Test out different things you can attach stickers to. You'll get better results by attaching stickers to slower moving objects that don't get blurry. Got something in your video you don't want others to see? You can pin a 3D sticker to it, and it will remain covered throughout the entire clip, even as the camera moves around. The sticker will automatically resize as necessary. 3D stickers work great for replacing your pet's face with a smiley face. Take a video of your pet and pin a sticker to it. The sticker should track your pet's face as it moves in your video. You can pin more than one emoji to your video at once, allowing different emoji to track different objects. There is no practical limit to the number of emoji that you pin to objects. The object you pin an emoji to doesn't have to start in the video. If you pause and attach an emoji to an object that appears half-way through the video, the emoji won't appear until the object appears.

TL;DR in English: Try pinning stickers to different things. Use stickers to censor objects in your video. Pin a sticker to your pet. Add multiple emoji. Pin emoji to objects that enter the frame later.

If you’ve stopped seeing your therapist or you’ve never seen one, now is a good time to get into therapy. Tell your therapist that you struggle with OCD and relapsed recently. Work toward preventing future relapses by learning skills to manage and cope with OCD symptoms. Work with the therapist to identify specific triggers so that you can avoid additional problems in the future.  The best type of therapy is Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, which is also known as “Talk Therapy”.  Other types of therapy to help out with your relapse of OCD include Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), which is a type of CBT.   ERP involves progressive exposure of the object or situation that is leading to the relapse, and how to best cope with your anxiety about the obsession. It’s okay to ask friends and family for help and support. Share your experience with someone who cares about you and is willing to listen and support you. Even when you would rather isolate yourself, make an effort to make plans with friends, spend time with family, and maintain an active social life. By isolating yourself, you increase your risk of experiencing anxiety and OCD. Surround yourself with people who care about you. A support group is a great place to meet other people who struggle with anxiety and OCD symptoms. You can share your experiences, give and receive advice, share recommendations, gain a sense of community, and make new friends. Consider joining a self-help group, support group, or group therapy for individuals struggling with anxiety and OCD.  If you do not have a group near you in your community, join an online support group. For more information, check out How to Join an Anxiety Disorder Support Group. You may relapse with OCD if you feel better and decide to stop taking your medications. You feel like you are “cured” or that your OCD was just a “phase.” Unfortunately, OCD is a chronic condition that must be treated and prevented. It is possible to manage OCD effectively, yet there is no “cure” for OCD.   OCD is often treated with...

TL;DR in English: Talk with a therapist. Reach out for social support. Join a support group. Continue with treatment.

Maybe you aren't in the mood to straighten up your house, but you want to do something a little more fun. Start by looking around your home and seeing what decorations you could add to the walls. You can also be inspired by going online and searching for do-it-yourself craft projects. Try to find a project that uses things you have lying around the house so you won't have to travel to the store and spend money.  Learn to finger knit. Sew a blanket, a dress, or make some new pillows for your bed or couch. Make photo coasters, Scrabble coasters, or map coasters for your home. Design and create your own jewelry. Create some homemade candles to freshen up your home. Design and make cute magnets for your fridge. Craft a wreath for your front door. Start on your Halloween costume. Make some Christmas ornaments or decorations for the upcoming holiday season. Experiment with baking or cooking by finding a new recipe online, or one that you've been wanting to try from your favorite cookbook, and spend part of the day making the food. If you are by yourself and the recipe makes a lot, consider halving it, or bringing the leftovers to your neighbors.  Bake homemade chocolate chip, sugar, or peanut butter cookies. Make a cake and decorate it beautifully. Prepare freezer meals for the week. Make candies like caramel, toffee, or rock candy. When you have a lot of time on your hands it's a great time to pick up the writing project you have been wanting to start. Maybe you could start a blog about your favorite topic, or you could start a journal letting it be an outlet for emotions or thoughts that you've been feeling. You could also take this time to write a short story or begin a novel. Find an image online that you would like to replicate on a canvas or paint a still life. If you aren't an expert painter it could be good to start with something simple and work your way up to something more advanced. You can also watch online painting tutorials that instruct people how to paint certain scenes. You can also try out...

TL;DR in English: Start a craft project. Cook a new recipe. Start a blog, journal, or write a story. Pick up painting. Start or add to a scrapbook. Try out gardening.

The cap is a small covering located over the mouthpiece of the inhaler to prevent foreign objects from getting in the inhaler. Pull the cap to remove it and set it in a safe place.  An uncapped inhaler can pick up germs and debris, which you will then pump into your lungs. Make sure that you don't lose your cap while you're using your inhaler. The inhaler should be clean, especially the mouthpiece. Remove the cap and check the inside and outside of the mouthpiece. Check the expiration date to make sure that it can still be used. Wipe any grime or debris off the inhaler with a dry tissue or cotton swab. If the mouthpiece is dirty, wipe it down with rubbing alcohol, and let it dry. Hold the inhaler in your hand with your index finger on top of the canister. The mouthpiece should be on the bottom with the top of the canister pointing up. Quickly move your inhaler up and down by pumping your forearm or wrist. If you haven't used it in a while, make sure that you prime it by pumping it until it sprays at full force. Don't worry about wasting medicine because an unprimed inhaler will not provide you a full dose, putting your breathing at risk. Instructions for priming vary, so know how many pumps it takes to prime yours. Take off the cap and look inside to make sure that there is no grime or debris inside the spacer. If there is, then try blowing it out. If you can't clear out the debris, you may need to wash your spacer.  Don't wipe your spacer with a cloth because it will create static cling that attracts your medicine.  Clean your spacer by dismantling and washing it in mild dish detergent. Allow it to air dry before putting it back together. Breathe in through your mouth. Open your lungs to their maximum capacity, then hold the breath for just a second.

When starting the game, you will be able to choose a few upgrades for your virus. What you choose here will have a huge impact on how the game plays out, so choose wisely. There are a few suggested upgrades that you should pick to make this game easier:  DNA Gene - ATP Boost. This will give you extra DNA points at the beginning. Travel Gene - Aquacyte. Basically required to infect difficult islands like Greenland, Iceland, and New Zealand. Evolution Gene - Patho-Stasis. This will make your upgrades much cheaper. Mutation Gene - Genetic Mimic. This slows the cure progression, offsetting the negative effects of the Patho-Stasis upgrade. Environment Gene - Extremophile. This boosts the infection rate in every environmental condition. Before choosing a starting country, use your ATP Boost bonus to purchase a few starting upgrades. These upgrades will increase ineffectiveness while keeping lethal mutations from showing up too early.  Coughing Gene Compression 1 and 2 Your starting country is very important, as this will determine how quickly the virus starts spreading. Most guides recommend starting in India due to the large population and proximity to China, though others suggest Saudi Arabia. Work will begin on the cure shortly after the game begins.

If you think your dog has any sort of mange, you should consult your veterinarian. Only a trained, experienced vet can run the proper diagnostic tests to determine the type and severity of the mange. Depending on the diagnosis, the vet will then prescribe the proper medication to treat the mange. Because mange is almost always easiest to treat before it becomes severe, seeing your vet as quickly as possible is important to ensure your pet is back to normal as soon as possible.  Cases of sarcoptic mange require a veterinarian more urgently than demodectic mange. Because the severe itching from sarcoptic mange can make a dog miserable (and, more importantly, quickly lead to health problems), early diagnosis and treatment is essential. The exception to this general rule is for very minor cases of localized demodectic mange. Because these usually clear up on their own, a veterinarian is not always necessary, though you may want to consult with one for peace of mind anyway, and to rule out other conditions. In cases of mange (especially sarcoptic mange, which is contagious), any objects that have recently come into contact with the dog's hair or skin should immediately be washed or replaced. This includes its bedding, collar, leash, harness, doghouse, and any brushes or cleaning products. The need for cleaning is especially urgent if you have other pets who don't have mange yet. For fabric objects, launder with bleach or borax and dry at the highest possible setting. For hard objects and surfaces, use a hospital-grade disinfectant. Repeat daily as needed until the mange subsides. As noted above, dogs who get bad cases of demodectic mange sometimes have a weakness in their immune system that they've inherited from their parents. Because of this, owners of dogs that have had long, severe, or difficult-to-treat cases of demodectic mange are usually encouraged not to breed their dogs. For dogs that have had minor, localized cases of demodectic mange, breeding is sometimes considered acceptable, especially if the mange...

TL;DR in English: Seek veterinary care. Clean or replace the dog's bedding, collar, and so on. Don't breed dogs with demodectic mange. Keep other animals away from a dog with sarcoptic mange. Understand the risk factors for catching sarcoptic mange.

Pick an appropriate time to talk. Start by expressing appreciation for all your parents do for you. Present your research to your parents. Offer to pay for as much as you can. Make a deal to get better grades or do more chores. Remain calm during the conversation. Give your parents a few days to think before answering. Be respectful if your parents say no.

Technical analysis is an attempt to understand market psychology or, in other words, what investors as a whole feel about a company as reflected in the stock price. Technical analysts are normally short-term holders, concerned about the timing of their buys and sells.If you can detect a pattern, you might be able to predict when stock prices will fall and drop. This can inform you about when to purchase or sell certain stocks. Technical analysis makes use of moving averages to track security prices. Moving averages measure the average price of the security over a set of period of time. This helps traders more easily identify trends. Patterns identified in a technical analysis include identifiable price boundaries in the market price of a stock. The high boundary, which the stock rarely surpasses, is known as the "resistance." The low boundary, which the stock rarely dips below, is called "support." Identifying these levels can let a trader know when to buy (at resistance) and when to sell (at support).  Some specific patterns are also detectable in stock charts. The most common one is known as "head and shoulders." This is a peak price then drop, followed by a taller peak then drop, and finally followed by a peak similar in height to the first. This pattern signals that an upwards price trend will end. There are also inverse head and shoulders patterns, which signify the end to a downward price trend. An investor seeks to find a company with a competitive advantage in the market place that will provide sales and earning growth over a long period. A trader seeks to find companies with an identifiable price trend that can be exploited in the short-term. Traders typically use technical analysis to identify these price trends. In contrast, investors typically use another type of analysis, fundamental analysis, because of its focus on the long term. Orders are what traders use to specify the trades that they would like their brokers to make for them. There are numerous different types of orders that a trader can...

To prepare the screen for darning, unravel a few strands from the perimeter of the tear to use as your thread. As you do so, take care to not make the holes and tears any larger than they already are. One or two strands is more than enough. For larger holes or tears, you may not be able to darn it. In this case, you may need to patch the hole. Match the two ends of the screen evenly for a neat and secure seam. There should be little-to-no space gap in the middle. If you cannot line up the two ends without leaving a noticeable hole in the middle, you may need to patch the screen instead of darning it. the strands through the screen with a sewing needle. Once the torn edges are lined up, use a needle to weave the thread through the screen strands. If you don't have strands of screen material available or do not want to risk making the hole bigger, use a heavy-duty, polyester thread. Make the stitches as small and identical as possible.  Choose a needle with a large eye that can accommodate the screen strand. If you have sewn the hole or tear and it is still noticeable, cover it with a patch. A securing stitch will prevent the darn from coming undone. Make a small stitch at the end of the hole or tear, then stitch over it again. At the end of the stitch, make a small knot and pull it tightly to finish the securing stitch.

TL;DR in English: Unravel the strands surrounding the hole or tear. Line up the screen seams neatly. Weave Finish darning the screen with a securing stitch.

Decide whether you want the patch to go on the outside of your upper arm, butt cheek, back, or belly. Make sure wherever you choose to put it is not very hairy and won't get rubbed too much by your clothes.  Don't put the patch on your breasts or anywhere where you have a rash or irritated skin. To prevent the adhesive from irritating your skin over time, plan to change the location every time you put on a new patch. Depending on what you’re wearing, it may be visible if you put it on the outside of your upper arm. Put it on your butt cheek or back if you don’t want it to show. Use soap and water to wash your skin where you want to place the patch. Dry your skin completely with a towel so there's no moisture getting between your skin and the sticky adhesive.  Don't use any lotion, oil, powder, or other skincare products on your skin—wait until after the patch is on to moisturize (and skip the area where the patch is). It's okay to put the patch over skin that's slightly hairy—natural peach fuzz is fine. If there’s thick, coarse hair in the area, shave it before you wash your skin and apply the patch. Use your fingers to carefully tear open the individual package. Slide the patch out and check to make sure it's in good shape. If the patch is torn, punctured, or if the two clear layers are missing on the adhesive side, throw it out and open another package. Use your finger to peel away one of the plastic layers on the adhesive side of the patch. Throw away the plastic layer. Once you open the patch you need to use it immediately so the sticky material doesn't get dirty. Hold the patch over where you want to put it and stick it on. At this point, only half the sticky part should be exposed so the patch is half stuck to your skin. Then, use your fingers to peel off the remaining adhesive protector on the other side of the patch. Be careful not to touch the sticky part with your fingers. Once the patch is on, use your palm or fingers to press down so it's securely on your skin. Hold it there for 10 seconds. If you...

TL;DR in English: Choose a clean, dry area on your body to put the patch. Clean and dry the skin where you plan to put the patch. Remove the patch from the packaging. Peel away 1 side of the clear protective plastic from the back of the patch. Place the exposed sticky side on your skin and peel away the other plastic layer. Press the patch onto your skin for 10 seconds. Check your patch every day to make sure it's stuck on well.

Make sure your parents have time to talk. If they’re frazzled and running late to work, hold off until things are calmer. Catch your parents when they’re in a good mood, because they’ll be more likely to listen to what you have to say. Don’t act like you deserve a cat. It’ll just make your parents shut down. Instead, approach the situation with an attitude of gratitude. Your parents will be more open to your argument. You might tell your parents, “I want to start by saying that I’m super thankful to have parents who support me and work hard to give me some amazing things.” If you made a presentation, now’s the time to whip it out. Otherwise, go through the key points you planned out earlier. Remember to talk about your plan for care, why you want a cat, and how you plan to address their concerns. You may not be able to pay for everything, but offering to contribute to the cost of a cat shows you’re serious about getting one.  Imagine you only have $50, but a cat costs $100. You could say, “Mom, I really want a cat, but the ones at the shelter cost about $100. If I pay for $50, could you cover the other half?” Or, you could offer to pay for the initial cost of the cat and ask your parents to help you out with the annual expenses. Maybe if you get straight A’s next quarter, your parents will let you get a cat. Or, offer to do extra chores from now on. Whatever you and your parents agree to, stick with it. It’ll show you’re ready for the responsibility of being a cat owner. You could say, “If I get an A in math next quarter, which will take a lot of work because it’s one of my hardest subjects, will you let me get a cat? I want to show you how committed I am.” If you lose your temper, your chances of convincing your parents will be slim. Try to stay calm and avoid getting defensive, even if your parents give you a firm no. If you feel yourself getting riled up, take a few deep, slow breaths. If you can’t calm down, ask your parents if you can finish the conversation later. If you pressure your parents for a...

Prepare to be prescribed prostaglandin, a natural hormone. Expect to be prescribed oxytocin through an IV at the hospital.

The first step to preparing an effective apology is to realize what you did wrong. Don’t make up excuses for why you did what you did or blame others. Be brutally honest with yourself, and determine what offense you committed that contributed to the conflict. Consider how what you did or didn’t do effected the other person and his or her life. You can now comprehend the Taurus personality a little better, so take a moment to think of how he or she feels both during and after the offense. Put yourself in the other person’s shoes, and use the Taurus perspective to imagine these emotions very clearly—anger, hurt or disappointment. Recognize that you wish you hadn’t done the action or said the words you did but don’t beat yourself up about it. Everyone makes mistakes, but your apology will only be effective after you forgive yourself. This is because guilt is very distracting, and an apology is not about you but the person you wronged. Forgiving yourself, apologizing to the person you hurt and trying not to make the same mistake again are the best things you can do for a guilty conscience. The purpose of guilt is to discourage you from going against your values, moral codes or beliefs. Know that holding onto guilt serves no positive function. Every conflict has 2 sides and at least 2 people contributing to the problem. If the conflict occurred with a Taurus, then chances are you were also hurt in some way. Your apology will not be sincere if you have not gotten over the harm he or she caused you. Even if you don’t say anything about it, you will not be able to forget the things that hurt you, and resentment may slip through in other ways.   Think of at least one reason that the other person reacted the way he or she did. Consider the earlier exercise when you put yourself in the other person’s shoes.  It is easier to forgive someone when you see their point of view and understand motivations, emotions and personality traits. This type of compassion may encourage others to forgive you more easily as well. ...

TL;DR in English: Admit what you did wrong to yourself. Understand how the other person feels. Forgive yourself. Forgive the Taurus. Plan your apology. Think of a solution.

Sleek black heels will add sex appeal and complete the high-fashion look of your leather lace-ups and black top. Pointed-toe black heels with ankle straps can look sharp with leather pants. High-heeled black booties with a chunky silhouette also work well and can add a rock-and-roll edge to your chic outfit. The sportiness of lace-up leggings goes perfectly with a pair of designer sneakers. High-top and low-top trainers both look great, so choose according to your personal style. You can branch out with color, but plain white sneakers can add a nice contrast while complimenting the overall minimal vibe of the outfit. Keep the rest of your outfit black and simple, then add a glamorous coat on top. You can tone down a racy outfit by wearing a statement coat over it without losing the overall high-fashion vibe. Complete the look with a pair of black cat-eye sunglasses. Go for high drama by wearing a duster-length black coat or one that is trimmed in fur. Your lace-up pants should be the most eye-catching element of your outfit. Choose minimal accessories in dark neutral colors. For example, carry a simple black leather clutch and wear a pair of basic black sunglasses. Wear a pair of nude ballet flats for the ultimate casual minimalism. Avoid wearing a lot of jewelry with this look, which can end up looking overwhelming.

TL;DR in English: Play up the raciness of leather lace-ups by wearing black heels. Wear trendy sneakers or trainers with lace-up leggings. Add a touch of glam with a long black statement coat and sunglasses. Keep your accessories simple and sleek.

Use a rake, tiller, or pitchfork to dig 6–8 inches (15–20 cm) under the soil. Turn the soil over until you’ve loosened all the soil in your flower bed. You may also want to incorporate compost in the soil to promote flower growth. The information on the seed packet will explain if the seeds have any special germination needs. Soft-shelled seeds should be pressed lightly into the soil, while hard-shelled seeds should be completely covered with soil. Read the instructions to see which method you should use. This is useful when planting a wide variety of seeds or plants. The visual reminder will also let you know whether the flowers are growing or if your seeds failed to germinate.  Not all seeds will become flowers. Labeling will also prevent you from mistaking your seedlings for weeds. Lightly mist your flowerbed with water so that the soil is moist. The soil should always be moist while the seeds are germinating. To see whether the soil is actually moist, press your finger down into your flowerbed. If the soil feels dry under the surface, you know you need to water your seeds. The flowers should germinate within 3 weeks to a month. If you don’t notice that they are starting to grow, you may have to lay down more seeds. If it rains, you shouldn't have to water your flowers. However, it's important the soil under the flowers stays moist. If you have a period of time with no rain, water them so that the top 6–8 inches (15–20 cm) remains moist. Pruning the flowers after they have bloomed will encourage new growth. Use a set of hand pruners and clip away old or damaged flower petals or leaves. An organic fertilizer and promote the health of your flowers and will brighten their color. Look for a fertilizer designed for your specific type of flower, and sprinkle it on the surrounding soil. Read the instructions before you use the fertilizer so that you don't over fertilize them, which could kill them. A balanced 5-10-10 fertilizer can be used on the widest variety of flowers.

TL;DR in English: Till the soil before planting the seeds. Sprinkle or bury the seeds, per the instructions. Mark the planting area so you know where you planted the seeds. Mist the seedbed to keep the soil moist. Wait for your flower(s) to germinate. Water your flowers. Prune dying flowers and leaves. Use fertilizer if desired.

If you are committed to a home birth, you should still have a doctor or midwife present. Most doctors will not rush to induce labor unless there are extenuating circumstances, including when:  Your water breaks, but there are no contractions. You are two weeks past your due date. You have a uterine infection You have gestational diabetes, high blood pressure, or not enough amniotic fluid. There is a problem with the placenta or baby's positioning/growth. With gloved fingers, the doctor will reach into the cervix and rub the membrane of the amniotic sac until it separates from the uterine wall. Naturally-released hormones then usually kick-start labor. Known medically as an "amniotomy," the doctor uses a thin hook to break the amniotic sac. This almost always brings on labor within a few hours. While it is short, this may be painful and uncomfortable. It may be applied directly to the vagina or taken orally. This usually happens in a hospital, and it thins out the cervix to prepare it for labor. This often leads to strong cramping and some pain. This is generally for slowed or stalling labor. In emergencies, like those outlined above, it can also help induce labor. Labor induced with oxytocin often leads to more frequent contractions.

Before you get a ferret, you will need to spend a great deal of time setting up. You will have to run many errands gathering supplies, and then take an afternoon to assemble them in your home. In the event you move, you will have to repeat the process. Be honest with yourself about whether you have time for ferret proofing.  You will have to fill in any holes or gaps in furniture or walls, ferrets love to crawl and hide in such areas. You will also have to hide heavier objects, like stereos and speakers, in cupboards. Ferrets love to climb, and can knock such objects over and get hurt.  Staircases need to be blocked off, and household furniture made of products like wood will need protection. Ferrets will chew such objects. Cleaning and upkeep of your home will be more timely when you have a ferret. Ferrets will chew almost anything, and can get hurt if they chew or swallow the wrong object. Therefore, you will have to keep your home very clean if you're housing a ferret. Ferrets are social animals. They will not be happy if they don't have time to play with a human companion. A ferret is, by no means, a hands off pet, so make sure you can dedicate adequate time to playing with your ferret.  Ferrets do sleep a lot. They tend to be sleeping for about 18 hours a day. However, during times when they are awake, they are very active and need a lot of stimulation. Do not leave a ferret in a shelter or cage for the entire day. You will need to spend several hours a day playing with your ferret to keep it healthy and happy. Litter training is important for a ferret, as you don't want a ferret having accidents around the home. Also, ferrets must be taught proper behavior. You will need to dedicate time to training your ferret not to bite and scratch. Ferrets are intelligent and highly trainable. However, like any animal, training takes time and persistence. You will have to train your ferret over the course of several weeks, and always punish negative behaviors like biting. This can be time consuming, so you should...

TL;DR in English: Think about the time commitment of ferret-proofing your home. See if you have enough time to play with a ferret. Remember that ferrets require training. Keep cleaning time in mind. Remember a ferret's lifespan.

Raise your arms straight above your head. Fully extend your dominant leg straight out in front of you, keeping the other leg straight beneath you.. Stand tall and engage your core muscles. If you are starting with a spotter, they should put one hand on your back, and one hand under the thigh of your kicking leg. Point your palms upwards and push your hips forward. Push your arms and head backwards, making sure that you move them together. Bend your back slowly and carefully, keeping your dominant leg in position.  Keep your abdominal muscles tight so that you can keep control of your core as you bend backwards. Make sure to balance your weight firmly on the one leg that is on the ground.

Shoes made from leather and suede are more pliable and will mold to the shape of your foot. Because these materials are more flexible, you will reduce your chances of chafing. While synthetic shoes are more affordable, investing in quality shoes will pay off.  Leather and suede shoes will also last longer than shoes made from synthetic materials. Look on the inside of the heel to determine what the shoe is made of. Shoes that say "man-made upper" or "man-made material" are made from synthetic materials. "Shoes that say "leather upper" or "suede upper" are best. When you wear heels, more pressure is placed on the ball of your foot. Adequate cushioning in this area will make your heels feel much better. Check this area of the shoe before you buy them.  If the shoe does not have very much built in cushioning, purchase insoles to wear in your shoes. Insoles can be full size, three quarter size, half size, or only ball-of- the-foot cushions.  If you do wear insoles, be sure you still have enough room for your toes. Styles with a slight platform under the toe area tend to be more comfortable as they minimize the angle and pressure on the ball of the foot. Platforms, even thin ones, also maintain stability by keeping the soles flat.  If you are wearing a higher heel, a platform can offset some the effects of wearing a high heel. Platforms can be visible or hidden. If you like the comfort but not the look of a platform, go for a shoe that has a hidden platform. The more stable and secure your shoe feels, the more comfortable you will feel. In addition to the height of your heel and toe space, there are other design features that make heels more comfortable. Check your heels for the following:  Wear a chunkier heel. The wider the heel, the more stability you will have. Shoes that have wooden or hard plastic soles are more rigid and will be more difficult to walk in. Look for shoes with leather and rubber soles. Slingbacks, heels with ankle straps, peep toes, and boots are easier to walk in than mules or super strappy...

TL;DR in English: Buy leather or suede shoes. Check the cushioning. Consider a platform style heel. Choose styles that improve stability. Alternate your shoe choices. Examine the arch of the shoe.

If your zipper is shoddily constructed, or if it’s not sewn in well, you may damage it by using too much pressure with the boot stretcher. Make sure you are using a stretcher designed for the calf of a boot and not one for the toes or instep. A calf stretcher will look tall and thin. You don’t have to use a stretching spray, but it will help soften the fabric and you will achieve better results. Depending on the style of boot stretcher, you may have a lever or there may be a small wheel in the center. Use these to adjust the stretcher until it fits snugly in the calf of the boot. For best results, you want to leave the stretcher in for as long as possible. If you sprayed your boots with stretching spray, you’ll want to leave the stretcher in until the spray dries.

TL;DR in English:


Don't be afraid to ask for help.  Don't be afraid to ask for help.  Don't be afraid to ask for help.  Don't be afraid to ask for help.  Don't be afraid to ask for help.  Don't be afraid to ask for help.  Don't be afraid

Select a contour color and/or matte bronzer that is one or two shades deeper than your skin tone. For the highlighter, choose a color that is slightly lighter than your natural complexion.  Cream and powder are both acceptable choices for contouring your face. Cream provides a glossier texture on your face, while powder provides a matte look. A makeup blending brush is recommended for applying the makeup. Effective brushing ensures proper blending and avoids streaky makeup. Alter your hairstyle to better accentuate your cheeks, or to give your face an overall thinner appearance. Pulling your hair back into a ponytail, parting your hair on the side instead of the middle and adding volume to the crown of your head all help your face appear thinner.

TL;DR in English: Purchase materials. Change your hairstyle (Optional).

You cannot have success if you do not know what it means for you. Everyone views success differently.  True success comes from achieving what will make you happiest in life. Once you have identified this, you can set goals that are meaningful and important to you.  Try writing down your definition of success. Is it earning a certain income, living in a certain area, or supporting a happy family? Would success allow you to travel, save for retirement, or maintain a healthy social life? If you’re struggling, consider what makes you happiest in life. Is it spending time with your family, traveling, pursuing a hobby, or something else? What would you do if money was not a concern? Next, identify what you need in life to achieve that happiness. Identify the things you love to do, the things that give you satisfaction. Once you identify what you love to do, use this information to find the purpose of your life or the objective of your life.  Finding what you love to do will give you motivation along the way. It's much, much easier to persistently chip away at your goal if your goal is something you enjoy doing. Consider where you want to be in 5, 10, and 20 years. What can you do that will help you achieve that dream? If you’re confused about what your goal or purpose might be, try meeting with a career coach or visiting a good psychologist. Your goals should be quantifiable. For example, instead of setting a goal to be better at your job, create benchmarks such as "My goal is to increase my productivity by 30% and only be late for work five times per year, at the most." Focus on streamlining your idea and establish what you need to do to reach that goal. If you have the vision to attack your goal piece by piece, it's easier and less daunting to execute.  For example, does the goal of starting a technology company seem impossibly unattainable? Break it down into smaller goals. Smaller goals could include writing a business plan, finding investors, getting a loan, or coming up with product ideas. Make sure that your...

TL;DR in English: Define what success means to you. Identify your ultimate purpose or goal. Break your goal into small steps. Set a timeline for when you want to achieve your objective. Identify what resources you need to achieve your objectives.

Most people lose weight very quickly in the first several weeks of a new regimen. While some of this weight is actual body mass, a lot of it is excess water. Once your body has rid itself of this excess water, it is normal for the rate of weight loss to slow down significantly.  Track your progress and ask yourself: has my weight loss really stopped, or just slowed? Experts agree that an ideal rate for safe, lasting weight loss is one to two pounds per week, so perhaps your plateau isn't a plateau after all! Maybe you were very diligent about counting calories at the beginning, or maybe you were able to lose weight initially without monitoring your food intake that closely. In either case, you may be consuming more calories that you realize, and carefully tracking your intake using a food diary or one of the many free calorie counter websites and apps can help you identify exactly how much you are eating and when.  Once you have a good handle on what you are consuming, you can start to look for problem areas and make adjustments If you have been very active, it's also possible you haven't  been eating enough calories. If you are working out, your body will require more food. If you restrict yourself thinking that you will lose weight faster, you will actually cause your body to hold on to the weight you currently hold. As your body gets smaller, it will burn fewer calories and you will need to eat less and less to maintain the calorie deficit that leads to weight loss. If you have not done so lately, enter your weight and activity level into a calorie counter to get an up-to-date number for the number of calories you need.  Most experts recommend a calorie deficit of 500 calories a day to achieve gradual, lasting weight loss.  If the calculator tells you that you require 2200 calories per day, you should try to consume around 1700 calories per day to lose a pound per week. Have you been exercising consistently? Do you do the same kind of workout every day? Are you doing any kind of resistance training?...

TL;DR in English: Understand how weight loss usually progresses. Keep track of your caloric intake. Reevaluate your caloric needs. Think about your exercise routine. Look at other factors besides the scale. See your doctor for a check-up.

Don't be sneaky or manipulative, just casually drop hints here or there.  Your mom may notice, or she may just start to get an idea of what age you and your peers are reaching.  A subtle hint might be something like, “My friend [insert name] has started shaving her legs.” Don't feel too awkward.  It shouldn't be a big deal. Casually mention what is going on with yourself or other girls at your school. Your mom may be picking up on your hints, but choosing not to respond.  Getting her to respond is the best way to start a conversation.  Use questions that require an answer.  For example, “Some of my friends have started shaving their legs.  When did you start shaving your legs, mom?”   Asking direct questions like, “When do you think it is a good age to start shaving your legs?” will give you a sense of what your mother thinks. Just make sure to ease into it. If you think that your mother will say yes, and if she hasn't acted strangely to your other hints, try hinting more directly.  The most direct way is to ask for razors when you are at the store. You can say, “I think that it's time for me to start shaving my legs. I have the most hair on my legs out of any of the girls in my grade/class.”

TL;DR in English:


Check the zoning restrictions in your area for the maximum structure height. Opt for a turbine if the average wind speed is 14 mph (23 km/h) or more. Calculate the minimum diameter for the turbine blades to power your home. Place the turbine on a tower that’s 30 feet (9.1 m) taller than other structures. Hire an electrician to connect the turbine to your home’s power system.

Don’t use a bronzer that is more than one skin tone darker than your own. Check carefully when buying it at the store and test out a few on your face to see which color will work best for you. Avoid bronzers with orange tints -- these typically do not look good on pale skin. Go for bronzers that lean toward brown. Different products work well for oily, combination, and dry skins. Using testers, check at the store which products feel and spread best on your skin. Bronzers are supposed to add a healthy-looking shine to your skin, and can be very useful for making pale skin appear slightly darker. (They are not designed to make your skin look bronze, despite their name.) After getting some on the brush, tap off any excess before applying. Focus on your temples and cheekbones. Use only a little on your nose and chin, and blend a little on your neck.

TL;DR in English: Choose your bronzer or blush color. Select a bronzer that works for your skin type. Apply bronzer with a big brush.

When he is fully dried off, use your double-sided stainless steel comb to comb through his coat and remove any tangles. Once his coat is all smoothed out, you can use your spray conditioner to put a nice finishing touch on his coat. Keeping your puppy's ears clean is just as important as keeping the rest of him clean. Following the instructions on the ear cleaner bottle, pour the recommended amount of ear cleaner into your puppy's ears, one at a time, and gently massage his ears. Use a clean cotton ball to clear out any obvious debris. If you are comfortable doing so, use a small pair of tweezers to remove hair from your puppy's ear canal. If you are unsure of how to do this, your veterinarian or local pet groomer can do this for you. . Using your nail clippers, trim your puppy's nails down to just above the quick. The quick is the blood vessel that runs halfway through your puppy's nail. It is easy to identify if your puppy has light-colored or transparent nails.  The quick has many nerve endings. If you trim past the quick, not only will the nail start to bleed slightly, but your puppy will experience some pain. If your puppy has light-colored or transparent nails, you may be able to see the quick from the side of your puppy's nail. If this is the case, trim the nail until you see that you are just above the quick. If your puppy has dark-colored nails, trim a very small amount at a time and look at the cut edge of the nail. Stop trimming when you begin to see a gray or pink oval in the cut edge of the nail—this oval is the quick.  If you trim the past the quick and the nail starts to bleed, dab a small amount of styptic powder onto the nail to stop the bleeding. The bleeding will stop immediately after you apply the styptic powder. If you are not comfortable with trimming your puppy's nails, your veterinarian or local pet groomer can perform this task.

TL;DR in English: Comb your puppy's coat. Clean your puppy's ears. Trim your puppy's nails

When you decide to sue someone for diminishing your religious freedoms, the first important decision you will have to make is whether you will file your lawsuit in state or federal court. Depending on the circumstances, you may be able to choose or you may be required to file in one or the other. State courts are usually courts of general jurisdiction and can hear any case brought in front of them unless they are specifically barred from doing so. On the other hand, if you want to file your lawsuit in federal court you will have to meet one of two jurisdictional tests.  First, you can file in federal court if you are suing under a federal law, which includes the U.S. Constitution (i.e., federal question jurisdiction). For example, if you are suing an employer for employment discrimination, you might decide to sue under the federal law prohibiting those actions. Second, you can file in federal court if you have diversity of citizenship. Here, you and the defendant must be citizens of different states and the amount in controversy must exceed $75,000.  If you can choose between the two, you should most likely choose to file in federal court. If you are suing based on a constitutional claim, or a federal law claim, the federal courts are much better equipped to handle your case. A lawsuit is started when a complaint is filed with the court. A complaint is a legal document that tells the judge and the defendant why you are suing someone, how the defendant violated the law, how you were injured, and what you want the court to do about it. Your complaint will include at least the following:  The case caption, which includes the court where you are filing your complaint and the parties to the suit. The jurisdictional basis, which tells the court why they can hear the case. The nature of your suit and the cause of action (i.e., what law you are filing under and how you have been harmed). Whether you want a jury. Your request for relief, which is the dollar amount you are asking the defendant for. The summons is a...

Since wind systems are tall, you may not be able to install the system in a residential area depending on your zoning requirements. Check with local building inspectors or your city’s homeowner’s association to see if you’re eligible for building a turbine. If zoning isn’t an issue, then you can build a turbine on your property. Many zoning ordinances have a height limit of about 35 feet (11 m), and many wind systems need to be 30 feet (9.1 m) higher than the tallest structure within 500 feet (150 m). Look online for wind speed maps or airport wind speed data to see what the average wind speed is in your area. If the average wind speeds are around 14 miles per hour (23 km/h), then a turbine might be an efficient way to generate electricity to power your home. If the wind speed is slower, then you may not get the turbine’s full effectiveness.  Wind speeds increase the higher above ground you are. Many airports measure their wind speed from about 30 feet (9.1 m) above ground, which is similar to the height of a residential turbine. Hire a professional who installs wind turbines to check the efficiency and wind speed of your property for you if you have trouble determining it yourself. Check with your electric company to find out how many kilowatt-hours your home used in the past year. Use the formula AEO = (0.01328)D2V3, where AEO is your annual energy output in kilowatt-hours per year, D is the diameter of the rotor in feet, and V is the annual average wind speed in miles per hour. Solve the formula for D and buy a turbine system with the correct size rotors.  For example, if you use 11,000 kilowatt-hours of electricity per year and the average annual wind speed is 20 miles per hour, your formula would be 11,000 = (0.01328)D2(15)3. If you solve for D, the diameter you need for your system is about 10 feet (3.0 m). Once you know what size turbine you need, purchase one from a reputable supplier. This company may also be able to supply you with other crucial parts (like the tower) and/or complete the...

Choose your method wisely. Be prepared for the time and expense. Build your hair’s health before you go gray. Purchase a 10 to 20-volume cream developer. Buy a hair toner to help eliminate brassiness after bleaching. Buy a gray hair dye and the other necessary tools for home use.

To do your best, you’ll want to concentrate on the moment. But, you can also find small ways to take mental breaks as well. While you are running, pay attention to the environment around you. Try to focus on the spectators on the sidelines of your marathon. Or, perhaps keep your focus on the trees or greenery. This will take your mind off your discomfort. If you are not in pain due to an acute injury, then you can generally compartmentalize the negative sensations connected with pain, thus minimizing its power over you. Don’t give pain more power than it should have. If you experience discomfort, start to think about all of the ways that pain can be good.  For example, muscles are often sore or in pain before they regenerate even stronger. Just be aware of your body and know how to differentiate “true” pain, such as shin splits, from “false” pain, such as muscle soreness. If you know that you are suffering from an injury, such as shin splits, then it is a good idea to modify your training regimen. You may need to run for shorter periods of time or distances. Try to develop a plan to build back up to your desired goals, but realize that you will need to be realistic about what your body can, and can’t, do when injured. There are some moments when pain and discomfort must be taken seriously. If you feel a sharp pain in your shin or hips, it is best to slow or stop running. If you start to experience tightness in your chest or severe stomach pains, stop and seek out help as well. When in doubt, trust your instincts and err on the side of caution. If you suspect that you are injured or if you are experiencing noticeable pain when running, it may be a good idea to talk with your physician. Explain your running routine and ask them for advice regarding potential modifications. View your visit as an opportunity to learn more about your body in order to maximize its potential.

TL;DR in English: Find a focal point outside of yourself. Disconnect pain from injury. Be careful when injured. Respond quickly to serious physical warning signs. Consult with a doctor.

Any kind of cheese will work, but the smellier, the better. Catfish are attracted to strong, intense smells. Use a large spoon to stir the chicken liver into the cheese. You can use any flavor of wet dog food. Once the dog food and garlic powder are in the pot, stir the mixture thoroughly. Pour the bait from the pot into a blender and blend it thoroughly. Blending the mixture will make it easier to turn into a dough later on. Stop adding flour once the mixture develops a dough-like consistency. Don’t add too much flour or you could make the bait too thick. Use your hands to form the balls so they’re small enough to fit on a fishing hook. They should be about the size of a golf ball. Place the cheesy dough balls in a sealable plastic bag or container and stick them in the fridge or freezer. When you’re ready to use your bait, all you need to do is attach one of the dough balls to a fishing hook and you’re ready to go! Your bait can stay in storage for as long as you want, but the smell may become overwhelming after a while. If the bait becomes dry or crumbly, you'll need to throw it away and make a new batch.

TL;DR in English: Melt 1 pound (0.45 kg) of cheese in a large pot. Chop up 8 ounces (230 g) of chicken liver and add it to the melted cheese. Add a can of wet dog food and 1 tablespoon (15 mL) of garlic powder. Blend all the ingredients together. Pour the mixture into a bowl and gradually add flour to thicken it. Separate the dough into small balls. Store your bait in the fridge or freezer until you’re ready to use it.

Certain liquids can be cooked down to then be combined with salt like wet condiments. Wines and heavy liquors are especially good for this purpose due to their sugar content and high smoke point. Grab a bottle of your favorite pinot noir or barrel-aged whiskey and get cooking.  Browse a few recipes to see which liquids can be used to make reductions and which can’t. Try a dash of maple-bourbon salt on a sirloin steak or homemade caramels. Pour 2-3 cups of your chosen liquid into a saucepan. Turn on the stove top to a medium-high temperature and heat the liquid until it just begins to bubble. From there, reduce the heat and let it continue simmering. The liquid will most likely need to simmer for between 15-20 minutes, but exact times may vary. Keep an eye on it as it cooks down. The process of boiling and simmering the liquid will cook the moisture out of it, causing it to thicken into a condensed syrup. Stir the reduction continuously to keep air moving through it and prevent it from burning or sticking to the saucepan. When it’s thick enough to coat the outside of your spoon or ladle, it’s ready to be added to the salt.  You should be left with 1–2 tablespoons (14.8–29.6 ml) of syrup after the liquid is fully reduced.  Remove the reduction from the heat as soon as it’s finished. It can burn very easily if it continues being exposed to heat after it has thickened. Drain the contents of the saucepan onto a nonstick baking sheet. Pour in 1-1 ½ cups of salt and fold the salt into the syrup by hand. Spread the salt mixture thin and place the baking sheet in the oven for about 2 hours at 170 °F (76.7 °C). The dried salt can then be broken up and sifted into a different container. That’s all it takes!  Shake or stir the salt periodically to keep it separated. You can produce roughly 1 cup of salt per batch this way.

TL;DR in English: Select a flavored liquid for your salt. Bring the liquid to a boil. Heat the liquid until it forms a reduction. Add the salt and dry the mixture.

Consider whether to use an at-home dye kit or professional dyes, or go to the salon. Carefully consider the costs, processes, and risks involved in each method.  For the salon method, costs and products will vary. Check out websites of local salons or call them for pricing. If possible, talk to a stylist in person. Use the box kit method with caution. Read online reviews to help you choose a box kit that works best on black hair. A popular box kit is L’Oréal Paris Preference Les Blondissimes LB01: Extra Light Ash Blonde. It won’t dye your hair platinum, but may get you down to an ashy blonde in one go.  Use professional-quality products, if possible. Some professional companies require a cosmetology license in order to make a purchase, so keep that in mind. Regardless of which method you choose, it will likely take multiple bleachings to achieve the gray tone that you want. Take the time and expense (i.e. multiple salon visits, multiple purchases of dye kits or professional products) into consideration before you decide. In the weeks or months leading up to the bleaching, avoid using harsh hair products and heat styling tools on your hair. If your hair feels damaged, do weekly deep-conditioning masks until it feels healthy enough to be bleached.  Use good-quality shampoos and conditioners to moisturize your hair without adding buildup or stripping your hair of its natural oils. Look for low pH, oils (argan, avocado, olive), glycerin, glyceryl stearate, propylene glycol, sodium lactate, sodium PCA, and alcohols that start with “c” or “s.”  Avoid strongly fragranced products, alcohols that begin with “prop,” sulfates, and any products that claim to add volume. Cream developer reacts with the powder to bleach your hair. It comes in different volumes ranging from 10 (weakest) to 40 (strongest). The higher the volume, the quicker it will turn your hair blonde, but also the more damaging it will be. Most stylists recommend using 10-volume or 20-volume. A 20-volume developer is your safest bet for effectiveness and...

Brushing and flossing each day as well as after meals may promote the health of your oral cavity. A clean environment may prevent cavities, infections, and stains. Brush and floss after meals if you are able. If you have food or other debris lingering in your teeth, it can promote infection and decay. Chewing a piece of gum may help minimize this risk if you don't have a toothbrush available. Foods and drinks containing sugar or acid can contribute to oral decay, and watching your intake can help maintain your oral health. Cleaning your teeth after consuming these items may minimize your risk of tooth decay and infection.  A healthy and well-balanced diet of lean protein, fruits and vegetables, and legumes can promote your overall well-being, including oral health. Raw fruits and vegetables are best. Raw fruits and vegetables stimulate your gums and your teeth providing good blood circulation which prevents decay, gum disease or even periodontitis. Also, stick to whole grain bread and avoid sugary foods to reduce the amount of acids. Some otherwise healthy foods are acidic. This includes citrus fruits and wine. Continue to enjoy these foods and beverages, but reduce how much you consume and consider brushing your teeth 30 minutes after you're done to prevent enamel loss. Some examples of sugary and acidic foods and beverages of which to steer clear are soft drinks, sweets, candies, and wine. Mouthwashes and toothpastes that have alcohol may damage your enamel and overall oral health. Use toothpastes or mouthwashes that have no alcohol to minimize your risk for these problems. If you clench and grind your teeth, you may damage your teeth and mouth. If you're a tooth-grinder, talk to your dentist about wearing a mouth guard.

A quick search of the tire’s make and model should turn up everything potential buyers will want to know. You can also scan each of your tires for its tire identification number, which will reveal its age, size, and the place it was manufactured.  Tire identification numbers can be found along the sidewall of the tire next to the rim. They most often begin with the letters “DOT,” followed by a series of other numbers and letters.  Doing your homework will also help you avoid listing tires that have been recalled for safety concerns. Get a few shots of the tires from multiple angles, including top-down and side views and a closeup of the tread. Detailed images will give bidders a better idea of what kind of shape the tires are in. Don’t forget to show any cracks, dings, or worn spots, as well.  Use a powerful camera, like a current generation smartphone or photography camera, to photograph your tire collection. Otherwise, your shots may come out blurry or pixelated.  The more pictures you upload, the more secure the buyer will feel with their purchase. The tires sold through most e-commerce website typically fall under one of several categories—eBay, for instance, groups listings by New, Retread, Used, and Damaged. In order for your listing to be as accurate as possible, you'll first need to examine the tires closely and thoroughly to determine the kind of shape they're in.  New tires are still in the condition they were in when they left the factory, and have seen no use. Retread tires are those that have had the tread removed and replaced professionally. These tend to be significantly cheaper than brand new tires. Used tires have seen some mileage, but not enough to cause significant wear and tear. In order to be accepted, they must have at least 5⁄32 inch (0.40 cm) of the original tread remaining. Damaged tires are those that exhibit small holes, cracks, patches, and other imperfections. These are usually not functional, and may require repairs before they can be used. Even the most severely worn tires must...

The best speeches are those that engage the audience with an interesting, relevant topic. Preparation will depend, to some extent, on whether your child has been assigned a specific topic or gets to choose one.  If your child has been assigned a specific topic already, ask what he or she knows about that subject. If this knowledge is lacking, point your child toward books, articles, websites, or other sources of information. Otherwise, simply talk about how your child might elaborate on the topic at hand. If your child gets to select the subject, brainstorm together about possible topics. Decide on something appropriate to the assignment and interesting to your child. Your child should pitch his or her speech to the particular audience: are they students, adults, or both? The content and tone of the speech should reflect the audience and the occasion. Your child’s assignment may vary, but in general, a speech should have an introduction, a developed and persuasive middle, and a conclusion. Your child should include both facts and opinions. After you’ve chosen a theme, your child should write a rough draft of the speech. You can then check the draft, point out any major problems, and make suggestions for improvement. Your child should revise his or her speech, using your suggestions for guidance. Teach your child how important this step is: the best writers and the best public speakers all draft, revise, and revise again. Your child’s speech will be clearer and more effective with a few pictures, diagrams, or slides. Remind your child to select these visual aids carefully, choosing relevant images that will interest the audience. You can also point out, if your child is nervous, that good visual aids will take the audience members’ eyes off the child. They will be looking at the images instead. Whether or not your child uses visual aids, a few note cards can provide some security against forgetting parts of the speech. Have your child jot down the basic structure of the speech, plus any parts he or she is...

Savings bonds are designed for two purposes: to give Americans an easy, cheap, and reliable way to build wealth and to service the government's financing needs. They can be purchased in denominations as low as $25 and can be held for up to 30 years. Upon maturity, they provide a reliable payout of their face value. Savings bonds are considered to be one of the safest investments.  Earnings from savings bonds are not subject to state and local taxes.  Bonds purchased after 1989 may qualify for an education tax exclusion. In this case, earnings on qualifying bonds used for your child's education are tax-free. However, this is subject to restrictions and qualification. See the Treasury Direct website for details. The two types, or series, of savings bonds are mostly similar, but differ in a few key ways. EE Bonds are no longer sold as paper bonds and earn interest at a fixed rate (since 2005). I Bonds are only available for purchase as paper bonds with your IRS tax refund. Otherwise they must be purchased electronically on the Treasury Direct website. They earn a "composite" interest rate that fluctuates with inflation. Both bonds:  Are purchased at face value. A $100 bond costs $100. Are available in non-standard denominations to the penny. For example, you can buy a $28.73 savings bond. Limit buyers to $10,000 in savings bond purchases each year. Can be redeemed after a year. Carry a penalty if redeemed in under five years — three months of interest will be withheld. Earn interest monthly. Electronic savings bonds are only available through Treasurydirect.gov. They can be purchased by inputting your bank account information and personal information in the appropriate fields. You can buy one bond, several bonds at once, or schedule future purchases. This method requires no paperwork. Paper I Bonds can be purchased using your tax refund. Investments typically display a positive relationship between returns and risk. That is, low-risk investments have low returns and high-risk investments have higher returns....

If you are living alone this is easiest. Just don't buy it! Don't carry spare cash for snacking when out, and don't even look at the section in the supermarket. This makes it so much easier. If you live with other people, just don't be around them when they start to eat tempting food. Easy! When you crave something that is out on the counter or near by, just put in away in the cabinet where you cannot see it. If you're trying to kick a habit, then there must be a reason. Use that reason to keep inspiring you to not give in. Do you feel better? Do you feel more energized? Are you losing weight? These good things will work as incentives to keep it up. You're more likely to add tempting unhealthy foods to the basket when you're hungry. You can even carry around alternatives to help if you get a craving. A low calorie or sugar free alternative is gum!  Not only does it come in many flavors, but it can keep you preoccupied for hours. An apple is also handy to munch on to keep you busy - even better! This will just make you less hungry, and gives you plenty of energy that you may rely on your food addiction for. The food you eat in the morning will most likely be burned off by the end of the day, so eat a nice breakfast so that you don't get as hungry later in the day.

TL;DR in English: Take yourself away from the food. Put it away. Think about all of the negatives involved. Be aware of the benefits. Do not shop when you're hungry. Eat alternatives. Drink lots of water. Eat a healthy breakfast every morning.

These could be signs of the infection or other problems, but they are a potential warning.  Increased occurrences of nausea and/or diarrhea could be symptoms of dwarf tapeworm infection. You may also experience abdominal pain along with the upset stomach. The severity of your symptoms could vary greatly. Duration of these symptoms could be from a few days to intermittently over years. This too can be a sign of the tapeworm infection or other problems.  As this is not as an immediate symptom as nausea or diarrhea, you may want to take a few days to make sure this is occurring. Weight loss is rarely an occurrence with dwarf tapeworm infection.  See if you are turning away even your favorite foods. There is a risk of vitamin deficiency and body chemistry imbalance with this, so consult your doctor if it persists. While you cannot feel the worm inside you, the subsequent infection can induce pain..  If the pain is intense, see a doctor immediately in case it is a symptom of something else. This pain could vary in intensity from and duration from immediately of a few days to on and off for years depending on the persistence of infection. If you can identify the pain as acute (sharp and intense) and/or chronic (frequent occurrence)--this may help your doctor's diagnosis.  The pain's location may not situate itself in any one location in the abdominal area. Similar to the other conditions, it could be a symptom of the tapeworm infection, or other problems. This could be a sign of localized infection and irritation and it is most common in young children.  The irritation could also vary in intensity and duration depending on the timeline of the infection. A rash or physical blemish is not typically associated with this irritation, though you may risk inflicting such harm if you scratch too much. This could be a sign of a more severe infection and this symptom is also seen in young children more often.  If you feel the headache in conjunction with the other symptoms, this too could be signs of other illness--but the...

TL;DR in English: Make a note of increased upset stomach. Check if you have a loss of appetite. Feel if you have any abdominal pain. Be aware of any itches around the anal region. Determine if you have intense headaches. Pay attention to loss of sleep.

Dried figs can be eaten plain, just like raisins or other dried fruits. This is one of the simplest ways to enjoy the fruit as a snack. When using dried figs for recipes, you may find it beneficial to rehydrate them so that they become juicier and plumper.  You can soak dried figs in water or fruit juice overnight. A more thorough method of rehydrating figs is to simmer them for several minutes in water or fruit juice. When using either method, add just enough liquid to cover the layer of figs. Both dried and rehydrated figs can be used in baked good recipes.  Gravitate toward breads, cakes, muffins, and cookies over pies and tarts. Mix the dried figs into the batter of these flour-based baked goods before baking. Replace other dried fruits with dried figs. Instead of making oatmeal raisin cookies, make oatmeal fig cookies. Instead of adding dried tart cherries to a muffin batter, add dried figs. Another simple way to enjoy dried figs is to simply sprinkle a few over hot breakfast cereal. The figs will add a mildly sweet boost of flavor. For a light lunch, you could mix a handful of dried figs into a serving of cottage cheese or yogurt. These rich, tangy dairy products complement the taste of figs rather well.

TL;DR in English: Enjoy as is. Rehydrate the figs. Use in baked goods. Add to oatmeal or porridge. Stir some into cottage cheese or yogurt.

While everyone relaxes differently, find something that works for you. You may try simply visualizing a calming scene, releasing tension in your muscles, practicing breathing, or meditation. Try to work on a relaxation technique that can be done anywhere at anytime. This way, when you encounter your phobia, you can overcome your fear. Be as detailed as possible and include all types of experiences, from the mildly anxious to terrifying. This will help you tackle your fear at a variety of levels. For example, if you are afraid of heights, you might encounter them in the following situations: hiking on a mountain, flying in an air plane, and going up a sky scraper in an elevator.  After compiling the list, you may notice similar variables between certain types of fear. For example, you may find that you have a terrifying reaction to flying and riding in an elevator. You may realize that both involve small spaces. If you have multiple phobias, such as snakes, spiders, and clowns, choose one to start with. It is easier to tackle one phobia at a time. Order your list of situations by how anxious or fearful they make you. Start your list with the situations that only make you mildly anxious or tense. Place the scariest situations towards the end of your list. For example, if you are afraid of dogs, your list might start off with simply looking at a picture of a dog, and progress to seeing a dog outside your window, across the street, and end with petting a large dog off its leash. Your list may not be very long or it can be incredibly lengthy. What matters is that you have a guide to deal with your phobia. You should start by visualizing the least upsetting item. Practice relaxing until you feel your muscles lose their tension. Once you've done this for a minute, take a break and repeat the exercise a few more times. Once you have mastered an item, move on to the next one until you've reached your most feared situation. Some items might take a lot longer to master than others. For example, you might get over...

TL;DR in English: Enter the exercise feeling relaxed. Write down situations where you encounter your phobia. Rank your situations. Imagine the first item on your list. Gradually work through your list. Seek out your situations in reality. Continue to confront your fear. Reward yourself for a job well done.

Draw attention to your waist by wearing belts that emphasize and nip in your middle. They can be wide, skinny, jeweled, braided -- whatever! Wear them over dresses, long tops and even winter coats to get an hourglass figure which gives the illusion of a smaller waist. A-line dresses are those which are tight at the hips, then flare out towards the hem, giving the illusion of a smaller waist. They are very flattering on almost every body shape, as they emphasize the waist, while skimming over any imperfections around the hips and thighs. Low-rise jeans can be very unflattering to anyone who carries even a little weight around their middle, as they create the dreaded "muffin top" effect. High waisted jeans are much more forgiving as they cover up any excess fat around the hips, and draw attention to the waist. Worn with a tucked-in shirt, these type of jeans can be very flattering indeed. Picking the right foundation garments can greatly reduce your waistline.  Try "shapewear". Most quality lingerie stores carry lines of undergarments that are designed to smooth and support your figure. Corsets. Worn under gowns as a figure enhancing item of lingerie in centuries gone by, the corset has gained renewed popularity recently for providing an effortlessly sexy silhouette, whether under other clothes or on its own. Steel-boned corsets (not as painful as they sound - promise!) do the best job of cinching in your waist, and can actually permanently reduce the size of your waist with prolonged wear!

There are a number of techniques that can help you cope with your anxiety. One is problem solving. When you are confronted with an anxiety-inducing problem, come up with a plan for solving it, and then implement that plan. Afterwards, consider how well the plan worked. Another skill that helps with anxiety is mindfulness. When you are feeling anxious, focus on the sensations associated with your anxiety instead of trying to push them away. This can help you become more accepting of your anxiety, rather than letting it overwhelm you. The purpose for this is twofold. First, you'll no longer be embarrassed by your secret fear. This will help you start to deal with the anxiety. Second, you'll be able to ask others for help, especially when you get stuck. Consider attending a self-help group for people facing similar fears. You might benefit from talking with and supporting others experiencing the same challenges you are. Sometimes, it is easier to face your fears knowing that you are not the only one. Your family and friends may not understand what you are going through, but the people in the self-help group may. The people in that group may also offer up advice on how they managed or overcame their phobias. Some of that advice might work for you as well. Different people have different learning methods. Some people learn better through experiences, while others must read and analyze the material. Some books might even focus on certain types of phobias. Some people might need additional help overcoming their phobias, especially if it that gets in the way of their daily lives. For example, an extreme fear of open spaces or talking to people, might prevent someone from going out to a store and buying food and other necessities. This can be especially helpful when you are trying to face your phobia. Consider using any of the following essential oil: bergamot, chamomile, jasmine, lavender, or ylang ylang. Here are some ways in which you can use essential oils:  Mix a few drops of essential oil into a carrier oil,...

TL;DR in English: Develop anxiety management skills. Talk to a friend, family member, or someone you trust about your phobia. Try joining a self-help group. Read a self-help book. Consider seeking help from a psychologist. Use essential oils to reduce stress, tension, and create a feeling of calm. Recite a mantra. Get a massage.

Environmental activists have to keep their minds sharp and encourage others to join them. Convincing knowledge and persuasive rhetoric are both critical to calling people to join in conservation efforts. Try to read environmental publications to keep up with relevant news, then share it with others. Post it to social media, your blog, or find other ways to tell people you know.  Reading about social relations, industrial infrastructure such as oil refineries, and alternatives to the present way of living are always helpful.

Every year countless amounts of used products go into landfills or end up in the environment. That doesn’t even include the energy sources used to make the items. Instead of putting everything in the trash, take your paper products, metal cans, glass, and other products to a recycling facility.  Many garbage removal services also offer recycling programs. Contact them for more information about how to participate. Another way to recycle is to buy products made from recycled materials. Also, get used products from secondhand stores instead of buying new. Farm animals take up a lot of resources and produce a lot of waste.

Estrogen is metabolized and filtered by the liver, but high levels of alcohol can decrease liver function. When liver function decreases, estrogen levels can increase.[citation needed]  If you have borderline high estrogen levels, limit your alcohol consumption to one glass per day or less. If you are already experiencing estrogen dominance, however, cut alcohol out of your diet completely. Alcohol contains estrogen-like substances (phytoestrogens) derived from the plants that are used to make the alcohol.  Such substances have been found to act as estrogens in mice and humans. Roughly 80 percent of estrogens acquired through diet come from cow's milk and dairy products made with cow's milk.[citation needed] Opt for non-dairy milk products, like almond milk or rice milk, instead.  Cows are often milked during pregnancy, when their estrogen levels are highest, which is why cow's milk can contain such high doses of estrogen. When you do consume dairy, choose helpful dairy sources. Yogurt can be especially beneficial since it contains probiotics. Caffeine, fat, and sugar can all increase estrogen levels in the body, so you should limit these foods as much as possible. For instance, even one cup of regular coffee can increase estrogen levels.[citation needed] Drinking up to four cups a day can raise your estrogen levels by as much as 70 percent.[citation needed] Soy contains plant compounds called "isoflavones" that mimic estrogen, so if you have high estrogen levels in your body, consuming unfermented soy can aggravate the estrogen's effects. Unfermented soy products include tofu and soy milk. Red meat can contain hormone additives, and these additives can boost estrogen levels in your body or behave like estrogen in the body.[citation needed] When you do eat meat, look for meat labeled as “organic” or “natural.” Consuming this meat will still cause you to consume the estrogen left over from the animal's natural stores, but you will not consume any abnormally excessive amounts of estrogen this way.

TL;DR in English: Consume less alcohol. Limit your dairy intake. Cut down on junk food. Avoid unfermented soy products. Consume less red meat.

If bacteria in your urethra and bladder are causing an infection, you'll begin to experience pain or difficulty urinating. You might feel like you frequently need to urinate, but little or no urine comes out. Other signs of a urinary tract infection (UTI) include:  Burning sensation when you urinate Pain or aching in your abdomen Cloudy, unusually colored (dark yellow or greenish), or smelly urine Feeling tired or sick If you've had signs of a UTI for several days or weeks without getting treatment, the infection can travel to your kidneys.

The doctor may do a rectal exam, if they believe your prostate could be infected. The doctor may do a pelvic exam if there is a discharge coming from your vagina that has an odor. This will help them to rule out a cervical infection.  If you've had several UTIs or a complicated infection, the doctor might order images of your urinary tract to rule out kidney stones or blockages. Your doctor will prescribe antibiotics to treat the bacteria causing your UTI. Follow the dosing instructions and don't stop taking the medication even once your symptoms start to improve. It's important to take the full course so the bacteria doesn't return.  Ask your doctor about any side effects of the antibiotics and whether you should avoid drinking alcohol during treatment. If you have a history of vaginitis, ask your doctor about yeast infection prevention with a combination of antibiotics and antifungal medication. You should begin feeling relief after taking antibiotics...

Minor hyperhidrosis can often be treated using over the counter antiperspirant deodorants.  Deodorants that say “antiperspirant” on the label are engineered to prevent your body from producing sweat and can be effective if your sweating issues are manageable.  Antiperspirant deodorants contain aluminum based compounds that temporarily block sweat producing pores, reducing the amount of sweat that leaves your skin. Most antiperspirants also help manage the smell created by bacteria in your sweat, reducing issues with body odor. Feet are a common focal point for people with primary hyperhidrosis, and the excess sweating on your feet can cause both odor and medical complications for your feet.

If you are exercising make sure that you bring extra clothes.  Avoid wearing heavy clothes that trap sweat.

TL;DR in English: Use an antiperspirant. Change your shoes and socks often. Maintain good hygiene habits.

When you walk away from a bully, you show that that person doesn’t have control over your actions or emotions. Engaging the person means you are meeting him or her on  the same level. You don’t need to engage this person, and there’s no use putting any of your energy into the situation. Remember that you choose your response. Is it worth engaging with this person? It may be better to just walk away and not even bother. If someone is harassing you or egging you on,  calmly tell this person that you are not interested in engaging with him or her. Remember the person can only bully you if you give him or her power over your emotions. Once you no longer seem to care what this person thinks, he or she may become bored or disinterested.  If the person persists, ignore the person. Say, “I don’t want to talk to you” or “This doesn’t interest me.” Remember that you have control over how (or if) you react. If it isn’t worth your time, say so. Ask yourself, “Will I remember this situation in 1 year? What about 5 years? Will this affect my life then?” If not, determine to spend your energy and time elsewhere. Also ask yourself if these are people that will continue to be in your life for a long time. If you have plans to go to college or move, it’s likely these people will be gone from your life soon enough. If someone is being mean to you, respond with a joke or with some humor. Humor completely disarms someone trying to hurt you, and he or she may be too surprised to know how to respond. When you use humor, it shows that this person has no control over you.  If a mean person targets you and you respond with a joke, it’s likely he or she will lose interest in trying to hurt you. If someone is making fun of your shoe size, say, “You’re probably right. I tried out for the Lord of the Rings but I guess my feet weren’t hairy enough.”
