This will help you to be physically tired at night. Your body will also release endorphins which will calm you emotionally.  Exercise can also wake your body up, so it is best to do it earlier in the day. If you can chose between going to the gym in the morning and in the evening, try going in the morning. Don't exercise less than 4 hours before going to bed. Adults between 18-64 years of age should get at least 150 minutes of moderate intensity exercise every week for at least 10 minutes at a time.  Make sure children that have trouble sleeping get enough exercise. This will help them to be tired at night. Caffeine-free teas that contain chamomile or valerian can help start the process of relaxing you before bed. Look for teas containing these calming ingredients or teas labeled for "sleepy time." This is a great way to clear your mind and relax your body so you can fall asleep. Once you are in bed and in a comfortable position:  Breathe in through your nose and out through your mouth. Close your eyes and focus on feeling your breath as it moves through your body. Visualize its path through your mouth and nose, into your lungs, and back out again. Notice where you carry tension in your body. As you exhale, consciously relax those areas. If your thoughts return to your worries, acknowledge them and then focus again on your breathing. In this method you give your mind something to focus on other than the stresses of daily life. What works for you will be highly personal. It might be a favorite place, an imaginary location, doing an activity that you enjoy, or telling yourself a story.  Slowly imagine the scene in as much detail as you can. For example, if you are imagining a beach, visualize the waves, listen to them crashing onto the shore, hear the seagulls calling, and image how the saltwater smells. Feel the breeze blowing and the warmth of the sun.  If you find yourself returning to the stresses of your daily life, remind yourself that you will deal with it tomorrow and refocus on the imagery. It may take...

TL;DR in English: Exercise during the day. Drink a calming tea. Do breathing exercises. Use imagery. Try progressive muscle relaxation. Ask your partner to give you a massage. Read a calming book. Write down stresses or worries. Stop trying when you can’t sleep.

It is easy to overeat when the portion size is too large. The key to eating a normal and healthy amount at each meal is to focus on the portion size, including how much food you cook, how you serve it and how much you put on your plate.  One way to easily reduce portion sizes is to simply cook enough only for the servings needed. For example, 1 serving of pasta is about 2 oz, 56 grams, or about 3/4 cup. Measure out the amount before you put it into the pot. Or, you can use a food scale to weigh out the exact grams of food for your serving. Do not simply cook the entire pasta package. Your protein (fish, steak, chicken, etc) should be no bigger than the size of your fist. Make sure you fill up your plate with veggies (they are healthy and low calorie). Do not keep serving trays or bread baskets on the table; this can encourage eating extra food even after you’re full. Use smaller plates. If you eat from a smaller plate you will serve yourself less food and eat less food overall. Studies show that people serve themselves more food when the color of the food is the same as the color of the plate (alfredo pasta on a white plate). Make sure the food you are eating does not match the color of the plate you are eating it on. An easy way to have different colored plates and make sure the plate doesn’t match your food is to buy a bunch of different plates from a thrift store. Just looking at appetizing foods can lead to overeating in certain individuals.  Stash the cookies. Stick to your list at the grocery store, or order groceries online and have them delivered if you get tempted at the store. If you see a food you want, think twice about it, and rehearse something you can say to yourself like, “I don’t need this, and want to be healthy.” Research suggests that individuals who overeat and have high sensitivity to reward, also eat a high fat and high sugar diet. High fat diets may even promote overeating, and increase the likelihood of abusing food. Eating foods higher in fat actually makes you feel less full than...

TL;DR in English: Reduce portion sizes. Eat off of a different colored plate. Remove unhealthy foods from your home. Eat a diet low in fat and sugar. Plan ahead.

Every music genre has its own rules regarding beats. Know what you're writing for and how those beats are usually structured. This is what gives a particular type of music its "sound". Start off with something very basic: four beats per measure (a sort of musical sentence), and eight measures long. This will give you a reasonable structure to start with. When the beat gets to the end of eight measures, it should be able to loop back to the beginning and sound okay. For a beginner there are two ways to do this:  Have very short, identical beat sections (da da da DA! da da da DA! etc.).     Have a general section which builds in the final measure and crashes back down to the basic beat of the first measure (think that drummer hitting all of his drums really fast before going back to a normal beat).    This will provide the main "beat" for your loop. Think of it as the baseline for your beat. A note on every fourth beat should do the trick. This will be the more noticeable drumming beat. You will need to come up with a pattern for this, usually by messing around (sorry, even the pros have to mess around until they find something that sounds good). Once you've got a basic structure from the bass line and the melody, you can add in effects. These are occasional instruments which add just a little flavor to your beat. Don't add in like forty instruments. This will just make your beat sound way too busy. Remember: the beat is only background noise to make the real music sound better. You want to feature your song, not the beat.

Knees should be bent. Start slowly, at first, for safety. If you want to turn clockwise, you will be sliding on your left foot. If you want to turn counterclockwise, you will be sliding on your right foot. Your foot should be perpendicular to the direction you are traveling. This will create friction against the floor. Hold this position until you come to a stop.  Straighten the leg and angle the wheels so they slide on the floor. This friction is what will cause you to stop. Keep the other leg bent at the knees as the skate rotates approximately 180 degrees. All your weight should be on this leg.

Take a good, long look at your financial situation. Review your expenses, savings, investments, and debt. If your financial picture isn't as pleasant as you'd like, make a personal commitment to improving your relationship with money. Admitting that things aren't all that great is a necessary step, as it's hard to make changes if you're in denial about your habits. The best way to get your finances under control is by knowing where every single coin is going. Track your spending for a while before mapping out a feasible budget for you and your household.  Start by writing out how much income you have coming in and how much your monthly expenses are. Then, look at the difference and make adjustments as needed. For example, if you are hoping to save more, you might cut back on your expenses or get a part-time job to bring in more income. A budget isn't a “set it forget it” kind of thing. You'll need to see if you're spending too much or if your money is going to the right places and then re-adjust regularly. Prioritize your budget around what's most important to you. For example, if you value having a nice home, set money aside for home décor and improvement projects. Simplify your life and cut out expenses wherever you can. For example, do you really need an elaborate cable TV package? Can you save gas money by walking or taking the bus instead? Once you know where you stand financially, set SMART goals for improving your financial picture. Your goals should be specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, and time-bound.  For example, you can't just say you want to reduce frivolous spending. Instead, set a specific goal like “cut spending by 20% within the next 3 months.” Make saving money one of your goals. If you have a cushion for when things get tough, you won't have to worry as much the rest of the time. If you feel overwhelmed about your financial picture, access resources in your local community or online that can help. Many local libraries often sponsor personal finance courses led by trained financial...

When you are training your Great Dane puppy, you should keep your sessions short. They should last no longer than five minutes at first. Your Great Dane puppy will have a very short attention span, so you need to make sure you can keep his attention by having short training sessions. As he gets older, you can increase the length of your sessions. Make sure you stop your training sessions on a positive note. Once you notice your Great Dane puppy getting distracted, go ahead and quit your session. End it by requesting him to do a simple command that you know your Great Dane can perform. This way, you will be able to praise him at the end of the session. This will leave your puppy feeling happy with himself, which will make him a happier dog. Your Great Dane will eventually get used to the treat and reward schedule that you developed in the beginning. When this happens, you should make your schedule and methods much less predictable. Instead of giving a treat every time you Great Dane does something right, skip a few to keep him guessing.  This makes him wonder why he didn't get a treat and will make him work harder in the future to get the next treat or reward. Over time, skip two or three instances that you would typically reward until you are only rewarding every fourth or fifth behavior. This will be far enough apart for him to work for it but close enough together to encourage good behavior. When you reward your Great Dane, try to vary the types of treats you give him. These treats don't have to be food related and can vary depending on your or your dog's mood. Try bites of food, dog treats, praise, or play time with his favorite toy.  Your Great Dane will let you know which activities he likes the best. This may be tugging on his favorite chew toy or eating a bite of his favorite treat. You should also use different treats on different days.

TL;DR in English: Keep training sessions short. End on a positive note. Make treats less predictable. Change up the rewards.

Expect the muscles in your face to affect other neighboring ones whenever they contract or expand. Use this to really feel how your ears move in relation to other facial features. Try to isolate the muscles in and around your ears as you do. As an experiment, raise your hand. Curl your fingers into a fist and squeeze. Most likely you’ll feel the muscles in your forearm tighten without you having to command them to. These may possibly have the strongest and most direct effect on your ears’ muscles. To see how, look to either side of you without turning your head or neck. Concentrate on your ears as you do. Chances are that you will feel one or both pull back. You’ll probably look a little crazy, but go with it and just go nuts with your eyes. Look in all directions, roll them around, or anything else that comes to mind. Feel how each action might tug your ears forward or push them back. If you can raise one eyebrow at a time, do it. If not, raise both. Then furrow your brow like you’re really mad. Alternate between the two and vary speeds. Keep your focus on your ears and how their muscles respond. Grin like you’re the Joker, nice and wide. Lift your cheeks as you do. As before, concentrate on what your ears do in response so you can isolate the muscles there.

TL;DR in English: Locate your ears’ muscles by flexing others. Dart your eyes from side to side. Move your brow muscles up and down. Smile.

This shouldn't be about badgering people to take you on, but more about providing help where it is needed. The ubiquitous DofE Volunteering choice, these are a good option. They could usually use some help, and you can arrange your work timings and days with them more or less when you'd like them. However, these are pretty popular, and so you should probably move fast! Many Local Council's also have a team responsible for coordinating volunteers as well as Youth Workers that should be able to work with you to find an opportunity. Don't be put off by the myriad of departments on a Council website, ring the main switchboard number and the operator should be able to connect you to the right person. They are often in need of help, especially with their younger members. However, some groups require you to be a member of the Scouting/Guiding movement, and their meetings may last quite a bit longer than an hour. Remember that there are many different branches of these organizations, which could be a better choice if you have a particular skill, e.g. Sea Scouts or Air Scouts. Search around in your area for people who are currently looking for some assistance. Some good places to offer your aid would be at a school for the disabled, or an old people's home, for example.

TL;DR in English: Find a person or organization in need of help. Apply to a local charity shop. Talk to Scout or Guide groups. Look for people in need of help.

These products trap some of the minerals in your water during the wash. Make sure the product is "non-precipitating" — you may need to search online to find out. Avoid "precipitating" conditioner, which leaves scale on fabric and washing machines. Once you've picked a product, add it to laundry as follows: Add a second batch of conditioner during the rinse cycle. Without this, all the minerals will just latch back onto your clothes. reat hard water spots with vinegar. Distilled white vinegar can remove white spots on fabric, drains, or porcelain from mineral buildup. Apply plain or dilute with an equal amount of water, scrub away the problem, then rinse. This temporary solution can get tedious if scale builds up quickly. If your water is only slightly hard it might be a cost-effective approach.  Towels can also become stiff due to hard water. Treat them the same way. Vinegar can bleach some types of fabric and damage stoneware. Some people add ½ cup (120mL) vinegar to the rinse cycle in their water, while others claim this can damage the rubber seals on your machine. Consider checking with your machine manufacturer.

The first step to reducing at-home entertainment costs is ditching cable TV. Instead, choose an online streaming service. Subscribing to one of these companies can give you access to hundreds of movies, TV, and original content for usually lower cost per month. Review your most recent cable bills and find a streaming service with a lower monthly fee.  Popular video streaming services include: Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, Hulu, and Acorn TV.  If you're attached to a certain channel, look for a service that allows you to stream specific channels online (like Sling TV, CBS All Access, HBO Now, or Select TV). Instead of purchasing every song you listen to, try a music streaming service. Most services operate as an online library filled with songs that users can hear without downloading. Although these services often have an ad-free subscription for a low cost, many also offer free options.  Try well-known streaming services like: Pandora, Apple Music, Soundcloud, Spotify, Slacker, and iHeartRadio.  Test out a free trial before purchasing a subscription. Whether you're a bookworm or a casual reader, a library card can save you hundreds on at-home entertainment. Books (paper, audio, or electronic), movies, magazines, newspapers, and music are all available for free or a minimal annual fee. Some libraries even rent out video games or hobby supplies (like cooking tools or board games). Libraries also offer free community events like children's read-alongs, book clubs, personal development workshops, or holiday celebrations. You don't have to shell out your paycheck to get the latest game release; opt for a game rental service to play at a reduced cost. This option is especially ideal if you tend not to replay games and want to avoid reselling for less than the game is worth. Some services (like Redbox) offer games for a minimal daily fee while others (like Gamefly) operate on a monthly subscription model like movie streaming services.

Ten gallons per inch of your turtle is a general rule. 50 gallon (189.3 L) minimum for a baby turtle (younger than a year old) and 120+ for an adult. Make sure that you have a general idea of the size your turtle will reach when full grown so you are not blindsided with keeping a turtle you cannot maintain.  Decide on a land or aquatic turtle. Common turtles like box turtles will require a desert like landscape. If you want an aquatic turtle make sure there is dry land and adequate room to swim, and that your enclosure is sealed enough to hold water. A turtle needs a canister filter. A Rena Filstar XP3 or XP4 is highly recommended in keeping a turtle healthy.  Without good filtration your turtle can get extremely sick as old food and feces can build up. Even with proper filtration, you'll need to regularly change your turtle's water. When you change the water, make sure that the filter is not clogged. If you see waste or old food lingering in the filter, it may cause a clog that prevents it from filtering the water properly. You can buy a dechlorinator or water conditioner at any pet store. Remove everything from the tank including all of its basking spots and empty the water. Wash everything with warm water and anti-bacterial soap. Let rocks sit in warm water and soap. Wash the soap out thoroughly. Let the tank sit until it is dry.  Put everything back in and fill the tank with clean, non-chlorinated water. If it is a land turtle, make sure to replace with clean substrate on the bottom of the tank each time, such as sand, wood chips, or newspaper.  How often a clean is necessary will depend on how messy your turtle is. It is generally a good idea to do this at least twice a month. Make sure to wash your hands thoroughly after cleaning the tank. A proper diet for Red Eared Sliders and similar species should have the following proportions: Vegetables and water plants 50%; Commercial foods 25%; Live protein 25%. A turtle under a year old should be fed every day.  A turtle over a year old should be fed every...

In a small bowl, pour 1 cup of salt. Add 1 cup of vinegar. Stir well so the salt soaks up all the vinegar. Continue stirring until the mixture is smooth and even.  Add a 1/2 cup of lemon juice and mix thoroughly to give your paste some extra declogging-power thanks to the juice’s acidity. If the clog is located deep within the pipe, or if you're leaving the lemon juice out, add more vinegar for a thinner mixture so it travels more easily. First, remove the drain's stopper. Then pour the mixture directly down the drain. Coat the entire drain so the whole clog is sure to absorb the mixture. Allow it to sit for 15 minutes so the clog can absorb as much as possible. For especially stubborn clogs, let the clog soak for 30 minutes. If you are unable to remove the stopper, add more vinegar to the mixture before pouring so it's thinner. Boil 2 cups of water with a kettle or pan. Then pour the water directly into the drain. Pour slowly to avoid splash-back, which may scald you. Also pour slowly so you can aim the water directly into the drain instead of splashing the basin, which may absorb the heat and cool the water on contact before it reaches the clog. Use boiling water instead of running hot water from the tap, since it may take a while for the hot water to kick in.

To achieve tight ringlets, you will need to set your hair in small sponge rollers. The first row of rollers will go down the center of your head staring at the front of your scalp and ending at the nape of your neck.  Use a comb to section off a vertical segment of hair at the front of your scalp. This first section should be centered on your head. Do not make it longer than the curler itself or thicker than the curler. A section that is too long or too thick will not remain tightly curled. Unclip your first roller. Place the roller behind the section of hair. Slide the roller up the strand from the roots to the tips so that the hair is standing straight up. Tuck the ends under the roller and proceed to twist it down towards your scalp. Continue to section off your hair and set rollers down the center of your head until your reach the nape of your neck. Once you have completed the top section, you can set rollers on the right and left sides of your head. Work from the front to the center back of each side of your head. Section of the hair and set the rollers as you did for the top section—don’t forget to roll away from your head. Everyone’s curls will set at different rates. If you wet set your hair, leave the rollers in overnight and allow your hair to air dry. If you put rollers in your dry hair, you may opt to leave them in for anywhere from 15 minutes (for a slight wave) to 5 hours—your ringlets will become more defined the longer the rollers are left in your hair. After allowing your curls to set, remove the rollers one at a time. Comb your fingers through the ringlets to fluff and separate the curly strands. Finish your do with a spritz of hairspray or a small dollop of pomade. Brushing or combing through your ringlets will cause them to snarl.

These layers of resin are intended to improve the look of the part, not the strength or functionality. Allow each layer of resin to set up before putting on the next layer. This can take anywhere from a few minutes to hours, but you will be able to tell because the resin will get tacky (sticky) when it is ready for the next coat. Once you have applied three to seven layers of resin, it is time to sand it. You should sand out any imperfections in the resin, like dust particles or uneven surfaces. Take care not to go through the resin, if you sand the fibers underneath you will destroy the part. After you have sanded the imperfections out of the resin, you can polish it. You can buy a polish appropriate for your resin at the same retailer that you purchased the resin. Apply the polish with a clean, soft rag, and wipe it off with another clean, soft rag. This will give the part a nice shine. Make sure that there are no cracks or other deformations on the part. If the part is damaged, you will have to start over and make another part.

Clear your mind of work, school, kids, the news, or anything else that distracts you. Some of the ideas that come to you may seem corny, even to yourself, but that is the way love is, sometimes. Then, see if the big things are combinations of little things, and can be broken down that way.  Here are some examples of "she is beautiful" (other qualities may be broken down the same way).  Her hair is soft and smells sweet. Her lips are full and sensuous. She has a full, womanly figure. (Which may be broken down even further.) She has lovely, iridescent blue eyes. Her smile can light up a room. If you are making your list secretly, take mental notes to write down later. They may notice things or qualities that you really love, but are not even aware of. You may appreciate the absence of criticism, complaining, or other negative qualities.  These characteristics, being absent, do not lend themselves to obvious recognition. This may clue you in to things about them you never think about, but miss when they are not present.  This could be the scent of their hair or perfume, or the sound of their voice. This may be adrift from the "romantic" ideas, but these are qualities you may value greatly, when you consider them.  Things like cleanliness, punctuality, or moderation. Often, you may find you associate other things only when you remind yourself deliberately. You may even try to forget it, but later on, when you take it out, or even rediscover it, you may be surprised by how you take many things on the list for granted. Will they see it as a shallow, superficial gesture?  That may depend largely on the things you choose to list.  On the other hand, they may be flattered and happy you have spent so much time thinking about them.

TL;DR in English: Get a notebook and pen or pencil, and commit to yourself to keep it with you while you reflect on the qualities of the person you love. Set a time each day to simply reflect on the person you are writing about. Be honest with yourself. Think of the big things. When the special person is around, look thoughtfully at them, taking note of anything that gives you a warm, tender feeling. Listen to what their friends say. Give thought to the things the person doesn't do. Think about what you feel when the person is absent. Try to remember the practical points. Write all the things you think of in your notepad, then reread them, to see if they lead you to more discoveries about the person. Make your finished list, read it carefully, then put it away for a while. Think about sharing your list with him/her.

If you didn't have a professional cut your wood, use a circular saw to cut them to size. Mark of the end to be cut with a pencil and ruler. Afterward, pull the trigger on the rear handle of the saw and use your dominant hand to guide it across your wood while holding it firmly with your non-dominant hand. Always apply downward pressure to the wood with your non-dominant hand to keep the wood steady. Find a flat, open surface—such as a garage floor—and lay down 4 pieces of 2 by 2 inch (5.1 cm × 5.1 cm) wood into their frame shapes. Make sure the width pieces connect the length pieces vertically rather than horizontally. Now is the time to take note of any imperfections (such as a piece that's too long) and adjust them. Be sure you have enough frame pieces for your aviary plan and make sure each pair of height and width pieces are parallel to each other.  For a frame piece with a width of 20 inches (51 cm) and a height of 24 inches (61 cm), start by laying down the left and right length pieces. Afterward, connect them via the top and bottom width pieces. Don't attach your wood pieces before laying them into their frame positions first. Use a pair of tin snips to cut four 2 inch (5.1 cm) long pieces of plumber's tape for each wood piece of the frame. Align each one horizontally at the top and bottom corners of the length pieces and across to the width pieces. Now, drill two 1 inch (2.5 cm) screws through piece of tape each to fasten them into place to create an assembled frame piece.  Make sure 1 inch (2.5 cm) of each piece of plumber's tape is attached to each piece of wood. You can swap plumber's tape with corner connectors and drill them in using screws. However, this is more expensive and time-consuming.

TL;DR in English: Cut your 2 by 2 inch (5.1 cm × 5.1 cm) wood pieces to the necessary size. Lay down your wood pieces into the rectangular shape of each frame. Attach each wood piece together into frames using plumber's tape and nails.

Psoriasis remission occurs either spontaneously without any known cause or due to the right treatment. If you find the right treatment, your symptoms may temporarily disappear, which will put you into remission.  Finding the right treatment may take some time. Work with your doctor to try different treatments until you find one that works for you. The dosage and treatment prescribed by your doctor may affect how you achieve remission. When you find a treatment that puts your psoriasis into remission, it may work for a while. However, your body may adjust to the treatment or what you need for your condition may change. This means you may have to change treatments after a while. Work with your doctor to continue treating your psoriasis. If your symptoms return even while you are under the same treatment that has been working, your doctor can adjust your treatment to try to find one that will put you into remission again. If you find the right treatment, you may achieve remission. However, remission is only a temporary state for your psoriasis. Even if your symptoms go away, they will more than likely return. If your symptoms start to return, begin treatment again immediately. Early treatment can deal with the symptoms before they get too severe.

Curly hair doesn’t behave the same way that straight hair does, and you need a stylist who understands that. Ask your curly-haired friends and family if they have a stylist they would recommend, especially if you love their hair style! You can also run a search online specifically for curly hair stylists.  Try searching for options like, "best curly hair stylists in Portland" or "curly hair stylists in Atlanta." Use websites like Instagram and Facebook to find local stylists. Look through their pictures to see if you like the results of the cuts that they do. You can even stop curly-haired strangers if you like their style and ask them who their stylist is. Once you find a stylist you're interested in, meet them in person. Most salons offer free consultations so you can decide whether a stylist is a good fit for you before you book an appointment. Give the salon a call and inquire.  Consultations are usually about 15 minutes and should be booked in advance.  Look up customer reviews of hair salons to see if they have satisfied customers. Be sure to ask the stylist about their experience cutting different types of curly hair. Pay attention to how confident the stylist sounds about your hair type. If you don't feel comfortable, or if the stylist sounds hesitant, you may want to keep looking.  Ask questions like, "Do you have a lot of clients with curly hair?" You could also ask, "What would you do to make my curls more defined?" or "What cut do you think would work best for my texture?" Bring along pictures of styles you like to show the stylist during your consultation. The consultation should be hands-on. The stylist should touch your hair and examine your scalp so they can really understand your unique curls. Curls stretch out when they're wet, which can make it hard to get the length just right. Although there are some great stylists who wet-cut curly hair, dry cutting is preferred by most curly-haired styling experts.  A good stylist may want to wash your hair in the salon and allow it to air-dry so they...

TL;DR in English: Search for a stylist with experience cutting curly hair. Schedule a consultation to meet the stylist before you get a cut. Ask plenty of questions during the consultation. Choose a stylist who dry cuts to avoid having your hair cut too short. Beware of stylists who want to brush out your curls while they're wet.

Spell check can easily save you lost points for misspellings. This should be your first step in editing your essay because you can have your word processor do your spell check and then take the provided suggestions. Always reread your sentence to make sure that the word processor is suggesting the right word. If you’ve misspelled a word that is similar to another word, then it’s possible that your spell check could suggest the wrong spelling, such as “then” instead of “than.” Take a break from working on your paper. It’s a good idea to give your mind a break, so consider taking a walk, stretching, or taking a bath. Then reread your essay looking for misspelled words, grammar errors, or typos.  Look for errors that your spell checker missed. If you can, ask someone else to proofread your paper. They will usually spot errors that you overlooked. As you reread your essay, make sure that your ideas flow well. You may need to add additional commentary or rewrite sentences to make it flow better. You may also decide to add in additional transitions, such as “additionally,” “also,” “at the same time,” or “similarly.” As you revise your essay, double-check that you’ve addressed your thesis throughout.  Combine choppy sentences. Breakup long, convoluted sentences into shorter sentences. Rewrite fragments and run-on sentences. Consult your assignment sheet or syllabus to see what formatting conventions your instructor prefers. Adjust your margins, font size, and spacing accordingly. Add your heading and page numbers. If you have cited sources, make sure that you include a reference page in the style chosen by your instructor.

TL;DR in English: Use spell check. Proofread your essay. Revise your essay to improve the flow. Fix your formatting.

Since you use your non-dominant hand less often than your dominant one, its muscles are much weaker. This makes it harder to write well with your non-dominant hand. Increase this hand's strength by doing hand exercises that work these muscles and improve your dexterity.  Warm up and stretch your hands before working them out to avoid injuries and pulled muscles. Doing bicep curls with dumbbells strengthens the muscles in your wrists and forearms. Squeezing hand grips specifically targets your hand muscles. Something simple like squeezing a stress ball will also help strengthen your hand. Do this while you’re watching TV or on your daily commute. Many instruments require coordination between both hands to operate. Play one of these instruments to improve your overall dexterity and get used to using both hands together.  Guitar, for example, requires you to strum with one hand and fret the strings with the other. Since both hands need to work together, this activity improves your coordination. Other choice include bass guitar, piano, and drums. On many stringed instruments, you can flip them upside down and play them the opposite way with your other hand. When you get proficient enough, try this exercise to further strengthen your non-dominant hand. Any activity you do with your non-dominant hand strengthens it and gets your body used to using it. This will benefit your writing. Start doing more activities with your non-dominant hand to train yourself to use it in your daily life.  Try brushing your teeth and holding a fork with your non-dominant hand. Buttoning your shirt with your non-dominant hand is a good exercise that requires more precision. Don’t do activities that could be dangerous if they aren’t done correctly. For example, driving with your other hand isn’t safe until you’re very proficient with it.

TL;DR in English: Do exercises for your non-dominant hand. Learn an instrument that requires both hands to play. Use your non-dominant hand for more daily tasks.

Start by figuring out specifically what industry your chosen company is in. Industries are split up into categories by the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS). These are numbered categories and refer to a broad industry within the North American economy. NAIC's numbers can be found easily online. Then, do research to assess the size of the industry. Look for annual industry revenues and the number of companies in the industry. In addition, find figures on industry growth, including annual percentage growth and growth in the number of companies. In order to assess the company, you will need some basic information on its competitors. Start by obtaining a Standard & Poor's Industry Survey for the company's industry. This report contains financial information for the largest companies in the industry and ranks them by size. You can also get historical industry surveys going back to 1971. This information can be obtained on the S&P Global Market Intelligence website. Look for any barriers, trade agreements, regulatory rulings, or other government decisions that might be affecting the industry either now or down the road. These regulatory rulings can be either positive or negative in their effects on an industry or specific companies. Look for regulatory news on market websites like the Wall Street Journal and Bloomberg. Look into industry growth, trends, and expectations for the future. For example, consider any new products or types of products that might transform the industry in the coming years. Or, perhaps the industry is shrinking as another slowly replaces it. Look for consolidation or expansion in the number of companies in the industry. How these factors affect your chosen company can vary dramatically, but it is important to understand what's going on in the industry.

TL;DR in English:


Know your motives for dating multiple women at once. Find women who are looking for something similar. Take it slowly. Allow for your needs to change.

Roll out an oval and smooth the clay. The smoother you can make your clay in the beginning, the easier it will be to form your face.  Depending on the size of your sculpture, it may be difficult to roll out a ball. If you're making a small sculpture, it shouldn't be a problem. However, if you're making a larger sculpture, you may need to sculpt out a neck as well.  Keep in mind the proportions of your subject as you form the oval. You'll be adding clay to make the other facial features, but the oval should resemble the basic shape of your subject's head. An alternate method to making the basic shape of a face is to create a silhouette based on your subject's profile.  Print out a profile photo of your subject. Make sure the photo is the size you want your sculpture to be.  Roll out some clay about as wide as you'd like the nose on your sculpture to be. Lay it flat on a clean surface. Make sure you have enough clay make a full profile.  Take the profile cut out and lay it on your slab of clay. Trace the profile onto the clay and cut away any excess clay.  This should leave you with a slab of clay that is a silhouette of your subject.  Start adding some clay to thicken the neck so you can stand your sculpture up as you add width to form the face. Using a needle or a rubber-tipped tool, draw a fine vertical line down the middle of the face. This is your line of symmetry. Draw a horizontal line halfway down your line of symmetry to mark where the eyes will be.  Halfway between the eye-line and the bottom of the face, make a second horizontal line. This is where you will place the nose. Make one last line halfway between the nose-line and the bottom of the face to mark where the mouth will go.

TL;DR in English: Form a ball. Try making a clay silhouette. Add guidelines to mark out proportions.

Saving a ball from the net is easy, if you have great reflexes. When the ball hits the middle of the net and bounces back, run and penguin slide to the ball at last resort if you cannot get to it in time. NEVER slide on your knee pads as this is harmful to your knees. Set up like you are going to bump, but not until the last second. Then, shrug and hit. watch the ball hit the net. Run, slide, and bump. Try to bump it behind you for another teammate to hit over. Do this by bring your arms farther back (like a miniature swing of the arms), or arching your back as you make contact with the ball.

TL;DR in English: Position. Hands and arms. Do this move,

Staying properly hydrated will help your muscles recover faster. Drink at least two bottles of water before you work out, and drink half an ounce of water per pound of body weight throughout the day. Avoid drinking tea and coffee because these will dehydrate you. Before doing anything that is ab intensive, you should avoid sitting or standing for too long. Take 5 minutes before your workout to put your legs up while you lay on your back. This will ensure blood flow to the upper portions of the body.  The blood flow will help flush the muscles. Protein is a very important factor in muscle recovery. Be sure to eat a protein rich meal (about 20 grams) within 30 minutes of your workout. Protein bars and shakes are an easy way to get this amount of protein on the go.

TL;DR in English: Hydrate well. Raise your legs. Re-fuel your body properly.

There are many reasons you might be dating more than one woman. You may have just gotten out of a long, difficult relationship, or you may be someone who is naturally polyamorous.  It’s good to know whether you imagine dating multiple women as a long term plan or as something that simply suits you right now. It’s okay not to know what you want in the long term. But be ready to be honest about that with the women you’re dating. If you’re looking for long-term polyamory, look for other women who are also interested in that. If you are simply looking for hookups, try to find women who want that as well.  Most online dating apps allow you to state what you’re looking for. If you’re looking for hookups, don’t get involved with women who are looking for marriage. If you’re looking for hookups, don’t plan elaborate getaways or very romantic dates with a woman, or she may get the wrong idea. If you’ve never dated multiple women before, you need to spend some time getting used to balancing more than one relationship. Don’t try to go from being monogamous to dating five women at once. You can read books or blogs about polyamory and other lifestyles that accommodate dating multiple women. Over time, and depending on who you meet, your interests may change. If they do, be honest with yourself about your feelings. Don’t try to deny them, or you and others are likely to get hurt.  If you begin to fall in love with one person, or multiple people, you may need to have a serious conversation about that with all of the people you’re dating. Having strong feelings for someone doesn’t have to mean you stop dating the others, but it may mean that the relationships change in some way.

TL;DR in English:


Be confident in your own mind. Be confident in your own heart. Be confident in your own mind. Be confident in your own heart. Be confident in your own

Wear clothes that make you feel comfortable. Act confident even if you don’t feel so. Do small things to help others. Try not to stress if you don’t meet anyone on your first day.

During the abdominal palpation, the vet feels the bitch's tummy for the presence of puppies. The earliest date that this is likely to be successful is at least 21 days after mating. At this early stage the vet is feeling for an enlarged, thickened womb rather than puppies (which are like small blobs of jelly at this point).  The best time for abdominal palpation is day 28. This is because the puppies are now big enough to make a "bump" in the womb, much like beads strung along a necklace. By day 35, the each puppy is surrounded by his own fluid capsule and the vet feels something akin to a fluid string of sausages. Bear in mind that at 28 days each puppy swelling is a maximum of 25 mm (1 inch) in diameter, making it difficult to differentiate embryos in a womb from food in the gut or feces in the bowel. Furthermore, if your dog is tense and braces her belly wall, it can be impossible to feel anything worthwhile–the equivalent of trying to see through a window that has been painted over. Likewise, a single puppy can easily be missed, or mistaken for another structure such as the bladder, a kidney, or even feces in the bowel. Don't feel too frustrated with the veterinarian when she suggests a pregnancy test, as the abdominal palpitation can be inconclusive. The blood tests looks for high levels of the pregnancy hormone, progesterone. To be reliable, this test should be done after day 28. Before this it's possible to get false positive results, because the high levels might be a result of delayed decay of the hormone present during ovulation. However, after day 28, high levels of progesterone confirm pregnancy. Ultrasound scans are a popular way of confirming pregnancy, because in the hands of a skilled operator small changes in the womb can be detected as early as 18 days. The other advantage is that the technician may be able to give you an idea of how many puppies are in the litter, which is useful to know when it comes to the birth, or whelping.  Placental units can be visible from day 18, and from day 28...

TL;DR in English: Have an abdominal palpation to look for initial signs. Understand that abdominal palpitation can be problematic. Do a blood test after day 28. Have an ultrasound for early detection. Understand why radiography (x-ray) is not recommended.

You can't choose the right eating plan until you know what you want to achieve with your diet. Are you looking to lose weight, control your blood pressure, accommodate a medical condition, or something else? Write your goals down, as well as your reasons for wanting to achieve them. Keep a list of your goals with you. That way, when you meet with a doctor or dietitian, you can explain to them what you want to accomplish. Fad diets such as a Paleo or Keto diet are typically no more beneficial than a holistic eating plan involving balanced and regulated caloric intake. Look for an eating plan that makes it easy for you to get a controlled, balanced diet that can accomodate your eating preferences.  Research different dietary plans such as the DASH diet, the Mediterranean eating plan, or different calorie-restrictive plans. Weight loss typically occurs on any plan that creates a calorie deficit, so look for a plan that can help you track your calorie intake and still accommodate the foods you enjoy.  For picky eaters, tracking calories and macronutrients may be more appealing than signing up for any form of diet plan, as this allows you more flexibility in what you eat. Generally, a balanced plan is around 30% protein, 30% fat, and 40% carbohydrates. Try eating exactly as you normally would, but cut down your portion sizes. Eating 500 less calories a day will allow you to eat the foods that you like and also lose about a pound a week. For help tracking calories and macronutrients, you can use an app that counts your calories for you simply by inputting the food and the portion size. Look over your “yes” foods and think about ways you can incorporate these in dishes with different types of healthy ingredients. Go for moderate amounts of foods you enjoy, and higher amounts of foods that offer you nutritional variety such as fruits, veggies, and lean proteins.  For example, crumble a strip of bacon into Brussels sprouts to create a dish that has a flavor you enjoy and lots of vitamins and nutrients. Top your burger...

TL;DR in English: Set your goals. Look into different eating plan options. Pair food you enjoy with healthier foods. Prepare healthy foods in familiar ways. Add different flavors to healthy food you dislike. Look for micronutrients in your food. Go for higher quality food.

To request a copy of a corporation's articles of incorporation, you'll need the official legal name of the corporation. Look it up in the business name database on the website of your state's secretary of state to make sure you've got it correct. Double-check the name you find and cross-reference it with any other information you have to make sure it's the right name for the corporation. Many states have specific forms for you to fill out to request corporate documents, including a corporation's articles of incorporation. These forms typically are available from the office of the state's secretary of state. You may be able to download the right form online. Put information about yourself and the documents you want. Include an address where the secretary of state's office can mail your documents. Some states don't have an official form you can use to request corporate documents. In that case, you can write a basic business letter that includes information about the corporation and the documents you are requesting.  Include your name and an address where the secretary of state's office can mail your documents. Some states provide an expedited service that allows you to have the documents faxed to you, but you'll pay additional fees.  Specify if you need more than one copy, and whether all copies need to be certified. If you need more than one copy, you may need to pay a separate fee for each copy. Search online for the government department or agency in your state where corporate documents are held. You can also find out by contacting an agency or organization dedicated to small businesses or consumer rights. In most states, you can get copies of corporate documents, including the articles of incorporation, from the office of the state's secretary of state. In other states, these documents are kept by the state's treasury department. The state secretary of state's office has a specific address you'll use to mail a written request for a corporation's articles of incorporation. To find out the fees, look on the...

When you feel comfortable, you’ll feel more like yourself. This will make you more confident, which will help give you the courage to start talking to others.  Don’t try to wear trendy clothes or stylish shoes if they don’t make you feel comfortable. Wearing clothes that you’re not comfortable in will just make you even more nervous on your first day. Wearing clothes you like will also draw the attention of people who like the same style of clothes. Acting like you’re comfortable in your own skin can actually make you feel and appear more at ease. To act confident, stand up straight, smile, and try to make eye contact with other people. Or, try acting like someone who seems self-assured. Try to focus on things that are happening around you instead of yourself. This will also help you feel less self-conscious and more confident. Showing someone else kindness or helping them can make you feel better about yourself. Doing a bunch of small acts of kindness will help build your self-confidence.  For example, try to give a compliment to at least 1 person on your first day of school. Helping someone pick up something they’ve dropped can also give you an opening to make friends. Smile and introduce yourself as you hand the item back to them. Making eye contact and smiling at someone is another great way to spread positivity. The first day is nerve-racking for everyone. Everyone will be anxious and busy learning their new schedules. Many people will be too nervous to start talking to others. Stay patient and try to make friends on the second or third day of school. If you do something embarrassing on the first day of school, try not to worry about it. Laugh at yourself and try to move on.

Dry mouths tend to hold more odors, so have some water or another beverage before you smoke. This will not prevent your mouth from smelling like cigarettes, but it may lessen the strength of the smell. Cigarette breath is a tell-tale sign that you have been smoking. Make sure you thoroughly brush your teeth after smoking, and use a mouthwash as well. This will also help to remove the cigarette taste from your mouth. Smoking also causes you to be at a much higher risk for mouth disease, so adequate oral hygiene is a good idea all around. If you don’t have time to brush your teeth, make sure you have mints or gum to help cover up the smell of smoke on your breath. They won't remove the smell, but they might be able to cover it up. Even if you do brush your teeth, the mints and gum will help to further freshen your breath. Coffee will help to mask the smell of smoke on your breath. If you don't have coffee, look for tea or soda that have strong scents. These will help to cover the smell of cigarette smoke. Citrus is a strong scent and eating oranges will help to cover the smell of smoke on your breath. Peeling citrus fruits, especially smaller juicier ones like mandarins, satsumas, or tangerines will help to remove the smoky smell from your hands.

TL;DR in English: Drink water before you smoke. Brush your teeth. Chew mints or gum. Drink coffee or another strongly-scented beverage after smoking. Peel and eat oranges to mask the smell of smoke on your breath and hands.

This is always the first step when loading or handling any gun. Consult your weapon's instruction manual to locate the safety feature. Common shotgun sizes are 10, 12, 16, 20, .410 bore, and 28. Shotshell of one gauge may be fired in a shotgun of another gauge, but doing so requires a special tube. Otherwise it is best to just select the proper sized ammo for your weapon. You can also secure the stock under your arm with the gun turned sideways. Make sure that the trigger and trigger guard are positioned on the side of the shotgun facing away from you. The "business end" of the shell should be pointing toward the end of the gun barrel. The business end is the end of the shell that the shot comes out of and is opposite the metal capped end of the shell where the explosive charge is housed. When it clicks, the rim of the shell should have passed the magazine catch. You can tell the tube is full when you attempt to load a shell but it won't go in. This will strip a shell from the magazine and load it into firing position. The shotgun is now ready to fire.

TL;DR in English: Make sure the safety is on, the chamber unloaded, and the barrel pointed away from you in a safe direction. Determine what gauge (bore diameter) your shotgun is so you can select the right size shells. Place the butt of the stock on your left thigh while sitting. Place a single shell against the loading flap just ahead of the trigger guard. Using your thumb, push the shell straight up into the loading flap until you hear and feel a distinct click. Repeat until the magazine tube is full. Hold in the action release button and pump the slide backwards and then forwards with a reasonable amount of force to load the chamber.

hower regularly. Cleansing your body regularly is an important part of a good hygiene routine. You should try to shower once or twice a week, as showering once a day can end up actually drying out your skin. You should also shower if you end up sweating a lot, such as after a workout or after spending a hot, humid day outside.  Make sure you wash the areas where you sweat the most, including your armpits, genitals, and breasts. You should also keep your feet clean and wash them in the shower. Use a washcloth and soap to clean between your toes and under your feet. After you wash your feet, dry them thoroughly. This helps prevents conditions like warts or athlete’s foot.  Wash your hair. Your hair type will determine how often you need to wash your hair. Finer, thinner hair often requires more frequent washing. Wash your hair when it becomes visibly oily and stringy. Finding how long you can go between shampoos may take a bit of experimentation, but it will help you build up your natural hair oils, and keep your hair strong. To keep your mouth clean and encourage fresh breath, you should brush your teeth twice a day. Brushing your teeth helps to remove food and plaque that can cause cavities. In addition to brushing your teeth, you should get in the habit of flossing once a day.  Brush your teeth for at least two minutes, once in the morning and once at night. Try using a timer or listening to a song all the way through each time you brush. Soft bristled toothbrushes are best because they won’t damage your gums.  When you brush your teeth, hold your toothbrush at a 45-degree angle to your gums, and brush with short, up-and-down strokes. Brush the outsides and insides of your teeth, your back molars, and your tongue. Choose fluoride toothpaste. Toothpaste with fluoride helps strengthen your enamel. If you do choose a toothpaste free from fluoride, be extra intentional about your oral hygiene routine. Avoid long-term use of whitening toothpastes, as these can be abrasive on your teeth. . Regular hand washing...

TL;DR in English: . Practice good oral hygiene. Wash your hands Take good care of your skin Groom yourself Prevent body odor

The tender forms of Zantedeschia are mainly cultivars of Z. elliottiana and Z. rehmannii (also called Elliottiana hybrids and Rehmannii hybrids), but may also include Z. albomaculata and Z. jucunda. These are often referred to as calla lilies. These can be recognized by different flower colors other than white and spotted leaves. These species and their cultivars are not so adaptable to soggy soil and can't stand frost. They are best grown in well-drained situations like in a flower bed with perennials and annuals or in a container. Treat as annuals or dig/move the bulbs indoors at fall before the cold weather sets in.Thanks to plant breeding, there are also hybrids of these two groups which can be hard to tell. Check with a website or plant expert for specifics.

TL;DR in English:


Toss ingredients into a food processor. Process the ingredients. Add the oil. Refrigerate. Try some variations.

Use Vietnamese rice noodles. Go vegetarian with quinoa or tabbouleh. Make a lower calorie classic.

Turn on the hair dryer and use it to blow hot air over the dent and the surrounding area for one to two consecutive minutes. The hair dryer should be set to medium and should be held between 5 and 7 inches (12.7 and 17.78 cm) away from the car's surface. Do not overheat the area in order to prevent the paint from becoming damaged due to overheating. Place a sheet of aluminum foil over the top of the dented area. This step should only be performed if you are using dry ice instead of compressed air. The purpose of this step is to keep the area warm while also protecting the paint from the dry ice, which can potentially damage the topcoat. The gloves will protect you from frostbite and other injuries that can occur when your skin comes into contact with dry ice or liquified compressed air. The rapid change in temperature from warm to cold will cause the surface of your vehicle to first expand (when heated) and then contract (when cooled).  If you are using dry ice, grab a block of the ice with one hand, then gently rub it over the aluminum foil resting on top of the dented area. If you are using a can of compressed air, turn the can upside down, and spray the surface of the dented area to cover the area with a layer of liquid ice. There are some basic principles of science at work here:  the pressure, volume, and temperature of a gas are all interconnected. While normally the can loses temperature as the gas is released, if you spray the can upside down the gas itself is cooled.  Either method will only require a brief application. The surface panels of most modern vehicles are made of relatively thin and lightweight material and they will cool very quickly. You will likely not see any change after the first 30-50 seconds of application (or probably even sooner than that). A few moments after you have applied the dry ice or compressed air, you may hear a popping sound that will indicate the dent has been removed. The rapid temperature shift will usually make the material reform its original shape.  If you used...

TL;DR in English: Apply heat to the dented panel. Insulate the dented area of the panel (if applicable). Put on the heavy-duty gloves. Apply the dry ice or liquified compressed air. Wait for a little while. Repeat the process as needed.

Pour all the ingredients into a food processor. Do not put the oil in yet. Keep it aside. The addition of mayonnaise is what makes the dressing creamy. Use the food processor to combine the ingredients until they are smooth. Continue processing until the onion is completely pureed. Slowly add the oil into the dressing as you process it. The dressing is best if served chilled, but can be served immediately. Store in an airtight container for up to a week. Some other spices and flavors you can add to the dressing include 2 teaspoons of lemon juice and 1 teaspoon of paprika. You can also try 1 teaspoon of Worcestershire sauce.

This could mean anything-- do you go to the same school? Are you neighbours? In virtually every circumstance, there are plenty of opportunities to get on that person's radar. A great start is to put yourself in his general area. Find out what events he'll be attending, or where he eats lunch. The more you're around him, the more opportunities you'll have to interact with one another. The universal gesture of kindness, there is nothing so simple and profoundly effective in winning your crush as a smile.  Whenever you see her, make sure to flash her a smile! While it might be hard if you're shy, you should find it gets easier very quickly. The reaction will almost certainly be positive. If, for whatever reason, she doesn't smile back, don't worry about it! There could be a number of reasons she didn't reciprocate the gesture. You may have caught her off guard; it's also possible that she's simply shy. Interpreting her actions as a sign she's uninterested in you should only be a last resort. It sounds simple, but you might be surprised how many people tend to overlook this easy, though crucial step. Once you're in his vicinity, there should be plenty of opportunities to say hello. Don't feel self-conscious in doing this; very seldom does anyone respond negatively to a simple act of attention and positive feeling. There are a virtually infinite number of ways you can do this. Look to your surroundings and circumstances for something general to talk about. For example:  If you've got a class together: "Hey, would I be able to share notes with you? I want to see if I missed anything." If you're at a library/theater: "Any books or movies you could recommend me?" If you're at a sports game: "Hey! Which team are you part of/rooting for?" At a party: "Hey! How did you hear about this party?" A crucial, common mistake to make is to be too modest about your feelings. If you don't show signs of attraction, she might not get the impression you are interested in her. Although you want to make sure not to get direct with it...

TL;DR in English: Seek out opportunities to be around him. Smile! Introduce yourself by saying "Hi". Break the ice with her. Make your attraction apparent to your crush. Set up an opportunity for deeper interaction.

Perfect for spring roll wrappers or lettuce, rice noodles are low in calorie and filling.  Toss 1/2 cup of cooked rice noodles with your favorite Asian dressing or sauce. Divide the rice noodles in half and layer each half into a butter lettuce leaf. Top each lettuce leaf with 1/4 cup of cooked ground pork seasoned with salt and pepper. If desired, top your lettuce wraps with 1 – 2 tablespoons shredded carrots, a few leaves of cilantro and a sprinkling of toasted sesame seeds. Put a Mediterranean spin on your wrap by adding in some quinoa or tabbouleh.  These whole grains are high in fiber and protein and can help keep you satisfied longer.  Lay out a whole wheat pita bread and top with 1/2 cup of premade tabbouleh. Top with 2 tablespoons of a shredded parsley and basil.  Then sprinkle on 2 tablespoons of feta cheese. Tucking the ends of the tortilla in, roll up until the wrap is completely closed.  Slice in half and enjoy. A very common and tasty wrap is the buffalo chicken wrap; however, it's usually filled with fried chicken strips and high-fat blue cheese.  Try this version for a lower calorie wrap:  Smear a 12" whole wheat tortilla with 1 tablespoon of light mayonnaise and top with 3 – 4 oz of sliced grilled chicken strips and 1/4 cup of packed down and shredded romaine or iceberg lettuce. Drizzle on 1 – 2 tablespoons of buffalo sauce, 1/2 ounce of blue cheese and two to three diced cherry tomatoes. Tucking the ends of the tortilla in, roll up until the wrap is completely closed.  Slice in half and enjoy.

Pour vodka into a glass. Add activated carbon to the vodka. Allow the vodka to soak for 7-30 days. Strain the carbon from the vodka.

Create a fresh baking smell. Spray lemon water. Make an air freshener with essential oils. Make an air freshener with perfume oil. Bring out some aerosols.

Before you begin working on your essay, it is crucial to understand what the assignment is about, and to learn if there are any specific rules you need to follow. Read your assignment thoroughly, and assess what you need to do. For example:  Does your essay need to answer a specific question or questions? Is your essay supposed to present a critical analysis of a source, such as a book, poem, film, or work of art? Is the objective to demonstrate your ability to present an original argument based on research? Have you been asked to compare and contrast two ideas, events, or literary or artistic works? Different instructors have different expectations regarding formatting. Check your assignment carefully for formatting guidelines. These might include things like line spacing, total essay length (in words, pages, or paragraphs), font size, page numbers, or requirements for cover pages and section headings. If the formatting requirements aren’t on your assignment sheet, check the course syllabus or ask your instructor. Depending on the subject matter and the personal preferences of your instructor, you may be required to use a particular citation style. In the US, for example:  Essays on subjects in the social sciences usually use APA-style citations. Essays on subjects in the humanities, such as literature or history, typically use MLA or Chicago Style. Essays on medical or health-related topics may use the AMA style, while other sciences have their own discipline-specific styles. The basic rules for most common citation styles are readily available online. For more detailed information, look for a style guide in your school library or bookstore. Don’t be afraid to ask your instructor any questions you may have about the assignment. Most instructors are happy to explain anything that might be unclear, or offer advice on how to approach the assignment. Unless you have been given a very specific assignment, you will probably need to pick a topic to focus on. Before you start writing, figure out what the main point...

TL;DR in English: Read the instructions carefully. Make note of any formatting requirements. Pay attention to citation style requirements. Ask for clarification if you don’t understand something. Narrow down your topic.

Some glass makers use punty rods to hold a glass piece during the crafting process. When it’s removed, it leaves a mark called a pontil mark. Fenton uses snap rings, so most of their pieces will not have a pontil mark.  Pontil marks might look like a chip in the glass, a bumpy lump, or a dimple in the bottom of the glass.  Fenton has created some offhand glass pieces which do have a pontil mark. These include some very rare pieces from the 1920s and a few contemporary hand blown collections. Study the pictures in your books to familiarize yourself with Fenton’s style. By studying existing pictures, you’ll be able to identify characteristics which distinguish Fenton from other manufacturers.  For instance, if you find a carnival glass dish featuring a peacock, you can distinguish it from other manufacturer’s of the period by noting that in a Fenton piece, the peacock’s neck will be completely straight, while others curve slightly. The base will have a flat, collared surface, or it may have a ball or spatula feet. The edges are often smooth, bracketed, crimped, or ruffled, and are one of Fenton’s most recognizable characteristics.  Fenton primarily produced carnival glass, which has an iridescent sheen, although some of their pieces are opalescent glass, which is translucent. Fenton also specialized in a form of glass known as Hobnail, which is covered with small button-like bumps. Fenton glass is extremely high quality, and it should be free of air bubbles or other flaws. If your piece has obvious manufacturing flaws, it is unlikely to be Fenton glass. Due to similarities between manufacturers, it can be very difficult to tell the difference between some pieces. If you aren't able to tell after examining your piece, look online to find a Fenton dealer or an antique dealer in your area who specializes in Fenton glass.

TL;DR in English: Check the bottom of the glass for a pontil mark, which Fenton doesn't have. Purchase a collector’s book or find a Fenton glassware catalogue. Pay special attention to the bases and edges of Fenton’s glass. Look for bubbles or flaws in the glass, which Fenton shouldn't have. Contact a Fenton dealer or an antique expert if you still have questions.

The main ingredient in liquor polishing is activated carbon, though adding your carbon to a full container of vodka may cause your container to overflow. You'll also have to strain the carbon out at some point, so you'll need:  Food-safe activated carbon (3-5 cups (1,020-1,700 g) depending on the amount of liquor being polished) Container (freezer safe) Funnel Strainer/colander You'll want a container that is larger than your amount of vodka, otherwise, when you add your carbon, you might lose some vodka to overflow. Place your funnel in the container, and pour your vodka from its original vessel into the container. Impurities in alcohol, like aldehydes, amino acids, and oils are likely the culprits making your cheap vodka taste foul. Polishing alcohol is the process of soaking it for a length of time in activated carbon to remove these impurities.  Rinse your activated carbon in a colander/strainer under cold water to remove any dust that may have formed on it during the packaging and handling process. Add 1 cup (340 g) of food-safe activated carbon per 1 gallon (3.8 L) of vodka. At minimum, you should allow your vodka to soak in the activated carbon you've added for a week. For even better results, you can allow the vodka to soak for a month, though after a few months you'll reach the carbon's limit and see little change in quality.  Shake the vodka in its container for a few minutes every day to ensure the consistently filtration throughout the mixture. Keep your vodka in a cold location, like your freezer, to make the impurities in it easier for the activated carbon to absorb. A regular kitchen strainer should be sufficient to catch your activated carbon while letting the vodka drain through into a container. You may want to nest your strainer into your funnel so the vodka flows directly down the nozzle of the funnel and into a container, preventing lost liquor.

TL;DR in English: Gather vodka polishing materials. Pour your vodka into your container. Add activated carbon straight to your vodka. Allow the vodka to soak for 7-30 days. Strain your carbon from your vodka.

Preheat the oven to 200°F (93°C). Put aluminum foil on a cookie sheet. Sprinkle cinnamon and sugar on the cookie sheet along with a one tablespoon (14.78 mL) butter. Turn off the oven and let the cookie sheet sit in the oven for 2-4 hours. This will make the house smell like you've just baked something tasty. Pour equal parts lemon juice and water into a spritzer bottle. Spray it around your home as needed. It will absorb the odors and leave a natural, chemical-free lemon scent. Combine ¾ cup (177.44 mL) of water and two tablespoons (29.57 mL) of vodka, rubbing alcohol, or real vanilla extract with 15-20 drops of any combination of essential oils that you enjoy smelling. Put these in an eight ounce (236.58 mL) spray bottle. Shake well and spray as needed Combine 2 1/2 table spoons of brandy (french brandy works best due to the caramel undertones), 20 drops of any perfume oil of choice, 5 drops of tea tree oil (for its antibacterial qualities), and ¾ cup of water. Put these in a 200ml (7 ounce) spray bottle. Shake well and spray as needed. If you can tolerate them, spray a commercial air freshener like Lysol, Febreeze, Glade, etc. Use these carefully, because they can be overwhelming. They will mask odors more than the homemade methods.

TL;DR in English:


Don't plant a butterfly in your garden. Don't plant a butterfly in your garden.

Offer protection butterflies can't refuse. Prepare a butterfly buffet. Grow native plants. Install butterfly feeders. Take notice of butterflies in other people's yards.

Fantasies are not necessarily an unproductive activity. In fact, your daydreams can tell you what you want in life. While you may not become a professional golfer or marry a millionaire, you can discover realistic goals. For example, if you frequently daydream about winning the lottery, you may be  worried about money. You may want to start more effective financial practices. The best way to achieve your dreams is to set realistic and achievable goals for your life. Break each goal up into a number of manageable steps, and give yourself a date to achieve each step by. Soon, you may find your fantasizing turning into action. If you want to save more money, you might give yourself a saving goal. Set a manageable amount of money to save by a certain date. You can also make goals to get a better job or to budget more effectively. It can be easy to slip back into fantasizing. To keep yourself accountable, tell your friends and family about your goals. Once other people know, you may work harder to not let them down. Ask a friend or family member to be an accountability partner. This is someone who checks in on you periodically to see how far you have progressed. If you find yourself unable to avoid fantasizing, you may want to visit a doctor or therapist for more help. These trained professionals can help you identify any medical conditions that could increase your fantasizing or help you understand the underlying causes of your fantasies.  If you find yourself unable to stop fantasizing or if you feel that excessive daydreaming is taking over your life, you may suffer from  maladaptive daydreaming.  If your fantasy helps you cope with abuse or trauma, professional therapy can teach you healthier coping mechanisms.

TL;DR in English: Use your fantasies to identify what you want in life. Set goals. Tell other people your goals. Visit a doctor or therapist for help.

This will evaluate if you can remove some or most of it. Touch-up paint that can be removed with a fingernail is generally not well applied, although it will make it that much easier to remove from the vehicle. If the paint is loose on the car door but too firm to remove using only your fingernail, try to get it off with a toothpick. Slide the tip of the toothpick under one edge of the touch-up paint, and pry the paint upwards. Keep going until you’ve removed as much of the paint as possible. If the touch-up paint is loose enough, or if it was applied recently, you may be able to remove all of it using a toothpick. When using your fingernail or a toothpick to scrape touch-up paint from the car door, do not scrape it too hard. If you do, you might scrape off some of the car’s original paint and make the blemish worse. If the touch-up paint doesn’t come off easily with your fingernail or a toothpick, move on to more rigorous removal methods.

TL;DR in English: Scrape the car touch-up paint gently with your fingernail. Pry the paint off using a toothpick. Apply only gentle pressure when scraping paint off.

Whether it's something as seemingly insignificant as taking the biggest helping of cake and leaving none left for your sister, or a more impactful decision like devising a way to get the attention of your best friend's boyfriend, never hurt someone else to get ahead. Doing this often enough will backfire on you. Seek out the selfless choice, even when it's also the hardest. Resist the temptation to cheat, steal, or pull the wool over someone's eyes, even when you're sure you won't get caught. Are you the type who gets impatient when you have to wait in line at the post office or grocery store? When you start feeling your blood pressure rise, remember that every other person in the room has a life just as valuable as yours. Their time is as precious to them as yours is to you. Keeping this in mind will help you act selflessly when impatience threatens to get the better of you.  Don't take out your problems on other people. Having a lousy day doesn't give you the right to make someone else suffer for it. Constantly putting your own friends or family's desires above the needs of the greater community isn't truly selfless. How can you best meet the needs of as many people as possible, rather than just helping out those closest to you? Be a good example to those around you and go for the option that's best for everyone. If someone crossed you and seeks forgiveness, do your best not to hold a grudge. The selfless approach is to try to see the situation from the other person's point of view, and realize that it's almost always better to foster peace, love and forgiveness than spitefulness and hate. Forgiving someone who has wronged you can be incredibly difficult, but it's also exquisitely selfless.

TL;DR in English: Don't hurt someone else for your own benefit. Don't value your time more than other people's. Choose the option that helps the most people. Forgive and forget.

Pollinators like butterflies often need a place to hide from predators, and a small tree or shrub can be just the thing to make your garden more accommodating. Some plants to consider:  Privet (Ligustrum vulgare) Dutchman’s pipe (Aristolochia macrophylla) New Jersey Tea (Ceanothus americanus) Certain plants are more widely popular among the different kinds of butterfly. No plant will appeal to all butterflies - not even butterfly weed (Asclepias tuberosa). Some plants to consider to attract more of your brightly colored friends to your garden are:  Butterfly Bush (Buddleja officinalis) Everlasting (Anaphalis margaritacea) Hollyhock (Alcea rosea) Passionflower (Passiflora) Willow (salix)  Don't forget to ask staff at your local nursery any questions you may have about planting and growing any of these flowers. Most of these plants are available at local nurseries at a reasonable cost. When butterflies try to lay eggs on non-native plants, their offspring have trouble surviving. Maps with a distribution of plants native to your areas can be found at http://www.wildflower.org/collections. These tiny structures are similar to hummingbird feeders in that nectar is provided, but the shape is more like that of a bat house. The small slots on the side allow butterflies entrance while deterring predators and providing shelter from the elements. There are many local factors that might be influencing butterfly populations in your areas, so if you see that a neighbor has a larger than average butterfly population in her garden, you may want inquire what she has planted or how she has her garden set up.

TL;DR in English:
