Be careful about your family history. If you have a family history of EDS, talk to your doctor about the diagnosis.

Talk to a doctor. Look for a family connection. Have genetic testing.

It is especially important to avoid groups which target co-workers and management: negativity drains you of energy and blocks happiness and positive thoughts. Work on being friendly with everyone instead of joining a group of just three or four people and alienating everyone else. You don't want to join a clique and then find that the people in it turn on you. Instead, try to be on good terms with everyone without becoming stuck in one social circle; your happiness will grow as a result. Though you may feel temporary satisfaction when you're "in" with a group of people, in the long run, it will lead to drama you don't want. It's important to speak up when you think that something in your workplace can be improved. However, it's equally important to point out when your coworkers or company is doing something right. If you thought everything at your workplace was done incorrectly, then you wouldn't be working there, would you? Make sure to speak up to give praise when it's needed so that you stay upbeat and make yourself aware of all the good things your job has to offer. If you're only complaining and being a negative Nancy all the time, then you'll get a bad reputation. One main way to be happy in your workplace is to make friends with your colleagues, so you want to maintain a good reputation. Studies show that one of the best ways to be almost as happy at work as you are away from work is to be friends with your coworkers. Though you may feel like you have enough friends, you should get to know your coworkers so that you're excited to see them every day and that you feel more connected in the workplace. You should give your coworkers your time, make small talk with them, and work on building closer relationships. Though you can't be best friends with everyone, you should seek friendships with the people who really matter to you.   Find opportunities to socialize at your workplace. Go grab coffee or hang out in the break room with your coworkers, or even step out for lunch with them. Try to isolate yourself...

TL;DR in English: Steer clear of cliques. Offer praise as well as criticism. Be friends with your coworkers. Watch your body language. Avoid negative people at all costs. Don't overextend yourself.

Poor social skills are a major symptom of small dog syndrome. Dogs who are overly coddled, or whose behavior is not corrected, never develop social skills. Pay attention to how your dog interacts with other dogs, whether in your home or when going out.  A small dog may see himself as the boss. He may bully other dogs to get his way. He may, for example, chase other dogs away from the food bowl, or growl at dogs attempting to get on the couch with him. Your dog may be very aggressive on walks. He may bark, lunge, or growl at passing dogs. Small dogs are often ignored when they disobey rules, leading them to have poor impulse control in the home. Your dog may behave poorly in general due to the double standard for behavior many owners have for small dogs.  Does your dog beg for food? While many dogs beg for food, dogs with small dog syndrome are particularly persistent. They may whine, bark, and stare until they get their way, despite being told to quiet down. In extreme cases, a small dog may start refusing his own food in favor of table scraps. A small dog may have a general disregard for household rules. He may not listen when he's told to get down, get into things frequently, and have poor impulse control in general. How does your dog react to guests? A small dog may ignore guests who do not want to be jumped on or licked. A small dog may also be aggressive with guests. He may growl when guests come in, and may occasionally nip at people. Much like other problems, this stems from poor socialization and a lack of boundaries early on. Dogs with small dog syndrome may be particularly difficult to housebreak. Dogs generally pee to assert dominance and control in a home. As small dog syndrome can spoil a dog, urinating inside the home is a common symptom. Your dog will not just urinate in your home. Your dog will also pee when visiting the homes of friends or family members.

TL;DR in English: Watch how your dog interacts with other dogs. Look for frequent disobedience. Consider how your dog treats other people. Think about whether your dog is housebroken.

If you think that you or a loved one might have EDS, talk about your concerns with a physician. Your regular doctor may be able to advise you but will more likely refer you to a specialist in genetic diseases. Expect a series of questions about medical and family histories, a thorough exam, and a blood test.  Set up an appointment. Before you see the doctor, think about what symptoms you have seen or experienced. The doctor may ask if your or your loved one’s joints are overly flexible, if the skin is stretchy, or if the skin heals poorly. She will also probably ask about any medications the patient is taking. Since EDS is a genetic syndrome, it gets passed down in families. This means that you or a loved one is more likely to have the mutations if a close family member had them, as well. Think carefully and be prepared to answer questions about your family history.  Did any of your or your loved one’s relatives have a diagnosed case of EDS? Or, did they have symptoms like the ones you’re seeing? Do you know of any relatives who died suddenly from a ruptured blood vessel or organ? Recall that this is one of the most serious complications of vascular EDS and may indicate an undiagnosed case. Your doctor will try to diagnose by type, finding the EDS subtype that most closely matches the patient’s symptoms. Usually a specialist can make a diagnosis on the basis of the skin, joints, and a family history. However, they can also use genetic tests to confirm EDS or the specific subtype that is present. A DNA test can pinpoint the problem and show the specific genes that are mutated.  Genetic testing can be done to confirm Vascular, kyphoscoliosis, Arthrochalasia, Dermatosparaxis, and sometimes Classical EDS. For testing, expect to be referred to a clinical geneticist or genetic counselor. You’ll then give a sample of either blood, saliva, or skin for laboratory testing. Genetic tests are not always 100% accurate. Some people recommend that they be done conservatively to confirm rather than rule out a diagnosis.

As independent contractors, Uber drivers' ability to make money comes from the amount of work they're able to secure during a shift. Making your driver wait undermines their ability to earn their wage and may make them more reluctant to give you a 5-star rating. Limit the amount of time you make your driver wait by being ready to hop in the car as soon as they arrive at your location.  Try to gather your belongings before requesting the Uber. When Uber sends you a notification that your driver is approaching, make your way to the pickup location (assuming that the location is the street outside of your address - if it's farther away than this, plan accordingly so that you can be there as soon as your driver arrives). Some Uber drivers work shifts of up to 19 hours at a time. Remember that any job comes with stresses that can be intense, and that your driver will appreciate you treating them with kindness and consideration even if they're working more manageable schedules than this.  Practice patience with your driver by keeping in mind that they're doing their best to get you to your destination as quickly and as comfortably as possible. If you have concerns with your driver's quality of service, try to bring them up non-confrontationally, or wait until the end of your journey to report them to Uber instead of bringing them up directly. Uber allows you to tip through the app, but you can give your driver a cash tip if you'd like. Consider carrying cash during your Uber rides to give your driver after pleasant service, and they will likely reciprocate by giving you a high star rating. Think of it as a "five-for-five" deal. Uber drivers offer up a valuable asset of their private property to service rides to customers. Remember that an Uber driver's car is different from a train or bus in this sense, and the person who uses the vehicle the most is the same person who has to maintain it. When riding in an Uber car, adopt a "leave no trace" policy whereby you commit to leaving the car in as good of a state as it...

TL;DR in English: Be ready to leave as soon as your Uber arrives. Be kind to your driver. Tip your driver. Respect your driver's vehicle. Don't act intoxicated.

Find out if your church follows the tradition of collecting donations from the congregation and distributing them to the less fortunate on Boxing Day. Ask if they need any assistance. If they do, donate your time. Embody the spirit of charitability by giving and finding organizations who need volunteers for programs that day. Collect food and/or donations for a food drive. Assist in a soup kitchen. Donate blood. Contribute to improving the lives of others. Since charity is needed all year round, use Boxing Day to plan your calendar for the upcoming year. Search online for future events in which you could be of assistance. Plan a budget so you can donate to your favorite charities on a regular basis. If you haven’t already, give a holiday bonus to your doorman, postal worker, delivery person, and anyone else who provides you with regular service. Although this used to be a strong tradition that originated back when house servants lived onsite with their employers, offering holiday bonuses on Boxing Day itself has waned since carrying over to the modern era. Since many of the people you wish to tip may have the day off, be sure to tip them ahead of time. Buy a stuffed bird and a birdcage light enough to carry. Dress up in fancy women’s fashion. Parade around town and ask for donations from passersby on the street, customers at pubs and restaurants, or by knocking on houses from door to door.  Originally actual wrens were hunted down and killed to use as props, but stick to using a stuffed bird instead to avoid upsetting people today. In earlier days, donations were usually collected to fund a dance on the same night. Although some localities might still have this tradition, many collections are now donated to charity. “Good King Wenceslas” is a popular carol that’s specific to Boxing Day. The album “Bells of Dublin” by the Irish band The Chieftains also features three Boxing Day carols: “The St. Stephen’s Day Murders,” “The Arrival of the Wren Boys” and “A Wren in the Furze.”

TL;DR in English: Volunteer for church functions. Donate your time elsewhere. Plan ahead. Tip people who provide you service. Be a Wren boy.

Having hands-on experience with wedding planning will give you practical knowledge that you can use for your business.  You’re likely to get references from colleagues and suggestions for clients as well. This will supplement any formal knowledge you have and give you practical experience working in the field.  Your boss can also act as a reference for you with potential clients. Internships are often unpaid. The experience you gain will be more valuable than a paycheck. Your boss could wind up a long-term mentor as you rise through the profession. It might be useful to take a job with a smaller company at first. This will give you the chance to work in all aspects of wedding planning and greatly increase your knowledge. This will give you the valuable hands-on experience you need -- to say nothing of the chance to prospect for clients at the same time.  Use these friends and family members as references.  Be sure to take photos of any event you work on for your portfolio and future marketing efforts. Use these images on your website or in brochures. Having a list of people whom you can ask questions, draw upon for services, or who are interested in hiring you will put your business on the path to success even in its infancy.  You can meet appropriate people almost anywhere, especially at industry conferences, wedding expos, vendor shops, and, of course, at weddings. Never stop practicing interpersonal skills as you develop your network.

TL;DR in English: Gather experience as a wedding planner. Intern with a wedding planner or event-planning firm. Plan events for friends and family at no cost. Network with other wedding planners and potential clients and vendors.

Use one to two inches of water per week. Be careful not to over-water or drown your blueberry plants. The first year that you plant the blueberries, clip all of the blooms off of the plants. This will allow the plants to become resilient before they start producing fruit. Pruning also removes crowded or stagnant stems and allows productive parts of the plants to grow stronger.  Every year thereafter, remove low growth around the base of the bush by clipping at an angle at the node of each branch. Remove any dead branches and/or twigs from the plants, as well as any discolored, blotchy growths. Prune lowbush blueberries by cutting the stems to ground level, but do not prune the full plant, as the pruned stems will not bear fruit the next season. To ensure your plant produces each year, only prune half of the plant each year. The pruning process should eliminate about 1/3 to 1/2 of the wood growth on each plant. Thin out the branches further if necessary. If your blueberries grow less than a foot annually (or less than 4 inches for lowbush plants), try using a natural fertilizer to boost the plant's productivity. If possible, use an organic fertilizer to avoid hurting the roots and effectively deliver nitrogen to the blueberries.  Seed meals such as soybean and alfalfa are good organic options. Use 1/4 cup to 2 cups of fertilizer per plant depending on the size. Blood meal and cottonseed meal also work well as fertilizer. Fertilize the plants in early spring and again in late spring for best results. Always water well after fertilizing. Remember, if the pH level is higher than 5.0, you can enrich the soil to make it more acidic using acid compost or planting mix. If the soil pH is above 4.5, mix in granular sulfur to lower the pH level. Do this in late July or early August. Some varieties, including rabbiteye, take a bit longer to fully ripen. Each year, the time of harvest will vary slightly depending on climate conditions.

TL;DR in English: Water the plants. Prune the plants every winter. Fertilize the plants. Test the pH level of the soil every two years. Harvest your blueberries.

A dehydrated dog with the energy to do so will typically seek water to drink. If your dog is dehydrated, you may notice unusual behavior, such as restlessness or pacing, as if looking for water.  Your dog may repeatedly lick its lips and/or have an anxious facial expression if it is unable to find enough water.  Some dehydrated dogs will also lie with their nose resting against their water bowl. The classic dehydration test that you've probably seen the vet do at the animal clinic is lifting the dog's scruff. What this test actually measures is the skin's elastic recoil, which decreases with dehydration. To do this test yourself, take the following steps:  Locate the dog's scruff. This is the loose skin over the dog's shoulders or at the back of its neck. Elevate the scruff. Grasp the skin and gently raise it two to three inches above the dog's back in a vertical direction. Release the scruff and observe. Fully hydrated skin springs back instantaneously. When dehydration is present, the skin is less elastic, which means it will not fall back as quickly. If the skin takes more than two seconds to return to normal, the dog is dehydrated. Gums are a good indicator of early dehydration. Normal gums are moist and shiny, much like our own. Dehydrated animals often have dry or tacky feeling gums, because they produce less saliva. Be aware that anxious or frightened animals may also have dry gums. Make sure your dog is relaxed when you check the gums or you can be misled. If a dog does not take in enough water, its body will automatically take steps to preserve fluid. In this situation, it either will not urinate because its bladder is empty, or the urine it produces will be very concentrated. Concentrated urine is a deep yellow color.  This occurs because the dog's kidneys are working hard to recycle water in the body and hold onto it.  Take note if your dog seems to be urinating less than usual or if its urine is an unusual color. If your dog seems healthy and there is a simple explanation for your dog's condition,...

Back in the days of yore, parents and children wrapped their tree around and around, passing the cord from one set of hands to another. While you’re more than welcome to this method to keep tradition alive, a more efficient way is to wrap from top to bottom, only tackling one side at a time. For the record, this works best if you’re only dealing with one main color of lights. Otherwise, you may need more strands of your second color to balance your tree's overall look. Nestle the very last bulb at the top of the tree. Pick a side of the tree that you’re going to work on, and mentally map out the triangle in your mind. This is where you’ll be weaving the lights back and forth, left and right. This is generally easier to do starting at the top. This way if you run out, you can easily connect it towards the bottom nearer your outlet, and camouflage it in the thickness at the bottom of your tree. Make a zigzag pattern starting from the top, weaving as tightly as you see fit. Make sure each section is nestled in the tree and unmoving. Try to keep the same distance between "layers" of lights so the tree is evenly lit. You may want to sort of wrap the lights around the branches, putting the branch through the loop in the strand (most light sets are made up of several different strands you can separate). This ensures the lights stay in place and don't get camouflaged behind the shrubbery. When you hit the end of a strand, plug in the next set and continue weaving. However, it’s best to not connect more than 3 sets or so, mainly for safety purposes. If you run out, you have two options: start back up at the top and make a looser weave, or just connect another strand. If you have extra at the bottom, you can start on the next side of the tree (the second triangle you mapped out) and cover the bottom on that side that will inevitably be formed with the next string of lights. Now that you’ve got some practice for this new and improved method, sides two and three may be even better. Repeat going from top to bottom,...

TL;DR in English: Mentally divide the tree into three triangles. Take the first string of lights in your hands. Start weaving the lights back and forth. Work your way down to the bottom. Repeat on the other two sides. Plug in the lights into an electrical outlet once you are done applying them to the tree.

Cilantro should be pruned often to encourage new growth. Older, larger cilantro leaves also tend to be more bitter in flavor, making the herb less desirable if it is left to grow out. When your cilantro plant reaches 6 inches (15 cm), start trimming away stems to use as needed.  Add fresh cilantro to salads, soups, salsa, guacamole, and other dishes. It will usually take 60-75 days after planting for your cilantro to be this height. Use your thumb and forefinger to grasp a stem at its outermost leaves. Trace downwards until your reach a new growth coming in underneath it. Pinch about 0.4 inches (1.0 cm) above the new growth to remove the stem and leaves above it. If you prefer, use scissors to cut the piece instead of pinching it. Avoid pulling off stems, which could damage the remaining plant. Wrap newly picked cilantro stems or leaves in a clean plastic bag. Store the bag in the vegetable bin of your refrigerator. Cilantro will stay fresh and flavorful for up to a week.

You can use window cleaner or rubbing alcohol. Simply wipe the tang down with your desired solution, and let it dry. Be careful not to handle the tang with your bare hands after this.  Rubbing alcohol will work the best, but you can use window cleaner too. You don't have to clean the wood scales. The wood is porous and textured, so it will take the epoxy readily. You can do this with a metal file or even a screw. You don't have to be precise for this step, but you should wipe the surface down once you are done.  If the scales are smooth on the marked sides, it would be a good idea to scuff them as well. You can also roughly sand the scales with 120-grit sandpaper. Make sure that you are only sanding the sides that will be touching the tang. Each brand of epoxy glue is different, but in most cases, you will need to mix equal amounts of "Part A" and "Part B" in a plastic, disposable cup. Work quickly. Most epoxy glues set within minutes.  Make sure that you are using epoxy glue, and not epoxy resin or coating. Mix the epoxy using a disposable tool, as it will ruin whatever you use to stir it. It would be a good idea to wear some plastic of vinyl gloves too. You can buy epoxy glue in hardware stores. Some craft stores may also sell epoxy glue. Use a disposable knife or paint spatula to spread an even layer of epoxy onto 1 side of the tang and the marked side of the matching scale with epoxy. Press the 2 together. Working quickly, flip the knife over so that you can see the other side of the tang. Insert the pins into the holes. Coat the tang and the marked side of the remaining scale, and press them together.  You may have to hammer the second scale into place to ensure a tight fit. If you want to, you can coat the pins with epoxy too. This will make the bond even stronger. Make sure that you are inserting the handle between the pieces of plastic wrap--this way, the excess epoxy won't get everywhere. Close the vise as tightly as possible. After squeezing the 2 halves together, all the excess epoxy will have...

TL;DR in English: Clean the tang on both sides to remove any oils or dirt. Scuff the tang on both sides to give the epoxy some texture to stick to.

Insert the handle into the vise and clamp it shut. Wipe off any excess epoxy with a rag soaked in acetone. Allow the epoxy to set.

Cut off the sleeves. For a fuller, fluffier look, line the inside with the batting from a pillow or old couch cushion, hot gluing it in place at the neck and armholes. To prepare for cold weather, wear a long-sleeve white shirt and leggings underneath the sweatshirt, or leave the sleeves attached and role them at the wrist if needed. Cut off a section of marabou boa, bunch it up and glue it to the back of the costume for a tail. If you don't have a boa, clump together some cotton balls or glue on a larger pom-pom. Glue the rest of your boa onto the front of the costume for a cute, fuzzy look. To add a pop of color, cut a large oval out of pink felt and attach to the front of the costume with glue or a sewing machine. Turn the cut-off sleeve inside out and glue it closed at one end. Snip this end off of the sleeve and fit it to your head, trimming more if necessary. With the other sleeve, cut out two triangles, about 7 in (2.5 cm) long each. Cut out two smaller, teardrop-shaped pieces of pink felt to glue to the ears. Glue the triangles onto the hat for floppy bunny ears. To complete the costume, cut out a carrot-shaped piece of cardboard and cover it with orange construction paper. Add some chopped-up green pipe cleaners to the top for a stem. You could use a real carrot for a shorter party. For example, a real carrot would probably be OK to last through an Easter party, but not a full day of school or a long night of trick-or-treating.

TL;DR in English: Use an old white sweatshirt for the main section. Use a boa or cotton balls for a tail. Make a chest piece with felt or boa. Make a bunny hat out of one sleeve. Make a fake carrot as an accessory.

Before you begin to speak you’ll need to get the attention of your audience. It is best to stand up and say something similar to, “I’d like to give a toast.” This announces your intentions and people will look toward you out of curiosity. Remain standing as you start to speak and raise your glass as well. The old practice of tapping your glass with a knife has now gone by the wayside. A series of glass-tapping toasts can quickly get annoying at a big event. Instead, get attention with a confident voice and consistent eye contact. Use a microphone, if one is available. ” Your first line is critically important as this is how you will convince everyone to actively listen to you. Open with a funny or intriguing tidbit about the subject of your toast. Don’t over-promise, but don’t provide too many details at this point either. Make your first few lines about the toastee, not you. Avoid using, “I” or “me/my,” to keep your focus, and that of your audience, on the person or persons of the hour. After your opening sentence, it is a good idea to give 1-2 lines about your background and relationship to the toastee. Keep this information brief, tailored to the event, and humorous. You’ll also want to give your audience enough background so that they will be able to follow any stories that you provide. You might say, "I'm the groom's brother and football-watching buddy." You’ll want to add in at least one, perhaps a few more, fleshed-out stories as the centerpiece of your toast. These stories should be personal, but not intimate or overly embarrassing. They should explain to your audience why the person is worth toasting to begin with.  For example, you might tell the story about the time that you and your brother (the groom) backpacked through Europe. Or, share a story about the person you are toasting and other family members or friends that are in attendance to keep the focus off of yourself. Make your listeners experience the story along with you by replacing boring descriptors with lively ones. The mud in the story...

From the start, you need a strong argument for ending the relationship, so you can make sure you follow through. Get real with yourself and take some time to write out all the reasons this relationship is toxic and needs to end. One of the most important reasons to leave a toxic relationship is because you deserve better. In addition, the relationship may be preventing you from growing, isolating you from others, or becoming borderline or full-on abusive. Go over what you want to say to the person beforehand. This will help you to appear more confident when you have the talk.  You can rehearse in front of a mirror or with a friend. Rehearsing can help you feel more confident when you speak, but keep in mind the conversation may go differently than you rehearsed. Give the person advance notice that you want to have a conversation and ask them when they are available to talk. Depending on how safe you feel, consider reaching out in person, over the phone, or via text. You might say, "Hey, I need to talk to you about something important. Do you have time to get together?" Have a face-to-face discussion with the person, if possible. Set the location based on how you expect the conversation to go. For example, if the person is likely to become angry, have the conversation in a public place. If this is an abusive relationship, have the talk by phone or through video call for your safety. Be direct about what's not working in the relationship and your decision to end it.  You might say something like, “I don't think we're good together. We breakup and makeup all the time and I have started to alienate other people who are close to me. I want to end it.” Another option is to say something like, "Our relationship is not working for me. I've thought it through, and I want to end it." There's a good chance the other person will have quite a mouthful to say. Listen to what they have to say as long as their response is free of insults or threats.  If they try to convince you not to end it or some other tactic, simply...

TL;DR in English: Remind yourself why the relationship must end. Rehearse the conversation. Let the person know you want to talk. Choose where to have the talk. Be clear and straightforward about what you want. Hear the other person out.

Fill a bowl or clean sink with your fresh baby spinach and enough cool, clean water to cover it. Swish the spinach around to clean it, then remove it to dry with a towel.  After moving the spinach around in the water, avoid further agitation so that any dirt removed from the leaves can settle to the bottom. Remove the spinach by hand or with tongs after washing so that you can dispose of the dirty water. Repeat if necessary. You can dry the spinach in a salad spinner if you have one, but patting it dry on a clean towel or paper towel should be all that is necessary to remove most excess water. Remove the stems of the leaves if you prefer not to eat them, and cut the leaves into pieces if you wish or if your recipe calls for it.  The stems are perfectly edible, but can be slightly tougher or stringier than the leaves when eating. If you cook down your spinach to a soft texture, you will likely not even notice this difference. In addition to any cutting, the baby spinach will reduce its size on its own when cooking. Place your rinsed and dried baby spinach into a skillet or other pan and stir or turn until it is cooked evenly. You may cover the pan with a lid for faster cooking.  Saute the spinach over medium heat. You may add oil or butter first, but the water content of the spinach will quickly be released and prevent it from sticking to the pan on its own. Continue to stir or turn the spinach with a spatula or tongs until all leaves are heated evenly, appear wilted, and turn a bright green.  Fresh baby spinach reduces in size considerably as it cooks. You can add more spinach to the pan as it cooks down and makes more space, if desired. Place your rinsed and dried baby spinach into a pot and cover it with water. Bring the water to a boil and cook for one minute before removing.  You can boil the spinach for longer than a minute, but it will quickly get tender and turn a bright green after very little time. After boiling, pour the contents of the pot into a colander to drain. Try steaming your spinach by...

It also indicates that you are prepared and listening in class.  Don't hesitate to ask questions if you don't understand something. Your teacher will be more than happy to help you. This implies that you want to learn and that you strive to do well in school. However, it is possible to ask too many questions — if you seem to be interfering with class or frustrating your teacher, jot down your questions and bring them up after class or (if available) by email, etc.  Generally speaking, though, it is better to ask too many questions than too few. Constantly falling behind on assignments, homework, and projects does not create a good impression.  But doing your work on schedule — or even a bit ahead of schedule when possible — shows your teacher that you’re giving an honest effort to succeed. Dedicate yourself to turning in assignments on time. Late work can result in punishments, and your teacher won't be happy either. Turning in your first assignment late isn't a good way to make a good first impression.  If you’re having trouble keeping up due to the difficulty of the work or some other factors, talk to your teacher about it immediately. diligently. Work hard in preparation for tests.  If your studying results in A's on every test, great.  But even if your hard work doesn’t achieve those highest marks, your teacher will take notice of (and appreciate) your ongoing effort toward improvement. A very effective method to studying is to study for 20 minutes, rest for 5, and every fifth break should be 20 minutes long....

Bare soil is easily swept away by wind and water, the two main causes of erosion. Plant roots hold the soil together, while their leaves block rain and stop it breaking the soil apart. Turf, ornamental grass, and low, spreading shrubs work best since they cover the soil completely.  If you have any bare ground, try to establish plant cover as soon as possible to limit erosion. If the ground is mostly flat (slope of 3:1 or less), this might be enough to solve the problem. Steep slopes erode faster, so they need more protection. This will weigh down the soil and protect the seeds and young plants underneath from getting washed away. It also slows the absorption of water to reduce runoff. Grass clippings or bark chips work especially well. If you don’t plant anything, keep the soil covered with mulch. You can also add mulch around plants to add another layer of protection or to keep the soil warm. Simply lay the mat over your seeds or young plants. On steep slopes, dig a small trench at the top of the hill first. Lay the top of the mat in the trench, fill it up with soil, then fold the mat back over the top. This helps water run over the top of the mat, where the mat will slow it down, instead of traveling underneath it. Fiber mulch mats or erosion control mats are a layer of mulch held together in a fiber mesh. This structure holds the mulch together in areas where normal mulch would be washed or blown away. Another option for erosion control on steep slopes is a series of rolled up logs or "wattles" made from fibrous material (like straw). Water running down the slope will slow down when it hits the logs, soaking into the soil instead of carrying mud downhill. Put the logs down across the slope, 10 to 25 feet (3–8m) apart. Hold them in place with wooden stakes or sturdy, living plants.  You can plant seeds directly in the logs to protect them while they grow. If you do plant seeds directly into the logs, you should still use stakes to hold the logs in place, at least until the seeds develop sturdy roots that...

To cream butter and sugar, first let the butter sit out of the fridge for about an hour until it has reached room temperature. You want it to be soft, but not completely melted.  Cut the butter into cubes and place it in a large bowl, using a wooden spoon to beat it until you've made a soft, even mixture and there are no chunks left.  You can also use a mixer if you have one. Pour the brown sugar into the bowl and use the tines of a fork to press the sugar into the butter. Use the wooden spoon to mix the ingredients together until the mixture rises and is a light yellow color. Just place the cookie dough bites on a plate and stick them in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.  You can also put them in the freezer for 10 minutes if you have a time constraint or you feel impatient. You can place the balls in the refrigerator or freezer to cool the chocolate coating.

TL;DR in English: Cream the butter and brown sugar together. Refrigerate the balls until they're firm. Allow chocolate to cool.

to catch her eye. Anytime you’re around the object of your interest, carry yourself in a way that reflects how you wish to be seen. Stand up straight, move with purpose, and speak in a calm, relaxed (yet assertive) tone of voice. A self-assured demeanor will send the message that you’ve got something going for you.  Confidence isn’t the same thing as cockiness. For many people, arrogance is even more off-putting than a lack of self-esteem.  Another positive side effect of confidence is that it makes you more resilient. If it turns out that she’s just not into you, a confident attitude will allow you to rebound and move on without feeling bad about yourself. Like it or not, physical appearance counts for a lot, especially when you don’t know someone very well. Start working out regularly and watching what you eat, and make sure you’re getting enough sleep. Spending a little extra time putting yourself together before going out could also improve your chances of catching her eye.  It’s crucial to keep up with your basic personal hygiene, as well—shower daily, brush your teeth, style your hair, and don’t forget to wear deodorant, particularly if you’ve been hitting the gym.  Your smile is one of the best weapons you have in your social toolbox. Don’t be afraid to use it. Being a good conversationalist is just as much about being a good listener as it is about having lots of funny or interesting things to say. Keep the discussion centered around her as much as possible to make her feel special. When it’s your turn to talk, say what you have to say, then look for a way to put the spotlight back on her.  Don’t feel like you have to agree with everything she says. In fact, disagreeing tactfully can be a good way to show her that you have a mind of her own and elevate the conversation to the next level.  Forget rehearsing imaginary conversations with the girl you’re trying to impress. A better approach is to stay relaxed and allow yourself to be spontaneous. That way, you’ll be ready for whatever twists and turns...

TL;DR in English:


Read the instructions. Note whether the warmer uses a bath or steam. Fill the water reservoir. Insert the bottle. Set the control dial and warm the milk.

Turning to your surroundings can be an easy way to start a conversation, and since she already likes you, she probably won’t mind if you start the conversation off this way. Make a comment about your surroundings and then ask her a question about what you just commented on to get the ball rolling. You can use this strategy whether you just met her or if you have known her for a while  Try saying something like, “Check out that guy on the paddleboard! I’ve always wanted to try that, but I’m pretty sure I would fall right off. What about you? Have you ever gone paddleboarding?” Or you might say, “I really like this bar. It’s always pretty chill and the music is good. Plus they have a great happy hour, so that’s a nice bonus. What about you? What do you think of this place?” Discussing your day-to-day activities with a girl who likes you and finding out about hers is another way to keep the conversation going, whether she is an old friend or a new acquaintance. Try giving her a brief recap of your day and then ask what she did so far today. She’ll probably be thrilled that you care enough to ask.  For example, you could say something like, “I have had a crazy day so far. I almost got hit by a car on my way to work, had a presentation to give and I was really nervous, and then went to my HIIT class after work and I dropped my phone and cracked the screen! It’s nice to be out relaxing now. What did you do today?” Remember to keep the conversation light, friendly, and entertaining. Avoid telling the girl anything too personal or that might be a turn-off. Even if she already likes you, it is possible to change her mind by sharing unappealing information about yourself. If you are just getting to know her, ask her about her favorite movies, music, TV shows, books, YouTube channels, video games, hobbies, and other interests. Make sure to share with her what your favorites are as well. If she likes you, she’ll definitely want to know more about you!  For example, you might say something like, “I just saw the Evil Dead...

TL;DR in English: Make small talk about your surroundings. Talk about your day and ask about hers if you’re not sure what to say. Discuss your favorite things to see what you may have in common. Talk about past experiences and goals to learn about her values.

To begin your foundation for the shell stitch, you will need to make a chain. Your chain will need to be a multiple of six plus five additional stitches.  For example, you could make a chain of 18 plus five, which would be 23. This would be a great length for practicing the stitch. Or, for a wider piece, you could make a chain of 60 plus five, which would be 65. To chain, loop the yarn over your hook two times, then pull the first loop through the second one. Then, loop your yarn over the hook again and pull it through the loop. Keep doing this until your chain is the required length.

TL;DR in English: Chain a multiple of six plus five.

No two bottle warmers are exactly alike, so it is essential that you read the instructions thoroughly before using it.  While the exact specifications and instructions vary from machine to machine, there are some general similarities. Note that many, though not all, bottle warmers can also double as baby food warmers for when your child starts eating solids and cereals. Some bottle warmers warm the bottle in a hot water bath, but most use steam.  Bottle warmers that use a warm water bath work the same, in principle, as a warm water bath you create without a bottle warmer. The bottle of breast milk is immersed directly into the heated water. Bottle warmers that use steam use less water. The water is heated in a separate compartment by a heating element or hot plate, and the steam comes up into the bottle compartment to warm the breast milk. This is a more gradual heating method. Pour tap water into the reservoir up to the bottle warmer's "fill line."  If the warmer has no fill line, check the instructions to determine how much water to use.     Water bath warmers tend to use more water than steam warmers. The water should be changed in between uses for almost all water bath warmers and most steam warmers. Some steam warmers have reservoirs that stay filled until the levels dip too low, at which point a refill sensor light goes off. Secure the bottle of breast milk in the warmer, placing it inside the bottle compartment. The bottle will sit loose in some warmers, while others may require you to "snap" it into place. Follow the instructions to determine how high or low to set the temperature dial, if the warmer has a dial. Press the start button and wait for the appliance to click off. Most bottle warmers have a sensor light that comes on and off to tell you when the warming session is done. Others also make a ring or alarm noise when the process is done.

It is not necessary for your hair to be freshly washed, but if you do wash your hair before styling it, you may find it useful to add some volumizing spray to it before you blow it dry. You can apply some products after blowdrying your hair, so just be sure to follow the instructions of whichever product you choose. With your hands, use your thumbs along the sides of your head to help you separate the top third of your hair from the bottom. Use a clip to hold this section in place. To create the other two sections, simply separate the remaining hair into two halves with your left and right hands. Lay the left section over your left shoulder, and the right section over your right shoulder. It is not necessary to clip these two bottom sections. Starting with one of the two bottom sections, brush the hair with a paddle brush and then spritz the entire length of hair with a heat protectant. Starting at the back of your head and moving toward the front, alternate between curling towards and away from your face. For the pieces of hair that frame your face, you’ll want to curl away from your face. Each curl should look like a little spiral.  Hold each strand on the wand for roughly 20 seconds. It could be slightly less time depending on the quality of your wand and the thickness of your hair. If your hair is fine or damaged, you may want to start at 10 to 15 seconds to see if that works for you. Curling away from your face means pulling your hair away from your face to wrap it around the wand. Curling towards your face means pulling your hair towards your face to wrap it around the wand. If your hair doesn’t hold curls well, as you let the curl slide off the wand, let it fall into the palm of your hand and hold it there until it cools off. Ensure that you cover all of your hair with hairspray. Fold your body over so that your head is upside down and your hair is hanging towards the floor, and then shake your head in a “no” motion as you spray your hair. Run your fingers through your hair gently to mould the curls...

TL;DR in English: Start with dry hair. Separate hair into three sections. Spray each section with heat protectant. Wrap 1- to 2-inch sections of hair around a 19mm (3/4-inch) curling wand. Spray your hair with hairspray. Tame the curls.

Cut the apple, pear, or other fruit in half, through the stem. Press a large melon baller into the center of each half, turning to remove the tough core. Cut a cucumber in half lengthwise, then scrape out the seeds by running the melon baller scoop down its length. Cut a peach in half and pull out the pit. If the flesh around the pit is dry or moldy, scrape it out with a shallow scoop of the melon baller. Remove similar small defects on other round fruit surfaces, where a knife is awkward to use. You can remove potato eyes this way as well. From cookie dough to meatball mixture to Matzoh dumplings, any thick substance can be shaped into a ball using this tool. Make sure to use an appropriately sized melon baller. If the recipe calls for large dollops, smaller dots may burn during cooking.  Plastic melon ballers may only work on soft foods, such as sorbet. Try dipping it in hot water, then scooping miniature ice cream sundaes. Some melon ballers have a serrated edge for a more controlled grip. Use these to remove strawberry greens, or to prepare cherry tomatoes for stuffing.

TL;DR in English: Core fruit. Remove fruit blemishes. Use it to sculpt other foods. Hull small fruit with a serrated scoop.

You'll have the easiest time removing the plastic part of the case if you work from the top of the device. You may have to lift a bit to get the plastic over any Power buttons. When you lift the plastic top off, the rest of the case should come off easily. Starting from the corner is the easiest way to begin removing the rubber. The seal will be tight, so you'll need to push with some force. Work your way around the case to remove the rubber. Be careful with the ports, as the rubber port covers can tear easily.

TL;DR in English:


Get in the water, and move your arms sideways and up-and-down. Move into slightly deeper water, where you can still stand. Hold on to the wall and start bobbing up and down. When ready, bob and release your hands from the wall. Keep doing this until you feel comfortable being in the water without holding onto the pool's edge. Play in the water until you feel comfortable and relaxed.

If you're staining a dark piece of wood a lighter color or you need to take off a lacquered top coat, sanding may be a good option. Sanding is the quickest way to take existing stain off of a piece of wood, especially if you're working with a small piece of wood or a large, flat surface with no detail. Sanding is also a good choice if you don't want to work with chemicals. Start with a rough piece of sandpaper, like a P80 grade, for the first pass over the wood, then go over the area with a medium-grit, such as a P150. If you need to, you can finish with a fine grit, like P220. Graduating to a finer sandpaper will help keep you from scuffing the surface of the wood too much. Whether you're using an electric sander, a sanding block, or just a piece of sandpaper, hold the sandpaper so it's flat against the surface of your wood as you're working. This will create an even finish. Otherwise, you could sand unevenly, wearing into the wood and creating a light spot that will show through the stain. Although you won't be working with dangerous fumes while you're sanding, you will be putting a lot of small particles into the air, and those can irritate your lungs if you breathe them in. A dust mask will help protect your airways while you're working. You can usually find dust masks wherever home improvement supplies are sold. After you're finished sanding, you'll want to make sure you don't leave any dust or residue on the surface of the wood. Otherwise, it will get caught in the stain and cause a gritty finish.

TL;DR in English: Sand the wood if you are only working with a small piece. Work from a rough grit to a fine grit. Keep the sandpaper or sander flat as you work. Wear a dust mask while you're sanding. Wipe down the surface of the wood with a wet cloth to remove any dust.

Most elements in the "d-block" of the periodic table (groups 3 through 12) are considered transition metals. Unlike other elements, they can form more than one type of ion. When a transition metal is part of an ionic compound, a Roman numeral is included to specify which ion is involved. For example, copper sometimes forms an ion with a charge of +1, and sometimes with a charge of +2. Copper (I) chloride and copper (II) chloride are 2 different ionic compounds. The Roman numeral tells you which copper ion is part of the compound. The first word of the compound name represents the metal ion, or cation. This is always positively charged. Just add the Roman numeral as a positive charge to the element name: For example, copper (II) chloride includes the cation Cu2+{\displaystyle Cu^{2+}}, since II is the Roman numeral for 2. The second word of the compound name represent the anion. This is the negatively charged ions that form from non-metallic elements. Each element of this type only forms 1 ion. To find the charge of that ion, look it up in a textbook or chemistry website, or memorize the group rules. For example, chloride is the name for a chlorine ion. Chlorine, like similar group 17 elements, forms ions with a charge of negative one. This is written as Cl−{\displaystyle Cl^{-}}. This process is the same as for any ionic compound. The total positive charge from the cations always balances out the total negative charge from the anions. The net charge of the ionic compound is always zero. To balance out the 2+ charge from a Cu2+{\displaystyle Cu^{2+}} ion, you need 2 Cl−{\displaystyle Cl^{-}} ions (2 ions x -1 charge per ion = -2). This makes an ionic compound with a net charge of +2 -2 = 0. As always, the number of atoms is written as a subscript after the element name. You do not need to write the charges in the final formula: Copper (II) chloride has one copper atom and two chlorine atoms. The formula is CuCl2{\displaystyle CuCl_{2}}.

TL;DR in English: Find the Roman numeral in the compound name. Find the charge of the cation. Find the charge of the anion. Balance the charges. Write the chemical formula.

You'll feel the pressure of the water resisting you, and you may even find it shifting your body around. Moving your arms sideways will cause your body to turn. Pushing downward will cause your body to move upward. moves your body up. Moving your arms backward will tilt your body forward.  You can do this standing or sitting, but you should be in the water up to your shoulders. This is sometimes referred to as "sculling." Make sure that your head is out of the water. Use your feet to push off of the pool's floor, and remember to breathe out through your mouth. Push off the bottom with your feet to come up and grab the wall. Scull and kick while coming up. If you want, you can even step away further from the pool's edge. Remember to go no deeper than where you can still stand. This way, if your confidence fails, all you have to do is stand up. Become accustomed to having your face in the water and your body stretched out. Try to reduce your dependence on using a flotation device and being afraid of going underwater. You can even swim a little underwater before coming up. Your primary reaction in the water must be to stretch out on the surface, scull, kick, breathe and relax. Don't get discouraged if you accidentally swallow some water. It happens to everyone, even experienced swimmers.

While there's nothing wrong with the classic vanilla cookie, you might enjoy trying something new. When mixing the dough, stir in some different flavors, such as: white chocolate chips, coconut flakes, nuts. Or, experiment with some of your favorite nuts, berries or sweet treats. If you like, you can roll the cookie dough out with a rolling pin and use cookie cutters to create desired shapes for your cookies. This can be especially fun for the kids, and will take their mind off these being merely "vanilla".

If a girl is interested in you, chances are she has already done some homework. Whether it’s talking to friends or following up on your social media accounts, she may drop hints that she knows something about your hobbies and interests. This is often a good sign that she likes you. This could also be a sign that she is interested in you as a friend and wants to get to know you better. When someone likes you, they will often try to establish an emotional bond with you through messages that create closeness. Common things to look for are if she chooses a nickname that she uses when texting with you. She may also try to connect with you by reaching out to talk with you about an experience or interest that the two of you share.  Does she text you to reminisce about a funny moment at school or maybe to commiserate with you about a particularly troublesome assignment or test you both have coming up? These may be signs she’s trying to connect with you on an emotional level.  Having a connection like this can also be a sign she is interested in friendship. Things like compliments and expressions of gratitude send a clear message that the person on the other end of your text conversation thinks highly of you. These messages can also give you hints about what it is she likes or finds particularly attractive about you.  Does she compliment your looks? Your clothes? Is she thanking you for doing something nice for her that day? You can learn a lot about what a girl thinks of you by paying attention to what she appreciates about you. Compliments don’t have to be straightforward. If a girl texts you to share happy news with you, she’s letting you know that she thinks highly of you.  If a girl is texting you to share something that made her think of you, that’s a positive sign that you’re on her mind. Text messages are a good, relatively low-risk way for two people to get to know each other a little better. If a girl is texting you details about her interests, her likes, and dislikes, pay attention as she may be trying to...

Congratulations! You've completed your Montessori training and you're now fully certified to lead a Montessori classroom. Many Montessori teachers get their first job from connections they make during their on-site training and practicum. However, if you don't, this is OK — except in some cases (like for certifications earned through distance learning), Montessori credentials are transferable, marketable skills. Generally, people who have just received their Montessori credentials will want to apply for jobs at local schools with open positions for teaching children of the age range(s) for which they are certified to teach. While you can simply contact local schools directly to check for job openings, an even easier way to find open positions is to use an online Montessori job finder! For instance, the American Montessori Society's online job search utility allows you to quickly find Montessori openings in your local area. As you would do when searching for any other job, you'll generally want to apply for multiple positions when you're looking to become a Montessori teacher. In some situations, you may be in competition with other Montessori teachers for the opening, and since you've presumably just become certified, you may have less teaching experience than some of the other candidates, so applying to a range of positions gives you the best possible chance of eventually getting a job. Note that, in the U.S., public schools generally pay their teachers higher salaries than private schools. However, for some teachers, private schools offer a freer, easier teaching environment with none of the bureaucracy of the public school system. As with most other jobs, prospective Montessori teachers generally go through an interview/vetting process before being hired. You may be required to provide a resume, proof of your certification, and/or personal references (for these, the teachers with whom you completed your practicum are great choices). As you're being considered for the job, you'll want to show your potential...

Use your trowel to spread a few slabs of mortar around the corner's base of the footing. Spread the mortar 1" deep and 8" wide in the marked area. Continue to spread the mortar to account for the distance of about three to four blocks. It is important to lay the corner block down first. Again, use a corner block if they're available. Setting the corner first will ensure an even dispersal of the rest of the blocks. Apply mortar to each side of the concrete block using your trowel. You'll need to apply at least an inch to each side. Once applied, position the stone in the desired location. Try to align the corner to the string set up earlier.  Don't apply mortar to outer edge of the corner. Try not to leave any gaps when applying mortar, or it’ll weaken the bond between the blocks. Start laying blocks from the corner or edge of the wall so you can work in one direction. Apply mortar at the end of the block before you place the block adjacent to it. Before stacking more concrete blocks on top of your initial foundation, check if everything is aligned. Use your mason's level by laying it on the first set of blocks.  Check both the outside and center section of the bricks.  Tap the blocks for any alignment adjustments while the mortar is still wet. Do not try to move a block after the concrete has set. Measure the length and height every two or three layers. Place the mortar 1 inch (2.5 cm) deep and use the same width as the width of the block. You can then spread the mortar so it covers the length of about 3 blocks in the direction that you are laying the bricks. Lay the block down on top so the edge of the top block aligns with the halfway mark of the bottom block. You'll recognize the pattern as a standard among the construction sites. The top block will fit in between two bottom blocks. If you built fairly high walls, consider adding reinforcements. You can also use reinforcements if the ground pressure on the site is not stable. Place the 1/4" reinforcement rods into the openings with the ends overlapping...

Choir music is divided into four basic parts: Soprano (C4 to C6), Alto (G3 to F5), Tenor (D3 to A4), and Bass (E2 to E4). Test out your vocal range by playing the notes in those ranges on a piano and sing along to see which part is most comfortable.  Classical voice types are further categorized into parts like Mezzo Soprano, Contralto, and Baritone. If you join a beginners' choir, the director may be able to help you determine which part you can sing. Select the kind of choir would best suit you depending on your age, your level of experience, the type of music you like to sing, and how much time you are able to commit.  World music groups (or natural voice choirs), community choirs, and church choirs tend to be more informal and don't usually require auditions.  Contemporary or classical choirs, gospel choirs, barbershop choirs, and a cappella groups are more advanced and are likely to require auditions.  Children's choirs are a great option for younger singers whose voices don't blend in as well with adult voices. The directing style will also be geared toward children to help them learn and have fun. For some choirs, you may be able to join right away, but for others, you will need to audition. If the director gives you a piece to audition with, find your part and practice it until you feel comfortable. If you're allowed to choose your own piece, find one that suits your vocal range and practice it well for your audition. Select a song within the genre that the choir typically sings.  The director may ask you to do some vocal exercises or scales to test your control and range. They may also want you to demonstrate your sightreading skills and pitch memory.

Tell yourself that your work phone or computer should only be used for work-related business. This will help you separate your work and leisure technologies and make it easier to stay on task when you’re working.  For example, if you want to take a five-minute break to scroll through the news, do so on your personal phone or tablet and switch back to your work computer when you’re done. Knowing beforehand what you want to accomplish online will keep you more focused while browsing the Internet. Before you open your browser, for example, set a goal of completing research for a paper within one hour. Before resorting to technological tools, try setting self-imposed limits for yourself. For example, set a timer for ten minutes before allowing yourself to check a news site. Have a friend message you every few hours to keep you on task. If you receive and read the message, that probably means you’re not focused!

TL;DR in English: Set aside separate devices for work and play. Articulate your goals for an online session before logging on. Set a time cap for your online session, or for the most distracting sites. Ask a friend or coworker to keep you accountable.

Your first stab at a book review may not be as perfect as you'd like, so feel free to revise and adjust your draft. To gain perspective, put the review aside for a few days and then come back to it with fresh eyes.  Always use spell check and adjust any grammar or spelling. Nothing undermines a quality review more than bad spelling and grammar. Double check that all quotes and references are properly cited in your review. If possible, get someone else to read the review before you submit it to an editor or turn it in to a professor. It is difficult to edit and critique your own work, so ask a friend to read your review and then tell you if they felt the introduction grabbed their attention and if your critical discussion was consistent and developed throughout your review. Make sure you incorporate your revisions and any feedback you have received to create the best final draft. A good review will flow well from introduction to summary to critical analysis, have an interesting perspective on the book, and be free of any grammatical or spelling errors to ensure it is easy to read.

Find an energy calculator to assess your current energy usage. Slay “energy vampires. Replace your old light bulbs. Compost your kitchen scraps. Wash your laundry in cold water. Turn off the tap. Run ceiling fans instead of the air conditioner.

Many plastic products, and especially those used for food or drink or children’s toys, contain a number label that can tell you if they contain BPA.  Look on the bottom of the product for a number from one to seven (1-7) surrounded by a triangle made of three arrows (commonly known as the “recycling symbol”).  Items with numbers 3, 6, and especially 7 are most likely to contain BPA.  Items with 1, 2, 4, or 5 generally do not contain BPA. A “BPA free” label on the product or packaging, in combination with one of the “safer” recycling numbers, is your safest bet for avoiding BPA. BPA is used to provide some “give” to rigid plastics in order to reduce cracking and breaking, and rigid plastics are usually made of polycarbonates.  If the plastic item has a recycling number “7” and/or has the marking “PC,” it is a polycarbonate and more likely to contain BPA.  If a plastic product is rigid and transparent — for instance, a reusable food storage container — the odds are good that it is a polycarbonate that may contain BPA. Softer, flexible, and opaque plastics are usually not polycarbonates and less likely to contain BPA.  But always look for labeling. BPA has been in use since the late 1950s, so there’s a distinct possibility that your childhood “sippy cup” or your grandma’s vintage plastic food storage containers contain BPA.  Older products are less likely to have identifying labeling as well.  Many people are particularly concerned about BPA exposure in babies.  BPA was banned in baby bottles and kids’ sippy cups by the FDA in the U.S. in 2012, and earlier in Europe.  If you have older plastic baby bottles, assume they have BPA and discard them.  Scratches, general wear and tear, and repeated heat exposure cause the release of greater amounts of BPA from plastic products.  This is another reason to consider discarding older, well-used products that may contain BPA.

TL;DR in English: Examine plastic products for labeling. Identify polycarbonate products. Discard older plastic products.

If you want to be a good hostess, then you should avoid cleaning up while the guests are there at all costs. Though you can clean up spills or a few messes as they occur, if you’re in the kitchen washing glasses and food bowls out in the middle of the party, then your guests will see this as a sign that they are welcome to leave. Though you may hate to see a mess, remember that having a fun party is more important than having everything clean by the time the last guest leaves.  Even if there are only a few guests left, cleaning up sends the message that you want them to leave. If you really are ready for the party to end, it’s better to be honest about it than hoping they get the message. You can also arrange to have a friend or two stay late to help you clean up in advance. This will keep you from worrying about having a huge mess on your hands at the end of the party. If someone spills wine on your carpet, tips over that bowl of nachos, or accidentally knocks over a painting, try not to act too upset or to make your guests feel bad about what happened. After all, you’re the one who decided to throw a party, and big messes come with the territory. If you get visibly upset or stressed out, then your guest will feel terrible and people will think you’re too uptight to throw a fun party.  Just say something like, “Don’t worry about it at all. This kind of thing always happens at parties, and it’s no big deal.” If you want to avoid damaging anything that really means a lot to you, then you can move out meaningful keepsakes, vases, or souvenirs before the party starts. You should be warm and welcoming toward your guests for the duration of the party. If you’ve mentioned an end time and that time has not come yet, then you’ll have to do your best to continue being a good hostess and making other people welcome in your home. You don’t want guests to suddenly feel like they’re being a burden to you or that you just want them to go home already. Remember that you’re the one who decided to throw a fun party, and that...

TL;DR in English: Don’t clean up while your guests are still there. Stay calm if someone makes a mess. Make your guests feel welcome until the end of the night. Consider leaving your guests with parting gifts. Thank your guests for coming.

Many sites have calculators that will automatically tally up the energy efficiency of your house. It is also helpful if the site can also produce a graph or tally that can demonstrate what your house's potential could be after making some minor changes. ” Most electronic devices and appliances draw energy when they’re plugged in -- even if they’re switched off. Most Americans own 25+ electronic devices. You can cut your energy consumption by unplugging your appliances and devices when they’re not in use.  You can also plug appliances and devices into power strips. Switching the strip off will prevent them from drawing power. Set your computer to “sleep” or “hibernate” when you’re not using it. You can pick up right where you left off when you come back, but your computer will use a lot less energy. Old-fashioned incandescent light bulbs waste up to 90% of their energy as heat. New types of light bulbs, such as compact fluorescent (CFL) and LED bulbs, can dramatically slash your house’s energy consumption for light. In most cases, you don’t have to do a thing to your existing light fixtures. Just buy different bulbs and swap them out!  CFLs are like the fluorescent bulbs in supermarkets, but they’re shaped in a small coil and are about the same shape and size as incandescent bulbs. They last about ten times as long as an incandescent bulb. They’re usually a little bit more expensive, but they pay for themselves within a year. CFLs are a good choice for most home lighting situations. However, they usually cannot be dimmed, and they waste a lot of their energy when used in recessed or “can” lights. Because CFLs contain a small (but rarely dangerous) amount of mercury, they must be disposed of carefully. The Environmental Protection Agency has full instructions on their website.  LEDs last up to 35 times longer than an incandescent bulb, and between 2-4 times longer than CFLs. LEDs are cool to the touch, so they don’t use much energy at all. However, they are usually still more expensive than either incandescent...

If you try to ignore pain, you're only likely to feel it more. Instead of completely ignoring your pain, or trying to push it away when you feel it, accept the fact that breakups come with pain. Even when it's for the best, you will feel sad after you leave someone.  Remember, it's better to feel the pain now than let it come out in different ways later. Allow yourself to cry, be angry, feel regret, or experience any other negative emotions. It's better to feel such things than trying to push them down or ignore them. While these emotions are painful now, remember they are temporary. If you don't deal with the pain directly, you may end up in a rebound relationship. You may also end up going back to your ex to avoid the pain. Even when the pain is very hard to live with, remind yourself how much healthier it is to embrace the pain. Take the time to process your emotions. Before you distract yourself with a movie or video game, ask yourself what it is you are feeling and what it means. Feel the sensations in your body and how they are connected to your emotions. Identify the emotions you are having — are you sad? Angry? Relieved? If you are sad, ask yourself what you have lost. If you are angry, ask how you or your values have been attacked. Try writing about these feelings or expressing yourself through art. Meditate, exercise, and talk to your therapist or friends about how you feel. These are all good ways to cope with the pain. In a bad relationship, you often lose your sense of self. You end up putting your own wants, needs, and passions on hold for another person. When recovering from a bad breakup, it can help to remind yourself who you are. Take this as an opportunity to rediscover yourself.  Is there anything you gave up for the relationship? For example, maybe you had friends your boyfriend did not want you to see. Maybe you had hobbies he was threatened by. Get back to your old self. See friends you did not have time for before. Take up a hobby or interest that went neglected during your...

TL;DR in English: Accept you will experience pain. Get back in touch with your old self. Avoid self-blame. Set standards for future relationships.

. Use mints or gum to freshen your breath. Before your kiss, make sure your breath is minty fresh! Avoid eating garlic, and make sure you brush and floss your teeth. No one wants to kiss someone with bad breath! You can also use mouthwash, breath mints, or chewing gum to keep your breath fresh. To initiate the kiss, it is helpful to be close to your partner on the couch or be cuddling in bed. This way, you can comfortably kiss for a long time!  You can slowly come closer to them and smile at your partner, for instance. Place your hand on your partner's knee to show them your interest. When you want to go for a long kiss, it is best to start slowly and gradually to turn up the passion. Kiss your boyfriend or girlfriend’s hand, arm, chest, ear, and/or cheek. Save the lips for last. They may reciprocate with similar kisses across your body.  Give them light, gentle kisses to arouse them and be suggestive. As you do this, pay attention to their overall body language. If your partner seems stiff or disinterested, try massaging their neck and back, for instance. For an extra flirty touch, you can trace your partner’s lips with your tongue before you go in for the kiss. Maintain eye contact. When you want to start the kiss, look your partner deep in the eyes, and slowly bring your head towards theirs. As you do this, slightly tilt your head so you can align your lips. Maintaining eye contact helps increase the passion and ensure you do not miss. When your lips are nearly touching, gently shut your eyes and go for it! Shutting your eyes helps you focus on the feeling of your partner’s lips, so you can enjoy the moment. Close your eyes when it feels right, rather than planning for the perfect moment. Do what feels natural when kissing your partner. After you make the initial kiss, go back for 2-3 more kisses in a row. Your partner will likely get the hint that this is not just a simple kiss! If your partner tries to French kiss you, you can try pulling back at this point. This will make them want to kiss you even...

Avoid your child’s first attack. Don’t fight the way your child wants to. Fight dirty. Trick your child.

Make sure your child eats several hours before bed. Minimize day naps to 10-15 minutes. Keep your child’s room dark and quiet. Let your child entertain herself in bed. Encourage your child to do a morning stretch before getting out of bed.

If he is rushing at you or throwing a punch, move to the side, then push him down from behind when he has passed you. This technique uses the opponent's momentum against him.  You must remain calm and move quickly to get out of the way. Your instincts to avoid a punch or kick should help, but be aware that you may also 'freeze'. When you push your opponent, try to thrust away from the ground with your legs and follow through with your arms to deliver the most force possible. Most people will tend to use one style of fighting - punching, grappling, kicking, etc. Don't engage with the same technique.  If your opponent punches, try to drag him to the ground. If your opponent seems to want to tackle you, try to stay on your feet. Fighting techniques such as Krav Maga encourage explosive attacks against the opponent's weakest points. Hit soft, weak parts of your opponent's body (toes, groin, stomach, face, side of the neck) with hard, strong parts of your body (your heel, knee, elbow, heel of your hand, top of your head).  Stomp on your opponent's toes. Kick or punch his groin, the top of his stomach (solar plexus), or the belly button area (diaphragm). Gouge your opponent's eyes, or punch him in the nose, chin, or jaw as hard as you can. If you are being attacked and have access to anything that can be used as a weapon, use it. You can throw things, such as keys or sand, gravel, or dirt, as well as using things as weapons. You have a right to defend yourself in any way you can. Just keep in mind this doesn't extend to attacking. If you are good at bluffing or acting, you may be able to trick your opponent into making the fight easier for you.  Adopt a martial-arts style stance and put your fists up in front of your face to encourage your opponent to do the same. If your opponent is not a trained fighter, he may mimic your stance, which puts you in control of the fight. Bluff a kick from the side. Make it look like you're going to kick your opponent in the shin. Instead, deliver a strong punch to his face, solar...

TL;DR in English: Avoid your opponent's first attack. Don't fight the way your opponent wants to. Fight dirty. Trick your opponent.

Leaving dirt or other particles on the wood can keep it from properly absorbing the paint, primer, and sealant. Clean the wood before applying sealant by wiping it down with a damp cloth. You can use a tack cloth to pick up any remaining dirt. Tack cloths are gauze-like materials treated with a sticky substance and can be purchased at any home improvement store. Brush a thin coat of glossy acrylic medium sealant onto the wood using a dampened sponge or paintbrush. Allow the sealant to dry, and then apply another coat to the wood. Lightly sand the wood after the second coat of sealant has dried to remove any excess sealant and then wipe it down again with a wet cloth and tack cloth.  Use a sponge for wood surfaces with grooves and curves and a paintbrush for flat surfaces.  The sandpaper should be around a 220 grit. Using primer provides a surface to which paint can adhere by allowing the wooden surface to regain surface tooth (ridges and valleys).  An acrylic gesso is probably your best option for using primers.  You will only need to apply one coat of a high quality primer, lower quality ones might require a second coat. In order to maximize paint adhesion, you’ll need to allow the primer time to dry. This could take several hours. Once the primer is dry to the touch, you can start applying your paint.

TL;DR in English: Use a wet cloth to clean the wood. Apply 2 coats of sealant onto the raw wood. Apply a coat of primer to help the paint adhere to the wood. Allow the wood to dry and cure.

Some children wake up early in the morning due to hunger and have a hard time going back to sleep until they get something to eat. This can then lead to a very early breakfast for your child and for you, and throw off the rest of the day’s meals. Prevent morning hunger by ensuring your child eats a substantial dinner two to three hours before bedtime. You can also prevent an early morning breakfast by putting off breakfast in the morning. Instead of giving your child breakfast as soon as they wakes up, try to postpone giving her breakfast. Do this gradually by waiting ten minutes after your child wakes up to make breakfast. Add on ten minutes each day until you can postpone breakfast for an hour. Your child will be less likely to wake up early for breakfast if they know they will need to wait anyway for a meal. Keep in mind your child only needs 10-12 hours of sleep within 24 hours, and most of those sleeping hours should be done at night. You do not want your child to fulfill her sleep requirements by napping too much during the day. Limit daytime naps so they are only 10-15 minutes at a time and occur once or twice a day. Be sure not to limit napping during the day too much, as you do not want your child to be overly tired by the end of the day. Many children are woken up by noise or light in the morning. Minimize the morning light in your child’s room by using thick curtains or shades and making sure they are drawn before your child goes to bed.  You should also note if there are any sources of noise, like an appliance in the kitchen, or a rowdy dog sleeping in the hall, that could wake up your child early in the morning. Move the source of noise away from your child’s room so they can sleep in peace. You can also keep your child’s door closed and muffle any outside noise with heavy curtains. Some parents put the lamp or light in their child’s room on a timer so it does not come on until the child’s wake up time. This can help your child remember when it is time to wake up and ensure they are not woken up...

Preheat the oven. Peel and trim the garlic. Drizzle the garlic with the oil. Bake the garlic. Allow the garlic to cool, and serve or store.

After making your first draft, go over your work several times. Remove any grammatical errors and change any incorrect words. Be aware of who your audience is and try to keep the language as simple as possible so everyone understands what you’re saying. Business jargon, for instance, is acceptable when you speak at work. Other audiences may not understand these words, so they’re not appropriate to use. Take some time to go into a quiet room and read the introduction out loud. This gives you a better sense of how your writing sounds and provides an opportunity to practice speaking. Continue rewriting the speech so it’s engaging and flows well.  One way to do this is to record yourself. Play back the recording to get a better sense of how your introduction sounds. You can also time yourself to see how long your introduction is. Ideally, an introduction takes up only a couple of minutes. Recruit friends and family to give your introduction a test run. Go through the entire introduction, then ask for feedback. They may be able to help you make adjustments so your introduction flows smoothly and is more engaging. This is a good way to test out jokes or other introduction techniques you’re unsure about including. your introduction. Reading from a script is boring and distracting. To give a better introduction, memorize the lines. Read through the introduction plenty of times, paying attention to the words that stand out the most. You can highlight these words and use them to remind yourself of what you need to say next. You can put the keywords on notecards or a slide in your presentation.

TL;DR in English: Rewrite your introduction until it’s clear. Read your introduction aloud after rewriting it. Rehearse your introduction in front of other people. Memorize

Many betta like to hear their person's voice. You may notice that your betta swims more actively when you talk to the tank. You can also move your finger around on the glass of the tank, or wiggle it at the surface of the water. He will try to jump toward it. Just be careful not to let him jump out of the tank. Betta fish are curious fish, and they like to play! He or she might follow you around the room when you walk around too. Having different decorations that you switch out at different times give your betta more of a variety of things to look at, and will keep his life enriched. If it is female, it MAY like the company of two or three other female betta fish. It is recommended to have more than two so they won't fight constantly if they are aggressive to one another. This is called a “female betta sorority tank.” Be prepared, however, to keep them in separate tanks if they do not get along. Male bettas most definitely CANNOT live with other male bettas. They will attack each other, which is why bettas are nicknamed “Siamese fighting fish.” A male betta can be in a tank with a female betta for breeding purposes, but you should leave this to professional aquarium breeders, or when you get more experienced with fish-keeping. Again, some betta, male or female, will never get along with others in the tank. Suggested possible tank mates for betta are apple snails, ghost shrimp, red cherry shrimp, African dwarf frogs, cory catfish, and neon tetras. If you do introduce other fish or animals to the tank, you’ll need to keep a careful eye on them. Signs include damaged fins or bodies in the other fish or water animals. You may not always see the betta attacking, but keeping a careful eye on the health of the other fish or animals in the tank is necessary. Do they look hurt? Are any of them hiding constantly? These could be signs that the betta is being aggressive toward them, and you should separate the betta for the well-being of your other fish or water animals in the tank. If you do not have a tank divider or a...

TL;DR in English: Talk to your Betta. Move around his decorations or buy him new ones. Decide if you should introduce another betta fish for your betta. Carefully bring in some "company" to pal with the betta fish. Watch for signs of not getting along.

To ensure that your oven is hot enough to caramelize the garlic, it’s important to preheat it. Set the temperature to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius), and make sure that the oven rack is set in the middle position. Keep an eye on the oven so you know when it’s fully preheated. Many models will beep or flash an indicator light to let you know that it’s reached the desired temperature. Leave the head of garlic intact, but peel away the outer papery layers from the bulb. Use a sharp knife to carefully trim away approximately ¼ inch (.63 cm) from the top of the head so the tops of the individual cloves are visible. When you’re peeling and trimming the garlic head, make sure that all the cloves remain connected to one another. You don’t want them to come loose. Once the garlic is peeled and trimmed, place it on a piece of foil. Next, drizzle approximately 1 to 2 teaspoons of olive oil over it to cover all of it. When you’re pouring the oil over the garlic, make sure that it sinks down into and between the individual cloves. Wrap the foil up over the garlic head, and place it on the middle rack of the oven to bake. After 40 minutes, unwrap it and check the garlic. The individual cloves be a deep golden color and soft when pierced with a knife. If the garlic isn’t fully caramelized yet, let it keep baking but check on it in 10 minute intervals until it’s done.  The exact roasting time necessary to caramelize the garlic will depend on its size, age, and variety. When you check on the garlic, be sure to use an oven mitt or pot holder because the foil will be very hot. When the garlic has finished baking, remove it from the oven, unwrap it, and allow it to cool for approximately five minutes. To remove the garlic from the paper, push on the bottom of the clove. You can use the caramelized garlic right away or store it in the refrigerator for later use. The garlic will last up to two weeks in the refrigerator. If you freeze it, it can last up to three months.
