Advances in technology have really made a difference in the way we work out. You can purchase watches that can track your heart rate, blood pressure, and the level of oxygen in your blood. You can wear technology that can track how long you run, calories consumed, or weight lifted. If you’re a techie, these new piece of wearable technology may help you stay determined. There are other people on the same journey as you! Statistics show that people are more likely to stick with a fitness routine if they are involved in a like-minded community.. To keep motivated, take progress pictures of the muscle groups you want to work on. Write a blog to help keep a log of your updates. It is very motivating to see progress! Get your community involved with your journey. Meet up with locals in public places like the local library. Getting others involved can help you keep your energy and stay motivated in your fitness journal.

TL;DR in English: Plug in with fitness technology. Join a fitness forum. Write a blog and take pictures. Get others involved.

Try to create a flat, even layer that you can easily pour the baking soda over. Continue doing this until all of the flames are extinguished. Use any kind of store-bought baking soda; you just want enough of it to create a thin layer over the embers and wood. Baking soda contains sodium bicarbonate, which is also found in some fire extinguishers, and it will help smother the fire so it doesn't restart. Avoid using sand to smother a fire as it will be difficult to clean out of the fireplace. If the fire restarts, repeat the ash and baking soda steps until the fire is completely out.

TL;DR in English: Use a fire poker to spread around the burning wood and embers. Scoop up some ash with a metal shovel and dump it over the firewood. Pour baking soda over the embers and firewood. Watch the fireplace for a few minutes to make sure the fire doesn't restart.

The factors of a number are all of the whole numbers that are evenly divisible into that number. The number 6 has four factors: 6, 3, 2, and 1. (Every number has a factor of 1, because every number can be evenly divided by 1.)   For example: 3/8 + 5/12. Factors of 8: 1, 2, 4, and 8 Factors of 12: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12 Once you have listed the factors of each denominator, circle all of the common factors. The largest of the common factors is the greatest common factor (GCF) that will be used to continue solving the problem.  In our example, 8 and 12 share the factors 1, 2, and 4. The greatest common factor is 4. In order to use the greatest common factor to solve the problem, you must first multiply the two denominators together. Continuing our example: 8 * 12 = 96 After finding the product of the two denominators, divide that product by the GCF you found previously. This number will be your least common denominator (LCD). Example: 96 / 4 = 24 To determine the multiple needed to make the denominators equal, divide the LCD you determined by the original denominator. Multiply the numerator and the denominator of each fraction by this number. The denominators should now both be equal to the LCD.  Example: 24 / 8 = 3; 24 / 12 = 2 (3/3) * (3/8) = 9/24; (2/2) * (5/12) = 10/24 9/24 + 10/24 With the LCD found, you should be able to add and subtract the fractions in the equation without further difficulty. Remember to simplify the fraction at the end, if possible. Example: 9/24 + 10/24 = 19/24

TL;DR in English: List all of the factors of each denominator. Identify the greatest common factor between both denominators. Multiply the denominators together. Divide this product by the GCF. Divide the LCD by the original denominator. Solve the rewritten equation.

Plan what you will wear before, and make sure it's something you feel good moving around in. Don't wear something too tight or constricting. You will feel most confident in an outfit you're familiar with and you know you love. Shake the directors' hands, if offered. Introduce yourself and let them know what piece you are doing. Look each of them in the eyes while you are talking to them. Keep your back straight and try not to fidget. Pretend like you're meeting new coworkers: act friendly, but professional. Remember to smile, even if you don't feel like it. Smiling will make you feel more approachable. Project your voice so that your directors can hear it across the room. Clear your throat if you need to. Practice projecting your voice before the audition so you sound confident. Even if you feel nervous, a loud voice will make you seem self-assured. Some performers overwhelm themselves by considering what this audition will mean for their future career. Don't worry yourself with this during the audition. Instead, focus on what you must do to finish this audition. Take every audition one step at a time. Don't worry about getting the part or impressing the casting director. Make the focus on doing your best and improving yourself. Don't be afraid to pause for a moment if you're nervous. Clear your mind, and breathe in from your abdomen. When you're ready, begin just as you did in your mock audition. Smile, take another breath, and keep going. Your casting director will understand if you make a mistake. They expect even the best performers to make a mistake sometimes. When/if you do, they will pay more attention to your behavior and appreciate performers who can pick themselves up and keep going. Remember to practice this behavior during your mock auditions. If you know what to do beforehand, you'll continue without freezing during the actual audition.

TL;DR in English:


Don’t be an emotional abuser. Don’t punish a child’s curiosity. Know the dangers of harsh, overly-strict parenting. Know the dangers of weak, permissive parenting. Get outside help for major behavioral issues.

Lope for a good few laps. Keep practicing. Ask someone to observe you.

Studies show that lying is a regular part of daily life even for people we’d otherwise consider moral, upstanding individuals. When people lie to ease social tensions, rather than to serve their own purposes, a white lie might be a better option than the truth. Lie as little as possible, without elaboration. An elaborate story about why you can’t attend a party will seem suspicious, and will also be more difficult to keep track of if someone asks you about it later. Everyone understands that familial obligations always trump parties. Tell your friends that you have to babysit a sibling, or that your parents are forcing you to have dinner at your uncle's house that night. An iron-clad excuse is that you're grounded; everyone will understand that there's no way you can come to a party. Only the most overbearing friend would try to guilt you into canceling plans you've already made with someone else to come to their party. But make sure that you don’t use a friend who’s attending the part as your alibi. Say you have plans with a friend from a different school, or even with an imaginary friend. On the day of the party, text your friend saying that you think you ate something bad, and that you have food poisoning. Nobody wants someone throwing up at their party. Plus, food poisoning passes very quickly, so nobody can be suspicious when you feel fine again the next day. Whether you're a student or an adult with a job, everyone knows and understands that sometimes we fall behind and have to catch up on our work. If the host still tries to pressure you into coming, say that your parents or your boss are upset with you, and you have to make it up to them. If the party is two weeks away, and you know the whole time that you don’t want to attend the party, don’t wait until the last second to get out of it! Set up your lie ahead of time to deflect suspicion. Some things you might consider are:  Telling the host at the time of invitation that you have a previous engagement on that day. Telling the host a day or two before...

TL;DR in English: Don’t be too hard on yourself for lying. Keep your lie simple. Blame your family. Say you already have plans. Pretend you’re not feeling well. Pretend you have too much work to do. Set up your lie ahead of time. Keep track of your lie.

Plain vinegar is too strong to use on hair, so it's important to dilute it with water first. One-fourth cup of vinegar and one-fourth cup of water should be enough for a single hair rinse.  If your hair is quite oily, you can add an extra tablespoon of vinegar. If your hair is dry or you tend to have dandruff, add a tablespoon of water. Curly hair and color treated or permed hair should be treated with a much more diluted solution, anywhere from 2 to 4 parts water to 1 part vinegar. Either distilled white vinegar or apple cider vinegar work well here. Many prefer using apple cider vinegar in the shower because the smell is less intense. Since you're using a vinegar rinse, there's no need to condition your hair after shampooing. The rinse will leave your hair soft and smooth. You may love the results of your rinse so much you're tempted to repeat it every time you wash your hair. However, vinegar can dry out your hair if you use it too often. Use it just once or twice a week to remove buildup in your hair and restore shine.

TL;DR in English: Mix vinegar and water. Skip the conditioner. Repeat once or twice a week.

Even parents who practice corporal punishment usually make a clear distinction between the occasional spanking and a deliberate, violent beating. It's never OK to beat a child. This is almost universally recognized as a form of abuse by parenting associations. In addition, clear links have been established between suffering beatings as a child and increased rates of mental illness as an adult. Additionally, certain forms of violence can cause permanent, even lethal damage to a growing child. For instance, shaking a young child in frustration or anger can give it brain damage or kill it. It's perfectly possible to be an abusive parent without even raising a finger towards your child. Neglect, isolation, and intimidation are all ways to damage your child's emotional growth. Though raising a child can be frustrating, these behaviors are never okay; not only are they cruel and unfair to the child, but they can also lead to serious problems, including self-harm, substance abuse, depression, and even suicide. Below is a brief list of behaviors that qualify as emotional abuse. For a complete list, consult anti-abuse resources like the American Humane Association:  Isolating the child from others from normal social interactions. Verbally assaulting the child with insults, threats, and ridicule. Terrorizing the child for failing to meet unreasonable expectations. Deliberately humiliating a child. Using fear and intimidation to control a child. Ignoring or neglecting the child's basic needs. Forcing the child to do something wrong or unhealthy. Refusing to show your child love, tenderness, and affection. Children are naturally curious; they learn by interacting with the world around them. Try to avoid punishing your child for misbehavior that's a result of honest curiosity. Punishing a child for doing something that they didn't even know was wrong may encourage them to be afraid of new experiences in the long run or even make the bad behavior more exciting. For example, it would be wrong to punish a child for asking...

TL;DR in English: Don't ever beat a child. Don't be an emotional abuser. Don't punish a child's curiosity. Know the dangers of harsh, overly-strict parenting. Know the dangers of weak, permissive parenting. Get outside help for major behavioral issues.

Then take a break by trotting or walking your horse. Begin the steps above again to allow your horse to practice getting into the gait. As you advance in your loping ability you will be able to see a huge improvement in your horse’s posture, as well as his awareness of your riding and a faster response to your commands for lope. Like any new skill, your horse needs time to master loping. Each stride will have three footfalls, but should be a slower and more relaxed pace. As your lope becomes maintained and correct, you will be able to proceed to getting your horse to lower its head and be suitable for a western class. Even if you think that you have loping down, it’s best to get someone to watch you and your horse to make sure it’s all working as you hope. Sometimes it’s obvious to an outside observer that you need to make a small change in order to become truly proficient at loping.

Most toasters require access to an electric wall outlet. If the toaster is plugged in but isn't working, check the cable for damage first, then plug the toaster into a different outlet.  If plugging the toasted into a different outlet doesn't help, then the toaster might be broken. Don't use the toaster if the cable appears damaged in some way. Check for damage, such as rips, tears, or scorch marks. Do not, under any circumstances, put a metal implement into the toaster while it is plugged in. Likewise, do not reach your hand into the toasting slots while the appliance is hot. The toaster works by firing metal filaments up to high heat using dangerous electrical currents. If you use your hand, you may burn yourself. If you put a fork into the slots, then you run the risk of electrocuting yourself.  If the toast gets stuck in the slots: try depressing the lever for a moment, then popping it up manually—quickly, with force—to fling the toast out the top of the toaster. Unplug the toaster before you try to remove food that is stuck. Then, use wooden tongs to remove the item. Wooden tongs will not conduct electricity! when it's not plugged in. Most toasters feature a flat, removable tray that slides in and out of the bottom of the appliance. This tray catches crumbs and burnt bits. Remove the tray and dump out the contents to clear space for more crumbs.  If your toaster doesn't have a tray, unplug it first, then carry it over to a sink or trashcan. Turn it upside down and shake the crumbs out. You need to remove these crumbs; otherwise, they become a fire hazard.

TL;DR in English: Make sure that the toaster is plugged in. Practice toaster safety. Clean a toaster

This includes goals, living arrangements, etc. Actual perfection, when nothing ever goes wrong and everything is amazing, is not possible. But you can get close by paying attention to your hopes and desires, striving to better yourself, and enjoying the present moment. When you envision your perfect day, what do you see? Who is there, what are you doing, and where are you?  Focus on things in your control, like your studies, career goals, and lifestyle. Think of people whose lives you admire. What about their life appeals to you? There is no "right" way to live a perfect life, so don't try and imitate anyone else. Instead, follow your own passions, dreams, and desires. Volunteering, tutoring a friend, and helping your parents around the house aren't just nice things to do, they can improve your own well-being. Doing good makes you feel good and it builds a loving, supportive network of people around you that will help if your own life ever gets tough. Make your life about more than just you and the feeling of perfection will creep one step closer. Education is, and always will be, the easiest way to make something of your life. Through education you improve your job prospects, your ability to think and reason in any situation, and your general knowledge on a variety of subjects. School, however, often makes it difficult to truly enjoy learning, turning it instead into a stressful chore you must slog through. However, by re-framing school as a chance for a free education, enjoying the learning purely for leaning's sake, you can find new motivation to study and grow with or without a teacher. The old adage, "knowledge is power," could not be truer. It doesn't matter what you do in life, the ability to learn and hold knowledge will help you be successful and happy. You are busy, and it often feels like people need teenagers to do 8,000 things every 24 hours. But you need to put your own happiness first sometimes in order to do you very best work. Each day, take 15 minutes or more to yourself. You could read,...

TL;DR in English: Write down what perfection means to you. Make time to help others. Look at schooling as a chance to grow and learn, not a forced chore. Give yourself some "me time" each day. Enjoy the present moment, even when things are hard. Reframe negative thoughts and experiences as positives. Remember that life isn't perfect-- and that is a good thing.

Both pyrethroid and imidacloprid insecticides work in a similar way by causing paralysis in insects, eventually leading to their death. The products are sold in liquid and granule forms at many gardening stores or are available to purchase online. Use care when handling insecticides. Even though the toxicity level is not as high for humans as it is for insects, it can still cause irritation or sickness. Crane fly eggs hatch at this time and the insecticide will be the most effective for killing adults and leatherjackets alike.  Pyrethroids and imidacloprid are preventative to help control future grub problems.  You can apply insecticides again when temperatures rise in the spring. If you’re using a liquid form of the insecticide, dilute the solution with water depending on the area that you are covering, or about 10 mL of concentrate per 5 L of water. Use a spreader to disperse granules across your lawn. Protect yourself from inhaling chemicals by wearing an earloop mask or similar product. Once you have finished applying the insecticide, water your yard with a sprinkler or a hose. This ensures that the pesticides are brought down into the soil and helps prevent accidental exposure to pets or other members of the family. Measure how fast your sprinkler waters a lawn by using a rain gauge. 1⁄2 inch (1.3 cm) of water can take anywhere from 15 to 30 minutes. Avoid letting pets outside for the next half hour while the lawn dries. While the lawn is wet, animals and humans are at risk for exposure to the insecticides. Once the lawn is dry, it is safe for family members and pets to return outside without exposure to the insecticide.

TL;DR in English: Pick a pyrethroid or an imidacloprid product. Apply the insecticide in late summer or early fall. Use a garden sprayer or spreader on the lawn to disperse the insecticide. Cover the lawn with 1⁄2 inch (1.3 cm) of water immediately after application. Let the insecticide set for 30 minutes.

You only get one chance to make a first impression and it is important to make it count! When you are meeting someone new, make sure that you do everything you can to make a great first impression. This will help you to stand out.  For example, if you are meeting someone for a first date, make sure that you have practiced your entrance, introduction, and anything else that might come up in the first few minutes of meeting the person. Try telling a joke, wearing a flashy new outfit, or picking an interesting place to meet the person. . Listening can also help you to stand out since not everyone possesses this important skill. Develop your listening skills and practice them whenever you get a chance.  For example, you can practice good listening skills when your teacher is explaining the daily homework, when your best friend tells you about their day, or when your boss is describing a special project. To be a good listener, make eye contact and nod to show you are paying attention, rephrase what the person says to show them that you understood them, and ask questions to show your interest in what they are saying. Kindness is not a trait everyone possesses either, so showing kindness to everyone can also help you to stand out. Be nice to everyone you meet or interact with even if you have nothing to gain by being nice to them. For example, if there is a new student in your class, invite them to have lunch with you. If your office has just hired an intern for the summer, then let them know you are available if they have any questions. While you may not always want to voice an opinion on divisive issues, staying focused on your opinion while listening to other people can help you to stay true to yourself. By maintaining your stance, you may also avoid giving in to requests and ideas that you are against.  For example, if you have a strong opinion on who should win the next presidential election, then you might keep this idea in mind any time you are involved in a conversation where people are discussing the...

A wound watch will run accurately from 18 to 36 hours - depending on the mechanism. Larger watches have larger mechanisms. Smaller watches have smaller, more delicate mechanisms.  Mechanical watches should be wound at least weekly, even if they are in storage. It might become routine if you wind the watch when dressing in the morning or before bed. You don’t need to purchase specialty oils or cleaners to care for your watch. Clean your watch with a toothbrush and warm water. Dip the toothbrush in the warm water and wipe off the bristles to remove excess water. Scrub the exterior and inside the stem with the toothbrush.  Don’t use too much force when cleaning inside the stem and crown. Don’t remove the screws and attempt to clean the gears, unless you know how to. Consult a watch specialist about cleaning the inside of your wristwatch. Watches are delicate instruments and you should be cautious when putting one away in storage. The best way to protect your watch is by wrapping it in a protective coating. This could be bubble wrap or another packaging protective fabric.  You should store the watch in an environment that is cool, clean, and dust free. Keep the watch out of direct sunlight.  You should attempt to wind it every week while in storage.

TL;DR in English: Wind the watch daily. Clean your watch. Store your watch properly.

Using your campaign media staff, come up with a way to get your name out there. Some ways to do this are billboards, newspaper ads, TV ads, online ads, etc. Give speeches and set up fundraisers. Be creative.  You may want to start with the early caucus states like Iowa, New Hampshire, and South Carolina. These states can give you an early lead that is hard to catch up in the long run. They'll also give you a boost in being considered for the party nomination. Be ready to travel. If it wasn't already clear, you'll need to quit your job. You'll be racking up those miles daily, so load up on Dramamine, deodorant, and sign up for a Premier Member card at your favorite chain of hotels. Campaigning requires vast amounts of money. Come up with an easy way to accept donations and to stay in touch with your initial backers. They're your bread and butter for a long time coming. Luckily, you've probably been public speaking for months, so the basics shouldn't be foreign to you. But when you get in front of those bright lights and that timer, the gloves come off. Start practicing ASAP -- you'll be glad you did. Know what you believe and are advocating. What's more, know what everyone else believes. Not only do you have to have you down, but you have to have your opponents and the world down too. Study precedents, current events, and all your competitors so you know what to expect when you get in the inquisition arena. If you come unprepared, the whole country will be watching your darting eyes and unsteady hands. Do the research on debating techniques while you're at it. You need to be forceful but not a stick-in-the-mud, caring but not a pushover, and charismatic to boot. You've spent a lot of hard-earned time and money campaigning and now you're getting down to the nitty gritty. If you're vying for a spot with the Republican or Democratic party, you have your work cut out for you. Failure may be inevitable.  Surround yourself with a sturdy support system before you get in too deep. They'll be able to catch you when you...

Starting from early childhood, people with Asperger’s exhibit marked differences in the way they communicate. These differences are the most noticeable symptoms, especially during childhood, before they have been taught tools they can use to communicate more effectively. Look for the following differences in communication style:   A tendency to avoid eye contact.  Limited use of varying facial expressions, and/or monotone voice. Limited use of expressive body language, such as hand gestures and nodding. People with Asperger's often struggle with auditory processing, and may take longer to process spoken words. They may say "What?" or "Could you repeat that?" often, only to figure out what someone said while the person is in the middle of repeating themselves.   Remembering large amounts of spoken words may be difficult, and the person may prefer to have written directions when it comes to things they need to do. Some people with Asperger's experience selective mutism, only talking when they feel comfortable. They may also find it difficult or impossible to speak during sensory overload, a meltdown, or in general. A person with Asperger’s may have difficulty imagining how others feel, and difficulty picking up on nonverbal cues. They may be confused about facial expressions or body language that conveys happiness, sadness, fear, or pain. Here are some ways this difficulty might manifest itself:   The person might not recognize when they have said something hurtful, or when they're making someone uncomfortable in a conversation. A child might play too rough, not realizing that pushing or other aggressive physical contact can be painful. The person constantly asks about people's feelings (e.g. "Are you sad?" "Are you sure that you're tired?") because they aren't sure how the other person feels. If the other person answers dishonestly, they may become very confused and try to seek an honest answer instead of letting it be. While they may not understand, they often care deeply. The person will act very surprised,...

TL;DR in English: Look for unusual nonverbal communication skills. Notice difficulties with receptive language. Determine if the person has trouble reading the social cues of others. Notice awkward or one-sided conversations. See if the person has intense passions. See if the person has trouble making friends. Notice the person's physical coordination. Notice sensory sensitivities. Recognize difficulty coping. Identify developmental delays, including delays beyond childhood. Recognize a need for additional quiet time.

Guilt can take a toll on your physical body. Since guilt usually indicates that you need punishment, you may be caught in a vicious cycle of internal punishment. When you don’t know why you feel guilty, self-punishment can feel especially exhausting. Take time to relax and push the feelings of guilt out of your mind. This will also reduce your stress level.  Help yourself get out of the punishment mode by thinking about something you did correctly that day. For example, congratulate yourself for making it to the gym, making a healthy food choice, or spending time with your family when you didn’t have to. There are many ways to relax, such as practicing breathing exercises, meditating, visualization techniques, and so on. To stop feeling guilty for no reason, you need to let go of your feelings of guilt. Identify any wrongdoing you might have committed, seek forgiveness from yourself and others, and then stop giving yourself permission to feel this way. Accept that there is no way to change what has already happened. Remember that letting go can be choosing to stop blaming others or yourself as well as forgiving yourself and others. Sometimes you may have a constant sense of guilt because you expect perfection from yourself. Consider that you may be demanding something from yourself that you can never have. No one on Earth is perfect. When you expect yourself to be perfect, you set yourself up for failure. A sense of failure can make you maintain feelings of guilt. Instead, tell yourself that you are only human. When you make mistakes, correct them and then stop thinking about it. Find a solution for your guilt by avoiding situations that give you guilty feelings. You may feel guilt for no reason, but some situations make you feel worse than others. Identify these situations and avoid them.  Start by keeping a planner and writing down each of your daily activities in it. After each activity is over, write down how you felt, such as “good,” “happy,” “sad,” or “guilty.” Later, look at your list of emotions and...

Save the remaining ¼ cup (55 grams) of sugar for later. Whole milk would be best, but if you don't have any whole milk on hand, you can use 2% or non-fat instead. If you have not yet done so, melt the butter either in the microwave or in a small saucepan over the stove. Pour the melted butter into the flour mixture, then give it a brisk stir with a whisk. For a richer dessert, use 1 stick (½ cup/115 grams) of melted butter. Use a rubber spatula to scrape any excess batter from the bottom and sides of the bowl, and into the baking dish. You can use frozen blackberries if you don't have any fresh ones, but be sure to let them thaw out first. Sprinkle the blackberries evenly across the top of the batter; don't worry if some of them sink in. This will help give the cobbler some texture. Make sure that you sprinkle the sugar evenly across the top of the batter. The cobbler is ready when the batter turns golden and the blackberries bubbly. For added texture, sprinkle 1 teaspoon to 2 tablespoons of sugar on top of the cobbler during the final 10 minutes of baking. You can serve it as is, or you can add some whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.

TL;DR in English: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly butter a 8 by 8-inch (20.32 by 20.32-centimeter) baking dish. Mix the flour and 1 cup (225 grams) of sugar in a mixing bowl. Whisk in the milk, making sure to scrape the bottom and sides of the bowl. Stir in the melted butter. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish. Add the blackberries on top of the batter. Sprinkle the remaining ¼ cup (55 grams) of sugar on top. Bake the cobbler for 1 hour. Let the cobbler cool before serving it.

If you notice that some of the foliage is turning yellow, but not brown, leave it alone. The yellow stalks won’t affect the overall health of your plant, and cutting them down early actually decreases the amount of energy the plant can produce. Once the first frost has occurred, your lily plant no longer needs the energy produced by the foliage stalks. Use your shears to cut the yellow foliage stalks down to the ground. If quite a few of the leaves on one stem are brown, you should remove the entire stem. Follow the stem to the base of the lily plant, then use pruning shears to cut off the entire stem. Be sure you don’t leave a stub at the base of the plant. If you notice that just the tips of the leaves on your lily plant are browning, you don’t need to remove the whole stem. Instead, make an angled clip just below the browning tip. The plant should grow a new healthy green tip.

TL;DR in English: Leave yellowing or browning stalks until the fall. Prune back yellow stalks after the first frost. Remove entire stems of mostly brown leaves. Clip the tips of browning leaves.

Typically, you should avoid washing your hair right before you color it. Your scalp will be healthier if it’s protected from the dye with some of its natural oils, and washing the night before you dye will allow those oils to build back up. In addition, most hair dye brands recommend applying the product to dry hair.  Some semi-permanent dyes work best on clean hair or even require that you wash your hair right before dyeing it, so read the instructions that came in your box of dye to be sure. If your hair is too dirty, the dye might not be able to penetrate your hair evenly, so don’t try to color your hair if it’s been more than 2-3 days since the last time you washed it. Hair dye can be messy, even if you’re careful. Since you’ll be dyeing the hair at the back of your head, it will be even harder to avoid dripping dye. To avoid ruining your nice clothes, put on an old shirt and some shorts or sweatpants. That way, if a little dye does drip onto your clothes, you won’t be worried about it. You could also purchase a hairdresser’s cape to wear over your clothing. Once your hands (or gloves) are covered in dye, it will be really inconvenient to have to go looking for anything. Set up the area where you want to dye your hair with everything you might need during the process. Spread out towels or newspapers on your floor or counter. Also, keep some towels nearby for easy cleanup if a spill or splatter occurs.  If your kit didn’t come with gloves, you’ll need those as well. The process will be easier if you do it in the bathroom and have 2 mirrors, such as a wall-mounted mirror and a handheld mirror, so you can see the back of your head.

Mice can get a variety of infestations that have similar symptoms to a mite infection. For example, mice can get a lice infestation that presents very similarly to a mite infestation. In order for your mouse's issue to be treated correctly, you need to figure out what type of infestation the mouse actually has. When your veterinarian inspects your mouse, they should be able to tell what kind of infestation your mouse has. Treating a mite infestation requires you to apply a medication. The medications used for mite infestations may be applied on the skin, given orally, or injected by the veterinarian. They are usually applied twice, two weeks apart, to kill all adult mites. There are several medications that may be prescribed that are all macrocyclic lactone anti-parasitic drugs:  Selamectin Moxidectin  Ivermectin If the mite infestation has caused your mouse's skin to become infected, you may need to give it additional medication. Discuss this option with your veterinarian, as he or she may want to allow your mouse's immune system time to clear up the infection before relying on medication.  One reason for waiting on further medication is that infections are often treated with antibiotics. Veterinarians are in agreement that antibiotics are overprescribed and that over prescribing them leads to the development of antibiotic-resistant strains of bacteria.  Once the mites are eliminated, it will be easier to get the infection under control. If one of your mice has a mite infestation, and it lives with other mice, then they may all be infested. Discuss the problem with your veterinarian but it is likely that the vet will have you treat all the mice you have. Infestation is transferred via direct contact. If you have other mice that are housed separately, be sure to keep uninfested mice away from the infested mice until the infestation is totally cleared up. Eliminating a mite infestation will require you to thoroughly clean and disinfect all equipment the mouse comes in contact with. This includes its cage, any...

TL;DR in English: Differentiate between infestations. Treat the mouse with a product recommended by your veterinarian. Treat secondary infections. Treat all other mice you have. Clean and disinfect all equipment.

Meditation will clear your mind of the distractions that might keep you from focusing on your studies. Before you sit down to study, set aside fifteen minutes to meditate; this will help you get in the right state of mind for working toward your goals without distractions.  Find a quiet environment. Sit cross-legged on the ground in a comfortable position, supporting your back against a wall if you need to. Close your eyes and focus on the darkness. Think about nothing but the darkness that you see. Don't let yourself think about anything else. When fifteen minutes have passed, get to work! Even if you don't like to read for homework, you probably read every day. You read interesting articles online and watch interesting videos online and on TV. Summary is one of the most useful skills you can have, and it's the foundational building block of everything you do in school. By practicing this skill on stories and information you find personally interesting, you are honing an important academic skill while thinking about something you enjoy. Whether you're in class or sitting at your desk at home, you might find yourself nodding off or getting lost in a daydream because you're bored. A good way to bring your mind back into focus is to practice mindfulness tricks.  Create a simple but distinct action that sends a clear message to yourself It should be something you don't do regularly — wiggling your toes, for example. Every time you feel your mind drifting away, wiggle your toes to snap yourself back into focus. If you feel like your mind is scattered and you can't focus on your goal, give yourself a task that you know you can accomplish that will take up a couple of minutes and that is just difficult enough to require concentration, but not difficult enough to frustrate you. Counting backward from 100 will help calm you down and focus your mind. Studies have shown that exercising for as little as ten minutes before tackling a task can improve performance by increasing the flow of blood to the brain. The effects...

Just because the rejection occurred online, that doesn't mean that you won't still be feeling the strong sadness of being broken up with, ignored, or excluded. Ostracism is inherently painful--our basic needs for belonging and recognition are unmet.  Knowing your feelings surrounding the rejection will allow you to slowly start to let them go, creating the distance needed to heal. The idea here is simply to let yourself feel some of this hurt--how rejection feels to you--so that you can tell when you're over the incident. Feeling your feelings will also help you get back in the game. The next time you show interest in someone's profile and start dating, you will not be harboring resentment or defeat from the previous setback. Moving away from the incident can help you to work out what has happened with greater clarity. Take the time to assess your own behavior that could have caused the rejection or unfriending.Staying online will keep you hurting and without the crucial distance to see if some of your online habits are off-putting to others, like making crude comments or posting excessively.  For instance, some people are very good in person; they smile, flirt, and make eye contact. But, that same person might not know how to communicate very well through text, appearing cold and distant. Time examining your online personality can show you quirks and features of your behavior that you may want to be aware of. Try taking a week long break from the particular site or even off the whole internet to give yourself the space to come to terms and reflect. Especially if the relationship was exclusively online, give yourself time before making a new connection on the same dating website. The best thing about online friends and suitors is that there are so many of them—enough that you don’t need to get attached to any one person or site. Take advantage of the fact that if someone unfriends, dumps, or ignores you online, there are plenty of other fish in the sea. You may even embrace having the incompatibility between...

TL;DR in English: Acknowledge your feelings. Take a step back from the situation. Put the exclusion in perspective. Resist the urge to take it personally. Seek support from friends and family.

Canvas seats can be made to fit any size person, or project. For a small child, 2 yards (1.8 m) of the canvas will be appropriate, while adults will need 3-4 yards of fabric to form a proper seat. Most canvas should come at a standard width of 1.75 yards. If you want a deeper chair, fold the canvas long-ways, making your cuts along the longer edges of the fabric. If you want your chair wider, cut along the short side. In general, the short-side cut makes a better chair. Fold the canvas in half, short-ways. Orient the folded edge to your left. Mark a point about 7 inches to the left of the top right corner and draw a light diagonal line with pencil, toward the bottom right corner. This is where you'll cut. Again, make sure the folded edge is oriented to your left. You want to cut the unfolded side of the fabric. Go slowly, taking care to avoid creating a raggedy edge to work with. If you do, don't worry too much, because you can fold it over later while you're assembling and creating the edges. Open up the canvas and spread it out to work. You should have a four-sided shape, with two angled edges of equal length, a long side and a short side. Orient the fabric so the shortest side is at the top. Fold each edge back half an inch, then fold it again and iron. Pin them in place, and then stitch the fold twice in two parallel lines to reinforce it. Hemming the top and bottom of the chair seat will help to prevent tearing after frequent use. Hem the diagonal edges as well, but only once. After hemming the long and short sides, fold the diagonals that you cut earlier about a half inch, as you did the other edges. Pin, press, and sew the edge to reinforce it. Fold an inch and a half pocket back on each hemmed diagonal edge, then iron. Sew two reinforced lines along the hem, creating a pocket seam large enough to pull the rope through. Reinforce your beginning and ending with back stitches. These pockets are going to be holding your weight, so they need to be secure. Get creative and use your fabric paint to express...

Use room-temperature water. Let the whiskey sit for up to 20 minutes. Sniff the whiskey again and taste it.

Apply a thorough coat of repellent to all sides of the pumpkin according to label instructions.  You may need to reapply the repellent every few days, especially after the rain. Many repellents are non-toxic since they are formulated to drive squirrels away rather than kill them. Most deer repellents will also be effective since squirrels and deers are driven off by many of the same scents. Look specifically for a repellent with large amounts of "putrescent whole egg solids." This is, essentially, rotten eggs. Squirrels typically hate the smell of rotten eggs. Be aware that many repellents can have a strong odor, especially immediately after application. The smell tends to dissipate as the spray dries, but in the meantime, you may need to place the pumpkin away from the house. The animosity between squirrel and dog is mutual, and many squirrels will stay away from an area if they smell a dog.  Dog hair is also effective at repelling deer. Cat hair may have a similar effect on squirrels, since larger cats can pose a threat to squirrels. It is best to use pet hair rather than pet waste. Cat waste is especially dangerous to use since it is a source of toxoplasmosis, a parasitic infection that can cause serious health concerns for pregnant women and people with immune deficiencies. Applying a coat of liquefied hot pepper, hot sauce, or powdered cayenne pepper can give the squirrels in your neighborhood a shock once they take a sniff or nibble.  Blend the hottest peppers you can find with enough water to form a liquid. Add a drop of dish soap and a drop of vegetable oil to help the solution stick and pour it into a spray bottle. Coat the pumpkin every few days with this solution to drive squirrels away. Rub a coat of commercial hot sauce over all sides of the pumpkin. You may need to reapply the sauce after a few days or after the rain, but the hot oils have a way of penetrating the skin and soaking into the flesh of the pumpkin. Create a scent barrier around your pumpkin by sprinkling powdered cayenne pepper...

TL;DR in English: Spray with commercial squirrel repellent. Place the pumpkin on a blanket of dog hair. Use hot pepper or hot sauce. Surround the pumpkin with vinegar. Try eucalyptus oil.

Getting enough sleep while you're on chemotherapy is easier said than done. However, not doing so can make it harder for your immune system to do its job. In fact, sleep deprivation may suppress the immune system.  Skip naps during the day, which can make you less sleepy at night. If you feel tired, get up and do chores or move around to avoid the urge to nap. Also, exercise when you can to improve your sleep. Exercise 5-6 hours before you want to sleep, as exercising too close to bedtime can keep you up. Keep a standard sleeping schedule. Your body grows accustomed to a schedule, and it will anticipate sleep if you go to bed at the same time every night. If you have trouble remembering to go to bed, try setting an alarm an hour before you need to head to bed. Start a bedtime ritual that you repeat every night to remind your body it’s time to go to bed. For example, wash your face, brush your teeth, and tidy up before going to bed each night. Turn off electronics when your bedtime alarm goes off, as using them to close to bed can affect your sleep cycle. Block out noise and light in your bedroom for a better sleeping environment. Keep your bedroom dark and quiet by keeping electronics elsewhere in your home. Don’t go to bed too hungry or too full. If the chemotherapy is giving you insomnia, ask your doctor if a sleeping aid is a good idea. Exercise helps you maintain a healthy immune system. Of course, chemotherapy can make you not want to exercise, but even a little bit can be beneficial and boost your energy.  Always talk to your doctor before starting an exercise regimen, particularly when you're undergoing a treatment like chemotherapy. They can advise you on how much you can do. Your doctor may even recommend a physical therapist. Stick to low-intensity exercises, and rest when you need to.  For instance, try fitting in a few short walks throughout the day up and down your road. Ask your doctor to see if swimming is a viable option. If it is, make sure to dry yourself thoroughly afterward so you don’t...

TL;DR in English: Aim for 7-9 hours of sleep a night to keep your immune system on track. Exercise 30 minutes most days of the week when you can. Practice stress-reducing activities to keep your immune system healthy.

Pick a place you won’t mind staying at for several hours. All sorts of different fish live in public lakes, rivers, and ponds, so you can always find something good to catch. The fish come close to the shore in the spring and autumn as they prepare for winter. In the summer, they tend to be in deeper waters, so take a boat out from the shore.P  Secluded spots around ponds or levees outside of town are good bets. Make sure you’re not crossing private property or fishing in a place that doesn’t allow it. Also, be careful not to trample plants along the shore. If you live on the coast, consider ocean fishing. If you get a separate ocean fishing license and rods and bait for the specific fish you want to catch, it’s the same as freshwater fishing. Many newspapers have local fishing reports that list fishing holes and what fish are biting there. You could also ask around at angling shops, marinas, and camping supply stores for tips. There are so many types of fish that getting started can feel a little overwhelming at first, so choose a type of fish to focus on. Bass, crappies, sunfish, bluegills, and catfish are a few varieties that are relatively easy for beginners to reel in. Catfish are common all over the U.S., for instance. Look for areas with deep water around large creeks and rivers. Head to them in spring and fall to get a fish that makes for a tasty meal fried and served at your table. If you want to catch a blue marlin, you’re going to need to head out on the ocean. Take some time to read up about the kind of fish you want to catch, where they live, and what kind of bait you need to succeed. Fish populations change from area to area and from freshwater to saltwater. Sometimes you have to plan out a trip to get what you want, but it’s a chance to see something new!  Go to the Great Lakes region of the U.S. for a variety of freshwater fish, for instance. Walleyes and northern pikes are a few popular catches. Set up on the shore and cast your line. In the southern U.S., gar and bowfins live in swampy...

TL;DR in English: Go to a well-stocked lake, river, or pond in your area. Find out what kind of fish are common in nearby fishing spots. Seek out a specific trophy or food fish you want to catch. Fish at places near deep water or moving currents. Go out at dawn and dusk to find more fish. Contact an environmental health department for safety warnings.

After you’ve tasted the whiskey neat, it’s a good idea to add a little water. That helps open up the whiskey so you can pick up more of its flavors. Be sure to use room-temperature water, though, so differences in temperature don’t affect the whiskey’s taste. Mix still or flat water into your whiskey, not carbonated or sparkling. After adding the water, allow the whiskey to sit for as long as 20 minutes. During this time, the water slowly changes the flavor of the whiskey, which will allow you to notice more of a difference when you taste the whiskey again.  Adding the water to the whiskey can help bring out subtle flavors that you didn't pick up when it was neat. For example, you may be able to taste citrus notes or a nutty flavor that you didn't detect at first tasting. The water can also help tone down the alcohol taste of the whiskey, so if it had an unpleasant finish, you may find that you like it better with the water. Once the water is added to the whiskey, smell it once more. See if you can pick up any different aromas that you didn’t earlier. Next, sip the whiskey in the same fashion you did earlier and look for any changes in the aroma or flavor.

Practice basic addition and subtraction to estimate your receipt. Use multiplication to calculate the cost of gas. Use sales and discounts to practice percents. Use mental division to split a bill.

"Buenas" is derived from the adjective "bueno," and "noches" is the plural form for the feminine noun meaning "night." Together they are used similarly to "good evening" in English.  Since there's no verb in the phrase, it doesn't change regardless of who you're addressing. "Buenas noches" can be used either as a greeting or a farewell, as long as it's dark out. However, it's more commonly used as a greeting. Translated literally, this phrase means "happy night," but it is used in the same way you would say "goodnight" in English. This is considered a polite evening farewell.  For example, if you were meeting your in-laws for the first time, you might say "feliz noche" to them as you were parting ways. Another polite farewell to use late in the evening is "que tengan buena noche" (kay tehn-GEHN boo-EHN-ah noh-CHAY), which means "have a good night." " Just as you might say "evening" instead of "good evening" in English, you can use "buenas" to mean "buenas noches." Since this short form doesn't indicate a time of day, you can use it anytime, although it's more frequently used in the afternoon and evening. The word descansa is taken from the verb descansar, and basically means "rest." In casual situations, you can say this as a way to say goodnight, especially if it's late and everyone is headed home for bed.  If you're saying farewell to a group of people, say (vosotros) "descansad" or (ustedes) "descansen," depending on your level of familiarity with the people and the customs of the country. This is a more casual farewell, typically used when you're on more familiar terms with the people you're addressing.

TL;DR in English: Say "buenas noches" (boo-EHN-ahs noh-CHAYS). Use "feliz noche" (fay-LEEZ noh-CHAY) as a farewell in more formal situations. Shorten your greeting to "buenas. Use "descansa" (days-CAHN-sah) at the end of the evening.

A bug in Creative Cloud 2015 and 2017 products prevents the "Photoshop" option from appearing in Bridge if either Photoshop or Bridge is out of date. You can update both of these programs by doing the following:  Open the Creative Cloud program. Click ⋮ in the upper-right corner. Click Check for App Updates  Click Update All if prompted. Keep in mind that updating doesn't always fix this problem. If your programs are both updated to the 2017 version, consider deleting and reinstalling Photoshop and Bridge, or use Photoshop's Scripts instead. Once you've finished updating both Bridge and Photoshop if necessary, restart your computer by doing the following:   Windows — Click Start, click Power, and click Restart.  Mac — Click the Apple menu, click Restart..., and click Restart when prompted. In order to speed up the process of opening your selected images in Photoshop, both Bridge and Photoshop should be open. Click a photo location on the left side of Bridge, then hold down Ctrl (Windows) or ⌘ Command (Mac) while clicking each photo that you want to open as a layer. It's a tab in the upper-left corner of the Bridge window (Windows) or your Mac's screen (Mac). A drop-down menu will appear. This option is near the bottom of the drop-down menu. Doing so prompts a pop-out menu to appear. If you still don't see Photoshop in the Tools menu, you may need to use Photoshop's Scripts instead. You can also try deleting and reinstalling both Photoshop and Bridge. You'll find this option in the pop-out menu. Clicking it prompts Bridge to send your selected images into Photoshop, where they will be organized into one project as multiple layers. Once Photoshop displays your new project with your photos displayed as layers, you're free to close Bridge and begin working in Photoshop. You can switch between the individual layers by clicking the one that you want to view in the "Layers" window that's on the right side of Photoshop.

TL;DR in English: Update both Bridge and Photoshop. Restart your computer. Open both Bridge and Photoshop. Select photos in Bridge. Click Tools. Select Photoshop. Click Load Files into Photoshop Layers…. Wait for your photos to finish importing into Photoshop.

Don’t spend time with anyone who is negative all the time. This will make you feel bad about yourself and the world around you. You don’t want that in your life! Instead, spend time with people who understand that sometimes life is hard or sometimes people make mistakes but that things are largely good and should be appreciated for what they are, rather than held up to a standard they can never reach.  If you have a close friend who acts like this, try to help them change. If they continue to act this way, try to spend less time with them. It’s hard but being around negative people is very unhealthy and will not help you build a good image of yourself or your life. If you find yourself acting this way: stop. You don’t want to be that person. If there are bad things in your life, things you feel negative about, change them. Don’t complain and focus on all the bad things... make those bad things into better things! Don’t spend your time thinking about regrets and all of the times you did something wrong or failed in some way. Learn from those mistakes and move on. Instead of focusing on things you didn’t do right, remember all the things you excel at. Remember all the good things you’ve done. This will help you remember that you do good work and can accomplish great things when you try. Make a list of the things you are most proud of. Post it on your bedroom wall and look at it every day. This will motivate you to keep doing good things to make that list longer and longer. See if you can get it to reach down to the floor or be taller than you are! There is a saying that nobody is perfect and it is absolutely true. Nobody is perfect. Nothing is perfect. Perfection isn’t a real thing. This means that you need to stop trying to be perfect. In trying to be perfect you will only constantly disappoint yourself. It’s good to strive for something but this is the wrong way to do it. Instead, think about where you are and try to take it to the next step. Strive for getting a B on that next test before trying to get an A....

TL;DR in English: Avoid negative people. Concentrate on accomplishments, not on failures. Remove the idea of perfection. Practice self-affirmations.

Keep track of the cost of things that you purchase at the store before you get to the cashier. Add the cost of items together and keep a running tally of your overall costs. When you get the receipt for your goods, compare your mental math with the actual cost of what you purchased. For instance, if your cereal costs $3.99 and soap costs $9.49, your total cost would be $13.48. Wait until your tank is almost empty, then multiply the cost of gas by your tank size. For instance, if you had a 12-gallon tank, and gas was $3.50 you could multiply 12x$3.50 = $42. You can also cover up the cost of the gas on the pump while looking at the gallons and use mental math to calculate your total cost. You can use multiplication to figure out costs if you're buying more than one of the same item. For instance, if you bought 4 candy bars for 2 dollars each, you'd have 4x$2.00 = $8.00. Round the cost of the product to the nearest dollar, and calculate the percentage of the sale. For instance, if there was a 7% discount on a $9.65 item, you could round up to $10. 7% of 10 is 0.7 or 70 cents, which is approximately how much you'd save.  Ten percent off of $9.65 is actually 0.97 cents. If you are buying a case of water that costs $5 and it's 25% off, your savings would be $1.25. If you need to split a bill, you can divide the bill by the number of people who have to pay to determine how much each person owes. For instance, if you had a heating bill that cost $125.36 and you have 3 roommates, you'd divide $125.36 by 4 to get $31.34.  If you wanted to break down the equation to make it easier, work on the dollar amounts first, then the cents. Breakdown $125 to $100 to make it easier to divide by 4 or $100/4=25. Then divide $25/4 to get the remaining numbers that you're missing. Add the remainder or $6 to $25 to get the whole number of $31.

People often take one to three days off of work or school, depending upon the severity of their infection. This can be followed by about one full "restful week," often going to work, but postponing social commitments, chores, and other events until you are feeling better. Speak as softly and as little as possible as you are recovering. You can create a soothing mixture to help relieve tonsillitis pain. Combine 1 teaspoon (4.9 ml) of lemon juice, 1 tablespoon (15 ml) of honey, 1 teaspoon (2.6 g) of cinnamon, and 1 tablespoon (15 ml) of apple cider vinegar mixed in hot water and drink as needed. Water also helps to prevent dryness and additional irritation of the tonsils.  Hot teas, warm broth, and other warm liquids can be soothing on the throat. In addition to hot drinks, cold ice pops can also soothe throat discomfort. Mix 1 teaspoon (5.6 g) of salt into an 8 ounce (236 mL) glass of warm water. Gargle the salty water, spit it out, and repeat as necessary to relieve the sore throat caused by tonsillitis. It is important to minimize any irritants that can worsen tonsillitis, such as dry air, cleaning products, or cigarette smoke. Also, try using a cool-air humidifier that adds moisture to the room. Many lozenges contain topical anesthetic within them, which can help to diminish pain in your tonsillar area and throat. " Always consult your doctor prior to trying any of the following alternative remedies, to ensure they are safe for you in consideration of any other medical conditions you may have. There are not recommended for children and adolescents. Options to consider include:  Papain. This is an anti-inflammatory enzyme that may help to reduce inflammation of the tonsils. Serrapeptase.

Before they are ripe, cotton bolls are closed up and resemble large seeds. They are greenish brown in color and often solid. Once the plant goes into bloom, it develops the white, fluffy cotton. If you are using a cotton picker, wait until the majority of your crops have exposed cotton balls. This way, you can maximize your yield. Cotton is typically planted in April. In general, it takes 150-180 days from planting until cotton is ready for harvest. If you live in an area with warm temperatures in the spring and summer, your cotton should be ready for harvest by the end of July. Do this if you live somewhere with very warm springs and summers. Local weather and growing conditions cause the cotton to develop faster or slower depending on your particular region. If your cotton is not ready for harvest in July, let it grow until the bolls open up. This on average occurs throughout the fall if you live in an area with more mild spring and summer weather.

TL;DR in English: Harvest your crops when the bolls open up and expose the fluffy cotton. Start harvesting cotton in July if you live in warm climates. Pick cotton through November if you live in cold climates.

If you react to your own stuttering with fear and panic, it will be difficult for you to talk to girls. One way to get over your fear is to intentionally practice stuttering with people you feel comfortable around, such as your parents or a close friend. This is called “voluntary stuttering” or desensitization. Voluntarily stuttering gives you the sense that you’re in control of your stuttering.  Talk to a close friend or relative for about 5 minutes, and stutter on purpose at least 5 times in a clearly noticeable way. Stutter in the very first part of the conversation to put your stuttering in the open right away. Go to a fast-food restaurant or store, and intentionally stutter when asking a question or giving your food order. The goal with these exercises is to practice feeling confident through a stutter. This won’t eliminate your stammer, but it will help save you from feeling terrible about stuttering when you’re talking to a girl you want to impress. One of the challenges of stuttering is that you’re likely to feel confused, embarrassed, and unable to think when a stutter comes up. One way out of this is to stretch out the initial sound of a word (where the stutter usually occurs), allowing you to pull through the stutter to the rest of the word.  For example, in the word “soda,” intentionally linger on the s-sound, and gently pull through to the o, as “s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-oda.” Repeat this practice with your parents, or a trusted friend, intentionally slowing down the consonants at the beginnings of words. For example, ”Wwwould yyyyou like to go out for ddddinner tonight?" Try challenging yourself by intentionally stuttering on words or consonants that tend to be difficult for you to say without stuttering. If you’re so intent on getting through your own speech without stuttering, chances are you’ll miss out on what a girl has to say. She’ll notice this, and assume that you’re not interested in her - which might be far from the case! By learning to pay close attention to what she’s saying, you’ll be a...

TL;DR in English: Practice voluntary stuttering. Practice stutter modification. Improve your listening skills. Find a support group.

You can engage the different muscles in your body without using or disturbing your broken wrist. To strengthen the muscles in your legs, do simple squats and lunges and keep your arms neutral on the sides of your body.  Do squats by standing in a wide stance, facing forward and keeping your back straight. While pushing your hips and butt back and knees slightly forward, squat down until your thighs are slightly past parallel to the floor. Remember to keep feet and knees pointed in the same direction. Your knees should never extend beyond your toes. Straighten and repeat.  Do alternate lunges by stepping forward with one leg. Then, lower your body by flexing the hip and knee of the front leg until your rear knee almost touches the floor. Return up and lunge forward using the opposite leg. Although many back exercises require the use of dumbbells and weights, you can do bodyweight exercises that can be done with a broken wrist.  Do bridges by laying on the floor on your back with your arms resting next to your body. Keep your feet flat on the floor and knees bent. Slowly raise your bottom up until your knees and shoulders form a straight line. Remain in this position for 10 – 15 seconds, then lower and repeat.  The dart is another exercise you can do with a broken wrist. Lie down on your stomach and keep your arms extended toward your feet next to your body. Lift your upper body and legs off the floor at the same time using your back muscles. Count to 10 – 15, relax, and repeat. Abs are easily worked with a broken wrist when you choose exercises such as twists and crunches.  To begin with crunches, lie flat on the floor with your lower legs on a bench. Keep your arm with your broken wrist on your side at all times, and bring your other arm up behind your neck. Raise your upper body from the mat by contracting your abdominal muscles. Raise your torso as high as you can while keeping your lower back on the floor. Bring your torso back down, and repeat.  With twists, both your arms are extended out to each side...

Update your wardrobe for current trends. Organize a shopping trip. Give away any clothes that you don't wear. Mix and match clothes

Couches are made of many different materials, and while some can be cleaned safely with water, others require special cleaning solutions. Have a look at the upholstery tag on your couch to look for the letter code W, S, SW, or X:  W, S, and SW mean you can clean the couch with water- or solvent-based cleaners. X means you can't clean the couch with water or solvents, so you'll have to take it to a professional to clean the blood. Before using any cleaner on your couch, you should always perform a spot test to ensure the cleaner won’t bleach the fabric, make the color bleed, or otherwise damage the material. Perform the spot test by applying cleaner to an inconspicuous area and letting it sit for 24 hours. Cleaners you may need to spot test for your couch are:  Rubbing alcohol Hydrogen peroxide Soap and water solution Upholstery cleaner Use a soft-bristled toothbrush to gently scrub the area and loosen any dried blood that may still be on the surface of the material. This will make the stain easier to clean. After brushing, wipe the area with a dry cloth to remove flakes of dried blood. Dampen a clean cloth with cold water or rubbing alcohol. Wring out the cloth to remove excess liquid. Dab the stain with the damp white cloth to saturate the area with liquid.  Use only cold water to blot the area, as hot water can set the stain. It’s important to use white cloths to clean the couch, otherwise dye from the cloths may transfer to the couch. Water is safe to use for couches marked with W and SW letter codes. Alcohol is safe to use on couches marked with S and SW codes. Use a fresh cloth to blot the area and remove excess blood and liquid from the couch. Be sure to blot rather than rub, as rubbing can push the stain deeper into the couch and make it harder to clean. Keep dabbing until the cloth comes away dry.

TL;DR in English: Check the care label. Spot test your cleaners. Brush away excess blood. Blot the area with water or isopropyl alcohol. Dab the area dry.

Have 2 or 3 people help you lift the wrapped piano on the piano board onto the dolly. The flat shelf of the dolly will be about 3 inches (7.6 cm) high, so you’ll need to lift the body of the piano at least that high. Make sure to center the piano on the dolly so that it won’t tilt off on one side or the other.  A sturdy 4-wheeled dolly will be able to hold the weight of a large, heavy piano as it’s wheeled from stage to moving truck. Do not attempt to move a grand piano with a 2-wheeled dolly. You could offer your friends pizza and beer after the move is completed to entice them to help you. Move slowly, and have 2 or 3 people help you roll the piano on the dolly. Keep the piano balanced and upright as you wheel it across sidewalks and the asphalt surface of the parking lot to the waiting moving truck.  If you need to move the piano down stairs, you could lay a piece of plywood on the stairs for the dolly to roll down. Remember to put safety first, and keep the piano from tipping over or rolling on someone’s foot. Wheel the piano and dolly up the loading ramp into the moving truck, and then lift the piano off of the dolly. (Or, if the dolly has wheel locks, keep the piano on the dolly and lock the wheels) Keep the piano in its vertical position. Then, use 3 or 4 buckle straps to secure the piano firmly to the wall of the moving truck.  You’ll need to set the wrapped legs and lyre in the moving truck too, but these can be placed just about anywhere. You could even set them on the passenger seat in the cab with you. It’s best to rent a moving truck when moving a piano. Even if the piano would fit in a large pickup truck bed, you won’t be able to strap the piano vertically to the side of the truck. If you don’t have time to properly disassemble, pack, and move the piano, you can contact a piano-moving company and have them do it for you. These companies are highly specialized and move only pianos, so they’re skilled at what they do. Look for a piano-moving company on the Piano Movers Network directory:...

TL;DR in English: Set the wrapped body of the piano on a sturdy dolly. Roll the piano to a moving truck. Strap the piano firmly in place. Hire a piano moving company.

The first thing you should do is make sure that you’re sleeping properly. When you don’t get enough sleep, your brain doesn’t work as well and all the studying in the world isn’t going to make a difference. You’ll have to put the parties and hanging out aside for a while until you feel better about your studying.  New scientific studies have shown that when we sleep, our body goes through a sort of cleaning cycle where our brains get flushed of all the bad stuff that shouldn’t be there. When you don’t get enough sleep, this bad stuff builds up and makes your brain work a lot worse. Adults need around 8 hours of sleep while teenagers need 10. Children ages 12 and under should get 11 hours of sleep. Experimenting to see how many hours of sleep you need is a good idea. Everybody is different so don’t feel the need to strictly follow a guideline. Eating a healthy, balanced diet is also important. Your body needs lots of different nutrients in order to work right and when you don’t have those nutrients, it can be hard to focus and absorb information. Eating balanced meals doesn’t just mean eating a lot of kale (although kale is really good for you). It mostly means making sure that you’re eating a lot of different foods in healthy proportions. You have to adjust for your particular lifestyle, but a good balance to start with is:  30% vegetables. Lean towards dark greens like kale, chard, spinach, and broccoli, since these have more nutrients in them. 20% fruits. Try to choose nutrient-rich fruits, like citrus fruits and kiwi, or fruits which are high in fiber, like apples, pears, and bananas. 30% whole grains. Choose nutrient-rich grains like brown rice, quinoa, and oatmeal, and look for whole grain products whenever you do eat any grain. 20% protein. Try to choose lean proteins when you eat meat (turkey, chicken, and fish) and complete proteins when you eat other protein-rich foods (you’ll need to mix foods like nuts, lentils, and beans to get a complete protein, or eat whole soybeans like soy nuts and edamame)....

TL;DR in English: Get plenty of sleep. Eat balanced meals. Drink plenty of water. Wear comfortable clothing. Use caffeine carefully.

Being fashionable requires a bit of creative improvisation. Experiment with new looks and disregard anything that you don't feel comfortable with.  Updating your wardrobe can seem like a daunting task and can easily get expensive, which can be difficult especially if you’re still growing and don’t have a lot of extra money, but you can do a lot with a little. Separate your clothes into two categories: clothes you like and wear, and clothes you don’t wear. Clean out your wardrobe by donating or selling the clothes you don’t wear. Then take a look at your “keep” pile. Note which clothes are fashionable and which ones aren’t. This will help you start to build a base for your updated wardrobe. Ask a parent, older sibling, girlfriend, or any fashionable friend to go shopping with you. They might be able to offer advice and pick out some great clothes for you.  Your siblings or your friends will be able to give you advice on what works or doesn’t work for you and can help you pick out something that you might not on your own. Create a list of clothing items that you need as staples. For example, you may want to get one pair of jeans you can wear for almost any occasion, a pair of chinos, a casual button down shirt, dress shirt, and a sweater. Often times we hang onto clothes that don't fit or we hardly ever wear. Gather up these clothes and donate them to a charitable organization or sell them to a resale shop. Be prepared that your parents may be reluctant to throw out clothes that still fit you.  If your parents are reluctant to let you get rid of the clothes you already have, you can try selling them to earn your own money for new clothes. Just make sure that you are upfront with your parents. Being a teenager can make it hard to find the right fit since you may grow several inches in just a few months. Check out consignment stores for cheaper clothes, or shops like H&M and asos, which offer plenty of trendy items at lower prices.  Shopping at stores that offer lower prices can also help you to convince your...

Empty the lint screen. Unplug your dryer. Move your dryer. Remove the tube. Vacuum out the vent. Put everything back in place.

The most straightforward way to lose your voice is simply to use your voice box until it can't be used any more. Vocal activities like talking, shouting, singing, etc. require the vocal cords of the larynx to vibrate smoothly - with overuse, these cords can become inflamed, interfering with your ability to do these things. Try talking constantly at as loud of a volume as is reasonable for wherever you are. With persistence, your voice should eventually begin to fatigue. The more you talk the better!  If you're looking for opportunities to talk loudly and at great length, try signing up for a public speaking class or simply holding conversations in a crowded bar or club. Singing can put serious demands on the vocal cords - singing at a high volume or in a very low or high register, even more so. These dangers are amplified if you're not a trained or experienced singer. So, for a sure-fire way to ruin your voice, try singing at full volume in a vocal register that's difficult for you.  Obviously, you'll want to make it a point to avoid performing warm-up exercises before you sing. If you're embarrassed to sing loudly, try singing in the car with all of the doors closed and the windows rolled up. Other motorists will assume you're just singing along to the radio. Though it's not uncommon for people with colds to cough until they lose their voice, you don't necessarily have to have a cold to cough. Any kind of repeated coughing will irritate your larynx and eventually cause inflammation that can lead to losing your voice. Try combining your coughs with one of the other methods in this article for maximum effect. As with shouting and singing, excessive coughing in the long term can cause lasting pain and damage to the throat. As discussed above, a dry throat is a throat that's easy to wear out. To speed up the process of losing your voice, allow your mouth and throat to dry out by keeping your mouth open throughout the day. This will work especially well if you live in a dry climate. If you're worried about how...

TL;DR in English: Talk, talk, talk. Sing. Cough. Keep your mouth open. Don't drink water. Consume acidic foods and/or dairy. Drink very cold water.

So you're not content with the basic ideas above? In this section, we'll discuss some more "out-there" ideas for covering your binder. For example, if your binder and the cover are different colors, consider using a negative space design for a striking effect.  Negative space is the area that surrounds an object. Playing with both negative and positive space in your picture will help bring balance and interest to your design.  To create a negative space design, take a blank cover and cut shapes, letters, pictures, and so on into it — the binder underneath will show through and appear to give these shapes their own color. If you're worried about the holes in your cover allowing your binder to wear, cover them with clear packing tape. You'll still get the negative space effect, but your binder will be well-protected. Ever notice how chewing gum usually comes in a shiny foil wrapper? If you have a lot of these wrappers lying around, you can use them to give your binder a cool metallic sheen. Gently flatten the gum wrappers and stick them to your binder cover (or the binder itself) with a small amount of glue. Repeat until the whole surface is covered. Voila—a metallic binder.  If you're having a hard time getting the wrappers perfectly smooth, try rubbing them with a coin or the front of your fingernail to smooth them out. You can also use clear packing tape here as well to put a clear protective layer over your wrappers. Don't throw away your calendars after the year is over — instead, use the photos or artwork inside as a cover. Simply cut the picture out, lay it on your binder, trim the edges to fit if necessary, and cover it with clear packing tape to secure it. This thick, durable tape is great for protecting your binder and can give it a semi-metallic sheen. You can also find a wide array of color selections. If you don't want to stick the tape directly to your binder, try making a "sheet" of tape by sticking two layers of tape so that their sticky sides face each other.  Making basic designs like...

TL;DR in English: Use negative space designs. Make a metallic gum wrapper cover. Use old calendar photos for big, gorgeous images. Make duct tape patterns. Add your favorite quotes. Give your binder an aged look. Bedazzle your binder. Make a collaborative cover with your friends.

An education and the right amount of money are not all the ingredients of a successful property manager. You should get a feel for the everyday life of a property manager by working as one for someone else. This will also expand your network of colleagues in the industry. The more you prepare for your career, the smaller the learning curve later on. Once you have built up some experience and income, find a good time to invest in properties. You will need a considerable amount of money, which will likely have to come from elsewhere. The two best ways to raise this money are by either finding investors or taking a loan.  Take a loan. Banks are a good place to look for a loan to buy houses. Some banks even specialize in funding real estate ventures. Gather your credit information and meet with a few banks to see what they are looking for, and what they expect from you. Find investors. Using the connections you made, ask around to see if anyone is interested in investing in a new property manager. When making pitches to potential investors, make sure you name the specifics: what exactly they are investing in, who is involved, exact financial numbers, why you make a good manager. Besides the financial limitations of new property management, you don’t want to stretch yourself too thin while you are still getting off the training wheels. Look into buying 1 or 2 properties and expanding from there, when you feel comfortable. Properties are listed in various places such as the internet, newspapers, or even with your realtors’ association. Based on the properties you own, some listing methods may be better for finding renters than others. Renters in college towns generally look on the internet first, while families or professionals may check with realtors. Make sure you evaluate their ability to pay rent on time, cleanliness, and credit history before agreeing to rent them the property. If you are renting in the vacation rental industry, it is possible to attract renters through your own website, and/or through...

TL;DR in English: Get experience managing others’ properties. Raise capital. Look for available properties. Find renters. Keep meticulous financial records. Know state and local laws. Consider using a software company to help with your property management. Maintain your properties.

To start, empty out the lint screen the same way you would after doing laundry. You should do this each time you do laundry. When cleaning the vent, check the lint screen first and remove any small amounts of lint. It's always good to start with a clean lint screen when cleaning your dryer. Never start cleaning a dryer vent while the dryer is still plugged in. This can be extremely dangerous. Find where your dryer's cord is plugged into the wall. Disconnect the plug. The dryer vent is found behind the dryer. You will need to pull your dryer away from the wall to clean your vent. Sometimes, very heavy dryers cannot be moved. It may also be hard to move a dryer if you have limited space in your laundry room. In these cases, you may need to hire professional cleaners. If your dryer is very heavy, find someone to help you. The dryer vent is a hole that runs through your wall. There will be a tube connecting the dryer to the vent, attached to the wall with screws. Use a screwdriver to remove the screws. Then, remove the tube from the wall so you can access the vent.  The type of screwdriver you need varies. Examine the screws to see if you need a Phillips or flathead screw driver. Keep the screws in the same place. You will need them later to reattach the tube. Take your vacuum cleaner's nozzle attachment. Vacuum out the vent that runs into the wall, sticking the nozzle into the vent as far as it will reach. Then, vacuum out the tube running into the dryer, again vacuum the tube as far as the nozzle reaches. You should remove a great deal of lint this way. If you do not have a vacuum cleaner, use a flexible dust brush with an extendable handle. You can also use compressed air to blow lint out of the dryer vent. Reattach the nozzle running from the dryer in the wall by placing the screws back in place. Then, slide the dryer back into place. Plug the dryer back in. Your dryer should be ready to use now and, as the vent is clean, you should see a noticeable improvement in drying times.
