Convert your mixed fractions into improper fractions. Find the common denominator. Multiply your numerators and denominators to get your like fraction. Add or subtract your fractions. Convert your answer back into a mixed fraction.

Potting mix, which is often a mixture of peat moss, perlite, and vermiculite, will generally yield better results for potted plants because of its superior drainage. If your container doesn't have drainage holes, you can drill 3-4 of them into the bottom of the container. You can also find soil specifically for cuttings at most home improvement stores. This is to make sure the cuttings have water available immediately once they are in their container. Water until the soil is moist, but not soaked. Creating a hole before you insert your cutting ensures your cutting won't be bent or snapped when it's inserted into the soil. You can also use a knitting needle or your own finger if you don't have a pencil or a chopstick. Ensure that the leaves are not buried, and that the plant is stable enough to stand upright. It's best to plant just below a leaf break, where two leaves shoot off in opposite directions. You can plant several cuttings in a single container, but be careful not to overcrowd the pot. For a medium-sized container about 8 inches (20 cm) across, 5-6 cuttings will fill the pot with enough room to grow. Place the pot with your cuttings into a large, clear plastic bag, secure the bag with a rubber band. Place the pot away from the window in an area that gets plenty of sunlight, so that moisture becomes trapped in the bag for the plants to use for photosynthesis. Be sure to cut small holes or leave part of the bag outside of the rubber band to allow air to flow. Make sure the soil in the container is moist, but not soaked, at all times. Don't let the soil dry out. Regularly check the bottom of the container for any roots. If any of them begin to look unhealthy, remove them from the container. Check the drainage holes at the bottom of the container for visible roots once per week. Once the cuttings are growing rapidly or roots appear at the bottom of the container, you can dig up and transplant each cutting to separate containers. When transplanting, be gentle when lifting the plant from the container,...

TL;DR in English: Fill a drainable container with potting soil. Water the soil in the container before you plant the cuttings. Use a pencil or a chopstick to make holes in the soil. Insert cuttings into their individual holes. Cover the container with a plastic bag to seal in moisture. Water and monitor your cuttings. Transplant cuttings to individual containers when roots become visible.

A mixed fraction is when you have a whole number and a fraction, like in the above example (1 5/12). Meanwhile, an improper fraction is one where the numerator (the top number) is bigger than the denominator (the bottom number). That's also seen in the above step, with 17/12. For the example for this section, let's work with 13/12 and 17/8. Remember the three ways you can find the LCD? By either writing out the multiples, using prime factorization, or by multiplying the denominators. Let's figure out the multiples of our example, 12 and 8. What's the smallest number these two go into? 24. 8, 16, 24 and 12, 24 – bingo! Both denominators now need to be turned into 24. How do you get 12 to 24? Multiply it by 2. 8 to 24? Multiply it by three. But don't forget – you need to multiply the numerators, too! So 13 x 2/12 x 2 = 26/24. And 17 x 3/8 x 3 = 51/24. We're well on our way to solving the problem! Now that you have the same denominator, you can add these two numbers together with ease. Remember, leave the denominator alone! 26/24 + 51/24 = 77/24. There's your one fraction! That top number is mighty big, though.... Having such a large number on top is a little weird – you can't quite tell the size of your fraction. All you have to do is put the denominator into the numerator until in can't be repeated again and then see what you have leftover. For this example, 24 goes into 77 three times. That is, 24 x 3 = 72. But there's 5 leftover! So what's your final answer? 3 5/24. That's it!

Because Morgellon's is not well understood, you may benefit from the opinions of doctors from different fields. It is important that all of the doctors are thorough in their examinations and that they listen to you and take your symptoms seriously. You may want to consider talking to:  Your general practitioner A dermatologist A psychologist or psychiatrist A specialist in Lyme disease and other tick-borne illnesses. You can find doctors who are knowledgeable about Lyme disease by contacting the Lyme Disease Association, International Lyme and Associated Diseases Society, the Tick Borne Disease Alliance, or local Lyme support groups. Specialists in any other body systems that are affected. For example, if you suffer from vision or hearing problems, add an eye doctor or hearing specialist to your team. A healthy diet will help your body repair and heal any wounds you may have. It will also boost your immune system to help you fight any infections that may be present. The Morgellon's Foundation in the UK recommends:  Supplying your body with sufficient energy by choosing complex over simple carbohydrates. Complex carbohydrates take longer to digest and provide energy for longer. They include whole-grain breads, brown rice, oats, buckwheat, couscous and whole-wheat pastas. Limit your intake of processed sugars including cookies, cakes, and candies. Get a rich array of vitamins and minerals by eating lots of diverse fruits and vegetables. The vitamins and minerals support important physiological processes in your body, including those necessary for healing. Excellent sources include dark green leafy vegetables like spinach and salads topped with different fruits and vegetables such as tomatoes, cucumber, carrots, apples, orange slices, or berries. Get protein from healthy sources. Eat lean meats like poultry and fish. If you eat red meat, trim the fat off. Vegetarians can get protein from chickpeas and beans.

Do more than just jog. Run "fartleks. Do intervals on the track. Run hills.

Place the butter, white sugar, and brown sugar in a large bowl. Using an electric mixer, beat the ingredients until the mixture is fully combined and becomes light and fluffy. This should take about 3 or 4 minutes. Using softened butter should help the process along. If your butter is cold, you can  soften it by microwaving it for about 15 seconds. Keep the mixer running and beat the batter until the eggs and vanilla are thoroughly incorporated. In a separate bowl, stir together the flour, salt, cinnamon, baking soda and oatmeal until the ingredients are completed mixed. Pour 1/3 of the dry mixture into the bowl with the wet ingredients and mix on low (or stir by hand) until blended. Do the same with the next 1/3 of the bowl, and finish by mixing in the last 1/3. Don't mix the batter on high - do it slowly! This way you can make sure the cookies will come out light and delicious, rather than tough. Last but not least, stir in the 1 1/2 cups of raisins - again, make sure not to overmix. Use a cookie scoop, a small measuring cup or a tablespoon to scoop out the cookies onto a nonstick cookie sheet. Space them so that there are 2 inches (5.1 cm) in between each cookie, since they'll spread as they bake. You'll end up with about 2 dozen cookies, so you may need to bake them using two separate sheets or one batch at a time.  If you don't have a nonstick cookie sheet, grease the cookie sheet before scooping. You can also line your cookie sheet with parchment paper. Make the cookies bigger if you'd like! Use a 1/2 cup measuring cup to scoop out giant oatmeal cookies that will be soft in the middle and crispy around the edges. Place them in the preheated oven and bake for 10 - 12 minutes, until they're brown around the edges. Remove them from the oven and allow them to cool.

TL;DR in English: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Beat the butter and sugars. Add the eggs and vanilla. Mix the dry ingredients. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Stir in the raisins. Scoop out the cookies. Bake the cookies.

Once you are running comfortably for prolonged periods, continue using at least one hard run per week to increase your mileage and endurance. At the same time, start designating at least one other hard day to challenge your body in new ways each week. Encourage runner's high by taxing your body with less familiar forms of stress.  Runner’s high usually occurs when the body experiences prolonged stress. The more endurance you build, the less likely this will happen from basic distance runs, because your body's used to it Seguing from base training to a variety of high-intensity workouts will keep your body from falling into a steady low-challenge routine. Focus on endurance training for at least one month before incorporating high-intensity workouts into your schedule. " These involve alternating between jogging and running at a much faster pace within one run. Start small by alternating between sprinting and jogging every two minutes. From there, try different combinations. Remember: the key to runner's high is placing new stresses on your body, so running different fartleks each time is a great way to increase your chances. For example:  On your next fartlek, you can increase both the jogging and sprinting intervals by equal amounts throughout one run. Jog for two minutes, sprint for two minutes, then jog for three and sprint three, followed by four jogging, then four sprinting, and so on. The next time, you can increase the sprinting interval and keep the jogging the same. Jog for two minutes, sprint for two. Jog for another two, then sprint for three. Jog for two, sprint for four, and etc. Then you can push your body further by running a faster pace for your "jogging" interval on your next fartlek. Similar to fartleks, challenge yourself by running a consistent faster-than-normal pace for a set distance, followed by walking or jogging for another set distance, and then repeating. As always, to achieve runner's high, avoid routine and doing the exact same thing each week. Keep challenging your body with the...

The doctor will not put the electrodes directly onto your skin.

Tell your doctor about all medicines you are taking. Allow the doctor to prepare you. Wait while the doctor prepares the electrodes. Watch the doctor place the chest electrodes. Observe as the doctor places electrodes on your limbs. Wait while the EKG runs. Allow the doctor to remove the electrodes.

Traveling in groups is more social, cuts down on gas, and is better for your carbon footprint (which is the sum of all greenhouse gases created and released by your activities). Using public transit, like buses and trains cuts down on the gas it takes to get somewhere and is cheaper and better for the environment than cars. It takes a lot of fuel to fly or drive long distances, and that fuel creates greenhouses gases. Donate some money to a company that offsets those emissions. When you donate to a group that tries to offset carbon emissions, they use that money to fund projects that prevent that same emission elsewhere. That could be as simple as planting a new tree, or funding projects to reduce someone else’s carbon footprint.

TL;DR in English: Carpool to holiday events. Take the bus or train whenever you can. Donate to offset your carbon footprint if you travel.

This is important because some medicines change the rate at which your heart beats and could affect the results. This includes over-the-counter medications and herbal supplements. Do not drink cold water right before the test. You need to stay warm so that you do not shiver. You may be asked to take off your shirt or put on a hospital gown. This will make it easier for the doctor to put the electrodes directly onto your skin.  If your skin is dirty, the doctor may clean and wipe the areas where the electrodes will go. If you have hair on your chest, arms, or legs where the doctor wants to put the leads (electrodes), you may be shaved first. This will help the leads stick correctly. The 12 lead EKG uses 10 electrodes. They will be put directly onto your skin. They may feel slightly cold, but they will not hurt. The electrodes measure your body’s electricity. They do not put electricity into your body. The doctor may use gel, spray, or tape to fix them in place and create a good connection. There will be six chest electrodes which must be placed as follows:  Electrode 1 will go to the right of the sternum in the fourth intercostal space. The intercostal space is the space between the ribs. Electrode 2 will go to the left of the sternum in the fourth intercostal space. Electrode 3 will be in between electrodes 2 and 4. Electrode 4 will go on midclavicular line in the fifth intercostal space. The midclavicular line is a vertical line that goes through the middle of the collarbone. Electrode 5 is horizontally level with electrode 4 in the anterior axillary line. The anterior axillary line runs down your body from the collarbone, 3/4ths of the distance from the middle of your collarbone to the end. Electrode 6 is horizontally level with electrode 4 in the mid-axillary line. The midaxillary line runs down your side from your armpit to your waist. The other four electrodes will go on your arms and legs and do not have to be placed as precisely. The doctor will likely avoid areas with a lot of hair, protruding bones,...

Be efficient. Take time to relax. Spend after saving. Build a network.

Line the baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicon sheet.  Keep in a single layer; don't overlap. Dip a pastry brush into the bowl and brush both sides of each baguette slice. You'll need to keep re-dipping in the olive oil. This step is optional but if liked, you can sprinkle the top of each piece with salt and pepper or perhaps with a spice such as paprika or sumac. Bake for 5-6 minutes, then remove and turn over the slices. Return to the oven and bake for another 5-6 minutes or until golden. Place on a cooling rack to cool completely. If storing, keep in an airtight container. These will keep for weeks if the container remains airtight.

TL;DR in English: Preheat the oven to 180ºC/350ºF. Slice the baguette into slices about 5-7mm in thickness. Arrange the slices on a baking tray. Pour the olive oil into a small bowl. Season to taste. Place the baking sheet into the oven. Remove from the oven. Serve when cool.

Remember that the quality of work you put into an hour is more important than the number of hours you put into the work. The quality AND quantity of your work matter. Sometimes working for a long time on something gives you the illusion that you are getting a lot done when really you haven’t had a productive hour. Be open and honest with yourself about the quality of your work. If you need help, ask for it. Other people might be able to give you better tips on how to do something efficiently and effectively. Working smarter means taking small breaks while you work and also making a point to schedule relaxing activities into your day. This improves your creativity and productivity and lowers your stress levels.  One popular study recommends working for 52 minutes and taking a 17-minute break to improve your productivity.  Make it a point to do things that you find relaxing, such as yoga, meditation, painting or reading. Experiment with different activities to see which best suits you. What is relaxing to you may not be relaxing to someone else. It’s always smart to save money for the future now. Set aside an amount that you will save every month. Make a list of special circumstances or emergencies under which you will use this money. If you are still studying, consider getting a part-time job. This will teach you the value of money and time, and instill responsibility and discipline in you. Be kind to people now. Build a network of people you can rely on for advice and support in the future. This includes your friends, people you work with who are higher in the command chain than you are, your peers and your mentors and teachers. Look to those with more experience than you for advice on how to work towards the future you dream of. Even if your idea is something that they don’t have personal experience of, they can still give you solid advice that applies to you.

If you're using a graphical user interface (GUI), you can usually do this by clicking the terminal icon or by pressing Ctrl+Alt+T. After typing that command at the prompt, press ↵ Enter or ⏎ Return to run it. After verifying your root password, the package manager will update to include the latest software sources. If you already know the exact name of the package you want to install, skip to the next step. Otherwise, run apt-cache search softwareName (with softwareName being the name of your software) at the prompt.  This can sometimes print out a lot of options, of which many are irrelevant. Be patient and read the description of every package to determine which one you want to install. If you're unsure, you can also use apt show packageName, with packageName being the name of any listed package, to get a longer description of what the package is. If you're unsure what your software is called, you might try searching for a word that describes what the package does. For example, typing apt-cache search paint will print the package names of many painting programs, including GIMP and Krita. Replace packageName with the actual package name. For example, if you want to install the package dillo (that's a web browser), you would type sudo apt-get install dillo.  If additional dependencies are required for the package to install, follow the on-screen instructions to choose whether to install them now. To remove an installed package, use sudo apt-get remove packageName.

Have a plan in place to get your brand name in as many stores and in front of as many people as possible. Depending on the product or service you’re offering, you might want to consider taking out ads online, in newspapers, in magazines, and wherever you might find new customers.  Apply your branding, including your visual brand and brand messages, to all of your materials—from packaging, signage, and stationery, to your website and marketing materials. Don’t be shy about boldly branding your products and displaying them in as many venues as possible. You want your brand to be everywhere people look. Advertise your brand in unexpected places. Radio advertisements, employee uniforms, and freebies with logos (such as tissues or pens) are all relatively inexpensive ways to promote your brand. See if you can get publicity from a local newspaper, TV station or blog who will review your product or service. Social media is one of the best ways to build a brand these days. Get basic social media accounts and update them regularly with pictures, deals, and other information about your company. Find things that are related and appeal to your customers and give them the chance to interact.  For example, if you're a travel company, post a picture of a beautiful location with a message something like: "Counting down the weeks to summer vacation and some time to unwind! Where do you want to travel this year?" Do not become spam. Avoid constantly pushing your brand in an annoying way or without context or to people that have no interest. Stay out of your customer's recycle bins. Be real and conversational, not a metaphorical sleazy car salesman. This is the age of the Internet and social media, so having a website is central to building a brand. It's fine to base your business in the flesh and traditional media, but if you don't at least have a website, you'll be seen as old-fashioned and inaccessible. Hire a professional or use a template and get a nice looking website. This should, at a minimum, discuss what your brand is...

Solving the cube root of a number is going to look like solving a long division problem, with a few special differences. The first step is to set up the problem in the proper format.  Write down the number whose cube root you want to find. Write the digits in groups of three, using the decimal point as your starting place. For this example, you will find the cube root of 10. Write this as 10. 000 000. The extra 0s are to allow precision in the solution. Draw a cube root radical sign over the number. This serves the same purpose as the long division bar line. The only difference is the shape of the symbol. Place a decimal point above the bar line, directly above the decimal point in the original number. You will use these in the computations. These cubes are as follows:  13=1∗1∗1=1{\displaystyle 1^{3}=1*1*1=1} 23=2∗2∗2=8{\displaystyle 2^{3}=2*2*2=8} 33=3∗3∗3=27{\displaystyle 3^{3}=3*3*3=27} 43=4∗4∗4=64{\displaystyle 4^{3}=4*4*4=64} 53=5∗5∗5=125{\displaystyle 5^{3}=5*5*5=125} 63=6∗6∗6=216{\displaystyle 6^{3}=6*6*6=216} 73=7∗7∗7=343{\displaystyle 7^{3}=7*7*7=343} 83=8∗8∗8=512{\displaystyle 8^{3}=8*8*8=512} 93=9∗9∗9=729{\displaystyle 9^{3}=9*9*9=729} 103=10∗10∗10=1000{\displaystyle 10^{3}=10*10*10=1000} Select a number that, when cubed, gives the largest possible result less than the first set of three numbers.  In this example, the first set of three numbers is 10. Find the largest perfect cube that is less than 10. That number is 8, and its cube root is 2. Write the number 2 above the radical bar line, over the number 10. Write the value of 23{\displaystyle 2^{3}}, which is 8, underneath the number 10, draw a line and subtract, just as you would in long division. The result is a 2. After the subtraction, you have the first digit of your solution. You need to decide if this one digit is a precise enough result. In most cases, it will not be. You can check by cubing the single digit and decide if that is close enough to the result you wanted. Here, because 23{\displaystyle 2^{3}} is only 8, not very close to 10,...

Getting in touch with old friends, distant relatives, and people you went to school with can be a good stepping stone because you're reaching out, but you're not approaching complete strangers. Work on networking first on this group of people before moving on to people with whom you have a more tenuous connection. As a professional, or an aspiring professional, your time is important. Be discerning and selective — you owe it to yourself. Simply approach someone confidently, stick out your hand, and introduce yourself. It's not easy to do, but it's straightforward, and the more you do it, the easier it becomes.  Be confident to inspire confidence in you. Many people who regularly schmooze aren't the most naturally confident people in the world. They've learned to project confidence. This projection soon becomes reality. The "fake it till you make it" strategy really does work. Some people call this the "hostess mentality." You put others first and try to make them feel comfortable. This uncommon effort makes you feel powerful and, ultimately, puts you at ease. . An elevator pitch is a personal blurb that sums up the "professional you" and can be delivered quickly — for example, in the time it would take two people to share an elevator ride.

Do not use a vacuum cleaner to clean the vinyl flooring.

There are a few different kinds of cherries on the market these days, and using a particular type will influence the taste of your wine. Here are some things to consider:  Try black cherries or sweet cherries for a sweeter wine. Morello cherries work well for a dry wine. A dry wine is simply a wine that has no residual sugar, meaning it isn’t sweet. To make a dry wine, let your mixture ferment completely, allowing the yeast to consume all of the sugar. Here are some things to consider when making "dry" wine:  After about 2 weeks most of the sugar will have been consumed by the yeast and fermentation will slow, making it easier to keep track of the falling sugar level of your wine. Tracking the sugar level will give you an idea of how your fermentation has been progressing. You may wish to stop the fermentation early and leave a bit of residual sugar in your wine. The fermentation is considered done when you either reach your desired sugar level or go "dry" at 0° Brix on the wine scale.  A wine with 0.2% residual sugar contains two grams of sugar in a liter of wine. Dry wines are typically in the 0.2%-0.3% range, off-dry wines in the 1.0%-5.0% range, and sweet dessert wines are normally 5.0%-10%. There is no "correct" sugar level for your wine, it just comes down to your personal preference. You can give your wine an intriguing flavor by adding small amounts of oak during the fermenting process. Here are some things to consider:  Use oak powder. This way, you won't risk over-oaking your wine. The oak powder will also sink to the bottom of your crock during fermentation, making siphoning easier. When adding oak powder to a batch of homemade wine, you'll want to add anywhere from 4 to 20 grams per gallon, depending on the type of wine (white vs. red) and desired flavor. Generally speaking, for six U.S. gallons of wine you would add about 40 to 50 grams of oak powder for a white wine, or 70 to 85 grams of oak powder for a red wine.

TL;DR in English: Experiment with different types of cherries. Make a "dry" wine. Oak your wine!

Mop and rinse the damaged area with fresh, warm water if vacuuming or sweeping the area does not remove the dirt.     Consult the manufacturer of the vinyl flooring for further direction on cleaning products that are safe to use if neither of the vacuuming or mopping methods do not remove all the dirt. These products will help fill and seal any scrapes or cuts, preventing the lower layers of the vinyl flooring from deteriorating further.

When ceasing alcohol or tobacco, the body may experience withdrawal without continued use. Withdrawal symptoms from tobacco and alcohol can include: anxiety, depression, fatigue, headache, nausea, shaking, stomach cramps, and elevated heart rate. While tobacco withdrawal can be unpleasant on both body and emotions, alcohol withdrawal can be dangerous. Severity of alcohol withdrawal symptoms varies by how much you drink, for how long, and your condition of health. Some symptoms can start within hours after drinking, peak within days, and improve within the week.  Alcohol withdrawal can lead to symptoms which causes severe mental and neurological problems. This may include body tremors, agitation, restlessness, fear, hallucinations and seizures. Seek medical attention if you experience these symptoms. If you are a long-term and heavy drinker, consider a medically supervised detox. While no prescription medication exists to concurrently treat alcohol and nicotine together, interventions exist to treat alcohol dependence and nicotine addiction.  Prescription medication can be used to treat alcohol dependence, including use of naltrexone, acamprosate, and disulfiram. These medications can help with withdrawal symptoms and relapse.  Choose a method for nicotine withdrawal. While some people quit "cold turkey", others choose to taper off nicotine exposure in order to reduce withdrawal symptoms. Many options are available for nicotine replacement such as gum, a patch, nasal sprays and prescription medications (such as bupropion) while your body adjusts to lower levels of nicotine.

It’s always easiest to move bulbs when you know where they are, so gardeners usually try to transplant bulb plants when some of the plant is still visible above the ground.  After flowering, the plant will focus on drawing in nourishment to sustain it over the winter.  For this reason, you must avoid cutting green foliage as this deprives the plant of the ability to nourish itself and store energy from sunlight to see it through the winter. It’s always best to transplant bulbs in the fall after the foliage has withered away and is yellow.  You can also move bulbs in the springtime but remember never to cut or damage any green shoots. If you move them in the spring take especial care not to damage the growing roots at this time. The trick with digging up bulbs is to avoid damaging the main bulb and to preserve as much of the root structure as possible.  This can be pretty hard to do. Gentle handling is always necessary when moving bulbs from place to place. When you plant a bulb, you should always do so at a depth of several times the height of the bulb. So when it comes to digging them up, that will give you an idea of how deep you need to dig to avoid damaging the bulb with your spade.  Three times the height of the bulb is the usual depth for planting. Also, bulbs often wriggle deeper into the ground over time, which may add to the depth they were initially planted at. For example, larger bulbs such as tulips or daffodils will usually be planted to a depth of about 8 inches (20.3 cm). It’s best to assume they are at 12 inches (30.5 cm) depth to be on the safe side. Bulb plants reproduce by dividing the original ‘parent’ bulb into several ‘daughter’ bulbs, known as ‘offsets’. This happens over a period of years.  If you observe that your bulb has formed a clump of smaller bulbs, gently separate these with your fingers.  The new bulbs can be planted separately and is a good way of increasing your bulb stock. This will also help avoid damaging neighboring bulbs by pulling apart their roots. Bulbs are usually...

Wash the apples first, then peel them. After this, you can core them using an apple corer, and then cut them into quarters. If you don't own an apple corer, you can cut them into quarters first, then cut the core away with a knife. Put the apples into a large pot first, then add the apple cider. Turn the heat up to high, and let the cider come to a boil. Immediately reduce the heat to low, and let the apples and cider simmer for 20 minutes. Stir in the sugar and spices, then turn the heat back up to high. Let the mixture come to a boil. As soon as the cider starts to boil, reduce the heat to low, and let the apples simmer for 30 minutes.  For a twist, try 1½ cups (300 grams) of brown sugar and ½ cup (115 grams) of white sugar.  If you'd like the apple cider to be sweeter, you can add up to 4 cups (900 grams) of sugar. Once the apples are soft, take the pot off the stove, and let the mixture cool down a little. You can then mash the apples using a potato masher, or purée them in a blender or food processor. The longer you cook it, the thicker it will become. You don't want the apple butter to be too thick, however; the mixture should be reduced by about 40 to 50%. The apple butter may splatter. Consider keeping a splatter screen of sorts over the pot to keep your kitchen clean. Wipe the mouths of the jars with a clean towel, then put the lids on. Store the jars in the fridge.

TL;DR in English: Wash, peel, core, and quarter the apples. Put the apples and apple cider into a large pot, bring it to a boil, then simmer it over low heat for 20 minutes. Add the sugar and spices, return to a boil, then simmer over low heat for 30 minutes. Let the mixture cool for a bit, then mash or purée the apples. Return the mixture to the pot, and continue cooking it over low heat until it thickens, about 1 hour. Pour the apple butter into jars, leaving ¼ inch (0.64 centimeters) of space.

Try blue- or purple-shaded lipstick colors if you have cool undertones. Choose reds and orangey colors if you have warm undertones. Play with color if you have neutral tones.

Get in touch with yourself by writing down your thoughts and writing about events in your life. This introspection will be therapeutic and get you to be comfortable with yourself.  Write down anything and everything you want. You can't write anything that's wrong. Write the first thing that comes to your head. Write your most personal thoughts and ideas. Don't be self-conscious about what you write. You're the only one that will ever see it. Write about yourself. Get to know your thoughts and actions more intimately. Instead of going through life without thinking about what you do, be conscious of your actions and why you do them. If you don't like what you do and think, you'll learn that about yourself. You'll also find areas of yourself that you love! List things you like and things you don't like about yourself. For every entry, write a way to keep doing the positive or a way to improve the negative. One of the biggest challenges to being yourself is lingering negative thoughts. These negative thoughts are almost always baseless and self-destructive. Once you're aware of your negative thoughts you can overcome them. Work on replacing them with positive thoughts!  Write down you negative thoughts as they happen. Once they're written down, you can work on changing them. Analyze those negative thoughts. Why are you having them? Are they even true? Are there any counter-examples? Are they productive or destructive? Do you fixate on those thoughts? Answer these questions and more about every negative thought you have. Before long, you'll start to realize how absurd and counterproductive your negative thoughts are. Replace negative thoughts with positive ones. Instead of "I'm always left out of conversations," think "I had a great conversation earlier" or "I had all these interesting and funny things to say, but I chose not to." Instead of "Nobody thinks I'm clever" think of that one time you made a great pun and everybody cracked up. Make a habit of focusing on the positive. Laugh at yourself. Laughter really...

TL;DR in English: Keep a journal. Be conscious of your thoughts. Build positive relationships and learn about yourself through others. Get in touch with your younger self.

For example, choose bluish-red, magenta pink, or purplish-brown. Avoid oranges and colors that are too pale because they can wash you out.  If you have fair or light skin, look for raspberry, mocha, or nudes, especially.  If you have olive or tan skin, look for wine-colored shades or cranberry. If you have a dark or deep complexion, look for metallic shades in ruby red or a deep wine shade. Great options include corals, peaches, and bright reds.  If you have fair or light skin, try red with blue undertones (this will make your teeth look very white, too), coral, pale pink or peachy nudes.  If you have tan or medium skin, go for cherry red, rose, mauve, corals, or berry. Try tangerine, orange-red, copper, or bronze.  If you have a dark or deep complexion, look for browns, copper, bronze, purples, caramel, plumb, or wine-colored lipsticks. If you have neutral undertones, most colors will look good on you. Try to play up your complexion by wearing darker, contrasting colors if you have pale skin, corals if you have olive or tan skin, and berry colors if you have dark skin.

Perimeter is the sum total of all outer sides of any given shape, including irregular and compound shapes.  A standard rectangle has four sides. The two sides composing the length are equal to each other, and the two sides composing the width are equal to each other. Therefore, the perimeter is the sum of those four sides. A compound rectangle has at least six sides. Think of a capital “L” or “T” shape. The top “branch” can be separated into one rectangle and the bottom “bar” can be separated into another. The perimeter of this shape, however, does not rely on breaking up the compound rectangle into two separate rectangles. Instead, the perimeter is simply: P = s1 + s2 + s3 + s4 + s5 + s6. Each “s” represents a different side of your compound rectangle. In a standard educational math problem, the measurement of all sides should be provided.  This example uses the abbreviations L, W, l1, l2, w1, and w2. The uppercase L and W stand for the full lengths and widths of the shape. The lowercase ls and ws stand for the smaller lengths and widths. As such, the formula P = s1 + s2 + s3 + s4 + s5 + s6 equals P = L + W + l1 + l2 + w1 + w2. Variables, like “w” or “l” are simply placeholders for unknown numeric values.  Example: L = 14 centimeter (5.5 in), W = 10 centimeter (3.9 in), l1 = 5 centimeter (2.0 in), l2 = 9 centimeter (3.5 in), w1 = 4 centimeter (1.6 in), w2 = 6 centimeter (2.4 in) Note that l1 and l2 will equal L. Similarly, w1 and w2 will equal W. By plugging the numeric values of the sides into your equations, you’ll be able to find the perimeter of your compound shape. P = L + W + l1 + l2 + w1 + w2 = 14 + 10 + 5 + 9 + 4 + 6 = 48 centimeter (18.9 in)

Head toward a turn at about 30 mi (48 km) per hour. Turn the steering wheel in the direction of the bend. Spin the wheel toward the corner while applying the throttle. Steer away from the bend to begin drifting around the turn. Straighten out the car once you get around the bend.

This can be a helpful method to assist you in feeling a bit more relaxed. Nothing is going to make you forget that your baby is hooked up to machines in a tiny incubator instead of at home in his crib. However, by learning how to relax, you can see past those machines and really look at the joy of your tiny baby. If you are able to hold your baby, tune out all of the beeping monitors and really focus on holding your little one. Take advantage of this time to bond with him. Feel his skin, touch his hair, wiggle his toes...all of these moments can strengthen the parent-child bond. If you cannot hold your baby, sit near his isolette and direct your focus to him and only him. Tune out all the noises around you and pay attention to every move or noise he makes. When you are with your baby, do not get distracted by anything else. Turn off your cellphone and leave the world outside of the NICU behind you. When bonding with your baby, do not focus on his medical condition or worry about how he is doing. Save that for later when you speak with the doctors. Instead, focus completely on enjoying the precious moments that you get to spend with your baby. Chances are that your NICU baby will be sleeping most of the time. When he is awake, be sure to make eye contact with him. This can help with the bonding process and make your baby feel more comfortable. This is especially important for babies who cannot yet be held by their parents.

TL;DR in English: Practice some deep breathing techniques. Tune into your baby so that you can relax easier. Take this time to enjoy the moments spent with your baby. Make eye to eye contact with your baby whenever possible.

This is the ideal speed for sliding around the bend. If you have a manual gear shift, put the car into second gear and rev the engine up to 3,000 RPM. If you go too fast, you may lose control during the drift. If you go any slower than this, you may not have enough speed to get all the way around the bend. In drifting, speed isn’t the most important part. Good control is necessary for both destabilizing the car’s balance and also keeping you safe while drifting. As soon as you enter the turn, begin turning toward it. Spin the wheel gently and without a lot of force. This will set you up for the drift, but you’re not quite ready to start it yet. Keep the car close to the inside part of the turn for now. Keep your hands on the wheel so you’re ready to maneuver it at all times. In a power on, it is responsible for the drift as well as the car’s positioning. Try to do both simultaneously. Press down hard on the gas pedal and turn the wheel with force this time. If the move was successful, you will feel the car begin to spin as the back wheels lose traction. If you’re having a hard time starting the drift, using the handbrake or clutch could help. Combine the handbrake or clutch kick technique with the power over. Be quick about it to keep control of the car. If you’re successful, the car will point toward where you want to go. Remember to turn the wheel with force to straighten out the car. Also, continue pressing on the gas to apply even more throttle. If you don’t apply enough force, the car’s back end will come all the way around, causing you to spin out. Let go of the throttle to reduce your speed. As the car begins stabilizing again, gradually rotate the wheel back toward the bend. Focus on moving the car toward where you want to go. Once the front part of the car gets around the bend, you can begin driving toward the road. As soon as the car is stable, you can also press down on the gas to drive away.

Mix together a paste of 1 tablespoon (15 mL) of water and 2 tablespoons (6 g) of baking soda. The paste should be a bit runny, but still thick enough so that it can stick to the plate of your iron. Use filtered or distilled water, if you can. If there is any old water leftover in the iron, be sure to empty it out first. You can do this by opening the hatch to the reservoir and turning it upside down. After it is empty, use distilled or filtered water, and fill the reservoir about 1/3 of the way. You can also fill the reservoir with a mixture of 3/4 cup (180 mL) of water and 1/4 cup (60 mL) of white vinegar for a stronger cleaning solution. However, you should read your iron’s instruction manual to make sure that it will tolerate vinegar. Turn the iron to its highest setting, and make sure the steam setting is on. In this step, the steam and heat will clean out gunk and mineral deposits caught deep in the steam holes. Be careful when working with a hot iron. Don’t get burned by the steam that will be released by the iron. Make sure that you place the iron on a protected surface (e.g. a kitchen counter covered with a towel). As the iron cools, more old sediment might drip out of the iron. If there is any leftover water in the reservoir, be sure to remove it.

Check for offside only on the opposing half of the field. Compare the player's position to the ball. Look at the two defenders closest to their goal. Only check for offside at the instant a teammate touches the ball. Expect a penalty only if the offside player interferes with the area of play. Watch the referee. Understand the penalty.

. Lemon juice has natural bleaching properties that can add subtle highlights to hair without the damaging effects of bleach. It's like the sun in fruit form.  Squeeze the juice of several lemons into a small bowl. Apply the juice to the strands of your hair from root to ends using a paintbrush, your fingers, or by dipping your strands into the bowl. Sit out in the sun for 20-30 minutes to activate the bleaching effect. This method works best on light hair, as darker hair may turn orange or brassy. . If you want to add some colored streaks to your hair, you need look no further than your kitchen pantry! Kool-aid can be used to achieve purple, red, pink, and green highlights.  Boil water in a medium-sized pot. Add 4-5 packets of sugar free Kool-Aid and mix until the powder dissolves. Apply the Kool-Aid to your hair in streaks using either a paintbrush, your fingers, or by dipping your hair into the pot. Leave the color in for 10-15 minutes before rinsing. . If you're brunette and just looking for a some lighter tones for dimension, consider rinsing your hair in chamomile tea until you see the desired effect. Just brew a pot, leave it to cool, and use it to rinse your normal conditioner out of your hair. Then go relax in the sun! This won't drastically change the color of your hair -- it'll just add some natural, sun-kissed tones. It should take about a week. . If you're looking for a temporary, fun color, you can "dye" your hair with chalk. It's easier with lighter hair, but darker hair can take on a more subtle, is-it-or-isn't-it-look that's fun, too. It's super temporary, of course! If you have very light hair, the tint can last through a wash or two. If it doesn't come out completely immediately, it will come out within the next few washes.

A player can only be offside if they are on the side of the field that contains the opposing team's goal. The purpose behind the offside penalty is to prevent attackers from waiting too close to the goal. If you are on the opposing half of the field, and if any part of your head, torso, or legs are over the line, you will be judged offside. Arms and hands do not count. A player can only be in an offside position if they are between the ball and the opposing goal. The attacker is "onside" as long as there are at least two defenders level with him or in front of him. If there are one or zero defenders between the attacker and the goal, and the attacker also meets the two conditions above, he is in an offside position. The goalkeeper is usually one of the two defenders closest to the goal, but any two defenders count. There is no penalty just for being in an offside position. The referee checks an attacker's position only when one of their teammates touches the ball. As soon as an attacker releases a pass, the offside and onside status of each teammate "freezes." Each player will remain officially offside or onside no matter where they move. This only changes when the ball touches another teammate (causing offside to be "calculated" again), or when an opponent makes a deliberate play with the ball (removing all offside statuses). This is why you often see attackers sprint past defenders as soon as the ball is played. Even if someone is past the defender when she receives the ball, she is still considered onside if she was behind the defenders when the ball was released. A referee can only penalize a player for being offside if he interferes with the play or tries to gain an advantage from being offside. A player can be penalized for this at any point until the opposing team takes control of the ball. Here are a few examples of situations where a referee would call an offside penalty:  Teammate passes to an offside player. Teammate kicks the ball, it bounces off a defender, and reaches an offside player. Offside...

Start your car and let it idle warm the car up. Spray your car with a saltwater solution. Apply an alcohol and water solution to melt the ice. Buy a commercial de-icer if the homemade solutions fail. Use a squeegee, soft-bristled brush, or your windshield wipers to scrub away the residue. Keep an ice scraper in the car all winter to chip ice off your windshield.

Once you’ve slipped into the dress, make sure the straps are in the front of the dress. Cross the straps before pulling each end up to your shoulders. Pull the straps down your back and then bring them back around your waist. You can tie the straps in the back or on the side. You can also twist the straps several times before wrapping them around your waist. Slip into the dress and twist the straps in the front right below your neckline. Put them on your shoulders and create a cross in the back by twisting them similar to how you twisted the straps in the front — the first twist shouldn't have a keyhole while the second twist will resemble an "X." Bring the straps around to your front and then to the back as you wrap them around your waist. Tie the straps in a bow or knot in the back. Step into the dress and pull each strap up to your shoulders. Twist each strap until it becomes narrow and tight. Bring the straps over your shoulder and back under your armpits before crossing them in the front. Bring the straps to your back and tie them in a knot or a bow. After ensuring that the straps are in front of you while wearing the dress, tie a knot in each strap just below your shoulders. Bring the straps over your shoulders so that they’re on your back, and then wrap them around your waist. You can tie them in the front or the back.

If your car has a "defrost" setting on the temperature gauge, put it on. Wait at least fifteen minutes for the glass to warm up.  Never attempt to try to defrost the windshield using water, hot, cold, or warm. Using warm or hot water can cause the glass to break due to thermal shock due to temperature change. In very cold climates, cold water can also freeze on the windshield, making your troubles even worse. While your car is warming up, make sure no ice, snow, or other materials are blocking the vehicle tailpipe. Remove any blockage to prevent the possibility of carbon monoxide poisoning. If you drive in a very snowy area, wait until the ice has noticeably begun to melt before proceeding to the next step. It may take thicker ice well over fifteen minutes to sufficiently begin melting. This will dissolve the ice via chemical reaction rather than melting it with heat. The ions in salt also lower the freezing point of water, making it difficult for water to refreeze. Apply the saltwater sparingly to your windshield since heavy salt exposure may cause damage to the glass. While normal table salt will suffice in above freezing temperatures, you may want to consider using road salt, which is commonly shoveled onto pavements to quickly melt ice and reduce the risk of someone slipping and falling. Road salt has a different chemical composition that makes it more effective at freezing temperatures. Make a 2:1 rubbing alcohol to water solution and fill a spray bottle with it. Spray the solution onto all desired windows.  You can also add a few drops of dish soap to the solution. Adding chemicals is similar to adding salt and lowers the freezing point of water. This will melt the ice more quickly than warm water. Unlike the saltwater solution, the alcohol solution can be sprayed liberally without risking damage to your car. Most commercial formulas work well but tend to be costly. Like scrapers, these formulas shouldn't be hard to find at your local car supply store. Almost every auto store has a section dedicated to...

Before you do anything else, find out a little more about your crush. Make sure your crush is aware of your existence. Make yourself available. Tweak your style to perk your crush's interest. Take care of your hygiene. Make sure you appear in several of the classes in your crush's schedule. Start friendly, comfortable conversations with your crush, and ask nice questions about him that will help you get to know more about him. Slowly start to sit at your crush's table. At this point, if you've become good enough friends with your crush so that you're a part of his daily life and attention now, your crush should be naturally starting conversations with you instead of you doing all the starting. Finished.

Most applicators can attract bacteria, but your hands are an exception. They’re easy for you to wash, so you don’t need to worry about bacterial growth. Additionally, your hands are likely a softer option than other applicators. Unless you just prefer an applicator, just use your hands to apply the shower cream.  Your hands may be a good applicator if your skin is extremely dry or you have a skin condition. Keep in mind that you may use more product if you use your hands to apply it. If you like to create a nice lather, then sponges or loofahs are your best choice. You may also prefer a sponge or loofah because they’re good exfoliators that rub off your dead skin cells, leaving behind smooth skin. Sponges and loofahs can be abrasive, so they may irritate your skin. If you have dry or sensitive skin, it may be better to stick with your hands or use a washcloth. You can get a fresh washcloth every day, so you might use one if you like having an applicator but are worried about bacteria growing on it. Additionally, washcloths are soft, so you may like how they feel on your skin.  A soft washcloth may be best for dry or sensitive skin, if you don’t want to use your hand. Launder your washcloth after each use.

TL;DR in English: Use your hands for the simplest, cleanest option. Choose a sponge or loofah to exfoliate your skin and make a lather. Use a washcloth if you want a soft, easy to wash applicator.

Either strike up the courage to ask him yourself, or get the information from someone else.  Make sure you are aware if he is single or not.     You may want to get someone else to ask him for you, or ask one of his friends that you trust and are comfortable with. Make sure it's not obvious that you're interested in him, or there may be trouble! If you find out that he already has a girlfriend, immediately back off. If his girlfriend suspects that you are trying to win him over, or she believes that he is cheating on her, there could be plenty of trouble, and you wouldn't want to get mixed up in that! Your crush could also misunderstand your intentions, and think less of you.    Scope out where he usually sits, and who he usually sits with.     Familiarize yourself with his likes and dislikes.     Know his taste, and what types of girls he is interested in.    When you pass by him in the hallways, smile softly, and greet him with a simple, "Hey." If he smiles and greets you back, that's a good sign. If he ignores you, keep trying for a little bit, then stop if it's obvious he isn't interested in you.  Not only does this step ensure that your crush is aware of your existence, but it will also begin your relationship with him!     Make sure you don't overuse this step, as it will get a little creepy!     When you smile, don't smile widely, or you'll appear a little freakish. A soft, small but noticeable smile will make you look pretty, and he'll think of you as an approachable, friendly person.    On all of your social networks and websites, label yourself as "single". Include casually that you're single in all of your profile pages. Go even further, and - if possible - wear a single bracelet! You don't have to completely change it just for him, but try playing around with hairstyles and clothing till you find a good balance between what you feel comfortable in and what he likes to see girls wear.  For example: If your crush likes sporty girls and/or sports, wear a baseball cap or shirt (his favorite team, if...

If you feel pain in your lower back that radiates along the path of sciatic nerve (through the buttocks, thigh, and lower leg), you may be suffering from sciatica.  Sciatica pain is often described as sharp, burning, needlelike, or tingling. In some cases, sciatica can be more localized around the buttocks, with radiation in the thigh, but no pain at the lower back. The specific pain pattern will differ from person to person, and is mainly tied to the underlying cause of the sciatica. Pain is usually present in one leg, but can affect both in some cases. Muscle weakness can occur during sciatica, due to the irritation and inflammation of the nerve.  Pain and muscle weakness can be so severe that it can affect your lifestyle and daily activities. The pain could be triggered by walking, bending forward or backward, and prolonged sitting or standing. In some cases, pain can get worse even with coughing, sneezing or hard laughing, although it usually recedes after. If your symptoms become especially acute, it is necessary to seek medical attention to prevent complications from developing. These signs include:  Progressive weakness or numbness in your lower leg or thigh Inability to control your bladder or bowel movement

TL;DR in English: Keep an eye out for lower back pain. Notice any new muscle weakness. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience the following symptoms.

One of the most common ways of selecting a middle name involves using it as an opportunity to pay tribute to a close member of your family. Choosing a grandparent's first name as the middle name for your child can be a great and moving way of paying tribute to your forebears.  You can go recent into your family tree, or you can go way back. Look at a genealogy report and find distant relatives for interesting and unusual historical names that are part of your lineage. If someone is giving up their last name as part of a marriage, it's also common to use that name as the middle name for a child. The middle name can be an excellent opportunity to select something spiritually or culturally significant, giving your child a sense of history and significance. Naming a child after your favorite saint, martyr, cultural icon, or other religious figure from your tradition can lend a gravitas to a name. Think of names that are significant to sharpening your view of the world and your own morality. Pop culture names are perfectly applicable, especially if they sound good. If Johnny Cash means a lot to you, naming a child Carter Cash might be a great way of paying tribute. It's sometimes popular to use the middle name as an opportunity to go way back and choose a retro or historical name that's less common than common names. Names like "Rosemary" or "Orville" are unusual in digital age, which might make them excellent and unique names to pick for the middle of your child's name. Go through old romantic novels from 100 years ago and check out the names. Keep a running list to go by and experiment with to see how you like older names. Use a coincidental word or name at the last minute to give your child a middle name. This can be an excellent way of using chance and coincidence to pick a name, which can actually be quite unique and moving for some people. Use the month the child is born to pick the middle name, like Alex June or Christian May. You could also use the day on which the child is born: Jacob Wednesday or Christa...

This allows your actors to get a real feel for the scene before they go out and waste time, tape, and/or film.  This way they can learn the lines together or, if you're allowing them to improvise, they can start now and generate ideas for lines they'd like to use. And by crew, we mean a group of people who may or may not really know what they're doing.  If you're really serious, put an ad in the paper and find a few guys who went to film school who know a little about lighting, recording sound or working a camera.  As a director, you'll be able to get closer to what you want from people who have even the slightest idea as to what they're doing.  Or, if you want a more hands-on approach and want to learn more about the various aspects of film making, ask some of your friends to hold mics or positions lights with you.  That way you'll both learn and you just might appreciate it more.

Bag or bundle your snake. Prepare your washer. Let your snake soak. Restart the washing cycle. Air-dry the snake.

Bacteria can enter your urinary tract and grow, eventually impacting your kidney function. Or more rarely, if the bacteria travels through your bloodstream, it can move to your kidneys. One or both of your kidneys can become infected. Your urinary tract is made up of your kidneys, bladder, ureters (ducts that connect the kidneys to the bladder), and the urethra. Your first indication of a problem might be difficulty urinating. You might find yourself running to the bathroom, only to feel pain when urinating and an immediate urge to urinate even though you just did. Other symptoms of an infection include:  Fever Vomiting or nausea Chills Back, side or groin pain Abdominal pain Frequent urination Pus or blood in your urine (hematuria) Cloudy or smelly urine Delirium, or other uncommon symptoms, especially in the elderly Since women's urethras (the ducts that carry urine out of the body) are shorter, bacteria can travel easier causing infection. In addition to being a woman, other factors that increase your risk for infection include:  A weakened immune system Nerve damage near the bladder Something blocking your urinary tract (like a kidney stone or enlarged prostate) Urine that flows back into the kidneys If you have any symptoms of a kidney infection, you should contact your doctor. Since the condition requires medical treatment, it's best to get an immediate diagnosis. Your doctor will test your urine and may do an ultrasound to check for damage of the kidneys. The doctor may want to test your blood for bacteria and might look for blood in your urine sample. Since kidney infection is caused by bacteria, you'll probably be prescribed a course of antibiotics. You'll generally need to take these for about a week. In severe cases, you may be hospitalized while you get antibiotics. Always complete the course of antibiotics even if you begin to feel better. Stopping before you're done can cause the bacteria to return and resist the medication.

Put your snake inside a wash bag, pillowcase or something similar. Tie it shut. Alternatively, roll the snake up and then tie it up with white shoelaces or a similarly light-colored machine-safe cord. Do not use the snake's pull cord to do this, since the knots may tighten during washing, which means you might have to cut the cord to undo your bundle. First, set your washer to a small load on the delicate cycle. Start filling it with water and add a few drops of mild laundry detergent. Once the machine fills, switch it off. Once the machine has filled, place the snake in the soapy water. If it isn't too dirty, give it 15 to 20 minutes to soak. Give it 30 to 40 minutes if it's very soiled. Switch the machine back on once the snake has had a chance to soak. Let the cycle run to its end. Once the cycle completes, take the snake out of its bag or remove its ties. Pin the snake to a clothesline or hang it over a clothes hanger or drying rack so it can air-dry.

The best way to start detoxing your colon is to eliminate the foods that are causing problems. Start to eliminate all the foods that are a burden to your liver and your colon. This includes coffee, white sugar, white flour, dairy, and alcohol. Stop eating processed sweets, which are full of white sugar and flour. Also avoid excess amounts of cheese or ice cream. There are certain foods that will help you detox your body. These include vegetables in the Brassica family, such as broccoli, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts, kale, collard greens, and cabbage. These vegetables contain many nutrients and specific complexes called sulforaphanes that are very important in helping your body detox.   Also make sure to eat plenty of fiber, because fiber-rich foods scrub the walls of the colon and push food through the intestines quickly. Some great high-fiber foods are green vegetables, apples, berries, and brown rice.  High fiber consumption can improve colon health by helping remnants inside the colon pass through. If you have never been tested for food intolerances, you may want to visit a doctor or natural doctor to have this done. Eating foods that your body has an intolerance to slows down colon functioning and increases the likelihood of bowel toxicity. There are certain foods that will help reduce the toxins in your blood. Studies have shown that chlorophyll reduces the absorption of toxins and helps with toxin excretion. Dark, leafy greens are very high in chlorophyll. Increase your intake of spinach, kale, collard greens, parsley, wheatgrass and seaweed. Try incorporating these into every meal. Add your eggs to a bed of steamed kale or throw some spinach and wheatgrass in a smoothie. You can also buy dried seaweed chips as a snack. Probiotics are good for overall colon health and also specifically help with detoxification. Probiotics decrease an enzyme in your body that causes your colon to hold onto toxins instead of excreting them. While it is a good idea to take a probiotic capsule every day for general health,...

Sleek black heels will add sex appeal and complete the high-fashion look of your leather lace-ups and black top. Pointed-toe black heels with ankle straps can look sharp with leather pants. High-heeled black booties with a chunky silhouette also work well and can add a rock-and-roll edge to your chic outfit. The sportiness of lace-up leggings goes perfectly with a pair of designer sneakers. High-top and low-top trainers both look great, so choose according to your personal style. You can branch out with color, but plain white sneakers can add a nice contrast while complimenting the overall minimal vibe of the outfit. Keep the rest of your outfit black and simple, then add a glamorous coat on top. You can tone down a racy outfit by wearing a statement coat over it without losing the overall high-fashion vibe. Complete the look with a pair of black cat-eye sunglasses. Go for high drama by wearing a duster-length black coat or one that is trimmed in fur. Your lace-up pants should be the most eye-catching element of your outfit. Choose minimal accessories in dark neutral colors. For example, carry a simple black leather clutch and wear a pair of basic black sunglasses. Wear a pair of nude ballet flats for the ultimate casual minimalism. Avoid wearing a lot of jewelry with this look, which can end up looking overwhelming.

TL;DR in English: Play up the raciness of leather lace-ups by wearing black heels. Wear trendy sneakers or trainers with lace-up leggings. Add a touch of glam with a long black statement coat and sunglasses. Keep your accessories simple and sleek.

If you are shy and quiet by nature, that's okay! Try to reach out of your comfort zone and people will notice. Join in on a conversation with some popular people, but don't force yourself to be someone that you're not. Talk to everyone, don't leave people out, and you will surely be noticed. It's not that easy for some, but confidence will help with becoming popular. Keep eye contact during conversation, stand up tall, always keep your head up and smile. Faking confidence on the outside can help you become more confident on the inside. Get out there and have fun! You might be inclined to hide away, but try not to. Show people that you like them and you're interested in getting to know them better. Be nice, and compliment them on their style or an accomplishment they've recently achieved. Always build people up, and never be a bully! If someone you admire is wearing a cool outfit, tell them you like it and ask them where they got their clothes from. It's an easy conversation starter. If you hang out with some unpopular kids, don't ditch them! Hang out with everyone. Be nice to people and make new friends. People will appreciate this and if they don't, they're not worth your time.

Place the turkey in your preheated oven and roast it for 2-1/4 to 2-3/4 hours, or until the meat thermometer reads 180 degrees Fahrenheit (82 degrees Celsius).  The cooking time will vary depending on the weight of the turkey. As a general rule:  Roast for 1-1/2 to 2 hours for an 8 to 12 lb (3.6 to 5.4 kg) turkey. Roast for 2 to 2-1/2 hours for a 12 to 16 lb (5.4 to 7.2 kg) turkey. Roast for 2-1/2 to 3 hours for a 16 to 20 lb (7.2 to 9 kg) turkey. Roast for 3 to 3-1/2 hours for a 20 to 24 lb (9 to 10.8 kg) turkey.   Note that these time ranges are for an unstuffed turkey. If you stuffed the turkey, you will need to add another 30 to 45 minutes to the cooking time. You should also test the temperature of the turkey breast before removing the bird from the oven. The breast meat must reach an internal temperature of 170 degrees Fahrenheit (77 degrees Celsius). Remove the finished turkey from the oven but let it stand in the roasting bag for another 10 to 15 minutes. During this resting time, the meat will continue to cook, and the juices will distribute themselves and settle more consistently. Carefully slice the top of the bag open with a knife. Remove the turkey and place it onto a cutting board or serving platter.  Be careful when opening the bag. The steam will be hot and may cause mild burns if it comes into direct contact with sensitive skin. To lift the turkey out of the bag and roasting pan, insert one carving fork into each end of the turkey, then lift it straight up and out. Carve the turkey as desired and serve it while the meat is still hot. If desired, you can pour the leftover cooking juices out of the bag and into a bowl or saucepan. Skim the oil and use the rest of the liquid for turkey gravy or broth.

TL;DR in English: Roast the turkey. Let it rest. Remove the turkey from the bag. Serve hot.

The paper may not be completely flat after you remove it from the wooden boards. Put the paper under a stone slab for up to 6 days to make it completely flat.  During this time, the sugars within the papyrus will fuse together. If you are pressed for time, you can use the rolling pin to flatten the paper. This step isn't absolutely necessary, but it will make the papyrus look nicer and more finished. Use a shell or smooth piece of ivory. Any type of shell that is smooth and without ridges will do. Rub the shell or ivory over the sheet of paper until it appears to be shinier than it was.  A smooth stone will work as well. Do not rub with too much force or you could rip the paper. The sheet may be larger than you want when it is finished. Use a razor, scissors, or paper cutter to cut the papyrus into smaller sheets. Measure the sizes you are cutting so you will have multiple sheets of the same size. You can  make  a notebook out of the sheets of paper you've just made.

Know the Minimum Program Requirements for LEED certification. Determine what type of project you need certified. Understand the LEED credit system. Consult LEED certified professionals. Apply online for LEED certification. Know the LEED certification deadline. Work with the US Green Building Council during the review process.

Your doctor will look over your health history and status to determine the next steps. They may recommend changes to your lifestyle before prescribing any medications or supplements. Head out in your neighborhood or hop onto the treadmill at the gym for a 30-minute walk. Go at a moderate-intense pace where you can barely talk or hold a conversation. Walking on a regular basis helps to increase blood flow to the brain and can also improve your blood oxygen levels, which can reduce the possibility of headaches. There is also some evidence showing that walking as soon as you experience headache pains may also reduce the duration of the headache. However, just make sure that you are not experiencing dizziness if you decide to try this out. Potassium-rich foods have been shown to reduce high blood pressure. Try to incorporate cantaloupe, melon, raisins, peas, and even potatoes into your daily diet. If you are worried about your levels, you can also talk with your doctor about taking a daily supplement or multivitamin. Other potassium-packed foods include sweet potatoes, bananas, and tomatoes. Magnesium helps out with many reactions in the body, including regulating blood pressure. Take the supplement daily before bed to help relax muscles, improve sleep quality, and manage hypertension headaches long-term. Magnesium is commonly found in spinach, almonds, and peanut butter. Snoring or restless nights can be a sign of sleep apnea, a condition which, if left untreated, can seriously elevate your blood pressure. Talk with your doctor about signing up for a sleep study. And, if you are diagnosed with sleep apnea, consider lifestyle changes, medication options, or even sleeping with a breathing mask. Sleep apnea boosts the levels of the hormone aldosterone, which can contribute to high blood pressure.

TL;DR in English: Talk to your doctor about managing your blood pressure. Go for brisk walks at least 3 times a week. Ingest between 2,000-4,000 mg of potassium each day. Take a 200-400 mg supplement of magnesium. Get treatment for sleep apnea if you suffer from early morning headaches.

Before requesting a member of LEED comes to certify your building, you need know if your building or project is eligible. In general any new building -- commercial or residential -- is eligible to be certified if it is a permanent structure, meets local building codes, and fits the LEED size requirements. New Neighborhoods, building upgrades, and complete remodeling projects can all be LEED certified. There are different processes for all types buildings, including neighborhoods, renovations, and homes. Each certification is done by a different set of professionals:   BD+C: Building Design and Construction. This certifies any newly constructed building that meets LEED requirements.  O+M: Operations and Management. Certifies improvements to existing buildings that makes them more efficient or green.  ID+C: Interior Design and Construction. Certifies interior designs as healthy and efficient work spaces.  ND: Neighborhood Development. Certifies neighborhood construction, design, and planning.  Homes: Certifies individual homes as efficient in energy consumption and wast management. LEED credits add up to form your building's "LEED Score," and includes everything from solar panels to light pollution reduction. A complete list of potential credits can be found in the LEED Credit Library. As you plan your building, discuss potential LEED credits with your architect and designers to maximize your project's green efficiency. To become certified, you need a minimum of 40 credits.  Several credits, like "building water metering" are required to become LEED certified. Buildings can also reach for higher certifications, such as Silver (50-59 points), Gold, (60-79 points) or Platinum (80+ points) certifications. LEED certified Associate Professionals (APs) are trained to help you plan, design, and build LEED specific projects. They are required to pass rigorous exams and continue their education even after their test. When starting a project, look for the title "LEED AP" next to any builder or designer you hire.

This is a middle ground approach, moderately effective and relatively easy to install. You can expect it to add roughly 6 to 9 "STC points," reducing loud conversations to indistinct speech or murmurs. If you're trying to block music and other loud noises, decouple the ceiling instead. Use the decoupling method for concrete ceilings as well. Drill a quarter-sized hole in the ceiling and look for insulation. If none is present, blow in cellulose or medium density fiberglass insulation. There is no need to repair the holes afterward, since you will be installing new drywall underneath.  Do not install new insulation if there's any old insulation, even if it's worn out. The old insulation will prevent you from blowing in new insulation evenly. Avoid foam insulation and expensive "extra dense" products. These can make low density vibrations worse. "Green Glue" or another damping compound will reduce vibration between the two layers of material. Apply it to the back of a new sheet of drywall, according to label instructions.  ⅝" (15.9mm) drywall is recommended, since extra mass blocks more sound. However, if the existing drywall is ⅝" thick, choose ½" (12.7mm) sheets for the new layer. Different thicknesses resonate at different frequencies, so two different types will block more sound.  You can buy pre-dampened drywall, but this is expensive and no different from what you could make yourself. . Screw the drywall to the underside of your ceiling. Try to keep the gap around the perimeter as small as possible. Even a narrow gap around the perimeter or ceiling fixture can let a lot of noise through. Before choosing an acoustical caulk, read the label carefully:  Confirm the caulk is suitable for use on your materials. Check whether you can paint over the caulk. If not, make sure the color matches your ceiling. Consider a fire-resistant caulk to prevent spread of fire between floors. This may be required by your local building code. The damping compound is a major part of this installation. It may take ten days or...

Indent the surface just before baking. Choose the right tools. Secure the bead. Drill slowly straight through the bead. Check the results.

Many people jump straight to drastic measures instead of simply talking to the neighbor about their concerns. Unless you're on bad terms with your neighbor, the best way to solve this problem is usually to just talk to him or her about it. You could casually approach your neighbor next time you see him or her outside, or write a note asking to set up a time to talk.  Your tone at this point should be friendly and be respectful, yet firm. Don't make legal threats; you may have to do that later, but for now, try to keep things civil. Assume your neighbor is unaware of the problem. Say something like, "I knew you'd want to know that Sadie's barking is audible to us at night, especially since our bedroom faces your yard." Explain that the barking is having a negative effect on your sleep, concentration, and so on, and that you would like to work out a good solution. Thank your neighbor for hearing you out and making a change. Most considerate neighbors will do their best to accommodate you right away. It's possible your neighbor is well aware of the issue but isn't sure how to  get the dog to stop barking. If you're pretty sure you know what the problem is, there's nothing wrong with making suggestions. This is especially effective if you're a dog owner, too. You can commiserate over how tough it can be to get a dog to stop barking. Here are a few common problems you might consider bringing up:   Dogs kept outside commonly bark from boredom; this is especially true for energetic breeds like German Shepherds, terriers (including Pit Bulls), and guard dogs like Dobermans and Rottweilers. Suggest that the dog needs more exercise.  Some dogs are very excitable and nervous, and they bark at everything that passes. Obedience training can be very helpful. You might want to provide the names of a few well-rated training schools in the area. Dogs also bark when they're either too cold or too hot. Many people have the misconception that dogs' fur keeps them warm in subzero weather; it's not the case unless the dog is a...

If possible, use a toothpick to poke a small hole or indentation into the bead before you bake it.  The indentation should be centered over the position you plan to drill a hole through. This indentation can serve as a guide when you start drilling into the hardened, baked bead later. If you forget to make the indentation before you bake the beads, you can still poke a hole into the bead just after it bakes, while the clay is still warm and partially soft. You will need to use a rigid metal pin or needle instead of a toothpick, however. If you are working with polymer clay beads that were baked long ago and cannot create any indentation, consider at least marking the spot you want to drill a hole through with a pencil or marker. Since polymer clay is such a soft material, you should not use a power drill or power rotary tool to create a hole. All you need to use is an unpowered drill bit.  The drill bit should be about as small as the size of the desired hole. This means sticking with drill bits 1/8 inch (3.175 mm) or smaller. Common drill bits should suffice. There is no need to use a harder bit material. Place the bead in a small patch of toy putty or poster putty so that it will remain still during the drilling process.  Alternatively, you can hold the bead with pliers or in between your fingers. Since you will not be using any power tools, it should be safe to hold the bead. A small clamp could also be used, but it usually isn't necessary. Position the drill bit directly over the indentation. Use your fingers to twist through the bead, continuing at a steady pace until the bit pierces through the opposite side.  The drill bit should be straight and perpendicular to the guiding indentation previously created on the surface of the bead. Make sure that you are twisting the bit straight through the bead. Apply as little pressure as possible and avoid forcing the bit through the bead. Alternatively, you can hold the bit still while twisting the bead onto it. If you are unable to twist either the bit or the...
