Jot down the formula of the ionic compound. Write the name of the metal. Add the name of the non-metal with an –ide ending. Combine the cation and anion names. Practice naming more simple ionic compounds.

Why did the two of you get into a fight? Sometimes friends disagree and need to clear the air, just like couples argue. Fighting isn’t always bad; you can express your feelings and resolve misunderstandings. But sometimes, a fight may be bigger than a simple disagreement, and it may cause you to reevaluate your friendship.  Know your limits. There may be some behaviors that you consider unforgivable. For example, you may not be able to tolerate betrayal, gossip, or cheating. If your fight crossed one of these lines, you may decide you need to end the friendship.  Sometimes friends may fight over different values. If this is the case, you may want to determine if sharing differing belief systems is a deal-breaker. For example, while you may not share the same political views, is this something that you can get past? Maybe you could agree to not talk about politics, or to share your views without arguing and agreeing to stop if things get hostile. Some friends may just be more confrontational, and having fights with each other is common. One or both of you may have certain behaviors that always trigger arguments. You may also notice fight patterns in your relationship, particularly if you have been friends for a while.  Consider your personalities. You may just be two people who like to argue -- with everyone or each other -- a lot. As long as that works for both of you, then it’s probably not necessary to end the friendship. But if you feel like you are fighting a lot, you might want to consider talking to your friend about arguing less. You and your friend may always find yourself fighting because of someone’s bad habits; for example, you are perpetually late in meeting your friend. If that’s the case, it may be better to address the behavior rather than end the friendship.  For example, you may notice that you and your friend don’t argue for long stretches at a time about anything, then all of the sudden have a huge blow-up which leaves you not speaking for weeks. You may want to talk to your friend about...

TL;DR in English: Consider the reasons behind your fight. Look at the history of your friendship. Think about your friend’s behavior. Consider your feelings about the friendship.

Let's say the ionic compound you're working with is NaCl. Use a pen or pencil to write this down on a sheet of paper. Or, if you're working in a classroom, write "NaCl" on the whiteboard. This is an example of a basic ionic compound. Basic compounds do not contain transition metals and contain only 2 ions. The first part of an ionic compound is called the "cation," which is a metal. This is the positively charged ion in the compound, and it is always written first in ionic compound formulas. Check the period table to find the name of “Na” if you need to. Na is sodium. So, write sodium. Regardless of the kind of ionic compound you’re dealing with, the name of the metal is always written first. The second component of an ionic compound is the non-metal anion. Write the non-metal's name with an "-ide" ending. Cl is chlorine. To add the "-ide" ending, just drop the 1 or 2 syllables ("-ine" in this case), and add "-ide" instead. Chlorine becomes chloride. This naming principle applies to other anions as well. For example, in an ionic compound, “Phosphorus” becomes “Phosphide” and “Iodine” becomes “Iodide.” Once you’ve found the names for the 2 components of the ionic compound, you’ve done nearly all of the work. Now you just need to put the parts together. NaCl can be written as sodium chloride. Once you've figured out how to name this ionic compound, try naming a few more simple ionic compounds. Memorizing a few common ionic compounds can help you have a better understanding of how to name ionic compounds. Remember that you don’t need to worry about the number of individual ions when naming the compounds. Here are a few more common ionic compounds:  Li2S = Lithium sulfide  Ag2S = Silver sulfide  MgCl2 = Magnesium chloride

Start with the correct squid. Soak your fries in a bowl of cold water.

Pack the calamari in a jar. Add the pickling spices and vinegar. Top with the oil. Refrigerate for one day to one week. Serve cold. Store chilled.

A potato with high starch and lower water content will always be best for french fries. Try using russet potatoes that are slightly older, if possible. To help maintain uniform shape, pick larger, evenly shaped potatoes. Soaking your fries in water removes excess starch and prevents the fries from getting stuck together. Soak your fries for five minutes and strain. Place them on a plate in a single layer then pat them with paper towels. Let them lay out for a few minutes to air dry.

TL;DR in English: Start with the correct potato. Soak your fries in a bowl of cold water.

Transfer the cooked squid rings and tentacles to your prepared jar. The jar should be anywhere from halfway to three-quarters full. Do not pack the jar to the very top, however, since there will not be enough room for the spices and liquid if you do so.    Place the remaining three bay leaves, black peppercorns, garlic, and oregano or rosemary in the jar. Pour the white vinegar on top.  While not strictly essential, you may want to toss the spices and squid gently inside the jar to spread the seasonings more evenly.     Pour enough vinegar over the contents of the jar to cover the squid completely. Make sure that there is at least 1 to 1.5 inches (2.5 to 3.75 cm) of empty headspace at the top of the jar when finished, however.     White vinegar is used in this recipe, but you can experiment some with the pickling liquid. For instance, try white wine or white wine vinegar. The liquid you use must be acidic, though, so keep that in mind before you choose to experiment with another option.    Slowly pour the oil on top of the contents in the jar. You should have a layer of oil that is roughly 3/4 inch (2 cm) thick.  The oil should float on top of the vinegar. It serves as another barrier against air and other contaminants.     Do not fill the jar to its brim. Always leave at least 1/4 to 1/2 inch (0.6 to 1.25 cm) of empty headspace at the top of the jar, just in case the contents expand during refrigeration.     After adding the oil, place the lid on the jar. Make sure that the seal on the lid is secure and airtight.    Place the sealed jar in your refrigerator and keep it there for a minimum of one day. For best results, allow the jar to sit in the refrigerator for a full week.  During this time, the pickling spices will marinate and flavor the calamari. The vinegar and remaining salt will be able to pickle the squid during this time, as well.     The longer you let the calamari rest, the stronger the flavor will be.    To serve the pickled calamari, remove it from the marinade and serve it immediately. Pickled...

Steady state cardio is any aerobic exercise that keeps your heart rate at a relatively stable level for at least 10 minutes.  This type of exercise will help burn calories and support your metabolism.  In general, it's recommended to get at least 150 minutes of aerobic activity each week (or 30 minutes five days a week).  Aim for a mix of moderate- and high-intensity activity.  This combination will burn calories from fat in addition to providing cardiovascular benefits.  A variety of activities can be considered moderate-intensity cardio including:  jogging/walking, running, biking, hiking, use the stair master or elliptical, swimming or dancing. Some studies even suggest up to 60 minutes of moderate-intensity cardio daily for the most effective reduction in stomach fat. Try to get in your cardio exercises in the morning before eating your first meal.  Exercising in this fasted state means your body will be using energy from its storage form — fat.  Try to include any type of cardio exercise in the morning.  Even a quick 20 – 30 minute walk can help your body use its excess fat stores for energy. Getting up earlier in the morning may be difficult.  Make it a priority and after a few weeks your body and mind will get used to getting up earlier. Make sure you go to bed earlier as well.  It's important to get adequate rest, so you may need to move up your bed time if you're planning on an AM workout. Although cardio is responsible for burning and reducing overall body fat, adding in some light strength training can help tone your stomach.  Include a variety of core strengthening and toning exercises.  When you've reduced the amount of stomach fat, toning your abdominal muscles will give you a more defined look. Try toning exercises like:  crunches, planks, bicycle crunches, or v-sits. Toning exercises will help strengthen muscles; however, it is not possible to "spot treat" this particular area. It is a myth that you can target where on your body you will lose fat, so doing abdominal exercises won't cause you...

Use a vacuum cleaner for routine cleaning. Rinse the filter for a deeper clean. Hose your filter down. Use the automatic cleaning function.

At birth, a newborn’s skin may appear smooth and slightly puffy. There may also be noticeable swelling. Some amount of puffiness, especially on an infant's head or eyes (called edema) is not uncommon and will go away. However, let your physician know if you notice increased swelling after birth, especially in a particular area, such as the newborn’s feet or hands. 24-36 hours after birth, a newborn’s skin may still be pinkish, but it may also begin to look flaky. There may be some skin peeling (most common in the hands and feet); normally, it will go away without issue. Your infant’s skin may still turn reddish when he or she cries, and turn slightly bluish or spotted if he or she becomes cold. A newborn’s skin may be covered in vernix caseosa, a white, cheesy substance. This may be present only at skin folds, such as on the legs. This protects the infant’s skin from amniotic fluid when in the womb, and will wash off during his or her first bath. Since the vernix caseosa washes away, you may not notice it for very long, if at all. ” Mild acne may develop in the first few weeks of an infant’s life. This is caused by the mother’s hormones that were passed to infant. The condition is harmless, and will clear on its own. Many infants will show “cradle cap” (Seborrheic dermatitis) at some point. The skin on top of the infant’s head will appear dry, flaky, and perhaps oily. Cradle cap is harmless and it will typically go away by the time an infant is one year old. You can care for cradle cap at home:  Rub the skin of your baby’s head with baby oil, mineral oil, or petroleum jelly an hour before shampooing. This will help to loosen dry and dead skin flakes. Wet the baby’s scalp before shampooing, and brush gently with a soft-bristle brush. This well help to remove cradle cap scales. Wash and rinse your baby’s scalp, then gently dry it with a towel.

TL;DR in English: Watch for swelling. Expect some peeling and flaking. Look for a natural coating on the skin. Expect some “baby acne. Care for “cradle cap,” if it appears.

Just pop the filter out or unclip it (depending on the make and model of your air conditioner) and use the tube extension on your vacuum cleaner to suck all the grit and dust out of the filter.  Replace the filter when you’ve finished cleaning it.  If you’ve taken good care of your air conditioner’s filter, you might not see a visible change in the filter when cleaning it.  Rest assured, it is getting clean. On the other hand, you might not be able to get all the dust and grit out of the filter.  Just use the vacuum to suck up as much as you can.  This method is best for giving your filter its regular cleaning. If, after you’ve vacuumed your filter, it still has a good deal of particulate attached, try washing it.  To get started, remove your air conditioner filter.  Mix one part vinegar and one part water.  For instance, you might mix five cups of water and five cups of vinegar.  Pour the mixture in a tub or a wide sink that can accommodate your filter.  Submerge your filter in the mixture for at least one hour.  If it is exceptionally grimy, leave it in for two hours or more. Drain the water and vinegar solution and dry the filter on a rack.  Replace it when dry. Instead of water and vinegar, you could mix a small amount of detergent or liquid dish soap into a volume of water that will cover your filter when it is submerged. If the weather is nice and your filter is too large to fit in your sink, take your filter outside and lean it against a wall.  Spray your hose on the filter.  Do not use a pressurized hose nozzle or you might risk tearing or damaging the flimsy filter.  You could also hose your filter down in your shower.  Just prop the filter up in your shower and, using your shower’s detachable showerhead, spray the filter’s entire surface, front and back, in a zig-zag motion. After hosing your filter down, allow it to dry, then replace it. For added effect, you could sprinkle a few spoonfuls of baking soda over your filter before spraying it down. Some modern air conditioners might be equipped with a...

In the rules of big two, the three of diamonds is the lowest ranked card, so it must be placed first either by itself or in some combination. The rules of big two revolve around the game’s own ranking of the cards and suits. The gameplay is essentially successive players placing increasingly ranked cards until no longer able.  The namesake of the game comes from it’s ranking of the game’s cards (from high to low): 2, Ace, King, Queen, Jack, 10 to 3. The suits are ranked (from high to low): spades, hearts, clubs, and diamonds. There are four combinations in which cards can be played: single cards, pairs of cards, triples, and five card groups. If the player with the three of diamonds has another three in their hand, or two threes, they might consider playing the card in a double or triple. The advantage to this is that it forces the remaining players to also play a double or triple, potentially damaging their ability to get cards out of their hand.  When playing a pair of cards, they must be of equal rank (ex. two nines or two jacks). Triples work in the same way. Higher suits will determine rank among equal pairs (ex. a nine of spades and of diamonds beats a nine of hearts and of clubs, because the spade is higher). For groups of five cards, there are five different ways to play them, many of the combinations similar to ones in poker. Naturally, five card groups are considered the most valuable because they are the most difficult to match and outrank. The groups are listed here in rank from lowest to highest:  You can play a straight, which is five cards of successive rank using any suits (ex. six of hearts, seven of diamonds, eight of hearts, nine of clubs, and ten of spades). When ranks are identical, the suit of the highest ranked card determines supremacy. Four of a kinds are also possible, and you include any other card to make a combination of five. The four must be of the same rank (ex. all 4 sevens, and a three of spades). Choosing between two four of a kinds, the rank of the four cards decides...

TL;DR in English: Begin the game by playing the three of diamonds. Play the three of diamonds in a pair or triple. Play the three of diamonds in a group of five. Continue play until everybody passes. Begin a new round. Score the remaining players.

Place the gravel and any decorations back into your clean fish bowl before putting clean water in the bowl. Make sure everything is arranged the way it was before so as not to upset the fish by changing their environment. Fill the fish bowl with room temperature water that has been treated or left out overnight to reach room temperature. If you choose to use dechlorinator, be careful not to spill it, as it could leave a chemical smell on your carpet or furniture.  Again, you may wish to use a dechlorinator rather than waiting overnight for chlorine levels to neutralize. If this is the case, make sure allow the water temperature to equalize before placing the fish back in the tank.  Be sure to cover the water or put it out of reach if you have pets or children. This will help you ensure the water is not contaminated while it is aging. Scoop your fish from the temporary holding tank using your fishnet or small bowl. Try to move the fish as quickly as possible to avoid stressing the fish. Also, take care not to drop the fish or let them fall, as they can be badly injured if this occurs. Place your fish back into the fish bowl that has been filled with clean water. Gently lower the fish into the water using a net or a bowl. Do not just dump the fish into the bowl. Fish are most likely to experience stress and environmental or temperature related maladies during and immediately after cleaning their tank. So, keep a close eye on your fish after putting them back in their bowl to ensure they are adjusting well to their cleaned environment.

Freeze mashed potatoes in .5 in (1.3 cm) thick patties on a baking sheet. Keep scalloped potatoes or potato casserole in the baking dish when freezing.

Clean the bath thoroughly first. Disinfectant and a very good rinse. Repeat this step every single time you bathe with a new piercing. Very hot water will cause your piercing to swell and hurt. If not possible, do everything you can to keep the piercing well clear of the water. Make sure a minimum amount of contact occurs between the piercing and the water. Do not allow any soap, shampoo, conditioner or any other chemicals to get on the piercing. Do not touch, pull, tug, brush against, wash over, scrub around or near the piercing whilst you are in the water. Then immediately rinse the wound out with sea salt water (one pinch in an eggcup of boiled and cooled water is about right) or tea tree oil. Ideally both. The purpose of this is to rinse out any bacteria, or soaps that might have snuck in there, and it is absolutely critically important that you do this as soon as you are out of the water.

TL;DR in English: Do it in your own, clean bath. Be sensible with the temperature of the water. If possible, cover the piercing with a waterproof dressing. Make the bath as quick as possible. Once you get out, pat the area dry very lightly with a clean, soft towel. Clean your piercing thoroughly before you sleep that night using normal procedure.

Use your hands to mold your leftover mashed potatoes into .5 in (1.3 cm) thick patties. Place the patties on a baking sheet, then cover it with plastic cling wrap. Put the mashed potatoes into the freezer for about 24 hours. Then, combine the mashed potato patties into a single airtight container. It’s best to eat them within a few weeks, as mashed potatoes don’t freeze well. Cool the dish evenly by putting it in your refrigerator for about 1-2 hours. Cover the food with moisture-resistant parchment paper, then cover it again with a lid or aluminum foil. When you're ready to reheat the dish, you can thaw it or put it directly into the oven while it's still frozen.  These types of potato dishes can be reheated in an oven at 400 °F (204 °C) for 25-30 minutes. If you have one, use a food thermometer to make sure the dish's internal temperature is at least 165 °F (74 °C). If you're making the recipe with the intention of freezing it, stop cooking the dish when it has a light brown color and the potatoes feel almost tender.

You will need some sort of heat-resistant container, such as a mason jar or an old candle holder, to pour your melted wax into. Make sure that the mouth of your container is wide enough for you to reach into and that the container can withstand high temperatures. You can use any candle wax for your candles, such as paraffin, soy, or even old, unscented candles. Cut or break your chosen wax into cubes. Make sure that you have enough to fill your container, plus some extra. Wax shrinks a little when it hardens, and you may find that you will have to add a little extra wax into the container during the cooling process. Fill your double boiler with water and place it on the stove, then fill the smaller chamber with wax. Turn on the stove and wait until the wax melts. It will look mostly clear.  If you do not have a double boiler, you can make your own by filling a large pot part-way with water and placing a smaller, heat-resistant container, such as a glass measuring cup, inside it. The smaller container should be at least as tall as the larger pot; it should not be submerged in the water. Place the candle wax into the smaller container, and set the large pot onto the stove. If you want to add some color to your candle, you can add in some crayons or wax dye. Wax dye usually comes in blocks, and you can find it online or in the candle-making section of an arts and crafts store. If you choose to add some color, be sure to stir your wax to blend it all in. Use about ½ teaspoon or 10 drops of oil per one pound of wax. You can use more essential oil if you'd like a more potent candle, or less essential oil if you'd prefer a less potent one. You can find citronella essential oil online or in the essential oil section of a health food store. Once you have added the oil, stir the wax to mix it all together.  Be sure to use essential oil, as a synthetic citronella oil (or citronella scent) will not be as effective at keeping the bugs away.  You can also add other candle-making scents to help compliment the citronella....

If you live in a coastal community, you probably have an evacuation route, even if you're not aware of it or if it's not often talked about. In short, it'll be the quickest way to reach high ground. You want to be, ideally, 2 miles (3.2 km) away from shore and at least 100 feet (30.5 m) above sea level.  If you are a tourist, ask your hotel or various approachable locals about policy, if you're concerned. Familiarize yourself with the terrain so if the worst were to happen, you could fend for yourself. Even though you'll probably be following everyone else, know that they're heading for high ground, too, and you should do the same. And those evacuation routes won't really do you much good if you don't practice them. So round up the kids and the family dog and...GO. How long does it take to reach your safety spot? Are there any potential issues that could crop up? Do you know how to reach your back-up route in the event one is impassable or jammed? You want one available for wherever you may be when the time comes. Worst-case scenario is you get caught somewhere for a few days before evacuations start happening, so you want 72 hours worth of goods.

Pay attention to how long your laryngitis lasts. Be aware of dangerous symptoms, and seek medical attention immediately. Be alert to sudden changes in your child's condition. Notice how frequently you have laryngitis.

No person is ever perfect, but as the U.S. author John Steinbeck once said “Now that you don’t have to be perfect, you can be good.” Remind yourself that even Olympic gold medalists get points off on their scores (but still win).  That Albert Einstein made (but learned from) his mistakes and imperfect solutions.  Never let “perfect” undermine your self-esteem and become the enemy of all the excellent, worthwhile (but unfortunately imperfect) things you are capable of.  Striving for absolute “perfection” can be counterproductive, because it can diminish an accomplishment or task completion just because it is not flawless success.   Perfectionism is also closely linked to depression, troubled relationships, and decreased life satisfaction. If you are unsure whether something you wish to do will upset your parents, ask first. If you are hesitant to ask, it is probably a good sign that it will upset your parents.  When asking, always ensure you've thought through the possible outcomes of what you are asking to do and anticipate the concerns your parents will have. Don't get upset.  Although your parents may seem resistant to your suggestion, remember to stay cool-headed and present facts and examples that illustrate why you should do something and why you are capable of handling any outcomes. Especially if you are still living at home, if your parents say "no," always honor their wishes, even if it is not what you would prefer. When you have promised parents you will do something, but wait until you have to be told again (and again), it can create negative tensions.  Set expectations early.  Say “Mom, I have [x, y and z] to finish before I’ll have time, but as soon as I am free, I will take care of this,” then complete all tasks before having to be asked additional times. Anticipate needs and fill them. Do you know what days garbage runs on? Are guest expected over the weekend?

If you are still experiencing laryngitis symptoms after two weeks, it's best to seek medical attention. Your doctor will be able to determine if you are dealing with a severe case of laryngitis or a different condition. If you are dealing with any of the symptoms below, you should go see a doctor or medical professional as soon as possible:  Increasing pain Persistent fever Difficulty breathing Trouble swallowing Coughing up blood Difficulty managing your own saliva If you suspect your child has laryngitis, and he experiences any of the symptoms listed below, do not hesitate to seek medical attention. He might have a more serious respiratory condition such as croup.  Increased drooling Trouble swallowing or breathing Fever higher than 103°F (39.4°C) Muffled speech (also known as a hot potato voice) When he inhales, he makes a high-pitched breathing sound If you frequently suffer from laryngitis, it is advisable to talk with your doctor about this situation so she can determine the underlying cause and recommend a treatment plan. Chronic episodes of laryngitis might be a result of one of these medical conditions:  Sinus or allergy problems Bacterial or fungal infection Acid reflux, or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) Cancer Vocal chord paralysis due to an injury, tumor, or stroke

TL;DR in English:


Ask for a thyroid check. Ask for a urine test.

Place the 2 edges that you’re going to seam together in close proximity—roughly 1–2 in (2.5–5.1 cm) apart. This will give you enough space to apply the 2-part epoxy to the edges, but also make it easier to squeeze the pieces together quickly. This also gives you the opportunity to take one more look at how well the 2 pieces match up. Buy a kit with rubber suction cups and metal turnbuckles (which look like very long bolts) that are intended for clamping countertop seams. For each pair of suction cups, thread a turnbuckle through the openings in the top by turning it clockwise. You want the suction cups to be spaced about 4–6 in (10–15 cm) apart on the turnbuckle so you’ll have room to work between and beneath them.  2 pairs of suction cups and 2 turnbuckles should be sufficient for most countertop seams, but you can use 3 or more for longer seams. You can also buy or rent a tool known as a “seam puller” or “seam setter” that uses vacuum pumps to pull and hold the granite pieces together. If you choose one of these, follow the instructions for proper use. Think of it as placing 2 or 3 “bridges” over the seam, with each turnbuckle serving as the bridge span and the suction cups as the bridge piers. Try to space the suction cups an equal distance from the seam—roughly 2–3 in (5.1–7.6 cm) each.  Make sure the suction cups stick well to the granite. Try moistening the underside of each cup with a damp fingertip if needed. After you apply the 2-part epoxy to the seam, you’ll tighten the turnbuckles to pull the pieces of granite tightly together.

TL;DR in English: Lay the 2 pieces of granite side-by-side. Thread turnbuckles through 2-3 pairs of suction cups. Stick each pair of suction cups on either side of the granite seam.

If you are concerned about your iodine levels and needs, ask for a check of your thyroid function. Iodine deficiencies can cause enlarged thyroid glands (goiter) and can often be corrected through dietary changes, medication, or iodine supplementation. Excess dietary iodine is secreted in the urine, so iodine levels can be easily assessed through urine checks; some health professionals may request a series of checks to get a more accurate representation of your average iodine levels. If you are deficient in urinary iodine, your health professional can recommend the best way to address the deficiency.

Tell the story as yourself, using "I" and "me." Your introduction provides the setting and context for your narrative. Let the reader know what you will be writing about, who the major "characters" are, and the purpose of your narrative. This purpose is your thesis statement. A narrative thesis statement may offer the lesson you learned or talk about the impact of the moment on your life, such as "The most memorable moment in which I showed courage happened in seventh grade." It could also identify a theme that connects your story to a greater theme, such as "Most people do not know how courageous they can be until they're faced with danger. This was true for me, too." Use description, metaphor, anecdotes, dialogue and other literary devices. You may want to structure your essay chronologically to show the development of the lesson over time. This is usually the clearest way to structure your essay. Use words such as "then," "next," and "finally" to show your progress. This is where you come back to the thesis you gave in the beginning. What did you learn? How has the experience changed you in some way?

Most elements can naturally occur in multiple forms, or isotopes. The mass number for each isotope is the sum of numbers of protons and neutrons in the nucleus. Each proton and each neutron weigh 1 atomic mass unit (amu). The only difference between two isotopes of the same element is the number of neutrons per atom, which affects the atom's mass. However, the element always has the same number of protons.  The average atomic mass of the element takes the variations of the number of neutrons into account, and tells you the average mass per atom in a typical sample of that element. For example, the element silver (Ag) has two naturally occurring isotopes: Ag-107 and Ag-109 (or 107Ag and 109Ag). Isotopes are named after the "mass number," or the sum of protons and neutrons in one atom. This means Ag-109 has two more neutrons per atom than Ag-107, giving it slightly more mass. You'll need two pieces of information for each isotope, which you can look up in a reference book or an online source such as webelements.com. The first is the atomic mass, or the mass of one atom of each isotope. Isotopes with more neutrons have more mass.  For example, the silver isotope Ag-107 has an atomic mass of 106.90509 amu (atomic mass units). The isotope Ag-109 is slightly heavier with a mass of 108.90470. The last couple decimal places might be slightly different in different sources. Don't include any numbers in parentheses after the mass. The abundance tells you how common the isotope is, as a percentage of all atoms of the element. Each isotope contributes proportionally to its abundance (the more abundant the isotope, the more it will contribute to the average atomic mass). You can find this in the same source you found the mass. The abundances of all isotopes should add up to 100% (though it might be slightly off due to rounding errors).  The isotope Ag-107 has an abundance of 51.86%. Ag-109 is slightly less common with an abundance of 48.14%. This means that a typical sample of silver is 51.86% Ag-107 and 48.14% Ag-109....

TL;DR in English: Understand isotopes and atomic masses. Look up the mass of each isotope. Write down the abundance of each isotope. Turn your abundance percentages into decimals. Find the weighted average of the atomic mass of its stable isotopes.

Sprinkle your cut avocado with lemon or lime juice. Cover it in clear plastic wrap. Monitor it for ripeness.

Before you begin building a fire, it’s important to verify that fires are allowed in the area. Look around your campsite for posted signs, which will usually inform you if fires aren’t permitted. You can also ask a ranger or the campsite’s host if fires are allowed.  Don’t assume that a campfire is permitted just because there’s a fire ring at your campsite. It may be intended for use with a camping stove but not an open flame. In some cases, there may be fire restrictions in place, which limit the types of fires that you are permitted to light. Make sure you understand what materials you’re allowed to use for your fire. Campfires may not be permitted at certain altitudes, in areas that are experiencing droughts and are extremely dry, or at times when the winds are very strong. Some campsites have specific fire rings designed for building a fire. However, if you’re camping in an area that doesn’t have a fire ring, it’s important to choose the right spot for the fire. Make sure that the site is at least 15-feet from tents, shrubs, trees, and any other flammable objects.  If your campsite has a fire ring, there may be ashes in it from a previous fire. Push them to the outside of the ring to make room for your fire. If the ashes are completely cold, you can also place them in a plastic bag so can dispose of them properly later. Make sure the spot that you choose is shielded from wind gusts, which can not only make it more difficult to light but can help spread the fire if the flames get too large. It’s best to build a campfire on bare dirt, so you may need to clear the spot you’ve chosen. Remove any dead grass, leaves, or other vegetation to create an 8- to 10-foot area of bare soil for the fire. Next, dig down into the dirt for several inches to create a pit to contain the fire.  Keep the removed dirt close to the fire. You can use it to help smother the flames in case of an emergency. You can place the removed dirt in a mounded ring around your fire pit to serve as a firewall. Setting large rocks around the...

Since your avocado is open and vulnerable to the world, keep it from turning brown and too mushy with an acidic agent like lemon juice. You want it to ripen, not ruin. Place the two halves back together and wrap it in plastic wrap as if it were whole. Place it in the refrigerator. If you don't have plastic wrap, use an airtight, resealable container. The length of time it needs to ripen all depends on how far along your avocado was in the process. Take it out and prod it -- when it becomes soft and seems edible, give it a taste test. If it's not quite there, put it back in.

Hold your four dominant fingers together and hit the head of the tambourine in the top or bottom third of the tambourine. Play a simple standard strike to whatever beat or rhythm the accompanying music requires. Striking the tambourine in the center usually produces a muddled tone. Hold the tambourine in your non-dominant hand and hit the head with a snare drumstick. Use more pressure while you hit the head for a louder sound and vice versa for softer. Hold the tambourine at a slight angle from horizontal, and curl your four dominant fingers into a fist. Press your thumb against the tambourine's head and drag it in a circular motion. This should cause the zils, or metal cymbals, to make a sustained jingling sound. Thumb rolls are ideal for short jingling sounds but, if you need something longer than a few seconds, a shake roll will work better. Hold the tambourine vertically in front of you and twist it back and forth with your non-dominant hand. Shake it as quickly or as slowly as you want depending on the rhythm you're trying to achieve.

TL;DR in English: Try a standard strike. Beat a snare drumstick against the tambourine for a louder sound. Do a thumb roll for a continuous sound instead of a rhythm. Use a shake roll for longer periods of time than a thumb roll.

Place clams on a clean, dry towel, and shuffle through them loosely. Discard any that look abnormal or are open, in the outside trash, otherwise their stench will quickly overpower. . Have something like a bucket, tub, or sink in which to soak the clams. The soaking process will clean the clams prior to cooking.  Make a weak brine solution – 1/3 cup of non-iodized salt (iodine will kill clams) to one gallon (3.7 liters) of water should work. Soak clams in the brine for about fifteen minutes, to remove all grit from inside and outside the clam. Fresh water works decently as well. Pour the clams into a strainer, and hold under a stream of cold water. Scrub thoroughly with a metal brush. Place clams back on the towel you had them on earlier. Rub them dry gently to remove any final grit. For every pound (453g) of clams, add half a cup of water. Layer the clams into the cooking container with the water (or white wine). Cover the cooking container and place over high heat. Here, you can choose to add the aromatic ingredients listed above. They are not needed, but if you prefer more flavorful clams, add the extra ingredients, or even just some of them. Keep in mind that the amounts are for three pounds (1.3kg) of clam, so you may need to add or subtract amounts depending on how many clams you have.  If you do chose to add them, this is the moment to do so. the clams. Allow the clams enough time to open their shells - this will be indicated by a burst of steam and popped-open shells, anywhere from 2–3 minutes to 5-10 minutes, depending on the type of clams. If some don't open in this time, discard them as they probably were already dead. Cook Stephanie Alexander even suggests giving the ones that do not open another go at steaming because sometimes the clams have a very tight and vigorous hold on the shell (be sure to remove those that have already opened as they're ready). Remove the open clams from the kettle or other container and place them in a dish, possibly with a small amount of the broth around them. Lemon...

To run a successful warehouse operation, you'll need to listen and respond to your workers. Consider implementing an open-door policy for any employees with questions or concerns. You can also allow workers to make anonymous comments or suggestions via a comments box. This will allow you to deal with employee complaints before they become serious problems. Look for potential employees who conduct themselves professionally and are skilled enough for the position.  Once you have several applicants for the position, make a hiring decision based on their applications and interviews. Involve the appropriate supervisor in the decision. He or she may have good insight in picking the right applicant. Once a new employee has been hired, you may need to help them get started. This may involve supervising their training or performing parts of their training yourself. You may want to show them around the warehouse and introduce them to other supervisors with whom they may be working.   Make yourself available in case new hires have questions while they are settling in. Retraining may also be required, as processes within the warehouse's organization may change. Make sure to schedule time for retraining each employee if this is the case. You can also cross-train employees (train them in more than one role) so that if one employee is ill or fired, others can temporarily take their place. Meet with all employees regularly and review their performance. This is an opportunity for growth an encouragement. Talk to the employee about his strengths and reward excellent performance and behavior. Discuss ways in which the employee can improve, address any weaknesses or bad behavior, and make a plan for improvement.  You may also ask supervisors for input regarding employee performance. Make sure you follow up with any corrective actions. Letting employees go is never easy, but a good manager recognizes when doing so is necessary.

While you’re studying math or working on your homework, make your environment as distraction-free as possible. Put the cell phone aside and turn off the TV. Don’t have anything other than your textbook and a calculator on your desk, as you might be tempted to play with the object and lose concentration. If studying with friends distracts you from your work, plan to do your math work alone. If it helps, you could set a timer (say, for 1 hour) and aim to concentrate on the work before you in the time you’ve set aside for it. There will plenty of time for the other things later. Your detailed notes won’t do you much good if you never refer back to them! When you sit down to do your homework or solve a few math problems, take 10–15 minutes to re-read the notes you took during the previous math lecture. This will keep the steps you’ll use to solve an equation or calculate a variable fresh in your mind and prevent any potential misunderstandings. If you’re confused by your notes or can’t read your own handwriting, try re-reading the chapter of your math textbook that you’re currently working through. Doing this will help you to understand the mathematical topics you’re currently working on. Instead of viewing your math homework as an obligation, look at it as a great way to improve your math skills on your own! To that end, make sure that you do 100% of the problems on each assignment you’re given. If you’re not quite sure how to do an assigned problem or feel like it’s over your head, speak to your teacher after class and ask for their help. If you’d rather not ask the teacher, you could also ask one of your peers or friends how to solve a tricky problem. Once you are finished with the assigned homework problems, try working a few extra ones in an area of math that you’re struggling to understand. After completing 3–5 extra problems, check your answers against those given in the back of the book. If one of your answers is incorrect, check your work and find where you slipped up. Working extra problems is a great...

TL;DR in English: Turn off and remove all distractions to increase your focus. Read through the math-related notes you took during class. Complete every problem on all of your math assignments. Work additional problems on your own to master difficult topics. Break down tough problems into easier, smaller parts. Work example problems and check your answer against the given result. Figure out why you missed the problems that you solved incorrectly. Explain tricky concepts to your peers to understand the math better. Apply math concepts to real-world issues to make them more relatable. Work with a tutor for personal instruction and mentoring.

By booking early, you’ll have a larger selection of boats to choose from. If negotiations with 1 broker fall through, you will still have time to hire another. You must hire a broker to charter a yacht. The broker will present you with many different options for boats. They can also provide advice regarding your trip, such as what to do at your destination or what to look for in a good yacht.  Make sure your broker is a member of a national or international yacht brokerage organization, such as the International Yacht Broker’s Association, the Mediterranean Yacht Broker’s Association, or the American Yacht Charter Association. You can look up yacht charter brokerages online. If you know someone who has chartered a yacht in the past, ask them for their opinion. Yacht brokers are paid on commission by the yacht's owner. In most cases, you will not have to pay the broker. Once you have found the broker, they will send you a list of boats that fit your budget and travel plans. Go through each boat carefully. Once you have chosen a few you like, call your broker and ask questions about each vessel. Some questions you may want to ask include:  What is the safety record of this boat? What kind of insurance does the boat have? What will happen if the boat breaks down or becomes unavailable before my trip? What is the smoking policy on board? What is the pet policy? Is this crew good with children? Do you have a certified dive master on board if I want to go Scuba diving? The Charter Hire is the base price of the boat, which covers the cost of the crew and the use of the boat. These fees can vary based on the owner, model of ship, crew size, and amenities of the ship. The charter can cost anywhere from $25,000 to $1,000,000 USD a week. This document lists everything consumable on the yacht. The APA covers all fuel, food, and custom duties that you are responsible for. Read through the APA carefully. Ask your broker about any fees you don’t understand.

Use the thin handle of a comb to decrease tension at the scalp. Spray a leave-in conditioner at the base of the braids. Use a braid spray to soften and loosen your hair. Massage your scalp with oil every day for 1 to 2 minutes.

Following the same process as with the primer, cut in with your chosen paint color. This will help your paint job look more professional, since you won’t have to squish your roller into the corners of the room. Depending on the color you’ve chosen and the original color of your walls, you might need 2 or 3 coats of paint. You should apply this many coats even where you’re cutting in. Otherwise, the paneling might show through on your edges. Once you’re done cutting in the room with paint, you can apply the rest of the paint with a roller. Start at the edge of your cut-ins, and roll on the paint in large vertical strips. Make sure the paint gets into the edges between the paneling. Keep the paint brush you used for cutting in near you during this step. If you notice paint clumping up in the edges between panels, swipe down with the paint brush. This will remove the excess paint and make your wall look smooth. Sanding the paint job between coats should remove any clumps you couldn’t get with your paint brush. Wait for your paint job to be completely dry, usually overnight. Use 100-grit sandpaper on a sanding pole or orbital sander to lightly sand the walls. Wipe down the walls with a damp rag after each round of sanding. Wear safety glasses and a paper face mask while you sand. They can prevent any dust from getting into your eyes or mouth and irritating you. It will probably take 2 or 3 coats of paint for the wood paneling to be completely covered. If the paneling is darker, it may take more. Allow the final coat of paint to dry overnight, and then remove any painters' tape and tarps. You can also replace furniture at this point.

TL;DR in English: Cut in with your choice of paint. Roll a coat of paint onto the wall. Let the wall dry completely before lightly sanding it between coats. Repeat painting and sanding until you have the desired color on your walls.

Slip the thin end of a long-handled fine-tooth comb underneath cornrows or tight braids to get some relief. You could also use the blunt end of a skewer or the eraser end of a pencil. Gently wiggle the eraser, skewer, or handle to loosen the braid at the scalp. Be careful and take your time so as not to ruin your braids. Keep in mind that the braids will loosen up on their own over time. Adding a leave-in conditioner to your dry braids can reduce their tension and tightness. Lightly mist your scalp with leave-in conditioner and use your fingers to gently work the conditioner into your scalp and braids. Alternatively, you could spray cold water onto your scalp for instant relief. If you get your hair braided often, invest in a specially formulated braid spray to soften your hair and soothe your scalp. You can pick up these sprays at salons and stores that sell specialty beauty products. Spritz the braid spray on your scalp to prevent itching and lubricate your braids, which will soften and loosen them.  Look for soothing sprays made with aloe vera, tea tree oil, sulfur, or lavender oil. Use this spray when you're getting ready in the morning and throughout the day as needed to reduce tension caused by tight braids. While you have braids in, it's important to do daily scalp massages with oil. Use 1 tbsp (14.8 mL) of a pure, natural oil like avocado, castor, coconut, jojoba, or almond oil. Apply the oil to your scalp, then massage it in with your fingers using gentle, circular motions. Do this for 1 to 2 minutes each day. Try adding a few drops of essential oil to the oil you choose to scent and refresh your scalp. Peppermint essential oil can help with scalp itchiness, so consider using that for your daily scalp massages.

Use a body scrub the morning before you want to cover up your stretch marks. Try a body scrub made with caffeine. This may make your skin appear tighter and smoother. Try a leg and body cover up cream. There are a number of cover ups on the market that will cover up stretch marks and other lines that detract from healthy-looking skin. No one has the exact same skin, so you may have to try a few products to see which is best for you.  Choose a color that will match your skin tone. Remember that it may be lighter or darker than your face makeup. Choose a body cover up that includes sunscreen if you are regularly exposed to sunlight. Sunburns reduce the elasticity of your skin and make stretch marks more noticeable. If you don’t have access to leg and body cover up, use a primer moisturizer or a waterproof concealer. Choose a concealer with green undertones to cover up red marks. Dip a flat foundation brush into the cover up product. Dab it gently onto the areas with stretch marks. Aim to use a very light layer of makeup. Assess the coverage that you get with a single layer. Layer the makeup in thin coats until you achieve the desired effect. It will quickly be obvious to you if it is working.  If you are going to wear a swimsuit, put it on before you apply makeup. Use a powder brush to apply setting powder. Leave the powder a few minutes before changing into a short skirt or shorts. A spray-on makeup fixative will also work to set the cover up or concealer.

Research your town or city's anti-barking laws. Call the relevant authority to report a noise complaint. Call animal control to report abuse. Get other neighbors to file the same complaint. Sue the dog owner in small claims court.

Whether you are dealing with your own parents, a spouse's parents, or the parents of one of your students, you may at some point be given unsolicited advice. If this happens, it's important to restrain your frustration and refrain from getting angry.   If you are getting unwanted advice from a spouse's parents, talk to your spouse. It's best if your spouse addresses his or her own parents, rather than you telling them to stop.  Remember that unsolicited advice is, at heart, an effort at showing concern. If you're getting unwanted advice from your parents or from a student's parents, you may need to communicate (calmly) that you feel frustrated by the constant advice.   Politely tell the parent that you understand he means well, but that constantly giving unsolicited advice makes you feel threatened in some ways.  Bring the subject up when you're both calm and when you both have time to sit and talk. Once you've addressed the unsolicited advice you've been getting, you'll need to make your request for the advice to stop.  Ask the parent to trust you and respect you enough to make your own decisions. Let him know that you share his concerns and will work toward the same goals, but that you need the freedom to do it in your own way.

TL;DR in English: Be patient with unsolicited advice. Talk calmly with the person giving advice. Ask for trust and respect.

Look online at your town or city's codes, by-laws or dog legislation. There may be a code against unruly pets or incessant barking at night; many places have legislation or regulations in place that deals specifically with dogs and/or noise. There might also be a code covering ignoring requests from neighbors.   Often neighborhood or civil dispute centers produce small briefs on dog issues, as they're rather commonplace complaints. See if a precedent has already been set in your neighborhood. You may want to share your findings with your neighbor to give him or her one last chance to change before you call the authorities. If you're pretty sure it won't work, move straight to the next step. Find out what town hall/council/municipal office or other relevant authority to call so you can file a report on your neighbors for a noise complaint.The authorities will talk to the dog owner and assess the situation. They will usually inform you of the outcome. If nothing changes, call again a few days later.   You might want to ask if anonymity is an option when you file the report. In some cases, this may not be an issue for you, especially if it's plain-as-day that you're the one pointing the finger thanks to previous attempts. However, if you have various upset neighbors, maintaining anonymity may be useful to prevent retaliation of any sort. Some jurisdictions will act on anonymous complaints, while others require your name and address but won't reveal this to the neighbor complained about. Check the public or private status of making a complaint before making it. If you believe the barking is a result of neglect or another form of abuse, you have the right to call animal control. If the dog is being severely abused it will be confiscated from the owner, but in most cases, animal control won't take the dog away. Instead, they'll come to assess the situation and try to educate the owners as to how to properly care for the dog.   If the dog is left outside during extreme heat or cold, this would be considered a good...

To soften the look, apply the lipstick to your finger and then lightly tap your fingertip against your lips to create a stain. Be careful when you’re applying the lipstick near the edge of your lips. It’s difficult to be precise with your fingertip, so you may want to use a matching lip liner and only tap the lipstick on the center of your lips. You’ll get the richest, most opaque berry color if you apply the lipstick directly from the tube. Smooth it over your lips, taking care around the edges to prevent the lipstick from bleeding outside your lip line. If you feel like you can’t be precise enough with the lipstick bullet, you can use a lip brush to apply it. The lipstick won’t be as opaque, but you’ll still get rich color and more precision. Your berry lipstick will last longer if you apply multiple layers. However, you don’t want to apply too much lipstick and have it bleed outside your lip line. Before applying a second layer, use a tissue to blot your lips and remove any excess lipstick. If you have oil blotting papers, which are typically used to blot oil away from the face without disturbing your makeup, you can use those to blot your lips. They’ll remove the excess emollient left behind by the lipstick without removing any of the pigment. After you’ve blotted your lips, apply a second layer of lipstick. Be just as precise as you were with the first layer so your lipstick appears neat and even. If you apply the first layer of lipstick directly from the tube, you can switch to a finger or a brush for the second. That’s because that first layer will provide a rich base so the color will look opaque.

TL;DR in English: Use your finger for a light stain. Apply the lipstick from the tube for opaque color. Blot your lips. Put on a second layer of lipstick.

This will prevent bubbles from forming. It may take several tries before you learn to fill the mold to the right level. You must let the plastic cool before removing it from the mold, or it won’t form correctly. Carefully pop the lure out of the mold  by turning it upside down and pressing on the bottom of the mold. Be sure to lay the molded plastic out flat, as it will set in the position in which you lay it out. If the lure does set in a crooked position, you can melt it down and re-pour it. First, transfer the soft plastic lure to a cookie sheet or baking pan. Trim the excess with a craft knife, scissors, or a pizza cutter. As you trim the excess, gather it together. You can melt it down and add it to your next soft plastic lure, or you can add the shavings at the very end to add highlights to lures of a contrasting color.

TL;DR in English: Pour the colored plastic into your mold slowly, filling it. Wait 10 to 15 minutes for the plastic in the mold to cool. Remove the plastic lure from the mold. Place the plastic lure on a paper towel or old newsprint to cool overnight. Trim off any excess plastic.

Fill a coupe, martini glass, or any short cocktail glass with ice and set it to the side. If you want to chill the glass farther in advance, put the empty glass into the freezer and leave it to chill for at least 15 minutes. If you plan on serving the Manhattan on ice, use a short glass instead of a coupe. Try to use ice cubes instead of crushed ice, since crushed ice will melt too quickly. Keep in mind that you want to add the ice to the shaker or mixing glass just before you're ready to stir and serve the cocktail. If you put the ice into the shaker or glass before pouring in the bitters, rye, and vermouth, you won't be able to control how much the ice dilutes the cocktail. Spear a cocktail cherry, such as a maraschino or luxcardo, onto a cocktail pick and place it directly in the drink. Serve the Manhattan right away so it stays cold.

TL;DR in English: Chill a cocktail glass while you prepare the drink. Fill the cocktail shaker or mixing glass with ice. Garnish the drink with a cocktail cherry.

If you want your team to be motivated, then you have to explain the positive outcomes of achieving the objective. By incorporating this team motivating step, you are putting the control over their future compensation or other rewards into their own hands. Your team should see how their success would benefit not only the company, but also each individual team member. If you really want to motivate them, then you have to make your goals as concrete as possible so they can feel a tangible reward. For example, saying "We have to work harder so the company looks better" won't motivate employees as much as saying, "If we improve our sales by 10%, then we'll make enough revenue to give out Christmas bonuses this year." Build a sense of curiosity within your team members' mindsets so that that they are interested enough to want to achieve the goals you expect. By doing this, your team members will want to learn more. This can be achieved if you understand what excites or interests your team members. Get to know what matters most to the members as a team and as individuals. If you keep things interesting and exciting by mentioning concrete goals, changes, and improvements, they will want to keep working. Don't just tell your team members what to do. Keep them interested and up-to-date on as much of the company process as you can so that they care about what's happening and have questions about the process. Know what your team is capable of and set a goal that they can actually reach. It's good to be ambitious when setting goals, but if you make them so challenging that your team is destined to fail, then everyone will only feel discouraged. Establish a realistic goal and provide a tool that shows their progress as they get closer to attaining that goal. Setting micro-goals along the way is also a great way to ensure success, so your team doesn't feel like it's all or nothing. For example, if you have a project that needs completing, create a chart that breaks that project into smaller goals so that, as they achieve...

When it comes to dressing during pregnancy, comfort and style are key. What feels right in week 9 may feel downright wrong by week 14.  What perfectly flatters your curves during the second trimester may become rather indecent by the tail end of your pregnancy. Buy the right size for your changing body. Do not buy larger clothes then you need unless you like how they look. Purchase clothing designed for maternity wear when you start to show if you wish. This clothing will be built for greater comfort, and it’s usually a better idea than purchasing regular clothing in bigger sizes. If cost is an issue, check thrift stores. You can usually wear regular clothes for the first three months. Avoid the temptation to just buy much larger clothes unless you want to. The problem with just buying larger clothes is it can make you look, well, larger. Maternity clothes will be fitted in the right places while allowing room for the bump, so they can help you retain a sense of shape. Different people carry their babies different ways. Some people have high pregnancies, for example, and some people carry the baby lower.  For those carrying their babies low, clothing that’s soft on the waistline will be more comfortable. Shirts cut below the bump can look attractive. If you’re carrying high, you can try to create a line between the breasts and bump by adding high belts and ties. Don’t give up. Just because you’re pregnant, doesn’t mean you can’t retain your typical style. You don’t always have to go for the sweatpants, either. In the first trimester, the challenge for many is to keep the pregnancy under wraps. Many people don't want to divulge their growing secret until at least the second trimester. Thus, you can usually stick to non-maternity clothing for the first three months.  What to do: Go into your closet and put aside anything that feels too tight or clingy. Stick with silhouettes that flow over belly, hips, and thighs that can camouflage the few pounds you may gain in the first months. Wear soft knits, A-line...

TL;DR in English: Dress differently depending on pregnancy stage. Know your body type and shape. Dress for the first trimester. Dress for the second trimester. Dress for the final trimester. Consider buying one of those stretchy bands.

Learn about tardigrades. Look for a moist tardigrade habitat. Collect a sample of the moss or lichen with tweezers.

Nearly all modern computers have the sound card built-in to the motherboard. You can double-check that you have a sound card built-in by looking for speaker jacks on the back of the computer. Sound cards are really only necessary for audiophiles and recording studio computers, or for very old computers that don't have built-in sound. This will allow you to move your computer to a place that allows you to easily access it. Place the computer on its side on a table, with the ports on the back closest to the table. The ports are connected to the motherboard, so having them closest to the table will ensure that you can get to the motherboard when the case is open. Avoid laying the computer on carpet. Most newer cases have thumbscrews, but you may need a Phillips-head screwdriver. The screws run down the back of the computer. Remove the panel on the opposite side of the motherboard and set it aside. You should always ground yourself when working inside your computer. You can use an electrostatic wrist strap or touch a metal water tap to discharge any electrostatic buildup. If you don't ground yourself, you run the risk of damaging your components with electrostatic discharge. Since your computer is open, you should take this opportunity to clean out the dust that has built up inside the case. Too much dust can lead to overheating, which can lead to your components failing. Use compressed air to remove as much dust and debris as possible. Make sure to get in all of the nooks and crannies.

TL;DR in English: Ensure that you need a sound card. Power down your computer and remove all the cables. Remove the side panel on your computer. Ground yourself. Clean out any dust.

These critters may be microscopic, but they are very cool! Tardigrades, also called water bears, are some of the most amazing animals on Earth, and live just about everywhere you can imagine. They can survive:  Temperatures as low as -200 °C (-328 °F) and as high as 151 °C (304 °F) Freezing in a block of ice Lack of oxygen for days, possibly months Lack of water for decades Levels of X-ray radiation 1,000 times the lethal human dose Many noxious chemicals Boiling alcohol Low pressure of a vacuum, like that of space Extreme pressure, up to six times greater than found at the deepest part of the ocean Note that they can only survive these conditions in cryptobiosis. If you exposed a living tardigrade to these conditions, it would die instantly. Many tardigrades are aquatic, but the easiest place for humans to find them is in damp moss, lichen, or leaf litter. Search in forests, around ponds, or even in your backyard. Your best bet is to look in damp places, where tardigrades are active. You can get a sample of dry habitat if nothing else is available, since it may contain tardigrades in an extreme hibernation state (cryptobiosis), waiting for water to rejuvenate them. Put the sample in a paper bag or envelope so it can dry out a little. (A plastic bag will trap the water and encourage mold to grow, which will block your view of the animals.)  You can take samples of several different kinds of moss, lichen, or leaf litter to see whether tardigrades like one more than another. Soft lichen is more likely to have tardigrades than hard, crusty lichen. You can even find water bears in the powdery lichen that grows on rocks and brick walls.

Memorize how to say "Where is the Bathroom? Try these translations depending on your location in Africa:

There are many different types of traps that vary in terms of if and how they kill what they trap. Choose the trap that you like best, and make sure to place a highly desired piece of food properly in the trap to successfully attract the mouse or rat.  Try a snap trap. These traps are set off by the removal of the bait. When the rodent attempts to take the snack that is carefully placed in the trap, the mechanism snaps a wire down and kills it nearly instantly by snapping the rodent’s neck. To catch but not kill, choose a cage trap. When the mouse or rat steps on the pan located inside the trap, the treadle is tripped and the door closes. This traps the rodent without killing it. Avoid a sticky trap. This kind of trap has a special glue on it that sticks permanently to the rodent’s feet. This is one of the least humane options because the trapped mouse or rat starves to death slowly. There are many different types of rodenticide, so pick the right one by assessing the environmental conditions and the severity of the infestation. Poison is often delivered to mice and rats via bait station. These “stations” are pellets packaged in a paper or cellophane material. After gnawing through the packaging and ingesting the pellets, the rodent dies. Contact a professional rodent exterminator if you’ve tried a few different methods and you’re still having problems, or if you aren’t comfortable trapping or killing mice and rats. Ask around for recommendations, call the exterminator, and ask for a quote. Also, be sure to ask if the professional is licensed by the state, so that you know whether or not their business is legitimate. Cats and sometimes even dogs have a natural “killer instinct” and will hunt and kill rats and mice in their living space. Getting a new pet may take care of decreasing the rodent population in and around your home.

TL;DR in English: Set up a trap with bait. Poison the rodent. Hire an exterminator. Rely on a pet.

In a small saucepan, stir together 1 cup (240 milliliters) of water and 1 cup (225 grams) of sugar. Add 1 tablespoon of grated lime zest, if desired, for extra flavor. Bring the sugar-water to a boil, then let it simmer for 3 minutes. Strain the mixture through a fine, mesh sieve into a pitcher and let it cool. Juice the limes. Once the syrup has completely cooled, add the lime juice and water. Give the limeade a taste, and make any necessary adjustments. Serve the limeade.

Some people like to use notebooks for diaries. Others prefer to use computers to write instead. Both methods are just fine, so choose the one you are most comfortable with.  If you want to use a computer to write, you can use a text document to write or you can use an online journaling website or diary app. If you want to use a physical diary, choose one that’s easy for you to write in. Make sure it's a good size for you and get one with lined paper inside. If you can't decide if you want to use a computer or write in a notebook, go with the one that makes you feel the  most creative. Keep your diary close to you if possible. If it’s always within reach, you’re more likely to use it. Start by writing details you want to remember and even random thoughts as they strike you in your diary.  If you’re using a notebook, make sure you choose one that easily fits into your backpack or purse. Keep your diary safe. Diaries are very private so if you carry it with you, keep an eye on it.

That way you know exactly when things happened. Make putting down the date the first thing you do when writing a diary entry so you won't forget. Put aside time for writing first thing in the morning or right before you go to bed and hold yourself to it. If you’re very busy, even 10 minutes every day will help to get you in the habit of writing in your diary.  Choose a time when you know you won’t be interrupted by friends or family members. Write to pass the time when you're riding in a car or on a bus.These trips are a good opportunity to jot down your thoughts and ideas. Don’t feel that you have to write long paragraphs and perfect sentences in your diary, or even sentences at all.  If it’s easier for you to get down short phrases or bulletpoints, go with that.

You will be boiling these together to prepare simple syrup. This extra step will give you a smoother limeade, and prevent those annoying grains of un-dissolved sugar from appearing at the bottom. For a less-sweet limeade, use ¾ cups (170 grams) of sugar. This is not essential to the recipe, but it will give your limeade a more complex flavor. You will need about 1 lime to do this. It might be a good idea to zest the limes before you cut and juice it. For a twist, swap out the lime zest for 2 tablespoons of minced, fresh ginger. While the mixture is coming to a boil, be sure to stir it well so that the sugar dissolves. If you omitted the lime zest or grated ginger, then you can simply pour the simple syrup into the pitcher. Make sure that the pitcher is large enough to hold the rest of your ingredients. Roll the limes across the counter while pressing down on them with your palm. Slice them in half, then juice them. You will need 1 cup (240 milliliters) of lime juice. Stir everything well with a long-handled spoon until the simple syrup, lime juice, and water are completely combined. You should not see any simple syrup gathered at the bottom of the pitcher. Everyone has different tastes, so you may need to adjust the limeade to suit yours. If the limeade is too sweet for you, add a little bit more lime juice. If it is too strong, then add some more water. If it is too sour, then add some more sugar. Be sure to stir the limeade well after each addition that you make. You can garnish it with some lime slices or fresh mint leaves for a fancier touch. It will taste even better with ice, but instead of adding ice straight into the pitcher, consider putting the ice into the glasses instead. If you add ice into the pitcher, the ice will dilute the limeade as it melts.

Salmonella infection is usually caused by eating raw or undercooked eggs or meat products that are contaminated with the bacteria. You may feel symptoms immediately or it may take up to 2 days, followed by symptoms that can usually be classified as gastroenteritis, an inflammation of the stomach or intestines. The most common symptoms of a salmonella infection are the following:   Persistent vomiting and diarrhea Nausea Chills Fever Headache Blood in the stool Very hot temperature Cold sweats Head cold Runny nose While salmonella usually doesn't pose a high health risk, individuals with compromised immune systems, such as people with AIDS, sickle cell disease or inflammatory bowel diseases, are at an increased risk of complications from salmonella poisoning. Children and the elderly are also more likely to experience serious complications. If the symptoms don't seem to be going away, and the person experiencing them is in a higher-risk group, it's advisable to see a doctor as soon as possible. Immediate medical attention should also be sought if you or the person you're concerned about experiences the following:    Dehydration, leading to decreased urine output, decreased tear production, dry mouth, and sunken eyes. If you are losing more fluids (through vomiting or diarrhea) than you’re taking in, see your doctor. Signs of a rare, advanced condition known as bacteremia, a condition in which salmonella enters the bloodstream and infects body tissues in the brain, spinal cord, heart, or bone marrow. A sudden high fever, chills, rapid heart rate, and an appearance of serious illness are signs that this may be occurring. Most salmonella can be caught early before this occurs. The doctor will assess your symptoms and, in most cases, advise getting plenty of fluids and resting until the symptoms pass, since they usually go away on their own. If the doctor determines a test is necessary, a stool sample will be tested to determine whether it contains salmonella.   The doctor may also decide to test a blood sample to...

How competent is the management running the company? More importantly, how focused are they toward the company, customers, investors, and employees? In this age of rampant corporate greed, it's always a great idea to research the management of any company you're thinking of investing in. Newspaper and magazine articles are good places to get this information. This doesn't just mean that management has provided good financial results recently. Rather, look for indications of other important qualities like responsiveness, adaptability, capacity for innovation, and organizational ability. A good leader can successfully turn around a company that many consider to be a lost cause. Watch the news and financial reports for changes in management positions, especially CEOs. If you believe in the new CEO of a company, based on your research, you may choose to invest in that company. Here, you're essentially putting your faith in the person, not the company. Even a great company can be overvalued. Learn to interpret financial statements and pick stocks with fundamental analysis to find companies the market has overvalued. Know that these companies may be some of the most buzzed-about and invested in companies around, but they are still overvalued and may experience drastic declines in price once their day in the spotlight is over.   One way to determine if a stock is overpriced is to examine its price-earnings-ratio. The price to earnings ratio can usually be found in the company's stock summary on financial websites. Generally, PE ratios are between 20-25, but this varies by industry.  To evaluate a company's PE ratio, search online for the average PE ratio in the company's industry. If the P/E ratio is over the industry average, the company could be overpriced in view of its earnings. Undervalued stocks are those that are trading at a lower value than their financial information would indicate. These may be companies that have only started to do well recently. In these cases, the market has not yet caught up with...
