There are many excellent model castle designs available online and at craft stores. These designs are good for beginners or for those working with unforgiving mediums such as wood. However, if you have a specific design in mind, it may be best to design your own castle. When a drawing is “to scale,” it is drawn with accurate proportions. To create accurate proportions, scale the measurements of your castle down. For example, if your castle will be three feet by two feet (.9 meters by .6 meters), your drawing could be three inches by two inches (7.6 cm by 5.08 cm).  It may be useful to use graph paper to sketch your castle. Include any small details such as turrets or a drawbridge. Your castle will be composed of several large sections with many small sections mounted on top. For example, if you’re building a simple square castle with towers on each corner, your large section would be a square shape and your small sections would be cylinders. Sketch each section separately to help you visualize the building process. Use your sketch as a guide. Create measurements for each separate section of the castle. Visualize building the castle with these different sections to help check your measurements. Make sure you include any accent features. For example:  Turrets Towers Roofs A large base for your castle This step is optional, but it may be useful to create paper templates of any repetitive forms.  For example, if you’re making a foam castle with a lot of towers, create a paper template of a tower. Next, lay the template on each piece of foam to cut out the tower. Each tower will be the same size and shape. This method is also useful when creating paper castles. Instead of drawing and measuring each repetitive section, make a paper template to use.

TL;DR in English: Decide whether or not to create your own design. Sketch the castle to scale. Separate the large and small sections. Measure and plan each section. Consider making paper templates.

Even before cleaning a cut or scrape, make sure you’re able to stop the bleeding.  Surface-level cuts and scratches will stop bleeding on their own after a few minutes. To help slow bleeding, apply pressure with a soft, clean material.  Bleeding helps clean wounds, so don’t be distressed by a bit of blood. Apply firm but gentle pressure to the wound with a clean cloth, tissue or piece of gauze. If the blood soaks through, use more of whatever materials you’re using.  Maintain pressure for 20 minutes.  Areas rich in blood vessels — such as all of your head — may bleed more than expected. Raise a wounded arm or leg above your heart to slow the bleeding. Rinse the wound with clean water and wash around the wound with soap and water to reduce the risk of infection.  Take care not to get soap into the wound itself. Remove any persistent dirt or debris with tweezers that have been cleaned with alcohol. You do not need to use hydrogen peroxide or iodine for most minor cuts and scrapes.  Consider using hydrogen peroxide only if the wound was exposed to a potential source of contaminant, such as unclean water. Instead of using potentially harmful chemicals to clean the wound, use a safer method of preventing infection by coating the wound in an antibiotic cream or ointment, such as Neosporin.  Cover the entire wound in a thin layer. Know that antibiotic application will not make the wound heal faster; it will only help prevent infection by keeping the wound clean and moist. If a rash develops after antibiotic application, discontinue use immediately. Know that antibiotics are not a vital step in the treatment of minor cuts and scrapes.  Most will heal without, though protection from both bandages and antibiotics can help prevent scarring.

Cover the ice pack with a towel so that it doesn't get too cold. Then, place the ice pack over the area with the sores. Leave it in place for about 10-15 minutes. Then, wait an hour before repeating the treatment. You may also soak a clean washcloth with cold water and apply the cool, wet compress to the lesions. Ice provides immense relief to most types of pain, as it numbs the skin and dulls the pain receptors in the area. If cold doesn't help relieve the pain, some people get more relief with hot/warm compresses. Use a clean cotton towel or washcloth folded so that it covers the entire area with the sores. Use water that is at a warm-hot temperature. Soak the towel, wring out excess water, and apply to the painful area. Use a clean towel or washcloth each time you repeat the process and wash each item in hot soapy water to prevent the possible spread of the infection. Propolis is a waxy resin made by bees that has antiviral properties and appears to accelerate the healing of sores. You can use ointments or salves that contain propolis to soothe and help heal the sores.  Many health food stores and drugstores carry these products. Make sure you buy an ointment or salve (not a capsule or tincture) and follow the manufacturer’s instructions. For propolis and any other topical home remedy, try a small amount on an unaffected area of skin and wait 24 hours (to ensure you don't have any allergic reactions) before applying it to the site of your outbreak. Aloe gel or an aloe ointment can be used for pain relief, and it works even better if it’s cool. Place the aloe plat stem or gel in your refrigerator for a few hours before using it. Apply the chilled aloe directly onto the sore. You can do this by breaking off a bit of an aloe plant and squeezing out the juice, or by using a commercial product and following the manufacturer’s instructions. You can let the aloe gel or ointment dry and later wash off the crust. Reapply every 4 hours as needed. Three 1,000 mg doses of lysine per day may shorten the length of an...

TL;DR in English: Use ice or a cool compress on the area. Apply a warm compress. Dab propolis onto the affected area. Apply chilled aloe to help relieve pain. Try taking a lysine supplement.

Your parents are going to ask you a lot of questions. By being prepared for these questions, you can make a better and more persuasive case. You will also look responsible if you have the answers to most of their questions. Questions that your parents might ask are:  “Whose dogs will you be walking?” “When will you work?” or, “What will your work schedule be like?” “How much will you be paid?” “How will you get there?” “How much do you know about dogs?” or, “Will you be able to handle a dog if it becomes aggressive?” Approach your parents when they are not busy doing something, like cooking, fixing the sink, or helping your sibling with their homework. Also, make sure to bring up the topic when they are in a good mood. Don’t bring up the topic when they are stressed or angry.  Driving in the car, going for a walk, or after dinner are examples of good times to talk. If you want to talk, but you see that your parents are busy, then ask, “Can we talk? Is now a good time to talk?” “I have something to talk about with you. When is a good time to talk?” and “Mom (or Dad), do you have a minute?” When your parent feels like they are cornered, or if they feel like they are being rushed, they are more likely to say no than yes. Therefore, by asking for a delayed response, it will give your Dad or Mom time to consider your request. This will also make you look patient, and thus, mature.  Ask for a delayed response by saying, “You do not need to say yes or no right away. I want you to take the time to review the information, and think about my request before deciding.” Show some gratitude by saying, “I know both of you guys work really hard to provide for me and my sister. But, I want to start taking more responsibility for some of my things and try help out. By having this job, I will be able to pay for some of my clothes and video games. Think about it.”

If you loathe spending time alone, you’ll have a harder time being happy without friends. Make a commitment to start loving your alone time by spending it doing exciting activities.  For instance, if you tend to think spending time alone is boring, come up with a list of  fun activities you can do alone. Your list might include going to a concert, binge-watching a TV show, creating a DIY home project, starting a scrapbook, planting a garden, reading a book you have always wanted to read, and exploring new parts of your city or town. Each time you’re alone, use that time to cross something off your list. Over time, you’ll start to enjoy time spent alone. The secret to a happy, fulfilling life is spending your days doing what you love. So, use your days to pursue your passions and interests. Think about ways you can add these activities to your daily life. For example, if you enjoy playing the piano, you might join a band or volunteer to play at your church. If you like writing, you might attempt to complete your first short story or novel. Some people have a tendency to shy away from difficult things, but challenges actually help us to grow and enjoy life. Take a look at your life and find small ways to kick things up a notch. For example, if you have been doing the same workout routine for a year, switch things up by signing up for a new class or trying a new workout regimen. Having something to look forward to is necessary to lead a satisfying life. Goals help give you a sense of direction in life and motivate you to keep pushing forward. Plus, once you cross the finish line, you’ll feel more accomplished and self-assured.  Think of something you have put off in the past. Set a small, actionable goal relating to it and start working towards it today. For example, maybe you want to save money to travel the world. You’ll need to figure out how much money the trip requires and then devise a plan to save it within a given time-frame. Use some of your spare time to figure out the least expensive way to do this....

You will be tracing this design onto the freezer paper, so make sure that you use thick, dark likes for your design. This method works great for reverse stencils, such as silhouettes. Tape your design to a table first, so that it doesn't move around, then tape the freezer paper on top of that, shiny-side-down. Trace use a pen to trace over your design once more.  If you are having trouble seeing the design through the freezer paper, tape everything to a light table or a bright widow. Make sure that you are using freezer paper, not wax paper or parchment paper. Transfer your freezer paper to a cutting mat. Cut out the design as precisely as you can using a craft blade. You can also try using a small pair of scissors. Do not cut past the outline of your design. If your design has an inner shape, save that shape. Place the freezer paper, shiny-side-down onto your shirt where you want the design to be. Iron the entire shirt using a hot, dry iron. The heat of the iron will cause the freezer paper to stick to the shirt.  Focus on the edges of the freezer paper. If your design has an inner shape, iron that shape to the shirt as well. The cardboard needs to be a little larger than your design. It will prevent the paint from soaking into the back of the shirt. Squirt some fabric paint onto a paper plate, plastic lid, tray, or any other sort of pallet. Dip your pouncer brush into the paint, then lightly tap it over the stencil. Do not drag it back and forth and do not over-saturate the shirt.  You can apply more than one layer of paint. Wait about 20 minutes before doing so.  You can also use fabric spray paint instead. This is great if you want to use multiple colors for an ombre effect. This can take a few hours to overnight. As the shirt is drying, run your finger under the fabric to separate it from the cardboard. This will prevent the two from sticking together. Once the shirt is dry, you can pull the cardboard out.

In general, winemakers will use the racking process to rack when moving it from the primary fermenter to the secondary vessel, and when moving wine from the secondary fermenter to a bulk aging vessel. Wine is often also racked after fermentation is complete, to help clarify the wine and remove some of the sediment. The process and vigorousness of racking largely will depend on the variety of wine you're making and your own personal taste as an enjoyer of wine.  Some wine makers rack only once and others will rack four or five times, depending upon the flavor profile they're going for and how clear they want the wine.  If you're going to eventually filter your wine, you don't need to rack it more than once or twice. By the time the batch has been fermenting for a week, it'll need to be put into a carboy with an airlock, which means you'll need to move it from the first vessel anyway, making it a good time to rack it and move it to an appropriate secondary fermentation vessel, outfitted with an airlock.  Be very careful not to rack your wine too early. The fermentation process produces a large quantity of gas, making it dangerous for carboys and barrels alike, if it's too active. For the most part, carboys are made safe by outfitting them with an airlock, which serves to let gasses escape the vessel, but keep outside oxygen, microbes, and bacteria from getting in. The second racking comes when the wine is finished fermenting, sometimes after a few days more and sometimes after as much as a month. Typically, this racking needs to be done to remove as much of the spent yeast as possible, since it should have settled thoroughly and is no longer affecting the fermentation process. As the yeast becomes less active a week into the fermentation, it's less vigorous about protecting itself from contaminants, which means it needs to be air-locked. The less sediment that makes it through this first step, the better. Even this early in the process, as much as 80 percent of the sediment will already be in place, as well as...

To prepare for a major work out and prevent injury it is important to warm up and stretch. For a warm up you should do one set of approximately 15 reps at half of your maximum capacity. To stretch your biceps, lift your arms out to your sides at shoulder height. Open the palms up towards the sky and continue turning the palms backwards. Anatomically, this places the muscle in the most elongated position. Hold for at least 30 seconds. If you put too much swing into your motion or use your back and legs to help get momentum, your biceps won’t actually get much of a workout. However, some experts now say that a little bit of cheating toward the end of a workout can be helpful.  If you are at the end of your workout and are trying to get a few additional reps, cheating can add to the intensity of your workout. However, you should only use it to extend your workout. To prevent cheating, you can do the exercise against a wall or sitting down. You may also adopt a staggered stance so one foot is slightly more forward, the other slightly more back. This is a great position to prevent swinging the back. Cheat at most on the last two or three reps in a set. If you begin experiencing muscle fatigue earlier than that, consider reducing your weight load. You should be sure to get the full upward motion of your curl. Part of this consists in focusing on your movement and the other part consists in keeping your weight resistance at a reasonable level.  Do a slow curl. Take two seconds to raise the weight, hold for a second, and then take two second to lower it. Flex your muscles at the end of curl. During some workouts, you should perform a curl in which you twist your arms so that your palms are facing toward you at the beginning of the curl and facing up toward the ceiling at the end. There are some techniques that can be used on the last rep of a set to extend your workout and make it more intense. You can use these at the end of one or two sets per workout.  Try a partial rep. To get additional reps, only do part of the...

If the environment is too loud or busy, the person may not be able to focus on interacting with you. Find quiet places to hang out, so that you can get the person's full attention.  Try to avoid surprises in general. A sensitive person might be bothered or even hurt by things that don't seem like a big deal to you. Assume that the problem is very real to them, even if you don't see it the same way. It's not kind to dismiss, invalidate, or accuse a sensitive person because of who they are. Keep in mind that sensitivity is not a choice, and the person is probably doing the best they can to cope with the situation they're in. Avoid rude comments like:   "Why are you so sensitive?" "You're too sensitive!" "You're just doing this for attention." "Get over yourself." "Stop being so dramatic." "You need therapy to fix this problem." and give them patience. Making reassuring and understanding comments can help calm the person. Try labeling their feelings, and treating their feelings as understandable. Here are some examples of helpful things to say:   "I can tell you're pretty stressed." "I'm not surprised you're overwhelmed. It is pretty loud in here." "It's okay to cry. I don't mind." "Take as long as you need to calm down. There's no rush." "Of course you're hurt. It wasn't right of her to call you names." "I'm here for you while you deal with this." "You're allowed to be upset." A sensitive person may get overwhelmed more easily. Keeping your cool, and doing your best to help them through it, can help calm them a little. If you can see them getting stressed or overwhelmed, remind them how they can handle it. Suggest that they take some deep breaths, take a break, or go somewhere quiet for a while. They may appreciate knowing that you're okay with them taking a break to manage their feelings. Sometimes, you may feel frustrated, confused, or upset about the way the person acts. You're allowed to feel this way. Take some quiet time to sort through your emotions, or talk to a trusted mentor about what's going on.  ...

Some people think that they have to act like someone else to get a person to like them, or always be on guard to protect themselves. However, this is really just tricking that person into thinking you are someone that you are not and never allowing them to get to know the real you. Be willing to let your guard down and let your boyfriend know the real you.   Show your boyfriend your real personality by sharing your interests and hobbies, sharing jokes that you think are funny, sharing what type of music you like, and acting in a way that feels comfortable for you. Share your hopes, dreams, and fears to practice being vulnerable around your boyfriend.  Do not apologize for who you are! If your boyfriend does not understand or appreciate your personality, then perhaps he is not the right guy for you to be dating. Although some people claim to not be creative at all, everyone is creative in unique ways. If it feels challenging for you to communicate verbally, another way to get comfortable around your boyfriend is to express yourself creatively.  Show him artwork that you created, songs that you wrote, poetry that you wrote, and things of that nature. If you are into technology, you could tell him about a video game, website, or app that you are designing. Girls especially struggle with this. There is often a feeling of always needing to look perfect when around your boyfriend. However, displaying confidence even when you do not look perfect helps you to relax around him.  If you are a girl, do not be afraid to spend time with him without any makeup. In fact, many boys and men prefer the way girls and women look without makeup as opposed to with it. Wear clothing that feels comfortable to you. You do not always have to dress to impress; wearing jeans and a t-shirt or even sweatpants, if you are hanging out at home, is perfectly acceptable. One of the most important aspects of any relationship is friendship. The strongest couples are also friends, so if you were not already friends with your boyfriend prior to...

Use water and a facial cleanser to clear make up, dirt, and debris away from your brows. Make sure your brows are thoroughly dry before you begin. The pencil should be in line with the corner of your eye and the center of your nostril. Make sure to hold the pencil in a straight position. Observe where the tip of the pencil lands on your brow. This is where your eyebrow should start.  If you have wide set eyes, you will want to make this gap slightly narrower. If you have close set eyes, you will want to make the gap between the brows wider.  Your eyebrow size may need to be adjusted, depending on your unique facial features. A good rule of thumb is that the gap between your eyebrows should be about the length of your eye.

Gasoline often carries a static electric charge. Place the can on the ground before filling it, where any static electric charge carried by the gasoline can disperse. If you fill the can on a plastic surface, sparks may occur and ignite the gasoline. Remove the cap of your gas can and open the vent located at the top. Place the cap on the ground next to the can. Pick up the pump and insert the nozzle into the can, making contact with the inside. Squeeze the pump to dispense gas into the can. Fill the container no more than 95% full. This will accommodate volume changes that might occur in different temperatures. Once you are done filling the can, remove the nozzle. Put the cap back on and seal it as tightly as possible. The gas can should be completely closed.

If your acrylic tub is heavily stained or dirty, consider filling the tub with hot water and vinegar. This will help loosen the dirt and grime before you clean the tub. Fill the tub with hot water and pour in 2 cups (470 mL) of vinegar. Let it sit for about 15 minutes and then drain the tub. The acid in the vinegar will help loosen the dirt without damaging the acrylic tub. Sprinkle baking soda all over the tub while it's still wet. If you didn't fill the tub with hot water and vinegar, just pour or spray water along the inside and sides of the tub. Let the baking soda sit on the tub for a few minutes.  The baking soda can clean mold, mildew, and soap scum. It's also gentle to use on the acrylic tub. For a stronger cleanser, you could use borax instead of baking soda. Dip a soft cloth or sponge into water and scrub the baking soda in the tub. The baking soda will form a bit of a paste as you clean the tub. Ensure that you're using a non-abrasive sponge or you may scratch the acrylic tub. Gently scrub the entire tub. Avoid using scrubbers or sponges that have a rough side designed for heavy-duty cleaning. Instead, look for a gentle sponge or just use a soft cloth. If you have hard to reach edges or places where the tub meets fixtures (like the faucets), get an old toothbrush and scrub the spots. The toothbrush will be gentle enough to remove tough dirt and grime. You can also use a long-handled scrub brush, as long as the bristles are soft. Fill a bucket with water and pour it over the tub to rinse away the baking soda and dirt. Continue rinsing until the tub is clean. If you notice stains, rub half of a lemon over the stains until they lift. Rinse the stains with water and wipe them dry with a soft cloth. Lemon works well for removing hard-water deposits.

Parents are often more distressed than their teenagers by bickering or minor, day-to-day arguments. They may still be troubled by a conflict that you have almost forgotten about. If your parent still seems upset about an old conflict, don’t dismiss their feelings. Instead, ask them what is still bothering them, and listen thoughtfully to their answer. Teenagers and parents often frame conflicts in different ways. Teenagers are more likely to emphasize personal choice, while their parents are more likely to focus on underlying issues of right versus wrong. For example, you might see your messy room as just one way to live, while your parent might see a certain level of dirtiness as fundamentally wrong. While it can be frustrating, try not to tell your parents that their way of seeing things is completely wrong. Instead, focus on practical issues: how often do your parents expect you to do your laundry? Will your mess bother them less if the door is shut? You are likely to be more emotional at this phase of your life. In addition, you might tend to see emotion in others, even when it’s not there. Practice reality testing: ask your parents calmly how they feel about something, or even ask them directly: “Were you angry at me when I came in just now?” Doing fun activities together can help foster a good relationship with your parents. It’s helpful for them to see you out in the world, navigating different situations with maturity and grace. For example, inviting your parents to go on a hike with you might help them to feel more open to allowing you to go on an overnight camping trip later on. Teenagers naturally seek out stronger connections with their peers than with their parents. If you let your parents get to know your friends, however, it will be easier for them to be open to letting you spend time with them later at night or in more independent ways. If you are able to talk seriously and openly about adult issues such as sex, relationships, and your future, you will have a better and more adult relationship...

Most of the bright, unnatural dye colors available are semi-permanent dyes. Unless you have natural light blonde hair, you will need to bleach the bottom layer of your hair before you dye it red for the color to show up. If you apply red semi-permanent dye to your hair without bleaching it first, the color will be nearly undetectable. Consider seeing a professional for bleaching, especially if you’ve never done it before. Bleaching is not as easy as dyeing your hair. Far more chemicals are involved and these chemicals can burn your skin and severely damage your hair. Begin with completely dry hair – never bleach damp or wet hair. Read the directions that came with your bleach product carefully. Follow them exactly. Wear the gloves provided and be extremely careful while you apply the bleach and when you rinse it out. Rinse the  bleach out with lukewarm water until the water runs clear. Make sure you are working in a well-ventilated area, since bleach fumes are quite strong. Run a wide-toothed comb through your hair to remove any tangles. Let your hair air dry about halfway before moving on to the red dye. You don’t want to apply the red to completely dry hair, but it shouldn’t be soaking wet either. Read and follow the directions for application. Place an old towel around your shoulders before you begin to protect your body. Once you’ve got the red dye on your hair, leave it on for the time recommended on the directions. Semi-permanent dye is not damaging to the hair, and the longer you leave it on, the brighter the red will be. You should still have your top layer securely clipped on top of your head. Follow the directions that came with the dye for rinsing it out. You may need to rinse it out with your head turned sideways beneath the faucet to avoid wetting the rest of your hair. Keep rinsing until the water runs clear.  Gently towel dry your hair. Allow it to air dry or take down the top layer and style your hair as you normally would. You may want to avoid sleeping on a light-colored pillowcase for a few...

TL;DR in English: Prepare the bleach. Bleach the bottom layer of your hair. Towel dry the bottom layer gently. Dye the bottom layer with red semi-permanent dye. Rinse out the red dye with cool water.

What would you love to do for a living? Where would you like to live? What hobbies would you like to pursue? You don't need definitive answers for any of these questions, but this is a good way to get the ball rolling and help you find ways to prepare and train for adulthood. Brainstorm what you want life to look like when you're 20, 30, and 50. Note what things are important to you, and know that there are absolutely no wrong answers. You may want to be living easy in a beautiful location, or working hard in the bustling big city, it doesn't matter. Having an idea of your goals and dreams for the future helps you make the most of the present. If you're having trouble, think about all of the things you don't want to do. This can reveal your real passions. Perfection only comes one small step at a time. You will not become the most popular kid at school, the best soccer player, or an award-winning filmmaker overnight, but you can start taking steps now to make these goals a reality. Start with your end goal, then work backward. What do you have to accomplish to get there? For example, if you wanted to be a professional soccer player:  Sign with a professional team or club. Play high-level college soccer. Get recruited to a college soccer team. Succeed on a competitive youth team. Train for your tryouts. Improve you shooting, passing, opposite foot, and fitness. Talk with current coaches and players about skills you still need to learn to become a pro in 10 years. Being a teenager is hard. You have a lot of people -- coaches, parents, teachers -- who all have different plans and ideas for your future. There is so much advice being shoved at you that it is hard to listen to the one person who knows you best: you. As much as possible, schedule time in your life to pursue your own passions, whether that includes finishing all of the Game of Thrones books or coding your own app. Let people know your goals and ask them for their support. Oftentimes, adults don't realize what you want to do and compensate by telling...

TL;DR in English: Sketch out your goals for adult life. Make a series of goals to help reach your dreams. Take the time to focus on your own dreams and goals. Talk to adults in your potential field or profession. Accept and embrace that your goals may change.

If you're uncomfortable handling a snake, even if you don't believe it to be venomous, there's no reason you should deal with it yourself. Call animal control to trap it and take it away. Snakes with venomous bites should always be handled by professionals, such as animal control employees or a wildlife trapper.  Try to enclose the snake in one room. If you see it in the laundry room, for example, shut the door and wedge a towel underneath it to prevent the snake from escaping. Keep children and pets away from the area until animal control has captured the snake. Most snakes will leave your house on their own if given time and opportunity. If you find a snake in your garage or in a room leading to the outside, shut the inside doors and open the door leading outside so the snake can slither out. The snake should leave fairly quickly. This is a simpler and more reliable method than a more aggressive hands-on approach, which may frighten the snake and cause it to hide in a hard-to-reach location in your home. If you feel comfortable taking care of the snake on your own, try this common removal method: first, set a large trash can on its side in the same room as the snake. Then use a push-broom to shoo the snake into the trash can. Once the snake is in the trash can, tip the can upright and place a lid firmly on top.  Once the snake is securely inside of the trashcan, take the snake to the woods or another area away from your house. Set the can on its side, gently remove the lid, and give the snake time to slither out. Ask a friend, family member, or neighbour to help if you can. An extra pair of hands will make the process go faster and more smoothly. If you suspect there may be a snake in your attic, garage, basement or elsewhere in your house, lay out traps along the walls in these areas. Snakes will slither over or into the traps and get stuck. You—or animal control—can then safely remove the trapped snake and place it outside.  If you catch a non-venomous snake, place the trap in a bucket and take it outside...

Many maternity stores carry special bras and other undergarments to help support you as your body changes and as your breasts grow. Be sure that these undergarments are strong and supportive without being too tight. A good, supportive maternity bra will give you better posture and will reduce the frequency of back pains. A supportive bra will also make all of your other clothing look and fit better. However, a bra that is too tight might be uncomfortable or hurt your circulation.  Talk to a clerk at a reputable maternity shop if you require assistance finding a well-fitting bra. They should be able to measure you so you can get the support you need. Some women like wearing a sports bra after they have outgrown their regular bras but before they are ready for a maternity bra. Most maternity clothing is designed for feminine women. However, there are new companies emerging with comfortable pregnancy wear for women who identify as butch or masculine, for androgynous people, and for transgender men. Do not let the limitations of traditional maternity wear limit yourself: true grace is being yourself at all times. Tight clothing and accessories are not recommended for pregnant women. They can lead to discomfort and to a poor fit as the pregnancy continues. Moreover, pregnant women are more at risk of unsightly and potentially dangerous varicose veins, which are exacerbated by tight clothing. Make sure you buy clothing that is loose and flowing. Stay away from tight clothes, belts, socks, and undergarments.  Do not wear any slimming undergarments such as girdles or control-top pantyhose. As your pregnancy continues, there will be no way to hide your growing bust and belly. Nor should you: your body is something to embrace and enjoy. While your clothing will need to be loose and stretchy enough to be comfortable, there is no need for you to wear tents or muumuus. Try to find clothes that show your figure without cutting off your circulation. This could include:  Dresses made out of stretch jersey that fall below the...

TL;DR in English: Get strong, supportive undergarments. Buy clothing that expresses who you are. Wear loose clothing and accessories. Don't be afraid of your curves. Look for non-maternity clothing items you can wear during pregnancy. Buy a maternity band. Wear a single, dark color from head to toe. Accessorize carefully. Wear breathable fabrics. Treat yourself to some extra self-care.

When you’ve finished your first draft of your paper, step away from it for at least a little while. Waiting to revise for a day or two is ideal, although that may not be possible under a deadline. Getting your mind away from your essay is beneficial in that it allows you to come back at it with a fresh perspective. You’ll see errors and areas for expansion that you never would have considered before. This is another reason why it is best to not procrastinate when writing an essay of this type. You will need ample time to complete the process in a patient way in order to create your best possible work. As soon as you know that you’ll need to write an essay it is a good idea to approach a friend or classmate and ask them to spend a bit of time looking over your rough draft. Before you hand over your draft it is a good idea to let you reader know if there are any particular ‘trouble areas’ that you would like them to focus on. You might say, “Please focus on the word choice as that is a weakness of mine.” Once you’ve given your paper some down time and had another person look it over you will then need to start the personal revision process. Find a quiet place where you can sit down and closely read over your essay word-by-word. Look for both macro (large, major) and micro (smaller, details) issues and make these changes.  Some people find it helpful to print out your paper at this point and make your revisions on a hard copy. This can also protect you in the event that you experience any computer troubles. One strategy is to split your revisions into two parts: one revision for grammar and spelling and another to examine the organization and content of your paper. When you are writing a ‘split’ topic essay, such as a compare/contrast or cause/effect, it is particularly important to make your transitions clear and obvious to the reader. This will signal to your reader that you are switching from one area to another. Good transition words include, “therefore,” “consequently,” “thus,” and many others.

TL;DR in English: Leave it alone. Ask a friend to read it. Read it again and revise. Pay attention to the transitions.

Allow the meat to become room temperature before broiling. Broil the meat until it is cooked through.

The main reason your floor peeled up is due to inadequate preparation of the concrete below your epoxy. The concrete must be correctly prepared so the epoxy sticks to the concrete completely. To help with this, it may be easier to hire a professional who can clean and sand your concrete for you. You can find a contractor by searching online for “Floor epoxy installation contractors.”  Look at the reviews and ratings of different contractors in your area, and go with one that seems experienced with concrete work. This is a good idea if most of your floor is peeling up. You should remove the existing epoxy sections if you have patches missing from your flooring or notice certain areas beginning to peel. To do this, press a paint scraper against your flooring at a slight angle. Your epoxy should easily peel away with moderate pressure. If your epoxy is not coming off easily, move your scraper back and forth quickly to loosen it up. To prevent epoxy peeling, you must prepare your concrete properly. To do this, use a palm sander to mark your concrete so the epoxy sticks to it easier. Once you’ve removed the loose epoxy, plug in your hand sander, and place it on the floor over top the damaged area. Move your sander over the area in small circles about 1 ft (0.30 m) wide. Work on your section for about 30 seconds or so, then move any other damaged areas.  Your epoxy will not peel away if your floor is properly sanded. Palm sanders work great to sand the edges next to your walls. You can purchase or rent a hand sander from most home supply stores. Make sure you wear a respirator face mask, safety glasses, and ear protection when using your sander to prevent any breathing issues. For larger floor repairs, you can get the job done quicker if you use a floor buffer rather than palm sander. Start on an outer edge of your floor, and walk your floor buffer slowly until you reach the far side. Push the buffer as you walk, and the buffer will automatically sand down your flooring. When you reach a far side, pivot and start...

TL;DR in English: Hire a professional to help you fix your floor if you need assistance. Scrape away the peeling epoxy from your floor using a paint scraper. Use a palm sander and 60-grit sandpaper if repairing small areas. Use a floor buffer and 100-grit sandpaper if replacing most of your floor. Vacuum up the debris using a shop vac. Wipe down your floor with a clean rag dipped in denatured alcohol. Mix your epoxy properly following the instructions to prevent peeling. Reapply your epoxy over all of your floor. Let your epoxy dry for at least 24 hours. Apply a top coat to prevent any further peeling.

You can get someone to cooperate better by asking nicely than by demanding or threatening. Those with ADHD are even more sensitive to the threats or demands, as they tend to feel that they’re “always” messing up or in trouble. Regardless of your parenting style or personality, it’s extremely important that you keep the input ratio weighted to the positive side: A child with ADHD needs to feel that he or she is being praised more often than criticized. The positive input must significantly outweigh the negative input to counterbalance all the feelings of failure that is encountered in a typical day. Work overtime to “catch him being good” and praise every conceivable achievement, however silly you might feel at first. Whenever possible, invert house rules so they read as positives. For instance, instead of admonishing, “Don’t interrupt!” the rule can be reminded as “Wait your turn,” or “Allow your sister to finish what she was saying.” It might take practice to flip those negatives from “Don’t talk with your mouth full!” to “Finish what’s in your mouth before sharing.” But work to make it a habit. There’s an adage that applies well to children with ADHD, about the donkey moving faster for a carrot (reward) than a stick (punishment). Are you having trouble getting your child to bed on time? You can offer a stick (“Be ready for bed by 8 p.m. or else ….”) or you can find a carrot: “If you are ready for bed by 7:45 p.m., you can have 15 minutes to …” Buy a little bucket and stock it with “carrots.” These can be little rewards you can dole out when your child complies with a directive or behaves appropriately. Get a roll of stickers, a bag of 20 plastic army guys at a dollar store or a sack of 12 sparkly rings from the birthday party aisle. Get creative and add homemade coupons good for a popsicle, 10 minutes on the computer, playing a game on Mom’s phone, getting to stay up 15 minutes later, getting a bubble bath instead of taking a shower, etc. In time you can cut back to intermittent tangible rewards. Instead,...

TL;DR in English: Use positive input. Write house rules as positive statements. Use incentives. Keep a positive attitude.

If you put cold meat straight under a broiler, it won’t cook well. Take your meat out of the refrigerator beforehand and let it become room temperature before you begin. When your meat is almost room temperature, go ahead and preheat your broiler so that it will be nice and hot by the time you’re ready to place the meat in the oven. The amount of time your meat broils will depend on how you want it cooked and how thick it is. You will need to watch it closely. Flip the cuts over once the first side has browned to ensure even cooking. Don’t use a fork to flip the meat, since this will puncture it and allow its juices to escape. Use tongs, a spatula or some other utensil to flip the meat over.  The goal when broiling meat is to get a brown, crusty exterior and a juicy center.  Keep the meat or fish in the oven until it is cooked through and seared on the outside.

Make sure your dresser is dry before you apply the primer.

Apply a coat of primer before painting your dresser. Cover your dresser with traditional paint for a durable finish. Spray paint your dresser to make the process quicker.

Smile often, especially if you have a bright smile or you've been told you have a great smile. When your crush says something funny, laugh, of course. Just don't make it forced. Introducing humor of your own into a conversation is a great way to keep it positive and memorable, and helps keep those smiles flowing naturally. . Before you even speak to your crush, you can give off positive vibes by having good posture. Also remember to maintain eye contact during the conversation, stay relaxed, and use hand gestures confidently. If you're too quiet, your crush might not have a reason to be attracted to you or worse, might not even notice you. This can be difficult if you are an introvert, or if you are naturally a shy person. With that, keep in mind that overcoming shyness doesn’t necessarily mean talking a lot. It means speaking well and thoughtfully, and initiating conversation. It’s more about how you speak than how much you speak. There are a variety of good topics and ways to engage your crush in conversation.  Find topics to agree on or laugh about. This is a good principle of conversing with anyone: find at least one area of common ground or interest in your conversation. You might even try not to end a conversation until you’ve found at least one source of agreement. Stay current. Mention recent movies, books, TV shows, articles, or other entertainment topics she might be familiar with. The more mainstream, the more likely she is to know your reference. This is particularly helpful when you have a lull in conversation. Stay positive. Think of things that pretty much everyone likes: hobbies, pets, vacations, weekends, dessert, etc. Not every one of these topics will apply, but one or two probably will, and the more general you are, the more likely you are to hit on commonality. Then take the conversation more specific from there. Avoid negative or sensitive topics. Save your discussions of politics, religion, class, or race for another time. Obviously, you don’t want to mention a topic that could lead to...

The way in which you set up the speakers depends on how many you have; the most common setups are 2.1, 5.1, and 7.1, where the number before the decimal refers to the number of speakers and the ".1" refers to the use of a subwoofer.  2.1 is two front speakers and a subwoofer. 5.1 is two front speakers, a center speaker, two surround speakers, and a subwoofer. 7.1 is two front, one center, two surround, two back, and a subwoofer. On the back or side of your TV, you should see an "Audio Out" (or similar) section with at least one of the following types of audio output:   Optical - A hexagonal port. Optical audio is the newest and clearest type of audio, and most modern receivers support it.  HDMI - A thin hexagonal slot. HDMI supports both audio and video. Nearly all modern receivers support HDMI.  AV - White and red circular ports. These are used for basic audio. All receivers should support AV input. Unlike powered speakers, the average surround sound speaker can't project audio on its own. A receiver takes the sound from your TV and transmits it to the connected speakers via wires.  Most surround sound kits include a receiver. If you bought your surround sound set second-hand, you may have to buy the receiver separately. All speakers will connect to your receiver via AV cable, but the receiver can use optical, HDMI, or AV cables to connect to your TV. Make sure that your receiver's audio input matches your preferred audio output on your TV. You'll need speaker wire to attach the speakers to each other, AV cables (the red and white cables) to attach the speakers to the receiver, and an optical, HDMI, or AV set of cables to connect the receiver to the TV's audio ports. If you don't have the proper cables, you can find them online or in tech department stores. Online is usually cheaper. Each surround sound system will have a slightly different set of instructions detailing the best way to set it up. While you can follow general instructions to get decent sound out of your speakers, the best way to optimize them...

TL;DR in English: Examine your available speakers. Determine your TV's audio type. Make sure that you have an audio receiver. Verify that you have all of the cables that you need. Read your surround sound system's manual. Turn off and unplug your TV.

No matter which painting method you use, you'll need to add primer first to ensure your finish looks solid and bold. To add the primer, brush or spray a layer of primer paint onto the surface of the dresser, then check it after about 1 hour. If the paint is opaque, let it dry for another 2 hours. If it is not opaque, put on an additional layer of primer and check it again in 1 hour. Use white primer if you're adding a light-colored paint finish or grey primer if you're adding a dark-colored paint finish. Coat the entire dresser with a layer of acrylic or enamel paint and let it dry for between 2 and 4 hours. Then, apply a second coat of paint and, once dry, rub it gently using 240-grit sandpaper. Repeat the process until you have a minimum of 4 layers, sanding after each coat except the final one. For a standard matte finish, use water-based acrylic paint. For a longer-lasting and glossy finish, use enamel paint instead. Purchase a can of universal or wood spray paint in whatever color you desire. Hold the can between 8–12 in (20–30 cm) away from the dresser's surface, then spray on a coat of paint using large, sweeping motions. Let the paint dry for about 2 hours, then add another coat. Repeat the process until you're happy with the finish.  When using spray paint, make sure to wear a protective dust mask and safety gloves. Spray paint takes less time to apply than traditional paint, but it offers far less protection.

A standard razor will not give you detailed brows, and can be dangerous to use near your eyes. Instead purchase an eyebrow razor, whose small blade will give you the brows you desire. You can order an eyebrow razor online or purchase one at your local beauty supply store. You will get a closer shave if you apply shaving cream to the area of skin surrounding the eyebrow. Try starting with a dime-sized amount, and use more if necessary. Try applying the shaving cream when you get out of the shower. Only put shaving cream over the part of your eyebrow you want to shave. Use a cotton swab to wipe away any excess shaving cream so you can see what you're doing. Use your non-dominant hand to hold the skin around the eyebrow taut. This will help you get a closer, more detailed shave. Then use your dominant hand to begin shaping your eyebrow. It’s important that you stroke the razor in the same direction that your eyebrows grow. If you use the blade in the opposite direction, you can nick your skin and possibly create ingrown hairs. Instead, gently stroke the razor in the direction that your eyebrows grow. Also, avoid shaving above your eyebrows or they could look unnatural. You should check your progress in a mirror as much as possible. It is easy to accidentally shave off too much of your eyebrows. To prevent this from happening, step back and look in the mirror after completing each section of eyebrow. In order to maintain the look of your newly shaped eyebrows, you will want to shave them regularly. Try shaving about once a week, or more if your hair grows quickly.

TL;DR in English: Purchase a razor made specifically for eyebrows. Use a small amount of shaving cream. Hold your brow skin taut. Shave under your brow in the direction of hair growth. Check your progress frequently. Maintain your brow shape by shaving weekly.

There are numerous potential causes of a loss of sense of smell. These include damage to the mucous membranes lining the inside of your nose and obstructions to your nasal passage. Damage to mucous membranes can occur when you have a cold, flu, or suffer from hay fever or sinusitis. These are the most common causes of a loss of smell and are generally temporary.  Obstructions, such as nasal polyps, can cause problems with smell and may in some cases require surgery. Damage to your brain or nerves can also affect your sense of smell. A head injury can result in a loss of sense of smell. Before you consider going to the doctor, you can ask yourself some questions to begin the process of evaluating the deterioration of your sense of smell. The answers to these questions will help the diagnosis if you do go to a doctor. Start by asking when you first became aware of the loss of smell, and then ask yourself about the conditions under which this occurred.  Was this a one off experience or does it recur? If so, what links the times when it does recur? Were you suffering from hay fever at the time? Did you have a cold or flu at the time? Had you suffered a head injury? Were you exposed to pollutants or substances such as dust to which you may have had an allergic reaction? Short-term changes in your sense of smell are relatively common, if you have a cold for example, but if the problems persist and your smell doesn't return you should make an appointment with your doctor. If necessary your doctor will refer you to a specialist who will test you and give you a diagnosis. You may be asked to smell specific odours in a paper booklet, and the specialist may perform an endoscopic examination of your nose.   It may not seem the most serious health problem, but your sense of smell is important and you should visit the doctor if you have concerns. If you are unable to smell be especially careful with any gas appliances and be sure not to eat any food that has passed it's best before date. Problems with your chemical senses...

TL;DR in English: Understand the causes of a diminished sense of smell. Evaluate your sense of smell. Know when to visit a doctor.

Make sure you to include the time of your cocktail party on the invitation. Cocktail parties generally last only for about 2-3 hours. They can be held at any time between 4 P.M. and 10 P.M. Nothing is worse than showing up to a party underdressed.  Be explicit whether guests should show up in cocktail attire or in casual clothing. If it’s a weeknight party you could keep things casual, leaving fancier dress for weekend or special occasion cocktail parties. Since cocktail parties mean lots of standing and mingling make sure your guests aren’t tripping over bulky furniture. Place some seating groups in small clusters for those who prefer sitting.  Make sure to have a few tables around for guests to put down a drink while they’re chatting. Make up a playlist ahead of time and have it playing when guests arrive.  This will make the environment more welcoming and fill up any awkward silences until the party gets going. You don’t need fancy decorations to make your cocktail party look classy.  Simply put out a few accents, like vases of flowers, to jazz up your party. If your cocktail party is outdoors, string up some lights to set the mood and make sure your guests can see where they’re going. Provide a table for empty glasses or enlist a friend to help you go around and collect empty glasses as the party goes on.  This will make cleaning up the next day less of a headache. Have an empty dishwasher ready to receive all those dirty glasses.

heck your blood glucose level. Follow the same procedure each time to check and document your blood glucose levels.  Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water, and dry them with a clean towel.  Insert a test strip into your blood glucose meter device.  Use your lancet device to obtain a small drop of blood from the fleshy part of your finger.  Some newer devices can obtain a droplet from other areas such as your forearm, thigh, or fleshy areas on your hand.  Refer to the user manual to proceed properly according to the way your device works. Most devices are spring loaded that help to reduce the pain of pricking your skin.  Allow the blood droplet to contact the test strip at the indicated place either before or after it is inserted in the meter, again depending on the way your device works.  Your blood glucose level will appear in the window of your device. Record your blood glucose level on your log, along with the time of day you checked it. Checking your blood glucose is the primary tool for both you and your doctor to use in determining the most appropriate dose of insulin you need.  By keeping a log of your blood glucose levels, and other variables such as alterations in your diet or additional injections prior to meals or special events where you will consume sugary foods, your doctor can help to improve the control of your diabetes.  Take the log with you to each appointment for your doctor to review. Your doctor or diabetic healthcare provider advise you on the targets for your blood glucose levels specific to your condition.  General target ranges include 80 to 130mg/dl if taken before a meal, and less than 180mg/dl if taken one to two hours after a meal.  Remember that monitoring your blood glucose levels are extremely helpful in tailoring your overall treatment plan, but they are not a judgment of how well you are taking care of your condition. Do not let the results frustrate you.  Talk to your doctor if your levels are consistently higher than recommended so you and your doctor can adjust...

Monocrystalline solar panels are the best at converting light to energy because of their high silicon purity. That being said, monocrystalline solar panels are often the most expensive—this option is best if you want the highest productivity and price tag.  Monocrystalline solar panels cost between $300-700 USD per panel. Monocrystalline solar panels also produce the most waste when they're manufactured. If you're buying solar panels to go green, another material may suit your needs better. All solar panels are made of silicon. The higher the silicon purity, the better your panel will work, which is why monocrystalline panels are ideal. Polycrystalline solar panels utilize all of the silicon material they're manufactured with, making them the "greenest" panel option. Polycrystalline solar panels are also cheaper than monocrystalline panels, though they are not quite as efficient.  Polycrystalline solar panels usually cost between $200-500 USD per panel. Polycrystalline solar panels do not do as well in warm temperatures. Hot climates with temperatures regularly above around 80 °F (27 °C) are not suitable for polycrystalline panels. Thin-film panels are cost-efficient to make and are usually the cheapest option. They also, however, degrade faster than other panels. Choose thin-film if you need a simple solar panel that may need more repairs over the years.  Polycrystalline solar panels usually cost between $175-300 USD per panel. Thin-film panels usually need the most space and are less practical for smaller homes. They may need up to twice as much room as a mono- or polycrystalline solar panel with the same energy output. Amorphous solar panels are a subset of thin-film solar panels. Generally, they are smaller than other thin-film panels. Through a process called "stacking," which involves multiple layers of amorphous silicon cells, these panels can reach high levels of efficiency, around twice as high as other thin-film solar panels.  Amorphous solar panels are more expensive than other thin-film panels....

TL;DR in English: Choose monocrystalline solar panels for efficiency. Go with polycrystalline solar panels for an environmentally-friendly option. Buy thin-film solar panels for the most budget-friendly option. Buy amorphous solar panels for smaller homes.

Fill a bucket with warm water and add 1⁄4  c (59 mL) of ammonia and 1⁄4  c (59 mL) of baking soda. Soak a sponge in the cleaning solution and use it to scrub your porcelain surface. Pay special attention to areas where stains are more pronounced. Keep scrubbing until you notice the stain diminishing.  Be sure to wear rubber gloves while cleaning with ammonia. After you finish, rinse the porcelain well to remove any remaining ammonia. If rinsing with soap doesn’t work, you may need to try something a bit more hardcore. Spray some bleach (or a cleaner containing bleach) on your porcelain item and let it sit for a few minutes. Then scrub it with your sponge and rinse the rest of the bleach off.  Remember that bleach can be damaging to clothing and other fabrics, so try not to get the bleach on anything other than the sponge and the porcelain. Be sure to wear rubber gloves when scrubbing with the bleach product. ” If the bleach doesn’t get rid of all the stains, try using a product called “Bar Keepers Friend.” It is specifically formulated to get rid of rust and lime stains in kitchens and bathrooms. Simply pour a bit of the cleaning solution directly on the stains and let it sit for a few minutes. Then spend some time scrubbing the rest of the stains out. You can purchase Bar Keepers Friend online and at most home improvement stores.

TL;DR in English: Try an ammonia mixture. Use a bleach product. Apply “Bar Keepers Friend.

Having more energy will make you a much more playful person. One of the reasons people stop being playful is because they're just too tired to be up for playing games or taking the world less seriously. So, try to eat three balanced meals, get enough rest, spend time socializing, and avoid anything that will lead you to be generally too exhausted to even smile. There are a million ways to be more energetic, from changing your socks in the middle of the day to wearing brighter colors to project more energy. This is another key way to be more playful. When you were a kid, you must have said yes to most of the new things in front of you; as you grew older, you got more used to your habits and routine and became less interested in new activities. So, if you want to be more playful, say yes to more invitations, and say yes the next time someone wants to go to the zoo with you, teach you how to juggle, or take a ceramics class. Only good will come of it.  Make a goal of saying yes at least 30% more in your every day life. Stop with the excuses. The next time you say no to something, ask yourself what's really stopping you. Is it tiredness? Laziness? The fear of trying something new? Getting out of your comfort zone will allow you to become a truly playful person. Do something that completely scares you, whether it's taking swimming lessons, trying Ethiopian food, or hanging out with a group of people who seem to have nothing in common with you. Getting out of your comfort zone will teach you that you have more to learn and do than you thought, and that the very things that make you uncomfortable can be the most rewarding of all.  You'll never be truly playful if you do the same five old things every week. Try to do something that makes you uncomfortable at least once a week. Hang out with people who challenge you to try new things. A lot of people aren't playful enough simply because they don't have the time to be. Make sure you set at least three hours a week aside in your schedule for "play time" -- you can even...

TL;DR in English: Be more energetic. Say yes more. Get out of your comfort zone. Make the time for playfulness. Don't let other people get you down. Live in the moment. Smile more.

Choose a time when you are free to soak for at least 1 hour. The more recently you put on your self-tanner, the better; it's a bit harder to take off when it's set. Consider this an excuse for an hour of me time! This part is totally optional. Soaking for longer can loosen your self-tanner's jaws, but exfoliates and toners work by themselves, too. If you don't have one, you can make one yourself! The sugar beads lift up your top layer of skin, greatly reducing that unfortunate color you've acquired. And it leaves your skin silky smooth!  Use an exfoliating mitt to expedite the process and double your efficacy. A pumice stone is generally to hard on your skin, so it's best to stick to the mitt or your loofah. Then apply a gradual self-tanner, if you'd like. You know, one of the kinds that is purposefully slow-going. It can help even out what's left of your original experience. The longer you can keep it on the better, but aim for at least 10 minutes. 30 if you can tolerate the boredom of just standing there! This is a good method if you're just too dark or too orange, as it will reduce the difference between your natural tone and your tanned tone overall. These will be your biggest priorities, since they can't be easily covered with clothing. They are also resilient areas that are not prone to irritation when a toner is used. If you have a toner with alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) or beta hydroxy acids (BHAs), use it. These acids tend to be very effective at correcting skin discoloration. Yep, there's definitely such a thing and they generally cost around $15. They come in the forms of pads or creams and are pretty self-explanatory. They'll be effective, but not necessarily any more so than the stuff you already have in your bathroom/kitchen. Only shell out the bills if for some reason you feel compelled to. You should notice significant improvement, but if you still see some discoloration or streaks, continue with regular baths, baking soda scrubs and lemon juice and toner applications. No self-tanner is that...

Italians rarely wear socks with sandals or white socks beneath trousers. On the other hand, they typically wear socks with closed shoes. They always match the colour of the sock to the colour of the shoe. When Italians do wear socks, it’s often very short socks not knee length or calf length socks. These socks are sometimes called “fantasmi,” which means invisible. This is especially important if you’re in a big city where safety could be an issue. Advertising that you are a tourist could make you a target.  The best way to look like a tourist fast? Wear a fanny pack or money belt. This just advertises that you’re walking around with money. Lugging around a backpack can also get you pegged as a tourist. You will want to carefully store important documents, and credit cards, in an inside pocket or front pocket so someone doesn’t pick your pocket. T-shirts, tennis shoes, and any shirt or sweatshirt with a slogan on it will probably make you look like a tourist. Slouchy and scuffed is out; fitted and impeccable is in. Nice fabrics go a long way. Italian fashion sense varies depending on what portion of the country you’re in. It’s a mistake to think there’s just one way to dress in Italy.  The main geographic differences can be found between the south and the north of Italy. Remember that Milan is in the north, and it’s a sophisticated city that is a major hub of the global fashion industry. The style there would be sophisticated and reliant on designer name brands.  In the south, such as in Rome, there would be more adherence to local traditions and trends that are not as contingent on the fashion industry. Dress more formally if you’re visiting a big city instead of a rural country town. Another difference to consider is that the north gets pretty cold in the winter, although it’s warm during the summer months, whereas the south is pretty warm all year round. In the summer, it can reach temperatures of 35 degrees Celsius in Rome. That's in the 90s in Fahrenheit. It can be difficult to predict the spring...

TL;DR in English: Don't wear socks with sandals. Avoid the most common tourist looks. Dress differently based on geography.

It can take days or weeks for the thickness of your blood to change due to dietary and lifestyle habits alone. Start making these changes as early as possible to maximize the potential impact they have on your blood.  Talk to your doctor before altering your diet. They'll be able to give you specific instructions about any dietary changes you should make before your surgery. Preoperative instructions from your doctor may include not eating garlic, cayenne, flax seeds, green tea, tomatoes, eggplants, and potatoes. These foods can affect anesthesia and the thickness of your blood.  You may also be asked to avoid foods that are known to cause allergies, like nuts, eggs, milk, fish, wheat, and soy. Vitamin K plays an important role in maintaining a normal thickness of the blood. As long as you're eating a well-balanced diet, you should be getting enough vitamin K. Make sure your diet includes foods like:  Leafy greens Meats Dairy Alcohol tends to thin the blood and cause more bleeding to occur, so you should avoid consuming alcohol as much as possible at least one week before surgery. An occasional glass of wine or some other alcoholic beverage relatively low in proof may not necessarily cause much of a problem for someone whose blood has a normal consistency, but even that can cause adverse effects for someone whose blood is thinner than average. Your safest option is to avoid alcohol completely until after the surgery is over. Proper hydration is an essential component of healthy blood. If you're dehydrated, the volume of blood pumping through your circulatory system can decrease, causing it to thin out have difficulty coagulating.  Excessive hydration can also cause your blood to become too thin, however. As you drink more, more fluid enters into your blood, thinning it out. It's best to maintain standard, healthy levels of hydration prior to surgery to avoid complications. Try to consume eight 8-oz (250-ml) glasses of fluid each day. Salicylates blocks your body's ability to absorb vitamin K, thereby...

TL;DR in English: Alter your diet one to two weeks in advance. Eat a well-balanced diet so you're getting enough vitamin K. Stop drinking alcohol. Keep yourself adequately hydrated. Avoid salicylates. Control your vitamin E. Avoid taking supplements unless they're approved by your doctor. Limit your exercise routine.

There is a black line at the bottom of your pool lane. The perpendicular line lets you know that the wall is two feet away. You can use the black T to let yourself know it's time to start executing your turn. This can be hard to judge because it all depends on the length of your legs. Depending on how long your legs are, you would normally do two strokes after the T, then do your turn. If you're very tall or on the short side, adjust accordingly. As your arm enters the water, tuck your chin and keep kicking your legs to propel you over. Bring in both arms and position your hands at your sides.  Do not start rotating your body during this step. As you start to somersault, breath out hard through your nose to prevent any water getting up it. Keep your elbows close to your body. Make sure your knees are close to your chest. If you don't tuck your knees close enough, your feet will take too long to get to the wall. The tighter you tuck your body, the faster your somersault will be. After completing the somersault, release your elbows and extend your arms in the direction you just came from. Put your hands together. Your body should form a straight line from your torso to the tips of your fingers.  At this point, your legs are still tucked. Make sure you are not rotating in the water back onto your belly. You should be on your back at this point.

Cut 14 ounces (397 grams) of boneless, skinless chicken thighs into chunks.  Season the chicken with salt and pepper, to taste, and sprinkle with two tablespoons of flour.  Melt one tablespoon of butter over a skillet and add the chicken chunks.  Place the chicken chunks in a single layer.  Don’t allow them to pile up on each other. After five minutes of frying, turn the chicken chunks over and allow them to fry on their opposite side for another five minutes. Once the chicken is finished, place it in a bowl.  Put 8.8 ounces (250 grams) of sliced button mushrooms in the pan and sauté them for five minutes.  Flip them over on their opposite side for another five minutes.  Add one small diced onion and sauté it along with the mushrooms. Deglazing is the process of diluting or removing food residue before making a sauce.  To deglaze the pan in anticipation of making chicken stroganoff, pour ¼ cup (60 milliliters) of vermouth in the skillet along with the onions and mushrooms.  Turn up the heat and allow the vermouth to boil until it is almost entirely evaporated. Pour one cup (240 milliliters) of chicken stock, one tablespoon of tomato paste, one bay leaf, and five sprigs of thyme, and the fried chicken you plated earlier.  Cover over medium-low heat for 10 minutes.  After 10 minutes, remove the lid and allow to simmer for another 10 minutes. The sauce should be thick and red. Slowly scoop spoonfuls of the chicken sauce into 1/3 cup (80 milliliters) of sour cream.  Continue to add the chicken sauce to the sour cream until the mixture is lukewarm.  Then, transfer the diluted sour cream into the skillet with the rest of the chicken, mushroom, and sauce.  Stir to combine.  Once the sour cream has been mixed into the sauce, serve the chicken stroganoff.  This chicken stroganoff tastes great over rice, egg noodles, or another pasta of your choice. Add salt and pepper to taste.

TL;DR in English: Prepare your chicken. Prepare your mushrooms and onions. Deglaze the pan. Make the stroganoff sauce. Add the sour cream.

Thoroughly wash the entire plate with hot, soapy water, then dry the dish completely with a clean dish towel.  The adhesive may not stick to a plate well enough if there is any dirt, grime, or oil on the back of that plate. For best results, use a scouring pad on the back of the plate in the general area the disc will be placed on. Adhesive plate hangers work especially well with plates that are strangely shaped or plates with notably thick rims. You can use them with any shape or size, though. Adhesive plate hangers come in five basic sizes. Make sure that you choose a hanger size that will work for your specific plate. The five sizes are:  1-1/4 inch (3 cm), for plates up to 4 inches (10 cm) in diameter 2 inches (5 cm), for plates up to 6 inches (15 cm) in diameter 3 inches (7.5 cm), for plates up to 8 inches (20 cm) in diameter 4 inches (10 cm), for plates up to 12 inches (30 cm) in diameter 5-1/2 inches (14 cm), for plates up to 6.5 lbs (3 kg) in weight Dip your fingertip in a little water, then rub your wet finger over the adhesive side of the disc. Wait three to seven minutes, or until the adhesive becomes sticky. Look at the front of the plate to determine how you want the dish to hang. Once you determine where the center top will be, press the adhesive side of the disc firmly onto the back of the plate at the center top.  Press firmly over the entire adhesive disc to ensure a tight seal. You should let the adhesive dry overnight before you hang the plate. Test the bond by gently tugging on the hook. If the disc starts to peel away, the bond is not strong enough. If the disc stays firmly attached to the plate, however, it should be safe to use. Figure out where you want the plate to hang and lightly mark that spot with pencil. Hammer a nail into that spot. At least half the nail should be inside the wall, but there should be enough nail hanging outside of the wall for the plate hook to rest on.  Make sure that the nail you use has a large head to "catch" the hook on so that the plate will not fall off....

TL;DR in English: Clean the plate. Choose the right size hanger. Wet the disc. Attach the disc to the back of the plate. Hammer a nail into the wall. Hang the plate.

Some funeral announcements will say “In lieu of flowers…” and ask for a donation to be made to a favorite charity or a personal cause. Some people choose to send flowers in addition to making a donation. This decision is up to you, but when in doubt, respecting the wishes of the family is always appreciated. The most appropriate flower arrangements can vary depending on the faith, cultural beliefs, or religious traditions of the deceased and the bereaved. What is appropriate in one culture may not be so in another, so it is important to consider this before purchasing flowers for a funeral. Here are some suggestions for more common religious affiliations:  Catholic and Protestant Christian: there are no specific recommendations or styles to avoid; nearly all colors and types flowers and floral arrangements are acceptable. Mormon: while most flowers are acceptable, avoid arrangements with crucifixes or crosses. Greek Orthodox: while most flowers are accepted, white flowers are often chosen as a preferred option. Jewish: flowers are not typically displayed at a funeral home where the service for the deceased is held; instead, it is more common to send flowers to the family members’ homes. However, you should not take flowers to a Jewish home sitting Shiva.  Baha’i: most types of flower arrangements are acceptable; there are no specific recommendations or styles to avoid. Buddhist: most types of flower arrangements are acceptable; there are no specific recommendations or styles to avoid. Hindu: instead of floral arrangements, garlands are more commonly seen at Hindu funerals. Ask the funeral home about the possibility of sending a garland instead. Muslim: the acceptability of flowers at an Islamic funeral varies across the faith, and therefore it is important to ask about the desires of the bereaved before sending them. Different types of floral arrangements are sent by individuals with different familial proximity to the deceased. Consider this when choosing an arrangement of flowers to send.  Choose a casket...

Choose an old shirt to turn into a crop top. Identify a crop top length.

Place a spoonful of icing on the center of the cupcake. Use an icing spatula (or palette knife) to spread the icing around the top of the cupcake, out to the edges. Smooth the top with the spatula as desired. For a smooth look, run the spatula edge across the top. For a fluffier look, lightly touch the iced surface with the spatula blade and lift up. For a twist to your ordinary frosted cupcake, pour ganache, melted chocolate, or icing over the tops of your cupcakes. To do this, let the cupcakes cool completely. Begin pouring over the center of the cupcake. You can totally cover the cupcake or cover just the top and let the topping drip over the sides.  Set them on a cooling rack positioned over top a cookie sheet. The cookie sheet will catch any drippings. Let the cupcakes cool to allow the topping to set. The same method can be used with warmed icing. The bottom sides of cupcakes are easiest to cover with fondant. Use a spatula to spread a thin layer of buttercream frosting over the surface. Roll out the fondant to the desired size to cover the cupcake, keeping the thickness to about 1⁄8 inch (0.3 cm). Lay the fondant over the cupcake and smooth it out. Cut off any excess frosting at the bottom. It's easiest to trim with a spatula. Use your hands to continue to smooth the surface of the fondant. Now that cupcake baking is such a trend, you can find just about anything. You can find any image in the form of buttercream, fondant, gum paste, royal icing, or candy. Any. Just go online and take a look! (Grab your credit card.) Want to put a teeny sugary baby on top of your cupcake? No problem. How about a television? Can do. A harvest of cornstalks? Yep. Seriously. The cupcake world has accepted every challenge and delivered.

TL;DR in English: Ice cupcakes the traditional way. Pour ganache or candy melts over cupcakes. Create a smooth canvas with fondant. Invest in some cupcake add-ons.

Be sure to turn off the computer and remove all connected plugs. Open the chassis of your computer and locate the compatible key slot for your video card. Line up the video card to the compatible key slot on the motherboard and push down.  PCI Express cards may feature a holding clip used to secure video cards in place. Pull the clip back and hold onto the video card by its edges to line up with the keys on the motherboard then push the card gently into place until it is seated.  If you are upgrading from an older video card, remove the previous card unless it is being used with a cross-connection method described for either Nvidia or AMD video cards. Plug in power using either power connectors or SATA power cables. If the video card requires more than one power source, be sure to use a different cable track from your power supply. You may also use converter cables if you have a different connection type that leads to your power supply. Your video card will come with drivers and software designed to control your video card’s behavior. You can obtain the software from a disk that is bundled with the video card or from the manufacturer’s website. Follow the instructions provided by the video card manufacturer on how to install the software. Certain programs such as games may require additional setup to be configured for higher resolutions and enhanced features. Your video card may also need to be identified by the software or game in order to display video.

TL;DR in English: Connect the video card to your PC. Install and configure drivers. Configure software settings.

You can crop just about any type of shirt or sweatshirt. Choose a top that fits you well or that is a bit loose if you want to add ties in the front, or go with a tight, stretchy top if you want something that will be form-fitting.  Try making a crop top out of a t-shirt, an old button-down dress shirt, or a form-fitting tank top.  Make sure to choose a shirt you are okay with cutting up! It will look very different after you are finished with it. Put on the shirt you will be using and stand in front of a mirror. Fold the bottom of the shirt up and play around with different lengths until you find one you like. A typical length is a few inches above the belly button, but you can make the length shorter or longer if you like. Use a fabric pen or chalk to mark the length that you want the shirt to be. You may want to have a friend help you with this part. Ask them to trace a line going all the way around the top where you want to crop it.

Take the soot-stained fabric outdoors and gently shake off any excess soot. Be careful not to shake too vigorously so that you don’t make the stain bigger or spread the soot around any more than is necessary. If you shake the fabric too vigorously, you also risk grinding the soot into the fabric – ultimately making it harder to clean. For fabrics stained with soot, try rinsing them with cold water to remove the stain. Turn the fabric inside out and run it under cool water to get as much of the soot out as possible. Try not to spread the stain further or grind the soot into the fabric with your hands. Try to let the cold water do its job and avoid touching the soot during the process. If you have soot stains on fabric materials like clothing, you can try soaking them overnight in laundry detergent. Fill a bucket with warm water and a small amount of laundry detergent and submerge the items. Let the fabric soak for at least six hours. If the soot-stained items can be bleached without being ruined, add a few drops of bleach to the detergent/water mixture. Use the hottest possible setting on your laundry machine to wash the soot-stained fabric. Use bleach (or color safe bleach, if the fabric requires it) when you run the washing machine.  Make sure that you have done all you can to minimize the soot stain before you actually wash the fabric. Using several methods together will be much more effective at removing the stain than just attempting one method. Don’t put the fabric in the dryer until you have checked to make sure the soot stain was completely removed. Otherwise, this could permanently set the stain in the fabric.

TL;DR in English: Shake off excess soot. Run the fabric under cool water. Soak soot-stained materials overnight. Wash the fabric in hot water.

Because the impact on language and communication varies from person to person (depending upon which area of the brain has been damaged), the approach of the speech therapist will vary depending upon your specific presentation. He or she will focus on finding ways to help you to more effectively manage your condition in social situations, and to preserve as many of your communication abilities as possible.  Note that, while speech therapists can help you to manage your condition, they cannot cure it. The actual "pathophysiology" (the damage to your brain) is not reversible and will only continue to worsen with time, as this is what the disease entails. Given that the pathophysiology of  progressive aphasia is not reversible, and will only continue to progress with time, it is important to explore alternate modes of communication that can help you to cope. Your speech therapist may suggest non-verbal strategies for communication, such as gesturing or pointing, which many patients find helpful when their condition becomes more severe. One of the key elements for people as their progressive aphasia worsens is finding a community of people who understand the condition, and who can be there as an emotional and social support network. Connecting with an Aphasia Community Group may also provide you with insights and strategies as to how to better manage your condition, and to optimize your communication and interactions with those around you, as you will be exposed to people who are faced with similar problems in day-to-day life. As their condition progresses, some people carry ID cards with them and/or papers with information about their diagnosis that they can give to others. This way, if communication is a significant challenge, it can help others to understand and hence smooth the interaction as much as possible.
