Bacteria feeds off of sugar, so reduce your sugar intake to keep bacteria from thriving. Avoid processed and pre-packaged foods, and sweetened drinks. Read labels and avoid the product if sugar, high-fructose corn syrup, cane syrup, or another sweetener is listed as one of the top five ingredients. Reduce or avoid the following, which can have an even worse effect if you are consuming more than one of these items on a regular basis:  Pre-packaged snacks, crackers, chips. Breads or cakes. Soda, fruit drinks, sweet tea. When you do eat something sweet, use honey which has antibacterial properties and stevia. Stevia is an herb that is 200 times sweeter than sugar and has no calories. Avoid using artificial sweeteners like aspartame which can cause glucose intolerance (prediabetes) by changing the balance of your gut bacteria. Eat citrus fruits in moderation and be sure to rinse out your mouth with water and never brush immediately after eating. This will decrease the amount of acid in your mouth. The natural sugars in fruit, fructose, don't feed bacteria and are not found in high levels in fresh fruit like apples, pears, or peaches. Don't be afraid to eat fresh fruits. Take the time to chew each bite completely so that your mouth produces saliva. Saliva can naturally remineralize your teeth during meals and the more you chew the more saliva will be released. You should also drink 6 to 8 eight-ounce glasses of pure water a day. You don't need to drink mineral water; get your minerals from your diet instead. It's fine to drink well or tap water, which contain minerals unique to your area.  Tap water in much of the US is treated with fluoride to help prevent tooth decay. Though many people choose bottled water over tap water, most bottled water does not have much (if any) fluoride. If your water is "de-ionized, purified, demineralized, or distilled," then any naturally occurring fluoride has been removed.  Drinking water is simply a way to stay hydrated without ingesting substances that damage your teeth. If you...

TL;DR in English: Limit sugars and processed starches. Use honey or stevia in place of sugar. Pay attention to the amount of citrus you eat. Chew your meals slowly and drink water. Take a mineral supplement. Get more vitamin D.

Choose a place that will provide room to walk around the fire, away from plants, fences, or any other kinds of flammable material. Consider the wind in your backyard and the way it will blow smoke from the fire. Also consider how many people will be enjoying the fire, a 6-foot buffer minimum is a good idea.  Leave about 2 inches (5.1 cm) between the bricks for air circulation. Cover most of the bottom of the pit, creating a small "dip" in the center where you can place newspaper and kindling. Sprinkle water on the concrete until it hardens to your satisfaction. Construct a tepee from kindling around the newspaper. Light the newspaper, and you're ready to go. When the kindling gets going, start placing bigger pieces of wood around the shelf in a tepee shape.

TL;DR in English: Select a spot for your pit. Dig a circular hole, 4-feet in diameter and 12-inches deep. Using cement bricks, construct a 12-inch high wall around the pit. Lay down some concrete, the quick setting type. Build the fire. Feed the fire.

Understand that the presence or absence of a higher power has no effect on your moral code, unless he or she were to provide a code that is superior to one that you can deduce on your own.  In this case, a moral and logical atheist would accept such a code without question.  However, despite its godly origin, such an atheist would still recognize the value in questioning this divine moral code in order to potentially obtain even greater moral right.  If such as divine code is perfect, then questioning it only serves to support its greatness and make it stronger.  As such, one should never fear questioning a moral code. If a modern human were to stone to death an adolescent for not honoring his/her father and mother, we would certainly think him/her immoral.  Yet, these are the prescribed punishments for such acts, according to Abrahamic texts found in the Old Testament. Since modern humans do not follow their religious texts to the letter, they must have some method for determining which prescriptions to follow and which to discard, which is ultimately where our morals come from. Ask yourself -- is this action "good" because God tells us to do it, or is it simply a good thing to do. If the action is only good because God says so, then morality is nothing more than a checklist, and there are likely few Christians who believe that murder is moral just because someone talked back to their father. When something is a requirement, it's not actually moral anymore. Morality is about choice -- deciding to the right thing amongst many options. But if you're only doing the right thing because a religious leader or text told you to, or because you're scared of the consequences of hell, you're not actually being moral. You're being a sheep. Never forget that the mass murders of the Spanish Inquisition and Crusades were considered "moral" because they were apparently backed up by the Bible. But anyone stepping back to think for themselves would have realized very quickly that senseless violence is never a good moral...

TL;DR in English: Understand that the human intellect is the greatest tool that we yet know and that your rationale is important. Note that morality does not come from religion, but from communities who interpret religion. Remember that true moral goodness occurs because you want to help, not because you have to. Consider many of the clearly immoral positions of religions throughout history. Understand that highly religious communities often have higher rates of violence and crime. Note that atheists tend to be less prejudiced, hateful, and against limited rights for minorities. Remember to still accept the good of religious thinking and morality.

Partners may be chosen by any method agreed upon by the group. Teammates should sit in alternating positions so that each person is seated diagonally from their partner. Euchre is played with 24 cards consisting of the 9, 10, J, Q, K, and A cards from a standard 52-card deck. Although the remaining cards are not used during the game, set aside the 4 and 6 cards of a black suit as well as the 4 and 6 cards of a red suit to use for keeping score. Each team should use one of the sets of 4 and 6 cards to keep score by hiding/revealing one suit symbol for each point scored (Euchre goes to 10). For example: to show a score of five, the 6 card should be face up and the 4 card be face down, covering one of the suit symbols on the 6 card so that five suit symbols are showing. Shuffle the deck and then continuously deal one card face up to each player until someone receives one of the black jacks. This person is the first dealer. Dealing must take place over exactly two rounds The dealer must deal two or three cards at a time to each player, including themselves The exact pattern of card distribution does not matter, but the most common is 2-3-2-3 for the first round, followed by 3-2-3-2 for the second round. Players can look at their cards once they are dealt, but they cannot discuss them with anyone, including their teammate. After each player has five cards, the dealer should confirm that there are four remaining cards known as the kitty. Once confirmed, the dealer places the remaining cards face down in the center of the table, and then flips over the top card to begin the hand.

Hyperpigmentation can take a variety of forms and have a number of different potential causes. If you want to try and prevent it, it's important to have a clear understanding of the different ways it might appear to see for which form you are most at risk. Depending on what form of hyperpigmentation you are concerned about, you may not be able to do much to prevent it. The three main types are:  Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation Lentigines Melasma This type of hyperpigmentation can be caused by any inflammatory skin condition which involves the junction between epidermis and dermis. The epidermis is the outermost layer of skin and the dermis is the layer beneath that. The kind of inflammation or injury that can cause PIH includes acne, burns, and psoriasis. A professional skin treatment can also result in PIH.  If PIH is a reaction to a specific inflammation or trauma it can resolve itself without treatment, but this can sometimes take months. It is possible that epidermal pigmentation can last for six months or a year. Dermal pigmentation can last for even longer, persisting for years. There are a wide variety of different instances of lentigines recorded in medicine. Some of these develop when you are very young and some as you get older. Solar lentigines are those which are most often caused by excessive exposure to the sun. Sometimes these are known as liver spots, and have been associated with aging. Although they do multiply and become more prominent with age, evidence has shown them to be much more prominent in older people who have had high exposure to UV light.  Solar lentigines most frequently occur on the face and the back of the hands. There is no proven link between lentigines and melanoma (a serious form of skin cancer), but they are considered an independent risk factor for melanoma. One other common type of hyperpigmentation is known as melasma (sometimes referred to as chloasma). Unlike the PIH and lentigines, melasma is not caused by exposure to the sun or a trauma or inflammation...

TL;DR in English: Identify the different types. Understand post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH). Identify lentigines. Determine melasma hyperpigmentation.

Got your eye on someone? Winning someone over doesn't need to be super-complicated. If you want a girl to start noticing that you exist, just start saying hello. When you pass in the hallway between classes, make eye contact and say, "Hey!" Smile and give a little wave. She'll get the hint.  You don't even have to say anything. Just start smiling when you see her coming. This will always be appreciated. Use her name. Hearing your own name called helps people feel validated and secure. It's like a little compliment every time. When you see her, say her name often.  If you've never seen this girl before and want to approach her, just go up and say hello, then start a conversation. After she's aware of your presence, strike up a conversation. Lead with something interesting and specific, or talk about something you know you've got in common.  Be funny. Lead with something that will break the ice: "I'm thinking of cutting gym and renting a Cadillac to drive to Mexico. What do you say? I need an accomplice." Talk about something you've got in common. If you see a girl out at a bar or restaurant, say, "Isn't this place great? What do you think? Have you been here before?" If you have class together, ask her about how she did on the last test, or how she feels about the readings. Avoid "closed" questions that won't give you anything to talk about. If you say, "What's up?" or "Hows it going?" that conversation is going nowhere. Getting to know someone is tough in a group setting. If you want to get to know her better, try to find an excuse to talk, just the two of you. Make it a regular thing.  If you start talking to a girl while you're out somewhere, ask if she wants to move into a booth, or stand outside and talk for a while. "Want to talk outside so we can hear each other? I want to hear what you have to say." Sit next to her at lunch, or on the bus, or chat her up in the hallway while she's walking to class. If you both walk home from school together, walk together. .

One way to ensure your filing system runs efficiently is by filing paper as you process it. The filing system is not going to work if you put off filing papers. Getting into the habit of filing papers will also help your productivity and workflow. Every couple of months you should go through your filing system and do a brief sweep. You aren’t required to review all your papers like you did for the initial organization. Check through all files and make sure everything is organized and in the right place. After the first few months you could also reflect if the system you choose is working for you. Once a year you should do a larger cleaning of your workspace. You might have some files that you regularly use, but you should now go through the other files you use less. Open the files you use less and read through all your documents to see if there is any unnecessary paperwork. Take out all the files and wipe down the filing cabinet with a damp washcloth to remove dust buildup.

TL;DR in English: File paperwork immediately. Keep your space updated. Clean out your space.

The measurements don't have to be exact. If you are using fresh lime juice, you will need about half a lime. If the drink is too sweet for you, you can add a little bit more lime juice. If the drink is not sweet enough, you can add more sugar. You can also use sugar packets. Each sugar packet contains about 1 teaspoon of sugar. Some people find that this is a good remedy for hangovers.

Click the Windows logo in the bottom-left corner of the screen, or press ⊞ Win. This will search for the Notepad application. It's the blue, notepad-shaped icon at the top of the Start window. If Notepad is blocked on your school computer, you'll instead need to perform this task on your own computer. This string of text will load the Command Prompt app when implemented. It's in the top-left corner of the screen. This is an option in the File drop-down menu. The ".bat" part of the name is crucial to creating a batch file. For example, if you name your file "cmd", you'd type in cmd.bat here. This will ensure that your file is saved as an executable file, not a text file. It's in the bottom-right corner of the window. If you're performing this step on your own computer, plug a flash drive into your computer and select it as a save location before clicking Save.

Your teacher may have given you specific requirements, and if so, you should follow those. There are two basic ways to organize a book report:  Organize the book report by chapter. If you organize your book report this way, you will move from chapter to chapter. You'll probably need to cover multiple chapters in each paragraph.  Pro: You can go in chronological order, which could be helpful when you're summarizing books with a lot of plot elements. Con: This kind of organization can be more difficult to figure out if you need to talk about multiple chapters in one paragraph.   Organize the book report by type of element ("thematic" organization). If you organize your book report this way, you could have a paragraph about the characters, a paragraph or two about plot summary, a paragraph about main ideas, and a paragraph that sums up your opinion of the book.  Pro: You can tackle a lot of plot summary in very little space. The paragraphs are clearly divided, so you know what to cover in each one. Con: This may not be appropriate if your assignment is mostly to summarize the book rather than give your opinions about it. This will help you draft your summary. Put your notes into outline form depending on how you decided to organize your paragraphs.  For chronological order: Give each chapter or section of the book its own section. Write down the most important story elements and character developments that happened in each chapter. For thematic organization: Put your notes about the various elements, such as characters, plot, and main ideas, into separate sections. Each will become a paragraph. When you write your first draft, think about what elements move the story forward, because those will probably be the most important. You can give more detail as you revise, if you want. For example, many things happen in Suzanne Collins's The Hunger Games, but you can't talk about them all. Instead, focus on the overall movement of the story. Begin by explaining what the Hunger Games are and how Katniss Everdeen and...

When you’re painting a ceiling, an airless paint sprayer usually works best because it fans the pain out in droplets to help evenly coat the surface. When you’re working on an overhead surface such as a ceiling, you want to choose a model that has a suction set and a portable paint reservoir instead of the usual jar. A sprayer that comes with a backpack type setup is usually the most convenient.  If you don’t paint regularly, there’s no need to purchase a paint sprayer. You can usually rent them from hardware stores, home improvement centers, and tool rental companies. Make sure to read the instructions on how to fill the sprayer with paint carefully. It can vary from model to model. Using the right tip on your paint sprayer is key to a successful paint application. With thinned acrylic paint, a 415 or 515 tip usually works best. To make sure that the tip you’ve chosen is appropriate, test it by spraying a piece of cardboard to see the pattern of the paint.  When you spray the cardboard, make sure that the spray pattern is intact, without any breaks. Make sure to examine the tip itself. If you notice that it’s rounded or has grooves along the edge, it is probably worn out and should be replaced. When your paint sprayer is ready, it’s time to spray the ceiling. Step up on a ladder so you can comfortable hold the nozzle approximately 1-foot from the ceiling. For the first coat, spray the paint onto the ceiling in a single direction, moving in a steady motion.  Be sure to hold the sprayer so it’s perpendicular to the ceiling.  When you finish with one strip of the ceiling, overlap the painted section with your next pass over the surface for the most complete coverage. After you’ve finished spraying the entire ceiling in the first direction, you’ll want to apply a second coat. This time, move the spray over the ceiling in the opposite direction of the first coat.  Allow the paint to dry for approximately one to two hours between coats. If the ceiling looks patchy after two coats, you may want to apply a third...

Meanwhile, prepare a baking dish by inserting an elevated cooking rack.  If you don't have an elevated rack, crumple up several sheets of aluminum foil and scatter them across the bottom of the baking dish. You'll need to keep the pork belly elevated as it cooks to help the fat render more readily. Using a sharp knife, the skin of the pork belly in a cross-hatch pattern. Slice across the skin in vertical rows spaced 2 inches (5 cm) apart, then create a series of perpendicular slices that are also spaced 2 inches (5 cm) apart.  Pierce through the tough skin and the top layer of fat, but do not cut too deeply into the actual meat lying beneath the two. Scoring the meat in this manner will allow more of the fat to render out during the roasting process. Place the pork belly on your prepared baking rack with the skin-side facing up. Rub the top with oil, then generously season the meat with salt and pepper.  In addition to seasoning the meat, the oil and salt make it easier for the fat to render out, resulting in crispier skin. Apply the seasonings by hand, and work the salt and pepper into the slits across the skin. Note that salt and pepper should withstand the roasting process without deteriorating, but other spices and herbs might burn. If you decide to add others, do so within the final 30 minutes of cooking. Place the seasoned pork belly in the preheated oven. Roast it for 20 to 30 minutes, or until the skin browns and begins to look crispy.  This brief period of high heat will not cook the pork through, nor should you cook the pork belly at this high heat for the entire time. The intense heat is only meant to crisp the skin. Do not wait for the skin to become dark brown or fully crisped since it will continue cooking at a lower temperature. Cooking it for too much time at a high heat could cause it to burn before the rest of the meat finishes. Decrease the temperature without removing the pork belly. Allow the meat to cook for another 2 to 2-1/2 hours, or until done.  Check the pork belly halfway through...

You can either run your fabric through the hot cycle on your washing machine or you can heat water in a pot on your stovetop and then soak the material. Either method will help relax the spandex fibers and help it stretch more easily. Most water heaters are set to heat water within this range, so you should be able to use hot water from your tap. An ironing board is a good surface for this project, but you could also use your kitchen counter, the floor, or a table with a surface that won’t be damaged by water. If you’re not sure if it’s okay to place a wet object on a table, try placing a drop of water on an inconspicuous area of the table. If the wet spot turns white, you shouldn’t use that surface for stretching your spandex or it will leave water stains. You can use almost anything to weight down your material; just make sure it’s heavy enough to hold the fabric when you stretch it. Items that weight about 3–5 lb (1.4–2.3 kg) should be sufficiently heavy enough to secure the garment just by placing it on one end of the fabric.  Try using free weights, a stack of textbooks, or even the leg of your bed to secure your fabric. Be sure that your weight is made of a material that can get wet without being damaged or transferring color to your garment. For instance, you may want to avoid anything made from painted wood. Pull the free end of the material as tight as you can without tearing the fabric, then secure that end with another heavy weight. The constant tension should help permanently stretch out the elastic in the spandex. Since spandex is made to return to its original shape, try to stretch it beyond what you think you’ll need. If you remove the material while it’s still wet, the fibers will shorten as they dry. This will cause the material to return to its original shape, so make sure it dries completely while it’s being stretched.  It will probably take about an hour for your garment to dry completely, although thicker material may take longer. For the best results, allow it to sit for at least an...

TL;DR in English: Soak your material in 120–140 °F (49–60 °C) degree water. Place the material on a flat surface while it’s still hot.

You may have heard that St. John's wort is sometimes used as a natural antidepressant. However, some people also use it to help with bruises because they believe it helps shrink tissues and slow down bleeding. To use, apply the oil version of this supplement to your bruise three times a day. Though it may be tempting to rub your bruise to help it feel better, doing so can actually cause more damage. Like St. John's wort, some people have luck gently applying vitamin K to the bruise because vitamin K helps with clotting. Find the cream version to use on your bruise, and use it twice a day.

Although there are some left-handed professional trumpet players who hold their trumpet opposite of the recommended method, most use the standard grip. Many musical instruments require the use of both hands, and left-handed musicians have been shown to be adept at dexterity in their right hand as well. If you have a disability limiting the use of one of your hands, find a modified hold which works for you. You can find the ring next to the valve casing, which looks like 3 attached vertical tubes.This ring operates the third slide valve, which is used to help adjust out-of-tune notes.  If you have very large hands, you may rest your little finger under the third valve slide. If your hands are very small, you may want to rest your little finger inside the ring and wrap your other 3 fingers around the valve casing. These fingers on your left hand, along with your ring finger, are used to support most of the weight of the trumpet. They should rest against the valve casing next to the ring. This is another valve slide, and it is used to tune sharp notes which are played using the first valve. You will usually only move the first valve slightly, if at all. Your band instructor can help you learn which notes need to be tuned. This will affect your ability to operate the slide valves. You should try to make as little contact with the trumpet as possible, as this can affect the instrument’s acoustics. Most of the support of the trumpet comes from your left hand, so make sure you keep a firm grip. Otherwise, your right hand will have to compensate, which will affect your hand position and therefore your playing ability.

TL;DR in English: Hold the trumpet the same whether you are left- or right-handed. Place your left ring finger through the ring on the trumpet. Wrap your left index and middle fingers around the valve casing. Place your left thumb on the slide next to the first valve. Avoid resting your left palm against the valve casing. Grip the trumpet firmly with your left hand.

When you've caulked your baseboard and pulled your tape, all that's left to do is to allow it dry. Different types of caulk will have different drying times, so check your caulk's packaging for more information. Regardless of the amount of time it takes your caulk to dry, you'll want to ensure that no dirt or dust disturb it as it sets. You'll also want to ensure that young children and pets are kept away from the caulk as well. When it comes to caulking, minor errors are all too common. Usually, fixing these errors by hand before the caulk sets by using your fingers is simpler and easier than fixing the errors after the caulk dries. To do this, just repeat the smoothing process with your finger, using extra caulk as needed. If you notice an error after your caulk has dried, re-apply tape to the offending area, apply caulk to your finger, and work it into the crack or gap until it's well-blended with the surrounding dry caulk. When your caulk dries, the repair should be barely-visible.   If you used a caulking gun for your main job but have a small caulk tube handy, you may find that it's much easier to use the tube for touch-up work than to have to assemble a caulk gun again, dispense caulk, and potentially clean up spills. Just be sure to use the same type of caulk as you used for the main job! As always, remember to remove the tape while the caulk is still fresh. Congratulations! You're done. All that's left to do is to return your work area to the way it was before you began. Release the pressure on your caulking gun and remove the cartridge. Most cartridges come with a cap to preserve the leftover caulk. If yours does not, try using plastic wrap and a rubber band or tape. Wash your hands and your equipment with soap, water, and a washcloth. Remove any garbage or debris and replace any furniture, rugs, etc. you moved.  When using leftover caulk at a later date, note that you may need to use a nail or tack to remove dried caulk from the nozzle of the cartridge.

Create a new folder. Name it whatever you like.

Understand how to create folders on your computer. Remember to use intuitive labels for your folders. Go to the folder in which you want to create your filing system. Create a base folder. Open the base folder. Create a "Temporary" folder. Create a folder for each category of document you want to organize. Create subfolders for your category folders. Move files into your filing system. Create hidden folders

To find it, click the Finder icon in the Dock (a smiling blue and gray Mac logo), then click Dropbox in the left panel.  This folder is like your Dropbox “home,” meaning that anything you add to this folder will be synced to your Dropbox account so you can access them from anywhere. If you’ve already been using Dropbox on another computer or at Dropbox.com, those files will appear in this folder. Your Dropbox can contain up to 300,000 files. If you go over that amount, you may experience slowness or unexpected behavior. Once you’ve added a new file to the folder, Dropbox will sync that file to your account. If you use Dropbox on another device or on the web, you’ll be able to see that file at that location shortly.  Another way to move a file to your Dropbox is to right-click (or press Ctrl as you left-click), the file and select “Move to Dropbox.” Dropbox will constantly monitor this folder and sync your changes to the cloud. If you don’t have a lot of space on your computer, use Dropbox Selective Sync to make sure only crucial files and folders are synced. Here’s how to set it up:  Click the Dropbox icon in the menu bar at the top-right corner of the screen. Click the gear icon. Click Preferences. Click Accounts. Click Change Settings…  Remove the check marks from any folders you do not want to sync. Click Update to save your changes. The fastest way to do this is by accessing https://www.dropbox.com in a web browser. Once you’re signed in, click your avatar at the top of the page, then click Settings to open your account menu. The amount of available space appears beneath your email address.

TL;DR in English: Open your Dropbox folder. Drag a file or folder to the Dropbox folder. Change which files are synced. Check how much space you’re using.

Go online to Pixar news sources, such as http://www.pixarpost.com/ and https://pixarplanet.com. These websites typically post about different charitable auction opportunities that happen from time to time. The purpose of these is to raise money for different organizations, such as the LA Food Bank or the Singing Stones School. Follow the directions on the website in order to place your bid, as you may get a tour if you have the highest one. While this is a good way to get a tour, it can be extremely expensive. Another way that Pixar uses charity fundraising to offer tours is by temporarily giving the public an opportunity to buy touring tickets, usually just before a film premier. Check out https://www.charitybuzz.com/ to see if any charity ticket opportunities have been posted. This is another pricey option. For example, tickets for a charity event in 2011 that included a black tie dinner, a screening, and an exclusive tour were $1,000 USD each. While it may be harder to get a tour by winning a contest, it’s a great option to pursue if you don’t have any personal connections and you also don’t want to spend a lot of money. Check out https://pixarplanet.com/blog/category/competition/ regularly to see what contests are posted. Contest entry requirements range in difficulty from answering a prompt with a short essay response to creating a trailer for a film. The prizes also vary, from special edition Blu-Ray disc sets to tours of the studio.

TL;DR in English: Participate in charitable auctions that are posted online. Purchase tour tickets for special charity events. Participate in contests that are posted online.

"I am grateful" in Spanish is written as "estoy agradecido" if you are male, or "estoy agradecida" if you are female. The phrase "thank you in advance" is written as "con gracias anticipadas" in Spanish. "Thank you sir" is written as "gracias señor" in Spanish. "Thank you madam" is written as "gracias  señora". Don't forget to put the diacritical tilde on the "n". To say "thank you again", for example, at the bottom of a letter,  you can write "con gracias repetidas". If you want to write "thank-you" as a noun, you would use the word "agradecimiento". For example, the phrase "she sent a thank-you for the wedding gifts" would be translated into Spanish as "ella envió una nota de agradecimiento por los regalos de boda".

TL;DR in English: Write "I am grateful". Write "thank you in advance". Write "thank you sir" or "thank you madam". Write "thank you again". Write "thank-you" as a noun.

You can create a new, empty folder and name it whatever you like on both Windows and Mac computers:   Windows — Right-click a blank space, select New, click Folder, type in your folder's name, and press ↵ Enter.  Mac — Go to a location in which you want to create a folder, click File, click New Folder, type in your folder's name, and press ↵ Enter. Instead of abbreviating your folder names or using slang, make sure you type out a concise, descriptive name for each folder.  For example, your documents folder should be labeled "Documents" or something similar, not "Docs". A good rule of thumb is to label your folders as though you were creating a filing system for another person to be able to navigate without help. If you're creating your filing system on the Desktop, make sure you're there before proceeding. Windows users cannot create the filing system in the This PC (or My Computer) app. This is the folder into which your filing system's folders will go, so name it something like "Files" or "My Filing System". Double-click the base folder to do so. This is the folder in which you'll store files that don't necessarily need to be saved for more than a few days (e.g., files for a project you're working on). The "Temporary" folder should always be directly inside of the base folder for easy access. Think of category folders as the "drawers" of the filing cabinet. This step will vary depending on your needs, but your necessary folder names may include some or all of the following:  Documents Music Pictures Videos Work Open a category folder, then create a folder inside of it to serve as a subcategory folder. This will further separate your files.  For example, if your category folder is labeled "Documents", you might have three subfolders entitled "Word Documents", "PDFs", and "Spreadsheets". You can repeat this process with subfolders as well: open a subfolder, then create a folder inside of it. Think of subfolders as the filing envelopes used in a filing cabinet drawer (where the category folder is the drawer)....

Tetanus — also known as lockjaw — is a serious bacterial disease that affects the nervous system. Tetanus bacteria enters the body through a wound, so it is important to see your doctor for a tetanus booster shot if you haven’t had one in the past 10 years. Tetanus causes painful muscle contractions, especially in the jaw, and can affect your ability to breathe.  Stay aware of signs that you might have tetanus, including:  Difficulty swallowing Spasms that last several minutes Stiffness in the neck or jaw Fever High blood pressure The Achilles tendon — a tendon connecting your heel to the muscles in your calf — is often at special risk for rupture if you have jungle rot.  Ruptured tendons can be identified by hearing or feeling a pop or snap in your calf followed quickly by a terrible pain in your leg or ankle.  With a ruptured tendon, you will be unable to walk properly or put a normal amount of weight on the leg. Most cases of ruptured tendons require surgery.  Talk to your doctor if you suspect you’ve ruptured a tendon. As the tropical ulcer progresses, it might lead to gangrene, a medical condition characterized by the death of tissue due to infection.  If you suspect you have gangrene, contact a medical professional immediately for treatment.  Your ulcer might have become gangrenous if:  You have extreme pain in your affected limb followed by a period of numbness Your skin near the ulcer is deeply discolored and appears bruised.  It might be red, purple, black, blue, or bronze in color. Your skin is pale, hard, numb, or cold. You have an extreme fever and/or low blood pressure in addition to any of the above symptoms. Edema is buildup of bodily fluid that causes the skin to swell and become discolored.  If you notice yourself accumulating weight in your legs or feet, experiencing stiffness in your joints, or feeling aches and pains in your legs, you probably have edema.  Combined with related symptoms, this may indicate a case of tropical ulcers. Hyperpigmentation is the darkening of skin in uneven...

TL;DR in English: Look out for tetanus. Check for ruptured tendons. Look for gangrene. Look for edema. Look for hyperpigmentation.

Using a mouth rinse on a daily basis can help clean out the back of your throat and prevent bacteria that causes bad breath and a variety of mouth diseases.  Mouth rinses may contain antimicrobial agents to prevent disease, fluoride that reduces tooth decay, and odor neutralizers to combat bad breath.  Some mouth rinses are merely cosmetic, meaning they seek to eliminate bad breath temporarily but do not have the bacteria fighting powers of stronger brands. Make sure you purchase a mouth rinse that is therapeutic and designed to clean your mouth and throat in addition to eliminating bad breath.  Mouth rinses will come with instructions on how to use them. Most of them require you to swish or gargle the liquid for a number of seconds before spitting it into the sink and rinsing out your mouth with water. Tonsils are small collections of lymph tissue in the back of the throat that are often the cause of infections and bad breath. Some people have their tonsils removed via operation to keep these from occurring, but if you still have your tonsils they may require upkeep to prevent the buildup of bacteria. Sometimes, tonsil stones, which are concretions of food particles and mucus, build up in the folds of the tonsils and cause bad breath. They may also make you feel like you're gagging, or like you need to clear your throat constantly.  If you're having trouble with tonsil stones, you may need to regularly irrigate your tonsils, using an irrigation system you can purchase at a drug store. Tonsil irrigation systems work somewhat like nasal or ear irrigation systems do, in that a rubber syringe is used to spray water and some kind of medication in the back of the throat to remove unwanted debris. Make sure you don't use too much pressure or force, or you could irritate your tonsils or cause bleeding.  You can also buy tonsil sprays at most drug stores. These are medicated sprays you use on the back of your throat to clean out your tonsils and prevent decay.  If your tonsils are growing uncomfortably large, taking...

TL;DR in English: Use mouth rinses. Take care of your tonsils. Brush your tongue.

Professional groups provide opportunities to network, present and learn about research, continue your education, and find jobs. There are a number of organizations serving the field of criminology, such as:  The International Society for Criminology  The American Society of Criminology  The Academy of Criminal Justice Sciences  The Law and Society Association  The Midwestern Criminal Justice Association  The Western Society of Criminology Individuals trained in criminology find work in numerous careers. While you may look for an entry-level position at first, there are usually good opportunities for advancement. However it may be difficult to cross fields. For instance, if you are hired with a state agency, it might be more difficult to later get an advanced job at a federal agency, and vice versa. Criminologists find positions with:  Police departments The FBI State and local governmental agencies Colleges and universities Consultancy agencies During the process of being hired for a job in criminology, you can expect to have to pass background and security checks. As participants in the fight against crime, criminologists are expected to have good records and impeccable ethics. Your day-to-day work as a criminologist will vary depending upon your specific position and area of expertise. Most jobs in the field, however, eventually involve some combination of fieldwork, analysis, and reporting. For instance:  You might be present at a crime scene, to help gather evidence and determine exactly what occurred. You might investigate how the crime is related to social issues. For instance, you might consider how crimes are related to other problems, such as drug abuse, poverty, and corruption. You might be involved with cataloging information, processing data, and writing reports based on criminal investigations.  You might be involved with helping policy makers determine how to respond to and eliminate crime. Many individuals trained in criminology wind up working in jobs that do not bear the title...

Change up what you cook with and eat. Reduce your portions. Try different desserts. Buy imported foods.

Tell the person with whom you've been having an affair why you are ending it. Remember that this should be the last intimate conversation you have with this person. Say everything you want to say, and allow the other person to speak as well.  Don't allow the conversation to go on for too long. As with any breakup, the longer it's drawn out, the more confusing and upsetting it becomes. Make it clear that you don't plan on communicating further, unless you know each other from work and must communicate in a professional setting. Hopefully the person with whom you're breaking up will take it well, but you should be prepared for him or her to be extremely sad or angry that you're breaking things off. Stay strong, and just walk away if necessary. It's normal to feel sadness, and you may want to reach out for comfort, but you risk reigniting the affair if you ask to have another conversation.  Help yourself out by erasing the person from your email chat list and social media sites. Delete the person's contact information from your phone. If you have to see the person at work, keep things professional at all times. Avoid one-on-one conversations, and don't go to lunch together.

TL;DR in English: Have an honest conversation. Be prepared for a range of reactions. Avoid the temptation to hash it out again.

Friends are a critical part of a social network, which is why it’s important to maintain a friend group. Make an effort to reach out and connect with your current friends. Stay in touch, and try to see them when you can. If you don’t feel supported by your current friend network or if you’re in a new area, work on making new friends.  There is no set number of friends and acquaintances that you should have. If you’re more introverted, you may choose to keep a small group of close-knit friends. If you’re more extroverted, you may have a couple close friends and many casual friends. Both are okay. Use local meetup sites and message boards to find people in your area with similar interests. A healthy family dynamic should allow you to spend time with your kids, take time with just your partner, and stay connected to your parents and relatives. If you have children, spend some bonding time with them every day. If you have a partner, schedule a weekly date night with them. Have a standing phone call with your parents once a week. Connecting with your family will help keep your relationships strong. If your relationship with your biological family isn’t strong, you may choose to focus more on your close personal friends. People who are family by choice instead of blood are just as important. Communicating clearly and effectively helps enhance almost any interpersonal relationship. Improve your communication by practicing clear, concise speaking as well as active listening. Practice these skills with everyone in your daily life from your friends and family to your coworkers to the check-out clerk at the grocery store.  When your actively listening, the speaker has your full attention. Focus on both the words they are saying, as well as their body language and emotion. Offer confirmation that you understand their message with statements like, “I understand that you want us to spend more time together.” If you find you are becoming stressed or overly-emotional in a situation, ask to excuse yourself or put the subject...

In Europe, people are much more into locally grown food and local restaurants. It is hard to go through any major city in Europe such as London, Paris, or Florence without seeing people selling local produce on the side of the street. Find the farmer's market in your town and buy as much fresh food as possible. Also start eating at locally owned eateries. The average portion size in American restaurants is much larger than most in Europe. Even with home cooked meals, in Europe they eat much smaller portions during each meal. Try to change the portions that you eat.  You can make less food at home with smaller portions at each meal. If you go out, try splitting your portions with someone else or taking the leftovers home for lunch the next day. In France, they eat much smaller portions than in the United States. For breakfast, the French simply have a piece of fruit or a croissant with their cafe latte, if they have breakfast at all. They have larger lunches, where they eat pasta, protein, vegetables, and fruit, typically in large groups. For dinner, the French likely have another small meal with their families, full of fruits, vegetables, and protein. Take your time while you eat smaller portions of foods that you truly enjoy. European desserts are known for being decadent and delicious. Look for a bakery that specializes in European treats. Find some recipes for traditional European desserts. You also might be able to find imported options at the grocery store.  Search for an Italian bakery near you. Italian bakeries are known for cannoli, which come in flavors such as traditional ricotta, chocolate, strawberry, limoncello, and even caramel pecan and pumpkin. These bakeries also carry ricotta pie, meringues, florentine cookies, and lobster tails, which are multi-layer pastries. If you can't find a bakery in your area, try making some recipes at home. Try a traditional German streusel or Black Forrest cake. Make sure you look for recipes that detail how to bake them in the same way they are made in Germany....

S’mores are traditional campfire fare in many places. You make them by layering chocolate between two graham crackers, and then sticking a hot marshmallow in between to melt the chocolate. Per s’more, you'll need:  Two graham crackers Two squares of chocolate One marshmallow There are a couple ways you can do this, depending on whether you're sitting around the fire or at home wishing you were! To heat the marshmallow on the fire, pierce it through the middle with a roasting stick. Hold it over the flames until it becomes golden brown on the outside. To make s’mores at home, preheat your oven to 400 F (204 C). Place each marshmallow on top of a graham cracker, and roast them in the oven for up to five minutes. Place one graham cracker on a plate, followed by the two pieces of chocolate. Place the marshmallow on top, and then use the second graham cracker on top to sandwich in the marshmallow. Apply gentle pressure to the top and bottom of the s’more as you pull out the roasting stick. At home, place the graham cracker and marshmallow on a plate. Arrange the chocolate on top, and then top the whole thing off with a second graham cracker.

TL;DR in English: Gather your ingredients. Heat the marshmallow. Assemble the s’more.

For example, if all of your data begins in column "A", you'd right-click the "A" at the top of the page. This will add a column to the left of your current left column. After doing this, any data that was in the "A" column will be relisted as being in the "B" column and so on.  Exclude the quotation marks. The "RAND" command applies a number between 0 and 1 to your selected cell. If Excel attempts to automatically format your "RAND" command, delete the formatting and re-type the command. You should see a decimal (e.g., 0.5647) appear in your selected cell.  Doing this will copy the "RAND" command.  For a Mac, you'll hold down ⌘ Command instead of Control. You can also right-click the "RAND" cell and then select Copy. This will likely be the "A2" cell. Clicking the "A1" cell and highlighting from there can cause a sorting error. To do this, you'll hold down ⇧ Shift while clicking the cell at the bottom of your data range. For example, if your data in columns "B" and "C" extends all the way down to cell 100, you would hold down ⇧ Shift and click "A100" to select all "A" cells from A2 to A100. Doing so will paste the random sample command into all selected cells (e.g., A2 through A100). Once this is done, you'll need to sort your data using the random numbers to reorder your results. Again, Mac users will need to hold down ⌘ Command instead of Control.

TL;DR in English: Right-click the far left column's name. Click Insert. Select the new "A1" cell. Type "= RAND()" into this cell. Press ↵ Enter. Select the cell with the random sample number. Hold down Control and tap C. Select the cell below your random sample number. Highlight the rest of the random sample cells. Hold down Control and tap V.

If they are handled from birth, they will be tame and docile. If they have no positive physical contact with people until they are full-grown, they will likely not adjust well to being handled unless they are given extensive training. Chinchillas are usually very friendly but shouldn't be over-handled. Make sure your chinchilla does not bark as you go to pick it up. If it does, don't pick it up. This is one of their ways of telling you to back off. Chinchillas have other defenses as well, such as losing fur, biting, and spraying urine. If your chinchilla is doing any of these things, you may be handling it too much. Lift your pet like you would for a rabbit. Slide your hand under the chinchilla's belly and place your other hand on top of the chinchilla. Use the hand under the chinchilla to support its hind legs and bum so it feels secure. Don't hold the chinchilla too tightly, but do remember that they can be squirmy, so you need to hold them firmly.  It is very important that you don't squeeze, especially around the upper torso. Chinchillas have what is known as a "floating ribcage" and you can cause severe internal injuries to it by squeezing that area. Make sure to be gentle with them to avoid scaring them.

TL;DR in English: Begin handling a chinchilla weekly from an early age. Read a chinchilla's cues to determine if they want to be handled. Lift your chinchilla properly.

Porcelain dolls are extremely fragile and should be handled with great care. A porcelain doll that is a child's toy does not need to be handled with gloves. However, when a doll is a collectible or a decoration you should always wear white cotton gloves when you handle it. The oils on your skin can stain the doll's porcelain and clothing, as well as attract dust. When cleaning or dressing your doll lay it out on a towel, not directly on a table. This will protect your doll from getting any dirt or smudges on it. The towel also helps prevent breakage by adding another layer of protection for your fragile doll. If your doll is a collectible or you want it be extra safe, store it in its original box or a ventilated container. You can purchase doll display cases online that work well for this. However, if you smoke, store your doll in an airtight container to prevent stains. The doll should always be out of direct sunlight and be in room temperature, not extreme temperatures. Keep your doll somewhere not too close to a window to avoid high temperatures and harsh light from outside from damaging your doll. Carefully detangle your doll's hair with a hair detangling pick. Keep your doll's hairline dry, otherwise the glue might come loose and the wig might fall off. Synthetic and straight hair can be carefully brushed with a wire brush. Curly hair should not be brushed because the curls could get ruined.

TL;DR in English:

Place your bowl and whisk in the freezer for 15 to 30 minutes. If you are using a stand mixer or a food processor, see if you can detach the bowl, and put it into the freezer. If you can't, then don't worry about it. Working with cold equipment prevents the whipped cream from getting too soft. Place everything, except for the strawberry purée/jam into the bowl of your mixer. Beat the ingredients together until they get soft peaks. You can use something that you bought from the store, or you can make your own. You want the color and texture to be even and consistent. If you are using a handheld mixer, be sure to scrape the bottom and sides of the bowl. At this point, your whipped cream is ready to use. It may not be perfect to your liking, however, so give it a taste, and add more sugar, cream, or purée/jam. Be sure to beat the frosting well after each addition.  If it is too thin or not sweet enough, add more sugar. If you want more of a strawberry flavor, add more strawberry purée or strawberry jam. If it is too thick, add more heavy whipping cream. Use the frosting within 3 days.

TL;DR in English: Start with cold mixing equipment. Beat the cold, heavy whipping cream, vanilla extract, and granulated white sugar until soft peaks form. Add ⅓ cup (80 milliliters) of chilled strawberry purée or strawberry jam. Beat everything together until stiff peaks form. Taste your whipped cream and make any necessary adjustments. Use the frosting immediately, or cover it and store it in the fridge. Finished.

Or you could pick a common topic that's regularly associated with the public, like "mean" cliques in middle school or a "Cinderella" like story, and add a twist to it. Just make sure that people will not be annoyed by that. Another method that works is to pick a few key words of the theme your story will be and write them down. For example, a few words of the theme of your story could be "scary", "horror", and "terrifying". It's basically the mood of your story, the theme of it and what "feeling" it sets off to your readers. If you want to base your story towards younger people, write about youthful topics. If your age group is based towards older people, it is better to write about more mature topics. Don't write about callow topics if you're basing your story towards older people. However, keep in mind, some older people do like younger story topics. Make sure the characters relate to your story and try to mix it up a little. Like you could have a bizarre character be in a professional business. You can write a whole profile for your characters, or you could just keep it simple by just writing their name, age, and maybe a small description. Give them a unique name. Give them an unexpected personality. Just don't overdo it or readers will be confused. This plot could be anything, from talking zebras to upwards gravity, anything. Make it interesting and unique. Make up a topic that was never used before. That may sound hard, but it's really not. Pick a random scene with a unique topic and plot. It's really important to make sure it interests you.

TL;DR in English: Pick a plot that you thought of and decide if it interests you or not. Know the age group for your story. Create the characters. Start to create your story. Type your story  or write it.

He will be highly intimidating at first. His attacks are quick, he has a huge range, and he deals a large amount of damage. However, he becomes easier to deal with once you've memorized his pattern. Because of Xaldin's huge range, it's not advised that you use Dodge Roll, especially against Wind Cannon. It is a homing type of attack and will chase Sora  until it hits. All Xaldin’s attacks, except the whirlwind from his Desperation Attack, is block able  with Guard. The "Jump" reaction command is a bit special. It isn't a cinematic reaction command. Rather, it's similar to the Lancer Nobody's reaction command where you store it and use it as an attack command. The “Jump” reaction command can only be stacked a maximum of 9 times.

The quickest way to change an MOV file to MP4 is to simply change the extension. MP4 is a subset of the MOV format, so no conversion is actually necessary. This will work on any operating system, and doesn't require any additional software. This is especially useful because QuickTime 7 Pro is no longer available for sale, and this method is free. Windows may be hiding the extensions of your files. The extensions will need to be visible in order to change them.  Windows 10 and 8 - Click the "View" tab at the top your Explorer window and check the "File name extensions" box. Windows 7 and earlier - Open the Control Panel and select "Folder Options." Click the "View" tab and uncheck "Hide extensions for known file types." This will allow you to change the name of the file, as well as the extension. When you press ↵ Enter or ⏎ Return, you'll be prompted to confirm that you want to change the extension. Your operating system will warn you that changing the file name can make the file unreadable. You can ignore this warning and proceed.  In macOS, click "Use .mp4" in the window that appears. In Windows, click "Yes" in the window that appears. Double-click the renamed file to confirm that loads in your media player. The file is now in MP4 format, and will work with any player or device that supports it.  You can always change the extension back to .mov to revert it to its original form. This will work for 99% of MOV files you come across. If this doesn't work, see one of the following methods.

TL;DR in English: Open the folder containing the MOV file. Make sure extensions are displayed (Windows only). Right-click on the MOV file and select "Rename." Change .mov to .mp4 at the end of the file name. Confirm that you want to change the extension. Test out your file.

If your item is small enough, pick it up with a pair of tongs and dip it straight into the bucket or vat of glaze until it is completely covered, remove it, and then clear excess glaze with a damp sponge, a brush, or a paint scraper. You can buy specialized glazing tongs at a pottery supply store. If your tongs leave marks on the pot, touch them up by brushing them with glaze once you remove your item. If your item is too large to dip into the glaze but small enough to hold over the bucket or vat, you can pour it over the outside of your pot. This will probably result in a thin layer outer layer of glaze. If your item is too large to move during the glazing process, apply the glaze with the tools at hand. Use large brushes to cover the main parts of your pottery, and small brushes or a sponge to fill in the smaller areas. Don't dip your tools straight into the buckets or vats of glaze. Put some of your glaze into a a cup or bowl, and dip your brush or sponge into the smaller vessel. Once you have a layer of glaze on your pottery, set it aside to let it dry. You might want to apply a second layer of glaze to use multiple colors or create designs, but if you do so immediately after the first layer the colors might run together. You can add as many layers of glaze as you want, and mix up your colors as well as your brushing and sponging techniques to create unique designs.

TL;DR in English: Dip your pot into the glaze. Pour on glaze. Apply glaze with a brush or sponge. Allow the glaze to dry. Add more layers of glaze.

These can range widely from a dog in mild discomfort that appears quieter than usual, to the dog with an explosive disc protrusion that suddenly goes off its back legs and is paralyzed. Some subtle signs of back pain that can clue you in that there is a potential problem include:  Reluctance to move: The pain associated with back problems means the dog is unwilling to move and may stand in one spot, head lowered. He may yelp or cry out when you try to put his collar on. Some dogs refuse to eat or drink because lowering their head to the bowl is painful. Arched back: Many dogs with back pain adopt a hunched back stance, and stand stiffly, guarding their movements. Altered behavior: The dog may be reluctant to jump up onto a favorite sofa, or not be able to go upstairs to bed. Back pain is immensely painful and many dogs will vocalize, cry out, and whimper in response to the pain. They may even cry out just in anticipation of the pain when they are asked to move. Your dog is not just being dramatic when it yelps in pain. If pressure to the spinal cord is severe enough, it can cause nerve damage. This most commonly affects the back legs. The dog may not be able to stand, and when it tries to move it "wheelbarrows" forward, its front paws pulling its back end along. A dog with sudden paralysis needs to be seen by a veterinarian in order for the spinal damage to be assessed and treated. Severe paralysis can interfere with bladder and bowel function, and the dog may either become incontinent or it may be unable to empty its bladder. Your veterinarian should give you guidance about how to deal with this problem. If your dachshund shows sign of back pain, then you should restrict its movements so that it is forced to rest. Do not allow it to move around the house, instead restrict it to a puppy crate while you make an appointment with the vet. When you take the dog to the vet, carry it to the car and carry it into the vet's office, as moving awkwardly could cause a grumbling disc to rupture.

TL;DR in English: Keep an eye out for subtle symptoms of back pain. Take your dog's response to pain seriously. Take a dog with sudden paralysis to the vet immediately. Force your dog to stop moving.

Use a reflexology chart or Part One to find the zone that corresponds to the area of your body on which you want to work. Or you can simply work the entire hands, which reflexologists believe helps to promote overall wellness.  For instance, if you suffer from a sinus headache, then you would work on your fingers between the fingertips and the first knuckles since this zone represents the head and sinuses. This area may also help relieve symptoms of sinusitis, although no proven evidence exists.  As another example, if you’re suffering from constipation, you would apply the techniques to the zones corresponding to your intestines, which is at the bottom of the palms straight down from your middle fingers. Place your fully extended thumb on the area you want to focus on. Slide the thumb back slowly while flexing the first thumb knuckle upward. Moving slowly and steadily move the thumb knuckle up and down, walking it over the reflex point. Rest your thumb on the area you wish to manipulate. Maintain a steady touch and rotate your thumb in a circle on the area while slowly increasing pressure. After performing a rotating motion, holding your thumb on the reflex point with medium pressure increases relaxation. Hold for a count of three. If you have chest congestion, for instance, you would isolate the correct zone on each hand (the top of the palm just below the last set of finger knuckles). Then you can use a thumb-walking technique across the zone. Finally, apply the rotating technique to smaller sections of the zone with a hold on the section before moving to the next. As you increase pressure on portions of the hands, you should apply as much pressure as you can without causing yourself (or the person on whom you’re applying reflexology) any pain. The firm pressure will ensure that you trigger the reflex, but the action should never cause pain or discomfort. Reflexologists believe that it is important to stimulate the corresponding zones on both hands when applying the techniques. For instance, do not work...

If you come across any cracks or chipped ones, set them aside for a different project. Any cracks or chips will make create an uneven painting surface, which will make the shell harder to paint. If you don't have a beach near you, you can always buy shells from an art store. Some florists may sell also shells as vase fillers as well. Rinse them using warm water, and scrub them with an old toothbrush or manicure brush. If the shells are very smelly, leave them in a bleach solution for up to 24 hours. Keep in mind that the bleach may also turn the shells pure white. If you are using store-bought shells, then you don't have to clean them. A simple rinse may be a good idea to get rid of any dust, however. This is not completely necessary, but it will make the surface smoother to paint on. Choose an acrylic paint primer, and paint both sides of the shell. Let each side dry before adding a second coat. Watercolor is easily absorbed into the shell, and will be translucent when it dries. It will "dye" the shell a new color while allowing the shell's original patterns and designs to show through. It is best for solid-color designs and "tie dye" designs. You can also work with liquid water colors. They are more saturated and will give you brighter results. You will need to add a few drops of water to dilute them, however. Acrylic paint is opaque when it dries, and it will completely cover the shell. You will still see the shell's texture, but you won't see its original color or pattern. Acrylic paint is also great for layered designs, but you will need to let each layer dry first before moving onto the next. Choose a brush with fine bristles, such as taklon or sable. Avoid brushes that are made with horsehair or boar bristles, as they will leave behind brush strokes. You should also avoid using bushes that have bent or messed-up bristles. Consider having an assortment of brushes, such as a flat brush and a fine-pointed, round-tipped brush. You can paint just about anything on your shell, from animal faces, to beach...

TL;DR in English: Gather some shells and inspect them for any cracks and chips. Clean the shells, if necessary. Consider priming the shell if you plan on painting it a solid color. Choose watercolor paint if you want the shell's features to show through. Choose acrylic paint for fine designs, scenery, and solid-color designs. Get a good quality brush. Pick a theme.

It can be tempting to order take out at the end of a long day, or buy lunch out during a stressful work week. However, this can get expensive with time. You should work on eating most of your meals at home. Spending $40 to $50 on groceries for the week is much less expensive than spending between $10 and $20 a few days a week eating out.  Try to plan meals for the week. On Sunday, for example, you can make a big batch of something like soup of casserole. You can eat this for lunch each week, bringing a Tupperware container to the office. Plan dinners as well. If you don't like to cook, keep it simple. You can do breakfast for dinner, and make yourself a quick omelet. You can also make an easy, healthy sandwich with whole wheat bread, veggies, and lean proteins. Certain items may be cheaper to buy in bulk. Some warehouse stores specialize in selling certain items in bulk. At the beginning of each month, try stocking up on paper towels or toilet paper. You should also look into purchasing non-perishable foods, like beans and rice, in bulk.  If you always have basic food staples and kitchen and bathroom supplies on hand, you'll save yourself an extra $5 to $10 making these purchases during your regular shopping trip. Many ATMs have a fee or surcharge when you withdraw money. While this is usually only $3 to $5, it can add up if you're using the ATM a lot. Try to find ATMs associated with your bank, which you can usually do with the assistance of a smartphone. You can also get cash back at the register when checking out at many locations, allowing you to avoid ATMs altogether. Oftentimes, people go shopping out of boredom. You may have a few hours to kill in the afternoon, so you head to your favorite store to browse outfits. Shopping for fun is a temptation it's better to avoid, however, as you'll end up spending on things you do not really need or want. A new shirt may seem like a worthy investment in the moment, but be honest with yourself. Do you really need another shirt? Is this really worth the extra $20?...

TL;DR in English: Eat at home. Buy in bulk. Watch out for ATM fees. Do not shop for fun. Avoid specialized products. Stick to a shopping list at the grocery store.

Once you have been screened for rectal cancer, your doctor will analyze your test results and let you know if you test positive for the cancer. Alternatively, you may have polyps, or abnormal cells, on your rectum that are not cancerous but may need to be observed more closely in the event they do become cancerous. Rectal cancer that is caught early has a high recovery rate, so the sooner you know you have it, the more effective the treatment will be. There are 4 stages of rectal cancer. Early stage rectal cancer has a higher survival rate than late-stage rectal cancer. The stages are:  Stage 1, where the cancer is just within the lining of your rectum. Stage 2, where the cancer has spread to the surface covering your rectum or nearby organs. Stage 3, where the cancer has spread into your lymph nodes. Stage 4, where the cancer has spread to other areas of your body, such as your liver. The stage of your rectal cancer will then dictate your treatment options. Most rectal cancers can be treated effectively with chemotherapy and medication. If you do not test positive for rectal cancer, you should still get screened at intervals recommended by your doctor, especially if you are between 50 and 75. This cancer is highly treatable if caught early so regular screening is the best way to detect it and prevent it from becoming life-threatening. Your doctor can create a schedule for screenings for rectal cancer so you can stay on top of them and stay healthy. While some people may need a screening every few years, others may only need them once a decade. Your doctor will help you decide what's right for you.

Buy a hank of paracord. Melt the working end. Loop the working end around the belt buckle four (or more) times. Knot the working end.

Layer the colors on top of each other to create specific shades. Use a colorless pencil to create smooth, grainless color blends. Wipe rubbing alcohol over the area to blend the colors.

Respectable breeders will be very knowledgeable about the breed, which includes any genetic problems. Unethical breeders will not be able to answer questions about the breed, and they may try to tell you there are no genetic defects.  Try asking the breeder questions about the dog or the breed and listen carefully to the answers. If it sounds like they are skirting the question or not answering, you may have an unethical breeder on your hands. Be wary of any breeder who breeds more than two breeds. Also be wary of breeders who promise "rare" dogs, or "rare" colors or sizes. Ask plenty of questions about the dogs before you buy them. You should ask to see where the puppies and parent dogs spend their time. Ethical breeders will have no problems letting you see this area. Unethical breeders will not let you see where they keep the dogs, and often only let you see one dog at a time instead of the entire litter.  Unethical breeders will often request that you meet them somewhere else to get the puppy, often before meeting you. Ethical breeders will want to meet you first before letting you take the dog, and they will want to do it where they keep the puppies. Ask for health records for the puppies. Responsible breeders will have all the tests, shots, and other records from a vet. Many unethical breeders will have the care list provided on their own letterhead, with no proof they have been seen by a vet at all. Responsible breeders will not try to sell unhealthy or sickly dogs. Dogs that look sick, are too skinny, or have a poor coat may indicate you are dealing with an unethical breeder. Dogs that are scared or antisocial also point to irresponsible breeding.  This is why it's important to see the puppy with the whole litter. Puppies should be socialized with the litter and their parent. Look for dirty or unhygienic living conditions. This can be a sign of poor health or health problems in the dogs. Ethical dog breeders breed their dogs to improve the breed. They are proud of their dogs and are active at dog...

TL;DR in English: Look for knowledge of the breed. Evaluate the breeder's behavior. Assess the puppy's health. Determine if the breeder is involved in the dog community. Evaluate registration papers carefully. Ask for a guarantee. Evaluate the age of the dogs. Evaluate the payment. Notice how the breeder interacts with the dogs.

You can find paracord hanks in most outdoor or climbing stores, or online. Buy a hank of paracord in a color you like.  One of the advantages of making a Slatt’s Rescue Belt is you don’t need to measure out a specific amount of paracord before starting; you can work directly from a hank. To add multiple colors to your belt, buy a patterned hank of paracord with multiple colors already in it. For the Slatt’s Rescue Belt, you can only use one hank of paracord. Hold the flame of a lighter to the starting end of the paracord for several seconds, melting the rope and preventing it from fraying or unraveling. Only melt the working end; do not worry about the finishing end of the paracord yet. This will seal off the end and prevent it from fraying. Insert the melted paracord end beneath the bar of your first belt buckle half. Wrap the paracord around this bar in an overhand direction, pulling it back up from beneath the bar again to create a full loop. Make four loops for a standard belt buckle, adjusting based on the width of the buckle.  Note that wider buckles will need more loops while thinner buckles will need fewer loops. You can use any kind of belt buckle for this project. A metal one or a plastic side release one will work. All loops should flow in the same direction and should be slightly loose so that you'll be able to manipulate them later on. Leave at least 2 or 3 inches (5 or 7.5 cm) of excess paracord hanging out from the belt buckle bar when you finish wrapping these starting loops. Tie a tight, overhand knot from the excess paracord hanging from beneath the buckle bar. This knot must be tight to prevent the cord from unraveling. Adjust the wrapped loops as needed, pulling the working end of the cord back out, so that the knot lies snug against the buckle bar. Note that the loops should still be somewhat loose.

TL;DR in English: Buy a hank of paracord. Melt the starting end. Loop the starting end around the belt buckle four (or more) times. Knot the starting end.

This is a great way to create new colors if you don’t have the color that you want. This effect is also useful if you want to create a color blend, such as the multitude of shades that make up a sunset. Draw the darkest color first and then layer the lighter color on top. This helps the colors to blend and merge into each another.  Blue and yellow create green, red and blue make purple, and red and yellow create orange. Use different shades of the same color to create a medium shade. For example, layer a light blue over a dark blue to create a medium blue. If you have layered colors over each other and you think that they look a bit grainy, use a colorless pencil to even out the color. This waxy pencil helps to merge the colors together and creates a smoother blend. Simply, rub the colorless pencil back and forth over the area that you want to blend until you are happy with the finish.  Colorless pencils are sometimes known as blender pencils because of their brilliant blending abilities. Purchase a colorless pencil from an art or stationery store. Rubbing alcohol helps to deepen the colors and causes them to merge together. Dip a cotton ball in rubbing alcohol and then wipe it over the area that you want to blend. Rub the cotton ball back and forth to create a smooth, blended look.  Always use rubbing alcohol in a ventilated area, as it has strong fumes. This technique works best on heavy paper.

Roll the ends of your jeans up 2 or 3 times until they’re nicely cuffed. You can choose a T-shirt for a casual look, or a blouse to dress up the outfit. Wear a duster cardigan to complete the look—choose a black or gray duster for everyday wear, or wear a cardigan duster in a pale pink or blue to add color to your outfit.  For example, wear light-washed cuffed jeans, black flats, a plain black T-shirt, and a light pink duster. Wear statement jewelry to dress up your outfit, such as a necklace or earrings. Dusters are great when you need a light sweater in cooler weather. If you're wearing a casual cotton or knit dress, pair it with a similarly-casual duster made from a cotton or knit fabric.  Wear a blue sleeveless dress with a black or cream duster. You can wear nice sneakers, flip flops, or sandals with the outfit. During spring and summer, put on a pair of shorts with a tank top. Choose a duster made of linen, cotton, or a lightweight knit to add flair to your outfit. Wear sneakers or sandals to complete the casual look.  Choose a sleeveless duster to ensure you stay cool.

Using a long, sharp knife, cut the celery stalks about 1 inch (2.5 cm) to 2 inches (5.1 cm) from the base. This will provide room for new stalks to grow without removing the necessary nutrients.  Thoroughly clean the cut celery stalk base with water and pat dry with a paper towel or cloth. Make sure that you have cleaned the celery stalk base well and have cleaned the stalk of any dirt, debris, or bugs. Using warm water will stimulate the growth of the new celery stalks. Place the cut and cleaned celery stalk base in a bowl with the bottom of the plant down and the recently cut portion facing up.  Make sure that the bowl you use is clean and deep enough to hold several ounces of water without spilling over. Fill the bowl with enough water so that about 2/3 of the celery stalk base is submerged, approximately .5 inches (1.3 cm) to 1.5 inches (3.8 cm) depending on the size of your celery stalk base. It is crucial that your celery stalk base gets a lot of natural light. To generate the energy it needs to grow, your celery stalk will need an average of about six to seven hours of natural light per day. If you do not have a place indoors that receives enough natural light, you can learn how to use grow lights. This will help you re-create the conditions necessary for your celery to grow. As your celery stalk begins to grow, it will absorb a significant amount of the water surrounding the stalk. It is important that you replenish the water so that your celery can continue to flourish.  Check the water level in the bowl containing your celery stalk daily. Top off the water in the bowl as needed so that 2/3 of your celery stalk remains submerged. Change the water every 2 to 3 days. This will ensure that your celery stalk has the clean water it needs to grow tall and strong.

TL;DR in English: Cut the celery stalks from the base to make room for new stalks to grow. Put the celery stalk base in a 2 inches (5.1 cm) to 3 inches (7.6 cm) deep bowl partially filled with warm water. Store the celery stalk base in the bowl in a sunny place for 5 to 7 days. Change the water regularly.

When the pronoun is "it," the possessive form is "its." Like the possessive determiners "hers" and "his," "its" doesn't need an apostrophe to indicate possession.  Write "its" to describe something that belongs to, or is a part of, an animal, plant or inanimate object. Some example sentences may include:  My oak tree loses its leaves in autumn. My neighbor's cat never stays in its own yard. That bottle of wine is cheap, but it has its charms. Google needs to update its privacy policy. " Only use the apostrophe if "it's" is a contraction of "it is" or "it has." Some sample sentences include:  "It's a nice day" "It's been a nice day" "Let's see that movie: I hear it's amazing!"

TL;DR in English: Use "its" to indicate possession. Include an apostrophe when "it's" means "it is" or "it has.

When you don't want to keep the person guessing about why you don't want to be friends, a face to face conversation might be in order. Parks and coffee shops are good stops for breakups because they're neutral, public locations. Even though things might get emotional during your conversation, you'll both be likely to keep things contained if you're in a public place.  Avoid arranging to have a long meal together, since you might be ready to go before the food even arrives. If you don't want to meet in person, it's fine to break up with your friend over the phone. Avoid doing it over text, since it's harder to express yourself fully and have a real conversation. Do not break up with your friend in front of people you both know. This can be deeply embarrassing and hurtful. Be straightforward about why you don't want to be friends. Did your friend cheat with your boyfriend? Does he or she constantly cut you down? Whatever the reason, now is the time to spell it out. Telling your friend exactly what's going on is a brave thing to do, and in the end the person will probably be glad to know what happened. There is a situation in which being straightforward is not the kindest way to end a friendship. If you just don't like the person anymore, through no fault of his or her own, there's really no reason to say it out loud. If this is the case, go to Method 2 and let the friendship naturally fade. Your friend will either get defensive, apologize, or do a mix of both after your confrontation. You might want to hear him or her out, just in case there's the tiniest chance that you want to stay friends after all. If it's possible there was some kind of misunderstanding, you'll want to know. If that's not possible, continue the breakup process. Maybe you want to cut things off for good right here and now, or maybe you're fine seeing the person every now and then in a group setting. Whatever the case, be very clear that this is a breaking point, and from now on things will be different. Lay out your boundaries up front so...
