brick wall.

Books, as well as newspaper and magazine articles, can increase your familiarity with your topic. They may also introduce you to academic sources and experts whose work you can seek out.  Documentary films can also serve as good introductory sources. You won't necessarily be referencing any of these sources in your project, you're simply using them to get a better feel for your topic, the experts in the field, and the sources available. Based on your preliminary research, determine what kind of sources are most likely to have information that will help you answer your research question. In most cases, you'll use a mixture of books, scholarly articles, and online sources.  For example, if you're researching history, your likely sources will be published books and scholarly articles by historians. If you're researching the development of smart phones, on the other hand, you'll probably find most of your sources online or in tech magazines. You may need to use a university or specialty library, which likely has resources that aren't available at libraries open to the general public. Contact the library you want to use to find out how you can gain access. Published books and scholarly articles are typically preferred sources for academic research. Retrieving sources typically involves making a trip to the library. You may be able to use the catalogue on the library's website to request titles before you go.  Depending on your topic, it may be possible to do all of your research online. This is likely if you're researching something trendy or cutting edge, such as a new tech development. Many scholarly articles can be found in electronic databases. University libraries typically allow free access to these databases for students and faculty. Research librarians are specifically trained to find sources of information. They can help locate books, articles, and other sources of information that you may not have been able to find on your own.  In the library, look for the desk called the "research desk" or "reference...

Remember the slope-intercept form for the equation of a line. Remember the standard form of a line. Use algebra to isolate the appropriate variable. Reorder the variables and constants, if necessary.

You can use diamonds to automatically research and build things instead of having to wait an allotted amount of time. This can level you up much faster and increase your progress through the game. Limit the amount that you do this so that you can stock up on diamonds as you play through the game. The longer that you play the game, the longer things take to build and the more useful diamonds become, so it's good to have a supply of them. Do not waste diamonds during the early stages of the game. You can also purchase diamonds with real money. Your character starts with 30 diamonds initially. After that, you'll gain one or two diamonds per level. This will be used as your main source of diamonds, so spend them sparingly. You can also get diamonds by purchasing them with real money. If you login to Hay Day using your Facebook account, you'll get an automatic five more diamonds to start off with. Connecting your account to Facebook will also let you see your Facebook friend's farms. Purple tickets will occasionally show up next to the newspaper icon. Clicking these tickets will allow you to watch a 30-second game trailer. If you complete the trailer, you'll earn diamonds. As you play through the game there are different landmarks that you can achieve in order to gain more free diamonds. Achievements include completing 2,000 truck deliveries, helping visitors who come to your farm, and placing ads in newspapers. Your character can start mining at level 24. Unlocking the mine costs 26,000 coins. You can use shovels, dynamite, or TNT to reveal different ore and diamonds from the mine. Click on the mine, then click on the tool that you want to use to extract the diamonds. Getting diamonds through mines is relatively rare, so you may have to use your mine multiple times before you get any diamonds. You can ask Tom to look for mining materials, or you can purchase them at roadside shops.  Tom is the farmhand that you unlock at level 14. You can make him search for any items in the game that you need. After an initial 3...

TL;DR in English: Use your diamonds sparingly. Keep leveling up. Login using your Facebook account. Click the purple ticket and watch a game trailer. Complete an achievement to earn a diamond. Earn diamonds through mining. Open a mystery box to gain diamonds.

The slope-intercept form is y=mx+b{\displaystyle y=mx+b}, where y{\displaystyle y} equals the y-coordinate of a point on the line, x{\displaystyle x} equals the x-coordinate of that same point, m{\displaystyle m} equals the slope of the line, and b{\displaystyle b} equals the y-intercept. The standard form is Ax+By=C{\displaystyle Ax+By=C}, where x{\displaystyle x} and y{\displaystyle y} are the coordinates of a point on the line, A{\displaystyle A} is a positive integer, and B{\displaystyle B} and C{\displaystyle C} are integers. Use inverse operations to move variables from one side of the equation to the other side. Remember to keep the equation balanced, which means that whatever you do to one side of the equation, you must also do to the other side. For example, you might have the equation of a line 3x+2y=4{\displaystyle 3x+2y=4}. This is in standard form. If you need to find the y-intercept of the line, you need to rearrange the formula to slope-intercept form by isolating the y{\displaystyle y} variable: Subtract 3x{\displaystyle 3x} from both sides of the equation:3x+2y−3x=4−3x{\displaystyle 3x+2y-3x=4-3x}2y=4−3x{\displaystyle 2y=4-3x}. Divide both sides by 2{\displaystyle 2}:2y2=4−3x2{\displaystyle {\frac {2y}{2}}={\frac {4-3x}{2}}}y=4−3x2{\displaystyle y={\frac {4-3x}{2}}} If you are changing an equation to slope-intercept or standard form, rearrange the variables, coefficients, and constants so that they follow the correct formula. For example, to change y=4−3x2{\displaystyle y={\frac {4-3x}{2}}} to the correct slope-intercept formula, you need to switch the order of the number in the numerator, then simplify:y=−3x+42{\displaystyle y={\frac {-3x+4}{2}}}y=−32x+2{\displaystyle y={\frac {-3}{2}}x+2}Now, since the formula is in proper slope-intercept form, it is easy to identify the y-intercept as 2.

The contract is not enforceable if the goods or services in the contract are illegal.   A contract is not legal or enforceable if the goods or services in the contract are illegal.   For example, you cannot enter into a contract to sell your boat to your neighbor if you are not the rightful owner of

Ensure that all parties have the capacity to enter a contract. Do not attempt to write a contract for something illegal. Do not coerce someone into entering a contract. Avoid fraudulent claims or terms within the contract.

First apply soap or soapy water to the patient's skin. Scrub it gently with a washcloth to remove dirt and bacteria, then place the washcloth in the soapy basin. Dip a second washcloth into the rinsing basin and use it to rinse away the soap. Pat the area dry with a towel.  Remember to rotate between the two washcloths: use one for soaping and one for rinsing. If the cloths become soiled, switch to clean ones. Replace the water in the basins as necessary. Gently wash the patient's face, ears and neck with soapy water. Rinse away the soap with a separate washcloth. Dry the cleansed area with a towel. Gently lift their head into the shampooing basin. Wet the hair by pouring water over the patient's head, taking care not to get it in their eyes. Apply shampoo, then rinse it away. Pat the hair dry with a towel. Fold over the sheet on the left side of the body down to the hip. Place a towel beneath the exposed arm. Wash and rinse the patient's shoulder, underarm, arm and hand. Dry the wet areas with a towel.  Dry the washed areas thoroughly, especially the underarm, to prevent chafing and bacteria growth. Recover with the sheet to keep the patient warm. Fold over the sheet to expose the right side. Place the towel beneath the other arm and repeat, washing, rinsing and drying the right shoulder, underarm, arm and hand.  Dry the washed areas thoroughly, especially the underarm, to prevent chafing and bacteria growth. Recover with the sheet to keep the patient warm. Fold the sheet down to the waist and gently wash and rinse the chest, stomach and sides. Be sure to wash carefully among any folds in the patient's skin, since bacteria tends to get trapped there. Dry the torso carefully, especially among the folds. Recover the patient with the sheet to keep the patient warm. Uncover the patient's right leg up to the waist, and wash, rinse and dry the leg and foot. Recover the right leg and uncover the left, then wash, rinse and dry the leg and foot. Recover the lower half of the body.

TL;DR in English: Use the same cleansing and rinsing method for the whole body. Start with the patient's face. Wash the patient's hair. Wash the patient's left arm and shoulder. Wash the patient's right arm and shoulder. Wash the patient's torso. Wash the patient's legs.

In order to enter into a contract, all parties involved must be legal adults (over the age of 18 in most states), of sound mind, and free of mental incapacity that precludes their understanding the content of the contract.   Some states allow minors to enter contracts with an adult co-signer, and some states may allow emancipated minors to sign their own contracts. Being of sound mind when entering a contract means that a person cannot be legally bound to a contract if she is intoxicated or otherwise impaired. A contract is not legal or enforceable if the goods or services in the contract are illegal. For example, you cannot contract someone into prostitution services in a state in which prostitution is illegal.  Similarly, you cannot have a contract involving the sale of an illegal substance, such as drugs. A contract becomes voidable if someone is coerced, threatened, or blackmailed into signing the contract.  All parties must enter the contract willingly and mindfully for the contract to be legal. Be sure that claims and conditions mentioned in the contract are not fraudulent.  Contracts based on fraudulent premises, whether or not the fraud was intentional, are not legally enforceable. For example, you cannot enter into a contract to sell your boat to your neighbor if you are not the rightful owner of the boat.  Claiming that the boat is yours when it isn’t constitutes fraud, and will void the contract altogether.

TL;DR in English:


The unique marking of a female black widow spider is the bright red hourglass shape on the underneath part of its abdomen.  The female spider has a black and shiny body with a large and round abdomen. The body is about 1 and ½ inches in length, and the entire spider, legs and all, is more than 1 inch across. They have fangs that are a little shorter than those of other spiders, yet still long enough to penetrate human skin. Black widow spiders are reported to be commonly found in the southern and western regions of the United States. Other sources and statistics report frequent sightings as far west as California, all along the eastern seaboard, south to Florida, and north as far as Okanagan in BC and central Alberta in Canada. Black widows like to live outside where there are plenty of flies to feed on; however, they can be found inside structures and shelters.  They prefer undisturbed places such as woodpiles, under simulated rock well covers, the eaves of a house, around fences, and other areas where debris piles up. Watch for black widows in dark, moist, and undisturbed places like meter boxes, under porches, porch furniture, and inside and around barns and sheds. Black widow spiders like to make their webs between objects that are solid and stationary. Some spiders prefer to make their webs in locations that are more flexible, like between shrubbery and tree branches.  The black widow's webs are purposefully made in an irregular shape, not like the typical and sometimes practically perfect webs made by other spiders. The fibers of the web are stronger than those found in most spider webs. They don't prey on human skin. Most bites occur when their webs are disturbed. They are not aggressive but will bite when they feel trapped or are touched. The females have the classic markings and the more potent venom. If you are bitten by a female black widow, then you need prompt medical attention.  The body of a female is usually larger in size than a male black widow spider, however the legs of a male are often...

TL;DR in English: Identify the black widow spider without disturbing it. Spot possible places where they like to live. Try not to disturb the web. Differentiate the males from the females.

There are dozens of options, and they all have different benefits.  Choose one that’s conveniently located and fits your budget. You can get a good photo without shelling out a lot of cash, but of course a professional photographer will offer the highest quality photo. Some places require appointments, so plan ahead. Some options include  shipping centers (in the U.S., this includes Fedex and UPS) places with memberships (such as Costco and AAA) Costco offers some of the cheapest passport photos. AAA will sometimes do it for free if you’ve booked a trip through their travel services.  pharmacies and retail stores (CVS, Rite Aid, Walgreens, and Walmart all offer this service) professional photography studios passport offices (many offer this service, but not all, so call ahead) registered passport expediters (if you need it in under two weeks) in your own home (but be sure to follow the strict requirements) Give your hair a little time to get over that fresh cut look by planning a haircut in advance if you need one.  About a week or two should still leave your hair looking neat and tidy by picture time. Of course, if you want the fresh cut look and trust your stylist not to botch it, you can wait until the last minute. If you like to shape your eyebrows, it’s best to do it about a day in advance to get rid of any redness before the photo but not give strays enough time to return. You could also get them waxed if you want to shell out a few bucks for this special occasion.  If you find that the skin around your eyebrows gets red after you pluck them, try applying cool, wet tea bags or a bit of aloe. To prevent dark shadows under your eyes and redness in your eyes, try to get enough sleep for several days before you take your passport photo. This will also help brighten your skin and make you look healthier.

TL;DR in English: Decide where to get your picture taken. Get a haircut about one to two weeks in advance. Pluck your eyebrows if that’s your thing. Get enough sleep.

Make sure that your computer is completely powered down before you work on the inside. Unplug it from the wall once it has been completely powered down. Your monitor is most likely connected to your old graphics card, so disconnect it from the back of your computer before removing the old card. Whenever you work inside of your computer, you should make sure that you're properly grounded. An electrostatic wriststrap attached to the bare metal of the case is the most convenient way to ground yourself when working in a computer. You can also ground yourself by touching a metal water tap with the water running. If you are upgrading, you'll need to remove your old graphics card before installing your new one. If you were using your motherboard's on-board graphics card, you may not have a card to remove.  Use a Phillips-head screwdriver to remove the screw that is securing the old card to the case. Unplug any cables connected to the old graphics card. Undo the latch underneath the back end of the old graphics card (PCIe). This latch helps secure the graphics card, so make sure to unlatch it before pulling the old card out. Gently pull the old card directly out of the slot. Pull the old card straight out of the slot. You may have to be firm, but don't force it out. If you can't pull the card out, make sure that the latch has been released and the Phillips screw has been removed from the card's bracket. Many newer graphics cards require two bays on the back of your computer. You may need to remove the protective panel for the next bay if you haven't used it before. These panels usually pop off, though it varies depending on your computer case. Make sure that there aren't any cables obstructing the slot and that none will get stretched underneath the back of the card. Push the card firmly down straight into the PCIe slot until you hear it latch and it is evenly inserted. Secure the card to the case using Phillips-head screws (most cards will come with a couple). Make sure to secure each bracket if the card takes up...

Make recordings of your music to play to venues. Pitch to venues where similar local artists are getting gigs. Offer to perform on a weeknight. Take high pay/low fan gigs to fund your band.

This way, you will be able to bring items in a backpack or bag without it being noticed. Even if you think you don’t have to change, stop by the bathroom anyway.  There’s nothing worse than sitting in class and feeling you’re having an emergency. Menstrual cups can be worn for up to 12 hours, and you don’t have to change them.  All you have to do is empty them. Menstrual cups are great for the environment as well as your hygiene. Most pockets are big enough to fit a pad or tampon. If you come to school with items already hidden on your person, you don’t have to worry about sneaking them out of class. Put on two in the morning and when one is saturated, go the bathroom and peel off the first one and throw it away and presto - fresh pad underneath.  Be careful not to let the adhesive stick too much to the pad underneath, as it might rip off some of the absorbent material.  It’s best to stagger them a bit, with one in front and one in back. If you have pads with wings, you can place the top pad on top of one of the wrappers so you don't have to worry about the two pads sticking together and can have a wrapper to dispose of the top one. Just fold the wings over the wings of the bottom pad and it should stay in place, even with the wrapper on underneath.

TL;DR in English: Go to the bathroom between classes. Use a menstrual cup. Keep hygiene items in your pocket. Layer your pads.

You can record the music on your computer or invest in nicer equipment to record with; the important thing is to have samples of your songs so venues can get an idea of what your sound is like. Try to have at least 2-3 tracks recorded before you start pitching. Try to have a digital copy of your songs to send through email and a hard copy (like a CD) to give to venues in person. Venues will be more likely to take a chance on your band if you're the type of act they usually book. Follow similar bands on social media and keep track of where they're performing. Add those venues to the list of venues you want to pitch. For example, if you're in a jazz band, find out what venues other local jazz bands are playing at. Those venues draw a crowd that enjoys jazz, so you'll have a better chance of booking a gig there than at a venue that frequently features alternative rock bands. Don't worry about getting a primetime Saturday-night slot if you're just starting out. Tell venues you're available for any open slots, including weeknights. Not as many bands will be competing for these spots, so you'll have an easier time getting a gig. Don't be afraid to play a paid gig at a birthday party or a wedding to earn some money. Take the money you make from those gigs and use it to pay for the expenses of playing a low pay/high fan gig where you'll get more exposure.

Wash a vase thoroughly with soap and warm water to sanitize it. Remove any leaves that sit below the water line. Recut the stems another 1 inch (2.5 cm), keeping them underwater. Set the rose stems inside a vase filled 3/4 of the way with water.

Every child with this condition has different experiences, so it's always a good idea to know these before attempting to teach your student. Cerebral palsy can affect muscle control, tone, and coordination, as well as balance and posture. This can impact fine motor, gross motor, and oral motor skills, as well as vision, speech, and hearing. Effects may vary from difficulties in learning to frequent seizures. A child with cerebral palsy may have an IEP (Individualized Education Plan). If you weren't involved in creating it, get to know the IEP before teaching the child. It will show where the child struggles and what he/she can achieve. That way you'll be able to provide the best help for the child. This will also help you adapt your teaching style; you'll be able to involve the child as much as possible if you know their strengths and their goals. A child with cerebral palsy may need more medical care than usual. Children with CP may experience seizures or be at risk of serious falls. Make sure you know how to handle each scenario.

TL;DR in English: Get to know how the student experiences their cerebral palsy. Know their IEP plan. Make sure you know what to do in an emergency.

This is different than the bucket you originally placed the roses in. A clean vase is essential to keep your roses fresh, since any bacteria left in the vase can kill the blooms. Use a bottle brush to get all the way down inside the vase. Run your vase on a normal cycle in the dishwasher if it’s dishwasher-safe. This prevents any bacteria that was on the leaves from contaminating the water. Use scissors to snip off the leaves as close to the stem as possible or pluck them off with your fingers.  Don't remove all of the upper leaves, though. Otherwise, the roses won't be able to pull water up the stem. If you notice any leaves drop into the water while you’re arranging the stems, fish them out immediately so they don’t dirty the water. This makes sure there are no air bubbles clogging the waterways in the stems. Do not pull them out of the water while you’re cutting them.  Cut the stems at a 45 degree angle, just like you did when you trimmed them from the bush. If you need to make the roses shorter to fit the vase, it's okay to cut the stems more than 1 inch (2.5 cm). You can wear a pair of gardening gloves to protect your hands from the thorns on the stems. Lukewarm or cool water is best for roses. The more flowers you have in the vase, the bigger the vase and the more water you’ll need.  Don’t overcrowd the roses in a small vase. They’ll wilt faster because they won’t get enough water. If you want to extend the life of your cut roses, sprinkle plant food into the water. You can buy premade plant food at a garden store, or make your own at home.

Use the black-line technique to show color and detail. Surround the glass with black barriers. Add a pale panel directly behind the object. Illuminate the background with diffuse lighting. Experiment with your photographs.

The human hand is made up of 27 bones: 8 in the wrist (carpal bones), 5 in the palm of the hand (metacarpal bones) and three sets of phalanges in the fingers (14 bones).  The proximal phalanges are the longest part of the finger located closest to the palm of the hand. The intermediate, or middle, phalanges come next, and then the distal phalanges are the farthest out, forming the “tips” of the fingers.  Acute injuries, such as falls, accidents, and sport injuries, are the most common causes for finger fractures.  Your fingertips are one of the most injury-prone areas of your body because they are involved in almost every activity you partake in throughout the day. Stable fractures are defined by a broken bone but little to no displacement at either end of the break. Also known as a nondisplaced fracture, stable fractures can be difficult to identify and may demonstrate symptoms similar to other forms of trauma. Any broken bone in which the two primary sides of the break are no longer touching or aligned is considered a displaced fracture. A fracture in which the broken bone has been displaced and a portion of it pushed through the skin is referred to as a compound fracture. Because of the severity of the damage to the bone and the surrounding tissue, this injury always requires immediate medical attention. This is a displaced fracture in which the bone has shattered into three or more pieces. This is often, but not always, associated with substantial tissue damage. The extreme pain and immobility of the affected limb that are often associated with this form of injury make it easier to diagnose.

TL;DR in English: Understand finger fractures. Know what a stable fracture looks like. Know what a displaced fracture looks like. Know what a compound fracture looks like. Know what a comminuted fracture looks like.

This setup results in a brightly illuminated glass object, with black lines creating a silhouette-like effect. Color and detail are generally easier to emphasize compared to the white-line setup, and the bright lighting can make weak reflections and glare invisible. Place the glass in a black photo box if you have one, or surround it with black matte barriers underneath, behind, and to each side of the object. Pull these side barriers close together, or use additional barriers, to block light from the front and leave only a small gap for your camera lens.  You can hold off on completely enclosing the area until after the setup below is complete, but keep this final goal in mind. You may need to use a "ceiling" for the area as well, if reflections are getting in over the top of the walls. This can be white or grey; the brighter the light source you'll be using, the darker this panel can be. Set this up directly behind the object from the perspective of the camera, and make it no wider than the object itself. If the panel is too wide, you could end up with white reflections or lens flare interfering with the clean, silhouetted appearance. You can use a specialized diffuser, or imitate the effect by covering your light source with a white tissue. Point this at the background panel. Use flags or barriers if necessary to avoid illuminating the glass directly. You're going for a soft "spotlight" effect on the background, which will in turn send light through the glass toward the camera. You can also try illuminating the glass directly from behind, sending the light through a sheet of white acrylic or a transparent canvas. This setup may be more difficult to adjust. Photograph the glass, and take a look at the result. If you aren't satisfied, adjust the brightness of the light source, or use additional photo flags or barriers to eliminate undesirable reflections.

It generally takes three bundles of shingles to cover 100 square feet (9.29 square meters). Asphalt shingle "bundles" are actually sealed in packages (the term bundle comes from wooden shingles which actually came tied up with wire in bundles). Measure your roof and buy appropriately. Measure the length and width of the individual sections of the roof, multiplying them together to determine the area. Add the areas of each section together, then divide by 100 to get the correct number of squares. Multiply this number by 3 to get the number of bundles you'll need to buy. This will help determine how the shingles will lay on the roof width. Most asphalt shingles are 3 feet (91.4 centimeters) in length. If your roof's width is not an even multiple of the shingle's length, you will have a partial piece on one end of each row. The bottom row of shingles must hang past the edge of the roof. For a wood shingle roof you would have to cut the shingles that go on the edge to create a straight line to accommodate this. Start removing the shingles at the peak farthest from the trash container, or the corner you want to collect the shingles in. Use a garden fork or a roofing shovel to pull them off quickly, use the hammer-method and go by hand for a more thorough job. Make sure that you protect the sides of the house and the windows during this process, such as by leaning a large piece of plywood against the house below where you are working. Otherwise you might break a window or damage the siding.   Pry up the nails and loosening the ridge caps. It's ok if you don't get all the nails at first, because you'll have a chance to go back through and remove them later. Remove the metal flashing around chimneys, vents, and valleys in the roof. Flashing in the valleys will almost always be trashed, especially. Some roofers will keep some of the flashing that's in good shape, but it's probably worth junking it all when you've got the chance. Sweep the roof as clean as possible. Remove nails that didn't come up earlier. Reattach...

TL;DR in English: Get the right number of shingles for the job. Measure the length of a shingle as it lies across the roof. Remove old shingles and flashing. Clean the roof. Install underlayment and new flashing. Choose the kind of starter course you will use. Use chalk lines to make a guide for yourself.

Before bacon can be battered and deep fried, it needs to be heated through to make sure it doesn't come out undercooked. Lay out your bacon strips on a pan, plate or baking dish, cutting them as needed so they'll fit in the fryer. Bake, pan fry or microwave the bacon until it's done, then allow it to cool.  Thick-cut bacon will work best for battering since it will be less brittle and makes for a heartier bite. Try to get your bacon slightly less done, as it will be cooked a second time later. Combine 3 eggs, 2 cups of whole milk and 3 cups of all-purpose flour in a large mixing bowl. Whisk the ingredients together until they form a thick batter. Add salt, pepper and other spices to taste. Refrigerate the batter for about 20 minutes to lower the temperature and help it set up.  Seasoned salt, garlic salt, onion powder, cayenne pepper and paprika all make great optional flavor additions to fry batter. The colder the batter is, the better it will fry to a crispy finish and protect the bacon from overcooking. Once the batter has cooled, take it out of the refrigerator and grab your precooked bacon. Dip the bacon into the batter with a pair of tongs, being sure each strip is generously coated on both sides. The bacon is now ready for the fryer.  Give the batter a quick stir after it comes out of the refrigerator. If it looks too thick, add an extra splash of milk and whisk again. If you're using a thin-sliced bacon, batter the strips by hand so they don't break. Place 2-3 strips of bacon into the hot oil and allow it to start frying. The number of strips you'll be able to cook per batch will mostly depend on the size of your pan or fryer. Try not to put in too many pieces at one time, or they could stick together or cause the batter to slough off. Watch out for popping oil when you put the bacon in the deep fryer. Even a small splatter could be extremely painful. Give the bacon a little time to absorb the oil and start sizzling. Since the light, airy batter will cause the bacon to float on top of the oil, the...

TL;DR in English: Prepare the bacon. Mix up a simple batter. Coat the bacon thoroughly. Drop the bacon in the fryer. Cook for 2 minutes on each side. Remove from the fryer and serve. Finished.

It's easy to fall into a case of early senioritis - where you don't want to do any of your schoolwork, because you feel like you're almost done. However, allowing your grades to drop will show up on your transcripts, which can potentially harm your opportunities for colleges and jobs. If you slack off too much or skip school, you may even put your graduation at risk. Don't let the lack of motivation in junior year bite you later on! Remember, if you fail a class in junior year, you don't have a lot of time to make it up - you'll either have to take summer school, which will take time away from your summer, or you'll have to take it again in senior year, which can result in you being overly stressed out. You'll need to meet your school's credit requirement in order to graduate, and by the time you're in junior year, you'll only have two years to make up any missing credits. Talk to your school counselor to make sure you're on track with your credits, to make plans for junior and senior year, and to figure out how to make up any missing or incomplete credits.  You'll usually be encouraged to take advanced classes in junior year, though it's best to only take advanced classes that you can handle and in subjects you enjoy.  Usually, your school's mandatory classes will cover a fair amount of your needed credits, but just taking mandatory classes won't get you all the credits you need. Check with your school counselor to see what you still need. If you're in AP or IB classes, or even if you just want the college credit, it's a good idea to pay attention to your classes and start studying for the advanced tests. Look up when the testing dates are and mark them down, and set aside time to study for them. It'll make it easier to achieve high scores - especially if your teachers are also giving you advice for the tests! You probably already have a homework schedule figured out from freshman or sophomore year; now's not the time to let it slide, even amongst college visits or your work. Junior year is often one of the...

Being independent builds off of taking control of your life. You'll need to be able to take care of yourself in any way you need to. That can include day-to-day personal maintenance, taking care of your home, going to work on time, being productive, and managing your money wisely.  Independence can take different forms at different ages. The key is to show independence that is appropriate for your age. Independence can also involve age-appropriate responsibilities. As you get older, your responsibilities will change, and you'll need to be able to accomplish what's expected of you. A teenager has dramatically different levels of independence than someone in their 20s or 30s, just as that individual would have different levels of independence than someone in their 50s or 60s. Look to peers you know and respect for a living example of what someone in your age range must do to be independent. If you're struggling with independence, try talking to a life coach or career counselor. You can find these services by searching online or in a phone book. As an adult, you'll need goals of your own creation. Goals help give your life meaning and purpose by giving you something to strive towards, and offering you accomplishments worth celebrating. Implementing your goals and working towards your next great accomplishment requires you to prioritize your life, both personally and professionally. When you make goals for yourself, studies show that S.M.A.R.T. (specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, time-bound) goals are the most likely to succeed. A S.M.A.R.T. goal should address the following components:  Specific - narrow down the scope of your goal. Rather than dealing with broad, generalized terms, focus on a clearly-defined outcome that you hope to achieve. Measurable - decide how you will measure success, both incremental and long-term. You'll need to know that you've achieved your goal at the end, and you'll need a way to track your progress along the way. Attainable - make sure that your goal can feasibly be...

TL;DR in English: Be independent. Develop and implement SMART goals. Strive for integrity and honesty. Take responsibility for your life.

There are several varieties of cranberry plants that can be used in home growing. The variety you choose will depend on what you intend to use the berries for.  Howes cranberries are small, red berries native to Massachusetts. They are easy to grow and will stay fresh for a long time after harvesting, if stored correctly. Stevens cranberries are a hybrid variety of cranberry designed for productivity and disease resistance. They are large and bright red in color.  Two more varieties are Ben Lear (large, burgundy-colored berries) and Early Black (small, deep red berries). However, these varieties are not recommended for first time growers as they are more difficult to care for and are more prone to disease and insect infestation than the other varieties. Cranberries are best grown in cooler climates. Consult a USDA plant hardiness zone map. Cranberries should be grown between zones two and five. This includes much of the northern and Midwestern United States. Cranberries can be planted at various times throughout the year, depending on the age of the plant.  Cuttings and seedlings can be planted throughout autumn, from October to early November. They can also be planted in springtime, from the middle of April to the end of May.  3 year old rooted plants -- which are still actively growing -- can sometimes be planted in summer, provided they are purchased in pots. When it comes to soil, cranberry plants have unique requirements -- they need soil with a low pH value and a high level of organic matter. As a result, it is often necessary to replace your existing soil instead of trying to alter it.  The average size for a cranberry plot is 4 foot (1.2 m) by 8 foot (2.4 m). However, if you are only growing a single plant, a 2 foot (0.6 m) by 2 foot (0.6 m) square will do just fine. Dig out the existing soil in the cranberry plot, to a depth of 6 to 8 inches (15.2 to 20.3 cm). Fill the plot in with peat moss, then mix in 1/2 pound of bone meal and 1 pound of blood meal. Optionally, you can add 1 cup of epsom salts...

In some cases, you may even be able to convince somewhat popular though still relatively unknown bands to allow you to shoot their music videos. This will help you learn how to manage the expectations and on-camera movements of band members, and could result in suitable material for your demo reel. Not all directors are skilled at film editing, but having a general knowledge of it will help you to coach the editors you work with to your desired result. Take some time to play around with film editing software until you are comfortable with the basics. Also, you should always make sure any finished productions are well-edited. You may want to consider taking a class on film editing, specifically. There's a great deal of psychology that goes into piecing together a story from separate shots, and knowing this can put you ahead of the curve. In particular, on-spec/brand competitions should receive priority, as these generally are more highly regarded than others. Try not to get discouraged if it takes you a while before you see any success at one of these. Competition can be fierce.  Keep improving upon your method and techniques as you make videos for competitions. Critique can be difficult to hear, but can result in drastic improvements. When you finally win or achieve a "shortlisted" or "runner up" ranking, you should include this information in any bio, personal statement, or resume you submit. These sorts of awards serve as proof that you are a serious film maker. Your demo reel is a short clip that shows prospective clients/employers what you can do as a music video director. It should include clips of your finest work, and shouldn't exceed more than 90 seconds in total length. It should be specific to the line of video production that you want to work in, like pop, heavy metal, or country.  These reels can either contain short snippets of many different scenes, or a few longer samples strung together. Don't forget to include your name and contact information in your demo reel.

If your cover is removable, either run it through the dryer, if the label permits it, or hang it to air dry.  Lay the plastic surface out to air dry. Once you have rinsed the plastic and metal parts of the seat, you can simply leave it sitting someplace to air dry. Wiping it with a dry cloth will expedite the process, but in general, it’s best to allow several hours or a day for it to dry completely. As noted, always only air dry harness straps and buckles. If you cannot remove the cover, you can leave the entire seat, cover and all, in a sunny place to dry. If you don't have sunshine, it will just take more time.  You can use odor-eliminating sprays on the base and fabric cover if desired.  Remember, however, that your child's skin will be in close contact with the cover, so be mindful of the materials in your chosen spray. Don't spray down the harness straps.  Just rely on air as the odor eliminator. Once it has dried completely, reattach the fabric cover to the seat base. Refer to the instruction manual if necessary. You basically need to reverse the process you used to remove the cover, so if you took mental or physical notes, or a picture, video, or sketch, you should be in good shape. Pull the strap back through the holes correctly, in the right order, to properly install the seat and make sure that it is safe for your child. Again, refer to the instruction manual if necessary.  Make sure that the straps do not twist when you thread them through the seat. Twists in the straps can cause them to wear out faster, and they may rub uncomfortably against your baby's skin. Even worse, if the straps are severely twisted, they may not hold your infant securely in a collision. If you have any concern about your re-installation, take your seat to a fire department or other site where free car seat safety checks are done.  Someone there will be happy to ensure a safe installation. Likewise, if you have any concerns about the integrity of any components, especially straps and buckles, replace them or the entire...

TL;DR in English: Dry the parts thoroughly. Combat odors with time and sunshine. Replace the cover. Reattach the straps.

St. John's Wort is a plant with bright yellow flowers and a few black dots along the margins of the flower (depending of the species). The leaves of the plant have transparent dots. Each flower will have five petals. You can find the flower growing in fields and pastures in sunny areas.  Flowers bloom from late June to early September.  To harvest the plant cut off the upper first third of the plant. Dry the flowers by hanging them upside down in a cool, dry place.  Once the flowers are dried, store them in an airtight glass container. You can keep them for up to one year. Find a picture of the flower and take it with you when you go harvesting. You can buy seeds and grow your own St. John's Wort as well. Plant your seeds in early spring after the last frost. To be safe, plant your seeds indoors first, and then replant outside in late spring when the plant is about two inches tall. Your flowers will not bloom until the second year. If you need your St. John's Wort immediately, it is best to harvest the plant or buy the dried flowers. If you do not want to grow or harvest your own, you can buy dried St. John's Wort from a store or online. You can then make your own tea and oil with the dried plant. Look for plants that were grown organically and harvested within the last year. Take the flowering tops and a couple of inches of the plant and place them in a glass jar. Cover the flowers with olive oil. Set the jar in a sunny window for two to four weeks until the oil becomes bright red. Once the oil is red, use a strainer to separate the flowers and the oil. Pour the oil into a bottle with a lid and keep it in a dark cupboard. The oil should last for a year. You will need 1/4 a cup of the plant if you are using fresh St. John's Wort for your tea. If you are using dried plant, you will only need two teaspoons. Pour a cup of boiling water over the plant and let it sit for 5 minutes. Strain the water to remove all of the plant and drink the tea. You can add honey and lemon to improve the taste.
