Access a rafter. Position a level against the underside of the rafter. Find the 12 inch mark on the level. Measure the vertical distance from level to rafter. Find the slope.

Whenever you catch yourself reflecting on the past or thinking about the person you're trying to avoid, refocus and think about your present and future. This will help motivate you to move on and set new goals for yourself.  Set goals such as getting in shape, learning a new skill, or advancing in your career. Think about the things that are currently going well in your life, such as your job, social life, academics, or personal health. When you love someone, it's easy to only think about their positive attributes, or the qualities that you love about them. By reminding yourself that they have flaws, it'll help shift your outlook and make it easier for you to stay away from them. For example, the person may be very kind, but maybe they also are always showing up late, have trouble keeping promises, or are a bit lazy. Put aside any thoughts you have about the person you love and are trying to avoid, and instead start focusing on yourself. Evaluate your own needs and spend some time reflecting on how you can make yourself happier, healthier, and more content.  Set aside time each day just for you, whether it's through reading each morning, doing yoga, or reflecting in a journal. Try out a new activity like boxing, cooking, or swimming. Try to fill your time with activities and goals, no matter how big or small. The busier you are, the less time you'll have to think about the person you love, making it even easier to avoid them.  For example, start a daily routine of going to the gym, reading, going to work, gardening, and then cooking a new recipe.  Try to choose distractions that get you out of the house and moving, such as going on bike rides, thrift shopping with friends, or volunteering.

TL;DR in English: Practice moving on and being in the present. Focus on the person's negative characteristics when you think about them. Put yourself first. Stay busy through distractions.

If you have a hard time balancing your work life and your personal life, it may seem impossible to add in time to reflect. However, reflection can take place anywhere at any time. Some mental health experts recommend taking time during daily tasks and errands to reflect, if you cannot commit to a longer period of reflection. The key is identifying little "pockets" of time that are otherwise wasted everyday, and dedicating that time to reflect, no matter how short the time span may be.  Reflect in bed, either right before getting up after your alarm has gone off, or right before you fall asleep when you're lying down for the night. It can be an invaluable time to prepare yourself for the day ahead (in the morning), or to process the events of the day (in the evening).  Reflect in the shower. It's an ideal time for reflection, as it may be one of the few chances for real solitude in your day. Being in the shower is also emotionally comforting for many people, which may make it easier to reflect on upsetting or unpleasant events and memories.  Make the most of your commute. If you drive to work and find yourself stuck in traffic, take a few minutes to turn off the radio and reflect on anything that has been troubling you or making you anxious. If you take public transportation, put down your book or headphones for a few minutes and let yourself reflect on the day ahead or the day you're coming home from. . It may be easier said than done, but one of the biggest factors in taking time to reflect should be stillness and, if possible, solitude. Let yourself  Relax, sit and breathe mindfully, and try to block out any surrounding distractions. That may be as simple as turning off the television, or as difficult as blocking out a cacophony of sound and chaos. Whatever your surroundings may be, allow yourself time to be still and alone, even if you can only be alone with your thoughts and not physically alone. Studies show that taking time to be still can have positive effects on your health and energy levels, and may...

TL;DR in English: Find time to reflect. Be still Reflect on yourself and your experiences.

One of the key steps in avoiding uncomfortable pain from holding a full bladder is to strengthen your pelvic floor muscles (which are located at the base of the bladder). By completing these exercises, you can strengthen your bladder and experience less frequent urges to urinate.   To find where your pelvic floor muscles are located, go to the bathroom and urinate. While you are peeing, try to stop urinating mid-stream. If you can stop, then you have found the correct muscles.  To complete Kegel exercises, tighten your pelvic floor muscles while you are sitting or lying down. Hold the contraction for five seconds and then release for five counts. Repeat this exercise four to five times. Continue to practice this exercise until you can tighten these muscles for ten seconds at a time. You should do three sets of 4-5 contractions each day. If you are someone who drinks large quantities of liquid in short spurts (such as after exercising or when you have a break during the day), then stagger your liquid intake so you are drinking smaller amounts of liquid throughout the day. This will relieve pressure on your bladder.  Keep a bottle of non-carbonated water by your desk and take a sip every 5-10 minutes. You should generally aim for 9 cups of water (or 2.2 liters) every day. Your bladder will become a stronger organ if you train yourself to urinate on a regular schedule. If you schedule regular bathroom trips every 2-4 hours, then you will experience less frequent urges to urinate at unexpected times. Studies have shown that excess weight and obesity can create an overactive bladder. If you are experiencing frequent urges to pee and are also overweight, try shedding some pounds to see if this will help relieve your symptoms.  You should always consult with your doctor to find the best way to lose weight. Generally, you will need a combination of moderate cardio exercise (running, walking, swimming, hiking), 3-4 times a week and a healthy diet of lean proteins, fruits, vegetables and whole grains. Avoid foods that...

TL;DR in English: Practice Kegel exercises. Regulate your hydration. Set a regular bathroom schedule. Watch your weight.

Measuring from the underside of the roof is usually the most accurate way to find the slope, since there is no roofing material to make an uneven surface. Any of the following will give you a good measurement:  A rafter in the attic. The overhang of a rafter at the end of the roof. A barge rafter at the side of the gable. Place one end of a carpenter's level against the underside of the rafter. Adjust the level until the bubble is centered between the two lines. If your level does not have inch marking, measure it with a tape measure and draw on a 12 inch mark. 12 inches is the traditional measurement in the U.S. If you don't have an imperial ruler, however, you can use any units. Just use the same unit for all measurements, and measure a length at least this size (12 inches / 30 cm). Extend your tape measure perpendicular to the level. Measure the distance from the 12 inch mark to the underside of the same rafter, directly above it. Make sure the level stays in position during this measurement. The slope of your roof is the ratio of vertical distance (rise) to horizontal distance (run). Just write down the measurements you found. There's no need to simplify them.  For example, if you find 4 inches of height with the tape measure at the 12 inch mark on the level, your slope is 4:12 or "4 in 12." Most people looking for "pitch" are really interested in this measurement. In technical terms, pitch has a different definition. If you're not sure if you have the right measurement, skip down to find the pitch.

Organic fruits and vegetables will not contain or have been exposed to chemicals or pesticides, and will not contain nitrates, which is a chemical harmful to babies under 3 months of age. If you choose not to buy organic fruits and vegetables, then do not buy spinach, carrots, green beans, squash, and beets, until your baby is more than 3 months old; as all these foods contain nitrates when they are not farmed organically. This will help ensure the baby food you make is high in quality. Use frozen fruits and vegetables in place of fresh fruits and vegetables if you cannot make them within 2 days of purchase. Foods with high-sugar content and ingredients such as corn syrup and honey can cause your infant to experience a fatal form of food poisoning known as botulism.

Use a small amount of isopropyl alcohol to remove dust, dirt, grease, and wax from the faux leather. Dampen a cotton ball and wipe the entire surface of the material. A clean surface, free from dirt and grease, will allow the paint to strongly adhere to the faux leather. Prepare a paint palette so you can easily and efficiently access your desired paint colors as you work. You can buy a wooden or plastic artist’s palette at an arts and crafts store, or you can use a sheet of aluminum foil, a newspaper, or a magazine to house your paint. Squeeze your desired paint colors onto your paint palette and add a few drops of acetone to the paint if you are working with acrylics. The acetone will thin the paint, making it smooth and easier to work with. Gently mix the paint and the acetone together with a small paintbrush. Be sure to only add a few drops or up to a teaspoon of acetone to your paint so that the paint does not become too watery.  Acrylic paint can dry quickly, so do not squeeze too much paint onto your palette at once. Gradually add a few additional drops of acetone if the paint is too thick. If you are painting a large surface in a uniform color, you will want to apply an even base coat of paint to the surface. Use the paint you selected for your project and apply it to the surface. This is ideal if you are working with furniture or clothing. Lightly press the sponge into the paint from your paint palette. Use long, vertical strokes to distribute the paint across the faux leather surface. Acrylic paint can dry rapidly, so you will need to work quickly if you are working with this medium. Focus on creating long strokes when painting a large surface to avoid creating streaks. If you are working on upholstery, plan to paint only one side at a time. Before adding additional coats, the paint will need to dry completely. Place the item in a safe place where it won’t be disturbed, damaged, or moved. Wait for about 15 to 20 minutes for the coat to dry completely. After the first coat of paint has thoroughly...

TL;DR in English: Clean the faux leather. Use a paint palette. Mix a small amount of acetone to your acrylic paint. Apply a base coat for large surfaces. Apply paint to one side of a sponge. Allow the paint to dry. Enhance the color with additional layers of paint.

Tags and categories make your story easily searchable on Wattpad. Use keywords that accurately describe what your stories are about. Mention genre, subject matter, main themes, and any other relevant tags and categories that will get your work to the right audience. For instance, if you write war fiction, use tags like "history," “WWII,” and “war." If you write for mature audiences, use tags and categories to make that clear. Depending on the nature of the content, you could use tags like "strong language," "mature readers," "adult fiction," and "sexual content." If you're writing for young people specifically, use tags like "YA," "teen fiction," and "young adult fantasy" to reach the right audience. To build your reader base, you need to publish regularly and consistently. Break up your story into smaller chunks, such as chapters or acts. Choose a schedule to upload your story, such as once a month or once a week.  Make sure you don’t miss an upload date, as this will hurt your number of readers. Life happens, and if you do miss a promised update on rare occasions, it probably won't mean the end of your Wattpad popularity. However, you should avoid doing this routinely as it can cause your readers to lose trust in you. Try to make sure your updates seem worth the wait each time, and especially when you have to take a longer break than usual. If you write your story before you start uploading it, you won’t have to worry about struggling to keep up. Wattpad is a lot like a social media network. People can leave comments on your stories, and you can reply to them. After you post your story, take some time to answer any comments that you get. It makes you more approachable, and it’s more likely your readers will recommend your story to others.  Some readers might post criticism of your story, constructive or not. Accept any feedback you get graciously, unless it’s insulting. Thank your readers for any polite comments they share, regardless of whether those comments are praise, constructive criticism, or a...

Convert 52 cards into 52 celebrities. Remember each suit. Remember each card. Create a 52 card matrix. Practice using your matrix.

Ask yourself, “Why am I reading this?” or “What am I supposed to learn from reading this?” By understanding your purpose for reading the material, you will be able to stay on task and focus on the more relevant parts of the text. For example, if you keep in mind that you are reading the material for an exam, this will help you focus on important dates, events, and people. Become familiar with the topic by doing a quick Internet search. The more you understand and know about a particular topic, the more likely you will be able to make associations and remember the information better. For example, if you will be reading about Islam, type in “Islam” in your search engine. Then, click on an article, for example a Wikipedia article, and familiarize yourself with the basic tenets of Islam. Before reading the material, take note of headings, pictures, tables, blurbs, charts, and opening paragraphs. Focus on the important information that fulfills your purpose for reading the material. Skimming the material primes your memory, orients your thinking so you can focus on important information, and helps you formulate a bigger picture of the content, which makes it easier to remember important information. Reading when you cannot focus is a waste of time. Therefore, to maximize your focus, read in short segments. For example, read only a section, or read for only 10 to 15 minutes at a time. After you read the section, go over what you just read in your mind. Increase your reading endurance by steadily increasing the amount of time you read each day or week. For example, if you read in short segments of 10 to 15 minutes one week, read for 20 to 25 minute segments the next week.

Check to make sure all your values are in the correct SI unit. Multiply your acceleration value (1000 kg) by 5 m/s2 to calculate your value. First, convert all your units to SI. One pound is equal to .453 kg, so you'll need to multiply that value by your 8 pounds to determine the mass. Multiply your new value for the mass (3.62 kg) by your acceleration value (7 m/s2). 5 m/s2.  Remember, 10 N is equal to 9.8 kg. So, convert Newtons to kg by dividing by 9.8 kg. Your new kg value should be 10.2 kg for the mass. Multiply your new mass value (10.2 kg) times the acceleration (2.5 m/s2).

Your mind will tend to remember the unusual and things that stand out. Celebrities are great to remember for the roles or infamy. You will systematically form a celebrity matrix to make memorization easier. Each suit will be associated with a personality type. Memorize the suits (personalities):  Spades: absurd or amusing people Diamonds: rich and wealthy people Clubs: crazy or tough people Hearts: people you love or are fan of Each card will be associated with a category. Females will always be even numbers and males will always be odd. Females and males will always be paired up. For example, 10s are powerful women so 9s are powerful men. Memorize the categories:  Celebrity couples are royalty so they are the Kings and Queens.  King = male half of a celebrity couple Queen = female half of celebrity couple.   Jacks were clergymen and therefore bachelors. Jacks = famous male bachelors  The number 10 and 9 are the highest numbers in the deck so they are the most powerful men and women  10 = Famous powerful women 9 = Famous power men   The number 8 looks like an hourglass so 8 and 9 are associated with hunks and bikini models.  8 = Women known for their physique 7 = Men known for the physique   5 and 6 sound like eff and sex so think about this pair as controversial.  6 = Women known for controversy 5 = Men known for controversy   Think of celebrities or their characters who have been in movie trilogies for 4 and 3.  4 = Females who have been in movie trilogies 3 = Males who have been in movie trilogies   1 is better known as Ace, which is a sports term used in tennis.

To get the most surface area, try to slice the bread diagonally, instead of straight down. You do not need to coat both sides with olive oil. The oil will help create a "barrier" between the topping the bread, and prevent it from getting too soggy. Depending on how big your baking sheet is, and how many slices you have, you may need to make several batches. The rack should be about 4 to 5 inches (10.16 to 12.7 centimeters) from the heat source. When the edges turn golden brown, take them out.  You can also toast them under a broiler for 3 minutes, turning once.  For richer bruschetta, melt some butter in a large skillet. Heat the bread slices in the skillet on both sides until they are golden brown. After this point, you can start preparing the traditional tomato-basil topping, or you can use a different, more unique one.

TL;DR in English: Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C). Slice a baguette into ½ inch (1.27 centimeters) thick slices. Use a pastry brush to coat one side of each slice with olive oil. Place the slices olive oil-side-down on a baking sheet. Bake the slices on the top rack in your oven for 5 to 6 minutes. Arrange the bruschetta oily-side-up on a platter.

A personal narrative should focus on something that was pivotal or meaningful in your life and also connects to the prompt you are addressing, if applicable. Ask yourself, “What events in my life stand out the most for me? What events taught me something or made me realize something life changing?”  Choose an event that feels full of meaning and significance to you personally. These events usually make the best story ideas for a personal narrative. For example, if your personal narrative focuses on your intended career path as a teacher, you could write a narrative about how a youth coaching experience showed you the importance of making a positive impact on children. Alternatively, if you’re writing about how you came to choose a college major in medical science, your narrative could focus on a wonderful volunteer experience you had as a child that made you want to help other people. A good personal essay will have an underlying moral or lesson, where the speaker undergoes a realization or change. Think of an experience where you learned a valuable lesson that you carried with you moving forward. Or an experience where you made a moral decision that shifted you in some way. For instance, you may pick an experience where you lost an important match, only to learn the value of failing and do better. Or you may choose an experience where you made a moral decision to help someone, which then lead to positive outcomes for you and the person. You can also go for a story idea that centers on a theme. You can then use your personal story to explore the theme in detail and from your perspective. Try to choose a theme that feels particular to you and your point of view. For example, you may choose a theme like love and use it to explore your experience of love growing up in a family with two fathers. Or you may choose a theme like freedom and use to to explore your struggles with freedom as a refugee.

TL;DR in English: Think of a meaningful event in your life. Pick a personal story with a moral or lesson. Focus on an idea that fits a theme.

You may want to leave nail holes in your wall to give your planking a more rustic appearance, but for a more finished look, fill in these holes with spackle. If your nail holes are very small, you may want to take a hammer and lightly tap holes with it to create a small indentation where the hole is. Dip a putty knife into your spackle, then:  Pull the putty knife over the indentation so that the spackle fills the hole. Try to work some of the spackle deeply into the nail hole. Drag your knife flat against the plank so that a flat, unblemished surface remains. Allow the spackle to dry completely according to its label instructions. Lightly sand spackled areas with fine grit sandpaper (120 to 220 rating). Apply a second layer of spackle in the same fashion as the first. Insert your caulk into a caulk gun and apply it according to its directions. Generally, this involves cutting the tip off the applicator and pressing the applicator lever on the gun. Then, use your gun to fill in the gaps between planks and between planks and the ceiling/wall.  Caulking the gaps will give a more finished look to your wall. What's more, you can use a paint-able caulk, so when you paint the color of your accent planking uniform. After caulk hardens, it retains some flexibility. This is great for you planking, which may warp or swell in humid weather. The caulk will flex with the planks, preventing them from popping free or coming loose. your accent planking before painting. Many kinds of planking are very absorbent. By using two to three layers of primer, you'll not only have a more chip resistant finish, but you'll also use less paint over the course of this project, saving you money.  Primer is also useful when you are trying to paint over a dark color, or colors that are vibrant, which can sometimes show through paint-only applications. Use long, even, overlapping strokes when applying your primer to the planking. Prime from top to bottom to decrease the likelihood of drips and runs. Once you are finished priming your first...

However you design your birdfeeder, you will need some basic materials: an empty, cleaned, and dry gallon or half-gallon plastic milk jug, some string or wire, scissors, and bird food (birdseed, sunflower seeds, millet, etc.). Depending on your design, you might also want to gather:  Dowels or sticks to use as perches (these should be a few inches wider than the jug)  Markers, paints, leaves and glue, or other materials to decorate the feeder An aluminum pie plate to use as a bottom Using a marker, draw a shape on a side of the milk jug away from its handle. It should be positioned a couple of inches from the bottom of the jug, so that it covers the middle of the jug’s side. This shape will mark the opening where the birds will be able to access the food inside. You can draw a circle, a semi-circle, square, or any other shape that a bird could enter to reach food inside the feeder.  A hole between two and four inches wide is sufficient for many common birds.  If your jug is large enough, you can cut another hole or two (of the same size) on its other sides. Using the scissors or another sharp implement, carefully poke a small hole in the jug somewhere along the outline you drew on its side. Then, using the scissors, carefully cut along the line you marked until you cut the circle entirely off of the jug, leaving an opening about three inches wide. If you marked places for other openings on your jug, cut those away too. If you want your milk jug bird feeder to have a perch for birds to stand on as they eat, then you can use a dowel or stick to easily add one. Use a hole punch, scissors, or some other instrument to puncture the jug about a half-inch below the opening, and then again on the other side. The hole should not be any larger than your dowel or stick is wide.  Repeat this step if you have more than one perch. Instead of a dowel or stick as a perch, you could glue an aluminum pie plate to the bottom of your milk jug feeder. This can give birds something to perch on as they feed. If you use a pie plate,...

TL;DR in English: Gather the materials you need. Mark at least one opening on the jug. Use scissors to cut away the opening you marked on the jug. Puncture holes for the perch(es), if applicable. Add the perch(es) to the jug. Prepare your jug for hanging.

You need a space that's both large and well ventilated. You will make a mess so make sure the space you pick can handle it.  Working outside is a plus when it comes to ventilation, but an indoor facility with 3 perfectly placed fluorescent lights will show flaws in your shaping so you can catch them early on. This is a weather-dependent project if you work outdoors. Know that you won't be able to do any work in the rain, snow, or even in the wind. It may be a good idea to build a room specifically for board building; for a short board you will need at least a 10 feet x 8 feet (3 meters x 5.4 meters) room and longer than 10 feet if you're building a long board. Try out several different surfboards to find one you like first to copy the design. Lay your plywood on the ground and place the surfboard on top of it, then mark the outline of the board with a marker.  Make sure the stringer (the wooden strip that stretches the length of the board through the middle) is lined up perfectly straight between the plywood's ends. To make it easier to trace, you can mark placement points with a marker at the nose and the tail, at the board's midpoints, then all the way around the board making each consecutive point parallel from the last, so the surfboard's cut-out is accurate. Be extremely careful to not move the board or the plywood while you are tracing the outline. Put on your safety goggles and plug in the jigsaw. Very carefully cut along your outline to create your surfboard-shaped template. Make sure the edges where you will be cutting are hanging off the sides of the sawhorse and use a carbon steel blade to cut through the plywood. A surfboard blank is the foundation of any surfboard, which you will shape into the final product. Choose foam or wood based on your personal preference.  There are many different shapes, weights, lengths, and densities of surfboard blanks. The type of blank you need depends on how you ride the wave. If you love to rip small waves, a less dense blank is for you (as long as you don't mind...

TL;DR in English: Pick a suitable workspace like a garage or workshop. Get a thin piece of plywood and create a template by tracing a surfboard onto it. Secure the plywood to a workhorse and cut it out with a jigsaw. Get a foam or wood surfboard blank from a surfboard supply shop.

It sounds strange, but responding well to rejection takes practice. It can actually be psychologically beneficial to enter contests or apply for jobs where you know rejection is likely, if not certain. This can actually help numb your response to rejection over time. Think of a strategy of how to respond to rejection beforehand and then begin engaging in low stakes events and competitions where you know rejection is likely. Preparing for rejection helps lessen the sting. Before engaging in a particular event, know what the chances are that you'll be successful. For example, a study shows that only 2% of resumes are looked at for any given job application. Understanding you might not get a callback going in can lessen the rejection down the road. One of the best ways to handle rejection is to pursue many things at once. Submit a story to multiple journals, as long as their website does not forbid simultaneous submissions. If that's the case, try sending out multiple stories at once. Apply to hundreds of jobs. If you're trying to find a romantic relationship, go on dates with many different people. Having a lot of things going on can keep you from focusing on a single rejection. It also increases the likelihood of eventual success. If you're feeling rejected, spending time with those who care about you can help. Spend a night with friends or family members who are encouraging of you and your pursuits. This will remind you of your self worth and that you are not universally rejected as your friends will be excited to spend time with you.

Finding an ethical, reputable breeder is very important to ensure the health of your new pup. If you contact the breeder, but they are coy about letting you see where the puppies were born and the conditions they are currently living in, this is a possible sign they are running a dirty breeding business or a puppy mill. Create a list of questions to ask during your visit to the breeder, including:  How long have you been a dog breeder? How many types of dogs do you breed at one time? How often do you clean, feed, and play with the dogs? Are you a registered dog breeder? Can you show me proof of the dogs' physical health from a licensed veterinarian? Can I meet the pup's mother or parents? Can you provide references from other individuals or families who have purchased dogs from you before? Can you tell me about any potential genetic issues or problems with the types of dogs you breed? Can I return for multiple visits with my family before making a purchase? The breeder should be willing to show you the areas where the pups and the parents of the pups live.  The living areas for the dogs should be clean, spacious and well maintained. The dogs should be kept in roomy spaces that meet the needs of their particular breed. For example, most small breeds will be housed inside in the home, while sporting breeds will have plenty of outdoor space for exercise. The dogs should be lively, clean, healthy, and not shy in front of visitors. But they should also not be aggressive towards you.  Note if the breeder is meeting the psychological and physical needs of their dogs by providing toys, exercise, and social interaction. If the breeder is stand offish or cold towards the dogs, this is likely a bad sign. The puppies should also be raised in the breeder's home, and the breeder should demonstrate care and attention to the puppies. A reputable breeder will likely not have a constant supply of puppies, as this would indicate a puppy mill and possibly bad treatment of the animals. They may keep a list of interested buyers...

TL;DR in English: Ask to meet the breeder in person at their facility and be prepared with a list of questions. Check the conditions of the breeding facility. Pay attention to the attitude and demeanor of the breeder's dogs. Check that the breeder only breeds one or two breeds. Wait to see if the breeder encourages you to interact with the puppy's parents. Ask the breeder about how they treat the mothers or bitches.

There is nothing worse than getting a question marked as incorrect simply because the teacher couldn’t read your handwriting. Remember that your teacher has many tests to grade, so the less time s/he has to spend grading your test, the happier s/he will be and this might reflect in his or her grading choices.   For example, drawing spaghetti-line intersecting lines from column A to column B is likely to be marked down by a teacher who also has 74 other tests to mark. Similarly, print don't write; you don’t want to get something marked wrong just because the teacher can’t decipher your sloppy handwriting. Don't make your Ts look like Fs; spell out True and False. You might get partial credit, if you did everything right but just made a silly mistake right at the end. Partial credit is always better than no credit. So show your work as you go so your teacher can see that you know at least some of the material and got it right. This step is only useful for solving math questions on an exam. Keep a rhythm of underlining words you don't know and circling questions that you get stuck on. Never come to a complete halt – you should always be writing, reading, or turning a page.  The important thing is not to get frustrated and just quit. You only have a limited amount of time, so you need to make every moment count. If you struggle with a particular problem or section, skip it! You can always come back to it later. And this way you’ll be making the most of your time to ensure you get through the entire test. A good rule of thumb to follow when writing an essay for an exam is the rule of three. It usually works better to discuss (or list or...) three things about the subject. Include many more and you get bogged down in too much detail. Any fewer and you are probably leaving something important out. It is important to move through the test in a way that will benefit you and make the most of the time you have. Don’t just start the test and hope you finish in time. If you have both multiple choice and essay questions,...

TL;DR in English: Make it easy for the teacher to grade your test. Show intermediate results. Go through the test steadily. Remember the rule of three. Work strategically. Answer multiple choice questions smartly.

Make a cut down the center of the tomato. Try to keep the two halves roughly the same size. Make a series of three to four length-wise cuts across each half of your tomato. This should cut your tomato into quarters. Each quarter should be roughly the same size. Place each quarter on a table or cutting board with the skin side facing downward. Slice a knife across the tomato to cut out the white, fleshy portion of the tomato. The seeds are attached to this portion, so they will be sliced out as well. Sometimes, seeds linger on the tomato after you cut out of the fleshy portion. If any seeds did not come out, remove them with your fingertips. Roma tomatoes are very small and delicate. They tend to have less seeds and the seeds can be difficult to remove without damaging the tomatoes. It's usually okay to leave the seeds of Roma tomatoes intact.

TL;DR in English: Cut your tomatoes in half. Cut the halves into quarters. Slice out the seeds. Avoid dicing Roma tomatoes. Finished.

the low E string at the fifth fret. The low E string, also called the sixth string, is the lowest and thickest string on your guitar. If you're holding your guitar in playing position and looking down, it will be the top string closest to you.  The note at the fifth fret of the low E is the same as the open A string, the next string over from the low E. For this method, it isn't necessary to first tune your low E string. Even though your instrument may not be to concert pitch or absolute pitch, the strings will be tuned to each other. Anything you play will "sound right," as long as you're playing by yourself and not with another instrument tuned to concert pitch. Listen to the sound coming from the low E string, then play the open A string. Tune the open A string up or down until it matches the sound coming from the low E string. If the open A string is higher than the A you play at the fifth fret of the low E string, tune it down and then bring it back up. Once you have the A in tune, fret it at the fifth fret and pluck it. This is a D. Pluck the open D string, and tune the it up or down to match. When the D string is in tune, fret it at the fifth fret to play a G. Pluck the open G string and compare. Tune it up or down to match the sound. The process changes somewhat for the B string, because there is a shorter interval between G and B. Fret the G string at the fourth fret to play a B. Pluck the open B string and compare the sounds. Tune the open B string up or down until it matches the sound produced on the G string. Once you have the B string in tune, fret it at the fifth fret and pluck to play a high E. Tune the open high E string up or down to match the sound coming from the B string. If the open high E string is higher in pitch than the high E played on the B string, tune it down and then bring it up to pitch slowly and gradually. The high E string has a lot of tension and will snap easily. If you're getting ready to play a particular song, you may want to check your tuning with chords from that song...

Wash your hands. Make a scoop with your hands inside of his cage. Determine if he is nibbling or biting. Handle your dwarf hamster every day.

These days, many companies sell special devices designed to make it easier to close small gaps in hardwood and laminate flooring. These most often take the form of small, heavy rectangular blocks. The blocks feature an adhesive rubber face that provides traction to maneuver the slipped plank back into place with a few taps of a mallet.  You can find floor gap fixers at most major home improvement centers or online for around $40-60. If you’re trying to keep spending to a minimum for your repair project, try making your own floor gap fixer tool by coating one side of a 4x4 with double-sided tape. Peel the plastic covering away to expose the tacky rubber pad underneath. This surface will be used to grip the laminate plank while you force it back into place manually. The adhesive pad of the floor gap fixer is reusable, as long as it’s properly cleaned between projects. Situate the tool in the center of either plank, then press down firmly on the topside with both hands to anchor it. It should stick to the plank securely enough to prevent slipping or scooting while you work.  Once you get started, you'll the shift the plank in the direction of the gap to close it off. Avoid removing the block once it’s in place unless it’s absolutely necessary, as this may weaken the hold of the adhesive pad. When using the floor gap fixer, it’s generally best to inch the problem plank towards the center of the floor, rather than outward towards the wall. This will ensure that the far end remains concealed by the baseboard. If you go towards the wall instead, you may end up having to deal with gaps in adjacent planks as a result. When correcting more than one plank in the same row, it may be necessary to also move the neighboring planks inward to keep the spacing consistent and avoid making the gap worse. Steady the tool with one hand and give the side furthest from the gap a couple whacks to move the loose plank closer to the one it’s drifted away from. It should slide along a few millimeters at a time. Continue tapping the...

TL;DR in English: Purchase a floor gap fixer tool. Remove the protective backing from the adhesive face of the block. Position the block 1 inch (2.5 cm) from the end of one of the displaced planks. Work your way toward the center of the floor and away from the wall. Tap the end of the block with a mallet to close the gap. Repeat with any remaining gaps.

It’s important to be knowledgeable about the world and people around you. Study current events, politics, pop culture, history, and the arts. Get your news from a variety of sources so that you can get a comprehensive idea of what is really going on, and find out as much as you can about a subject before forming an opinion. For example, read reports on a candidate from their own political party as well as from their opposing political party. Read a variety of newspapers and novels, listen to different styles of music, and go to performances in a wide range of genres (ballet, rodeo, cirque du soleil, opera, river dancing, comedy, etc.). Visit different places in the world, if possible, and interact with people from different countries and cultures. . Be an active listener and try to understand other people’s point of view. When you have something to share, speak eloquently and directly, and try to make your meaning and message as clear as possible. Remember to enunciate and speak slowly, rather than rushing. . If you have an issue with someone, bring it up with them directly, rather than discussing the issue with others, gossiping, or perpetuating rumors. Put yourself in the other person’s shoes and try to understand their perspective. If you make a mistake, apologize sincerely. For example, say, “Victoria, I’m sorry for being harsh with you this morning. I was stressed about the upcoming deadline and shouldn’t have taken it out on you. Will you accept my apology?” Don’t swear, use vulgar language, or tell crude jokes, as these things are far from elegant. Refrain from saying things that might offend or hurt someone else. It’s also a good idea to expand your vocabulary so that you’ll always have the right word ready on the tip of your tongue.

TL;DR in English: Stay up to date on current news. Expand your perspective. Communicate clearly Resolve conflicts effectively Mind your language.

Oaks, which all fall under the genus (Quercus) are wide-spread trees found in temperate climates the world over. There are over 600 known species of Oak, with 55 found in the continental United States. Because there is such a wide variety of oak trees in the world, it can be hard to find characteristics that unite them all. However, they do exist:   Acorns are the easiest way to spot an oak tree. If the tree produces acorns, it's an oak.  Lobed leaves are leaves that have rounded or pointed knobs extending out from the center line. While a few oaks do not have lobes, all of the leaves are generally symmetrical around a clear median line.  Small, scaly bark. Bark on oak trees is variable, but it is generally made up of small, hard, and scaly bits of bark. This is unlike the large, flaky chunks of pines or the wallpaper-like bark on birch trees, and is much more cracked and grooved. Lobes are the bits of leaf that extend out to each side from the center of the leaf, like points on a star. White oaks have rounded lobes while red oaks have pointed ones. This is an important distinction that will cut the number of potential trees you're trying to identify in half. On red oaks, the vein of the leave extends all the way out to the edge, creating this point. Each area has its own assortment of oak species, which is often drastically different from other areas. The species of oak you will encounter changes great depending on where you are in the world, as it is rare for an oak found on the east coast to be found in the west, a southern oak in the north, etc. You can generally figure out your region with a few criteria (examples here are for Continental US):  General location -- Northeast, Southeast, Midwest, Northwest, Southwest Inland or coastal. Mountainous or flat terrain. The lobes are the sections that extend out from the center of the leaf's stem on both sides. If possible, compare multiple leaves to find the average number of lobes. A few species such as the willow oak have no lobes at all, but most oaks have...

TL;DR in English: Differentiate oak trees from other species. Look at the tips of the lobes to determine if you have a red or white oak. Consider your geographical region. Count the lobes on each leaf. Measure the indentations between the leaves. Look for color changes in the fall. Measure the overall size of the leaves. Identify any unknown oaks using a Field Guide by the US Forestry Service.

Having clean hands will keep your dwarf hamster from biting you when you pick him up. If your hands smell like food, then he will essentially see your hand as food and bite it to try to get a taste. Wash your hands with  unscented  soap before handling your dwarf hamster. Creating a scoop with your hands will keep your dwarf hamster supported as you lift him up. In addition, by placing your hands underneath your dwarf hamster, he will probably walk onto them.  Do not reach down into your dwarf hamster’s cage to pick him up. Your hand will remind him of a large bird of prey swooping down to snatch him up — he will be terrified by this.  Use slow and gentle movements when putting your hands in his cage. Always speak to your dwarf hamster  before  putting your hands in his cage. Your voice will help keep him calm as you go to pick him up.  Do not chase your dwarf hamster around his cage to get him to step onto your hands. Let him come to you instead of the other way around. There are important differences between your dwarf hamster’s nibbling and biting when you pick him up. His nibbles are friendly and are his way of exploring your hand. Nibbles generally do not hurt.  Bites are usually not friendly. They are your dwarf hamster’s way of telling you that he is stressed, scared, or just upset that you haven’t handled him enough. Hamster bites are usually faster than a nibble and are accompanied by a sound of distress, like a squeak. Bites can be painful. Whether your dwarf hamster bites or nibbles, do not jerk your hand away. This could frighten him and make him wary of you. Gently blowing in his face and saying a firm "no" should stop the biting behavior. Russian dwarf hamsters have short memories, so your dwarf hamster may not remember that you just held him the day before. Handle him each day so that he will not become distressed or upset with not being held enough.  Dwarf hamsters enjoy being handled.  Do not let your dwarf hamster fall out of your hands when you hold him. Prevent this by supporting his body...

One of the best ways to hide your nose is to make another facial feature stand out more. Wearing bold eye makeup or daring lip color will cause onlookers to notice your eyes or lips more than any other part of your face, including your nose.  If you choose to accentuate your eyes, try applying dark eyeliner and mascara. If you choose to accentuate your lips, use bright or bold lipstick colors. Lip color with a little shine or sparkle can also work great. Only accentuate one feature at a time. Applying heavy makeup on both your eyes and lips can easily overwhelm your face. In addition to accentuating your lips or eyes, you can balance out your nose by making your cheekbones more prominent.  Choose a blush one or two shades darker than your natural skin tone and apply it to the apples of your cheeks. Shimmer blushes can actually work well here since they highlight skin more than matte blushes do. Similarly, you can also apply a light bronzer along the cheekbones to make them glow and stand out more. In particular, you need to keep shine off your nose. Shine catches the eye and draws more attention to a feature, so shine on your nose will make your nose look even larger.  The most important thing to do is to keep as much oil off your nose as possible. Use a gentle facial cleanser on your nose each morning and evening. Harsh cleansers can actually irritate the skin and cause it to produce more oil. Throughout the day, dab off some of the excess oil that gathers on your nose with tissue or cosmetic oil blotting paper. Make sure to use a toner and moisturizer after cleansing your face. When applying any makeup to your nose, use a matte formula instead of a shimmery formula. Use a primer before foundation so that oil does not disturb your foundation.

TL;DR in English: Highlight your eyes or lips. Draw subtle attention to your cheekbones. Keep the shine off your skin.

You should use one hand to support the baby's head and neck. Slowly ease the baby into the water, whether you're using the sink, a bathtub, or a small plastic tub for your baby.  Make sure your baby is relaxed and comfortable. Prepare for some tears. Not all babies like the feeling of being lowered into water, especially not at first. Others, however, love the water right away! Use a pitcher, or your hand, to carefully pour cupfuls of water onto your baby's body and over its head. Make sure to wet your child's skin and hair completely. Just don't get water in your baby's eyes or pour water all over its face quickly, or it will get upset. You want your baby to be completely wet before you start using soap. Just know that babies will be more slippery when they're wet. Prepare to handle your baby with extra care once you've lowered it into the water. Make sure you use a mild, tear-free baby soap that won't irritate your baby's skin. Though some people like to use baby shampoo for their baby's hair, it's perfectly fine to use regular soap on your baby's head; many people prefer this because it won't dry out your baby's scalp.  Here's how you wash your baby:  Use your hand or a gentle washcloth and wash your baby from top to bottom both on its front and back. Wash the baby's scalp with a soapy and wet cloth. If you'd like to use shampoo, you can do that, but it's really not necessary. To use shampoo, just pour a dime-sized amount of tear free shampoo onto your hands, lather the shampoo into your hands and then massage your baby's scalp with it. Gently clean your baby's eyes and face with a cloth that is free of soap. You don't want to get soap in your baby's eyes. Give your baby's genitals a regular washing. There's no need to be extra thorough. If any mucus is stuck around your baby's nose or eyes, dab at it a few times before wiping it off. Once you've washed your baby with soap, you can wash your baby with the bathwater. Either pour clean water over your baby with your hands, or use a pitcher to pour water over...

This is the top of the guitar, where the strings are held on to the nuts for tuning. Note how the strings come off at the nut and wind around each tuner, especially how many times each wraps around. Lower strings, which are thicker, will wrap around fewer times. This is a good reference point for when you re-string the bass yourself to see if things are fitting properly. To do this, loosen the first string via the tuning pegs, until you see it loosen. Where the bass is strung at the bottom of the guitar will be different for different depending on the manufacturer. You may have to pull the string out through the bridge, or the body.  Before removing the strings, be sure to see how they are wrapped around each post. Wrapping around the wrong side is a common mistake, so make a note of which way to go for when you re-string. You can either replace the strings one at a time or all together. Most people prefer to change them one by one because it keeps some tension on the neck. If you do them all at once, just keep track of which string went with each nob so you replace them in the proper order. Once you've removed the strings, it's good to keep them as spares in case your new ones break. Use cleaning oil to give the neck a good wipe down and get rid of any dirt or grime. If the neck is made of wood, check your cleaning product to make sure it won't damage the wood. Then apply some oil to the fretboard and let it soak for about 5 to 10 minutes in before wiping off the excess. Use a soft cloth to wipe down the rest of the bass, getting rid of dust and any stray fingerprints. Doing this without the strings is better because you'll be able to get to the parts of the bass that would normally be covered by them. You can use a cotton swab to really get into the nooks on the bridge. Make sure the thickness matches the string you pulled out of that slot. The order you string the guitar doesn't really matter, though it is easier to start on one end and go down the line in order. It's most important that you get the right...

TL;DR in English: Examine the headstock. Remove an old string. Clean the neck and fretboard. Clean the body. Pull the new string through the bridge. Thread the string. Turn the tuner.  Tune your bass

If you'd like perfectly-round ice balls or you simply don't want to deal with the hassle of filling and popping water balloons, investing in a good ice ball mold is your best bet. These are available in specialty stores and online for typically about $8-$20. Several types of molds are available, including:  Silicone molds: Made from flexible silicone material, which makes it easy to "pop" the frozen balls into drinks. Screw-together molds: Made from hard plastic, but screw construction eliminates much of the danger of spillage. Novelty molds: Usually designed to make the ice take the shape of a specific spherical object, like a baseball, the Death Star, etc. Regardless of the type of mold you're using, most work in the same way. Secure the top half of the mold to the bottom half, then position the small hole in the top half of the mold underneath a running faucet. Fill until the mold is full, then remove the mold from the water. Some molds may come with caps for the filling hole — if this is so, secure the cap before freezing.

TL;DR in English: Buy a set of molds. Fill the molds.

Taking a daily shower will help you to look and feel your best, so work this into your daily routine. Try taking a shower right after you wake up, after exercising, or before going to bed at night as a relaxing way to end your day. Use a mild soap or body wash to cleanse your skin, especially under your arms and your groin area. Then, rinse thoroughly and dry yourself off with a clean, dry towel. Try applying moisturizer right after your shower. This will help to lock the moisture into your skin to keep it feeling soft. that works for you. A basic skincare routine involves cleansing your face, using a toner, and moisturizing your face twice daily. However, you may need to adjust your skincare routine based on your skin type, such as by washing your face 3 times daily if you have oily skin or only using toner once per day if you have dry or sensitive skin.  If you're prone to acne, choose skincare products that include anti-acne ingredients, such as benzoyl peroxide and retinol. Some people also include exfoliation in their skincare routines, but try not to exfoliate more than twice per week as too much can irritate your skin. Use a fluoride toothpaste to brush your teeth for 2 minutes after each meal or at least twice daily. Brush the front, back, and sides of all of your teeth. Then, follow brushing with flossing to get in between your teeth. You may also consider using a whitening toothpaste or whitening strips to make your teeth look brighter. You don’t need to shampoo your hair every day, but washing your hair with shampoo once every other day or every third day is important to control oil and keep your hair looking its best.

When choosing a book, keep in mind that because of the moisture absorption involved, some of the pages may get wrinkled. After a few weeks have gone by, your flowers will be completely dry. At this point, open the book and carefully remove the flowers. Because dried flowers can be very delicate, it’s best to use tweezers to remove each flower.

TL;DR in English: Select a book for pressing. Remove the flowers with tweezers after 2-4 weeks.

After a few moments, you should see its icon on the desktop. If you don't see the icon, open Finder by clicking the two-toned smiley face icon in the Dock—you should then see the drive under "Devices" in the left panel. A menu will expand. This opens the Info dialog window. " It is right below the "Capacity" property, which tells you how much space the drive has in total. The value next to "Used" tells you how much space is being occupied by files on the drive.

Prepare your empty pill bottle for use. Keep your office items in empty pill bottles. Hide a spare key in the container. Store jewelry and cosmetic items in the pill bottle. Place your cotton swabs in the pill bottle. Fill your empty pill bottles with lotion for traveling. Stash your earbuds in an empty pill bottle. Store seeds in your empty pill bottles. Organize your piping tips. Craft a portable sewing kit. Carry matches in the pill bottle. Make a coin container. Make a fire starter.

Regardless of what health condition you have, following up regularly with your doctor is very important.  Diabetes requires regular follow up and check-ins with either your primary care physician or your endocrinologist.  Always talk to them prior to making any changes to your diet or exercise program. If you notice your blood sugar levels are changing (due to diet or exercise changes), be sure to call your doctor and inform them of what's going on.  They may change your medications or tell you to discontinue what you've been doing. In order to check how your body is reacting to specific foods that you eat, doctors generally recommend that you check your blood sugar levels before and after you eat.  Do this regularly to get an idea of how your body responds to foods and medications.  It might be wise to start a blood sugar log or journal to keep track of how your numbers look each day.  This can also help guide your physician when they are prescribing a medication or making changes to your dosages. If you notice that a certain food has caused your blood sugar levels to go above the normal range, you may want to consider limiting how much you eat that specific food. .  Smoking is not only bad for your lungs, it can also damage your heart and blood vessels.  Smoking combined with poorly managed diabetes can be a very dangerous mix.  If you feel like you can, try quitting cold turkey or slowly tapering yourself off of cigarettes.  The quicker you stop, the better. Seek professional help if you're having difficulty quitting.  Doctors may be able to give you medication or help enroll you in a smoking cessation program. De-stress to improve your insulin uptake. Stress and anxiety can actually increase your body's insulin resistance. Because of this, it is important to reduce your stress levels if you are trying to reverse your diabetes.  Try the following:  Light intensity exercises.  Light intensity exercises like walking, are a great way to relax and de-stress. Doing yoga can help to relax your mind and...

Fidgeting, fast breathing, dizziness and angry outbursts are just some of the signs that stress is affecting you physically and mentally. Other signs of chronic stress may include:  Getting sick more often Feeling depressed Having aches and pains Dealing with digestive problems like constipation Performing poorly Making impulsive decisions Withdrawing from others Eating too much or too little Sleeping too much or too little Experiencing a lack of sex drive You must be able to point out the stressors that are most affecting you in order for you to make positive change. Stressors can be external factors, such as your job, or internal factors like perfectionism. Consider if any of these common examples of external and internal stressors apply to your situation.  Performance at work Performance at school Relationships (romantic and familial) Children Money troubles Perfectionism Rigid thinking Pessimism Chronic worrying If you are feeling an immense amount of pressure, excuse yourself or grab a few minutes alone to calm yourself.  Deep, diaphragmatic breaths can evoke your body's natural relaxation response and lower heart rate and blood pressure. A few minutes of this exercise can bring about calm and recenter you to focus on managing any stressful situations. Deep breathing can be done anywhere. If you are a beginner, however, aim to find a quiet spot where you can sit comfortably and undisturbed for a few moments. Take a normal breath. Follow up with a deep, cleansing breath in through your nose that causes your lower belly to rise. Hold the breath for 1 or 2 counts before exhaling slowly, letting your lower belly deflate as the air passes out through your mouth. Repeat the cycle several times until you feel more relaxed. Stressors that you can control are those that you can take some sort of action on to alleviate immediately. Focus on those. Trying to control things that are out of your control only cause more stress. If you can't control a situation, then you must move on to what you can control. When...

TL;DR in English: Realize when you are under pressure. Identify the source of pressure. Practice deep breaths. Ask yourself if you can control the situation. Find a  workable solution to what you can control.

Your back should be pressed against the backrest, and your bottom should be as far back in your seat as possible. Avoid driving with your body scorched forward; if you can’t reach the pedals or steering wheel, adjust your seat, not your body. Imagine the steering wheel is the face of a clock. Place your left hand where 9 o’clock would be on the clock. Place your right hand where 3 o’clock would be on the clock. Maintaining this grip will give you the most control over the wheel. Always drive with both hands on the wheel. Driving with one hand twists your spine, which can lead to back pain. If you’re driving a manual car, only move your left foot when you’re using the clutch. If you’re driving an automatic, you should never move your left foot from the footrest. Keeping your left foot flat on the footrest will help support your back and pelvis while you’re driving. Don’t wear the strap that stretches across your lap over your stomach. In case of an accident, you want the strap to catch onto your pelvic bone, not your stomach.

TL;DR in English: Sit with your body all the way back in your seat. Hold the steering wheel at a “9 and 3” position. Keep your left foot on the footrest when you’re not using it. Wear your seat belt so the strap goes across your pelvis.

Before you reuse your pill bottle, heat up some water to boiling, pour it in the bottle, and wait 60 seconds.  Peel the label off, then rinse and dry the empty pill bottle before using it. Many people keep loose items like paper clips, thumb tacks, and so on in their desk drawers.  But these items can be hard to find unless they are collected properly.  Empty pill bottles offer a great solution to storing these office supplies.  If you wish, you could label the top of each empty pill bottle with permanent marker to indicate what is in it. Stick a spare key in the pill container.  Plant it in the lawn near the back of your house or somewhere out of the way.  Don’t bury it too deeply.  The white top of the pill bottle should be parallel with the surface of the ground.  Place a fist-sized rock over the pill bottle in a location where it would not seem out of place.  This will allow you to hide a spare key outside your home.  In the event you’re locked out, you can get back in by using this key. Hiding the key in the pill bottle protects it from rain, which could cause it to rust. Bobby pins, hair ties, and other small fashion accessories are often difficult to store properly, since they get lost in regular drawers and storage containers.  Empty pill bottles make perfect containers for these items.  Use one for bobby pins, another for earrings, and so on.  If you wanted, you could tape a label on each so you know what’s inside.  If you have a taller empty pill bottle, you could store your eyeliner and makeup brushes in it. Cotton swabs are great for cleaning small tubes and fine objects.  But their small size also makes them hard to store.  Most people just keep them in the box they come packaged in, but if you wanted to keep them somewhere more accessible, you could just store them in an empty pill bottle.  If you are not able to seal the pill bottle with the lid, that’s okay.  You can just leave the pill bottle on your bathroom counter and recycle the lid, or place it somewhere for safekeeping (in the event...

TL;DR in English:


Reassure them. Be direct. Be honest. Listen to what your parents have to say.

You'll need HM01 Cut already. You'll need to have at least 10 Pokémon in your Pokédex. You'll leave the city and find a cave. You'll see "Diglett's Cave" in the upper left corner of your screen as well as a man next to a ladder down. If you step on the ladder, you will load into the floor below. Follow the path west and north until you find another ladder. If you step on the ladder, you will load into the floor above. You'll see a digger and the words "Diglett's Cave" in the upper left corner of your screen. You'll appear on Route 2, so follow the path south. You'll see the tree growing between poles. Once you cut down the tree, continue south. You'll see two people. Speak to the guy without the hat, and he should give you "HM05 Flash" if you have ten Pokémon in your possession. "Flash" lights up dark caves (like the Rock Tunnel).

TL;DR in English: Go to Vermilion City. Head south-east to Route 11. Enter the cave. Go down the ladder. Go up the ladder. Exit the cave. Use Cut on the tree blocking your path south. Enter the building.

Watch Michael Dickinson's TED talk on how flies fly to gain awesome insight. .. well... uh... hinges on the hinges where the wings attach to the body. If these are immobilized, the fly becomes a "walk." Chemists all around the world have worked in labs for years— formulating, testing and refining stiffening products for the hair. Guess what? The hairspray does not know what it is stiffening. It indiscriminately stiffens everything it hits, fly wings and fly wing-hinges included. (Don't worry.— You will not get put on any lists for this kind of stalking.) Simply observe the fly and get in a good position to intercept the flight path of the proudly parading pesky pest. Zing. You got a tumbler!... and a walker. Invert the glass and place it over the fly.   Bye, bye dead fly. Note: this burial at "sea" can be just as ceremonious as you want, but there is no real need to go out of your way. It is only a fly... walk... goner.

TL;DR in English: Take the time to study the capabilities of your nemesis (the fly). Realize that most of the maneuvering done by a fly hinges on the. Know that hairspray is the ultimate stiffener. Stalk your victim. Douse her (or him) with a good shot of hair spray. Trap the fly with a clear drinking glass. Slide an index card under the glass and the fly. Take the fly carrier (glass & index card assembly) into the bathroom. Dump the fly into the toilet and flush.

You should get creative here. While you definitely want to visit the mall, think about alternatives like boutique shops or bridal stores. This can open your options to designs you may not have considered as well.  The same goes for online retailers. Think about looking into renting your dress or checking out a costume store. Try this option if you want to save money. A thrift store dress, for example, will be unique, vintage and really inexpensive.  This is a sure fire way to avoid showing up in the same dress as someone else. With all the excitement, it will be tempting to purchase the first one you try on but don’t make this mistake. Take your time and really enjoy the experience of finding the perfect one. If you’re leaning towards an online purchase, find out if they will ship several for you to try before you buy. This will save you the heartache of committing, only to find out you hate the way it looks on you. The perfect prom dress will ruin your night if it’s pinching in places, too tight or practically falling down. You don’t want to spend the entire evening tugging at it or tripping over the train. Make sure it’s what you want and easy to maneuver in.  When trying on a dress, make note of itchy fabric or wiring poking you in the side. Ask the associate what can be done to remedy this discomfort. While trying on the dress, try jumping up and down or dancing a bit to test the fit. If you were planning to skimp on the alterations, it may come back to haunt you. If you are going to the prom with a date, find out what they will be wearing. Think about wearing matching outfits. For example, if they've chosen a blue suit, you can wear the same colored dress. Keep in mind that you don't have to match from head to toe. You can wear accessories that match their ensemble or vice versa. Pick out your friend's dress and let her pick yours! Before you head out, swap 5-10 dress ideas online and plan a day-long shopping trip to try them on. They might come up with something glamorous and gorgeous that you may not...

TL;DR in English: Visit multiple stores. Try on several. Think about comfort. Consider your date. Let your friend pick.

Take a deep breath and go for it. Before you get into details, though, keep in mind that your parents have no idea what you are about to say. Be reassuring. Let them know that you are not in immediate danger.  Be clear that you are not in more serious trouble. They will probably be relieved to hear that you haven't committed a crime, for example, and are not on academic probation. Say something to the effect of, “Before you get too worried, just know that I'm not in any kind of danger or serious trouble.” This reassurance can work to your advantage. For a worried parent, smoking may be a minor concern. Don't mince words. Tell your parents that you smoke and that you want them to know because you're concerned for yourself and for their opinion.  Consider something to the point, i.e. “Dad, all I want to tell you is that I smoke” or “Mom, I'm sorry but I smoke.” If your parents are sensitive about smoking, adding an apology might soften a negative reaction: “I know how you feel about cigarettes and I'm really sorry. It just sort of happened. I feel like I've disappointed you.” Keep things frank with your parents during the conversation. Don't lie about when you started or about how much you smoke, if they ask. Give an honest explanation so that they can understand the situation.  Offer details. Explain when and how you started smoking and how much you smoke. For instance, “Well, it started last spring when I was really stressed out. I got a pack from the corner store – they didn't card me. But now I'm up to half a pack a day and it's starting to get out of hand.” Speak calmly. Use a concerned tone and look your parents in the eye. Try not to sound defiant or argumentative. Your parents might be supportive. On the other hand, they might be disappointed, preachy, angry, or all at the same time. Still, listen to what they have to say even if you disagree. Remain respectful.  Let your news sink in and give your parents time to think and react. Wait for them to make the next move and let them speak their minds. Try...

Set goals. Look for a job. Prepare for your future.

Aloe vera is well-known for soothing and moisturizing damaged skin, but it can provide the same benefits to your hair as well. You will need:  Plain, full-fat yogurt (Greek or standard) – 3 tbsp Aloe vera – 4 tbsp Olive oil – 2 tbsp Mix these ingredients together, then rub them into your hair just like you would with  conditioner. Let them sit in your hair for half an hour. Rinse without shampooing for glossy, shiny hair. Egg whites are another wonderful remedy for dry hair. They are cheap and can add enough moisture to damaged hair to make it much easier to style and manage. You will need:  One egg Water – 3 tbsp Separate the white of the egg from its yolk. Place it in a small mixing bowl. Add the water and blend well. Apply all over your hair. Wait for 30 minutes before washing. You’ll be surprised by your hair's new shine. Egg mixed with full-fat yogurt can be used to make a great protective "mask" that will add moisture back to dry hair. For this recipe, you'll use whole eggs, rather than whites. You will need:  Two eggs Plain, full-fat yogurt (Greek or standard) – 2 tbsp Beat the eggs in a medium-sized bowl. Add the yogurt and mix. You’ll end up with a creamy, smooth paste. Rub this throughout your hair. Leave on for at least 20 minutes before washing with cold water. This is an excellent way to get lustrous hair in minutes. You will also love the smell of your hair once it’s dry. You will need:  Honey – 2 tbsp Rice milk – 1 cup Blend the ingredients together with the help of a spoon. Spread the mixture over your hair and allow it to sit for 10-15 minutes. Rinse off. Though it may not seem like it, vinegar can be a sure-fire ticket for super-soft and shiny hair. You will need:  Vinegar – 1 tbsp Pour the vinegar in your hair as you wash it the next time you’re in the shower. Rinse well and shampoo as normal. This will help get the smell out.

TL;DR in English: Try an aloe vera rub. Try an egg white treatment. Try an egg and yogurt hair mask. Try a rice milk and honey hair wash. Try working hair magic with vinegar.

God is love. Read John 3:16. You will find out that Jesus loves you first and wants the best for you. He loves His Father in heaven. That is why he gave his life on the cross. Therefore you should see Jesus as a loving and kind God. That way you will be able to get closer to Him. "Therefore if any man be in Christ Jesus, he is a new creature old things are passed away behold, new things have come." (2 Corinthians 5:17). For instance, at home in your room is a great spot. If you find a sacred, very clean and pleasant place, that would also be favorable. Put your phone on vibration, or turn it off. Allow some peace and calm before you start meditating. It would help if the temperature is not too cool or hot. It might distract you if the temperature is too disturbing. It would help if you breath in and out, taking deep breaths from only the nose and not the mouth. Open the windows partially if it is a closed room, for ventilation. Want truly to experience God. "Seek and ye shall find." What we think about and spend energy on will be what we surround ourselves with. "For those who are according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who are according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit. For the mind set on the flesh is death, but the mind set on the Spirit is life and peace,…" (Romans 8:6) to God through the Holy Spirit. Pray to get into a direct connection with Jesus. Prayer have powers. It can help you cope and move on. So keep praying especially through the Holy Spirit and expect Yehoshua or Jesus to bless your meditation. whatever is true, whatever is worthy of respect, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if something is excellent or praiseworthy, [meditate]/think on these things. (Philippians 4:8) "Do not follow wicked counsel, [or] stand in the path of sinners, nor sit in the seat of scoffers -- but delight and meditate in the law (instructions) of the LORD God day and night... you will be like a tree firmly planted by streams of...

TL;DR in English: Understand God's true Love. Find a quiet place to meditate on God's way, preferably where no one else is. Don't allow distractions to get a hold of you, unless it's an emergency. Focus on God, since this is the most important thing to do. Set your mind on Christ's Spirit. Pray Meditate on these things: Meditate on the law of God. Let your meditations be acceptable to God. "Sing to the LORD as long as you live; and praise God as long as you have breath. "Tremble before the Lord and do not sin [but] meditate in your innermost being upon your bed, and be still.

This "substitution" method starts out by "solving for x" (or any other variable) in one of the equations. For example, let's say your equations are 4x + 2y = 8 and 5x + 3y = 9. Start by looking just at the first equation. Rearrange it by subtracting 2y from each side, to get: 4x = 8 - 2y. This method often uses fractions later on. You can try the elimination method below instead if you don't like fractions. " Once you have the x term (or whichever variable you are using) on one side of the equation, divide both sides of the equation to get the variable alone. For example:  4x = 8 - 2y (4x)/4 = (8/4) - (2y/4) x = 2 - ½y Make sure you go back to the other equation, not the one you've already used. In that equation, replace the variable you solved for so only one variable is left. For example:  You know that x = 2 - ½y. Your second equation, that you haven't yet altered, is 5x + 3y = 9. In the second equation, replace x with "2 - ½y": 5(2 - ½y) + 3y = 9. You know have an equation with only one variable. Use ordinary algebra techniques to solve for that variable. If your variables cancel out, skip ahead to the last step. Otherwise, you'll end up with an answer for one of your variables:  5(2 - ½y) + 3y = 9 10 – (5/2)y + 3y = 9  10 – (5/2)y + (6/2)y = 9 (If you don't understand this step, learn how to add fractions. This is often, but not always, necessary for this method.) 10 + ½y = 9 ½y = -1 y = -2 Don't make the mistake of leaving the problem half-finished. You'll need to plug the answer you got back into one of the original equations, so you can solve for the other variable:  You know that y = -2  One of the original equations is 4x + 2y = 8. (You can use either equation for this step.) Plug in -2 instead of y: 4x + 2(-2) = 8. 4x - 4 = 8 4x = 12 x = 3 When you plug x=3y+2 or a similar answer into the other equation, you're trying to get an equation with only one variable. Sometimes, you end up with an equation with no variables instead. Double check your work, and make sure you are plugging the (rearranged)...

TL;DR in English: Move the variables to different sides of the equation. Divide both sides of the equation to "solve for x. Plug this back into the other equation. Solve for the remaining variable. Use the answer to solve for the other variable. Know what to do when both variables cancel out.

If you want to move on, you should have a plan. Research, and, if possible, visit new destinations you might be interested in settling in. Consider what career and educational choices might be necessary to make it to where you want to be. Set a plan to reach those goals.  College is often a great opportunity to settle in a new town. Consider what colleges are around destinations you are interested in. Research what grades and test scores you will need to be accepted. Generally, more desirable destinations are expensive. To afford life in a big, interesting city, you might need a better job and more qualifications. Research what the major industries in your town of choice are and what qualifications are necessary to get a job in those industries. In the long run, a job can give you the the work experience and the money necessary to move away to a new destination. But, money can also make even a small town more interesting. Since you will be busy, you won’t be as bored. You can use your new found resources to buy a car and commute somewhere with more entertainment options. You can even save up for a vacation. A boring town has few distractions to keep you from self-improvement. If you are young, use this as an opportunity to work hard to get into a good college. In the long run, this can take you some place more interesting.  Keep your grades up. This will be important for ultimately establishing yourself elsewhere. Get involved in extracurricular activities. Being involved in sports and clubs will not only keep you occupied, it will help you get into college. Develop your skills. If you dream of living in Paris, France, study French. If you dream of being the next Bollywood star, you will need to learn dramatic skills, singing, dancing, and so on.
